After only three days of leaving, Lu Zhoucheng couldn't hold his breath anymore and called to ask me when I would go back.

I haven't been to the company for a long time, and I want to wait until the seventh day of junior high school to go to work, so I will have to stay a few more days.

Listening to me say that I didn't go back until the eighth day of the first month, Lu Zhou hung up the phone angrily.

I sighed and went back to the living room with my phone.

The two children were tired of playing, and climbed up along my legs, and the little girl was fast, hugging my neck and coquettishly, "Mom, I want to eat strawberries." ”

"Okay, Mom will wash it for you."

I took the strawberries from the refrigerator and went to the kitchen, and the two children followed me, and after sending Cheng Siyuan away yesterday afternoon, they were very sticky to me.

The children were spoiled by Cheng Siyuan, they couldn't stay at home, they slept after eating at noon, and after they got up, they pestered me out, so I had to take them downstairs to play.

It's a bit cold outside, and the sky is gray.

The weather forecast said that there was snow today, and when the sun came out in the morning, I still felt that the weather forecast was unreliable, but I didn't expect to change the sky when I got up after sleeping.

The two children were playing football downstairs, they were all wearing down jackets, and after a while, they were sweating, and they ran over with the ball and shouted hot.

I didn't dare to undress them, I just unzipped them.

They were very good at playing, and they could play with a ball all afternoon, but they were pitiful for standing next to me, and both legs were sore.

"Whose kid is this, I don't think I've seen it."

"I haven't seen it either, maybe it's a relative!"

The two of them came out of the cave and saw the children in the yard whispering, "Let the children play outside on such a cold day, and they are not afraid of catching a cold!" ”

Seeing me standing there, he guessed that I was the mother of the child, so he came to greet me, "This is your child!" Twins, they're so cute. ”

I smiled and nodded, and by the way, I searched my memories and found that I didn't know these two people, and they might be new residents.

In the earliest days, it was just a teacher's apartment in the school, and only teachers and their families lived there.

A few years ago, the community was expanded, a few buildings were added, and they began to be sold to the outside world, and these two people should have moved here after I left.

"You look very young, you actually have two children of this age, are you here to visit relatives?"

"No, I live here."

Listening to my answer, the man was slightly surprised, "You also live here?" Then why haven't I seen you before? ”

"I used to live here and haven't been back for a long time."

"Oh, that's it!"

The two of them looked at each other, probably seeing that I had no desire to chat, and walked away.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly missed Lu Zhoucheng at this moment, so I took out my mobile phone and sent him a message.

Are you at home? Have you ever gone out to hang out with friends? Wangcai January big gray are they okay? 】

[What's the weather like over there?] It's cooling down here, it's cold, it's going to snow. 】

[Don't be angry, I'll be back in a few days.] 】

I sent a few messages in a row, but Lu Zhoucheng didn't reply to any of them, I was a little discouraged, and bowed my head sullenly and poked my phone, [Why don't you ignore people, I miss you very much. 】

"Xiaoqing? Are you Xiaoqing? ”

The abrupt voice made me temporarily retract my mind, and I looked up at the source of the sound, and it was a woman in her fifties.

I recognized it, this is Teacher Zhang, who lives upstairs, is usually a little stingy and likes to gossip, and Teacher Shen had a conflict with her in the early years.

It is said that he said bad things about Teacher Chen, so that Comrade Shen knew about it, and went directly to her house to quarrel, so angry that he said that Teacher Shen had no grace when he met people.

"Teacher Zhang."

"It's really you!" Teacher Zhang threw away the garbage and walked over, smiling with wrinkles on his face, "I haven't seen you for several years, why did you come back suddenly?" ”

After speaking, he had a suddenly realized expression, "I'm here to see your parents!" O iniquity, you say that the good people will go whatever they say, leaving you alone. ”

I looked at her with a faint smile.

Teacher Zhang was still expressing his feelings, and suddenly saw a child running next to him, holding my hand and shaking it a few times, "Mom, the baby is thirsty." ”

Teacher Zhang's mouth suddenly opened to the maximum, and his flabby triangular eyes were full of horror, "This, this is your child?" ”

I didn't have time to pay attention to her, so I unscrewed the water cup and gave my daughter water.

The little girl was thirsty, drank half a glass of water like a cow, and then looked up at the dumbfounded Teacher Zhang.

Teacher Zhang was also looking at her, and she didn't seem to have eased up, "Xiaoqing, is this really your daughter?" ”

I nodded, touched Fei Baobao's long hair and said, "Fei Fei, it's called Grandma Zhang." ”

Fei Baobao sensibly called 'Grandma Zhang', but Grandma Zhang acted as if she hadn't heard, "Aren't you divorced?" How can there be a child of this age? ”

After finishing speaking, he was hit by a ball at his feet, and when he looked down, he saw that it was a young master carved in pink.

Seeing two very similar faces, Teacher Zhang was dumbfounded again, "Two? ”

Fan Baobao didn't know what was going on, and pulled his sister to kick the ball, so I answered Mr. Zhang's question, "Yes, both of them are mine." ”

"You're getting married again? Your mother would be happy to know that you gave birth to such beautiful grandchildren, by the way, what does the child's father do? Where do you live now? ”

Teacher Zhang's curiosity is not ordinarily strong, and I didn't want to satisfy her, and my eyes kept following the two children.

Seeing my attitude, Teacher Zhang said embarrassedly: "I still have soup at home, so I'll go back first." ”

After walking a few steps, he said, "You and the child have just come back, there must be nothing at home, come to my house to eat at night!" ”

I declined her kindness, and Teacher Zhang seemed a little unhappy and muttered away.

Less than five minutes after Mr. Zhang left, several heads stretched out from upstairs, and after a while, a few people came down, with a clear goal, that is, coming for me.

In fact, I wanted to go home as soon as she left just now, but the child was bored at home for a day, and finally came out to let off steam, and I was reluctant to go back so soon.

After such a soft heart, they were treated as orangutans in the zoo and watched, and they didn't know what Teacher Zhang told them.

"It's really Mr. Chen's Xiaoqing, I haven't seen the children so old for a few years, and Mr. Chen should be blind if he knows underground."

"What a look! Isn't it obvious that I haven't come back for a few years, and now I'm suddenly back, or I'm still coming back alone with my children? ”

"You mean you're leaving?"

"Otherwise, who is running here in the New Year's month! Mom and Dad are gone again, so it's hard to come back for a vacation! ”

"I remember that this girl was very sensible when she was young, and she often went to the river with her father for a walk, and now her parents are gone, it's so pitiful!"

"What a wreck! What a good boy. ”

Listening to these people's self-righteous discussions, my heart hurts as if I have been pricked by a needle.

My eyes swept over Mr. Zhang, who was hiding in the crowd, and my face was slightly gloomy, but I was still trying to maintain my dignity and pretending not to be affected.

"Who do you think this kid belongs to? Could it be Mr. Cheng? ”

"You mean Siyuan, that kid! Don't let Teacher Cheng hear this, she will be unhappy, she finally picked up a life when she was in a car accident. ”

"This is the Lone Star! I can't keep any of them. ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"Don't believe it, Teacher Shen and Teacher Chen left so young, and her home was scattered."

"I heard that I married a young master from a rich family in the city, and I didn't leave in the end? When her mother died, the man didn't even show his face. ”

With my nails embedded in my palms, I gritted my teeth and tried to push the heat back into my eyes, and it was at this time that the child kicked the ball at the group of melon-eating spectators.

I was slightly stunned, raised my leg and walked over to that side, and at that moment, a hand appeared in my downward line of sight and pressed it on the football.

I saw that hand pick up the soccer ball and slowly straighten up to meet my eyes.

"Daddy!"

The two children pounced and hugged the man who suddenly appeared, and he rubbed the child's head with one free hand, then looked up at me.

I hesitated and walked over, "Why are you here?" ”

"Of course, I'm here to pick up my wife and children home."

Lu Zhoucheng returned the ball to the child, and reached over to touch my face, "Why is your face so ugly, isn't it uncomfortable?" Yesterday I heard your voice a little hoarse. ”

"I probably haven't been back for a long time, and I don't feel very comfortable."

The voice was really a little hoarse, not only because of physical discomfort, but also because of the helplessness at this moment, and the grievance that I wanted to cry inexplicably after seeing him.

Looking at my red eyes, Lu Zhoucheng sighed, "Help me get the car in first." ”

With the improvement of living standards, cars have become a must-have for home, but this is an old community, there is no underground garage, and there are only a few parking spaces on the road, which can be imagined.

As soon as there are more cars, it is difficult to manage, and there are often complaints about who parks indiscriminately, and there are big-character posters.

The property and security guards had a headache, and then it was simply stipulated that residents who were not here were not allowed to drive their cars in, and Uncle Lu's car was stopped outside.

I said hello to the security guard, and the car drove in and parked under the unit.

Lu Zhoucheng was surrounded as soon as he got out of the car, and a group of retired aunts were gossiping, asking him why he only came today?

Some people also said that I was pitiful that I didn't have a father or mother, so let him treat me well.

I wondered, which eye did they see that I was pitiful?

I was ashamed and angry, shook my hand and left, and Lu Zhoucheng led the child to follow behind.

When I entered the building, I heard someone say: "It seems that that incident hit her really hard, how polite the child used to be, don't you think that man is a little familiar?" Have you been here before? ”

Back at home, I went straight into my room, locked the door and sat on the bed sulking.

It didn't take long for Lu Zhoucheng to knock on the door, "Xiaoqing, open the door." ”

When I looked up, the tears fell uncontrollably, and I didn't bother to move, so I wiped them with my sleeve.

Lu Zhoucheng knocked on the door for a while, and when he saw that I ignored him, he called.

After the phone was connected, his voice came from his ears and outside the door, "Didn't you say you missed me?" Think I won't open the door yet? ”
