This Qiao Xiaojing hid in fear for half a night, and the high mental tension consumed too much of her energy, and she didn't know how long it took for her to fall asleep.
It didn't take long for Qiao Xiaojing to fall into the entanglement of nightmares--- in which she landed alone in a windowless, dimly lit hut for no reason, and could vaguely see the four walls, but she couldn't see the door to get out.
Qiao Xiaojing timidly peeked around, and in the blink of an eye, she saw the four walls of the front and back, the left and right sides squeezing towards her, and the roof and the ground were also moving closer together, she first waved her arms frantically, trying to drive them away like a mosquito.
When all kinds of attempts failed, when Qiao Xiaojing found that her efforts were to no avail, she stretched out her slender arms and stretched out her slightly bent legs, trying to resist the moving walls and roofs with her own strength, but unfortunately, the solid and cold walls and roofs not only did not stop, but moved faster and faster, and finally she disappeared into them.
Qiao Xiaojing walked through the cold cement and wooden frame, no matter how she walked, she couldn't see the exit, she looked back in disappointment, but she couldn't see the way she came, she was helpless to find her way in it. Suddenly, she heard the chanting: "If you want to cross the Yellow River and the ice and the river, you will climb the snow and dark sky in Taihang." Idle fishing sit on the stream, and suddenly take a boat to dream of the sun. The road is difficult, the road is difficult, the road is divergent, and today it is safe in the ......"
The voice seemed to be very close, but it seemed to be far away, Qiao Xiaojing listened attentively, only heard the sound echoing around her, but she couldn't see the person chanting, so she shouted loudly: "Who is around, please help me, help me, I am surrounded by this cement and wooden frame, I can't get out, please help me out......"
Qiao Xiaojing, who was asleep, shouted hoarsely, and when she was desperately pulling her hair and hopelessly hitting the wall, she woke up. She was covered in sweat, and not only did the sweat wet the pillow, but even the bedding felt like it had been washed.
Qiao Xiaojing gasped, slowly sat up straight, curled her legs, her chin rested on her knees, and looked at the dark dormitory with a dull expression, looking at the blurred walls and floor......
At night, Qiaojia Village was lit up one after another, and the pale yellow light reflected this dilapidated village, and a few dog barks from time to time, making this Qiaojia Village look particularly quiet.
The haggard Chunhua walked into the kitchen with tears in her eyes and sighed, and then began to prepare dinner.
When dinner was ready, it was brought to the wooden table in the main house, Liu Ma squinted at the spring flower, got down from the kang, sat on the dining table without a sound, just ate a few bites, wiped his mouth with his hand, stood up, didn't say a word, put his hand behind his back and walked out of the main house, and left the house.
Not long after, this Liu Ma came to the loess road in the village, and the red apricot in the west of the village has regained its former glory, and is standing leisurely on the side of the road knocking melon seeds, and the two people will look up at each other from time to time.
Liu Ma walked around the village for a while, the sky was much darker, and he couldn't see a villager left and right, so he slowly walked towards Hongxing's house, Hongxing saw Liu Ma coming, so he lowered his head and entered the yard with a smile.
When Liu Ma went to the root of the back wall of Hongxing's house, Hongxing's house turned on the lights, and the light sprinkled in the yard in front of Liu Ma's eyes.
After a few moments, the lights of Hongxing's house went out, and everything fell silent.
And her mother Chunhua stacked the rice bowls on the kitchen board, sat on the kitchen threshold with the light on, and kept sighing......
Life goes on like this, day by day, cold and tasteless.
Soon the summer vacation ended, many students returned to school, and for a while the school was lively, those carefree children were full of bright smiles on their faces, playing and playing on campus, happy and enviable, they did what they wanted to do one by one, this atmosphere broke Qiao Xiaojing's slightly lonely and peaceful life.
The students are different and different, many of them don't want to learn but love to be funny, there is no lack of people who are impatient with loneliness and like to be active, and there are also girls who stay among boys all day long and don't want others to say tomboys, and there are many students who don't even know what they are doing, but they are just jumping around like an evil spirit.
In the face of everything in front of her, Qiao Xiaojing, who had not yet come out of the shadow of pain, only lamented, still living within the line of defense set by herself, she didn't want to have anything to do with the outside world, and she couldn't even look at the scene outside, in order to protect herself, she actually pasted layers of newspapers on the window pane, worried that the outside world would discover her existence.
Either Qiao Xiaojing simply lives in the small circle that she thinks belongs to her, after all, she has reached the time of graduating from high school, there is no doubt about this, her time in this school is even longer than some of her substitute teachers.
Many times, due to the large number of children who have dropped out of school, in order to retain students and generate more income, schools usually do not pay much attention to children's grades, and do not pay attention to the cultivation of children's interests and ability to improve, focusing on how long children can be in school.
Because of this, Qiao Xiaojing can go to school, and she is also the object that the school likes to accept very much, she has basically completed all the learning tasks of all grades in this school, and of course, she is about to finish all the courses set by the school.
From the first day she entered this school, Qiao Xiaojing lived in the current dormitory, which is her second home, where she always feels at ease and relaxed, and now it has become a fortress for self-protection.
From time to time, there was a crisp and lively noise outside the house, and Qiao Xiaojing was always in the house.
After a while, the laughter and laughter of the outside world finally seeped into Qiao Xiaojing's cold and damp hut. Although Qiao Xiaojing was still hovering in the shadow of bad luck, her frozen heart gradually began to melt, and her cold and self-defeating demeanor was gradually diluted. It's clear that her mindset has changed and is changing for the better.
Living in school without relatives and for no reason, the helplessness and embarrassment are not only felt by Xiaojing herself, she believes that Principal Yan can feel it, and other teachers can also feel it.
There has been a lot of discussion behind the scenes, and there is everything to say, of course, it does not exclude those precocious children who like to talk nonsense.
"What the hell should I do now? It's impossible to continue going to school, where does the school money come from? This school won't educate me for free, let alone raise an idler like this. If I want to go back to the home that has broken my heart, I would rather die than send myself to the devil's cave again......" Recently, Qiao Xiaojing kept thinking about these questions.
Qiao Xiaojing leaned on the edge of the window that had been pasted with several layers of paper, a little orange light sprinkled on her earthy face, her eyebrows were tightly locked, and her eyes were dull, but anyone who witnessed this scene believed that they would definitely feel extremely sad.
"I'm still young, and the road of life is still very long, I won't bow to bad luck like this, I firmly believe that there will always be a day when the peaks and loops will turn!" Qiao Xiaojing looked out the window, looking at the light and breezy sky, and secretly made up her mind, but the cold reality was in front of her, and she couldn't help but shed tears, "However, what should I do now, where can I survive?"
Qiao Xiaojing lived like this, and these questions surfaced in her mind almost all the time, disturbing her unstable......
Since her daughter ran away from home, as a mother, Chunhua is like the sky has fallen, and she looks like she is not giving up all day long, standing at the gate at every turn, her bloodshot eyes are dry and looking around, looking forward to her Xiaojing being able to suddenly appear in front of her, of course, every time it ends in failure, gradually, this expectation has become a habit of life for her mother Chunhua.
And Liu Ma, who is not as good as a beast, is as if nothing has happened, he still lives freely every day, and he can do whatever he wants, not to mention considering Xiaojing's life and death, he doesn't even have the heart to say a word to his woman Chunhua, and his favorite thing to do is to go out at night, and lie on the kang of the red apricot.
The disheartened Chunhua seems to have forgotten that she still has a man, the heartbroken husband. When they are together, they are like "animals" that have lost the ability to communicate emotionally, meeting, eating, and even sleeping are like routines, and they don't expect good or bad, nor think about morning and evening.
Liu Ma's life is still full of stories, and it is strange that no one in the village talked about Liu Ma's romance, even if it has made a lot of waves in the village, only Xue Laohan, who is regarded as a madman, will talk to himself a few times from time to time:
"Pheasants crow, chickens jump, go out at night, fool around, don't look for babies, don't care about home, only climb on other people's kang; pheasants crow, chickens jump, go out at night, fool around, don't look for babies, don't care about home, only climb on other people's kang......"
"What an old and unserious ......" At first, the women in the village would glance at him with disdain when they heard Xue Laohan's words.
Many men would grin, shake their heads, and sigh in their hearts, this old man began to talk nonsense, and it seemed that his mind was getting less and less clear......
Over time, no one paid attention to the words of this "crazy old man", but the ignorant children picked up these few words, and shouted through the streets, singing them as children's songs.
Mother Chunhua's heart has already run away with her daughter, at least after her daughter ran away from home in that humiliating way, she doesn't care about anything, she doesn't care about Liu Ma who doesn't return at night, and she doesn't care about what the child sings in her mouth, she just looks into the distance unkempt, and she may not even know what she is looking at.
Qiao Baocai, the patriarch of the Qiao clan, whenever he saw Chunhua, who was getting thinner and thinner, and was already a little like a dried corpse, he would turn his head early and leave in another direction, trying to avoid greeting--- of course, he still knew in his heart why Chunhua became like this.
After a period of hibernation, this Qiao Baocai has figured out for a lot of time, it was Liu Ma, the guy who picked up rags, who made him lose the opportunity to continue to make mistakes, and it was Liu Ma who saved him before he became a villager and the laughing stock of Qiao's descendants, so that he could appear in front of everyone as an innocent and upright patriarch, and no longer have to worry about being poked in the back from behind......
Every time he thought of this, Qiao Baocai would be excited, and his face would be full of joy.
Therefore, when this Qiao Baocai saw Liu Ma, he became enthusiastic, and sometimes chatted a few words.
