Chapter 86 Where is the Sacred
He Manjun comes to the dock every day, waiting for him to come back.
The ship was waiting, but he didn't.
Seeing that Uncle Wu got off the boat, Bai Heting could not see her. She came forward and asked anxiously: "Uncle Wu, where is the young master?"
"Grandma, young master has not come back." Uncle Wu's voice could not hide his trembling.
"I haven't come back, what does it mean to not come back?"
Her heart skipped a beat and she didn't dare to think about the bad things at all.
Uncle Wu told her the whole story: "That's how it is. We didn't wait until the evening to wait for the teenager to come back. At that time, we saw the island military police searching the dock. In order to ensure the safety of the cargo, I had to let the shipkeeper drive the ship back first."
As soon as she heard "the island military police searching the dock", her ears clamored, as if they were stabbed by a sharp needle, her pretty face turned pale, and suddenly her body suddenly became scattered and almost fell down.
Uncle Wu quickly reached out to hold her, but found that she was trembling, so he let her sit on the ground, and said comforting her: "Grandma, don't be too anxious. The young man has his own appearance and will definitely be able to come back safely."
She sat in a daze, without saying a word.
When Uncle Wu saw it, she was already in tears.
"Grandma, are you okay?" Uncle Wu was at a loss for a moment.
Silently wiped away a handful of tears, she forced herself to the ground, stood up slowly, and murmured with sobs: "Let's go back, let's ask the relatives in Shanghai by telegram, and ask them if Heting has ever found them..."
Before he finished speaking, tears fell on the ground in the blink of an eye.
She can't collapse, at least not now.
Her husband, her children, and the two elders in the family all need her...
...
Since then, she began her long journey of finding her husband and inquire about his whereabouts.
The days also entered the wettest and coldest winter season.
"Squeak..."
The door of the void was slowly pushed open, and there was a ragged man standing outside the door, with a dirty and torn quilt behind him.
She looked and identified hard.
Gradually, a long-lost smile appeared on her haggard face: "Heting..."
"Xiaoman..." He stepped forward and hugged her tightly in his arms.
She snuggled in his arms, and she came back toward her husband whom I thought of.
Just come back!
Just come back!
The feelings that had been amassed for a long time finally burst out. She hugged Bai Heting hard, for fear that he would leave again.
Looking at him as thin as a beggar, she choked and twitched in pain: "You're suffering."
"It's nothing to be able to come back, but you are suffering for this family." He gently stroked her hair, and his sunken eyes, with a glimmer of joy.
She shook her head and hugged him tightly.
As long as you can come back, no matter how hard or tired you are, it will be sweet.
"Xiaoman, I'll show you something."
He picked up the scissors and cut the dirty and broken quilt open.
As the quilt was cut open, the gorgeous velvet fabric high heels caught her eye.
In an instant, her tears burst out like a dam.
Heting, you are so stupid!
In the evening, after settling down, she opened the wardrobe, took out the summer cheongsam and put it on, and then put on the high heels she brought back after hardships.
He sat by the bed, looked at her quietly, and kept saying, "It looks good, it looks good in whatever you wear."
That day, if he got the goods and got on the ship directly, he might not have tuberculosis.
Perhaps today, he can still sit beside her and celebrate her birthday with her.
Thinking of this, He Manjun's tears fell on the back of his hand with a clatter.
"Mom, today is your birthday party. You can't cry all the time!" Shu Zhen said softly.
"I'm thinking about the past, I feel a little bit affectionate, it's okay." He Manjun wiped his tears and smiled kindly. She said to Bai Yiyao beside her: "Yiyao, accompany me to the inner hall, I want to replace this fragrant cloud cheongsam."
"good."
Bai Yiyao helped He Manjun back to the house to change to a cheongsam.
Everyone was surprised and thought that Old Lady Bai was ill and went back to the house to rest.
Bai Zhenhua and his wife explained to all the guests: "My mother is just going to change her clothes."
Hearing this, everyone felt relieved.
moment.
He Manjun, who had changed into Xiangyunsha cheongsam, put one hand on Bai Yiyao's hand and walked back to the hall with elegant steps.
Although he was in his seventies, he still had the style of a lady from a noble family in his every frown and smile.
She felt as if she was back when she first wore a cheongsam in Xiangyunshi, her charm remained unabated.
"Mom, your cheongsam really looks good for you! You are wearing this cheongsam, which looks really good." Shu Zhen praised repeatedly.
He Manjun was very satisfied with this cheongsam: "Zhenhua, where did you make this cheongsam?"
"Mom, I asked Master Su from Jinxiu Cheongsam Shop to make it. He took a few glances at your photos and made it. I was worried at that time that it would not fit. Now it seems that I was too worried." Bai Zhenhua admired Su An's cheongsam skills and was overwhelmed.
"So amazing!" She was surprised.
"Master Su is not only good at making cheongsams, but also has excellent skills in placing buckles."
"After you said this, I really want to get to know Master Su if I have a chance another day."
"Mom, Master Su is here to attend your birthday party today. Why don't I invite him here and let's sit together and get to know each other?" Bai Zhenhua had a wishful thinking in his heart.
"Okay! Then please invite Master Su here."
Bai Zhenhua, who received the order, headed towards Su An's table.
Su An, who doesn't drink alcohol and doesn't brag about business with everyone at the same table, is lying on the food.
As he was eating, he suddenly remembered that the birthday gift he prepared for Old Mrs. Bai was still lying in his pocket!
Just as he was thinking about getting up and giving the birthday gift to Mrs. Bai, he suddenly heard someone calling him. He turned around and saw Bai Zhenhua: "Hey, Mr. Bai, are you here to toast?"
"Master Su, this is true. My mother wants to invite you to come and have a table with us."
"This is not good!"
Su An hesitated. After all, Old Mrs. Bai's table was all family members, and when he, an outsider, sat him, he was a little out of place!
Mr. Bai, don’t you want to introduce your daughter to me again, right?
Su An looked at Bai Zhenhua suspiciously.
"Master Su, my mother likes the cheongsam you made very much. I really can't do anything about it, so you can come with me."
Although he didn't speak loudly, everyone at this table could hear it clearly.
They all watched this scene in disbelief and couldn't understand it.
Who is this young man? Why did Mr. Bai come here to invite him in person and invite him to the table of his family in the Bai family? He is so humble?"
Su An thought for a while: "Okay, I should go to celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Bai, and give her the birthday gift."
"Master Su, please..." Bai Zhenhua stretched out his hand with a smile.
The moment when Xu Shoucheng and his son saw Bai Zhenhua respectfully invite Su An, their originally bad looks even worse.
