Gu Pei reborn

On the weekend, Gu Pei bought incense paper and went to Chen Ma's grave with Chen Yan.The tomb is not in the cemetery, but on the hill behind Chen Yan's house.

The mountains here are rocky, and there are no trees, only overgrown weeds and wild flowers.Chen Ma's tomb is in a slightly flat place, with random stones and no tombstone. There are remnants of incense paper in the grass in front, probably blown away by the wind.

The train passed by below, and the rumbling sound was like a distant mourning. Just looking at such a tomb, Gu Pei felt sad, while Chen Yan's eyes were already wet.

Although Chen Yan's house was only unoccupied for a few days, because it was next to the railway, a lot of dust had accumulated outside and inside the house.It seems that the house hasn't been tidied up carefully, the ground is full of messy sundries, Chen Yan glanced at Gu Pei with some embarrassment, then moved a stool, wiped it clean and put it next to Gu Pei.Gu Pei shook his head and said, "Let's pack up the things first."

"I'll do it myself." Chen Yan lowered his head and said.

Gu Pei smiled and patted his head, without speaking, he acted directly.There is still leftover food in this room, which needs to be cleaned out.The pots, pans and pans should also be cleaned and put away, and it will save a lot of money to help Chen Yan find a place to move there later. As for Chen Ma's things, according to the custom, they should be burned in front of the tomb drop it.

Cleaning up the house was not an easy task. Fortunately, Gu Pei had brought steamed buns and water earlier, so he could eat it when he was tired, but sitting in the messy room and smelling the strange smell was really hard to swallow.

After packing everything up, Chen Yan collected another big bag of things to take away, but Gu Pei thought about his narrow house, so he asked him to bring only the important things, and put the things that are not in use here.

When Chen Yan said he was leaving in the afternoon, Gu Pei patted his head comfortingly and said, "It's not far from here, you can come back anytime you want."

"En." Chen Yan nodded and followed Gu Pei out of the room.

Being held by Gu Pei, the warm feeling was like being soaked in warm water. Chen Yan raised his head and looked at the back of Gu Pei who was much taller than himself, feeling an unspeakable emotion in his heart. He thought, what if It would be nice to be held by Brother Gu Pei like this all the time.

Going home in the afternoon, the two of them were already very tired. Gu Pei wanted to go to bed directly, but Chen Yan dragged him to cook the noodles and wait for him to eat before letting him go to bed.

When Gu Pei woke up, there was no trace of Chen Yan at home, thinking that he might have gone to play, Gu Pei was not worried.As soon as he packed up his things and was about to cook, Gu Pei heard the sound of the lock being unlocked. He thought it was Chen Yan, but when he turned around, he found it was Papa Gu.Gu Pei shook his hand, and the rag in his hand fell to the ground. He didn't tell Papa Gu that Chen Yan lived here. If Chen Yan came back soon...

"Yo, Xiao Pei knows he's in a daze too?" Papa Gu put the things in his hand on the ground, then smiled and reached out to touch Gu Pei's head, but Gu Pei tilted his head and Papa Gu missed it.

"The child will not be good when he grows up." Seeing Gu Pei avoiding, Gu's father withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, and then deliberately made a look of emotion, "Huh? Are there guests at home?" Gu's father tilted his head, his eyes It landed on a few children's clothes by the bed.

Gu Pei's heart tightened, and Gu's father was still paying attention to the clothes. After thinking about it, he decided to "confess": "Well, it's my classmate's younger brother, the one who often asks me to make up lessons. My mother knows this. Well, this is not It’s weekends, it’s rare for him to run as a child, so let him live here for these two days.”

"Children? Don't you..." Papa Gu's words stopped when he saw the big bag in the corner, he looked at the furnishings in the room thoughtfully, and then Papa Gu frowned all of a sudden .

Seeing Gu's father like this, Gu Pei's heart thumped, and he became nervous unconsciously, thinking about how to lie for a while.

"Is that kid running away from home?" Father Gu frowned and stared at Gu Pei.

"??" Gu Pei was a little unresponsive.

"Now these children are really worrying, and you are too, just keep him?! His parents must be very worried. You should send him back tomorrow."

Gu's father said this very harshly, and Gu Pei unconsciously responded with a "yes", and then heard a knock on his own door, and then the sound of footsteps getting farther and farther away.

Gu Pei was taken aback for a moment, but then he came to his senses and immediately opened the door and chased him out.Sure enough, he saw Chen Yan's shadow flashing past at the corner of the aisle.Gu Pei was very worried. He didn't know whether Chen Yan was afraid to run away because he found out that his father came back, or because he heard that sentence, um, no, if he heard all the words, he shouldn't have this reaction, so he only heard the last sentence. Is that sentence?Gu Pei couldn't help being suspicious.

"Xiao Pei, what are you going to do?" Father Gu also ran out.

"It was that kid who ran away just now. I'll chase him back." Gu Pei raised his head and shouted upstairs, while stomping downstairs.

"What?!" Dad Gu was also anxious. The child ran away from home. He probably ran away when he heard that he was about to send him home. It would be troublesome if he disappeared now. Whatever it is, I'll look for it too." Papa Gu also ran downstairs.

"It's as tall as my chest, and I'm wearing a yellow T-shirt. If you see something similar, stop it first." Gu Pei said anxiously. The kid has been running around the streets and alleys since he was a child. If he hides in any corner quickly, he can find him no.

After going downstairs, Chen Yan was nowhere to be seen. After thinking about it, Gu Pei ran towards Chen Yan's house, but the child disappeared as early as a loach. He told Dad Gu behind him to go in another direction, and Gu Pei went to Chen Yan's house. Continue to search, while asking the passers-by, asked a few people, and finally said that he saw such a child, Gu Pei breathed a sigh of relief, continued to ask, arrived at a fork in the road, followed the passers-by's instructions, and went to the other side , Gu Pei finally saw a figure resembling Chen Yan flashing in front of him.Not calling Chen Yan's name, Gu Pei quickly ran forward and stopped, and it really was him!Gu Pei breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed Chen Yan and squatted on the ground, he was really tired from running!It's just that the child kept on struggling and waving his other hand indiscriminately, hitting Gu Pei's body, causing him severe pain.

After taking a breath, Gu Pei got up and grabbed his other hand, and then pinned him to his chest: "My dad thought you were a child who ran away from home, so he asked me to take you home, and I agreed indiscriminately to deal with him. After shouting this sentence, Gu Pei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"..." Chen Yan didn't speak, but his struggle was much weaker.

Gu Pei squatted down, fixed Chen Yan's shoulders, and didn't care if he lowered his head, just stared at him and said word by word: "I will not abandon you."

"...Really?" After a long time, Chen Yan asked in a hoarse voice.He just made up his mind to leave his home today, but he didn't expect to hear that Gu Pei promised his father to send him back the next moment. He felt very uncomfortable and just wanted to escape to a strange place.Now Brother Gu Pei came and said that he would not abandon himself, but is that true?Brother Gu Pei also has parents. Although Auntie is a nice person, she wouldn't accept staying at his house, would she?Moreover, he and brother Gu Pei have always lied to their uncle and aunt. If one day the aunt finds out that she is an orphan picking up trash, she will definitely hate herself, right?

"Of course." Gu Pei let go of one hand, then raised Chen Yan's head, and wiped away the wet tears on his face, feeling guilty all of a sudden.After thinking about it, he said, "My dad is also very good. He is just worried that you ran away from home, but he will leave tomorrow, so you don't have to worry. If my parents are often at home in the future, I will help you find them nearby." house."

Chen Yan nodded sullenly.

"Okay, let's go back, I haven't eaten dinner yet, you go back and make it, and let my dad try your handicraft." Gu Pei got up and patted Chen Yan's head, and then pulled him back.It wasn't until he got downstairs that he remembered that his father was outside, so he said, "Go back and cook first, my father has also gone to look for you, I'll find him back."

"Ah."

Looking at the streets full of people coming and going, Gu Pei hated this era without mobile phones. He also forgot to mention the time and place of meeting just now. Now he doesn't know where his father is.

Here, Chen Yan went back to the house, washed the rice and cooked the rice first, then looked at the pile of things by the door and knew that they belonged to Papa Gu. those tools.

When Gu Pei and Gu Pa opened the door, they saw Chen Yan bouncing up with a rag, looking at them with embarrassment.When Pa Gu saw the child carefully looking at him with a rag, his heart softened all of a sudden, and when he looked at his cleaned tools and the steaming rice cooker, he felt even more fond and distressed for the child. .Sighing inwardly, Papa Gu still swallowed his words of persuading him to go back, let Xiaopei talk about it tomorrow.If it is tight, it will be troublesome to run again.

"Hello, Uncle." After a long time, Chen Yan came back to his senses and greeted Papa Gu.

"Yeah." Gu's father showed the hearty and slightly teasing smile that he always had with Gu Pei, "He's a good kid. Little Pei has never wiped these for me."

"Hmm..." Chen Yan didn't seem to expect Papa Gu's reaction. Chen Yan looked at Gu Pei at a loss, and when he saw the gentle smile on Gu Pei's face, he also slowly relaxed.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"His name is Chen Yan." Gu Pei said at this time.Although his father was very kind, Chen Yan's child was already nervous at the moment, and if he asked too many questions, he would probably become even more nervous.

"Oh, Xiaoyan..." Gu's father nodded in a drawn-out tone, and then looked at Gu Pei again, "You boy, Xiaoyan is already cooking, so why don't you get the food."

"Understood." Gu Pei also cooperated with Gu's father to make a sullen look after being criticized, and then made a show of flirting with Chen Yan, then took the shauji and vegetables to the bathroom, and Chen Yan followed closely behind .

Gu's father watched Chen Yan follow his son, shook his head helplessly, then turned on the TV, adjusted the antenna and started watching.
