Chapter 42: Be a Human Daughter for a Day (3)
Amberin couldn't answer this question.
All she knew was that since the first grade, her father had been working overtime more often on weekends.
Amberine also wondered why her father was often away from home, but her mother only said that it was because she had to earn money to support the family. But her mother also makes money, but she can take care of the family, she asked her mother and didn't answer, so she didn't dig deeper.
She doesn't even remember her dad talking about work at home. On the contrary, Uncle Ouyang often brought back some celebrity autographed photos or poster peripherals, so that she quickly established the status of the organizing committee member in the class.
"You say, my dad is not the kind of person who goes on secret missions, so he doesn't reveal his work to his family. Amberine stared into her sister's eyes, and now they could talk to each other by telepathy.
Amber shook her head, her brows furrowed slightly, although she felt that Father An was definitely not simple, but it was not so outrageous: "If that's the case, how can your father wake you up every morning without moving, and then prepare breakfast for you?"
That's right. If you have to say why Amberine doesn't know about her father's career, a big reason comes from Anbeline's education method, he rarely asks Amberin about her studies, just like Amberine doesn't ask about her father's work.
Mama Ann has always been in charge of the after-school tutoring, who will check her homework and correct her mistakes every night until she graduates from primary school.
But even so, Amberin's results were mediocre. Especially in mathematics, occasionally bringing back a failing paper, it is inevitable to be beaten.
And Father Ann usually doesn't do the one that adds fuel to the fire, always waiting patiently outside the study for the calm after the storm, and occasionally singing double reeds, all depending on the mood.
Anyway, before her parents went abroad, the division of labor was very clear, which led to Amberine rarely communicating with her father in the past. She didn't take the initiative to talk to boys in the class, and when she met Gu Shaoyi, who provoked her all day long, in the sixth grade, she didn't know how to deal with it, so she had to punch and kick her.
Amberin has always thought that her family is just an ordinary well-off family, and she didn't ask the family what pocket money she wanted when she went to school, and her father helped pack the snacks every day and put them in the side pocket of her schoolbag and take them to school.
To say that the house I live in now is also a two-bedroom commercial house where ordinary wage earners live permanently, and I don't see that I have a huge amount of money from the inside out.
In retrospect, Amberine actually cared very little about the situation at home. When I was a child, I was not sensible, but after I had Amber, I loved to run to the secret base all day long, and I have to say that there is any superiority in my life, which may be due to Uncle Ouyang.
But now the situation has changed. The general logic of investment is not to put all the eggs in the same basket, then 5 million is just a part of the family's savings, in other words, Dad has at least an official position above the middle level.
"I just found out today that my family is so powerful. When the sisters analyzed this, Amberine was overjoyed, and the corners of her mouth were almost at the base of her ears.
Although Amber could not come up with other conclusions, she would prefer a clear answer tomorrow, given that there are often very few families who do not save money to buy real estate these days.
The two of them lay on the single bed in the room, ready to turn off the lights and go to bed, and suddenly remembered that the last time such a scene appeared was at a birthday party five years ago, which frightened Amberine......
"Xiao Lin is up!" Ann's mother opened the door and walked to the head of the bed.
Amberin felt her body being shaken and shaken, and slowly became conscious, turning over to avoid interruptions, and suddenly felt as if she had accidentally bumped into something.
Oops!
Amberine opened her eyes suddenly, and her sister was still lying beside her! But she couldn't move now, nor did she move, and she was too flustered to startle the snake.
Ambeyi also woke up, but fortunately she was used to sleeping with her head under the covers, so she had at least bought a few more seconds to think.
Amberine panicked, if her plan was exposed earlier, she didn't dare to think about how her parents would react.
"What's in your quilt?" Although An's mother didn't wear glasses, she vaguely noticed that something was wrong, especially Amberin's appearance as a thief, she knew too well, there must be a ghost.
An's mother walked around the end of the bed to the other side, reaching out to lift the quilt whole.
"Uh-huh, no? I thought there was someone lying next to you. "Mother Ann didn't notice anything.
"How could it be. Amberine replied lightly as she rolled out of bed, and she could hear her heavy heartbeat at the moment.
What is that kind of feeling? It is not an exaggeration to say that you will die and be reborn.
My sister is gone, but the folds of the quilt still retain the shape of the human body, which is probably the most unbelievable event of the year.
Amberine didn't know if her mother would take it to heart.
"Where did you get that crutch at your bedside?"
By the way, and crutches! My sister's legs and feet have not yet recovered, and I don't know where she will move, whether she will hurt her knees.
Amberine never thought that the first problem that her sister left for herself would start when she got up: "This is what my friend forgot to take yesterday, she had a car accident during the winter vacation, and she fractured her lower leg, and I brought it to her on Monday." ”
"Can you forget to bring crutches when you're all injured?"
"Hahaha, yes, because she's almost fine, she doesn't need it in front of us, just to miss two more gym lessons. ”
"Oh, it's good to recover, to recover. An's mother looked helpless, and now children don't like sports so much.
Amberine breathed a sigh of relief, such a excuse is also due to her mother's hearing, and there is a high probability that she will not believe it if her father is present.
Amberin entered the bathroom, and as soon as she closed the door, she saw a figure behind the shower curtain, and the two sisters looked at each other and smiled, and finally passed the first hurdle safely.
"You're so bold, it's not me who wants to come in, isn't it too obvious. Amberine helped her sister out of the shower and sat down on a chair.
"You don't need to worry about that, just by listening to the footsteps you know it's you. "Ambeyi's movements are still slow, and it takes a lot of effort to get from standing to sitting.
The visible pain made today's parent-child trip more difficult, but Amberin already had a plan.
She told Amberine to keep an eye on her phone and wait for news at home, and this dream action exclusive to her sister made Amberine excited all day.
Talking and laughing face-to-face with her parents brought Amberin a long-lost happiness, she hoped that this time could be slowed down and slowed down, but Ann's father told her that they were leaving on Sunday afternoon, and that beauty was always so short.
At noon, the three of them took a seat at a Taiwanese hot pot restaurant, and Amberin went to the bathroom alone before ordering.
When everything was arranged, Amberin returned to her seat, quietly waiting for the foretold event to occur.
Dad usually smokes a cigarette outside the restaurant before eating, and this time was no exception. Ann's mother got up at this time and went to the bar to make the hot pot sauce, and asked Amberin to look at the bag in her seat.
When the time came, when Amberin appeared, Amberin quickly left the restaurant.
With 20 yuan on her body and a need to fill her stomach in a small shop in the mall, Amberine went to the first basement floor to find a noodle restaurant, and her stomach was already rumbling with hunger.
"Come on, baby, your favorite sand tea sauce. Ann Ma put the spice in front of Amber and sat down beside her, the fat cow was already on the table, and the waiter served a bowl of rich soup base for the mother and daughter.
Ambeyi carefully imitated her sister's appearance, taking a sip of soup, and a smile overflowed from the corner of her eyes from the bottom of her heart.
