Eros kisses Psyche

When Cheng Zhu limped after him, all he could see was a screaming and chaotic playground. The bouncy castle melted slowly like an ice cream cake, and several staff members were busy checking for air leaks profusely. , the children were screaming and jumping for fear of chaos, and the parents were arguing with the operators.He didn't care about others, he pulled and rummaged in the pink skin of the collapsed castle, and suddenly opened a corner——

Lele was holding Xiao Xu tightly and crying, wiping all the snot and tears on him.Xiao Xu looked up at him, and there was a flash of color in his eyes.

A big stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground, and he felt that the ground under his feet seemed to be shaking, and all the strength that had been supported by his will seemed to be pulled away from his spine. He wanted to reach out to pull them, but he sat down on the ground instead.

After mobilizing so many people and the police force to search for a long time, the police were almost about to issue an investigation notice, but it was a false alarm in the end.In short, both education and criticism—of course, they were all aimed at Cheng Zhu. When everyone saw a little meat dumpling crying in the arms of a handsome guy, no one would catch up to criticize the doll at this time, so they turned around. The firepower was so strong that it was aimed at Cheng Zhu, but it was a pity that he was alone, and he didn't even have a wife who could share the firepower. After all, he had to bear everything alone.Lele lowered her head, and probably knew that she had made a big mistake, so she dared not leave Xiao Xu at all, with her hands and feet wrapped around him like an octopus, no matter what Cheng Zhu said, it would be of no avail, and she was probably very afraid that her father would turn around and wait for someone to see him If you leave, you will "turn your face and deny people."Xu Budie couldn't get away at all, so the last three of them enjoyed the special treatment of the police car, and honked their horns all the way back home.

Probably because riding in a police car was too imposing for a child of this age, even Lele stopped crying and tried to widen her eyes that were sticky from crying before, looking at the twinkling eyes without blinking. Red and blue police lights illuminate the window glass.Cheng Zhu looked at his son's chubby face who refused to look him in the face, and wanted to say something, but facing such a small child, thousands of words could only be turned into a sigh, and he pressed his thumb so painfully. Jumping forehead.

When I got home, it seemed like a world away, and even the faint smell of wood chips and soil in the air seemed very friendly; even Lele couldn't resist the broken tiles and ruins that seemed to be invaded by monsters and then retaken by humans. in the living room, but still tightly grasping the corner of Xu Budie's clothes.

Cheng Zhu threw himself almost sideways into the sofa, and was so exhausted that the last battery was exhausted, and he couldn't move anymore.How did it become like this?Obviously, when I went out today, even during the whole day, I was quite happy; "Xiao Xu, I don't know what to say, thank you so much today. Anyway..." He fumbled in his pocket, found out his phone, subconsciously wanted to send a red envelope again, only then saw that his phone was broken and messed up, The screen is on, but it just jumps left and right between several applications when you touch it.

He coughed, "Well, it's so late today, you don't have a car alone, why don't you make do with me, my house has everything, anyway, the three of us three old men don't have any scruples."

Xu Budie looked at Lele speechlessly, who was also counted by Cheng Zhu as a "big man" and was not half as tall... You are not raising a baby, you are raising brothers at all, no wonder you made these operations .

To be honest, the invitation made his heart skip a beat.Xu Budie hasn't slept on a regular bed for a long time. He misses the cleanliness of his own bathroom, the privacy and comfort of living in his own house, and the slightly sunken feel of the soft bed when lying on it.These have been gone for a long time like a century.

but……

he can not.

There is a person who can't take care of himself at all... He is counted on for eating, drinking and lassing.

"I have to go back, otherwise..." he replied mechanically.Otherwise... how?In fact, no one would blame him.Even though the mother looks miserable, she doesn't actually feel it; just like she doesn't feel how painful, helpless and hopeless her son is, otherwise she would have woken up long ago, or she should have brought me with him go; she would never bear to leave her dearest son alone to suffer like this.

Cheng Zhu could hear the tone in his words, so he didn't try to force him to stay, and nodded: "Then you slow down, be careful on the road, I'm very tired... I'll fix the phone and send you money, I still have to ask you today For the favor of my colleagues, please send me a red envelope. You can give me the price per head. I will not thank you for this great kindness, and I will not say those hypocritical words. Take a good rest today... There are other things, I I'll talk to you later." He spread out on the sofa, motionless, and even found it difficult to raise his hand, "I won't see you off."

Xiao Xu nodded, and walked out with strides.Lele turned into a lap pendant, moaning and refusing to let go.Cheng Zhu said: "Lele, don't keep picking on brother, he is very tired, let him go home and sleep. Then we also wash up and go to bed."

But he still didn't get up.

When Xu Budie returned to the hospital, he was top-heavy; he asked his colleagues to deliver food from the hospital for Cheng Zhu's order today, and hired another nurse—of course, not a certified nurse. He couldn't afford that kind of job either; it was Xiao Mian, a migrant girl they knew from the omnipotent crowd, who was scammed by scumbags for money and sex before, and now she usually makes a living as a shampoo girl, and she doesn't have much business during the day, so she just fills in the vacancy.Anyway, it's not difficult to take care of Xu Budie's mother. She won't make demands, and she won't dislike you when you play with your phone or turn up the video too loudly.Just remember to look at the needle for hanging water, call the nurse to change it if it is gone; wear diapers, check for urine and urine every once in a while, and change them in time.Xu Budie has already figured out the laws of drinking water and excretion very clearly. It turns out that human beings are actually a kind of sophisticated machine, which goes in here and comes out there.He wrote down all the precautions in detail into a list and handed it to Xiao Mian.

Originally, Xiao Mian only waited for him until 8:[-] pm, and then it was the peak time for her to pick up customers; just now, she kept calling Xu Budie to remind her why she hadn't come yet, and she was going to delay her business. When Xu Budie came in, she was wearing heavy makeup Well, the cosmetics are spread out on the mother's locker, and a small mirror is leaning on the white sheet, leaning on the mother's calf, and she uses the mirror to apply the last touch of bright red on her lips.Raising her head, she happened to meet Xiao Xu who was entering the door; she smiled sweetly, her eyelashes were curled, and the sequins on them were shining brightly.

"You're here. The business is so good, but it almost missed my business." Xiao Mian half-truthfully complained to him, "Your mother is fine, she hasn't moved all day, her body temperature hasn't changed, she just keeps on time." Urinated and defecated, changed the paper pad and wiped the bottom."

"Thank you, I'll call you later."

"It's okay, don't worry, your mother is pretty good at taking care of her, she doesn't cry, make noise or embarrassment, it's a worry-free job. Next time, if there is something like this, call me again. As long as you call me in advance during the day, I should be fine." .”

Xu Budie nodded.She shook her hair, stuffed a pair of flat shoes into her bag, and walked away in high heels.

Xu Budie sat on Xiaomian's warm bench for a while; she forgot to take her mirror away, and she was still leaning on the white sheet.Xu Budie picked it up, his haggard face was reflected in the mirror, the dark circles under his eyes were hanging down like two bags, and his jaw was obviously sharp.He put the mirror by the bedside, where he still kept the list he gave to Xiao Mian, ticked off each one, and wrote down the specific time of dressing change, water change, urination and defecation, and some notes.Her handwriting is quite beautiful, graceful and correct, and there are no typos, and she can't see the wind and dust.

Who can believe it?Coming to this point is like throwing a stone into the sea, and the curve of fate is a mess.He thought that he should figure out how much money he needed to send out the red envelopes, and made a list to tell Cheng Zhu, don't end up accusing me of stealing money; at the same time, the people from the moving team came to report to him that the things had been escorted to the car, and there was no problem. There was no problem with the acceptance at the factory. Professor Cheng's two apprentices said they were satisfied, signed their names, and left the public account.

He finally let go of his heart, logically, I shouldn't have been the one to chase him back then, Xu Bu thought belatedly, all his apprentices are there, why am I the one who chased him?Fortunately, nothing went wrong. Professor Cheng and the two graduate students are not hard to talk to, otherwise they don't know how to end it.

But all the actions at that time were subconscious, without thinking; before they could think, people had already chased them out.No matter how unreliable Cheng Zhu's father is, he is also Lele's father, and his concern for Lele is genuine, yet he jumped directly from such a high place...

……what.

Xu Budie suddenly realized something was wrong.He straightened his back suddenly, and turned his head to look at his mother reflexively.The mother's swollen lips were still half-opened, and the burns on her face were relatively minor, not as severe as her body.She fell asleep peacefully, as if sleeping soundly.She passed out today.Calculated according to this time, it will not be excreted for at least eight hours...

He suddenly felt a pang of condemnation from his conscience, and quickly turned his mother over on the turning bed, and began to change the dressing.This job has been done very well, and because the patient is in a deep vegetative state, the most tragic and painful link has become very easy.But he is still very light and careful, his movements are accurate and fast, and the duration of time can be minimized to reduce pain.Even the nurses praised him for his dexterity and crisp movements, which is simply professional.

He smiled: Isn't it professional?

He muttered in a low voice, talking to his mother, but it sounded more like talking to himself:

"Mom, do you still remember the Professor Cheng I mentioned to you before? I went to his studio today, and... he is really that Cheng Zhu, the 'Feather One'. I have a big piece of my heart The male god's filter was shattered all over the place. I didn't expect it, the world is really small. In fact, it's not surprising when you think about it, he was originally in this city, otherwise Dad wouldn't know him."

"He's actually quite miserable. His wife ran away, and the house was in a mess. He was making model skeletons in the living room, and his clothes were piled up everywhere... He also has a child who is only five years old. He obviously has enough food and clothing. But it seems that because of the stimulation of parents' divorce, she is a little autistic..."

"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to recite. You won't believe it when you tell it... He actually lost all the children today, and even the police were dispatched. In the end, I found it for him. He doesn't know what his son likes, no Knowing where he would go, not knowing that he was being bullied by other students at school, not knowing that he wanted to see his mother."

"His son is called Lele. He is fat and puffy... He likes me very much. In fact, he doesn't know how to take care of children very well, so he has to rely on me. I sold such a big favor to Professor Cheng today, maybe I will be able to hug his thigh in the future; he is very famous in the industry, he must have many connections and riches, and any sculpture can be sold for tens of millions... I just need to coax him well and make him The son has been coaxed, and we will not worry about it in the future."

"So..." He paused, still like a child who made a mistake, tentatively looking at his mother's face in the dark curtain. "I have to please their father and son... It's not because of my dad. He doesn't remember my dad at all. Dad always likes to brag, 'Can you find someone who is related to someone, who is brother to him, just one sentence .' He always said that, it was all nonsense, and now that such a big incident happened, in the end no one was willing to help and could help, and people could only rely on themselves."

"...It's not because he is a 'feather'....I don't care about that. However, if I take his route, there may be a way to sell my father's collection in the future. As long as If I can make more money, I will do anything.”

Xu Budie finished speaking in one breath, and waited for a while.

"If you don't answer me, I will take it as your agreement."

He finished the wet compress and rewrapped the affected area.He said in a low voice, "I'll be back early tomorrow morning." After that, as if afraid of his mother opening her mouth to speak to him, she immediately stood up, grabbed her backpack, stuffed two changes of clothes indiscriminately, and rushed back without looking back. Out of the ward.

Cheng Zhu leaned on the sofa, unconsciously fell asleep for a while, and almost bounced again—waking up from the pain, startled Lele, who was about to steal the biscuits, and the biscuit bucket in his hand fell to the ground. On the ground, the lid burst open, and the bear biscuits inside were scattered all over the floor.

"..." Cheng Zhu was speechless. He didn't dare to criticize Lele now, but his ankle suddenly hurt badly, as if a tendon was pulling from his head to his ankle. All the pain accumulated before has been accumulated into a wave.I had to grit my teeth and say, "It's okay, I'm not looking for you, you eat yours..."

Lele looked at the biscuits, the "tools" she had left on the scene, and her father's expression. Instead, she didn't dare to move, and froze in place, as if she had been caught.Cheng Zhu used to feel that he felt guilty and owed to the child, so all the requirements were met, without principles, bottom line and common sense, he always felt that the child should be fatter.As a result, the child was raised too fat for him, and his teeth were about to decay. After developing this appearance, he was forced to follow the doctor's advice to control the snacks at home, so he put the snack jars in a high place.

Just now he was so tired that he fell asleep, completely forgetting that they didn't have time to eat dinner at all; but Lele couldn't do it without eating, and he didn't dare to wake Cheng Zhu to tell him, so he set up a bench and went to eat by himself. Stand up and touch the snack jar.

Cheng Zhu struggled to get up from the sofa, his feet hurt when they hit the ground. "Lele," he yelled, looking up at his son's small round face tremblingly, with red tears still hanging on it; he was not even up to the height of the table.The distance from the sofa to the kitchen is only a few dozen steps, can I rely on this child to move forward?Although he looks round and puffy, he is only a little older. Can he support the weight of an adult like me?

The doorbell rang suddenly.

A ding-dong pierced the stalemate and silent silence between father and son, as if a complete accident had been inserted in the day after day, and surprise appeared in the eyes of Cheng Zhu and Cheng Shuo almost at the same time.

Who is the one?Who will come to find us?

"Lele!" A familiar voice called from outside the door, "I'm Brother Fan!"

Lele jumped up all of a sudden: "It's Brother Fan!" Without Cheng Zhu's order, he rushed to the door, tiptoed and tried to twist the latch, and opened the door.

Cheng Zhu also stretched his body and stretched his neck to look at the entrance. The young man who went back and forth had an extra backpack on his back and a plastic bag full of it in his hand, "Fortunately, I went in before the supermarket closed. After sweeping around, I thought I can't always eat takeout, I can make do with it..." Xu Budie smiled shyly, with some night chill on his body, in Cheng Zhu's eyes, it seemed like a magic weapon descended from heaven.He took another look out of his bag, took out a small tube of ointment, stepped in front of Cheng Zhu in two or three steps, squatted down suddenly, and slammed open his trouser legs——

"really."

The right ankle was swollen like a steamed bun.

Xu Budie touched it lightly with his fingers, Cheng Zhu hissed, took a breath, grabbed his ankle and shrank back on the sofa, "Hey, what are you doing! Breaking into a private house in the middle of the night to moles a decent woman and man ?”

"If I don't come, are you going to ask Lele to help you fix your phone tomorrow, or help you to the hospital?" Xu Budie scolded him while taking out ointment, "I guess it's just a soft tissue contusion, but it's better Let's take a picture?" He was almost kneeling on the ground, holding Cheng Zhu's sweaty feet after running for a whole day, and spreading the ointment on the red and swollen area with his fingers, his fingertips were cool, and his fingertips were hard, and the ointment was very smooth. Carefully and evenly.Looking at it from this angle, the beautiful young man lowered his eyebrows, his eyelashes were particularly long, like two wings.Cheng Zhu stared dazedly for a moment, the other party's eyelashes flickered, and he looked up at him as if he had noticed his gaze; not knowing where he felt guilty, he coughed hastily and turned his gaze away.

"how do you know……?"

"You jumped off the roof of the car. When I was looking for Lele later, I was thinking how you could run so much slower than me. You didn't see me off just now, and you didn't even open the door for me. This is not a grateful person attitude."

"Young people are so observant," Cheng Zhu admired. "You might be able to be a detective. You can do it in my line of work. Our line of work also requires observation skills. You are better than my apprentices." .”

Xu Budie's hand paused slightly. "Actually, I mainly want to stay here." He changed the topic, "The big house in Mr. Cheng's area is my goal. I just want to experience it in advance."

Cheng Zhu also laughed.The cool smell of the ointment dissipated, and the pain and annoyance also dissipated blood stasis by circling with his fingers. "Come as soon as you come, you can stay as long as you want, and you can bring anything, so polite."

Xiao Xu finished prescribing the medicine for him, and carried the few vegetables he had bought into the kitchen. "Don't worry, Mr. Cheng, I'm asking for money. Here's the list, can you take a look?"

"Does cooking cost money?"

"The price is clearly marked." He poked his head out from the kitchen, shook the lettuce in his hand, and a piece of green stubble leaf poked on his head like a rabbit's ear, "So, burn or not?"

"Is there any... set meal?" Cheng Zhu said, shaking his foot, "Look, before my foot heals, I need an all-round, um, life assistant."
