When the Xu family moved into their new home, the children's vacation was over halfway, and it was time to put on autumn fat. The parents of the Yang family were very happy and made a large table of dishes for them to come over to eat together.

Yang Ren knew that Xu Yao was unwilling, but he couldn't ignore his parents' kindness. After all, we will live together in the future.

The reason why they live together is because the doors of the two houses are at a ninety-degree angle. Yang Ren installed a security door in the corridor during the renovation, separating the doors of the two houses into a space. For one thing, the two families shared the same exit. If the old man was sick and wanted to go out, even if Xu Yao couldn't find it, the Yang family's parents on this side could see it in time.

Yang Ren's father cooked delicious food. He stewed the elbow and sauced the beef and pig's trotters. For dinner, Yang Ren took the three of Xu's family to the Yang's house on the west side.There were eight people around a square table, and the house suddenly became lively, and the old people were very happy. Yang Ren's father sat with Yang Yitong, Kang Xiaomeng sat with her mother, and the old man and Xiao Ai sat on the side, so Yang Ren sat Sitting next to Xu Yao logically.

Yang Ren's parents are very hospitable, and they always pick up food for everyone. Yang Yitong imitated his grandmother, and also picked up food for the guests. He wanted to pick up a pig's trotter for Xu Yao, but because he was not skilled in using chopsticks, it was difficult to pick up the big one. The heavy pig's trotter was picked up, and after several attempts without success, Yang Yitong was a little anxious, so he simply grabbed a pig's trotter with his small hand and put it into Xu Yao's bowl.

Xu Yao didn't know it. When he lowered his head to eat rice with chopsticks, he suddenly found something big in the bowl. He didn't know where the chopsticks should be placed. Yang Ren kept paying attention to him. Seeing him so uncomfortable and inconvenient, he followed He explained: "Tongtong picked up a pig's trotter for you, eat it with your hands."

Xu Yao smiled slightly to hide his embarrassment, but he didn't listen to him. He stretched his chopsticks under the pig's trotters to eat white rice, but he couldn't pick up a few grains.

Yang Ren asked him if he didn't want to eat pig's trotters, Xu Yao nodded, and Yang Ren put the pig's trotters in his bowl into his own, and added many convenient dishes to Xu Yao's bowl.

No matter how small this series of actions was, everyone noticed. Some of them were surprised that Xu Yao needed help so much, and some felt sorry and sad for such Xu Yao. A reunion dinner.

The two children didn't feel any awkward atmosphere, and talked to the adults at the table.As soon as he heard someone talking, Xu Yao stopped his chopsticks and listened intently, for fear that someone was talking to him and he would miss the sound. Looking at his appearance, Yang Ren sighed heavily, then stretched his hand under the dining table and remained still. He patted Xu Yao's thigh sensually, and signaled him to just eat and don't care about other people's words, and he can block it for him.

After the meal, Yang Ren went to find his parents and discussed with them whether they could eat separately even though they lived together.

"How?" Yang Ren's stepmother didn't understand.

Yang Ren explained: "It means that after you finish cooking, divide it into two portions. You eat here, and the other portion is delivered to Xu's family, so that the three of them can eat by themselves."

Hearing this, Yang Ren's father was a little angry, but was pressed down by his stepmother. Yang Ren knew that it was embarrassing to ask his parents to cook for Xu's family for a long time, and it was really inappropriate to make these requests himself. Then he explained with a rare good temper: "Xu Yao is inconvenient and will be very reserved in front of everyone. You see, he didn't eat half a bowl of rice today."

Yang Ren's stepmother asked: "What about you? If you share the food in the future, where do you eat?"

Yang Ren's neck turned red, and he stammered: "Here, which one is different? I will try to eat it at our house."

Yang Ren's stepmother smiled and gave Yang Ren's father a wink to express her agreement. Seeing their attitude, Yang Ren was finally relieved, and said: "By the way, you can put coriander when you cook in the future, and you don't have to think about me."

At this time, Yang Ren's parents were surprised: "How dare we let it go, every time you let it go, you say the taste is too strong, and you don't even eat the rice."

"It's okay, Xu Yao and the others love to eat, so let's let it go, and I don't want to pinch it?" Yang Ren said.

Seeing winter melon in the kitchen and some minced meat in the freezer, Yang Ren pinched a few balls and made winter melon ball soup for Xu Yao.

When he entered Xu Yao's room, he was packing up the sorting boxes that he had brought over. If he had no eyesight and only groped with his hands, it would take more time than ordinary people. Fortunately, Xu Yao is a very careful person, and he can slowly Put everything in a familiar place.

Putting down the bowl, Yang Ren squatted in front of Xu Yao, worried that the sudden movement would scare him, and was thinking about how to greet him, when Xu Yao suddenly stopped his hands and turned his head slightly, as if he had spotted him.

Yang Ren was overjoyed, grabbed Xu Yao's hand and put it on his lips, saying, "Can you see me?"

Xu Yao's expressionless face gradually changed, and he explained: "I feel the wind."

"Wind?" Yang Ren was a little disappointed, but also a little curious. Can he bring out the wind just by squatting down?

"Is there something wrong?" Xu Yao asked him, Yang Ren was taken aback, but he didn't understand Xu Yao's vague pronunciation.

"What did you say?" As soon as the words came out, Yang Ren regretted it.Although Xu Yao's pronunciation and tone are getting more and more abnormal, but fortunately he doesn't know how serious it is, at least he is willing to talk to Yang Ren, but if he knows that no one can understand what he said, he Do you still have the courage to speak up in the future?
