3.9 Desire, Break Free
Home is a haven for the soul.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Jiuying found himself in a gray world, full but not around. It feels solid under your feet, but it looks like a gray mist, and there is also gray fog all around and on your head. Gravity seemed to be absent, and for a moment, Jiu Ying couldn't even tell whether he was standing, lying, or standing upside down.
This is the fog of dreams.
Jiu Ying tried to take a step forward, feeling dizzy in front of him, as if the sky and the earth were constantly rotating upside down. Jiuying had to stop and relieve himself.
Every step in the next step, Jiuying walked very hard. Jiu Ying couldn't think of any other way, so he could only continue to move forward.
Every time the world spins, Jiu Ying will feel his heart be clenched violently, and his stomach will churn endlessly. Even if Jiu Ying knew that it was in a dream, he couldn't hypnotize himself to ignore this feeling.
I don't know how long I walked, but the scene in front of Jiu Ying's eyes changed abruptly.
A six-story residential building appeared in front of her, and a figure stood in front of her with his back to her. Jiuying looked at it and saw that it was full, but it was full of six-year-olds.
Jiu Ying looked down at himself and found that he had also shrunk. Jiu Ying wore a pink princess dress, and the fluffy gauze was stacked on top of each other, covering her knees all the time. The dress was dotted with roses made of red ribbons the size of fingernails.
Jiu Ying looked around and found himself standing by a flower bed, with a residential building behind it. The surrounding fog has vanished.
Little Man Man looked back, and she was also wearing a dress that was the same as her touch.
"Sister!" ran over and threw himself into the arms of Jiuying.
Jiu Ying's mind was confused for a while, and she felt as if she had forgotten something.
"Sister, sister!" Man Man shook Jiu Ying's arm and woke her up from her contemplation, "Why don't you ignore me!" ”
"Huh?" Jiuying's reaction was half a beat slower.
"Nine babies, full, eat!" A gentle female voice came. Jiuying followed the prestige, and a head poked out from a balcony on the fifth floor.
"Got it, Mom! Let's go up! As he spoke, he took Jiuying's hand and walked towards the unit door.
"Wait!" Jiuying vaguely felt that something was wrong, but involuntarily took a step and entered the door with Manman.
Although Manman went upstairs quickly, his steps were very light and he didn't make any sound. Jiu Ying followed behind and frowned, why did the scene in front of him feel so familiar? As if it happened? But didn't you just come back from school?
"Sister!" Man Man shouted in Jiuying's ear, "Why do you always ignore me today!" ”
It turned out that before they knew it, they had gone up to the fifth floor.
The two anti-theft doors stand side by side, and the couplets and blessing characters on the door come into view, the same content, the same paste. Except for the doorknobs, which are opposite, everything else is exactly the same. The couplets and blessing characters have been hanging for half a year, and they are slightly faded.
Heaven and earth are harmonious and prosperous, and people are blessed with peace and happiness. The seasons are safe.
Jiuying couldn't help but read aloud.
"Wow!" Full exclaimed, "Sister, you actually remember!" It's amazing! I haven't recognized it yet! ”
The door on the right opened, and it was a beautiful woman with short hair, Zhang Ying. "Manman, why are you yelling in the hallway again, come in."
Man stuck out his tongue and obediently entered the door to change his shoes.
The Nine Babies and the Wandering Spirit floated into the door.
A pair of warm hands attached to her forehead, "What's wrong with the nine baby babies today?" Is it uncomfortable? Why is your face so ugly? ”
As soon as Jiuying looked up, she saw Zhang Ying's worried face, and her eyes turned red all of a sudden.
"Oops! Don't cry! Zhang Ying picked her up, turned around and shouted in the direction of the kitchen, "Sister, come quickly!" ”
Jiuying raised his head sharply and looked over with expectant eyes.
The door opened, and a long-haired woman stepped out. She looks very handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and acts like a gust of wind. She wears a bell tied to a red string on her left wrist.
Jiu Ying lowered his head and looked at his left wrist. The same texture of the bell, the same braided red string. The difference is only in the number, there are only four bells on the woman's bracelet.
"What's wrong with the Nine Babies?" The woman asked as she approached quickly.
Jiu Ying looked at her stunned, tears welling up from her eyes. "Mom!"
"Hey! What's going on? "The person who came was Qian Luan, the mother of Jiuying. She took Jiuying from Zhang Ying's hand and hugged it.
As he spoke, two men came out of the back room. Jiuying choked up, "Dad! ”
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing why Jiu Ying suddenly started crying. Four adults and one child all gathered around Jiuying to ask.
"I'm fine! I just miss you guys! Jiuying said while crying.
"This kid!" Everyone shook their heads and laughed dotingly. Qian Luan hugged Jiuying and sat on the sofa.
Qian Luan slowly stroked it from top to bottom along Jiuying's back. As long as Jiuying cried when he was a child, Qian Luan was appeased like this.
Feeling the gentle stroke on his back and smelling his mother's good smell, Jiuying's eyes slowly couldn't open.
A slice of dark sweetness.
Jiu Ying opened his eyes again and found that it was pitch black all around. Jiu Ying could feel the softness under him, and he could smell the fragrance of the sun.
Just then, the door opened, and the smell of rice wafted in. The light poured into the room through the crack in the open door, soft and warm.
"Awake? Get up and eat! "It's Qian Luan.
"Good!" Jiuying's stomach screamed in response to the situation. She answered, got up and went into the living room.
Jiu Ying had just woken up and came out of the dark bedroom again, and the light outside made her squint.
The dining table in the living room is already ready. For as long as I can remember, Jiuying and Manman have been living together. Later, they moved to the current upstairs, and the two families lived separately, but the old habit continued, and dinner must be eaten together.
Zhou Tianshi and Qian Jin were already sitting at the table, holding a small wine cup and drinking each other. Man Man stood next to him, and from time to time he picked up a piece of meat with his hands and quickly put it in his mouth. The kitchen door opened, and Zhang Ying came out with two dishes and placed them on the table.
"It's time to eat!"
Everyone sat down one after another, but Jiuying stood still and did not move.
"Don't be stunned! Come and eat! Zhang Ying beckoned.
"I'm sorry." Jiuying's tears couldn't be stopped again, "I love you, but I'm sorry. ”
"Let's go! I know it's all fake, but I'm so happy. Jiuying firmly touched a handful of tears.
"This kid, you're sleeping!" Everyone looked at Jiu Ying in surprise.
Man Man stepped forward and shook Jiuying's hand.
"I can't dwell on the past, you must want me to live well, right?" Jiu Ying looked at Zhou Tianshi and Qian Luan deeply, "
Manman is still waiting for me. I'm sorry I can't stay. ”
"Sister, what are you talking about? Am I not right here? Man Man raised his little face and asked puzzled.
Jiuying touched her head, "It's so cute." ”
"I can't stay." As if convincing himself, Jiu Ying repeated in a firm tone, "I can't stay." ”
As soon as her words fell, the surrounding scene gradually disappeared, and only people were still looking at Jiu Ying eagerly.
"Stay! Isn't that what you want? ”
"Sister, don't you want me?"
"Mom and Dad are here, don't worry about the nine baby babies."
Everyone kept persuading around Jiuying. Jiu Ying looked at his parents' faces a little greedily, wanting to engrave this scene deeply in his mind.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I have long understood that this qiē is fake, but I still don't want to believe it. Forgive my greed, I just want to stay a little longer! Good bye! Jiuying's mouth kept apologizing, his voice getting lower and lower, and his speed of speech became faster and faster. Her head was shaking, and tears were streaming down her face. But the hand was still raised firmly, "Give it to me, break!" ”
The lingering sound gradually disappeared, the figures of the relatives gradually dimmed, and the surroundings became chaotic again.
