The Internet virtual screen in lighting mode is like a small artificial sun, suspended above Sabrina's head, illuminating her way home.
Public security in the small town is very poor, and it gets even worse at night.
Therefore, walking at night is really not a good choice, especially for girls.
Sabrina isn't afraid, though.
Because she looks too safe.
Looking at her from the back, some people believe that she is a berserker.
The wooden basin piled with clothes was placed on the shoulders, looking like a huge mountain, so towering that no one could feel any peeps at it.
But Sabrina couldn't be prouder.
Because of this appearance, he was okay when he was a child, and he was invincible against all his peers.
But as she grew older, her end gradually came.
In the face of vague discrimination and blank eyes, she gradually became withdrawn and eventually became alone.
"Why are you coming back so late? Are you avoiding making dinner again? You lazy girl, you only know how to eat all day long! How much can I sell for that 200 kilogram sow? How about you? Take a shower The clothes are tattered and still have such ink stains.”
As soon as she got home, Sabrina was cursed by her mother.
—My mother has always been worried about her not being able to marry, probably because she disliked her for being too good to eat.
Sabrina said nothing.
She was hanging clothes to dry in silence, most of which were private jobs taken over by her mother.
She is so fat and can eat so much that she is out of breath even after taking two steps. It has been difficult for her to find a suitable job. There are not enough jobs in the small town, and washing clothes is one of the few jobs she is qualified for.
After drying the clothes, the scolding mother served the food and waited for her to serve it.
During the meal, there was inevitably another round of nagging about marriage, and the target had changed from Ma Gan in the west of the city to an old widower in the east of the city.
For the sake of the rice in the bowl, Sabrina listened silently until she was full, then nodded and promised to go and see if she had time on the weekend.
After washing the dishes, it was already past nine o'clock.
Sabrina returned to the house, lay down on the squeaky wooden couch, and fell asleep after being so tired that she touched the pillow.
In a daze, she was thinking that maybe it would be better to listen to her mother and find someone to marry, so that at least she wouldn't have to repeat the same boring and hopeless life every day.
The next day, it was dark and she woke up on time.
At this time, her mother woke up earlier than her and was boiling water and ironing clothes.
She took the initiative to pick up the bucket and went out to fetch water.
In the early morning in the small town, there was deathly silence.
Except for a few hard-working people, most of them were still immersed in their dreams. Sabrina turned on the Internet while walking.
Suddenly, she was surprised to find that a "99" red badge appeared on the Internet karaoke icon.
The mark stunned her.
While doing laundry, she would often hear some girls complaining that these badge marks were too annoying and asking for ways to turn them off.
Sabrina doesn't have this trouble, because few people come to her, and no one leaves messages on social media.
So the "99" mark suddenly appeared, which surprised her.
She clicked in and took a look, and her whole body suddenly froze.
"The girl sings so beautifully!"
"Wow, what kind of angelic voice is this?"
"Isn't it Kenan who plays the trumpet?"
"Great, let's sing one more song!"
"I'm already a fan, how about adding a friend?"
I saw a lot of message prompts popping up on her Internet karaoke profile page, and many people even applied to add friends.
This made Sabrina, who had almost zero sense of existence, tremble all over and feel an incredible feeling.
When she clicked in and took a look, she realized that this was a crazy message she had received from her subconsciously singing a song when she clicked on the Internet K-song last night and "sing a song" in the user guide.
She accidentally clicked on the song she sang last night, and as the melodious music floated out, she could hardly believe her ears.
Is this the song she sings
Against the graceful background music, her voice seemed to be endowed with noble attributes.
No, to be precise, Sabrina's voice isn't bad to begin with.
When she was a child, she loved singing. She especially liked singing while working, which made her feel that time passed very quickly.
But gradually, she stopped singing.
On the one hand, it is out of shame;
The other side is also afraid of being laughed at.
Only occasionally when she was doing laundry alone by the river, she would still hum a song or two to entertain herself.
She never thought that one day she would receive so much praise for her singing! ! !
She read every comment carefully. When she occasionally saw a typo, she would stop and think carefully about what word it was. The indescribable sense of recognition made every cell in her body hum with joy. stand up.
She wanted to laugh, but was a little shy.
The thin mist hits the face, refreshing and comfortable.
Soon, she reached the street well.
Next to the well, Grandma Gladstone was struggling to rock the roller.
She closed the virtual screen, walked over and said, "Grandma Gladstone, let me help you!"
When she said this, she had a smile on her face, a very satisfied smile.
With full infectious energy.
She actually deliberately found an excuse to vent her excitement.
Otherwise she could go crazy holding it in.
"Oh, I'm sorry to bother you!" Grandma Gladstone said gratefully.
"You're welcome!" Sabrina said.
After fetching the water, Grandma Gladstone praised with a smile on her face: "Little Lina is really capable. Whoever gets it in the future will definitely have a prosperous life."
Sabrina blushed. This was the first time she heard someone compliment her like this. For a moment, she was flattered and at a loss.
On the way back, facing the deserted streets, Sabrina couldn't help laughing.
In my mind, there are all the complimentary messages on the Internet karaoke, as well as the compliments from Grandma Gladstone.
A few brilliant colors seem to emerge from the boring and unchanging life.
When she got home, her mother stared at her with a strange look on her face and said, "Are you feeling spring? Why are you so happy?"
"Huh?" Sabrina was stunned for a moment, realizing that she might have been too complacent. She quickly stopped her smile and waved her hand: "No... no, I just saw a joke on the Internet."
"Really? What kind of joke are you so happy to tell me?"
"Huh?" Sabrina was a little embarrassed. She had an idea and quickly entered the Internet through the soul login mode, searched for jokes, and told a random one.
"Puch..." Unexpectedly, my mother, who was always scolding and scolding, actually burst into laughter.
Sabrina was even more surprised that her mother smiled so kindly!
"This joke is interesting, haha. I have to tell it to them later." Mother laughed and said, "I went to work. I have heated up the leftovers from last night, eaten them, and ironed the remaining clothes. Iron it well and send it to others as soon as possible."
"Got it." Sabrina nodded seriously.
After her mother left, she tiptoed to the door of the yard, furtively stretched her head to watch her mother walk away, and her serious posture suddenly relaxed.
She was boiling water, filling kettles, and ironing while jumping around;
While opening the Internet karaoke.
Soon, melodious singing echoed in the courtyard.
Perhaps, Internet karaoke can never change Sabrina's life, but Sabrina's living situation will change because of it.
