Chapter 12: My Daughter's Dream
Tiannan City, Little Swan Kindergarten.
At this time, it was the rush hour after school, and as the bell rang for the end of class, a young and cute little face walked out of the school, and the door was full of many parents who came to pick up their children.
Ye Chen stood aside, looking at the group of children very carefully with wide eyes, for fear that Meng Meng would also be in the crowd, and then pass by him.
He had never done such a thing as picking up his children from school, but he didn't expect it to be so warm and nervous, maybe this is what it feels like to be a parent for the first time.
After Ah Hu sent him here, he asked for his phone number, Ye Chen thought that he had nothing not long after he came back, so he simply asked Ah Hu to take him to the nearby ATM to withdraw some money, so he bought a mobile phone and mobile phone card, and he called his mother again and said that he would pick up Meng Meng.
Seeing other children spoiling their parents in all kinds of ways, it would be false to say that he is not envious.
Just as he was thinking about it, Ye Chen's eyes lit up.
I saw a woman in a white chiffon skirt leading a little girl out.
The woman is only twenty-four or five, with a good face and a dusty temperament, and she has attracted the attention of many adults as soon as she comes out.
The little girl was wearing a light black school uniform, with two pigtails on her head, a straight little upturned nose, and a pair of big watery eyes, like a beautiful embryo.
The little guy is not cute, and who is it.
"Mengmeng!" Ye Chen shouted, and immediately walked over with some excitement
The little one snorted and glanced away from him.
The smile on Ye Chen's face froze, and he sighed secretly.
After the woman looked at him, she smiled politely: "Hello, you are the father of Ye Mengmeng's classmate, right? ”
In the past, Wu Lan came to pick up Mengmeng, but today Wu Lan had already called her in advance, saying that Ye Chen was coming back to pick up the little guy, so as soon as he saw that Ye Chen and the little guy were a little similar, Ou Lan recognized it.
"Hello, Mr. Ou. Ye Chen nodded with a smile, and when he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the little guy yell.
"He's not my dad, Mr. Ou, he's not my dad!"
Ye Chen suddenly smiled bitterly.
He can be indifferent to others, can be strong, and even laugh at them.
But in the face of his daughter, he was helpless, who owed himself too much to the mother and daughter.
Ou Lan squatted down and touched the little guy's head: "Mengmeng, you can't talk to your father like this, don't you forget, the teacher taught you to be a good child who is polite and filial to your parents?"
Ye Chen glanced at Ou Lan with great gratitude when he heard this.
The little guy looked at the crowd with a stubborn face, as if he was looking for someone: "Where's grandma? I want grandma to pick me up." ”
"Grandma can't come today because of something, so I asked Dad to pick you up. Ye Chen smiled and comforted.
Ou Lan glanced at her helplessly, and said with a smile: "Grandma has a hard time at work, and it's the same for Dad to pick you up, Mengmeng, can you go to Uncle Doorman's place and wait for a while?" ”
The little guy held her hand tightly, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, Ou Lan turned his face: "Mengmeng, be well-behaved, otherwise the teacher will be angry." ”
The little guy nodded reluctantly.
After Ou Lan sent her to the guard room to say hello to the doorman, he turned back to Ye Chen and smiled, "Mr. Ye, can you have a few words?"
Ye Chen looked at the little guy and nodded after making sure there was nothing wrong.
The two of them walked in the playground of the campus, looking at the small environment where their daughter went to school, Ye Chen had mixed feelings in his heart, and said sincerely: "Teacher Ou, thank you for taking care of Mengmeng so much." ”
He saw it clearly just now that other children came out on their own, but Mengmeng was led out by Ou Lan, which shows how Ou Lan usually treats Mengmeng.
"You're welcome, in fact, I also like Meng Meng. ”
Ou Lan chuckled, her pretty face was a little gloomy: "It's just that Mengmeng's girl is strange and pitiful, I heard Aunt Lan say that Mengmeng disappeared before she was born, Mengmeng just turned two years old, her mother is gone, and the little girl was diagnosed with leukemia when she was three and a half years old."
Although Mengmeng has nothing to do with me, and I also eat on a salary, my biggest hope is that this child can grow up healthy and healthy. ”
Ye Chen only felt a little heavy in his heart, took a deep breath and said, "Teacher Ou, I ......"
"Mr. Ye, you don't need to explain anything, speaking of which, I'm also an outsider, and I shouldn't ask about your family affairs, but Mengmeng is really pitiful, don't look at her, she's only four years old, but her mind is precocious than her peers. ”
Ou Lan sighed distressedly: "There are often classmates at school who laugh at Meng Meng for being a child without a father or mother, Meng Meng doesn't cry, but rushes over to pinch and scratch the people who scold her, and also offends the classmates in the class, many people don't play with her, so her personality may be a little withdrawn and inferior." ”
Ye Chen listened quietly, turned around and looked silently in the direction of the guard room.
"Meng Meng likes to draw when she is alone, especially drawing a map of the grassland starry sky, I once asked her, Meng Meng said that she heard that the grassland is closest to the stars.
And the person who disappears in this world will become a star in the sky, so Mengmeng's dream is to grow up and go to the grassland to draw stars with a sketchpad on his back, so that he is very close to his father. ”
Hearing this, Ye Chen's body trembled slightly, and he only felt that his nose was a little sore.
In the past five years, I have disappeared by myself, I have not seen anyone alive or dead, maybe everyone thinks that I am dead, including my parents.
It was only under the influence of the ears and eyes that the daughter would come up with such an idea.
In her heart, her own father is dead, which is a kind of despair.
And his sudden appearance in front of her is equivalent to setting a fire in the vast desert, which can't ignite enthusiasm and light.
Ou Lan suddenly turned around, looked at him seriously and said: "Mr. Ye, in fact, Mengmeng still recognizes you in her heart, she is a child after all, and she longs for father's love and mother's love like most children, but there are some contradictions, it may be related to the experience after precociousness, yes, she is such a stubborn and withdrawn little girl." ”
Ye Chen nodded.
It can be said that in addition to her parents, the one who knows Meng Meng best is the Ou Lan in front of her, if she doesn't say this today, she will never be able to enter her daughter's heart.
Ou Lan looked at the time and said with a smile: "Okay, the little guy should be impatient, Mr. Ye, let's talk about it here for the time being." ”
"Mr. Ou, thank you very much this time. Ye Chen took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said with gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
Ou Lan shook her lightly, and nodded: "Needless to say, this is my duty." ”
Ye Chen smiled and followed her back to the guard's room, the little guy was already standing at the door at this time, walking around, obviously impatient.
Ou Lan squatted down to help the little guy brush the hair on his forehead, and said with a smile: "Mengmeng, go home with Dad, don't forget what the teacher usually teaches you, listen to Dad." ”
With that, she got up and walked out.
"Teacher Ou, goodbye!" the little guy waved to her reluctantly.
After the person walked away, Ye Chen looked down at the little guy and said, "Mengmeng, is it okay for Dad to carry you back?"
"Hmph, only children's paper has to be memorized, and people are not children's paper. The little guy nodded his chin very arrogantly and took the initiative to walk in the front.
Ye Chen hurriedly followed, for fear that she would fall down or be bumped into by a vehicle on the road, and when passing by the door of a supermarket, the little guy subconsciously turned his head to look at the beautiful sheep cartoon schoolbag in the window, with a hint of eagerness in his eyes.
Ye Chen looked at the schoolbag on the little guy's body, and found that a lot of paint had fallen off on it, and even the two straps had been sewn, and he felt a tingle in his heart.
