Autumn is high and cool, the sun shines into the yard, although it is autumn, but it is still full of vegetation and vitality.

Zhang Yunshan was watering the flowers with a water gun, and Li Guangming and Zhang Heng helped beside them, pruning the branches and leaves of the flowers and trees according to Zhang Yunshan's command. Banxia drank a glass of milk and ate two big meat buns before he broke free from the chagrin of getting drunk early last night.

The three people who went out to buy vegetables returned home for the first time, and the second aunt couldn't hide her happiness, Ning Ye's whole eyebrows and eyes looked very comfortable, only Zhang Shuqiu, who was at the back, had an unpredictable face. Zhang Heng watched the three people pass by and enter the kitchen, stabbed Li Guangming, and pointed at Zhang Shuqiu, Li Guangming looked puzzled.

Zhang Heng thought about it, stuffed the scissors into Li Guangming's hand, and was about to go into the kitchen to ask, when Yu Chuan hurriedly walked into the yard, entered the kitchen, pulled Zhang Shuqiu and asked, "Xiaoqiu, there is a person named Long Shanshan, do you know him?" ”

Zhang Shuqiu was stunned and said, "Who are you talking about?" ”

"Long Shanshan, Wu Wei said that this person has been looking for you, saying that he is your classmate, but I don't seem to know such a person."

When Zhang Heng heard this name, his heart jumped violently, and he walked a few steps to Zhang Shuqiu, only to see that her face was already pale.

The second aunt and Ning Ye were taking vegetables out of the bag, and when they saw Zhang Shuqiu's expression, they knew that they must have known each other, and Yu Chuan didn't know what to do when he saw Zhang Shuqiu like this.

Zhang Heng hugged Zhang Shuqiu's shoulder: "Xiaoqiu, you ......"

Zhang Shuqiu shook his senses for a moment, and said to Chuan: "Can you contact her?" Long Shanshan. ”

Yu Chuan shook his phone, and replied in a somewhat astringent voice: "Wu Wei sent me a mobile phone number, saying that it was left by Long Shanshan to the editor of the publishing house, and she looked for the editor many times, saying that it was your former classmate, and asked her to give you her phone, saying that you would definitely contact her, and wrote a lot of emails to the editor." The editor also saw her sincerity, so he asked Wu Wei ......"

"Give me the phone!" Zhang Shuqiu's eagerness and excitement were rarely seen by these people present.

Yu Chuan looked at her expression but hesitated, just looked at Zhang Heng, Zhang Heng hesitated and nodded. Zhang Shuqiu received a call from Yu Chuan and hurriedly walked out of the kitchen and went upstairs.

Yu Chuan dared to ask Zhang Heng: "Who is this?" It doesn't matter, right? It stands to reason that I should know all of Xiaoqiu's classmates, but I don't remember having this name. ”

Zhang Heng shook his head and said in a low voice: "It doesn't matter, that child is the same as you, she is the best with Xiaoqiu, Auntie is very grateful to her, without her, Xiaoqiu is afraid that she is ......" said that he couldn't help crying, and his voice was choked.

Yu Chuan took out two tissues from the side and handed them to Zhang Heng, Zhang Heng patted Yu Chuan's hand, wanted to say something, but just sighed and said, "You go and see Xiaoqiu......"

Ning Ye and the second aunt looked at each other, and the second aunt looked at Zhang Heng and asked, "It doesn't matter, I look at Xiaoqiu's expression, it doesn't look like it's okay." ”

Zhang Heng raised his head and saw that Ning Ye was still standing there, shook his head and said to the second aunt: "It's okay, so many years have passed, Xiaoqiu is now older, she has seen the world after the wind and waves, and it should be a good thing for the old people to reunite." ”

Ning Ye saw that Zhang Heng didn't seem to want to say anything in front of him, so he nodded with a smile and went out of the kitchen and went upstairs to find Li Yun.

"Do you know there's a guy named Long Shanshan?" Ning Ye single-handedly asked Li Yundao.

"Who is Long Shanshan?" Li Yun was a little baffled.

"There is a person named Long Shanshan who looks for Xiaoqiu, saying that she is her former classmate, but I don't think she and your mother have good expressions." Ning Ye told the story of the kitchen.

Li Yun was silent for a long time before saying: "It should be that girl, my sister was very bad for a while, I heard my mother say that the girl poured water and rice soup on her, so that she survived, and when my mother looked for it, my sister only had half a life left......"

"What has your sister, Xiaoqiu, been through?" Ning Ye's heart was tense, and he didn't know where those emotions in his heart came from and how to eliminate them.

"I don't know, I don't think my mom is too fussy. It's her whole junior high school stage, we can't figure out what happened, at that time she followed her mother to remarry to another family, my mother and her mother didn't deal with each other, except for Xiaoqiu's occasional vacation to my house, there was no contact......" Li Yun said and stopped.

"Then why did she come to the attached middle school again? Still that weird? Her eyes and expression don't look like a high school student at all...... It's still what kind of singleness it is. Ning Ye continued to ask.

"I really don't know, Xiaoqiu doesn't say it, and no one dares to ask. But I think it should have something to do with a boy named Long Hao. Li Yun thought about it and said it.

"How do you know? Do you know this guy named Long Hao? Ning Ye asked.

"One summer, Xiaoqiu brought him to me, and later I helped him buy some computers that were obsolete from Internet cafes, and he said that he opened an Internet café with them. At that time, there were not many Internet cafes in Jiangcheng, and their kind of prefecture-level city was quite fresh. Li Yun replied.

"And then? Did you meet him later? Ning Ye refused to relax even a step.

"No, I haven't seen it, I, I think, that person should be gone." Li Yun seemed to have made up his mind and said his judgment.

"Why? Why do you judge that? Ning Ye frowned.

"There's no reason, it's just intuition, intuition. When I saw him to my sister, the thing between his eyebrows and eyes couldn't be fake, it was the kind of thing that hurt so much that it could drip water...... If he had lived, my sister would not have lived like a living dead all these years. Li Yun said the pain in his heart in one fell swoop.

Ning Ye's heart twitched suddenly, this may be the deepest and most complicated thing in her eyes that he couldn't figure out at all. Although he had the answer in his heart, he still didn't want to admit it: "Why do you say that about your sister, isn't she very good now?" Motivated, with outstanding achievements, with relatives and friends, how many people can live like her? ”

"Ha, she lives like a Buddha, overlooking all living beings in the world, she has relatives and friends, but she never relies on us people, she keeps smiling like that, but every time I see it, I feel very sad. I'd rather she fight with me like she did when she was a kid for a toy and two pieces of candy. But now, the way she looks at me is more like my mother than my mother. You don't know that when she was a child, her eyes were dark and glowing, and that was called life. But now, her eyes can also shine, but they have become the light of the Buddha......" Speaking of this, Li Yun was very excited.

"So, the one named Long Shanshan should know?" Ning Ye analyzed.

"You should know!" Li Yun replied thoughtfully, then suddenly raised his head alertly and asked, "What do you want to do?" You can't mess around, Xiaoqiu's life is not easy......"

"I don't want to do anything, it's just that I feel sorry for her. If this knot is not untied, do you think she can be okay? Ning Ye's voice was full of determination.

When Zhang Shuqiu dialed Long Shanshan's phone, his hands kept trembling, and his heart was beating hard.

"Hey, hello, who's that?" The phone was connected, and a female voice came over.

Hearing that voice, a stream of heat erupted from Zhang Shuqiu's heart, and he opened his mouth for a long time, but he couldn't speak.

The other end of the phone "hey" a few more times, seeing that he didn't speak, he was about to hang up, "Don't, don't hang up, yes, it's me, Shanshan......"

The other end of the phone was suffocated, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Xiaoqiu? Xiaoqiu, is that you? ”

"Hmm......" Zhang Shuqiu couldn't stop his tears and trembling.

"Xiaoqiu, it's really you, I finally found you, where are you?"

"Xiaoqiu, you speak, are you crying......"

"Xiaoqiu, don't cry, I can't help but want to cry when you cry......"

Yu Chuan ran up and saw that Zhang Shuqiu couldn't cry anymore, but he was holding the phone but couldn't speak, and gave Qu Yingying a look, and Qu Yingying immediately understood.

Yu Chuan stepped forward and gently hugged Zhang Shuqiu, caressed her shoulder with one hand, and wanted to take the phone she had saved tightly with the other: "Xiaoqiu, let me tell you, calm down." ”

Zhang Shuqiu's hand gradually loosened, and the person softened in Qu Yingying's arms.

Yu Chuan picked up the phone, heard that the other end of the phone was also sobbing, his heart couldn't help but heat up, and his voice trembled slightly: "Hello, I am Xiaoqiu's friend Yu Chuan, she is very excited now, she has been crying, unable to speak." ”

He took a sharp breath and said, "Okay, how is she doing?" I just want to know how she's doing. ”

"She's good...... Yu Chuan replied.

Zhang Shuqiu finally relieved himself and said, "She's here, where is she?" Meet ......"

"She should be able to live well, she's so smart......" Although there was a crying voice on the other end of the phone, I could hear the heartfelt joy.

"Where are you now? Xiaoqiu asks if I can meet you? Yu Chuan asked.

There was a silence for a while before he said: "I see Xiaoqiu's phone number, it is Jiangcheng's number, I'll go to Jiangcheng to see her, you send me a location, I'll leave now, and I can arrive in an hour or two." ”

"Okay, great, see you later!" Yu Chuan hung up the phone, added WeChat, and then sent the location over. Zhang Shuqiu choked and trembled as he watched Yu Chuan do all this quickly, and his heart calmed down a little, but he couldn't stop trembling.

"I'll pour a glass of water, Yingying, you wring a hot towel for Xiaoqiu." Yu Chuan Road.

Yu Chuan was afraid that Zhang Heng would be worried, so when he went downstairs, he saw Zhang Heng standing under the eaves outside the door, and immediately said, "That girl is coming later, Xiaoqiu has been crying and can't speak." ”

Zhang Heng patted Yu Chuan's hand and said, "I didn't let them come back then, Xiaoqiu must have blamed me in her heart......"

"Then she'll come later, you ......" Yu Chuan said in a low voice uncertain.

"It was then, it's now, and I actually looked for that girl later, but I heard that I went to the mountain city. Sansa is very sensible, she understands everything. It's just those few years, it is a dead knot in Xiaoqiu's heart, we don't dare to ask or touch, you ......" Zhang Heng's tone was infinitely sad.

"I know, don't worry!" Yu Chuan nodded heavily.

When Yu Chuan brought a cup of green tea up, Zhang Shuqiu had already calmed down. Qu Yingying glanced at Yu Chuan in confusion, and when she saw Yu Chuan shaking her head slightly, she didn't ask any more.

Yu Chuan put the tea at the right temperature into Zhang Shuqiu's hand, which was still trembling slightly, and said, "Drink some hot water, you look like this, don't be scared when people come." ”

Zhang Shuqiu picked up the teacup in a daze, brought it to his mouth and took a sip gently, the warmth slipped from his lips and teeth to his heart, stomach, and body......

Seeing her in a daze, Yu Chuan asked softly, "Can you talk to us?" ”

The green tea leaves swirled in the light blue tea soup, Zhang Shuqiu looked at the tea leaves and was stunned for a while, before he spoke: "For a while, I felt that I couldn't live anymore, and there were still people looking for me everywhere, although I didn't want to live, but I couldn't fall into the hands of those people." Sansa took a big risk and hid me in her house. Flooding me with water, rice soup, and vegetable soup every day kept me alive......"

Yu Chuan and Qu Yingying just guessed in the past, Zhang Shuqiu must have experienced something, but they didn't expect such a desperate situation. Qu Yingying was next to Zhang Shuqiu, and said tightly with her arms: "It's okay, it's all over, you see that when we don't want to die, don't we all support each other like this......"

The three of them felt that this topic was very heavy, and they didn't know how to continue talking about it for a while, Zhang Shuqiu shook his head and said: "You don't know, Shanshan, she is her mother who entered the door with her belly, her father has either beaten or scolded her since she was a child, she hid me, for her, it was very fatal, I was later picked up by my aunt, this paper definitely can't contain the fire, I don't know how she survived......"

Yu Chuan sighed and changed the subject: "Hey, someone is coming soon, and you will be able to meet her." Do you remember what she liked to eat? Let's make something she likes to eat, and do our best, don't you think? ”

Zhang Shuqiu was stunned and said: "At that time, she liked to eat cucumber fried ham sausage the most, and she was very happy every time she ate ham sausage." But at that time she was very poor, and I really don't know what she likes to eat. ”

Qu Yingying pulled Zhang Shuqiu and said: "Let's make a table of dishes, make a sumptuous meal, there will always be something she likes to eat, let's go, don't sit here and think about it." ”

Zhang Yunshan knew what was going on, but he didn't dare to come in and ask at all, he knew very well in his heart that his sister was generally light and light, and if there was something, it must be a big thing that could not be asked, so he was so anxious to go around in the yard. watched Yu Chuan and Qu Yingying drag Zhang Shuqiu into the kitchen, and listened quietly outside the kitchen for a long time before they were relieved and went into the house to find Zhang Heng.

Zhang Hengzheng and Li Guangming were sitting in the study on the third floor, and the two of them did not communicate, just holding a book, but did not turn the page, and the other held a cup of tea, and did not take a sip from hot to cold.

Zhang Yunshan had never seen his aunt and uncle like this, but Ai Ai stood at the door and said: "My sister went to the kitchen, and those two sisters accompanied her to cook, I listened to it for a long time and said a lot of dishes......

Li Guangming and Zhang Heng looked at Zhang Yunshan together, stunned, and a smile gradually appeared on their faces, Li Guangming said: "You go and call your brother Yun, let him drive to the old Li's house in front, buy some crabs and come back, pick up the big ones, and then see if there are any lobsters and wild soft-shelled turtles, buy some back." Saying that, he stood up again and said, "Forget it, let's go, that old Li bullied, let you go, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy anything good back." ”

"Tell Xiao Yun to drive, and you father and son will go together." Zhang Heng stood up and walked downstairs to find his son to drive.

The second monk of Zhang Yunshan was puzzled, and shouted: "Let me go, I will go, I will pick ......"
