"Hongmei, your daughter has to be taught well, and only a few days after school, she was called the parent by the teacher."

The Jiang family and the old lady Jiang looked at her daughter-in-law and warned.

"Don't learn some rules in the country."

This sentence meant something, and Mrs. Jiang was not accustomed to Hongmei, who had a husband who was fooling around with other men, and finally took her son to the top, abandoning her husband who might be disabled.This kind of infidelity and ruthlessness in marriage made old lady Jiang think of her former daughter-in-law. She was afraid that one day her son would have an accident. Yu Hongmei would abandon her son just as she would abandon her former husband.

This kind of woman is a standard person who can share the same things but can't suffer together. She still has to put a coat of true love on her greed and wealth with her rhetoric. Mrs. Jiang is looking at the face of two unborn children. Leave her and wait for the fruit to ripen and let her live a good life.

"Mom, the flowers are not sensible, I have taught her well."

Yu Hongmei looked at the old lady's flattering words and then pulled the sleeves of her daughter, prompting her to apologize and promise that she would never make a mistake again.

"I am not wrong."

Jiang Hua lowered her head, tears dropped into the rice bowl in front of her. She seemed to be eating the rice in the bowl mechanically, mixed with the salty taste of tears, and her mood was more depressed.

"Are you right? It's the fault of those classmates, is it that those classmates are joining together to bully you for no reason?"

Yu Hongmei was impatient. "You weren't like this before."

The former Hua Kaizhi was sensible, but it is not such a small crying bag that makes people look angry.

Jiang Hua lowered her head and did not speak. She thought to herself that her mother hadn't been like this before.

"Anyway, I'm right."

She put down the bowl, covered her face and ran upstairs, covering herself tightly with a quilt. This is only in this closed and narrow space, she can be temporarily relieved.

"This kid!"

Yu Hongmei stood up and wanted to talk to her daughter Jiang Hua in the past. Didn’t she know that her unreasonable behavior was embarrassing her mother? Originally, Jiang Jiaer was not used to her, and now her daughter There is no tutoring in this way, I am afraid that the two old men even think she is not a good woman.

"Forget it, the child is still young."

Recently, the business of the disc shop is very difficult to do. There are fewer and fewer people renting discs, and the two networks he opened. Recently, people often report it. It is not that parents and teachers come to the net to find those who are underage. Students, that is, people from the fire brigade and industry and commerce bureau come to check the safety hazards and business qualifications in the store. Because of these people, the business of these Skynets has plummeted.

Therefore, Jiang Tiancheng was in a bad mood. He did not want to listen to his wife's education with her ex-husband's children during the only break.

I am afraid that only Jiang Ruyi knew the beginning and end of all this. When Jiang Hua felt sad, she bowed her head a little guilty, and it was rare that she did not find Hongmei's stubble at dinner.

*****

After eating, Yu Hongmei helped Jiang Tiancheng put the bath water away, and while Jiang Tiancheng was taking a bath, he secretly went to his daughter's room.

"Cry, cry, what's so good, I've been wronged by turning you to a better school."

Yu Hongmei felt a little sullen as soon as she saw that her little daughter was mourning again.She unconsciously covered her belly, and did not know whether the two little babies she was pregnant would be affected by this sister.

"Okay, since you are so wronged, then you can talk about how the classmates bullied you. Don't just cry, but you can't say why."

Yu Hongmei didn’t believe the words that her daughter said just now. The children in the city are very well-educated. How could she bully her for a transfer from a township primary school for no reason? The daughter must have done something. not good enough.

"I am not wrong!"

Jiang Hua has been patient for too long. Although she is young, she also knows that some words cannot be said in the presence of new grandpas and new grandmothers. Because that does not affect her mother so much, she still loves her mother, so she is unwilling to say those who are right. If she has a bad influence.

But her mother's incomprehension made her feel wronged. At this time, only her mother and daughter were left alone. She finally couldn't help it, and wanted to tell her wrong.

"They all laughed that I was Xiaosan's daughter, saying that you are bad, I am little bad, we laughed at my dirty, laughed at me stinky, but I am not dirty nor smelly, I take a bath every day, I am not a bad boy, nor Dirty child."

Jiang Hua was exhausted, why did everything look like today, and why did mom have to leave his father, did they live badly before?

She didn't like the new home at all, she didn't like the villa and the new school at all, and she wanted to return to her former life.

"Snapped--"

After listening to her daughter's words, Yu Hongmei's first reaction was not distress, but a slap in the face.

"Nonsense!"

The thought of being so obscure has become a conversation resource for elementary school children, and the thick-skinned Hongmei can't help but feel ashamed, especially when these words are retold from her daughter's mouth.

The strength of this slap was not small, Jiang Hua covered her face, feeling half of her face was wood.

She stopped crying and covered her face, her heart completely cooled at this moment.

"I think you were really broken by your dad, so dare to say anything."

Yu Hongmei avoided her daughter's gaze, "Okay, go to bed early, and go to school with your elder sister tomorrow. As for those ignorant classmates, just ignore them. All are ignorant children. The more they care about what they say, the more they have to do that, as long as you don't provoke them, they will naturally stop."

Having said that, Yu Hongmei didn't want to pretend to be a caring mother anymore. She left Jiang Hua's room and hurried back to her house.

*****

The next day, Yu Hongmei watched her daughter wash quietly and ate breakfast quietly, thinking that after a short sleep her daughter finally became sensible, the big stone in her heart put down, and then watched the babysitter put the two children on the bus .

After arriving at the school, Jiang Ruyi walked to the junior high school with a schoolbag on his back, and Jiang Hua, who was supposed to walk to the elementary school, turned a corner after separating from Jiang Ruyi and walked out of the school gate.

According to memory, Jiang Hua walked to the bus platform, and she remembered to be able to return to her home in the countryside by bus.

It was just that Jiang Hua went out a few times after all. The first bus on the bus was going in the opposite direction.

"Little girl, you are at the terminal, don't you get off?"

For half an hour, the bus driver was ready to get off and go to the station to take a cup of hot water. Seeing Jiang Hua hadn't got off, he asked curiously.

"Down, down."

Yesterday Jiang Hua thought about a night's escape plan, and he didn't sleep well at all. He just fell asleep after sitting in the back row of the car all the way, and then he was awakened by the driver's words.

Looking at this totally strange environment, she was a little flustered, but she hurriedly got off the bus with a headless fly.

Now she is at a bus terminal. Jiang Hua clutched her schoolbag tightly, and then walked to a crowded place. This time she learned wisely, and found that many people were staring at the bulletin board beside the platform. There are many place names written on it. It seems that the bus stops are the same as these place names.

She had just entered the first grade and could not recognize a few words. In addition, many of the platforms on the bulletin board used written names. On weekdays, Jiang Hua used dialects to hear these names. Yes, Jiang Hua got on another bus.

Obviously, she had bad luck today. She was wrong in one of the words, but not in the other. The platform where she got off was still far from where she wanted to go.

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings and the bustling crowd, Jiang Hua began to regret her decision to run away from home.

She should figure out how to take the home bus before leaving her mother's house.

"Goo--goo--"

In the morning, Jiang Hua only drank a bowl of gruel. At this time, her belly was already hungry. Fortunately, her height was less than the height of the ticket. There was no cost to take the bus. Now she still has a penny in her pocket. This is the pocket money she saved before.

Jiang Hua used the money to buy three meat buns, and she ate half of them. After feeling half full, she started her journey home.

Along the way, she did not dare to ask strangers for directions, because her father said that many traffickers like to abduct her children of her age. Although Jiang Hua was ruthless, she appeared to have a full-fledged look on the surface, as if these shifts She is used to it, and there are people waiting for her at the destination.

In this way, when it was dark, Jiang Hua not only did not find a way home, but instead made himself tired and hungry and thirsty.

It was getting deeper and the weather was getting colder. She was wearing a thin autumn shirt. Jiang Hua clutched her arm and watched the fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road. She finally panicked.

"Dad, brother."

The little girl wiped her tears and walked forward with heavy steps. Under the light, the huge shadow was like a monster, and she could be eaten in the next second.

Jiang Hua started to miss the old days. At that time, Dad’s health was still healthy. She was sitting on Dad’s neck, holding a small windmill in her hand. Her brother begged her to come down and change his ride on Dad’s neck. It was shameless, holding his father's head tightly and not letting go, coquettishly begging her brother to let her sit for a while.

She began to miss the sweet and sour pork tenderloin and boiled fish made by Grandma Manchun. Compared to the food made by her mother with almost no oil and salt, it is obvious that the deliciousness of these thick oil red sauce made by Grandma Manchun is more in line with her appetite.

She began to regret, Jiang Hua squatted down and hugged her knees loudly.

"Flowers? Are they flowers?"

A familiar voice rang from behind, and Jiang Hua rose sharply, then turned her head.

Do not know whether it is a dream or reality, dad actually stood behind her.

"Wow--"

Jiang Hua didn't even think about why her father appeared in this strange place. Her first reaction was to rush over, hug her father's waist tightly, and then howl, as if she wanted to cry all the grievances she suffered. .

"It's okay, everything is over."

When Jiang Liu saw that the locator he placed on his daughter showed that her position deviated from the normal track from the school to the Jiang family, he knew that his daughter should close the net, so according to the position shown on the locator, Jiang Liu followed her daughter Jiang Hua early.

He watched her eat the three small meat packs cherishly and watched her unable to buy mineral water because she spent all her money.

There must be some distress, but there are some things that must be painful to remember.

Jiang Liu didn't want Jiang Hua's mother's beautiful image to remain in his heart, so he used this cold-looking method to tear this bloody truth in Jiang Hua's heart.

"Dad, I want to go home, wow wow, I want brother, I want dad, I want to go home."

The little girl was crying with tears, Jiang Liu picked up the man, and then slowly walked towards the station.

*****

"One by one, why didn't the flower bloom come back with you?"

When it was time to eat, her daughter Jiang Hua had not returned home yet, and Yu Hongmei couldn't help but whisper.

"Ah, I thought she was back."

Jiang Ruyi raised his eyebrows. Was that mouse gall left behind?

"This child's heart is too wild, there is no one who can't go home after school, Hongmei, you have to teach that child."

Grandpa Jiang sat in the living room and shook the newspaper in his hand without raising his eyes.

"Dad, there might be some misunderstandings."

Yu Hongmei felt more and more wrong, and hurried to Loushan to take out his mobile phone, opened it, and found that there were seven or eight missed calls. These calls came from the same number, and Yu Hongmei quickly dialed back.

"Hello, what are you?"

"I'm Yu Hongmei, today you called me several times because I didn't receive the phone because the phone wasn't on my side. May I ask you?"

"Oh, you are Jiang Hua's mother. Why didn't Jiang Hua come to school today? Is he sick?"

...

After talking about what Yu Hongmei couldn't remember, she ran downstairs in a panic and dragged Jiang Ruyi's arm and asked sharply, "Isn't the flower bloom going to school with you, the teacher said she didn't go school."

In any case, it was a piece of flesh that fell from my body. I suddenly heard the news that my daughter was likely to have an accident.

"Ah, you hurt me."

Jiang Ruyi frowned and screamed.

"Yu Hongmei, what are you doing, you hurt one by one."

Mrs. Jiang stepped forward and patted the hand of Hongmei heavily, then lifted her granddaughter's sleeve distressedly, staring at Hongmei with a red mark on her arm.

Was beaten by the old lady, Yu Hongmei calmed down a lot.

"Mom, I didn't mean it. The teacher just called to say that Hua Hua didn't go to class, and that Hua Hua didn't go home so late. I was in a hurry..."

Yu Hongmei gave a face to explain.

"Huh, the stepmother really is the stepmother, and it doesn't hurt if it's not his own."

Old lady Jiang didn't care about the tow oil bottle brought by Hongmei, she cares more about Hongmei's attitude towards her baby granddaughter.

"It's gone, is it mad at us?"

Mr. Jiang is better than Mrs. Jiang. He has a strong reputation and does not want others to feel that they have treated the child brought by his daughter-in-law, so she pays more attention to Jiang Hua’s disappearance.

"The county town is so big, where can the child go, or you and Tiancheng will look around in a moment."

Grandpa Jiang feels that this new granddaughter is really coquettish, and his granddaughter has never run away from home like her.

"Look what to look for, I will wait until she feels cold and hungry and she will come back."

Mrs. Jiang glared at her husband and asked her son to look for the little girl. Wasn’t this a face for the mother and daughter? Not sure. This was what Yu Hongmei planned. The purpose was to make them value their mother and daughter.

What's more, Mrs. Jiang really doesn't believe that a seven-year-old girl can do such a thing as running away from home. Even if you leave, how far can you go? I'm afraid it will be sent back in a short time.

"Mom, why not call the police?"

Yu Hongmei summoned the courage to ask, this child did not go to school, it may not necessarily run by himself, or it may be an accident, thinking of the child who was abducted in the neighboring village, Yu Hongmei worried that his girl was also being trafficked Abducted.

"What police do you report, do you think our family's recent limelight isn't enough?"

Mrs. Jiang glared at the daughter-in-law, and the police came. When she saw the victim, she might have thought of the news not long ago. At that time, they had to go to the TV station again.

Because they have a lot to do with their mothers and daughters, the Jiang family is troubled.

Yu Hongmei always loves herself more because of Mrs. Jiang’s dislike. In the end, she chose to go to school with Jiang Tiancheng and searched around her home, but she still failed to return.

"Old Jiang, you said that the flower meeting wouldn't really happen. You blamed me. Yesterday I shouldn't scold her. How old is she? I should be more patient."

This cry is partly from the heart, partly from the ambition.

What Yu Hongmei portrayed in front of Jiang Tiancheng was such an image of a good wife and a good mother. Now that her daughter is missing, she should be extremely sad.

"It's still the police, and it's more reliable for the police to find children."

Jiang Tiancheng whispered to comfort his wife that they had been searching for more than an hour and had not seen the trace of Jiang Hua's child, so now they can only call the police.

"Humph."

Mrs. Jiang sneered.

"Grandma, still call the police."

Jiang Ruyi was a little guilty because she knew that all the fuse originated from her and good sister’s plans. If it were not for her to transfer her resentment towards Hongmei to the innocent Jiang Hua, she would not be unhappy with her classmates. He will not be scolded by Yu Hongmei, nor will he not go to school because he is wronged, so that no one can be found.

No matter how capricious, Jiang Ruyi is only a 13-year-old junior high school girl. Her heart is not vicious enough to watch a girl younger than her starve to death.

So when Grandma Jiang was displeased, Jiang Ruyi spoke.

"We are all kindhearted, unlike some people."

The old lady looked at her granddaughter affectionately, and then hummed, saying yes.

Yu Hongmei endured embarrassment and prepared to dial the landline alarm, but before she dialed 110, her cell phone rang.

"The flowers are here with me, and tomorrow I will come to discuss with you the transfer of my daughter's custody."

The call came from Jiang Liu, and his tone was very cold. Although the words in the discourse were consultations, his tone was very decisive. Obviously, his daughter’s custody was to be decided. This sentence is just a notice, not a discussion.

"Why, whose phone is it?"

Seeing his wife's face pale, Jiang Tiancheng wondered.

"It's my ex-husband, he said the flowers are blooming with him."

Yu Hongmei replied stunnedly, listening to the beep on the other end of the phone.

Do I transfer my daughter's custody?She has been married to Jiang Tiancheng, and in another eight months, she will have another pair of children.

It wasn’t that she didn’t hurt, but the child was too sensible and disobedient. Perhaps Jiang Liu was right, and the custody of the child could indeed be returned to him.

"Humph, you are really great for mother and daughter!"

Mrs. Jiang sneered, "The little ran directly to my dad's house, what happened, we gave her aggrieved, so she didn't read any books, and went back to her dad's house to complain? Such a child can't afford to be raised by the Jiang family ."

The family was so angry because of her behavior that she hadn't eaten dinner so late, that little girl was able to tolerate.

Mrs. Jiang does not like such selfish children, let alone that child is not the blood of their Jiang family.

"Since you leave, don't come back."

Mrs. Jiang glanced at her son's daughter-in-law: "It's a big deal. Let's give some money. Anyway, we can't afford that alimony."

"Ruby."

Grandpa Jiang stared at the sharp-eyed old lady, and then looked at his daughter-in-law and said warmly, "The child may not be suitable for the new home. You mother must also consider it for the child. Perhaps the child is more willing to be with her father and brother. life."

Obviously, the attitude of the old man is the same.

This time Yu Hongmei strengthened his previous thoughts, and it didn't matter if the daughter returned to Jiangliu.

*****

That night, Jiang Hua slept extraordinarily sweetly. She dreamed that a group of monsters wanted to eat her, and her dad and brother wore armor and went through the thorns to save her from the mouth of the monster.

She sat on her father's shoulders and watched the sun rise slowly from the east.

Its daybreak.

Jiang Hua rolled on the bed, the smell of the quilt in the sun, and the smell of the familiar washing powder.

She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the surrounding environment.

Not a dream, she really came back!
