I don't know if it was because I slept too late last night or because I was frightened when I saw Lin Guoxiang's stern side for the first time. Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue didn't have much energy all morning. Eggplant-like.

Mrs. Zhao felt distressed when she saw it, and hugged the two children in her arms and coaxed softly: "Oh, who made my grandson angry, look at this little face, tell grandma I Go help you clean him up!"

Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue sneaked a glance at Lin Guoxiang from the corners of their eyes almost at the same time, and then lowered their heads at the same time to keep silent. No matter how coaxed or asked by Mrs. Zhao, they just kept silent.

Lin Guoxiang was amused, Xiao Mian's kid with bigger farts has a good temper, and he even sulked with her?You did something wrong and taught you a lesson for your own good, but it was wrong to teach you a lesson?

"Mother, just ignore them and let them play on their own." Lin Guoxiang said, she didn't want Mrs. Zhao to know what happened last night, so she thought for a while, "Maybe I was tired after playing wildly outside yesterday. Alright, just rest for a while."

Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue were a little uncomfortable seeing Mrs. Zhao today because of what happened last night, and at the same time worried that Lin Guoxiang would expose them. Now they couldn't help but feel relieved when they heard Lin Guoxiang say this. tone.The stone in my heart fell to the ground, and soon the whole person gradually became alive again, but it was still a bit awkward whether he had never grown up by Zhao's side.

However, Mrs. Zhao is very experienced in dealing with children. With a few words, he stirred up the emotions of the two little guys, and even told some small jokes to make the two kids grin happily.

Lin Fanghou went to the fourth uncle's house early in the morning and dragged Lin Fangnian out of the bed, who was still sleeping on the bed. The two children each had a pancake in their mouths and ran to grandma's house. Stamped his feet and shouted loudly: "Why did you two run away without eating? Lin Fangnian, you little bastard, come back to me, at least eat and then go to play with your cousin..."

If Lin Fangnian can be obedient and obedient, he will be called hell. Twelve and thirteen-year-old children are just playing, and they wish they could play wildly outside during the day and night. If it weren't for the strict supervision of the adults above, it is estimated that they are not allowed to go out at night. They all go out to play in groups at night.

However, although Lin Fanghou and Lin Fangnian were not afraid of Little Gu, they were very respectful to their grandfather and did not dare to disobey him at all. They were afraid that his grandfather was still at home, so they walked around outside and looked at the sky, guessing that his grandfather should be I had already gone out to work, so I rushed into the small courtyard of my grandfather's house excitedly, and before entering the door, they all shouted at the inside: "Big cousin, second cousin, come out and show you some good things today." !"

Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue were overjoyed when they heard the voices of their two cousins. Children are the easiest to get acquainted with. Although they only played with Lin Fanghou and Lin Fangnian for a day, the four children played quite well. There is a feeling of seeing each other late.

Just as Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue wanted to respond, they suddenly thought of something, so they all looked at Lin Guoxiang, their pitiful look made Lin Guoxiang dumbfounded: "Look at what I am doing, if you want to play, go out and play. "

She thought to herself: Am I so scary that I have to get my approval to go out to play?
Lin Guoxiang didn't know, but in a sense, she was indeed quite scary.

Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue got Lin Guoxiang's consent, cheered softly and rushed out of Mrs. Zhao's arms like two cannonballs. After a while, they turned back and gave her a decent salute, then ran out again. , which made Mrs. Zhao smile from ear to ear, and boasted: "Yes, it is my grandson after all, but it is different. Look at this little guy who is so old. It’s really good to salute! I’m sure I’ll have a great future when I grow up!”

Lin Guoxiang was ashamed, and quickly said: "Mother, don't praise them like that, the children can't help boasting, if they know that you praise them so much, they will be so proud. If you say this again, others will listen to it too much." It's embarrassing, it's not good."

Zhao disapproved: "It's okay, children should praise him more when he does the right thing, so that in the future he will know that what he did was right and it will make adults happy." Curved, the expression on the face is also very kind and kind.

Lin Guoxiang sighed in her heart, thinking: Is this the so-called intergenerational relationship?Just like Father Lin, he can chase and beat his son with a broom with shoe soles all over the yard, but he is very kind when he treats his grandchildren, even though those juniors are more afraid of him.

……

Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue ran out with their two cousins ​​originally intending to catch fish in the river. This was what they discussed last night, but it is early summer and early in the morning after all, and the river is still relatively cold. They took off their shoes and only tested the water temperature with their toes, then each of them shivered from the cold and quickly put on their shoes, no one ever mentioned the matter of going down to catch fish.

"Then where are we going to play now?" Lin Fangnian asked Lin Fanghou. Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue also looked at him and waited for his decision. Obviously, these four children were led by Lin Fanghou. There was no way. Who told him to be better at playing? ?In fact, to put it bluntly, he is a little bit naughtier than ordinary children, and it is understandable to be the king of children.

"Hmm..." Lin Fanghou held his chin in his hand and pondered for a while, then said, "Let's go fetch the bird's nest!"

This proposal was unanimously approved by Wang Yuanzhi and others, and Wang Yuanzhi held his head proudly and said: "I am the best at this. I used to climb trees when I was at home!" The matter of taking them to the bird's nest at the top of the mountain to dig wild vegetables was concealed. The child's intuition is very keen, and his intuition told him that if he told this matter, it would definitely cause trouble.

Wang Yuanyue nodded sharply on the side: "Brother can climb trees so fast!" As for the matter of digging wild vegetables up the mountain, he also omitted it. The two brothers really have a perfect understanding.

Lin Fanghou was immediately unconvinced when he heard his little cousin's words: "How fast can it be? Can it crawl faster than me?"

Lin Fangnian secretly wiped his sweat from the side, thinking: You are such a grown-up, but you still compete with your two little cousins ​​over this, don't you think it's embarrassing?Alas, what a misfortune for the family...

"Of course it's faster than my cousin!" Wang Yuanyue was very proud of his brother, stretched out his arms and gestured, "It's as fast as a monkey climbing a tree!"

Lin Fanghou sneered: "Have you ever seen a monkey climb a tree?" He even said he could climb faster than a monkey, and he couldn't even lie. Now the lie has been exposed, shame on you.

Wang Yuanyue froze when he heard the words, his face flushed red, and he couldn't help himself for a long time before he choked out three words: "I haven't seen it..."

"Then it's over." Lin Fanghou said very proudly, without giving in to his little cousin's self-consciousness at all, he said to Wang Yuanzhi, "How about this, let's compete to see who can climb the tree the fastest?"

"Then there has to be a bet. What's the point of just comparing it like this?" Lin Fangnian didn't even realize he was an older brother at all, so he booed along with him.

"Of course there is a bet." Lin Fanghou conjured up a small paper bag with sharp edges and corners wrapped in paper. When he opened it, he saw that there were two candy corners inside. The three children were drooling greedily.In ancient times, sugar was a good thing. The savings in rural life usually only buy some small snacks like this to satisfy children’s cravings during the Chinese New Year, so even boys who don’t like sweets will get tired of seeing such sweets. The candy corners will also make the eyes drool.

"If you see the two trees in front of you, whoever climbs up the branch first will win, and these two candy dice are the prize." Lin Fanghou was very satisfied with the performance of the three younger brothers. Candy slots, which he was reluctant to eat, were used as bets.

"You mean what you say?" Wang Yuanzhi asked him.

"Of course!" Lin Fanghou nodded.

"Okay then, just wait and give me the candy dime." Wang Yuanzhi said confidently.

"It's not certain who will win?" Lin Fanghou carefully wrapped the candy corner and handed it to Wang Yuanyue for him to store it for him, and asked Lin Fangnian to be the referee.Both he and Wang Yuanzhi ran confidently to the two trees that had been designated in front, each eagerly waiting for the referee to start.

"Prepare—start!" Before Lin Fangnian could finish his sentence, Wang Yuanzhi and Lin Fanghou jumped up the tree several times with extreme agility like monkeys. In the end, Lin Fanghou took the lead by taking advantage of his long arms and legs.Lin Fanghou sat on the branch of the tree and smiled proudly. He winked at Wang Yuanzhi who was also sitting on the branch of the tree: "Cousin, what's the matter, should I win?"

Unconvinced, Wang Yuanzhi turned his face to one side, but suddenly saw a familiar figure getting closer and closer to this side, and he couldn't help being stunned when he took a closer look at the person who came, isn't that his father?

Wang Yuanzhi thought he was wrong, and quickly rubbed his eyes vigorously with his hands, but saw that Xiucai was smiling and waving at him, and at the same time made a silent movement.He understood immediately, and quickly turned his face to glance at Lin Fanghou who was still there proudly, and he was a little relieved when he saw that he didn't find his father.

Wang Yuanzhi rolled his eyes and thought of a way: "Cousin, I was too nervous just now and now I want to pee."

Lin Fanghou was taken aback for a moment, and then he waved his hands cheerfully: "Hurry up and come back, come back later and eat the candy corners, or they will eat them up."

"I see." Wang Yuanzhi slid down the tree with a chirp, pretended to be in a hurry to urinate, and ran towards the place where the scholar was. Lin Fanghou was dumbfounded, and said to himself: This child can't hold it until now, how pitiful , It was so suffocated.

"Father... Huhu, why are you here... When did you arrive?" Wang Yuanzhi asked out of breath just as he stopped in front of the scholar.

"I just arrived." Xiucai said with a smile after helping Wang Yuanzhi wipe off the fine sweat that ran from his forehead, and patted his back to calm him down.

"Just arrived?" Wang Yuanzhi was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked with some uncertainty, "Father...you came here by donkey cart?" No, even by donkey cart, it was not so fast. But it's been almost a day's journey!

"Oh, I came here last night." Xiucai said casually.

"Father, you..." Wang Yuanzhi's nose was sour and he wanted to cry. He lowered his head and saw that the scholar's shoes and trousers were all wet with dew, and there were a lot of grass leaves on them. .

"Your mother... and younger brother are all okay?" Xiucai obviously didn't want to talk about this issue, so he changed the subject, "Grandpa, grandma, and the others hired a doctor for your mother? What did the doctor say?"

Wang Yuanzhi didn't understand very much, since his father was related to his mother and younger brother, why didn't he ask them himself?But after thinking about it, I understood a little bit. I was afraid that grandpa, grandma and uncle would not let him see his mother, so he honestly explained the situation to Xiucai in detail, and finally Xiucai learned that Lin Guo There is nothing serious about Xiang's body, as long as he takes good care of his body for a while, he will be fine. A hanging heart finally calmed down, and he was obviously relieved.

"It's fine, it's fine..."

If Lin Guoxiang knew that the scholar had come to Wang Yuanzhi to ask this question, he would probably have kicked him into the river, where the hell would he have died, is it too late to think about caring about his wife and son now?

The scholar asked again: "Then where do you live now? Is it still the room you left for your mother?"

Wang Yuanzhi nodded.

"Are you still used to living?"

Wang Yuanzhi nodded again.

"Then... are grandma and the others alright?" Xiucai was obviously looking for something to say.

"Well, they are all very good." Wang Yuanzhi replied honestly, and suddenly remembered something, and added, "Grandma and uncle are very good to me and my brother, so don't worry, dad." At least they are better than grandma. Too much, he didn't dare to say the latter sentence.

"As long as everything is fine, then I can rest assured." Xiucai said, "Okay, go back quickly, I should go back too."

"Father, don't you want to go see Mother and the others?" Wang Yuanzhi asked when he heard that Xiucai was leaving and grabbed his sleeve.

"I won't go. Your mother and the others probably haven't calmed down. I will only make them even more angry if I go. It's not good." Xiucai finally had some self-knowledge, knowing that he was an unwelcome person in the Lin family, so he was very happy. It is wise not to make everyone unhappy.

"But, if you don't show up, aren't they even more angry, mother?"

"It's okay, I'll come back in two days." Xiucai patted Wang Yuanzhi's head and said.

"Do you need me and my brother to help you speak well?"

The scholar was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled: "Of course I need it if possible." After speaking, he bent down a little and whispered to Wang Yuanzhi. Wang Yuanzhi was startled, then smiled, and finally nodded heavily. He promised: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely help you take care of your mother and younger brother!"

Xiucai laughed when he heard his son's words: "Well, Dad believes in you, but you must keep it a secret, you can't even tell about your younger brother." Then he waved to him, "Go back quickly, don't let them wait." Anxious."

"Well, I see." Wang Yuanzhi is in a great mood now, and he waved at his father and ran away without any nostalgia, leaving Xiucai sighing: Heartless boy, he has no nostalgia at all... Thinking about it, I still feel quite uncomfortable.It's just that he didn't know that when he turned to leave, Wang Yuanzhi suddenly stopped and turned his face to take a peek at his background. He sniffed and promised in his heart: Dad, don't worry, I will definitely let us A family reunion!In his son's heart, no matter how many shortcomings this father has, he is still a good father. He never thought that one day he would change his surname and call a strange man his father. It would be more comfortable to kill him directly.
