Chapter 483: New Year's Outing
Before the Chinese New Year, Gao Ruohan proposed to travel once, and it was not very interesting to spend the New Year at home, but it was just to get together to eat and drink, which made the whole person fat and greasy.
Why don't you choose a good place and travel for the New Year?
Butterfly thinks about it and feels reasonable, and the kite finally survived the first semester, although the first semester of primary school is not very busy, but for him, after all, his life has changed, from a kindergarten child to a first-grade primary school student, and he has to gradually face heavy learning pressure and various life tests.
He has been really tired in the past six months.
The butterfly saw it in his eyes, and although he didn't say anything, he knew in his heart that he was trying to adapt to this change, just like all children of his age.
Butterfly pondered for a moment, and took him out for a walk and relaxation, which was a serious thing.
For the first time, the butterfly decided to put down everything she was doing, do nothing, and take a hike with the kite. This little man is also pitiful, he has grown so big, he has never been anywhere, he has never seen anywhere, he has been confined to this reinforced concrete city all day long, he has not even taken a plane, he has not even seen the sea, and he has not even climbed the mountain.
Sometimes, when he was reading a book, he would read those articles that depicted nature, and he would ask the butterfly with a surprised face: Mom, what does the sea look like? Why are bats blind? Mom, do chickens really only have two legs?
These questions made the butterfly laugh dumbly, it was funny, it was pathetic, and it was unbearable.
is really reading without hearing what is going on outside the window, and that kind of dazed and ignorant is the frog at the bottom of the well. Where do you know how big, magical, and magnificent the outside world is?
It's a pity that he, a small person, only knows how to sit in class every day, listen to the teacher, and then go home with his schoolbag and listen to his mother. This boring life gradually wore away his childlike fun. By the time he finishes his studies, he is just like a mule in a mill, being pushed to work by a wave of brains.
So she readily agreed with Gao Ruohan's decision. Gao Ruohan was overjoyed, and hurriedly began to check various travel websites on the Internet to find a suitable place.
She didn't think it was clear on the phone, so she ran to Butterfly for three days and discussed with Butterfly where to play, which travel company to choose, or which way to travel.
She actually said whimsically: Why don't we go with some travel friends?
Butterfly immediately shook her head and objected: This is not good, it is too unsafe, we still have a child, we must put safety first.
Gao Ruohan thought about it, so he said: When it comes to travel, I am also a frequent visitor, and I go to many places, but I really can't think of anything good. Why don't you make a suggestion?
Butterfly said: Well, let me think about it.
Less than half a day after Gao Ruohan left, he called and asked Butterfly: Blame, what do you think?
Butterfly smiled and said, "Aunt Gao, I'm still on my way to catch the kite."
Gao Ruohan was so anxious that he said: Okay, think about it again, I'll call you at night.
Butterfly didn't understand why she was in such a hurry, and said: This matter is not in a hurry, he still has some days before the holiday, let me think about it.
Gao Ruohan said: This should be determined quickly, and it is necessary to book a travel agency, purchase things, and make various preparations......
Butterfly couldn't help but say: I know, don't worry, I will give you an answer before this weekend. That's all right, right?
Gao Ruohan was satisfied and said: You have to hurry up.
Butterfly was a little impatient and said, "Okay, Aunt Gao, I'm going to catch the kite, I won't talk to you more, things are very busy at night." I'll call you back.
Gao Ruohan was a little apprehensive.
After receiving the kite, she also asked him about this: You say, are we going out for the New Year?
Of course, the kite is happy, the child is naturally active, like to play, as soon as he heard that the New Year can go to other places instead of staying at home boringly, all of a sudden he was happy, jumped a few times in the same place, like a happy wallaby.
Then he anxiously grabbed her hand and asked vigorously: Mom, where are we going? Really hang out? Let's fly, we kids have all been on a plane, I haven't been on a plane yet. …… And mom, dad and us with us or not? …… I want Dad to go with us and we go and play together as a family, okay? Mom, do you think it's okay? …… Dad hasn't been here for a long time, so let's go together, okay?
This sentence stopped the butterfly.
Since the last time I met Yuan Mei, the mother of the diving bird, the butterfly has not been happy. After that meeting, she sat alone by the fountain in People's Square for a long time. I have been thinking about the conversation between them just now, and the more I think about it, the more unhappy I become, and the more I think about it, the more unhappy I feel.
sat in this way until dusk, and then she listlessly took the return subway to Gao Ruohan's house to pick up the kite. looked at the kite, and inexplicably sad, as if he was about to leave him. Because of the feeling of being coveted, it always makes butterflies have some heart palpitations and panic.
She was confused for several days, as if Yuan Mei would rush to her to ask for a child anytime and anywhere, and she was worried that the diving bird would come with his mother to ask for the child.
This lingering thought made her uneasy for a long time. Although she herself admitted to Yuan Mei that she would respect her children's own wishes when she grew up. But this kind of high-sounding remark is really an unreasonable statement, and it was also a pretext at the time, after all, it is against the sincerity of a mother.
What mother would be willing to give away the child she raised single-handedly?
Even if it is a cat or dog raised by himself, he may be reluctant to give it to others, let alone the child he has worked so hard to raise? The butterfly watched the kite grow from such a small ball of flesh to a little bit of growth, how many days and nights, how many thoughts, it is really impossible to describe.
However, the butterfly knows that the diving bird does have this right, because the existence of this right is objectively there, and all it makes her feel uneasy.
However, the strange thing is that for a long time after this meeting, the diving bird did not look for her, did not show up, and did not even have any news at all.
Butterfly was also a little unsure of what was going on with him, but because she was afraid, she naturally didn't dare to make this call, so as not to find the door to give herself bad luck. But the diving birds didn't come looking for her.
Months passed inexplicably, and gradually the butterflies forgot about it. She thought that maybe he was on a business trip, and maybe he wasn't in the magic capital.
Suddenly, she couldn't help but think of him again, and was stunned for a moment.
Naturally, he wouldn't be asked to go with him when he traveled, so he comforted Zhikite and said: Your father, he is very busy at work, and you don't know it, right? You see you're an adult now, you should be sensible, right? Dad has been playing with you for a while, and he must have left a lot of work behind, just like you, once you are greedy for fun, you will fall behind in your homework, and the homework you fall behind always has to be completed, right? So, your dad must be busy with work these days, and he doesn't have time to play with you, so you can't always pester him, you know?
The kite looked at the butterfly as if she didn't understand, and said, "Okay, Mom." But, Mom, when will Dad come over?
The butterfly touched his head proudly and complimented: Well, this is a good boy.
But soon he sighed resentfully, some as if he was saying to the kite, and some as if he was saying to himself: Do you miss him so much?
Zhi Kite didn't hear clearly for a while, so he asked: Mom, what did you say?
The butterfly turned her mind and came back to her senses, saying, "It's nothing, ask you what you want to eat at night?"
The kite said, "Mom, I want to eat scallion pancakes." When the butterfly heard this, she said: What, you want to eat scallion pancakes?
Zhi Kite pointed to a community gate across the road, surrounded by a group of children and parents, where the enticing aroma wafted and the crisp sound of oil popping from the pot of prickly thorny oil. There is a stall selling scallion pancakes.
