Chapter 43 The Bottom Line

In summer, days are long and nights are short.

No matter how long the day is, there will be evening, when dusk comes, tired birds return to their nests, cattle and sheep return to the fence, people who have worked hard for a day also get off work, and those who do farm work stop work one after another.

Dad Le looked at his cell phone when he got off work, and shook his head helplessly. Lele's little padded jacket didn't call him for two days, and he didn't know where to go to play and forget the days. When there is a good guy at home, it's a treasure. The girl of the wild horse, he deeply felt what it means to be worried and entangled. The girl is bold, and he can't accept it.

Confused in my heart, I got on my electric tricycle and went home.

Zhou Qiufeng came back from the field and washed his feet first in the ditch outside. Seeing the old lady looking outside the house, she couldn't help asking curiously, "Mom, what are you looking for?"

"I haven't heard Lele speak for several days, it feels so weird." Grandma Zhou looked at Le's family and was full of wonder. Lele came here on the Dragon Boat Festival, and she didn't see the child in the following days, nor did she see the child. I don't know where to go.

"You'll know if you ask Big Brother Le." Zhou Qiufeng replied casually. She is busy transporting fertilizer to the fields these days. She leaves early and returns late, and is rarely at home. Moreover, she has been thinking about what Lele said she was looking for a new mother. It's okay to be a little concerned about external affairs.

"Yeah." Grandma Zhou replied and wanted to turn around and go home, when she heard the car crashing on the ground, she looked at the village road and saw an old tricycle coming back, she immediately walked to Lejia: "Yueqing is back, I'll ask him where Xiao Lele has gone."

Zhou Qiufeng opened his mouth to say, "Go, let's go." She looked up and saw that Yueqing was about to arrive at Le's house.

Le Dad drove the car outside the house and saw Grandma Zhou coming straight to him, braked quickly, and called out "Auntie".

"Hey, Yueqing, where is your family Lele? Today, I wanted to ask her to help me thread the needles, but I couldn't find anyone for a long time." Grandma Zhou replied with a smile. There is a saying that the mother-in-law looks at the son-in-law, and the more she looks, the more she likes it. , so did she, the more she looked at Yueqing, the more she felt that she was a good match for her daughter.

"Auntie, you are looking for Lele. Lele is not at home. She went into the mountain to study medicinal materials." Dad Le is an honest person, so he can say anything.

"what?"

Two surprised screams sounded at the same time, one was from Grandma Zhou and the other was from Zhou Qiufeng. Both mother and daughter were taken aback by the answer.

Grandma Zhou almost jumped up: "Oh my God, Lele went to the mountains again? Why haven't you come back, it's getting dark."

Dad Le heard two exclamations and saw Zhou Qiufeng outside Zhou's house. Thinking of Lele's words, the tips of his ears burned. He was shocked by Grandma Zhou's panicked tone, so he quickly retracted his eyes and replied: "Le Lechu I went into the mountains on the sixth day, and I have been there for several days."

His girl lied to him to play, saying that she would go there for three or five days, and it was the fourth day. No one had seen the shadows yet. The girl didn't speak anything, and Le Dad was very depressed.

"You went into the mountains on the sixth day of the first lunar month? Today, the tenth day of the first lunar month, you have been there for so many days? Did you call you?" Grandma Zhou was very anxious.

"Two days ago, I called and said I'm going to a place with no signal. I won't be able to contact you for a few days. Auntie, don't worry, Lele knows what she's going to do. She will take care of herself."

As a father, Le Le is also worried, and he has to appease Grandma Zhou. The neighbors care about Lele because it is the kindness of others, and it makes no sense to let others accompany him.

"What are you talking about? A man is just careless. You don't even think about it. How old is Lele, you are willing to let her go to the mountains alone. How can you tell me? It's really worrying..."

Listening to Grandma Zhou's scolding, Dad Le listened honestly, and when she finished speaking, he murmured: "Auntie, you know, Lele is stubborn, what she decides is all nine cows. If she couldn't pull it back, she said I didn't agree, she ran away in the middle of the night, didn't call me, didn't tell me where I was, how dare I stop her."

"This is really something Xiao Lele can do. When Lele calls back, you have to rush her back. The old forest in the deep mountains is not safe..."

Grandma Zhou nagged again before she went home. When she went to bed at night, she talked about Yueqing's difficulty and Lele's understanding, etc., saying that she decided to be a matchmaker, and when Lele came back, she would Go to ask who is the new mother in Lele's picture, in any case, she also has the cheek to ask the woman's meaning, and then falls back to sleep.

Her old man slept soundly, but Zhou Qiufeng couldn't sleep at all. For a while, she remembered that my mother said that Lele helped her father as a matchmaker, and then I remembered that she would ask Lele who she wanted to be a new mother when Lele came back. For a while, I think about the various things about Brother Le and the Le family. For a while, I think about this and that. I think in my head, over and over, over and over, and I can't sleep for a long time.

It rained the next day.

It is rainy in spring and summer, and it is normal to rain every three or five days. The other day, the sky was very good. It was either sunny or cloudy. Even if there was an occasional drizzle, it would not delay the work of the farmer’s fields. Therefore, the sweet potatoes of the villagers are also planted well. The fields were also sprinkled with herbicide water, so even if it rained, it would have little effect on the farm work.

It probably didn't rain a few days ago. God has accumulated a lot of sadness. The rain in the morning was like splashing in a basin not long after it started, and it fell from the sky. on the rise.

Lele's heart is in a mess, is Lele trapped in the mountains in such a heavy rain?Do you have anything to eat?Will it get wet, will it be cold?

A father is the backer behind every child. He is usually silent or not good at expressing himself. His love for his children is never less than that of a mother.

Le Dad looks like a gentleman, but his heart is delicate and gentle. He has been a father and a mother for more than ten years. The whole person is like the tea leaves in the water when making tea. Afraid of getting cold, afraid of being bullied when he is not by his side, not to mention the danger of a child running deep into the mountains for a walk, he can rest assured that it is a strange thing.

In the afternoon, the rain was a little less, but it was still wet.

Dad Le was worried for a long time, and finally got some comfort in the middle of the afternoon. His little padded jacket sent him a text message!Even if he didn't make a phone call, at least he knew that people were safe, and his restless heart could be calmer.

As for the child's return date, he no longer hopes for her to come back on time. Xiaolele is like a bird returning to the forest when she enters the mountains. If she doesn't play enough, she is reluctant to go home. He only hopes that the little padded jacket can take care of her by herself. Well, don't be hungry and cold.

Everyone has a bottom line. In front of the children, Le Dad's bottom line is lower and lower. In the past, he hoped that the children would be obedient and not fight. Later, he only hoped that when the children fought, they would not lose one thousand and eight hundred, and the children would go into the mountains. Before, he hoped that people would come back on time, but now he just hoped that she wouldn't get hurt. Looking ahead and thinking about the present, with this development, his bottom line would probably be too low.
