Gong Xue arrived in Mobei just in the early morning of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. It was a cold and windy airport. Even if she was wearing a down jacket, she could still feel the biting cold wind of winter penetrating through her clothes and getting into her skin, which was bone-chilling.
Mobei Airport is slightly larger than Mangshi Airport, but it is much worse than Capital Airport. In the early morning, there were not many people picking up people at the exit. She lowered her head and walked, planning to find a phone to notify Nanjiang first.
Plateau and Su Lianlian in Beijing. They were both still awake, waiting for news of her safe arrival.
I didn't expect to see grandpa.
At the front of the crowd stood his no longer straight and strong body. When he saw Gong Xue, his tight lips moved and he raised his hand with difficulty.
"Grandpa--------Grandpa---------" The wave of longing that could no longer be suppressed made her run towards Mr. Gong with flying steps.
Elder Gong opened his arms and held the helpless little bird in his arms tightly.
"Good boy...go home...go home..."
Xiao Wang couldn't bear to look anymore, turned around and wiped the tears from his face, and said goodbye silently. Gong Mingjun seemed to be unable to bear it, but did not come forward. His wife, Gong Xue's second aunt Zhang Suqin, held her son Gong Tao tightly.
shoulder to prevent his son from coming forward to look for his sister.
Gong Tao glared at his mother with tears streaming down his face. He hated his mother, he hated his father, he hated them for ignoring family ties and treating his sister so viciously.
Finally, he struggled to break away from the suppression and ran towards Gong Xue, "Sister-------"
He used too much force and ran straight into Gong Xue's arms, knocking her staggering. He hugged his sister's thin waist tightly and cried loudly. "Sister---------
-They don't care about you, I care about you, I'll take care of you...I'll take care of you..."
Gong Xue's nose felt sore, little Gong Tao...
Sister, a word from you is enough...
After sighing, the group went home from the airport. Mr. Gong sat in the passenger seat, and Gong Mingjun’s family and Gong Xue crowded in the back seat. Gong Tao sat next to Gong Xue, and he deliberately turned his head towards Gong Xue and kept asking
The problem is that he doesn't give his selfish and cruel parents a chance to talk to Gong Xue.
Gong Xue received the resentful look in her second aunt's eyes. She turned her head and looked at her calmly. The second aunt was still very tough at first, but then her toughness gradually weakened. If you look carefully, you can still see the vague guilt and guilt in her eyes.
Confused.
Gong Mingjun knew that he was in the wrong and never dared to look at Gong Xue. Instead, Gong Xue smiled and said to his second uncle: "Captain Qin has brought you a gift. I will give it to you when I get home."
Gong Tao secretly squeezed her hand, and she patted Gong Tao and gently shook her head at him.
In the car, she borrowed Gong Tao's cell phone and sent a text message to Su Lianlian to report that she was safe. Su Lianlian soon called back. She said that after the exchange performance was over, she would ask for leave and go home to be with her.
She didn't call Gao Yuan, firstly because her family members were all present, and secondly, there were some things she wanted to say to him alone.
Aunt Tian didn't know how long she had been crying at home. When she saw Xiaoxue pushing the door in, her whole face was swollen. She didn't dare to cry too loudly to arouse Zhang Suqin's disgust, so Aunt Tian could only hold Gong Xue's hand tightly.
Hands, even though her vision has been covered with tears, she still can't bear to look away from Gong Xue.
Gong Xue looked sad and quiet, which did not add any extra psychological burden to Aunt Tian. Aunt Tian made her favorite shredded chicken noodles and specially nested two poached eggs. Aunt Tian watched her finish the noodles with her own eyes.
Then he sighed and watched her go upstairs...
The room is still the same, the furnishings are still the same, but the heart has gone through vicissitudes of life.
She sat silently by the bed for a while before remembering that she had not reported safety to Gao Yuan. She opened the drawer and saw the mobile phone she had forgotten at home, lying quietly next to the diary her father had given her, in thick black.
Blue is calm, complementing each other and relying on each other....
There was a faint pain in her heart. She pressed her chest with her fingertips, touched the raised marks on the necklace, and slowly closed her eyes.
While waiting for her cell phone to charge, she went downstairs to visit her grandfather. The grandfather and grandson didn't exchange a few words at the airport. After returning home, they had a lot of chores to do. They were afraid that he would be too hard, so they asked him to go back to his room to rest early.
Grandpa's bedroom was very simple. Apart from the bed and cabinets, there were no other valuable furniture. She knocked on the door and went in. She saw an old man half leaning against the bedside reading a book. The dim light from the table lamp reflected her grandfather's old figure.
.
When grandpa saw her, his dull eyes flashed with light. He waved his hand: "Xiaoxue, come here and talk to grandpa."
Gong Xue gently closed the door, walked to her grandfather's bed, and sat down quietly.
Grandpa is really old. During the time she left, he seemed to have aged ten years. Originally, his face did not have such heavy wrinkles, but now, not only are it full of ravines, but also age spots.
Came out to cause trouble...
Mr. Gong doesn't care whether he is old or not. The only thing he cares about now is his only granddaughter.
Mr. Gong sighed, propped up half of his body from the bedside, and wanted Gong Xue to hear clearly: "Xiaoxue, don't worry, your future life has been arranged by grandpa." He pointed to the cabinet in the corner and said in a low voice:
"My life savings are all placed in the bottom box. If one day...grandpa passes away, that will be your dowry, do you understand?"
Gong Xue was slightly shocked, "Grandpa..."
Mr. Gong raised his hand and signaled her not to refuse, "You can control the pension by yourself. You can spend it however you want. Grandpa has no objection." He completely trusted his granddaughter, because Gong Xue was not a child who didn't know how to be thrifty. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done anything.
It took me until now to buy myself a mobile phone.
Gong Xue did not speak or nod. She was silent for a moment, then changed the subject and chatted with her grandfather about her experiences in southern Xinjiang. When she mentioned the veteran, her grandfather also sighed and told Gong Xue to go to him tomorrow.
Take some money from your bankbook and send it to the veteran...
Gong Xue smiled and agreed. Seeing that it was late, she helped her grandfather take the medicine, turned off the light, and then went upstairs.
When I opened the door, I found someone sitting next to the bed who shouldn't be there.
Second aunt, Zhang Suqin.
She was wearing a lively and tacky floral nightgown, and she was holding up Gong Xue's mobile phone with interest, showing her a contemptuous smile.
Snap!
Gong Xue slammed the door, rushed over in a few steps, and wanted to snatch the phone from the second aunt's hand. But the second aunt reacted very quickly, unplugged the line, hid and left.
"Give it back to me!" Gong Xue was really angry and didn't want to be polite to her.
The second aunt Zhang Suqin snorted and sneered, spitting at Gong Xue, "I'm so ashamed of your parents. If a sixteen-year-old girl doesn't study hard, she just follows the female gangster to learn puppy love!"
