Cui Fengming waited for several days without waiting for news from Chunxiu, and just when he was extremely disappointed, Chunxiu called him. Cui Fengming was very happy to receive a call from Chunxiu, Chunxiu said that he wanted to meet Cui Fengming, Cui Fengming was begging, and the two agreed on the time and place to meet on the phone.

Not far from the main gate of Zhongshan Park, there stands a tall stone archway, which is eye-catching with the four big characters of defending peace, and in front of the archway is a well-arranged flower bed. A well-proportioned middle-aged woman in a cheongsam stood on the edge of the flower bed with a child, the woman was Chunxiu, she looked around anxiously at her watch from time to time. Her child was chasing butterflies up and down beside the flower beds. After a while, she saw Cui Fengming walking towards them in big strides.

Cui Fengming stood in front of Chunxiu, he looked at Chunxiu affectionately and said, "Sister Chunxiu, I'm here." ”

Chunxiu was excited when she saw Cui Fengming coming from a distance, and when she looked up at Cui Fengming, there were tears in her eyes. Chunxiu touched Cui Fengming's empty sleeve with her hand and said distressedly: "Fengming, you were good when you left, why did you lose an arm when you came back?" I really feel sorry for you! Chunxiu whimpered.

Cui Fengming involuntarily grabbed Chunxiu's hand and said excitedly: "Sister Chunxiu, it's nothing if I don't have an arm, if I throw my life on the battlefield, I won't have a chance to see you again!" You have made me so hard in the past few years, I think about you every day! ”

"Alas! Why shouldn't I! Chunxiu sighed, called the child who was playing to the side and said, "Yonghe, an uncle sees that we are coming." ”

Yonghe politely called Cui Fengming uncle. Cui Fengming saw that this little boy looked very cute, so he picked him up with one arm and kissed him hard, Yonghe reluctantly avoided his face and said, "Ouch! Uncle's beard hurts so much! ”

Cui Fengming smiled and put Yonghe on the ground. He touched Yonghe's little tender face and said, "What are you afraid of? If you are a man, you will have a beard, and you will grow a beard when you grow up. ”

Yonghe said in disbelief: "You liar! Who said a man has to have a beard? My dad didn't have a beard. ”

"Am I lying? Why should I lie to you? Where are there men who don't grow beards? The child's words made Cui Fengming not know how to explain.

Chunxiu sternly said to Yonghe: "Children, don't talk nonsense! Yonghe didn't dare to respond.

Cui Fengming pulled Yonghe with one hand and said to Chunxiu: "Not far in front is 'Come to Jinyuxuan', let's go there and sit, I invite you to tea." We haven't seen each other in years, so we chatted over tea. ”

"Okay." Chunxiu agreed.

The three of them sat down in front of a shady tea house, the waiter came over and asked what kind of tea to drink, Cui Fengming asked for a pot of flower tea and asked for some snacks and sweets for Yonghe. After a while, the waiter put the things Cui Fengming ordered on the table.

Cui Fengming sat on the chair with a smile on his face, and he carefully looked at the Chunxiu in front of him. Chunxiu wore a black short-sleeved tight-fitting cheongsam, and her exposed arms were like two white and smooth lotus roots; Perhaps because she has become a mother, Chunxiu is a little blessed, and her body that is outlined by the cheongsam is much plumper than before; Her face was plump, her eyebrows were carefully painted, and her curly black hair was draped over her shoulders; She carries a delicate kun watch on one wrist and a gold bracelet on the other; The whole person sat down and exuded a sense of wealth and nobility, Cui Fengming felt that Chunxiu had changed a lot, the only thing that hadn't changed was Chunxiu's eyes, her eyes were still as clear as before, which made people feel that they could be trusted and relied on.

"Sister Chunxiu, I couldn't have imagined the way you look now, I couldn't have imagined it a few years ago, it's changed too much!"

Chunxiu smiled faintly: "I'm actually still the peasant woman from Shandong." ”

"Sister Chunxiu, how have you come over the past few years? Can you tell us about your family and the man you are now? ”

"Is this necessary?"

"Sister Chunxiu, I want to know this, you must tell me!" Cui Fengming said stubbornly.

Chunxiu looked at Cui Fengming's straight face and smiled happily: "You are still the same as before, you will play a child's temper in front of me!" ”

"Who made you my sister! I'm unreasonable when I see my sister! Cui Fengming also smiled.

Chunxiu saw a few children playing with leather next to the tea house, so she said to Yonghe: "Yonghe, mom and uncle have something to say, you can play with those children for a while." ”

When Chunxiu saw her son leaving, she asked Cui Fengming with a smile: "Let me ask you first, why were you drunk in Juxian Tower that night?" ”

Cui Fengming asked rhetorically: "Sister Chunxiu, why am I drunk, don't you know yet?" ”

"Is it because I haven't talked to you that you're angry?"

Cui Fengming admitted: "Yes, I think you have made Mrs. Kuo look down on me, and forget the relationship between our sisters and brothers!" ”

"It's more than that, right? You ate peanut peel vinegar that day to get drunk, right? ”

"This?" Cui Fengming was reluctant to answer, looking at Cui Fengming's embarrassed appearance, Chunxiu seemed very happy.

"Feng Ming, in fact, I ignored you that day but made love to the peanut skin just pretending, just to be angry with you!"

Cui Fengming asked unhappily: "Why are you angry with me with this old thing of peanut skin, I won't get drunk because of this!" ”

"I ask you, when you said you loved me, why did you run away when you saw me after that night like a mouse and a cat? You said you wanted to protect me from being bullied by peanutskin, but why did you leave Beijing? You clearly want to cut ties with me! Do you know how sad I was at the time? Chunxiu sighed and continued: "Since you asked me how I have been here in the past few years, it is sad to talk about it. Okay, so I'll start when you dodge my bad sister. ”

Chunxiu said Cui Fengming with a big red face in the first sentence, and he hurriedly poured tea for Chunxiu to hide his embarrassment. Chunxiu slowly recalled the events of the year with red eyes, and Cui Fengming listened silently. When Chunxiu talked about being evicted by the landlord because he couldn't pay the rent, he was already in tears and couldn't speak. Cui Fengming was also very sad, he looked at Chunxiu's appearance and suddenly remembered the scene when he and Chunxiu were drinking in a tavern that year, Chunxiu was also crying at that time, he felt that Chunxiu's crying was very pitiful, he felt a sour feeling in his heart, and he wanted to sit next to Chunxiu and hug her and comfort her, just like that time in the tavern; But at this time, Chunxiu thought that he was a wife, Cui Fengming didn't dare to make a mistake, he just raised his ass and sat down again.

Chunxiu stopped talking, she pointed to Yonghe who was playing on the side and said softly: "When I was homeless, I was pregnant with this child again, I was looking for a job with this big belly every day, and no boss was willing to use me, so I had to ask for food, and I was embarrassed to die during that time!" If it weren't for this child, I would have the heart to die! ”

Cui Fengming asked in surprise, "Sister Chunxiu?" Did you have this child before you got married? ”

"Yes."

"So your current husband isn't the child's real father?"

"That's right! That Boss Su is Yonghe's stepfather, but Yonghe's kid doesn't know. ”

"Who's the child's father?" Cui Fengming asked with a vinegar taste.

Chunxiu didn't answer the question right away, she picked up the cup and sipped the tea.

"Whose child is Yonghe? You tell me! Cui Fengming asked to the bottom of the matter.

"Feng Ming, don't be surprised if I say it!"

"Hmm."

Chunxiu tried her best to control her emotions, she looked at Cui Fengming and said softly, "Fengming, you have been a father for five years!" Yonghe is the seed you left behind that night. ”

"Huh? Yonghe is my son! Cui Fengming was surprised and delighted when he heard this, and he almost jumped up from his seat.

Chunxiu hurriedly dissuaded: "Be quiet, don't let Yonghe hear!" ”

Cui Fengming looked at Chunxiu excitedly, and then turned his head to look at Yonghe, who was playing in the distance, and a very wonderful feeling arose in his heart. Am I a dad? It's not a dream, is it? He slapped himself hard in the face, and when he felt the pain, he realized that he was not dreaming. A man has been a father, and he has been a father for five years in a daze, this son is like falling from the sky to Cui Fengming!

Cui Fengming impulsively sat down beside Chunxiu and took her hand and said, "Chunxiu, since this child belongs to the two of us, let's get married!" The three of us are truly a family. ”

Chunxiu took Cui Fengming's hand away and said, "Don't do this! It's not good for children to see. ”

Cui Fengming had to sit back to the old place.

"Actually, when I was pregnant, I always hoped that you could come back and marry me, but I was a few years older than you and had a man before, and I patted you to look down on me in my heart, I am not sure what to do? Later, I really couldn't wait for you, so I married this Boss Su. It's also fate, if it weren't for Boss Su and his wife who saved me, you wouldn't be able to see our mother and son now. ”

Cui Fengming pleaded: "Sister Chunxiu, I have never let go of you in my heart, didn't I come back?" Come back to me! ”

"Actually, I still have to blame you, why did you avoid me when you loved me in the first place? Why leave Beijing? Now that I'm someone else's daughter-in-law, it's too late! Chunxiu looked at Cui Fengming with complaining eyes.

"It's not too late! I was young and ignorant at the time, and I didn't know what love was, and I didn't know how to take responsibility when I did it, but then I understood, and I knew that the woman I wanted was you! I know that without you, my life is wasted! I swore that I would find you, if you didn't marry, I would wait for you for several years, I wouldn't let go when I saw you, I must pull you back to me! Cui Fengming explained eagerly.

"Feng Ming, don't get too excited! Now that the raw rice has been cooked and the rice is irretrievable, the reason why I brought Yonghe this child today is to let you see your own son, if I hide the child's affairs from you, I will be sorry for you! I don't think we should have any contact from now on, if any more contact will have a bad impact on you, me and my children, and I don't want your peaceful life to be disrupted by you. ”

Cui Fengming was anxious: "Sister Chunxiu, we both have Yonghe, a child, why are the feelings and thoughts of each other for so many years gone?" I don't do it! The first time you married a tuberculosis, now you are married to an old man and a second room, have you ever been truly happy? Only I can truly love you, and only I can give you happiness! Sister Chunxiu, you already gave me your heart and body that night, have you forgotten? I'll never forget it anyway! ”

Cui Fengming's words talked about Chunxiu's sore spots, is my marriage happy? Chunxiu knew this very well, she lowered her head and rubbed her hands and stopped talking. Cui Fengming's Chunxiu was a little shaken, so he sat beside her and begged: "Sister Chunxiu, you divorce that old man!" After liberation, the government's policy is monogamy, you are a second room and your husband is more than 20 years old, and the government will definitely support divorce when you mention it! ”

Chunxiu looked at Cui Fengming helplessly and sighed and said, "People are kind to me, how can I open my mouth to mention divorce?" Don't let anyone point at my backbone and scold! There are women who are better than me, but I am already a broken flower and a willow is not worth your pursuit! ”

"Sister Chunxiu, I only love you alone, if you don't divorce, I'll wait for you, and I'll wait for you until you get divorced."

"So what if I don't get a divorce for the rest of my life?"

Cui Fengming replied categorically: "Then I won't get married for the rest of my life!" ”

Chunxiu smiled bitterly and said, "Fengming, why bother? Sister really can't help you! ”

Chunxiu saw Yonghe running over at this time, so he asked Cui Fengming to quickly sit back in his original seat.

Yonghe had a lot of fun just now, his face was sweating, Cui Fengming took out a handkerchief to wipe his face, Yonghe hurriedly dodged, he said let his mother wipe his face.

"Drink! You kid has a lot of personality! Cui Fengming said with a smile.

Chunxiu wiped Yonghe's face, Cui Fengming looked at Yonghe carefully, and he tried his best to find his traces on the child's face. In the observation, he really saw that Yonghe had a lot of similarities with himself, and Cui Fengming felt a sense of happiness in his heart. He said to Chunxiu very proudly: "This child is indeed like his father!" ”

Chunxiu smiled and said, "Can't be wrong! Wrong replacement! ”

Yonghe heard the two adults say that they looked like their father, so they said, "I am my father's son, of course I look like my father!" ”

"Yes! Yonghe is right! Yonghe is so smart! Wang Hongju laughed happily after speaking, his heart was full of pride as a father, he hugged Yonghe to his lap at once, and kissed the child's white and tender face fiercely.

Yonghe kicked his calves and shouted, "Oh, uncle is stabbing people with his beard again!" ”

Cui Fengming deliberately pricked Yonghe's face a few more times with his beard, and when he saw Yonghe hiding his head in his arms, he put the child on the ground beautifully.

"Uncle is so bad!" Yonghe said and ran back into his mother's arms.

After drinking a few more cups of tea, Chunxiu said that he still had some things to do and couldn't sit for a long time, Cui Fengming felt that he hadn't told Chunxiu why he had come, and he had to reluctantly stand up when he saw that Chunxiu was leaving. The two were about to break up after walking out of Zhongshan Park, Cui Fengming avoided Yonghe and asked Chunxiu softly when they would meet again, although Chunxiu said that she didn't want to see Cui Fengming again, but her feelings for Cui Fengming were still broken, she hesitated, and then took out a business card from her handbag and handed it to Cui Fengming's hand and said: "Take this well, there is contact information on it, I will check out at the pharmacy every evening." You can come to me at the pharmacy and pretend to buy medicine. Today I saw you secretly, I am afraid that the child's mouth is not closed, and I will not take him to see you in the future, please understand. ”

Cui Fengming said helplessly: "Of course I understand. ”

The pharmacy that Chunxiu was going to was in Dongcheng, and Cui Fengming insisted on sending Chunxiu a little way. Cui Fengming and Chunxiu Yonghe went out from the east gate of Zhongshan Park and went east through the square in front of the Forbidden City's noon gate and walked along the Dongjiazi River to the Donghua Gate. Along the way, there are city walls, octagonal towers, tube rivers, weeping willows, the scenery is very beautiful, and the slanting sun in the afternoon dyes the surrounding scenery golden yellow. Cui Fengming walked side by side with Yonghe and Chunxiu in one hand, they talked and laughed, like a happy family.
