MTL - It’s a Stepmother, Not a Sister [70s]-Chapter 1 Jiang Shuangling
1971, end of March.
Last night, it rained apricot blossoms, the mud on the village trail was still wet, and a series of footprints with the scent of green grass were stepped on.
The century-old osmanthus tree grows new branches, and the green leaves are trembling with wet raindrops.
The young leaves swooped along the water outlet.
The barrel swayed slightly.
Jiang Shuangling walked home with water.
She was wearing light apricot-colored clothes, which outlined a thin waistline in the spring breeze. Run Xing's eyes flashed in front of her, looking particularly moving.
Not far away, under the eaves of the thatched hut, passing by two educated youths in their twenties, their eyes could not help but follow the girl who carried the water.
One of the people with the sickle couldn't help but wanted to step forward to help, but his companion pushed his elbow, "Let's go, go to work."
The man withdrew his eyes angrily, and continued to walk forward with his companions sullen, but he couldn't help but turn his head to look at her.
Aunt Sun, who was standing beside Tiangeng Road, saw this scene in her eyes, and joked with her companion with a basket of pig grass, "It's a pity for the Jiang family girl."
"I thought she was going to the University of Industry and Agriculture, but everyone said she would definitely be able to attend, who knows..."
"It is estimated that there is no such thing."
"But why can't she think about it? Such a beautiful girl, she is going to be a stepmother?"
"My parents are dead, and I follow my uncle and aunt, do you think Li Erhua can really hope for her? Promise this kind of marriage?"
“Why doesn’t she let her own daughter Hongling go—”
"Sorrow! Sorrow! You Sorrow!"
"Your sister is going to be a stepmother!"
"The stepmother is an old witch..."
…
A lump of smashed mud hit his face, the boy of four or five years old raised his head stubbornly, and three children of six or seven years old surrounded him, making fun of him.
"I'm not a mourner..."
"Your parents were killed by you, and now your sister is going to be a stepmother, and the stepmothers are all black hearts."
"The old witch who eats the heart of children!"
"Don't be next to him."
The most mischievous Ge Erdan crossed his hips and laughed loudly, shouting "Black Heart Liver" and "Sorrowful Gate Star", and bent over to pick up a lump of mud and smash it.
"—what are you doing!"
Frightened by the voice of the person coming, the three children ran away.
"Run, his sister is here—"
Jiang Shuangling, who put down the water, took the pole and patted Ge Erdan's ass. Before touching Ge Erdan's body, he first fell a dog and gnawed at the mud.
The originally formed cow dung sunk into the outline of a human face and facial features.
The children onlookers clapped their hands and laughed, Jiang Shuangling holding a pole: "..."
Ge Erdan's face was full of cow dung, and he was about to cry with his mouth slumped. An adult came over to see this, the elder of one of the children, and persuaded: "What do you care about these children? ?"
Jiang Shuangling sneered in her heart, care? Is it not your child who is emotionally bullying?
She glared at the children, "Come and see, this is the end of talking nonsense, God can't stand it, let him suffer retribution, talking nonsense deserves to eat cow dung."
She glared at her, the children looked at me, I looked at you, glanced at the pole in her hand, and ran away without saying a word.
"Sister..."
Jiang Shuangling took her brother's hand into the house.
Small blue patch.
Jiang Che raised his head to look at his sister, and let her wipe the black stains between his fingers clean.
"Sister, I am not a death star."
Jiang Shuangling squeezed his face with a smile, and said softly, "Of course you are not."
Both parents of the Jiang siblings died. Their father used to be the production captain of the commune. Four or five years ago, he took the villagers to repair water conservancy and died in an accident. At that time, their mother was pregnant with Jiang Che and was stimulated to give birth. , gave birth to Jiang Che and died after him.
There are rumors in the village that Jiang Che is a mourning star, who defeats his parents and his mother. When he was born, he killed his parents.
Jiang Che's little face was wiped clean, he was only a little over four years old, not yet five years old, his body was thin and small, but his facial features were very beautiful. Someone misunderstood him as a beautiful little girl.
Five or six-year-old girls in the village were not as good-looking as him, and it was because of this that those naughty boys caught him and bullied him.
Jiang Shuangling touched his head, "The hair is a little long, my sister will cut it for you."
The four-year-old boy sat down on the stool, Jiang Shuangling took the scissors and helped him trim it short, a refreshing hairstyle that was not out of the ordinary, which made his small face more beautiful.
Jiang Che lowered his head and rubbed his hands together. After holding it for a long time, he finally couldn't help but said, "Sister, don't go to be a stepmother, okay?"
Jiang Shuangling smiled, "What's wrong?"
His little hand grabbed the hem of his sister's clothes, "They said that being a stepmother would turn into an old witch."
"Oh? Is that so? Do you think my sister is an old witch?"
The honest child bit his lip and shook his head.
swallow child...
His sister is so young and beautiful, how could she be an old witch.
The smile on Jiang Shuangling's face deepened, comforting him: "You are still young, don't worry about the adults, just know that my sister will not leave you."
She joked in a childish tone: "Even if my sister becomes an old witch, she won't eat you, brother, you can rest easy."
Jiang Shuangling knows that she can't tell him too much about children of this age.
She likes to tease children, especially such a beautiful little radish head.
After listening to her words, the awkward little Jiang Che was silent for a while with a stiff face.
Jiang Shuangling: “…”
Sometimes she really doesn't understand what these little kids are thinking.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Jiang Che tugged off her sleeve seriously, Jiang Shuangling was about to burst into laughter, but she pretended to be serious on the surface, "It depends on what you think. I don't want to change."
Jiang Che: "…"
Little Jiang Che is a little tangled. After becoming an old witch, other children are afraid of him, so they won't bully him, but...
"The old witch will eat the heart and liver of children."
In the village, several households keep two pigs, one is raised and paid to the commune, and the other is killed and eaten by themselves during the New Year.
The smell of meat can only be eaten during the festivals.
Brother Jiang stared at the little tender pig's body, swallowed, and nodded in agreement.
That's right, why doesn't the old witch eat delicious pork instead of eating children? It's unscientific.
Jiang Shuangling stood in front of the pigpen with her younger brother, her eyes also staring at the little tender pig in front of her.
Want to eat... its meat.
Jiang Shuangling never thought that such a day would come when she would be greedy for pork.
Before half a month, she was not Jiang Shuangling, but Jiang Shuangling who was born in the 1990s.
