Dead after eight years [rebirth]

Cheng Nanding's skateboard arrived half a month later.

After the courier arrived, Cheng Shuibei sat on the lawn at the door and took it apart. When he took it apart, the painting his brother chose was a puppy with a black head and a white tail.Four characters were written under the puppy's feet - South, North, Ci, and Zha.

You see, Zhang Fei, who has been called a puppy for so many years, finally compromised with Cheng Shuibei's name.

Cheng Shuibei cried while hugging the skateboard, the puppy chirped over and licked his elbow, whining and whining, as if asking where my brother Xiaonan went.

When my brother fell down, the inflatable mattress downstairs hadn't been set up yet, and Cheng Nan and Lao Yang were killed on the spot together.

Cheng Shuibei hugged his younger sister Gou into his arms. My brother had just finished his college entrance examination and hadn't gone to study yet, so he just left.

But no one answered him.

The only answer to him was the increasingly heated discussion in the society about whether Cheng Nan was an act of righteousness or not.

Cheng Shuibei has no intention of discussing this, whether he is mean and selfish or miserable, Cheng Shuibei is willing to be a person hated by everyone, as long as his brother can come back.

My brother couldn't come back, but what came back was an identical celadon urn, which was placed with my father in the sunny room at home.

Shouldn't he be the one who jumped to his death? Shouldn't he be the one who died young at the age of 26? Then why did his brother leave on his birthday?

Eight years, eight more years, eight years after meeting his brother, he still failed to keep Cheng Nan.

God played tricks on him again, when Cheng Shuibei thought that raising his brother to adulthood would be a smooth escape from the fate of premature death.

Cheng Shuibei hugged the skateboard, leaning against the vines that hadn't grown much, and sat for a whole day, not even knowing when Zhang Ci'an would come back.

"Xiaobei, eat something." Zhang Ci'an crouched in front of him, wanting to reach out to hug him, but seeing Cheng Shuibei's faint intention to dodge, he withdrew his hand again.

Cheng Shuibei shook his head.

I do not want to eat.

If he didn't eat badly that day, he could have stayed by Cheng Nan's side to stop everything from happening. Cheng Shuibei regretted it and never took a sip of milk again.

After Cheng Nan left, Cheng Shuibei has always been like this, unwilling to communicate or see people, except for three meals a day, cooking three meals and putting them on the dining table to watch it cool, that is, someone hiding in the small villa. dazed in a corner.

Sometimes I cry, but more often I forget how to cry.

Dong Sining immediately thought of Cheng Shuibei's condition, and she came to see her every three days, but Cheng Shuibei turned her back with a single sentence.

"I'm not sick, my brother said I'm fine."

Cheng Nan wanted to study psychology in the past, more than half of the reason was because of Cheng Shuibei, how could Cheng Shuibei get sick again after his brother left?

Zhang Ci'an shook his head at the senior sister standing outside the door, Xiaobei still refused to see a doctor.

Dong Si Ning sighed, turned and left.

After the senior sister left, Zhang Ci'an sat on the ground not far from Cheng Shuibei. It rained heavily the day before yesterday when he picked up Cheng Nan's ashes, and the yard was still muddy. Covered with mud.

He knows the feeling of losing a loved one better than anyone else.

Zhang Ci'an sat quietly watching Cheng Shuibei curled up like a child.

He hooked his fingers, called Cheng Chacha, the puppy beside him, and stuffed a roll of newspaper into the puppy's mouth, motioning for it to show Brother Xiaobei to read.

Cheng Chacha did as he did, put his head in Cheng Shuibei's arms, rubbed his nose against his chin, and asked Brother Xiaobei to read the newspaper.

Cheng Shuibei opened it to read, and it read in the newspaper - the young man stood up to save others and was judged for his bravery.

The picture of his brother taking a group photo with the No. [-] Scholar was tagged and posted next to the report. After a few days of fermenting online public opinion disputes, Cheng Nan finally got what he deserved.

Cheng Shuibei lowered his head and read the newspaper in a daze.

"There will be a commendation meeting two days later and I want to invite family members to attend," Zhang Ci'an said cautiously, "If you don't want to go, I can help you refuse."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Cheng Shuibei's current situation is not suitable for going out. Zhang Ci'an has little hope, but just wants to tell Xiaobei the news that Cheng Nan has received the honor he deserves, and hopes that he will feel better.

Cheng Shuibei raised his head unexpectedly.

"Brother Ci, you can go with me."

He is Cheng Nan's family member, his brother's honor, and he wants to take it back for his brother.

Cheng Shuibei was willing to go out, Zhang Ci'an finally felt relieved, because he was afraid that Cheng Shuibei would have any mood swings, so he simply took Cheng Zhacha with him.

The Hero Commendation Conference was held near Cheng Nan's high school. Many of his brother's classmates came, including Xiao Wen. Xiao Wen was sitting in the first row with a flower in his arms. When he heard Cheng Nan's name, he was already crying badly.

What surprised Cheng Shuibei was the boy in a wheelchair who presented flowers to him.

That is Lao Yang's son, Xiao Yang.

It is he who has been writing letters and accepting interviews, begging to return Cheng Nan the honor that Cheng Nan deserves.

After this incident, the media noticed this child in a suffering family who was suffering from illness. After receiving help from loving people, Xiao Yang's medical expenses were settled.

With tears in his eyes, he said to Cheng Shuibei: "I believe that brother Xiaonan must have wanted my father to live very much at that time."

Yes, Cheng Nan is so good, he really wants Lao Yang to survive.He should still want to jump into the icy lake to fish out his father, want to hold Cheng Shuibei who is about to jump off a building, and want to accompany Shao He who still doesn't understand anything.

Cheng Nan wants everyone to be well.

Fearing that the client would be emotional, Xiao Yang and Cheng Shuibei had a quick meeting and were sent back to the hospital.

Cheng Shuibei is not a merciful person, sometimes he would complain, complaining about why other people's suffering was retribution on Cheng Nan.Complaints come and go, and I feel that I should blame myself.

Blame himself for being a scourge.

At the commendation meeting, Cheng Shuibei delivered a speech as a family member, and his speech was only one sentence.

"Brother, goodbye."

He wants to send his brother and father home.

After the commendation meeting was over, Cheng Shuibei returned home and began to take the initiative to eat.Lie on the bed and sleep after eating, so well-behaved.

Zhang Ci'an followed him all the time, wanting to hug him, but afraid that Xiao Bei would be so fragile that he would break if touched.

Standing at the door, he heard Cheng Shuibei murmuring under the blanket, "Brother Ci, I want to go home."

He was homesick, and he missed the small courtyard of Cheng's family with his father and brother.

Zhang Ci'an couldn't bear his distress any longer, and lay on his side beside Cheng Shuibei, carefully putting an arm around Xiaobei's waist.

"Go home, okay, let's go home, Brother Ci will take you home."

Zhang Ci'an left the company affairs behind and caught the earliest flight back to Yunan with Cheng Shuibei the next day.

On the way, Cheng Shuibei held the ashes of his father and brother in his arms, and refused to let go for a moment. Even when Uncle En came to pick him up, Cheng Shuibei didn't seem to hear him when he talked to him.

Cheng Shuibei didn't want to go to other places, as soon as he returned to Jiangshuo, he went straight to the small courtyard of Cheng's family in the west, and sent his father and elder brother home without stopping.

Cheng Shuibei didn't want them to wander by his side anymore.

When the little monkey moved out, he tidied up the yard and put all the old furniture back in place.Cheng Shuibei slept on the dilapidated little bed where he used to fight with his brother, looking up at the moon outside the window.

Where will father and brother be buried?

The cemetery was too crowded, and the house was too deserted. After much deliberation, Cheng Shuibei only thought of a good place.

So under the management of a big price, a new grave was erected next to the old man's home.

The three members of Mr. Zhang's family were buried together. Cheng Shuibei arranged his father and elder brother in a similar shape with a few steps away. The triangle was one corner away. Cheng Shuibei refused to leave after the burial. , Dig a hole for yourself, lie in it and try the size.

Once I lay down, I don't want to get up.

Zhang Ci'an didn't let him go any longer, and walked over to squeeze with Cheng Shuibei in the small pit no bigger than a bathtub, hugging his little Bei tightly with both arms.

——If one day dies, I think we will still embrace each other.

Cheng Shuibei lay watching the moon rise and set, without a single tear.

He finally got up from the pit, dragged Zhang Ci'an to bid farewell to his father and elder brother with him.

"Dad, brother, Xiaobei is gone, and I will come to see you when I have time. I am relieved to have Uncle Zhang taking care of you."

Cheng Shuibei bowed and left, looking back at the small pit left for him before leaving, without saying a word.

After returning to Jiangshuo, people from the small courtyard of the Cheng family visited every day, and most of them came to express their condolences after hearing about Cheng Nan's incident. Cheng Shuibei told them that his brother was buried in a very quiet place, and that they should take good care of him. Study and don't want to be disturbed.

There are also some who just want to see Cheng Shuibei.

Hou Chuang helped Xiaoru to come in, Cheng Shuibei stared at his sister-in-law's slightly bulging belly, Hou Chuang took the initiative to explain: "It's been four months, and the baby will be born at the beginning of spring next year."

Some people leave, some people are born again, how fair life is.

Since his brother's burial, Cheng Shuibei's condition has improved a lot. This time when Hou Chuang came to visit him, he even took the initiative to go to the kitchen to fry crispy pork in the corridor, humming a song.

"The mountains and rivers are beautiful and the sun is high, so the wind is blowing, and the little boat is coming, and it is shaking all the way to the south..."

Hou Chuang was so frightened that he hurried to help him, but Zhang Cian stopped him with his hand.Professor Zhang looked at Xiaobei and said, "Let him do it. He won't think too much if he has something to do. Xiaonan likes to eat crispy meat the most. You should eat more later."

So at dinner, Hou Chuang ate two whole plates of crispy meat, and didn't say a word until he hiccupped.

After seeing off Hou Chuang and his wife, Zhang Ci'an habitually embraced Cheng Shuibei and fell asleep at night.

Cheng Shuibei touched his arm that was more and more tightly wrapped around his waist, and said softly: "Brother Ci, you don't have to hug it so hard, I won't sneak away."

How can you not use your strength? Cheng Shuibei has a history of leaving others behind and jumping off a building.

Zhang Ci'an kissed the back of his neck, like a dying fish longing for the sea.

"Let me hug you, I feel alive only when I hug you."

Zhang Ci'an said so.

After thinking about it, let's put the ending part up in advance.
