The Plow

"A serving of noodles with scallion oil and a small bowl of chicken soup, I think this little day is so beautiful, and I will never think about it for the rest of my life!"

Ling Shu sighed contentedly, and leaned against the back of the chair while supporting his stomach.

Yue Dingtang, who also put down his chopsticks, was much more refined, sitting upright with his eyes closed, as if he was still savoring the delicious food just now.

Ling Shu clicked his tongue twice: "Old Yue, sometimes I really feel that we are not middle school classmates, but elders and juniors."

Yue Dingtang: "Then why didn't I see you calling me Dad?"

The tea that Ling Shu had just swallowed almost spit out.

"You think beautiful!"

Yue Dingtang quickly picked up the napkin on the table and covered his face, leaving the tea on the opposite side empty and splashing on the napkin.

"Don't talk when you eat and don't sleep, isn't that what you were taught in the Ling family when you were young?"

Ling Shu choked and coughed twice, and had to drink another big mouthful of tea to suppress his shock.

"You will also say that it happened when you were a child. If you still pay attention to it when you go out, the body will be cold!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yue Dingtang put his index finger on his mouth and gestured in a low voice, and then he remembered that there were others at home.

The little boy who was picked up by them and temporarily settled down was sleeping on the sofa with the quilt in his arms. He was quiet, with a faint hint of the beauty of the He family in his eyes.

Just, why is it called why?

Does He You'an feel that this child has a rough life experience and was born with suffering, or does he feel that all living beings are suffering and there are no exceptions?

This name is really too miserable.

"Change his name." Ling Shu said, "Miss He knows it, and she must also hope that he can have a new start."

The word "why bother" should be sealed with the conclusion of this matter.

Yue Dingtang had no objection: "How about Li Xin?"

Ling Shu didn't expect that he would have a conspiracy so soon.

It can be seen that the surname Yue originally agreed with his opinion, but he refused to say it first, which is really treacherous.

"Which stand, which heart?"

Yue Dingtang said: "Establish morality, establish words, and establish heart. Establish heart for the world, establish life for the people, inherit the unique learning for the past saints, and bring peace to the prosperous age. Words are the voice of the heart, so establish the heart. The brothers and sisters of the He family are strong Zhengzheng, I hope that when he grows up, he can do the same, act with his heart and live up to his elders."

Ling Shu froze for a moment, the name was too big.

"Then why isn't it called Iron Bones?" He said out of nowhere.

Yue Dingtang: ...

Ling Shu raised his hands: "OK, you are a great professor. You have the final say. You are called Lixin and He Lixin. They seem to be good, but we are neither married nor have any experience in raising children as to how to arrange this child. , isn't it appropriate to take him in?"

Yue Dingtang had already thought about this question on the way back.

"I have a colleague, surnamed Li, who teaches Chinese. They have been married for many years. They had a daughter who died of illness three years ago. Now they are getting older and suffering from no biological children. I can ask them. They must be Very happy."

Ling Shu: "How is he?"

Yue Dingtang: "He is kind and optimistic, eager to help others, and so is his wife. He Lixin should be able to rest assured that he is raised by them."

"Then he should stay at my house for a few days. My sister has always wanted a child. She will be very happy to see him."

After Ling Shu finished speaking, he yawned.

"I'm a little sleepy after I'm full. I've been tired all day. Let me take a nap with you. You can call me after half an hour, lest I have to go back and be told by my sister that I can't sleep for a long time..."

As the conversation went on, the voice became softer, and it was already a little dazed.

Yue Dingtang pushed him.

"Go to sleep on the sofa."

Ling Shu commanded and moved one by one, got up and sleepwalked as if drifting to the edge of the sofa, sat down next to He Lixin, tilted his head back, and fell unconscious immediately.

He Lixin was awakened by his movement, but he just rubbed his eyes and looked at them, then closed his eyes and curled up beside Ling Shu to continue sleeping.

This child is very sensitive to the outside world, and has a speech disorder. Since he left with them, he has only answered Ling Shu a few times, and now he is willing to sleep peacefully by Ling Shu's side, which shows that he still trusts Ling Shu in his heart.

But in terms of Lingshu's exuberant love luck, being able to coax the child doesn't seem to be a big deal.

Uncle Zhou walked over with the blanket in his arms, walked lightly, pointed at Ling Shu, then looked at Yue Dingtang, and asked silently.

Yue Dingtang nodded, and Uncle Zhou carried the quilt over to cover the two of them.

The two heads, one big and one small, cuddled together, exposed outside the blanket, inexplicably harmonious.

Uncle Zhou suddenly looked towards Yue Dingtang and smiled.

Yue Dingtang was puzzled.

Uncle Zhou smiled and said, "Fourth Young Master, I saw you laughing, so I followed you."

Laughed yourself?

Yue Dingtang touched the corner of his mouth, and found an inconspicuous curvature.

Uncle Zhou said in a low voice: "Since Xiaoling came to our house, this place has become much more lively, and you have laughed a lot. You should be smiling so much. Don't be like the Eldest and Second Young Masters, keeping your faces sullen all day long."

Yue Dingtang curled his lips: "He can always stir up trouble, and it's too late for me to have a headache. Even if I smile, it's a wry smile."

The dead duck has a stubborn mouth and duplicity.Uncle Zhou said silently.

The Yue Dingtang he knew may have looked like a child of the same age in middle school, but after graduating and going abroad, Uncle Zhou hadn't seen him for a long time. When they met again, he found that Yue Dingtang suddenly became a stable and mature young man.

It was only when facing Ling Shu that he would show his displeasure, smile helplessly, and even respond verbally.

Uncle Zhou sometimes thinks that as the three brothers of the Yue family grow up and start their own businesses, and gradually drift away, the eldest and the second are away from home all year round, and they don't know what they are busy with. Their figures seem to blend into this turbulent big Shanghai. , sometimes clear, sometimes blurred.On a certain day when Yue Dingtang returned home before he finished his studies, Uncle Zhou also witnessed a fierce quarrel between the eldest Yue Dingqin and the second eldest Yue Dingjin, and since then the two met less often at home.

That is to say, after Yue Dingtang returned to teach in the country, the second child, Yue Dingjin, would occasionally come back for a meal, but there was almost no family reunion and laughter. The husband is abroad.

Until Ling Shu appeared.

Seeing him, Uncle Zhou felt like rediscovering a corner of the lively and harmonious Yue family in the past. All the nostalgia about the past had nowhere to rest, but he found solace in Ling Shu.

Uncle Zhou knew that Yue Dingtang must have treated Ling Shu special if he didn't say anything.

What's more, he knows that the fourth young master's curiosity is actually no less than that of Xiao Ling, otherwise he wouldn't hit it off and cause trouble everywhere.

Ling Shu slept until dawn.

At dawn, he woke up on the bed and found that He Lixin beside him had already woken up, not noisy, hugging the quilt as if observing him.

The more Ling Shu looked at it, the more he felt that this child not only had eyebrows and eyes, but even his appearance had the charm of He Youan.

It's a pity that He Youan's smile is like a soft wave, but this child doesn't know how long it takes to laugh.

"Why bother, do you still remember your name? Your aunt said she usually called you Aku."

After returning, Ling Shu talked to him a lot. Although the child gradually became less afraid of strangers, he rarely responded.

This time is no exception.

Ling Shu didn't wait for him to respond, and continued: "Why is this name not good? We don't want you to suffer in the future, so we chose a new name for you, He Lixin. Before you go to your new home and meet your new father and new mother, please follow me first." But, I have a sister who likes children very much, especially you who are so beautiful and obedient, come back and live with me for a few days, okay?"

He Lixin still didn't make a sound.

Ling Shu stroked his head.

"Your biological father and your aunt are righteous men. They didn't mean to abandon you on purpose. It's just that there are many helplessness in this world. They hope to use their weak power to change the world."

He Lixin seemed to understand but half understood, but hummed lightly.

When Yue Dingtang came in, Ling Shu had already dressed the child, and walked out of the room with him in his arms.

"Don't stay for two more days?"

Uncle Zhou was a little bit reluctant.

Even if Xiaotong doesn't like to talk, after all, there are more people in the family, so it's more lively.

Ling Shu chuckled: "It's not that I don't want to live, it's that my sister is back, I have to go back and report, otherwise the skin will be peeled off! What's the purpose, she won't be too violent!"

Yue Dingtang squinted at him.

It turned out to be a shield idea, how can I say that this person suddenly became active when he returned home.

He was going to school, so he asked the driver to take Lingshu home along the way.

From a distance, the two saw Ling Yao sweeping snow in front of the house.

It snowed again last night, and it was not too small.

There is a thick layer everywhere, and the sun does not come out. There are already children playing snowball fights in the distance, but it means that it is inconvenient for adults to travel. In some places, even cars cannot drive, and the two have to get down. Walk.

Ling Yao raised his head, and when he saw Ling Shu coming back, his eyebrows were erected and he was about to go into a fit, but his eyes fell on the little boy who was being held by Ling Shu.

"Where did this kid come from?"

Ling Shu said: "Sister, I'm back to apologize."

When had Ling Yao seen him so honest, he couldn't help feeling suspicious when he heard the words.

"What's the crime? Where did this kid come from?"

As soon as Ling Shu heard this, he knew that his sister had misunderstood.

"Sister, now that the child is so old, I can't hide it any longer. He is my illegitimate child living outside."

Yue Dingtang: ...

Ling Yao's almond eyes widened in an instant, looking at him, then at He Lixin, and after a long time, he stretched out his finger and pointed at Ling Shu, and after a long time, you couldn't figure out why.

"You can't lie to me, can you?"

Ling Yao couldn't believe it, and looked at Yue Dingtang again.

"Dingtang, tell me, is it true? Where did he get the child? He's still so old!"

Yue Dingtang smiled: "He lied to you, this is our friend's child."

Without saying a word, Ling Yao picked up the broom in hand and whipped it towards Ling Shu.

The latter was also nimble and ran away with his legs free. This posture and figure were obviously cultivated under long-term oppression.

"I'll give you skin! I'll give you skin!"

The two chased and beat each other in the yard, Ling Shu accidentally slipped forward, was whipped by Ling Yao's broom tail on his buttocks, and immediately groaned.

"Sister, take it easy, I was wrong! I was wrong! Isn't this a little joke with you!"

"Is this something you can joke about! I almost got sick from your fright!"

After finally waiting for Ling Yao to breathe a sigh of relief after being tired from chasing and beating, Ling Shu cautiously came over with a smile.

"His name is He Lixin, and he will stay with us for a few days, perhaps ten or twenty days."

Ling Yao frowned: "Where are his parents?"

Ling Shu: "I can't find it for now, no, let's settle down at our house first."

Ling Yao: "Are you out of good intentions again? Last year, you brought back an old man from the countryside, saying he was homeless, but he was blackmailed and sent away after spending a lot of money. Didn't he learn a lesson? "

Ling Shu felt that it would be embarrassing to be criticized in front of Yue Dingtang, so he hurriedly helped him in and interrupted him with an excuse.

"Let's talk in the room, let's talk in the room!"

Ling Yao didn't show any signs of stopping.

"It's all right now, first the old man, then the child, do you want to wait for the gang of beggars to come and blackmail you, and then gather a house full of children and grandchildren?!"

Yue Dingtang couldn't help laughing.

Ling Shu gave him a hard look.

"Old Yue, Chief Yue, Brother Dingtang, please testify for me, it's really not this time!"

Ling Yao didn't like this: "Dingtang, don't help him whitewash. He does this kind of thing all day long. When others are policemen, they can always make a lot of money. He is good. He takes it out every time. Let me tell you, our family can’t afford to take care of this child, so don’t just throw him at my place again, you’ll be the shopkeeper, and I’ll have to take care of it!”

The more she spoke, the more angry she became, and she raised her voice.

He Lixin seemed to be frightened, and hid behind Ling Shu not daring to come out.

Ling Shu had to tell half the truth.

"This child is really the child of an old friend of ours. His parents are gone. The remaining aunt, who is our friend, also died young. There is no one to take care of him at home. We are planning to find a home for him. A reliable family will adopt him, before that, we will take care of him first."

Ling Yao was dubious and looked at Yue Dingtang.

"Is what he said true?"

Ling Shu was so angry that he fell back, thinking that who is your real brother, you will believe what he says, but you won't believe what I say.

Fortunately, the one surnamed Yue still has a conscience.

"Yes, this friend has a very good relationship with us. Before he died, he specially entrusted the child to us, and asked us to help him find a good family. I am already looking for it. Ling Shu said that you like children, so he brought him Come here, if it's inconvenient, it's okay to let him live in Yue's house first."

Ling Yao turned from anger to joy: "I didn't say it earlier, if it was really your friend's child, I would naturally help. This child is also pitiful. He lost his parents at a young age, but he has good-looking features."

She blamed Ling Shu again: "I made you so skinny at the beginning that you scared the children."

Ling Shu felt greatly wronged: "You don't believe me when I tell you!"

Ling Yao: "That's natural. I don't believe a word that comes out of your mouth. Fortunately, Dingtang is there, otherwise today's misunderstanding will be big."

Ling Shu felt deeply that one favored the other and almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and couldn't help shouting June Feishuang.

"Just be partial to him, and count the money for him when he sells you one day!"

Ling Yao didn't hesitate: "That's better than being sold by you!"

Ling Shu: ...

Yue Ding and Tang Jue thought that if he didn't follow suit again, Ling Shu might die of anger on the spot.

But watching Ling Shu being turned around with anger is another very interesting little pleasure.
