strange neighbor

Jiang Duo couldn't stand the neighbors pointing and whispering to them, so he took his mother upstairs.

The three sat on the sofa, and Jiang Duo's mother sat opposite him, rubbing her hands together uneasily, as if she didn't know where to put her eyes. On the coffee table, Ding Shijin noticed that he didn't even seem to want to pour a glass of water for his mother, so he stood up and walked into the kitchen, brought a glass of hot water, and put it in front of her.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Jiang Duo asked.

"I... Mom really misses you so much, Xiaoduo... Can you give mom a chance to redeem her sins and let me make it up to you... and your dad, and you and your brother."

Jiang Duo smiled sarcastically: "What do you compensate me for? Compensate me for being neglected and blinded by others since I was a child, or compensate me for going out to wander when I was only five years old and robbing wild dogs for food?"

"How do you want to compensate me? Ms. Jiang Guirong, tell me."

In just a few words, Ding Shijin's heart was overwhelmed, his throat was sore, and at this moment he wanted to hug him into his arms without hesitation.

Jiang Guirong pursed his lips for a long time, with a panic expression on his face that he tried his best to control. Jiang Duo smiled: "I didn't expect that, I remember everything. I remember how you treated me back then."

"No, no, Xiao Duo, Mom and Dad knew it was wrong. We were young back then, and we didn't know how to be parents, but we love you!" She rushed over and hugged Jiang Duo's knee and cried loudly.

"Being parents for the first time? Young? Hahahaha——" Jiang Duo was out of breath with a smile: "Then how do you know how to love your eldest son! Could it be that your family is different from other families? Sir, is the eldest son born later?"

"It's not like this... because, because your brother is sick, Xiao Duo, you are all my sons, and the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh. How can I not feel sorry for you?"

Jiang Duo lowered his eyelids and looked indifferently at the old man with gray hair and tears all over his face. Suddenly, he flicked his sleeves and pulled out a knife. The gleaming knife landed at Jiang Guirong's feet. She raised her head and looked at Jiang Guirong in surprise. Duo.

"Since the palms and the backs of your hands are full of flesh, then you can cut off a piece of flesh from both the palms and the backs of your hands, and let me have a look."

When the words fell, Jiang Guirong forgot to cry for a while, but Ding Shijin's eyes widened, and he put his hand on Jiang Duo's hand. His usually warm and dry hand was cold at this time, and he suddenly felt a twitch in his heart. The stuffy feeling made him unable to breathe, so he could only bend down slightly.

Jiang Duo mechanically turned his head and glanced at him, the sadness and resentment revealed in his eyes made his heart skip a beat, he didn't care about other things, he opened his arms and hugged Jiang Duo, stroked his hair, trying to calm his pain mood.

Jiang Guirong stared blankly at the two hugging each other, the impact was too great, and he forgot the situation at this time: "You are gay!"

Jiang Duo's body, which had just been relaxed, froze all of a sudden. He turned his head and stared at Jiang Guirong: "Do you want to cut or not?"

"I……"

"Jiang Duo, calm down." Ding Shijin tightened his hand.

Looking at Jiang Guirong's wandering eyes and hesitant expression, Jiang Duo said, "What do you want to admit to me? Let me listen to you. If you can impress me, I can consider it."

Jiang Guirong was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly held Jiang Duo's hands, with a sincere expression on his face: "Xiao Duo, your father and I have been looking for you everywhere since you were lost. We have never given up all these years, and my mother loves you too." Ah, I want to know how you are doing, whether you are eating well, whether you are wearing warm clothes...Xiao Duo, give us a chance, and our family will never be separated again, okay?"

"Never separate again?" Jiang Duo sneered: "Back then, I waited at the place where I was thrown for half a month, but no one came to find me. May I ask where you went to find me? Huh? Jiang Guirong, our mother and son The love is over when you throw me like a rag. Now I eat well, live well, and have... loved ones, if you really want to make it up to me, don't bother me in the future. "

"No, Xiaoduo, we are a family. There is no overnight feud in a family. It doesn't matter if you don't understand the hearts of parents. You come with me first, and we get along slowly, okay?" She stood up and wanted to pull Jiang. Duo go.

Jiang Duo shook off her hand: "This is my home, I'm not going anywhere, you... walk slowly, don't see me off."

Jiang Guirong rushed over again, begging him not to be so cruel, just follow him.

But Jiang Duo just turned his back with red eyes, tightly holding onto Ding Shijin's hand.

Jiang Duo was determined not to pay attention to her, Jiang Guirong also saw it, she stood up, her footsteps were a little vain, and she forced a smile: "It's okay, Xiao Duo, it doesn't matter if you don't recognize mom for a while, it doesn't matter if you get angry with mom, mom I'll see you again another day..."

As he spoke, he walked slowly to the door, turning his head three times a step, waiting for Jiang Duo to call her, but until she stepped out with one foot, Jiang Duo still didn't move, she sighed, turned and left.

The moment the door closed, Jiang Duo seemed to have lost all his strength, his legs gave way and he almost fell to the ground. Ding Shijin hugged him quickly, and Jiang Duo hugged Ding Shijin back in this posture.

"Don't move, Jin, I'll hold you for a while." Jiang Duo's voice was very hoarse, and his body was trembling slightly.

Ding Shijin's eye sockets were also sore, he couldn't comfort others, and could only accompany Jiang Duo silently.

After a while, Jiang Duo spoke again: "I waited for half a month at the place where I was left behind in that small town, and I didn't even dare to leave at night, lest they come back and find me, I'm only five years old...it's so dark, so cold, I'm hungry and sleepy, luckily I have five yuan from my uncle in my pocket, but I was cheated by the stall owner when I was buying steamed buns, five yuan The money only gave me two steamed buns. After I finished eating, I had no money. At first I could bear it, but later I was really hungry, so I had to go to the garbage. The apple cores and boxed lunches that were thrown away after others finished eating , rotten steamed buns, I rely on these to survive, if they want to find me...how could..."

Jiang Duo's voice choked so hard that Ding Shijin felt as if countless needles had been pricked a thousand times in his heart. As Jiang Duo confided, the pricking became more and more painful... Hurt?

Is this what pain feels like?

He felt that he was not breathing well. The little Jiang Duo of the year seemed to be right in front of his eyes, how he struggled and held hope, until the hope was wiped out, and he was forced to become a street child. Other children were still acting like a baby in the arms of their parents. At that time, he had to endure hunger, cold and fear, and struggled to survive.

He couldn't help tightening his arms, and gently kissed Jiang Duo's temples and cheeks, hoping to soothe his emotions. If Jiang Duo didn't say anything, he really couldn't have imagined that Jiang Duo came here like this when he was a child.

"Ajin..." Jiang Duo called him in a low voice.

"Well, I'm here."

"I miss my master so much..." he choked up.

Ding Shijin patted him on the back lightly: "Let's find him together, shall we?"

Jiang Duo nodded, and Ding Shijin felt his shoulders warm and wet.

The two hugged for a long time until Jiang Duo's mood calmed down. His eyes were red and he seemed a little embarrassed. He stood up and turned his back to Ding Shijin: "I'm going to take a bath."

"it is good."

It was already six o'clock in the afternoon, Ding Shijin glanced towards the kitchen, thought about it, and then walked in.

After Jiang Duo took a bath, except for the redness in his eyes, he had disappeared from the embarrassment just now. There was a burst of fragrance from the kitchen. When he walked over, he saw Ding Shijin cooking, and the white steam floated in the Above the kitchen, the person he loves is wearing an apron and cooking vegetables in a hurry. He can't help leaning on the door frame, watching this warm scene.

Feeling the gaze behind him, Ding Shijin turned his head: "Did you finish washing? Go sit down, it will be fine soon."

But Jiang Duo didn't go out obediently, instead he walked in, put his arms around Ding Shijin, and stuck his whole body on his back: "I love you, Ajin."

Ding Shijin paused with his hand, then hummed in a low voice.

Jiang Duo was a little dissatisfied, and as soon as he exerted his arms, he hugged Ding Shijin even tighter: "What, Ah Jin, I don't want to listen."

"Me too." Ding Shijin smiled.

"What is it? Ah Jin—" Jiang Duo pestered him coquettishly, asking incessantly in his ear.

Ding Shijin put down the spatula in his hand, turned around with a sigh, held Jiang Duo's face and said seriously: "I love you too, Jiang Duo."

Only then did Jiang Duo smile with joy, his eyes were crooked, like a child, and he showed a row of big white teeth.

Ding Shijin looked at him speechlessly: "Go out, or the smell will smell again after washing."

Ding Shijin brought the dishes to the dining table, with a perennially calm expression that couldn't hide the uneasiness: "I... I'm not very good at cooking, so I'll just eat."

"Ah Jin made it, I will finish it all." Jiang Duo said, put a chopstick of lettuce into his mouth, chewed twice: "Delicious!"

Seeing his expression, Ding Shijin didn't seem to be pretending, so he picked up a chopstick and ate it, but then spat it out again in the next second: "Don't eat it, it's unpalatable."

"It's delicious!" Jiang Duo took another bite, eating with relish.

"You lost your sense of taste?"

"No, it's really delicious!" While speaking, Jiang Duo had already eaten half of the plate.

In the end Ding Shijin didn't care about him and let him eat up all the dishes on the table.

In the following days, Jiang Duo's mood seemed to have calmed down. Except for pestering Ding Shijin, he had been studying to break the curse that Master left on him every day. In fact, he already felt that his abilities had recovered four or five times. It was done, but what he experienced in the past six months told him that these abilities were far from enough.

One day, he was practicing a new spell in the study, when suddenly the forehead of a little doll on the table lit up, he narrowed his eyes, grabbed the little doll and ran out.

After waiting for so long, the person who gave Ah Jin a dream killing array finally made another move.
