[Pretender] Branch Road

"Minglou, I want to go and see the parturient woman and her baby I sent to the hospital today." Diane tried to get up from the hospital bed. She didn't feel it when she was lying down, but when she sat up, she felt dizzy so badly that the whole ceiling felt Like turning again.

"I suggest you take a good rest first." Ming Lou supported Di An, looked at her somewhat pale face and shook his head in disapproval. "Sorry, I didn't notice your recent physical condition."

"No, I must go and see them now." Di'an insisted on getting out of bed, Ming Lou could only find a wheelchair and push Di'an out of the room.

When Mingcheng returned to the ward after paying the discharge fee, no one was there.

Minglou pushed Di'an to the obstetrics and gynecology department on the third floor. She didn't know which ward the mother was in, nor did she know the name of the woman, so she could only look for it from ward to ward.Minglou couldn't understand why she was so interested in this mother and child.After searching a few rooms, Diane finally found the mother and child in Ward 321.The mother remembers Diane. When Diane came in, the mother was surprised and pushed her husband to thank Diane.

"Fortunately, my wife was kind enough to save my wife, otherwise my youngest son must have had an accident in such a dangerous situation." Dai Nanqing strode up to Di An and bowed deeply to her, which shocked Di An suddenly Stand up from the wheelchair and help him.

"It's just a matter of little effort." Di An clenched her lips to control her emotions. When Dai Nanqing raised her head, the old yellowed photo in her memory overlapped with the man in front of her.Diane gasped, "Can I see the baby?"

"Of course." Dai Nanqing turned around and carried the newborn baby out of the small cradle to Di An.

Diane reached out and took the child, the eyes of the little child were still open, probably due to malnutrition, the little baby's hair was sparse and there was not much flesh on the cheeks.But Diane knew, that's it, it was him, with the same tear mole at the corner of his eye.After seeing the child, Diane felt surprisingly peaceful in her heart. She smiled and touched the tear mole in the corner of the child's eyes, "Has his name been decided yet?"

"I've already thought about it, so I'll call it Dai Lurong." Dai Nanqing said with a smile, "My eldest son's name is Lu Ren, so he will be called Lu Rong."

"That's a really good name." Di An still looked at Lu Rong blankly, and suddenly his eyes were blurred.Big tears fell down the baby's face. "He's going to be an amazing person when he grows up."

"Really? I owe you a good word!" Dai Nanqing looked at Dian with a smirk and touched the back of her head, "Is it my illusion? I always feel that this lady has a very kind face and a very kind feeling."

Probably Diane's emotions affected the little baby, the child sniffled, grinned and cried.

"Wow!", very loud.

"Di'an, what's the matter with you?" Minglou immediately saw that something was wrong with Di'an, and he hurriedly returned the baby to her.Diane was fine in the morning, why is her mood so unstable now?

"It's okay, I just miss my daughter..." Diane wiped away her tears in a hurry, but she still couldn't control her emotions, and the more tears she wiped away.In the end, she could only cover her face and sob in a low voice.Seeing this, Ming Lou had no choice but to take her back to his ward. Who knew that Di An would completely lose control as soon as he returned to his ward.Diane lay on the bed and wailed loudly, laughing and crying at the same time.Mingcheng looked at his elder brother blankly, "What's wrong with little cousin?"

"I don't know, I lost control all of a sudden." Ming Lou patted Di An on the shoulder to comfort her, then turned his head and said to Ming Cheng, "Ah Cheng, go drive first, we will get down soon .”

"Okay." Mingcheng nodded and left the room.

"Okay Diane, no one's here. Can you tell me what happened?"

"That child...that child..." Diane sobbed, his eyes were red from crying, "that child...is my grandfather."

****

After coming to this era alone, Diane never thought that one day she would meet her relatives again.I heard from my father that when she was born, my grandfather held her in the same way and said, "This child must grow up to be a great person." But Diane did not become a great person.After another era, Di An hugged his grandfather and said to him, "He will become a great person when he grows up." Not long after Di An was born, his great-grandfather and great-grandmother Dai Nanqing and Zhang Airu passed away. So they are not in Diane's memory, and seeing them when they were young is just a little more touching and close.But grandpa is different.The feeling of holding grandpa with my own hands is different, and it feels like a world away.

This also tells Diane that the birth of grandpa will lead to the birth of father, and then Diane may be born again.Therefore, most of the self in this era will probably die.In order to disappear or die for one's own birth in the future.When my grandma had a difficult labor and my grandpa almost died, Diane became transparent.In other words, if the original trajectory of the ancestors is destroyed, it will affect the future.As long as he takes a wrong step, he will not be able to be born in the future, and the present self will just disappear like this.

The appearance of grandpa gave Diane more family members but at the same time told Diane a fact.

"In the future, I may not be able to grow old with you." Di'an wiped away tears and said to Minglou with a smile, "So, you have to cherish me from now on, and cherish every day we are together. "

Minglou didn't speak, he just hugged Diane tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.It took him a while to speak, his voice a little hoarse.

"It's hard for us to be together."

Di'an buried her head in Minglou's chest and wept uncontrollably.

As for Diane fainting before, the doctor diagnosed it as a pregnancy reaction after excluding various diseases.After six years, Diane became pregnant again.What is conceived in her stomach is the offspring of the Ming family.But she didn't know what would happen to Hao Hao, and what would happen to this child if she disappeared.Will they disappear together? ?Will I be forgotten by everyone like in the novel, and I will not remember myself, as if I never existed.

Diane started keeping a diary and wrote it every day.Even what I ate today will be written in the diary.Only in this way can we leave traces of our own existence.

Minglou told Mingjing about Diane's pregnancy.Ming Jing was so excited that he called back in the middle of the night and told Di An to give him some advice, and even asked Di An to move to his hometown.But Diane refused, she wanted to spend time with Minglou.

"The war will end soon. As soon as it is over, I will take you and leave here with Haohao and our children."

"Okay, I think about where we're going then."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Ming Lou always feels that Di An's spirit is getting worse day by day.Although there is nothing special on the surface.

43 years is too long and too short, Diane feels that it is not long before the new year, 44 years.During the Chinese New Year this year, there are only Dian and two Ming brothers in the Ming family.There is still one year left before the end of the war.

During the night vigil, Di'an fell asleep with his pillow on Minglou's shoulder.Ming Lou and Di An sat on the sofa, covered with blankets.Minglou read the book, Dian's breathing was steady and long.After a while, Ming Lou glanced sideways at Di An, who was sleeping soundly, carefully picked her up and carried her back to the bedroom.Ming Lou sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Di An's sleeping face, then bent down and kissed her on the forehead.

Minglou walked into the ancestral hall of the Ming family lightly, and he lit a stick of incense.Then he knelt in front of the tablets of the ancestors of the Ming family.

Ming Lou knelt down for one night.Mingcheng got up early the next morning to exercise early and found the door of the ancestral hall was open, and only then did he realize that Minglou had knelt inside it all night.

"The unworthy descendant Minglou begs the ancestors and ancestors to protect the daughter-in-law of the Ming family, Diane." After saying this, Minglou bent down and knocked heavily on the mat.
