Canary [Rebirth]

After going back that day, Pei Xiangque's interest was not very high, and the two of them were a little absent-minded when they talked.

And now his hometown is Nanzhen, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.There are paddy fields in the countryside, green tiles and white walls, and smoke from cooking.

The spring rain stopped for a while, and the sky cleared up a little.It was rare for Pei Ding to be at home. During dinner in the morning, Pei Xianglong suddenly said that the teacher said that students who paid the tutoring fee could go to the teacher's house for tutoring after school in the afternoon.

Zhou Xiu knocked Pei Xianglong on the head, and said softly, "You don't know that the family has been spending a lot recently, so let's talk about tutoring."

Before Pei Ding's job was put down, he stopped his wife Zhou Xiu, who looked like the head of the family, and said in a loud voice, "The children of other families are making up for it. If Xiaolong doesn't go, he will fall behind and waste his smart head. Suffering, can you get a child through suffering?"

After eating, Pei Ding went to the room to count the money, and told Pei Xianglong to keep it and not lose it.He thought about how much money he had left, not much, not enough for a pack of cigarettes a day, and not enough for playing mahjong during the coming off-season.

The rain dripped down the tiles and hit the concrete floor.

Listening to the sound of the water, Pei Ding thought about other ways to make money, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't withdrawn the money Pei Xiangque sent this month.

He went to town, but there was nothing on the card.Pei Ding hurried home again, and made a phone call to scold Pei Xiangque first.

After hanging up the phone and understanding the situation, Pei Ding anxiously took out the cigarette case, took out the lighter, and was about to light it. After squinting at Pei Xianglong who was doing homework on the small table beside him, he endured it and walked outside the house.

Seeing that Pei Ding finally stopped looking at him, Pei Xianglong muttered a curse, secretly dug out the game console from under the textbook, and started playing it enthusiastically.He laughed again, after getting the tutoring fee, he would be able to scrape together enough to buy this old game console from his classmates.

Pei Ding lit a cigarette. He hated Pei Xiangque, not because he was born hard-hearted, but he didn't know why.

When did it start?

Perhaps it started when Pei Xiangque's mother was bedridden, unable to work, and could only take medicine, which made him owe foreign debts.At that time, he only felt that he would be dragged down to death by his wife, but he felt sorry for her being the mother of his son, so he had to support it.

After she died, Pei Ding breathed a sigh of relief and married Zhou Xiu. He still loved Pei Xiangque, but after a while, Pei Xiangque became a fool and couldn't speak.The relatives and neighbors around him didn't dare to make fun of him, but one time when he came home after playing mahjong, he heard two people laughing at him on the way.Pei Ding also thought, what use is he to a fool?

Not long after, Pei Xianglong was born. Pei Ding put all his thoughts on his youngest son, and became more and more disgusted with Pei Xiangque's appearance that he couldn't even speak.

Pei Ding lit a cigarette, thinking that he was not wrong at all.

Wearing an apron, Zhou Xiu came out of the small kitchen outside and saw Pei Ding squatting at the door smoking with a pinch of ash under his feet. Is old Pei angry?"

Pei Ding took a deep puff of the cigarette, but was still out of breath, "Who? Isn't it that fool."

Zhou Xiu's eyes darkened, but her face was still gentle and gentle, as if persuading: "What's the matter with Xiaoque outside? Could something happen? It was time to pay back some time ago, and I didn't hear you say anything."

When the matter of money was mentioned, Pei Ding became even more furious and dropped his cigarette butt, "He can't speak, who wants him around? After finally begging daddy to tell grandma to ask someone to find him a job, he only needs to do hard work. I have been working on the construction site for less than a year, and I only earn a little money. I haven’t paid back this month, and I just sent a text message after asking, saying that the engineering team was taken over by the police, and the job is gone. I am still looking for a job. Not a dime."

"This is really... But, the engineering team outside is not so easy to call the police. They all have big bosses." Zhou Xiu rolled his eyes and said suddenly, "Could it be that he was deceived by those people outside? I have to go around, I am wild, and I don’t want to give us money if I make money. Otherwise, if I can’t find a job, what will I eat and wear in the city?”

Pei Ding was taken aback, and cursed loudly: "Where did he get the guts!"

Zhou Xiu thought carefully, "Yes or no, first ask the third child of the Zhu family."

After finishing speaking, she sighed again, "I hope Xiaoque will not do something stupid. He made money, and you and I are not greedy for his money, but his brain is not working well, so let's take care of it for him first. After Xiaolong When I grow up, I can study well and have a future, so why not help my elder brother!"

When Pei Xianglong was mentioned, Pei Ding's face softened a little, and he put out the cigarette butt, "I'll ask tomorrow."

There is little rain in Ningjin, and the weather has been sunny until April.

Today is Friday, the head teacher left the classroom with a serious face, leaving behind a group of moaning students.

April is a month that is destined to be unpleasant, because the time for midterm exams is often set in this month.And just now, Teacher Zhang told them the time determined by the Academic Affairs Office, and told them to review carefully.

Pei Xiangque felt a little guilty.His own level is still very clear, and he can barely do homework that contains fragmentary knowledge points, but if it is really a complete test paper, [-]% of it will be a hit.

Before leaving, An Zhizhou wrote a note, "If you don't know, write it down and ask me."

Pei Xiangque looked up, with a worried face, and said dryly "Oh".

Worrying is not an option, Pei Xiangque packed his schoolbag and walked slowly towards home.

At this time, Lu Yu was still in the company. He was a little tired after dealing with business all day, so he rubbed the acupuncture points around his eyes.

Li Chengguang stood in front of him, holding an invitation in his hand. It was a business dinner organized by Ningjin, and many people were invited.

Lu Yu asked, "When?"

"Next Saturday night, the venue will be at the Sea Blue Hotel."

Lu Yu has always been very impatient with these things, he doesn't talk about friendship with others, but this time the situation is different, he is a newcomer, so he still needs to give some face.

"Go back to them, just say that I will go." Lu Yu finished flipping through a document, and there was still a small stack beside it, "Take them away."

After speaking, he stood up and stood in front of the table, intending to go back.

While packing up the documents, Li Chengguang speculated on Lu Yu's intentions.Lu Yu gets off work very early recently, and the time is right, why?

Perhaps, he guessed that the little trace of concealment was for the boy who lived across the street.

After getting in the car, Lu Yu habitually tilted his head and looked out the window. A small shop was doing business. He opened the window, and a faint scent wafted over.

What did Lu Yu tell Li Chengguang?

After a while, Li Chengguang came back with a bagful of food, including two packaged candied haws and a bag of hot fried chestnuts.

Lu Yu said: "Drive faster." Wait a little longer, and the chestnuts will be cold.

Because of the delay in buying chestnuts, I usually come back a little later, and it is almost dark.Lu Yu knocked on the door next door with vegetables and candied haws. Pei Xiangque was wearing short-sleeved shorts and was still doing homework on the table just now.

Lu Yu put the sugar-fried chestnuts and candied haws in one hand, and handed them to Pei Xiangque, who was still studying hard.

"Eat it, it won't taste good when it's cold."

Pei Xiangque took it silently.

Vegetables and meat are pre-processed, and there is no need to wash them again, which is a waste of time.Lu Yu skillfully chopped vegetables, turned on the fire, poured oil, put in the pot, and seasoned the various seasonings accurately.He has great strength in his wrists, and he is also good at turning pots, and the food he makes is full of aroma.

He had just finished cooking a dish when Pei Xiangque walked up to him and handed over a small bowl, in which the peeled chestnuts were piled up like a hill.

Pei Xiangque's fingers were red, and the fried chestnuts were packed tightly, and they were still hot just now.He tilted his head and said seriously with a straight face: "It won't taste good when it's cold."

Lu Yu sighed, picked up two and tasted them, they were sweet and glutinous, really good.It is estimated that the little sparrow has not eaten a single one, and put all the peeled ones here.

After seeing the doctor, having dinner together every night, and singing songs before going to bed, the relationship between the two has become much closer.Lu Yu was very good at getting along, he took one and stuffed it into Pei Xiangque's mouth. The chestnut kernel was so big that he had to open his mouth wide to swallow it.

Lu Yu ate two more meaningfully, "It's delicious. But if it's in the way here, you can take it yourself."

Pei Xiangque was holding a small bowl, turned around, and stopped at the threshold of the kitchen, "Then you have to remember to eat later."

Lu Yu sent him away.

The fried dishes were relatively simple, and the rice was cooked by Pei Xiangque in advance, so it would be ready for dinner in a short time.

Pei Xiangque didn't forget to recite English words while eating.

Lu Yu didn't stop him, and asked Pei Xiangque while picking up food, "Why do you love studying today and don't put down your books when you eat?"

Pei Xiangque was already very familiar with his voice, but he understood it after repeating it twice, with a bitter face, "It's time for the exam. I still... don't know much about it."

Speaking of this, I seem a little shy, and I always feel that I have wasted the opportunity to study.

Lu Yu was startled, "Then I can teach you."

"Why, don't you believe it?" Lu Yu looked at Pei Xiangque's appearance and pondered for a while, "When I was studying, my grades were not bad, so I shouldn't make big mistakes when I teach you."

What he said was half true and half false. When he was studying abroad, his grades were indeed very good.It's just that I was very indulgent for a while, not to mention studying, I didn't even pass the exam.

But with his sincere appearance, it was easy to deceive Pei Xiangque.

For Pei Xiangque, is there anything Uncle Lu doesn't know?

--No!
