Cao Ge stood at the door, she put her hand next to the door, thought about it, but retracted it and let go, she turned her head and asked me, "Do you have the key?" I shook my head before she knocked on the door. It seemed that she was afraid that the knock on the door would disturb her mother's rest, so the knock was not very strong. However, this old building has been empty for a long time after all, especially on such a gloomy morning, in this slightly melancholy atmosphere, even the slightest sound is particularly harsh.

Cao Ge knocked 3 times, and when he saw that there was no movement in the house, he knocked on the door for the second time. There was the sound of slow footsteps in the house, and it sounded like the mother was dragging her shoes as she walked. After her mother opened the door, she found that it was Cao Ge, which was obviously very surprised.

I saw from my mother's side, she was slightly stunned, and reluctantly laughed a little: "Why are you here?" Cao Ge hurriedly took his mother's hand and walked into the house: "Sister, are you okay?" Did it burn again last night? ”

"Not bad, much better."

Mother and Cao Ge turned around and entered the house, and after walking two steps, the mother suddenly turned around and stuck her head out of the door, looking in the direction of the stairs. I know who she's looking for, she's looking for me. For my mother, I don't have too much intimacy with her, but whenever she sees me, she is at ease.

The mother's state is not what she says is okay. After all, I still know about my mother's body. Mother's so-called okay is just relative, and for the fever like last night, it must be good for now. In fact, compared with a normal and completely healthy person, she can still see that she is weak from the perspective of her face and spirit.

Cao Ge comforted his mother: "Don't worry, sister, this spirit and vitality god, you still have to take your time." But, sister, last night you said, you often have a fever? You didn't check your body last time, I'll take you there today? The driver is downstairs. There is no need to ask, and the mother politely refused: "I have a fever, talking nonsense, you can believe it." Ha ha. ”

Cao Cancan entered my mother's house before me.

But when she stepped her left leg into the room, she suddenly stopped. I was close behind her, and her sudden action almost caused me to almost crash into her. She just stood in the doorway, stunned. Suddenly, she turned around and pushed me out, startling me: "Cao Muxi, don't tell me that you grew up in this house since you were a child?" ”

I nodded. Cao Cancan's mouth opened wide: "No!" In, in, right here? "There's nothing that won't." I smiled faintly, and in a small voice. I was afraid of disturbing my mother and Cao Ge who were talking in the house.

"Here, it's scary!" Cao Cancan was still a little stunned.

"Actually, except for a little bit of breakage, it's not scary." I faintly returned.

Cao Cancan still seemed to want to say something to me, but after opening his mouth, he still chose to close it. It seemed to her that she didn't know how to express her true intentions. Actually, I know in my heart that if you take the antagonistic relationship between her and me when I first entered the Cao family, Cao Cancan must be the kind of person who is not shocking at this time, and she must be looking at me with great disdain now, and laughing and sarcastic. And now, although Cao Cancan seems so out of place in this environment, judging from her attitude of pursing her mouth twice to express her helplessness, perhaps, there will be a kind of pity in it.

I smiled softly, and Cao Cancan swallowed his saliva and lowered his head slightly for a few seconds.

We just stood facing each other, leaning against the railing behind us.

Cao Ge suddenly leaned inside and shouted, "What are you two doing outside?" Come in! Cao Cancan sighed, glanced at me, and turned into the house.

"Auntie, you seem to be much better." Mother smiled and nodded, "Yes." Thank you. Mother's thank you made Cao Cancan scratch his head: "Oh, ah, auntie, I'm embarrassed for your thanks." Hey. ”

Mother smiled again.

"Have you eaten? You guys? Came over so early in the morning? ”

"I came out early today, so I drank milk, but sister, you don't have to be busy. It's you, have you eaten? ”

"Leave me alone, no appetite." Mother replied simply.

"Don't have an appetite? You have to eat it, too! Why don't I ask the driver to buy you some? What would you like to eat? I can't take medicine without eating? ”

"Not really. Leave me alone. It's these two children, did they eat? It's going to school in a moment. ”

"Sister, it's okay, they will go to school to eat later. Don't worry about it. "How can you eat well outside? Why don't I go and make something. As he spoke, he was about to get up, but Cao Ge grabbed his mother: "Sister, you can rest quickly." I said it, I just came to see you, don't delay you too long, and these two children will go to school in a while. I'll be with you for a while and I'll go back. ”

The mother couldn't resist Cao Ge, so she didn't speak again.

During the conversation with Cao Ge, my mother glanced at me twice, just opposite my eyes. I subconsciously chose to escape, it felt like I was running away from Aunt Qin's gaze in the morning, and at this time, I was also running away from my mother.

Cao Ge knew that her mother's body was very weak after she had a fever, so she didn't dare to chat with her mother too much, for fear of disturbing her rest. When I looked up at the clock on the wall, it was exactly 6:30, because I hadn't written my homework yet, so Cao Cancan and I made excuses and left first.

When I was leaving, I didn't even dare to look into my mother's eyes. Just don't look over it, turn around and hurry downstairs.

When he came out of the alley, Cao Cancan obviously talked a lot less. She walked in front of me with her head bowed, looking back at me from time to time, but not speaking. I can actually know in my heart that this girl just wants to sigh about my childhood life, and give rise to some pity. As for mercy, I have seen too much, one more is not too much, and one less is not too much, and I have no less than that, I have not taken it seriously.

Actually, I really can't tell whether my steps are easy or heavy after I walk out of the old house again. I took my bag off my shoulder and carried it in my hand. and Cao Cancan, the two of them entered the school gate one after the other. Just as I was about to separate, Cao Cancan suddenly stopped me: "Cao Muxi? That, you haven't eaten it in the morning, what do you want to eat? I shook my head.
