At this moment, Xiao Lin didn't even know what kind of expression he was looking at his brother in front of him. His mind was in a mess, and all kinds of conjectures were mixed together. He wanted to comfort himself by saying that a five-year-old child is considered a With memory, that memory is too far away, maybe even a little false, but at this moment, looking at his younger brother's puzzled eyes, Xiao Lin's hands beside him are trembling, and his voice is unprecedentedly dry and hoarse.
With a voice full of powerlessness, Xiao Lin spoke, his voice was as chaotic as his mood at the moment.
"Qingrong... Do you really remember, did your mother leave you behind? Or did you remember wrongly?"
Xiao Lin didn't know what kind of pleading was in his voice, maybe it was because he didn't want to leave such guesses on his mother, or maybe it was because he didn't want to accept such a possible cruel truth, but sometimes , the fact is so cruel that you cannot accept it.
Xiao Qingrong saw Xiao Lin's struggle. He liked this brother very much. He worked hard to protect himself, but sometimes, the one who could hurt someone was often the most important person around them.
In his memory, when he watched Wen Ruxu leave without hesitation towards the front, maybe he didn't know what it meant when he was young, but Xiao Qingrong, who had lived through so many worlds, could easily see Wen Ruxu The look in her eyes back then, and the abandonment of everything when she left.
In other words, in her eyes, it is estimated that what she wants to abandon is what she never wants to mention again.
"I remember correctly, she let go of my hand first, and told me to stand there and wait for her, and then she didn't come back again, brother, mother, does she hate me?"
Xiao Qingrong's words at this time made Xiao Lin pale. He couldn't believe that his mother might be the real culprit who abandoned his younger brother. Even, his younger brother's suffering for so many years might be due to his mother's abandonment. When he thought of this, Xiao Lin didn't know how to accept all this, and he couldn't refute his younger brother, because it was impossible for his younger brother to deceive him.
"Then what happened at that time, can you tell me?"
It is said that children's memories are inaccurate, and some adults are unwilling to believe children, thinking that children are easy to deceive, but Xiao Lin is very clear at this time, what his younger brother said is true, and what his mother said may be true. Abandoned his brother.
"At that time, my mother was wearing a purple dress, and her hair was curly and very long..."
Xiao Qingrong easily told what Wen Ruxu was wearing back then through those memories, while Xiao Lin listened quietly, just listening, tears fell down, perhaps, the truth of all this came from such a Unpredictable.
In Wen Ruxu's room, Father Xiao was trying to reason with Wen Ruxu.
"Ruxu, Qingrong is our child. He has the ability to never forget, and he is very smart. All the teachers who taught him said that he is a genius. Do you know that such a genius is our son, Do you know how lucky this is?"
Xiao's father tried in vain to impress his wife with his son's intelligence, but Wen Ruxu grabbed the quilt next to the bed tightly after hearing the word "photographic memory", and then looked up at her husband stubbornly.
"A Rui is also very smart, and every time he is in the top ten in the class, and he is obedient and well-behaved, husband, you promised me before that even if Yu'er came back, she would not treat A Rui badly, but now How many things have you bought for Yu’er in the past month or so, but when did you remember to buy something for Ah Rui? You don’t even want to participate in the sports meeting at Ah Rui’s school, are you still a father?”
Wen Ruxu retorted, thinking of her obedient and well-behaved son, she felt a lot more comfortable. Thinking of Xiao Qingrong's indifferent eyes, Wen Ruxu didn't want to get close to that child. Somewhat uncomfortable.
"Ruxu!!! I think you should understand one thing. No matter how good A Rui is, he is only our adopted son. It is enough for us to feed him, give him everything, but our biological son is Qingrong, Qingrong has lived outside for so many years and suffered so much, who loves him? Since he came back to now, you don’t even want to look at him. I didn’t go to Ah Rui’s sports meeting, but you have Have you ever been with Qingrong? Qingrong is such a good child, a piece of flesh that fell from your body, how could you be so cruel? How did you promise Ah Lin when you were in the car? "
At the beginning, the wife promised to treat the child well after the child came home, but now the cold violence for more than a month is to treat the child well? Father Xiao couldn't figure it out, no matter how much he liked his wife, he didn't want to take a step back when he met his son, he didn't want to watch his wife ruin everything in the family.
The eldest son has a good relationship with the younger son since he was a child, and he has been looking for the younger son for so many years. If the wife is not nice to the younger son, what will happen when he gets old
Wen Ruxu saw her husband getting angry with her, so she turned cold, stood up from the bed, and looked up at her husband.
"How did I promise? I promised to treat him well, but if you look at him, you don't know how to call him when you see me. How old is this? I don't know what kind of mess I learned outside. I don't treat people well. Polite, with a cold face all day long without a smile, like a live Hades, how do you tell me to talk to him when I see such a person? I am his mother, do I, as a mother, still want to please my child? "
Her voice couldn't help raising, but it made Father Xiao's eyes widen, and he looked at his wife in disbelief. He didn't expect his wife to think so in his heart.
Isn't Qingrong's face cold because life is so hard that he can't laugh? After suffering so much, how can you make this child laugh
At this moment, Xiao's father was really sad, he just felt that his wife was really making trouble out of no reason, maybe he shouldn't have allowed his wife to let Ah Rui come home, or else Qing Rong wouldn't be so sad when he came back now.
During the silence between the two, there was a knock on the door suddenly. Father Xiao felt uncomfortable, but he didn't want to express it in front of others. He opened the door directly and saw Xiao Lin with a cold face outside.
"A Lin? Didn't you go to accompany Qing Rong?"
Some wondered why his son came to him suddenly, Xiao's father tried his best to restrain his emotions at this time, not wanting to let his son see his distressed appearance.
Xiao Lin, on the other hand, had a cold face and no emotion in his voice.
"I'm here to find my mother."
Father Xiao gave way, and Xiao Lin walked in. Father Xiao closed the door, thinking that his son came to persuade his wife just like himself, so he didn't want others to hear it. Of course, the most important other people are his parents. Now Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao are living in Xiao's house, if they quarrel, they will definitely be heard.
Xiao Lin walked in and saw his mother standing there. For the first time, he felt that he didn't know his mother.
"A Lin?" Wen Ruxu was also a little strange, not sure what the eldest son was doing here, but it was almost here to persuade her, Wen Ruxu didn't want to hear what the father and son in front of him had to say.
"Mom, I asked you something when I came over, and you have to answer me seriously, okay?"
Even though he already had the answer in his heart, Xiao Lin still couldn't figure out why his mother would do that and throw away his brother? This is something that Xiao Lin can't figure out at all. If the younger brother didn't remember things when he was a child, who would know that the younger brother is an abandoned child
"What?" Wen Ruxu didn't take it seriously, and Xiao's father beside him was also surprised. What does the son want to ask his wife
It's just that the next moment, the expressions of the two of them completely changed because of Xiao Lin's words.
"Mom, my brother wasn't lost back then, right? You lost him, didn't you?"
These two questions made the expression on Wen Ruxu's face completely stiff, and then she looked at her eldest son in a daze, unable to believe what she heard, but her heartbeat was out of rhythm and her hands were trembling a little. I never thought that this matter would be discovered and reminded by the eldest son at such a time.
But Xiao's father was completely confused. He seemed to understand what his son said, but he didn't seem to understand it. Wife, how could the wife lose his son
My heart was in a mess. Father Xiao turned his head to look at his wife, and found that his wife's cheeks were pale and her head was covered with cold sweat. Then he looked at the corner of the clothes that his wife was holding involuntarily. This is how it looks when you do something wrong.
"You, what are you talking about, Lin...don't talk nonsense..."
Rebutting with a trembling voice, Wen Ruxu's heart was in a mess, she didn't know how this happened, why did her son know about it? And it has been so long since what happened back then, why would anyone still know
"Nonsense? Am I really talking nonsense? Mom, since my brother came back, you have been afraid of him and dare not approach him. I always thought you felt guilty because you lost your hands after he lost it, but you never thought about it. Maybe it's because you lost your brother, so you will be afraid after he comes back, and you don't want to get close to him, because you are afraid that people will know about your loss, right?"
Looking at his mother's reaction, Xiao Lin already knew the answer. This answer was something Xiao Lin couldn't bear. He couldn't even imagine why his mother would do such a frenzied thing.
And Xiao's father had already fully understood the situation, and at this moment he completely lost any reason, and the next second he rushed over and grabbed his wife's arm.
"Is what he said true? You lost Qing Rong? You didn't lose it, but you lost it yourself?"
