Chapter 30: The Daughter of the Deceased
As soon as he entered the house, his mother dragged him into the kitchen and began to interrogate him carefully: "What's the matter with this girl? She said that her parents are divorced, it can't be a good thing for you to do, right?"
Yi Chao looked for a few hours, hungry and hot, drank a can of cold beer in one go, and then said, "Mom, what are you talking about?
"She's asleep in your room. Don't digress, you haven't answered me yet. Yi Chao's mother slapped him casually.
Yi Chao said helplessly: "Mom, you make a little noise, you don't have what you said." Her mother had just passed away, and she should have felt uncomfortable, so she ran away from home. ”
"Oh, this kid is pitiful! No wonder she says she's a drag bottle. Yi Chao's mother sighed.
Yi Chao said: "I'll take a look." ”
"Why did she come to you when she ran away from home?" what are you going to do?" Yi Chao's mother asked.
"What else can I do? Her family has been found, and they are in the police station, and they will send her there tomorrow. Yi Chao replied honestly.
At this time, Yi Chao's father came over and said, "Don't be long-winded, I'll just say that this kid doesn't dare to come nonsense, you hurry up and give him a few dumplings to eat." Okay, I'll go to bed first. ”
"What am I talking about?" Yi Chao said strangely.
Yi Chao's mother replied casually: "It's nothing, how many dumplings do you eat?"
"Well, it's enough to cook a dozen or so, I'll take a look. Yi Chao said casually.
As soon as he walked out of the kitchen, he was dragged by his mother again: "What are you looking at? Girls sleep, what if they don't wear it?" Wait, I'll take a look." ”
"Hey, let me ask you, which of your friends is her mother?" Yi Chao's mother came out after a glance and asked in a low voice.
"It's from one of our elementary schools. When I was a child, I was often bullied by my classmates, and her mother always stood up for me. ”
"Well, you are not as honest as you were when you were a child, otherwise your Uncle Qin's Pingping would have become my daughter-in-law. "Yi Chao's mother counted.
"Mom, what are you doing with her? We can't do it. Yi Chao prevaricated.
Yi Chao's mother said back to Zhang Moyao: "What's her mother's name? How old is she? Why is she gone?"
Yi Chao: "Ouch, Mom, why are you so gossipy." Zhang Ting, got cancer. You're okay, don't be in front of her. ”
"Oh...... Did they move later? So they changed schools? Oh, by the way, she had two girls, and one of them looked like a tomboy. Yi Chao's mother remembered some and talked more.
Yi Chao saw what she said and hurried out of the kitchen. Quietly came to the room, and through the light shining in from the door, she could vaguely see what she looked like when she was a child.
In a trance, Yi Chao couldn't help but think of the picture seven years ago. Together with their mother and daughter, the three of them walked hand in hand to the park and the supermarket.
Yi Chao retracted his thoughts and secretly sighed, time waits for no one.
Seeing that Zhang Moyao turned over, picked up the remote control of the air conditioner, and adjusted the tuyere up, then retreated.
Mom has gone to rest. When I got to the kitchen, I grabbed a beer and swept away a plate of dumplings. Lying on the sofa without sleep, I lit a cigarette, took a can of beer in one hand, and went to the rocking chair by the window to lie down.
Looking out the window at the dim light, let yourself empty your mind and not think about anything else. The whole person nested softly on the rocking chair, listening to the sound of the rocking chair shaking.
Take a sip of beer and take a puff of a cigarette.
It was as if the whole world was like a smoke ring spitting out, gently wafting and immersed in drunkenness.
As the night darkens, time passes quietly. Before I knew it, it was past eleven o'clock at night.
"Ahem, ahem, Lao Yi?" A light cough sounded, and Zhang Moyao walked to Yi Chao's side.
Yi Chao glanced back, got up and said, "Why did you wake up, didn't you sleep well?"
Zhang Moyao covered her mouth and nose and said, "It's a big night, why did you smoke so much? I woke up hungry and wanted to go out to buy something to eat." "I'm a little embarrassed to touch my stomach.
Yi Chao waved his hand in the air and said, "Haven't you eaten enough at night?" you don't have to go out, there are dumplings at home, I'll cook them for you." "Wipe out the ashtray next to it.
Zhang Moyao shook his hand and said, "Don't bother, or let's go out for supper." ”
Yi Chao glanced at his phone, thought for a while and said: "This is an old area, there are many mosquitoes in the trees, so I wiped the flower water and went out." ”
I brought toilet water from the bathroom and wiped it on my arm and arm. handed it to Zhang Moyao and said, "You can also wipe it." ”
Zhang Moyao looked disgusted and said, "Lao Yi, now there are young people who smear the flower dew! Can you not wipe it, this smell is too rushing." ”
Yi Chao's face turned pale, and he said: "It's okay, if you don't smear the flower water, then cook a few dumplings at home to eat." ”
Zhang Moyao pouted and snatched the flower water for a moment: "That's good." Let's go, I'll ask you to. ”
Yi Chao took a folding fan casually and said, "Oh, I've been hungry for a long time and want to eat those! Where did you get the money?"
The two chatted and went out. As soon as he got downstairs, Zhang Moyao grabbed Yi Chao's arm.
Yi Chao was startled, hurriedly withdrew his hand, and said, "What are you doing? Walk well." ”
Zhang Moyao staggered, ran in front of him, turned around and walked upside down, looked at him curiously, and said, "Lao Yi, why are you still so shy?
Yi Chao said solemnly: "How can it be the same, you were a little kid at that time." Look at the road and be careful of falling. ”
"What's the difference? Now that I'm grown up, I'm still your goddaughter!Godfather, you're different from what my mother said!" Zhang Moyao leaned over again and grabbed his arm.
Yi Chao was extremely happy when he saw her face, but he could feel that she was actually missing her mother, and she couldn't bear to shake off her hand.
In order to avoid embarrassment, he opened the folding fan in his hand, waved two fans beside her, and said, "Hey, don't scream! I don't want to be your godfather." Now this godfather is not a good name. ”
Zhang Moyao chuckled: "Lao Yi, your thoughts are not pure now. Anyway, I always called you Dad Yi when I was a child, and my mother also said, let me recognize you as my godfather!"
Yi Chao spread his hands and said, "I didn't agree!"
Zhang Moyao was angry, shook off his arm, and said, "Then I don't care, anyway, I recognize you as my father, and my life will be handed over to you in the future." You have to take the responsibility of your elders and support me for the rest of my life. ”
When the two came to the gate of the community, there were still a few roadside stalls.
Zhang Moyao ran directly to the barbecue stall and waved his hand and shouted, "Lao Yi, hurry up." "I can't wait to order some skewers.
Yi Chao walked over and sat down and asked, "How can you rely on me? What about your father? It is his responsibility to raise you." ”
