After a brief wash, Xu Li lay on an unfamiliar bed, with a slight smell of mothballs in his quilt. He guessed that Uncle Yang's house usually had no guests, and spare sheets and quilts were always kept in the cabinet.

After turning off the lights, the moonlight peeped through the window, making the curtains slightly bright.Everything around him felt strange, but Uncle Yang tried his best to help him settle down, Xu Li remembered what Teacher Qin said before school, and swallowed all his emotions.

Thinking about it in a daze, Xu Li fell asleep.

He has always had the habit of getting up early, and his biological clock always rings on time at six o'clock. If there is no accident, he will go to the breakfast shop near the community to buy breakfast at this time, and put a copy at home. When grandma wakes up, she doesn't have to make breakfast herself. .

It was just dawn at this time, Xu Li thought about it, and thought it would be better to wash up early, so as not to be crowded later.

At [-]:[-], he changed back into his clothes and gently knocked on the door of the bathroom, but there was no response after a long time. Sure enough, there was no one there, and he breathed a sigh of relief.The toothbrush used yesterday was leaning against a glass, and there were all kinds of sundries on the sink, including facial cleanser, razor, and even hairpins. A bright strawberry was embedded at the end of the metal wire, like a real strawberry. Xu Li guessed that it should belong to Yang Jiayu.

He gently turned on the faucet, took a glass of water, and began to brush his teeth slowly.

After about half a minute, he took a sip of water and saw a person in the mirror.

I saw Yang Jiayou broke into the bathroom sleepily, half-closed his eyes, and pushed his elbow back to the door of the house. The sound of the door closing echoed in the air, shaking people's backs, and then Yang Jiayou stood by the toilet as if no one else was there, and the sound of dripping water continued for a while.

Before Xu Li finished washing, Yang Jiayou turned his face away, shivering in fright, and quickly put on his pants, "Who are you? You want to scare people to death in the morning?!"

Xu Li quickly turned his back to him, "I'm almost done washing up, so I'm going out now."

Yang Jiayou scratched his head, only then remembered that there was one more person in the family, he frowned and said, "Please hurry up."

Xu Li washed his face in a hurry, his chin was still dripping, he wanted to find a towel to wipe his face, he looked around and found that the towel he used last night was missing.

Yang Jiayou had already started brushing his teeth, Xu Li thought about it and decided to go out.

As soon as he opened the doorknob of the bathroom with his right hand, Xu Li was suddenly startled by the person in front of him. He saw Yang Jiayu wearing a plush rabbit pajamas, and glanced at himself angrily. Soon, her eyes stopped on her brother Yang Jiayou, "You Woke me up early in the morning!"

Xu Li remembered that Yang Jiayu's room was next to him, and it must have been because the door was closed just now.

Yang Jiayou didn't turn his head, and looked at his sister through the mirror, "That can't be my fault, who told me that there is no bathroom in my bedroom, and I have to pee urgently, so I can only use the public bathroom." Toothpaste froth was floating around his mouth, and his voice sounded a little fuzzy .

Yang Jiayu held his breath, and said after a long while, "Even in normal times, you are so noisy. It's fine to play table tennis against the wall. Brushing your teeth every morning is the same as brushing your shoes."

It seems that the two of them have had a grudge for a long time, and Xu Li stood aside in a dilemma.

After Yang Jiayou finished washing in a hurry, he looked at Yang Jiayu coldly, "All right, I'll change rooms with you, and I promise not to disturb you every day."

"Why should I trade with you!" Yang Jiayu said angrily, "The walls of your room are full of football marks."

Yang Jiayou was irritated, "Do you think the whole family has to let you go?" He said, walking towards Yang Jiayu, Xu Li subconsciously stood in front of her, "You, what are you doing?"

Yang Jiayou said: "It's none of your business, you get up."

Yang Jiayu was a head shorter than Xu Li, and he didn't flinch in the slightest. "I'm telling the truth. I have to endure the noise you make every day. No matter how many times I say it, you never change it."

"Did you talk to your brother like that?" Yang Jiayou glanced at her, and then remembered that his mother threw chopsticks last night. , that’s why you bullied me like that.”

Yang Jiayou stretched out his hand and pushed Xu Li away, but Xu Li stood still, his voice was very soft: "Say something well."

Yang Jiayou turned a deaf ear to it. The more he thought about it, the more wronged he became, and his eyes were red: "The best room in the house is yours, okay, you are a girl, I let you, I don't care about you like you. When I play table tennis, you are in Going to sleep? Now I will be scolded even for brushing my teeth, anyway, no matter what happens, it is always me who is wrong, and you are always right!"

Xu Li subconsciously looked back at Yang Jiayu, thinking that she would cry like yesterday, but at this moment she was staring at Yang Jiayou stubbornly, without any fear on her face, "Who told you yesterday that I have a problem here?" said After finishing, she imitated Yang Jiayou and pointed to her temple.

Yang Jiayou was about to say something, but was interrupted by a voice not far away: "What's the noise so early in the morning?"

Wearing house clothes, Xu Ying walked towards the three children, and found that his son and daughter were standing on both sides of Xu Li, like two bulls fighting. She probably guessed something, it was nothing more than the two of them were having a temper tantrum again.

Xu Ying patted Yang Jiayu's shoulder and said softly, "Jiayu, go back to your room."

Yang Jiayu took a deep breath and said, "I won't go back unless Yang Jiayou apologizes to me."

"Look at her—" Yang Jiayou looked at his mother, his face was flushed, and he gasped, "She also said that I was an older brother, and she always yelled at me, why should I be an older brother?"

Xu Ying frowned: "What's going on with you two? Huh?"

The air suddenly became quiet.

Seeing that the children were silent, Xu Ying looked at Xu Li and said in a very soft voice, "Xu Li, tell me, what's wrong with them?"

Yang Jiayou looked at Xu Li, a flash of sincerity flashed in his eyes, as if silently begging him to defend himself, after all, he just got up early to go to the toilet, not as serious as his sister said.

Yang Jiayu also stared at him, as if he had a chance to win.

Xu Li was in a dilemma, and swallowed hard, not wanting to intensify the conflict, "It was me who woke up Jiayu too loudly in the morning."

A flash of disappointment flashed in Yang Jiayou's eyes.

"It's not him, it's brother." Yang Jiayu said eagerly.

Yang Jiayou looked at his younger sister angrily, and was extremely disappointed in this situation. In this family, especially at the critical point, no one had ever said a word for him. Turning a blind eye to grievances, she will only make big things into small things, and small things into nothing.Although Dad is reasonable, he is usually busy with work and rarely participates in the minutiae of the family.

Xu Ying probably understood a little bit, it was nothing more than Yang Jiayou waking Yang Jiayu up early, and it happened that Xu Li was also in the bathroom, and the two brothers and sisters couldn't stop arguing, so Xu Li had no choice but to take responsibility and try to resolve the conflict quickly.

Last night, her husband Yang Zhenhua communicated with her very late. In all fairness, she also did something wrong, but housework is turbulent, and right and wrong are entangled in it. Sometimes it is difficult to maintain absolute fairness.

She thought for a while, bent down, and said to her son and daughter: "Jiayou, it was my fault that my mother threw chopsticks at you yesterday. I apologize to you." She looked at Yang Jiayu again, "My brother is a boy, and he is usually sloppy. One point, unlike you who are afraid of noise, Xu Li came to the house recently, among other things, should the two of you learn to live in peace and not make Xu Li so difficult? Look at the two of you, Xu Li will be blamed for the quarrel gone."

The two brothers and sisters stopped talking, and they both felt a little bit wrong.

"Okay, I don't want to talk too much, what should I do?" She stretched out her hand and smoothed Yang Jiayu's long hair, "Jiayu, you have to respect your brother, you can't call him by his name like this, understand? "

Yang Jiayu lowered his head, his brows were heavy, and he nodded after a while.

Yang Jiayou's expression was a little better than before, but he didn't seem to appreciate it very much. He was thinking, if Xu Li wasn't present today, his mother would definitely be the same as before.He has seen the scene of defending his sister too many times.

Seeing Yang Jiayou returned to her room, Xu Ying said: "Jiayu, you go wash up too, it's getting late, you have to go to school later."

"Yes." Yang Jiayu obediently agreed.

Xu Li was the only one left in the corridor, and Xu Ying said apologetically, "I'm sorry, there are a lot of troubles at home, which must have made you feel uncomfortable."

Xu Li raised his eyes, his brows relaxed, "No, Aunt Xu, I should thank you."

Xu Ying felt distressed for this child's sensibility. She guessed that Xu Li must have suffered a lot of grievances to be so sensible. Thinking of this, she felt guilty for her thoughts yesterday, "Xu Li, no matter what happened, the things in your family We will help you solve it together, Uncle Yang is your father's best friend, although there are many conflicts and unhappiness in our family, but Auntie assures you that she will not make things difficult for you."

With tears in Xu Li's eyes, he tried his best to smile, "I know, thank you."

"You're welcome." Xu Ying's face became more relaxed, and her tone was brisk: "You also go and clean up, and Uncle Yang will personally send you off later."

Xu Li quickly said, "No need, I'll just take the bus."

"It's a bit far from your school. I'm afraid it's too late to take the bus. Uncle Yang has something to do, so it's a good way to see you off."

"What about Jiayou and Jiayu?"

"They are in the same school. Jiayu is in the elementary school, and Jiayou is in the junior high school. There is a driver to take them to school. Don't worry."

Hearing what Aunt Xu said, Xu Licai felt a little relieved, he didn't want to be caught between their brothers and sisters, making the already rigid relationship even more difficult.

But after such a commotion, Yang Jiayu and Yang Jiayou calmed down a bit.

The two of them were unusually quiet during breakfast, and they didn't bicker as usual.Xu Li sat beside Yang Jiayu, took a sip of milk, and looked at Yang Jiayu quietly from the corner of his eye. He felt that as long as there were no irritating incidents, Yang Jiayu looked no different from a normal person. Why did Yang Jiayou say that Yang Jiayu had a problem?

Looking at Yang Jiayou again, he was eating toast in a dull manner, poking an egg with a fork, as if expressing his anger silently.Xu Li seemed to understand something. He guessed that Aunt Xu was usually busy with housework and did not let the nanny participate in the daily diet, probably because she was worried about entrusting these tasks to other people.If Yang Jiayou's words are correct, Aunt Xu is even less likely to ask someone to take care of Yang Jiayu.

For the sake of the family, Xu Ying can be said to have made sacrifices. There are too many things, and it is inevitable that she cannot take care of very subtle emotions, just like the matter of eating green beans yesterday. She would not know that the reason why a young child resists green beans is because I was almost choked, after all, if everything is so inquisitive, life will not be able to go on.

In life, how can everything go smoothly.
