"Chen Yao?"

Suddenly, Chen Yao heard someone call his name, hurriedly wiped a handful of tears, and then turned his head.

Wang Zhiwen was carrying a lunch box and looked at Chen Yao with some doubts.

"Why are you here?"

"Oh, my wife was hit by a car and broke her leg, and I was with her in the hospital. ”

Chen Yao explained to the other party.

"Are you crying?"

Wang Zhiwen looked at Chen Yao in surprise, although Chen Yao wiped away the tears on his face, his eyes were still red.

Chen Yao didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

"Just because of this little pressure? What are you? When my wife got sick, my child was just less than a month old, and I was almost driven crazy, crying much worse than you, but what can I do? You see I haven't been carrying it all the time?"

Wang Zhiwen said to Chen Yao without grinning.

"Sister-in-law is also sick?" Chen Yao only woke up now, why did Wang Zhiwen resent himself so much before.

Wang Zhiwen first glanced at his wife's ward, and then at Shen Qiu's ward.

"I did resent you before, more than 500 yuan a month, it's really important for people like me, but now I don't hate it, I thought you still haven't gotten rid of the stinky problem of gambling, it seems that you have really changed, no one hates people who work hard, and you also need that job now." ”

"By the way, what are you doing here?"

Chen Yao said honestly: "The family has no money, so I plan to go to the car to continue working." ”

"Then who's watching your wife?"

Chen Yao wanted to speak and stopped, he didn't speak, he wanted to say that there was no one to accompany him, but he still couldn't open his mouth.

"It's all the same. ”

Wang Zhiwen patted Chen Yao on the shoulder.

"Wait for me, I'm here on a motorcycle, I'm going back soon, I can give you a ride. ”

Chen Yao glanced at Wang Zhiwen in astonishment, and then nodded.

It turns out that there are people who are the same as themselves, even worse than themselves, but Wang Zhiwen has not given up hope of life, and Chen Yao feels that he can't give up......

When Chen Yao followed Wang Zhiwen back to the car dealership, Li Jiangong was inspecting the after-sales workshop.

"Why are you here? Didn't I give you a week's vacation?" Seeing Chen Yao's figure, he asked suspiciously.

Chen Yao didn't hide it from Li Jiangong, and said honestly: "My wife was in a car accident, the driver who caused the accident was not found, and the medical expenses spent all the family's savings, and I have to go to work now." ”

"Then who's watching your wife?"

Chen Yao didn't speak, but the answer was already obvious.

Li Jiangong patted Chen Yao on the shoulder.

"Okay, just know that it's good to work hard, it will pass, although you asked for leave, but today I will give you a full day's salary, and the three hundred yuan full attendance bonus will also be issued to you normally, and you can get off work half an hour early in the afternoon and go to the kindergarten to pick up the child. ”

"Manager, this?"

Chen Yao looked at Li Jiangong and was a little speechless.

"Okay, I know what you want to say, Chen Yao, remember that men must not let life crush, do it well, you will definitely carry it." ”

Li Jiangong patted Chen Yao on the shoulder again, and then left the after-sales workshop.

"Yes, everything will be carried through. ”

Chen Yao thought so, changed into work clothes, and started a busy day's work.

Chen Yao spent all the money on him to buy breakfast for Shen Qiu and Yimo's mother and daughter this morning, and he didn't eat a bite of food at all, so he was a little panicked when he was hungry.

It was finally in the afternoon.

Li Jiangong promised Chen Yao that he could get off work half an hour earlier, so at half past five, Chen Yao sorted out his car repair tools, then changed his clothes, and prepared to go to the kindergarten to pick up Yimo and go home, and he must eat many bowls of rice when he goes home.

"Chen Yao, you wait. ”

Just as Chen Yao was about to leave, suddenly Wang Zhiwen called out to Chen Yao.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yao looked at Wang Zhiwen with some confusion.

Wang Zhiwen lowered his voice and said to Chen Yao.

"Are you short of money right now?"

Chen Yao smiled miserably, "Brother Wang, aren't you knowingly asking? My wife is still lying in the hospital, my daughter is still in kindergarten, and the family is almost unable to open the pot, of course there is a lack of money." ”

"Okay, pick up my daughter and send her home, after settling down, give me a call, I will introduce you to a job that pays quickly, and the salary is paid daily, but the work is very tiring, you think about it first, do you want to go." ”

"Payroll?"

After hearing Wang Zhiwen's words, Chen Yao's dark eyes lit up suddenly, what he lacked most now was money, a family of three, Shen Qiu was still lying in the hospital, five hundred yuan couldn't last long, the salary of the car dealership had been advanced for a month, and he was worried about the living expenses of his family.

So he didn't have to think about it at all, and Xing Chongchong agreed to Wang Zhiwen.

"Brother Wang, don't worry, as long as I can get money, I will do anything, I will settle my daughter, and I will call you. ”

Chen Yao didn't even ask what he was doing, so he went to pick up Yimo in a hurry.

Chen Yao seemed to see a rare glimmer of light in the darkness of life.

Although Li Jiangong promised to let Chen Yao leave work early at half past five, Yimo's kindergarten was also out of school at half past five, so when Chen Yao arrived at the kindergarten on a rickety bus, it was still twenty minutes after school.

This bus is really going too slowly, I should buy an electric car, ten minutes from the car to the kindergarten is definitely enough, and I can go to the hospital every day to see Shen Qiu.

But after thinking that the whole family now only has 500 yuan for living expenses, I dispelled this idea.

Fortunately, today Chen Yao saw Yimo at a glance.

Through the fence of the kindergarten, Chen Yao could see Yimo lying on the wooden horse in the courtyard of the kindergarten, his face a little aggrieved.

"Emo. ”

Chen Yao stood at the door of the kindergarten, panting and shouting his daughter's name.

"Daddy?"

When he heard Chen Yao's voice, Yi Mo, who was lying alone on the small wooden horse, immediately turned his head and immediately showed a happy smile.

"Daddy, Daddy. ”

Yi Mo ran towards Chen Yao in a hurry.

Through a locked fence gate, a pair of big hands and a pair of small hands were tightly held together.

"Emo, your family came to pick you up?"

Suddenly, the figure of Sun Xiaorou, the head teacher of the kindergarten, walked out of the kitchen in the corner of the kindergarten, holding a shovel in her hand and an apron tied around her waist, she should be cooking.

"Well, teacher, it's my dad here. ”

Yimo turned his head and said to Sun Xiaorou in surprise.

Sun Xiaorou took two steps forward, crossed a slide blocking her view, and saw Chen Yao standing outside the iron gate.

A smile of surprise appeared on her face at first, but soon the smile disappeared without a trace.

Chen Yao is already a married man, and he has a wife, what the hell is he thinking?

Sun Xiaorou, you need to be faced.

She scolded herself secretly in her heart, and then strode to the door, took the door key out of her pocket, and opened it.

"I said, you're a father, can you have a sense of responsibility? Why do you always come to pick up the child so late? Isn't it that every time you are late, I will help you take care of the child?"

Sun Xiaorou fired at Chen Yao.

Xiao Yimo, who was standing next to Sun Xiaorou, looked at her teacher with some surprise, in her impression, her homeroom teacher was a very gentle and virtuous female teacher, how could she be so angry?

Chen Yao, who was standing outside the door, was a little embarrassed by this sudden reprimand, and his face was red for a while, but he still said.

"Teacher Sun, it's my fault, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to let you worry about my daughter, I'll take her back, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. ”

Chen Yao is really like a schoolboy who has done something wrong now.

Chen Yao's repeated apologies made Sun Xiaorou calm down, oh my God, what kind of anger did he make at Chen Yao?

When Chen Yao was about to take Yi Mo's hand and leave, suddenly Sun Xiaorou said.

"Wait, I'm done, let's eat together. ”

"Eat?"

Chen Yao was stupid in place, it was too sudden.

Sun Tongtong was also stunned, damn it, what's wrong with him? Why did he speak incoherently and babble nonsense when he saw Chen Yao?

What kind of meal did you want to eat with Chen Yao, but the words had already been spoken.

"Well, I mean, I thought you were going to come late to pick up Yimo, I prepared a meal for me and Yimo, it's all ready, I can't eat it all by myself, it's all wasted, I don't mind adding an extra pair of chopsticks. ”

Sun Xiaorou stuttered a little when she spoke, but her expression was quite complete.

"No need, I'm sorry to have you with Yimo, and I'm not hungry now. ”

Chen Yao rejected Sun Xiaorou.

"Coo-goo. ”

But as soon as Chen Yao's words came out, his stomach screamed angrily.

"Hahaha. ”

Daughter Yimo and Sun Xiaorou, who had a straight face, laughed uncontrollably.

……

Sun Xiaorou's cooking is really delicious, Chen Yao is hungry and panicked, fortunately, there are many steamed buns in the kindergarten kitchen, otherwise it may not be enough to eat.

"How long has it been since you eaten?"

When Chen Yao finished taking the last sip of soup, Sun Xiaorou's eyes widened and asked.

Only then did Chen Yao realize his gaffe, blushing to the base of his neck, and smiled awkwardly.

"I ate a little too much. ”

Sun Tongtong glanced at Chen Yao.

"You can eat as hard as you want, you helped me find my bag, it stands to reason that I should have invited you to a big meal, so I took advantage of you. ”

"No, no, no, I took advantage of you. Chen Yao hurriedly said.

"Huh?"

But the next moment, the two of them looked at each other, and suddenly they both lowered their heads, why did this sound so wrong?

Yimo on the side looked at her father and Sun Xiaorou, although she was a little dazed and didn't know what was going on, but she was still a little uncomfortable in her heart.

"Dad, shall we go home?"

Yimo tugged at Chen Yao's sleeve.

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

Chen Yao came back to his senses this time, then stood up and said to Sun Xiaorou.

"Teacher Sun, thank you for dinner, but can I ask you one more thing?"

"Huh?"

Yimo and Sun Xiaorou both looked at Chen Yao suspiciously.

Chen Yao hesitated for a moment and continued.

"I wonder if I'm late to pick up the kid in the future, can you take care of it for me?"

"The child's mother is hospitalized, I need to go to work to support the family, and the time to get off work is a little rushed, so it may be about 20 minutes late, but you can rest assured, it won't be too long, at most a month, the child's mother can be discharged from the hospital after a month, and she will come to pick up Yimo on time. ”

"If it's not convenient for you, forget it, I, I'm going to talk to our manager and see if I can leave work at five o'clock. ”

Chen Yao begged his parents like a child who had taken a fancy to a beloved toy.

"So you're late today because of work?"

Sun Xiaorou looked at Chen Yao with some apologies, she shouldn't have been so fierce to Chen Yao.

"Okay, I promise you, I will be responsible for Yimo's safety after school in the future, and I will definitely wait until you come to pick up the child. ”

"Really, thank you so much, you can rest assured that when my wife is discharged from the hospital, I will definitely thank you. ”

Chen Yao was a little excited.

"Dad, I'm sleepy and I want to go home. ”

Yimo tugged Chen Yao's sleeve again.

"Okay, good, Daddy will take you home. “

Chen Yao picked up Yimo, thanked Sun Xiaorou again and again, and then walked out of the kindergarten.

Sun Xiaorou, who sent Chen Yao's father and daughter away, returned to the kitchen again, looking at the three pairs of dishes and chopsticks, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she felt like a family.

She thinks that Chen Yao, a man, is very much like a man.

"Yimo, are you not feeling well?"

Yimo is lively by nature, but when he walked to the door of the house, his daughter lay in Chen Yao's arms and didn't say a word, which made Chen Yao a little worried, and touched Yimo's little head, which didn't have a fever.

"Dad, let's not have dinner with Teacher Sun in the future, okay?"

Suddenly, Yimo raised his head and looked at Chen Yao very seriously with those big eyes.
