The night wind is like water, and on a summer night, in a quiet small village, there are bursts of coolness.
The two sat on a well-washed stone bench, and a jug of wine and two cups were placed on the stone table.
Xu Zhenzhen filled the two cups, raised the cups and said, "Thank you."
He Liqin picked up his wine glass and said in a dazed way, "When did these two words appear between you and me?"
Uh, Xu Zhenzhen is a little speechless, did I say something wrong
He Liqin looked at Xu Zhenzhen's helpless expression, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and said with a smile: "That's fine, it's better than you ignoring me."
Xu Zhenzhen put the wine glass to his lips, and took a sip, the aroma permeated the whole mouth, the taste was thick and sweet, it was really good wine!
He Liqin filled up the wine by himself, held up the glass to Xu Zhenzhen and said, "Really, we have never drank like this before, come on, have a drink."
After speaking, he raised his head again and drank a glass of wine.
"Hey, drink slowly, you will get drunk if you drink too fast." Xu Zhenzhen hastily stopped her.
"Really, do you remember what happened when we first met?" He Liqin had a look of reminiscence on his face.
meeting for the first time? Why don't you remember it!
That year, Xu Zhenzhen was ten years old, and her mother Tang Yunsu was still alive. Since Xu Zhenzhen was sensible, Tang Yunsu often took Xu Zhenzhen to the orphanage, visited those poor children, brought them food, and played games with them.
Xu Zhenzhen likes to go to the orphanage with her mother, because she is the only child at home, she is too lonely, and she likes to play with the children there.
That day, it was a crisp autumn weekend, yes, the weather was a bit like the current temperature, a bit cool, but not cold at all. Xu Zhenzhen, who went out with her mother, was very happy, and chatted all the way, but her mother just looked at her and smiled softly, her eyes full of doting.
The car soon arrived at the orphanage. Xu Zhenzhen rushed in with both hands full of gifts, causing her mother to yell worriedly from behind, telling her to run slowly and be careful not to fall.
Really afraid of something, Xu Zhenzhen staggered with her two chubby legs, and at the moment when she was about to fall, a little boy of the same height rushed over and supported her, thus avoiding close contact with the earth.
Seeing this, Tang Yunsu quickly ran a few steps, knelt down and stroked Xu Zhenzhen's head, and comforted him, "It's all right."
Xu Zhenzhen's gaze was attracted by the little boy in front of him. This is someone's child. He is so good-looking, with red lips and white teeth, especially those eyes that seem to be able to see into people's hearts.
"Really, thank you little brother." Tang Yunsu said.
"Thank you." Xu Zhenzhen said in a low voice, she was a little shy.
"You're welcome." The little boy's voice was polite but indifferent. When he saw Xu Zhenzhen's mother coming, he got up and wanted to leave.
"Wait a minute." Xu Zhenzhen grabbed the little boy's clothes and handed over a toy in his hand: "For you."
The little boy glanced at it and said, "Thank you, I don't want it."
After finishing speaking, he walked to the corner where he was just staying, propped his chin with his hands, and stared out of the window in a daze.
Throughout the whole day, Xu Zhenzhen did not play happily with other children, but surrounded the little boy, doing what he did and she did as well, talking to him all the time, although he couldn't get a few responses, but Excited.
Tang Yunsu has never seen Xu Zhenzhen stick to a child. She likes to play with everyone and is very good with all children.
"Mom, shall we take our little brother home?" On the way home, Xu Zhenzhen raised her red face and asked Tang Yunsu.
"He's a few months younger than you, he's your younger brother." Tang Yunsu replied with a smile.
"My brother is also good, I want to play with him."
"I don't think he pays much attention to you, why do you still want to play with him?" Tang Yunxiang asked.
"I don't know, I just want to play with him." Xu Zhenzhen answered after thinking about it, shaking his head.
Tang Yunsu looked at her precious daughter and sighed. She had already informed the dean about the little boy's situation in the afternoon. His name is He Liqin, and he was sent here just now, because his parents died unexpectedly, and no relatives were willing to adopt him.
No wonder he doesn't care about people so much, it's impossible for anyone to have such a big thing happen as if it never happened. It's very pitiful to say, since she is destined to be with her own daughter, it's better to take her into the family to raise her, so that she can really have a companion.
Tang Yunsu told Xu Zhenzhen's father Xu Hongru about this idea. Xu Hongru thought more than Tang Yunsu. There was only Xu Zhenzhen's only daughter in the family. Maybe his wife would give birth to a son for him in the future. The share, the property that I have worked so hard to fight for, I don't want to leave it in his hands.
But he really wanted to satisfy the wishes of his wife and daughter, so Xu Hongru thought of a way to get the best of both worlds, which was to discuss with the orphanage and give him the guardianship of the child, and let him raise him until he was eighteen years old. If he can take him home and raise him, he is not considered an adopted child, so everyone can feel at ease.
The orphanage also welcomes families like Xu Hongru to raise the orphans in the orphanage, which is better for the growth of the children and also reduces the burden on the orphanage. It didn't take long for He Liqin to be accepted into Xu's family, and quickly arranged for him to study in school. Because he was a few months younger than Xu Zhenzhen, he was already one grade lower than her, so Dad Xu also reported to him according to his original progress. named.
Xu Zhenzhen recalled this, and couldn't help sighing: "You were so beautiful at that time, especially those eyes, which can be described as breathtaking. A boy looks so enchanting."
When Xu Zhenzhen recalled it, He Liqin drank a few more cups, his eyes were a little blurred, and he said with a smile: "You are also pretty, like a porcelain doll."
"Oh? Then you're still ignoring me." Xu Zhenzhen tilted her head and said a little dissatisfied.
"That's superficial. In fact, I really liked you being around me at that time, like a follower." He Liqin laughed.
At that time, Xu Zhenzhen was white and tender, with delicate and delicate facial features, especially the eyes with curved eyebrows, which were very cute and full of aura when he smiled.
There is also Aunt Yun's gentleness, she can feel the mother's breath in her, he loves this family very much, but the trauma in his heart makes him unable to express it, so that when Aunt Yun passed away soon, he regretted it too much.
He still clearly remembers that Aunt Yun, who was lying on the sickbed, took him and Xu Zhenzhen's hands, with reluctant eyes, and repeatedly told him that he hoped that he could take good care of and protect Xu Zhenzhen. He choked back.
At the beginning, Uncle Xu was as distressed as Xu Zhenzhen. He didn't think about food and tea. He was such a young child, and he took care of the father and daughter with all his heart. Every time, he personally brought meals to them and persuaded them to eat more .
Finally, Uncle Xu stopped being decadent and chaotic all day long, because he brought back a younger and more beautiful woman and asked Xu Zhenzhen to call her mother. That woman was called Hu Lixiang, with a gentle and virtuous smile on her face, she hugged the timid Xu Zhenzhen into her arms and called out pity, Uncle Xu was satisfied, but for some reason, He Liqin could not feel any kindness from this woman, even It feels fake.
The innocent Xu Zhenzhen accepts Hu Lixiang, who is acting hard, but He Liqin is always cold-eyed, which makes Uncle Xu very annoyed, and wants to send him back to the orphanage several times, but Xu Zhenzhen desperately stops him. Finally, he was left at home.
On the surface, Hu Lixiang treated him as well as Xu Zhenzhen, but because he was still unmoved, she gave up on him, and turned to doting and protecting Xu Zhenzhen in various ways, and raised her to be a domineering young lady, waiting for her After his son was born, Uncle Xu hated his daughter even more.
And he has also become the most embarrassing existence in this family. If it wasn't for him having a genius brain, excellent and outstanding academic performance, earning enough face for Uncle Xu, and Uncle Xu's love for talents, maybe it would not be so easy for him to stay in this family.
Thinking of this, He Liqin couldn't help exhaling. Although he always wanted to protect her, but because of Hu Lixiang, Xu Zhenzhen's prejudice against him became deeper and deeper. In the end, he couldn't say that Hu Lixiang was not good at all, so he had to shut up , instead guarding her silently, no matter what she becomes, she will always be the lovely appearance in his memory.
"Come on, let's drink to your freshman!" He Liqin picked up the wine glass and wanted to drink with Xu Zhenzhen.
newborn? Sure enough, it was a freshman, Xu Zhenzhen had a self-deprecating smile, hoping that he could live a good life.
Xu Zhenzhen picked up the glass and touched his, drank the wine in one gulp, and suddenly felt that drinking like this was really refreshing.
"Now that you know the true face of that woman, do you want to go back to your father and expose her?" He Liqin put down his cup, feeling dizzy, and asked dizzily before falling down.
"Are you drunk? How do you expose it? She said she disabled me on purpose? Would my father believe it? He must beat me back." Xu Zhenzhen snorted and said, the self in front of him was too weak It's too late, and I have a bad impression in my father's mind, so I have to hurry up and practice first, and wait for the right opportunity to talk about it.
For a long time, He Liqin didn't respond, Xu Zhenzhen pushed him, and saw that he was already drunk and fell asleep. Xu Zhenzhen smiled wryly, he dared to drink so much even though he didn't hold a lot of alcohol, how could he carry such a heavy person into the house by himself.
As a last resort, she could only pat his cheek to wake him up, and helped him into the room with strength. He Liqin was dazed by Xu Zhenzhen's photo, muttering, Zhenzhen, I am happy that you have divorced!
Xu Zhenzhen was stunned, a little sad, he kept these words in his heart all the time, and only said them when he was drunk. Xu Zhenzhen sighed, helped him up, stumbled and dragged him back into the room, the stools in the living room were too late to put together, even if they were put together, a drunk would not be able to sleep, Xu Zhenzhen dragged him to the bedroom, and put him on the bed Throwing it away and helping him take off his shoes, Xu Zhenzhen clapped his hands, finally able to rest.
