Silently affectionate

"I..." Su Kesheng opened his mouth, but found that his throat was dry and hoarse, and he couldn't speak.

Si Chao then "shushed", his voice was soft enough to squeeze water out: "I don't need your answer."

The distance between them was very close, so close that if anyone moved a little, their foreheads might touch each other. Su Kesheng stiffened his body and did not dare to move, and the whole car fell silent in an instant.

Su Kesheng even thought that he was going to kiss again.

But no, Su Kesheng clearly saw an emotion called disappointment flashing in his eyes, then slowly turned around, pursed the corners of his mouth, and started to reverse the car.

Looking at Si Chao like this, for some reason, he suddenly felt as if his heart had been pricked a little by the tip of a needle, and the stinging pain had disappeared before he even realized it, as if nothing had ever existed. .

He suddenly felt panic.

There was nothing to say along the way, except that when Su Jian got into the car, she was surprised why this strange uncle came to pick them up again. After searching for an answer to no avail, she told herself from the bottom of her heart: His father might have paid them a lot of money.

Praise him when he goes back.

The child doesn't know why, every time Si Chao is in front of him, he is very quiet, so quiet that he is completely different from the usual old Su Jian, sometimes when Su Kesheng looks at him, he can't help but marvel in his heart that this child is playing tricks when the wind blows character.

The persimmon was soft, the child dared to be mischievous in front of him, probably because he knew that he would not really punish him.

Because there was no traffic jam for the first time today, the car drove to Su Kesheng's home without any hindrance.When he and Su Jian got out of the car, Su Jian disappeared in a flash—probably because she was in a hurry to go home to find her mother.

Su Kesheng and Si Chao looked at each other for a long time without saying a word, Su Kesheng said: "Goodbye."

Si Chao seemed to want to get closer to him, moved his foot slightly, and finally stopped, took a deep breath, and called him softly: "Su Kesheng."

This seemed to be the first time Si Chao called his name since their reunion.Su Kesheng was taken aback for a moment, and then responded, "Huh?"

"Don't make me wait too long." He clenched his fists tightly and then loosened them, as if all the strength in his body was exhausted in this movement. His brows were so dark that Su Kesheng couldn't understand, and his eyes lost a little bit What is true is the courage he has accumulated for many years before daring to embrace him.

Su Kesheng didn't know what to say - if he agreed, he would be very irritable; if he didn't agree, Si Chao's appearance made him... feel distressed.

Yes, it is distressing.The feeling of being slightly swept by the needle light is distressing.

But he couldn't agree, because both of them... are men.

He then heard Si Chao say: "Actually... I don't have much courage at all. Maybe you know very little about me, but I know so much about you that you can't even imagine. If you are willing to accept me... I There are still many things to tell you."

"It's been too long, and my patience has long been exhausted..."

The two of them hadn't finished talking that day, but they were interrupted by Su Jian who came down suddenly. Su Jian ran to Su Kesheng's side nervously, and tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Dad, my mother called you Go up...there is someone at home."

Su Kesheng was taken aback: "Who is it?"

"I didn't know, it's an old lady," Su Jian anxiously tugged on the hem of his clothes, "my mother said it was urgent, so hurry to save her."

There was a buzzing in Su Kesheng's mind, and he probably guessed who it was.

He didn't even have time to say hello, so he nodded to Si Chao: "We'll talk about it another day." Then he was dragged home by Su Jian.

He walked quickly all the way to the door of the house.When I opened the door, I saw a little old lady standing in the middle of the living room, holding a feather duster in her hand and waving its feathers vigorously. The feathers that occasionally fell in the air seemed to radiate glory.

Su Kesheng's head became dizzy in an instant, and then the little old lady turned around when she heard the door opening, and stared at her eyes: "Hey, stand over here, this is great, everyone is here."

And his elder sister, with his padded vest under her legs, bowed her head, kneeling very reverently next to the base of the wall.

Su Kesheng: "...Mom, why are you here?"

"What? I can't come anymore?" His mother glared at each other, her face turned blue, obviously she was serious, "What happened to your siblings? Why don't you let me know what happened?"

Su Kesheng was flustered and didn't see Su Meng making eye contact with him, so he tried to excuse himself and said, "No, no, I said you came here without even saying hello, it's not safe for such a person to take the train outside, let me tell you Let me tell you that I can ask the unit to pick you up, and there will be a..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by someone who came out of the kitchen.

——His father is here too.

"..." Su Kesheng was speechless, so he could only respond in silence, and after a while he managed to say something: "Why are you all here, why is the house in my hometown gone?"

His father underwent a major liver operation a few years ago, and his physical condition has plummeted since then, and there are still some unavoidable sequelae after many years.So when something happened at home, the first thing Su Kesheng's family had to do was to hide it from his father, so as to save him from getting angry and hurting his body. I don't know what happened this time, why did his father come with him?

His father had been taciturn in the early years, and he remained calm when encountering things. In Su Kesheng's heart, he was always a stable figure. That serious illness did not break him down. In recent years, he has learned Taijiquan, and his mentality has improved even more. one floor.

But now his father is obviously angry, and he snatched the feather duster from his mother and gave him a blow: "Stinky boy, I have raised you for the past two years! I keep everything from the family, can I wait for a day?" You have to help her hide it from us if your sister killed a fire! If your cousin hadn’t told your aunt, your mother and I wouldn’t know that we even have a grandson!”

Su Kesheng gritted his teeth and endured it for a while, thinking to himself: This old lady is a bad mouther.

And his mother obviously didn't want to make his father angry, and didn't stop him. She grabbed the feather duster and continued to beat her. She twitched a few times and scolded: "Your sister didn't know the heights of the world since she was a child, so why did you start messing around with her?" And, how come the bigger you get, the tiger you get!"

The two of them stole glances at Papa Su who seemed to have calmed down, and looked at each other after heaving a sigh of relief. There was only one thought in each other's minds—his aunt, this old lady, didn't know how to tell.

After a pause, his mother found an old cotton vest from somewhere, neatly piled it on the ground, placed it next to Su Meng, and pointed at it with a feather duster: "Come on, you two kneel together and forget about it."

In the Su family, the most important thing to teach children is to let them stand upright and kneel. First, this posture is easy at first, but it becomes a little sore after kneeling for a long time; moreover, this posture can last for a long time, and it is not very harmful to the body. , not as brutal as other actions.

The only bad thing is that it is a bit humiliating, so the Su family's parents never approached them when they were kneeling, and let them kneel to the sky, which is called kneeling to God.

His parents somehow got a small incense burner and put it on the table. There were three sticks of incense on it and smoke was floating. Su Kesheng didn't notice it when he entered the door, so he was dumbfounded when he knelt down.

Su Meng lowered her head beside him, and said nothing as soon as he entered the door. Su Kesheng looked sideways, only to find that she was in a trance, as if she was a little sad.

Su Kesheng's heart was instantly filled with an unknown and soft emotion. He really wanted to touch Su Meng's head and tell her that it was okay. Didn't the two elders of their family come to support her? What an unsatisfactory thing, she looks back now, there are so many family members around her.

But he can't make a sound now, and they are still being punished.

As soon as Su Jian entered the door, Su Kesheng pushed her into his room. Now there are only a few adults left in the living room, two of them are sitting on the edge of the sofa, and the other two are kneeling towards the incense burner. It's like three trials.

With a straight face, his father took the feather duster from his mother, knocked on the glass table with the end of the stick, pointed at the two of them, and said in a calm and domineering voice: "Come on, now Let's talk about the two of you—"

The author has something to say:

Su Meng: Big brother, help me.

Author: Leave little friend Su behind for such a long time, keep kneeling, don't stop.

Su Jian: Hmph.

Su Meng: ... I really gave birth to you in vain.
