He's clearly heartbroken

Chapter 260 Extra Story (2): The Dusty Diary
A few days ago, when Tian Duan Duan was sorting his clothes, something fell out of the pocket of a down jacket.

Picking it up, it turned out to be the diary of the Great God that her mother-in-law had given her before.

The diary lay quietly on the floor, and a corner of a page was accidentally turned over.

Duan Duan didn't want to peek at it at first, but when he saw the beautiful small characters out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but bent down and picked it up.

This should be the handwriting of the great master when he was still in elementary school in Jiangning. It is slightly jerky, but every stroke is extremely powerful. It is hard to imagine that it was written by a ten-year-old child.

Recalling her horrible ugly words when she was a child, she was instantly ashamed and ashamed.

However, after reading the first diary of the Great God, the mood in my heart has quietly changed.

*
On the umpteenth night after moving to the compound, I still had insomnia until five o'clock in the morning.

It's strange and messy here.

The children downstairs were always clamoring for popsicles at night, and they would not be quiet until they were taught a lesson by her father.

Every time I hear that cry, I will be irritable, but also envious.

Because she has her parents by her side, she is very happy.

*
Grandma fell ill in the rain and went to the clinic to get an IV in the afternoon.

I forgot to bring my keys when I came back from school, so I had to sit in the corridor all night.

In the dead of night, a small head stuck out from under the steps, looked at me for a while, and then called me brother.

I didn't answer her.

She took out a peach from her cloth pocket and stuffed it into my arms, saying that it was her favorite fruit and it was very sweet.

Unfortunately, I threw the peach on the ground.

*
The next day, she stopped me in the corridor again, this time it was Peanut.

She said I was sad all day long, and eating peanuts would make me happy.

I sneered and still threw the peanuts on the ground.

*
Children are very persistent.

From now on, every day, she would stop at the entrance of the corridor on time, and stuff things for me in various ways, almost all of which were food.

I wonder if such a gluttonous child will be easily deceived by food in the future.

At that moment, I suddenly realized that at some point, I started to care about a child.

*
There was a call from Rongcheng, saying that they would not be able to go home again during the Spring Festival this year.

This is the fifth Spring Festival that my grandmother and I have spent alone in Jiangning, and we are used to it.

Also on New Year's Eve, I remembered the name of the kid downstairs, Duan Duan.

Now she doesn't clamor for popsicles at night, but Wangzai's steamed buns.

I couldn't help frowning, what a foodie.

*
After the beginning of spring, my sleep was still poor, and I kept having nightmares at night. Gradually, my grandma began to notice my condition.

In order to reassure my grandma, I forced myself to think of something else before going to bed.

For example, think about the way the kid downstairs was beaten.

*
Yesterday, I went to the market with my grandmother and met my classmates.

On the way home from school in the afternoon, they laughed at my grandma's lameness in front of me. In a rage, I wrestled with them.

There were three of them, and I quickly lost ground.

After a while, the kid downstairs rushed out from nowhere, led a big black dog and chased the three of them to the small road and ran back and forth dozens of times.

The sun was setting, and in the dim afterglow, the child and her dog came back victorious.

For the first time, he felt that this kid named Duanduan was pretty good-looking.

*
Duanduan's family had guests today, and her mother cooked a large table of meals.

That night, the couple dragged my grandma and me downstairs to her house for dinner.

A funny thing happened.

A gourmet show was playing on the TV in the living room. Duan Duan dropped the bowl and chopsticks and ran over, hugged the TV and gnawed on the hamburger on the screen, making everyone in the room dumbfounded.

At that time, I also laughed.

*
In the past few days, there have been heavy rains in Jiangning, most of the streets have been flooded, and the muddy water in the yard can reach the knees of adults.

At night, I vaguely heard the cry of a child coming from the yard, the voice was somewhat familiar.

I turned on the flashlight and went downstairs. It turned out that Duan Duan's family was looking for the big black dog lost by her family in the dark.

I tried to find it together, but to no avail.

*
The whereabouts of the big black dog was unknown, and Duanduan was depressed for a month.

I remembered seeing an abandoned little black dog next to the trash can on the way home from school in the afternoon.

I went back and brought the stray dog ​​back, trying to send it to the crybaby downstairs.

I never thought that after seeing the puppy, the little girl would actually smile.

*
The little black dog grows up day by day, Duanduan has to go to school during the day, and his parents have to go out to work.

She was worried that the dog would be too lonely at home, so she bought a small tortoise from the market to accompany it.

The little tortoise was too timid, and as soon as the dog approached, it retracted its head into the shell, which was very embarrassing.

Duanduan ran upstairs and begged me to go out with her to walk the dog after school every day, and called her brother more than 20 times in a row.

I relented.

*
Since then, the mode of walking the dog after school has been started.

At first the little black dog barked at me, but then slowly rubbed its fluffy head against my trouser legs.

A gloomy person like me will be liked by dogs one day, and there is still a cure for it.

*
This weekend, Duanduan rarely came upstairs to play with me.

Not long after, there was an intermittent piano sound downstairs.

Duanduan's mother is a piano teacher, she must be teaching the little girl how to practice the piano.

However, Duan Duan's talent is not high, and her mother quickly gave up.

The sound insulation effect of the old house is not good, I can clearly hear the long sigh of my aunt.

At that moment, I couldn't help but laugh.

*
After winter, grandma's rheumatism became more and more serious, and her body was not as good as before.

I secretly called Rongcheng once, and my grandma scolded me after she found out.

It is not easy for parents to work hard outside, let me not distract them.

I went back to the room in silence, and since then, I have never thought of calling the couple again.

*
As the winter solstice approaches, every household in Jiangning hangs sausages.

Grandma is not in good health, so she didn't fill the sausages this year, but she still bought some mutton to make soup.

The smell of mutton soup quickly attracted the snacks downstairs, and grandma scooped up a big bowl for Duan Duan with a smile.

She held the bowl and drank with relish, and made a gurgling sound, without the restraint that a girl should have.

But I can't hate it, and even like it a little bit.

*
I have been sleeping much better recently and have fewer nightmares.

Often the peach tree in the yard would appear in my dreams, and I could vaguely see the figure of a little girl playing under the tree.

But what worries me is my grandmother's health. The old man is stubborn and refuses to go to the hospital for an examination.

I watched my grandma lose weight day by day until the tragedy happened.

*
Grandma fainted and was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer.

In the early morning of the second day after entering the intensive care unit, my parents rushed back from Rongcheng.

After seeing grandma for the last time, the mother cried and fainted in front of the hospital bed.

In the end, when I saw the strange yet familiar faces of my parents, that kind of resentment was deeply pressed into my heart.

*
On the day I left Jiangning, the sky was drizzling.

Duanduan followed her parents back to her hometown to visit relatives. The downstairs was quiet, making the sound of my footsteps in the corridor all the more obvious.

For some reason, I quietly took the little black dog away and named it Moon.

For me, the owner of the moon is the light in my countless long nights. Whenever I think of it, it is touching and I will never forget it.

I think my illness should be more serious.

-

-

Seeing this, Duan Duan's cheeks were covered with tears, and the following content is about brother A Zhan's life after moving to Rongcheng with his parents.

Onset of illness, taking medicine, hypnosis, and psychotherapy that lasted for a year in the dark.

The lines of handwriting gradually blurred in Duan Duan's smudged eyesight, until finally he couldn't make a sound.

When Pei Zhan opened the door and came in, the girl was sitting on the cold ground with her legs curled up, and the dusty memory was spread out in front of her, which made his heart twitch violently in an instant.

Sensing the familiar breath, Duan Duan slowly raised his head, with a strong nasal voice, "Brother Ah Zhan."

Pei Zhan leaned over and gently lifted the girl from the ground, his warm lips brushed over her forehead like feathers, and his voice was low and hoarse: "Baby don't cry, it's all over."

No matter how dark it was before, having her now is the light in the world.

Lu Duanduan is Pei Zhan's light.
