unkind [rebirth]

Early in the morning on New Year's Eve, Du Guo and Zhang Qiu went to the grave.

First, they burned paper for Grandpa and Du Linping with a big family, and then Zhang Qiu proposed to stay alone for a while, and the others went down the mountain first.

Du Linping was buried next to his grandfather, and there was a place left beside his grandfather's tomb, presumably for grandma's future joint burial, but there was no space next to Du Linping's tomb, Zhang Qiu didn't even think about dying and came to him.

Together with Zhang Qiu, Du Guo cleaned Du Linping's tombstone and swept the table in front of the tombstone.

On the tombstone is a black and white photo of Du Linping. The man with a bright smile is very handsome. Du Guo knelt down and said to the tombstone, "Dad, happy new year."

Going up the mountain and working again, fine sweat oozes from Zhang Qiu's forehead.She loosened the scarf a little, took out the prepared paper money and put it in the brazier.

"Lin Ping, another year has passed."

Du Guo didn't expect Zhang Qiu to be able to speak.In the past, when they burned paper for Du Linping, they always left after burning and never stayed.So Du Guo stood aside silently, wanting to hear what Zhang Qiu had to say.

Zhang Qiu continued to talk softly in a homely tone: "Our mother is in good health and can eat and sleep. You don't have to worry. Your brothers and sisters are also very smart and capable. They have lived without you all these years." That's right, you can rest assured. This is your son Du Guo, who has grown so tall now, you didn't have time to take a look."

Speaking of Du Guo, Zhang Qiu showed a slight smile on his face: "Du Guo is very competitive, and his final exam results have improved again. If this continues, he will definitely be able to enter a key university. It's just a bit of a strange hobby..."

Du Guo looked away, not knowing whether to be happy or worried.It turned out that even Zhang Qiu could see his hard work!But what is a "strange hobby"?

Zhang Qiu continued as if no one was around, "Anyway, you have nothing to do with it."

Du Guo: "..."

The heat dissipated and the cold rose. Zhang Qiu tightened her scarf again. She rubbed her hands together and said almost heartlessly: "Du Linping, after Du is over, I will never come again. I have done everything I promised you." , and you promised me, but you didn't do anything. Thinking about it, you have been away for more than ten years, and you should go to elementary school after reincarnation. This is very good, and after a hundred years from me, we don't have to meet again. "

After Zhang Qiu finished speaking, she took a deep breath, as if these words belonged to Shen Ke who was stuck in her heart, and she was relieved when she said them.

"Let's go." Zhang Qiu said.

Du Guo glanced at Du Linping's photo, and the man's smile was still there forever.

The mother and son went down the rugged mountain road. Because the snow was so thick, the only thing they could see was the white snow and the deeply sunken footprints on the snow, so they walked very slowly by stepping on the footprints.

"Du Guo." Zhang Qiu said.

"En?" Du Guo walked very carefully, always on guard against Zhang Qiu's fall, so he just responded casually.

Zhang Qiu lowered his head and looked at the road, seemingly casually, but his tone was serious: "Du Guo, it was my mother who was not good in the past, but these years, my mother has treated you badly."

With a few simple words, Du Guo was struck by lightning.Zhang Qiu apologized to him?His mother, apologize to him? !

Not to mention Zhang Qiu's invincible image of a strong woman, making her subdued is just a dream, and he would apologize to his son?

The magical bond from the blood made Du Guo deeply bury the resentment and complaints in his heart, and the moment his biological mother said that he had treated him badly, it suddenly disappeared.Instead, it was a pain that was so strong that it twisted my heart.They depended on each other for more than ten years, Zhang Qiu sheltered him from the wind and rain, he worked hard for Zhang Qiu, and he was clearly struggling with fate, why did he have to drift away and not treat each other better?

"Mom, don't say that..." Du Guo said hoarsely.Thousands of words can't describe my feelings, but there is only such a dry sentence.

"Okay, let's not talk about it." Zhang Qiu took Du Guo's arm, feeling more satisfied than ever: "Let's live well in the future."

"En." Du Guo almost uttered this voice with the mentality of swearing.

Have a good time, we all have a good time.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, a generous figure walked towards them, firmly blocking the way of Du Guo and Zhang Qiu. Du Guo turned sideways to make way, but the other party had no intention of leaving. Instead, he stopped and said to Zhang Qiu: "sister in law."

"En." Zhang Qiu let out a sound from his nose, which was regarded as a response.Only then did Du Guo take a closer look at the other party. He was a hale and hearty man in his 40s. On his straight police cap, the police badge was shining brightly in the sun.

"I'll come and see my second brother too." The man said, but he didn't intend to give way. He turned his face and saw Du Guo, with a smile on his face: "This is Du Guo, he's grown up so much, he's really energetic, and he really looks like his second brother." .”

"Captain Liu, we still have something to do, so let's take our leave first." Zhang Qiu was very shameless, and left without saying anything.Du Guo had no choice but to follow, but the lonely figure of the man still made Du Guo look back.

As if sensing Du Guo's gaze, the man turned around, met Du Guo's eyes, and made a phone call gesture with a smile.

Du Guo could tell that Zhang Qiu's attitude towards men was different from others.Zhang Qiu is usually indifferent to people, because he is too lazy to take care of your indifference, but he has almost untraceable dislike for this man.

After walking away, Zhang Qiu suddenly remembered something: "By the way, it's time to pay Tang Yu, but I forgot."

Tang Yu, that "friend" who framed himself, betrayed himself, thought he was too good and too smooth.He is a poor student funded by Zhang Qiu!

"Ah, let me go!" Du Guo said first. "I also want to feel the mood of doing good."

Without doubting him, Zhang Qiu took out his wallet from his bag: "Well, then you go, I'll go to your grandma's house first, let's stay for another night, and leave tomorrow."

"Okay." Du Guo took the money, put it in his pocket, and walked along with Zhang Qiu after entering the town.

But he didn't go to the bank, he just walked around outside.

What about the money, what does it matter if you receive it later?

Anyway, having nothing to do, Du Guo called Luo Wei.In fact, he wanted to fight yesterday, but thinking that he couldn't help complaining about those bad relatives, he held back, not wanting to bring negative emotions to Luo Wei.

Luo Wei only answered the phone when the ringing was about to end. The background sound was very loud, and he might be at a party.

"Teacher, I wish you a Happy New Year in advance!"

"You too, is it fun to go back to your hometown?"

Du Guo hasn't contacted Luo Wei for the past few days. Luo Wei's heart is empty, but he doesn't want to admit that he misses Du Guo a little bit.At this time, when I heard Du Guo's voice, I felt better immediately.

"It's not bad, it's cold. Teacher, long time no see, I miss you so much! Do you have time at night? Our family's Chinese New Year is quite boring, can I call you?" In order not to arouse Luo Wei's positive reaction, Du Guo intentionally made the ambiguity between the two of them appear to be nothing, and the proportion of cheating with Luo Wei is always just right, and he can advance or retreat.No teacher can reject a lively and motivated student, Du Guo is very sure of this.

Sure enough, Luo Wei agreed: "Okay, call me when you are free."

"Okay! Wait for me!"

Du Guo happily hung up the phone, but the phone rang happily again before it was put away, it was still an unknown number.Du Guo instantly thought of the uncle he met in the afternoon, so he answered the phone politely:

"Hello."

"Hi, it's Du Guo, I'm your Uncle Liu, we met this afternoon."

"Oh, Uncle Liu. What's the matter?"

"Yes, there is indeed something, can you meet with me? Your father has some relics, and I want to give them to you."

As the man said, Du Guo frowned.Du Linping's relic?Did you have this thing in your previous life?
