Chapter 26: Unexpected Gifts
went in a hurry, and returned in despair, before Zijun entered the courtyard, she heard Zimei call her.
"Sister, sister, the village handed you a parcel in the afternoon. "In rural areas, receiving packages is still relatively rare.
"Where did you send the parcel?" Zijun took the parcel from his sister suspiciously.
"I see the address is Guangzhou, sister, sister, is there someone chasing you in the factory?" hehe......" Zimei has thought about this possibility countless times in his heart.
"No, don't think about it. β
"Sister, let's see what it is. "If it weren't for my brother's refusal to open my sister's parcel, she would have done it a long time ago.
Zijun was also very curious, and when he opened it, it turned out to be sent by Yao Jing from Guangzhou, and there was a small piece of letter paper inside, which was folded into the shape of a thousand paper cranes.
"Thousands of paper cranes, sister, someone must be chasing you!" Zimei was excited, "A thousand paper cranes, thousands of hearts fly ...... in the wind."
"Little girl, if you don't learn well at a young age, you can't chase anything!" Zi'an knocked on her sister's head.
"Brother, you knocked me stupid!"
"Zijun, are you okay at home? I went shopping with them that day, and I found that this scarf was very beautiful, and I thought it was a good match, so you bought it. You must accept it, it is a New Year's gift, they have it, and I gave it to you, so you are not allowed to refuse. Yao Jing"
Zijun looked at the date, and it turned out to be the day after she returned, it was a bright red woolen scarf and a pair of leather gloves.
The scarf is fluffy and soft, dazzling with the white clothes, and the gloves are soft and delicate to the touch, with a fine layer of velvet inside, which is warm to the touch. Zijun couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart, Brother Jing is really a delicate person, and he even thought of this.
"Sister, who gave it to you, it's so beautiful?"
"Colleague. β
"Male or female colleagues?"
"Female colleague. In the face of his sister's search for the roots, Zijun was very helpless.
"Anyway, I don't believe it, this is obviously a trick to chase girls!"
"Okay, male colleague, but he's just like my brother. Moreover, he bought all the girls in our dormitory. Zijun didn't think too much about it, Yao Jing's generosity was famous in the factory. She went back this time and brought gifts for each of them.
"That's still it, sister, this kind of flowery man is the most important. β
"What do you think, he's my colleague's brother, and he has a good relationship with a few people in our dormitory, so it's what you think. β
"Sister, otherwise you can give me the scarf. β
"No, I can't. β
"Why can't it work, it wasn't sent by my boyfriend. β
"Whether it's a boyfriend or not, it's someone else's heart, how can I just transfer it to someone else. β
"I'm your sister, your sister, you know?
"Junjun is right, you can't trample on other people's minds casually, I and Junjun will buy you whatever you want. β
"Brother, don't you want to be so exaggerated, it's just a scarf. Zimei shouted unconvinced.
"You're just naΓ―ve. Zi'an stretched out his hand and knocked on Xiaomei's head, Zimei hit him indiscriminately, and Zijun watched it funny from the side.
"Brother, when are you going to school?"
"I'm still early, I'll take you to the train station tomorrow. β
"No, I came by myself. The train station is too far away, and it is too troublesome to send it back and forth. β
"Why don't you use it, the girl's family brings so many things. Even if I don't say it, Dad will definitely let me give it to you. Zi'an was very persistent.
"Sister, I don't want you to go......" Thinking that her sister was leaving again, Zimei completely lost the mood she was in just now.
"Piece, go to school hard, and strive to be admitted to Longcheng No. 1 Middle School, okay?" Zijun hugged his sister.
"I'll try, but I can't guarantee that. You're too difficult. Zimei muttered.
"Okay, good, good, try your best, anyway, there is a reward for doing a good job. β
"There are also rewards for doing well in the exam. β
"Okay, then it's up to me!" rushed to the reward, and Zimei suddenly became proud.
"What do you say about the brothers and sisters?" Chen Zhili came over from the kitchen, "Your mother has made dinner, let's go eat quickly." β
"Dad, my brother and sister said that as long as I am admitted to Longcheng No. 1 Middle School, there will be a reward. β
"That's the award, if you are admitted to Longcheng No. 1 Middle School, Dad will also have an award. β
"yes, that's great. Zimei happily ran towards the kitchen, and the people behind him shook their heads.
Tomorrow is about to leave, after dinner, the family sits there around the fire, the atmosphere is a little sluggish.
"Junjun, don't think about saving money outside, there will be a chance to earn money in the future, and your body will collapse, but there will be nothing. Chen Zhili slowly spoke, fiddling with the firewood.
"Well, I will, Dad!"
"Junjun, brother......"
"I'm really good in the factory, really!" Zijun interrupted Zi'an's words, they felt sorry for her, yesterday her father was still persuading her not to go out to work, but the family owed so much money, and her brother's tuition for the next school year had not yet been settled. Now the family needs her!
"Dad, I've grown up, don't worry. β
"Don't make trouble for your third uncle, and help your third aunt more when you have time. Wang Lanfang confessed that she was reluctant to give up her daughter, but she was not the only one who went out to work, and when the child was older, she should do something for the family. Last night, Chen Zhili lay on the bed crying, reluctant to let his daughter go out, and the husband and wife quarreled a few words. Wang Lanfang was not in a good mood all day today.
"I will, Mom. β
Although Zijun repeatedly emphasized that she could go alone, Zi'an finally sent her to the train station. The style outside the train station was cold, and the brother and sister stood there with a particularly tragic feeling, and they didn't talk much. What should be said and what can be said has already been said too much before going out, and they are silent at the moment.
There are more people going out than when they come back, and it's not the starting point, so the time to get on the bus is a little rushed. Stumbling and finally being squeezed onto the train, Zijun got everything done and looked out the window again, when her brother was still standing in the wind, searching for her figure outside the window. Zijun stretched out his hand and beckoned out the window.
"Brother, go back, it's cold outside. β
"Junjun, be careful. I waited for the car to leave before leaving. Before Zi'an's words were finished, the train was already slowly starting, Zijun leaned against the window until he couldn't see his brother's figure clearly before retracting his gaze, and a crystal tear slipped quietly from the corner of his eye. She knew that her parents were arguing, and when she got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet the night before yesterday, she heard her mother crying and saying that if Junjun hadn't brought money back, there would be no money for the Chinese New Year, and you still wanted Junjun to go to school, was this going to force me to death? She knew the situation at home, and she wouldn't have gone back to school without her mother. It's just that my heart still hurts!
Zi'an stood on the platform, let the cold wind blow, and remembered what his sister said: "Brother, you go to school hard, you are good, and my sister will be better in the future." "I said silently in my heart, sister, you are good, and my brother can be really good, so we all have to be good.
