Tolerate

At some point, Chi Muyun leaned against Lu Qingming and fell asleep in a daze.

The whole family woke up very early the next day, and everyone looked tired.Ling Suzhen walked into the kitchen and asked Aunt Wu to put an extra egg in the noodles for breakfast.

Chi Muyun's face was so pale that there was no blood, and she felt distressed after seeing it.

Thinking of what her mother-in-law told her and her husband, and her father-in-law's last words before his death, she felt even more uncomfortable.

Before, Ling Suzhen always thought that she was tolerant enough.

She felt that she neither beat and scolded Chi Muyun and Lu Qingming, nor forced Chi Muyun to marry and have children according to her own wishes, so she was already an enlightened and tolerant mother.

However, was she really right for her silent cold violence against Chi Muyun in the past two or three months?

Chi Muyun has been sensitive since she was a child, and what she can't bear the most is when others treat her badly, not to mention that it is her own mother who treats her like this.

When Lu Qingming heard that her great-grandfather was critically ill, she ran back regardless of the exam, which also loosened the ice in her heart a little.

She doesn't dislike Lu Qingming at all, and even likes him.

But how she wished this was a child who had nothing to do with her.

She is even willing to accept that Chi Muyun likes women, but only hopes that this person is not Lu Qingming.

If this matter gets out, she won't talk about herself anymore, and Chi Muyun and Lu Qingming will be pointed out by many people—those who know each other and those who are related, those who are related or not, will all attack together.

She didn't want her two children to be hurt like this.

There are so many people in the world, wouldn't it be okay to change someone's love?

After going to the countryside for an old-fashioned funeral and burying Grandpa Chi in Nanshan, except for grandma and Ling Suzhen and Chi Tianxiang, everyone else has to go back to work for the time being and wait until the first seven to come back.

Lu Qingming also went back with Chi Muyun.

On Lu Qingming Road, she asked the Academic Affairs Office about the make-up exam. She said that the make-up exam would be after the summer vacation, and the procedure would not be troublesome, so she was relieved.

Lin Wei also called Chi Muyun, "I heard about your family's affairs, my condolences...you don't have to worry about work matters, I can transfer others to complete them, you can rest for a few more days."

Chi Muyun declined Lin Wei's kindness.She has wasted a lot of time.

A lot of work has to be done before grandpa's first seven days. Chi Muyun has been spinning around for the past two days, and his already slender body has become even thinner.

"Yun, you don't catch a cold, do you?" In the evening, Lu Qingming turned on a pool of hot water to bathe Chi Muyun. Seeing that Chi Muyun's face was flushed, he squatted down and pressed his forehead against her.

"Probably not...it's because the bath water is relatively hot." Chi Muyun wrapped his arms around her, and said with a tired and lazy face.

As a result, in the middle of the night, Chi Muyun really had a fever.Lu Qingming took care of her for half the night, getting her medicine and candy for a while, getting up to change her towels for her, and taking her temperature...

When it was almost dawn, Chi Muyun's fever subsided, and he slept much more peacefully.

Lu Qingming stared at her peaceful sleeping face, lowered his head and touched those soft lips, then took out his phone and sent Chi Muqiu a WeChat message.

The next day, when Chi Muyun walked out of the company after work, he saw Lu Qingming sitting in the lobby.She walked over and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Lu Qingming has been helping her cook at home for the past two days.

Lu Qingming took her handbag, hugged her shoulders, and said with a smile, "I want to come and pick you up."

Chi Muyun smiled.

When he got home and opened the door, Chi Muyun could smell the aroma of food.Aunt Wu poked her head out of the kitchen and said with a smile, "Are you back? The food will be ready soon!"

Chi Muyun was stunned for a moment, and heard Aunt Wu chanting while serving dishes, "Your mother heard that you were sick, but she was worried about you, so she asked me to come over and make you delicious food. When you had a cold and fever when you were young, you loved it." Eat the radish lump soup made by my aunt..."

Seeing her in a daze, Lu Qingming helped her take off her thin coat from behind, and took the opportunity to peck her on the cheek, "Go and wash your hands, I'm hungry."

Needless to say, Aunt Wu's craftsmanship was the one that suited Chi Muyun's appetite the most. After eating two small bowls of pimple soup, she broke into a little sweat, feeling like she was alive.

"My mother... how did she know that I was sick?" Chi Muyun asked while drinking the soup slowly.

Aunt Wu said, "Miss Xiaoqiu probably told her."

Chi Muyun stopped eating, "Then... how did Xiao Qiu know, I didn't tell her?"

Lu Qingming scratched his face, bowed his head and said, "I told my aunt. Yun, my uncle cares about you very much, you should make up with her, and talk to her more often when you go home."

Aunt Wu also chattered, "Xiaoyun, did you quarrel with your wife? The relatives need to communicate..."

At night, Chi Muyun lay down early.

When Lu Qingming came out of the shower, he didn't wear a shirt, just put a towel around his neck, and his hair was tied wet on the top of his head.

Seeing her coming out, Chi Muyun patted his side, "Come here."

Lu Qingming rolled his big eyes, but sat down obediently.

"Put on your clothes." Seeing her rascal-like appearance, Chi Muyun almost couldn't help laughing.

The smile on his lips was a rare happy expression since grandpa left.

"Why did you tell Xiao Qiu that I was sick?" Chi Muyun looked at her and asked.

Lu Qingming scratched his head, "I think my eldest aunt will definitely tell my uncle. My uncle is very worried about you, I can see that."

Chi Muyun almost laughed angrily, "You already know?" This person didn't discuss with her, and passed information to Chi Muqiu casually, and he wasn't afraid of self-defeating.

Lu Qingming was still scratching his head, "I only know that you are the one who loves my aunt the most. She must be worried about your illness. Yun," she paused, "Is it because of me that you are going to work in Xiangzhou?"

She wants to hear both "yes" and "no."This complex feeling of wanting to be loved by Chi Muyun and not wanting to be so ashamed is really uncomfortable.

Chi Muyun looked at her, and still held her hand with a sigh, "Yes, and no."

"This is also my career." Chi Muyun said softly.

To be honest, when Aunt Wu told her that Ling Suzhen was worried about her, she had the urge to cry.This is the first time she has had such a big conflict with her mother since she was a child.

But she doesn't regret her choice. The only thing she regrets is that she shouldn't be so proud and should go home often to see her grandparents.

But some things, the past is the past, and there is no way to make up for it in this lifetime.

Chi Muyun's eyes were moist.

Seeing Chi Muyun holding his hand and not speaking, Lu Qingming thought that she probably knew what Chi Muyun was thinking.

"Yun, don't worry, really." She slowly brought Chi Muyun's hand close to her face, "You can take your time, I want to see you healthier, happier and less regretful..."

After receiving Chi Muyun's call, Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief, "Xiaochi, you should have told me a long time ago. I'm very sorry about Grandpa. The matter of the branch office can be resolved slowly. The most important thing now is that you have to raise Take care of your health and take care of your family, and talk to me about it when the situation at home is stable."

Lin Wei, who is middle-aged, just attended Shi Xiaorou's mother's funeral a few years ago.A few days before her mother passed away, Shi Xiaorou had quarreled with her mother.

The fate between people is so deep and fragile, life and death can end it forever.

Lin Wei hopes that such regrets will be less.

On the day of Grandpa Chi's first seven days, the weather was gloomy, and it seemed that a heavy rain was brewing.

Sure enough, after people had eaten in the small courtyard, the sky in the distance was filled with thunder.Relatives and neighbors bid farewell and went home one after another.

"Sister, my grades are down." Xiao Zhuzi said to Lu Qingming before leaving, "I did well in the exam, at least I won't get into the worst high school."

Xiao Zhuzi has worked very hard this year, at least he has worked harder than before.

"My mother said..." Xiao Zhuzi suddenly became coy, "Let me thank you and let you come to my house for dinner tomorrow."

Lu Qingming often tutored Xiao Zhuzi with his homework.

"Well," Lu Qingming nodded, "Okay, no thanks."

She wanted to say that it was fine to eat.Grandpa and grandma have already visited her when she came back yesterday.For her, those few rooms in the Lu family did not have any good memories worth recalling.If you really want to reminisce, there should be only a few scenes where Chi Muyun was present.

"Go, let's go and see the sheep, how about it?" Chi Muyun said suddenly.

Lu Qingming hesitated for a moment, then nodded.Chi Muyun wants to see the sheep, so let's go.

Ling Suzhen listened to their words.She thought, what are these two children going to do?What's so good about sheep?

Thinking of this, she suddenly heard Chi Muyun say, "Mom, tomorrow...do you want to visit my aunt's house?"

By accident, Ling Suzhen showed a kind smile on her face, nodded and said, "Okay."

So the next day Ling Suzhen followed the two "children" to hang out with relatives for a day.

Chi Muyun's tense nerves these days are all relaxed.Sitting on the hillside and looking at the flock of sheep halfway up the mountain, she thought, is grandpa watching the sheep with them too?

"Grandma, there is 'Polygalus' here." Lu Qingming dug a small hole with a small shovel, and there was an inconspicuous purple flower plant with long roots. This is the herb "Polygalus".

Lu Qingming dug this to sell money when he was a child.

Seeing the girl's big, clear eyes, Ling Suzhen paused for a moment, then reached out to take Yuan Zhi over.

"The current Yuan Zhi is not as big as it used to be." Ling Suzhen squeezed the stem and sighed.

"Well, it's really not as big as before. Abuse of pesticides, over-cultivation, etc. have something to do with it." Lu Qingming dug out another licorice, poked the soil with his hands, took a bite, and grinned. chewed up.

Ling Suzhen couldn't help laughing.

The old and the young are enjoying themselves on the mountain.

After laughing, Ling Suzhen put on a straight face again.Because she saw Lu Qingming deliberately moved his body to block Chi Muyun's sunlight.

Ling Suzhen's mood went back and forth like this.

It wasn't until the morning when the family was about to leave for the capital that Chi Muyun said, "Mom, I won't be going to Xiangzhou for the time being."

Ling Suzhen stopped her chopsticks, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she asked, "What did you say?"

"Grandpa just left, I want to spend more time with you." Chi Muyun lowered his head and ate a mouthful of food.

Lu Qingming's hand held her under the table and squeezed her soothingly.

This is the result of discussions between the two of them.

Ling Suzhen was a little surprised and unaccustomed to her daughter's sudden retreat, and she didn't know how to respond for a while.

"Hey, Xiaoyun is so sensible, why are you still frowning?" Chi Tianxiang smoothed things over, "Xiaoyun, you also have your own affairs to do, grandpa's affairs have nothing to do with you, the doctor also said that grandpa is getting old, Just..." He said, his eyes were a little red, and he coughed quickly, "So you don't have to think too much about it."

Chi Muyun let out a "hmm".Ling Suzhen didn't speak, but just glanced at Lu Qingming.

Lu Qingming's summer vacation plan is to learn the driver's license.

Hearing about her plan, Xu Linlin gloated a little, "I failed the exam several times, so I don't believe you can."

Wang Yaning patted the back of her hand, with a bit of reproach in his eyes, and then typed with one hand, "You should be fine, come on."

Xu Yanfeng: "I also think Qingming is fine. She has a very developed motor nerve, unlike someone who failed college sports."

Xu Linlin issued an exclamation point, followed by a bunch of garbled characters, and immediately withdrew. She and Wang Yaning remained silent for a long time.

Xu Yanfeng gloated, "She is afraid that she will be killed by Yaning."

Lu Qingming...

Lu Qingming, "Let's have dinner together tomorrow, that... Yun invites you to eat."

This time the "homework team" did not make an appointment at the familiar barbecue restaurant, but at a hot pot restaurant.

Although it's summer, the girls all want to eat hot pot, so Chi Muyun naturally has no objection.

Chi Muyun and Lu Qingming arrived early on purpose and found a better seat to sit down.Chi Muyun tied a loose ponytail and wore a sleeveless dress made of crisp material, looking cool and lazy.

"Yun, you look so good today." Lu Qingming whispered in her ear.

"When will I not look good?" Chi Muyun smiled and joked.

Lu Qingming smiled, pulled out the phone camera, put his arms around Chi Muyun's shoulders, and took a selfie.

"If you want to take pictures, come to me." Xu Yanfeng suddenly appeared, and said with a smile, "How are you, little sister?"

Lu Qingming was also polite, and handed her the phone directly.

Chi Muyun was a little embarrassed at first - she used to appear in front of Xu Yanfeng as an elder.

But Xu Yanfeng's relaxed tone made her calmer.

Xu Linlin and Wang Yaning stepped on it.Xu Linlin took a long time to put on makeup. If Wang Yaning hadn't urged her, she might have been put on until what time.

"Good afternoon~" The two girls greeted Chi Muyun, Chi Muyun nodded and smiled, "Hello."

The girls were not polite when ordering, and ordered a lot of delicious food.When the beer was served, Xu Yanfeng poured a glass for everyone, raised the glass and said, "Lu Qingming, it's not interesting, I didn't tell our friends until now, should I be punished!"

Because of Chi Muyun's presence, Xu Linlin became more "introverted", "Wen Wen quietly" said, "Punish yourself three cups."

Xu Yanfeng's eyes widened, "You...you are so cruel. I just wanted to punish her with a drink."

Xu Linlin said "shyly", "Three cups are actually not much."

It took Lu Qingming so long to tell these friends that to be honest, Xu Yanfeng, Wang Yaning, and Xu Linlin still felt a little uncomfortable, but Lu Qingming also explained that he wanted to introduce them face to face when he came back from the summer vacation. Completely unwrapped.

This was the first meeting as Lu Qingming's girlfriend, so Chi Muyun naturally prepared a gift.

Xu Linlin's is lipstick.

Xu Yanfeng's is a sports bracelet.

Wang Yaning's is a watch.

No one asked them why they dared to be together in such a relationship, and no one asked them if they were afraid of opposition from their families.

Chi Muyun believes that they are all people who know the way.

Learning a driver's license, cooking for Chi Muyun, going back to the Chi family's old house to accompany the elders... This summer vacation has passed quietly.

If you want to ask which time in college that impressed Lu Qingming the most, then Lu Qingming will definitely answer the time of long-distance relationship.

In fact, that time was not long, and it was nothing more than the first half of her freshman year and the first half of her sophomore year.

It's just that he stayed with young master Chi Muyun for a short year, 365 days, and 8760 hours.

No, no, no, the days when they dated are also excluded, which is 356 days, 8544 hours.

Not uncomfortable at all, not lonely at all, eh.

When thinking about Chi Muyun, Lu Qingming would go to his own field to study crops, or go to the laboratory to do experiments.

At the most uncomfortable time, she memorized professional books over and over again, and her roommates thought she was sick.

But as long as she thinks that Chi Muyun will be like her as much as she thinks about Chi Muyun, the corners of her mouth can't help but smile.

It was a sunny afternoon, and the footsteps of spring had quietly approached.Chi Muyun chatted with grandma in the greenhouse.

Grandpa has been gone for more than half a year, and grandma sometimes can't remember things clearly, but she just likes to talk.

Talk about many, many past events.

"Do you still remember the second blind man in our village?" Grandma suddenly asked Chi Muyun, "When you were young, he even told your fortune."

Chi Muyun remembered that there was a blind fortune teller in the village, but she didn't remember that this blind man had told her fortune.

"Speaking of you, fate is blessed, and you meet noble people in the southeast." Grandma murmured.

Chi Muyun thought it was a problem with his memory, but suddenly he heard Chi Muqiu laugh and say, "Grandma has a wrong memory. I heard about this from our mother. It was grandma who told us about it. Grandma used to put the horoscope of Qingming I showed it to the blind man, and the blind man just said this sentence, and also said-no money is not allowed."

"Southeast..." Chi Muyun looked at grandma suspiciously.

Grandma smiled and explained, "My house is located in the southeast of your house. Are you sure? You drove the sheep to the house and met Xiaoyun. Do you think Xiaoyun is a nobleman?"

Chi Muyun couldn't help smiling.It turns out that there is such a thing.

The blind man in the village had passed away a long time ago, and he didn't know which kind of god it was, and he didn't know if it was wrong, but he was half right.

The other half... Chi Muyun thought to himself, Xiao Lu is also my nobleman.

"Why don't you go to work?" Grandma said suddenly again, looking at Chi Muyun with a pair of cloudy but sharp eyes.

Chi Muqiu laughed again, "Grandma is disgusting with you. Grandma must be bored of you coming every day."

Grandma shook her head, "No, I'm asking why you haven't gone to Xiangzhou yet."

Chi Muyun was slightly taken aback.Is grandma old and confused, or not?

"It's time to go, Xiaoyun." Grandma waved her hand, "I know you're going to open a magazine over there and take care of Qingming. Qingming is about to graduate, right?"

Before Chi Muyun could speak, grandma looked at her and said lovingly, "If you don't go, she will graduate."

On this day, Lu Qingming invited Ling Shuang to go to the school lake to catch many bugs.This is the task left by the entomology teacher to make specimens.

Just as he was about to walk back with bottles and cans, Miao Fang's call suddenly came, and his voice sounded urgent, "Qingming, someone is looking for you..."

There was a loud noise over there.Lu Qingming thought to himself, probably someone is looking for trouble with her again.A while ago, a girl from the dormitory next door chased Lu Qingming, and Lu Qingming must have refused.But one of the girl's male suitors was very upset, and broke into the women's dormitory to warn Lu Qingming. At that time, Lu Qingming was endorsing a book on the rooftop, and Miao Fang called her in this tone.

Lu Qingming talked to Ling Shuang and started walking back quickly.I wonder if this grandson is not afraid of her fist anymore, and wants to fight head-on?The last time she frightened a few words, that grandson was scared.

Lu Qingming wouldn't hit anyone, but—except in the case of self-defense.

Walking briskly to the downstairs of the dormitory, she suddenly stopped.

A woman in an off-white windbreaker with long hair and a shawl stood at the door of the building, with one hand in her pocket, and she tiptoed lightly from time to time, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

When Lu Qingming got excited, the plastic bag in his hand fell to the ground with a loud crash, a lot of bottles and cans were broken, and insects crawled and flew.

There were flying insects between the two of them, both of them were stunned.

Chi Muyun's "surprise" ended with the two cleaning up the bugs together.

Hotel at night.

The air conditioner was not turned on high, but the two of them were still sweating profusely.

Chi Muyun wanted to take a bath, but Lu Qingming pressed her shoulder, "I'll take a shower later...and lie down later."

They haven't seen each other for a month.

"Yun, when are you coming back?" Lu Qingming looked at her and asked, "Have you bought the ticket yet?"

"What ticket?" Chi Muyun stroked her hair lazily, "Just go back to the company and drive."

Lu Qingming reacted for a while.

Yes!She is so stupid, Chi Muyun came here by car!

"...Does my aunt agree with you coming over? Is the branch settled?" Lu Qingming suppressed his ecstatic heartbeat, turned over and asked her.

Chi Muyun was amused by her excited look, and also felt a little sad, and said softly, "Didn't I come here already?"

Grandma said she had to come over quickly.

Grandma is her family.

Xiaolu is also her family.
