Reborn sparrow becomes phoenix

Chapter 21 The Sparrow Among the Swans
Xingye told them about what happened to her brother and father. Even the picky father-in-law and mother-in-law would not think that a man who is willing to sacrifice his life for his daughter is not a good husband.

What happened to Hui Ye was more regretful, and Xing Ye finally let go of his hanging heart.

She used to have a firm belief in her heart that if they had any bad comments on Kaguya, she would not hesitate to choose to tell the news of her mother's death and then leave. After all, Kaguya was the one who had lived with her for more than ten years. relatives.

It was already past noon, and Aunt Mei, the nanny, made some simple noodle soup dishes, but no one had an appetite for them.

The old lady was under too much mental stress and the man was getting old again. After a long time, he was exhausted and was forcibly sent to the bedroom by everyone to rest.

Yu Zhongliang and his wife inquired in detail about their mother and daughter's life over the years, and introduced to her the size of Yu's family.

Yu Zhongliang asked Aunt Mei to tidy up a guest room for Xingye and let her go to settle it. Xingye also wanted to avoid it and leave some space and time to digest these things.

Only Yu Zhongliang and Yu Jiakai were left in the living room.

"Hey" it was Yu Zhongliang who broke the silence first, "My sister is worried about Xingye, so she wants to entrust her to us. This child is really pitiful."

"When I just held her hand, I realized that the child had a layer of calluses on his hand. It looked like he was working a lot. He had to take care of his sick mother, cook, wash clothes, and even go to school. How can life be as easy as she said?" Aunt Liang Huiru said.

"Huiru, mom and dad are getting old, you should take care of Xingye more, don't you keep complaining about not having a daughter, just think we have an extra beautiful daughter, how about it." Yu Zhongliang said to his wife.

Liang Huiru rolled his eyes at him: "You are so narrow-minded, you are afraid that I won't wait to see her, even if I look at Xiaoyue's face, I will treat her as my own daughter, you don't need to say it."

Yu Zhongliang hurriedly apologized, he could tell who the leader of the family was at a glance.

"Besides, let you two brats get mad at me again. Now that I have a younger sister, I don't even bother to talk to you. What's your expression?" She wanted to tease her son, but Yu Jiakai frowned. Ignored her at all.

"Yesterday Xingye and my classmate Tianyang came on the same train. Tianyang, you know, is a very enthusiastic person. He told us that Xingye didn't prepare anything to eat on the train, and he was reluctant to buy something on the train for dinner. She was going to come to Tianyun hungry." Jia Kai couldn't help thinking of the first meeting last night, "No wonder I saw her carrying a bag and walking along the road under the street lights last night, she must be looking for the best restaurant. Find a cheap hotel, or find a place where you can sleep for free."

Yu Zhongliang and his wife were heartbroken for a while. Their frugality was probably due to their lack of money. Immediately, the image of Starry Night overlapped with the little girl who sold matches. The little girl in thin clothes huddled in the corner of the street, cold and hungry, longing for warmth and happiness. food.

"You saw the starry night, and you let her walk on the street alone at night, how dangerous, if something happens, how can you treat your aunt." The mother immediately educated her son.

"Please, yesterday I didn't know if she would be my cousin." Yu Jiakai complained for himself.

"Even if it's not your cousin, you shouldn't stand by and watch other girls have difficulties. It can only be said that you lack compassion."

Yu Jiakai felt that what his mother said was unreasonable, but he didn't feel that he did something wrong last night, but why did he regret that he didn't do anything for her last night after knowing that she was a cousin today? Could it be because of her? From a stranger who has nothing to do with him to a brother and sister who are connected by blood.

"Okay," Yu Zhongliang looked at the habitual bickering between the mother and son, and didn't know where it would go if he didn't stop it: "Jiakai, you are similar in age, it should be easier to get close, you have to take care of Xingye, she Her mood must be even more sad than ours, so take her out to relax."

At the end, he added, "You can't want to take care of Jia Luo like that. If you rush to Xingye like that, let's see how I deal with you."

Hearing his father mention his younger brother Jia Luo, Yu Jiakai was proud for a while.That boy relied on being the youngest child when he was a child, and his grandma and grandpa loved him the most. He was naughty, and even his father couldn't control him. Later, he was taken good care of by his elder brother a few times. Of course, the care must be in quotation marks Yes, until now the whole family does not listen to anyone, only my elder brother follows the lead.

"Mom, you have to pay attention. I think this younger sister Xingye is very strong, smart and sensitive. Don't stimulate her too much." Yu Jiakai told his mother. In his eyes, his mother sometimes looks like a The child is not very reliable, for example, she is obsessed with bickering with herself.

"I still use you as a reminder. Speaking of which, her mother also has the same personality, alas." Liang Huiru gave her son a blank look, disapproving of his words.

"I'd better try to persuade my parents again, it's a big blow to them today." Yu Zhongliang was worried that his parents' health would not be able to bear it.

Xingye looked at her new room. It was the guest room that was originally prepared. There was only one bed and two bedside tables. A black walnut wall cabinet was embedded in the wall. On the bed were the sheets and pillows that Aunt Mei had just changed. It was very clean and simple.

If anything, there is a photo of my grandmother in costume hanging on the wall.Xingye doesn't know much about Peking opera, so naturally he doesn't know which character's costume is in that photo, but it is very beautiful.Xingye couldn't help but stand under the photo and take a closer look. It should be when grandma was in her thirties. She had beautiful makeup, a slim figure, and flowing eyes. It was so beautiful that even women would be moved when they saw it.

It's so beautiful, Xingye couldn't help admiring in his heart, if the person in the photo is replaced by himself, um, it's a woman's nature to love beauty, if you have a chance, you should dress up and take a picture like this, when you look back when you get old, this is what you love The capital for children and grandchildren to show off.

Xingye packed up his few luggage and lay down on the bed, naturally without any sleepiness, secretly thinking about how to live in the future.

She just found out that the living environment of her grandfather's house is really different from hers before. Grandpa holds the title of visiting professor of several universities. After her grandmother retired, she won the Lifetime Art Achievement Award. She is a real old artist. The uncle who was a teacher entered politics with his mentor shortly after his mother left home. He first worked as a secretary to the mayor, his mentor, and for more than ten years he worked as a secretary to a high-ranking official, the secretary general of the municipal party committee, and a leader at the county level. , the year before last was already the mayor of Tianyun City, and it is said that the next high-ranking city official will definitely fall on him.

The uncle, who has never met, was originally engaged in foreign affairs at the consulate, and resigned to do international trade. Later, he was abducted to the United States by his aunt, who was also my grandfather's sister.No way, my grandfather’s family moved to the United States before liberation, and my grandfather stayed in the country alone for my grandmother. My grandfather originally had a sister and a younger brother born to a concubine. He was only eight years old at the time. I didn’t expect the eight-year-old child to be bumpy all the way. Unaccustomed to the climate, they died of illness not long after they arrived in the United States.There is only one younger sister left behind, and this younger sister is also a new woman with a higher education. She provoked the burden of the family business. , She found her eldest brother who was full of children and grandchildren, accused him of being irresponsible, and strongly demanded to donate a son or grandson to the United States to inherit the family business, so the younger uncle was pushed out by the guilty grandfather and became an American with a green card. Citizen, in fact, he was also the most suitable candidate.

But the headache for my grandfather and my aunt who is far away in the United States is that the 40-year-old uncle has no intention of getting married yet, but his girlfriends have changed one after another. There is no way that he is still a golden bachelor and a diamond king. Faced with the situation of no heir, it is said that some aunt has shifted her eyes to her two grandsons, and she is doing everything possible to let them go to the United States to study!
Xingye felt like a little sparrow fell into a flock of swans, out of tune with everything around her.
