Cinderella's Gypsophila

Standing at the door waiting for Qi Yan was Xia Lili, a girl from the class next door.

When I was young, maybe four or five years old, Xia Lili used to be Qi Yan's neighbor across the door.

When two people are naked, they often play together.

At that time, Xia Lili's mother had always disliked her father for being poor and unpromising. She would quarrel at every turn, and after the quarrel, she liked to beat her daughter to vent her anger, making Xia Lili cry every day.

Finally, one day, she packed up her things and left her uncle without hesitation, and went to Hong Kong, which had just returned, to work as a mistress for a wealthy businessman.

Later, my uncle took Xia Lili and moved away.

Later in primary school, Qi Yan and Xia Lili met again by coincidence.

I heard that after a few years, my uncle has married a new wife, and he is lucky to do business and become rich.

At a young age, Xia Lili wears pink, beautiful and fluffy coats with bows in winter.

The fox fur is warmer, much warmer than the cotton jacket.

"Qi Yan Qi Yan, stretch out your hand!"

At this moment, behind Qi Yan was a group of students in the class holding on to the door frame with wide-eyed eyes, watching aggressively without any disguise.

Outside the door, Xia Lili also smiled brightly, and took out a beautifully sewn small pocket.

Inside are colorful candies, all packaged in foreign countries, but from the pattern, we can see that there are coconut candies, coffee candies, fruit candies...

"Come on, pick what you like!"

The classmates in the class yelled and said: "Squad leader, pick what you like!"

"You take more!"

Everyone continued to boo: "Yes, yes, take more!"

"Just this? Just this? Just take this?"

"Sister-in-law is gone? Go slowly!"

"Sister-in-law's too much sugar can't be shared with us in the future!"

"Brother Yan, hehehe, you understand, those who see it have a share."

Everyone stretched out their paws.Qi Yan was not stingy, and gave most of the candies to the students.

He kept a few for himself, went back to his seat with his hands in his arms, thought about it, and threw one to Cheng Cheng as well.

The yellow packaging looks like sour lemon candy.

I gave it to you too!

He glanced at Cheng Sheng.

When you go back, don't complain to your mother that I isolated you, excluded you, and ignored you.I don't.

Cheng Sheng picked up the candy with his slender fingers.

But he didn't peel it off and eat it, he just stared blankly at Qi Yan.

The sunlight from the window was hitting his face with straight eyebrows.Quiet pupils of smoky gray, no one can see what they are thinking.

Qi Yan: "What's the matter? Look at me, you can't be...you can't even eat sugar?"

Cheng Sheng shook his head.

The class bell rang, and Qi Yan didn't bother to bother him.

In class, I secretly ate the remaining candies one by one, feeling happy.

It's just that when I was eating, I could always feel the gaze cast by my brother beside me.

He took one apart, and my brother took a sneak peek.

Qi Yan was confused, wondering what are you doing?Are you a teacher, you still care about me eating sugar in class?

He stares.Cheng Cheng lowered his eyes, and finally stopped looking this way.

The teacher is on the podium, talking about the area of ​​the trapezoid.It's too simple, Qi Yan will understand it as soon as he hears it.

Bored, so I looked outside through the window and lost my mind.

Under the sycamore tree outside is the roof of the two-story preschool building.

Several wild cats are basking in the winter sun leisurely on the pink tiles of the roof.The kitten snuggled up to the big cat, looking very comfortable, and the big cat was licking the kitten.

Qi Yan found himself really miserable now.

Even seeing a kitten with its mother cat by its side makes me feel uncomfortable.

The last candy.

White packaging, fancy color text.

Qi Yan guessed that it was butterscotch, but it turned out to be yogurt candy, which was sour and sweet.

Charlie's always has a bunch of good imports.

...But obviously, her current mother is also a stepmother.

He is only 23 and four years old. It is said that he is a college student who has just graduated and often comes to pick up Xia Lili from school.

Qi Yan has seen her several times, mother and daughter holding hands, talking and laughing.

If it weren't for being too young, just looking at the closeness of the two of them, it would be better to be a real mother than a real mother.

Qi Yan still remembers that one day after school, it rained heavily.

The roads around the school were very slippery. Xia Lili was wearing a small flower umbrella, and her stepmother was wearing a little red umbrella. The two held hands tightly all the way.When passing by a big puddle, there was really no way around it, so the new mother hugged Xia Lili directly.

Although the girl is petite, she is not a baby after all, and it is definitely not light for a woman.

The muddy water on the sandals also wet her light green silk skirt.

But she held her tight, with a smile on her face.

At that time, Qi Yan still had a home and a mother at home.Although I saw this scene, I didn't feel much about it.

It wasn't until I met Meng Xinlan that I suddenly realized...

The gap between people is so big.

Xia Lili has never been bullied at all.

Pampered.Beautiful dresses every day, all kinds of imported snacks, much loved, with the bright pride of a little princess in her eyes.

...and him?Where is his sister?

Qi Yan shook his head and pinched himself.

Forget it.

What's the use of thinking about it?Take classes well.

……

Go home at noon.

Aunt Meng is fully supported by Qi Yan's father and does not go to work. She is supposed to cook at home for a whole morning.

However, the chicken soup that was made had no taste at all. There were scallions and a large layer of yellow oil floating in it.Unpalatable.

Meng Xinlan: "You don't understand. Put less salt, so as to avoid high blood pressure in the future, I'm doing it for your own good!"

Meng Xinlan's words are imperial edicts.

Whatever she said, Qi Shengbin nodded in agreement.

Holding the chicken that can't be chewed, he opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Yeah, it's delicious."

Qi Yan: "..."

Facing this kind of unpalatable food, he just wanted to poke two chopsticks of fermented bean curd and deal with it with rice.

But before reaching out, his father slapped him on the hand: "What kind of fermented bean curd are you eating! Good chicken soup and chicken, don't you know how to eat it?! Aunt Meng worked so hard to make it for you, I don't know what is good or bad!"

Cheng Cheng's food is still completely different from everyone else's.

The sick meal also looks poor and bland.

But anyway, the diced carrots and beans are finely chopped, at least it seems that they have tried it seriously.

Of course Qi Yan didn't have enough for the terrible lunch.

Meng Xinlan was obviously upset, with a look of grievance, Qi Shengbin saw it.After the envoy Qi Yan washed the dishes, he called him downstairs on the pretext of pumping up the bicycle.

"What do you mean?"

Qi Yan: "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean by eating a little bit in front of Aunt Meng? This is not a slap in the face on purpose, it means that her cooking is not good?"

Qi Yan: "It's really not delicious."

"Fart! If it doesn't taste good, you have to give it to me! It's good to have someone cook for you. Is your Aunt Meng a servant in our family? Cooking for you is a kindness, and you still have the face to pick and choose!"

Qi Yan couldn't help it: "If you don't know how to cook such an unpalatable meal, don't cook it. If you cook it like her, it's not sincere for people to eat."

"You're still going strong!" Qi Shengbin stretched out his leg and kicked him, leaving black marks on Qi Yan's pants, "Don't eat anything! It's true that children nowadays are so serious that they are picky and picky when they have chickens to eat." Pick! Isn’t it delicious? If you think it’s not tasty, it means you’re not hungry! In the age of really hungry, when there was no food, your grandfather could eat grass roots and tree bark!”

Qi Yan is convinced.

Compared with the time of famine, the fallacy is like this.

No one can argue with this logic.

Upstairs, into the house, on the bed hungry and sleepy.He covered his swollen head with a pillow.

Cheng Cheng: "Xiao Yan."

Qi Yan was weak: "Don't talk to me."

It's really powerless.Although I was angry, I wanted to yell at people, and I wanted to vent, but everything was meaningless.

There can be no end to the quarrel, and he will be unlucky enough to be beaten, and now he just wants a moment of peace.

The room was quiet, no one spoke.

After a while.The palm was lightly poked by something plastic.

"Xiao Yan, here you are."

It's yellow and clear, it's a lemon candy.

In the morning he gave it to his brother, but his brother had nothing to eat.

"You ate too little at noon," he said. "Eat the sugar."

...well, less.

Because I eat less, my hungry stomach hurts.

But what's the use of giving him a candy?

Qi Yan was almost laughed at by this popularity.

Is there something wrong with this person's brain?He can't even eat enough to eat, but can he be full after eating a piece of candy?

Really served.

Meng Xinlan's brain is sick, his father's brain is sick, and his brother's brain is even more sick.

The whole family is sick, he doesn't even bother to scold!

……

After a short sleep, it's time to go to school in the afternoon.

Downstairs from Qi Yan's unit, on the short road leading to the carport, there is a small wasteland full of garbage and neglected.

Overgrown grass, bottles and confetti.

In the depths of the small wasteland, several wild strawberries grew.

Bright red.

In the cold winter, small plants that can grow sweet fruits are just like justice in the world.

But because there are garbage dumps around, this strawberry grows every year, but no one ever picks it.Many mothers with children at home lie to them that wild strawberries are poisonous and they will die if they eat them in order to prevent their children from being greedy.

Qi Yan's mother coaxed his younger sister Xiaoyue in the same way two years ago.

And now.

Qi Yan was very unpromising, he glanced at it again and again, but out of the corner of his eye he couldn't get away from the little strawberry in the garbage dump.

Of course it's not poisonous, and it might be delicious.

...simply pathetic.

Already mentally reduced to a child who picks up garbage and eats?

My stomach is empty, and I have to drive my brother to school.

Qi Yan laughed at himself.

And he took a detour.

Instead of going to the market where fish and ducks are slaughtered and the smell is smelly, I went to the small one-story residential area with rough roads, quiet afternoons and few people.

Cheng Sheng discovered that the way to school had changed.

"Xiao Yan, did you go right?"

Qi Yan was annoyed: "No."

"But why don't you go to the market?"

"I don't want to go."

"Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan," the elder brother tugged at him, "but there is no one on this road we are taking now."

Qi Yan gritted his teeth, he was going to be pissed off by this man.

Damn, what is the detour for?Not for you!Do you have to explain sentence by sentence to understand?The son of a bad woman really deserves to be the son of a bad woman, full of bad thoughts, good intentions like a donkey's liver and lungs!

"What? No one, are you scared?"

"What's wrong with no one, no one broke the law? Are you still worried that I will kidnap and sell you?"

"I don't even look at you sick and deaf. Is anyone willing to buy it?"

"..."

"..."

"no."

After a while, when we were almost at school, my brother said in a low voice, "I remember passing by the market in the morning, and saw a stall selling candied biscuits and minced meat burritos."

It's okay if he doesn't talk about these things, but Qi Yan gets even hungrier when he talks about it.

When I was hungry, I became even more angry: "Yes, why do you still want to eat? Aren't you unable to eat anything?"

Cheng Cheng: "Yes. But Xiao Yan, I have pocket money."

Qi Yan was still angry: "Isn't it great to have pocket money?"

Cheng Cheng: "Xiao Yan, I have pocket money and I can buy you food. Don't you want to eat something?"

Qi Yan: "..."

Qi Yan: "Huh?"

Cheng Cheng: "I think you haven't eaten enough at noon."

At that moment, Qi Yan really wanted to stand upright and scold others.

I want to say that I am not hungry, roll on.

It's useless to please me less.

However, he was helpless, and there was a groan in his stomach.He is really hungry.

It's not time for class yet, so I pass by the gate of the school, and I still have time to go around to the vegetable market.A new drawer of biscuits has just been baked, and the aroma of sesame seeds is overflowing. Next to it, there is a pot of oyster sauce skewers, minced meat, and tea eggs. There are all kinds of delicious food and drinks.

Qi Yan: "Do you really want to buy it for me? How much money can you give?"

Cheng Cheng: "Just pick, you can buy them all."

Qi Yan: "..." Really?

The elder brother nodded, looking very serious.

It makes Qi Yan feel like a fool not to take advantage of something.

So he was unambiguous, and directly ordered minced meat burritos with eggs, and extra spicy sesame seed cakes with oyster sauce skewers.

During the period, he peeked at Cheng Cheng, but Cheng Cheng didn't change his expression. Okay, then he ordered mochi and glutinous rice cakes again.

Anyway, his stomach is a bottomless pit, he can eat anything.

Just eat, let go and eat!

eat poor you!

He asked for so much, not only did my brother not feel sorry for the money, but he also helped poke the hot milk in the pot: "Get some to drink, too, or it will be too dry, how about chocolate milk?"

Well, of course!

Ordinary milk is fifty cents a bag, and chocolate milk is one and two.He hadn't had a few drinks in his life.

I used to buy it occasionally at home, and I still had to share it with my sister.

Cheng Cheng actually bought him two bags at a time, shocked.

A bag of chocolates, a bag of strawberries.After doing the math, it cost almost seven yuan, seven yuan!Astronomical figures!Qi Yan has never been so extravagant!

Qi Yan: "Are you... so rich?"

Cheng Cheng: "My mother gives me one hundred a month."

Qi Yan: "So many? I'm only thirty!"

His [-] is still based on the fact that Qi Shengbin has to go out of the car and often can't get him lunch and dinner, so he needs to go out to eat by himself.

There was not enough to eat at all, and there was absolutely nothing left.

My brother is different, he doesn't have to go out to eat, and he can't spend money at all.What I took out was still 100 yuan bills, and it was the end of the month.

In this case, Qi Yan immediately decided to help him spend.

Anyway, it's Meng Xinlan's money, so it's not for nothing!

"I still want a soda."

Cheng Cheng: "Okay."

"I still want to eat that."

Serve with good corn flavor.It costs three yuan a pack, and it is usually only available on birthdays.

"purchase."

Qi Yan has never enjoyed such a luxurious set meal for more than ten yuan a meal.Entering the class with Haojia in his hands, the boy booed loudly again.

"Squad leader, rich people, whoever sees it has a share!"

Qi Yan: "No, go and go!"

"Hahaha Qi Yan, you also have times when you are stingy? Just take a sip~~~"

"Let's go!"

Regardless.

Sugar can be divided, but sugar is not enough to eat.

And to be honest, Qi Yan doesn't like sweets very much.

Corn tastes different.Every slice melted in his mouth and was delicious, something he'd always wanted to eat.He cherishes it.

Cheng Sheng didn't speak.With a little smile on the side, watching him silently.

Suddenly a small ball of puffed corn was stuffed into his mouth, sweet, salty and salty.

Qi Yan: "You eat one too."

In this way, even if Meng Xinlan finds out, my brother is also an accomplice.

My brother didn't take the pocket money to buy him food.

My brother bought something for himself, so he took a few bites, that's all!
