Chapter 17 Same car

On the way home. We sat side by side in the carriage and listened to the sound of the wheels rolling across the earth.

I bowed my head and was silent. You watch my pearl earrings dangling around my ears.

You touched me with your arm. I look up at you. You say, "I'm still sad." It's almost home. ”

I said, "Thank you for being with me today." ”

You say, "Yes." Since I was a child, I have always wanted to come here to pay tribute to Uncle Chen. If I have to become a soldier, I hope I can be as brave and fearless as Uncle Chen. ”

We look into each other's eyes and see ourselves in each other's pupils.

You say, "Qin'er, I'll be home in a while, do me a favor, okay?" ”

I said, "What do you need me to do?" ”

You say, "You go and see the big brother on my behalf, okay?" ”

I said, "He's not sick." He didn't want to go with us. ”

You say, "I know." He's not targeting you and Uncle Chen. Don't be surprised. He just didn't want to be with me. He didn't want to go to my mother's grave either. He hated me and he hated my mother. ”

I said, "Then you're still so worried about him?" ”

You say, "We are brothers." ”

I said, "Well, let's go see him together." ”

You shake your head. You say, "He won't want to see me." He doesn't want to see me go with you. You say, "Convey my greetings." If you go to see him alone, he will feel better. ”

I'm looking at you. I bit my lip. I said, "Okay. ”

You read through my mind, and you laugh a little and say, "Don't be afraid. With me at home, he wouldn't dare. ”

We were silent for a while.

The sound of horses' hooves became crisp. The carriage had already driven into the bluestone streets of Zhuang Town.

I said, "Brother, don't be sad either. ”

Your eyebrows move slightly. You say, "What? ”

I said, "It's a bad feeling to be hated by your own brothers, to be hated by your family in your own home. "I'm looking at you. I said, "Although you don't say anything, I understand everything." ”

You look at me. You turn your face to look out the window.

You say, "Here we are." ”
