Hechun and Jingming

He Rong looked at Qu Jingming with the same indifferent expression, but she couldn't speak for a while, she was embarrassed by this explanation.After returning to the Fangcheng bus station, Qu Jingming squatted on the ground and vomited, then sat blankly on a step at the passenger exit, tucked his knees, rested his chin on his thighs, and stared blankly at the concrete floor in front of him.

He doesn't cry, this is what he said to himself.He also knew that it was difficult for He Rong. When He Rong said "Your mother, she...", he really wanted to answer "I know", but he opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound.The motion sickness and vomiting made him doubly frustrated. He was more overwhelmed than he imagined, and he couldn't get up when he sat down.

He Rong bought two catties of oranges from a small shop next to him, peeled the skin and handed over half of them, coaxing him: "It won't be so uncomfortable to eat something."

Qu Jingming took it hesitantly, peeled off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it, the sour taste hit people, immediately seduced the stomach to turmoil again, quickly rolled to the throat, he tilted his body, and vomited again.It's just that there is nothing in the stomach, and I retch.

He Rong gave him water again.

Pat him on the back, and said slowly in a low voice: "I hate children very much, and I have never taken care of children, but your mother asked me to take care of you for a few years. Your mother and I have been good friends since we were young. I have to help with this. .If I don’t do well in the future, you can tell me and I’ll try my best. Do you think this will work?”

Qu Jingming choked on the water and coughed violently. He was a small person, and when he coughed hard, he looked particularly dangerous. His shoulders shrugged, as if he was about to fall apart in a second.Be kind and busy and give him a smooth ride.After a while, Qu Jingming got better and looked up at her with tears in his eyes.

He Rong sighed and said, "Get up, let's go home."

Qu Jingming was held by her and stood up, and followed her back without saying a word.He Rong thought, fortunately, he didn't cry or make noise, and he was a little introverted, so he didn't trouble at least.

Since then, Qu Jingming has lived in He Rong's house.

Mrs. Chen is over half a century old, with a face of shrewd philistines, but she is the kind of person who doesn't turn her head. Although she doesn't like Xue Bingbing's goblin appearance, she doesn't have much speculation about her intentions. To play is to play.As a result, the person left the child after playing, and she thought that the little girl was really not a human being, and she was also not a human being when she helped outsiders hide her daughter from her.

"How old are you, how do you say that if someone raises a child, you will be raised by others? How much money is given to you, and you will conspire with others to cheat your mother? Do you have a conscience!"

He Rong ignored her at all and put water on Qu Jingming to take a bath.

Mrs. Chen stood at the door of the bathroom and scolded, but her vocabulary was pitifully lacking, and only negligible offensive words like "fox spirit" and "oil bottle" could be thrown at Xue Bingbing's mother and son.To Qu Jingming, this was really not exciting, Xue Bingbing scolded people much worse than her.

But her lung capacity is quite good, and she doesn't feel tired until eight or nine o'clock at night.In the end, she got tired of listening to Rong Rong, and spat back at her: "I will raise the child I adopted, and it's none of your business!"

Mrs. Chen finally got a response, she stared at He Rong, her eyes sparkled, she didn't know whether it was surprise or anger, she poked her finger in the air and slammed, "White-eyed wolf! You are a wolf-hearted slut just like your father! Die badly!"

He Rong still didn't raise his eyelids, grabbed Qu Jingming and pushed him upstairs into the room, and said coolly to his mother: "Then you better ask Tiandigong to let me die, you should die first, otherwise no one will be able to die." support you."

Mrs. Chen's face turned green and pale, and now she was really angry.She slams the door and walks away.

He Rong was a little worried that Qu Jingming would be frightened. After sending him to the room, he didn't leave. He rummaged through his schoolbag, took out all the clothes in it and hung it up. Finally, a comic book of calabash dolls was revealed underneath. She looked at it and had a flash of inspiration Shan turned around and asked Qu Jingming, "Shall I tell you a story before going to bed?"

Qu Jingming sat on the bed, staring at her with a pair of dark eyes, and nodded as if his reaction had been buffered for a while.She shook off the comic book, and asked Qu Jingming to climb to the side next to the wall to lie down. She lay on the edge of the bed, propped her back with a pillow, and began to tell stories.

She said that when she was a child, she used to live in her grandmother's house. Her grandmother's house was in the countryside. There was a banana tree in front of the door, and there was a big stone under the tree. In the era when there was no TV, the activity of the village after dark was to find a place to enjoy the cool air. To tell the truth, there is one of them under the banana tree in their house.

"Originally our house was very lively, but a strange thing happened for a while. The big rock under the banana tree was reserved for me and a few friends. One day, my friends found a big footprint on the stone, the footprint of an adult. At first, we didn't care, just wiped it off, but then every day, every day, every day...we got scared. There are a lot of adults there, but the few of us you look at me, I look at each other You all thought it was a very mysterious thing, and you wanted to tell the adults, but you thought it was our secret, so you were not willing to share it, so you made up your mind and finally only told my grandma. My grandma came to see it, and she cried at that time."

She was talking dryly, but Qu Jingming didn't respond at all, so she turned her head to look, and saw Qu Jingming listening intently, frowning as if lost in thought.At first, there was nothing to say, so he raised his face to look at He Rong, his eyes seemed to be asking "what's next".

He Rongle: "Aren't you afraid?"

Qu Jingming nodded, "I'm afraid."

He Rong: "Then you still listen?"

Qu Jingming: "You want to tell..."

He Rong: "..."

It turned out that he was being self-indulgent, and this child didn't need her to tell any bedtime stories at all.He Rong lived to be 28 years old, and had more or less contact with children. This is the first time he discovered that children are not fools who only cry and play. They can think, endure, and even accommodate the people around them.

He Rong paused: "Forget it, go to sleep. Do you want to turn off the lights?"

Qu Jingming lay half on his stomach, his right face sunk into the pillow, even his eyes were half buried, he nodded at He Rong, and then consciously pulled the quilt.He Rong really didn't understand children, and was immediately deceived by his cuteness, so happy to ignore him, set up the pillows and went out, without noticing that Qu Jingming's eyes clearly still had expectations for the following.

Grandma cried, and then what?

He thought about it half the night before he was so tired that he fell asleep.

Later, for a long time, Mrs. Chen's daily routine was to scold Xue Bingbing as a vixen, Qu Jingming, and Qu Jingming when cooking and eating, cursing her daughter and ex-husband to die, and complaining that her daughter has no man-this is The theme of playing and Rong's life with her since she came back from graduation, but now there is one more reason to complain.

"Being shameless and bringing oil bottles to others, you deserve to be unable to get married!"

He Rong was worried at first that the old lady's cursing would affect Qu Jingming's emotions, but seeing him indifferently and silently picking up the plate in front of him, he couldn't get in to comfort him, so he kept silent and let the old lady talk about her crosstalk.This situation lasted for half a month, and Mrs. Chen finally got annoyed.

As soon as she was at the dinner table that day, she changed the opening topic: "I passed by the second elementary school in the afternoon and saw your brother, but you didn't see it, your wicked brother..."

He Rong interrupted her: "Can't you keep your mouth clean for children?"

Mrs. Chen raised her eyebrows: "He is an evil person, let me tell you what's wrong? Other children are innocent, but he is not. You didn't see, he squashed his little classmates with his white fat , Whoa, whoa, I can’t even cry. You said this kid, he didn’t learn at a young age, he became a bully first... Tuo Youping went with me, you ask Tuo Youping, is he a villain?"

He Rong glanced at Qu Jingming: "Don't go out with your Granny Chen."

Qu Jingming lowered his head, very embarrassed, so he pretended to be deaf and dumb.Regarding the ins and outs of this younger brother He Rong, he already has a lot of experience, and it is rare to have the same opinion as Mrs. Chen, but it is difficult to say it out.

He has always been sensitive to unhealthy family relationships. He is not a big man, and his mind is quite complicated. Boss Chen mentioned his ex-husband during the past half a month of nagging, and he greeted his whole family by the way. Changing pattern acid.All of this was collected by Qu Jingming's ears, roughly filtered, leaving the main information.

He Rong's younger brother, He Chun, is 20 years younger than He Rong. It was when this younger brother was born that he stomped his feet cruelly and went through the divorce procedures with Mrs. Chen. Er straightened.Now Hechun is eight years old and has just entered the second grade of elementary school.Old lady Chen usually eats enough and has nothing to do. One of her biggest hobbies is to stroll to other people's schools to see what the children are doing again, preferably fighting in public.Whenever such a big scene happens, I have to come back and describe it with He Rong with great interest, expressing my sincere wishes for this child to grow up to be a good-for-nothing.

And according to what Qu Jingming saw with his own eyes today, that guy is indeed a bully. He is fat and strong. He doesn't have any technical content in fighting.

Right now, Mrs. Chen used to scold others behind her back for 5 minutes. As usual, she should devote some energy to finish the meal at this time. Unexpectedly, she found another way today. On Qu Jingming, pointing at him with chopsticks.

"You, you, you can't learn from this kind of person, or our whole family will be ashamed!"

It was the first time that he thought that he and the old lady were standing in the same camp, but Qu Jingming, who was caught off guard by being named: "..."

He Rong couldn't stand it anymore, she was willing to raise her eyes to look at her mother, and said very seriously: "Mom, let me tell you seriously, just once, I will accept Qu Jingming, and he will be no different from my son from now on. If you want to scold him and train him to beat him, you have to pass my test."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chen seemed to have heard a big joke. She dropped one of her chopsticks and put half a bowl of unfinished rice on it, covering her belly and laughing.Her usual unfriendly voice was even more sinister in this kind of smile, which was extremely uncomfortable to the ear.Qu Jingming was already used to her, but now he was a little scared, and subconsciously hid from He Rong.

He Rong noticed it, but didn't say anything, and gave him a piece of meat as a comfort.

Mrs. Chen finished laughing sarcastically, instead of continuing the stand-up comedy, she ate her bowl of rice sullenly, but she didn't clean up after the meal, picked up her small handbag with change and slammed the door out. The old door let out a scream of "bang - bang", Qu Jingming was very worried when he heard it, and was very worried about the life of the door.

Probably because Mrs. Chen mentioned school, He Rong suddenly remembered that Qu Jingming should also go to school.

So I mentioned this to my child the next day and asked him what class he was in.Qu Jingming used to go to school on and off, and she had attended all classes. She called some friends and came to the conclusion that this child should be able to enter the first grade directly in September.So in September, Qu Jingming was over six and a half years old, and he barely met the age limit. With some connections, he successfully entered the best elementary school in Fangcheng, which was the school of Bully Hechun.

He had nothing to do with Hechun, and he had no grievances. They were just in the same school, so he didn't take it to heart.Unexpectedly, not long after entering school, that brainless bully would come to the door by himself.
