() Bao Zixin stayed in the kitchen, silently washing dishes.

As an older brother, Bao Jingtao helps his sister with housework.

The sound of water wafting through the kitchen.

"Xinxin, how are you doing? Is there anyone bullying you at school?"

"No one bullied me, I'm fine, and my test results are not good, brother, you said that your sister-in-law is pregnant, then you have to treat her well." ”

When I was with Bao Jingtao, it was the happiest time for Bao Zi to smile.

Her brother is the sunshine of her life.

"That's for sure. By the way, you're nineteen years old, is there a little boy chasing you at school?"

Bao Jingtao looked proud and happy, Gu Xiaoni's pregnancy was the best news he had received recently.

Although there are great happy events in the family, he does not forget to gossip about his sister's love life.

"No, I think my brother is the best man in the world, and none of them can compare to you. ”

Speaking of her brother, Bao Zixin's heart is full of joy, her brother has been good to her since she was a child, and when she was a child, she also fantasized about ......

It's just that that's not possible after all.

They are brother and sister.

"You, don't always be good brother, there are a lot of boys out there, you can go and see more, talk about one in college, and you can get married after graduation. ”

Bao Jingtao didn't know anything about her careful thoughts, in Bao Jingtao's eyes, she was just a child less than twenty years old, what could she think?

"You're just trying to marry me off all day long. ”

Pouting, Bao Zixin was a little unhappy, put the last bowl in his hand on the table, and turned back to the bedroom.

"Wouldn't it be nice to find you a good family and have a good person to take care of you. ”

Knowing that Bao Zixin was angry, Bao Jingtao muttered to himself in place, he felt that what he said was right, why did she react so much.

Throwing herself on the bed, Bao Zixin's thoughts were emptied, she didn't want to think about what was going on with her sister-in-law and brother, let alone looking for other boys, she just wanted to ......

Tears flowed silently, and the past surfaced in memories.

Being adopted by the Bao family was an accident.

It was a day of heavy rain.

The continuous rain in Liangshan turned the muddy road in front of the door into a puddle of mud, and as long as she stood on the ground, her shoes would be covered with yellow mud.

Nine-year-old Bao Zixin returned to her home from school with a branch she picked up from the side of the road.

The dilapidated mud house was still leaking rain from the roof, and the elderly grandmother was lying on the bed, already dying.

When the only doctor in the village rushed to her house in the heavy rain, she told Bao Zixin that her grandmother was no longer good, and she should prepare for the future, and also told Bao Zixin that people are born with life and death, and her grandmother left peacefully.

Bao Zixin stood at the door of the house, looking at the pouring rain outside the door, tears falling down like beads with broken threads.

Liangshan is located in the mountainous area of the basin, surrounded by mountains, and the people of the village have lived on agriculture for generations.

Bao Zixin's parents, when she was six years old, went out to work and had a car accident.

The perpetrator was a disabled person, and the perpetrator went to prison and lost a sum of money, which her uncle took away, in the name: "You are too young to take so much money." ”

As a result, Bao Zixin had no money in his hands.

Grandpa left early, and only the uncle and grandmother who ate, drank, prostituted and gambled were left at home.

Grandma knew what kind of person Uncle was and insisted on letting Bao Zixin live with her and not let Uncle see her, for fear that Bao Zixin would be hurt again.

On the day of her grandmother's death, she took the family's shovel and, with the help of the well-wishers in the village, put her grandmother in the ground.

Grandma is gone, and the work at home still has to be done.

The weekend passed quickly, and on Monday, finally without afternoon, she walked two kilometers of mountain roads to school.

The school house is also not good, the red adobe bricks are exposed, and the so-called playground is just a bulldozed and gravel field.

Today, there are volunteers who come to teach them to learn.

Bao Zixin had just experienced the death of her family, her eyes were red and swollen like walnuts, and in the winter, she was only wearing a thin black coat, which was covered with muddy water, looking like a puppy that had just come out of the mud, pitiful and helpless.

When the volunteer teachers arrived, the two boys arrived at the school, came to the classroom, and stood in front of Bao Zixin.

Bao Zixin has seen a few boys who teach, but he has never seen such a handsome boy.

He is wearing a black down jacket, the bangs on the top of his head are placed on his forehead casually, the high bridge of his nose is like a carefully carved artwork under the artist's hands, his facial features are three-dimensional, and his skin is as white and transparent as milk.

After the two of them introduced themselves, she knew that the boy in front of her was named Bao Jingtao, who had just turned eighteen years old.

Bao Jingtao, who volunteered to teach, also brought some aid supplies, he picked and chose the clothes that his friends didn't want, and chose the better ones and brought them to the school in Liangshan, because there were only 20 children in the whole school, the ages were uneven, and the clothes were of different sizes, resulting in some children's clothes not fitting.

But in the mountains, it's nice to have clothes.

What Bao Zixin received was a small pink padded jacket, which she carefully wore on her body for fear of getting it dirty.

Sitting on a bench made of long wooden strips, she felt such intimate warmth for the first time.

Like a winter stove warmed her heart.

Suddenly, she wanted to get closer to him.

Not because of anything else, but because she wanted to know what the outside world was like.

On the other side of the mountain, will there be the sea?

Children in the city don't like to eat vegetables as much as she does.

She wants to understand what life is like outside, and she wants to work hard to get out of this mountain.

When Bao Jingtao knew about her family's situation, he told his parents that his parents felt that Bao Zixin was pitiful, so they adopted her directly.

After leaving the mountains, she found that the existence of a big city was like a dream world that she had never seen before.

It turns out that there is a Ferris wheel in the playground, and you can see the scenery in the distance.

The mall is so clean, even if you don't wear shoes, there will be no stones to scratch the soles of your feet.

In the store, there are a variety of dresses and clothes, and as long as she wants, her brother can buy them for her.

She lived like a princess.

Before she arrived at Bao's house, she didn't even have an official name, only the nickname her grandmother gave her, Vanilla.

When she came to Bao's house, she had a new name, Bao Zixin.

She likes the new name very much, which was given to her by Bao Jingtao.

As long as it was given to her by her brother, she liked it.

She studied hard in school, her grades were very competitive, and she was in the top five of her grade in every test, and there were countless awards in the room.

In addition to this, she also loves sports and has great sports results.

Her hard work and competitiveness made the Bao family very pleased, in front of Xu An, she was a good boy and never naughty and mischievous.
