The weather in Nanjing, at the beginning of November, could not have reached the point of cold, but it may have been with the death of Aunt Qin, in the autumn of that year, Aunt Qin took away the residual warmth in everyone's hearts.

After Aunt Qin's funeral was dealt with, the entire Cao family fell into a deep silence for a while. It seems that everyone, including my father, has something to say but doesn't know where to start. Eating and sleeping every day has basically become a routine, and even when everyone meets, they basically don't say anything unless necessary.

Cao Ge was sad and insomnia because of Aunt Qin'er's suicide, and she found someone to get nearly a whole box of tranquilizers, which she took every day, but I saw that she was still tired and mindless every day. Grandma rarely goes downstairs except for eating, and even sometimes when she is unwell, the meals are solved directly upstairs.

My father didn't talk much at home in the past, but after Aunt Qin left, my father almost slept on the sofa, except for going upstairs to change clothes, he was basically isolated from the second floor. If I had to choose between being afraid and thinking about things, I would choose the first one. Because, he once said at the dinner table that after Aunt Qin was gone, he often had nightmares, dreaming that Aunt Qin was always chasing after him in his dreams and asking questions. At that time, Cao Ge asked: "What are you asking?" The father did not answer. You don't have to think about it to know why you're not interested.

Cao Cancan, lost his soul. The original plan to go back to school to see my jokes never came true. Actually, I'd rather Aunt Jean live while she now taunts and ridicules me, resents and curses me. It's a pity that what ifs is always what ifs, and it doesn't hold. Wu's mother accompanies Cao Cancan almost every inch, and when she looks out of the window every day, she will suddenly close the curtain and tell Wu's mother: "Look, there is a moon during the day, and there is also a moon during the day, right?!" Wu's mother sometimes couldn't help crying when she saw Cao Cancan looking so depressed, but every time Cao Cancan wiped it dry with paper as quickly as possible: "Don't cry, can't cry!" My mom said, can't cry! No one can cry! As soon as you cry, it's cloudy, and there is no moon on a cloudy day. Therefore, when Mama Wu and Mama Liu went downstairs to cook in shifts, she always covered her mouth and went downstairs with red circles.

Cao Ge and Xue Hao tried to take Cao Cancan to the hospital, but failed. Cao Cancan yelled at them at the time: "I miss my mother, is it sick?!" In a word, Xue Hao and Cao Ge did not move. Later, they tried to take her out for a trip and relaxation, but they also failed. In Cao Cancan's eyes, her mother will definitely not leave Nanjing because of her nostalgia, so in the whole of China, only the moon over Nanjing has her own mother.

After Aunt Qin's death, her mother never came back. But I heard Xue Hao say that my mother was sick, firstly, because it was too cold this day, and secondly, because of Aunt Qin'er. But I didn't go back to see her, even though I still went to school as usual, and at that time, I had no other choice but to go to school, and there was no other way to escape the dark building of the Cao family.

The school was still full of disdain for me. Although it is claimed that Aunt Qin died of a heart attack, the eyes of the masses are bright, and the ears of the masses can penetrate thousands of miles away. The neighbors on the left and right quickly saw the clue when they ran to the funeral, and then the news spread.

When the news spread throughout the campus that the wife of the deputy director of the Urban Construction Bureau had chosen to commit suicide because of the humiliation of her illegitimate child, I basically skipped school for nearly half a month.

When such a big thing happened at home, the head teacher would not call me to ask me, so during that time, after Uncle Zhao sent me to the school gate, I always ran towards the school gate when he turned around and left. Looking back on those days now, it was really the world's biggest, and there was no place for me.

Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention Zhang Jing and Cao Qi. Aunt Qin's matter doesn't seem to have any impact on Zhang Jing, and it is impossible to say that she is not sad and guilty, but this woman herself is a person with a clear purpose for what she wants. Since that time Cao Qi had a showdown with her, Zhang Jing knew that his trick of biting back was useless. So, she started to change tactics. Zhang Jing spends a lot of time every day dressing herself carefully, and even goes out to socialize when Cao Chen is in kindergarten, she tries to get to know more of the director's wife, and then squeezes herself into half of the political circle through her network. Yes, she wants to prove that what a courtesan can do, she Zhang Jing can also do. Of course, I don't know much about her effectiveness, but rumors about her ability to climb high outside have reached Cao Qi's ears again and again.

I heard Cao Qi once say to Zhang Jing in the kitchen, "Can you stop a little!" There is such a big thing in the family, you are a big mother, can't you accompany Cancan? What do you always go out to find them? You're not the stuff of officialdom! ”

"No, I think it's pretty good. I have agreed with the wife of Bureau Li, and she will find an opportunity to talk to Bureau Li about your promotion in a few days. How's that, husband, do you think I'm pretty good?! ”

"You're not sick! I have my own affairs, can you not get involved! ”

Cao Qi is actually right, even if Zhang Jing is capable, after all, the workplace is not officialdom. In this world, there are only a few people who can take the career path, and they are not ordinary people. She Zhang Jing was born to mix smoothly in the workplace, but her brain and the city government are in the officialdom, and she is simply a person who is knocked out in minutes.

In addition, Cao Qi basically does not live at home, as for where he went and with whom, I don't know. Zhang Jing was like a demon for a while, always trying to make herself a perfect woman, she would often make a pot of soup for Cao Qi, and if Cao Qi didn't go home, she would pour it out again. Over and over again, never get tired of it.

This "tranquility" was suddenly shattered one day in November of that year.

"Oh, Lao Cao (with the surname of the household), you said that you, there is such a big thing in the family, and you don't notify me, you still don't treat me as a good sister!" It was an old man about the same age as his grandmother, with short curly hair, not short, and wearing a woolen sweater with rhinestones. Don't underestimate what kind of rhinestones, in this era, it is not a matter to have a little diamond on your clothes, and in that era, you can be trendy and a symbol of money.

Grandma came down from upstairs, was stunned for a moment, and then squeezed out a little smile on her face: "Hey, tell me, tell me, didn't you go abroad to play!" ”
