Chapter 7 Sending My Brother Away



Chen Suihuan originally just wanted to pretend to cry a few times, but the more she cried, the more uncomfortable she felt inside, and in the end she really cried, not just acting.

The neighbors felt very uncomfortable when they saw the true feelings being revealed.

"Ah! Old Mrs. Chen and the others are such bad people! Huanhuan and An'an's father just got buried! They are just bullying us!"

"Huanhuan is such a good child! She was forced to resort to knife-wielding. How much injustice must she have endured!"

"When Old Lady Chen was alive, she didn't take the Second Brother seriously. Now that the Second Brother is dead, it's even more impossible for her to treat them well.

Just look at the big scar on Huanhuan’s head and you can tell that these two siblings have been beaten a lot! ”

"Sister! Sister, please stop crying! Sister!" Chen Sui'an felt uncomfortable when he saw Chen Suihuan crying loudly, and he also started crying.

Seeing Chen Sui'an covered in dust and with slap marks on his face, the neighbors felt pain again and started to curse at Old Lady Chen and the others.

"Huanhuan, stop crying. You have such a big bump on your head. If you get hurt too much, will your body still be okay?"

"Xiao An, help your sister up quickly. Your sister is injured and can't catch a cold again."

"Huanhuan, don't cry. We are all witnesses for you. We will never let them bully you again."

Chen Suihuan finally calmed down, wiped his tears, stood up and thanked these people.

"Thank you all uncles, aunts and grandmas. I was also angry because I saw how badly my brother was beaten.

My grandma and the others kept coming to make trouble. My brother and I really couldn't survive! "Chen Suihuan pulled Chen Sui'an out again, and the two siblings suffered a lot together.

Two aunts who usually had close contact with Chen Suihuan's family helped the siblings up, one on each side, and everyone sent them home together.

The house was now in a mess, with tables, chairs and benches all over the floor. Everyone helped to clean up, then left with a sigh and a shake of their heads.

As soon as these people left, Chen Suihuan quickly sat up, closed the door, and asked Chen Sui'an: "Shall we hide the things we bought?"

Chen Sui'an nodded: "Hide everything. I felt that they would definitely come to make trouble, so after you left just now, I moved all the things to my parents' room and locked it.

When you came back, they were asking me for the key. ”

Chen Suihuan patted his brother on the shoulder and said, "Well done. After these two days, I think the situation over there will be peaceful for two days. Let's leave quickly during these two days."

"Okay." Chen Sui'an said, then opened the door of Chen's parents' room and went in to help Chen Suihuan pack his luggage.

"Pack all these quilts and other things, and I'll send them to the post office for you tomorrow and send them directly to you. Don't carry so many things in the car." Chen Suian muttered to Chen Suihuan while packing.

Looking at Chen Sui'an who was like a mother, Chen Suihuan knew that the child was reluctant to part with them.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

"We have a small boiler and an iron pot at home. Take them with you. I heard that we will have dinner together in the village.

You might be able to cook a small meal for yourself, or eat with them. If you eat alone, you can always have something good. ”

"OK."

"I've also put away the thick quilt and the cotton-padded jacket that your mother made for you. You must take good care of yourself when you go to the Northeast.

Don't force yourself to work hard. I'm here anyway. I can give you money every month. Don't tire yourself out.

I have food and drink in the army, so I won't starve. When the time comes, I'll give you all the money and notes. Even if you do nothing, I can still support you for the rest of your life. ”

Chen Suihuan's throat ached from Chen Sui'an's constant nagging. She hugged her younger brother with tears in her eyes.

"I know. I will take good care of myself. You must also take good care of yourself in the army. I'll wait for you to visit me during your vacation."

Chen Sui'an choked with sobs and uttered a "hmm".

Since childhood, no one in the family wanted Chen Suihuan to do any heavy work, but now he was forced to go to the countryside to farm.

When he thought of this, Chen Sui'an hated Old Lady Chen and the others so much.

The more I hate them, the more incompetent I feel.

"Sister, just wait. I will grow up quickly and become your support. By then, no one will dare to bully us anymore."

Chen Suihuan said yes again with red eyes.

After breakfast early the next morning, Chen Suihuan and her brother went to the shopping mall again. This time they came to buy watches.

Chen Suihuan was going to the countryside, and it was inconvenient to check the time without a watch.

The two siblings each bought one, and the ticket and the watch cost 125, which was really expensive, but fortunately Chen Suihuan was rich.

Selling the watch and the miscellaneous items I bought yesterday cost me several hundred dollars in total.

Chen Suihuan now has more than 2,400 yuan left.

"Sister, after dinner tonight, I will go to Uncle Qin's house. We will leave for the army before dawn tomorrow." Chen Sui'an said.

Chen Suihuan nodded: "Okay, let's go out and come back home. We'll make some dumplings later, as a farewell to us two siblings."

Chen Sui'an hummed softly, remembering that when his father went out, his mother always made dumplings for him, but now both of them were not around.

At noon, Chen Suihuan went to a state-owned restaurant and ordered two meals, one of braised pork, one of sweet and sour spareribs, and some vegetables. Both the brother and sister were a little full after eating.

After finishing his meal, Chen Suihuan continued to pack his luggage.

"I've almost packed my things. Let's send the luggage over first, and then go to the meat processing factory to buy meat and make dumplings in the evening." Chen Suihuan said to Chen Sui'an.

"I'm going to borrow Uncle Lin's bicycle." Chen Sui'an said and ran out.

Chen Suihuan's home was not far from the post office. A few minutes later, the brother and sister arrived there pushing three large packages.

After sending the three large packages, Chen Suihuan picked out a few more stamps and put them into the space.

Although stamps are not valuable now, they will be very collectible in the future.

Especially the Monkey Stamp and the "The Whole Country is Red" Stamp, which are very rare.

It’s just that the stamps with the whole country covered in red were issued in 1968, and now it’s 1975, so I don’t know if I can find them.

If you come across it in the future, be sure to buy it.

The time before parting always passed especially quickly. The brother and sister bought some meat and went home to chop it up and make dumplings.

As soon as the dumplings were served on the table, it was getting dark outside.

"Eat! Our separation now is so that we can meet again in the future. An'an, you must take good care of yourself."

"Sister, you too."

The two of them didn't talk much after that. After they finished eating the dumplings, Chen Sui saw Chen Sui'an off.

When she returned home again, the house was cold and she was the only one left.
