As soon as Yan Yan stepped out of the door, Tan Xiangzi pushed the door vigorously.
The thin body seemed to have been drained of all its strength in an instant, leaning against the door and slowly slid down, falling to the ground. He hugged his head with both hands, his shoulders began to tremble, and his dry body shrank into a ball.
Buried in the palm of his hand, his face whimpered low, depressing sob...
Yan Yan, who had already walked to the gate of the thatched cottage, stopped, turned around and looked at the private school that was close to the door, sighed softly, and walked out of the thatched cottage.
When I came to the street outside, the warm sunshine shone on the bustling cars, horses and pedestrians.
On the surface, there is no abnormality in this world that has been changed in time and space rules.
However, Yan Yan already knew the truth of this world. In her eyes, Hundu Town was full of strangeness and illusion, and she could never return to her previous appearance.
Just as he was about to walk back, Yan Yan suddenly stopped and turned around and looked at the Chen family's dim sum shop.
The wife of the Chen family was squatting in front of one of the large earth stoves and adding firewood to the furnace.
When Yan Yan saw it, the Chen family's wife had just finished her busy standing up and was about to lift the cage when she looked up accidentally and saw Yan Yan standing at the door of the private school and looking at this side.
The Chen family's wife was slightly stunned, then smiled at Yan Yan and waved to her enthusiastically.
Looking at the gentle and virtuous smile of the Chen family's wife, Yan Yan's mind once again appeared in her heart that kind and kind mother-in-law, who had last night's steps, unconsciously turned her direction and walked towards the Chen family's snack shop.
When she came close to her, the Chen family's wife pointed to the private school across the street, pointed to the backyard, waved her hand gently, and said "Ah, Ah" monosyllable from her mouth.
Yan Yan understood it. What she meant was that Chen Zhen didn’t go to school today and was at home.
When the Chen family saw her coming out of the private school, they probably thought she was coming to find Chen Zhen.
He smiled at Yan Yan again and gestured to her for a while with sign language. The Chen family's wife turned around and quickly lifted the lid of a cage on a large earth stove, ready to get a snack.
Before taking the snack, the Chen family's wife used to wipe her hands on the cleaned flower apron.
But just after wiping it, I frowned and looked down at my hand.
Seeing that her expression was different, Yan Yan asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
The Chen family lady checked her fingers and seemed to be scratched by something. She frowned and showed doubts on her fair face. Then she lowered her head and touched her apron with her hands.
Yan Yan was waiting patiently beside him.
She saw the Chen family's wife fumble on the surface of the apron for a while, as if she had touched a hard little lump, and then she put her hand into the big pocket in front of the apron.
Afterwards, Yan Yan saw the Chen family's wife take out a small lump with a white and metallic luster from her pocket...
When Yan Yan saw clearly what the Chen family lady took out from her pocket, she stayed there.
Her pupils suddenly shrank, and she stared at the things in the hands of the Chen family’s wife.
It was an ordinary silver with a horn, about two taels, and it was broken silver cut from the entire piece of official silver.
Such broken silver is convenient for circulation in the market in Hundu Town, and it can be seen almost everywhere in the hands of ordinary small vendors.
But Yan Yan was deeply impressed by this horn of silver.
Because that's hers.
Or, it was when she bought buns with the Chen family's mother-in-law last night, and the corner of silver that popped into her mother-in-law's pocket.
Yan Yan stared blankly at the money in the hands of the Chen family's wife, but her complicated gaze did not attract the attention of the Chen family's wife.
Because the Chen family's wife was also confused by this corner of silver at this moment.
She held the silver and frowned, obviously she couldn't remember where the silver came from.
Yan Yan had recovered from his surprise at this moment.
Go up and gesture with your hands: "Don't you remember who gave this money?"
The wife of the Chen family nodded immediately and gestured with her hands: "No one uses such a large amount of money to buy steamed buns. If she receives them, she will be very impressed, but she has no impression of this at all."
Yan Yan smiled and gestured and said, "Can you collect it when your high hall was guarding the stall for you this morning?"
The Chen family's wife looked a little confused when she saw Yan Yan's gesture. Then she shook her head, smiled and waved her hands repeatedly, and quickly gestured: "How could someone else guard the storefront for me? Since Chen Zhen's father passed away, I was the only one.
The mother and mother stayed in this shop for a lifetime.”
Looking quietly at the sign language of the Chen family’s wife smiling and gestures, Yan Yan’s expression gradually restrained.
No one else!
So the mother-in-law she met last night...
Then, in Yan Yan's eyes, the kind old lady who brought her buns last night and the gentle young woman in front of her gradually overlapped the figures of the two...
At this moment, she understood everything.
But at this moment when he saw through the truth, Yan Yan was not excited to solve the mystery.
She remembered the only wind lamp in the lonely city last night.
I remembered the old woman who was lonely and hard at the store and was already in her twilight years.
Thinking of those rough hands that were trembling and unable to move the big steamer...
Yan Yan felt that her eyes suddenly became a little hot.
Times have changed, when the former Hundun Town has become a deserted city like a tomb, and when everything here is almost forgotten by the world...
The elderly mother is still with her son, even though her child is already a lonely soul.
This is the most selfless, warmest and greatest love in the world!
Yan Yan suddenly turned around, trying to cover up his embarrassment, but unexpectedly saw that he had walked out of the gate of the hut, and was quietly looking at Tan Xiangzi here.
Tan Xiangzi seemed to have noticed Yan Yan's emotions, and his red eyes were also filled with sadness.
Yan Yan looked at Tan Xiangzi quietly and sent a silent voice: "How long can the Chen family lady wait?"
Tan Xiangzi's tight lips began to tremble slightly when asked.
He knew what she was asking meant.
Yan Yan's clear eyes were staring at Tan Xiangzi at this moment, and then asked, "How long can Yumei wait?"
Tan Xiangzi's tight lips opened, and his hands hanging on both sides gradually clenched into fists.
In the eyes of Yan Yan looking across the street, mist gradually emerged...
Yan Yan didn't plan to let him go, and continued to send a message to ask: "Master... how long can you wait?"
After the last question, Tan Xiangzi's whole body trembled violently, and in his resolute and hard eyes, two lines of turbid tears could not be suppressed.
Yan Yan's eyes were already wet and hot.
She was about to leave, but her wrist was gently held by a warm and soft hand.
Yan Yan quickly used his spiritual power to force the tears in his eyes. He turned around and saw the gentle and smiling wife of the Chen family stuffing a warm bag of oil paper into his hand.
She quickly spoke in sign language: "This is a water chestnut candy bag. I really liked the ones you gave last time. He came back and said you liked it too, so I bought water chestnuts again. This time I made some more, except for giving it to
You and Zhen'er, you have to give me some gifts..."
