Laughing astray

The Xiaopang Baozi shop is not big, but it is stuck in the fast lunch time, and there are still quite a lot of people.Cong Xiao walked around to find an empty seat. The seat was a bit off. He was afraid that Yan Zihan would not be able to see him when he came in, so he deliberately stretched his long legs out of the table. His legs, but with such long legs, he still has the confidence that anyone can see them at a glance.

It is true that Yan Zihan saw Cong Xiaoyi as soon as he came in, but he didn't see him until he saw his legs, it was because the pink socks he was wearing were still so eye-catching.

"Didn't go home yesterday?" Yan Zihan sat down on the seat, "The things will be delivered later." He said and stuffed another 100 yuan into Cong Xiao's hand.

"I've been back." Cong Xiao looked at the money Yan Zihan handed over. "What are you doing?" Cong Xiao put a handful of money on the table. "Why are you useless?"

"Buy me a cup of coffee later," Yan Zihan said.

Cong Xiao clicked his tongue. "Eat a drawer of buns with a cup of coffee?"

"People have to experience different lives in life, and the first thing is to start with coffee and steamed stuffed buns." Yan Zihan said with a smile.

The waiter just brought steamed buns and porridge, and Yan Zihan took two small plates. "Want vinegar?"

"Come on, some chili oil." Cong Xiao pushed his small plate over.

"In this way, you can still taste the original taste?" Yan Zihan put the seasoning on for him, "You really look like my friend."

"I'll let you try it later. Shrimp steamed stuffed buns are the most delicious. His ingredients are really good, and the shrimp inside are bigger than others." Cong Xiaoyi couldn't wait to stuff one into his mouth.

"Have you eaten as a family?"

"No, I've eaten at two or three restaurants, and his home made the best ones. I love shrimp, and I can eat them as soon as I eat them."

Cong Xiao dipped the steamed stuffed bun with some of the seasoning on his plate, and then put it on Yan Zihan's plate. "Try it, if it's not good, I'll buy you two cups of coffee."

Yan Zihan picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth. It was really fragrant, and he could eat big shrimps with one bite. The vinegar and chili were not sour or spicy.

"Is it delicious?" Cong Xiao asked.

Yan Zihan feels that Cong Xiaoyi is a bit like a child waiting for praise, his eyes are full of little stars that say "Praise me quickly, come on".He reached out and touched Cong Xiao's head lightly, "It's delicious."

Cong Xiao picked up a bun, lowered his head and didn't speak, just at that moment, he felt something was about to come out of his heart, the bun was well wrapped, and there was a gap suddenly, and then his eyes were a little acidic.

Seeing that Cong Xiaoyi lowered his head and did not speak, Yan Zihan was about to say something when he saw a small teardrop dripping onto the plate in front of Cong Xiaoyi's eyes.

Cong Xiaoyi was also frightened by his tears, he didn't want to cry.But the instruction to shed tears has crossed the brain and triggered the lacrimal glands to allow the tears to fall on their own.He has always built a wall in his heart, which cannot be broken by thunder or rain, but Yan Zihan's gentle touch just now floated around his heart like a small spring breeze. Such a small wind But there was a crack in the wall of my heart.

That secret that has been buried all this time, that secret that even Wang Bin doesn't know, those unbearable childhoods, those damn things that happened all of them.He wanted to tell the person in front of him very much at this moment, but he didn't know why.Is it because you are not familiar with it yet?There is a saying that it is better to tell a secret to a stranger than to an acquaintance.

What about Yan Zihan?

stranger?

But the two of them are already sitting and eating together.

Fan friends?

That's not right, it's just eating, but it's still very unfamiliar.

A bunch of messy thoughts appeared one by one in Cong Xiao's mind like a bullet screen.

A hand reached out and took a napkin. "Wait and wipe it when you're done crying." Yan Zihan's voice was very magnetic, and he slammed into Cong Xiaoyi's heart word by word.The fingers are also very beautiful, slender and white.

Cong Xiaoyi felt like a neurotic, picked up a bun and stuffed it in his mouth, tears really gushed out like a bank burst.

Fuck you.

As if going all out, Cong Xiaoyi's tears were like a waterfall, and everyone who was eating around looked over.This steamed stuffed bun is not so unpalatable, so why are you still crying?

Yan Zihan wiped his tears with a toilet paper, and said to the people who looked over, "I snatched his buns, and I lost my temper."

"Such a beautiful doll, how can you be a fool." The Sichuan uncle who just sold buns turned his head and looked over, "Hurry up and coax your brother, cry and ask for it."

"Dear brother, don't cry." Yan Zihan comforted him patiently.

Cong Xiao sobbed a few times, and took a deep breath before speaking. "The Bai Shaorong you mentioned yesterday..."

"Ok?"

"I know him."

Cong Xiaoyi was born in a not very wealthy family. Cong Jiyun was a supermarket clerk before. Cong Xiaoyi's surname was not Cong, but Bai, Bai Shaotong.There is a difference of 7 years between Bai Shaorong and Bai Shaorong.His own father, Bai Jingguo, recalled that Cong Xiao had no other impression of his own father other than losing his temper and throwing things.He moved away with Cong Jiyun when he was six years old.

Like all ordinary families, the topic that Cong Jiyun and Bai Jingguo often revolve around every day is how to make money. Bai Shaorong was born with congenital heart disease. In addition to not thinking about surgery, the conservative treatment is to take medicine every day, not rich. After Cong Xiaoyi's fourth mouth was added to his family, it was even worse.

Helpless, Bai Jingguo is the only son of the Bai family, and Grandma Bai loves Bai Jingguo very much. Before marriage, she basically lived a life of wearing clothes and eating with her hands.The burden of the family basically fell on Cong Jiyun.

When Bai Shaorong was very young, Bai Jingguo used to do restaurant business with his friends and made a small fortune.The second branch chose a good location and waited until the construction was completed to find out that the so-called friend took out a large sum of money and ran away.In order to make up for the money, the only way to make up the hole was to sell the store.It was so easy to open a second home, but it seemed that luck was all gone, and they were losing money repeatedly, so they had no choice but to let go and retreat.

At that time, the only valuable thing in Bai Shaorong's family was the piano that Bai Jingguo bought when he was rich. They all hoped that their children would become dragons and phoenixes, and in the end they were reluctant to sell it even if they lost money.

The pressure is getting bigger and bigger, quarreling is the daily life of the couple, the most difficult days at home have not yet fully adapted, and Cong Jiyun was dismissed because of layoffs at the unit.

The head of the family, Bai Jingguo, started to go to the gambling table, losing more and winning less, and every time he lost, he would lose his temper on Cong Jiyun and his brothers.When there is no one at home, Bai Shaorong will teach Cong Xiaoyi to play the piano, which is the only happy thing in Cong Xiaoyi's memory.

Bai Shaorong couldn't do strenuous exercise because of his illness, so he could only practice the piano day after day at home.When Cong Xiaoyi was 5 years old, Bai Shaorong was 12.At this time, children can already distinguish between good and bad.Cong Xiaoyi likes to follow this elder brother very much, it is the only warmth in the family.

"Tongtong, when my brother grows up, I will take you away, okay?" When Bai Shaorong said this, his eyes were shining, and he was full of infinite expectations for the future.

"Brother, you won't leave me?" 5-year-old Cong Xiaoyi asked worriedly. He couldn't imagine who would be around him without this brother.

The relationship between Cong Jiyun and Bai Jingguo has become out of control. Finally, when Bai Jingguo lost again and was short of underwear, the fact that Cong Jiyun was sleeping with/sleeping outside was exposed.

The two had a big fight, and Bai Jingguo also smashed the expensive piano.

In my impression, Bai Shaorong's condition has been well controlled, but that day he seemed to be stimulated, and he curled up on the ground because of the heartache.After Cong Jiyun and Bai Jingguo had a big fight, they all went out, and the young Cong Xiaoyi was already dazed.The loud cry called the neighbor next door, and Bai Shaorong was unconscious when he was sent to the hospital.

After several hours of rescue work, he was considered stable and transferred to the general ward.

Neither Bai Jingguo nor Cong Jiyun came to the hospital at night, only Grandma Bai hurried over, and Cong Xiaoyi and Bai Shaotong barely squeezed into the same bed and fell asleep.

Not long after he was discharged from the hospital, because Bai Jingguo was too congested and owed a huge amount of debt, someone came to his door and started asking for money.Cong Xiaoyi always remembered the day when the person who asked for money smashed the house into pieces.Bai Jingguo hadn't come home for a while, and Cong Jiyun couldn't bear to play mahjong anymore.

"Tongtong, brother will take you away, okay?" Bai Shaorong whispered to Cong Xiao.

Cong Xiaoyi, who is not sensible, only trusts Bai Shaorong, no matter what he says, it is right for Cong Xiaoyi.

The two of them walked out of the broken house. After walking for an unknown amount of time, it was already dark. "Tongtong, follow closely."

Cong Xiaoyi held Bai Shaorong's clothes tightly, his hands were soaked in sweat. "Brother, I'm very hungry."

"Hey, brother will take you to eat later."

The young Bai Shaorong was a child after all, and he took his younger brother away to get away from his current life. However, due to his poor health and lack of consideration, the two children lost their way within a short distance.

"Brother" Cong Xiaoyi was too frightened, even compared to Bai Jingguo's daily beatings and scolding, the dark and endless road now made him feel more guilty. "How long do we have to go"

"Be obedient, we'll be there soon." Bai Shaorong actually planned to take his younger brother to find his grandma. Bai Jingguo owed money to gamble and the old lady was so angry that he wanted to sever ties with him, but his two grandsons really couldn't help it.Maybe it will be different when I go to grandma.

Cong Xiao's foot softened, and in the end the stalker had to let Bai Shaorong carry him on his back.

Bai Shaorong lowered his body, his body was exhausted, but his own brother was too young, so he ran out with him, and he had to be safe in everything he said.

The two of them walked for an unknown amount of time, since Xiaoyi had been sleeping on Bai Shaorong's back for quite a while.

He was woken up by his brother's breathing. When he opened his eyes, he saw that his brother was sweating, his lips were a little purple, and his breathing couldn't keep up with the rhythm. fell on the road.

Bai Shaorong seemed to be asleep, lying motionless on the ground.

Cong Xiaoyi was even more panicked, what could he do at the age of five?

What should I do?

"Brother" Cong Xiaoyi burst into tears, but there was nothing around except curbs and weeds.

Anxious Cong Xiao thought, the only way was to find grandma.

Bai Shaorong was still on the ground.

Cong Xiao stood up, "Brother, I'm going to find grandma, you have to wait for me."

When he took a step and ran away three times, he realized that just a light decision can change a person's life.

What happened next Cong Xiao couldn't speak, and Yan Zihan who was opposite had been sitting silently, as if trying to tell whether what he said was true or not.

"I lost my brother"

Cong Xiaoyi covered his face fiercely with his hands, the secret in his heart has been said, but the invisible pressure is always there, "I often dream it", Cong Xiaoyi looked up at Yan Zihan, "Dream it, Bai Shaorong is lying There, not moving at all."

Yan Zihan felt as if a rope was tied in his throat, making him unable to speak.He knew that Cong Xiaoyi already knew, he knew what Cong Xiaoyi already knew.

"I really want to forget this matter. I have buried this matter in my heart for so long, and sometimes I dare not even think about it." Cong Xiaoyi smiled lightly, "Am I being too selfish?"

"Shao Rong and I mentioned you." Yan Zihan picked up a cold steamed bun, "You two look alike."

Cong Xiao raised his head, looked into Yan Zihan's eyes and asked, "Yan Zihan, why did you come to me?"
