Chapter 50: Fragrant Bones (1)
"Alright. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info mom got it. Yibai is the mother's most well-behaved and intelligent child. What's the matter, will you say tomorrow? Mom and dad are tired from a long day at work and want to lie down early to rest. Mom touched Jiang Yibai's head and said softly.
"Oh-" Jiang Yibai had no choice but to lie down dejectedly and continue to sleep. But the brain that had just been excited had already driven away the sleepiness.
That day, Jiang Yibai didn't fall asleep until much later.
After a simple wash, the sound of Mom and Dad's breathing soon sounded next to them. Jiang Yibai's eyes widened, and he said the unfinished sentence over and over again in his heart.
I drew it, you see this is you, this is Dad, and this little one is me.
As he spoke, the corners of Jiang Yibai's eyes moistened.
She hugged Ash tightly and swallowed back the broken whimper in her throat.
Xiao Ash still looked so cute and innocent, and his red eyes didn't move to look at Jiang Yibai, who plunged his head into his arms.
That painting was finally left behind by Jiang Yibai.
It was never taken out again to get the praise it was supposed to give.
Jiang Yibai is more sensible, and she no longer begs her mother to put down her work to accompany her.
Even after the summer vacation, I read the villain book at home every day, played around, and then crawled into bed early and fell asleep.
Occasionally, she would climb on the windowsill and look out over the windowposts.
But no matter how you look at it, that's it. A narrow side of the world, and scattered traces of people that only appear at noon and night.
Jiang Yibai felt tired of reading it when she got used to it, and now, she was more interested in a colorful picture book.
The picture book was borrowed by a classmate before the summer vacation, and all kinds of demons and monsters in it lit up Jiang Yibai's gloomy eyes.
Soon in the sullen afternoon, Jiang Yibai finished reading the villain book and rolled a few times lonely on the bed.
The sun shines through the glass, and there is a warm smell on the bed.
Jiang Yibai forgot how long it had been since he had played in the sun, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved, and immediately put his little head on the windowsill.
The afternoon sun was still a little strong, and Jiang Yibai felt dizzy after a while.
However, this dizzy feeling not only did not make her retreat, but her heart was happy and tight.
The desire that had been suppressed in my heart for a long time resurfaced.
I want to go out, I want to go out.
Even if it's just basking in the sun.
Jiang Yibai is not a native of this place, she came here with her parents.
Her home is in the countryside, a small village with hot sunshine and lush greenery.
Grandma Jiang Yibai passed away this year, and there was no one to take care of her. So, Jiang Yibai was taken by his parents to their place of work and took care of Jiang Yibai in person.
However, Jiang Yibai was not familiar with this place at all.
There were strangers everywhere, and all sorts of cars on the rampage. The place is also very large, and there are winding roads everywhere.
Jiang Yibai was extremely scared.
She could only hold her mother's hand tightly and follow behind her father and mother timidly.
Finally, they arrived at their new home. An old yard with three families. Where they lived, it was a long, narrow living room that was transformed. The whole room was dark and gloomy, except near the windows.
During the day, as long as the parents go out, they lock the house tightly. Only when he comes back in the evening, the gate will be open for a while, and Jiang Yibai can also go out and play in the yard for a while.
In addition to Jiang Yibai's house in the courtyard, there is also one room where the landlord lives and two outsiders. One of the outsiders is a middle-aged couple, and the other is a taciturn brother in his twenties.
Jiang Yibai has seen these when he goes out to play. But usually everyone works outside during the day, and Jiang Yibai is the only one in the entire courtyard.
The window opened to the alley, and not far away was the back door of the courtyard.
Jiang Yibai remembered, as if the back door was the residence of the middle-aged couple. Because one afternoon, Jiang Yibai saw the chubby woman coming out of the back door and locked the door.
Who knows, this time, about the same time, I saw the chubby woman again.
The middle-aged couple made ends meet by opening a breakfast shop near the factory across the street. Although it is an early shop, in addition to steamed buns and porridge, it also sells some sauerkraut noodles and noodles.
Due to the high quality and low price, the lunch of workers near the factory who want to save a few dollars will also be solved in the breakfast shop.
Generally, factories leave work around 5 p.m., but before that, middle-aged couples will be prepared enough to be too late when they are busy, which will affect their income. So it's usually time to pack up after lunchtime, and it's almost time to prepare dinner.
These are all things that Jiang Yibai said when he listened to his parents chatting.
Middle-aged couples do go out early and return late every day, and even heard that they get up earlier and return later than their parents.
Jiang Yibai rolled his eyes and looked out.
After a while, the fat woman disappeared behind the door.
Just as Jiang Yibai was about to retract his gaze in disappointment, a sneaky figure appeared looking left and right.
Bad guys -
A word suddenly flashed in Jiang Yibai's mind, and she immediately lowered her head in shock.
Mom said that if you see someone sneaky and suspicious nearby, you have to hide. Those thieves are all bad people who kidnap children.
The more he recalled his mother's words, the more frightened Jiang Yibai became, was that person a thief?
It was just a distant shadow, and Jiang Yibai didn't see it clearly.
Her heart is flustered, her parents are not at home, what if the bad guys come and kidnap her? If she is abducted, she will never see her parents again...... For a while, Jiang Yibai's heart was beating so fast that he was about to jump out.
She squatted by the window in fear, and was afraid that the bad guy peeked at the window, and always felt unsafe, so she wanted to change places.
After thinking about it, the only place that made her feel safe was under the bed, and Jiang Yibai didn't hesitate at the moment, and quickly ran to the bottom of the bed to hide.
Will he peek out of the window? Jiang Yibai thought in confusion.
You can't see yourself even if you look at it, can you? After all, he was already hiding under the bed. Jiang Yibai listened to the sound of his pounding heartbeat, and couldn't help but shrink his body into a ball and shrink again.
He hid for a long, long time, until the sunlight in the room could no longer be seen, and Jiang Yibai dared to move out from under the bed.
By this time, it was already evening.
Jiang Yibai stretched his neck under the window uncomfortably and looked around.
In the alley, groups of workers were walking noisily.
The sneaky figure was gone.
Jiang Yibai's heart that had been hanging finally fell back.
In the night, Mom and Dad returned. Jiang Yibai forcibly endured his sleepiness and told his mother about it, and her mother comforted Jiang Yibai for a while, and also told her some safety matters that must be kept in mind.
