Rebirth of Brotherly Love

In the depths of the silent cemetery, there are two cold tombstones standing side by side, the tomb where An Yuqiu and his wife were buried together, and the tomb of Anzhi.An Luo knew that these two graves were like two thorns deeply embedded in An Guangyao's heart, which could never be completely removed.Seeing the scene of the old man leaning on crutches and leaning over to put down a bouquet of white roses in front of the grave, An Luo's eyes couldn't help but feel a little sour.

There is a faint smile on the lips of the woman in the portrait, and it can be seen that she must have been a very temperamental beauty when she was young.An Luo looked down at her photo, although she should be a stranger to him, but standing in front of her grave at this moment, An Luo felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, probably because the atmosphere in the cemetery was too depressing sake.

The two stood silently in front of the tomb for a long time, An Guangyao was stuck in painful memories, and the fingers holding the crutches kept trembling.An Luo knew that the old man must be deeply blaming himself in front of his daughter's grave. He must have a lot to say to his children. An Luo couldn't bear to disturb him, so he stood quietly behind him.

The sky gradually darkened, a gust of wind blew, and dark clouds filled the sky, indicating that a heavy rain was coming.An Luo finally couldn't help but took a step forward, gently held An Guangyao's arm, and whispered, "It's getting late, Grandpa, we should go back."

An Guangyao came back from the memories, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, and when he turned around, he regained his composure, nodded to An Luo, and said, "Okay, let's go back."

Not far away, four bodyguards and the driver were waiting patiently. They turned around and walked to the car, got into the car together, and the car drove out of the cemetery quickly and steadily.

The summer rain came extremely violently, there was a burst of lightning and thunder in the sky, and the dark clouds fell heavily, dyeing the whole world with a gray tone.The heavy rain poured down, splashing flowers on the road.

A black car suddenly passed by An Luo's car, and An Luo couldn't help but wonder, who would come to the cemetery to sweep graves in such weather?Looking sideways, he only saw the back of the car disappearing at the intersection.Probably because the weather was fine when we came out, but we encountered heavy rain when we walked halfway, right?An Luo didn't think much about it, and turned around to continue chatting with grandpa.

The car finally stopped at the gate of the cemetery, and a tall man came down holding a big umbrella. He was wearing a neat black suit. The umbrella covered his face, and he couldn't see any expression clearly. The hand holding the handle of the umbrella looks steady and strong, with slender and beautiful fingers.

The leather shoes were stepped on in the rain, and the clean trousers were soaked by the rain, but he didn't care, walked slowly to Anzhi's grave, and stopped.

The bouquet of white roses in front of the grave was blown off by the wind with a few petals scattered on the ground, looking very bleak.

The man glanced at the bouquet of rose flowers stained by mud and water, and smiled slightly at the corner of his lips.

He bent down slightly, picked up the bunch of roses and threw them at his feet, and then, with great force, crushed them into pieces.

***

When the car drove home, the rain had stopped, and the air after the rain was mixed with the smell of green grass. An Luo opened the door and got out of the car, taking a deep breath of fresh air, but An Guangyao suddenly said, "Xiao Luo, you go into the house first." , Grandpa has an appointment with someone and wants to go out."

An Luo turned around with some doubts and asked, "Grandpa, what is so important?"

An Guangyao smiled slightly, and said: "I have made an appointment with several directors for dinner. I told you last time about the establishment of the two branch companies... Go in quickly, and be careful not to catch a cold."

An Luo nodded, "Okay."

When I walked into the house, unexpectedly, I saw An Ze and An Mo sitting in the living room watching TV. A football match was being broadcast live on the TV. When An Luo walked into the living room, he heard An Mo making a bet with An Ze. : "If your favorite Brazilian team wins the championship this time, can you eat all the grapes?"

There is a plate of purple grapes in the fruit plate on the table, which are big and round, with water droplets on them, and they look very fresh.

Anze glanced at the fruit plate and said lightly, "What if Brazil loses?"

An Mo smiled and said, "Then I'll eat this plate of grapes."

An Ze raised his eyebrows, "You love grapes the most, and I don't want to eat them. It's not fair to bet like this."

An Mo happened to see An Luo walk in, and said in surprise, "Brother is back?" Then he looked back at An Ze, "An Ze, why didn't you tell me that brother has been discharged from the hospital?"

"..." Anze didn't answer, and continued to watch TV with a cold face.

An Ze's indifferent reaction made An Luo a little embarrassed, so he had to pretend to be nonchalant and lower his head to change his shoes.

Seeing that Anze ignored him, An Mo had no choice but to turn around and ask An Luo: "Is brother in good health? When did you leave the hospital?"

An Luo nodded and said, "I was discharged from the hospital last week, Xiaomo, did you just get home?"

An Mo smiled slightly, and said, "I arrived this morning. After I got out of the airport, I went to the cemetery. I happened to meet An Ze who was visiting the grave, and then came back with An Ze."

An Luo was a little surprised, he didn't expect that An Ze also went to the cemetery, probably to see his second uncle.An Guangyao took himself to Anzhi's residence just to avoid them, apparently on purpose.Thinking of the emerald ring that An Guangyao secretly left for him, An Luo didn't know what to say, so he fell silent.

An Mo looked back at An Luo carefully, and said after a while: "Brother, are you able to walk now? Is the injury on your leg healed?"

"Well, it's much better." An Luo took a few steps forward, and when he reached the corner of the sofa, there was a sudden soreness in his knees. An Luo's legs softened, and he was about to kneel on the ground, but An Ze suddenly got up , reached out to support him.

Anze's deep voice sounded next to his ear: "Your legs are not healed yet, don't try to be brave enough to walk so far."

An Luo was startled, raised his head, and suddenly met An Ze's dark eyes.He was staring at himself intently, his eyes did not reveal any emotion, but An Luo looked directly into his deep eyes, but somehow his heartbeat stalled.

An Luo hurriedly looked away calmly, and slowly stood up with the support of his arms.

The two were still very close, and Anze didn't let go, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you go today?"

An Luo was silent for a moment before saying, "Go to the grave with Grandpa."

"Did you only go to the cemetery?"

"……Um."

"I went too, why didn't I meet you?"

"...Probably time has passed."

The height gap was five centimeters shorter than him, and the oppressive feeling caused by such a question-and-answer dialogue made An Luo feel a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, An Ze didn't ask any more questions, and responded with an "oh" lightly, and then let go of An Luo. Luo, turned around and returned to the sofa to sit down, and continued to stare at the TV watching the football game expressionlessly.

An Mo glanced at the two of them, smiled slightly, lowered his head, picked up a bunch of grapes, and ate them one by one.

The commentary on the sports channel shouted hoarsely: "The goal is scored! This is really a beautiful goal! Three to zero, three to zero lead! After four years, the Brazilian team won the championship again! We are here to congratulate the great Brazil team!"

"..." The atmosphere in the living room was a little weird, the three brothers didn't speak, only the cheers from the TV and the host's excited howling echoed in my ears.

At this moment, the sound of opening the door suddenly sounded. An Luo turned around and saw An Yudong and Zhou Bizhen walking into the house together. An Yudong was holding the key in one hand and the suitcase in the other, and Zhou Bizhen was holding the key. Carrying several shopping bags.

Facing An Yudong's surprised gaze, An Luo asked calmly, "Dad is back?"

An Yudong looked around the living room, smiled and said, "It's rare that all three of you brothers are here."

An Luo said, "Well, I was watching a football game just now."

An Yudong nodded, "Go ahead and watch, I'll put my luggage first."

While bending down to change shoes at the entrance, Zhou Bizhen turned her head and said, "An Ze, come and help me get it."

Anze stood up and took the bags from his mother, "Mom, what are these?"

Zhou Bizhen said: "The partner gave your father a few 7-inch tablet computers. It is said that the Internet speed is very fast. Your father already has one. You guys have a look. If you like it, you can play with it. I will go first. Help your father pack your luggage." Then he turned around and followed An Yudong to the bedroom to pack his luggage.

Anze took out several tablet computers and put them on the table. There are three colors: black, white and light blue. Among them, the white one looks the most beautiful. Knowing that his brother always loves white, Anze picked up that one. The white tablet was gently handed to An Luo.

"..." An Luo was a little surprised, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Take it." Seeing that he didn't respond, Anze put the box in his hand.

An Luo was silent for a while before saying, "Thank you."

An Ze didn't answer, and turned to An Mo, "What color do you want?"

An Mo smiled slightly and said, "Let's go blue." In fact, he prefers white, but since he was a child, An Ze would pick out gifts for his brother first. You can choose among the remaining ones.An Yan was ignorant when he was a child, and often quarreled with An Ze because of this, but An Ze always defended his brother righteously, but unfortunately his brother ignored them at all. Once the two quarreled, it was none of his business. Earplugs go upstairs to listen to music.

Thinking about the little Anze back then, I found it very funny. Even though he was the youngest, he always acted like a grown-up to protect his elder brother, and that habit of protecting his elder brother has been preserved to this day.

Seeing An Mo curling up his lips and smiling happily, An Ze couldn't help but wondered, "What are you laughing at?"

An Luo also looked at An Mo who had been smirking suspiciously.

An Mo met the eyes of the two, coughed awkwardly, and said, "No, it's nothing."

An Ze ignored him, and took out the tablet computer to test the Internet function. An Mo also took out the tablet to play games with great interest. Seeing that the two of them were playing on the new computer, An Luo also curiously opened the box and put the tablet on. The computer was taken out.

After more than 20 years, the design of today's tablet computers is completely different from that of the past. An Luo frowned a little displeased, but couldn't find the power button after searching for a long time.

Anze glanced at him, and found that he was holding a tablet and frowning slightly, obviously not knowing how to operate it.I remembered the scene when he went to the bathroom to take a shower for the first time when he was picked up to live in the military area. At that time, he couldn't find the switch to turn on the water, and he was accidentally drenched in water.

Did he really come from 27 years ago?

It seems that many things do not know how to use it...

An Ze looked at An Luo thoughtfully, seeing that he had searched for the button on the tablet for a week and still couldn't find it, the expression on his face was a little confused.Anze finally couldn't bear to sit beside him, and gently touched the center of the screen with his finger.

Sure enough, the screen lit up, and a combination lock and three rows of number keys were displayed in the center. Anze held down the combination lock with his index finger and moved it to the position of number 0, the screen was unlocked, and the "welcome" welcome interface popped up. Several menu, setting and other keys flashing blue light.

Anze explained in a low voice: "This is a full touch screen control. The power button is in the center of the screen. The initial password is 0. You can reset it yourself. The current tablet computer has a long standby time, and it can be used when it is out of power. Wireless inductive power supply charging is just fine, and the software can be downloaded directly in the mall.”

An Luo, who was educated as a stupid student, his ears turned red slightly because of embarrassment, took the computer from him, and said with a stiff expression: "Understood, thank you."

Anze was still not at ease, and continued to teach him patiently: "Now the whole city is covered by wireless network, and you can surf the Internet anytime, anywhere. Your previous username was anluo0523, and the password was 1234. If I remember correctly, the network fee is paid. By the end of the year, try it and you should be able to log in."

"Yeah." An Luo nodded, and searched through various menus with his fingers. After a while, he asked embarrassingly, "Where to log in?"

"..." Anze suddenly felt that An Luo, who was asking questions seriously, had a cute expression on his face.

My brother's face is always serious and indifferent, and when he occasionally shows a confused expression, it makes people very excited, and I want to kiss him desperately.

Even though he was a different person, he still had his brother's appearance, his voice, and his expression.Many times, Anze couldn't even tell which An Luo the person in front of him was.

But when he thought of the fact that his brother had passed away and saw the face in front of him, Anze felt extremely sad.

Now he still endures him to continue to stay in An Luo's house, maybe it's just because he still has a shadow of his brother, even though he knows it's just a shadow, An Ze is reluctant to let go...

An Luo was stunned by An Ze's straight gaze, and after a moment of silence, he repeated softly: "Where to land?"

Anze came back to his senses, took the tablet from his hand, and said, "Let me help you."

Open the wireless network option, enter the login name, password and network service provider, save the settings, and then pass it back to An Luo, "You can go online directly in the future, just open the browser and enter the URL."

"Oh, thank you." An Luo nodded, took back the tablet and tried to surf the Internet. The speed of the Internet was really fast, and the fonts and pictures on the news page displayed on the screen were also very clear. The 7-inch body can be held directly on the screen. In the hand, it is very convenient to carry.

An Luo liked the tablet very much, and took a quick look at the recent news while holding it in his hand.

The headline on the local news website reads "Preparations for the [-]nd Hundred Flowers Festival Start Today". An Luo clicked in and took a look. It turned out that the Xilin Municipal Government had been preparing for a flower exhibition festival since last year, named it "Hundred Flowers Festival". , the week-long Hundred Flowers Festival takes the meaning of "a hundred flowers in full bloom". At that time, a large number of rare flowers will be shipped from all over the country to participate in the exhibition. At the same time, there will be large-scale opening and closing ceremonies and other entertainment performances, striving to make this festival a local Unique scenery in the tourist season.

Just as An Luo wanted to take a closer look, he heard the sound of the door opening again. As the door opened, An Guangyao walked in on crutches. It happened that An Yudong and his wife also packed their luggage and came out of the bedroom. An Yudong hurried up Going forward, took the briefcase from An Guangyao, and asked, "Dad, are you going to a meeting?"

An Guangyao nodded and said, "Well, it happens that you and Ah Zhen are both here. I have something to tell you in the study."
