Possession through the book

It was very late at night, candlelight leaked from the low windows, it was a little dark but it still exuded warmth. In the room, Xiao Xu weaved the bamboo strips that had been processed nimbly with his fingers. Qin Sheng sat on the bench beside him holding his little face. Look, ever since he touched the bamboo strip and got his hand scratched, Xiao Xu never let him touch it again.

Xiao Xu was skillfully weaving the bamboo strips in his hands, and from time to time he looked at the obedient child who was sitting on the small bench accompanying him, and felt extra warm in his heart, but it was already late at night, Xiao Xu said, "Sheng Go to sleep, son, don't accompany me"

"Well, good." Qin Sheng climbed to the inner side of the bed and lay down on his side, watching him skillfully let the bamboo strips slowly take shape. His eyes were full of concentration and tenderness. Even though life was so difficult, he was willing to adopt him and take care of him. Now Xiao Xu is very close to the image in his mind.What should I do if you are not?If you are, should I let you get out of here and live in peace?Or whether it is or not... Qin Sheng fell asleep quietly accompanied by the warm light in such thoughts.The only feeling left was the warmth that gently hugged him into his arms when he was in a daze.

A month passed by happily. Not long ago, Qin Sheng dug potatoes and sweet potatoes at the foot of the mountain next to the bamboo forest, which greatly solved the family's plight. When you go down, what should come will still come.

When Qin Sheng and Xiao Xu walked home in the setting sun, the crowd around the small river and the child who was washed away by the water broke Qin Sheng's long-standing fantasy.

After Xiao Xu woke up the child under his guidance, after the child said his name was Xiao Ruo, he had to face that this was the Xiao Xu he was thinking about, what should happen would still happen, his Xiao Xu would Suffering through those ten years, and he was powerless to stop it.

Qin Sheng sat on the corner of the bed with his legs folded, his already small body became even smaller, exuding an air of frustration, even if he said it, he would not be believed, he was glad that he could Use this small body to stay with Xiao Xu, and hate the age of this body that cannot save Xiao Xu.

"What's wrong with Sheng'er?" Xiao Xu asked worriedly looking at Qin Sheng who had been inexplicably depressed since the child appeared in the afternoon.

Qin Sheng didn't raise his head, and was still silently depressed. Xiao Xu sighed helplessly, put his little body into his arms, and comforted him, "Don't worry, Sheng'er, Brother Xiao won't adopt that child. Uncle has already agreed to adopt Xiao Ruo, don't be sad, Sheng'er, brother just ignores Sheng'er because he is eager to save people, it wasn't on purpose."

Qin Sheng bit his lips, and said aggrievedly, "Then what if the uncle next door doesn't adopt that child?"

"Uh..." Xiao Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then replied, "Then I will ask another family to adopt him."

Qin Sheng then asked, "Then what if everyone doesn't adopt him? Brother Xiao, will you adopt him?"

Xiao Xu was stunned by this question again, thinking about it carefully, it might really be.

Qin Sheng knew the answer when he saw his expression, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he swung his small fist to hit that thin but warm shoulder, "Brother Xiao doesn't want Sheng Er, brother Xiao likes Xiao Ruo" and started crying.

Xiao Xu was caught off guard, hugged the child in his arms with some distress, and quickly comforted him, "Brother Xiao likes Sheng'er the most, and he will never abandon Sheng'er, even if I abandon myself, I will not abandon Sheng'er."

The incoherent but sincere words successfully calmed Qin Sheng down. Qin Sheng slowly stretched out his arms to hug the still thin body, and buried the whole body in it, and said in a wet voice, "Brother Xiao also Can't like Xiao Ruo"

Xiao Xu became happy because of Qin Sheng's hug, and replied softly, "Well, brother Xiao doesn't like Xiao Ruo either, only Sheng'er, okay?"

"Yeah," the child in his arms couldn't see the expression, but replied very well-behaved and heartwarming.

Xiao Ruo, look, he said he only likes me, he is no longer yours.

As the candlelight dimmed, Xiao Xu gently wiped his red face with a towel. There were tears on that face, which made Xiao Xu very distressed. He never expected that Sheng'er would be so disturbed just by saving a child. It must be because of the same experience, Xiao Xu sighed in his heart, although it was the same experience, but all his mental energy was only enough for his mother and Sheng'er, for that child, he could only feel powerless.

Xiao Xu kissed the cute little face that was sleeping, put out the candlelight and fell asleep holding the little body, and the child in his arms shrank back into his arms as if in an illusion.

Xiao Ruo's body looked slender and small, but she woke up the next day, was able to get out of bed, and was able to come to thank her uncle accompanied by the uncle next door.

"Big brother, little brother, thank you for saving your life." Xiao Ruorou said weakly, if she didn't look carefully, she really looked like a little girl.

Xiao Xu had a gentle attitude but said with a hint of alienation, "You're welcome, as long as you're fine."

Qin Sheng didn't even have a good look at people he didn't like, so he just said rudely and went back to the room.

Xiao Xu smiled apologetically, sent them out and went back to the house to coax the awkward child.

Although Qin Sheng knew that a five-year-old child should not be angered by what was about to happen, he couldn't calm down after his Xiao Xu was involved.

The next two days passed smoothly, Xiao Ruo came over to play from time to time, Xiao Ruo was very happy that Qin Sheng's attitude towards him seemed to improve, especially tonight Qin Sheng was even willing to keep him here overnight.

The night was as deep as water, everything quieted down with the darkness, Qin Sheng was sleeping in Xiao Xu's arms, breathing steadily and lightly, seemingly asleep, but silently waiting for that moment to come.

The gentle knock on the door completely awakened Qin Sheng's nerves. It was Xiao Ni, this gentle woman who gently awakened the sleeping Xiao Xu, and asked him to hide the two little children into the cellar with the quilt. Qin Sheng was hugged by Xiao Xu and saw the woman's determined face through the eyes. Although Xiao Xu was only ten years old, he felt sensitively that his mother might leave him, but his questioning was blocked.

"Xu'er, take good care of yourself." Under Xiao Xu's pale face, Xiao Ni turned and left after saying this. Her child is only ten years old, but he is so sensible and self-reliant. She really doesn't want to give up, but she has to.

The gloomy cellar was closed again, but even the candles could not be lit. The darkness seemed to destroy all hope in people's hearts.Qin Sheng silently got up and hugged the silent boy tightly, the surrounding was very quiet, only the sound of silent breathing and slowly moistening shoulders.Qin Sheng knew Xiao Xu's mood, because he wanted to protect his own life, the sorrow and self-blame of his mother's departure, he knew it but he couldn't stop it, he was powerless to stop it.He can only stay with him, suffering from his sadness, the silence spreads...
