The next day, when Yang Xiao and other cronies heard the news, they called to greet him.

"I heard that your cheap brother has already delivered the goods to your door?" Zheng Beibei was full of teasing when he opened his mouth.

"Come on," Ji Tong lay on the balcony and gazed into the distance boredly, then turned over and saw his mother serving Liang Yuchen's breakfast enthusiastically over the French window, and immediately became enraged, "Shit delivery, it's the goods till payment."

The other end of the phone immediately laughed out loud.

"Are you with Yang Xiao?"

"Yes," Zheng Beibei yelled, "If the vinegar is gone, please add more vinegar!" Then he said, "We are eating Xingxiang buns outside the east gate."

In the living room, his mother also brought a stack of vinegar for Liang Yuchen.

"Damn," Ji Tong said angrily, "Why didn't you call me?"

"Your mother cooks you such delicious food every day. When did the food we eat catch your attention?"

This is what he used to tease these two buddies before, showing off will eventually bring retribution.At this moment, Ji Tong's life is like the stack of old vinegar on the table, sour.

He opened the door with a swipe, and went straight to the entrance to change his shoes. Ms. Hu stretched her neck from behind and shouted: "Hey! Little brat, don't you eat breakfast?!"

"Don't eat!" He picked up the key and ran away, "I don't like jealousy!"

—

Outside the east gate of the family courtyard of No. [-] Middle School, the Xingxiang steamed stuffed bun opened by the younger sister of the former principal's third aunt is open.Three stacks of steaming steamers are placed in the store door to attract business. There are deep-fried dough sticks and pancakes next to them, and pumpkin porridge and small wontons inside.

Zheng Beibei and the others sat at the table in the back, and when they saw Ji Tong at the door, they hurriedly stretched out their hands and said, "Here!"

Ji Tong walked over and pulled the stool away: "Why did you choose such a secluded place?"

"It's convenient for you to complain." Zheng Beibei winked at him, but lowered his voice.

The store is full of familiar faces, either the head teacher of the primary school or the physical education teacher of the middle school.

"Boss!" He turned his head and shouted with lung pain from holding back, "A steamed bun and a bowl of soy milk, add more sugar!"

"Okay!" Sangu's grandma's sister's son shouted.

"It's bitter." Yang Xiao smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, "Ji Tongtong is bitter, soy milk has to be added with more sugar."

The crimson lacquered wooden table in front of it was full of potholes and oil stains, revealing the unique market smell of a small shop.Ji Tong yelled again: "Don't come to this house next time, is it dirty?"

Zheng Beibei almost reached out to cover his mouth: "Ancestor, please keep your voice down! I'm really afraid that the boss will pick up a stool and open your head."

The boss happened to bring the steamer in his left hand and the soy milk in his right. He smiled and asked, "What are you serving?"

Yang Xiao was so frightened that he immediately lowered his head and pretended to be indulging in delicious food.

"It's nothing, nothing." Zheng Beibei hurriedly waved his hands, with two dimples on his face, "We're talking about the start of school, and we won't be able to eat such delicious buns after school starts!"

The boss held his chest high, ordered to order more if there was not enough, and proudly went outside to greet the frying pan.

"Almost killed by you."

Bei Bei and Ji Tong grinned face to face, Yang Xiao raised his head bravely and said, "What are you afraid of?! If we really want to fight, Bei Bei, Tong Tong, I will protect you!"

"Get out of the way." Zheng Beibei slapped him away, and poured Tongtong vinegar like wine, "Ji Tongtong, tell me, what happened to your stepfather and stepbrother?"

Ji Tong lowered his head and took a mouthful of warm soy milk, but he still felt bitter, unspeakably bitter.

"Yajiu occupies the magpie's nest." He put down the spoon and squeezed five words between his teeth.

"What do you mean?"

"...My mother insisted that he sleep with me in the same room."

Zheng Beibei's hands holding the buns paused: "Then how do you two sleep?"

"He sleeps on top and I sleep on the bottom." Ji Tong snatched the buns.

Snapped!

The chopsticks in Yang Xiao's hand fell to the ground, and his jaw dropped in shock: "You guys slept on top of each other???"

"Fart!" Ji Tong was speechless, "My mother bought bunk beds."

Zheng Beibei was overjoyed: "At first glance, it sounds like your mother snatched a train ticket."

Only then did Yang Xiao bend down to pick up the chopsticks, took out a palm-sized tissue and wiped it scribbled, "Only Aunt Hu can do this."

"I'm almost tired of you guys still having the mood to joke around," Ji Tong frowned, "Are you friends?"

Zheng Beibei laughed enough, took a tissue to wipe his mouth, put down his chopsticks and asked, "Then what do you want?"

"Of course let him go." Ji Tong frowned and looked at the two people opposite, "You don't know how annoying he is, he made a mess of my room as soon as he came, I asked him if he touched my things, and he gave me a face look!"

He raised his index finger and pointed it at the tip of his nose: "He's an outsider, show me his face, is he mistaken?" When he said the word "I", he almost bit his tongue.

From childhood to adulthood, there were not many people who could show Ji Tong's face.He has a handsome appearance, is generous and smart, has a clever head, and is used to pleasing his elders.Therefore, parents have always been doting, teachers are tolerant, and friends are accommodating.

"Let him go..." Zheng Beibei paused, "I'm afraid it will be difficult. The son-in-law your mother finally recruited is paying attention, and the pony who came with her is also a person of status. You just want to get rid of it if you blow the wind." ?”

Of course Ji Tong knew what she was talking about.

"But I just annoy them!" He gritted his teeth, "Besides, the horse is so cute! He can't reach it, just a stupid donkey like him! Give me some advice and let me drive the donkey away. I don't care. Why did the donkey let me sleep with the donkey?"

In ancient times, there was Bima feeding horses under the warm shed, and now there is Ji Tongtong sleeping donkeys in the house.

The three of them laughed together, ate and chatted, bad ideas came one after another, and they ate breakfast for more than half an hour. In the end, Yang Xiao, the wimpy guy, came up with an idea, which satisfied Ji Tong.

—

After going out for a day and returning home, Hu Aihua was busy with dinner in the kitchen, and the smoke spread into the living room.

Ji Tong opened the door and didn't hear anyone talking, only the sound of the spatula turning over the stove, he kicked off his sneakers and shouted: "Mom, turn on the range hood, it's choking to death."

Ms. Hu said "Got it", and then cooked while humming.Liang's father should have confiscated the stall and returned home, and the doors of all bedrooms were closed.

Pushing open the door of his room, Ji Tong slipped in and rummaged through the cabinets, finding a small bluetooth speaker that hadn't been used for a long time.This was a prize given by the school when his mother won the title of outstanding teacher one year. The small one is only a few centimeters wide, so it can't be seen when it is hidden under the pillow.

He patted the pillowcase, thinking it was perfect.

This side changed clothes and walked out leisurely, and Ms. Hu's meal was ready over there.

"Call your brother and ask when he and his father will be back." She said as she took out her apron, "I have oil on my hands."

Changing to the usual time, Ji Tong started yelling: Who is my brother? !

But right now, because he was anxiously waiting for something bad to happen, he wished Liang Yuchen would come back sooner, so instead of choking, he asked, "What's his phone number, Liang Yuchen."

"Brother!" His mother scolded angrily, "He is four years older than you, did you call him his full name? I copied the number in my notebook, look it up by myself."

"How come his name is poisonous, will the wronged soul manifest or what?"

"You kid wants to be beaten again, don't you!"

Ji Tong made a face at his mother, ran to squat in front of the TV cabinet, took out his fucking notebook from the drawer and dialed the number.

beep--

beep--

He didn't get through for a long time, so he sat cross-legged on the ground and played with his hands in boredom.

After two more beeps, it was picked up over there, and a deep "Hello" came, like some kind of musical instrument with a deep tone, modest but unsophisticated.

It made Ji Tong's ears feel a little hot.

He coughed: "Then what... I'm Ji Tong, my mother asked why you and Uncle Liang haven't come back yet."

As soon as the words were finished, there was the sound of a key turning the lock at the door, and then someone pushed open the door, walked in holding a mobile phone, and looked at the dumbfounded Ji Tong.

"Why are you sitting on the ground?"

"Why did you come back?"

The two asked questions at the same time.

Ji Tong stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his buttocks, "You don't care about me."

Liang Yuchen smiled, and classified Ji Tong's behavior as awkward.He said: "Dad parked the car downstairs and will come up soon. I'm sorry, is it delayed for dinner? A few regular customers came when the stall was closed, and it took a long time to choose."

When talking about business, he doesn't look like a high-achieving student who is about to go to graduate school, but rather like a hand-woven bamboo frame for oranges in a fruit stand, rough and strong.

Ji Tong glanced at him: "Your dad still has a car."

"Second-hand bread, purchased for purchase, is about to be scrapped." He smiled again.

"Yu Chen is back?" Hu Aihua came out with a smile on his face when he heard the voice, and the first thing he looked at was to look behind him, "Where's Brother Lei?"

These old couple are quite tired and crooked, one is Hua Hua and the other is Brother Lei.

Ji Tong's face was hot.

Liang Yuchen repeated what he said just now.

"Oh." Ms. Hu hurried over to get the slippers ready, and made a virtuous gesture. Seeing her son feel a chill, she hurriedly escaped from the embarrassment.

After a while, the four of them sat around the dining table and started eating, watching four dishes and one soup as they filmed a family advertisement.From the picture alone, it's actually quite eye-catching, but it's a pity that only the old couple are really harmonious. Liang Yuchen and Ji Tong almost didn't say a word throughout the whole process, only replying when the elders asked them.

"By the way, Yuchen," Hu Aihua filled a bowl of soup for Liang Yuchen and handed it over. He told him to be careful not to burn it, and asked, "You are going to study in an outer courtyard when you start school. I remember correctly, right?"

"Well," Liang Yuchen straightened his back, took the soup with both hands, thanked Auntie first, and then replied: "That's right."

"Which college?"

"Gao Fan Academy."

"Ah!" Hu Aihua was pleasantly surprised again, "Tongtong is a college with us! This is really the best."

After hearing this, Ji Tong raised his middle finger in his heart.Hello, third uncle and grandpa.

Not only is it not very good, but it should be all over.His home life had been invaded, and now even his school life was in jeopardy.

Sure enough, while chatting, his mother asked with an expression of Tuogu: "Yuchen, you have to take care of your brother more at school in the future, and don't let others bully him." After a pause for two seconds, the expression changed, " Of course, don't let him bully others!"

Liang Yuchen wanted to hear more, so he deliberately led his stepmother to continue, "How come?"

"Why not?!" Hu Aihua had an expression that you don't know, "Your younger brother has made more troubles in high school than exams, and there is no teacher in the whole school that he dare not offend. Go to their homeroom teacher to report for training, even more diligent than yourself in class!"

"Mom!" Ji Tong hurriedly grabbed the white, "Do you think the food you cook is unpalatable? There are so many dishes that can't stop your mouth."

Hu Aihua reached out and grabbed his face: "Did you talk to your mother like that?"

"It hurts, it hurts!"

Liang Changlei smiled honestly, took the bowl in front of his wife and filled it up with a large bowl of hot soup, and carefully handed it to her, "This child Tongtong really sounds like you."

Hu Aihua had no choice but to let go of his hand and take it: "How can I have such a broken mouth!"

The old couple got together verbally and talked affectionately.

Ji Tong's face turned red a lot, he tilted his head and rubbed it lightly, whispering ouch, suddenly a chopstick of fried shredded pork with green peppers fell on the white rice in front of him.Looking back, Liang Yuchen, who had finished picking up the dishes for him, smiled and looked at him calmly.

Snapped--

He was so angry that he dropped his chopsticks, and kicked his feet forward aggrievedly: "You are laughing!"

—

That night, the two of them were lying on the bed trying to fall asleep, opening their eyes and counting the stars and lights shining on the curtain——

Hu Aihua's new addition is said to be more childlike.

Ji Tong yelled upwards: "Hey."

Liang Yuchen heard it, but didn't answer.

Ji Tong thought, asleep?Haven't had time to play tricks yet.He reached out to touch the long umbrella at the corner of the table and lifted it up against the bed board.

Tuk Tuk-

"Liang Yuchen?"

Tuk Tuk-

"Liang Yuchen, are you asleep?"

Finally, a sentence came from above: "No."

"No you don't agree..."

"Just thinking about something."

Liang Yuchen had a lot to think about.The school will start in another month, and he has to study the direction of each tutor, think about what can be improved in the way of making up lessons for Ji Qingyang and another student, and he has to call a few old customers to ask if they have been there recently Escorting translators allowed him to earn some extra money.

But when he didn't speak for a long time, Ji Tong thought he was too lazy to deal with him, annoyed, [-]% of the guilt went away first, he cleared his throat and asked, "What time will you wake up tomorrow?"

"What's the matter?"

"You tell me what time you get up first."

Liang Yuchen paused, and replied, "Seven o'clock."

Ji Tong was secretly happy, pretending to regret: "It's so early? Then you need to go to bed early."

"Well, I'm going to sleep." Liang Yuchen's voice floated in the air, like a thick curtain, covering the stars."Get up early and listen to the news," he said.

Don't look at him day by day as if he falls into the eyes of money, and he never dares to slack off for a day in basic skills.After such a long vacation, he still listens to the news of different industries every day, practices reading for ten minutes, and then finds time to perform consecutive interpreting as he did in college.

To put it simply, it takes more than an hour to complete the whole set.

"Oh." Ji Tong said slyly, "That's over, I'm afraid I'll disturb you."

"why?"

"I snore in my sleep, and the sound is quite loud." He pressed his two fingers to the corner of his mouth, tried his best to imitate a cry with a smile, "Didn't you hear it last night?"

Liang Yuchen thought about it seriously: "No, maybe I slept too deeply last night."

"It's possible." Ji Tong put down his umbrella, quietly took out the bluetooth speaker under his pillow, and talked to divert his attention while connecting to the phone, "You were too tired to move yesterday, so you slept deeply, but today may not be so. If I Really snore, don't be angry with me, okay?"

This bluetooth is really slow to search.

He made his voice as sweet as coconut sugar, and begged softly to delay the time, "How about it?"

Liang Yuchen's heart felt a little numb for no reason, and he turned over at a loss, and his two feet stretched out of the bed followed suit.

"it is good."

Ji Tong narrowed his eyes and smiled: "You are so kind."

His abilities have been used by his parents, teachers, classmates and friends, even waiters and taxi drivers since he was a child, and now he is used by Liang Yuchen.

He is proficient, but Liang Yuchen is unfamiliar.Hearing these three words, I was speechless for a long time.

Ji Tong achieved his goal and stopped talking to him. He took out a pair of earplugs under the pillow and stuffed them into his ears quietly. He lay down on the lower bunk like a little mouse waiting to steal food. After waiting for nearly 10 minutes, he clicked on a snoring sound and opened the Single cycle, the player is timed for two hours.

In the quiet room, the snoring sounded from light to heavy, at first subdued, and then gradually louder.

Liang Yuchen won the national award and passed the second level of interpreting when he was an undergraduate. In terms of intelligence, he should not be inferior to Ji Tong.But for some reason, he couldn't tell the truth of the snoring, let alone fall asleep.

During these two hours, he tossed and turned on the bed, but even turning over was extremely light——

I'm afraid it will wake up Ji Tong below.

Then he couldn't hold it back any longer, he leaned out and stared silently at his younger brother who had just arrived, and found that the stubborn and unusual Ji Tong was opening his mouth slightly, sleeping soundly, and the cry came from there.

He had no sleep and seemed miserable, but he still wanted to smile.
