The Xu family has always had an invisible rule. Pampered children can be big or small with their parents, and occasionally they can talk back and quarrel with their parents. Of course, they may be cleaned up afterwards. It must be "you", what to eat by yourself, be sure to ask "do you have a taste" before entering, and listen to what the old man says.
This may have been something that Xu Xilin had instilled in his mind when he first learned to use the toilet by himself.
He shouted such a sentence, but the grandmother didn't say anything, Xu Xilin himself was at a loss.
He closed his mouth in sadness, froze for a moment, and was the first to admit his mistake. He made a bowl of royal jelly for his grandmother intentionally and diligently. Then he softened his tone and said, "Have you had breakfast? There is a sinus in the kitchen. Looking for dim sum.”
Grandma Xu's face also looked better, and she asked him to bring it over.
Xu Xilin accompanies her to eat silently by the side, his eyes are very empty, and he feels that he has never been so irritable before, and has been a little out of control of his temper recently.
My grandmother was very particular about maintaining health and refused to eat too much sweets. After two bites, she instructed Xu Xilin to warm up a bowl of porridge for her. Then, seeing that he had nothing to do, she asked him to feed the birds.
"If this kind of thing was left in the past, it would only be eaten during the New Year." Grandma Xu remembered the old yellow calendar of which year, and said rhetorically, "Xiaohui has all gone to college, the eldest is alone, and has gone to another place. Go and deliver something to your uncle Zhu's house for me..."
When grandma said this, she paused and looked a little dazed: "... No, it's your mother's Uncle Cheng. You're going to be called grandpa, it's Xiaoxun's grandfather."
Xu Xilin forced a smile: "Then what?"
"Well, just count your mother's most unpromising amount. After she got home, she chased after me and kept talking, saying that Uncle Cheng's house had a refrigerator, so she gave her ice water to drink." Grandma Xu said, "It's enough to say After three days, I was envious of her, but how could my parents be too stingy? She was ignorant. At that time, I had to find a way to buy electrical appliances, and it cost several thousand yuan. Who has such a family? Lots of banknotes…”
Xu Xilin said insincerely: "Ah, it's so expensive."
What's there to say about thousands
Grandma added: "At that time, people who were cadres had less than 100 yuan a month, and 100 yuan would be worth 10,000 yuan now."
Xu Xilin did the math. According to this ratio, it was equivalent to hundreds of thousands of broken refrigerators.
He suddenly became sincere: "It's so expensive!"
After being sincere, Xu Xilin also reacted. Grandma was turning around and saying "things are impermanent", telling him that he has no "family business" and that "deposits" can't be counted as money. Maybe someday, the current astronomical figures are only Enough to buy a pancake - just like she advised Aunt Du to urge the younger generation in the family not to let them eat and wait to die while lying on the demolition money.
Xu Xilin sighed: "Grandma, I can support myself and you too. I'm about to go to college, can I still take you to the street to beg for food?"
Grandma Xu looked at his face that didn't know the world, and felt sad in her heart - Xu Jin was gone, and the man surnamed Zheng said he was going to return to China, and there was no news until now. Spectrum, it's best not to hold out hope right now. There is no elder in the family who can take care of it. Even if the child graduates from college, he can go to the future on his own. Is it possible
Is he the character who can endure hardship
She's an old woman who doesn't know anything, and that little face is probably enough to find a job in the fancier association for her baby grandson.
"Ah, I know," Grandma said in a worried and kind manner on the surface, "My little Lin Sheng Teng (promising) got it, but the house is too big and it's too hard to clean."
Xu Xilin: "..."
This is purely to coax him as a child.
"I remember that my mother just had some money at that time. She looked at the house for more than half a month and traveled all over the city before she chose this one," Xu Xilin said after being silent for a while, "she was so excited after signing the contract. I didn't sleep at night, so I was so busy that I annotated my book "Winter Vacation Life" from beginning to end, which made me unable to hand in my homework when I started school. At the beginning, my family didn't even have enough money for the down payment, because I happened to have a contract with the developer. Business contact, invited people to have a meal, and the down payment was discounted. After the house was bought, she was watching. Because she had no money for decoration, she worked overtime day and night for several months, and took on a lot of messy small projects. Finally got enough money to buy furniture - the loan was not paid off until the third year."
Grandma was silent.
"This is our house," Xu Xilin said. "My mother's hard work, your hard work, and Aunt Du's hard work are all in it. The house can be sold at any time for money. How can the house be sold casually?"
When he said this, his heart suddenly became sour, his tears almost fell, and he bowed his head and held it back. Xu Xilin found out that he was restless for no reason. His mood changed very fast for a while, and he almost jumped into a rage just now. He would say that he was uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but feel sad.
After the grandparents and grandchildren said this, they couldn't go on. Xu Xilin silently cleaned up grandma's dishes and watched her slowly move back to the room.
As soon as he went upstairs, Dou Xun stuck his head out to look at him. Xu Xilin lost the joking interest he had just now, glanced at him, sat down in front of the computer, and browsed the web page idle for a while, thinking about all kinds of things in a mess.
Dou Xun closed the door and squeezed the back of his neck with his hand.
Xu Xilin raised his head on the seat back and asked half-deadly, "What?"
Dou Xun wrapped his hands around the chair, rested on the table, and asked, "Do you want to move?"
"No." Xu Xilin's eyelids drooped, and he answered very affirmatively, without explaining much - he was born in July, and he was already eighteen years old. Although others regarded him as a child, the rights conferred by the law It has been unlocked, and the house cannot be sold without his consent to sign.
Xu Xilin paused, and then said to Dou Xun, "I may be a little angry these days, and my temper is not very good. When you are sick, don't take it to heart, just ignore me."
Dou Xun didn't feel that Xu Xilin's temper was not good - anyway, compared with himself, the entire species of Earthlings was relatively peaceful.
He thought about it for a while and said to Xu Xilin, "I sometimes get angry easily, but I've gotten better recently."
Then, Dou Xun recalled for a moment and said, "Sometimes I see people ganging up and it is very lively, but those lively people are very annoying... Well, I have always been very upset... Do you understand?"
Xu Xilin understood it at one point, that is to say, he was envious, envious and hateful towards others, but he didn't take the initiative to invite them, and he "didn't look down on" others, so he couldn't save face and "offered", so he could only look forward to it. On the one hand indignant.
Dou Xun felt that his words didn't make sense, and said in surprise, "What do you understand?"
Xu Xilin: "Your old man didn't even give me a notice at that time. He didn't tell me a word, and he started to wait for me to go to school with me. It turned out to be selling me a huge face. I'm sorry, I only know now."
Dou Xun: "..."
Xu Xilin laughed, and the anger in his heart dissipated a little. Dou Xun sometimes can't speak human words, but Xu Xilin found that he actually liked his tricks.
Moreover, Dou Xun miraculously used a self-monologue with a foreword that doesn't fit the description, clearly pointing out his predicament.
Xu Xilin knew that he was in a dilemma.
He has a lofty goal in his heart, to be in line with Ms. Xu Jin. He believes that he has no problems, and he will even surpass his mother in the future. In this regard, he is like other teenagers, full of unfounded self-confidence.
At the same time, he also knows that he can't even settle a home without wind and waves at the moment, and is always ready to give up his son in grievances.
He refused to admit that he was incompetent, and he lacked the courage and patience to not be incompetent. I had no choice but not to think about it, not to face it, and to temporarily suppress it. But if it is suppressed for a while, the contradiction still exists. "Sorrow" is the same as the cough of poverty and love. Even if it is deliberately put on hold, it will be exposed in other ways.
Xu Xilin stared at the ceiling for a while, but Dou Xun stared at him for a while.
This posture is full of delusions, Dou Xun's head is getting lower and lower, when the two are about to meet, Dou Xun remembers the unpleasant experience last time, hesitated for a while, and then left with a touch of water on Xu Xilin's lips, nervous. The ground retreated a little, and then he found that Xu Xilin's empty eyes refocused, and he was looking at himself with a half-smile.
Only then did Dou Xun boldly lean forward and gently lick Xu Xilin's lips.
His movements were a little stiff, and he was trembling slightly, as if he was on an unprecedented adventure, and his future was uncertain.
Xu Xilin didn't know how it had suddenly developed to this point, and the gloomy heart just now seemed to be suddenly put on an accelerator, jumping up and down in a mess. He tentatively put his hand on Dou Xun's waist, felt Dou Xun's tenseness, and subconsciously touched it gently.
Unexpectedly, Shun Maoshun went to the wrong place, and Dou Xun jolted for a while, feeling that a numb tendon stretched from behind his ears to his waist, and a chaotic neural network scrambled to short-circuit.
Dou Xun shrank back gently, and the man slammed into the desk, the metal lamp of the desk lamp swayed and made a soft sound, Xu Jin's photo frame bracket came loose, and it snapped upside down on the desk. superior.
Stop looking, stop asking.
Xu Xilin's heart suddenly moved, and he saw that Dou Xun's auricle was almost transparent, and his throat suddenly became dry. He moved his hand down a few inches, and was pressed down by Dou Xun's hair, but he didn't press it very firmly. It's lighter than a little preschool girl's hand, probably just to express "abiding by the code of moral conduct".
Xu Xilin broke free from him easily: "Shh—"
The air conditioner in the room was turned on to 24 degrees, and hot sweat dripped from Dou Xun's neck.
For the first time in his life, he had such close contact with others, there was a roar in his ears, and he leaned against the desk tightly, as if he wanted to squeeze himself into the table... As for the others, to be honest, he didn't feel anything, from Xu Xilin He started kissing him, and in the end he disarmed and surrendered in his hand with only a little lack of qi and blood. Dou Xun was basically in a state of amnesia.
Xu Xilin knew better than him, and was more nervous than him. In the past, he used to get rid of himself. This was the first time he had done this kind of thing to others. -Dou Xun just stared straight at him, whether it was pain or comfort, it was not clear at all.
The boy refused to admit that his skills were not good. Xu Xilin insisted on talking to himself, thinking that Dou Xun must have necrosis of sensory nerve endings.
After finally tossing, he was also sweating on his forehead. Xu Xilin quietly stuffed his worry back into his pocket, pretending to be very old-fashioned, wiped his hands with a tissue, and patted Dou Xun's flat bottom just after frying his eggs with the back of his hand. Pot-like face: "So fast."
Then he rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and fled to the bathroom to wash his hands.
Xu Xilin just washed his face with cold water and felt a little calmer when he saw Dou Xun peeking at him from the door in the mirror in front of him. Realizing that he had been discovered, Dou Xun stopped hiding and got in through the half-open glass door.
Before Xu Xilin wiped his face, he shook the water droplets on his hands and asked questions through the mirror with his eyes.
Dou Xun refused to make eye contact with him, and directly started, hugged Xu Xilin from behind, and stretched to his pants. Only then did Xu Xilin realize that he still wanted to "reciprocate with respect", and he never dared to accept the "kindness" of this slapstick, so Xu Xilin struggled again and again.
The two of them quarreled all the way from the bathroom to the house, and Xu Xilin didn't need to wipe his hands and face, they wiped them all over Dou Xun. In the end, Xu Xilin begged for mercy first: "Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, you are the most powerful, you have a king on your head, okay? I'm exhausted, brother, let me lie down for a while."
Dou Xun: "..."
What is the king on the head!
However, Xu Xilin had already rolled onto the bed with his back on his back. In order to prevent Dou Xun from acting as a demon again, he also wrapped himself with a thick quilt.
It was not yet nine o'clock in the morning, and he had already taken all his emotions, anger, sorrow and joy to the extreme. As soon as he lay down, exhaustion swept over him—not sleepiness, but exhaustion. Together, a pot of chowder is created.
Xu Xilin closed his eyes, there was a Dou Xun in his heart, and an empty home. He had just done something bad, so he had the real feeling of growing up from body to mind, like a full force, supporting himself The sense of responsibility of "taking care of family members".
"The family business is handed over to me. Just ambition is not enough. I have to have a direction and a plan in the future." He thought silently, "I can't let my grandma talk about selling the house again."
Dou Xun saw that he closed his eyes and didn't move for a long time, thinking he was asleep, so he climbed up.
The two people lying on the single bed were a little crowded, and the foot of the bed made a squeak. Dou Xun's movements stopped for a while. Seeing that Xu Xilin was not disturbed, he turned to one side and hugged the quilt together in his arms. At first, Dou Xun only raised one arm, but later he was not satisfied. He pulled up the whole person, buried his face on the quilt and rubbed hard, thinking, "This is mine."
But before he could rub enough, the phone rang abruptly. Before Xu Xilin could open his eyes, Dou Xun had already sat up. The phone was thrown into his arms with a stinky expression.
Xu Xilin didn't know why the person who was tired and crooked just now was unhappy again, so he picked up the phone and rubbed Dou Xun's ears to play, so that he would not feel ignored.
Then came the old voice from the phone: "The results are out! Have you checked? Go check it!"
Xu Xilin: "..."
He also inexplicably began to find the phone call annoying.
When the results of the college entrance examination are released every year, the key classes of No. 6 Middle School are talked about for a long time, such as "Whose children are in that class, they are admitted to xx university, I heard that they are only middle school students in their class", or " The average English score of their class is more than 130, and there is one who is over 130 in the broken school of such-and-so, and they even put it on the list.”
But this year, the entire class was almost 10,000 horses.
Lao Cheng and his first choice have nothing to do with each other. Although Yu still has been on the sidelines, he may have to adjust his major. Luo Bing is said to have hit Siberia with his comprehensive science. If it's not good, I'll have to find a place to read it again. Wu Tao went to a sports university and had no expectations for his future in sewing sandbags for the little girl's film.
At that time, in order to stay in the local area, Xu Xilin applied for a relatively safe school—that is, a school with lower grades than him. Now, it seems that this is a very wise decision. When he applied for volunteering, he regretted it. At that time, several good universities in other places seemed to be sure, but unfortunately he could not go to take care of the old grandmother. This will be known only after the results, and it is not a pity at all, he can't reach one of the few "guarantees".
And Cai Jing... Cai Jing is absent from the exam.
Originally, the results were to be celebrated, but everyone passed the test, and there was really nothing to celebrate. They called Dou Xun together to buy some fruit gift boxes to see Qilixiang. Qilixiang should also be disappointed, but she didn't show it. In front of the students who had graduated, she seemed much kinder. The head teacher who peeped at the back door like a terrorist every day turned into a very gentle aunt next door. Cooked and left them to have a meal.
Then Xu Xilin took the lead back to the school, borrowed a basketball from the teacher on duty at the nursing school, and returned to the basketball court to revisit the old place.
"Three-on-three" people are not enough, they have to play blindly, whoever is on the opposite side, grabs the ball against each other and shoots.
In the end, it was Dou Xun, who played the worst ball, with the highest score—Xu Xilin always protected him. In the end, Xu Xilin, who was outraged, was pushed under the basket by others to clean up.
While sharing drinks under the shade of a tree, Lao Cheng mentioned his plan for a kebab shop, saying that he was going to open an account in a bank, and he would find a way to earn money by working part-time when he went to college, and strive to earn the start-up capital after four years. When Wu Tao heard about this for the first time, he expressed his support, so he rushed to the bank with a stinky sweat and opened an empty account.
Yu still suggested: "In the future, when we start to make money ourselves, we will make money from this household - we can only earn it ourselves, and we can't ask for it from the family. In the future, when the 'grandfather' shop opens, everyone will be a shareholder, okay?"
It was unanimously approved, and they named the account "Homecoming Project."
After finishing this matter, Wu Tao suddenly asked: "What is the reason for Lao Cai, do any of you know?"
No one answered.
The truth of this matter will probably be buried forever - but after a year or two, I heard that Li Bozhi did not know what he had done and was arrested. Xu Xilin still listened to Dou Xun, who was particularly vengeful, but he forgot about it. He couldn't remember which onion Li Bozhi was anyway.
That's it for later.
