I turned around mechanically, looking at the three of them with a smile, Qin Xiaolan walked over with a puzzled face and said, "What are you sitting here for?" Why don't you go in? ”

"Uh, me, I just arrived, have you eaten?"

I sniffled, trying to change the subject.

Qin Li stared at the fruit bag in my hand, and instantly understood, he smiled and said, "We have eaten, do you want to come in together?" ”

"No, I still have something."

I handed the fruit bag in my hand to Qin Li, and glanced at Zhang Xueyao again, she was standing behind Qin Li, her already petite figure, only half of her face was covered by Qin Li.

When she saw me staring at her, her eyes dodged, the deer bumped into each other, and she seemed to be still mindful of the last purchase turmoil, she wanted to speak and stopped, as if there were a lot of unspeakable sourness, I took a long breath and said lightly: "Xue Yao, the last time has passed, you don't have a psychological burden, uh, this is Qin Li, we are from the same yard." ”

I bowed to Qin Li, looking at her with a smile on my face, my expression revealing an embarrassment that I had never felt before.

"I know, we've been playing together for a day, Brother Qin is very nice."

She had a sweet smile on her face, and I was very relieved to see her so happy for a long time.

After Qin Xiaolan heard this, he glanced at Qin Yan and said disdainfully: "What, I have been a light bulb for a day, and I am still enjoying it?" ”

After she finished speaking, several of us burst out laughing, and the laughter echoed one after another in the empty corridor, and even Du Chenyu and Xiao Ran in the ward could hear it clearly.

"You're here."

The door of the ward opened, and Du Chenyu stood at the door, although he had a deep tiredness on his face, that happy smile could not be hidden, and it seemed that he was getting along with Xiao Ran very happily.

"Come in and talk, what are you doing standing in the hallway?"

Du Chenyu turned sideways and motioned for us to enter the house.

Qin Yan and the three of them walked into the ward talking and laughing, but I stood in place, as if I was glued there with strong glue, unable to take a step.

"What's wrong? Come in. ”

Du Chenyu frowned, but as shrewd as he was, seeing my face full of self-blame and sorrow, he quickly understood my distress, closed the door, and we sat on the rest chairs in the corridor, and each other was silent.

The laughter in the ward was endless, and after a while, I heard Xiao Ran's heavenly singing: the sun in the jungle secretly ran to the embrace of the sea, and made a prayer for the deep blue with sparkling tears, but the call of the light mother can still pass through the boundless sea of clouds, chasing it all the way to trot, child, enough play, to think about going home, the outside is dangerous and lively.

"When Xiao Ran's leg injury heals, I plan to send her abroad to study."

Du Chenyu was the first to break the silence, and when he saw me looking at him with a stunned face, he said lightly: "Xiao Ran is a very smart child, she has a wide range of hobbies, is good at learning, especially has a unique talent for music and painting, you don't want her to nest here and waste her talent." ”

I have no words, I don't have the conditions to give Xiao Ran a better life, and I don't have the right to fight with him for the old and dead.

The next day, Qin Xiaolan went back to his city, I bought a new mobile phone at the mobile phone store, and went out of the stall with Brother Scumbag.

When I opened the warehouse, I frowned, only to see that it was full of clothes like a hill, and his small goods had not been sold yet, which added to these burdens, although Du Chenyu said that he would recycle them calmly, but he couldn't push all these clothes to him, so wouldn't he be useless, like waste.

"What's wrong? Didn't sleep well? ”

Brother Scum glanced at me, he was putting his clothes on the stall, and he was very happy.

There are very few people out of the stall this season, and the customers are even less pitiful, most of the stall owners pack up the goods early, buy tickets to go home, and accompany their wives and children to reunite, so there are countless idle stalls, and the stalls of the scumbag brother are looking at me across the eyes, but two or three meters away, he saw that I was depressed, his expression was low, and he shouted again: "Hey, I said you are here to enjoy?" There is so much backlog of clothing in the warehouse, if you don't worry, I'll worry about you. ”

I half-leaned back on the chair, two large woven bags of clothing stacked next to the stall, watching the market sparsely populated and extremely depressed, I didn't bother to untie the bag, and even more lazy to put these unsalable clothes on the stall one by one.

I had a cigarette in my mouth and squinted my eyes at the gray sky, I hadn't bathed in the sun for a long time, and the city seemed to always be like this, cold and damp in winter, hot and humid in summer, the sun was always blocked behind the clouds, and never brought a glimmer of light to the earth.

"What's the hurry? Anyway, there are no customers, you take a look, such a big market, it seems that the two of us have come out to set up stalls, and everyone has gone home to accompany their wives and children. ”

I said to myself, with a detached attitude of sitting and watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, and watching the clouds roll in the sky.

After hearing this, Brother Scumbag shook his head helplessly, and after he set up the paving, he walked over, snatched the cigarette from my mouth, took two puffs, threw it on the ground and trampled it out, and pushed me from the chair to the ground.

"What are you doing?"

I rubbed my ass, my face full of anger.

"Get out of the way, look at your cowardice."

Brother Scumbag bent down to untie the bag, poured the clothes inside on the pavement, and began to put them up seriously, I sniffed and slowly stood up,

"Du Zhenyu said that he would recycle these clothes."

I said stupidly, so unconfident, so sanctimonious.

"And after that? In the future, you will also count on others to help, or sit back and eat? ”

Brother Scumbag pushed and poured the clothes of the second woven bag on the paving.

"I didn't say that I was going to eat and wait for death, I just felt that there was no temperature in this city."

I justified myself, but every sentence I said felt that there was no level and no depth.

"Do you think there is no temperature in this city? Then why don't you go to the sauna and soak in it, it's so hot that you can't get gas. ”

"It's not about the temperature, it's about the cold."

I pointed to my heart, my eyes wide and round, looking like a fledgling clown.

"No one has hurt you, it's you who are mediocre and worrying."

Brother Scumbag arranged my paving in three strokes and five divided by two, he touched a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, looked at me and said, "If Xinyan was by your side, you probably wouldn't think so, right?" ”

"Those are two different things."

I glanced at him, picked up my chair, half-leaned back, pulled my new phone out of my pocket, and fiddled with it aimlessly.

"It's a completely different thing, I'll help you analyze it."

Brother Scumbag sat down on the horse next to me, squinted his eyes and said, "First, you can't let go of Xinyan in your heart, and you can't let go of Xiao Ran, right?" ”

I was noncommittal, didn't speak, and continued to mess around on the phone screen.

Brother Scumbag stared at me for a moment, and seeing that I was speechless, he took a puff of cigarette and continued: "The second point is that you are afraid that the noble lady will make irresponsible remarks and poke your backbone, because she is Xinyan's mother after all, although she has no right to interfere in her daughter's marriage, of course she doesn't want to see you bring a drag oil bottle to marry Xinyan into the door, right?" ”

I put down the phone and glanced at the scumbag, his face was full of wisdom, like an unfathomable prophet, looking through the autumn water, strategizing, winning a thousand miles, and unpredictable prophet.

I shook my head, sighed softly, picked up my phone and continued to mess around.

Brother Scum's eyebrows twitched, and he laughed dryly, he threw the cigarette butt to the ground, looked at me and said, "Am I wrong, you kid can't listen to a word, I still persuaded you bitterly, I really can't help Adou." ”

"What are you excited about, I didn't say anything, it's up to you to analyze."

I put down my phone, glanced at him, and saw that there were some gray flowers on his temples, I sighed, and added: "Brother scumbag, your hair is gray, let's worry less about snacks." ”

"It's all your anger."

Brother Scumbag moved Ma Za to my side, leaned forward, and said lightly: "The third point, I think your greed is too heavy, and you want to take everything into your arms, whether it is Xinyan or Xiao Ran, you don't want to let go, but you are in a dilemma, on the one hand, you want Xinyan to accept Xiao Ran, not to make a big fuss with you, on the other hand, you are afraid that Xiao Ran will be sensitive and turn against you, right?" ”

Brother Scumbag swallowed his saliva, carefully observed my expression, from the stunned, relieved, doubtful, and now admiration, Brother Slag witnessed my entire psychological process.

I let out a long sigh, sat up straight, stuffed my phone into my pocket, and teased: "Brother scumbag, if you don't want to be a psychiatrist, you'll be succumbing." ”

"How? Does I have any truth in that? ”

"There is a reason, but if you want Xiao Ran to have a good life and a broader future, it is right for her to live with Du Chenyu, I have no right to interfere, my economic conditions are limited, and I haven't married Xinyan yet, if it is after marriage, I can still discuss with Xinyan, but now my situation can't be considered only for myself."

I looked away from the scum brother and saw two familiar figures not far ahead, slowly walking this way.

"That's why you're sad and depressed?"

I lit a cigarette, retracted my gaze back to the scumbag, and said lightly: "Even if it is a cat or a dog, there will be feelings when they are by their side, let alone people." ”

"Then if you don't want to let go, you can go and talk to Xinyan, she is empathetic, maybe she will agree."

"Forget it, I just said it, Xiao Ran lives with me, I will delay her."

After hearing this, Brother Scumbag sighed, his eyes were a little wooden, his expression was dull, and he seemed to have fallen into deep thinking, I saw this, sneered, patted him and said, "Are you homesick?" ”

"Hey, can you not think about it, the two of them are at home, and they have to take care of the elderly, it has been really hard for her in the past few years."

Brother Scumbag rubbed his dry eyes, his expression was sad, his words were sad, it was rare to see him so pessimistic and sad, I was not very good at comforting people, I glanced at him, I asked softly: "Then take my sister-in-law and children over, how good is it for everyone to live together." ”

"This is a troublesome thing, it can't be done overnight, the children want to go to school, the elderly want to support the elderly, the one in my family doesn't know a single big word, it's not good to live in this city, so I simply let her stay at home, there is a hot kang head, there is a hot meal, and it is convenient to take care of the elderly and children."

I bowed my head slightly, expressing my approval, the moon bends and shines on Kyushu, how many families are happy and a few are sad, how many couples are in the same tent, and how many are floating outside?

I took out my phone again, looked at the time, just 9:30 in the morning, my stomach was growling, I scolded in my heart, I was really a wine bag and rice bag, not active in things, but a lot of meals.

"Yo, isn't this the hero who is chivalrous and brave and unparalleled in the country?"

A voice rang out, familiar to me, but I could tell from the tone that the person who could say it must have come at me.
