Chapter 10 What kind of person is it?
Grandma Yu came over after pricking a hanging bottle, and cried with Lai Xinghua, both of whom shouted that they didn't want to live anymore.
Chun Tao was in the house and sat on the steps of the courtyard, and Xiao Miao came out of the house and sat beside her.
The child didn't speak except for the first few times he cried.
"Sister-in-law, what's in my brother's letter?"
His voice was a little hoarse, and Chun Tao touched his head, and he still had a great impression of such a sensible child.
"If you want to listen, I'll read it to you."
After Chun Tao finished reading, Xiao Miao didn't speak, just bit her lip, which reminded Chun Tao of the year she first went to the orphanage, which seemed to be so old.
Empathetically hugged him, "Your brother hopes that you will be strong and not let him down." ”
Although Xiao Miao is still young, he already knows how to part with life and death, his father died before he was born, and his grandfather died not long after, and he died lying in the grave and couldn't come out, so he could only burn some paper during the New Year's holidays.
The sea has surpassed his brother in his heart, and he feels like a father's dependence, and now he suddenly tells him that the sea is gone, and it is difficult for Xiao Miao to accept.
"He's not coming back, is he?"
"Hmm." Chun Tao knew it was cruel, but escaping was not a problem.
"He promised to make me a shell plane, but it's okay if you don't want it, just come back."
It's a pity that life and death are not exchanged for material energy, Chun Tao is a little distressed to see the child like this, and she also realized from such a state of being unaccompanied to relying on no one to rely on herself step by step to become so strong today.
Time and experience are a carving knife, carving traces of vicissitudes on everyone's body.
As if feeling Chun Tao's sadness, Xiao Miao stood up and ran back to the house, and came back after a while, still holding something in her hand.
"Sister-in-law, this was made for me by my eldest brother, I like it very much, give it to you!"
It is a small boat made of bullet shells, and the used shells are glued together, and the metallic texture is not very gorgeous, but the workmanship is very meticulous.
When Chun Tao was a writer before, he would do some handicrafts in his spare time, such as wool felt, ultra-light clay or something, from a professional point of view, this shell ship is really good.
Even the white glue between the cracks can be hidden, which shows how skillful the people who make this thing are.
Soldiers seem to use bullet casings to make things, and Chun Tao has also collected two, but men inevitably make it a little rough, and the white glue is exposed, but this one won't, it's completely a whole.
Yu Hai, should be a very careful man, you can feel it by looking at his beautiful and clean handiwork, and then thinking of the vigorous and powerful suicide note he wrote, Chun Tao became a little curious about him.
"Xiao Miao, why do you want to give it to me if you like it so much?" She could see from the child's reluctant eyes how precious he was.
There weren't too many toys in those days, so this one was pretty good.
"I like my sister-in-law, I know that my sister-in-law must be sad about this for you, don't be sad, my eldest brother makes me look like a man, I won't cry"
said that he didn't cry, but the way he bit his lip with red eyes made people feel distressed when he looked at it.
Chun Tao felt that her nose was a little sour, and aside from the marriage she strongly rejected, she liked this child very much.
is really sensible, he can do this at such a young age, and he can't tell that he is a child taught by Lai Xinghua.
"I like this boat too, but this is a gift from your brother, so you can keep it well, and when I want to see it, I'll look for you, okay?" How could such a well-behaved child bear to deprive him of his memories of his brother.
"Then this one is for you!" Xiao Miao untied a string of red ropes from her neck, and now children use this method to tie the door keys of the house, and the two keys are hung together with a pendant made of bullets.
Xiao Miao took off the bullet pendant and put it in Chun Tao's hand, smiling at her with tears in her eyes.
"Sister-in-law, the eldest brother said that this bullet almost killed him at the beginning, he made a pendant for me as a talisman, I will give this to you!"
Chun Tao held this precious gift, and welded a small ring on the back shell of the bullet, which was still finely workmanlike, without a little burr.
What kind of man is he?
"Xiao Miao, can you tell me about your brother?"
"My eldest brother is very powerful, he can fight and shoot, he is in charge of a lot of brothers, the eldest brother said that they are all his brothers, he said that a good man should protect his family and defend the country, he can only come back a few days a year, and when he comes back, he will take me to the beach to swim and fish, he likes the sea very much, and sometimes he will read poems that I don't understand"
It's the same thing that Chun Tao deduced from the clues.
A bloody soldier is very loving to his family, and he should be a careful person, who can be seen from the hand, and can recite poems and write a good hand, which proves that there is an elegant side in this human nature.
This kind of person should belong to the Confucian generals like Zhao Zilong in the Three Kingdoms in the past, who are lethal, but not reckless.
It's just that his appearance is lower than Zhao Zilong, Chun Tao remembered the unrecognizable face on the wall.
Xiao Miao, who was caught in the memories of her eldest brother, suddenly added, "My eldest brother is the best-looking man in the world, and he looks the best when he laughs!" ”
Can there be anything else to be seen on that face except for pimples? Doesn't it have anything to do with good-looking?
Chun Tao touched Xiao Miao, but did not refute.
Every child has a deified idol in his heart, so worshiped that he doesn't even distinguish between basic beauty and ugliness.
It was another day suppressed by crying, when Chun Tao was lying on the kang at night, he was holding a pendant made of bullets, and the length should have been shot with a sniper rifle.
She accepted Xiao Miao's gift, she liked this child, in return for taking other people's gifts, Chun Tao decided to make the house more beautiful, and when it was done, she could leave without any worries.
After turning the day, Lai Xinghua sat on the kang and shed tears as if he had lost his soul, Chun Tao boiled two eggs for Xiao Miao, and the child left the egg yolk for Chun Tao, he really liked Chun Tao.
"Chun Tao, what do you say our mother and mother should do next" Lai Xinghua will have no idea, and she will not look for thorns in her daughter-in-law, and her crying and swollen eyes look very pitiful.
But there is something hateful about the wretched.
"They must still come over to make trouble, or let's find a place to hide for a while Yu Wancai has hunted, and he has a shotgun in his hand."
"How many guns does he have? Don't move! This is your home, if you don't move, he will dare to shoot you? You hide out, and when you come back, the house is in someone else's hands! "How can this old lady just fight with her own people, and rise like this outside!
"It's good that the sea is here, the sea is there, none of them dare to bully our mothers, I'll drop one!"
They started howling again, and their eyes were like the faucets without valves.
"Don't howl, I have a way to guard the house for you, but you want to listen to me, how about listening or not?" Looking at Xiao Miao's bullet and Yu Hai's letter, she exerted the aura of the Virgin Mary and shrouded this superb mother-in-law!
