A cramped small attic, simply furnished with the most basic furniture, the kitchen without a range hood is exposed to the dining room, making the whole room seem to be filled with a weird smell of oily smoke.
Although there are two rooms, they are so small that only one bed can be placed. It seems that they were originally just a storage room.The larger one also looked overcrowded after placing the desk of the owner of the room.
This is Xu Pian's home that Li Xing found out from the boss.
"I'm sorry, when we rented the house, it was just in time for the peak season. There were too many people renting houses, so we had to rent such a crappy house."
Xu Pian's mother smiled awkwardly, brought out a plate of fruit and put it on the table.
Li Xing did not expose Xu's mother's words, and nodded in thanks.
"What a coincidence, Xu Pian hasn't come back yet, if you're not in a hurry, just sit here and wait for him?"
Li Xing peeled an orange: "It's okay, Auntie, let's wait."
He said he was waiting for Xu Pian to come back, but he couldn't just sit around like this, so Li Xing simply sacrificed his parents' favorite school bully, and started to talk cutely.
Xu Pian's mother is a very ordinary parent, taking Xu Pian alone to rent a house in the city to go to school.In order for Xu Pian to be closer to the school, she rented such a room in the school district, which was in poor condition but still expensive.
Her education level is not high, and she can only do some simple manual work. After paying the rent, the money is only enough for her and Xu Pian's daily expenses, and life is tight.
"Auntie, did Xu Pian tell you to pay you recently?" Liao Yun asked considering Xu Pian's extortion.
Xu's mother was stunned: "No, is there any fee for the school to pay? This child is so confused in his studies that he forgot to tell me such an important thing."
She subconsciously thought that Li Xing and the others were here to collect money.
Xu's mother turned around and went back to the room to get the money: "How much is it, little classmate, can I leave it to you?"
Li Xing hurriedly said: "The school's fee is for extracurricular activities. Xu Pian probably didn't participate. Auntie, you don't need to pay."
After finishing speaking, he and Liao Yun understood.
Xu Pian probably didn't tell his family anything about his time at school.
Even the money for Liu Yuan was earned by himself.
"Well, is this event important?"
As parents, I am always afraid that if my children miss a group activity, they will miss some opportunity to acquire knowledge.
"It's not important, just eat, play and relax." Liao Yun said.
Only then did Mother Xu feel relieved.
"Relax and go for a walk, what else do you spend money on?" She muttered to herself, as if she felt a little embarrassed to care about money so much, and explained, "I'm afraid that you won't be able to spend money if you become fascinated by the entertainment items that cost you money." study well."
"Before, Xu Pian's aunt's cousin insisted on buying a mobile phone, but ended up playing games and watching TV on the mobile phone every day. No matter how much his parents persuaded him, that's a good result..." She shook her head and smacked her tongue, "Probably There is no hope for college.”
"...Our family has a house in the suburbs, it's a bit old, but it's not convenient to go to school because it's far away from the school. When the government demolishes it, I guess we can get a new house, and keep it for Xu Pian to marry later. Wife..."
"...Xu Pianfei wants to sell the house arguing and buy a small apartment in the urban area. This kid is too bad at reckoning. When our house is demolished, the price will definitely increase. How much can we sell now... ..."
Li Xing patiently listened to Xu's mother's chatter, even though he knew that the facts were always different from what Xu's mother thought. Will be demolished.
But he still chose to listen quietly. In his memory, it seemed that he rarely had such an opportunity to hear his mother tell himself that these parents were short-sighted.
These words made him both novel and warm.
It seems to be able to see a picture. After the child comes home from school, he chats with his mother about the interesting things that happened today while eating, maybe it’s gossip, maybe it’s complaints, and then they finish their respective stories with satisfaction, and then turn around to do their own things .
They do not interfere with each other, but they are always closely connected.
"Why are you here?"
After an unknown amount of time, the door was opened.Xu Pian stood in surprise at the door with her schoolbag in her hand, with an unconcealable exhaustion on her face.
"Come and understand something with your mother." Liao Yun shrugged, and under Xu Pian's suspicious gaze, he waved to Xu's mother, "Auntie, let's talk to Xu Pian about something, and we will leave immediately."
The two brothers grabbed Xu Pian's shoulders and forcibly led him down from the door of the house.
"Liao Yun, let go first!" Li Xing frowned and shouted.
Liao Yun's heart tightened, and he let go of Xu Pian's grip.
Seeing that the other party seemed to have thought of something bad, his face was pale, and he took two trembling steps back as soon as he let go.The original action of carrying the schoolbag with one hand has also changed to holding the schoolbag with both hands, blocking in front of me as if grabbing a life-saving straw.
Liao Yun was annoyed for a while. He knew that Xu Pian might have a stress reaction to the coercive action because he was threatened, so he almost forcibly took him away from the house.
In Xu Pian's eyes, I'm afraid I'm no different from those gangsters.
Seeing his reaction, Li Xing simply took a step forward and threatened in a low voice: "If you react more strongly, your mother will doubt it."
Xu Pian paused, then lowered her head dejectedly, but still did not let go of her schoolbag.
Li Xing didn't say anything, he knew that in Xu Pian's eyes, he, the tyrant of the [-]th Lieutenant Colonel, who had a bigger and more stinking reputation than Liu Yuan, was not a good thing, and he didn't bother to explain to him.
He simply made up a reason that fit his status: "I have a little bit of a holiday with Liu Yuan, and I'm happy when he's upset, so I won't do anything to you."
The flash of Xu Pian's face really did not escape Liao Yun's eyes. He took out the specially prepared 400 yuan from his pocket and stuffed it to Xu Pian, and said softly: "Next time Liu Yuan threatens you, you will give me a part of it." Give it to him, and leave the rest at home for your mother."
Xu Pian, who didn't want to take the money at first, hesitated after hearing that it was left to her mother, but still accepted it.
The money he earned recently is no longer enough to satisfy the growing appetite of Liu Yuan and the others.
Xu Pian said "thank you" in a low voice, tightly holding the money, her thin bangs blocked his downcast eyes and all his expressions.
"I'll pay you back when I graduate."
He knew that the possibility of getting rid of those people by himself in high school was too small, so he could only hope for his life after graduation.At that time, he had hands and feet, so he could have his own savings.
Not even the university dared to think about it.
Seeing him suppressing his emotions, Li Xing said: "If I report Liu Yuan to the school, would you be willing to be a witness?"
Xu Pian was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly raised her head to look at Li Xing.
He saw that the light in Li Xing's eyes was clear and cold, he seemed to struggle a bit, and the excitement in his heart gradually went out again.
Shaking her head, Xu Pian pursed her lips and handed the money back: "Sorry, I may have to work part-time and I don't have time."
Li Xing was not upset when he was rejected, he just winked at Liao Yun as if he had never asked anything, the two refused to accept Xu Pian's money, and waved at Xu's mother who was standing in front of the window and kept looking out, Turn around and step into the twilight.
It was already late at night when I hurried back to school from Xu Pian's house, and slipped into the dormitory over the wall with ease.
Li Xing sweated a little from running too fast just now, took off his coat and prepared to go in to take a shower.
Liao Yun's eyes fell on his inadvertently exposed slender waist, and immediately turned his eyes to the desk.
He casually picked up a pen and scratched a few times on the draft paper: "I don't think you are disappointed?"
"Yeah." Li Xing took out his pajamas from the closet, "He has been threatened so many times, he shouldn't be so stupid that he hasn't mentioned it to anyone."
When Li Xing invited him to report on Liu Yuan together, Xu Pian's eyes brightened. He seemed to have a lot of plans to tell Li Xing.These plans are the solutions he came up with during the days and nights of tossing and turning.
But none of them have been implemented.
Maybe he tried to ask for help, but he couldn't get a response from others, and gradually felt that his thoughts were just delusions.
"The price of failure is too high, so I dare not try lightly." Liao Yun was a little emotional.
Li Xing didn't speak again, he walked into the bathroom quickly, and closed the door with a "snap".
With the sound of pattering water, Liao Yun stared at the bathroom door in a daze, then woke up quickly, rubbed his temples vigorously, and forced himself to shift his energy to the test paper Li Xing made.
He picked up the little hamster, who was sleeping soundly in the cage, and put it on his left hand. With his right hand, he brushed its soft fur unconsciously, staring at the test paper and talking to himself. "Tell me, is there really something that would make people daunting?" Liao Yun was confused, "If there is, what would it be?"
"Ji——" the little hamster subconsciously yelled uncomfortably after being stroked.
"Li Xing said that Liu Yuan bullied him before." Liao Yun continued, "How about I find a chance to beat him up?"
"Ji——" the little hamster opened his sesame-sized eyes and replied.
"But beating him up seems to be a little cheap for him. Otherwise, let him kneel down and call Li Xing's father?"
Liao Yun's eyes lit up, and he thought it was a good idea: "By the way, ask him if there is any material."
It just so happened that he had written quite a few of his self-criticisms now, so he could change the material and count the words.
"Who are you looking for material?"
Li Xing pushed open the bathroom door and came out, only to hear Liao Yun talking to himself.
He poured himself a cup of hot water, closed the door, turned on the air conditioner and shrank into the quilt.
"It's nothing, it's just that the manuscript I'm writing is a bit short of material, and I'm considering whether to go out to find inspiration."
Liao Yun does not plan to tell Li Xing that he wants to beat Liu Yuan for the time being.
There is no other use for Li Xing to worry about things that have not yet been written.
And what if he really had a chance to beat him up one day?
Liao Yun conceived in his mind how to deal with the "friendly relationship" between Li Xing and his classmates, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc unconsciously.
"grumble--"
Li Xing raised his head from under the quilt, his face full of indescribable words: "Did you hear the hamster barking?"
"Huh?" Liao Yun raised his eyebrows.
"He's calling," Li Xing took a deep breath, "let go, I'm going bald."
Liao Yun lowered his head, and saw that the hamster, which was full of vitality, collapsed into a mouse cake at some point, lying powerlessly in his palm.
The original shiny and smooth fur now seems to have lost its luster along with the owner, looking ugly and pitiful.
Seeing him looking over, the little hamster's dark eyes seemed to be full of sorrow.
"grumble--"
Liao Yun: "..."
The author has something to say: If hamsters could talk:
"Don't touch me, you are not as comfortable as that boy."
"Hey, don't touch it... I'm really going to be bald"
"Help……"
"You finally noticed me..."
Although there are two rooms, they are so small that only one bed can be placed. It seems that they were originally just a storage room.The larger one also looked overcrowded after placing the desk of the owner of the room.
This is Xu Pian's home that Li Xing found out from the boss.
