It took a long time for Tang Yiru to realize that there was a person in front of him, the sky was dark, and this person had a huge body.

A benefactor who hasn't seen him in months.

Living like this, so that people who know each other will see it, and they will be somewhat overwhelmed.

Shi Weilu didn't say anything, stood for a while, leaned over and hugged the two-year-old skinny little girl.

"Don't sit here, your child is hungry."

After getting off the pond, he walked for a while, frowning at the three-way intersection: "How to go?" ”

Tang Yiru took her daughter, led her daughter in front, and led the way.

The rental is a courtyard house with six or seven households.

In the evening, when the children and adults had returned home, the single woman with the children brought a man home, and everyone ran out to watch.

Tang Yiru thought about this when she walked on the road, these days, the gossip around her is really terrible, and it has also attracted personal attacks, and she is stupid and almost has an accident.

But she broke the jar and thought, it's already like this, what can be worse?

Mr. Shi is a benefactor, come all the way here, tell him to go?

Shi Weilu didn't ask her why she was sitting by the pond with her child in her arms and crying, it was a dangerous place, and it was easy to misunderstand that she was going to commit suicide.

When he walked into the courtyard, in the face of these neighbors who looked lively and strange, Shi Weilu immediately sank his face, his outline was already deep, and his eyes were gloomy, very fierce.

The neighbors didn't dare to look at it, although they guessed whether it would be the father of the child, but who dared to say?

The women who usually bullied Tang Yiru shrank back into the house one by one.

After Tang Yiru entered the door, he whispered thank you.

Shi Weilu put the crying and tired sleeping child on the bed, knowing what she was referring to, she raised her eyebrows and asked a little angrily: "This is the kind of life you live?" ”

Tang Yiru went out, lit the coal stove with a match, and wanted to boil some water to make a cup of tea.

Shi Weilu looked at this room of ten square meters at most, and there was no place to stand, so he went out.

The woman squatted with her back to him, trying to blow up the wood and stuff it into the small coal stove, but the fire did not start.

Repeatedly, it was like this many times.

Shi Weilu walked over and grabbed the firewood, lit one with a lighter, picked up another one on the ground in his hand, and a handful of firewood was lit, and when he put it on the coal stove, the fire was enough.

Tang Yiru said thank you again, turned around and went to the water tank to fetch water.

A very dim incandescent lamp hung on the tree in the courtyard, blending into a dull and dim light with the sky that was not completely dark.

Shi Weilu stood up and looked at the woman who bent down to lift a large bucket of water, with slender and pale arms, wearing the coarse cloth blouse and blue trousers that women in the town most often wear, and her long black hair was tied behind her back, revealing a silent and quiet little face in the middle, her eyes were still red, and she was as pitiful and stubborn as a rabbit.

"What happened in the afternoon?"

Tang Yiru didn't say anything, put the kettle on the rack, turned around and took the vegetables in the pot, and then asked, "Second Brother Shi, why did you come here?" ”

"When you left, you said that you were settled and wrote a letter, but I didn't receive the letter, but how can I rest assured that I came to see it?"

"I'm sorry, I've been very busy these months...... Tang Yiru lowered her head and lied, she wrote a letter with good content, how to write about her situation?

Shi Weilu didn't break it, smoked a cigarette and raised his eyebrows: "I'll stay for dinner, cook more rice, and I'll go grocery shopping." ”

Tang Yiru raised his head, and before he could say anything, the others had already left the courtyard.

There are only greens at home, and there is only one egg in the basket, which is to be steamed for my daughter.

Tang Yiru made three kinds of green vegetables, put garlic seedlings in embarrassment with an egg, made a small bowl of soup, and waited until eight o'clock in the evening.

Shi Weilu came back with some cooked meat in his hand, which he could eat directly.

At the small square dining table, Xiao Mazha was sitting and eating, and Tang Yiru asked him if he had been lost for so long?

The man didn't say anything, he ate a lot of food, and his eating appearance was very different from Ayan's Swen Erya, he ate in a hurry, and he didn't have any image, but it made people feel that their appetite was good.

After eating in a small place outside the house, Shi Weilu didn't enter the house, tied up his sleeves, and the man's big hands put the dishes and chopsticks together, and said to her with a cigarette: "I'm leaving." It's nine o'clock, the dishes and chopsticks will be washed tomorrow, and you take the child back to the house to take a bath and sleep, don't come out. ”

Tang Yiru nodded, he always coaxed the child to sleep at half past eight, and he didn't dare to go out at night.

She entered the house, unaware that the man had knocked on the doors of the neighbors one by one.

The next day it didn't look like much

tang variations.

But in front of the stall, no man used the excuse of buying clothes to gather around to talk to Tang Yiru.

Tang Yiru couldn't feel that anything had changed, but she knew that there was indeed something different, such as the neighbor in the courtyard, although he still ignored her, he would not deliberately let go of the water in her water tank.

Those talkative women will also wait for her to come a long way before they quietly gather together to guide her.

Life is much better, although business is very bad, no one buys her clothes, and her eggs can't be sold.

Two weeks later, Shi Weilu came again.

said that there was some cooperation with a private school in the town, and he also dragged Tang Yiru to participate in the activities held by the school.

It was this time that Tang Yiru got a job teaching at night school.

Shi Weilu didn't say a word for her on his face, it seemed that the job was all because of the principal's appreciation of her conversation.

But Tang Yiru was not stupid, and he thought back and forth, knowing how much Shi Weilu had helped her.

Maybe it's within his reach, or maybe he really regards Ayan as a brother.

At that time, Tang Yi thought so.

Until, Shi Weilu came for the third and fourth time, and it developed to winter, almost twice a month, he seemed to be on a lot of business here, and he didn't stay much when he came, and he didn't talk to her much.

In the winter, half a cart of coal was brought to her, and in front of her house, she undressed and worked bare-chested, and built a hut for the coals, and put a cart of coal, shovel after shovel, into it.

On the way back from the stall, Tang Yi met a female neighbor and said to her in a weird manner: "Your family's coal has taken up my family's place!" Is that much coal enough to burn? ”

The jealousy in the rhetoric is obvious.

Tang Yiru led her daughter to speed up her pace and return home, only then did she know what Shi Weilu had done.

The man was leaning over in the water tank, the bus splashed water to wash his face, and the cold water in the winter was pouring on his face and body without care.

Tang Yiru put her daughter in the house, took a towel and turned around and ran out, stuffing it into his hand, "How long does it take to boil hot water?" The water is so icy. ”

Turning around to boil water, Shi Weilu followed the towel and grabbed her hand at once.

Tang Yiru turned around, stunned, pumped out, but couldn't pull out, after a few back and forth, she realized that something was wrong, and looked up to find that the man's eyes were looking at her deeply.

"Second Brother Shi." Tang Yiru was flustered, and his blushing was not because of throbbing, he was in a hurry.

Shi Weilu grabbed her for a while, let go of the panicked little hand in his palm, and wiped his face with a towel: "I'll stay for dinner." ”

Tang Yiru refused for the first time: "I'm sorry, Second Brother Shi, I have to take Ben Ben to the health center for vaccination today." ”

"What time is it?"

She has a very obvious feature when she lies, her eyelashes blink quickly, "Just wait a minute." ”

Shi Weilu wears a shirt, has a bad background, and is very capable of working, but he mixes well, he is full of famous brands, and he drives a good car.

"Then let's go to the restaurant and eat."

took his daughter to a small restaurant with him, didn't eat anything, Tang Yiru has been thinking about his thoughts.

Later, he drove them to the health center, and Tang Yiru sent Ben Ben to the doctor and came out to see the man.

Under the moonlight, Tang Yiru puffed up a sigh and called him to stop.

"Second Brother Shi, thank you for helping me get that half a cart of coal, how much is it, I will go to the credit union tomorrow to get it for you."

Shi Weilu's face was not good.

The two faced each other, and Tang Yiru was still a little scared when his face was obviously bad, knowing the identity of this man and what he was doing.

But there are some things she must say, very clear, it is better to say it sooner.

"Second Brother Shi, you have taken care of me many times, and I am grateful. But I live with a child in a woman's family, I can't bear the gossip, Second Brother Shi has cooperation here, you are busy cooperating, you don't have to come to see me by the way, drag your help, with the work of night school, now it is basically stable, Second Brother Shi, you can rest assured. I remember your kindness, and in the future, when you are stupid and stupid, and the burden is loose, I will return it to you when I make money. ”

This sentence angered Shi Weilu.

The man forced over and forced the woman into the corner of the wall, Tang Yiru was frightened and pressed his hands against his chest.

Shi Weilu leaned over, and finally restrained his reckless behavior of wanting to kiss when he was angry and angry.

His eyes were fierce and impatient, and his big hand pressed on her shoulder, feeling that there was no need to chirp any longer, "Since."

If you see that I have other intentions, then I'll be blunt. If it weren't for Ayan being my brother, I wouldn't have waited patiently for so long, Xiaoru, you have a child, you can't do it without a man in the family, you can't do many things as a woman, your child is very young now, and he will go to school in the future, that's the real burden, how much do you pay a month to teach? Making money should be a man's business—"

Shi Weilu married Jiang Rong, and he never confessed, all because Jiang Rong's father had a little money.

The first confession in his life, he couldn't say it clearly.

Tang Yiru didn't feel a little moved, and said most bluntly: "Second Brother Shi, I'm sorry, I'm a man in my life." ”

Shi Weilu said unwillingly: "Do you dislike me for not doing serious things, or am I married?" I can solve these things, the business can be washed and not dry, and Jiang Rong, anyway, there is no emotion, my daughter sentenced me, and it just so happens that our child also has a companion. ”

Tang Yiru didn't know that he had such a deep fantasy.

When I was most desperate, I did realize that it was good to have a man by my side.

But that's just a little warmth, Tang Yiru didn't have to think about it at all from the moment Yi Yan died, there was only one love in this life, no matter how hard and tired he was, he would never remarry because he wanted to find someone to rely on.

Absolutely not.

Before she turned around and left, she told Shi Weilu coldly and calmly: "Second Brother Shi, you are very good, I have never disliked you for anything." I'm really sorry if I have misunderstood you before, but when people are extremely helpless, they will accept help from others with no self-esteem, and I thank you very much. But this is two different things from feelings, my love was given to Ayan, if it wasn't stupid, I would go with Ayan. I don't even want to be dependent on any man anymore. Raising children and living a hard life, I am not afraid of anything, please cherish your present too. ”

……**……

Shi Weilu did not appear again for several months.

Tang Yiru felt sorry at the same time, but he was really relieved.

Stupid is three years old, babbling and learning to speak very slowly, always wrestling when walking, silly but loves to laugh, rarely cry, is a good baby.

The work of the night school, the children in the class taught by Tang Yiru, achieved outstanding results in self-examinations.

Therefore, the town leaders paid attention to her, and she was transferred from night school to a private middle school, where she attended classes during the day and received double her salary.

The days are watching, and there is hope.

But the turning point came too quickly.

During an off-campus research, Tang Yiru went on a business trip to the provincial capital, and at a large-scale classroom seminar, unexpectedly, the person hired to give a lecture that day was actually her university teacher.

At the end of the lecture, Xiao Rushu stopped her.

Tang Yiru almost forgot the embarrassment back then, was generous, and stretched out his hand towards the shy and delicate man: "Teacher Xiao." ”

Xiao Rushu's entire gaze was frozen, and his heart was indescribably happy, "Tang Yiru, classmate of the third class, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
