Chapter 111: The Superfluous One
"Ah, Auntie, I want to go home."
Although Jiang Mi looked a little timid, his hand stubbornly held the deadbolt tightly. If it weren't for the fact that she was not used to using this bolt, and it took several attempts to find the correct way to open it, she would have been on the way home by this time.
"It's late, let's go home tomorrow." Aunt Ming'er will accompany you back. Liu Mei has already won the support of the whole family, and she feels confident about adopting Jiang Mi. In her mind, Li Lamei's family is so poor, it must be a desperate thing to give Jiang Mi to her family for adoption.
In this ignorant and backward countryside, I don't know how many girls have been drowned at birth. Especially after the implementation of family planning in the past two years, in order to avoid fines and give birth to boys, this situation seems to be even more uncommon. As the second daughter in the family, Jiang Mi is definitely regarded as the superfluous one at home. Otherwise, I would not have been forced to drop out of school at a young age and do those manual tasks at home that even adults find tired.
Jiang Mi knew that this Aunt Liu had good intentions, and she was not a stupid child who didn't know the hearts of good people.
The hand slowly withdrew from the deadbolt.
Thinking about what Li Lamei did this afternoon, Jiang Mi suddenly felt that her not going back tonight would just make Li Lamei anxious. Save yourself from beating or scolding yourself at every turn.
Jiang Mi hesitated and returned to Westinghouse. Nie Weiping took a bowl of hawthorn water and just walked in.
"You can sleep here in peace. Tomorrow my mother will accompany you back. Your mother won't dare hit you. Well, drink this hawthorn water for a while, you are in a hurry to eat tonight, and I am afraid that it will not be very comfortable at night. Drinking hawthorn water can promote digestion. ”
He also put some rock sugar in the hawthorn water, which shouldn't be difficult to drink.
Jiang Mi obediently took the bowl and drank silently.
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Nie Weiping suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart. The inexplicable sense of familiarity with Jiang Mi before disappeared without a trace.
"Well, I'll go back to my house and do my homework. Nie Weidong went out to watch a movie, and it was estimated that he would come back quite late. You don't have to be afraid when you hear the movement, just plug in the door and sleep. ”
As Nie Weiping spoke, he picked up his books, put them in his schoolbag and carried them, and took the tray on the side of the table again, and after glancing at Jiang Mi, he saw that Jiang Mi was still looking down and didn't look at him. I couldn't help but feel inexplicably depressed. Turned around and walked out.
But when he put away the tableware, returned to his bedroom, took out his book and was about to continue some homework, he suddenly found the calculation paper where Jiang Mi had written the answer to the problem, and the whole person was stunned.
The answers to the questions above are obviously much simpler and easier than the answers he wrote, and there is one question that he really wrote wrong. Who wrote this? Could it be Jiangmi?
He hadn't noticed the paper on which the answer was written.
However, didn't Jiang Mi just graduate from elementary school? How is it possible to write the exam questions for the third year of junior high school?
Nie Weiping was a little confused.
I took the paper and went out to ask Jiang Mi, but when I went to the yard, I found that the lights in the West House had been turned off. Jiang Mi fell asleep.
When I fell asleep, I was naturally embarrassed to wake people up again. After Nie Weiping returned to the house, he redid those questions, took the handwritten calculus paper in his hand and looked at it carefully, and after a long time, he carefully sandwiched it into the diary with an inexplicable expression, as if he was not at ease, and put the notebook in the drawer and locked it.
In the middle of the night, Nie Weidong returned home.
On weekdays, if this kid comes home too late, he usually chooses to climb the wall, but today he may not be able to climb the wall because he injured his hand, so he slapped the gate loudly.
Nie Weiping was already asleep, and after being woken up by the knock on the door, he came to his senses for a long time, and understood that it was the demon king of his family who had returned, rubbed his eyes, and was just about to get up and put on his shoes to open the street door, when he heard the click of the street door.
Followed by Nie Weidong's bastard shouting, "Hey, Sister Jiangmi, you come to open the door for me." ”
