Now, Jiaotong has reached the state of "a thousand miles of Jiangling return in one day". Wu Fangge and Xiaoyan boarded the plane in the provincial capital in the morning and arrived at Kunming Airport just after noon. In this way, if you rush, you can go to the Martyrs' Cemetery in the afternoon. However, when you enter Kunming City, Wu Fangge suddenly said to Xiaoyan: "Don't you go home and take a look?"
"Home?" Xiaoyan didn't react for a moment, and then woke up suddenly. Wu Fangge was referring to her stepmother's current home.
"I don't have much home here..." Xiaoyan was originally excited, but when Wu Fangge said this, he immediately became sad.
Wu Fangge said patiently: "Since you are here to see your mother, dad also needs to see it, and it's okay for others. Don't you have a younger brother?"
xiaoyan knew that Wu Fangge was referring to the son born to her father and stepmother, and said angrily: "I am the only father! And what younger brother has been favored since Xiao, and he always bullies me when he grows up."
Seeing that it was a little unreasonable, Wu Fangge changed the angle and said, "I know you had suffered a lot of grievances in that family before, but after all, you and that brother are related to blood, and blood is thicker than water. Moreover, I heard that their mother and son are not living a good life now. You are living a good life and are in college again. To put it, it's exaggerating, not returning home without returning home in glory, just like walking in a night out in a bright night."
Wu Fangge's words are just about the point. Generally speaking, people who have suffered and bullied think that one day they can be proud in front of others, whether they are tolerant or mean, there are no exceptions. So when it comes to this, Xiaoyan stopped talking, which was considered acquiescent.
So Wu Fangge checked in the hotel room of the agricultural supplies company in the center of the city. In the afternoon, he went shopping with Xiaoyan and bought some gifts at will. The next day, he took a long-distance bus to Xiaoyan's hometown Dongting City, which was equivalent to walking north again.
When I arrived at Dongting, I naturally settled down first, and then ate some food to find someone.
In fact, Xiaoyan's stepmother is really miserable now. Shortly after Xiaoyan's father died, her stepmother also got off duty and said it was a "last-ranking elimination system". When Xiaoyan's father was alive, he liked to take on everything at home. When he died, the family immediately lost its pillar. On the one hand, the stepmother was forced by life, and on the other hand, she was unwilling to be lonely, so she married another person who was said to have two shops. After marriage, she found out. The two shops had shrunk into two bus cars. They were just a dealer and life was tight. Forget it, others just took her over, but Xiaoyan was taken over by her stepmother, and she lived a unimaginable life. So Xiaoyan joined a group of bad boys to run away from home.
Although she had been away for two or three years, she was already a big girl when she ran away, so she still recognized her original residence. When the car passed by an old building, Xiaoyan pointed to Wu Fangge through the car window and said, "The fifth floor above is my father's unit's house. I bought it during the house reform. Later, the man lied to my stepmother to sell the house and invest it to his and go to the card table."
Wu Fangge chuckled and said nothing.
I arrived at an old Xiao District again, and it was just like that. The two got out of the car and looked at the familiar scenery. Xiaoyan was carrying her luggage bag and her head was raised high. She was really in a state of state. Before she got home, she met an old lady from the neighborhood committee. Xiaoyan called her Li Nainai and introduced to Wu Fangge: "Li Nainai used to see her hungry and often took her home for dinner."
It happened to be Saturday. Along the way, my old neighbors met a lot. When they saw Xiaoyan dressed in bright clothes, they all greeted him with a smile. However, one of them mistakenly regarded Wu Fangge as her husband. So Xiaoyan smiled and explained over and over again: "It's my adoptive father, my biological mother's comrade-in-arms."
So the next sentence of the neighbors will say, "Oh, so young."
Indeed, with Wu Fangge's current age, it is indeed a bit mysterious to have a 20-year-old daughter.
After finally getting quieter, Wu Fangge smiled and said, "The neighbors are all good to you."
xiaoyan said: "Not that. When I was scrambling outside, I also talked a lot of people about me."
Wu Fangge said: "Since you are returning home in glory, don't pay much attention to it. If you have time, let's set up two tables to enjoy the scenery."
While speaking, Xiaoyan pointed to the door on the left and said, "This is the room." As he raised his hand and knocked on the door, a middle-aged man with a beard in a vest ran upstairs, and raised his head and smiled and shouted, "Xiaoyan, are you back? I'm playing cards..."
Wu Fangge guessed that the man was Xiaoyan's second husband. Although Wu Fangge did not show up when he was going through the adoption procedures, he had seen photos of the review materials, so he reached out and said, "Hello, Wu Fangge, Xiaoyan's adoptive father."
The man quickly stretched out his hands and shook hands with Wu Fangge. At this time, the door also opened. It turned out that Xiaoyan's stepmother was at home. At this moment, he probably heard the movement outside and opened the door.
"Come in and do it for a while. The house is very 1. Don't laugh at me." The man said and asked them into the house.
Wu Fangge planned to go in and take a look, but Xiaoyan's legs seemed to be tied to the ground, and ignored the man at all, and said coldly to his stepmother: "Where is my brother?"
The cold sound made the whole atmosphere cold. The stepmother was stunned at first, and then said: "He, he works in the legendary video game city outside the Xiao District..."
Before she could finish her words, xiaoyan pulled Wu Fangge downstairs and said, "Let's go, let's take a look."
Wu Fangge fully understood xiaoyan's mood, so he smiled and said hello to the couple, and went downstairs with xiaoyan.
The man was still shouting from behind, "I won't sit for a while." But as Wu Fangge and Xiaoyan walked away, they spat behind their backs and said, "I'm a pussy, what's the matter? I'm still a foster father. I think it's almost the same!" As he said that, he turned around and said to his wife, "Did you think so?"
xiaoyan's stepmother ignored him and turned around and entered the room.
Wu Fangge and Xiaoyan walked out of Xiao District again. As they walked, Xiaoyan suddenly asked, "Dad, do you think my stepmother is beautiful?" After waiting for a second or two, Wu Fangge answered, he continued, "I don't think much, I'm just a yellow-faced woman. I really don't know why my dad got into her back then!"
Wu Fangge said: "It's not so good now, but I've seen it once or twice back then. It was your brother still holding it in his arms, and it was quite beautiful."
xiaoyan pretended to be angry and said, "You, I have only seen you once or twice. Why did you remember that my stepmother was beautiful and forgot me? I remember that I came to you that year, but I couldn't recognize you even when you saw it."
Wu Fangge smiled and gestured, saying, "Oh my God, you were so tall when I saw you. Later, you grew up. How can I recognize a girl who changes so much as a girl?"
xiaoyan smiled sweetly, then lowered his voice and held Wu Fangge's arm and said, "Dad, I grew up more than age."
Wu Fangge quickly chou back and said, "Okay, okay, come again, I think you are used to it."
xiaoyan giggled.
When I arrived at the Legend Video Game City, the venue was not yet Xiaoxiao. Xiaoyan and Wu Fangge walked in and came to the front desk. Xiaoyan asked the girl who sold coins: "Does Xiaozhuang work here with you?"
The girl raised her head and shouted in surprise: "xiaoyan! You are back." Then she saw Wu Fangge again and said: "This is..."
When Wu Fangge saw that his tone was about to go wrong again, he quickly said, "I am her adoptive father, her adoptive father."
The girl smiled and said to Xiaoyan: "Your...
Wu Fangge said again: "Entertainment Father."
The girl said, "Your adoptive father is so handsome."
This girl's name is Xiaoyu, and she and Xiaoyan were classmates before.
It is easy to do acquaintances, and Xiaoyu cannot do without the front desk, but he immediately pointed the direction for them. It was a coincidence that Xiaoyu Village - a 14 or 15-year-old boy, who was walking over with a mop.
There is no need to describe the scene of the meeting between the siblings. He helped Xiaozhuang ask for leave and made an appointment with Xiaoyu to "sit down when you have time". Xiaoyan and Wu Fangge took Xiaozhuang to find a nearby cafe. Wu Fangge saw that they hadn't seen each other for several years, so he must have something to say, so he used the excuse to go out for a walk, leaving only the siblings and found another place to stroll around.
The boy of fourteen or fifteen years old is in the middle of the night, and Xiaozhuang may be a little malnourished, so he looks very thin. Although Xiaoyan always thinks that he has no feelings for this half-brother, he still feels a little distressed when he sees Xiaozhuang like this, so he asks: "Why are you working outside and not going to school?"
Xiaozhuang lowered his head and said, "My grades are not good. Uncle Sun (stepfather) said that he didn't have money to give me this unpromising tuition fee, so he wouldn't go to school."
xiaoyan frowned and said, "Your mother doesn't care, she loves you so much."
Xiaozhuang said: "You don't know. Uncle Sun was drunk and she was beaten by herself. How could she care about me..." After waiting for a while, he said: "Sister, I'm sorry for you."
xiaoyan said, “Where did you come from?”
xiaozhuang said: "When my dad was there, I always bullied you, and then went to my mom to complain. Now I understand, stepfather and stepmother are really unreliable, but fortunately my mom didn't have another child."
xiaoyan said: "If you want to be fair and make a fuss, you finally understand. But you are still good, not learning bad things, unlike me, if I hadn't met my mother's comrades, I would have almost become a female hooligan."
Xiaozhuang's head lowered even lower, and after a while, he said, "I came out of the police station last week. People said I was old and not old enough. Now this job was found by Li Nainai's helper."
xiaoyan first blamed him, "What's wrong with you?" Then he felt his tone was a little heavy, so he slowed down and said, "It's okay, just change it, but I think I still have to go to school. After meeting my current adoptive father, I went back to school, but now I'm at the University of Science and Technology."
Xiaozhuang raised his head, and said with envy in his eyes, "You are so lucky. I'm afraid I'm not as good as you, so I'll work hard and stop doing things that are not stupid."
xiaoyan didn't dare to make any decision at this time. After all, she is not her own food, accommodation and use. Although she has gone to a university, she has not yet been independent. After thinking for a long time, she said, "I think of a way. At least you have to finish high school."
That night, Wu Fangge opened another room and asked Xiaozhuang to stay in the hotel with them. Xiaoyan wanted to talk to him about his younger brother several times, but he couldn't speak.
