[Rebirth] A long stream of water
Chapter 26
The next day the two brothers got up early and went to school.
Xiao Ning got up earlier than usual, and the genius was bright, so he finished grooming, tiptoed out of the yard, and went to the breakfast stand at the entrance of the alley to buy breakfast. This place is no different from the garden district in the past. If they take turns cooking breakfast like before, they must get up an hour and a half earlier. Xiao Ning couldn't bear Xiao Yu's hard work, so he decided that they should not make breakfast at home for the time being.
He bought some soy milk, fried dough sticks and steamed stuffed buns and went home. His great-grandmother had already woken up. People often say that she couldn’t sleep in the first 30 years and couldn’t sleep in the next 30 years. Confused, but only when you lie down and close your eyes, those things will gradually become clear.
The old lady was sitting in front of the main room, her eyes were fixed on the locust tree in the courtyard, as if she was missing her old friend.
Xiao Ning strode over and helped her into the house, "Great-grandmother, it's cold outside, let's go in and have breakfast."
The old lady sat on the raised chair, her eyes were still looking out of the door, and she sighed very lightly, "Xiao Ning, my great-grandmother may be going to find your great-grandfather."
Xiao Ning was pouring soy milk into the bowl. Hearing this, his hands shook, and the soy milk spilled out of the bowl and ran to the coffee table. He hurried over to hold his great-grandmother's hand, and said with a smile, "Great-grandmother is still so healthy, sure. If he wants to live to be a hundred years old, my great-grandfather must have hoped so."
The great-grandmother shook her head and looked at him with eyes eroded by the years, "I am only worried about you and Xiao Yu, you are still so young, even if I leave, I will not feel at ease."
"Then great-grandmother don't leave, just watch us grow up." Xiao Ning hugged his great-grandmother's body and said softly.
The old lady patted her great-grandson's thin shoulder and smiled, "Xiao Ning, I like you the most among all the great-grandchildren. You must take good care of Xiaoyu and fulfill your responsibility as an older brother, you know?"
Xiao Ning lowered his head, buried his face in his great-grandmother's cotton coat, and replied in a muffled voice, "Okay."
That year, my parents died in a car accident.
The uncle and the aunt joined forces, claiming that the great-grandmother was old and had been unable to distinguish between personnel and duties, and could not normally perform the duties and obligations of a legal guardian. Therefore, the legal guardian of the Xiao brothers became an uncle. The things that came down became natural, and the great-grandmother was very angry because of this. She saw two 14-year-old children wandering alone, being bullied by their uncle and aunt. They had a heart attack and failed to survive for a month.
Funerals are grand. When the elder dies, if the younger generation makes the funeral more grand, they will be crowned with a promising title and will be praised by others. You see, whoever belongs to the family is so filial, even though their parents are long gone. , but alone made grandma's funeral so good and so on.
At that time Xiao Ning was numb, he hadn't recovered from the reality of his parents leaving, and even the only great-grandmother he was close to was gone.
The world has since become gray and lifeless.
Xiao Yu cried very sad at that time, almost draining all the tears that he would shed for a lifetime at once. Xiao Ning looked at his younger brother numbly, and numbly held his trembling body in his arms. It is indeed sad, but people always have to look forward, it is impossible to indulge in the past blindly, and there is not so much time to grieve, because everything in this world will push you forward, whether you are willing or not. Accept that it is what it is.
When Xiao Yu got up, he saw his brother and his great-grandmother were already eating breakfast at the table. Xiao Yu walked over to sit on the stool, picked up his share and started eating. He looked at his brother with sleepy eyes, "Brother, Didn't you say I got up and cooked breakfast?"
Xiao Ning picked up the bowl and took a sip of soy milk before saying, "It's a bit far from the school, I want you to sleep more."
"No, I go to bed early at night. It's normal to wake up half an hour early in the morning. I'll cook my own breakfast tomorrow. The ones sold outside are not very delicious." Xiao Yu blinked his eyes, thinking that his brother was so early. I just got up to buy breakfast, so I didn't sleep well at all.
Great-grandmother put down her chopsticks and rubbed Xiao Yu's hair with a smile, "Xiao Yu is really a sensible child, great-grandmother hasn't tasted Xiao Yu's handicraft yet."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu smiled embarrassedly, "Great-grandmother, I will cook for you every day from now on, you can't dislike it."
Great-grandmother smiled and nodded, saying that as long as it was made by Xiaoyu, great-grandmother would not dislike it.
After breakfast, the two brothers took their schoolbags and walked to school. There were already many people waiting for the bus at the platform next to the alley entrance. At that time, those who were closer still preferred to ride bicycles. Not to mention the cost of taking the bus, they had to squeeze with others. , It hurts to think about it.
I have to buy two bicycles, this is the decision Xiao Ning made when he finally got off the crowded bus with difficulty.
As soon as he walked to the school gate, he met Jin Feng.
Xiao Yu blushed immediately when he saw him, Xiao Ning glanced at his younger brother, and guessed that Xiao Yu should give the gift away.
Jin Feng greeted first, "Xiao Ning, Xiao Yu, good morning."
"Morning." Xiao Yu waved his hand, his face flushed red.
Xiao Ning nodded to him as a greeting.
"I heard from Xiao Yu that you are going to move, have you moved?" Jin Feng asked as the three walked towards the classroom.
Xiao Yu was standing next to Jin Feng, his brain might not be functioning anymore, so Xiao Ning replied, "I have already moved."
"Then what about your original house?"
Xiao Ning frowned, how could a young master like Jin Feng ask the house to deal with such a boring question, this is obviously not normal, even though he thought so in his heart, his face was relaxed, "I have already rented out that house. "
"So fast?" Jin Feng was a little surprised, and Xiao Ning was also a little surprised by this reaction.
"Yeah, I rented it out to a couple. They just came from out of town and didn't have a house to live in, so I rented out the house to them." Xiao Ning made up nonsense with his eyes open, and his ability to lie became even more extreme.
Just imagine that Xiao Ning and the others just moved yesterday, there is no reason to rent out the house so quickly, Jin Feng was only in his teens at the time, he didn't think about it for a while, he just frowned, as if he was thinking about something .
Xiao Ning didn't care about him, Xiao Yu came back to his senses at this moment and asked, "Senior Jin, what's wrong with you?"
Jin Feng shook his head, "My buddy was kicked out by the family, and now he is looking for a house to live in. He can't go to my house, so he wants to rent a house outside and live first. I think the house in your Huayuan District is not bad. I think I told him to go and see if he was satisfied, but I didn’t expect it to be rented out so soon.”
After hearing this, Xiao Yu said, "Student Jin, in fact, our house doesn't have... um..." Before he finished speaking, his brother covered his mouth, Xiao Ning smiled at Jin Feng, "I'm a little Tell Xiao Yu about it, let's go first." After speaking, he pulled Xiao Yu and left.
The two stopped in a remote place, Xiao Yu looked at him suspiciously, "Brother, why didn't you let me talk just now, you left in such a hurry, I still want to say a few words to Senior Jin. "
Xiao Ning grabbed his shoulder and said solemnly: "Xiao Yu, no matter who asks about our house, they will say that it is rented out, you understand?"
"Did Jin Feng ask the same thing?" Xiao Yu tilted his head.
"Correct!"
"But our house is clearly not rented out, so why lie to others?" Xiao Yu was puzzled.
Xiao Ning stroked his hair, and said with a smile: "Although our house has not been rented out yet, I have already promised others, so I can't rent it to others, otherwise it will be a breach of trust, you know?"
Xiao Yu nodded hurriedly, "I see. If I tell Jin Feng that his friend also likes our house, then it will be difficult for my brother to explain to the previous renter."
"Xiao Yu is really smart." Xiao Ning smiled in satisfaction, guessing that class was about to start, so he let Xiao Yu go.
He didn't know who the person Jin Feng said was looking for a house to live in, but it was his and Xiao Yu's house, and even if it was empty, it couldn't be used by others. There were too many memories about his parents, and The evidence that their family lived together in it, even if it doesn't help, he can't allow outsiders to come in and destroy this beauty.
In a blink of an eye, the college entrance examination came and went away.
The day before the college entrance examination, Xiao Ning called Qin Shu. Qin Shu's voice sounded very normal. Xiao Ning thought that Qin Jin probably hadn't taken any action yet.
Qin Shu curiously asked him what happened to the sudden call.
Xiao Ning smiled and said, "Is your brother in Beijing?"
"I don't think so. I heard that he went to Hangzhou. It seems that something happened to the company there." Although Qin Shu was puzzled, he still answered honestly, and then smiled again: "A Ning, the city has been closed recently. Did you come to see me?"
Xiao Ning's eyebrows twitched, he forgot that Qin Shu is also a very gay guy, so he smiled and said, "I've seen it a few times."
Qin Shu laughed, just by hearing the voice, he could tell how ambiguous his smile was, Xiao Ning pretended not to know anything, and told Qin Shu a few more words: "Your brother will probably come back today, the college entrance examination will be tomorrow , you go to bed early and don't be disturbed by anyone."
Qin Shu agreed with a smile, and had high expectations for the summer vacation after the college entrance examination: "After the exam, I will go to Anning to find you, and then I will live at your house."
"Okay." Xiao Ning smiled with a low eyebrow, "But we moved to live in the small yard of our great-grandmother's house, I hope you like it."
Qin Shu wailed, "A'Ning, don't you know that I've already grown tired of living in a courtyard house?"
"Sorry, I don't know." Xiao Ning replied calmly, and then hung up the phone amid Qin Shu's wailing again.
Xiao Ning got up earlier than usual, and the genius was bright, so he finished grooming, tiptoed out of the yard, and went to the breakfast stand at the entrance of the alley to buy breakfast. This place is no different from the garden district in the past. If they take turns cooking breakfast like before, they must get up an hour and a half earlier.
