Chapter 416 I Can't Go Back
"What do you mean?" Chen Aiguo glanced at Guan Qiuju angrily, "It means that your mother's mouth should be more virtuous, and don't scold others at every turn, or you will go back to Guan's house."

After the words fell, Chen Aiguo got up and left the house.

Guan Qiuju's wailing voice came from behind him, but he ignored it, and the pace of leaving became a little faster.At the door, he met Chen Jinzhou who was coming back from the outside. Chen Aiguo called Chen Jinzhou and asked him to drive out the door for himself.

"Grandpa, where are we going?"

Chen Jinzhou asked.

Chen Aiguo frowned and looked at the flying scenery outside, his usual mellow voice was a little tired.

"Go to Indus Street and have a look."

Chen Jinzhou didn't know why his grandfather was going to Wutong Street, but it didn't prevent him from driving there.

Su Yun and the others bought a lot of things on the street, and then went out to eat a bowl of steamed mutton before returning home.Su Yun, who was not used to eating mutton, felt that her whole body was very hot after eating mutton.

She drank a lot of water along the way, and she drank up the full pot of water in Xiao Lin's military water bottle, and she felt better.

This thing really needs to be eaten in winter.

As soon as the car entered Wutong Street, Su Yun and the others saw a car parked outside their house. That car looked familiar. Is it Chen Jinzhou's car?Su Yun looked at Xiao Lin who was at the side, Xiao Lin also saw Chen Aiguo standing beside the car with sharp eyes.

He scowled.

I didn't expect Chen Aiguo to come so soon.

"Brother Rin?"

Su Yun called softly, Xiao Lin came back to his senses, and put on a gentle smile on his face, "I'm sorry, my wife."

Su Yun knew what he was referring to.

After Guan Qiuju and the others left in the morning, Su Yun had been looking for an opportunity to tell Mrs. Xiao about Chen Aiguo, but she never found the opportunity.Now that someone came to her door, she couldn't do it anymore.

"Grandma!" Su Yun took a deep breath, turned her head and said to the old lady Xiao who was sitting in the back row, "Grandma, if grandpa is not dead but is still alive in this world and has another family, will you be sad?"

The old lady Xiao, who had kept her eyes closed all the time, slowly opened them, with a kind and gentle smile on her face, "Is that the one in the morning? His new family."

"Grandma?" Su Yun was very surprised.

Even Xiao Lin was taken aback.

The old lady Xiao said very calmly, "There is a daughter next to that old woman, who looks a bit like An Zi and his grandfather when he was young." She didn't care at first, and she didn't take it to heart.

But now that Su Yun said this, she guessed it.

I have to say that Mrs. Xiao is still very wise.Compared with that Guan Qiuju, I don't know how many times wiser he is.

She is so sensible, Su Yun is not so worried.

"Grandma, no matter what choice you make, Brother Rin and I will stand by your side unswervingly." In fact, Su Yun thinks that with Mrs. Xiao's personality, what kind of choice will she make? The choice can be roughly guessed.

But she still wanted to state her position.

The old lady smiled, took her hand, patted it and said hello twice.

The car stopped at the door.

Chen Aiguo and Chen Jinzhou raised their heads together and looked towards them.

Xiao Lin got out of the car first, opened the door to let Su Yun get out of the car, and then went to open the door of the back seat, and the old lady Xiao slowly got down from the back seat.The moment she raised her head, Chen Aiguo's eyes filled with mist, and he staggered two steps forward.

"Xiao Yuan."

He wanted to hold Mrs. Xiao's hand but dared not.With trembling lips, she called Mrs. Xiao by her nickname, which only people who are very close to her would call her.

Opening his mouth and calling his name, Chen Aiguo didn't know what to say.He has so much to say, after all, the two have not seen each other for decades.

But now that he has a new family, all the words he wants to say have become pale and weak.

In the end, he could only murmur Mrs. Xiao's nickname again, "How have you been all these years?"

This question is really inappropriate.

In such difficult decades, Mrs. Xiao raised a child and grew up alone. If you think about it for a while, you know that life must be very difficult.

Chen Aiguo also knew that Mrs. Xiao was struggling, but he didn't know what to ask.He wanted her to scold him, make her hate him and blame him for blaming him, so that the guilt in his heart would be a little better.

However, he couldn't see what Chen Aiguo wanted.

The two who have only met after more than 50 years, even if Mrs. Xiao still keeps the marriage certificate of their marriage, they are not husband and wife anymore, right?

Old Madam Xiao smiled faintly, "It's pretty good."

Her attitude of letting go made Chen Aiguo feel uncomfortable like a thousand arrows piercing his heart.He opened his mouth to explain, he wanted to explain that he didn't go back on purpose back then, he was just seriously injured and lost his memory, that's why he forgot that his pregnant wife was waiting for him at home.

He really didn't mean not to go back.

"Xiao Yuan!"

Chen Aiguo's voice was choked up, and two lines of tears fell down. Thousands of words could only be gathered into three simple words.

"sorry."

"It's okay." Mrs. Xiao raised her head and looked at this man who had been away for more than 50 years and was still a young man when he left.Her voice was as gentle as ever.

Just listening to her gentle voice, "It's all over."

After so many years, she has long been used to the days when he is not around.When he joined the revolutionary team, she chose to support him. If so, she would naturally choose to accept the consequences.

Compared with him dying on the battlefield, this is really good now.

"Xiao Yuan..."

Chen Aiguo approached, put his hands on Mrs. Xiao's shoulders, lowered her head and wept uncontrollably.

If he hadn't recovered his memory 20 years ago, would things have ended differently?His little Yuan waited for him from a young girl to a white head, but he simply forgot everything...

Chen Aiguo broke down in tears.

The old lady Xiao just stood there, neither comforting nor avoiding Chen Aiguo, whose name had been changed.

His eyes were lowered like that, with a faint smile on his face all the time, without saying a word, and his mood did not fluctuate.

Su Yun watched from the side very sadly.She is also a woman, she can feel the emotions that grandma is trying to suppress, no less than Chen Aiguo who is crying bitterly.

But the other party has another family now, no matter how many feelings the old lady has in her heart, she can only abide by the principle, stand within the invisible red line, and refrain from doing anything that may overstep her identity.

He didn't even have the right to cry in front of Chen Aiguo.

How can this not make people feel sad?

Chen Aiguo supported the old lady Xiao's shoulder and wept bitterly, while Su Yun also quietly wiped away tears.Xiao Lin folded the handkerchief and carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Daughter-in-law, don't cry, I feel bad."

Chen Jinzhou looked at them, and it was never clearer than now that there was an invisible wall between them, and he couldn't get in no matter how hard he tried.

Maybe this is also good, he should have cut off that unrealistic long-cherished dream long ago.Especially now that she is still the wife of his cousin who is related to him by blood, he should not have any false thoughts.

sister in law……

Oh, what an ironic title.

Chen Jinzhou lowered his head, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.
