A product like a year

"Second brother is home?"

A chubby boy stretched his neck and looked left and right. Li Boran nodded and didn't say much.

"Brother, let me take you home."

Li Boran looked at his sweaty face and wanted to laugh.

"You are so fat, can you still ride with me on your back?"

Several boys around him also laughed, and a thin boy said: "Brother, don't look at the fat old man, he has good physical strength! The few of us played ball just now, Ma Dan's, and no one could beat him." Go up and grab the ball. It's too heavy, and the ground trembles when I run."

The fat boy named Old Fatty smiled foolishly, patted the back seat, and said proudly: "Let's go brother, I'm in this figure, kick up and keep it steady!"

Li Boran smiled helplessly, and finally got on the old fat bicycle, and a group of boys laughed and pedaled.On the road, someone asked why Li Boran didn't take a whole bicycle because his home was so far away.Li Boran said bluntly: "My father earns money in my family. My mother is not in good health. She has to buy medicine, pay for me to go to school, and eat and drink. There is a bicycle at home, but if I ride away, my father has to go to work. I walked away. If this is on you, will you take care of your family's needs?"

The handlebars of the old fat man swayed, and the whole body tilted for a while, and then returned to the normal track.He felt a little uncomfortable, his family's conditions were not good, he had no father since he was a child, his mother raised him up by herself, and gave him all the good ones, otherwise he wouldn't be so fat.

In the past, he would complain about his mother, why everyone else had a father, but he didn't, but now it seems that he is still happy.After all, the mother is in good health.I also remembered the time when Grandpa Li Boran passed away, all my brothers went there, watching Li Boran kneeling in the mourning hall and crying loudly, the brothers carried him back to the house when he fainted from crying, and watched him run back to the house when he woke up. The mourning hall continued to howl.

That was the first time they saw a farewell, and it was also the first time they saw such a filial child.That day they all secretly made up their minds that they would hang out with Li Boran for the rest of their lives, because filial people would not be so bad.

Now hearing what he said just now, the boys felt that they were too ignorant on weekdays, so they all fell silent.Riding a bike under the sun, sweat ran down his forehead and into his eye sockets, killing his eyes.

They sent him home directly, and when they were about to say goodbye, they ran into Dad Li who was out to pour the slop.

The skinny boy who had ridiculed the old fat man just now parked the car quickly, took the slop bucket from Dad Li's hand, and helped pour water.Father Li was a little embarrassed, a smile appeared on his wrinkled face, and he said to the children around him: "It's just in time, my uncle's house has stewed fish, stay for dinner."

The skinny boy came back with a bucket and said very politely:

"No, we're going home now, uncle, please say hello to my aunt by the way."

Li Boran, who had been silent all this time, spoke:

"Let's stay and have a meal. My mother hasn't seen you for a long time, and she always talks to me on weekdays. If you want to ask questions, ask yourself. My father doesn't care about spreading the word."

The old fat man was the most invisible, grinning his back molars and said with a smirk:

"I smelled the fragrance just now, and my stomach growled, but I didn't have the nerve to say it just now."

The skinny boy kicked him and said angrily:

"Look at your promising future."

After speaking, he entered the door with a bucket of slops. The brothers parked the car, and none of them bothered to lock it. Although the people in this place are not rich, they are all good-natured. I have never encountered a car theft.After everyone parked the car, they went into the house. You stepped on his feet, and he hit your waist. The small room suddenly became lively.

When several people saw Mama Li walking around the pot, they all approached Mama Li very affectionately and praised Mama Li for her skill.Li Ma smiled shyly and didn't say much.

Father Li went to set the table, the skinny boy was the most discerning, he hurried to help, and went back to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks.

Finally, Mama Li and Lao Fatty brought two pots of fish to the table, one for each.All are bright red.The peppers floating on top give off a mouth-watering burnt aroma.The old fat man wiped his mouth and picked up the fish with his chopsticks.

The skinny boy sat beside him and gave him a push. The fat old man looked up at the crowd and said embarrassedly, "It smells so good, can't you hold back!"

Li Ma suppressed her laughter and pushed the fish towards the children.Her subtle movements made the children quiet down, with mixed feelings in their hearts.The skinny boy stood up quickly, pushed a bowl of fish in front of Li's father and Li's mother, and said with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, we have long arms and can reach it. You two eat it and don't worry about us."

The old fat man spat out the fishbone and echoed:

"That's right, I don't see outside, I have long regarded this as my home."

As soon as he finished speaking, the boys laughed again.This meal was very lively, and the Li family hadn't been this lively for a long time.Li Boran thought about it, the last time it was so lively was when grandma was alive!At that time, the district family would come to the house to eat pancakes. After grandma passed away, no one mentioned the pancakes anymore.The uncle of the district family and the second uncle also went to other places, and now that grandpa has also left, life is even more deserted.

Looking around at the people around, the smiles on their faces were so real, for a moment, Li Boran felt that he was no longer alone, but after walking around, he found that the person he cared about most was not there, and suddenly felt uncomfortable again.

Father Li took a sip of his wine and asked:

"Where's Yang Yang?"

Li Boran was stunned for a moment, then quickly said:

"He has something to do tonight, so he didn't come."

Father Li nodded and muttered:

"I thought you two were having a fight."

The old fat man on the side replied in a low voice:

"Uncle, you've wronged my brother. He won't fight with anyone here, but he won't fight with the second brother. They are as good at school as one person, and we can't get in the way."

Father Li's hand holding the wine glass froze in the air, and it took a while to pass it to his mouth. This time he took a big sip, and then handed the glass to Mother Li.Mama Li took the cup and walked out of the house. After a while, there was a clanging sound from the kitchen, probably she was packing things.

After they had enough water and food, the children grinned and planned to leave.Li's father and Li's mother came out to see him off, and Li's mother, who had not spoken a word, said anxiously: "Let's play again!"

Several boys were stunned, as if they didn't understand, Li Boran said: "My mother asked you to come and play when you have time, she is from Sichuan."

The old fat man patted his forehead and said with a smile:

"Auntie, Sichuan dialect is really nice. You can teach me how to speak it next time. This counts as an extra foreign language for me."

Mama Li blushed. She was afraid that others would look down on her, so she rarely spoke in front of outsiders. Now that the children said that, she felt a little embarrassed.

Several people pushed the cart to leave, Li Boran said to the skinny boy: "Madman, thank you!"

The thin boy's name is Wu Xuefeng, and everyone calls him a lunatic.

Li Boran's thank you made me a little at a loss, thanked myself for what, did I pour the slop for my uncle, or did I clean the dishes for my aunt?Brother is not like that kind of hypocritical person.While he was pondering, Li Boran said again: "Thank you for everything today."

The lunatic rolled his eyes, and said in a special tone:

"It's useless to do it all. Why are you being polite to me?"

After speaking, I rode a bicycle with everyone and disappeared at the corner of the alley.Li Boran helped Li Ma go back to the house. When he went out to use the toilet, he saw his father standing in the yard. After he drained the water, he found that his father was still standing in the yard, so he walked to his father and said in a low voice: "Dad, say Bar!"

He and his father have a tacit agreement, that is, the father and father can talk in the yard if they have anything to do, and neither grandpa nor mother will be disturbed.Seeing his dad like this today, there must be something wrong, otherwise why wait for him in the yard.

Father Li looked at the sky, but not at his son.

"Is there something going on between you and Yang Yang?"

Li Boran was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and replied:

"Dad, you're thinking too much. I didn't have any trouble with him. He said his house stewed game at night, but he asked me to go, but I didn't. It's not because of any trouble that he didn't come to our house. Don't worry!"

Father Li suddenly lowered his head and looked at his son very seriously.

"That's not what I said, you should know what I mean."

Li Boran felt that something was wrong, his father couldn't see anything, and it definitely wouldn't be a hint of anything.

"Dad, I don't understand, don't talk about it, it's getting dark, go back to the house and watch TV."

Father Li didn't move, and said in a low voice:

"Of course, I know about your dad, but I can't say much about you. You and him are brothers, don't think about it, okay? You're going to college in the future, and you're going to find a woman to marry. He's the same, dad All I can say here is that you have to walk straight on the road, and don't go sideways." Li Boran was dumbfounded, he was not a fool, and neither was his father.He thought he was hiding it well, but!

He took his father's callused hand, said that you were drunk, and then went back to the house together.

The mother on the kang is embroidering a pair of insoles with dense stitches and beautiful patterns.She looked up at the two men, put down her needlework, and went down to get the kang table.After setting up the kang table, it moved to one side and continued to embroider insoles.Father Li sat on the other side of the Kang table, watching his son study.

"This question is wrong."

Li Boran looked in the direction of his father's finger, and found that it was a choice question, and quickly used the calculation paper to recalculate it again, and it was indeed wrong.After changing it to the correct answer, he glanced at his father.

"Everything else is correct."

Only then did Li Boran feel relieved to do other questions. His father didn’t talk very much, so he already said a lot tonight, but how Li Boran hoped that those words were not spoken to him by his father, how much he hoped that it was just his illusion .

He was in a particularly bad state today, and he made several mistakes in a row. His father instructed him to recalculate, while muttering: Why are the types of questions so complicated now.

Li Boran raised his face and smiled and said:

"It's hard! I think it's hard too."
