Chapter 46: Not Running Out (Part II)
(PS: Forgive me, everyone, this is the second chapter, my code speed is really slow, plus it's very busy during the day, so the third chapter is estimated to go at night.) )
Back at his grandfather's house, Guo Qu's grandfather and uncle went out, sat on the steps in front of the hall, smoking vigorously, while his grandmother cooked in front of the stove, leaving the mother and son alone in the house.
"My Xiao Ming is tanned. Zhang Mingfen looked at Guo Qu distressedly, and after speaking, she touched the unkempt hair of the girl in her arms, and looked between the two children, for fear that this was a dream, and the next moment she would not see the child.
Zhang Mingfen was unwilling to leave the two children, although the child's father often beat her when he was drunk, but in the end she was taken away by her own parents, and she has never returned to that home since.
Over the past year or so, she has been to Sanyuan Township at least ten times, each time it is a rush day, however, she can't come forward.
First, I don't dare, because I am afraid that I will not want to leave if I come forward to recognize her, and then I am afraid that Guo Qu's father will beat her again after getting drunk.
The second is that she can't, because she is followed by either Guo Qu's grandfather or grandmother, or Guo Qu's uncle.
Therefore, these more than a dozen times, she has been hiding in a place where the two children can't see, watching quietly, crying silently.
The old marriage hurt countless people, and it happened that Guo Qu's mother was one of them, and she had only met Guo Qu's father less than ten times before she got married, and then she got married.
As a descendant of Guo Qu, he knows that a marriage with love is easy to divorce after a long time, let alone a marriage without love.
That's why he won't blame her mother when he starts over, because she is also a poor person. Or rather, bitterness.
Time passed quietly, the rice was cooked, the dishes were cooked, and the people returned to the house, and the family, plus Uncle Guo, all sat around the square table.
The meal was scooped up by Guo Qu's aunt, and the table was eaten quietly, during which the girl may be due to blood relationship, after such a long time together, she is no longer afraid of her mother, Zhang Mingfen does not eat herself, but chooses to feed the girl first.
When she left, the girl had just been weaned, and she had been feeding her during that time, so maybe this was the reason, although the girl couldn't remember, but she was very familiar. Originally, the girl didn't eat food fed by strangers, but now she didn't refuse, and Guo was amazed.
After the meal, it's time to get down to business.
Chopsticks and plates were removed, tables were wiped clean with tablecloths, families sat around, and plates full of peanuts were served.
Guo went to take out a well-off cigarette and sent a cigarette to his grandfather, uncle, and uncle, and then said, "Grandpa, I want to take my mother back." ”
Guo Qu's grandfather's hand that had been lighting a cigarette stiffened, and silence filled the room. Guo went to look at his grandfather with his eyes open, and did not dodge to show his determination.
"Your dad ...... there"
"Leave him alone, I live with my grandfather now and haven't seen him in a long time. ”
"But he said at the beginning that when he went out of that door, he wouldn't go back, and he said that if you see your mother in Sanyuan Township in the future, you will beat it once, and I will ......."
"Don't worry about this, I came here with my grandfather's consent, and with my grandfather here, he didn't dare to go to the village. ”
Guo Qu's grandfather was silent, and finally sighed, "I still don't agree." Your mother is only over thirty years old, she still has a long life, how can she ......"
His grandfather's words, Guo Qu understood, which means that they are thinking about letting Guo Qu's mother remarry, and if they go back to Shuigou Village, they will not be able to marry at all.
This also made Guo go silent, he couldn't ruin his mother's life for the sake of a girl, otherwise, it would be a big unfilial piety.
He's not a kid and can't be too selfish.
"Dad, I'm going back, I'm going back to take care of my kids. Guo Qu's mother suddenly interjected, and the determination in her words was very great.
"You ......!" Guo Qu's grandfather looked at Zhang Mingfen, and all the words he wanted to say turned into a sigh.
"You can do whatever you like, I'm old, and I won't live long, your days are still long, you have to think about it, don't be impulsive. ”
"I want to go back, I have to go back, my two children are still young, I can't let them be so young without a mother. ”
On the one hand, he wanted that he and his sister would have a mother from now on, but on the other hand, he didn't want his mother to take care of them for the rest of their lives.
There is a lyric that says well: A child with a mother is like a treasure, and a child without a mother is like a grass.
In his previous life, he was grass, weeds, like dandelions, and he made his home all over the world, but he was homeless.
Life...... It should be considered a treasure in the future.
Then, he began to be angry with himself in his previous life, he was so ignorant, if he had come to his grandfather's house once, he might not have a life without childhood.
One thought of heaven and one thought of hell, and he chose hell in his previous life.
Back then, when he was still a child, he was selfish, he only needed to come to his grandfather's house once, and it was estimated that he didn't have to say anything, and his mother would go back with him.
It turned out that the matter was so simple, and he had been worried about it for a long time.
Guo Qu, who came back to her senses, looked at the girl who was in her mother's arms, she was very happy at this time, because her mother was peeling peanuts for her to eat, and she also put a lot of sugar in her small pocket.
But she didn't forget her brother, she saw that her brother ignored her, so she got down from her mother's arms and handed a peanut to Guo, who was interrupted by the girl.
"Pot, peanuts~" The girl's glutinous children's voice sounded, Guo Qu looked down at the girl, a smile appeared on his face, took the peanuts and peeled them, and then fed her.
"My brother doesn't like peanuts, so he gives them to the girl. ”
Xiaojing opened her mouth to eat peanuts.
Although the girl doesn't reject her mother, she doesn't know why, no matter how her mother coaxes her, she doesn't call her mother, which makes Zhang Mingfen very disappointed, think about it, the first thing she will say is her mother.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was afternoon, and after an afternoon of play, it was time to go home.
Guo Qu took out a copy of the prepared bottle of wine at this time and took it to the second grandfather's house next door, and when he came back, his mother had already packed her things and was ready to go back with them.
The yellow label car slowly drove away from Jinpen Village and drove towards Sanyuan Township, and when the car was parked at the supply and marketing cooperative, the sun was just about to set.
Because Guizhou Province is mountainous, even if the sun sets, there is still nearly an hour before it gets dark, and this hour is completely enough to rush back to the village's hometown.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the group of four, and the shadows of the people were stretched far and wide, and the three of them stepped on the shadows, walking uphill all the way to their homes.
The girl was held in Guo Qu's arms, she put her chin on Guo Qu's shoulder, looked at her mother curiously, and then her mother smiled at her, she was infected by her emotions and laughed too.
Then the laughter of "giggling" resounded between the mountains, and the laughter was like a beautiful elf, floating in the mountains and mountains full of nature, far and wide......
