Chapter 352: Thoughts Buried Deep in My Heart
Then, he looked at Jiang Junjun's face carefully. The more he looked, the more he felt that she was exactly the same as her mother Murong Xi and her grandmother when they were young.
Finally, he asked Jiang Junjun with deep affection: "Child, can your second uncle hug you? I remember that when your mother was little, I was basically the one who held her when she grew up." When he said this, a warm and happy look of memories appeared on Murong Feiyang's face.
"Of course! You are my closest family member!" Jiang Junjun took a big step forward without hesitation, then opened her arms and hugged the kind-faced but slightly old man in front of her tightly.
Standing in front of Jiang Junjun was Murong Feiyang. The passage of time had left obvious traces on his body - his head full of silver hair intertwined with a small amount of black hair, as if telling of the ruthlessness of time.
The moment Murong Feiyang felt Jiang Junjun's warm embrace, the emotions that had been suppressed in his heart for so long burst out like a broken dam, and tears instantly burst out of his eyes.
"My Xier, my precious child! And my darling granddaughter..." Murong Feiyang burst into tears. His grief-stricken cry moved everyone present, and their eyes gradually turned red.
Twenty years had passed, and Murong Feiyang had been burying this deep longing for his family deep in his heart. But now, all his emotions were finally released.
Back in his youth, Murong Feiyang was a high-spirited, free-spirited, and energetic young man. However, since his wife's unfortunate passing, a touch of sadness has quietly etched itself into his character.
At that time, Murong Xi was just an innocent little girl. She loved to follow her amiable second uncle around and play.
The relationship between them is extremely deep, as close as that between real father and daughter.
Especially when Murong Feiyu and Hua Shang were too busy to take care of the children, the responsibility of taking care of Murong Chen and Murong Xi naturally fell on Murong Feiyang's shoulders.
Although those days were hard, they were also filled with endless joy and warmth.
Until Murong Qing was born, the three children grew up together, and those years were very beautiful.
But who could have foreseen that fate would be so cruel and merciless? On that seemingly ordinary day twenty years ago, Murong Feiyang watched helplessly as the daughter he cherished and raised with so much painstaking effort suddenly vanished without a trace.
The heavy blow brought to Murong Feiyang by this sudden change was no less than that to Murong Feiyu and the Huashang couple, and even more so.
From then on, he fell into a long and painful torment, hoping day and night to find his beloved daughter as soon as possible.
"If our young lady hadn't disappeared, this family would surely be even happier.
"Back when Second Master was young, he was so elegant and handsome, always followed by a large group of beautiful young girls!" Uncle Wu stood in front of the spacious and bright living room, gazing at the familiar yet unfamiliar scene before him, and couldn't help but sigh softly to the old lady beside him who was also watching all this.
Hearing Uncle Wu's words, the old lady sighed slightly: "Yes, if time could go back 20 years, perhaps many things would be different.
If I had been braver at that time, perhaps the ending would not be so regrettable..." At this point, the old lady's voice gradually lowered, as if she was lost in deep memories.
"I'm sorry..." After a long silence, the old lady suddenly uttered these three words softly.
This was the first time in all these years that she had said such words of weakness, making it difficult to tell whether she was speaking to Uncle Wu, or wanted to express her apology to Jiang Junjun and others, or was she silently condemning her former hesitant self in her heart.
At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice broke the slightly heavy atmosphere at the scene: "Hey, Second Uncle, don't be sad! After we have dealt with all the things at home, I will take you to visit my parents.
Let me tell you, after careful nursing, my grandparents are now very healthy and strong!
As for you, don't worry, I will do my best to help you get your body in good shape!"
"When the time comes, I will make sure my brothers and uncles make more money! Once we have saved enough money, I will take everyone to travel around the world..." Jiang Junjun said as she stared at the tears flashing in the corners of her second uncle's eyes. Somehow, her own eyes gradually became moist.
So she hurriedly reached into her pocket and fumbled around. In fact, the handkerchief did not come from an ordinary pocket, but was taken out from a mysterious space.
It was also embroidered for her by a Chinese businessman.
She gently handed the handkerchief to Murong Feiyang and carefully wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Yes, yes, let them work hard to make money. Our Junjun just needs to have fun happily." Murong Feiyang smiled, stretched out his hand and gently stroked Jiang Junjun's head, his eyes filled with deep love.
Jiang Junjun quietly felt the warmth from the big hands, and also noticed the thick calluses on the palms of her second uncle's hands.
In her opinion, this second uncle was not as arrogant and unruly as described by Uncle Wu and the others. Instead, he was a thoughtful and emotional person.
Moreover, to be able to shoulder such a heavy responsibility as the entire Murong family's dark forces, one must have extraordinary abilities and responsibilities to win the trust and support of everyone, right?
It is conceivable that the hard work that my second uncle put in for this mission is probably unimaginable to ordinary people, and may even be several times more than that of others!
The grandfather and grandson were chatting non-stop. When the content reached the ears of Murong Chen, Murong Qing, Jiang Langtian and Jiang Langfeng, the four of them could not help but look at each other and were all speechless.
What on earth did they talk about? It turned out that they had to work hard to make money, while the grandfather and grandson took the others out to have fun.
Faced with such a situation, I really don't know whether to say it's enviable, or if something else is more appropriate...
At this moment, a hearty laugh was heard: "Haha... Second Master, let's go into the house and have dinner! Today is a small reunion for our family!" It turned out that after Uncle Wu saw Murong Feiyang's emotions gradually stabilized, he hurriedly invited everyone to go and have dinner together.
