Chapter 15: The Poor Girl
When I climbed up to the fifth floor and knocked on the door of my house on a cold night, it was almost ten o'clock.
Keep your ears on the door and listen to the sound of a TV in the living room. Liu Mei took a few deep breaths and knocked on the door.
"Who?" Dad's voice came out, and then the footsteps in slippers came closer, and as soon as the door opened, Dad's mouth grew, "Girl? “
"Dad", Liu Mei tried to grin, but in the eyes of others, it was extremely strange. Dad Liu saw that something was wrong, he immediately shouted to the room: "The little girl is back" and then pulled her arm, "Come in, come in, it's cold outside, right?" “
Mother Liu also walked out quickly, "Huh? Girl, why are you back now? I don't say a word to my parents in advance."
"Hehe", Liu Mei still squeezed out an ugly smile, "I came back by bus, the train can't buy a ticket, and it makes you worry about telling you, just go home." Seeing her mother, Liu Mei's eyes immediately turned red, "Mom, Dad, I've been in the car for a day today, I'm so tired, I'll go wash and sleep first, and then talk on a cloudy day!" ”
Mother Liu looked at her and hesitated a little, but she hurriedly said: "Okay, you go to wash, there are new toothbrushes in the bathroom, I'll go and lay out the quilt and mattress in your room", she said as she walked: "Fortunately, I've been thinking about you coming back for the past few days, and I've already sunned the bedding to be warm, and I can sleep after laying it."
Liu Mei threw her backpack on the sofa and went to the bathroom, Liu Dad frowned slightly, looked at the back of his little daughter, and did not speak.
Liu Mei entered the bathroom, the heating in the north made every room warm like spring, and finally not like Jiangnan indoors and outdoors wrapped in a down jacket or coat, she took off her coat and looked at herself haggard in the mirror, her long hair was messy and a little knotted, her face was pale, her eyes were red, she didn't feel hungry after a day, she only felt a faint pain in her stomach, and her tears couldn't stop falling.
She took a few deep breaths, grabbed a new toothbrush from the drawer under the basin, brushed her teeth and washed her face, and walked out of the bathroom.
Liu's mother called: "Girl, after drinking a bowl of hot porridge and then going to sleep, it just happens that the porridge at night is too much."
Liu Mei smiled, walked over, a bowl of hot white porridge, a plate of small pickles quietly placed on the table, her eyes were hot, and tears almost fell again.
Burying her face in the bowl, she quickly finished eating the porridge, her whole body warmed up, her stomach was much more comfortable, she put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Mom, I'm sleeping, don't call me on a cloudy morning, I have to sleep well."
"Okay, you sleep well", Liu's mother watched thoughtfully as her sensitive and strong daughter approached the room, she looked at Liu's father, "Do you also think there is something wrong with the girl?" ”
Dad Liu frowned, "Of course, seeing her face is so bad", he sat on the sofa, supported the back of his head with both hands, and looked at the ceiling, "Alas, didn't you say that the girl said that she was going to come back with that kid to discuss the engagement in the New Year, and now that she came back alone, it was like this again, something must have happened to the two of them", suddenly he became excited again, "Did that kid do something sorry for the girl?" Daddy Liu slapped his thigh, "Alas, it must be so!" That kid didn't look like a fuel-efficient lamp to me, and I guessed it! See how I clean him up! He stood up and went to find his phone, "Hey, where's my phone?" I'll have to call him and ask him what the hell is going on! “。
"Okay, what time do you think it's now?" Mother Liu came over and pressed his shoulder, "What's the matter, I asked the girl on a cloudy day, otherwise you hit him recklessly, if it wasn't Xu Mo's problem?" Don't mess things up! “
"Isn't that kid's problem a girl's problem? You still don't know about our daughter? You ······" Before Dad Liu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mother Liu.
"Okay, if you don't investigate, you won't have the right to speak, what's the matter, wait until you ask your daughter on a cloudy day!" Mother Liu got up and went to the bedroom, leaving Father Liu, who looked angry, sitting on the sofa angrily.
Liu's mother went to the door of Liu Mei's bedroom, put her ear on the door and listened, there was no movement, she sighed in her heart, and went back to the bedroom.
Liu Mei returned to the bedroom, closed the door, took off her clothes and got into the bed.
She was so tired, her body was tired, she was tired, she didn't want to think about anything at this time, she just wanted to sleep well, no matter what happened, no matter what happened in the future, turn off the phone, turn off the light, and close her eyes.
Soon fell asleep.
Returning to her long-lost home, she was surrounded by familiar breaths and feelings, and it was rare that she fell asleep quickly, and God blessed her with no dreams all night.
On the contrary, it was Liu's father and Liu's mother, the two of them tossed and turned in bed and didn't fall asleep much.
