at the same time.

The third floor of the Sheng family.

Sheng Jie helped Sheng Qing'an who had trouble walking, followed by Qin Huai and Zhu Yan, and the group slowly came to the door of a room.

The old mahogany door has many traces of small knife carvings on it, like a fish without a tail, like a bird with a big mouth, like a small house with a chimney.

There are also some deep and shallow scratches that cannot be discerned. At first glance, the wooden door is full of mottled scars.

Above the door frame, there is a string of blue dolphin wind chimes. When the wind blows, several glass dolphins collide with each other, making a crisp sound.

The wooden door is very old, and it takes a lot of effort to push it open, and there will be a harsh "squeak" sound.

Zhu Yan silently followed behind them without speaking, and quietly observed everything in the room.

She didn't know what it was like in the room where Qin Huai lived before he disappeared, but as far as she could see, there were old things that had been there for some years.

It's not hard to guess that just now when Uncle Ming was downstairs, he specially emphasized that the arrangement was exactly the same as the one before Qin Huai left, and he didn't mean to brag at all.

There are all kinds of decorations that children like in the room. Altman’s model alone fills the entire cabinet. Next to the cabinet is a bookcase, which is filled with various children’s picture books, and some about physics experiments. books.

Sheng Qing'an sat down on a wooden chair in front of the desk, while Sheng Jie stood beside him quietly.

She was the most noisy just now, and she was the one who wanted to come upstairs. Now that her son was really in it, she became quiet.

Zhu Yan followed Qin Huai around the room, and finally the two of them stopped in front of a square glass photo frame in unison.

The photo frame is not big, and it is crowded with photos, one by one, most of them are black and white.

Zhu Yan saw at a glance the family photo that Sheng Jie took out when she was in Zhulin Village that day.

Next to the family portrait is a wedding photo, also in black and white.In the photo, the man is wearing a neat suit, and the woman is wearing a white wedding dress, with happy smiles on their faces.

There is no doubt that the happy couple in the photo are Sheng Qingan and Xu Suying when they were young.

Zhu Yan carefully looked at the mother-in-law in the photo. She was about in her early 20s, with a pair of twisted braids.Her face is not big, with a standard melon-shaped face, which makes the entire facial features sharp and angular, which inexplicably gives people a fresh and refined feeling.

Looking at the children of the Sheng family, the one most similar to Xu Suying should be Sheng Jie.

Qin Huai's eyebrows and eyes have a bit of Xu Suying's shadow, but his facial features are the same as Sheng Qingan's.

As for Sheng Jinyan...

There was no sign of Sheng Qing'an on him at all, he might be more like Yu Caiping, anyway, Zhu Yan didn't look him in the eye a few times.

"Abba and Aunt were married for life privately at that time. Grandpa always opposed their affairs because he disliked Aba's family being poor. Later, Ama became pregnant with me by accident. In order to prevent Aba Mother was reprimanded for having a child out of wedlock, and after kneeling in the heavy rain for a whole day and night, Grandpa finally agreed to their marriage."

"When they went to take wedding photos, they just got the approval of their grandfather, so they couldn't wait to go. At that time, my son and father were still having a high fever because of the rain. However, the two lovers finally came together. Together, it’s all worth it.”

At some point, Sheng Jie had already walked behind Qin Huai and Zhu Yan, staring at Xu Suying in the photo, the corners of her mouth curled up, but her eyes were already full of tears.

Things were unpredictable, at that time, Sheng Qing'an was full of Xu Suying, and he never thought that in the future, he would lose his precious son and Xu Suying died of depression because of another woman's unprovoked frame-up.

What is even more shocking is that he finally married the woman who caused his wife to be separated into his family.

Perhaps even Sheng Qing'an felt that he owed Xu Suying something, so for so many years, he had people lock the entire third floor, except for Xu Suying's death day every year, he would bring Sheng Jie up to offer incense to her, and everything else Time, no one can step into this world full of memories of Xu Suying and Sheng Che.

until……

The appearance of Qinhuai.

Sheng Jie's words successfully evoked some past memory fragments in Sheng Qing'an's mind.

He and Xu Suying were childhood sweethearts, and Sheng Qing'an's father was a long-term worker of the Xu family, and they grew up together.Later, when she reached the age when her love affair began, she made a private decision for life.

For a big family like the Xu family, how could they value the son of a long-term worker.

It was Xu Suying's bravery and persistence that brought them together in the end.

"I'm the one who's sorry for your grandma. If I hadn't suggested going to the shopping mall for the festival, Che'er wouldn't have gotten lost, and your grandma wouldn't have suffered a heart attack because of this, and died of hatred in the end."

Sheng Qing'an's hoarse voice was tinged with guilt and remorse, which fell in the ears of several juniors, and they all felt distressed towards this old man in his twilight years.

Suddenly, Sheng Qing'an seemed to remember something, suppressed the grief on his face, and looked at Qin Huai with a serious expression, "Che'er, do you still remember who took you away in the shopping mall?"

Sheng Qing'an dropped such a question out of the blue. For a moment, the whole room was so quiet that a needle could be heard, and the atmosphere became tense instantly. Everyone looked at Qin Huai in unison.

Sheng Jie only felt it was funny in her heart. She had told Sheng Qing'an the answer to this question as early as 20 years ago when Sheng Che disappeared.

But no matter what she said, he just didn't believe it.

She was 13 years old that year. Although she didn't understand the dangers of human nature, she also understood the ways of the world. What she said, Sheng Qing'an found it unbelievable. So what can Sheng Che, who is only three years old, remember?

Or, what answer did Sheng Qing'an want to get from Sheng Che?

Sheng Jie suppressed the anger in her heart, she always felt that Sheng Qing'an was still trying to find ways to excuse Yu Caiping.

When Fan Sheng Che replied "I don't know" or "I don't remember", he would be able to tell everyone with peace of mind in the future that Yu Caiping didn't do what happened back then.

At the moment when everyone's eyes fell on Qin Huai, Qin Huai's lips curled up, and he raised his hand to stroke Xu Suying's photo twice, then turned his gaze to Sheng Qingan's body.

"Actually, after all these years, Dad already has the answer in his heart, doesn't he?"

Staring with all four eyes, Sheng Qing'an and Qin Huai's eyes collided in mid-air.

In Qin Huai's persuasive and indifferent gaze, there was a flustered reflection of Sheng Qing'an.

As Sheng Jie guessed, Sheng Qing'an had long thought of excuses for Yu Caiping, and he just wanted to solemnly tell them in front of the children that Yu Caiping was not wrong.

But he thought a lot, and never thought that Qin Huai would answer him like this.

Even when he called him "Abba" for the first time, he didn't have the slightest mood swing.

Instead, the whole person froze in place.

For a long time, I was stunned and didn't say a word.
