Chapter 4: The Suitors of the Year 11

"This story has to start from about fifteen years ago......"

At that time, Wen Xuyan was 3 years old and Jiang Jiujiu was 6 years old.

Before the two of them were born, the Wen family and the Jiang family were already door-to-door neighbors.

The two families live close to each other, and they often see each other without looking up or looking down, and after learning that each other's home also lives in a small couple, they come and go for a long time, and they are also familiar with each other.

Especially Mother Jiang and Mother Wen, the two can be said to be familiar at first sight.

Their personalities are very similar, and their interests and hobbies are similar.

The important thing is that neither of them can cook, and they both have a husband who can cook!

So the two of them would often sit together and drink tea and chat when they had nothing to do.

It didn't take long for Jiang's mother to become pregnant. A year later, a healthy little girl was born.

At that time, Wen's mother was an envy, and she always yelled with her husband whenever she was free-

"I also want a cute little baby, Xiaoyu and her little girl are so cute! I'm going to envy the dead. ”

But who made Father Wen feel sorry for his daughter-in-law, no matter how Mother Wen grinded hard, he just refused.

also always threatened her that giving birth to a child would be like this and that, but it would torture a person to death.

Mother Wen was indeed intimidated by these words at first, but her husband's words are not important after all, there is no good girlfriend, isn't it?

After hearing about it, Jiang's mother told her, "Actually, it's not that scary, it's good to have a painless fight during childbirth, but the morning sickness in those three months is really torturous." ”

As soon as Wen's mother heard this, she became energetic, and began to pester Wen's father to have a child again, and she pestered for more than two years.

Two years later, Wen's mother finally got her wish and conceived a baby.

conceived in October and finally gave birth to a healthy little boy.

Later......

The two families are still neighbors.

Even when they moved and moved into a more spacious house, the two families were still separated by a wall.

Even Wen's mother later demolished the wall and installed a chic little door to make it easier for the two families to visit each other.

Jiang Jiujiu is three years older than Wen Xuyan, so from another point of view, he can be said to be a child who was watched by Jiang Jiujiu.

The two children often play together, so Wen Xuyan is very close to Jiang Jiujiu, and he is so close that he almost abandoned his parents.

At that time, Mother Wen also complained to Mother Jiang about such a sentence -

"Damn! Ten months pregnant, the doll born with hard work actually ran to your house every day, this will not become your child sooner or later! ”

Mother Jiang smiled and comforted Mother Wen, "Children, it's good to grow up." ”

"Don't, I still prefer to watch the scene of my little bastard pestering Jiujiu!"

"Poof, you......"

All year round, spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Jiang Jiujiu and Wen Xuyan held hands and grew up under the joint gaze of Mother Wen and Mother Jiang.

It's three years.

Originally, everyone lived an ordinary life, but suddenly one day, the Wen family encountered difficulties.

Some creditors ran to their homes to collect their debts.

The two children ran out playfully, but they were targeted by the debt collectors.

Jiang Jiujiu pulled Wen Xuyan to run desperately, accidentally stumbled and fell off the high platform, broke his hand, and when he caught Wen Xuyan, his center of gravity was unstable, and his head hit a stone.

Fortunately, they survived by hiding in the bushes.

......

"We had been close until then,"

Wen Xuyan blanched the pork ribs to remove the smell, and while taking the tomatoes handed over by Jiang Jiujiu, he continued: "Later, they suddenly moved, I don't know why, but I've been inquiring about their news."

"So that's ......" Jiang Jiujiu helped stir the eggs together, "Sure enough, young people are different, why do you have such a good memory?" ”

I still remember what happened when I was three years old.

"How can I have such a good memory," Wen Wen chuckled, "I should have forgotten about it, but ...... My mom would often joke with me about pestering my sister when I was a child, and I remembered it a little bit as I came and went. ”

"Then your sister is also quite powerful, at the age of five or six, she will not be afraid of wrestling and bleeding."

“......”

Wen Xuyan looked at Jiang Jiujiu, and there was suddenly a strange emotion in his eyes.

"She's scared." Wen Shuyan said suddenly.

"Huh?"

"She's actually scared...... It's just so that I don't have to be afraid, so I pretend I'm not afraid. ”

"Because she knows that if she cries, I'm going to cry even more."

"You...... How do you know? Jiang Jiujiu paused and asked cautiously.

"My mother told me," Wen Xuyan took it for granted and poured the tomatoes into the pot, "She was still medicated with my mother's help after she was injured, and what she told my mother, that's what my mother told me." ”

"A five- or six-year-old child has such a big injury on his forehead, how can he not be afraid."

"And my mom told me that the wound on her head was so bad that it might leave a scar."

As he spoke, the scrambled eggs with tomatoes were ready.

Jiang Jiujiu took the opportunity to hand Wen Xuyan a plate, but the latter did not take the plate immediately, but stretched his hand forward.

At the moment when Wen Xuyan's slightly cool fingertips touched the corner of Jiang Jiujiu's forehead, Jiang Jiujiu could feel that his whole body was shaking.

"It was in this place that a scar was left behind."

Wen Xuyan said softly and slowly, and his fingertips gently touched the half-finger-length scar left by Jiang Jiujiu's forehead and hairline.

At the end, he took the plate in Jiang Jiujiu's hand.

“......”

After his hand was empty for a while, Jiang Jiujiu finally reacted slowly.

The memories of her childhood suddenly flooded into her mind, and she finally recognized who the "little boy" in front of her was!

Her eyes widened in shock, and she pointed at Wen Xuyan, her face full of incredulity: "You are...... You're that little kid from Aunt Wen's house?!! ”

Small, little kids?

Wen Shuyan paused. Forget it, a little kid is a little kid.

He turned around, and just as he was about to say something, his face was suddenly held by a pair of soft hands.

"Oh my God! How long has it been? You've grown so big! ”

Jiang Jiujiu held Wen Xuyan's face, looked left and right, looked up and down, as if he had just met him on the first day, and wanted to seriously distinguish whether this was a "high imitation" goods.

"No, sister, you recognize my mother, but you don't recognize me?" Wen Xuyan has been holding Jiang Jiujiu's face, and he couldn't help but ask funny when he heard her words.

"Ahem...... It's not, horses have hoofs, people have amnesia......" Jiang Jiujiu scratched his face in embarrassment.

"After all, it's been so long, so it's normal not to remember, right?"

When he met Mother Wen in Xingjiuke, it was Mother Wen who recognized Jiang Jiujiu first.

At that time, Jiang Jiujiu didn't remember much about Mother Wen when she was a child, but it was Mother Wen who explained her memories one by one, which awakened a little memory of her.

Mother Wen: "When my son was a child, his favorite was yours, and he was not happy if he didn't see you for a day, do you remember?" ”

Jiang Jiujiu: "Ah...... Like, remember? ”

Mother Wen: "Don't look like it, you haven't seen him for a long time, when you are free next time, I will bring him out, you will see!" ”

......

In the next few days, Jiang Jiujiu was in a relatively busy state, so he forgot about this incident, and naturally he would not recall it much.

And on the first day Wen Shuyan arrived home, when she heard what Wen Shuyan said, she had a little doubt in her heart, but she didn't think much about it, just thought it was a coincidence.

After all, who doesn't have a second child yet, isn't it a third child?

Thinking about it now, Jiang Jiujiu simply felt that he was really pure at that time!

Obviously the truth was in front of her, but she didn't think of anything!

Jiang Jiujiu, who was overexcited, couldn't help but pick up Wen Xuyan's face again and look left and right.

The little brother she loved back then came back to her, as if her love for him had returned.

Jiang Jiujiu pulled Wen Xuyan to eat together, obviously there were only two people eating, but she kept serving food to Wen Xuyan.

After the meal, Jiang Jiujiu diligently helped Wen Xuyan clean up the table together, and also took the bowl over and washed it together.

"I still can't believe it, oh my God, you're actually a little dumpling!"

Because Wen Shuyan was very soft and cute when he was a child, and QQ was round, Jiang Jiujiu gave him a nickname at that time, called "Little Tuanzi".

Wen Xuyan didn't mind this title, so she let her call,

Jiang Jiujiu was washing the dishes while smiling and chatting with Wen Xuyan.

"You were so cute at that time! It's been a little bit, all day long, 'sister', 'sister' called, wow old man's girlish heart! ”

"It's all melted!"

"Sister......" Wen Xuyan suddenly grabbed Jiang Jiujiu's hand that was washing dishes, his head was slightly lowered, as if he had something to say.

"Huh? What's wrong? Jiang Jiujiu looked back at Wen Xuyan suspiciously, only to see Wen Xuyan looking like he was stumbling and wanting to speak.

"I ......" Wen Xuyan has always had something to say to Jiang Jiujiu since just now, but there are too many things he wants to say.

I was just about to speak, but I didn't know where to start.

"I ......"

He struggled for a long time, looking at Jiang Jiujiu's eyes a little strange.

It was better for Jiang Jiujiu to not know what to react to all of a sudden.

After careful consideration, Wen finally decided to speak.

"Sister, in fact, I have always had a question for you......"
