Baby

"During this period of time, your father temporarily placed Tang Li in a guest house next to the police station," Tang Daihe said to Jiang Ye while packing up the dishes, "I sometimes go to deliver some meals. At first, I went back to get the bowls When I came back, I found that there was not a single bite of the food. Later, I will gradually lose a few mouthfuls."

Jiang Ye just brought the dishes out of the kitchen: "Why? Doesn't he like these dishes?"

Tang Daihe smiled: "I think it's because he is more shy. Later, I helped him wash his clothes a few times. He should know me by now."

Jiang Ye nodded thoughtfully. The dishes on the table were steaming, and Jiang Ye asked, "Where is Dad? When are they going home?"

Tang Daihe glanced at the quartz clock hanging on the wall.

"It should be... half an hour."

Today is the day I agreed with my parents to take Tang Li's brother home.Tang Daihe specially cooked a large table of delicious dishes, and waited with Jiang Ye for the arrival of father and son.

After opening his heart and having a good chat with his mother that day, Jiang Ye began to let go of his psychological grievances about the new family member, and tried to welcome his younger brother with a warm and friendly attitude.His mother said that Tang Li was a little introverted and not very talkative.Jiang Ye was also becoming an older brother for the first time, so he was inevitably a little nervous.

Looking at the clock, I feel uneasy.Jiang Ye suddenly turned over from the sofa, trotted to the room, and mysteriously took out a red package.Open the outer plastic bag, reveal the small iron box inside and show it to Tang Daihe: "Mom, look!"

Tang Daihe said "hmm": "What is this?"

Jiang Ye opened the tin cover with excitement, and inside was a stack of old and new yellow cards: "This is a set of game cards in my collection, the full version! I have collected them for a long time, and I plan to give them to my younger brother. I don't know if he will accept them." would like it."

Tang Daihe knew that among the boys in their elementary school, a picture-taking game had always been popular. It seemed that such yellow pictures with logos were hard to find.Jiang Ye prepared this gift very carefully, Tang Daihe also curled up his lips to praise him: "You have such a heart, I believe my brother will be very happy!"

Jiang Ye smiled embarrassedly.

It was raining lightly outside the window, and the raindrops fell on the window, making scattered noise.I have been waiting for an hour, and the food has been heated round after round, but the figures of the two have not appeared at the stairs.

Jiang Ye was a little tired after waiting, and fell asleep while hugging the pillow on the sofa.Tang Daihe was also a little worried. When he called, Jiang Shaohui only said that there was a traffic jam and asked her to wait.

In fact, Tang Daihe could probably guess the real reason.

Jiang Ye took a nap, knocked his head on the arm of the sofa, and woke up in a daze.As soon as I regained consciousness, my stomach began to growl. "Mom, can I have some cookies first?"

Tang Daihe could only smile apologetically, and brought some biscuits for Jiang Ye to cushion first.After Jiang Ye finished eating almost a small can of breakfast biscuits, two heavy footsteps finally appeared at the door.

"Hey! They're here." Jiang Ye excitedly jumped up from the sofa, and immediately went to open the door.As soon as he looked up, he saw Jiang Shaohui with a tired face, his hair was wet, and his coat was stained with water marks.

"Why don't you bring an umbrella?" Tang Daihe came over immediately with a dry towel, Jiang Shaohui led Tang Li upstairs, let go of his palm at the door, and laughed a few times: "I forgot when I left, so I brought an umbrella .”

It was a child with fair skin and delicate features.He was several heads shorter than Jiang Ye, and looked a little unhealthily stunted.The first time Jiang Ye saw Tang Li, he felt that he was different from those playmates around him. Tang Li's appearance was very beautiful.Jiang Ye himself also felt very strange why he used the word "beautiful" to describe a boy.

But although Tang Li was handsome, he didn't have a smile on his face, and he didn't even look at Jiang Ye when he entered the door.He just stood there blankly at the door without saying a word.

Jiang Ye wanted to take the initiative to say hello, but Jiang Shaohui first took Tang Li's hand and led him to the dining table: "Sit down first. Dai He, bring some food!"

Jiang Ye also closed the door smoothly, and immediately sat down in the seat next to Tang Daihe.Tang Daihe filled four bowls of rice from the kitchen and brought them up on a plate. He took the towel Jiang Shaohui was wiping his hair by the way: "Is there a lot of traffic jams today? The road is hard. Come, drink some hot soup first to keep warm."

Jiang Ye immediately got up sensible, and helped his mother bring four bowls of hot ginger soup, and each of them handed out a bowl at hand.When it was sent to Tang Li's side, Jiang Ye wanted to take the opportunity to say hello, but Tang Li's face was gloomy, and his expression didn't look so friendly.

Jiang Ye had no choice but to return to his seat, and took a sip of the soup stiffly.

But Tang Li still didn't speak, he just stared at the white porcelain bowl, without any intention of moving his mouth.

Jiang Ye looked a little anxious, but Jiang Shaohui was used to it. He just patted Tang Li on the back and motioned him: "Try it, brother specially served it for you to warm up."

Tang Li didn't react too much, just nodded towards the porcelain bowl, then stretched out his fingers to pick up the bowl carefully, took a sip, and took another sip.

After eating a bowl of hot soup, the atmosphere seemed to relax a bit.

Jiang Ye was looking forward to Jiang Shaohui's formal introduction.When the hot soup in Tang Li's hand drank little by little, Jiang Shaohui finally had the intention to speak.Jiang Ye looked at the "new brother" who would eat and live with him in the future, full of curiosity and anticipation.

Jiang Shaohui looked at Jiang Ye, smiled, and said: "This is what I told you before, brother, Tang Li." He turned his head and looked at Tang Li who seemed to be distracted: "The person sitting opposite is The older brother at home, Jiang Ye, who is 4 years older than you."

Tang Li didn't speak, but a pair of bright black eyes stared at Jiang Ye in front of him.Jiang Ye hesitated for a few seconds, then stretched out his little hand to Tang Li to say hello: "Hello, I will be your brother from now on. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time." He hurriedly added: "I mean, I will do my best to help you!"

And Tang Li didn't seem to understand Jiang Ye's movements, blinked his eyes a few times, and felt a little uneasy, but his body didn't respond.Jiang Shaohui smiled, reached out and patted Jiang Ye's head, and said warmly, "Okay, Tang Li got a little motion sick along the way, let him rest for a while, let's eat first."

After a silent dinner, Jiang Shaohui went to the bathroom to take a hot bath, while Tang Daihe was washing dishes in the kitchen beside him.Encouraged by his mother's eyes, Jiang Ye bravely stepped forward to hold his younger brother Tang Li's hand again, "Let's go to the living room to watch TV for a while!"

Tang Li was surprisingly well-behaved. He was held by Jiang Ye, and he didn't resist or speak. He lowered his head, but his fingers trembled a little.

Jiang Ye felt that Tang Li was a little afraid of him, so he carefully led him to the sofa, and found him a comfortable pillow, hoping that he could sit more comfortably.

"I'll turn on the TV for you. If you want to watch any program, you can tune it yourself." Jiang Ye handed the remote control to Tang Li, but Tang Li just looked at Jiang Ye without making any movements.Jiang Ye thought that he might not know how to use the remote control yet, so he bent down and taught him carefully: "Look, this button is for channel adjustment, left and right. This button is for volume adjustment, up and down...ah, that's right! I I have prepared a small present for you."

Said, Jiang Ye happily put down the remote control, ran to his room, took out the tightly wrapped red package, and carefully opened it in front of his younger brother: "Look, this is the 'Shenlong' and 'Dragon Ball' A complete set of game cards, 35 cards! I have collected them for a long time, and now, I give them all to you."

Jiang Ye's eyes were shining brightly, looking at Tang Li, hoping that he would accept his gift of meeting.But Tang Li still didn't respond, Jiang Ye couldn't help being a little disappointed, and silently put the small tin box on the coffee table beside him.

At this time, Tang Daihe came out of the kitchen, holding a plate of egg fried rice in his hand.Seeing Jiang Ye and Tang Li sitting together, his eyes were crooked with a smile: "Children, do you want an extra meal?"

"Mom!" Jiang Ye stood up happily, for a moment he was glad that his mother showed up in time to relieve the embarrassment, "What is this?"

It is a plate of hearty egg fried rice with diced meat, diced carrots and diced corn.Tang Daihe smiled and put the fried rice on the coffee table, and took two small bowls, "Tang Li, I saw that you didn't eat much just now, and I was afraid that you would be hungry at night, so I made some fried rice." At the guest house, Tang Li seemed to have eaten a few more bites of her fried rice than usual.Tang Daihe thought that fried rice was more to Tang Li's taste, so he specially made more fried rice this time.

"This fried rice smells delicious, so I want to eat some too!" Jiang Ye happily picked up the bowl, "Brother, let me serve it for you first—brother?"

Turning around, Tang Li was lowering his head, his head was deeply hidden in his elbows, his thin shoulders were trembling slightly.

"Tang Li? What's wrong with you?" Jiang Ye stepped forward and patted Tang Li's back with concern. He remembered that his father comforted Tang Li in the same way before.Tang Daihe also quickly put down the bowl, squatted down to comfort Tang Li: "What's wrong? Did you catch a cold? Do you want to take a hot bath first?"

Suddenly, a strong force shook Jiang Ye's hand away, and Jiang Ye's palm hit the armrest of the sofa, causing him to cry out in pain.When he raised his head again, he met Tang Li's eyes flooded with anger in astonishment!

Resentment, pain, hatred... The young boy's face seemed to be filled with darkness and depression that didn't suit his age, and all of them burst out at this second!

"Pooh!"

A mouthful of purulent phlegm with a bloody smell landed in the middle of the delicate and beautiful egg fried rice. Before Jiang Ye had time to be surprised, the boy snatched the tin box on the coffee table, threw it on the ground and stomped it down!Dong dong dong, there was a ferocious sharp rubbing sound from the floor, Jiang Ye stared blankly at the iron box that he regarded as a treasure gradually deformed and twisted under Tang Li's feet - finally, Tang Li pulled out 35 pieces of paper from the rotten box. A card, torn to shreds like venting anger!

After finishing a series of actions, Tang Li clenched his fists and panted anxiously. Three seconds later, he turned around and rushed out the door!

Jiang Ye completely froze in place.

Tang Daihe was so surprised that his face turned pale. Jiang Shaohui rushed out of the bathroom wearing a bath towel when he heard the movement: "What's wrong? What happened!?"

Tang Daihe covered his mouth, pointed in the direction of the door, and said dumbly, "Hurry up!"

Jiang Shaohui's complexion changed drastically, he hurriedly put on his coat and trousers and rushed out.
