I don't know how long it took, Lin Shuxi was still leaning back on the chair, squinting his eyes, and the courtyard door was pushed open with a "squeak".

Lin's father and Lin's mother entered the house with their front and back feet.

"Ah Xi, why did you come back so early?" Mother Lin saw Lin Shuxi on the chair and asked.

"I climbed a mountain, I was tired, and I came back." Lin Shuxi got up, poured two glasses of water for the two, and handed them over to each of them, without mentioning Cheng Yan's matter.

"Ah Xi, tomorrow, let's take Xiaojing to dinner, and you can go too!" Father Lin spoke.

"It's just the four of us, and there are still others." Lin Shuxi asked.

"And the Cheng family's parents." Father Lin replied.

"So, you agreed?"

"Hungry or not? I'm going to cook. Father Lin didn't answer, Mother Lin asked, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Lin Shuxi didn't ask anymore, and went out of the house by himself, feeling a little bored and wanting to breathe.

Father Lin picked up the water and drank a few more sips.

……

"We know that you have always been very good to Xiaojing, but you should also be more able to understand how much we miss Xiaojing as biological parents, he has been with you for six years, he lost it when he was a child, I really thought about suicide, I couldn't sleep all night, and then I took sleeping pills, ate too much, and went to the hospital to lavage my stomach, and now my stomach is cut by a third, we have been looking for him for so many years, I knew that he was here a few days ago, and he is living very well, I am really very happy, and I am especially grateful to you for taking care of him so well, But I really want Xiaojing to come back, and we must be a thousand times better for him. ”

"Teacher Lin, we know that you have been an art teacher in junior high school before, and you were expelled because of Xiaojing, don't worry, we will compensate you, and we can help you ......"

"No, I was willing to do that for Xiaojing, and I didn't need any compensation."

"Please, let Xiaojing go back with us, okay?" Cheng's mother said while crying, and knelt on the ground with a "plop", "Please, okay?" ”

Lin Mu stepped forward with red eyes and wanted to help Song Wan up, "Hurry up, what are you doing?" ”

"If you don't agree, I'll keep kneeling." Song Wan spoke like a child.

"Song Wan, what is this for? We want children, but they are reluctant! Hurry up. Cheng's father couldn't stand it anymore, he didn't expect Cheng's mother to kneel down and say such a thing.

"You are Xiaojing's biological parents, when Lin Zhang picked up Xiaojing back, we didn't think about it, whether someone would come to him, but we didn't expect it to be so soon, we have always treated Xiaojing as a biological child, over the years, Lin Zhang lost his job, we had a hard time, but we had a happy life, Xiaojing is a pistachio, every time the two of us set up a stall and came back, tired, but Xiaojing and Axi were talking next to us, and we felt content, you want Xiaojing to go back now, we really don't want to do it from the bottom of our hearts." Mother Lin also sat on the ground and cried with Mother Cheng.

Both of them cried fiercely, they both liked the child, as mothers, they could feel each other's feelings, but one was reluctant and the other couldn't let go.

Father Cheng and Father Lin lit two cigarettes on the side of the glass window, and the clouds spit out fog and were speechless.

For a long time, none of the four of them said anything, but decided to let Cheng's father and mother meet Xiaojing tomorrow, and as for the rest, let's discuss it later!

……

Lin Shuxi was bored, walking aimlessly on the road, and unconsciously walked out of the alley.

In the summer, it was more than five o'clock in the afternoon, the weather was sultry, there were not many people on the street, they were all hiding at home blowing fans and air conditioners, and no one wanted to find their own guilt.

Lin Shuxi walked to the small square in front, and sure enough, there was still no one, Lin Shuxi sat on the bench under the tree, looked around, no one came, so he lay on his back, looked up at the sky, the clouds seemed to be moving, and he was going south.

"What are you doing here? Sunbathe? The voice was a little familiar, but he didn't know who it was, Lin Shuxi got up and turned his head to see Cheng Yan walking over with a Coke.

"What about you? Hanging out? Lin Shuxi asked back.

"yes, just wander around if it's okay." Cheng Yan handed a bottle of Coke to Lin Shuxi, who waved his hand and didn't answer.

Cheng Yan smiled lightly, put the other bottle on the chair, sat down, opened the can with one hand, and drank a few sips.

"Doesn't look like you're in a good mood?" Cheng Yan said.

"Are you in a good mood?" Lin Shuxi somehow, now he speaks with thorns.

"It's okay, it should be in a better mood than you." Cheng Yan was not annoyed and continued.

"Oh!" Lin Shuxi sighed softly and stopped talking.

"Why did you come to us?" Lin Shuxi asked knowingly.

That day, there was a car that I had never seen before at the mouth of the alley, and there were unknown guests at home, and Cheng Yan was sitting in the car, it was difficult for Lin Shuxi not to be connected, and the next day the Cheng family in Lin's father's mouth made Lin Shuxi confirm his guess.

"You want to hear it?" Cheng Yan finished drinking a can of Coke, raised his hand and threw it towards the trash can, and slammed it on the table next to him, but it still fell into the trash can when it bounced, Cheng Yan turned his head and smiled, "Then I said, you tell me why you are unhappy." ”

Cheng Yan didn't know why she had to know why she was unhappy, Cheng Yan thought it should be curiosity.

"I came with my parents, my brother is here, and we'll take him home." Cheng Yan said very calmly, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, "But I haven't seen him yet, my parents said they would have dinner together tomorrow." ”

Lin Shuxi listened to Cheng Yan's words and understood that he shouldn't know that Xiaojing was his younger brother, the person they were going to take home.

Lin Shuxi looked at Cheng Yan and was stunned and didn't speak.

"Are you listening? Why are you still distracted? Cheng Yan looked at Lin Shuxi's somewhat dull eyes, and shook his hand in front of her eyes dissatisfied.

"I hear you." Lin Shuxi replied.

"And then? Say yours! Cheng Yan said.

"I, nothing, Cheng Yan, will you like your brother?" Lin Shuxi asked.

"I haven't seen him yet, but he's my own brother, I should like it, I only saw him when I was a child, when he was still being held by adults, and then he lost, and then after a long time, I forgot what he looked like, but I always knew that I still had a younger brother, and I was still a little looking forward to seeing him, I don't know if he remembers me, I should not remember, I forgot what he looked like." Cheng Yan said a lot of it.

"It's okay if you don't remember, he still likes you." Lin Shuxi said.

"You know?" Cheng Yan asked.

"Yes, I know." Lin Shuxi said with a smile.

"Let's go, I'm going home for dinner." Lin Shuxi got up from his chair.

"Eat so early? It's not even six o'clock. Cheng Yan looked at the display on his phone.

"Our family has an early meal, goodbye." After Lin Shuxi finished speaking, he walked to the street where he was home.

Cheng Yan sat on the chair for a while, feeling bored, so he also got up and went back to the hotel, lying with his head facing the ceiling, and tomorrow he would have dinner with his younger brother, Cheng Yan found that he seemed to be a little nervous, but Lin Shuxi said that he would still like me, although there was no reason, but he believed it.

Lin Shuxi went home, the meal was just cooked, and Xiaojing ran out of the bedroom, "Sister, what are you doing?" ”

"Wandering around outside." Lin Shuxi replied.

"Oh, by the way, sister, Mom said to take us to dinner tomorrow to meet a relative." Xiao Jing smiled happily, sat down on the table, took the eggplant and put it in the bowl, closed the rice, and pulled it into his mouth.

"yes, got it." Lin Shuxi washed his hands, sat down too, and bowed his head to eat.

"This spicy tofu is quite delicious." Lin Shuxi ate a lot, not very hungry, but eat more, Lin's father and Lin's mother will be happier, after staying outside for nearly an hour, she figured it out, and now the saddest thing should be her parents, and she can't add to the chaos anymore.

"Sister, give me some, I can't reach it." Xiaojing sent the bowl to Lin Shuxi, and also wanted to eat spicy tofu.

"Okay." Lin Shuxi put a few pieces in Xiaojing's bowl, "Eat it with rice, otherwise it will be spicy." ”

Xiao Jing nodded, scooped the rice and tofu with a spoon and put it in his mouth, "It's delicious!" ”

Lin Mu finally smiled, "I will often make it for you after it is delicious, I was afraid that it would be too spicy before, and you would not be used to it." ”

The meal was okay, and after eating, Lin Shuxi went to the kitchen to brush the dishes, played with Xiaojing for a while, and then went back to his room.

Lin Shuxi raised a pot of cactus, which is now about the size of two fists, placed on the windowsill, and there was originally a smaller one, but it was kicked over by Xiaojing, planted on the ground, cracked a big crack in the middle, and slowly died.

Lin Shuxi thought that this cactus ball was going to be given to Xiao Jing, so that he could accompany him in the future.
