two-way love

Under the still bright light, it can be seen that the flowers and plants in the small yard are just a little bit lush.Fan Jie stood empty-handed at the door, remembering that Dean Feng had mentioned to him before that his two "new fathers" had relatively good backgrounds, so let him be obedient and absolutely not be willful.

Fan Jie didn't have a very obvious understanding of "youyou". He suppressed his breath and looked up from the three-step staircase at the door to the small balcony on the third floor—he always thought that "youyou" meant that they not only had a car and Fang can still let him go to school to study...

Lin An turned to Fan Jie while pressing the doorknob, "Leave the things in the room and leave it alone, and we'll talk about it when we come back at night. Do you think it's okay?"

Fan Jie nodded.

"Come in and change your clothes first, sit and wait for a while, when your father Wu comes back, we will put the documents away." Lin An put the suitcase in the living room, "A few days ago I bought a few according to the standard body shape of your age. A new dress, go upstairs and try it on."

Fan Jie was surprised: "New clothes?..."

"Well, I was going to try to see if it fits after you wash up at night." Lin An carried the suitcase upstairs and motioned Fan Jie to follow him, "but your grandma and the others are going to see you tonight, and now this suit It seems that there is no problem, but your grandma's eyes are sharp, you should wear new ones, so as not to let their minds diverge and think too much."

Fan Jie followed him obediently, and remained silent for a few seconds before replying, "Yes."

"No, this is the room arranged for you." Lin An pushed open the door of the penultimate room in the corridor on the second floor, and turned on the light, "The view here is very wide, and you can see magnolias in the small park from the window Tree."

Fan Jie stood at the door and looked around.The room is very spacious, the floor-to-ceiling windows are obscured by curtains printed with bamboo leaves. There is a bed in the room, which is bigger than the three small beds in the orphanage. The bed is only covered with sheets. Against the wall, the desk and bookshelf are empty.

Spacious and deserted.

Lin An opened the closet: "The quilt and pillow are in the closet, take it out by yourself at night... Come, this set of clothes. The door on the right is your own bathroom, go and change it."

Fan Jie took the shirt he handed over. The fabric was very comfortable to the touch. He rubbed it with his fingers unconsciously, feeling a little nervous in his heart.

"Go."

After Lin An reminded him again, Fan Jie carefully opened the bathroom door with his clothes in his hands.

The cotton shirt is very comfortable on the upper body. It is the first time for Fan Jie to wear this kind of real "new clothes". Looking at himself in the half-length mirror on the bathroom wall, he always feels a little unreal...

Lin An heard no movement outside, waited for a few more minutes, and knocked lightly on the door: "Fan Jie, is it ready?"

After several seconds, there was a vague answer from inside.

"Come out if you have changed."

Fan Jie opened the door with a blushing face, clutched the side of his trousers with one hand, and stammered: "I, I'm sorry...it... seems a bit big."

Lin An laughed: "It's okay, I'll get you a belt, you come out first, let me have a look."

Lin An guessed that Fan Jie was thinner than the old clothes before, and asked Song Yihong to choose a smaller size. Although the shirt was a little looser, it still fit well. Unfortunately, he overestimated the waist size. When wearing a belt buckle, the waist of the trousers was tightened , a narrow circle, like a little girl who went on a diet to lose weight.

Lin An pondered what supplements to buy, so as not to let the child fail to keep up when he grew up.

Wu Chenfang stood at the door, knocked on the door twice, and asked, "Are you dressed?"

Lin An said: "Well, the waistline of the trousers is too big and needs to be changed. Now use the belt to deal with it."

"Let's do this now, lest we run out of time for a while. My mother called me when the car was parked and said that their side is almost ready." He came over and took Lin An, and patted the other hand Looking around Fan Jie's shoulder, "I seem to be more refreshed after changing clothes. Yihong has a good vision, and I will praise him in a few days."

"I guess he asked Liu Xue for help. It's better to thank Xiao Liu than to thank him. Anyway, they will be a family sooner or later."

"Xiao Liu still doesn't know the relationship between his sister and Yihong. Yihong told me not to startle the snake, so as not to affect his performance."

"This guy... By the way, did Mom tell us to bring something back?"

"Yes, I have."

"What to bring? I'll get it."

"Take Fan Jie."

"..."

Turning into the community before the evening rush hour, Wu Chenfang parked the car in the underground parking lot.The three of them came out of the parking lot together, and when they turned the corner, they saw Mother Lin standing outside the door waiting for them to come.

Lin An shouted from a distance: "Mom!"

Mother Lin turned her head and saw them, she didn't intend to come, she just raised her chin and said calmly, "Are you back?"

When they walked in, Mother Lin stared at Fan Jie and frowned, "Which child is this?"

It was the first time for Fan Jie to face a senior woman with such a bright image, and his joints became stiff.

"Well, his name is Fan Jie, but we will take him to change his name tomorrow." Lin An put his hand on Fan Jie's shoulder, signaling him not to be nervous, "Fan Jie, this is your grandma Wen."

Fan Jie hesitated and called softly: "Wen, Grandma Wen."

Mother Lin responded indifferently, and just asked Lin An: "How old is this child?"

"12 years old."

"Hmm..." Mama Lin paused for a moment, then let out a "tsk", the wrinkles between her brows did not loosen but deepened, "It's so big..."

Fan Jie pursed his lips slightly and did not speak, his palms began to sweat, and his heart felt a little cold.He has already felt that his grandma doesn't seem to like him very much...

The half-closed door was pushed open, and Madam Wu leaned out: "Sister Ah Wen, have they arrived yet?...Hey, isn't it all here? If you don't come in like this, what are you doing standing at the door?"

Mother Lin looked back unhappy: "Xiaoqin...their child is a bit older..."

Fan Jie felt as if he had been thrown into a glass of sparkling water, and it was sour and hot in an instant. He turned his eyes down and looked at his shoes.

The clothes and trousers are new, but the shoes are still the ones he brought out from the orphanage. They are extremely old. If you don’t look carefully, you won’t notice them. Once you notice them, you will immediately find how mismatched they are with the trousers... …

Mother Lin sighed: "Hey, I can't use those weaves anymore, let's tear them down and beat them again..."

Mama Wu laughed: "That's fine, anyway, it's still far away from autumn! - Come in quickly, oops, I haven't turned off the fire yet!"

Fan Jie raised his head slightly: "...?"

Lin An regretted: "Mom, look, what I said earlier - you started work before you know your age, you are too impatient."

"Who knew you would bring back such a big child!" Mother Lin gave him a blank look, then turned around and went into the room and asked, "I'm not used to pronouncing the child's old name... What's the new name you came up with? I'll just call that."

Lin An froze for a moment, realized who she was talking about, and said with a dry smile, "Wu Yi, shining brightly."

"Ah Fang's surname?"

"Correct."

"It's fine, it's fine." Mama Wu walked to the sofa, picked up the tape measure, and waved to Fan Jie who was standing beside Lin An, "Come here, Yiyi, grandma will measure your waist and shoulder width."

Fan Jie hesitated and didn't dare to move, Lin An put his palm on his back, and gently pushed it: "Go, grandma is calling you." Then he pulled Wu Chenfang to the kitchen and said, "Mom Qin! Let's help you!"

The two relatively familiar adults left the stage. Fan Jie was so nervous that he was at a loss. He walked over carefully and called softly: "Grandma Wen..."

Mother Lin gave a "hmm" and straightened the soft measure: "Don't move, keep your back straight, and I'll measure it for you."

Fan Jie straightened his back stiffly, letting Mama Lin measure, his sight didn't know where to put it, so he landed on the sofa.

On the off-white fabric sofa is a half-knit sweater with a small neckline and narrow shoulders. It should be prepared for children of a few years old.

"Tsk, you are so skinny..."

Fan Jie came back to his senses, moved his lips a few times, and stopped talking.

"Let Pingping Afang buy more food for you in the future! If you are so thin, you will be malnourished!"

"Fortunately, I bought a lot of threads, and I should be able to weave a few pieces after dismantling them."

"Okay," Lin's mother put away the soft ruler, reached out and touched Fan Jie's head, and said helplessly, "You child, what are you afraid of? Can I still eat you?"

The palm of the adult is dry and warm, like the afternoon sun, driving away the negativity and darkness that has just been bred.

"Are you literate?"

"The teacher has taught it, so I know a little bit."

"Can you play chess? Any kind of chess is fine."

"Uh, no."

"Well, it's okay, you can learn if you don't know. What month is your birthday?"

"In the second half……"

……

Lin An took the onion and peeled off the film while hiding at the kitchen door to observe the movement of the living room.

After Wu Chenfang cut the garlic and ginger, he didn't see the green onion in the surrounding area. He looked up and searched, and saw Lin An's worried look, and laughed: "Lin An."

Lin An turned around upon hearing the sound.

Wu Chenfang came over: "Give me the green onion, if you are worried, go out and have a look, you will tear the white of the green onion..."

Lin An cleared his throat: "No, no, I think they get along pretty well. I'm just worried that my mother won't want to see Fan Jie."

Ms. Wu put the lid on the pot, turned up the heat, and said with a smile, "Sister Ah Wen doesn't like children. She just thinks it's a pity——I only knitted a little hat two days ago. It's very cute. I'm very happy, it seems that I don't need it now...Pingping, don't blame her."

Lin An muttered: "I can blame her so much?"

"Anyway, there will be opportunities in the future." Wu Chenfang put the glass bowl with seasonings over.

Lin An: "..."

Lin An: "Huh?"

Wu Chenfang: "Huh? Isn't it right?"

Mama Wu showed off her skills and set up a table full. Mama Lin couldn't help but be speechless when she came over and looked at it: "Ah Qin, you... don't need so many."

"Isn't it because I don't know what Yiyi likes to eat? I just made some of any flavor." Mother Wu put the sand pot containing mushroom stewed chicken in the middle, raised her head and smiled kindly at Fan Jie, "What does Yiyi like to eat?" Just tell grandma, grandma will make it for you next time you come back."

Fan Jie looked at a table of colorful and various dishes, and heard the new nickname they gave him, his face quickly turned red, and it was hard for him to say any polite rejection, so he could only hem and haw his answer.

Mother Lin didn't like the word "Jie" very much. Since she had already given the child a new name, she shouldn't continue to call it the original one, so she directly ordered Lin An and the others to learn to change it in advance.

Lin An coughed twice, feeling a little embarrassed by the sudden request, but she couldn't back down under the gaze of Lin's mother, so she asked Fan Jie, "Fan Jie, we won't call you by that name anymore. , call you Wu Yi... okay?"

Fan Jie was taken aback, he didn't expect the question of the name to come so quickly.

His original name was not actually "Fan Jie", the name "Fan Jie" accompanied him for five years.

"Hmm... is that okay?" Lin An asked again cautiously.

A trace of disappointment flashed through Fan Jie's heart - now the lifespan of this name has also come to an end.

He closed his eyes, pursed his lips and nodded slightly, then raised his head and barely raised the corners of his mouth, showing a shallow smile.

Lin An tentatively asked, "Wu Yi?"

He paused, and responded softly: "...um."

From now on, his time belonging to "Fan Jie" is completely over.
