The woman in the photo has a smile as bright as a flower, standing under a cherry blossom tree in full bloom, with Mount Fuji in the distant background.
Si Gengyao's memory was not confused, nor was it blurred by the romantic affairs of the past few decades. He quickly thought of that scene.
Thirty-five years ago in the summer, he went to Tokyo on a business trip and met the girl in the photo. She was studying abroad at the University of Tokyo at the time.
He was not married at that time, he was handsome, elegant and suave, while the girl was in her prime, cheerful and enthusiastic.
After meeting several times, they quickly fell in love and visited major scenic spots in Japan hand in hand.
The season of cherry blossoms is particularly beautiful, and their love is blooming romantically like the cherry blossoms.
Later, he returned to China to get engaged and get married.
In an era of backward communication, separation across countries is almost equivalent to farewell forever.
After many years, the yellowed photos came back to him again.
There was only one photo, no negative, and it was left at her place when we parted. Did she send it in person?
Only a handful of people know his private mobile phone number, and the number from which he sent the message is obviously a virtual network number.
Si Gengyao couldn't figure out who it was that got the photo and his number at the same time and had the courage to do so.
"Husband?" Yao Peiyu noticed her husband's subtle expression and shouted in a low voice.
After all, Si Gengyao was a veteran who had been in the world for many years, so he would not be disturbed by these things. He put down his mobile phone calmly and said, "There is a small matter in the company. Let's deal with it when we get home."
More than half an hour later, Liang Chaoying hurried over and greeted the elders present generously and appropriately.
Yao Peiyu was satisfied with this, and took her hand and said, "Every time grandpa's memory is confused, the first thing he thinks of is always you. It shows that he really likes you, kid. Go ahead and chat with grandpa for a while."
Si Qionghua was very unconvinced. Why could his grandfather not remember the children at home, but he remembered Liang Chaoying?
Can she do magic?
Reluctantly putting the fruit plate in Liang Chaoying's hand, Si Qionghua smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Liang. My grandfather has a bit of a weird temper. If he loses his temper later, remember to call us."
Liang Chaoying said with a smile, "Grandpa Si has a pretty good temperament and doesn't lose his temper easily."
Si Qionghua was very unhappy and deliberately asked, "Doctor Liang, do you have any tricks? Can you teach me some tricks? My grandpa is so powerful, and he can be coaxed into submission by you. It's so amazing!"
Liang Chaoying could hear her sarcasm and didn't care. Instead, she said seriously, "Stop making fun of me. If I really have that ability, I have to use it on your brother."
Si Qionghua said with a smile, "You haven't taken care of my brother yet? Just taking care of my grandfather and my uncle and aunt is not enough. My brother has a lot of personality. Didn't you see that he didn't even come to the reunion dinner today?"
"
Liang Chaoying didn't want to fall out with Si Qionghua. This girl was very favored by Si Baonian. If he said bad things about her and set her up, it wouldn't be worth the loss. "I don't want to mess with anyone. I just want to do the best for the elderly and try my best to make them happy. That's all."
That’s all.”
Looking at Liang Chaoying's back, Si Qionghua curled her lips, she didn't believe it!
Turning around, she sent a message to Si Baonian: [Brother, grandpa suffered temporary amnesia again today, and then your Dr. Liang came again. It’s so strange, why did grandpa only remember Liang Chaoying when he lost his memory, and he couldn’t even recognize us grandchildren?
?Are you in a relationship? Does grandpa really think that she is his granddaughter-in-law? Grandpa is so dependent on her!]
After waiting for a while, no one responded to the message.
Yao Peiyu smiled and said, "Qionghua, you are going to graduate next year, right?"
Si Qionghua put on a cute and pitiful smile, "Yes, auntie, next June."
"Now that she is a grown-up girl, she can no longer be as temperamental as she was when she was a child." Yao Peiyu still smiled slightly.
But her smile put a lot of pressure on Si Qionghua.
Ye Bei protected her daughter, crossed her arms and said, "Sister-in-law, I will teach my daughter, I won't bother you."
Yao Peiyu lost her beloved daughter, which was a wound deep in her heart that could not be healed. Her feelings for Si Qionghua were somewhat complicated, with both love and jealousy. Everything Qionghua enjoys now, Xiaoya should also have!
Both Si Ming and Si Nan looked ugly. Anyway, Grandpa couldn't think of them, so he didn't stay much longer.
Walking out of the villa, Si Nan couldn't hold back his anger, "Brother, are we just going to watch the uncle's family ride on our heads? Si Bainian is damn crippled, and the uncle wants him to return to the group to be the president, and a cripple comes out
Aren't you afraid that outsiders will laugh at him if he is embarrassed?"
He kicked the pebbles at his feet angrily.
Si Ming lit a cigarette and sneered, "Big Boken, Si Bo Nian may not be willing. He wants face so much that he will try his best to conceal his true condition and not allow anyone to know that he is a cripple."
Si Nan said cheerfully, "Do you think this is retribution? The couple did many evil things. Their daughter died and their son became disabled."
Si Ming looked at his brother's smile, curled up his lips and said, "Who knows? Maybe."
in.
Liang Chaoying chatted with Si Guanlin for a while and then coaxed him to sleep.
When Si Guanlin fell into a light sleep, she began to hypnotize her, repeating her name over and over again, hinting to him: Grandpa, I am Chaoying, I am Si Baonian's wife, we are a loving couple, you must bless us
We will grow old together, and we will have children for the Si family... Si Baonian loves me very much, loves me very much, and the only woman Baonian loves is me...

After Duoduo drank the medicine, Xiaolong took her to play puzzles.
In the study, Teng Mengmei took the detailed medical records and analyzed Duoduo's condition with Lu Enxi and Si Boyian.
"Xiao Lu, don't be too sad. Chinese medicine can't cure diseases overnight. It will take some time to see the effect."
Lu Enxi understood, she understood the laws of traditional Chinese medicine, "Thank you, Mr. Teng, it's just that you have worked so hard every day."
Teng Mengmei smiled softly along her beard, "It's fate! If you didn't know Chinese, the grudge between my eldest brother and I would not be resolved. Now I am treating Duoduo because of fate. Everything is destined.
"
Lu Enxi didn't really believe in fate, but he seemed to have an unclear fate, "Teng Lao, you saved so many people by hanging a pot to help the world. This is God's reward for you."
Teng Mengmei smiled and said, "You and Mr. Si are also kind people, and kindness can never go wrong."
Lu Enxi just smiled and didn't answer.
Not long after, Teng Mengmei left.
There were only her and Si Boyian in the study.
The cool air outside the floor-to-ceiling window fills the green plants. Large deciduous plants have fallen off, exposing dry branches. The radial light from the floor lamp blooms from bottom to top, turning the branches into outstretched arms.
It's quiet outside, and it's quiet inside.
It was so quiet that even breathing was awkward.
Lu Enxi didn't want to stay with him and was about to leave when she heard Si Bo Nian say, "Your suggestion is very useful. I'm checking the person behind it."
