There was no sound in the room, my parents seemed to have gone back to the room to discuss things, and my room was equally deadly silent, except for Li Xin's occasional uncontrollable sobs.

She was like an abandoned child, sitting curled up as she had been on that night three years ago.

My heart was blocked for a while, and my body was in pain. But I didn't know what to say to Li Xin, I didn't know how to comfort her, so I had to look at her like this and encourage her with my eyes, but she didn't look at me and sobbed to herself.

I thought to myself that she had suffered enough, the school was her only refuge, and I also believed that she would get ahead in the future, maybe become a white-collar worker, maybe a teacher, or even a graduate doctor or something, she had good grades, she would do it.

Now letting her go to work will ruin her life, and I resolutely do not allow it. Exhaled softly, the sound of the breath broke the dead silence, Li Xin actually trembled, she seemed to be frightened by my voice.

Then she started to move away from me, got up and walked to the bed. My heart is bitter, is she still resisting me?

The next moment she crouched down again and began to rummage through the same cabinet where she had hidden. I was stunned, but I saw that she had found a Band-Aid from a long time ago.

The Band-Aid was already dirty, and there was still dust on the surface. But I guess it can still be used, and now I can only use this one.

My heart was hot, my nose was sore, and when she was a child, she secretly hid the medicine she needed, and I lost only Band-Aids.

She approached me with a Band-Aid and looked down, and I suddenly felt a little panicked and my body tensed. I don't know if I'm afraid, but what am I afraid of?

Li Xin squatted down, she never looked at me, and I didn't dare to look at her, turned my head to look at the floor, and after a while I felt something on my face, and she put a band-aid on the wound on my face.

Then came the neck and arms, and the last dozen band-aids were all gone. This childlike way of using it seemed funny, but my tears flowed uncontrollably, and then my body trembled and trembled, and I suddenly wanted to hold her tightly.

But she walked away again, and sat on the other end, with her head buried in her knees, as if asleep.

I just looked at her here, like something was choking in her throat, what should I say?

As a result, I didn't say anything, and I gradually became groggy, and the pain in my body and the bitterness in my heart made it impossible for me to stay awake anymore.

I fell asleep at some point and had a nightmare that Li Xin was taken away and drowned in the black smoke and miasma of the Pearl River Delta.

I woke up suddenly, and my whole body was covered in cold sweat. There was some early morning glimmer by the window, and it was already morning.

I was the only one in the room, and I was lying on the bed.

What about Li Xin? I was scared to death, where did she go? I immediately jumped out of bed, pulled the wound and burst into tears, I didn't care, I ran out like crazy.

There was no one in the house, and my parents may have gone to work in the city, but they were not at home.

I searched around and didn't find anything, I was really frightened, could it be that my parents secretly took Li Xin away at night?

This idea was a bit unrealistic, but I was still panicked and hurried to Daqiang's house.

Fortunately, I saw that Daqiang's parents were at home, which means that Li Xin has not been taken away, so where did she go?

She didn't dare to go back to school without permission, so she was definitely not on the other side of the road, so I ran around the town and ran past the old doctor's clinic only to be stopped by him.

I said what's wrong? He asked me, "Aren't you injured?"

The old doctor coughed twice and sighed: "Your sister just came to me to buy bone-setting pills, saying that you were injured." She didn't have any money, so I gave her a little. ”

One moment my nose was so sore, and the next moment I felt like I was going to cry. The old doctor told me not to run, lest I get hurt on top of my injuries.

But I couldn't care about it, so I ran home with a cigarette. Li Xin really came back, she was also looking for me, I don't know where I went.

I was on fire inside, and I rushed over to hug her, and she turned white with fright, and then she came to her senses and hurriedly pushed me.

I let go of her, and she threw the bone-setting pill to me and went back to the house, still sad and desolate between her brows.

I took a deep breath, took two bone-setting pills, and went to Daqiang's house.

Now that my parents are not home, I have to hurry up and fix this.

Daqiang's parents watched TV at home and talked leisurely.

I knocked on the door and entered, and they were all surprised. I said bluntly: "Uncle and aunt, please don't take my sister to work." ”

My tone was very stiff, and I didn't know how to say it politely, so I had to say it dryly. They glanced at each other, and then smiled bitterly: "You have to tell your parents about this, we can't ask them not to take Li Xin." ”

I said that you can just accept Li Xin, and my parents can't help it.

Daqiang's father still shook his head: "Li Chen, I asked your parents to go to work at the beginning, they couldn't let you go, now that you are in high school, they will definitely go to work, but they are looking for me when I happen to set up a factory, even if I don't accept them and your sister, they will still take your sister to work, the Pearl River Delta is full of factories, and the salary is not much different." ”

I was terrified, how could this be? That is to say, if Daqiang's parents did not set up a factory, my parents would also take Li Xin to work?

I'm at a loss, what can I do?

Feeling dazed and helpless, how can I resist my parents?

I was very depressed and panicked, and the key problem was not with Daqiang's parents, but with my parents.

I walked aimlessly around town for a while, then bought a knife, and maybe that was the only way to go, and if they did, I would have to die.

There was nothing to do all day, and the parents would only come back in the evening. Li Xin and I stayed in the house and didn't say anything.

The parents came back when it was dark, and they came back early this morning. I drank a large glass of water, took a deep breath, and went to the hall with a knife to meet them.

They were exhausted and covered in dust. I didn't want to get to this point today, but I can't help it.

There was another sourness, but it continued. I pulled out a knife and stuck it to my wrist. I've always heard of suicide by cutting my wrists, and I'll try it today.

That's how I appeared in front of them. The extremely tired parents' eyes widened instantly, and the father and mother were all startled, and they all shouted: "Li Chen, what are you doing!"

My throat squirmed, and my voice was shaking: "It's me who is not filial, I just beg you not to take Li Xin away, if you don't agree, I will commit suicide." ”

I tried to speak as calmly as I could, but my father ignored him and strode over: "You're crazy!"

I stepped back, and the knife slashed at my wrist: "Don't come here!"

Blood came out immediately, and I really didn't think I had the courage to really cut myself myself. But this time the artery was not cut, but as soon as the blood came out, the parents were frightened, and the father immediately did not dare to come again.

They also felt that cutting their wrists would kill people, so they did not dare to act rashly. I also thought that I had cut my wrists, and I was afraid for a while, but the blood stopped flowing after a while, so I slowed down and forced them: "Do you agree?"

My father's face turned pale, and my mother burst into tears: "Li Chen, we really can't afford to raise Li Xin, you will have a lot of money in the future, it will be good for her if we take her to work." ”

My face turned cold: "Then don't support me, I'll go to work!"

The father scolded again, the mother cried miserably, and then she suddenly ran to the kitchen.

I don't know what she's going to do, she came out after a while, and she actually held a kitchen knife and put it on her neck: "Li Chen, you will understand in the future, we are all for your good, you force us like this, I will force you, if you don't put down the knife, I will die for you!"

I was crazy, she was forced to die, I didn't expect the bloody thing on TV to happen in our family, but it did, right in front of my eyes.

I felt that I was out of strength in an instant, and my mother burst out with tenacity that she had never felt before, she cried: "The salary outside is very high, we will leave some pocket money for Li Xin, she just can't study anymore, and she will live better than now." We want money to send you to college, and we have to treat your grandparents, but we can't help it. You put down the knife, or I'll really die for you!"

Why is this happening? Why are my parents so ruthless? I burst into tears, and my family ties around my neck like a dead knot, leaving me breathless.

My father immediately rushed over, and I couldn't muster up the extra strength to stop him, so he snatched the knife and slapped me to the ground: "You unfilial son!"

I didn't speak anymore, I turned my head to see that Li Xin was standing at the door of the room at some point, she looked at this family farce with trembling, and then said in a dead voice: "I will go." ”
