Chapter 18 I Want to Take Off Her Battery
The class group of Class 3 of Grade 3 announced that school would start the day after tomorrow. The hell-level dungeon of Grade 3 was about to begin. The group was filled with grief and everyone offered a stick of electronic incense.
Feng Ci couldn't feel at ease after seeing this unlucky thing early in the morning. The sun was already shining on his butt and Meiguo hadn't gotten up yet, so he put down what he was doing and knocked on the guest room door.
The door was not locked, and Feng Ci opened it with a push.
"Berry, get up and have breakfast."
The curtains opened automatically, and the bright morning sunshine filled the entire bedroom. The little man on the bed finally showed signs of waking up.
Feng Ci sat down beside the bed and pinched Meiguo's nose. This trick always worked, and the child who always stayed in bed opened his eyes.
"You're getting lazier." He chided her. "You used to never stay in bed and would get up as soon as you were called."
Xin's mind worked quickly. Meiguo turned over lazily and said something that Feng Ci had no way to refute.
"I am now the same as you were before. You should tolerate me as I tolerate you."
Huh? She even dared to mention that he now wakes up before dawn every day and sleeps for eight hours a day without fail because of someone.
It’s still her damn hot pot water.
Feng Ci, who was deprived of the freedom to stay up late, had a forced smile on his face.
"Today, you have to get up even if you say it's the end of the world."
Berry, who had been forced to turn on the computer, half sat up holding the quilt, with messy hair and sleepy eyes, and was reluctant to get out of bed.
Feng Ci gloated over the misfortune and deliberately asked, "Did you sleep well?"
Berry shook his head, and the small tuft of hair on his head jumped twice. He said honestly, "I don't know. You can come and smell me next time."
"...Stop being so joking. When you wake up, go brush your teeth and wash your face, and ask Aunt Luo to comb your hair."
"Oh well."
Meiguo responded obediently, and just as she was about to stand up, she fell back again, her little body stretched straight, and she said in fear: "Brother Feng, there are little ants crawling on my legs."
Feng Ci calmly held her ankle with his hand, and pinched her leg with his fingers: "Are you still there now?"
“No more.”
"This is called leg numbness. It's caused by not changing your posture for a long time and poor blood circulation."
So that's how the little ants came about. Berry patted his chest and vowed, "Then I'll move more even when I sleep to prevent the little ants from crawling over me."
After Berry finished washing up, he looked refreshed and energetic.
Feng Ci had already finished half of his breakfast, holding half a tea egg in his hand: "What do you want to drink in the morning? There is no soy milk today."
“Then I don’t drink soy milk.”
"Would you like some yogurt?"
Berry shook her head.
"Coke? Orange juice? Let me tell you first, you can't drink coffee."
Berry rolled up her sleeves and climbed onto the chair, swinging her short legs. "I don't even want to drink."
"Oh?" Feng Ci raised his eyebrows in surprise. "The sun has risen from the west, and you're actually drinking water obediently today?"
A child with a picky appetite only likes to drink beverages. Drinking water is like drinking poison to her, and she often wears a mask of pain.
Feng Ci secretly regretted more than once that he had cultivated bad habits for her.
"You guessed wrong."
Meiguo held her chin with her hands, her eyes rolling around. When she thought about what she was going to say later, she couldn't help but smile.
The child looked at Feng Ci and said boldly: "I want to drink your juice, you little fool~"
Feng Ci, who had just stuffed half an egg yolk into his mouth, turned green in the face. He quickly drank a big gulp of milk and nearly choked to death.
Feng Ci, who had luckily managed to escape with his life, announced coldly: "Your tablet is gone."
???
How could this happen?
The unfortunate child, who had no idea what had happened in just a few seconds, was completely confused and unable to accept this bolt from the blue. He was like a puppy that had been kicked for no reason, weak, helpless and pitiful.
After breakfast, Feng Ci and Mei Guo sat side by side on the sofa, and Feng Ci gave instructions like an old father:
"I'm going to start school the day after tomorrow. From that day on, you have to stay with Aunt Luo during the day. Remember the time. First, don't leave Aunt Luo as soon as you leave the house. Second, don't carry a small handbag when you go out. Even if you do, don't take it out in front of others. Third, don't act like a camelberry and pull a cart for other children."
The third point is Feng Ci’s biggest headache.
There have been fewer express deliveries recently, and I thought she would be happier traveling light, but this guy didn't force herself to do anything. He took the initiative to invite the kids he knew to get in his car and took them for a run around the street.
Camel Berry's name became famous because of her hard work in pulling the cart. Now the whole community knows that there is a hardworking Camel Berry!
Feng Ci was so angry that he confiscated her small trailer.
Meiguo heard the farewell in the words and suddenly looked nervous: "Can't I go out with you? I will be good."
Feng Ci: "I'm going out to go to school and can't take you with me. You stay at home with Aunt Luo. I'll be back when it gets dark."
"You're already that old, and you still want to go to school?"
The little witch Jiulouyu felt it was unbelievable. In the small town of Nange, only children went to school while adults were all working.
"We can see adults going to school everywhere here," Feng Ci explained. "Also, anyone under eighteen is considered a minor, and I just turned eighteen, so I'm not a fully mature adult."
He narrowed his eyes and coaxed me: "But since you are so reluctant to leave me, why don't you go to school in my place? I will pick you up on time after school."
Ah, Berry blurted out: "No, no."
Feng Ci folded his arms and looked at her.
The child's attitude changed 180 degrees, and she felt embarrassed. She explained in a low voice with a guilty conscience:
"You don't know how to make yogurt cakes. I'll stay at home and make them for you when you come back."
Feng Ci was reluctantly satisfied with this reason, but it also indirectly reminded him of something he could not avoid.
Meiguo has no household registration and no identity document. As an outsider with an illegal household registration, she cannot go to school.
The child will always grow up, and he can't keep him at home forever.
How to register berries became a new problem that troubled Feng Ci.
*
There are more than thirty sets of test papers during the winter vacation, but I haven’t changed a single word on the preface. I am just waiting for the last two days to create a miracle with a pen.
After explaining everything to Meiguo, he retreated to finish his homework, feeling as if he was going to be executed.
Feng Ci is the kind of poor student that makes teachers worry less. He has terrible grades, but he hands in his homework on time. Even if he doesn't know how to write, he will try his best to write a few words. He is much better than those students who hand in blank papers and don't care about the teacher's life or death.
But he was once the child of other people's families in the eyes of people around him.
The tragedy happened four years ago when his younger sister died while still an infant. The atmosphere at home has never been the same since then. The depression and dullness made him feel breathless. Since then, Feng Ci has suffered from insomnia and anxiety, difficulty concentrating, and memory loss. It is extremely difficult for him to learn new knowledge or memorize words and formulas.
When Feng Ci touched the book and saw the densely packed words, he couldn't help feeling physically nauseous.
Want to die.
Feng Ci kept hitting a wall in the sea of questions and couldn't feel the passage of time. When he felt dizzy and his head pounded, he looked up and saw that it was already pitch black outside the window.
"Brother Feng."
Berry called him from the door.
Aunt Luo is not a live-in nanny. She goes home after making dinner, so it’s just him and Meiguo at home in the evening.
Feng Ci pressed his aching neck and stood up to open the door.
But in just one afternoon, Feng Ci exuded a sense of dejection from the inside out, a feeling that no human child could understand: 'not wanting to die but not wanting to live that much either'. He looked much more mature.
"Brother Feng, are you unhappy?"
"What do you think?"
"Well, I think you're unhappy." Meiguo was not scared off by Feng Ci's low mood. She grabbed a ball of paper from her jacket pocket and placed it on the edge of his desk. "I'm here to cheer you up."
The dwarf, who was not even as tall as the desk, put one hand on Feng Ci's leg, using it to raise himself up. With his free hand, he opened the tissue like a present, revealing the pistachio inside.
"Eat quickly, it will be fine after you eat it."
Feng Ci had no appetite and was too exhausted to deal with her. He replied casually, "I have a mouth ulcer and can't eat anything dry. You eat it."
"Would you like some water? I can get you some."
"Whatever fruit you want to eat, I will wash it."
Feng Ci thought that Meiguo was probably bored and couldn't sit still, so she wanted to find someone to talk to.
It was indeed inappropriate to leave her outside alone, so Feng Ci changed his mind: "Don't bother, I can just eat pistachios."
"Let's eat together," he said.
"Thanks." Berry pulled out another packet from her right pocket. "I'll have this."
Okay, he forgot that she would not treat her mouth badly.
Feng Ci put one pill after another into his mouth, chewing them without any emotion, as if he was completing a task mechanically.
"Hey, wait a minute."
Meiguo shouted at him and snatched the pistachio from his hand: "Don't eat it, it makes you unhappy."
She grumbled in frustration, "You naughty fish that slipped through the net. I didn't even see you."
Feng Ci's eyes slowly focused and he saw clearly that it was a silent happy fruit.
He patted Berry on the head: "Why are you panicking? The biggest happy fruit is already here."
On the morning of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the senior high school students, filled with hatred and resentment, went to school in the dark. With the tiger away, the monkey became king, and Berry completely began her unruly and unruly life during the day.
One day, the little witch, unaware of the hardships of senior high school, happily picked up Feng Ci from school.
"Brother Feng, is it hard for you to go to school?"
"I have a hard life."
Every day after school, Meiguo would greet him first: "Brother Feng, did you have a hard time today?"
The resentful senior student gritted his teeth and rubbed her face furiously, "You'll know if it's bitter if you try it."
Meiguo broke free and ran away, stopping not far away to wait for Feng Ci. When she saw him approaching, she twisted her butt and ran away, teasing Feng Ci over and over again.
There were many people passing by on the road, and Feng Ci was afraid that he would get more excited if he continued to chase her, so he frowned and yelled at her back.
When Feng Ci grabbed the berry, she suddenly learned to walk backwards without any instruction, and laughed as she walked.
"Look, am I funny?"
"You're not funny, you just want a complete childhood."
He had only been in school for a week when she developed a new bad habit. Feng Ci foresaw that he would have endless worries for the rest of his life.
"Berry, you can't walk backwards, you'll fall flat on your face."
"I'll hold your hand so you won't fall."
Feng Ci asked her to stand still and walked around her, sometimes asking her to raise her arms, sometimes lowering his head to search in her flower bud. His abnormal and strange behavior made the child confused.
"Brother Feng, what are you looking for?"
Feng Ci said calmly, "Looking for your battery."
Remove her battery and give him some peace.
