My brother is so strong, I am also disappointed

It’s really all over, and I will slowly revise the article when I have time. Thanks again to everyone who saw this, I hope that I will be a better me in the future, and you will be a better you.

Once the snow falls in Liangcheng, it will be endless, and Xia Lin is like an ice sculpture that urgently needs to be melted, nestling by the charcoal fire all day and refusing to go out.

He has read Yan Twelve's letter many times, and as always, there is no words, only a picture of a weeping person, judging from his hair and clothes, it should be his self-portrait.

Does he miss me so much that he wants to cry?Xia Lin suddenly thought that she always said that she could cry when she said she could cry, but she had never seen Twelve cry.

Fifteen said that after Twelve was poisoned, he hugged the icicle and cried, but Xia Lin couldn't see it with his own eyes, which is really a pity.

Xia Lin was thinking wildly about this matter, when someone came to visit, it was Doctor Liu who opened the door.

"I was too busy a few days ago. You have been back for so long, so I have time to see you today." Doctor Liu's gentle smile remained the same as before.

"I was too rude. I should have gone to see you." Xia Lin hurriedly welcomed Dr. Liu into the door, and poured tea in a hurry.

"I just came back from the town, you can't find me, why is it yours?" Dr. Liu fiddled with the charcoal fire, and opened half a window to let the temperature in the room drop a little, "Don't burn it!" It's so hot, it's easy to get sick if it's too hot... By the way, did your mother beat you?"

Xia Lin shook her hand and almost dropped the teapot.

"No, no..."

"It's right if you don't have one." Dr. Liu said, "You have to thank me. In the past few days, I persuaded your mother to take it easy and stop pursuing this matter. It was a waste of time."

"Doctor Liu! You are so kind..." Xia Lin almost cried with joy.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me, I have conditions for helping you."

"Any conditions are fine!" Is there anything more important than life-saving?

"Really?"

"real!"

Doctor Liu achieved his goal easily: "You quit drinking."

"..." Xia Lin regretted a bit, "Can I change it..."

"I heard that Qingyu warned you about the evil consequences of drinking, but you always don't listen?" Doctor Liu put away his smile and began to lecture seriously.

"It's just because... I really can't sleep without drinking." Xia Lin defended softly.

"It's just what you think. Whether you sleep or not has nothing to do with whether you drink or not." Dr. Liu said, "First, listen to my advice and quit drinking. As for the method, I will teach you. Second, within three months Start training again."

Xia Lin was silent for a long time before asking, "Can it be done?"

Dr. Liu replied firmly, "Yes."

Xia Lin didn't speak again.

Dr. Liu saw what he was thinking: "You have already promised me, but you are not allowed to go back on your word."

"I……"

"Quit alcohol, take medicine on time, wait for your body to recover, and for martial arts to recover, you can do whatever you want." Dr. Liu followed the temptation, "Could it be that you plan to settle for the status quo and live a lifetime under the protection of others? Whether it's your mother, Yiyang, or Twelve, you should also see how much effort they put in for you to make up for your shortcomings."

"I see, I'll listen to you." Xia Lin agreed, but her voice couldn't hide her depression.

"I told you before that it's not too late for Yixi to work hard." Doctor Liu had expected such an outcome, and took out a bag of sugar crystals and stuffed them for Xia Lin as if by magic.

This is a famous specialty of Liangcheng. It is sweet and not sticky to the teeth. Wrapped in candied haws and chewed together with hawthorn, it can taste both sweet and sour. A little worried in my heart, I agreed to fulfill my promise to quit drinking and practice martial arts.

Dr. Liu won a great victory here, and he did not forget to praise Xia Lin in every possible way, and he did not leave until he was dizzy.

And Xia Lin sent Dr. Liu out, and heard what Dr. Liu said in a low voice, it seemed to be "...solved this one, and there is another..."

……

In the hall of the family banquet on New Year’s Eve, Elder Yan sat alone in the middle, and the four members of the Xia family shared a table at the side. Xia Feng and Elder Yan toasted and drank each other. Son, not only couldn't persuade them, but joined them in the end, and directly picked up the wine jar.

Xia Yu couldn't drink, so naturally he lost a lot of fun. Looking around, he found that Xia Lin didn't drink any alcohol today.

And Yan Twelve, who was sitting at the other end of the hall with four or five tables separated, was even more obvious, with his neck stretched out and his hands slipping frequently when serving dishes.Fifteen, who was beside him, ate by himself, sometimes not forgetting to put a few chopsticks into Twelve's mouth.

Xia Yu went to look at Fang Qingyu who was sitting next to Dr. Liu. The two were chatting and laughing, without the impatience they had when talking to him recently.

Sitting in the lively hall, Xia Yu suddenly felt more confused than ever.

"Son, what are you thinking?" Yan Xuege's words scared the two sons.

"I'm thinking that Niang's new bracelet is very beautiful today." Xia Lin has always been sweet-mouthed, and she reacted very quickly at this time.

"The eyes are very sharp, much better than your father! But this time I didn't ask you, I knew what you were thinking, I didn't open my mouth, I was waiting for you to take the initiative to talk to me." Yan Xuege stretched his arms, He sent the newly made bracelet on his wrist to Xia Lin. After hearing this, Xia Lin was so guilty that he didn't even have the heart to look at the bracelet. He could only hold his mother's hand and pretend to appreciate it.

Yan Xuege didn't ask, but looked at Xia Yu: "I want to ask my eldest son this time, what's on his mind?"

"...It's nothing." Xia Yu said.

In fact, he didn't know what he was thinking just now.

"You should understand one thing. We don't have any enemies anymore." Yan Xuege said, "Don't be nervous all day long, and don't need to work so hard on sword practice. It's better to help Dr. Liu grow herbs when you have time."

Xia Lin knew in her heart that this must be because Dr. Liu had talked with Yan Xuege, and her own affairs had not been resolved, so it was better to be quiet.

Xia Yu just said, "Okay."

Yan Xuege withdrew her arm from Xia Lin's hand: "No one makes you worry!"

Elder Yan, who punched Xia Feng with one hand, somehow heard this complaint, blushed and laughed: "Don't worry about Xueer, I will leave the trivial matters to your third brother!"

Yan Xuege replied: "Father, I don't care who is in charge of my son?"

"Then everyone is here today, and they are all happy!" Elder Yan was so drunk that he became more energetic, and his voice became a little louder, "Twelve, come here! First, explain to your eldest sister that you and Ah What's going on, Rin!"

The originally noisy hall fell silent in an instant, and all the brothers who were pushing and changing glasses for drinking orders all turned their eyes to the table in the corner.

The youngest son of Yan San's family didn't know why, and when he was about to speak, Yan San carried him back and covered his mouth.

Yan Twelve stood up tremblingly, knocked over Yan Shi's wine cup, and then walked forward with almost the same hands and feet.

Xia Yu gently pushed Xia Lin with his arm and nodded at him.

Xia Lin immediately understood Xia Yu's eyes, and was quite encouraged. She took a deep breath and stood up, kneeling in front of Elder Yan, not looking at the eyes of everyone behind her, but looking up at the person in front of her: "I'm sorry! I forced him!"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Xia Yu closed his eyes and turned his head, feeling that there might be some misunderstanding between their brothers.

Before Twelve got close, he staggered when he heard the words, but somehow stopped and didn't throw himself on the ground.

Fifteen puffed out a mouthful of soup, and was choked to cough again and again. The elder brother next to him quickly patted his back to relieve him. Yan Shi, who was sitting opposite him, wiped his face, and was more shocked than angry.

Doctor Liu and Fang Qingyu whispered to each other, each showing a smile.

Elder Yan patted the armrest of the seat heavily: "Good! You are worthy of being the son of our Xia family! Dare to act!"

Yan Xuege was full of murderous aura but put away the knife helplessly, but the dissatisfaction in his heart could not be reduced by half: "You...you can't justify your name anyway!"

"People in the world say it's scary, but it's just scary." Elder Yan took another drink, "I choose the road myself."

"I...I won't give up!" Yan Twelve also blushed, and finally choked out a promise.

"I won't either." Xia Lin didn't have the nerve to turn her head back. The voice of this sentence was not loud, but the people around could hear it clearly.

Xia Yu naturally heard it too.

"That's really good." Yan Xuege said in a deep voice, "Father, you too, a Hongyan pen bought you all, and stood on their side, now it's mine, isn't it?"

"How could it be?" Elder Yan said with a smile, "Let them choose their path, you can also choose to kill them!"

Fifteen was choked on another mouthful of soup.

Doctor Liu did not know when he appeared behind Fifteen and whispered something in his ear.

"That..." Fifteen raised his hands and stood up, "Shall we go for a snowball fight?"

Yan Xuege raised her brows and was about to speak when Xia Feng behind her pulled her back and said, "I'll participate!"

Yan San and Yan Shi exchanged glances quickly. Yan San said that his son also wanted to play, and he could only be with him. Yan Shi stood up and put his arms around Fifteen, expressing that his younger brother's love of playing was really helpless.

Seeing this, Qian Chongxue's other brothers also followed out.

Xia Lin and Twelve didn't expect such a development, so they followed the crowd to the martial arts arena inexplicably.

Dr. Liu had been prepared for a long time. He took a lottery and handed out one to each person. The two people who drew the same color formed the same team.

"Doctor Liu..." Xia Lin took the sign and cast doubtful eyes at Doctor Liu.

"Yixi must keep his word." Dr. Liu winked at him.

So it turned out that Qian Chongxue's brothers had more or less sought doctor Liu for medical treatment, since it was Doctor Liu's proposal, naturally no one would refuse.

The result of the division was that Xia Feng and the youngest sons of Yan San's family, Yan Xuege and Yan Twelve, Xia Lin and Doctor Liu, Xia Yu and Fifteen, Fang Qingyu refused to participate, and accompanied Elder Yan as an audience.

Dr. Liu announced the rules: "If you have a grudge, you have a grudge, if you have a grudge, you have a revenge. Except that people in the same team cannot attack each other, you can hit anyone. If you leave the range of the martial arts field, you will lose."

Yan Xuege looked at Yan Twelve, completely resigned to his fate, and only planned to perform this show along the steps to make Elder Yan happy.

At [-] o'clock, Yan felt that his life was in danger: "Sister..."

Yan Xuege gave him a white look: "You are the daughter-in-law of the Xia family now, wouldn't it be good to mess up your seniority?"

However, Yan Twelve couldn't call Yan Xuege mother in front of Elder Yan no matter what.

"Forget it," Yan Xuege didn't care anymore, "It's not that easy to be my daughter-in-law. I was born without losing, so I have to win even if it's a snowball fight. Do you understand me?"

"I understand, I understand!" Yan Twelve was overjoyed, and nodded his head.

Fifteen over there was also very excited: "Brother Xia! We joined hands and beat them until they cried!"

Xia Yu was helpless: "Really? If your eldest sister cries and calls her father, what will happen to us?"

Fifteen looked back at Elder Yan and said firmly, "I will die!"

Xia Feng knelt down and stroked the child's head: "Remember, men often do things against their will, which is also part of spiritual practice."

Elder Yan gave an order, and everyone in the field fought in disorder.

Xia Lin had no fighting spirit at first, so she retreated to the side secretly, but Yan Shi always caught him and smashed hard, and even brought Yan Shiyi from the same team to besiege, Xia Lin was forced to fight back, but for some reason, Dr. There was no one around, leaving him alone. He turned around and wanted to call Xia Yu for help, but found that Xia Yu was not in the crowd either.

Fifteen and Twelve stood together inexplicably, and together with Yan Xuege, they killed all directions in the center of the martial arts field.

Xia Yu had something on his mind, and he never liked to play games. He had already spotted the location, and hid in the tree next to the martial arts arena as soon as the show started. He watched the crowd shouting and shouting, and Xia Lin being beaten, but he couldn't bear it. Resisting the initial impulse to help, I kept thinking about those two sentences-"I won't give up" and "I won't either".

"Who is our little head looking at?" Dr. Liu stood on the branch behind Xia Yu. He arranged the game by himself, and naturally he had his own purpose.

"Doctor Liu?" Xia Yu was very surprised. He heard that Xia Lin said that Doctor Liu knew martial arts, but he didn't expect that he would not be able to detect the other party's lightness kung fu.

"Aren't you going to help Yixi? I ​​came to you, he can't beat Yan Shi alone."

"...I thought about it." Xia Yu replied briefly.

"And why didn't you act?"

"……only games."

"Games can also hurt."

Xia Yu finally turned back to Doctor Liu, unable to understand his words: "Do you think I should help him?"

"Look again." Doctor Liu smiled and pointed at Xia Lin for Xia Yu to look at.

"Go ahead, leave!" Xia Lin couldn't understand that they were fighting so hard in a snowball fight, threw the last snowball at Yan Shi, turned around and ran out of the martial arts arena.

Yan Shi hopped his feet and taunted: "Coward! You still dare to bully my brother?!"

Xia Lin also said loudly: "Who is timid! It's just that my mother won't let me play with idiots!"

"He... actually doesn't need me." Xia Yu said in a low voice, "He knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. I didn't realize that, maybe he used to..."

"Don't go to extremes. Many things in the world are not either one or the other." Doctor Liu changed positions, stepped on a branch, and sat down beside Xia Yu. Dare to live so comfortably."

"Doctor Liu, am I...am I being too self-righteous?" Xia Yu knew that Doctor Liu had come prepared and that he had already been seen through, so he didn't hide anything anymore. The questions that bothered him might be answered today.

"It's human nature, so don't worry too much about it." Dr. Liu said, "There are things you can't figure out, and the people you see now have them too."

"yes……"

Dr. Liu let out a sigh of relief, feeling very happy: "I thought it would be more difficult on your side, but I didn't expect you to be the first to figure it out."

"I still don't understand..."

"I think Yixi said something to you, and Qingyu also said something, so I don't need to repeat the redundant words. If you still don't understand..." Doctor Liu tilted his head and smiled, "Come down with me and fight with all your strength How about a snowball fight?"

……

The snowball fight ended when all the snow on the field melted into water and could no longer be scooped up.

At this time, it was already dark, and everyone went back to change their clothes before reuniting. It was almost midnight.

Elder Yan was a little sleepy, but he didn't listen to persuasion, he refused to go to bed early, and insisted on watching the new year with them.

As in previous years, Yan San made preparations in advance and ignited all the communication tubes for the rest of the year on time——

In the starless and moonless cold night, colorful snowflakes bloomed, and everyone looked up at the sky. Every wisp of residual flame fell, adding hope to their hearts.

No one noticed that a pair of hands were quietly clenched, and the two common desires merged into one at this moment.
