Chapter 33: The Opposite Door

On the way home, Yang Yang didn't squeak, just sat behind me and hugged my waist tightly with his two little arms, and even passed by a stall selling cotton candy, he didn't shout to buy it as usual, it seemed that his little nest was still in frustration. After more than ten minutes, I took him back to the community where we lived, and when I pushed the bicycle into the community carport, and when I turned around and was about to pick him up from the bicycle, I saw a few tears hanging from the corners www.biquge.info of his eyes, I wiped his tears with my hands, and then held his little face and said to him seriously:

"Don't cry, it's you who ruined other people's dishes, and Dad beat you, remember not to destroy things in the future and won't be beaten. ”

I didn't want Yangyang to listen to my explanation, not only did he not realize his mistake, but he cried again aggrievedly, and the little face that had just been wiped clean by me was immediately filled with tears, pitiful.

"Don't cry, you're going to freeze your face. I took out a tissue from my bag, wiped Yangyang's tears again, and then carried him to his home on the fourth floor.

When he climbed to the second floor, Yang Yang was finally able to suppress his sobs and said, "Dad is a bad guy!"

"When Dad comes back, Mom will teach him, don't cry baby, okay?" I comforted the heartbroken little fellow.

"Daddy came back and Mommy beat him!"

"You can't fight, it's not right to hit someone. I said.

"Then Dad still beats me?" Yang Yang asked rhetorically.

"It's not right for Dad to beat you, when he comes back, Mom will criticize him, and punish him for mopping the floor, so that he can promise not to beat Yangyang again in the future, okay?"

"Hmm!"

I panted and climbed up to the fourth floor with Yangyang on my back, and was about to take out the key to open the door, when the door opened, and Guo Mei handed me a bulging plastic bag and said, "Your mother has been here at noon, and this is the noodle sheep she made for Yangyang." ”

"Has my mom been here?" I asked, surprised.

"Yes, seeing that you were not there, I left my things, I asked her to wait for you at my house, she was not there, and she was in a hurry to go back, saying that her daughter-in-law was not there, and she had to go back to take care of her grandson. Guo Mei said.

Since I moved to this community, my mother has never come to me, usually I go back to the village to see her on Saturdays and Sundays, but I didn't expect that today she came to me for the first time and met me when I was not at home.

When I got home, when I opened the plastic bag and saw my mother's steamed noodles fragrant with red dates embedded in them, a large noodle sheep the size of a plate, I immediately tore off a piece and stuffed it into my mouth. The mother-in-law who lives in the city no longer uses fermented white flour steamed sheep, but directly buys the bread-like sponge-like noodles made in the bakery for the children to eat. I still like to eat noodles made of noodles, just as I like steamed buns more than Western-style bread.

I broke off a big red date from the noodle sheep, removed the core inside, and stuffed it into Yangyang's mouth.

"Is it sweet?" I asked Yangyang.

"Well, sweet!" Yang Yang took a bite and stretched out his little hand to eat.

I simply broke a piece of noodle sheep for Yang Yang to eat, and he ate it all after a while. He hadn't eaten well at his grandmother's house at noon, and now he's feeling hungry.

Yangyang and I didn't watch TV at night, we went to bed early, and today this February 2nd is tired enough!

When I heard the sound of Lu Tao opening the door, I was already confused, and Yang Yang was already asleep.

When Lu Tao walked into the bedroom, I didn't move, and when he turned on the light, I didn't open my eyes, and I didn't want to pay attention to him at all!

"Asleep?" he pushed me.

"Why don't you want me to sleep?" I said to him, angry.

"Yo, are you still reasonable?The whole family has followed your mother and son and didn't eat, and you still don't feel guilty at all?!"

"Then you can't throw my son out like garbage! Aren't you afraid of hurting him? Don't you know how dangerous it is for you to do that? I don't know how dangerous it is for you to die!"

"What do you mean by that seriousness? I brought him out gently, can I hurt him if I'm his father?"

"What nonsense are you talking about! I saw you throw him out with my own eyes, and you still quibble? You looked like his father, like a demon!"

"Then do you say that he doesn't need to educate him if he makes a mistake? Let it develop? According to your kind of education method that blindly dotes on right and wrong, what will Yangyang look like when he grows up? You know that you are a good person on the surface, but in fact you are harming him!"

In any case, it is not right to hit a child, it will only hurt the child, not good!"

"If you don't beat him, what do you say about him?"

"You can reason with him. ”

"Can you make a point with a two-year-old?"

"Okay, I won't tell you, it's a waste of my tongue!"

I pulled the quilt, turned off the lamp at the head of the bed, closed my eyes and ignored Lu Tao.

"Can you squeeze it in? With such a small place, can you sleep me?" Lu Tao was squeezing me in, and he wanted to go to bed.

"Why don't you go to sleep on the couch, can you squeeze three people into one bed?" I didn't want him to come up.

"Okay, your mother and son sleep on the big bed, and I sleep on the sofa? Do you think I'm the long-term worker in your family?" Lu Tao was dissatisfied.

"Who told you to buy such a small house in the first place, won't you buy a bigger one?"

"You really have no conscience, I work in Shanghai, I am reluctant to eat, reluctant to wear, save money to come back to buy you a house, not only are you not grateful, but you are too small?"

"Thank you, thank you, what? Shouldn't my husband buy a house for his wife and children? Besides, don't you live by yourself?"

"You are really a wolf-hearted woman!" Lu Tao gritted his teeth and went to sleep on the sofa in the living room, and I was snickering in the bed.

When I got up from bed the next morning, Lu Tao had already gone out to work, and there were almost no days off for selling insurance.

I made some egg noodle soup, just ate with Yangyang, the star on the other side of the door knocked on the door and came in to play with Yangyang, today is Saturday, these two children don't have to go to kindergarten, and Xingxing's second lesson is only in the afternoon.

After I washed the dishes, wiped the table and mopped the floor, I realized that Yang Yang had run to the opposite door, so I followed.

This is the first time I walked into Guo Mei's house, and I used to call Yangyang back outside the door, but today is a rest day, so I want to come and talk to Guo Mei.

"So many awards?" When I walked into Guo Mei's house and turned around, I saw that the back of the door was covered with stars, such as "good boy", "smart baby", "little Lei Feng", etc., there were more than a dozen.

"It's not much, my niece's certificate plastered the whole wall. When Guo Mei said this, she also drew a large arc with her arms open on the wall in front of her house, to vividly show me how much her niece's award was!

"But Xingxing is still young, only four years old!" I said.

"If you want him to have a good future, you have to start from a young age. While chatting with me, Guo Mei poured me a cup of hot water and invited me to sit down.

I sat down, took a sip of water, looked up and carefully looked at every corner of Guo Mei's house: I saw more than a dozen bags of white noodles piled up in the dining room, I knew that this was prepared for the cake room; there was also a box of beans in the corner, which I knew was left over from Guo Mei's husband in the morning; and there was a children's violin on the small desk of Xingxing in the living room, and there was a drawing board under the desk, and the bookshelf next to the desk was stuffed with booksCompared to this, my house is simpler, a TV, a sofa!

In fact, Guo Mei and his husband are authentic farmers, and they have heard Guo Mei say before that in order to give their son a better education, they transferred the land in the village and moved their family to live in the city. At first, the family of three also rented a house, but later earned some money by selling vegetables and making cakes, and bought this one-bedroom house the same size as my family. Guo Mei said that she and her husband's ancestors were farmers, and each generation lived their lives facing the loess with their backs to the sky, and they wanted to let their descendants throw away their hoes, change their faces, and become urban upstarts to live a clean and comfortable life. So they worked hard to make money, invested heavily in their son's education, built their son in an all-round way, and strived to be moral, intellectual, and physically excellent, hoping that their son would become an outstanding person in the future.

I just have a little worry that if the stars do not go as they wish in the future, will they be able to withstand the blow of failure? In my opinion, I hope that my son Yangyang can ensure that he and his family have food, clothing, shelter and a happier life in the future. I like bland happiness, but I'm not saying that the pursuit of fame and fortune is wrong. Everyone has their own aspirations, and everyone has the right to decide their own way of life, no matter what posture and role they live in this world, there is nothing wrong with it. Of course, those who hurt people and things are a different story.

"Where's Daddy Xingxing?" I asked as usual, in fact, I knew that Daddy Xing was in the cake room.

"In the cake shop. Guo Mei replied, the same as I thought.

"Then aren't you going to help him?" I was worried that our mother and son would affect other people's businesses.

"He's there, I don't have to go, he'll call me if he's busy. "Listening to Guo Mei's words, Yangyang and I still can't stay longer.

"Daddy Xingxing just sells vegetables in the morning and evening, and he makes cakes during the day?" Daddy Xingxing is a money-making machine that almost never stops.

"Yes. Guo Mei replied.

"It's hard enough. I said.

"There's no way, we don't have a culture or a diploma like you, we can only earn money by hard work. In order to give Xingxing a good future in the future, we have to endure some hardships, otherwise he will still farm or work like us in the future, not to mention suffering and suffering, and he will still suffer poverty! I don't want him to live like ours anymore. ”

"Yes. I said.

"Have you signed up for a training class for Yangyang?" Guo Mei asked me suddenly.

"No, he's still young, I'm going to wait for him to go to middle class before thinking about it. "Actually, I'm going to wait for Yangyang to go to elementary school before thinking about the second class.

"The English teacher who taught my son is very good, he is a bachelor's degree, and he is very strict with his students, and he has to ask students to write words a hundred times a day, so all the students who have been taught by this teacher have very good English scores. When Yangyang goes to the middle class, let's go to this training class where my son is here, the teacher is really good. ”

"Oh yes, I'll think about it!"

……

After chatting with Guo Mei for a while, I felt that my four years of college were white, and I was far inferior to the far-sighted and ambitious eldest sister in front of me, who was only a junior Chinese sister. After listening to what Guo Mei said, I suddenly felt that I should really consider Yangyang's cultural education, and I couldn't just let him play all day long, but let him write, memorize Tang poems, memorize English words, learn a musical instrument, etc., because almost every child is doing these things now! )
