When the three of them arrived home, Lao Lu was exhausted, and the two were not much better, just sitting at the door panting.

Relieved, Lao Lu got up and said, "I'll go wash first, get a stutter and then clean up this lion." Ah Zhen, Julia has a wound on her arm, you can help her deal with it. ”

According to Lao Lu's instructions, Yin Zhen picked up a bucket of fresh well water and cleaned the wound on Julia's right arm.

The wound was deep, and the scars from the lion's claws were so shocking that they were almost bone-barred, and Julia grinned in pain.

"Take your clothes off, it's so inconvenient." Yin Zhen said.

Julia didn't move, she was a little reluctant.

"Don't think about it so much." Yin Zhen glanced at her, "You wear that kind of skirt with no sleeves and no collar, what is this?" Pretending to be a lady shouldn't be at this time. ”

His tone was full of sarcasm, and Julia was provoked by him and simply stood up: "...... I went back to my room to change my clothes. ”

"You can't use one hand, I'll change it for you."

"I don't need you to ......"

"Don't call Lao Lu," Yin Zhen said, "He's half tired and half dead, so you can let him rest in the kitchen." Don't toss him running back and forth. ”

"I'm not going to ask Daddy for help, I can do it alone!" Julia glared at him.

"What can I do?" The man looked at her coldly, "It's inconvenient, and it will stain the clothes and sheets...... Why bother? It's not like I haven't seen what it's like in a woman. ”

Julia was so choked by him that she couldn't speak, so she followed him to the second floor without a sound.

In front of the mirror, Yin Zhen took off her coat and sweater one by one, his movements were very careful, he didn't let the clothes hang the wound, and finally, he took off the British-style crimson plaid shirt with torn sleeves, and only the bra was left inside.

Julia's face was red with embarrassment, but Yin Zhen didn't say a word, her face was expressionless. He turned around and opened the closet: "Which one do you want to wear?" ”

“…… The sky blue one will do. She lowered her eyes and whispered.

Like a dutiful manservant, Yin Zhen took the sky blue washed cotton shirt, put it on her without squinting, then carefully rolled the sleeve of the shirt through the wound, and finally put a coat on Julia.

When he went downstairs, Yin Zhen whispered to himself: "Isn't there a cloth?" ”

"What?" Julia was stunned.

He looked up, looked at her in confusion, and pointed to her chest: "Even if it's a belly pocket, it's not that small." If it weren't for the lack of fabric, how could that thing be so short? ”

Julia suddenly understood what it meant to be "stupid enough to cry", and she wanted to cry now, not for her injured arm.

Next, Yin Zhen brought another basin of water, and like a meticulous medical staff, he carefully cleaned Julia's wound with soap, and sprinkled disinfectant powder on the wound according to Julia's instructions. The powder was stained with the damage, like a knife cut, and Julia screamed in pain.

"Wrap it up?" Yin Zhen asked, holding a strip of white cloth.

"Now...... Not yet. Julia struggled, "The wound needs to be stitched up." ”

She held back the pain and instructed Yin Zhen to take the small metal box in the cabinet in the storage room.

"Inside, on the third floor, there are needles and gut." She gasped, "It's going to have to be stitched." ”

Yin Zhen had no choice, so he had to go to the kitchen to find Lao Lu. He said he wouldn't get stitches.

Lao Lu came over, looked down at Julia's wound, and shook his head: "You really have to come here." ”

"Won't you?" Yin Zhen was surprised, it was the first time he had heard that there was something that Lao Lu would not know.

"It's not that I can't, I can't do it." Lao Lu smiled bitterly and stretched out his right hand, "Look, I have a disability in this hand." ”

Yin Zhen then remembered that Lao Lu's right hand was missing two fingers, and in this way, he really couldn't complete the needlework.

"Yes...... But neither will I! Yin Zhen was embarrassed, "I've never taken a needle and thread." ”

"Just sew the broken parts together." Lao Lu comforted, "It's very simple. ”

Seeing that he was still hesitant, Julia had to plead, "You two hurry up, anyone can do it, you can't let the wound be left open like this." ”

Since Julia said so, Yin Zhen had to get up and follow Lao Lu's instructions to sterilize the large needle.

When everything was ready and his hands were cleaned, Yin Zhen put the needle on, and he held the needle with a hesitant expression.

"I'm afraid, it's like sewing clothes." Lao Lu pointed beside him, "Remember, start from the middle of the wound, sew it on both sides, tie the knot at the end of the thread, and sew it to the end." ”

Yin Zhen paused for a moment and finally started to move.

Julia stared at the needle in his hand without blinking, and when the needle passed through the muscle, she was in such pain that cold sweat came down!

Now Julia understood what a tragic mistake it was to have a novice who had never even buttoned it up to stitch up his wounds, and he couldn't even grasp the depth.

She was sweating on her forehead in pain, and she could only bite her lip for fear that she would cry out of one mouth.

Lao Lu comforted: "I'll cook, Julia, let's cook something delicious tonight and treat your arm." ”

"I'm not a child! Won't it hurt to make good food? Feed! Bastard! You're sewing arms! You're not in the sole! ”

"Who are you scolding bastards!"

Yin Zhen was scolded by her and her face turned blue! He just wanted to have a seizure, but Lao Lu reached out and pressed his shoulder.

"She's in pain." The old man whispered, "Just let her say a few words......

Yin Zhen suppressed the fire at this time, and then lowered his head and continued to sew it up.

Lao Lu shook his head and walked into the kitchen helplessly.

I don't know how long it took, Yin Zhen finally used the most clumsy method to stitch up the wound. Finally, he cut the needle and thread and examined the wound again: "It doesn't seem to be very well sewn." ”

What's more, "the sewing is not very good"?! It's so hideous that I can't bear to see it!

Julia looked painfully and sadly at the mess of sewing thread on her right arm, she had never seen anyone sew it like this!

"Thankfully, it didn't hurt my face." She was so angry that she was so angry, "What kind of bullshit technique are you, it's just disfiguring!" ”

Yin Zhenwo caught fire and threw the sewing kit: "If you sew it for you, you still pick and choose, you should let you leave your wound open!" ”

"It was meant to be!" Julia stared angrily at the dog-like stitch marks, "Daddy, even if he sews with his left hand, it's better than this!" ”

Their loud quarrel once again lured Lao Lu out of the kitchen.

He wiped his hands with a towel and sighed, "What's the matter?" As soon as I turned around, you two were arguing. ”

"Daddy, look at what he sewed!" Julia gritted her teeth and said, "Even the soles of her shoes aren't so ugly!" ”

Lao Lu probe took a closer look: "Huh? Doesn't that look like a sewn thing? Julia, Azhen is a newbie, and you can't be too demanding of a novice......"

Yin Zhen snorted beside him, "It's not on the face, even if it's on the face, no one will look at it." ”

"You still say!" Julia was so angry that she wanted to jump up and slap him!

"You two, stop and stop." Lao Lu waved his hand, "What about me now, when I die in a few years, the two of you will quarrel like this all day long?" ”

When he said this, he stunned both of them.

"Daddy, don't say that." Julia said in a hoarse voice, "How unlucky! ”

Lao Lu said indifferently: "People will always die." Your dad and I are also old people. I'm worried: Even if I die, listening to you arguing like this every day, maybe I'll be so anxious that I will come back to life. ”

Julia chuckled, hissing again.

Yin Zhen packed the medical kit, and he said lightly: "Lao Lu, don't worry, I won't quarrel with her." If Julia is too annoying, I'll move out. ”

When Julia heard this, she was angry: "Let me go now!" I'll have to get rid of you when I get to! ”

"If you tell me to go, I'll go?" Yin Zhen rolled his eyes, "Daddy is still here." ”

Lao Lu smiled: "Okay, let's get ready to eat." ”

That night, they ate lion meat, which was very hard, with too little fat, and a very rough taste, but it was not delicious at all. But everyone was very happy, this was the first time they had eaten lion meat, and besides, they had hunted it with their own hands, which was very meaningful.

The box of vodka stored at home, because of disinfecting Julia's wounds, Lao Lu opened a bottle, but Yin Zhen only took a sip and said that he couldn't stand it.

"It's so strong! How to drink this! ”

Lao Lu said with a smile: "Originally, I didn't drink it like this, I have to add ice cubes, this vodka is 90 degrees, and it is about to catch up with pure alcohol." You don't seem to drink much? ”

Yin Zhen shook his head: "Drinking is wrong, I usually don't touch the things in the cup." Unless ......"

"What?"

Yin Zhen stopped, and in the candlelight, he smiled and said, "I have a younger brother who usually likes to drink two cups, if he is here, I will also accompany him to drink a little." ”

Julia noticed from the side that the lines on her face softened when he talked about her brother.

"You and your brother have a good relationship?" She suddenly asked, "The one who said last time I almost went to bed?" ”

"Get on your fucking bed!" Yin Zhen finally learned Julia's foul language, "I told you everything, it's not like that!" ”

Julia shrugged, "Well, it's good anyway." ”

"Well, this one brother and I have a good relationship." He said and shook his head, "Forget about the rest, it's not enough to be angry!" ”

"Do you have many younger brothers?" Lao Lu asked.

"Anyway, there are not many people I call my brother, and there is a large row of people who call my brother."

Julia was a little surprised: "It's all born to a mother?" ”

Yin Zhen shook his head: "Just one is a fellow mother with me." But I kind of hate that kid. ”

Julia thought for a moment, "You're a lot younger, aren't you?" ”

"Well, I'm ten years younger."

"And I didn't want him originally, my parents were surprised, didn't they?"

"Uh...... Sort of. ”

"And I didn't talk to you before I was born, did I?"

Yin Zhen looked stunned: "Discuss with me?" Why do you want to discuss it with me? ”

"If I had discussed it in advance, communicated with you, and added this younger brother, you wouldn't have been so angry!" Julia put on a very understanding look, turned her head to Lao Lu and said, "Look! Dad, I've seen a lot of examples like this from my friends: Erbao was added to the house, Dabao was suddenly left out in the cold, there was a psychological gap and no good balance, and since then I have been jealous of Erbao, and some cry and make trouble and threaten to jump off the building......"

Lao Lu also nodded: "The age difference is too big, which does put pressure on the eldest child, and he has to worry about his younger brother finding a job and getting married in the future." ”

Yin Zhen was anxious: "What was left out in the cold?" What are you talking about? No! I wasn't in my ...... when I was a kid I grew up next to my mother! ”

Julia was surprised: "Why? You're not a girl, why do you give it to someone else to raise? That's even more no wonder! Since childhood, he has suffered from separation anxiety, and when he returned to his parents and was separated by his younger brother, such a big treasure hates the second treasure even more......"

"You don't talk nonsense." Yin Zhen glared at her, "All of the above reasons are wrong!" I just don't like my brother! ”

"Why don't you like it?"

"It's just annoying." Yin Zhen hated poking the hard lion meat with chopsticks, "When I was a child, when I was messing around, adults said, look at the ...... Look at your second brother, how presentable! When I was older, I said, look at it, my brother is watching in front of me, how unpresentable! I'm not good anyway. ”

Julia sneered, "Got it, you're a sandwich biscuit." ”

"What are sandwich biscuits?"

Julia was stunned: "That's it...... The upper and lower slices of biscuits have cream in them, haven't you eaten them? ”

Yin Zhen thought for a long time, and said, "Ah": "It's like Poria Cake?" ”

Julia nodded hurriedly: "Almost." ”

"Hmph, so what's caught in the middle is the key!" Yin Zhen said stupidly.

"And what about your other brother?" Lao Lu asked, "The one who is good with you, why didn't you bother him?" ”

Yin Zhen smiled slightly, he picked up the wine glass and took another sip.

"He's not like my brother. My biological mother died very early, that's the kind of ...... You know, children who pay attention to other people's eyes. Same with me. ”

Julia looked at him quietly, in the candlelight, the man's face was a little haggard, he was still smiling, maybe because of the glass of vodka just now, Yin Zhen's expression was slightly drunk, and his eyes were hazy.

"Watching my father's eyes grow up, depending on his mood. His joys and sorrows must be buried, and he may not be seen. He paused, his voice slightly hoarse, "That's why every time I see Thirteen pretending to be clever in front of people, I feel sad." It's like ...... It's like seeing myself. ”

Lao Lu was stunned: "Thirteen? Your brother's name is Thirteen? ”

"He's thirteen." Yin Zhen said.

Julia nodded: "I remember, you called him in your dream that time." I hear you. ”

Yin Zhen raised his head and looked at the flickering candlelight, and he said softly: "I don't know how they are now, whether they are still safe." ”

Lao Lu saw that he felt homesick, so he hurriedly poured some wine for Yin Zhen: "Ah Zhen, don't think about the bad tonight." Think of it this way: they must be better off than we are. ”

Yin Zhen laughed: "That's right. They must not have to eat sweet potato leaves and potatoes. But don't think that they are better off than me are in my father's presence. ”

Lao Lu hesitated for a moment before asking, "What kind of person is your father?" ”

Yin Zhen glanced at him, was silent for a moment, and then said: "It is the person who holds the power of life and death in his hands." I'm afraid of him. ”

"Huh? Are you afraid of your dad? Julia couldn't understand, "What is there to be afraid of her father?" ”

Yin Zhen smiled, the kind of snarky and mocking sneer that made it difficult to describe the taste.

"You can live less now, though." Julia persuaded, "Ah Zhen, you don't have to look at anyone anymore, your dad isn't here anyway." ”

Yin Zhen shook his head lightly: "I've been used to it for a long time, and after a long time, it has become like this." ”

"What has it become?"

"It's like they say, hard-hearted." When he said this, he sneered, "My younger brother, who is a fellow mother, says that I am a stone behind his back. Say I don't have a heart and liver, like a dead man. ”

Julia looked at him in amazement!

"What the hell!" She said indignantly, "How can anyone say that about their brother!" ”

"Well, he likes other brothers, there are those who are good to him, who are kind to him, who talk and laugh with him, and he thinks that is like his own brother. So I'm more like a stone in his eyes. ”

Lao Lu sighed softly.

"Actually, I'm not a stone either." Yin Zhen whispered, staring at the wine in the cup, "I can't do it if it becomes like this." Sometimes I feel so sad that I still can't cry. My chest hurt as if I had been cut by a knife, and the next day, I still stood up straight and went out to run errands, not to mention them, even I felt evil, and I didn't know where the tears went. ”

He was drunk, and Julia suddenly thought, otherwise she wouldn't have said this in front of people.

"That's why I envy you like that." Yin Zhen raised his head, and the corners of his mouth bent slightly, "Julia, you are not a man, you don't have to worry about the grand cause, and you don't have to carry the eyes of others, you can cry and laugh if you want to cry, how good it is, otherwise, it will be miserable to become like me." ”
