"What kind of old Chinese medicine doctor did you really make an appointment for me?"

The three of them were silent along the way, no one spoke, and after a while, Mei Li in the back seat asked faintly.

"Ah, where we eat, the main health and medicinal diet is aimed at people like you who are weak and have no major problems, their ancestors were palace doctors. ”

Xie Zhiyan explained incompatibly.

Merry: "??"

Xie Meimei: "???"

"What about the old Chinese medicine doctor who made an appointment in advance?" Xie Meimei asked after all, so she asked.

"This shop is in demand, and you usually have to make a reservation in advance, otherwise there will be no seats. ”

Mei Li snorted and covered her mouth and laughed, and reached out to slap Xie Zhiyan on the back, when the two were very young, their husbands also had such a naughty side, but as he worked longer and longer, this side was rarely seen again.

"Wow! It turns out that Dad just now is-" Xie Meimei didn't finish speaking, it turned out that Dad was a liar just now, and she didn't want to deal with Aunt Ye and deliberately made an excuse, but she thought about it, this is good, if Dad listened to Aunt Ye's get out of the car to make up for Xiaowei's lesson, then she would be angry.

"What's Daddy?"

Xie Zhiyan lowered his head and asked his daughter.

"It's a nice dad, only for today. ”

Xie Meimei is not so easily moved, mainly because there are too many moments of shock in the process of growing up, so her heart is not so simply melted.

The gift she poor wanted was given to her father to other more pitiful children in the blink of an eye, and this happened more than once or twice, so that she couldn't tell who the "poor" child was.

There is also a white dress to wear in the performance costume, all the classmates have bought new ones, only she does not, but there is an old one, small and gray, standing in the crowd during the rehearsal, you can see at a glance, Mom's salary has been used up for all kinds of expenses for her, and Dad, he will only say that there are still many children in this world who can't afford to wear new clothes, and she is happy enough, there are new clothes to wear every year, the old ones are also very good, they are not broken, they can still be worn, the value of people is not the new and old clothes they wear, but the beauty and ugliness of the soul.

On the day of the performance, she had to pretend to be sick and take leave, and never signed up for any group activities again.

Those lively discussions with girls will not bring her again, new clothes, new shoes, cartoon stickers and pencil cases, high-class mechanical pencils, scented erasers. Because she's unsociable, because she's not interested.

Only Xie Meimei knew, and that was because she didn't.

Rather than being laughed at, it is better to take the initiative to stay away.

Jingle bell, Xie Zhiyan stopped, supported the ground with one long leg, waited for his wife to come down, and then hugged his daughter down.

A family of three just walked into the unremarkable door in front of them, and it was quiet inside, Xie Zhiyan seemed to have come, and directly took the mother and daughter to the second floor, pushed open the door on the left side of the aisle, and then said to the waiter in black overalls outside the door, "You can serve the food, just come as scheduled." ”

There was also a separate bathroom in the room, and Xie Meimei felt very curious, so that she went to the toilet without urinating, and observed it inside and out before sitting down again.

"It's pretty good here. ”

She cautiously drew her conclusions.

The waiter serves the food, the adults serve the tea, and the children serve the juice.

Xie Zhiyan patted her head when he heard this, "Taste it quickly, if you like it, we'll come back next time." ”

He also sandwiched two chopsticks for Mei Li, "You also eat more, I've been busy recently, you said that you were asking for leave to rest, but you didn't rest well or eat well." ”

Xie Meimei drank slightly sour freshly squeezed juice and ate steamed eggs with shrimp, only feeling full of fresh fragrance, looking at her parents with big eyes, and her heart was indescribably happy.

Other children of the same age are under the care of their parents, and on weekends they either play in the park to play with amusement facilities, or go on outings or visit relatives and friends, and they can go to the supermarket at the worst, but Xie Meimei has little experience of visiting the supermarket, let alone with her parents.

Xie Zhiyan has always sacrificed himself for others, and money, goods and time have always been for other people who are more pitiful and in need of help.

Mei Li also found a part-time job in addition to work, and in order to support the family, she could only provide her daughter with the most basic living needs.

Xie Meimei is a child who has not seen much of the world, low self-esteem and extreme self-esteem, first of all, to observe any environment, and study hard to keep herself from showing timidity. The external feeling is that it is not easy to approach, and it makes people feel that this child is not likable.

But today, since she was supported by her father at school and killed Wu Xinlan, Xie Meimei's mood has been maintained until the end of the meal, and there are even jokes.

This is too rare, and when she falls asleep when she gets home in the evening, Mei Li sits on the sofa and poses to have a good talk with Xie Zhiyan.

"Aren't you tired?" Xie Zhiyan was a little tired, he didn't sleep much at all when he accompanied the child who had surgery last night, and it was another vicious battle to get to school early in the morning, and he knew it now after a day of class.

"Tired, especially in the last two years, there are few times when you are not tired, but even if you are tired, you have to make things clear. ”

Merry said softly, a cup of hot water had been poured in front of her, and it was smoking.

Xie Zhiyan looked stunned, pulled a chair and sat face to face with her.

"Well, I'd like to talk to you too. ”

Merry nodded, didn't look at him, just stared at the cup of tea, "When I was very young, I really thought that you were the most warm-hearted, sincere, and reliable person in the world, and you sometimes made yourself embarrassed and miserable in order to help others, and I even thought it was cute." I like such people, and I admire you like this, and you also need someone to support your dreams, your behavior, so we fell in love, got married, and had a lovely daughter. Until now, I still feel that you are the most enthusiastic and kind person I know, but for me and my daughter, such a day with no end in sight is getting more and more tiring day by day. Sometimes I even think, what am I holding onto, what am I defending, why should I watch my lovely daughter suffer these unfair treatments, our daughter is unhappy, and I am not happy, but you have never seen it, you only have those who are more pitiful and helpless and need help than us. I have worked hard, I work two jobs, I want to make up for your share of the debt to my daughter, but it is useless, my daughter will not have a family to accompany her on the basis of material poverty, what happened to my daughter at school recently - I see it, Xie Zhiyan, I also admit it. Thank you for taking my daughter and me to dinner today, she was finally a little happy. ”

Mei Li raised her head, her eyes full of tiredness: "Xie Zhiyan, I want to divorce." ”
