Tolerate

Zuo Xinmiao was about to close the door angrily, when she suddenly saw a woman running out of the roadside field in a hurry.

"Where are you going? Why are you running in such a hurry..."

"County city." Chi Muyun panted slightly, straightened his backpack behind him, and handed the fare to Zuo Xinmiao.She sat down at a window seat, and the "Old Cow" started slowly.Not far away, there is a flock of pure white sheep, like the reflection of clouds.

The dark girl turned around suddenly.Chi Muyun subconsciously waved his hand over there.

The girl flicked her whip, but she didn't seem to see her, turned around and walked away slowly with the sheep.

Chi Muyun took out his cell phone and sent a text message back to his mother: "Mom, now I'm taking the bus to the county seat."

With the sun hanging overhead, Lu Qingming sat down and took out the steamed buns in the cloth pocket, took a bite, put them back in the cloth pocket, wiped his mouth, stood up, and drove the sheep down the mountain with a whip.

She pursed her lips, and the whip crackled on the ground. After a meal, she took the sheep back to the village.

The great grandma and grandpa were having lunch. When they saw her enter the room, they put down their chopsticks in doubt: "Is it too hot outside? Let's eat by ourselves."

Lu Qingming licked his dry lips, looked around, and then opened the curtain of the east room.The room was quiet, and the mattress she had slept on was neatly folded there.

Lu Qingming panicked.

"... Yun?" She ran to the side of the grandma in the outer room, muttering in bewilderment with her big eyes open.

"Sister-in-law is home, and I will come to see you again during the Chinese New Year, ah." The great-grandmother touched her head, and she shrank her head abruptly, staring blankly at the ground.

When she was ten years old, she didn't know what caring was. Naturally, she couldn't learn how to give to others what others didn't give her.The woman left, but left a strange emotion in her heart, her chest was sore, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Grandma sighed: "This child..."

Summer in the north is always short.As soon as the summer vacation is over, the autumn wind picks up.The night before school started, Lu Qingming came back from having dinner at his great-grandmother's house, and saw his stepmother looking through her cardboard boxes, with Zhuzhu poking around.

"Let's wear new clothes to school tomorrow." Gui Qin took out all her clothes, threw them on the kang, and looked back at Lu Qingming.During a summer vacation, the child grew taller again.Guiqin glanced at the short and puffy pillars, and couldn't help muttering: "You only grow tall, but you don't grow brains..."

Lu Qingming had no expression on his face, as if he didn't hear her, he sat on Kang Yan'er and carefully folded his clothes.

Gui Qin gave her a blank look, took out a stack of change from her pocket, counted and counted, and put it on the cabinet: "Tuition fee, get it for me, see if I lose it..." She made a gesture to pinch Lu Qingming. Arm, Lu Qingming shrank his hands and avoided it.

Guiqin didn't really want to pinch her, so she pulled up the pillar and said lazily, "Let's go, Zhuzi, let's go back to the house."

Moonlight slipped in through the cracks in the window.Guiqin turned her head to look at the sleeping pillar, and carefully drew the curtains to block out the bright moonlight.

Guiqin originally thought that the silly girl would not be allowed to go to school in the new school year, but her mother-in-law refused to let her go, saying that she would wait until Wensong came back.A silly girl is just a fool, she counts down on exams every time, what's the use of going to school?It's better to save the money and save it for Zhuzi to marry a wife.

However, Lu Wensong also said when he came back last time that it is useless for a silly girl to study, so she might as well come down and help the family with work.Thinking of this, Guiqin turned over and couldn't help laughing smugly.Lu Wensong was her husband, so he naturally listened to her.

In the west room, Lu Qingming could not fall asleep for the first time listening to the snoring of his grandparents.Grandma said she would come back for the Chinese New Year, but how long is it until the Chinese New Year?

Lu Qingming snapped his fingers and did the calculations for a long time but couldn't figure it out.She groped to put the new clothes on the bedside into her arms, lowered her head and sniffed.

It was the smell of that woman.

Lu Qingming smelled his clothes again. It smelled like sheep and sweat.

She got out of bed quietly, picked up the thermos on the ground, touched a basin, and slipped into the yard.Mixing half a basin of well water with half a pot of hot water, Lu Qingming took off his clothes and began to scrub carefully.

There was no such kind of soap at home, no matter how Lu Qingming washed it, he couldn't wash it off like that woman's smell.But at last there was no sheep smell on him.

Just after dawn, Lu Qingming opened his eyes.Get up and hold the firewood, light the fire, and heat the rice.It's all done, and the people in the two rooms haven't gotten up yet.Lu Qingming ate steamed buns and pickles, and put some more in the aluminum lunch box.She hesitated, but put on the new clothes anyway.

Liwanzi Primary School is really a "small" school. There is a sandy field as a playground, and there are two rows of bungalows next to it. There are classrooms, offices, dormitories, and kitchens.

Lu Qingming came early, and only the small monitor of the third grade came.

The small squad leader holds the "power to open the door", and a red string is tied to the class key and hung around his neck.She looked up and saw that it was Lu Qingming who came in, and she curled her lips in disdain.

Lu Qingming scratched his hair, found a random seat and sat down.The squad leader was fiddling with his new pencil case, and glanced at Lu Qingming from time to time.

"Who bought you the clothes?" the little squad leader said stiffly.One must know that no one in the class talked to Lu Qingming.If anyone talks to Lu Qingming, everyone will laugh at him.Lu Qingming was always dirty, but today he was clean and fresh, wearing new clothes and carrying a new schoolbag, which was really surprising.

Lu Qingming raised his head and stared at her blankly: "Little... aunt."

"Where did you come from, aunt?" the squad leader muttered.

"Little aunt." Lu Qingming repeated.

The squad leader pursed his lips and turned his head to ignore Lu Qingming: "It's hard to talk to idiots..."

But after a while, she really wanted to know where the fool bought his new schoolbag, the style was something she had never seen before.Just as he was about to speak back, there was a burst of laughter from the door.She turned back quickly.

Several girls walked in together.

"Oh my god!" The thin Xinxin stared round her eyes.To be honest, she hardly paid attention to what Lu Qingming looked like. She knew that Lu Qingming had mental problems, couldn't speak well, and was dirty.

"Why do I think she looks pretty?" Xinxin sat down and whispered to the class monitor.

The squad leader sneered: "What are you talking about? Are you stupid?"

Xinxin stuffed a piece of white rabbit toffee into the monitor's palm: "It's not as good as you, hehehe."

Only then did the little monitor triumphantly peel off the big white rabbit and put it in his mouth.

"Hey," another girl sat next to Lu Qingming and said with a smile, "You can be my deskmate."

Lu Qingming looked up at her.Many people thought she was stupid and couldn't remember people. In fact, she remembered, but she couldn't speak out quickly.The girl in front of her is called Sun Xiaohe, she has a round face and big eyes, she is quite popular in the class.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Sun Xiaohe stared: "Why, you still don't want to?"

Lu Qingming said blankly: "No..."

She just wasn't used to this feeling for a while.She could vaguely understand that her classmates had changed their opinion of her because she changed into new clothes and took a bath.

When eating at noon, Sun Xiaohe saw that there were only steamed buns and pickles in her lunch box, and gave her a scrambled egg.

From that day on, Lu Qingming realized that people still need to be cleaner.So she boiled hot water to scrub whenever she had the chance.Although she felt that Sun Xiaohe was a little noisy, at least someone would talk to her, and there was one less person who bullied her.

Autumn is over and winter is here.Winter is over and Spring Festival is here.

The woman did not come back.

On New Year's Eve, Lu Qingming stepped on the snow and went to his grandma's house.The door is locked, and there are several car marks on the door.She folded her sleeves and stared at the car print in a daze.

"Old Lu's family?"

Lu Qingming turned around and saw a woman wearing a red turban.Zhao Chunhua glanced at the silly girl and said, "Your great-grandfather and great-grandmother are going to the city to celebrate the New Year! Two sedan chairs picked them up!"

Lu Qingming was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned and ran away.

Zhao Chunhua looked at the back of her running wildly, and muttered: "All fools know how to get close to rich people..."

Lu Qingming ran home in one breath and rushed into the west room.Lu Wensong was sitting on the kang teasing his son, frowning and shouting: "Why are you running like crazy!"

"... Yun... grandma..." Lu Qingming spoke incoherently.

"You child, you are a mother if you have milk!" Gui Qin glanced at her and said strangely, took out a handful of peanuts, and placed them in front of the small pillar.

The husband and wife ignored Lu Qingming's anxiety.Lu Wensong peeled a peanut and stuffed it into Xiao Zhuzi's mouth, and said, "I never thought that after all these years, I really found it."

Guiqin curled her lips: "There's nothing you can't do with money."

Lu Wensong smacked his lips: "What you said is that such a young child is lost, and I want you to find it for more than [-] years. I'll see if you can persist."

"What are you talking about!" Gui Qin yelled her voice broke, "You cursed the pillar!"

Lu Wensong picked out his ear: "Look why you are so anxious, isn't this about someone else's house?"

Guiqin gloated and said: "Your uncle and your aunt are also unlucky. They both gave birth to girls. What's the use of getting the older one back now? It's still worthless. In the future, I will see who they will give to everyone's great success."

Although Lu Wensong also had a lot of dissatisfaction with his uncle, he was not happy when Guiqin said this about his uncle: "Here it is for you, it's all for you, let's do it!"

"What's the use of giving me a person with a foreign surname?" Guiqin lovingly straightened Xiao Zhuzi's collar, "It's okay to give us Zhuzi."

"Dream!" Lu Wensong snorted, "Where are the two sons-in-law in the future, can they still be the pillars?"

Lu Qingming didn't understand.But she really wanted to know where Chi Muyun was, so she stubbornly stood beside him.Lu Wensong looked at her, not seeing her for a year, and this girl grew a lot taller.

Lu Wensong peeled a peanut: "Girl, don't go to school in the second half of the year, okay? Help your mother with work at home, in two years..." He handed the peanut to his daughter, who froze for a moment and reached out to take it. The eyes were downcast, reminding him of her mother.

Her mother is good at everything, more beautiful and capable than Guiqin, but unfortunately she is his cousin, Lu Guodong's niece.

Lu Wensong was silent, and Gui Qin couldn't help but answer: "It's time to find my husband's house in two years."

Lu Qingming stared blankly at the peanut in his palm.

"In a few days, Mu Yun should send her grandparents back," Lu Wensong said to Guiqin, "I don't know if the recovered cousin will come back."
