Return To 1998

On the first and second day of the new year, Xu Tongdao took his wife, children, younger brothers, and younger sisters to visit his relatives from house to house.

This was planned long ago.

It's just a little rush in two days.

Every family and every household enthusiastically wanted to keep them for dinner and wine, so it was even more rushed.

On the third day of the new year, he took his wife and children to Wei Chunlan's family home for New Year's greetings. Apart from his father-in-law and mother-in-law, there were also many relatives of Wei Chunlan's family who wanted to walk around.

Xu Tongdao also spent two days.

The same is in a hurry.

But there is no way. He had promised to attend Zheng Qing's wedding years ago, and he couldn't help but talk.

only……

Wei Chunlan hasn't returned to her family for a long time. During the Spring Festival, let her stay in her family for only two days, and she was really reluctant to leave so quickly.

No way, two days later, Xu Tongdao temporarily left her and her children with her father-in-law and mother-in-law, so that they could play there.

But he himself took the car to Zheng Qing's hometown.

When he finished attending Zheng Qing's wedding and returned to Shazhou, it was already the seventh day of the new year.

On the way back to Shazhou, he talked with Wei Chunlan on the phone.

On the phone, Wei Chunlan still didn't want to leave, and wanted to stay at her parents' house for another week.

Xu Tongdao could understand in his heart, but somewhat helpless.

I can only agree to pick up her and the children in a week.

He drove directly back to Xujiacun by himself.

In other words, he himself wants to stay in his hometown for a few more days.

However, what he didn't expect was that-as soon as he returned home, he saw his cousin Bai Lanlan, her husband Mi Li, and her daughter Mi Xiaoxiao sitting in their living room, and they were talking with Ge Xiaozhu, Xu Tonglu, Shen Tuqing, and Ge Yuzhu. Talk and chat.

Bai Lanlan and Mi Li both held tea cups in their hands.

what's the situation?

Seeing this scene, Xu Tongdao's footsteps as he entered the door immediately slowed down, and his eyes were slightly narrowed.

His eyes were cast on the faces of the three of Bai Lanlan's family.

Seeing this, my sister Ge Yuzhu got up and ran over here for the first time, "Big brother is back, big brother! Have you eaten at noon? If you haven't eaten, let my aunt make something for you?"

Ge Yuzhu's words caused Bai Lanlan and Mi Li to stand up subconsciously, looking at Xu Tongdao with a slightly unnatural expression. Mi Li squeezed a little smile and greeted him actively: "Xiaodao, come back, come back? We, me and Lanlan Come and pay a New Year's greetings to your second mother!"

Second mother...

According to seniority, Xu Tongdao's father Xu Weixi is Bai Lanlan's second uncle, and Ge Xiaozhu is naturally Bai Lanlan's second mother.

Xu Tongdao nodded and looked at his cousin Bai Lanlan.

In his mind, their home and Bai Lanlan's home had already broken up.

Therefore, he didn't understand which Bai Lanlan was singing today?

Is it just that I thought it was a trouble?

Bai Lanlan also squeezed a little smile at this time, lowered her head and said to the daughter Mi Xiaoxiao beside her: "Xiaoxiao, call uncle!"

Mi Xiaoxiao, when Xu Tongdao was born again, she was only two years old.

Now, 12 years later, Mi Xiaoxiao is also 14 years old.

As we all know, girls develop early, 13 or 4 years old, and are often full-length.

No, the Mi Xiaoxiao that Xu Tongdao saw at this time was no longer shorter than Bai Lanlan, except for the immature color on his face, she was already a big girl if she looked at her head.

"Uncle Happy New Year!"

Mi Xiaoxiao showed a sweet smile and greeted enthusiastically. When she smiled, the two dimples on the cheek were very obvious.

Let Xu Tongdao think of her grandmother Bai Meifeng subconsciously.

"Hello!"

Xu Tongdao replied indifferently.

At this time, sister Ge Yuzhu approached Xu Tongdao and said in a low voice: "Brother, their family came this morning. I heard that you might be home at noon. After lunch at our house, they haven't left. I guess it is. Wait for you."

Xu Tongdao glanced at her without comment.

When he walked to the sofa in the reception area, Xu Tongdao handed the coat in his arms to his sister who was following him, and sat down at will, raising his hand to signal Bai Lanlan and the others to sit too.

When they were all seated, Xu Tongdao took the cup of tea handed over by his younger brother and sister Shen Tuqing, looked at Bai Lanlan, squinted his eyes, and asked: "Is there something you want me to help?"

Bai Lanlan opened her mouth slightly as she was about to speak, her husband Mi Li, who was sitting next to her, shook his head quickly and denied, "No, no! Xiaodao, you misunderstood, we really came to visit our second mother today, really!"

Bai Lanlan's face was a little flushed at this time.

Of course she understood why Xu Tongdao would ask that way.

Because of what happened back then, her family had long since stopped contacting the Taoist family of Xu, which made it clear that they were breaking the relationship.

This year, she suddenly came to visit her second mother, Ge Xiaozhu, and she felt embarrassed.

but……

During the Spring Festival this year, everyone around her was persuading her and persuading her to have a good relationship with Xu Tong Taoism.

The reasons are varied.

Such as: "After all, your blood is thicker than water, your dad and his dad are brothers!"

"Are you stupid? Your cousin is now the richest man in the province, and most people don't have the chance to climb such a relative. You have such a cousin, but you don't even recognize it?"

"Wife! Let's not deal with that side, the loss is us, not others! Don't want to save face, besides, even if you don't think about yourself, can't you think about our daughter? Xiaoxiao she is so big Now, if we can take care of the Xu family in the future, how much can we save our minds? Don’t you think?”

This is what her husband Milly told her repeatedly recently.

And her mother, Bai Meifeng, who has been released from prison, is also persuading her recently, "Lan Lan, being a human being...sometimes it’s a good thing to have a backbone, but sometimes it’s a silly thing to have a backbone! You have my last name," If you had your father’s surname back then, then you would also have the surname Xu, and Xiaodao... In terms of blood relationship, you would be a bit worse than his brother Xiaolu, and more intimate than her sister! After all, you also know that his sister was adopted since childhood. , He has no blood relationship with Xiaodao, so, speaking of him, you and him are relatives, you go to be soft with him, it is not ashamed, you think about it?"

...

Her mother-in-law, daughter, relatives and friends in the family have all been persuading her recently.

Everyone analyzed her from all angles, and it seemed that everyone was looking forward to her and Xu family's resumption of walking.

She...was persuaded~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In fact, she knew in her heart that she wanted to restore the relationship with the Xu family a long time ago, but year after year, she still couldn't hold back that face, and couldn't make up that determination. .

At this time, facing Xu Tongdao's gaze, Bai Lanlan squeezed out a smile and nodded in agreement with her husband's words, "Yes! I, let's pay a New Year greeting to my second mother!"

Xu Tonglu, who was sitting aside, raised a sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

But he did not speak out of courtesy.

Xu Tongdao squinted his eyes and stared at Bai Lanlan's eyes. He has always been good at observing words and expressions and trying to figure out people's hearts. Of course Bai Lanlan's words are insincere, he can of course see it.

He also wanted to laugh a little.

funny.

He remembered very clearly, Yuan Shikong, before he was reborn, the Bai Lanlan family never resumed contact with their family, but why is this life different?

The reason is like that of Der Spiegel in his heart.
