Chapter 1542 Grave of Fireflies(2/2)
"Little baby, sleep well, little Doudou, sleep well..."
Fireflies danced beside him, and Little Doudou slowly fell asleep on his brother's back.
However, the good times did not last long. On this day, a group of national soldiers from the islands came outside the village.
After they entered the village, they gathered everyone together.
Because the brother took his sister into the mountains, he escaped.
But when I returned to the village, I saw the village was ablaze.
The villagers were gathered together and brutally killed.
The brother quickly covered his sister's eyes, not daring to let her see this scene.
The innocent sister still didn’t know what was going on, so she innocently asked her brother: “Brother, I’m so hungry, when will we eat?”
At this time, a gunshot was heard, and the brother quickly hid behind his sister.
In order to prevent his sister from making any noise, the brother took out the candy box, poured a candy out of it and put it in her mouth.
Waited until dark.
Then my brother ran out quietly, but the island soldiers had already left.
But the whole village was deserted. My brother saw many familiar faces in the village, all of them collapsed there.
He saw his aunt's family.
He didn't know what to do, his stomach growled, his brother wiped away his tears fiercely, and then returned to his aunt's house.
After searching for a long time, I found something to eat.
He quickly took the things to find his sister. After eating, the sister fell asleep tiredly, but she still called her mother from time to time.
My brother doesn’t know what to do next?
He didn't dare to take his sister outside because there were all those cruel beasts outside.
Fortunately, it is safe here for the time being, but there are no people around.
Everything seemed to have returned to calm. My brother went to cut firewood and search for food from every household in the village that had no one left.
However, this place has long been looted by the island soldiers, and the food available is very limited.
However, there was no need to go hungry for the time being. The elder brother took his younger sister to the mountains to cut firewood, fetch water, and cook.
He didn't know what to do, and he was afraid. He would always cry secretly at night after his sister fell asleep.
But he knew he had to be strong.
Because he promised his mother that he would protect and take good care of his sister.
Days passed, but there was less and less food to eat, so he could only go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables.
At night, my brother went to catch fireflies to comfort his sister. He caught many fireflies.
They were released together. Inside the mosquito net, fireflies were flying, and the light shone on the faces of the brother and sister. The two of them lay there, as if they were looking at the stars in the night sky. It was so beautiful.
The next day, my sister was digging soil on the ground.
The elder brother stepped forward in confusion and asked, "What are you doing?"
My sister said innocently: "I'm digging a grave! Mom, isn't she sleeping in the grave?"
The brother was immediately shocked. The sister put the things in the pit and said, "My aunt told me. She said that my mother is no longer here and she wants to sleep in the grave."
Hearing what his sister said, my brother burst into tears!
It turns out that my sister knows more than she thought and is stronger than she thought!
"Doudou, can we go visit mom's grave another day?" Although he didn't know where his mom was buried, this was the only thing he could do.
Doudou raised her head, her little face already soaked with tears. She asked ignorantly: "Brother, why did the fireflies die so quickly?"
My brother can't answer this question because he doesn't know.
He didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes every day. Although his brother would give it to his sister first when he came back from collecting food, the little sister who lacked nutrition was still getting thinner day by day.
My brother saw the pain in his eyes, but he didn't know what to do?
That day, my brother took my sister out to look for food. My sister found a half-rotten sweet potato at a family's house and shouted excitedly to her brother: "Brother, I found something delicious!"
The brother combed his sister's hair and played with her.
But as the days passed, my brother and sister became thinner and thinner.
My sister is sick!
Crying and saying weakly: "Brother, I feel so uncomfortable! I want my mother. Can I see my mother if I die?"
The elder brother burst into tears, hugged his thin sister and shook his head: "No, I will definitely cure Doudou! Be good, Doudou!"

He put all the edible things he found next to his sister.
"Good boy Doudou, brother is going to find some medicine for you. Doudou is hungry, just eat some! Brother will be back soon!"
He wanted to take his sister with him, but his weak body could not carry her for a long distance.
So I can only let my sister stay temporarily.
God was not kind, and it suddenly started pouring rain again.
The elder brother braved the rain, gritted his teeth, traveled through mountains and rivers, and arrived outside Jinling City.
A teenage beggar-like brother was not stopped.
He came to the city, found a pawn shop, and exchanged a bracelet left by his mother for some money.
But bad luck only picks out misfortune, and he was quickly targeted as a child holding the money.
He clutched the money tightly and begged bitterly, but he was beaten and kicked.
The money was robbed, and he cried helplessly and desperately, but this could not change everything.
He wiped his tears and endured the pain in his body, and came to the door of a pharmacy, but he had no money and could not buy medicine at all.
It was getting dark, so he could only wipe away his tears and walk back.
Because his sister is still waiting for him.
Enduring hunger, he once again trekked across mountains and rivers and returned to the small village.
But what he saw was his sister lying there dying.
The brother looked at his sister with a heart-wrenching feeling. He hated himself for being useless.
He gave himself two hard slaps.
"Brother!" my sister's weak voice sounded.
"Doudou! I'm sorry, it's my brother who is useless..."
"Brother, don't cry, don't cry, just eat some candy. Mom said, it won't hurt if you eat one candy!"
Looking at the candy box handed over by his sister, the brother gritted his teeth and tried not to let the tears fall, but he couldn't stop it.
"Brother, it doesn't hurt. Eat Doudou!"
He brewed the candy with water and gave it to his sister to drink.
"So sweet! So... delicious. Brother, drink it too!"
That night, he hugged his sister tightly, but her sister never opened her eyes again.
At dawn, he seemed to hear his sister's voice again, but the sister in his arms could no longer call out brother.
That sensible, heart-warming sister is gone!
Went to find my mother!
