My aunt saw Mingen immediately, shouted out in surprise, and looked at him intently.

He Mingen thought about it several times seriously. When he saw his aunt, he would call her loudly to express his love for her. But now, when he really saw her aunt, He Mingen was shy again and stopped by the door, so embarrassed to go up again.

"Xiao Hum! I am an aunt! Aunt miss you so much!" Helanxue rushed to her nephew happily.

"……aunt……"

He Mingen opened his eyes wide and looked at her, nervously even his tongue was about to be knotted. Finally, he screamed softly.

"Xiao En! Xiao En called me aunt!"

He Lanxue bent over excitedly, squatted down, and hugged He Mingen in an instant, hugging her tightly.

He Mingen was both happy and shy, obediently letting his aunt hug him without moving. When he heard his aunt ask him if she could kiss him, he blushed, but nodded.

He Lanxue kissed his nephew's little face heavily, hugged him and refused to let go, constantly sighing, how could there be such a cute child, until footsteps came from behind him.

He Mingen saw his father walking in quickly and called out "Lanxue".

Helanxue turned her head and saw her brother stop behind her, looking at her with a smile.

She slowly let go of her nephew, looked at him for a moment, and suddenly, she called out "Brother", her eyes turned red, and she ran towards He Hanzhu. When she arrived in front of him, she seemed to be about to throw herself into her brother's arms, but in the end she stopped.

"Brother, how have you been doing all these years?"

She endured the tears that were about to burst out from her eyes and said softly.

He Hanzhu said nothing, just smiled, nodded slightly, and opened his arms to his sister.

"elder brother!"

Helanxue seemed to have returned to the past. She called her brother again with tears in her eyes, threw herself into his arms, and hugged her brother.

She didn't say anything anymore, and He Hanzhu didn't speak, but just hugged her sister silently. The people around who were still talking and laughing just now also became quiet.

He Mingen couldn't understand this scene a little, and didn't quite understand. How could my aunt cry when she was so happy?

He looked at him curiously. At this time, he heard someone say in his ear: "Good nephew, do you know who I am?"

He Mingen turned his head and saw a young man looking at him with a smile, his eyes almost making a slit.

He was wearing a white suit, with a big back, and his leather shoes were polished with shiny hair. He was originally handsome, but when he smiled like this, he suddenly lost his aura, and he looked like he was about to be prepared to abduct a child.

He Mingen recognized him immediately. He was his mother's cousin and his uncle whom he had seen in the photo.

He Mingen felt a sense of closeness in his heart. He liked this uncle who had smiled so hard that his eyes became a crack.

"Uncle!" He called out to the young man.

Ye Xianqi was also worried that his nephew would be as cold as his father, keeping others thousands of miles away, and it was difficult for him to get close to him. Unexpectedly, he would be a little sweetheart. He immediately smiled, said aloof, stepped forward quickly, and hugged He Mingen.

"Be good! I'm leaving. My uncle and aunt have bought you a gift and take you to see the gift!"

In the evening, the family sat together and had a meal. Ye Xianqi was still a little restrained when facing He Hanzhu. When He Hanzhu smiled and asked him about his past years, he was very respectful and said that he had completed his studies and luckily obtained a doctorate degree, and he was almost standing up to answer.

Helanxue secretly hated that he was useless and kicked him several times under the table. Ye Xianqi was in pain, but he didn't dare to show it. He grinned his teeth and endured it. He Mingen saw it and asked curiously: "Aunt, why are you kicking your uncle?"

Ye Xianqi hurriedly denied that she didn't kick, because her nephew misunderstood. He Lanxue felt a little embarrassed and restrained herself and sat down. He Hanzhu glanced at the two of them and said nothing.

After dinner, the two groups of people will temporarily separate tomorrow morning. He Hanzhu will continue on the boat with his son to pick up Su Xue, while He Lanxue and Ye Xianqi will return to the provincial capital to visit his old father Ye Ruchuan who has been away for many years.

Because of excitement, He Mingen didn't fall asleep tonight. He Hanzhu accompanied his son, and when he finally closed his eyes and went to bed, he came out of the room and saw his sister standing outside the door, as if waiting for him, and asked, "It's so late, what's wrong with me?"

He Lanxue nodded. He Hanzhu took his sister into the house and asked her what was going on.

He Lanxue's pretty face was slightly hot, and she couldn't speak for a while. He Hanzhu saw her sister's shame and had guessed what she wanted to say, but she didn't know. After waiting for a while, she said, "If it's okay, then go and rest."

He took a step and made a move to leave. He Lanxue was anxious: "Brother, I have something to do! I..."

She paused and said, "Brother, I have a relationship with my son of the Ye family..."

As soon as she said that, she became generous and looked at her brother, and continued to say, "He has many problems, but he is very kind and very good to me. I feel very happy to be with him. Before returning to China this time, he proposed to me and I agreed. Brother, I hope you can bless us."

After she said that, she held her breath and looked at her brother, and only heard him say, "Why didn't he come to me for such an important matter? I want you to say it?"

"Brother, you misunderstood!" He Lanxue hurriedly explained, "He wanted to tell you by himself, and I would not agree to get your consent. He was afraid that he would say the wrong thing nervously, brother, you are unhappy..."

When she saw her brother looking at her, her eyes turned red when she was anxious.

"Brother, he is really good, believe me..." She tried her best to explain. At this time, the door behind her was suddenly pushed open. Ye Xianqi walked in and said loudly: "Cousin, I really like Lan Xue! If I can marry her as my wife, it will be a great blessing for me, Ye. I will love her and protect her for the rest of my life. Please don't worry, cousin!"

After he finished speaking, the room became quiet. He Hanzhu was about to speak, but it seemed that it was not lively enough. A small head came in from the door frame.

It turned out that He Mingen couldn't sleep and was caught by the movement.

He looked at Helanxue, Ye Xianqi, and then his father. Thinking about the relatives taught by the adults, he turned his fingers to figure it out, but he became more and more confused. His smart little head soon became a ball of paste and couldn't help but mutter: "Uncle is my mother's cousin, my uncle calls me father's cousin, my aunt is my father's sister, and then my aunt is also my aunt's aunt, but why is my uncle going to get married with my aunt again? If it gets married, what should I call me..."

The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed. He Lanxue and Ye Xianqi looked at each other and laughed, and even He Hanzhu's mouth twitched slightly. He glanced at his sister, and finally walked to Ye Xianqi, without saying anything, patted his arm, nodded, then stepped forward and picked up his son who was still making up, and took him back to the room.

He Mingen was lying on the bed, but was still confused, and asked his omnipotent father again. He Hanzhu thought for a while and said seriously: "This is indeed a big problem. The root of the problem lies in your mother. It was the trouble she caused by her recognizing relatives in the past. When she comes back, you can ask her."

"Okay, go to bed, you'll get up early tomorrow." He tucked his son's quilt and said with a smile.

The next morning, the father and son continued to travel east, and after a few more days, the gunboat that father and son took passed by a thousand-year-old ancient city on the shore. Because they were eager to finish the waterway as soon as possible, they took the train to pick up people south, so they did not stop.

This section of the river is in a critical peak, and the gunboat slows down, and it moves slowly in the faint cry of apes that come into your ears from time to time. In the afternoon, He Hanzhu accompanied his son to the deck to digest food. He Mingen climbed the railings, looked up at the dangerous peak on the shore that was penetrated by the blue sky, and whispered an ancient poem he had recited, "The sound of apes on both sides of the shore cannot stop crying, and the boat has passed thousands of mountains."

"Dad, is it here?" he asked pointing at An Feng.

He Hanzhu nodded and looked at Qianhoujiang Duan: "Do you remember what my father said about the first time you encountered your mother? It's also in this area."

He Mingen said in surprise and looked around, "I wish I was there too!"

"It doesn't matter if my mother can't make her birthday. I just want to see her mother every day and be with her-"

"And Dad, you! Dad, mom, and me, we are together every day!"

When the little guy saw his father looking at him, he cleverly patched it.

He Hanzhu smiled and shook his son's head without hesitation.

"It's almost done, let's wait for her and we'll get her soon." He thought for a while, comforted his son again.

At this time, a figure of a boat appeared opposite the river. It was an ordinary steamer carrying passengers, moving towards each other. As we slowly approached, we saw passengers walking back and forth on the deck and passage opposite, which was very lively.

He Hanzhu just glanced at him and was not interested. Seeing that the sun was very big and he was afraid that his son would be too hot, he asked him to go down with him.

"I'm not hot, I want to play here for a while, okay?" He Ming'en couldn't bear to go on like this. This is the first time my father and mother met.

Seeing that he didn't want to leave, He Hanzhu let him go and told him not to run around. He sat under a sunshade to accompany him.

He leaned against the chair in the direction of his son, covered his hat on his forehead, his eyes half open and half closed.

The steamer on the opposite side was approaching, and the two ships crossed by, and all the noises on the round drifted with the river breeze and gradually disappeared.

Suddenly, He Hanzhu heard his son shouting: "Mom!"

His heart beat, opened his eyes, and saw his son jumping up excitedly, shouting at himself: "Dad, I saw my mother just now! She was on that boat! She was on that boat! It's true!"

After he finished speaking with his father, he continued to shout at the boat ahead that had passed and had not yet driven far away, and ran along the railing towards the string ladder.

He Hanzhu threw away his hat, jumped up from the chair, and caught up with his short-legged son in a few steps. He bent down and picked him up, ran down, and rushed to the front of the lower floor.

"Mom! She is in the room! She is sitting by the window reading a book! I really saw it! I saw it! It's Mom! Dad, go chase after me!"

He Mingen was picked up by his father, and he leaned out in a hurry, pointed at the boat, hoping to fly over.

He Hanzhu hurriedly hugged his son back. He looked at the ship that was gradually moving away in front of him. When he was half-believing and half-doubting, he suddenly saw a small commotion on the ship.

A woman hurriedly pushed the person blocking the way and ran towards the stern along the passage on the side of the ship. She rushed to the deck of the stern and looked at the gunboat that was facing her. Soon, when she saw the figure of a father and son standing at the bow of the ship, her eyes burst into an incredible light of joy.

She grabbed the railing with one hand tightly, leaned out with all her strength, waved her with her other hand, and shouted to the opposite side: "Xiao En! Yanqiao--"

The woman's voice was blown away by the river wind and appeared and disappeared from time to time.

He Hanzhu suddenly turned around and ordered the captain who heard the sound.

"Change and catch up!"

The gunboat stopped in the middle of the river and slowly turned around. Then it drove at full speed and chased the ship in front of it against the current. Soon, the passenger ship was stopped and temporarily broke down. The captain and passengers were unclear, so they watched the gunboat approaching uneasy.

A accompanying man on the gunboat quickly got on the boat and said a few words to the captain. Only then did the captain realize the identity of the man in plain clothes and child in front of him. He knew it was fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief and asked the crew to disperse the idle people and not get close to disturb him.

Su Xuezhi looked at He Hanzhu holding his son's hand, and walked towards him with countless curious gazes around him.

"Mom! Mom!" He Mingen couldn't wait. As soon as he came up, he broke free from his father's hand and ran towards his mother with his legs spread.

Su Xuezhi greeted her with a smile and caught her son who was throwing into her arms. She hugged her son's soft body tightly and kissed his little face lovingly.

"Listen, it's really you! How could you be here?"

"Mom, why do you tell me to be careful?" He Mingen was extremely happy and put his mouth in Su Xuezhi's ears.

"I miss you very much, and my dad misses you very much, so he took me out to pick you up! Mom, why are you here? Didn't you say you can't come back?"

"Mom wants to celebrate your birthday and also your father's birthday, so she rushed to the road. Today I got here..."

She whispered to her son about meeting her, and while she raised her head, she met a pair of staring eyes.

The man, he stood on the deck, with a majestic figure, like a peak on the shore. He had been waiting quietly, and when he saw her finally raised his head, saw himself, and laughed.

"It's General He! It's Madam!"

At this time, someone on the boat recognized the two and called out in surprise. Suddenly, there was a whispering sound around him. The passengers who had been invited just now also came back after hearing the news. Although they did not dare to get too close, they all squeezed aside and looked at the scene with wide eyes.
