my summer

As mentioned earlier, my dad is an employee in a cement factory, so ordinary that he can't be more ordinary.Every day is a step-by-step life. The factory and vegetable farm at home are three points and one line. When not working overtime on weekends, other than playing cards and chess with colleagues under the tree, the entertainment is to go fishing or frog fishing in the nearby suburbs.

The days are regular and monotonous.

Mom is just the opposite, she likes to pursue new and exciting things, and dares to go all out.She couldn't bear such a long-term life, so the two divorced when I was just in elementary school.

My mother first asked her natal family to borrow some money, and opened a tobacco shop as a facade. Because of the good location, the business was pretty good.Later opened a grocery store.Life was so busy, and it didn't take long before I bought a third-class house in the county.

I was sentenced to my mother, and it is said that this is also my father's proposal.Your mother's big house is so spacious and comfortable. You will live a better life with your mother, Dad said.

I don't really care who I'm with.Because the two of them didn't get into a serious fight, they belonged to the type of peaceful breakup. My dad never misses every birthday party, and I will live with him for a period of time every summer vacation.

During the summer vacation after finishing the fourth grade, I took my summer homework and a few changes of clothes and lived in my father’s house as usual.To my surprise, apart from my father, there were two more unfamiliar faces in the family.

"Yangyang, this is your Auntie Sunmei, this is Auntie Sun's son. Call someone quickly." Dad said.

I looked at the petite and smiling woman who stood up from the sofa, and quickly looked around the layout of the room, and it seemed that some changes had taken place.The sixth sense tells me that this is my dad's new girlfriend, or my wife, my "stepmother".

"Aunt Sun." I called her softly.

"Oh, this is Yangyang, he looks really good and tall." Aunt Sun smiled, then turned around and pulled up the boy who was still sitting still, "This is my son Xia Zhi, he should be the same age as you , I'm in the fifth grade after the holidays. Xia Zhi, please say hello."

This is the first time I have seen the summer solstice.

At that time, he was not as tall as me, he was very thin, his skin was not white, nor very dark, it was the kind of oily and shiny color that appeared after being exposed to the sun for a long time.He looked at me for a long time with a pair of black eyes, and then whispered: "Hello."

"Hello." I responded lightly.

"Sit down, I'll go to the kitchen to look at the dishes, and dinner will be ready soon." Dad said as he walked to the kitchen.

"Yangyang, sit down." Aunt Sun pulled me to sit next to Xia Zhi, "You two brothers will definitely be able to play together, people of the same age have a lot of topics, and Xia Zhi also came to live with me for a while on vacation, and school started Go back home and continue studying."

Later, at the dinner table, through the chat between my father and Aunt Sun, I learned more about the summer solstice.

The day of his birth happened to be the summer solstice, and his father, who had died of illness for many years, happened to be named Xia, so he simply took this name directly.

What a nice and unique name, easy to remember and meaningful, I thought.

He is two months younger than me, should he call me "brother"?It's a pity that I can only hear this title at certain special moments in the future.

He grew up with his grandparents in his hometown town, and he just arrived at this home today, and he will live there until school starts.

"Come on, have a big chicken leg." Dad put the only chicken leg in Xia Zhi's bowl.

You know, chicken legs are my favorite. Every time I ate chicken, I contracted the chicken legs by myself.But now, I can only watch the chicken legs go into other people's jobs, and soon they will go into other people's stomachs.

I threw my chopsticks away and said angrily, "I won't eat, I'm full."

Dad just remembered something, and picked out a chicken wing root from the plate and gave it to me, "Come on, you eat this chicken leg, this one is also delicious."

"I don't eat it, this is not a chicken drumstick at all." I pouted Lao Gao.

The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.

I saw Aunt Sun secretly give Xia Zhi a look.Xia Zhi froze for a moment, then slowly put down the chicken leg on his lips, and then put the chicken leg in my bowl, "This is for you."

I stared at the chicken leg in the bowl, and a neat tooth mark landed on it suddenly, so without thinking, I picked up the chicken leg and threw it back to him, "You have eaten this chicken leg and returned it to me? Want me to eat yours?" Drooling?"

Xia Zhi grabbed the chicken leg and gnawed it, and said vaguely while gnawing: "If you don't eat it, I will eat it myself."

Seeing how delicious his food was, I couldn't help swallowing again, feeling aggrieved, tears welling in my eyes.

"It's all my fault. I only bought half of the chicken when I bought it. I will remember it next time and make sure you all have big drumsticks to eat." Dad hurriedly smoothed things over, "Yangyang, you are an older brother. You see, my younger brother is thinner than you. How big is that?" I'll let him eat the chicken leg, so I can grow some meat, so you can eat this smaller chicken leg today, okay?"

I had no choice but to hold back my tears, and picked up the chicken wing root and ate it.While eating, I thought, hmph, Xia Zhi, just wait for me, I will definitely avenge the chicken legs!

When I go to bed at night, I can't be happy again.

The structure of the tube building is simple and rude, with a long corridor in the middle, a narrow kitchen on the left side of the corridor, two connecting rooms, one large and one small, and a small balcony on the right side, and a public toilet at the stairs of each floor.

The big room at the back of my dad’s house is a multifunctional room that combines a bedroom, a living room and a dining room. The small room connected to the corridor outside is usually unused. Every time I come over, my dad puts the empty bed Pack it up and let me sleep.

This means that I have to share a bed with Xia Zhi.

Oh my god...how can I sleep here?I haven't slept with anyone since I was three years old.

But the truth is, not long after I lay down, I fell asleep.This bed is no stranger to me, lying on it is like reuniting with a friend I haven’t seen for a long time, and I feel very cordial, so I give myself to it with confidence.

That night, I had a weird dream. I dreamed that I was wrapped around my neck by a big snake. It got tighter and hotter. ——

I kicked my legs and woke up with a start.

There is a thin arm wrapped around my neck, hot and soft like a towel scalded with boiling water.I turned my head to look over, and a sleeping face came into view. I froze for a few seconds, and realized, oh, it turned out to be the annoying Xia Zhi.

I didn't care about Sanqi 21, grabbed Xia Zhi's arm and shook it hard, my neck became free again, and my breathing became much smoother.

Xia Zhi pouted a few times, turned over, and continued to sleep soundly.

Just imagine according to my temper, how could it be possible for him to get what he wanted?I slapped his ass hard, with a crisp sound, and the reaction of the force made my palm ache.

Xia Zhi finally woke up this time.He covered his buttocks with one hand, turned around slowly and looked at me, frowned, and muttered, "What are you doing? Beating people early in the morning..."

I stare at him too.

His complexion is not very good, there are faint dark circles under his eyes, it looks like he didn't sleep well at night.Maybe it's the strange environment, the strange bed and the strange bed partner, so I have insomnia.

I felt a little guilty immediately, it should be quite early, and the morning light coming in from the window was faint.

"I'll do some morning exercises, you can continue to sleep." I whispered.

He couldn't laugh or cry, "How can you sleep here? My butt hurts like hell."

"How about...sleep on your stomach?" I gave a conscience suggestion.

"..." Xia Zhi didn't make a sound, looked at me a few more times, turned around and continued to sleep.Only left me with his back.The silent back seems to be a silent protest against my atrocities.

I also turned my back to him, planning to sleep for a while, but unfortunately I couldn't fall asleep again.

I just lay on my side with my eyes closed, until Dad and Aunt Sun got up and made breakfast for us to eat, then I slowly got up, pretending that nothing happened just after waking up.

Xia Zhi never said a word, and his eyes did not stay on me for a moment.

After breakfast, both Dad and Aunt Sun went to work, and Xia Zhi and I were the only ones left sitting at the dinner table and writing our summer homework.

The room was very quiet, except for the slight rustling of the pen tip across the paper.

As I wrote, my thoughts began to wander.

Obviously it was Xia Zhi who robbed my favorite chicken leg, why is it my fault now?No, no, I can't forget this grudge, the slap in the morning can only count as interest at most.

The author has something to say: count it as a bamboo horse ^^
