The group continued to rush home.

Passing by the sugarcane field again, Li Wei said, "Do you want to eat sugarcane?"

Xiao Mu also wanted to eat, but thinking that there were no adults around, if he easily stole other people's sugarcane, wouldn't the owner be scolded when he saw it, and if it was serious, he might be beaten or fined.

So he said, "Forget it, I still don't want it, you have to eat it yourself." ”

"Smack"

As soon as Xiao Mu's words fell, a crisp sound sounded in his ears, and he saw that Li Wei had already jumped into the ground and knocked down all the sugarcane.

Then the others jumped in the footsteps.

Xiao Mu stood on the side of the road in a daze, frightened.

It's too much to steal other people's sugar cane so blatantly and openly.

After everyone came up, they were eating sugar cane, but Xiao Mu was empty-handed.

He didn't speak, he walked silently.

Li Wei said, "Xiao Mu, don't you really want to eat?"

Xiao Mu swallowed her saliva and said, "Well, I don't eat it." ”

"I said don't pretend if you want to eat, what are you afraid of, no one will say anything about you, besides, where is there anyone here!"

Immediately, everyone also echoed and said: "That's it, don't be afraid, it's not you, let's run away when we see someone!"

Xiao Mu thought about it carefully, and what he said was true, besides, they all ate it secretly, but he was the only one who didn't steal it, and people wouldn't be extrajudicial when they saw it, and they would definitely be considered to have stolen sugarcane together.

Without doing anything, he jumped down and skimmed a sugar cane.

Everyone smiled, "That's right, if you want to eat, you have to pay the price, do it yourself, have enough food and clothing, and others won't help you." ”

Later, as long as there is sugarcane, every time you pass by, you will skim one or two, and when the owner is there, you will ask the master, and sometimes you will send a few more when you meet a good person, and when there is no one, it will be stolen.

However, as time goes by, it seems that it has become accustomed to it, and it may also be financial, and the host will not say anything even if he sees it.

When you return to the village, the people in the village will greet you warmly, but some people will inevitably say ridiculously: "Yo, Zhang Xiaomu is back, you have the opportunity to go to Beichen to study." ”

I don't know what this ridiculous words mean, whether it is blessing Xiao Mu or sarcastically mocking Xiao Mu, this is unknown, in short, Xiao Mu is very uncomfortable listening to it.

But what if it's uncomfortable, after all, it's a senior in the village, and I can't say anything, so it's impossible to quarrel with others about it.

You can see your home when you cross the village, Xiao Mu stopped for a while, looking at the familiar place, it was still a familiar taste.

Nothing seems to have been adapted, and the fiery sunset reflects half the sky.

He said silently, "I'm back, I don't know what's going on at home." ”

As far as the eye can see, wisps of smoke come out of the kitchen, and the occasional rooster can be heard crowing.

Xiao Mu knew that cooking had already begun at home, and he could eat when he got home.

Running all the way back to the house, I saw Zhang Laohan squatting by the kitchen fire, cooking with a pipe in his mouth.

Seeing that Xiao Mu was back, he stood up and said happily: "Oh, Xiao Mu is back, hurry up, put the schoolbag down first." ”

Xiao Mu went back to the room and put down the schoolbag, immediately turned around and ran out again, and rushed into Zhang Laohan's arms.

In just one week, it seems that several years have passed, don't meet again, it seems that there is a lot to say to Zhang Laohan.

Zhang Laohan had black sugarcane ash foam at the corner of Xiao Mu's mouth, so he asked: "You stupid boy, did you steal other people's sugarcane?"

"yes, hehe, how do you know?"

Zhang Laohan stretched out his hand and wiped the residue on the corner of Xiao Mu's mouth, "Look at you, you don't wipe your mouth clean, everyone knows it." ”

"By the way, stealing other people's sugar cane, didn't they say anything about you?"

Xiao Mu smiled triumphantly, "Where does anyone know, people haven't seen it, how can you say about me, besides, I didn't steal it alone, they stole it too." ”

"Oh, so you came back with them. ”

"Well, yes!"

Zhang Laohan continued to smoke, looked at the flickering firelight, and said seriously: "Okay, okay, you'll play with others, it's best, I thought you came back alone, and you wouldn't be with them." ”

In fact, Zhang Laohan didn't know that Xiao Mu's accident at school was helped by friends in the village.

"By the way, are you still used to it in school?"

Habit?

It's impossible to get used to it, and I think about going home all the time, where do I get used to it, but I don't want to say it.

So he said, "It's okay, there's everything in the school, it's good." ”

When he said this, Xiao Mu was expressionless, and he didn't look happy at all.

Zhang Laohan is a person who has come over, he has seen through everything a long time ago, and knows that what Xiao Mu said is a lie, and sadness and sadness can be seen in Xiao Mu's eyes.

But even so, he didn't want to pierce it, so he said: "Then you are quite adaptable, and you can adapt to the gods there so quickly." ”

"Is the teacher getting along well with your classmates, is anyone bullying you?"

"No, Mr. Ma is very good to me, and my classmates also talk and laugh with each other, which is very good, but I basically play with Xu Hui and rarely play with others. ”

"Hahaha, I'll just say, it'll be fine, your grandmother still doesn't believe it, so I have to worry about you. ”

"However, I'm going to say a few words to you, you can't always play with Xu Hui, you have to expand your circle of friends, otherwise if Xu Hui is not there, then what will you do!"

Zhang Laohan's words touched Xiao Mu a little, he was right, he couldn't just have Xu Hui as a friend.

Let's not talk about Xu Hui's transfer or something, at present, it seems that Xu Hui is playing well with their class, and his circle is much wider than his own, and he is obviously outdated.

But when I think of my roommates, it's a headache, and I can't get along with them at all.

I think about bullying myself at every turn, and I do bad things at every turn, and I can't fit in.

"Okay, I got it. ”

The answer was very cold, like an emotionless thing.

Zhang Laohan got up, picked up the kitchen knife and said to Xiao Mu: "Grandpa will get you some bacon, I know you like to eat it the most, now that you go to school, you can rarely eat it, so I got it for you at home." ”

It was the only few strings of bacon in the house, which were originally eaten when the guests came to the house, but now Zhang Laohan actually took it out.

Xiao Mu was a little moved, it seemed that his status at home was like their child, not like an adopted child.

To put yourself in your shoes, and to take out everything you can't afford to eat is how much you love yourself.
