Chapter 37 Do you want to go back to Yunxi Village?
Si Ran had been filming in the crew for a few days and everything was calm. She was always happy every time she went home. Yuan Luo thought that she might have been too sensitive at the time. In addition, the people sent to take care of Si Ran did not find anything wrong, so Yuan Luo forgot about the matter for the time being.
After Si Ran went to the crew, Yuan Luo became very quiet at home. Before, they were playing and fighting together, but now that Si Ran is not at home, Yuan Luo stays in her room all day studying, and rarely even leaves the room except to eat.
In fact, it was mainly because winter was too cold and Yuanluo was too lazy to go out. It was more comfortable for her to stay in the room and read a book. She sometimes thought of the days in Yunxi Village, but she always felt that those times seemed to have become a dream in a trance.
She has also been in contact with her adoptive parents, and they talk on the phone regularly after a while, so Yuanluo knows that her brother has gone to the primary school in the county town, and she also knows that her brother is still the top student in the class. The primary school in the village only accepts students from grades one to four because of the decreasing number of children.
She also knew that her grandparents were in good health this year and were not sick. Everyone was living a peaceful and stable life.
But Ji's father and mother didn't know that she was too lazy to go out because she was afraid of the cold. In addition, she had invited her classmates to her house to play snowball fights before, so Ji's parents didn't think about it that way. They just thought that it was because Siran was not at home and there was no one to accompany her at home, so she was still not used to it here.
So Ji's parents discussed it and asked, "Do you want to go back to Yunxi Village to take a look?"
Mr. and Mrs. Ji didn't have too many ideas, they were just worried that she would get bored in the house, so they wanted her to go out for a walk.
When Yuan Luo heard her parents ask this, she changed her lazy attitude and asked happily, "Can I go back?"
Looking at Yuanluo's bright eyes, Ji's father and mother felt inexplicably depressed. It had been several months since their daughter came back, but she was still not as close to them as to the Zhang family.
After finding Yuanluo, Ji's mother's health improved a lot, and she returned to the group to participate in decision-making. As a result, Ji's father hasn't been asking for retirement for a long time. He usually works and goes to school at home, and you can't even feel it.
Now that Yuanluo and Siran are on winter vacation, Ji's father and mother feel that without Siran to play with Yuanluo, Yuanluo doesn't seem to be able to adapt to life here. It seems that they are a little too neglectful of their daughter.
Seeing Yuanluo's happy look, although Ji's father and mother were upset, they didn't dare to say no. After all, they were the ones who proposed the matter, and there was no reason to regret it now.
So Father Ji replied, "Of course you can. Your mother and I will go back with you tomorrow. If you have anything you want to bring to them, ask Butler Lin to prepare it for you and we will take it over together when the time comes."
Although her mother said so, Yuanluo still went with her to choose a lot of things in person. Grandma had cold legs, so Yuanluo bought her an electric blanket. Grandpa liked to eat snacks, so Yuanluo also bought a lot of things, including clothes for grandma and grandpa, wine for dad, and skin care products for mom.
She bought a lot of things. Anyway, Yuanluo bought a lot of things that she thought were good and useful. Finally, she remembered that she had not bought anything for her younger brother, so she bought him some clothes and shoes.
The Ji family gives Yuanluo pocket money every month. With the 30 million that was in the card at the beginning, Yuanluo is now a real rich woman. She usually eats and uses everything at home. Her clothes and jewelry are bought by Ji's mother. Siran will occasionally buy her some jewelry and bags, but Yuanluo's money is basically never spent.
The two biggest expenses were hiring an oral tutor and buying gifts for Zhang's relatives.
Therefore, when Father Ji saw the large and small gifts that Yuanluo bought for the Zhang family, he couldn't help feeling jealous. So at night when the couple finished washing up and lay in bed, Father Ji suddenly hugged Mother Ji with a very aggrieved tone.
"Why do I feel that our daughter has only returned physically, but her heart is still in Yunxi Village? Although she calls us dad and mom, in her heart, we are clearly not as important as the Zhang family."
How could Mother Ji not understand his thoughts? Not only did she understand, she could also clearly feel that she was not as important as her adoptive parents in her daughter's heart. She also tried to treat her daughter well, but Yuanluo seemed to be wrapped in a hard shell.
Just like when Yuanluo has a reunion with her classmates, she will prepare a lot of things for Yuanluo. If Anxin and Huaian were younger, they might think it is too cumbersome and pick and choose to take some things. Even Siran would express her opinion, but Yuanluo would take them all, as if to make her feel at ease.
She seemed to be very good at finding the right balance in her interactions with people. She wasn't too distant, but she wasn't too close either. However, she shouldn't be like that with her family.
In the whole family, it seems that only Siran is closer to her, but she will help Siran and stand up for him, but she will never tell him what is in her heart.
Yuanluo has always been like this, hiding under her hard shell and keeping a proper distance from everyone. She has her own principles in her heart, but Mother Ji doesn't know how to make her move forward even a step.
So they tacitly indulged Yuanluo in everything, hoping to reduce her discomfort in this family, but the effect was minimal.
Even so, Mother Ji still said, "You should only talk to me about these things. Yuanluo is very thoughtful. If you dare to let her see through it, I will not forgive you. No matter what, the Zhang family has raised her for fifteen years, and the time she has been with us has not even added up to fifteen months."
Yes, how can we compare? When she had a high fever and was abandoned in the wilderness, it was the Zhang family who saved her. When she was learning to speak and to walk unsteadily, it was the Zhang family who protected her. Even her first tooth and the first words she said were all in the Zhang family.
How can fifteen years of friendship be written off?
Fortunately, she found her daughter. They still have many years to go. She will slowly let her daughter accept herself and this family. In order to find her daughter, she has traveled thousands of miles. She is patient and is waiting for her daughter to truly accept her.
Of course, Father Ji only dared to speak of such thoughts in front of his wife. He also knew that the Zhang family had taken good care of Yuanluo for fifteen years, and had never treated her badly even though they were short of material things. Therefore, it was impossible for the Zhang family to give up Yuanluo.
He just hoped that his daughter would be closer to them.
Before going to bed, Father Ji wondered whether he should do something for Yunxi Village. He had seen with his own eyes how hard life was in Yunxi Village. Could this be one of the reasons why his daughter was always worried about her family there?
As long as life in Yunxi Village gets better, will Yuanluo be able to focus more on her family here?
