All day long, Zhao Meimei was in a daze, her eyes were staring at the teacher, but what she was thinking about was Wang Jiayue, and the scene she was listening to in the toilet before was automatically converted into a small movie and played over and over again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

During dinner at night, Zhao Meimei was a little absent-minded, and her parents didn't notice it.

Liu Dazhuang has been worried about the buyout in the factory recently, and sighs all day long.

Liu Xiu'e gave Zhao Dazhuang a dish: "Don't think about it, isn't the matter undecided?" ”

Zhao Dazhuang took a bite of rice and replied vaguely: "It's been decided a long time ago, but it has never been officially announced." ”

Liu Xiu'e's action of picking up vegetables froze: "Then what are you waiting for?" ”

Zhao Dazhuang sighed: "Wait for the money!" If you want to buy out, you can't take the money? The benefits that I owed for a year and a half were delayed from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and now it's all New Year's Eve, and if I don't pay it off, can the people below do it! ”

Liu Xiu'e nodded: "That's right, it's a lot of money, there are 20,000 yuan, right?" ”

Zhao Dazhuang: "How much? Who knows, I heard that the house will also belong to the individual, and if you go according to the length of service, you will have to add some money. ”

Liu Xiu'e was surprised: "Really? Is the news accurate? How much do we have to add to this house? Is there enough money you owe to pay for your wages? ”

Zhao Dazhuang shook his head: "Then who knows, the specific has not been notified yet, I am quite hot, you said that if the factory is really bought out, what should I do?" ”

As soon as the factory is bought out, the employees will definitely be laid off, and they can only be reemployed and find another way out, and there is no other way.

Liu Xiu'e is also quite worried about this, the living expenses of the family, Zhao Meimei's tuition fees and the monthly pension money mailed to the two elderly people have all been overwhelmingly pressed down all of a sudden.

Now the efficiency of the factory is not good, and even the business of the grocery store with her is also in a depression, and the monthly turnover is not as much as half a month before.

Zhao Meimei woke up from her tangled thoughts, looked at her father blankly, and asked, "What does buyout mean?" ”

Zhao Dazhuang perfunctory: "It's nothing, you eat quickly, finish eating and do your homework." ”

Liu Xiu'e comforted him: "Don't think about it so much, the whole factory is not just you, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and when the time comes, we will talk about it then." ”

Zhao Dazhuang stacked the chopsticks on the table, his stomach was clogged, he reached out and scratched his head: "I also know, it's just annoying." ”

That night, Zhao Dazhuang and Liu Xiu'e turned out all the savings and small account books in the family, sat on the coffee table in the living room to calculate the accounts, to see how much savings the family had, and how long it would last if the money was bought out, so that Zhao Dazhuang could prepare for reemployment.

The two of them talked while settling accounts, and across the door panel, they thought that Zhao Meimei was studying in the room.

Zhao Meimei nestled on the edge of the study desk, listened with her ears pricked up for a while, added all the words that her parents had said these days, and thought about it by herself, and she understood everything.

As soon as the factory is bought out, her father will be laid off, her mother's grocery store business is getting worse and worse, the family is about to face a critical life, and her father and mother are about to die.

Zhao Meimei held the pen and aimlessly wrote her brother's name over and over again on the page, wild grass, square words, round characters, and cartoon words.

By the end of the writing, the strokes began to be messy, from a clear word to a blurry mess, and just when she couldn't help but want to tear the page off the textbook, the phone rang, and the text message was.

Shi Yang: What about studying?

A simple three words pulled Zhao Meimei out of her irritable mood, she pinched her mobile phone and quickly replied: Brother, I miss you.

Shi Yang: Tell me, what's wrong.

Zhao Meimei obediently began to say, sending messages one after another, first talking about Wang Jiayue, and then about her father's layoff.

There was silence on the other end.

Zhao Meimei held the outbox, counted carefully, and sent twenty-five messages in one go, each of which was full before it was sent, and it was estimated that she would have to watch it for a while.

Zhao Meimei put her mobile phone aside, supported her chin and began to be in a daze, feeling a little melancholy, her heart has been big since she was a child, and as she grew up day by day, she began to become delicate, which added a lot of troubles.

Zhao Meimei waited for a while, and just wanted to send a message to ask, her mother called her in the living room.

Zhao Meimei went out to drink a glass of milk, and was dragged by her mother to wash her hair, blow dry her hair, and when she returned to the bedroom, it was almost ten o'clock.

It's still quiet in the phone, no text messages, no calls.

Zhao Meimei was inexplicably irritable for a while, she directly stuffed the textbooks into her bag, turned her head and lay on the bed to stand up, at first she was going to think about something, but when she really lay on the bed, she found that her head was blank, and her freshly washed hair was very soft and comfortable, and she was a little sleepy when she was lying down.

The phone rang, not a text message, but a phone call.

Zhao Meimei hurriedly got up and connected: "Hey, brother." ”

The background sound in the phone is quiet, not quite lively just now.

"Why?"

Zhao Meimei held her mobile phone and lay on the bed: "Lie down." ”

"So early?"

Zhao Meimei moaned without illness: "My head hurts, I am upset, brother, why don't you reply to my text message?" ”

A belly of evil fire tried to escape.

"The stars are so beautiful tonight, can you see them?"

Star?

Zhao Meimei suddenly became interested, there was no window in her bedroom, and if she wanted to see outside, she had to go to the balcony.

Zhao Meimei opened the bedroom door, the living room was empty, and the voice of her parents talking came from the master bedroom, the topic was very heavy, and they chatted very devotedly.

Zhao Meimei tiptoed to the balcony and gently closed the door.

Zhao Meimei looked up at the night sky, it was indeed full of stars, and there was a full moon in the sky, which was unique.

Zhao Meimei exhaled, feeling the feeling of blockage in her heart dissipate a little, and said with a smile: "It's very good-looking." ”

"How pretty?"

Zhao Meimei tilted her head and looked at the brightest stars in the sky seriously: "I can't tell." ”

"Is it good to look at the top or good at the bottom?"

Below?

Zhao Meimei subconsciously lay on the balcony and looked down, and at a glance, she saw a pitch-black downstairs, shooting out a bright white light, like a flashlight.

Zhao Meimei's narrow eyes widened suddenly: "Brother? ”

In the mobile phone, laughter rang out at the same time as downstairs.

Clear, close to the ear, the sound drilled down the eardrum into the ear canal, scratching the ear wall all the way into the heart.

Distant, vague, like a soft sigh, quickly dissipates in the air, and no trace can be captured.

Zhao Meimei pressed her throat and screamed in surprise: "Brother! You wait for me! ”

A soft voice came from the phone: "Slow down when you go downstairs!" ”
