At the time of the funeral, I stood in the most hidden place in the courtyard, looking at Xia in the crowd, Xia stood on the side of the house, talking to people, the house was a funeral, but in the courtyard, people stood at random, chatting about the trivial things of life, someone asked Xia, was he admitted to university? Some people said that Xia had grown taller. Whoever else has a foundation to build a two-story building, who goes to the south to work, and brings back a daughter-in-law.

The suona blew up and began to go out of the funeral, the moment the woman went out with the coffin, the tearing cry came, the body was weak and couldn't stand up, Xia stretched out his hand to support her, the woman leaned around, and the crying voice resounded through the clouds, "You are a knife from the sky, how ruthless, leave our mother and leave away, what should we do, you have no conscience." "My people, why did you just leave? "Oh my God, why are you like that? "The crying rang out louder and louder, and the absolute grief was overwhelming.

Wenhao followed behind, didn't speak, and the tears didn't fall, I looked at Wenhao, and I was anxious, so much watching, I cried, until I went out, Wenhao didn't cry, I hugged Wenyu, didn't let him mourn, he put his arms around my neck, and asked in a milky voice, "Dad will never come back, right?"

I nodded, thinking about how to say it tactfully, so as not to leave a shadow in his young heart. But I don't seem to need to explain anything, this seems to be a good thing in Wen Yu's heart, "Mom and brother will never be beaten again." ”

I hugged Wen Yu and left, he was too young, what did these things have to do with him. I didn't eat, I drove to the mall in the city with Wenyu in my arms, he was very happy that I could play with him, he had never played here, I exchanged all the money in my body for game currency, accompanied him on the small train, smashed the gopher, jumped around on the trampoline, he forgot about the outside, and I forgot about the thirty years.

I looked at Wen Yu who was smashing the gopher on the side, and made my birthday wish, hoping that this little child and his brother would meet a good person and let them grow up happily. But when I think about her mother's profession, I think it's a pipe dream.

Xia called and anxiously asked me where I was, I told Xia that I was leading Wenyu to play in the amusement park, Xia listened, was silent for a while, and said okay.

In the evening, the sunset shines into the playroom through the window, I sit on the child's bench, looking at the sunset outside the window, today is about to pass, I turn on the phone, my mother's phone, I took the phone, or verbose, I heard that I wanted to cry, so I quickly said, "Mom, I'm on a business trip, jet lag, go back to China and tell you." ”

"Don't be too tired, travel every day, who can bear it, earn so much money, and can't catch up with a healthy body..." I listened to my mother's words, tears rolled in my eyes, my throat choked, and I quickly closed my eyes and forced the tears back.

Wen Yu poked me gently, walked to my feet, grabbed me with his little hand, he saw my tears hanging in the corners of his eyes that had not fallen, wiped them away with his fat little hands, and looked at me with big round eyes.

I smiled at Wen Yu, I don't know if the smile on the corner of my mouth is very similar to a fake smile, but I really want to smile at Wen Yu, I picked him up and sent him home, he sat in my arms, looked back at the playroom, "I've been playing all afternoon, I haven't played enough." I asked Wen Yu.

"I want my brother to play. Wen Yu leaned on my shoulder, looked at the playroom, and said to me.

Xia stood on the street waiting for me, I handed Wenyu to Xia, Wenyu jumped up and ran to Xia, Xia picked up Wenyu, looked at me very happily, put Wenyu down, stood beside me, and said, "Happy birthday." "Squatted down again to teach Wenyu," said, wishing my brother a happy birthday. ”

I came home alone, this is the most lonely day in my past few months, this feeling, indescribable, just like a calm person on the outside, he may be going on a grand symphony in his heart, all kinds of sounds converge, but they can't form a tune; it's like sitting on the cross street, but it's like falling into a vacuum of the universe, I can't hear any sound, only the shaking of the figure, this feeling is too uncomfortable, I can't describe it, I clean up myself, put my bangs up, ready to go out, I want to go to the nightclub, go to the most hilarious place, rejoice, I have prepared a suit, tonight, I want to pick up the first girl I met in the crowd of dancers, find another girl you like me, spend my thirty years old, I'm vulgar, this is the only way I want to come out and celebrate.

I was about to go out, and the phone at the door remembered, "Brother, the security guard at your door won't let me in, you open the door for me." ”

My calm heart suddenly churned, and suddenly made waves, I didn't speak, opened the door and ran down, Xia stood in the security room, carrying a cake in his hand, saw me running over, Xia drilled through the barrier, held the cake and said to me, "Happy birthday." ”

This is the third time Xia wishes me a happy birthday today, I took the cake and went upstairs with Xia, Xia followed me and asked, "Are you going out?"

"No, I don't. ”

"Then you're dressed so well, do you have someone in your house?"

"No, I don't. ”

I opened the door, Natsu glanced at me, I quickly opened the door, and said, "It's okay if you don't leave the door open, ventilate." ”

"You're not afraid of mosquitoes. Natsu reached out and closed the door.

I didn't have anything to eat at home, Xia only brought a cake, I wanted to take Xia out to eat, but Xia suddenly took out a pack of noodles from his schoolbag and said, "You want to eat longevity noodles, how can you go out to eat." ”

Xia ordered a whole pack of dried noodles in the kitchen, and when it was brought out, I was shocked, full of pots, and eggs bought from the supermarket downstairs, and six poached eggs were lying down, which means that it is smooth.

Xia carefully took out the cake from the box and inserted candles one by one, "Wait, how many do you insert?"

I watched Xia count out thirty candles, stick them on the cake one by one, and stretched out my hand to stop them, Xia said, "Are you one year old?"

"You just plug in two meanings, and it's not good for a while. ”

Summer lit a candle and asked me to make a wish, I folded my hands and made a wish, I repeated the wish several times, the prayer must come true, this is the first wish I have made in the past 30 years that has nothing to do with myself, and the wish must come true.

"You may wish for it. I said to Natsu.

"I'm not on my birthday, what a wish. ”

"Oh yes, in case a piece comes true. ”

Xia said no, his hands were still slowly folded, rubbing back and forth under the table, and then his hands were raised and placed in front of his face, suddenly, Xia opened one eye, looked at me happily and asked, "Will this take away your blessings?" ”

"Then I'll give you some, I'll let me go. ”

"I want to make a wish and wish you a good night's sleep. "Natsu said her wish, I said the blessing to her, and she gave it to me.

I ate the noodles until the last bite, Xia was also full, sat under the sofa, looked at the cake that had not yet started, and asked, "What about this cake, do you still eat it?"

"Eat, it's my birthday, I have to eat. ”

"I can't eat it. ”

"Then sit here and digest it, eat it later, and talk first. ”

I got up to get the drink, and when I opened it and handed it to Xia, I remembered that Xia didn't drink the drink opened by others at all, and was about to take it back, but Xia took it and took a sip, I looked at Xia, and Xia didn't refuse my drink.

"What's wrong with you today. I was a little puzzled and asked, after all, Xia had just returned from the funeral, and I was afraid that Xia would be stimulated.

"No, what's wrong. ”

"Why do you drink the water I opened, didn't you say before that you wouldn't drink water that you can't see the source clearly?"

"What's wrong with taking a sip, it's delicious. Xia said and took another sip.

I smiled and sat opposite Xia, because I had just finished eating a big bowl of noodles, and my body was a little hot, so I took off the thin windbreaker I was wearing when I went out just now, this time, I forgot the sleeve in my pocket, and fell to the ground with a click, Xia looked down at the things on the ground, looked up at me who was still undressing, and slowly put the drink in my hand on the table, I saw this, and quickly kicked it under the sofa, walked to Xia, took the drink she hadn't put on the table, and drank it up, the water flowed from my mouth into my neck, I drank it all in one go, turned upside down and signaled to Xia, and said anxiously"If you can drink it, there's nothing in it, it's just a drink. ”

Xia patted me on the back vigorously, I coughed badly, Xia said, "I know, I know, I came for my birthday, that's what I know." ”

I drank too much, something got stuck in my throat, swallowed hard, looked at Xia, and said, "You can take the water yourself and drink it." ”

"I don't drink it, you eat the cake. ”

I cut the cake and gave the best cream to Xia, who hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't eat cake, you have a birthday, you eat it all." ”

"It's delicious, you taste it. I handed it to Natsu, who shrank his head back and waved his hand.

"I don't eat it, I can't get used to it. "Natsu pushed the cake to me.

"Why?"

Natsu sat up straight, looked at the cake and said.

"When I was a child, I once saw someone celebrating their birthday, and I left a big cake from the KTV box, thinking that I had never eaten such a big cake before, so I might as well treat it as a birthday today, so I put the cake in a plastic bag and took it home. When I got home, I sat on the floor, ate all the cakes, and added all the plastic bags, it was so delicious, strawberry flavored, and then I fell asleep, and when I fell asleep, my stomach was uncomfortable, and it was like a knife spinning in my stomach, and the creamy smell was obviously in my stomach, but I began to get tired in my mouth, and I was disgusted and couldn't sleep, and I vomited it all out of my life. ”

Natsu felt that she had talked too much, and it was so disgusting that I stopped talking, and I asked, "Isn't it fresh, cake?" ”

"That is, I didn't know that the cake had been sitting for a long time, it was hot, and I had never tasted the taste of the cake, and I was happy. ”

Xia remembered the past, and knocked his hand on the table several times anxiously, "What is your birthday? I said.
