The light in the living room went out, but the light in the kitchen was on.

Daddy Pippi just came back with a bowl of leftovers and a pack of mustard greens, chewing vigorously with his cheeks.

She suddenly felt warm. What a realistic world. Although the home is small and the furniture is dilapidated, the lights are dim in order to save electricity. But this is the home where Pippi has lived for twenty years.

"Pippi, come back so late?" Hearing the movement, Pippi looked up and looked a little surprised, "Why did you shave a bald head?"

"The activities initiated by the unit, I volunteered to support cancer patients."

"Oh." He continued to eat.

Pippi noticed a piece of sand cloth wrapped around his father's hand, and asked quickly, "Dad, what's wrong with your hand?"

"I accidentally cut it when I was working, a small injury, it's okay."

"Did you go to the hospital? Be careful of infection."

"There are band-aids at home, just one stick." He said gruffly, "How troublesome it is to go to the hospital, it's a long time waiting in line."

"You are not busy, you are afraid of queuing." She lost her mouth and regretted it. My father can't make money by setting up a street stall, and the business of repairing toilets has not been as good as before. In the past, the BB machine kept ringing, and it cost 70 yuan to repair it. Nowadays, it takes only one or two weeks to receive a call. Once a family’s toilet was blocked, and it took a long time to find out that it was only a toothpick. The employer refused to pay. Pippi’s father became annoyed and said a few swear words. The family’s son was unhappy and the two of them hit stand up. Pippi's father is old and frail, and he is not an opponent. Pippi's mother kept blaming her husband for failing, and so many people were laid off to do business, so why didn't he get a big son? As a result, the whole family followed him frugally.

Fortunately, my father's nerves are as big as Pippi, and he didn't think about it much, but said: "It's too late, go to sleep."

The sound of TV came from the bedroom. Pippi loves to watch TV and sleeps late. Pippi opened the refrigerator, trying to find a bottle of soda for herself. The refrigerator was empty, except for a pack of cabbage and a dozen packs of Fuling mustard. Not even an egg.

She couldn't help taking a breath: "Dad, I've paid this month's salary. Isn't the family so poor? You need to eat mustard."

"Yeah." He wiped out the rice in the bowl. "Your mother bought a half-year card for the beauty club. She said that everyone in the unit bought it. Collective purchases are 30% off. fell shame."

Pippi took out his wallet. She didn't have a lot of money left, so she turned out three hundred yuan and gave it to her father, and then handed him a dragon card: "This is my deposit. If the cost at home is too tight, please take it out and use it. The password is 3027."

Kari saved Pippi's dowry money. They are accumulated bit by bit.

After that, she stepped into the back room and turned on the light. Pippi's mother got out of the bed in fright: "Pippi?"

She went straight to the closet, opened her mother's purse, found the beauty card and threw it in front of her: "Mom, you can withdraw this card tomorrow. The family is now difficult, the whole family is saving, please support."

Mama Pippi's face turned purple after a while: "It's not much money! Let me return? How shameless!"

"Your face is more important than the lives of your family?"

"Ouch, Miss, you are really filial. Look at the second child of Aunt Cui's family, earning a lot of money outside, give her two thousand dollars a month, and also ask for part-time work to cook. To the boss of Menlong's family, they will follow you A student who graduated from school, now that he thinks his house is small, he gave her mother 300,000 yuan to buy a house in cash. I didn't expect too much from you. You still care about me?"

Without saying anything, Pippi took out the phone and handed it to her: "Mom, or you can call the boss of Long's family now and tell her that you are willing to be her mother, and ask her if you want you to live with her. She is willing, please!"

Pippi’s mother's voice suddenly rose eight degrees: "Ha! You think you can earn a bit of money, don’t you? Mom, I want you to raise it? Mom, I can’t afford to raise myself? You stare at Jialin, stare at Jialin, and see that you are also very clever and clever on weekdays. Where did you go? If you marry him, wouldn't it be a flavourful and spicy one and live in a garden house? Even if you don’t get married, you’re not guilty of treating him as an enemy. One more friend is one more way. People Jialin is a good boy, and his business is not benevolent. He is thinking of you when he goes abroad. Tell you, this money is not yours, yes Jia Lin sent it to me."

Her face suddenly turned pale: "Jia Lin? Will Jia Lin send you money?"

"I think you didn’t reply to the letter he wrote to you, so I wrote him one back and talked about the situation at home. To tell you the truth, your dad wouldn’t let me tell you. Our house used to be a state-owned asset. Now they have to be transferred to individuals, even though they are not commercial houses, they have to pay tens of thousands. Jialin is abroad, and the dollar is one to seven compared to the renminbi. People who pluck a hair are thicker than our waist..."

"Mom, how much did you charge him?"

"Not a lot, two thousand..."

"Dollar?"

"Then it can still be RMB?"

"Mom, don't you know that he is just a student? He is still working? He has a family and a wife, and he also has parents to respect. Living abroad is so difficult. What kind of poor do you call him? Are you crazy to be a mother-in-law? Give it to me, I'll send it back to him!" She couldn't help her voice being high.

Pippi’s mother spread her hands together: “It’s been spent early. Last time your dad said that many people had started trading in stocks, and he wanted to try it. I gave him more than half of it. I don’t know that he is so unlucky now. It's trapped."

Seeing Pippi's face turned darker and darker, almost menacing, Pippi's mother was a little frightened, took a few breaths, and whispered: "Forget it, I'll go back with this beauty card tomorrow, right? You can't do it again. My family yelled at me. I'm your mother anyway, it's not easy to give birth to you!"

Pippi gritted her teeth and suffocated her stomach, and finally chose not to care about her mother: "Sorry, mother, I had a bad attitude just now. Where is the letter from Jialin? What else did he say?"

"Just sent a check and asked me not to tell you. He also said that he and Tian Xin knew about it, so let us use it with confidence. I also said that when I was a child, I used to eat together at our house, and my grandma and I hurt He, he honored me and grandma."

Pippi walked out of the bedroom, feeling that there was water in her mother's words, then turned around and asked, "Are you sure he only sent two thousand?"

"Um... um... I sent it twice, two thousand each time."

Pippi was so angry that he could not speak, ran to the bathroom to wash his face, and hugged the blanket angrily on the sofa in the living room.

That night, for some reason, she dreamed of Helan Jingting. His shadow was all over his head. In the moonlight, in the flowers, in the shade. Surrounded by a **** air. At first she thought it was Jialin, but the man in the dream had been wearing sunglasses and a linen shirt that only Helan liked to wear.

It's not Jialin, because this kind of straightforward and unprepared intimacy has never existed between her and Jialin.

The next morning, grandma bought it and came back early, and Pippi asked about the song "Parasite".

"What "Parasitic Grass"?"

She hummed to her grandmother: "Li Jiuqu has long eyebrows, and I am busy seeing Doucha cover my nose. Counting the amount of stretching in the morning, peeping at the white clothes and shoes, looking up and down...."

"Oh, that song." Grandma nodded, "I remember. You used to sing when you were three years old. Didn't the kindergarten teacher teach you this?"

"No...no?"

"I thought you learned from a kindergarten. Do you remember Mr. Tian from the kindergarten? She lives on the third floor of the front building. Isn't her daughter Xiaoqing your primary school classmate? I ran into Tian when I was shopping for food yesterday. Teacher, people are still asking about you."

Pippi immediately called Teacher Tian.

"...No. I have never taught you this song. I have never heard it." Teacher Tian said affirmatively.

"Do you remember it wrong? This is more than ten years ago."

"No. The year I took you was my first year at work. It was serious and positive. So I have a deep impression of every child."

"Then I... was there anything strange when I was a kid?"

"I think about it--" she said, "there is one more fun thing. Do you remember Tao Jialin?"

"remember--"

"When you were young, you two were very good. The only thing is that you used to nickname him Xiao Henan. Jialin's mother is from Henan. He was very upset that you called him that, so he would fight you for that. After a fight, you hit his mouth swollen. Jialin’s mother heard about this and thought your mother had an opinion on her, so she asked me what’s wrong. I went to class to criticize you. . I said, "Pippi, you can’t give the kids a nickname, the teacher will be punished to stand next time you call it that way." You still call it, the more you call it, the more vigorous it is. Report it to your mother. Your mother scared you and said that if you call that way, she will send you to the Public Security Bureau. You are terrified, so you stopped calling."

Xiao Henan... Pippi just felt his ears hum. Some things in my heart collapsed suddenly.

Before going to work, Pippi went to the bank and exchanged his deposit for four thousand dollars to Jialin. At the same time, I left him a text message: "Thank you for your help." Seeing that the more than 20,000 yuan in the passbook disappeared in an instant, Pippi was so painful that he could not breathe, and shouted in his heart: "My Dowry!"
