C823 Birthday(1)
I'm in first class in the front row, with only four seats in a row on either side of the corner.
After a series of bumps, the plane rose to the designated altitude and finally calmed down.
Sitting beside me is a black foreigner who is as big as the ball star O'Neal. Just as he sits down, he takes out some things to eat and his eating posture is very ugly.
I can't help but cast my gaze outside the window to admire the night view outside.
In the dark sky, the stars are twinkling.
I suddenly remembered that today was my birthday, and the image of my childhood surfaced in my mind -
In the harsh winter, the sky was filled with fine droplets of rain. The wet and slippery mud road was stepped on and turned into uneven mud pits, and the mud pits were filled with rain.
Our house is about ten kilometers away from our aunt's house.
A small road between the fields led to the city, and on both sides of the road were pieces of farmland that had been plowed. The farmlands are filled with clear water. The light rain sprinkles on the surface of the water, creating small waves. The cold wind blew on the surface of the water, forming layers of waves. The waves kept hitting the ridges of the paddy field.
We walked on the paddy path with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
I wore a pair of tattered cloth shoes, and my feet were exposed. My feet were covered with frostbite, and there were countless wounds on the frostbite. The wounds have been festered and swollen like a ripe persimmon. A disgusting and dry liquid flowed out of the wound, mixed with traces of blood.
A pair of patched-up pants was on my waist. My pants were shorter, so they could only cover my calves. My exposed legs were shivering from the cold.
I was wearing a tattered cotton coat, and the patches on it were like a map stuck to it. Some places had small holes, and white cotton was exposed from within, like the city marks on the map.
My entire body was shivering from the cold, and the teeth in my mouth were biting so hard that they made squeaking sounds. My mouth kept trembling, and my lips turned purple. My face turned green.
Looking at my pitiful appearance, a line of hot tears flowed down from the corner of my mother's eyes -
In order to deal with my father's funeral and provide for me to go to school, we only rely on wild vegetables and corn paste to live our days. Our food and clothing are problems, so how could my mother have the money to buy clothes, shoes, and even umbrellas? !
Nanhua City is the capital of South Hua Province, the economic, cultural, and trade center of South Hua Province.
Aunt's house was located at the Mi City Dam in the east outskirts of Nanhua City.
I heard that Zhu Meiling was the young man who was released from this city to our village. I keep feeling that Meiling is in a corner of this city.
Even though the weather is cold and my frozen feet have become numb, but when I think of Meiling's beautiful face and her beautiful body, my footsteps become very light and swift.
I breathed out hot air from my mouth and my head actually pretended to be thin beads of sweat.
"Can you run slower?" My mother followed behind me, panting, and complained, "You're like a killing machine, are you trying to tire me to death?"
"Mom, let me help you carry the things."
I turned around and smiled at my mother. I snatched the basket from my mother's hands. However, because I was in a hurry, I accidentally slipped and fell to the ground.
The eggs in the basket fell to the ground and shattered. The eggshells, egg yolk, and egg white were scattered all over the muddy road.
These eggs were saved up by my mother like treasures. We were usually reluctant to eat them, but they were broken by me like this. It really made my mother feel a little heartache.
I knew that I had encountered a huge disaster, so I hurriedly got up from the ground. My mother looked at the rotten eggs on the ground in pain, pointed at my nose, and scolded loudly:
"You daredevil, I told you to run slower. You didn't believe me. Look, a good basket of eggs was broken by you. What do you want me to give to your aunt?"
I also had good intentions. I didn't expect that my good intentions would do something wrong and make a fool of myself.
I fell quite heavily. I felt a lot of pain and my whole body was covered with mud. My mother didn't say anything to comfort me. Instead, she felt heartache for her eggs. I was indeed a little angry.
I pointed at the old hen in her hand and said discontentedly, "Don't you have another chicken in your hand?"0
"You did something wrong and you still dare to talk back?" My mother stared at my face and said, "You are becoming more and more outrageous. If it wasn't for your birthday, I would have slapped you!"
Seeing that my mother was really angry, I hurriedly apologized, "Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose."
"I know you didn't do it on purpose. I wanted to tell you that you must be careful when doing things in the future. Don't be too reckless. Otherwise, you will suffer a great loss." My mother's tone eased up a lot.
I hurriedly replied, "I know, Mother. Don't worry. I won't be like this anymore."
"Did the fall hurt?" My mother asked with concern. She touched my head and looked at my face. Her gaze became gentle and her eyes were filled with motherly love.
"No... No..." I gritted my teeth and shook my head.
"Then let's hurry up and leave. Otherwise, your aunt and the others won't be able to wait any longer." Mother helped me wipe the mud off my body. She held my hand and stepped on the muddy road as she carefully walked towards Nanhua City.
When my mother and I walked dozens of kilometers on foot and appeared in front of my aunt's house, it was already noon.
My aunt's house was filled with guests. All of them were dressed in clean clothes. My aunt and uncle were sitting on stools and chatting with them.
The guests were all laughing and joking. When they saw us standing under the roof, they all looked at us curiously.
"Sis, why are you guys here just now?" After the aunt greeted her mother, she saw that my clothes were tattered and covered in mud. She went forward and held my hand and asked, "Xiangyang, what's wrong with you?"
My face was red and I lowered my head, embarrassed to speak.
Mother placed the big hen in her hand on the ground and helped me out of the predicament. She said, "On the way to your house, due to the slippery ground, he accidentally fell!"
For the sake of my face, Mother didn't tell me that I broke a basket of eggs along the way.
Seeing our sorry state, Uncle walked over and looked at us with a pair of cold eyes. He said to Mother:
"Big Sister, go wash your face first, then ask your sister to find a clean set of clothes for Xiangyang to change into. Then, come with us to celebrate the birthday of the two children..."
My mother didn't say anything. I looked up and suddenly saw a familiar face among the guests. She was looking at me disdainfully.
She is my cousin, Ye Shan, a slim and graceful, pure and cute little girl...
A pair of long and slender eyebrows, a pair of clear eyes, a straight nose bridge, a delicate cherry lips, and a beautiful and fragrant cheeks perfectly gathered on her extraordinary pink face.
She is wearing the most fashionable female military uniform and a pair of large-headed leather shoes. Her jet black and smooth hair was tied into two nimble ponytails, looking valiant and valiant. She was as noble as Snow White. She was so beautiful that she looked like a movie star.
I saw Ye Shan looking at me with a pair of cold eyes and then look at my attire. It was very different from the clothes of everyone here. It was totally out of place and I felt a little ashamed of myself.
