Chapter 12: Cousin
After the end of the piano competition that day, the results came out on the same day, Huaibao's piano shop won the victory, only Huaibao did not need to participate in the finals and directly entered the finals, so the next half a year is not to practice for the competition, the piano teacher recommended Huaibao to go directly to the third level.
After the third level exam, it was time for the New Year, 2006 seemed to be colder than the previous Spring Festival, this time for the New Year, Huaibao's family came to another guest, Huaibao's cousin, that is, Huaibao's aunt's son Xu Yinchuan.
Their family lives abroad, so they rarely come back, this time because of Aunt Huaibao's divorce from her foreign husband, so Xu Yinchuan also came back, and will go to school in China in the future.
In the days of the Chinese New Year, my aunt was busy looking for a relationship to give gifts, so Xu Yinchuan was temporarily left at Huaibao's house.
This is not the first time the two brothers have met, when Huaibao was born, the aunt brought back Xu Yinchuan, who had just turned one year old, and that was the first time they met.
On the first day he came to Huaibao's house, Xu Yinchuan stayed in his room and didn't want to come out, so Xuan Xuan had to send him the food to the room.
He was quite polite, and he knew how to say thank you, but he ate very little, and the family felt that this child was just a little recognized, and he was a little restrained when he first came here.
But only Huaibao knew that this person just hated his home, he saw Xu Yinchuan pour the food given by his mother into the trash can at the door, but he didn't say it, no one said it, just treat him as a recognizant.
On this day, Xu Yinchuan couldn't stay any longer, so he followed to the yard, and there was only Niannian alone in the yard stacking blocks.
He first glanced at Nian Nian's whole body, then looked at her favorite pair of pink leather shoes and snorted coldly, and sat down on the wooden chair.
When Nian Nian heard the voice, she thought that Huaibao, who had gone to the toilet, had returned, but she saw Xu Yinchuan sitting on the chair looking at her with disdain.
She didn't know what that expression meant, she just thought that this brother should want to play with her.
So she patted her little hands, looked at the pink dress she was wearing today, and couldn't bear to get the sand on her clothes, so she had to rub her hands together.
"Are you going to play on the swing? I can push you. ”
In order to show his friendliness, Nian Nian pointed to Huaibao's swing and looked at him at a loss and said.
“Are you kidding me? That's the stupid swing?” (Are you kidding me?) Just this broken swing? )
Nian Nian was blinded all of a sudden, which was difficult for her, she really couldn't understand a word, so she had to do what she thought.
She ran behind the swing, pulled the rope on the swing with her two little hands, and turned her head to look at Xu Yinchuan.
"Do you play?"
“Oh, come on !” (Oh, come on.) )
Nian Nian still didn't understand, but obviously this brother didn't want to play on the swing, and she didn't speak, so she had to reach out and scratch her brow. Then he walked back to his original position and continued to crouch down and play with the blocks.
Xu Yinchuan saw that she ignored herself, and looked like a little arrogant, but he looked at the building blocks on the ground with some want to join, he was really tired of playing with these things, but now it was too boring, and the seven-year-old child naturally wanted to have children to play with, but he felt that he had come back from abroad, and Niannian and Huaibao were younger than him, so he felt that they were not worthy of playing with him.
About ten minutes later, Huai Bao finally came back, he was embarrassed to buckle his little head, just a little upset, and then he went to the toilet with the tablet on the sofa, usually not allowed by his mother to play with the computer, so he secretly played in the toilet for a while today, and was finally caught by his mother.
Seeing Huai Bao come out, Xu Yinchuan immediately adjusted his expression, hid the previous little desire again, and sat there with a proud and disdainful expression.
He thought that Huaibao would also come to talk to him, but Huaibao didn't even look at him when he came out of the house, and ran to Niannian.
This made Yinchuan a little angry, like a little girl, he actually wanted to play along, but he also needed to be invited, so he found some topics on his own.
“It's childish. How old are you still playing with building blocks.” (It's naïve, how old are you still playing with blocks.) )
Unexpectedly, Huai Bao still ignored him, Nian Nian looked up at him, because he still didn't understand what he was saying and lowered his head a little shyly.
"What is he talking about?"
She had to ask Huaibao in a low voice, but Huaibao naturally didn't understand. He just shook his head, his chubby body was tired of squatting, so he had to sit down, but he still ignored Xu Yinchuan's thoughts.
“Why don't you talk to me? Little fatty 。 (Why don't you answer me, little fat man.) )
“Shut Up !” (Shut up.) )
The audience was shocked.
Huai Bao didn't reply, so he said a word in English, which not only surprised Xu Yinchuan, but even Nian Nian was frightened, why did Huai Bao say such a thing.
And the person concerned just fiddled with the building blocks in his hand, as if he didn't say what he said just now, and it had nothing to do with him.
Later, Xu Yinchuan felt that he had been insulted, so he said nothing to Huaibao, but Huaibao only gave him a sentence of shut up.
Speaking of which, he would say this, in fact, he didn't understand what Xu Yinchuan was telling him at all, but the last time he watched a cartoon at home, the characters in it said this, and he remembered it, and since then, every time Xu Yinchuan comes to annoy him, he only says one sentence shut up.
After the New Year, Xu Yinchuan was picked up by his aunt, and in the next few days, Xuan Xuan was also confused, and finally Xu Yinchuan was willing to go downstairs to play, and his son seemed to have learned to speak English, but the result was always ridiculous.
"Where's the remote?"
"Shut up!"
"Can you take it and wipe the corners of your mouth? I still have breadcrumbs, do you want to keep them for tomorrow? ”
"Shut up!"
"Your mother told you to go to the little girl's house next door......"
"Shut up!"
"I ......"
"Shut up."
These conversations have to be staged several times a day, at first she also taught Huai Bao a few times, and later she found out that Huai Bao herself didn't know what the sentence shut up meant, and this Xu Yinchuan child was scolded several times a day, but he still liked to talk to Huai Bao, and sometimes he would laugh secretly, Xuan Xuan felt that this was also a way to get along, so she went with them.
On the day Xu Yinchuan left, Xuan Xuan and her aunt were talking outside, Xu Yinchuan dragged a small box down, and when he passed by the living room, he saw Huaibao sitting on the sofa watching TV, he walked over and stood in front of Huaibao.
“You must be saying shut up again 。” (You're definitely going to have to shut up again.) )
I thought Huaibao would say it again, but unfortunately, Xu Yinchuan guessed wrong, Huaibao not only didn't say it, but took out a few candies from behind him and handed them to him.
Xu Yinchuan was very surprised, took the sugar given by Huaibao and put it in his hand, it was his favorite sugar abroad, and it was also the sugar that Huaibao got from Xia Yecheng, and he was not willing to eat it himself.
Later, Xu Yinchuan also asked Huaibao.
"Why did you give me candy that time, and it's my favorite candy."
"I'll be your first and last time in the future, and if I know you've been annoying me a lot later, and I'm not going to give you candy, I'll probably give you a slap in the face."
“……”
In the end, Huaibao was also called out by his mother, and his aunt came over and kissed the chubby Huaibao, and then left with Xu Yinchuan.
When he was in the car, Yi Yao patted his son on the shoulder.
"Do you like my brother?"
"I don't know."
"Then you'll be allowed to come to his house next time?"
“……”
Xu Yinchuan didn't speak, but when he looked out the window, he pursed his lips and smiled, as if he was looking forward to it.
"I don't speak English much with my younger brother, who is too young to learn English."
"He also speaks English, and I think he's so smart, much smarter than those foreign kids."
This is the first time Yi Yao has heard her son praise others, and she touched her son's head again.
She is full of apologies for Xu Yinchuan, he is only seven years old, so he has no complete family.
At the same time, she is also glad that she still has this son, although the marriage with his father is short-lived, but Xu Yinchuan, who has lived abroad since childhood, is much more mature than children of the same age, he knows that it is not happiness that comes by force, so he agrees to their divorce, and is also willing to follow Yi Yao and want to follow his mother back to China, because he has wanted to come to China since he was a child, and he has a yearning for this country with a five-pointed star flag......
has a good start, since then, Xu Yinchuan almost once a week to go to Huaibao's house, at the beginning of the new semester, he began to go to the first grade of primary school in China, changed to once every two weeks, not that Xu Yinchuan has to go, but for his son who does not like to play with other children, Yi Yao had to send him to his brother and let him play with Huaibao.
On June 6th, it was the birthday of Nian Nian and Huai Bao, this year, they were already six years old, which means that next year, the babies will graduate from kindergarten and go to primary school.
This time, my aunt's family, who returned to China, will naturally come.
In the morning, Xu Yinchuan arrived at Huaibao's house alone, and as soon as he entered Huaibao's house, he followed Huaibao.
"Why are you here again?"
Originally, Xu Yinchuan hid behind his back, just to wait to surprise him, and in his thoughts, it was the following situation:
Huai Bao turned his head in surprise, and then Xu Yinchuan looked at her with a smug face, and then they climbed each other's little shoulders amicably, and then the two brothers went upstairs to share interesting stories.
However, the real situation was that Huai Bao didn't reply, but he knew that it was Xu Yinchuan standing behind him, so he said that sentence lightly.
Huaibao has lost a lot of weight recently, but he is still fleshy, and his height has grown a lot, even a little taller than the cousin behind him who is one year older than him.
"I'm Xu Yinchuan."
I don't know how many times I've been here, and it's not that I don't know that for Xu Yinchuan, who has to come to report every two weeks, Huaibao has no other feelings except helplessness.
"I'm not blind."
Well, when he passed the full-length mirror in the living room, Huai Bao saw him.
Then this makes Xu Yinchuan even more unacceptable, in his thoughts, the two brothers have a good relationship, how can there be such dislike.
"I'm your bro, you can't talk to me like that."
"It's my birthday, and you can't bother me."
It was originally a joke from Huaibao, but it was wrong in Xu Yinchuan's ears, obviously a child who is usually much more mature than his peers has not been deflated in front of his younger brother once.
That afternoon, Xu Yinchuan followed behind Huaibao, just for a reason.
In the end, Nian Nian, who came back from dancing, saved him.
Niannian's dance studio seems to be opening a studio, so the children from the original studio all went to the platform, which happened to be her birthday.
Niannian has grown up, and her height is also a lot taller, Niannian wearing a white ballet skirt is the focus of attention among the children, Wang Li has long hair for her, and today she tied a high ponytail, and her small body can now see her good-looking figure, and it is not difficult to see that she will also be a big beauty in the future.
Niannian's good popularity is naturally not all the credit of his own image, and there may be a little bit of his parents who have genes.
Just came back from the event venue, Nian Nian didn't even have time to change her dance skirt, she got off the nanny car at the door, accompanied by a dance teacher, she helped Nian Nian move the birthday gift she received in the dance class to the door, and then said hello to Nian Nian and followed the car, because there were other children to be sent in the car.
"Niannian, see you tomorrow."
"Shang Nian, happy birthday, bye."
"Niannian, I'll give you a gift tomorrow, goodbye."
"Okay, bye-bye, everybody."
The car drove away, Nian Nian sighed, stood at the door and looked at the dozen beautifully packaged gift boxes, and then walked into the courtyard.
"Huaibao! Huaibao! Yi Huai! ”
Huaibao, who was fighting wits and courage with Xu Yinchuan in the house, actually knew that she was back when the car that sent Nian Nian back stopped at the door, so he stood in front of the window and waited for Nian Nian to call him.
Hearing Nian Nian call himself, he didn't care about the heel behind him, and went out with a smile on his face.
"Huh? You! ”
Xu Yinchuan called him, but it could be seen that Huaibao would ignore him, so he pursed his lips and had to go out with him.
