make a wish

He gradually became acquainted with Jiang Xiaoshu.

Jiang Xiaoshu became his first friend in several years.

He is still not used to in-depth communication with people, and he has always retained that point of vigilance.

Jiang Xiaoshu was an accident to him.

He still does some odd jobs occasionally, most of which are physical work, and they are all places that do not require identity information, and he dare not do too long in each place.

Today, he helped people move the old furniture for a day, maybe he was very tired. At night, he fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

He didn't sleep well, and at night, he felt a convulsion in his chest.But he couldn't wake up.

The dream was chaotic.

In front of him was a dark passage with no end in sight.

He stepped on the broken and muddy road, holding the scars all over his body, and ran wildly.It was an absolute nightmare, with that man behind him.

That bloodthirsty maniac was approaching him step by step.

Suffocation, fear.

and overwhelming despair.

He woke up from the nightmare, his whole body was sticky and cold.

When I escaped a few times before, I had no experience.He was caught by that person within a few days.That was followed by a year of imprisonment and abuse without dignity or hope.

He tightened the quilt in his hand, waiting for all the emotions to dissipate.He went under the table and took a set of clean autumn clothes and changed into it.

Parents' pampering and indulgent laughter emerged in my mind, my heart was suffocated, and there was another stabbing pain.After they died, I couldn't even help them sweep the dust off the tombstone.

He is unfilial, he is useless.

Overwhelming self-loathing nearly swallowed him up.

He curled up in pain.

It's because I have blind eyes, who would have thought that the man he once admired and cared about would eventually become a nightmare that fetters his life.

Drowsy and fell asleep again.

When he woke up the next day, as expected, he still had a fever.

He got over the dizziness when he just got up, poured himself a glass of water, flipped through the bag, and there was still a bottle of eight-treasure porridge and half a bag of bread left.I just don't have much appetite, so let's just make do with it today.

He climbed back into bed again, and heard a knock on the door in a daze.

He covered his ears a little irritably, but the rented room in the basement was so big, the door panel seemed to be ringing against his ears.The temples are bulging and aching.Really annoyed by the noise, he opened the door with a dark face.

Jiang Xiaoshu's handsome face was revealed in front of his eyes.

"Make a wish, I will rest today, let's go out for a stroll together."

Wishing listlessly closed the door a bit.

"I'm not feeling well today, go by yourself."

Jiang Xiaoshu saw that there were two abnormal blushes on his face, put his hand on his forehead, and cried out in surprise.

"Ah, it's so hot, I'll take you to the hospital."

Wishing to avoid sideways head, the tone reveals alienation.

"I'll sleep on it."

Jiang Xiaoshu sensed it sensitively and slapped his head.

"I have antipyretics over there, don't close the door yet."

I really didn't have the strength to make a wish, so I closed the door and went back to bed.

Jiang Xiaoshu hurriedly pushed the door in with a small plastic bag.

He added water to the bowl on the table and cabinet, tore open a bag of cold clear granules, and blew a few breaths into the bowl.Finally, he took some antipyretics and anti-inflammatory drugs, and he passed the bowl to the bedside.

"Make a wish, take the medicine first."

Wishing to smell the smell of this medicine, he felt nauseous for a while, he turned his head reflexively, and frowned, his appearance was rarely childish.

Jiang Xiaoshu opened his eyes in surprise.

"Yeah, you're afraid of taking medicine." There was a smile in his voice.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this granule is sweet, put two pills on the back of your tongue, take two sips, and you'll be fine."

Wishing to take a look at Jiang Xiaoshu's immature baby face, and speaking words like coaxing a child, his heart suddenly softened.He thought of his mother, who had a smile on her face and gently coaxed herself to take medicine in the dusty past.

He took the bowl and swallowed the medicine.

Jiang Xiaoshu caught a glimpse of the autumn clothes he was changing out of, and picked them up without any hassle.

"I just haven't washed my clothes yet, so I'll help you do it along the way."

Unable to stop the wish, Jiang Xiaoshu drew two pieces of paper from the cabinet and went straight out the door.He folded the paper towel twice, twisted it into long strips, and stuffed it into the crack of the door. After closing the door, he gently pushed it twice to ensure that the door was closed securely.

He returned to his den and threw the dirty clothes into the basin first.I scooped some rice into the inner pot of the pressure cooker, and took it to the bathroom with the basin.

He washed the rice and went back to the house to cook it, then went to the bathroom to wash his clothes.

When I went back, the aroma of rice porridge had already wafted away.He filled the top layer of porridge oil and added a few spoonfuls of porridge grains.When the temperature was right, I took the bowl and pushed open the wishing door.

Wishing to sit on the head of the bed at this time, when he heard the sound, he turned his head to look at him.

Jiang Xiaoshu handed over a bowl of mushy porridge and greeted him to get up, his black and white pupils were full of clarity.

"Come and eat something warm, the fever will go away quickly."

Wishing to see Jiang Xiaoshu like this, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of irritability.He turned his head away and said in a cold voice.

"You go about your business, I don't need your care."

Jiang Xiaoshu didn't understand why he provoked this person, but he understood that sick people always have a little temper.He didn't care about it, and still persuaded in a gentle voice.

"Even if you don't have an appetite, you can eat some. What I shave is porridge oil, just like boiling water, just swallow it directly, without chewing."

Wishing turned his face away more and more irritablely, and finally just lay down directly.

Jiang Xiaoshu put down the porcelain bowl in his hand, glanced at the man again, and walked away awkwardly.Before closing the door, he hesitated to look inside again, but after thinking about it, he still shut his mouth.

Don't look at his usual bluffing, he is actually very cowardly.

He came to this strange city alone, and he was very uncertain in his heart.But he made a promise to his family that he would break out of the world.

In the beginning, it was really difficult.People in big cities spoke standard Mandarin, and he always felt that he seemed a little out of place.

Fortunately, he's a quick learner, and gradually he's learned a little bit of accent.

The first time he saw Wishing, he felt that he had a very special temperament.Just like the rich man on TV.Even though he lived in the same basement as himself in desperation, and the food was not as good as his own, but he just felt that that person was different from anyone he had ever met.He just wanted to be close to him, to make friends with him.

He didn't know why, the man obviously wasn't so cold towards him anymore, why he got angry again now.

He went back to his room, stirred the remaining rice porridge there, added some water, turned on a small fire, and continued to boil there at a set time.

He went to the market to buy a box of salted duck eggs and some side dishes.The basement couldn't fire, so he broke some bones, bought a root of corn, and planned to boil it in the afternoon, and sent some to the man by the way.

Jiang Xiaoshu frowned, friends in big cities are really hard to make.

Making a wish also felt a little inexplicable.He knew where his anger came from. To Jiang Xiaoshu, he was indeed innocent.

Jiang Xiaoshu's clear eyes were pure and straightforward.All the goodwill and care are directly on the face.

How can there still be such a stupid person.

He stood up, took the porridge on the bedside, and drank it one mouthful at a time.
