"call!"
Ji Feng slowly retracted his hand, couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, shook his head slightly, and snorted, "It's really troublesome... I'm afraid that in the end, I will be thankless for my efforts!"
Ji Feng shook his head and walked out. He was startled when he found that the boy named Xiao Yuanhui was still standing outside the door. He immediately raised his hand and looked at his watch and found that nearly forty minutes had passed and this kid was still standing outside the door
"Xiao Yuanhui, why are you still standing here?" Ji Feng asked, and he smiled as soon as he finished speaking: "I'm sorry, this is your home, I'm really overestimating the guest by asking this!"
"Brother Feng, my father and sister-in-law told me just now that you are my cousin, and this is your home..." Xiao Yuanhui said immediately. He scratched his head and said shyly: "Cousin, I didn't just say I know it’s you, you’re so awesome!”
Although Ji Feng could be cold to the people of the old Xiao family, he really couldn't be cold to this young man. Every grievance has its owner, and every debt has its owner. He will not involve the previous generation's grievances on the children below.
He didn't realize that he actually placed himself in a high position and regarded his cousin as a child. In fact, this is a sign of maturity, and more importantly, it proves that Ji Feng has set his sights very high.
Ji Feng's face finally showed a smile for the first time since he stepped into Xiaojiazhuang. He nodded slightly and said, "You are also very good."
Xiao Yuanhui said shyly: "Cousin, my sister-in-law and my father are all in the west room. They said that when you come out, they will let you go to the east room to rest."
Ji Feng was noncommittal, shook his head and said: "Forget it, I'll go directly to the West Room, you can go and do your own thing!"
Xiao Yuanhui was not familiar with his cousin and did not dare to say anything. He could only follow his cousin towards the west room.
Ji Feng came to the door of the west room, knocked on the door, and then walked in.
"Xiao Feng, how are you?!" Xiao Sumei asked eagerly as soon as she saw Ji Feng come in.
Ji Feng thought about it for a while and then said: "The situation is not bad! However, because his condition is very different from grandpa's, because he has cancer, even if he is cured, his physical condition will not be very good. , but it won’t be too big of a problem, that’s the situation anyway!”
Uh-huh!
Xiao Sumei and Xiao Guoqing's eyes lit up at the same time. Although Ji Feng spoke with a very indifferent attitude, the content of his words made them extremely happy. They do not ask the old man to live a long life, as long as he can be safe and sound, they will be satisfied.
Ji Feng said: "Mom, that's it for today. Let's go back first and come back tomorrow!"
Xiao Sumei's expression suddenly changed, and both Xiao Guoqing and the old woman became nervous, especially the old woman. She hadn't seen her daughter for more than ten years, and now she had just met her for a while, and her daughter was actually leaving
"Su Mei, you, can't you live here?" The old woman couldn't help but ask, "Just live here today, and let Xiaofeng live here too, okay?"
Seeing the hope in her mother's eyes, Xiao Sumei wanted to agree. Ji Feng suddenly thought to himself, "Mom, the hotels in the city are still open. If we don't stay, we will still have to pay for the room." Paid!”
Xiao Sumei hesitated. It was neither a matter of leaving nor a matter of not leaving.
Ji Feng frowned slightly and said, "Mom, we agreed before!"
In his opinion, he would never live here. No one wanted to let him stay back then!
What's more, Ji Feng also knows that if he stays here tonight, his mother will definitely let him stay for dinner. As he eats, something might happen to him. For example, he always has to call someone when he meets his elders. Bar? Living in someone else's house is a kind of affection, right
When the time comes, will we really become a family after going back and forth
Don’t even think about it!
Ji Feng couldn't help but snorted in his heart. He wanted to gradually ease the relationship between himself and the old Xiao family through every bit of life. He could promise his mother everything else, but for this matter, no matter what, Neither will agree.
After curing the old man, he left on his own. It had no impact on the old Xiao family, nor did it have much impact on his mother. If nothing else, according to rural tradition, he was a member of the Ji family, and to the old Xiao family, he was He is a grandson. Since there is the word 'foreign', it proves that he is an outsider!
An outsider is neither too much nor too little, but he should not cause any trouble to the Xiao family!
Ji Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. His mother was now starting to play tenderness tactics with him...
For my mother, whatever happens is fine! No matter how accommodating or aggrieved he was, Ji Feng was always willing to do so. But for these people in the old Xiao family, Ji Feng will not accept even the slightest grievance, absolutely not!
"Xiao Feng..." Xiao Sumei was about to speak when she saw Ji Feng's expression became firm. Her heart thumped. It seemed that it was impossible for her son to stay for one night. She knew her son's character very well. Once my son's expression has stabilized, it's not that easy to change it, not to mention that the time and place are not suitable now!
"Mom, let's go!" Ji Feng's voice was not loud and seemed very calm, but it was somewhat irrefutable.
The old woman burst into tears immediately and held her daughter's hand without letting go: "Su Mei, look at this... do you really want to leave?"
Ji Feng suddenly became impatient. He took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and said in a deep voice: "It doesn't mean you won't come back if you leave. If you leave today, you will come back tomorrow!"
But the old woman was still crying and choked up: "Su Mei, your dad was too stubborn back then and I couldn't stop him. As a result, you have been gone for more than ten years. Now you can't leave anymore. Otherwise, Mom I’m really afraid that I’ll never see you again until I die.”
Ji Feng's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he became more and more impatient. Now that he was saying this, what were he doing earlier? !
But now he couldn't speak easily and could only look at his mother quietly.
Xiao Sumei thought for a while and then said: "Xiao Feng, let's go back later. As long as we can reach the city before dark at night, do you think this is okay?"
Seeing that his mother really didn't want to leave, Ji Feng could only nod his head helplessly and said: "Mom, in this case, we must go back before six o'clock, otherwise, it will be difficult to walk on this road when it gets dark. ”
"Okay! Okay!" Xiao Sumei nodded immediately and agreed. It was not easy to make her son compromise to this extent.
Ji Feng shook his head slightly, sighed softly, opened the door and walked out.
"Mom, Xiao Feng is a bit stubborn, don't take it to heart!" Seeing her son go out, Xiao Sumei couldn't help but hold her mother's hand and said.
"How can you blame Xiao Feng? It's all the fault of your old man, your father. If he hadn't been so obsessed with face and selfish, he wouldn't have caused the situation today!" The old woman couldn't help scolding.
Xiao Guoqing next to him could only smile bitterly, but he knew that this matter was not entirely his father's responsibility. The boss and the third child were also responsible. They were sarcastic at the beginning, but they were more active than anyone else!
"Su Mei, it's not Xiao Feng's fault. Even if it were me, I would be resentful..." Xiao Guoqing sighed softly, "Boss, what they did back then was indeed too much."
Xiao Sumei shook her head slightly and said: "Don't talk about the past things anymore. The main reason I came here this time is to see my mother and see what to do about my father's illness. As for other things, don't mention it!"
Xiao Guoqing couldn't help but smile bitterly. Obviously, Xiao Feng was not the only one with resentment. The younger sister Sumei also had resentment in her heart. It was just because her parents were older that she suppressed all the resentment in her heart. They didn't even say it out loud.
"Cousin!" As soon as Ji Feng went out, he saw Xiao Yuanhui standing at the door waiting for him, "Cousin, there is no point in being here, otherwise you can come with me to my house to play!"
Ji Feng raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is there to do at your house?"
"Yeah, it's nothing..." Xiao Yuanhui couldn't help but blush. In rural families, children mostly play with mud and slingshots, but in this winter, there is really nothing fun.
Ji Feng looked around and suddenly asked: "Does your house have a red painted wooden door?!"
"Huh?!" Xiao Yuanhui was a little surprised, "Cousin, have you been to our house?"
"Really?!" Ji Feng asked with a frown.
"Yes, there is a red wooden door, but the paint is almost gone now, and you can't tell what color it is at all..." Xiao Yuanhui said a little strangely, "Cousin, you can still tell that it is red. The wooden doors are amazing!”
Ji Feng hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Let's go to your house and have a look!"
Xiao Yuanhui was startled, then nodded slightly and said: "Then cousin, come with me!"
Ji Feng turned his head and said loudly: "Xiao Ying, protect my mother here. No matter who it is, anyone who wants to harm my mother will be killed without mercy!"
Xiao Yuanhui, who was walking in front, was so frightened that his legs softened and he almost fell to the ground.
Ji Feng didn't notice his gaffe, but thought of another thing.
If I remember correctly, there seemed to be some hazy fragments in Ji Feng's memory that occasionally flashed into his mind. It seems that when he was a child, he lived in a place with a redwood door for a period of time.
During that period, it seemed to be the only memory of him not being bullied. However, because he was so young at the time, it seemed that it was before he could remember, so this memory has always been hazy, and he didn't know. Where is the place in the memory
But now that he was here, he suddenly felt familiar. It seemed that the scene... was at Xiao Yuanhui's home!
If this is the case, this means that perhaps the only person who did not humiliate him was Xiao Yuanhui's father!
Based on today's situation, Ji Feng feels a little complicated about his guess!
