Chapter 26
At noon on Saturday, after Song Xici packed up, he took a taxi to the Huo family's compound. Huo Chengying and Zhao Mengjiao were waiting at the gate of the compound. When they saw him get off the car, they rushed up to meet him.
Zhao Mengjiao wanted to pull him with a smile on her face, but because she was too unfamiliar, she changed to tugging at the corner of her clothes halfway, grinning her lips, and said happily: "You are here, hurry up, let's go in quickly, your father is making soup at home , it's almost ready, we're all waiting for you."
Huo Chengying followed behind Zhao Mengjiao, stared at Song Xici with wide eyes, twisted the clothes with her fingers, but dared not say a word.
Song Xici went over to hold her hand, took two steps and hugged the little girl again, and asked in a low voice, "Are you healed?"
"Okay." After Huo Chengying finished answering, she carefully glanced at Zhao Mengjiao, seeing that she was still smiling, she reached out and hugged Song Xici's neck.
The little girl didn't talk much in front of Zhao Mengjiao and Huo Ruida, her personality seemed to have completely changed, she was extremely introverted.
He followed Zhao Mengjiao's footsteps and walked all the way to the innermost part of the community. Although it is far from the gate, it is one of the few prime locations in the community. It is quiet at night, and the greenery and building spacing are better than the buildings outside.
Huo's house is a small two-story villa. It looks very luxurious on the outside, but there are not many decent pieces of furniture in the house. The sofa looks like it was found in a second-hand market, and it doesn't fit in with the shiny marble floor.
Zhao Mengjiao seemed ashamed of the situation in the house. After entering the room, she pointed at the sofa at a loss, "Sit down, I'll help you dad."
Song Xici didn't notice anything wrong with the sofa or the old TV cabinet at home. Her attention was all attracted by the figure of Huorida stewing soup in the open kitchen.
It turned out that this was his biological father. Although his back was thin and small, he would make soup for his family.
"Brother." Seeing him staring at the kitchen in a daze, Huo Chengying quickly pulled his arm, "Brother, don't believe what they say later."
Zhao Mengjiao glanced outside, Huo Chengying immediately stopped talking, but her words had completely shattered his fantasy.
That's right, if they were really a pair of warm parents, Huo Chengying wouldn't be covered in injuries, she wouldn't be hiding outside in pajamas and a tattered raincoat on rainy days, and Huo Chengfeng wouldn't be so dark when he met the Song family. thin.
But these illusions created by them made Song Xici obsessed, and he didn't even want to expose it.
Huo Ruida wore heat-resistant gloves, and brought the casserole seafood soup stewed on the fire to the table with a smile on his face. Two people came to greet him with smiles on their faces, "Xiao Ci, come quickly, it's time to eat."
Compared to Zhao Mengjiao's embarrassment and discomfort, Huo Ruida was much more at ease, as if they had never been apart, and said, "This is my father's hot pot. Try it, it's better than the high-end hotel outside."
A white porcelain bowl was pushed in front of Song Xici, the mushroom and chicken soup inside was clear and delicious, Song Xici was urged to drink two bowls by Huo Ruida, and his heart became even more complicated.
"It's delicious." Huo Ruida said somewhat complacently: "Eat some more rice, with this shredded pork in sauce, it's delicious."
Song Xici's expression gradually softened, "Thank you, Dad."
This sentence made Huo Ruida smile all over his face, and he agreed several times, and hurriedly put a lot of vegetables into the bowl for him, "Hurry up and eat, our Xiaoci is really tall, haha..."
"Xiaoci, Dad wants to ask you something." Huo Ruida finished laughing, with a embarrassed expression on his face, as if he didn't want to say it, but he had to say it because of helplessness.
Song Xici was very calm, he ate his food bite by bite, and asked in a calm tone, "What's the matter?"
"Just last time, Mr. Song didn't agree. So what, give us a sum of money? He said he would remit the money right away. It's been so many days, why hasn't there been any news?" Huo Ruida looked anxious, wishing Song Xici It looks like I gave the money now.
But Zhao Mengjiao, with an embarrassing look on her face, "What are you talking about to the child, can Xiao Ci influence President Song's decision?"
She paused, and then said: "It's because your father is not up to date, he can't make any money, Xiaoci is fine, and he lives well in the Song family, but what about Yingying, your unbelievable father, She doesn't even have to wear a new dress."
Zhao Mengjiao started to cry as she spoke.
Song Xici put down his job, "Which time was it last time? Was it the time you said I kidnapped children and kidnapped Yingying?"
He was still smiling, with a calm tone, as if he was not angry, "Father, when can you change your habit of selling children for money?"
"What did you say!" The expression on Huorida's face changed, and he said angrily, "I'm your father, how dare you say that about me?"
After finishing speaking, he wanted to make a move towards Song Xici.
Zhao Mengjiao immediately stopped him, pushed him aside, and cried even louder, "Xiaoci, you must think that we are blind to money and don't know what is good or bad, but we really have nothing to do , your father and my family are both poor. In the early years, we owed a whole lot of debt to support Huo Chengfeng. Now that we have Yingying, your father and I have nothing to do..."
Song Xici was given a headache by her crying, but he couldn't believe a word of her crying now. He should have known what kind of virtue they were. Since he could say that he kidnapped and trafficked Huo Chengying, how could it be just that now? It's all my own fault for wanting to get in touch with him, for still thinking about their family affection.
"Give me the card number, and I will give you a sum of money, but if you call Yingying again, not only my brother, but you will never get a penny from me." Song Xici casually took a napkin, Throw it to Horida, "write it."
Huo Ruida was still cursing, but he didn't stop, took a pen and copied his card number to Song Xici, "Remember to call the money quickly, if you don't call, I will go to your school to make trouble , Let's see what face you have then."
Song Xici ignored Huo Ruida's yelling, and turned to comfort Huo Chengying, "Don't worry, my brother will definitely come to pick you up when he becomes an adult."
Huo Chengying curled up in a ball on the seat, holding Song Xici's hand tightly, staring at Huo Ruida in panic and vigilance, when she heard Song Xici say this, she wanted to follow immediately in a hurry, but the words came out of her mouth side, but only said one sentence, "I'll wait for brother, thank you brother."
Huo Ruida looked at the two impatiently, and said with a pooh: "Damn it, I really think of myself as my brother."
"Huo Ruida, what nonsense are you talking about? Xiao Ci is Yingying's elder brother." Zhao Mengjiao retorted sharply, then came over and hugged Huo Chengying, "Don't worry, we will take good care of Yingying. When you become an adult, we will take care of you. Live together as a family."
Song Xici ignored Zhao Mengjiao's overtures, and only asked them to return Huo Chengying's phone and watch. It was getting late, and he had to go to Song Yanting's office to make up lessons in the afternoon.
Huo Ruida and Zhao Mengjiao didn't come out, Huo Chengying took Song Xici's hand and sent him outside, her little hand was sweating so hard, but she let him go, "Goodbye, brother."
Song Xici also waved to her.
When he returned to Song Yanting's office, Song Yanting was not there, but Huo Chengfeng was doing his homework on the desk inside.
Huo Chengfeng usually stays with Tong Xiaoshan at home on weekends, and occasionally comes over with him from Monday to Friday. Now that he appears here, maybe Tong Xiaoshan will come with him too.
"Where have you been?" Huo Chengfeng raised his head from the exercise booklet, "Mother came to deliver food to you just now, but you are not here, she and elder brother brought the food to the cafeteria, have you eaten yet?"
"I've already eaten." When Song Xici saw Huo Chengfeng, he thought of the Huo family's parents. After living with such people for more than ten years, it was rare for Huo Chengfeng to still be a good boy with good roots.
"You went to Huo's house?" Huo Chengfeng put down his pen and looked at him inexplicably.
Song Xici paused for a moment, and felt that there was no need to deceive Huo Chengfeng, so he nodded. Unexpectedly, Song Yanting and Tong Xiaoshan just came in at this time, and happened to hear Huo Chengfeng's question.
So the two people at the door said in unison, "Have you gone to Huo's house?"
Song Xici couldn't hide it even if he changed his words until now, so he could only admit it.
Tong Xiaoshan was holding the insulated lunch box, with a dissatisfied expression on her face, "What are you doing at Huo's house? Do you mean that you are dissatisfied with the family and want to go back?"
"No, Mom." Song Xici endured the discomfort in his heart and explained, "I was just worried about my sister, so I went to see her."
"Tell me about this kind of thing next time, and I'll ask Gao She to accompany you, you know?" Song Yanting knew that he couldn't let go of his sister, so he wasn't trying to persuade him to stay away from Huo's house, but for safety reasons, he didn't want Song Xi to resign See them alone.
When Tong Xiaoshan heard that Song Yanting had a different point of view from hers, she said coldly, "I should have exchanged directly and left you in the Song family. Your heart is not here, and I'm afraid you're still here because you're afraid of going back to suffer, right? It's really the same as that shameless couple."
"Mom, where did your resentment come from?" Song Yanting was very troubled by the current family situation. The originally harmonious and happy family did not know why it became like this.
"Don't you know by now that the whole school has spread the word, and the Song family's face will be completely humiliated by him." Tong Xiaoshan was furious, and scolded: "For more than ten years, I have devoted myself to his teaching , I didn't expect him to grow up like this. Fighting, puppy love, slandering his classmates at will, even bullying Xiaofeng, let him serve him tea, water and food, and even find someone to beat him. If you enter your own home, you will be offended.”
Tong Xiaoshan became more and more excited as she spoke, and finally poked Song Xici's nose with her fingertips, "I thought you were a kind and good boy, but I didn't expect you to be a ungrateful beast."
"Mom, you misunderstood Xiaoci."
Before Song Xici could react and wanted to explain for himself, Huo Chengfeng was already defending him.
"The people who beat me didn't even know who brought it. The person who told Xiaoci that it was Shao Qi just couldn't find it. This Cheng Xiuhe can testify that I was willing to feed me. Sleepy, I take the initiative."
Huo Chengfeng said sincerely, "Mom, don't blame Xiao Ci, it's really not his fault, if you want to blame it, blame me, I shouldn't have come back."
The author says:
In fact, the psychology of Song Song and Xiaofeng is like this,
Song Song felt that her mother treated her badly because she misunderstood her. She wanted to clear up the misunderstanding and go back to the past, thinking that she was still the Song Song her mother liked before;
Xiaofeng thinks that Song Song should be a member of the Huo family, and he should live the life that the Huo family should live. The mother's love is his own, and the elder brother's love should also be his own. Everything about Song Song should be his own. of;
