Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 387 Brother-in-law! (first update)
Beijing.

In a courtyard of a certain hilltop villa, summer flowers are in full bloom, and a few butterflies are dancing.

There is a swing in the yard, and a well-dressed woman with delicate makeup is sitting on the swing, looking at her phone motionlessly.

Her formerly long hair has been coiled up.

Standing beside him was a burly woman, waiting for orders from the woman on the swing at any time.

The woman looked at the phone quietly, and suddenly there was a "bang", the phone slipped and fell to the ground.

The woman didn't move, and the woman who was waiting quietly walked over quickly, picked up the phone, and handed it back to the woman on the swing.

"Miss, do you want to turn the page?" the woman asked.

"No need." The woman on the swing said hoarsely.

Her throat muscles had shrunk, and her voice was no longer as clear and pleasant as it used to be. After a while, she couldn't even make a hoarse voice.

At this time, a person ran towards the yard, panting slightly: "Miss..., there are guests at home, and they are here to look for you."

The woman on the swing didn't move, didn't turn her head, and said hoarsely: "If it's not an important guest, I won't go."

"Yes...it's a man, and he's holding a child, and he says the child's name is Xinxin..."

Hearing, the woman on the swing still didn't move, but two lines of tears burst out of her eyes instantly.

"Go ahead," she said.

So, the burly woman who was waiting beside her came to her side, helped her pack up the mobile phone in her hand, put it in her pocket, then picked her up and put her on the wheelchair next to her.

She seemed lighter again.The burly woman was thinking as she pushed her away.

After passing a secluded stone road, a long pool, a melon shed full of pergolas, and a lawn, a group of people came to the main hall of the villa.

There were several people sitting in the main hall: Bai Qiming with gray hair, Cheng He who was holding a child, and a young man with delicate features.

On the coffee table in the middle of the living room, there are some gifts from Cheng Heti.

Speaking of which, this was the first time he met his father-in-law.He didn't even know that he had a father-in-law.

However, the faces of the few people in the living room were not very good, and no one spoke.

Cheng Xinxin didn't know anything. She sat on her father's lap and looked around. She felt that the house here seemed to be bigger than her own. There were many bright lights hanging from the ceiling.

She stretched out her little hand, pointed to one of the pink lotus-shaped chandeliers, and said, "Dad, look at that lamp is so beautiful."

She just followed what her father told her, calling her "grandpa" and "uncle", but just like countless "uncles", "aunties", "brothers" and "sisters", she didn't take it to heart.

The atmosphere in the living room became more and more depressing.

Until the wheelchair was pushed in, Cheng He froze immediately, and could hardly believe his eyes.

That's her?
He stood up with the child in his arms and walked towards her.

Bai Qian's tears welled up again silently.She had imagined tens of millions of times that the man she chose would appear in front of her again.

But she knew it was just an assumption.

She made the decision to leave by herself, and didn't tell him any news, she just didn't want him to come over.

Didn't expect him to come!
Cheng He's hair is choked. The girl in the pink woolen dress back then followed them for a night walk because she was afraid of the darkness of the alley. Her long black hair was messed up by the autumn wind. She was such a bright girl. .

Now, she is emaciated, sitting motionless in a wheelchair, and all the muscles outside her clothes have shrunk. Even with delicate makeup on her face, it is difficult to hide the shrinking of her facial muscles.

Her hair was originally black and long, but now it's thinning, so she had to coil it up to make it look a little thicker.

The bright and beautiful girl who loved to laugh so much in the past, now that she has become like this, her heart must be very painful.

How did she get here in the past few years?

Cheng He's throat was choked, but he couldn't say what he wanted to say, and his tears also slid down.

Back then when she left without a sound, he couldn't find her. He hated and even cursed her very much, but he didn't think about what kind of life she was living.

He put Cheng Xinxin down, led her over, and said, "Xinxin, this is mom."

Cheng Xinxin kept her eyes wide open, looking at the stranger in the wheelchair.She is so thin, her face is sunken in, she doesn't move, she looks a little scary.

She stood where she was, not wanting to go any further, but her father told her that this was her mother.

She burst into tears all of a sudden, turned around and threw herself on her father's lap, and opened her arms: "Daddy hug, daddy hug..."

Bai Qian's tears gushed out like water breaking a bank, and she said hoarsely, "You shouldn't have brought her here."

If she could, she wanted to turn her face away, not wanting to see the child seeing herself scared, but she couldn't even turn her face away.

That's why she left their father and daughter.

Cheng He picked up his daughter, patted her on the back and said, "Don't be afraid."

He hugged the child, walked towards the wheelchair, squatted down, gently grabbed the withered arm, and an invisible golden breath passed over.

He looked at her and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Bai Qian couldn't stop crying.

He wiped her tears and said, "Don't cry. Go, I'll take you home."

"Do not……"

"You used to want to live a free life in the mountain village the most. Let's go. I'm ready."

"Do not……"

Cheng He put one arm behind her back and pulled her into his arms in the wheelchair.To tell you the truth, she was so skinny to the bone, a little diabolical, not as comfortable as holding her back then.

He wants to make her fat.

……

The family of three met in bursts of tears, and it took a long time to calm down.

At dinner time, the Bai family arranged a sumptuous dinner. This was the first time the Bai family entertained their son-in-law.

This was just a family banquet, and there were only the previous people at the dinner table, no one was called.

Cheng Xinxin was very cautious, stuck to her father like glue, and refused to sit and eat by herself.

In a completely unfamiliar place, she seemed to be at ease only by sitting on her father's lap.

Bai Qiming's expression remained silent, he did not speak, and ate his dinner quietly.His expression was neither embarrassing nor welcoming.

Compared with him, Cheng Xinxin's uncle, Bai Xingjun, was much more polite. He kept picking up food for Cheng Xinxin, and teased her enthusiastically, "Xinxin, eat more."

A young man in his twenties, his eyebrows and eyes are [-]% similar to that of Bai Qian back then, with delicate features and cheerful personality.

Cheng He said to his daughter, "Xinxin, thank you uncle."

"Thank you, uncle." Cheng Xinxin mumbled while chewing.

"Hey, you're so good. Uncle will give you a gift later."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xinxin became interested, and asked in a milky voice, "What gift is it?"

"Then what do you like?"

"I like ba la ba la Xiao Moxian."

"Okay, uncle will take you to buy it tomorrow. You can buy so much that you can't hold it in your arms, okay?"

"it is good."

At the dinner table, only these two people kept making noises, which made the room even more quiet.

Bai Qian couldn't eat, but just sat next to her for company. She stared intently at the father and daughter across from her - she could only sit directly opposite, if she sat next to her, she couldn't even turn her head, so she wouldn't be able to see them.

At this time, she was still as if in a dream, and she couldn't believe that the big and small sitting in front of her were the people she missed day and night.

To be able to look at them again is enough in this life.

Cheng He looked at her, feeling uncomfortable. He moved his chopsticks a few times out of etiquette as a guest, and didn't feel much about eating.

While eating, Cheng Xinxin looked at "Mom" curiously, then she raised her head and asked in a low voice, "Dad, why doesn't Mommy eat?"

In fact, she still knows a little about the word mother.There is a mother in Cheng Ximei's family. Her mother is too fierce and always yells at people.

Cheng Baogen also has a mother in his family. His mother always urges him to do his homework and beats him until he cries.I didn't expect my "mother" to be like this.

It seems a bit weird.

Cheng He gently stroked her little head, and said, "Mom is sick and can't eat. When she recovers, I'll eat with you, okay?"

Cheng Xinxin had a half-knowledge, and then said to the mother opposite: "Mom, you can't be picky eaters. Only by not being picky eaters can you be in good health and not get sick."

This is what Dad told her.

Now, her small tone is like that of a little old man, but her voice is still a little soft.

She still couldn't let go, and spoke timidly.

Bai Qian's eyes were red again.

She actually didn't want to cry. Now that the muscles of her face have shrunk, it must be uglier and scarier when she cries.She really wanted to answer with a smile: "Thank you baby for your concern, mom must have a good meal."

But her facial muscles were already stiff, and she couldn't smile.Her voice is also very hoarse now, and her voice is also unpleasant. She is afraid of scaring the child.

Cheng He really shouldn't bring children here!
A meal is finished in an extremely unnatural atmosphere.After the meal, Bai Xingjun came over to tug Cheng Xinxin, and said, "Let's go, uncle will take you to play, okay?"

Cheng Xinxin avoided him and hugged her father's leg.

It's okay to give food, to give gifts, but not to take away.

At this moment, Bai Qiming suddenly said: "Xiao Cheng, this is your first time here, I will show you around."

In fact, he didn't say much all day today.He has been silent since he suddenly received a call from Cheng He to bring his child to visit.

Cheng He suddenly said that he would come to visit, he thought for a while, but still did not refuse.

Bai Qian's situation is like this, it is good for her to see the child again for the last time.

However, apart from not rejecting Cheng He's visit, he didn't say anything more.Until Cheng He came and greeted him politely, he seldom spoke.

Seeing his appearance, Cheng He didn't ask any more questions.When he was waiting for Bai Qian in the living room earlier, he was sitting in the living room almost like that.

Now, Bai Qiming suddenly said that he wanted to show him around, and he probably had something to say.

It just so happened that Cheng He also had a lot of questions to ask.It's just that when he saw Xiaoqian's appearance earlier, he didn't ask anything on the spot.

He patted Cheng Xinxin lightly, and said, "Honey, uncle took you to play, it's okay, uncle likes you very much."

After hearing what her father said, Cheng Xinxin looked at Bai Xingjun again.

Bai Xingjun, who looked very similar to Bai Qian, pulled Cheng Xinxin warmly and said, "Brother-in-law, I'll take her around here to have a look around, she won't run far."

The kid's tone was natural and straightforward, it didn't look like he was pretending, and he seemed to welcome him more than Bai Qiming.

Cheng He was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, nodded and said, "Okay."
