Lu Yunran was taken to the hospital by comrades from the police station for an examination and waited for her parents to come to communicate, and Xu Yin went home quietly.

  Originally, the comrades at the police station asked her to go with her.

   "You saved someone, and the institute will definitely honor you."

"No, no, no!" Xu Yin declined, "It's just a matter of convenience for me, and anyone who sees it will do it. Besides, the commendation must be made public, which is not good for Lu Yunran. I think we should handle this matter quietly. , don’t alarm the outside world.”

The female police officer looked at her approvingly and said, "Unexpectedly, although you are young, you can think more clearly than many adults. Which school do you belong to? If not, our director will give you a certificate of bravery for righteousness, so that The school put it in the file."

  Xu Yin also declined, determined not to praise.

   "Little girl!"

  The enthusiastic old man who helped to call the police ran over in a hurry after returning home, called to stop Xu Yin who was about to go home, and stuffed a box of hardcover chocolates into her hand.

"My grandson brought it back from a foreign competition. Neither my grandma nor I are used to this kind of bitter and sweet food. Children of your age should like it. You are welcome to eat it! I have worked hard today, and I can get it Make up for it!"

   "Thank you, sir!"

   "Thank you! My uncle lives in this unit." The building on the left of the uncle, "Room 3 on the 7th floor, come and play anytime in the future!"

"okay."

  The uncle waved his hands happily, and looked down at her knees: "Oh, look at your pants, they are all like this. Did they get scratched when you saved someone?"

  Xu Yin lowered her head and looked: Uh...the hole was cut by Yuan himself, rebellious fashion!

   Smiled mischievously: "It's okay, I'll go back and change one."

  Xu Yin hurriedly slipped away.

  Her family doesn't live in this community.

  The housing prices in this community are not low. With the hard-earned money Xu Wanping earns from selling and delivering vegetables, let alone buying, she can’t afford to pay the monthly rent.

  The mother and daughter lived in the staff dormitory building of a nearby junior high school. It was an old building with a sense of age.

  In recent years, qualified faculty and staff have successively moved to newly purchased commercial housing, where they are either resold or rented out to earn rent.

After Xu Wanping divorced her husband Xu Youwei, she had nowhere to live with her daughter who had just entered elementary school. After hearing about her difficulties, her daughter’s homeroom teacher asked a friend to introduce her to a house here, which is close to the school and low in rent. .

   Two bedrooms and one living room on the first floor, it is enough for mother and daughter to live together.

  The courtyard on the first floor is opened, making it easy to enter and exit.

  But there is also a disadvantage that many tenants do not want to live in—it is dark and damp.

  Especially during the rainy season, the ground is as wet as if it had just been mopped with a wet mop. The wallpaper and mattresses are also damp. Clothes are hung indoors on rainy days, as if they will never dry.

  But also because of this reason, the landlord hasn't raised the rent much these years, so Xu Wanping is very content.

However, due to the long period of rainy season this year, the floor has returned to moisture in the past two days. When I went out in the morning, my daughter almost fell and complained to her: "When will I be able to live in a high-rise building? If I continue to live here, my whole body will be moldy." Already!"

  Xu Wanping has received several home delivery orders in the past two days. She leaves the market in the morning and evening, and runs under the sun during the day to deliver the goods. She is so tired that her back hurts. Seeing that her daughter not only didn't understand her, but also hated this and that, she criticized her a few words when she got angry, but her daughter even talked back to her.

  Mother and daughter quarreled sharply.

  The temper of the mother scolded: "Since you look down on this house, don't live if you have the ability, and find a place to live by yourself!"

  The daughter also said angrily: "If you don't live, you can't live! Who cares!" After finishing speaking, she rushed out of the house without looking back. She didn't go home for lunch, and she still hasn't seen anyone.

Xu Wanping is going to set up a stall in the night market at the end of the alley, and if she doesn't go, the good position will be taken by others. She suppressed her anger, and Kuang Qiangqiang cooked two dishes, covered it with a rice cover, and hurriedly went to the toilet, ready to go out Spread out, the door opened.

   "Mom, I'm back." Xu Yin raised the chocolate in her hand.

"You still know how to come back?" Xu Wanping exploded with anger accumulated all day, "Run away for a day and only come back now, why don't you also sleep outside at night? Look at you! How do you look like a student! Hair It looks like a feather duster, and a hole was cut out of the good pants! You will be sixteen soon, and when your mother and I were sixteen, we..."

  What?

   Didn't know people well, got into a big fight with a scumbag and ran away from home?

   Until now, the family has not forgiven her.

  Her father also threatened to sever the father-daughter relationship with her through the mouth of her elder brother, saying that if there is no daughter like her, it depends on her own good fortune to do well, and don't tell the family if she dies outside...

  Xu Wanping's heart was suffocated, she lost her temper in an instant, and said in a hurry: "Forget it, let's eat, I'll go out of the stall first!"

   "Mom!" Xu Yin pulled her back, "Let's eat together, and I will accompany you to the stall after eating."

   "...you, you accompany me?" Xu Wanping was so surprised that her tongue was tied.

  You know, my daughter used to be reluctant to go near the vegetable stalls. Since she was a child, let alone accompany her to the stalls. When she was so busy, it would depend on her daughter’s willingness to bring her a meal. What happened today...

   "Mom, aren't you in a hurry to get out of the stall? Sit down and eat, and we'll go together after eating."

   "Oh." When Xu Wanping thought that if she didn't go to the cheap stall early, she might be squeezed into the corner, she had no time to think about it, and hurriedly sat down to pick up the meal.

Xu Yin saw that she only ate the bowl of stir-fried three shredded vegetables in front of her, and didn't touch the fish specially fried for Yuanshen. She sighed inwardly, took a chopstick of fish belly meat, and put it in Xu Wanping's bowl: "Mom, I'll eat it." Not too much, we are half of each other."

  Xu Wanping's eyes suddenly turned red, and her throat choked up: "This is fried for you, you should eat more, mom doesn't like fish very much."

   "If you don't like it, then don't buy it. If you want to buy it, buy the food we both like." Xu Yin said slowly.

  Xu Wanping paused while holding the chopsticks, and laughed dumbly: "Okay, mom doesn't like it, but I think it's hard to pick fishbone."

  My daughter likes fish and prawns the most, but prawns are too expensive, so I’m only willing to buy them during the holidays, and I usually buy fish.

   It’s not an expensive fish, just ordinary grass carp and crucian carp in the vegetable market, and occasionally change the taste to buy a few times to pick the leftover small yellow croaker and hairtail.

  Even so, she was not willing to buy more, and just said that a small amount would be enough for one or two meals for her daughter.

  She herself usually buys two pieces of dried tofu and stir-fries a vegetarian dish.

  Sometimes I don’t even buy dried tofu, I just stir-fry a vegetable with the cheapest purchase price at my stall, and then make mustard soup, as long as it can be served with rice.

This is the first time her daughter puts vegetables in her bowl, and it is a piece of white and tender fish maw with more thorns and less thorns. Xu Wanping is so upset that she pretends to have a cold, takes out a crumpled toilet paper and blows her nose , Wipe away the moisture from the corners of her eyes while her daughter is not paying attention.
