More than once, I looked at Xiaomei’s back and watched me change seventy-two times in the wind and rain. This is when she sang. I really hope that this back in front of me will break free from shackles in music, run through the Wuhan bell tower and jump back to the Sichuan train, and she will get smaller and smaller and finally return to the lonely Sichuan town when she was nine years old. She got into the rape flower with bare feet. She talked about it that stretched for more than ten kilometers.
The fact is that Xiaomei, who was born in the guard, will die in the guard, just like the one who wrote that Eugene O ‘Neill was born in a hotel, damn it, and died in the hotel. These are his last words, and the world around us is vast and watertight, and it will not stop. In the end, each of us can watch it continue to operate silently.
On June 7, Xiaomei was executed for cowardice, and I didn’t go to see her off.
Burn the begonia tree
One day I will cut it down. Before it rains, in the thunder, she told me that she said it was in front of our eyes, full of flowers. It was nothing but a begonia tree.
The day after tomorrow, it suddenly became dark, and the thunder turned to thunderbolt. When the rain was mixed with flowers that sparkled and hit the begonia flowers, one of them fell into the ground and floated to a pulled manhole. Before several ups and downs, it was swept in by the water in the manhole. At this time, she cried.
In fact, I know that she has been crying almost every day, and she has to find a place to cry because she is afraid of being heard by the children in the ward. She secretly lowered her voice to cry. Many times, she met her with red eyes and red nose, and her shortness of breath was too late to calm down because of sadness. It is hard to hide that she just cried.
Why didn’t she cry? The couple sang in a small troupe for 15 years, but the troupe collapsed, so that they could leave their children to work separately. When the couple hurried home, a window pane suddenly broke and fell on his knee. It was a skin injury. After simple dressing in the clinic, they went home. I didn’t know that the wound seemed to be healed, but it was quietly rotting. By the time the couple hurried home, the leg had to be amputated.
This is not the end. The family seems to be under a spell, and the bad luck is like the river burst its banks. Once it surges, she will never see the head again. In a small hospital, the couple amputated their limbs, but the wound was repeatedly infected. There was nothing they could do. The couple borrowed money and went to live in a bigger city 300 kilometers away. There was a begonia tree in the hospital. Just a week later, when the husband went to buy an egg fried rice for his son, he came face to face in the courtyard. A truck carrying medical equipment was killed by the begonia tree alive.
Her husband’s clothes were full of blood on the tree trunk. She was suddenly called to the bottom of the begonia tree from the hospital bed. She wore a shoe in winter. She was scared silly and didn’t cry. She looked at her husband’s body and the chaos in front of her eyes. Everyone was shaking and shaking for two months. Then she stopped arguing and shirking the lawsuit. The truck didn’t belong to the hospital and killed her husband. The driver was also poor. Now the hospital reluctantly agreed to treat her son. She can even work as a cleaner in the ward in exchange for a little life. But so far, no one has compensated her. She is still numb in the hospital
But she doesn’t seem to care about the compensation lawsuit. I want to say that all her thoughts are on the way to the meal of the begonia tree. When she is in a daze in the corridor outside the ward, she stares at the tree in her eyes like a tragedy. Only by cutting it down or uprooting the curse can she get rid of the bad luck and stay away from her. But in fact, she has nothing to take away.
I’m going to cut it down one day. She says this when she meets people. Maybe it’s because I’m accompanying patients in the same ward as her son. She will say a few more words to me. She will talk about her husband as if he were not dead. If I stare at that tree for ten minutes, I can see that he is much thinner than before and angry as if he wants to quarrel with me. He blames me for not taking care of my son and him, but we have never quarreled before.
People and I didn’t actually take her seriously, but we were all wrong. Suddenly, one night, the ward building came to argue and cried for me. The ward looked at the knot in the corridor and saw her dimly. At the bottom of the light, she was tearing her hair with several security guards, holding a kitchen knife. Of course, she didn’t want to kill the begonia tree, but how could a kitchen knife kill the tree in such a short time? Not long after, even the only weapon was lost. The security guards easily lost her kitchen knife.
The next day, she cut down the begonia tree almost all over the hospital. Some people went to see the tree specially, but in fact, they couldn’t see any trunk. However, some branches were cut off and scattered in the grass next to them. These branches of flowers didn’t seem to decline, but they didn’t seem to know each other. The trunk was beheaded, just like when she was cleaning in a ward or a ward, she was still greeting people. If people needed help, she would run to give them a hand as before, but she didn’t seem to know that people were actually quietly.
But people who live in the world haven’t been needed for a moment, and she is no exception. Nurses’ Day is coming, and a literary evening will be held in the hospital to celebrate the baby-care bed. The nurse found her and said that several of them were going to dance a body dance, but the number was not enough. Instead, when she came, they danced together, and everyone had to make up a little more, she would definitely not be recognized.
The nurse in charge of the bed said that there was an eager light in her eyes. When the other party finished speaking, she also promised that there was no delay. It is no wonder that she entered this hospital, even the most exciting thing for her. So after cleaning the ward the next day, she left work. It was a good thing for the nurses on the roof to rehearse and dance with her. When she was staring blankly at the begonia tree, I could vaguely hear her laughing in the corridor. Everyone was laughing, and she was laughing louder than the nurses.
By the time they came into the ward from the rooftop, laughing and joking, almost all the people present found that she had almost become another person. Oh, my God, she actually reached out to help the nurse’s hair and then dusted the nurse. After dusting, she also pinched a little nurse’s face and blamed her for not taking care of herself. How shocking it was. In the past, how could she think of herself? Today, the little nurses have all gone away. She still stared at each other’s back for a long time. Yeah, how can she let this fall from the sky so easily? Intimacy is now in the team. She and they are partners but partners. When this dance is over, the nurses will become nurses again. For herself, this short dream is like a dream. Don’t become a cleaner again, an amputated teenage mother.
Not only did I see it, but almost everyone saw it. She was spending time, and she really couldn’t bear to part with it. She almost found a rope to hang herself on the roof and never came back.
After all, it’s still a problem. On the day of the theatrical performance, I also went to see a show for everything, and it didn’t take long for them to dance. The music was Beijing News to the frontier. She wore a lot of makeup. If she wasn’t familiar, she would definitely not recognize her. She was the best dancer in the group, and her movements were warm and not frivolous. Of course, she became a dance center, although her partners were much younger than her, and she could be called aunt.
But it was only a few minutes ago that she suddenly stopped in amazement. The dancers were still dancing, but she was the only one who didn’t dance. Of course, the dancers urged her. After she hurriedly jumped a few steps, she cried and stared at the southwest corner of the audience. Later, she almost cried. No, I have been in charge of it. She actually fell to her knees on the stage and said nothing. Then she was recognized as a nurse. She was driven off the stage together with the dancers, and she continued to look at her mouth in the southwest corner.
According to her later, she screwed up everything because she had an illusion in front of her eyes. She actually saw her husband in the audience. She knew it was an illusion and ignored it, but her husband suddenly became furious and said that she cared about dancing. She lost her mind, but anyway, she could never get close to the nurses again. Now the nurses are more than alienated from her. It’s simply disgusting. You have walked in the crowd once or for a year, and you can still be alone in the end.
Now that she has more leisure, she will have more time to deal with the begonia tree again. Although the flowering period will be exhausted, it will still be gorgeous. Often, parents take their children to the begonia tree to pick one or two flowers and then jump for joy. When she meets me, she will tell me angrily that these people, I think they want to bring disaster home and stop. Suddenly, when the thunder rings, she swears once again that I will cut it down one day. Don’t believe that I will cut it down after the rain stops.
I still didn’t take it seriously when she gritted her teeth, but this time I was wrong. She really didn’t cut it down, but she set fire to it. About a week later, there was a sudden uproar in the courtyard after midnight, shouting and screaming. I ran to the corridor to have a look, but I couldn’t help but gasp, but the flowers of the begonia tree were all lit by fire, and the flames were burning fiercely, but I never expected that it was her who claimed that she would cut the tree. She was also on fire at the moment. Crying and running blindly with flames, although the security guards gradually approached, they could also look at each other, and they could hear her cry more and more piercing and heartbreaking. After waiting for several minutes, she waited until someone came running with a fire extinguisher.
She once served a bodhisattva, and now she should smash it and amputate it. When her husband dies, she always hates something. She always looks for it. She hates a tree, and then she retaliates against it, but the bad luck is not over. On the contrary, she is still waiting for her to see her come near, so that she will not be dragged over. Don’t let her fall into deeper sorrow, and even if she can live, she will be laughed at for this night’s behavior. At first, she didn’t know where to get a bucket of gasoline and took advantage of the midnight. In the corridor of the ward, she spilled a bucket of gasoline on the tree. She was so anxious that the gasoline was spilled on herself. She didn’t even notice that the spilled gasoline didn’t stop for a moment. She ran downstairs and aimed at a flower filled with gasoline and lit a match. She didn’t expect that the Haitang tree burned together and returned to herself.
