Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 47 Plan

   “Take biscuits today, do you want to eat it?” Miao Miao shook her backpack.

“Wow!”

   “Sister Miao Miao is so good!”

   “I want to eat, I want to eat!”

  Looking at the children eating biscuits, Miaomiao thought quietly in her heart whether her sins would be lessened.

  Dad, mom, have been letting themselves do things they don’t like.

  Every week, Miao Miao would be like this. He suddenly appeared in front of the children one morning, and disappeared from the village in the evening.

  Every week, Dad will bring out a few strange children or women from the basement.

  Every week, Miao Miao will take them and follow the villagers to the mountain overnight under his father’s order.

   “Dad, who are they and where are they going to be taken?”

   “Those are all lost people, we are going to take them home.”

  Although my father said this, I already knew the truth about this matter.

  Don’t want to do this, but…

  Sister Hua Cong is a rare person who stays in the village.

  I just heard my own voice. When Sister Hua Cong first met her, she chose to believe in herself.

  Every time she smiles at herself, the loneliness and despair behind each smile makes Miao Miao painful.

  Miaomiao has been saddened by Hua Cong’s sister’s story, but she has no power to change.

  Two forces bite and quarrel in Miao Miao’s heart.

   “Sister Hua Cong, actually…I…I don’t…”

   “What I promised you was actually just…”

   “Then why are you telling me?”

  Sister Hua Cong had a calm expression on her face that she hadn’t expected, as if she had known it all morning, staring at Miao Miao’s eyes.

  Miaomiao gaped, “I have… tried hard… but this is really, really difficult…”

   “Miaomiao, are you willing?”

  Sister Hua Cong wanted to say something, and finally pressed her lips, leaving Miao Miao with a meaningful expression.

“I…”

“I…”

What can    say? Miaomiao thought to herself, what would happen if she was not reconciled.

   “Miao Miao,” Sister Hua Cong’s hand touched the back of her hand, her eyes seemed to convey power, “I have a plan, let us, let them, all choose one more opportunity in their lives, okay?”

  There is light in my sister’s eyes.

  Although it has been dimmed for too long, it can still be seen at a glance. It is the light of life.

  That is the light of hope.

  This kind of light seems to have not appeared in front of me for a long time.

  I want to catch this light, I want to choose this light.

  Miao Miao clenched the hand of the flower bush, his eyes gradually reddened, and he nodded hard.

  ——————————

  ”How can you let children do this kind of thing!”

  Pineapple looked incredulously at his ten-year-old boss.

  This is the basement. Under the pale light, everyone is sitting around the filled dark hole, listening to the boss and his wife narrate this incredible past one by one.

  The boss lowered her head, urgencyly, and the lady boss sat aside and wiped her tears.

   “Miao Miao went to deliver the goods again that day, just to send the children,” the boss looked dull and straight, “At night, Miao Miao hadn’t come back. We called to find out that something went wrong.”

“Miao Miao took the children and ran away. This is what the village chief told me. Taking advantage of a major event in the village, Miao Miao took the children and ran away. The village was full of people looking for it for a day. Seeing their shadows, we hurried up the mountain, crying and screaming, how could we not find our Miao Miao, and since then, we have never seen my Miao Miao again…”

   “What happened in the village?” Maple asked.

  The boss shut up, and turned his eyes to look at the boss with a guilty conscience.

The lady boss wiped away her tears and said, “Three years ago, we sent a girl up to the mountain. The girl was spotted by a bachelor on the mountain and stayed in the village. The little girl ran several times, and one time she ran here. When the edge came, a little girl ran down the mountain with one pair of feet. I wanted to save the girl, but he didn’t agree… Then the girl was still caught by the villagers. The villagers told me that that day, the girl ran away again. The men ran out to arrest people. Miao Miao took the children and left the village while the men were away. No one knew where they went. The villagers told us that Miao Miao in my family was afraid that we would scold her and left home. I ran away, but I think it must not be like this, my Miaomiao, she will definitely not…”

  The lady boss choked as she talked, she covered her face and lowered her head, shaking her shoulders, and sobbing again.
