Chapter 2 Family
Summer in S City came particularly early and hot this year. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zihan lay in a hut of less than four square meters, listening to the noisy sound of the electric fan, tossing and turning.
It's the third time I've entered the bathroom, but no, as soon as I lay down, the six-foot-long mattress was overgrown with fireballs, and after a while, the pajamas stuck to my body.
Suoxin sat up from the bed, put on a pillow, and crept into the room by the faint light.
Zihan's room, to be exact, is a folding bed less than one meter wide on the north balcony, a small desk, a small electric fan with little power, and the only scenery is the flannel curtain of light bamboo leaves in front of the window.
The temperature of the living room was almost the same as that of the balcony, Zihan hesitated, grabbed the pillow, and walked lightly to the room.
"Smack!" The dazzling light startled Zihan, and the people in the light and shadow looked at each other angrily.
Zihan ignored it, threw down the pillow, and climbed straight onto the bed.
"Stinky girl, don't sleep in my bed, go out!" The man pushed and shoved, smashing Zihan with a pillow and a faceless face.
Zihan didn't bother to answer, regardless of the man's bad words, he fell asleep by himself.
"Zimo, what's wrong!" Zheng Lan stood at the door and looked into the room.
"Not your adopted daughter yet?" Zimo said coldly angrily: "Mom, I still have to go to work tomorrow!" You know, I've always slept badly! ”
Zheng Lan sighed and said slowly: "When Zihan goes to work, there will be a dormitory in the unit, you will go first!" ”
After saying that, he went back to his room without looking back.
Then I heard the door slamming.
"I blame you! The people in the unit building have moved to a new house, we still live in this old house of more than 40 square meters, Zihan has no place to live when he comes back, this hot day, I want to let the child die of heat! Zheng Lan's voice was low but crying.
Ye Yongcheng didn't say anything, what could he say?
I have been a high school math teacher in the city's key middle school for more than 30 years, and I have always thought that my proud eldest daughter Zimo can quickly find Ruyi Langjun, but no, she is thirty years old, and she is still waiting in the boudoir, the largest of the two bedrooms is occupied by her, and the twenty-two-year-old Zihan only sleeps on the balcony.
The living room is very small, and there is a place near the south balcony as a study, and the south balcony, I don't know who designed it, is not enough to put a small bed.
After being silent for a long time, Ye Yongcheng sat up from the bed, walked to the table, smoked a cigarette from the cigarette case, touched a lighter, and smoked sullenly.
Zheng Lan lay at the head of the bed and cried lowly.
"Mom, don't let people live?" Zimo was hoarse in the room.
Zihan sat up from the bed at this time, he was too sleepy just now to hear anything.
She walked lightly to her parents' room and took her mother's hand: "Mom, don't be sad, it's all my fault!" ”
"Zihan!" Zheng Lan's tone was extremely low, full of resentment: "Don't learn from your sister, if there is a suitable one, settle down early, you must find a boy with good economic conditions and no family burden!" ”
Ye Yongcheng sat at the table and was silent.
"Mom, I'm still early! Besides, in previous years, the weather was not so hot. Mom, don't always get along with Dad! Zihan glanced at his father with pity and walked out of the room silently.
"I'm leaving, aren't you just trying to kick me out?" Zimo rushed in with a cloak, and pushed Zihan over, but Zihan didn't pay attention and sat on the floor.
"I'm a crazy girl, sometimes a little two, but I'm willing to keep your shawl and long hair, knowing that it's a fruitless future, why do you bother to tell me that your love ......" Zihan's mobile phone rang.
Zihan hurriedly got up and rushed to his room.
"Zihan, I miss you ......" In the mobile phone, Ji Ying's voice was affectionate.
"It's time to take your medicine! Alzheimer's patient, remember, never come to harass me! Zihan's anger did not subside.
turned off the phone fiercely, and Zihan fell on the bed.
Zimo didn't go out, at this time she quickly walked into her room, slammed the door, and soon, the light went out.
Zheng Lan stopped talking, Ye Yongcheng was still sitting at the table smoking, and the slight firelight flickered on and off.
Zihan kept tossing and turning in bed until dawn. The small fan swayed innocently, unable to drive away the slightest heat.
The old house is a renovated house of Ye Yongcheng's unit, it has been more than ten years, the wiring is old, the voltage is also unstable, and the room can only be equipped with two air conditioners, and it cannot be turned on at the same time. Generally, only Zimo's room air conditioner is working, and his father and mother basically use fans to cool down. Older people are not too sensitive to temperature, so it is good to get used to it, but Zihan can't stand such heat.
In the past, Zimo would also ask Zihan to put the folding bed in his room, but now, Zimo is no longer as good at talking as before.
After getting up from the bed early, rushing into the bathroom, washing and scrubbing, and taking a shower, Zihan changed into a cool shorts and pants, went into the kitchen, boiled water and cooked, and after being busy for a while, he went downstairs to buy baked cakes and fritters, and pedaled upstairs.
met Li Mei on the other side of the door, Li Mei stared at her and smiled: "It's Zihan, right?" It's really the eighteen changes of the female university, and the more it changes, the better it looks! ”
Zihan smiled and rushed upstairs.
After a while, the doorbell of Zihan's house rang ding-dong.
At this moment, Zimo sat at the table to eat, and he didn't raise his eyelids.
It's Zihan who let the people who came inside.
"Zihan's mother, do you have onions at home? My son wants to eat scallion pancakes! "It was Li Mei who entered the door, and Zihan saw her go downstairs just now.
"My Lin Yue likes to eat, no, it's the last meal here!" Li Mei sat down on the sofa without waiting for Zihan's mother to say hello, and said loudly: "Tomorrow our family will move to Sihu!" It's okay to go over and play! It's a bit reluctant to be neighbors together for so many years! ”
Zimo stared at Li Mei and ate by herself.
Zheng Lan went to the kitchen, found a dozen green onions, and handed them to Li Mei.
Without waiting for Zheng Lan to speak, Zi Mo said coldly: "Yo, Aunt Li, the villa is much more expensive than onion gold!" ”
"Where, it's just a little bigger!" Li Mei stood up in disbelief, and the corner of her eye scanned the crowded room.
I haven't been here for many years, no wonder Zimo misunderstood.
The furnishings of Zheng Lan's house are the same as ten years ago, except that there is an extra bed on the north balcony, which is more abrupt. There was only a large electric fan whirring in the living room, but it couldn't stop the heat wave.
Zheng Lan glared at Zimo, pulled Li Mei to sit down, and handed the red envelope prepared in advance to Li Mei in her hand.
"Zihan's mother, you are too polite, you don't need to give gifts, let's just get together together. Tomorrow, Paradise Waterfront Hotel, you can all come! Stuffing the red envelope into Zheng Lan's hand, Li Mei's eyebrows stretched, and she looked at Zihan who was sitting at the edge of the dining table and napping with a smile.
Without waiting for Zheng Lan to speak, Zimo said loudly: "Tomorrow I will work overtime, and Dad will go to see grandma!" ”
"Oh, it's really unfortunate, Zihan's mother, you and Zihan can get it!" Li Mei stood up, moved gently, and stepped on her high heels, immediately becoming a lot more elegant.
"Hey, Mom, don't you have to go see Grandma too?" Zimo said loudly, kicking Zihan from time to time.
Zihan remained silent. She is the youngest in this family, and now, she has no part in speaking, and her favorite thing is to speak with her fists. It should be said that Aunt Li is not bad, when she was a child, she scratched Lin Yue's head to the point of blood, and Li Mei did not come to the door to judge. Teacher Lin and Teacher Ye are in the same math group, and they are neighbors, and Li Mei is really embarrassed to do it.
"By the way, how did I forget?" Zheng Lan patted her head and hurriedly apologized.
"That's too unfortunate, Zihan's mother!" Li Mei pulled Zheng Lan to the side and said something in Zheng Lan's ear, Zheng Lan smiled and waved her hand, said a few words of thanks and apologies, and sent Li Mei out of the door.
