Tsai Tsai hung up the phone of his second uncle Ma Xingsheng and came over for breakfast. The three adults looked at the child eating the sea, and their faces showed the same love and joy. Zhiyuan saw Gui Ying looking in a daze, so he brought out what he was most worried about.

"What about today...... How do you deal with it? Zhiyuan stared at Gui Ying.

"What's the matter?" Gui Ying and Tsai said in unison, and then the mother and son looked at each other and smiled.

"Such a big deal! You forgot! Zhiyuan frowned.

"Sizzle! Isn't it Xiaotang? Gui Ying was confused, whispered to Zhiyuan, and then scratched her unkempt hair and said, "Oh, did I say something I shouldn't have said last night!" Is it the one who wants to settle accounts with Xiaotang? ”

"What's the matter?" The old horse was curious.

"Bao Xiaotang is not ...... The man's wife sent a message to Xiaotang last night to meet and talk, Xiaotang was afraid to find Hyosung, and Hyosung had no idea to find Young-young! Dad, guess how Yingying promised others in the car yesterday - rest assured, I'll talk to her, I'll get it done, it's a piece of cake...... She's drunk and talking nonsense! You don't have half a dime to do it, you promise it randomly! What if this is going to be fought? The scholar was cautious, and Zhiyuan was angry.

"My mom is so violent! A modern version of Mu Guiying! Are you going to fight a scumbag or a scumbag wife? I can't beat him and collapse on him! Tsai Zai coaxed his body to perform comically, which made his grandfather and mother laugh.

"Tsk!" Zhiyuan's face darkened, and the boy stopped.

Gui Ying drooped her eyelids in a daze, and when Lao Ma saw this scene, he shook his fan to reassure: "Oh, in broad daylight, she can't kill anyone!" She wants to say go there and talk about you not going, set a new place or change the time again, find a public place, what can she do with a woman? "The old horse is calm.

"Dad, this has nothing to do with our dime, what are we wading in? If you talk about it, the other party will treat you as an enemy, you don't talk right, Xiaotang, and Xiaotang will blame you in turn! Ying, hurry up and call and say that you have an urgent matter at work, and this kind of thing will be less involved in the future! Zhiyuan faced his father-in-law, but he was talking about his wife, and the anger between his words weighed Gui Ying heavily.

Tsai Tsai lay on the table, looking up at the adult with dripping eyes, chewing the bun silently in his mouth.

"Xiaotang is my own sister-in-law, we have been together for so many years, and I have helped us take care of our children before...... Besides, her sister is really timid, how can you refuse when someone calls me? You can't think about others when you have something to do, and you can't see someone else when they have something! Gui Ying stared at the bun in Tsai Zai's hand and said.

"This kind of thing should have been done by the person concerned to the party, what are you coaxing? Are you someone's parent or someone's sister? If you want to negotiate, you should go to Hyosung! Bao Xiaoxing, my own sister, didn't go! You go? What should you do if you really can't talk about it? Zhiyuan huffed and clasped his hands to his chest.

The old horse looked at Gui Ying carefully and saw that there was no timidity on her face, only in contemplation. So the old man gave Gui Ying a boost: "You promise to retreat - hurt and angry!" The boat helps the water, the water helps the boat, and there are two friends in the city - it's not easy! Besides, Yingying, she is not an ordinary person! That posture to that station, maybe the person who is afraid is that woman! There are a few women who look like her, and their temperament is still violent! ”

"Old village chief, you're doing something!" Tsai Tsai stretched out his index finger and smiled evilly at his grandfather.

"Dad, ...... Don't we have to prevent ourselves from getting hurt? Zhiyuan disagreed with his father-in-law's position.

"Oh, it's weird, she's also a human, how can she come here? Is it too big to go to the police station? "Zhiyuan is raising the severity, and Lao Ma is simply decreasing. Tsai is not afraid, he is not afraid, he is afraid - the old man sighed in his heart for this rat-gut son-in-law in front of him.

"The location is up to us!" Gui Ying recalled the events of last night.

"Don't worry! I guess that woman also wants to make things clear! The old horse shook his fan, and he had a score in his heart.

"Don't worry, dear, I know what to do!" Gui Ying calmly put her hand on Zhiyuan's fist.

"Boy, your mother has had an idea since she was a child! Be bold! If you can't deal with such a little thing, how can you mix outside if you are afraid of wolves and tigers! People are in society, if you don't look for everything, everything will look for you! The hard ones don't work to the soft ones, the horizontal ones don't work to coax, there's always a way! After saying that, the old man walked away with a hookah and a cane!

Lao Ma seems to be saying this to Tsai - but it's not. Gui Ying heard the meaning of the words, leaned her head back in the chair and pretended to stretch, and looked at Zhiyuan's expression very cautiously. Zhiyuan stood still, of course he knew that this was meant for him. Whether he was cautious or timid, he was firm and confused. He hopes today's results prove him right.

Tsai Tsai watched this good scene, the boy may not understand, but the feeling is clear. Often, the feelings of bystanders towards the authorities are basically the same, or even the same. The arrival of grandpa shocked He Yiming to a certain extent, in the template of men and women, he has one more object to refer to, and he somewhat appreciates this male template. Tsai Tsai looked at his grandfather's back, and there was an indescribable strength in his heart.

Gui Ying got up and left the table, took out the style of the workplace, and called Xiaotang and Hyosung respectively. Understanding what Xiaotang meant was the first thing she had to do today. After changing her clothes, Gui Ying went out and went to Xiaotang's rental house, waiting for Hyosung to come over to discuss the matter.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Zhiyuan and Tsai Tsai were at the dinner table to study the free youth training organized by the government to participate in the summer. The father and son chose the art class and handicraft class for their sister, and the course of the boy should be the same as the one selected by the school, so that the two families can pick up and drop off easily, and the two brothers can get together and play together.

For most of the year before and after Yangyang's birth, Tsai Tsai has been living with Xuecheng. At that time, the four- and five-year-old Xuecheng was particularly sticky to the ten-year-old little brother, and chased after the boy every day. Tsai Tsai is also very proud, leading his little follower to chase the wind in the farmer's market after school. After all the winter and summer vacations, the two brothers often went back and forth, you came to my house for a week, and I went to your house for five days - this innocent friendship lasted until the end of the second year of junior high school.

"Then are you going to your aunt's house today?" Zhiyuan asked his son.

"I just heard my mother say that my aunt is coming, and I don't know if I want to go."

"You call your mom and ask her if she wants to go over."

After the call, Tsai Tsai said to his father, "My mother said...... Today, Aunt Hyosung shouldn't care about this, let me go to find Xuecheng by myself, and then asked me to help Xuecheng sign up. ”

"Then I'll teach you how to sign up, and then you can choose and sign up for Xuecheng and yourself after you learn it, okay?"

"yes, okay."

"Xuecheng doesn't have a phone, you call Grandpa Zhong directly, saying that you want to come over to find Xuecheng, and say hello to the adults before leaving."

"I know, I know!"

After the clever boy learned to sign up, he set off with his bag on his back. The two places are separated by six subway stations, and after leaving the subway station, Tsai Tsai quickly arrived at the farmers' market, and then walked to Xuechengjia's shop.

A week ago, Zhong Xuecheng's final exams for their elementary school had ended. Yesterday afternoon, the head teacher of Xuecheng informed parents and students in the WeChat group to pick up the report card today. At eight o'clock in the morning, Zhong Neng took his grandson to school to get his report card, and just arrived at home to receive a call from his brother, and the children were so excited that their eyebrows danced.

Zhong Li had just gotten up, and when he saw his son so happy, he thought that his grades were good. He called Xuecheng to look at the transcript, and Zhong Li took the slender transcript and stared at it for a moment - 83 in Chinese, 70 in mathematics, and 66 in English, ranking 44th in the class in terms of total scores. Zhong Li, who used to be dominant in the workplace, held the report card and glanced at his son jumping around the shop ignorantly, and his heart was angry. He had never been out of the top ten when he was in school, and now he has a son who is stupid and stupid, and he shakes his head and smacks in his mouth.

The eight-year-old scholar was looking forward to his brother's arrival with high interest, but he noticed his father's fierce color. Zhong Li stepped on the chair with his left foot, threw away the cigarette in his hand with his left hand, and gently called for Xuecheng. After Xuecheng stood firm, he took the report card and reprimanded his son fiercely. This scene happened to be seen by Tsai Tsai, who didn't know how to advance or retreat, standing there like a fool, not daring to move.

Zhong Li saw that he was sluggish, and his words were ineffective, so he leaned forward and slapped him twice. Xuecheng covered his face, stared at Zhong Li viciously with his eyes, did not speak or cry, Zhong Li saw his son glaring at him angrily, he was angry, and stood up directly and kicked Xuecheng down. Xuecheng, who fell to the ground, covered his face and held his head, but still didn't cry, and the eyes of the eight-year-old child were filled with hatred. Zhong Li saw that Xuecheng was not like a child, he was slightly stunned, and continued to kick his ass with his foot - seven or eight kicks hard, unloaded his anger, and then turned around and went to the bedroom upstairs.

The moment Zhong Li turned around, he met Tsai Tsai's eyes - like a landslide, Tsai Tsai trembled! He Yiming, who grew up in a greenhouse, saw this scene, and was so frightened that he was apnea, his shoulders were high, and his whole body was tense, but fortunately, Zhong Li just glanced at him, and then went up to the second floor.

Tsai didn't dare to breathe, stood there stunned for a long time, and then strode to the shop and picked up the school on the ground. Xuecheng, whose eyes were red, was so excited that he cried bitterly when he saw his brother coming. Tsai squatted on the ground, holding his learned arms with both hands, and biting his lip with red eyes.

The more I cried, the more I gasped, and I couldn't breathe. Zhong Neng, who came back from grocery shopping, saw this scene and guessed what was happening. He sat on the chair and held Xuecheng in his arms, Xuecheng leaned on his grandfather's shoulder, and began to cry like a child.

"Boy, are you not going to school today because you are on summer vacation?"

"Hmm." Unable to speak, he squatted on the ground, holding his left hand in his right hand.

"Then you will take Xuecheng to your house later, and let the baby live in your house for a few days, okay?" Zhong Neng asked for success.

"Well, no problem. Belch...... I need his ID card, there is free training, and my mom said to sign up for a piece of learning. ”

"I'll get it for you later."

"Uh...... Grandpa Zhong...... Why? Tsai Tsai pointed at Xuecheng with sad eyes.

"Humph! Who knows! Zhong Neng lowered his head, his eyes cloudy.

When Xuecheng cried and gasped more slowly, Zhong Neng put Xuecheng on the chair and sat down. I went to find the ID card of the student, and after taking a photo of the ID card, I returned the ID card. Zhong Neng packed up the daily necessities such as clothes, socks, toys, toothbrushes, and water cups, and then packed a big bag and handed it to Tsai Tsai. The old man sent the two children to the subway entrance, and saw that Tsai Tsai took Xuecheng's hand and entered the subway.

On the subway, the little brothers were silent, wiping their tears from time to time, and the boy kept handing toilet paper. The little red face was childless and innocent, and the boy looked down on his younger brother, a young man who was about to become an adult, sad and confused in his heart.

In the past, when he lived in the farmer's market, Uncle Zhong went out to work every morning in a suit and leather shoes, and came back in the evening in a gentle manner. Tsai Tsai got along with the Zhong family during that time, not like a family, but also warm and harmonious, grandfather, aunt and sister treated him as a relative, and he also treated him as a younger brother when he became a student.

At that time, Uncle Zhong didn't care about him but was not bored, not close but not estranged, and occasionally joked and joked, Uncle Zhong still had a smiling face at that time. But today's scene-He Yiming is afraid that it will be unforgettable for life! At this moment, he was still flustered in his mind, circulating the picture of Zhong Li's ruthless feet over and over again. Recalling how he spoke to his parents on weekdays, He Yiming felt that he was much happier than the school in front of him.

It is true that not all parents in this world are good. He Yiming recalled that in the market of Xuechengjia, there was a boy of the same age as Tsai Tsai named Zhang Tusheng, and at that time, Tsai Tsai often saw his parents scolding him and beating him on the street, never caring about the dignity of that Zhang Tusheng; Ai Meiyun in their class had never seen her mother, saying that her mother had run away with someone and didn't want her anymore; Bai Shiqiu, a junior high school classmate, had never met his father, and his classmates privately rumored that he was an illegitimate child; There is also Dai Aoxin, a classmate from elementary school, who heard that he was hospitalized by his father when he was in the fourth grade......

It's not better than not knowing, it's more frightening. He Yiming took a deep breath and stroked his younger brother's shoulder, as if he had grown a lot in an instant.

Zhong Neng sent the child away and sat on the platform at the entrance of the subway station by himself, feeling sad.

His son Zhong Li was so arrogant in his early years, because his son's status in Zhongjiawan was higher than that of the village chief. Since his son lost his job, he has changed step by step, and now he looks like this, how can Zhong Neng stand it. The old man didn't dare to say that his son was the most ruthless in the family, and thanks to his daughter-in-law's generosity, he didn't have the idea of divorce. Now that Meimei is older, she is going to go to school far away, but she has only worked hard to complete her studies, and from the time he was born to the present, Zhong Li has hardly given him a good look.

Zhong Neng was helpless, so he called Lao Ma and told Lao Ma that the child had gone to Yingying's house, and asked Lao Ma to take care of Xuecheng more, and mentioned a few words about Xuecheng being beaten. In this thriving place where people come and go, Lao Ma has almost become the only person Zhong Neng can trust!

After making the call, Zhong Neng dragged his sad body and went home to cook. He believed in his son, and he felt that one day Zhong Li would get up, and he would have the same heart as before. The days will be fine - the old man silently repeated this phrase along the way.
