"Very good family, Xiaoxi, what happened later?"

In the warm hall, Huang Huang asked Xu Xi curiously. Xu Xi's speech is not dexterous, he just recounts his childhood in detail. But it is such an ordinary life that makes Huang Huang yearn for it even more.

Because his childhood was completely different.

"The rest of the story... Alas..."

Xu Xi sighed and thought, maybe it was because of the things behind him that changed his life.

Summer vacation is hot, but for third-graders, no amount of high temperatures can stop the enthusiasm for the holidays.

Xu Lei and Xu Xi finished all their summer vacation homework early. This way you can have fun for the rest of the summer vacation.

For adults, on such a hot day, everyone will choose to nest in a cool, air-conditioned room. But children are different.

Xu Kai is not only great at studying, but also very good at playing in his spare time. In this hot summer vacation, he took Xu Xi to run around in the poor streets and alleys of City A.

Xu Xi's nature is quiet, but he can't stop his brother from being active, and wherever his brother goes crazy, he follows. They catch frogs, catch dragonflies, play with tiles, and bounce glass balls. Even Xu Xi was having a lot of fun.

They always go home sweaty and disgraced, get scolded by their mothers together, and then go to the shower with a smile.

The two-month summer vacation is simply fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, there are only two days left to start school.

Xu Xi became a little stunned, after all, for a child, it is the most important thing to have a good time during the summer vacation. Now that the summer vacation is coming to an end, I am always a little reluctant in my heart.

Xu Kai didn't care very much, after all, his studies were very good, and he could go smoothly even in school. This morning, as usual, he dragged Xu Xi to the street to play after eating in the morning.

Xu Xi's house is in the eastern district of City A, where there are many ordinary houses and bungalows, and there is a moat not far from his house. There is a highway next to this river, and this summer, the brothers have been playing by this river.

Today, Xu Kai took Xu Xi to the river to play as usual.

It was a rare good weather at nine o'clock in the morning, when the sun was covered by thick clouds and a cool breeze was blowing by the river.

Xu Kai stretched his body, and his handsome face had a reassuring smile. "Where are you going?"

Xu Xi was stunned by the side, his brother was a lot taller than himself, he was tall and strong, not only did he study so well, but he also played very well.

"I really want to be a person like my brother!" Xu Xi did not answer Xu Lei's question, but said with great emotion.

"Oh?" Xu Kai said in surprise, "What did the little brother say?"

The moat is flanked by a large green meadow lined with rows of willow trees. The catkins were blown up by the breeze, and Xu Lei sat down on the grass under the willow trees, looking at the rippling river.

Xu Xi will never forget this picture, he sat next to his brother, watching his brother's expression looking into the distance.

Xu Lei seemed to be thinking about something, and he never spoke, which is not quite like his usual brother.

The two of them sat by the river speechlessly.

"Actually, I envy you even more, brother!" I don't know how long it took, Xu Lei suddenly said.

Xu Xi was stunned, she didn't expect her brother to say this.

"What do I have to envy?" Xu Xi said. He knows that he is not as good as his brother, no matter what aspect, learning, popularity, popularity...

"Alas..." Xu Lei shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly. "Forget it, how did I remember to tell you this. ”

"Brother!" Xu Xi said dissatisfiedly. "Tell me about it. ”

"Alas... How to say it. Xu Lei sighed. "I always think that Mom and Dad like you more, every time there is something delicious they will always give you to eat first, your final grades are so bad, they don't even say anything about you..."

"But..."

Xu Lei patted Xu Xi's little head and motioned for him to be quiet

"Also, on our birthday, they gave you such a fun doll, but what I gave me was just a tool, as if I didn't like toys, cut..."

Xu Lei's little mouth pursed.

"Brother also likes Lightyear Bass!" Xu Xi scratched his head, as if he was making some important decision, "Well, since my brother likes it, I... I'll give it to you!"

Xu Xi said, her little face turned red. One can imagine how important Buzz Lightyear is to him.

"Are you really willing to give it to me?" Xu Lei raised his eyebrows and looked at his younger brother and said with interest. "If you give it to me, you won't be able to play!"

"What, can't you give it to you?" Xu Xi looked at his brother, not knowing what he meant by this, did he say that on purpose, just for my Buzz Lightyear?

"Poof... Hahaha. Xu Lei laughed a little naughtily.

"Silly brother, tease you! I know you like that Buzz Lightyear, how could I rob you of something you love? It's just a little whining! Don't worry, my brother doesn't want it!"

"But..."Xu Xi wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to express it. However, he secretly made up his mind that when he went back today, he would definitely give Buzz Lightyear to his brother!

…

"That's... Did you give him that doll later?" Hearing this, Huang Huang couldn't help but ask.

Xu Xi smiled bitterly and shook his head. If you could do it all over again... I would have made this decision sooner, maybe then it wouldn't... No...

…

The sun showed its head, and Xu Lei stood up. "Let's go, silly brother, let's go catch frogs. ”

The two children walked to the river, took off their shoes and rolled up their trouser legs.

"Do you want to go down the river again?" Xu Xi turned his head and asked Xu Lei behind him.

"Of course!" Saying that, Xu Lei coldly pushed Xu Xi into the river, and Xu Xi panicked all of a sudden, grabbed his hands wildly, and directly dragged Xu Lei into the ditch.

The brothers are now fine, and they have become soup chickens. Fortunately, the river is shallow, otherwise it would have taken a lot of trouble for both of them to come up.

"Brother, you're really!" Xu Xi complained, taking off her wet clothes and spreading them on the grass.

"Since you're out to play, you have to have fun!" Xu Lei shook off his wet hair and said indifferently.

Xu Xi was lying on the grass with his back facing the sky, the sky was very blue and blue, he turned his head sideways to look at his brother, Xu Lei sat in front of him with his hands and knees, looking into the distance.

"How can I become a person like my brother?!" Xu Xi said softly as he looked at the blue sky.

"Huh, will it be me?" Xu Lei shook his head, patted Xu Xi's thigh, and said with a smile: "What's so good about being a person like my brother?"

"My brother is so good, of course it's good to be a person like my brother, alas... Why can't I do it?" Xu Xi said.

"Do you want to catch up with your brother? Then you have to come on!" Xu Kai said.

"Hmm...," Xu Xi said, but he didn't seem to have much confidence.

"Oh, let's stop talking about this, let's go... Let's go catch frogs!"

"But... The clothes haven't dried yet!"

"Alas, where are there so many things, come on!"

Xu Lei dragged Xu Xi and walked deep into the grass by the river.

The two children were laughing, making noise, and playing. The time of youth is the most beautiful time that we can never go back to.

In a blink of an eye, it was noon, and the brothers' stomachs were already growling, and Xu Lei was pulling Xu Xi's clothes and walking on the highway by the moat.

"Alas, brother, hurry up, go back late, Dad should be angry and scolding again!"

"Got it. Xu Xi picked up Xu Lei as he spoke, and walked side by side with him on the side of the road.

"Let's pull over and walk, didn't my mother say that you must walk on the side when you walk on the road, otherwise it will be very dangerous!"

"Hmm... Got it!"

"That's right!" Xu Lei said as he walked, "Also, you are my brother, there is no need to always walk behind me, and you are not my follower." ”

"Where?" Xu Xi said unconvinced.

"Alas... Brother, in fact, Dad is right, you can't always be behind me, you are yourself, you have to have your own life, not become a vassal of others. ”

"Hmm..."Xu Xi's voice was very small, as if he was talking to himself. If I'm following my brother, I don't have a life of my own.

It's just that Xu Xi didn't say this.

"You... Do you really understand?" Xu Lei turned his head to look at Xu Xi.

"I... I know..."

At that time, Xu Xi didn't understand, he just replied like a conditioned reflex. He thought that as long as he could live with his brother, it didn't matter if he didn't understand it.

It's just that he never had a chance to tell his brother again!

He hadn't finished his sentence yet, only felt his body fall violently to the lawn by the roadside. The world was spinning for a while, and Xu Xi didn't even know what was happening, but everything had changed.

A Dongfeng truck somehow suddenly rushed towards the two brothers who were walking on the side of the road. When Xu Lei turned his head to look at Xu Xi, he caught a glimpse of this sudden uninvited guest out of the corner of his eye.

He instinctively pushed the skinny Xu Xi to a safe place on the side of the road with all his might, and he himself ......

When Xu Xi got up from the grass in a panic, it was too late.

Xu Lei's body was scattered on the side of the road. And the vehicle that caused the accident actually stumbled away.

Xu Xi stared blankly at all this in front of him.

"Brother!" he shouted.

But no one answered his call anymore.

He didn't believe that his brother, who was talking and laughing with him a second ago, had turned into a pile of minced meat in front of him in just an instant.

Xu Xi fell to his knees on the side of the road.

Actually, I envy you even more, brother. Just now, my brother was smiling and saying this to himself.

"No... Brother..."Xu Xi muttered. His world changed completely from this moment on.
