Chapter 35: Memories (3)

It snowed overnight and dyed the world white.

The roadtops, the treetops, the rooftops, and the heads of the stray dogs huddled in the corners were covered with a thick layer of silver. Frost climbed up the window and tried to break into the classroom and make a fuss. The glass desperately grabbed the edge of the window to stop it, it was "sweating profusely", and "sweat droplets" slid down and smashed into Su Xin's pale face.

Su Xin, who was lying on the table and pretending to be asleep, secretly thought about his thoughts.

She recalls leaving the house in the morning when her mother's disappointed eyes were filled with tears and sobbing.

"Xiao Xin, why haven't you grown up yet, haven't grown up yet." The mother sewed up Su Xin's torn school uniform, and her lips couldn't stop trembling.

"Grow up quickly......" Su Xin repeated over and over again.

I don't want to grow up, Su Xin licked the wound on his lips, swallowed the tears that came out of his stomach and shivered with cold, his thin body shivered from the cold, and his hands tightened more and more, trying to keep warm.

When I grew up, no one liked it.

I went to get my ears pierced this afternoon, and she made up her mind and changed her mind.

Su Xin touched his earlobe.

Ear piercing is going to hurt, forget it.

She closed her eyes and planned to sleep for a while, but the noisy atmosphere in the room upset her.

"Sister Su! Sister Su! ”

A pair of hands shook her frantically.

Su Xin endured his sleepiness and anger, raised his head, and tore away his drooping eyelids with his hands.

She had heavy eyeshadow and lipstick on her face, exaggerated false eyelashes, and a new wound on her forehead that had been injured in a fight with someone from the next class the day before.

The official explanation for teachers and parents was that he tripped over a stone and broke his head when he was riding home from school.

"Sister Su! The guy from the next class is here again! The little lady with dyed blond hair looked panicked, and the compass she was holding in her hand for self-defense also fell to the ground.

Su Xin lowered her head and bit her tongue fiercely, feeling the pain forcing her chaotic head to cleanse. She got up slowly, tied up her crimson hair, and glanced at the few little brothers who were ready to go: "Go!" ”

Wearing only a single gown, she walked to the classroom door, the chain on her buttoned pants rattling.

The newly appointed life committee member stretched out his hand to stop her, but the squad leader pressed him: "Let her go." ”

The squad leader let go of the hand that was pressing his shoulder: "You can't stop it." ”

The sun and snow outside the window are covered in snow. The biting cold wind hit, whistling in the ears, and the snow flakes that were driven blew on the people who were outdoors, and in the ears and between the hairs, turned into ice water and penetrated into the skin through the pores. The little brothers behind Su Xin wrapped their clothes tightly and shrunk their necks and stepped on the snow, one step at a time, their whole bodies trembling.

Su Xin's ears and lips were purple, his whole body was hot, there was a smell of blood in his throat, his arms and feet were unconscious, and the flat shoes under his feet had long been soaked by water, and they were wet and sticking to the soles of his feet.

She lifted her feet, and the cold wind poured into the soles of her shoes and blew the upper of the sandals; She stepped on, the cold hitting the surface of her foot, straight to the door of her head.

Walking to the foot of the mountain, seeing the crowd of black pressure on the mountainside behind her from a distance, Su Xin retreated a little, she bit her tongue again, clenched her fists, and stepped forward......

When Su Xin regained consciousness, he was in the hospital.

Su Xin was lying on the hospital bed, dizzy and groggy wrapped in gauze, her whole body ached, as long as she was together, the ceiling fan and insulin dropper above her head kept rotating in her field of vision.

Her throat was still hot, and she felt the pain of her eyes.

She turned her head and saw Zheng Mu who was lying on the edge of the bed holding her hand and fell asleep, and smiled with relief, she moved her fingers and couldn't wake him up. So Su Xin raised his upper body with his eyes closed, sat on the bed, and the feeling of spinning the world hit his brain.

"Su Xin! You're awake Su Xin, that's great. Su Xin couldn't distinguish this familiar voice without opening her eyes, and she pressed her throat to squeeze out a word: "Water-"

"Oh, okay." Zheng Mu picked up the water cup on the table and handed it directly to Su Xin.

The cold touch came into Su Xin's palm again, and she wanted to take a sip of hot water, but she still endured the stinging pain in her throat and drank all the ice water in the cup.

Zheng Mu sat on the bed and helped Su Xin up.

"Su Xin, it's really good that you're okay, do you know, I brought my friends with me later, and I taught a hard lesson to the people brought by several opponents in Class 5. Thankfully, you bought me time to prepare. ”

Su Xin shook his head and said that he didn't want to hear this, he held Zheng Mu's warm hand tightly, but he didn't feel a trace of warmth rushing into her heart.

"By the way, Su Xin, when you're ready, I'll take you to get your ears pierced."

Su Xin was stunned, opened his eyes with difficulty, and his pale lips opened.

"But it hurts to get your ears pierced." Su Xin, who was half-asleep and half-awake, didn't know if he had really asked this sentence.

But she was sure that she had heard Zheng Mu's answer.

"It's okay, otherwise others won't even dare to pierce my ears if others know that my Zheng Mu's girlfriend will be so faceless."

Su Xin felt that his heart had hit an iceberg and was split. Her whole body trembled, and her empty and soulless body once again lost its strength, and she collapsed to the bed, turned sideways, and the last shred of hope fell to the bottom, shattered.

"I'm tired, let me sleep a little longer." Her eyes were closed and her tone was calm.

"Well, then I'll go home first, or when your family comes, you'll have to trouble me again, goodbye." Zheng Mu pursed his lips, put on a disgusted expression, and ran out of the ward as if he were fleeing.

"See you again, Zheng Mu." Su Xin said to himself.

Su Xin fell asleep, and she had a dream.

I dreamed that when I was bullied when I first arrived at school, the boy who stood up for himself and radiated light all over his body.

She confuses the concepts of gratitude and affection. Since then, she has decided to follow Zheng Mu and do what he orders her to do, dye her hair color she doesn't like, put on annoying makeup, say disgusting swear words, and become an out-and-out person she hates.

On the other hand, Zheng Mu at this time could no longer see any pity and love for himself in his eyes.

She seemed to be able to see her mother's swollen eyes again.

Su Xin's heart is like a knife, she can finally hide in her own world in her sleep, shrink in the corner and cry loudly, comb back her healthy black hair, put on comfortable clothes, wash it into a clean and plain makeup, and be the little girl who needs to be cared for.

She was woken up by a sobbing voice, which was painfully suppressed.

Su Xin got up and touched the damp pillow.

"Awake?" Su Fangran sat on the edge of the bed and choked, her eyes were terribly swollen with squeezed slits by eye bags, and there were long tear stains on her pale face, but she still had the apple that Su Xin loved to eat in her hand.

"Mom! I'm sorryβ€”" Su Xin howled loudly and hugged his mother.

"Xiaoxin, let's go home, go home." Yes, Su Fangran can feel that her daughter is back.

The mother and daughter cried in the ward for a long, long time, until the thick clouds outside the window dispersed, the sunlight shone on the white earth, the snow-crooked treetops, and the shiny rooftops, all melted into flowing water and slid down, and the swallows flew into the clear sky and waved their wings and chirped loudly, announcing the arrival of spring.

The stray dog shook the water on his head, got up tremblingly, looked at the bright sunshine, a little girl saw it, carefully picked him up and took him back, the puppy that night filled his belly kept barking happily, kicking his paws, and tears flowed from his eyes.

So the wandering children found their own happy homes......
