Only then did Tie Ming remember that he had to receive a visitor at five o'clock, so he hurriedly stood up and asked Mr. Wang to sit down. Qin Xin sat there motionless alone, his eyes rolling to look at them, understanding that they were going to talk about business, and he wanted to hear it so much, so he sat still and didn't leave. Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, Tie Ming made a "please" movement with his hand and said:

"Refreshment, you can ......"

Hmph, you want to drive me away, right, I don't want to leave, I want to listen. Qin Xin pretended not to pay attention to Tie Ming's hints, and instead said with a smile:

"If you want to talk about business, I will listen to it too."

Tie Ming's face changed for a moment, lowered his eyes, thought about it for a while, and coaxed Qin Xin to say:

"Qin Xin, just now your father called to call you home for dinner, I have something to do, I can't send you home."

Tie Ming shouted Guan Xiaomei outside again:

"Xiaoguan, you send Qin Xin out for me and find a rickshaw."

Cat’s meow? Did I hear me right, my dad called me for dinner? You're bad, don't you just want to drive me away! Turning around and changing tricks, am I so obstructive to your eyes? Qin pouted reluctantly, and saw Guan Xiaomei coming in, so she had no choice but to leave with her.

Tie Ming went out with her, Qin Xin turned around and looked at him with concern, and told him: "Don't smoke too much, remember to have dinner, I will call your house in the evening."

Since then, Qin Xin has been lonely and lonely at home, staring blankly at the small western-style building, thinking about the bits and pieces that have happened here in the past six months, doing homework and being lazy, pretending to be a ghost to scare him, talking for a long time on a rainy night, everything crowded and crowded as if it happened yesterday.

Now it came to an abrupt end, and he was silent again. Qin Xin turned around in disappointment, returned to the room, hugged her doll, and sighed.

In the past few days, I was in a depressed mood, so I called Shao Ai when I had nothing to do, and listened to her heavy tone, as if there was something to worry about. Qin Xin also tasted not to disturb her.

Some people go to college, some get married, some find jobs, and some stay at home. Shao Aiyi wants to be a teacher, and she prepares for the teacher exam in Shanghai primary school at home, and she is busy but fulfilling every day.

She is the only girl in her family, and her mother didn't see people clearly when she was young, and accidentally made someone small. When she was born, the man ran away, leaving nothing for their mother and daughter. Shao Ai's mother had no choice but to go home and beg her parents to raise this poor girl so that she could go out and ask the ruthless man for an explanation.

"You still have the face to come back!"

Shao Ai's grandfather is a former Qing Xiucai, his daughter did such a thing, and the ancestral plaques were covered with dust, and he would rather not have this daughter than suffer such an insult, and without saying a word, he drove the mother and daughter out of the house.

It was Shao Ai's grandmother who took pity on her daughter and granddaughter, prepared a house for them, gave her daughter some money to let her take her granddaughter to live a good life, and then took them back when the old man was angry.

But this ruthless and stubborn man did not die until he died, and he lost his breath. Shao Ai's mother has not set foot in the house since then. At this time, Shao Ai was already sensible and understood his situation, and his grandmother's house had never stepped into it.

Why was I born to bear such a crime as insulting the door wind? Is it wrong to be born, and how can I decide my own birth?

When Shao Ai learned about her background, she thought angrily.

What about Mom? Does Shao Ai resent her mother? She couldn't tell. This woman, who depends on her life and death, is destined for her life when she meets that man.

She was originally a scholarly family, and she was also a well-read lady, but even the maid had to be despised overnight. Women, if you lose your name, you lose your whole life, and the rest of your days are shame.

This shame is like the slimy liquid on the snail's body, with a strong suction, which is most likely to attract strange eyes, unscrupulous abuse and white eyes from others. When Shao Ai was a child, she played with her friends in the alley, and whenever something happened, the group of children would move out of her father, which made Shao Ai embarrassed.

Why not escape the city?

Shao Ai's mother didn't dare to face her daughter's questioning, this gentle woman still had a fantasy in her heart, maybe one day he would come to find it, and she would ask something important. This sentence allowed me to endure humiliation and live to this day.

When Shao Ai saw her weak mother, she couldn't bear to ask her, so she had to endure the pain herself.

Since you are covered in mucus and covered with stinging stones, you can cover yourself with a shell, a thick hard shell, and you can still give yourself a little protection on a snowy day. Discrimination against single-parent girls is even more terrible than that.

No matter how difficult the personnel are, it is not easy for everyone to live peacefully until now, and the knives and scars left are the price of life.

Shao Ai naively thought that the shell on his back could protect him, and he had carried it on his back since he was born, and he had walked so hard all the way, and he could only watch other girls laugh and watch them coquettish in his father's arms.

The snail can only remind his shell from time to time: you are an orphan girl, without the love of your father, you must be strong. This shell is protection, it is a load, it can't be removed, I want to take it off, but I don't want to take it off. It's really hard. "I'm going to find you."

Shao Ai was ruthless at her father's photo, took a small needle and stabbed it hard around the photo, and said fiercely:

"There are so many men in the world, why did my mother find you. There are so many women in the world, why did you find my mother. People say "Golden Wind and Jade Dew", and you are the spoiled 'Golden Wind and Jade Dew'. ”

Maybe it's providence, fate is not broken, and there will be another day of encounter.

A few days ago, this man came to Shanghai for treatment all the way, and was abandoned by his family in the middle of the treatment, and he was left in the hospital, and he soon ran out of medicine. He was later evicted from the hospital.

After living a vagabond-like life for a few days in such a miserable and miserable way, he suddenly remembered the love debt he owed more than ten years ago, and asked left and right, but he didn't expect to touch the home of the mother and daughter.

He was very old, with gray and unkempt hair, a scruffy beard, hollow eyes, and straw-like yellow skin, as if he was sick. Although he was wearing a suit, the suit had not been changed or washed for many days, and in the past few days when he was homeless, sweat, rain, wind and sand had already polished it hard and dirty.

After finding a few wrong places, after eating a few closed doors, he was about to give up, and when he saw this door, he hesitated again and again, but he still raised the bamboo stick in his hand and knocked it three times.

Shao Ai was endorsing in the yard, and heard a knock on the door outside, at that time, her mother was not at home, I don't know who it was, and from the crack in the door, it turned out to be a person named Hanako, who picked up the iron rod standing on the side and hid it behind him, and opened the door.

"Who are you looking for?"

Shao Ai's father saw the slim girl in front of him, as if he saw Shao Ai's mother, his lips trembled excitedly, and his eyes were red and tearful.

"Shao Ai."

"Who are you and how do you know my name?"

Shao Ai is very strange, he has never met this Hanako, how can he call his name? Shao Ai's father moved his dry and chapped lips, wanting to say it but embarrassed to say it, obviously his daughter was in front of him, but he didn't dare to recognize him. After being silent for a while, Shao Ai was about to drive him away, when her father suddenly shouted.

"Son, I'm your dad."

"Dad?"

Shao Ai paused, stunned, his eyes widened, looking this person up and down? The picture of his father under the glass of the table in his room came to mind, and the man in front of him really looked a little similar, but how could he be like this? Is he really my dad?

"You're my dad? Do you name my mother? ”

"Bai Shasha."

When Shao Ai's father said this name again, he had mixed feelings, and the past came up together, looking at his daughter, and the old tears were all over the place. Shao Ai's mouth opened incredibly wide, and in an instant, anger, shame, and resentment were written all over her white face.

It's been seventeen years, this man has finally been found, my mother has been waiting for you for seventeen years, your daughter has hated you for seventeen years, you really have the face.

"Smack".

Shao Ai slammed the door shut. I just want to wait for you to come to the door, wait for this opportunity, close the door, and turn you away coldly, you don't deserve to be my dad, call you dad, can you stand it?

Shao Ai recalled the hardships of her childhood, and leaned her back against the door in pain, slowly sat down on the ground, hugged her knees and sobbed. I didn't expect him to come back, ah, he deserved to be like this!

I don't know why, Shao Ai opened the door again, and saw her father sitting on the stone bench under the grape trellis in front of the door, and her heart softened, but she still let her father in.

Move stools, wash your face, pour tea.

Shao Ai was polite to her father, sat down and stared at her father, she wanted to figure out the purpose of her father's visit this time, looking at his appearance, most likely asking for money.

Shao Ai's father sat there very cramped, but secretly looked at the house. Although it is an old-style house, but now the price must have increased, this living room furnishings, this big vase calligraphy and painting...... Oh, Shao Ai's father had a rough idea in his heart, and suddenly a sentence popped up.

"Are you and your mom okay all these years?"

Shao Ai shook his head, his eyes were cold, he "hummed", and spit out a sentence:

"Are you embarrassed to ask, do you think we're doing well?"

"Oh, Shao Ai - Dad, I ......"

Her father snorted, glanced at his daughter, and lowered his head again. Shao Ai jumped up, pointed at her father's nose and roared loudly:

"Do you have the face to say the word 'dad', do you understand what it's like to be surrounded by a large group of children and scold yourself for not having a father, do you know what it's like for a student to sit in the classroom when the school holds a parent-teacher conference? Or do you understand what it's like to be afraid to go back to your hometown during the Chinese New Year, and you will be ridiculed when you go back? ”

Shao Ai said excitedly, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, his bangs stood up because of anger, his chest rose and fell, and the whole person was like a crazy cat. It's been seventeen years, and my hatred for you is as high as seventeen stories. If I were a boy, I would beat you with an iron rod.

"Shao Ai, don't be angry, it's Dad who is wrong."
