One big and one small are practicing love

At 8 o'clock on Tuesday morning, Liu Xiaochen handed over the film review to the person in charge of the school's film club and put the film review aside for the time being.

It would be half a month before the results of the film review competition came out, and Liu Xiaochen didn't care too much whether he would win. If it were really possible, I would be very satisfied if I could get an excellence award or something and receive a bonus of [-] yuan, which would make up for the taxi fare for the past half month, and if it was enough to treat Shen Liang to a meal.

But Liu Xiaochen knew that with so many college students participating in this competition, many of them majored in film and television. For someone who is learning and selling her skills now, it is not easy to win an award among others.

It’s just about following your heart and doing your best in what you want to do. I have learned a lot in the process. I have recognized myself through real actions, tested some principles, and tempered my character. I have gained a lot.

Liu Xiaochen was thinking about this as she walked on campus facing the sun, with the shadows of the trees and sunlight dancing on her body.

Class started at 10 o'clock in the morning. Liu Xiaochen carried his schoolbag and walked lightly and quickly to the school library.

I haven't been here for half a month. As soon as I entered this quiet space, Liu Xiaochen suddenly felt joy and tranquility.

I went straight to the literature floor on the third floor and sat down at a desk by the window with sunlight shining in. Instead of looking for a new book on the bookshelf, I took out "A Dream of Red Mansions" from my schoolbag.

Liu Xiaochen saw the fifty-sixth chapter of the first volume of "A Dream of Red Mansions" and planned to read the remaining four chapters this morning and return the first volume first.

In three days, the book is due to be returned. Thinking about it, it has been almost 2 months since the winter vacation, and I haven’t read half of this set of books. I’m really ashamed.

I looked at the time and saw that it was 8:16. I put my pen and notebook at hand and followed the bookmarks to page 762.

The moment I opened the book, I smelled a faint fragrance. It's the white cardboard of Chanel No. [-]. Every time the smell on the card fades, Liu Xiaochen sprays it twice on the cardboard. When reading, he can always smell the quiet fragrance and feel a faint feeling in his heart. joy.

I haven't watched "Dream of Red Mansions" for more than half a month, but I didn't expect that the cardboard still has a scent.

Liu Xiaochen picked up the white cardboard, brought it close to his nose and sniffed it for a few times. With a faint smile on his face, he lowered his head and read the book carefully.

It is said that Ping'er had dinner with Sister Feng, served and washed up, and then went to the place where she could explore her spring.

After reading this sentence, Liu Xiaochen frowned and wondered, forgetting what he said before. So I went back and read Chapter [-]. When I saw Sister Feng commenting on everyone, I couldn't help but laugh.

‘Huan’er is even more of a little frozen cat with furry hair, just waiting for a hot stove and fire pit for him to crawl into. It really makes me feel uncomfortable thinking about two people so far apart from each other coming out of the same mother's belly. Besides, Miss Lin and Miss Bao are good friends, but they are both relatives and it is difficult for them to take care of our housework. Moreover, one is a beautiful lamp, which will be broken by the wind; the other has made up his mind and "does not do his own business, does not open his mouth, and shakes his head when asked, but does not know." It is difficult to question him. …

Liu Xiaochen once again lamented that the ancients had strong minds in writing books and their language was rich and ingenious. At the same time, Liu Xiaochen finally connected the plot and continued to look forward.

After a while, Liu Xiaochen forgot the time, place, and himself, and was immersed in a state of mind that he had not seen for a long time. Until he read a certain plot, Liu Xiaochen suddenly felt like a dull knife. He closed his book and hid his face and cried quietly.

Mrs. Wang sent twelve opera singers home to find their parents and gave them some silver coins as payment. But most of them are unwilling to go home: some say that although they have parents, he only wants to sell us, and they were sold by him after leaving; some say that their parents are dead, or were sold by uncles and brothers; some say that there is no one Some are available; some are reluctant to part with them. Only four or five people are allowed to go.

After shedding tears for a while, Liu Xiaochen was in a daze and thought about why he felt so uncomfortable after reading this.

When Liu Xiaochen was 12 years old, his parents and younger brother had just passed away. The village chief tried his best to contact his relatives in Zhangye, Gansu Province. They all had sons and daughters, and they were all living a difficult life. No one wanted to adopt Liu Xiaochen.

In the end, only the second uncle Liu Xiaochen had never met was willing to adopt her.

After the village chief told Liu Xiaochen, although she felt scared to go to a strange place, after living in an empty home for two days, Liu Xiaochen had already experienced the engulfing fear. Now she just wanted to go to a place with adults.

When the second uncle came all the way to Xingtai, Wang Luoxia also appeared at the same time.

Wang Luoxia learned about Liu Xiaochen's situation, and after talking to her second uncle, she firmly stopped her second uncle from adopting Liu Xiaochen.

At that time, Liu Xiaochen didn't fully understand why Wang Luoxia did what she did, but now she finally understood deeply what it meant to be adopted by her second uncle.

The second uncle's family is also very poor and relies on farming for a living. There are three sons in the family, and they start working early. The second aunt broke her leg half a month ago, and there is no one at home to cook, wash clothes, or take care of the housework. The second uncle heard from the village chief that Liu Xiaochen was 12 years old and hardworking and capable. I want to take her back, do the things that the second aunt does, and at the same time serve the second aunt.

In the end, Wang Luoxia gave her second uncle a sum of money so that he would never think about adopting Liu Xiaochen again.

Wang Luoxia personally helped Liu Xiaochen take care of the funeral affairs of her parents and younger brother. Wang Luoxia lived and studied with Liu Xiaochen for half a year. During that time, Wang Luoxia repeatedly warned Liu Xiaochen not to take refuge in those relatives anymore and to be independent.
