Canary [Rebirth]

Pei Xiangque cried for more than half an hour, her whole face was covered with tears, her eyes were round and red.After all, he was 16 years old, and he was not a child anymore. After crying, Pei Xiangque became a little shy, grabbed Lu Yu's clothes tightly, slowly rolled up his body and shrunk down into Lu Yu's arms, burying his face refused to come out.

Lu Yu gently scratched his nose with his knuckles, embarrassing him deliberately, "The little sparrow is almost crying like a little cat. You were so brave just now, now you know how shy?"

Pei Xiangque faltered and stopped talking. He just huddled his body tighter and didn't show his face at all.

Anyway, in front of Lu Yu, he had a toothache, a leg injury, arguing for candy, crying until he hiccuped and almost gasped, and all kinds of embarrassing things... But, can't he save some face?

When Uncle Lu came, he cried with sadness in his heart, as if he had completely forgotten all the grievances he had suffered before, and only remembered being happy with Lu Yu.

Thinking of this, Pei Xiangque frowned again with tears in his eyes, and moved closer to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu supported Pei Xiangque's head and hugged him up.Pei Xiangque was very skinny, and he was born with a physique that was difficult to gain weight. Even after feeding him for so long, Lu Yu still felt that his bones were so crooked, and he always thought about how to make him more mellow.As for Pei Xiangque, probably because he has hugged a lot recently, he is already very proficient, and he automatically and spontaneously circled Lu Yu's neck.

The yard was quiet, with no one in sight.Several people guarding the gate of the courtyard watched Lu Yu come out with Pei Xiangque in his arms, and they all followed behind him.The taxi was still parked not far outside the village, and they looked at them as they walked along the way.The households in their village were not close together, but scattered widely, and no movement was heard when they were beating anyone.In addition, the Pei family is sparsely populated, and here they are just a small surname, not related to relatives, and Pei Ding is not good at life, and does not walk around with other families in the village. Even if he knew something was wrong, he didn't bother to come and check it, for fear of being contaminated.After all, this place is not really poor and bad, and it can be united to the outside world.

After a bumpy journey in the taxi, I finally arrived in Chengfeng County.The hotel was booked long ago, and Lu Yu didn't let Pei Xiangque leave his arms for such a long time.

Pushing open the hotel door, Lu Yu looked around first, put Pei Xiangque on the sofa beside him, got up and wanted to leave, but there was a small resistance from behind.

Pei Xiangque lowered his head and stretched out his fingers to grab the corner of Lu Yu's clothes.

That was an easy force to break free, but Lu Yu turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Pei Xiangque raised his eyes and glanced lightly. There seemed to be a puddle of water in the black pupils, reflecting Lu Yu's tall figure in a deep and shallow manner.

Lu Yu bent down and patted Pei Xiangque's head, "If you don't go away, you'll be in the room."

Only then did Pei Xiangque slowly let go of the corner of his clothes.But his eyes were completely lifted up, staring at Lu Yu without turning around, as if only in this way can he feel safe and feel at ease.

Lu Yu smiled softly, feeling very satisfied.He walked to the bathroom and left the door open. He worked for a while, washed the bathtub, filled it with water, and wrung out a hot towel.

He came out, stood in front of Pei Xiangque, raised his pointed chin, and looked carefully.Pei Xiangque's eyes have been swollen from crying for a long time, and the surrounding area is red, half of her beautiful snow-white face is also red, there are faint marks of palms, and some slight red marks, but overall it is not serious .

Lu Yu was a little relieved, "When I left yesterday, I still had a fair and pretty face. Now that I've been out of sight for a day, I've turned into a pretty face. When I'm done wiping my face, I'll take a bath, and then go to sleep well. Once you wake up, everything will be fine when you wake up tomorrow."

"My little sparrow needn't worry about anything," he added.

Pei Xiangque's whole face was rubbed back and forth, and he wiped it carefully, and he awkwardly held back the yawn that was about to yawn and said, "I, I slept enough yesterday, I don't want to sleep anymore. I want to talk to Uncle Lu .”

Lu Yu was taken aback, but he didn't expose his lies, and said softly, "Well, let's go."

Pei Xiangque turned his head three times and went to the bathroom pitifully, looking quite pitiful, Lu Yu held his forehead and laughed, he looked like a bad person.

This is a rare side of Pei Xiangque.

His temper is very soft, and he doesn't take it seriously when he suffers a little loss on weekdays, but he is still very strong in his bones. If he encounters a problem, he always wants to solve it by himself, and never wants to trouble others.Even though Lu Yu had been together for six years before his rebirth, Pei Xiangque did not depend on him so much.

Lu Yu couldn't help but want to take a few more glances.

After taking a bath, Pei Xiangque put on the clothes Lu Yu brought from home, got into the soft bed, and pulled the blanket over his nose, revealing only a pair of eyes.Tilting his head and looking at Lu Yu, he seemed to be asking him, why didn't he come to chat with him?

Lu Yu quickly took a shower and leaned sideways on the other side of the double bed.

There was only one wall lamp hanging by the bed, and the light was soft and dim, falling on Pei Xiangque's body.Pei Xiangque was wearing a large white T-shirt, with large patches of snow-white skin and light blue blood vessels unsuspectingly exposed, very attractive.He didn't seem to notice this, he shook his head foolishly, and wanted to get closer to Lu Yu.No matter how amazing Lu Yu's restraint was, he completely collapsed in front of such a Pei Xiangque, so he had to tidy up his clothes and turn his head away.

Pei Xiangque was quite aggrieved, and stammered to accuse Lu Yu, "What's wrong with Uncle Lu, don't you look at me?"

Lu Yu coughed twice, then turned back silently.

The surrounding atmosphere suddenly fell silent, only the sound of each other's breathing.Lu Yu lowered his head and asked, "When you go home this time, what exactly happened, tell me bit by bit, slowly."

Pei Xiangque was stupid, but not stupid. He sorted out the whole thing from beginning to end, and sent him home. His request was rejected. The next day, Pei Ding and Zhou Xiu suddenly forced him to give up the opportunity of the rescue center. At noon, he escaped to call Lu Yu, was arrested again, and finally waited for Uncle Lu to come and narrated the series of events in detail.

Finally, he asked with bright eyes: "How did Uncle Lu come so fast? I, I thought I would have to wait. It took a long time!"

Lu Yu narrowed his eyes. After hearing what he said just now, he was really in a bad mood, but he could always smile gently and naturally to Pei Xiangque.

Then, another lie was told.

"It's a quick flight, and we'll be there in a while."

Pei Xiangque foolishly believed it again.

Lu Yu continued to ask: "Then, Ah Pei thinks who wants you to give up that spot?"

Pei Xiangque thought for a moment, "I think, um, it's Zhou Xiu." He called Zhou Xiu's name directly, and described what was written on the note they used to persuade him back then. It was not Pei Ding's. The tone, only Zhou Xiu would do that.

Lu Yu nodded, indicating that he understood, and asked another question that seemed unrelated to today's matter, "Do you hate that Zhou Xiu?"

Pei Xiangque pretended to be deaf and dumb for quite a while, but his appearance didn't change much from before. As long as there was something he didn't want to answer, he could pretend he didn't understand. It's a pity that Lu Yu occasionally took this set, and occasionally didn't, depending on the situation. depends on the severity.

For example, at this time, he kept asking questions one after another, insisting on asking why.

Pei Xiangque shrank back under the quilt, no longer wishing to get into Lu Yu's arms like just now, his brows were tightly frowned, his eyelashes kept blinking, and his whole body was unhappy.

This made Lu Yu more certain that Pei Xiangque's illness must be related to Zhou Xiu.

That memory was too dark, fuzzy, and terrifying. Even though Pei Xiangque had grown up and thought he had become stronger, he still didn't want to think about it, and he didn't want to tell others. He responded in a low voice, "Why do you ask? I Just hate her because she's bad."

"Because I want to know why? You are different now. Didn't you just promise and promise that you are my little sparrow. My little sparrow has been bullied, how can I not know?"

Lu Yu repeated this sentence close to Pei Xiangque's ear again, slurring every word, until the tips of Pei Xiangque's ears trembled. The soft and intimate attributive "my" almost made this The defense that the little sparrow, who had no resistance to Uncle Lu, was finally defeated.

Pei Xiangque's voice was trembling, and he seemed to have no strength, "Uncle Lu, it's too foul for Uncle Lu to say that..."

"What rule did you break?"

Pei Xiangque was terribly shy, but his personality was frank and straightforward, so he could only say, "Well, if you ask me this way, I'll tell you what you want."

Lu Yu really knows him very well, just like before, when the two of them were entangled on the bed, Lu Yu was covering Pei Xiangque's body, biting his ear like this, and calling him jokingly, "My golden Canary."

Pei Xiangque would open his teary eyes, and even if he was tired, he couldn't help but to respond, and would shrink even tighter.

He is lovable even with such a weakness.

It's fine if Pei Xiangque doesn't say anything, once he agrees, he will tell everything he remembers about Zhou Xiu.

Zhou Xiu married Pei Xiangque within two months of her mother's death.At that time, Pei Xiangque was still young, only five or six years old, a cute, lively and fluent speaking child.Although he missed his deceased mother very much, he at least had a young heart of respect for the new mother brought back by Pei Ding.Probably because of the successive funerals and wives, too much money was spent, and the family owed debts. Pei Xiangque's grandparents and father all went to work in the city, leaving only the new wife, Zhou Xiu, to take care of the children and take care of the fields.

The day after Pei Ding and his party left, Zhou Xiu locked Pei Xiangque in that small warehouse without warning.Pei Xiangque remembered that he had finished his breakfast and was helping Zhou Xiu wash the dishes. It was winter, and his hands were red from the cold under the cold water, thinking that he had to be very obedient.

Zhou Xiu closed the courtyard door outside, broke in suddenly, dragged him out, and threw him into the small warehouse.

For no reason, Zhou Xiu threw in a few steamed buns every two days, and poured out the spittoon every few days to ensure that Pei Xiangque would not die in it. Besides, Pei Xiangque hadn't seen the sun for half a year, and hadn't been out of that spittoon. Small warehouse door.

It wasn't until Pei Ding couldn't bear the fatigue of work, and Zhou Xiu's belly became too big, that he couldn't move, Pei Xiangque was released a few days in advance, dressed up like a doll, waiting for Pei Ding home.

Being locked up at such a young age and never communicating with others for half a year, such a child may suffer from many diseases.Everyone is different, Pei Xiangque was lucky, he was not completely shut down, he just couldn't speak, and he couldn't understand other people's words.

On the day when he saw the sun again, Pei Xiangque looked up at the sky, but covered his eyes with his fingers, thinking, what luck.

He thought he would never come out one day.

Pei Ding naturally wondered if Zhou Xiu had abused Pei Xiangque, otherwise, how could a good child become a dumb idiot after half a year.But Zhou Xiu was very good at talking, she was pregnant and swore, so she asked Pei Ding to ask the people in the same village if they had heard her beating and scolding the child, and there was indeed no trace of injury on Pei Xiangque's body. Can let it go.The Pei family was poor and couldn't afford to go to a big hospital, so they went to the hospital in the town. The barefoot doctor didn't know what a mental illness was, and after a random diagnosis and treatment, he said it was an unknown congenital disease. , now it's silly.

Not long after, Zhou Xiu gave birth to Pei Xianglong, another boy. Pei Ding even brought Pei Xiangque's grandparents to forget that there was another Pei Xiangque, and gave all his favor to the lively, healthy and intelligent newborn. Son.

The opportunity for Pei Xiangque to go to school was obtained by himself, and it was also because his mother's good sister taught in the school.The kind-hearted aunt came to Pei's house repeatedly to persuade her, and finally even threatened her, saying that it was illegal to allow her child to receive a nine-year education, so she had no choice but to send him to school.

Pei Xiangque was treated as a fool by the whole family and even the whole village, even though his academic performance was not bad.At that time, whenever he finished the exam and he did well in the exam, some people would laugh at those who failed the exam. They were not as good as fools. After such a long day, he didn't make a single friend in school.

Pei Xiangque was slow in speaking, and it took him a long, long time to finish talking about his long journey of growth. There were some places where he didn't want to go into details, but Lu Yu kept asking him, telling him to tell him. , which made him feel as if he was taking Uncle Lu's sympathy for his suffering.

But those painful pasts are gone. Now that he has Uncle Lu, why do he care about those?Uncle Lu still felt sorry for him, but Pei Xiangque couldn't bear to feel sorry for his Uncle Lu.

At the end of his talk, he was quite heartless, and he still wanted to comfort Uncle Lu who was obviously unhappy because of his own affairs, "Actually, nothing, nothing. Although I'm not very good at talking, but I didn't, It's not stupid. I didn't make friends before because they were not good and there was no need to make friends. Now it's different, with Lu..."

In the end, I was still not too embarrassed, and vaguely skipped the three words I knew well, and added another sentence, "And now I feel that this disease may not be all bad. Uncle Lu's disease, It's useless for other people to sing, but for me to sing, Uncle Lu can fall asleep. Maybe it's just because of this disease. It doesn't seem so bad then."

Lu Yu's throat twitched, "How can you think so?"

Pei Xiangque couldn't see Lu Yu's expression clearly at this time, but just smiled innocently, "I'm sick, it's already like this. I want to feel better, and always think about the good."

He continued in his heart, because Uncle Lu was the best thing.If this disease was obtained because it could cure Uncle Lu's disease, then it couldn't be worth it.
