Le’s father felt that he was hallucinating. No, he felt that he must have been too worried about Little Cotton Jacket last night and was afraid that she would be unsafe at school and on the way back, so he didn’t sleep well all night, so that he followed her in the middle of the day. Like a dream.
In a daze, I felt my arms being shaken violently. I subconsciously looked at the child sitting on my right, my mind still in a mess.
"Lele, what did you just say?"
"Dad, I said, find me a new mother. I want a new mother." Le Yun Blinking her clear eyes, she pretended to be obedient and said, "Dad, good dad, can you please do it?"
"Lele, my father is in his forties. He is old and disabled. He cannot I can’t help you find a new mother who is really good to you.”
Le’s father finally understood that it was not an illusion. His little cotton-padded jacket really wanted to persuade him to find a partner. The child had mentioned it before. However, he only thought that she was young and ignorant. Maybe Lele really wanted a mother. No matter how good her father was, he could not give her the love that her mother gave her.
"Dad, what if someone is willing?" Le Yun hugged her father's arm and showed a pure and innocent smile.
"If someone doesn't dislike your father and is really good to you, I have nothing to say. Unfortunately, this is impossible. Lele, you'd better not want a new mother. Dad is Disabled people, our family is completely clean, no one wants to come here and suffer."
Le's father couldn't bear to let his daughter down, and he had to dampen her enthusiasm. If he hadn't been lame, maybe. You can still find a second-married man to make do with it. Such a disabled person cannot lift his hands or shoulders, nor can he do heavy work in the fields. Which woman is willing to be a stepmother is equivalent to shouldering the burden of supporting the family and providing for their father and daughter. When a cow and a horse act like horses, tell me, which woman would be so stupid?
"Dad, when Aunt Feng brought me back today, I met Zhang Jing's mother, Aunt Wu, in the village. She said that Aunt Feng was with me. It’s like a family.”
Lele’s father’s face changed, “Lele, don’t listen to other people’s nonsense. Some people in the village are just talkative and always like to say nasty things. Just treat them like them. You're farting."
"Well, most of the time I think they are farting, but today I still listen to it. In fact, if Aunt Feng becomes my new mother, I would be really happy. Aunt Feng always takes care of us, even if we are neighbors.”
Lele’s father understood what the child meant and blushed, “Lele, don’t think wrongly, your Aunt Feng has a good heart.” , always take care of us, don’t imitate other people’s misconceptions and misunderstand her good intentions. It’s not that your Aunt Feng can’t find the right person, but she cares about Grandma Zhou, so she doesn’t agree.”
< p>"Dad, please be honest, if Aunt Feng doesn't hate being my new mother, are you willing to make do with Aunt Feng?"Who was Le Yun who used to fight and curse in the street? No, from a young age to a brat, he is very knowledgeable about people and the world, and he is also unambiguous when it comes to being his father's matchmaker. Such a person is known as a thick-skinned person.
By a child, a girl under eighteen years old talked about her life, even though Le's father had lived for forty years, he was blushing with shame.
Looking at her father's behavior, Le Yun knew it well. People say that love grows over time. Dad and Aunt Feng have known each other since childhood. They have been neighbors for so many years. Even if they were not in love before, they probably have a good impression now.
My father is thin-skinned, so Leyun stopped chasing him and continued to eat, because she was thinking that her father might have a happy life, and she ate very deliciously. Even though my dad forced me to drink "realgar wine", I didn't find the taste unpleasant.
The child no longer mentioned that problem, and Le's father was relieved. After clearing the table after the meal, the father and daughter tidied up the kitchen, and saw his caring little cotton-padded jacket taking out a suitcase from her trolley box. She held the bag of things in her arms and wandered about to go out. She hurriedly stopped her, "Lele, where are you going?"
"Dad, I'm going to see Grandma Zhou and Aunt Feng. You don't have to worry about me. Come back." I'm going to plant potato vines in the back garden." Le Yun carried the tomatoes, made a face at her father, and ran out.
"This" little bastard
Seeing the child jumping out of the house, Le's father's face was bloodshot and he was dumbfounded. He raised his head at noon and immediately went to check whether the little cotton-padded jacket was pregnant. I wish she could sell her dad
At the beginning of May, the second batch of sweet potato seedlings has grown and can be transplanted. It rained a few days ago and stopped yesterday afternoon. The ground is drier today. , most people are rushing to cut vines and plant sweet potato vines.
Brother Zhou, his wife Zhou Qiufeng and Zhou Qiufeng also went to the fields, and even the children went to help. Grandma Zhou was cutting sweet potato vines at home. She heard someone calling her, and after looking for it, she saw the children of the Le family. Enter home.
The Zhou family has two houses. The upper house is still an old-fashioned brick and wood structure, and the lower house is a two-story small foreign-style building built later. A small patio is formed between the upper and lower houses, and the door faces north and south. Open, the style is the courtyard house in the south.
"Lele, did you do well in the exam? Are you nervous?" Seeing the smiling little girl, Grandma Zhou put down the scissors and the sweet potato vine in her hand, dragged the chair to talk to the child.
“I’m not nervous, I feel like I did well on the exam.” Le Yun slid to sit down next to Grandma Zhou, took out a juicy tomato and handed it to the old man, “Grandma Zhou, I want to talk to you about something important. Are you willing to listen to serious matters?"
"Hey, if you want to talk to me about big things, just bribe me with a tomato." Grandma Zhou smiled with wrinkles all over her face, but she was not polite. He took it, wiped it with his clothes and started to bite it. After taking one bite, he said, "It's delicious. It tastes the same as last time."
Le Yun was a little dizzy. What did this mean? I thought about it and asked.
"Last time, your dad came back from the county town and said that you bought him very expensive tomatoes. He gave two to Qiufeng, and Qiufeng gave one to me. I ate it and thought it was very delicious. The flavor today is the same as last time. I bought it at the same place.”
Grandma Zhou’s explanation made Le Yun want to facepalm. Last time, her father brought back three fruits. There are her teeth marks on each one. Dad actuallyHe was able to give it away without blushing or out of breath, which shows how awesome my dad is.
As a result, she was extremely excited. It seemed that there was something going on between Aunt Feng and her father.
Strike while the iron is hot, Le Yun immediately got involved with Zhou. Next to grandma, they discussed in a low voice, "Grandma Zhou, the serious business I am talking about is my dad's business. This is what it is. I really want a new mother, but my dad is thin-skinned. There are some things he will definitely not be able to say. , I will come to you."
"You want me to help your father be a matchmaker?" Grandma Zhou understood immediately. The eyes behind her reading glasses were so wide that Lele was already worried about her father's marriage. Is this child really only fourteen years old?
