Coffee Latte
She looked at the data on her phone; it was terrible.
If possible, you should give up.
But she didn't want to give up her dream. She looked at her parents and felt afraid of society.
Utterly useless.
She looked at the data in single-player mode.
I slowly started to fall down, looking at the ceiling. Staying at home is really comfortable.
However, a comfortable visual experience is not good either.
The older sister said, "Let's go for a bit."
Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."
They walked along the path.
Sister: "City people love to eat things that smell bad but taste good. If I make something that smells bad but tastes good, it will definitely sell like hotcakes."
Miao Xingzhou suddenly remembered that he had pulled up a wild grass and said to his mother, "We can use a different kind of leaf to wrap zongzi, maybe it will taste better."
She blushed slightly.
She retorted to her sister, "Would you put poop on the dining table and then add spicy food to it?"
They followed a path to the riverbank and began soaking their feet in the cool water, while the older sister drew pictures on the stones.
She's only nineteen now, and her sister is twenty.
They are all quite young, a time when they are full of hope for the future.
They returned home.
My sister said, "I'm getting tired of scrolling through my phone."
Her older sister went upstairs, and Ye followed.
The older sister said, "What are you doing up here?"
Miao Xingzhou: "Can't I go upstairs?"
Older sister: "Let's draw."
They started drawing.
The older sister said, "Let's draw this giraffe."
After finishing the drawing, my sister said, "The giraffe's neck isn't long enough."
Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."
Sister: "Let's pretend it's a baby giraffe."
Miao Xingzhou laughed: "A baby giraffe! It can be a baby giraffe, a little baby giraffe!! Hahaha~"
Loud laughter came from upstairs.
As they were cooking downstairs, their father came in and asked, "What are you making today?"
Miao Xingzhou: "Stir-fried cabbage with pork."
Dad's expression darkened.
Sister: "There's only cabbage and meat in the fridge."
They only eat a little bit when they eat.
The older sister said, "Miao Xingzhou, shall we play King of Glory?"
Miao Xingzhou: "I want to write novels."
Sister: "Let's play a round."
"All right."
I suddenly discovered that my phone doesn't support playing this game.
Sister: "Looks like fate isn't going to let you play games."
Miao Xingzhou: "It's fate that won't let you play games with me."
She continued writing novels.
Dad went out and didn't come back until very late; everyone was asleep.
She slept with her sister.
My sister said, "Did you fart?"
Miao Xingzhou: "I farted like an auntie."
Sister: "No wonder it smells so bad."
She couldn't stop laughing, and suddenly she remembered sleeping with her sister when she was in junior high school. Her sister would cover herself with a fart and then let it out on her. She was sleeping with her head covered and was so disgusted by the smell that she said, "Your fart smells so bad!"
Finally, the older sister laughed and explained, "I was pressing down on my fart, and then I stopped pressing down, and you could smell it! Haha..."
They are asleep now; life is a continuous process of growing up.
Soon they will grow old and reach the end of their lives.
My older sister woke up and said, "Get up and cook."
They went downstairs in a daze, checked the time: 6:30.
Miao Xingzhou: "Isn't it a bit early to start cooking now?"
Sister: "The early bird catches the worm."
She couldn't help but laugh; she had already washed the rice by the time her sister returned with the firewood.
It got stuck in the rice cooker.
My older sister lit the fire and chopped the vegetables. She started making her favorite stewed white radish with meat, while I made carrots. My father got up, his face both white and red.
Dad: "Today is a radish feast."
Miao Xingzhou and his sister exchanged a glance and then laughed.
After finishing the meal, Dad ate the slowest, so he cleaned up.
My sister started playing games again.
He started writing his own novel.
Dad said, "If you don't go to school, when will you go to work?"
The older sister didn't say anything.
Miao Xingzhou: "I want to stay at home and earn money by writing novels."
Dad: "You didn't even finish high school, what are you doing writing novels?!"
Miao Xingzhou lowered his head, looking somewhat unhappy.
The older sister said, "It's better than doing nothing."
Miao Xingzhou glanced at his sister, then suppressed his unhappy expression and continued typing.
Dad started by saying, "Writing novels is good, but you also need to make money."
Miao Xingzhou said, "Mm."
After that, her older sister went to work, while she and her father stayed at home.
Living a comfortable life.
It was getting late. He was looking at the wildflowers by the roadside when he suddenly heard a cat meow. He grabbed it and said, "Little cutie, come inside with Mommy!"
Dad: "Did you catch this stray cat?"
Miao Xingzhou: "I found it in the place where my neighbor keeps firewood in front of his house."
"I don't know if it belongs to the neighbor."
Dad: "Who would want a cat now? It must be someone who didn't want it anymore and threw it somewhere."
Miao Xingzhou grabbed the cat's paw, then looked at it and said, "A little kitten with a small head and a long body!"
Then she remembered the white cat she had when she was a child. No matter what kind of white cat it was, she always called it "Nu Nu" because they were female. Now, looking at the fur in her hand, she said, "What should I name you?"
She started looking at the little-headed cat. "I'll call you Little-Headed Daughter."
Dad stood beside him, smiling.
My mother called and said, "I hate those cats the most, they're so dirty."
Miao Xingzhou: "Kitties are so cute!"
"look!"
She grabbed the cat's paws and lifted them up, revealing its black and pink paw pads.
Mom: "What's so interesting about it!"
She said slowly, "I think it looks good."
She put the cat down.
Mom: "When are you planning to start working?"
She didn't say anything.
Mom: "You're not going to make us support you, are you?"
She didn't say anything.
Mom looked a little angry.
But then she turned around and said, "As long as you're healthy, that's all that matters."
She heard it and started laughing.
Mom: "How about you write a novel?"
Miao Xingzhou: "Not very good."
Mom: "Hmm. So you still write novels?"
"like."
Dad looked at him without saying a word.
Fortunately, Miao's trip was inexpensive.
My sister called and said, "I just bought some yogurt!"
Miao Xingzhou: "Such a big box!"
Sister: "Twenty-six yuan a bottle."
Miao Xingzhou: "So expensive!"
My sister ate her yogurt like a bear drinking honey, and said with a smile, "If you want some now, I can send you a bottle."
Mom: "You're wasting money."
Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm, I don't want to."
Sister: "Look, I'm making oatmeal."
Miao Xingzhou: "It looks delicious!"
Mom: "If you like it, I'll buy you a box."
Miao Xingzhou: "I don't want to."
Mom: "Buy one box if you want to eat it."
Miao Xingzhou: "I already said I don't want it!"
They all laughed.
Later that evening, while she was drawing, the door suddenly opened, and her father said, "It's so late, go to sleep. Don't stay up so late."
Miao Xingzhou went upstairs and lay in bed, feeling quite sleepy.
The tech-savvy parents asked, "Do you still want to repeat your choices?"
Miao Xingzhou: "I will pursue what I like. As long as I can survive, I feel happy."
When I woke up from the dream, Dad said, "Let's go plant vegetables, want to come along?"
Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."
They went up the mountain and began to hoe the ground.
One pit after another, then vegetable seeds were sown.
Celery, pickled mustard greens, leafy greens...
After planting, start spreading fertilizer.
After they finished, it was already noon. They ate lunch and then rested.
While I was writing my novel, my father asked, "What are you writing?"
Miao Xingzhou: "I didn't write anything."
They both fell silent. Dad looked at his phone and gradually fell asleep.
Listening to the snoring, Miao Xingzhou began writing a novel for five hours.
Dad woke up during dinner.
"Is dinner ready?"
Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."
After finishing the meal.
Her mother called, and she answered.
Mom: "You're off work?"
Miao Xingzhou: "So happy to be off work?"
A breeze blew in my face as my mother said, "Of course I'm happy!"
Mom: "People are rarely absolutely bad or absolutely good."
Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."
Mom: "Our boss is a..."
Mom walked to the rented room.
My sister smiled and said, "Off work?"
Mom: "Mmm."
My older sister is still playing on her phone while my mother eats.
My sister said, "Miao Xingzhou, you called again?"
Miao Xingzhou: "I'm alone most of the time, and I feel a bit lonely."
Mom: "Is it because you're lonely that you come to bother us?"
Miao Xingzhou: "What's so annoying about chatting?"
"Mom, what did you eat?"
Mom: "Pork bone."
Miao Xingzhou: "What pork bone?"
Mom: "It's just a piece of meat on the mouth, I haven't eaten it in a long time."
Miao Xingzhou: "Is it delicious?"
Mom: "It's delicious."
"You bought it?"
Mom: "Mmm."
The phone call ended quickly, and it was almost 10 o'clock.
She started to sleep.
In my dream, the person who looked like me said, "Why are you so happy despite being such a failure?!"
Miao Xingzhou began to flee. She was seized by countless vengeful spirits, who then gnawed at her flesh and bones.
She began to try her best to escape.
But it was still eaten raw.
She woke up from her dream to find the house very hot, her face covered in sweat. She checked the time; it was only three in the morning. She went downstairs to start studying.
A long time passed; it took me about six years to finally sign a contract.
She didn't earn much money after signing the contract.
She sometimes doubts herself.
Sometimes she even wanted to give up, but she never did. Perhaps she has manic and paranoid tendencies.
While she was cooking, her father came downstairs and said, "Is your mother coming home this month?"
Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."
Dad was smiling as he looked at his phone, probably checking the date.
Today is September 6th, and I'll be going home in a little over twenty days.
She was looking at the computer when her father suddenly said, "Let's go eat."
She went out to eat with her father.
Seeing my own novel felt like being punched; perhaps it just wasn't suitable.
She thought to herself with a sense of melancholy.
She called her sister, who said, "I want a coffee latte."
"It's just coffee, milk, and coconut mixed together."
Miao Xingzhou: "Does coffee and latte replenish iron?"
Sister: "It's just pure milk, coconut juice, and coffee mixed together. How did you know it's good for replenishing iron?" Miao Xingzhou: "I thought latte was a type of coffee that could replenish iron."
Sister: "A latte is milk."
