crossing the dangerous bridge

Kindergarten starts a week later than elementary school, and Jiang Yu can be said to live like a year during this week.

Every morning, he followed Lin Jianxi to send him to school, and when he saw his brother left, he came back aggrieved and sat blankly by the window, waiting for the afternoon to come.

Aunt Wang couldn't bear it at the beginning, but she got used to it later, and it can be regarded as going through a rough mental journey.

The child didn't listen to persuasion at all, even if he wanted to wait, he had to wait.

Without Lin Jianxi, the house was much quieter.

Only in the afternoon, when the family driver picks up Lin Jianxi from school, does Jiang Yu cheer up and follow the driver to pick him up.

Aunt Wang laughed and teased them, saying that as soon as Lin Lin went to school, he took his brother's soul away.

Jiang Yu blushed, hid behind Lin Jianxi, and secretly rubbed his brother's back.

After finally waiting for him to start school, Jiang Yu was so excited that he couldn't sleep at night.

Lin Jianxi was very puzzled, how could anyone look forward to going to school, even if it was a kindergarten, it was an evil school: "Brother, why are you so happy? You don't even sleep."

"I can go to school with my brother now." Jiang Yu said, leaning against him.

Lin Jianxi was stunned. Although he was very moved that his younger brother liked him so much, he still told Jiang Yu the truth cruelly: "But the kindergarten and the elementary school are not together."

"..." Jiang Yu never thought of this question, he was visibly stunned, staring at Lin Jianxi in a daze, at a loss.

"Then...then what should I do, I want to go to school with my brother." It took a while for Jiang Yu to react from this heavy fact, and asked if he wanted to cry.

Lin Jianxi patted Jiang Yu's shoulder meaningfully: "Don't worry, you can go to school with me when you grow up."

"But I want to go to school with you right now." Jiang Yu was so shocked that he was speechless.

"Otherwise, you can buy the school, and we can go to school together." Lin Jianxi thought for a while.

Jiang Yu thought about it seriously: "How much does it cost to buy a school?"

"Ten million... Well, it should be tens of millions."

"..."

Jiang Yu's assets are only ten yuan.

He put on the quilt dejectedly: "Sleep, good night brother."

Before falling asleep, he was still thinking in a daze that he should grow up quickly and get rich quickly...

However, the school is not together, but the driver can pick up and drop off together. Jiang Yu can take the car with his brother every day instead of watching his brother go at home. He is still very happy.

Kindergarten ends early, and the driver always picks up Jiang Yu first, and then takes Jiang Yu to pick up Lin Jianxi.

The news that Lin Jianxi had a younger brother had already spread in the class. Everyone... especially the girls wanted to see what his supposedly super cute younger brother looked like.

It's not that they gossip, it's mainly because Xiong Cui and Xiong Can are bragging every day in the classroom, making people curious.

"It's not because Lin Jianxi doesn't come out to play with you because you are too fierce, but his brother is very obedient."

"Where are we being fierce?" Shen Yi was very unconvinced: "Besides, no matter how cute my brother is, he's still a brother, and he can't be a girlfriend."

Xiong Cui cried out in surprise: "Shen Yiyi, so you want to be Lin Jianxi's girlfriend!"

"You're looking for death," Shen Yi grabbed his neck and dangled back and forth, probably because she was being talked about, she seemed a little guilty, and her voice became softer and softer: "That's what I said, that's not it!... Besides, Lin Jianxi is so good-looking, all the girls in our class like him, and I'm not the only one."

Xiong Cui was shocked: "But Lin Jianxi can't have so many girlfriends."

Playing with Lin Jianxi every day, he actually couldn't tell whether Lin Jianxi was really as good-looking as Shen Yi said. Xiong Cui curiously looked for Lin Jianxi in the classroom, and found that he was teaching others to fold frogs.

He stared and observed carefully, and found that there seemed to be a little difference, they were all seven or eight-year-old children, and Lin Jianxi looked much more pleasing to the eye than other little boys.

Specifically speaking, this kind of pleasing to the eye is probably because his skin is much whiter than others, and his clothes are clean and tidy, unlike other children, who are wrinkled and covered in mud from crazy play.

Shen Yi felt that he couldn't communicate with the stupid boy at all: "If you like it, you don't have to be his girlfriend! What do you know!"

"Okay," Xiong Cui turned around and raised his hand in surrender: "I don't understand, but you guys are amazing."

During lunch, Xiong Cui mentioned the matter again: "Lin Lin, why don't you play with them?"

"They always want to play rubber band with me," Lin Jianxi said. "They also want me to play the prince and they play the princess. I have to listen to whatever they say. I don't want to play with them."

Xiong Cui: "..."

Xiong Can: "..."

Can't tell, girls are so sinister!

It was time to leave school again, and a group of people followed Lin Jianxi, wanting to see who his younger brother was.

As soon as Jiang Yu saw him, he couldn't care about others. He didn't even notice that there were so many people around him, so he ran over and hugged him, "Brother."

He didn't raise his head until he heard other people's laughter, and saw a group of little boys and girls looking at him. He couldn't help but squeeze Lin Jianxi's hand tightly, and shouted again: "Brother."

Lin Jianxi patted his head and said to the others: "Okay, you have read it all, can you go now?"

Shen Yi asked: "Lin Jianxi, how old is your brother?"

"Five years old."

"I can't tell, he looks so small." Shen Yi also wanted to pinch Jiang Yu's face, but before she touched Jiang Yu's face, Jiang Yu hid aside and refused to let her touch it at all.

Shen Yi felt a little embarrassed, raised his hand, grabbed Lin Jianxi's face, and said deliberately: "Lin Jianxi, your face is so soft. Let me kiss you, mua."

"Hey," Lin Jianxi stopped her: "If you don't learn well at a young age, who taught you to be such a rascal."

Shen Yi smiled and ran away: "Go home, Lin Jianxi bows."

"Bye-Bye."

"God back."

Lin Jianxi also wanted to leave, but Jiang Yu kept standing there, staring at the direction Shen Yi left, wondering what he was thinking.

He poked Jiang Yu: "Why are you in a daze?"

Jiang Yu turned to look at him, shaking his head blankly: "It's nothing."

He had a little bit of doubt, and at night, he didn't understand why the girl pinched his brother's face and even kissed him.

Although his brother avoided it, he was still unhappy.

He has an inexplicable sense of danger and sadness that the treasure he likes will be snatched away, and sleeps next to his brother closely at night, for fear that he will be like his parents, who will disappear as soon as he says he can't see him.

"elder brother……"

Lin Jianxi spent a whole day at school and slept soundly, so she didn't hear his subtle call.

Jiang Yu suddenly sat up, kissed him carefully on the cheek, and lay down contentedly.

My brother didn't hide from me...even though it was a secret kiss.

In the blink of an eye, autumn went to winter, and when the new year was approaching, a heavy snow fell one after another, covering the whole city.

Snow fell on the orange tree in the yard. If you grab the branches with your hands and let go, the orange tree will shake off the snow as if it were alive.

In winter, Lin Jianxi and the two bear children from the neighbor's family seem to be about the same size. The three children are all wrapped up round and round, making snowmen in the yard. At a glance, they look like three huge glutinous rice balls.

Jiang Yu sat alone by the window, and the adults didn't let him go out, for fear that he would catch a cold, so he could only stare at them playing games.

My brother is having so much fun...I really want to play with him.

Although it was New Year's Day, he was one year older, but his brother was also one year older... Year after year, when will he be able to catch up with his brother?

After returning from playing in the snow, Lin Jianxi rubbed Jiang Yu cruelly with his cold hands, then went back to the bathroom and soaked his hands in hot water.

When playing in the snow, I don't feel the cold or heat. After all, the playful heart is warm, and it's only when I come back that I realize how cold my hands are. He soaked for a long time, and Jiang Yu stood beside him, whispering to him.

This year's New Year's Eve dinner was as sumptuous as ever. After the meal, Lin Zhiming mysteriously moved out a bunch of fireworks from the warehouse.

The children's cheers and Zhao Yunqi's sigh sounded together.

"Dad, I want to set off fireworks!"

"Why did you secretly buy fireworks again? How old are you?"

Lin Zhiming waved his hands nonchalantly: "It's New Years, why not let off fireworks?"

Thanks to the fact that they don't live in the downtown area, bright fireworks have been set off one after another around. Lin Zhiming didn't buy fireworks that could jump up to the sky, but colorful fireworks. With a little fuze, the fireworks bloom, like A burning bridge.

"Wow." Lin Jianxi and Jiang Yu stuck together in front of the window, sincerely admiring.

Naturally, New Year’s greetings are due. After spending the first day at home, Lin Zhiming took his family to his hometown. Lin Jianxi took Jiang Yu to pay respects to his grandparents, grandparents, seven uncles and eight aunts. The two people's coffers have grown substantially, and Jiang Yu is no longer a pauper with only ten dollars a day.

He carefully collected the money and saved it to buy the school in the future.

My hometown is located on a plain, and there are no mountains at first glance, only continuous rice fields. In winter, the wheat is covered with thin snow, with only a little green stalk exposed.

There is a clear stream near the rice fields, the water of which can only reach the ankles of adults.

Lin Jianxi stood by the stream and watched for a long time: "Brother, do you think there are any fish in the water?"

"I didn't see it."

"It can't be winter, the fish are all hibernating." Lin Jianxi didn't see the fish, so he didn't believe in evil, so he picked up a branch and stirred it in the stream.

The water was muddy, but still didn't see a single fish coming out. Seeing that Xi was bored, Lin threw a branch, compared the width of the stream, and suddenly thought: "Brother, do you think I can jump across?"

"Brother doesn't dance." Jiang Yu was afraid that he really wanted to dance, so he hurriedly grabbed his clothes.

"Hey, don't be afraid." Lin Jianxi belonged to those who seem to have no boundaries. Right now, he obviously thought that he could conquer this thin stream, so he patted Jiang Yu's hand comfortingly, signaling him not to worry.

The creek didn't look wide, so Lin Jianxi took a few steps back and started running——

Unexpectedly, visual inspection and practice are two different things. The seemingly narrow stream gave him a big blow. With a "crash", he stepped on the smooth stone and unfortunately fell into the water.

Lin Jianxi: "..."

Oops, careless.

Jiang Yu was in a hurry: "Brother!"

He seemed to have forgotten that he was also a child who had just turned six years old, and hurriedly wanted to get into the water to help his brother up, but Lin Jianxi shouted decisively: "Don't come down!"

He got up, the water was shallow, the thick down jacket was not soaked in water, but the pants were half wet.

Lin Jianxi thought badly, I look like I wet the bed.

But the worst is yet to come.

He went ashore and ran home with Jiang Yu. He thought that his healthy body could withstand the death this time, but it turned out that he still thought too much. He developed a fever that night. Mom doesn't recognize it.

Seeing his face flushed with fever, and pitifully huddled under the blanket, Lin Zhiming and Zhao Yunqi couldn't care less about being angry. After hanging in the township hospital for a day, Lin Zhiming stopped waiting and drove back to the city overnight. .

The way back was a bit congested, and the adults couldn't help being impatient. Lin Zhiming put his hand on the cigarette case several times and took it back. Zhao Yunqi hugged her son helplessly, as if she had returned to the time when Lin Jianxi was just born.

At that time, he was small, with his eyes closed, quiet and well-behaved.

Now he is not big, lively and active, and he is sick with his skin.

Zhao Yunqi touched his forehead and coaxed softly: "Baby is not uncomfortable, mom will take you to the hospital."

Lin Jianxi was confused, heard her mother's voice in a trance, and instinctively shrank into her mother's arms.

Zhao Yunqi suddenly felt that the car seemed too quiet. She looked down and found Jiang Yu crying.

The little child gritted his teeth and cried loudly and silently. There were so many tears that the clothes in front of him were wet.

She sighed silently, her warm palm fell on Jiang Yu's back, and she didn't take it back for a long time.

It took more than half a month for Lin Jianxi to recover from the fever. During this time, the hearts of the whole family fluctuated with him.

The child who had just recovered from illness had no energy, and Zhao Yunqi also strictly forbade him to go out to play again. Lin Jianxi could only stay at home boredly and tease his younger brother.

It's just that he didn't expect that when he was sick, his younger brother became unlovable.

"Brother," Lin Jianxi poked the only pouty face that could comfort his fragile heart: "Why don't you smile anymore, come on, smile."

Jiang Yu stared at him without blinking, then hugged him suddenly, "Brother."

"Ok?"

"Can you..." Jiang Yu said sullenly, "Can you not get sick...I'm so worried about you."

For the past ten days, he could only watch Lin Jianxi fall ill and be hospitalized, and he could do nothing but cry.

From the time his parents left until now, he has become more and more anxious to grow up, wants to grow up faster, wants to grow up faster than his brother, he doesn't want to cry uselessly anymore, he also wants to protect elder brother.

He thought countless times that it would be great if he could hold his brother and prevent him from jumping off.

The New Year's gift for the six-year-old is not a red envelope, not the joy of the New Year's arrival, but an unspeakable sorrow that has arrived ahead of schedule.
