Prohibited to approach

Xiaoxiao originally wanted to go out with Teacher Zhang to pick mushrooms and cook chicken stewed mushrooms for the eldest lady at night, but on the way, the engineering team came with a message saying that they could go to Xiaohua's house to have a look today.

Xiaoxiao and Zhang Qiao must go to have a look. Before going to Xiaohua's house, Xiaoxiao bought a big bag of steamed buns for their mothers. She wanted to buy noodles, but then she thought that grandma was old and couldn't cook well. Convenience, Xiao Hua is busy with school again, so she will buy some steamed buns first, and when she has time later, she will go over and make some for the two of them.

Zhang Qiao couldn't help sighing: "Tsk tsk tsk, auntie, you are really careful."

Xiaoxiao cheerfully said, "Xiaohua is growing up, she is already late than others, she needs to make up, let's go to the butcher shop to buy some ribs."

Although she is used to being like this with friends, Zhang Qiao couldn't help but ask: "You really don't keep any money? What does this family get for teaching for three months? Fortunately, you will be poor again after you go back."

She has recently seen how "rich and powerful" Xiaoxiao spends money.

Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhang Qiao, "What are you talking about? You have seen Xiaohua, a child who is sensitive, delicate and hardworking. The most important thing is to have a conscience. Didn't you see that she is still going home to carry firewood? Such a child must help."

Firewood is cheap, but Xiaoxiao sees her childhood shadow in Xiaohua's stubbornness.

Zhang Qiao smiled, "I think the eldest lady likes her quite a bit, and she can say a few words."

As soon as the eldest lady was mentioned, Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and said softly: "Yes, she is too lonely."

The eldest lady has no friends, not even a person to talk to. Sometimes when she comes home after work, she sees the eldest lady sitting in a wheelchair teaching Xiaohua how to read and feels warm in her heart.From a certain point of view, Xiaohua is like a friend of the eldest lady.

When Xiaohua arrived at Xiaohua's house, Xiaoxiao was already very familiar with her, so she called directly: "Xiaohua, come and help~"

The contractor and several people were looking at the structure of the house on the spot. When they heard the greeting, they all looked up in unison.

Xiaoxiao wiped the sweat off her head. She was wearing simple jeans and a white shirt. She was slim and slender. Her long hair fluttered in the wind. Her skin was so white and rosy that people couldn't take their eyes off. Xiaohua ran over and was caught Xiaoxiao hugged her up and flew around in a circle, Xiaohua's feet flew up, and the little pear dimples rippled on her cheeks, this was what Su Qiuyun did most often when he was holding her.

Xiaohua lacked the love of her parents prematurely, her indifference is a kind of protective color to some extent, Xiaoxiao would rub her every time she saw her.

Xiaohua laughed silently, she was obviously very happy, but when she was placed on the ground, like a little adult, she wrote down what Teacher Mu brought today.

Grandma said that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring.

She can't eat and drink for nothing, and when she grows up, she wants a little repayment back to Teacher Mu.

Grandma came out on a crutch, walking slowly, but with a smile on her face: "Come?" She held two twitching oranges in her hands and handed them to Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao took it with a smile. The old people are like this. Whenever a child comes to the house, they always want to get something. Grandma has no candy, so every time she takes the fruit she left, Xiaoxiao eats it clean every time. She sees Looking at the contractor and several people in the distance, they also nodded.

Including those from the neighboring villages, the contractor brought a total of five people here, which is considered to be a small labor force in the village. For such a big house, as long as the money is paid in place, they will work hard and it will be completed in a short time, the contractor He even said that he could work overtime at night, and Zhang Qiao was naturally happy when he heard that, "It may be about three months. When we leave, the house will probably be built."

Xiaoxiao looked at the contract carefully, and found that the price was quite reasonable. After including the deposit, she would take on a few more jobs, and she would be able to pay all the money when it was finished. She looked at the contractor and a few people again, thinking about it. Thinking: "Grandma, you take Xiaohua to live with Teacher Zhang for a few months."

Grandma doesn't like to cause trouble for others, she waved her hand: "It's all right, I'll just live in the side room next to it, and so does Xiaohua."

Zhang Qiao hesitated for a moment, she looked at Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao half-lidded her eyelids: "Grandma, be obedient, go and stay with Teacher Zhang for a few days, just in time, she can make up for Xiaohua's homework, she has missed a lot .”

Zhang Qiao pursed her lips. She understood what Xiaoxiao meant. With her character, she would definitely not say such words to irritate grandma. She was worried about leaving the old and the young here.

Perhaps it was childhood memories that made Xiaoxiao's heart too sensitive. She always felt that if she rushed to work day and night, she would not be at ease if so many old men were here, grandma and Xiaohua were all here.

Xiaoxiao wants to believe that people in this world are inherently kind, but her childhood experience makes her more defensive than anyone else.

Every little thing brings back the pain of the past.

Seeing that Xiaoxiao is so persistent, her granddaughter's homework is also the most important thing. Grandma finally agreed. She went into the house and wanted to pack some things, but after wandering around, there was nothing but a few clothes and a quilt. The old man felt a little sad, Xiaohua took her grandma's hand and shook her.

Don't be sad, grandma, there is her.

Xiaoxiao saw this scene, and Xiaoxiao touched Zhang Qiao's arm: "Hey, do you think this kid has the talent for our profession?"

Xiaohua is very good at comforting people.

Although he doesn't talk much, he can quickly capture people's negative emotions and comfort them.

Zhang Qiao put her hands in her pockets and said with a smile, "That's what happened."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

There are people in Jiangshan's juniors. In the future, the two of them can train Xiaohua. With her qualifications, she may be able to take child labor to work in just a few years. Didn't she always want to make money?

Xiaoxiao took grandma and Xiaohua to settle down with Zhang Qiao, which made Teacher Zhang happy. She always likes to be lively, but since she came here, she has been alone. She wants to find Xiaoxiao. Sister Qin, she can't always bother.

"Ah, ah, Xiaoxiao, call Sister Qin over tonight, and I'll make dumplings for you."

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her: "Do you know how to make bags?"

Zhang Qiao spoke boldly, pointing to Xiao Hua who was already holding a broom and started doing housework: "My child knows."

Mu Xiaoxiao: "You have to show some face!"

……

Xiaohua is really diligent, very much like Xiaoxiao when she was a child, sometimes seeing her small and thin, Xiaoxiao seemed to see her former self.

Xiaohua finished sweeping the floor and filled the tank with water. Xiaoxiao chatted with grandma, looked at the medicine she was taking, and took a picture of it with her mobile phone, thinking that she would prescribe it for her when she had time. a little.

Zhang Qiao was working on the line outside, and Xiao Hua looked very obediently and kept silent. She was very interested in this kind of high technology.

On the opposite side, there was still Shura's boss, she was wearing a black gauze dress, lying on the sofa, and said softly, "I can't sleep."

Her voice, even after processing, has a hollowed-out exhaustion to it.

Zhang Qiao is already familiar with her, "Then let me sing for you, what do you want to hear?"

The boss nodded, she thought about it, and said softly, "Let's go to "Heart Addiction"."

In the previous chat, Zhang Qiao already knew that she was also a fan of Sister Qin, and because of this, the two had a common language.

Xiaoxiao was drawn out by Zhang Qiao's singing. She knew the rules and didn't make a sound during Zhang Qiao's treatment.

There are many types of psychotherapy, not necessarily the standard face-to-face language guidance.

If you want to achieve the other party's heart, you must adopt the most acceptable method for the other party.

After a while, the people over there lay still on the sofa. Zhang Qiao checked the time and hung up the phone.

"Who is this?"

Xiaoxiao asked curiously, is it so mysterious?She also wears a Shura mask, and she wears it so sexy, and she has a good figure, so tall.

Zhang Qiao raised her eyebrows: "I don't know." She pursed her lips, a faint thought flashed across her mind, but she didn't catch it.

Generally, after psychotherapy, there will be a summary time. Xiaoxiao didn't bother Zhang Qiao, she went to read Xiaohua's homework.

Xiaohua is really amazing.

It wasn't long before she learned to write. Usually at this time, the children's handwriting looks like they are crawling, but her handwriting has the demeanor of a young lady.

God knows, she is the result of practicing hundreds or thousands of times.

"Just like your sister Qin that much?"

Xiaoxiao asked with a smile, Xiaohua nodded, she was still holding the tree branch, writing over and over on the ground the words that the eldest lady taught her.

This not only saves paper and pens, but also has a feeling of holding a brush to write. Xiaohua likes it very much.

The eldest lady's teaching is very casual, she never sticks to books, and she can learn whatever she wants to teach Xiao Hua according to her mood.

Xiaoxiao lowered her head and looked at Xiaohua on the ground who had already written a lot——Love was hard in her heart and she was silent.

Xiaohua's eyelashes blinked slightly, her eyes were particularly dark, she looked up at Xiaoxiao: "Mr. Mu, are you in a bad mood recently?"

After she went to school, she stopped calling her Auntie Xiaoxiao, and called her Teacher Mu respectfully.

Xiaoxiao was a little surprised when she heard that, she looked at Xiaohua: "How do you know?"

Xiao Hua looked at her, she was wearing a lavender dress today, her braids were tied up, it was clean, it was completely different from when they first met: "I feel that Sister Qin is not happy."

She must be unhappy because of Teacher Mu.

This is Xiaohua's most intuitive feeling, childish words are unscrupulous, but they can poke people's hearts the most.

Xiaoxiao felt a pain in her heart, she lowered her head.

Xiao Hua said softly, "I went to see her, she taught me words when she didn't speak, she always looked outside the door, as if she was waiting for something."

What is she waiting for.

Xiao Hua didn't know.

But her words pierced Xiaoxiao's heart like a sharp sword. There were some things that she couldn't say, and neither could the eldest lady.

But now, what Xiaohua said was like a sap hit Xiaoxiao's heart.

"Teacher, you have to be happy."

Xiaohua looked into Xiaoxiao's eyes, "In this way, sister can be happy."

……

Xiaoxiao's heart hasn't been churning like this for a long time. She wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be stuck.

Zhang Qiao got up and walked over, she was still holding the mobile phone in her hand, looking at Xiaoxiao's abnormality, "What's wrong?"

Xiaoxiao shook her head, eyes half downcast: "It's okay..."

"Come on, our mother and Qiuqiu's video call."

Teacher Mu was very cautious in class and never looked at her mobile phone. Several times, Qiuqiu called her and she didn't answer her. After that, Qiuqiu shifted the harassment target to Zhang Qiao.

With such a slip of the phone, Qiuqiu saw the little girl squatting on the ground practicing calligraphy, her smile stiffened, and she asked, "Sister, who is this?"

Xiaoxiao took the phone absent-mindedly, her heart was full of the eldest lady, she took a picture of Xiao Hua with the phone: "You should be called sister, sister Xiao Hua."

"Who wants a younger sister? I'm still a child!"

Qiuqiu is recovering well and has been discharged from the hospital to go home to take care of her. Su Qiuyun has been taking care of her all the time, making her look fat and white.

Xiaohua raised her head and glanced at the camera curiously, and she was facing Qiuqiu.

Mom!

Such a beautiful little girl.

Look at the big watery eyes, look at the fair little skin, look at the straight nose bridge that can slide on a slide.

Qiuqiu looked at Xiao Hua in shock, covered her mouth with one hand, and couldn't accept the fact: "Sister, how long has it been before you have a new girl, are you right?"

Mu Xiaoxiao: ...

Really crazy.

At that time, when she was treating her heart, she should knock her head open to make up for it.

Qiuqiu looked at Xiaohua angrily, and then at Xiaoxiao: "I knew it, you think I'm ugly, and you always have to find a beautiful sister to be at ease." She covered her chest: "Unexpectedly, one day I will also be at ease." Became the poor character of the pen, I—”

Qiuqiu was pulled aside by Su Qiuyun. She took the phone and looked at Xiaoxiao: "Why are you so thin? Are you not acclimatized?"

The mother is worried when the son travels thousands of miles, and Xiaoxiao is afraid that the mother is worried, so she is cheerful: "Why, the air in the village is good, and there are few cars. I turn five kilometers into ten kilometers every day."

Su Qiuyun looked at her, she really lost a lot of weight, her chin was even pointed, but her complexion was fine.

She asked Xiaoxiao about the situation there, and then told her about Qiuqiu's situation. Everything was relatively stable.

Xiaoxiao told her: "Don't take care of Qiuqiu, you are not young anymore, pay attention to your body, didn't the hospital check you for blood clots before? Remember to take medicine."

Su Qiuyun nodded: "I know, I know." She thought for a while, looked at Xiaoxiao, a little hesitant: "Xiaoxiao, have you heard?"

What did you hear?

Xiaoxiao instinctively tightened her heart when she saw her mother like this, and she was afraid that something had happened to the orphanage.

Seeing her daughter like this, she knew that she had misunderstood, Su Qiuyun quickly said: "It's not about the family, it's..."

She was so hesitant to say something that made Xiaoxiao scratch her head. She was especially afraid that something would happen to her grandma or younger siblings. Orphanage affairs are not trivial matters. She might have to go back for sure. deal with.

"Oh, mom, tell me quickly, what's the matter?" Xiaoxiao got up all of a sudden, she got up with her mobile phone and walked quickly to the shade next to the tree, Su Qiuyun looked at the anxiety in her eyes, afraid that she would think too much, "Do you remember that rapist surnamed Liu?"

These words made Xiaoxiao's body froze, and she looked at her mother in a daze.

She remembers.

Of course she remembered.

She will never forget.

That was an indelible scar in her heart, and no one had mentioned it to her for many years.

When Xiaoxiao returned to the orphanage later, she occasionally saw him in the village. He lived a good life and drank alcohol every day. Everyone in the village knew about him and took good care of the children in the family. , far away from him, and other things, he can speak well, and his ancestors left a few more rooms, rented them out, and lived a pretty good life, with a few brothers holding stinky feet by his side.

Every time Xiaoxiao saw him, she bit her lips tightly, her eyes full of hatred to swallow him alive.

"Fuck, bad luck, ****!!!"

The surname Liu was always angry and angry every time he saw Xiaoxiao. He couldn't forget the scene of being chased and beaten by this child with a shovel a few years ago. That terrified him.

……

Su Qiuyun looked at her face, and said cautiously: "Last night, your grandma called me and said that the inspection team from above came. I don't know why. What about the special anti-criminal and anti-evil project? I am sensitive to many issues in recent years. The case file was sorted out and checked again. During the review process, several cases of rape of young girls by the surname Liu were involved, including girls under the age of 14. He is a repeat crime and has a young girl. He should be sentenced to a severe sentence. , but now he is at large, making a big fuss, involving many local officials..."

Xiaoxiao felt her head pounding, and the sound of her heart beating was infinitely amplified in her ears.

She swayed, as if she couldn't hear what her mother was saying.

"Your grandma said...the supervisory team is very powerful, and now he has been sued, and several cases are linked together, so he can't escape...Xiaoxiao, did you hear what mom said?"

……

Tears were streaming down, Xiaoxiao wiped them with the back of her hand, she was choked up and could hardly speak, "Mmm."

When Su Qiuyun heard the news, his blood seemed to be flowing backwards, "Mom, I also heard from your brother Song that during his temporary detention in the detention center, he had a quarrel with the people in the prison. His right leg was shattered and fractured, and his left eye is not doing well. He might have to have his eyeball removed... He is trying to save the doctor outside the law, saying that he will be investigated and tried after he is cured. Now he has become a It's a joke, everyone talks about him saying that he deserved what he deserved, and I'm afraid he will spend his life in prison..."

It is no longer the scene of treating guests to dinner when he was released.

The wall fell and everyone pushed.

Many grown-up girls even stood up and jointly reported him.

Mom's words were like a bomb hitting Xiaoxiao's heart, and at some point, she was already in tears.

hang up the phone.

Both Zhang Qiao and Xiao Hua looked at Xiao Xiao worriedly.

They also heard what Su Qiuyun said.

Xiao Hua was confused and scared. In her heart, Teacher Mu was always optimistic and cheerful. She had never seen her cry so hard.

As for Zhang Qiao, she knew that Xiaoxiao had a knot in her heart, like a rope, which had been tied in her heart for so many years.

Seeing her like this, I'm afraid this is the case. From the phone, Zhang Qiao also heard a general idea. There are countless waves in her heart. Now, the case is suddenly reversed, what should Xiaoxiao's heart be? Such a turmoil.

At that moment, Xiaoxiao looked up at the blue sky, holding the phone tightly in her hand, letting tears roll down from the corners of her eyes.

Those gentle tears brought out the resentment that had been squeezed in her heart for many years, and brought out her despair and pain for the world when she was young.

no one knows.

In those countless dark nights, she dreamed of Lan'er again and again, and tried to catch her again and again in her dreams, but she couldn't catch her. In the end, she was almost collapsed and even thought that if she had been with her Will it not hurt so much if Lan'er jumps together?

Hell is empty, the devil is on earth.

This sentence was written by Zeng Jin on the first page of the notebook.

But now... now...

She doesn't have to think about it.

Who could it be, with such a great ability.

And who would do this silently after so many years, when everyone thought she was fine and everyone had forgotten Lan'er.

What is she for?

Xiaoxiao even wanted to slap herself hard.

miss...

miss...

Xiaoxiao's tears flowed more fiercely, she wiped her tears with one hand, looked at Zhang Qiao and choked with sobs: "I want to go back and find her."
