you're so stubborn

Xie Lang couldn't stay away from school for two days, so Xie Yuyu postponed the next day's liquid until the evening and lost.

Before going out, Xie Lang didn't give any instructions, just said to his grandparents, "It's cold today, you two don't take him out for a walk, just watch TV at home."

"Hey, fine, don't go out," grandma waved at him, "Go to school quickly, I'll call you if there's anything to do."

"Well," Xie Lang patted Xie Yuyu who was still hugging his lap, "Give up on being clingy, brother is going to school."

"Then you have to come back for lunch." Xie Yu said with a small face up.

"Oh, I got it, I've said it several times, it's really annoying, right?" Xie Lang moved his legs, "Quickly let go."

"Then why am I annoying again?" Xie Yuyu let go of his brother's legs, lowered his head and said pitifully.

Xie Lang smiled, reached out to rub his face, it was not slippery anymore, "Okay, don't pretend to be pitiful here, I will be back as soon as school is over...... Grandma will wash us later Put some face cream on your face, this little face was dry from crying yesterday."

"What's wrong with my face!" The child was terrified when he heard this, and quickly turned around to hug his grandma, "Grandma! Am I not beautiful anymore?"

Xie Lang took advantage of this time to leave quickly, and when he left the main room, he could still hear grandma coaxing the child, "Oh, it's beautiful, it's so pretty, let's go, grandma will take you to wash your face, it will be even more beautiful after washing."

Xie Lang used a kiss to coax Ou Chen well, and today he doesn't have any trouble with him anymore, he will follow him when he comes back for lunch, and he will follow Xie Duo for infusion in the evening.

With what happened yesterday, Xie Lang didn't persuade Ou Chen not to skip class, anyway, he skipped evening self-study, and evening self-study has no special meaning to a classmate like him who only knows how to fool the teacher.

If it is warped, it will be warped.

When he was about to go home after the infusion, Xie Lang didn't let him follow him anymore, not to mention whether Xie Yuyu would have a stomachache in the middle of the night and disturb Ouchen, but he said that Xie Lang wanted to draw at night, and Ouchen was not convenient to be there.

So Ou Chen could only go home in despair.

Ou Chen's birthday is next Wednesday, and like Zhou Shuo, he doesn't go to the village or shop.

Seeing that there are only a few days left, Ou Chen has been staying at Xie Lang's house on Saturday and Sunday, so two full days were wasted, and Xie Lang was even more worried.

Finally sent Ouchen back at night, Xie Yuyu had to cling to his brother to sleep, Xie Lang could only lie in bed and give him a leg for him to hold, and then he leaned against the bed with a tablet computer to draw.

It is impossible to go according to the original plan, Xie Lang can only cut out the complicated and keep it simple, and come up with a simple birthday present.

But to say it's simple, it's just a little bit simpler than the original plan, and it's still quite troublesome to get it done.

Xie Lang stayed up for four nights before he could prepare this gift.

As a result, the final picture was even simpler than the one he had cut out and simplified, and was basically replaced by stick figures.

Because Xie Lang really has no time to spare, Xie Yuyu has been yelling about stomachaches every day for the past few nights.

For two days, I had a stomachache and just wanted to have a bad smell, so it was fine, and I fell asleep after tossing for half an hour.

There were two days of pure stomach pains, there was nothing to do about it, Xie Lang could only hug and coax him, rubbing his stomach while coaxing him, this situation would take more than an hour.

Under such circumstances, Xie Lang could still prepare a birthday gift for Ouchen, and Xie Lang was almost moved by himself.

On Wednesday, Xie Lang took another leave of absence, saying that he was taking Xie Duo for a review.

Now the things that should be taught in school have basically been taught, and the rest of the time is reviewing, after all, the final exam is only a few days away.

So at this time, Xie Lang would be more relaxed, and he was going to take Xie Yuyu to the hospital without waiting for the old class to reply after taking leave.

In the end, before he left the main room, Aunt Jiang entered the courtyard with two big bags. This was another new clothes for Xie Yuyu.

Xie Lang was filling Xie Yuxuan's thermos cup with hot water, but he didn't see Aunt Jiang coming in.

"Auntie!" Xie Yuyu saw it, broke away from his grandma's hand about to put on his coat, and ran out to meet his aunt.

Pipi yelled after him.

Xie Lang glanced at the gate of the courtyard when he heard the commotion, and frowned at that moment, but he didn't call Xie Duo in directly.

"Hey!" Aunt Jiang saw Xie Yuyu running out, and quickly put both bags in one hand, freeing one hand to hold Xie Yuyu, "What are you doing out here, it's so cold outside, let's go for a walk , go in quickly."

"Come pick up auntie!" Xie Yuyu yelled crisply as he followed his aunt into the house.

"It's so good," Aunt Jiang was happy to see the child smile, and she was very happy when the child smiled, "Then give aunt a kiss later, okay?"

"Okay!" Xie Yuyu agreed loudly.

"Shout," Xie Lang filled the glass and walked over, looking at Xie Yuyu with drooping eyes, "Shout louder."

Seeing that his brother was upset, Xie Yu quickly hid behind his aunt with a smile.

"Tsk!" Aunt Jiang dragged Xie Yuyu to the living room, glared at Xie Lang and said, "Why are you attacking us!"

"I'm sick," grandma came over to help Xie Duo put on his coat, "I'll be choking on the wind later."

"Hey, I said why our little faces are getting thinner." Aunt Jiang hurriedly put down her clothes, squatted in front of Xie Yuyu and looked at him, "What's the matter? I caught a cold again?"

"No, gastroenteritis, it's all over, I'll go for a reexamination later," Xie Lang said, "Auntie, why are you here so soon."

"Aren't you here to deliver clothes to Xiao Yu'er? I bought them with my colleagues last weekend," Aunt Jiang changed the subject after she finished speaking, holding Xie's redundant face in distress, "Why did you get gastroenteritis?" Ah, whoops, it hurts my baby, come on, let auntie kiss you well."

"Auntie, please rest quickly." Xie Lang hurriedly pulled Xie Duo over, "Don't let you feel cold again just because we're already healed."

Aunt Jiang gave a lonely kiss, curled her lips and stood up, "Okay, if you don't kiss this time, you can owe it first, and save up for a kiss together, right, Xiao Yuer."

Xie Yu didn't say a word, he just laughed silly.

Xie Lang didn't say much, and glanced at the two bags of clothes, "Didn't you just buy a whole set of clothes last month? Why buy them for him again? Can't you spend a lot of money on your son?"

"Give him any good flowers, don't give him any flowers," Aunt Jiang said, "This dress is for our Yu'er to wear during the New Year. Come here, little Yu'er, Auntie will try it on for you."

"Okay..." Xie Yuyu loved wearing new clothes the most, and was about to walk over, but was stopped by his brother.

"Don't try it, auntie, just let it go," Xie Lang said, "He has to go to the hospital for reexamination."

"Oh, yes, I forgot about this," Aunt Jiang urged him, "Then you go, I'm going to the store too."

"Well," Xie Lang patted Xie redundant on the shoulder, "Say thank you to auntie."

Thank you so much sweetly chirping.

The result of Xie Yuyu's reexamination was pretty good, basically there was nothing wrong with it, Xie Lang was worried about his stomach ache all the time at night, so he asked the doctor what was going on.

The doctor said it's fine, the child has a weak stomach, and if he doesn't pay attention to food hygiene, it will hurt for a few more days.

Ask Xie Lang to go home and keep the children warm, don't drink milk or anything in the near future, drink more hot water to nourish them, and it will be completely healed in a few days.

Xie Lang felt relieved for the time being, and when he led Xie Yuyu to pick up Ou Chen, he was much lighter.

"Brother Ouchen!" Xie Yuyu lay on the window, and when he saw Ouchen coming out of the school, he quickly patted the car window and shouted.

Ou Chen naturally didn't hear it, but saw it, so he ran over quickly.

"What about going to the hospital for a reexamination?" Ou Chen asked as soon as he got in the car.

"It's all right," Xie Lang said, "Take the medicine for two more days and you'll be fine."

"It's alright now," Ou Chen heaved a sigh of relief and rubbed Xie's extra hat, "Will you still eat indiscriminately next time?"

"Don't eat indiscriminately!" Xie Yuyu leaned on Ou Chen and acted like a baby, "My brother has already criticized me."

"Didn't I hit you?" Ou Chen squeezed his two wrists, "Look at your two little hands, do you have a long memory?"

"Long, long!"

"Where did it grow? Show me."

"It's in your head, you can't see it."

The first thing Xie Yu did when he got home was to drag his two older brothers to try on new clothes.

"Where did you get the new clothes?" Ou Chen walked beside Xie Lang, ticking his fingers cryptically.

"Aunt Jiang bought it." Xie Lang squeezed his fingers, "She said it was for the New Year."

"Hey, Aunt Jiang's speed is good enough, I've bought the clothes for the New Year now," Ou Chen pondered, "That won't work, I have to buy a set tomorrow."

"You burn too much money." Xie Lang looked at him.

"Why did you burn too much money?" Ou Chen bumped Xie Lang's shoulder with a smile, and said in a low voice, "I shouldn't buy clothes for my brother-in-law."

"You just owe it." Xie Lang smiled, too lazy to argue with him.

Aunt Jiang bought a lot of new clothes, a blue down jacket, a set of long johns, a sweater vest and shirt, and two fleece pants of the same style and different colors.

I didn't buy shoes, and it was not popular for outsiders to buy shoes for children in the countryside, so Aunt Jiang never bought shoes for Xie Duo.

Occasionally, when she sees something she really likes, she has to ask Xie Lang to transfer money to her before she buys it.

"Why don't you buy red?" Ou Chen shook out the down jacket and put it on for Xie Yuyu, "It's so festive to wear red during the Chinese New Year."

"I wore red last year," said grandma, setting chopsticks on the dining table, "then I can still wear red every year."

"Then why don't you call seven colors to summon the dragon?" Ouchen said happily, "Go, let my brother and grandma have a look."

Xie Yuyu ran all the way and shouted, "Brother and grandma! Look at me!"

"It looks good, my good grandson looks good in anything." Grandma said with a smile.

Xie Lang was serving the soup, without turning his head, he followed his grandma's words, "It's pretty good."

"Brother, you didn't even look at it!" Xie Xie rushed to his brother again, "Look quickly!"

Xie Lang opened his eyelids and glanced at him. The child was already pale, but due to illness and diarrhea these days, his little face was a little paler than before, and he was also a little thinner.

Xie Lang didn't say anything on the surface, but felt distressed in his heart, and he didn't speak perfunctory again, and said sincerely, "You look good, you look good in anything you wear."

"Then can I wear it today?" Xie Yu asked.

"No." Xie Langsheng put down the bowl of good soup, wiped his hands with a paper towel, came over and pinched Xie Yuyu's neck and walked to the living room, "This is the clothes that Aunt Jiang bought for us to wear during the New Year. You won't wear them after the New Year now." New clothes are worn, be obedient, put them on now, and wear them after the Chinese New Year."

"Ah..." Xie Yuyu let out a disappointment, but soon figured it out, "Okay then! I'll wear it after Chinese New Year...but when is Chinese New Year?"

"Hurry up," Xie Lang looked at Ou Chen, "Brother Ou Chen help us put away our clothes, we can eat after we finish."

"Okay!" Ou Chen replied playfully, he liked that Xie Lang called him Brother Ou Chen.

It sounds very different.

Ou Chen never mentioned his birthday, Xie Lang thought he had forgotten that today was his birthday.

As a result, when sending Ouchen to Zhuangkou after lunch, Ouchen suddenly said, "Xie Lang, today is my birthday."

"Ah," Xie Lang didn't expect Ouchen to say this suddenly, and said quite casually, "Happy birthday to you."

"Just... gone?" Ou Chen looked at him a little confused.

"Otherwise," Xie Lang smiled, and asked him intentionally, "What else do you want?"

"Fuck, I don't want to ask you anything." Ou Chen was speechless, "I mean, I told you that today is my birthday, can you be polite and tell me when is your birthday?" ah?"

"...So you didn't know?" Xie Lang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Ou Chen suddenly mentioned this just to ask about his birthday, and he didn't expect that Ou Chen didn't know his birthday.

But after thinking about it for a while, I think it's not surprising that Ou Chen didn't know his birthday, after all, he didn't know when his birthday was from Ou Chen.

"You're talking nonsense!" Ou Chen glared at him, "Where would I know! You never told me."

"Okay..." Xie Lang said, "February [-] is my birthday."

"Dragon raises its head?" Ou Chen was a little surprised, Xie Lang's birthday is still a good sign.

"Well," Ou Chen's expression was a little silly, Xie Lang couldn't help but laugh, "I'll look up."

"Then you live in small characters?" Ou Chen was a little confused, "But didn't your cutie live in big characters?"

"I used to live in big characters," Xie Lang smiled and suddenly stopped laughing, "But Xie Zhicheng and my grandfather both thought that February [-] was a good day, and then I kept living in small characters."

"Then what size is your big character?"

"February 21."

"Okay." Ou Chen nodded, put his arm on Xie Lang's shoulder and said, "From then on, Brother Ou Chen will celebrate your birthday twice a year."

"...Come on, Brother Ouchen," Xie Lang didn't know what to say to him, "There are only a few birthdays in a lifetime, and if you give me two in a year, it won't be two years You can send it to me."

"Tsk!" Ou Chen tsk, he couldn't speak, but after thinking about it, it was the same reason, "That's fine, then we will celebrate February [-] from now on, the meaning is good."

Xie Lang didn't take this issue any more, and asked something else, "Then what did you say at night? Did you go home and spend time with your dad?"

"Where is dad at home?" Ou Chen took out his mobile phone and showed Xie Lang the WeChat message his dad sent him, "Did you see, dad let me eat and drink alone."

Xie Lang didn't see the words Eat well and drink well, he only saw Ou Chen's father transfer him a screen of money.

"...I suspect you are showing off your wealth to me." Xie Lang looked at him.

"Student Xie, please get rid of your doubts, I am." Ou Chen shook his phone happily.

"Get out of here." The two of them had already reached Zhuangkou before they knew it. Xie Lang pulled Ou Chen's arm off, thought for a while, and said, "I'll pick you up that night, let's have dinner together." .”

"Xie Lang..." Ou Chen was pulled down by Xie Lang, and then leaned up to hold his hand stickily, "You...don't just want to have a meal with me today, do you?"

"Then what do you want?" With people coming and going in Zhuangkou, Xie Lang turned slightly sideways to block the sight of others from probing, and let Ouchen play with his fingers.

"Stay with me at night..." Ou Chen asked in a coquettish tone, "How about it?"

Xie Lang understood what Ou Chen meant. He lowered his head and thought for a while, and when he was about to speak, he heard Ou Chen say again, "You don't have to accompany me to have dinner, and you can sneak out after the little cutie falls asleep, and then we will come out early tomorrow morning." Is it okay for the two of you to come back before he wakes up?"

The cautiousness in this sentence made Xie Lang feel a little uncomfortable. He stared at Ou Chen for a long time before suddenly laughing, "I've been thinking about this for a long time."

It wasn't embarrassing for Ou Chen to be seen through, but he laughed openly, "It's only been a few days, it's only been two days."

"I can accompany you, but I can't do anything with you," Xie Lang put away his smile, and looked at Ouchen seriously, "You know that."

Ou Chen was stunned for a moment, and then squeezed Xie Lang's palm happily again, "What are you thinking, young man, I just think you have worked too hard these days, look at the dark circles on your face. He didn't fall to the ground, and he didn't take a good look in the mirror when he washed his face in the morning, he hasn't been handsome these days."

Once Ou Chen chattered, he chattered happily again to Xie Lang's serious face.

"Is there?" Xie Lang touched his eyes, "I didn't even notice."

"When you notice, it must be the effect of dark circles growing all over the face." Ou Chen thought about it for a while, and shook his head in disgust.

"I'm sick," Xie Lang shook off his hand, "Hurry up and get lost."

The car called by Ou Chen arrived just in time, and he was no longer sticky, so he just said, "Then...that's the deal for tonight?"

"Tsk!" Xie Lang tsk at him, "You don't have ink!"

"Tsk!" Ou Chen also imitated him, "You can't ink! Is that the way to go?"

Ink!

Xie Lang sighed, "Ah, it's settled."

"See you tonight!" Ou Chen waved his hands and got into the car.

There were always people going back and forth at Zhuangkou, Xie Lang was too lazy to talk to him, but seeing Ou Chen waiting at the window eagerly waiting for him to reply, he had to force a sentence out of his throat.

".....See you tonight."

Xie Yuyu has been sleeping with his elder brother since he could remember. There were times when his grandparents cared about their little grandson and wanted to hug him to sleep, but Xie Yuyu refused to do it.

It's not that I don't like my grandparents, it's just that I can't do without my brother instinctively.

So when he heard Xie Lang tell him that he would sleep with his grandparents first tonight, the child started crying.

"Why are you going?" Xie Yu didn't eat the red bean paste buns in his hand, and asked him crying while holding his brother's hand.

"Hey," Xie Lang took out a piece of paper and wiped Xie Yuyu's tears, "Grandma, what you steamed for us is a small crying bun, why did you cry when you just ate it?"

"Go, go, go," Grandma ordered him, "It's annoying to make my grandson cry and blame me!"

Xie Lang smiled and stopped talking, and returned to the room with Xie Yu in his arms.

Xie was crying so much that he didn't even have time to eat the bean paste buns, but he still held them tightly.

As soon as the two brothers sat on the sofa, Xie Lang leaned over and took a bite of the bean paste bun in the child's hand. It was a bit too sweet, and he didn't like the sweetness.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Xie Yu waited for his brother to swallow a mouthful of bean paste buns, and asked again.

"Brother Ouchen celebrates his birthday today, and brother promised to accompany him." Xie Yuyu had a piece of red bean paste on the corner of his mouth, and Xie Lang raised his hand to wipe it off for him. "You are more obedient, brother will wait until you fall asleep at night before leaving." , Brother will be back as soon as you open your eyes tomorrow, okay?"

"But I fell asleep very late," Xie Yuyu still cried, "Brother can invite Brother Ouchen to celebrate his birthday at our house."

"It's too troublesome," Xie Lang said, "Brother Ouchen doesn't want to trouble his grandparents."

Xie Yuyu cried, "Then what should I do? What should I do when my brother is gone?"

"With grandparents here," Xie Lang shook his arms around the child, "We won't be left alone."

"But I'm scared..." Xie Yuyu cried even more fiercely. The child had never been separated from his brother, so he couldn't imagine what a night without his brother would be like.

But in fact, my brother went out many times behind his back, but he didn't know it.

"Why are you afraid?" Xie Lang tilted his head and looked at him. "We are more than six-year-old boys. If your brother is not at home, you should protect your grandparents. If even you are afraid, then wouldn't your grandparents be more afraid?" Are you scared, tell me, are you?"

Xie Yuyu blinked blankly, obviously a little persuaded, but the impoverished sense of justice in his heart was still not as violent as the fear of his brother not being around, so he still cried.

"But I'm still young, how can I protect my grandparents at such a young age?"

"You're not young anymore," Xie Lang saw that the child was already a little loose, and said again, "When my brother was your age, he could have carried you all over Xie Zhuang. If you are not pretty, brother will beat anyone, do you think there are people in our village who dare to say that you are not beautiful?"

Xie Yu thought about it seriously, then shook his head, "Not anymore."

It never occurred to me that it was impossible for my brother to have him when he was six years old.

"Then do you think my brother is particularly brave?" Xie Lang suppressed a smile and continued to fool the little fool.

"En!" The little fool nodded cooperatively.

"Then you have to be as brave as your brother, understand?" Xie Lang wiped away the tears on his face.

"Understood..." Xie Yu accepted the fact that his brother was not at home with him sadly, and put his arms around his neck and said, "Then you should come back early tomorrow."

"Where are you going?" Zhou Shuo blocked Ou Chen after the evening self-study and school.

"Is it you?" Ou Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

"This should be my line," Zhou Shuo said, "No matter what, I have spent more than N birthdays with you in wind and rain, and today you suddenly don't talk to me, it makes sense What about you!"

"To live with you?" Ou Chen leaned over meanly, and said in a low voice, "Then do you know that the person who will accompany me on my birthday today...have to sleep with me?"

"...Fuck!" Zhou Shuo hurriedly kept a distance of one meter away from him when he heard him say this, and even glared at Ou Chen with the expression of defending his innocence to the death, "Rogue! I belong to us Qianqian!"

"It doesn't matter who you belong to." Ou Chen put on his coat and impatiently walked towards the back door of the classroom. "Master, I'm going to find the one that belongs to me."

Xie Yuyu was still asleep, and Xie Lang couldn't come out for the time being, so Ou Chen called a car and went to Xie Zhuang to find him.

When Ouchen arrived and Xie Lang couldn't come out, Ouchen called his dad. Dad was busy, so he hung up after 2 minutes of chatting.

Ou Chen was free at the moment, so he looked through his cell phone and called his father, but his father was even more busy and didn't answer the call, so he sent a big red envelope of 18 yuan for his son to play with.

After ordering the red envelopes, Ou Chen replied to his father, becoming more and more generous.

Last year it was still [-] yuan, but this year it has doubled. If this calculation continues, it will be more than a hundred in two years.

Ou Chen thought it was funny, took a screenshot and sent it to Xie Lang.

- look at the big money my dad gave me for my birthday

- Do you think I should buy a car first or a house first?

- If it doesn't work, I'll give you another job first?

Xie Lang replied to him: It's really not possible, you should take a taxi home

Ou Chen held his mobile phone and laughed for a long time, the driver couldn't help but glanced at him.

When Xie Lang finally slipped out, it was already more than ten minutes later.

"Is the cutie fast asleep?" As soon as Xie Lang got into the car, Ou Chen hurried over and asked.

"Did I come too fast?" Xie Lang tilted his head, "How about I go back and coax for a while?"

"Go." That's what Ou Chen said, but he held Xie Lang's hand tightly, making it difficult for him to leave.

"Sick." Xie Lang smiled.

"Don't be sick," Ou Chen shook his hand, "Where are we going to eat? It's so mysterious, don't tell me."

"I won't tell you," Xie Lang pressed down his hand, and said to the driver, "Go to a tavern in Yunshui Lane."

The driver of the special car responded with a good voice, slowly lifted the accelerator and drove towards the destination.

"A tavern?" Ou Chen glanced at him quite unexpectedly, "Brother Xie Lang, something is wrong with you, you actually took me to a tavern?"

He bit the word 'tavern' very unceremoniously, and even his words were a little more inexplicably ambiguous.

"Then find a place for you to leave?" Xie Lang pointed to the dark Zhuangkou path outside the window.

"Tsk, can't you afford it?" Ou Chen happily bumped his shoulder.
