growing up porcelain doll

Liu Xiyue and Gong You never took the initiative to ask Gong Qing to call them mom and dad. They believed that everything has a process, and people's hearts are fleshy. He knows whether you treat him well or not.Rather than let him please him reluctantly, it is better to be influenced by his true feelings. One day, he will accept his new parents from the heart.

And it turns out that is the case.

Gong Qing's independence and sensibility in the orphanage made them feel particularly distressed.Whenever the meal is over, Gong Qing will take the initiative to put away the dishes and then go to wash them. They just use reasons such as "the dishes are too heavy", "the sink is too high", "when you grow up, come and help us wash the dishes". To reduce his psychological burden, but not completely stop him from working.Wipe the table and sweep the floor, and chat with him about what he did at home today, what he has learned, or talk about things that everyone is interested in, so that he will not feel that he lives for nothing in other people's homes, and can cultivate parents and children relationship, to increase his sense of belonging in this new home.

When he comes to a new place, he must be familiar with the new environment.After dinner, the whole family will go to a nearby small park or go shopping in a shopping mall and supermarket. Gong You and Liu Xiyue will hold his hand and introduce him to the things around him, and tell him interesting things and interesting stories. When they have time on weekends, they will take him out for picnics and outings to feel the wonder and beauty of nature. They give him all tolerance and love within their ability.

These are all the warmth that Gong Qing has never experienced before. The changes in the life around him, the broadening of his horizons and the blending of emotions seem to soothe his restless heart.He sensed all the changes around him, and gradually put away the defenses in his heart that he hadn't even noticed, and began to actively share his affairs and the world in his eyes with Gong You and Liu Xiyue. In communication and communication, they were more like family.

One night more than a month later, when Gong Qing opened the door for them, he saw that Gong You entered the house behind Liu Xiyue's back. He keenly felt that something was wrong with Liu Xiyue.Sure enough, when Liu Xiyue was sitting on the sofa, Gong Qing saw that Liu Xiyue's left ankle was swollen and high.He suddenly felt very distressed, and he stood there looking at it for a long time.

If my mother is still here, she should love me so much, right?She will buy me beautiful clothes, cook delicious meals for me, tell me bedtime stories, make me happy, and give me the warmth of my home, right?But this person is obviously not my mother, she is still willing to take care of me like a mother, give me all her love, so that I don't have to do everything by myself, and she is willing to be my reliance.She is obviously my mother!

Xiao Gongqing squatted down and gently stroked Liu Xiyue's ankle, and asked with red eyes: "Mom, are you in pain?" His tears dripped on the floor tiles in front of him, making a slight "click".

Liu Xiyue was stunned, and asked in disbelief, "Xiaoqing, what did you call me just now?"

"mom!"

After the mother finished speaking, before Liu Xiyue and Gong You could react, Gong Qing hugged Liu Xiyue's other leg and began to cry, kneeling on the ground like a child who had lost her way for a long time and suddenly found her home. People are distressed.

Liu Xiyue couldn't care about the pain in her ankle anymore, she quickly sat up and stretched out her arms to hug the crying baby in front of her, and comforted her with a crying voice: "Baby don't cry, baby don't cry, mom is here, mom It doesn't hurt at all, it's okay, don't cry, don't cry!"

Gong You on the side looked at the crying mother and son in front of him, and was very moved. He understood Liu Xiyue's current mood very well, because he was also the same at the moment, like a dry well that had been dry for many years suddenly springing up sweet springs. , that is also full of happiness.He squatted down and hugged the mother and son with red eyes, and Gong Qing's subsequent "Dad" also made him burst into tears.

They are more and more like a family of three.Gong Qing will be held in the middle of the street by his parents like an ordinary child. When he is interested, he will take his parents to jump and run for a few steps; He rides on a merry-go-round; he will take the initiative to snuggle up to his parents while watching TV at home;

Gong Qing's personality became more and more cheerful, while Gong You and Liu Xiyue smiled more on their faces, and they became each other's concern in the long river of time.

It was the New Year in a blink of an eye, and since Gong Qing came to this new home, she has not seen other members of this big family.Liu Xiyue told him that he was going to his grandma's house this year, he would meet some brothers and sisters, and he could play with them. There was also a cousin who was as good-looking as him, and asked him if he was happy.

In fact, Gong Qing was very nervous, not because he was timid to accept his new life, but because he was afraid that everyone would dislike him and embarrass his parents.Liu Xiyue seemed to see his careful thoughts, pinched his face, and said with a smile: "You are so cute and well-behaved, everyone will like you!" Her words were like a reassurance, easily calming Gong Qing's uneasiness heart of.

When I came to grandma's house, as soon as I entered the door, I heard several uncles and uncles boast happily: "Hey, which beautiful doll is this? It looks so good-looking!" Liu Xiyue took Gong Qing's little hand and waved it in front of everyone. After shaking, he smiled and said: "My family!" Then he introduced to Gong Qing one by one that this is my cousin, that is my cousin, that is the son of your cousin's family, that is your eldest cousin, and that is your cousin's family. Your daughter is your eldest cousin... Gong Qing wrote down and greeted each of them, and it was the first time she knew that there were so many relatives.

After entering the back room, I met my grandparents again. They were quite satisfied with this little grandson. They not only gave a big red envelope, but also praised him in various ways, which made Gong Qing feel a little embarrassed.Although the enthusiasm of his family made him a little uncomfortable for a while, he still liked such a lively atmosphere, which was a family warmth that he had never experienced since he was a child.

While watching TV, a loud voice of "Grandpa, grandma, do you miss me!" came from the yard. Just as Gong Qing was about to turn her head to look, she saw a black figure rushing towards the old man on the sofa, hugging the two elders and the other. They kissed each other, and then they got up cheerfully from their bodies with their grandpa smiling and patting their buttocks.Before he could see the person's face clearly, another little girl who was shorter than him ran up to his grandpa and grandma, twisted her buttocks and said, "Hug, grandpa and grandma!" The little granddaughter was hugged on her lap, and everyone was amused and laughed.

"Auntie, is this my little brother?" The monkey-like boy pointed at him and asked Liu Xiyue.

Liu Xiyue nodded and said, "Yes, do you like it?"

The boy stared at him for a while, then smiled and said, "I like it. He looks so good-looking, like a porcelain doll. He's also obedient."

Gong Qing also looked at this tall and thin boy. He had heard Liu Xiyue say that his eyebrows and eyes looked a bit like her little nephew, so he probably must be that little cousin.He carefully looked at the eyebrows and eyes of his little cousin, and felt that they were prettier than his own.He didn't know what it meant when others praised him for being good-looking, but he felt that if he was good-looking, then the little cousin in front of him should be even more beautiful.

"You're pretty too." Gong Qing said seriously.

The boy was happy, and asked again: "Then do you like me?"

Gong Qing nodded and said, "I like it!"

Everyone in the room was amused by the two children, watching them was more interesting than watching sketches.

The little girl on the grandfather's lap suddenly yelled: "Beautiful brother!"

When her voice fell, the boy patted her on the head unceremoniously, and said speechlessly, "It's a beautiful brother! You are as tall as a radish and want to be a sister, in your next life!"

The six-year-old girl obviously still doesn't understand what the next life is and why it is the next life, she just nodded ignorantly and said hello, let's go to the next life.

After everyone had lunch, some played cards, some went shopping, Cheng Yu took his beautiful younger brother whom he had just met to go out to play.

"Why don't you ask my name?" Cheng Yu asked.

Gong Qing smiled and replied, "You are cousin Cheng Yu, and the one following you today is cousin Cheng Yue."

Cheng Yu asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

"Mom said that I have the most beautiful cousin named Cheng Yu, and he has a younger sister named Cheng Yue. Among the people I saw today, you are the prettiest, so you are cousin Cheng Yu."

Cheng Yu was very happy to hear that, and continued: "Did Auntie say anything else?"

Gong Qing thought for a while and then said: "Well... Mom said that brother Cheng Yu is very smart, and that I can often play with him."

This kind of praise gave a sense of superiority from the mouth of a child younger than him, and Cheng Yu was very pleased with it.

In fact, what Gong Qing said was the truth, but only half of what he said, Liu Xiyue's original words were "Your cousin Cheng Yu is smart and has a lot of tricks, so be careful when playing with him."

Liu Xiyue's evaluation of her little nephew is very correct, and it is very necessary to remind her son.After all, as his own sister, Cheng Yue was always "poisoned" by Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu grew up in the city now, but his temperament is as wild as the children in the village. Every time he goes back to his hometown, he takes the children in the village to touch fish and catch shrimps in the ponds where other people are farming, and go to other people's orchards to pick other people's meat. Ripe fruit, when you go to play on the ridge of the field, you can step down a farmer, and when you go to play hide-and-seek in the woods, you forget about your sister, so that my sister is bitten by mosquitoes in summer...

Although these are all small farces of children, they are harmless, but they are enough to make people upset for a while. If other children are like this, they will probably be beaten up by adults who have destroyed things. If you don't get beaten, you have to be scolded to vent your anger.But after the bad things are done, Cheng Yu has never been beaten or scolded. The reason is very simple, because he is smart and quick-witted.

——"Uncle Li, I touched a few small fish in the pond just now. I didn't know that your family raised them specially. I'm sorry, can I compensate you?"

"Hahaha, no need, these are small fish fry. If you want to eat fish, uncle will send you some when the fish grow up."

"Thank you uncle!"

"No thanks, no thanks, this kid is really good!"

——"Grandpa Zhang, I went to your orchard just now, and saw that the green apples were so beautiful, so I couldn't resist picking a few to try. I didn't tell you, I'm sorry."

"Hahaha, you are quite a good doll. You came here to apologize for stealing the fruit. Just eat it. A few fruits are worthless. When the fruits are ripe, I will leave some big and red ones for you You come and eat."

"Thank you grandpa"

"You're welcome, you're welcome!"

——"Aunt Wang, I almost fell when I went out to play too fast just now, and then I stepped on your field a few times without stopping the car. The dealer was trampled by me, I'm sorry!"

"Oh, it's all right, it can grow back if you step on it crookedly, you have to be careful when playing on the field ridge, there are small stones, it's not good if you bump it and hurt it, look at this handsome face .”

"Thank you, Auntie!"

"It's okay, no thanks."

As for the younger sister... There is no need to apologize for someone who can be coaxed by a candy, anyway, she will always follow behind him.

In this way, the smart, cute and innocent Cheng Yu can turn the three-foot-high flames that others are flying into a gurgling stream, not only has no temper to scold him, but even wants to praise him before giving him something.

Gong Qing looked at Cheng Yu with her big watery eyes blinking, while Cheng Yu felt a little itchy at his sight, always wanting to reach out and touch the porcelain doll's face.

He pinched Gong Qing's face and asked, "Have you ever been to a pond?"

Gong Qing lived in Jiayang County as long as he could remember. In his memory, his father seemed to take him to see a particularly clear stream. He could see the sand and stones at the bottom of the stream and small shells the size of fingernails.After entering the orphanage, I never went out again, let alone playing in the water.Then he came to his current home. Although he had many opportunities to go out and play, he had seen the river bridge and the majestic Hanshui River, but he had never seen any reservoirs and ponds. Is not a feeling.

After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "No."

"Then do you want to go and see? The pond should be frozen now, we can still go skating!"

Xiao Gongqing has only seen on TV that the rivers in northern cities freeze every winter, and some people dig holes in the ice to catch fish, and it is true that some people put a board with a rope under their buttocks to be pulled by others He thought it was ice skating, so he happily replied, "Okay!"
