ill-fated
There is a famous Yue opera called "Nine Catties Girl", and I am a fat boy weighing 9 lbs., 6 taels. My mother suffered a heavy haemorrhage after giving birth to me and has been relying on hormonal drugs to maintain my health, so I have never had a sip of milk since I was a child.
There was no milk powder at that time. I grew up eating plain eggs and rice porridge soup. When I grew up, I would get headaches and nausea when I saw eggs. My grandma and my eldest sister Zhao Juqin would cook some rice porridge soup together.
They stewed eggs and fed me little by little. At that time, my grandma had to go to the brigade to "earn work points," so my eldest sister took on the responsibility of taking care of me. She carried me from east to west, and carried me on her back.
I saw my second sister and my third sister jumping rubber bands together. Of course, taking care of me seemed to have nothing to do with my second sister and my third sister. Until I started to remember when I was about six years old, I still remember walking around in the village every day.
When I get home tired from playing, my face is covered with mud and sweat. My eldest sister will pour some hot water for me to wash my face and hands before eating. In addition to teaching my children through words and deeds, my father will also ask the four of us to go to the fields.
When we work to harvest rice, each person takes turns to cut a group of rice. Of course, I, who is very energetic, cannot escape the responsibility of harvesting rice. It’s just that when we work in groups, the rice group of my three sisters obviously has many more rice plants than mine.
Even so, after the eldest sister finished her task, I managed to cut less than a quarter. She ran up to me and smiled at me, then waved to me and pointed to the cut she had made.
The movement of the rice means: You go and play, I will help you cut it. Yes, you can see that the eldest sister is mute, and the second sister is also mute. This is also the most guilty thing in my father's heart. Later, my father took over the family
Everything in it told me: when the eldest sister was 2 years old and the second sister was 6 years old, they both caught a cold and had a high fever that would not go away. At that time, my father was the backbone of the business in the unit, an elite soldier, and got up early every day.
I was so busy that I had no other choice. My mother called Zhu Yirong, a barefoot doctor from the brigade, and first gave my eldest sister a cold medicine, lenithromycin (this medicine was not even allowed to be used on animals at the end of the last century).
Then the eldest sister became deaf and mute; due to his busy work and negligence, the same scene happened again when the second sister caught a cold. At that time, the second sister was already 6 years old, could talk about everything, and became a follower.
Same as my eldest sister. When my father told me about this sad past two years before his death, he said that I always remember their voices when they called me dad. I really want them to call me dad again! So in order to make up for it.
The mistakes he made when he was young and the deep guilt in his heart, he said that he must help his eldest sister’s son to train until he graduates from college, and then he will come to live with me in Kunshan. I’m sorry that I couldn’t help you raise your son (referring to me)
