Chapter 1 There are no miracles in this world
Lixia, Lixia......
In a trance, his father's voice came from afar, familiar and a little unfamiliar.
Since her father's death, Li Xia has never heard her father's voice again, not even in her dreams, which is probably one of her lifelong obsessions.
Now that she's dying, has her father come to pick her up?
"Dad!" Li Xia opened her eyes suddenly, and then froze.
The room was empty, full of cicadas, and the midsummer sun shone through the window, making the room bright, and there was a sense of distortion when looking at everything.
It turned out to be a dream.
Li Xia sat up with his dizzy head, halfway through his sitting, the whole person froze there and couldn't move, the moment he was hit by the car, the numbness caused by the instantaneous weightlessness of the body seemed to be still there, and the pain that swept up the body before closing his eyes also remembered clearly,
How could she dream, how could she still dream!
Quietly pinched his arm, it hurt.
Li Xia was a little flustered, she subconsciously reached out to touch the water cup on the bedside table, but only touched it empty.
There was no bedside table next to the bed, just a shabby chair for clothes, with patched trousers on top.
On the desk by the window were stacks of books, and the sun shone through the window on the table.
Opposite the bed was a chest of drawers, and the large mirror on the middle door was broken, except for the lower half of the painted red peony flower still embedded in the door, and a big red plastic comb was stuck in the crack of the cabinet.
This is, her home?
Before going to Beijing, Li Xia went back to her hometown, but the roof of the family's house had collapsed, the walls were cracked, and the yard was overgrown with weeds and shrubs.
But the room in front of me was no different from what I remembered, and even looked a little new.
How can it be!
Li Xia only felt that everything in front of her was strange and unacceptable, but when she saw the familiar scene, she still couldn't help but feel that the memories came flooding up.
When she was eleven years old, the mirror was broken during a fight with her younger brother Li Nan, and the debris cut her arm, Li Nan was beaten and punished for kneeling for a long time......
Thinking of this, Li Xia's tears came out all of a sudden, and he subconsciously touched his arm, the scar was still there, but Li Nan was long gone.
To this day, Li Xia has never been able to accept the fact that Li Nan died early as a teenager.
Li Xia looked at herself in tears in the mirror in a daze, the whole person went from dazed to shocked, and couldn't help but reach out and twist herself again, after feeling the pain exactly, the shock turned into panic and disbelief.
At the same time, a faint hope arises in my heart.
If you really turn back the clock, then ......
Li Xia suddenly jumped out of bed and ran downstairs like crazy, because she was so excited that she forgot to put on her shoes.
The hall house is the most common appearance in the countryside, with a shrine hanging on the north wall, and under the shrine is an old table of eight immortals, and the chairs are neatly buckled upside down on one side of the wall.
At the shrine, her father and grandparents look lovingly at her from the photo.
Li Xia was stunned for a long time, raised her hand to cover her face, and tears poured out from her fingers.
There are no miracles in this world.
Although time has gone back, it has not returned to the time when Li Xia wanted to go back the most, if she couldn't go back to when her father was alive, why let her life start all over again.
Is it because she was not miserable enough in her previous life, and she wants to experience it again, her brother died unexpectedly, and her younger sister was abducted and disappeared, and she couldn't find the pain again?
……
"Sister!" Li Yang helped Li Nan carry the basket with a sigh, and when he raised his eyes and saw Li Xia crying to the ground in the hall, he was immediately frightened.
By the time Li Nan, who was also stunned, came back to his senses, Li Yang had already pounced and hugged Li Xia and cried.
Li Nan's eye sockets were sore, but he just twisted his head fiercely, dragged the back basket to the stove house, the pigs at home were already hungry and howled, he had to hurry up to work.
The neighbor who came back from the field next to him passed by Li's house, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh, and when he got home, he chatted with his wife.
How prosperous the Li family used to be, Li's father is a well-known capable person in ten miles and eight townships, and his character is also very good, his wife is virtuous and wise, who in the village is not envious?
As a result, good people say that they are gone.
"What kind of wife is virtuous, a good man has no good wife, when Li Shengping can make money, the old lady of the Li family is also there, the old lady is quick with her hands and feet, what is Yang Wangxiang going to do, just wait for food, just say it with a mouth, look at it now, as soon as Li Shengping died, she immediately changed her marriage." The woman in charge snorted coldly and couldn't help but slam the rag on the table.
"I've never seen such a ruthless mother-in-law!"
I heard that now that Yang Wangxiang is pregnant again, it will be time to give birth in a few months.
……
After crying, Li Xia's mood did stabilize a lot.
God is still not thin on her, at least, at this time, her younger brothers and sisters are still there, and she still has the opportunity to make up for the mistakes of her previous life, and fulfill the responsibilities of her sister that she has not fulfilled in her previous life.
The rebirth was too unbelievable, and Li Xia didn't want to scare Li Nan and Li Yang, so he excused himself to still be dizzy, and went back to the upstairs room to sort out his thoughts.
It's '87 and summer vacation.
There are still two months to go before his father dies and it will be a year since his death, if I am not mistaken, the child in Yang Wangxiang's belly has been more than six months, and it will not be long before it will be born.
At the same time, in less than ten days, school will open.
The next semester starts, the third year of Lixia junior high school, the sixth grade of Li Nan, and the fourth grade of Li Yang, but the tuition fee has not been settled.
As an older sister, she was supposed to share the heavy work of the family, but the reason why she was lying in bed was that the day before yesterday she took the report card to Yang Wangxiang to ask for tuition and miscellaneous fees, but in the end she was scolded by Yang Wangxiang's current mother-in-law for asking for food, and poured a basin of cold water and drove it out.
I didn't want the money to arrive, but when I got home, I had a high fever.
This time, Li Xia was very sick, and he didn't get better after taking medicine, and he didn't get better until the start of school, and he finally recovered, and finally fell into the problem of cold and cough.
Thinking of this, Li Xia's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of an electric drill, and he pushed open the window and looked over, it was the Zhou family building a house behind him.
Zhou Qiren of the Zhou family and Li's father are good friends who grew up bare-assed, and a few years ago, Li's father worked outside to earn some money, and went home to build this two-story building, which is the only one in the village.
Zhou Qiren also wanted to make money to build a house, so he followed Li's father to work outside the next year, but a year later, when they came back, it was Zhou Qiren who brought back Li's father's ashes.
Now the building of the Zhou family has been built, but the people who live there are not Zhou Qiren, but Zhou Qiren's younger brother, Zhou Qiyi's family.
Before dying in his previous life, the person Li Xia wanted to see was Zhou Qiren.
"Xia Xia." Someone from the Zhou family was shouting Li Xia, and Li Xia took a closer look and saw Zhou Duochun.
Zhou Duochun smiled and waved at Li Xia, "Xia Xia, are you cured of your cold?" ”
Li Xia's heart shrank suddenly, and she just glanced at Zhou Duochun fixedly, then quickly closed the window and closed the curtain.
When Li Nan and Li Yang appeared in front of him vividly, Li Xia only had gratitude in his heart, but when he saw Zhou Duochun, Li Xia only felt creepy, and only the tragic situation when Zhou Duochun was picked up from the river in his mind.
Zhou Duochun is the river that was cast after the start of school this year.
But she is Zhou Qiren's daughter and does not deserve sympathy!
