Chapter 19: Homelessness
Liu Shimeng works in the field, far away from home, so naturally he doesn't know, but he goes home almost every week, and Lu Mei's performance has long been problematic, but he has never noticed it so obviously, which shows how irresponsible this son is.
"God, I don't blame you, my mother is afraid that you will worry, so I won't let you know, don't blame yourself too much about my mother's affairs, many things are fixed, you still have a long way to go in the future, you have to be good, be a useful person!" Liu Shimeng comforted.
"Only in this way can you be worthy of your mother's hard work, so you have to be strong and cheer up, never back down and give up when you encounter things, our sisters and brothers must be good, don't let people look down on you, you know?" Liu Shimeng pulled Liu Tianci's way.
"Sister, I know, I will be strong, I will definitely mix up, this time my mother is gone, after graduation, I will also go to Qingping to live, buy a house there, and be close to you, I don't want to stay here!" Liu Tianci said.
Liu Shimeng looked at her younger brother, raised her head to look at the ceiling, and let the tears in her eyes flow back.
She didn't want to stay here, because this was the place where she was sad, maybe Liu Tianci was in such a state of mind like herself.
Qingping is a first-tier city in the north, and there is a lot of room for development, maybe he will have a new life there.
"God, you study hard, and when you graduate, you will go to Qingping, our sister and brother will not be separated, and rebuild our own homes, okay?" Liu Shimeng smiled.
"I know sister, I will definitely work hard! I'm going to be a brave man and take good care of you! Liu Tianci clenched Liu Shimeng's hand, and the taste in his heart was indescribable.
"God, I'll leave in a few days, can you stay at home? I have to go back to work! Liu Shimeng said.
"Sister, I know, it's okay for me to stay at home, when you leave, I will also go back to the city to work part-time, don't be too tired when you return to Qingping, don't worry about me, I will also wait for Shen Cheng to come back at home, I want to settle accounts with him, he got into trouble and left, his mother died and he didn't come back, I haven't seen such a person!"
Liu Tianci gritted his teeth and said, he hated Shen Cheng before, and now he hates Shen Cheng even more.
"God, Shen Cheng is a bad person, but my mother said before her death that she wouldn't let us abandon him, so even if it's for my mother, we can't ignore him!"
"I want to wait for me to go back, give him some living expenses a month, which is our reward, and when you have a job after graduation, don't forget him, give him living expenses, he has not given us warmth, and we can't give back ruthlessly!" Liu Shimeng said.
"I know, sister, I won't forget!" Liu Tianci said warmly.
"After I leave, you have to be careful with your body, don't work too hard, you have to pay attention to your studies, you don't have to worry too much about the cost, there is still one semester to end, how can I get through it!" I still have some money for you! Liu Shimeng said, taking out some money from his backpack and stuffing it into Liu Tianci's hand.
"Sister, you don't need to keep the money, I still have some here, wait for you to go, take it, I can make money, you need money everywhere outside, I'm a man!" Liu Tianci smiled and pushed the money back.
"Men also need to eat, you have this money! As soon as he comes back, it's not enough! ”
After the first seven, Liu Shimeng is going back to Qingping again, she went back to the university before she left, the university is still the same, because it is a holiday, it is very quiet, she walks alone on the path that she and Yule have walked, there is still no change, the only thing that has changed is Liu Shimeng.
At that time, Liu Shimeng was happy and sweet, because the warm sun of amusement warmed her, but now there is no amusement, she is alone, and she seems lonely and lonely.
She reminisced about the past as she walked, she never forgot it, and she didn't want to forget it, it was her happiest time, but after returning to reality, it was so miserable.
Liu Shimeng walked all the way, shedding tears all the way, and finally she squatted on a staircase, hugged her knees and cried, thinking that she would not cry for the pleasure anymore, however, when she saw everything that was familiar, she couldn't help crying.
Love someone for a minute, forget a person needs a lifetime, amusement is her injury, this life will not forget, can not forget means that she can't get out of this lonely life.
Liu Shimeng left Su Jin, with sadness, exhaustion, and worry, when she separated from Liu Tianci, she hugged him and cried bitterly, and asked him again and again before she reluctantly left.
When I returned to Qingping, it was sunset and dusk again, but at this time the sky was dark, and only the bright street lamps illuminated every corner.
Liu Shimeng sighed, because she didn't know where to go except for the only salute, her bag was empty.
Because of the freezing weather and the raging cold wind, Liu Shimeng hesitated for a while and decided to return to her former residence, she wanted to call her roommate, but the other party's mobile phone was turned off.
Liu Shimeng took the bus, changed the route, and returned to her original residence, she knocked lightly on the door, and it was a strange man who opened the door.
"Is Sister Wang here?" The moment Liu Shimeng saw the man, her heart cooled.
"Sister Wang, she's out!" The man said politely.
"Oh! Who are you? Liu Shimeng asked tentatively.
"I'm a tenant here, and I just moved in!" The man said.
"I used to live here, and my things are kept by Sister Wang, I don't know when she will come back!" Liu Shimeng asked.
"Your stuff? I don't know, so you wait for her to come back and ask, please come in! The man smiled.
Liu Shimeng was slightly uneasy and rejected the man's enthusiasm.
She walked alone on the street, although she was wearing a down cotton suit, it was still very cold, her hands and feet were almost numb, and she felt even more cold in such a lonely and helpless night.
She looked at the streets and alleys, and felt so lonely, without amusement or house, she wandered like a stray dog on the side of the street, and wanted to go to a hotel for a night, but the money in her hand was not enough to pay for the house.
Liu Shimeng looked at the night, the white gas in her mouth fluttered, and finally disappeared without a trace.
The art studio, brightly lit and warm, the bearded man was concentrating on oil painting, and suddenly a knock on the door pulled him back from another beautiful world.
He struggled to open the inner door, then the outer door, and finally pulled the door, and Liu Shimeng's cold red face appeared in front of him.
"Mr. Liu, why do you look like this?" The bearded man frowned, surprised.
"Teacher Lu, I'm sorry to disturb you!" Liu Shimeng felt embarrassed.
"You just came back?" The bearded man pulled the suitcase in Liu Shimeng's hand and couldn't help but pull her in.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, after thinking about it, you are the only one I can talk about in this city............... Can I borrow a night here today? Liu Shimeng rubbed her hands and paused.
The bearded man didn't answer, but violently pulled her upstairs and turned on the electric fireplace, the room was not cold when it was heated, but the bearded man felt pity when he saw Liu Shimeng's trembling appearance.
"What the hell happened to you? Your phone never gets through, do you know... Do you know if you've missed your class? The bearded man wanted to say do you know that I'm worried about you, but he swallowed it anyway.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I have something at home, so I went back without arranging a class! I'm so sorry! Liu Shimeng said ashamedly.
"What do you want to drink? Coffee or warm tea? The bearded man said.
"It's all right!" Liu Shimeng said.
"Then drink warm tea!" The bearded man walked out of the room with a cold face, then stopped.
"You're going to stay in this room tonight!"
"Thank you, Mr. Lu!" Liu Shimeng finally smiled, her face full of gratitude.
The bearded man put the warm tea in Liu Shimeng's hand, brought the pastry, and put it on the table to signal that she could eat it.
After doing everything, he sat next to him and looked at the particularly pitiful epiphany in front of him.
"You seem, you can take off your clothes, or you'll be hot in a while!" The bearded man smiled, but still felt serious.
Only then did Liu Shimeng notice that she was still wearing a thick down cotton jacket since she entered the house.
"Hehe, I forgot, I said how hot I am!"
Liu Shimeng took off the cotton clothes and put them on the sofa beside her, took a sip of warm tea, and suddenly felt warmth in her heart, and her heart was also stable.
"Tell me, what's wrong with you? I believe it must be a big deal to be able to torture you so haggard! The bearded man said.
Liu Shimeng lowered her head and looked at the tea in her hand, for Teacher Lu, she didn't need to hide anything from him, after all, he was the instructor of the amusement.
"Yes, something happened to my family, my mom died, just a few days ago!" When Liu Shimeng mentioned Lu Mei, she still couldn't help but want to cry, but she held back the tears in her eyes.
She recounts to the bearded man about what had happened recently.
"I'm sorry, I don't know anything! Please also mourn and change, you look tired, I will go and make you some food, you can eat these first, or you can live here with peace of mind! Don't worry too much! The bearded man smiled slightly.
I don't know how long later, when the bearded man came back with a steaming meal, Liu Shimeng had already leaned on the cushion and fell into a long sleep, her long eyelashes fluttering gently like butterflies.
The bearded man gently put down the food in his hand, took out the quilt from the cabinet next to him, and carefully covered her.
He sat quietly next to Liu Shimeng, looking at the girl with a rare smile.
Looking at her sweet sleeping face, the bearded man's heart was full of pity, she used to be such a happy girl, but at this time, she was weak, she was carrying the pain of losing her lover and losing her mother to live, and she had to face everything with a smile.
The bearded man looked at her quietly, looked at her with a smile, and for a moment, his heart was like a blooming bud.
Liu Shimeng's beautiful, strong, youthful aura made his sudden throbbing.
