I make a living solving crimes.

Chang Wei has a huge scroll painting that he has been working on for more than half a month.

The main thing is that every time I paint, I feel uncomfortable when I see that face that I will never see again.

Every time he woke up from his dream at midnight, his father in police uniform looked at him tenderly, "Xiao Wei, take good care of your mother and your brothers and sisters at home."

When he woke up, he would find his pillow soaked.

After putting away the 70% completed scroll, the little girl climbed onto the bed, sat on his legs, and stretched out her chubby little hands to rub Chang Wei's cheeks.

Holding the little girl in his arms and letting her hug his arms, Chang Wei selected a vinyl record and put it on the turntable. He turned down the volume and soothed his depressed emotions.

"Uncle, I'll be a good boy." The little girl clung to him lovingly.

Understanding that this was a comfort from a young child, Chang Wei smiled, leaned on the bed, put the little girl on his stomach and propped her up, making her giggle.

Chang Long came into the house holding half a piece of wife cake, and looked at the little girl with envy. Chang Wei glanced at her sideways, "Are you deceiving your second brother again?"

Chang Long pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "My second brother said it was too greasy and asked me to help him eat it."

Chang Wei sneered and decided not to provoke her. He turned around and saw the little girl staring at the half piece of wife cake.

As if she sensed Chang Wei's gaze, the little girl giggled again and said coyly, "Seven cakes have bad teeth. Today is the seventh day. I won't celebrate it again."

Chang Wei was very pleased.

He pushed the little girl on his stomach twice, then held her arms and brought her to his head and gave her a kiss, "Xiao Man is the best, uncle wants to reward you, tell me, what do you want?"

The little girl immediately said, "I want seven cakes."

Before Chang Wei could say anything, Chang Long was already rolling on the ground laughing.

The little girl probably knew that she had made a fool of herself. She buried her head in Chang Wei's neck and refused to get up, with her little feet curled up into a ball.

Chang Wei sat up and patted her butt. "Bingbing has eaten today and can't eat anymore. What else do you want, Xiaoman?"

The little girl’s world is very small, so small that it can only accommodate an uncle. The little girl’s world is also very big, so big that she has countless fantasies and expectations.

"Uncle, I still want to hear a story."

Chang Wei was stunned for a moment, then he realized that it seemed that every child wanted to listen to stories.

He is a good storyteller and has many stories, from Twinkle Twinkle Red Star to Snow White.

But the little girl was too young, so there was no need for him to talk about Wang Erxiao herding cattle or Gazi selling wine.

Her life should be full of innocence and happiness.

Let's talk about those heavy topics when she's a little older.

Listening to Swan Lake on the record player, he smiled and said, "Then my uncle will tell you a story, but you are not allowed to tell anyone else."

The little girl was a person who kept her promises. She nodded her head heavily and said, "It's uncle's breast."

After saying that, he glanced at Chang Long again and said, "Auntie, you are not allowed to listen."

Chang Long was also a child, so he was not willing to leave. He came over and sat on the floor beside Luohan's bed, with his head on Chang Wei's thigh, and said coquettishly, "Brother, I promise I won't tell you. Just tell me."

Chang Wei did not drive him away.

Thinking about it, Chang Long is only seven years old and lost her father when she was young. He is the eldest brother, but he has never paid much attention to her.

"Once upon a time, there was a handsome prince in the Kingdom of Xia named Wu Jimao. One day he went out hunting with his soldiers..."

Swan Lake, but Chang Wei set the story in ancient China. After all, there were princes and boars in our history.

The princess of a neighboring country is cursed by the king's teacher to turn into a white swan every day and can only change back to human after dark.

As the story slowly unfolds, the two little girls have been moved by the tragic fate of little Princess Jiang Hongxia, and they clench their fists in unison to defeat the imperial teacher Li Laifu.

Li Laifu, who was reading his notes in the back house of the third courtyard of Taotiao Hutong, shuddered all over, as if a mysterious aura was imposed on him, making him shudder.

As the story continues, Wu Jimao defeats the monster sent by the national teacher Li Laifu. In order to lift the curse and turn the princess from a white swan into a beautiful girl, the prince must marry the princess.

So a grand wedding took place.

At this time, Chang Long suddenly asked: "Brother, if Prince Wu Jimao wants Princess Jiang Hongxia to give him a baby, what if she lays an egg?"

How would Chang Wei know what to do?

If you really want to lay an egg, you can probably use green peppers, or leeks, or just stir-fry it?

This little brat really has a very unique way of thinking.

Hearing the noise in the room, Chang Tian and Chang Da also came in. Seeing the little girl and Chang Long lying on Chang Wei to ask for answers, they asked curiously, "What happened to you?"

Chang Wei dodged Chang Long's clutches, lifted the little girl high up and said with a smile: "I'm kidding, why are you all here?"

"Master Yi just came over and brought you something." Chang Da placed three telescopic sticks on the low table of the bed. "I don't know what happened recently, but Master Yi has lost a lot of weight."

Chang Wei put the little girl down, got off the bed and tried to swing the three telescopic sticks, then took out ten yuan from the bag hanging beside him and gave it to Chang Tian.

"Third brother, you go there and tell him that this is the cost of materials. Keep it whether he wants it or not. Thank him for me."

Chang Tian took the money, remembered Chang Wei's words, and trotted all the way to the middle court. He ran back in less than two minutes, "Brother, I said thank you, but the old man didn't want the money, so I just left it and ran back."

Chang Wei nodded, and then stopped taking the matter to heart. He looked at Chang Da and said, "Sister, are you busy at work recently?"

Chang Da pulled Chang Long up from the ground and gently patted her clothes. "What can I do? I just did some work for the first two days of the month. The factory was quite busy, dealing with some old equipment."

Chang Wei was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked: "What equipment?"

"A batch of old sewing machines. They said the factory imported a batch of new ones from the north. These old ones are ready to be disposed of. I am preparing to file a report."

Chang Wei was thinking in his heart that he probably wanted to take the opportunity to balance the deficit in the finance department's accounts.

"Sister, ask around, and if there's a good one we can buy one."

Chang Da hesitated for a while before nodding, "I thought about it, but I didn't mention it because I was afraid it wouldn't be suitable. However, several cadres in the factory followed suit and bought it."

"Buy, buy, buy. We have to take advantage of this bargain. We won't buy too many. One is enough. It will be convenient for you to make clothes at home in the future. Just go find the office director. I'll give him a pack of cigarettes for you tomorrow."

Chang Da was obviously moved, and when she heard Chang Wei's support, she quickly agreed.

Xiao Zhao peeked outside the door and saw that Chang Wei and Xiao Man were there. He let out a "meow" and jumped onto the Luohan bed. He took a few steps to Chang Wei's chest and started stepping on it.

"It's a pity that it's a cat. If it were a dog, it could guard the house." Chang Da rubbed Xiao Zhao's black fur and sighed.

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Zhao suddenly got angry, turned around, showed his fangs to Chang Da, and meowed in a childish voice, which immediately made Chang Da laugh.

"Speaking of puppies, I remember raising one in the village when I was a kid."

"You still remember." Chang Da gently patted Chang Wei's knee and pretended to be annoyed and said, "Don't mention it. One time, I almost died of stink. I washed my clothes with my nose pinched."

Chang Wei really didn't remember, but he guessed that he was probably naughty. Only Chang Long was unwilling to give up and asked, "Sister, tell me quickly."

Chang Tian was also very interested, as he really wanted to know his brother's childhood story.

Chang Da just laughed.

"When your eldest brother was young, he had a dog named Happy. One time, he followed his grandfather into the city and came back. When he reached the entrance of the village, the dog ran to pick him up. There happened to be a manure pit in the middle, and the dog jumped in and started swimming. When your eldest brother saw it, he was so scared that he turned around and ran away."

"And then?"

"And then? Then your eldest brother ran all over the village, with the dog chasing him. Everyone in the village saw him."

"Ah? Did my eldest brother win?"

"Do I still have to do laundry if I beat the runner?"

"Hohohoho, big brother, you are so weak."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Giggle cluck."

The night is as dark as ink, the moonlight is as silver, and the waning moon is like a beautiful woman's eyebrow, revealing a faint smile.

Outside the house, Yang Min listened quietly to the laughter in the house, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.

PS: I’ve been feeling annoyed recently.

I always feel that life is a bit extreme

I guess I'm still not used to it
