Chapter 29: Weakness
Grandma Huang seems to have a very important meaning in Li Xun's life, but Su Nian can't connect this bitter old man who lives alone in the shantytown with this kid who fights in the wine pond meat forest every day.
"Why does Grandma Huang call you little master?" Su Nian was a little curious, "Look at the way she cherishes you, my community service came here to chat with Grandma Huang a few times, and Grandma Huang is full of praise for you, a little young master." ”
Li Xun was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Su Nian, coughed, and there was a trace of panic in his eyes, he hurriedly covered it up and lowered his head, "What else did grandma say?"
"Little master, it's done, come over and eat it quickly. Grandma Huang's hoarse voice came from the house, accompanied by a cough, and the whole quiet alley came faintly, like a dream, and there was a feeling of unreality.
Li Xun was stunned for a moment, his eyes were stunned for a while, he turned his head to look at Grandma Huang's stumbling back, he smiled lightly, looked at Grandma's back, and suddenly his eyes turned red, he coughed, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, and looked back at Su Nian, "Maybe it's because I'm too squeamish." ”
He shouted and went into the house.
Su Nian was confused for a moment, and then he reacted, he just answered his first question, smiled bitterly, and turned around and went into the room.
The smell in the house slowly dissipated after opening the window for a long time, but the spicy smell still choked Li Xun's cough.
"Niannian, when did you come?" Grandma Huang wiped her hands with a smile, walked to the kitchen and filled another bowl of rice, with three dishes on the table, which looked full of color, flavor and flavor, "Great, come and eat." ”
She sat down, took the bowl handed by Grandma Huang, and smiled.
"Little master, I have liked my cooking since I was a child, and I love to eat fried meat with chili peppers. Grandma Huang sandwiched the vegetables for Li Xun, and after three or two clicks, sharp points were already emerging in Li Xun's bowl.
Li Xun immersed himself in eating deliciously, and after a while, he finished eating a big bowl of rice, Su Nian was surprised, and watched Li Xun go over and serve another bowl.
Grandma Huang's eyes were full of love when she looked at Li Xun, "Since he was a child, he has been a picky eater and doesn't like to eat, but the food I cook for him, he eats very well, if he didn't grow up eating my food, where could he grow so tall." ”
"Yes, grandma. Li Xun stuffed a large mouthful of meat, chewing so much that his cheeks bulged, "If you cook for me every day, I can still grow taller." ”
Grandma Huang's eyes were full of appreciation, poured a glass of water for Li Xun, patted him on the back, and coaxed the child, "Our little master is already very tall, so you don't need to grow any longer." She pinched Li Xun's face, "It's just that this meat is a little less, but you can eat more." ”
Two large mouthfuls of food, Li Xun finished eating, put the dishes and chopsticks on the table, Grandma Huang walked over with a kind smile, ready to clean up the dishes and chopsticks of several people.
"It's really you, young master. Su Nian couldn't help muttering, turned his head and patted Li Xun, "What are you doing, why don't you go and brush the dishes quickly, wait for grandma to brush it for you." ”
Li Xun gulped and swallowed the last bite of rice, looked at Su Nian stunned for a long time, stood up obediently, and took the dishes and chopsticks.
"Hey, little master, don't get started!" Grandma Huang hurriedly rushed over and took the dishes and chopsticks in Li Xun's hand.
Su Nian sighed, helped Grandma Huang to press on the stool, and smiled bitterly, "Grandma, let him do it, you see that you are tired for most of the day, just to let him have a meal, you have to wash the dishes." She patted Grandma Huang on the shoulder, "I'm going to help too." ”
She rolled up her sleeves and headed for the kitchen.
But as soon as my feet stepped into the kitchen, I heard a crisp clatter from the kitchen.
Su Nian's eyes widened in shock, and Grandma Huang behind her had already run over tremblingly, reaching out to take Li Xun's hand, her eyes full of worry and distress, "Little master, are you hurt?" Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, grandma is here." ”
She reached out to hold Li Xun in her arms and reached out to touch Li Xun's head.
The whole room was silent for a moment, and Su Nian looked at Grandma Huang in astonishment as if she was coaxing a child, her eyes were red and her eyes were full of distress.
It feels so weird.
Li Xun lowered his head and looked at Grandma Huang, who was lying on his chest, still holding him in his arms, his brows were slightly furrowed, he felt his nose sour, he suddenly hugged Grandma Huang tightly, and buried his head on Grandma Huang's shoulder, "Grandma, you go back with me, I, I can really ......"
"Don't say stupid things, kid. Grandma Huang patted Li Xun's buttocks gently, looked up at him, and touched Li Xun's face, "You can come over to see grandma every day, grandma is very happy, how can I still owe you?"
This beautiful picture of a family reunion, Su Nian was also a little sour, she quietly exited the room, stood outside the door, and looked at the sparse stars in the sky.
The pollution in the city is getting worse, and there are no stars in the sky anymore.
Saying goodbye to Grandma Huang, Su Nian and Li Xun walked slowly towards the road they came.
I couldn't see a taxi for a long time, and the night breeze was blowing on my cheeks.
"Don't you have to go to work today?" Su Nian chatted without a word, "I see that you are so busy every day. ”
"Hmm. Li Xun pulled down the sleeves of his T-shirt, put his hands in his pockets, and lowered his head to carry the stones on the ground, "Every time I come to see grandma, I take a day off." ”
"You ......" Su Nian raised her head, looked at Li Xun's side face and stopped talking, she took a deep breath, "Can you tell me about your past?"
Li Xun was stunned for a moment, then continued to hang his head and walked forward quietly, "What can I do." ”
He said lightly, which brought ripples in Su Nian's heart, she clearly saw Grandma Huang's excessive care for Li Xun, and she also saw Li Xun's care and love for Grandma Huang, as if she was dependent on her own family.
But why did he never mention everything he had done?
Su Nian clenched her fists, lowered her eyes, hesitated, and after hesitation, she still opened her mouth, "There are some words, I know that I am an outsider, you may not like to listen to them, but ......" She frowned, and after a while, her voice suddenly exploded in the silent night, "If you love Grandma Huang so much, knowing that you are now getting drunk every day, singing songs every night, and falling into the quagmire of dogs and horses, will she worry about you?"
Li Xun's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Feeling that the aura of the person next to him had completely changed, Su Nian was slightly stunned, rubbed Su Nian's hair with a fist, and slammed it on the tree behind Su Nian, with a muffled sound, Su Nian's face suddenly turned white, raised his head, and looked at Li Xun's face who was close at hand.
There was no trace of a smile in Li Xun's eyes, he was close to Su Nian, for the first time, Su Nian found that this boy who had been regarded as a little child by her was so tall, his whole body was tense, as if he was a beast about to attack others, "I warn you, don't tell Grandma Huang, not a word." ”
Shivered for no reason, Su Nian suddenly felt that Li Xun's cold eyes seemed to take her into a pool of stagnant water, suffocating coldly.
"She's so important to you. Su Nian pretended to be calm, raised his head, and looked directly into Li Xun's eyes, "Then why don't you live a good life." ”
Li Xun slowly withdrew his hand, he took a step back, looked at Su Nian, released his clenched fist, he turned his head and walked forward, leaving only one sentence, "You don't have to worry about it." ”
But as soon as my feet stepped into the kitchen, I heard a crisp clatter from the kitchen.
Su Nian's eyes widened in shock, and Grandma Huang behind her had already run over tremblingly, reaching out to take Li Xun's hand, her eyes full of worry and distress, "Little master, are you hurt?" Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, grandma is here." ”
She reached out to hold Li Xun in her arms and reached out to touch Li Xun's head.
The whole room was silent for a moment, and Su Nian looked at Grandma Huang in astonishment as if she was coaxing a child, her eyes were red and her eyes were full of distress.

Li Xun's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Grandma Huang is like Li Xun's weakness.
