Chapter 49: He's All She's Have
Lin Qingqing's eyes gradually emptied, and the painful and desperate feelings in her eyes slowly revealed, and she said a little choked: "My dislike for my brother has continued until June 7th five years ago, and I will not forget this day." On this day, my parents died of a fire, and I felt that the sky was about to fall, and crying became my only instinct. I don't remember much about that time, but the gray color made me subconsciously forget every second of that time. ”
Lin Qingqing's eyes were red, no matter when she thought about it, she would be overwhelmed by the torrent of sadness, and it would take a lot of time to build a new defense.
Zhou Qinyi approached her and hugged the poor little girl, she knew the pain of losing her loved ones and felt the same way. So she knows more clearly that for a child who has lost her parents, what she needs is not verbal comfort, but a hug that can make her feel warm.
"One thing changed my opinion about my brother at that time." Lin Qingqing leaned on Zhou Qinyi quietly, and her words were soft.
"My brother cried, my brother cried that day, I never thought that my brother with a withdrawn personality and a strong personality would cry. For the first time, I identified with the word brother, and he became my only relative in this world. ”
Zhou Qinyi found that as long as she talked about her brother, there was an almost pious light in the eyes of this little girl. The feeling of relying on trust to the extreme.
"I've never been able to guess my brother's, I don't know, what kind of thinking pattern you are when you're a year older than me, just like your behavior after that, as always, I have to be surprised and sigh." Lin Qingqing sighed, those years were undoubtedly tragic, his parents died, and only his young siblings were left to stay in the empty house......
"The nanny and the cook have resigned after the death of their parents, not because they can't afford to pay their salaries, but because they can't stand the short gossip of those parents. Where to work is not a part-time job, if it is great, change it. They probably have this mentality and don't think about whether the two teenage children can take care of themselves. Lin Qingqing recounted sadness, but her tone seemed to be talking about trivial things in life, maybe for her, as long as she was with her brother, what did the other qiē care about.
But even if it's a request to be with my brother, there are people who want to deprive it.
"Lin Tianze's uncle, Lin Xuanwu, this tough and even domineering man, he adopted his brother and wanted to send me back to the orphanage, he said that he was not obliged to raise a little girl who had nothing to do with him." Lin Qingqing's eyes were full of pain, maybe for her young, this is the most unacceptable, not to be attached to this beautiful life, but to be unable to accept leaving her only relative.
"This is not a reason, just an excuse!" Lin Qingqing's expression was a little remorseful, she was far from being as ignorant as usual, she actually understood a lot, but in front of her brother, she was used to being weak and spoiled, she was always a sister who needed to be protected.
"Refusing to raise me is just a bargaining chip for Lin Xuanwu and his brother to negotiate. That man, when the family was at its weakest, came and stabbed us, and he tried to steal our family's property! ”
"That year, my brother was twelve years old, and a twelve-year-old boy didn't know much, he didn't even know what custody was, and he didn't know how to protect his property, but from the back of him standing unswervingly in front of me, I knew that he had learned to cherish, to persevere, and to fight!" Lin Qingqing said, tears kept flowing down, just like her when she was young, the tears flowed out, and she only knew how to follow closely behind her brother, never leaving an inch.
"After all, the twelve-year-old brother is still too weak, and he can't compare to his uncle, all he can do is persevere! Uncle finally compromised, only strategically, and he stole 32% of the property, so he won. My brother also compromised, and it was a strategic one, and he won the right to let me and her continue to live together.
I don't know if he won like this, but my brother told me that he also won, and that he can one day regain the lost property, and if he loses you, he will never get it back.
I didn't know what it meant, I just wanted to hug him tightly.
After that, my brother was like a different person, and he didn't do those headaches, and he began to like to think quietly and read books, and I was even used to being in the study all weekends; My brother even learned to cook. Just to take care of my ignorant sister, you should learn a ...... that he shouldn't have learned at his age," Lin Qingqing said, bursting into tears.
"At that time, he was not only my brother, but also my father, taking care of me."
"And what really blew me away and I will never forget for the rest of my life was that incident. I don't remember much of why, but in the face of something shocking enough, the other details will undoubtedly be diluted to the point of no mark, but there is a picture engraved in the depths of my heart.
Under the dark clouds turned into a gray and desperate sky, in the moss-covered green mottled bluestone road, the boy named Lin Tianze put his bloody hand on my thin shoulder.
He said, Qingqing, you remember, in this world, only I can bully you.
The elder brother was so proud that he threw his head up. I looked at his scars and burst into tears.
That year, he was fourteen and I was thirteen. ”
Lin Qingqing, she never told anyone about this, but she was really afraid that she would lose her only relative. Zhou Qinyi's arrival made him clearly realize that this brother was never her alone.
"The reason why I remember all these qiē is because I think about it every night, I'm afraid that I'll forget it, I'm afraid I'll forget that I used to have a happy home, and I'm afraid I'll forget that I used to be a person with a father and mother." Lin Qingqing raised her head from Lin Tianze's arms, tears blurred her face, but her eyes were firmer than ever.
"So, sister," Lin Qingqing's moist eyes looked at Zhou Qinyi, and the unwavering belief in it was shocking, "So, no matter what, don't let my brother leave me, he is already all I have, from that day five years ago." ”
Zhou Qinyi did not explain that she had nothing to do with Lin Tianze, he knew that what this little girl needed was not this, but commitment and affirmation.
Zhou Qinyi nodded, and finally knew in her heart that Lin Qingqing was suddenly so close to her, not because of her own meal and a hug, but because, for the sake of her brother, she was willing to compromise without a bottom line.
Just like my brother back then!
