Lin Meng discovered that Rong Ling's luck in playing cards was really not that good. If he hadn't lost sometimes, she would have almost suspected that he was cheating. At the end of the day, the little guy was still a little unfinished and seemed to have fallen in love with him.
The action of "slapping the magic talisman" on the person's head.
Shi Yu and others were about to leave and go back to their houses for dinner. Lin Meng immediately expressed his intention to leave. Rong Ling's eyebrows turned cold and he was a little unhappy. According to his wishes, this woman should stay with him, at least he
Now she is an "injured patient". But Lin Meng had made up her mind to leave, and also to prevent this man from forcing her to stay, so she saw the opportunity and left with the others. In this way, in front of everyone, forgive Rong Ling
She won't do anything too overbearing. It's not that she is inconsiderate to him, but she is also a person with a temper. She cried so sadly before that her heart was about to be torn. Those sorrows cannot be explained away.
It will pass.
"It's Chinese New Year, you have nothing to do when you go back, so don't go back!" Rong Ling finally couldn't help but tried to persuade her to stay, her eyebrows slightly twisted.
"I still have something to do when I get back." She responded softly, picked up her coat and put it on.
It's so soft and soft, it feels like a punch on cotton, which is really discouraging.[
"Then let Youyou stay!"
Now Lin Meng frowned, lowered his head and asked Youyou: "Youyou, do you want to stay with uncle?!"
The little guy looked at Rong Ling, then at Lin Meng, and finally shook his head, leaning closer to Lin Meng. He still liked his mommy more, and he would follow her wherever she wanted to go.
Rong Ling's face darkened and he said nothing. Lin Meng went to get his coat and put it on the little guy. Shi Yu and others saw the opportunity and took advantage of this opportunity to leave before Lin Meng could even open his mouth to persuade him to stay.
But——, no matter what, she has to leave.
Holding the little guy's hand, she looked at Rong Ling stubbornly. "I'm going back first!"
She - she can no longer be easily controlled by him!
This realization made him a little unhappy and a little disappointed.
"Let Miao Qing follow you, she will be responsible for protecting you from now on!"
Lin Meng raised her eyebrows, "protect"? It wasn't that she was doubtful, but that this candidate wasn't very suitable?!
Rong Ling thought to himself and said in a cold voice: "You can trust her with confidence. If you have something you can't handle, you can also ask her for help. There has been some instability around me recently, which may affect you, so you must be around me."
You have to follow people."
Her brows furrowed even more.
He looked at her sternly. "This is not a request, but an order. Miao Qing needs to go out and go in together with you. Externally, you can call her your cousin, or your friend, etc. In short,
Whatever is convenient for you will do, it depends on your own arrangements."
"Who wants to embarrass you?" she asked suddenly, her concerned eyes shining on him without any concealment.
His brows and eyes warmed up, and the corner of his mouth curled up. "It hasn't been confirmed yet. It's being searched."
"Are they... the group of people who blocked you on the highway that day?"
Rong Ling nodded slightly.
Lin Meng's eyes suddenly cast a shadow. "Then... you have to be careful!"
Apart from this, she doesn't know what else she can do! Explosives and sniper killings are a bit far away for her who has lived a peaceful life for four years. Now these appear in front of her again. She
She can only be at a loss, and she doesn’t know how to deal with it. She... doesn’t have the ability either![
Thinking of the protection Rong Ling said, she turned to look at Miao Qing with hesitation on her face. She held the little guy's hand and followed it a little tight.
When Miao Qing saw it, he took two steps forward, smiled slightly, and looked at Lin Meng calmly.
"Mengmeng, there is no need to doubt my loyalty to you. Four years ago, I was loyal to Rong Sanbo. Four years later, I was loyal to Rong Ling. Now, I am loyal to you. Just like 'a servant will not serve two masters', an excellent
It is impossible for an employee to be loyal to two bosses at the same time. Rong Ling asked me this and asked me to make a choice, so I chose to follow him. Then, I no longer need to consider Rong Sanbo’s words. Now, Rong Ling
You ordered me to be loyal to you, with your safety as the first condition. If necessary, I can even ignore Rong Ling's words and make my own decisions, so you don't have to worry, I am just a protector, definitely not a destroyer!"
This was said so thoroughly that if Lin Meng continued to doubt anything, she would be disturbing herself. She turned her head, took a deep look at Rong Ling, who seemed to be silent and indifferent, raised her lips, smiled, and clicked.
nod.
At least, this man really took her to heart in what he did.
"Then let Sister Miao Qing be my cousin. This way it will be easier to explain to others and you can also stay at my place!"
She has always admired Miao Qing. This woman is mature, capable, and has an indescribable aura of confidence around her. From the very beginning, she was an existence that Lin Meng envied and aspired to achieve. She was very fond of Miao Qing at the beginning.
Lin Meng's attitude was natural and generous, and she never showed the slightest contempt. In this regard, she had won a lot of favor from Lin Meng. She was raised by Rong Sanbo and was loyal to Rong Sanbo.
, what she did at the beginning was understandable. Furthermore, when she listened to Rong Sanbo's actions, she also helped Lin Meng as much as possible. Although Lin Meng was warned and was forced to leave Rong Ling, she never resented him.
Miao Qing. So today, she can still call out "Sister Miao Qing" naturally, just like before.
Miao Qing smiled slightly and said no more.
Rong Ling then asked Lin Meng to keep an eye on Xiao Youyou and not let him out of her sight. Lin Meng agreed one by one before leaving.
Rong Ling frowned, lying alone on the bed, watching the building empty of people, feeling for the first time that it was really fucking uncomfortable to be alone!
*
Although the Ruan family was a little suspicious of Miao Qing, a distant cousin who suddenly appeared, they couldn't say anything. Lin Meng was the person with the highest status in the family. Even if she randomly invited a passerby to live at home, they wouldn't do anything.
It's so obvious to drive people away. Nowadays, everyone in this family, except for Ruan Chenghui, has basically received Lin Meng's favor. Her position in this family has become somewhat real!
There was no extra room at home, so Miao Qing and Lin Meng lived together. They were all women, so it was okay to share a bed together. This situation would probably continue for a few days, because Rong Ling's investigation revealed nothing.
breakthrough.
Rong Ling originally thought of letting this little woman go back once and then come back the next day, but this little woman was so cruel that she would rather stay at Ruan's house the next day than come to him, and then, the third day
When the sun fell, he went out with Jiang Chengfeng again. When he got the news from Miao Qing, he was very angry. Could it be that his injury was so dispensable in her eyes?
Don't you care?! What is this woman doing? One moment, she acts like she cares about him, and the next, she is heartless and makes people hate him so much!
Naturally, he didn't know that this was Lin Meng's revenge! The clay figurine still had a certain earthly "nature", and she also had the right to use her "nature"! Needless to say, if he Rong Ling gave her a good look, she would
You have to be like a puppy, darling around him to please him!
The reason she went out with Jiang Chengfeng was because Jiang Chengfeng wanted to take her to pay homage to Jiang Polang. Finally, she had been looking forward to this opportunity, so naturally she didn't have to think about anything and just took Xiao Youyou into Jiang Chengfeng's car and left.
Already.
During the Chinese New Year, Jiang Chengfeng's parents went back to their hometown in City J to visit relatives today, so they gave Lin Meng an opportunity to enter the main house of the Jiang family. Lin Meng was extremely grateful for Jiang Chengfeng's considerate arrangement.
I specially bought some flowers, fruits, cigarette paper money, and went to pay my respects.
In order to comply with the country's "anti-feudal superstition" policy, it is impossible for "government" officials like Jiang Yancheng to set up a memorial tablet at home and burn incense to worship it every day, so Jiang Pulang's urn is buried in the grass in the backyard.
Inside, there is a small tombstone, which is not much different from the cemetery outside.
"Let Alang and I stay alone for a while, okay?!"
Lin Meng looked at Jiang Chengfeng, his eyes covered with mist-like water vapor. That glance left all the sourness and made people's hearts ache. Jiang Chengfeng nodded, pursed his lips, and left quietly.
The little guy followed Lin Meng obediently and did not dare to mess around, because he also knew that Uncle Xiao Jiang was unusual.
Lin Meng arranged flowers and fruits one by one, then dyed them with incense with a lighter and inserted them into the soil. The aroma began to rise faintly, accompanied by the curling white mist, making people seem to have entered a "blurred" environment.
. She looked at the young smiling face on the tombstone and shed tears before she said a word.
"Alang, I'm here to see you. I'm sorry, I haven't seen you for so long..."[
A whisper, but more like a sigh!
The little guy didn't quite understand. When he saw his mommy crying, he started to cry pitifully. His little body snuggled into Lin Meng's arms, as if he could rely on his mommy, or he could get some support from his mommy.
Feeling supported, Lin Meng hugged the little guy tightly, crying, and gently introduced Xiao Youyou to Jiang Polang, and let Xiao Youyou get to know Jiang Polang again. Then, she gently told her about her situation over the years...
There were paper money that looked like copper coins on it, which burned one after another and gradually turned into dust. The little guy sat on the grass with his little buttocks, clumsily imitating Lin Meng's folding of gold ingots. After folding one, he burned one and burned it to others.
Jiang Pulang Underground. Lin Meng learned this from a neighbor grandma when he was a child in the countryside, and he has never forgotten it!
She didn't know if there were really ghosts in the world, or if there was reincarnation, but as a living person, that's all she could do for a dead person. Seriously, this wasn't really a superstition, it was just a
The only condolences the living can do to the dead!
There was some silence between heaven and earth. Only her soft voice with sobs and the sound of folding ingots were left. The rest, even the flames burning, seemed so quiet. There was a kind of sadness.
The coldness was exaggerated in this place. The little guy felt it and did not dare to breathe. He just covered his head and folded the gold ingots, using his clumsy little fingers to express his respect for the brave little uncle in his own way.
And gratitude. Jiang Chengfeng also felt it. He stood at the window on the second floor, watching in silence with a solemn face, as if his whole person had turned into a statue.
Everyone is in pain. This is the heaviness that will inevitably arise from the premature passing of a life!
The incense can be burned, the paper money can be burned, but she can't finish what she wants to say to him! The more she talks, the more her heart hurts!
The little guy has his head hanging down and has been sitting for more than two hours. This is not easy for a child, and it is also distressing.
"Youyou, go play by yourself!" Lin Meng stretched out his hand, gently pulled the little guy's calf, and started to "knead" it. Sitting on his knees for so long, his legs must be numb.
The little guy raised his expressionless face and shook his head. "I'll stay with mommy."
There was a hint of stubbornness in his big dark eyes that was not for his age.
What a caring little baby!
Lin Meng sighed in his heart, then went to "knead" the little guy's other leg, and said softly: "Uncle Xiao Jiang just told mommy that he wanted you to go play, and you don't need to stay with mommy here. He wants to
Whisper to mommy!"
The little guy pursed his lips, was silent for a while, nodded, and asked curiously: "Mommy, why doesn't Uncle Xiao Jiang talk to Youyou?"
Lin Meng laughed, thought for a while, and then replied: "Because Uncle Xiao Jiang and Mommy have a very, very good relationship, so only Mommy can hear Uncle Xiao Jiang's words. And Youyou just met Uncle Xiao Jiang today.
, I’m not very familiar with you, so Uncle Xiao Jiang hasn’t talked to you yet!”
"Oh." The little guy nodded understandingly and said innocently: "Well, Mommy, Youyou will often come to play with Uncle Xiao Jiang in the future. In this way, Uncle Xiao Jiang will get to know Youyou, and he and Youyou will be very close.
We have a very good relationship, and when the time comes, Youyou will also whisper to Uncle Xiao Jiang!"
Lin Meng was stunned for a moment, tears overflowed slightly in his eyes, and he laughed secretly at the child's innocence, how could he be "frequent" in the future!
She pulled the little guy up, patted the little guy's butt, and sent the little guy away. As soon as the little guy disappeared from her sight, the raging tears finally broke through and surged from her eyes.
When she came out, she hugged Jiang Polang's tombstone and cried uncontrollably. Those sobs moved the whole world!
She sent the little guy away because she didn't want him to cry with her. She knew her baby son very well, and he would definitely cry louder than she did. She felt sorry for her son and didn't want to do that. The son went to play by himself.
She didn't need to be patient and let out all the sadness, guilt, regret, shame, and pain she had accumulated over the years.
Being saved by others and bearing another life is actually very heavy. This heaviness will sometimes appear inadvertently and almost crush her; this heaviness will also make her suddenly emotional and cry out in sorrow;
This heaviness would also make her toss and turn sometimes, keeping her eyes open until dawn...
As he expected, she worked hard to live a better life, often facing this sometimes cruel life with a smile, but she was not strong enough to maintain such a state of mind, so she could always think of him.
, you will be slightly sad, you will sigh softly, you will also be unable to come back to your senses for a long time, immersed in mourning and unable to extricate yourself...
The saddest thing of all is that she has always endured his kindness, but never paid anything for him. It was so unfair that he left and left her, but he couldn't even repay her, and even couldn't even come to see her.
He has always been so extravagant.
"Fool...you fool..."
Whispering softly, she could only hug the cold tombstone tighter...

When Jiang's mother got out of the car, she was a little confused. As soon as she arrived at her hometown and saw all the relatives and friends, all the children and their children, and everyone was enjoying themselves, she couldn't bear it. She managed to cope for a while, but finally she couldn't stand it anymore.
I just took the car back early.
After Jiang Polang left, her spirits were a little bad. In the past, she was always very busy and focused on the company's business. In recent years, she has become depressed. Even the company is not big anymore, let alone
Most of the time, she would chat with Jiang Polang in the backyard. The doctor diagnosed that she had mild depression and it was best to seek psychological treatment, but she refused.
She understands her own situation. The death of her youngest son is equivalent to taking away a ray of soul from her body, causing her pain beyond measure. It cannot be cured by simple treatment. There is no son in the world who is more "white-haired"
What was even more painful was the fact that a person gave away a black-haired person. She thought countless times that day, even if she died in place of her youngest son, how could she let a young boy go like this and leave him behind?
As a mother, she can only remember it with throbbing pain!
She got out of the car in a daze and rubbed her brows. She felt extremely tired and even walking became a little numb. Seeing that the door of her house was in front of her, she sighed and thought of her little son buried in the backyard.
Bitterness spread like ripples in her heart.
She turned her head inadvertently, glanced at the gray sky at the moment, turned her head over habitually, and continued walking forward numbly, but as soon as she lifted her foot, she was stunned.
Then he opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and turned his head violently, with such force that he almost broke his neck.
As far as the eye can see, there is a group of military green and white and blue on the big tree, in the style of "camouflage" uniforms. The black skull on the top is exactly a small human head. In winter, the leaves have fallen off.
The branches are pointing towards the sky, as if they are desperate and can only pray to the hands of God. And in this gray with death, a touch of military green suddenly appears, how at first glance. It is like a touch of
The bright green of life seems to be reborn in this gray world.
A dead tree with a fresh child hanging on it is not like the rebirth of life!
Jiang's mother opened her mouth in disbelief, and tears slowly overflowed from her eyes. She stood there, trembling, and pitifully did not dare to move, for fear of scaring away this life.
The immature child, only a small ball, was holding the horizontally growing tree trunk with his hands and his two calves. He looked like a koala. This scene was so familiar, so familiar.
This made Jiang’s mother’s tears fall even more fiercely!
Her vision began to blur, and she could only see a face that resembled that of her youngest son, facing him, with a pair of big black eyes, with the same innocence, blinking at her slightly slyly.
The memory suddenly went back, and time seemed to go backwards. It was also on that winter day, the naughty little son hung on the tree, watching cunningly as everyone was looking for him, but he watched silently, secretly keeping it in his heart.
Le. After she finally found him and asked him what he was doing, he told her confidently: "Mom, I'm a koala and I can't get down from the tree!"
The youngest son's eyes were so dark, like an obsidian, that they almost illuminated the gray sky! So, that moment became eternity and was engraved in her mind.
She couldn't tell the difference anymore, so she approached cautiously, tears quietly sliding into her mouth. She tasted the bitter taste, but couldn't help but laugh, just like before.
"Little naughty boy, what are you doing?!"
The child in his eyes stuck out his tongue, chuckled, and said crisply: "I'm being a koala, and I can't come down from the tree!"
The child's eyes were so beautiful, black and bright, like two shooting stars, which suddenly hit Jiang's mother's heart, and suddenly rekindled her dying heart!
