Chapter 17: A Heavy Heart

Yue Chi couldn't help but think of his childhood after listening to Jing'er's story, compared to what happened to Jing'er, he at least had a mother to love.

Jing'er is naturally beautiful, intelligent and clever, she is as sensible as an adult. Her adoptive mother wouldn't let her eat, she wouldn't let her sleep in bed, she hid in the firewood room every day, and she had to take care of a few sheep in the sheepfold.

In the moonlight, two people talked about each other's thoughts on the hillside. Yue Chi's biggest weakness is that he is kind-hearted and can't tolerate others being wronged. He looked at Jing'er's curled up little body, wrapped in an old cloth robe, and tears flowed from his eyes.

"Jing'er, can you give you a gift from my big brother?" Yue Chi accepted the sour mood and said to Jing'er with a smile.

Jing'er raised her little face, her eyes blinked in surprise, her dark eyes were shining, she looked at Yue Chi mischievously and asked, "Big brother, what is it?" ”

Yue Chi took out a delicate small box from his arms, and the box contained a smart watch, which was pink.

"Come, Jing'er gave it to you, I'll help you put it on, it's safe to wear it, send me a message when you encounter difficulties, my brother will make you carefree, the only thing you remember to charge is ah!"

Jing'er grinned, her shy look was really cute, she stretched out her slender arm and turned her face away, Yue Chi shook her head with a smile, and gently put the smart watch on Jing'er's wrist and said:

"Jing'er, this is to thank you for saving your life that day, from now on, you will be my sister, and I will be your brother, okay?"

"Okay, hehe... I like it so much~" Jing'er looked at her watch and said happily.

One word for you, one word for me...... tirelessly chatting happily......

As the moon went west, the roosters crowed on the hills, and they passed through the night.

Jing'er came home and received a message from her eldest brother,

"In the afternoon, the old place will not be scattered, and there is a gift that must be given to my sister, because tomorrow my brother will return to Xinjiang, which is a very distant place."

"Okay, big brother, remember." Jing'er replied with a grin.

In the afternoon, when the sun was still abundant, they came to the top of the hill, where they had spent the night.

Yue Chi specially bought a set of clothes and a pair of shoes for Jing'er, she took the package in his hand, and Jing'er suddenly burst into tears......

In addition to the love given by her father, this is the first time Jing'er feels the warmth, and she is really moved.

Over the years, Jing'er has never worn new clothes, either from neighbors, donated by classmates, or sewing and mending year after year.

This time, Yue Chi saw that Jing'er didn't stay for long, so he left in a hurry after a few words.

Jing'er was full of joy, feeling the warmth given to her by her big brother, her heart couldn't be calm for a long time, and her face was full of happy joy.

Yue Chi looked at the scenery outside the window, staring at this beautiful scenery, the car swaying slightly, the people on the car talked and laughed, this bus, from this beautiful fairy mountain village slowly turned to the bustling urban area.

Everyone has unforgettable experiences, but not everyone has a despairing, beautiful and unbearable memory, which is an unforgettable feeling.

In the Mid-Autumn Festival of 2005, Yue Chi returned to his hometown of Yili.

Yue Chi dragged a suitcase and a bulging backpack on his back and walked out of the Yili Passenger Station.

On the 14th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the sky is dark. A nearly round moon hung high, the sky was cloudless, and the bright moonlight soaked Yue Chi, who had just left the station, with a hint of chill.

Yue Chi's home is in the remote countryside, where he grew up, and now the home is empty, the yard is overgrown with weeds, and the red double gate has long been rusted.

After returning home, Yue Chi cleaned up the house and cleaned the yard, and it took a while of busy work to look good.

The fifteenth moon was very round, and the white moonlight was spread on the quilt covered by Yue Chi through the window screen, and it was difficult to sleep, so he took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and sent a message to Jing'er, "Sister Jing'er, are you okay?" ”

Jing'er came home from school and went to the mountains to herd sheep as usual, but when she came back after herding the sheep, she found that one was missing. The adoptive mother yelled at her to go and get the lost lamb back, and if she couldn't find it, no one would come back!

It was already dark when Jing'er carried the little lamb home, the shadows of the roadside trees in the alley swayed slightly, the bright moonlight was covered by the leaves, and the path was still dark, except for a few faint dog barks in the distance, and the birds were silent, falling into silence......

The breeze is blowing, Jing'er walks unhurriedly, she is used to such nights, she is not afraid of the darkness of the night, she is still calm and natural......

When Jing'er walked halfway down the road, there were three big black dogs squatting not far away, their blue eyes bursting with cannibalistic light, staring fiercely at Jing'er who had just arrived, and the little lamb that Jing'er was holding in her arms.

Jing'er was frightened into a cold sweat when she saw this, her back was cold, her legs were weak and she could barely stand, she took a step back, and the three fierce big black dogs snorted and approached Jing'er, Jing'er was so frightened that she couldn't move, and she didn't dare to make a sound holding the lamb......

First a dog barked, then three dogs barked together, the sound sounded fierce and terrifying, and then the three vicious dogs were on the verge of bursting out, rushing towards Jing'er like a chain of arrows off the string......

Jing'er didn't dodge, she closed her eyes while protecting the lamb, she thought to herself, this is over! Jing'er panicked, her legs fell down, and when the vicious dog was about to touch Jing'er, Jing'er's smart watch screen suddenly lit up, and accompanied by the ringing of the bell, the three dogs immediately turned around and ran away without a trace.

Jing'er was saved, her frightened little heart slowly calmed down, and she happily looked through the news, it was Yue Chi who sent it to her, "Sister Jing'er, are you okay?" ”

Jing'er grinned and replied, "Big brother, you're so timely, I'm fine!" She was glad that she was not violated by the dogs, all because she met the kindness of her big brother. Yue Chi also promised Jing'er that if he had difficulty finding him, he would do so.

In Jing'er's mind, the eldest brother is the best person for her now, giving Jing'er confidence and hope deep down.

Yue Chi sent a message to Jing'er, "Jing'er, take care of yourself, my brother is going to sleep, you should rest early!" He didn't know what Jing'er had been through, and she hadn't told him what she had been through.

After several days of continuous rain and rain, the once clear river turned into a crazy mud dragon, and the roar of the cow-like water roared in Yue Chi's ears day and night.

Since Yue Chi's home was built on the riverside, he only had to open the nailed back window to see the magnificent turbulent current, and several peasant families on the other side of the river had to be arranged by the township to live in the village committee because of the low terrain and the flooding of their houses.

A few cherry trees behind Yue Chi's house were also flooded so that only a little green leaf was left floating on the water, and there was no place to go on this kind of day, so Yue Chi had to sit and wait for the stagnant water to slowly disappear......
