Four-year-old Qin Hongfei was so angry that she wanted to cry loudly, but she also wanted to save face, so she walked in front angrily. When she encountered a puddle, she stepped hard on it to express her protest against the adults.
At night, she rolled up the quilt and angrily told her sister that we would ignore our father for a month, and then closed her eyes to sleep.
When she opened her eyes the next morning, she saw a white cotton ball, a super big one.
Qin Fei deliberately put it in front of her sister and waited for her to wake up, because she thought her sister would be happy to see it.
This is indeed the case .
When Qin Hongfei saw the cotton candy, she opened the quilt and reached out to take it. "Sister, where did you get it?"
Qin Fei said, "Dad made it and said it was to atone for Fei's sin." She also had one and was eating it in her hand.
Qin Hongfei was happy and no longer angry: "I am not that stingy."
It was so early in the morning, and her father made cotton candy specially to appease her.
Qin Hongfei decided not to be angry for a month, and ran out, and then saw many children surrounding their father to watch him make cotton candy.
Qin Jiangke, who was in his twenties, was wearing military green overalls. There was a child on his right leg, one lying on his left, and one hanging around his neck. He was making cotton candy for everyone with a bright smile. This was to appease her father, but Qin Hongfei was proud to push him over and took a position with her back leaning in Qin Jiangke's arms.
Qin Jiangke asked his daughter, "Are you happy?"
Qin Hongfei replied, "Just barely." Seeing the sweat on her father's forehead, she felt distressed. She wanted to say, "Dad, thank you for getting up early in the morning to make marshmallows for me." But before she could say anything, her mother came.
Not only did her mother come, she also had a marshmallow in her hand, which was bigger than all of theirs, and it had a pattern on it, and it was pink.
Xia Lu came over and squatted to wipe her daughter's face, then said to her husband, "I just said it casually... You actually did this so early in the morning, making me a laughing stock."
"What's the big deal? Let alone cotton candy, I have to find a way if you want the stars in the sky." Qin Jiangke leaned over and took a bite of the cotton candy in his wife's hand, and in order to make it easier for him to eat, Xia Lu also raised her hand forward -
Qin 'light bulb' Hongfei felt like a bolt from the blue!
So Dad didn't do it to compensate her at all - just because Mom wanted it, so she was just a by-product!
The sadness in her heart was like a small river, she bit the cotton candy aggrievedly, one bite, two bites, three bites, and soon ate it all up. The baby felt bitter in his heart and needed sweetness.
Then, she had a fever.
Maybe it was too bitter and not sweet enough, so she had a fever.
Qin Hongfei felt dizzy from the fever. She felt that she was being carried on her back. When she opened her eyes, she found that it was her father who was carrying her, her mother who was wiping her sweat, and her sister who was looking up at her father's legs...
She rarely got sick, but when she did, it was very severe. The doctor said that if she didn't get rid of the fever, she would go crazy. In order to help her get rid of the fever, her father didn't sleep well for two days. Qin Hongfei kept humming in discomfort. She finally fell asleep. When she woke up, she felt a pair of warm hands on her head. When she opened her eyes, she met a pair of worried eyes. It was her father's.
"Dad..." She stretched out her hand and asked for a hug.
"Good girl! You're awesome. You've defeated the disease." Qin Jiangke picked up his daughter happily, moving very gently.
Then Qin Hongpin saw Ms. Xia also sleeping next to the bed. The nurse came in and said with a bright smile, "Baby, you really have a good father and mother. I've been watching over you for two days, and this is the first time I've seen such parents..."
"Not just father and mother." Qin Jiangke lifted his daughter up, and coaxed her with their foreheads touching: "Sister is also watching over Bei, but sister is a child who needs to sleep, so I asked grandma to take her back, and she will be back soon. Bei, there are many people who love you."
Qin Hongpin was easy to coax, and she smiled brightly in an instant -
Ms. Xia was restless because her daughter had a fever and was talking in her sleep.
Qin Hongfei crawled over on the bed and touched her mother's face, then took a small quilt to cover her mother and lay down, looking at her face to face. Then, Qin Jiangke came in, took off his wife's shoes, and carried her to the bed. During this time, she woke up and went to see her daughter anxiously.
At that moment, Qin Hongfei felt full of love.
Qin Jiangke also said, "The fever has subsided, it's okay, you should have a good sleep."
Then Xia Lu looked at her daughter excitedly, and then reached out her hand. Qin Hongfei leaned on her mother's arms, and the mother and daughter fell asleep again. When she woke up again, her mother was still sleeping. Her father was sitting at the head of the bed, reading a book and watching. When he saw the girl sticking her head out of his wife's arms and looking around curiously, he smiled, "The little naughty boy is awake, why don't you come out?"
Qin Hongfei raised her hand to show her father, but her mother kept holding her hand, "Mom, you are too timid. You have to sleep with me." Fei is with her...otherwise she will cry."
Qin Jiangke saw a trace of heartache in his wife's eyes, and reached out to touch his wife's head: "Yes, mom is very timid, she needs dad, and she also needs Fei and Fei, so dad should be better to mom, better, and better."
Qin Hongfei nodded as if she understood, so dad put mom first, "Mom is so timid, what if we are not with her, but it doesn't matter, I will always be with her."
Qin Jiangke laughed, hugged his daughter and tapped her nose, "Little guy, don't steal your father's job..."
"Your mother is accompanied by dad."
"You...will go with your own husband in the future."
"Dad will accompany mom for the rest of her life! Fei and Fei will have their own people to accompany in the future."
"Nonsense, dad didn't accompany mom for the rest of her life." Qin Hongfei suddenly turned hostile, "You were accompanying mom when you suddenly disappeared."
"Well, so dad broke his promise." Qin Jiangke's tone was still so gentle, but with a hint of melancholy, "I'm sorry, Fei! But dad really loves you so much."
"..."
Qin Hongfei suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, her breathing was a little unstable. She reached out and touched her chest, which was wet on her face, and it was also very tight. She looked around, but there was no Qinjiangke or hospital around.
The quilt beside her moved, and Qin Fei opened her eyes in confusion, "Ping?"
Qin Hongfei let go of the clothes that were grabbing her chest and slowed down her voice: "It's okay! Get up and drink some water, you continue to sleep."
Dad's dream!
Things that happened when she was four years old were actually blurred in her memory. It was a long, long time ago. After all, she traveled through time and space, walked for more than 20 years, and came back and walked for so many years.
But after her father went missing, she seldom dreamed about him! She seemed to have dreamed about him more frequently when the Qin Shi case happened. In her dreams, her father seemed to be still alive and by her side, but every time she woke up, he was gone. Later, she stopped dreaming about him -
why did she start dreaming about him again?
Was it because she accompanied Ms. Xia to sweep the grave?
