"Xiaoshu and Xiaoyu, you are back." The aunt agreed with a smile.
This young man named Zhiwei almost peed. How could this guy be so unreasonable? !
The daughter-in-law is considered filial and has been taking care of the old man for so many years. Although Aunt Lin looked to be in her forties and had many wrinkles on her face, Lu Shu could still tell from the outline of her face how prosperous she was when she was young.
Lu Shu was short of money because he was an orphan and was abandoned at the gate of the orphanage since he was a child.
However, the group of people wearing black windbreakers didn't seem to have any intention of getting into trouble with them, and they didn't look like the standard bad guys in TV dramas who would kill innocent people at every turn. They just left.
"Of course I'm more awesome than them." Lu Xiaoyu said matter-of-factly.
A low cough came from the room behind Aunt Lin, and an old man sighed: "It's great to be young."
Lu Shu said warily: "Who are you?"
Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu live in No. 4 Courtyard, Administrative Road, Luocheng. This is the legendary courtyard for family members of the Municipal Party Committee. However, it was decades ago. Now, No. 4 Courtyard is recognized as a slum. Nowadays, At this time, it was still a small one-story bungalow, dilapidated, without gas or heating. I don’t blame others for calling it a slum.
"Aunt Lin, good evening." Lu Shu greeted the aunt with a smile.
When something like this happened, Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu were no longer in the mood to continue watching the temple fair and went home.
When leaving, Lu Shu lowered his head and pondered, looking a little absent-minded.
"Xiaoyu, what would you do if there were a lot of people in this world who were more awesome than normal people?" Lu Shu asked. If there was really something wrong with that performer, then what would be the throbbing in his heart? Doesn't it mean that... I have problems too
However, just when Lu Shu was about to take Lu Xiaoyu home, Lu Xiaoyu suddenly squatted down and looked at the medicine pot on the small coal stove eagerly: "Aunt Lin, can I have some drink?"
He suddenly remembered the videos and people who had disappeared from the previous supernatural events... Could this performer have something to do with that kind of thing? Since when did the government have uniforms like black trench coats... They look pretty good.
At this time, a young man suddenly stopped Lu Shu and said with a kind smile: "Did you just come out from the backstage? Can you tell me what happened inside?"
As for the fire brigade the other party mentioned... forget it...
Lu Xiaoyu no longer looked back at the pot of Chinese medicine, but looked at Lu Shu eagerly: "Lu Shu, I want to eat instant noodles and braised beef!"
It's so embarrassing. At Lu Shu's age, it's the time when young people's self-esteem is growing. It's so embarrassing to have such a snack!
"Huh... forget it, I won't argue with you!" Zhiwei was a little helpless, so she might as well go and see for herself. There should be many witnesses inside, and those people should be easier to deal with than this boy.
"You can kill me if you call me brother!" Lu Shu was furious at that time.
"Well... Anyway, I'm very happy..." However, just as Zhiwei was about to continue explaining, he saw that the young man opposite him ignored him and left with the cute little girl, who was still jumping around beside him. Jumping...
"Are we related by blood?" Lu Xiaoyu looked disdainful.
"Hello, my name is Zhiwei, nice to meet you." The handsome young man introduced himself with a smile.
The house they rented was at the end of a row of bungalows. When they passed by a square, a neighbor's aunt was making Chinese medicine.
If the other party suddenly showed a certificate from a mysterious department at this time, maybe Lu Shu would really believe it.
At this time, Lu Shu felt a little relieved. Could it be that the other party was really from the government
Under normal circumstances, if an orphan grows up in an orphanage and has no one to adopt him until he is 16 years old, he has to enter society and become self-reliant. This is the case for Lu Shu.
He has been weak since he was a child. Which family would be willing to adopt a sick boy
Orphanages are not as responsible as the 'model orphanages' in movies. Who cares whether a child will live or die if he escapes
Aunt Lin smiled and agreed, "Yes, it's great to be young."
Over time, Lu Shu got used to it.
Lu Xiaoyu raised his head and glanced at him: "Lu Shu, what are you thinking about?"
Lu Shu wanted to send Lu Xiaoyu back to the orphanage. After all, she was in good condition and still young. There must be someone willing to adopt her, but Lu Xiaoyu would run out again every time.
Lu Xiaoyu sneaked out on his own, and the orphanage was accustomed to this. In this era, little orphans couldn't stand the life in the orphanage and ran away secretly. There were many cases of stealing and robbing things and becoming beggars, so now they even call the police. Too lazy to report.
Aunt Lin was happy: "This is medicine, Xiaoyu."
Lu Xiaoyu said to himself: "Lu Shu, you are so weak that you will definitely not be able to survive. You will be out of breath after playing basketball with your classmates for five minutes. But it doesn't matter. You can't, but I can. I will protect you from now on." You, just cook for me!"
Lu Shu and the others lived here in a rented house, a small bungalow of 80 square meters, which cost 500 yuan per month in this third-tier small city, not including water and electricity bills. The landlord has no intention of selling the house. He just wants to wait for good compensation conditions when the house is demolished.
Lu Shu knew that there was an old man in this family who had been suffering from diseases all year round. This neighbor's aunt was also the old man's daughter-in-law. The disease seemed to be hereditary. Before the old man left, his son was tortured by the disease first. .
Lu Xiaoyu thought for a moment: "Then I'll take a sip!"
After walking for a while, Lu Shu looked back at the young man's back and frowned. Lu Xiaoyu said calmly: "Lu Shu, something's not right with you today."
Many people dislike this place, but Lu Shu likes it very much, because every bungalow has a small yard in front of the house, which is about ten square meters. You can also grow some things like garlic and leeks. After all, buying them requires money. ah.
"How happy are you?" Lu Shu asked.
Such a woman is willing to remain a widow and take care of her husband's father. Such people are really rare in this society.
It has been said for a long time that it would be demolished, but it turned out that it has not been done for several years because the residents in the courtyard are quite difficult to deal with.
Lu Xiaoyu is a little abnormal, she is a bit precocious compared to other children of the same age. Of course, Lu Shu may not be very normal in fact, and he usually doesn't show it very well, but the conversation with Zhiwei today was just a microcosm.
So Chinese medicine doesn’t smell good, okay? !
"Haha." Lu Shu said with a dark face, "Inexplicable confidence."
While Lu Shu was weighing what was happening in front of him, he was always ready to pull Lu Xiaoyu away. As for whether he could run away... I can only say that he tried his best.
"Oh." Lu Xiaoyu continued to walk inside reluctantly, looking back three times every step, obviously still thinking about the pot of Chinese medicine.
After hearing this, Lu Shu pondered for a moment, and then smiled as if he had figured something out: "What you said is really simple, but it makes sense. Let's go home."
Lu Shu's face turned dark at that time: "Come on, why are you causing trouble? You drink other people's medicine!"
So did Lu Xiaoyu.
