I almost touched the moon

Cheng Che patted her back gently and said softly, "Cry, cry, I'm here, I'm with my wife."

"My grandma is really too much." Wen Song cried and said, "She feels sorry for this and pity that, can she not feel sorry for her own daughter? When my mother got divorced, she really hoped that my grandma could comfort her.

But do you know what my grandmother said to her? My grandmother said, 'If you hadn't gone to Hong Kong, how could Lingyuan do such a thing? You don't care about your husband, who can you blame? Just quarrel for two days, why get a divorce? It's making a fuss.'"

Cheng Che was also very shocked after hearing this. He could not imagine that a mother would say such words when her daughter was betrayed in marriage.

He patted Wen Song's back gently and said, "It's okay. Mom still has you. You love her very much. You are the best daughter in the world. Honey, if you miss mom, we won't go to Fussen. Let's go back to Zurich to see her, okay?"

Wen Song was still crying, hugging him and saying, "I'm not good at all. I was so young when she got divorced. I couldn't help her at all and only hurt her. Now I'm grown up, I can understand her, and I want to protect her, but she doesn't need it anymore."

"Little fool, you were only three years old at that time, what could you do to help her?" Cheng Che hugged her and coaxed her, "Baby, you really did a great job. Mom also told me that you are her pride. She is very grateful to you for all these years. No matter what she does, you have always supported her."

Seeing Wen Song still crying, Cheng Che sighed and said, "Okay, then I can only tell you a secret of mine..."

"What?" Wen Song raised his head from his arms with tears on his face and asked suspiciously, "Why are you hiding something from me?"

"This is the only one." Cheng Che sighed and said, "Because of this incident, I have always felt very guilty and dared not tell anyone. I also did not dare to tell you, because I was afraid that if I told you, you would think I was selfish..."

Cheng Che was silent for a while, then slowly spoke: "When I was over five years old, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. At that time, my grandparents were very angry and sad. I still remember the first time my grandpa lost his temper, he was really angry with my dad. Later, my grandmother quit her job and took care of my mother every day. They also took out all their savings, persuaded my mother to divorce, and prepared to take her to immigrate to the United States for treatment."

Without Cheng Che saying anything, Wen Song already knew the ending. Xie Huiyin did not divorce, nor did she go to the United States.

Cheng Che will never forget that his mother looked at him, who was less than six years old at that time, and cried to his grandmother, "How can I go to the United States? What will happen to Cheng Che if I leave? Just stay here, you can be cured."

Grandma said to her, "Let's take Ache with us."

"My grandmother asked me if I wanted to go to the United States with my grandparents and mother. She said my mother was going there for medical treatment. But I was really hateful and selfish. I said, 'I don't want to go to the United States. I can't bear to leave my grandparents and father.' So my mother stayed and didn't divorce."

When he said this, Cheng Che's eyes sparkled with tears. This was the deepest pain in his heart. Because it was too deep and too painful, even after so many years, he would still blame himself when he woke up in the middle of the night. Therefore, he didn't tell anyone, not even Wen Song.

Cheng Che hugged Wen Song tightly and said, "For so many years I have been thinking, if I had been more sensible at that time and didn't say those words, would Mom have gone to the United States and she wouldn't have died. Song Song, you see, I was really selfish and didn't consider her at all. But you were very good. You were so young at that time, but you still supported Mom to go to Switzerland."

"No, you are not selfish, you are not selfish at all." Wen Song finally understood where his almost flattering selflessness came from. He was really afraid that if he didn't do this, he would be left with greater regrets.

"You were so young at that time, you didn't know anything. Ah Che, Mom's death is not your fault, please stop blaming yourself, okay?" Wen Song gently wiped away the tears from his eyes and kissed his eyes, "You are the best and kindest person in the world. Mom will not blame you, and grandpa and grandma will not blame you either."

"And..." Wen Song smiled bitterly, "When my mother went abroad, I hugged her at the airport and cried my heart out. I cried and yelled, and even rolled on the ground, asking her not to leave. The airport security police came because of my crying, but she still left.

Later, I called her many times, and told her to come back soon and not stay in Switzerland. I said I couldn't live without her. So, Ah Che, these are their own choices, and have nothing to do with us. Don't blame yourself anymore, don't doubt yourself, you are not selfish, not at all. "

Cheng Che nodded and said, "Then let's not blame ourselves, okay? Honey, should we go back to Zurich? Go and stay with mom. She should need you very much."

Wen Song nodded and said to Cheng Che, "I'll call her first."

After three calls, Wen Yiheng finally answered and said impatiently, "I know your grandma is annoying, just block her. Don't come to me or ask me. She can't find me if she has any problems because I have blocked her."

"No..." Wen Song heard her long string of words and suddenly felt that he seemed to be overly sentimental. He tentatively called out, "Mom, are you home?"

"Not here." Wen Yiheng yawned and said, "Elliott and I are in Tanzania watching the great animal migration. Ilia, I'm telling you not to call me anymore and not to disturb my date, okay? If you're bored, you can go watch the great animal migration with Cheng Che, or watch the whale migration. Australia is very suitable for whale watching this season. Go and have fun by yourself and don't bother me. Bye."

After saying that, he immediately hung up the phone without waiting for Wen Song to say anything else.

Wen Song burst into laughter and said to Cheng Che, "It seems that I was just being sentimental."

"It seems so." Cheng Che also half-jokingly said, "So, does my wife want to go to Australia to see whales?"

"No." Wen Song shook his head and refused, "I'm not retired yet, so I don't have as much free time as her. Next month is final month, I'm super busy, there are so many things to do."

"Then let's go to Fussen." Cheng Che picked up Cece from the back seat, put her in Wen Song's arms and said, "Mom was in a bad mood just now and she was crying. You comfort her and go and kiss her."

Cece actually came close to Wen Song and sniffed her, then rubbed her face. Wen Song immediately said in surprise, "Wow, Cece kissed me."

He picked up Cece and rubbed her and said, "You are mummy's treasure, mummy's vitamin."

(You are mom’s treasure, mom’s vitamin.)

Cheng Che also smiled and took out a tissue to wipe the cat hair off her face: "Finally you stopped crying. Okay, be happy. Let's have a barbecue in the garden tonight, okay? And then tomorrow we'll take Cece to Neuschwanstein Castle?"

"Just watch it at home." Wen Song said, "It's timid. There are too many people there. It will be scared."

Cheng Che got back on the road and soon passed a green area. On the lush grass, there were a few sheep grazing leisurely, and some unknown wild flowers were blooming on both sides of the road.

Next is Bannwaldsee. The windless lake is unusually calm, perfectly reflecting the image of the mountain ridges on the opposite bank. The sunlight shines on the lake, covering it with a layer of brilliance like a golden veil, and the sparkling waves are flashing with intoxicating light.

Wen Song suddenly smiled. They all had the most secret pain hidden deep in their hearts. But so what? On this cloudless early summer afternoon, they were on their way to Fussen together. The beautiful scenery of Fussen would eventually heal the pain in their hearts.
