The Silent Cherry And Plum Blossoms

The road was bumpy, and the car shook. Tao Zhenzhen opened his eyes drowsily, only to realize that he fell asleep at some point just now.

After the funeral was completely dealt with, she made a decisive decision, locked the house in her hometown, left a key to an elder she had known since childhood, and asked her to help with the cooking, so she called a car in the village and drove to the high-speed rail station.

She glanced out of the car window, the weather is fine today, it is a sunny day, the sky is high and blue, and the sky is blue.It is rare to see such a sky in Beicheng.

She took a few more glances, then looked away, and landed on the sleeping little girl next to her.

Porcelain white skin, black soft hair, it all resembles her.As for whether the eyebrows look more like her or another person.She didn't look at it carefully.In fact, she has deliberately ignored her existence these years.The amount of information she knew was what her father told her on the phone, and despite her intentional or unintentional screening, she was able to recall many details.

"I can't speak at the age of two, but luckily I can walk more vigorously."

"I'll name it Anzhi, and I hope she will be able to Anzhi and go along with whatever she encounters in the future."

"I can talk, but I don't like talking very much. In order to make her talk more, I spent time making her recite Tang poems that day, just like you."

"The child is very smart, but she is too quiet... Would you like to say a few words to her?"

Every time she was silent, after listening, she changed the topic.Father will be quiet for a few seconds over there, and then follow her topic.

Occasionally, he would jokingly say: "Who does such a quiet and introverted personality follow?"

She didn't know that she didn't have this temperament herself. She was very competitive since she was a child, loved to communicate with others, and loved to express her desires.He skipped grades in elementary school and was admitted to the best middle school in the town, and he was admitted to one of the best universities in the country in the imperial capital Beicheng in the college entrance examination.

If it wasn't for meeting Chen Muqi by accident and having a child after being confused for a while...

She didn't plan to have it at first, she was only a freshman at that time, her dream hadn't started yet, she had never thought about being an unwed mother, besides, Chen Muqi was a coward, his face turned pale when he heard that she was pregnant, he didn't even think about it. Dare to say whether he wants a child or not, his parents look at her as if she is going to cuddle up to their son.

Only her father stood up and said, "The child belongs to the Tao family."

Tao Zhenzhen's eyes were sore. Her father was the most responsible man she had ever met.He brought himself home at that time, and he was not afraid of gossip, and never said a serious word to her about this matter.After the child was born, he entrusted the student who is now working at the police station to be registered with Tao's family.Love this child as much as you love her.

But she herself was unwilling to face this child, and she didn't even take the initiative to mention her.Because she is the black history left behind by her ignorance, it is the condescending eyes of Chen Muqi's parents, it is she who transformed her from "other people's child" into "a degenerate underage girl who does not love herself" ".

Thinking of this, Tao Zhenzhen felt irritated in her heart. She glanced at the child again and found that she had woken up at some point and was staring at her quietly.

The pupils of those eyes were black and watery.Almond eyes and thin eyebrows gave her a very familiar feeling.

The impetuousness in her heart was a little stronger, and it really was the flesh that fell from her body. No matter how much she denied it, she couldn't hide the fact.

The child didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.

She turned her face away.

Arriving at the high-speed railway station in silence, Tao Zhenzhen opened the door and got off the car. The driver was a fellow from the same country, a dark and thin young man, who had brought her the suitcase, but he refused to accept her money.

Tao Zhenzhen wore a white dress, waist to waist, chest to chest, beautiful like a flowing light, attracting countless eyes.

The honest young man peeked at her several times before leaving contentedly.

The car drove away, leaving behind two women, one big and one small.The big one has tired eyes, with a suitcase in his hands, and the small one is young, carrying a little rabbit schoolbag.

Before entering the high-speed rail station, Tao Zhenzhen glanced back, knowing that she would never come back.

She raised her head and said, "Let's go."

Tao Anzhi was carrying a small schoolbag and chasing after her in small steps. She was very thin at the age of six. She had never been to this kind of place before, and she felt that it was noisy and strange. She looked up at the woman, and she held the suitcase in one hand. The other hand was free, with soft white fingers.

She waited for a long time until she got into the car, but she didn't see that hand reach out to pull her.

They sat in the second-class seat, and there were not many people.Beside them was a young couple with a three or four-year-old boy.The little boy was not used to riding in a car, and he vomited shortly after driving. He looked at his parents with red eyes, and his mother comforted him: "It's okay, baby, Mommy asked the flight attendant to clean it up."

His father patted his head, and after helping to clean up, he hugged him on his lap and watched cartoons of cat and mouse with him, and his mother gave him water with a smile.

Tao Anzhi looked at them for a long time, but she couldn't hold back and glanced to the side.The woman's face was slightly sideways, a pair of sunglasses covered a large area of ​​her face, and she had already fallen asleep.

An Zhi turned his head around, hugged the small schoolbag on his chest, paused, and buried his head in it.

After two days in Beicheng, Tao Zhenzhen finally got in touch with Chen Muqi. It took her three phone calls to let him fully digest the fact that "one of them must take over the child".

After finally making an appointment to meet and discuss, she put down the phone and let out a long breath.

She graduated this year, has passed the GRE with high scores, and has even been accepted to a good university in California.

It was hard for her to walk on the path she wanted to go, and no one could stop her. She had to do her best to let Chen Muqi take the child away.

So she was cruel, she admitted, refusing to make much eye contact with the kid.This child is also very quiet as her father said, not noisy.Do what you are asked to do, and eat what you are given.It was so quiet that there was no sense of presence.

Except that after wearing the new clothes she bought, she pulled the sleeves and said in a low voice: "It's too big..."

Tao Zhenzhen glanced at it, the sleeves were too much, and the skirt was too long.She frowned, and the salesperson clearly told her that it was worn by a six-year-old child.

Tao Zhenzhen sized her up and guessed that the child was indeed not as tall as a six-year-old, and was too short.

She couldn't speak for a moment, squatted down, rolled up her sleeves twice, and said after a pause, "I just want to buy a bigger one so that I can wear it for a longer time..."

Then I don’t know why and added: "Kids grow up fast... so they usually buy big clothes..."

Tao Anzhi looked at her and nodded his head: "Grandpa said the same thing..."

Tao Zhenzhen paused, feeling a little warm in his heart.After a few seconds, she said: "Grandpa just left, we can't wear too bright clothes...wait...to buy..."

In the end, I can't say "I'll buy it for you later".

Because promises come true.It can only be so vague.

There was a glimmer of light in Tao Anzhi's eyes, her little mouth turned up, and she nodded her head again.

Tao Zhenzhen stood up uncomfortably.

At this time, the doorbell rang and the steps were given to her just in time.

Tao Zhenzhen went to open the door.

Tao Anzhi poked his head out from behind her, sizing up the visitor carefully. He is 1.7 meters tall, has slightly long and slightly curly hair, a white t-shirt, a big hole on one side of his jeans, and a little ink.The whole person is handsome and clean, because he is too thin, he has a weak literary temperament.

His skin was very fair, even comparable to that of Tao Zhenzhen. When he met her eyes, he scratched his hair and smiled awkwardly: "Hi..."

The expression on Tao Zhenzhen's face was indifferent mixed with a bit of melancholy, she nodded: "Come in..."

As soon as Chen Muqi stepped in, he saw a little girl who looked more than four years old standing in the living room, wearing a black skirt with a white tie, looking up at him with curious water-black eyes, her cheeks were puffy.Like a small, slender flower bud just emerging from the water in a spring pond.

Chen Muqi took a step hesitantly, and bent down.

Tao Zhenzhen's voice sounded: "Anzhi, this is your father."

Chen Muqi seemed to be stung by something suddenly, rubbed his hands together, and forced a little smile.He said dryly: "Hi...Anzhi..."

An Zhi blinked his eyes, rubbed his small hands on the hem of his skirt, and just opened his mouth, when the man in front of him turned his face away abruptly.

She was stunned. .

Chen Muqi was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a place to sneak in.What are you kidding?He felt that he hadn't grown up yet, and he didn't live a very clear life, so he was about to become a "father" all of a sudden.

Not all of a sudden, he was already a father, but Tao Zhenzhen was taken back by her father that year, and he didn't hear much news after that.He experienced the initial trembling, and slowly put the matter on the shelf, and as time passed, it seemed that he really forgot about it.

Just kidding, he never thought about having children or getting married.The two elder brothers above him have already married and have four children.His parents and his elder brother are both businessmen and rough people, only he wanted to be a painter since he was a child, and even changed his name to Mu Qi.Qi is Qi Baishi.

It was really unlucky to say, it was just a simple sex act, he had safety measures, who knew that the "safety measures" were not reliable at all, his "seeds" took root and sprouted in Tao Zhenzhen's fertile land, until Now, it has become the living "fruit" in front of me that cannot be ignored.

Before coming here, Chen Muqi thought tremblingly, Tao Zhenzhen's father was dead, would she push the child to herself?

Speaking of them, Tao Zhenzhen's guardianship conditions are much better than him. He graduated from a prestigious university with excellent grades. He will definitely find a good job and take care of children.

As for him, Chen Muqi, although his family has money, it belongs to his parents. He now receives living expenses from his parents every month. A well-known painter in the industry needs to pay 20 yuan a year to study painting, not to mention collecting folk songs from time to time. He has no time or conditions to take care of a child.

Before coming, he thought about so many things over and over before he felt a little more settled.

Yes, the kid must not follow him.
