Chapter 128: The Dark Years
In a silence that was close to pure white, Zheng Xichen's consciousness slowly floated up, getting lighter and lighter, lighter and lighter, so light that he could almost fly into the sky. &1t;/p>
The fragrant fragrance of camellia flowers floated around Zheng Xichen, making her feel like she was in a fairyland. &1t;/p>
It seems that you can hear the cheers of the angels and the play with the children. &1t;/p>
She could see that in the green field, unknown birds and flowers were born, a fountain stood in the center, and the beautiful and pure Greek goddess was playing and singing a beautiful harp, and the music flowed, and the angels sang along with the music, and the sound was like the most mellow rain in the world. &1t;/p>
Suddenly, the scenery changed dramatically. &1t;/p>
The vibrant green meadows have turned into dark alleys, and the stagnant water on the ground has grown moss because it has not seen the light of day for many years; The joyful sound of the harp turned into angry rebukes and scolding, and the singing of the angels turned into piercing screams. &1t;/p>
Pleasure becomes fear, peace of mind becomes apprehension, dependence becomes escape. &1t;/p>
The little Zheng Xichen hugged his arms and leaned against the mottled and damp wall tremblingly, with some miscellaneous items piled up beside him. &1t;/p>
Her small, immature countenance had not yet fully grown, but fear had left its mark on her face in the accumulation of years. &1t;/p>
Years of fear and insomnia had kept her eyes dark, and the untreatable pain tormented her, making her look very haggard, yellow and thin, and almost unhealthy. &1t;/p>
But only those eyes, wide and round, like a precious stone worth a thousand gold, soaked in water, shining, this is a pair of beautiful clear eyes. &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen hugged himself tightly, tears slowly slid down his cheeks, slid over his chapped lips, and fell to the ground with a small cracking sound. &1t;/p>
Suddenly, as if she had heard some terrible sound, she hugged herself tighter, buried her little head in her lap, and trembled as pitiful as a little rabbit being tracked by wolves. &1t;/p>
"Bang", the door was shaken, Li Qiang staggered in, he entered the house, threw his shoes at will, and then entered the living room. &1t;/p>
Li Li followed him, wearing a cheap red gaudy dress, and her face was made with cosmetics and unnatural makeup bought from a small shop on the street, making her whole person look very much like the low-level people she usually despised. &1t;/p>
But she didn't realize it at all, but held the mirror in a charming way, opened her head, and squeezed the acne on her face vigorously, her oily face was in stark contrast to Zheng Xichen's thin little face. &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen shrank into a small ball, trying to hide himself as much as possible, not daring to make a sound. &1t;/p>
Li Li slammed the mirror on the table, and there were some leftovers on the oil-stained table, which was crumbling by her. &1t;/p>
"Bad luck, it's all your fault these days, you little rabbit cub, are you running to fight again?" Li Li grabbed Li Qiang's ears resentfully. &1t;/p>
Li Qiang's whole person was tiptoeing up, he was angry, and he opened Li Li's hand with a "snap", and pushed Li Li hard, pushing Li Li to sit on the chair with a butt, screaming in shock. &1t;/p>
"You little rabbit turned the sky upside down, I see that your dad won't clean you up when he comes back!" &1t;/p>
Li Qiang sneered, "Just that old immortal, I'll clean him up and he's almost the same, look at him all day long, how can my brother Wang be amazing!" ”&1t;/p>
When he was more than ten years old, he followed the people on the "road" to mix together, collect protection money together, gamble money together, and clean up those who were not long-sighted, how could he be the son of Zheng Guoqiang, a garbage man? &1t;/p>
"You, you keep quiet, don't let your dad hear you later." Li Li loves and hates this son, and half of the reason why Li Qiang is so rampant today is because of her connivance. &1t;/p>
She was reluctant to beat him, and she couldn't control him, and over time, Li Qiang stopped listening to her. &1t;/p>
"Dad? Is he worthy, old thief? ”&1t;/p>
"Li Qiang, don't you listen to me?" Li Li said angrily, wanting to regain some dignity as a mother. &1t;/p>
However, Li Qiang didn't give her face at all: "Heh, Mom, in my opinion, you better go to bed and lie down, and when the old immortal dies, I will sell this rotten house and take you to live in that luxurious big house!" ”&1t;/p>
Li Li sneered suspiciously, "It's just you, it's still a big house, don't think about these things all day long." ”&1t;/p>
She doesn't know her son herself, what can she do? &1t;/p>
"What do you know about you, a woman? I don't know how not to point fingers here, Brother Wang said, as long as I mix well with him and become famous in the future, let me be the second-in-command in the gang, and I will be a big money person in the future, is it your turn to teach you a lesson here? ”&1t;/p>
Li Qiang trusted his brother Wang very much, and he couldn't wait to shed his blood for him, so that he could be the founding father of their "gang". &1t;/p>
But Li Li is a person who knows what she knows, although she usually loves fantasy, but this kind of thing is not very reliable when she hears it. &1t;/p>
When she heard Brother Wang, Li Li couldn't help but worry: "You dead boy, don't learn that with those gangsters all day long, it's true to go to school hard, by the way, you haven't been to school for a few days?" ”&1t;/p>
"Hey, what's the use of going to school, Brother Wang said, those who go to school can only work for us in the future, and they don't have to go to school." Li Qiang didn't care at all. &1t;/p>
"You, you really don't listen!" Li Li bared her teeth and hated him, angry, and couldn't bear to beat him, of course, she couldn't beat him. &1t;/p>
Li Li's eyes fluttered, and suddenly, she saw Zheng Xichen squatting by the wall, and suddenly raised her eyebrows. &1t;/p>
"I'll kill you little bastard!" &1t;/p>
Li Li rushed over violently, picked up Zheng Xichen, and threw him into the middle of the living room. &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen hugged his head as if he had anticipated this scene, and endured the pain on his body. &1t;/p>
"Hmph, this daughter is also as wretched as that old immortal, it's really boring!" Li Qiang kicked Zheng Xichen's small body as if playfully, then pouted and entered his room. &1t;/p>
Li Li also slapped Zheng Xichen hard, and then punched and kicked Zheng Xichen to the floor. &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen gritted her teeth, the blood on her lips slid down like beads, and the pain was like a needle, eroding her bone marrow all the time, making her torture. &1t;/p>
Feeling the raindrops of fists and slaps falling on his body, Zheng Xichen silently shed tears and felt a burst of sadness. &1t;/p>
She can only comfort herself, it will pass, it will be fine, the teacher said that the sky will be a great responsibility, and she must first work her muscles and bones, starve her body and skin, so she is just going through the tribulations that she should have. &1t;/p>
But comfort is only comfort, except that it can make her die in the illusory warmth like a little match girl. &1t;/p>
She was not religious, but God said He was merciful, so why didn't He come to her rescue? &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen actually knows that the world is full of dangers and obstacles, and there are thorns on the way. &1t;/p>
She had to remember what kind of darkness she had lived in. &1t;/p>
Only by knowing the coldness and horror of darkness can we feel the warmth of light and cherish the happiness that is not easy to obtain. &1t;/p>
And Li Li and Li Qiang, their mother and son didn't treat Zheng Xichen as a living person at all, they only regarded her as a tool to vent their anger, a sandbag, and a little mongrel who took away Zheng Guoqiang's attention. &1t;/p>
Therefore, every time the two of them are dissatisfied, they will beat Zheng Xichen in private, Zheng Xichen has also been unconvinced and resisted, but how can a half-old child beat an adult and a teenager? &1t;/p>
It's just that they were beaten even worse. &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen's resistance was useless, so he wanted to tell his father Zheng Guoqiang. &1t;/p>
The little child is looking forward to her father almost as a hero, expecting her father to care about her, expecting her father to stand up for her and beat away those bad people. &1t;/p>
However, the truth is that her father not only failed to defeat those bad people, but even turned a blind eye to their evil deeds. &1t;/p>
As soon as he questioned their mother and son, Li Li would cry, saying that Zheng Guoqiang didn't take their mother and son seriously at all, and Li Qiang would threaten to beat him. &1t;/p>
So with the courage of this cowardly man, he only dared to quietly cover her with a sheet at night when he saw Zheng Xichen shrinking into a ball of cold, or comforted Zheng Xichen without confidence and told her that everything would be fine. &1t;/p>
In Zheng Xichen's heart, the original father was not like this. &1t;/p>
Her father would take him to the playground to ride the merry-go-round, tell fairy tales to lull him to sleep, and be a good father who would romantically cook candlelight dinners for his mother. &1t;/p>
It's not this submissive, decadent face, who doesn't even dare to speak loudly. &1t;/p>
Li Li and Li Qiang are right, he is a wreck, a son who can't protect his daughter. &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen will never expect anyone's salvation again, she knows, she knows very well, she will live in such dark days until she grows up. &1t;/p>
"Little bastard, I'm sorry, I can only beat you to relieve my hatred, I really don't know if your mother is as useless as you!" Li Li shook her hand, as if there was something dirty on Zheng Xichen's body. &1t;/p>
Zheng Xichen's originally indifferent eyes gradually waved, and a high anger rose, and she bit Li Li's hand with great force, as if she wanted to bite off a piece of her meat. &1t;/p>
"I'm not allowed to say my mother!" Zheng Xichen burst into tears, and shouted loudly in a hoarse voice, "I don't allow, I don't allow!" ”&1t;/p>
Isn't it enough to hit her, why talk about her mom? &1t;/p>
That was the only beautiful memory she had left, and no one could shatter it! &1t;/p>
She looked angry like a mad lion cub, biting the neck of her prey and not letting go. &1t;/p>
Li Li screamed sharply and scolded angrily: "You lifeless little bastard! I'll kill you! ”&1t;/p>
&1t;/p>
&1t;/p>
