Chapter 45: Young and Her Big Brother
She was born in a poor mountainous area, the na of the village has been forgotten, even her own na has been forgotten, or perhaps was never rembered. All she rembers is that she was the second daughter in the family, with a brother one year older than her.
One day, her mother suddenly took her to a big city. The tall buildings, so different from the village, dazzled her young eyes, and she didn’t notice the complex look in her mother’s eyes.
When she looked back, her mother was nowhere to be seen. Being young, she couldn’t comprehend that she had been abandoned.
Unable to find her mother, she stood on the bustling streets crying. The novel high-rise buildings and the endless stream of cars felt like beasts ready to devour her innocence.
“What’s this, sitting in the middle of the road? Do you want to die? Where are your parents!” A furious voice rang out, making her cry even louder.
“Alright, Uncle Zhang, why get angry with a child?” A gentle voice intervened, stopping the man’s scolding.
The boy squatted beside her: “Little sister, where are your parents? Why are you here alone?”
As if there was magic in his voice, the young her instinctively felt a sense of dependence, clutching tightly at the big brother’s coat: “Mommy, mommy, can’t find her, wah…”
“Oh, got lost, huh? Alright, Uncle Zhang, let’s take her to the police station.”
She vaguely rembered saring her snot and tears all over the big brother’s clothes, feeling sowhat embarrassed now at the mory of their first eting.
The big brother took her to a very clean place, which Young later learned was called the law enforcent bureau.
“So, this was a preditated abandonnt?” It seed the big brother was sowhat angry, but at that ti, she didn’t have the capacity to understand his words.
“Yes, it happens every year, and most of the abandoned are girls,” said a handso uncle, also looking quite angry.
“How do you usually deal with such cases?” The big brother asked seriously.
“We can only register them first and then send them to an orphanage. If it’s really a case of getting lost, it’s fine, parents will usually co looking. But if not…sigh.”
“I see.” The big brother seed a bit dejected.
At that ti, knowing nothing, she tugged at the big brother’s sleeve: “Brother, don’t be angry, being angry is not pretty.”
Unaware that the big brother was saddened for her.
“You guys make the registration. I’ll take this little girl to the orphanage.”
“But this child doesn’t even know her own na, even if we wanted to register, we couldn’t,” the uncle was troubled.
“At most, we can only register the address where she was found.”
“That will have to do, what else can we do!” The big brother shook his head helplessly.
Then, the big brother once again took her to ride the big black monster, talking to her along the way, saying things she should listen to in the future.
At that ti, she didn’t understand, but seeing the big brother so earnest, she couldn’t help but rember his words.
The big brother brought her to a yard and after talking with an elderly grandma, knelt down to her.
“Alright, you’ll live here from now on. Rember what I said, listen to the grandma here, okay?”
At that ti, she didn’t understand anything, only knowing that this big brother, who made her feel safe, was leaving her here, she cried non-stop.
But no matter how much she cried, the big brother still left.
In the days that followed, she was very obedient, just as the big brother had said, listening to the headmistress. She also learned that everyone here had the sa na.
Called orphans.
Children that mom and dad don’t want.
When she learned the aning of this word, for the first ti, she was disobedient and cried. She wasn’t a child that mom and dad didn’t want, she had mom and dad.
She cried for a long ti, her voice went hoarse.
But it couldn’t change the fact that she was an abandoned orphan.
Crying and crying, she stopped thinking about it.
Not knowing how long she stayed in the orphanage, the big brother ca again, she was very excited, bouncing around the big brother, who gently stroked her head, asking if she had been obedient.
“I’ve been very obedient!” She proudly boasted to the big brother.
“Good, keep it up.” The big brother said.
“If I keep listening to grandma, will big brother co to see often?” She asked loudly.
“Of course, so be a good child!” The big brother tapped her nose, smiling beautifully.
After a few months, when the big brother ca again, she had a na, called Xiaong, given by the headmistress. She said she hoped her life would have dreams, a peaceful journey, although she didn’t understand what it ant, the headmistress looked very happy when she said it, so it must be a good na.
She said, when she grows up, she would find a surna for herself. She was very happy.
Happily shared the news with the big brother.
“That’s good, Xiaong, Xiaong, sounds nice.” The big brother smiled beautifully, it must be a very good na.
“Big brother, what’s your na? Grandma said, people who are kind to Xiaong, I have to rember their nas, she said when I grow up, I have to repay them. What does repay an, big brother?” Xiaong asked innocently, biting her thumb.
“Big brother doesn’t need Xiaong’s repaynt, so Xiaong doesn’t need to know big brother’s na.” That’s what the big brother said.
In the end, she never knew the big brother’s na.
Years passed, Xiaong looked forward to the days when the big brother ca the most. The big brother seed busy, only coming every few months, but that was also the happiest day for Xiaong.
To have several happiest days a year!
She was satisfied.
Unconsciously, she grew up, but she never stopped missing the big brother. However, she never knew the big brother’s na.
Grandma said, the big brother was doing good deeds anonymously.
But Xiaong wanted to know the big brother’s na, no matter how much she asked, the big brother just wouldn’t tell her.
Sotis, the big brother would ask her what her dreams were, and she would proudly say, she wanted to be a scientist when she grew up. But when she asked the big brother what his dreams were, he would just say he hoped to live a worry-free life in the future.
Xiaong didn’t understand, but she thought the big brother was very amazing.
Later, the big brother’s visits beca less frequent. Was there a problem?
Xiaong was very nervous.
She really missed, really wanted to see the big brother!
Day by day, waiting but never seeing the big brother again, it had been half a year since the big brother’s last visit, and the little girl’s heart was filled with anxiety.
“Big brother must have encountered sothing and can’t co. Since big brother can’t co, then I’ll go find him!”
With her belongings, including a toy bear given by the big brother, Xiaong sneakily slipped out of the orphanage.
Of course, she didn’t find him. In such a big city, it’s hard to find a person, especially when she didn’t even know his na. Clutching the bear, Xiaong passed out from hunger on the roadside. When she woke up, she was already on a ship heading overseas.
The person who brought her over was called Ye Chen. Just like that, she beca a mber of Tianlong.
She gave herself a na, Young, because the big brother said Xiaong sounded nice, and grandma said, “Having dreams” leads to a peaceful life.
