Finally, he secretly ran away, and when he came back, it was his sister who got beaten up.
He had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but the fear of being punished prevailed, and in the end he said nothing.
However, he always felt a little sorry for his sister. That one yuan was deducted from his living expenses for the week, and it was a kind of compensation for Lingyun.
Ling Yun also vividly remembers Ling Yong running off to play in the water; it was the first time she realized that her status at home was lower than that of the old yellow dog.
That day, Ling Yong went out to play.
Zhang Huixiang was frantic. The whole village was searching for Ling Yong, as she thought he had been lost.
They couldn't find him anywhere in the village. Zhang Huixiang sat on the ground and wailed in desperation. Lingyun comforted her, saying, "Mom, don't be sad. Your brother might have gone to play. He'll be back tonight. Besides, I'm here."
Zhang Huixiang raised her hand and slapped Ling Yun across the face, leaving him stunned. "It's all because of you, you jinx, that your brother disappeared. If Ling Yong doesn't come back, you'll see how I deal with you. I'll beat you to death!"
Ling Yun's ears were ringing from the slap, and tears streamed down her face. Even though she was young, she knew that Zhang Huixiang didn't care about her, didn't love her, and only had Ling Yong in her heart.
In that instant, her heart ached as if it were being torn apart. She wished she were the one who had been lost, and she just wanted to know if Zhang Huixiang would be worried and heartbroken if she were lost.
However, she still didn't have the courage. She had to report to Zhang Huixiang even when she was only two kilometers away from home, for fear of hurting Zhang Huixiang's feelings. The more she couldn't get the affection from her family, the more she longed for it.
It wasn't until the moment of her death that she finally understood that she should never have expected Zhang Huixiang's love in her life. Zhang Huixiang's only child was Ling Yong. Ling Yun was just a stepping stone for Ling Yong's life. In Zhang Huixiang's eyes, she was not even as good as a guard dog.
Ling Yong is gone.
I'm home.
Zhang Huixiang looked behind him and saw nothing but bare ground; Ling Yun was nowhere to be seen. She became furious.
"You rode back by yourself? Didn't Lingyun give you a ride?"
Ling Yong lowered his head. "No, my sister said she won't be coming back this week."
“That lazy good-for-nothing is afraid of tiring you out by riding her bicycle, but she doesn’t even consider that her little brother is young and might hurt his bones if he rides for too long. Does your leg hurt? Let Mom rub it for you.”
Ling Yong frowned. "It's nothing, I want to ride a bicycle."
“Riding a bicycle for a long time will hurt your knees. My son is going to do great things in the future, so you have to protect your knees. If Lingyun gives you a ride on her bicycle, then you can ride back on your bicycle. If she doesn’t give you a ride, then you should take the bus next time. The road is so far, what if you get lost? The family doesn’t need your money. Just focus on your studies.”
"Hmm!" Ling Yong felt a little annoyed. He didn't agree with Zhang Huixiang's words, but he couldn't find any reasons to object. He felt a bit frustrated.
After settling Ling Yong in, Zhang Huixiang continued her tirade: "That little bitch Ling Yun thinks she can get away with anything by hiding at school. I knew she was a menace. She's always causing trouble at school, bullying her classmates and getting one of their mothers to come to our house and have a fight with me. I don't think she can hide forever. Next Monday, I'll take you to school and bring your good-for-nothing sister back with me. You can't be like Ling Yun, you know?"
"I understand!" Ling Yong continued sullenly.
