();

The Zhu family was in the middle of the camp, next to a small river, Jiahe knew that the Zhu family was there, and trotted to the gate of the Zhu family.

Except for the gates at night, the rest of the time the country houses are either open or hidden.

The door of the Zhu family was half open, and Jiahe stood at the door and shouted twice, "Zhu Wanying, Zhu Wanying." ”

No one answered inside, and Jiahe had no choice but to go inside.

Fortunately, the Zhu family didn't have a dog, so Jiahe came to the door of the house, he didn't want to open the door directly and enter the house, so he wanted to knock on the door.

As soon as he raised his hand to knock on the door, he heard movement in the house.

"I know all day long that I run out, don't I know how much work I have at home?

I have to wash clothes and cook all day and serve these little ones, why don't you know how to help the family?

You know how to play all day long, and you know how to go out and go wild, I think you just owe a beating. "It was a woman's voice.

"Mom, I didn't play, I went to school to rehearse.

The teacher asked me to go to the art show, and I had to go to rehearsals every afternoon.

Didn't my dad agree to what I told my dad and mom before? A girl's weak voice sounded, it should be Zhu Wanying's right.

"What does your dad know? Does he know how much is going on in the family?

He works outside all day, how much has he taken care of the affairs of the family?

What is the use of performing theatrical performances? Can you earn money back after acting?

When is this, how many days are left before the Chinese New Year? Look at this house, there is nothing to clean up, why are you so idle?

Hurry up and tell your teacher, don't go to rehearsals, you have that time, you have washed all the clothes at home, and the bedding has not been dismantled and washed. ”

The woman's voice seemed to be raised a little, with some impatience.

"Isn't the eldest sister at home? Why doesn't the eldest sister wash it? All this work is waiting for me to come back and do it, how much can I do alone? ”

The little girl's voice sounded again, although weak, but it also sounded a little stubborn.

"You damn girl, why do you talk so much when you make you work?

Your eldest sister wants to help me coax the fifth and sixth children, she is very busy, if you don't do these jobs, don't eat at night. ”

The woman's voice sharpened, accompanied by a snap.

Jiahe's heart jumped when he heard the voice outside, it's bad, this Zhu Wanying can't get it right, she was beaten.

"Is anyone home? Aunt Zhu, I am Qu Jiahe, and I am looking for Zhu Wanying. Jiahe said loudly as he knocked on the door.

Jiahe's voice alarmed the people in the house, and there was no movement in the room for a moment.

After a while, a woman came out of the house. "Yo, it's the son of Director Qu's family, you came to our family Yingzi?"

Jiahe glanced at the woman, in her thirties, wearing a blue padded jacket, blue pants, and short hair.

He doesn't look ugly, and his smile looks kind.

If he hadn't heard what this woman said just now, and heard the sound of the slap, looking at his appearance, he really thought that Zhu Wanying, the stepmother, was very good.

"Hello auntie, that's right, classmate Zhu rehearsed with us, and the teacher chose her to lead the singing.

Our teacher was afraid that she would not have the right outfit for the stage, so she told my mother that she wanted to borrow the costume that my sister was wearing.

My mother said that she would let Zhu go over and measure her figure so that she could make some changes to her clothes. ”

In other people's affairs, Jiahe naturally didn't want to say anything nonsense, so he just smiled politely.

The woman listened to Jiahe's words and was slightly stunned.

She didn't want Wanying to participate in any show rehearsals at all, how good it would be to have that time to do more work at home?

But listening to the meaning of the boy in front of him, the teacher attached great importance to Wanying, and even helped borrow clothes.

The woman lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then turned her head and shouted into the room.

"Eiko, come out quickly, your classmates are coming for you. Hurry up, go to Dr. Chen, they want to lend you clothes. ”

Zhu Wanying had already heard what was said outside in the house, but she didn't dare to come out, and at this moment she heard her mother calling her, so she came out of the house.

"Qu Jiahe, thank you." The little girl glanced at Jiahe and said very gratefully.

Jiahe glanced at Zhu Wanying, the little girl should have wiped her face in the house, but she didn't see any tears, but her eyes were a little red.

There is still some redness on the left cheek, but it is not particularly noticeable, and it is estimated that it has been compressed with cold water.

Jiahe sighed, no wonder outsiders said that Zhu Wanying's stepmother was not bad, it turned out that this was the case.

"Eiko, since the teacher values you so much, then you have to rehearse well, this is a rare opportunity, you can't miss it, you know?

Okay, there's nothing going on at home, since Dr. Chen is looking for you, then you should hurry over.

Don't rush back, just go out and have fun, just remember to come back for dinner. ”

The old daughter-in-law Zhu has a loving smile on her face, and people who don't know the root will think that this stepmother is really good.

Jiahe didn't have anything to say about the affairs of the Zhu family, so he only nodded towards Zhu Wanying.

"Let's go, my mother said, you have to look at your height and find a way to clean up your clothes, otherwise you won't fit well."

Zhu Wanying glanced at the old daughter-in-law, "Mom, then I'll go out first, and I'll come back to cook later."

Don't do any more work, the fifth and sixth have to be taken care of. After speaking, he went out of Zhu's house with Jiahe and walked towards the health center.

On the way, Jiahe couldn't hold back a little and asked, "Well, did your mother beat you just now?"

I shouted a few times outside and no one answered, so I went into the yard to look for you, and stood outside the door of your house for a while, and heard you talking to your mother in the house. ”

Zhu Wanying was stunned, a look of panic flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly shook her head.

"No, no, you heard me wrong, my mother is very good to me, she doesn't beat me."

Jiahe was stunned for a moment, I don't understand why this girl doesn't tell the truth?

Obviously, he heard that the woman slapped Zhu Wanying, why didn't he admit it?

Jiahe felt that this girl was too timid, and she must have scared her stepmother and didn't dare to tell the truth.

"Forget it, your family's affairs have nothing to do with me, if you don't say it, you will pull it down.

I'm just afraid that you won't be able to participate in the show, and then I will have to rehearse with others, which will be too troublesome. Let's go, my mom is still waiting. ”

Jiahe felt that he didn't appreciate his kindness, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, and his tone of voice was a little bad.

Zhu Wanying is a sensitive child, and as soon as she heard Jiahe's tone, she knew that Jiahe was angry.

But she didn't know why Jiahe was angry, just because she didn't tell the truth?

What if she says it? Who can be angry for her? Who can support her?

What if someone supported her? But for a while, won't she still live in this house in the future?

Before she grows up and is not self-reliant, what can she do if she can't bear to swallow her anger?

If you make a big fuss, you can only suffer, and the fool will ignore the fuss, endure it for a while, and wait until she grows up.
