Chapter Seventy-One: Father and Mother

Hao Lili was about to blurt out a cappuccino, but suddenly remembered that her aunt visited today, and her stomach hurt so much that she was alive and dead. So she said to the waiter, "Bring me a cup of original coconut milk tea, it needs to be hot!" ”

"Just bring me a cup of chrysanthemum tea!" Tu Cheng said lightly.

Originally, I thought that the two of them should be the God of Wealth of the store early in the morning, but after hearing their order, I couldn't help but feel a little sense of loss in my heart. Secretly slandering yourself, it's really economical.

"I'm sorry, I should have called you a long time ago, but I was delayed by my busy work recently!" Hao Lili, who has always been sharp in the workplace, suddenly found that she was running out of words as soon as she opened her mouth today.

"You're not just calling me to pay for my clothes, are you?" Tu Cheng answered. He is still wearing a Nike T-shirt on his upper body today, but the color of this one is light gray today! Underneath is a pair of light brown slacks.

It seems that the title "Nike man" is not wrong for him at all, Hao Lili thought to herself. That day, when Hao Lili saved Tu Cheng's mobile phone number into her mobile phone, she remarked a Nike man. The purpose is to remind yourself that you have soiled someone else's clothes and remember to pay for it.

Hearing Tu Cheng say this, Hao Lili smiled, and had to swallow back the dirty clothes and never mention it again.

Tu Cheng kept pointing to the menu on the café table and asking Hao Lili what she wanted to eat. Hao Lili used the excuse that she was losing weight, so she didn't order anything except a cup of original coconut milk tea!

In fact, it is true, in her opinion, everything in cafes and fast food restaurants is junk food. For the sake of your health and figure, it is better to eat less or not at all.

The two chatted in the café all morning, and they chatted all over the world, not involving any work. Hao Lili felt extremely relaxed.

She's glad she's been able to talk to people in her lifetime and only talk about things that aren't related to work.

Through a simple exchange, Hao Lili learned that Tu Cheng was from a county town below Guiyang City, Guizhou.

No wonder I felt a sense of familiarity when I heard the voice for the first time, it turned out that he was from the same province as herself, Hao Lili thought.

Tu Cheng said that after graduation, his parents very much hoped that he would return to his hometown to work.

However, he was helpless because he studied programming and couldn't find a job in his hometown county.

Therefore, after graduating from an undergraduate college in the capital, he finally came to Guancheng to settle down.

Through Tu Cheng's introduction, Hao Lili knew that Tu Cheng had a family that was not wealthy but very happy. Tu Cheng also said that he also has a sister who is three years younger than him, but now he is a mother of two children.

This is not strange to Hao Lili at all. Occasionally, when I go home, I hear the neighbors around me mention that her little hair is basically a mother of two children, and some are even mothers of three or four children.

Hao Lili did not describe her family and parents to Tu Cheng. just said that his academic performance was not satisfactory and he went to a junior college in Guancheng

, don't want to go back. Therefore, he stayed in Guancheng.

In between chatting, Hao Lili continued to inadvertently look at Tu Cheng from time to time, the man who stood up more than one meter eight.

In fact, when she was thinking so, Tu Cheng on the other side was also thinking about the same question in his heart, saying that Guizhou people are short, why is she so tall?

For Tu Cheng's height, it is like a tattoo in his own heart. When many people jokingly asked him why, as a native of Guizhou, how he stole other people's heights. He always joked that he was just lucky and broke through the limitations of genes.

However, everyone in his hometown knows that Tu Cheng's father is actually from the Northeast. It's just that because the grandparents gave birth to their mother and their other four sisters and sisters, a total of 5 girls, they still couldn't give birth to a son. Aichi Literature ...!

So, under the influence of the already deep-rooted ideology of inheritance, Tu Cheng's grandparents tried their best to have a boy. But the family is too poor to regenerate. So, I asked someone to look around.

Therefore, when Tu Cheng's mother was five years old, distant relatives brought good news to Tu Cheng's grandparents. Said that he picked up a little boy on the road.

As for how Tu Cheng was picked up by distant relatives, the Tu family did not know, and the relatives kept silent, just told Tu Cheng's grandparents that the child could be raised with confidence.

In the end, it is said that Tu Cheng's grandfather took a year's rations from the family and distant relatives in exchange for Tu Cheng's father. Because of this, that year, the life of the Tu family was very difficult.

In the same year, due to the lack of food rations. Tu Cheng's fourth and fifth aunts were starved to death one after another.

Someone asked him, is it worth it for you to exchange two for one? Grandpa Tu Cheng just smiled happily, "I have a son, I finally have a son!" It does not answer the questioner's questions directly.

Perhaps, in his opinion, having a son is having everything. Perhaps, he thinks it's worth it! When he grew up, when he heard his neighbors talk about the events of that year, Tu Cheng thought to himself.

Although it was exchanged, Tu Cheng's grandparents can be said to have reached the extreme of doting on Tu Cheng's father, purely holding it in the palm of their hand for fear of falling, and holding it in their mouth for fear of melting.

Among the four children in the family, the other three children will be beaten if they do something wrong, only Tu Cheng's father will never be beaten.

Compared to girls, boys are always naughty. Therefore, it is not uncommon to occasionally steal a neighbor's melon or a peach on the side of the road.

Whenever a neighbor came to the door, Tu Cheng's father would always point to Tu Cheng's mother, who had never liked to talk and argue, and say, "She stole it!" ”

After that, after the grandfather slapped Tu Cheng's mother in front of the neighbor, the neighbor dissipated his anger and left. Even if she was beaten, her mother chose to endure it.

It is impossible for the other two sisters of the mother to defend the mother of Tucheng, who is the third child.

After all, they knew that it was impossible for their father to touch half a single hair of this hard-won son. The rest of the three of them had to have someone to carry the bag. The best candidate for this bag is naturally not talkative and never justifies

It's the third.

Even, Tu Cheng's father stole other people's chickens. Facing the neighbors who came to the door, Tu Cheng's grandfather was more angry than ever, and Tu Cheng's father was still looking for Tu's mother to top the bag.

Grandpa Tu Cheng seemed to be in a position where he would not give up if he didn't kill Tu Cheng's mother. So much so that Tu Cheng's mother's right little finger and the knee of her left leg fell into a lifelong disability.

When the neighbor saw Tu Cheng's mother, who was beaten by Tu Cheng's grandfather and could only lie on the ground and convulse, he was immediately frightened and panicked, so he had to persuade Tu Cheng's grandfather, "Don't fight, if you beat again, you will die." "Holding his own chicken, he reluctantly left.

After the neighbor left, Tu Cheng's grandfather picked up his daughter who was lying on the ground with blood on her mouth and nose and convulsions, and cried: "Dad didn't beat you hard, how could people let you go like this?" As he spoke, he freed his other hand to keep pumping his mouth.

Seeing Tu Cheng's mother, who was still twitching in his father's arms, Tu Cheng's father suddenly knelt down on his knees in front of his father, admitting that he had found Tu Cheng's mother's bag, and confessed that all the things he had done before were all bags that Tu Cheng's mother had carried before.

Hearing this, Grandpa Tu Cheng's anger, which had been suppressed, suddenly rose again. He put his third daughter on the ground and kicked Tu Cheng's father directly in the waist. After kicking, he didn't stop unbuckling his belt. At this time, Grandma Tu Cheng hurriedly ran over and grabbed his hands, "Don't fight, you have already scrapped one, do you want to scrap the second one?" Under the bitter pleading of Grandma Tu Cheng, Grandpa Tu Cheng slowly let go.

This is the only time in Tu Cheng's father that he has been beaten by his father in his life. Although this is only the only time, my father is also disabled. As for him, although he is more than 1.8 meters tall, his waist is always bent. Whenever the weather changed, he always shouted that his back hurt.

Tu Cheng's mother, who had been lying in bed for more than half a month, finally survived, but since then she has been limping when she walks. The little finger of the right hand can no longer be bent. Therefore, when she holds the chopsticks, she always seems to point her fingers at others. In this way, she is not less ridiculed by children of the same age around her.

That year, my father was 7 years old and my mother was 11 years old.

Maybe it's because of guilt. From then on, whenever there was something delicious at home, the grandparents would always let Tu Cheng's father and mother eat it first. Tu Cheng's father is also more pampered than ever.

A few years later, the eldest aunt and the second aunt both got married one after another. My mother is also 16 years old. Someone started to talk to my mother. Either the mother looks down on others, or people dislike the mother as a disabled person. In the end, it was all gone.

In private, Tu Cheng's father always said to Tu Cheng's mother, "None of them are worthy of you." ”

When Tu Cheng's mother was 21 years old, her grandparents began to panic, so they told her mother not to pick anymore, thinking that as long as someone liked her, she would marry directly.

Unexpectedly, before Tu Cheng's mother could speak against it, Tu Cheng's father was the first to jump out and object. He said, "My sister has the right to marry or not!" ”

This time, Tu Cheng's mother was able to because Tu Cheng's father

It's gratifying to be on your side. Tu Cheng's grandparents have never shied away from the fact that Tu Cheng's father was exchanged for distant relatives and has no blood relationship with them.

Gradually, Tu Cheng's grandparents also discovered that the relationship between the two children, the older and the younger, was getting closer and closer. In the end, he acquiesced to their relationship. When Tu Cheng's father was 19 years old, the family held a simple wedding for the two. After that, the two became a legitimate husband and wife.

When Tu Cheng's father was 22 years old, he had Tu Cheng, and after another three years, he had Tu Cheng's sister. And the grandparents passed away one after another two years after the birth of the younger sister.

For a period of time when Tu Cheng was very young, he never figured out why his father and mother were not with the same surname, while his mother had the same surname Tu, didn't he say that they couldn't get married with the same surname?

These were all things that Tu Cheng heard from his neighbors after remembering. He asked his parents for confirmation one by one, and they all gave positive answers.
