Zhang Xiaoxiao has been a little unable to face Xue Qian since Bai Qinshu's incident. If it weren't for his grandmother's birthday today, he followed his mother back to Xue's house, and it is estimated that Zhang Xiaoxiao would not dare to contact Xue Gan.

Xue Qian was burying his head in the food at this time, his expression looked like he was not very happy, presumably the delicacies of the mountains and seas on this table could not arouse his interest.

", the school teacher has been reporting that you often skip class recently, what do you say you are doing?"

Xue Gan was wild when he was small, and the family felt that whatever he called was not quite in line with his personality, so they simply gave him the name "Qianzi".

Xue Qian had long been accustomed to listening to it, put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, and casually agreed to follow Zhang's mother's words.

"I don't want to go."

"You kid, you're still ———— to be ashamed"

The old bodhisattva shook his head helplessly, looked at Xue Gan, and let out a long sigh.

"I said grandma, if you don't want to go, you don't want to go, do you think it's better for me to lie?"

There is no one in this family who can completely cover Xue Qian.

Xue Qian saw his grandmother's helpless appearance, and her originally gloomy face suddenly became a lot clearer, and with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he gambled back wantonly.

"You ————" was anxious, the old Bodhisattva turned his face sideways, and wanted to count Xue Gan, but the words were stuck in the middle of the road, and he pressed back with a sad face.

That's it, if the family has a reunion and a meal together, it won't add to the blockage.

"Okay, your grandmother has a big birthday today, just let her go, you, you, just rely on your grandma to hurt you~~" Xue Qian's mother came out of the kitchen with a soup spoon, and saw such a scene, she couldn't help it, this child didn't eat any oil and salt, and he just ate soft and not hard, so he had to scold him in a low voice.

"Hmph, no matter how hard the wings are, they can't fly into the sky!!"

Father Xue, who was sitting on the side, snorted coldly with a broken face, which was completely different from everyone's attitude.

This Xue family, although no one can cure Xue Gan, but there are still such a taboo people in Xue Gan, and Father Xue is naturally the most disgusted Xue Gan's appearance of being a hanger and not doing his job, the contradictions between the two have always existed, and quarrels are common, which is also the reason why the relationship between Father Xue and Xue Gan has been unstable for so many years.

"Don't say a word, there are so many dishes, eat more, Xiaoxiao, hurry up and pick up the dishes for your grandmother." Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly condensed, Mother Xue hurriedly signaled her husband to stop, warmed up the scene with a smile, and greeted Zhang Xiaoxiao in one bite.

didn't expect to shout to himself, Zhang Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, and secretly glanced at Xue Gan, who was picking up the dishes and chopsticks again, and picked a piece of fragrant fish meat and put it on his grandmother's plate.

"Happy birthday, Grandma."

"Ouch, thank you for my good grandson~~"

When people are old, they want to have a happy family, Zhang Xiaoxiao's action made the old Bodhisattva smile, and his mouth couldn't close.

After dinner, a large family took out a cake to celebrate the birthday of the old Bodhisattva, no matter how stubborn Xue Qian was, he also knew what a family was, and the boredom on his face had long since dissipated.

It's helping to light candles, singing birthday songs or something, but he can't eat this sweet and greasy cake, so he simply took advantage of the fact that everyone was happy, and came to bring the balcony alone, blowing the cold wind, and the whole person leaned lazily in the single chair, his resolute face had an unpredictable depth, I don't know what he was thinking, quietly looking into the distance, the cold wind hit the bare skin of his neck, and then poured into the black sweatshirt along the gorgeous lines.

Zhang Xiaoxiao walked over and saw Xue Qian like this, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. The cousin in my impression always looks unruly, arrogant and arrogant, but this is the first time I have seen such a preoccupied look.

With two bottles of bottled beer in his hand, one bottle was placed on the table in front of Xue Gan, and the other bottle was held, and Zhang Xiaoxiao sat down on the empty chair opposite Xue Gan.

"A few days ago, I saw my father, on the road by the river, he was with a woman, I passed in front of him, and he didn't seem to recognize me."

Turning on the beer, Zhang Xiaoxiao stared into the distance and muttered.

Xue Qian didn't make a sound, just reached out and snatched away the beer that Zhang Xiaoxiao wanted to send to his mouth.

Zhang Xiaoxiao looked sideways, cocked his legs, and snatched back the beer that Xue Qian had just taken, and then said, "My mother is accompanying the old Bodhisattva inside!" She couldn't see it. ”

Xue Qian pulled his lips.

"It's sad to let your mom know that you're drinking."

"I know, I'm not going to let her see it."

With a stop, Xue Qian put on his sweatshirt and hat, closed his eyes, and the two of them were silent for a long time.

In the dining room, calm was also restored, Zhang's mother and Xue's mother accompanied the old Bodhisattva to the living room to chat, and Xue's father also went to the study.

"Xiaoxiao's dad contacted you, right? A few days ago, someone said that he had returned to Jiangcheng. ”

The old Bodhisattva lovingly took his daughter's hand and looked at her pale face, his eyes full of distress.

Over the years, Zhang's mother has lived alone with Zhang Xiaoxiao, and has suffered a lot, although it is not an economic difficulty, but after all, she is a woman, she was subjected to domestic violence at a young age, and she was divorced.

The old Bodhisattva had long asked and persuaded Zhang's mother to go back to her own house to live, there was nothing lacking at home, and everything was taken care of, but Zhang's mother said that she could do it alone.

How could she, as a mother, not understand what her daughter was thinking!

Her daughter, she doesn't want people to look down on her, she doesn't want those rumors to reach Xiaoxiao's ears and let people poke their backbones.

"Hmm." Mother Zhang pondered for a while, her brows were tangled together, as if after a long ideological struggle, she hummed softly.

"This shameless thing, he still came to contact you, haven't you been tortured by him enough over the years? Rong, don't pay attention to him, let alone those crooked thoughts, Xiao Xiao is so big, you have survived the days of having a father and not a father, you can't be confused!! ”

As soon as the old Bodhisattva heard his woman's admit, his heart suddenly became angry, looking at his daughter, who was so gentle and kind, he was really afraid that the other party would say a few words, and he fell into it again.

"Mom, don't worry, I won't, so many years have passed, I have already let go."

"Yes, Sister Rong'er, that kind of man, it's really untouchable, you better hurry up and change the number, it's really not good, you just bring Xiao Xiao to the house, no matter how arrogant he is, he can't bully the Xue family!!" Mother Xue on the side also persuaded her.

"Your sister-in-law is right, quickly change the contact information. However, I'm curious, why does he still have the face to look for you? ”

"I said I wanted to see Xiaoxiao."

"I can't see it, I can't see it. Back then, he was addicted to domestic violence and made you like that, and the court had already deprived him of his parent-child visitation rights. I'm sure Xiao Xiao wouldn't want to see him either. ”

"Mom, I know what to expect."

"There are numbers, there are numbers, you say this every time, and then you will be confused, if it weren't for this, you wouldn't have divorced him until you were 5 years old."

"Don't say it, Xiao Xiao is here."

Mother Zhang was about to say something more, but Mother Xue saw Zhang Xiaoxiao walking in with slippers, and hurriedly patted Mother Zhang's hand and reminded in a low voice.

"Xiaoxiao, come, my good grandson, let my grandmother take a good look at it, how she is getting more and more handsome." The old Bodhisattva beckoned to Zhang Xiaoxiao kindly, and hugged the big boy who came over with a slightly shy face into his arms.

A pair of hands covered with years caressed Zhang Xiaoxiao's face lovingly, and the old Bodhisattva's eyes were a little moved.

"Good boy, over the years, you've been crying, how about following your mother to live at home?"

Zhang Xiaoxiao smiled shyly, subconsciously glanced at his mother, but saw his mother look strange, a trace of doubt flashed in his heart, Zhang Xiaoxiao turned his eyes back to his grandmother, and then replied: "Grandma, my mother took good care of me." ”

"That's it, that's it, your mother can't treat you badly anyway, you can come if you want, this will always be your home."

The old Bodhisattva flicked his hand, let go of Zhang Xiaoxiao, and said with relief, if he could persuade him, he would have stopped it.

So he went with them.

"Xiao Xiao, stop here tonight, you accompany your grandmother more, and I'll clean up in your room."

After that, Zhang's mother got up, and in the surprise of everyone, she went upstairs.

The old Bodhisattva immediately glanced at his daughter-in-law, and Mother Xue understood, nodded, poured a cup of hot water, and quietly followed upstairs.

As soon as he walked to the door of Zhang Xiaoxiao's room, he heard a whimpering cry coming from inside.

Mother Xue sighed worriedly, took the hot water, gently pushed the door and walked in, and did not forget to close the door.

As soon as I walked in, I saw Zhang's mother sitting on Zhang Xiaoxiao's bed, covering her face and crying.

"Sister Rong'er, just tell the truth, what did that man do with you? I know that you are afraid of disturbing the purity of the old man, and you dare not tell the truth, but in front of me, you don't hide it from me, although I am your sister-in-law, but you don't treat me as an outsider, in my eyes, you are the same as my own sister, seeing you suffering, I feel very uncomfortable in my heart. ”

"Sister-in-law, don't say that......"

Zhang's mother cried, her voice trembled, and she replied.

Mother Xue put down the water cup, pulled out a few paper towels from the table, squatted in front of Mother Zhang, and stuffed the paper towels into Mother Zhang's hand.

"Say, don't suffocate, even if it's a happy cry, it's up to you."

Mother Xue's words can be regarded as breaking Zhang's mother's tight strings.

Leaning over and hugging Xue's mother, Zhang's mother complained bitterly without scruples, with tears and snot on her face.

"It's really not a human being, he is really a brute, he said he wanted to see Xiao Xiao, I didn't let him, he couldn't find my place to live, so he ran to my former company, the boss called me, I just knew. As soon as I ran over, he yelled to see Xiao Xiao, how could I let Xiao Xiao go to see that beast, he refused to live or die, but that bastard, he actually threatened me, saying that if I didn't let him see, I would give him 300,000, I couldn't help it, the company was disturbed by him, so I had to take 10,000 to send him. ”

"This brute!! Sister Rong'er, then why didn't you call the police? Just cheaper him? ”

"Why didn't I think about it, it's useless, it's useless, that person is the prodigal son, she said that if I dare to call the police, he will find an opportunity to go to Xiaoxiao School to block him, you say I'm ...... What to do... What should Xiaoxiao do? ”

The two women were so worried that they didn't notice that the door that had been closed had been unscrewed open at some point.
