Where did Dad go.
This story is based on a true story).
The bright moon is not frightening, and the breeze chirps cicadas in the middle of the night. Outside the window, the fragrance of flowers is slight, people who enjoy the cool in twos and threes, a few naughty children chase the flickering fireflies, the air is filled with the smell of fireworks, the hazy night has become warm, the lights are on, and the soft lights warm the years.
Inside the house, under the soft light, a little girl in a powder blue skirt, with a wheat-colored ** looked so healthy, with two ponytails, and her face was slightly red, at this time, she was doing her homework one by one.
Suddenly, it was pitch black and the power went out. The little girl is most afraid of the dark, why is there a power outage when her father is not at home. The little girl slowly climbed from the desk to the bed, pulled the quilt over her body, leaving only a pair of black eyes exposed, staring straight at the night in front of her.
Mom, I'm scared. The little girl shouted.
Tongtong, don't be afraid, it may be a power outage. The mother responded loudly to her daughter in the living room.
No, the building outside is still lit, it should have tripped, and my mother went to push the gate up. Mom said.
Mom, don't go, I'm afraid. The daughter was crying slightly.
Then you go with your mother, okay? At this time, the mother had already walked into her daughter's room and came to her daughter's bedside and said.
Well. When the daughter saw her mother come in, she quickly jumped out of bed and threw herself into her arms.
Put your shoes on. The mother used the light of the flash of her mobile phone to find her daughter's slippers and put them at her feet.
Mother and daughter came to the living room together, and the mother held up her mobile phone to check the electric switch. "Tongtong, maybe the gate outside has jumped, let's go outside and push the gate up, okay? The mother asked her daughter.
The mother and daughter held hands and walked downstairs. "Mom, where is Daddy? The daughter suddenly asked.
Dad went to the outfield. Mom said.
Where the hell is the outfield? The daughter asked her mother.
The outfield, the outfield may be in the ......”
You shoot one, I shoot one, a child ...... on a planeThe sound of mother and daughter laughing could be heard in the window. In the community, the laughter and the greeting of the return, like a pearl sprinkled on a jade plate, are as crisp and pleasant as a small pebble being catapulted on the calm river, stirring up a circle of ripples, rippling in the night breeze to ......On the streets, cars with their lights on and speeding together form a glittering and moving river, rushing towards every different corner of the city......
Mom took out the key from her bag and opened the door, "Fourth, come in." Slippers in the shoe closet. After speaking, he casually took the dish in the hands of the middle-aged man behind him, walked towards the kitchen, and said as he walked, "Tongtong, come here, you can see who is coming." ”
Girl, I'm watching cartoons again. The middle-aged man said.
When Tongtong heard the voice, she immediately ran over and opened her arms, "Dad, you're back!" Tongtong hooked his hands around the middle-aged man's neck, "Dad, Dad." ”
Silly girl, look at who I am, if I am wrong again. The middle-aged man smiled.
Hearing him say this, Tongtong quickly turned his head and looked at his left ear, "Hmph, it's the fourth uncle again." Seeing a mole behind her ear, Tongtong said disappointedly.
In the kitchen, Tongtong's mother was cutting watermelon, "Fourth, you sit there and rest for a while, I'll cut watermelon for you to eat." ”
Sister-in-law, you're busy, and I'm not an outsider. "Fourth Uncle Tongtong doesn't look raw at all.
Let me tell you, thanks to you today, now, I have to let me do everything. Tongtong's mother said.
It's okay, sister-in-law, you're welcome. Fourth Uncle Tongtong said, "My third brother hasn't been back for more than half a year, right?" ”
No, it's been nine months. Tongtong's mother brought out a plate of cut watermelon from the kitchen and put it on the coffee table, "This mission seems to be quite special, don't let you hit **, can't**." In the past two days, Tongtong has always asked me where my father has gone and when will my father come home. Alas, I don't even know how to answer her. ”
Tongtong was lying on the windowsill, silently looking out the window, and a father and son were flying kites in the community leisure square.
In the children's room, Tongtong was sitting on the bed reading a comic book. Mom walked in and said to Tongtong, "Tongtong, don't look at it yet, let's eat some fruit and then look at it, okay?" ”
Tongtong ignored her mother and continued to look down at the comic book. "Watermelon is sweet! "Mom coaxed Tongtong.
Tongtong still pouted, ignoring her mother.
Tongtong, Mom found out that you were unhappy this afternoon, what's wrong with you? Mom asked, "Do you miss Daddy again?" ”
Tongtong put down the comic book, raised her head, and asked, "Mom, are you divorced from your father?" ”
Mom gently poked Peaches' head with her fingers, "What do you little head think about all day?" How could mom and dad get divorced! ”
Then why hasn't Dad come home for so long? Tongtong blinked her eyes.
Daddy's gone to the outfield. Mom said.
You always say that Dad went to the outfield, where is the outfield? Tongtong asked again.
Come, mom will show you. The mother put down the watermelon plate, turned around and took a map from the bookshelf and spread it out on her daughter's bed.
What about the outfield, it could be here, it could be here, it could be here. In short, if there is a plane, it may be Dad's outfield. Mom said as she pointed to the map.
Isn't it okay for Dad not to go to the outfield? Tongtong asked.
Of course not, that's Dad's mission. The mother looked at her daughter lovingly.
Mission, what is the mission? Tongtong didn't understand her mother's words.
Well. What about the mission......It's something that everybody has to do. It's like your mission, which is to study hard. Dad's mission is to work well in the field. Got it? The mother touched her daughter's head.
After listening to her mother's words, Tongtong nodded, thoughtful. "Can you get to the outfield by train? ”
Well, it should work too. But it's a long, long train ride. Mom's voice grew quieter and quieter.
In the square in front of the railway station, there was a bustling crowd, and the hurried footsteps fell on the steps of the cement pavement, ** clicking. In the noisy station, the endless stream of people swims like fish from all directions, and then hurriedly swims in all directions.
The train station, the train is speeding by.
What the?! Tongtong's mother, who was on her way to get off work, suddenly received a ** from the fourth uncle, and Tongtong was gone.
Tongtong's mother came home, pushed the door in, and immediately ran to the back room, shouting: "Tongtong! Tongtong! Tongtong! ”
No one answered, so he immediately turned around and went out, from the neighborhood to the street, asking around. Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't seen Tongtong. Tongtong's mother stood on the side of the road, stomping her feet hard, scratching her hair desperately with both hands, and crying.
At this moment, Tongtong's mother's ** rang.
In the police station. Thank you, comrade policeman, thank you. Tongtong's mother held the policeman's hand, "Thank you very much for causing trouble, thank you very much." ”
After speaking, he turned around and reprimanded his daughter, "Wang Xintong, you stand up for me!" What's the matter with you, running around! Do you know that everyone is anxious with you, if you get lost, how can I explain to your father? Why are you so disobedient, child? ”
Mom, don't get excited, don't be angry. I don't think this kid did it on purpose, she came to me to buy a ticket, saying that she was going to the outfield. The conductor of the railway station, who was sitting on the side, came over and said to Tongtong's mother.
Go to the outfield ......Tongtong's mother softly repeated the conductor's words.
Yes, that's what the kid said. I don't know where the outfield is. The conductor said, "I saw that there were no adults around her, and it was dangerous to be alone, so I took her to the station police station." ”
Silly child, mom doesn't know where the outfield is, where are you going to find your father" Tongtong's mother squatted down and hugged her daughter tightly, her eyes red.
Mom, I was wrong. Tongtong said sensibly.
Mom, I'm hungry. ”
Tongtong, I'll cook for you when my mother fixes the water pipes. As soon as she finished speaking, Tongtong's mother was squirted by the water from the kitchen pool pipe.
Mom, I want to ride the Ferris wheel. In the playground, Tongtong kept shaking her mother's arm.
Looking at the 160-meter-high "Star of Nanchang", my mother, who was a little afraid of heights, gritted her teeth and pulled Tongtong towards the ticket booth.
My baby daughter will be a schoolboy from today, and my mother will give you a new braid and send you to a new school in a while. "Tongtong didn't know that this braided mother practiced for a long time last night.
Mom, why did you pick me up so early today? ”
Because today, mom is going to take you to a place and give you a surprise. ”
What a surprise? ”
You'll find out when you get there. ”
Mom, isn't this Dad's unit? ”
yes, you see, who is that. ”
Tongtong! Tongtong saw that at the door of her father's unit, a middle-aged man wearing the work clothes of the AVIC test flight station and looking like the fourth uncle was trotting towards their mother and daughter with a suitcase, shouting his name as he ran.
What's the matter, girl. The middle-aged man looked at his daughter in front of him without saying a word, and his heart was full of love. What's the matter, girl. ”
Are you a father, or a fourth uncle? Tongtong asked.
Hearing his daughter's question, he immediately turned his head and asked her to look behind her left ear.
There are no moles. "It's Daddy, Daddy, Daddy......Tongtong kept calling her father.
Tongtong's father didn't speak, he raised his head and stared at the sky with his eyes wide open, as if something was about to flow out of his eyes......
