Seeing her expression of joy, Zhou Junyun felt lost. He came straight to the window and looked at the scene in the courtyard. It was summer now, and the vines of grapes climbed directly over the windowsill, looking lively. He was silent for a moment. "You and your child are only separated for seven months, but my child and I have missed 25 years." There was loneliness and sigh in his voice, "Mengyao, can you understand my mood?"
Chu Mengyao was stunned, looking at his lonely figure, standing alone in the window, she could not help feeling. I thought that I would be very happy to see Xiaoyi soon. I didn't think that he was her father and had been separated from her for many years. They were related by blood. She only thought that she was going to see her son, but she didn't think about his feelings at all.
Thinking of this, Chu Mengyao felt tight in her heart and her eyes were red. She went to Zhou Junyun, put her arm on him, lowered her eyelids, and said, "sorry, Dad!"
She took the initiative to approach, very good to shorten the distance between each other, Zhou Junyun's heart a little excited, his face is a smile, "Mengyao, what I want to tell you is that I look at you in the same mood as you now." And this kind of mood will only be more, absolutely not less, "I really need to say sorry for that person, it's me."
At that time, he trusted his aunt too much, and had no doubt at all. If he has the slightest doubt to trace, then these years, the three members of their family will not separate, this is his most regretful thing, "if time can go back, I really hope I can see you born, grow up, can watch you grow up from a babbling child into a graceful girl, I want to accompany you through these 25 years."
"Daddy Chu Mengyao's eyes are red.
Zhou Junyun's eyes were moist and he took her hand.
His hands have a thick cocoon, very warm and thick, including a thick father's love, which makes Chu Mengyao feel very much, father and daughter did not speak, silent. Although no one spoke at the moment, it was better than a lot of words. For this strange place, Chu Mengyao is not so resistant. The place with her father is her warm home.
Many times before, Zhou Junyun was standing alone in this window, looking at the familiar scenery outside the window and missing the people he loved. But in the end, he was alone and dejected. But now he had his own daughter beside him, which made his heart very complicated. Looking at the grapevine outside the window, he said with a smile: "the grapevine is planted by your grandfather himself. It matures from January to August every year. It tastes very good."
Looking at the vines in the yard, Chu Mengyao laughed, "Dad, is your little one? The grapes are picked and eaten before they are ripe."
Zhou Junyun laughed, "isn't it, you know this kind of thing?"
Chu Mengyao also laughed, "before in the orphanage, the grapes just bear out, there is no sour, everyone secretly picked it down, until the time can eat, only the grape rack."
Thinking that she had been in the orphanage before, Zhou Junyun felt sad.
"Everyone's experience is different, no matter what it is, it can help people grow faster." Chu Mengyao found that his mood was a little low, comforted and said: "just like me, if I had not been in the orphanage, how could I know that life is not easy!"
Seeing her thinking so open, Zhou Junyun has some sidelights. His daughter should be so generous.
"Dad, let me ask you something. When you were a child, did you ever pick grapes that were not ripe? " Chu Mengyao looked up at him and said playfully.
Although he was embarrassed, Zhou Junyun nodded his head,
"what's the taste of it?" Chu Mengyao joked, "is it sour or astringent?"
"Both." Zhou Junyun thought for a moment and replied.
Chu Mengyao laughs. It seems that even big people are frivolous when they are young. She asks curiously, "what if they are found by adults?"
This is really embarrassing, but Zhou Junyun is willing to share this with his daughter, "of course, it depends on who picked the grapes."
In those years, there was a lack of material. Many children in the Zhou family were greedy for the grape tree. But Zhou's mother wanted to use it to make wine. She must be very strict about it. "If your uncles were, they would be beaten. But if you were your aunt, you would be scolded.
The parents of the Zhou family are very fond of their daughter. When they married Zhou Yalan to Qi fangsu, they had a very careful consideration.
"What if you picked it?" Chu Mengyao asked softly.
"Me?"
Chu Mengyao chuckled, "Dad, didn't you just say you picked it?" Her heart is very curious, "you will be scolded or get the board?"
"None of this will happen." Zhou Junyun was lost in thought.
"Why?" Chu Mengyao asked curiously.
Zhou Junyun was silent for a while. "I'll say it's what your mother wants to eat."Chu Mengyao didn't think of it at all. She said with a dumb smile, "I really didn't think that you would blame my mother for all this, Dad. Do you mean you want my mother to be scolded for you?"
"How can it be? Your grandparents love your mother the most. They don't talk about her at all."
Chu Mengyao was stunned. "If they said that, wouldn't they be punished?"
"They don't dare to say that. If they do, they will get worse." Zhou Junyun said.
Chu Mengyao didn't understand, "why do you say that?"
"Because they're obviously lying. If your mother wants to eat, she'll let me help her." Zhou Junyun said with a smile.
Chu Mengyao suddenly understood that there were many feelings in his words that could not be directly expressed. She said with a smile, "I understand that you and my mother are childhood sweethearts. At that time, the elders had already seen it."
When his daughter joked, Zhou Junyun didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he thought of the good times. He chuckled, "do you even know such things?"
"My mom told me." Chu Mengyao said frankly.
Speaking of Luna, Zhou Junyun was stunned. He was silent. After a while, he asked, "did your mother say anything else?"
"She said that you used to be childhood sweethearts. When you grew up, you naturally got together. She married you when she was 20 years old, but you were separated because of some misunderstanding." Chu Mengyao looks at him quietly.
Their feelings were summed up in a few simple words by their daughter. He said with a wry smile, "I know that. She has been alone all these years." He was full of guilt.
Chu Mengyao whispered, "but you still love her, don't you?"
Zhou Junyun was embarrassed. "Do you know this kind of thing?"
"Of course." Chu Mengyao winked playfully, "I know a lot of things." She said directly, "I live in the room my mother used to live in, right?"
When Zhou Junyun heard her saying this, he laughed awkwardly, "did you guess this?"
"Where should I guess?" Chu Mengyao said with a smile.
Zhou Junyun is dumb. Her daughter is really a sensitive person. She is very similar to Luna. "You are really like your mother."
"It's because I'm like my mother that you keep helping me!" Asked Chu Mengyao.
Zhou Junyun pursed his lips tightly. "Why do you say that?"
"At the beginning, you asked Uncle dufei to help me out in qingkong gallery." Chu Mengyao firmly said that her memory has always been very good, and immediately recognized Du Fei. At the beginning, I just thought that Du Fei appeared suddenly, and even suspected that Du Fei's purpose was not pure. But now I think of it, everything has the most reasonable explanation.
Zhou Junyun raised his eyebrows and laughed, neither admitting nor denying.
"And at that time, you helped me fight for Martha's concert, right?" Chu Mengyao said in a low voice, these things, as long as you think about it, you can understand that Martha is well-known in the world. She is just a very ordinary person. If she can become a guest at her concert, there must be a noble person behind her. "You asked Lu Yuancheng to help me arrange other performances..."
Seeing his daughter's serious analysis there, Zhou Junyun felt very soft and happy. "You are very smart."
"Of course." Chu Mengyao is not modest at all. She looks up at him and says with a smile, "I have inherited the excellent genes of you and mom. I'm sure I won't be stupid!"
"Are you still proud?" Zhou Junyun said with a smile.
"Of course!" Chu Mengyao holds his arm. Now she has a father and a mother. She feels very happy. Then she says frankly, "it was my mother who convinced me to live here."
Zhou Junyun felt a little surprised.
"Mom said," let me accompany you more. " Mengyao said, "she said, these years are not easy for you." She also has some regrets in her heart. Her parents love each other so much, but they can't be together. It's really a pity.
Zhou Junyun felt warm in his heart. His eyes were red and his voice was low. He firmly said, "Mengyao, I will try my best to make our family complete."
But thinking of Luna's present identity, Chu Mengyao lowered her head somewhat sadly. She knew that they could not be together again, but she could not bear to pierce his expectations. She also didn't feel some chagrin, really shouldn't mention Luna in front of Zhou Junyun, she really didn't want to see him lost in the future.
This dialogue has made the distance between them much closer.
