On the day when Grandma Taozi was buried, heavy snow fell from the sky. After everyone carried Grandma Taozi into the hearse from the city's funeral home, they followed her all the way to the funeral home.
When bidding farewell to the last body, Taozi looked at her grandma lying in the crystal coffin. The staff put on a light make-up to make her look calmer than usual, and put on a light lip gloss on her already blue lips.
, looking rosy and shiny, with a kind smile on her lips, as if she was just sleeping there, waiting for the child to wake her up.
Tears burst into Taozi's eyes again. This was the last time she saw her grandma. In a while, grandma would be sent to the cremation room. When she came out, she would be just a handful of white ashes in the urn.
Taozi blinked her eyes desperately, trying to blink away the tears that blocked her sight so that she could see her grandma again, but there were too many tears, and she could only see her kind smile in the haze.
Her little hand was gently held by a warm palm. Taozi turned around and saw that Shen Mochen was standing beside her, lowering his head and looking at her lightly. She saw his thin lips opening and closing slightly.
For a moment, something seemed to be said to her, but there were too many cries around her, and the sounds of mourning and music resounded in the funeral home. Taozi vaguely heard only a few words, "...I'm here..."
These were probably the deepest impressions in Taozi's mind that day, grandma's kind smile in the hazy place, and Shen Mochen's vague words.
I'm here, always here, with you.
After grandma was buried, Qin Ao took his wife and children to Taozi's house to stay for a while. During the Chinese New Year, his aunt, uncle, and grandpa, plus Taozi's grandparents, all gathered at Taozi's house, plus Shen Mochen's family.
A large group of people spent the New Year lively.
Later, when Taozi went to the library to return the books, she took Xiao Guo'er with her. Duan Yu looked at Guo'er who was so sticky with the peach, and just smiled faintly and handed Guo'er a candy. This move,
But it made Guo'er make his first friend in China.
When Qin Ao and the others returned to the United States, Guo'er burst into tears at the airport, yelling that Tao Zi must wait until he grows up, and that he would definitely come back to marry Tao Zi, while hugging Tao Zi's thigh tightly and refusing to let go.
In the end, Qin Ao carried him onto the plane.
In the blue sky in winter, the sun shines with warm light, and the plane flying to the United States roars past, like a bird flying across the sky, leaving no trace.
The lively scene during this period was like a sudden burst of fireworks. After the brilliance, only a place of loneliness was left.
After that winter vacation, time seemed to have wings, and summer arrived in the blink of an eye, and Shen Mochen lived up to expectations and was admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in the city with the highest score in the city.
During the summer vacation, Taozi looked at Shen Mochen's taller and taller figure and silently complained. She had obviously grown a lot taller this year, so why did she still have to look up when facing him?
"Hey, you've already grown to 1.8 meters, why are you still growing??" Taozi stood beside Shen Mochen with bare feet and gestured with her hands. Why did she always only reach a little more than his shoulders?
"It's because you grew up too slowly." Shen Mochen turned his head and rubbed her furry head.
