pamper her

Chapter 20 Come here, brother hug

A taxi was waiting next to the station, Gu Yanci helped her up with half support and half hug, and unscrewed the bottle cap to let her drink water.

Li Mianmian dazedly took the water and took two gulps, then hugged her schoolbag and collapsed on the back seat.

Gu Yanci held a cold water bottle in one hand and put it on the side of her neck to cool her down. He patted the back of the driver's seat forward with the other hand, and whispered, "Master, can I borrow your phone, please?"

"Oh, all right."

This trip was a big order, and the driver didn't care much about the call fee, so he immediately took out his mobile phone and handed it to him.

Gu Yanci dialed Lan Qingwan's phone number, intending to report her safety.

The couple had been in a hurry for half the morning, and they were finally relieved to hear that Li Mianmian was fine.

When she received the call, Lan Qingwan even broke down and cried: "I thought I lost her again... If she lost her again, I really don't know how to live... Thank you Xiaoyan, really , thank you, you are the savior of our family..."

"Don't say that, Aunt Lan." Gu Yanci comforted, "Mianmian is fine, she just fell asleep and sat past the stop. Even if I didn't come, she would be able to catch the next bus in a while."

"Our parents are not doing well, so it's better if you care about her... I will ask Mianmian to recognize you as my brother when I come back." Lan Qingwan seemed to be a little delirious, and said with a sob, "Let her give you love in the future." Pension."

"..." Gu Yanci didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Aunt Lan, you are too serious... I always regarded her as my own sister. You helped take care of my mother before, but I couldn't repay you..."

"you……"

What else did Lan Qingwan want to say, but Li Changfeng reprimanded him from the side: "What nonsense are you talking about! Xiaoyan is only two years older than Mianmian, why should he be so old? You should be sober!"

Then the phone was snatched by Li Changfeng:
"Hey, Xiaoyan, don't listen to your Aunt Lan, she's talking nonsense. She just couldn't get out more than ten years ago, and her mind is not clear. Then what, you and Mianmian will come back directly, we have already invited the teacher I'm on vacation. Auntie and I are waiting at the gate of the community, you just take that taxi, and Uncle Li will settle the fare for you later."

"Okay." Gu Yan replied, "We'll be there in a while."

After hanging up the phone, he turned around and saw that Li Mianmian had recovered and was staring blankly at himself.

"Better?" Gu Yanci squeezed the bottle, "Hold it yourself."

Li Mianmian raised her hand to cover the mineral water bottle, and murmured, "Did I make you worry..."

"It's okay." Gu Yanci said with a smile, "It's normal to stand up after sleeping, no one blames you."

Li Mianmian pursed her lips tightly and lowered her eyes guiltily.

"Just remember to bring your mobile phone next time." Gu Yanci said, "Don't let us not find you."

"Yes." Li Mianmian nodded, "I remember."

After a moment of silence, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, brother, how did you find me?"

"A simple junior high school math problem." Speaking of this, Gu Yanci's expression became meaningful, "Come on, it happens that my brother passed you in the exam, let's see if you remember."

Li Mianmian: "..."

If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have asked!
"It is known that Li Mianmian took the No. 07 bus at 30:4 in the morning. The speed of this bus is about 4 kilometers per hour. The parentheses can be regarded as uniform speed movement. The distance was about 800 meters, Li Mianmian got off the bus at [-]:[-] a.m., and asked, how many stations did she pass by at this time?"

After finishing speaking, Gu Yanci said to himself: "It seems too simple, elementary school students should be able to do it, right?"

It was indeed a very simple question. Li Mianmian had already figured out the answer in his mind as soon as he finished talking about the question.

"That's why it's so simple to write a question." She felt a little uncomfortable, "But in reality, the speed of the bus is not uniform, it takes time to stop at the station, and the distance between every two stations is not always 800 meters...you guys You must have been looking for me for a long time..."

"It hasn't been long." Gu Yanci said with a smile, "Anyway, there are only a few stations nearby, and if you come along, can't you be found?"

Li Mianmian didn't speak for a while.

"What's wrong?" Gu Yanci rubbed her head, "You still blame yourself?"

Li Mianmian bit her lower lip and said in a low voice, "I heard my mother crying on the phone."

"...Hmm." Gu Yanci withdrew her hand, "She's just a little anxious."

Li Mianmian: "She must have remembered me when I was a child."

It was rare to hear her talk about her childhood, Gu Yanci asked calmly, "What happened when I was a child?"

In the past, he didn't inquire about Li Mianmian's experience very much. After all, he didn't need to think about it to know that it would not be a good memory.

She is still so young, it would be best if she could forget about it, why bother to take a look at her scars all the time.

Later, when he chatted with Lan Qingwan by chance, he realized that even they didn't know much about Li Mianmian's past.

It stands to reason that at her age, after being wronged and returning to the arms of her biological parents, she would usually want to confide in her, and would like to tell her parents what kind of hardship she had suffered.

But she rarely mentioned these.

At first, Lan Qingwan thought that she and her daughter were not close enough, but after spending more than a year together day and night, the mother and daughter are already close, and Li Mianmian would be happy to share with her any interesting things that happened to her at school.

Only in the past, every time she mentioned it, she spoke very vaguely, and just took a few words along.

Gu Yanci remembered that when Li Mianmian told herself that she still had a name called "Wood", she said that she was afraid of making her parents unhappy, so she didn't like to mention it in front of her parents.

So he thought, if Li Mianmian is willing to start someday, he will try his best to guide her so that she can say as much as she wants.

"When I was young...in fact, I can't remember many things clearly." Li Mianmian recalled, "I was too young at that time, and I just knew that the parents who raised me were not my real parents. I was bought by them. Because they can't have children."

"Well." Gu Yanci asked warmly, "Then how are they treating you?"

"... I don't remember." Li Mianmian touched his neck, "Anyway, when I can remember, they had already had a child, and it was still a son. Then I was handed over to the grandmother in the country to raise me. Once I secretly heard They chatted and said that if they couldn't afford a son at that time, they would never have bought a girl to raise."

Gu Yanci probably knew that Li Mianmian was raised by an old lady, but he didn't expect the reason to be like this.

He felt that his fists were stiff, and he continued to ask: "Then how does this old grandma treat you?"

"Well... I don't know how to say it."

Li Mianmian thought for a while, and said slowly: "If I treat myself as a child that no one wants, then she should treat me well, at least she will give me food and a room to sleep in. But if To compare with her own grandson..."

She suddenly showed a very ugly smile: "That should be the difference between humans and stray dogs."

"..."

For a moment, Gu Yanci felt it was difficult to breathe.

"Otherwise, why would she randomly name me Wood." Li Mianmian lowered her head, her eyes were a little hot, and said hoarsely, "Because it really looks like a rotten, smelly log."

"Yeah." Gu Yanci touched the back of her head, "Let's not think about it anymore."

He opened his arms: "Come here, brother hug."

Li Mianmian turned her head and buried her face in his arms.

The two were quiet all the way, and when they arrived at the gate of the community, Li Mianmian suddenly said again: "Actually, I didn't feel wronged before."

Gu Yanci patted her on the back: "Huh?"

"I didn't feel wronged, because I never regarded myself as the same as her own grandson, and I also regarded myself as a piece of wood. After all, I have no blood relationship, so I didn't feel sad at all." She whispered, "But then my parents When I got it back, I realized that I also had..."

There was a slight pause in the voice.

Li Mianmian suppressed the soreness of her nose, and tried her best to keep her tone calm: "So that day, I felt a little wronged. After spending time with you for a long time, when I think about the past, I feel more and more wronged."

"Well, that's great." Gu Yanci took a slow breath and said with a smile, "This shows that we, Mumu, are living happily now."

As soon as the voice fell, the car stopped.

When paying, Gu Yanci saw the driver give Li Mianmian a complicated look.

He didn't care, he slightly hooked his lips, opened the car door and let Li Mianmian get out.

Li's father and Li's mother were standing on the side of the road waiting for them. When they saw them get out of the car, Li Changfeng walked towards the driver's seat while taking out his pockets. Just as he was about to ask how much it was, the car had already driven away.

Here, Li Mianmian rushed towards Lan Qingwan as soon as her feet touched the ground, and there was a bit of crying in her voice: "Mom, I will definitely remember to bring my mobile phone..."

"It's okay." Lan Qingwan couldn't stop the tears she had been coaxed back by Li Changfeng just now, "We won't take the bus anymore, let your father take you off... No, mom and dad will take you off together..."
-
When he got home, Gu Yanci pressed the hands-free button on the landline to dial the phone. After connecting, he cut to the chase and said, "Come with me to buy something."

"What's the matter?" Yan Shinan's loud voice came out, "You need me to accompany you when you buy something?"

After two seconds of silence, Gu Yanci said, "Didn't you ask me to buy a mobile phone before?"

"Yes." Yan Shinan suddenly became excited, "Oh my god, have you finally figured it out?"

"Yeah." Gu Yan replied, "The telecommunications business office near your house, can you recharge your phone bill and give you a mobile phone?"

"Any business hall here is fine, but why do you go there to buy? The quality is not good." Yan Shinan said, "You come to the Digital City directly to find me, my buddy will give you a discount."

This stick went to a vocational high school after junior high school, and he didn't study hard. He went to the digital city to help his father sell mobile phones during the holidays. He is also half an expert in digital.

But Gu Yanci does not need technical guidance in this area.

"No need." He said indifferently, "The quality doesn't matter, as long as you can make calls and send text messages."

"Hey, I'll go—" Yan Shinan clicked his tongue, "Look at you so sloppy."

"Okay." Gu Yanci said that he was about to hang up the phone, "Since every business hall has them, I will buy them directly nearby."

"Hey, don't, don't!" Yan Shinan said hastily, "Go to my house and wait, I'll go over and take a look with you, don't be tricked."

Gu Yanci laughed: "Okay, thanks."

After buying the mobile phone, he immediately saved Li Mianmian's number, and set up a shortcut key on her mobile phone, long press to call him directly.

Since then, Li Mianmian didn't make many phone calls, but he liked to send him text messages whenever he had nothing to do. In just one summer vacation, he developed the habit of never leaving his mobile phone.

Fortunately, she came first in the final exam this time. Even if the two parents saw her playing with her mobile phone, they didn't say much about her.

But after school started, Gu Yanci stopped replying to her messages during the day, and only replied a few words every night after self-study.

So Li Mianmian quit the phone very easily.

Not long after the end of the first monthly exam, Teacher Song took advantage of the class meeting to share a message - there will be a cultural evening in late November to celebrate the [-]th anniversary of the school.

Since the third and third grades are graduating classes, there is no time to rehearse, so the program is mainly prepared by the other four grades.

It is said that it is the fourth grade, but in fact the whole high school is not interested in this kind of thing. After all, the pressure of their college entrance examination is much greater than the pressure of the high school entrance examination.

On the other hand, the junior high school students were at the age of fun, and after hearing the news, everyone was extremely excited.

Using this class meeting, everyone finally discussed the format of the program and decided to rehearse a stage play. The script is the well-known "Snow White".

When the class was about to end, Teacher Song held the book between his hands and said, "Although I said I won't participate in this matter, you still have to find a beautiful woman to act in this script, right?"

Then her eyes fell on Li Mianmian, and she said jokingly: "I think Li Mianmian is quite suitable."
