After carrying my sister on my back, I noticed that my father was holding a cat in his hand. At this time, the kitten's eyes were shining.
"Dad, when did you get the cat?"
"Dad just came here from your Aunt Liu's house in the factory today. Let him accompany you so that you won't be bored when you are alone at home in the future." My father smiled kindly and said to me.
I'm still a little confused about my father's sudden arrival here.
Why did he appear when this happened to me?
In my impression, my father is a simple and honest middle-aged man who is usually taciturn and seldom speaks.
The communication between father and son is only during meals.
But today his critical moment has arrived. In my eyes, the image of that simple and honest father has become taller and more mysterious.
I can be sure that the scene my sister and I saw before was not an illusion.
When I said that, I was just trying to comfort Teacher Bai, my sister. At the same time, I was also trying to comfort myself. I was just deceiving myself a little.
That's right, cat.
I saw in Grandpa Lin’s Yin-Yang House that cats are spiritual and can see strange things that are not clean and invisible to humans.
The father arrived, holding a cat in his arms.
With doubts, I didn't ask any more questions and kept walking forward with my father. I saw that we were only about 500 meters away from home.
Suddenly!
The cat in my father's hand jumped out and meowed, while my father stood beside me.
"Xiaoxia, you take your teacher Bai back first, and I'll go get the cat back."
"Oh, okay, Father." I nodded, but the fear in my mind still lingered in my heart. I was afraid that something would happen to my father, so I said, "Dad, it's so late, it's not good for you to chase the cat alone, right?"
What if you see something unclean?"
"Silly boy, your father and I are not that timid. Don't worry, go back." My father smiled at me and watched me carry Teacher Bai home.
But what I didn’t know was that when Teacher Bai and I disappeared from his sight.
The father's expression changed. He looked in the direction in which the cat was chasing, and his expression became cold. There was an incomprehensible wisdom in his eyes, without the slightest hint of simplicity.
"You dare to scare my son like this, then I will do justice to God today."
After saying that, he walked towards the night where the kitten disappeared.
Besides, I carried my sister on my back until I got home and laid her down on my dog bed. The uneasy feeling in my heart gradually faded away.
Simply sort out the messy objects.
I found a new towel, wiped her face, and then applied it to his forehead.
After I finished doing these things, my father just opened the door and walked in with the kitten in his arms. He came directly to my room and asked: "Xiaoxia, is your teacher awake?"
"Dad, you are back."
"Well, I'm back. Don't take that road in the future, or don't take that road too late." My father smiled honestly like a man who had nothing to do.
I wanted to ask more questions, but seeing his appearance, I just smiled.
"Xiaoxia, don't leave me and don't come here." My sister lying on my bed was trembling and kept talking nonsense.
"Dad, sister, will she be okay?" I looked at my sister on the bed, reached out to grab her hand, and quickly told my father that Teacher Bai recognized me as his younger brother.
"Haha, you kid, you are lucky! Okay, don't worry, it will be fine in a while." The father laughed, but the sister did not wake up, so he frowned slightly, said an explanation, and walked out.
Not long after, I saw him spend three pieces of paper, burn it to ashes, twist a little with his fingers and sprinkle it in the bowl, and walk in with it.
"Xiaoxia, give this to your sister to drink." The father smiled.
I nodded, took the bowl, and drank it directly for my sister.
"Okay, you should wake up in a few minutes." My father said to me.
After my sister drank it, I looked at my father and said, "Dad, Teacher Bai recognizes me as her younger brother. Do you have any objection?"
"Haha, you kid, I've already told you, this is your blessing. It's not too late for dad to be happy that he can have half a daughter. However, I think it would be better if she is a daughter-in-law. For you to marry such a beautiful little girl, it is considered a blessing.
Our Lao Yin family has burned incense."
"Dad, don't make such a joke. I'm still a young boy. I don't know what age it was when we were talking about marriage. Besides, why would my sister fall in love with me?"
I immediately retorted to my father.
"Xiaoxia, where am I?"
While I was talking to my father, my sister slowly woke up and looked at me in fear.
"Sister, it's okay, you've arrived at my house." I held her hand and said to her with a smile.
"Who is this?" When I heard that I was home, my sister nodded, looked at my father, and asked me.
"Sister, this is my dad. He is a very nice person, but he doesn't like to talk much."
"I've met my uncle." My sister sat up and glanced around the surrounding environment, her face a little red with embarrassment.
"Teacher Bai...oh, no, she will be half of my daughter from now on." My father made a rare joke.
"Sister, I told my dad that you recognized me as your younger brother." Looking at my sister's confusion, I explained from the sidelines.
"Okay, I'm going to put the bowls away. I'll call you when I finish cooking." The father smiled and walked out.
When my father went out, I looked at my sister and smiled awkwardly at her: "Sister, our family is very poor, don't mind, this is my room, just make do with it."
"Silly boy, do you think my sister is someone you would dislike?" My sister's emotional intelligence is not ordinary. Seeing that I was a little reserved, she smiled.
However, there was a bit of paleness in her smile. Apparently, what happened just now was still imprinted in her mind, and she was still frightened.
"As long as my sister doesn't dislike it."
"Okay, we have become friends in times of need, we are really brothers and sisters." My sister asked, "How did I come back just now?"
"Oh, I came back with you on my back." I briefly told her what my father had just come to see us.
After hearing this, my sister nodded with a smile and said, "You didn't take advantage of me, did you?"
But after she asked this question, her face turned red. She obviously recalled the scene of holding me in her mind.
"Sister, when I carry you, I have to hold you in my arms." I answered very honestly.
"You're a bad boy, you can't tell, but you're quite honest." My sister rolled her eyes at me, looking at how cute I was, and said with a smile.
I scratched my head in embarrassment and smiled stupidly.
I answered whatever she asked. After a while, I found that my sister was kind and not as dignified as she was in class, so I became bolder.
"By the way, Xiaoxia, how did uncle know which way we were going?" My sister suddenly interrupted me and asked.
Everything seems strange and bizarre tonight.
In fact, she didn't need to ask, I was also wondering in my heart, how could it be such a coincidence that my father went there? And that cat?
Something seems unusual, but I just can't figure it out.
