Spring is coming
Chapter 23
Chunxin still followed Xueli. Xueli begged her like that, even though she was reluctant in every possible way, she still couldn't be ruthless.
They ran like crazy, afraid of being chased, they ran up the mountain, their summer shirts were short, they were scratched by something, their bodies hurt everywhere, and they didn't care about it, they just knew how to run.
In the silent night sky, the stars and the moon cling together, until the sky in the east turns fish-belly white, above the undulating black mountains, the quiet blue and white is dyed with magnificent and dreamy colors because of the rising sun that is about to leap out.
Gradually being able to see the road in the forest clearly, Xueli said, "Stop and rest for a while."
They sat on the raised tree roots, their arms and legs exposed in the snow were covered with slender bloodstains, Chun Xin lowered his eyes and used two fingers to pull out the small thorns on the flesh.
Chun Xin was wearing a big school uniform dug out from the brick building of the dog meat restaurant, the clothes almost dragged to his knees, and there was snow in front of him, but he didn't suffer any injuries.
With hot tears dripping on her arms, Xueli looked down, "You sprinkle salt on my wound."
Chun Xin was still crying, "I didn't."
Xue Li calmly said: "Salt is salty, tears are also salty, falling on the wound, it is hot and painful."
"Really?" She looked up with tears in her eyes.
Shirley said, "Of course."
As a result, a soft and moist touch swept over the skin, and Yuri lost control of her expression again, opening her mouth wide in surprise, "What are you doing!"
"I licked it off for you." Chun Xin was still smacking his mouth, "It's really salty, why?"
"No..." Xueli held her forehead, "Why did you lick me?"
"Puppy is like this." Chun Xin said: "Puppy will lick the wounded part of his body, and cat will also lick, so it must be useful."
She moved her mouth, her eyes were fixed on a certain place, Xueli was in a bad mood, and sure enough she said again: "Saliva is not salty, I..."
"Let's go!" Xueli hurriedly pulled her to stand up, "Run, don't be caught up in a while."
Chun Xin wanted to take off his clothes for her to wear, but she didn't want it, so he just said: "From now on, you have to listen to my words, and you can't be self-willed anymore, you understand?"
She's behaved now, with a muffled "um", "Got it."
I was also tired, and my speed gradually slowed down, and I was able to avoid the thorns and branches that cut the flesh. Xueli said: "You have to trust me, I will never harm you, I really can't stay in that place, we have to go home and find grandparents. "
Chun Xin sobbed and said, "Grandma kicked me out."
"No, she was angered by Yin Yuanchang, and you know her temper, she is an old lady, let's let her go."
Xueli began to count grandma's good things in detail.
"Last semester, when it rained one day, grandma came to school to bring you clothes, do you remember?"
Chun Xin said "I remember", and Xueli said, "That's right, she's just a little bit poisonous and has a bad temper, but she really cares about you."
"And you are not in good health. Grandma takes you to exercise every day. It is thanks to grandma whether we are in good health or not."
"And grandpa, do you often secretly give you money to buy snacks?"
"They just used the wrong way to love you. At least they didn't starve you, freeze you, and didn't want to sell you. The older generation, it's this kind of education, it can't be turned around, there's no way , just bear with it."
"We are still young, life is still very long, grandparents are old, how long can we live? Before you grow up, they may not be here, and we still have a long way to go, and there will always be good things in the future of."
"I still have to go home and go back to our big bed. Grandma's mattress is so soft, the quilt is also fragrant, and the flowers in the yard are blooming. Don't you want to see it? When we go back, The beans are ripe too..."
Xueli talked a lot. It was the first time someone told her these principles, but she didn't really understand them, and she still felt very uncomfortable. She didn't miss the big bed, flowers and beans she said much.
She thought of grandma when she was good, but also when she was bad. What lingered in her mind was that she kicked her out without saying a word or listening to her explanation.
She didn't have time to react before she was dragged away to a completely strange place. She finally got used to it, and was taken away by strangers, locked in a cage, and pulled into the mountains by car.
Every time she thinks it won't get any worse, something unexpected will happen again, dragging her to a deeper abyss; every time she gets up, exhausted and about to go ashore, there are already people waiting on it, stepping on her fingers hard The ground crushed her, or pretended to pull her, and then pushed her down with a smile.
The soft armor of childhood and ignorance wraps a fragile heart so that she will not be torn apart in the ups and downs of fate.
She was reluctant in her heart, but since Dongdong said, then go back, just to continue to stay with Dongdong.Although Dongdong always said some long-winded words that she couldn't understand.
Xueli was still rambling about grandma's good, Chunxin said: "Don't lie to me anymore, I'll go with you, don't lie to me again."
Xueli closed her mouth, yes, she said all this just because she was worried that Chunxin would turn around and run away again.
Chun Xin asked: "I go back, what if she doesn't open the door for me? What should I do?"
Xueli said without hesitation, "Then you live in my house, live with me, my mother will agree."
It would be great if the Yin family could really let her go, Xueli really hoped that she would live well, Chunxin is too miserable.
She began to think about the possibility of Chunxin coming to live at home.Since her grandma is determined not to want her, and Chun Xin doesn't want to go back, let's live with her!
They have traveled a long way and climbed several mountains. The way they came here has been lost for a long time. They climbed up a bare mountain and pointed down in the snow, "Look, the train!"
Turning around, Chun Xin was lying on the ground with his ass pouted, not knowing what to do.
"Did something drop?" Xueli asked her.
Chun Xin knelt on the grass, holding up a handful of grass leaves, "Plantago, you can put it on the wound, my grandma told me. Once, I went with her to pick wild bracken on the mountain, and saw someone fall down. The knee is broken, and people use this to chew and compress it."
Xueli: "...That's not all saliva."
Chunxin naturally began to chew grass leaves, "That's right."
Xueli gave a "tsk" in disgust, "It's not poisonous."
Chun Xin: "You won't die if you eat it, you can soak it in water and drink it, anyway it's good for your health."
After chewing, Chunxin spat in the palm of his hand, and held it up with a whimper of saliva, ready to apply it to her arm.
"I don't want it!" Xueli backed away in horror.
"Don't run away!"
……
They went down the mountain and walked along the railway tracks. There were peaches in this season. Fortunately, they encountered a wild peach tree, and Chun Xin picked half of his schoolbag.
Green nectarines are so hard that they can knock out teeth, neither sweet nor sour, but there is nothing to be picky about at this time, Xueli turns her head to look at her from time to time, the little black paws are gnawing happily.
The rails were so long, and the four short legs were tossing around all morning. Tired, he leaned against a tree to rest. Chun Xin took out four peaches from his schoolbag and said, "It's time for lunch."
Looking at the endless railway tracks in the distance, and then at the boundless mountains, Xueli sighed, "What should we do?"
Chun Xin said: "Let's go back. We also became homeless once. It's my first time being a homeless man, hehe."
She picked up the armpits of the clothes and smelled them, rolled her eyes, and fell to the ground, "I stink!"
Isn't it? The dog is rolling around in the cage, and it's hot, so it's already smelly.The arms and legs in the snow are green, and it smells like saliva!
After Xueli took the peach and gnawed it, Chunxin got up again, wrapped his school uniform into a long strip and put it on the grass, "Come and have a pillow, let's lie down and eat."
Xueli lay down as promised, with her two little heads touching each other, Chunxin couldn't stop laughing.
Rubbing her head in the snow, looking at the blue sky between the leaves, the bad mood was swept away.
It turned out to be such a mood, being with the person I like, I am happy in doing anything, and I am not afraid of suffering.
They were really exhausted, thinking that the bad guys would not be able to catch them, so they lay down peacefully under the tree and slept until the sun shifted and the shade of the tree could not cover them, then they got up, patted their buttocks and continued on their way. go forward.
After a good night's sleep, I felt refreshed, but I was thirsty. Chun Xin ate a peach, "Actually, we are very lucky. What if it's winter? My feet are cold, and my hands are cold, but it's not cold at all."
Xueli nodded, "You are right, we are very lucky."
Chun Xin said: "And we also escaped smoothly, not caught by the bad guys, and we still have peaches to eat."
Xueli said "hmm", Chunxin said: "So you should be happy, it's so much fun now, and I guess, maybe you won't be scolded if you don't do your summer homework, do you know why? Because we were trafficked!" My schoolbag is gone."
Rubbing her little head, Xueli bent her mouth and smiled slightly, "Chunxin, you are so kind."
"how am I?"
"You are very nice."
"Hey, hey." Chun Xin shy.
They were still walking when the sun was setting. Chunxin was wearing a pair of small black leather shoes, which were worn by her cousin when she was a child, and they were all antiques.
The leather shoes are of good quality, with thick soles, but after walking for such a long time, the feet will inevitably wear out. In the end, the pain was unbearable, so she simply took off her socks and walked on the catwalk on the track barefoot.
The money in the socks was softened by sweat, Chun Xin pinched a corner and put it under his nose to smell, "No wonder people say stinky money stinky money, it really stinks!"
Xueli laughed, and after laughing, she remembered that she also had them in her socks.
The little feet are white and tender, and the calves above the lace socks have been sun-tanned to a wheat color, and the contrast between the two sides is sharp.The sneakers she wore in the snow were much easier to wear, so she helped her walk underneath.
By the time the sun had completely set, the sky had turned blue, and Xueli had chosen a place to spend the night, in a pine forest not far from the railway track.
After walking for a day, I sweated profusely. I grabbed the hem of my clothes and shook it a few times. The wind felt so comfortable. Chun Xin said, "The wind touched my whole body, and I washed it clean."
I took off my shoes in the snow and walked in the pine forest. The pine needles were soft, itchy, a little prickly, which was fun.
Xueli asked her to sit down and rest, "I'll pick up branches, you watch, and at night we'll burn wood for a fire."
"Okay." Chun Xin sat obediently, and piled all the firewood picked up in the snow in front of her. She looked at the clouds dyed red by the sunset in the sky, "This one looks like a chicken. Look, it has a sharp beak. That one looks like a chicken." Dogs lie on the ground and have small ears..."
When she said "Look, look", Xueli said: "I saw it, I saw it, it really looks like it."
"That's right!" Chun Xin turned around, Xueli was talking while bending over to hold firewood, Chun Xin shouted: "You didn't even look at it!"
After collecting firewood, they started looking for food. On the hillside opposite the railway track, they found a green vegetable field.
Chun Xin said, "There is something to eat."
Xueli said, "Someone lives here?"
Putting on their shoes and socks, they decided to go and have a look. If someone was there, they might be saved.
However, it was hard to climb up the mountain, and after a long circle, I didn't see any lights. There was only a lonely field on the gentle slope.
Xueli said, "Maybe the family didn't have any land, so they came here secretly to plant."
"Why secretly?"
"Converting farmland to forests and exchanging food for ecology, but some people still want to plant, so they secretly open a piece of land on the mountain."
Chunxin scratched the back of his head, and Dongdong began to say something she couldn't understand.
Xueli smiled, "Let's get something to eat."
After digging some potatoes and radishes, and pressing the stinky money under the vegetable leaves with stones, they crossed the railway tracks back to the pine forest before it was completely dark, and cleared a clearing for a fire.
Chun Xin said: "Growing vegetables is not easy. My grandma worked hard growing vegetables. She made me a small bucket to go to the toilet, and also used a big stone jar to put my excrement in. I threw all the melon skins and leaves in it, and used the excrement inside to irrigate the ground." ..."
Xueli said, "We paid for it."
Chun Xin was still worried, "But our money is stinky money."
Xueli: "... stinky money is also money." She raised her head and sighed slightly, "There is nothing more stinky than dung."
Chun Xin tilted his head and thought for a while: "Dongdong is right."
The radish couldn't be peeled, so it was thrown into the fire together with the potatoes. Chunxin sat by the fire for a while, suddenly frowned and sniffled, "Do we have fermented soybeans?"
Xueli said inexplicably, "No."
"Then why do I always smell a soy bean smell?"
"Ah?" Xueli glanced around her, "Look at your left."
Chun Xin turned his head, and threw the two pairs of socks aside, which were dried and smelled peculiar.
……
It was completely dark, and some birds in the forest were chirping, and the sound of crickets rang out everywhere. In the snow, potatoes and radishes were picked out with branches and put aside to dry.
The two children leaned together, and Chun Xin said: "Yesterday we were on the roof, and I saw mountains and trees. I felt empty everywhere, and I was very scared. Today we are in the woods, and I am not afraid anymore."
Xueli tapped the black skin on the outside of the potatoes with a branch, and asked "why", Chunxin said "I don't know".
After a while, Chun Xin asked, "Is it cold behind you?"
With the fire in front and the wind blowing behind, Xueli said, "It seems a bit cold."
Chun Xin slowly, slowly put his lips to her ear, and covered it with one hand: "There are ghosts behind us."
Xueli was about to turn her head, Chunxin hurriedly grabbed her, and whispered urgently: "Don't turn your head, or you will be possessed by a ghost!"
Xueli: "..." She pulled a carrot in front of her, "Do you want to eat it or not?"
Chun Xin immediately put the ghost behind him, "I'll eat it, why don't I eat it!"
The radish was roasted soft, and the black skin on the outside was peeled off. The meat inside was transparent, full of water, and very sweet. Chun Xin fed her two bites, "Isn't it delicious!"
Xueli said, "Let's eat potatoes first, and save the radishes for tomorrow when I'm thirsty."
The baked potatoes are delicious, and Chunxin eats delicious too. His two paws and the outer circle of his lips are black. After eating, he wipes his mouth inside his clothes, wipes his paws on his trousers, and then picks up the potato shells on the ground. Throwing the shells and radish shells behind her, "Brothers and sisters, you are all kind-hearted people. I will give you something to eat, so don't hurt me."
Xueli: "..."
The fire could not be extinguished. It was cold and humid at night on the mountain. The two of them took turns to collect firewood, but neither dared to go far.
In the middle of the night, all the firewood in the vicinity had been collected, so the trees had to be broken down. When the wind blew, the smoke rushed to people's faces, making them cry.
The two children were sitting in front of the fire wrapped in their big school uniforms, their faces were almost parched and their backs were still cold.
Chun Xin said, "Bake your butt, it's so cold."
So they turned around to roast their butts, Xueli suddenly turned to her and said, "The ghost is right in front of you."
Chunxin yelled, Yuuri covered the school uniform on top of her head, pouted her buttocks and giggled.
In the second half of the night, I couldn't hold it anymore, fell asleep, and the fire was extinguished. Both of them woke up from the cold, hugging each other and shaking.
They lay on the hillside with their schoolbags on their pillows and snuggled up to keep warm.
The fog on the mountain is really thick, like rain floating in the air, it is a handful of water when you touch it, yesterday I was busy running away, but I didn't realize that it was so wet and cold at night.
When the sky is bright, the fog is so thick that it can hardly be melted away. You can’t see anything three steps away. There are birds singing everywhere. When the wind passes by, you can see the shape of the fog flowing. The sound of the train seems to be in another world. They seem to be floating in midair. Will turn into a rain in this forest.
Finally, when it was dawn and the fog cleared, they moved to a place where they could get some sun to catch up on sleep.
Xueli looked up at the clouds for a while, guessing that it will not rain in the next few days, "Let's drive at night and sleep during the day. Sleeping during the day will not be cold, and driving at night will not be exposed to the sun."
They slept in the pine forest until the sun was in the west, put on stiff, smelly socks and continued on their way. When they heard the sound of the train approaching from afar, they hurried up the hill and hid far away.
Chun Xin covered his ears, "The movement of the train is really loud, it's frightening to death, and it's still whining."
When the train left, Chun Xin ran down, bent over the roadbed and watched inch by inch.
Because Xueli said that the toilets of the green trains lead directly to the outside, and if someone goes to the toilet, the dirt will fall directly from the train onto the rails.
Xueli walked down the mountain slowly, and from far away Chunxin yelled "Aw", dancing ballet on his toes while covering his nose.
It must have been found.
After that, she never walked in the middle of the tracks, or catwalked on the tracks without taking off her shoes.
The two of them changed their shoes. Chunxin's leather shoes were too big for him, and they fit well in the snow.
She hadn't worn shoes that fit her much, and occasionally got a new pair, one size up.Grandma said that she can still wear them when she grows up, but most of those shoes are broken when they don't fit properly.
Xueli remembers that when she was in junior high school, she was most afraid of rain. When it rained, her shoes would get water, and she would walk erratically, and her feet would turn white after a day.
At that time, the quality of things began to deteriorate. She bought a pair of sneakers at the wholesale market for 30 yuan, and the soles of the shoes were completely cracked after wearing it for less than two months.
Putting on the snow shoes, Chun Xin walked much more briskly, "The blisters on my feet don't hurt anymore."
After a while, he asked again, "Are you wearing my shoes on your feet?"
"No grinding, just fine."
The sun was about to set, and a red circle hung on the top of the mountain. Half of the sky was red, and people's faces were also red. The evening wind gently brushed against their cheeks. Chunxin closed his eyes and said, "Like mother's hand."
Xueli looked at her sideways, she opened her eyes, and smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, I don't know, I'm talking nonsense."
How long is this road, the endless railroad tracks, and the immature children.
They walked like this for another two days, looking for a place to sleep during the day, and driving by the moonlight at night. Both of them were tired, hungry and thirsty. There were many trains passing by, but they never stopped them once. .
Xueli said: "Just arrive at the station, any station will do."
Chun Xin wanted to eat and sleep in bed, and felt that this was fun and comfortable.
When she was most flustered, she raised her head suddenly and found that there were a few small houses beside the railway track ahead, which looked very much like the platform Dongdong had mentioned.
Xueli said "we're here", and for a moment Chunxin wanted to run away, she didn't want to go back yet, but the staff on the railway had already spotted them and was walking towards them.
She stood still and didn't go any further. Xueli stopped and called her name softly.
Until two adults came to the side and asked where they came from.
Chun Xin thought, her good days are over.
……
The clothes were filthy, the hair was frizzy, and the face was unbelievably dark. A sister took them to the dormitory to take a bath, and the two children rubbed in the bathroom for three or four hours.
Chun Xin turned sideways to avoid those who dare not hide, left foot on the right foot, but she was embarrassed, the skin on her body was exposed to the shape of short sleeves and breeches, her sister joked while rubbing mud for them, and praised them for being strong, brave.
The elder sister gently held her hand, "Come on, let's rub the creaky nest."
Xueli took the opportunity to turn her back, rubbed herself with a bath towel, and after taking a bath, her sister wiped their hair, and then praised Chun Xin, "Your hair is self-curly, so beautiful, and you won't need to spend money on it in the future, perm it Hair is precious."
No one has ever praised her hair, Chun Xin laughed, with a row of small white teeth showing on his black face, "Is it expensive to perm your hair?"
"It's very expensive. I only perm it once, and I don't curl it in half a month."
Chun Xin laughed again, happy that she had saved a lot of perm money, she thought everyone had to get perm.
After taking a bath, my sister stuffed them naked under the quilt, "Go to bed, I'll find clothes for you."
Lying on the bed, the two children were next to each other, moving around under the quilt, Chun Xin smiled and touched the snow, "It's slippery."
Xueli pressed her wrist, "Don't move around."
"why?"
"Itchy, I'm afraid of tickles."
Chun Xin let out an "oh", stopped moving, and went to tickle her again after a while.
Xueli reluctantly played with her for a while, and she fell asleep after a while, with her eyes closed, she muttered endlessly, "The bed is so soft——"
I don't know how long they slept, but the older sister who bathed them before came back and bought them new clothes and shoes. Chun Xin immediately jumped off the ground to look through his schoolbag and wanted to give her all the money.
My sister yelled "Ouch" and said, "It stinks!" Then she quickly returned the money to her, "It stinks, I don't want it."
Chun Xin said, "I'm sorry."
My sister liked her very much, and hugged her intimately, "Why are you so cute?"
Chun Xin felt embarrassed, and her sister even combed her hair, tied her curly head with a hairpin, and then led them to the cafeteria for dinner.
Chun Xin was very hungry, and the rush to eat frightened people, her face was buried in the bowl, her neck stretched forward when she swallowed, her eyes widened, her sister kept telling her to slow down.
Xueli is used to it. She was with her mother and father when she was a child, and she couldn't get enough to eat. She always ate very fast. This habit can't be changed, and it will be the same when she grows up.
After dinner, two policemen drove to take them away. My sister packed their old clothes in their schoolbags and stuffed them with a lot of snacks, and told Chun Xin: "Don't run around in the future."
Chun Xin lay on the car window and talked to her: "I didn't run around."
My sister said, "Can I throw it away without running around?"
Chun Xin said, "My father sold me."
My sister stopped talking, and reached in to touch her head.
Jiang Mengyan came that night, along with Chun Xin's grandparents.
Jiang Mengyan hugged Xueli and cried, Xueli patted her mother's back and turned to look at Chunxin.
Grandma pushed her first, then opened her mouth and asked, "Why are you running around?"
This question is inexplicable. Didn't you drive your granddaughter out yourself? If you don't drive her out, can she be sold?
Of course, the old lady didn't really forget about it. Before Chun Xin could say anything, and without waiting for the people around her to explain, she grabbed Chun Xin by the arm and hit her on the butt a few times, "If you don't run around, you will be dragged away Get in the car! My lord is going to work, you are running around!"
Chun Xin did not argue, she lowered her head and shed tears silently.
Grandma tugged at her clothes again and asked, "Where did you get these? Where is your schoolbag? The schoolbag is gone."
The police on the side stepped forward to stop them, "Isn't it very clear on the phone, your son sold his daughter to traffickers, and the two children are very smart, they ran out by themselves, and provided us with clues to the traffickers, what are you doing?" ..."
It's too embarrassing to speak frankly. I lose my temper with the child as if all the faults have nothing to do with me, shirk responsibility and say "the baby is disobedient", hit her a few times, and scold her a few times, as if this will save face.
Chunxin stared at his new sandals, letting the tears fall into the toes, Xueli left her mother's arms and walked towards them, "Grandma, don't talk about her."
Jiang Mengyan talked to Grandma Yin: "The child is still young and has not made any mistakes. Don't beat her."
Grandpa Yin said, "Beat lightly."
Grandma Yin didn't want to talk to her any more, she kept repeating the same sentence, "The baby is disobedient."
This has nothing to do with whether the baby is obedient or not, Jiang Mengyan choked for a moment, and said too much.
The child is back, it is obviously a long-lost reunion, a moment of joy and joy, why did it change like this.
Xueli pulled Chun Xin aside, knelt down and wiped her tears, she dodged away, raised her head, choked up and said, "I...it's all my fault, it's annoying."
Xueli knew what she wanted to say, she was blaming her, why did she have to be forced to come back, she didn't want to come back at all.
But they are good friends, get along day and night, share weal and woe, she can't blame her, say bad things to her.
Chun Xin felt so wronged, it was obviously her grandma who threw her out, she didn't run around, and she didn't lose her schoolbag on purpose...
Seeing that the road ahead was pitch black, she was always standing in a place where the sun couldn't shine, and she couldn't get out no matter how she walked, she cried in despair.
She opened her mouth, weeping and breathing, without making a sound from her throat, tears flowed down her face in big and big ones, and she couldn't wipe them off no matter how hard she tried.
The snot flowed into her mouth quickly, and Xueli wanted to wipe her off, but Grandma Yin took her away. Her body was hanging for a long time, and the tissue fell to the ground.
The two old and the young walked out of the gate of the police station and walked to the street. Their voices could not be heard in the snow. They only saw poisonous snakes coming out of Grandma Yin's mouth. Chun Xin rushed over.
Her steps were faltering, her shoulders were trembling, and her back was blurred, like the morning mist that was about to pass away before sunrise.
……
Staying at the hotel at night, Xueli asked her mother, "Can we bring Chun Xin to live with us?"
Jiang Mengyan was shaking the quilt, she was startled when she heard this, she slowly sat down on the bed with the corners of the quilt in her hands, crossed her legs and started to be in a daze.
Xueli leaned against the head of the bed and asked, "Is it possible?"
Jiang Mengyan said: "Let me think about it."
Xueli said, "Just go to work hard, Director Zhao is very nice."
Jiang Mengyan looked up suddenly, her eyes were wide open, the child was negotiating terms with her.
Xueli asked: "What does Mom think of Chunxin? Actually, you like her too, right? She is really pitiful."
"...Yes, that child is really pitiful. If she were your sister, I wouldn't be willing to treat her like that. This child has a hard life."
"Mom, can we ask for Chunxin? If I ask for it, Grandma Yin will definitely not even open the door for me. Please help me, let's go find out."
"You child." Jiang Mengyan was extremely helpless, "You are really whimsical, Chunxin is not a toy, it is something you can have if you want it."
Xueli said, "Actually, she is just a toy."
"What toy?" Jiang Mengyan turned to look at her, "That is a big living person, you are still good friends, how can you do this..."
"She's a punching bag." Xueli interrupted her.
Jiang Mengyan: "..." I really underestimated you.
The family can afford two children, Chun Xin is indeed pitiful, but she also has grandparents and aunts, is it that she can have what she wants?
Having met Chunxin's family, Xueli really felt that her mother was the best mother in the world.
Because I lived in Cannes with my grandparents when I was a child, my mother always felt sorry for her and accommodated her in everything. Today, my mother cried and swollen her eyes while holding her, and kept apologizing, saying that she should not be left alone with Uncle Zhao...
Of course Xueli doesn't blame her, people are all better than others, looking at Chun Xin, she doesn't feel sorry for herself at all.
Mom must still be feeling guilty that she almost never saw her precious daughter again.
——I'm sorry mom, the little padded jacket is leaking everywhere, and I'm going to plot against you again.
"Forget it, mom, just cut my toenails." Xueli crawled over and put her two little feet on her mother's thigh.
Jiang Mengyan sighed, got up and went to find the keys in the bag, found the nail clippers and came back, squatting beside the bed, "Come down, don't fly on the bed."
With this cut, she saw her daughter's feet were covered with red blisters, Jiang Mengyan was so distressed, she held her daughter's feet in both hands, and began to cry.
Xueli said: "It's all good. I made it like this because I changed shoes with Chunxin. Her shoes didn't fit, they were heavy and big. Her feet were all rotten and stuck together with the socks."
Jiang Mengyan was stunned, and then she understood, "Didn't you say forget it, you mean forget it."
Xueli turned a deaf ear, "Mom, don't you think, our family is too small. It is said that there are three members in a family, and our family only has two members. If you add Uncle Zhao and Chun Xin, you have four members..."
Jiang Mengyan: "You..."
Xueli hadn't finished speaking yet, "In case you have a younger brother or younger sister, you will have five children, two more than three, how exciting it is, when you get old, there will be three children honoring you, even though one of them is not your own. Yes, but more like your own than your own.”
Seeing her opening and closing her small mouth, Jiang Mengyan thought to herself, why do I want such a child, are they all plotting against me like you?
Jiang Mengyan sighed, "Okay, okay, don't say any more... I dare not promise you, I can only say that I will do my best, I will do my best, okay?"
Jiang Mengyan didn't lie to the child, and told her the truth, "I'll ask tomorrow, if they really don't want it, let Chunxin come to our house, okay?"
Xueli clenched her hands into fists, "Good mom, come on mom."
The next morning, Jiang Mengyan went out. Chunxin and his grandparents lived in the hostel across the street. Before they came, they made an appointment to go back by car together.
Standing by the window, Xueli watched her mother buy fruit on the roadside cart, and carried it into the gate of the guest house.
There was a watch on the wall, and Yuri looked up, counting the time for her mother to go upstairs, knock on the door, say hello, and chat before the topic.
In less than 5 minutes, Chun Xin went downstairs, Xueli saw her crossing the road and walking towards this side, jumping up and down, Xueli waited for her to walk on the sidewalk before shouting: "Chun Xin!"
Chun Xin raised his head, his face collapsed immediately, "Come down."
Xueli hurried downstairs, Chun Xin pouted and walked to the door of the hotel to pick her up unhappy, Xueli wanted to apologize to her, but she said the first sentence: "I have a dollar."
Xueli: "Huh?"
Chun Xin snorted, put his hands on his hips, "I said I have one dollar, fifty cents per person, and I'll treat you to a popsicle."
Xueli was very happy, and went to hold her hand, she hugged it in her arms and turned around.
Well, don’t hold me back, Xueli said, “I treat you to eat, let’s eat ice cream.”
"No!" Chun Xin walked forward angrily, "I have money, so I must treat you to dinner."
Xueli Pidianpidian followed, "Okay, okay, then you invite me first, and I will invite you later."
……
Before Chunxin had finished licking the popsicles, Jiang Mengyan came back, and the two primary school students met at the entrance of the hotel.
Chun Xin was about to leave, "My grandma said that I would go back after Aunt Jiang left. I'm leaving, Dongdong."
Xueli went to see Jiang Mengyan, Jiang Mengyan said, "I'll take you across the road."
failed.
Sure enough, Jiang Mengyan said after returning to the hotel: "Her grandma won't let her go, and neither will her grandpa."
Xueli: "What did you say?"
Jiang Mengyan: "I said I like Chunxin, and my family Dongdong also likes her. Her parents don't want her, but I want her. I can afford her."
Xueli sat down by the bed, pursed her lips and said nothing, Jiang Mengyan said again: "Her grandma is really cunning, as soon as she saw me, she sent Chun Xin out to buy things, and gave her a dollar, which is really generous at this time."
Jiang Mengyan shook the quilt, vented her anger with the quilt, and sat down on it after shaking, "It would be fine if Chunxin was sold by grandparents, but they just won't let him go. This child will be tortured to death sooner or later."
Yes, Yin Chunxin will die sooner or later, she is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
There is no need to rush this matter, now grandparents at least know that they don't want it, someone wants it, and if they figure it out one day, they don't want Chun Xin anymore, and they won't worry about what to do with her.
Didn't they throw Chun Xin out of the house because Yin Yuanchang was there at the time, so they could throw the child to him with peace of mind?
Knowing what kind of virtue his son is, knowing that Chun Lai was sold by him, he would not know the consequences of driving Chun Xin out and being taken away by Yin Yuanchang?
They kept Chunxin, but they just abandoned her because they couldn't be fair.
Now some people want Chunxin again, but they don't agree because there is still a lack of something that should be taken for granted.
……
Originally, the two families made an appointment to go back together, but on the day of departure, Jiang Mengyan ran to the guest house across the road to ask, and when she came back, she was so angry that she threw the quilt, "The people in the guest house told me that they checked out the day before yesterday and left. Just leave without even saying hello."
Xueli had guessed it a long time ago, "Calm down, she's narrow-minded, don't you know?"
Jiang Mengyan said: "I know, but I'm still angry." She stood at the window with her hips on her hips, her face was flushed with anger, and she was panting.
First take the train back to Nanzhou, and then take the bus back to Rong County from Nanzhou. That night, Grandma Chunxin packed Xueli's homework and clothes at Yin's house and sent them upstairs.
There is also an envelope, which contains 1000 yuan, which is the meal money for Xueli's new semester at Yin's house, which was given before the holiday.
Jiang Mengyan didn't say anything, just took it with both hands, Grandma Chunxin didn't say anything, turned around and left after delivering the things.
After closing the door, Jiang Mengyan slammed everything on the sofa when there were no footsteps in the stairwell, "I knew it would happen, stingy, so stingy!"
Xueli went back to her room, school started tomorrow, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what, and she still couldn't fall asleep even when the lights were turned off.
It's almost ten o'clock, I heard a cat meowing outside, she was a carp
They ran like crazy, afraid of being chased, they ran up the mountain, their summer shirts were short, they were scratched by something, their bodies hurt everywhere, and they didn't care about it, they just knew how to run.
In the silent night sky, the stars and the moon cling together, until the sky in the east turns fish-belly white, above the undulating black mountains, the quiet blue and white is dyed with magnificent and dreamy colors because of the rising sun that is about to leap out.
Gradually being able to see the road in the forest clearly, Xueli said, "Stop and rest for a while."
They sat on the raised tree roots, their arms and legs exposed in the snow were covered with slender bloodstains, Chun Xin lowered his eyes and used two fingers to pull out the small thorns on the flesh.
Chun Xin was wearing a big school uniform dug out from the brick building of the dog meat restaurant, the clothes almost dragged to his knees, and there was snow in front of him, but he didn't suffer any injuries.
With hot tears dripping on her arms, Xueli looked down, "You sprinkle salt on my wound."
Chun Xin was still crying, "I didn't."
Xue Li calmly said: "Salt is salty, tears are also salty, falling on the wound, it is hot and painful."
"Really?" She looked up with tears in her eyes.
Shirley said, "Of course."
As a result, a soft and moist touch swept over the skin, and Yuri lost control of her expression again, opening her mouth wide in surprise, "What are you doing!"
"I licked it off for you." Chun Xin was still smacking his mouth, "It's really salty, why?"
"No..." Xueli held her forehead, "Why did you lick me?"
"Puppy is like this." Chun Xin said: "Puppy will lick the wounded part of his body, and cat will also lick, so it must be useful."
She moved her mouth, her eyes were fixed on a certain place, Xueli was in a bad mood, and sure enough she said again: "Saliva is not salty, I..."
"Let's go!" Xueli hurriedly pulled her to stand up, "Run, don't be caught up in a while."
Chun Xin wanted to take off his clothes for her to wear, but she didn't want it, so he just said: "From now on, you have to listen to my words, and you can't be self-willed anymore, you understand?"
She's behaved now, with a muffled "um", "Got it."
I was also tired, and my speed gradually slowed down, and I was able to avoid the thorns and branches that cut the flesh. Xueli said: "You have to trust me, I will never harm you, I really can't stay in that place, we have to go home and find grandparents. "
Chun Xin sobbed and said, "Grandma kicked me out."
"No, she was angered by Yin Yuanchang, and you know her temper, she is an old lady, let's let her go."
Xueli began to count grandma's good things in detail.
"Last semester, when it rained one day, grandma came to school to bring you clothes, do you remember?"
Chun Xin said "I remember", and Xueli said, "That's right, she's just a little bit poisonous and has a bad temper, but she really cares about you."
"And you are not in good health. Grandma takes you to exercise every day. It is thanks to grandma whether we are in good health or not."
"And grandpa, do you often secretly give you money to buy snacks?"
"They just used the wrong way to love you. At least they didn't starve you, freeze you, and didn't want to sell you. The older generation, it's this kind of education, it can't be turned around, there's no way , just bear with it."
"We are still young, life is still very long, grandparents are old, how long can we live? Before you grow up, they may not be here, and we still have a long way to go, and there will always be good things in the future of."
"I still have to go home and go back to our big bed. Grandma's mattress is so soft, the quilt is also fragrant, and the flowers in the yard are blooming. Don't you want to see it? When we go back, The beans are ripe too..."
Xueli talked a lot. It was the first time someone told her these principles, but she didn't really understand them, and she still felt very uncomfortable. She didn't miss the big bed, flowers and beans she said much.
She thought of grandma when she was good, but also when she was bad. What lingered in her mind was that she kicked her out without saying a word or listening to her explanation.
She didn't have time to react before she was dragged away to a completely strange place. She finally got used to it, and was taken away by strangers, locked in a cage, and pulled into the mountains by car.
Every time she thinks it won't get any worse, something unexpected will happen again, dragging her to a deeper abyss; every time she gets up, exhausted and about to go ashore, there are already people waiting on it, stepping on her fingers hard The ground crushed her, or pretended to pull her, and then pushed her down with a smile.
The soft armor of childhood and ignorance wraps a fragile heart so that she will not be torn apart in the ups and downs of fate.
She was reluctant in her heart, but since Dongdong said, then go back, just to continue to stay with Dongdong.Although Dongdong always said some long-winded words that she couldn't understand.
Xueli was still rambling about grandma's good, Chunxin said: "Don't lie to me anymore, I'll go with you, don't lie to me again."
Xueli closed her mouth, yes, she said all this just because she was worried that Chunxin would turn around and run away again.
Chun Xin asked: "I go back, what if she doesn't open the door for me? What should I do?"
Xueli said without hesitation, "Then you live in my house, live with me, my mother will agree."
It would be great if the Yin family could really let her go, Xueli really hoped that she would live well, Chunxin is too miserable.
She began to think about the possibility of Chunxin coming to live at home.Since her grandma is determined not to want her, and Chun Xin doesn't want to go back, let's live with her!
They have traveled a long way and climbed several mountains. The way they came here has been lost for a long time. They climbed up a bare mountain and pointed down in the snow, "Look, the train!"
Turning around, Chun Xin was lying on the ground with his ass pouted, not knowing what to do.
"Did something drop?" Xueli asked her.
Chun Xin knelt on the grass, holding up a handful of grass leaves, "Plantago, you can put it on the wound, my grandma told me. Once, I went with her to pick wild bracken on the mountain, and saw someone fall down. The knee is broken, and people use this to chew and compress it."
Xueli: "...That's not all saliva."
Chunxin naturally began to chew grass leaves, "That's right."
Xueli gave a "tsk" in disgust, "It's not poisonous."
Chun Xin: "You won't die if you eat it, you can soak it in water and drink it, anyway it's good for your health."
After chewing, Chunxin spat in the palm of his hand, and held it up with a whimper of saliva, ready to apply it to her arm.
"I don't want it!" Xueli backed away in horror.
"Don't run away!"
……
They went down the mountain and walked along the railway tracks. There were peaches in this season. Fortunately, they encountered a wild peach tree, and Chun Xin picked half of his schoolbag.
Green nectarines are so hard that they can knock out teeth, neither sweet nor sour, but there is nothing to be picky about at this time, Xueli turns her head to look at her from time to time, the little black paws are gnawing happily.
The rails were so long, and the four short legs were tossing around all morning. Tired, he leaned against a tree to rest. Chun Xin took out four peaches from his schoolbag and said, "It's time for lunch."
Looking at the endless railway tracks in the distance, and then at the boundless mountains, Xueli sighed, "What should we do?"
Chun Xin said: "Let's go back. We also became homeless once. It's my first time being a homeless man, hehe."
She picked up the armpits of the clothes and smelled them, rolled her eyes, and fell to the ground, "I stink!"
Isn't it? The dog is rolling around in the cage, and it's hot, so it's already smelly.The arms and legs in the snow are green, and it smells like saliva!
After Xueli took the peach and gnawed it, Chunxin got up again, wrapped his school uniform into a long strip and put it on the grass, "Come and have a pillow, let's lie down and eat."
Xueli lay down as promised, with her two little heads touching each other, Chunxin couldn't stop laughing.
Rubbing her head in the snow, looking at the blue sky between the leaves, the bad mood was swept away.
It turned out to be such a mood, being with the person I like, I am happy in doing anything, and I am not afraid of suffering.
They were really exhausted, thinking that the bad guys would not be able to catch them, so they lay down peacefully under the tree and slept until the sun shifted and the shade of the tree could not cover them, then they got up, patted their buttocks and continued on their way. go forward.
After a good night's sleep, I felt refreshed, but I was thirsty. Chun Xin ate a peach, "Actually, we are very lucky. What if it's winter? My feet are cold, and my hands are cold, but it's not cold at all."
Xueli nodded, "You are right, we are very lucky."
Chun Xin said: "And we also escaped smoothly, not caught by the bad guys, and we still have peaches to eat."
Xueli said "hmm", Chunxin said: "So you should be happy, it's so much fun now, and I guess, maybe you won't be scolded if you don't do your summer homework, do you know why? Because we were trafficked!" My schoolbag is gone."
Rubbing her little head, Xueli bent her mouth and smiled slightly, "Chunxin, you are so kind."
"how am I?"
"You are very nice."
"Hey, hey." Chun Xin shy.
They were still walking when the sun was setting. Chunxin was wearing a pair of small black leather shoes, which were worn by her cousin when she was a child, and they were all antiques.
The leather shoes are of good quality, with thick soles, but after walking for such a long time, the feet will inevitably wear out. In the end, the pain was unbearable, so she simply took off her socks and walked on the catwalk on the track barefoot.
The money in the socks was softened by sweat, Chun Xin pinched a corner and put it under his nose to smell, "No wonder people say stinky money stinky money, it really stinks!"
Xueli laughed, and after laughing, she remembered that she also had them in her socks.
The little feet are white and tender, and the calves above the lace socks have been sun-tanned to a wheat color, and the contrast between the two sides is sharp.The sneakers she wore in the snow were much easier to wear, so she helped her walk underneath.
By the time the sun had completely set, the sky had turned blue, and Xueli had chosen a place to spend the night, in a pine forest not far from the railway track.
After walking for a day, I sweated profusely. I grabbed the hem of my clothes and shook it a few times. The wind felt so comfortable. Chun Xin said, "The wind touched my whole body, and I washed it clean."
I took off my shoes in the snow and walked in the pine forest. The pine needles were soft, itchy, a little prickly, which was fun.
Xueli asked her to sit down and rest, "I'll pick up branches, you watch, and at night we'll burn wood for a fire."
"Okay." Chun Xin sat obediently, and piled all the firewood picked up in the snow in front of her. She looked at the clouds dyed red by the sunset in the sky, "This one looks like a chicken. Look, it has a sharp beak. That one looks like a chicken." Dogs lie on the ground and have small ears..."
When she said "Look, look", Xueli said: "I saw it, I saw it, it really looks like it."
"That's right!" Chun Xin turned around, Xueli was talking while bending over to hold firewood, Chun Xin shouted: "You didn't even look at it!"
After collecting firewood, they started looking for food. On the hillside opposite the railway track, they found a green vegetable field.
Chun Xin said, "There is something to eat."
Xueli said, "Someone lives here?"
Putting on their shoes and socks, they decided to go and have a look. If someone was there, they might be saved.
However, it was hard to climb up the mountain, and after a long circle, I didn't see any lights. There was only a lonely field on the gentle slope.
Xueli said, "Maybe the family didn't have any land, so they came here secretly to plant."
"Why secretly?"
"Converting farmland to forests and exchanging food for ecology, but some people still want to plant, so they secretly open a piece of land on the mountain."
Chunxin scratched the back of his head, and Dongdong began to say something she couldn't understand.
Xueli smiled, "Let's get something to eat."
After digging some potatoes and radishes, and pressing the stinky money under the vegetable leaves with stones, they crossed the railway tracks back to the pine forest before it was completely dark, and cleared a clearing for a fire.
Chun Xin said: "Growing vegetables is not easy. My grandma worked hard growing vegetables. She made me a small bucket to go to the toilet, and also used a big stone jar to put my excrement in. I threw all the melon skins and leaves in it, and used the excrement inside to irrigate the ground." ..."
Xueli said, "We paid for it."
Chun Xin was still worried, "But our money is stinky money."
Xueli: "... stinky money is also money." She raised her head and sighed slightly, "There is nothing more stinky than dung."
Chun Xin tilted his head and thought for a while: "Dongdong is right."
The radish couldn't be peeled, so it was thrown into the fire together with the potatoes. Chunxin sat by the fire for a while, suddenly frowned and sniffled, "Do we have fermented soybeans?"
Xueli said inexplicably, "No."
"Then why do I always smell a soy bean smell?"
"Ah?" Xueli glanced around her, "Look at your left."
Chun Xin turned his head, and threw the two pairs of socks aside, which were dried and smelled peculiar.
……
It was completely dark, and some birds in the forest were chirping, and the sound of crickets rang out everywhere. In the snow, potatoes and radishes were picked out with branches and put aside to dry.
The two children leaned together, and Chun Xin said: "Yesterday we were on the roof, and I saw mountains and trees. I felt empty everywhere, and I was very scared. Today we are in the woods, and I am not afraid anymore."
Xueli tapped the black skin on the outside of the potatoes with a branch, and asked "why", Chunxin said "I don't know".
After a while, Chun Xin asked, "Is it cold behind you?"
With the fire in front and the wind blowing behind, Xueli said, "It seems a bit cold."
Chun Xin slowly, slowly put his lips to her ear, and covered it with one hand: "There are ghosts behind us."
Xueli was about to turn her head, Chunxin hurriedly grabbed her, and whispered urgently: "Don't turn your head, or you will be possessed by a ghost!"
Xueli: "..." She pulled a carrot in front of her, "Do you want to eat it or not?"
Chun Xin immediately put the ghost behind him, "I'll eat it, why don't I eat it!"
The radish was roasted soft, and the black skin on the outside was peeled off. The meat inside was transparent, full of water, and very sweet. Chun Xin fed her two bites, "Isn't it delicious!"
Xueli said, "Let's eat potatoes first, and save the radishes for tomorrow when I'm thirsty."
The baked potatoes are delicious, and Chunxin eats delicious too. His two paws and the outer circle of his lips are black. After eating, he wipes his mouth inside his clothes, wipes his paws on his trousers, and then picks up the potato shells on the ground. Throwing the shells and radish shells behind her, "Brothers and sisters, you are all kind-hearted people. I will give you something to eat, so don't hurt me."
Xueli: "..."
The fire could not be extinguished. It was cold and humid at night on the mountain. The two of them took turns to collect firewood, but neither dared to go far.
In the middle of the night, all the firewood in the vicinity had been collected, so the trees had to be broken down. When the wind blew, the smoke rushed to people's faces, making them cry.
The two children were sitting in front of the fire wrapped in their big school uniforms, their faces were almost parched and their backs were still cold.
Chun Xin said, "Bake your butt, it's so cold."
So they turned around to roast their butts, Xueli suddenly turned to her and said, "The ghost is right in front of you."
Chunxin yelled, Yuuri covered the school uniform on top of her head, pouted her buttocks and giggled.
In the second half of the night, I couldn't hold it anymore, fell asleep, and the fire was extinguished. Both of them woke up from the cold, hugging each other and shaking.
They lay on the hillside with their schoolbags on their pillows and snuggled up to keep warm.
The fog on the mountain is really thick, like rain floating in the air, it is a handful of water when you touch it, yesterday I was busy running away, but I didn't realize that it was so wet and cold at night.
When the sky is bright, the fog is so thick that it can hardly be melted away. You can’t see anything three steps away. There are birds singing everywhere. When the wind passes by, you can see the shape of the fog flowing. The sound of the train seems to be in another world. They seem to be floating in midair. Will turn into a rain in this forest.
Finally, when it was dawn and the fog cleared, they moved to a place where they could get some sun to catch up on sleep.
Xueli looked up at the clouds for a while, guessing that it will not rain in the next few days, "Let's drive at night and sleep during the day. Sleeping during the day will not be cold, and driving at night will not be exposed to the sun."
They slept in the pine forest until the sun was in the west, put on stiff, smelly socks and continued on their way. When they heard the sound of the train approaching from afar, they hurried up the hill and hid far away.
Chun Xin covered his ears, "The movement of the train is really loud, it's frightening to death, and it's still whining."
When the train left, Chun Xin ran down, bent over the roadbed and watched inch by inch.
Because Xueli said that the toilets of the green trains lead directly to the outside, and if someone goes to the toilet, the dirt will fall directly from the train onto the rails.
Xueli walked down the mountain slowly, and from far away Chunxin yelled "Aw", dancing ballet on his toes while covering his nose.
It must have been found.
After that, she never walked in the middle of the tracks, or catwalked on the tracks without taking off her shoes.
The two of them changed their shoes. Chunxin's leather shoes were too big for him, and they fit well in the snow.
She hadn't worn shoes that fit her much, and occasionally got a new pair, one size up.Grandma said that she can still wear them when she grows up, but most of those shoes are broken when they don't fit properly.
Xueli remembers that when she was in junior high school, she was most afraid of rain. When it rained, her shoes would get water, and she would walk erratically, and her feet would turn white after a day.
At that time, the quality of things began to deteriorate. She bought a pair of sneakers at the wholesale market for 30 yuan, and the soles of the shoes were completely cracked after wearing it for less than two months.
Putting on the snow shoes, Chun Xin walked much more briskly, "The blisters on my feet don't hurt anymore."
After a while, he asked again, "Are you wearing my shoes on your feet?"
"No grinding, just fine."
The sun was about to set, and a red circle hung on the top of the mountain. Half of the sky was red, and people's faces were also red. The evening wind gently brushed against their cheeks. Chunxin closed his eyes and said, "Like mother's hand."
Xueli looked at her sideways, she opened her eyes, and smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, I don't know, I'm talking nonsense."
How long is this road, the endless railroad tracks, and the immature children.
They walked like this for another two days, looking for a place to sleep during the day, and driving by the moonlight at night. Both of them were tired, hungry and thirsty. There were many trains passing by, but they never stopped them once. .
Xueli said: "Just arrive at the station, any station will do."
Chun Xin wanted to eat and sleep in bed, and felt that this was fun and comfortable.
When she was most flustered, she raised her head suddenly and found that there were a few small houses beside the railway track ahead, which looked very much like the platform Dongdong had mentioned.
Xueli said "we're here", and for a moment Chunxin wanted to run away, she didn't want to go back yet, but the staff on the railway had already spotted them and was walking towards them.
She stood still and didn't go any further. Xueli stopped and called her name softly.
Until two adults came to the side and asked where they came from.
Chun Xin thought, her good days are over.
……
The clothes were filthy, the hair was frizzy, and the face was unbelievably dark. A sister took them to the dormitory to take a bath, and the two children rubbed in the bathroom for three or four hours.
Chun Xin turned sideways to avoid those who dare not hide, left foot on the right foot, but she was embarrassed, the skin on her body was exposed to the shape of short sleeves and breeches, her sister joked while rubbing mud for them, and praised them for being strong, brave.
The elder sister gently held her hand, "Come on, let's rub the creaky nest."
Xueli took the opportunity to turn her back, rubbed herself with a bath towel, and after taking a bath, her sister wiped their hair, and then praised Chun Xin, "Your hair is self-curly, so beautiful, and you won't need to spend money on it in the future, perm it Hair is precious."
No one has ever praised her hair, Chun Xin laughed, with a row of small white teeth showing on his black face, "Is it expensive to perm your hair?"
"It's very expensive. I only perm it once, and I don't curl it in half a month."
Chun Xin laughed again, happy that she had saved a lot of perm money, she thought everyone had to get perm.
After taking a bath, my sister stuffed them naked under the quilt, "Go to bed, I'll find clothes for you."
Lying on the bed, the two children were next to each other, moving around under the quilt, Chun Xin smiled and touched the snow, "It's slippery."
Xueli pressed her wrist, "Don't move around."
"why?"
"Itchy, I'm afraid of tickles."
Chun Xin let out an "oh", stopped moving, and went to tickle her again after a while.
Xueli reluctantly played with her for a while, and she fell asleep after a while, with her eyes closed, she muttered endlessly, "The bed is so soft——"
I don't know how long they slept, but the older sister who bathed them before came back and bought them new clothes and shoes. Chun Xin immediately jumped off the ground to look through his schoolbag and wanted to give her all the money.
My sister yelled "Ouch" and said, "It stinks!" Then she quickly returned the money to her, "It stinks, I don't want it."
Chun Xin said, "I'm sorry."
My sister liked her very much, and hugged her intimately, "Why are you so cute?"
Chun Xin felt embarrassed, and her sister even combed her hair, tied her curly head with a hairpin, and then led them to the cafeteria for dinner.
Chun Xin was very hungry, and the rush to eat frightened people, her face was buried in the bowl, her neck stretched forward when she swallowed, her eyes widened, her sister kept telling her to slow down.
Xueli is used to it. She was with her mother and father when she was a child, and she couldn't get enough to eat. She always ate very fast. This habit can't be changed, and it will be the same when she grows up.
After dinner, two policemen drove to take them away. My sister packed their old clothes in their schoolbags and stuffed them with a lot of snacks, and told Chun Xin: "Don't run around in the future."
Chun Xin lay on the car window and talked to her: "I didn't run around."
My sister said, "Can I throw it away without running around?"
Chun Xin said, "My father sold me."
My sister stopped talking, and reached in to touch her head.
Jiang Mengyan came that night, along with Chun Xin's grandparents.
Jiang Mengyan hugged Xueli and cried, Xueli patted her mother's back and turned to look at Chunxin.
Grandma pushed her first, then opened her mouth and asked, "Why are you running around?"
This question is inexplicable. Didn't you drive your granddaughter out yourself? If you don't drive her out, can she be sold?
Of course, the old lady didn't really forget about it. Before Chun Xin could say anything, and without waiting for the people around her to explain, she grabbed Chun Xin by the arm and hit her on the butt a few times, "If you don't run around, you will be dragged away Get in the car! My lord is going to work, you are running around!"
Chun Xin did not argue, she lowered her head and shed tears silently.
Grandma tugged at her clothes again and asked, "Where did you get these? Where is your schoolbag? The schoolbag is gone."
The police on the side stepped forward to stop them, "Isn't it very clear on the phone, your son sold his daughter to traffickers, and the two children are very smart, they ran out by themselves, and provided us with clues to the traffickers, what are you doing?" ..."
It's too embarrassing to speak frankly. I lose my temper with the child as if all the faults have nothing to do with me, shirk responsibility and say "the baby is disobedient", hit her a few times, and scold her a few times, as if this will save face.
Chunxin stared at his new sandals, letting the tears fall into the toes, Xueli left her mother's arms and walked towards them, "Grandma, don't talk about her."
Jiang Mengyan talked to Grandma Yin: "The child is still young and has not made any mistakes. Don't beat her."
Grandpa Yin said, "Beat lightly."
Grandma Yin didn't want to talk to her any more, she kept repeating the same sentence, "The baby is disobedient."
This has nothing to do with whether the baby is obedient or not, Jiang Mengyan choked for a moment, and said too much.
The child is back, it is obviously a long-lost reunion, a moment of joy and joy, why did it change like this.
Xueli pulled Chun Xin aside, knelt down and wiped her tears, she dodged away, raised her head, choked up and said, "I...it's all my fault, it's annoying."
Xueli knew what she wanted to say, she was blaming her, why did she have to be forced to come back, she didn't want to come back at all.
But they are good friends, get along day and night, share weal and woe, she can't blame her, say bad things to her.
Chun Xin felt so wronged, it was obviously her grandma who threw her out, she didn't run around, and she didn't lose her schoolbag on purpose...
Seeing that the road ahead was pitch black, she was always standing in a place where the sun couldn't shine, and she couldn't get out no matter how she walked, she cried in despair.
She opened her mouth, weeping and breathing, without making a sound from her throat, tears flowed down her face in big and big ones, and she couldn't wipe them off no matter how hard she tried.
The snot flowed into her mouth quickly, and Xueli wanted to wipe her off, but Grandma Yin took her away. Her body was hanging for a long time, and the tissue fell to the ground.
The two old and the young walked out of the gate of the police station and walked to the street. Their voices could not be heard in the snow. They only saw poisonous snakes coming out of Grandma Yin's mouth. Chun Xin rushed over.
Her steps were faltering, her shoulders were trembling, and her back was blurred, like the morning mist that was about to pass away before sunrise.
……
Staying at the hotel at night, Xueli asked her mother, "Can we bring Chun Xin to live with us?"
Jiang Mengyan was shaking the quilt, she was startled when she heard this, she slowly sat down on the bed with the corners of the quilt in her hands, crossed her legs and started to be in a daze.
Xueli leaned against the head of the bed and asked, "Is it possible?"
Jiang Mengyan said: "Let me think about it."
Xueli said, "Just go to work hard, Director Zhao is very nice."
Jiang Mengyan looked up suddenly, her eyes were wide open, the child was negotiating terms with her.
Xueli asked: "What does Mom think of Chunxin? Actually, you like her too, right? She is really pitiful."
"...Yes, that child is really pitiful. If she were your sister, I wouldn't be willing to treat her like that. This child has a hard life."
"Mom, can we ask for Chunxin? If I ask for it, Grandma Yin will definitely not even open the door for me. Please help me, let's go find out."
"You child." Jiang Mengyan was extremely helpless, "You are really whimsical, Chunxin is not a toy, it is something you can have if you want it."
Xueli said, "Actually, she is just a toy."
"What toy?" Jiang Mengyan turned to look at her, "That is a big living person, you are still good friends, how can you do this..."
"She's a punching bag." Xueli interrupted her.
Jiang Mengyan: "..." I really underestimated you.
The family can afford two children, Chun Xin is indeed pitiful, but she also has grandparents and aunts, is it that she can have what she wants?
Having met Chunxin's family, Xueli really felt that her mother was the best mother in the world.
Because I lived in Cannes with my grandparents when I was a child, my mother always felt sorry for her and accommodated her in everything. Today, my mother cried and swollen her eyes while holding her, and kept apologizing, saying that she should not be left alone with Uncle Zhao...
Of course Xueli doesn't blame her, people are all better than others, looking at Chun Xin, she doesn't feel sorry for herself at all.
Mom must still be feeling guilty that she almost never saw her precious daughter again.
——I'm sorry mom, the little padded jacket is leaking everywhere, and I'm going to plot against you again.
"Forget it, mom, just cut my toenails." Xueli crawled over and put her two little feet on her mother's thigh.
Jiang Mengyan sighed, got up and went to find the keys in the bag, found the nail clippers and came back, squatting beside the bed, "Come down, don't fly on the bed."
With this cut, she saw her daughter's feet were covered with red blisters, Jiang Mengyan was so distressed, she held her daughter's feet in both hands, and began to cry.
Xueli said: "It's all good. I made it like this because I changed shoes with Chunxin. Her shoes didn't fit, they were heavy and big. Her feet were all rotten and stuck together with the socks."
Jiang Mengyan was stunned, and then she understood, "Didn't you say forget it, you mean forget it."
Xueli turned a deaf ear, "Mom, don't you think, our family is too small. It is said that there are three members in a family, and our family only has two members. If you add Uncle Zhao and Chun Xin, you have four members..."
Jiang Mengyan: "You..."
Xueli hadn't finished speaking yet, "In case you have a younger brother or younger sister, you will have five children, two more than three, how exciting it is, when you get old, there will be three children honoring you, even though one of them is not your own. Yes, but more like your own than your own.”
Seeing her opening and closing her small mouth, Jiang Mengyan thought to herself, why do I want such a child, are they all plotting against me like you?
Jiang Mengyan sighed, "Okay, okay, don't say any more... I dare not promise you, I can only say that I will do my best, I will do my best, okay?"
Jiang Mengyan didn't lie to the child, and told her the truth, "I'll ask tomorrow, if they really don't want it, let Chunxin come to our house, okay?"
Xueli clenched her hands into fists, "Good mom, come on mom."
The next morning, Jiang Mengyan went out. Chunxin and his grandparents lived in the hostel across the street. Before they came, they made an appointment to go back by car together.
Standing by the window, Xueli watched her mother buy fruit on the roadside cart, and carried it into the gate of the guest house.
There was a watch on the wall, and Yuri looked up, counting the time for her mother to go upstairs, knock on the door, say hello, and chat before the topic.
In less than 5 minutes, Chun Xin went downstairs, Xueli saw her crossing the road and walking towards this side, jumping up and down, Xueli waited for her to walk on the sidewalk before shouting: "Chun Xin!"
Chun Xin raised his head, his face collapsed immediately, "Come down."
Xueli hurried downstairs, Chun Xin pouted and walked to the door of the hotel to pick her up unhappy, Xueli wanted to apologize to her, but she said the first sentence: "I have a dollar."
Xueli: "Huh?"
Chun Xin snorted, put his hands on his hips, "I said I have one dollar, fifty cents per person, and I'll treat you to a popsicle."
Xueli was very happy, and went to hold her hand, she hugged it in her arms and turned around.
Well, don’t hold me back, Xueli said, “I treat you to eat, let’s eat ice cream.”
"No!" Chun Xin walked forward angrily, "I have money, so I must treat you to dinner."
Xueli Pidianpidian followed, "Okay, okay, then you invite me first, and I will invite you later."
……
Before Chunxin had finished licking the popsicles, Jiang Mengyan came back, and the two primary school students met at the entrance of the hotel.
Chun Xin was about to leave, "My grandma said that I would go back after Aunt Jiang left. I'm leaving, Dongdong."
Xueli went to see Jiang Mengyan, Jiang Mengyan said, "I'll take you across the road."
failed.
Sure enough, Jiang Mengyan said after returning to the hotel: "Her grandma won't let her go, and neither will her grandpa."
Xueli: "What did you say?"
Jiang Mengyan: "I said I like Chunxin, and my family Dongdong also likes her. Her parents don't want her, but I want her. I can afford her."
Xueli sat down by the bed, pursed her lips and said nothing, Jiang Mengyan said again: "Her grandma is really cunning, as soon as she saw me, she sent Chun Xin out to buy things, and gave her a dollar, which is really generous at this time."
Jiang Mengyan shook the quilt, vented her anger with the quilt, and sat down on it after shaking, "It would be fine if Chunxin was sold by grandparents, but they just won't let him go. This child will be tortured to death sooner or later."
Yes, Yin Chunxin will die sooner or later, she is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
There is no need to rush this matter, now grandparents at least know that they don't want it, someone wants it, and if they figure it out one day, they don't want Chun Xin anymore, and they won't worry about what to do with her.
Didn't they throw Chun Xin out of the house because Yin Yuanchang was there at the time, so they could throw the child to him with peace of mind?
Knowing what kind of virtue his son is, knowing that Chun Lai was sold by him, he would not know the consequences of driving Chun Xin out and being taken away by Yin Yuanchang?
They kept Chunxin, but they just abandoned her because they couldn't be fair.
Now some people want Chunxin again, but they don't agree because there is still a lack of something that should be taken for granted.
……
Originally, the two families made an appointment to go back together, but on the day of departure, Jiang Mengyan ran to the guest house across the road to ask, and when she came back, she was so angry that she threw the quilt, "The people in the guest house told me that they checked out the day before yesterday and left. Just leave without even saying hello."
Xueli had guessed it a long time ago, "Calm down, she's narrow-minded, don't you know?"
Jiang Mengyan said: "I know, but I'm still angry." She stood at the window with her hips on her hips, her face was flushed with anger, and she was panting.
First take the train back to Nanzhou, and then take the bus back to Rong County from Nanzhou. That night, Grandma Chunxin packed Xueli's homework and clothes at Yin's house and sent them upstairs.
There is also an envelope, which contains 1000 yuan, which is the meal money for Xueli's new semester at Yin's house, which was given before the holiday.
Jiang Mengyan didn't say anything, just took it with both hands, Grandma Chunxin didn't say anything, turned around and left after delivering the things.
After closing the door, Jiang Mengyan slammed everything on the sofa when there were no footsteps in the stairwell, "I knew it would happen, stingy, so stingy!"
Xueli went back to her room, school started tomorrow, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what, and she still couldn't fall asleep even when the lights were turned off.
It's almost ten o'clock, I heard a cat meowing outside, she was a carp
