"He likes astronomy very much, so he is very interested in these things. Unfortunately, he has not had time to go to college and learn this knowledge."
Thinking of her younger brother Azhe, Mu Yuzhen felt a little sour in her heart and her eyes were wet and hot.
In the past, she always persuaded Azhe to learn some useful skills. It was too difficult to get ahead in astronomy, but he just loved this aspect and often took her to the top of the mountain to watch the stars.
Because the top of the mountain is a little closer to the stars.
They were poor and had no money to buy telescopes or any stargazing instruments.
So Ah Zhe was very sensible and said that he could go to the top of the mountain to get closer to the stars. Although this idea was so ridiculous and untenable, Mu Yuzhen was also used to accompanying her brother up the mountain to see the stars at this time of year.
Fortunately, on this day every year, the stars are shining and it is particularly beautiful.
The picture of the past became the pain of the moment. When she thought of Azhe's smile, the scar in her heart felt like it was being torn open, and there was a faint pain.
Teng Jinsi looked sideways at her red eyes and the surging tears. His heart suddenly seemed to be pricked by a needle. There was so much guilt that he didn't know what he should say.
What can comfort her.
He knew that he had no position or qualification to comfort her.
The only thing that surprised him was that she would mention her deceased brother in front of him.
Mu Yuzhen raised her head slightly. Although she couldn't see it, the memory of the past was still in her mind. The starry night sky and her brother's smiling face appeared so clearly in her mind, as if she was seeing it all again.
She curled up the corners of her mouth, but the corners of her eyes were already moist.
He stopped talking and just sat silently, wanting to sit a little longer and feel his brother's presence.
Although she did not cry or express her pain in any words, Teng Jinsi could feel the grief radiating from her body. He stretched out his hand and held her hand tightly. Her hand was cold and without any warmth.
, he held it and choked for a long time before he said, "It's cold outside, please go back inside, okay?"
"I want to sit for a while."
Seeing how determined she was, he sighed and had to sit silently with her.
After a while, she suddenly asked, "How did you know that you were related to my brother's matter?"
She still remembered that he refused to admit it at that time.
Why did he suddenly admit it again?
Hearing this, Teng Jinsi looked at her, "Want to hear my explanation?"
He always wanted to explain clearly, but she was always very excited, and she was particularly resistant to him, making him afraid to speak...
Afraid of arousing her emotions or affecting her condition.
Mu Yuzhen did not answer, silently waiting for his next words. He let go of her hand, took out the cigarette case from his trouser pocket, took out one, held it between his slender fingers, lowered his head slightly and lit the cigarette.
Unexpectedly, she coughed a few times.
Hearing the sound, Teng Jinsi glanced at her, put away his cigarette, and talked about what happened back then after a long while.
After his brief summary, the truth of the past scenes unfolded before his eyes. After he finished speaking, he looked at her for a long time and then said, "I thought it was me at first. Why didn't you call the police?"
He was so cruel to her at that time and showed no mercy at all. How could she still do this?
His eyes were locked on the expression on her face, as if he wanted to see something, but the bitter smile on her face stung his eyes, making him frown, and then said, "Repent?"
Mu Yuzhen didn't answer and was silent for a long time before she said softly, "The matter has passed and I don't want to talk about it anymore."
After finishing speaking, she stood up and wanted to leave, but she couldn't see with her eyes. She didn't know where to go. Teng Jinsi stepped forward to support her and whispered, "There are steps under your feet, slow down."
He helped her walk slowly into the house without asking any more questions. After she entered the house and lay down, he was ready to leave. When he walked to the door, he turned around and looked at her again. He wanted to say something, but he saw her turning over on her back.
Facing myself, no matter how much I say, I immediately get stuck in my throat and I can't say it out.
He closed the door silently and stared at the door again in a daze.
**********
Days passed like water, seeing that Niuniu's legs were getting better and she was able to go to school, but Mu Yuzhen still couldn't feel that her eyes were getting better.
Faintly, she felt a little uneasy.
I don't know where this uneasy feeling comes from, I just feel like something is wrong with me recently.
I often feel tired and sleep late, and I feel sleepy even when I sit on a stool in a daze.
Living in this home, she couldn't see other people's expressions, and naturally she wouldn't know that every day during breakfast, Teng Jinsi would always look at her casually, and even silently put things into her bowl, but she
He smiled and thanked Aunt Li. Aunt Li wanted to deny it, but Teng Jinsi shook his head and signaled Aunt Li not to say anything.
Sometimes, when he passed her door, he couldn't help but stop. His outstretched hand wanted to knock on the door several times, but he took it back abruptly.
Sometimes, when he saw her helping Niuniu braid her hair with her hands, he would feel an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
When I get home from get off work, I always wonder, will she be happy to see him back?
Niuniu said that there were several times when mommy would ask when daddy would come back.
He will wonder, can he understand that she actually wants to see him?
He is used to going home early, and never forgets to bring something for Niu Niu when he comes home. This time he came back from a business trip for two days. Naturally, he did not forget his daughter's gift, but who can tell him that when he saw the beautiful clothes in the clothing store?
, he actually bought a lot of them, and they were all in her size.
Teng Jinsi couldn't find the reason himself. He looked out the car window and saw the scenery along the way, knowing that he would be home soon, but when he came back this time, his mood seemed to be a little more nervous.
When she got home, Niu Niu ran out, hugged him, and said with a smile, "Daddy, you are back."
"where is my present?"
Hearing this, Teng Jinsi smiled and pinched the little girl's cheek lovingly, "Are you looking forward to your gift or are you really happy that daddy is back?"
"Hehe, of course... I want daddy to come back."
The little girl's mouth is sweeter than honey, and her little appearance is particularly cute.
Teng Jinsi smiled and handed her the gift for the little girl. Niu Niu couldn't wait to open it. Teng Jinsi picked up the remaining paper boxes and walked upstairs to her door.
, he wanted to raise his hand to knock on the door, but found that her door was not closed. He gently opened the door and found her sitting on the couch on the balcony, seemingly asleep.
I walked in gently, put the things aside, and saw her sleeping face so peacefully.
Her fair face was exposed to the sunlight, and there were faint shadows under her curled eyelashes.
Teng Jinsi brought a blanket to cover her. When he bent down slightly, he saw her sleeping face at close range. For some reason, his heart thumped and there was a subtle change. He couldn't help but glance at her lips...
