The shimmering lost dusty summer

Chapter 25 Happy Shimmer (4)
The little doll in the stroller in front of him kept smiling at him. He seemed to like Ding Yu very much. When he saw him, he stretched out his little hand to want him to hug him. Ding Yu ignored him, so he smirked at him drooling. He ordered some bread and stuffed it into his mouth, and he ate it all. Thinking it was funny, Ding Yu tore another piece, and put it in his mouth after he finished eating.

The fat man saw off the customers in the store before he was free. Seeing Ding Yu feeding the doll with rare care, he smiled and said, "How is this kid treating you? He likes you very much."

Ding Yu glanced at him: "Send me? Is your wife not looking for you desperately?"

"She's annoying too, isn't there another one? I sent her to practice piano today, and before going out, I kept yelling that it's annoying to have too many children," he said with a smile on his face, and reached out to take Ding Yu's hand. snatched the bread from him, "Don't feed me, I won't eat lunch later."

Ding Yu looked at the bread he stole, and seemed to think of something, thought for a while and said, "How about I invest in your bakery?"

"Huh?" The fat man thought he was joking, "What is there to invest in such a small bakery? Are you kidding me?"

"Your bakery," Ding Yu stood up very seriously, "make the store bigger, renovate it, and open a few branches elsewhere. I will pay for it. You will be the boss, why don't you?"

"Are you serious?" The fat man opened his mouth wide.

"real."

The fat man couldn't react for a moment, and after a while he scratched his head and said, "What should I do if I lose money?"

Ding Yu took the French stick and tapped it in his hand: "It's my fault."

"That's what you said."

"Ah."

Only then did the fat man feel that it was a great thing, as if he was afraid that Ding Yu would regret it, he picked up the phone and said, "I have to tell my wife."

The fat man called him, and the little baby was still staring at the bread that was snatched by his father, with a small mouth pouting "woo woo", Ding Yu looked at him, took the piece of bread to tease him, look He opened his small mouth wide but only bit off a small piece, he couldn't help laughing.

In fact, he is not very sure, but he has to try to do some things, just like he agreed to be a coach. When he picked up the basketball that day, he felt very uncomfortable and felt heavy. However, since he didn’t throw the ball and turned around, because He thought that many cameras were facing him, and Nuan Feng might be watching on TV.

"Ding Yu, let's have dinner together tonight. My wife and I invite me to dinner." After the fat man reported to his wife, he immediately conveyed his wife's instructions.

Ding Yuyang smiled: "No," he said, throwing the bread in his hand to the baby, "Where's the cake I want?"

"Oh, it's done, here it is," the fat man immediately brought up the cake he just finished respectfully, and asked proudly, "Isn't it a work of art?"

Ding Yu glanced at it: "Okay, send it there for me." He was about to go out.

"Are you really not going to eat?" Fatty asked, looking at his back as he was leaving.

Ding Yu didn't answer, and went out, the baby behind him was smiling happily, the fat man turned his head, and the baby was happily eating the cake.

"Give it to me, I'll see if you don't eat later." The fat man snatched it up again, and then watched the doll cry with her mouth pursed.

Ding Yu went out.

It was late autumn, and the wind blowing was already a bit cool. He put on the sunglasses in his pocket, and remembered that many years ago at this time, it was already very cold, so cold that there was no cold drink in the small town where he lived. It can be bought, but now, in such a big city, in such a slightly cold weather, the freezers of all small shops are still full of cold drinks.

Today is the anniversary of her father's death, to be precise, her adoptive father, but at the same time, today is also Nuan Feng's birthday, because that day is her birthday, so she made that unreasonable request, and every year after that, Nuan Feng will come again She didn't celebrate her birthday either, at most it was Fu Lei who secretly cooked a bowl of noodles for her, even if a boy gave her a cake once, she was careful not to let him see it.

He reached out to hail a car and went to his father's cemetery.

Ding Jianming's tomb was originally in a small town, but was later moved by Ding Jianguo to a noble cemetery on the outskirts of the city. When Ding Jianguo led a group of people to dig up Ding Jianming's tomb and take away the ashes, his mother followed for a long time, crying all the time. keep crying.

Therefore, the tomb is actually empty now, and my mother stubbornly came to the town every year to visit the tomb, saying that even if it was removed, he would definitely be able to see it.

The empty tomb was in the crop field along the river, and it was the custom of the small town to build the tomb in their own field.

This year, my mother's health is not good, and the hard work in her youth is the root cause of the disease. The four-hour round-trip car will make her so tired that she can't stand upright, so Nuanfeng tried to persuade her to stay at home and come alone.

In late autumn, the Zhuang's wedding field was golden, and the warm wind hadn't returned for a long time. She burned some paper money in front of the grave according to the town's custom, and then sat down on the haystack beside the grave while watching the rising smoke.

When the mother came, she would always say something to the empty grave, but Nuan Feng always felt complicated when facing it. She didn't know what to say. Can sit quietly and watch the smoke burn away.

The wind in Tianyuan was blowing gently, and she remembered that a long time ago, Ding Yu would never come to visit the grave with her and her mother, but after they left, he came alone and took the melons, fruit cakes and other offerings from his mother. Kicked him off, and then sat on the ground for a long time before leaving. His mother beat him several times for this matter, but he still did this every year.

Now this tomb belongs to my mother alone, but unfortunately she has no strength to come here.

Reaching out to pull out the weeds beside the grave, the originally high grave gradually became flat due to the rain and wind, and when a tall grass was pulled up, the roots of the grass pulled out a large piece of soil, and the warm wind used I knocked the soil off the roots of the grass with my hands, and then I saw something red in the sunken place where the grass had been pulled out.

She froze for a moment, stretched out her hand to pull it, it was a red rope, it broke when she pulled it, but there seemed to be something underneath.

It was not far from the tomb. Who buried things here?

She gently pulled out the soil with her hands, then picked it with her fingers, and pulled out a box full of rust. The box was very thin with rust. It should have been tied with a red rope, but now it was easily opened and fell off. A package of things, wrapped in several plastic bags, is still in good condition.

That thing must have been a few years ago, because it was two steps away from the grave, and it was not dug out when Ding Jianguo came to dig it up.

She opened the plastic bag, and the two layers on the outside would break if she touched it. Fortunately, there were still two layers inside. When she opened it, the warm air froze when she saw the contents clearly.

A well-folded math paper, which has turned yellow and the handwriting is not clear enough, but you can see the blurred score on it, 61 points; a certificate, which is No. 800 in the 1-meter run when I was in the sixth grade of elementary school; a red scarf ; Graduation certificates of primary and secondary schools; scores of college entrance examinations, admission notices.

They were all Ding Yu's things. She had seen and never seen them, and thought he had thrown them away without any thought, but he kept everything and buried them beside his father's tomb.

"Ding Yu, why don't you take the exam?"

"Anyway, if you fail, what's there to do?"

"Ding Yu, where is your red scarf?"

"threw."

"Ding Yu, are you skipping class again?"

"I can't graduate anyway."

"Ding Yu..."

It turned out that he cared all about it, but he never knew it.

If you want to talk about how you felt towards Ding Yu at that time, you should probably blame him for always skipping classes, being disobedient, and always making mother angry. I never tried to find out what he was thinking.

Nuanfeng looked at those things, and it was impossible to bury them back. The iron box was broken, and the plastic bag was broken. It was far away from the town, so it was impossible to buy another box and put it back. Nuan Feng looked at the pile of things and suddenly didn't know what to do. After a long time, he carefully put them into his bag. Maybe Ding Yu himself forgot, but he should pick a time to return them to him.

When I got home, it was already dark, and my mother was sitting at the table waiting for her. She said she would cook some dishes to celebrate her birthday, but there was no smell of food in the room.

Is the mother not feeling well?
"What's the matter, Mom?" She went up to rub her mother's shoulder, and then saw the cake on the table.

"What a beautiful cake, mom, did you buy it?" Nuanfeng looked at the red strawberries on the cake, and felt delighted, unexpectedly, her mother had prepared a cake.

"I didn't buy it, it was sent by the fat man." The mother's voice was cold, looking at the cake coldly.

"Fat man?"

"Yes, he said, Ding Yu asked him to send it."

The warm wind froze.

"What do you mean by him?" Mother pointed at the cake, "In the past, he couldn't tolerate any birthday atmosphere at home today, even if he just cooked an extra dish, what is sending a cake now? What do you mean? I dare not eat it when it is delivered, because I am afraid there is poison in it."

The warm wind didn't make a sound, looking at the cake, why did you send the cake?She couldn't figure it out either.

"You return it now, we don't care." The mother closed the lid of the cake box that was opened next to it, and handed it to Nuanfeng.

Nuanfeng hesitated for a while, but didn't answer: "Forget it, Mom, it's already so late."

"Then throw it away." The mother took the cake and refused to put it back. The warm wind had no choice but to take it.

The man walked to the door with the cake in his hands, sighed slightly, looked at the cake in his hand, and wondered if he really wanted to throw it away?

I took out my mobile phone and looked up the fat man's number to ask what happened, but no one answered after calling for a long time. Anyway, if I took it back intact, my mother would definitely not agree, so I had to go downstairs slowly.

Walking downstairs, Nuanfeng stood under the street lamp for a while, thinking that Ding Yu actually lived in the newly built community opposite their community. The house there was originally bought by Ding Yu for her and her mother, but because she was determined not to If he wanted it, he said angrily that he lived by himself.

You can go downstairs to him and let him come down to get it by himself. By the way, you can return the things in the bag to him. She can see that the bag on her back is still on her back, and there are still things dug by the tomb in it.

Holding the cake and crossing the road, the newly built community is opposite. Compared with the community where Nuanfeng lives, this place is obviously luxurious. From the private cars that are full of parking spaces along the way, you know that this is a different world.

In fact, she hadn't been here before, so she wasn't sure which building it was, but she remembered the address on the deed. Following the direction pointed by the guard, she walked along a green belt and saw the building in front, which should be it.

There is a sports area on the side of the road. There are two tennis courts, two basketball courts, and other sports facilities. It really is a luxurious community. Nuan Feng walked and watched, and then saw a familiar figure on the basketball court.

It's Ding Yu.

He was wearing a jersey, running and dribbling, but he didn't make jumping movements. He occasionally threw a ball, but he just lifted his body, and he didn't jump up. The warm wind looked at him for a while, and he seemed to be unable to bear it, and jumped slightly. After a while, he shot, but missed. He was not reconciled, and he shot again, still jumping up to shoot lightly, but still missed.

Obviously, because of my leg injury, I was worried about jumping at this time, and I really couldn't jump too high. The focus and shooting point were different from before, so of course I couldn't make a shot.This is inevitable, and there is no way around it, but Ding Yu seems to find it hard to accept.

He has to try again.

"Ding Yu." Nuan Feng called out.

Just when Ding Yu wanted to shoot, when she called, Ding Yu was distracted, and the basketball fell to the ground.

"You can't do jumping anymore." Nuan Feng looked at his legs.

Ding Yu didn't expect the warm wind to appear at this moment. He wiped the sweat off his face, and then saw the cake in her hand. He seemed to guess something. He turned back to pick up the basketball without making a sound, with his back to her, and lay on the ground. Take a shot.

"I'll give you this cake back." Sure enough, Nuanfeng said directly.

"What are you doing here? Throw it away if you don't like it." Ding Yu kept hitting the ball with more force.

"I put it next to me." The warm wind put the cake on the ground.

"Damn it!" Ding Yu threw the ball directly onto the basketball hoop, then bounced back and fell to the ground.

Neither of them said anything.

After a long while, Nuan Feng thought of the contents of the bag, approached Ding Yu, and handed him the bag in a plastic bag: "This is your thing."

Ding Yu froze for a moment, looked at her, then lowered his head to look at the things in her hands, took it for a while, opened it, and saw one of the things, he knew what those were.

He looked at Nuan Feng in surprise: "Where did you come from?"

"I found it when I went to the countryside to sweep graves today." Nuan Feng said truthfully.

Looking at those things again, Ding Yu suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and stuffed them into a ball in his trousers pocket: "You have seen it."

"I didn't mean to watch it." Nuanfeng thought he was going to blame her.

Ding Yu had no expression on his face. He looked at the warm wind and saw that she was wearing a light blue dress, a white short coat on her upper body, and her hair was tied up randomly. She looked delicate and beautiful. The cake on the ground suddenly reached out to pull the warm air.

Startled by Nuan Feng, he struggled subconsciously, but Ding Yu held it tightly.

He pulled her to the side of the cake and immediately let go, then squatted down, and brought the cake box, which contained the cake that the fat man called a work of art.

He cut a piece with the tool inside and handed it to the warm air.

He didn't pick up the warm air, but just looked at him suspiciously.

He didn't force it, and stuffed the cake directly into his mouth, then spread out his other hand and stretched it out in front of her. It was a piece of green broken glass. The warm wind remembered that it was in Ding Yu's bag, in the tomb. When she got to the side, she thought she just accidentally fell in.

"It was the day my dad passed away, your last birthday. I want to give you a birthday present. It's the biggest piece I've ever picked up. I use it to see that the sun is green during the day," he pulled the warm wind again. Putting her hand in her palm: "Happy birthday." He seemed to just say something in passing, and then he just lowered his head and ate the cake in his hand.

Nuanfeng stared blankly at the glass in her hand. It seemed worthless now, but she remembered that this kind of colored glass was rare at that time. A group of children liked to look for the stones used in construction to see who could find the biggest one. Then rejoice and collect it as the most precious thing.

And what did he just say?Happy birthday?to her?Although he said it casually, does he know what this happy birthday means to her?

She looked at Ding Yu and saw that his mouth was full of cream, her eyes suddenly became sour.

She said, Ding Yu, I don't owe you anything, she really doesn't owe him anything, but she did accidentally kill someone, like a shackle, she always bears it, she needs a word from Yuan Liang, she need relief.

Happy birthday, yes, today is her birthday. In the past, she always went to worship and regret every year. She always ignored the existence of this birthday. Now the person who has always hated her said happy birthday to her.

Why did you suddenly say this to her?He always speaks ill at each other, and always wants revenge, why?Is it really just casually saying, what about this cake?

"I'm going home." She was afraid that she would cry, so she turned around.

Ding Yu didn't stop her, and watched her walk away, then threw the cake in his hand back into the box, and sat down on the ground.

Will you forgive me one day?he asked in his heart.

5. Surrender
The matter of Wu Zheng's going to the UK was stranded because Li Pin brought Wu's father to court with a petition and demanded that the case be overturned.

How could Wu Zheng leave at this time?
Although such an accusation may not be successful, it has caused a lot of trouble in the city.

The mother was obviously much more haggard, and said to Wu Zheng: "You must not let your father lose his life at the end of the festival." But there was nothing she could do, she just read it.

Wu Zheng looked out the window.

However, my father did make a mistake.

He didn't say these words, afraid that his mother would be more worried, but his eyes dimmed.

My father must have suffered a lot these past few decades. After being held hostage by that person for decades, he finally had a stroke at the last moment. One can imagine how much stress and worry there is in it?Now he is being sued in court again.

"Mom, I want to see Dad," he said.

Fatty's new store opens.

Ding Yu really did what he said, and in just one month, he paid the fat man's one-year rent for a shop in a prime location, including decoration and equipment.

Fatty's family went to the door to distribute leaflets, and Fatty also called a few brothers to help, but Ding Yu refused to show up, so he asked him to take care of the children in the store.
