The precocious maturity of their daughter, who was less than six years old, made Chen Yao and the young couple feel stunned, in fact, the reason is very simple, the children of poor families are in charge of the family early.

Yimo began to understand the predicament of family life since she was sensible, her father did not go out but worked, drank and gambled, and the heavy responsibility of the family has always been pressed on her mother, it is really difficult for a woman.

Looking at the mother who works hard every day and the father who eats and waits for death every day, I feel distressed for the former and heartache for the latter.

And Chen Yao, who was looking at Yimo at this moment, was heartbroken even if he was distressed.

The father and daughter both lowered their heads and stood silently, and the young couple in the restaurant on the side looked at each other, silent, and even the air was quiet.

The restaurant proprietress spoke first.

"Little girl, can I change the spinach for you and change it for greens?"

"Okay, thank you, Auntie. ”

Yimo raised her head and smiled sweetly at the restaurant proprietress .

Chen Yao's chest rose and fell, and then he took a deep breath, looked at the young couple in the restaurant and said.

"Then let's do it, green vegetable fried noodles, the child can't eat much, just make a small bowl, eat it here, and then make a celery rice bowl, then tomato and tofu soup, take it away, my wife has a fracture and just had surgery in the hospital, hurry up, it's troublesome." ”

"Well, soon. ”

The man glanced at Chen Yao and Yimo deeply, then turned around and went to the kitchen to cook, and the woman sat on the counter.

"Dad, aren't you going to eat?"

Yimo heard that Chen Yao only needed two meals, so he looked at Chen Yao who was sitting in front of him with some confusion.

"Ahh ”

"Well, well. Yimo looked down at a comic book in his hand.

deceived his daughter, Chen Yao breathed a sigh of relief, watching his daughter look down and read a book, Chen Yao quietly put his hand into his trouser pocket, and he took out a bunch of change and counted it.

"58 bucks. ”

Chen Yao glanced at the food price list again, eight yuan for a vegetarian fried noodles, twenty yuan for celery rice bowl, ten yuan for tomato and tofu soup, a total of thirty-eight yuan, and there was only twenty yuan left after paying, now it was already dark, there was no bus, if he ate now, he would not even have the money to take a taxi home for a while, and asked Shen Qiu if he wanted it? Don't forget that she is still lying on the hospital bed.

The current Chen Yao is not the previous Chen Yao, he can't do this kind of thing.

Take it by yourself, and when you get home, you can buy two steamed buns and pad it.

Chen Yao's subtle movements of counting the money were seen by the hotel proprietress sitting on the side, and a trace of sympathy and pity appeared in her eyes.

She got up and went to the kitchen.

More than ten minutes later, he walked out with a bowl of noodles and placed it in front of Chen Yao and Yimo.

"The noodles are coming. ”

Looking at the fried noodles with meat in a basin, Chen Yao said to the proprietress in a bit of a panic.

"Are you mistaken? I want a small portion of fried noodles. ”

"And I want fried noodles with meat, not fried meat. ”

Chen Yao looked at the amount of meat in the basin and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then tightly pinched the pocket containing 58 yuan, feeling a little apprehensive.

The proprietress said with a smile.

"Hey, this is a small portion, most of the people who come to eat here are migrant workers from several nearby construction sites, so the portion is very large, and a small portion is enough for your father and daughter. ”

As she spoke, the proprietress put a small bowl and chopsticks on the table in front of Chen Yao.

"Eat first, and I'll get you the food you want to take away." ”

With that, she turned and went back to the back kitchen.

Chen Yao was stunned, and then looked at the pot of fried noodles with meat with a happy face, it seemed that he didn't have to starve, and then used a small bowl to divide the noodles with foam.

"Hurry up and eat, and we'll go to my mother when we're done." ”

Yimo nodded happily and hurriedly ate, Chen Yao was already hungry and immediately devoured it.

In the back kitchen.

The man looked at his wife with a resentful look.

"I said, wife, did you fall in love with that man, you gave half a catty of meat and eight yuan for a fried noodle, I think we are still closed. ”

The woman gave her husband a slap in the face.

"Then I also said that you have a crush on someone's little daughter? You fried a big pot for them with a small bowl of fried noodles, and it seems that I still have to take care of the family's money. ”

……

When Chen Yao came out of the restaurant after paying the bill, he walked towards the hospital with Yimo in one hand and the food in the other.

"I told you, I don't need your concern. ”

Chen Yao and Yimo had just walked to the door of Shen Qiu's hospital room when suddenly Shen Qiu's somewhat excited voice came from inside.

"Could it be that Li Heng, the haunted guy, is here again. ”

Chen Yao pushed open the door of the ward and walked in quickly, today I have to teach Li Heng, the bastard, a lesson, and let him harass his wife try again.

"Li Jun?"

When Chen Yao pushed the door open, he was surprised to find that his best friend Li Jun was standing at the head of Shen Qiu's hospital bed, and he was holding a stack of cash in his hand and stuffing it into Shen Qiu's arms, but Shen Qiu didn't want to live or die.

"Chen Yao?"

When they saw Chen Yao, there was a trace of panic on both Li Jun and Shen Qiu's faces.

"Aren't you in the provincial capital?"

Chen Yao looked at Li Jun with some astonishment.

Li Jun said hurriedly.

"Yes, I was originally in the provincial capital, but when I heard that something happened to your family, I drove back, I know that you are short of money now, this is 3,000 yuan, you take it first, it is important to see a doctor." ”

Li Jun walked towards Chen Yao and handed the money in his hand to Chen Yao.

Hearing Li Jun's words, Chen Yao was full of emotion, and he didn't even have the extra mind to think about the paleness and panic on the faces of his good friend Li Jun and his wife Shen Qiu when he pushed the door in just now.

He hurriedly put down the Yimo in his hand, and then said to Li Jun with some trepidation.

"I really can't ask for this money, the medical expenses have been settled, and we don't have anything to use the money in the future, so you better put this money away quickly." ”

"Don't worry, I'll open my mouth to you if I really need to. ”

Li Jun felt Chen Yao's absolute trust in him, and his heart was extremely painful, he really fell in love with his good friend's wife?

But it was obvious that he met Shen Qiu first, he regretted it a little, if he had expressed his love to Shen Qiu earlier, then would Shen Qiu be his wife now?

When Chen Yao and Shen Qiu came together, he almost went crazy, but he didn't say anything, everything was developing naturally.

Shen Qiu and Chen Yao, he and Shu Ya both got married in the same month.

He had always thought that he had long since exhausted his strange feelings for Shen Qiu, whether it was like this or not, but he had always told himself like this.

Until today, when Shu Ya broke his mind at the door of the hospital and asked whether he wanted to help Chen Yao or Shen Qiu, his heart made waves again, and the feelings that he had suppressed for many years in his heart began to be restless again.

But are you wrong?

"How is Shu Ya's mother's illness? ”

Chen Yao still noticed that Li Jun was a little abnormal, but he didn't expect that Li Jun would actually have thoughts about his wife Shen Qiu in his heart.

Li Jun came back to his senses and said a little vaguely.

"Oh, I'll come back and bring a few clothes for Shu Ya, Shu Ya's mother's illness is fine, and she will be able to operate normally in half a month, and when she comes back, I'll stop by to see Shen Qiu." ”

"That's good, that's good. ”

Chen Yao nodded thoughtlessly.

Looking at Chen Yao's trust in him, Li Jun felt more and more ashamed, he didn't dare to face Chen Yao, so he said in a hurry.

"Okay, it's not too early, I have to rush back to the provincial capital, since you don't need money, then I'll go first. ”

……

After Li Jun walked out of the ward, Chen Yao walked towards Shen Qiu's mother and son, he put the food on Shen Qiu's bedside table, and said to Shen Qiu while untying the bag.

"Don't have such a bad attitude towards Li Jun in the future, he sent us money with good intentions, even if you don't want to, don't be so loud about him, and I found that your attitude towards Li Jun has been very bad in the past few years, I really can't figure out what you think. ”

Chen Yao complained a little, then scooped a spoonful of celery rice bowl with a spoon and handed it to Shen Qiu, who was stroking his daughter's little head.

But Shen Qiu gave Chen Yao a blank look.

"I don't eat it. ”

Shen Qiu was a little unhappy, and secretly thought in his heart, why are you an elm head, you really have to wait for your wife to run away with others before you can understand?

The originally warm atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Is it okay to feed your mother with foam?"

Saying that, Yi Mo, who had just cried his nose, wanted to take the spoon from Chen Yao's hand, and looked at Yi Mo, Chen Yao and Shen Qiu both softened.

Shen Qiu touched Yi Mo's face.

"Thank you, little beauty, Mom can do it herself. ”

Saying that, Shen Qiu took the rice bowl and spoon in Chen Yao's hand, ate it, and fed Yimo from time to time.

A 20-yuan rice bowl and 10-yuan tofu soup are satisfying for this mother and daughter.

"I'm going to give you a house before I die. ”

Chen Yao looked at this scene, gritted his teeth, and thought silently.

After eating, Chen Yao threw out all the garbage, and when he came back, he kept thinking about whether he wanted to talk to Shen Qiu about the child?

Chen Yao had already made up his mind, Shen Qiu definitely couldn't have the child in his belly now.

I can't tell if I'm going to die on this day, and when the time comes, a Yimo, a child who has just been born, or even a child who has not yet been born, will make Shen Qiu unable to recover and live.

Well, the child can't have it.

Chen Yao walked into the ward again, and his daughter Yimo was already asleep next to Shen Qiu's bed, just leaving Chen Yao and Shen Qiu a chance to talk.

"Husband, when I was about to wake up today, I seemed to hear you say, your time is running out, what does this mean?"

Shen Qiu spoke before Chen Yao spoke.

"Oh no, is it going to be discovered by Shen Qiu?" Chen Yao's heart rose to his throat, and he didn't dare to look at Shen Qiu's eyes.
