Ning Jiang ordered the dishes and said to Luo Hanshang, "After lunch, let the aunties rest. I've contracted the kitchen this afternoon."
"Whatever, my only request is to have something to eat."
In the afternoon, Ning Jiang was so busy that she didn't know what to do. She cooked some soup while wrapping some dumplings.
After wrapping the dumplings, she also stir-fried a few dishes.
By the time Rolo finished his homework and her aunt brought her over, she had already finished cooking in the kitchen.
In order to avoid too much embarrassment for Ning Jiang, Luo Hanshang had refused the drinks with his buddies and stayed home to eat with them.
The moment Luo Yuan arrived, Ning Jiang ran out.
She looked at him with a radiant smile, "Rolo, you must be hungry. Give me ten minutes, and we can start eating."
"Alright." Rolo smiled at her shyly.
Ning Jiang ran back to the kitchen. Luo Luo sat in the living room next to Luo Hanshang.
Luo Hanshang rubbed her hair and said, "My Rolo has grown up and knows how to resolve conflicts."
Luo Luo laughed, "I've grown up anyway."
"Since you gave my wife face, tell me. This summer, where do you want to play? Second Uncle has approved."
"Anywhere?"
Luo Hanshang nodded: "Of course, as long as it's not a dangerous place."
"Then I'll think about it. When I think about it, I'll tell you."
"Alright."
"Also, after di er, can you leave for a little while? I have something to say to Second Aunt."
Luo Hanshang was speechless. Did he get in the way again?
"Can't you tell me first?"
"Of course not, this is our woman's secret."
Luo Hanshang couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh yeah, Second Uncle, you really haven't divorced Second Aunt, right?"
"Do you need Second Uncle to give you your marriage certificate? Take it to the Civil Affairs Bureau to check if it's real or fake?"
"I'm not going, I believe Second Uncle."
Ning Jiang came out."Two Young Masters and Young Miss of Luo Family, come over for di er."
They got up together and went to the table.
Rolo looked happier than last night.
"Wow, I've missed Second Aunt's dumplings for a long time."
Ning Jiang looked at her, moved by Rolo's words.
After she set up the tableware, the three of them had a very warm di er.
After di er, Luo Hanshang said to Ning Jiang, "I'm going out for a while. I have something to take care of. You can send Lo back to Grandma's later."
"Got it, go ahead."
After Luo Hanshang left, Ning Jiang asked Luo Luo if she would like some fruits, so she went to prepare them.
Rolo took Ning Jiang's hand, "Second Aunt, I want to bring you somewhere."
"Now?"
"Yes, it's not far, right inside the Luo Garden."
Ning Jiang stood up and allowed Luo Luo to pull her. After the two of them exited the Hanyi House, they passed through the pavilion in the front yard and arrived at the Blue Wave Hall.
Lolo pulls her to a seat.
She took out a children's book from her schoolbag.
Ning Jiang looked at the book that had turned yellow and pursed her lips."We didn't finish reading this book back then."
"After Second Aunt left, I never flipped through this book again. At that time, there were many words that I didn't recognize, so the words on the painting were read to me by Second Aunt. Now, I want to read them to Second Aunt."
Ning Jiang looked at her with eyes full of love.
Luo Luo Luo smiled, flipping to the page they saw five years ago.
Time seemed to have returned to the past. Rolo pointed at the words on it and began to read.
Ning Jiang's eyes turned red as she looked at Rolo.
Rolo read it for a while and then cried.
Ning Jiang took her in her arms from the side.
Rolo also held the book, hugging Ning Jiang's waist tightly and crying in her arms.
"You promised me. You said that in the future, you would love me like your mother, but you still ran away. I missed you a lot every day, so I wanted to sleep with you on a thundery night. I think you can stay with me when I'm sick. I want you to hold a parents' meeting for me and tell the teachers that you are my second aunt, just like my mother. I want you to go golfing and swimming with me, and I also want you to take me to a cram class like other people's mothers?? "
Ning Jiang closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face."I'm sorry, Rolo."
"Great Grandma said you were my mother from then on, but you left me. I'm very sad, I thought I was being naughty, you don't like me anymore, you don't want me anymore."
Ning Jiang shook her head."No, Second Aunt didn't leave you, and she really did love you. But then, Second Aunt also had her own difficulties. Second Aunt really left because I had no choice."
Rolo looked up at her, sobbing, "Then can you promise me you won't leave again? I don't want the mother like Second Aunt to disappear without a sound like last time, I want you to stay by my side."
Ning Jiang looked at Rolo. What should she do?
Promise Rolo?
What if she went back on her word? Wasn't that going to hurt her heart again?
Luo Yuan said anxiously, "Second Aunt, why aren't you talking?"
"Luo Luo Luo, about the matter between you and Second Uncle, we can't explain it clearly, we??"
"Aren't you husband and wife? You are not like my father and mother. You are all alive, so why can't you explain it clearly? "
How could she talk about marriage and love with a child who was not even thirteen years old?
She thought for a moment, then lowered her head and said to Luo Luo Luo, "Second aunt can promise you, if I want to leave again one day, I will definitely tell you. And no matter what relationship I have with you, Second Uncle, my love will never change again. I'll be your mother from now on, okay? "
Luo Luo Luo was a little worried: "Second aunt, will you still be separated from me, Second Uncle?"
Ning Jiang said, "Rolo, you are still young and don't know what love is. Second Uncle already has someone he likes."
"The person I, Second Uncle, like is you."
Ning Jiang exhaled."Love is different from love. With love, you can maintain a good marriage."
"The person I love is you, " Rolo nodded seriously, "Second Aunt, I know what love is. There are a lot of people in my school who confessed to me, but I don't want to be with them at all, so I know that when I don't like being with someone, it's not love at all. However, I, Second Uncle, only want to be together with you.
Ning Jiang smiled speechlessly. This little girl??
"Second Aunt, don't laugh, I'm speaking the truth." Luo Yuan came out of Ning Jiang's arms with a serious expression.
"Last time, I was drunk. When he was sent back by Muzhi, I overheard the two of them talking. Second Uncle really loves you, I didn't lie to you."
Ning Jiang looked at Rolo and asked a moment later, "What did they say?"
