Li Miaomiao, a self-abasing and socially anxious girl who was gaslighted by her family and relatives since childhood and subjected to campus violence by her classmates, one night dreamt of an immor...
"Holiday is coming soon, I'm so happy." After a busy day, the pretty Jiang Yin shouted this sentence happily, and edited it into text on WeChat and sent it to her best friend Li Miaomiao.
But as she expected, Li Miaomiao really spoiled her fun. A minute later, Li Miaomiao sent a voice message. Jiang Yin first converted it into text, then tremblingly opened the voice bar, and instantly heard a deafening roar of rage.
"Jiang Yin, are you fucking sick? You actually like taking a vacation? I'm so fed up with going home. I'm fed up with those nosy relatives.
You are such a bastard, I am in so much pain and you are gloating and adding fuel to the fire, you are happy for yourself, why send it to me? Are you still my best friend? "
Jiang Yin looked helpless and didn't respond. She started to exit WeChat and open the video streaming app. However, soon another voice message from Li Miaomiao popped up: "Jiang Yin, you idiot, wuwuwuwuwu."
Jiang Yin was puzzled after hearing this. Why was she crying now after scolding so fiercely just now? She was very puzzled, but she knew that her best friend was in a very bad mental state, so she made a voice call to her.
After a while, the call was connected, and Li Miaomiao's weak voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, Jiang Yin, I'm in so much pain."
"Oh, don't be miserable. You are just afraid that your relatives will ask you how much you earn a year, how much you earn a month, and then laugh at you by talking about how much their sons and daughters earn.
Anyway, you have experienced such things since you were a child, you should be used to it, so don't be sad, baby." Jiang Yin smiled cutely.
"Wuwu ...
"Okay, okay, don't cry. I told you, I will come to my house to find you tomorrow, you have to wait." Jiang Yin began to comfort Li Miaomiao as usual.
"I have to go to work tomorrow, and I have to go to work the day after tomorrow. You can't come to see me until the day after tomorrow." Li Miaomiao cried even louder.
"Okay, I'll come find you the day after tomorrow and treat you to hotpot. I've also received last month's salary." Jiang Yin said this, but he had already begun to gloat in his heart, thinking: This girl is so miserable. It's almost New Year's Day and she still hasn't had a holiday.
In the blink of an eye, the day the two girls had agreed upon arrived. Jiang Yin first came to Li Miaomiao's house, cleaned up the house with her, and then took her out to eat hot pot.
Jiang Yin rode a shared bicycle towards the house rented by Li Miaomiao, and thought as he walked: Miaomiao must not have gotten up yet, I'm going to wake her up.
When they arrived, as expected, Jiang Yin knocked several times before Li Miaomiao opened the door. After Li Miaomiao, who was wearing pajamas and had sleepy eyes, opened the door, Jiang Yin cursed:
"Are you going to let me freeze to death outside your house? You have such a cruel heart, Li Miaomiao."
"Hey, come in, come in, sleep with me." Li Miaomiao pulled Jiang Yin into the house, speaking weakly.
"Don't pull me, I haven't changed my slippers yet." Jiang Yin closed the door, changed her slippers, took off her down jacket and hung it up. She looked inside and saw that the one-bedroom apartment rented by Li Miaomiao was fully occupied by her. The thought "If you were my sister, I would strangle you to death" flashed through her mind.
After taking off her clothes, Li Miaomiao pulled Jiang Yin onto the bed, her voice still weak: "Come and sleep with me."
"Miaomiao, aren't you going to eat hotpot?" Jiang Yin pulled Li Miaomiao's short hair with his hands.
"Go again in the afternoon."
"It's already eleven o'clock, and it will soon be afternoon." Jiang Yin's tone was a little anxious.
"Why are you in such a hurry? For us humans, there's no rush at any time. It's only morning now, and we can still sleep a little longer. Come on, go back to sleep."
Jiang Yin stuck out his tongue to express his speechlessness, and had no choice but to sleep with her for a while longer.
In the afternoon, the two sisters went to eat hot pot. Li Miaomiao rode her electric bike with Jiang Yin and finally arrived at the hot pot restaurant. The two ordered the food and started eating.
"Miaomiao, actually I hate those relatives too. They also say things about me, but I hate going to work even more. I'm almost exhausted from working overtime every day." Jiang Yin picked up a piece of apple with a toothpick and put it in his mouth.
"I'm telling you, Jiang Yin, meeting relatives is the most annoying thing in the world, bar none." Li Miaomiao said as if she was about to jump up, "I can't stand them anymore, I really don't want to go back,
I want to spend the New Year where I am, just like last year. If I go back, they will definitely pressure me to get married again. I've already told them I'm a lesbian, but they say I'm mentally unhealthy and sick. I think they're the ones who are sick. I really resist getting close to men."
"Hahahahahaha." Seeing Li Miaomiao's grinning face, Jiang Yin couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Miaomiao, you are so brave, you dare to say such things."
"What's there to be afraid of? You're a bunch of old stubborn people. You're making me so angry. I really can't stand it anymore. I couldn't stand it when I went back home during the last National Day holiday. I really don't want to go back this time." Li Miaomiao's emotions were still very unstable.
Jiang Yin stuffed a piece of apple into her mouth: "It's lonely to spend the New Year alone."
"It's not like no one has ever experienced this before." Li Miaomiao said while chewing an apple, her pronunciation not very clear.
After a brief gathering, the two went home to pack their things and set off on their journey back to their hometown. Jiang Yin's home was closer, in another city in the province.
Li Miaomiao lived far away. She lived in a small village in a county town near a non-provincial capital city in the neighboring province, so it was a bit difficult for her to go home.
Many relatives at home advised her not to go to the big city, saying that she couldn't earn much money and it was so difficult to go home, which was why she didn't want to go home.
As expected, before she even had the New Year's Eve dinner when she returned home, Li Miaomiao was asked all kinds of questions by some relatives.
"Miaomiao, you're already in your twenties? Why don't you find a boyfriend? If you don't find one now, you won't be able to get married."
"Miaomiao, how much do you earn a month working outside? Is it enough for you to spend? Your cousin has already bought a car and is almost paying off his mortgage. Didn't you say you want to rely on your own efforts? Is that enough?"
"Li Miaomiao, it's time to lose weight. Look at your legs, they're so thick and your butt is so big."
"Enough, you are all a bunch of monsters, get out of here." Li Miaomiao said this in her imagination, and in her imagination she kicked them all away with a sweeping kick.
But she didn't dare to do that in reality, and she couldn't say a word in the situation at that time. Only after that did she have a lot of words come out. It was really infuriating.
At night, Li Miaomiao lay in the quilt and cried alone. Her tears soaked the pillowcase and wet the pillow. She silently took out the mobile phone she bought in college, which was already very slow. She took great pains to open WeChat, edited the following message and sent it to Jiang Yin.
In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence: Jiang Yin, relatives are the most annoying people in the world, no doubt about it; meeting relatives is the most annoying thing in the world, no doubt about it.
