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

Ah Chu fell into a deep sleep, and Ah Ci sat on the stool next to the bed, looking at him quietly, recalling how many similar situations he had pretended to be drunk in the past few months.

Ai Zhong and Ai Hua dug out two of Ah Ci's police hats from nowhere, and put one on each of their heads.Then he pushed open the door as usual, and rushed into the routine inspection of the "fighting arena" in a high-spirited manner.When Ah Ci saw them, he frowned slightly, and put his index finger to his lips, signaling the two brothers to keep quiet.When Ai Zhong received her uncle's hint, she immediately stopped talking.Aihua didn't have that insight, but shouted: "Wow! Uncle, you won too fast today!"

Ah Ci walked over quickly, dragged the two children out of the room, closed the door gently, and said, "Don't wake your dad up, he finally fell asleep. We can't duel today, you go back Sleep in your own room."

"We don't make noise, can we sleep here?" Ai Zhong is still fighting.

"No, there will be movement when going to bed." Ah Ci insisted.

Aihua immediately retorted: "You are much more active in bed than us!"

"I won't go to bed today!" Ah Ci's good temper has been worn away, he put on a straight face and said with his hands on his hips, "If you don't go back to your room, I'll send you to the detention center! Sleep on the bed Or stay in the classroom, choose by yourself!"

Seeing that he was really angry, the two little rascals didn't dare to argue any more, and obediently went back to the bedroom.

Looking at the backs of the two children, Ah Ci blamed himself, but he shouldn't have gotten angry.But no matter how sad the children are, there is always each other, who can comfort each other, but Ah Chu only has him—a younger brother who can't help much and always makes people worry.

Ah Ci sat by the bed all night, analyzing the pressure that Ah Chu had endured during these days, and thinking about what else he could do.

Unknowingly, the sky has gradually brightened.The effect of the sleeping pills was really good. Ah Chu slept until ten o'clock in the morning, but the quality of sleep was not good enough, and he still felt his head was swollen when he woke up.As soon as he opened his eyes and saw his younger brother, he lazily said "Morning".

"Morning... how do you feel?" Ah Ci asked nervously.

"Well, I feel..." Ah Chu stretched out his arms comfortably, and then said, "I feel that the bed is much wider! Why, Ai Zhong Aihua has already woken up?"

"I sent them back to sleep last night."

"So amazing!" Ah Chu looked at him adoringly, "Tell me how you did it!"

"I said I'm going to take them to jail, so I'm being honest."

"You can do it! We will do this from now on!" Ah Chu smiled, turned his head to look at his watch, hurriedly got up, and said, "Yo, it's already this hour! But there is still time, wait for me to wash up, let's go snack block!"

"Today, you are not allowed to go anywhere except the hospital." Ah Ci said solemnly, "Brother, you can't push yourself like this anymore. I remember once I went to the hospital to visit Zhuiming, and you ignored me on the way home. I locked myself in the guest room, didn't I have a headache that time? I thought you were angry with me, and even called to argue with you... Do you know how regretful I am now? If I can't help you, but also Keep pulling your hind legs, then I..."

"Where did you go!" Ah Chu cut off his words, and said with relief, "I didn't have a headache before yesterday. I was really angry with you the day I stayed in the guest room!"

"...Let's not talk about the past, but you did get sick last night, and it's obviously beyond your control. You can't continue to be passive like this. Now I also understand your situation. If you If you play haha ​​and coax me like no one else, you just don't treat me as a brother."

"Why do you say such serious things?"

"Because your illness is far more serious than what I said." Ah Ci held his hand and said, "I hope you can promise me three things: first, you will not hide alone when you are uncomfortable, and let me Come to take care of you. Second, let me help you share everything that has not been arranged in work and life. Third, the operation must be advanced, no matter what reason you have, you can't be so exhausted anymore. "

Ah Chu thought for a moment before saying, "I can't agree to you. Because I made such a decision last night."

……

The children were very disappointed that they didn't go to the zoo and the snack street.On the way to the Children's Palace, Ai Zhong's eyes were red with grievances, and Ai Hua directly complained about his uncle's words, but unfortunately, his uncle didn't care at all.

Ah Chu kept his word. He contacted the surgeon who was in charge on the same day to advance the operation date by a week, and gradually handed over the company's affairs to Ah Ci to handle.It's just that the big car, as Ah Ci expected, showed no sign of being repaired at all.

After a week has passed like this, Ah Ci has gotten used to the comfort of taking a nap on the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, but Ah Si is still not quite used to Mr. Er, who suddenly became radical——A Ci was not stern, and Recently, he had a lot of preoccupations, and he immediately brought invisible pressure when he got in the car.Especially when Ah Chu was not around, the air in the car could condense into icicles.

"The boss is going to have an operation next week, should he be hospitalized a few days earlier?" Ah Si tried to chat with him.

"He wants to be hospitalized one day earlier." Ah Ci sighed, a little helpless.

"That may be because time is too tight, and he still has things to deal with."

"From the time he was diagnosed to now, he has been preparing for several months. How much more can he do?" Ah Ci suddenly realized that there was still one very important thing that he hadn't done—send the two little guys to Heya Shuna go.He felt bitter and fell silent.

Ah Ci's job in the afternoon was to attend a charity event for his brother, although he was not asked to speak, but he had to sit in the audience until the event was over before leaving.It was almost four o'clock when we returned. Looking at his watch, Liu Ah Si hesitated: "In one and a half hours, it's time to pick up the child. Should I go home for a rest now, or go directly to the school gate?"

"Let's go home." Ah Ci wandered outside for a long time, a little worried about his elder brother, and went home to make sure that he was not sick, and then went to pick up the child, feeling at ease.

It's a pity that things backfired. When he returned home, he became even more disturbed—the elder brother was gone.

"He left at noon." Uncle Niu said, "He didn't tell me where he was going, he just said that he had an appointment with friends."

Ah Ci immediately dialed his brother, but only got a reminder of "not in the service area".I have no choice but to try to contact Xia Yuechun: "Tell me the truth, is his plan to hide and do surgery secretly?"

"That's Plan A, which has been scrapped a long time ago." Xia Yuechun said, "You know his condition now, so what's the need for him to hide?"

"But the operation is next week, who else can he go to at this time?" Ah Ci asked anxiously, scratching his messy hair.

"How do I know that! I'm not a human trafficker, why do you two want someone from me when you can't find each other?"

"...Let's do this first, I'll ask someone else." Ah Ci hung up the phone and called Yu Qiyang and Yu Youhe, both of whom said they didn't see Ah Chu.Holding his mobile phone, he walked back and forth in the room twice, and suddenly remembered the thing to be done, so he hurriedly called the preschool teacher: "Hello, I am the uncle who loves Zhong Aihua, I have something urgent to ask them, can I Can't you let them answer the phone?"

"Eh? Didn't you pick up the child at noon?" The teacher asked in surprise.

"...Then it's all right." Ah Ci ended the call and sat on the sofa in a daze.He had already made mental preparations to be separated from the children, but he was not ready yet.

The ringtone of "Only one step away" suddenly reminded Ah Ci that Ah Chu would definitely confess to him before school ended at 5:[-] and told him not to wait at the school gate.He took a deep breath and connected the phone.

"Ci, is the event over?" Ah Chu's tone was the same as usual.

"Well, I'm already home." Ah Ci said, "Where have you been? I called your cell phone just now, and it's not in the service area yet."

"Maybe the signal is not good in the restaurant. I think the weather is good today, so I took Ai Zhong and Aihua to skip class and go to the snack street in the afternoon - I can't keep lying to them, Aihua said that I have a long bag... We are now going Hurry back, we will be home in about ten minutes."

"Did you come back together?" Ah Ci's heart beat faster, expecting an affirmative answer.

"Of course! Are you still afraid that I will lose one?" Ah Chu paused, and then said, "But Aihua seems to prefer to be left on the snack street."

As soon as he finished speaking, Aihua started to defend: "I didn't! Dad is talking nonsense!"

Ah Ci's hanging heart finally let go of half, but it was agreed before that the child will be sent away sooner or later.Thinking of this, he still felt very blocked in his heart, so he said in a rough voice: "Okay, talking on the phone all the time will radiate the brain, let's talk about it when we come back."

"It's not that evil, take it easy." Although Ah Chu comforted his younger brother in this way, he also understood that he couldn't listen at all, so he cooperatively ended the call.

Ah Ci walked slowly to the gate, staring blankly at the end of the road, like a lost child, not knowing where to go.It wasn't until a taxi pulled up to the side of the road that he came back to his senses and saw Ah Chu leading his two sons out of the car, walking towards him hand in hand.The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the father and son, adding a bit of fleeting helplessness to the warm and beautiful atmosphere.At this moment, Ah Ci had an indescribable fear in his heart, fearing that the three close relatives would withdraw from his life with the setting sun, leaving only endless eternal night.

"Uncle! We brought you sugar ears!" Ai Zhong shouted immediately when he saw Ah Ci.

Aihua also said: "There is also pea yellow, and I will give it to you too!"

Ah Chu smiled and let go of the children's hands, and pushed their backs: "Hurry up and send it to uncle. Be careful, don't fall."

After receiving the order, the two children rushed towards Ah Ci in a joyous manner.

Ah Ci bent down and squatted down, hugging the two nephews tightly, reluctant to let go.

"Uncle...the pea yellow is in my schoolbag, it's almost melting, eat it quickly." Aihua reminded him.Obviously, the kid must have been clamoring and unwilling to go home when he was in the snack street, but he was fooled back by his father on the grounds that the pea yellow would melt - in the world of foodies, food is the most important thing to live up to.

Ai Zhong was not as optimistic as his younger brother, he asked worriedly: "Uncle, are you angry that we didn't wait for you to go with us?"

"No, I'm not angry." Ah Ci wanted to press the children into his chest so that no one could separate them again, but unfortunately he couldn't do that.In the next week, I still have to bear the pain of separation again, push my nephews to He Yashu with my own hands, and then help my elder brother to the operating table with my own hands.At that time, Ai Zhong Aihua's residence, Ah Chu's ward, and this empty house were unknown, which one was considered home.He looked up at his elder brother a few meters away, and found that the other party was also looking at him quietly.The phrase "Can't you send the children away?" on the edge of his mouth failed to come out after all.

Ah Ci was caught in a dilemma.He had already made up his mind to put his eldest brother first.But the misunderstanding in the afternoon made him realize that his nephew was two pieces of flesh in his heart, and sending it away was like being gouged out by a living person, leaving a bloody wound that could not heal at all.He wanted to discuss it with Ah Chu several times, but he looked into his elder brother's eyes and couldn't utter a single word.

After returning to the bedroom, it was Ah Chu who spoke first: "I have something to tell you."

"It just so happens that I have something to do, so let me talk about it first!" Ah Ci knew that if he didn't speak out, he would have no chance to fight for it when Ah Chu notified him of the deadline for sending the child away.He lowered his head, avoiding his elder brother's gaze, and said in as natural a tone as possible, "At first I thought you were going to take them to He Yashu today."

"That's what I want to talk about. There's also Yashu who went to the snack street today." Ah Chu rubbed his fingers and explained, "I didn't want to hide it from you, but... because of my problem, she treated you Some misunderstandings. If you go too, the scene may be difficult to control... She has booked a ticket for tonight and may have already left."

"What?" Ah Ci raised his head in surprise and asked, "She left without her love, Zhong Aihua?"

"Yeah. I suddenly changed my mind, so I discussed it with her. This matter is really unreasonable, and it made her go for nothing." Ah Chu shook his head and sighed, "Give the child to someone else, I still Don't worry."

Ah Ci pressed his hand and said excitedly: "You don't need to explain, I understand... Thank you, big brother."

"Thank me for what?" Ah Chu raised his eyebrows, looking puzzled.Then he eased his expression and said, "Now I can only rely on you. Promise me and help me take care of the children and yourself."

"Only during your hospitalization." Ah Ci squeezed his hand vigorously, "After recovery, we will still divide the work and cooperate to take care of the children together."

"Okay." Ah Chu smiled and rumpled Ah Ci's hair, and seeing that his younger brother didn't resist, he leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.

"Sleep!" Aizhong Aihua was worried that the two adults would quarrel over the snack street, so he opened the door and entered much earlier than usual.

Ah Chu hugged Ah Ci and did not let go, gritted his teeth unwillingly, and whispered in his ear: "I want to change my mind again, what should I do?"

"Maybe we can catch up at the airport now." After Ah Ci finished speaking, seeing that his elder brother was about to leave, he hurriedly grabbed him and laughed, "Stop making trouble!"

Ah Chu turned his head and looked at him with raised eyebrows.Ah Ci leaned over and whispered, "Sleep first, and sleep until tomorrow day..."
