Chapter 380
"Yes, Dad is also good at it, don't make any mistakes!" Xia Shiyu nodded slightly and smiled gently: "He may have been a little strict with you, but don't forget that when something happened to you, he fell ill!"
"I know, it was because I was ignorant before, and I always argued with my father, and even wanted to provoke his authority..." Xia Chuqi curled his lips and said with a wry smile: "Thinking about it now, it has never been easy for my father!"
"Yes, after all, our father is both a father and a mother, raised you!" Xia Shiyu pointed at the tip of her nose and joked with amusement: "You have been much naughty since you were young and you always get angry with him!"
"My father was angry twice. Once I changed my major to study mechanical manufacturing, and another time... I probably didn't want to marry Tao Mingxuan against his wishes, and even took Feng Xun home!"
Xia Chuqi stuck out his tongue, and when he said this, he asked the doubts in his heart: "Fifth sister, why do you think my father hates me so much about studying mechanical manufacturing, and even gets angry about my major change?"
"Of course my father doesn't want you to be a tomboy..." Xia Shiyu didn't think this was strange and explained with a smile: "After all, you used to study machines and other things, and your face was always dirty. Of course my father was unhappy!"
"But I know, the facts are not that simple!" Xia Chuqi shook his head, frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice: "Fifth Sister, do you still remember what my mother liked to do during her lifetime?"
"Was my mother gone before my death... I remember that although my mother was a housewife and had no special job, she could accompany her father to play chess, calligraphy and painting, and at the same time she kept the house in order!" Xia Shiyu said this, thinking about her mother's situation at home back then, she didn't feel like she was falling into a beautiful memory: "At that time, my elder brother often went out because he wanted to do antique business, so her mother prepared all kinds of delicious food for him, for fear that he would not eat well outside. In order to practice oil painting and sketching, my second brother, mother,
My dear often accompanied him out. Later, once my second brother had to paint in the night sky, and my mother even accompanied me all night..."
When she said this, she couldn't help but sigh: "Later, our third sister went abroad to participate in a piano competition, and my mother also accompanied her throughout the journey until her third sister was admitted to the Curtis Conservatory of Music!"
"Fifth sister, I'm a little jealous when I hear you say this. My brothers and sisters all grew up with my mother's company, and I have very little memory of my mother!" Xia Chuqi lowered his head and said with some frustration.
"Don't be depressed, you are the youngest in the family. You don't know how happy the whole family was when you were born, even my father!" The fifth sister Xia Shiyu shook her head and smiled, hugged her shoulder and comforted her: "Why did you call you the seventh day of the lunar month? It was also to commemorate the day when she gave birth to you. At that time, my father and mother had decided that you were the last child. I still remember when you were in your infancy, my mother never left her hands.
Father Hou also said that you look the most like your mother, no matter whether it is appearance or temper!"
"How could I be as gentle and virtuous as my mother?" Xia Chuqi waved his hand and said self-deprecatingly: "Fifth Sister, it's understandable to say that my appearance looks like my mother, but my personality is definitely different from my mother, otherwise I wouldn't always make my father angry!"
"Xiao Qi, you probably don't know that although my mother is gentle and virtuous, she treats her family. She is not weak at all outside. I still remember the situation when my mother was brave enough to help an old lady chase a thief!"
Xia Shiyu smiled slightly, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Don't you look like your mother?"
"So my mother is so passionate..." Xia Chuqi stuck out her tongue, and what the old senior Bai said suddenly echoed in her mind.
"You are as smart and quick as your mother when she was young, and have a hot and brave heart..."
Now, after hearing what the fifth sister said, the old senior Bai did not lie to win her trust. So is it true that the other things about her mother mentioned by the old senior Bai is also true?
"Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi?" Xia Shiyu saw that her sister Xiaoqi suddenly fell into deep thought, and reached out to wave her hand and waved her in front of her without any response. She called her several times, and Xia Chuqi came back to her senses.
"Fifth Sister, what did you say just now?" Xia Chuqi looked at Wu Jie Xia Shiyu with a blank expression.
"What were you thinking just now?" Xia Shiyu asked with a funny look.
"It's nothing, I'm still thinking about my mother..." Xia Chuqi said this, got up and walked into the room to pick up his wallet, carefully took out the gold coin, and handed it to his fifth sister Xia Shiyu.
"Fifth Sister, have you seen this gold coin before?"
Xia Shiyu took the gold coin and looked carefully, shook her head and said hesitantly: "I haven't seen it before. Strange, where did you get this gold coin?"
"What an old lady gave me was my mother's relic!" Xia Chuqi shrugged and told the old lady named Bai that she met an old lady in the Empire State Building. She talked to the old lady about her mother's everything she said to the fifth sister.
After Xia Chuqi finished speaking, Xia Shiyu frowned slightly and said in confusion: "I have never seen the old lady you mentioned, let alone heard of it, nor have my father mentioned that my mother has such a friend!"
"My father has never mentioned it, so I want to ask you, Sister Wu..." Xia Chuqi said this, and saw Sister Wu's expression of being confused and sighed unconsciously.
It seems that I can only find out what happened to my mother by myself. I am afraid that none of my brothers and sisters know about it. The only thing that I may know is my father himself!
Xia Shiyu thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoqi, where does the old lady live? I might as well go to see her and I will know whether what she said is true or false!"
Xia Chuqi told her fifth sister about the hotel room she was staying and said, "She said she would contact me in the future, but I don't know how long she will stay in New York with that tour group!"
"No matter what, let's call first to ask about the situation!" Xia Shiyu smiled faintly, picked up her cell phone and directly called the front desk phone of the Trump International Hotel.
"How long did the guest at No. 3022 book a room in the hotel?" Xia Shiyu asked patiently, and after a moment, she frowned: "What? Do you say that lady has checked out last night?"
After confirming the news from the hotel front desk, Xia Shiyu hung up the phone and said to her sister Xia Chuqi: "The old lady you mentioned has checked out, just last night!" "After I finished talking with her yesterday afternoon, I said goodbye. She said something was wrong when she went out, but she never mentioned checking out!" Xia Chuqi frowned and said in confusion: "How come she suddenly left?"
