[First time] Burn it, brother-in-law!

"Grandpa Niu, what shall we have for dinner?" As soon as Aihua entered the house, he asked Master Niu to trick him into eating and drinking.

"Don't give it to him, Uncle Niu, I ate a lot in the restaurant just now!" Ah Ci stopped Aihua and looked around, but he couldn't find Ah Chu.Suddenly felt that the hem of the coat was being pulled, and thought it was Ai Zhong, but when he looked down, he saw a little girl with a crystal hairpin, who looked about the same age as her nephews, struggling to look up at his face.Ah Ci was stunned, and then asked Uncle Niu, "Did you see anything?"

"Of course I saw it! Otherwise, you thought it was Sadako? How could Sadako comb her hair like this..." Uncle Niu stroked the girl's bangs, "She arrived before you, the little guest brought back by your elder brother .This child is very obedient, not noisy."

The little girl was still grabbing the corner of Ah Ci's clothes, blinking at them, ignoring Ai Zhong and Ai Hua who were at a high level.

Ah Ci squatted down and greeted the little girl: "Hello, what should I call you?"

"My name is Xia Tian!" The little girl said with an aggrieved expression, "Remember this time!"

"Uh... what a good name!" Ah Ci felt that the child recognized him as Ah Chu, and that's why he was so familiar.He quickly moved out of Aizhong and Aihua to save the scene, "This is Aizhong, Aihua...you are the same age, there is no generation gap when playing together."

Ai Zhong greeted Xia Tian very politely.Aihua stared straight at her, as if she had a big piece of cream cake on her face, but unfortunately when she spoke, she was as spoiling as ever: "Will you steal my food?"

"Of course not! I'm an illegitimate daughter." The little girl loosened Ah Ci's clothes, pulled her skirt to both sides, moved her right foot half a step back to the left, slightly bent her knees, like an elegant little lady .She proudly said the words "illegitimate daughter", obviously not knowing the meaning of the word, but she didn't know where she heard it, so she quoted it in her self-introduction.

The "illegitimate daughter" Xia Tian brought back by the eldest brother - this is the only conclusion that Aci can draw from the confessions of Uncle Niu and the little girl.It's just that this conclusion is too ridiculous!

"Where's my elder brother?" Ah Ci looked at Uncle Niu, ready to ask the person concerned.

"He's in the bedroom. He said he didn't have any appetite, and he didn't eat dinner. He went in and handed the little girl to me, and went upstairs directly."

Ah Ci frowned: "When did he go out during the day?"

"I left after ten o'clock, and I just came back for a while." Uncle Niu tugged Ah Ci's arm and whispered, "I see that he has always had a gloomy face. Did you two quarrel?"

"You think he went on a hunger strike after a fight?" Ah Ci snorted, "He won't! Besides, I didn't say anything serious."

Uncle Niu had a clear look on his face, and it really was a quarrel.

Ah Ci coughed lightly in embarrassment, turned his head and went into the kitchen.

"What are you doing?" Uncle Niu followed and grabbed him, "When will I use you to cook? Tell me what you want to do."

Ah Ci rubbed his hands, hesitant: "I heard that millet porridge is good for stomach and digestion, so I want to cook a bowl for him... I made it myself, if he doesn't want to eat it, he has to show some face, right?"

"Okay, I understand! When you serve it up, you'll say you did it." Uncle Niu didn't mind taking advantage of him.

"Okay!" Ah Ci was waiting for this sentence, so he ran out to take care of the three children with confidence.

While peeling the chestnuts, Ah Ci asked, "How old is Xia Tian?"

"Almost six years old!" Little Xia Tian took Li Ziren, and the tutor thanked him nicely.

"Yo, it's bigger than them. Aizhong, Aihua, they have to be called sisters." But Xia Tian is shorter than the two little guys of the Yang family.Ah Ci peeled off another one, Aihua reached out to him early and took it.He can only comfort Ai Zhong, "The next one is yours."

When Ai Zhong got his own chestnut kernel, he didn't eat it, but stuffed it into Ah Ci's mouth: "Uncle, eat it!"

"Ai Zhong is so sensible!" Ah Ci chewed on chestnuts, smiled gently, and gave encouragement with his eyes.

Xia Tian looked at him and said seriously: "Let me tell you a secret... You really look like my father when you smile, but you don't look like you if you don't smile."

Ah Ci's smile froze, feeling that the possibility of an "illegitimate daughter" was on the rise: "Where's your mother?"

"My mother has gone abroad."

"Oh? Is it England?"

"No, it's heaven." Xia Tian's expression was very innocent, "Mom has gone to heaven to be an angel, you can fly without taking a plane!"

Ah Ci felt a solid punch in the heart. He felt sorry for the little girl. He didn't know when she would truly understand the meaning of "illegitimate daughter" and "heaven", and he didn't know if the day she understood the truth would be hated her father.

During this time, Uncle Niu had prepared millet porridge and appetizers for Ah Ci, and took over the three children.

Ah Ci looked at the cold dish and smacked his lips: "It's too fake, it doesn't look like I did it... You cut it too meticulously!"

"He said he has a bad appetite, how can he drink porridge without side dishes? Come on! This is to find a way, and your elder brother must understand. As long as you are willing to take advantage of this and admit your mistake, give him a step down, he will not He will care about who cooks the dishes." Seeing that he was about to argue, Uncle Niu said, "Admitting a mistake doesn't mean you are at fault. In fact, it is normal for a family to have a little conflict. You just have an occupational disease, so you have to make a mistake." Right and wrong are right and wrong. But home is not a place for reasoning, and it hurts feelings deeply..."

"I don't want to reason, I just want to remind you that the porridge should be cold if we continue talking."

Ah Ci entered the room with a tray, saw that Ah Chu fell asleep with his head covered, he put the tray down, and pushed it through the quilt: "Don't sleep, get up and eat something." Seeing that there was no movement on the quilt, he added, "I cooked porridge for you with my own hands. Give me a face, let's talk."

Ah Chu still ignored him, Ah Ci took out the lighter and fiddled with it, making a "dang dang" sound, but his brother remained unmoved.

Ah Ci wished he could use a lighter to light the quilt, of course, reason would not allow him to do so.

"You want to suffocate yourself?" He lifted the quilt, only to find that Ah Chu's complexion was not right, he was trembling slightly, and immediately forgot to ask about Xia Tian, ​​and his tone of voice changed, "What's wrong? Headache or stomach pain? ?”

Ah Chu opened his eyes slightly, still not awake, just breathing heavily.Ah Ci became more and more confused, reached out to touch his forehead, and pressed his own forehead to touch it uncertainly, and found that the temperature was indeed high: "Why do you have a fever? No, I have to go to the hospital immediately!"

Ah Ci took out a coat and put it on Ah Chu, and was about to carry him downstairs. Thinking of his nephews' imitation show, he felt inappropriate, so he shouted at Uncle Niu: "My elder brother has a fever, we are going to the hospital... you first Lock the three children in the house and release them later!"

Uncle Niu didn't understand the connection between going to the hospital and Guan Zi for a while, but he heard that Ah Chu had a fever, so he didn't bother to ask so many questions, so he coaxed the children into the kitchen.

As soon as the kitchen door closed, Ah Ci quickly ran downstairs with his brother in his arms, and drove to Chunhe Hospital.

……

Along the way, Ah Chu leaned against the seat and was confused.Ah Ci remembered the drunk driving time, his brother had a fever and kept chatting with him, and felt that this time it was much more serious, so he stepped on the gas pedal and rushed to the hospital.This time, I didn't meet the traffic police to check for drunk driving, but I was photographed by the electronic camera because of speeding, and I was deducted points and fined.Of course, this is all for later, right now he didn't realize that he violated traffic regulations again.

In the waiting room, Ah Chu became more awake, but he seldom talked, basically keeping the pattern of asking three sentences and answering two words.Ah Ci knew that he would be arrogant when he was sick, so he stopped talking, just waited on him carefully, and when he was more comfortable, he would naturally find something to say.

Ah Ci went to boil water for two cups of water, and when he came back, Xia Yuechun had already taken his seat just now.

"I heard from Xiao Qin that you came to see a doctor, and I thought he admitted the wrong person, but I didn't expect it to be you! Did you pretend to be sick to come to the hospital for an inspection? There's no need to pretend to be so real, right? You were fine when you left in the afternoon?"

To these three questions, Ah Chu didn't even bother to answer a single word, so he simply pretended not to hear them.

But Ah Ci heard something from Xia Yuechun's words. Obviously, his brother came to the hospital to see Xia Yuechun during the day.Speaking of which, Xia Tian is also surnamed Xia, could it be... He tentatively asked: "What is your relationship with Xia Tian?"

"I was born in spring, and the [-]-day photo was taken in summer, does it matter?" Xia Yuechun gave him a blank look, obviously finding this question boring.

Ah Ci squinted his eyes, seriously suspecting that this guy was deliberately pretending to be stupid: "Why does my elder brother come to the hospital during the day?"

Xia Yuechun raised his head to study Ah Ci's expression, and said after a while, "To visit old classmates or to check the work of subordinates, which reason do you think is more reliable?"

"It's the best way to smash your office."

"Well, you guessed it right." Xia Yuechun ended the topic without sincerity, "Don't wait for your number to be called, follow me through the back door."

Ah Ci carried his elder brother on his shoulders, and followed Xia Yuechun, turning left and right like a maze, and finally entered a presidential suite.

Ah Ci helped Ah Chu lie down on the big bed, and then asked, "Are you still in the hotel business?"

Xia Yuechun said: "This is a unique VIP ward in this hospital, and it was completely decorated according to the requirements of the chairman."

VIP ward?How can this look like a ward?Ah Ci really wanted to complain, but now was not the time to satisfy his appetite, so he finally held back.He touched Ah Chu's forehead and said, "It suddenly started to burn. I'm afraid there may be other inflammations."

"Why is it so evil? He was under a lot of psychological pressure and caught a cold again. It's not a big deal, the fever will subside after hanging up the water."

Ah Ci keenly discovered the breakthrough, and hurriedly asked: "You said that he has a lot of psychological pressure, what aspect do you mean?"

"The pressure of this age group is mainly due to poor work, no money in the bank, and children peeing on the kiln. Oh, and unharmonious sex life. Which do you think it looks like?" Xia Yuechun looked at him with gossip, and turned back one army.

Like being a dad!Ah Ci twitched the corner of his mouth, and replied, "If you don't want to tell me, just tell me, why go around in circles?"

"Well, I don't want to tell you." Xia Yuechun said naturally, "It's better not to inquire about irrelevant things."

"What is irrelevant? You said that he was so stressed that he had a fever. Can I not ask?"

"Yes, but as a doctor, I can't disclose the patient's privacy. When the patient's fever subsides, you can ask him!" Xia Yuechun rang the bell, "The nurse will be here soon, I have other things to do, so let's go first. "

"Forgive me not far away." Ah Ci said unhappily, what he hated the most in his life was this kind of unscrupulous people who spoiled half of the story and made excuses to get away.

After Xia Yuechun left, the nurse did a test on Ah Chu, put on a hanging bottle, and quickly backed out, leaving only the two brothers in the room.

Ah Ci dug out a box of cotton swabs from the cabinet, carefully moistened Ah Chu's lips with water.

Ah Chu looked at him, then turned his face to the other side.

"Don't get emotional!" Ah Ci persistently stretched out the cotton swab.

Ah Chu sighed and couldn't bear it anymore and said, "It's not that serious...don't scare me."

"I'm free, I can't get bored when I have something to do."

"...you go home." Ah Chu said weakly, "I have to go to work tomorrow."

"Whether I want to go to work tomorrow depends on whether you can reduce the fever." Ah Ci casually threw the cotton swab into the trash can.

"There is a doctor here, don't worry..."

"Why weren't you so sensible before?" Ah Ci didn't forget, the last time this guy used an orderly tone, asking him not to sleep and staring at the fluid change, "I'm leaving, who will watch the fluid for you?"

"I can do it myself."

"Are you confused by fever?" Ah Ci poked his forehead with his finger, "Is this still my elder brother? Why is it so different from the last time? Have a normal reaction!"

Ah Chu frowned slightly: "Do you think that I have always been... unreasonable?"

"It's okay at ordinary times, but when you catch up with minor illnesses and disasters, you will become a master and dictate everything to me. If panting can do it for you, it must be my job."

Ah Chu finished listening, closed his eyes and turned his head away without saying a word.After a while, Ah Ci thought he had fallen asleep, but he said slowly: "At home, I couldn't breathe. I seem to have dreamed of Dad...he is going to strangle me to death."

Ah Ci recalled the old incident of being beaten by an umbrella, and felt that the old man was really tough, but he was always very kind to Ah Chu: "Isn't it? You are a 'grade' in and out, how could he beat you?" So far, " "Score" seems to be three.

"He blamed me for delaying you..." The habitual smile on his face became forced, "I, am a lousy big brother."

Ash fell silent.He only mentioned the matter of "arching a pig" in front of his father's grave in the morning, and the old man came here in a dream so quickly to teach Ah Chu...Father, you are too old!

In Ah Chu's eyes, his younger brother's silence became the recognition of "poor". He choked up, gritted his teeth and continued: "Ah Ci, you are also blaming me in your heart? ... I am too selfish. From now on, I will I won't interfere with you again."
