Sun Yan and the two went home after closing the stall. There was still some fire left in the stove. It was too cold outside, so they brought the stove into the house. Chen Chun brought a bucket of water and put it on the stove to warm it. He closed the door and the couple lay down.
Rest in bed.
Chen Chun squinted for a while, then got up and rode a tricycle to the market to buy oil noodles. Sun Yan woke up and got ready to wash the dishes. After she got out of bed, she felt dizzy, nauseous, and dizzy in front of her eyes. She held the door and opened it.
After standing for a while, he slowly returned to normal.
Chen Chun came back from buying noodles. Sun Yan told him the situation just now. Chen Chun said: "I felt sick on the road just now. We may have coke poisoning, mild." Sun Yan suddenly became nervous after hearing this.
When she got up, she looked at the big stove in the house and thought: If the smell was stronger, they might be suffocated to death in this rental house, and no one would know about it for a few days.
Her son Xiaobao will also be orphaned.
Lesson!
Before the second snow came, Xiaobao's parents came back.
When Xiaobao came back from school, he saw his mother standing in the yard of his second mother, wearing a green woolen coat. He felt that her mother looked like his aunt. It was too sudden. Xiaobao was a little nervous. She looked at her mother timidly.
, a little unfamiliar.
He opened his mouth, but was embarrassed to call out "Mom". Sun Yan greeted her son who came home from school, and reached out to hold his son's two little hands.
Xiaobao leaned on his mother's legs, raised his face, and smiled.
Sun Yan stroked her son's head and said, "Mom's meal is ready. Let's go and eat it." She lifted her son's collar. This lotus-colored corduroy cotton-padded jacket was something she bought for her son when she was at home last year.
, now the zippers are broken, and the buckles and buttons have been reset. They must have been sewn by the second sister-in-law with stitches and threads. Sun Yan looked at the childish figure of her son happily running into the second mother's kitchen. The tip of her nose felt sour for no reason, and her eyes filled with tears.
burst into tears.
In the evening, Xiaobao drank the best drink, and his mother handed him an exquisite schoolbag.
My mother said: "This is a gift from Aunt Wang Ping from Dalian."
Xiaobao took the schoolbag and opened it to take a look: there was a red envelope inside and a lot of snacks. Xiaobao was very happy. He lay next to his mother with his eyes open and couldn't sleep for a long time.
A month later, Sun Yan carried her son's schoolbag and a bag of clothes and led her son to her sister Sun Hui's house.
Xiaobao will stay at his aunt's house this year to continue his studies.
Xiaobao didn't want to leave home. He told his mother, "Let my dad go out and earn money alone this year." Sun Yan only thought about making more money, but ignored the child's loneliness. What he needed more was his parents.
dependence and companionship.
Sun Yan's sister, Sun Hui, lives near the town. The school she attends is convenient and has good teaching quality.
The school leaders controlled the number of loan students. Sun Yan said hello to her ninth brother, Sun Gang, and asked him to be accommodating to the principal of this school. After all, they were all working in the education field and should be easier to talk to.
Along the way, Sun Yan held her son's hand, but Xiaobao kept twisting it and ignored her.
Sun Yan controlled herself not to think too much, otherwise she would cry if she thought too much.
She was reluctant to leave her son in her hometown.
At the end of last year, she went to Dalian Laohutan Street Primary School for consultation. The principal said: "Students from other places have to pay tuition fees. They must stay in one grade for the first time." Sun Yan also considered her own situation. The simple room she lived in was cold.
, the conditions are poor, life is unstable, and my son also suffers when he comes.
I think it's better to stay at home.
Sun Yan entrusted her son to her sister, said goodbye to her mother, and then embarked on the road back to the city with her hometown's specialty tea and chestnuts.
Xiaobao signed up and started a new semester at his aunt's house and a new school.
After Sun Yan arrived in Dalian, she took over the fried dough stick business in several construction site canteens.
She wakes up earlier every day and insists on delivering a plain soy milk to Sister Wang Ping in the evening.
Wang Ping often visits her stall in the morning, and when she is busy, she lends a hand and chats with the residents who come to buy fried dough sticks. Anyone she knows knows that she brought Chen Chun and his wife here.
The oil terms of the construction site canteen gradually became owed and credited.
Sun Yan often went to ask for accounts, and if she followed closely, she would give part of the money and hold back part of it.
Fortunately, the business at the stall is okay.
The weather goes from cold to hot to cold again, slowly slipping into the harsh winter, and the new year is coming to an end again.
People working outside are returning home one after another.
Villages and market towns are bustling again.
Those who returned home brought back some traces of the city.
Wearing decent clothes and carrying exquisite bamboo bags, they went to the market town stores and street stalls to take a leisurely look.
Some vendors at the stalls were touting business and saying nice things: "Hey, my fellow villagers who made a lot of money are back. Come, take a look and buy something. Things from my hometown are cheap..." After hearing this, most people would come over and pick some.
Some bought it home and did not negotiate the price for the sake of face.
In recent years, some people have gone out to work and brought prosperity to their hometowns.
In addition to eating and drinking, they earn money outside and save the rest to spend.
Those who stayed at home planted more fields and harvested more grain, and two-story buildings were erected in the countryside.
School was over at noon, and Xiaobao hurried home.
After being locked up in school all morning, I was already hungry.
Grandma, who had been staying at her aunt's house, heard the footsteps, leaned out from the kitchen and said loudly: "Xiaobao, your mother is back." Xiaobao stopped with a "ga", looking confused and a little restrained.
Sun Yan heard the sound and stood up to greet him.
She pulled her son into the kitchen and sat down, then hugged him and sat on her knees.
