[Rebirth] Bucket List

It can be clearly felt that Aunt Lu is not happy.

In fact, Aunt Lu would be unhappy and Mu Lianxia had already guessed it.In a sense, Aunt Lu now regards Mu Lianxia as a new sustenance, and turned her attention from her son to Mu Lianxia.

And Mu Lianxia knew that this was not a long-term solution. If Aunt Lu continued like this, she still wouldn't be able to get out.

The smile on Aunt Lu's face has disappeared, and she looks a little depressed: "...you...do you despise Aunt Lu's place?"

Mu Lianxia almost panicked.He shook his head immediately: "No, no, Aunt Lu, how can you think that way! I, I'm just not used to it."

Aunt Lu sighed, and smiled again: "Then come to Aunt Lu's place when you have time."

Mu Lianxia pursed her lips and responded in a low voice: "Okay."

Aunt Lu can be said to be the first elder Mu Lianxia met who has goodwill towards him.He rarely came into contact with elders, and it was the first time he met someone like Aunt Lu.

Mu Lianxia is not a person who leaks emotions.In his previous life, he had low self-esteem and gloomy at this time, and then he learned to pretend and behave differently in front of different people, but in private he was expressionless and emotionless.Now he is also, although he is no longer cowardly and inferior, but he is no longer the original innocence.

This is the second night, and he lives in the room of Aunt Lu's dead child.

There are still posters of those stars in the room, and a row of comic books on the table, it looks like he is still there.

He sighed.

When he went out with his luggage the next day, Aunt Lu saw him off at the door, and Mu Lianxia's hard-talking made Aunt Lu stop going to Mu Lianxia's rented house to find out.

Send the luggage to Li Ruifeng, ask about the layout of the neighborhood, and set off to buy the necessities.

The suitcase that Mu Lianxia brought when he came to Shuanghuai contained nothing but some clothes and a few souvenirs from the past.So he must buy the bedding and daily necessities after he arrives at school.It happened that he was going to live with Li Ruifeng for a while, so he could buy all the sheets and quilts, but he would not buy them at school.

As I said before, Li Ruifeng has convenient transportation, and the bus at the gate of the community goes directly to the big shopping mall.

The prices in Shuanghuai City are higher than those in Fusha, but they are not outrageously high. Mu Lianxia, ​​who has experienced such prices once in his previous life, is also prepared.He was going to the nearby business district, which was considered a bustling area, where everything was available, and the price was relatively affordable.

What's more, I have stayed there for so long in my previous life, and I am familiar with it.

***

The more I went to the place where I used to have memories, the more feelings Mu Lianxia felt.

In his previous life, Mu Lianxia was horribly naive. He was deceived for so many years, and he didn't realize until the end that everything was a deception.

Looking at it now, everything is going well, but where was it going well in the previous life?At that time, he came to Shuanghuai with almost no money left in his hands except the tuition fee.The tuition fee is the bottom line and he can't move it. He has a standing ticket for two days on the bus to Shuanghuai. It is difficult for him to rest for a while if there is no one seat for the time being.And on the first day after arriving in Shuanghuai, he rented a bed in a small dilapidated hotel in a daze, and hid under the quilt in that dilapidated room and cried for half the night.

Then came out to work.

He had a hard time in those few days, even if he was living under the fence with his aunt, he still had no worries about food and clothing, and the work he did was at most housework or something.After arriving at Shuanghuai, he wanted to earn money for his life.At the end of July, it was so hot that he handed out leaflets under the scorching sun and pretended to be a mascot... He would do whatever work he could. Although he wanted to give up countless times, he gritted his teeth and persisted.

Soon the so-called turning point appeared.

Mu Lianxia looks good, his father has a good face, and his mother is rare and beautiful, so Mu Lianxia's appearance is naturally very good-looking.When he was handing out leaflets that time, a passerby looked back at him for a long time, and then came over and asked him if he wanted to work in a bar.

At that time, Mu Lianxia actually hesitated, but he went anyway.After all, compared with the job he was doing at the time, the bar was much better.

***

The sound of the bus arriving at the stop brought Mu Lianxia back from his memories.

There were a lot of people on the bus, and quite a few people got off at this stop.He got out of the car following the flow of people, and walked into the shopping mall with ease.

Mu Lianxia has always been a planner.Now that you have a plan for what you want to buy, you won't waste too much time.Until he accidentally knocked down a box when he was buying bed sheets in the self-selection mall, and when he knelt down to pick up the box, he met a pair of bright eyes.

——A four or five-year-old child was sitting on the ground, not conspicuous at all surrounded by a large pile of quilts and sheets.

It was a little boy of four or five years old, with soft black hair, wearing white short sleeves and denim overalls shorts, stepping on small sandals, curled up in a corner with his legs hugged.

Then, he was stalked by children.

Mu Lianxia doesn't think he is a kind person, but he doesn't mind helping others within his ability.But for this kid...he really didn't know what to do.

Back to just now, although Mu Lianxia met the child, he didn't take it seriously. The child probably got separated from his parents, and the radio should be ringing soon.

Thinking so, Mu Lianxia got up and prepared to leave.But as soon as he put the selected sheets into the cart and took two steps, the child got up and ran over, following behind Mu Lianxia.

Mu Lianxia didn't take it seriously, so she followed him as much as she wanted...until the child followed him to the cashier and went out with him again.

Mu Lianxia had a headache.

This has all come out with him, and it is obvious that he can no longer take it seriously.

Mu Lianxia sighed, turned around and squatted down, and met the child's eyes again: "Why are you following me?"

The child looked at Mu Lianxia silently with big eyes, without saying a word.

"I'm leaving...wait for mom and dad here, okay?"

The child immediately brewed tears, and stretched out his hand to grab the corner of Mu Lianxia's clothes, the tears would not fall in his eyes, it was very pitiful.

Mu Lianxia sighed again: "What's your name?"

This time the child answered him, with a soft and small voice: "Sisi."

For some reason, looking into Sisi's eyes, Mu Lianxia's heart suddenly softened.He stood up, reached out and rubbed Sisi's hairy head, then stretched out his hand to Sisi, and Sisi naturally handed her hand to Mu Lianxia.Mu Lianxia took Sisi with one hand, and with the other hand took the trolley containing the things he bought just now, and walked to the dessert station at the side, and then bought a cone for Sisi and himself. Sitting in the rest area provided by the dessert station, they licked the cone obediently together.

Naturally, Mu Lianxia ate faster than Sisi, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Sisi who ate herself like a little cat.

Mu Lianxia laughed out loud, Sisi raised her head in a daze, not knowing what happened.

It was rare to be happy, Mu Lianxia smiled and took out a tissue to wipe off the cream on Sisi's face, and then reached out to rub Sisi's little head, feeling really good.

Sisi also finished eating the cone, and then reached out to grab the corner of Mu Lianxia's clothes.Mu Lianxia smiled at him: "Sisi told uncle, why are you here by yourself?"

Sisi stopped talking.

"Can't you tell uncle?" Mu Lianxia was a little confused.

Sisi kept staring at Mu Lianxia, ​​but said something unrelated to the question: "...not uncle, but brother."

Mu Lianxia, ​​who suddenly remembered that he had returned, couldn't help laughing again.No wonder children are said to be angels.How long have you known Sisi?Mu Lianxia laughed several times.

He stretched out his hand to pick up Sisi and put it on his lap. Although the child looked small but the weight was not light, it seemed that the family took good care of her.And although the clothes on the child were not of a big brand that Mu Lianxia knew, they were obviously not cheap.

So why is Sisi hiding in the mall alone?Mu Lianxia was simply puzzled.

But Mu Lianxia doesn't know much about children's world. Although he likes Sisi a lot, and Sisi seems to like him a lot, but Sisi doesn't tell him anything, even if Mu Lianxia wants to help him, he has no clue. .It's been so long that I haven't thought about it on the radio. Could it be that the parents of the child haven't noticed that Sisi is missing?

Thinking of this, Mu Lianxia couldn't help frowning.Sisi, on the other hand, probably finally felt safe, sitting on Mu Lianxia's lap and tugging at his collar: "Brother... can you help me find my uncle..."

It was rare for Sisi to speak, and Mu Lianxia didn't think about why it wasn't her parents, grandparents or something but her uncle, and nodded directly: "Why is Sisi here by herself?"

Sisi tilted her head: "I came out with Aunt Liu... Then Aunt Liu left."

"what?"

"Aunt Liu said that her brother had an accident and asked me to wait for her. I waited for her for a long time and she didn't come back." Sisi spoke slowly, her voice was soft but clear, and her words were clear.When he said that, Mu Lianxia understood.Although he was dissatisfied with Aunt Liu that Sisi was talking about, he couldn't say anything.He rubbed Sisi's little head again: "Then does Sisi remember uh...uncle's phone number?"

Sisi pouted, but before she could speak, both of them heard a man's voice shouting Sisi's name: "Sisi—"

Sisi immediately jumped off Mu Lianxia's body, and went straight to the man who was standing at the gate of the mall and started yelling: "Uncle——"
