When Sun Xiaohong entered the courtyard, her grandmother was feeding the chickens in the yard, with an apron tied around her waist and a dustpan in her hand. I had no intention of catching a glimpse of Xiaohong's lost soul, and I was very puzzled. "This kid has been thinking heavily since he was a child, and he has been stuffy about everything, which is not good."

Thinking like this, she frowned slightly, and just wanted to ask her what was going on, but suddenly found that Xiaohong's face was very ugly, so she changed the content of what she wanted to say just now: "Xiaohong, who are you angry with?" Didn't you go to school today to get your diploma? Why did you come back so late? ”

"Grandma, I'm not angry with anyone, I'm angry with myself! I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me! Xiaohong lowered her eyes, muttered quietly in her mouth, absentmindedly said a perfunctory word to her grandmother, and walked straight to the yard with her head down. She looks like a canna that has been beaten by autumn frost, and she can't get up anymore.

"What the hell is wrong with this kid? It was fine when I went out in the morning, but why is it like this now? Did you encounter something unpleasant again? Grandma thought to herself, she stood in the courtyard and watched in confusion as Sun Xiaohong opened the door silently, hid in her cabin, closed the curtains, and plunged herself on the kang and remained motionless.

"What kind of song does this kid sing?" When the grandmother saw her like this, she shook her head gently, cooed in her mouth, and by the way, sprinkled the grain in her hand evenly into the trough where the chickens were fed, and the hens kept flapping their wings, and they all stuck their heads in the trough, and competed with each other to peck.

When Grandma was feeding the chickens, she would turn around from time to time and look inside the house with her heels cocked. After the hens had eaten and dispersed, the grandmother quietly returned to the house, reached out and untied the apron around her waist, changed into a blue cloth coat, and poked her head into the hut inside, she was very worried and put her ear on the glass window, and listened to no movement inside, so she asked softly: "Xiaohong, the food is in the pot, just hot, I will go to the garden to pick vegetables in a while, if you are hungry, bring it out and eat it yourself!" After Grandma finished speaking, she approached the window again and listened to the movement inside.

"Grandma, I know, you go outside and get busy, don't worry about me!" As soon as Grandma's words fell, a weak answer came from inside the room. This faint voice, as if it had been wronged by something, pulled a long tune that could not be fathomed.

"This kid is like this at every turn, it's really sad!" Grandma saw that Xiaohong was safe and sound, so she stopped being verbose, she listened attentively, and felt that there was no need to be suspicious, she carried a wicker basket in her hand, one foot in the door and one foot outside the door, she hesitated at the door for a long time before coming out of the house. She entered the garden slowly, looked back a few more times, and estimated that the problem was not big, so she was relieved to go to work inside.

The courtyard was empty, and the well-fed chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs were so quiet that they lay in the shade of the yard and closed their eyes to recuperate, and the burning clouds in the sky were colorful and exuding strange light, and they were entangled to the ground one by one, and they were suffocating.

Sun Xiaohong lay there quietly, biting her lip tightly. Her eyes were silently fixed on the light bulb on the roof of the shed, motionless. Behind the embarrassing results, there will always be many embarrassing things.

At this moment, Sun Xiaohong's heart is conflicted. Growing up, she had never been so helpless. The strings of frustrated tears slowly slipped down the corners of his eyes, allowing them to flow silently.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, in short, it was useless to blame herself, and as soon as she thought of these problems, her head began to swell inexplicably. However, such a fragile test score, in the final analysis, is not useless, who can blame it?

In such a family of nine people of three generations, although life is not too rich, Sun Xiaohong has no dissatisfaction at all. Of the five siblings, she spent the longest time in school, read the most, and did the least work. This is also the most unforgettable and grateful experience in her life.

Thinking of her sister, she was even more sad. Back then, when my sister was studying in school, she was also very attentive, but after graduating from junior high school, she didn't want to miss it. So, my mother wanted her to review for another year, even if it was a medium major. But my sister didn't listen, she especially wanted to find a good job in the city, so despite the opposition of her family, she went to the provincial capital alone to stay at her uncle's house, who was an official.

Not long after, my sister's intermediary there found a temporary job that was quite satisfactory, although she didn't earn much, she was still satisfied. She lived and ate at her uncle's house every day, and in order to please others, she gave her aunt one-third of her salary every month to count as her room and board expenses here.

The eldest uncle is the president of a bank in the province, because of the busy business, he almost goes on business trips all the year round, and he is not at home most of the time, so my sister spends more time with my aunt. At the beginning, her aunt took good care of her.

But people are not good for a thousand days, and flowers are not red for a hundred days, and in the end there is still a problem. Not long after the days of the hostess, the eldest aunt took off the false mask on her face and revealed her true face. She began to dislike her sister for being an inferior rural girl, so she found an excuse and sent Xiaohong's sister to her sister's house as a nanny behind her uncle's back. In this way, one is to solve the housework problem of relatives' family, and the other is to expel Xiaohong's sister from her house in disguise.

At that time, Sun Xiaohong's eldest aunt worked in the county, and when she heard about it, she angrily took a car to her uncle's house, took her sister from her uncle's house to the county seat, enrolled her in a cutting class, learned the craft of cutting with a beautiful female master, and later made pieces for a high-end boutique trouser store. She has lived by her aunt's side since she was fifteen years old. Now, she is still like her own daughter, living in the dormitory of the unit with her single aunt, although her life is monotonous, she can finally calm down, at least there are a lot less white eyes.

My sister is still in junior high school in other places, and her grades in school have always been very good, she is a good seedling, and the school focuses on cultivating her. There are dormitories and canteens in the school, so in order not to delay her studies, she eats and lives in the school. Right now, before the summer vacation is over, my sister went to school early. She is now preparing for the final sprint, and it is estimated that she will do well in the exam next year. In front of her sister, Sun Xiaohong, who was ashamed of herself, felt ashamed.

But when she thought of her two younger brothers, she was even more ashamed. The eldest brother was born thin and frail, and he was afraid that he would not be able to support his family in the future, so he brought two bottles of good wine, and invited him a bricklayer master in the village. In the past, in order to pay for tuition, she didn't even let go of her brother's hard-earned money. Now, I actually got such a result, it's really shameless.

And the youngest brother didn't even graduate from junior high school, so he went to work in the fields. He is the age of knowledge, but he and his parents get up early and work in the vegetable field every day, and there is no freedom at all.

What about Dad? He was silent all day. He often went alone to the ruins of the ancient city outside the village in foggy weather, stepping on the collapsed city wall, walking round and round. As a strong father, Sun Xiaohong will never understand how heavy his bearing and responsibility are.

Sun Xiaohong didn't know how much deep meaning there was in her father's silence. It was only when she listened to her father's usual chats with people that she knew something: Dad was born in the military, when he was young, he worked as an operator in the ground staff of the Air Force, and he had participated in some famous battles, and on the battlefield, the dual headphones commanded radar operations. One of the most glorious experiences of his life was eight years of overtime in the army. After changing jobs, he worked in the local forestry bureau. Later, because the construction of his hometown needed talents, his father gave up his superior working life and returned to the village to become a captain......
