I remembered that one and a half months ago, just after my grandfather's funeral, Lin Wanwan was kicked out by her uncle and aunt who had returned to China. It seemed like a lifetime ago.
The scenes of that day are still vivid in my mind.
Her thoughts gradually drifted to a month and a half ago, when she was at the lowest point in her life.
"Wan, your things have been packed for you. They are all in these three luggage bags. Can you get them to where you live?" Xie Yuanying looked at Lin Wanwan coldly with her brown eyes.
His disdain showed, "Look, you have graduated from college. My family has supported you for so many years without asking you to repay me, but it's time for you to be independent, don't you think?"
"You, are you really going to sell this place? What will you do when you return to China?" Lin Wanwan's heart tightened slightly. This small villa holds all the beautiful memories of her and her grandparents. Is it really impossible to keep it?
Xie Yuanying sneered: "Hey, I'm not going back to China. Your grandparents are gone, so why are you coming back?"
Lin Wanwan lowered her head, feeling as if her heart was turning upside down.
If she sells it, the new owner will definitely replace everything inside and redecorate it without leaving a single thought for her. Even if she can work hard to earn enough money to buy back the house in the future, it won't help.
But what can she do? This is not her house, and she has no decision-making power. Even if her grandfather made a will to leave the house to her when he was dying, so what? Without notarization and paper delivery, there would be no
People will admit it.
As the son, the uncle is the first heir, but the granddaughter is not at all among the legal heirs.
My uncle and aunt have been living in the United States and will not come back for several years. The last time they came back was for my grandma's funeral, and this time it was for my grandpa's funeral.
In addition to the funeral, they also had to get rid of the small double-storey villa that their grandparents had replaced with demolition money and housing. This was where Lin Wanwan had been living since she lost her parents at the age of five.
"Uncle, when are you going back to the United States? I will see you off then." Although Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin have not met Lin Wanwan a few times, they are the sons and daughters-in-law of her grandparents after all, so Lin Wanwan is still willing to maintain her dignity.
It's just that the other party is obviously not willing. Also, for orphans like Lin Wanwan, they are of course afraid of being relied on.
"No, your hard work is the best reward for us. There is no need for you to give it away." Aunt Lin said coldly, while Uncle Lin was chatting enthusiastically with the buyers and agents who were looking at the house, without even looking at it.
Take a look at her.
"Okay." Lin Wanwan smiled sadly, she was alone after all!
As for repayment? She wanted to repay her, but the person she was supposed to repay could no longer wait for her repayment. Why should her aunt, whom she had not seen twice since she was a child, ask her to repay her?
Lin Wanwan lowered her head, put one duffel bag on her shoulder, carried the other two in her hands, and walked out of the community, walking faster and faster.
"What's wrong, little girl, what happened? Don't cry. Tell me something. It will make you feel better if you say it." The online car-hailing driver looked at the crying woman through the rearview mirror many times.
The child finally spoke, interrupting Lin Wanwan's memories at the same time.
Lin Wanwan shed tears, sniffed, and said, "It's okay."
Yes, it’s okay, everything is over. The small villa of her grandparents will really belong to her from now on!
Her childhood and adolescence were there, and most of her growing up years were there.
Back at the rental house, Lin Wanwan happily made an appointment with Lala Lala. The house had only been rented for less than two months, there was nothing at all, and the move went very quickly.
Taking out the key and opening the door of the small villa again, Lin Wanwan was filled with emotion. She took out the portraits of her grandparents from the package, hung them side by side on the wall of the living room again, and stared at them blankly for a long time.
"Grandpa, grandma, you have spirits in heaven. Don't worry, my life will get better and better in the future." Lin Wanwan touched the jade bracelet on her left wrist. Perhaps, this was the escape route left by her grandma.
Next, she looked at the things she had purchased online. The things were sent to the address of the apartment building. They should arrive in the afternoon. She could pick them up when she had time. There was no rush.
After Lin Wanwan put everything away, she briefly cleaned the villa. No one had lived in it for the past two months, and a layer of dust had fallen.
After cleaning, she came to her room. Lin Wanwan closed the curtains and checked that the time was already 12 noon. Then she put her mobile phone on the bedside table, carrying the big cloth bag she had purchased before and took it to the Tang Dynasty, and traveled through time
Time and space returned to the Tang Dynasty.
The surroundings are very quiet, and there is almost no nightlife in the Tang Dynasty town.
Lin Wanwan walked towards the inn carrying a large package wrapped in tablecloth.
In the inn, there was only one candle burning at the bar, where Lin Mengli lay asleep.
When he saw her coming back with a big package that was even bigger than her body, he was surprised. He rubbed his eyes, stepped forward to help, and said, "Wan Niang, why did you come back just now? You are already ugly now. I thought you were here."
What happened? You are going to get something, so you should call me to come with you. It is the middle of the night and you are walking on the road alone as a woman, carrying such a big package. It is both tiring and unsafe."
The ugly hour is around 1-2 am. It was around 7 or 8 pm when she left. It seems that the flow rate of the two time and space is the same, but day and night are reversed. There is a difference of about ten hours between the two.
.
Lin Wanwan smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm used to it. I'm not afraid of being with mountain beasts in the mountains, so why should I be afraid of people?"
Lin Mengli said: "Of course, humans are more vicious than beasts when they harm others. Beasts eat humans to fill their stomachs, but there is no reason for humans to harm others."
Lin Wanwan changed the subject and said, "By the way, the little guy isn't awake yet?"
The two of them had already arrived at the door of the suite on the third floor. Lin Mengli put down the package and said, "That's not true. Don't worry."
After thanking Lin Mengli, Lin Wanwan closed the door and bolted it, and went to bed. Perhaps because she was too tired and too excited, Lin Wanwan fell asleep quickly.
The next day, Lin Wanwan, who had just slept, heard a soft and waxy voice in her ears: "Mother, I need to pee."
Before Lin Wanwan could react, she said "Yeah" and said, "Go ahead."
Feeling someone crawling over her, Lin Wanwan suddenly woke up. Do I have a child?
When she opened her eyes, Xiao Qingyu climbed out of bed with half-closed eyes, touched the toilet, and started peeing obediently, with her eyes still closed. After urinating, she ran onto the bed, turned over Lin Wanwan's body, and pressed against Lin Wanwan's body.
He lay down again with his head on her head and his little arms around her neck.
It's hard to describe Lin Wanwan's mood at this time. She felt like she was suddenly overflowing with maternal love.
She turned her head and stared at the little guy for a while. The little guy had half-closed eyes. When he noticed Lin Wanwan's gaze, he immediately opened his eyes and showed her a big smile with two sweet dimples:
"Mother."
"Well, Xiao Yu'er is so good." Lin Wanwan touched Xiao Qingyu's face. Her chin was pointed and had no flesh. She must be rounded and pinched!
