Strong alliance

Beilu Street has always been a dilapidated place. There are a lot of factories and factories, and finally they all closed down. Most of the poor people here are only themselves.

In order to make a living, young people can only go out to find a way out, leaving the elderly and children at home to depend on each other. Slowly, this dilapidated place has the name of staying on the street again.

At that time, although Chen Fanglan insisted on going home to see An Yu every day, she still didn't have enough time to accompany her, only a short while before going to bed.

Sometimes if you are unlucky and catch up with traffic jams, you will naturally arrive home late.And children go to bed early, in this case, Chen Fanglan hurried into the house, only to see An Yu's sleeping face sweetly.

Chen Fanglan was reluctant to wake An Yu up every time, so she had to kiss him on the cheek, and had to go to work early the next day. The chances for mother and son to communicate face to face were pitifully rare.

As for An Yu's father, his nature was hard to change, and he didn't want to go home after working outside, saying that he wanted to make a name for himself outside and earn a lot of money.

Therefore, An Yu was basically taken by her grandmother when she was a child, but there was inevitably an abyss-like gap between the old man and the child, and she could only try her best to take care of An Yu in terms of life.

But despite this, An Yu's temperament is getting more and more weird, getting bored and colder every day, it seems that everyone is on guard, except for Zhang Feiyang from the next door, he doesn't play with other children.

Until one day, the kindergarten teacher called the family and said that An Yu's child didn't eat well at noon, and a bowl of rice was put on the head of another child, and the parents there wanted to ask for an explanation.

Mrs. An was shocked at the time, why did she do it!

She has always known that although An Yu is cold on the surface, he is very well-behaved. He is different from other children since he was a child. He does not want this or that. ,Never."

At that time, Mrs. An rushed to the kindergarten with this shock, and the child was also brought by her grandmother, and it was inevitable that they all lived in the same area.

The other party is the famous "broken mouth" on this street, chewing his tongue here and grinding his teeth there.

When she got to the door, she saw Suizuizi being aggressive, pointing at An Yu and the teacher and yelling: "What's wrong with this kid! If he withholds a bowl of soup today, my eldest grandson's face will be scalded? Apologize, we must Apologize! After apologizing, I will pay for my grandson's mental damage!"

The teacher was also shocked, so he could only comfort him, and then asked An Yu why he was detaining him.

But An Yu was cold and stubborn, his small face was blank and he didn't utter a word. His posture seemed like if he was given another bowl of rice, he could still buckle it up.

The broken mouth became more and more unreasonable, and said in a bad mood: "Sure enough, the children born to women who destroy other people's feelings are not fun! A nest of snakes and rats, it stinks!"

At that moment, Mrs. An understood something. A child is pure-minded and has no ability to judge. When he hears what an adult says, he subconsciously thinks it is right.

The kid must have heard something from grandma, and then chanted it in front of An Yu, that's why he was deducted rice - and he deserved it.

Mrs. An looks gentle, but she is not easy to provoke. In the early years, she still had a little strength, and An Yu was not big.

She rushed in angrily, hugged the child in her arms to protect her tightly, and scolded back unceremoniously: "Just for what you said just now, I can deduct ten bowls of rice from you!"

Broken Zuizi was stunned for a moment, and was about to hit someone when he greeted him, but was stopped by the teacher, and could only curse desperately: "Is it reasonable for your child to detain someone? You deserve to be a widow in your 30s if you educate your children like this!"

Mrs. An heard these words a lot, she didn't care anymore, and walked home with An Yu in her arms.The child lay on her shoulders without speaking for a long time, but when she stepped into the courtyard gate, she felt her shoulders were wet.

Mrs. An put the child on the ground. His eyes were red and swollen, and he kept crying.

Mrs. An knelt down and wiped his tears for him: "Grandma knows Xiao Yu is a good boy, can you tell grandma why she did it?"

Confusion and pain appeared on An Yu's face, which was slowly replaced by indifference, and he explained bluntly: "He said that my mother is not good, so I detained him."

The noon sun is the hottest, and the light is the most intense. It will have a warming effect on anyone, but An Yu obviously can't.

Standing under the scorching sun, An Yu's already cold and stubborn face hardened, but he remembered what he had said, so he couldn't help but step forward, put his arms around Old Madam An's neck, and said, "Grandma, I will never It's messing you up."

Mrs. An flipped through the photos over and over again, unknowingly picked out An Yu's photos, and said superstitiously: "Xiaoyu, this child voted for the wrong family. He is named An, but he has never been in peace. .”

The lights in the room are brighter at night, but after casting them in the room, there are shadows all over the ground, on the table, on the face of the old man... and on Xiao Xi's heart.

This small brick house is like a cage of memories, sealing all of An Yu's past. In a certain period of time, there was a little person struggling like a fish out of water.

Xiao Xi was very depressed.

He actually felt the pain of suffocation because of another person's childhood experience.

Childhood should have been sunny, but it was freezing cold in An Yu's place, and his whole body was shivering in the frost and snow.

"My child," Mrs. An laid out An Yu's photos one by one, put them away according to age, pointed to the sky, turned to look at Xiao Xi, and asked with an incredible innocence: "What do you think?" , Is our Xiaoyu a fairy in the sky, he needs to come down to experience a calamity."

Xiao Xizheng was very sad, and almost laughed out loud when he heard the old man's words.

But the old man is a master at controlling emotions, so he didn't give him a chance to laugh at all, so he caught An Yu's seven-year-old photo and started talking again.

She put her legs on the sofa, and said with a stooped figure: "Maybe Xiaoyu really came from a calamity. He always heard some messy things in kindergarten, and he was still not calm when he was in elementary school."

"Not long after Xiaoyu entered the first grade, the family finally got better, but suddenly a group of people came and wanted to take Xiaoyu away." Granny An frowned: "The battle at that time was very scary. They searched out all the valuable things, and Xiao Yu didn't even dare to enter the door when he got home from school, so he ran into the back mountain and hid."

"The group of people just waited until Xiao Chen's girl came back and didn't leave. Instead, they worked harder. How much money does your man owe us? Use the son of the family to pay off the debt."

"But who doesn't know that Xiao Yu is her lifeblood. When she heard that her son was used to pay off the debt, she became anxious and insisted on arguing with several big men. The reason for this quarrel is also very different."

Granny An grabbed a photo of An Yu's father, and nodded heavily: "This bastard is earning money, and then he started thinking about crooked ways, gambling and buying lottery tickets, and owed a hundred thousand outside. At that time It’s worth a hundred thousand or so, just like the current one million.”

"That girl Xiao Chen was dumbfounded at the time, everyone was dumbfounded, but in order to let people go, Xiao Chen took out all his savings of more than 3 yuan, and begged for a long time before letting those people leave."

"After that, Xiao Chen went into the mountains to look for someone again, but after searching for a long time, there was no one. She was very anxious." Mrs. An picked up the only photo of An Yu and An Cheng: "In the end, it was the kid from Xiao Cheng who came back after hearing the letter and I went into the mountain to search again, and carried back the scared Xiao Yu."

Mrs. An paused, and gestured on her arm: "When Xiaocheng came out with Xiaoyu on his back, his arm was bloodied. No one slept well that night, and no one slept for a long time afterwards. Fortunately, the bastard thing has been unable to contact."

"After that, debt collectors would come to the door from time to time. Xiao Chen was afraid of affecting Xiao Yu, so he tried to send him to the city to go to elementary school, but there was no place to live in the city. Xiao Chen bit the bullet and contacted Zhang Feiyang. Mom, can I borrow it?"

"At that time, Zhang's family had already struggled out of here and bought a house in the city. Zhang Feiyang's mother felt sorry for Xiaoyu, so she agreed. This stay will last for a few days. Xiao Chen will take Xiao Yu with him during the holidays. Yu came back to see me."

"Coincidentally, at the end of a certain year, the bastard came back once. As soon as he came back, he beat Xiaoyu and Chen, and asked why Xiaoyu ran away, which made him almost killed by debt collectors."

"After he was crazy, the bastard left again. There was no news for several years, and he didn't show up until Xiao Chen paid off his debts. He was completely useless. He was idle every day. When he saw Xiao Yu coming back, he would beat him. Sometimes he would treat me too. ..."

Mrs. An couldn't go on anymore, she slapped herself on the chest: "Tell me, why did I raise such a bastard, what a crime it is."

Xiao Xi held the old man's hand, called "Grandma" and stopped talking. He thought of An Yu's drunken words, and An Cheng's exposed arm... The family was ruined.

He tried to imagine how An Yu survived, but he didn't have the courage to think about it.

Just thinking about it hurts, every part of my body starts to hurt, even breathing hurts...

Mrs. An took a few breaths: "After so many years, I think the right thing for that girl Xiao Chen to do is to take Xiao Yu out of here."

The old man calmed down, pointed to some supplements for middle-aged and elderly people in the corner, and said with emotion: "Although the contact was broken after that, I still receive these things every year. I know it was sent by Xiao Chen. What a wonderful one." girl."

Xiao Xi nodded, recalling the scene when Chen Fanglan treated him, she would cook for him with her own hands, and carefully prepare clothes for four seasons for him... He is indeed a very good person...

"I almost forgot, the family, you must know." The eyes of the old man seemed to be a little cloudy again, and she leaned her head on the sofa: "Both mother and son are well, and they have to do well in the future. .”

It was probably because the old man hadn't talked to anyone for too long, and he lived in this small room by himself.

She repeated the last few words over and over in front of the photo, and Xiao Xi frequently responded, "It's definitely good."

There are two people, one old and one young, one speaks vigorously and the other listens engrossed.It wasn't until An Yu came in with the prepared meal, and said to the two ancestors on the sofa who were fiddling with photos, "Enough, let's eat." The two stopped.

Xiao Xi sat on the sofa in a daze, while accepting these childhoods that did not belong to him, while looking at the back of An Yu accompanying Granny An to sort out the photos.

The young man's back is straight, a bit like a lone pine standing on the top of the mountains. The branches are covered with heavy frost and snow, and become curved. If the scorching sun hits it, it will definitely shine cold.

This is An Yu... He seems to be a human fireworks hidden in a corner, or a heavenly man who accidentally broke his wings.

Xiao Xi suddenly remembered what the old man said just now: An Yu has been different from other children since he was a child. He doesn't want this or that. If he really likes it, he should look at it more, and then emphasize in a low voice: "I don't like it, so I don't want it."

Where is the real desire and desire, but no one can satisfy his small desire, maybe not even a candy.

When Xiao Xi exploded, he felt that someone was embroidering his heart with a needle, which made the word An Yu more and more clear. When he saw it, it hurt...

Unable to restrain himself, he stretched out his hand to pull the corner of An Yu's clothes, sniffed and called his name: "An Yu."

An Yu froze his hands while arranging the photos, turned his head to look at the person sitting on the sofa, and subconsciously squeezed out a word: "Say."

Xiao Xi shrank herself into the sofa like the old family, but the young man was tall and long-legged, and he didn't shrink at all, as if he had his head in his sleeve, a little silly and cute.

He slammed into An Yu's line of sight fiercely, without dodging at all, and said with red eyes: "I will give you whatever you want from now on."

An Yu felt that he was touched by something, he couldn't hear the whirring in his ears, and his heartbeat became chaotic, Kabbah said: "You said... what?"

"I said," Xiao Xi repeated what he said just now: "I will give you whatever you want in the future."

Including me, but I don't know if you want...me.

An Yu was stunned, the hearty laughter of the old family brought him back to his senses, his lively face clicked and then became paralyzed, but the fundus of his eyes was different from the past, with light and the reflection of Xiao Xi.

Xiao Xi can see...

The old man laughed enough, and said with squinted eyes: "You two have such a good relationship, you must always be this good."

These words sounded like a blessing to the young couple.

Xiao Xi felt that his little thoughts had missed something, so he quickly turned his eyes away and replaced it with a sneak peek.

Instead, he heard An Yu casually respond, "Yes."

It seems that it is not random.

In the corner of the eye, An Yu moved slowly under the light, and helped the old man put the arranged photos into the cabinet, then closed the door, and stood with his hands on the TV cabinet for a while.

He heard An Yu take a deep breath, bent his back and straightened instantly...

Xiao Xi knew—that pine tree branched up!

Song is working hard to bury the past in the deepest part of memory, and let everything return to ashes.

Perhaps, we should have known a long time ago that as long as life moves forward, it will definitely get better...

The author has something to say:

An Yu: I can't do it...
