The Spring Festival holiday is only ten days, Li Qing and Mengmeng have just eliminated their strangeness, and they are about to separate.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Li Qing and Ouyang packed their luggage, finished eating at Aunt Mengmeng's house, and prepared to go to work in H City.

Ouyang was at the county long-distance bus station, bought a ticket to H City, Mengmeng and the second aunt came out of the aunt's house, and had to go to the station to send their parents.

Meng Meng held her mother with one hand and her father with the other, and didn't let go.

Li Qing said

"Mengmeng, let's go back with my second aunt,"

"Mom and Dad, I watched you get in the car"

Ouyang put a large bag, filled with salted duck and salted fish sent by relatives, put it in the luggage compartment under the car, and then carried the small luggage bag into the car.

Meng Meng took Li Qing's hand, snuggled up to Li Qing's side, the bus started slowly, Li Qing easily opened Meng Meng's hand, and said

"Mengmeng, the bus is going to leave, Mom and Dad are going to get on the bus, and if you don't go to work, you'll be late"

Meng Meng lowered her head and didn't speak, standing in place. Li Qing looked at Mengmeng's second aunt and said

"Second aunt, take Mengmeng home"

Li Qing turned around and got into the bus, and slowly sat down on the seat near the window.

The driver of the bus shouted from the door

"Anything else that didn't get on the bus, hurry up and get in the car, we'll leave right away"

The driver of the bus took a closer look inside the car and counted the people in the seats with his hands.

Li Qing looked through the car window and saw the cute petite and lonely figure, with eager anticipatory eyes.

Li Qing couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, his eyes were moist, and he sobbed, and his tears fell down like pearls with broken threads!

Ouyang stretched out his arm and hugged Li Qing's trembling shoulders tightly.

But he didn't know what to say to persuade Li Qing.

After Li Qing arrived in H City, he couldn't help but miss his daughter, and every time he saw a child who was about the same age as Mengmeng, he had to take a few more looks.

Li Qing couldn't help it in the end, and wrote a letter to Mengmeng, asking Mengmeng to study hard, and she would definitely be picked up when she went to junior high school.

Mengmeng was very excited when she received the letter, holding Li Qing's letter, and crying in the bed for a long, long time.

When I usually miss my parents, I take out the photo album and keep looking at it.

The heart silently called

"Mom, when are you going to pick me up?"

"The house leak happened to rain overnight"

Early one morning in early winter, Ouyang Lei suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was paralyzed.

This is no less than a thunderbolt on a sunny day for Jiang Cui and this family, Jiang Cui, who has always been strong, is almost crazy.

poured all the resentment on Ouyang Lei, and when he returned home after being treated in the hospital, the children were busy with their own families.

Jiang Cui threw Ouyang Lei, who had lost his ability to work, into the backyard, a small room without sun all year round.

Ouyang Lei dragged half of his body with him, and he had to cook every day, do housework, and serve himself.

As soon as Jiang Cui saw Ouyang Lei, she scolded, regardless of whether there were outsiders at home.

In the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chengjin's family of four and Ouyang's family of three all went home to have a New Year's dinner together.

After the dishes were served on the table, the Ouyang brothers said to help Ouyang Lei to the table and eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

Jiang Cui's eyes glared and said, don't bring him to the table to eat, the Ouyang brothers still insisted on helping Ouyang Lei to the hall to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

Jiang Cui squinted at Ouyang Lei and scolded

"Don't let him sit at the table and eat, eat in the hut!"

When Ouyang Lei chewed, the vegetable rice would unconsciously fall to the corner of his right mouth, and he couldn't feel it at all.

Ouyang wiped it with a tissue, and Jiang Cui said disgustedly

"Look at it, oops! It's disgusting, look at your gluttonous appearance, you eat very well, you can't eat less!

If you don't let him help him to the table, you won't listen, I'll serve you all day long, and I'll be annoyed to death. ”

The three children gently held the dishes with chopsticks and chewed them with their heads down.

Li Qing said to Ouyang

"The backyard hut doesn't see the sun all year round, isn't the small room next to the hall empty?

Move Grandpa Meng Meng to live in a small house, facing south, you can usually go to the gate and bask in the sun.

Speak to other people in the Zhuangzi. ”

Ouyang was timid, and told Jiang Cui about this idea, Jiang Cui didn't agree a hundred times, and his eyes were pricked up

"The smell on his body is so bad that he died, and when he moved to the front cabin, the outsiders didn't dare to enter the house!"

Jiang Cui never bathed Ouyang Lei.

Sometimes for several months, the eldest daughter and son-in-law took Ouyang Lei a bath when they came home.

When the Ouyang brothers went home, they took Ouyang Lei in a bath.

Usually, Ouyang Lei uses a healthy hand to dip a towel in water and casually scratches it twice on his face.

Ouyang and Li Qing discussed their thoughts with their brothers and sisters, and the eldest daughter carefully discussed with Jiang Cui.

Jiang Cui was furious, and shouted angrily with a crooked face and slanted eyes

"If any of you think I don't serve well, you will move the old man to your house!"

None of the sons and daughters dared to mention it again.

Li Qing shook his head helplessly and was silent.

Cheng Jin took his daughter to other places for the summer vacation, and when Meng Meng was in the fourth grade for the summer vacation, she was taken by Li Qing to H City for the summer vacation, and Meng Meng was laughing and jumping in the children's amusement park~

After the summer vacation, Li Qing sent Mengmeng home, and the two walked to the canal bridge.

Li Qing upstairs Meng Meng with one hand, and waved the other hand to take a taxi.

A black off-road vehicle slowly drove by, Li Qing looked up and saw two people sitting in the car, the man driving looked at Li Qing in surprise, and the co-pilot sat a smiling woman.

Meng Meng said in surprise

"Mom, that person looks like you."

"Who is like me, I also have a twin sister? I'll ask your grandmother when I go back, hehehe, Mengmeng, your eyes are flowering, the car is coming, get in the car"

Li Qing pulled Mengmeng and quickly got into the taxi.

After Mengmeng's primary school to junior high school exam, Ouyang and Li Qing resigned from H City, returned to the vicinity of a middle school in the provincial capital, and rented a small suite.

Meng Meng was borrowed from this middle school, and a relative was teaching at this school at that time.

Li Qing works at the supermarket at the entrance of the community downstairs.

In mid-August, Ouyang returned to his hometown from the provincial capital in the morning and picked up Meng Meng to the provincial capital.

In the afternoon, Li Qing came to the wide station square early in the morning, calculated the time, and the car arrived at the station immediately.

Li Qing was at the exit of the station, looking at the people leaving the station one by one, and two people appeared from the other side of the square, Ouyang and Mengmeng,

From a distance, I saw a black and thin Meng Meng, combed two pigtails, and wore Jiang Cui herself

The clothes sewn with floral cloth and a pair of plastic sandals on the feet are in stark contrast to the modern high-rise buildings next to them.

A gust of wind blew, and the wide floral cloth clothes fluttered and swayed.

Ouyang smiled and held Mengmeng with one hand, and pointed to the direction where Li Qing was standing,

"Mengmeng, Mom, I'm waiting for you."

Meng Meng spread her two thin arms and shook the two pigtails at the back of her head,

"Bang Bang"

trotted over, spreading its wings like a bird trapped in a cage for a long time.

"Mom~Mom~"

Li Qing greeted him with a smile, stretched out his arms and hugged the black and thin Meng Meng in his arms and picked him up.

The sun passed through the tall buildings next to it and shone obliquely on the square, and Meng Meng pulled Ouyang with one hand and Li Qing with the other.

Meng Meng jumped up, blinking curiously, this strange city, strange everything.

The little mouth kept honking and asking this and that.

Five months later, Ouyang felt that the salary in the provincial capital was too low, just enough to maintain the daily life of a family of three, so he had to return to H City.

At this point, Ouyang and Li Qing began to live separately.
