Pure White Core

The narrow ward was filled with the pleasant smell of disinfectant. Huihui was sitting on the edge of my bed leaning against the iron railing, holding the book "Doraemon" that we had read [-] times and could memorize it backwards. Turn over.Huihui was sad for a long time when the cover of the comic book fell off recently and could not be found.

Logically speaking, I have already planned to stop talking to her, but now that I have a broken leg, I don't have the energy to argue with her, and I can't say anything even if she is sitting here with a big face.

There was a loud noise from the corridor outside: "No. [-], Ward No. [-] is here!" The blue-painted wooden door of my ward was pushed open, and seven or eight students in middle school uniforms surrounded me like bandits. Squeezing in, the shrill voice of the little boy's voice changer made me shudder, and Huihui looked at the door stupidly.

A chubby girl with short hair ran to the bed next to me first, looked at the clothes and the apples in the plastic bag, pulled them up and shook me and Huihui, and yelled loudly: "Whose thing is this? Put it in someone else's place." position!" His face was full of disgust: "Do you have a sense of public morality!"

"Ours!" Huihui quickly jumped down and took my dirty clothes and three apples in a plastic bag from her hand.She is too small, like a little flea in front of female middle school students.

"Squad leader!" The chubby girl just removed the things on the bed, and another boy who looked very smart spread out the folded quilt: "Here, here!"

A group of people were rushing back and forth, and I didn't even see clearly whether the person in the crowd was a man or a woman.

I was annoyed at first, this group of people chattering in the ward is like a frying pan with water on it, and it makes people's brain hurt.Huihui was a little afraid of this group of "adults", and shrank towards me, but in my eyes, these "adults" were just bastards with no hair.

After a long time of quarreling, their teacher came. The young female teacher could not speak clearly, and she talked for a long time before calming down the group of flies. Daddy wants to stay and take care of the monitor.

"Qin Kai's parents have received a call, and they will be here soon. Don't cause trouble, go home and have dinner, and classes are still in the afternoon!" Only a few Lai who said that their homes were too late to go home continued to squat next to the hospital bed.

I had my back to these little flies from the beginning to the end, covered my head, and I didn't feel much sleepy at first, but now I was chattering with this group of people, and I couldn't sleep anymore. I felt uncomfortable all over, and my legs hurt badly.

"Yu Shaorong, Sun Jinliang asked me to tell you that I will give you a little lamb on Sunday, do you want more?" Huihui couldn't leave her eyes from the three bright red apples by her legs, and asked me while swallowing.

"I want it." Sun Jinliang is the rural boy who used to fight with Niu Laxiang. I bought a lamb from him for five yuan, but I can't let my money go to waste.

"Why do you want it?" Huihui pointed to my leg that was bound in plaster: "You can't go out, he said he would give you Sunday."

"Why don't you help me get the lamb first on Sunday and take care of it for me." I really have no choice but to entrust my lamb to Huihui first.

Huihui scratched her head and whispered, "You said lambs need milk, but I don't have milk powder..."

"..." An embarrassing silence.

That's right, Huihui has no money to buy milk powder, and my mother has confiscated all my money, and she won't buy me milk powder either.

If there is no milk powder, the unweaned lamb will starve to death even if it is brought back. What can I do?

I can't even get out of bed.

"Huihui, can you do me a favor?" I looked up at her.

"En." Huihui nodded without thinking.

"You go to the public yard at Beijiekou after school in the afternoon to find my sister, Peiyuan, and ask her to take care of my lamb for me, or if she wants to see me, you can bring her here, okay?"

"I can do it." Huihui nodded her hairy head again, her two crooked braids curled up.

Now no one can help me, I can only rely on Sister Pei Yuan, she can help me raise the lamb, even I am thinking, if she wants to come to see me in person, I will tell her where I hide the ring , Sister Peiyuan might save my life.

"Yu Shaorong, why don't you eat apples?" Huihui asked me.

"I don't like it, I'll give it to you." I gave her an apple.

"You are a patient, you want to eat apples." She stared at the apples and swallowed. Apples in the cold winter months are actually not expensive, but our family rarely buys them.

"I don't have an appetite, so you can eat it if I give it to you." I picked up an apple and stuffed it into her hand. To be honest, I eat too many delicious fruits, so I don't like this apple.

"I don't like to eat it either." She put the apple back into the plastic bag: "I'm going to school, and I'll come and see you after school in the afternoon." After saying that, she jumped out of bed and went out without looking back, for fear that she might change her mind Same.

The room was very quiet, the bed next door was silent for a while, I felt weird, turned around with difficulty to see those little boys who had begun to chatter, turned their faces away unconsciously, I don't know what they were thinking.The boy lying on the hospital bed covered his eyes with his arms, only a small section of wheat-colored wrist and slightly upturned lips could be seen.

Only ten minutes later, someone pushed the door hastily again, and a white-haired and well-dressed old lady hugged her grandson on the bed distressedly and yelled heartily, which made several students next to the class monitor look at each other in dismay. Comforting my grandma like coaxing a child is even more sensational than me and Huihui.Compared to that monitor, his parents are a little bit better, at least they know that the problem is not a big deal and they don't make a fuss.

It wasn't long before the monitor's classmate went to class, and his parents seemed to be busy with work, and they took the old lady away after a while, leaving the monitor on the narrow bed with a large bag of fruits and food to pick out slowly. I love bananas.

I have my arrogance, and I don't bother to take the initiative to talk to people. The monitor in the next bed probably thinks the same way, so I didn't make any more noise, and lay down to sleep quietly.

Although I was sick and had no appetite, but I didn’t eat all morning and noon, and my stomach was upset. I held an apple and wiped it with my hands and gnawed it slowly. I hoped that the afternoon would come soon, Peiyuan. Come quickly, sister.

Time passed so slowly that the squad leader in the next bed stretched and woke up from sleep, but there was still no news from Miss Peiyuan whom I was looking forward to.

Outside the iron window, I can vaguely see the dry branches swaying in the wind, like some kind of hypnotic prop, which makes me unable to move my eyes away. The irritability and depression in my chest are also growing. I want to go to the bathroom, but no one helps I.

"Hi, kid, what's your name?" The monitor on the next bed was probably bored, and he turned sideways and waved at me.I was staring at the window behind him in a daze, and I happened to see his face, which was upright, with the corners of his lips curled up very nicely.

"Can you call the nurse for me? I want to go to the toilet." I felt very shameless, but at this moment, the face was useless, and I was about to explode.

"Hahaha..." He grinned, "I'll call for you." As he spoke, he took off the quilt, put on the cotton slippers brought by his mother, and jumped out.

Finally a doctor came to save me from the crisis. After solving the problem, I felt relaxed. At the beginning, I put aside most of my prejudices about the "monitor" in the next bed. Although his classmates were noisy and his grandmother was very sensational, others Seems to be fine.The main reason is that he has good facial features, clean and good-looking. Although he is not as good-looking as me, I always have a little bit more affection for good-looking people.

"What are you looking at?" He blinked and smiled again: "What's the matter with your leg, is it serious?" He really looks good when he smiles, he looks very clean, there is no extra emotion, it reminds me of Liu Fan for no reason, I think he might be as handsome as Liu Fan when he grows up, or he might not.Liu Fan is from Beijing, from a big city, and the squad leader is just a local chicken from a small county. Although the clothes on his body look okay, there is still a sense of stupid rusticity. This is the soil of the times, and no one can escape.

"..." I didn't reply to him, mainly because I didn't want to talk about my leg, if it wasn't for it, I wouldn't be cornered now.

"Do you have a notebook and a pen?" I asked him.

"No, what did I do with that in the hospital." He shook his head, "Why do you want that?"

What do I want to do?I want to arrange my funeral just like in a dream.

I don't know how much it cost my mother to send me to the hospital, probably not enough... and there won't be many guests.I think I probably don't need to worry about the funeral, because in our custom, children under the age of eight are "soulless". There will be the sensational funeral I imagined, and no one will wear a suit and say "Hewasagoodman."

The blue sunlight outside the window gradually turned yellow and then orange, and the monitor's mother in the next bed warmed up chicken noodle soup with the electric stove brought by him, and the aroma filled the whole room, driving people crazy.

"Kids, eat some too. Auntie cooks too much. My brother can't eat it alone." The auntie with a blue and white hairpin on her head handed me some hot noodles. I didn't answer but shook my head. I feel like I'm going to die.

I just want Sister Peiyuan to come quickly, come and buy me a big bowl of beef noodles, come to put on the pure white anchor, come to save me like I saved her, and take me out of this ward, away from this dirty, old A small, humble and disgustingly rotten county town.

"Crack~~" The door opened.

Huihui came in with a broken schoolbag and an iron jar, and came to my bed. There was a shadow peering in from the door frame, not Miss Peiyuan.

"Yu Shaorong, are you hungry?" Huihui asked, inhaling the smell of chicken noodle soup in the air deeply with her nose.

"Hungry, how about you?" I took the iron crock in her hand, which contained steamed buns and fried potato chips that had been moistened by water vapor.

"I haven't eaten yet, save some for me." She said as she took off her schoolbag, "That..." She looked towards the door, her expression hesitant to speak.

"Did you help me find sister Peiyuan? What did she say?" I didn't rush to eat, but asked the question I was most concerned about first.

"Well... I went. There is no one in her house. The neighbor said that there was a problem with the stove in her house the night before, and she was choked by soot..." Huihui tilted her head thinking, trying to repeat what she knew.

"What does it mean to be choked by soot, what about sister Peiyuan?" I was anxious to get up, what does this mean?

"Your sister Peiyuan was also choked by soot." Huihui shoved the chopsticks into my hands while taking a can of water from her schoolbag: "She and her parents are dead."

"Huihui, don't joke with me, where is sister Peiyuan hiding, tell her to come out quickly, don't tease me, I'm annoying." My voice trembled violently,

Huihui pointed to the door and said to me: "I'm not joking with you. They are really dead. If you don't believe me, you can ask Gao Xiaolin. He took me with him, and he knows."

I looked at the red scarf who was holding on to the door frame but didn't dare to come in with a questioning look. The red scarf said unnaturally: "It's true."

"..."

I sat slumped on the bed, and suddenly my world was spinning.
