Suddenly, a week passed.

It was about eight o'clock in the evening.

Liu's mother was worried that her daughter's food was a little cold when she came home, so she covered it with a saucer and felt the residual temperature with her hands from time to time.

Finally, in a scorching wait.

With a click, the door of the house was pushed open, and Liu Xinyi, who was wearing a school uniform, returned home tiredly.

She blurted out a laugh and shouted, "Mom!"

"It's very blocked, right, come, wash your hands quickly, mom heat up this dish!" Liu's mother laughed, picking up a stack of steamed fish to heat it up.

Liu Xinyi unloaded the heavy schoolbag and said in a complaining tone: "Didn't you let you eat first!"

Liu's mother sighed: "What's the point of Mom eating alone!"

After a while, the mother and daughter finally sat down to have a good meal.

It seems that this meal is very delicious for the elderly, and she asks a few words about her daughter's study at school from time to time.

Liu Xinyi said happily: "Mom, you don't need to pay me living expenses next week." ”

"Huh?"

Liu's mother paused for a moment, a little worried about the child, and asked, "Why?"

"The manuscript fee for my photos!" Liu Xinyi said very happily: "One hundred and fifty yuan, enough for a week's expenses, and I also mailed a copy." ”

She took out the unopened "Yilin" magazine directly from her school bag.

Although it's been a week.

But Liu Xinyi's joy did not fade, because more and more people knew, and even the people in the next class knew about it.

It's a wonderful feeling, and I have a goal and direction in my life in an instant, and I have become active in learning.

Liu's mother finally saw her daughter's photograph as she wished, and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction: "This is really what you shot!"

"That's right, I took it with my mobile phone!" Liu Xinyi smiled very casually: "I found that the angle is very important, and so is the light!"

"As long as you pay attention to the angle and light, the whole picture will be more comfortable!"

She said a little excitedly: "It turns out that mobile phones can also have a professional mode, although it is not as good as the camera, but it can also shoot a good feeling." ”

Mother Liu nodded, then stood up and cleaned up her job, and said with a smile: "You have to work hard, I heard that Guangmei College has a high score." ”

Liu Xinyi herself was also a little worried, she gritted her teeth and said: "It's really a high score, but I still have a year, I should have a chance!"

She picked up her schoolbag and walked towards the room, and said with a smile: "Don't say it, I'll do the question!"

The thought that I was going to be admitted to that school and apply for my favorite photography major made me feel very motivated.

"Don't you take a break?" Liu's mother couldn't cry or laugh, this kid.

She was also full of emotion, glanced at the "Yilin" magazine on the desktop, and then at her daughter's hard work, and instantly felt that her hard work was worth it.

She put away the dishes and chopsticks, glanced at the time, and then realized that she was in a hurry.

was supposed to go to a noodle restaurant part-time, but when my daughter came back for dinner, I waited for more than an hour.

Mother Liu put on her shoes anxiously and said, "I'll go out first!"

After that, he didn't wait for his daughter to respond, and slammed the door and went out.

"Huh?"

Liu Xinyi was stunned for a moment, she glanced at her mother's mobile phone on the table, then picked up the mobile phone and the key and chased it out.

"Mom, you didn't get your phone!"

After all, I don't know what to do if I'm in such a hurry, and I can't contact if I don't have my mobile phone.

So she went out.

……

Tide beef meatball noodle restaurant.

Liu's mother was late, but fortunately it was not very far, that is, a few minutes' walk away.

She said to the boss apologetically: "Oops, my daughter came back for dinner today, and she forgot the time all of a sudden!"

The boss also said politely: "I just said why didn't I see anyone, it's okay, it's not that hour!"

In this way, Liu's mother nodded, put away the dishes and chopsticks on the table in the store, and brought them into the kitchen by the way.

Suddenly, a familiar shout from behind her froze her whole body.

"Mom?"

"What are you doing here?"

Liu Xinyi looked at her mother in disbelief.

When she came out, her mother had already come to the corner, and she chased after her, just across the road.

Mom was in a hurry, looking very anxious.

She could only follow behind all the time, but she didn't expect to come directly to this store and walk in.

Mother Liu froze for a few seconds before she turned around and said with a smile: "Why did you come out." ”

Liu Xinyi looked at the kitchen towel her mother was wearing, and then held a large stack of plates that others had eaten, and immediately guessed it.

Her eyes reddened slightly and said, "Mom, are you hiding something from me!"

"Oops, silly boy!"

Mother Liu put down the dishes and chopsticks, then walked out and said with a soothing smile: "No, Mom just can't stay at home alone, and she is idle at night, so she will come out to work for an extra job!"

At this time, the young boss happened to see it, and said with some surprise: "Aunt Liu, your daughter!"

Liu's mother turned around and responded with a smile: "Yes, this child actually came out, I didn't even pay attention." ”

"Your mother is fine, she said to make more money and buy you a better camera, after all, cameras are expensive!" The young boss smiled and said, "You have to treat your mother well in the future!"

Hearing this, Liu Xinyi glanced at the dirty dishes and chopsticks in the store, as well as her mother's haggard and dirty kitchen towel.

Emotions suddenly welled up at that moment.

Liu Xinyi couldn't help crying, she sobbed and flew over, crying: "Mom, I don't want a camera anymore!"

Mom's eyes were also a little red, and she forced a smile on her face: "Silly child, Mom promised you." ”

Liu Xinyi's eyes were uncontrollable tears, "I...... I'll just make money to buy it, you're already tired from work, and you're out to work part-time at night!"

"I see you're all thin!"

Her voice choked and said, "If you don't buy it first, you may not be admitted!"

I don't know why, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

When I thought of my mother's coming to this kind of place to help after dinner every night after work, I couldn't help but cry.

Mother Liu inhaled and gently followed her daughter's back, and then said, "It's okay, Mom is not tired, maybe I haven't eaten meat recently, and I have lost a little weight." ”

Hearing this, Liu Xinyi couldn't help crying and shaking her head, she also heard that the price of pork has risen very sharply recently.

It's an indescribable feeling.

She didn't expect that when she said this, her mother actually secretly hid it from herself and came out to work part-time to earn money for her to buy a camera.

Liu Xinyi's nose was very sour, her eyes were red and she said, "Mom, I will work by myself to make money." ”

Mother Liu sighed and smiled: "Silly child, you just need to study hard, what kind of work do you do, people still don't want you!"

Liu Xinyi cried and shook her head: "I'm an adult, and I can also work part-time!"

Mother Liu pushed the child away, quietly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay, it's three or four hours a day, and I can save you some tuition." ”

"I've asked it all, college tuition is not cheap!"

"It's just now, there's still a year to go, just enough to make up for your tuition!"

Liu Xinyi gasped for breath, she bit her lower lip and her eyes were red, and then she walked into the store, removed her mother's kitchen towel, and put it on herself.

She held back the tears in her eyes: "Then you have a day off, and I'll come today!"

She really wanted to do something, but there was nothing she could do.

Life is so difficult, I must go to college, and only by studying in college and finding a good job can I reassure my mother.

So she went to the stuffy and dirty kitchen, looked at the large number of dishes and chopsticks inside, and sat down......

I couldn't stop crying while washing.

Breathing seemed to be difficult.

That's what my mom does every night.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and told herself that she must work hard to make her mother better in the future.
