Chapter 217: Xu Jiazhen's Waiting
Seeing off the old man, Wang Xu was full of emotion.
The old man used to be beautiful, not to mention the dominant, at least he was also a well-known figure in the martial arts.
Thinking of the picture of the old man drooling and not even recognizable to people, Wang Xu also had to sigh at the ruthlessness of the years.
"Prepare the car, I'm going to go out." After learning about the current situation of the martial arts hall and the antique shop, Wang Xu thought of Xu Jiazhen again and planned to go over to take a look.
When she got out of the car at the door, Xu Jiazhen saw her daughter Fengxia before she saw it.
After not seeing her for a year and a half, Feng Xia has grown up a lot, and she is walking home with her schoolbag.
Two little boys about the same age as her chased after her and played, Wang Xu thought it was Feng Xia's playmate at first, but the next second he found that it was not the case.
"Little wild seed, small wild seed, little wild seed without a father." The two little boys jumped and jumped, grimacing around Feng Xia.
Feng Xia lowered her head and didn't speak, just walked forward silently.
The two little boys not only didn't let go of Qiu Xia, but instead dragged her schoolbag left and right, and laughed: "Little wild seed, your schoolbag is so beautiful, did your wild father buy it for you, or did your mother go to steal men again?" ”
"Let go, let go!" Qiu Xia wanted to push the two away, but was pushed to the ground.
Feng Xia didn't cry when she fell to the ground, she just hugged her schoolbag and didn't let the schoolbag be snatched away by the two.
The two little boys dragged hard, snatched the schoolbag in three or two clicks, threw it on the ground, and said loudly: "Your mother steals men, you are not a good person, you are a wild seed!" ”
"I'm not a wild seed, I don't have a wild father!" Qiu Xia got up from the ground and pushed the little boy on the left to his head.
The little boy was pushed to the ground, patted the soil on his body and stood up, and asked rhetorically: "The tuition fee of the school is so expensive, we can't afford to go to school, why can you go to school, it's not that you have a wild father." ”
"I don't have a wild father, you are not allowed to talk nonsense." Feng Xia couldn't help crying, and she was still retorting loudly in her crying.
The little boy stomped on the schoolbag with his foot, and the shoe prints were clearly imprinted on the flower cloth schoolbag, and he scolded unrelentingly: "My mother said, your mother found you a wild father, so you can go to school, otherwise you can't afford to go to school like us." ”
"You talk nonsense, you talk nonsense." Feng Xia picked up a clod of soil from the ground and threw it at the little boy.
"Oops!" The clod of dirt hit the corner of his eye, and the little boy covered his face and eyes in pain.
Feng Xia took this opportunity to run up and grab her schoolbag and run, shouting while running: "I'm not a wild seed, I don't have a wild father." ”
After running a few steps, Feng Xia came to the door and saw Wang Xu standing here.
Wang Xu squatted on the ground, glanced at the two little boys who didn't dare to come up, and asked, "Fengxia, do you still know me?" ”
"Who are you?" I haven't seen her for a year and a half, Feng Xia doesn't know Wang Xu anymore, but she just feels that this person is a little familiar.
As soon as Wang Xu was about to speak, there was a sound of opening the door in his ears, and Xu Jiazhen poked his head out of it.
Seeing Wang Xu, Xu Jiazhen was stunned for a moment, and only after half a sound did he speak: "Why are you here?" ”
"Come and see you." Wang Xu touched Qiuxia's head and asked Xu Jiazhen, "Long time no see, are you okay?" ”
"Come in first." Xu Jiazhen got out of the way and pulled Qiuxia inside.
Wang Xu followed, closed the courtyard door after entering, and followed Xu Jiazhen into the room.
I haven't been here for a year and a half, Xu Jiazhen's home is still the same, and I can't see any changes.
However, Xu Jiazhen was a little haggard, with an indissolvable sorrow in his eyes, as if he was acting under pressure in his heart.
"How's it going?" Wang Xu sat on the kang and lit a cigarette by himself.
Xu Jiazhen hugged Qiuxia and said in a low voice for a long time: "It's okay, I help cook in the antique shop, I come back at noon every morning, and I go to make dinner again in the afternoon, it's very leisurely, and I can usually do something by myself." ”
When saying this, Xu Jiazhen glanced at the cabinet out of the corner of his eye.
Wang Xu followed her gaze and found that there was a pair of scissors on the cabinet and a lot of cut window flowers.
Among them, most of them are blessed characters, a few are golden boys and girls, and there are some various small animals.
Wang Xu walked over and picked up one and looked at it, it was pretty good, so he smiled and said, "When did you learn it?" ”
"For more than half a year, I heard that paper-cutting made money, so I thought about trying to figure it myself. At first, it was not well cut, so it could only be given to others for nothing, but now it is a little bit like this, a piece of paper cut can be sold for a few cents, and it makes a lot of money in a day. Xu Jiazhen lowered her head and looked at her chest, as if she didn't dare to look at Wang Xu.
Wang Xu put down the paper-cut and looked at Xu Jiazhen quietly, and neither of them spoke.
After a while, Qiu Xia was about to do her homework, which broke the peace between the two parties.
"Qiu Xia is good, let's go to the left room to write today, so as not to make you noisy." Xu Jiazhen wanted Qiu Xia to go to the left room, but as soon as he said this, Wang Xu found that Qiu Xia's gaze had changed when she looked at him.
There is doubt, there is disgust, and there is resistance.
Qiu Xia held her schoolbag motionless, her little face was tense, and said, "I'm not going, I'm here." ”
"What's wrong with you?" Qiu Xia's abnormal performance made Xu Jiazhen puzzled, but Wang Xu frowned.
"If you don't go, you just don't go." Qiu Xia looked at Wang Xu viciously, holding her schoolbag and drilling into the kang.
Xu Jiazhen had no choice but to stop caring about her daughter, stand up and go outside.
Seeing Xu Jiazhen's movements, Qiu Xia immediately rushed up and asked, "Mother, where are you going?" ”
"I'll pour you a glass of water for Uncle Wang, you can do your homework well, if you can't finish it, tomorrow the teacher will hit your palm again." Xu Jiazhen replied casually, but before she could go out of the door, Qiu Xia jumped off the kang and hugged her thigh: "I won't let you go." ”
"What's wrong with you kid?" Xu Jiazhen opened his mouth to reprimand, and made Qiu Xiaxun cry with one sentence.
Qiu Xia held Xu Jiazhen's leg with one hand, pointed at Wang Xu with the other, and cried: "Is he your wild man?" ”
"What nonsense?" Xu Jiazhen got angry and dragged Qiuxia away.
Qiu Xia hugged him again and cried loudly: "You said that my tuition was given by Uncle Wang, is this Uncle Wang, is he your wild man, do you want to break your shoes with him?" ”
"Smack!" Xu Jiazhen raised his hand and slapped Qiu Xia to the ground, with tears in her eyes.
After all, Qiu Xia was still young, and she didn't understand her mother's distress at all, so she sat on the ground and cried, saying, "I don't go to school anymore, you let him go, let him go, I don't want a wild father." ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xu Jiazhen held back his anger, and the mountain peaks on his chest rose and fell violently.
Qiu Xia sat on the ground and cried, crying and said: "I'm not talking nonsense, everyone says that I am a wild seed, you steal men outside for me to go to school, and you want to find me a wild father." Mother, I don't want a wild father, I don't go to school anymore. ”
When Xu Jiazhen heard this, tears fell instantly.
How hard she has lived all these years, how hard she has waited, only she knows.
Xu Jiazhen was not angry when others said these words, but it was her daughter who was said so, the daughter she had worked so hard to bring up, how could Xu Jiazhen not be sad, if she couldn't bear the loneliness, she wouldn't stay in this courtyard, waiting for Xu Fugui to come back.
"Qiuxia, what outsiders say can't be believed." Looking at Xu Jiazhen's appearance, Wang Xu sighed and put Qiuxia on the kang: "Your mother is the best mother in the world, you never know how much she loves you, don't say these words next time, lest your mother be sad." ”
Qiu Xia sobbed in a low voice, pushed Wang Xu's hand away, and cried on the quilt by herself.
Wang Xu looked at Xu Jiazhen who wiped his tears, and had a lot of things to say in his heart, but he couldn't open his mouth when the words came to his lips, and only after half a sound did he ask in a low voice: "Have you found Fugui?" ”
Xu Jiazhen didn't speak, just shook his head slightly.
Wang Xu fell silent for the second time, and only said after a long time: "Don't wait, he won't come back." ”
