Rebirth Delay

"Xiao Ze, what are you thinking?" Tang Anmin glanced at Xu Ze who put down his pen and propped his chin as if he was in deep thought. He wanted to laugh, but he held back and asked in a serious tone.

"Uncle, the weather is so hot today." Xu Ze sighed facing the dazzling sunlight outside the door.

"What?" Tang Anmin patted the back of Xu Ze's head, and said softly, "Worried about brother?" He was always cold and hard to this child.Every time I look at his immature face, my heart can't help but soften.

"Hmm." Xu Ze turned his head to look at Tang Anmin, and asked, "Uncle, do you think my brother can sell out the popsicles? Will he suffer from heat stroke?"

"No, your brother will take care of himself, he knows that there is a younger brother waiting for him at home." Tang Anmin comforted.

"Hey——" Xu Ze sighed like an adult, "I wish I could grow up faster."

Tang Anmin's eyes softened a little, he patted his thin shoulder, and did not speak again.

After thinking about it, there are two main ways to sell popsicles during the busy farming season in August.

The first one is the field, especially before lunch, everyone packs up the sickle cart and sits on the ridge to rest.At this time, people's hearts are relaxed, and the fatigue in the body comes up.The best thing is to buy a popsicle to quench your thirst and dissipate heat, and reward yourself.There are a lot of people in the field, and once you buy it, you will definitely buy a lot of it together, so that it will sell quickly.

The second one is in the village. During the siesta, everyone who was tired all morning fell asleep, and the old men and women took their sleepless grandchildren to enjoy the shade in the shade of trees.The children ran around all over the place, and the old people sat on the mats, playing fans, and chatting with each other.Old people dote on their children. If a child opens his mouth, he is usually willing to pay a few cents.

If someone can build a house, the head of the household will be kind enough to buy a bag of popsicles and distribute one to the workers.

But it depends on luck, after all, the village is quite big.People are also very busy building houses. If you move closer to someone without knowing your eyes, you might be slapped.

So Shiyan's route is in the fields—under the shade of the trees in the village—wherever he rides.

The results on the first day were surprisingly good. Shi Yan walked around the field a few times, and fifty or sixty popsicles went out of the tin box.After turning to a few shade trees, I sold all 110 sticks of popsicles.A few children were still surrounding the tin box and looking inside, Shi Yan poured some ice cubes from the bottom for them, and let them squeeze and play.

The children imitated the delay and yelled, "Ice Popsicles——Ice Popsicles—cold Popsicles—"

The old man under the shade of the tree laughed when he heard it, making the time delay a little embarrassing.

The old people called Shi Yan over to sit down. Shi Yan felt that the top of his head was scorching hot, and his clothes were completely soaked, so he leaned the car against the wall on one side and sat down beside the old people.The old man and the old lady handed him a bowl of water, but ignored him and continued to chat on their own.

"Look at this." A swarthy child leaned over.

"What is it?" The child clenched his hands tightly, Shi Yan could only see a black thing with wings, and asked curiously.

The child smiled, and a pair of black and white eyes were particularly bright on the dirty little face, "I know, I knew that after shedding its shell under the ground, it got out and flew to the tree. We children took the The one caught in the net, the others were thrown into the chicken coop, and this one is left in my hand."

Time delay smiled.

"Have you never seen Cicada?" the child doubted.

"I've seen it before." Shi Yan said, lowered his head to search the ground for a while, pointed to a small hole and said, "Is this the kind of hole? If you dig it down, you'll see the empty shell of Cicada."

"Well," the child squatted down, dialed at the entrance of the hole, and handed the cicada he was clutching to Shi Yan, "Here you are."

"Give it to me?" Shi Yan was surprised.

"There are a lot of these things, you can take them and play with them." The child's tone was like an adult's, and he held it like a baby just now, and now he gave it away indifferently.

Shi Yan rode his bike home, washed his hands by the sink where he entered the door, and wiped off his sweat with a towel before going to the front yard.

Looking from the door, Xu Ze was lying on the table, looking at the TV with a somewhat absent-minded gaze.Shi Yan smiled and called, "Ozawa."

Xu Ze jumped up suddenly and rushed towards Shi Yan. "Brother, you are back. Are you hungry? Are you tired? How is the sale?"

While leading Xu Ze into the house, Shi Yan said, "I'm a little hungry, not too tired, they're all sold out."

"Really?" Surprise appeared in Xu Ze's eyes, and he lifted the big round cover on the table, "Ma'am has left some food for you, brother, hurry up and eat."

"it is good."

Shi Yan was really hungry, he gorged himself after filling some dry rice, Xu Ze handed over a bowl of soup, Shi Yan took it and took a big gulp.

"Eat something with brother?" Shi Yan asked.

"Yeah." Xu Ze also sat down, served his own meal, and ate with Shi Yan.

Seeing that Xu Ze ate quite a lot, Shi Yan frowned, "Didn't you eat well at noon?"

Xu Ze pulled his voice and hummed, "I want to wait for my brother to come back and eat together."

Shi Yan was a little distressed and guilty, pinched Xu Ze's face, and said softly, "Don't do this in the future, I feel sorry for my brother who is hungry and thin."

"En." Xu Ze responded in a low voice.

"By the way, brother, Sun Tong and his elder brother came this morning, and I told them that you were not here. They went back after playing here for a while, and Sun Tong's elder brother said he would come in the afternoon." Xu Ze said.

"Oh." Shi Yan nodded, a little inexplicable for the initiative to get close to the two brothers.They just moved to Sun Xiu's house, how could Sun Han and grandson know about it?

"Where's Uncle Aunt and the others?" Shi Yan scanned the courtyard, but saw no one.

"It seems to be growing something in the front field." Xu Ze drank the soup, patted his belly, and was satisfied.

Seeing that Shi Yan also put down the bowl, he twisted his body and leaned against Shi Yan.

"It stinks in sweat, don't you dislike it?" Shi Yan smiled.

"It doesn't stink." Xu Ze grabbed Shi Yan's clothes and smelled them, and said decisively.

Although Xu Ze didn't dislike it, Shi Yan still took a shower to get rid of the smell of sweat, and then he comfortably hugged Xu Ze and lay on the bed, holding Xu Ze in his arms.

"Brother, how much did you earn today?" Xu Ze asked, leaning his neck against Shi Yan's chest.

"Well, seven yuan. In the future, if you take more every day, you will definitely earn more." Shi Yan said.

"Ah."

"What's wrong?" Shi Yan patted Xu Ze's little butt, thought for a while, and said, "It's okay, my brother's body is strong, and there are muscles on his arms, just pinch and see."

Xu Ze stretched out his hand, and Shi Yan grabbed it and put it on his arm.Xu Ze pinched it, but it was really hard to pinch.He pinched his own again, the soft and thin flesh, without any muscle.

Seeing that the child was a little frustrated, Shi Yan comforted him, "Are you still young, you will have muscles in the future."

"Oh, that's right!" Shi Yan slapped his head, sat up, and reached out to touch the trouser pocket thrown on the stool next to him.

Xu Ze also sat up, lying on Shi Yan's waist, watching curiously.

Shi Yan took out the bottle from his trouser pocket and handed it to Xu Ze, "Look."

The big black bug in the bottle startled Xu Ze, and his voice trembled a little, "Brother, what is this?"

"Got it, it's also called a cicada. I like to call it in summer, especially at this time." Shi Yan moved the bottle closer to Xu Ze, "Don't be afraid, it's just a bug, Ozawa is a man."

"I'm not afraid!" Xu Ze immediately yelled with his neck stuck, and then his voice weakened again, "Why is it so big?"

Shi Yan couldn't help laughing, and joked, "Is it big? Why doesn't brother think so?"

Xu Ze gave him a dissatisfied look, then took the bottle carefully, watching Cicada bumping back and forth with the tilt of the bottle, he couldn't hide his curiosity, "Brother, where did you get it?"

"When selling popsicles, a child gave them to me." Shi Yan said.

"Son, how old is the child?" Xu Ze asked.

"Four or five years old." Shi Yan felt amused when he thought of the expression on the child's face that he didn't need to thank me, "He looks dark, and he probably runs around in the sun all day."

"Brother, will I be able to catch up outside like him in the future?" Xu Ze looked at Xu Ze with anticipation in his eyes.

Time delay looked at him silently.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Xu Ze hastily tugged at the corner of his clothes.

"It's okay, I was just thinking..." Shi Yan shook his head, but didn't continue.

"What are you thinking?" Xu Ze asked.

"It's nothing, I was thinking that it's time for us to take a nap, otherwise we won't be able to sleep when Suntong and the others come." Shi Yan smiled softly, and kissed Xu Ze's cheek.

But I was thinking silently in my heart, Xu Ze, I was thinking.

I was thinking that in the previous life, although we took refuge in Liuzi, although we were always bullied, your focus was always on me, always looking at me, accompanying me, and relying on me.I want to be born again, I try my best to give you the best life I can give you, but you yearn for freedom and a wider world more and more.I was thinking whether such a change is right, whether one day you will leave me, betray me, and no longer only have me in your eyes?

Xu Ze quickly fell asleep, rolled over to the side of the bed, and rolled out of Shi Yan's embrace.Shi Yan stared blankly at the arm's length between the two, unable to fall asleep no matter what.

The blades of the large ceiling fan above the head are spinning fast, like a constantly spinning Frisbee.Shi Yan stared blankly for a while, and suddenly remembered something from his previous life.

That was the day when he, who had been going forward under the hands of Liu Zi, was beaten to the ground by Liang Qi next to He Tao. Liu Zi spat at him angrily, and took them away.Shi Yan was lying on the ground with a broken leg, unable to move due to the pain, but still staring at Liang Qi.

He Tao smiled disdainfully, then came over and squatted in front of Shi Yan, pinched his chin, and said, "Why, stop being arrogant? Your master doesn't want you anymore, what will you do with this dog? Why don't you follow me, I'll tune|teach|tune|teach|you, maybe you'll change from a chihuahua to a wolfhound?"

Shi Yan's eyes were full of hatred, and he suddenly spat bloody saliva at He Tao, which made He Tao's face smudged.

He Tao exuded a strong murderous aura all over his body, Shi Yan once thought he would be killed by He Tao, but the moment he saw Xu Ze protecting him, he suddenly regretted it.If he could be stronger, maybe Xu Ze wouldn't have to suffer with him.

It seems that He Tao also saw Shi Yan's glance at Xu Ze, because Shi Yan noticed that He Tao followed his gaze towards Xu Ze, then suddenly laughed wantonly, and took out a handkerchief from his pocket Wiping his face very gracefully, he leaned into Shiyan's ear and said softly: "Oh, it's really bad. I even found out your secret, and you are too careless. In this way, what to do will be interesting Woolen cloth?"

He Tao is like a pervert.

He stripped Xu Ze down to a pair of underwear, and hung him at the high warehouse gate.Xu Ze, who had a delicate face and snow-white skin, was completely exposed to the eyes of those disgusting men.

Meeting Xu Ze's gaze, Shi Yan rushed towards the gate angrily, but was stopped by several men, punched and kicked.

Shi Yan stood up to fight back, was knocked down again, was kicked heavily on the knee joint, and fell to his knees.The men pulled his hair, forced his mouth open, unzipped it far away, and pissed into his mouth.He gritted his teeth and closed his mouth, and the men slapped him hard in the face until Shi Yan's face was swollen and the corners of his mouth were bleeding.

The men tossed him away and returned to where he had come from.

Shi Yan covered his chest and squinted his eyes to look from afar, while Xu Ze stared at him without blinking with deep pain and pity in his eyes.

He Tao twitched one corner of his mouth and smiled.

Shi Yan understood that He Tao didn't intend to kill him, he wanted Shi Yan to choose to leave or stay.Leave, he is safe, Xu Ze's fate can be imagined.If he stayed, he would have to endure all the humiliation, beatings and scolding, and he would never be able to show his back hoof again.

For a moment, strong self-esteem really enveloped him, and he almost exhausted all his strength to move back and leave this place where the devil was raging.

Immediately, he was too scared to move by the thought of losing Xu Ze.

He heard He Tao talking and laughing loudly at Liang Qi, but his eyes never left him.

He didn't want to look at them, so he turned his head and looked intently at Xu Ze there.Xu Ze's expression calmed down, as usual when they were two, staring at him with a faint smile on his lips.At that moment, it seemed that there were only the two of them left in the world, and no one could get in.

Xu Ze mouthed to him, "Brother Yan, let's go." He wanted to wave his hand, but his body couldn't break free from the rope, so he could only shake his head hard, repeating that mouthing to him over and over again.

Brother Yan, let's go.

Brother Yan, let's go.

With a bang, Shi Yan bent his legs, knelt down towards He Tao, lay down on his stomach, and hit his head heavily on the ground.

"Please--"
