unkind [rebirth]

The town is not big, and there are no cafes where people can sit and chat.Du Guo made an appointment with Captain Liu at a small ramen restaurant. When he entered, Captain Liu was eating ramen.

"Uh...Uncle Liu?" Du Guo called out hesitantly.

Captain Liu raised his head in response, and put his police cap aside, Du Guo could see his face clearly at this time, the resolute outline, dark skin, his eyes should be sharp when he is not smiling, but when he saw Du Guo, he bent into a Two crescent moons and small eyes are not good. If you squint a little, you will not be able to see the eyeballs.

"Du Guo, come and sit. Uncle Liu drove here in the middle of the night yesterday. He didn't eat all night. He was so hungry that he had to drive back after eating. Do you want to eat?" Captain Liu opened his mouth, and the stalwart image of the people's police suddenly fell apart. As if he was just a reliable and talkative uncle living next door.

"I don't eat, I have to go back to grandma's house at noon."

Captain Liu ate up all the ramen noodles in the bowl and drank up the soup before he started talking about the topic.

"Second sister-in-law... your mother is not easy." He first sighed, and then he found Du Guo looking at him blankly, and then he smiled again: "You don't even know me, do you? When I was young, I was with your father It's a colleague."

Zhang Qiu never mentioned Du Linping in front of Du Guo, let alone anyone related to Du Linping's work. Du Guo knew nothing about Du Linping except that his own father was a policeman.

"Oh, Happy New Year, Uncle Liu, I haven't seen you before." Du Guo was very curious. He hadn't seen you in so many years. What good could he do if he suddenly came to see you?

"Well, I haven't seen it. Your mother hates me very much. I feel ashamed and dare not go to you. Who knows that time passes so fast. I remember you as a little kid."

Du Guo smiled, he didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Captain Liu has his own stage, and he just needs to listen: "You are so old, there are some things your mother won't tell you, but uncle thinks you are a man too, it's time to know the truth, and listen to uncle's confession by the way."

Du Guo really didn't expect that he would have to hear how his father died. He wanted to know in his heart, but he was afraid of knowing emotionally.

The polite smile on the corner of his lips couldn't be maintained anymore, Du Guo was almost sitting upright, listening seriously.

Captain Liu sighed: "Oh, it's been so long, I don't know where to start." He frowned, as if he didn't want to recall the past either: "When I first started working, I was with your father, and it was your father who held hands I brought it with me, so the person I respect the most in the institute is my father, and I usually call him the second brother.

The second brother has a good temper, capable and steady, and if everyone encounters a problem that they can’t handle, they will habitually ask him, so that day, the second brother was resting, but I had no conscience to look for him..." Speaking of the pain, Liu The captain paused, as if recalling this incident was also torture for him.

He didn't ask Du Guo's opinion, so he lit a cigarette by himself, took two puffs, and then continued: "I still remember that the second brother said that after taking a break after a long time, he wanted to take the second sister-in-law and son out to play. The playground, other people’s children have been there, he has to lead you to experience it, and you can also spend time with your second sister-in-law, but in the end, it’s just because of my paging..." Captain Liu’s fingers trembling slightly, even in strong winds and waves. He passed by, but his eyes were red, and he choked up slightly: "At that time, people also reported false police reports. I was young and ignorant. I felt that the police force was limited and could not be wasted on meaningless things. At that time, I wanted my second brother to drop by. Give me a look, and I can prioritize."

Captain Liu clenched his other hand into a fist and slammed his chest twice: "That's my own brother, if I knew in advance that the incident could escalate to murder, I would rather die myself than let my second brother go. "

Meddling in other people's affairs and dying unexpectedly, the father and son turned out to be the same destination by different routes.Du Guo thought with a wry smile.

Captain Liu slowed down, pulled his mind out of the grief, and changed his title again: "Your mother has always hated me, and also hated your father. It seems that she is someone who wants to be strong. She doesn't want a cent of sympathy money or compensation. For your grandparents, the rest are all donated to welfare organizations, and your father’s relics, she refused to take it, and took you to move. I know this is hiding from me. I feel ashamed and dare not Looking for you, so all these years, things are here with me."

As he said that, Captain Liu took an iron box from the stool next to him and gave it to Du.The iron box containing biscuits in the 90s, after the baptism of time, exudes an old atmosphere.

Du Guo took it with both hands and placed it in front of him.The other customers in the shop spoke loudly, which relieved his embarrassment of being speechless.

"Boss, it's a good thing your house is open today. It's hard not to eat your noodles for a day!"

"I know everyone wants to eat, so I just opened it today, but I won't do it at noon, I have to go home for the New Year!"

Another spring came to report. Du Guo heard a devastating secret without any warning. He couldn't turn his head around. He couldn't find his position. Du Linping's vain death is difficult to settle.So don't know how to react.

Captain Liu realized that the truth had hit Du Guo too hard, but he thought he had to tell Du Guo that with Zhang Qiu's personality, Du Guo might not even know that he had such a heroic father. His own son also forgot about him.

"There are two students in your school. They were arrested for committing a crime a year ago, and they can't get out for a while. Study hard, and your mother will rely on you from now on."

Du Guo's original gaze on the iron box changed from numbness to surprise, and he looked up at Captain Liu.

He was the first to think of Li Xiaochen and Tan Feicheng. What did Captain Liu know?How do you know?What role did Zhang Qiu play in it?

Captain Liu put on his hat, put the money under the bowl, and got up to say goodbye to Du Guo: "Actually, I want to visit you during the holidays, but your mother doesn't even see me. Although uncle is not in charge of grassroots work now. Now, your family is not in the uncle's jurisdiction, but you can go to uncle for anything. Today, uncle is leaving first, and you can't relax during the Chinese New Year."

"Alright, Uncle Liu, be careful."

Du Guo was in a mess in his head, when he came back to his senses, he had already returned to the hotel with the iron box in his arms.Du Linping has been gone for too long. To Du Guo, it was all twenty years ago.Now he can only vaguely remember the scene of sitting on his father's neck to join in the fun when he was a child.

What he holds in his hand is another intersection between father and son as if traveling through time and space.Du Guo pondered for a moment, let himself calm down, and opened the lid of the iron box.

There are not many things, a handmade wooden slingshot, a plastic toy pistol, a yellowed cotton handkerchief, and a few strike pens.

And a notebook with a leather cover, the words "serve the people" that were originally gleaming in gold have been peeled off and mottled.

Du Guo never dreamed that he could see Du Linping's diary with his own eyes in his lifetime. This feeling is very strange. Others are exchanging diaries between lovers in order to warm up their relationship. So what is he doing?

Turning to the first page of the notebook, a row of vigorous pen writing came into view.

"Will I not love you? Don't love you? No. Loving you is like loving life."

Du Guo's stiff expression gradually relaxed when he saw this sentence.

Du Linping was still a literary youth.

The content of the diary is very trivial, so Du started to read page by page.Du Linping's handwriting is good, which makes Du Guo feel ashamed.

"XX, X, X, sunny. Today, Guoguo is going to kindergarten, and we agreed to deliver Guoguo together, but I didn't go, Guoguo, Dad owes you one."

Guoguo is Du Guo's nickname.

"On X, X, XX, it rained. Today, Datou's daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby. It happened that there was nothing to do in the institute, so Datou could go back to accompany his daughter-in-law. Thinking that I couldn't accompany Xiaoqiu when she gave birth to fruit, I was so sorry Xiaoqiu. "

"On X, X, XX, sunny. It is said that Guoguo won the first place in the sports meeting. The teacher praised him. It's a pity that I didn't see it. Why do the bad guys seem to be against me? I will call me back as soon as I rest."

Du Linping's diary is not written frequently, and he is busy with work, so he doesn't have much time to record his life.However, in the few diaries, his guilt towards his family is recorded between the lines. He should be a man who values ​​love and righteousness, otherwise he would not write down these tedious things. It does not look like a diary, but more like a diary. It is the ledger.

Du Guo turned to the end, which happened to be written by Du Linping the day before his accident.

"Year X, X, Yun. Tomorrow is finally a vacation. This time I can take a few more days off, just in time to take Guoguo out with Xiaoqiu, miss Guoguo's birth, miss Guoguo's first talk, and miss Guoguo Going to kindergarten, if this continues, Guoguo will deny me. Thank you Xiaoqiu, thank you for giving me a home."

But he failed to do so, and then he missed the life of his wife and children.

There is a photo next to the last diary. In the old color photo, Du Linping is standing straight by the bridge, holding Du Guo who is biting his finger in his arms. Zhang Qiu is wearing a goose yellow dress, standing gracefully with her husband Beside him and his son, Du Guo was still young, so he concentrated on gnawing his fingers for some unknown reason, but the faces of the husband and wife were filled with happy and contented smiles.

Du Guo finally understood Zhang Qiu.

Zhang Qiu loves Du Linping deeply, otherwise she would not have traveled all the way to the north to marry.Deep love, deep hatred.As strong as Zhang Qiu's love for Du Linping was, after Du Linping passed away, his hatred was so deep.Du Linping owed a lot to Zhang Qiu, but because Zhang Qiu loved him, he endured all the grievances alone, relying on the unattainable love fantasy created by Du Linping for her, guarding Du Linping's family.

However, the passing of Du Linping completely ruined Zhang Qiu's petty fantasy.She hated Du Linping, hated him for giving her an empty joy, hated him for promising her to be with her, hated him for leaving them first when he was struggling to support this family.This kind of hatred overwhelmed Zhang Qiu, and she simply hated everyone related to Du Linping.She hated Du Linping's parents and relatives, his colleagues and friends, and even Du Guo, her own son.

There is no way, as soon as I see my son, I think of Du Linping.

But Zhang Qiu is as loyal as Du Linping in his heart.When Du Linping left, she gritted her teeth and took on the responsibilities of two people, supporting Du Guo, supporting her parents, and taking care of Du Linping's brothers and sisters...

In Du Guo’s memory, his family was not rich when he was a child. There was only one new dress to wear during the Spring Festival throughout the year. Other children ate snacks to buy toys, and cut rubber in different patterns every day. Mom said, he didn't know what pocket money was until he entered junior high school.

Now he is very glad that he was still sensible.Zhang Qiu is a single mother with a child, and has worked hard in the workplace to reach her current position. Du Guo has also struggled in society. He can't imagine how much pressure Zhang Qiu has endured.

Those who are responsible always live a more tiring life.Especially people like Zhang Qiu who do a lot and talk a little.

Du Guo lay exhausted on the bed, recalling and sorting out over and over again, recalling how the relationship between their mother and child was on thin ice in the previous life, sorting out the little details of care that he had neglected.

The last time there was a fight at KTV, he thought that if Zhang Qiu didn't mention it, the matter would be over. As a result, Zhang Qiu found a way to find out by himself. Even Uncle Liu knew about it, so Zhang Qiu took the initiative to contact Uncle Liu.For the sake of his son, he is willing to do even the thing of "putting aside past suspicions"...

Although he lost his father, he still has such a mother. What else can he complain about?

Du Guo's heart was full of satisfaction, he felt that he had found the meaning of rebirth, at this moment, he really wanted to find someone to share with, he didn't have any close friends yet, but he did have a man he liked.

Taking out his mobile phone, Du Guo edited a text message and said: "Teacher, I suddenly feel very happy, very happy, what should I do, I feel that I am going to be drowned by happiness, I am afraid that I will not be happy in the future."

As a result, Luo Wei did not reply to the text message, but a phone call.

Because Du Guo had figured out the relationship between his parents and himself, his nose was a little sore, so his voice was a bit muffled. As soon as he said "Hello", Luo Wei asked him with a hint of worry: "Du Guo, what happened?"

"..."

Did not hear the answer, Luo Wei became more worried: "Du Guo, are you listening?"

"Why do you think something is wrong with me?" Du Guo walked to the window, suppressing his emotion and asking back.

Luo Wei couldn't tell either.When he saw the text message, he felt that there was something wrong with Du Guo, but he was not by Du Guo's side, so he couldn't help him if something happened, so he became impatient.

This reaction is not right... Luo Wei felt annoyed later, the moment he heard Du Guo's nasal voice, did he think that Du Guo was crying?Did you think Du was sick?Did you have the urge to immediately buy a plane ticket to find Du Guo?

"Cough...it's nothing, I'm going to faint." Luo Wei hastily concealed his emotions. "What are you doing? Are you bored now?"

Du Guo looked at the sporadic passing vehicles outside the window, and felt that Luo Wei's voice was like the sound of nature.

"I'm bored, I want to talk to you."

I also want to talk to you.Luo Wei said so in his heart, but he just gave an understatement, and asked, "When will you come back? The art exhibition I told you before is held at the Convention and Exhibition Center on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Do you want to come and see it?"

"Going to go!" Du Guo couldn't wait to respond: "I'll go back tomorrow, and you will take me with you then! I, a layman, also go to bathe in the brilliance of art."

Luo Wei laughed softly: "You're so talkative, let's meet in the third year of junior high."

Du Guo also laughed: "No problem, I'll find you when I get back!"

After hanging up the phone, the gloomy mood turned from cloudy to sunny.Du Guo put Du Linping's relics back into the box and covered it, knocked on the iron lid and said to himself: "Dad, your son, I want to attack the class teacher! Your spirit in heaven will bless me to succeed!"

The author has something to say: Small Theater: Du Linping, who was reincarnated and was in elementary school, was sleeping in class and suddenly woke up.He yawned and said to his deskmate, "I had a dream just now, and a handsome brother called me Dad!" The deskmate looked ahead and said calmly, "Did you dream of the teacher holding chalk?" Hit you and make you stand?" Du Linping looked dazed, and when he turned his head, the teacher was staring at him angrily: "Damn it! How dare you sleep in my class?! Stand behind me!"

Remarks: Will I not love you?Do not love you?Won't.loving You like loving life. ——Wang Xiaobo
