Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily)

Old Mrs. Crawford stood up, took out her mobile phone, looked at it, and said, “Charlie, I'm going to meet a friend, she is waiting for me over there, please give me a ride.” Charlie, “Okay, old Mrs. Crawford!” Old Mrs. Crawford looked at Anthony, “I will pick up Lilly later, take care of her and do not let her run around! | will come at you if she fell.” Anthony nodded.

Lilly waved her hand, “Do not worry, granny, goodbye granny~" Lisa looked at her own hand, raised it and waved it, “Granny, see you.” Old Mrs. Crawford, “..." She was a little disappointed.

She silently turned and left.

Josh sat on the sofa, peeled an orange, and gave it to Lilly and Lisa at the same time.

At the same time, he said heartbrokenly, “You should not call her granny, only my younger sister calls her granny.” Lisa stared at the oranges on the table, and suddenly reached out to take them, without blinking her eyes.

Suddenly she took a big bite and swallowed the whole thing.

Josh was startled, and frantically picked the orange in her mouth, “Oh, you need to peel it, peel it! Did | not peel it for you...” Before he finished speaking, Lisa took out the half-eaten orange and handed it to him.

Josh stared blankly, his mother was... Peeling oranges for him? Good gracious, imported skin peeling method.

“No, no need..,” Josh said blankly.

Lisa stretched out her hand stubbornly, twitched the corners of her lips, and said a word, “Eat...!" Josh, ©..." With this interruption, he had completely forgotten what he was going to teach just now, and he was struggling between eating and not eating.

If he did not eat, his mother would stare at him. If he ate it, well, he really could not bring himself to chew it...

With an idea, Lilly pressed Lisa’s hand and stuffed the orange into her mouth again, coaxing like a baby, “Aunt Lisa, eat it yourself! We still had something to do, you could have it!” Lisa’s mouth was stuffed, she looked at Lilly, and then at the fruits on the table.

There are oranges, grapes, apples, cherries, and bananas.

She then ate it obediently.

After she babbled and ate the orange in her mouth, she picked up another banana.

Seeing that she wanted to eat directly, Anthony quickly took the banana from her hand, peeled it and handed it to her.

There was a flash of realization in Lisa's eyes.

The round ones should be peeled, and the long ones should also be peeled.

Seeing that Lisa ate the fruit quietly and did not “make trouble”, Lilly and Josh breathed a sigh of relief.

Lilly looked at the crying spirit, “Tell me, how did you die?” The crying spirit finally stopped, and said sobbingly, “l was a professional weeper when | was alive...” Oh, there was such a profession? Lilly and Josh suddenly became interested and listened attentively.

“Professional weeper? Does that mean if someone else dies, you would weep for them?” Lilly asked.

The crying spirit nodded, “Yes...” “Birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws. Most of the time, the children and grandchildren are working outside, or the old man was in his 90s or 100 years old when he dies. Sometimes the children and grandchildren could not cry even if they were sad. If they cannot cry, they will be called unfilial.” “What should we do at a time like this? We should then hire a professional weeper...” The crying spirit sniffled and said, “Il was the most professional weeper in ten miles and eight towns back then, so everyone liked to invite me...” Josh asked, “So you cried to death?” The crying spirit hesitated to speak.

“It all started when | was a kid...” “I loved to cry when | was a child. My mother took me to go shopping. | saw a toy and wanted to buy it. My mother refused to give it to me. | just sat on the ground and cried loudly.” “Sometimes my mother beat me up when she was annoyed, and | cried even harder...” “I could not get a drink of water, | could not get the one | wanted to pick up when | eat a meal, | could not win a quarrel with my brothers and sisters... | would cry.” The crying spirit’s parents thought that if it was normal for a kid to cry, she would get better when she grew up.

Who knew that she cried even more when she grew up.

She cried when she did not want to go to school.

She cried when she could not keep up with school.

She cried when she was criticized by the teacher, and she cried when she was praised by the teacher.

When writing a weekly diary, another classmate wrote a comment when the head teacher was correcting. Hers only had the word “read”, and she also cried.

“That was how | cried from elementary school to junior high school, from junior high school to high school, until | went to college...” Josh asked, “After going to college, you finally stopped crying?” The crying spirit shook her head, “I got a boyfriend in college, and | cried even harder.” Lilly, “..." Josh, ©..." Pablo, “......" Lisa was stuffing fruit into her mouth, and in the midst of her busy “work”, she glanced at the crying spirit.

Anthony sat behind his desk correcting the documents, and looked up from time to time to check whether Lisa had peeled the oranges she ate.

Anyway, he could not see or hear, so he could only guess what the crying spirit said based on some questions from Lilly and Josh.

The crying spirit continued, “I was very happy when | first got a boyfriend. The first quarrel was when we first dated for three days. He went to play basketball. | sent him a text message and he did not reply to me.” The crying spirit and foolish ghost belonged to the same era. At that time, smart mobile phones were not common, and the more common communication tool was just text messages.

“We quarreled after | came back, and | cried when we quarreled.” “My boyfriend said that a text message costed 12 cents. We could talk about it when we met. There was no need to send so many text messages. | think he was stingy and did not love me, so we broke up crying.” As for these trivial matters, they would quarrel at every turn and cry after the quarrel.

In the end, her boyfriend was annoyed and broke up with her.

“After the breakup, | cried for four years in college.” Lilly, Josh and Pablo, “...” A breakup, and she cried for four years? “How did you cry?” Josh asked curiously.
