As soon as I went out on my front foot, there was a gust of wind from behind, and I hurriedly lifted my back foot.

There was a thud, and the door slammed.

"Ake, let's see what Dad got back?" I said to my daughter Chen Ke with a bowl of rice, back to the house.

On the kitchen table, there were washed green vegetable leaves, and although Chen Ke was asked not to wash the vegetables, she still washed the vegetables. It was a little cold, and her little hands were red.

"It's rice, Dad, you're amazing. Chen Ke saw the bowl in my hand, ran over, and stared at the rice in the bowl, "Dad, give it to me, I'll go steam the rice." ”

"Hehe, you rest, go to the quilt and cover your hands, I'll steam the rice. "I can't bear to let Chen Ke touch the water again.

There is an electric water heater at home, and the kitchen is not connected to the hot water pipe, only cold water.

Catch water, wash rice, cook rice, all in one go.

"Why don't you go to the quilt and cover your hands?" Chen Ke kept watching at the door of the kitchen, and I turned around and said, "It will take at least ten minutes to cook, and when the meal is ready, I will serve it to you, and you go to the quilt and wait." ”

"I still have homework to do, I'll do my homework. Chen Ke said, turned around and went to get the schoolbag, took out the textbook from it, moved a small stool, and guarded the kitchen door.

After doing homework for a while, Chen Ke looked up at the rice cooker.

When I saw this, my eyes were a little sour again.

Chen Ke is so eager to eat a bite of rice that he will show such attention, I am really a failure, I can't even guarantee my daughter's food and clothing.

When I was about to cook the rice, I stir-fried the greens and heated the two leftovers on the table.

The time was just right, and the rice was cooked.

I didn't have time to make the rice stuffy again, so I turned on the rice cooker and served Chen Ke a bowl of rice, a full bowl.

"Dad, I can't eat so much, just half a bowl, and the rest will be for you. Chen Ke said.

"Eat, you can't finish it and give it to Dad, there are still a lot of meals, Dad has something to eat. I said.

A big bowl of rice is enough for a family of four.

The rice in the pot was plentiful.

Chen Ke hugged the bowl, ate a bite of rice, and sandwiched a little greens, eating very sweetly, and his eyes narrowed.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, this rice is so fragrant, it's more fragrant than the rice I've eaten before. While eating, Chen Ke said.

"If it's delicious, eat more. I smiled, took a bite of the turnip, and frowned.

This radish is really bitter.

But just now, I saw Chen Ke eating two or three radishes with a smile.

Ake told me that the radish was bitter, but I didn't expect it to be so bitter, and she seemed to be used to it, or maybe the rice was too fragrant to hide the bitterness of the radish.

"Don't eat turnips, it's too bitter, eat greens. Seeing that Chen Ke went to pick up the radish again, I said.

"It's okay, it's better than no food at all. Chen Ke said with a smile, "And the rice is really fragrant, eat it with rice, and it won't be bitter." ”

My eyes are a little red.

"Ah Ke, this radish is too bitter, eating it is not good for your health, Dad will definitely make a lot of money in the future, buy you delicious meals, and take you out to eat delicious food. "I picked up the radish and threw it in the trash.

Chen Ke glanced at the radish in the trash can, and there was a look of pity in his eyes.

Seeing this scene, my heart hurt even more.

I swear that no matter what, I will definitely give my daughter a good life.

"Dad, can we go eat KFC when you make money?" Chen Ke chewed on the rice and looked up at me.

"Well, yes, Dad will take you to KFC when he makes money. I nodded and answered loudly.

"yes. Chen Ke shouted excitedly and pounced on me, "Dad is so good." ”

Chen Ke and I ate half a pot of rice, Chen Ke was only eight years old, and the amount of rice was not large, but he also ate a full bowl, and his stomach was round.

Just as I was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Chen Le in the wooden bed cried, wah-wow, I hurriedly wiped the water stains on my hands, ran to the wooden bed, and carefully picked her up.

After coaxing for a while, it didn't get better, and in the end, under Chen Ke's prompting, I found that Chen Le was and stained on the diaper, which made her uncomfortable, so she kept crying.

changed the diaper, took some rice from the pot, boiled some porridge, and fed it to Chen Le little by little after it was cold.

It seemed that she was indeed hungry, Chen Le didn't pick it, and ate a small half bowl of porridge, I hugged her in the room for a while, and she fell asleep again.

By this time, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

Lying on the bed, covered with a somewhat trendy quilt, with Chen Ke's little face beside me, I felt that the responsibility on my body was very heavy, and the task of making money was very urgent.

The two daughters are in the stage of growing their bodies, Chen Ke is older, and he doesn't need to eat milk powder, but it is impossible to always have two plates of vegetables every day, and there is not much oil and water, so he must dip some meat and eat some meat.

Then there is Chen Le, who is only one year old, and he can't even walk, and he can't speak much, it is when he needs to supplement nutrition, he must drink milk powder, and porridge is not nutritious.

The next day, while I was still in bed, I heard movement.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Chen Ke washing.

"Dad, are you awake?" Chen Ke saw me and said, "You can sleep for a while, there is some rice left over from yesterday, and I will boil some porridge for you to drink." ”

For a moment, I felt extremely ashamed.

I'm in my twenties, and I actually want my daughter to take care of her, and on such a cold day, she got up earlier than me, and she still wanted to make me breakfast.

"No, Daddy will get up right away. I sat up at once.

After dressing and washing, I boiled a big pot of porridge with the leftover rice from yesterday.

After drinking porridge, Chen Ke went to school, and I told her to be careful on the road, thinking about when to go to her school to have a look.

"Reach ...... Dada. "On the baby's bed, Chen Le woke up, stretched his little arms and legs, and when he saw me, his little face smiled and opened his hands.

I picked up Chen Le, dressed her, checked her diapers, and fed her some porridge, when I suddenly thought of a serious problem.

Chen Ke is eight years old, and he usually goes to school, so I don't have to worry about it.

But Chen Le is only one year old, and she can't do without people at all, she has to be watched after by her side, in this case, how can I find a job to make money?

"Damn it. I secretly cursed myself, such a question was actually ignored by me.

What to do?

After a moment of silence, I decided to call my parents, and at this time, I could only ask my parents for help.

I took out my mobile phone, found my father's phone number, and dialed it, but it reminded me that I was in arrears and that it was down!

At this time, I remembered Tong Wangjun's words again, she seemed to tell me that my phone was down.

Call.

I exhaled a breath of turbidity, calmed the depressed mood in my heart, held Chen Le in one hand, went out of the door, and knocked on the door next door.

"What for?" the door opened, and the woman stood in the doorway, looking at me with a somewhat unkind expression.

"My phone is down, can you borrow your phone to call me?" I said to the woman with some embarrassment.

"The phone is down, just charge the phone bill. The woman said, "What are you looking for me for?"

"I'm a little tight on money, I don't have any money. I said.

The woman stared at me a few times and smiled.

"No wonder you came to borrow rice yesterday, it turned out that you had no money, and it wasn't because of the trouble downstairs at all. The woman said, "You're really a failure, you don't even have money for food." ”

"Everyone has a time when they are disappointed, life is in the world, the world is impermanent, don't you say?" I said, "I will pay it back soon if I borrow your rice, you call me to use it, just a few minutes, and then I will pay you back the phone bill and rice together." ”

"I don't borrow. The woman refused.

"It's just a few cents, do you want to be so ruthless?" I said, "we are all neighbors, and now you know that I am in difficulty, if I don't make this call, my family of three, one adult, two babies, will probably starve to death." When the time comes, you will be the murderer of us indirectly. ”

"You starved to death, the world is one less scourge, and as for your two children, it is also caused by your incompetence. The woman shot back unceremoniously, "Don't bother me anymore, if I harass me again, I'll call the police." ”

With that, the woman closed the door directly.

I knocked a few more times, but there was no echo in it.

"You woman, you are simply a femme fatale, and you can't save you when you die. I hated it, but I was helpless, and in the end I couldn't help it, so I went downstairs with Chen Le in my arms, and dialed my father's phone at the supermarket at the supermarket at the door.
