Chapter 108: Such a Father
"Stupid, let's not go." It's almost noon, and it's almost time to reach its destination. Momo stood up suddenly, her little face frightened.
Momo's strange behavior attracted the attention of everyone in the car to her body.
"Girl, what's wrong?" Tang Shuai asked.
"Go back, let's go back." Momo said.
"Excuse me, let's change seats." Tang Shuai said to the female passenger sitting with Momo.
The other party didn't say anything, and changed seats with Tang Shuai.
Tang Shuai pulled Momo to sit down, Momo's face was very abnormal.
"Girl, what's wrong?" Tang Shuai asked.
"It's not normal up ahead." Momo said.
"Abnormal?"
"Yes, it's not normal. I don't think it's better for us not to go, and it's better to go back sooner. Momo said.
Tang Shuai's brows moved slightly, and he turned his head to look at Shu Ran. At this time, Shu Ran was also looking at Tang Shuai nervously, just now Momo said that she was going home, and Shu Ran couldn't help but get nervous. Of course, she didn't know why Momo had to go back suddenly, but she was afraid. I'm afraid that Tang Shuai doesn't care if she chooses to leave with Momo, in that case, what should she do?
Let's not talk about whether I dare to go back to see my parents alone, even if I do, what can I do? She is alone, she can deal with Zhou Dalong, and when she goes back alone, isn't she just delivering food to Zhou Dalong?
"Girl, maybe you're too sensitive to some things." Tang Shuai said: "How can this good county be abnormal? And we haven't arrived yet, how can it be abnormal. And you look at Ran Ran, now there is no one to rely on except us, if we say no matter now, then what do you want her to do? Don't you still want me to soak her in your hands? This time can be a good opportunity. If we leave halfway now, we probably won't be able to soak her, and it will make her annoying. ”
Tang Shuai was brainwashing Momo, he didn't think there was anything abnormal in Donglin County in front of him. This Momo, maybe she's too sensitive.
After hearing Tang Shuai say this, Momo was silent for more than ten seconds, and finally nodded. "Okay."
Although she agreed, her expression was always nervous. This is very different from Momo in peacetime, and Tang Shuai doesn't know what Momo is in her heart.
The right hand gently stroked her head, letting Momo rest on his shoulder.
"Girl, it's okay, I'm here."
"Hmm."
At noon, the bus drove into the station of the county seat in the east. In fact, after arriving in this Donglin County, Tang Shuai also felt a little strange. As soon as he came here, this mood became very depressing, and he couldn't say why.
"There's something strange about this county." Out of the station, the three of them walked in the county, Tang Shuai said.
"It's kind of weird." Shu Ran said: "In this broad daylight, there are not many companies that open their doors to do business. There is an open door, you see this sitting in the store, looking decadent, and has no intention of doing business, as if he has been hooked by something. ”
What Shu Ran said is not wrong, in such a large county, many shops are closed. Even if there is an open shop, the owner inside doesn't seem to have any intention of doing business. Now Tang Shuai feels that what Momo said before is not wrong, and this place is not normal. Now it seems that it is really not normal.
"Forget it, let's go to your house first." Tang Shuai said. What this county is like, whether it is normal or not has nothing to do with him. Maybe this is the case with the people in Donglin County, who are lazy. And he came mainly to help Shu Ran's family, and this other thing has little to do with him.
"yes, okay."
Shu Ran's home is in Xinglong Village, which is a long distance away from the county seat. But this county town is sparsely populated, so I finally ran into a tricycle and sat on it.
"Master, Xinglong Village." Shu Ran said.
The tricycle master was a middle-aged man in his forties, and he looked at Shu Ran and Momo, and shook his head slightly. There was a hint of regret on his face, and he didn't say anything afterward.
Tang Shuai's expression on this tricycle master was in his eyes, and he didn't understand why this tricycle master showed such an expression. But he didn't bother to ask, because he knew that even if he asked, he couldn't ask a reason. So he didn't ask at all, anyway, no matter what happened, he was confident that he could protect the two girls. So there are some things that you don't have to ask.
Because Tang Shuai didn't want to increase the psychological pressure on Shu Ran and Momo, in fact, since he came to Donglin County, he also felt that this county town was really abnormal.
Coming to the Xinglong Village brigade, the three of them got out of the car, and Tang Shuai paid.
"Ranran, what's wrong?" Tang Shuai found that after getting off the car, Shu Ran actually stood still.
"Tang Shuai, it's been ten years. I don't know if my house is still in the same place. Moreover, and ......" When he said this, Shu Ran stuttered again.
"And what?"
"And I really don't know how to face my parents, Tang Shuai. Otherwise, I won't go, I'll tell you where you are, and you can help me take a look. Having arrived here, Shu Ran retreated again.
Tang Shuai can see that Shu Ran is really nervous now. In the past I have known Shu Ran for so long, it is really the first time I have seen her so nervous. Even when she was bombed at the beginning, she didn't see her so nervous at the moment of life and death.
"Ranran, it's all here, what are you afraid of? They are your parents, can they still eat you? Tang Shuai said.
"But ......"
"Don't do it, let's go." Tang Shuai said, pulling Shu Ran and leaving.
However, after walking for a while, Tang Shuai stopped, looked at Shu Ran, and asked with some embarrassment: "That, where is your home?" ”
“……”
Shu Ran is really speechless, this guy, since you don't know the road, what are you pulling people to take?
"Come with me."
Shu Ran also knew that he couldn't hide today, so since he couldn't hide it, he wouldn't dodge. It's been ten years, and I ran away willfully, and I don't know how my parents are doing now. However, with Shu Ran's guess, it will definitely not be too good. After all, in the village back then, their family was relatively poor. And because of his escape, it is estimated that the family will not have less trouble with their parents this week.
Shu Ran led the way, bypassing a field and passing through a bamboo forest. At this time, I saw a small courtyard surrounded by a fence, and inside the courtyard was a simple brick house.
When he saw this, Shu Ran covered his mouth, and he couldn't hold back the tears. The scene here is so familiar. It's just that the former loess house has become this brick house.
However, from Tang Shuai's point of view, this brick house is also very simple.
As far as they came over just now, there are already several small western-style houses in this village, and even if there are no small western-style houses, this house is quite good from the outside. But this one is really a little sorry for the audience. Judging from the appearance of this house alone, it also shows how poor the owner of this house is.
"Ranran, they're all home, what are you still doing standing outside? Go, get in. Tang Shuai helped Shu Ran wipe her tears, and then pulled her open the fence door and walked into the courtyard.
When he came to the door of this house, he was about to knock on the door, but the door was opened. An old peasant woman walked out with a dustpan, and suddenly, she was a little surprised to see three people standing at the door of her house, except for Zhou Dalong, who was looking for trouble, who else would come to her house?
But when she saw Shu Ran, she was stunned. Her body trembled slightly, and she wanted to speak, but she couldn't open her mouth. Because she didn't know what to say anymore, her daughter had been away from home for ten years, and she thought she would never see her again. Today, Zhou Dalong came to them in the morning, saying that he had seen Shu Ran in Tiannan City.
Of course, Zhou Dalong is worthless as Shu Ran said. said that she raised men outside, what's the matter. The two elders of the Shu family didn't hear it. Because they feel that their daughter has nothing to do with them anymore.
Shu Ran's mother's name is Zhou Zhen, and her actual age is only fifty years old. When she was eighteen years old, she married Shu Ran's father Shu Zhengshan, and gave birth to Shu Ran at the age of twenty. So, now she is not very old, only fifty years old. But she looked very old, much older than her actual age.
She is like this, in Tang Shuai's opinion, this must be at least sixty years old.
"Mom." This was silent for more than a minute, and finally Shu Ran broke the silence.
With a "snap", the dustpan in Zhou Zhen's hand fell to the ground.
"Shu Ran, is that you?" She really couldn't believe that Shu Ran, who had been away from home for ten years, would suddenly go home.
"Mom, it's me." Shu Ran hurriedly supported Zhou Zhen.
"You're back, you're back. Old man, come out, come out, my daughter is back. Zhou Zhen shouted to the room with some excitement.
Soon, an old man who looked to be in his sixties came out, with gray hair and deep eyes, which depicted the vicissitudes of time.
This is Shu Ran's father, Shu Zhengshan. And seeing his father, Shu Ran's tears were really like a mountain flood bursting the embankment. After so many years, I didn't expect my father to become so old.
"Dad." Shu Ran walked in front of Shu Zhengshan and held his calloused hands tightly.
Seeing this scene, Tang Shuai and Momo glanced at each other, this family reunion is really a warm picture. But then, what happened was something that Tang Shuai and Momo didn't expect.
"Fuck off." This Shu Zhengshan is pushing Shu Ran.
Shu Ran didn't stand firm, stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Do you still have the face to come back? Get out, get out of here. I don't have a shameless daughter like you, get out of here, and don't come back. Hurry up, get out. Shu Zhengshan was very excited, and his whole body was trembling. And when he spoke, he kept stomping his feet. Seeing him like this, his determination to drive Shu Ran away is very firm.
