03 Expectations
Day after day, Wang Xiaoying "taught" An Kang every day: "When you grow up, don't look very depressed like your sister, don't let people think that our family is too poor to support children!" An Ping is really ashamed! β
In this way, Xiaokang is also exposed to it, and he wants to take out his anger at An Ping all day long, pointing fingers and commenting on her, and gradually he doesn't even shout "sister" anymore.
An Ping is not angry with such a young child, as long as An Kang calls "An Ping" or "Hey", An Ping will immediately put down the work in her hand and saddle the horse for him.
On this day, Ankang was playing with a car upstairs. He pressed the car to the ground, dragged it back, and as soon as he let go, the car "swooped" and flew away.
An Ping was very envious when she saw this, and wanted to go over to play with her younger brother, "Xiaokang, the car is so fun, my sister also wants to play, you borrow me to play for a while, just for a while, okay?" β
She looked at Xiaokang with pleading eyes.
Ankang refused her without raising his head: "No! β
"Really?"
"Excuse me, get out! Go away! β
Xiaokang lost a lot of temper with An Ping, which really scared An Ping into crying. Her cry was so loud that it seemed to be able to reach the entire village.
When the parents heard the sound, they rushed over and saw that it was An Ping crying. Wang Xiaoying was irritable and scolded: "You little girl, don't cry, everyone heard it, and they thought we had done something to you?" Really, crying like killing a pig, it's so humiliating! Shut up! β
Her father punched her hard in the back, and she fell to the ground, but she didn't stop sobbing.
"That's it! What to cry about, what is there to cry about? You're a girl, you don't have the right to play with these boys' toys, don't think about beating your brother's idea! Hurry up and get to work! β
An Dongliang looked at An Ping crying and blushed, with tears left and right, and suddenly felt a little unusually distressed. For the first time, he noticed that his daughter was also so good-looking.
She combines all the advantages of her parents: watery eyes, a high nose bridge, moderately thick lips, and a peugeot melon seed face, just like her parents when they were young. You must know that Wang Xiaoying was the village flower of Wangjia Village when she was young, and An Dongliang was also a talent at that time, so he was able to attract the attention of the village flower.
An Ping is accustomed to the beating of her parents and younger brother, and gradually has matured beyond her peers. Her demeanor is a lot more stable, she no longer seems to be carefree, and there is always a worry or two on her face, just like Lin Daiyu, a sick beauty.
In the five years of elementary school, it was slowly consumed in the constant laundry, boiling water, and mopping the floor, and An Ping finally managed to go to junior high school.
has been working in silence all these years, and Yu Anping is helpless. Who calls himself a god-given brother who is very rare?
I'm going to report to my new school tomorrow. The parents finally bought An Ping a fashionable skirt and shiny little leather shoes.
An Ping was overjoyed, and looked again and again in front of the mirror in her new clothes. In the mirror, a taller and taller figure and a delicate and lovely face appeared, but the arms and body were still too slender.
She sat down at her small desk and flipped through the precious admission letterβit was the admission letter from the provincial high school!
When the parents first saw the admission letter that day, they were dumbfounded, and they couldn't say a word for a long time.
After a while, An Dongliang held the admission notice and said, "Girl, you were really admitted to the provincial middle school?" β
The father was incredulous and looked at An Ping with trembling eyes.
"Not really! Ah! Well, our family finally has a bright day! The mother also said excitedly, and a few tears actually flowed from her eyes.
An Ping didn't know if it was crocodile tears. But she prefers to believe that her mother is genuinely happy, if only because she can bring more benefits to the family.
In the past few years, An Ping has studied hard, and she is also trying to convince herself that her parents have high expectations for her, but this expectation is still a foreshadowing for her younger brother to go to junior high school in the future.
She looked at the red admission letter and was distracted, thinking that her hard days had come to an end, and she was a little reluctant.
