Chapter 14: The Second Aunt
After my mother slapped me, my father also rushed over, grabbed my mother's shoulder with a nervous face, and anxiously asked my mother how she was.
I didn't use much strength at all, and even if my mother touched the coffin, it couldn't be serious.
But she screamed, as if the child had been knocked off by me, and the village doctor showed it to her mother on the spot, saying that it was all right, but she still glared at me with resentful eyes.
Say I did it on purpose, say I wanted to kill her son.
"I didn't." I gritted my back molars in response.
"Mom, how could Xiao Xi be deliberate, she's just a child?" My sister also opened her mouth to speak for me, but after being glared at by my mother, she immediately stopped.
"She's wild, she doesn't have any rules, I shouldn't have given birth to her in the first place." My mother stared at me angrily, her eyes red like a hungry wolf.
From this moment, I felt that maybe in this life, I couldn't really get her love, she hated me, and I couldn't find the slightest flesh and blood affection in those eyes.
"Look at it, this dead girl is still glaring at me, I worked hard as a mother to give birth to her, and she still stares at me like this? What a wickedness! The mother cried.
I bit my lip tightly, and when my grandfather saw that this was about to turn into a farce, he hurried up to me and asked me to apologize to my mother.
"You dead girl, you are really spoiled by your grandma, if your grandfather doesn't educate you well today, you really don't know how thick the sky is." When my grandfather saw that I was still silent, he probably felt that I didn't give him face in front of so many people, so he planned to teach me a lesson.
It's just that he was stopped by a scolding sound outside the door just as he raised his hand.
"I see, who dares to touch my rhino girl today!"
Everyone looked towards the door of the hall when they heard this full of energy, and saw an old lady with gray hair, dressed in a white coarse cloth and holding a black cat in her arms.
I, who had been patient, burst into tears in an instant, as if I saw my dearest person.
"Second aunt and grandma!" I screamed and rushed over.
The second aunt handed the black cat to the man behind her, and then gently hugged me: "My poor rhino girl, don't be afraid, there is a second aunt and grandmother, see who dares to touch you!" ”
After the second aunt said that, she looked around the living room with extremely sharp eyes.
The uncles in the village all knew the second aunt, because the second aunt was the first person to drive a car into the village, and it was also the second aunt who donated money to the village to build the road, she was the "hero" of the village, and even the village chief had to laugh when he saw her.
"Oh, it turned out that her second aunt was here, didn't she say tomorrow, why did this arrive today." Grandpa graciously invited the second aunt and grandmother in.
The second aunt walked in front of the grandmother, her eyes couldn't help but be a little moist, and she muttered to herself: "My old sister, don't you give up this child, why don't you still leave, and you don't wait for my sister to come back to see you for the last time." ”
"Second sister, people can't be resurrected after death, don't be sad, I have already prepared a room for you." Grandpa said to the second aunt with a flattering smile.
The second aunt frowned when she heard this: "You don't have to prepare, I want to share a room with the rhino girl." ”
"But, Xiao Xi is living with Laidi now, what is the bed?" Grandpa looked embarrassed and looked at his mother.
The mother immediately pushed her sister in front of the second aunt and said, "Second aunt, this is Laidi, my third daughter, Laidi quickly call the second aunt." ”
"Second aunt." My sister screamed reluctantly.
This is not because my sister hates the second aunt, but because she resists her mother's practice of wanting her to catch the golden beetle through the second aunt.
The second aunt nodded at my sister, then took my hand and said, "In previous years, I came to live with the rhino girl, and this year, it is the same. ”
The second aunt said, and pulled me towards the room, she has been to our house many times, and she is also familiar with the road, as soon as she pulled me into the house, she immediately hugged me into her arms.
Her arms were warm, and she hugged me for a long time before letting me go.
stared into my eyes, and said to me very seriously: "The rhino girl will wait for your grandmother's funeral to be completed, and then go to live in the city with the second aunt, and the second aunt will take good care of you." ”
"Nope." Although I also have a deep relationship with my second aunt, and I know that she loves me, my grandmother said before that I can't leave the village.
"Why? Could it be that the second aunt treats you badly? The second aunt was a little excited.
I hurriedly explained the reason to the second aunt, and when the second aunt heard it, her brows frowned, and she said that her grandmother was confused.
"Your grandma, I won't talk about burying your whole life in this poor country, she really wants to destroy your life here?" The second aunt looked at me distressedly and shook her head vigorously.
Then, as if thinking of something, he opened the door and said to the black-clothed uncle who was already standing outside the door, "Give me the sunspot." ”
The black-clothed uncle immediately took the black cat in both hands and sent it to the arms of the second aunt, this black cat can be said to be the lifeblood of the second aunt, and it was also personally selected by the grandmother to give it to her.
Every time he came here, Kuroko was lying quietly in the arms of his second aunt, very docile.
"Come and get close to Kuroko, get close, later?" The second aunt stroked Kuroko's head and stopped talking.
I hugged Kuroko, who looked up and looked at me with those jewel-like eyes, and then lay still again.
"Looks like it's related to you." The second aunt finally showed a smile, but there were still a lot of sorrows hidden in this smile that I couldn't understand.
The second aunt talked a lot to me in the house, and when it was time to finish eating, my mother personally came over and invited the second aunt to go out to eat with everyone.
The second aunt said that she was tired and didn't want to eat anything, and I knew that in this family, only me and the second aunt were really sad and sad.
My sister had dinner and brought us food, and my mother took the opportunity to enter my room.
It can be seen that she really wants to be close to the second aunt, but the second aunt looks very disdainful of her mother.
She has a very good relationship with her grandmother, and her mother is an unfilial daughter in the eyes of her second aunt, and the second aunt naturally will not give her mother a good look.
The mother probably knew it in her heart, but she still said closely: "Second aunt, look at it, how about we come to Di?" ”
"It's a handsome girl." The second aunt glanced at her sister and said indifferently.
My sister lowered her head, didn't say a word, and twisted the corners of her clothes desperately with both hands.
"Second aunt, it's not me boasting, my family's appearance is unique, and there are few people in the town who can compare with Laidi." Mother said, a look of pride.
"Hmm." The second aunt responded perfunctorily.
The mother continued: "Then, second aunt, take a look, this Laidi will be eighteen soon, and it is time to find someone else, you are an aunt and grandmother, I don't know if there is a suitable one for us to find a good family." ”
"In the past, it was time to get married and have children, but now it's a new era, and they are still children at the age of eighteen, and they are all going to school. The second aunt's words directly poked into my sister's heart.
Mother hurriedly nodded: "Willing, willing, as long as?" ”
"I don't want to, I want to go to college, so I don't want to get married." The sister didn't wait for her mother to finish speaking, so she interrupted directly.
The second aunt squinted her eyes slightly, and waved her hand at her mother: "Since your daughter is still unwilling, then don't force it, they are catching up with the good times, don't they all say that knowledge changes fate?" Let her go to school. ”
"What kind of books does a girl read, marrying a good family is the most important thing." The mother was a little breathless, and turned around and glared at her sister viciously.
But the second aunt smiled coldly: "Didn't you also force your mother to sell blood for you to study?" Why is it said that reading is not important now? Xiaoxia, you are my sister's only child, I should love you, but are these things you have done all these years done by people? Look, your mom has died, what are you wearing? ”
The second aunt pointed to her mother's pink coat and shook her head again and again, her mother wanted to explain, but the second aunt didn't give her mother a chance at all, she waved her hand, saying that she was tired, and "invited" her mother out of the room.
Mother sighed, but looked at me and winked at me.
I remembered what had happened at noon, and before I got up to go out with her, she came and dragged me out of the door with my sister.
Because the uncle who came with my second aunt was still standing at the door, my mother could only lead me and my sister to the backyard.
"Smack!"
As soon as she arrived in the backyard, her mother raised her hand and slapped her sister fiercely, and the corners of her sister's mouth instantly flowed blood.
"What are you doing?" I asked, glaring at her.
My sister seems to have become accustomed to it, and she won't even resist.
"Little rhino, your sister said the wrong thing, Mom is teaching her a lesson." The mother stared at her sister as she spoke.
It was the first time she called my name, but, for some reason, I wasn't as happy as I thought, but felt disgusting.
"Lin Laidi, I warn you, even if you don't get married, don't want to continue studying, so, go and get acquainted with that old woman, and Xiaoxi, my mother can see that the second aunt likes you, so you can help your sister say more good things, and you also hope that your sister will live well in the future?" My mother smiled at me.
This smile gave me goosebumps all over my body.
My sister grabbed the corner of her clothes tightly and didn't speak, but her mother gently stroked her belly, saying that she had said everything that should be said, and it was up to my sister to go in the future.
After my mother finished speaking, she turned around and left, leaving behind my sister who was constantly sobbing in the cold wind, and I who was already disappointed, this is my mother?
