On the afternoon of the fourth day after my mother left, my father suddenly received a phone call. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
After hanging up the phone, he suddenly became depressed, and looked very nervous, I asked him what was wrong and he didn't tell me, this is the only time I grew up, seeing my father so panicked, he handed me over to the neighbor's house and hurried out. My dad didn't say anything to me before leaving, and he didn't leave anything for the neighbors.
I spent six whole days in boredom and curiosity.
At noon on the sixth day, my father finally came home, but for some reason, I saw that his eyes were red, his eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn't rested for a long time, and his spirit was particularly sluggish.
But my dad came back this time and brought me a remote control toy car, but although this car looks new, it seems to have fallen, and there are cracks in the shell, Rao is so, I am still excited, you must know that my father is very strict with me on weekdays, and rarely buys me toys, I didn't expect him to be so generous this time, which really surprised me.
My tired dad slept at home for two whole days before he got up, and when I asked him where he was, he wouldn't tell me anything, and he wouldn't tell me anything about my mother.
In the end, I couldn't help it, so my dad shirked to me and said that he had been on the phone with my mother, and my mother was serving my grandmother, so it was inconvenient, and my grandmother didn't like my father and me, and her condition was serious, and then I knew that my mother and we were talking on the phone would only aggravate the condition.
I thought it made sense for my dad to say that, so I didn't bother anymore.
Unexpectedly, while I was waiting for my mother to come back and buy me a car, my father had already begun to pack his things and was ready to take me back to Zhucheng.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but wonder, "Aren't we waiting here for my mother to come back to Zhucheng together?" ”
Dad didn't stop taking care of it when he heard this, but replied to me lightly: "Your mother still has to serve grandma for a long time, she said on the phone that we should go back first, and when she is done, she will go back to Zhucheng to find us." ”
I let out an "oh", my heart was still full of doubts, but I really couldn't ask, I always felt that something was wrong.
In this way, my father and I boarded the train back to my hometown, and before getting on the train, in order to bring the big black dog back to Zhucheng, my father specially took me to buy a big travel bag, and gave the conductor 200 yuan when I got on the train.
I thought that returning to Zhucheng would be a new journey for me, but I never expected that the nightmare of my life had only just begun from here...
As soon as we arrived at Zhucheng Railway Station, we found that our luggage could not be found, although there were no valuables in it, but after all, there were a lot of daily necessities, my father and I searched for a long time and did not find it, so we had no choice but to give up.
Fortunately, the small camphor box left by Grandpa Zhang is still there, and the things he left me are all in it.
At this time, the second uncle was already waiting for us at the platform, followed him out of the platform, I found that the second uncle was driving a brand new car this time, and I had already heard him talk on the phone about doing some business in recent years, opening a farm and making a lot of money, but I didn't expect the second uncle to change so much.
Along the way, the second uncle hummed along with the car music, bragging to his father about how much money he had made in the past few years, how much the family had changed, and his tone was full of pride.
But the father who was sitting in the co-pilot didn't answer much, but turned his head to look out of the car window, as if he had something on his mind.
Seeing that my father didn't react, the second uncle began to say to me in the back row: "Eldest nephew, you can go to school with peace of mind when you come back this time, your uncle has arranged a school for you, and your sister is also in that school, she can take care of you." His Shandongfang dialect was too heavy, and it took me three times to barely understand, and I quickly nodded to thank him.
In this way, we returned to Shilipu Village in Zhucheng, this village is also where my father grew up, and compared with my return two years ago, the only thing that makes me feel very lost is that my grandfather, who loves me the most, is no longer there, and my mother doesn't know when she will come back, alas.
We just arrived at the second uncle's house, and found that this place seems to be different from the previous place, it turned out that the second uncle had moved, moved to a large farm, looking at everything around, I asked the second uncle curiously: "Uncle, is this your home?" ”
When my uncle heard this, he turned around and nodded smugly at me, and replied, "Yes, you and your father will live with me in the future, how spacious I am now, unlike a few years ago, when you came back, you didn't have a place to live!" ”
Dad didn't say anything when he heard this, but took out the luggage from the trunk, patted the second uncle on the shoulder, and whispered to him: "Second brother, come with me, I'll tell you something!" ”
Then he said to me and asked him to wait for him in the courtyard, and then took the second uncle to the side, although they were not very far away, but I couldn't hear the words at all, I saw my father whispering to the second uncle, the second uncle heard the bigger his mouth opened, his face showed an expression of disbelief, and from time to time he looked back at me, as if there was an indescribable shock on his face.
When I saw the two of them like this, I couldn't help but want to go up and hear what they were saying, but just as I was about to step forward quietly, I heard the door of the house behind me suddenly open, and a sentence came from the house: "Little Crane is back."
I turned my head and saw that the person who was talking turned out to be the second aunt, who stepped forward as she spoke and helped me take out my luggage from the car.
I wanted to go up and listen to what my father and second uncle were talking about, but I was taken into the house by my second aunt.
After a closer look, the second uncle's house was indeed well decorated, and after a while, my father and second uncle came in.
After entering the house, the second uncle still smiled at me as usual, as if nothing had happened just now.
Later, I quietly asked the second uncle's father what he said to him, and he always prevaricated with a few random words, I think there must be something strange in this, but the second uncle's mouth is very strict, and he can't ask anything, so he has to give up.
That night, the third uncle's family also came, it turned out that the third uncle not only became a family, but also had a lovely daughter, but during the meal, I found that the second uncle's family and the third uncle's family did not talk much, and later I learned that they had an awkward quarrel at that time, and it was not as good as it seemed on the surface.
In this way, my father and I stayed at the second uncle's house for a few more days, until one night I was playing outside, and when I came back, I vaguely heard a quarrel coming from the second uncle's house.
I couldn't help but quietly stepped forward to hear what was going on in the second uncle's house, but as soon as I walked over, I heard the second aunt arguing there: "What's the matter with your eldest brother in our house every day, I told you that you are not happy, how can you do it like this?" Later, the second aunt also complained about many trivial things in life.
At first, the second uncle just sat in the room and didn't speak, but in the end, he was really impatient and scolded the second aunt.
I really couldn't listen to it anymore, so I turned around and went back to my room, and told my dad everything I heard, but my father's reaction was very flat, and he just said to me: "Got it!" And then there was no more.
