Reality is often harsher.
It is sometimes completely different from what you imagined.
For example, listening to the adults promised that they will buy you a magnetic stick toy that can play chess and connect when they come back from other places. The red plastic is full of colorful cartoon villains that can be scratched off, and the low-quality spinning top that can flash and play simple music.
Maybe it was because the family had no money at the time, maybe they couldn't find it,
But what's more likely is that they just don't care at all, thinking that it's enough for the children to have something to get rid of, and it's not worth spending so much money and energy.
If you want to understand this, from full of expectations to disappointment at the bottom of the valley, the feeling is really...
Oh, so you can only be your own Santa forever.
Ahem, it's getting far away, I accidentally exposed something...
In short, through this example, we can see that reality is often skinny, and it basically does not follow your expectations. Destiny always hits you with fatherly love from time to time, allowing you to quickly recognize reality.
At the beginning of October, I took off the bandages and finally left the hospital bed and spoke English four-level words proficiently. I got on the special car back to the hut. In the blue sky and sunny weather, I watched the high-rise buildings passing by through the car window. , with the nostalgia of having been away for a month,
Looking forward to the warm and touching reunion scene like in RPG, such as the light suddenly lit up, the petals adorned with fluttering flowers, and the welcome with a warm smile, Fangran was thinking about the sentence that Shui Linlang told him, "Remember What does it mean to tear down the balcony railing',
Seeing that no one came out to pick him up at the gate of the yard, he was stunned for a moment, and then he went to the second floor with his bag and opened the door to enter... .
He noticed that Meng Lang, who was wearing a vest and beach shorts, was biting a popsicle and sitting in front of the TV playing PS4.
Fangran: "..."
For a second just now, I was thinking 'the reason why no one picks me up may be the kind of surprise welcome party after entering the door', I am really an innocent and cute idiot...
And where did the PS4 come from? !
"Well, brother, Ni Hui is here."
Witnessing that there was no sense of welcome at all, Meng Lang, who was biting a popsicle and was ambiguous, greeted himself without even putting down the handle. The moment he packed a few schoolbags that Fang Xiaoran brought for him for a change of clothes, and dropped them from his hands,
Fangran felt the skinnyness of reality, and he chose their usual way of reunion to give up on this guy...
"Brother, you heartless bastard, die!"
"Wow... hiss... go, brother, you want... woo woo woo!"
"Give me back the emotion and anticipation I got in the car this afternoon!!!"
Looking at the guy who is blowing on the air conditioner and eating popsicles and enjoying his life at home while playing PS4, recalling the miserable days when he could only lie on the hospital bed for a week and couldn't even play with his mobile phone at the beginning, the distraught Fangran has not yet When Meng Lang opened his mouth, he grabbed the old popsicle and inserted it back into his mouth.
Then the two quickly wrestled together. On the TV screen, it was clearly modeled as a beautiful girl, but for some reason it was a character from a fighting game. Because no one operated it, they were counterattacked by the opponent who was about to lose. A set of combos was full!
And then at this moment...
"Brother Meng, aren't you playing a game? Why did you make such a big..."
Gou Yu, who came out of the kitchen with a freshly made ice cream cake, said softly and helplessly,
Seeing the terrible picture of Meng Lang wrestling on the floor, Fangran betting his mouth with a popsicle and making a 'woooooooooooooo' sound, the melted part still dripping from the corner of his mouth,
It's so undead that the beauty character that no one manipulated on TV failed and fell down when the light effect and clothes exploded at the same time.
Gou Yu: "..."
This kind of situation always feels like it happened somewhere (with a blank face)...
And do you two only greet each other in this way every time (with no fluctuation in your heart)
"Forehead... "
The moment they saw Gou Yu appear, the two people who were still wrestling froze. Looking at what they were doing now, Fangran silently pulled out the popsicle, and then tried to squeeze out a bright smile. He looked at Gou Yu.
"That small or... that sentence is right! There is only one... cough! It's often hidden under the surface of things!"
It's just that Gou Yu looked at him slightly speechless, and finally he couldn't laugh or cry helplessly, and said with a soft sigh:
"Captain, welcome back."
"Wuuu...Xiaohe, after such a long time no see, you really still love me, hug!"
The moment he heard that someone finally welcomed him back, Fangran, who had been away from home for nearly a month, was moved to tears. He opened his hands and threw himself at Gou Yu's thigh, and Gou Yu pushed his forehead helplessly. block.
Captain, you have only been away for more than a week, and your indecent symptoms have worsened again...
"Speaking of which, Captain, why did you come back suddenly today? If you tell us in advance, we can pick you up."
Gou Yu asked a little strangely as Fangran swung towards him like a windmill while holding both hands together with one hand, and after he finished asking, he saw Fangran's expression blank.
"Brother Su Qun said he would just send me back, but he told me that he told you."
"Huh? But I didn't receive the call?"
Gou Yu was also in a daze, he had no idea that Fangran would be back today, seeing that 'his little or' didn't seem to be clear at all, Fangran blinked his eyes blankly and thought for a while.
Then both of them looked at meng lang silently.
"Forehead... ."
Upholding the principle of frugal eating and not wasting food there, Meng Lang, who licked the popsicle soup from the corner of his mouth, saw the eyes of the two, turned his face to the other balcony in embarrassment and smiled:
"Speaking of which, it seems that I did receive a call from Brother Su Qun saying that my brother is coming back today...."
"Brother..."
Fangran suddenly stared at him with a calm face, and asked without any fluctuation in his voice:
"Tell me honestly, did you stay at home and play games all day while I was convalescing? Depending on your answer, I will decide whether to take orgasm punishment for you."
"Wait! Brother! Listen to my explanation. I didn't want you to be bored while recuperating, so I used our shaved ice money to buy this PS4 and planned to send it to you, but I dare not , so I had to... cough"
Halfway through speaking, Meng Lang coughed in embarrassment, and then patted his chest righteously to promise!
"But brother, you believe me, I bought it because I knew you like playing games. I definitely didn't want to play games by myself!"
"real?"
Listening to him mentioning that Fang Xiaoran seemed to be in such a situation, Fangran asked suspiciously, Meng Lang pulled him over and found another handle, stuffed it into his hand, and smiled with a thumbs up:
"Hey~ Of course it's true, come on, brother, just try it out and you'll know."
"But I'm not really interested in this kind of video game...."
...
Four hours later.
"Fuck! I don't accept it! One more game, brother! One more game! This time I will definitely win you!"
In the spacious living room of the magical boy, before the ultra-thin TV he bought during the last renovation, Meng Lang, who was caught beating the King of Fighters all afternoon, pursed his lips as he watched Fangran with his eyes glowing and never giving up until he won a game. The expression is relatively hard and silent.
Brother, you're not interested in what you said...
Sighing helplessly, he clicked Start again and entered the selection interface. Meng Lang looked at the bright sunshine outside and regretted the vicissitudes he used as an excuse just now.
And brother, your game talent is too good, do you dare to win a game and let my brother go to the bathroom!
