Ode to Pear Blossoms Part 1

Yi Zhen sat in an unfurnished single room, the smell of paint all over his nose made him a little dizzy.

Yuan Yi sat beside him with Erlang's legs crossed, his eyes flickering over Yi Zhen from the corner of his eye from time to time, not knowing what to say first.

The fat man asked a girl to bandage his wound. The girl was Xiaolu. She was in her twenties. Seeing Yi Zhen's youthful appearance and not talking much, she wanted to tease him: "Oh, my little brother looks so good, how old is he?" ? Do you have a little girlfriend? If not, can my sister introduce one to you?"

The fat man's molars hurt: "Sister Xiaolu, you really have the potential to be a bustard!"

The monkey fell to the side and said: "Sister, how old is he, why don't you ask me, I don't have a girlfriend, I think you are very good, Sister Lu, hehe!"

The fat man patted the monkey's head: "You dare to flirt with anyone, this is the big sister of our venue!"

Monkey hugged his head: "Elder sister needs a man too!" Then he licked his face and asked Xiao Lu: "Sister, I am good to girls, really!"

Sister Xiaolu giggled: "You boy, it's really cowardly to tease a girl even before her hair is fully grown!" After dressing Yi Zhen's wound, he lifted his foot and was about to leave when the fat man stopped her and turned to Yuan Yi: "Hey, you don't need some medicine for being kicked in the back?"

When Yuan Yi heard the collapse, he straightened up: "Who was kicked?"

The fat man said: "You, I can see clearly, just now that kid kicked you on the back while you were not paying attention."

Yuan Yi endured the burning pain in his back, and stuck his neck: "Your old eyes are dim, you."

The fat man scratched his head: "Just now..."

Yuan Yi waved his hand: "You read wrong, I'm fine."

After all, Yuan Yi is a 17-year-old boy, and his thoughts are sometimes pure and naive. When he entered the door just now, he was too anxious and didn't pay attention. Originally, this kind of fight Yuan Yi never thought about his image problem, but for some reason, as soon as he entered the door, he saw the hairy The boss bullied Yi Zhen and wanted to vent his anger on Yi Zhen, but when he lost his head in a hurry, he was kicked.

At first I felt dazzled and no one noticed. After all, I haven't seen Yi Zhen for several years. I finally acted like a hero just now. Fatty, who has no eyesight, doesn't leave anyone behind.

Yi Zhen's cold voice sounded: "I saw it just now, that skinny guy kicked you, it seemed pretty hard."

Yuan Yi was taken aback, leaned on the sofa and stopped talking.

Seeing Yuan Yi's awkward look, Xiaolu left a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao on the table: "If it hurts, just wipe it on yourself." After speaking, he walked out enchantingly.

Yi Zhen looked at the bottle of Yunnan Baiyao on the table, and thought of the bottle at Yuan Yi's house. The bottles were all the same. At that time, he was either injured by one or the other.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhen smiled unconsciously. The source of the medicine is unknown, but it is effective.

The fat man took the medicine and wanted to rub it on Yuan Yi, Yuan Yi pointed at him: "Stop coming, don't touch me with your big fat hands!"

The fat man looked at Yuan Yi like that and said, "I'm stupid, why don't you take a handkerchief and shed a few tears, saying that I'm a prostitute or not? If you like it or not, who cares about you? It's not me who will be hurt!"

Yi Zhen got up and took the medicine bottle, and sat next to Yuan Yi to open it.

Yuan Yi squinted at him: "Why?"

"I'll rub the medicine on you." Yi Zhen dipped some ointment on his finger.

"Your arm doesn't hurt anymore?" Yuan Yi snorted.

"Small injury, it's not useless." He lifted up Yuan Yi's T-shirt, the boy's back was thin, his waist was obvious, his shoulders were well-proportioned, and the place where he was kicked in the middle was only a little red, nothing serious.

Yi Zhen poked his hand in from behind and rubbed the medicine on him.

Yuan Yi suddenly sat stiff. He felt a cold hand penetrate into his clothes and rub it gently on his back. His fingertips were a little rough, but the pressing technique and the cold ointment gave him a strange feeling. A sense of comfort, and a little inexplicable alternative feeling.

The monkey approached the fat man: "Hey, what was your relationship before?"

The fat man said, "They are neighbors. I have known Yi Zhenle since I followed Yuan Yi."

The monkey said in a low voice, "It's just a neighbor? How come it looks like a long-lost lover?" The monkey didn't have much knowledge, and he always spoke beyond his brain, but his words were not rude.

Monkey really thinks that the relationship between these two people is really special. They don't seem to be very familiar with each other. At least they haven't said a word until now, but this kind of action is so consistent, even with a little intimate.

He knows Yi Zhen too well, this kid is very withdrawn, like a savage alone, even if he has been with him for four years, he still doesn't have such intimacy.These two people are both unfamiliar and familiar, and there is even a strange harmony in this scene.

Not only the monkey, but the fat man also looked at Yuan Yi as if he had discovered a new world. This kid is picky and cares about face, but he can hurt anyone who doesn't like him. Because of her family background, she is good-looking and smart, and basically she doesn't like to see her, even fairy tales don't care about her brother.

But look at this picture, Yi Zhen applied the medicine to him and he didn't say a word, sitting stiff and even a little flattered, it was the first time he was so smooth.

The fat man was amused, and quickly took the opportunity to laugh at Yuan Yi: "Hey, classmate Yuan, your little face is on fire, why are you doing this?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi quickly fixed the T-shirt and said, "Okay, it's nothing serious."

Yi Zhen took out a piece of paper to wipe her hands, still expressionless.

The fat man said to the monkey: "I think they are both injured, we are the good ones, let's go, go with the fat man to install the stereo."

The monkey looked aggrieved: "Brother Fat, I'm also a cutie who got hurt!"

The fat man took a serious look at the monkey: "Little cutie, let's go to work." Then he pulled the monkey and went out to work, leaving the monkey to cry: "Xiao Yi, save me!"

In an instant, only Yuan Yi and Yi Zhen were left in the room, and the atmosphere began to become awkward again. Yuan Yi felt that the air was beginning to freeze.

Yuan Yi actually wanted to ask him a lot of things, and the biggest confusion was why he appeared here as a thug.

Yuan Yi cleared his throat and said, "Why haven't you visited grandpa in the past few years?"

"Aunt Qiu said that your family has moved to England."

"She farted, my grandfather never left Beijing."

Hearing what he said, Yi Zhen remembered Qiu Peijue's indifferent and mocking face when she stood at the gate of Qiuyuan and said that Yuan Wangchun's family had moved to England, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

Maybe he didn't believe Qiu Peijue's words at the time, but the strong self-esteem of the eight-year-old child kept him from knocking on the door of Yuan's house. He didn't want Qiu Peijue to laugh at him.

Yuan Yi asked again: "Then why didn't you find Xu Dehai?"

Yi Zhen said: "When I went to Qiuyuan, Aunt Qiu said that he had left, and I didn't have his contact information."

Yuan Yi was taken aback for a moment, and guessed it was Qiu Peijue's fault when he turned a corner in his mind.

Yuan Yi frowned: "Why is Qiu Peijue lying to you like this? Xu Dehai and my sister-in-law have been doing business for the past two years, and they have never left Qiuyuan before."

Yi Zhen smiled wryly: "Maybe I'm afraid I'm a burden."

Yuan Yi was puzzled: "Why? My grandfather said that you left with your mother back then. Now that your mother is out of prison, why would she think so?"

Yi Zhen said: "We are going to Changping with Wang Peiqi, the big brother of Qiuyuan."

Yuan Yi said: "Wang Peiqi... oh Uncle Wang... I remember seeing him when I was a child."

Yi Zhen felt that there was no need to hide it from Yuan Yi, so she simply said: "I was young at the time, and I only remembered that Wang Peiqi bullied my mother. One day when I came home from school, I found a police car passing by me. I didn't know until I got home that Wang Peiqi Dead, my mother is crazy."

Yuan Yi was astonished to the extreme. In Yuan Yi's consciousness, such a plot would only appear in movies. He never thought that such a thing would happen in his life, and it would happen to this person in front of him.

He looked at Yi Zhen in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "And then?"

Yi Zhen said: "Later, I lived with the old policeman who handled the case, and he died every two years."

Yuan Yi said: "The fat man said that you followed Fifth Brother as a thug because no one took care of you, right?"

Yi Zhen looked at Yuan Yi expressionlessly: "People need to eat."

"Then, where's your mother?"

"I've been in prison for several years, and now I'm in a mental hospital." Yi Zhen's voice was calm.

At this moment, Yuan Yi suddenly wanted to hug Yi Zhen vigorously, but he moved his fingers but didn't have the courage to raise his arms.

When he saw Yi Zhen just now, he felt that this child had changed. Although he had the facial features and eyes of his childhood, he could vaguely recognize that this was the little guy back then, but no matter his temperament or expression, Yi Zhen was completely reborn and became cold. Become impersonal, become like a block of ice.

He didn't understand why Yi Zhen had changed so much, but now he understood.

Whoever can enjoy such a thing is either a fool or an idiot!

Yuan Yi suddenly realized soberly that what was in front of him was not the eight-year-old boy, but a homeless boy who was running around for a living. It was just that this boy happened to be the little boy back then.

Yuan Yi suddenly felt self-blame, self-blame for no reason, although he knew that things would not change even if he didn't go to study abroad, but he really regretted his decision to study abroad at this moment.

Not only himself, he even blamed everyone, Qiu Peijue, Xu Dehai, and even his grandfather.

He knew there was no reason for this. Qiu Peijue was afraid of taking responsibility, which is human nature; Xu Dehai had been depressed since Yi Zhen lost contact with him, but there was nowhere to find him; Keeping in the dark, he was only complaining about why Yi Zhen didn't even have a letter.

He knew that he shouldn't blame it. It's not that the 17-year-old Yuan Yi didn't understand this truth, but he couldn't help thinking that if anyone left Yi Zhen back then, maybe he wouldn't have made the child look like this.

Yi Zhen seemed to see through his mind, looked at Yuan Yi seriously, and said: "Everyone is an independent individual, no one should be responsible for what happened to me, and I have no reason to blame anyone, maybe this is the old saying, But it’s up to everyone.”

Suddenly, the corners of Yi Zhen's mouth turned up slightly: "Look, I'm still alive and well, aren't I?"

Yuan Yi felt distressed looking at the slight curvature of the corner of his mouth, it was not a smile at all, the corners of the mouth were raised, and the eyes were clear, this kind of smile was for others to see.

If this is Yi Zhen's smile, then this child hasn't really smiled for a long time.
