The world is very bitter, you are very sweet

Before dawn, the car stopped on a small road.

The boy didn't let Xu Li be sent to his door, nor did he let Xu Li be sent to the hospital.After getting out of the car, he solemnly thanked Xu Li: "Thank you for your hard work, uncle... If there is a chance to repay you in the future, I will definitely do my best."

Xu Li waved his hand indifferently, and he was very excited in his heart for saving a child, but he didn't show it on the surface, "It's the reward for you to live well!"

The boy smiled, "I will."

He held up a pack of unopened bear biscuits to Xu Jingheng, "Thank you."

It was time to separate, Xu Jingheng finally gave him a good face, "You're welcome..."

While Xu Jingheng was inexplicably sad, the boy seemed a little happy, "Uncle, then I'm leaving."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left. Xu Li looked worried, "My child! Live well!"

The figure on the small road was very thin, and it was a little pitiful to be blown by the wind.Xu Li couldn't bear it in his heart, but the child was born wearing the same clothes as Xu Jingheng, so his heart ached even more.

I don't know what happened to the child that caused him to be covered in scars. In order to prevent him from committing suicide again, Xu Li yelled and reported his home address: "Son! Don't think about it anymore. Come to play with uncle when you have time. Uncle will accompany you to chat for a while!"

Such a loud voice, and the boy didn't go far, so he must have heard it, but he didn't respond to Xu Li.

Xu Jingheng looked at the tall and thin figure on the road getting further and further away until it disappeared.

----

After six o'clock, the sky was almost bright.A black BYD SUV was driving on the concrete road in a small village in H City.

Xu Jingheng was looking at the scenery all the way.This place is very different from City S. City S has many buildings and few trees, and the neon lights are shining. It looks very prosperous, and it is a big city in people's mouth.

Here, there are many trees and few buildings, and the most indispensable thing on the roadside is all kinds of beautiful wild flowers and unknown flower trees.

Not bustling, the air and scenery are good.

It didn't take long for them to drive into the village and they were almost home when a man ran out of a dilapidated house ahead and ran towards Xu Li's car, bumping into Xu Li's car as if hitting porcelain.

Xu Li braked in time to avoid knocking the man into the air.

It was a man wearing shabby clothes, the fabric on the clothes was beginning to turn yellow, and there were still many dust and oil stains.He was wearing a pair of army green liberation shoes with several holes on his feet.

This person's hair is very long, and the ends of the hair hang on his shoulders, and it is a little curly.His whole head was a mess, and his hair was shaggy and dirty, with a few leaves mixed in.

is a beggar.

The beggar's house was also crooked, and even one of the two gates was broken.

Xu Jingheng was taken aback by the beggar, but Xu Li's expression was very calm.

Xu Jingheng looked at the beggar and asked Xu Li: "Dad, what is he doing? Touching porcelain?"

"No."

Xu Li sighed with a sad face.

The beggar ran to the driver's window, pressed his hands and a bloodless face against the window, and stared intently into the window.

He looked at Xu Li, his eyes changed from anticipation to disappointment.Through Xu Li, he looked into the car again and saw the empty trunk. He opened his mouth but couldn't speak, his eyes slowly turned red.

Xu Li lowered the car window and said in a low voice, "He...hasn't come to pick you up yet?"

Seeing that there was no one he was looking for in the car, the beggar limped away and yelled twice: "Brother! Brother!"

He ran into that dilapidated house again, laying down on the threshold, resting his elbows on the ground and his face on his hands, sticking his head out from time to time, muttering: "Brother..."

Xu Jingheng understood somewhat, "Dad, is he looking for someone?"

"Well... don't move, I'll go down for a while."

Xu Li got out of the car, took a lot of food from the trunk and brought it to the door of the beggar, but the beggar didn't seem to notice, looking down at a black rope in the palm of his hand.

He held the black rope with both hands like a baby.

Xu Li didn't speak to him, and got into the car after giving the things.

"Dad, do you know him?"

"I know him, from a village. He was very popular when he was young, with good grades and obedient." Xu Li started the car and said casually: "Heng, when you see him in the future, don't be afraid of him, and don't be afraid of him." scold him."

Xu Jingheng was speechless, "Why should I scold him?"

He complained: "Father... are you so worried about your son?"

Xu Li smiled and shook his head.

Xu Jingheng flicked Xu Li's arm, "I don't know why."

He thought for a while, then asked again: "But why did he become a fool?"

Xu Li looked at him seriously, "I really want to know?"

"Yes I do."

Xu Lidan said: "Because he was with a man, but then separated again."

"what?"

Xu Li shook his head casually, "You don't understand this yet."

The car continued to drive forward, but stopped after a few meters.Xu Li suddenly stared at Xu Jingheng seriously, "Heng, Dad has something to tell you."

Xu Jingheng was stunned for two seconds, but soon understood, "You don't need to tell me, I won't be with men, don't worry."

A smile suddenly appeared on Xu Li's face. He lay on the back chair, put his hands behind his head and looked ahead, "What Dad wants to say is exactly the opposite of what you think Dad wants to say."

Xu Jingheng was a little puzzled, and looked at Xu Li in puzzlement.Xu Li looked at him in a blink of an eye, and said slowly: "Most people in the world will definitely meet at least one person who makes their hearts fall in love. Of course you will have one, and if you don't have it now, you will have it in the future."

Xu Jingheng's heart trembled, and his fingers curled up slightly.

Xu Li went on to say: "The thing about love is the least of your parents' control. Your parents just raised you and became one of the important people in your life. Your life still belongs to you, and you are entitled to be yourself." Take control and make decisions, and your emotions and actions can also follow your own preferences without restraint."

Xu Jingheng lowered his head, his eyelashes fluttering slowly.Xu Li continued: "Heng, if you have someone you like in the future, you must be with her (him). The idiot brother is not pitiful because he likes men, but because he can't be with the person he likes. It's just pathetic."

----

The car stopped in front of a two-story building. This building is quite new, and it is a unique and out of place existence in the dilapidated village.

Xu Jingheng opened the car door first and walked out. The temperature in the morning was still a bit cold, and he felt a refreshing breath as soon as he got out.

He felt very strange and friendly to this small town.He has never been here before, and it is a stranger, but this is his hometown, and it is kind.

Because of the strangeness and kindness, he felt a strong sense of excitement in his heart.

He is about to start a new life in his hometown with the look he likes.

No bad guys disturb his good life.

Xu Li went to the back of the car and opened the trunk to start packing. Xu Jingheng also walked over to carry it together. Even though he didn't sleep all night, he still felt full of strength.

There seemed to be something moving on the door in the building, it was the sound of unlocking the door.Xu Jingheng turned his head while holding the big bag, and saw an old man in a black Tang suit open the door.

The old man first smiled at Xu Jingheng, and said in a hearty voice, "I mean, I heard the car stop, and you are back."

"Uncle Three."

Xu Li greeted the old man, but Xu Jingheng didn't say anything, because he didn't know the old man in front of him, and he didn't remember that this person appeared in his childhood life.

Xu Jingheng could see clearly that the old man in front of him was not the gray-haired one he thought, and his body looked tough, and he didn't even have the crutches he imagined.

Seeing Xu Jingheng standing there in a daze, Xu Li elbowed him beside him, reminding him, "It's called Third Grandpa."

"Three grandpas."

Xu Jingheng called out, but he didn't have any expression or emotion.

Grandpa Xu smiled, "Jingheng, you're back."

Grandpa Xu walked down the steps at the door and walked towards Xu Jingheng, his face wrinkled with a smile.

He put his hand on Xu Jingheng's shoulder and squeezed it, and said kindly: "Jingheng is taller than Dad, don't you remember the third grandpa?"

Xu Jingheng was stunned, he didn't remember this person's face, nor had he heard this person's voice.

His grandparents passed away when he was three or four years old. After his death, his family moved to City S. Only Xu Li would come back every few years. Ran Xu and Xu Jingheng never came back.

Grandpa Xu and Xu Jingheng's grandfather are blood brothers. Grandpa Xu has no descendants, and Xu Li has no parents. The uncle and nephew live like this.

Xu Jingheng didn't answer that question. After Xu Li exchanged pleasantries with Grandpa Xu, the three of them moved their luggage into the house. After the meal, the three of them started to clean the two-story building.

The whole house was cleaned up that night, Xu Jingheng and the third grandfather slept in a room on the first floor, and Xu Li lived in the upstairs room.

Xu Jingheng lay on the bed, looking at the stars through the window, feeling at ease.

He feels that everything here is very good, the air is very good, and the environment is also very good.In his heart, this place is better than City S, the big city that everyone yearns for.

He thought that he would toss and turn all night in a new environment and a new space, but he fell asleep after a long time last night, and he slept until dawn without waking up suddenly at night , I didn't even have the nightmare that had been haunting me before.

Subconsciously, Xu Jingheng knew that he had arrived at a place that he thought was very safe.He is no longer afraid of what will happen tomorrow, because those who bullied him are neither in front of him nor around him, so it is as if they do not exist.

Non-existence is non-existence, and non-existence means no fear.

In fact, it was never the place in S City that made him afraid and terrified, but the people in their school.He didn't like to talk, he didn't like to laugh, and he was either expressionless or frowning all day long... It wasn't really depression or withdrawn, he knew very well in his heart that it was just because of unhappiness and disgust.

So when he changed places and the people he hated and feared disappeared, he felt safe, so he got better soon.

Xu Jingheng sat up on the bed refreshed, and just about to get out of bed, a notification sound came from the phone that a text message was coming.

He opened it and saw that it was the number of city S, with four simple words: Haven't been discharged from the hospital yet?

I don't know who it is, and I don't bother to ask or answer.He deleted the text message, turned off his phone and went out.
