Chapter 272 I want to accompany you all the time
Chapter 272 I will always be with you
Ye Bo prepared lunch and called them to eat.The old man was very caring, and put a few petals on each plate.Although inedible, it is fragrant.
Bai Muhan pulled out a chair for her in a gentlemanly manner, and sat opposite him.
Tang Xiaochen stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the fish, when he saw Ye Bo from the corner of his eye.Seeing Ye Bo standing there alone, he couldn't bear it.
"Uncle Ye, come eat with us. You have cooked so many dishes that we can't finish them all." Tang Xiaochen smiled at Uncle Ye with a humble and polite tone.
Ye Bo shook his head benevolently, and refused: "You guys eat, I'll go to the kitchen to eat some later."
Although Ye Bo said so, she noticed that there was a trace of longing in Ye Bo's eyes, it should be that he really wanted to have dinner with them.
Ye Bo guarded this flower garden alone, apart from the Bai family father and son, there must have been no one to talk to.That's why I was so enthusiastic when I saw them coming.
Tang Xiaochen gave Bai Muhan a wink. She knew that Bai Muhan would not speak, and Ye Bo would never dare to sit down.
After receiving her hint, Bai Muhan turned his head to look at Ye Bo with a smile in his eyes, "Ye Bo, you are an elder, don't be so cautious, sit down and eat together."
"Hey!" Ye Bo smiled all over his face, sitting a little far away from Tang Xiaochen.
Perhaps because he is used to the distinction between master and servant, Ye Bo's behavior is very restrained.In order to alleviate Uncle Ye's embarrassment, Tang Xiaochen took the initiative to pick up vegetables for Uncle Ye.
Ye Bo took the bowl and thanked him, "That's enough, that's enough, eat more."
"Uncle Ye, I'm sorry to trouble you. At your age, you still have to take care of us instead." She comes from an ordinary family and has no innate sense of hierarchy, so she only treats Uncle Ye as an elder and treats him respectfully.
Uncle Ye was overwhelmed by the flattery, praised her for being a nice person, and asked her to eat more.
She observed carefully for a while, and found that there were tears in the corners of Ye Bo's eyes.It may be that I haven't sat down with my family for a meal for a long time, and I feel deeply.
Tang Xiaochen was curious, and asked casually, "Uncle Ye, what does your family do?"
As soon as these words came out, Bai Muhan hurriedly looked up at her.Bai Muhan's expression was not very good, maybe she said something that shouldn't be said.
Tang Xiaochen showed embarrassment, and was about to change the subject, but Ye Bo said, "It's okay, after so many years, I'm not sad anymore."
"Sad?" Tang Xiaochen frowned slightly, unable to understand Ye Bo's words.
Ye Bo put down the bowl and chopsticks, a trace of sadness appeared on his wrinkled face, "My wife died early, and I never remarried, so I have no children under my knees, only me, a widowed old man."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Ye, I don't know." Tang Xiaochen bit her lip in embarrassment, trying to comfort Uncle Ye, but didn't know what to say.
It was a happy meal, but because of her unintentional mistake, it made it somewhat depressed.Although Ye Bo repeatedly emphasized that it's okay, she felt very sorry in her heart.
After the meal, Tang Xiaochen took the opportunity to apologize to Uncle Ye in person, but Uncle Ye told her the story of his youth.
It turned out that Ye Bo's first love when he was 17 years old was his later wife.His wife is sick and her health is getting worse.Ye Boxing worked so hard to grow flowers and plants to make money, but he still couldn't make up the medical expenses.
By chance, Bo Ye met Bai Muhan's father.Bai Muhan's father paid for Ye Bo's surgery, but in the end he couldn't save his wife's life.Because of serious illness, Ye Bo's only child was stillborn.Later, Bo Ye stayed in this flower garden in order to repay his kindness.He has been here alone for more than 20 years, with flowers and plants every day.He couldn't let go of his wife and never remarried.
Ye Bo also said that the real loneliness is not that there is no one around you, but that there is no one in your heart.
Tang Xiaochen nodded after hearing this, and was about to get up to look for Bai Muhan, when Ye Bo said again: "Miss Tang, you are a blessed person, you must know how to cherish it. The young master has never brought anyone here before, you are the first one."
"I know, Uncle Ye." Tang Xiaochen nodded solemnly and said goodbye to Uncle Ye.
When she went back to look for Bai Muhan, Bai Muhan was not in the house.She searched around, but did not find Bai Muhan's figure.
Just when Tang Xiaochen was about to give up, she raised her eyes and saw a figure standing on the slope in the distance.
what is he doing there
Tang Xiaochen climbed up quickly, and when he was about to approach Bai Muhan, he quietly slowed down.She wanted to play tricks on Bai Muhan, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a tombstone.
The inscription on the tombstone reads Bai Yuanfeng, and Bai Muhan's mother is buried here.
"Stupid, come here." Although Bai Muhan didn't turn his head, judging from the sound of footsteps, he already knew it was her.
People who get along day and night, unconsciously, her every move will seep into her mind.So he doesn't need to see with his eyes, he just needs to listen with his heart.
"This is my mother, doesn't it look good?" Bai Muhan squatted beside the tombstone, reaching out to caress the portrait of his mother.
Tang Xiaochen had mixed feelings in his heart, nodded and said, "Auntie is so pretty, you are more like Auntie."
"Dad often said that, but I don't have any impression of my mother. As long as I can remember, Ling Meihua has been my mother." Bai Muhan pursed his lips tightly, without any expression on his face.
She knew that Bai Muhan was sad, so she hugged him in her arms, trying to comfort him.
In the eyes of outsiders, he is the aloof President Bai, but how many people understand the pain in his heart.If he could choose in life, he would rather not have these false names, and just want to be an ordinary person.There are fathers and mothers, the simplest family relationship in the world, and a love that goes with everything.
"Idiot, I often wonder if I did something wrong, if I shouldn't keep you by my side." Bai Muhan rested his head on Tang Xiaochen's chest, his face completely silent.
Tang Xiaochen comforted in a soft voice: "I know what you are afraid of, especially when you see your mother lying here, you are even more afraid. But you have to believe me, I promised you that you will not die, and you will definitely fulfill your promise."
"You really won't die, right?" Bai Muhan looked up at her, his eyes were as pure as a child's.
She had never seen Bai Muhan like this, it was as if a clear spring had been poured into his eyes, so pure that there was no trace of impurity.
Facing him like this, how could she have the heart to refuse, "Don't worry, I will definitely not die. I will always be with you until we are old, our hair is gray, and our teeth are gone. We will still be together. I I want to live longer than you, so I won't let you be alone."
"We will move here when we are old. The air here is very good and the environment is beautiful. No one bothers us, just the two of us."
Tang Xiaochen was looking forward to a better life in the future while talking. She instilled it in herself over and over again, as if she had seen the future in advance.
