Mint-Stained Shirt

"Don't cry." Xiao Yu'an picked up the roll of paper on the bedside table, pulled a lot at once, wiped the back of his hand, and pulled another roll to wipe Mingshu's face.

Ming Shu didn't move, just let him fiddle with it, those round eyes looked at him the whole time, without blinking.

When Xiao Yuan carried Mingshu down from the tree, he found that Mingshu's eyelashes were long and curled up, like a doll.This time when she cried, it was more like a doll.Xiao Yu'an wiped Mingshu's face clean, helped him blow his nose for the first time, threw away the wet paper, and said casually, "Did your mother cut your eye hair when you were just born? "

When Xiao Jincheng was still a milk baby, my sister-in-law told him and Xiao Muting, I wanted to cut your eye hair when you were born, and the new ones will be long and curly, very beautiful, but the elders and the second are not allowed, It is said that every family of boys has such curly eye hair.

After the sister-in-law finished speaking, she started to think about Xiao Jincheng, and said mysteriously, why don't you guys give me a chance, and we cut Jincheng's eye hair?

The sister-in-law failed in the end, the uncle came back and did not let the sister-in-law do anything.

Xiao Yu'an was quite impressed by this incident. Mingshu's eye hair is long and curly, so it must have been cut.

"Ah?" Mingshu raised his hand to touch his eyelashes after hearing this, looking a bit disappointed, and his voice became softer, "No."

If you don't have it, you don't have it, Xiao Yu'an doesn't know why he buried his head down again, it's hard to guess what the kid is thinking.

Mingshu then said: "My mother doesn't like me, she never hugged me, and never came back to see me. She won't cut my eye hair."

When hearing Mingshu's words, Xiao Yu'an felt that Mingshu's unhappiness was about to condense into a solid body, and the mist shone on the hospital bed.After a few seconds, the fog is still there.

Xiao Yu'an hugged Ming Shu and patted his back, "Your mother must be very busy, she doesn't have time, so she didn't come to see you."

This is really not just talking about fooling children, Xiao Yuan's own mother is a busy person, and the number of visits to him is less than that of his father. This time, when he went to grandpa's house, his father picked him up and dropped him off, and there was no sign of his mother.But as long as the mother is free, she will come to accompany him and Xiao Jinlan, and take the four children out for a ride.

He felt that Mingshu's mother couldn't come back because she was too busy.

Ming Shu nestled in his arms and said nothing, as if he was comforted.He won't talk about this topic anymore, he really doesn't understand what the Ming family is like, and he will talk about it later when he asks his grandfather.

Mingshu's grandfather, Minghan, came back, and when he saw the beads on Mingshu's wrist, he made a serious face.Mingshu was frightened and quickly hid his hands behind his back.

Xiao Yuan stood up and explained that he brought it back from the seaside, it was not worth much, and all the children in the compound had it.Mr. Ming nodded, thanked him, and said that children don't need to wear fancy things, and they don't need to give them away next time.

Xiao Yuan said yes on the face and was very polite, but he was very conflicted in his heart.He has seen many old men like Ming Han with such a rigid talk, so he is not afraid of him.In fact, most of the elderly cadres in the compound are like Ming Han, and there are very few people like his grandfather who are happy all day long.He never felt bothered by those rigid old men, and greeted them politely when he saw them, occasionally bowing or something.This was the first time he felt disgusted with the other party.

The source of the emotion is Ming Shu, a child who doesn't know him very well.

Mingshu still had his hands behind his back, and the look in his eyes was quite frightening.Xiao Yu'an could tell that Ming Shu was afraid that Mr. Ming would ask him to take off the bracelet.

The child's chest bulged and bulged, and he made a whining sound, which was very soft and muffled. It wasn't the kind of delicate voice he heard before, it was pure fear.

The balance in Xiao Yu'an's heart tilted a lot towards Ming Shu.

Ming Shu glanced at his grandfather, then moved his butt to the side of the bed until it stuck to Xiao Yu'an's arm, hiding it uselessly.

This matter has not developed to a bad point, Ming Han is old-fashioned, there is a characteristic of old-fashioned people, good face, pay attention to family ugliness, and do not teach children in front of outsiders.It's not a family scandal for Mingshu to receive a gift, Minghan said a few words and passed.

Not long after, the doctor came to take a look, and explained that I can go back tonight and come back tomorrow morning to see the situation, but it is recommended to stay in the hospital for one night, so that if something happens, it can be dealt with in time.

Ming Han decided to let Ming Shu stay overnight, Xiao Yuan stayed with him in the ward until after 4 o'clock, and then he was ready to leave.Mingshu held his finger, but couldn't bear it.

The gift and the cry in the afternoon brought the distance between the two of them closer.Xiao Yu'an originally thought that Mingshu was clingy and delicate, but now he felt that Mingshu was like a piece of candy that couldn't be torn off.He is not a relative of Mingshu, so he can't stay here to accompany the bed, he has to go back to eat, and make an appointment to play badminton with Xiao Muting in the evening.

Mingshu leaned on him again, wrapping his arms around his waist, staring at him from below.

In the Chinese class, the teacher read an excellent composition, and someone wrote that so-and-so's eyes could speak.At the time, he felt that this description was a bit ridiculous. What can the eyes say? The eyes can talk, so why is the mouth long?

But now he felt that the classmate was right.Someone's eyes really do speak.Isn’t Mingshu just saying—brother, don’t go back?

But he had been used to Mingshu all afternoon, the gift was delivered, and the paper gun was also agreed to be made together. Xiao Jincheng told several jokes, and he had never coaxed anyone like this before.He has to go.

Mingshu hugged her for a while and let go.He felt that his brother seemed a little unhappy.

"Brother, can I go play with you tomorrow?" He asked cautiously.

Xiao Jinlan is going to take piano lessons tomorrow, and Xiao Yuan is also planning to go to the place where the class is held and enroll in a suitable interest class.

"You still need an infusion tomorrow," he said.

"Then what if I don't lose tomorrow?"

"talk later."

When Xiao Yu'an came home, he had almost finished his meal.There are no such complicated rules in their family. They serve meals when the time comes, without waiting for anyone, and go to the kitchen to eat leftovers by themselves when they come back late. It sounds a bit unkind, but it is free.Xiao Jincheng usually eats leftovers, because he has no sense of time when he goes out crazy.This time it was Xiao Yu'an's turn, Xiao Jincheng was elated.

As the sun set, the sky seemed to be on fire, and the heat hadn't faded from the earth yet, Xiao Muting was already urging him with a racket.

The compound holds youth games every summer, which is quite a big battle.Xiao Yuan and Xiao Muting have been winning badminton doubles championships since three years ago, and this time they are also aiming for the championship.

When the two of them talked about this matter with others, they both had a very indifferent attitude, but they were sincere in their hearts, and they had a strong determination to win and lose, and they couldn't lose.

At the beginning of the fight, Huoshaoyun was burning vigorously, and when the last bit of strength was finished, the sky was already full of stars.Because of Ming Shu's matter, Xiao Yu'an had nowhere to use his energy today, so he just vented it on the court.Xiao Muting was a bit embarrassed by his smash, and in the second half of the fight, he also went into a frenzy, until both sides were exhausted.

"Where did you go this afternoon?" Xiao Muting asked lying on the ground.

Xiao Yu'an didn't answer, but asked someone else, "Have you ever seen a child who didn't get a gift for the first time until he was 5 years old?"

"Ah?" Xiao Muting sat up and thought for a while, "That kid from the Ming family? Isn't it?"

It was easier for the two of them to communicate than with Xiao Jincheng, and they basically understood after a few words.Xiao Yu'an hummed, "His family is strictly controlled."

"Then Xiao Jincheng should be thrown over there." Xiao Muting was annoyed with his younger brother, "Come here for Mingshu."

Xiao Yu'an smiled, "You should be unhappy if it's really changed."

The evening wind in summer is blowing comfortably, and one or two mosquitoes are flying under the orange street lamps.The two brothers walked back after resting enough, and the first thing they did when they got home was to open the refrigerator.

Xiao Muting took a stick of mung bean paste, Xiao Yuan suddenly wanted to eat mint ice, but he couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

He doesn't like to eat mint ice, but for some reason, he drank mint soda while swimming yesterday, and he still wants to eat mint ice lollies after playing today.

"Here." Xiao Muting helped find the last piece of mint ice, and said, "Don't you like this kind of ice?"

He didn't explain, he tore it open and went to eat in the yard, and when he looked up, he saw twinkling stars.

Mingshu is also looking at the stars.On the top floor terrace of the hospital, the stars are very bright.He liked stars when he was younger, but now he has something more to like.

He looked at the stars for a while, and at the bracelets for a while, and touched them together with a smile.

Bracelets are prettier than stars.

Brothers are better than stars.
