Three or Two Things about Rebirth

A coat fell on her, blocking the cold wind. Qiu Luming turned his head and saw that it was his second brother.

After seeing his second brother, Qiu Luming suddenly felt that he had suffered the greatest injustice in the world. His eyes turned red and he opened his mouth, but could not say anything.

Qiu Jiashu didn't even look at her. He just clipped one of her luggage onto the back seat of the bicycle, hung another bag on the handlebars, and then put his arm around her shoulders. "Let's go home."

The word "home" sounds so beautiful!

Qiu Luming smiled, tears welling up on her cheeks and flowing into her scarf. She whispered, "Second brother, I miss you so much."

"You missed me and kept me wandering around outside for ten days. Don't you know how much your parents miss you?" Qiu Jiashu patted the bicycle frame and said, "Come on, sit on the frame, and I will carry you home!"

Qiu Luming laughed so hard that he doubled over. He took a step back, wiped away his tears and said, "Stop teasing you!"

"Alas, who said that I am too short to reach the main beam and can only sit on it? Now, I will let her sit on the main beam and see if I can reach it!"

"Sit down!" Qiu Luming squeezed in front of his second brother, "Hold on, if you fall, I'll tell my mom for you!"

"Just get in the car!"

Qiu Luming sat on the bicycle frame and moved his butt. No matter how he sat, he felt a little uncomfortable. He had lost five or six kilograms in the past few days, and it turned out that all the weight was on his butt.

Qiu Jiashu stepped over with his right leg and sat on the seat. The car suddenly shook, Qiu Luming screamed, Qiu Jiashu laughed, and pushed the ground with his left leg, and the car moved forward steadily.

Qiu Luming leaned over the handlebars, childhood memories flooding back to her. Her second brother held her in his arms, carried her on his back, taught her to walk, taught her to swim, but he could not teach her to speak, nor could he teach her homework, which made the young boy so angry that he burst into tears. When she was obsessed with Qiong Yao's novels and rebelled, her second brother was sadder than her mother. Her second brother beat up all the boys in her class, and naturally, he was retaliated against by the boys' brothers. Someone hit her on the forehead with a brick, and she had to get four stitches. If it weren't for her father's carefully prepared medicine, she would have been left with a scar. When she went to Harbin Normal University for training, her second brother specially sought public security training opportunities just to be able to take care of her.

At this moment, happiness fills my heart and is about to overflow.

Qiu Jiashu was so eye-catching that people on the street looked at them. Qiu Luming felt a little embarrassed. After all, he was an adult and was still sitting on the beam.

Qiu Jiashu deliberately rode to a pothole on the road and bumped twice. Qiu Luming screamed in pain. Qiu Jiashu laughed. She was so angry that she hit her second brother's hand, "Hate, hate, really hate!"

The brother and sister paraded through the streets and returned home laughing happily.

Seeing his parents standing in the cold wind at the door from a distance, Qiu Luming suddenly choked up. Qiu Jiashu said, "It's not good to have chapped faces!"

Qiu Luming quietly wiped away his tears with his scarf, cleared his throat, smiled and waved, "Dad! Mom! I'm back!"

He Manshu came down the stairs and came forward, but Qiu Jiye retreated back to the yard.

"Are you tired?" He Manshu didn't look into Qiu Luming's eyes, but just patted her mechanically, as if there was countless dust on her body.

"Not tired!" Qiu Luming looked up and saw his father holding the door of the house, waiting for them to come in.

——Relatives didn’t look into her eyes or make eye contact with her, for fear that she would lose control and cry.

The moment he stepped into the house, Qiu Luming felt at ease.

Entering the kitchen from the side building, a familiar smell hit her face. She turned around and hugged He Manshu, "Mom...they all bullied me..."

"Don't cry, don't cry. Mom knows you've been wronged. Don't cry..." He Manshu also burst into tears. "It's all my fault. The person I chose is not good. It's all my fault..."

Qiu Luming cried so hard that it shook the earth and he cried for a very long time.

*

When he woke up in a daze, the hard and warm kang floor beneath him reminded Qiu Luming that he had returned home.

Lifting the blanket off his body, Qiu Luming sat up and heard someone ask, "Mom, where is Luming?"

It’s my second sister-in-law Fang Yuan.

"Shh, she's sleeping in the back room. She's lost a lot of weight in the past few days. She must not have eaten or slept well. I'll call her when the meal is ready."

"Oh oh." Fang Yuan also lowered his voice and tiptoed into the living room.

Qiu Luming looked at his watch. It was already five o'clock in the evening and it was completely dark outside.

She didn't even have lunch. After crying enough in her mother's arms, she fell asleep and slept for six or seven hours.

It’s still a relief to be back home.

Qiu Luming picked up a small mirror and looked at her eyes. They were slightly swollen. She used her fingers to gather her hair and tied it up again. Then she got off the kang and pushed the door open to go out. "Mom, I'm so hungry!"

"Ah, you're awake, let's have dinner soon!" He Manshu was flipping the chicken in the pot. She turned around and looked at her for a few times, "There's hot water in the kettle. Add some cold water and wash your face. Your second sister-in-law has already gotten off work. Hurry up and tell your second brother!"

"Luming, wash your face quickly and call me!" Fang Yuan said in the living room.

After Qiu Luming washed his face, he applied lotion on his face while helping Fang Yuan set the table. "Second sister-in-law, I bought you some cosmetics."

"Really? That's great!" Fang Yuan smiled and came over to pinch Qiu Luming's face, saying, "You've lost weight. Really, who can stand such hardship? Running back and forth twice in more than ten days!"

Qiu Luming smiled and said, "It's just right for losing weight."

"Why lose weight? You're in perfect shape."

As soon as the second door opened, Qiu Jiye and Qiu Jiashu came back together.

"Why did you come back just now? Why didn't you reply to my pager?"

Qiu Jiashu put his cold hands on Fang Yuan's face and said, "I'll go home and heat up the kang first, so that the house won't be freezing cold after dinner."

Fang Yuan screamed from the cold, and chased Qiu Jiashu to tickle him a few times. Suddenly, both of them stopped and looked at Qiu Luming, fearing that they had irritated Qiu Luming.

"Go on!" Qiu Luming waved his hand and went to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

When dinner was almost over, Qiu Luming said, "I've made up my mind. I will break up with Fei Yuanhang."

"Ah, is it that serious?" Fang Yuan exclaimed.

"As for that. Even if we don't break up, we won't be happy." Qiu Luming said calmly.

"What a pity." Fang Yuan looked at Qiu Luming sympathetically, "It will be hard to find someone better than Fei Yuanhang in Jiayang. You two are such a perfect match, are you willing to let him go?"

"I'm reluctant. But what else can I do? If we don't break up, whenever he catches a cold or has a fever, his mother will say it's my fault. Over time, he will definitely be affected. He'll have bad luck three times a year. This thorn has already pierced his heart."

Qiu Luming said to Fang Yuan, "There is a kind of mother who can add points to her son, and there is a kind of mother who can only reduce the points of her son. Second sister-in-law, you are so lucky."

Fang Yuan agreed deeply and nodded repeatedly.

After dinner, Qiu Jiashu and his wife rode their bikes home.

He Manshu came to Qiu Luming who was washing dishes and said, "Yoyo, don't be impulsive. Think about it for a week before making a final decision."

During these ten days, He Manshu became no less thinner than Qiu Luming. She had two obvious bags under her eyes and looked extremely haggard.

"Mom, Fei Yuanhang has my pager number, and also knows Third Brother's cell phone number and our home phone number. If he wants to contact me, he can find someone to call. Now we have no news, and Principal Fei hasn't called. Their intentions are very clear."

"Alas. I'm afraid you'll regret it. After all, there's nothing wrong with your relationship! Just go back to Jiayang less often and have less contact with his mother in the future!"

"Mom, I can't handle this."

"What if, what if you two break up, and Yuanhang never has any more bad luck, wouldn't that prove the saying that he's a jinx?"

"That's good too. At least he is safe." Qiu Luming was washing the dishes vigorously. Several bowls in the basin made clinking sounds.

He Manshu closed her eyes helplessly, returned to the living room, and collapsed on the sofa.

The current situation is really unfavorable for my daughter.

If they don't break up, and if Fei Yuanhang has any accident again, everyone in the county will say that their daughter is a jinx. The key is that life is so long, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no headaches or fevers. Even if there is no accident, they have already torn their faces apart, and the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not be good.

If they break up and Fei Yuanhang still has an accident, it means that this guy is unlucky and has a bad fate, and it has nothing to do with Youyou.

If nothing unexpected happens, the rumors that Yoyo is an unlucky star will undoubtedly be confirmed. In the future, no mother-in-law will agree to her son marrying Yoyo!

He Manshu stroked her forehead with her right hand, feeling guilty. What she had been thinking just now was that they should just break up, and it would be best if Yuanhang did something bad happen again, so that she could silence the gossips and clear her daughter's name.
