It's only with you
"let's go to mom's house to play." Shen Junquan said.
The idea was a whim, but he didn't go back for a long time.
The proposal of returning to he's old house is precisely because Shen Junquan misses he Xinying, and Xiaochen is also curious about it.
So, Shen Junquan packed some simple luggage overnight, and took the old housekeeper and Xiaochen back to the old house of he family.
He is already very familiar with this place. Whenever he misses he Xinying, it seems that as soon as he comes back here, he can feel inexplicable stability.
It seems that it has become a habit for him to ease his missing when he Xinying is away
.
"Xiaochen, you know, this is the place where my mother lived when she was young."
Shen Junquan opened the door and explained to Xiaochen.
"Xiaochen has been here." Xiaochen still has an impression of the house, but when she heard that it was the place where her mother lived when she was young, her big eyes were full of curiosity.
"Yes, Xiaochen has been here." Pushing open the bedroom door, Shen Junquan frowned at the dust all over the room.
I can't blame the servants. He told them not to enter he Xinying's room without his permission.
"Let's clean up tomorrow morning, shall we?" Shen Junquan had a whim.
"That's great. Xiaochen likes to clean up." Children like to work because it makes them feel like adults.
"Let's go to bed first, and we'll clean it up in the morning." Shen Junquan has skillfully laid the quilt while speaking.
As soon as he turned his head, he caught sight of the old housekeeper waiting outside the door. He was a little embarrassed and said, "you Go and have a rest first. "
"Ah." The old housekeeper nodded, turned and walked towards his bedroom, thinking as he walked. Xiaochen seemed to have changed the tone of Mr. Shen's speech.
The next morning, Shen Junquan took Xiaochen to clean.
When it comes to cleaning, Xiaochen doesn't have much energy, so Shen Junquan arranges him to clean the table. Looking at his little hand with a big cloth, Shen Junquan feels more and more lovely.
Because Xiaochen is a child, the speed of cleaning has slowed down.
Fortunately, Shen Junquan didn't care. Anyway, he just wanted to have a relatively quiet time alone.
"Does mom really live here all the time?" Wiping, Xiaochen couldn't help asking.
This is the question he always wanted to ask yesterday, and there are many more questions he wanted to ask.
"Yes, mother sleeps in this room from birth to marriage." Shen Junquan answered patiently.
"And you? Living with mom, too? " Xiaochen asked naively.
He doesn't have a definite idea of marriage, and he doesn't know it's something he can only do when he grows up.
Shen Junquan was amused by him. After a while, he shook his head and said, "no, my uncle lived with my mother when he grew up, but we have always been classmates." "Classmate? Like me and Xiaotong? " Xiao Chen asked again.
"You can say that, too." When Shen Junquan picks him up every day, there is always a pretty little girl around him. It must be what he called Xiaotong.
Xiaochen thought about it, and asked with some doubts: "is it possible for students to get married when they grow up? Will Xiaotong and I get married? "
This Shen Junquan didn't expect that there was a little deviation in his understanding direction, but he patiently told Xiaochen: "this is not necessarily. Your mother and I were classmates for many years, and then we got married. It's fate. Not every pair of boys and girls has fate. "
After the popularization of science for children, Shen Junquan's face flashed a moment of loss.
No matter when, childhood sweetheart will always be regarded as the representative of "predestination", but he and he Xinying clearly have predestination, but he did not cherish it.
"Oh..." Xiaochen nodded his head, thought about it carefully, and once again threw out the ultimate question.
"Is uncle Shen my father? I asked my mother last time, but she wouldn't say
Thinking of that question, Xiaochen was a little timid. He remembered that his mother seemed a little angry at that time.
"Would Xiao Chen like me to be your father?" Shen Junquan pauses and asks again.
He also asked last time, but it seemed to be over in the end.
This time, he has completely regarded Xiaochen as his own child. He has to confirm it again, but he can only ask like this.
He can't tell Xiaochen about it very clearly, because he Xinying is just his adoptive mother, but he won't understand or accept it.
Therefore, even if he is willing to be Xiaochen's father, Xiaochen is also willing to be his son. He can't be absolutely sure that he is the biological father. He has to think of a suitable saying.
"Xiaochen would like to." Xiaochen said almost without thinking, "Xiaochen likes uncle Shen very much.""But doesn't Xiao Chen already have a father?" Shen Junquan thought of Huo jingnian with a dim look, "shall I be your dry father?"
Although reluctant, he could not change his child's impression of Huo jingnian at once.
But what he didn't expect was that Xiaochen shook his head and said, "father Huo is not my father. I know he didn't sleep with his mother."
He heard Xiaotong say that there will be no baby if it is not like this.
Shen Junquan said unexpectedly, "really?"
Children don't lie. What this means is that Huo jingnian and he Xinying don't cross the distance?
Shen Junquan is a little pleased with the truth.
"Really." Xiaochen blinked, "Dad, I have a secret I always want to tell you."
This is a natural call from my father. It seems that Xiaochen has long wanted to call like this.
"What's the secret?" There was no time to be happy, and Shen Junquan was surprised again.
"Mom prefers to stay with you." Xiaochen's words are amazing. Shen Junquan couldn't help but open his eyes: "mom told you?"
"Mom didn't tell me." Xiaochen shook his head. "But every time my mother sees you, she will look at you secretly. But when his father came, he never looked at him secretly. And they also quarrel, although you also quarrel, but mom must like you... "
Shen Junquan listens to Xiaochen's words, but his incoherent children's words make his eyes gradually wet.
Even children can see that she really likes herself. Why was she so dull in those years?
"Dad knows." Shen Junquan picked up Xiaochen and said, "let's wait for mom to come back."
"Well!" Xiao Chen nodded his head forcefully.
When mom comes back, you'll have mom and Dad, right?
Shen Junquan was silent.
He Xinying, at the moment, I really hope you can come back soon.
Because this family is complete with you.
