uncle and nephew

At the beginning of school that year, Su Shi was arranged by the teacher to be the monitor, and Sun Letian also became the deputy monitor.The class cadres of primary school students are nothing more than managing discipline and occasionally presiding over a class meeting.However, Su Shi was a master who didn't like to show off, so Sun Letian took all these tasks and took them very seriously.

Su Shi spent his entire elementary school studying and playing with Sun Letian in this way.They climbed all the mountains around the town, touched all the rivers in the town, and found out which mountain has the sweetest fruit and which river has the most fish.They have cleared "Squirrel Wars" countless times, and even played classic games such as "Contra" and "Double Dragon" thoroughly.Thinking about those days later, Su Shi couldn't help thinking, if there was no Sun Letian, wouldn't his time be much, much less fun?

Amidst all worries and worries, Su Shi and Sun Letian were finally about to graduate from elementary school.

Su Shi walked out from the school gate, looked back at the playground where the dust was flying due to construction, raised the corners of his lips slightly, turned and walked forward.

"Hey, Su Shi, wait for me!" The boy's voice came from behind, Su Shi stopped helplessly, and turned his head to look at the boy running towards him happily, "Sun Letian, I will finally I warn you once, I am your little uncle, you can't call me by my name like that!"

Sun Letian curled his lips, rushed to Su Shi's side in one step, and then put his arm around Su Shi's shoulder, "I call you little uncle, do you have the nerve to agree? How many days are you older than me?"

Su Shi opened Sun Letian's arm, "I'm your little uncle, why are you embarrassed to agree?"

"Hey, why didn't you remember that you were my little uncle when you lied to me when you were young?" Sun Letian put his hands in his pockets and continued shaking his head, "And when you wet the bed at my house when you were young, and... "

"Shut up! When did I wet the bed at your house? You didn't wake up, did you?" Su Shi rushed forward and covered Sun Letian's mouth, "I'm your little uncle. If you have any opinions, ask your father."

The two teenagers quarreled on the side of the street for a while, then got up in disgrace, and continued walking towards the house with their shoulders linked.Half of Sun Letian's body was hanging on Su Shi's body, and he said lazily, "Oh, Su Shi, are we graduating now?"

Su Shi squinted at him, "What's your opinion?"

Sun Letian turned his head to look at Su Shi's side face, and he could clearly see Su Shi's long curly eyelashes.Over the past few years, Su Shi seems to have looked even better. He has just begun to look like a young man, with tall legs and long legs. There are many little girls in the class who secretly like him, but Su Shi doesn't even pay attention to them.

Sun Letian poked Su Shi's face with his hand. Every day he went up and down the mountain to play, but Su Shi didn't get tanned at all.Sun Letian secretly made up his mind that he must tan Su Shi this summer.

Su Shi knocked his hand off, "What are you thinking about?"

Sun Letian withdrew his hand and continued to hang on Su Shi's body. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said, "You have graduated from elementary school, Su Shi, are you going to the county?"

Su Shi tugged at the clothes that were wrinkled by Sun Letian, and frowned slightly, "My mother did call to mention this a few days ago. But, I want to wait." Su Shi lowered his head slightly, "Grandpa His health is getting worse, and I want to stay with him for a few more years."

After the grandfather turned 80 years old, his physical condition took a sharp turn for the worse. Later, he had an examination and found that he had cancer.Su Shi quietly looked it up in the book, and probably knew that it was impossible to be cured, and only hoped that he could stay by the old man's side for a while longer.

Sun Letian was also silent for a while, and it took a long time before he opened his mouth to tell a joke that he didn't know where he heard and changed the subject.Su Shi was amused by the face, and his eyelashes twitched with the smile. After all, he was still a teenager, and the two of them went home laughing and joking after a while.

Sun Letian went home to deliver schoolbags first, and made an appointment to play games at home for a while.Su Shi went home alone. When he opened the door, he felt his right eyelid twitch a little. He raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, "Grandpa, I'm back."

The room was eerily quiet. Su Shi threw his schoolbag on his bed, pushed open the door of grandpa's room, and saw grandpa lying on the bed with his eyes closed.Grandpa seldom lay down during the day. Even after he was sick, he would go for a walk or practice calligraphy as long as he was energetic. Judging from today's situation, he must be feeling unwell again.

Su Shi walked lightly to the bed, leaned his head over and touched Grandpa's forehead lightly. The cool touch made him a little confused, "Grandpa, are you feeling unwell? I'll ask Uncle and the others to come over and take you to have a look." ?”

Still no response.Some bad thoughts appeared in Su Shi's mind, and he slowly stretched out his fingers, tremblingly, towards Grandpa's nose.

Su Shi's eyes widened and he took two steps back, looking at his fingers at a loss.The door was pushed open, and Sun Letian walked in, "What's wrong? Grandpa is sleeping?"

Su Shi shook his head slowly, still staring at his fingers, Sun Letian glanced at his expression, suddenly felt a trace of panic, reached out and pressed Su Shi's shoulder, "Stay here and don't move, I'll ask Dad to follow me Grandpa, come here, grandpa will be fine, don't think about it."

Su Shi stood there in a daze, listening to the hurried footsteps of Sun Letian outside the door, and then heard more footsteps. Uncle, aunt, brother, sister-in-law, many people entered the room, making noise, Su Shi Pushed against the wall, he leaned against the wall and watched the adults busy, not knowing what they were talking about.

He saw his uncle's eyes were red, his brother's face was full of tears, and his sister-in-law covered her face and wept, leaning against the wall blankly. Grandpa, did he really leave this time?

The person who regarded him as the most precious grandson, taught him to read and write, spent the most precious time with him, the person who had the greatest influence on his life, and the person he admired the most died?

Su Shi knew that people were born, aged, sick and died. From the day he found out that his grandfather was sick, he knew that one day he would leave him.But now, when all this really happened, he was at a loss as to what to do.

Su Shi didn't remember whether he cried or not, and he didn't remember how long he stood leaning against the wall until a pair of cool hands grabbed his hand and walked out of the room.

Su Shi was pressed on the shoulder by Sun Letian, and Sun Letian said in Su Shi's ear over and over again with a crying voice, "Su Shi, don't be like this, can you say something?"

Su Shi's eyes widened, and he felt something moist slide over his cheeks.He buried his head in Sun Letian's shoulder, and finally cried out. Sun Letian hugged Su Shi all the time, and the two teenagers hugged each other on the day they graduated from primary school, crying bitterly.

The adults have been busy, no one has time to take care of these two teenagers.That night, Su Shi slept in Sun Letian's room. Sun Letian held his hand tightly and whispered in his ear over and over again, "Su Shi, don't be sad."

Su Shi stared wide-eyed at the ceiling, and tears continued to flow down his face.He didn't want to shed tears, because his grandfather told him that boys should look like boys and not cry casually, but he couldn't help it.Sun Letian turned sideways and curled up beside Su Shi, carefully reaching out his hand to wipe Su Shi's tears.

That was probably the first thing in Su Shi's memory that made him sad and somewhat hopeless, and at that time, the only person by his side was Sun Letian.

When Sun Letian woke up the next day, he found that Su Shi had a high fever.Mother Su who came back the night before hurried over to take a look, but she didn't have time to feel sorry for her son, so she was called away again.Sun Letian sat in front of Su Shi's bed, took Su Shi's temperature, changed wet towels, and fed him medicine.Su Shi didn't say anything, but cooperated very well.

On the day of grandpa's funeral, Su Shi got up and kowtowed three times in front of the coffin before being encoffined. No one told Su Shi what to do. He finished the kowtow earnestly, and then got up without a single tear on his face.Sun Letian later remembered that since that day, Su Shi seldom shed tears, but he didn't know that Su Shi cried like today again.

Those who leave will never come back, and the rest will live on.

After dealing with grandpa's funeral, the adults finally had time to arrange other things.Because of his grandfather's death, Su Shi no longer had any reason to stay in Yongning Town.Su's mother transferred Su Shi's student status to the county without discussing it with Su Shi.Su Shi didn't say anything after he knew about it, he knew in his heart that this was the most suitable arrangement.

Sun Letian was depressed for a long time because of this matter, but since Su Shi didn't say anything, he didn't even have the right to speak.It's just that during the last few days when Su Shi stayed in Yongning Town, he kept smirking.Su Shi saw it but didn't know what to say.

At that time, they were still so young, and the one-and-a-half-hour drive from the town to the county seemed to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.

For the next few days, Su Shi stayed at Sun Letian's house. Finally, the night before Su Shi left, Su Shi raised his hand and turned off the light, stared at the dark room, and said softly, "Sun Letian, do you know that the most important person in the county?" A good high school is No. [-] Middle School, right?"

Sun Letian let out a "hmm".

Su Shi turned sideways, his eyes sparkling, "In the past three years, if I hadn't been by your side to watch you study, would you have been able to pass the No. [-] Middle School?"

Sun Letian bit his lower lip and said nothing.

Su Shi continued, "I will also study hard, and then I will definitely be admitted to No. [-] Middle School. The rate of admission in the town is not high, but if you can guarantee that you are in the top five, you will have no problem getting into No. [-] Middle School. At that time Let's go to another school, maybe we can go to the same class, and we can go to the same university in the future, what do you think?"

"Okay." Sun Letian nodded, then realized that Su Shi couldn't see clearly and responded again.

"Okay, you promise me to do it. Don't promise me to finish your homework early last time, but I will accompany you to make up your homework when I come back." Su Shi's voice was soft with a hint of a smile.

Sun Letian muttered, "Since that time, I promised you what haven't you done?"

"So, let's do it this time too, okay?" Su Shi asked seriously.

"Okay." Sun Letian agreed decisively.

"Just three years. Besides, I will come back to see you during the winter and summer vacations, and you can also visit me in the county. It will pass soon." Su Shi said softly, as if telling Sun Letian, and then As if talking to myself.

Su Shi followed Mother Su to her home in County L the next day. Sun Letian stood in a daze at the street corner, watching Su Shi get into the car, and the car gradually go away.

That period of time was probably the longest period of time between the two people in their lifetimes. During that time, they each faced a new environment, re-polished their personalities, and became their unique selves.
