Domineering and cold, I will not run away

Chapter 519

"Go home... Okay, let's go home." Aunt Tao turned around and hugged Xia Moxi. For many years, she hadn't heard a girl as old as her daughter say "go home" to her. Aunt Tao cried again, no Dare to cry with joy this time.

This is Xia Moxi's first visit to Aunt Tao and Uncle Tao's house after getting to know them.Xia Moxi wanted to buy some gifts to bring with her, but Aunt Tao and his wife refused to let her, Xia Moxi acted like a baby and insisted, and bought a set of high-end clothes for each of the two elders.

Back home, Aunt Tao shook off her arms and drove Xia Moxi to watch TV with Uncle Tao, and prepared a sumptuous meal by herself.

"Momo, Lao Tao, wash your hands, it's time to eat!" Aunt Tao turned off the stove and after preparing the last dish, she shouted to the old and the young in the living room who were watching TV.

"Hey, here we come!" After washing her hands, Xia Moxi hurried to the kitchen to help Aunt Tao serve the dishes. "Auntie, let me serve you the food!"

"Oh, Momo, put it down quickly. You are pregnant with a child and you can't touch these heavy things. What if it burns? Go and sit down." Aunt Tao saw Xia Moxi's hand Looking at the hot soup she had just made, she was quite frightened, and after some reminders, she yelled at Uncle Tao, "Old Tao, come and help me serve the dishes, and let Momo sit down."

Xia Moxi quit, and the old man who had known her for less than a week treated her so well, she really felt a little sorry, so she said to Aunt Tao with affection and reason: "Aunt Tao, you make me feel like this!" If I sit at home and do nothing, I will be idle. Didn’t the doctor say that being more active is good for the child? If I eat and sleep and eat after sleep, it will be bad for the child.”

When it came to children, Aunt Tao compromised everything, "Okay then, Momo, you go and help Auntie put the dishes and chopsticks in order, that's okay, right?" Aunt Tao won't allow any heavy work.

Xia Moxi nodded, beaming with joy, "Yes, yes."

"You child, you just can't stay idle. Why do you like to move so much?" Uncle Tao came in and out, more or less overheard the conversation between Xia Moxi and Aunt Tao.He naturally chose to stand on the same front as Aunt Tao. After being an old couple for so many years, Uncle Tao and Aunt Tao even talked with each other in a special way.

"Uh..." Xia Moxi was at a loss for words. This was the first time someone said that she was very active. In the past, she had established a relatively quiet, calm, intellectual and elegant image in front of everyone.This is really a relatively new experience, "Uncle Tao, what you said to Aunt Tao is exactly the same, so amazing."

"Hehe, you child!"

Uncle Tao and Aunt Tao spoke in unison. The room was quiet for two seconds, and then three bursts of loud laughter broke out, "Haha, Aunt Tao, I'm right, your two elders really have a good understanding."

"Yeah, yeah, okay, don't stick around here anymore. Sit down and eat." Aunt Tao brought out the rice and sat down at the dining table first, and then pulled Xia Moxi to sit next to her, " Momo, don't be in a hurry to eat, drink the soup that Auntie made first!"

Xia Moxi quietly watched Aunt Tao serve her soup, and the steaming aroma immediately spread to all parts of the room.The house of Tao and his wife is not big, with two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom.But it is precisely because of this that people in the room can feel the presence of others for the first time, and Xia Moxi defines this sense of presence as happiness.

"Aunt Tao, Uncle Tao, thank you." Xia Moxi's body and mind were completely softened by these two old people, so the words she said also softened into people's hearts.The most sincere thank you, this is what Xia Moxi has always wanted to do.

"Silly boy, thank you..." Aunt Tao said so, but her eyes were full of tears, "Hey? Strange, I don't want to cry? Look, this is what people like when they are old. I'm bored, shed tears at every turn... Momo, leave me alone, I'll wash my face, you guys eat first, don't let the food get cold!"

After Aunt Tao finished speaking, before Xia Moxi could respond, she got up and went to the bathroom and closed the door behind her backhand.Xia Moxi was worried that something might happen to her, so she wanted to follow her, but was stopped by Uncle Tao, Xia Moxi turned her head and asked puzzledly, "Uncle Tao, Auntie cried a lot, did I say something wrong? Is Aunt Tao sad? It's all my fault, let me go and have a look."

"Momo, sit and wait, it's not your fault. Your Auntie Tao...has thought of some past events, so...she really doesn't care about your business. Momo, you should eat first, the baby will not be hungry if you are hungry. Alright." Uncle Tao spoke hesitantly, as if he was covering up something.

Xia Moxi couldn't help it anymore, she always felt uneasy if she didn't ask clearly, this family treated her so well, she really wanted to do something to repay them. "Uncle Tao, just tell me what's going on? If you don't tell me, I'm really sorry."

"This... well, Momo, you and our old couple are so predestined, you must be a predestined person, let me tell you!" Uncle Tao stared at Xia Moxi, and it took him a long time to make up his mind, "Momo, you are so smart , must have discovered, our family is missing some people."

"People? Is it your child? By the way, I haven't seen your child yet? Did he go to work in other places?" Xia Moxi thought that there is a very trendy appellation now - empty nest old man, she thought The same goes for Uncle Tao and Aunt Tao.

"No, actually, Aunt Tao and I once had a child, a girl." Uncle Tao said.

"Then where is she now? I haven't seen her yet!" Xia Moxi thought, surely Uncle Tao's child is not at home, right?

"She... passed away for many years..." Uncle Tao choked up a little, his beloved daughter died young, and this tough guy couldn't bear such a blow.

"I'm sorry Uncle Tao, I... reminded you of painful memories." Xia Moxi held Uncle Tao's hand and apologized apologetically.

"It's okay." Uncle Tao wiped the tears from his eyes, "She is a very good child just like you. He was found to have leukemia when he got it, and he left after half a year." More than ten years have passed, and Uncle Tao is still in pain when he thinks of his daughter's face.

"Uncle... I'm sorry..." Facing the estrangement between life and death, Xia Moxi felt for the first time that her tongue was so useless that she couldn't say a word of comfort, she could only keep saying sorry. As for what she was sorry for, she herself didn't know have no idea.
