13,

It was around eight o'clock in the morning when An Ran returned home covered in sweat.He came back much later than usual today because he had to wait for a box of six-inch cakes.

He put the things on the dining table, and glanced at the door of the bedroom with bare feet: Xi Zhaowu hasn't "off work", and the little girl Lu'an is still sleeping.

Tsk~ The relationship was sneaky a few days ago, but it was just for my birthday!hey-hey

When An Ran finished taking a shower humming a song, Xi Liu'an was already sitting on the side of the bed with downcast eyes: "Brother, give me a hug~"

Xi Liu'an is eight years old, but he is only as tall as an ordinary little girl who is five or six years old.Because of the long-term confinement life, the IQ of the little girl film is not as good as that of ordinary eight or nine-year-old children.At this moment, she was closing her eyes, lying in An Ran's embrace completely dependently, her trembling eyelashes seemed to be still fighting against the sleep demon.

"Xiao An? Would you like to see what's on the table?" An Ran walked towards the living room while shaking the little girl awake.

Ms. Xi Liu'an struggled to open her eyes a little, and she suddenly woke up.Because her eyes were caught off guard by a naive little white bear, they met on a narrow road: "Cake! Ahhh, it's a cake, the kind in the Little Red House, um, is it the one with white cream?"

"Yes, but you are awkward, okay?" An Ran screamed in pain as she endured the rolling attack of the child, "Okay, okay, you go brush your teeth and wash your face first, and then we will pick up brother, and brother Let's open it together. OK?"

"Okay, okay, pick up brother, let's pick up brother quickly!" Xi Liu'an turned his face away, jumped down from An Ran's arms, and turned into a woman like the wind.

When An Ran took Lu An to the breakfast shop, there were not many customers in the shop.The uncles and aunts in twos and threes brought their own tableware and packed them away. Xi Zhaowu was helping to pack the bags, and the old prince was lighting the fire in the back stove.

"Grandpa Wang, are you busy?" An Ran took the bag from Xi Chaowu's hand, "I'll come, you go get a bowl and take my sister to have breakfast."

Of course, Wang Changlai had no objection. He had said earlier that children should not be allowed to stand by the frying pan: "Come on, grandpa will fry millet dumplings for Xiao An, and ask brother to make spicy soup for Xiao An!"

Xi Liu'an is a full-fledged foodie, upon hearing this, he immediately shrank behind the big table that was taller than her, and kept looking forward to the rice dumplings.

"Grandpa Wang, is it hot?" An Ran looked at Xi Liu'an running towards her brother, and turned to face the old prince, smiling so flatteringly, "How about I help you add firewood?"

"Hmph, brat." Wang Changlai is a wise man who sees the essence through appearances. He glanced at An Ran with a cold face, and decided in his heart that nothing good happened to this kid.

"Hey, grandpa." An Ran casually found an excuse, "Today my house is in the mist, didn't cause any trouble?"

Xi Chaowu and causing trouble are not on the same line by nature.

What's more, children regard work as their life! Don't look at the kid as small, but people treat work with 12 points of energy.

An Ran was complacent, so she heard the old prince's leisurely voice.

"Huh? Something happened today." Boss Wang squinted at An Ran, "Old Li took his grandson away before you came, and the child was crying with snot all over his face."

"...My child has never had any trouble with anyone." An Ran looked at the child sitting in the distance, her smile froze.

"It's not children fighting," Wang Changlai waved his hand, interrupting An Ran's words. I couldn't hold back and scolded Old Li the first time."

"...Then, the child should cry, and I will cry in fright when you are fierce!" An Ran said, thinking to herself: What does this have to do with his child.

Before he could figure it out, the old prince had already stood up and waved in the direction of the two siblings: "Xiao Wu, come here."

Wang Changlai: "You recite what Big Fatty said this morning, and tell grandpa again."

Xi Chaowu's eyes wandered around the faces of the two of them, and then he lowered his head and opened his mouth slowly: "Will you, don't you see, Tang, Li Bai... Hu'er will exchange for fine wine, and I will share with you." Eliminate eternal sorrow."

The sonorous and powerful recitation ended, and the noisy downtown area seemed to press the pause button, and the surroundings became quiet.

"Brother," the soft and sweet voice unique to children brought An Ran back to his senses, "Grandpa, I'm done reciting."

"Well, grandpa will take you to watch TV."

An Ran stood there in a daze, and unconsciously ruined the pure white plastic bag on the hook.

The old prince was telling him: Xi Zhaowu is very smart, don't delay others by yourself.Although he knew it from the beginning, being pointed out by someone clearly turned his heart upside down in an instant.

"Stinky boy, you really treat the shop as your own!" The old prince who had gone and returned saved the plastic bag and threw it on the table without looking at it. He lit a cigarette and said, "I After seeing Xiao Wu, a bastard, you will be able to honor your ancestors. You are an orphan anyway, or you can give me the two children to raise!"

The old prince didn't force An Ran to reply immediately, he even brought out a big bag of snacks, saying it was a birthday present.

This gift is not very distracting, perhaps it can be said that it is more distracting to Ms. Xi Lu'an.

On the way home, Xi Liu'an was obviously more excited than before, wandering around to the bag that An Ran was carrying from time to time, casting obsessive eyes on the bright red plastic bag.

"Ms. Xi Liu'an, can you be more reserved?" An Ran grabbed the little girl's hand with quite a headache, "There are cars on the road, please walk for me."

"Okay, I'm just looking at it!" Xi Liu'an is now close to An Ran's hand, holding his small face against the back of his hand, and his corner of the eye is cast on the bag in the other hand, "Brother, you What’s in it? Yes, is there a lollipop? Where’s the popsicle?”

Xi Liu'an didn't know much about snacks, but he thought about the lollipop all the way over and over again, causing Anran to almost turn into a lollipop that was about to melt.

On the contrary, Xi Chaowu was much quieter. After the performance at the breakfast shop, he was like an eggplant beaten by frost, a little wilted.

"It's over, let's go into the room first." Anran opened the door, handed the bag to Lu'an, and leaned against the door to change her shoes, "You go in too, and watch her. Glutton, it seems like I have treated her badly." of."

Talking unintentionally, but listening with intention.An Ran didn't notice that the child's face suddenly turned pale, and then floated in like a ghost.

Inside the house, Xi Liu'an sat on the ground and turned the snack bag upside down.Colorful and beautiful packaging instantly piled up all over the floor like a hill.

Xi Liuan has seen some of them, and some has not, but the only thing that is certain is that she has never eaten any of them.

"Brother, this, this red one, Xiaoan likes it!" Xi Liu'an picked up a bag of potato chips and shook it until it smelled delicious.She giggled too, and finally lay down on the snack mountain.

She laughed alone for a long time, and finally realized that no one in the room laughed with her.

"Brother?" Xi Liu'an got up from the ground on all fours, and the brother she couldn't understand was reflected in her young pupils: "Brother, eat?"

"Brother won't eat it," Xi Chaowu squatted down and said, "Xiao An also doesn't eat, okay? Didn't Xiao An say that elder brother bought us a cake, a big cake with a lot of cream! Doesn't Xiao An like to eat cakes?"

Only then did Xi Liu'an remember the little bear box she fell in love with at first sight, and immediately turned her head to look at the dining table: "Yes, Xiao'an also likes cakes!"

"But, Xiao An can't eat any more cakes after eating these. Which one would Xiao An want to eat?"

In fact, Xi Zhaowu himself didn't know what he wanted to express.It's just an inexplicable feeling that made him clearly understand that they might need to choose their future path from these two foods.

"Stop playing, it's all over the room!" An Ran stood in the middle of the room, pointed at the things on the ground, and raised her chin to point at the cake on the table, "Which one should I eat first? I can only eat one, and I will eat it later." Still have to eat."

"Cake." Xi Zhaowu answered first.

"Well, I'll share it with you first. I'll heat the rice in the pot for you. I'm going out for a while. Don't run around!"

Only then did Xi Zhaowu notice that the eldest brother's clothes had been changed into the black short-sleeved ones he usually wears for the morning shift: "Big brother, are you going to work?"

An Ran froze for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, I'll go out and hand in the account book."

It was the same with An Ran before, going out every few days to pay the account book, but Xi Zhaowu never saw him change into old clothes for this.

"Aren't you going to eat cake with us? Don't you eat any food?"

An Ran glared at the child, as if he disliked the other party's housekeeper's questioning, he thought to himself: Throw this little brat to the old prince, it's too f*cking annoying.

But what he said was very calm: "Yes, the lunatic and I are Uncle Huayi who came to our house that day. We made an appointment to have dinner at the unit and talk about work."

Xi Zhaowu stared wide-eyed, and nodded his chin seemingly: "Oh. Let's save the cake and eat it together when Big Brother comes home! We don't eat snacks, we will eat them together with Big Brother."

"..." An Ran Bolan's heart was ironed very comfortably by this flattery, and she ravaged the child's head, "You have such a sweet mouth, you are a clingy little man! Come on, I'm leaving!"

When An Ran helped Li Feng write the challenge letter that day, she knew that there was a stake in making a gang fight.

At that time, he felt that there was no need to risk his life to make money.But children need to go to school, and they need a registered permanent residence, and black household registration requires a lot of money.

And he is very short of this money now.

When An Ran arrived, Li Feng and the others were already outside the abandoned factory building in the old city.

"Hey, I'm going, I thought you weren't coming!"

"No, the children at home are too clingy." An Ran took a step back calmly, avoiding the other party's arm, "Aren't there nine people? Is there anyone else?"

An Ran remembered that the place, time, and number of people were written in the challenge letter.Now that the time has come, but there are only six people, I feel even more mysterious.

"Hey, don't mention it! It's all fucking busy and inconvenient. I was thinking about calling them to eat, and there is no inconvenient time!" Li Feng didn't seem to trust An Ran's fighting power very much, and quietly moved people aside , "Brother dei, if you can come today, you are my brother of the Kowloon Gang! Don't be afraid, just hide behind me..."

"Boss, Rhubarb is here, heck, haha, he even brought a milk doll! I'm afraid he wants to kneel down and beg for softness..."
