Hi, it's Mr. Lin!

The unintentional collision caused the girl to fall very embarrassingly. Passers-by were surprised by her gaffe and forgot to step forward to help her up.Embarrassment and embarrassment made her blush, she hurriedly got up from the ground and fled with her face half covered.

"Aren't you out shopping?"

Chi Shu's eyes fell on the bento bag carried by his wife. The dark blue tarpaulin was printed with a cute Winnie the Pooh pattern.

Zhang Rongrong rubbed her son's hairy head lovingly, with a little bit of coquettishness in her voice.

"No way, say one by one that he wants to have dinner with Dad."

After finishing speaking, Chi Yi showed a helpless expression, and Chi Yi, who was hugging Chi Shu's neck tightly, nodded hurriedly, saying what his mother said.

"Let's go, you haven't been here for a long time, I'm afraid you forgot which floor you are on."

The four dishes and one soup are home-cooked. The taste and appearance may not be as delicious and beautiful as those in restaurants, but the heart is the most important.

The girl's mother was already standing at the door, looking forward to her daughter's return home. The not tall girl seemed even shorter because she was too thin.After the familiar figure appeared in the distance, there was a gleam of light in her eyes.

"Mom, why are you standing at the door?"

Seeing her mother coming out, the girl trotted anxiously. The worry on her face and the slight blame in her tone made the woman, who is a mother, blame herself a little.

"Seeing that you didn't come back, I was a little worried, so I wanted to come out and have a look, but I saw you as soon as I arrived at the door."

Patting her daughter's hand, the girl's mother bumped into the house with her daughter's support.In the old courtyard, a few chickens were looking for food everywhere. Some broken chicken coops were placed in the corner near the toilet on the west side, and there was an old well with a large stone slab there.

Although life is a bit tight, the girl's mother still tries her best to make her growing daughter eat meat every day.Two dishes for two people, a bowl of vegetable soup with little water in clear soup, this is a simple meal.

"Mom, this is for you, this is from the teacher."

The girl handed the two lollipops that Chi Shu had given her to her mother. Life was already very bitter, and she hoped that these candies would bring her some short-lived but sweet happiness.

After eating, the girl took the initiative to take on the task of washing the pots and dishes every day, while her mother sat under the eaves with the handicrafts brought back by others.It costs five cents for each tied pose. Because her eyes are not very good, she can only do some during the day when the light is good.Even if she is in such a hurry, she only earns about 70 to [-] yuan a day, which will be halved in rainy days. The meager income can barely support the family's expenses.

"Mom, isn't the well at home good? Why isn't it used?"

The girl who tidied up the kitchen quickly sat down to help, and her eyes fell on the well in the corner again.Because of being abandoned, their family can only go to the well tens of meters away to fetch water every day. Although it is not particularly tiring, it takes many trips to fill the water tank in the kitchen that is half the height of a person.

"The dog we raised before fell into it and drowned. I was worried that something would go wrong, so I asked someone to fill it in."

The girl's mother said frankly that her daughter has asked herself this question many times.

"Oh."

The girl thought about it, and the little black dog that the family had raised did suddenly disappear three years ago, and she was still sad for a long time because of it.That puppy was picked up by the side of the road one day when I was in junior high school. I couldn't bear to take it home because I saw it was so thin and pitiful.She still remembers her father's expression when he saw the puppy, his eyes were bright and his mouth was drooling and he muttered to himself: "When it grows up, it will be delicious to serve with wine."

The puppy was scared by his father's greedy eyes and shivered in his arms. If he hadn't watched closely, he might have become food in his father's belly.

Although the girl felt a little pity, but the matter was a foregone conclusion and she could only accept it.In the blink of an eye, it was time to go to the photo studio. After the mother and daughter said goodbye to each other, the aunt next door just went out to play mahjong.

"Mother Wei'er, are you feeling better?"

Aunt Liu, who is almost 70 years old, looks like a person in her 50s and 5000s. She looks like Maitreya Buddha in a Buddhist temple happily all day long.The son and daughter are extremely filial, and the pension money given to her is more than [-] every month.But she is restless, every day besides tending the small vegetable field that has been opened in the open space, she goes to the chess and card room to play cards and chat with her old sisters every day.

"Aunt Liu, go out and play cards! Thank you for your concern, I feel much better."

The girl's mother responded enthusiastically, Aunt Liu remembered something, and turned around when she was about to leave.

"Has your man sent you any money for so many years?"

The girl's mother's expression darkened, she shook her head and said, "It's not that you don't know him. If you have some money, you either spend it on drinks or sit at the card table. How can you think of us, mother and daughter?"

Seeing this, Aunt Liu also felt sorry for her. If it weren't for her daughter Liu Weiwei, she would have died long ago.

"Don't be sad. Fortunately, Weiwei is considerate and filial. When she is older and can earn money, the situation will definitely get better."

After barely consoling her, Aunt Liu left with a sigh.The girl's mother watched her leave, her sad expression subsided in an instant.In fact, she is very grateful to Aunt Liu for giving her a lot of care during her tormented years, including helping the mother and daughter in daily life during the years when the child's father was away, and sending some of her own plants from time to time. vegetables or meat.Every time I use the reason that I can't finish eating and wasting, I take care of my feelings.

After sitting down again, she was sad for a while, Aunt Liu was so kind to her, but she couldn't reciprocate half of it, the feeling of guilt made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Ugh……"

With a long sigh, he took a look at the old well, lowered his head and resumed his work.

In the following days, Liu Weiwei still came early and left late as usual, and her progress was also leaps and bounds, even compared with the students who came two or three months earlier than her.

"Today we are going to collect pictures. When I come back, I will compare the photos you took with other teachers. The top three will have different rewards. I hope you will do your best to submit the most satisfactory works."

On the bus, Chi Shu wore a headset and explained the tasks to all the students who came out today. The large body was driving on the not very spacious mountain road.

After more than an hour, the group arrived at today's destination.A river that is not wide meanders gently from the mountain canyon. The river bed is composed of large or smooth or jagged stones, and the clear river water forms small eddies in the narrow places.Shrubs are growing on the mountain walls on both sides, and yellow and white wild flowers are scattered here and there.Today's weather is also very good, the blue sky is like white clouds like cotton, which is an excellent opportunity to practice photography.

"Don't act alone. Find the scenery you are satisfied with and take a picture. After three hours, no matter what the result is, you have to come back here to call the roll."

After ordering to pay attention to safety matters, everyone went in pairs to find the target, and Chi Shu also walked upstream along the river with his camera.All of a sudden, distant or near clicks echoed in the valley.

When the daughter goes out, the mother will naturally worry.Today is also her daughter's birthday. Liu Weiwei's mother calculated the time when her daughter would return home, and struggled to catch an old hen that the family had raised for two years.Going out to collect wind is hard work, and I need to make up for my daughter.

When I am in a good mood, my movements are naturally quicker, humming a little song in my nose, boiling water, catching chicken, bleeding, blanching chicken feathers, chopping pieces, and preparing all the ingredients in less than an hour.

"Mother Wei'er, why are you so happy today?"

On the way to the commissary, people from the same village greeted her proactively.

"Today is Wei Wei's birthday, of course I'm happy."

The corner of the woman's mouth has never been lowered, and her voice is much louder than when she was sick.I bought two bottles of fruit juice and some cakes and snacks. Usually, my daughter feels sorry for the difficulties at home, and never asks for these. As a mother, I know that there is no girl who doesn’t like these snacks. My daughter’s birthday is even like this. If you can't meet the requirements, you are really unqualified as a mother.

Liu Weiwei is still very satisfied with her performance today. She sang and danced on the way back. Although she didn't expect to be rewarded, she at least broke through herself.

"mom!"

Liu Weiwei emotionally gave her mother a big hug, and the woman caressed her daughter's face with loving eyes.

"What day is it today? Why is it so rich!"

Liu Weiwei, who entered the room, was surprised to see the dishes on the table, and the woman said lovingly, "Why did you forget your own birthday?"

"Mom, you are so kind!"

Liu Weiwei hugged her mother again and jumped up and down again. Braised chicken nuggets, twice-cooked pork, garlic greens, stir-fried shredded potatoes, and a bowl of fermented glutinous rice ball soup are today's dinner. It is a year for the mother and daughter who are used to simple meals A rare abundance.

"Mom, happy birthday!"

Liu Weiwei raised her drink and wanted to have a drink with her mother, and the woman responded with a smile.In the past few years, she would say this to herself on her daughter's birthday every year, and all the pain and suffering before were comforted.

"Happy birthday Vivi."

The stars are twinkling, and the shadows in the yard must be scary to the timid. The noisy hens have already fallen asleep, and occasionally a few insects fly out from the corner, and the joy in the house makes Lao Jing even more excited. lonely.

After three days of evaluation, the photos taken by Liu Weiwei ranked No.3.The hands holding the red three hundred yuan trembled a little. This was the first real income.Of course, the rewards for the three people are different in addition to the amount of the bonus, and each of them also has a big gift bag of nuts to encourage them.

"I hope that you can continue to innovate, improve and break through yourself in your work and study in the future. Even if you don't get together in the future, you will not relax and shoot better works."

During this afternoon, Liu Weiwei hoped that the time would pass faster, and she really wanted to share this joy with her mother.

"Did you go back so early today?"

Chi Shu was a little surprised, and Liu Weiwei waved goodbye to him with a smile.

"I'm going to surprise my mom!"

With the pretty figure gone, Chi Shu thought to himself that he finally had time to spend with his family.

"Mom! Are you and Dad healthy?"

On the way back, take the opportunity to call the old people on both sides.

"mom!"

Liu Weiwei almost jumped into the house, her high voice startled the woman who was working.Looking up, she smiled and blamed: "You girl, can't you keep your focus? You are already a big girl, and you are still so frizzy."

Seeing the three hundred yuan delivered to her eyes, the woman was a little surprised.

"The photo I took won No. 3, which was rewarded by the teacher. There is also this box of nuts. Eat some when you are free, it is good for your health."

Pride was evident on her youthful face, and the woman's slightly hunched back couldn't help straightening up at this moment, her daughter was really amazing.

"You take this money as pocket money."

Liu Weiwei forced it into her mother's hand, "It's been hard for you to raise your daughter, so this little money should be my little reward for you."

Without waiting for her mother to continue to say anything, she ran to the side and unwrapped the nut gift box and peeled it.For her daughter's sensibility, a woman can see it in her eyes and feel pain in her heart. If she had chosen a stable and reliable man, her daughter would now be learning knowledge in a classroom with bright and clean windows, and she would have a better and brighter future.
