"I know about you and her, I've known about it for a long time."
Although he had guessed that this might be the result, Malashenko was still surprised when he heard Natalia's answer.
"Why? Uh... no, I mean, if you knew, why did you wait until now to say it? Doesn't... doesn't this make you very concerned?"
Malashenko felt that this matter was undoubtedly very important to Natalia, and it was outrageous that he had been holding back until now.
What was going on in her mind? Why did she choose to do this?
Malashenko has too many questions waiting for Natalia to answer them one by one.
But...Natalia didn't seem to intend to answer Malashenko directly, but changed the subject and directed the topic elsewhere.
"Do you still remember what your biological parents look like? My dear."
Malashenko was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Natalia would suddenly ask such a question.
He wanted to say that this was not the crux of the problem, but after thinking about it, Malashenko felt that it might not be a good idea to reject Natalia now and not give an answer, so he immediately gave the answer after thinking about it for a while.
"I don't remember. There is a blank in my memory. They left this world before I could remember. From the time I can remember, I have only seen what my biological parents look like in photos."
Malashenko told the truth and did not lie to Natalia.
In this era of frequent disasters, underdeveloped medical conditions, and no medical insurance, it is extremely easy for a serious disease or epidemic to take away people's lives. The probability of death due to the disease is far higher than the number of people.
Far higher than the hereafter.
When Malashenko was still young, his parents died of illness. That happened before Malashenko could remember. He grew up as an orphan eating the villagers' food as a child.
The most profound memory.
Therefore, even though Malashenko, as a time traveler, inherited this body and all the memories of the past, Malashenko or Lin Jie cannot recall things that do not exist in the memory fragments. This is
Just like the prerequisite for finding something is that it exists in this world, where can you find something that doesn't exist at all?
Hearing the expected answer from her lover beside her, the calm and sweet Natalya bathed in the evening breeze, blowing her short hair that reached her neck, and soon spoke to Malashenko again.
"But I remember, dear. Because I am a little older than you, I still remember things about my parents and the family environment I grew up in when I was a child. I even remember them being taken away and forcibly taking me and my parents away.
I remember the scene where I cried a lot at the beginning of the movie very clearly and it is still fresh in my memory."
Natalya and Malashenko are actually a brother-sister couple, and Malashenko is 3 years older. This is something that many people don’t know.
It's just because Malashenko was different from ordinary people since he was a child. He was very fast and became a "giant" among children wherever he went. So even the two "orphans" Malashenko and Natalia were in
When we are together, the obvious height difference will always make adults or children mistakenly think that boys are at least the same age as girls, and most likely they are older than girls.
Considering that she is 3 years older than Malashenko, it is normal for Natalia to be able to remember some things from her childhood. This is not surprising.
However, Malashenko couldn't figure out what this had to do with the issue being discussed now, and he still looked at his wife with a puzzled expression.
"Listen to me telling you a story, my dear, this is one of the few stories I can remember from when I was a child and I was still with my parents."
Natalia's words were soft and gentle, and Malashenko just nodded subconsciously when he heard the words, indicating that he was all ears.
"Ever since I could remember when I was very young, I have seen my father often being very affectionate with other women. He was not like that only when he was with my mother."
"Of course my father loves me very much. He regards me as the apple of his eye. I am his only daughter and the youngest child in the family. I have five brothers, but I can't remember the names of my brothers now.
.”
"I was still young and ignorant at that time. I didn't know why my father would often be so affectionate with other women, just like when he was with my mother."
"So I asked my mother, because I was closer to her. At that time, I firmly believed that my mother would tell me the truth. Guess what she told me?"
Even in the memories he inherited, Malashenko never found any fragments of Natalia telling her childhood experiences.
It was indeed the first time for Malashenko to hear such a story. He thought for a moment and answered without much hesitation.
"Well... adults usually don't tell the truth to children of this age. I guess they used some excuse to get you through?"
Natalia shook her head slowly with a gentle smile. The answer was obviously not what Malashenko imagined.
"My father is a very powerful nobleman. He not only inherited the family business and fiefdom passed down from his ancestors, but also expanded the family business on this basis and made the operation larger. By the time I was born, my father was already in charge.
The entire family business is in its 20th year and has expanded nearly four times compared to when he first took over. This is what my mother first told me."
"Excellent men always have many admirers around them. The better a man is, the more powerful he is, and the more he relies on his own ability to reach a higher position, the more he can show his charm, just like a bird
Her feathers are even more colorful."
"My mother was the one who was drawn to my father. She never lied to me and told me everything from the beginning. She taught me to be normal about my brother and other mothers.
, treat all family members equally. Dad has always attached great importance to family harmony, and he is also used to getting everyone together during meals, holding his most beloved little princess, who is me, in his arms."
"Memories like that are always very happy, although they are only short-lived and fleeting. My life has gone through great changes since then, but I have never forgotten it all, and of course I will never forget it.
The story between father and mother."
Having finished speaking, Natalia turned around formally and faced her lover. Her final words left Comrade Ma speechless.
"This is the place we live in in our time. Even if political power changes and times change, there are always some things that have not changed, like certain customs and customs."
"From the time your name continued to appear on the radio and newspapers, spread widely in people's mouths, and became a household hero in the streets and even the entire motherland. I knew that one day, a love like that between my father and mother would definitely
It will happen between us, and I am mentally prepared for it."
