Ji Yuanjie's family received compensation, which relieved most of the difficulties. Ji Yuanjie's father's second operation was also successful. He and his mother have been in the hospital waiting for the others to wake up. stay optimistic.
Ji's mother gritted her teeth and insisted on a person who had never been weak in front of her children for several months. After hearing this, she shed tears for the first time. Xiao Ji hugged her and helped him sit on the bench beside him. Mom leaned on her shoulder and cried happily.
After venting the pain in her heart, Ji's mother quickly recovered. She is a very neat person. After paying for the medical expenses, the money is left over. After setting aside money for her son's schooling, she found a small family. Sell the shop and rent it, the family moves there, eat and live here. Although the conditions are difficult, she can take care of her husband while doing a small business to earn money to support her family, and Xiaoji can also go to school.
Ji Yuanjie began to prepare for the re-reading, but the work of the vegetarian restaurant that Tang Jinyu introduced to him did not fall.
There are two shifts in the morning and the evening at Su Zhai. It will be over at 5:00 in the morning. Ji's mother loves him and won't let him go. She does the morning job by herself, and the small shop is busy at night. She also has to take care of her husband, so Xiao Ji will continue to do the evening part by herself, and the mother and son will work together. In addition, the vegetarian restaurant is not far from their small shop, so she will not be particularly tired. With such extra money for a part-time job, my family's conditions can be improved a little bit, and I don't know how much better than the previous two months.
Ji's mother knew what the children had done, and was very grateful to them. On the day the store opened, she specially asked Xiao Ji to invite these children over for a meal.
Although it was just a table of home-cooked food, everyone had a great time eating. The two pots of rice prepared by Ji's mother were all eaten up. She was also happy when she saw how much the children ate.
The bell in the small shop rang softly, and Ji's mother hurried in. In the small cubicle inside, she saw her husband and asked, "What's wrong? Where is the pain?"
Ji Yuanjie's father was lying on the hospital bed, his face lost a lot of weight, but he seemed to be in good spirits. He pointed to the outside and smiled and said, "Bring some drinks to the children to make them happy."
Ji's mother also smiled and said to him: "I took it, I put a box next to the table on purpose, but when Xiao Ji's classmates came over and saw it, they thought it was a bad box, and they carried it for me directly. They wouldn't drink it when I opened it up. You don't know, Xingxing and a few girls squeezed their own juice, saying that they had a lot of watermelons and they couldn't finish them all..." She poured her husband a glass of warm water and put it on the The small table beside the bed sighed, "They are all good kids."
Ji Yuanjie's father also nodded. He looked outside, the bead curtain blocked some of his sight, and barely saw his son who was walking back and forth at the dining table to help his friends serve meals. There was also a smile on his lips, and his eyes were no longer dark. , but with a ray of hope.
Ji's mother fed him water and said with a smile, "you can rest assured and get better."
Ji Yuanjie's father drank the water, and this was what he thought in his mind, he thought, it would be all right.
After the meal, everyone helped hand out flyers to the store. Han Yixing helped to print them. The number was not very large. A few people quickly finished sending them out. I didn't want to leave after handing out the flyers.
A car stopped on the side of the road and honked the horn.
She glanced at it, then ran and shouted, "Xiaoyu, your brother is here to pick you up!"
Tang Jinyu was helping Xiao Ji clean up, and when he heard he looked up, Ji Yuanjie also saw it, and urged him with a smile: "Go quickly, don't let Brother Xia Ye wait, be careful to come in and arrest someone later."
This has happened before. Ji Yuanjie and Tang Jinyu have been classmates since kindergarten. It is not uncommon to see such a scene.
When the kindergarten was queuing up after school and waiting for the parents to pick it up, Tang Jinyu's family was always in the first place, sometimes it was Tang Hongjun, sometimes it was Xia Ye, and even Teacher Xia grabbed the first place. When they graduated from kindergarten, their family was the most homogeneous. Tang Jinyu was in the wrong team and almost walked to someone else's seat, but Xia Ye didn't hesitate to stand up and carry the child back to his house.
Xia Ye was tall, and when he carried the child's back collar across the crowd and returned to his seat, the whole audience laughed.
In elementary school, it was better. Usually it was outside the school gate. On weekends, the teacher assigned a lot of homework and needed to bring back a lot of books. Tang Jinyu's family would go to the classroom gate to pick him up and help the child carry the schoolbag along the way.
Ji Yuanjie has seen it countless times. Every weekend, he can see Tang Jinyu's brother standing outside the classroom, wearing a mask. He just nodded lightly when he saw them, raised his hand to take Tang Jinyu's schoolbag, and his movements were very natural.
However, this time Xia Ye was not picking up a single person. He also picked up Han Yixing along the way. The two of them lived in the same community. When they came, Han Yichen repeatedly told him to bring his sister back home safely.
The little girl left a little reluctantly, but she still waved goodbye to everyone and went to Xia Ye's car.
The black car stopped on the side of the road and didn't rush to go. After a while, Tang Jinyu got down from the back row and went to the co-pilot, and the car drove away.
Guo Xiaohu kept watching from the door, wiping with a rag in his hand, Xiao Ji called him twice before he could react, and said stunned: "What's wrong?"
Ji Yuanjie pointed to his hand and said, "This is a rag for cleaning the table."
Guo Xiaohu glanced down, then realized that he didn't know when he took the rag to wipe the door frame, and quickly put it away, a little embarrassed: "I was thinking about something, but I didn't pay attention."
Xiaoji said: "It's okay, you don't need to wipe the door frame, everyone is gone, you should go back early, don't let the family worry."
Guo Xiaohu looked up and looked around, and sure enough, they were all scattered. A classmate called him to go together, Guo Xiaohu shook his head and said, "You guys go first, I'll be back in a while."
His home is near here, and he is not in a hurry to go back. He sits there and chats with Xiao Ji for a while.
There are lights outside the store. Xiao Ji set up a small table from the house and sat there chatting with Guo Xiaohu. At the beginning, he was still talking about his studies, and he didn't know who started talking about his childhood. Both fell silent.
Guo Xiaohu had a glass of iced watermelon juice in front of him. The girls brought a lot today. He took a sip, but felt sour in his mouth. Later, he felt that it was not his mouth, but his heart sour and not the taste. He sighed and said, "Xiao Ji, do you like to be extraordinary?"
Ji Yuanjie didn't say a word, his eyes fell on the glass of watermelon juice in Guo Xiaohu's hand, avoiding his gaze and asking, "How about you?"
Guo Xiaohu said: "I don't know if I like it or not. In the past, I paid special attention to him. Since I was a child, I just thought he was very good-looking. Later, he helped me a lot, whether it was studying or other things, as long as I saw him When he was there, I felt very at ease, and I felt that I could do everything well." He turned the cup, "Probably last year, I think I not only pay attention, I pay special attention to him."
"It's the kind that I can't help caring about."
"I saw him standing there, his hair ruffled by the wind. I wanted to reach out for him and get closer to him."
"When he smiles, I'm very happy. When he doesn't smile, I just want to make him happy. When I see him, I miss him. When I don't see him, I want to… "
Ji Yuanjie said softly, "You must have seen her today, so you are so happy, right?"
"Yeah." The corners of Guo Xiaohu's mouth moved, wanting to laugh, but there was a bit of sadness in his eyes, "but I can't tell him."
"why?"
"He's doing well, and I don't want to disturb him."
Guo Xiaohu drank all the watermelon juice in the cup, frowned and loosened, and finally sighed.
He felt a little greedy.
His love was doomed to end in no end, and he couldn't and didn't want to break the current intimacy.
Ji Yuanjie glanced at him, struggled and said, "Don't you want to try? What if the other party likes you too? It's a pity that you don't fight for such a good person."
"Anyway, I've also transferred schools, and I can't see it from such a distance... Hey, forget about me, how about you?" Guo Xiaohu shrugged, "You should have someone you like, right? When are you going to confess?"
Ji Yuanjie was silent for a while, and said, "I'm the same as you."
"What?"
"I am so happy to see her every day."
The little brothers sighed and sighed, with an unspeakable name in their hearts. Guo Xiaohu took Xiaoji as a tree hole and didn't dare to mention the boy he liked, but just confided in the boy's thoughts. Xiaoji thought too much, and endured bitterness to recommend him the best little girl in the world.
Guo Xiaohu said that he used to admire that person, and Xiao Ji felt the same way from admiration to liking. He also liked stars since he was a child, and was moved by her enthusiasm and justice. They were not talking about the same person, but in their hearts, that was the best , the most beautiful person.
Guo Xiaohu finally understood the taste a little bit, looked at him and asked suspiciously, "Why do you keep mentioning the stars to me?"
Xiao Ji lowered her head and said, "Don't you think she is very good?"
Xiao Ji's thoughts are already a little open secret among the boys. It is estimated that apart from Xiao Ji and Han Yixing themselves, everyone else has silently tied them into a pair. Guo Xiaohu felt even more in his heart. This is the object of his brother. When Xiaoji asked him, he nodded and said, "It's good."
Xiaoji said with difficulty: "Then you can be bolder. She is really a very good girl. It doesn't matter if she changes schools. You can write to her, but don't write too much, it will affect her study..."
Guo Xiaohu's eyes widened, and he immediately waved his hand: "Why am I writing to her, I don't like her!"
Xiao Ji looked up and looked at him blankly, "Don't you like stars?"
Guo Xiaohu shook his head into a rattle and refused, "I don't like it, I don't like it at all, keep it for yourself."
This time, the small season became a big red face, and he murmured for a while, but didn't say anything.
Guo Xiaohu was delighted and said to him with emotion: "I don't like stars, I'm just like you."
"what?"
"I'm looking at a person, but he can't see me." Guo Xiaohu scratched his chin. It was the first time he said something so subtle, but he insisted on this point, and didn't want to cause any trouble to the person he liked. "Speaking of which, I'm worse than you. I don't think I dare to confess in my life, but that's okay. He's doing well, so I'm happy."
Xiao Ji looked at him for a while, as if trying to digest what he said for a while, looked at his eyes for a moment and then whispered: "But you used to be very gentleman, and let the stars from kindergarten..."
Guo Xiaohu waved his hand and said, "That's not true, I really can't beat her."
Summer nights are destined to be long. On the other side, Tang Jinyu is following Xia Ye for a walk.
He ate dinner at Ji Yuanjie's house. There were many people in Xiaoji's side, and the classmates were chatting lively. He followed Happy and ate an extra half bowl of rice, which was a little supportive.
The two brothers whispered as they walked, and they didn't go anywhere else, just strolled in the community.
This is where Tang Jinyu grew up, and it hasn't changed for several years. After he came back, he was very familiar with every plant and tree. He can easily point out which tree is the easiest to catch cicadas, or where a small clump of fruiting nightshade pops up after a summer rain, the purple rice-sized berries are slightly sour and sweet, which he stole when he was a kid. He was grabbed by his brother and pulled out the two purple-black berries on the spot, and forced to rinse his mouth for a while.
Nightshade's small fruit is a little poisonous, and it's fine to eat a few less, but he is not in good health and can't touch it. Since then, his brother has been stricter with him, and he even goes on walks with him.
It was dark outside and there was no one in the community. After walking to the path, Xia Ye suddenly crouched down in front of him and said, "Come up, I'll carry you."
After Tang Jinyu climbed up, she hugged his neck and whispered, "Brother, I have grown up."
"Well, it's grown up a bit."
Xia Ye supported him upside down, stood up steadily, and continued to walk on his back.
The matter of Ji's family is resolved, and Xia Ye also wants to resolve the problem between them.
His children have always been close to him. If it wasn't for the high school entrance examination this time, he might have talked to the children long ago. As early as a few months ago, he had some vague awareness, and once he had suspicions in his heart, he began to feel that there were flaws everywhere.
From pocket money to the piggy bank at home, he was all too familiar with everything, especially the piggy bank, which Tang Jinyu had been using since he was a child. It was a big pink piggy bank. They used to reward children with candies and toys. Later, there were too many of these, so they changed pocket money. It was Tang Hongjun who started it first. The children were very obedient today, or did something worthy of praise. It's a good thing, everyone just throws a coin into the piggy bank to reward the child.
After so many years, when the coins are full, they are exchanged for paper money.
After Tang Jinyu came back from the summer vacation, Xia Ye threw a coin into it unconsciously, and there was a crisp sound of "ding dong", which was too obvious - his children were so heart-warming that they were all hollowed out, and the echo could be heard when the coin fell.
The thousands of dollars in that little pig's stomach can be said to be accumulated every day for one dollar and one dollar. Xia Ye opened it and looked at it, and it turned out to be empty. There were no banknotes and coins.
Xia Ye started the embankment, he felt that something should have happened, and his brother had something to hide from him.
So he started waiting, waiting for his brother to call.
After he waited for the unreceived call, no matter what reason the child thought, he couldn't stand it, so he just followed and went back to the small town.
Xia Ye walked behind him and asked, "Why don't you tell me when you encounter difficulties?"
Tang Jinyu hugged him and whispered, "Well, I just want to try it myself... I can't call you if anything happens."
Xia Ye frowned: "Why not?"
The person behind stammered and said after a while: "Because, because you are looking for a marriage partner in the future, when you have a partner, you will be responsible for another family when you get married, brother, you will have your own My child, I'm not your child, how can you keep me alone all your life?"
The child on his back was still a little aggrieved, and his tone dropped.
Xia Ye laughed and said to him, "I don't have this plan for the time being."
"Then you will definitely have such plans in the future."
"What did you hear again?"
Tang Jinyu hesitated for a while, and whispered a few words in his brother's ear. Xia Ye heard "um" at first, and quickly changed his tone, "Huh? Song Yi?"
Tang Jinyu nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Song has already found a partner. Like Brother Song, you will definitely have such a day in the future..."
Xia Ye focused his attention on the fact that Song Yi had a partner, and asked him, "Did Song Yi really talk about it?"
"Yes, brother, don't you know? The person Song brother talks about is quite beautiful. I haven't seen it before. Last time someone saw a beautiful woman with long hair. You all on the 17th floor know it."
Xia Ye didn't know at all, "How do you know so much about our company? Where did you get it? Your gossip speed is so sensitive."
The whole floor of the 17th floor was Xia Ye and Song Yi, and the other was the secretary room. There were not many people who could go up. Tang Jinyu took Xia Ye's backup card, and the whole company was unobstructed. Even the president's office was where he did his homework. , it's all too familiar.
This "everyone" known to the whole floor obviously does not contain Natsuno.
After Xia Ye expressed his surprise at Song Yi's love affair, he didn't pay too much attention. Song Yi was in his thirties, and he was about to get married. After a few simple questions, he turned his attention to his younger brother, "Are you mad at me just because you guessed so much?"
"I didn't make trouble." Tang Jinyu pinched his shoulders with her fingers and whispered, "I just don't think I can be too self-willed, brother, I've grown up and can't be like a child anymore."
Xia Ye walked behind his back and said to him, "You can continue to be a child." He thought for a while, then softened his tone to discuss with him, "You can be unreasonable with me, and if you are wronged, come with me. Say, push me when you are in trouble, rush to the front without anything, and retreat behind me when you are afraid... Xiaoyu, you don't have to grow up."
The boy on his back hugged his arm tightly, and said nothing after a while, "I don't know what else to do, brother, I don't think I can catch up with you..."
"You can flirt with me."
"Um?"
Xia Ye said: "Tell me, I will help you solve it."
Tang Jinyu said dully: "I don't want to be a child."
Xia Ye laughed and discussed with him: "You can be a mature and stable child."
Tang Jinyu rubbed lightly on his back and smiled.
Xia Ye kept his back and didn't let go. His brother wanted to come down, but he didn't let it go. He didn't know what he was stubborn, but he was reluctant to let go at all, as if letting go, the child would really grow up.
His younger brother is as dedicated as he is, conscientious and diligent. When he goes to the hospital for treatment, he always smiles to make them happy. He never complains of bitterness. The things he uses are very simple. Although the conditions at home are good, there is nothing squeamish look. The only squeamishness may be cultivated by their parents. Compared with them, children can really endure more hardships. They can go to work in the vegetarian restaurant, or move furniture and clean up, and can do their jobs well.
It was he who felt that children could not endure hardship.
It's also because he wants to keep the child by his side, and wants to take over all his troubles.
The boy on his back hugged him from behind, and said a little embarrassedly: "Brother, I have only followed you..."
"Um?"
"Just, will it bother you if it's too close to you? What should I do in the future? I've been thinking about this for a while now. You are so good to me. If you are good to others in the future, I feel bored when I think about it. It's a little uncomfortable." Tang Jinyu lay on his shoulders, her cheeks pressed against each other, and looked up at the night sky. He didn't know what to do, Xingxing also liked her brother, but she must not like her as much.
"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains, Wind and Moon"
"I don't know, I only have you."
Xia Ye carried him home, walking very slowly. He didn't know who else would be in the future, but no one would be more important than the child on his back now.
This child occupied his entire youth, youth, how many decades can his life last? The child accompanied him to this day, and he grew up with the child on his back, holding it in his arms, holding it in his hands, and the positions on his knees and back are all his own.
"I bought the skateboard, but it's a little dangerous. Let me know when you're playing. I have to watch." Xia Ye said, "Baby, I've filled the piggy bank at home for you."
"Um?"
"You can take it anytime in the future, it will never be empty."
The child behind him laughed, and he didn't know what he was doing. After a while, he reached out from behind and gave him a fist, "Brother, look."
Xia Ye looked down, the boy's hand slowly opened, and he drew a small star on the palm of his hand with a luminous pen.
The person on his back lifted the last barrier, hugged him affectionately, as affectionately as they used to every day: "Brother, I've 'caught' a little star for you, does it look good?"
Xia Ye smiled, "It's beautiful."
He owns a star, which he held in his arms when he was a child, and carried on his back when he was older.
