After the college entrance examination, Cheng Jiahui and Li Haoyu both evaluated the scores well, both of them wanted to go to college in Beijing, Li Haoyu because of the poor grades with Cheng Jiahui, he wanted to go to college with Cheng Jiahui, so in addition to applying for schools in Beijing, I also picked schools for him in several cities around Beijing.

Cheng Jiahui was admitted to a key university in Beijing if he was willing to do so, while Li Haoyu was admitted to a second-class school in Tianjin. He regretted that he could not go to school in Beijing like Cheng Jiahui, and I said: "Your brother has been taking you for three years, and you should study and live independently, and Tianjin is not far from Beijing."

Cheng Shaojie and his mother-in-law's family were very excited to see the admission results on the Internet, but Cheng Jiahui did not show joy, but went into his bedroom with a cold face and sat on the bed blankly, I went in and patted his arm and said, "Let's go see your mother tomorrow."

Cheng Jiahui turned his head to look out the window and lowered his head for a long time: "Auntie, you don't mind if I only think about my mother, right?" I know it's all thanks to you that I got such a good score."

I stroked his hair and smiled and said, "No, it is precisely because you have always been concerned about your mother, and you have been working hard for her, and you want to grow up as soon as possible, that I think you are a man with a sense of responsibility and responsibility."

He suddenly said with tears in his eyes: "But even if I go to a good university, I can't help her, I have to go so far, no matter how much she suffers, I can't help her." When she was young, she loved me so much, she always held me in her arms, and when she smiled, her eyes were crooked and she always said, 'You little black egg', and now she is so naughty and I don't know what it looks like when she grows up. She hugged me and cried as she left, but I didn't know why. When I grew up and knew where she went, I went to her, and I hid near her house and waited for her to come out. It was winter, and I didn't see her come out for a day, and I saw her come out when it was almost dark, and I ran to call her, and I saw that her face and hands were all wounded, and one eye was swollen and only a slit remained, and the eyes that were crooked when she smiled were gone. She saw me holding me and kept crying, I asked her who hit her, she didn't say just crying, she rode my bicycle to send me home, at the door of the house she hugged me and said, 'Son grows up quickly, mom is counting on you, you must study hard, you must fight hard'. I know she's suffering, but I don't know how I can grow up quickly, every time I try to see my mother, she is injured, she just keeps crying when she sees me, I hate Cheng Shaojie and I hate myself for being incompetent, I just want to study hard, and when I grow up, I have a good job like the brother of the Wang family to take my mother away, and never let her suffer again."

Huang Liqin has a pair of big eyes, but I haven't seen these eyes smile, it only exists in Cheng Jiahui's memory, her sturdy body and soft chest must be Cheng Jiahui's dream paradise, but when he needed her the most, she had to leave, this is Cheng Jiahui's heart can not erase the pain, the pain she suffered because of this, is Cheng Jiahui's heart hatred for his father can not be eliminated.

I reached out and touched his head and said, "Jiahui, you have done a good job, we will go to see her tomorrow, we will definitely be able to help her".

Before the Spring Festival, Cheng Jiahui wanted to see Huang Liqin, but she didn't want to see her and find all kinds of excuses to excuse herself, and Cheng Jiahui was very unhappy about this. I know she wouldn't really want to see her son, so she excused herself for a reason. So I found time to go to her village to see her by myself. At first she refused to see me, until I said I was waiting at her door and she wouldn't come out. Seeing her legs dragged hard when she walked and the unflat scars on her face, you knew the reason why she didn't want to see Cheng Jiahui. I let her get into the car, drove the car to the side of the road at the entrance of the village, stopped for a long time, and then said to her: "I can take you to report the case now, and I can also take you out of this house, but in this way, the movement will be big, and Cheng Jiahui will take the college entrance examination in more than three months, I am afraid that Cheng Jiahui will know that it will affect his emotions." You bear with it for a while, and we'll settle accounts with him as soon as the college entrance examination is over, okay? ”。 I know that as a police officer I shouldn't do it, but as a mother, it's best for my child.

Huang Liqin lowered her head and said stubbornly: "I'm fine, I was just kicked by him and didn't stand firm and fell and sprained my waist, it will be fine in a few days, don't tell Cheng Jiahui."

I took her to a Chinese medicine clinic in the countryside for a massage, prescribed some medicine to send her home, and left her some money, watching her want to refuse the money I gave but had to hold it, I realized the helplessness of this very backbone woman, so my heart became more and more sad for her. But for the sake of Cheng Jiahui, I had to let her choose to forbear.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and I didn't take Cheng Jiahui and Li Haoyu to Donggou Village until noon, I knew that only at this time would there be people in the farmer's house, and the weather was so hot today, Huang Liqin would definitely be at home at noon.

When we arrived at the door of Zhang Dezhu's house, the door was ajar, I went up and knocked on the door, and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl came out, she stretched out her head to look at us and asked vigilantly, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for Huang Liqin," I said.

She looked at me with a puzzled look and said, "My mother is not at home, she didn't come back."

I looked at the scorching sun above me and said, "She's still on the ground on such a hot day?" Even when I went down to the ground, it was time to come back for lunch."

"She doesn't come back at noon to listen to the meal, she brings it," the girl said in a relaxed tone.

I stretched out my head and poked into the yard, feeling that there were many people in the yard, and remembering the words of the village women's director last time, I asked, "Are all the people in your family in the field?" ”

"My mom and my sister are in the field, and they're topping cotton."

Suppressing the anger in my heart, I asked, "Where is your land?" ”

The girl looked at me and shook her head and said, "I don't know, I haven't been".

We were talking, only to see Zhang Dezhu also came out of the courtyard with a smell of alcohol, he opened the courtyard door wide, followed by two old men in their sixties and a man of the same grade as Zhang Dezhu, that man also had the smell of alcohol.

Zhang Dezhu was stunned for a moment when he saw that I was me, looked at Cheng Jiahui and Li Haoyu behind me and said viciously: "What are you looking for Huang Liqin for?" ”

The fire in my heart did not hit anywhere, and I looked at this disgusting man and said word by word: "Her son has been admitted to a prestigious university in Beijing, and we came to her to tell her."

After speaking, he didn't look at Zhang Dezhu's jealous and hateful face, turned to Cheng Jiahui and Li Haoyu and said, "Get in the car, let's go find your mother."

After getting into the car, Cheng Jiahui said: "We don't know where his family's land is."

I turned my head to look at him and said, "The road is under my nose, and when I go out in the future, I have to listen more, see more, ask more and talk less, you know!" ”。

I drove to the front of the shop near the entrance of the village and saw the village women's director I had seen before standing in the shade of a tree in front of the shop and chatting with a few people. I parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and walked to the front of the store, several people who were chatting looked at me, and the women's director saw me stunned for a while and immediately greeted me with a smile on her face and said, "Officer Lin, why are you here?" ”

I smiled and said to her: "I came to find Huang Liqin, her family said that she was still in the field, we don't know where her family's land is, and we want to find someone to ask for directions."

The women's director smiled: "Her family's land is quite far away, and I tell you that you may not be able to find it, so I'll take you there, do you have something to do with her?" ”

I glanced at the curious eyes of the people in front of the store and deliberately said loudly: "Her son has been admitted to a prestigious university, and I brought him over to see his mother today."

The women's director and those who looked at us immediately showed envious eyes, and the women's director said loudly: "Huang Liqin is really blessed, she gave birth to such a promising son, she doesn't want to die of happiness if she knows, go, go, go, I'll take you there." When the group heard that it was Huang Liqin's son standing next to me, they all looked around him and kept praising him.

I looked at Cheng Jiahui standing next to me, and saw that he looked at the people around him with a serious expression without any expression on his face, thinking that it was really rare for such a child to be able to show joy and anger.

The women's director was such a capable person that she rode a 250 motorcycle and led the way in front of us, and we walked for a long time along the dirt road in the fields before stopping at the edge of a large cotton field. The women's director said: "This is it, other people's cotton tops were finished two days ago, and now only Huang Liqin's cotton tops have not been finished."

"Why?" I asked.

"Other people's families either have a lot of people working or hire people, but only her family, that is, no one pays to hire people and no one helps her, only she is the only one who works hard in the field every day."

"I just came from Zhang Dezhu's house, and I saw that there were two old people in his family and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old daughter, and Zhang Dezhu was also at home, why didn't they work in the fields."

The women's director said: "When the weather is cold in the morning, the two old people sometimes go to the field to help, and when it is hot in the middle of the afternoon, they go home to cook.

I stood in the shade of the tree at the edge of the field, I couldn't see a single figure in the endless cotton field, I looked around, and under the tree not far away, I saw a girl about eight or nine years old who was sitting on a plastic sheet and looking at us sleepily, I pulled the women's director and pointed to the little girl, the women's director said: "This is the daughter born by Huang Liqin herself", and walked over and asked, "Duoduo, where is your mother?" ”

The girl looked at the women's director and then at us, pointed to the field and said, "Mommy is in the field."

The women's director shouted in the direction the girl was pointing, "Huang Liqin, Huang Liqin".

After a while, a man stood up in the cotton field and looked at us, in such a large cotton field, under the scorching sun, this figure looked lonely and illusory.
