On the day Su Qingyun was discharged from the hospital, the sky had just cleared after the snow, the trees on both sides of the road were covered with beautiful branches and leaves, and the sky was a clear blue.

Ruan Shaodong personally drove to the hospital to pick up Su Qingyun. The couple were silent along the way, and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing and dull.

Xiao Chutang sat in the back seat, breathing out the window and drawing on the window with his fingers, his heart full of joy.

Mom was finally discharged from the hospital.

Xiao Chutang drew a picture of a family of three on the car window, with smiles in their eyes and eyebrows.

When Su Qingyun saw the pattern on the car window, her heart ached and her eyes turned red instantly.

She turned her head and secretly wiped away her tears, adjusted her mood and forced a smile, "Tangtang's birthday is in a few days. What gift does Tangtang want?"

Little Chutang was still drawing on the window, and answered his mother's question in a crisp voice, "Mom, I want a cinnamon dog."

"Cinnamon dog?" Su Qingyun said softly, "Is a cinnamon dog... a pet dog? Mom has never heard of this breed of dog."

"No." Xiao Chutang shook his head. "It's a cartoon puppy. I want a ceramic cinnamon dog. I heard from Xueluo that there's a handicraft workshop on Chang'an Road. We can buy a colorless ceramic puppy and dye it ourselves."

Xiao Chutang turned to look at her mother, "Last week, Xueluo and Brother Zhengan went there to dye two very cute porcelain dolls."

Su Qingyun lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, "Okay, Tangtang, if you want to go, mom will go with you."

On Chutang’s twelfth birthday, it snowed heavily.

Ruan Chutang and her mother walked into the workshop hand in hand. Because they had ordered a colorless ceramic cinnamon dog in advance, they didn't have to wait when they arrived. The boss took out the finished cinnamon dog, and Chutang and her mother began to paint it.

It was the first time they worked together to complete a handmade product.

Chu Tang was very satisfied with the final result. Her cinnamon dog looked exactly like the one in the picture, and was even cuter.

The mother and daughter came out of the store and went to a nearby cake shop.

Su Qingyun held the cake in her left hand and held Chutang's hand with her right hand. They walked for a while in the falling snow. Suddenly, she stopped and turned to look at little Chutang with tenderness and affection.

"Tangtang, mommy loves you very much." Su Qingyun's voice was soft and was soon blown away by the north wind.

The tip of Xiao Chutang's nose was frozen red.

Her mother often told her that she loved her, and she didn't notice anything unusual. She replied in a crisp voice, "Mom, Tangtang loves you too."

Su Qingyun felt a lump in her throat and couldn't hold back her tears again.

Her Chutang is still so young, only twelve years old. She won’t be able to accompany her in the future. What should she do?

Afraid that Chu Tang would see her tears, Su Qingyun turned her head and continued walking forward.

Chutang was led by her mother through the crowded Chang'an Road Pedestrian Street to the open-air parking lot outside.

Ruan Shaodong's car was parked there.

From a distance, Xiao Chutang saw his father standing in the snow and smoking, with a sad and lonely look on his face.

She rarely saw this kind of expression, and was just wondering when Ruan Shaodong looked up and saw the mother and daughter. The sadness on his face disappeared in an instant, and he returned to his usual appearance.

Chu Tang thought it was just her illusion.

Ruan Shaodong put out his cigarette and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm back."

Su Qingyun said "hmm" softly.

That night, Ruan Shaodong was the one who cooked the dishes.

The three of them were happily gathered around the dining table. Little Chutang wore a crown, made a wish, and blew out the candles.

The accident happened while eating the cake.

Su Qingyun was fed a piece of cake and suddenly began to vomit blood in large mouthfuls.

Ruan Chutang was so frightened that the cake in her hand fell to the ground and got on her new leather shoes.

Ruan Shaodong hurriedly picked up Su Qingyun, his voice choked with sobs, "Qingyun, Qingyun, don't scare me, I'll take you to the hospital right away."

The nanny called "120" in a panic, but Chu Tang stood aside with a dull look in his eyes, his mind blank.

Why did this happen? She was fine just now, why did my mother suddenly vomit blood?

Didn’t the doctor say you can be discharged from the hospital?

Isn't mom recovered?

The ambulance arrived quickly.

Medical staff carried Su Qingyun into the car.

Before leaving, Chutang saw her mother looking at her with tears in her eyes, opening her mouth with difficulty, as if she wanted to say something to her.

Mom was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. Her lips moved, and Chu Tang understood her lip movements.

She was saying "I'm sorry."

In an instant, Chu Tang burst into tears. She ran out like crazy and plunged into the wind and snow.

"Mom, Mom, don't go..."

The ambulance started immediately and drove away quickly without waiting for Chu Tang.

Ruan Chutang ran after the ambulance for a while, and only stopped when the white ambulance carrying her mother disappeared from her sight.

That night, Su Qingyun passed away.

Ruan Shaodong stayed with her all night and cried uncontrollably.

Ruan Chutang didn't know all this.

She didn't catch up with the ambulance and fell in the snow. The nanny who was worried about her came out and took her back.

That night, Chutang developed a high fever and kept calling "Mom" in his dream, crying intermittently all night long.

When she woke up the next day, she heard that her mother had passed away.

Chu Tang didn't dare go to the hospital to see her mother for the last time. She was afraid of seeing the heartless corpse.

She had been deceiving herself during that time, thinking that as long as she had not seen her mother's body with her own eyes, her mother was still alive and she had just gone on a long journey to a faraway place.

In Chutang's heart, that gentle, smiling, and bright woman like spring will live forever.

After Su Qingyun left, Ruan Chutang held the porcelain doll all day and all night without eating or drinking. He slept when he was tired and shed silent tears when he woke up.

Ruan Shaodong seemed to have aged ten years overnight. The light in his eyes had faded, his hair had turned a lot grayer, and he no longer had the energy to take care of his daughter.

Later, Ruan Shaodong was even diagnosed with depression.

Ruan Chutang once thought that Ruan Shaodong would never marry again in his life. After all, he loved his mother so much, how could he have room for another woman in his heart?

But two years later, Ruan Shaodong married his mother's former best friend.

She made a big fuss at the time and moved to the school dormitory that same day. Even when she went home during the winter and summer vacations, she stayed alone in the room and didn't talk to them.

After two years of college, her relationship with Ruan Shaodong finally eased, but as soon as she graduated, Ruan Shaodong asked her to marry into the Jiang family, which made the already fragile relationship between father and daughter even worse.

Ruan Shaodong was probably really angry. In the past, he always agreed to Chu Tang's requests, but he was determined not to back down on the matter of marriage, and even blocked Chu Tang's card to force her to go home.

For Ruan Chutang, the marriage was just a fuse, the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The most fundamental reason why she ran away from home was that Ruan Shaodong remarried.

He betrayed his mother.

Chu Tang also felt that Ruan Shaodong wanted to drive her out of the family by asking her to arrange a marriage as soon as she graduated from university. As the saying goes, a daughter who is married off is like spilled water, and the Ruan family could no longer accommodate her.

So she ran away in anger, and she was gone for three years.

She always carries this porcelain doll with her.

This is her spiritual sustenance, the last gift her mother left her, and her most precious thing.

But now, it's broken.

Chu Tang's heart also broke.

……

Chu Tang cried enough and started to think of ways to save the situation.

If we can find a top restorer, maybe it can be saved.

She took a photo of the fragments and posted it on her Moments.

【Looking for a top restorer. 】

Chutang Jiangcheng has a wide network of contacts. Some of his relatives are important figures, and his best friends are also rich daughters and young masters. It shouldn't be difficult to find a restorer.

Just a few minutes after sending it out, Jiang Shixu called.

Ruan Chutang thought he was going to recommend a restorer to her, so she immediately picked up the phone.

Jiang Shixu's voice was filled with anxiety and worry, "Tangtang, are you hurt?"

Ruan Chutang was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized that the blood on the ceramic fragments had not been cleaned up yet.

"No, it's not my blood."

Jiang Shixu asked again, "What happened? How did the ceramic doll Aunt Su gave you break?"

Ruan Chutang was silent.

She didn't know where to begin.

What surprised her even more was that Jiang Shixu knew it was the porcelain doll her mother had given her just by looking at the fragments.

A moment later, the man's voice was filled with unquestionable decisiveness, "I'm going to the airport now. Wait for me. I'll come to Haicheng to see you."
