Jiang Guangguang also didn't eat the dish, and after standing for a while, he threw the dish directly into the trash. She was so tired of this sneaky action that she didn't know whether the other party was kind or malicious, and when she returned to the house, she called the aunt she had invited before, asking her to come and take care of the trouble.

The aunt is not far away, and it takes about twenty minutes to walk. Jiang Guangguang occasionally kisses her to take care of the little guy when he has something.

She helped bring the little one when he was very young, and she was very indulgent to the little one.

After making the call, Jiang Guangguang called the little guy up, dressed him, and rinsed his mouth with him. Tell him that he has something to do today, and Grandma Qin will take him to play later.

The little guy was still dazed, and asked in a milky voice, "Mom, where are you going?" Can't you take the trouble with you? ”

Jiang Guangguang kissed him on the cheek and said softly: "It's noisy, mom has something to do in the kindergarten." Later, your mother will take you out for breakfast, and then go grocery shopping, and ask your grandmother to make you your favorite braised pork, okay? ”

This little guy is the same as her, no meat, no joy, vegetables don't like to eat.

As soon as he heard that there was food, the little guy's eyes lit up immediately, but he was still reluctant, and said, "Then Mom, you will come back early." ”

Jiang Guangguang nodded. A soft voice answered with a good word.

Waiting for the two of them to finish dressing and washing, Aunt Qin had already come over. It didn't rain outside, and the little guy yelled for soy milk fritters, so the three of them went to the breakfast shop near the vegetable market to eat.

The people in this small town are industrious, although it is still early at this time, but it is lively, and all kinds of shouts are endless.

When the fuss came out, he had already forgotten that his mother was going to leave him to Grandma Qin, and after eating something and going to buy vegetables, he ran to the store opposite. Jiang Guangguang was very generous today, letting him look at this and that, but when she said that she bought it, she smiled and shook her head.

The little guy was full of interest at first, and after being rejected several times in a row, he flattened his mouth and opened his hands to ask Aunt Qin to hug him.

This little guy is very cute, Aunt Qin is a little unbearable, and tentatively said to discuss with Jiang Guangguang: "Why don't you buy one?" ”

Jiang Guangguang shook his head and said, "He already has a lot of toys at home. ”

In the matter of educating children, Aunt Qin will not go against Jiang Guangguang. She also knew that the little guy had a lot of toys at home, so she patted and coaxed the little guy.

The little guy still looked sullen, Jiang Guangguang looked at the time and said, "You take him back first." I'll go to the kindergarten. ”

Aunt Qin was puzzled and asked, "Isn't it the weekend today?" ”

Jiang Guangguang smiled and said, "I was delayed by this little guy yesterday, and there are still some things that have not been done. ”

Aunt Qin nodded and said with concern: "Then go quickly, go early and come back early." I'll make lunch and wait for you, it may rain on this day. ”

Jiang Guangguang responded with a hello, and Aunt Qin did not delay her, so that the trouble would say goodbye to her. The little guy was still making trouble, and he was lying on Aunt Qin's shoulder and refused to move.

Jiang Guangguang did not force him. I kissed him on the forehead, said that my mother would come back in a while, and then left.

Jiang Guangguang's figure quickly disappeared into the noisy crowd, but she did not go back to the kindergarten, but went back to the back door of the store from another path.

During the time she received the gift, she did not fail to inquire with the owner of the store. But no one paid attention to who bought what. After all, there are so many guests every day, who would notice.

On two occasions, the boss remembered, but he wasn't the one to talk about. The two times they bought things were girls.

Jiang Guangguang quickly entered the store and said something to the proprietress who was sorting out the shelves in the back, but the proprietress was quite cheerful, and it didn't take long for a red worker vest to come out, and gave Jiang Guangguang a baseball cap by the way.

Jiang Guangguang smiled and said thank you, and then while paying attention to the place where the little guy was yelling for toys before, he helped the proprietress sort out the goods.

After waiting for half an hour, no one came. Jiang Guangguang's brows furrowed, and just as he was about to leave, a little girl who looked like a student walked towards the toy area.

Jiang Guangguang swept over intentionally or unintentionally, and the little girl looked at the toy area for a while. I took the two toys that the little guy was asking for before, and walked in the direction of the cash register.

The proprietress immediately looked at Jiang Guangguang. Jiang Guangguang quickly changed his clothes, handed them to the proprietress, and said in a low voice: "If I don't come back for a while, you can call him and tell him." ”

She had already prepared a card with a phone number in her hand, and the proprietress hesitated for a moment and said yes.

The cash register was not crowded, and at this moment, the little girl had already paid and walked outside with her toy.

It was already drizzling outside, and the little girl had an umbrella and walked all the way to the south.

The little girl looked at this and asked like and that all the way, Jiang Guangguang didn't dare to follow too closely, so he followed so far away. For fear of being exposed, I pressed the brim of my hat low and bought a lot of things along the way.

After walking the whole street, the little girl stopped asking this and that. Walk down the alley behind the market.

Behind the market is the elementary school, and on weekends it is deserted. Jiang Guangguang's heart was raised, and he was even more cautious.

I don't know if it's because it's cold here or what, she feels a little depressed inexplicably, and her heart is empty and painful.

When I walked into the depths of the alley, there was a man standing in the alley with a black umbrella. Probably having been paid earlier, the little girl handed him the bag and hopped away.

Although the man was holding an umbrella and couldn't see his face clearly, his posture was familiar to her. Jiang Guangguang's body stiffened violently, and the pile of things she was carrying in her hand fell to the ground, and she didn't realize it.

The man must have heard the commotion and looked in the direction she was standing. In the drizzle, the face was also familiar.

Probably didn't expect Jiang Guangguang to follow, Cheng Rongjian froze in place, and after a long time, he called softly: "Aei." ”

His voice was hoarse, low and deep, with many vicissitudes for no reason.

When Jiang Guangguang heard his voice, the person who was obviously tense just now suddenly smiled, the corners of his lips hooked up a little indifferent, and said lightly: "Long time no see." ”

She is detached and aloof, and her face is calm, like the person in front of her. It's just an ordinary old man.

The drizzle fell on her hair, forming droplets that slid down her cheeks and her clothes.

Cheng Rongjian was silent in the drizzle, and after a long while, he walked towards Jiang Guangguang.

Jiang Guangguang looked at him so coldly, and when she got closer, she realized that he was different. On the left side of his eyebrow, there is a faint scar, long. As you can imagine, the shock of the injury is as shocking as you can imagine.

Cheng Rongjian quickly stopped in front of Jiang Guangguang, handed her the big black umbrella in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Take it, don't catch a cold." He carried the toy bag and handed it to Jiang Guangguang.

His fingers were still slender and distinct, Jiang Guangguang was in a trance, came back to his senses, did not pick up the bag and umbrella, took a step back, pursed his lips and smiled faintly. said: "No need, don't dare to bother the second master." ”

Her tone was calm, and there was no sarcasm.

Cheng Rongjian's body stiffened, Jiang Guangguang didn't wait for him to speak, and then said: "The family is simple, so I won't invite the second master to sit down." ”

After she said this, she didn't look at Cheng Rongjian, turned around and walked in the direction she was going to. A thin drizzle fell on her, and she didn't look back.

In the alley, the umbrella that Cheng Rongjian was holding had been put away. Just standing in the rain. Jiang Guangguang's figure disappeared, and he didn't move at all.

Jiang Guangguang's body trembled slightly, and her steps were hurried and fast, until she walked out far away, and she leaned against the rain-soaked wall.

The scene just now was like an illusion, and she reached out vigorously to pinch herself, only to know that what she had just now was not an illusion. Cheng Rongjian did not die in that fire, he was still fine.

Her hands trembled so badly that she could only restrain them a little if they were clenched into fists.

The cold patch on her face gradually blurred her vision, and even she didn't know if it was rain or tears. It took a long time for her to come back to her senses. Reach out and wipe the water from your face and walk back slowly.

Standing at this moment, the strength in her body seemed to be drained, her feet were weak, and her whole person was also in a trance.

She was still sensible in the end, and went to the store to thank the proprietress before going home. Her coat was soaked, but she didn't seem to know it herself, and she only knew how to go home mechanically.

When she reached the door of the small courtyard, she cheered up. I opened the door and locked it again, and then I entered the house.

The room was quiet, and the little one should be taking a nap at this time. Aunt Qin was frying crispy meat in the kitchen when she heard the sound of the door opening and came out with a shovel. Jiang Guangguang, who saw that his hair and clothes were wet, was startled, and quickly turned off the fire and came out, asking, "Why don't you use an umbrella when it's raining?" It's cold in the rain, so it's not good if you catch a cold. ”

Jiang Guangguang squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay." ”

Aunt Qin took a dry towel and handed it to her, and said, "Hurry up and take a hot bath, I'll find out if you still have ginger at home, I'll boil some ginger soup for you and drink it while it's hot." ”

Jiang Guangguang didn't refuse, answered the sentence, looked in the direction of the bedroom, was in a trance for a moment, and then asked softly, "Are you asleep?" ”

Aunt Qin nodded and said, "I'm sleeping, I'll ask when you'll come back when you'll come back when you've had enough." I hugged and coaxed for a while and fell asleep. ”

She finished. urged Jiang Guangguang to take a bath quickly. Jiang Guangguang said yes, squeezed out a smile, and then took clean clothes and went to the bathroom.

Her whole body was cold, and even her face was wooden. After standing under the hot water for a long time, my body gradually warmed up.

She was still in a trance, and the scene in the alley was so unreal. It looked like one of her countless dreams.

Jiang Guangguang leaned against the cold tiles, and just stared at the warm yellow light with his eyes open. After a long time, he reached out and touched the water on his face and closed his eyes.

She stayed in the bathroom for a long time, until her aunt boiled ginger soup and fried the crispy meat, and saw that she was delayed in coming out, so she knocked on the bathroom door and asked, "Xiao Jiang, are you okay?" ”

There was concern in the aunt's voice, Jiang Guangguang snorted, deliberately kept his voice as usual, and said, "It's okay, I'll come out right away." ”

Auntie said again that the ginger soup had been boiled, and the footsteps gradually faded away.

Jiang Guangguang took a breath and rushed under the water indiscriminately, then took a towel to dry it and changed into clean clothes.

When he went out, there was already a bowl of steaming ginger soup on the table, and Jiang Guangguang was the most reluctant to drink this thing, even if he was a mother.

She frowned, afraid of being nagged by Aunt Qin, so she didn't dare to say that she wouldn't drink it, so she blew the ginger soup colder, and drank it all in one gulp with her breath closed.

Aunt Qin was already stewing pig's feet soup, and when she saw Jiang Guangguang finish drinking, she said, "Dry your hair and go to sleep and sweat, and I'll call you when the meal is ready." ”

Jiang Guangguang responded with a good word, rubbed his nose, and said, "I don't know if the rain can stop at night, don't go back at night, just stay here." ”

Aunt Qin occasionally comes over and lives here, and the room has always been kept. She was also worried that Jiang Guangguang would catch a cold, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call the old man later." ”

Jiang Guangguang smiled and said something to excuse you. She was going to sleep in the study, but after thinking about it, she gently pushed open the bedroom door.

The curtains are drawn. On a rainy day, the light in the house was dim, and the little one was lying on the bed, sleeping quietly.

Jiang Guangguang walked to the bed, wanting to touch the little guy's face, but he was afraid that he would make a noise to him, so he didn't move after all, just stared at the little guy's quiet sleeping face.

After looking at it for a long time, she gently exited the bedroom and entered the study opposite. There is a small bed in the study, and there are many fairy tales and bedtime stories on the small bookshelf, most of which were bought by Guo Shu.

Jiang Guangguang entered the room, but did not go to sleep immediately, but closed his eyes and leaned against the door. She didn't know how Cheng Rongjian found here. But he gave the little one a gift, and he probably already knew about it.

Jiang Guangguang was in a trance, and after a long time, his body gradually relaxed, and he walked to the side of the bed and lay down.

Even if you know, what? This child, both in the past and now, is her own child. She didn't give birth to him because of who his father was or because of any other purpose. He's just her.

The moment she saw Cheng Rongjian, she was not much shocked. Maybe subconsciously, she always believed that he was still alive. It's just that how did he escape from that fire?

Jiang Guangguang's mind was in a mess, and he closed his eyes tightly, restraining himself from thinking about anything. She fell asleep in silence.

When I woke up, it was still raining outside the window. Crackling on the window. The light in the room was very dim, and it was probably going to be dark.

Jiang Guangguang got up and found that he had some nasal congestion, which should have been a cold. Since giving birth to the little one. Her body is not as good as it used to be. Occasionally, you will catch a cold if you get cold.

She was not surprised at this, and got up with her shoes on, intending to find something to eat for a cold. When I opened the door to the study, the little one's laughter came.

The light in the living room was on, and Aunt Qin was playing with toys with the little guy, and when she saw him laughing loudly, she made a shushing gesture and said in a low voice: "Good, don't make noise to Mom." ”

The little one was silenced at once, as if he had sensed something. I looked in the direction of the study. Seeing Jiang Guangguang standing at the door, he immediately cheered, called out to his mother, and then ran towards Jiang Guangguang with his little fat legs.

Jiang Guangguang didn't hug him, touched his forehead, and said angrily: "Good, stay away from my mother, my mother has a little cold." ”

The little guy hadn't seen her for an afternoon, so he immediately looked up at his little face and said, "I'm not afraid of catching a cold." ”

Jiang Guangguang had to squat down and hug him, so he let him play with himself.

Aunt Qin had already cooked the meal, boiled the water and asked Jiang Guangguang to find cold medicine to eat, and began to serve the food.

Jiang Guangguang took the medicine and the meal was already served when she passed, so she found a place far away from the little guy and sat down.

Tonight's dish is hearty, soft and glutinous sweet but not greasy braised pork, fried crispy pork, kelp pig's trotter soup, kung pao chicken, stir-fried bacon with bamboo shoots, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Garlic cabbage.

The little guy had obviously already eaten the pot side meal, so he was not in a hurry at all, and called his mother to let Jiang Guangguang eat the braised pork, saying that it was delicious. He is quite good at sycophancy, and he called Grandma Qin to eat again. It made Aunt Qin laugh.

Although Jiang Guangguang had a cold and had to eat something light, he still couldn't resist the temptation and ate a lot of braised pork. She wanted to eat crispy meat, and Aunt Qin said that the fried things were on fire. Let her eat less. As he spoke, he served her kelp soup.

Jiang Guangguang was a little stupid, but he didn't touch it.

After eating, Jiang Guangguang peeled the fruit. The little guy gathered around her and asked curiously, "Mom, where have you been?" ”

Jiang Guangguang's hand holding the fruit knife paused slightly, and replied, "I went to kindergarten, didn't I tell you?" ”

The little guy tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "When I came back, Aunt Baozi said that you were going to play and didn't take me." ”

The Aunt Bun he said refers to the proprietress who sells steamed buns, and people are teasing him. He took it seriously.

Jiang Guangguang laughed and said, "Mom will definitely take you if she goes to play." Auntie is teasing you. ”

The little guy's mouth pursed, and he yelled that he would never pay attention to Aunt Baozi anymore.

Jiang Guangguang remembered the person in the alley, slightly distracted, and then began to continue peeling apples.

I slept a lot during the day, and the little guy slept at night, but Jiang Guangguang still didn't feel sleepy at all. She stared at the pitch-black ceiling with her eyes open until they hurt and then closed them.

She slept in the early hours of the morning, and the next day the cold got worse again. Yesterday it was just nasal congestion. Today, I have been running a runny nose.

Originally, I wanted Aunt Qin to take care of the little guy for another day, but Aunt Qin's daughter came back from out of town, and Jiang Guangguang couldn't speak. Afraid of infecting the little guy, she had to find a mask to wear.

It rained all day yesterday, and the sun came out early this morning. The air after the rain is very fresh, the leaves are green and turquoise reflecting a dazzling light, Jiang Guangguang boiled porridge for breakfast, and then took the clothes that the little guy had put for a few days out to wash.

During this time, the little guy heard the peaches being sold, so he pulled Jiang Guangguang's clothes and shouted to eat peaches.

Jiang Guangguang couldn't resist him. I had to wipe my hands and take him to buy peaches. Peaches are still a novelty, and they're just coming on the market. The hawkers used baskets to pick up the shouts of the streets and alleys.

Jiang Guangguang rarely buys this kind of newly listed thing, and she is afraid that the little guy will have diarrhea if there are too many, so she only buys a few.

Only then did the guy quiet down, holding peaches and gnawing on them, sitting on the floor covered with tatami mats and playing with the building blocks that Guo Shu bought for him.

Jiang Guangguang washed his clothes at this time.

After washing the little guy's clothes, she remembered that the quilt at home should also be taken out to dry, so she asked the little guy not to run around, and went to hug the quilt and come out to dry it herself.

As soon as she took out the quilt in the bedroom, the little one ran over with a small bag and said, "Mommy." Last time, that uncle came again. ”

Jiang Guangguang's movements paused and looked towards the little guy. The little guy's memory is quite good, and he was afraid of being taught a lesson by Jiang Guangguang, so he held up the small bag in his hand and hurriedly said, "Mom, uncle is for you this time." ”

The bag contained some cold medicine, Jiang Guangguang glanced at it, and then looked towards the door. Probably because he had already seen Jiang Guangguang, this time Cheng Rongjian didn't leave, just stood at the door.

Seeing that Jiang Guangguang didn't speak, the little guy timidly called his mother again.

Jiang Guangguang quickly retracted his gaze. He whispered to the little guy that he couldn't ask for strangers' things, let the little guy continue to play with his blocks, and continued to dry the quilt.

She paid attention to the little guy from time to time, but when she went in again to hug the quilt and came out, she saw that the little guy actually squatted at the door again.

Cheng Rongjian outside was also squatting, and he didn't know what he was talking about through the locked iron door. Jiang Guangguang was slightly stunned. Probably sensing Jiang Guangguang's gaze, Cheng Rongjian also looked up.

His eyes were just like that, and he quickly lowered his head again, not knowing what to say to the little guy, and the little guy quickly ran over.

"Mom, I didn't take anything from my strange uncle this time." I don't know what Cheng Rongjian said to him, but he was not afraid of Jiang Guangguang's anger at all, but instead raised a chubby little face to invite him.

Jiang Guangguang ignored his smug look and said, "Mom remembers that Mom taught you not to talk to strangers. ”
