Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Burden on Your Shoulders
I thought that a word of sorry meant that everything was over, but I didn't want the girl to cry, just sat lightly on the side, and then put her hands on her knees, and the girl who put her chin on her knees looked at the front expressionlessly, and the girl who sighed deeply suddenly said:
"If only I hadn't known you all along!"
The girl, who lowered her head and then gently closed her eyes, seemed to be caught in some kind of memory, and said softly:
"When I first saw you, I just thought you were very ordinary, and not much handsome, and I didn't pay attention to people, at that time, I felt that you were nothing special, but I thought that your little aunt was a very powerful girl, she could make a toothbrush and support herself, so she liked to go to your house to play with you, and at that time I admired your little aunt more, but I didn't have any special feelings for you. Later, I heard that you taught Sister Xia to make those toothbrushes, so I felt that you were not a nerd who could only read, and you were quite capable. ”
Later, I happened to hear that Sister Xia would sing some strange tunes, although those songs were very strange, but they were also very good, so I pestered Sister Xia to sing to me, as expected, these songs were also taught by you, at that time, I felt that you were a strange person, so every day when looking for Sister Xia, my eyes always unconsciously looked at you. Only then did I realize that you are actually not so annoying. However, it's just not annoying! ”
is a very ordinary experience, for Zhang Jie, the little girl's mental journey is nothing, and there is not even much novelty, Zhang Jie doesn't feel that he is really good, the reason why he can let her look at herself more is that there is no object of longitudinal comparison.
At this time, if there is a young man, Zhang Jie can be sure that the girl will definitely take her eyes off herself, but there is no such peer who attracts her enough in reality, so she has been focusing on herself, as for the result, the sentence is not annoying, it can already explain everything.
"It's not that your talent attracts me, and I don't know what poetry and songs, but last year, your family told Sister Xia about her mother-in-law's family, and I felt very lonely at that time, Sister Xia was a person who could speak, if Sister Xia also got married, then I became lonely again, and when I was discouraged, I saw a little boy rush out, and the little boy with a blue face kicked the person who came to propose his relatives out of the yard in public, and then dropped the bride price in front of the family, you don't know, At that time, Sister Xia and I hid on the sidelines and watched, I could feel Sister Xia's whole body trembling, I knew she was happy, because she told me that she didn't like that family, but the marriage that the family fancied, Sister Xia didn't have the courage to object, and she didn't even dare to say a word. Therefore, when I saw a little boy arguing with a group of adults for her blushing and thick neck, and making a big fuss about smashing dishes and bowls, Sister Xia told me that when the little kid grows up, he must be a wishful husband! ”
"I don't know how the kid persuaded a big family, I also begged for the little boy for a few days for a few days, hoping that God would bless the little boy from being beaten by his family, but when I plucked up the courage to go to Sister Zhao Xia, I found that the little boy was still holding the book there and shaking his head, as if nothing had happened to the family, and Sister Xia's marriage was canceled like this. You don't know, I heard Sister Xia say how shocked the little boy was when she asked her to marry at the age of eighteen, and if she dared to fall in love before the age of eighteen, she would break her legs. ”
The circles under her eyes suddenly turned red, and the girl with a somewhat nasal voice continued to whisper:
"My sister married a wealthy family in the next county at the age of twelve, and was pregnant at the age of thirteen, and then the child could not be born, and the adults and children were not saved, and the mother said that it was my sister's life, and the people in the village said that my sister was destined, and I thought so at first, but then I heard that girls are prone to accidents when they give birth to children too early, what body has not developed well, what psychological is not prepared, in short, a lot of messy reasons, at that time I knew that the reason why my sister has a short life is only because she is too young to have children, If I let my sister grow up for two years, maybe my sister will be fine, and it was at that time that I suddenly felt that many things were different from what adults said. ”
"By that little boy's side, I know a lot of things that I didn't know before, and I also understand a lot of messy truths, which are contradicted by the world, but I think the little boy is right, and Sister Xia also thinks so, so Sister Xia said, she will listen to the little boy, the little boy let her get married at the age of eighteen, then she will be eighteen years old, anyway, there is a little boy to protect her, no one dares to do anything to her, yes, no one dares to do anything to Sister Xia, but no one protects me, so, next year at the latest, I'm going to marry like my sister, I don't have the ability to make a big fuss with a little boy, nor do I have the means to support myself like Sister Xia, and I don't have any big opinions, so, doomed, I can only go to the same ending as my sister, yesterday I mustered up the courage to beg my mother for a long time, and even went on a hunger strike for three days before letting my mother take me to the little boy's house, and when I used the last bit of strength to hand over the little handkerchief to others, I was returned before I walked out of the door. ”
"So, at this time, I will think, if only I didn't know that little boy, so that I can marry myself with peace of mind, everything is arranged by the family, and don't think about any resistance, think about fate, just like my sister, just accept fate!"
Ling Yue got married, it was this year, and when Zhang Jie participated in the scientific examination, he also married in the next county, because he was not there, so he didn't even say goodbye in the end.
When he came back, Zhang Jie was even thinking that it might be better not to say goodbye, otherwise he would definitely feel uncomfortable watching the little girl who had always pestered him to tell stories before going away.
Hearing the words of the girl next to him, Zhang Jie suddenly thought of one thing, even the girls who don't talk to him much on weekdays have been affected by themselves, so Ling Yue, who has been with him for a longer time, has not been affected by himself?
People who have been with themselves for a long time will always unconsciously want to resist, Zhao Shuang is like this, before knowing herself, no matter how eccentric she is, she never thought about changing her fate, when the greenhouse came out, she had this idea, and unswervingly did so, Zhao Ping A girl can go on a hunger strike for three days and force her family to come to the door, although the strength of the resistance is very small, but this girl also tried in her own way.
That Ling Yuena, the girl who has known her for six years, did she resist anything when she got married?
It's a pity that because of the scientific research, I don't know anything as a matter of course.
Originally, I thought that early marriage and early childbearing abound in this world, and I am not the emperor, so I don't have the power to issue a decree prohibiting early marriage, so I can ignore everything that happens around me with peace of mind.
But now, when I saw the empty eyes of the girl next to me, I suddenly felt that I couldn't see it, and I didn't have the ability to help, so forget it, and these happened around me, because of my appearance and affected other people's lives, do you still have to stand by?
Suddenly, I felt a little heavier on my shoulders, a very strange feeling, I didn't have this feeling before, I looked at my shoulders, it was empty, and there was nothing as before, but I felt that my shoulders were a lot heavier than before, thinking it was an illusion, but when Zhang Jie tried to stand up, the heaviness did not weaken in the slightest.
I hate this feeling of pressing things on my shoulders, this heaviness makes me no longer able to jump like before, and my body is no longer as light and flexible as before, no one likes to always press things on my shoulders, but this time, no matter how Zhang Jie jumps up and down, he just can't get rid of the burden on his shoulders.
In the end, he could only stop weakly, touched his shoulder, and since he couldn't take it off, he felt that he couldn't be bent over by this weight, raised his head and chest, and his shoulders were straight.
Now that the burden has been lifted, it can only move forward more desperately.
