Dashan Makes a Living 1984 - Chapter 182

  Chapter 182 178: Sister Wang Xiaolan

  Wang Tianxiao stood on the fourth floor dejectedly, leaning on the fence and looking at the bustling crowd below. All the black heads were covered with colorful clothes, and people’s eyes could be dazzled at a glance.

   It is really not easy to find someone.

   When he was depressed, he suddenly saw that Madoka in the crowd again.

  It is true that his image is too prominent among the crowd, with his big bald head, because the temperature in Qingcheng is very low in winter, people need hair to protect their heads, and it is rare for them to shave their heads like him.

  Even if someone’s hair is cut short, they will wear a hat instead of bare head.

  Wang Tianxiao followed Xiaoyuan’s eyes, and was surprised to find that Xiaoyuan came to a place selling tea, and there was a person waiting there early. It was the girl in yellow that Wang Tianxiao had been looking for so hard.

  Wang Tianxiao didn’t delay, and immediately rushed down the crowd, eyes locked on Xiaoyuan’s bald head, and soon came to them.

   When he got to his side, he finally confirmed that the girl in the yellow dress was indeed his second sister Wang Xiaolan.

   After all, she was his own sister. Even though he hadn’t seen her for many years, and what he saw was the young Wang Xiaolan, the natural sense of intimacy made him instantly certain that the girl in front of him was his sister.

  Wang Xiaolan and Xiaoyuan also saw Wang Tianxiao for the first time, and their expressions were a little unnatural.

  From Wang Xiaolan’s point of view, she hadn’t seen Wang Tianxiao in two or three years, so she didn’t know that Wang Tianxiao had already returned from rebirth.

  Xiaoyuan didn’t notice Wang Xiaolan’s uneasiness beside him, he was secretly nervous, he didn’t know what Wang Tianxiao was doing after him, he had already shown weakness, and he didn’t do anything, so it shouldn’t be so hard to push.

“you…”

  Xiao Yuan just wanted to say something to Wang Tianxiao, but saw that Wang Tianxiao didn’t look at him, but grabbed the arm of the woman beside him, and he was stunned.

   What’s the matter, did you see my woman?

   Ming Qiang, right?

   It is said that the folk customs here are sturdy, but they are not so sturdy.

   But he didn’t have the heart to protect the women around him for a while, but he looked at Wang Tianxiao with serious eyes, and was subconsciously frightened.

  Wang Tianxiao ignored Xiaoyuan beside him.

  He looked at his sister in front of him with all his heart, feeling a little dazed for a while.

  In the previous life, the second sister died very early, so he calculated that he hadn’t seen her for nearly twenty years.

  In the days when my sister was alive, because of the rigid relationship between her and her mother, she rarely went home, and almost always got together less and more.

   As for this younger sister, he obviously didn’t care enough.

  The main reason was that there were too many people in the family at that time.

In contrast, he put a lot of energy on his younger brothers and sisters. Not only did he not pay much attention to this sister who was only four years younger than him, but he also hoped that she would help him a lot. Bundle.

  Wang Xiaolan has a stronger personality, which is different from her sisters.

  Even though she was a girl, she was unwilling to obey her parents and elder brother. She even said that she wanted to sever the mother-daughter relationship because she had quarreled with her mother. It was not until half a year before her mother died that she eased up a little.

   But at that time, the mother and daughter had lost the sense of intimacy that blood is thicker than water, and there was only exhaustion and mutual compromise.

   “Second Brother.” Wang Xiaolan called out.

  Second brother, Xiaoyuan next to him looked at Wang Tianxiao in surprise, not knowing what to do for a while.

  Wang Tianxiao turned his head to look at Xiaoyuan, and said flatly: “My sister and I have something to talk about, please avoid it first.”

   Madoka hesitated for a while, but didn’t dare to say anything, and turned away.

  Wang Tianxiao finally calmed down. Seeing his younger sister dressed in a trendy way, with heavy makeup and a look of vicissitudes on her face, he felt very uncomfortable.

  She is only twenty-one years old.

  How did it become like this.

  Although everyone has their own ambitions, after all, she was young and ignorant back then, and as an older brother, I didn’t give her enough care.

  He said softly: “Xiaolan, when did you come back? Why don’t you go home?”

  Wang Xiaolan hesitated, shook her head and said: “I don’t want to go back, my mother doesn’t want to see me, and it doesn’t make any sense for me to go back. Anyway, she has a lot of children, so it doesn’t matter if there is a girl like me.”

   “Then you will come back.” Wang Tianxiao said.

  Wang Xiaolan bit her lip, stubbornly not speaking.

   “Xiaolan, since you’re back, go home and live. You shouldn’t have much resentment after you’ve been away for so long. Mother is just like that, and she isn’t harsh on you alone.”

   “I won’t go back. I don’t want to see her. Anyway, as long as I see her, she will scold me. Those two people can’t see each other, so they can relax.”

  Wang Tianxiao looked at this stubborn younger sister, secretly helpless.

  If she really doesn’t miss her family, why would she run back and travel thousands of miles to visit the temple fair in her hometown?

   I’m afraid it’s more timid to be close to the nostalgia.

  Reminiscent of the indifferent atmosphere in his own family, he can fully understand why Wang Xiaolan didn’t go home.

  It is an individual, and it is easy to be crushed by the heartbeat.

   “So where do you live now?”

   “The guest house in town.”

   “That…bald…”

   “He is my man.” Wang Xiaolan did not hesitate.

  Wang Tianxiao felt very uncomfortable.

  Not to mention what happened to her mother Zhang Yufeng, but in terms of appearance, that is not too bad, so Wang Tianxiao brothers and sisters are not bad except Wang Tianyi who is a bit shabby.

  Especially the three girls, each prettier than the other.

   Among them, the most beautiful one is the second sister Wang Xiaolan.

  If she had a blind date in the village, the threshold of the pit courtyard would have been stepped down.

   But looking at the man she is looking for now, he is timid and overweight, with a fat head and big ears. He seems to be at least thirty years old. What is the plan?

   Could it be because the other party has some money.

  Which elder brother would be happy seeing his sister in this state?

  Wang Tianxiao glanced at Xiaoyuan who was smoking a cigarette in the distance, and asked, “Is he your man?”

“Um.”

   “But his appearance…”

   “So what’s the matter, he looks a bit shabby, but he has good character and treats me well, at least he doesn’t restrict what I can do or not do, so I’m satisfied.”

   “His character is good?” Wang Tianxiao blurted out, “I don’t think he is a person of high moral quality.”

   “That’s because you don’t know him well. He is very nice. He not only takes care of me, but also buys me a lot of clothes and things.” When Wang Xiaolan spoke, her eyes slightly dodged.

  At this moment, a gust of wind blew up the silk scarf around Wang Xiaolan’s neck.

  Wang Xiaolan hurriedly stuffed the silk scarf into the neckline again.

  But just at this moment, Wang Tianxiao found two obvious wounds on both sides of her neck. He told her to stand up and was about to untie the silk scarf to see what was going on.

   “It’s nothing, just a little rash, I dare not see the wind.”

   “Don’t move,” Wang Tianxiao’s business improved a little, she grabbed her sister’s hand covering the neckline, and lifted the silk scarf off.

  At first glance, I saw two obvious bruises on both sides of Wang Xiaolan’s neck. It may have been a few days, and the bruises had turned purple, which was horrible.

  Wang Tianxiao identified it carefully and found that the bruise was big on one side and only one point on the other. He immediately understood what it was.

   Suddenly a little angry.

   “What happened to your neck?”

   “It’s nothing.” Wang Xiaolan hurriedly pulled the silk scarf over to cover the bruise.

   “You still lied to me, it looks like you were pinched by someone, who is it, is it you who bullied you with the bald head?”

   “No, no, don’t worry about the second brother.”

   “Tell me, if he bullies you, I will go to him and talk to him, I am your brother, what are you afraid of, if you don’t tell me, who else can you tell?”

   “It’s really not him, brother, he was very good to me, I didn’t intend to hurt him.”

   “Bruises?” Wang Tianxiao was speechless, “What kind of bruises are you doing? Whose bruises can hit the neck? If you don’t say so, I’ll ask him.”

  Wang Tianxiao turned around to look for the bald head, but was grabbed by Wang Xiaolan.

   “Second brother, don’t meddle in my affairs. Why do you all like to meddle in my affairs? I’m not a child, I know what I’m doing.”

Seeing that Wang Xiaolan was about to cry, Wang Tianxiao was very helpless. He gently helped his sister re-tie the silk scarf around her neck, and said softly, “Well, I won’t ask any questions for now, but if you have something to do, you must tell me , If you don’t even tell your brother, who else can you tell, you can’t feel wronged, bear it by yourself.”

  Wang Xiaolan lowered her head and nodded in response.

“Um.”

   “Okay, let’s not talk about this, let me take you to see your little nephew.”

“Fang baby, I’ve seen it. Didn’t I see it when I was born? I even knit a small sweater for her. You forgot, a little girl. I laughed and said that our Wang family They all have long arms and long legs, so why does that little girl, Fang Wa, have small arms and hands?”

  When it comes to children, Wang Xiaolan feels much better.

   He has returned to his lively appearance as a teenager.

   There are three girls in the Wang family, the eldest, Wang Xiaomei, has a gentle and virtuous personality, probably a bit like Li Yali.

  The little sister Wang Xiaozhu has a mischievous personality, and she restrains herself when she grows up.

  Wang Xiaolan, on the other hand, has a capable and stubborn personality, doing her own way, and never turning back if she doesn’t bump into the south wall.

  She still has long hair now. She remembers that when she was a child, she always had short hair, which stood upside down in a mess, just like a boy.

  Wang Tianxiao saw his younger sister smiling, and he seemed to have returned to his boyhood, and his mood improved a lot.

   “It’s not Fangwa, you don’t know yet, your brother and I are both born with a second child, a big fat boy.”

   “Ah, so fast.” Wang Xiaolan was both surprised and delighted.

   “No, that’s because you haven’t been back for too long.” Wang Tianxiao smiled, pointed to the front and said, “Your sister-in-law and the others are under the stage, let’s go and have a look.”

   “Okay.”

  Wang Xiaolan was about to follow, but at this time Xiaoyuan came over and asked where he was going, and when he learned that he was going to see the children, he immediately put on a smile and said that he was also going to see the children.

  Although Wang Tianxiao was upset, he didn’t refute his sister’s face.

  The three of them came to Li Yali. Li Yali was also very happy to see Wang Xiaolan. She grabbed her hand and said that she hadn’t come back for several years. She had grown up and lost weight.

  Wang Xiaolan cleverly concealed the past. She looked at the chubby and cute little Wang Peng, and was very happy. She kept poking Wang Peng’s chubby face with her hands, asking him to call her ma’am.

“He would call you ma’am. It’s only been a few months, and people can’t see clearly.” Li Yali said with a smile beside her. She also noticed Xiaoyuan standing next to her, and looked at her husband with a questioning look, but Wang Tianxiao She was too lazy to explain, so she had no choice but to smile at Madoka.

  Xiaoyuan was also amazed when she saw Li Yali, he didn’t expect this kind of mountain village to have a woman with such temperament.

  Gentle and elegant like a Bodhisattva empress.

   laughed again and again: “Hello, sister-in-law.”

  Li Yali frowned, feeling very embarrassed. She didn’t know how to deal with Xiaoyuan. She thought of you like this, calling me sister-in-law, and I dare not call you sister-in-law.

   “Hello, Second Lady.” Wang Fang already knew that this was her Second Aunt.

“Ah, this is Xiao Fang. She’s so handsome. This makes me feel bad. Come on, ma’am, give me a hug.” When Wang Xiaolan saw Wang Fang’s pink and white face, she didn’t look like her at all. It looks like an ordinary rural child, but I like it.

   “Ma’am, where have you been? Why haven’t I seen you?” Wang Fang fiddled with the button on Wang Xiaolan’s chest, “I’ve been playing with the little lady, and she doesn’t know if I ask her.”

The child just inadvertently asked, but Wang Xiaolan was a little embarrassed and sad, and hurriedly said: “Madam has been living in other places, so it’s normal that you didn’t see me, but as long as you are obedient, you can always see Madam, you see , won’t Madam come back to see you now?”

   “Well, ma’am, why don’t you go?”

   Another fatal problem.

  Wang Xiaolan smiled helplessly: “Of course I have to go, the lady is an adult, there must be something an adult wants to do.”

   “Then my father and my mother are both grown-ups, how can they stay at home, and they, and my three uncles, are also at home, and you are the only one going to other places?”

“this…”

   “Fang baby, your lady just came back from a faraway place, she is tired, you stand on the ground by yourself.” Wang Tianxiao took her daughter from her younger sister, put her on the ground, and made her stand close to her mother.

“what’s your name?”

  Wang Tianxiao didn’t want to pay attention to Xiaoyuan at first, but seeing him standing like this all the time, he was also a little embarrassed, thinking that no matter what, he should at least ask someone else’s name.

   “Zhao Xiaobao.”

   “Zhao Xiaobao,” Wang Tianxiao repeated, and said flatly, “Are you married to my sister?”

   “Second brother… why are you asking this?”

  Wang Tianxiao ignored his sister’s dissuasion and continued to look at Zhao Xiaobao.

   “No, not yet.” Zhao Xiaobao said with a smile.

   “Why not?” Wang Tianxiao continued to ask.

“this…”

   “Brother, I didn’t want to end it. In fact, Xiaobao told me about this a long time ago.” Wang Xiaolan took the topic again.

   “Oh, that’s right, that’s it. It’s Lan Lan who doesn’t want to, and I can’t help it.”

   “Why not?”

   “This…” Wang Xiaolan avoided her eyes again, not daring to look at her brother’s eyes.

   “Then tell me.” Wang Tianxiao turned his attention to Zhao Xiaobao again.

   “Lan Lan said… Lan Lan said that she is still young, yes, that’s it, she said she is very young and doesn’t want to get married for the time being, right, Lan Lan?”

  Wang Xiaolan nodded without denying it.

  Wang Tianxiao looked at the two dubiously, and was thinking about what to do next, when he heard a high-pitched and mournful suona sound from the field.

   Immediately afterwards, the curtain was drawn, and Qin opera began.

   Today’s play is a relatively classic play: Mu Guiying is in command.

This is an excerpt. It started with Yang Zongbao being captured by Mu Guiying. As soon as the curtain opened, the two forces were fighting back and forth on the stage. With the sound of Jin Ge, the vigorous posture of martial arts students and Wudans on the stage immediately attracted the following Audience, big and small, everyone cheers in unison.

   Wang Tianxiao and the others also attracted attention.

  In his previous and present lives, he hadn’t seen Qin Opera live for many years.

  Looking at Zhao Xiaobao again, he was touched by the actors on stage at the beginning, and many of them seemed to lose interest because they couldn’t understand the language and singing.

  Qin Opera is the dialect of Qin Province, with a special singing style. Even local people in Qingcheng can’t fully understand it, let alone outsiders.

  He was bored, so he slowly moved to Wang Xiaolan’s side, kneading Wang Xiaolan’s shoulders from time to time.

  Wang Xiaolan has no expression on her face, neither repelling nor agreeing.

   just quietly looked at the stage.

  Wang Tianxiao saw it and felt very uncomfortable.

   No matter what, I can’t accept that such a bug-like man can mess with his sister.

  He couldn’t help it, and stood beside Wang Xiaolan, “Xiaolan, when are you going to go back to see your mother?”

  Wang Xiaolan didn’t respond at first, and then said after a while, “I don’t know how to go back.”

  Wang Tianxiao could hear some wavering in her tone, so he encouraged: “Mother is different now, she actually misses you very much, and she is not in good health, so I don’t know…”

   “What happened to Mother’s body?” Wang Xiaolan asked.

   “I can’t say anything, but I often feel numb on one side of my body.”

  Wang Tianxiao certainly cannot say that his mother may suffer from hemiplegia.

  But the fact is that since her mother Zhang Yufeng suffered from hemiplegia, she seems to have some brain problems. She is much more verbose than before, and she also likes to speak ill of others behind her back and drive apart the relationship between her brothers and sisters.

  That’s why Wang Xiaolan never reconciled with her mother in her previous life.

  In this life, I have experienced the last time the child was full moon, and the mother has made a little concession, which is completely different from the previous situation of going to the end.

   Now that Wang Xiaolan goes back, maybe they can get back together.

  As long as they reconcile, Zhao Xiaobao will find a reason to drive him away.

  I don’t think too much about the past, I can’t see it as a pit, and let my sister stay in the pit and not come out, sinking deeper and deeper.

  In their short-lived family, most of them died very early, basically before the age of sixty.

  It is also his wish to change everyone’s fate to a certain extent.

   “Why is it numb, is it frozen or…”

   “It’s hard to tell the details, so if it doesn’t work, you can go back and see her. If you keep tossing like this, you are not afraid that something will happen in the future, and you will regret it for the rest of your life.”

   “Xiao Lan, then go back and see Auntie.” Zhao Xiaobao said beside her.

  Wang Tianxiao glanced at him, indicating that there was nothing wrong with him.

  He retracted his head.

   “But what if she scolds me again when I go back?” Wang Xiaolan was worried, but she was still reluctant and uneasy.
