Chapter 694: A chill down the spine
The chemical plant is also a 20-minute drive from the city, and I found that there are many people in the city who set up stalls, but most of them sell agricultural products.
Cabbage, radishes, potatoes are the most sold, and they are all stored by the peasants' own families, and they are sold in the market, and the price is not expensive.
The market was crowded with people, shouting and selling were endless, Zhou Qi saw that everything was fresh, and when he heard someone beating a drum at the other end, he took Jiang Yuzhu and plunged into the crowd to see the excitement.
There is opera in Henan Province, and there is also opera in Hebei Province.
The program that beats the drums at this end is the Drum Quick Book.
The so-called drum book is to play the characters and stories by beating the drum and the performers talking and singing.
The sound of drums drowned out the noise of the bazaar, and in a short time the performance venue was surrounded by water.
"dang, those who have money hold a money field, those who don't have money hold a personal field, one point or two points, just join in the fun..."
An old man walked around the crowd with a gong banged, followed by a man with a plate to collect money.
Most of the people in the crowd still watched the excitement, and there were no people like Zhou Qi who gave a dime directly at all.
Jiang Xinyu listened to it for a while and felt that there was nothing to see, and while shopping in the big market, she could hear what people were singing, so she simply took Xiaochuan to buy cotton shoes.
Chen Xiuyun went to the supply and marketing cooperatives across the street, but Zhou Shunyi didn't come today, so he gave Jiang Xinyu and the sisters ten yuan each.
There are cotton shoes sold on the street, these cotton shoes are quite peculiar, the wood sole, the bottom is not low, the upper is cotton, put on the foot, the bottom is very hard, but it is still warm.
I spent five cents to buy a pair for Xiaochuan, bought him a box of glass marbles, and bought a bunch of worthless handmade toys for my children by the way.
Chen Xiuyun was queuing up in the supply and marketing cooperative, Zhou Qi and Jiang Yuzhu were still watching the excitement in the crowd, and Jiang Xinyu found a place to squat on the side of the road to eat sugar gourds.
Xiao Chuan honestly squatted next to him, also holding a string of sugar gourds in his hand.
"Sister, my mother took me to find Xiaojun before."
He didn't mention it, Jiang Xinyu couldn't even remember who Xiaojun was.
She turned her head to look at him, "What's wrong with him?" ”
Xiao Chuan shook his head: "The uncle and aunt who took Xiao Jun away that year sent him back to the countryside, and we didn't see Xiao Jun that day." ”
Jiang Xinyu: "Why did you send it back to the countryside?" ”
As far as she knows, the conditions of several families who adopted Xiaochuan's younger brother are okay.
"That aunt gave birth to a younger brother again."
She turned her head to look at him carefully.
"So you're afraid that your mother will send you away if she gives birth?"
Ogawa shook his head, "I was scared before, but now I'm not afraid." ”
"Uncle Zhou said yesterday that he likes me and praises me for being sensible."
Jiang Xinyu looked at him and saw that he had a smile on his face, and there was no haze in his eyes.
"Mom is afraid that I will miss you, I always tell me that my sister's is my sister's, and what my sister gives her is also hers, mine depends on me to earn it myself when I grow up, I know that my mother is right, I am not biological, those do not belong to me in the first place, understand is one thing, but I always felt that I was an outsider at home."
The thirteen-year-old boy had a maturity on his face that did not match his age.
Jiang Xinyu's brows furrowed slightly, and soon calmed down again, she flicked his head, and the words she said were very unpleasant: "So you think it's unfair?" Because you feel like you're a son, everything in the family should be yours? If you don't give it to you, you treat you like an outsider? ”
She was deliberately provoking him.
She wanted to see what kind of words the precocious teenager would be forced to say by saying this.
The young man's eyes instantly filled with tears, "How can you say that about me?" Am I such a bad person? ”
Jiang Xinyu: "Then why are you talking to me about this?" If you are afraid that your mother will not want you, I can assure you that she will not do anything to abandon you, whether she has children or not, she will always take you with you, or wherever she goes. What are you worried about? Mom, what did you do to you, you didn't know what to do? ”
From the village to the city, and then from the city to the chemical factories in other provinces, Chen Xiuyun never abandoned him.
Her mother has done it this far, why is this kid still so sensitive? Is it because her mom is pregnant? Because the small army was sent to the countryside?
She is not a party to Ogawa, and she can't empathize with him.
Ogawa clenched his fists, snot running down his mouth, and looked at her with red eyes.
Jiang Xinyu was inexplicable, I didn't know what was wrong with him.
"If you have anything to say, why are you crying?"
He still didn't speak, and turned his head away with red eyes.
To be honest, after all, I haven't gotten along with Xiaochuan in the past few years, and Jiang Xinyu is actually not much close to him.
Although he also has something to send home every time, but that's just in passing, and if you want to say how much emotion there is, it's really not.
"What do you want to do for your little army? Want him to go to town and return to his adoptive parents? ”
Xiaochuan: "Auntie said that he was at his grandparents' house, and he went to school in the village, and he would be taken back when he was in junior high school, and I couldn't help him." ”
Jiang Xinyu stopped talking, eating sugar gourd and quietly listening to him cry.
She didn't know how tangled the teenager was right now.
After a while, the crying stopped, and she pulled a tissue out of her bag and handed it to him.
Xiao Chuan blew his nose fiercely, "Sister Xinyu, I have a mistake to admit to you. ”
Jiang Xinyu nodded: "You say." ”
After waiting for him to speak, she looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Why don't you say it? ”
She thought he was going to tell her that she shouldn't have those thoughts, but she didn't expect to hear something that made her shiver instantly...
Xiaochuan didn't dare to look at her: "I deliberately threw water on the stairs before, hoping that my mother would fall..."
"I'm afraid she'll send me away if she gives birth."
He hung his head, "Tell Mom, I don't dare to tell her myself." ”
If he said it, he was afraid that he would be sent back, if he didn't say it, no one would ever know this secret, but he had nightmares every day at night, in which his fucking stomach was bleeding, and Uncle Zhou scolded him for being a white-eyed wolf...
He knew what he was facing when he spoke out, but Uncle Zhou said yesterday that he liked him very much, and his mother always thought he was sensible, maybe they would forgive him.
Jiang Xinyu didn't say anything for a long time.
No wonder he laid a bunch of foreshadowing before, she didn't know what he wanted to say, and now he directly gave her a big one.
You said that he was honest and sincerely realized his mistakes, but she had goosebumps because of his words.
With a sigh of relief, she said seriously: "You must not do anything like that again in the future, if your mother falls down when she has a big belly, it is very likely that she will die twice, so where did you learn it?" ”
Taken by her sharp eyes, he clenched his hands and lowered his head and said, "My own mother used to fall on the ice with a big belly and slipped, and my brother is gone." ”
Jiang Xinyu's face was not good-looking: "Your own mother has a miscarriage is already considered her luck, if she is unlucky, except for that child, even with your own mother will have an accident!" ”
I'm quite good at applying what I've learned.
