Saying goodbye to new friends for the time being, Su Li went back to the dormitory and put the homework brought back from the classroom into her grandmother with a canvas bottom, and carried the backpack with the pear blossom non-landing pattern on the front on her shoulder, locked the dormitory door, and took the No. 9 bus from the door to the bus station. Their school, out of the school gate, there is a direct bus to the station, the transportation is convenient and fast. The terminal of the No. 9 bus happens to be the bus terminal, which is the most common bus made by Su Li.

At this time, the price of the ticket has not risen significantly, Su Li used a quarter of the price of the later generations, only spent 20 yuan to buy the latest bus ticket to Shuwang County, half past one o'clock, Su Li sat by the window, through the window, staring at the backward scenery outside the window, familiar and strange and long-term memories outlined, plumping her gradually forgetting the sealed memories, and her thoughts gradually drifted away.

Twenty yuan is not a small amount for her poor family at this time, at least, it is enough for Su Li to have more than enough food for a week. Yes, in order to save money, starting from being admitted to Jincheng High School, in general, Su Li doesn't go home often, but mostly saves time to study against time, and only goes back when she takes advantage of the big vacation.

Shuwang County is on the eastern edge of Jincheng, starting from Jincheng, it takes two or three hours to walk to Shuwang County. Shuwang County is not Su Li's destination, her home is in a more remote corner of Shuwang County, from Shuwang County, there is only one bus to the small township called Shuangliu, back and forth between the two, Su Li's home is in the front of the mountain range under the jurisdiction of this backward small township, the remote and poor mountain village called Sujia Village.

Shuwang County is not developed, the road leading to Shuangliu Township in Shuwang County is even more hopeless, the bus is shaking and bumping on the bumpy road, and Su Li, who has never healed the body, is dizzy, the old car eliminated from the big city, the heavy smell of gasoline smokes Su Li nausea and uncomfortable, Su Li leaned on the dilapidated seat of the bus, almost constricted into a ball, restrained the body's reaction from time to time with a strong reason, but the stomach that had not eaten was nothing to spit out.

Finally, after nearly an hour of bumpy buses, the bus finally drove into the terminal and stopped diagonally opposite the town middle school at the intersection of the two main roads in Shuangliu Town. At this time, Shuangliu Town, a remote and backward town, does not have the spare funds to build a station for this only public car. This situation, in Su Li's memory, lasted until she paid off all her foreign debts and came back to pick up her parents.

Supporting her weak body and carrying her schoolbag on one shoulder, Su Li moved off the bus with her weak legs and feet.

"Aribao."

The familiar call came to his ears, so that Su Li suddenly cheered up, and looked in the direction from which the sound came, Su Li saw a very familiar and simple smiling face, under the reflection of the sunset, the burly figure standing in front of the 28 bicycle parked on the street corner, it was so warm and reassuring. Su Li's eyes instantly heated, tears lingered in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth to restrain it from slipping down.

It's a dad, a dad who is physically fit and fit; It's not the dad who remembers, with one arm down, limping, emaciated, and a rickety body; It's the dad who laughs heartwarmingly, not the dad who looks bitter and lonely, disheartened, and reluctant to smile in his memory.

The accident had not yet happened, and her father, who was at the peak of his life, walked towards her with a firm and consistent step; The tall and strong figure that has been honed by hard work has left only the grinding of labor on his forehead, the tail of his eyes, and his cheeks.

"Abba!" Su Li let out a trembling voice and trotted quickly in the direction that her father ushered in. threw himself into Abba's arms and said nostalgically: "Abba, I miss you so much." ”

She misses Abba, thinks about Grandma, and thinks about it for I don't know how many days. At school, she hated to put on her wings and fly to them all at once to see if they really weren't like before the accident. How good, she can be held in Abba's arms again, Abba's arms are warm and generous, before the accident happened, her father used this broad shoulders to hold up a safe sky for her and her mother, let her grow up unrestrained, and shelter her from the wind and rain.

"Abba, have you waited a long time, have you eaten?"

"Soon, Alibao, Abba has only arrived for a short time, and you came back earlier than before, and Abba didn't wait long to see you get out of the car!" hugged his daughter, Su Zhiyuan's honest face did not decrease, and the brilliant light seemed to suppress the afterglow of the sunset. The eyes under the thick ink eyebrows projected this loving concern, he took the schoolbag that his daughter hung on his shoulder with one hand, stroked the back of Su Li's head with his thick and generous palm, looked Su Li up and down, and said distressedly: "Abba and Mommy also want to be Alibao." ”

Since last weekend at the village party secretary's house to receive a call from his daughter, he and the child and her mother have been counting the days and looking forward to the girl's return, so it is easy to wait until Friday, he finished the work at home in the morning, snoring and eating, and hurried to the bus stop in the town to park the bicycle and wait. From the town to the village, more than ten miles of mountain roads, he and his wife were not at ease to let their daughter walk back alone.

"Ali Bao has lost weight, go home and let your grandma make up for it. Abba caught pheasants and hares, your grandma made a delicious one, go back and eat more! ”

"Ah Libao, are you still uncomfortable?" His baby girl's health is not very good, looking at the pale and blue little face, even if his medical skills are not very exquisite, he can see that he must have just been sick and came back from the car to suffer. It's a pity that Jincheng is too far away from their home, and they can only worry at home, and they can't do anything. Her daughters are also strong personalities, she feels sorry for them, and never reports good news but not bad news.

Su Zhiyuan raised his hand to take off the military kettle that was lying on his back, unscrewed the lid of the kettle, handed it to his daughter, and asked her to take two sips slowly.

"Abba brings water, Aribao, you drink some water and rinse your mouth, Abba takes you home!" This is the water he boiled with wolfberry, ginger slices, red dates and brown sugar to replenish his daughter's qi and blood.

"Abba, I'm okay!"

A pear treasure, Abba and Grandma's exclusive name for her. She is the only child of her parents, Grandma is thin, and Abba married for several years before she was raised, pregnant with her almost eight months ago, my mother's grandmother and her great-grandmother passed away, brought her up since childhood, the only elder who depended on each other is gone, my mother was sad and premature and dystocia, gave birth to her hemorrhage almost half of her life, and since then she has lost the ability to conceive again.

When she was born, she was just in time for the fruit on the old pear tree at home to ripen, so she got the nickname A Li. She is the baby in the hands of Abba and Grandma, and it is the life of Abba and Grandma, for fear that the pain will not be enough, Abba and Grandma always love and spoil her and call her Alibao. Even in a remote mountain village, her Abba and Aunt never disliked her for being a girl.

"Uncle, are you picking up your daughter again?" The heroic voice of the bus driver sounded, he poked his head out of the window, and traveled back and forth between Shuwang County and Shuangliu Town all the year round, as the only bus here, after a long time, he also knew the father and daughter, every once in a while, the father always came to the town early, stared at his car door with a good eye, and waited until his daughter got off the bus. No matter how many times he waited for him to go back and forth, and received his daughter, this man smiled very happily, and this cycle lasted five or six years.

But if he had such a proud daughter, he would be willing to pick her up every day. This girl is really not simple, this is a phoenix flying out of the mountains, first admitted to the county junior high school, and then simply admitted to the provincial capital Jincheng, with outstanding results, free tuition and subsidies, it is a matter of time before becoming a college student is really enviable.

"His second brother, yes, we have to walk a long mountain road back to the town, we don't have to worry about letting our daughter go back alone!" Su Zhiyuan talked to the driver with a smile, and often came to pick up his daughter, and after a long time, he also knew that the driver's surname was Cheng, and he was the second in the family.

"That's right, I don't feel at ease when I put it on me!" Family planning has been promoted, and there are fewer children. The only child in the family, even if it was a girl, looked like an eyeball

Greeted a few times warmly, the two sides parted, Cheng Lao Er dared to go to the county seat for the last round trip, and the father and daughter of the Su family also embarked on the road back to the village. Let the girl sit on the back seat of the bicycle first, Su Zhiyuan slid neatly and took two steps to get on the car from the front crossbar, stepped on the pedal, and the bicycle wheels rolled forward quickly.

Sujia Village is located in the middle of nowhere, in a large mountain pass. Just out of Shuangliu Town, there is an asphalt road, and then there is a potholed loess section, not to mention the winding and winding mountain road behind, which is even more uneven, and the most dangerous section is the edge of the cliff, and ordinary people really dare not walk.

"Ah Libao, is it upside down? Uncomfortable? With his daughter in the back seat, Su Zhiyuan rode the car very steadily, I don't know how many times he walked, where there were pits, where there were depressions, he remembered it clearly. No matter how bad the road conditions are, Su Zhiyuan, who has long been familiar with the road conditions. The potholes that can still be avoided have been avoided, and the squatting girl is no longer uncomfortable.

"Abba, I'm fine, or Abba rides the car steadily, it's more comfortable than taking the bus!" There is no strong smell of gasoline in the public car that makes her sick and sick to her stomach, and the back seat is stuffed with a thick cotton cushion, which is soft and not awkward at all, it is my mother's strong maternal love. Su Li was on the back seat of the bicycle, dragging Abba's clothes with one hand and the frame of the back seat of the car with the other, sitting firmly and reliving the haunting scene in her memory again.

Since she was admitted to junior high school in the county, Abba has been riding a bicycle to pick her up from school and return home, rain or shine. At first, I didn't know when she would come home, and I was afraid of missing her home, so Abba would come to town every holiday weekend and wait until it was dark and out of sight.
