born to ashes

"In the future, if I raise you, you won't be my daddy Wei, you have to call me daddy." Josh laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes.

"Wake up, Dad."

Wei Linze took a spoonful of his bowl of unsweetened shaved ice, chewed a raisin, and in the middle of the tasteless beans and ice, sweetened it unexpectedly, making his teeth tremble with sweetness.

He said in a tone as calm as possible: "The current situation of our family is that there are two unemployed young people. I'm afraid you will have to use the northwest wind to support my father."

"It's not two unemployed young people." Josh nodded with satisfaction at the title of father, and said with a smile, "You must be considered a middle-aged unemployed."?

"You don't care if you are young or not, we all have to do what you do." Wei Linze replied.

"Which old business? I have a lot of old business."

"Moving bricks is what you talk about most." Wei Linze bent his arms and gestured his muscles, "The two of us will go to your old construction site to contribute to urban construction."

Josh poked his biceps hard, "I repeat, I was twisting steel bars, not moving bricks."

"You have to think about twisting the steel bars..." Wei Linze stretched out his hand and took a look, "It's also reliable to set up a stall under the school flyover to sell Malatang."

Wei Linze's hands are beautiful, Josh has always thought so.Those hands can only be possessed by a person who has held a pen all his life, especially when he is paired with a pen. The pen pose also looks very nice.

With such hands, counting the money earned from selling Malatang, it has a special flavor.

"At that time, you can just collect the money, and I will make Malatang." Josh said.

Wei Linze didn't speak, just smiled and dug another spoonful of shaved ice.

Josh saw that his bowl of tasteless shaved ice was almost bottomed out, and he had only eaten a few mouthfuls of his own, so he couldn't help but put a spoon into his bowl, wanting to taste how this non-sweet shaved ice came to be Such a big draw.

Wei Linze also protected his bowl like he did just now.

"What's the matter, it's not sweet." Josh put away the spoon with his mouth curled up.

Wei Linze said mysteriously: "Actually, it's really sweet." After speaking, he dug a large spoonful and put it into his mouth.

"No..." Josh wanted to say it was impossible, but the word "possible" was stuck back in his mouth.

Wei Linze propped his hands on the table, leaned over and touched his lips with his lips, and licked the corner of his mouth with the tip of his tongue.

"Say it yourself, isn't it sweet?"

It's... so sweet.

Josh's nervous system that could respond was paralyzed.

There are twinkling little stars in front of my eyes, and my mind goes back and forth, "Twinkle twinkle bright, the sky is full of Wei Xingxing."

My mind is full of Wei Xingxing.

Wei Xingxing didn't care about it, and silently retreated to finish the last spoonful of shaved ice.

Josh sat across from him and pointed his finger at him, his voice was full of seduction, "Come here, I'll tell you if it's right."

"No." Wei Linze was sober-minded not to be fooled.

Josh simply stood up and walked around to Wei Linze, bent down and stared into his eyes, "Beauty, you just follow me." He pressed the back of Wei Linze's head and kissed him. One set, directly turning active into passive, pried open his teeth.

Then, Josh let out a menacing belch.

One passed, and then came the second, rushing up from the chest in short bursts, crisp and clear.

"You... hiccup, you fucking hiccup, I... hiccup." The more Josh wanted to speak, the more he hiccupped, almost crying, Wei Linze shrugged his shoulders and couldn't stop laughing, almost hiccupping Son, "Hahaha, this hiccup has a sense of rhythm."

Josh was so busy hiccupping that he didn't even have the energy to scold him, so he could only point to the tip of his nose and stare several times.

Wei Linze brought him the shaved ice, and the rhythm of his laughter miraculously matched the rhythm of Josh's hiccups, "Hurry up and drink a few sips."

"You fucking... hiccups are laughing at my face with drool!" Josh scolded, "Smile, you know how to laugh!"

Wei Linze stopped laughing, and suddenly became serious, "I feel it too."

"What? You fucking slobbered, hiccupped, and laughed all over your face?" Josh simply broke the can, and didn't care if he hiccuped or not, anyway, enough embarrassment is enough.

"Drool belching? You're quite creative...No," Wei Linze immediately changed the focus, "I mean, I can feel the water, too. It's probably going to rain."

As soon as the three words "It's going to rain" fell, the raindrops fell like money. The raindrops were big, and it was rushing and fast. One second before, it turned into a splashing posture in an instant.

"Are you a crow!" Josh yelled while dragging Wei Linze to run, his eyes were so drenched that he couldn't open his eyes.

Wei Linze laughed while running, today is really unlucky.

A small group of people sheltered from the rain gathered under the eaves of the supermarket. Josh and Wei Linze broke in through the rain, leaving wet footprints on the concrete floor. water stains.

The two looked at each other's wet clothes, dripping hair and eyelashes with small drops of water, and laughed face to face.

Josh wiped the water from his face and said, "When we set up a stall in the future, we must build a small shed, the kind that is not afraid of the rain."

Wei Linze felt that Josh was joking, but in fact, he had the idea of ​​opening a store, and he happened to have some money in his hand, so he couldn't really just sit and eat.I've had some ideas before, but I just haven't been free.

He and Zheng Fei were squatting in front of the hospital in Haicheng, smoking. Zheng Fei kicked a stone on the ground and said, "It just so happens that I have some money, so I can be a shareholder for you."

"Come on, you know what I'm going to do? You're the shareholder." Josh flicked the cigarette ash.

"What are you doing? It must be a serious business, right?"

"I think it's good to open a restaurant. I cook such delicious food, so I can't let this talent go to waste." Josh said.

Zheng Fei crushed out the cigarette butt on the steps, "Then I really don't dare to invest in you. Your cooking skills are really mediocre. If you look around, only your family Wei Linze will cheer you on. At that time, you only earn his money."

"What money do you earn me?"

Wei Linze came out from the entrance of the hall, and heard Zheng Fei talking about how to earn his money.

"Don't talk to him." Josh threw most of the remaining cigarettes into the trash can next to him. Zheng Fei saw his little action and gave him a blank look. The two stood up and patted their pants, "Xiezhi and you What did you say? Did you praise me?"

"Praise you." Wei Linze smiled with narrowed eyes.

Wei Linze decided to come to Haicheng to see Cheng Jie on the spur of the moment. He didn't have to go to class, and he was free when he was free. It happened that the hospitals in Haicheng were almost ready, so he decided to advance the operation time.

Coming to Haicheng, Josh made full preparations and even brought Zheng Fei along, just because he was afraid that Lu Chen would do something.As a result, when they got here, they didn't even see Lu Chen's shadow. Cheng Jiezhi was lying on the hospital bed looking out the window in a daze, and Yan Jia was reading a book beside him. Neither of them were lively people, and the whole room was quiet and the sound of needles dropping could be heard.

Cheng Jiezhi's lips were a little chapped, but the color was bright red. He forced a smile and left Wei Linze alone to talk.

"Curious. What did you whisper?" Josh asked Wei Linze.

Wei Linze kept silent, "It's all whispered, so I definitely can't tell you."

Josh curled his lips and didn't continue to ask. The air in Haicheng made people feel better. He said: "Tomorrow, the mobilization agent will be administered. By then, my back may be sore and I may feel uncomfortable. Do you want to go to the beach now? Go for a stroll?"

Wei Linze nodded, pointed to the sea outside and said, "Tell you, I've been to this place before."

Yan Jia was peeling an apple in the ward, and there was a long piece of apple peel hanging from under the knife. From the beginning to the end of the peel, the apple peel was intact and unbroken.Cheng Jiezhi looked at the apple peel in a daze, until the last bit peeled off the apple, and the rest fell to the ground.

"Teacher Wei is a good person." Yan Jia cut the apple into small pieces and handed it to Cheng Jiezhi.

"Teacher Wei..." He smiled and nodded in agreement, "He's a good guy."

Cheng Jiezhi stared at the ceiling, as if talking to himself, "When I was young, I thought I would be Teacher Cheng, but turned out to be 585, the third prison in Zhucheng. Now I look at Wei Linze, as if he stole my future, but For such a gentle person, it is hard to blame him... It is true that since the fertilized egg, his luck has been good, and he has stolen all the luck of our remaining experimental subjects, Jiajia."

If it wasn't for the last "Jia Jia", Yan Jia wouldn't have thought he was talking to her at all.

"There is no one with smooth sailing, and the suffering will always end. Sometimes it is fast and sometimes it is slow. Teacher Wei is good-natured, so he may not suffer less than anyone else." Yan Jia also thought of himself. In this life, there is no one who does not suffer. ?After she finished speaking, she felt more and more like inspirational chicken soup, and smiled embarrassedly.

"I'm purely jealous," Cheng Jie said with the most reasonable expression on his face, "Jealousy makes me haggard day by day."

"Did I not tell you my story?" Yan Jia spoke on her own. She usually speaks slowly and softly, but her voice is a little low. This time, she speaks a little fast. It is obvious that the voice is a little hoarse, and occasionally some words cannot be pronounced.

She continued without waiting for Cheng Jiezhi's answer: "Actually, I am not the biological daughter of the Haicheng Yan family, I was adopted. Do you know why my voice is like this? When I was very young, I was abused by my mother and scalded with hot oil. At that time I almost gave up half my life, if it weren't for my current parents, I might not even be ordered to see you now."

After Yan Jia finished speaking, she let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that when she brought it up after so many years, it was just a past event that could be told lightly.

For most people, in this life, how can there be no hurdles?Everyone doesn't say it, it doesn't mean there isn't one.After the real experience has passed, in fact, there is really nothing worth talking about.

Cheng Jiezhi didn't know whether he listened or not, when Yan Jia looked at him again, he had already closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The wind was beating against the glass windows of the ward outside, and the smell of the sea breeze was forced into the room through the cracks, and there was a bit of sweetness in the cool fishy smell.

Wei Linze and Josh sat on the beach by the sea, surrounded by small shells, broken glass bottles and scattered plastic bottles. Josh looked at the sea level in the distance and asked, "Do you have a dream? What goal have you been surviving all these years?"

"It's a dream... I want to have a safe and stable home." Wei Linze said.

The author has something to say:

You said, isn't it sweet?
