Chapter 36: The Age of Growth
"What nine years old, only ten years old, grandma is willing to give us an egg to have a pass, our birthday mother remembers the most clearly, my mother said that ten years old must be ten years old. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Sister must have remembered it wrongly" Qingli girl said and touched Wu Liuli's forehead worriedly, "I don't have a fever, why did I start talking nonsense early in the morning." ”
"I'm fine," Wu Liuli helped the girl's hand away, a little face that was too delicate was a little confused, like a lost deer, cute and pitiful: "What's my sister's name?" ”
"Why can't my sister even remember my sister's name," Qingli became more and more worried, and her willow-like eyebrows were lowered. "My sister's name is ・・・・・・"
"Tan Yueli!" Wu Liuli spoke up with the girl and said the name.
"I'm scared to death," Tan Yueli patted her chest and relaxed her eyebrows: "It turns out that my sister is teasing my sister, it's really naughty." Hurry up, you have your favorite egg custard today, come out late and be careful to be eaten by the naughty son of the uncle. ”
Wu Liuli stretched out her little hand and grabbed Tan Yueli, who got up and wanted to go out: "You are my sister, then why are you called Tan Yueli, and my name is Twelve!" ”
"This," Tan Yueli was silent for a while, rubbed her skirt uneasily, and sighed a little sadly when she saw Wu Liuli's eagerness. "My mother was a refugee who fled, and later married my father with good luck. But my grandmother was never satisfied with our family. My sister's name was obtained when my father was still alive, but then my father died. Grandma thought that the three of us were dead stars, so she almost kicked us out of the house, how could she write my sister's name on the family tree and put the family name on it, only to keep calling us by nickname. ”
As she spoke, her eyes turned red, Tan Yueli turned her head, wiped her tears, and choked her vocal cords: "Sister has something to do, go out first, sister come out quickly." ”
Wu Liuli didn't stop anymore, and watched Tan Yueli staggering out the door, her slender figure became a little illusory and transparent under the sunlight outside the door.
"I always feel like it shouldn't be like this." Wu Liuli sat on the bed, hugged her knees uneasily, and buried her head deep in her knees, as if she was avoiding something: "But, as soon as my sister said it, I remembered it." I'm twelve, a little girl whose dad died and was hated by her grandmother and other kids. I'm twelve・・・・・・"
"No!" Wu Liuli hugged her knees tightly, grabbed her head with both hands, and her glutinous children's voice was full of pain. "I'm not twelve・・・・・・ I'm not, I'm not twelve. So who am I・・・・・・ why can't I remember. ”
The more his hands rubbed harder and harder, and a few blood spots appeared on his white and tender little hands. The contrast between red and white is particularly eye-catching.
"It's so fragrant," the little hand let go of his head, and his head was slowly raised, the messy hair was scattered behind him, and a few naughty little hairs flew on his cheeks, adding a bit of cuteness. Wu Liuli's originally clear eyes were dyed with a little confusion again, and her little face opened a big smile, and her sweet dimples were like dyed honey, "I am, Twelve..."
・・・・・・
Wu Liuli changed into the only piece of clothing without patches, and when she went out of the room, she saw Tan Yueniang walking towards her like a thief.
Looking at her lovingly, he took out the small bowl hidden behind him, and carefully looked like a treasure that had been treasured for many years.
"At this time, my mother gave you steamed egg custard, eat it quickly, don't let those naughty boys find out."
Taking the porcelain bowl in Tan Yueniang's hand, Wu Liuli tasted the taste in small sips, cherished it very much, ate it for a while, and suddenly felt that something was missing, and looked around the yard. Only then did he ask, "Mother, where is my sister?" ”
"Your sister," Tan Yueniang said and frowned worriedly, "I don't know what's going on, I suddenly got seriously ill, my face was pale and pale, and now I'm lying in the house." ”
"How come," Wu Liuli said in surprise: "Obviously ・・・・・ this morning" her face was ruddy and looked very healthy.
"What else!" Seeing that Wu Liuli didn't say the second half of the sentence for a long time, Tan Yueniang couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing." Wu Liuli smiled unnaturally, for some reason, she always felt that she couldn't say the second half of the sentence, lowered her eyes, and said softly: "I just felt that my sister's face was a little wrong this morning, and it turned out that she was sick." ”
Before Tan Yueniang could ask again, a small pebble smashed into the small bowl held in her hand, and with a "pop", the small bowl cracked, cutting Wu Liuli's little hand with some flesh, and the egg custard splashed all over the ground.
", who did it?" Tan Yueniang grabbed her little hand and began to cry out to the sky. Greeting the culprit in his mouth.
"Lao Tzu did it, what's the matter?" On the wall, several little boys in coarse cloth clothes grabbed the stones with both hands, with expressions on their faces that you dare to take Lao Tzu. The answer to this sentence was a little boy in the middle who looked as cute as a jade boy.
Such a cute and innocent little boy, Tan Yueniang trembled when she saw it, for the sake of her child, she had to pretend to be tough, pointing at the little boy, but her voice couldn't stop trembling: "Gao Wenming, my family has been obediently at home recently, and she hasn't done anything, don't look like you are looking for some reason to bully her!" ”
"Hahaha..." The little boy laughed, his face as pink as jade. "She has done a lot of things, in the past few years, the old woman of your family has made fun of her every time, so that my family lost a lot of money, and the money was given, if I don't teach her a lesson, I'm sorry for my family, don't you say!"
Several children on the wall were worried about the stones in their hands, and looked at Wu Liuli, who was stunned by the little boy, with a malicious expression.
Tan Yueniang knelt on the ground and begged for a few words, looked at Wu Liuli still standing aside, and eagerly pulled her and said, "Girl, you are quick to give in, beg him more and he will let you go, kneel down." “
After pulling hard a few times, he couldn't pull it, and Wu Liuli stood firmly in place as if a stone carving had taken root.
"This girl won't be stupid," Gao Wenming scolded maliciously: "Sluts have become fools, and they are getting more and more disgusting." “
"You shouldn't be like this," Wu Liuli suddenly spoke, her eyes brightened a little: "You should be fat, fat like a fat pig, you walk with stacks of meat, and you are sloppy, they all hate you, they feel embarrassed to be with you, you are always ・・・・・・"
"Beat, beat me hard, don't let Lao Tzu let her go. Dare to scold Lao Tzu! Gao Wenming stared at Wu Liuli viciously and began to throw stones.
Stones hit Wu Liuli's body, smashing her head and bleeding, she wanted to dodge but couldn't dodge. As the stones smashed more and more, she fell, her eyes blurred again, and she stared hard at Gao Wenming on the wall, not knowing if it was because her eyes were not clear, or why. She saw that Gao Wenming's figure became a little more illusory and transparent, just like the sister she remembered.
・・・・・・
When she woke up again, in the lobby of the house, an old woman with blood-red hairpins, a mean girl, and a simple-looking man were standing on top, and Tan Yueniang was begging bitterly below.
"Mother, daughter-in-law, beg you, didn't you say that it was enough to sell Li'er to pay off the debt. Definitely not in the case of anything in our home. Why do you want to sell my twelve, mother, she's just turned twelve. It's still so small, and you'll die if you go in・・・・・・"
The old woman's eyes were crossed, and she scolded: "Hasn't the old lady been good to you in the past few years, a group of little sluts with no conscience, what about a twelve-year-old." Fourteen is not an adult who can pick up guests, the old lady has raised you for so many years, and now there are difficulties at home, and she still told me nonsense, as if she was going to force you to die, don't you just enter the Qinglou, they have a good face and must be raised with good food and drink, send her to enjoy the happiness You are still crying like death, a white-eyed wolf with no conscience・・・・・"
Tan Yueniang and the old woman's scolding, Wu Liuli couldn't listen to a word, she looked at her much thinner fingers, and her taller figure, and murmured: "I, why am I twelve years old?" ”
Seeing Wu Liuli wake up, the old woman said to her fiercely: "You dead girl, tell me, if your sister went to the Qinglou to eat and drink, she didn't come back and secretly brought you things." Lady, am I forcing you to die? Well! ”
"Qinglou?" Wu Liuli repeated, looked at the old woman who looked at her threateningly, and Tan Yueniang, who was crying, and said with some puzzlement: "Is there anything wrong with Qinglou?" Isn't it a good thing to be able to be a person in there, there is a resource treatment that outsiders envy, and many people want to go in and go in, it's a good place. ”
"You show me, this dead girl said so, you are still crying and I forced you to die, my mother and I kindly sent her to enjoy happiness."
"You, you damn girl!" Tan Yueniang picked up the broken teacup on the ground with an angry face, and her tears did not stop, and she threw herself towards Wu Liuli, "How can you say that, what kind of place is Qinglou, your sister has to behave herself for the sake of our family, you are still thinking about that place, I must not let you ruin the style of the family." ”
Wu Liuli wanted to start dodging, but she didn't expect to get up violently, and fell straight towards Tan Yueniang. Sharp porcelain slashed her neck, blood gushing out. When her eyes were closed, she only saw Tan Yueniang's stunned face.
She seems to be dead again・・・・・・
Strange, why did she say it again...
・・・・・・
"Hey, poor little girl, only fourteen years old, she is about to be sold to the Qinglou by that old pious woman. That's the land of wolves and tigers. ”
"Don't you know, her sister was also sold to the Qinglou by the old pious woman, she is now following in the footsteps of her sister, the only two children were sold, that Tan Yueniang was angry, and now she is lying on the bed and dying."
"Go away, go away. What do you old immortals say? The rough voice dispersed the crowd around him.
Wu Liuli slowly opened her eyes, only to see a big man driving an ox cart along the official road. Wu Liuli, who saw it, woke up and stopped the ox cart. Raised his big hand to knock her unconscious.
"Don't worry, I won't run. I won't cry and annoy you. Wu Liuli let out a faint voice, buried her head in her knees, and exuded an aura of loneliness and loss.
The big man can't do it, and the little girl in front of him looks sensible and pitiful. He couldn't help but feel compassion for death.
He stopped and drove the carriage away.
"Oh, it's really rare to see such a handsome little girl." The scarlet dress, the phoenix eyes are charming, and the bewitching smile at the corner of the mouth is like a living enchantress. Every move is flattering.
"You have to have a good name, and a beauty deserves a good name. in order to sell at a good price. Let's call it glass. ”
