Xiao Long held the phone tightly and looked at it twice, his eyes were a little sour...

At some point, the phone at home suddenly rang loudly, and he shuddered, struggling to jump over—"Hello?!"

"Taki Taki, your brother found it..." Mom's voice was a little hoarse, but she could hear some relief in it.

"Are you okay? Where are you?" It was already light outside, Xiao Taki blinked his dry eyes, and looked at the clock: 5:15 in the morning.

Mother Xiao: "Well, it's still in City E."

"When will you come back?" Xiao Long was worried about his parents' physical condition, the two of them hadn't slept all night, they must be very tired after driving and looking for someone.

Xiao's mother: "I'm going to the police station here at dawn. I won't say much on the phone. Don't worry, go back to school after a good night's sleep."

Xiao Long said anxiously: "It's okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Long let out a breath, a huge stone fell from his heart, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he fell into a dark dream after a while.

After waking up, Xiao Long stretched his sore arms and moved to his brother's room to continue sleeping. After an unknown amount of time, it was already dawn before he rubbed his eyes.After waiting for two or three hours, it was almost two o'clock before the sound of the key turning came from the door of the house, and he rushed over to open the door.

Father, mother, Xiao Meng, three of them, one is not less!Xiao Meng was carrying a schoolbag, his cheeks were swollen, Xiao's father's face was livid, after tossing for so long, his eyes were bloodshot, looking a little scary, Xiao's mother had disheveled hair, dark circles under her eyes, and was extremely haggard.

No one spoke, took off their shoes quietly, and entered the door one by one.

Xiao Long closed the door, and asked his mother in a low voice, "Have you rested on the road?"

Xiao's mother shook her head, Xiao Meng walked to her room first, but heard Xiao's father shout angrily: "Where are you going!"

Xiao Meng stopped and stood there awkwardly.

Xiao's father took off his coat and threw it on the sofa, and began to pace around the sofa. Xiao Long's heart beat wildly: This is the sign before Dad gets angry!

"The wings are stiff!" the man roared.

"Are you going to run away from home?!" The voice was raised once, and at the same time, the man's feet kicked on the coffee table, and there was a harsh friction between his feet and the floor.

Xiao Meng stood with his hands behind his back, in a posture that should be very embarrassing, but he showed a stubbornness, which made Xiao Long sweat silently for him: pig head, hurry up and give in!

"Forget it, let the child first..." Xiao's mother wanted to intercede with Xiao Meng, but unexpectedly, her husband yelled at her son as if being set on fire: "Speak up!!!"

Xiao Meng retorted: "What do you want me to say!"

The strong man casually grabbed the newspaper basket at hand and threw it towards Xiao Meng vigorously. The newspapers accumulated for several months were numerous and heavy. Xiao Meng instinctively raised his arms to block them, and the newspapers scattered on the ground.

Xiao Ting let out an exclamation, and rushed over shaking his feet, trying to grab his father who was so enraged that he lost his mind.Xiao's father was panting with anger, his burly body trembling slightly, and violently shook off Xiao Taki's hand.Xiao Long was thrown and almost fell, but he still begged for mercy and shouted: "Dad..."

Forget it, since I found it back, forget it!

Xiao Meng bit Lu Dongbin and said to Xiao Long, "Don't worry about it!"

Xiao's father jumped up and stepped forward to slap Xiao Meng, Xiao Long gasped, and heard his younger brother yelling at his father fearlessly: "Slap me again!"

Mother Xiao screamed sharply to stop her wayward young son: "Mengmeng! How did you talk!"

Xiao Meng: "How do I talk?! Do you listen to what I say!"

Father Xiao slapped him again, Xiao Meng took a step back, wiped his face, tears welled up, and said, "I hate you! Hate you!"

Xiao Long: "..."

With a dark face, Xiao's father pulled out his belt and began to greet Xiao Meng: "You bastard! I gave birth to you and raised you! When you grow up, you will hate your mother! Well... I will beat you to death today!!!"

Xiao Meng just shed tears and gritted his teeth as if he really had some deep hatred with his relatives.Xiao Long looked chilled, but couldn't help but feel distressed, what kind of conflict made his younger brother hate himself and this family so much?

He desperately rushed up to grab his father, hugged his waist, and dragged the man back forcefully: "Dad, stop beating, stop beating..."

Papa Xiao roared furiously, completely losing his mind.

Xiao Meng glanced at Xiao Long, and shouted: "I was beaten to death, all of you are happy! Every day, 'your elder brother is long, your elder brother is short', and when I die, you will only have an obedient and filial elder brother. He has good grades and is motivated. Feel good about everything! Just beat me to death! I'm just an unfilial son!"

After being fueled by this, Xiao's father was about to explode!

"Okay, okay..." He said a few words in a deep voice, and pulled Xiao Long from his body, as if a huge amount of strength had been poured into his whole body, he grabbed everything around him and began to greet Xiao Meng.

Water glasses, fruit baskets, remote control telephones, glass trays... some hit Xiao Meng, some didn't, but in the end they all fell on the floor, and the sound of "cracking" was shocking.

Xiao's mother went to pull Xiao's father while crying, Xiao Long was frightened and cried, he rushed between Xiao Meng and his father, blocked his brother, and begged for mercy incoherently: "Dad, stop beating, my brother is talking nonsense in anger, He's out of his mind now, Dad..."

Xiao Meng stepped forward to push Xiao Long away, and shouted, "Ha, I'm not insane? Just let me be beaten to death!"

This action completely ignited Xiao's father, the man roared, picked up the glass coffee table and threw it over, Xiao Long, who was pushed away by his younger brother, rushed back instinctively...

For a moment, Xiao Long felt that he was going to die.

He could hear Xiao Meng's cry, his mother's screams, and the heavy sound of the coffee table falling on the ground... as if the floor was going to be smashed through, and then he felt a sharp pain in his back...

Then it went dark, and I fainted.

Recalling this incident afterwards, Xiao Long always felt unbelievable: he was obviously so cowardly and scared, yet he would run over and suffer that blow, which was really contradictory.

Maybe it's because of family affection.My own family is so perfect and harmonious, why do these incomprehensible contradictions arise?

If only this could pass quickly...

Opening his eyes, Xiao Long's head was blank, the smell of disinfectant was in his nose, and a white pillow was in front of his eyes.hospital?

Xiao Long, who was lying on his stomach, struggled to get up, but only felt a piercing pain in his back. He groaned, and his hand was suddenly grabbed.

"Brother..." Xiao Meng's swollen face caught his eyes.

Xiao Long responded, twisted his neck and said, "What's wrong with me?" Disabled?

Xiao Meng was silent for a moment, and said, "Your spine is injured..."

Xiao Long: "..."

Xiao Meng asked with some guilt: "Does it hurt?"

You'll know when you've been smashed!What a mess!

Xiao Long gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay."

Holding his brother's hand, Xiao Meng said: "I'm sorry..."

Xiao Long: "..." Does it matter if I say it?Grass!You bastard, if you admit your mistake to Dad earlier, everything will be fine!Aw...fuck, it hurts to death!

Xiao Meng said in a muffled voice, "You don't have to block it."

Xiao Long was so angry that he wanted to scold him, but suddenly felt his hand was hot... and was horrified to find that it was Xiao Meng's tears that fell on it.

"Brother..." Xiao Meng called softly, with a crying sound, as if he was confessing.

Xiao Long sighed and said, "It's okay, I'm not disabled anymore!"

Xiao Meng cried and shook his head, Xiao Long was taken aback, wasn't he? "Could it be that I'm really going to be paralyzed?"

"……no."

"what is that?"

Xiao Meng lowered his eyes, and said: "The doctor said that it may affect the future, it will be for a lifetime... Some sports can't be done..." The boy's voice suddenly choked up, and he couldn't continue talking.

Xiao Long lay on his stomach depressed, thinking, is it so serious?

"The back is the pillar of a person..." Xiao Meng cried in a mess, with no image at all, "Brother, I..."

Before he fainted, this brat was still at home saying he hated them, yelling that he should be killed... Damn, the contrast is too great!

Xiao Long couldn't think of anything to comfort him, so he just kept talking: "Well, I didn't know who said it before, a pair of brothers and sisters, the younger sister loves to play more, and when playing with boys outside, she accidentally got raped. He lost his stomach and dared not tell his parents. He was so frightened that he wanted to commit suicide. Later, when his brother found out, he took the blame and took the blame. He told his parents that the child in his sister’s stomach was his. In the end, his father beat him up in a fit of anger. Broke a leg..."

Xiao Meng: "..."

"I used to think that brother was so stupid, how could he say it belonged to me! Helping is not such a way of helping!" Xiao Long laughed at himself, and continued, "Now I know, this is to be brothers Instinct, hey..."

Xiao Meng: "..."

Xiao Long: "So don't cry, men don't shed tears lightly, save... for your future sister-in-law."

Xiao Meng: "..."

It sounds nice, but it really hurts!Gritting his teeth to be a hero, Xiao Long diverted his attention and asked, "Where are your parents?"

Xiao Meng said softly: "Dad fell asleep, and Mom went to prescribe medicine."

Xiao Long lay on the bed, quietly listening to his younger brother confess everything to him, starting with the girl he likes——

One is 17 years old and the other is 14 years old.Girls are admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts in the college entrance examination, as long as they pass the entrance examination, they can learn to draw.Boys waste three full years going to high school.He also wants to learn painting, and also wants to go to the Academy of Fine Arts, but every time he brings up this idea, his mother will point out "brother" as an example, accusing him of being impatient and not doing his job properly...

For him, the three years of high school were a complete waste of time.After finishing reading, I have to go to a university that I don't like, and study a major that I don't like.If a person wants to live like this, what's the point?He couldn't afford to wait, couldn't afford to waste, he was afraid that the girl would spread her wings before him... the distance between him and her would become farther and farther.So he chose to give up the high school entrance examination and put all his money into saving to go to a professional high school that is not well-known or even just cheating money.

After tossing and turning to the destination, everything is not as I imagined: the school building was built in a remote and deserted town, which was originally an abandoned elementary school, with few teachers and students who looked like gangsters.The headmaster took the money and only told him where the dormitory was. The eight-person room was dimly lit, with musty-smelling upper and lower bunk beds, and a quilt spread over the wooden bed like an oilcloth...

There was no class schedule, and no one told him when and what classes to attend.Is this really a school?Maybe this is the road to the dream, this road is hard after all.He was already at the bottom of his boat, he didn't take the high school entrance examination the next day, and he didn't leave any escape path for himself...

After finally convincing himself to face the reality, the young man couldn't save his face and go back no matter what.

But at this moment, the parents found this place, Xiao Meng forgot whether they were panicked or moved.It's just that the little bit of happiness was completely wiped out by the oncoming slap of my father.

Self-esteem is always the most important thing in life for an unworldly 14-year-old boy.Being so bloody and shattered, at that moment he only felt hopeless.What about going back?Shame, embarrassment, if my brother finds out, he will still be looked down upon by his brother... Compared with the brother who his mother called "all excellent", I am really worthless!

The parents went to the school teacher to refund the tuition fee, but they were rejected, so they waited for dawn to go to the police station to ask the police to come forward to coordinate, and finally refunded [-], and rushed back to City C for days...

After Xiao Long heard this, he frowned and said, "I've always felt that I'm not as good as you. You know everything and are so good. Why do you envy me instead?"

Xiao Meng remained silent.

At this moment, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother came in.Xiao's mother was carrying the medicine and the medical records in her hand. Seeing her son woke up, she hurried up to her and asked, "How is it? Does it hurt?"

Xiao Long said, "It doesn't hurt." That's why...

Xiao's mother frowned distressedly, sat on the edge of the bed and touched her son's shoulder lightly, the corners of her eyes were wet again.

Xiao's father stuck at the end of the bed, as if he had aged ten years overnight.He didn't say anything. He was too angry and angry. He knew it was wrong to be impulsive, but he couldn't help it at that time. He made a completely innocent child pay the greatest price for this farce.

Xiao Long turned his head to see his father, afraid that his father would get angry again, so he said repeatedly: "Dad, don't be angry, Xiao Meng knows he was wrong."

Father Xiao's eyes drooped, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.Hey, two sons, one is here to collect debts, the other is here to pay off debts.

Xiao's mother rubbed her eyes, choked up and said, "Taki Taki, stop talking, lie down for a while, and Mom will call your teacher later...ask for leave."

After speaking, Mother Xiao handed another mobile phone to Xiao Long and said, "This is Wang Min's mobile phone. It has rang several times. Take a look."

Xiao Long couldn't wait to take it, 8 text messages!

6:21, "Xiao Xiao, I woke up, how is the house?"

8:34, "Are you up? Give me a reply."

12:21, "Dining with Gu Chun and the others at noon, eating without you, I have a bad appetite, and miss you."

14:02, "Brother misses you, see the text message back to me."

17:20, "Little, what happened at home? I'm worried about you."

……

Xiao Long was secretly startled, but fortunately, his mother didn't read the content of the text message... Otherwise, Wang Min would send so many "missing you" messages in succession, anyone who reads them would be disgusted to death!

Looking at the time, it was almost 7 o'clock in the evening, Xiao Long called Wang Min back, and was picked up after one ring.

He briefly talked about the situation on his side. His parents and younger brothers were present and there were some things he couldn’t say, but he honestly confessed that he was injured accidentally. come over.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Long felt sweet in his heart.Come on, come on, I miss him too...
