Chapter 12

Erbao's residence was not very far from the place where he had been beaten just now, and after walking through the alley and along a path that had been trampled out for more than ten minutes, what appeared in front of Morning Star was a large garbage dump, connected by mountains of garbage, exuding a strange smell, and Erbao's residence was in a small tent set up under a garbage heap.

"Are you going to live here, your parents?" Morning Star resisted the urge to vomit, covered his nose, stopped at the entrance of the tent, and looked at the Erbao who was sorting out pots and pots when he went in, and really didn't want to go in.

"Big brother, our parents are long gone, and you have always taken care of me when I was a child. Come on! Come in and sit down" Erbao cleaned up a vacant lot, brought a broken mat and put it on the ground, let Morning Star sit over, and hurriedly ran out of the tent with the pot, lighting some flammable garbage and preparing to boil water. Chenxing has a lot of unbearable feelings in his heart, but he knows his own situation, if he is poor, he will be good alone, and if he is rich, he will help the world.

"I'm really not your eldest brother, my name is Morning Star, my parents are alive, Erbao, you recognize the wrong person."

"But you look exactly the same as my impression of the eldest brother!" Erbao carried a bucket and poured water into the pot, probably pulling the wound, and frowned in pain.

"Then how long has it been since you saw your big brother."

"Ten years!" Erbao walked into the tent and sat in front of Morning Star, looking at Morning Star's face, his head slowly drooped, and realized that the person in front of him was not his eldest brother, ten years later, his eldest brother didn't know what he looked like, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red when he thought of this.

"Do you live alone, and do you have any other relatives?" Morning Star is the youngest son in the family, with an older brother and sister, and his parents are there, and sometimes he will shout twice in his heart when he encounters a blow, "God is unfair", but he is much happier than Erbao. If he is lonely and unrelated from now on, how gloomy the world will become in his eyes, but what Morning Star sees in Erbao is kindness and sunshine.

In the following time, Erbao told what happened to him. Erbao is a native of Sichuan, and his parents died of serious illness when he was two years old, and he and his eldest brother depended on each other. When I was five years old, my eldest brother went to the field to farm, and when he went out to play, he was abducted and trafficked to Jiangnan by traffickers, and later the police cracked a human trafficking syndicate case, and found Erbao along the vine, and when he confirmed his identity and sent Erbao home, Erbao was already ten years old at that time. The village was demolished and rebuilt, many neighbors could not find or did not know, and finally heard the news of their eldest brother in a nail household, saying that their eldest brother found that Erbao was lost, and frantically searched all over the village, and then went to the town alone to find Erbao for half a month, and burned his house after coming back, and I heard that he later went to Tianhai City. Erbao was not adopted, so the townspeople arranged Erbao in the orphanage in the town, Erbao did not want to accept such a fate and arrangement, and escaped from the orphanage on a rainy night, tossing and turning to Tianhai. Because Erbao is a child laborer and no one dares to use it, and his household registration is also in his hometown, he is afraid that the government will send him back to the orphanage, so he has been picking up garbage for a living. Usually run around, but in the vast sea of people, it's been four years, and I still haven't found my brother, today I ran to the garbage dump not far from here to pick up things, and was caught and beaten by the two children who occupied the garbage dump over there and made a living by picking up garbage like him, and the next thing was to be rescued by the morning star.

"Puff, puff......" The water boiled, Erbao took out a new package of instant noodles in a broken bag, pulled a few cabbage leaves in another basin and threw them into the pot, and after a while, he came in with a bowl of hot boiled noodles.

"Brother, it's noon, I'm hungry, give! Eat!. Erbao's eyes flashed with little stars, looking at the morning star. Morning Star looked a little stupid, subconsciously took the bowl of noodles with both hands, picked up the chopsticks handed over by Erbao, picked them up and took a bite.

Erbao took the coat that Morning Star was afraid of getting dirty just now from Morning Star's arms, took out a slightly torn but clean towel next to him, and wiped the two dirty handprints on the coat little by little with water.

The taste of noodles is very light, very pure, maybe really hungry, maybe it is some other reason, Morning Star feels that this is the best bowl of boiled noodles he has ever eaten, looking at his clothes in front of him, and looking up from time to time to glance at his two treasures, that innocent and happy smile is like this in this dilapidated tent by the garbage dump, forever imprinted in Morning Star's heart, Morning Star also secretly made a decision in his heart that is related to the lives of the two of them.

"It's delicious! Erbao, thank you for inviting me to eat noodles. Although I am not your own brother, I recognize your brother today. As long as you are willing to call me big brother again, I will be your own brother from now on! Morning Star finished the noodles, drank the soup, gently placed the bowl beside him, and made a lifelong promise to Erbao.

"Big brother!" Erbao was stunned for a few seconds, and then threw himself into Morning Star's arms again, crying loudly.

"Hahaha, come to Erbao and don't cry, brother will take you to eat, but I saw you just peeking at me eating noodles and swallowing saliva." Morning Star resisted the urge to shed tears, and pulled Erbao out of the tent.

"From now on, the eldest brother will take care of you, and this tent will be burned." Morning Star is arrogant, ready to tear down the tent and burn it, determined not to let Erbao live the life he is now.

"Don't, you're really my brother, the house in my hometown was burned down by my brother, I've lived in this place for almost two years, keep it, maybe someone else will use it." Erbao looked at the tent in front of him that had sheltered him from the wind and rain for two years, and he couldn't bear it.

Morning Star didn't fight with Erbao, and directly took Erbao to the Sichuan restaurant near the 8 Days Hotel and ordered a table full of dishes, Morning Star occasionally ate two bites, most of the time he was sandwiching vegetables for Erbao, watching him gobble up.

"Come on! Eat more pot meat, see that you are a fourteen-year-old boy, look like a ten-year-old child, drink some soup, don't choke. ”

"Uh-huh, brother. You eat too. Erbao's mouth was full of chewing vegetables, and his words were very vague.

After the Sichuan restaurant came out, Morning Star took Erbao back to the hotel, adjusted the water temperature for Erbao, took a bath, and changed him into the clothes he brought. Erbao stood in front of the mirror with his wet hair, looked left and right, then turned around, and then ran around the room, full of curiosity about what he saw. Morningstar originally wanted to go out to visit the boss in the afternoon, but looking at Erbao running around in his own clothes after taking a shower, just like those who sang big operas in the village, the sleeves were long, and he had to be careful not to step on his trouser legs, his pure appearance, everything was so natural and harmonious, Morningstar decided to cancel the afternoon trip.

"Erbaolai, dry your hair, brother will take you shopping." Morning Star took out the hair dryer from the drawer, now that the weather is getting cooler, Erbao is afraid that he will catch a cold when he goes out like this.

"Go shopping, go shopping." Erbao rolled on the bed, and then obediently walked in front of Morning Star.

On the way to go shopping, Morningstar sent his suit to the dry cleaner for an emergency, and by the way, he gave Erbao a haircut, bought two autumn clothes and sneakers for Erbao in the commercial area, and bought some pajamas and daily necessities, and bought a few truck toys for Erbao in the toy store, and then the two of them made a Trojan horse, drank milk tea, and watched the fountain until it was dark before returning to the hotel.

When I went back to the hotel in the evening and passed by the front desk, the two waitresses at the front desk saw such a beautiful and delicate child, and thought it was a girl. When Morning Star asked them for more toiletries, the two chatted with Erbao affectionately, Erbao took a bite and a young lady teased the two ushers, Morning Star looked at this scene in his heart, and sighed in his heart, this can't be a scumbag like himself, it is really the younger brother he recognizes.

"What is 1+1?" After Morningstar returned to the hotel, he thought about Erbao's education. It's not realistic for him to go to school now, he doesn't have any connections in Tianhai City, and he doesn't have that much ability financially now, he is a bachelor's degree graduate, and it's good to teach children at night, but you have to know where Erbao's cultural level is.

“2! Big brother, I went to elementary school in Jiangnan for a few years, and I know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide. Erbao obediently sat opposite Morning Star on the bed, and rolled his eyes as he listened to Morning Star's question.

"That's what 758 times 236 is equal to." Morning Star is a teacher at the beginning, and he must establish his own majesty.

"One seven gets seven, two seventy-four...... Erbao lowered his head and counted them one by one, but he didn't count them for a long time.

"No, it won't!"

"Big brother, that's how much is that?"

"178888" Morning Star looked at Erbao who was looking at him with admiration on his face, and felt a burst of satisfaction in his heart, and slowly put the mobile phone he was holding in his right hand behind him.

"By the way, Erbao, what's your big name."

"My parents in Jiangnan used to give me a name Fulong, but I don't like it, so I'll call it Erbao."

"If you go to school and work in the future, you can't call Erbao and make people laugh, big brother will give you a name. The life ahead of you is full of hardships, and the eldest brother hopes that you can have smooth sailing and a prosperous journey in the future. You just follow my surname, just call it Chen Wanli. This notebook is given to you. Morning Star took out his notebook, wrote these three big characters on it with a ballpoint pen, and handed the notebook to Erbao. Wrong! It was handed to Chen Wanli.

"Morning miles! Miles! Oh! I have a new name! Wanli held the notebook in his arms, stood up, and happily circled the morning star on the bed.
