I was stunned, my heart suddenly cooled down, my scar was in front of Xia's eyes, Xia actually said, it's okay, if you beat him, it will make the two children suffer more beatings in the future, Xia also felt something, turned his head and asked, "Did he ask you for money?"

"No, I don't. ”

Natsu reached straight into my pocket, took out his wallet, there was nothing in it, Natsu closed it, threw it to me, jumped out of the counter, and yelled, "Why?" With that, he ran out.

I opened the counter and walked out, Xia was gone, and ten minutes later, Xia ran back, sweaty, with a layer of water on his forehead, his hair was scattered, and a few sticks were stuck to his face, holding a handful of scattered money in his hand, give it to me.

"Don't talk to me, if you give money to animals, you are doing evil, you know no. Xia stuffed the money into my wallet and glanced at me, this glance was meaningful, there was no previous scrutiny, more helplessness.

When the guests left, Xia came over with a bottle of medicine, I don't know what Xia sprayed me, the scars hurt so much, I couldn't help frowning, Xia asked me, "You were beaten, what about him." ”

"I didn't fight. ”

"You're so tall, you're so strong, you're not even that thing. ”

"Those two kids are still there, how can they beat his father. ”

"Oh. "Xia didn't think of this layer, I thought of this layer, but more importantly, I was so tired, tired, so tired that I didn't have the strength to fight back.

Xia Lai went back and forth to pack the wine bottles, I sat at the cash register, one mark on one side of my two hands, faintly painful, I was afraid, afraid that my body was not as good as before, and there would be long scars. Why did the man bully me for no reason and now, and I don't have a trace of revenge anger now, but have this leisure time to look at the wound, I exhaled deeply.

There is a small light at the cashier, I stared at the small lamp and saw that I was distracted, there was a moth flying over, a strong flutter, there were a lot of moths in summer, a group of people under the street lamp, but this one fell behind, a moth alone, I took out a piece of paper, carefully wrapped it, walked to the door and put it away, I don't know why I did it, suddenly Buddha nature up, thinking that there is nothing wrong with the moth, it is better to let it out, let it find a companion.

After closing, Natsu sat down at the counter, looked at my hand, and asked, "Does it still hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt anymore. ”

"Since it doesn't hurt, let's do it tonight. ”

"What are you going to do. ”

"Draw it back, why was it smoked for nothing. ”

I didn't speak, Natsu held a rope in his hand to tie the wine crate and shoved it into my hand. "Take it, it's tonight. ”

"I'm not going, their kids are still at home, so you just beat him like this." ”

"I didn't just beat him, I wanted to kill him. Xia said angrily.

"You can't beat him. ”

"I can't beat it, I can't help it. The whip in Xia's hand shook in his hand and was about to deform.

"If you don't go, I'm. Xia took the whip from my hand, looked at me and said, "I know you have a good temper, but I tell you, if you are beaten, you must not bear it, in my experience, if you endure it, they will continue to beat you, even harder." Xia held the whip and said again. "It's not just because of this one thing, he doesn't make money, he also beats his wife and children, it's too arrogant. ”

I didn't know how to persuade Natsu, trying to hold Natsu, Natsu glared at me, turned around and left, I quickly closed the door of the store and followed Natsu.

Xia Yi kicked the door open and walked into the house, where the man was in the house, sitting on a pile of clothes, drinking wine, Xia Yi whipped it, "You're fucking crazy." ”

"It's not crazy, there's a whip. Saying that, Xia took advantage of the man's ability to react, whipped again, and said, "It's flat." ”

The man stopped doing it, and wanted to snatch the whip and smoke Xia, Xia wrapped the whip in his hand, pointed at the man and yelled, "You try, I even dare to chase Brother Jia with a knife, you beat me and try it." ”

The man drank and didn't listen to Xia's words, he still had to whip Xia, I grabbed Xia and pulled him to run quickly, Xia felt that something was wrong and shouted, "Wenhao, Wenyu, get up, come out quickly." ”

Wenhao hasn't slept all the time, when his father was pumped, he has been watching in the house, he has been holding his younger brother and waiting for Xia to go out, Xia asked them to run, I pulled Xia to run, the man may have drunk and was tired, and he didn't chase out of the house.

After Xia came out, he looked at Wenhao and said, "You can't go back, I beat your father, your father must be angry with you, and you will be beaten when you go back." ”

The boy was still so calm, hugged Wenyu, and said, "I'll go find my mother." ”

"Your mother earns money, you go to die. Xia La, who lived in Wenhao, couldn't think of where to go for a while, so I said to Xia, "Go to my house." ”

Xia didn't talk and asked Wenhao, "You go to the monkey's house, he should be home alone now." ”

Wenhao nodded, hugged his younger brother and turned around, his younger brother was dangling on his shoulder, as if he was sleeping, Wenhao called Xia and asked, "Sister, without him, my brother and mother will never be beaten again, right?"

I stood next to Xia, Xia was silent for a few seconds, looked at Wenhao, and said word by word, "Then your brother will be ridiculed, saying that there is a murderer brother, going to school, leaving school, making friends, all living in ridicule, when you grow up, you will not be beaten, but my brother will live in ridicule all his life." ”

Wenhao turned around, hugged his younger brother and left, leaving us with bruises and scars, Xia didn't look at it, he also turned around and left, walked to the bar, washed his face, and the sweat behind his back was printed on his clothes, which looked incompatible with the color of the clothes.

"Go to my house. I asked Natsu.

"No, I have a place. ”

"I really laughed with you that day. I said.

"I know, I know, you let me live with kindness, but I can't live in your house without knowing the number all the time, and I received it with kindness. Xia said and rode away.

I drove home by myself, trying to find someone to talk to, but no, I couldn't sleep, Xia's vocabulary book was still on the sofa, I wanted to open it and take a look, maybe I would be sleepy when I looked at it.

I opened it in the middle and looked at a random page, but the more I looked at it, the more energetic I became, and I couldn't help but turn it. On the first page, a blank piece of paper, with no name, only eight large characters, was forcefully copied several times, 'Eternal words are worthy of life, and they seek more blessings.' I looked at the words, thinking about Xia, thinking about the days that had been close to a month, and my heart jumped a little.

The days of summer are the days I envy, this month, what I have experienced, I have not experienced in the past ten years, the days are in full swing, I must go all out, ten years, I work silently, the days are as plain as water, even in the most difficult time of the company, it is just a partner running around, and I am still just sitting in the office, bowing my head and drawing. I have been taught since I was a child to be tolerant, tolerant, kind, and generous, but Xia is different, she must not be bullied, people bully me, I will be more than baht, today, Xia angrily took the whip and told me, saying that forbearance is useless, I have known this truth for a long time.

I kind of miss the chatter in the dead of night these days, and the occasional snacks, drinks, and the smell of barbecue. At this moment, I miss even more the feeling of having someone sitting next to me, reading a book, without saying a word, accompanying me.

I scared this sensitive little kid away.

For a few days, I was at home, alone, melancholy, I was fed up with the sadness for no reason, looking at the ceiling, until I saw the dawn, I was used to the taste of sleeping in the sun, the warm taste, and my eyes were all fiery red when I closed my eyes.

The rainy season came, it rained for two days and two nights, non-stop, and there was no place to go in summer, so I went to live in the store again.

The city has not seen such heavy rain in all these years, the river is surging, the upstream is flooding, the city is waterlogged, and the trees are crooked. The bar was no exception, the curtain was washed open by the water, and it was naked and soaked in yellow water. I only found out the news the next morning, Xia lived in the store, saw the water coming in, kept dredging, and only called me at dawn. That night, I took sleeping pills and slept soundly, not even hearing the sound of rain.

In the morning, Xia and I stood in the water to carry the seats, moved to the roof to dry, a trip to the street at the door of the water did not pass the calves, after the water in the house receded, there were traces of yellow mud thought, Xia sat cross-legged on the counter, looking at the garbage dump-like bar, scolded, "God is fucking blind, pick a good place to rain, the desert does not rain, there is no shortage here, and it is still raining." ”
