[Genshin] When Crumb Nut Leaves Tivat

Yang Lin's mother did not come in the end.

In every weekly phone call, she always said that she would come next week, but after a few weeks, she never showed up, and the week before Yang Lin's final exam, she didn't even call again .

The rain outside was pattering, and the rain in winter seemed to be heavier than in other seasons. It hit the edge of the door, crackling, like firecrackers exploding one by one, ear-piercing and disturbing.

"Beep beep..." Yang Lin hung up the phone that no one answered, and two lines of tears flowed down his expressionless face.

He didn't wake up from his daze until he heard the footsteps of Hu Tao at the door, and hurriedly wiped off the coldness on his face.

"Yang Lin Yang Lin! Our online shop earned 2000 yuan this month!" Since Hu Tao moved to Cheng Tong's place, she has come back for dinner every night. With several long-term cooperative customers, there should be a stable income in the future.For this reason, she specially bought a lot of food and came back, wanting to celebrate with Yang Lin, "What's the matter with you?" The room was dark, and Hu Tao fumbled for the switch, but before she could find it, she saw the switch leaning against the open window. On the other side, Yang Lin who let the wind and rain beat him.

The rain that slanted through the window wet half of Yang Lin's sweater. He didn't seem to notice it, but he looked at the walnut with a red nose.

"..." Hu Tao didn't ask any more questions, and drove him upstairs to change clothes, cleaned up the wet things by the window, and waited quietly for him to come down.

After waiting for half an hour, Yang Lin changed into clean clothes, straightened his back, and walked down unhurriedly.

It seems that this time the blow was big.Hu Tao looked at his red and swollen eye sockets, and thought of the phone number he just saw, and had some guesses in his heart.

"Let's eat something." Fortunately, what Hu Tao bought was cooked food, served with buckets of instant noodles, which could barely be called dinner.

Yang Lin took the instant noodles, poured boiling water, stayed there for a long time, waited until the noodles were completely cool, then mechanically raised the fork, and ate them one bite at a time.

"feelling better?"

Yang Lin nodded.

"I move back tomorrow?"

Yang Lin turned his head, his eyes gradually focused, but his eyes became complicated, as if sad, but also a little stubborn, "I want to wait for her to tell me."

She doesn't want me anymore.

"No." Hu Tao held his hand tightly, feeling the weakness of words for the first time.

After that day, Yang Lin returned to normal, no longer staring at the phone, he could seriously review the final exam, and joke with Hu Tao, but Hu Tao knew that he was waiting for a call.

On the afternoon after the physics exam, Hu Tao picked him up at school.

Her hair has grown back, her dark brown hair falls to her shoulders, and she wears a black flat hat. She is very young and cute, in stark contrast to the parents who pick up their children on weekends.

The surrounding parents chatted with her out of curiosity, and in the eyes of everyone, Hu Tao noticed the woman diagonally behind.

She wore a thick long down jacket to cover her slightly protruding belly. She should be about the same age as the people around her, but her youthful demeanor could be vaguely seen on her face.

Hu Tao felt that she was a bit familiar.

When she saw Hu Tao looking at herself, she was slightly astonished, and then smiled politely.

Before Hu Tao had time to return a smile, she heard the ringing of the school bell.

Not long after, a group of teenagers who had just finished their exams and were released ran out screaming and discussing the arrangements for tonight loudly.Behind them are good students who have just finished the exam and are eager to answer the questions. Together, three or two of them are arguing endlessly about the answer to the final big question...

Yang Lin was the last batch of students to come out, the kind who came out after helping the teacher clean up.

"Yang Lin!" Hu Tao waited angrily. Why did everyone else come out, but he was the only one who slowed down. Although she didn't say that she wanted to come to him today, she couldn't be made to wait like this.

Yang Lin heard Hu Taojiao's angry voice from a long distance away, trotted over, and was about to ask her why she came here, but saw the woman behind her.

"Mom..." Yang Lin stopped a meter away from them.

The woman whom Yang Lin called her mother was also a little surprised when she looked at Yang Lin and then at Hu Tao.

"So it's your friend, no wonder they look familiar." The corners of her mouth were bent, her eyes were very gentle.

"..." Yang Lin and Hu Tao were a little at a loss.

The three of them took a taxi home.

Yang Lin didn't seem to notice the abnormality of his mother's body. After chatting with his mother for a while, after breaking the restraint at the beginning, he talked more.

Mother Yang, like other mothers, pays special attention to the opposite sex around adolescent children. She seemed surprised when she learned that Hu Tao had just come to Yangjia Town this year.

"Really? I thought I'd seen you before."

Hu Tao only took this as a polite remark from an adult, and didn't pay much attention to it.

"So, you are partners now?" Her voice was as gentle as ever, but her eyes were not as warm as before. "But you are still young, so you should focus on your studies. You promised your mother, didn't you?"

Yang Lin has heard these words many times from Uncle Yang, and he never wanted to explain them to Uncle Yang, but he couldn't help explaining to his mother: "I have been studying hard, and I am not very involved in the store. A lot, and, and, now I can make a lot of money every month. Mom, you don't have to go out to work!"

Yang Lin's hands on his knees were clenched into fists. In his 14 years of life, he had never felt so confident and looking forward to it for a moment.With one's own efforts, the satisfaction of realizing one's wish is incomparable to any reward.

"Yang Lin." His mother's cold and low voice brought him back to reality, "Don't make trouble."

"..." Yang Lin moved his lips, unable to speak for a while.Sure enough, it was still not taken seriously.

Hu Tao sat on the co-pilot, turned his head sideways, glanced worriedly, and finally remained silent.

Half a month after Yang's mother came home, Yang Lin gained a lot of weight.

The joy of mother every day is to make different dishes for him to eat, all kinds of dishes he loved to eat when he was a child, and make some more. Yang Lin has never seen the dishes that can only be found in big cities.

The rest of the time, he just watched him do his homework, and the parents and children got along very well, except when Yang Lin picked up the paper.

"Mom, I promised you." Yang Lin didn't know why his mother was so sensitive, as long as he looked at the bamboo strips, he would be noticed, and even the bamboo strips in the house were cleared by her again and again.

Yang Lin didn't say anything, he regarded it as being stolen by a mouse, and when he ran out of a batch, he would accept another batch. Seeing that the deadline was coming, he finally couldn't help it, and told his mother about it.

"study well……"

"lesson complete."

The mother put away her earnest expression and stared at Yang Lin's face that resembled his father's, "I don't want you to follow your father's old path."

"I'm different from him!" The only person Yang Lin couldn't reconcile in his life was his father, and the most unacceptable thing was that others said he was like his father, "I don't want to make this my main business, I will study hard, and, He drank like that, I will never touch alcohol in my life!"

"Then do you know why he drinks?" The mother raised her head and stared at her son who was half a head taller than herself, her gaze gradually deepened.

"why?"

"Because he's crazy, in this business, crazy."
