"Woo......"
"Hmm......"
"Uhh......h
Suddenly, I opened my heavy eyelids, gasped for breath in my mouth, and came to my senses. Then the familiar and unfamiliar ceiling of my room appeared before my eyes, a pure white color, and the glimmer of the morning sun had shone through the gap in the curtains, and I could not open my eyes.
I had a terrible nightmare last night, and the feeling of fear that still lingers in my heart - my father and mother left me alone on a trip overseas, and my sister married a male creature called Xiao He Xiao or something...... It's unbearable!!
When I woke up, I felt that there seemed to be a heavy object pressing on my chest, and when I raised my head slightly, I found that a small brown head was falling asleep on my chest, with long eyelashes fluttering, and even a trace of saliva at the corner of my mouth, a super cute sleeping face, and it looked like I was sleeping comfortably.
Ah, the little sister found out~~
Now the reason for my nightmare is clear.
I looked at the clock at the head of the bed, the hands on it clearly indicated that it was six o'clock in the morning, I carefully lifted my sister's head gently, pulled a pillow from the side for her to pillow comfortably on it, sat up, only to find that my little sister's quilt or something had been kicked off, and the clothes on her body were also wrinkled, revealing a large area of snow-white skin.
I couldn't help but hold my forehead helplessly, and I said why I felt so cold when I slept, so it was...... It's obviously a girl, why is the sleeping appearance so bad, although the old brother has seen some benefits, but what if I catch a cold, stupid little sister.
I got up cautiously, and the movements of my hands and feet were as small as possible, so as not to wake up my sleeping sister, however, probably because the bed board was a little old, and the relationship between the wooden board and the frame was somewhat loose, even if I was careful, I couldn't avoid the sound of the bed board 'crunch' and 'creak', so I could only stop and look at Mitsuki's situation after each stage of the action, and then dare to continue the action, so it dragged on for two minutes before my feet touched the floor.
After picking up the quilt on the floor and covering my sister, I went downstairs to the living room, it was about half past six, and generally not many people got up at this time, especially when it was a Saturday day off.
"Xiaoyou, you're awake. "But by this time my mom was already out of bed.
"Good morning, Mom"
"Well, good morning"
"That's right, Mitsuki-chan?"
"She's still sleeping, well, today is a rest day anyway, it's okay to sleep more"
"Well, but it's not good to sleep all the time? And this kid's sleeping habits are a little bad, so I didn't disturb Xiaoyou to rest yesterday. ”
"It's okay, I slept well last night."
"That's good, that's good, it seems that all the bad habits I had when I was young have been passed on to Mitsuki, it's a little troublesome," Mom said with a sigh on her side face.
"Well, it turns out that Mitsuki is inherited from your mother, but it's really unimaginable that the mother who sleeps lazily and kicks the quilt" I said with a strange face, after all, a mother who does almost everything perfectly can have such a shortcoming......? There are still some 'contrasts and cute'?
"Although I'm a little happy to praise my mother so much, everyone is flawed, but they just have to overcome it one by one in a long life. Mom said to me with a smile.
"Well, got it"
"By the way, what do you want to eat for breakfast?"
"A serving of sweetened milk is all it takes"
"You can't fill your stomach with just milk."
“...... Then add a sweet bread."
"It's not good to eat too many sweets, Xiaoyu"
"Silly Buda, Kasang, because I have a special sugar absorption mechanism, so it's okay"
"Then Xiaoyou, you can go wash up first, and if you get bored later, you can read the newspapers and books in the compartment under the table first."
"yes, I see"
......
After a while I washed up, sat down on the table and began to read the newspaper as my mother had said, and although I had some literature and literature because of my father's relationship, there was not much interest in me. So I started to look for it, flipping through it, and a pale blue photo album on the bottom layer caught my attention, the cover was clean, and I could see the marks of someone who had often rubbed it, and there was my father's handwritten name of our family on it.
It should be a family portrait, I thought with interest, and carefully turned the first page-
Ah, this is a photo I took with my kindergarten aunt when I first graduated from kindergarten
This is a school photo from when I was in elementary school, and there is a picture of my one-year-old sister who has just learned to walk with lace
This is a family photo from a trip to Hokkaido
There are many other photos of me and my sister when I was a child, and suddenly one of the many photos caught my eye.
It was a photo I took when I was not in junior high school, when my father and mother were taking me to take a break from work, when I was studying at home.
The background is in a park where a group of children are playing, everyone is happy, even the passers-by who are watching the children play are all smiling, but there is the only foreign object in this happy and warm atmosphere - a little boy stands straight in a clearing, his head is about 30 degrees, smiling slightly, but although he is smiling, he does not feel the child's happiness at all, because his hands are still tightly clenched into fists. No one can just clench their fists and smile happily, that kind of smile is just the muscles and epidermis laughing, but there is no trace of a smile in the eyes, a dead fish eye, it is really a little creepy, people can't help but want to throw this memory away, like brushing off the caterpillar on the body, to remove this unpleasant thing.
...... And that little boy was me at that time.
However, after slowly studying, after entering junior high school, I slowly read the books that condensed the wisdom of my predecessors, a book and a world, I was reincarnated in this endless world, after a long, long time, I felt like the hero of the story, those things were like my own personal experience, so that I increased a lot of life experience, knew more things, experienced more things, so my mood was a lot calmer, and my eyes were not in a dead look.
Ah, it's good that I don't have a dead fish eye now, and although it has become a squint eye due to overuse, it is still not to the point where I need to wear glasses.
After a while, my father also got up, and after eating breakfast with us, he hurriedly took his suitcase and prepared to go out, I heard that the company had an important meeting and needed my father to go on a business trip, so now I have to rush to the airport.
Looking at my father, who was hurriedly packing his luggage, sitting on the cold wooden floor, holding the shiny pair of leather shoes and buttoning his feet, I finally couldn't help but speak.
"Tosan"
"What's wrong, Xiaoyu?"
"Tossan, haven't all my patents been handed over to you, and the amount in the account, although I haven't counted, it shouldn't be less than eight figures, and there are profit shares of various large companies every month, this money should be enough for our family to live, why are you ......?"
During the period of studying in the United States, I basically lived on a scholarship, but in fact, as long as I got a scholarship after studying abroad, there was no shortage of tuition and living expenses, so I didn't add a big burden to my family.
Later, under the leadership of the old man, he learned a lot of things, and after he had the ability to conduct his own scientific research, he would also help the old man to do some topics, sometimes by himself, sometimes with others, these patents were obtained at that time, some were designed for genetic improvement, some were new drugs and so on......
"Your teacher Vincent has given me a total of thirteen patents, and you have a total of $600 million in your personal account. ”
Because I don't know how to spend money, I don't know what to do with it even if I have so much money in my hand, so I don't particularly care about when I've saved so much, although I still don't understand the meaning of my father reporting these amounts to me.
"That's what you've worked so hard in the United States, Xiaoyu.
My son is really powerful, and my father is far from being able to compare. However, Xiaoyou, the so-called men, are all a group of people who want to make a career on their own, fight hard in the whirlpool of reality, and finally achieve a career, this is what a man should do!
Although the family's financial situation is no longer a problem because of your relationship, Dad still wants to do something. It's human nature to pursue progress, isn't it?
And as a father, I have to teach my children this important part of life personally."
"But ......" Although he was a little reluctant to let his father leave, he couldn't say anything to stop him, his father was also a person, and he also had his own meaning of life, and his mother was the same, and everyone in this world was like this.
"Don't worry, I'll come back often, after all, I'm not short of money now, and I don't have to go home for months like I used to," my father said gently, rubbing my hair vigorously.
"I'll leave the house to you, Chigusa," my father gave me and my mother a gentle look, pushed open the door and left.
"Well, I'll take care of the children," the mother smiled and agreed to her father's request, and watched her husband's departure with tender eyes.
......
"Xiaoyo, do you have free time now?" said my mother who was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen.
"Yes" I still need to charge the notebook in my suitcase, and all my books are in California, so I don't know what to do.
"Then let's send something to my mother. Mom said as she took out a black plastic bag from the kitchen
"Okay, where is it delivered?"
"Give this to the neighbor's house, the Yubihama family next door. ”
