C1 Twins
As the old saying goes, "Drink cold water to fill your teeth, eat mooncakes to smash your heels, pull the cart across the ridge one step at a time". He was talking about me, I am an ordinary and plain young man, not fighting, not scolding, not teasing women, not bullying old ladies, but I am such a good young man, it is not easy to live this long, just two words to describe me, bad luck.
My mother told me that I should have had a twin sister, this sister, who almost took my life.
When my mom was pregnant, she did B-mode ultrasound, and when she saw that there were twins in her belly, it made my whole family extremely happy. Three generations of singles, my grandpa laughed so hard that he could pinch flies to death. He took a long drag from his cigarette and said, "If these two kids were together, it would be worth it for me to die." The whole family became even happier because of a single sentence from my grandfather. The next day, almost everyone in the village knew that there were twins going to be born in my house, and they also knew that the two kids that my grandfather said were worth it even if they killed him. Every day, when they saw my grandfather, they would tease him: "Old Sun, do you want your grandson or your life?" Every time, my grandfather would smile and say, "Yes, always."
With the birth of a baby in October, it was about to be a ripe day, but my mother did not move. The hearts of my family members were burning with anxiety. It was normal to go to the hospital, and he didn't do any B-mode ultrasound to see the fetus. It had always been the beginning of spring, which meant that my mother was sixteen months pregnant. These extra six months nearly scared the whole family to death, but when she gave birth to her child, something even more outrageous happened.
It was said that in the maternity ward of the hospital, when the nurse carried out a child, my grandpa took it and my grandma eagerly waited for the second child, but the nurse only said, "It was just a child." The family's joy was gone. What about the other child? The two of them were clearly at home. After all, it was too bizarre. My grandfather took out the movie and watched it again and again. That's right, it was obviously two children, how could there not be one. After a while, she suddenly said to my grandfather, "This matter, we don't understand. You should go and find the Old Madame Liu right? We are holding it in for so long, how can we die?" My grandfather also said, "That's right, let's look for her. We don't have any more ideas, and only Old Madame Liu can find our grandson." As he spoke, he did not move. My grandma pushed him anxiously. "Then hurry up and go, what are you waiting for!" My grandpa also became anxious: "I actually think that my legs won't work anymore. Then, Tie Cheng should hurry. My grandfather told me when I grew up that he also knew that his other grandson couldn't be found, and that it wasn't as if he was lost. Where would I go to find him? However, when people were too anxious and wanted to find someone to rely on, Old Madame Liu would become the support of the entire family.
My father walked for a long time but didn't come back. The whole family was looking forward to it. My mother said, "How about I go out and take a look? I'm so worried." As she was about to put on her shoes, my grandmother said, "Where are you going? I'll go take a look." This was Old Madame Liu. She was quite short, a bit hunchbacked, neither fat nor thin, an ordinary old lady from the countryside who didn't look too surprising, but the feeling she gave off was different. In other words, she had a strong aura around her right now.
My grandfather was on the verge of tears. "Big sis, you're finally here. Look at how my grandson is gone. I'm going to die from worry." Old Madame Liu waved his hand: "Alright, let me see that kid." My mother carried me to Old Madame Liu and took it. She frowned as she looked at it and said, "Isn't this … a granddaughter, a grandson?" My grandfather hurriedly asked, "Big Sis, what are you talking about? Where's my granddaughter? My legs are too weak from anxiety. Don't speak nonsense." Old Madame Liu was not that old, but normally, when the old people in the village see her, they would be extremely respectful, because she really had the ability. Furthermore, she was a good person, and would help out anyone.
When Old Madame Liu saw my whole family, he was both anxious and pitiful. He slowly said, "You guys, don't be anxious, it's useless. That granddaughter can't be found. That little girl is in that boy's body." Who could understand this? The whole family was shocked. My mother said, "Aunt Liu, then what should we do? How can a girl like me not be able to come out?" Old Madame Liu said: "Even if she comes out, she's not your child. This girl lives in a boy's body. As he spoke, he turned me over and pointed at my waist. "Do you see this birthmark? This is a birthmark. Since when did the girl send it away? This birthmark can fade. Hearing this, the entire family was relieved, but they were still depressed. After all, they were waiting for the two children, even my grandma sewed two underpockets. After sending off the Old Madame Liu, my grandfather said: "This is fate, let's not be too sad. Isn't it good to have a child?" My grandmother also said, "That's right, maybe this girl will be ours from now on." My parents have nothing to say, after all this is too weird.
I thought that I would be lucky to follow Old Madame Liu's words. But who would have thought that I would have been through three disasters since I was young. He had just been born, so he should drink milk and pee himself. However, a hundred days had passed and something had happened.
Northeast people when the child is 100 days old, will invite relatives and friends. That day, there were a lot of guests at home. Many people knew that there should have been a pair of twins in my house, but they all knew that it was not a good thing. That day, my father drank quite a lot of wine. Since my grandfather couldn't drink anymore, he accompanied him in speaking, and the atmosphere was very warm. Especially when he saw how white and fat I was, and how everyone praised me for my good looks, my grandfather couldn't stop smiling. She turned me over on the brick bed and cried as soon as she touched the brick bed and lied down on her stomach. My mother opened my clothes and looked at my back but there was nothing wrong with it and the birthmark on my waist was normal as well, so I just laid down on my stomach and laid there obediently. But after a while, I also cried while lying down on my stomach without making any noise, but it scared the whole family, so much so that it was useless for them to feed me any hot water, causing my grandfather to turn around in a hurry up, said to my grandpa, "Go look for Old Madame Liu." My dad hurried off and came back after a while. He entered the house and said in a sobbing tone, "Aunt Liu is gone."
