In front of him, a flash.
Ti suddenly rewinds.
Dong Xuebing, who went back, returned to one minute ago.
It has been a long ti since he used "back," and Dong Xuebing felt a bit uncomfortable montarily. Fortunately, he had been standing in the bedroom of Jiangs mother's house without moving, so he stabilized his body after a mont of blankness in his mind. Fortunately, he didn't fall. Then he looked at Jiangs mother and Jiang Fangfang on the bed.
"Don't tell him," Jiangs mother said.
"Mom, how can Xiaotao rember your birthday."
"Why can't he rember? Xiaotao gives and your dad a birthday every year."
"I also reminded him of that. He is so busy with work that he forgets about it."
Dong Xuebing suddenly interrupted, saying, "How can I forget? Even if I forget soone else's birthday, I can't forget my mom's."
Jiang Fangfang was slightly stunned, knowing she had not told Dong Xuebing her mother's birthday, so Dong Xuebing couldn't have known.
Jiangs mother said, "Then what is my birthday?"
Dong Xuebing said, "July 4th."
Jiang Fangfang was slightly surprised and looked deeply at him.
Jiangs mother continued, "Then, what about your birthday?"
"My birthday is February 1st."
"And Fangfang?"
"Fangfang's birthday is on January 15th."
"What about her dad?"
"My dad's lunar birthday is on the twenty-seventh day of the first lunar month."
"Good." Jiangs mother took a deep breath and looked at him, saying, "Then I will ask you the last one. Our neighbor downstairs, Aunt Zhou, what is her birthday?"
Jiang Fangfang interrupted, "I don't know Aunt Zhou's birthday. Our relationship is just average, and we don't communicate. Xiaotao wouldn't know this."
Jiangs mother didn't say a word, just stared at Dong Xuebing.
Without thinking, Dong Xuebing said, "Aunt Zhou's birthday is the sa as yours, July 4th."
Jiang Fangfang seed unaware, "Mom, is that true?"
Jiangs mother nodded. She grabbed Dong Xuebing's hand and said, "Good child, you finally ca back. You finally ca back."
Dong Xuebing apologized, "The work over there is too busy, and I've been on a business trip for several months, so it's not that I don't want to co back and see you. It's just that the conditions are not available."
"It's okay if you're on a business trip."
"I missed Dad's matter, I"
"Don't bla you. It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back."
"Sorry, Mom, I'm back late."
Tears welled up in Jiangs mother's eyes. She wiped away the tears, grabbed Dong Xuebing's hand, and kept patting, "Your dad has passed away; it was his fate. You know about my health; I probably won't live for many years. Right now, I'm just worried about Fangfang. You haven't co for several months; do you know how worried I've been? I know you two must have had argunts, but in a marriage, disagreents are common, and they can be overco."
"You've worried, Mom."
"I feel at ease when I see you, truly at ease." Suddenly, Jiangs mother asked, "By the way, is this business trip over, or are you still leaving?"
Dong Xuebing glanced at Jiang Fangfang.
Jiang Fangfang shook her head slightly as if leaving the decision to him.
After so thought, under the hopeful gaze of the old lady, Dong Xuebing's heart softened, "I won't leave, Mom. I won't go anywhere this ti. In the future, I'll accompany you whenever I have ti."
Jiangs mother held his hand and said, "Good, good. But you don't need to worry about us here. We have a housekeeper. I'm just concerned about Fangfang. Your return is good, but you must take good care of Fangfang. Although she's now so kind of County Official, it's all superficial. What's real is living a good life. The essentials like firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea are what's real. If you two live well, Mom truly won't have any concerns."
Jiang Fangfang said, "What would you do without any concerns?"
Jiangs mother laughed, "Of course, I would enjoy my carefree days, not having to see your face every day, annoying. Hehe."
Jiang Fangfang also chuckled, "Look at how happy you are."
Jiangs mother patted Dong Xuebing's hand, "My son-in-law is back. How can I not be happy? By the way, Fangfang, why did you drive away the housekeeper? Let her co back and cook. No, forget it, you go to the kitchen. Let's have a family dinner with just the three of us today."
Jiang Fangfang agreed, "Okay, but didn't you forget sothing?"
"What is it?" Jiangs mother asked.
Jiang Fangfang lifted the bowl of Chinese dicine, "Take your dicine, drink water, and eat."
Dong Xuebing also encouraged, "Yes, Mom, take your dicine promptly."
"Okay, I'll listen to my daughter and son-in-law." In a good mood, Jiangs mother picked up the bowl and gulped down the nauseating Chinese dicine. After finishing, she sighed and said to her daughter, "Quickly bring a stead bun to fill my stomach; I'm starving."
The old lady amused both Jiang Fangfang and Dong Xuebing.
Seeing them laugh, Jiangs mother gave her daughter a stern look, "It's all because of you. If you had asked Xiaotao to return earlier, Mom wouldn't have had to go hungry."
"Alright, I'll get it for you. Let's have dinner a bit later tonight; otherwise, you won't be able to eat anything. It's already almost three o'clock." Jiang Fangfang went to the kitchen to reheat the leftover rice.
When the food arrived, Jiangs mother began to eat eagerly, "Xiaotao, you should eat too."
"No, Mom, I just finished eating. I'm not hungry." Dong Xuebing declined.
"Then, I won't bother you two. You young couple don't need to accompany . Go watch TV outside. Xiaotao has just returned, and you two must want so private ti. I understand."
Dong Xuebing blushed, coughed.
Jiangs mother said, "By the way, Fangfang, give the dicine."
Jiang Fangfang sighed, "You just took the dicine. you forgot already."
"Is that so?" Jiangs mother murmured.
After a few more words, Dong Xuebing and Jiang Fangfang finally left the bedroom.
When they ca out, Jiang Fangfang glanced at him, "How did you know about our family's birthdays?"
Dong Xuebing broke into a sweat, "Well, I looked at your files, and it was a coincidence. My mory is okay, so I rembered them all." Fabrication.
Jiang Fangfang ruffled her hair, "And what about Aunt Zhou?"
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat, "That was deduction. You didn't know, but there must be a reason when an old person asks like that. So, I thought it must be the sa as your family mbers' birthdays. Yours were ruled out, leaving only your parents. Since your father just passed away, I thought your mother probably wouldn't want to ntion it, so it was left with your mother's birthday. I was montarily confused, but I didn't expect it to be right."
Jiang Fangfang smiled faintly, "Bringing you here was the right choice. Your ability to adapt to unexpected situations is sothing no one can compare to."
