Chapter 14: Father and Daughter Meet

Where did the collapsed Zhang Cuilian go?

She ran all the way in the direction of seeking death, or threw herself into the river or jumped off the bridge. Anyway, I've already died once, and it's a big deal.

But she ran in the wrong direction, and she ran while crying, and she ran more and more towards the city. Unexpectedly, she ran from the suburbs of the city to the vicinity of the train station in one go, and looked at the bustling crowd Zhang Cuilian was stunned for a while.

"In such a big city, I don't even have a place to stay!" Zhang Cuilian muttered to herself, she looked at a little daughter in a red dress standing across the road. is holding his father's hand, jumping and laughing all the way.

The ghost sent the gods, and Zhang Cuilian followed. She walked to the long-distance bus stop near the train station and escaped from the more than three dollars she had been carrying in her pocket.

Bought a ticket to Linkou Town.

Sitting on the bus, Zhang Cuilian was in a complicated mood. Everything here is so familiar, just as I remember it. It's just that she doesn't know what she should say when she sees Xie Dad and Xie Mom.

The car is only an hour and a half away from the city, and Zhang Cuilian's trance seems to pass quickly.

After getting out of the car, Zhang Cuilian looked at the familiar scene in her memory. Slowly walked towards Xie's house.

The Xie family lived on a street in Linkou, which was one of the earliest asphalt roads in Linkou Town.

On this east-west road, there are bus stations, hospitals, banks, supply and marketing cooperatives, hairdressers, restaurants, a market and a tire repair shop.

The east side of the road leads to a county seat, and at the west end of the road is a provincial road running north-south. Linkou Town has a large population and a large area, and the people live a prosperous life, because it is located on the main transportation route, there are many opportunities to make a living.

It didn't take Zhang Cuilian a few minutes to walk from the bus station to Xie's house, and Xie Jun was the only person in Linkou Town who opened an auto parts tire repair shop. In his early years, after he was discharged from the army, he opened a small shop with a slightly sloping leg.

Both of them are simple people, and they are very able to endure hardships. Later, Xie Ma repaired cars and tires and sold accessories, and she was proficient in everything. There is only Zhang Cuilian, a white-eyed wolf, by the side of the two, and she has never raised a child since she left.

Zhang Cuilian stood at the door of the Xie family's shop, staring at Xie's father who was working with his back to him. In the last life, when she saw Dad Xie for the last time, the old man was already dying.

When she rushed to the hospital, Xie's father was very happy to know that her child was studying well. even showed off to the people around him that his granddaughter was in a key high school. even gave his daughter a passbook with the money he had saved for his children over the years.

Although she never treated him as his father back then, Xie Jun always treated him as his daughter.

Xie Jun worked seriously, not noticing that a young girl behind him was staring at him with tears streaming down her face.

But the people who were waiting for the car repair on the side were happy, and said secretly in their hearts: I really didn't see it, this stinky cripple still has love debts. got a big girl, and people found it.

He hugged his shoulders and bowed his head to Xie Jun and said, "Hey, old Xie." There's a big girl looking for you! What are you doing to people, crying like that! ”

Xie Jun looked up: "What's the matter?" ”

The man slammed at Nunu behind him, and Xie Jun turned his head curiously. Seeing Zhang Cuilian standing behind him, the crying pear blossoms brought rain but there was no sound.

"You, you're, Cuilian?" Xie Jun recognized it for a long time, and stood up with some surprise.

At this time, Xie's mother, who was cooking in the house, heard the movement outside and came out to take a look. Seeing Zhang Cuilian, she shouted in surprise: "Cuilian! Why are you here? ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Cuilian, looking at her tearful face and very aggrieved. Anxiously shouted: "What's the matter, why are you crying?" What's wrong? ”

Zhang Cuilian saw that Xie Ma was anxious because of her crying, and her heart ached, and she couldn't control her hugging Xie Ma and crying: "Mom! ”

That miserable 'Mom' instantly made Mama Xie burst into tears. Although she didn't know what happened to this child, she knew that Zhang Cuilian had been very wronged.

Mother Xie hugged Zhang Cuilian helplessly, and patted her back clumsily: "It's okay, it's okay!" ”

Xie Jun walked over and asked anxiously, "What's the matter, Cuilian?" What's wrong? Who bullied you? ”

The two of them stopped doing their work and led Zhang Cuilian into the house. And the driver who was watching the excitement just now also walked in, looking like he wanted to help.

If you want to say whether Xie Jun has money or not, eight out of ten in Linkou Town will say that he is rich. Why? Just because their family has a business every day, there are many car repairers, tire repairers, welders, and diesel parts.

Do you want to say that Xie Jun's daughter-in-law will live? Ten out of ten in Linkou Town will give a thumbs up and say, "Will live!" ”

Xie Jun's home is very simple, and he has opened a door to the street. Inside, there are shelves on the walls of the house, with commonly used car parts and Xie Jun's tools for repairing cars.

There was a door inside that led to the inside of the Xie family's house, and the corridor was divided into two. On the left, there is a wall of fire between the kitchen and the master bedroom, and the kang and cauldron are connected together. When cooking, the kang is burned for heating, which is a very typical northeast square design. On the other side, the room parallel to the master bedroom is Zhang Cuilian's room that is now used as a guest bedroom. In fact, their family doesn't have two guests all year round. Behind Zhang Cuilian's room, which corresponds to the kitchen, is a small warehouse.

When you go out of the main gate and enter the courtyard, you will find that this home is well organized by Xie Jun's daughter-in-law. The yard is clean and tidy, near the left is a barn, and the door of the barn is a pressure well. There is a row of chicken coops neatly placed on the wall near the right, in order to hurry up the family. The Xie family's poultry are never free-range, they are all kept in captivity in cages to feed food.

The Xie family's vegetable garden is not small, with all kinds of vegetables planted in rows and rows. At the end of the vegetable garden, on both sides of the toilet and the pigsty on the other.

The Xie family almost does not need money to buy rice, noodles and soybean oil all year round.

To eat meat, chickens, ducks and pigs are home-owned. To eat vegetables, self-sufficiency in the yard. The dried vegetables that can't be eaten are dried and pickled into pickles, and they don't cost money to take them out in winter.

It can be said that there is only one expense for the Xie family and his wife. That is for Zhang Cuilian to study, and I never knew it.

Zhang Cuilian entered the house and looked at everything familiar. The crying is even more sad and sad, not only because of the notice, but also because of the guilt of these years.

Seeing her crying like this, Xie Jun's heart was like a knife. I want to ask, but people don't say it. I want to persuade it, but I don't know how to persuade it.

When Zhang Cuilian had cried enough, she sobbed and spoke. But as soon as he opened his mouth, he said, "I'm sorry for you!" ”

didn't get to the point at all, and the hair that made Xie Jun anxious was almost gray.

"I'm sorry, Cuilian. Tell me, what's going on? What's wrong, you're running back? Where's your mother? Xie Jun's daughter-in-law greeted with concern, which made the spectators next to him stunned.

"What, aren't you her parents? How did I hear her calling you mom just now? Xie Jun's daughter-in-law glanced at Zhang Cuilian and sighed: "The two of us have no children. This was adopted by us before, and then when the child was older, her own mother came to her. We thought that their family was in the city, and the learning conditions were better than those in the countryside. Just let her go back! ”

Only now did Zhang Cuilian know that Xie Jun and his wife loved themselves so much. Why did she want to go back with her biological parents, it turned out that the real reason was for herself.

"Woooooooooooo I'm sorry for you guys! Zhang Cuilian's sorry voice made the little complaint in the hearts of the two of them disappear.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! We don't blame you, you're a kid! Mother Xie wiped her tears from the corner of her clothes, and said with a smile while crying.

"I don't know, I don't know. You've been sending me money all these years, and I, I, my mom didn't tell me... Zhang Cuilian couldn't even say anything when she cried, and explained while sobbing.

"Oh, we all know!" Xie Jun's daughter-in-law smiled bitterly: "It's okay, as long as you study well." I went to your school to inquire, and your teacher said that you are good at studying. ”

Zhang Cuilian looked up in surprise: "Have you been to the school to find me?" Then why didn't you see me? ”

Xie Jun's daughter-in-law said with a smile: "See what you are doing, delay your study again." It's okay, just know you're doing well. ”

Xie Jun watched for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Cuilian, have you been admitted to the university?" Didn't you get in? Don't cry, it's okay if you don't get in! ”

Zhang Cuilian knew that Xie Jun had always been worried that he was not admitted to university. At this time, I couldn't help but grin and cry: "I was admitted!" I was admitted to university. Woooooooooooooooo ”

When Xie Jun's daughter-in-law heard this, she immediately stood up happily and rubbed Zhang Cuilian's head excitedly. happily said: "This kid, why are you crying after being admitted." That's a good thing! ”

Xie Jun was also happy: "I've been admitted!" Hahahaha! Okay, I'll just say you'll be able to get in! ”

After speaking, he couldn't help but show off to the guests: "My kid is good at studying!" It's the top three every year, and it won't fall back! ”

The guest looked envious: "Oh, that's amazing." This time you have been admitted to university, you can also worry about it, and you will be happy in the future! ”

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Cuilian cried: "They burned my admission letter!" Ahh ”

"Huh?" Xie Jun blew up, staring in disbelief.

"Alright, alright, you get it right. Why did you burn it? Xie Jun was really angry this time, and he also believed that what Zhang Cuilian said was true. After all, she is a girl who has been raised by her side, and he knows her temperament.

Besides, seeing Zhang Cuilian breaking down and crying, I also knew that something big must have happened.

Zhang Cuilian cried and cried and told what happened during this time. Xie Jun and his family are also patient, listening to Zhang Cuilian's preface and afterwords, crying and crying as if complaining. The more I listened, the more angry I became, and the more I listened, the more sad I became.

Especially when I heard that the money they gave to their children over the years was not spent on their children. There was no single dress, I was wrapped in a school uniform every day, and I wore big cotton shoes for three years.

After being admitted to college, the Xie family didn't provide for it, and they didn't care. Zhang Cuilian can only weave curtains and paste boxes every day to earn tuition. After pouring the tuition fee and being stolen to buy a game console, the Zhang family did not teach the children a lesson, which eventually led to the burning of the notice.

When I heard that the child who had been wronged was finally slapped by his own mother. I think she almost killed her son, and everyone knows that it's too embarrassing.

Xie Jun stood up and walked out angrily and said that he wanted to ask for an explanation!
