mountain sleep

"Think!" Yao Ge smiled so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes, sweet dimples floated on his face, "Are you coming to pick me up?"

"Hello, uncle!"

"Hello, uncle."

Xu Zihang and Peng Dong followed, and the normally noisy people turned into little cats now.

"My father is here to pick me up, so I won't leave with you." Yao Ge held his father's hand tightly, fearing that it would take another few months for him to leave.

"Are you Yao Ge's good friends?" Yao Zhencheng greeted them and asked, "Where do you live, do you want to take uncle's car back?"

"No, no, our house is very close!" Xu Zihang answered first, "Then let's go, see you in the afternoon." Saying that, he pushed Peng Dong forward.

Peng Dong turned his head to look at it from time to time, lowered his voice and said to Xu Zihang: "Wow, their family has a car, cool!"

Among their friends, only Li Chengjin's family has a car.Yao Ge usually gave people a little different feeling. When he bought snacks after school, the money he took out was five or ten yuan, which was a huge sum of money in Peng Dong's view.

Xu Zihang nodded in agreement: "It's really cool."

Yao Ge never mentioned his parents, Xu Zihang only knew that he lived with his grandparents.Jinshan Community is a very high-end community in Kawashima City. The children's concept of being rich is still vague, but people like Yao Ge are considered very rich in their hearts.

"Father! Why did you come back suddenly today?" Yao Ge was a little excited after getting into the car, "Shall we go home?"

Yao Zhencheng looked at his son's expectant face, and a trace of guilt flashed in his heart.The news that Yang Yiwen agreed to divorce really made him breathe a sigh of relief. The marriage between him and Yang Yiwen could finally come to an end. Immediately afterwards, he began to think about how to win the custody of his son. Yao Ge and him are still relatively close , this he is confident.

"Don't go home yet, let's go to Aunt Xiaoqin's, she made your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs." Yao Zhencheng patted his son's head coming from the back seat, "Sit down and be careful."

"Oh." Yao Ge calmed down, and leaned over to the window to watch.They are still near the campus, and they can see a few familiar classmates on the road.

After a few seconds, Yao Ge asked again: "When shall we go home?"

Yao Zhencheng looked at him from the rearview mirror. When his son asked this question, he was still looking out of the window. He responded, "Hurry up."

The car drove into the neighborhood that Yao Ge was very familiar with, and his high mood just now gradually calmed down.Follow Dad upstairs and watch Dad take the key to open the door, and there is a pair of his exclusive slippers on the shoe rack.

"Are you back?" A woman wearing an apron greeted her and took Yao Zhencheng's bag, "Little Ge, wash your hands and prepare to eat."

"Hello, Aunt Xiaoqin." Yao Ge said hello, knelt down to arrange his shoes, hesitated for a while, and put on his exclusive slippers.

A junior high school boy was kneeling beside the coffee table, and he never took his eyes off the TV when he saw them coming.

Yao Zhencheng walked over and patted the boy on the head: "What are you looking at, Fanfan?"

"TV." The boy moved his lips weakly, as if he didn't want to talk to him.

"How are you talking? Did you call for someone?" Xiaoqin scolded at the side, and then Zhou Fan grumbled, "Hello, Uncle Cheng."She was a little embarrassed and winked at her son.

Yao Zhencheng was used to it, and said to Xiaoqin, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

He went to the dining table and saw that there were not only sweet and sour pork ribs, but also a plate of rice balls shaped like rabbits, showing how hard the cooks were.Yao Zhencheng pursed his lips and raised his voice: "Come here and see what Auntie Xiaoqin has done for you." Calling his son over, "Thank you, Auntie Xiaoqin."

It was his son who was yelling, but his eyes were on the woman who was taking off her apron. The two of them looked at each other and expressed their affection.

"Thank you, Auntie Xiaoqin." Yao Ge looked at the plate of delicate and cute rabbit rice balls, without any desire to eat them.The short-haired boy rolled his eyes, threw the remote control on the sofa, stood up and sat down slowly.

Yao Zhencheng helped his son put a rabbit in a bowl, and asked him: "Dad is not here for a few months, do you think about Aunt Xiaoqin's craftsmanship?" in the bowl.

"That's right, Xiao Ge, my aunt said that I can come here by myself when I want to eat."

Yao Ge lowered his head and forked the rabbit's head: "Grandma's cooking is also delicious."

His father and mother used to have different time at home. When mother was at home, they always went to eat at grandma’s house. Eat at Aunt Qin's house.

"Are you holding a sports meeting these days?" The woman is very good at observing words and expressions, and she tried to change the subject when the topic just now showed signs of freezing, "Did Xiao Ge participate?"

"No." Yao Ge chopped up the rabbit rice ball's body with a fork, and suddenly raised his head and asked his father, "Dad, did you kiss your mother?"

A question stunned the two adults at the dinner table, and they looked at each other.Zhou Fan choked on the rice, coughing loudly while laughing.

The woman stopped talking, got up and went to the kitchen to serve soup, and called her son by the way: "Come and help me in the kitchen." Zhou Fan threw the chopsticks on the table and stood up lazily, piercing the frozen air with a slap.

"How do you ask this? Who taught you that." Yao Zhencheng laughed, "Don't ask so many questions, kid."

"My classmate said he saw his parents kissing," Yao Ge repeated, insisting on asking, "Can you and your mother kiss?"

Yao Zhencheng was silent for a few seconds, then put down his chopsticks: "It would have been a long time ago, but it won't now."

"why?"

"Yao Ge," Yao Zhencheng said to his son in such a serious tone, "you are an older child, and Dad always said to be honest, so Dad will tell you the truth, because Dad and Mom have no relationship. You also see We often quarreled when we met, last time," Yao Zhencheng sighed thinking of the chaotic scene last time, "Dad didn't think of you last time, I'm sorry, I apologize to you."

Yao Zhencheng paused for a moment, and seeing that Yao Ge was still staring at him, he finally asked straightforwardly: "If Mom and Dad get divorced, are you willing to follow Dad? Don't answer me now, Dad's project is not over yet. I'm here to see you, I'm leaving soon, you should think about it at your grandpa and grandma's house, okay?"

Yao Ge quickly turned his face to Mi Fan, this is not his home, he can't cry.He stuffed a mouthful of rice into his mouth, and Yao Zhencheng sandwiched a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs for him.

Swallowing the rice in one bite, he choked a little, Yao Ge swallowed hard, his throat was sore from the rice.

Yao Zhencheng winked at the woman standing in the kitchen looking towards them, Xiaoqin came over and sat down again, and put the soup in front of Yao Ge: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

The boy who has been watching the show is in a good mood. He has no father since he was a child. Frankly speaking, Yao Zhencheng is good, he is good to him and his mother, and he is rich, but he is not happy if he never divorces.

As soon as Zhou Fan sat down, he changed his previous bad attitude, and turned to watch the excitement and asked Yao Zhencheng without hesitation: "When will Uncle Cheng plan to marry my mother, I am ready." Then he turned to Yao Ge and said, "I will cover you from now on, you are my younger brother."

"Okay, what are you doing! Don't interfere with adults' affairs." Xiaoqin tapped her son's bowl with her chopsticks.

Yao Ge pursed his lips, squeezed the chopsticks tightly in his hand: "No."

"You're not my brother!" Yao Ge stared fiercely at the boy gloating in front of him, feeling pain in his eye sockets.

"No, Xiao Ge, don't listen to his nonsense, eat obediently." Xiaoqin turned her head and said to Yao Zhencheng, who was about to say something else, "I'll talk about it later, eat well first."

Yao Ge took a deep breath and stopped talking. He didn't touch the sweet and sour pork ribs or the bowl of soup, and just ate the white rice in mouthfuls.

Yao Zhencheng saw it, and knew that it would take time for a child to accept it. He glanced at the young man who proudly raised his eyebrows at him, pinched the center of his brows, and said nothing more.

"I'm going to school." As soon as he finished eating the rice in the bowl, Yao Ge asked, "I'm going to my classmate's house."

"Let's go." Yao Zhencheng cast a comforting look at the woman, "Father will take you there."

Back in the car again, the excitement when I came here has long since disappeared.

"Where is the classmate's home?"

"Datong Road."

After saying this, the father and son fell silent.After a long time, Yao Ge asked, "If you choose Dad, do you want to live with Aunt Xiaoqin?"

"Auntie Xiaoqin treats you well, right? You love all the dishes she cooks, and you said you liked her very much before, didn't you?" Yao Zhencheng was silent for a while, "As for Fanfan...you are both boys and have been together for a long time. That's fine, he's a good boy, too."

Yao Ge didn't answer, he lowered his head to adjust the school badge on his chest, took it off and put it on again.

"Stop at this intersection." Yao Ge said aloud, "Here we are."

Yao Zhencheng stopped the car on the side of the road and turned to look at his son: "Yao Ge, Dad knows that you are a bit difficult to accept, but I still hope you think about it, okay? Don't you want to go home with Dad?"

They want to go home together, not go to Aunt Xiaoqin's house together.Yao Ge put his hand on the handle, stared into his father's eyes and asked him an irrelevant question: "Will you kiss Aunt Xiaoqin?"

Yao Zhencheng's lips moved slightly, and he replied, "Yes."

Yao Ge nodded, opened the door and got out of the car without even saying goodbye.Yao Zhencheng sat in the car, watched his figure turn into the alley, sighed deeply, sat in the car for a long time, then restarted and drove away.

When he walked into the alley near Xu Zihang's house, Yao Ge couldn't help it a little bit. He supported the wall with his arms, buried his face in it, and pressed his eyes hard so that tears would not fall out.

Liar, and said to take him home, it's a lie!He doesn't want him anymore, wants someone else to be his son... Mom is a liar too, neither of them want him anymore...

There is a reason why Yao Ge lived with his grandparents.His parents quarreled that day, and both of them slammed the door out, forgetting that Yao Ge was still at home.At night, Yao Ge was scared by himself, his voice was hoarse from crying. Fortunately, he had a PHS and could find out his grandfather's phone number.Grandpa came over overnight to pick him up, and he lived there for more than half a year.

Yao Ge thought angrily, I will not choose anyone, I will just follow my grandpa and grandma.

Yao Ge rubbed his eyes vigorously, and began to recite the Chinese text with sobs: "This plum blossom is the most famous flower in China, hiccup. The next flower, hiccup, probably blooms only in the warm spring. He, he is different, the more It is cold, the more the wind oppresses the snow, the more vigorous and beautiful the flowers bloom..."

He walked downstairs to Xu Zihang's house muttering, sat on the steps and recited three ancient poems twice, and after making sure that his voice sounded okay, he stood up and patted the dust off his buttocks, and started calling Xu Zihang.

Xu Zihang on the other end was reading manga with relish, when he heard the shout from downstairs, he was startled, thinking how time passed so quickly, he hadn't read it for long, rushed to the living room window and responded: "Come right now! After shouting, turning around, the clock in the living room showed that it was still some distance away from the usual time to go to school.

Although Xu Zihang was a little confused, he went back to his room to put away the comic books, took a box of chocolates from the desk, put on his sneakers and ran down.

"Why are you so early, isn't your father back?" Xu Zihang yelled as soon as he saw Yao Ge, "There is no one at school so early."

"Yeah." Yao Ge didn't answer his question, but picked his face, "What do you have for lunch?"

"My, my dad made hot and sour fish head soup, wow, it's super spicy, you can't eat it." Xu Zihang handed the chocolate in his hand to Yao Ge, with a little joy and pride in his tone, "My dad's former student You brought me something to eat when you came back from studying abroad, and I don’t like sweet things, so I’ll give it to you.”

"Thank you."

Yao Ge took it, a box of Ferrero, his family used to have a heart-shaped box, which was given to his mother by his father.Yao Ge held it in his hand and looked at it for a while.I don't know why I couldn't control my emotions, tears involuntarily came up and dripped on the packaging box, Yao Ge hurriedly wiped it with the back of his hand.

Xu Zihang next to him was startled, bent his head and tilted his head to look at his lowered face: "What's wrong? Did you get scolded by your father?" Although the possibility of Yao Ge being scolded by someone else's good boy is very small, but Xu Zihang was also not sure why Yao Ge, who was still happy when they parted at noon, suddenly behaved like this.

Yao Ge shook his head: "No."

Xu Zihang scratched his head, he didn't have much experience in comforting others, so he didn't know what to say at this moment.

"My parents are getting divorced." Yao Ge sniffed, and pressed his fingers on the sticker on the transparent box.
