Chapter 100: The so-called love

As for my dad's side, I deliberately didn't want to pay attention to it.

It doesn't matter if I'm cold, or if I'm ruthless, he treats our mother like that three times and twice, in my heart, he is no longer my father.

So, these days, I have been going to and from school as always, occasionally helping my mother take care of the business of the store, and I don't listen to anything over there.

My mother sometimes wanted to ask Zhang Xiaofei's mother about the situation, but she would look at my face and see that I was noncommittal, so she didn't dare to ask.

The days went by, and on the evening of the fourth day after the incident, my grandparents came to find me.

In the end, it is my own son, although my grandmother is sometimes very mean to my father, but after the accident, I can see that my grandmother is really thin, and she is not as arrogant as before, and she is a lot haggard.

As for my grandfather, he was so thin that he was about to lose his shape.

As soon as the two old men walked to the store, they found an empty table and sat down, and my grandfather waved his hand to talk to me, but he couldn't make a sound.

Seeing this, I sighed, took two glasses of juice, and placed them in front of them.

My grandmother picked up a glass of juice and drank it all, and my grandfather drank most of the glass quickly, before the two old men began to talk.

"Xiao Jiang." The first to speak was my grandfather, "I know you have an opinion about your father, and I also admit that your father does something wrong many times, but no matter what, he is also your biological father, who has raised you for more than ten years, and has hugged you and loved you when he was a child, you are his first child, how happy he was when you were born, I and your grandmother have seen it with our own eyes, and when it comes to it, your father's most painful child is you." ”

"Yes, yes, that's it, your dad loves you the most, if you don't save him, you are a white-eyed wolf, a beast." My grandmother was next to me and muttered.

My grandfather quickly pulled her arm and looked at me worriedly, "Xiao Jiang, don't listen to your grandmother's nonsense, if you are willing to save your father, you can help, if you don't want to, your grandparents will not force you, after all, your father has done so many things that make you sad, he deserves it." ”

I was stunned.

If my grandparents really cried and shouted for me to save my dad as soon as they came up, I would definitely refuse decisively.

But my grandfather was so sensible, he first told me how my father loved me when I was a child, and then told me that it was okay to save it or not, but I couldn't say it decisively and refused.

After a moment of silence, I whispered, "Grandpa, it's not that I can't save me when I see death, it's really that I can't help anything, you said you want money, Widow Zhang still lives in a small western-style building over there, and the two of them don't pay for it, so let me pay, isn't it a bit too much?" If you want to talk about connections, what connections can I have as a high school student? Right, grandpa. ”

"I don't ask you for money, I have it with your grandmother." My grandfather said anxiously, "Your grandmother and I have been farming for so many years, and we don't have any expenses, so we still have some money in our hands." Now the key is that Zhang Hu slandered your father as the mastermind, and your father can't come up with evidence to prove that he is not the mastermind, and the two sides have been deadlocked. ”

Although I really want to say: That's what my dad deserves, who made him red-eyed for money, dare to do any dangerous work.

But looking at my grandfather's ravine-ravine face, cloudy and worried eyes, I couldn't say these words anymore.

After pondering for a long time, I suggested in a low voice, "Grandpa, this matter, you give me some time, I can think about what to do, but I won't go back, if I can figure out a way, I will tell you, if I can't think of it, don't force me, after all, you have no way, what can I do." ”

"Okay, okay." My grandfather nodded again and again, "Xiao Jiang, you are a good boy, I don't want to force you, grandpa is desperate, there is no way." ”

After speaking, seeing that my expression was not moved, my grandfather sighed and pulled my grandmother to stand up, "Then Xiaojiang, think about it, I will go back with your grandmother first, and the matter of losing money is not over yet." ”

My grandmother was a little reluctant, probably because she didn't expect to come in vain, "How can this be, that's also her own father, how can you say that you don't care about it, no matter how bad it is, you have to give some money, their shop is so rich." ”

"You're enough for the old woman." My grandfather glared at my grandmother, and then pulled her out of Alley 7 hard.

Seeing that they were about to leave, I raised my voice and shouted, "Grandpa, my father's small building, and the things in the small building, all the things that should be sold have been sold, everyone is gone, what are you doing with so many things." ”

My grandfather was shocked when he heard this, and the pace of his departure became faster and faster.

At some point, my mother walked up to me and looked at the backs of my grandparents, looking a little stunned, but she didn't speak.

I glanced at my mom and lowered my head to do my homework.

When it got dark, my mother fried the vegetables, and my mother ate it briefly, counted the accounts of Qixiang, and went back to the rental house.

"Our rent is almost due." My mom pushed open the door and suddenly said something.

I blinked, and my mind was quickly activated.

These days, I have gradually felt that the rental house is cramped and short, and I have long been thinking about renting a better place to change the living environment for my family.

Although it is impossible to rent a small western-style house as arrogantly as my father, an ordinary suite is no problem.

So I naturally took my mother's words, "Mom, let's not renew the rent here, and now that the family is making money, let's rent a better place to live." ”

In the dark, my mother groped her way into the house and turned on the light, but did not speak.

After a few moments, there was a "pop", the light came on, and my mother threw the key in front of the bed, turned around, closed the door, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Rent if you want." My mother lowered her head and said, "Anyway, the passbook is in your hand." ”

I nodded, took off my pants, and went to boil some hot water to wipe myself.

Suddenly, Shen Bi tugged on my arm, leaned over, and whispered, "Sister, Mom's mood is a little wrong, it seems to be ...... It's like crying......"

I was stunned, and when I turned around, I saw my mother curled up at the head of the bed, her thin body trembling, not crying.

"Mom." I felt sorry for her, so I quickly put down the hot water on the stove and ran to the bedside, "Mom, what's wrong with you?" Why did you cry all of a sudden? ”

My mom won't reply to me.

I thought about what happened today, and felt that the only thing that could cause my mother's mood to change was the visit of my grandparents, and I couldn't help but hesitate, "Is it because my grandparents want me to save my father?" Mother...... Blame me for not being able to save me? ”

My mom's shoulders shrugged even more, and there was a faint whimper.

"Mom." Shen Bi cried out a little unhappily, "What do you want my sister to do?" Are you desperate to save your dad? Do you contribute all the money we earn? How exactly do you want your sister? ”

"Shen Bi." I scolded her, turned my head, and said in a light and solemn tone, "Mom, this matter, it's really not that I can't save it when I see death, it's really powerless, the matter of the police station, is it you and I can take care of it?" ”

Besides, in my selfish heart, I really don't want to care, and I don't want to get involved in any things.

As if hearing the disappointment in my tone, my mother suddenly straightened up and looked at me with tears streaming down her face, "Xiao Jiang, Mom doesn't blame you... Mom hates herself, even if she knows that she shouldn't care about him, he is so bad, and he is so ruthless to our mother and daughter. But I still can't control myself, I just want to know if he's okay. He's good, I'm not good, that's all. He's not good, I'm good, I feel so uncomfortable. I know I'm so cheap, but I just can't control myself, Xiao Jiang, I'm so disappointed in myself now, why can't I control my love for him? Why? ”

In the dim light, my mother tilted her head, tears falling down her cheeks.

She looked at me with a sad expression, looking at me with a look of despair in confusion, and she said, "Xiaojiang, why can't I not love your father?" When will I hear from him without the slightest emotion? When will I not be so cheap? ”

I don't know.

I knew my mom loved my dad, but I never knew she loved my dad so much, and she loved him so much that she would be happy as long as he was good.

Although this is silly in my eyes, I can't lash out at my mother's pure feelings.

I could only sit beside her, gently pat my mother's shoulder, and comfort her in a low voice, "Mom, it's not shameful to love someone, but you have to see clearly what kind of person you love, and you also have to see clearly, whether he still loves you or not, if he has let go, why do you continue to be difficult for yourself?" ”

My mom covered her face and cried for a long time before she slowly stopped sobbing.

I took the roll of paper from Shen Bi's hand, tore it to the size of a palm, and handed it to my mother one by one.

My mother vented and felt much better, and after wiping away her tears and snot, she smiled at me and said apologetically, "I'm sorry Xiaojiang, I lost my temper and said these things to you two children...... Really...... Xiao Jiang, don't take those words seriously, continue to be yours as you want to continue, don't be influenced by your mother. ”

"It's okay Mom, it's okay to say it, so that you can slowly let it go." I have a point.

My mother's eyes darkened for a moment, "I hope so." ”

After saying that, she urged me and Shen Bi to wipe our bodies, and she lay on the bed, looking at the dark night sky outside through the window with her two eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

I saw that the water was boiling, poured it out and put it in a basin, scooped up cold water again, mixed it with a similar temperature, soaked it in a towel, and then wrung it out to wipe the sweat off my body.

After everything was cleaned up, I changed into clean clothes, took two coins, and slowly walked out of the rental house.

"Sister, why are you going?" Shen Bi asked me while stretching out her head while changing clothes.

"Something." I smiled, turned two corners, found the nearest phone booth, threw two coins into it, and dialed Mr. Ji's number.
