The relationship between teasing and being teased

Xu Tian's home is not too close to City A. If he takes the train in the morning, he won't be able to arrive until the evening.

After getting out of the car, he sent a text message to Senior Luo to report that he was safe, and then rushed home.

When we got home, the sky was already dark, Xu Tian stood at the door hesitating for a while, and knocked on the door.

After a while, the door was opened, and Xu Tian's mother, Shen Daimei, stood in the door with light makeup on her face. It could be seen that she was a very beautiful woman when she was young.

Shen Daimei was a little surprised when she saw him: "Xu Tian? Why didn't you open the door? Don't you have the key?" Seeing the box at his feet, she was surprised and said, "I thought you wouldn't be back until two days later."

Xu Tian called them before and told them that Shen Daimei obviously forgot. He didn't explain, but just lowered his head and whispered: "I bought the ticket in advance."

Shen Daimei looked at the box next to him, and said, "I went to pick up Tongtong today. I didn't expect you to come back now. Are you okay coming here alone?"

She rolled up her sleeves, her hands were still wet, and she seemed to be cooking.

Xu Tian nodded. "I'm fine."

Shen Daimei turned sideways to let him in, and said, "Come in quickly, I've already cleaned up your room for you, it's still the same as before, you sleep with Tongtong, the house is not big, there's nothing you can do."

Xu Tian pursed his lips and said after a long time: "...Thank you."

Shen Daimei was taken aback, with a bit of bitterness on his face. "I'm your mother, tell your mother what to say thank you."

Xu Tian lowered his head and did not speak.

Shen Daimei sighed and said, "Go in and sit down, I'll cook."

Xu Tian nodded, and lifted the box into the room to put it away.

Tong Tong, who was sitting in the living room watching TV, saw him, sweetly called brother, and ran after him.

Xu Tian smiled at her, bent down and found a small palm-sized doll from the box and handed it to her. "A gift for you."

Tongtong just went to primary school a few years ago, with braids on her head, holding the little doll with bright eyes, sweetly said: "Thank you, brother."

Xu Tian smiled and patted her head, and was pulled by Tongtong to play games together.

After playing for a while, seeing Tongtong start playing alone, she walked to the kitchen.

"Mom..." He hesitated for a while and asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Shen Daimei was chopping vegetables, without turning her head, she said, "No, no, you've been in the car for a whole day, go sit and rest."

Xu Tian didn't speak, looked at the unwashed dishes on the other side, rolled up his sleeves and walked over to help.

Shen Daimei moved aside to make room for him.

After a while, there was a voice coming from outside. When Xu Tian heard this voice, his body froze.Shen Daimei said, "your uncle is back."

Xu Tian nodded, listening to the conversation between father and daughter outside, he licked his lips nervously.

Gao Hongbing is two years younger than Shen Daimei and works in the city.Shen Daimei, who was introduced by someone at the beginning, dated for a while, and later found out that she had a son before, and I felt a little conflicted in my heart, but after all, I was old at that time, and I heard that the child had been living with his grandmother. I was relieved to get married.

Shen Daimei runs the family well, and the family is usually considered harmonious. Later, he added a daughter, which made him even more satisfied. But he didn't expect that after a few years, Shen Daimei took the child over again, saying that the grandma over there was gone. Let him live here.

Gao Hongbing didn't say anything on the surface, but he was unhappy in his heart after all.Especially on the first day, when I saw Xu Tian bowing his head and cowering, he felt even more displeased, but he usually only came back from school for half a year, so it was assumed that there was no such person.

Now when I see Xu Tian, ​​I think of what my colleague said to him two days ago, about a retired old man in another department who also had a child brought by his wife, and now the child has grown up and is rushing To share the family property with him, the whole family was in a state of turmoil.

He looked at Tongtong in his arms, if the two of them fight for family property in the future, how can Tongtong, a girl, win over him?

Gao Hongbing looked at Xu Tian carefully, he hadn't seen him for half a year, his appearance was the same as before, his head was still lowered, and he looked very timid.Although timid, anyone can go crazy when it comes to money.

He had to defend.

Seeing him walking into the kitchen, Xu Tian hurriedly said hello. "Hello, Uncle."

Gao Hongbing nodded, hugged Tongtong and asked casually, "Why are you back?"

Xu Tian lowered his head and replied dryly: "It's a holiday..."

Gao Hongbing didn't say anything, he glanced at the little doll in Tongtong's hand and asked, "Tongtong, where did this come from?"

"My brother gave it to me."

Gao Hongbing's face turned dark, and he reached out to grab the doll in her arms, saying, "How can you take other people's things casually, go and return it!"

Tongtong holds the doll in her hand. "No! My brother gave it to me!"

Gao Hongbing grabbed it directly, and Tongtong burst into tears.

Gao Hong didn't care about it, he just put the doll on the table, and said to Xu Tian, ​​"You don't need to give her anything in the future, you take this back."

After finishing speaking, he hugged the crying Tongtong and walked out, coaxing: "What's so good about it, dad will buy you a bigger and better one tomorrow, it looks better than that."

Tong Tong whimpered and cried, and the sound became farther and farther away.

Xu Tian looked at the little doll on the table, but didn't speak.

Shen Daimei smiled and said: "Don't worry about them, Tongtong has a lot of toys in her hands, it's not bad, you don't need to spend money to buy them for her, just keep them for yourself."

Xu Tian lowered his head, turned around and went back to continue washing the vegetables.

When it was time to eat, Tongtong stopped crying and sat beside Gao Hongbing and ate with her head buried.

Xu Tian didn't dare to add food, he was full after eating a bowl of rice, and said, "I'm going to pack my things."

Shen Daimei said: "I'll clean it up for you later, just rest and rest."

Gao Hongbing said from the side: "It's not that I don't have hands, I can't make the bed anymore? He's dead, and you can still clean him for the rest of his life? Why don't you care so much about Tongtong's affairs."

Shen Daimei frowned and said nothing, Xu Tian said, "I'll just go."

In fact, there are not many things brought back, only a few clothes and some textbooks.Xu Tian took out all his textbooks and put them on the table, when he heard a buzzing sound, he suddenly remembered that he had muted his phone.

I quickly found it out and saw that it was Senior Luo calling, and it also showed that there were four or five missed calls.

Xu Tian walked to the bed, and as soon as he connected, Luo Shaojun's voice came over. "Xu Tian? Is that you?"

Holding the phone, Xu Tian said nervously, "It's me... Senior Luo."

Luo Shaojun let out a long breath of relief. "Why are you only answering the phone now? I almost set off to find you."

Luo Shaojun's tone became a little anxious, Xu Tian was taken aback, and murmured: "Yes, I'm sorry."

Luo Shaojun was also taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect to scare Xu Tian. After returning home for a while, his courage became weak again, and he said, "It's okay, keep your phone with you from now on, don't worry me."

"Yes." Xu Tian nodded.

Luo Shaojun smiled and said, "Can your phone receive photos? I'll send you something."

"can."

"That's good, you wait."

Xu Tian nodded, hung up the phone and stood in front of the window.This place is a bit remote, and the signal is not very good. He was worried that if he walked away, he would not be able to receive it, so he could only stand there and wait.

Shen Daimei walked in, looked at the things that had been sorted out, and came over and said: "Your uncle is a knife mouth, don't take it to heart, he just talks casually."

Xu Tian put the phone on the windowsill, glanced at the screen, nodded and said, "I know..."

Shen Daimei looked at him, and suddenly realized that she had never had a good talk with her son.It's not that she doesn't know Gao Hongbing's thoughts, but Xu Tian is also her own son, so how can she just ignore him.

Xu Tian grew up with his grandma since he was a child, and the time he spent with her was less than a year. When she took the child over from the funeral that year, she decided to make up for him, but some things were not what she wanted. It can be done, a bowl of water can be leveled even if she is willing.

"You have grown up too, and you should understand some things. Your Uncle Gao is not a bad person."

Xu Tian nodded. "I know...uncle...he is very good to me."

Shen Daimei said: "I know you are a sensible child, but don't blame your uncle."

Xu Tian lowered his head. "I know."

Shen Daimei reached out and touched his head, Gao Hongbing yelled outside, she turned and walked out.

Xu Tian stood in front of the window in a daze, and it took him a long time to raise his head.

He never blamed Shen Daimei, and of course he didn't think Gao Hongbing was bad.There are some things that even he himself can't explain clearly. In his opinion, he is already very grateful that they can take him in.

With a ding dong, the mobile phone on the window sill suddenly rang.

The screen, which had been dark for a long time, lit up again, showing that a picture had been received.

Xu Tian clicked on it, and what Luo Xuechang posted was a photo of himself, sitting on the sofa in the living room with green beans in his arms, the sun shining through the glass, making him look warm.

There is a line of words below: "This is the deposit, and I will come to you in a few days to bring the rest."

Xu Tian looked at the photo on his phone and set it as his desktop, and he could see it just by opening it, as if smiling at him.He reached out and touched Luo Shaojun's face, the corners of his mouth curled up, and two dimples appeared on his cheeks.
