Stand-in Raiders

"Dad, Xiaoya." Father Xiao saw the old man of the Xiao family sitting in the hall as soon as he entered the door, and hurried over, "Old Xiao, welcome to my Xiao family as a guest."

For this old man from the imperial capital, the members of the Xiao family warmly entertained him out of a sense of innocence. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "people do not fight with officials", even the Xiao family will not take the initiative to offend those officials. , when you can hold it, hold it. If you really encounter something that makes people unable to bear it, you will be beaten to death with a stick, and you will never give anyone a chance to come back.

"Oh, it's Xiao Xiao." The old man looked Xiao's father up and down, "I remember the last time I saw you, Xiao Ping was just born. Is this Xiao Ping?"

The old man looked at Xiao Ping who was walking behind Father Xiao, "It was so small back then, I remember I hugged it."

Mr. Xiao called Xiao Ping to his side, "This is indeed Xiao Ping. You happened to be in City A when you gave birth to him, but you haven't been to City A for more than 30 years since you returned to the imperial capital, right? You're already an adult."

"That's not true." The old man didn't deny Mr. Xiao's words, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "I've been living in the imperial capital for so many years, and I can't even leave when I get old."

"Haha, who said, didn't you just come here? How about it? Now, although City A is more prosperous than God, it's not bad, right?" Mr. Xiao laughed twice, "This is all these decades. The changes are astonishing.”

"I haven't been to City A for many years. How could City A look like this at the beginning?" said the old man of the Xiao family, "I still remember City A decades ago, when the tallest buildings were only a dozen floors , nowhere is it like now, with dozens of floors at every turn, I almost couldn't find my way."

"That's right, when I took root in City A, how could I have thought of so much?" Mr. Xiao also sighed, "I can only say that I am lucky."

The two old men began to reminisce about the past, and the few people who couldn't get in their mouths could only listen silently.

From the prosperous city A to the devastated country after the eight-year war of resistance, from the reform and opening up to the tragedy of the Great Revolution...

"At that time, we were all sorry for you." At the end of the speech, the old man ended with this sentence, and then refused when Mr. Xiao invited him to stay for dinner, "I have to go to other places to see at night, just Don't disturb your family for dinner."

"Then I'll ask Xiao Huang to send you to the hotel. The people who sent you here should all be waiting in the hotel, right?" Mr. Xiao and the old man walked out side by side, "Be careful when you go back."

When he reached the gate, Mr. Xiao watched the old man leave, and was helped by Father Xiao to the dining room for dinner.

"Grandpa, do you have a good relationship with that old man from the Xiao family?" After eating, Xiao Ping sat on the sofa with the old man, "I've never seen that old man before."

"He..." Mr. Xiao shook his head and didn't tell Xiao Ping, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart after all, "There's nothing to say. Don't ask."

That old man was his elder brother, his own elder brother, the kind with the same father and mother. Unfortunately, because of that disaster back then, a good family was so torn apart and could never go back.

Mr. Xiao's parents are intellectuals. Mr. Xiao was a person who had stayed abroad at the beginning, and the wife he married was naturally the best, but even this well-matched family was finally regarded as a villain at that time. thief.Later, Mrs. Xiao left with her two children, leaving only Mrs. Xiao and his sick mother, who had had enough of the hardships of that era.

Old Mrs. Xiao may have changed his surname to Xiao to avoid disaster. He has nothing to do with the Xiao family in City A, and he did not even set foot in City A again after he died.

This time, the old man from the Xiao family came not only to visit old friends, but also to tell Mr. Xiao the news of his father's death.

At the beginning, he walked resolutely, but now, Mr. Xiao doesn't feel that he is going to the imperial capital, "Old man, old man, I won't go through this experience to suffer."

On this day, Mr. Xiao went upstairs after drinking a pot of tea.

Just like that, another half month passed, during which Du Hainian returned to City A "on time", then went to Du's house to visit Mr. Du, and then became a dutiful son in front of his bed.

Du Hainian asked many people to analyze the data reports he got directly from the hospital, but each of them told him the same answer.

Is it really sick?

This day was Xiao's mother's birthday, Xiao's father and Xiao Ping went to the company in the morning, and returned to Xiao's old house during lunch, and then prepared to celebrate Xiao's mother with the family at night.

Although it was a celebration, the dinner was not too rich, not even fish, because Xiao's mother had a little reaction these days, and she felt sick to her stomach when she asked about the fishy smell, so the whole family ate a table of materials tonight .

Xiao Ping was originally the master of all kinds of meat and joy, but unfortunately today's birthday is the oldest, so he can only eat vegetables for dinner.

"I'm 50 years old today, I'm old." After dinner, Mother Xiao accepted the gift from Xiao Ping and Li Yunian, and couldn't help sighing, "I can only rely on you from now on."

"Mom, you're still young!" Xiao Ping rubbed against Xiao's mother, "Dad, don't you think so?"

Father Xiao also nodded, and did not disrespect his son, "Yes, Xiaoya, you are still young, we are only halfway through this day, how can you say you are old? You go out now and point Some people may think you are a daughter-in-law in her 30s."

Xiao's father stood on the other side of Xiao's mother, and Xiao Ping sat on the left and right of Xiao's mother, watching Xiao's mother slowly unwrapping the gift for him on the table.

In addition to these presents from the few people in the house, many of these gifts were delivered by couriers from outside friends, colleagues, or entrusted persons. Even if she only wanted to have an ordinary birthday at home, Mother Xiao still Received many gifts.

"Who gave this to you? It's very delicate!" Mother Xiao unwrapped a beautifully packaged gift box. Inside was a very beautiful crystal sculpture, which was a miniature version of the Madonna. blessings.

Xiao Ping took the gift-wrapping box from Xiao's mother, and after searching carefully on it, he found the name written on it with a signature pen, "Mom, it's Wei Lin, Li Yunian's classmate. Before he had an accident, you still went to the hospital to see him." But his sister is one of my secretaries."

"It's that guy, he has his heart." Xiao's mother has a good impression of Wei Lin. She can teach a younger sister like Wei Qi. This brother is naturally an excellent person. It's just a pity. "He now How is it? Are you awake?"

"I woke up, and I'm still doing treatment in City B." Xiao Ping didn't know much about Xu Feng and Wei Lin's current situation, only that Wei Lin had woken up.

"It's good to wake up, what a good guy, just suffered this." Mother Xiao put the things in her hand aside, and continued to dismantle another, but she still said to the people around, "You guys In the future, those who drive and ride in the car should pay attention, and think more about the family members, what should I do if something happens to you. "

When Wei Lin was mentioned, Mother Xiao couldn't help thinking of his injuries, and she wondered if pregnant women were more fragile and prone to overthinking. Mother Xiao found it unacceptable for Wei Lin's experience to be applied to anyone in the family.

"We will definitely pay attention, Mom, don't think too much." Noticing that Xiao's mother was in a bad mood, Xiao Ping hurriedly comforted him, "Isn't this the car that I have been riding for so many years? Isn't it all good and never left?" Don't worry about it, Mom."

Xiao's father also found out that his daughter-in-law was wrong, so he directly interrupted the act of unwrapping the presents, and took Xiao's mother upstairs to wash and sleep.

It's already eleven o'clock. Today, because of Mother Xiao's birthday, everyone didn't go upstairs to go to bed in advance, except for Mr. Xiao who had to go to bed early because of his age. Hour.

After Xiao's father took Xiao's mother upstairs, Xiao Ping also took Li Yunian, who had already started to doze off, back to the apartment in the urban area.

Li Yunian got up early this morning to pack his things, and then he went back to put down the things he added or brought to the old house for use in the past few days. Naturally, his upper and lower eyelids are constantly fighting, and he has long been sleepy.

But Xiao's mother was so excited that he didn't say that he wanted to leave, he could only wait on the sidelines. When they were talking just now, Li Yunian was sitting on the side, his head was bit by bit, and he was about to fall asleep.

"The house has been cleaned up. I'll go back to take a shower and go to sleep." Xiao Ping led Li Yunian into the car, leaned down to fasten Li Yunian's seat belt, and then touched Li Yunian's face and said, "You worked hard today, sleep well after you go back."

Li Yunian gave a dazed "hmm" as an answer, and then closed his eyes, not sure if he was asleep or not.

Xiao Ping looked at Li Yunian's appearance, walked around to the other side, and started the car.

Along the way, the car drove very smoothly, and Xiao Ping also deliberately avoided those small stones and uneven potholes on the road, just to let Li Yunian sleep more peacefully and not be awakened by the sudden vibration.

When he got home, Li Yunian hadn't woken up yet, Xiao Ping got out of the car and carried Li Yunian out, carried Li Yunian all the way home, and then went back to the parking garage and locked the car door.

When Xiao Ping put Li Yunian on the sofa and lowered his head to give him slippers, Li Yunian half opened his eyes and looked at the top of Xiao Ping's head.

Xiao Ping's hair was cut very short, but it was very hard. Li Yunian still remembered how it felt when he touched it, and the one facing him was the curl on top of Xiao Ping's head.
