Transmigrated to Twenty Years Ago and Adopted Myself

Chapter 15

Views:

Peng Xingwang didn't notice that his brother was gone, nor did he notice that his brother had a faint smell of disinfectant when he came home.

He is currently suffering from ongoing heartbreak.

The main reason for heartbreak is that one day he went to Yang Kai's house to play game consoles together, and a group of people at his good friend's house were playing mahjong.

The three aunts and the six wives are always talkative, and when they see an extra child, they will ask whose family it belongs to.

As soon as he heard that Boss Jiang recognized his godbrother, he immediately started talking about everything.

On the surface, the child was concentrating on playing Snowman Brothers with Fa Xiao, and never took his eyes off the TV. In fact, his ears were always standing up.

Parents and mother-in-law lamented all the way since Boss Jiang was young and promising, and finally turned the topic back to Peng Xingwang.

"Xingwang, hey, Xingwang!" An older aunt was playing mahjong in her hand and called him with a smile, "Have you ever thought that your brother will not want you after he gets married?"

Peng Xingwang let out a sound to show that he heard it, and continued to play the game with his back stiffened, pretending not to care at all.

Yang Kai was a little angry, he didn't care about his little white bear being eaten by monsters, but he also retorted: "That's his family's business, and why don't you want him when you get married!"

"Of course," the neighbor next to him continued: "Yaoji. Let me tell you, your brother is handsome and rich. There must be many women who want to have children with him."

"When you get married and have a child, your brother won't be able to care about you. It's what it is."

Peng Xingwang had never faced such malice disguised as concern, so he fought back after holding back for a while: "No!"

"My brother doesn't have a girlfriend yet!" His voice became louder: "And my brother has always been very kind to me!"

"No matter how good it is, it's not as good as your own." The aunt who played mahjong laughed, enjoying the process of torturing the child: "Liubing, oops! Your brother will definitely get married, maybe we are already talking about it now, but Secretly hiding it from you!"

"It's fine if you have more than one sister-in-law," someone echoed at the side, "It hurts if you have more than one, doesn't it?"

"Fuck!"

The neatly arranged mahjong was knocked down with a bang, and it was washed away like broken porcelain.

When Peng Xingwang was at Yang Kai's house, he didn't take it to heart. After returning home, he inexplicably began to think about what those uncles and aunts said, and gradually began to break his heart.

Then my heart breaks when I look at everything, and my heart breaks when I eat anything.

Jiang Wang was not at home, so he cooked his favorite sauerkraut beef noodles as usual.

Take a big bite with a fork, and two or three petals of the heart will be broken.

If she really has a sister-in-law, she won't be able to make instant noodles at home in the future.

The summer vacation has just begun, and the cartoons on the children's channel are broadcast in rotation. Peng Xing's eyes are red when he sees The Legend of Nezha, and his heart is shattered to pieces.

Nezha is so good that he was kicked out of the house, it's over, I don't know anything, I can only pick up trash.

It just so happened that these days, Jiang Wang Hospital Book Factory was so busy running around that he was about to vomit blood, and he fell asleep when he got home.

The child secretly watched his expression while preparing for the final exam, worried that he would be abandoned.

Just finished the exam and even got a good loan score, I deliberately went around to the man and said that I had won the test, and I knew how to do all the questions.

Jiang Wang let out a groan against the dark circles under his eyes, turned over with sore limbs and continued to pass out.

It's over, even if you pass the exam, you can't make your eldest brother happy.

Aggrieved, the child went back to his room to read, and lived every day he stayed here as if it were his last.

Jiang Wang stared at the printing factory for three days in a row, so busy that he didn’t even have time to think about the matters related to his biological mother. On the fourth day, all the books left the factory ahead of schedule and were waiting to be bundled and loaded.

He was concerned about the child in his heart, and he was a little embarrassed when he thought that he would not be there on the day of the child's final exam.

So during work breaks, he deliberately drove Peng Xingwang out to eat pizza.

Small cities don’t even have Pizza Huts these days, only miscellaneous-brand pizzerias selling fast food like chicken wings and egg tarts.

The child ate pizza for the first time, and he was not as happy as Jiang Wang expected. He ate it piece by piece with his eyes lowered like he was doing homework, even eating all the corn kernels that fell on the plate.

Jiang Wang vaguely felt something was wrong.

"What's the matter, are you unhappy about something?"

Peng Xingwang shook his head.

"Are you not used to eating?" Jiang Wangxin thought it was wrong, he knew his own taste best, and when ordering pizza, he specifically told the waiter not to put green pepper rings: "How about ordering a few more?"

Peng Xingwang shook his head again, and said in a very rare docile tone: "It's delicious, thank you brother."

No, something must have happened.

Jiang Wang could feel that he couldn't ask anything, so he called Ji Linqiu after sending the child home.

"Brother Jiang," the other party was drowsy, with a little laziness at the end: "Catch up on sleep, what's the matter?"

Jiang Wang realized that he had disturbed others' rest, so he quickly said sorry twice, and then explained the ins and outs.

"I feel that he should be fine after a few days, but I still feel that something is wrong. Someone must not be bullying him." Jiang Wang didn't want to be nervous in front of Teacher Ji, but he would rather be cautious: "It's convenient for you to help me." Want to try it out?"

"Brother Jiang gave me a ride on the weekend. It's too late for me to thank you." Ji Linqiu laughed: "Don't worry, I'll take him to the playground in the afternoon, you are busy with your work."

So the gentle and considerate teacher Ji took the children to the playground in the park in the afternoon, took the small plane for ten yuan a trip twice, and the merry-go-round three times, and then took the Ferris wheel to eat ice cream together.

Peng Xingwang knew that this was the eldest brother asking Mr. Ji to take care of him, so he tried to be happier, but his smile was a bit forced.

When the Ferris wheel slowly rose, the child sat on the chair in a daze, letting the ice cream melt and drip on his fingers.

Ji Linqiu hugged him into his arms, hugged Peng Xingwang and looked out the window together.

"I'm afraid."

Peng Xingwang was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Ji Linqiu didn't ask any more questions, and took out a tissue to wipe his fingers clean.

The man moved very slowly, patiently and gently as he wiped his fingertips one by one, as if he wanted to give him the warmth of his palm through a tissue.

Peng Xingwang suddenly wanted to cry, but he held back and didn't lose face in front of Teacher Ji.

Then he lowered his head and said all the words he heard.

Ji Linqiu hugged him and continued to ride the Ferris wheel for the second lap, as if both of them could escape this noisy and annoying world for a while.

"So that's the case." Ji Linqiu said softly.

"Teacher, don't tell your elder brother about this, okay?" Peng Xingwang was very worried that he would hinder his elder brother's happy life, so he tried hard to beg him: "If there is really a sister-in-law, I will definitely run away early so that they don't affect their lives. At that time, my brother probably thought I was lost, and after a few days of searching, I stopped looking."

"Mr. Ji, I really believe in you, don't tell him."

Ji Linqiu stayed with Peng Xingwang until the child fell asleep after taking a bath at night, and Jiang Wang happened to go upstairs when he was about to leave.

The man had just sent the courier vehicle away, and the stubble had grown so much that he didn't bother to shave it.

As soon as he made eye contact with him, he also wanted to hug him inexplicably.

Probably because

Because there is also a child who likes the teacher in his heart.

"I've asked you clearly." Ji Linqiu stood with him beside the balcony of Tongzilou for a long time: "I still need you to deal with it. I can't participate in this matter."

Jiang Wang had been living on the cigarette for a whole day, but when he smelled the smoke, he felt sick to his stomach, and after hearing what Ji Linqiu said, he smoked one again in silence.

From the time the flame was lit to the ashes scattered, there was no sound.

"Why do people always want to hurt my child." The man murmured, "If I didn't pay attention, I didn't protect it. Blame me."

Ji Linqiu laughed a little self-deprecatingly.

"If you are a teacher," he said flatly, "you will be tense all the time."

"You have to worry about hurting him with the tip of the pen, or hurting him when he trips on the stairs. Even if you make a mistake in answering questions in class, if you criticize a little bit harshly, it may make this child never want to take this class again."

"What do children know? Parents will beat him, a car will accidentally hit him, and even eat two extra apples, and he will cry in pain in the middle of the night. It seems that the whole world is chaotic and dangerous all the time."

"That's what raising kids is all about."

Jiang Wang was stunned, put out the cigarette and looked at Ji Linqiu.

"Then why do you want to be a teacher?"

Ji Linqiu was also stunned, and thought for a while before answering.

"Probably as compensation."

"I'm being nice to other kids, just like I'm being nice to myself when I was a kid."

"When I protect other children, it's like protecting myself when I was a child." He propped his chin and let the summer wind blow the corner of his white shirt: "If I can go back to the past and take care of me when I was seven or eight years old, maybe I will always Be pampered all the time, it doesn't matter if you spoil a bad child."

Jiang Wang really wanted to say, you also had a terrible time when you were a child.

But he knew that this would cause the other party to think of more sad things, so he just nodded and didn't respond any more.

From this day on, Boss Jiang has a habit of playing mahjong.

Boss Jiang is very cold, he doesn't even dare to post to young and beautiful girls easily, and he doesn't dare to provoke retired uncles and aunts easily.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wang suddenly changed his temper. In the past, people would not bother to go to the teahouse to save face when they were invited generously. Now they would play cards and chat with friends in the city every day. In just four or five days, they visited seven or eight houses, and their popularity was word of mouth. Keep soaring.

He was jerk-lag in his poker skills, and sometimes he got confused and let his opponent win a lot of money.

It just seems to find out something, and it will beat a few people to win.

The father and mother who played cards with him originally wanted to get rid of it, but they almost exported it when they thought that they would be targeted even in their underpants.

But playing mahjong has always been about getting better and better. If you lose three times in a row and lose four times in a row, you will be laughed at by the neighbors, and you don't know where to put your old face.

Seven to eight hundred and two to three thousand, it's just a superficial amount of water for Boss Jiang, but for the old man and old lady, it means that the entire month's pension will be wiped out.

—How many catties of pork, crab and stick noodle porridge can I buy

After coming here a few times, the family couldn't bear to look down on it, and once they realized that it was offending someone.

It was difficult for the targeted families to communicate in private.

Boss Jiang is really fucking protecting his weaknesses.

Didn't he just say a few words casually, as for doing it to death

It's just that the superficial hospitality has to be maintained, and the neighbors can't tell this kind of loss to the outside world, it's too fucking embarrassing to say it.

To sum it up, several families gritted their teeth and bought some fruit snacks to visit the children.

Peng Xingwang was doing his summer homework in his study, and when he heard the knock on the door, he asked Jiang Wang who he was.

The man was slumped on the bench in the living room watching "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", and waved him to open the door: "I'm looking for you."

As soon as the door was opened, it was the faces of the old aunts and uncles, and Peng Xing's hair almost stood on end.

Neighbors rushed in to apologize, stuffed fruit and shrimp chips, and said good things.

They didn't dare to get angry when they saw that Jiang Wang didn't turn his head back, so they asked Peng Xingwang kindly if he had a lot of homework during the summer vacation, and if he wanted to go out to play during the vacation.

After waiting for a long time to go around in circles, I carefully mentioned the previous matter.

Peng Xingwang finally came to his senses, and listened to their explanation and apology with a strange expression.

"...So," the old man in the head wanted to touch his shoulder, but when he got out of the way, he just smiled sarcastically: "We didn't mean that, no matter whether your eldest brother is married or not, he will definitely be responsible for you, those messes Don't think about it, ha."

"It's our group of people who don't know what to say, talk nonsense, don't be as knowledgeable as us," the aunt next to him made a gesture to slap herself, but in fact there was no sound: "Xing Xing, you study hard, grow up and repay your elder brother, be obedient .”

Peng Xingwang asked without blinking.

"So you said these things just to provoke me, didn't you?"

"Uh...how could it be." Several adults looked at each other in blank dismay: "It doesn't mean that."

"Then what you said is true?"

"Not really not real!!"

"Then what's going on?" The child looked at them: "Auntie, Grandpa... You said those things on purpose before, because you really wanted to see me sad."

Just now, the people who were still thinking about how to deal with the fooling of this matter calmed down, as if they finally realized what they had done.

Then with an ugly face, he finally lowered his posture and admitted his mistake, and left in a hurry.

After the door was closed, Peng Xing looked at Jiang Wang who was still watching "My Fair Princess".

"I hate them." The child became annoyed: "You don't want to play mahjong with them anymore."

"No," the man didn't turn his head: "They don't have the face to open the door and let me in."

-2-

Five thousand books actually arrived in other provinces half a day early.

The teacher over there did not expect that this could be achieved, and even once suspected that the online store would swallow the deposit and quickly pretend to be dead. When the truck arrived at the school gate, it was in a hurry to settle the balance, and called the doorman to come over and help count the points. .

One is not bad and the other is not bad, and there are even dozens of sample books for offsetting damages.

So much so that the teacher in charge of purchasing called to thank me a little excitedly.

"Hello, hello, I really didn't expect that it was also sold out urgently, thank you for your hard work!!"

"I had already told other book factories about this two months in advance, but they changed their minds temporarily and sold the goods at a high price to save others. We, a group of students, wanted to add some summer homework and didn't have to do it! You are so annoying! Annoying!!"

Jiang Wangxin thought that maybe the child was eager to rest for two more days, but on the surface he agreed kindly: "Of course, our goal is 'not to miss a single homework'."

"Every child has suitable homework to write, and as much as they need, so that they can make good use of the summer vacation time, right."

The teacher responded again and again, so grateful that he was a little incoherent, and expressed his hope for a long-term cooperation. In the future, he will only order their family's tutoring books.

"Then of course I will give you the best price." Jiang Wang rubbed his neck bone and said, "If you have any books or materials that you can't buy here, just tell us, and we will definitely help you find a way."

"Okay, okay! Definitely!"

As soon as the phone was hung up, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking back at the child tidying up the bedroom.

He hasn't figured out what to do yet.

If Du Wenjuan really came back to see the child this month, his identity would inevitably be exposed, and he might be sent to the police station by a phone call.

Jiang Wang cared more about Peng Xingwang's future than eating in prison.

The biological mother is the most reluctant to let go of the child.

My father may be eager to get rid of this trouble for a while and start a new life.

But the mother is also pregnant in October, and there is a high possibility that she will take the child away and take her to another province to live a new life.

... have been married for more than a year, and they should have settled down after thinking about it.

Jiang Wang felt exactly the same entanglement as the previous child.

In his life, he never thought that he would adopt himself one day, let alone spend these days warmly and happily in such a way.

So much so that the instinctive reaction is not to let people go.

Even if it's still time to take the child away and fly high, and the money is enough and the car is available, it will be fine to change the place and get a new identity.

But no matter what, Xing Wang and Jiang Wang are still two people.

They have the same genetics, the same bone outline, and completely different memories and lives.

The child should be with his mother, he cannot make his own decisions and make choices for the stars.

Jiang Wang felt tormented at the thought of parting, and he was used to iron-blooded men not expressing his feelings easily, so he could only feel uncomfortable.

Peng Xingwang just got rid of the fear of being abandoned at any time, so he was extraordinarily energetic when tidying up the quilts and sheets, and even wiped all the desk lamps with a small rag.

After finishing the work, he ran to Jiang Wang's side with a rag in his hand. Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, he waved his hand and said, "Well, the final exam results are down."

"I am ninety-five in Chinese, ninety-eight in mathematics, and ninety in English. I am the second in the class."

The child was very honest, and he was afraid that Jiang would forget to praise him after speaking: "But there are three second in the class with the same total score."

Jiang Wang answered, and after a while he came out of his thoughts and said seriously: "It's very commendable."

"Let's go celebrate," he stood up and looked around: "How to celebrate... What do you want to eat? Or buy a new toy?"

Peng Xingwang's scalp tightened: "I just downloaded it yesterday! No need really!"

"And I didn't get the first place in the exam!! There is no need to celebrate!!"

"Of course." Jiang Wang went out with the keys in his hand. Seeing the nervous expression on the child's face, he knew that he didn't like spending too much money on toys.

"How about," the man said thoughtfully, "Let's go shopping and make dumplings."

"The time is also just right. It's three o'clock now. After shopping, it's half past three, and we can eat after six o'clock."

The child froze for a moment, and his smile brightened again.

"Great!!"

The kitchen of the rental house is actually very clean, but Jiang Wang has never opened a fire.

— Not really, not at all.

So much so that I have to buy steamers and pots and pans when I go out today.

Since he traveled here twenty years ago, he has been staying here for more than a month, and he eats out every now and then.

At the same time, Peng Xingwang has never had the experience of cooking with his family.

So much so that the classmates in the class complained that the family made him eat dinner and wash the dishes, which was considered a sweet show to his ears.

The child floats up as he walks.

I can also do the dishes at home!

I can also make dumplings with my brother! I'm going to show off when school starts! !

Jiang Wang was careful not to let the child fly out like a balloon, while trying to find some references in his blank brain.

What do you want to make dumplings

noodle? Meat? vegetable? Yeast, by the way, I still need to buy yeast... How to use yeast

No matter, buy these first, and then use the newly bought computer to find out how to do it when you get home.

He showed no timidity at all on the surface, and even brazenly assumed the tone of cooking for many years.

"What stuffing do you like to eat? Order whatever you want."

I even assembled mortars in the barracks, so I don't know how to make dumplings.

The child was also embarrassed to order too complicated fillings, and only said that he wanted to eat cabbage and pork fillings.

When Jiang Wang was buying meat, he sent the child to buy candied haws, and turned to ask the aunt who cut the meat quietly.

"Auntie, what should I buy to make dumplings?"

The aunt was very enthusiastic, and she talked loudly, and she was still repeating it when Peng Xingwang came back with two candied haws.

"Alright, alright, I'll remember," the elder brother hurriedly stopped talking for fear of being discovered by the children, "Thank you, I will often come to buy meat in the future."

"okay!"

Peng Xingwang was very happy to encounter such a little simple family activity. He deliberately tiptoed to feed his brother candied haws, and he took a bite too, his cheeks were so sore that he grinned.

Jiang Wang hugged Buddha's feet on the spot but was not successful, and forgot again when he walked to the grocery store.

Did you just say you want high-gluten or low-gluten flour? What does the middle muscle do

After buying a whole set of things, it was almost four o'clock when I got home.

Jiang Wang taught the child how to type the keyboard and search questions on Baidu, and went through the meeting process with him.

"Ah," Peng Xingwang reacted, "We didn't buy cabbage!"

"I'll go buy it! Brother, just knead the noodles!"

The noodles were made quite successfully, and the stuffing was chopped decently.

A large group and a small group gathered around the coffee table to cut the dough and roll out the dough with serious expressions, confirming each step three times before starting.

Then the first drawer was all oddly shaped.

Peng Xingwang wanted to ask my brother if you had never made dumplings before, but he was afraid of being cut off by him, so he swallowed the words back.

Jiang Wang frowned and said nothing, he was already thinking about going out to eat if the cage was not good enough, he got up and interrupted the progress of making dumplings.

"Cook a pot first and see."

... It is really impossible to give the remaining half of the pot of noodles and stuffing to the neighbors, so don't waste things.

The two of them did not wrap the dumplings firmly enough, so that before the dumplings were boiled, they dipped their hands in flour to tighten their mouths in turn, and then put them in and stirred them.

After the dumplings floated up, I poured water three or four times to make sure they were cooked through.

Then a brand new pot of cabbage soup with meatballs and minced meat appeared.

"That's all." The man admitted defeat quickly: "I can't win this kind of thing, go out to eat, eat a big portion."

Peng Xingwang was particularly sad to watch, watching the dumpling skins and meatballs in the pot floating up and down together, and the whole pot of soup was full of everything like vomit.

"No, this is the first time we've made dumplings together." The child suddenly said, "Let's find Teacher Ji to save us, Teacher Ji will definitely do it!"

Jiang Wang said with a straight face, "Is your brother shameless?"

The child looked at him piously: "Go, go."

Five minutes later, one big and one small knocked on the door holding stuffing and noodles.

"Teacher Ji

, can you make dumplings? "
