Spend Summer Chapter 30
byXiaowan!Xiaowan!Yes…
The best thing about Chuzhou No. 2 Middle School is that after the sports meeting, you can go home and rest for half a day, and everyone is reluctant to leave.
Shen Wan and Ji Zhao walked together, wandering slowly in every corner of the school.
The red maple trees on the central avenue are still lush and leafy, blocking the sun.
Ji Zhao stretched out his arms in front and walked unsteadily, while Shen Wan followed behind and watched tenderly.
The ground is covered with fiery red maple leaves, covering the entire central avenue.
Ji Zhao knelt down and picked up a red maple leaf, covering his right eye.
She turned to look at Shen Wan with a smile, “Wanwan, do you think this maple leaf looks like your hand?”
Shen Wan was curious about her strange thoughts, and she looked at them carefully for a while.
The bright red maple leaves made her even more dazzling, and the curved corners of her eyes were like the most beautiful crescent moon in the sky.
Shen Wan nodded gently and replied, “It does look like it.”
Ji Zhao chuckled, put one hand behind his back, and shook the maple leaf with the other, making small jumps and jumps, and said in a raised tone, “I’ll tell you!”
Shen Wan looked gentle and ran a few steps to catch up with her, walking side by side with her.
As the sun sets, the entire sky in Chuzhou seems to be covered with ink paintings of intense colors, fiery red, orange…
Echoing the maple leaves on the central avenue, it seems to be happiness for the two of them.
–
The time after that remained the same, except that I started taking competitive classes again during evening self-study.
But this time only Shen Wan and Ji Zhao were left. The finals were brutal and they had to be ranked at the top of the province and city to participate.
Shen Wan was undoubtedly the first, but Ji Zhao was ranked slightly lower and was originally unable to participate.
But fortunately, there were two more places in the province and city, so Ji Zhao was able to participate.
.
The Double Ninth Festival, which falls on September 9th of the lunar calendar, is an important day for Chinese people to worship their ancestors.
The school humanely gave everyone a day off.
Shen Wan rarely went to work and stayed at home.
She stayed up all night, the curtains tightly blocked the sunlight, and the room was dark.
Shen Wan leaned against the corner of the bed and rubbed the photo with her fingers. The woman in the photo had a bright smile, but she was always frozen in the photo.
Shen Wan lowered his head and looked at the woman in the photo quietly, but his eyes were filled with dazzling red.
In a daze, she seemed to be back to that day again.
Little Shen Wan ran up the stairs happily. At that time, there was still light at the top of the stairs, which was warm.
The house was also lit with golden lights and was decorated very warmly.
Little Shen Wan opened the door carefully, and when she saw that Shen Jianye was no longer around, she patted her belly with her little hands and ran in quickly.
There was a woman standing in the kitchen with messy hair, flipping a shovel with one hand and answering the phone with the other.
“What? Are you gambling again?! Okay, okay, I understand. I’ll be there later.”
Although her hair was messy and her face was haggard from hard work, it was not difficult to tell that she was a very beautiful woman.
Little Shen Wan rushed over and hugged her thigh, speaking excitedly, “Mom, I made a friend today!”
The woman quickly hung up the phone, turned around, hugged Xiao Shen Wan with a smile, and coaxed, “Xiao Wan has made a friend! Our Xiao Wan is really awesome! Mom is so proud!”
Little Shen Wan couldn’t help but feel shy, and raised the corners of her mouth shyly.
The woman turned off the gas, put the rice out of the pot, and dragged the pendant on her leg to the small bedroom.
Putting the food on the small table, the woman knelt down and touched Xiao Shen Wan’s hair, speaking softly, “Xiao Wan, mommy is going out, please remember to lock the door.”
Little Shen Wan’s happy head drooped, her eyes full of disappointment, but she immediately changed to a happy look and raised her eyes, “Mom, can you have something to eat before you go? I will take care of myself.”
But at such a young age, what could she hide? The woman saw through Xiao Shen Wan’s disappointment, sighed in her heart, and coaxed, “Xiao Wan is so sensible and knows how to care about her mother, so mother will eat a little.”
With that said, she ruffled little Shen Wan’s hair again, quickly took a few mouthfuls of rice, and left in a hurry.
Little Shen Wan watched the woman leave quietly. After she could no longer see her figure, she sat on the stool and took small bites of her rice.
After cleaning, she stepped on the small stool to wash the dishes and put them away, and locked the door according to the woman’s arrangement.
Little Shen Wan continued to sit on the stool, obediently writing her homework while waiting for the woman to come back.
She didn’t know how long it took before she was woken up by the sound of being beaten and scolded outside.
Little Shen Wan carefully moved closer to the door, then opened a gap and looked out. The devil was pulling her mother’s hair again!
She wanted to run out, but saw the look in her mother’s eyes, “Go back!”Xiaowan, go back!Close the door and don’t come out!
Little Shen Wan’s eyes immediately filled with tears, and she covered her mouth with her hands, fearing that her sobs would spread out and be heard by the devil.
Shen Jianye slapped the woman in the face with great force, and cursed with a mouth full of alcohol, “Smelly woman! You still care about me! What they said is right, the more times you slap, the more you can remember!”
The woman swallowed her cry, knowing that she couldn’t persuade him, so she could only say to herself – just get through it.
But why does it still hurt so much?
Little Shen Wan finally couldn’t help it, rushed out of the room, kicked Shen Jianye in the leg, and pushed him while crying, “Devil, stay away from my mother!”
Shen Jianye picked up little Shen Wan’s clothes and sighed, “Devil? I’m your father! It’s good that I didn’t beat you. You, a brat with no hair at all, are still meddling in my business. Believe it or not, I’ll beat you too!”
Being a mother means being strong. The woman straightened up and hugged little Shen Wan’s legs while crying, “Jianye, she is still a child. If you want to hit me, don’t hit her.”
Shen Jianye kicked the woman’s leg, threw little Shen Wan away casually, and left bitterly, “Really! It disturbs my mood!”
The woman ignored the pain and quickly moved to Xiao Shen Wan. She was at a loss as to where to put her hands, and asked anxiously, “Xiao Wan, does it hurt?”
She didn’t cry when she was beaten, and she didn’t cry until the baby was involved.
Xiao Shen Wan smiled, shook her head, sat up with difficulty, patted the woman’s back, and comforted, “Mom, Xiao Wan is fine, don’t cry.”
The woman breathed a sigh of relief and hugged little Shen Wan tightly. Tears flowed uncontrollably. She was scared and asked strangely, “Mom clearly told you to close the door, why did you come out?”
Xiao Shen Wan smiled and said softly, “Because Xiao Wan has to protect her mother when she grows up!”
The woman was stunned, hugging little Shen Wan tightly and saying nothing.
.
Shen Jianye became more and more addicted to alcohol and gambling. Every time he came back, he would make a mess at home, and even started to fight with Shen Wan.
At first, the woman would clean up the house after he left, but then Shen Jianye’s beatings became more and more severe, and the debts he owed outside became more and more. The woman had no choice but to take little Shen Wan and hide in the countryside.
That year, Xiao Shenwan was six years old.
I thought that my parents, Shen Jianye, would stop, but I didn’t expect that he would also take away the old man’s money.
Father Shen was not in good health to begin with, but because of this incident, he became bedridden and passed away.
But Shen Jianye still had no repentance, and for fear of causing harm to Shen’s mother, the woman had no choice but to come back and leave little Shen Wan in the countryside.
On her seventh birthday, little Shen Wan really missed her mother and took the bus to the city alone.
She was so excited that she even bought a cake.
On the way home, I was still thinking about sharing the cake with my mother.
As the distance from home got closer and closer, little Shen Wan almost couldn’t wait to walk quickly, then faster and faster, and finally started running.
There were many people gathered in front of the building, chattering about something.
Little Shen Wan vaguely heard.
“Is that person going to jump off the building?”
“It looks like you’re doing something evil. If you have something to think about, you have to jump off the building!”
“I know this person. She lives downstairs. Her husband drinks, gambles and does everything. He also beats his wife all the time. Every day – you can hear the noise.”
“It’s not like jumping off the building, it’s better to be alive than dead!”
“That’s right! Isn’t it a new life to be divorced alive? Why can’t you think about it!”
Little Shen Wan didn’t pay attention, she just thought that she could eat cake with her mother later.
With her small body, little Shen Wan managed to squeeze out of the crowd. She just raised her head and was about to run towards the stairs.
There was a loud “bang”, the howling wind brushed past her face, and a woman lay on the ground with her limbs twisted.
Little Shen Wan’s eyes were straightened, and she looked blankly at the ground. First, her eyes were filled with dazzling red, then her twisted figure, and finally her face was fixed on it.
A face that is extremely familiar, yet unfamiliar.
The people on the ground had no pain on their faces and were smiling, with expressions of relief, but their mouths and noses were bright red.
Is it… is it mom?
Little Shen Wan suddenly became mute. She ran over and knelt on the ground, her throat unable to make any sound, and her tears kept flowing.
The woman’s relieved eyes suddenly turned to surprise, with indescribable anxiety. She made a “roaring” sound in her throat. She wanted to reach out her hand to wipe away Shen Wan’s tears, but she couldn’t lift it up due to her broken body after falling from the building.
Xiaowan!Xiaowan!Yes…
Before her thoughts fell, she closed her eyes forever and never woke up again.
Little Shen Wan finally broke out in mournful wails, “Mom!”
In a hazy state, she remembered that she was taken away by the police and her grandma came.
.
Shen Jianye had no intention of repenting. Shen Wan watched him go out to have fun and have a good time every day, biting his mouth secretly and bleeding.
Later, her mother disappeared, and her grandma told her that the cemetery in front of her was her mother.
Little Shen Wan began to live with her grandma, but in order not to drag her down, she had to come back soon.
She was left alone, and Shen Wan also had no friends at school.
The person she thought was a good friend before spread the word about Shen Wan’s family in school, and everyone shunned her.
The sunlight outside the window gradually became brighter, but the room was still dark and cool.
Shen Wan’s pupils were filled with bloodshot eyes, as if they were connected to the red color that day.
Her body began to tremble and she felt cold all over. No matter how tightly she hugged her, she could not dispel the cold.
“Dong dong!” There was a knock on the door.
“Wanwan, are you here?” The familiar voice drove away the cold, and Shen Wan suddenly turned her head to look at the door.
She quickly put down the photo in her hand, opened the curtains, and ran barefoot to open the door.
