Chapter 4 Call the police
"Got it!" Xue Qing'er's thoughts drifted to the past, don't say it, her mother is really right, since she dropped out of school, she has done either dirty work or tiring work, she is looked down upon everywhere, and the money she earns is not enough for Wu Hao to spend alone. Blind to her parents for so many years.
Qiao Shuzhen took out a cotton swab and applied the ointment to the wound while gently blowing on it.
Every time he applied a little bit, the muscle on Xue Qing'er's back would tremble.
"Tuk-tuk-"
After a few rhythmic knocks on the door, Qiao Shuzhen turned her head and looked at the door.
The door was not pushed open, but Xue Qing'er's father's voice came: "Qing'er, how are you, last night, it was Dad who was wrong, Dad shouldn't have beaten you." People say that women don't stay. Dad is afraid that if you step on the wrong foot, you will fall into the abyss from which you will never recover! ”
Xue Zhen, who has always spoken little, was very honest at this time. He had been lingering outside the door, and it was clear from his voice that he had drunk, and he had drunk a lot.
Tears overflowed Xue Qing'er's eyes.
This is her iron-clad father. On weekdays, he works on the construction site, and can make several steamed buns or rice a day, but his daughter, he always tries his best to provide her with the best things.
Talking less is his daily routine, but there are also times when he digs out his heart, that is, after getting drunk.
He is often vain, and will talk a lot to the two of them, every sentence is not heard on weekdays, but it is his true words.
It's good to have such a dad.
If it weren't for the injuries on his body, Xue Qing'er would have wanted to open the door now and hug his father.
She tried her best to suppress her tears, and calmly said to her father outside the door: "Dad, I have made it clear to Wu Hao, he should not come to pester me again, you can rest assured!" In the future, drinking less alcohol is not good for your health. ”
Xue Zhen outside the door was originally depressed to the extreme, he poured himself glass after glass on the wine table, and kept recalling what his daughter had said to him last night in his mind.
She said that if he objected, she would disown him from father and son.
He thought that everything was really irreparable.
At this time, although he was already drunk, his head was still a little clear, and he wondered if he was hallucinating, and his daughter suddenly changed her mind.
——————————
After resting for a whole day, Xue Qing'er was awakened by the sound of stir-frying downstairs.
She moved her arms, feeling as if her back was better than it had been in the morning.
Glancing at the door, there was a group of people faintly shaking on the glass of the door.
From time to time, the sound of laughter came through the door.
She remembered that tonight was supposed to be a dinner party to celebrate New Year's Day.
At noon, I usually go to my father's relatives to eat, and at night, my mother's relatives eat together.
It was lively outside, and you could hear the rhythmic sound of chopping minced meat.
"Qing'er, get up quickly, this egg is for you!"
The familiar voice made Xue Qing'er's body tremble.
She opened her eyes and looked at Hu Cancan, who was standing there in front of her.
Her hair was curly and yellow-brown. His face was greased and powdered, and he wore a bright red lace puff skirt on his body, and his thin calves were wrapped in black leggings and winter boots.
The whole person looks refreshing.
Her makeup and dress deeply stung Xue Qing'er on the bed.
When she divorced in her previous life, Wu Hao said that she was old and ugly, where could she compare to Hu Cancan. In this way, my cousin does know how to dress up better than her.
She held an egg in the palm of her hand, put it in Xue Qing'er's palm, and then helped her close her fingers and hold the egg.
The warm eggs made Xue Qing'er unhappy.
How could it be so coincidental that on the first day of rebirth, two people she hated were bumped into by her.
"Thank you, sister!" Xue Qing'er clenched the egg and said to Hu Cancan, but there was no smile on the corner of her mouth.
Looking at Xue Qing'er like this, Hu Cancan's expression froze slightly, and then shouted again: "There is a lot of food outside, get up quickly!" Why, you forgot about me as a good sister when you talked about your boyfriend? ”
Hu Cancan, Xue Qing'er and Wu Hao were all in the same class when they were in their first year of high school. After graduating from high school in arts and sciences, Wu Hao chose to study science, while she and Hu Cancan chose liberal arts, so they were placed in two classes.
But Wu Hao often came to Xue Qing'er, and once Hu Cancan asked, seeing that it was his cousin, she explained honestly.
Xue Qing'er didn't answer Hu Cancan at this time, but said coldly: "I'm going to get up!" ”
Hu Cancan felt slighted, she glanced at Xue Qing'er hatefully, and then threw the door and went out.
Outside, Xue Qing'er's mother's voice came from the kitchen: "It's New Year's Day, don't close the door so loudly." ”
As soon as she walked out of the door, Xue Qing'er saw her mother and aunt Hu Qiongjiao cooking in the kitchen, one washing, the other stir-frying, and the pressure cooker was boiling some broth, and the aroma filled the whole house.
Aunt Gui Lihua made dumplings around the brown round table with her cousin Hu Cancan and cousin Qiao Jingtong. Grandfather Qiao Tianqi wore an army-green ** hat on his head, and was sitting on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed and his eyes closed.
"Qing'er got up? Come and make dumplings with us! The little aunt greeted warmly, holding an open dumpling skin in the palm of her hand, she picked up the chopsticks, put the meat filling in the center of the dumpling skin, and very skillfully pinched it layer by layer and wrapped it.
Xue Qing'er agreed and walked over, Hu Cancan also got up at this time, and she came towards her.
"Smack, a vase fell to the ground and shattered!" Xue Qing'er stood there and didn't squat down to check.
Hu Cancan looked panicked, looked at the debris on the ground and shouted: "Mom, come quickly!" ”
Hu Qiongjiao, the aunt who was about to put the vegetables in the oil pot in the kitchen, heard the shout, hurriedly turned off the fire, wiped her hand on the apron, and rushed over.
"What is my sister-in-law looking for?" Gui Lihua stopped making dumplings and looked at her sister-in-law curiously.
"Ring, my wedding ring, I just washed the vegetables, I put it in this vase, why is it gone!" Hu Qiongjiao's face was anxious, and when she searched for it a few times and found that she still didn't see it, she looked up at Xue Qing'er: "Did you break it?" ”
Xue Qing'er nodded.
"Do you see where the ring is?" The eldest aunt's expression was very serious at this time.
Xue Qing'er shook her head again.
"You girl, are you dumb now?" The eldest aunt crossed her waist and stood up, her loud voice made her grandfather Qiao Tianqi, who was napping, tremble, and Erlang's legs were lowered.
"Sister-in-law, be quiet, don't scare the child!" Gui Lihua put down the dumpling skin in her hand and walked over to persuade her.
"Child, if she were a child, she wouldn't have quarreled with her parents about eloping with a man. was in love at such a young age, and it was really a wild child without a tutor! The eldest aunt glanced at Qiao Shuzhen on the side, her face full of disdain.
