Chapter 17: Resentment and Pain
At noon the next day, Lu Xiaobai returned to his aunt's house, and Yang Zhifang asked him where he went last night with a sullen face, why didn't he say hello to her, and thought he was missing again. Lu Xiaobai said timidly that he went to the same school. At first, he thought that his aunt would reprimand him viciously, and even grabbed a feather duster and beat him violently, but the situation was beyond his expectations.
What surprised him even more was that his aunt used a peaceful tone to persuade him to study hard and not to waste his studies.
Could it be that the sun is coming out of the west?
Lu Xiaobai secretly wondered what her intentions were, did she scare her when she went to the same school last night and didn't tell her, she was afraid that she would take responsibility for some mistakes, so she compromised?
Hey, I guess so!
He was secretly proud of his shrewd conjecture, and he thought that if his aunt was still mean to him, he would run to the same school's lodging and turn her into an ant on a hot pot.
In fact, he didn't guess right, the reason why his aunt's attitude took a 180-degree turn was because his mother sent her a large amount of money, and when she saw the money, she thought that as long as she was good to Lu Xiaobai, his mother would often send her money.
During the meal, Yang Zhifang said politely: "Xiaobai, you are growing your body with lean meat, eat more." โ
Lu Xiaobai lowered his head and chewed his food silently, with an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth. The reason why he laughed was because there was a pair of "eyes" outside of his naked eyes, which had an incomparably powerful perspective function, and could see the hypocritical face hidden behind his aunt's "mask".
But he secretly thought, let her be hypocritical, I won't expose her, as long as she doesn't beat and scold me, everything will be fine.
Lu Xiaobai had only lived a few days of calm and calm, and another "turbulent wave" unexpectedly rushed towards him, making him fall into the abyss of pain!
Here's what happened: After school that morning, he cleaned the classroom and walked home alone with a black and white contrasting backpack. He came to a place more than 500 meters away from his home, and suddenly saw two men, two women, and four children taller than him standing in the middle of the road in front of him, all dressed as students, one of them was his cousin Wu Hongyan, and he didn't know any of the other three. Four pairs of eyes looked at him in unison, burning his heart like electricity, he deliberately slowed down, he didn't know why they were looking at him like this, what were they going to do?
He walked about two feet away from them, and one of the boys, who had a purple birthmark on his left neck, said to him loudly, "Hey, I heard that your mother is a vixen who specializes in seducing married men, right?" โ
Like a blow to the head, Lu Xiaobai's mind "buzzed", and he quickly made an instinctive reaction to maintain his self-esteem: "You are talking nonsense, my mother is not a vixen, your mother is a vixen!" โ
As soon as his words fell, the four of them laughed.
"Don't laugh! Don't laugh, don't laugh! Lu Xiaobai yelled.
The boy with the birthmark on his left neck clasped his hands around his chest, looking provocative: "Your mother is a vixen, you are the son of a vixen!" โ
Another unbridled mockery, greedily sucking his secrets and hurts like a vampire, leaving him restless and on the verge of a mental breakdown!
Lu Xiaobai couldn't bear it anymore, roared and rushed over, ready to hit the boy with his head on the birthmark on his left neck, and the boy dodged away when he saw this. Lu Xiaobai turned around and bumped again, and the boy was clever again.
The laughter is still surging and noisy like a tidal wave.
Lu Xiaobai knew that his cousin deliberately brought out his family ugliness, and she must have transferred her resentment towards his mother to him, and then vented it with the help of other people's mouths to make him hurt.
What sinister intentions! Lu Xiaobai glared at his cousin fiercely.
He knew that he couldn't fight the mouths of the four people in front of him, and that if he stood here for one more second, he would suffer one more second of humiliation, so he ran away with resentment and mania.
He ran wildly and rampage, and the whirring wind blew past his ears, and many passers-by threw him astonished glances, which made him feel uncomfortable, as if he were a monkey being played with in their eyes, and he ran into a cramped alley. The alley was dark and silent, filthy and messy, like an abandoned cecum; It seems that only in such a relatively closed environment can he avoid the eyes of discrimination.
He hated his dissolute mother, hated the people who had just laughed at him, and he slammed his fist against the wall in anger, and his hands were bleeding, but he didn't know the pain, he just felt numb.
He crouched in the corner, his hands tightly blindfolded, and let the flames of pain burn in his heart for a long time before he got up.
He went to Feng Tianyu's house. Perhaps at this moment, there is only one person who can understand the pain in his heart - this person is Feng Tianyu.
Feng Tianyu saw that his tears were not dry, and knew that he had been wronged again, so he asked the reason.
Lu Xiaobai said pitifully: "They bullied me. โ
"Who bullied you? I'll settle accounts with him! Feng Tianyu said angrily.
"No need! I just want to play with you. Lu Xiaobai was afraid that those who laughed at him would sue Feng Tianyu for their family scandal, and he would have no face in front of Feng Tianyu, so he hurriedly dissuaded him.
"You are my brother, your business is my business, others bully you, how can I not care? Walk! I must teach you a lesson! Feng Tianyu said as he tugged at his arm.
Lu Xiaobai broke away from his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it!" Actually, it's fine. โ
"Are you really okay?"
Lu Xiaobai smiled reluctantly: "It's really fine." โ
"Well, if they still dare to bully you, you tell me, I'll trouble them!"
Feng Tianyu went into the house, scooped a big bowl of stewed chicken and handed it to Lu Xiaobai: "You shouldn't have eaten, right?" Eat it and I'll take you somewhere to play. โ
Lu Xiaobai really didn't eat, he took the bowl in his hand, took a piece of chicken with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, and chewed it.
It's better to bow to the big brother!
After eating the chicken, Feng Tianyu took Lu Xiaobai and walked towards the nearby river. When they came to the river, they went up the bank again, and after walking for about fifteen minutes, they came to an embankment, and saw the river flowing down from the embankment, like a waterfall.
The water in the embankment is green and quiet, and it seems to be very deep, and the scorching sun shines on the rippling river, like a silk inlaid with broken gold gently fluttering, shining and colorful; There are many people swimming in the river, dogs, floating on their backs, floating vertically, in different postures, and it is very lively.
Feng Tianyu took off his clothes, plunged into the water, splashed a crystal splash, swam two feet away, and then put his head out of the water, shook his wet head like a duck, wiped his eyes and nose with his hands, and then saw his feet together, waving his arms, and swimming towards the opposite shore like a dragon. Swimming to a place close to the shore, he stood up and beckoned to Lu Xiaobai with a smile: "Do you dare to swim?" โ
Lu Xiaobai said in his heart that you are underestimating me, right? So he made a horn barrel with both hands, put it on his mouth, and said loudly to Feng Tianyu: "If you don't dare, I'll come down now!" โ
"Then come down quickly!"
Lu Xiaobai began to undress.
Feng Tianyu saw that he stirred the sparkling river with his feet after taking off his clothes, and seemed to hesitate, so he persuaded: "Xiaobai, you stay there, don't come down!" โ
"Brother Tianyu, do you look down on me?!" Jump into the river.
In fact, Lu Xiaobai had never swam before, and he was inevitably a little scared when he looked at the bottomless river, but he was still sad when he remembered that Wu Hongyan humiliated him, so he jumped into the water with a tragic feeling of "just forget it if you are drowned".
However, he soon realized that he had just made a very stupid decision, because he didn't know how to water, his body sank straight down, and the ** of survival was instantly stimulated, he grabbed and danced in panic, trying to swim back to the shore, but he failed, and the whole person was quickly drowned in the water.
Seeing this, Feng Tianyu jumped into the water with a shout, and struggled to swim towards the place where Lu Xiaobai fell.
Just when Lu Xiaobai was in a life-and-death situation, a man quickly swam over, rescued him ashore, and performed manual first aid on him.
Lu Xiaobai spit out a few mouthfuls before he relieved himself, he still had palpitations when he remembered the drowning just now, and felt that death was a very terrifying thing, and he still had to cherish life.
At this time, Feng Tianyu had already swam over, looked at the wolf bรจi unbearable Lu Xiaobai and said, "I was scared to death just now!" I told you not to go into the water, but you just wouldn't listen! โ
Lu Xiaobai smiled wryly and did not speak.
The man who rescued Lu Xiaobai just now said to him in a tone of lesson: "I don't know how to swim, and I don't have an adult to accompany you, what can you do, don't die!" โ
Lu Xiaobai lowered his head in shame and remained silent.
The man looked at Feng Tianyu and said, "Boy, I recognize you, you are the son of Teacher Mei Zhifang." โ
Feng Tianyu couldn't help but be stunned, he couldn't remember who this man was after thinking for a long time, so he had to express his embarrassment: "I don't know you, how do you recognize me?" โ
"It doesn't matter - I'm going to send you home, and I'm going to warn your parents not to let their children play in the water! Did you know that a little boy drowned here last month was caused by a lack of awareness of the dangers in these deep waters? โ
Feng Tianyu panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Uncle, you still don't want to send it, we won't come next time!" If my mother had found out about my friend's drowning today, she would have taught me a hard lesson! โ
Lu Xiaobai was also worried about being reprimanded by Mei Zhifang, so he said: "Uncle, just let us go, we won't dare next time!" โ
The man's gaze suddenly became grim, and he said in an indisputable tone, "No! You children are very naughty, often don't know how to learn a lesson, and now you say that you won't come next time, but maybe it will come again in two days, I must let your parents know how strict the consequences of you going down to the river to play in the water are, let them take care of you! โ
Feng Tianyu and Lu Xiaobai wilted like frosted eggplants, and there was no way to go back with this man.
