Chapter 22 Second Sister's Mind
My eldest sister was 13 years old and was already in the first grade of junior high school. Although she was also studying in the middle school in the countryside, her schoolwork was heavier than my second sister and I who were still in elementary school, so they usually came back later than us.
"I'm so embarrassed to ask? Where did you go crazy last night? My second sister came back once at noon and said you were sick. She came to my school to find me after school. I took leave in the last class, and it depends on what disease your child has?"
I felt a little moved when I heard my elder sister say this. My second sister went to elementary school in the countryside like me. It was difficult for her not to have lunch at school at noon. She was thinking about me and ran back to see me from afar. It was also difficult for my elder sister to hear that I was sick and didn’t even attend the last class. My elder sister and second sister are very fond of learning.
"Okay, sister, stop pinching him. Our mother said he had a fever." Seeing that my elder sister kept pinching my face, the second sister said quietly beside her.
My elder sister probably was too lazy to argue with me because I was sick, so she let go of my face and took out a white lunch box from her schoolbag. It was the lunch box that my elder sister used to bring for lunch. She opened the lunch box and put it in front of me and said, "It's cheap, eat it."
When I saw the lunch box, I was happy because the lunch box contained a bunch of purple grapes, which looked ripe at first glance.
I couldn't wait, and I was about to reach out to grab it, but my second sister grabbed the lunch box and said so gentlely: "I want to wash it, wait for my sister to wash it for me."
I chuckled twice, turned around and asked my elder sister: "Where did it?"
"The vines planted in my classmate's yard are later than those in the field. I heard that you are sick, will I go and ask for them without any hesitation? I have to help others copy notes for a week. If you are so naughty in the future, I will not beat you up." My elder sister spoke in a hurry, and my mind was completely on the bunch of grapes. I responded with a silly smile, no matter what my elder sister said.
Soon, my second sister washed the grapes, sat by my bed, and carefully peeled them for me, but my elder sister was still talking nonsense to scold me. I didn’t care. The grapes were sweet, what’s the matter with being scolded?
As he was eating, the second sister suddenly looked at the elder sister and said, "Sister, did you see a strange woman when you came back with me all the way?"
"What a weird woman?" My elder sister was busy scolding me and answered indifferently.
"It's just standing under the big locust tree not far from my house. I saw it accidentally," the second sister's face looked bad, as if the memories were not very pleasant.
But my elder sister didn't care at all. She was just a woman. There were not many children in this village? Sometimes it was common for people from the next village to come. Besides, isn't it normal to stand under a tree to avoid the sun?
Not only did my elder sister not care, but I didn’t care. I said that my thoughts were all on the grapes. Even if there were no grapes, I would definitely not pay attention to this little thing.
So the topic raised by the second sister was finally brought over by the elder sister: "I didn't see it. If you say a woman, she would blame her. It's not our business."
In this way, my second sister stopped talking and felt a little depressed, just feeding me grapes one by one. Obviously, suddenly my worries became very heavy, and my carefree sister like me didn't notice it at all.
I didn't notice it, so my second sister didn't mention it. She had the same personality, very quiet, as if she was afraid of trouble for others, and she was very weak.
After eating grapes for a while, my second sister seemed to have enough courage and looked at my elder sister, looking like she wanted to talk very much, but by chance, my mother shouted in the yard: "Let's rich, come." It attracted my attention!
The crispy meat is coming?! I was excited. To be honest, I was cured of illness. I could think about how long I slept, but I was bored. Now the crispy meat is coming, but I was not bored. I immediately jumped out of the bed and shouted: "Mom, is the crispy meat coming?"
This shout seemed to have dispelled the courage that my second sister had finally plucked up, and only the elder sister was left in the room to scold me: "Chen Chengyi, look at what you look like, how come you look like a patient, I am so fooled by you, and I even brought you grapes."
As soon as the crispy meat came, my elder sister took my second sister's hand and went out. They also had to do their homework, so happy that they had crispy meat with me.
As soon as the crispy meat came in, regardless of the appearance of panting because of his fatness, he spoke, "Sanwaer, I'm not a traitor."
I didn't think of this at first, but when he said that, I understood a little. If it weren't for this kid, would my dad and the others come to find me in the country yesterday? I deliberately said with a face that I was not a traitor, but my dad told me."
Suzu slashed his head and smiled embarrassedly, explaining to me: "I gritted my teeth at first! My dad picked up the broom and wanted to beat me yesterday, but I didn't betray you. I thought, I would give me chili water and go to the tiger bench, and I couldn't betray you."
"Stop talking, then you'll betray me in the end. You traitor, the Red Army team must not want you!" I'm just a fool. This kid is sometimes cute, otherwise he wouldn't be bullied by me all the time.
"Oh, no, you know I'm not afraid of scolding or beating, but I'm just afraid of not being able to eat. My dad said yesterday that if I don't say it, he wouldn't give me food for a week. He also said that what my chicken is eaten, so he'll give me what I'm going to eat! Do you know, my chicken is eating vegetable leaves and bran, how can I eat it?" The crispy meat looked sincere.
But I refused to give in. I lifted the quilt and covered my head with a soft flesh, shouting: "Comrades, we are going to defeat the traitor."
As a result, Suru and I started to have a fuss in the room. Speaking of which, Suru could save me indirectly. I was not angry with him at all. I was just bored and wanted to play a fighting hero who defeated the traitors.
It was enough crazy. Suru and I were lying straight on the bed. Because of this trouble, I sweated a lot and felt much more relaxed when I was heavy.
At this time, Suru spoke: "Sanwaer, I don't think I want to be a Red Army anymore."
“Why?”
"My father said the Red Army was not well-fed and worked hard. If you want to be a capable person, drink and eat meat every day, have electric lights and telephones at home, live in a large tiled house and a large yard, which is considered amazing."
"It sounds OK. You'll be so awesome one day. Do you want to treat me to a meal?"
"Eat? I want to treat you to braised pork! I think you are better than me, and the dog lied to you! I will definitely try my best to be such a powerful person in the future. I will earn 100 yuan when I grow up, but I think you want to help me, I am afraid I can do it."
"good!"
This conversation was quite naive at the time, but when I recall it, I think fate is a very magical thing.
This is the end of our conversation, because after a while, my mother asked Kuruo to have dinner at my house, and I still had porridge and kimchi.
My illness relaxed a lot the next day, and on the third day I could go to school alive. Life in school was still the same, but I had the same task as the meaty meat, which was to spit behind Liu Chunyan after school every day.
Then, when he met Liu Chunyan, he complained and was beaten up!
But who am I? I am a combat hero. The more I beat me, the more I vomited, the more I became, the more I became. That energetic look gave my parents a headache.
While my parents were having a headache for me, they also had another headache. That person was my second sister. Compared with my life, she has been very "Yanba" these days.
Originally, my second sister was a quiet person. At first, her silence did not attract much attention from my parents. It was not until later that she could not say a word for a day, which made my mother feel that there was less individual at home, so she noticed my second sister's situation.
My mother noticed more problems with this attention. For example, my second sister has big eyes and is quite sensual, but her eyes are often not focused recently, and it looks hollow and tight. Whenever she calls her, she will be very frightened.
In addition, my mother also found that when my second sister had eyes, her eyes were quite melancholy, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Then, my second sister's appetite became less and less, and she became paler.
After discovering these problems, one night, the lights in my parents' house didn't turn off overnight. Why did I know this? Because the small room I live in is divided into a room in their large bedroom. I was even awakened by their voices in the middle of the night, but the sound was pressed. I listened deliberately, but I couldn't hear anything.
While hearing these sounds, I also noticed the lights coming from the crack in the door. In short, when I woke up at dawn, it was still on.
