Chapter 1981 Regret
The conversation between the two girls came to Xiao Xiao's ears.
"You idiot!"
"It's so embarrassing!"
"What happened just now?"
"Why are you making strange noises suddenly for no reason?"
"I was unconscious."
"Did you hear what that boy said?"
"It's too straightforward."
"I couldn't hold it back all of a sudden."
"Oh, that's right."
The middle-aged woman subconsciously looked around.
There are not many customers in the outdoor cafe.
But at first glance, they are indeed young people.
People of her age have never seen the second one.
Then she is pretty easy to recognize.
"Sit down and talk."
The middle-aged woman greeted the two young men.
After hanging up the phone before, she still regretted her impulse.
How could you believe a call from a stranger so easily?
Was she really going to meet this stranger?
Will everything be okay?
However, she made appointments with others over the phone.
She was too embarrassed to let others go.
However, now that she saw the real person, she felt slightly relieved.
Although a person's appearance cannot be completely trusted.
However, a good temperament makes people feel at ease.
These two young men looked very well-educated.
Probably not a liar.
And
How did the liar know about Big Bird?
Thinking of the big bird, the middle-aged woman's heart seemed to sink, and she seemed to be getting more and more restless.
She opened her mouth, "That..."
But soon, she closed her mouth again.
She looked around.
The locations of this outdoor cafe are widely spaced.
Moreover, today is not a holiday, so there are not many customers.
No one is close.
If you pay attention to the volume, your words should not be heard by others.
……
She is no longer the ignorant child she was when she was a child.
She knows how special Big Bird is.
Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder, did the big bird really exist?
Or is it just a little girl’s innocent and beautiful fantasy?
But now...
She looked at the two young men in front of her with complicated expressions.
She never thought that one day, someone would come to her about Big Bird.
In other words...the big bird in her memory is real...
Her past experiences are all true
……
"Auntie, do you remember this puppet?"
Xiao Xiao opened his palms to let the puppet appear more clearly in front of the middle-aged woman.
Looking at the puppet in the young man's hand, the middle-aged woman was a little confused.
This puppet...
Gradually, the confusion dissipated, and the middle-aged woman's eyes opened wider and wider, "This puppet..."
She looked at Xiao Xiao, "Is it mine?"
She couldn't help but reached out and took the puppet to take a closer look, her face showing some certainty, "That's right."
"This is the puppet I made."
The middle-aged woman was very emotional, "This is the first puppet I made when I was a child."
"It's an assignment assigned by the teacher in the handicraft class."
"It's also the only puppet I made."
"After all, I'm not very good at handwork."
"You can tell from this puppet."
The middle-aged woman looked at the puppet in her hand and said, "It's really ugly."
It's just that the middle-aged woman said she was disgusted, but there was a bit of a smile in the corners of her eyes and brows.
"Where did you find this puppet?"
The middle-aged woman was curious, "I don't even remember where I put this puppet."
"A friend of mine bought it at the grocery store."
"Grocery store?"
The middle-aged woman looked stunned.
Grocery store…….
"Ah!"
The middle-aged woman whispered.
She remembered.
"I put this doll in the grocery store."
The middle-aged woman shook her head. My memory is really bad.
"Did the boss keep it until now?"
"It was also bought by your friend..."
The corners of the middle-aged woman's mouth raised slightly, "After so many years, this puppet has finally been sold."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
The fact that Zhuge Yun bought all the dolls in the grocery store was not revealed.
Especially this puppet was given to Zhuge Yun by the boss as a supplement.
"I forgot about it."
“When I first put the puppets in the grocery store, I was looking forward to receiving a call from my boss.”
“But the boss’s call never came.”
"I'm too embarrassed to go to the store to inquire."
"Girls, especially adolescent girls, are thin-skinned and feel that it is a shame that their puppets cannot be sold."
"As time went by, I forgot about this puppet."
"I didn't expect that after so many years..."
"I saw the puppet again."
……
The middle-aged woman had a slightly nostalgic look on her face.
How long has it been since I thought of myself as a child...
Looking at the doll, she seemed to see the little girl scratching her head and scratching her head, struggling with the needle and thread with a painful look on her face.
She complained that her mother refused to help and that the homework assigned by the teacher was too troublesome...
Accidentally, the needle pricked my finger.
At that moment, a layer of mist appeared in her eyes.
Of course, she didn't cry.
Those are just physiological tears.
She has never been a crybaby since she was a child.
But Big Bird...
The middle-aged woman was stunned.
She remembered.
Big Bird seemed worried about her appearance at that time.
She opened her mouth bravely and showed a big smile.
Moreover, after a moment of sharp pain, the pain became bearable.
She blinked and it was fine.
Then...
The middle-aged woman lowered her eyes, looked at the puppet in her hand, and the corners of her mouth curved upward.
There is a hint of girlish innocence and romance between her eyebrows and eyes.
That night, the big bird flew her into the sky.
……
The house below is as small as an ant.
The stars and the moon were so close to her, it seemed like she could reach out and touch them.
she cheered and screamed.
The corners of his grinning mouth never closed.
……
Now that I think about it...
Even though it was my own personal experience, it still felt so incredible.
It's like a dream.
In fact, when I grew up, I really regarded the memories related to Big Bird as my dreams, right?
The middle-aged woman's expression became a little gloomy.
The feeling of sadness in her heart made her sigh.
……
"Auntie, why did you want to sell this puppet back then?"
Meng Jixi suddenly asked.
After all, the middle-aged woman doesn't look like she hates this puppet.
More importantly...
This puppet also has the shared memory of the middle-aged woman and the Chongming Bird.
Why would a middle-aged woman want to sell such a commemorative doll?
……
"Why?"
The middle-aged woman murmured, her fingers caressing the doll unconsciously.
"Yeah, why?"
The smile on the middle-aged woman's lips was bitter.
"...I regret it very much."
The middle-aged woman's voice was a little hoarse.
If these two young people hadn't come over today...she wouldn't have seen the puppet again...she wouldn't have remembered the past...and she wouldn't have felt anything.
But...
ps: Thank you Qianqiong Qianjue for the reward~(*︶*)!
