After a while, Zhang Yunfei got out of the car, and Yao Hong continued to drive Xiaowei home.
I saw more and more acquaintances along the way. Some said hello, some talked behind my back, and of course some laughed.
Ling Xiaowei took out a silk scarf, put it on her head, and covered her face, so that she could be out of sight and out of mind, and not let those people recognize her. As expected, it was much quieter this way. She met several people on the road, staring at her hard.
Look, but he didn't recognize her, so he didn't say anything.
By the time I recognized her and wanted to shout, she was already gone.
After crossing the stone bridge and finally arriving home, Ling Xiaowei felt very emotional.
From a distance, I saw two children, Mingming and Xiaohua, squatting on the ground and playing in the mud at the intersection!
"Obviously, Xiaohua, guess who is back!" Yao Hong shouted from a distance.
The two children, Ming Ming and Xiao Hua, had muddy faces, stretched their necks, and stared at them curiously.
After the car came to a stop, Ming Ming asked in a mature manner: "Who is here?" Ming Ming saw a person sitting behind the car wearing a beautiful floral silk scarf on his head, but he couldn't tell what he looked like.
But she looks a bit like her sister.
"Are you my sister?" Ming Ming asked with a curious expression.
Ling Xiaowei stopped teasing the two children, pulled down the silk scarf on her face, and said with a smile: "Obviously, Xiaohua, my sister is back!"
"Wow! It's really my sister!" Ming Ming jumped up happily.
Xiaohua also jumped and shouted.
Xiaowei came back, and soon the family members of the surrounding neighbors came out of their houses to watch.
"Hey, Xiaowei, are you back? I thought you went to the city and met the rich grandpa and never came back!" the neighbor's aunt behind the house said sarcastically with a smile.
This aunt can do it. She didn't dare to speak to her like this before. There was no time when she met her that she was not polite. Now that her factory was closed, she immediately started to ridicule her.
Ling Xiaowei gave the other party a cold look and had no time to talk to her.
"Let's go home." Ling Xiaowei walked home and entered her yard. In the yard, Zhang Cuifen was chopping vegetables in the field at the door and feeding the chickens at home.
"Xiaowei! You... are finally back!" When Zhang Cuifen saw Ling Xiaowei, she stood up excitedly and wiped her hands while saying: "I really have no choice, I don't know what to do!"
"How is my dad?" Ling Xiaowei didn't have time to see Zhang Cuifen's tears and went straight into the main room.
Zhang Cuifen followed and said to Xiaowei: "Your father is lying on the bed in the room! He looks very bad. He has been coughing non-stop at night these past few days."
"I'll go in and take a look." Ling Xiaowei felt very worried when she heard her father coughing. She somehow thought of Qi Lei's mother, who coughed one after another, and finally left like this.
She couldn't imagine what she would do in the future if her father did the same thing!
The door to the room opened with a creak. The room was dark and had an unpleasant medicinal smell. The windows of the room were closed tightly and the curtains were drawn.
Dad, with his head tilted to one side and lying face inward, seemed to be asleep.
Ling Xiaowei felt sour in her heart and shouted softly: "Dad, I'm back!"
When Ling Guoqiang heard the movement, he trembled slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaowei, why are you back?"
"Dad, this is my home, of course I want to come back." Ling Xiaowei said in a relaxed tone, and then said with a slightly complaining tone: "Dad, why don't you open the window."
As Ling Xiaowei spoke, she opened the curtains and opened the window, "The air in the room is not circulating and the air is not fresh. How can it be good for the body?"
"Cough cough cough..." Ling Guo coughed violently a few times, then lay down on the bedside and took a long breath.
Ling Xiaowei turned around and looked back. When she saw her father's thin face and the dark eyes, she felt extremely sad. Her eyes suddenly became sore and tears were about to fall.
She couldn't cry, and she couldn't cry in front of her father now. Ling Xiaowei turned around, pretending that she didn't fix the window, secretly held back her tears, then turned around and said with a normal expression: "Dad, what did the doctor say about your illness?"
"I'm fine." Ling Guoqiang said solemnly.
"Who said it's okay? You've already vomited blood. The doctor told you not to worry. Don't worry. You're so anxious that you've hurt your lungs." Zhang Cuifen stood at the door and cried anxiously.
It was so serious that she vomited blood. Ling Xiaowei's body stiffened slightly and she was very scared.
But the more this happened, the less anxious she could be. She said to Aunt Zhang: "Then what did the doctor say about recuperation?"
"I told you, I'll prescribe a few prescriptions and drink them twice a day, so that he can take a good rest recently, don't be upset, don't be anxious." Zhang Cuifen said suddenly, while wiping her tears, "But he won't be in a hurry any day, and the medicine won't be enough."
If you refuse to drink, I really have no choice. Xiaowei, please persuade your father! As long as you are here, we will bear the rest together."
Hearing this, Ling Xiaowei was slightly moved, and at the same time she breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she could take good care of herself, it was not a fatal disease. As long as her father was good, she had nothing to be afraid of.
Now all she has to do is do ideological work for her father.
"Carry it together? You want your child to be unable to hold his head up with you for the rest of his life!" the father said angrily.
Ling Xiaowei felt something was wrong when she heard it. It seemed like there was some conflict between her father and Aunt Zhang.
"Anyway, I won't leave. If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. If the sky falls, I and you will hold it together. If we can't hold it anymore, we will be crushed to death together at worst." Zhang Cuifen said with red eyes, holding on to her hand.
Holding a handkerchief, I kept wiping my tears.
This... Ling Xiaowei felt that she was a little shocked, and at the same time she was force-fed a mouthful of dog food. This picture of Cuifen really has a deep affection for her father, which is very touching!
She can no longer remember her selfish and mean attitude in her previous life. People will really change due to the environment and people. This is a living example. Now that the family is like this, she is willing to stay and still
If they say they want to carry it together, it really doesn't sound like a pretense.
"What nonsense are you talking about in front of children!" Ling Guoqiang also felt a little embarrassed. He was happy from the bottom of his heart that Zhang Cuifen could say these words, but how could he be willing to let the children suffer!
"Xiaowei, you go out first, I'll talk to your Aunt Zhang." Ling Guoqiang waved to Xiaowei.
Ling Xiaowei nodded, turned around and went out.
Zhang Cuifen entered the room and closed the door.
Outside the house, Yao Hong was waiting at the door with her child in her arms. When she saw Xiaowei coming out, she hurriedly asked: "How's it going? Did you give your dad some advice?"
"We haven't had time to talk yet. Dad has something to say with Aunt Zhang." Ling Xiaowei pointed to the room and said.
Yao Hong nodded, her expression a little solemn, and she looked at Mingming and Xiaohua aside.
