"What's wrong, Zhuangzhuang?" As soon as Chen's mother saw that Chen Anxiu didn't speak, she felt that something was wrong.

Chen Anxiu blocked his mother's sight with his body and said, "It's nothing, Mom, it's all good things, it's just cold, I'll take it to the small restaurant, and then get it back after a little processing at night." He originally just thought that Guo Yuchen might be young and spoiled by his family, some people don't understand the world very well, but his nature is not bad, it's good for Qingqing, some things will pass with a blind eye, how can people be perfect, but pack the leftovers back and give them to his girlfriend's family to eat, even if it is not a character problem, it is enough to see how disrespectful he is to his girlfriend's family.

His own adopted son, what idea can he have of which way his eyes turn, and what better than her, a mother? How could he be easily fooled, "I haven't eaten in such a high-end place yet, let me see how that dish is different from what we usually eat." ”

Speaking of which, Chen Anxiu would add fuel to the fire if he blocked it again, and hurriedly persuaded him at the moment, "Mom, it is estimated that Xiao Guo is young, some things have not been thought through, on a hot day, you must not be angry with him." It's not worth it to be angry. ”

Chen's mother was not as angry as Chen Anxiu expected, she looked at the food with a stiff face, and said calmly, "Zhuangzhuang, throw it in the trash can outside." ”

When Chen Anxiu was packing up those lunch boxes, he heard his mother say hatefully, "Qingqing, a bear child, has read books for so many years, and she has eaten them all in her stomach." ”

"When it comes to falling in love, who can guarantee that there is no time to be confused, Mom, don't blame Qingqing too much, let's talk about it at home if there is something."

"One or two don't let me worry. I kind of understand, what I owe you in my last life, I am here to pay off my debts in this life. ”

Chen Anxiu helped her sit down on the edge of the bed, "Mom, you will pay it back for another fifty years in this life, and it will be almost the same in the next life." ”

Chen's mother glared at him, "This life is not enough, and in the next life, you will still expect me to serve you and think beautifully." ”

"Who made me your son, I don't depend on you, who do I depend on."

"yes, who let you have my son." Chen's mother felt a sour and bitter heart, when the eldest brother brought the child over, it was just a little bit, and her eyes didn't open when she was in the small quilt, she had no milk to feed, and the child was not in good health. His father always said that she was too much in charge, but isn't it all like this for mothers? I am always worried that the child has been wronged outside and suffered a loss.

"Zhuangzhuang, did I manage too much about you and Zhang Shinian?"

"No, Mom, there's a problem between the two of us." This kind of thing outsiders want to interfere in, and the role is limited, the problem is on the two of them, "Mom, did Qingqing make you think too much about it?" ”

"Xiao Guo has only been here for a few days, I originally wanted to see more. Qingqing is willing to lead people back, and she must be willing. I'm afraid that if you talk too much, you won't want to hear it. ”

"Mom, don't think nonsense, Qingqing is not the kind of girl who is not sensible, she can figure it out herself."

*

When Chen Anxiu went out, Guo Yuchen had already left, and Chen Tianqing was cleaning up the melon skin on the table, and a whole watermelon was gnawing on the ground.

"Big brother, ...... are you" Chen Tianqing saw Junya's packaging bag that Chen Anxiu was carrying.

"Xiao Guo said that he brought it back for our family to taste, and my mother didn't want to eat it."

Chen Tianqing's face immediately showed a look of shame and annoyance, bit his lip and said, "This, no, big brother, I didn't move much when I saw these dishes, it was a pity to throw them away, I wanted to pack them back, how could he say that." ”

Chen Anxiu handed him a reassuring smile, motioned to the inner room and said, "Qingqing, don't worry, let's go out for a walk, in the past two days, I see that yellow peach has something to eat, let's go pick some and come back, Dad likes to eat this." ”

"Okay." Chen Tianqing took the watermelon rind into a plastic bag, grabbed the basket in the corner and followed Chen Anxiu out.

Walking outside the door, Chen Anxiu threw the food and watermelon rind he brought into the trash can, and asked Chen Tianqing, "Qingqing, how long have you known Xiao Guo?" ”

"We are alumni in two colleges, different departments in the same college, we have seen several times in the activities of the college, not very familiar, until the graduate students are in a school again, only slowly have a lot of contact, his popularity is not very good, but the grades are very good, we used to go out to eat and go shopping, until the time we went abroad a year ago, we officially talked about it, I interned in Nanjing, I broke my foot, it was very serious, he took special care of me, picked me up every day to and from work, and helped me buy food, took me to the hospital, I just thought, Bring it back to show you. didn't expect him to ......, "Who is honest, she is really disappointed, Guo Yuchen is his first love, and she was originally the future partner she identified, but that person treated her family like this, she was a little indulged in this relationship, but there was still at least a little sense, "To be honest, big brother, I'm quite contradictory, I've been with him for more than a year, it's impossible to say that there is no emotion, he used to be like this to others, I can comfort myself, I urge him, he can change slowly, but he does the same to you, It's hard for me to accept it, I've told him more than once in the past few days. ”

The two walked along the shade of the trees on the side of the road towards the mountain, Chen Anxiu said, "Qingqing, we don't want to interfere with your decision, after all, your future life is your own, but if that person lacks respect for your family, at least it means that he doesn't pay enough attention to you." "Relatives don't really leave each other alone just because they say a word of respect and non-interference.

Chen Tianqing was silent for a long time, and then made up his mind and said, "You're right, big brother. He's going back to school in a few days, and I'll make it clear to him before I go. ”

"You don't have to make your own decisions so quickly."

"It's not decided today, it's been thinking about it for the past few days. Isn't our mom angry? ”

"It's a little bit, but it's understandable. She loves you, and naturally she doesn't want you to be wronged in the future. ”

〈It's a ton of tons. This was said by Lou Nan.

Sugar Ball held a half-meter-long dolphin in his arms as a gift from a hotel and said, "yes, Ton Ton came with his father." "What his dad said, said that that person must also be a ton of dads.

It was too late when Lou Nan wanted to block his son's mouth, he grinned at Chen Anxiu, and quickly pulled his son away.

Chen's father and Chen's mother looked at Chen Anxiu together, especially Chen's mother, she knew that Ji Junheng was on Green Island, and suspected that her son and that person had been in contact again.

Chen Anxiu touched his nose and said, "Mom, Qingqing, Xiao Guo, you eat first, I'll go out and make a call." ”

He also fled in shame.

As soon as he went out, Chen Chen Anxiu called Zhang Shinian, and when he came up, he asked, "Where are you?" ”

Zhang Shinian seemed to have expected it, and quickly replied, "Western food on the fifth floor." ”

Chen Anxiu suddenly remembered that before entering the hotel, he seemed to see the billboard at the door saying that the western restaurant was holding a barbecue season this month, and those billboards were placed by their engineering department before, so he took a special look, and it turned out that the two of them were eating barbecue here.

The western restaurant is located on the periphery of the Junya Hotel, forming a semi-circular arc, with a semi-open kitchen in the middle, all kinds of barbecue meat are brought out one after another, Chen Anxiu found two people in the window seat, there are a lot of barbecue on the table, and there is a glass of juice in front of each of them.

As soon as Chen Anxiu arrived, he pulled him to sit beside him, "Dad, this meat is delicious, you eat this." This mushroom is also delicious, and it is even more delicious when dipped in this sauce. Zhang Shinian also helped to ask for another glass of juice.

"I'm eating down there, Tonton." He just came to take a look, but he didn't plan to eat here.

"Then Dad, you can try this first."

"Okay then."

When they were eating, they saw two children coming in with a giant dolphin in their arms, bigger than the one with the sugar ball, about a meter and a half, pulling Chen Anxiu's sleeve, with envy in their eyes, "Dad, look, that dolphin is so beautiful,"

"It's very good-looking, you have to like it, Dad will buy you one another day."

Tons nodded obediently, but his eyes couldn't help but glance over there.

Zhang Shinian called the waiter over and asked for a while to find out that there is a barbecue season parent-child activity next door, and all guests who consume here can bring children between the ages of six and twelve to participate, and this dolphin is one of the prizes.

"Then let's go check it out." Zhang Shinian asked Chen Anxiu.

Chen Anxiu didn't want to go, but Ton Ton also stared at him with expectant eyes, flanked on both sides, and suffered from the enemy on his back and abdomen, no matter how firm Chen Anxiu was, he couldn't pretend to be indifferent, and he was defeated 1 to 2, and finally relented and said, "Then go and take a look." ”

But when he really saw those parent-child activities, Chen Anxiu had the urge to turn around and run, kicking shuttlecock, skipping rope in pairs, hopscotch, legging games, doing action guessing idioms, can those women in the planning department be a little more creative? He didn't want to offend his son, so he handed over the task of offending his son to Zhang Shinian, and he didn't believe that Zhang Shinian went back to kick shuttlecock and skipping rope.

The goal of the three of them was too obvious, as soon as they stood at the door, the waitress in charge of the reception saw them and warmly invited them to join, Zhang Shinian asked how to get the dolphin in a humble manner, and the answer was that three games must be completed.

He couldn't do one, and there were three, Chen Anxiu immediately retreated, but Zhang Shinian secretly held his wrist to stop his escape plan, "Let go." He didn't want to make too much trouble in public, so he whispered in Zhang Shinian's ear, "If you want to go, you and Ton Ton will go." ”

Zhang Shinian told him in the same low voice, "It seems that a person is a little embarrassed. ”

The corners of Chen Anxiu's eyes twitched, "Are you crazy, two people go up, the loss of face will only be doubled, and it will not be half divided." "Just kill him, it's enough to see him a male and female couple jumping the double rope there, if you want to change it to him and Zhang Shinian to jump, he would rather die, at least save some face.

"But tons want to go." Zhang Shinian raised his chin and gestured to the child with sparkling eyes.

"You are willing to be filial to your father, you go. I'm not going to die. Chen Anxiu gritted his teeth, and only had to insert two knives in his chest, so that he would die.

The waitress looked at these two handsome guys with different characteristics, muttering and biting her ears there, although the scene was so beautiful that the two of them wanted to participate, there were still people waiting for them behind, she plucked up her courage and asked, "Have the two gentlemen discussed?" Going to participate? ”

"Go."

"No, no." The two spoke almost simultaneously.

"Daddy."

"Tons and tons." Sure enough, as the mother said, the children are here to collect debts, but is this creditor trying to force him to death?

Zhang Shinian smiled elegantly and asked, "Miss, are there any other options?" ”

The waiter was so stunned that after a while, he pointed to the northeast corner, and said eagerly, "There is a person there who recognizes the national flag and plays balloons, because it is a little difficult, so there are not many people playing, if Mr. is interested, I can take you...... Go and see. ”

The identification of the national flag is to put a map of the world on the table with two semicircles put together, and there are a bunch of small national flags of various countries scattered next to it, asking to insert these small flags into the holes of the corresponding countries, Chen Anxiu counted roughly, there are about forty or fifty small national flags, no wonder no one plays, it is indeed a big project, as for the balloon side, there are twenty balloons stuck on a vertical wooden board, and there are thirty nails without sharp ends on the table three meters away, considering the safety of children, It makes sense not to have a pointed head, but to hit a target at a distance of three meters with such a nail, it is necessary to break it. This strength, this accuracy, how accurate it must be, ordinary people can complete it, and only then can there be ghosts.

The waiter also knew that this was very embarrassing, so he took the initiative to say, "If this item is completed, we can give away a box of the hotel's secret barbecue for free." "This event has been going on for more than a week, and the most one has burst three balloons, which they have listed as impossible to complete.

Finally, there was no need to skip rope, Chen Anxiu broke his wrist and said, "You two go to plant the national flag, and leave it to me here." ”

Although there are a lot of national flags, I know a lot of tons, and there are Zhang Shinian helping by the side, so there is not much difficulty, as for Chen Anxiu's side, when the five nails in front of him are either not hit, or they are not broken, the waiter sighed quietly in his heart, sure enough, the handsome guy can keep it and appreciate it, and the others can't be expected too high.

Zhang Shinian was very confident in him, "I and Ton Ton still have seven or eight national flags over here, so hurry up over there." ”

Chen Anxiu raised his eyebrows proudly, "Don't worry, I'm definitely faster than the two of you." As soon as his words fell, the waiter next to him didn't react, so he listened to the bang, one nail, one balloon, twenty nails were popped, all twenty balloons were broken, and none was left.

Not only the waiters here, but even the parents and children who were playing games on the side were stunned, but soon there was applause, and some children jumped up and cheered, "Uncle, you are so amazing." ”

Chen Anxiu didn't know what Lu Dao was modest, and waved his hand to everyone frequently.

Zhang Shinian really had the urge to drag him home.

There is also the last item, skipping rope, shuttlecock kicking and the like must be excluded first, then there is only a small game of parent-child recognition, that is, one of the parents is blindfolded, only by being able to recognize their children and lovers by touching their hands. But the most annoying thing about this game is that you can't make a sound when you recognize it, and you have to show it by kissing it.

Kiss tons, he is willing, Zhang Shinian or forget it, Chen Anxiu blindfolded, and the waiter led him to a row of seven or eight children, he grabbed five little hands in a row, it seemed to be almost the same, fleshy, round, but they were all a little bit worse, when he touched the sixth, a little finger scratched twice in his palm, and he smiled and hugged the child and kissed him on the face. Tons also kissed him on the face, and there were other parents behind him.

It's Zhang Shinian's turn to be easier to recognize, he doesn't have to touch it at all, just get closer, you can feel it, ask him to pretend to admit the mistake to kiss other men, he would rather be with Zhang Shinian, he leaned up, and wanted to borrow a position to show it, but as soon as he got closer, he felt a warm thing sticking to his forehead, and there was a small gasping sound next to him, Chen Anxiu ripped off the long towel covering his eyes, and looked into Zhang Shinian's gentle and quiet eyes.

"Hell yes." This is the only word he can use to describe his mood at this time.

The final result, of course, was that they successfully got a box of barbecue, and they were satisfied with the rather large dolphin.

They delayed some time in the parent-child game, and when they went downstairs, Chen's father and Chen's mother had already eaten almost enough, and they may have been tossed by Guo Yuchen's side recently, so now seeing Chen Anxiu and Zhang Shinian walking together, Chen's mother has no strength to be angry anymore. On the contrary, when Guo Yuchen saw Zhang Shinian, he blurted out: "Cousin-in-law." ”

*

Life is such a twist and turn, Guo Yuchen's cousin-in-law shouted that Chen Anxiu wanted to laugh, what a messy relationship. Guo Yuchen claimed to be Lu Biting's cousin, as for what cousin, he was not interested in knowing, but this was the second time he had heard the name Lu Biting.

"What do you want, Zhuangzhuang?" Lin Changning wiped his hair and came out of the bathroom.

"Uncle, have you finished taking a shower?"

Grandpa didn't find any disease in the hospital, that is, the person is old, the organs are not very good, and there is a little high blood lipids, after he can get out of bed, he is not willing to stay in the hospital, the family took him back, the second uncle's abalone and sea cucumber pond are inseparable from people, and the children are busy with their own careers outside, Chen's mother and Chen's father took the two old people to their homes to take care of themselves, they are more convenient to go down the mountain than Linjia Island, if there is a little accident, it is also more convenient to go to the hospital.

The two old men lived in Chen Anxiu and Chen Tianyu's room, Chen Anxiu and Ton Ton completely moved to the building materials store, and there was no other room at home, so Lin Changning followed him to live here.

After getting along for a few days, Chen Anxiu found that his brother-in-law was very afraid of mosquito bites, and he couldn't get off for a long time when he was bitten by mosquitoes on his hands, so every night before going to bed, he sprayed some mosquito medicine in the house, and the time was almost up.

"Uncle, do you still feel mosquitoes when you sleep these two days?"

"No, I slept until dawn." I don't know what Lu Dao is for, this child sleeps next to him, always giving him an indescribable feeling of peace of mind, as if there is a place that has been missing for a long time and has been filled back, but this opposite is quite inexplicable, "In the past, when your mother was not married, every day before going to bed, she would burn wormwood in the house, the smoke was very loud, and the house was very stuffy when she went to sleep. I didn't want to sleep because of the heat, so she fanned me on the side. ”

Chen Anxiu has always felt that his brother-in-law is the kind of person who is indifferent, but every time he talks about his family, it is different, and the relationship between him and his mother is really good.

"Uncle, come back more often when you have time. My grandma and my mom miss you a lot. ”

Lin Changning nodded, and urged him to say, "Tons and tons are almost washed, you hurry up and take a bath, didn't you say that you would get up early tomorrow morning and go up the mountain to pick peaches?" ”

"Okay, then I'll go." Chen Anxiu grabbed the change of clothes on the bed and went out.

When he came back from taking a shower, Lin Changning helped him dry his hair, and he arched under the blanket to get ready to sleep. At this time, I heard Chen Anxiu yelling in the bathroom, "Tons, help me get a bath towel." ”

Lin Changning pressed Tonton's shoulder and said with a smile, "Tonton sleeps, I'll send it to your father." ”

Chen Anxiu stretched out his right arm from the bathroom, "Uncle, why are you?" ”

"Tons of tons have already gone to bed." Lin Changning smiled and handed over the bath towel, and when he touched the petal-shaped birthmark on the inside of Chen Anxiu's right arm, his eyes trembled suddenly, and he raised his head in shock, "Strong?" Tons of tons are ......"

Chen Anxiu smiled bitterly, "I thought my mother told you, Ton Ton is indeed ...... I was born. "It's not a secret on Grandma's side, he feels that Grandma and Grandpa both know the truth." Uncle, can't you accept it? "Why is his face so blue and white.

"Zhuangzhuang, what day is your birthday, lunar calendar." Lin Changning grabbed his arm and asked a little eagerly.

"Lunar one? The day before the frost fell, hey, uncle, it's so late, what are you going to do? ”

Lin Changning stumbled home, his mind was blank, he didn't have any thoughts, he only had one belief, he wanted to know whether the child was dead or alive. Even if they can't recognize each other in this life, it is enough for him to know that the child is still living well in this world.
