"When your grandma married your grandpa, it wasn't because of love. Just like all marriages, they came together like this. But your grandma was lucky. After marrying your grandpa, she slowly discovered that the two of them actually got along very well.
, we had a mutually beneficial marriage. Your grandma is not an old-fashioned person. She once told me that even if she met someone other than your grandpa, she would not regret it because every decision was made by herself.
, if you want to be responsible for yourself, you must face it bravely instead of blaming others, let alone escaping. She said that everyone has their own way to go, so everyone must be responsible for themselves. Just like pregnant women
Jin. Although her original purpose in making this marriage decision was not for herself, and the results may not be optimistic, I can see that she is a strong child, and such hardships will only make her stronger. She has never
She said she regretted her decision. Didn’t she? As her family, we can only support her and give her the strength to get through the difficulties, instead of blaming anyone or looking for the root cause. To solve something, we have to face it positively
That's fine. As long as you have the courage to face it, there is nothing that cannot be solved. This is also your grandma's always point of view." Father murmured, just like gossiping, his tone was calm, and he did not talk about self-righteousness. He was just an old man.
The family motto of a generation still has its truth even today.
Min Hao still frowned, but his heart was no longer as violent as before. He slowly pulled back the quilt on his face, looked at the ceiling, and thought of those bits and pieces. He knew that he had underestimated his sister's courage. She
She has always been a very strong and independent person. She said that she would solve her own problems, but it was not just to appease him. What made Minhao sad was that he was the cause of this tragedy. The guilt made him realize
It’s hard to get angry. But grandma is right. Everyone is responsible for their own actions. My sister is responsible for her own decisions, and Minhao is also responsible for his own actions. To make up for this mistake, you can’t just shake your fist.
fixed.
The father stood up and finally said: "I know what makes you sad, Minhao. But you should think about it. The deal is done. We can't change anything, but at least it should be worthy of your sister's efforts. Isn't it? Think about it carefully.
"
Then Min Hao heard the slight sound of the door closing, and all that was left was his own barely audible breathing.
However, his father's words made Min Hao think deeply. Isn't it that my sister is willing to sacrifice her own happiness just to get his freedom? If I can't change my sister's previous choice, then as my father said, I must at least be worthy of her.
sacrifice.
He sat up suddenly, looked around for his cell phone, and then quickly turned it on. The unread text message from Han Xiaotao was still displayed on the desktop. Min Hao clicked on the text message, and the MMS interface popped up.
"I lit up the small orange lantern of Grandma Minhao. I believe she will bless everyone with happiness. You have to believe in grandma, right?" The picture below shows the small orange lantern with a candle on the peach tree branch at night.
.
A warm current surged into Min Hao's heart, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his lips. Suddenly he was a little annoyed that he hung up Han Xiaotao's phone so abruptly. He thought about whether to call, but it was already early in the morning, and she should have fallen asleep.
Hao had no choice but to send a text message so that she would receive it when she turned on her phone tomorrow and it would not affect her good mood for the day.
"You are the angel my grandma gave me. With you by my side, I will be happy every day."
Just when Min Hao was about to put his phone aside and think alone, he received a new text message, and it turned out to be Han Xiaotao.
"You idiot, why are you still up so late?"
Min Hao opened his eyes wide and held the phone in his hand. He didn't expect that this girl was still awake. Now that he thought about the text message just now, he realized that it was a bit pretentious and quickly replied: "You haven't slept at all! Why, you won't be here."
Wait for me?"
"I'm afraid you can't think about it. Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!"
"Damn girl, if you don't get some beauty sleep, no one will come to see you with this skin tomorrow. I don't know who will be able to think about it then." Cui Minhao called and said in a threatening tone.
Han Xiaotao stuck out her tongue and said, "To each other. So you think so much, you might as well have a good sleep, right?"
"It seems that I don't want to sleep, so you really don't want to sleep anymore? Well, let's just show kindness." Min Hao said and yawned.
"Then I really have to thank Master Cui." Han Xiaotao said with a smile.
"It's rare that I didn't refute this time." Cui Minhao said in surprise.
"Because I have to take care of your mood today, that's why I'm doing this. Don't be too proud. Otherwise, I'll have to make up for it next time." Han Xiaotao pouted into the phone and said.
Min Hao chuckled twice and said: "Okay then. Seeing that you are so good tonight, I will grant your expectations. Then...good night." Although the first words were very domineering, the last two words were gentle.
Come down.
Han Xiaotao also said softly: "Good night." Since she could still joke, it meant that her mood was recovering well, so she felt relieved.
Min Hao's originally restless mood calmed down and fell asleep after this torment.
The next day it was still sunny and the summer air was full of sweet smell.
"Ding dong."
The maid opened the door and it was the delivery person.
"Master, I have something for you."
Min Hao knew something was coming early in the morning, so he quickly picked up the gift bag. It contained some tools and wrapping paper.
"Min Hao, we can eat soon." Cui's father did not forget to remind him when he saw Min Hao walking upstairs.
"I know." Min Hao agreed while still going upstairs.
Cui's father raised his head and looked at Min Hao's chuckling profile, and felt something was wrong. This guy was obviously in low spirits yesterday, so why is he so cheerful today? No matter how powerful his words were, it wouldn't be enough, right? Thinking, Cui
Dad put down the newspaper and followed him.
Minhao stayed alone in the room, dumped the contents of the gift bag on the table, and carefully trimmed the beautiful wrapping paper with scissors.
"Why didn't I see that you can do handicrafts before?" Cui's father said funnyly.
Min Hao laughed and said, "No, I just want to do something to help her."
"Her? Let me guess, who has such an honor." Cui's father said in a conspiratorial manner. "It's the girl named Han Xiaotao, right? Although I haven't seen her a few times, at your sister's wedding that day,
She really shocked me. This kind of straightforward temperament is really rare. Such a girl is worth protecting."
Min Hao stopped and looked up at his father. "So does this count as your approval?"
"Does your future wife need my approval? Just stick to what you approve of, isn't it?" Cui's father laughed mischievously like a child. "Are you going to prepare something for her?"
"It's a photo of her mother and her. If you touch it too much with your hands, the photo will become scratchy, so I want to buy a photo frame and frame it before giving it to her." Min Hao said, pointing to the photo frame on the table.
Cui's father patted Min Hao on the shoulder and said, "You must have learned to be considerate of others. You must have grown up." After saying that, he picked up the photo frame and looked at it.
"Xiao Tao's mother is very beautiful and has a good temperament, but God is not open to it, so she has gone through many twists and turns, and her beauty is miserable." Min Hao sighed. However, his father did not answer, and after a long time, there was still silence in the room. Min Hao said
Feeling something was wrong, he raised his head and saw his father frozen in place, holding the photo frame motionless. He asked with some confusion: "What's wrong?"
"You, you said this is a photo of Han Xiaotao and her mother?" Cui's father was stunned for a long time before asking in a trembling voice.
"Yes." Minhao felt that something was wrong with his father's tone, so he added, "What's wrong?"
The photo frame in my father's hand fell to the ground with a bang, and his eyes were staring straight at where he was looking.
"In the end..." Min Hao stood up and grabbed his father's arm. He saw something in his father's eyes that made him a little scared.
It took a long time for my father to turn around, stare at Min Hao's face, and murmured: "Hu Jing... this woman is... Hu Jing..."
Hu Jing? This name exploded in Min Hao's ears like thunder, as if it knocked him unconscious. When his father mentioned this name that day, he still looked nostalgic, but today he looked surprised. It's because... Photo
The baby in Hu Jing's hands is Han Xiaotao, his son's girlfriend?
"You said... Han Xiaotao's mother is Hu Jing? The Hu Jing who was pregnant with your child... but then left you?" Min Hao suddenly became excited and looked at his father with wide eyes. His fierce tone made him almost breathless.
Get angry.
"Han Xiaotao... Han Xiaotao is her daughter? A daughter who became pregnant out of wedlock? Then... then..." Cui's father choked and looked at Min Hao with red eyes. He didn't know whether he couldn't hold himself back after receiving the news about Hu Jing suddenly, or he couldn't.
Faced with such a conclusion. After all, the relationship between Han Xiaotao and Min Hao... If Han Xiaotao is the child Hu Jing was pregnant with when she left him, then Min Hao's Xiao Tao is his half-brother and sister!
"Impossible!" Min Hao immediately interrupted his father's guess loudly. "This is absolutely impossible!" He squatted down to pick up the broken photo frame, and said to himself: "Impossible, this is impossible, absolutely impossible!
Maybe! You must have seen it wrong, you have seen it wrong!"
"Min Hao..." Cui's father looked at Min Hao's somewhat panicked behavior and was speechless.
Min Hao squatted on the ground and grabbed the photo from the broken glass. His fingers were scratched and he didn't seem to feel anything. He put the photo in his pocket, fearing that his father would take another look, and rushed out without leaving a word.
"Min Hao!" Cui's father turned around and chased out. He wanted to grab Min Hao, but he stopped again and just watched Min Hao's figure disappear into the distance with a tangled expression.
