"Shh---h

Mom came out of the room and motioned to Tang Ning not to make a fuss, Qingqing was already asleep.

"Whoa!"

"What am I doing with the money?"

Tang Ning took a thousand-yuan bill from his mother's hand with a confused face, and then his eyes bent into the moon, and he hugged his mother all of a sudden.

"Ahh Or my mother understands me, I can't starve, but I don't need a thousand yuan, 300 is enough for food, at most... At most, buy some snacks occasionally, four hundred, no more than four hundred!"

"Zero your head!" Mom slapped Tang Ning's head lightly, "Be a man of your word, you can't eat less, half of your pocket money will be deducted, and your mother's family expenses will also be saved, you won't complain about having no food to eat in the future, you know, raising a small one will cost more money than both of us!"

"You know, deduct it, deduct it! What is this 1,000 yuan for?"

"You go to the maternity and baby store below, buy four cans of An'anbao's first stage of milk powder, and buy two bottles, buy.... Hey, I'll write it down on paper, you just buy it, well, I'll give you another 500!"

"Huh, so much money?"

"A can of milk powder is more than 200! Anyway, you have to use it, buy more, you have points, and you can give gifts!"

"You can't buy that much, it's enough to eat for a year, and it's moldy by then!"

"One can for one week, four cans can support a month is not bad!"

"Ahh

Tang Ning flew to the door of the room, poked half of his head in, and grimaced at Qingqing on the bed, "You guy, you can eat so much, I haven't eaten anything more than fifty yuan!"

Three days later.

Tang Ning tied a balloon to Qingqing's little feet and gently poked her little belly, "Qingqing, you guy, you are croaking every day, so noisy that your mother-in-law can't sleep, and her temper has become bad, your aunt suffers for you, you must be good to your mother-in-law and aunt when you grow up." ”

"Tang Ning, don't keep poking Qingqing's little belly. ”

"Look, my mother-in-law scolded my aunt again, hey, I know, Mom, but her belly is chubby, I can't help it!"

"Children are like that, your belly was bigger when you were a child!" Mom gently pulled the balloon to tease Qingqing, "Tang Ning, since you took in Qingqing, you can't treat her as an outsider, how did you live your childhood when you were a child, she should be like that, so for these three months, half of your pocket money will be deducted and a full moon banquet will be made for Qingqing." ”

"Full Moon Banquet?" Tang Ning didn't care about deducting his pocket money again, and bent his eyes and smiled: "It's only three days now, and there are still twenty-seven days, my mother's plan is really thoughtful, so I thought about it so early." ”

"Fool, according to the old rules, in twelve days, you can make a full moon banquet, and then the three of us can do it together, and you don't need to really invite others to come...."

"Mom, you are so treacherous, you deduct my pocket money for some reason...."

Click--click--click--

Before Tang Ning finished speaking, he ran into the room, and when he came out, he was holding a photo album in his hand, and said excitedly: "Mom, Mom, you see, when Qingqing was born, she was like a pickle, her face was wrinkled, and now she looks exactly like Yang Ying!"

"Well, she looks so ugly, she looks like Yang Ying!"

"Mom, although she is not biological, she can't be harmed, your daughter is not the only beautiful one in the world. ”

Syllable!

The mother slapped Tang Ning's palm and said with a smile: "When did my mother say that her daughter is beautiful! This is taught by the old man, children have to say the opposite before they reach the anniversary, praise the child for being good-looking, just say that she is ugly, mother is not old and dizzy, you look at Yang Ying in the album, I don't know how many times more beautiful than you." ”

"Mom, I'm your own!"

Twelfth day, morning.

When the mother came back from home, she had just opened the door and was so frightened that she almost fainted, and she heard her daughter's cry.

"What's wrong with Tangning? What's wrong with Qingqing?"

"Mom, Mom!" Tang Ning's eyes were red and swollen, obviously he hadn't slept all night, he was crying, "Qingqing, she is very stupid, when she cries, her mouth is wide open, her fists can be stuffed in, she, she will eat her own toes!"

"What's there to cry about, you were much dumber than her when you were a child, and your mother didn't cry. ”

Mom saw that Qingqing was sleeping peacefully, and when she touched it, she didn't have a fever, so her heart was at ease.

"No, no, yesterday the doctor said that Qingqing has jaundice and must be hospitalized, otherwise she will become a fool, I said that she is going to have a full moon today, can she be hospitalized later, the doctor asked me to sign it, saying that if Qingqing becomes a fool, he is not responsible. ”

"You're a fool, no, that doctor is treating you like a fool!" The mother said angrily: "Every child is born with a yellow complexion, as long as he basks in the sun, he will be fine, and when he goes to the hospital, it is just ultraviolet light, what is the difference between it and the sun, when my mother was a child, she didn't have that thing, do you have to become a fool!"

"Just bask in the sun?" Tang Ning's teary eyes finally bent into the moon, and he hugged Qingqing, "Bask in the sun, bask in the sun." ”

"Hey, stupid daughter, just stretch out your little feet and bask in the sun, don't bask your head, otherwise you'll really become a fool!"

"Yes!"

"Mommy, Mommy!"

Tang Ning on the balcony shouted loudly, so frightened that the teacup in his mother's hand almost fell to the ground.

"What's wrong?"

"Qingqing laughs with me!"

"Hey, I'm scared my mother to death!" Mom smiled and slapped Tang Ning's palm, "It's just a conditioned reflex that doesn't know how to laugh at such a young age." ”

"No, she just smiled at me, Qingqing smiled at her aunt because she liked her aunt, right?"

Mom looked at Tang Ning's smiling face and red and swollen eyes, shook her head, and sighed.

"Mom, what are you sighing for, are you jealous?"

"Jealous of your head!" "Mom put her arm around Tang Ning's shoulders, motioned for her to sit on the hanging chair, and said formally, "Daughter, today is a sunny and full moon, do you want to consider sending her to an orphanage, or..."

"Mom!" Tang Ning couldn't believe it, it was his kind mother who was talking to him in front of him, "Why don't you keep your promises, didn't you say yes...."

Downing burst into tears again.

"Tang Ning, you are eighteen years old this year, you are still a child, adopting Qingqing, it is just an impulse, it is poor Qingqing, it is heartache Yang Ying, your mother will not force you to make any decisions, but I have to tell you one thing in advance, one day, you will bear unbearable pain!"

"Mom, what is unbearable pain? Mom is not a fairy, how do you know that I will suffer in the future?"

"Tang Ning, Qingqing will grow up day by day, she will treat you as a mother, just like you treat me, sometimes she will love her mother very much, but you are the one who hurts her mother's heart the most, and you are the only one in the world, you can use your mother's love to hurt your mother

But Qingqing has nothing to do with you, in addition to feeling the happiness she brings you, more often you have to bear the pain she gives you, you are eighteen years old this year, with her, you have to give up a lot, give up snacks, give up friends, and even give up patting

Who is Nie Zheng, her mother doesn't know, but it is certain that Yang Ying is not a ruthless person, one day, her mother will tell her that she has a daughter, and when that day comes, it will be when you and Qingqing are separated, and from the beginning, she will return to her family

You will lose Qingqing at that moment, she is in her family, and she will slowly forget you, at least, you can't be as attached as a child, this unbearable pain, you will definitely encounter it, or when that day comes, Qingqing leaves you, you will find that you are still alone, it turns out that all these years, except for her, you have nothing...."

"Mom, I still want to be clear!" Tang Ning nodded vigorously.

"Well, that's fine! You have to remember that this promise is not a day, two days, but a year, two years, ten years, twenty years!" Mom stood up, "But don't worry, your decision is Mom's decision, and Mom won't talk about it anymore, but you have to keep it in mind." ”

Syllable!

Qingqing's clothes fell to the ground, and Tang Ning returned to reality from his memory, the remnant sun had disappeared, and the room was dark and deserted.

"Mom, Mom, the unbearable pain you said is really coming!"

Tang Ning leaned on the crib weakly and stood up, her teary eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and the colorful height line at the kitchen door was still clear.

Tang Ning picked up the chalk and wrote "120.5cm" next to the red chalk line carved by Nie Zheng, which was the height of Qingqing, and she left herself at this height and returned to her parents.
