Chapter IV

Ming Heli's life doesn't know whether it is the arrangement of fate or the arrangement of his parents, the two mothers chose to be confined in their parents' house after being discharged from the hospital, and then they have been living in their parents' house. Both of them were reluctant to let their mother-in-law take them because of their respective family circumstances, Chen Li originally planned to let her mother take the child, but she still wanted to be interesting, her mother-in-law had already brought two children at that time, one was a daughter's, the other was a child's, and the youngest son's wife was about to give birth recently. In fact, Chen Li knew that her mother-in-law disagreed, but who knew that her mother-in-law's words angered her again, saying, "Isn't your mother willing to take it?" Your brother and sister are about to give birth, I really can't spare my hands here, she is an old lady who is not lonely at home, how good it is to have a nephew and grandson to accompany me, or I will go and talk to your mother", she had a stomach of words that she wanted to say, but because she also asked out of politeness, she didn't expect to be hurt by her words again. Just said, "You disliked me at the beginning and couldn't give birth, but now you don't want to take it, why is Li Ming not your grandson, is Li Yajun your own child?" Why are you so partial, don't you think our husband and wife are easy to bully?"

Mother-in-law said, "When did I say that you can't give birth, who did you listen to, and besides, you haven't had children for several years of marriage", Chen Li was embarrassed to say ugly words, after all, the other party is her mother-in-law, if you really want to quarrel who loses and who wins, think about it or put down her anger and leave, in the years when she just got married, of course, her mother-in-law complained to others that she couldn't have children, once saw her passing by, pointed to the rooster and said, "What's the use of raising you for 3-4 years, you won't even lay an egg."

Chen Jing had no choice, either to raise her mother-in-law in the countryside, or to take it with her own mother, of course she didn't want her children to go to the countryside, and the old man had already brought several children from her husband's brother, so she arranged for her mother to take care of them. The two families are not far apart, and when they are not there, the two old people and their children often play together. Chen Jing because her husband works in other places, the two husbands and wives can't often separate, when Xiao Sili was about 2 years old, she also went to be with her husband, and she came back a few times a year, and she was reluctant to give up her daughter every time. Chen Li and Li Yajun because of the reform and opening up, they want to do a little bit of their own thing, and they often go out early and return late, but they are close, so they will often go over to see the truth and reason. In order to make a good life for the two children, or let them live a good life on their own, the parents of the two families have only each other for a long time.

The two families are not having children in the back for some reasons, and the two children are together, and a lot of interesting things will happen, some things will be seen and remembered by adults, and some things will not be remembered by adults if they do not see them. Once when he was more than three years old, Ming snatched the candy and was seen by two mothers, I don't know if I saw my mother or the candy was robbed and Li Li cried. Ming ran away as soon as he saw his mother coming, and he waited there when he ran to the door of the house, and the candy in his mouth was already eaten. The grandmothers heard the crying outside and came out to take a look, and found that their daughter was coming, and they told them about the candy that Ming had just snatched, and the grandmother said, "Why did you come here together today", and the two said, "We just met outside and came in together."

Ming's grandmother said, "Your son is like his grandmother, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard", and even her mother said this, Chen Li said to Ming, "You can't be like your grandmother, do you know?" Li Li is your future daughter-in-law, you can't bully her, and you can't let others bully her, can you? Otherwise, Li Li will not want to marry you in the future."

Lili's mother said right behind, "If my old Xiao knows it, I won't agree even more, but there is no way for our family Lili to agree with it, do you like Brother Mingming, do you like it?" Li Li said "I like it", and then the whole family laughed, so young must not understand what my mother said, just follow the answer, and then Li Ming's mother asked him, "Mingming, Li Li likes you, do you like Li Li". Obviously said "I like it", but my mother said, "You like the candy in Lili's hand".

Grandma came to play the round, and said that the two children were also older, and they could understand these words, after all, the children were brought by them, and the children could really understand what you said. Ming's mother reminds him every time he comes over, his brother can't be so stingy, can't bully his sister, protect his sister, don't rob his sister's candy and eat it, and so on.

Lili's father works in the government department, and his mother has been transferred frequently, so there is no way to take care of her, so he has been sent to his grandmother's house; Although Mingming's parents are in the county seat, the family conditions are not good, and they have been running around and have no time to take care of Ming. Of course, the parents of the two families also think that they live well together, and they have not taken them back until they go to school, and whoever has time will go over to see, and the parents on both sides treat the two children as their own children; No matter what food you brought in the past, try to discuss it, both children have it. The parents of both families also often taught them to help each other, and they would also listen to some of the recent events with the two children, and they would praise the two children together. Parents are often not around, Ming Ming and Li are slowly growing up, knowing that it is each other who is together every day, so their relationship is better than that of their parents, and even some things that happen later cannot be told to their parents, they can only share with each other.

The two of them have been going to school together, getting out of class together, going home together, and doing homework together from kindergarten to elementary school. Mingming's parents later had a more stable job and wanted to pick up Mingming, but they didn't choose to ask Mingming, but asked Lili's parents, if they wanted to pick up the children, both families would take the children away, because of the nature of Lili's parents' work, they couldn't take care of the children for the time being. Since they don't pick it up, both families won't pick it up, so the time is dragging on year by year.

The two of them, their parents never asked them, and the four of them decided by themselves. When I was a child, the two of them didn't know about these things, but when they grew up, they also understood and asked their parents that they wanted to live with their parents, and the answer given by their parents was always that they were working hard, and they would soon be able to live with their parents. Gradually, they understood that these were all prevarications from their parents, and it was okay that their parents came five or six times a month, and Lili's parents might have to celebrate the holidays, or come back for the New Year, even if their parents didn't have time to accompany her during the summer and winter vacations. In addition to staying for a day or two when they usually come to see them, Mingming's parents will pick up the two of them for a period of time during the holidays. I sometimes ask my parents, "When can I live with you often?"

Obviously, my mother's eternal answer is "When Lili's parents have a stable job, we will take you all home", and she will also say something like "Take you back now, what if Lili is alone at Grandma's house, are you willing to be alone at Grandma's house?" Are you willing to let your grandmother be alone", of course, knowing what his parents said to him, he slowly understood, and asked him not to tell Lili. But every time Ming will tell Li, and Li will also inquire about the situation on his parents' side and tell Ming to see whose parents are lying again. Because they have been promised by their parents too many times, they have become less expectant, and they will not tell their parents what is in their hearts, nor will they ask their parents when we can live together, and they will say that they will come when they see their parents. It's not as cheerful and happy as before, in their opinion, maybe the child has been disappointed too many times, or maybe the child has grown up so that's why it's like this, in fact, in Ming Heli's heart, I've always thought that these liars are here again.

Because unlike other children, parents are around, their relationship is always incomparable to other classmates and friends, the children in the main neighborhood rarely see Lili's parents, sometimes some people say that Lili is a child that their parents don't want, and they will help Li or even beat others together, for a long time they are a collective, reasoning is explaining, explaining is reasoning. When they are a little older, both adults and children in the neighborhood will remind them that men and women are not kissed. There are also other children who joke about whether the two of you are in love, why your parents don't usually see it, and so on. At the beginning, they would start beating people, whether it was near home or at school, and after the fight, they could let the two grandmothers apologize, and then the classmates were together for a long time, and the relationship became better. Because the two of them always have the best grades in the class, they were praised by the teacher all the way in elementary school, and because of this, their parents have always been relieved to put them on their grandmother's side.

Parents also know that they have not been with me all these years, they are also very guilty, they have been looking for a balance, has not been found, and later Ming's parents have proposed to say, "Take the two children to live with me, and when it is convenient for you, you will come directly to my house to take care of it." However, the mother said that their plan was not carried out, and then she wanted to ask us for our opinions, and we said, "It's good here, we are still free, and what if we leave our grandmother." After a few back-and-forth discussions, my parents agreed that we would stay, and my parents would have such an idea because Lili's grandmother's physical condition has not been very good recently, and we are about to go to junior high school, and Ming's parents think that we can take care of ourselves, so they put forward such an idea.
