It may be something to be happy about passing the junior high school entrance examination and officially becoming a junior high school student.In contrast to the future, when a university admission notice is delivered to the house, the man still looks neither sad nor happy. Du Ziteng feels that now Du Lixiang is both happy and can't help cursing a few words, holding back crying for a while and holding back for a while. The smile looks very happy.

Obviously, Du Ziteng was able to enter the No. [-] Municipal No. [-] Middle School through the back door with money, but he acted as if Du Ziteng got in by himself.

The man still didn't forget to curse: "Second to last! It's a blessing that you can take the second to last exam! I almost lost my money!" As he spoke, the corners of his mouth still curled up unconsciously.

Du Ziteng was happy to see him, he pondered what he wanted to say, sat up straight, and stared into the man's eyes.Seeing his son's serious expression, Du Lixiang put away his angry or happy expression, and asked kindly, "Little brat, what do you want to say?"

Du Ziteng took a deep breath: "I'm going to see my mother and tell her the news."

With just one sentence, Du Lixiang's face darkened by half, and the gentleness just now disappeared.The man was full of anger, like a lion with its hair blown up: "I didn't beat or scold you, you really kicked your nose in the face! The lesson is not enough, isn't it, don't mention that woman in front of me!" After saying that, he raised his hand The porcelain cup hit Du Ziteng's feet, pointed at his nose and cursed: "Or go to that woman's side and never come back!"

He sarcastically said: "What's so good about her? You miss her so much? Don't forget, who is raising you now, who is feeding and drinking for you! Can she support you!"

Endless anger rushed towards his face, and Du Ziteng stared at the things in the man's hands that might be used as weapons, his calves felt weak.

He was beaten by his father more than once.Every time I was beaten, there was a sense of luck that I had come back from wandering around the gate of hell.Facing the angry Du Lixiang, Du Ziteng couldn't help worrying whether he would kill him out of control.

In Du Ziteng's original era, the father and son had maintained a relationship of well water and river water for an unknown period of time.No one will provoke anyone, and no one will take the initiative to talk to anyone, unless there is something that has to be communicated.So Du Ziteng hadn't faced his angry father for many years. He subconsciously recalled the pain and bruises on his body, and his legs were shaking.

But how could he hold back?How could he repeat the same mistakes?Taking one step back here will take countless steps back in the future, things will not change, and he will still not see his dying mother.

Du Ziteng straightened his legs, leaned forward, met Du Lixiang's anger and tried to explain calmly: "I haven't seen my mother for a long time, and I kind of miss her."

Du Lixiang sneered: "Is it because you are tired of watching me every day?" He picked up the ashtray at hand as if to smash it.

"Don't be like a woman fighting for favor, okay? You're just making trouble for no reason!" Du Ziteng subconsciously closed his eyes and tilted his head when he saw the ashtray, but he still shouted these words that might ignite the man even more.After waiting for a while to feel the pain in his body, he bravely opened his eyes and looked at Du Lixiang. The man's face was flushed red with anger, and his eyes were bloodshot.Du Ziteng even added fuel to the flames without knowing his face: "I don't know what happened between you and her, but why do you blame me for your own grievances! Sandwiched between you, I want to think about this and want to Gu Quan, do you think I'm not bothering you!"

In one breath, he spit out all the words he had held in his heart for many years.This feeling of all troubles gone is of course extremely refreshing, but the atmosphere at this time does not allow him to express this carefreeness.

Du Ziteng held his breath for too long because of a single sentence, gasped incoherently, and stared at the man.Du Lixiang was panting too, as if he saw a red bullfighting bull, he sprayed a faint mist from his nostrils, breathing surprisingly loudly.

The kid wouldn't have said things like that before.This child has been surprisingly bored since elementary school, no matter whether he is praised or criticized, even if he is beaten, he will not take the initiative to tell the adults.It may be because of the estranged relationship between the parents, the child always feels that something is missing, and becomes like a mouse, timidly and cautiously examining the eyes of the people around him, and will only follow the wishes of others.

After a long time, of course, adults ignore the children's ideas.

Suddenly one day, to everyone's surprise, the child exploded.In the beginning, he only resisted Du Lixiang's orders with a superficial obedience attitude, even if he was beaten, it was just a change of mouth to accommodate.Later, he, who had always played the role of a good boy, simply made a big fuss. First, he beat up the domineering child from another family, and then grabbed the adults and refused to let him go.Although it was just a naive fight, the child's eyes did reveal the ferocity of wanting to kill someone.

Du Lixiang was caught on the scene by a phone call, and when he learned that the reason for their fight was just "Du Ziteng, you are a child without a mother", he slapped Du Ziteng twice on the spot.The parent of the other party was stunned by this unadulterated family law, and his child was so frightened that he burst into tears and offered to apologize, but Du Ziteng didn't shed a single tear, and turned his head and refused to accept it.

That matter ended up being settled, but Du Lixiang saw his son's stubbornness.

It's okay to be stubborn, as long as it's not about that woman.But Du Ziteng was only stubborn in that aspect, Du Lixiang had no choice but to try to correct his son's thinking with violence.

Obviously, this has not been corrected.Du Lixiang walked around the room and took out a feather duster. He swung his arms and was about to hit him, but his eyes met Du Ziteng's.

There is no begging or cowardice in the eyes, only forbearance and refusal to give in.How could this be the innocent look a child should have?Du Lixiang suddenly thought that Du Ziteng was also a junior high school student, and he was no longer a kid who didn't understand anything.When I saw his mother in elementary school, I also sneaked there and never dared to bring it up aboveboard. Is this a kind of growth?

Du Lixiang sighed, put down the feather duster and loosened the tense muscles all over his body, and closed his eyes as if he had made some humiliating concession: "Go. Just drown in that woman's arms."

Obviously, Du Ziteng didn't expect Du Lixiang to agree so easily, he glanced at his father in disbelief, fearing that he would repent, he rushed out quickly, slammed the door and ran downstairs, he was relieved.

...so you agree?Is Du Lixiang such a talkative person?

Regardless, this is a rare opportunity.Du Ziteng started to run, turned and walked through the alleys with ease, crossed the road twice and turned again, and arrived at the downstairs of the dilapidated small apartment.

In her memory, she lived here until her mother left.

There was no way, she couldn't move even if she wanted to, she was just a poor woman who lost her husband and son.After the divorce, she lived here alone for more than ten years, and she may have suffered countless difficulties, but she has always been diligent and diligent, and never thought of remarrying, staying in the empty boudoir as if waiting for her lost husband and child.

But Du Ziteng never saw her again.

Walking and walking, I came to the door of my mother's house.

No, it should not be called "home", "house" or "residence" would be more appropriate.

The palms of his hands were clenched into fists, and he raised his hand. His knuckles were two centimeters away from the iron gate, and he stopped.

hand, did not dare to knock down.

Du Ziteng was scared.

Du Ziteng has an incomprehensible fear of his parents.For his father, it was a fear of violence, but mixed with anger; for his mother, it was a fear of guilt, and his fear of her was tinged with a little inferiority complex.

He felt that he was like a white-eyed wolf who accepted the favor from his mother and patted his ass away. He never saw her again and left her alone until death.With such a selfish and despicable act, what face would Du Ziteng have to meet his mother?

People who are obviously close relatives have become more distant than strangers.Du Ziteng didn't know if he was the only one with such a mentality, he just felt that the closer he was to the person, the longer he hadn't seen him, and he missed him all the time, but when he really met, he was so cautious that he didn't even know where to put his hands.

Over time, this restraint turned into timidity.Coupled with his father's domestic violence, Du Ziteng didn't even dare to see his biological mother, and could only silently wish his mother a happier life in his heart.

Everything goes against my will.

Du Ziteng felt that he was really thick-skinned, and everyone left. If he hadn't returned to junior high school for no reason this time, what chance would he have to stand in front of his mother's house again?He was just a white-eyed wolf who didn't care about his mother's life or death.

The hand that stood still in front of the door did not dare to knock down.Du Ziteng sighed, and laughed at himself, so what if he could come out to see his mother after arguing with Du Lixiang?He is still so timid, nothing has changed.Du Ziteng moved his stiff legs, and subconsciously lowered the sound of his footsteps, trying to cover up the traces of his presence by leaving.But just halfway down the stairs, I saw an old lady climbing up the stairs neatly carrying a vegetable basket. Du Ziteng hid aside to make way for her. The old lady raised her head to thank her, but her eyes lit up when she saw Du Ziteng, and she stopped. His arm: "Isn't this Xiao Teng! Come to see my mother? Children are filial..."

Du Ziteng froze invisibly.But it was difficult for him to break free when the old lady clenched his arms, and he was dragged to the door he had just left with anticipation and reluctance. The old lady knocked on the door loudly, and said enthusiastically: "Why, little Teng, don't you know me, my wife?"

Hearing this, the nervous boy had to look at the old lady's face - Du Ziteng didn't like to meet other people's eyes.He quickly glanced at the old lady's face, but still couldn't remember, but he didn't want to meet other people's eyes, he pretended to be thinking and began to hesitate.

The sound of footsteps came from the back room across the door, and the door opened.The woman in casual clothes saw her son at a glance, and the surprise on her face was undisguised: "Xiao Teng! Why are you here!"

"Hey, there's my old lady!" The old lady pretended to be dissatisfied and angry, but also smiled.The woman covered her mouth and smiled and narrowed her eyes. She saw Du Ziteng's embarrassment at a glance, pulled her son and the old lady into the room, and explained to Du Ziteng affectionately: "It's your grandma! Can't remember?"

Only then did Du Ziteng suddenly realize.They hadn't seen each other for so long, and Du Ziteng later even blurred his mother's face, let alone his mother's mother.The boy immediately turned to the old lady and greeted him politely: "Hi, grandma." The old lady patted Du Ziteng's head with a smile.

The three sat around the small coffee table, each with a cup of hot tea.Du Ziteng didn't dare to look directly into his mother's eyes at all, he lowered his head and stared at his toes, before he dared to speak: "I... I passed the entrance examination of Municipal No. [-] Middle School."

"Huh, really, Xiao Teng is so good." The two women were taken aback, and they spared no effort to praise Du Ziteng. I can't spit it out.

Having said that, it can only add to their unhappiness.

It was the same way before.Du Ziteng didn't know why his parents divorced. He only knew that after the ending was decided, both of them very tacitly refused any communication with each other.The little Du Ziteng liked his father and his mother very much, and of course he didn't want them to be separated.But no matter how the child begged, the two refused.

After spending a year trying to convince them, little Du Ziteng finally understood that even if the mirror was broken, [-] wouldn't be able to glue it on.

Thinking of his mother leaving alone later, Du Ziteng's heart ached.

"Mom..." Du Ziteng called out suddenly, and the woman answered with a smile.

"If you really can't, find a boyfriend. You are alone, and life is hard..."

The woman was taken aback, and the old lady was also taken aback.Du Ziteng still lowered his head, and said sullenly: "You are beautiful and capable, and you are not a fool. Even if it is a second marriage, you don't have to worry about not getting married."

The woman's smile was a little more bitter.Her eye circles were slightly red, and she asked, "Why does Xiao Teng hope so much?"

Du Ziteng finally raised his head. He looked at her, and quickly lowered his head like a child who has done something wrong: "Your son and husband are not around, aren't you lonely?"

The last sentence seemed to be the fatal blow that broke the embankment line. Before the words finished, Du Ziteng's words were covered by sobs. The woman cried louder and louder, and the old lady shed tears. She wiped away one by one, but It can't be wiped clean.Du Ziteng stared at them blankly, his expression gradually collapsed.

"I'm sorry, Mom..."

The words that had been lingering in my heart for ten years finally flowed out.

The author has something to say:

I don’t know why I feel a little choked up when I write it. Could it be because the sense of substitution is too strong _(:з」∠)_?I mean to hide the reason for the divorce of Du Ziteng's parents here... To be honest, I don't know why they divorced, and I don't really want to find out, and I'm never married.

The next chapter is the official start of Du Ziteng's junior high school. I will write it more lightly... The military training that I like to hear and see... As for Liu Qi, he will not show his edge for the time being. Xueba said that he will keep a low profile for a while and let Du Ziteng first Desperate
