My bamboo horse is a bit fierce

Chapter 5 If Destined to Meet (1)

Today's weather seems to be exceptionally good, the sun is warm, shining on the small yard in front of the house.There was a gust of breeze, and the whole heart wanted to run wildly with it.

In the past, Lin Xia would definitely take a few friends to the mountains and forests to play wildly in the alleys.

However, today the wind blew her to the point where she wanted to cry.

Last night, my uncle came back with news that my father was gone.

At that time, she was lying on the inner side of the bed with a ball of quilt and fell asleep, and then she heard grandma's wailing in a daze.

Rubbing her sleepy eyes and sitting up, Lin Xia obediently raised her hand to wipe away the tears on grandma's face.

"Good granddaughter, my dear granddaughter..." Grandma hugged Lin Xia into her arms, and then sobbed softly, "My son who is so blessed will never come back. What will you do in the future? Do it..."

I can't come back, what do you mean?Did you go with someone else like your mother?

12-year-old Lin Xia was dumbfounded listening to her grandma's intermittent narration.Gradually, she realized that her father had gone to another world.

From now on, he can no longer bring her delicious food back, he can no longer take her to the amusement park in the town, and he can no longer accompany her.

Thinking of this, Lin Xia began to cry uncontrollably.

……

On the threshold of the small courtyard, Lin Xia sat quietly, looking at the sky with her hands on her chin. She wondered, would her father be watching her there too?

Uncle Lin comforted the old mother for a while in the room, and when he walked out of the room, he saw Lin Xia's lifeless and thin back.

Oh, what a poor child.Not long after she was born, her cruel mother disliked that their family had no money, so she ran away with others.Now, the child is still so young, and her father, who has been working outside all the year round, is gone...

However, fortunately, that family in the city is considered a caring family.Otherwise, the family lacked the backbone of labor, and he really didn't know what to do for a while.

Thinking of the news from the city, Uncle Lin's expression improved a little.However, looking at the quiet and sad look of his formerly lively and cheerful niece, he suddenly felt a little guilty.

After all, he was the one who couldn't help her.

"Xiao Xia, come in, grandma and I have something to say to you." Although he couldn't bear it, Uncle Lin interrupted her meditation.

Lin Xia stood up, patted the dusty clothes behind her, and followed Uncle Lin into the house.

Walking into the back room, she saw her grandma's eyes were red, obviously she had been crying all night.So, she obediently walked to grandma's side, stroking her somewhat rickety back.

Grandma Lin looked at her sensible and well-behaved granddaughter, and thought of the decision she and her eldest son made just now, and suddenly felt like a knife was piercing her heart.

"Xiao Xia, your father had an accident at the construction site yesterday. He... actually died to save someone." Uncle Lin glanced at the old mother who was immersed in grief at the moment, and finally said the words.

Lin Xia, who was a little sluggish, was startled suddenly, it turned out... Dad actually doesn't have to die.

Her heart was cold, and she couldn't tell what it was like.

Her father saved others, but he left her forever.

He left her...forever...

Tears were left uncontrollably, wet all over the face.

Uncle Lin observed Lin Xia's expression, and then continued: "Xiao Xia, the gentleman who was rescued in the city yesterday said that in order to thank your father for saving his life, they plan to let you go to school in the city and raise you you."

Lin Xia's tear-stained eyelashes trembled slightly.

In the city, so far away, such a strange word.

She doesn't want to leave...
