Chapter 1: Those who want to escape can't escape after all

Next Chapter

The New Year's Day had just begun, and there was another sound of knocking on the table and smashing cups outside the door, which still could not hide the accusations and curses between the two of them.

Mom's voice is always very loud, and scolding people can be heard even in the previous unit. I can't figure out why the ugliness of the family always has to be publicized like this, scolding each other so loudly, and there is a light on the face when you go out? Anyway, I didn't, when I was a child, every time someone asked me if my parents were fighting again, I answered that I didn't know.

However, there were still rumors that spread to the school, and sometimes I could hear my classmates talking about it, and even if I walked by with my head down and pretended that nothing had happened, the eyes of the people around me still pierced my back like thorns.

"You don't have a face, I want a face, people like you should be embarrassed to go out!" Mom's loud voice pierced my door as usual.

I quickened my packing and casually checked the backpack and trailer, I just wanted to get out of the environment as quickly as possible. Although it is the second day of New Year's Day, I can't sit still at home and hurry back to school.

When I opened the door, I saw my dad squatting in the living room hallway, and he looked up as if he had seen a savior, and said urgently, "Okay? I'll take you to the station. With that, he stood up and walked towards the door.

My mother took a sip of water, and was still muttering: "If you marry and die, you don't regret taking medicine, and you can't get along with your family." When her father passed by her, she didn't forget to take a hard look.

At the same time, I also saw my father's back molars clenched tightly.

I sighed softly, and though I knew that my persuasion would not do anything at all, I was afraid that my dad's taut string would break, and that if he swung his fist, he would have to scuffle together. couldn't help but persuade: "Forget it, don't argue." ”

I went out with my luggage, and my things were very light, because it was my senior year, and I was returning to school halfway, so I didn't need to bring much back to school. My parents followed me out, and the muttering never stopped.

Dad walked ahead, went down the stairs and straightened his collar, straightened his back, and continued to walk. I carried a school bag on my back and dragged an almost empty suitcase to the brisk pace forward. The mother was afraid that the fruit would be damaged in the schoolbag, so she carried a bag of washed cherry tomatoes and followed behind.

The station is very close, and it takes about 20 minutes to walk, but at this point I felt that the distance was very long, and I felt that it was too slow. Because this is a short road, the nagging and muttering still haven't stopped.

When I arrived at the station and stayed up until I got on the train, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Put away your luggage, sit on the lower bunk and wave goodbye to your parents outside the window.

The sun shines through the glass window, and a tall and thin person stands in front of the window, clearly backlit, but very conspicuous. I avoided his position and leaned out like my parents and waved, but although my parents faced me, they were still arguing with themselves.

Maybe it was my frequent wave of my hand, they finally turned their eyes to me, raised their hands to say goodbye to me, my mother approached the window, and asked me to quickly occupy a place under the lower bunk, but so loudly let me occupy the place, fingers poked at the window, made me feel a little uncomfortable, so I nodded wildly and signaled to her that I had put it away, in fact, the position of the lower bunk has been almost placed, leaving a small empty space and almost letting my little trunk just put down.

Mom stared at the bottom of the seat, thinking that I couldn't put it inside, and she was not at ease again.

Then the figure moved, and looked back at me sideways. His sideways body allowed the sun to hit my face just at this time, and suddenly I felt a little hot, and sweat stains instantly appeared on my neck.

I don't know if it was because someone noticed that my parents were arguing in front of the public again, or because my mom asked me to take a seat, or if the carriage was stuffy and the sun was too warm.

Fortunately, in an instant, he turned around. The figure flickered, the seats shook, and the train started. The people on the platform were all moving backwards slowly, and the light was not so dazzling, swaying and flickering.

I laid out the quilt and pillow and looked around. The tall and thin boy was still standing in front of the window, and on the other side was an old lady, who should be in her sixties, and reported to the person on the phone that she was safe.

I looked up to see if there were any children on the middle bunk, and thought that if there were a few more bear children on the twenty-eight-hour long-distance bus, it would be really difficult. Fortunately, there is no now.,The top two seem to have slept people.,The middle bunk on the opposite side is empty.,There's a schoolbag in my middle bunk.,It should be a student.。 I pretended to be casual and glanced at the person standing in front of the window, it must have been.

"I'll probably arrive tomorrow afternoon, I don't need you to pick it up, I'll just take the car myself...... I'll take note..... Okay, we'll talk about it then. "The old lady is still on the phone, dressed well, and speaking in a gentle tone, maybe a retired cadre.

I leaned on the head of the bed while eating cherry tomatoes, and I was a little envious of this old lady.

Outside the window, the houses and trees ran quickly in the direction behind him, and there was a rare sense of relief and a little worry in his heart.

Because I didn't want to face the endless noise every day, I resolutely applied to a university outside the province. I didn't know that my mother was reluctant to give up on me, since I was a child, I was a person who didn't touch the spring water with five fingers and only read the books of sages.

It stands to reason that I should be the one who is most reluctant to leave home, but I really want to escape, maybe I was born in a blessing and did not know the blessing.

I remember when I received the acceptance letter, the neighbor next door said that I must be a crying person who wants to go home in the future. It's strange that in the four years of college, I didn't want to come back if it wasn't for the holidays to go home. This time it was an accident, I was about to graduate, there were no classes in school for more than a month, and I was forced to come back to take the local civil service exam, which was not what I wanted, I didn't sit in the office, but I couldn't get through my mother's insistence.

I remember when I was a sophomore, I considered staying in Rongcheng for graduate school, and my mother heard that I had been trained every other summer for a whole summer, and she said why do girls read so many books? How old will you be when you get married? I have a backlash, so what?

Seeing that this reason didn't move her, she changed her words after a few days and said, "Xiang Wan, you stay in Rongcheng, where do you put my mother?" Are you flying with stiff wings? Am I going to live in a nursing home when I'm old? ”

I always felt that my mother said that it was too early for me to come back after grad school, or that if I was doing well, I could pick her up.

However, she felt that this was the excuse for me to abandon her, and I couldn't afford to be forced to be charged with unfilial piety on my head by pointing my nose.

After all, she only gave birth to me, maybe she doesn't want to face this life alone, forget it, stay, I still compromised, after some hard work, I can only leave home for four years, and now it is the last half semester. After coming back for the exam this time, I immediately bought a ticket to return to school, and came back to handle graduate registration information and other matters.

What awaits me in the future? I didn't dare to think about it, and I didn't want to think about it. I looked out the window at the scenery, when I was a child, I wished I had the special ability of invisibility, so that no one could see me, and I could leave at any time, so I would find a sheet to cover myself, like Harry Potter's invisibility cloak, and I was caught by my mother every time.

So in reality, there will be no stealth, those who want to escape can't escape after all, and what should come will always come.
