Chapter 48

On the day of Yan Suxin's Day, it rained very well. The rain in winter was pitifully small, but today it seemed that it was not stingy at all, drizzling all the time.

It has cooled down recently, and it has become even colder after the rain. Gu Jiusi felt the pain in his right hand before he got up, and he didn't feel better after spraying the medicine. Until Chen Jingkang asked her to go out with awkward look on his face.

Gu Jiusi was also a little embarrassed when she saw Chen Jingkang again, and she looked like a formal tone, "I have already told Mr. Mu about Yao Yingjia, and he also agreed. Yao Yingjia can stay."

After saying that, he left the room, leaving Chen Jingkang, who looked reluctant to speak but stopped.

Although Gu Jiusi is indifferent, she is still easy to get along most of the time. Unlike Chen Mubai, Chen Mubai would rather let him down the world, and the world is not to let him down, so he always takes the initiative to hurt others to avoid being injured. Gu Jiusi has his own bottom line, and as long as he does not touch her bottom line, she is generally easy to talk to.

It’s not that Chen Jingkang offended Gu Jiusi, but that the thoughts she had been hiding were suddenly put on the table, and she couldn’t accept them for a while. If it were someone else, she wouldn’t care, but she just looked up and saw Chen Jingkang. She felt that she was moving in front of Chen Jingkang every day, like a joke that could move.

Fortunately, this day of each year is covered with a low pressure because of this special meaning, so no one noticed the abnormality between the two. As soon as the sky was dawn, Chen Mubai and his group had already set off.

Chen Mubai has a high requirement for quality of life, and the first thing he has to do is sleep. When he doesn't sleep enough, he will have a very bad temper. Even if he wakes up, he will get up. To put it bluntly, it is pretentious. But today he woke up very early and there is no sign of getting up. He has always been quiet and can't see any emotions.

Yan Suxin was buried in a public cemetery on a mountain. When Chen Mubai brought her ashes into the door, Chen Muyun's mother was still there, so she temporarily found the place to bury her first. Later, Chen Muyun's mother was gone, and Chen Mingmo mentioned moving to the Chen family cemetery several times, but Chen Mubai did not agree.

His original words were, "My mother never entered the Chen family's door before her death, and she would not know even more after her death."

Chen Mingmo is rare and does not force him.

Maybe it was too early, and there was no one else in the entire cemetery except them. The management fee of the cemetery was very high, so the service was also very considerable. There was no trace of weeds or dust in front of the tombstone, and the tombstone was clean, and even the photos on it were brand new as if they were posted yesterday.

There was no word Chen on the tombstone from beginning to end. Even Chen Mubai's name was given the surname and only the word Mubai was engraved. It seemed that the people who had been buried here wanted to completely separate themselves from the Chen family. This was the case during their lifetime and after their death.

Chen Mubai stood in front of the tombstone with an umbrella, dressed in black, covered in chills, and even the air around him was solemn and desolate. Chen Mubai just stood like this every year and looked at the tombstone, saying nothing, doing nothing, and not seeing sadness on his face. He could stand all day at one stop.

Gu Jiusi and Chen Jingkang arranged flowers, fruits and pastries, and stepped aside to stand with him.

Later, there were other gravewalkers in the cemetery, mixed with the sound of rain, and low sobs came from time to time.

Gu Jiusi turned his head and looked at the source of the voice, then turned around and looked at Chen Mubai. She had never understood why Chen Mubai did not show any sadness, but now she suddenly felt that he was really sad. He would not cry when he was really sad, and he didn't even have the strength to cry. Perhaps he was immersed in the sad world and forgot to cry.

Chen Mubai and her mother lived together for only a few short years, but Gu Jiusi could see that Chen Mubai and her mother had a deep relationship. Even after so many years, he still seemed to be unable to let go. This means how difficult it was for him to accept when something happened to her mother.

Gu Jiusi looked up at the photo on the tombstone, and a complex feeling gradually surged in his heart.

The woman in the photo is very young, with a girl's joy between her eyebrows.

The Yan Suxin she saw back then did not look like in the photo. At that time, Yan Suxin was already a mother, and was much gentler and more restrained than in the photo.

Later, the rain became heavier and heavier. Chen Fang couldn't stand it anymore and went up to persuade him, "Young master, take shelter from the rain. If you do this, your wife will not be at ease."

I don’t know if Chen Fang is too cold or uncomfortable, but his voice trembled when he spoke.

Chen Mubai nodded and spoke hoarsely for a while, "You go and avoid it, don't worry about me, I want to wait alone with my mother."

Chen Fang winked at Gu Jiusi and Chen Jingkang, and no one of the three left without saying anything.

As soon as the three of them stepped into the lounge, Gu Jiusi's cell phone rang. She looked at the name on the screen and sighed, walked to the window to pick it up.

Shu Hua had no intention of greetings and asked straight to the point, "Sister Gu, why didn't Mr. Mu answer the phone?"

Gu Jiusi looked at the blurred figure standing alone in the rain curtain through the glass holding a black umbrella, and his voice also sank a little. "Today is the day of the mother of Mu. He is in a bad mood. If there is nothing urgent, I'd better find him another day."

Shu Hua seemed a little depressed, "Why didn't he look for me after the last time we met?"

Gu Jiusi didn't know how to answer this question. She didn't understand the matter between men and women, and she had no obligation to do anything intimate sister. She had completed the task assigned to her by Chen Mingmo, and she could not do anything else. Although Gu Jiusi put forward a lot of reasons to convince herself, she did not realize that all this was to cover up her inexplicable irritability and resistance.

Shu Hua didn't wait for her reply and became more and more reluctant, "Why should I take the initiative to look for him, or wait for him to come to me? Isn't it good for a girl to be too proactive?"

Gu Jiusi frowned slightly and replied lukewarmly, "I don't know."

I don’t know if Gu Jiusi was restrained or Shu Hua’s mind was not on this, but she didn’t realize Gu Jiusi’s impatientness at all. She muttered to herself for a long time and asked again, “You said just now that he was in a bad mood, so should I go over and accompany him?”

He doesn't need anyone to accompany him. People are a contradiction. Sometimes they are afraid of loneliness, so they want others to accompany him. Sometimes they want to stay quiet and stay quietly by themselves.

This was Gu Jiusi's first reaction, but she didn't say it, but just expressed the meaning very tactfully, "Maybe it is not convenient. Miss Shu, if there is nothing else, I'll die first, goodbye."

Shu Hua's shouts came from his ears, but Gu Jiusi had already cut off the call.

After all, she is not a patient person. No matter how well she disguises, she will have times to break her skills.

After the heavy rain washed away, it finally cleared up. In addition to the sun, Shu Hua also appeared.

Gu Jiusi stood not far away and looked at Chen Mubai. He stood in the backlight, the golden light outlined the lines of his side face, half of his face hidden in the shadow, and no expression was seen. Even if the sunlight is bright, it seems that it cannot shine into his heart.

She was still in a daze and felt that her shoulder was being patted by someone. She was startled and turned around immediately, and then saw Shu Hua's face.

The face was no longer the heartless smile that had been before, but with a seemingly unscrupulous provocation, "I called Uncle Chen and Uncle Chen said I would come and see him."

Gu Jiusi understood the meaning of Shu Hua. Since it was Chen Mingmo's meaning, of course she would not say anything, but just said "um".

Gu Jiusi's reaction obviously did not meet Shu Hua's psychological expectations, and her face changed instantly, and Gu Jiusi just pretended that she didn't see it.

Gu Jiusi has never been a servile person. Her boss is the Chen family, not the Shu family. Even if the Chen family wants to marry the Shu family, she doesn’t need to look at Shu Hua’s expression. If you want her to see, you can marry in first and become a member of the Chen family, she will do what she should do, but don’t blame her for not cooperating non-violently for the moment.

Chen Fang and Chen Jingkang realized that the atmosphere here was a little wrong. Chen Jingkang ran over almost the next second, stood in front of Gu Jiusi, and looked at Shu Hua hostilely, "Is there anything wrong with Miss Shu?"

To be honest, Gu Jiusi was a little moved. Even though she and Chen Jingkang were a little unhappy, Chen Jingkang still ran over to protect her as soon as possible, for fear that she would be bullied.

Chen Mubai also noticed the movement here and shouted in a voice, "Gu Jiusi!"

Gu Jiusi didn't want to have a conflict with Shu Hua, so she pulled Chen Jingkang's sleeve and told him not to be impulsive, and then walked towards Chen Mubai.

Shu Hua saw that Chen Mubai only called Gu Jiusi, but did not call her, and was a little dissatisfied, but also walked over with a smile, put the flowers in his hand in front of the tombstone, and spoke gently, "I heard that today is your mother's day of worship, so I came here to worship."

Chen Mubai glanced at Gu Jiusi with a meaningful look, and then replied politely and distantly, "Thank you."

When Gu Jiusi saw Chen Mubai looking at her, he knew that he had misunderstood again. He must have thought that Shu Hua was attracted by her, and he felt a little irritated for a moment.

Shu Hua looked at the photos on the tombstone and said, "Your mother is so beautiful, you look more like your mother."

Chen Mubai responded absent-mindedly.

After Shu Hua looked at Gu Jiusi, she suddenly asked Chen Mubai, "Uncle Chen has so many women in his life. Who do you think he loves the most?"

Gu Jiusi immediately frowned. This young lady of the Shu family is really spoiled. She is so incomprehensible. Can you ask such questions casually?

Sure enough, Chen Mubai's face changed and he didn't respond.

Shu Hua is a person who doesn’t know how to look at people’s faces, and then expressed his thoughts, “I think it must be Miss Dong’s family, because she is the wife whom Uncle Chen’s official matchmaker.”

Shu Hua said this to squeeze Gu Jiusi out of his way, trying to prove how legitimate he was. But it sounded like Gu Jiusi and Chen Mubai had another meaning.

As soon as Shu Hua said something, Chen Mubai and Gu Jiusi smiled disdainfully. The deep and dark water in it was, ordinary people could not imagine it. They all understood how ridiculous Shu Hua’s “favorite” was, it was just an exchange of interests, to see who could swallow whom.

Because Chen Mubai refused to respond, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and Gu Jiusi was unwilling to smooth things over, so she let Shu Hua embarrass her.

Gu Jiusi looks weak and bullied on the surface, but in fact she thinks she is not the Holy Mother who can bully others and repay kindness with kindness. In the Chen family over the years, anyone who provoked her without knowing the truth was all taken care of by her. The reason why she tolerated Shu Hua was that she felt that she was not bad-minded, but that she was just a child's character. After all, she was also from a big family. In addition to teaching her gambling skills, his father also taught her what kind of generosity and cultivation is.

But after this time, Shu Hua's hostility towards her was probably getting deeper and deeper.

Chen Fang is a personal genius. Seeing that the three of them had not spoken for a long time, they came over and reminded Chen Mubai in a hurry, "Young Master, it's almost time to leave, and there are still people waiting there."

Chen Mubai also cooperated, nodded, and said to Shu Hua, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Shu has been there, I have something to do, so I will say goodbye first."

Shu Hua reluctantly smirked, "Don't be so polite, just call me Shu Hua."

Chen Mubai smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and he didn't say it or say it was no, and he nodded and left without looking back.

In fact, no one was waiting for him, but they really should go down the mountain.

Yan Suxin’s hometown has the custom of putting river lanterns to mourn the deceased relatives, so every year today Chen Mubai will put river lanterns by the water.

When it was getting dark or not, the lotus-shaped lamps were filled with a hazy light due to the ignition of candlelight. The river lamps flowed down the river surface, and the river surface was lit by Chen Mubai himself and placed in the water. His eyebrows and eyes were filled with a different solemnity in the slightly red candlelight.

The more silent he was, the more heart-wrenching Gu Jiusi was. Chen Mubai was silent because he was not calm in his heart.

In fact, Chen Mubai would be depressed for a while at this time of year. In previous years, Gu Jiusi didn't think anything was wrong. But this year, she felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Chen Mubai like this.

Gu Jiusi hesitated for a long time, walked behind Chen Mubai, and called him softly, "Mu Young Master."

Chen Mubai held a river lantern in one hand and a lighter in the other. It seemed that he had just lit it and had not had time to put it in the water. He turned to look at her with calm eyes.

Chen Mubai is now cold and numb, and seems to have nothing to do with anything. Gu Jiusi, under his gaze, prepared a speech for a long time before he couldn't say a word. He was at a loss for a while before speaking, "I have never seen my mother before, and I don't even know what she looks like. You are happy, at least there are so many memories. So, don't be sad."

After waiting for so many years, someone finally told him, don’t be sad.

Chen Mubai looked at her quietly. Her face was a little nervous, uneasy, and a little... unbearable against the candlelight.
