To Travel by the Edge of a Creek.

"Brother, you're back Liang Qian saw his brother came back and ran over with the Barbie doll in his hand.

"Are you?" The little girl asked curiously when she found that there was another person behind her brother looking up.

"Come on, call me Brother Ran." Liang Jia pulled his younger sister and introduced her to her.

"Brother Ran, my name is Qianxi, wow, Brother Ran, you look so beautiful." The little girl didn't recognize her birth at all.

"Thank you Sissy," Yan Ran said with a smile as he reached out and touched her head.

"Oh, my son is back." Sun Qing heard the voice and walked out of the room.

"Mom, this is my deskmate, Yan Ran, I was tricked into giving birth to shavings," Liang Jia said jokingly.

"Hello, Auntie," Yan Ran greeted politely.

"Hey, the child looks really good-looking." Sun Qing praised, then thought of her son's nonsense and said lightly: "Don't listen to his nonsense, what kind of peanuts are you planing, you just go back and play, senior high school students are stressed and go back and relax."

"Jiajia is back? Is this a classmate?" An old lady in the courtyard asked with a smile.

"Come back, ma'am"

"Yeah." Yan Ran smiled.

Seeing that Yan Ran was good-looking, Liang Qian clung to him, following him wherever he went, like a small follower and a chatterbox.

"Brother Ranran, look at this." The little girl took out her toy car to play with others, "Woo~~~, hahahaha"

Yan Ran accompanied the little girl to play childish games that her brother never played with her, and asked her how old she was and what grade she was in by the way.

"I'm six years old this year, and I'm in the first grade," Liang Qian said, throwing herself on him.

This kind of thing depends on the person. If it was Shang Ning, she would not be like this. She would definitely punish him and ask him why with homework, forcing Shang Ning to be afraid of her.

Yan Ran just half hugged her like that and listened to what she said that didn't make sense.

Liang Jia helped his mother to pack things, and Sun Qing saw her little daughter's nympho face while packing her things, and couldn't help but think, "Could it be that nympho can still be inherited?"

Alas, her little daughter has been in control of her appearance since she was a child. When she was three or four years old, she took her to her eldest cousin's wedding. When she saw her cousin's husband's appearance, she cried and refused to let her cousin marry. She pulled her mother and asked, "Mom, why is it so beautiful? Shouldn’t you marry a good-looking person? I’m so angry.” Sun Qing pulled away her ignorant daughter in embarrassment; she made various complaints about her second cousin’s appearance and felt that her second cousin’s eyes were too blind, so she said depressedly, “ Alas, how can a flower be planted on cow dung, how can a swan see a toe?", her mother gave her a wink and said, "Your aunt is here, don't talk about it", the child turned the small bench and turned around He continued to mutter in a low voice, and since then the name of the little poisonous tongue has spread among the relatives. Whenever they come to family gatherings, the relatives will ask, "Is that Sissy from the old five's family here? That girl can really restrain her mouth, Just like her mother when she was a child..."

Sun Qing doesn't deliberately restrain the child's nature, just let her teach a few words, who didn't grow up like this?When she was young, she was even stronger than her daughter. She was a good fighter, and she could go up to the sky. There were many things she couldn't get used to. She wanted to punish evil and promote good to be a heroine. Her husband's gentle personality and more than ten years of ups and downs have almost smoothed all her edges and corners, and she has also changed from a young girl to a sophisticated woman who speaks decent words.

After packing up everything, they walked to the passenger terminal and took a bus back to Liang Jia's hometown.

Liang Jia's hometown is a small village [-] kilometers away from Jiangcheng. There are no mountains or water, and the endless farmland is real.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the sun had already set in the west, and the sky was dyed colorful by clouds, and three or two little birds were returning to their nests

Liang Jia greeted and talked with his mother and the people playing on the roadside in the village. Liang Qian couldn't wait any longer, so she took Yan Ran's hand and went to her home first.

Liang Jia's house in his hometown is a small building with one or two floors, with white walls and big red tiles, and the yard is full of flowers, plants and fruit trees.

"Father" Liang Qian jumped on her father when she saw her.

"Baby..." The man picked up his daughter and kissed her before realizing that there was another person, "This is?"

"This is classmate Liang Jiajia, brother Yan Ran," the little girl struggled to get down and introduced to her father.

"Hello, Uncle." Yan Ran greeted politely.

"Student Jiajia, come and quickly enter the room," Liang Yueting greeted warmly.

Then he was led by Liang Xila to visit each room.

"Mom and Dad's room is on the first floor, Qianqian's room is also on the first floor, and my brother is on the second floor alone," Liang Qian introduced one by one.

The children's room is pink, with a big brown teddy bear on the pink floor, and some small toy rabbits on the bed, Yan Ran's heart is filled with pink bubbles.

Compared with the little girl's room, Liang Jia's room is much simpler. There is only one bed and one wardrobe. It seems that there is still a difference between a son and a daughter.

Of course, Liang Qian didn't think so. She felt that her parents were always biased, and she gave her brother all the good things, such as IQ. Why her brother was No.1 every time, but her grades were so-so. Blame her mother for making her stupid.

Finally, one big and one small stopped under the vines on the balcony on the second floor. The two leaned on the railing and looked towards the street. Liang Jia and his mother's voice came from there.

"Brother" Liang Qian shouted excitedly.

Liang Jia got closer and completely appeared in their line of sight. The man downstairs looked up at the person upstairs, smiled and waved.

Sun Qing followed behind with a smile on her face, and said to the three children, "I'll cook something delicious for you tonight."

"Mom, I want to eat hot pot." Liang Qian grabbed the railing and made a request.

"Okay," Sun Qing readily agreed.

"Wow wow wow, I ate hot pot today" the child clapped his hands happily

Mother Sun and Father Liang sent three children who wanted to help out to play. They were preparing hot pot soup and various dishes in the kitchen.

The three children went upstairs to play.

"Can you play table tennis?" Liang Jia asked Yan Ran with a smile when he saw the table tennis table in his living room.

"A little bit." Yan Ran walked over and picked up the racket to play with.

"Let's play." Liang Jia picked up the racket and walked to the other side.

"Okay" After saying that, Yan Ran threw the ball with his left hand and held the racket with his right hand to serve the ball flat.

"Not bad." Liang Jia caught the ball with his racket and hit it.

Liang Qian stood aside and watched the ball fly back and forth, playing ping-pong for more than ten minutes without a winner.

"At the same table, how can you be a little bit, you can even play games" Liang Jia said after taking the spinning ball.

Yan Ran was a little embarrassed, "I played games when I was young, but I didn't play much after that."

"Watching the ball" Liang Jia exerted all his strength.

Yan Ran nimbly caught the fast and ruthless chop, and slapped the ball with a backhand.

Liang Jia took a step back and quickly caught the ball and hit it quickly.

"Brother Ran, isn't my brother a little powerful?" Liang Qian shouted to Yan Ran.

"It's very good," Yan Ran replied with a smile, and then asked Liang Jia, "How many years have you played at the same table?"

"As long as I can remember, my father and brother have been playing this game," Liang Qian answered first.

"What's so fun about shooting a racket back and forth?" Liang Qian didn't understand.

"Haha, I started playing at a very young age. I was forced to play with him by my dad. I thought it was quite fun to play." Liang Jia laughed twice, and slapped a ball.

"I was also forced to learn by my mother when I was a child." Yan Ran recalled his original intention of learning to play table tennis.

When he was a child, his mother forced him to learn various skills, such as taekwondo, dancing, writing calligraphy and playing table tennis.

Now only taekwondo and dancing are left.

"Then we both have the same disease."

The two of them said that, and they didn't show mercy when they played.

Liang Qian shook her head back and forth following the ball, and the two played faster and faster. Liang Qian really couldn't keep up with the speed and stopped watching the ball, and ran to play under the basket by herself.

When it was almost time to eat, Liang's father yelled upstairs: "Children, come down to eat."

"Come on", Liang Qian ran downstairs impatiently.

"You won haha" Liang Jia stopped the shot and said, he just overshot that ball.

"You let me go!" Yan Ran picked up the bouncing ball and put it on the stage, the man obviously let the water go.

"Where is it? I'm not as skilled as others. Let's go, let's eat." Liang Jia raised his eyebrows and smiled, picked up Yan Ran and walked downstairs.

When they went down, Liang's father was coming out of the kitchen with a pot

Yan Ran hurried to pick it up.

"No, no, no," Liang's father quickly put the pot on the dining table

Liang Qian had already chosen the best seat and sat down, staring at the red oily mouth in the pot and moving.

There are various dishes on the table, such as Flammulina velutipes, lettuce, slices of tender cabbage, vermicelli, etc., which are placed on the table one by one, with the water from washing the vegetables still sticking to them, just waiting to be eaten up.

"Just treat it as your own home, don't be restrained." Sun Qing walked over with a smile holding chopsticks.

"Don't see the outsider," Liang Jia also echoed his mother.

"Okay." Yan Ran smiled.

"Go wash your hands and eat." Liang Yueting shouted to them when he walked to the dining table with a bottle of white wine.

The two went to wash their hands.

After washing his hands, Yan Ran sat down next to Liang Jia.

"Come and taste your uncle's cooking." Sun Qing warmly filled Yan Ran with meat in a colander.

"No, no, I'll do it myself, thank you, Auntie." Yan Ran couldn't shirk, but Mama Liang's hospitality was so hospitable, so she took the bowl.

"How about trying it? Beef hot pot, the meat was cut at the market today, it's fresh." Liang Yueting said after taking a sip of his wine

Yan Ran took a piece of chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, praising "It's delicious, uncle is good at cooking"

"Hey, eat more if it tastes good." Liang Yueting laughed happily when he heard other people's compliments.

"I think it's delicious too," that child Liang Qian opened her mouth and said.

"See, everyone says your cooking is delicious, and you will be the one to cook in the future." Sun Qing teased her husband.

"Look, look, she's tricking me into cooking again," Liang Yueting said to the children with a smile.

"Hahahahahahaha" the whole family laughed.

"How old is it?" Sun Qing stood up and put vegetables and other things into the pot.

"Eighteen," Yan Ran replied with a smile.

"Well, one year older than Jiajia, you can drink at eighteen, would you like some?" Liang Yueting asked while shaking the bottle.

"Ah, no more." Yan Ran was taken aback, and waved her hand to refuse.

"Hey, you're just messing around, can the child control the drinking?" Sun Qing said angrily when she heard her husband induce the child to drink.

"Don't pay attention to him, he just wants to find someone to drink all day long." Sun Qing turned her head to tell Yan Ran not to take offense.

"Are you an adult?" Liang Yueting smiled and didn't think there was anything wrong with him.

"Are you scared, hahaha?" Liang Jia whispered to Yan Ran, "My dad is good at everything, but this problem of drinking can't be changed. Every time he comes back, he goes to the street and gets drunk. When no one is with him He can drink half a catty of wine by himself.”

Yan Ran smiled and said: "I have some good wine at home, next time I come to bring some to my uncle."

"All right, all right" Liang Yueting's eyes lit up when he heard the good wine.

"Don't take it with you, leave the good wine for your father." Sun Qing felt that it was inappropriate.

"It's okay, auntie, my dad also likes to drink, the family has so much wine that he can open a winery," Yan Ran explained.

"Then when will I have to invite your father for a drink?" Liang Yueting laughed.

"Uncle Xing," Yan Ran said.

"Hey, I heard you guys playing table tennis upstairs today, how is your game?" Liang Yueting asked after taking a sip of his wine.

"Okay, Yan Ran played well, Dad has time some other day and you two can learn from each other." Liang Jia patted his dad on the back.

"No, Liang Jia also played very well," Yan Ran replied modestly.

"Oh, it's great that Liang Jia has agreed, then I have to compete with you." Liang Yueting said with a smile.

"I hope uncle will show mercy when the time comes," Yan Ran replied.

"Are you a native of Jiangcheng, right? My accent sounds a little like it." Sun Qing interrupted after listening to their conversation.

"Yeah." Yan Ran nodded.

"What do mom and dad do?" Sun Qing continued to ask.

"Mom, are you checking your household registration?" Liang Jia said helplessly.

"You child, let's ask." Sun Qing, who was told by her son, was a little embarrassed

"It's all right." Yan Ran said with a smile, "My parents are in business."

"Are you in business? Are you usually busy?"

"good"

"Oh, it's not easy to do business." Sun Qing should have thought of something and said with emotion.

Big business is troublesome, small business is laborious.

"Nothing is easy, nothing is easy." Liang Yueting disagreed with his wife's statement.

"My parents used to be in business too, but they lost money, haha." Liang Jia explained his family's situation to his deskmate.

"It's normal to lose money in business," Yan Ran said.

Liang Jia saw that his tablemate didn't pick up much food, so he took a spoon to help his tablemate put some meat in a bowl, "Don't look outside."

"Thank you." Yan Ran helped the bowl and chopsticks, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the meat and started to eat.

He wanted to eat it a long time ago, but he was too embarrassed to pick it up. After all, it was not his own home and he was a little restrained.

Liang Jia smiled satisfied when he saw his tablemate eating seriously.

"Brother Ran", Liang Qian thought too when she saw her brother pick up vegetables for Yan Ran, so she stood up and took a spoon to put a lot of meat and vegetables for Yan Ran.

"The smelly girl knows how to take care of others," Liang Yueting joked.

"Ah, thank you Sissy," Yan Ran took it flattered.

"Daddy for you"

"Mom for you"

"Brother here for you"

The child is quite fair!

The child can't eat much, so when he is full, he will turn on the TV to watch

A mythical love story in ancient costume with five-cent special effects was shown on TV, and the children were fascinated by it.

"Last week, I heard that someone died in the 25th," Sun Qing said while sandwiching vegetables.

"Dead? Who?" Liang Jia asked curiously.

"A girl committed suicide by jumping off a building. She said she was raped by a teacher, and the school is still shirking responsibility. Alas, what is wrong with the world?" Sun Qing lamented.

"Oh..." Liang Yueting also sighed.

Adults have seen too many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, and they know that they are powerless, so they have heard it, and they will no longer behave like children with an angry face and remember it for several years.

Liang Jiayan looked at each other, there was some grief and indignation in each other's eyes, and finally ate in silence.

After dinner, Liang Jiayan went to the balcony on the second floor.

The night breeze was cool, and the two leaned on the railing to look at the sky. A bright moon hung high in the deep sky, and a star was with them all year round.

"The students in our school are lucky, the school can still guarantee the rights and interests of the students," Yan Ran said softly.

No matter whether the school actively or passively understands the situation, it resolves the potential danger promptly and decisively, and gives the students a sense of peace of mind.

"There are some things we can't solve. What we can do now is to protect ourselves and the people around us." He intended to comfort Yan Ran and let him not think too much.

"Well, I know, it's just a little weak." Yan Ran hoarsely said the "powerless"

He looked up at the bright moon, and the people next to him looked at him, their eyes were bright.

In the end, Liang Jia touched his shoulder, "It's okay, it will be fine, everything will be fine", his tone became firmer every sentence.

"Jiajia", Sun Qing came upstairs with a thin quilt.

"mom"

"Aunt"

When they heard the sound, they turned and went back to the living room.

"They're both boys, how about you two sharing the same room?" Sun Qing asked for their opinion.

No one came to the house for a long time, and it would be troublesome to tidy up the empty room, and Sun Qing didn't want to do it anymore, so let's just make do with it.

"Yes" they both replied in unison.

"Okay, I'll make the bed for you, but there are new toothbrushes in the toilet," Sun Qing urged.

"I see, thank you, Auntie," Yan Ran replied.

"Hahaha, it's Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow," Liang Jia said with a smile.

"There is also National Day," Yan Ran added.

"What a coincidence," the two sighed.

The dull atmosphere just now was swept away with laughter.

"It's so late, go brush your teeth, wash your face and get ready for bed," Sun Qing said as she came out of the room.

"Okay, mom, you should go to bed early too." Liang Jia smiled and pushed his mother downstairs.

After the two washed up, they went to Liang Jia's room to get ready for bed.

The two boys were quite shy, and they fell asleep without taking off their clothes.

Liang Jia sleeps very well, hugging a corner of the quilt without moving all night

Yan Ran lay next to Liang Jia, opened his eyes and looked at the man for a long time after he fell asleep, he raised his hand to touch the tip of the man's nose, tapped his hand lightly and immediately withdrew, seeing that the man didn't respond, he secretly laughed, no How long he fell asleep too.

The moonlight shone on the bed, and the two teenagers slept facing each other, as harmonious as twins.
