Northern Myanmar, the hell on earth I experienced

You must know that pretending to sleep is a very physically demanding thing, or so I feel.

Because you have to listen to what's going on around you all the time.

I was lying on the bed all over, but there was an indescribable panic in my heart. To be honest, I was afraid that Brother Hao would do that to me again when he came back and saw me on the bed. I was also even more afraid that Brother Hao would blame me for not going down to my ex. Open the door for delivery.

This feeling of lying on the bed waiting for Brother Hao to come and punish me is just like when I was young and I made a mistake and was afraid of being beaten by my adoptive parents, so I ran to hide it in the closet or in a big vat, even though I always got a meal at the end. He was beaten severely, but he still had the mentality of hiding as long as he could.

After I stayed in bed for a long time, I heard two women's voices coming from downstairs, but I couldn't make out what they were saying.

Since I couldn't pretend any longer while lying on the bed, I simply got up, then tiptoed to the door of the bedroom, and then listened carefully with my ears raised, as it seemed to be Ali's voice.

But I still couldn't hear what they were saying. I quietly sneaked to the balcony to take a look, but I didn't see Brother Hao's car, so I concluded that Brother Hao didn't come back, but asked Ali to come over and open the door.

The reason why I am so sure is because if Brother Hao was there, they would definitely not laugh so loudly. I could hear their laughter even from upstairs.

At this time, I was a little curious about what they were talking about, so I turned around and quietly opened the door, but I still couldn't hear clearly, so I simply quietly walked out of the bedroom and walked directly to the corner of the stairs.

At this time, the two of them suddenly stopped laughing. I swallowed, thinking that the two of them had discovered me, but when I quietly poked my head out, I found that they hadn't. The delivery woman took Ali's hand.

"Ali, I didn't expect to see you again. I thought you would have..."

"Sister Hong, I thought I would never see you again."

After that, the two of them hugged each other and cried. Seeing them crying made me feel a little sore in my nose. I couldn't help but shed tears because I couldn't stand others shedding tears in front of me.

If my adoptive mother hadn't cried and begged me to make some changes and told me nonsense that she would definitely let me live a good life, I wouldn't have tried so hard to disguise myself as a good girl and grow long hair.

"Sister Hong, are the sisters who are with us still there?"

"No more, all gone."

"Oh, I'll go to the earth temple to burn some paper another day."

"Okay! I'm usually busy and don't have time to burn it. You can help me burn some for them then! I'll give you some money to buy paper. Don't buy all the paper. Keep some for yourself. You are different from me. , although I am in the Spring Exchange and have to endure the torture of those beasts every day, I can at least make some income, and besides eating and drinking, and buying some clothes and cosmetics, there seems to be nothing to use the money here. Come on, take it, that's it Too much, never too little.”

Sister Hong said as she took out a wad of banknotes from her pocket and stuffed it into Ali's hand.

After Ali took the banknote and glanced at it, she quickly waved her hand to reject it and stuffed it into Sister Hong's hand.

"Sister Hong, this, this is too much. You can't use that much to buy paper."

In the department store next to the cafeteria in the park, everything is expensive, but paper money is the cheapest. It's even cheaper than what's sold outside. The supermarket owner is a Chinese, and he probably couldn't bear the condemnation of his conscience, so he gave a big discount in this regard.

"Take it! I don't know when we will meet next time, or whether we can meet again."

"Sister Hong can't."

"Well, I hope so!"

After that, the two of them started to stir things up again, talking about the past.

After a long time, Sister Hong said to Ali:

"Ali, I'm sorry, I can't be out for too long. There will be fines for going back late at the Spring Exchange. You know this, so let's talk about this first! By the way, take a look at these goods. Put them all somewhere, it’s getting late, I have to go back after unloading the goods.”

Ali looked around and pointed to the corner.

"Why don't we just pile them here first!"

"is this okay?"

"It's okay. If it needs to be sorted out, Brother Hao will have someone come over tomorrow to sort it out."

"That!"

Then the two began to move the goods one by one.

I originally wanted to go down and help, but after thinking about it I decided not to. It would be a bit embarrassing if they knew that I deliberately didn't open the door upstairs.

So I just tilted my head and watched quietly.

After they finished moving all the goods, Sister Hong happily took out two cans of beer from her carry-on bag and handed one to Ali.

"Ali, I don't know if I will see you again in the future. I remember we said before that we would drink wine and eat meat together. We can't eat meat. But I happen to have wine here, so we made this wish come true today. Bar!"

"Okay! But Sister Hong, it's inappropriate for you to have to drive for a while!"

"It's not illegal to kill someone here, so what's the big deal if you're driving under the influence."

Ali took the beer from Sister Hong and nodded.

"Too!"

Then Sister Hong took out two ham sausages from the bag.

"There is no meat but ham, don't you mind!"

"Sister Hong, I haven't eaten anything like ham sausage for a long time, so why would you mind? It's not too late for me to be happy. Thank you, Sister Hong, for having such delicious food and still thinking of me."

After hearing what Ali said, I frowned.

No, didn't I give her some ham and bread yesterday? And she ate it in front of me yesterday, how could she say she hadn’t eaten it in a long time?

"Hey, it doesn't matter. If you like to eat in the car, I will move a box for you later."

"One box?"

"Yeah! Oh, this is Old Liu's car in the Food Alley. Isn't he selling sausage burritos there? He has a lot of them in his car."

"That's not good!"

"It's okay. At most, I'll just accompany him once tonight."

After hearing what Sister Hong said, Ali quickly shook her head.

"Sister Hong, let's forget it!"

"It's okay, just take it for you! I can only exchange food, drink or money through this kind of transaction. I have long been indifferent to this kind of thing. In my opinion, this kind of thing is the least valuable. Yes. I’m not bragging to you, I’ve slept with hundreds of men. Men only think about that kind of thing.”

After Sister Hong finished speaking, she turned around and looked at Ali again.

"Actually, sometimes I envy you. Although sometimes I lack food and drink, it is much better than me working hard every day and being forced to open a business. Before, I always thought about leaving here, but now I Suddenly I looked away, and it’s up to me wherever I go!”

"Sister Hong, I actually envy you. I've been hungry a lot in the past two years, and sometimes I'm so hungry that I can't sleep. Fortunately, you can at least make money. As for me, I have to pay for just one bite of food. Doing that kind of thing with them, Sister Hong, if I hadn’t still thought about the two children at home, I wouldn’t want to live.”
