Chapter 179 The Past
Well, Ou Ruoling followed Ou Zixi back to Ou Zhai, and the two had dinner together.

Today, she is extraordinarily caring, and the relationship between the two of them has returned to the way it was before, putting aside all the unhappiness before, and simply being together for a whole day.

"Thank you very much for accompanying me to pay homage to my mother today." Ou Zixi was surprised that after five years, Xiao Ling became so clear-cut and sensible.

"This is what I should do. In fact, I really want to go back and visit my parents. But I don't know where they were buried. Am I being unfilial compared to you?"

Looking at Ou Zixi, a filial son, brought out her unfilial piety even more.

"Do you want me to find out the address for you?" Ou Zixi always regarded her affairs as his own.

"No need, brother knows. I'll just go back and ask him." Ou Ruoling's gaze was fixed on the candlelight on the dining table.

In her ears, her parents were calling her name, but she couldn't remember their faces.

She lost her memory at the age of eight and lived in Ou Zhai. It is not uncommon for her not to remember the faces of her parents, not to mention that she has not recovered all her memories of the past.

It's just that she will feel very guilty in her heart!

Although her life is a little sad today, she can forget about these troubles for a while and live a whole day without stress.

In the past five years, she has lived a tense life, fearing that the identity of her children will be exposed by the media if she is not careful.

She is a well-known female artist, and the pressure she has to bear is as dazzling as her aura.

Since being protected by Ou Zixi, her pressure has decreased a lot.She even began to believe that Ou Zixi's love for her hadn't changed.

But when she left Ou Zhai and returned home to see the two children, she thought of the past bit by bit.

Those unhappiness from the past came back to her heart, and the existence of the child reminded her of everything about the past that she couldn't forget.

Let alone the Ou family taking the child away from her.

Because of the incident with Ou Zixi's mother, Ou Ruoling woke up the next day and called Ji Yan to ask him to have dinner at home after get off work.

In fact, she needs to ask Ji Yan about something, because she has been avoiding the past.

Since going abroad, she has not mentioned her parents again. Now that she rarely returns to China, she wants to take her children to pay homage to her parents.

In the evening, Ji Yan came to the house for dinner according to the agreed time.It's just that they broke up because of Ou Zixi's relationship last time, so he didn't take the initiative to speak at the dinner table.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was very dull, and he, who was usually talkative, suddenly became silent, which made both Xiaotian and Xiaomei feel uncomfortable.

"Uncle Ji, what's wrong with you today?" The smart Xiaotian saw Ji Yan's strangeness.He looked at Ou Ruoling again in a blink of an eye.

"It's okay, the food tonight is delicious." Ji Yan replied with a stiff smile.

He still couldn't accept that Ou Ruoling was with Ou Zixi again.So when facing her, Ji Yan didn't want to talk much at all.

"What you cook tonight is brother's favorite food." Ou Ruoling knew that brother was doing it for her own good, so she decided to admit her mistake.

But she will not cancel the deal with Ou Zixi just because of her brother's objection.

"Has he bullied you these few days?" Ji Yan asked while eating.

Xiaotian and Xiaomei immediately pricked up their little ears when they heard the word bullying, wanting to hear who this villain is.

"He treats me very well, brother, don't worry." Ou Ruoling replied in a low voice.

"That's good, but we still have to be careful in the future, and we must not..."

"I know." Ou Ruoling didn't want to mention Ou Zixi too much in front of the children.

"It's good to know, let's eat quickly." Ji Yan is Ou Ruoling's only relative in this world, no matter how angry he is, he will eventually forgive her.

After all, emotional matters are sometimes out of control.

"Brother, I want to take the children to worship our parents. If I remember correctly, they should be buried in City B."

As soon as Ou Ruoling finished speaking, Ji Yan's chewing mouth suddenly stopped.She suddenly asked him about his parents, which surprised him a little.

Ji Yan didn't want to mention their past, but since she asked, she had to say it.

"So suddenly? Don't you need to work recently?" Ji Yan asked back.

"No matter how much time you don't have, you have to find time to worship your parents." Ou Ruoling replied.

She was a little surprised that her brother would say that!
"It's in City B. It's just that I don't have time to accompany you back these two days. Let's wait and see in a few days." Ji Yan wanted to perfunctory like this.

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Ou Ruoling to return to that place, in fact, this was also a heartache for him.

"Where is the address?" Ou Ruoling didn't want to wait, she desperately wanted to go back and see her dead parents.

"Wait until I accompany you and go together again. City B has changed a lot now, and you don't know the way. I don't worry about you going back alone."

Ji Yan didn't tell her the address, he wanted to prolong the time, it would be best if Xiao Ling could forget about it.

"Brother, it is very necessary for me to know the address where our parents are buried. After all, I am also their daughter." Ou Ruoling insisted on knowing the address.

But Ji Yanao had no choice but to tell her the address, but he repeatedly emphasized that she must wait for him before going back.

Ou Ruoling verbally agreed, but in fact, she had already decided to take the children to leave the next day after learning the address of her parents' burial.

However, these Ji Yan didn't know about it, so Ou Ruoling took the child and boarded the car to City B the next day.

This is also Xiaotian and Xiaomei's first journey after returning to China. Ou Ruoling's heart is very heavy, but Xiaomei, who is not sensible, seems a little happy.

"Mommy, can we find some delicious places to eat after we pay our respects to our grandparents?" Xiaomei, a snack foodie, gained a lot of weight after returning to China.

The domestic delicacies are too tempting, and her little mouth can't be controlled at all.

"Xiaomei, we are not going on a trip this time, but to visit grandpa and grandma." Xiaotian rolled his eyes.

He saw that Ou Ruoling was in a bad mood all the way, and he guessed that she must be missing her grandparents.

"Xiaotian is right, we are not here to play." Ou Ruoling replied with a serious face.

Xiaomei had no choice but to shut up obediently, not daring to speak.

In fact, she doesn't know the rules in this area very well, after all, she is only a five-year-old child.

"After we go to worship grandpa and grandma, Mommy will take you to eat delicious food." Ou Ruoling looked at Xiaomei and said with a frown.

"Mommy is the best. In fact, I'm also very curious about what grandpa and grandma look like." Xiaomei hugged Ou Ruoling with a smile.

Why doesn't Ou Ruoling want to know what her parents look like?She asked Ji Yan many times if there were any photos, but Ji Yan didn't give her the photos.

She could vaguely feel that Ji Yan didn't really want her to recall those unpleasant things in the past, she felt that he did this for her own good.

After a bumpy journey all morning, they finally arrived at their destination.

Xiaotian was the first to get out of the car, and what came into view was a small village, and there were a few peasant women talking in their native dialect by the side of the road.

Directly in front of them was a brook with an arched bridge over it.Although it is a rural area, the scenery is very beautiful.

"It's so beautiful! It's completely different from the ones we've lived in before." Xiaomei looked at the wild flowers growing along the road and couldn't help but pick one.

"Xiaomei, don't pick flowers randomly." Ou Ruoling immediately stopped her.

"But it's really beautiful, it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful flower." Xiaomei couldn't help but put the flower in front of her nose and smell it.

What she picked was a bright red big red flower, which exudes a faint fragrance.

"I don't know if these flowers are harmful to the body, so I listened to Mommy and threw them away." Ou Ruoling taught.

Xiaomei had no choice but to reluctantly put the flowers beside the flower branches, and took Au Ruoling's hand and walked towards the arch bridge.

Xiaotian has already run ahead, this place is like a paradise, he likes this place very much.

"Is this the place where I lived before?" Ou Ruoling said to himself.

She has lived here for eight years, but she doesn't have the slightest impression of it.She only learned from Ji Yan that the life of their family of four was very hard.

It's just that she was surprised that their home was in such a beautiful small village.

They walked across the arch bridge, and the crystal clear stream under the arch bridge attracted their eyes.

"I really want to live here, Mommy." Xiaotian was extremely excited, and for a moment he forgot the purpose of their visit this time.

Only Ou Ruoling was always thinking about her parents, the address she got from Ji Yan was the address of their hometown, and her parents' grave was on a piece of land near her hometown.

At that time, their parents were seriously ill and sold their land.But Ji Yan bought their hometown back after his career was successful, but he didn't tell Ou Ruoling.

This small village is far from the urban area, and they only have one afternoon to search.

So Ou Ruoling had to put away her thoughts of admiring the beautiful scenery, and asked passers-by on the side of the road the address she was holding in her hand while walking.

After walking for an hour, they still couldn't find the address.

Xiaomei, who was full of energy at the beginning, was already on Ou Ruoling's back for her to carry.

Children who are used to living in the city may find it difficult to adapt to the beautiful scenery in the countryside.

There are beautiful mountains and clear waters here, but there are also many mosquitoes.

Wearing a princess dress, Xiaomei's short white and fat legs were already covered with red bumps from mosquito bites, and she scratched them from time to time.

"Mommy, when can we go back?" Xiaomei's face was full of fatigue, and her big eyes could hardly be opened.

Xiaotian still walked in front, but his speed also slowed down.He was exhausted after walking for an hour.

"If we can't find it today, we'll come and look for it tomorrow." Ou Ruoling was also sweating.

"Mommy, let's sit under that tree for a while." Xiaotian pointed to a big banyan tree in front of him and said.

Ou Ruoling nodded, and took the two children to rest under the tree.

Just at this time, a few peasant women came over, and seeing their thin skin and tender meat did not seem like locals, they asked curiously.

Ou Ruoling took the opportunity to ask about the address given by Ji Yan, and the peasant woman was a little surprised when she heard the address.

Because the address Ou Ruoling asked was the farmer whose family of four died in an accident a long time ago, this made the peasant women panic when they heard it.

From Ji Yan's mouth, Ou Ruoling only knew that she had been sick before, but he didn't say much about it.

Ji Yan has always been tight-lipped about the past, and every time Ou Ruoling asks, he just responds perfunctorily.

So when she saw the abnormal behavior of the peasant woman, she didn't know what was going on.

"Miss, who are you from this family?" one of the peasant women asked cautiously.

"I came back to visit relatives." Ou Ruoling replied without any concealment.

The faces of the peasant women turned pale.

"Visiting relatives? Who are you?" They continued to ask.

Ou Ruoling felt even more strange, she felt that the peasant woman's expression seemed to have a trace of fear, what was going on?
