My family has a mine [Rebirth]
Chapter 66
When they got home, the first thing they had to face was the anger from Wang Yeping.
If it weren't for the fact that things were heavy and expensive, Wang Yeping could have thrown out the computers in their room.
Even Xu Zheng, who has always been favored by her, was not spared.
How expensive it is to buy a computer these days.
Wang Yeping glanced at the price, her heart was bleeding, and she couldn't stop thinking about it. It's not a necessity, so why are you always wasting money?
Xu Zheng explained to her softly: "When I promised Xu Shi at the beginning, what I said meant what I said."
"What's the point? He's ignorant and you're fooling around with him." Wang Yeping glanced at him with a tyrannical tone.
In order not to let the flames of war spread to Xu Shi, Xu Zheng kept people behind him.
Now the whole thing is done, Wang Yeping scolded and scolded, and the fire was thrown out, but the goods could not be returned, so they had to stay.
"I bought a computer, what if I don't study hard for a while?" Wang Yeping is most worried about this.
Xu Shi on the side was silent, Xu Zheng firmly insisted: "In the next exam, Xu Shi will definitely be in the top ten of the class."
Wang Yeping didn't quite believe it, and asked about the test results: "How much did Xu Shi take this time?"
Xu Zheng was also curious, turned around and asked, "How much?"
Facing the gazes of the two at the same time, Xu Shi bit the bullet and said, "The third from the bottom."
Hearing the answer, Wang Yeping smiled without giving any face. With this smile, the previous tension disappeared a lot, and the anger gradually subsided.
So this matter was gently put down by her: "Top ten in the class, I'm waiting for you."
"Why did you agree to the top ten?" Xu Shi whispered to him at the dinner table, his face full of pain.
The thought of reading a book gave him a headache.
"Can you do it?" Not to mention Xu Shi, Xu Zheng was also worried about him, but Xu Zheng quickly comforted him, "If it doesn't work then, I will help you."
Xu Shi was extremely sensitive to this, and strongly retorted: "I can do it."
If you are a man, you can't say no.
Still quite stubborn.
Xu Zheng gave him a piece of fish head: "Eat more."
Complement the form with the form, supplement the brain with the brain.
I hope Xu Shi will become smarter after eating the fish head.
Xu Shi poked the fish eyes on it with his chopsticks, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.
At night when he was half asleep and half awake, Xu Zheng was still lying on the bed, and heard Xu Shi's sleepy words: "Isn't it just studying?"
Xu Zheng didn't react for a while, and just wanted to ask aloud, Xu Shi immediately said: "But I don't want to learn, alas... I have a headache."
One answer, one answer, smooth and natural, no need for outsiders to participate.
The tone of mourning was very strong, if Xu Shi was awake, he would definitely have a bitter face.
Xu Shi never forgot about it even in his dreams, which shows how much impact it had on him.
In the dark night, Xu Zheng unconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth.
Bitter and funny.
The next day, Wang Yeping said in the morning that he couldn't come back because of something at noon, and Xu Jingyan was also in the unit, so Xu Zheng led Xu Shi to go out for a casual meal.
It was only nine o'clock, and Xu Zheng in the living room saw Xu Shi running out with a doll in his arms. He didn't stop until he saw Xu Zheng, rubbed his eyes to make sure it was correct, and then went back to the bathroom to wash up.
Ten minutes later, Xu Shi, who was fully dressed, sat next to him.
Xu Zheng asked with interest: "Why did you get up so early today?"
In normal times, Xu Shi could sleep until noon.
"I had a nightmare." Xu Shi's complexion was not very good, his face was even more pale than before.
Xu Zhengyong gestured with his eyes to wait for him to continue.
But Xu Shi didn't want to open his mouth to mention it again, he opened his right hand to cover his face.
The horrible things in the dream happened one after another. First, he dreamed that his brother disappeared when he woke up, and then he was locked in a chair, with nine textbooks in front of him, and he read them one by one.
Xu Zheng will never come back if he doesn't finish his studies.
It scared Xu Shi half to death.
He hurried out to take a look, fortunately, Xu Zheng was still there.
The two of them waited until ten o'clock to leave the door. Xu Shi wore a blue sweater. The two ropes on the chest were one long and the other short.
Xu Zheng endured and endured, so he didn't put the hat on for him.
Xu Shi's height was half a head shorter than him, and Xu Zheng's hand rested on his shoulder just right.
The hand inadvertently rubbed against the skin of Xu Shi's neck, it was soft and tender, and still warm.
Not cold on the line.
This was Xu Zheng's first thought.
On weekends, students in school uniforms can often be seen wandering the streets, carrying a schoolbag, and the blue and white school uniforms are also eye-catching.
In fact, not only on weekends, but also on weekdays.
Xu Zheng couldn't help but think of Xu Shi beside him, perhaps Xu Shi was also one of them.
Xu Shi didn't notice Xu Zheng's eyes, staring at the street vendor in a daze.
It turned out to be someone who bought candied haws.
"Want to eat?" Xu Zheng saw the longing in Xu Shi's eyes.
Xu Shi didn't answer, but subconsciously licked the corners of his mouth, Xu Zheng knew that this was an affirmative answer.
If Wang Yeping were here, he would definitely say, "It's almost time to eat, what kind of candied haws are we eating?"
Xu Zheng didn't care about that, and walked over to buy it for Xu Shi.
These days, the small strings of candied haws are five cents, and the big ones don’t have as many tricks as later generations, but you can taste the taste of happiness with one bite.
Xu Zheng came back with two bunches of candied haws, and saw a middle-aged man standing beside Xu Shi.
He was neatly dressed, looked about 40 or [-] years old, and wore a pair of glasses. At this age, he could be regarded as personable and elegant. He looked at Xu Shi with both eyes: "Hello, how can I get to Wenzhao Street?"
I don't know why, the first time he saw that man, Xu Zheng subconsciously felt a sense of crisis. He couldn't tell where it was, but he always felt that something was weird.
Xu Zheng returned to Xu Shi's side, separated the two of them indiscriminately, and took the initiative to answer: "Wenzhao Street, turn right ahead and take the No. [-] bus to the Civic Center."
The middle-aged man was taken aback, turned his gaze to Xu Zheng, and smiled: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Xu Zheng also responded politely.
Xu Zheng waited for him to leave. Before leaving, the middle-aged man did not forget to take a last look at Xu Shi.
It's a pity that Xu Shi didn't find it from beginning to end.
Xu Shizao took the candied haws from Xu Zheng's hand at the first time, tore off the plastic film, and took a bite.
The sugar coating was bitten into pieces by Xu Shi, and the sound of crackling was mixed with the hawthorn pulp and swallowed together.
Xu Zheng tried to bite one, and the hawthorn in it was so sour that his teeth almost fell out. He didn't understand why Xu Shi thought this food was delicious?
"Don't give it to me." Xu Shi snatched half a bunch of candied haws from Xu Zheng's hand, squinting his eyes to enjoy the double happiness.
The end result of eating too much candied haws is that Xu Shi can only eat half a bowl of rice at noon, and the rice is unlimited. In the past, when Xu Shi came to this store to eat two bowls of rice, he was not full, but now he has fallen to this point.
While rubbing his bulging stomach, Xu Shi joked with him: "I'm so supportive, if Mom is here, she will definitely scold me for not eating well."
"It's not just you, even I scolded you." Xu Zheng said.
He bought the snacks indulgently, so Wang Yeping scolded him too.
Xu Shi hugged his hand flatteringly: "So I still like to come out with you."
That is to say, Xu Zheng can indulge him unconditionally.
Xu Zheng knew it was not good.
But he couldn't help it.
Since Xu Shi is happy, occasionally a meal is not good if it is not good.
As soon as Xu Zheng turned his head, he vaguely saw a figure, wearing a coat to hide it, and bowed his head.
Xu Zheng recognized the man with his extraordinary memory.
Isn't he the one who came to Xu Shi to ask the way?
What does he want to do?
track them?
Xu Zheng didn't mention anything to Xu Shi, and led him around several streets, finally throwing off the man who was following them.
Xu Shi followed him closely, eating and drinking all the way, looking heartless.
Xu Zheng couldn't help worrying: "Be careful when you go to school recently."
If that person can keep up with them, there's no guarantee that he's coming for them. It's okay to come for him. He will have to return to Huashu in a few days. I'm afraid that person's goal is Xu Shi. If he follows Xu Shi How to go to school.
"Understood." Xu Shi thought that Xu Zheng was warning him to be quiet when going to school, and not to be late and leave early like before.
Xu Zheng thought: "Why don't you stay at home for a while first."
Xu Shi looked at him as if he had seen a ghost, and then said clearly: "Brother, you are testing me, aren't you? I won't be fooled."
Xu Shigang promised in front of Xu Zheng that he would be in the top ten of the class in the next exam, and Xu Zheng threw such a big bait in front of him.
Sinister intentions.
Xu Zheng opened his mouth, unable to argue.
this fool.
Facts have proved that Xu Zheng's intuition is really accurate.
In the evening, the man stood guard at the door of their house, pacing back and forth.
From the discovery of being followed to the official meeting, the difference was only a few hours.
Even Xu Shi noticed something was wrong, and tugged on Xu Zheng's sleeve: "Isn't that the person who asked us for directions during the day? Could it be that he came to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes? It shouldn't be, and I didn't point the wrong way..."
Xu Zheng clasped Xu Shi's shoulder to reassure him.
He walked up to the man and said vigilantly, "Hello, what can I do?"
The middle-aged man didn't care if he was hostile, he stretched out his hand: "Get to know me, my name is Cheng Li, your parents haven't come back yet?"
Looking for his parents?
Not long after Xu Zheng took his hand, he heard Xu Jingyan's voice: "President Cheng?"
Xu Jingyan had just returned home from get off work, and he was full of travel and dust. In contrast to the well-dressed routine, the former were ordinary people buried in the crowd, while the latter was a high-ranking decision-making class.
Cheng Li pushed his glasses and smiled politely at Xu Jingyan: "Jingyan."
Xu Jingyan was gentle with others, he was seldom impatient with others, and he was a little too cautious in the face of conventions. He took out the key in his bag and opened the door: "Go in and sit down."
Although Xu's house is not big, it is neat and tidy, and every corner is filled with the atmosphere of life.
The walls were covered with certificates of awards that Xu Zheng and Xu Shi had received, most of which belonged to Xu Zheng. Xu Shi's only one was hung in the middle, and there was a special photo frame for it.
The best student in the class, even Xu Shi himself doesn't necessarily remember when he got it.
Boxes piled up next to the TV, old clothes, temporarily unused fans and pots, and toys from their childhood.
The toys at home were all played by Xu Zheng when he was a child, and Xu Shi continued to play. Xu Zheng still remembers that once Xu Shi pushed down all the building blocks that had just been placed, and asked for a long time in his heart, "When will I stop playing with my brother's old toys?" Toy?"
Wang Yeping, who came over after hearing the sound, said displeasedly: "You child, aren't the toys all the same? You play for a while and stop playing. It's a waste to buy new ones."
"It's different." The young Xu Shi argued with her.
"You still pick some things to play with, you're used to it. These things don't lack arms or legs, how is it different?" Wang Yeping turned back to the kitchen to cook, "I warn you, no matter how noisy you are, you won't even be allowed to play with these things. "
The new and the old are just different.
Xu Shi stood aside aggrievedly, biting his lip and did not dare to make another sound.
After Xu Zheng observed the whole process, he ran to Xu Shi's ear and whispered a few words, and the sad Xu Shi was healed quickly.
What he said was, "It's okay, Mom won't buy it for you, brother will buy it for you, and tomorrow we will buy it with red envelopes."
Wang Yeping confiscated their red envelopes, and also wanted them to exercise their financial management skills since childhood.
The next day, Xu Zheng took Xu Shi and went straight to the mall, spent all his money, bought a toy car and came back.
After Wang Yeping found out, their annual red envelopes no longer belonged to her.
In her words: Little bastard, spend money as soon as you have it, and mom will save it for you.
Even so, that car was promoted to Xu Shi's new favorite, and he took it everywhere, and once a rear wheel was knocked off, Xu Shi was still sad about it for a long time.
Cheng Ji looked around every corner of Xu's house with almost greedy eyes, and finally stopped at the family portrait on the cabinet, a family of four, Xu Shi and Xu Zheng were wearing the same clothes, smiling contentedly.
Wang Yeping also returned home at this time, and when she saw Cheng Li, she froze for a moment, and said in a stiff tone, "Why are you here?"
"Come, drink tea." Xu Jingyan put the freshly brewed tea in front of Cheng Li.
The next second, Xu Zheng and Xu Shi, who were stuck in the living room, were expelled by Wang Yeping: "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Why don't you go back to do your homework."
Wang Yeping is very irritable today.
Xu Shi shivered from fright, and the two went back to the house obediently.
When Xu Zheng closed the door, he didn't forget to glance at the living room. Wang Yeping was standing by the sofa, with an arrogant and defensive attitude. Before they left, the atmosphere was still very stalemate.
After being driven back, Xu Shi was extremely curious, and discussed with Xu Zheng: "Who is that person in the living room?"
"I don't know." Xu Zheng was also helpless.
Uninvited guests who frequently meet in a day come to their home, and anyone will be aroused countless curiosity.
But neither he nor Xu Shi knew what that man was here for.
Xu Shi lay on the door and hooked his fingers towards Xu Zheng: "Come here, let's listen together."
The door was closed, but the sound could penetrate the gap.
Like him, Xu Zheng put his ear to the door and carefully identified what the people in the living room were saying.
Before hearing the sound, Xu Zheng pressed Xu Shi's hair with his hand, and it was fluffy piled up on his chin, a little itchy.
Such a posture is tantamount to Xu Zheng holding Xu Shi in his arms.
In the living room, Xu Jingyan spoke first to break the atmosphere, and patted the sofa next to him: "Yeping, come and sit."
Wang Yeping sat down reluctantly.
Cheng Li still held his breath and sipped his tea quietly.
After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Li said, "I came here this time to bring back Xu Shi."
"Hey, listen to this, how shameless." Wang Yeping's disdain was written on his face and in his voice.
Wang Yeping asked, "Did you control his life back then?"
As a rule, neither arrogance nor rashness: "In any case, blood is thicker than water. I admit that what I did was wrong at the beginning, and now I am here to make up for him."
"You don't show up, that's the best compensation for him." Wang Yeping replied.
"All of this has to be decided by Xu Shi himself." Xu Jingyan, who had been silent for a long time, came to a conclusion.
The sound insulation of Xu's house is not good, even though the sound is much quieter, Xu Zheng can hear every word that should be heard.
The one in the living room is Xu Shi's biological father?
Xu Zheng's first reaction was to look at Xu Shi's expression. Xu Shi was not as shocked as he thought, but was too calm, and even let out a sneer.
"You know?" Xu Zheng asked doubtfully.
Xu Shi turned around and left, knowing the real identity of that person, he was no longer interested in listening.
Only Xu Zheng was left in a daze, unable to react for a long time.
Isn't Xu Shi his brother?
how can that be possible.
The glutinous rice dumpling who followed him since he was a child, the first word he yelled was his brother's Xu Shi, how could it not be his brother?
Even if it was rebirth, Xu Zheng didn't react much.
As soon as this fact came out, it was like a thunderbolt passing through his body, and he was completely stunned.
Xu Zheng grew up watching Xu Shi.
When I was young, I was busy at home, and my parents had to go to work. Xu Shi was brought up by him little by little.
With this younger brother, even though Xu Zheng disliked him on the lips, he loved Xu Shi very much in his heart. He regarded Xu Shi as the most precious large toy, and the joy of raising cats and dogs was simply not comparable.
Xu Shi has been obedient since he was a child, neither crying nor making troubles. He eats and sleeps when he is full during the day. Xu Zheng teases him, and Xu Shi also holds his fingers with a smile.
Later, when he grew up, Xu Shi turned into Xu Zheng's little follower, wherever Xu Zheng went, Xu Shi followed him.
There are gains and losses, because he brought a child, and he couldn't play with his peers, Xu Zheng would get annoyed occasionally, and secretly left Xu Shi and ran out by himself.
In order to prevent Xu Shi from running around, the door was locked from the outside, and Xu Shi couldn't open it at home.
When Xu Zheng came back from the outside after having had enough fun, he faced Xu Shi who had been crying for a day and almost died. His eyes were red and swollen, and the doll he held in his hand was already wet from crying.
At that time, Xu Zheng wanted to slap himself. The poor Xu Shi made him realize how stupid he was.
From then on, Xu Zheng seldom went out, and basically stayed at home with Xu Shi.
Xu Shi also clings to him even closer, often asking: "Brother, will you go?"
Xu Zheng shook his head: "No."
Xu Shi still looked aggrieved: "Brother, don't abandon me."
"You are so annoying." Xu Zheng said distressedly.
Seeing that Xu Shi was about to cry, Xu Zheng immediately changed his words: "Don't bother, don't bother, oh, don't cry."
Xu Shi's reliance on him is stronger than anyone in the family.
When Xu Shi was a child, he almost followed Xu Zheng blindly.
What Xu Zheng said, what did he believe.
There is even a passage that goes astray.
Children are sensitive, Xu Shi has noticed that Wang Yeping doesn't like him very much since he was a child.
Wang Yeping likes Xu Zheng better.
Xu Shi was very sad at the time, and asked Xu Zheng privately, if his parents didn't like him, did he do something wrong?
Xu Zheng couldn't answer why, so he squeezed his arm and replied: "You are too thin, you look like a monkey, your parents will like you when you get fatter."
Xu Zheng looks tall and big, but Xu Shi looks thin and small.
Then Xu Shi started to eat all the time, wanting to do what Xu Zheng said, to eat a little fatter, so that my parents would like it.
Wang Yeping often called him a pig at the dinner table. She was typical of hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, and she rolled her eyes to the sky and didn't stop Xu Shi from eating.
As he ate and ate, Xu Shi fell in love with the pleasure of overeating. When he was in a bad mood, he ate desperately. As long as his stomach was full, the sadness in his heart could be relieved.
During that time, Xu Shi's weight swelled rapidly, he was as fat as a ball, and he had a double chin, which made Xu Shi even more unpopular with his parents.
Xu Zheng regretted it, so he treated Xu Shi even better.
Xu Shi was always chubby in elementary school, and gradually lost weight until he grew taller in junior high school.
Out of guilt, Xu Zheng turned into a pet brother madman, he saved his pocket money to buy food for Xu Shi, forced him to go for a run with snacks, and ran around to get some food.
So although Xu Shi is fat, he is also healthy.
In elementary school, if anyone bullied Xu Shi, Xu Zheng would definitely take revenge for Xu. Gradually, everyone knew that Xu Shi had an older brother who was not easy to mess with.
Xu Shi didn't like to talk before, so Xu Zheng tried every means to enlighten him, let him tell himself what happened, Xu Shi obeyed his words, and finally made Xu Shi develop the attribute of chatterbox.
Xu Zheng regretted this point more than once.
It can be said that in the Xu family, the whole family favored Xu Zheng, and Xu Zheng favored Xu Shi.
For Xu Zheng, Xu Shi has become a part of his life and is indispensable.
When pampering becomes a habit, it is not so easy to quit.
In his previous life, Xu Zheng spent his entire life in abstinence, but he was unsuccessful.
I don't intend to give up in this world.
Unexpectedly, Xu Shi was not his younger brother.
When Xu Zheng wanted to hit someone countless times, he used this excuse to persuade himself: my brother, dear, dear, bear with it.
As a result, the reason is not valid now?
Xu Shi quietly sat aside, with a mocking expression on his face revealing sadness.
"When did you know?"
Xu Shi looked up at him and recalled, "In the first year of junior high school."
Because it is not his own, there are many things that Xu Shi does not want to tell his family, including Xu Zheng.
Later, he regretted it, and firmly grasped Xu Zheng's last straw.
Without Xu Zheng, no one will treat him as a real family member.
Well now, even Xu Zheng, his only relative in this world, knows the truth.
For so many years, his brother loved a stranger.
Xu Shizao knew the truth, but because of selfishness, he refused to tell his brother, would his brother hate him...
Xu Zheng has never seen Xu Shi like this.
It's like losing your soul, like losing the whole world.
When he first came back, Xu Shi was very skinny, his mouth was so broken that people wanted to beat him, even if he was skinny, he was undoubtedly happy.
At this moment, Xu Shi's whole body was enveloped by a gloomy atmosphere, which could not be dissipated intensely, as if he was living in the shadows.
Xu Zheng's heart throbbed with pain.
It shouldn't be like this. He has spoiled his younger brother for so many years, and now he is so sad.
Xu Zheng hugged him without thinking, and comforted him with actions.
"What are you thinking? I've watched you for so many years, even if I'm not close to you, I will always be your brother." Xu Zheng's voice was firm.
Xu Zheng couldn't help but blame himself.
What was he thinking about?
The saddest thing right now should be Xu Shi.
Even if he knew that Xu Shi was not his real brother, could he put him down?
cannot.Xu Zheng's answer in his heart couldn't be more certain.
That being the case, his concern for Xu Shi will never change.
Xu Zheng's words hit the last line of defense in Xu Shi's heart.
Xu Shi couldn't bear it anymore, closed his eyes, tears poured out, and hugged Xu Zheng instead.
I don't know why, he was so sad.
Xu Zheng promised that he would always be his brother.
But this only made Xu Shi's heart aggravated.
That's not all he wanted.
"I don't want you to be my brother." Xu Shi made up his mind.
Before he finished the second sentence, Xu Zheng made a final decision: "If you don't want it, you have to."
Yes, Xu Shi was even more sad.
The two brothers hugged each other and cried in the room, and the confrontation in the living room continued.
Wang Yeping will never forget how much trouble has been caused to their family because of Xu Shi's arrival. Now that they are raised and want to leave, there is no door.
"Let me tell you, Xu Shi won't go with you, I advise you to give up that heart as soon as possible." Wang Yeping said viciously.
Cheng Shi is full of self-confidence in himself: "You already have a son, one is your own, and the other is forced to adopt, it will be biased no matter what."
"You still have the face to say it?" Wang Yeping mocked.
When Xu Shi arrived at their home, she was strongly opposed by Wang Yeping at first.
It all starts with the acquaintance between Wang Yeping and Xu Jingyan. What happened between them can almost compose a love story in the countryside in the 70s.
Wang Yeping, a typical rural woman, is the flower of Baxi Village. She is beautiful and has a pungent personality. The guys in the village don't like any of them except Xu Jingyan who is going to the countryside.
Xu Jingyan was gentle and gentle, with a temperament she had never seen before, so Wang Yeping often helped Xu Jingyan with work. The educated youth lived in poverty, and the wealthy family sent things every now and then. If the conditions were average, they had to carry them.
Wang Yeping took advantage of this to ask Xu Jingyan to go to her house for dinner. After going back and forth, the two fell in love with each other and got married.
After three years of marriage, policy reforms gave educated youths who had been sent to the countryside a chance to return to the city. Now it is divorced and returned to the city.
Xu Jingyan didn't intend to leave her, but Xu Jingyan's parents kept urging him to go back to the city. Fortunately, Wang Yeping was pregnant with Xu Zheng at this time. In order to bring her back to the city, Xu Jingyan's family found someone to change jobs. Became a hundred and two factory workers.
After Wang Yeping returned to the city with Xu Jingyan, she thought she would live a good life, but Xu Jingyan's parents were very picky about her, disliked that she was from the countryside, and she was not as good as Bai Qing.
Under pressure, Wang Yeping learned of Bai Qing's identity from Xu Jingyan's mouth. Bai Qing is the eldest daughter of a capitalist with a bad background. People will be divided.
Xu Jingyan's parents have long regarded Bai Qing as a future daughter-in-law. Bai Qing is knowledgeable, reasonable, gentle and generous, which is no match for a village girl like Wang Yeping.
During this period, Bai Qing also never got married, and only after Xu Jingyan came back did she start blind dates, marrying a rich second generation became a common practice.
Cheng Li is used to being playful, they were married less than two years, Cheng Li frequently cheated, the vixen succeeded in taking the position and squeezed out Bai Qing, after the divorce, Bai Qing found out that she was pregnant and decided to secretly give birth to the child.
On the day of giving birth, Bai Qing died of dystocia, and the child survived, and this child was Xu Shi.
Bai Qing is an orphan girl who has been taken care of by Xu Jingyan's parents for many years. After Bai Qing died, Xu Jingyan adopted Xu Shi despite Wang Yeping's objection.
Wang Yeping refused to die at first, throwing pots and making a fuss, but Xu Jingyan, who has always been mild-tempered, became hardened once in a while, and Xu Shi became their child just like that.
For this reason, Wang Yeping also pretended to go back to the countryside and brought Xu Shi back, pretending that she was born by herself.
At that time, family planning had already been implemented, and Xu Shi's family had paid tens of thousands of fines. Wang Yeping disliked Xu Shi even more. After getting along for a long time, she gradually treated Xu Shi as her own.
Xu Shi's personality is different from Xu Zheng's. Xu Zheng is mature and stable, while Xu Shi is mischievous and troublesome. Regardless of whether he is a biological element, as long as he is a normal person, he will like Xu Zheng.
In the beginning, Wang Yeping didn't care much about Xu Shi, it was all brought by Xu Zheng. After a long time, she slowly realized that Xu Shi was born without knowing anything, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Wang Yeping really regarded Xu Shi as her own son, so she kept scolding him.
After all, Xu Shi's mouth, sometimes Wang Yeping would like to sew it up with a needle.
Cheng Li got the news from Xu Shi from nowhere, and came back to have a baby, Wang Yeping naturally wouldn't let him succeed.
"It's a big financial burden for you to raise two children, right? I will compensate you, as long as Xu Shi can go back with me, you can tell me how much it will cost." Cheng Shi said condescendingly.
He believes that there is nothing in this world that money cannot solve.
"Get lost." It was unbelievable that Xu Jingyan, who had always been a boring gourd, would speak first.
Xu Jingyan has a good temper, but it doesn't mean he is a noodle guy who can be rubbed by others: "I called you Cheng Zong because you are my superior, but it doesn't mean you can be so unscrupulous in my house. Please get out now, our family doesn't Welcome."
Being rejected by someone pointing his nose face to face, Cheng Li couldn't hold back: "Don't regret it."
"What do you think I came to you in the first place? Don't you just want you to persuade Xu Shi well? Don't you want to toast and eat fine wine? Wait for me." Cheng Li threw the teacup in his hand heavily When he reached the table, the overflowing hot tea scalded the back of his hand red, causing him to withdraw his hand quickly.
Wang Yeping got up and chased them away: "Wait, wait for me to drive you away with a broom, right? Get out of here quickly."
Cheng Shi came out of Xu's house disheartened. He originally wanted to adopt the mildest solution, but the couple didn't know what to do.
The quarrel in the living room was so loud that Xu Zheng could hear it clearly in the room.
It was the first time he saw Wang Yeping get so angry.
Xu Zheng gently wiped away the tears on Xu Shi's face, and said to him: "Not only me, but parents also love you."
The love of parents is sometimes not obvious, but when conflicts really break out, the guns are always on the outside.
For dinner, the Xu family's first showdown in so many years.
Wang Yeping said domineeringly: "Don't worry, little bastard, although you were not born from my stomach, except for this, in my opinion, you are the same as your own."
Xu Jingyan's eyes were gentle: "Me too."
Xu Shi blushed a little, he had always been inferior to this point before, but now he put the words on the surface, which made him a little at a loss.
Wang Yeping then added: "And your brother, you see, your brother loves you so much since you were young, you can't be a little white-eyed wolf."
"I know." Xu Shi pursed his lips, he was always aware of this.
"Eat, eat." Xu Jingyan put a chicken leg in Xu Shi's bowl.
Wang Yeping picked up a chicken wing: "Eat more, you look thinner."
High school is the time for boys to grow taller. Xu Shi's height is quietly growing, and he looks thinner than before.
Xu Shi was overwhelmed by the multi-faceted care for a while, and dared not speak while gnawing on the chicken legs in the bowl.
It's rare to talk so little during a meal.
"You kid, don't you want to be the rich second generation?" Wang Yeping asked unexpectedly.
Xu Shi didn't swallow a mouthful of food and choked, Xu Zheng put down the chopsticks in his hand and patted him on the back: "Mom, what are you talking about while eating?"
Wang Yeping felt a little guilty: "I won't be right."
"It's not easy to be a rich second generation. I was with me when I was young." Xu Zheng had a smile in his eyes, "I will definitely be richer than that in the future."
The name Cheng Li had never been heard of after Xu Zheng made his fortune, and after thinking about it, he didn't get along very well.
Xu Shi clenched the chopsticks in his hand, not intending to get into their discussion.
What happened to these people today?
One by one, not normal.
In 16 years, it was the first time Xu Shi had been so relaxed.
A stone that was pressing in his heart was broken, so that he no longer had to worry about it.
Xu Shi looked at Xu Zheng with joy in his eyes: "Brother, brother."
"Hey." Xu Zheng answered him.
"I like you so much." Xu Shi said.
"Me too." Xu Zheng sat on the edge of the bed and opened his arms to him, "Sleep together?"
"Okay." Xu Shi's ending voice couldn't restrain its rise.
Xu Zheng had a dream tonight.
The dream is a scene from a previous life.
He was not at home in the previous life, Xu Shi had a tense relationship with his parents and family, and Wang Yeping was a straightforward person, sometimes he could not control his mouth and always complained.
Xu Jingyan insisted on wandering outside for several hours after get off work, and Xu Shi at home became the object of her venting.
As time passed, Xu Shi became more and more silent. When he got home, he locked himself in a small room and didn't come out easily.
At this time, Cheng Li appeared beside him.
The premeditated approach gave him a long-lost warmth.
Even when Cheng Li found him later, Xu Shi didn't reject him when he found out his identity.
There is a way to make a case. He first laid off Xu Jingyan and Wang Yeping successively. The Xu family's expenses became more and more tense. The poor and lowly couples were sad, and the family quarreled constantly every day. The only topic was worrying about money.
Xu Shi offered to go with Cheng Li, and the request was to give enough money to Xu's parents.
For this reason, the relationship between Xu Shi and his parents dropped to a freezing point.
Later, Xu Zheng woke up.
After waking up, it was Xu Shi who was sleeping beside him, Xu Shi grabbed his hand and held him tightly in his arms.
Xu Zheng looked at Xu Shi's side face and swore secretly:
With him here, the things in the dream will never happen again.
The usual means of retaliation came quickly and fiercely. This morning, Xu Jingyan was fired by his unit.
This result Xu Jingyan had already expected, as it was his boss, it was only a matter of one sentence to fire him, Xu Jingyan accepted it calmly.
Xu Jingyan, who was laid off at home, bought a parrot from the flower and bird market. It has green feathers and looks stupid. Xu Jingyan is teaching it to talk.
Every day I go out to walk around the birds and play chess, and my life is still carefree.
Wang Yeping resigned from the cafeteria work early, which did not affect her.
Rectifying one Xu Jingyan was not enough, as a rule, he stretched his hand even longer and focused on Xu Zheng's company.
Xu Zheng received a call in the afternoon. The freight company they had cooperated with was going to break the contract, and the coal could not be delivered.
Xu Zheng stabilized the other party's emotions: "No hurry, how much stock is there?"
"There are less than 50 tons left." The person in charge wailed repeatedly. Once the company's supply of goods cannot keep up, their reputation will be greatly damaged, and the loss will be a large amount of orders.
"Reduce orders these days, and I'll figure out the rest." Xu Zheng hung up the phone after finishing speaking.
become an example.
He memorized the name.
The transportation line from Guanle to Qianfeng has always been smooth and stable. Every three days, there will be a convoy pulling coal from the mine and transporting it to the factory.
The truck company that signed the agreement with them used to have a good cooperation, but now they want to break the contract at high liquidated damages. I think it is a common practice.
Xu Zheng first called You Zhi and asked him if there was any car available.
You Zhi said that he was helpless: "I asked, as long as I heard that it was the route to Qianfeng, no one dared to take it, did you offend someone? How about this, I still have a truck in my hand, you use it first? Don't run out of stock."
You Zhi's truck weighs [-] tons, and it takes one day to go back and forth from Guanle to Qianfeng, and the [-] tons is far from enough.
"Forget it, let me think about it again." Xu Zheng rejected his proposal, and admitted, "Yeah, I offended the villain, why, are you afraid?"
"Joke, who am I? Even if you offend the Heavenly King, I'm not afraid." You Zhi expressed his attitude positively.
Ever since Xu Zheng went to the mine last time, in You Zhi's heart, the two of them were life-and-death friendship.
As long as he can help, he is obliged.
You Zhi lowered his voice to comfort him: "Don't be discouraged, if there is nothing wrong, I'll ask my dad."
When You Zhi came out, he once let go of his father's harsh words: I can make a fortune without relying on you.
You Guanghong was also annoyed by him: Even if you beg me to help you, I will not help you.
A man's face is very important.
But for the sake of Xu Zheng, You Zhi can still lose face for a while.
Xu Zheng ran outside for a day, but still failed.
It's getting dark
If it weren't for the fact that things were heavy and expensive, Wang Yeping could have thrown out the computers in their room.
Even Xu Zheng, who has always been favored by her, was not spared.
How expensive it is to buy a computer these days.
Wang Yeping glanced at the price, her heart was bleeding, and she couldn't stop thinking about it. It's not a necessity, so why are you always wasting money?
Xu Zheng explained to her softly: "When I promised Xu Shi at the beginning, what I said meant what I said."
"What's the point? He's ignorant and you're fooling around with him." Wang Yeping glanced at him with a tyrannical tone.
In order not to let the flames of war spread to Xu Shi, Xu Zheng kept people behind him.
Now the whole thing is done, Wang Yeping scolded and scolded, and the fire was thrown out, but the goods could not be returned, so they had to stay.
"I bought a computer, what if I don't study hard for a while?" Wang Yeping is most worried about this.
Xu Shi on the side was silent, Xu Zheng firmly insisted: "In the next exam, Xu Shi will definitely be in the top ten of the class."
Wang Yeping didn't quite believe it, and asked about the test results: "How much did Xu Shi take this time?"
Xu Zheng was also curious, turned around and asked, "How much?"
Facing the gazes of the two at the same time, Xu Shi bit the bullet and said, "The third from the bottom."
Hearing the answer, Wang Yeping smiled without giving any face. With this smile, the previous tension disappeared a lot, and the anger gradually subsided.
So this matter was gently put down by her: "Top ten in the class, I'm waiting for you."
"Why did you agree to the top ten?" Xu Shi whispered to him at the dinner table, his face full of pain.
The thought of reading a book gave him a headache.
"Can you do it?" Not to mention Xu Shi, Xu Zheng was also worried about him, but Xu Zheng quickly comforted him, "If it doesn't work then, I will help you."
Xu Shi was extremely sensitive to this, and strongly retorted: "I can do it."
If you are a man, you can't say no.
Still quite stubborn.
Xu Zheng gave him a piece of fish head: "Eat more."
Complement the form with the form, supplement the brain with the brain.
I hope Xu Shi will become smarter after eating the fish head.
Xu Shi poked the fish eyes on it with his chopsticks, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.
At night when he was half asleep and half awake, Xu Zheng was still lying on the bed, and heard Xu Shi's sleepy words: "Isn't it just studying?"
Xu Zheng didn't react for a while, and just wanted to ask aloud, Xu Shi immediately said: "But I don't want to learn, alas... I have a headache."
One answer, one answer, smooth and natural, no need for outsiders to participate.
The tone of mourning was very strong, if Xu Shi was awake, he would definitely have a bitter face.
Xu Shi never forgot about it even in his dreams, which shows how much impact it had on him.
In the dark night, Xu Zheng unconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth.
Bitter and funny.
The next day, Wang Yeping said in the morning that he couldn't come back because of something at noon, and Xu Jingyan was also in the unit, so Xu Zheng led Xu Shi to go out for a casual meal.
It was only nine o'clock, and Xu Zheng in the living room saw Xu Shi running out with a doll in his arms. He didn't stop until he saw Xu Zheng, rubbed his eyes to make sure it was correct, and then went back to the bathroom to wash up.
Ten minutes later, Xu Shi, who was fully dressed, sat next to him.
Xu Zheng asked with interest: "Why did you get up so early today?"
In normal times, Xu Shi could sleep until noon.
"I had a nightmare." Xu Shi's complexion was not very good, his face was even more pale than before.
Xu Zhengyong gestured with his eyes to wait for him to continue.
But Xu Shi didn't want to open his mouth to mention it again, he opened his right hand to cover his face.
The horrible things in the dream happened one after another. First, he dreamed that his brother disappeared when he woke up, and then he was locked in a chair, with nine textbooks in front of him, and he read them one by one.
Xu Zheng will never come back if he doesn't finish his studies.
It scared Xu Shi half to death.
He hurried out to take a look, fortunately, Xu Zheng was still there.
The two of them waited until ten o'clock to leave the door. Xu Shi wore a blue sweater. The two ropes on the chest were one long and the other short.
Xu Zheng endured and endured, so he didn't put the hat on for him.
Xu Shi's height was half a head shorter than him, and Xu Zheng's hand rested on his shoulder just right.
The hand inadvertently rubbed against the skin of Xu Shi's neck, it was soft and tender, and still warm.
Not cold on the line.
This was Xu Zheng's first thought.
On weekends, students in school uniforms can often be seen wandering the streets, carrying a schoolbag, and the blue and white school uniforms are also eye-catching.
In fact, not only on weekends, but also on weekdays.
Xu Zheng couldn't help but think of Xu Shi beside him, perhaps Xu Shi was also one of them.
Xu Shi didn't notice Xu Zheng's eyes, staring at the street vendor in a daze.
It turned out to be someone who bought candied haws.
"Want to eat?" Xu Zheng saw the longing in Xu Shi's eyes.
Xu Shi didn't answer, but subconsciously licked the corners of his mouth, Xu Zheng knew that this was an affirmative answer.
If Wang Yeping were here, he would definitely say, "It's almost time to eat, what kind of candied haws are we eating?"
Xu Zheng didn't care about that, and walked over to buy it for Xu Shi.
These days, the small strings of candied haws are five cents, and the big ones don’t have as many tricks as later generations, but you can taste the taste of happiness with one bite.
Xu Zheng came back with two bunches of candied haws, and saw a middle-aged man standing beside Xu Shi.
He was neatly dressed, looked about 40 or [-] years old, and wore a pair of glasses. At this age, he could be regarded as personable and elegant. He looked at Xu Shi with both eyes: "Hello, how can I get to Wenzhao Street?"
I don't know why, the first time he saw that man, Xu Zheng subconsciously felt a sense of crisis. He couldn't tell where it was, but he always felt that something was weird.
Xu Zheng returned to Xu Shi's side, separated the two of them indiscriminately, and took the initiative to answer: "Wenzhao Street, turn right ahead and take the No. [-] bus to the Civic Center."
The middle-aged man was taken aback, turned his gaze to Xu Zheng, and smiled: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Xu Zheng also responded politely.
Xu Zheng waited for him to leave. Before leaving, the middle-aged man did not forget to take a last look at Xu Shi.
It's a pity that Xu Shi didn't find it from beginning to end.
Xu Shizao took the candied haws from Xu Zheng's hand at the first time, tore off the plastic film, and took a bite.
The sugar coating was bitten into pieces by Xu Shi, and the sound of crackling was mixed with the hawthorn pulp and swallowed together.
Xu Zheng tried to bite one, and the hawthorn in it was so sour that his teeth almost fell out. He didn't understand why Xu Shi thought this food was delicious?
"Don't give it to me." Xu Shi snatched half a bunch of candied haws from Xu Zheng's hand, squinting his eyes to enjoy the double happiness.
The end result of eating too much candied haws is that Xu Shi can only eat half a bowl of rice at noon, and the rice is unlimited. In the past, when Xu Shi came to this store to eat two bowls of rice, he was not full, but now he has fallen to this point.
While rubbing his bulging stomach, Xu Shi joked with him: "I'm so supportive, if Mom is here, she will definitely scold me for not eating well."
"It's not just you, even I scolded you." Xu Zheng said.
He bought the snacks indulgently, so Wang Yeping scolded him too.
Xu Shi hugged his hand flatteringly: "So I still like to come out with you."
That is to say, Xu Zheng can indulge him unconditionally.
Xu Zheng knew it was not good.
But he couldn't help it.
Since Xu Shi is happy, occasionally a meal is not good if it is not good.
As soon as Xu Zheng turned his head, he vaguely saw a figure, wearing a coat to hide it, and bowed his head.
Xu Zheng recognized the man with his extraordinary memory.
Isn't he the one who came to Xu Shi to ask the way?
What does he want to do?
track them?
Xu Zheng didn't mention anything to Xu Shi, and led him around several streets, finally throwing off the man who was following them.
Xu Shi followed him closely, eating and drinking all the way, looking heartless.
Xu Zheng couldn't help worrying: "Be careful when you go to school recently."
If that person can keep up with them, there's no guarantee that he's coming for them. It's okay to come for him. He will have to return to Huashu in a few days. I'm afraid that person's goal is Xu Shi. If he follows Xu Shi How to go to school.
"Understood." Xu Shi thought that Xu Zheng was warning him to be quiet when going to school, and not to be late and leave early like before.
Xu Zheng thought: "Why don't you stay at home for a while first."
Xu Shi looked at him as if he had seen a ghost, and then said clearly: "Brother, you are testing me, aren't you? I won't be fooled."
Xu Shigang promised in front of Xu Zheng that he would be in the top ten of the class in the next exam, and Xu Zheng threw such a big bait in front of him.
Sinister intentions.
Xu Zheng opened his mouth, unable to argue.
this fool.
Facts have proved that Xu Zheng's intuition is really accurate.
In the evening, the man stood guard at the door of their house, pacing back and forth.
From the discovery of being followed to the official meeting, the difference was only a few hours.
Even Xu Shi noticed something was wrong, and tugged on Xu Zheng's sleeve: "Isn't that the person who asked us for directions during the day? Could it be that he came to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes? It shouldn't be, and I didn't point the wrong way..."
Xu Zheng clasped Xu Shi's shoulder to reassure him.
He walked up to the man and said vigilantly, "Hello, what can I do?"
The middle-aged man didn't care if he was hostile, he stretched out his hand: "Get to know me, my name is Cheng Li, your parents haven't come back yet?"
Looking for his parents?
Not long after Xu Zheng took his hand, he heard Xu Jingyan's voice: "President Cheng?"
Xu Jingyan had just returned home from get off work, and he was full of travel and dust. In contrast to the well-dressed routine, the former were ordinary people buried in the crowd, while the latter was a high-ranking decision-making class.
Cheng Li pushed his glasses and smiled politely at Xu Jingyan: "Jingyan."
Xu Jingyan was gentle with others, he was seldom impatient with others, and he was a little too cautious in the face of conventions. He took out the key in his bag and opened the door: "Go in and sit down."
Although Xu's house is not big, it is neat and tidy, and every corner is filled with the atmosphere of life.
The walls were covered with certificates of awards that Xu Zheng and Xu Shi had received, most of which belonged to Xu Zheng. Xu Shi's only one was hung in the middle, and there was a special photo frame for it.
The best student in the class, even Xu Shi himself doesn't necessarily remember when he got it.
Boxes piled up next to the TV, old clothes, temporarily unused fans and pots, and toys from their childhood.
The toys at home were all played by Xu Zheng when he was a child, and Xu Shi continued to play. Xu Zheng still remembers that once Xu Shi pushed down all the building blocks that had just been placed, and asked for a long time in his heart, "When will I stop playing with my brother's old toys?" Toy?"
Wang Yeping, who came over after hearing the sound, said displeasedly: "You child, aren't the toys all the same? You play for a while and stop playing. It's a waste to buy new ones."
"It's different." The young Xu Shi argued with her.
"You still pick some things to play with, you're used to it. These things don't lack arms or legs, how is it different?" Wang Yeping turned back to the kitchen to cook, "I warn you, no matter how noisy you are, you won't even be allowed to play with these things. "
The new and the old are just different.
Xu Shi stood aside aggrievedly, biting his lip and did not dare to make another sound.
After Xu Zheng observed the whole process, he ran to Xu Shi's ear and whispered a few words, and the sad Xu Shi was healed quickly.
What he said was, "It's okay, Mom won't buy it for you, brother will buy it for you, and tomorrow we will buy it with red envelopes."
Wang Yeping confiscated their red envelopes, and also wanted them to exercise their financial management skills since childhood.
The next day, Xu Zheng took Xu Shi and went straight to the mall, spent all his money, bought a toy car and came back.
After Wang Yeping found out, their annual red envelopes no longer belonged to her.
In her words: Little bastard, spend money as soon as you have it, and mom will save it for you.
Even so, that car was promoted to Xu Shi's new favorite, and he took it everywhere, and once a rear wheel was knocked off, Xu Shi was still sad about it for a long time.
Cheng Ji looked around every corner of Xu's house with almost greedy eyes, and finally stopped at the family portrait on the cabinet, a family of four, Xu Shi and Xu Zheng were wearing the same clothes, smiling contentedly.
Wang Yeping also returned home at this time, and when she saw Cheng Li, she froze for a moment, and said in a stiff tone, "Why are you here?"
"Come, drink tea." Xu Jingyan put the freshly brewed tea in front of Cheng Li.
The next second, Xu Zheng and Xu Shi, who were stuck in the living room, were expelled by Wang Yeping: "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Why don't you go back to do your homework."
Wang Yeping is very irritable today.
Xu Shi shivered from fright, and the two went back to the house obediently.
When Xu Zheng closed the door, he didn't forget to glance at the living room. Wang Yeping was standing by the sofa, with an arrogant and defensive attitude. Before they left, the atmosphere was still very stalemate.
After being driven back, Xu Shi was extremely curious, and discussed with Xu Zheng: "Who is that person in the living room?"
"I don't know." Xu Zheng was also helpless.
Uninvited guests who frequently meet in a day come to their home, and anyone will be aroused countless curiosity.
But neither he nor Xu Shi knew what that man was here for.
Xu Shi lay on the door and hooked his fingers towards Xu Zheng: "Come here, let's listen together."
The door was closed, but the sound could penetrate the gap.
Like him, Xu Zheng put his ear to the door and carefully identified what the people in the living room were saying.
Before hearing the sound, Xu Zheng pressed Xu Shi's hair with his hand, and it was fluffy piled up on his chin, a little itchy.
Such a posture is tantamount to Xu Zheng holding Xu Shi in his arms.
In the living room, Xu Jingyan spoke first to break the atmosphere, and patted the sofa next to him: "Yeping, come and sit."
Wang Yeping sat down reluctantly.
Cheng Li still held his breath and sipped his tea quietly.
After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Li said, "I came here this time to bring back Xu Shi."
"Hey, listen to this, how shameless." Wang Yeping's disdain was written on his face and in his voice.
Wang Yeping asked, "Did you control his life back then?"
As a rule, neither arrogance nor rashness: "In any case, blood is thicker than water. I admit that what I did was wrong at the beginning, and now I am here to make up for him."
"You don't show up, that's the best compensation for him." Wang Yeping replied.
"All of this has to be decided by Xu Shi himself." Xu Jingyan, who had been silent for a long time, came to a conclusion.
The sound insulation of Xu's house is not good, even though the sound is much quieter, Xu Zheng can hear every word that should be heard.
The one in the living room is Xu Shi's biological father?
Xu Zheng's first reaction was to look at Xu Shi's expression. Xu Shi was not as shocked as he thought, but was too calm, and even let out a sneer.
"You know?" Xu Zheng asked doubtfully.
Xu Shi turned around and left, knowing the real identity of that person, he was no longer interested in listening.
Only Xu Zheng was left in a daze, unable to react for a long time.
Isn't Xu Shi his brother?
how can that be possible.
The glutinous rice dumpling who followed him since he was a child, the first word he yelled was his brother's Xu Shi, how could it not be his brother?
Even if it was rebirth, Xu Zheng didn't react much.
As soon as this fact came out, it was like a thunderbolt passing through his body, and he was completely stunned.
Xu Zheng grew up watching Xu Shi.
When I was young, I was busy at home, and my parents had to go to work. Xu Shi was brought up by him little by little.
With this younger brother, even though Xu Zheng disliked him on the lips, he loved Xu Shi very much in his heart. He regarded Xu Shi as the most precious large toy, and the joy of raising cats and dogs was simply not comparable.
Xu Shi has been obedient since he was a child, neither crying nor making troubles. He eats and sleeps when he is full during the day. Xu Zheng teases him, and Xu Shi also holds his fingers with a smile.
Later, when he grew up, Xu Shi turned into Xu Zheng's little follower, wherever Xu Zheng went, Xu Shi followed him.
There are gains and losses, because he brought a child, and he couldn't play with his peers, Xu Zheng would get annoyed occasionally, and secretly left Xu Shi and ran out by himself.
In order to prevent Xu Shi from running around, the door was locked from the outside, and Xu Shi couldn't open it at home.
When Xu Zheng came back from the outside after having had enough fun, he faced Xu Shi who had been crying for a day and almost died. His eyes were red and swollen, and the doll he held in his hand was already wet from crying.
At that time, Xu Zheng wanted to slap himself. The poor Xu Shi made him realize how stupid he was.
From then on, Xu Zheng seldom went out, and basically stayed at home with Xu Shi.
Xu Shi also clings to him even closer, often asking: "Brother, will you go?"
Xu Zheng shook his head: "No."
Xu Shi still looked aggrieved: "Brother, don't abandon me."
"You are so annoying." Xu Zheng said distressedly.
Seeing that Xu Shi was about to cry, Xu Zheng immediately changed his words: "Don't bother, don't bother, oh, don't cry."
Xu Shi's reliance on him is stronger than anyone in the family.
When Xu Shi was a child, he almost followed Xu Zheng blindly.
What Xu Zheng said, what did he believe.
There is even a passage that goes astray.
Children are sensitive, Xu Shi has noticed that Wang Yeping doesn't like him very much since he was a child.
Wang Yeping likes Xu Zheng better.
Xu Shi was very sad at the time, and asked Xu Zheng privately, if his parents didn't like him, did he do something wrong?
Xu Zheng couldn't answer why, so he squeezed his arm and replied: "You are too thin, you look like a monkey, your parents will like you when you get fatter."
Xu Zheng looks tall and big, but Xu Shi looks thin and small.
Then Xu Shi started to eat all the time, wanting to do what Xu Zheng said, to eat a little fatter, so that my parents would like it.
Wang Yeping often called him a pig at the dinner table. She was typical of hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, and she rolled her eyes to the sky and didn't stop Xu Shi from eating.
As he ate and ate, Xu Shi fell in love with the pleasure of overeating. When he was in a bad mood, he ate desperately. As long as his stomach was full, the sadness in his heart could be relieved.
During that time, Xu Shi's weight swelled rapidly, he was as fat as a ball, and he had a double chin, which made Xu Shi even more unpopular with his parents.
Xu Zheng regretted it, so he treated Xu Shi even better.
Xu Shi was always chubby in elementary school, and gradually lost weight until he grew taller in junior high school.
Out of guilt, Xu Zheng turned into a pet brother madman, he saved his pocket money to buy food for Xu Shi, forced him to go for a run with snacks, and ran around to get some food.
So although Xu Shi is fat, he is also healthy.
In elementary school, if anyone bullied Xu Shi, Xu Zheng would definitely take revenge for Xu. Gradually, everyone knew that Xu Shi had an older brother who was not easy to mess with.
Xu Shi didn't like to talk before, so Xu Zheng tried every means to enlighten him, let him tell himself what happened, Xu Shi obeyed his words, and finally made Xu Shi develop the attribute of chatterbox.
Xu Zheng regretted this point more than once.
It can be said that in the Xu family, the whole family favored Xu Zheng, and Xu Zheng favored Xu Shi.
For Xu Zheng, Xu Shi has become a part of his life and is indispensable.
When pampering becomes a habit, it is not so easy to quit.
In his previous life, Xu Zheng spent his entire life in abstinence, but he was unsuccessful.
I don't intend to give up in this world.
Unexpectedly, Xu Shi was not his younger brother.
When Xu Zheng wanted to hit someone countless times, he used this excuse to persuade himself: my brother, dear, dear, bear with it.
As a result, the reason is not valid now?
Xu Shi quietly sat aside, with a mocking expression on his face revealing sadness.
"When did you know?"
Xu Shi looked up at him and recalled, "In the first year of junior high school."
Because it is not his own, there are many things that Xu Shi does not want to tell his family, including Xu Zheng.
Later, he regretted it, and firmly grasped Xu Zheng's last straw.
Without Xu Zheng, no one will treat him as a real family member.
Well now, even Xu Zheng, his only relative in this world, knows the truth.
For so many years, his brother loved a stranger.
Xu Shizao knew the truth, but because of selfishness, he refused to tell his brother, would his brother hate him...
Xu Zheng has never seen Xu Shi like this.
It's like losing your soul, like losing the whole world.
When he first came back, Xu Shi was very skinny, his mouth was so broken that people wanted to beat him, even if he was skinny, he was undoubtedly happy.
At this moment, Xu Shi's whole body was enveloped by a gloomy atmosphere, which could not be dissipated intensely, as if he was living in the shadows.
Xu Zheng's heart throbbed with pain.
It shouldn't be like this. He has spoiled his younger brother for so many years, and now he is so sad.
Xu Zheng hugged him without thinking, and comforted him with actions.
"What are you thinking? I've watched you for so many years, even if I'm not close to you, I will always be your brother." Xu Zheng's voice was firm.
Xu Zheng couldn't help but blame himself.
What was he thinking about?
The saddest thing right now should be Xu Shi.
Even if he knew that Xu Shi was not his real brother, could he put him down?
cannot.Xu Zheng's answer in his heart couldn't be more certain.
That being the case, his concern for Xu Shi will never change.
Xu Zheng's words hit the last line of defense in Xu Shi's heart.
Xu Shi couldn't bear it anymore, closed his eyes, tears poured out, and hugged Xu Zheng instead.
I don't know why, he was so sad.
Xu Zheng promised that he would always be his brother.
But this only made Xu Shi's heart aggravated.
That's not all he wanted.
"I don't want you to be my brother." Xu Shi made up his mind.
Before he finished the second sentence, Xu Zheng made a final decision: "If you don't want it, you have to."
Yes, Xu Shi was even more sad.
The two brothers hugged each other and cried in the room, and the confrontation in the living room continued.
Wang Yeping will never forget how much trouble has been caused to their family because of Xu Shi's arrival. Now that they are raised and want to leave, there is no door.
"Let me tell you, Xu Shi won't go with you, I advise you to give up that heart as soon as possible." Wang Yeping said viciously.
Cheng Shi is full of self-confidence in himself: "You already have a son, one is your own, and the other is forced to adopt, it will be biased no matter what."
"You still have the face to say it?" Wang Yeping mocked.
When Xu Shi arrived at their home, she was strongly opposed by Wang Yeping at first.
It all starts with the acquaintance between Wang Yeping and Xu Jingyan. What happened between them can almost compose a love story in the countryside in the 70s.
Wang Yeping, a typical rural woman, is the flower of Baxi Village. She is beautiful and has a pungent personality. The guys in the village don't like any of them except Xu Jingyan who is going to the countryside.
Xu Jingyan was gentle and gentle, with a temperament she had never seen before, so Wang Yeping often helped Xu Jingyan with work. The educated youth lived in poverty, and the wealthy family sent things every now and then. If the conditions were average, they had to carry them.
Wang Yeping took advantage of this to ask Xu Jingyan to go to her house for dinner. After going back and forth, the two fell in love with each other and got married.
After three years of marriage, policy reforms gave educated youths who had been sent to the countryside a chance to return to the city. Now it is divorced and returned to the city.
Xu Jingyan didn't intend to leave her, but Xu Jingyan's parents kept urging him to go back to the city. Fortunately, Wang Yeping was pregnant with Xu Zheng at this time. In order to bring her back to the city, Xu Jingyan's family found someone to change jobs. Became a hundred and two factory workers.
After Wang Yeping returned to the city with Xu Jingyan, she thought she would live a good life, but Xu Jingyan's parents were very picky about her, disliked that she was from the countryside, and she was not as good as Bai Qing.
Under pressure, Wang Yeping learned of Bai Qing's identity from Xu Jingyan's mouth. Bai Qing is the eldest daughter of a capitalist with a bad background. People will be divided.
Xu Jingyan's parents have long regarded Bai Qing as a future daughter-in-law. Bai Qing is knowledgeable, reasonable, gentle and generous, which is no match for a village girl like Wang Yeping.
During this period, Bai Qing also never got married, and only after Xu Jingyan came back did she start blind dates, marrying a rich second generation became a common practice.
Cheng Li is used to being playful, they were married less than two years, Cheng Li frequently cheated, the vixen succeeded in taking the position and squeezed out Bai Qing, after the divorce, Bai Qing found out that she was pregnant and decided to secretly give birth to the child.
On the day of giving birth, Bai Qing died of dystocia, and the child survived, and this child was Xu Shi.
Bai Qing is an orphan girl who has been taken care of by Xu Jingyan's parents for many years. After Bai Qing died, Xu Jingyan adopted Xu Shi despite Wang Yeping's objection.
Wang Yeping refused to die at first, throwing pots and making a fuss, but Xu Jingyan, who has always been mild-tempered, became hardened once in a while, and Xu Shi became their child just like that.
For this reason, Wang Yeping also pretended to go back to the countryside and brought Xu Shi back, pretending that she was born by herself.
At that time, family planning had already been implemented, and Xu Shi's family had paid tens of thousands of fines. Wang Yeping disliked Xu Shi even more. After getting along for a long time, she gradually treated Xu Shi as her own.
Xu Shi's personality is different from Xu Zheng's. Xu Zheng is mature and stable, while Xu Shi is mischievous and troublesome. Regardless of whether he is a biological element, as long as he is a normal person, he will like Xu Zheng.
In the beginning, Wang Yeping didn't care much about Xu Shi, it was all brought by Xu Zheng. After a long time, she slowly realized that Xu Shi was born without knowing anything, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Wang Yeping really regarded Xu Shi as her own son, so she kept scolding him.
After all, Xu Shi's mouth, sometimes Wang Yeping would like to sew it up with a needle.
Cheng Li got the news from Xu Shi from nowhere, and came back to have a baby, Wang Yeping naturally wouldn't let him succeed.
"It's a big financial burden for you to raise two children, right? I will compensate you, as long as Xu Shi can go back with me, you can tell me how much it will cost." Cheng Shi said condescendingly.
He believes that there is nothing in this world that money cannot solve.
"Get lost." It was unbelievable that Xu Jingyan, who had always been a boring gourd, would speak first.
Xu Jingyan has a good temper, but it doesn't mean he is a noodle guy who can be rubbed by others: "I called you Cheng Zong because you are my superior, but it doesn't mean you can be so unscrupulous in my house. Please get out now, our family doesn't Welcome."
Being rejected by someone pointing his nose face to face, Cheng Li couldn't hold back: "Don't regret it."
"What do you think I came to you in the first place? Don't you just want you to persuade Xu Shi well? Don't you want to toast and eat fine wine? Wait for me." Cheng Li threw the teacup in his hand heavily When he reached the table, the overflowing hot tea scalded the back of his hand red, causing him to withdraw his hand quickly.
Wang Yeping got up and chased them away: "Wait, wait for me to drive you away with a broom, right? Get out of here quickly."
Cheng Shi came out of Xu's house disheartened. He originally wanted to adopt the mildest solution, but the couple didn't know what to do.
The quarrel in the living room was so loud that Xu Zheng could hear it clearly in the room.
It was the first time he saw Wang Yeping get so angry.
Xu Zheng gently wiped away the tears on Xu Shi's face, and said to him: "Not only me, but parents also love you."
The love of parents is sometimes not obvious, but when conflicts really break out, the guns are always on the outside.
For dinner, the Xu family's first showdown in so many years.
Wang Yeping said domineeringly: "Don't worry, little bastard, although you were not born from my stomach, except for this, in my opinion, you are the same as your own."
Xu Jingyan's eyes were gentle: "Me too."
Xu Shi blushed a little, he had always been inferior to this point before, but now he put the words on the surface, which made him a little at a loss.
Wang Yeping then added: "And your brother, you see, your brother loves you so much since you were young, you can't be a little white-eyed wolf."
"I know." Xu Shi pursed his lips, he was always aware of this.
"Eat, eat." Xu Jingyan put a chicken leg in Xu Shi's bowl.
Wang Yeping picked up a chicken wing: "Eat more, you look thinner."
High school is the time for boys to grow taller. Xu Shi's height is quietly growing, and he looks thinner than before.
Xu Shi was overwhelmed by the multi-faceted care for a while, and dared not speak while gnawing on the chicken legs in the bowl.
It's rare to talk so little during a meal.
"You kid, don't you want to be the rich second generation?" Wang Yeping asked unexpectedly.
Xu Shi didn't swallow a mouthful of food and choked, Xu Zheng put down the chopsticks in his hand and patted him on the back: "Mom, what are you talking about while eating?"
Wang Yeping felt a little guilty: "I won't be right."
"It's not easy to be a rich second generation. I was with me when I was young." Xu Zheng had a smile in his eyes, "I will definitely be richer than that in the future."
The name Cheng Li had never been heard of after Xu Zheng made his fortune, and after thinking about it, he didn't get along very well.
Xu Shi clenched the chopsticks in his hand, not intending to get into their discussion.
What happened to these people today?
One by one, not normal.
In 16 years, it was the first time Xu Shi had been so relaxed.
A stone that was pressing in his heart was broken, so that he no longer had to worry about it.
Xu Shi looked at Xu Zheng with joy in his eyes: "Brother, brother."
"Hey." Xu Zheng answered him.
"I like you so much." Xu Shi said.
"Me too." Xu Zheng sat on the edge of the bed and opened his arms to him, "Sleep together?"
"Okay." Xu Shi's ending voice couldn't restrain its rise.
Xu Zheng had a dream tonight.
The dream is a scene from a previous life.
He was not at home in the previous life, Xu Shi had a tense relationship with his parents and family, and Wang Yeping was a straightforward person, sometimes he could not control his mouth and always complained.
Xu Jingyan insisted on wandering outside for several hours after get off work, and Xu Shi at home became the object of her venting.
As time passed, Xu Shi became more and more silent. When he got home, he locked himself in a small room and didn't come out easily.
At this time, Cheng Li appeared beside him.
The premeditated approach gave him a long-lost warmth.
Even when Cheng Li found him later, Xu Shi didn't reject him when he found out his identity.
There is a way to make a case. He first laid off Xu Jingyan and Wang Yeping successively. The Xu family's expenses became more and more tense. The poor and lowly couples were sad, and the family quarreled constantly every day. The only topic was worrying about money.
Xu Shi offered to go with Cheng Li, and the request was to give enough money to Xu's parents.
For this reason, the relationship between Xu Shi and his parents dropped to a freezing point.
Later, Xu Zheng woke up.
After waking up, it was Xu Shi who was sleeping beside him, Xu Shi grabbed his hand and held him tightly in his arms.
Xu Zheng looked at Xu Shi's side face and swore secretly:
With him here, the things in the dream will never happen again.
The usual means of retaliation came quickly and fiercely. This morning, Xu Jingyan was fired by his unit.
This result Xu Jingyan had already expected, as it was his boss, it was only a matter of one sentence to fire him, Xu Jingyan accepted it calmly.
Xu Jingyan, who was laid off at home, bought a parrot from the flower and bird market. It has green feathers and looks stupid. Xu Jingyan is teaching it to talk.
Every day I go out to walk around the birds and play chess, and my life is still carefree.
Wang Yeping resigned from the cafeteria work early, which did not affect her.
Rectifying one Xu Jingyan was not enough, as a rule, he stretched his hand even longer and focused on Xu Zheng's company.
Xu Zheng received a call in the afternoon. The freight company they had cooperated with was going to break the contract, and the coal could not be delivered.
Xu Zheng stabilized the other party's emotions: "No hurry, how much stock is there?"
"There are less than 50 tons left." The person in charge wailed repeatedly. Once the company's supply of goods cannot keep up, their reputation will be greatly damaged, and the loss will be a large amount of orders.
"Reduce orders these days, and I'll figure out the rest." Xu Zheng hung up the phone after finishing speaking.
become an example.
He memorized the name.
The transportation line from Guanle to Qianfeng has always been smooth and stable. Every three days, there will be a convoy pulling coal from the mine and transporting it to the factory.
The truck company that signed the agreement with them used to have a good cooperation, but now they want to break the contract at high liquidated damages. I think it is a common practice.
Xu Zheng first called You Zhi and asked him if there was any car available.
You Zhi said that he was helpless: "I asked, as long as I heard that it was the route to Qianfeng, no one dared to take it, did you offend someone? How about this, I still have a truck in my hand, you use it first? Don't run out of stock."
You Zhi's truck weighs [-] tons, and it takes one day to go back and forth from Guanle to Qianfeng, and the [-] tons is far from enough.
"Forget it, let me think about it again." Xu Zheng rejected his proposal, and admitted, "Yeah, I offended the villain, why, are you afraid?"
"Joke, who am I? Even if you offend the Heavenly King, I'm not afraid." You Zhi expressed his attitude positively.
Ever since Xu Zheng went to the mine last time, in You Zhi's heart, the two of them were life-and-death friendship.
As long as he can help, he is obliged.
You Zhi lowered his voice to comfort him: "Don't be discouraged, if there is nothing wrong, I'll ask my dad."
When You Zhi came out, he once let go of his father's harsh words: I can make a fortune without relying on you.
You Guanghong was also annoyed by him: Even if you beg me to help you, I will not help you.
A man's face is very important.
But for the sake of Xu Zheng, You Zhi can still lose face for a while.
Xu Zheng ran outside for a day, but still failed.
It's getting dark
