"Singing, six fingers," the head of the class lowered his head and snorted twice, but did not speak again.

Xu Chunqiu was still staring at him with blazing eyes.

"Okay, you have to take her away," the head of the class raised an eyebrow, "as long as she's willing to chop off her sixth finger." ”

"Just taking advantage of the cold weather, the wound is not easy to rot, and it will be troublesome in the summer. ”

The child cowering in the corner seemed to be frightened by the stranger's sudden words, and stepped back hand and foot, her back against the cold wall, and there was no way out.

"She's still that young. ”

Xu Chunqiu stubbornly stood in front of the child, her face still had a little oil paint that had not been removed, and a pair of eyes looked at the class master fixedly in the dim sky.

"No, it's not good, how can the six fingers of singing go on stage, and what do the audience think when they see it?"

"My Yuhua class doesn't raise waste people, if this child's finger is not chopped, don't think about expecting people to feed him for no reason. ”

"I feed her. Xu Chunqiu said.

She lifted the small, soft child up under her armpit and stroked her hair.

"I don't need Yuhuaban to support her, I will support her myself. ”

"She eats me, wears me, and sleeps under the same bed with me. ”

"You don't need to teach the play, I'll teach her myself. ”

The class leader looked at the red horn that was the pillar of his team, and then looked at the dirty child she was holding in her hand, and silently measured it in his heart.

He compromised.

"Okay, okay, bring it back and you will feed yourself, don't get in the way of everyone's business. ”

Xu Chunqiu squatted down again, took the little girl's hand and asked, "What's your name?"

The little girl was vague, still shrunken: "......"

Xu Chunqiu slowed down his speech: "Do you remember, what is your name?"

"Su ...... Su ......"

"Sue what?"

The little girl's dirty hand wiped a handful on her face, and she didn't remember.

The class owner pouted: "How old are the children, I don't even know my name, isn't it stupid?"

Xu Chunqiu said: "I can't remember my name before Young Master Lu gives me my name. ”

He then turned his eyes away and said no more.

Xu Chunqiu said patiently: "It's okay, Su Su, it's okay if you don't remember your name, I'll take you home." ”

The little girl held her hand firmly, clinging to her with some dependence.

Xu Chunqiu took her hand and walked, while secretly thinking to himself: "It's not a matter if you don't have a name, if you don't dislike it, why don't I get you one?"

The little girl rubbed over slimyly, and she had some meaning of obedience to Xu Chunqiu.

"Hmm...... Not as late as dawn and dusk, no spring and autumn. ”

"My name is Xu Chunqiu, or you can call Su Chaodui. ”

The little girl's big black grape-like eyes looked at her in confusion, and then nodded earnestly.

Su Chao bowed under the door of the head of the Yuhua class, and logically speaking, he should call Xu Chunqiu "senior sister".

But Xu Chunqiu is far more than a senior sister to her.

Su Chaodui has six fingers on her left hand, she is a deformity, she has been bullied because of this in the past few days she has been in the troupe. But every time she was bullied, she returned to Xu Chunqiu's house pitifully like a cat, and she rushed out like a cub to find a place for her.

came and went, and most of the children in the troupe were a little scared of her.

When it was time to learn drama, the master saw that she was six-fingered, and he didn't like her very much, so from the beginning, her play was taught by Xu Chunqiu.

Xu Chunqiu took her to press her hips, pull ligaments, teach her how to shout and make sounds, strangle her head, paint her face, and carefully trace her eyebrows.

When she first appeared on stage, the master remembered the mutilation of her fingers, and specially arranged a supporting role for throwing off her sleeves, with only one sentence.

Su Chaodui hid his six fingers in his water sleeve and went on stage, and the only sentence was that he was out of luck.

She sang and sang, and she broke her voice and broke her tune.

The class owner beat his chest in the audience and suddenly regretted why he let Su Chaodui come to the stage in the first place, for fear that the audience would hear some clues and splash tea stalks and melon seed skins on the stage.

The expected boos did not come, Xu Chunqiu stood in the center of the stage and picked it up with ease, holding Su Chaodui's bad tune, and then continued to sing smoothly, so that people could not hear the slightest inappropriateness.

Su Chaodui looked at Xu Chunqiu's back in a daze, and was speechless for a while. Fortunately, she only had one sentence, and she stepped off the stage with a flick of her sleeve.

......

The distant thoughts were pulled back suddenly, but he saw that Xu Chunqiu's appearance was the same as before, but he was already dying, and his time was running out.

Her eyes were wet, and she heard Xu Chunqiu gasp: "Susu, what's the matter with your hands?"

Xu Chunqiu took her hand in three or two steps as if she was a child holding her hand in the dirty alley, and carefully touched her severed finger.

Her hands, like her face, were wrinkled, spotted, and withered like banyan branches. The left hand was still five fingers at the end of the hand, and the position of the sixth was cut off by Qi Gen, an ugly scar like a centipede.

Xu Chunqiu was stunned, Su Chaowan was such a person who was afraid of pain, when she was in the team in the past, she would rather not go on stage than cut off that finger, why is it broken now.

When Su Chaodui saw her, he showed a relieved smile and said lightly: "Something has happened over the years. ”

Xu Chunqiu saw that she didn't want to say more, so he also avoided this topic and didn't mention it again.

The two of them talked for a long time, and Su Chaowan suddenly said, "Senior sister, wait a minute." ”

"I have something for you. ”

She slowly turned around, took out a small box that looked like some years old from the drawer at the bottom of the box, and she stuffed it into Xu Chunqiu's hand.

Xu Chunqiu opened it and saw that there was no special treasure in it, just a thin red rope.

"It'......," she looked up in surprise.

Ever since Su Chaodui saw Xu Chunqiu, she has been wearing a ring with red thread around her neck, red gold agate.

Su Chaowan nodded: "It's your red line." ”

Later, the world became more and more chaotic, and she still couldn't keep the ring for Xu Chunqiu, leaving only a bare red rope.

She sighed: "There was an auction a few days ago, I asked Shanshan to look at it for me, she said it seemed to be watching, but unfortunately it made people cut off their beards......"

I saw Xu Chunqiu bend his eyes, take out a small gold velvet box from his bag, and open it to see that it was the ring of red gold agate.

"The one who cut off Hu Shanshan...... Is that you?" Su Chaodui's tone was a little excited.

Xu Chunqiu shook his head, as if he suddenly remembered something, and lowered his head and smiled: "Someone bought it for me." ”

She wore the ring with that red string and wore it around her neck as she had worn many, many years ago.

Now the stool is back to its rightful owner.
