Cinderella's Gypsophila

After school starts, about two weeks.

It is rare to leave school early one day.

Qi Yan poked Cheng Cheng with his elbow: "I'll take you to a fun place later!"

As he spoke, he wrote a small note.

While the teacher was out of sight, they smashed all kinds of things in the front and back rows.

【Playing arcade after school? 】

In this way, they made an appointment with a bunch of good friends, and after class, they would ride each other's bicycles, and together they would take Cheng Sheng to the legendary game arcade to "experience life".

The game hall is full of smog and colorful lights.

There are big men with colorful arms, jobless people, and elementary school students and junior high school students who are bluffing.

A noisy and strange world.

Qi Yan: "Come, come, let me show you what a real game is!"

It was the first time in Cheng Cheng's life that he touched the game controller.

Seeing all kinds of humanoid battles flashing on the screen, gorgeous moves and smooth movements, I feel amazing.

After half an hour.

"Amazing!" The little overlord Ji Nanqi was extremely impressed.

He is He De He Neng, great gods appear frequently around him!

On the other hand, my only advantage is that I am rich, tearful and silent.

Qi Yan, his former tablemate, was amazing——

Like the boys with good grades in the class next door, they are all so proud.He doesn't like to talk to "poor students" at all, and he is reluctant to even talk, as if he is afraid of encountering something dirty.

Their class is different.

The squad leader with the best grades is more down-to-earth than anyone else.After class, they would call their "poor students" brothers and sisters, eat and play games.

And now, even the serious brother of the squad leader...

Cheng Sheng's upright and serious face made Ji Nanqi think that he was on the same level as the "good students" in the next class with their eyes above their heads.

Never thought.

"Cheng Cheng Cheng Cheng, Mai Shiranui is too good at playing you, isn't it, is this really the first time playing?"

"Half an hour to torture me Yagami and King? You are so talented, I am convinced, I will practice again, and fight again next time!"

Really worthy of being the squad leader's brother, this game is really smooth.

Quite like a squad leader.

……

After playing for more than an hour, the time is almost up.

Qi Yan rides Cheng Sheng home by car.

Take a detour from a secluded residential area, where there are usually no people.

But today I met a little old man selling cotton candy in such a deserted place.

...will anyone actually buy it?

Seeing his thin clothes, Qi Yan stopped: "Cheng Cheng, eat cotton candy?"

Cheng Cheng actually remembered that Xiao Yan didn't like sweets very much, and secondly, he didn't like to eat "things that he couldn't get enough of".

But no matter what, he obediently took out the money and took two big and white dumplings from the grandfather.

Qi Yan also kindly showed his grandfather the way, and asked him to go to a vegetable market not far away, and the business would be much better.

The two found a broken flower bed, sat on the edge and ate slowly.

Qi Yan: "You're eating your face, look at you, you are so stupid!"

"Oh."

The boy rubbed it, but didn't rub it off.

Qi Yan just laughed at him, and at the same time reached out to wipe the corner of his lips for him.The boy's colorless lips pursed slightly, his body stiffened slightly.

"Hey, Cheng Cheng."

"Ok?"

"Recently, is there something on your mind?"

The boy froze and forgot to bite the cotton candy.

……

Sure enough, there is something on my mind.

Living under the same roof for several months, Qi Yan's ability to "observe" Cheng Cheng is increasing day by day.

In fact, he had already discovered it, but he was more convinced just now in the game arcade - Cheng Cheng looked smiling, but he was politely "cooperating" with Ji Nanqi and the others.

The game itself was fun, but it didn't make him happy.

It seemed that something was on his mind during this time.

Heavy, a little gloomy, and a little tired.

Qi Yan sighed quietly.

Reach out and touch.

My brother is very "good", always has been.

Never naughty, never willful.

Even if it hurts, I always try my best to bear it.Meng Xinlan has always been complacent about her son's "well-behaved and sensible at a young age" personality, and Qi Shengbin also feels that this is a good quality that should be learned.

But in fact, what a fart to learn?

so depressing.

It hurts just to look at it.

Qi Yan thought about himself, and then about Xiao Yue.

A child who has been loved always has a vigor in his bones.I want and fight for the things I like, and I will cry, make trouble, and vent when I am sad, even if my mother is no longer around.

This is a living person, a person with joy, anger, sorrow and joy!

"Brother, is your trouble related to my father and your mother?"

There is also a basis for this guess.

Because not only Cheng Sheng, Qi Shengbin and Meng Xinlan are also somewhat weird recently.

Especially Meng Xinlan.

She used to be bad, poisonous, tacky and arrogant, but recently she has become sentimental for no reason.

Qi Yan still remembers that once he and his brother were locked in the room to do a problem, Meng Xinlan suddenly knocked on the door, and no matter what, he wanted Cheng Cheng to go out and chat with her for a while.

Chatting is just chatting, it is normal for a mother to chat with her son.

however.

"Woooo, I thought... I thought I was your best friend!"

"You actually said that your schoolmates are your good friends?"

just started crying.

Moreover, it is not the usual shrew crying, but like the heroine of a bitter drama crying.

Cheng Cheng panicked.

Qi Yan who was passing by was completely questioned.

Auntie, are you... serious?

With your usual behavior, you still expect your son to be your "best friend", what are you thinking?trouble making?

However, similar things happened many times during this time.

Meng Xinlan is always weird.

All kinds of inexplicable sorrow came from it, and I was so weak all day long, I felt as if I was possessed by the crescent moon.

until today.

The long-standing abnormality finally had an explanation.

"……Pregnant?"

Cheng Cheng lowered his eyes and nodded.

He secretly grabbed Qi Yan's sleeve.

Meng Xinlan was pregnant and found out a while ago.

She and Qi Shengbin were both secretly happy and nervous——

The main reason is that the two of them haven't received the certificate yet, and they can't get the certificate.But in their small county, the family planning policy is very strict.

The appeal of "fewer births and better births, late marriage and late childbearing, and a couple with only one child" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The second child will be fined and dismissed from public office.

Children born out of wedlock are the key targets.

So the two of them didn't let Cheng Cheng tell Qi Yan, and kept tight-lipped about the neighbors and the butcher couple downstairs.

If someone reported it, the Family Planning Office would definitely come and arrest him, and the child would definitely be lost.

Cheng Sheng tried his best to keep it a secret.

But he couldn't sleep well for several weeks, especially when he looked at Xiao Yan, he often felt guilty.

He knew the concerns of those two people, but he felt that their behavior...was really unfair to Xiao Yan.

Children cannot hide.

It will also grow a little bit in the stomach.At three months, five months, seven months, can we still hide?

When the time comes, let Xiao Yan find out for himself, how uncomfortable will he be?

Do you think everyone has lied to him?

Moreover, if the conflict breaks out when it can't be hidden, will it be easy to deal with it?It is not difficult to solve the problem by dragging.

……

Qi Yan was stunned for a while.

I'm pregnant and I'm going to have another one.

In fact, as early as a few days after Meng Xinlan lived in this house, he passed by the door of the master bedroom and heard her coaxing Qi Shengbin inside: "Let's work hard to have a good son who is fat, obedient and healthy."

Cheng Cheng is not healthy enough, and Qi Yan is not obedient enough, they are not satisfied.

So, I want to create a satisfactory one.

Ah.

It doesn't matter whether you are worthy or not?

Qi Yan ate the marshmallow in a few mouthfuls, and stood up: "The two of them didn't get the certificate, how did they have sex? Isn't it legal?"

Cheng Cheng lowered his eyes: "They..."

Qi Shengbin and Meng Xinlan had planned it out.

He planned to hide it first, and when he couldn't hide it, he would go to the countryside to hide for a while until the child was born.

Anyway, if you are really born, you can't be a black household all your life, right?There is always a way.

Qi Yan smiled: "So, if you don't tell me, you are afraid that I will report it, right?"

"..."

"That's fine, I'll really go, let's go."

Cheng Cheng: "Xiao Yan!"

Qi Yan: "..."

"Just kidding, don't be so nervous."

He's not that stupid.

If you really report it, where will your brother be placed?

What's more, if what happened to the "crystallization of love" between the dog and man and woman because of him, he wouldn't have to be killed directly?

Qi Yan sighed, lowered his eyes, and took Cheng Cheng's hand.

My brother's palms were cold and sweaty.

"Let's go home." Qi Yan said.

"Relax, I don't blame you, why are you blaming yourself?"

……

The last part of the way back, there was a slight wind.

There is a row of red-leaf plums on the road near my house, which always bloom first in March, snow-white and pink.Swaying in the wind.

When Qi Yan passed by on his bicycle, he suddenly remembered.

Once upon a time, there was also such a sunset with a little afterglow.

Mom took him and his sister to take pictures.

Just under the red leaf plum.

Mom was wearing a white dress that day, and she had a beautiful necklace around her neck, which seemed to be the one she had been looking for in the nursing home.

In her whole life, Qi Yan saw her wear it out only once.

Now, another spring has come.

Li Hua is still brilliant.

But man, man has...

"Xiao Yan."

Behind him, Cheng Cheng hugged him suddenly, "Aren't you really sad? If you don't feel good, don't bear it, it's not good for your health."

Qi Yan: "You also know it's bad for your health?"

Who is more tolerant than you.

"Don't worry, brother, I'm not sad. Don't be sad either, the law of reincarnation, good and evil will be rewarded."

For a person like Meng Xinlan to be able to give birth to a kind-hearted child like Cheng Cheng, I am afraid that he will use up all the blessings in his life.

No matter what Qi Yan thinks, she also thinks that if she and Qi Shengbin have another child, it's impossible for her to win the battle, right?

That's too unreasonable.

"Hey, you said, they really had one child, inherited your mother's sharp appearance and vicious personality, and my father's good face, cowardice and violent tendencies, isn't it perfect?"

"It must be a personal treasure."

Cheng Sheng didn't say anything more.

Only the hands holding Qi Yan's waist tightly trembled slightly.

Qi Yan continued to ride forward.

Let's live.Ai Shengsheng, how can we not let the two of them live together?

Anyway, when the child was six or seven years old, when he started acting like a monster and collecting debts frantically, he and Cheng Sheng would have gone to college long ago.

Let the scumbag Xiaosan and Xiaoling hurt each other so badly.

The picture of the family of three must be wonderful.

……

The car was locked in the shed, Qi Yan: "Have you ever thought that if a healthy younger brother is born, it will be useless for them to want us."

"At that time, my father doesn't want me, and your mother doesn't want you either."

He looked at Cheng Cheng with a bit of wickedness.

Until the elder brother lowered his eyes, genuine sadness appeared in his eyes.

"You fool."

Qi Yan scratched him, and took his hand: "What's the big deal, we two depend on each other for life?"

"it is good."

Qi Yan: "Uh..."

Cheng Cheng: "We're together, we've made an appointment, don't change it."

Qi Yan's heart was astringent, but there was also a tinge of comfort.

That's actually pretty good, isn't it?

Before, they were Baa-Baa and Caboo.They are two pathetic fools who know that they have different positions and should not sympathize and appreciate each other, but still keep each other warm.

But now, it is really a community of interests, a grasshopper on a rope.

The two came to the door together and were about to take out the key to open the door.

It happened that Meng Xinlan was going out.

In March, the grass grows and the warbler flies.

The past few days have been particularly warm. Meng Xinlan was wearing a sweater with her arms open, her face was full of pride, and a pendant dangled around her neck.

Glittering gold, very dazzling.

Qi Yan: "..."

At that moment, my whole head really buzzed.

He grabbed the necklace decisively and tore it off Meng Xinlan's neck.

That's right, it's mom's one!

Poor mother has been looking for it.

Even if you are crazy and stupid, you will always be looking for the baby.

Qi Shengbin said for a while that he couldn't find the necklace, and for a while he planted the blame that his mother had been pawned, but in the end, he was secretly sent to please Meng Xinlan.

He really deserves to be his father, such a chicken thief.

The world map of the gold necklace can still be opened.

Meng Xinlan didn't seem to realize that it could be opened.Then, the most ridiculous scene appeared, Qi Yan opened the pendant at this moment, and there was still a photo of his mother hugging him and his sister inside.

In the ear, Meng Xinlan screamed.

"Ah—what are you doing! That's my gold necklace! Give it back!"

She rushed to snatch it, her nails almost caught Qi Yan's face.Being embraced by Cheng Cheng in time, Qi Yan took two steps back.

Cheng Cheng: "Mom, pay attention to your body, calm down, and speak up if you have something to say."

Meng Xinlan: "You tell him to return it to me! That's my necklace! It was given to me by your father, if you give it to me, it's mine! If he has any opinions, tell his father!"

Qi Yan also stopped arguing with her.

Walked over, opened the buckle, and the photo was directly on her face.

"Look clearly, whose necklace is this?"

"Look carefully for me! Who is the person in here?"

Inside the necklace, the woman turned her head slightly, her eyes were gentle and sweet, holding her two treasures in a very demure manner.

But in Meng Xinlan's eyes, it's not like that!

From her point of view, the woman in the photo is ghastly, her eyes are full of resentment, making people shudder and dare not look directly at her!She was so frightened that she hastily moved her eyes away, her whole body felt chills all over her spine, and her whole body felt uncomfortable.

"Oh, why don't you dare to read it?"

"Do you still know how to be a thief? It doesn't fit your character. Do you want me to give it back to you? It's fine. Here, you wear it. Since you think it's yours, you can wear it!"

Qi Yan said, and began to give the necklace to Meng Xinlan.

"What are you afraid of? Didn't my dad give it to you? Didn't you want it just now? Then you keep it?"

But Meng Xinlan seemed to have been scalded: "No... I don't want it! I don't want it! Xiaosheng, Xiaosheng, you protect your mother, you let him go! You let him go away!"

She really felt that the necklace was so dark that her face turned blue with fright.

Qi Yan: "It's strange, Auntie, your mental quality wasn't that bad before?"

"It can force my mother to jump off a building. You dare to live in her house swaggeringly. Why are you afraid of her necklace?"

"Oh, and this necklace, I actually bought three gold pieces when my parents got married."

"My dad really dares to give it, and you really dare to take it."

"Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

……

There was silence on the stairs.

Qi Yan put away the necklace close to his body, then pushed Meng Xinlan away and slammed the door into the room.

I wanted to lock the door, but after thinking about it, I didn't lock it.

Cheng Sheng will come in later.

Meng Xinlan is Meng Xinlan, Cheng Sheng is Cheng Sheng, they are different.

He made the distinction very clearly, and he would not anger his brother just because he hated Meng Xinlan.I also hope that my brother won't blame him for beating Meng Xinlan.

Let's understand each other.

Qi Yan turned on the light, and took out the necklace for a closer look.

After looking at it for a while, I suddenly found that the schoolbag was still in the car basket and hadn't been brought up.I wanted to go out to get it, but found that the mother and son were still at the door.

Cheng Cheng grabbed the handrail of the stairs, shaking a little.

His complexion was very bad, and he asked Meng Xinlan angrily, "Mom, what Xiao Yan said just now...his mother, jumped off the building?"

Meng Xinlan: "Don't listen to his nonsense! Come in, come in and talk slowly at home, what do you make others think if you let outsiders hear you like this! Come in quickly!"

Cheng Cheng shook his head stiffly: "I won't go in."

"It was you who told me that Xiaoyan's parents had divorced a long time ago. You said that his mother left the whole family and went out of town and never came back..."

Meng Xinlan: "Xiao Sheng! Mom didn't lie to you. Do you trust Mom or outsiders?"

"This matter is very complicated and cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. In short, your mother has never done anything wrong!"

"Even if I did it, it was for you!"
