silver sea

Wen Youxia didn't leave their nest until Qiu Sheng fell asleep again.

The Donghe municipal government wants to "ban motorcycles" every three days. Before the actual implementation, Wen Youxia has no idea of ​​selling the motorcycles for the time being.The house he rented was not too far from Wen's house, and when he drove into the teacher's apartment complex, he saw an old and a young walking out.

Wen Haoqian, who was in the fifth grade, waved at him: "Brother!"

Wen Youxia said "um", and took him from Wen Dechang's hand.The old man frowned dissatisfiedly when he saw his car: "Dongdong's heart can't take it after running so fast for a while, you go take the bus..."

Wen Haoqian objected first: "No! I want my brother to take me with you!"

"Just ride slowly." Wen Youxia said, telling Wen Haoqian to hold on to a metal bar next to him.

For no reason, he didn't like being caught by Wen Haoqian in the backseat, probably just as he disliked having physical contact with anyone other than Qiu Sheng, like his private territory being violated.Wen Youxia handed him the child's helmet, and drove Wen Haoqian out of the community at a much slower speed than usual.

Wen Haoqian's examination itself didn't have too many items. The attending doctor read the results and gave some cliché precautions. Then he changed the subject: "Can I have a private chat with my brother?"

After the nurse took Wen Haoqian out of the consulting room, the doctor said to Wen Youxia: "I still recommend a heart transplant for the child's illness."

Wen Youxia lowered her head and didn't express her opinion immediately.

The doctor knew a little bit about the patient's family situation. The cost of heart transplantation is not a burden beyond the budget for ordinary families. The doctor sighed: "His situation... is still young, if you think it is okay to continue conservative treatment, Even if one day suddenly...transplantation is definitely the most curative solution, if conditions permit...forget it, that's all I can say, it's up to your family members to decide whether or not to do it and when to do it."

I'm not his family member, Wen Youxia tried to break free with these words on the tip of his tongue, but he finally held back and nodded sullenly: "Okay, thank you."

Wen Haoqian was waiting for him in the corridor. When he saw the man coming out, he ran to him and asked, "Brother, what did the doctor say?"

"It's nothing, let you have a good rest." Wen Youxia avoided his gestures of pulling her, "Dongdong, you're 12 this year, half an adult, don't be too clingy to me in the future."

"But you are my brother...not a girl..." Wen Haoqian complained, probably afraid that he would get angry, so he didn't move any more.

After leaving the hospital to send people home, Wen Dechang was giving extra lessons to several high school students. After he retired, he was rehired by Changdong Middle School because of the financial burden of his family and his teaching level. Take tuition and earn some extra money.

Wen Youxia bought some vegetables and fruits along the way, and put them in fixed places one by one.

After finishing all this, he originally wanted to leave, so that Wen Dechang would not have to stay for dinner after class—he always had mixed feelings about these occasional kindnesses.Wen Haoqian tiptoed into the kitchen: "Brother, are you going out now?"

"Band rehearsal." Wen Youxia lied without changing his expression.

"Can I follow?"

His words were similar to what Qiu Sheng said in the morning, but thinking of Qiu Sheng, Wen Youxia couldn't help smiling, and his tone softened: "No, our rehearsal place is far away, and it will be noisy if it is too loud. your turn."

"...I haven't even seen you play the guitar."

"That's Bess." Wen Youxia corrected subconsciously, and felt that it seemed naive to be serious with children, anyway, the other party wouldn't take it to heart, so she said, "It's nothing to listen to."

So he was not allowed to go, Wen Haoqian pouted sadly: "Every time you come back, you leave soon after."

Due to illness, Wen Haoqian is more sensitive than ordinary children.

When he was young, his parents had disputes, and they avoided him at first, but later Wen Haoqian was not a fool, he somehow pieced together the truth from the gossip of the neighbors in the neighborhood.After his parents left one after another, Wen Dechang doted on him, and his brother who was not related by blood took care of him. Although his life was not considered rich, he still maintained the self-willedness of a child.

Now Wen Youxia is just like his father back then. He first went out all day saying he wanted to make money, and then moved out of the house. He couldn't find anyone for a few days, and when he answered the phone, he said he was performing... He almost subconsciously thought that his brother would never come back one day up.

Wen Haoqian doesn't even count as a half-grown child, pretending to be pitiful is still somewhat effective.

"I have something to do." Wen Youxia said.

"Either you take me to watch the band rehearsal, I haven't seen it yet." Wen Haoqian bargained.

"no……"

Footsteps approached at the kitchen door, followed by an elderly man's voice: "Let's leave after dinner. After finally coming back, we don't even have a meal at home. What do people think of us when word spreads?"

"There is really a job." Wen Youxia said.

Normally, Wen Dechang would not keep him when he talked to this point—he was only polite before—but today, Wen Dechang sighed: "If you have a job and you want to eat, you can eat at home, okay? "

The last time Wen Dechang sincerely asked him to eat was not known how long ago, Wen Youxia misunderstood this as a long-lost concern, and was a little shaken, as if this meal could make him try to truly integrate into this family again, and he still had hope when.He convinced himself that since Qiu Sheng was with Gu Qi today, it shouldn't be a big deal.

"Then I'll tell the band." Wen Youxia said, and went to the balcony to make a phone call.

Qiu Sheng didn't let go of the creation and rehearsal for a second, and he was unexpectedly easy to talk about in terms of worldly relationships.Qiu Sheng fully understood his desire to spend more time with his family, so he acted like a baby.

"Come back at night?" Qiu Sheng asked, and after getting an affirmative answer, "It's time to go to Guangming Road for supper!"

Wen Youxia smiled: "Okay. Are you staying with Gu Qi this afternoon?"

"There's something going on in Lanhua Lane today, I'll go with him to see if we can have a drink."

"You can't drink too much."

"I know, I know, don't worry, you can stay at home with your brother and take care of him, so you don't have to worry about the future, right?" Qiu Sheng finished speaking logically, exaggeratedly exaggerating several kisses on the phone before saying goodbye he said goodbye.

In Wen Youxia's memory, that might be his last tender moment in Wen's house.

At that time, he didn't know Wen Dechang's calculations, and he didn't see Wen Haoqian's selfishness. He only thought that after many years of tolerance, the other party finally realized his conscience and tried to reconcile with him.And not only him, Qiu Sheng didn't feel anything wrong at all, and in "Let's Go" and "Happy and Happy", he was looking forward to the ending after Wen Youxia cleared the level.

Compared to Qiu Sheng, Wen Youxia is more like the dream maker.

Many years later, when Wen Youxia recalled that afternoon, he hadn't noticed it, but from the moment he connected the call to the police station, many things began to slip into the abyss silently.

"Brother, your phone." Wen Haoqian gave Wen Youxia the phone left in the living room to the kitchen.

Wen Youxia was washing the dishes, and at a glance, he found that it was an unfamiliar landline number. He didn't want to go hands-free, so he motioned for Wen Haoqian to lift it to his ear, and said "Hello" with ease.

"Is that Wen Youxia?"

His heart sank, and he turned off the tap: "Yes, I am."

"Our side is the Guangming Road Police Station." The formulaic notification broke the tranquility for several hours: "Your friend was temporarily detained because of the fight, and now it's mediation, but the family members need to come and deal with it, and pick him up right away. If you are free, please come to the police station as soon as possible."

Fights?

I have been in Lanhua Lane for a long time, and I am not a calm and kind person. It is not uncommon for disputes between the band and the band, between the band and the audience, and even between the audience and the audience. It is the first time Wen Youxia has been notified. police station.He had an intuition that something had happened to Qiu Sheng, and panic took over his entire mind for a moment.

"Can I ask who it is?" Wen Youxia said, and had already walked out of the kitchen to get his coat.

The policeman looked through the roster patiently: "Qiu...Qiu Sheng, he left your contact information, does this person know you?"

Her intuition came true, Wen Youxia almost lost her grip on the phone.

Did Qiu Sheng fight with someone?

Are you injured? How can it be so serious?What's the matter with him?

Gu Qi didn't hold him back?

Many worries occupied his mind in an instant, and before he could explain to Wen Dechang in detail, he went out, rode a motorcycle, and rushed all the way to the junction of Lanhua Lane and Guangming Road at the highest speed.

As soon as he arrived, he saw Lu Yining first.

"What's going on?" Wen Youxia took off his helmet, and didn't even bother to tidy up his messy hair.

Lu Yining was much calmer than he imagined, squatting on the curb opposite the police station with a cigarette in his mouth, pointing to the brightly lit gate: "I went to get a drink, and as soon as I turned around, Qiu Sheng called someone Woke up."

"What..." Wen Youxia was almost dumbfounded, "Where's Gu Qi?"

"Gu Qi is also inside."

He was completely speechless: "...What's going on?!"

"Talk while walking." Lu Yining pinched out his cigarette, and headed towards the police station with Wen Youxia's shoulders on his shoulders, complaining bitterly, "I gave in to them, I just didn't see anyone, it was really just a glance Didn't see it!..."

He finished the matter in a few words.

At dusk today, several well-connected livehouses in Lanhua Lane opened a small outdoor venue. Because of the registration, there are patrols around to pay close attention to the situation.Many members of the band were there, including the three of Woken. Xu Ran groaned, but when he saw that Xia hadn't come, he molested Qiu Sheng and told him to give up his bass player.

Qiu Sheng couldn't hear this sentence the most. From Bai Yanhui to Xu Ran, no one who said something like that would not be beaten by him.But Qiu Sheng still remembered Gu Qi's reminder, and only drove Xu Ran and his drummer out of the venue.

This was just a small local conflict, and it didn't turn into a big disaster.

Like Wen Youxia, Lu Yining felt that Qiu Sheng was the most unstable factor. Seeing that Qiu Sheng stopped and hid away to play mobile games, he felt at ease playing his own.He hooked up with a new young girl with big eyes and wearing short skirts in winter, who seemed to be interested in him too. The two were chatting happily and going to drink when suddenly the girl pointed to the scene of the commotion: "It seems to be fighting Yeah."

Lu Yining went over with the mentality of watching the excitement, and finally saw Gu Qi with a bruised nose and a swollen face, a group of familiar but unfamiliar regulars of Lanhua Lane, and Qiu Sheng who was carrying a beer bottle and was about to smash each other on the head.

At that moment, all the blood rushed to the top of his head, he threw the girl away, rushed over to hug Qiu Sheng and carried him to the side.

The beer bottle shattered so loudly that it attracted the police.
