Chapter 285: Fate
"Mom, my uncle will keep you for a few days, and you will stay for a few more days, why are you in such a hurry for me to pick you up?"
The person who spoke was a man in his thirties, with a thin figure and a somewhat thin face.
He drove a Mazda and spoke to his mother in the back seat.
The mother's hair was gray, her horse's face was wrinkled, and she looked particularly old.
"It's not good to keep bothering your uncle, besides, if I don't come back, there will be no one to take care of Yalan." Mother said with a smile.
The Yalan in her mouth is the youngest daughter of her son Duan Xiaohai, who is riding on her lap at this time and is held in her arms.
The little girl is only a week and a half, and she has all the meat, which is very cute.
"Mom, I'll take care of it myself for a few days." The woman in the passenger seat looked back and said.
This is her daughter-in-law, Zhao Lili.
The couple opened a small supermarket and were busy with the business of the store on weekdays, while Wang Hongmei helped them take care of the children.
In addition to Duan Yalan, who is only a week and a half, the couple also has a son, Duan Zihan, but the son is thirteen and is in the first year of junior high school in the town this year.
Two days ago, Duan Xiaohai's uncle's son got married, and after they attended the wedding, the brother-in-law wanted to keep Wang Hongmei for a few more days, and Wang Hongmei herself agreed, but only a day later, she called Duan Xiaohai to drive her home.
In fact, Duan Xiaohai and his wife knew why Wang Hongmei was in such a hurry to go back, saying that it was true that they wanted their granddaughter Duan Yalan, but they wanted to stay in the town and stay in that place, if their daughter came back and couldn't find her, they would be in a hurry.
After hearing this, the couple glanced at each other and didn't say anything more.
They are afraid that talking too much will stimulate Wang Hongmei, because since the incident many years ago, Wang Hongmei's spirit has gradually become abnormal, and it is difficult to say that she has mental illness, but it is not very serious, sometimes good and sometimes bad, and when she is good, she is no different from a normal person, and when she is bad, she runs to the town, standing in the place where her daughter was washed away by the water, and says that she will wait for her daughter to come back.
Many years passed like this, and later Duan Xiaohai bought a storefront house in the town and opened a tobacco and alcohol supermarket, just opposite the day his sister was washed away by the water.
This time, Wang Hongmei sat in the store every day, looking across the road, and sat all day.
When Duan Xiaohai's daughter Duan Yalan was born, the old lady's illness suddenly improved, as if all the love for her daughter was transferred to her granddaughter, so it was really difficult to sleep and eat if she didn't see her for a day.
"Yalan, do you miss grandma?" Wang Hongmei waved Xiao Yalan's arm lightly, her eyes full of kindness.
γa~a~γ
"It's grandma."
γna~na~γ
"Hey, yes, our family Aran is smart."
"Hehe......"
Xiao Yalan suddenly laughed, revealing a few small baby teeth, indescribably cute.
"Our family Yalan is so smart, she must be good at studying in the future, she will be admitted to a good university, and she will be a college student, but don't learn from your father......
"Mom, I didn't go to college because our family was not in good condition at that time."
"Pull it down, you don't remember me, exams often score twenty or thirty points, how many times has your dad been called to school? Don't you have any points in mind? It's no wonder that the conditions are not good, you can't go to college under any conditions."
Zhao Lili, who was sitting in the co-pilot, also laughed when she heard this, the two were junior high school classmates, so how Duan Xiaohai studied, she knew better than anyone else, Wang Hongmei was not wrong at all, Duan Xiaohai would be a scumbag at the bottom when he went to school.
So after graduating from junior high school, Duan Xiaohai went out to work with his father, while Zhao Lili finished high school and was not admitted to college.
Then after being introduced, I met Duan Xiaohai, and after chatting, I realized that the two were still junior high school classmates, so soon the two looked at each other, of course, the most important thing is that the conditions of Duan Xiaohai's family are not too bad.
Mainly because Duan Xiaohai's father Duan Dacheng is a carpenter with very good skills.
And his dad also likes to toss, worked part-time, and opened a furniture factory.
Although he didn't make a lot of money, he was rich, otherwise he wouldn't have the money to buy a storefront house in the town.
If
Without the flood many years ago, this is a very happy home.
The flood, like a thorn, lay in the hearts of the family.
Along the way, he talked about some of the situation at home, and as Xiao Yalan fell asleep, he fell silent.
Wang Hongmei felt a little stuffy in the car, so she lowered the window a little and looked out of the window.
As their eyes fell on a passing car on the opposite side, two little girls were leaning on the window and looking out.
When they saw her, she saw them.
Wang Hongmei smiled slightly, thinking that when Yalan grew up, she must be as cute as them.
But then her face changed greatly, and the memory of her daughter's already molded lake surfaced.
"Xiaolan? Xiaolan ......, child, park, hurry up and park, is Xiaolan...... It's Xiaolan......
"Wow......
Little Yalan was woken up and cried dissatisfiedly.
Duan Xiaohai and his wife were also taken aback, thinking that Wang Hongmei suddenly fell ill.
However, it was driving in the middle of the road at this time, and it was impossible to stop.
And Zhao Lili, who was sitting in the co-pilot, forcibly turned around and "snatched" her daughter from Wang Hongmei's hands.
She was worried that Wang Hongmei would hurt her daughter after she became ill.
But at this time, Wang Hongmei didn't care about these at all, and kept shouting to Duan Xiaohai: "It's Xiaolan, it's Xiaolan...... Hurry up and park your ...... Hurry up and stop......
said that he even wanted to reach out to the car door, which scared Duan Xiaohai into a cold sweat, but fortunately, because he considered that there were children at home, there was a child lock in the back seat, and he couldn't open it for a while.
However, he hurriedly found a roadside and parked the car.
At this time, after Gugu in the opposite car saw his mother, he didn't recognize it at first sight, because Wang Hongmei was too old, and the changes were too great.
It's just that she was very confused, the person on the other side looked familiar, and slowly, she seemed to remember something, but at this time the car had already driven far away.
"Goo-goo...... Goo ......"
So she pointed anxiously out the window and kept cooing.
But when everyone looked out the window, there was nothing but the view of receding and retreating.
"Don't worry, don't worry, let's talk slowly......
Seeing her like this, Su Jinxiu reached out and hugged her on her lap, gently patting her tender back.
"Did you see anything just now?" Yang Ruoyun, who was holding the small brocade painting, asked the little carp with some curiosity.
The little carp glanced at her, not wanting to talk to her, but shook his head and answered her.
"Sure enough, it's a stupid fish, if you don't see anything, how can Goo be in such a hurry?" Yang Ruoyun looked at the little carp with disdain.
The small carp immediately fried its hair.
"I'm smart, I'm smart."
She shouted loudly, trying to show herself a fierce appearance, glaring at Yang Ruoyun tightly, as if to say, I'm not afraid of you, don't mess with me.
At this time, Gu Gu was so anxious that his head was slightly sweaty.
Because every time she wants to speak, she unconsciously makes a cooing sound in her mouth.
Eventually, though, she uttered two words word by word.
"Mom."
