bunny kid

I knocked on the door of my house, but there was no response.

Speaking of which, is a bachelor who has lived alone for a year standing and knocking on the door of his own house suspicious in the eyes of others?I'm pretty embarrassed anyway.Of course, it's not that I don't have a key, but I hope he can open the door himself, and I hope he can take this step.

"Grandma Qin, you go back first, I'm here."

After calling Granny Qin back, I whispered into the room: "I'm the only one left here, can you open the door and let me go home?"

Not long after, the door opened.I stared at the boy's face in front of me, my eyes were dull, my face seemed to have collapsed, and I couldn't see his thoughts clearly for a while.

It took me a long time to realize that he was the real him, who isolated himself from the world with a tall and thick wall, closed his heart, and did not show any emotion on his face. This is the first impression he gave me. .

I stepped into the house and rubbed my hands: "You're very hungry, right? I'll have something to eat soon."

I took off my gloves and coat and started to do things on my own. During that time, we kept silent.I thought silence would make the boy unable to restrain himself from speaking, but I didn't expect it to make him curl up in a corner leisurely, ignoring my existence directly.

In the end, I was the one who couldn't sit still.

"Why don't you let your mother-in-law into the house? Qin's mother-in-law is a good person and won't harm you. "

He lowered his head and devoured his meal.

"You are not deaf, right? Did you hear me? Otherwise, you wouldn't know how to open the door for me. Why didn't you answer me?" After I said something earnest, I patted him on the shoulder again, hoping He could at least give me some reaction, even if it was just a look, however, he just avoided my hand, those eyes, that mouth were still engrossed in the bowl of porridge, as if he was only interested in "eating" , and things that can move and talk are always timid.

"Oh~" What can I do?He could only sigh helplessly.

The next day, I woke up a little earlier than usual to start a normal workday.I opened the curtains, washed up, changed my clothes and combed my hair. I went to the boy's bed and shouted, "Get up!"

The boy's eyelids moved, his brows furrowed immediately, and he was clearly awake.But even so, he still didn't show the slightest intention to get up.

When I saw this, I was pulled up. He must have been stunned, his eyes were opened a crack, and his expression was dull.

"Today we're going to a private school together, and we'll learn how to read and write with our classmates. You'll make a lot of friends."

As soon as the words fell, the boy suddenly started "babbling". Although he finally spoke, it seemed that it was not a good thing. In a blink of an eye, he lay back wrapped in a quilt.

I stared at him blankly, and for some reason I was amused by him. Isn't this the scene when I stayed in bed with my brother and refused to go to school when I was young?Although the reasons may be quite different.

"If you insist on staying here, it's fine, then I'll ask Granny Qin from yesterday to take care of you, but if you lock yourself up again, I won't allow it."

Seeing that the boy still didn't say a word, but wrapped himself even tighter, I decided not to be gentle anymore.I lifted the quilt with one hand, leaving the boy curled up on the bed with a terrified expression, and picked him up with the other hand, striding towards the door.

"Okay! Then go to school like this." I made up my mind to tease him.

"Hmm... Hmm! Hmm!" The boy struggled desperately, and his powerless fists kept hitting my back, so I had to pretend to be surprised and stop my pace.

"What's the matter?" I put him down, but his arms were tightly held by his hands, and my bare feet stepped on my shoes, as if the floor was too cold, and I refused to step on the ground barefoot, so that I became like a It's the pose he hangs on me.

"Do you want to stay here? If you don't let Granny Qin come in at noon, you won't be given dinner either." I threatened sternly, but he who was hanging on me suddenly raised his head and stared at his big innocent eyes As if begging me, I couldn't bear it anymore, and my tone became softer instantly, "Then go to school with me? I'll give you a full lunch too."

The boy shyly lowered his head and nodded slightly. It was this nod, which seemed insignificant, but it was enough to make me overjoyed. It was the first time he gave me a reaction, a reaction that surprised me endlessly.

And I just smiled from the bottom of my heart and said: "Then let me change your clothes, you will be cold when you go out with thin clothes."

Although it might be troublesome to take him to the school, but like Dong Yigui as the school teacher, he treats the students equally. I truthfully repeated what I said to Granny Qin, and he agreed to let the boy accompany me to class.

"Everyone, I have a new classmate today." In the school, more than a dozen students sat neatly in their seats. Those students were very different from the shy boy next to me. They were at least three or four years younger than him, but In demeanor and demeanor, he is more like a little adult than him, "Tell me about yourself."

As I expected, not only did he not respond, but he nodded and lowered his eyebrows, as if he buried his head in his chest, as if he was not used to this strange scene.

"Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't know the name. This new classmate, go sit on the chair in the corner first." After finishing speaking, the boy staggered over, sat on the chair, and immediately fell on the table, as if he was talking to me. Complain about the dissatisfaction of getting up early, and I, who have been helpless with him all the way, can only turn a blind eye.

From Wanqiu to the gate of the tomb, and then from Luming to Yuli, I read many poems in the Book of Songs. The boy always maintained a lying posture. Because he might become a bad example for other students, I I patted him on the shoulder many times to remind him, but they were all ignored, and I just slept like this until the end of class.

In fact, I thought about it at the time, could it be that the content was too superficial for him?But it's not like that at all, he just doesn't know how to act according to the situation, doesn't know how to get along with others, this may be easy for most people, but he seems to have never learned this basic survival rule in the past so many years , so I will only use evasion to deal with any people and things I don't understand.This is something I didn't know until a long time later.

"Little brother, get out of class is over." I patted him on the shoulder in the empty school, of course he would not respond, "Are you going to the study with me? Or continue to sleep here?"

The boy raised his head, poked his finger on the table, and fell back to sleep.He chose the latter.I have to admit that I was a little disappointed, thinking that he was already relying on me enough, I didn't expect my status to be lost to sleepiness.

"Well, you can sleep here by yourself, I'm leaving."

Although a little worried, I let him stay.I walked to the study room of the school with a clear goal and read books alone among the quiet books.I don't know how long it took, but I saw Master Wanshu walking towards me.

"Mr. Liu Shu, I heard that your cousin is coming to class?" Like greetings, he walked over and found a seat to sit down.

"Yes."

"That's it." The topic ended naturally, Master Wanshu was silent for a while, and then said: "Peng Yu just showed up at the school, and when he came back, he brought Qian Chunyang with him, the two of them must have fooled around together again this morning .”

"That's it." I couldn't get out of the book with my concentration.

"Is it okay? Just leave your cousin like this."

I suddenly realized the meaning of Teacher Wanshu's words, and asked, "Did you see a strange boy when you came here just now?"

"If you want to talk about your cousin, I didn't see it. But it's better to watch it carefully."

"I see, thank you."

I got up and walked out of the study room, only to find that the boy was no longer at the original desk. Why did he disappear? He will be attacked by Peng Yu, I thought about many possibilities, and finally found him in the other courtyard of the school, I was relieved.

At first it was a group of playful students that caught my attention, then I noticed that they were the students who came to class in the morning, and then there was the figure of a boy in the crowd.He crouched on the ground with his head in his arms, and other students stepped on him, kicked him, or poked him with branches.

Those students said noisily: "You are a big brother but you are so timid." "Are you a log?" "Haha! You can't move even if you are beaten by us." Keeping that posture motionless, bearing everything silently.

"What are you doing!" I walked over and yelled loudly. As soon as the students heard this, they immediately put away the branches and feet obediently, stood up straight and lined up.

"Why do you bully your classmates? Didn't I teach you to live in harmony?"

After being lectured by me, a child explained pitifully: "We didn't bully him, we were just teasing him."

"Is this teasing him? If someone treats you like this, will you think it's teasing?" Several children immediately shook their heads with their mouths flattened.

I sighed, knelt down and asked the aggrieved child why he bullied him.

The child looked innocent and troubled, and explained it from beginning to end, and I understood the general idea.Before I came out to look for him, he had already woken up and wandered around, but for some unknown reason, he was hiding under the stone table in another courtyard by himself, and was discovered by the children.The children wanted to use this to play with the boy, but he ran away reluctantly. As a result, he fell too fast and was teased by the children, and then the scene I saw appeared.

"So that's how it is." I scratched my head, and couldn't help but feel ridiculous. The children weren't malicious, but there was no way for the boy to avoid them deliberately. A little farce with wind and waves.

The students left the other hospital quietly, and I immediately went to check the boy's injuries. The knee was indeed bruised, and the wound was quite deep.Without saying a word, I carried him on my back and ran to the study to bandage his wound.At that time, Master Wanshu had disappeared, and we were the only ones left in the huge study room.

I took out the bandages from the medicine cabinet, covered his slender knees and went around and around. At this time, I noticed the bruises on his thighs. The patches were black and blue, not like wrestling. At first glance, it looked like it was hit by something.However, even if I asked him, I would not get an answer. He just let go of his dull eyes as usual. The difference is that he is used to letting me touch him, which can be said to be a great improvement.

"There is still class in a while, let's go to class together..."

Before the words fell, the boy suddenly made a "uh...uh..." sound. I looked up in a daze, and saw him shaking his head sharply, his facial features wrinkled together in a rare way, and the disgust was clear at a glance.

"What's the matter? Don't you want to go to class?" It was the first time I saw such an exaggerated reaction from the boy, and I was stunned.

"Hmm." The boy was still twitching excitedly, and his facial features did not relax for a moment.

Only then did I suddenly realize why he was hiding under the stone table.

Peng Yu.

The name flashed through my mind, and for a split second, I felt my body tremble and blame myself.

"Did you meet some bad uncle just now? Did he do anything to you?"

He lowered his head slowly, covered his cheeks with his hands, and didn't respond to my question. When he let go, I noticed that his eyes were red.

In an instant, something in my heart seemed to be knocked down, and a pain spread quickly. I couldn't help reaching out and stroking the boy's face, saying: "It's okay, it doesn't matter anymore."

He didn't resist, but stared at me with a pair of lovely and pitiful eyes, then he stood up and walked towards the door. When I was in a daze, my hand was suddenly taken, and he stood there in a daze and turned back With a calm and gentle expression on his face, bright light passed through his figure to form beams of light around him, flickering so hard that I couldn't move my eyes, this scene is still fresh in my memory no matter how many years have passed.

I came back to my senses, blinked my eyes, joy could not help appearing on my face: "Let's go home, it doesn't matter if we go home early this day."

I walked up to him, held his little hand, and walked on the way home. I don't know if it was an illusion, but I always felt that he smiled for a moment.
