CHAPTER XXII
After eating, Mr. Liu left first, and the eldest aunt followed out, leaving only our sister and brother and Uncle Li in the box.
"Weiwei, when you have winter vacation, find a time to go to our factory together and learn about it. I won't say anything about the scene, anyway, Uncle won't let the two of you suffer. This is my phone, what's the matter, call me. ”
Write down Uncle Li's phone number, we went out of the hotel together, at the door of the hotel, Uncle Li stuffed me with a bag before leaving, and said to let me go home and see it again. After seeing off Uncle Li, Haohao and I went home.
On the way back, I bought a bag of apples, and I led Haohao to the third aunt's house, after all, the third aunt took the initiative to come over to help.
"Weiwei, come as soon as you come, return that little apple, the third aunt's family is not short of this bit of food, you take it back, the family doesn't have to be so polite." Seeing the apple in my hand, the third aunt hurriedly refused, and I still gently put the apple on the table.
"Third aunt, I came to ask you, why is the eldest aunt so active in the middle this time?" I think the third aunt must have known or should say she heard something, so she came to my house early in the morning.
"She, I heard from the people in our village that the old family and that Mr. Liu are relatives who can't beat three poles, I heard that I want to find you, she got up by herself, I heard that if the negotiation is completed, she will give her son a small head. With this good thing, why didn't she go up? Looking at the third aunt's disdainful expression, I figured out the intention of the eldest aunt.
"That third aunt, this is being stirred up today, can she still get her wish?"
"Anyway, our two families don't get along, but after all, it's her own family, and she doesn't dare to do too much. Besides, who knows if people will benefit her afterwards? Okay, don't talk about it so much, there are dumplings on the aunt's plate, give you some to carry it, you take it home, and it's easy to make. ”
Thank you Aunt Xie, Haohao and I took our things home.
No wonder Brother Lobby has a high school degree in the last life, and he can still be a small head in a factory, there must be the credit of the eldest aunt, but why didn't I know that my parents still invested in a small shoe factory with others in my last life, so who promised Mr. Liu instead of me and Haohao? I remember once asking my aunt about my parents' passbook, and they said they didn't know. Besides, my family's house became their wedding room after Brother Lobby got married, and I don't believe that my parents would invest all their money in that small shoe factory, my parents' personality is not like this. Forget it, go back and sort out your parents' things.
When I got home, I told Hao Hao what I thought, and the two of us were going to clean up my parents' room together.
Having opened the lock that had been sealed for a long time, I hadn't been to this room in a long time. The furnishings in the house are still the same, I remember that my mother always had to direct a few of us to help move the furniture in the room every three or five months, saying that it was to change the style. Dad's ashtray was still haphazardly placed on the bedside table, and there was an unfinished cigarette in it. However, the person is gone.
Picking up the garbage on the ground, I remember that my mother always stuffed valuables into a few different places, and told my brother about it, and the two of us tried to find it without moving the original position.
In the pillowcase, I found our family's passbook with 60,000 yuan on it. Touching the passbook, which was already a little broken, I could imagine the happiness in my parents' hearts every time they deposited a sum of money, and they always said, let's both study hard, and the money for college has already been saved.
Suddenly, Hao Hao found a diary in the chest in the closet.
My brother and I sat side by side and opened the diary. What came into view was my mother's familiar handwriting, with occasional words from my father in between.
"Today, Weiwei and Haohao celebrate their birthdays together. Two people fight for a flower on the cake, you fight to the death, haha, it's so funny, girl, when you grow up in the future, this is your black history. ”
"Today, Haohao went to elementary school for the first time, Weiwei led her younger brother to school like a little adult, and the child is getting older and wants to struggle to make money."
"I'm going home late today, I'm getting busier and busier, Weiwei cooked for us to eat, the first time I did it okay, I have to exercise in the future, otherwise how to get married." Hao Hao also poured us foot washing water, with such a pair of children, it is really energetic to do anything. ”
……
Tears flowed down one by one, I couldn't tell whether it was mine or Haohao's, I lost my parents suddenly, no one knew that when I fell asleep at night, my tears always soaked the pillow towel, and I saw Haohao's occasionally red eyes, but I was comforted by the sand and squinted, because we all know that the person who loves us in the world is gone. The two of us are each other's dependents. Just like I wouldn't tell Hao Hao that I was helpless when I worked outside alone in my last life, Hao Hao wouldn't tell me that I ate steamed buns for three months in order to save money.
"Haohao, sister is sorry for you." Thinking of his previous life, because of his cowardice and incompetence, he let his younger brother suffer so much with him, and in this life, his personality has not changed much, Lin Weiwei, you can't make the same mistakes as in your previous life. wiped away my tears, there is still a long way to go, those who have bullied us must let them know that if people don't offend me, I won't offend others!
"Sister, what are you sorry for me? If I am the only one left in our family, I don't think I can even keep our house. Hao Hao comforted me beside me.
While I was sitting there and meditating, a red mark was revealed in the wardrobe because it was accidentally turned over, what was it, I turned it out, and it turned out to be a simple necklace with a vivid phoenix carved on it. There are some unknown patterns next to it, which look faintly like a word.
The two of us looked at the thing and looked at each other, we hadn't heard of it from our parents. Whatever, it will be regarded as an heirloom of our family, and when Haohao gets married in the future, he will pass it on to his brother and daughter-in-law.
"Haohao, let's put this away, and when you get older, when you marry a wife, you will be our heirloom."
"Hey, sister, what are you talking about?" He looked at Haohao's face with an unhappy look, but his ears were very red. I chuckled to myself. It's so nice, one more thing for my parents. In the last life, Hao Hao and the two of us had a new home, and when we thought about decorating the house, we found that there was almost no other thought left by our parents except for a family photo.
"Let's go, Haohao, let's make dumplings. Do you choose to do that? ”
"Do I choose to eat well?"
"It's so beautiful, hurry up and work, otherwise, there will be no good fruit to eat." Pretending to be angry, glared at him, the damn child.
