390 Leaving home
Qian Meifeng didn't come for a day, and it wasn't until the morning of the second day of junior high school that she cleaned up neatly. Called Wang Baoyu of the West House, the two of them came to the East House together, standing in front of the two old men, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to speak for a long time.
Jia Zhengdao and Lin Zhaodi thought that when the two young people were going to talk about marriage, their faces had already shown joy, Jia Zhengdao stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Baoyu, Meifeng, what are you doing standing there, tell your parents if you have anything to say, everything will be handled by your parents!" ”
"That's it, my mother is waiting for that day! My mother will be old in two years, but I can't show you the children anymore, hehe. Lin Zhaodi combed the hair on her sideburns, and said with a happy face.
"Dad, mother, Meifeng and I decided to break up." It was Wang Baoyu who spoke first.
"What did you say?" Jia Zhengdao's eyes widened, he didn't expect that what he was waiting for was such a result, and Lin Zhaodi also stood up in surprise.
"Dad, I mean that Meifeng and I are no longer together, but she will still be your goddaughter in the future, that is, my sister." Wang Baoyu explained that he did not speak loudly.
Lin Zhaodi trembled her hands, pulled Qian Meifeng, and asked in disbelief: "Meifeng, you tell your mother, Baoyu is talking nonsense!" ”
Qian Meifeng lowered her head, but tears flowed down, Lin Zhaodi unwillingly let go of her hand, and finally couldn't help crying loudly.
"You bastard!" Jia Zhengdao understood, he was so angry that his beard was about to puff up, he casually touched a large porcelain bowl on the table, and smashed it at Wang Baoyu.
Maybe he was still reluctant to really hit Wang Baoyu, the crosshair was a little off, the big bowl rubbed Wang Baoyu's ear, hit the glass of the door, and with a bang, the glass and porcelain bowl turned into crumbs in an instant and fell to the ground. Wang Baoyu only felt a burning pain in his ears, but this pain could not be compared with the wound in his heart.
"Baoyu, why are you so ruthless, where is Meifeng sorry for you?" Lin Zhaodi was also anxious, and couldn't help but say, stepped forward and stretched out her hand to hit Wang Baoyu in the face. Wang Baoyu stood there and didn't dodge, since he was a child, his parents had never beaten him, this time, he really broke the hearts of the two old men.
hit the child's body, the pain was in the mother's heart, Lin Zhaodi was in tears, and slapped it loudly again, she cried: "Son, wake up!" Wake up! ”
"Mother, don't hit Baoyu, I brought it up first." Qian Meifeng was anxious and stepped forward to stop Lin Zhaodi, but tears flowed out.
"Meifeng, don't be afraid, your father and mother are your masters! If he dares to say a word, I will kill this bastard today, when I have raised him for so many years! Lin Zhaodi said tremblingly, but her hand did not stop, and she hit Wang Baoyu in the face while pulling in the air.
"Baoyu, you should hide!" Qian Meifeng hurriedly stood in front of Wang Baoyu and shouted, but Wang Baoyu didn't mean to move, just stood there without moving.
At this time, Qian Meifeng fell to her knees all of a sudden, choked up and said: "Daddy, I have changed my mind, I don't like Baoyu anymore, if you want to blame me, blame me!" Mother, don't hit Baoyu, you hit me! Hit me! Mother! ”
Lin Zhaodi cried, she hurriedly picked up Qian Meifeng, and said, "Meifeng, you are a good girl, your father and mother see it in your eyes!" Alas! Or Baoyu doesn't have this blessing. ”
"Dad, mother, I will treat Meifeng as my own sister and will not treat her badly." Wang Baoyu has made up his mind and solemnly said.
"Baoyu, don't say it, Dad doesn't want to hear it!" Jia Zhengdao waved his hand at Wang Baoyu and twisted his face to the side.
"Dad, mother, there are still a lot of things to do in the unit, and my son wants to go back immediately." Wang Baoyu felt that the current situation, staying here would only make the two old men even more sad, so he wanted to leave immediately, time is a good medicine, which can heal the wounds in everyone's hearts.
"If you want to get out, get out early!" Jia Zhengdao roared, grabbed the dry tobacco pouch on the table and just wanted to smoke it on Wang Baoyu, but he was reluctant, and finally he could only break it on his leg, and the dry tobacco pouch that had followed him for decades broke into two in an instant.
"Daddy! If you don't get angry, scold me! Wang Baoyu couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted loudly with tears.
"Let's go! Dad was tired too. Jia Zhengdao didn't look at Wang Baoyu, sighed and agreed.
Wang Baoyu turned his head and left the house, walking far away from the house, only Lin Zhaodi's shout came from behind: "Baoyu, my son, remember to come back!" ”
"Mother, don't worry, I will come back to see you often." Wang Baoyu turned around and shouted, seeing Qian Meifeng supporting the thin Lin Zhaodi, standing at the gate and waving at him, his heart was sour, and he hurriedly quickened his pace and stepped on the road to Liuhe Town.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, it was the day to go back to his parents' home, there were many cars on the road, and every passerby was beaming, and Wang Baoyu was not happy, and he also knew that the people in his family were also in sadness. Is it all self-inflicted, and is it right or wrong?
Wang Baoyu didn't want to take the car, he just wanted to walk, be quiet, think about it, this time he returned to his hometown, he was not happy, but he left an indelible regret.
A few times subconsciously turned around, and no longer saw the figure wearing a red down jacket and holding a bicycle in anticipation, Wang Baoyu realized that he was looking forward to that figure every time he came back, and only when he saw that figure, his heart would be steady, and he felt that he was really home.
However, at this moment, Wang Baoyu also knew in his heart that this figure would only appear in his memory or in his dreams again, and everything would turn into the past, and one day it would disappear.
In the afternoon, Wang Baoyu returned to Liuhe Town tiredly, the government compound was deserted, just the second day of the Lunar New Year, the leaders all went to visit relatives and friends, or got together to play mahjong and drink, Wang Baoyu went to work so early, it seemed very unusual.
The doorman Lao Wu praised Wang Baoyu's dedication, Wang Baoyu didn't bother to pay attention to him, chatted with him casually, and then went back to the office to smoke a cigarette. For a few days, Wang Baoyu smoked in the office in a daze during the day, and went back to the guest house to sleep at night, without doing anything, after a few days, the whole person was unkempt, his beard was unkempt, and he looked thinner, no matter what, he needed time to accept the fact that Qian Meifeng really left him.
It wasn't until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year that Cheng Guodong learned the news of Wang Baoyu's work, and took the initiative to call him and invite Wang Baoyu to play at home.
