Spring River Chasing the Moon

Xiaomei, whose full name is Luo Luo, was born in the same year as Luo Youyou.

Xiaomei is the name given to Luo Luo by his parents. Originally, the name to be reported in the household registration book was Luo Xiaomei, but Xiaomei's grandmother thought the name was too casual and too ordinary, so she named him Luo Luo instead.

Grandma Luo Luo had not read much, but the line "The spring scenery in Luoyang city is beautiful" was one of the few lines of poetry she had heard others mention and which she remembered.

Later, when Luo Luo grew up, he disliked the nickname "Xiaomei" even more because his parents abandoned him.

From then on, Luo Youyou changed his way of addressing her and no longer called her "Xiaomei".

In her previous life, Luo Luo was a friend of Luo Youyou who had grown up together. Although Luo Luo was one month younger than her, in her previous life, she was the one who took care of her like an older sister.

Whenever Luo Youyou was in trouble, Luo Luo would always stand by her, help her, and take care of her. The two of them supported each other, and Luo Luo always took on the responsibility of an older sister and treated her like her own sister.

So, she is Luo Youyou's only and best friend.

But in fact, Luo Luo lives a life even harder than hers.

If Luo Youyou remembered correctly, her grandmother died of illness when she was in Luoluo Middle School. Her parents had been divorced for almost a year at that time and each had a new family. No one wanted to have another burden, so they ignored her.

Luo Luo never complained about her fate, but started to live an independent life. However, at such a young age, she completely lost the energy and ambition she should have, and her personality became more and more stable. Later, the girl who was less than 30 years old was always pointed at by others, who said she was lifeless, and no one wanted to make friends with her.

In the previous life, only Luo Youyou kept in touch with Luo Luo. During the time when Luo Youyou became a soul after his death, he also went to see Luo Luo once.

Her Luo Luo seemed to have become more silent and had learned to drink. At that time, Luo Youyou had no way to comfort her. She could only talk to herself, looking at her drunken self, and telling her to take good care of herself, to be happy, and to live a long life.

I don’t know what happened to Luo Luo in his previous life.

……

When she entered the yard, Luo Youyou saw five-year-old Luo Luo and her grandmother busy picking vegetables.

Seeing Luo Youyou, she excitedly put down the green onion in her hand, staggered towards her, and shouted: "Youyou, you are finally here, why didn't you come to see me these two days?"

At this time, Luo Luo had not experienced those painful things yet. Luo Youyou couldn't help but sigh that things in the world are impermanent. She looked at the girl running towards her with a complicated expression. After so long, everyone had forgotten that Luo Luo was once a girl who loved to jump and make noise.

Luo Youyou looked at Luo Luo now and made up his mind: "In this life, whether it's my family or my friends, I must protect them well."

"Luo Luo, I will be your sister in this life and take good care of you."

"I've been at my grandpa's house recently, so I didn't come."

Luo Youyou had been hiding in her room for two days before her rebirth, recalling her past life. She didn't dare go out, fearing that all this was just a dream and that others would see through her.

Of course she couldn't tell Luo Luo, so she could only make up an excuse. After all, she did come back from her grandfather's house yesterday, and Xiaomei's grandmother also saw it.

Luo Luo trotted over to her, her little face flushed. She held her hand and kept talking. "Come on, Youyou, guess what we're having for lunch. Hehe, you can't guess, right? Grandma said she'll make meat buns for us today."

Luo Youyou walked to her grandmother holding her hand. She smiled sweetly and said to Luo Luo's grandmother, "Grandma, thank you for your help."

"Oh, what's the trouble? Grandma's favorite thing is to make delicious food for you. As long as you are fat and plump, grandma will be happy." Grandma Luo Luo looked at Luo Youyou kindly, and she became more and more satisfied.

The little girl is very quiet and sensible. It is hard to spoil a child like her enough, but Yang Qian from next door doesn't even feel sorry for her own granddaughter.

Luo Youyou looked at Grandma Luo Luo's loving eyes, and her heart was warm. Compared with that selfish and shameless "own grandma", the neighbor's sincerity was not as good.

Thinking of this, Luo Youyou also squatted down and said, "Grandma, let me help you too."

In this way, in the yard at noon, the old lady took her two children to wash vegetables and knead dough, working and playing at the same time, and her laughter spread throughout the neighborhood.

It was almost twelve o'clock, and a pot of steaming meat buns was ready. Grandma Luo Luo quickly called the two little ones to wash their hands and get ready to eat.

Luo Luo couldn't wait any longer. She set the table as quickly as possible and waited anxiously for her grandma.

Luo Youyou washed her hands and sat on a small stool, waiting quietly.

At noon, not only were there meat buns, but Grandma Luo Luo also made vegetable porridge for the two of them and fried an egg for each of them. After the meal, both of their bellies were full.

After helping Luo Luo's grandmother wash the dishes, Luo Luo took Luo Youyou to his little room and showed her the new toys her parents had sent back.

Although the five-year-old Luo Youyou came to this room to play almost every day, for the reborn Luo Youyou, it has been a long time since he came to this room.

Although the room is not big, it is very cozy. The 1.5-meter-tall bed is covered with pink floral sheets, and even the pillowcases are made of tender pink fabric bought by Luo Luo's grandmother and sewn by hand.

There is also a desk next to the windowsill, which is covered with Luo Luo's favorite little figure paintings. As the breeze blows, the white curtains flutter slowly. Luo Luo was once a little princess held in the hands of the whole family.

"Yes, look, this is something my parents asked someone to bring back. Let's play with it together."

Looking at Luo Luo's happy face, Luo Youyou couldn't tell her that in a few years, her parents would divorce because of business failure and quarrels all day long, and they would each start a new family and would not want to take her with them.

"It would be great if Luo Luo could take Grandma to South City as well. Maybe in South City, if Grandma gets sick in the future, there will be better treatment options."

"As for Luo Luo's parents, the best outcome would be to prevent them from getting divorced, and Luo Luo would not be abandoned. If all else fails, as long as I have the ability to bring Luo Luo and her grandmother to Nancheng, even if Luo Luo's parents remarry and don't want her, Luo Luo won't have to bear it alone with me around." Luo Youyou silently planned in her heart.

But she hasn't figured out a good way to plan it yet.

"Luo Luo, have you ever thought about what you want to do when you grow up?" Luo Youyou asked softly.

"Grow up? But growing up is a long way away from us. However, I want to grow up quickly and then work hard to make money so that grandma and mom and dad don't have to work so hard." Luo Luo looked up and began to imagine the future seriously.

"I hope I can make a lot of money in the future, buy a big house, and bring my grandma, parents and I to live with me."

"We can buy a lot of nice clothes and fun toys. I'll buy you whatever you want..."

Luo Youyou listened to her innocent voice, thought about it and decided to give up.

It is up to him to plan for the future. After all, Luo Luo is just a five-year-old child.

After spending the entire afternoon playing with Luo Luo, Luo Youyou began to admire the boundless energy of children. She couldn't help but wonder if she had been like this as a child, able to play endlessly. Now that she had the mindset of an adult, she no longer had the energy or desire to play.

After saying goodbye to Luo Luo and her grandmother, Luo Youyou returned to her home and fell asleep on her small bed.
