The snow continued to fall, until every corner of the world was coated with an eye-catching layer of white, and then it stopped.
No matter what the weather is like, life has to move on.
The children should go to school and the adults should go to work. Only Xue Ling and Wang Xiaoxiao were left to accompany their three children.
Wang Xiaoxiao was anxious and worried, and asked: "Mom, Brother Dudo... I'm going to work today? Is that okay?"
Xue Ling smiled and said: "Didn't you see everything earlier? He is just a little mentally unstable and thin, and there is no other uncomfortable performance. He also has to go to work, and staying in the room alone will only make it more uncomfortable.
"
"Yes." Wang Xiaoxiao agreed: "Changing the environment and keeping yourself busy is the best way to forget."
Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "When it comes to who knows how to be busy best, there is no one more than Zheng Duoduo. He loves work very much and treats work as a hobby. It is perfect for him to go to work at this time."
"Poor..." Wang Xiaoxiao looked at the children sitting on the carpet playing and sighed: "The most painful thing in the world is for a white-headed person to give a black-haired person a gift. Little Tong is very sad, and so is Duoduo. No,
Know when to come out."
Xue Ling lowered his eyes and said: "Duoduo has always been very strong, and he will adjust on his own. However, the pain of losing a child is a lifelong pain, and I am afraid that he will be shrouded in this shadow for the rest of his life."
"It's so miserable." Wang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but asked with concern: "Little Tong... how is she?"
Xue Ling replied: "She is still living in the hotel, and her parents are currently with her. Her brother flew back yesterday afternoon. Needless to say, he must still be immersed in grief."
Wang Xiaoxiao sighed with pity.
Xue Ling changed the topic and asked: "Have the rooms of Xiao Xiaohu and Mini Tiger been tidied up?"
"Not yet." Wang Xiaoxiao replied: "Huzi said there is no need to worry. The three of them, father and son, can fit in one room."
Xue Ling shook his head: "The child is getting older and cannot always sleep in the same bed with his father. Temporarily arrange a small bed for the little tiger. First let them share the same room with different beds, and gradually separate and become independent."
"Huzi agreed?" Wang Xiaoxiao asked subconsciously: "Mom, have you told him?"
Xue Ling replied: "I said it before. It's okay, just go and make arrangements."
Wang Xiaoxiao agreed and asked tentatively: "Mom, from now on... Brother Duoduo will always live here, right?"
"I will persuade him to stay." Xue Ling explained: "He has nowhere else to go right now, and we can't let him be alone. He doesn't know how to cook, and he doesn't trust a strange nanny to cook for him. He lives here.
, at least breakfast and dinner are guaranteed. If he lives alone, he will save on breakfast if he can, and will go to the cafeteria for lunch and dinner, or order takeout."
Wang Xiaoxiao later asked: "...are he and Xiao Tong really going to separate?"
"Yeah." Xue Ling reminded: "Don't ask him too much. At the end of the year, I will take him to Tietou for vacation and spend the New Year with us. From now on, we will have to take him to any gatherings or New Year's holidays at home. Don't let him be alone.
People have passed. This time something happened to the child, we were originally going to notify Xiaoyi, but she was currently in quarantine because she came into contact with a suspicious case and couldn't come out at all. Duoduo didn't want too many people to know, so even his one in the south
My brother didn’t say anything either.”
Wang Xiaoxiao whispered: "...It's such an unlucky coincidence. However, usually when a child is gone, the funeral will not be held with great fanfare. It will be handled in a low-key manner."
"That is." Xue Ling nodded.
At this time, Wang Xiaoxiao noticed that her phone vibrated.
She grabbed it and clicked on it - Xue Yang actually sent her a link.
From time to time, the young couple would share some interesting videos or news they saw, so she clicked on them without hesitation.
The next moment, she exclaimed: "Mom! Look! You - look!"
Xue Ling saw her suddenly panicked and stared at her mobile phone.
"what happened?"
Wang Xiaoxiao pointed to the phone screen: "Brother Dudo - he announced his divorce!"
Xue Ling: "??"
Hey! Such a big fanfare!
…
In the afternoon, Xue Ling was reading in the study. The concierge informed that guests were visiting. The other party said that their surname was Tong and that they were from Rongcheng in the south.
Xue Ling had been waiting for them and went out to pick them up personally.
Tong Zi Leng said hello stiffly with a stern face.
Chen Lan's face was full of anxiety and she nervously held Xue Ling's hand.
"Sister Ling...what's going on? Didn't you advise me?"
Xue Ling asked them to sit down and said honestly: "We can't persuade them, and he didn't give us a chance to persuade them."
Chen Lan's face turned pale and she trembled: "...There is really no room left? Do we really need a divorce?"
Xue Ling poured two cups of hot tea and handed them to them.
When Chen Lan saw Xue Ling deliberately avoiding him, the hope in her heart disappeared instantly, and her tears fell.
"Sister Ling, that... girl has already regretted it. After the child was gone, she was thinking about it. She also said last night that she would come to ask my uncle to forgive her... and live a good life with him again."
Xue Ling lowered his eyes and sighed softly.
If I had known this, why would I do it in the first place?
"Alan, this girl Xiao Tong has always been very strong and has a stubborn personality. The fact that she can speak like this proves that she really regrets it."
"Yes, yes!" Chen Lan couldn't help crying and said: "She always looked at photos of a family of three and cried while looking at them. The child suddenly disappeared, which was such a big blow to her. That girl was born when she was a child
She is so strong and rarely cries... This is the first time we have seen her cry so hard."
Xue Ling frowned in distress and whispered: "I have been sick for the past two days, so I didn't dare to go see her, so as not to let her get over the illness. I originally planned to go see her again tomorrow morning and chat with her... Otherwise,
I will accompany you back later to see little Tong together."
"Okay." Chen Lan nodded quickly.
Tong Zi on the side couldn't listen anymore and said with a sullen face: "Old Xue, we have known each other for twenty or thirty years. There is no need to hide some words, let's be more straightforward. Tell me, is that boy named Zheng real?
Divorce? He made the internet and mobile phone full of divorce news, what does that mean?! After my daughter saw it, she cried so much that she almost died!"
Xue Ling said calmly: "His meaning is already obvious, I don't need to emphasize anything. In fact, it was Xiao Tong who originally wanted to divorce, and she even sent him a divorce agreement. Originally Duoduo didn't want to divorce, but later they fought over the custody of the child.
I am worried and plan to go to court to resolve it. Now that the child is gone, there is no need to fight about the custody issue. I heard that Duoduo signed the agreement directly and left it all to the lawyer."
"The previous agreement?" Tong Zi frowned and asked seriously: "The one Xiao Tong prepared with her lawyer? Right?"
"Yes." Xue Ling nodded.
Hearing this, Tongzi breathed a sigh of relief and murmured: "That's okay... We are inseparable. Anyway, our little Tong deserves nothing less."
