The villa is quiet, without the noise and bustle of the past. Aunt Xu told us that she had dismissed many servants, leaving only three servants. All three of them have been in the Huo family for many years. Aunt Xu's hometown is also the most trusted person of the master's wife. They don't want to leave when the Huo family is in trouble. They have deep feelings for master Huo.
Huo Zhi into the master bedroom, saw his mother Zhuang Shenglan half lying in bed, eyes slightly closed, face than before a lot of ruddy.
"Mom, are you better?" It's just like when a primary school student asks her teacher in class, she can't answer the questions she is asked. Huo Zhi is very timid. From childhood to adulthood, she is always embarrassed and nervous when she sees her mother. It's hard to correct her habit of many years.
For a long time, Zhuang Shenglan does not speak, does not open her eyes, Huo Zhi more nervous, is the mother did not hear? Is your voice too small?
People start to think when they can't get a response. She is no exception. According to her own way of thinking, she takes a step forward and timidly says, "Mom, are you listening to me? Mom - "
" I'm not dead, what do you do so loud? You are looking forward to my early death. This family is yours to bully your sister, aren't you? "
Huo Zhi was stunned and repeatedly explained: "it's not such a mother, it's not like this -"
"it's not like that? My own father can plot secretly. What else can I be in your eyes as a mother? Yuxiu, what a sin. How can you give birth to a daughter like this? It's not as good as pigs and dogs to sell her own father for a man. "
Zhuang Shenglan is so angry that she picks up the pillow and throws it. Fortunately, Huo Zhi avoids it in time. The vase behind her suffers. It falls down from the table and smashes to the ground.
"Madam, it's important to calm down. Now is not the time to complain. Today, the eldest lady came back to discuss with her wife about going to Nancheng police station tomorrow. Madam, you see --"
aunt Xu urged Zhuang Shenglan to take the second pillow in her hand.
Zhuang Shenglan eased down and said, "I'm going to meet your father tomorrow. You come to meet me!" Finish saying then lie down, back toward Huo Zhi, the remaining anger didn't disappear.
"OK, mom, take a rest. I'll pick you up at six tomorrow morning! Let's go to see Dad together. "
Standing in the same place, Huo Zhi doesn't know whether to go in or out. She leaves without her mother's permission. Her mother will be angry. She will continue to stay. She is afraid of her mother's reproach. She turns her head and looks at Aunt Xu for help.
"Madam, let the first lady go back first. I'll be on my way early tomorrow morning. Madam, take a rest first. I'll take the first lady back!" Aunt Xu understood and said aloud to the wife lying on her side.
Zhuang Shenglan waves her hand. Aunt Xu winks at Huozhi behind her. Then she dares to leave.
There was a crisp noise between the shoes and the ground. Huo Zhi realized that it was the cackle of her high-heeled shoes. The baby was nearly four months old, and it was time to change into a pair of flat shoes. She was very anxious when she went out this morning, almost fell down, and was still scared.
Touch the belly, slightly raised abdomen, the happiness of being a mother arises spontaneously. Although she is still pregnant, it is of great significance. With a baby, her life is no longer lonely, but recently she is too busy, with a lot of things and worries. Without taking good care of Baobao, Huo Zhi feels guilty.
Huo Zhi even began to imagine that her baby was angry, but she couldn't help laughing. She read the medical books. After more than three months, her baby's brain has developed and formed, and she will think with her mother. Even when her mother is sad, her baby will be sad, her mother is happy, and her baby will be happy.
Hand quietly put on the stomach, repeatedly stroked, the bottom of my heart spontaneously a sense of happiness.
In front is father's Gardenia forest, go and have a look! By the way, help dad take care of Gardenia.
The so-called Gardenia forest is a piece of open space. When I designed the house, my father asked for it alone, and it was a lot colder. Some of the gardenia flowers wilted. In the past, it was my father who took care of them. Gardenia is hard to support. Almost all flower lovers dare not love gardenia. Only my father likes Gardenia most, and the best one is gardenia.
Weeding, soil loosening, water spraying, gardenia favorite water, turn on the tap, automatic sprinkler, slowly spray flowers and leaves, pick up a falling flower on the ground, gently smell, deeply kiss, Qinren fragrance spread.
"Baby, this is your grandfather's favorite Gardenia forest. Isn't it beautiful? It's yellow, white and delicate, isn't it? When my mother was a child, my grandfather was still in front of the gardenia, teaching my mother to sing "Gardenia open and open - are you coming yet?"
Huo Zhi hummed the old song, intoxicated and confused. The childhood was beautiful and innocent. In her memory, she depicted her father's appearance and the beauty of Gardenia.
"Miss!" Behind the aunt Xu's light call.
"Aunt Xu, when did you come? You scared me!" Huo Zhi put down the shovel, rake and gloves in her hand, lifted a wisp of broken hair in front of her forehead, and didn't go behind her ears.
"This piece of Gardenia needs to be taken care of frequently. I think what my father wants to see most when he goes home is the brand-new and exquisite gardenia. My mother doesn't like me to go home often, so I'd like aunt Xu to take care of these baby flowers for me!""Miss, don't worry about what your wife says. Your wife is just that smelly temper. It's not your father's habit. There's never a doorkeeper to talk to. There's no estrangement between mother and daughter in the world. Don't mind!" Aunt Xu is afraid that the fierce behavior of Zhuang Shenglan just makes Huo Zhi sad.
"How can it be that there is no daughter in the world who has a grudge against her mother! Aunt Xu, don't worry. I all know that my mother is worried and blames me - "
" Miss, how can you blame you? It's because the master did something wrong in those years, and it's because his surname is Fang. He's so insidious that he had the idea of Miss Xu, eavesdropping, video, and even they found Qiao Dashan who was involved in the top package case in that year
"What? Qiao Dashan has been away from Qingcheng for many years. Have they found him? "
"Well, listen to the police's description, I'm afraid this time, the master is more or less dangerous!" Aunt Xu sighed to herself, "Oh, by the way, miss, this is the master's change of clothes. I've wrapped them up. Take them!"
"Eh" took the package from Aunt Xu and put it in the bag neatly. Her shaking hand caressed the corner of her coat. Her eyes were wet. She felt the clothes as if she had touched her father. She thought of the past and compared it with the present. Huo Zhi burst into tears.
"Aunt Xu, where's my sister? Where did Qingyan go? " I suddenly remembered that I didn't see my sister today.
"Miss two, I often go out early and come back late. I'm a servant. How can I ask where miss two is going?"
With a long sigh, "the same two sisters, the gap is really big, if the second miss, half of you are good!"
"Does mom know?" Huo Zhi is a little worried about her younger sister. Huo Qingyan has been willful since she was a child. She dares to contradict her parents. She often breaks into some disasters and acts willfully with her mother's protection.
"Don't worry, miss. In the evening, miss two will come back. Now the master's business is a big one. His wife asks for a relationship. No one is willing to be in line with the one who asked the master to do things. There's no comparison. People are really powerful and selfish."
Aunt Xu shook her head. She was full of indignation. She opened her eyes to the Philistines.
"Aunt Xu, you don't have to be sad. You are wise and you don't want to get angry. We have no way to blame others. People go to tea, and the world is so cool - aunt Xu, please take care of your mother and sister more --"
there are lots of fragrance in the Gardenia forest. The two women have talked for a long time. Huo Zhi and aunt Xu can talk about each other very well. She often has the illusion that she is always in front of her eyes Aunt Xu is more like her mother. She can always find the warmth she wants from Aunt Xu.
Reluctant to part with her guilt, Huo Zhi drove back to Xishan villa. Thinking of meeting her father tomorrow, she was in full bloom for a long time.
A night's sleep, sweet as a dream, the dream of her father amiable said: "Huo Zhi, miss your father? Dad, love you very much, love you very much, remember, dad is leaving
A cold sweat, can no longer sleep, from the early morning toss and turn until dawn, want to see my father's idea is more and more strong, all said that the dream is very effective, nightmares at night, palpitation.
