Chapter 3

Er Ni was holding Xiao Mo in her arms, followed by Steel Dan and Tie Dan.At this time, Er Ni was under 10 years old, Gang Dan was 4 years old, Tie Dan was 2 years old, and Xiao Mo was under 1 year old.Rather than saying that Erni is the head of the child, it is better to say that she is a babysitter. Erni started helping her mother with steel eggs when she was 6 years old, and she has 4 years of "working experience".Steel Dan, Tie Dan, Xiao Mo, which children wet their pants, bumped into each other, and Erniang blamed Erni.When Erni went to change the wet pants for her brother and sister, the mother would slap Erni easily.Later, Erni learned to be good, and carried her younger brother and sister to warm and dry her pants before going home. Although she was careful, she would inevitably make mistakes, so she was often beaten.At the beginning, Mother beat her, she hid and ran, and Mother caught up to her and beat her harder. Later, she stood there with her head in her arms, neither hiding nor crying, thinking: As long as she doesn’t hit her head, she won’t change. Stupid, stupid, she is willing to ask her mother to beat her to death, but she is not willing to ask her mother to beat her stupid, because, after death, she will not be angry anymore, and being stupid is a burden to the family.It may be because of the action force and reaction force. Later, my mother didn't need to hit it with her hands, she just picked up something and hit it.

One day, Steel Dan and Tie Dan were chasing each other, but Tie Dan fell down and blood oozes from his forehead.Mother heard Tiedan crying, stopped spinning flowers, and said, "Erni, bring the child to me."

Erni hurriedly hugged her younger brother to her mother, and her mother took the child, seeing that there was no belongings around her, she turned her head to look around, and said, "Go and get me a broom."

Erni didn't think too much, and obediently ran to get the broom and quickly handed it to her mother.Niang took the broom and beat Er Nifu, and said, "It's not good to hit you, I don't want to bring children, so I go to spin flowers."

Erni was so angry that she sat down in front of the spinning float, and followed her mother's posture: holding the tassel of thread with her left hand, shaking the spinning float clockwise with her right hand, pushing her legs straight, but the thread could not be drawn out, so she had to The next best thing is to continue to take care of the children.Erni was 11 at that time.

Gang Dan learned that his second sister was taking the blame for him again, so he came to explain to his mother.Er Ni pulled the steel egg up and left, not letting her brother explain, because she knew that all explanations would be futile, and mother was never willing to move a finger of her precious son. The 5-year-old Gang Dan shook off the second sister's hand, put his hands behind his back, stood in front of the second sister to block the way, blinked his eyes, and asked: "Second sister, does it hurt when mother beats you? If it hurts, you cry hard Ah, why don't you cry?" Erni thought to herself: Silly brother!Can sister not hurt?She herself didn't know when, when her mother beat her, she didn't know the pain and didn't know how to cry, and she didn't know when she didn't want to explain anything to her mother anymore.Erni grabbed the naive and cute steel egg, and immediately, tears filled her eyes, and she stroked the thin braid on the back of her brother's head.Tie Dan also ran over, yelling for Second Sister to hug, Steel Dan broke free from Second Sister's arms, turned his head to Tie Dan and said, "We both need to treat Second Sister well when we grow up!" 3 The year-old Tie Dan puffed out his small chest and said loudly: "Okay!"
