The person Sang Bei admires most is his sister.
Sangzhi handed the chopsticks to him and said, "Eat the dumplings while they're hot, or they'll get cold."
It is a tradition passed down in the bones of the Chinese people. They eat dumplings during festivals, happy events, reunions and farewells.
It is hope and also sustenance.
Sangzhi made pork and green onions. Because it was cooked from a short distance and wrapped tightly, it is still hot.
For so many years, he had been eating coarse grains from a big pot, and he only ate a few fine grains throughout the year. When the gravy and the aroma of noodles bloomed in his mouth, Sang Nan felt as if his taste buds came alive.
"Why is it still hot?"
He ate two bites and was reluctant to leave any for the two of them.
Then he asked, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, where did you find out my location?"
He had sent letters home in the early years, but without exception they fell into the sea.
Sangzhi had just returned from the countryside, and his uncle and aunt probably didn't even know his whereabouts. How did Sangzhi find him?
"I found out about it with my uncle and a friend, and then my friend introduced me to Director Zhang, who brought us here. We've been staying at Zhang's house for the past two days."
No wonder Director Zhang came over just now.
And help yourself out.
It’s all thanks to my sister.
"well."
After Sangzhi removed the needle, she urged him to eat dumplings quickly. She brought a lot of dumplings, and it was rare for Sangnan to eat too much.
As soon as she finished eating, she asked someone to try on her newly made cotton coat and trousers to see if they fit.
If it's not suitable, I can ask someone to change it while she's here.
Sangnan tried it on and found the cotton jacket very fluffy and warm. The cotton pants were a little short, but it didn't matter much.
"Brother, wait for me for a moment."
The tailor was really far-sighted. She knew that she didn't know the size, so she made it a little bigger and raised the bottom part.
If it fits, that's best. If it doesn't, put it aside.
After Sangzhi removed the circle of thread, the length, weight and shape were just right.
But only then did she realize that she was too careless.
My brother's autumn clothes have become deformed and have many holes in them.
It is inconvenient to buy things inside, and there is no family member outside to help him.
Maybe he has no replacement now.
What I should have thought of.
Sangzhi decided to prepare some underwear for him next time he came.
The labor camp is freer than the prison, and most of the time people are doing manual labor, but they have half a day every week to learn how to organize the house and purchase things.
It’s actually a holiday.
There is also a cafeteria and a shopping area inside, and you can buy things freely on the day of rest.
Sangzhi planned to visit him again that day.
Although they felt that they had just met and not much time had passed, the supervisor was already urging them.
The usual visiting time is half an hour.
They both spoke for over an hour.
It’s okay to give some convenience, but I’m also afraid that if it goes on for too long, people will target me.
Before parting, Sangzhi hurriedly stuffed money, food coupons and several reliable books into his package.
The medicine didn’t work, so the corrections officer singled them out during the inspection, saying that they could only take medicine prescribed by the doctors in the prisoner hospital.
The guards will distribute the drinks on time, determining how many types and how much to drink each time.
Only then did Sangzhi realize that there was a hospital for prisoners in the labor camp, but it was located in a specially enclosed yard inside the staff hospital.
When the time came, the three brothers and sisters reluctantly said goodbye.
Before leaving, Sang Nan did not forget to touch his brother's head and give him some advice.
"With my eldest brother away, you are the pillar of the family. Remember to help your sister with any burdens..."
Sang Bei nodded.
Sang Zhi couldn't bear the parting atmosphere, "Brother, we'll still be here for two days. I'll find another chance to see you. Remember to take good care of yourself. We'll wait for you to come home."
This meeting was too hasty. After the person's back disappeared from my sight, I forgot to ask him about the specific circumstances of his frame-up.
I also forgot to ask him what happened to the injury on his face and whether he was bullied.
Alas, it’s just that our meeting time was too short.
But the brother and sister didn't know that Sang Nan, who had been like a stagnant pool of water before, had a smile on his face after seeing them, and even his usually heavy footsteps became lighter.
My brother and sister are still alive!
They came looking for him!
I have hope.
………
Seeing the person I missed, the tension I had been feeling in recent days finally relaxed.
The sleepiness from not getting enough sleep last night came back strong, so they both took some sleep.
When I woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
After a good sleep, people are in a good mental state and will also realize that they are hungry.
When I was cooking for my eldest brother in the morning, there was still a lot of stuffing left. Everything was ready, so I just ordered dumplings with bread.
The plump dumplings floated on the water, and she poured water three times before taking them out of the pot.
"Go and deliver a bowl of dumplings to the sister who delivered green onions to us this morning across the street. We've been bothering her for a few days and we don't know how to bother her."
Director Zhang's family uses large bowls, and this colander can't fill it up with at least fifty pieces.
You can imagine how expensive meat dumplings are these days.
Mulberry branches are not like others who like to play tricks or do face-saving projects, so they only use small bowls.
Although only the ones that appear full are sticking out, there are actually only about twenty of them.
Seeing that Sang Bei was struggling to hold the noodles, she slapped the noodles off her hands.
"Why don't you let me take it."
"Need not!"
He took a deep breath, picked up the bowl, and walked out carefully.
After about four or five minutes, he came back jogging with a bowl full of millet in a clean bowl.
"Aunt Hong said that Uncle Zhang's family must be short of rice since he hasn't cooked all year round. She asked me to make you some porridge."
Sang Zhi put it away. Actually, she had never thought about receiving any gift in return when she gave the gift away, but the other person's actions made her feel happy.
