"Eat, eat, eat!"

Yuan Rong's voice pulled Yao Feng back from his memories.

And Midsummer has already helped set up the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen.

"Xiao Xia, why do you only take two bowls?"

Yuan Rong frowned and urged: "Go quickly, help your brother get a copy too." ”

"Does he have no hands himself?"

Midsummer is unwilling.

"How do you talk ...... girl?"

"Mother-in-law, what Midsummer said is right, I'll take it myself. ”

Seeing that Yuan Rong was displeased, Yao Feng hurriedly entered the kitchen.

Yuan Rong had no choice but to shake her head helplessly and say no more.

Her daughter's temper is very clear to her as a mother.

I'm afraid Midsummer won't forgive this easily... As soon as he left, he was the elder brother of eight years.

Even Yuan Rong was dissatisfied with this matter.

But when she saw Yao Feng again, in addition to missing and moving, other emotions in her heart had long since disappeared.

Yao Feng, after all, is his own child.

What mother would really complain about her child......

......

At the dinner table, three people eat.

There is no lively and warm as Yuan Rong imagined, but it is indifferent and quiet.

Except for the occasional clatter of dishes and chopsticks, there is only the emotionless subtle chewing.

Seeing that the righteous mother's face was slightly ugly, Yao Feng stopped his chopsticks and took the initiative to speak.

"Mother-in-law, I will live in Nanjiang Manor during this time, can you come and live with me?"

"Nanjiang Manor?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Rong's eyes, and then she immediately suddenly.

Presumably it was Lao Zhang of the Land Department who helped.

She also knew a little about the Land Department's prevention of the Long family's handling of the property rights of the estate.

Now that the manor can come back, she is happy in her heart, but she is reluctant to give up this old house.

"Xiaofeng, it's a good thing that the manor can be taken back, but I'm really not used to it. ”

Yuan Rong shook her head and smiled: "Besides, this old house is where I started with your father-in-law, and if I stay here, I can be regarded as keeping the small family he started with......

"That manor, let Xiao Xia go over......"

"I'm not going!"

Before the words fell, Sheng Xia immediately interrupted, frowned and said, "Mom, I'm not going anywhere, I'm with you!"

"You kid...... Hey, forget it. ”

Yuan Rong looked at the other party's firm eyes, and finally sighed and no longer forced.

She turned her head to Yao Feng and apologized: "Xiaofeng, let's live in the old house." ”

"Hmmm......"

Yao Feng nodded and didn't say anything more.

When he lowered his head, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyebrows and eyes.

This home......

There's no going back to the way it used to be.

"By the way, Xiaofeng, you haven't had time to find a job this time, have you?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was cold again, Yuan Rong took the initiative to ask: "I still know some friends, do you want me to ......?"

"No, no. ”

Yao Feng was slightly startled, and hurriedly said: "I haven't been discharged from the army yet, I'm just returning to ...... on vacation."

"It's okay, they're all old friends, I can help you ask. ”

Yuan Rong waved her hand to interrupt, but she didn't believe the other party's words in her heart.

The Imperial Army was extremely well managed, and the borders were not fixed.

If it weren't for being discharged, how could an average soldier have such a long vacation.

I'm afraid it's because Xiaofeng is in the way, and he doesn't want to trouble himself.

"Mother-in-law, you really don't need to help me find a job......"

Yao Feng smiled helplessly: "And I am not short of money now, and I have a place to live, you don't have to worry about me." ”

"Mom, he said so, what do you care about him?"

Midsummer suddenly opened his mouth and said indifferently: "This kind of person, what is there to help?"

"Even if he starves to death, he will do it himself......"

"Xiao Xia, how can you say that about your brother!"

Before she finished speaking, Yuan Rong raised her eyebrows and interrupted.

"It's okay, it's okay......"

Seeing Yuan Rong's face change, Yao Feng hurriedly diverted the topic: "Xiao Xia is actually right, you really don't need to help me." ”

Immediately, he immediately sandwiched some dishes to Yuan Rong: "Mother-in-law, eat first, and talk about anything after eating." ”

Seeing this, Yuan Rong had no choice but to take a deep breath, lowered her eyebrows, and no longer mentioned work.

And in midsummer, when he saw Yaofeng's appearance of picking vegetables, he snorted coldly and ate with his head bored.

Jingling......

Jingling......

The crisp sound of chopsticks touching the porcelain bowl......

Knocking on the eardrums of the three people present, it also touched their lost hearts.

In this way, the warm dinner that was originally expected became a quiet and indifferent dinner.

The three of them have different thoughts, but they care about each other.

There is less familiarity on the face, but more indifference.

There are fewer fetters in the heart, but more distance.

The original harmonious and warm home, without that backbone, is gradually indifferent and lively.

Yao Feng was silent, and his heart was lonely......

He looked at the home in front of him, and his eyebrows showed a hint of sadness......

Father-in-law, I still have a chance... Save this home?

......

After the meal.

The three of them got up.

In the middle of summer, I took the bowl into the kitchen and cleaned it up.

Yuan Rong pulled Yaofeng to the side.

She whispered: "Xiaofeng, Xiaoxia, she may need some time to get used to, don't worry too much about it......"

"Mother-in-law, it's okay, she's right, it's my fault. ”

Yao Feng smiled slightly, but Yuan Rong was slightly stunned.

She seemed to see the slightest tiredness in the corners of each other's eyes, and the emptiness and loneliness in her heart.

These eight years.

Xiaofeng is also bitter......

"Mother-in-law, it seems to be Xiao Xia's birthday in a few days, right?" asked Yao Feng.

"I can't imagine you remember ......"

Yuan Rong chuckled, pulled her hair, and inadvertently revealed the amazement of the past.

"I don't know what this kid is going to do, but it would be great if you two could take this opportunity to reconcile......

"Mom, it's all packed. ”

At this time, Midsummer came out of the kitchen, and the two quickly stopped discussing.

"Mother-in-law, then I'll go first. ”

Knowing that Midsummer didn't want to stay with him longer, Yao Feng planned to leave.

Seeing this, Yuan Rong didn't know what the other party thought, but she was helpless.

She sighed secretly in her heart, glanced at Midsummer, and still persuaded: "Xiao Xia, go and send your brother." ”

Whoever started the trouble should end it.

The only ones who can untie the knot are themselves.

Although Midsummer was reluctant in her heart, under the gaze of her mother's eyes, she finally pursed her mouth and sent Yaofeng out.

Out the door.

The two of them slowly descended in the hallway.

The sunset outside the window, from the leaky window between the corridors, sprinkled a little spot of light and fell on the two of them.

Yao Feng forward, midsummer followed.

The two were silent, only the sound of clackling footsteps.

Yao Feng subconsciously glanced at the midsummer shoes behind him.

Ordinary white sneakers, due to wearing for a long time, are slightly yellow, but they are neat and clean.

"How many sizes do you wear, I'll give you shoes for your birthday." ”

Yao Feng said tentatively.

"No, I don't. ”

Midsummer's face was expressionless.

"Then what do you want, you can tell me......"

"I don't want anything. ”

Yao Feng wanted to say something, but Midsummer stopped and said indifferently: "It's here, you can go out of the community by yourself." ”

Yao Feng was stunned, turned his head to look, and found that he had reached the first floor.

Seeing the green trees outside the building, he didn't feel a trace of warmth in his heart.

He turned to look at Midsummer, who was two heads shorter than him, his eyes were complicated, and his lips moved slightly......

I wanted to say something, but I didn't know how to say it.

Midsummer looked at each other coldly, turned around and walked upstairs.

"Wait......"

Yao Feng was slightly startled, took out a bank card from his pocket, and looked guilty: "Xiao Xia, there is some money in this card, you and your stepmother use it first......"

Syllable!

With a soft sound, the card hit the ground.

Midsummer slapped the bank card handed by the other party.

Her eyes became more and more indifferent, and she said coldly: "Yaofeng, you remember for me, my mother and I don't need your pity." ”

"Don't pretend to be a good person anymore, I'm disgusting!"

As she spoke, she frowned and gritted her teeth slightly: "Let me tell you, even if my mother and I starve to death, we won't ask you for help!"

"Xiao Xia, I'm your brother, you and your stepmother ......"

"No! you're not my brother!"

Midsummer suddenly raised his voice, his face turned red, and he said sadly: "My brother has already died in the army!!"

When the words fell, Yao Feng was slightly stunned, and his pupils fluttered......

Looking at the midsummer with red eyes, my heart is like a knife.
