"Woof woof woof" the local dog suddenly barked twice in the direction of the village entrance, as if to remind Ning Ning who was back, then squeezed out from the gap in the fence, wagging its tail enthusiastically and happily, and greeted the other party.
"Ning Ning?"
A deep and tired voice sounded.
Ning Ning, who was squatting next to her brother, seemed like a puppy when she heard the meal signal. She pricked up her ears and rushed over with bright eyes: "Dad!!!"
Su Jianguo had just come back from outside. His clothes were covered with mud. He looked at Ning Ning's beautiful little skirt and retracted his outstretched hand: "Don't hug Dad, it will stain the little skirt."
Before he finished speaking, a little girl chirped, hugged his thigh, raised her cute little face, and smiled: "Dad, it doesn't matter. My brother said that we are relatives, and relatives don't care about material things." The gains and losses must be based on the feelings between each other."
The little skirt became dirty, but Ning Ning didn't care at all.
"Little skirt, this is Ning Ning's father."
Ning Ning spoke to the little skirt.
Su Jianguo cooperated with his daughter and said to Xiaoskirt: "Hello, Xiaoskirt, I am Su Jianguo, and I am Ningning's adoptive father."
"It's dad."
Ning Ning puffed up her cheeks: "Ning Ning only has a father! He is not an adoptive father!"
Su Jianguo grinned: "I will always be Ningning's father. But Ningning also has to think about the feelings of another father."
Ning Ning fell silent, lowered her head, and uttered after a while: "They don't want me anymore..."
Su Jianguo was stunned for a moment, and his face became angry: "What's going on? Who made you feel wronged? Tell dad about it!"
The little precious egg that Su Jianguo held in his palm was not only taken away by force, but also bullied?
At this time, Xu Yanzhao came over and introduced himself to Su Jianguo's confused eyes: "Hello, I am Xu Yanzhao, Ningning's first cousin. Regarding Ningning's biological parents, I will explain to you in detail later. "
Xu Yanzhao is handsome and handsome, wearing a suit and leather shoes, but he is willing to get dirty for Ning Ning.
In addition to what Ning Ning said about her brother just now, her eyes softened slightly: "I'll wait for your explanation. Let's go inside first and have a drink of water."
Father Su took out the key and unlocked the fence door.
The locks in rural areas can only protect against gentlemen, not villains.
The neighbors are all old neighbors for decades. It is normal for them to bump into each other and quarrel, but they will never do anything sneaky. In addition, everyone will actively help if there is anything that needs help.
In the past, when Jiang Yufen was still here, after dinner every day, she would take Ning Ning with her and make an appointment with some good sisters to chat under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village.
The women were knitting sweaters while looking at the little bunnies running around.
From time to time, shout a few words loudly to stop the child's dangerous behavior.
"Brother, drink water."
Ning Ning poured a glass of water from the boiling water bottle, put a handful of tea leaves in it, and handed it to Xu Yanzhao.
Xu Yanzhao took a sip. The water was a bit hot to his mouth. The tea should be made of rough tea foam, which made his mouth irritate.
However, there was no dissatisfaction on Mr. Xu's face, and he thanked his sister softly: "Thank you Ningning for the water."
He calmly looked around the environment: this small bungalow has two rooms, one is the bedroom of the Su family and his wife, and the other is Ningning's bedroom.
Ningning's bedroom faces south, with sunlight shining through. The light green floral curtains covering the window have specially embroidered patterns of ducks and chickens, which look very childlike.
Ningning's room has the best ventilation and lighting in the whole house.
Although the layout is not grand enough, every decoration is carefully thought out.
On the windowsill, a lily of the valley dug from the roadside was full of vitality, with white flowers sprouting out.
"Ning Ning, help dad go to the kitchen and get some scissors."
Su Jianguo found a reason to send Ning Ning away.
Looking at Ning Ning's bouncing figure, the middle-aged man's face darkened: "Brothers of the Xu family, can we talk now?"
Xu Yanzhao had to sigh that Ningning's adoptive parents really loved their children. From beginning to end, their focus was on the children.
So he told the whole story.
After listening to the story, Su Jianguo was furious and stood up: "You don't want Ning Ning, why do you want to take her away?"
Since his wife left, Ning Ning has become the only support for this simple and steady man.
But this pillar was also taken away.
What made him even more angry was that the child he regarded as his treasure could not return to his biological parents!
"How can there be parents who don't want their own flesh and blood? They are not worthy of being parents at all!"
Su Jianguo scolded her for a long time and then took a breath: "They don't want Ning Ning, but I want her. You send Ning Ning back, and I'll let the child live a good life even if I'm selling it."
"I'm not sending Ning Ning back to you." Xu Yanzhao said softly: "Ning Ning will return to the Xu family from the beginning to the end. The Xu family will not allow her direct bloodline to wander outside. She still has uncles, uncles, grandfathers and brothers, and Ning Ning Ning is back because she misses you."
After a pause, he added in Su Jianguo's ugly face: "Ning Ning will suffer if she follows you, but if she is in the Xu family, although she does not have the love of her parents, with us brothers here, she will not suffer. Wronged."
"As far as I know, when your wife was alive, the medical expenses had not been fully paid off."
Su Jianguo was silent for a moment, raised his hands to cover his face and stopped talking.
A thick layer of calluses on the palms pricked my cheeks, and I couldn't tell whether it was the pain in my hands from doing heavy work or the pain in my face due to the wind and sun that had shed several layers of skin and regrown it.
"you're right."
Just when Xu Yanzhao thought this topic was over, he heard Su Jianguo's voice.
Dull and heavy, just like this suffering man.
"Ning Ning will only suffer if she follows me. You can give her a better life."
"But as a father... I beg you... don't make her sad..."
This is a father's plea, enough to move anyone.
Xu Yanzhao's handsome and elegant face, which was polite and indifferent to everyone (except his own sister), finally showed a sense of caution: "Please rest assured, I, Xu Yanzhao, hereby promise that in this life I will be blessed with peace, peace, joy, and everything I want." worry."
Xu Yanzhao's promise was so simple and unpretentious, yet so profound.
Two men of different ages looked at each other and felt an extra responsibility in each other's hearts.
"Dad, the scissors are back."
Outside the door, Ning Ning held up the small scissors, followed by the big yellow dog "Sisi".
Su Jianguo never showed his troubles in front of his daughter. He smiled on his square face and said, "Dad will open some star fruits for you to eat."
He pulled out a bamboo frame from under the table, cut the ropes tied on it, and took out a few fist-sized star fruits.
The star fruit is golden and plump.
It has a distinctly ripe and sweet aroma.
