Two Continents

Chapter 10 Courage in Youth

Bai Che, who was drunk, was helped back to the "palace" by Tang Ai as if he was serving Lafayette, but this Lafayette still had his own ideas. He had just been placed on the sofa and hadn't settled down yet, so he took advantage of Tang Ai to change clothes. When Kaifeng went to mix honey water for him, he swayed upstairs by himself.

Bang!A loud noise came from the upstairs bathroom, and Ji Kaifeng was so startled that the spoon used to stir the honey water shook, and he quickly put down the spoon and rushed upstairs.Ji Kaifeng broke through the door, and saw his brother sitting in the bathtub wearing a soaked shirt with his waist propped up and his teeth gritted. He didn't forget to pull the shower curtain to block Ji Kaifeng's view.

"..." Ji Kaifeng instantly felt that alcohol was simply a special-effect revealing drug, and his brother's hidden side was finally revealed in his drunken state.

Tang Ai, who had a long reflex arc, followed up: "Ache, did you fall?!"

"No."

Ji Kaifeng realized that his brother still has a strange skill point, which is hard-talking.

A misty voice came from the bathtub covered by the shower curtain: "Are you going to stand here and watch after I take a shower? What should you do?"

After getting drunk, he talked too much, Ji Kaifeng silently recorded this in the small notebook in his heart.

There was nothing between Tang Ai and Bai Che. Tang Ai lifted the curtain and said, "My ancestor! Who took a bath with clothes on?! I told you not to get water on your back! Also, after drinking Can't take a bath! I didn't watch you for a quarter of an hour!" Bai Che pulled the curtain to cover himself again: "It's all stained! Can you let me finish washing?"

"..." Tang Ai pushed Ji Kaifeng out together, "Hey! Let him be stubborn, anyway, he will be the one who hurts!"

Ji Kaifeng was worried, so he stood guard at the bathroom door.

Sure enough, after taking a shower, Bai Che had to obediently lie on the bed and let Ji Kaifeng apply medicine to him. Half of the injury on his back healed, and the other half was scabbed. After soaking in the water, it became red and swollen again.

Tang Ai sneaked into the room to take a look, said that if you don't die, you won't die, and then safely threw his buddy to Ji Kaifeng's care.

Bai Che fell asleep almost as soon as he touched the bed, Ji Kaifeng packed up the cotton swabs and put away the medicine, followed by turning off the light and getting into bed.It was snowing at night, reflecting a little light from the street lamps into the room, Ji Kaifeng quietly listened to the rustling of heavy snow outside and being slapped on the window by the cold wind, staring at his brother with a little bit of light.There was still a little alcohol smell in Bai Che's breath, mixed with the faint smell of pine needles in the room, making Ji Kaifeng feel extraordinarily peaceful.

His brother provided him with a warm place to live and hot food, which were already very good compared to his shivering childhood, this time he didn't dare to ask for more.

The next day, Bai Che was in good spirits, and his breakfast was changed from oatmeal soaked in milk to rice balls with fermented rice. Bai Che also fried an egg for Ji Kaifeng and Tang Ai.

But Bai Che didn't forget that he still had business to do today, so he drove the two boys into the car after cleaning up the dishes.When they arrived at Uncle Yuan's house, Bai Nana was having breakfast with Mrs. Yuan, and when she saw her brother, she turned her head and became a little princess. She was very wronged that her brother left her with Uncle Yuan while she was sleeping.

"Brother hates it!" Bai Nana became more and more aggrieved as she thought about it, and she cried aggrievedly.

Bai Che and Tang Ai frantically began to coax their sister.

Uncle Yuan came to the living room and looked at the juniors with kind eyes, bringing some laughter to the quiet morning after the heavy snow.Tang Ai and Bai Che tried their best to coax Bai Nana into tears. Madam Yuan took Bai Nana to the backyard to play with snow.

At this moment, the three juniors finally sat down with Uncle Yuan in the living room. Ji Kaifeng was wary of Uncle Yuan, and stayed silently beside Bai Che.

Uncle Yuan made a cup of herbal tea for each of the juniors, and the teenagers quickly took it with both hands.Uncle Yuan took a sip of tea and asked with a smile, "Did you have a good time last night?"

Last night was really hard to put into words... Bai Che thought about it. Uncle Yuan might not know what Lei Ge's game is, so he decided to answer honestly: "I went to a lot of friends yesterday, and it was a bit too much..."

A fetal chrysanthemum floated to the mouth of the teacup, Uncle Yuan picked it up gently with a small porcelain spoon, and said, "All the policemen who passed by have gone."

"..." Bai Che thought that Uncle Yuan really knew everything.

Uncle Yuan raised his eyes to see the nervousness of the two teenagers, and smiled: "Don't be nervous, Xiaocheng finally found out about it last night when he asked me to find a way."

Tang Ai interjected and asked, "Did anyone get arrested last night?"

Uncle Yuan said: "Three or four children, I asked their parents to criticize and educate them, recorded the files, and then arranged to do community voluntary work. Fortunately, you and Xiao Che are children who make me feel more at ease, but you should pay attention. You can't drink alcohol until you reach the legal age."

Bai Che nodded: "I remember Uncle Yuan."

Uncle Yuan seemed to be in a better mood, so Bai Che decided to seize this opportunity to say, "Uncle Yuan, there is one thing I want to confess to you." Bai Che deleted the exciting experience of his injury, and told Uncle Yuan the other truth. Clearly, when Uncle Yuan cast his gaze over, Ji Kaifeng still couldn't help his heart skip a beat.

Ji Kaifeng looked at Uncle Yuan without saying a word.

Uncle Yuan continued to say some sympathetic words, but it was not the main point. Uncle Yuan just went around in circles and didn't give a correct answer.Bai Che listened and waited for Uncle Yuan to finish speaking, and then took the initiative to say: "Uncle Yuan, I understand the responsibilities involved in this, and I have thought about it one by one, so I came to ask you for help."

Uncle Yuan took a sip from his teacup, then slowly put it down, and said to Tang Ai: "Little Tang, I keep some peppers and other fruits and vegetables grown by myself in the backyard, you take Xiaofeng to find your Auntie Yuan and collect some for you to take. "

Tang Ai waved his hand: "Uncle Yuan is so kind!"

"..." Bai Che discovered that Tang Ai only had a [-]% tacit understanding with himself, and the others often short-circuited like a nervous breakdown, "Go, we will accept Uncle Yuan's wishes."

Ji Kaifeng didn't want to go, he was afraid that something might happen this time.However, he couldn't resist Tang Ai's tugging, and was dragged away from the living room.They found Aunt Yuan, who was looking after Bai Nana, in the backyard. Aunt Yuan liked having children to play with, and it would make their big house, which was empty because their son went to study in other cities, liven up.

Compared to the hut where Bai Che lived, the backyard of their house was big enough. Although it was covered with snow now, one could still imagine that there would be a garden full of vegetables and fruits in autumn.

Tang Ai and Bai Nana listened with great interest to Aunt Yuan's stories about growing vegetables, about the little raccoons who occasionally came to pick up the trash, and about the birds that built their nests under the eaves.Ji Kaifeng, on the other hand, tapped the stone with his toes without interest, thinking about the conversation in the living room.

There is a swing in the backyard, which is well covered by the shed and not soaked by the snow. Bai Nana is wrapped in a thick down jacket and sits on it, swinging happily, while her brother Ai pushes her behind.

Aunt Yuan smiled when she saw Bai Nana's happy face, she turned to Ji Kaifeng and said, "Xiaofeng, let's play too!" Ji Kaifeng shook his head.

They stayed in the backyard for a long time. Aunt Yuan collected a big bag of fruits and vegetables for Tang Ai. Yuan Shucai and Bai Che came over. Ji Kaifeng turned his head to look at his brother as soon as he heard footsteps behind him.

Bai Che just walked over and rubbed his head, at this moment Bai Nana threw herself into her brother's arms: "Brother!"

Bai Che patted the snow on Bai Nana's body: "Are you happy?"

"Happy!" Bai Nana smiled at Uncle Yuan and Aunt Yuan again.

Bai Che looked at the big bag in Tang Ai's hand, and turned to the two elders: "Thank you Uncle Yuan and Aunt Yuan, this is enough for a long time, and you can still eat fresh and healthy vegetables."

Uncle Yuan took them back to the living room: "For us, it is the most gratifying thing to see you grow up healthily."

In the subsequent chats, Ji Kaifeng was not mentioned again. He was not sure what Bai Che had discussed with Uncle Yuan, and how he resolved his identity issue. Stay here until after lunch.

It really disturbed Uncle Yuan for a long time, Bai Che felt a little embarrassed, and took his younger siblings and Tang Ai to say goodbye to Uncle Yuan and Aunt Yuan: "Thank you Uncle Yuan for taking care of Nana, I have disturbed you for a long time today, we should go back too gone."

Uncle Yuan had other arrangements in the afternoon, so he didn't keep them anymore and sent the children out.

Ji Kaifeng got into the car, and saw Bai Che and Uncle Yuan standing on the doorstep talking for a while from the car window.

Uncle Yuan: "I will take care of the child's affairs, Xiao Che, you won't need Uncle Yuan to be your guardian in two years, I also know that you are a responsible child, but I still want to tell you, from now on You will have more things to consider, so pay more attention to yourself." Bai Che once again sincerely expressed his gratitude to Uncle Yuan for agreeing to help.

Uncle Yuan watched the white car turn left out of the block at the door, gradually disappearing into the snowdrifts, thinking that this kid Bai Che was far more responsible than that idiot Lei Boda, and that he could accomplish things. Children educated by Bai.Thinking of the things Lei Boda did under his nose, he shook his head and sighed,

Maybe he is getting older, but the bleak atmosphere in winter always reminds him of the glorious years he spent with Lao Bai, the confusion of eating and sleeping in the open, and the squandering of money.Only at his and Lao Bai's age can he experience the loneliness of the years that have settled down after reaching the top.

He might have a little understanding of Bai Che's decision to take in and take care of the little boy. Apart from his sympathy for being alone when he was young, his sympathy for the little boy's miserable childhood, and the responsibility and courage of that young man.
