"Well, it's okay." Gu Yichen seemed a little nervous. In fact, he had already practiced those words many times before coming here, but if he really wanted to say it in front of her, he felt that it was not the case.
Seeing his fidgeting, Mo Xiaoxiao felt a little overwhelmed for a moment. She looked at him silently for a moment, and then said cautiously: "I have heard about the misfortune of the Gu family, and I can also understand what you are doing at this moment. I just hope that you can be better, Ling father and Ling mother are gone, you have to cheer up, at least, at least there is Xi'er."
"Well, I know." Gu Yichen nodded, his voice was as low as coming from outside the door: "Thanks to you for taking care of Xi'er these days, I will never forget the kindness of you and Mrs. Yang."
Mo Xiaoxiao shook her head, not knowing what to say.
Lin Yushu on the side also saw Gu Yichen's embarrassment, knowing his current mood, he must feel that he is a sinner now, as miserable as a poor beggar, unable to lift his head, Lin Yushu got up and found a reason to leave : "That little Zhi, you and Young Master Gu chat first, I will go to the backyard to bring Xi'er over, and you chat."
After Lin Yushu left, there were only the two of them left in the room. Gu Yichen was extremely grateful for Lin Yushu's departure in his heart. She saw through his intentions. He was really ashamed, so he wanted to find a hole in the ground to get in.
"Are you still living in Jiangcheng?" Mo Xiaoxiao looked at him and continued to ask him.
"Well, everything in the house was confiscated by the government, but fortunately, my father and the official's family have a friend who is a close friend, so it took a lot of effort to force the house to stay. Now the Gu family can say There is nothing left, only an empty house, it can't be regarded as a home, it's like a ruin inhabited by wild ghosts." Gu Yichen sighed and said disappointedly.
Mo Xiaoxiao nodded and comforted him: "Don't be sad, at least there is still a place to stay. Now the Gu family is similar to the He family in the past. As long as there are people, there is always a way. The green hills left are not afraid of lack of firewood. .¡±
"In the past few days when I came back, I lived in that empty big house. I felt very deserted. My parents died, my sister was gone, my father's aunts and wives all left with money, and the servants also ran away with money. , I would rather live on the street than live in that fake prosperous house.¡±
"Don't think so, everything is still in time." Mo Xiaoxiao looked at his dejected look, and quickly comforted him.
Gu Yichen suddenly smiled, forced a smile from the corner of his mouth, then slowly raised his head and looked at her: "You must think I'm ridiculous now, I'm as miserable as a desolate beggar, even worse than a beggar, No one thinks highly of it, and I don¡¯t know what to do with it in the days to come, so I¡¯m just surviving on mediocrity.¡±
At this time, Mo Xiaoxiao could really see his face clearly. He seemed to be much older, his hair was messy, and his bushy eyebrows were messy like a garden that hadn't been pruned regularly. That face, one couldn't bear to look at it carefully. Two dull eyes like dead fish eyes. Under the high nose, the lips are dry and cracked, and it seems that there are still some bloodshot eyes. He is so haggard that he really looks like a beggar from the street, but in his eyes, there is sadness and anger in the downcast .
She was really taken aback. She really couldn't connect him who was so handsome before with him now, it was too cruel.
"No, no, you're not." Mo Xiaoxiao shook her head, suppressing her sorrow and staring at him: "Put death to life, you have always been the persistent and stubborn Gu Yichen in my heart, maybe you are down now, but The things in your bones have not changed, even so, you will not be content with the status quo, you will not."
"Really?" Gu Yichen smiled slightly, with a sense of self-mockery: "It turns out that I have always been so important in your heart, so how do you know that I will not let myself down, I have nothing now."
"I have seen people who are self-defeating and cannot extricate themselves. They smoke opium, eat, drink and gamble, they sell their property, squander it, and they do it absolutely, cutting off all contacts, like a person who has fallen into a swamp. You can¡¯t pull it out, and you don¡¯t want to pull it out, but you haven¡¯t, and you¡¯re still not reconciled to it, if that¡¯s the case, then never have this kind of thought, and don¡¯t disappoint my expectations of you, okay?¡±
Mo Xiaoxiao shook her head, and said seriously, she spoke in an extremely firm tone, and the tone of her words was not a question of constant questioning, but a kind of earnest and earnest instruction.
Gu Yichen looked at her steadfast look, he suddenly smiled, his eyes seemed to have light again, it was not a self-deprecating smile, but a smile reborn from nirvana: "Hehehe!"
"why are you laughing?"
Gu Yichen shook his head and stood up slowly: ??It¡¯s true that I liked you like crazy at the beginning, Mo Xiaoxiao, you are so kind. When you say this, I feel that I am deliberately selling things badly. You are right, I believe you. "
"It's good that you can think so"
Gu Yichen approached her slowly, staring at her closely, Mo Xiaoxiao looked at him vigilantly, his eyes widened: "You, what are you doing."
Seeing Mo Xiaoxiao's vigilance and guard against himself as always, Gu Yichen stood in front of her, first reached out to stroke her head, she subconsciously backed away, at that moment he seemed to understand everything, and didn't force anything , took his hand back tactfully, remained silent for a moment, and smiled again. His smile was not self-deprecating, not disappointed, nor forced, but a kind of relieved smile.
His smile is as relaxed as the wind, like the mood of a moment of calm and breezy.
"I used to think that when I liked someone until I lost myself, it was because of her, because her smile was sweet and her temper was very gentle, so I would force her to give the same love to myself, but now I think, like A person doesn't have to trap her, it doesn't have to make her give the same heart as myself, I have already got encouragement and affirmation from you, so what am I not satisfied with, you affirm me Yes, you are also very gentle to me, even if you look at me without love."
Gu Yichen said calmly, and looked at her with a smile like a spring breeze. At that moment, Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly saw him before, he was still handsome and energetic.
"uncle¡!"
Just at this time, a baby's voice suddenly came from outside the door. The clear voice seemed to be caught in the wind. Gu Yichen slowly turned his head and looked outside the door.
"Quick, go to your uncle's place."
At the door, Lin Yushu and Xiao Er were standing there, Situ Huxi was standing in front of them, Lin Yushu bent down, asking him to go to Gu Yichen.
Situ Hu Xi was dressed very well today, as if he was wearing new clothes. The beige silk fabric was beautifully cut and embroidered on the clothes. He also wore a felt hat. He is very energetic, his eyelashes are as agile as a butterfly, he was smiling at him with his mouth parted, at that moment Gu Yichen was stunned, he looked at the child with mixed feelings in his heart, he seemed to see his sister in a trance, remember When he was a child, Qing Shui was like that, he looked juicy and cute, he pulled himself to call him brother, his sweet smile was like pasting and copying.
"Hurry up, your uncle likes you!"
Situ Hu Xi was not afraid of strangers at all. With a smile all over his face, he walked towards him, stood in front of him and looked up at him, stretched out his hand to pull his sleeve: "Uncle, are you my uncle?"
Gu Yichen looked down at him, he was in a daze for a while, then slowly reached out to touch his head, pinched his apple-like face, his face was full of tenderness and kindness: "Yes, you don't Recognize me! I didn't expect you to grow up so big. You were young before, and you couldn't walk when I hugged you."
"Yeah." He nodded innocently, blinking his eyes again: "I don't know you, but I know you are uncle, mother's brother, right? You came to pick me up, right?"
"Yes, I am mother's brother and your uncle. I am here to pick you up today." Gu Yichen nodded and patted his head. He looked at the little man in front of him, but why didn't he I can't believe that Qingshui's children are so old, but I just feel sorry for him. Both parents died at such a young age. Just like myself, they will have no one to rely on, no relatives, no reason, and only each other's poor people.
"Do you know your name?" Gu Yichen asked softly again.
"Yes." He nodded, with a calm expression on his face, and replied seriously: "My name is Situ Huxi, and I am 5 years old this year. My parents, grandparents, and grandparents are all dead."
After Situ Huxi finished speaking, everyone present was taken aback, and their hearts were shocked. Does this child have a concept of life and death? He spoke calmly, his big eyes blinked, without any emotion at all. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
