Volume 1 Chapter 41: The Lantern Festival

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yingying threw her phone on the bed, returned to the living room, and sat next to her sister to prepare breakfast.

"Hey, by the way, Auntie, Linlin hasn't caused you trouble in the past two days, right?" Qi Hongmei, who was sitting on the sofa with her husband Duanmu Song, said kind words to Li Qin.

"No, no, Linlin, this kid is very sensible, but he doesn't help us with housework, seriously, Xiaomei, Xiaosong......" Li Qin responded happily, and when she said the last words, her tone became a little sobbing as if she remembered some old things.

While talking, the old man's slightly bloodshot eyes looked at Liu Yingying and the sisters from time to time, Liu Yingying and her sister raised their heads when they heard that their grandmother had changed their tone, and so did Duanmulin.

Liu Yingying seemed to guess what her grandmother was thinking, so she got up and went to the coffee table next to the sofa, picked up the TV remote control with a protective case embroidered with patterns, and adjusted the sound of the TV from 47 to 10.

"I have always regarded Linlin as my own granddaughter, my two granddaughters, my father is gone, my mother is gone, especially Yingying, their father passed away since she was a child, Yingying, this child has always been reluctant to make friends, since I met your family Linlin, this child has become much more cheerful, Xiaosong, Xiaomei, this is the New Year, our family has nothing to give you, I thank you on behalf of our family." Li Qin was full of relief and said to Duanmu and his wife, her voice kept sobbing when she spoke, everyone wanted to comfort her, but every time she made a gesture to comfort, she waved her hand to stop her.

As he spoke, he stood up from his seat, his legs in cotton pants slowly arching forward.

"Hey, auntie, don't do this!" Seeing this, Duanmu and his wife hurriedly opened their eyes wide, spoke in unison, and hurriedly held Li Qin's hands to straighten her up.

"Grandma, what are you doing?" Liu Yingying said it before her sister and Duanmulin.

Liu Yingying looked helplessly at her grandmother who was constantly crying, her cherry-like little red lips were also trembling slightly, and her two black and bright apricot eyes and nose began to glow with heavy acidity.

She remembered an incident when she was in junior high school, and that incident remained in her heart forever like an imprint.

"Get up! Dead girl! Look at what you shaved me! ”

In the memory, slowly, a dark, distorted man's face emerged, and the piercing anger in his ear.

Liu Yingying's immature arm was rudely grabbed by the man, and that hand was like an eagle's claws, and he suddenly dragged Liu Yingying, who was nearly one meter six tall, from the ground.

The man was extremely angry, pointing his finger at the door of his black Mercedes Benz, and a long white scratch was faintly visible on the door.

"See for yourself, I'm a Mercedes! Say, what to do? The man gasped and lowered his tone, but it didn't dampen his anger in the slightest.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, you forgive me, my car tire just punctured, and I fell and hit your car's ......" Liu Yingying kept apologizing in her immature childish voice, and the panic made her tremble uncontrollably.

There was a light green bicycle lying next to it, with a nail stuck in the tire, and the tire was still spinning, and it turned for a while before slowly stopping.

It so happened that Li Qin was on the side of the street, wearing a sanitation worker's vest and holding a big broom in both hands.

"Forgiveness? Hmph, do you know how much my car costs? The man was still unrelenting, and said fiercely to Liu Yingying, whose height only reached his chest.

"No...... I don't know...... Uncle, I really didn't mean it, please forgive me......" Liu Yingying cried and said to the man, this year, she and her sister have been living with her grandmother, her mother went to work far away, and the family's financial source has always been maintained by her grandmother's job as a street sweeper, Liu Yingying of course knows that the price of Mercedes-Benz cars is expensive, which is a world of difference for their family.

"What happened, young man? This is my granddaughter, and I am her grandmother. Seeing this situation, Li Qin hurriedly walked over from across the road, and politely asked the iron-faced Mercedes-Benz man.

Liu Yingying heard her grandmother's voice, sobbing and opened her two crying red eyes, while the Mercedes-Benz man saw Li Qin and didn't speak, first looked Li Qin's outfit up and down.

"Heh, hahahaha!" After looking at it, the Mercedes man suddenly laughed.

"It turned out to be a stinky street sweeper, old woman, your granddaughter scraped my car, come and come, come and see, do you know what kind of car this is? Yes! ”

The Mercedes-Benz man grabbed Li Qin's collar and came to the front of his car, pointing at the shiny car logo, his tone was still so arrogant and unreasonable.

"Young man, your car should be expensive, right? Auntie is a street sweeper, and she doesn't have much money, ah yes, Yingying, come here, did you deliberately scrape your uncle's car? ”

Li Qin said anxiously to the Mercedes-Benz man, and then solemnly called Liu Yingying, who was lifting the bicycle, over.

Although it did scratch the other party's car, Liu Yingying really didn't mean it, Liu Yingying sobbed and told her grandmother what happened.

"Young man." Li Qin said helplessly, then put her hand into the inner pocket of her clothes, took out a few hundred-yuan bills, and guiltily grabbed the sweat-stained hand of the Mercedes-Benz man, stuffed the money into his hand, and then said: "Auntie just has such a little money, my granddaughter really didn't mean it, I'm really sorry, young man, auntie, please forgive my granddaughter." ”

"Fuck off! Don't get my clothes dirty, my clothes are very expensive, you rotten person at the bottom of society, phew! ”

The Mercedes-Benz man was even more violent, shook off Li Qin's hand, and spit on the ground in disgust.

"Lao Tzu doesn't lack this little money, poor than poor, okay, old woman, so be it." The Mercedes man said impatiently, then raised his right leg and stepped on his door. "Either you get through my crotch today, or kneel down for me, and we'll pull it down, you choose."

"Don't go too far!" Liu Yingying couldn't hold back anymore, looked at this scoundrel and shouted.

It's really a big forest, there are all kinds of birds, and when the pit is big, there are all maggots.

"Get out of here, little dead girl!"

In the end, Li Qin shook her head silently in desperation, tightly held her wrinkled and calloused hands, and slowly knelt down.

In the end, the Mercedes-Benz man drove away with cold eyes, and Liu Yingying and Li Qin, who were choking on the thick exhaust fume, kept coughing.

Thinking of this, Liu Yingying ended her memories as if she was tortured, and the two rows of waterfall-like tears in her eyes fell on the clean floor.

Except for Liu Yingying, who was still standing there, the rest of the people were sitting on the sofa comforting Li Qin, they didn't know, even Liu Shuangshuang didn't know what kind of tragedy Liu Yingying and Li Qin had encountered.

After another 12 hours, this year's Spring Festival will come to a grand end, and today's noon is the hottest perfect, most peaceful, most lively and most memorable one in the history of this imperfect family.

At night, the stars follow the moon to the night sky, watching the fireworks rising in the city, the city is full of lights, traffic, children's play, adults' conversations, resounding throughout the pedestrian street.

"Why don't you go home to celebrate the New Year with your uncle and aunt?"

Liu Yingying walked to the right of Dongfang Dusk Dragon, and asked in a soft voice, wearing the bright red winter hat embroidered by her grandmother, and a little cold snowflakes drifted in front of her delicate face.

"My family has relatives, and I don't want to listen to them, and I have too much good with my sister."

Dongfang Dulong looked back and said ambiguously, the winter night was cold, but his warm smile was like a fire in winter, and the funny words made Liu Yingying laugh cutely.

"You know what? I haven't been home for a while, I've been living in my family's previous house, angry with my dad, you don't know, I have a bad relationship with my dad, last time Xu Yanyan happened, I still ...... Ha ha...... I almost got into a fight with my dad. ”

Dongfang Dusk Dragon's bland and watery tone couldn't help but laugh at the end.

"Two days ago...... Forget it, let's not talk about it. Liu Yingying wanted to mention the events of the previous two days, but she didn't want to talk about it.

"What happened the last two days?" Dongfang Dulong asked curiously, but his expression was very questioning, because he saw that Liu Yingying's attitude was a little resolute, and he was not particularly happy, he naturally wanted to know what was going on, in his heart, Liu Yingying's heart was more important than her happiness.

Liu Yingying was silent, looking at the falling snowflakes and listening to the rumbling fireworks in the sky, until she walked out of the pedestrian street, Dongfang Duilong still licked her frozen and somewhat pale lips and continued to ask.

"What's wrong? Is it my wife? If yes, just tell me, or we'll leave it alone. ”

Dongfang Duilong deliberately teased, how can it be said that the two have also kissed, just at this point, Dongfang Duilong dares to joke like this, otherwise, Liu Yingying is now in this family, and she is still wronged by her father, so she must die of sadness?

Sure enough, being teased by Dongfang Dusk Dragon like this, Liu Yingying finally laughed out loud, although it was a bitter smile, but she still happily pinched Dongfang Dusk Long's cold and white face that was blown by the wind.

"Let's go somewhere and talk." Liu Yingying proposed, and then walked towards the path of her primary school, overtaking the Eastern Dusk Dragon.

Liu Yingying's community is only two streets away from the school, on the road, Liu Yingying is like an innocent child, while running, while grabbing a ball of snow on the ground, laughing and throwing it to the Oriental Dusk Dragon, the Oriental Dusk Dragon is not to be outdone, making a gloomy expression, hitting back with a snowball in the back, there are no cars along the way, and more coincidentally, whenever the two pass through the street, it is like God is also looking at the man and woman in the sky, so they don't let the appearance of the vehicle disturb the two, therefore, the two of them have no vehicles at all when they pass through the street, This is full of the taste of childhood, and it has not dissipated for a moment.

Chased to the two-story building opposite the primary school of the two, Liu Yingying and Dongfang Dulong came to the roof along the iron staircase outside, the edge of the roof did not have any protective measures such as guardrails, Liu Yingying's feet slipped and almost fell from the roof, letting out a lovely exclamation, but was grabbed by Dongfang Dulong.

Tired of playing, Liu Yingying and Dongfang Duilong sat on the snow on the roof, laughing at each other, exhaling white ha, two pairs of white palms without gloves pressed on the snow, although it was biting cold, but there were two fiery hearts beating, it was enough.
