brother brother

Soon this group of noisy goblins also graduated.

On the day of the ceremony, the students were rejoicing. Miss Chen mopped her red eyes and was reluctant to part with them, but Mediterranean Sea yelled at Xu Zhiyuan: "The high school is next door, if you want to do something bad, I can catch you!"

Xu Zhiyuan dealt with him happily, busy handing tissues to the head teacher.

Their school is just one block away from junior high school and high school, and they have to go through the entrance of the junior high school to go home from the high school.

The high school is a boarding system. Of course, as long as the parents agree, students can also choose to go to school. However, both Xu Yongshan and Jiang Xiaomei agreed that living in school with a large army to experience life will help Xu Zhiyuan get acquainted with the warmth and coldness of the world.

Most of the male dormitories are four-person rooms, and there are also very expensive two-person rooms and single rooms, but their parents think it is unnecessary.

In terms of the average level on the market at that time, the accommodation conditions in their school were good.

There are two brand-new bunk beds against the wall. The writing desks are placed back to back in the middle of the room. There are some cabinets and bookcases around. They are all clean and tidy. The dormitory has its own independent bathroom, which is better than most schools that require public toilets. much better.

On the first day of entering the school, Xu Zhiyuan and Xu Wenyuan went there by themselves. The two quickly divided the upper and lower positions according to the previous family habits, put on new sheets and mosquito nets, and Xu Wenyuan also went to register and collect some daily necessities.

When they were almost busy, their new roommate came.

One is Song Bin, a dark and strong northern man with a loud voice but he seems to be very hospitable; the other is Yan Youchun, a short, white and clean man from the south, although he is not very enthusiastic, he is also quite gentle Be polite, take out two big bags as soon as you enter the door, and start distributing various fruit snacks, as if you are determined to build a good relationship with everyone.The only thing that didn't fit in with everyone was that a large group of people came to their house, including parents, mothers, grandparents, and two people who seemed to be relatives, and they crowded the room.Some helped him get a hot water bottle, some helped him make the bed, and some simply took a rag and started cleaning inside and out.

Xu Zhiyuan and Xu Wenyuan sat on the bed and stared dumbfounded.

If this happened, their family would be dragged out to parade in the streets. Although Xu Yongshan and Jiang Xiaomei doted on the child, they never neglected to cultivate his self-awareness.

Song Bin didn't care too much, he just gnawed on the snacks on the spot.

Yan Youchun was a little embarrassed, and kept urging his parents to go back, but his mother flatly refused.

"Oh, what will you do as a boy? If you don't hang the mosquito net, the mosquitoes will kill you at night! And oh, the towels on this shelf are clearly separated, don't get them wrong with others, and you have to bring them back for washing once a week. Otherwise, it will turn yellow and smell bad, the upper and lower parts of the washbasin should be separated, and the socks usually..."

"Mom! I got it! I can get you to go!" Yan Youchun shouted.

The woman was taken aback, and when she realized that she really didn't fit in, she quickly smoothed things over and asked the two elderly people to bring their relatives to wait downstairs first.

"Oh my classmates, I'm sorry, it's the first time our family Chunchun left home, he won't do it in the future, please help me..." She grabbed the oranges in the bag and put them into Xu Zhiyuan's hands stuffed.

Xu Zhiyuan withdrew his hand, and the oranges rolled up on the ground, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Xu Wenyuan seemed to be okay, and naturally picked up the oranges one by one and placed them on the bedside: "Don't worry, Auntie who will."

Probably because Xu Wenyuan's attitude was too sincere, he immediately won the favor of Yan Youchun's mother, and took Xu Wenyuan's hand to ask questions.

Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help rolling his eyes, and tugged at his brother's sleeve: "Brother, I'm hungry."

"Oh, you two are still brothers, you can't tell at all, my brother is so white and good-looking."

After the spring equinox, Yan You stared at Xu Wenyuan's face for a long time, and suddenly said: "Mom! He is the one who won last year's Mathematical Olympiad! I showed you the photo!"

Yan's mother was surprised, and she became happier after thinking about it. She repeatedly asked Yan Youchun to have a good relationship with her classmates. She said: "Both children are so outstanding, your parents are so lucky!"

Hearing others praise his brother, Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel complacent, wishing to praise Xu Wenyuan's advantages from top to bottom in front of others.

But now Xu Wenyuan focused all his attention on the matter of "brother is hungry", he took Xu Zhiyuan's hand and asked, "Let's go, Wang Yang just told us to go to the cafeteria."

When he walked to the door, he thought for a while, then turned around and asked Song Bin and Yan Youchun, "Together?"

Wang Yang also directly entered the high school of the school, but unfortunately he lived next door when he was divided into dormitories.He chattered all morning to discuss with the dormitory manager, but in the end he had no choice but to go to the next dormitory to block people at mealtime.

In his unpromising words: "Master's wife is the key point of the market test, my master has gone to do a big job, brother, I only have you!"

The food in the school cafeteria is good and the price is reasonable. On the first floor there are rice bowls, dumplings and noodles, and on the second floor there are boxes where you can order stir-fried vegetables.

The windows on the first floor, because they are cheap, have to grab the ones with the best dishes every time. They have to tie their shoelaces and prepare for the [-]-meter sprint before the get out of class bell rings. As soon as the teacher let go, Xu Zhiyuan dragged him Brother ran out, even if it was their turn, they often couldn't catch big fish and meat.

Xu Zhiyuan's mouth was too tricky, most of the dishes were not to his liking, and within two days he was so hungry that he lay on the table dying.

"This cauliflower is okay, and the sliced ​​meat is fine, and the scrambled eggs are also fine. Why don't you eat it?" Song Bin enthusiastically made a big bowl of rice and grilled it there. He drank it like fine nectar.

Xu Zhiyuan pushed his plate towards him: "The pork smells bad, the cauliflower is too rotten, I can't eat scrambled eggs with green onions, and this soup, I don't know how much water is added, you want to eat it You eat, I'll give you any more."

Xu Wenyuan was busy picking out the strips of meat on the plate and feeding him, Xu Zhiyuan leaned against him like a puddle of mud, his eyes fixed on his hand holding the chopsticks, and he licked his lips.

Wang Yang was no stranger to this strange scene, but it was the first time Yan Youchun and Song Bin saw it.

"The relationship between you... two brothers is... very good..."

Xu Zhiyuan flattened his mouth: "Can't the family get along well?"

Song Bin said while stuffing his rice: "That's not what I mean. I haven't seen any brothers who are so... sticky. They've caught up with the couple."

Xu Wenyuan looked up at him, and Wang Yang waved his chopsticks: "They have been like this since junior high school, and you will get used to it after a while."

"Anyway, my brother and I are not like this. When he was a child, he would take it out on me when he had nothing to do, and would push me out if he did something bad. So now we fight whenever we meet, and it is impossible for us to be clingy."

Xu Zhiyuan turned his head away, imagining Song Bin and the other Hei Zhuangzhuang being sticky and sticky, and got goosebumps all over his body.

"Okay, okay, eat quickly, we have to go to class in a while."

"Why are you in class? Isn't there still a lunch break?" Song Bin scratched his head.

"He meant to tell you to stop talking and eat quickly." Yan Youchun sighed and tapped his bowl.

"okay."

Not having enough food at noon, the direct result is that he can't sleep well at night. Xu Zhiyuan groaned and groaned in the middle of the night for several days and couldn't sleep because he was hungry. However, the use of electrical appliances is strictly prohibited in the dormitory, even if he wants to cook instant noodles and dumplings. It made Xu Zhiyuan miserable.

But one night two weeks later, a bowl of delicious stewed noodles suddenly appeared on his table magically, making Song Bin stick his head out of the mosquito net to drool.

"Wipe your drool, mine." Xu Zhiyuan was a little complacent, thinking that his brother got the takeaway from somewhere.

Xu Wenyuan wiped his hands and said, "I borrowed the canteen kitchen to make it. Tell me in advance what you want to eat in the future and I will make it for you."

Song Bin wailed: "It's too much! It's too much! Why should he be able to eat? I'm going to be hungry!"

Xu Zhiyuan stared wide-eyed and asked his brother: "Did the cafeteria promise to let you use the kitchen?"

"Well, I said that my brother is allergic to many dishes and can't eat them. They let me just clean up after cooking. I asked my aunt to copy the recipes. You can try it first and I'll adjust it later."

Xu Zhiyuan was so beautiful in his heart, he thought about it, no wonder he could hear his brother talking on the balcony when he was taking a shower a while ago, so he thought his brother was in love, and his heart was up and down for several days .

Xu Wenyuan stared at him and asked, "Is it delicious?"

Xu Zhiyuan smiled so much that his brows and eyes were crooked, every tear mole seemed to be dancing: "It's delicious, thank you brother."

Song Bin swallowed his saliva and leaned over: "Brother Xu, what, can I have some?"

Xu Zhiyuan turned his back: "No way!"

"Please! Just one bite."

"No!"

"Please, really..."

"If you say you can't, then you can't! Let go! Let go! Fatty Song, you..."

Xu Wenyuan shook his head, and followed them to make trouble. His eyes moved to his mobile phone, and there was a new message from Jiang Xiaomei. He clicked on it, and the corners of his mouth collapsed.

"Think about what we're talking about."

Three days ago, Jiang Xiaomei called Xu Wenyuan and told him that during the day, the third aunt called and said that Lao Zhao sneaked out during the day for some reason, but fortunately, he was found by acquaintances in time and sent back. Just to remind you, it is impossible for the third aunt's family to watch a fool 24 hours a day, and if something happens, it will be too late to regret it.

Jiang Xiaomei and Xu Yongshan felt that what the third aunt said made sense, that there was no one in the idiot's house, and it would not be a problem to leave him in the countryside all the time, so they discussed taking the idiot to the city for treatment.

At that time, Xu Wenyuan refused. His self-esteem was on the rise, and he felt that he had already owed the Xu family a great deal, and he didn't want to owe him any more.

When they returned home on the weekend, Xu Yongshan and Jiang Xiaomei unexpectedly scolded Xu Zhiyuan, blaming him for being ignorant and knowing how to make trouble for his brother. Only then did Xu Zhiyuan remember that every time he ate food, Xu Wenyuan paid for it himself.

He said in a daze, "Brother, I will pay for the vegetables in the future."

Xu Wenyuan smiled and patted his head: "No, brother can afford you."

"But you have no income. In addition to the scholarship you saved before, there is also a little pocket money every month. Where did you get the money?"

"Don't worry, you won't be able to eat a lot of money."

Xu Wenyuan originally planned to go to the kitchen to pour water, but found that the door was ajar, Jiang Xiaomei was cooking inside, and Xu Yongshan was helping out because the sun was out in the west.

Just as Xu Wenyuan was about to knock on the door, he heard the sound of two people chatting from the kitchen.

"Suppliers can't lose money. It's almost the end of the year, and workers have to go home to celebrate the New Year. And who will help you work after this delay?"

"I know the truth, but now that it's the end of the year, manpower and material resources are suddenly exhausted, where can I borrow temporarily?"

"If you want me to say, this Chen is really not a thing! You are so kind to him!"

Xu Wenyuan remembered that this "surnamed Chen" had been to their house before. At that time, he said that he was still Xu Yongshan's partner, and he came through hardships through wind and rain.

"He... well, water flows downhill, let's go uphill..."

There was a sound of throwing plates from the kitchen: "Look at you, you are such a good old man! You are so serious that you think you are not easy to mess with, and you even speak for those who cheat you when it is critical!"

After a while of silence, Xu Yongshan said: "That's the only way to do it first. We pay the money out of our own pockets first, and we can earn money again. If the reputation is bad, we won't be able to come back."

There was another silence in the kitchen, followed by two long sighs.

That night, Xu Wenyuan tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep. At three o'clock in the morning, he quietly got up. Unexpectedly, when the bed moved, his brother felt it.

Xu Zhiyuan shouted in a daze, "Brother..."

Xu Wenyuan quickly put his hand back on his head and rubbed it: "I'm going to the bathroom, you go to sleep."

Xu Zhiyuan hummed and smelled his brother's smell for a while, and finally fell asleep again.

Xu Wenyuan ran to the balcony and stood there for a long time.

This city is very big and nice. When he first arrived, he believed Xu Yongshan's words that young people are not afraid of tigers when they are born. After all, they have expectations for the future.

But after living for a long time, Xu Wenyuan felt that he was more and more like a night boat drifting on the sea, boundless and directionless, and there were hidden reefs everywhere.He remembered that when he first came here, his biggest worry was poverty and lack of money. Later, Xu's tolerance made him get used to it, but now, this feeling of not being able to land has returned.

Money is really a good thing, it's the same everywhere.

In the darkness, the lights in Xu Yongshan's and Jiang Xiaomei's rooms were also on for almost a night.
