Yun Mocheng and Xu Jingya sat opposite each other by the fire. As they talked, they quietly observed each other. Although they didn't say it out loud, they sighed in their hearts … and lamented the passing of time.
Xu Jingya thought to herself,
Old!
The former hero in her heart, the man who was brave and resourceful when she first met him, was now full of vicissitudes of life, and there were a few strands of silver hair hanging from his temples.
Yun Mocheng sighed,
She changed!
The domineering and domineering girl when they were newlyweds, the stunning "Fifth Miss" on the beach, had lost her sharpness at this moment. Her back was a little hunched. Only her delicate facial features and fair skin could still be traced back to the past.
Time was like a sharp knife. No matter who it was … whether they were in good or bad times, it would mercilessly cut them twice.
Xu Jingya was open-minded and sighed softly, "Old Yun, what happened between us is already in the past. I won't comment on it. We've been husband and wife for so long. Even if we're separated, I won't say anything bad. This is not the purpose of my visit today! I came to you because of Mi Xaing 'er. Maybe in your eyes, you think that she's not suitable for Tiger, but I think the opposite … "
"…"
"I think that people will only reveal their true nature when they're in adversity. Especially in this era, when life is full of ups and downs, you can see the value of the people around you more clearly! Mi Xaing 'er sacrificed so much for Tiger … This kind of girl is the most precious! "
Yun Mocheng frowned, "I didn't say that she's not precious! I only said that her conditions are not comparable to Tiger's. Her family … "
"These external things can be changed sooner or later! You have to look at the nature of a person … Take Jiang Tingting for example. She's famous and professional, but is she in charge of human affairs? In my opinion, she's vicious! She can't be compared to Mi Xaing 'er at all! "
At the mention of Jiang Tingting …
Of course, Yun Mocheng was in a dilemma. One was his stepdaughter, and the other was his own son … He felt that his position was awkward, and he didn't know what to say. He could only give a perfunctory reply, "Tingting's matter … hasn't the organization already dealt with it?"
Xu Jingya snorted coldly, "From what you're saying … this matter is over?"
"What can I do if I don't go? Tingting broke her leg, she was fired, and the Public Security Bureau filed a case. I think … she fell from the clouds to the mud... this is the biggest punishment, punishment. what can I do? I can't just kill her? "
He was a man. and he didn't want to mention it... "Tingting didn't do anything. didn't do it.. and Tingting didn.... and Tingting didn't. didn't do it. I. I. and Tingting didn't do anything wrong. I let's..
"No! . and I can't just let it go! "
Yun Mocheng raised his voice. "The person who really harmed Mi Xaing 'er … is Gu Qianxing. He has already been sentenced!"
He was used to being in a high position. When he spoke, his words were sharp. "Jingya, it's not that I want to criticize you, but it's been so many years. You still can't change your 'gang' habits? Are you going to let it go? What else do you want? Revenge? How? "
Xu Jingya retorted sharply, "I don't think I'm a 'gang'! I just think that evil people should be punished! Good people should have good karma! Old Yun, you should stand on Mi Xaing 'er's side and work harder for her case. Let her and Tiger reunite as soon as possible! "
Yun Mocheng waved his hand. "I'm not on anyone's side! I have my own position! I'm different from you. You're a free person. You do whatever you want, and you're carefree and willful! I can't do that. I have to consider the future of my family and my children. Under the premise that I don't violate my principles, I have to try my best to give my children the best life and make the best choice for them. As a father, is that wrong? "
He probably felt that he had been wronged. He probably had a lot of things to say all these years. Today, in front of the children's mother, he might as well say it all … and also express his previous position. "I have my own difficulties. For example, the matter between Jing Qi and Tong Che. Although Jing Qi didn't say it clearly, I know in my heart that she still can't forgive me! But tell me, she was only 20 years old at that time. She didn't have any status, and she went to such a faraway place with Tong Che. What if something happened? Who would be responsible? How would I explain it to you? "
"…"
"It's not that I'm selfish, but as a parent, you have to consider the responsibility on your shoulders! If anyone says that I'm narrow-minded, I'll definitely not admit it. When it comes to matters regarding the Party and the country, I've always been at the forefront! In the past, when I was behind enemy lines, I went to the prison of the People's Party of X to protect my comrades. When I was charging on the battlefield, I've also protected my comrades in a hail of bullets … "
Yun Mocheng continued to speak with conviction, "But it's different when it comes to the children. I'm deeply attached to them. Everything I do is for their own good. It's all for their benefit. I have a clear conscience! I won't accept your accusations! "
He was getting excited!
Xu Jingya didn't spoil him either. "What are you shouting for? You don't have to say it so righteously, do you? Did I say that I'm going to accuse you? Forget it! I'm not in the mood to argue with you. I'm only asking you one thing now. Are you going to help me with Mi Xaing 'er? I'm not asking you to do anything overboard. I just hope that you can supervise your subordinates in the military and thoroughly investigate this matter as soon as possible! "
"…"
When Xu Jingya saw that he hadn't said anything, he simply snorted. "Old Yun, you keep saying that everything you do is for the children. Then let's start from the children's perspective … Mi Xaing 'er has already given birth to a son for a tiger. The child is already eight months old. Can you bear to see them separated and unable to reunite as husband and wife? Don't you want to see your grandson with your own eyes? "
Ah?
Children?
Upon hearing this, Yun Mocheng couldn't sit still. "You … how do you know all this?"
"It's very simple. I feel that our family owes Mi Xaing 'er! So, I've always been by her side and tried my best to make it up to her! I've always been a person who draws a clear line between gratitude and grudges. She's a 20-year-old girl who gave birth to a grandson for me. I have to treat her differently and take care of her. "
"…"
"Also, Old Yun, let me give you a piece of advice. You have to respect the children's choice! Don't force your wishes on them. This will only make you further and further away from them! Let me remind you that this is the most critical moment. If you don't do your best on Mi Xaing 'er, you'll lose the tiger forever in the future! "
Xu Jingya stood up. "I'm not a person who dawdles. I've made my intentions clear. If you don't listen to me, there's nothing I can do! Old Yun, I hope that you'll take care of yourself. Don't let the day come when you're a giant in your work … but be abandoned by your family! You'll be alone for life! "
She was really a straightforward person. Once she finished speaking, she didn't beat around the bush … She turned around, pushed open the door, and disappeared into the night.
Yun Mocheng stared blankly at her back until she couldn't be seen anymore. Then, he retracted his gaze and turned to look at the fire in the room … and fell into deep thought.
When Xu Jingya returned home …
Feng Xiuzhu was already asleep, but Mi Xaing 'er was sitting in the room with a small lamp lit, waiting for her.
When she saw her, she quickly stood up. "What took you so long? I was a little worried! "
She poured her a cup of hot water … Knowing that Xu Jingya had low blood sugar, she added a spoonful of brown sugar into the cup. "Here! Drink it while it's hot to warm your body! "
This action warmed Xu Jingya's heart. She took the cup and smiled. "You're such a meticulous girl. You really know how to dote on people! No wonder the tiger misses you so much! "
Mi Xaing 'er pursed her lips and smiled. "What? Isn't it just a cup of hot water? That's all it got from you? Is this considered meticulous? What about when you took care of me? When I was in confinement, I didn't wash anything or eat anything cold. You were even worried that I wouldn't have a good rest, so Feng Shou would sleep with you at night … Although I don't say it out loud, I remember it in my heart! "
Xu Jingya didn't say anything else.
She smiled and held Mi Xaing 'er's hand, sat by the bed, and gently sipped the brown sugar water in the cup. It was sweet in her mouth, and she felt happy in her heart.
Mi Xaing 'er turned to look at her expression. "Mom, from the looks of it … Did you meet Commander Yun?"
"Of course. Is there anything I can't do?"
"Then … How was your chat?"
Xu Jingya sighed softly, and her gaze was a little empty. "I think … Old Yun has changed! I'm not talking about the change in his appearance, but in his heart! He's probably been in a high position for a long time and only thinks that peace is a blessing! As for me, I'm still thinking about how to charge forward and change my fate. So, whether it's in terms of views or status, we have nothing in common anymore! "
"So, you're … a little disappointed?"
"It's not that I'm disappointed! In fact, I've long been prepared for this in my heart! After all, our experiences are different. After being separated for so many years, experience will change a person! Now, I'm afraid we don't even have a common language! What he thinks is completely different from what I think! "
"…"
"However, I still understand Yun Mocheng! Although he's a commander now, in fact, he's also a farmer. There are still some deep-rooted old ideas in his mind … He always thinks that there are three kinds of unfilial people, and having no descendants is the worst. When I mentioned 'Feng Shou' to him, his eyes lit up! Believe me, he won't let Tiger fight alone! He still wants to see his grandson! "
Xu Jingya and Yun Laohu were very similar … They both looked reckless but were actually very careful people. They were also very observant and could immediately grasp the key points of a matter.
Mi Xaing 'er stopped talking … In the depths of her heart, rehabilitation and reversing the case were secondary. As long as her husband was safe and sound, it was fine.
Xu Jingya put down the cup and sat cross-legged on the bed. She bent down and looked at her grandson seriously. "Have you fed 'Feng Shou' milk?"
"Yes!"
"How much did you feed her?"
"The same as usual!" Mi Xaing 'er looked at her coquettishly. "Mom, don't worry. You've only been out for a few hours … The child will be fine!"
Only then did Xu Jingya let out a deep breath. "Do you know that this is called 'distant kinship'? Now, as long as I'm away from 'Feng Shou' for half a day, I feel uncomfortable all over. I know that you'll take good care of the child, but I still miss him! "
She kissed the child's little face a few times. She couldn't hide the affection in her eyes. "Hey, little girl, I don't want to say this, but 'Feng Shou' looks exactly like Tiger when he was young. It's as if they were printed from the same mold. No wonder Tiger knew at first glance … that this is his son."
Mi Xaing 'er was a little dissatisfied. "I think the child looks like me!"
Xu Jingya pretended to be serious and glared at her. "Don't argue with me! You haven't seen Tiger when he was young. "
She pursed her lips and smiled again. She seemed to casually change the topic. "Hey, Xiang 'er, let me ask you something! I remember you said that there was a person named Tan Si who wanted to disfigure your face. In the end, he accidentally injured Tong Che. What happened to that case? "
"Huh? Why did you bring this up all of a sudden? "
"I'm just casually chatting!"
Mi Xaing 'er didn't take it to heart. She told the truth. "After that, that person with the surname Tan died. He said that he was poisoned to death. As for whether it was suicide or homicide, the case hasn't been decided until now … because there were no witnesses!"
"Didn't his family look for him?"
Mi Xaing 'er said indifferently, "After I came back this time, I also asked Liu Dongfeng about this matter. I heard that Tan Si's family is all out of town. Shen Xiaofeng is the only relative in the city. She has been supervising the follow-up of this matter!"
Xu Jingya still had questions. "Then … according to Tiger's character, he'll keep investigating!"
Mi Xaing 'er didn't think so. "Where would he have the time and energy to do so? Ever since Tan Si died, these cases … Later, when things were slightly more stable, he was transferred to Mount T again. He was so busy that he didn't even have the time to return to the provincial capital! "
Xu Jingya muttered as if she was talking to herself, "Do you think that Tiger hasn't come back all this time has something to do with Shen Xiaofeng?"
Mi Xaing 'er didn't hear clearly. "What did you say?"
"Nothing! Xiang 'er, if you see Tiger again, ask him about this matter when you have the time. I don't know why, but I just feel that there's something going on here! "
