The old lady dipped her index finger in the coating of her tongue and counted the bills in her hand very quickly, her eyes glowing with excitement with a little cataract.

Chen Yang stared at the money in his grandmother's hand that had not yet been covered, looked up at Ding Huifen with his little head, and cried: "Mom, we have no money, what to eat for the New Year, my glass marbles ......"

"Grandma, this money is for my mother, my brother and I to use for the New Year, you can't take it. ”

Without thinking about it, Chen Song took back the money that originally belonged to the family from his grandmother.

Half of the banknotes were counted, Sun Peitao was empty-handed, and she didn't slow down, and the joy of her face disappeared: "Girl, this money is your mother's filial piety to grandma, be obedient, give it to grandma." ”

The tone is much softer, and the image of the old witch with the mask of ugly hypocrisy in the fairy tale world is exposed to the air.

Chen Song is now sixteen years old, and his IQ will not be fooled by her old man's words.

"Grandma, my mom and my dad are divorced, today is the day my dad married that woman, you have to find my dad. ”

After finishing speaking, Chen Song stuffed the money and the red cloth bag into the inner pocket of his mother's padded jacket, and whispered: "Mom, you can't be used to grandma like this anymore, there are two and there is a third time, if she seeks death and asks our family for money in the future, we really don't have to live." ”

If you manage it for a while, you can't manage it for a lifetime.

Dead-skinned beggars are all used to it.

Ding Huifen was stunned.

She didn't care about these hard-won money, and what she said was not long or short, not like a sixteen-year-old girl could say.

Chen Song took her and her brother by the hand and walked to the back door of the factory.

Crying didn't work, I didn't get a penny, Sun Peitao stared, spat at the mouth, and said cruelly: "Ding Huifen! You have found a wild man and have the ability?!You are divorced from Shiming, and you are also the daughter-in-law of our Chen family when you are buried in the soil, don't give me money, you wait for me, don't think about living your little life!"

Country roads.

The rape flowers on the dirt road grew exceptionally beautiful, Chen Yang excitedly trotted to the side of the road to pick wildflowers, Chen Song looked at his carefree brother, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile of peace.

"Sister, look!" Yang Yang picked a long strip of grass shaped like a broom, innocent and romantic: "How beautiful this flower is, let's pick some wild flowers and put them in a bottle." ”

"Yes, you say it's good-looking, you take them all off and put them back in the bottle, and they'll die in a few days, let them grow there, and if it's okay, you can come and take a look." ”

Coaxing his younger brother who was overflowing with childlike innocence, he looked at the large green meadows and colorful wildflowers everywhere.

Youth is so free and easy, and the pure heart will not be tainted by the world.

A dog's tail grass can be used as food for my brother's happiness throughout the day.

Fifteen years ago, although life was relatively difficult, she was so happy with her mother and younger brother and mother.

Thinking about it, how good it would be for time to stay in this moment.

Mother will not disappear into the world because of that fire, and she will never come back, Chen Song turned to look at his mother, afraid that she would suddenly volatilize in the air like air.

"Nannan, are you causing any trouble at school?" Ding Huifen looked at her with a complicated look in her eyes: "Mom, why do you always feel that you are different from before." ”

"Oh? no. Chen Song was stunned for a moment.

Wouldn't it be Feng Wenwen who complained to his mother?

It stands to reason that it probably won't.

If she makes a small report, isn't she afraid that she will be poked out of writing a small note, and it is estimated that Feng Wenwen will not dare to spit out a few horse feces and eggs from his mouth.

"Don't tell your mother if there's anything, when the sky falls, your mother will give you a top, nan, you are eighteen years old, and you don't know how to deal with some things, and your mother will make decisions for you. ”

Ding Huifen said some bitter words nonsensically, which made Chen Song confused and didn't know how to respond.

Her mother walked up to her and stroked her tender face: "You are a big girl, you are sensible, you can feel ......"

.

This is what she thinks she is stimulated, and she usually behaves differently than before when these puzzling words come out.

Chen Song almost thought crookedly, thinking that his mother was going to ask about the school, afraid that she would fall in love with a little boy in the class.

She smiled: "Mom, you think too much, I'm still the same me I used to be, I'm still your daughter, I'm grown up, and now my dad has left us alone, and there will be me and my younger brother in the future." ”

The heart-wrenching words hit the tear ducts of her loving mother, and Ding Huifen burst into tears: "Nannan, with you and Yangyang, it will be worth it for my mother to be bitter and tired in the future." ”

She hugged Chen Song tightly in her mother's arms, and the padded jacket and coat on her shoulders were trembling.

Yang Yang pinched a few yellow wildflowers and pink morning glory with an open mouth in his hand, and hugged Chen Song's thigh, and the family of three hugged together.

"Mom, don't cry, it's okay for our family to be fine, if something happens to you, what can my brother and I do in the future, so you have to live well, and live well, so that the man who has no conscience will regret it for the rest of his life." ”

Ding Huifen released her arm and raised her hand to wipe the tears from her daughter's face, this child is really sensible.

The fire life and death took a moment to mature, and the stubborn little girl in the past figured out a lot of things at once, and also understood her suffering as a mother.

It's not in vain.

"It's getting dark, I've thought about it, the work in the textile factory is gone, I'll take you to Aunt Feng. ”

At the juncture, the third mother has no place to live.

Ding Huifen took the two children to Mrs. Feng's sewing shop before dark, the shop was not very big, and a brick house was built on the roadside in the west of the village, and a wooden board like a blackboard stood next to the door, with a few big words "Aunt Feng's tailor shop" crossed crookedly.

The font was written in white chalk, and chalk was fashionable at that time, and there were also colored ones.

Chen Song led his younger brother to stand at the door and waited, his mother stepped into the threshold to find someone, Yang Yang pulled the cuffs of her clothes: "Sister, can I write on it?"

"No, I can't. She took out the momentum of the eldest sister, and her mother came to beg people to have a job to do and a place to live, and then painted a dragon and phoenix dance on the plaque of the sewing shop, and Aunt Feng came out angry and vomited blood.

The younger brother stared at a pink chalk head on the ground with a pair of smart little eyes, and he didn't know who threw it on the ground, let go of her hand, tiptoed over, squatted down and picked it up, and stuffed his little hand into his small trouser pocket.

"Sister, I don't write here, I'll ask the dogs to draw on the curbs and stones. He pursed his mouth and ran back to Chen Song.

Waited a few minutes and was a bit boring.

She took her little brother to lie under the wall, her ears against the wall to listen to the movement in the shop.

In case Aunt Feng worries too much, she is afraid that her mother will cause trouble, and she will have no place to live tonight.

"Sister, what is Mom doing inside?"

Chen Song covered Yangyang's small mouth with his palm, pulled the little brother who probed his brain into his arms, and lowered his voice: "Shhhhh ”
