Chapter 004: Countermeasures
"Brother Xiao, we have to think of a countermeasure. I can't let my parents hire a nanny to come to the house. Hettal said resolutely.
"That's what I thought. First of all, I had to prove that I could be home alone, that I was able to take care of myself, that I didn't need anyone else to take care of me. Secondly, I need to get back to the way I was when I was in school as soon as possible, so that my mom can rest assured that she cares most about my studies. Of course, now I can only rely on pretending, after all, I haven't read and studied for a long time. Also, I'm not a student in the first place. Hatale said shyly.
"It's also important to continue to take your medication on time. Take white and pink pills during the day to feel refreshed, and take blue pills at night to sleep soundly. Hettal teased himself.
"It all requires a high degree of cooperation from you." Hetale continued.
"I do my best." Xiao Yanzhen said.
"Le, I also have an idea. I don't know if you'd like to hear it? Xiao Yanzhen continued.
"Brother Xiao, you say." Hettal responded.
"I think it's hard to stay in the state we are in for a long time without being exposed. Living together every day, there are too many details that can make your parents notice something different. For example, I love garlic, but you don't; For example, I'm left-handed and you're right-handed. Of course, there are many other customary details that are difficult to control at all times. If you slack off a little, you will lose all your efforts. Xiao Yanzhen said.
"So, my advice is: since your parents don't think we're normal. Then we don't have to be the same as we used to be. Returning to normal in such a short period of time will make them feel abnormal. It's better for us to improvise in the details, as long as the explanation is reasonable, and we are not afraid that they will not believe it. In this way, we can also relax and not be too restrictive. Xiao Yanzhen continued.
"After the previous changes, if it is still the same as in the past, it makes people suspicious. It's better to be straightforward and admit to your parents that you haven't fully recovered. In this way, even if there is a slight inappropriateness in the future, they will not be too taboo. As for hiring a nanny, I think we can discuss it slowly, and I don't have to say no. I don't think even if you refuse outright, it won't necessarily change your mother's mind. It's better for us to cut the meat with a blunt knife and persuade slowly, maybe there will be a turnaround. Xiao Yanzhen said.
"Brother Xiao, I think you have a point. Then let's do what you say. Hettal said.
Before you know it, it's evening. When he opened his eyes, it was dark outside the window.
"Son, are you awake? Hungry or not? Have some porridge at night? "There was a call from the living room.
"Not too hungry. Let's eat porridge. With some Wujiang mustard or small boss mustard, you can do it. Hettal got up and sat on the edge of the bed in response.
"Okay, I'll call you when the porridge is ready." Black dad Hailimin said.
At dinnertime, Hei Dad Hai Limin slowly drank the rice porridge in the bowl, and cautiously said to Hei Tale, "Son, after the National Day holiday, your mother and I have to go to work." During the day, you are alone at home, and we are still a little uneasy. After all, your body hasn't fully recovered yet. I discussed with your mother and wanted to hire a nanny for you, and we will take care of you after we go to work during the day, and cook you a meal at noon. When we get back from work, she'll leave. What do you think? We have always paid attention to everyone's wishes, and we have to ask for your opinion. ”
"Mom, Dad, I know that I haven't fully recovered yet, and I still have dizziness and headaches occasionally, and my mood is still not very stable. From time to time, my head is still out of control, and I do something I can't understand. However, it is really much better than before. Hetale said aggrievedly.
"If I were to stay in the hospital, I would really have a nervous breakdown. After going home today, I feel much better, my mood is also relaxed, and the whole person is extremely relaxed. Staying at home definitely helped me recover. I can see you every day, and I don't feel abandoned anymore. Hathaler's eyes were red as he spoke.
Seeing her son's pitiful appearance, Black Mother He Limei's eyes once again filled with tears.
"To be honest, I don't know if I can do it at home alone, but I still want to give it a try. If I'm home by myself, I think I'll feel more relaxed. If a stranger suddenly comes to take care of me, I might be a little nervous, and I will feel like I am being watched. Hettal continued.
"Mom, Dad, why don't you let me experiment by myself for a while! If I can't do it alone, let's hire a nanny, okay? Hetale looked at his parents pitifully.
Hetale's words were reasonable, so that the Halimin couple didn't know what to say for a while, so they had to agree that Hetale would experiment at home alone for a period of time. In the end, the three of them agreed to install video surveillance at home, so that parents can check the situation of Hetale at home at any time, and find out in time if they encounter special circumstances.
The matter of hiring a nanny has come to an end for the time being.
After dinner, he chatted with his parents for a while, listened to them talk about the current situation of his relatives at home, and then took medicine early and went back to his room to rest.
Lying on the bed, he quickly entered a meditative state.
"Brother Xiao, I think we should be considered successful. My parents have tentatively agreed that I am home alone. Hetale said excitedly.
"For more than two months in the hospital, I was going crazy. From tomorrow onwards, I must release myself. Then I will introduce you to the present world, which is guaranteed to be something you have never seen, absolutely beyond your imagination. Hettal said confidently.
"Le, one of the things that makes me most anxious right now is that I don't know how to adapt to this so-called world. Everywhere there are things that I have never heard of or seen. It's fresh and panicked. I don't know how to fit in. Xiao Yanzhen said.
"If I had adapted to life earlier, wouldn't you have been able to regain more freedom?" Xiao Yanzhen continued.
"Another thing that puzzles me is what kind of mechanism is it that makes us always switch souls suddenly and without warning? Ever since it got into your body by accident, I haven't come up with a reason for it. I'm afraid we'll have to solve this problem together. Xiao Yanzhen said.
"I really haven't thought about these issues very much. Well, I'll show you everything in the house from tomorrow. Let's learn slowly, and I'm sure with your wisdom, you'll be able to do it quickly. Hattale responded.
"As for the soul conversion you mentioned, I have a little bit of an experience. Whenever I'm very happy or depressed, all of a sudden my body seems to be not listening to my head, and my head seems to fall asleep suddenly, and then I don't know anything. I think it's up to you to control my body for me. The only regret is that our memories are out of sync after the soul transformation. Otherwise, we can make it seamless. Hetale said helplessly.
"At least now we can communicate through meditation about everything that happened before. It's a lot like having a drink with a best friend. Xiao Yanzhen smiled.
"Brother Xiao, I've grown so big, and I've never drunk alcohol. My mother is very strict with me, and my family doesn't let me drink during the holiday dinner, saying that drinking is easy to make people stupid, especially for children who go to school, or they won't be admitted to college. My dad never drank at home. According to my mom, he drank a glass of beer and got under the table. Heita Le chatted with Xiao Yanzhen.
"Although wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, it is also a miracle medicine for courage and a water of temperament that fuels pleasure. There is no one in Daliao who does not drink alcohol, whether male or female. Don't you hear Li Baidou's 100 poems? The person I admire the most is probably Li Bai except for me. 'Zhao Keman Hu Ying, Wu Hook Shuang Xueming. The silver saddle shines on the white horse, like a shooting star. Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles. The poems in Li Bai's "Chivalrous Journey" are full of heroism. Speaking of drinking, Xiao Yan couldn't help but be full of interest.
"Le, if you have a chance, you must have some wine and feel it. It is refreshing in the sweetness, and the aftertaste between the lips and teeth is mellow. Drinking doesn't mean you have to be drunk unconscious. Everyone's alcohol consumption is different, so you don't necessarily have to compare it to others. There are only two kinds of people who compete with others and drink fiercely, one is really massive, and the other is reckless. Let's have a drink. Xiao Yan added.
"But, it has to be said. Drinking too much alcohol does delay things. If it weren't for drunken negligence, I wouldn't have died. Alas! Xiao Yanzhen said helplessly.
"Looks like you do like to drink. When you get used to life in this world, I can lend you my body and let you go out for a drink. Hetale said with a grin.
"It's a deal!" Xiao Yan couldn't help but say.
"Brother Xiao, tell me about you! What kind of person is he? Hetale asked curiously.
"I, yes, am a military attache (place name) and Meng'an (official position), from the fourth rank of military attaché, managing thousands of people. Yaye is very strict and taught me martial arts since I was a child. Learning martial arts is very hard, no matter how cold or hot it is, yes always pulls me up from the quilt at dawn. Yaye is also a very proud and fond drinker. He often brought a group of brothers to his house to drink, and he was always very drunk. Yaye is also a brave hero, covered in scars. Speaking of his father, Xiao Yanzhen's heart was full of reverence and longing.
It was late at night, and the two souls in the body of the young Black Towerer, who had been separated by thousands of years, were quietly communicating.
