Cute Baby from Heaven: Overlord Stand-in Mommy

Chapter 108 Xiaoling, be my girlfriend? 2
Ever since, my aunt wanted to make up a whole number for Zhao Kai: one hundred thousand.If you really want to make up, you can still make up enough, but seeing Xiaoling come back now, although she is not her daughter, at least she grew up under the same roof, just like her own daughter.

"I... don't have much savings, only about [-] yuan, and I will withdraw it to you later."

My aunt immediately became happier: "Ah, good! Good..."

Grandma glared at her, and said angrily, "You're really welcome. When Xiaoling was young, why didn't you see her as a daughter, but now it's easy to pick up money."

The aunt suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "This...Xiaoling, I borrowed it from you, is it okay?"

Speaking of borrowing, over the years, my aunt has taken a lot of money from Xiaoling.She only said that half of the 10 yuan that Zhuo Yuming brothers gave her was spent when she was in college, and the other half was given to her family. .

"I earn money to live a better life for grandma and old uncle, and it is also for grandma and old uncle."

Chen Xiaoling didn't like her aunt since she was a child, but she still respected her aunt.It's just that every time she thinks of her nieces and nephews who are also juniors, the aunt treats her natal juniors completely differently. Every time there are children over there, she always brings out delicious food for them, but she doesn't take the initiative to give it to her.For her, she is only for grandma and uncle, because in her heart these two are her relatives.Thinking of Zhao Kai's scheme against her last time, his heart was filled with panic.If he knew that she was going home for the new year, Zhao Kai would not dare to come back.

When shopping, Chen Xiaoling bought a scarf and a down jacket for her aunt out of courtesy.But I bought several items for my grandma and my uncle. In the huge suitcase, except for two gifts from my aunt that don’t take up much space, the rest belong to my grandma and my uncle.And in her bag are two sets of winter clothes she bought for herself.

"Daughter-in-law, look at Xiaoling's appearance, she hasn't eaten yet, make her something to eat."

"Good! Good!"

My aunt responded, picked up her things and went to the kitchen, her eyes were still on the other things in the opened suitcase, but apart from men's leather shoes, hats, gloves, clothes, etc., she really didn't look at those women's things Eye-catching, because that style is for the elderly to wear.

Zhao Chunfu came back very late that day.As soon as he came back, Xiaoling brought him the package of gifts, which made my aunt envious.His natal family also has several nephews and nieces, as well as a few nephews, but none of them are as promising as Xiaoling. Can't deliver.

In the evening, Xiaoling and grandma huddled together on the same bed.Because it is in the county town and I live in a building, I stopped squatting on the kang a few years ago.

Chen Xiaoling said in a low voice: "Grandma, I want to see the family portrait of my parents, sister and me."

"Xiao Nizi..." This is Chen Xiaoling's baby name. Here, most of the children will have a baby name.

Xiaoling smiled and stabbed her in grandma's arms.Grandma is old and her back is rickety.When she was young, grandma's back was a little rickety, but now it's even worse.Grandma will always be her favorite grandma in her heart. Although she is a grandma, she is as kind to her as a mother. "Grandma, I just want to see it! But it seems that I haven't seen it since I was ten years old. Where did you put it?"

Grandma caressed Xiaoling's hair distressedly: "Are you envious of others having fathers and mothers again?"

"I have grandma who loves me. So grandma must live a long life and don't leave me alone."

She wanted to cry a little, but she didn't dare to think about it. If one day her grandma was gone, what would she look like? She would cry so hard that she would die.

Since Chen Xiaoling wants to know, grandma won't keep it a secret.After all, she has grown up, and she can miss her parents and those relatives who left her too early.

Grandma pointed to the cabinet of the old-fashioned desk with a finger like a dead branch, Chen Xiaoling took out a photo album and flipped through it one by one, before her high school graduation photo, grandma said in an old and sad voice: "It's here! "

Chen Xiaoling uncovered the film, and took out a photo that had already changed color. In the 80s, color photos became popular in China, but at that time, the color photos would have a huge color difference after being washed out, unlike the current color processing.The photos are sealed in plastic, maybe grandma was worried that the photos would be damaged, so she made some special treatment.

In the photo, there are the same men and women, the same girl, and baby girl as in the oil painting, except that the appearance of the adults in the oil painting is somewhat blurred, but the photo in hand vividly reproduces the scene painted in the oil painting. The most striking thing is the baby girl and Each girl wears a bowknot head flower on her head.

so similar!It is almost drawn according to this painting, even if it is not 100% like, at least it is [-]% similar to that oil painting.

Did this scene appear at the end of Ai Ting's life?Zhuo Yuming once said that Ai Ting lost her memory and only dreamed of this scene in her last days.Even if it is a dream, it is just a blurred picture.If it is too similar, does it mean that Ai Ting has recovered her memory?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoling was taken aback by her guess.She really didn't understand why Ai Ting didn't recognize her if she really recovered her memory.If Ai Ting hadn't recovered her memory, even if it was a dream that was too clear, there would be no reason to draw "Family Portrait" so similarly.

"Grandma, did my sister really die back then?"

Turning her head abruptly, seeing the pained grandma, Chen Xiaoling regretted asking such a question.Since she was a child, she was most afraid of her grandma being angry and sad, so she studied hard and wanted to repay her grandma's dedication with excellent grades.

"If Xiaolei hadn't died, she would be 31 on May [-]th this year! She's more than a year older than Xiaokai."

"Grandma, I'm sorry, I made you sad again."

Grandma didn't mean to blame her, and said in a calm voice: "On the sixth day of the first month of 1987, a major traffic accident occurred in the Hualu Highway section of Nanhai Province. A long-distance passenger vehicle collided with a large truck. On the eighth day of the first month In the morning, the police came to our house and told your uncle and me the bad news. It was your uncle who went to deal with the funeral. When he came back, he brought back only your mother's ashes. At that time, your uncle said, Both your parents and sister were killed. Your father’s ashes were taken away by your aunt and uncle in Sichuan... Because thinking of your father’s hometown in Sichuan and his parents and sister, your uncle didn’t take the insurance compensation..."

Under such circumstances, both grandma and uncle insisted on keeping her in the north to grow up.When Chen Xiaoling was young, she had seen her aunt visit her twice, but after a long time, everyone's feelings faded, and now she can't remember her aunt's appearance at all.When she was in the sixth grade of elementary school, news came from Sichuan that her grandfather had also passed away.After grandpa passed away, I lost contact with my aunt.All I know is that my aunt's family has a cousin who is a few months older than her. Now, after so many years, that cousin must have grown up.Ruuo, walking on the street one day, met that cousin, even Xiaoling didn't recognize her.She couldn't even remember what her aunt looked like, so how could she know a cousin she had never met before.

When she calmed down, she compared her family portrait with the paintings on her mobile phone, and the more she compared, the more confused and confused she became.She remembered that when she was in college, a professor of psychology once said that everyone can remember things at different ages. Some people can remember things at two or three years old; while others may not start to remember things until they are six or seven years old.

Chen Xiaoling belongs to the type with relatively early memories. She can recall things when she was three or four years old. Dudu didn't give it to her; they gave each of them a lot of candies, but only gave her two... probably from that time on, my aunt left an impression on Chen Xiaoling: my aunt didn't like her.So since childhood, she never pestered her aunt.She clings to her grandma and uncle. In her emotional world, grandma plays the role of mother, while the old uncle plays the role of father.There is a parent-teacher meeting, and every time either grandma or uncle attends.

The things that stay in my childhood memories are the most impressive things.Once you recall, you can only remember the general idea, but not the details.Ai Ting's painting is too similar to "Family Portrait". The color, pattern and style of the bow are exactly the same. Even the appearance of the parents are [-] to [-]% similar. The baby in the mother's arms is painted vividly.This is not an approximation, but a detailed one.

The more I think about it, the more strange it is that Ai Ting has lost her memory, but she just drew "Family Portrait" very similarly.For people with amnesia, even if they recall some fragments, it is relatively hazy. When it is too clear and delicate, what does it mean?
Chen Xiaoling didn't inquire about anything from her grandmother, and all she saw was a plastic-enclosed photo.The next day, she took the photos to the typing and copying department, and asked the clerk to scan and print the photos for her.

Looking at the photo in her hand, she decided to ask her uncle about the situation back then.

"Xiaoling, what can't you talk about at home?" Before Zhao Chunfu went out this morning, Chen Xiaoling stopped him: "Do you have time after get off work at noon? I want to treat my uncle to tea." He could tell at a glance that Xiao Ling has something to do.

There were two and a half hours to go home for dinner at noon, and the old uncle hurried to the teahouse where Xiaoling met.

Chen Xiaoling asked the waiter to make a cup of Pu'er, Zhao Chunfu's favorite drink.At his age, it is really not easy for him to be retired and still work outside the home.She was afraid that her uncle would be worried, so she said straight to the point: "Old uncle, did my sister really die in a car accident? When you and my aunt and uncle went to Nanhai Province to deal with the funeral, you really saw my sister's body." ?”

Zhao Chunfu was slightly taken aback: "Why do you ask about this?"

"Just tell me, uncle, I've grown up now."

Zhao Chunfu didn't understand why Chen Xiaoling asked about that matter after more than 20 years. "Did you know something?"

"Uncle..."

Zhao Chunfu said: "My uncle watched you grow up. I don't know what kind of temperament you are. Tell me, what happened?"

She doesn't plan to tell the old uncle, after more than 20 years, if she tells her, it will make her relatives suffer again.If Ai Ting is really her sister, they will be very happy.But they knew that Ai Ting passed away in March 2011, and they would feel heartbroken again.

"Uncle, I just want to know. You tell me."

Zhao Chunfu didn't want to mention that matter again.Although more than 20 years have passed, I still feel sad when I think of the accidents of my sister Zhao Chunni and brother-in-law Chen Wenqiang.He doesn't have many brothers and sisters, just one sister, and the relationship has always been very good.

Chen Xiaoling acted coquettishly: "Uncle, just tell me, tell me, I want to know."

Unable to withstand Chen Xiaoling's repeated begging, he agreed. "When your aunt and I rushed to Nanhai Province, the remains of your parents had already been parked in the funeral home. I remember that it was already the eleventh day of the first lunar month when the police took us to the Huacheng Public Security Bureau."

"In addition to us, there are other family members of the victims who rushed from all over the north. Your aunt and I went to claim the remains of your parents. Later, we did not see your sister's body and we also asked the police. They said, what happened? The location of the incident was on a section called Gaojiawan Bridge, and there was a big river under the bridge. When an accident happened, someone in the car was thrown under the bridge and into the river. Although the local public security bureau organized the people to salvage it for three days and three nights, But there are still two bodies that have not been recovered. One is your sister, and the other is said to be a young man in his 20s."
