Xia Zhe, who returned to his daily life, began to live a carefree life of sleeping until he woke up naturally in the morning and sleeping naturally at night. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and I don't know where Aunt Susan got so much energy during this time, she actually introduced him to a partner twice in three days, just like she swore not to give up if she didn't marry him.

If Aunt Susan's increase in the frequency of blind dates is still within his cognition, then Uncle Jim, who has fundamentally changed a person, is really incomprehensible to Xia Zhe.

You know, just a few days ago, the uncle was still the middle-aged old man who was sloppy in clothes, full of stubble, liked to drink heavily, and bragged and fart with the neighborhood leaders when he had nothing to do. However, now he not only changed into new clothes, but also shaved his own chin that he was proud of on many occasions, and even rarely drank alcohol.

In short, the current Uncle Jim gives Xia Zhe the feeling that he is obscene but a little fresh.

Today, Xia Zhe, who had just escaped from the blind date again, was stopped by Uncle Jim, who had a strange painting style.

"Xia Zhe, let's continue today. ”

Xia Zhe, whose face was full of black lines, was like a deflated ball after hearing this: "Come on, what do you want to do, do you want to rebel against your aunt's family tyranny?"

"No nonsense, see you at the old place. ”

Seeing Uncle Jim, who had completely changed a person, was resolute, Xia Zhe, who was helpless, had no choice but to follow.

……

A sunny afternoon passed like this, but in the woods not far from the town, a panting Uncle Jim was resting against a tree, and after a short adjustment of his breathing, he began to practice the technique that Xia Zhe had taught him: push-ups.

Xia Zhe, who was full of impatience, held a small tree stick and stood straight beside Uncle Jim, pretending to be a devil instructor. Of course, this is also what the uncle asks, and it can't be done if you don't do it.

Running, push-ups, sit-ups, these seemingly simple movements, but in the hands of Jim, who is middle-aged, is very strange, but after a whole afternoon of boring exercises, Xia Zhe, who was guiding on the side, was still admired, and looking at the sweaty uncle, he couldn't help but think of himself who practiced a few years ago.

Was you the same back then?

At the same time, Xia Zhe was also extremely puzzled at the moment, what was the reason for the abnormality of the uncle and aunt during this time. Do they plan to let themselves settle down and start a business and wander the world?

"That's unrealistic, isn't it?"

Xia Zhe shouted unconsciously, alarming Uncle Jim, who was propping up, he stood up and clapped his hands and asked, "What is unrealistic? Does it mean my progress? I also feel that my body is getting stronger and stronger." As he spoke, he also showed Xia Zhe his thick arms.

"What the hell are you doing, what do you want me to do?" Xia Zhe, who couldn't hold back, finally asked his doubts loudly.

No matter how long his reflex arc is, the abnormality of his uncle and aunt during this period of time can make Xia Zhe react slightly.

Whether it is the aunt's blind date meeting every once in a while, or the uncle's change of painting style and inspirational exercise to exercise, these weird things themselves reveal a very lame conspiracy.

The panting Uncle Jim looked at Xia Zhe straight for a while. Perhaps because he felt that there was no need to hide it, the uncle's eyes gradually changed to an extremely determined gaze. Because he knew that there would be no retreat after they made a decision.

"Follow me! I have something to tell you with your aunt. ”

Looking at the back of Uncle Jim who was striding forward, Xia Zhe had to follow mechanically, he was already affected by his resolute tone.

When Aunt Susan, who was cooking dinner in the kitchen, saw that they had come back early, she realized something and sped up her work, "You're back, Jim, you go wash up first, dinner will be ready soon." With that, there was silence.

However, Xia Zhe has never sat at the table so awkwardly as today, because Aunt Susan seems to have endless words every time she sees Xia Zhe.

The long waiting time passed. When the three of them began to sit together silently, eating Aunt Susan's dinner prepared more carefully than usual, Uncle Jim took out the Nord spirits he had been storing in the old boots tavern, this bottle of wine Xia Zhe knew, but he had never seen the uncle drink it, only when the uncle was really hungry, he would sneak to the old boots, just to open the cork of the wine bottle and smell it, the obscene appearance Xia Zhe still remembers it vividly.

Watching the uncle gulp down the Nord spirits that took a lot of effort to get, he didn't say a word, and the aunt sitting on the left side of the uncle didn't add wine to the uncle as usual. I had never seen such a harmonious scene, which made Xia Zhe lose his appetite for eating at all.

Probably seeing that dinner was about to end, Uncle Jim finally put down his wine glass and asked in a deep tone, "Xia Zhe, how long have you been in our house?"

"It's been four years. Xia Zhe returned uncertainly.

"It's three years and eleven months!"

Xia Zhe scratched his cheeks, "I have paid enough for food in the past few years." ”

"On the other hand, with your little net worth, it is not enough to sell you. Aunt Susan, who was choked by Xia Zhe, scolded with a smile, "Listen to your uncle." ”

"Don't interrupt, you kid. Jim glared at Xia Zhe with hatred. Then he looked for a feeling, and then said: "Xia Zhe, do you plan to live in this remote and backward small place like us for the rest of your life?" After this calamity, I thought about it for a long time and talked a lot with your aunt, although we understood that you would not stay with us forever when we took you in. But we're really reluctant to let you go... But your stage doesn't belong here after all, because of your youth, because of your strength, continuing to rely on this remote countryside will only ruin yourself. So I decided with your aunt that it was time for you to get out of the house... We don't have any other luxuries, as long as you protect yourself and have a chance to come back and see us two old fellows, then we'll be satisfied. ”

Xia Zhe finally understood the good intentions of the middle-aged couple, even if these behaviors seemed so naïve.

But understanding is understanding, but they don't understand Xia Zhe's thoughts at all, his laziness has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, as early as in the other world, he was the kind of unmotivated dead house, instinctive resistance and fear of the unknown world. So after arriving here, can you still expect him, who is completely unsupervised, to become a different version of the New Four Young Adults?

Xia Zhe felt it was necessary to communicate with his uncle and them: "Uncle, what you said is very reasonable, and I also understand your good intentions, although I have had those lofty ideals that do not look for boundaries before, but now I am completely past the age where I can continue to secondary two." Please don't let me go if possible, please. ”

Xia Zhe looked extremely yearning for eating and waiting for death, which made Jim, who was sitting opposite him, angry, "What do you mean by this? Bastard boy, even if it is a worm in a stinky ditch, it is trying to live." But what about you, every day you eat and sleep. No, get out of here!"

At this time, even Susan, who was very reluctant to let Xia Zhe go far away, felt that Xia Zhe was too much. For some reason, they can't have their own children, so Xiao Zhe's appearance is the greatest gift from God to her life, but Xia Zhe is good at everything, but he is too bald, no matter what he does, it is like the quenching furnace in the blacksmith's house next door, as long as he stops pulling the bellows under the quenching furnace for a while, the fire will be extinguished.

Of course, if Xiao Zhe really doesn't know anything and can't survive well in this world, then what does it matter if the two of them are raising him for the rest of his life. However, after this calamity, after knowing that Xiao Zhe eliminated the terrible calamity, she suddenly understood: the outside world belongs to him, and it is only because of her own obstacles that Xiao Zhe has become buried gold.

Does she not want her nephew to get ahead? The answer, of course, is yes. Of course, if he can marry a good wife and give birth to a few white and white fat boys for her to hug, it will be perfect.

"Xiao Zhe, go out and see the world, even if you go far, if you still want to find a warm home in the end, isn't there still here..."

"Ahh You adults have a lot, so let me go. Xia Zhe interrupted Aunt Susan's words and ran back to his cabin like crazy.

"Xiao Zhe..."

Looking at the otaku who didn't eat oil and salt and pretended to be good, Uncle Jim was directly angry and released cruel words to Xia Zhe's shadow: "Don't go, cut off food, increase rent, and start working now, you will come over at six o'clock tomorrow morning to knead the dough and heat the oven." Until you figure it out. ”

。 That night, thinking back to this unpleasant conversation, facing the pale red moonlight shining through the window, Xia Zhe had insomnia for the first time in so many years.
