41: Hit the south wall
Zhao Xun saw his father standing at the entrance of the village from a distance.
In the cold wind, a black leather jacket, a motorcycle, and a little sunset afterglow are full of loneliness.
Zhao Xun didn't dare to say anything, so he walked over slowly, lowering his head.
"Well, what about your mother?"
"My mom she, my mom she, she said she wouldn't come back first."
"What? What's that? She said she wouldn't come back? ”
"Hmm......" Zhao Xun was so frightened by his father's roar that he completely lost his voice.
"Not coming back? What the hell does she mean? Just because I drank some wine and touched her? Have you seen your mom and her parents? ”
"See, I went, they were about to cook."
"Then what did you tell your mother! Did you do what I taught you? ”
"I, I said it, I said it, I just said it exactly as you taught me."
"Then you said what I said, then why hasn't your mother come back yet?"
"I, I ......"
"Are you dumb? Can't speak? Every time you can't say anything about this kind of question, I think you really want to you off to death. ”
Zhao Xun still stammered and couldn't say anything, maybe he grew up in this kind of scolding since he was a child, so he was used to such a living environment.
If it was someone else's child, it is estimated that he would have cried in fright, but now although Zhao Xun is still there, he still stares at his father with two big eyes.
As soon as his father raised his hand, Zhao Xun was so frightened that he squatted directly on the ground, and then shouted for his father to beg for mercy.
"Dad, Dad, Dad, you tap, you tap."
The father looked at this, and then looked at a few old men and old women sitting around the stone steps in the distance, thinking that it was in someone else's village, if he beat the child like this, it would not let the family see the joke.
"Come on, come on, I didn't want to hit you, hurry up, you ...... like this"
Father suddenly pulled Zhao up and pulled her ears over, as if he was going to whisper something.
After a while, my father rode away abruptly on a motorcycle, leaving Zhao to stand alone.
Zhao Xun looked at his father who was getting farther and farther away, although he was standing in a strange village, looking at these strange people, but he finally didn't have the horror and horror of his father's scolding beside him.
In fact, it was on this night that the rest of the story was laid.
Zhao Xun didn't know a certain family in this village, so he simply took advantage of his burden and walked over to the grandparents who were sitting and chatting at the entrance of the village.
At that time, Zhao Xun was still a child after all, and he wouldn't say anything, and he wouldn't ask if there were any kind people who could take her home for a meal, or preferably sleep in someone's house for one night.
"Who is this kid?"
"Come on, come on, kid, who are you looking for?"
"Whose kid is this? It's not like the children of people who come to visit relatives in our village! ”
"yes, we've never seen this kid before, and it's going to rain, where have you gone?"
……
Zhao Xun was silent.
Some good people began to chatter non-stop, and there were no specific people who could do things, just talking cool words there, and they couldn't wait as if they were waiting for a drama.
Everyone also wants to see whose house this abandoned ugly duckling came from.
From the three or five passers-by just now, they gradually formed a small circle, a big circle.
I guess all the people from a small village have gathered at the head of the village.
Zhao Xun, who has been soaking in the bone tube since he was a child, can be said to have seen a lot of this kind of scene, and it can also be said that he is not strange.
Zhao Xun is not afraid of strangers at all, just blink his two big eyes and open a pair of ears to listen to what they say, maybe let them help something.
Maybe this is the innocence of children, always thinking that when you show a pitiful and helpless appearance, there will be kind people to help you.
However, you are wrong, child, when you show the weak and helpless side, maybe the only thing around you can bring you is mean and bitter or even cold eyes.
Because there is no one who can reach out to fight alongside you, or maybe that person has not yet appeared.
In short, they didn't show a hint of pity.
Or maybe it's only when you've experienced these things that you really know what hopelessness is.
It turned out that Zhao Xun's father had just come over to Zhao Xun's ear and told Zhao Xun that he would let her stay at her mother's house tonight, and if she didn't believe it, her mother wouldn't follow her home.
Father asked Zhao to find no matter what method he used, when her father came over tomorrow, she would have to call her mother home.
So she was left here alone.
Although Zhao Xun is a little yellow-haired girl, at least she can still distinguish clearly.
Thinking about the treatment that Zhao found in her mother's house during the day, she naturally knew in her heart that she was not to be treated by others.
Maybe that's the case, life is full of surprises and panic no matter what.
Just when everyone was talking, suddenly a woman in her early 40s said:
"I know the man who sent the child over on a motorcycle just now, isn't he the Beijing man who married the little girl of the old Zhang family! This must be someone's child! ”
"What? Sister Liu, I think you're talking nonsense, it's not been 3 years since Xiao Zhang got married, why didn't I hear when her mother had a child, and this child looks like he must be about 6 or 7 years old! ”
"Isn't it!"
"Yes, yes, this is definitely not the child of the two of them!"
"Mom, that's really funny! Hahaha. ”
A round man with a fat head and big ears laughed, and the fat on the back of his head was still shaking up and down with the vibration of the sound waves.
"What? Haven't you heard? In order to marry a daughter-in-law for his second son, Lao Zhang married the little girl to a second-married man, I guess, this child must be the child born to that man and his ex-wife! ”
"I said, two days ago, when I passed by Lao Zhangtou's house, I saw Lao Zhang's little girl coming home, and I asked to go back to my parents' house, and I stayed for a few days and didn't leave, she wouldn't run back to her parents' house, right?"
"Really? So they won't be divorced, right? Now that the city is young, it's really impossible to say! ”
"Not to mention the city, there are still a lot of people stealing people in that village!"
It was the old man who was sitting at the entrance of the village early in the morning who said this, and everyone glanced back at the old man, but there was no response anyway, as if they hadn't heard.
"That's a lot of information today! Hahaha. ”
"Alright, alright, don't fix these useless little children."
A man of uncle's age said this, and then carried his hoe and walked away.
A group of people who were watching the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal still stayed there and gossiped.
Some are carrying hoes and coming back, some are pushing bicycles, there is a tanned baby on the Louzi in the saddle, and some people who cut a sack to feed the cow grass have also stopped, ** a naked row of people eating melons.
Everyone wants to wait for this child to solve the mystery in people's hearts, even if no matter who makes this child stunned, he can't say a word.
That is, let them guess.
Zhao Xun listened to their babbling or not, the only thought in her heart now was whether there was a kind person who could give her a little food, even if it was just a cold steamed bun, because she was really hungry.
Later, the group of people hugged Zhao to Lao Zhang's house.
When the stepmother saw that there were so many people standing at the gate, even Zhao Xun was standing in the middle of them, and the stepmother was anxious all of a sudden.
ran out of the house in three steps and two steps, jumped out directly, and dragged Zhao Xun into the house.
Whoever the neighbors were talking about over there left them out of the door.
Zhao Xun saw that her stepmother dragged her into the house, and she was still secretly happy in her heart, she felt that this trick really worked, she knew that she would come over by herself, how could she use someone else to escort her over like this.
Zhao Xun stood on the edge of the door at the door of his house, looking at the rice cloth on the kang, presumably the family was eating dinner just now.
Smelling the strong smell of rice, there seemed to be a heavy fire burning in her heart, and she suddenly felt that she was about to lose her waist.
She was thinking about going over and taking a look at what they were eating, and it would be nice if she could get a bite of it.
The stepmother saw that the people were almost gone, and suddenly roared loudly.
"You dead boy! Who told you to run to my house? Don't you think it's enough to embarrass me? You dare to come to my door to be embarrassed, I see, you are just like your dead ghost father! ”
"Mom, don't be angry, I don't want you to be embarrassed, I am."
"You are what you are, you are what you are! I think you're a thing that no one preached, so you should hurry up and let me go. ”
"Mom, I beg you, don't drive me away, I beg you, I beg you."
Zhao Xun saw that something was wrong with his stepmother, and immediately begged for mercy in a low voice, and she could still see the public relations reason for getting along in the past few years.
But how can she bear that her stepmother is angry at this time, she thinks that it is Zhao who has made their family lose face.
"Don't call me Mom, I'm not your mother, and I haven't given birth to a child like you!"
"Mom, I just want you to go back, and Dad wants you to go home too."
"What do you know about our adult affairs, don't worry about it, you can go back to me wherever it comes from!"
"Oh, look at you, what kind of competition you have with a child, don't do this." Kind mom interrupted.
"Mom, I said it, you just let me handle this matter myself, you and Dad had better not interfere, otherwise I really can't imagine what else I can do."
The stepmother's parents looked at their daughter and said so firmly, and they were afraid that they would force their children in the end, and if something out of the ordinary came out, it would be worth the loss.
So they didn't dare to say anything more.
The stepmother looked outside the door and pushed Zhao Xun out of the door, and Zhao Xun happened to be facing a south wall.
