Chapter 15 Despair can be repeated and not repeated
Aunt Liu and Xiao Zhijie, oh, they should have changed their names to Jin Zhijie, at first they were still restrained by latecomers, and they were very polite when they acted.
Soon Aunt Liu adapted to the identity of the hostess. Although it is not too much of a "stepmother" with Rushing Rain, it has shown a difference in the treatment of biological sons and stepdaughters.
Torrential rain can't casually enter and leave her and Jin Minghai's bedroom, but Jin Zhijie can enter Torrential Rain's room at will without knocking on the door and use the computer.
Rushing rain felt very uncomfortable, and protested with Jin Minghai many times on the grounds of "being disturbed doing homework".
After listening to this, Jin Minghai said that he could buy a new computer and put it in Jin Zhijie's room.
But Aunt Liu refused on the grounds that "I don't want Jin Zhijie to be addicted to games, and he will be restrained by the rain supervising him", and put on a posture of being diligent and thrifty: "The two children are in high school, and they can use the computer for more than a few hours a day? There is no need to buy another one. ”
Jin Minghai was convinced.
Torrential Rain didn't want Jin Zhijie to go in and out of his room too often, so he simply gave up the computer. On the day of moving the computer, Jin Zhijie glanced at her with a gloomy and sympathetic gaze. Rushing Rain closed the door with a blank face.
Jin Minghai only considered saving money, and perhaps also considered using this to promote the relationship between "reorganizing brothers and sisters". But he forgot that the two children are older, and they are not friends yet, let alone relatives.
When Kim Ji-jie uses the computer in her room, she takes a book to the balcony. When he was gone, when she returned to her room to look for something, she caught a glimpse of the web he had browsed, and felt sick to her stomach.
As soon as Jin Zhijie moved in, he asked about her QQ number, and she said that she didn't use it often and didn't remember it anymore. When I got back, I deleted the login history of my computer.
It may be related to childhood experiences, and Rainstorm is born with a strong sense of self-preservation. If you are a young animal, the wisdom of survival is not to defeat lions and tigers, but to try to avoid walking at night in places infested by predators.
Torrential rain used his "small treasury" to quietly buy a mobile phone. If you don't have a computer, you can check the encyclopedia with your mobile phone. The only downside is that there is an extra bill payment every month.
I got up earlier every day, but I didn't eat breakfast at home, so I went to the school gate to buy breakfast, and after entering the classroom, I started to read books.
In the evening, he went home with Zhai Yi.
When Zhai Yi was in high school, he refused to be picked up by his family's car. Ride a bicycle back and forth like a torrential rain.
When he gets up in the morning, he just goes downstairs to push the cart, and if he sees the white bicycle still locked there, he will subconsciously slow down.
Torrential rain doesn't come late, so he often doesn't have to wait long to see her come down. He pretended to be surprised and said hello, and the two walked together. And as long as the bicycle in the rain is gone, you know that she has gone first. Like recently, I can't always see her car.
He naturally knew that the great changes that had taken place in the Rushing Rain family. Even if Torrential Rain didn't mention it much, he could expect her to be depressed.
Two months into the school year. Although it was an April day, the evening self-study was over, and there was still a slight coolness on the road. Fortunately, the street lights are warm, and they shine all the way.
"How are you getting along with your new family?"
“…… So so. ”
"You and the rosary, still don't talk?"
Zhai Yi hopes that they can get back together soon.
If there was a female companion who could speak her heart, maybe she wouldn't always frown like she does now.
"Hmm......" Torrential Rain replied vaguely.
"This summer, let's go to H City to see the World Expo." Zhai Yi said, "You, me, and the rosary together." ”
"When the time comes, let's talk about it." Torrential rain could not give a positive answer. In the past, as long as the use was reasonable, Jin Minghai was very generous when he gave pocket money to Torrential Rain. And now the family's finances are controlled by Aunt Liu. The pocket money of the torrential rain is only enough to afford three meals and clothing.
"By the way, what was the name of the piano piece you played last Saturday?" She changed the subject, "That's nice." ”
"It's called 'Kikujiro's Summer'." Zhai Yi said, "The movie of the same name was made by Takeshi Kitano, which is very good. ”
"yes, I haven't seen it." The two men were talking, and the streetlights stretched the shadows of them riding bicycles side by side thin and long.
Except for weekends, she doesn't eat a meal at home. And on Friday, there are only two meals: breakfast and lunch.
In a vain attempt to save a sum of money and afford to pay for the mobile phone bill every month.
Speaking of which, her mobile phone, in addition to checking information and boarding QQ, is like a decoration.
Once Zhang Xiaomad was fighting with her classmates and accidentally bumped into her desk, it was revealed that Torrential Rain had a mobile phone in the class.
Since then, Zhang Xiaomad's Chinese class, in addition to sleeping, has one more thing, that is, borrowing the mobile phone of the rain to pass the time.
Torrential rain said that as long as it was not confiscated, let her go.
Although Zhang Xiaomad did not bluntly say that he could afford half of the phone bill, he would rush to pay for the rainy lunch in the cafeteria every month, at least three times.
The rosary has a mobile phone thing, as we all know. Once, another girl in the class asked her for a number, and she called it out.
The rain didn't look back, but silently wrote down the string of numbers.
As the weather got hotter, it dawned on her that another semester had passed, and she and the rosary had not yet broken the ice.
The days of having to stay at home on weekends made the rain feel very depressing.
Kim Ji-jae often walks around the living room without a shirt and only a pair of big pants on his lower body.
Rushing rain told Aunt Liu about it, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with her son's behavior, "Boys, it's hot in summer."
"That's not how my dad is." The torrential rain couldn't bear to rush out.
"Yes, your Jin family has a lot of rules." Aunt Liu replied in a weird way, "We countrymen, we don't pay attention to cutting." ”
Jin Minghai came back at this time, and Aunt Liu glanced at her directly, slammed the door and entered the bedroom.
"What's wrong with you, Aunt Liu?" Jin Minghai asked his daughter.
Before Rush Yu could answer, Aunt Liu's suppressed cry came from the bedroom. Jin Minghai frowned, and hurriedly put down the car key and chased after him.
"It's really boring for a little girl to point fingers, it's really ......boring for Ou to live" (S market dialect: Pointing fingers at a little girl's family, it's really not interesting for me to live.) )
Aunt Liu's sobbing voice came intermittently, and Torrential Rain sat in the living room with a blank expression.
After a while, Jin Minghai came out. He did not reprimand Rush Yu, but still warned her in a very serious tone: You can't point fingers at Aunt Liu and Jin Zhijie in the future. "Accept them as your relatives from the bottom of your heart, they are not guests."
Rushing rain was infinitely aggrieved in his heart, and his hands were tightly tangled together. She bit her lip and finally refrained from saying anything, burying her head low.
They are not guests. And what about her? In this family, he has never been the master.
There was no air conditioning in the room in the torrential rain, and although there was a vertical air conditioner in the living room that could be used, she didn't dare to covet the slightest coolness, so she closed the door all night.
The palms of the rapid rain are red, and the heart meridian is hot, how can you not be afraid of heat?
She survived summer night after summer by the breeze through a screen window and the small fan on her desk that moved to the head of the bed.
Of course, there are times when you can't sleep all night. She pulled out her phone, but she didn't know who to call.
When the final exams came, her grades slipped and she was second in her class and ninth in her grade.
Rao was like this, and Jin Minghai didn't scold her. Because compared to Jin Zhijie, it is much better.
Kim Ji-jae failed several classes. Aunt Liu criticized him mercilessly in front of everyone at the dinner table, Jin Minghai followed by him, and Rushing Rain was eating with his head down, just wanting to return to the room after eating as soon as possible.
"Torrential rain, can you make up for Zhijie?" Aunt Liu Yin Yin asked.
Rushing Yu lightly refused, "I didn't do well in the exam this time, as for tutoring, the 'Xiuwen' training is good, I have made up English there." ”
Jin Zhijie snorted coldly from his nose, "Isn't it just the top ten in the grade, what's the big deal." ”
Aunt Liu put the chopsticks on the table, "It's better than you." When will you be able to fight for some gas? ”
Rushing rain cautiously mentioned to Jin Minghai that he wanted to take a look at the expo during the summer vacation, Jin Minghai hesitated, and then said: "Ma is a sophomore in high school, so don't go." ”
A few days later, Rushing Rain found out that Aunt Liu really listened to her and stuffed her son into a cram school.
That's a good thing for the torrential rain. At least reduce the amount of time two people spend together.
When I went downstairs to take out the garbage after dinner, I met Zhai Yi who went downstairs for a walk, and Torrential Rain told him the news that he couldn't go.
"The World Expo is a rare event in a century, and it should be visited." Zhai Yi also tried to continue lobbying her.
Rushing Rain smiled, "Then don't forget to take more photos when the time comes." After a pause, he added, "I'm sorry." ”
Zhai Yi waved his hand, indicating that it didn't matter, but a trace of loss flashed in his eyes.
One day more than halfway through the summer, the rain was alone at home.
Jin Minghai and his wife were at work, and Jin Zhijie went to cram school.
She woke up from a nap, hot and stuffy, ready to take a shower.
The torrential rain washed her hair, and the "whooshing" water poured down from the shower, accompanied by the fragrant fragrance of the shampoo, which made her feel much more relaxed.
With no one at home, she was much more comfortable. I changed into my nightdress, washed my dirty clothes, wiped my hair with a towel, and went to the balcony to dry my clothes.
The door lock suddenly rang, and Torrential Rain quickly ripped off a shirt on the balcony and put it over his body.
Kim Ji-jae suddenly came back at this time. He threw the schoolbag in his hand onto the sofa, raised his eyes and saw the torrential rain, and smiled evilly: "Take a bath?" ”
Rushing Rain didn't intend to ignore him, wrapped up in a towel and went straight to his room.
"It's hot, isn't it?" Jin Zhijie did not shy away from taking off his upper T-shirt and threw it on the sofa, and then went to unbutton his pants.
The torrential rain rushed into his room, and he was about to close the door immediately, and at the moment when he was about to successfully isolate him, Jin Zhijie suddenly grabbed the doorknob with force.
Faced with a frightened torrential rain, he smiled sadly: "Why are you running so fast? I've been here for so long, and you've said no more than three words to me. Do you hate me? ”
Rushing Rain's heart rose to his throat, and he tried to close the door again and again.
But the difference in strength between men and women made her despair. If he is allowed to come in, what a terrible outcome awaits him.
Rushing rain coldly grabbed the towel on his shoulder in his hand and slammed it into his face.
Jin Zhijie instinctively retreated backwards, and Rushing Rain took advantage of this gap to slam the door shut, quickly locking it.
"." There was an expletive outside the door.
After a while, she heard the footsteps of Kim Ji-jae leaving.
Torrential rain breathed a sigh of relief, but her whole body still trembled uncontrollably.
The devil is gone, and she's safe. No, it's just safe for now. She had to stay here until the adults came back.
Who can guarantee that after a while, he won't bang on the door?
She rushed to the window and tried to shout twice towards Zhai Yi's house. No response.
She remembered her phone. Dig it out of your school bag, board QQ, and send a message to Zhai Yi. Video Requests. None of them were answered.
The torrential rain immediately called Jin Minghai. Jin Minghai didn't know that she had a mobile phone, maybe because it was an unfamiliar number, he picked it up for a long time.
"Hello? Who is it? ”
"Dad, it's me! I'm Rushing Rain, Kim Ji-jae, he came back without finishing his tutoring, and now he's going to ......"
Jin Minghai thought that his daughter was complaining, and interrupted her, "Come back, come back, you get along well", his voice was far away, "I have important things to deal with at hand, Rushing rain, I won't tell you first." ”
"Dad, don't hang up!" Torrential rain shouted, "Come back soon......"
Jin Minghai had already hung up the phone in a hurry.
Rushing Rain heard the sound of the end of the call, and couldn't help but break down and cry. After a pause, he continued to call, but Jin Minghai did not answer again.
There was a sound at the lock of the door, and the torrential rain suddenly startled, and suddenly stopped crying, and looked back at the door.
"I got one from my mom." Jin Zhijie's voice came eeriely from outside the door, and he laughed lowly after speaking.
Rushing Rain screamed in horror when he heard this. Seeing that the doorknob was about to turn open, she didn't know where she got the strength, dragged it across the table and pushed it behind the door, and held it against it.
Ji Kai lifted the pillow, took out the fruit knife that had been living here all night from below, and climbed on the windowsill on the chair.
There was a fence on the windowsill, and she couldn't jump if she wanted to.
The door lock has been opened, and Kim Jijie lifted his foot and kicked it hard again and again.
The string of numbers popped up in her mind, and she trembled and dialed it on her phone like grasping a life-saving straw.
Fortunately, it only rang twice before it was picked up, and Rushing Rain heard his despair surging towards the other party in the sound of electricity: "Help! ”
The rosary couldn't help but be frightened, she heard the sound of the torrential rain, and clenched her phone: "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Call the police for me!" Seeing that the door was kicked open, Jin Zhijie's sad smiling face had already appeared by the door frame, and she rushed out without thinking about her words: "My dad remarried, and that woman's son is going to enter my room - I'm going to kill him, or, kill myself!" ”
