029 heart-to-heart

"It's time to eat." Zhao Guodong took a pot of braised pork and put it in front of Xiao Yingzi, and handed the chopsticks to Xiao Yingzi, "Hurry up and eat first, I'll go and bring the rice." ”

Xiao Yingzi picked up the chopsticks, quickly grabbed a piece of meat and put it in her mouth, it was so fragrant! Xiao Yingzi doesn't remember that she had eaten meat before when she was stupid, two years ago? Three years ago? The only time I remember was during the Chinese New Year, Xiao Yingzi and her parents gathered around the table, and the family ate meat happily, not much, but everyone ate very warmly.

Unconsciously, the tears in Xiao Yingzi's eyes flowed down, Zhao Guodong came over with two bowls of rice, saw the tears on Xiao Yingzi's face, and quickly put down the bowl in his hand and wiped the tears off Xiao Yingzi's face, "What's wrong?" Isn't it delicious? ”

"I miss my mom and dad." Xiao Yingzi looked up at Zhao Guodong with rain. Zhao Guodong had no other way, so he had to gently stop Xiao Yingzi in his arms and pat Xiao Yingzi on the shoulder. Xiao Yingzi was even more sad for a while, and she cried louder and more sad in Zhao Guo's arms.

After a long while, Zhao Guodong helped Xiao Yingzi up from his arms, wiped the tears on Xiao Yingzi's face, looked at Xiao Yingzi's eyes and said: "Xiao Yingzi, don't cry, in the future, you have to study hard, you will become a pillar of the country in the future, and you will become a useful person, and then you will give your parents the best filial piety, and even your parents' spirits in heaven can be comforted, understand?" ”

Xiao Yingzi nodded, Zhao Guodong put the rice and chopsticks in front of Xiao Yingzi: "It's good to understand, come, let's eat quickly, when the braised pork is cold, it won't taste good, hurry up and eat quickly, study hard when you are full, and then you can make your parents feel at ease." ”

"Hmm." Xiao Yingzi nodded, wiped the tears from her face, and desperately stuffed food into her mouth.

Zhao Guodong gave Xiao Yingzi a piece of braised pork with concern and said, "Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke." ”

The meal ended in Zhao Guodong's concerned eyes, and Xiao Yingzi kept stuffing the food into his mouth. After eating, Zhao Guodong was about to stand up and clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but Xiao Yingzi took the first step to stack the dishes and chopsticks together, "It's been a tired day, you rest for a while, and I'll wash the dishes." ”

Zhao Guodong didn't listen to Xiao Yingzi's words, he was still very happy, no matter what, Xiao Yingzi finally spoke to himself. Zhao Guodong still stood up, cleaned up the rest of the dishes, wiped the table with a rag over and over again, and then watched Xiao Yingzi busy washing pots and dishes there.

As soon as Xiao Yingzi finished washing, he took out the books from his schoolbag and began to write his homework, Zhao Guodong nodded with satisfaction, and then took out the lamp and books, notebooks, pens, and ink that he bought from the street from the cloth bag on his bed, and put them in front of Xiao Yingzi.

"What is this?" Xiao Yingzi looked puzzled.

"Since I met you, I haven't given you a decent gift, and now we are a family, in the past, the poor coal had the money to buy you gifts, and now our lives have improved a little, and we can't say anything without giving you some gifts." Zhao Guodong pushed those things in front of Xiao Yingzi again.

"Today I paid my salary, which I bought for you from my bookstore in Liuzhen. Every day I see you doing your homework in such a dark light, I feel uncomfortable, I'm afraid that you will use your eyes badly, no, I bought you a desk lamp, I don't know what color you like, but I saw girls as big as you on the street like pink, I also bought you a pink one, I don't know if you like it or not. ”

Zhao Guodong plugged the lamp into the socket as he spoke, twisted it open, and suddenly the whole room became brighter and softer, "Try it, do you like it or not?" ”

"I like it." Xiao Yingzi finally suppressed the tears, as if she had a feeling of flowing out again.

"These are the books I bought for you, I have no culture, ask other people's bookstores, and these books are suitable for girls of your age, so I bought them."

"Insects? The history of Confucianism? Red and black? Xiao Yingzi screamed in surprise when she read one book, then hugged the three books tightly in her arms, and looked at Zhao Guodong with a smile, "Is it for me?" ”

"It must be for you, I don't know how to read, I bought it to paste the wall." Zhao Guodong smiled.

"Hee-hee." Xiao Yingzi raised a smile at Zhao Guodong, and couldn't put it down and touched the books, in the past, the classmates said that there was this and that in these books, and they were all envious to death, but now they have it, and they can chat with their classmates.

"Don't be happy, read books and read books, and don't delay your studies when the time comes." Xiao Yingzi nodded vigorously.

"Okay, I'm showing you something." Zhao Guodong took out a fountain pen, a bottle of blue ink, and a black notebook from behind him as if he was playing a trick.

"This? Pen? Xiao Yingzi feels that today is her lucky day.

"These are for you." Zhao Guodong stuffed everything in his hand into Xiao Yingzi's hand.

"It's so beautiful, is this for me?" Xiao Yingzi simply didn't believe her eyes, looking at Zhao Guodong and nodding with a smile, Xiao Yingzi blinked vigorously, making sure that she was not dreaming.

"Okay, don't blink, be careful not to blink." Zhao Guodong said with a smile, seeing Xiao Yingzi happy there, he also felt happy in his heart.

"Hey, hey." Xiao Yingzi happily put aside these things that Zhao Guodong bought, and started to write homework in the white light, Zhao Guodong turned off the dim light bulb in the room, and then lay on his bed happily, watching Xiao Yingzi write his homework seriously there, and sighed in his heart.

This tone is not to sigh that the world is unfair, but to sigh that Xiao Yingzi's parents died too early, if they can see Xiao Yingzi like this, they must be very relieved, they have been thinking about it so much and falling asleep.

Suddenly, there seemed to be something pushing himself, and his perennial military literacy made Zhao Guodong immediately open his eyes, stand up as soon as he took a moment, and looked at it, it was Xiao Yingzi pushing himself, "What's wrong?" ”

"Can I talk to you?"

"It's so late, don't you have to go to school tomorrow?"

"I'm sorry." Xiao Yingzi suddenly bowed to Zhao Guodong.

"What is this for?" Zhao Guodong hurriedly helped Xiao Yingzi up.

"I used to be so ignorant that I didn't talk to you, I was wrong, it was my own fault, and I ignored everything you did to me on my own."

"It's okay, aren't we a family? What's not to over? ”
