As soon as Lai Zongxian put down his cell phone, the door of the ward was opened with a bang, and his son rushed in with his head bowed, plopped on his lap, his face covered in the quilt and motionless.

"You went to see your mother?"

The kid nodded.

"What's wrong? Your mother killed you?"

The child shook his head, and after a while, he finally raised his face, moved to his side, and leaned on his uninjured arm.

His eyes were red, and there were still two wet marks on the place where his face was lying down just now. Lai Zongxian was very curious and asked, "What's wrong?"

The child bit his lower lip, looked up at him, his eyes were as bright as black agate, and asked, "Why doesn't he like me?"

"Why do you think so?"

The child shook his head, Lai Zongxian moved aside, grabbed the son's shoulders and asked the child to come up.

Lai Yousheng took off his shoes and climbed onto the bed, curled up in his father's arms, buried his face in it again, and said: "He just doesn't like me, and he doesn't like you, every time I mention you, he doesn't want to, I don't want to be like this, shouldn't the three of us be together?" After speaking, he leaned into his father's arms again, and muttered in a low voice as if angry: "It will be just the two of us from now on, I don't want my mother anymore..." The more I talked, the more wronged I became, and in the end I started to sob.

Lai Zongxian couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't know what his younger brother said to the child to make him feel so wronged.

He patted his son on the back and said, "I really don't want my mother anymore? Your mother just called me to say sorry."

The child moved his head, paused for a second like a frightened rabbit, and then turned back, saying, "You are lying."

"What did I lie to you for? Don't you know by looking at the communication records of my mobile phone?" Lai Zongxian turned on the mobile phone and placed it next to his son's face. The child said he didn't want to read it, but he still turned his face slightly to look at the phone's interface.

"Why didn't he just call me?"

Lies always have to be rounded up. The purpose of taking him home when the child was five years old was to make the elder and younger brother get closer. This is the younger brother's future support. It is always a bad thing to have a estrangement when you are young.

Lai Zongxian's voice was terribly gentle, he tried his best to comfort the child, and said, "He is shy and embarrassed to tell you, but asked me to tell you, so he likes you and is embarrassed to tell you, do you understand?"

The child was silent, as if he was thinking about something carefully, then rubbed his face on his shoulder, and said in a buzzing voice because he had just cried secretly, "But I still hope that he will tell me that he likes me." , I only knew when I said it clearly.”

"No hurry, take your time."

"how about you?"

This question made Lai Zongxian feel a little relieved. The child was always thinking about himself, and he was thinking about the three of them. He left the expectation to the child, but when the reality was left to himself, he didn't know how to make himself happy. Lied.

Lai Zongxian stopped talking, his breathing became heavier because of his thoughts, the child stopped asking, he was too tired, and fell asleep in his father's arms.

……

Since that departure, Lai Yousheng and his mother have not been in touch for four or five days.He told his father what he said that day, and his father told him to reflect on it. He was too anxious at the time, and now thinking about it, he said something too serious.

On Saturday, the father was discharged from the hospital, and the child received a call from his mother when he was leading his father to get in the car home. He looked up at his father, and his father nodded and told him to pick it up. The child did not respond because of that. The next time, he deliberately neglected, and obediently fed him on the phone.

"You sound?"

"Well, Mom." Lai You called out, hoping that Mom would understand the apology in his tone.

There was no talking over there, he broke the silence first, and said, "I'm sorry I didn't go to you today, can you do it tomorrow? Dad was discharged from the hospital today."

"Discharged?"

"Well, I'll hang up on mom first." After speaking, he hung up the phone and dragged his father into the car.

Just now, his son opened the hands-free, and he heard his younger brother's voice very clearly. The other party seemed to be surprised by his hospitalization. It is estimated that the son told his younger brother, but the younger brother did not believe it.

He had already seen how clever his son was, and now he deliberately told about the discharge from the hospital. He understood his intention. After getting in the car, he kneaded the child's fleshy hand with his fingers and said, "You don't need to tell him this."

The child held his father's finger with his backhand, leaned his head on the adult's arm, and said firmly, "I want him to know that everything I said to him is true."

……

Lai Yusheng was restless after his son hung up the phone. His elder brother was always in good health. He thought it was a minor injury or illness. How could it be so serious that he was hospitalized?The panic and pleading of his son when he came to find him reappeared in his mind, but the helplessness and panic that seemed to him now felt that his son was faking it at the time.Thinking back, it seemed that children had been coaxing him all the time, obediently following his wishes at all times. The questioning last time made him suddenly understand that Yousheng is only seven years old, and what he needs is the love of him as a parent. But he didn't do it. At that time, he didn't even have the most basic trust.

He almost struggled with his thoughts for nearly a day. At the end of the day, he chose to go out to see his elder brother. Since he chose to return to China, he would inevitably have contact. Besides, there was a friendly voice between the two of them. I owe you an apology, maybe I can make it up today.

The gate guard in the park greeted him warmly and asked him if he was in better health. His memory of the estrus that day was very vague. He didn't know why the guard asked himself such a question, so he could only politely smile and nod .

The nanny was sweeping the fallen leaves in early autumn in the front yard. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone standing in front of the door. She raised her eyes to look, and hurried to open the door excitedly. She opened her mouth to shout, but finally burst out crying and laughing.

She didn't know what conflicts there were between the Dong family and the Dong family's younger brother. Leaving aside such a long time before, what she couldn't understand was that the younger brother could be so ruthless not to look at the Dong family when he was sick and weak in the hospital. She carefully looked at it. After all, the care is not as good as the little love of the real relatives. She, an outsider, can see the love of the boss for his brother, and now I can't help but feel weird and cruel when I mention it.

Lai Yusheng smiled at the nanny. The nanny was his half-grandmother. After the nanny left, the nanny had been taking care of him and his brother's daily life. He asked, "How are you doing recently?"

The nanny nodded and was about to go in to make an announcement. Lai Yousheng stopped her when she came out of the house, told her to go to the kitchen, then stood on the cushion outside the door, and held her hand when his mother approached. Go through the living room to the backyard.

The weather in early autumn was a bit chilly in the evening, and Lai Zongxian was wearing some thin pajamas. He was discharged from the hospital today and gave himself a rare day off. He sat on a chair in the backyard and spent a long time in a daze. There will be habits.

He heard footsteps behind him, thinking it was the nanny persuading him to eat, he was still angry when he came home today and found that all his wine had been collected without a trace, besides, even if the porridge was changing, now he I was tired of eating, so I just closed my eyes and said, "I don't want to eat."

"dad."

His nanny is also changing tricks, now it's useless to ask his son to persuade him to eat, he snorted and said, "It's useless for you to come."

If it wasn't because the voice came from the back, Lai Yusheng wouldn't be sure that the one sitting there was his brother. From behind, he looked a lot thinner, and the bone on the neck protruded, because it was an alpha. His brother His frame was large, and it now appears to be morbidly thin.

Lai Yousheng pursed his lips and shrugged his shoulders. His father was always extremely stubborn when it was time to eat. He and the nanny took turns to take care of him, which was even more difficult to serve than a picky eater. He remembered that when he was young, he always ate obediently.

The nanny also came at this time, carrying a bowl of fragrant white fungus and lotus seed porridge, the host can actually eat other things now, and the evening is still mainly light, but the appetite has not been as good as before, and she still loses weight, worrying badly I lost a nanny and couldn't take care of my boss, so I almost resigned with tears in my eyes.

Lai Yusheng took the bowl in his hand, walked over slowly, and sat on the small chair next to him. His brother didn't open his eyes, and his frowning seemed to express his dissatisfaction with not obeying his wishes.

Feeling a burst of hot air around his mouth, accompanied by the sweet aroma of porridge, that hot air made Lai Zongxian a little irritable. He wanted to open the bowl with a wave of his hand, but he was concerned about not burning anyone, so he turned his face away and opened his eyes at the same time. , Said: "I said I don't..."

The momentary surprise and astonishment were all conveyed through the eyes. Lai Yusheng pretended not to see it. From the beginning, his brother's tone had the feeling of being arrogant. He had seen a lot, and his brother pestered him This is what I use when making love, and it's not too childish to use it for eating now.

He lifted the spoon in his hand slightly and said, "Eat a little."

Some wheat kernels were added to the porridge, and when it was broken between the teeth, there was a hint of wheat fragrance. Lai Zongxian finally did not resist. This time, the nanny was happy. The boss ate two bowls of porridge for the first time since he was ill.

During this period, Lai Yusheng has been quietly looking through the surface to see what is wrong with his brother, except for the gap in the ear and the scratch on the forehead, the most serious thing is the incision on the arm where the stitches have just been removed. He handed the empty bowl to the son behind, and turned He turned his face and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Deliberate concealment will always reveal many details. In Lai Yusheng's eyes, his brother subconsciously covered his abdomen. He went to pull his brother's clothes and was held down.

"Let me see."

Subconsciously felt that these wounds would make him look useless, Lai Zongxian stubbornly didn't want his brother to see it, and said, "It's nothing to see."

Lai Yusheng didn't speak and looked at each other. The two of them were in a deadlock. Lai Zongxian got the advantage just now, and slowly moved his face closer to his younger brother. The younger brother turned his face away, but he didn't completely avoid it. He kissed his forehead and looked at people. Still not hiding, he was about to slowly hold his brother's hand in his palm, but this time the little ancestor withdrew his hand.

"If you don't show it, you will accept it." Lai Yusheng stood up and took a step back, and said, "See what else you can do with yourself."

Lai Zongxian opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he could only shake his head with a smile. He stood up and walked in front of his younger brother, and took his hand to feel inside the clothes. The stitches had just been removed, and the healed incision was slightly raised. He slowly Slowly move his brother's hand to touch there.

The fingertips were a little cold, and they bounced when they touched the knife edge, and the hand retracted reflexively. Lai Zongxian didn't force it, and the brother's hand retracted.

"Look at it after a while, it doesn't look good now."

The younger brother's face was flushed, and his eyebrows began to wrinkle. This was a sign of crying. After seeing Lai Zongxian for more than [-] years, he still wanted to hold his little ancestor's face, but the man turned his head and ran away.

The son kept watching, and when the younger brother ran, he wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Lai Zongxian.
