"What do you mean?" We're all confused.

"Mom, what are you talking about? Don't do that, okay? Let's go home! An An flattened her mouth, tears in her eyes, as if she was stimulated a little more, and the tears would burst out.

"Leave me alone!" An An's mother pulled her hair fiercely, "What kind of sin did I create to give birth to a daughter like you!" Aren't you hurting me enough?! After so many years, how can you have so many means to torture me for so many years?!! ”

My brother and I both looked back at An An. An An's expression remained unchanged: "Mom, what are you talking about...... Mom, I don't understand, Mom, you're infected with the virus, glutinous rice, there's medicine there, I beg you to take the medicine, okay? …… Mom, if you take the medicine, we'll go to Grandma, and then we'll go home, and go home like nothing happened, okay? An An said as she spoke, big tears began to fall, and the appearance of whimpering and sobbing made people feel very distressed to watch.

"Virus? Grandmother? Family? Are you using this story to deceive people this time? It's funny that someone is tricked by you every time...... Tell me where you came from. Where did we come from? The home has already been sold by you!! Who is that name, surnamed Liang, you sold it to him two years ago and didn't even say a word to me!! What a robber and a liar!! took the money and went to college, have you ever thought about my feelings?? When I woke up, I didn't even have a home!! was driven out into the street!! Are you embarrassed to mention home to me now?? His mother seemed to be a little crazy and screamed hysterically.

"Mom, what are you talking about? We have a home, if you take your medicine well, I'll take you home, okay? Mom, are you sick and hallucinating? An An seemed to be a little afraid of such a mother, and her body gradually stepped back, leaning against the wall of the car.

"I'm hallucinating? You don't think you have enough hallucinations, do you?! Every day I think I'm a princess, and I tell you that your mother is a garbage picker!! We're not noble!! Don't fantasize about being a rich lady every day, who doesn't know that you will cheat money to buy you things since you were a child. What did I do to raise you...... I won't talk about you. When you grow up, you actually deceived your mother?!! Not only was the house sold, but I was also in debt everywhere, and I didn't live anymore!! You just hope that I will die soon, and you will be happy, right!! An An's mother beat her chest and feet, and her green tendons roared out, her voice was originally rough and ugly, but now it is even more terrible.

"Mom...... What did you say...... Mom, what's wrong with you, you've changed back, Mom...... Mom, don't ...... like this" An An looked at such a mother in a daze, trembling and curled up her limbs, hugged them together, and buried her face in her knees, as if she didn't want to see this scene again, it was in great pain.

Who is telling the truth?? My brother and I look at me, I look at you, and we don't know what to do for a while. I thought about it for a while, plucked up the courage to ask An An, "Didn't you say that my mother was infected with the virus?" Why does it look like a different person? This kind of situation is more like our "mom and dad" type.

"You don't believe me?!!" An An raised her head suddenly, her eyes widened as if she was in disbelief, her eyes full of hurt. I hurriedly denied: "No, no, I just wanted to ask if you have given her any other medicine?" ”

"Nope." She buried her face back in her knees again, looking overly sad and confused.

What should I do now? I looked at An An's mother who was still crying and scolding outside the car, and then at An An, who seemed to want to escape everything, neither did she leave nor stay. I couldn't help but look at my brother for help.

My brother had been staring out the window since he had just been looking, not knowing what he was looking at. After a long time, he turned back to An An and said, "Sister An An, otherwise let's go to your grandmother first." Your mother won't want to go with us right now, anyway. ”

"What are you talking about? What should I do if I leave my mom here? An An really looked up, with an angry face.

The younger brother blinked simply: "Don't you still love your mother very much?" So why don't you explain it to her? I don't think she's like a virus now, she looks like she's simply overdone, and she should be able to explain it clearly. "It's true that the virus has already done something inhuman, similar to breaking your left hand with your right hand to smash glass and so on.

"She's got the virus." An An insisted and looked at her mother timidly. “…… And I'm scared of her now. ”

"How did you know she had the virus?" The younger brother looked curious.

"On that day, when we arrived in D City, she suddenly did something wrong, she was very fierce to me, and scared my grandmother away." An An covered her face with her hands, her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she didn't want to recall the scene of that day, "I didn't dare to run, it was so chaotic at that time, I was afraid that my mother would be arrested if I ran away." I coaxed her home, tricked her into comforting her, and locked her in the room to prevent her from coming out. ”

"So that 'home' is your grandmother's house, right?" The younger brother tilted his head and asked, "Why did you choose to come to Grandma's house at such a special time?" "After all, the first outbreak of the virus in China was in City D, and it is impossible for An An and An An's mother not to know.

"I ...... We were worried about my grandmother, who was too old to take a long transport ride to come to City B with us. But we couldn't bear to leave her alone, so we came. An An still kept her head down, and her hands did not leave her face. I couldn't make out her expression.

"Then can you tell me why I put the medicine on my grandmother?" The younger brother began to play the cartoon U-shaped pillow on the co-pilot for a while, "Obviously such a frail grandmother, in such an emergency, aren't you afraid that the precious medicine will be snatched away?" ”

"That'...... That's because I care about my grandmother! If there is one of the three of us who needs medicine the most, it must be grandma. In case she gets separated, the medicine is on her, at least it will ensure that she is okay. An An put down his hands and looked at his brother steadily, the expression on his face was as convincing as ever, but this trick seemed to be useless to his younger brother.

"Oh? Do you really care so much about your grandmother? Do you really think that such a weak old man can survive in this diseased city with only a bottle of medicine? The younger brother didn't look at him, one hand delicately traced the English letters embroidered on the U-shaped pillow, "You contacted my sister twice, and it seems that you didn't mention 'go find my grandmother', right?" You have such a weak affection for your grandmother, and you would support you to come to such a dangerous city? ”

"I ...... I'm here with my mom, what do you mean?! An An's face had changed a little.

"So you don't care about your grandmother at all." The younger brother finally looked at her, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, "Or ...... Like your mother said, is there really such a thing as a grandmother? You are so short of money, your medicine has actually been sold by you a long time ago, right? ”

"What did you say?!" An An's eyes widened in disbelief, she glared at my brother fiercely, and turned her head to me again: "Yu Nuo, I really misjudged you, if you don't want to help me, you just say that you can't borrow your brother to scold me!" ”

"It's not about my sister," the younger brother opened his mouth before I tried to defend myself, "I can see that you are lying, because your mother has been crying outside since just now, and you don't even look at her after crying for so long." I've never heard that people who have that virus can still have feelings and cry. On the contrary, you pretended to be in pain for so long, but you still didn't open the door to face your mother, but kept huddled in the car, as if you and your mother were people from different worlds. That's right, just like your fantasies. If it were me, or my sister, no matter what had become of our mother, we would have wanted to be by her side, to stand by her, to hope that she was okay, that she would come back. Instead of cowering in another space and doing nothing. ”

"Besides, if I just said a few words to you, you will immediately blame my sister. It seems that 'feelings' are really not very important to you. My sister knows that you don't have much money, and the university has been helping you swipe your card and invite you to dinner, do you think I don't know? And you, just like that, repay her. Sister, you're really blind. "My brother said it to me at the end. With that, he turned back to the driver's seat and never looked back.

An An's whole body trembled, but he didn't refute it again. She bit her lower lip tightly, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and after sitting there with a pale face for a few minutes, she slammed the car door and left.

Her mother also left at some unknown point. Suddenly there was silence and darkness in the streets, and only us and the cold, dark carriages.
