Chapter 239
Woven Second Threads Novel Chapter 239
Even though Marinda Qingping returned home with Eli, he was still holding back his anger.
She asked Eli to take a hot bath first, while she went into the kitchen to make ginger soup for him.
At that time, Yun Qi was still here, and Justin Gu and his second sister didn't know what happened.
"You two have a chat, and I'll go see her." Justin Gu entered the kitchen and saw her making ginger soup, "What's wrong? It's cold outside?"
Marinda Qingping shook his head, "It's okay, I'll make some ginger soup to prevent the child."
She planned to tell Justin Gu later that Yun Qi was still here, and she didn't want outsiders to know what happened to Eli today.
Yes, Yun Qi is an outsider in her eyes, not to mention that he is still pursuing a relationship with his second sister. Even if it is possible in the future, Eli's childhood pain is still his personal privacy.
"Is everything okay?" Justin Gu didn't think so.
"Well, you can go out. I'll be ready in a moment." Marinda Qingping neatly broke up the whole piece of ginger and threw it into the pot.
After Justin Gu left the kitchen, he wanted to ask Eli, but Eli was still taking a shower.
Okay, let’s talk later.
After Marinda Qingping made the ginger soup, Eli had already taken a bath and was sitting with the three of them, Justin Gu, with his face flushed, not sure if it was from the hot water or something.
Marinda Qingping touched his forehead. It didn't feel hot yet, so she quickly gave him the ginger soup and drank it while watching him.
"Just go and take a nap, holding the quilt against the cold." Marinda Qingping was really worried, having walked a long way in such thin clothes in the cold wind.
Eli behaved very obediently, letting Marinda Qingping lead him back to the room, and obediently let Marinda Qingping tuck him into the quilt.
His schoolbag is still on the table, next to it, there is a framed photo of his father, which is placed upside down.
Marinda Qingping wiped her hands, solemnly picked up the photo, took a stool and hung it on the wall, and hung it carefully and straightly.
Once upon a time, when he was in Gujiacun, Eli's father's photo hung in his house.
When he came to the capital, he brought his father's photos with him. When he was decorating the house on the first day after moving in, Marinda Qingping asked Eli whether the photos should be hung inside or outside his room. Eli chose to hang them in his room. inside.
Therefore, this photo was nailed by Justin Gu and hung up by Marinda Qingping himself.
This was the case both times I moved.
I originally thought it was an ordinary little thing, but I didn't expect that there would be such an earth-shattering movement today.
Eli lay on the bed, watching her every move, his eyes gradually turned red.
When Marinda Qingping got off the stool, she turned back and saw tears shining in his eyes.
She was shocked and quickly sat next to him and gently wiped the corners of his eyes, "Eli, don't be sad. There will be no next time. No one will come to you again."
The tears in Eli's eyes were not for this reason.
He remained motionless, the skin at the corner of his eyes pressed against her warm fingers, and he spoke with choked sobs, "Mom, aren't you afraid?"
Marinda Qingping was stunned and instantly understood what this "fear" meant.
She lightly tapped the corners of his eyes with her fingers, "How could I be afraid? Your dad loves you, I love you too, and your dad Gu loves you. How could someone with love in his heart be so scared?" Are you afraid?"
People in this era rarely talk about the word love. After hearing this, Eli was stunned, but there were more tears in his eyes. They were piled up and were about to overflow.
"Eli, we are all a family. If you call us mom and dad, then your dad is our biological brother. Of course the family will not be afraid." Her fingers were covered with warm tears, and she felt that her heart was full of tears. Got wet.
She has known Eli for two lifetimes. When has she ever seen this child cry...
"But..." Eli sobbed, "She is still my biological mother, she...she, and they are all...all afraid... Why are they... afraid? My dad... is gone, and he won't... come to beat them..."
Marinda Qingping really hates the Wen family!
He didn't want to leave any more room for the Wen family, so he just said gently and honestly, "Eli, only those who have evil intentions will be afraid of the dead. Therefore, you must be honest and aboveboard in your life, and you must not be a villain."
Eli was stunned for a moment, seemed to understand, and nodded, but in an instant, he suddenly threw himself into her arms, and his tears wet her clothes.
"Eli..." She wanted to pick him up and comfort him.
But he hugged her tightly and wouldn't let go. He only choked with sobs and called her over and over again, "Mom, mom..."
Marinda Qingping then understood that he no longer needed comfort.
Perhaps, he just needs a hug, a quiet hug, someone who can respond to him when he calls "Mom"
