Concubine Tao thought on the way home, if Zhou Cangnan came back, what kind of expression should she use to show him the photo? Wrath? Ridicule? Or don't care?

She felt that she should be like a jealous woman, pretending to care very much and being jealous, and then scare Zhou Cangnan.

I feel in a good mood when I think about it, but the guy who said he would be back on the weekend didn't come back on Saturday.

Concubine Tao slept very unsteadily all night, and was annoyed that there was no phone at this time? A phone call will tell you what he's doing, and when will he come back?

On Saturday morning, the weather was fine, and Concubine Tao stood in front of the balcony with low interest to see the sunflowers she planted, which had already sprouted delicate and tender buds, and suddenly her mood improved.

Use a small stick to gently pull the soil in the middle of the young seedlings to loosen the soil for the flowers.

Talking downstairs playing with a group of boys, she looked up and saw Concubine Tao fiddling with flower pots in front of the balcony, and thought about it and ran upstairs.

"Little aunt, little aunt." Tao knocked softly on the door and shouted quietly.

"What's the matter?" Concubine Tao opened the door and looked at the surging mysterious appearance, and asked with a smile.

"Little aunt, I want to go to Liu Qiang's house to have a look, can you accompany me?" With a surging expectation in her eyes, she looked at Concubine Tao with a blank look.

Concubine Tao thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, do you know where his home is?" ”

"I know, it takes more than half an hour to walk, we can take a carriage to go, I'll treat you." Pounding his small chest and reassuring.

Concubine Tao smiled and rubbed her gushing head: "Okay, you go downstairs and wait, I'll clean up and go together." ”

Liu Qiang's house was in the east of the town, and Concubine Tao and Tao Tao did not take the carriage, but walked slowly.

On the road, Tao Tao chatted with Concubine Tao like a little adult: "Little aunt, when I grow up, I will become a policeman, specializing in catching bad people who bully children." ”

Concubine Tao smiled and said, "Okay, then you can study hard." ”

When the two arrived at Liu Qiang Village, they took Concubine Tao to the last house in the westernmost part of the village, and it was also the most dilapidated house in the village.

Although other people's houses are not blue brick and tile houses, they are also neat and tidy, and the walls are painted white, clean and neat.

Compared with Liu Qiang's house, Liu Qiang's house is like a slum, with a dilapidated gate that collapses when pushed, the three houses are still mud and walled, and there is no painting outside, there are many nails nailed on the wall, and various bags of dried vegetables are hung.

The yard was small, a few ducks were running around the yard, and the ground was covered with green and white poop.

Concubine Tao looked at such a house with some sadness, no matter when, the difference between the rich and the poor is so obvious, some people have big fish and meat, and some people are struggling on the food and clothing line.

Standing in front of the door with an excited face, he shouted: "Liu Qiang, Liu Qiang ......"

It took a long time for someone to answer in the room, and then a thin woman came out of the room, her black and yellow skin was not shiny at all, and her hair was tied into two braids on her chest, and she was wrapped with colored wool. There was no brilliance in his eyes, and when he looked at Concubine Tao and Taotao, he was a little wooden.

Concubine Tao thought that this was Liu Qiang's mother, and asked gently: "Liu Qiang's mother, is Liu Qiang at home?" ”

Liu Qiang's mother was stunned for a while before nodding in a panic: "At home, not at home." ”

Concubine Tao thought that she was probably not at home, or Liu Qiang would have come out when she heard the movement.

I was about to open my mouth to ask, but there was a whoosh cry from the room.

Liu Qiang's mother hurriedly entered the house, and soon came out with a child in her arms, a child about one year old wrapped in a dirty little quilt, and she couldn't tell that it was a boy or a girl.

"Don't cry, don't cry." Liu Qiang's mother patted the child gently, and her face instantly exuded the brilliance of maternal love, making the whole person appear gentle.

Concubine Tao looked at the woman in the courtyard who was coaxing her children in a daze, she was completely immersed in her own world and loved the child in her arms with all her heart.

For a long time, Liu Qiang's mother seemed to remember Concubine Tao and Tao standing at the gate, raised her head and grinned, and her smile was a little sluggish: "Do you look at the baby?" ”

Tao gently pulled the corner of Concubine Tao's clothes and whispered: "Liu Qiang said that his mother will not communicate with people, but only with their families. ”

When Concubine Tao and Tao were very embarrassed, Liu Qiang came back from the field with a cow, and when he saw Concubine Tao and Taotao, he was a little happy: "Teacher Tao, Xiao Haitao ......"

Tao Tao turned around and happily ran to greet Liu Qiang, and touched the cow's ears with a smile.

Liu Qiang's mother held the child and watched Liu Qiang lead the cow into the hospital, her eyes kept staring at Liu Qiang, and the corners of her mouth split a big arc.

Liu Qiang took the cow to tie it up, and stood a little restrained in front of Concubine Tao: "Teacher Tao......"

Since the incident of stabbing Meng Chunxiao, he has been afraid, afraid that everyone will think he is a murderer, although when he was most afraid, Mr. Tao hugged him, but he still couldn't erase those fears.

After returning home, his father beat him up again, and the injury on his back was still painful, but when he saw Concubine Tao and Taotao, he was really happy, and they didn't dislike him.

Concubine Tao smiled and reached out and touched Liu Qiang's head: "It's okay, today Saturday, we just came to see you." ”

Liu Qiang's eyes turned red, and I am afraid that he will never be able to go back to school.

Liu Qiang's mother stood beside Liu Qiang with the child in her arms, and now she saw that Liu Qiang's eyes suddenly turned red, and she suddenly nervously held the child with one hand and touched Liu Qiang's face with the other: "What's wrong?" Why are you crying? ”

Liu Qiang blinked and shook his head with a smile: "Mom, I didn't cry, you can take your sister and sit over there." ”

Liu Qiang's mother sighed, obediently holding the child and sitting under the wall, but her eyes kept looking at Liu Qiang, warm and soft.

Liu Qiang went to move two stools and let Concubine Tao and Tao sit.

"My mom loves me and my sister very much." Liu Qiang looked back at his mother's appearance and explained to Concubine Tao and Taotao.

He was afraid that Concubine Tao would look down on his mother.

Concubine Tao said softly: "Well, I can see that your mother feels very sorry for you and your sister." ”

Liu Qiang was silent for a while and said: "When I was young, the children in our village always scolded me for being a stupid child, and they also hit me with bricks. ”

Liu Qiang's tone was very flat, as if he was talking about a very small thing, but it made Concubine Tao very sad to listen to, and couldn't help but look up at Liu Qiang's mother, looking stupid and stupid, looking at Liu Qiang's eyes with infinite warmth.

Liu Qiang continued: "At that time, I thought, I want to protect my mother when I grow up, she is not stupid, but she reacts a little slower than others." ”

Concubine Tao didn't know how to comfort her, and when she left, she took out all the money on her body and stuffed it to Liu Qiang.

Liu Qiang refused to ask for it: "Teacher, our family is not short of money." ”

Concubine Tao looked at the home with four walls and pressed Liu Qiang's hand: "This money will be used to buy new clothes for your mother, and the teacher will be waiting for you at school!" ”
