Chapter 47: My Parents Are Dead in My Heart
"Daya shaves first."
Luo Xinxin roasted the dagger and scissors in the fire to kill the viruses with the high temperature. Daya sat obediently on the small stool with a piece of newspaper wrapped around her neck.
Make a hole in the middle of the newspaper and put it over your head to prevent broken hair from getting into your clothes.
Her hair was quite long and tangled, and the lice were jumping around wantonly. Luo Xinxin felt a little hesitant to do anything, fearing that the lice would jump onto her body.
"Sister, let me cut it!"
Erya asked for it.
"Okay, cut it short and I'll shave it later. Be careful not to cut your hands."
Luo Xinxin handed her the scissors.
"Know."
Erya agreed. She picked up a strand of hair and cut it neatly. Click, click... soon it was cut into short hair that looked like it had been bitten by a dog.
There was a pile of messy hair on the ground, and Luo Xinxin swept it all into the fire pit and burned it. A foul smell of burning protein came out, mixed with a hint of meat. It was probably roasted lice.
"It smells so good, it must be delicious."
Daya couldn't help swallowing her saliva and felt a little regretful. Why didn't she roast the lice to eat before?
"Stop eating lice or I'll beat you up!"
Luo Xinxin slapped the girl. She had such a hard life as a child that she never thought of eating lice. Why was this girl so greedy?
"No more."
Daya shook her head vigorously. She didn't want her sister to be angry. No matter how delicious the lice were, she would not eat them.
Luo Xinxin picked up the dagger, blew on the blade, and prepared to cut Daya's head.
"Xinxin, be careful not to cut your skin." Luo Weian kindly reminded him. The knife looked scary, and he was afraid that his granddaughter would draw blood when she cut it.
"Know!"
Luo Xinxin agreed impatiently. She would definitely cut gently, so was there any need to be reminded?
The system's products are indeed all high-quality. The dagger shaves hair very quickly, but——
"It's bleeding, Erya, bring me a towel!"
Luo Xinxin was so scared that she stopped immediately. The dagger was too sharp and she was not skilled in using it for the first time, so she cut her skin.
"Why don't you scream? You piece of wood!"
Luo Xinxin pressed the wound with a towel and yelled at Daya who was still smiling.
"It doesn't hurt."
Daya didn't care at all. It was just a small injury. It hurt more when her father beat her!
"You idiot, scream when it hurts next time."
Luo Xinxin glared at him unhappily.
"knew!"
Daya agreed obediently.
Practice makes perfect. Soon, Luo Xinxin became the mature teacher Tony. She shaved the two sisters' heads into shiny bald heads, leaving no hair at all, leaving no room for lice to survive.
There is a public bathroom in the accommodation area. Luo Xinxin poured the boiled hot water into a bucket and asked the two sisters to carry it in to wash.
"Um, shave your hair down there too!"
Luo Xinxin stuffed the dagger into their hands and gave them a quiet warning.
Where there is hair, lice will grow. This time, we must clean it out completely and leave no room for the lice to survive.
"Hairless."
Daya shook her head, she had hair on her head.
Erya also shook her head, she was even more hairless.
Luo Xinxin was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, "Have you had your period?"
"What is menstruation? Is it delicious?" Daya asked ignorantly.
"None of us."
Erya blushed.
Luo Xinxin sighed. Children in later generations are well-nourished and many of them have their periods in their teens. But these two children, one fifteen and the other thirteen, are severely malnourished. No wonder they don't have their periods.
"Go wash it, wash it clean. Clean behind your ears, your neck, your back. I'll bring in the hot water."
Luo Xinxin reminded them.
She used tongs to pick up the dirty clothes that the sisters took off and put them into the fire to burn them into ashes, as well as their shoes, which was considered a complete farewell to their past.
"Xinxin, why are you so nice to them?" Huang Jinxiang asked curiously.
This girl is so fierce and never treats her grandparents well, but she is so nice to these two girls. It's really strange.
"They have no parents, and when I see them I think of myself."
Luo Xinxin sighed lightly and continued to boil water.
Luo Weian also felt bad. His granddaughter had suffered a lot following them, and he had not fulfilled his responsibilities.
Old Mrs. Luo felt a little uneasy, but she felt that she was not wrong.
Compared to the hard times she had as a child, this girl is living a pretty good life.
She has enough food and clothes, and doesn't have to take care of younger siblings. She just curses when she loses at mahjong, and occasionally hits him, but she never hits him hard. Every child goes through this, so what's there to feel wronged about?
"Xinxin, your parents are dead too?"
Huang Jinxiang suddenly asked.
Old Mrs. Luo's face changed and she cursed, "You are the one who died. My son is alive and well."
Although her son is an ungrateful person, she never thought about his death. This fat guy is really greedy!
"Excuse me, I don't know the situation."
Huang Jinxiang quickly apologized with a smile.
Luo Xinxin said, "In my heart, they are already dead!"
She snorted coldly, and with a stern face, she went to the house to get clothes. After walking a few steps, she turned back and warned coldly: "You are not allowed to mention them in the house in the future!"
"No, no, I definitely won't mention it."
Luo Weian hurriedly assured that he would just raise that ungrateful person for nothing and not mention him at all!
Old Mrs. Luo curled her lips in dissatisfaction. Although she was a little dissatisfied, she didn't dare to say anything.
Huang Jinxiang saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he said he was going to find Ma Quaner and slipped away.
Daya and Erya were rubbing the mud hard behind the shower curtain, layer after layer, until their skin turned red.
After washing for an hour, I finally could not rub out the mud, and even the spaces between my toes were clean.
"Snap"
Daya patted her sister's back gently. The crisp sound made her very satisfied. She grinned and said, "It's clean."
"You're clean too!"
Erya also patted her on the back, and the two sisters smiled happily.
Although rubbing the mud is very tiring, it feels so comfortable after washing it off. I feel like my body has become lighter.
They put on the clothes that Luo Xinxin sent them. They smelled like mothballs and were very clean and soft. They had never worn such beautiful clothes before.
Both sisters were short and thin. Even though they were old clothes of their original bodies, they were still long, big and baggy, just like the first time Sun Wukong put on clothes.
"Pfft, I'll find someone to fix it for you."
Luo Xinxin couldn't help laughing and turned around to ask Old Lady Luo to modify two pieces of clothing.
"Where do you sleep tonight?"
She asked again, and judging from the two girls' condition, she was afraid they didn't even have a place to sleep.
"Sleep in the haystack." Daya replied.
"Sleep at my house for now. I'll find a way to move your household registration out so you don't have to live with them anymore."
Luo Xinxin decided to meet their father, that bastard who was worse than a beast.
It would be best if Zeng's father could agree voluntarily, otherwise she would use her killer move and force the whole family to get out of the farm!
This was the happiest and most joyful day for Daya and Erya. They had full stomachs, washed themselves nicely, put on clean and soft clothes, and slept on a clean kang.
They had never experienced such a day at home.
"Is my sister my mother in disguise?"
Daya and her sister were whispering in each other's ears.
"Maybe. We will work hard to honor our sister in the future."
"Yes, work to honor Mom!"
The two sisters' voices were not loud, but since they slept on the same kang, Luo Xinxin could hear them clearly. She couldn't help but raise her lips. The feeling of being a mother without any pain... was actually pretty good!
[Third update finished! I went to climb Lotus Mountain. Shenzhen really surprised me. The prices are affordable and there are so many delicious foods. It’s really good.]
