Rebirth Delay

But after all, he is not a precious person. Shi Yan has been like a pebble on the side of the road since he was a child. If he is caught stealing something to eat, he will be beaten up, or he will jump into the river in winter to take a bath. As if playing, when a gust of wind blows past, he is almost fully recovered.

This time the heat and cold came fiercely, but there was thunder and rain, and when Xu Ze touched Shi Yan's forehead again in the middle of the night, the abnormal heat from before had faded away, and Sun Xiu, Tang Anmin and the others went back to sleep.

The next morning, when Shi Yan woke up, his head was still a little dizzy and his throat was a little dry, but his body didn't feel cold and hot for a while.Turning around to look, Xu Ze was lying beside him, with faint tears on his face, his brows were slightly frowned, his arms were tightly clasped with both hands, and he was sleeping extremely restlessly.

Shi Yan felt distressed and annoyed, and was afraid of infecting Xu Ze with the cold, so he resisted the urge to hold the child tightly in his arms, and sat up on the head of the bed.After watching for a while, Shi Yan couldn't help but put his fingers between Xu Ze's eyebrows, and rubbed them gently.In the previous life, Xu Ze's expression always appeared when he returned with injuries all over his body.

He sighed slightly.Shi Yan stared intently at Xu Ze who was leaning towards him again, but his mind was throbbing with pain.

Only now did Shi Yan realize that he himself did have all the memories of his previous life, including the encounters, acquaintances, shared adversities with Xu Ze, and the days when every mouthful of porridge had to be shared, so after rebirth, the first time he met Xu Ze The unreasonable trust that he quickly showed, he naturally used the reason that "there is a thread between him and Xu Ze" to persuade himself to ignore it, and he felt a little doomed in his heart.

In the last life, Xu Ze relied on him almost flatteringly, but Shi Yan still didn't feel Xu Ze's defense until nearly half a year later.But in this life... He thought it was his gentle attitude that comforted Xu Ze.

But now it seems that Xu Ze is still uneasy.

He couldn't even imagine the extent of Xu Ze's uneasiness.

Shi Yan closed his eyes and recalled that morning in the town hospital, but he couldn't think of why Xu Ze accepted him so frankly.Isn't it a strange thing to be indifferent to one's own situation and follow a stranger home?Even for himself, it is unlikely, no, it is completely impossible that he does not have this kind of vigilance.

Does this... mean that Xu Ze is still watching him and guarding against him deep in his heart?

Shi Yan covered his forehead, not daring to think about it.

Suddenly tightening his hands, he heard Xu Ze's nervous and childish voice, "Brother, do you have a headache again?"

Shi Yan was stunned, put his hand down, and showed a smile, "It doesn't hurt anymore, I'm hungry."

Xu Ze was puzzled, "Really?" Would hungry people cover their heads?

Shi Yan chuckled, and felt that what he said was a bit strange, so he simply put it aside, got out of bed, put on his shoes, stood up straight, turned around in front of Xu Ze, and said, "No, look at my brother." No?"

Xu Ze really looked around, and finally fell into Shi Yan's gentle and smiling eyes, and then he smiled with a small mouth, but his eye circles were a little red, stretched his hands forward, and choked up, "Brother, Don't get sick in the future, I'm afraid."

Shi Yan paused, the smile in his eyes became gentler and deeper, he stepped forward and hugged Xu Ze, buried his head in the hollow of Xu Ze's shoulder and took a deep breath, a sweet scent came to his nostrils, he didn't know the hidden worries in his heart I didn't feel it was buried deeply, but I was left with a feeling of comfort.Raising his head, staring into those bright black eyes, Shi Yan promised in a deep voice, "Well, as long as Ozawa is by my side, I will never get sick again. I promise."

Xu Ze hugged Shi Yan's neck tightly, resting his head on Shi Yan's shoulder, and didn't make a sound for a long while.

When eating in the morning, Shi Yan was scolded by Sun Xiuhao, and even Tang Anmin's face was dark and ugly.Shi Yan was a little helpless, with a bitter face, from the time he sat down and started to eat until he finished eating, he kept his head down and acted honestly, without any intention of refuting.

In the end, it was Xu Ze who acted like a good boy and coaxed Sun Xiu to divert his attention. Only then did he have a chance to breathe, and hurriedly escaped from the front yard.

There was supposed to be extra popsicles on this day, but under the triple offensive of Sun Xiu, Tang Anmin and Xu Ze, it turned into floating clouds.Shi Yan stared at the [-] big bars by the courtyard gate for a moment, then saw Sun Tong walking in.As soon as Sun Tong saw him sitting in the courtyard, he quickened his pace and walked over, and said with a smile, "Brother Shi Yan, hello!"

When he smiled, he showed a few black gaping teeth, which added a lot of stupidity.

Shi Yan nodded, and then heard Xu Ze's brisk footsteps moving over.Seeing Sun Tong, Xu Ze was very happy. He ran over and said, "How are you, Tong Tong, did you come to see my brother? He is well, thanks to your brother going out to buy medicine."

Not wanting to listen to Xu Ze's words, Sun Tong bit his lip with an expression of wanting to cry.

Xu Ze was taken aback, and exchanged a glance with Shi Yan.The two looked carefully, only to find that Sun Tong's eyes were red and swollen, as if he had been crying for a long time, but he hadn't seen clearly in the glare of the sun.

Xu Ze was a little at a loss, opened his mouth and looked anxious, but he didn't know what to say, so he finally had to look to Shi Yan for help.

Shi Yan rubbed his hair, nodded, and waved to Sun Tong.Sun Tong took a few steps forward and arrived in front of Shi Yan.Shi Yan slowed down and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Brother... my brother..." Sun Tong pouted his lips and blinked vigorously, and finally burst into tears, "Brother was beaten...woke up...couldn't get up, told me...I'll come and see Look...you..."

Shi Yan frowned, seeing Xu Ze rushing into the house in a hurry, fetching a towel and coming out to wipe his grandson's tears, he said seriously, "Who hit your brother, why did he hit him?"

"Yes...it's Dad. It's late to go back, my aunt...is sick with anger." Sun Tong looked up and cooperated with Xu Ze, but he was afraid that he was very wronged, so he hiccupped and shrugged his shoulders in a short while. Shrugging, the tears wiped and flowed, looking a little pitiful.

Time delay frowned.Originally, he would never meddle in the family affairs of other people's families, especially if the elders taught the younger ones, so there was no outsider to intervene.But it happened that Sun Han helped him get the medicine under the sun, and Sun Tong also helped him a little bit.This "going back late" is probably his responsibility.

Shi Yan looked gloomy, so he hated being in debt to others the most.At times like this, he has to rack his brains to find ways to repay, which is the most intolerable thing for him.At this time you have received the favor of others, but at that time you don't know what price you will pay.

The housekeeper's young and old, Sun Chen, Sun Xiu, Tang Anmin, and now the two brothers Sun Han.

Shi Yan's complexion was not good, and Xu Ze didn't dare to say too much.Subconsciously, he also felt that his brother could not be of much help in this kind of matter, as if all he could do was to comfort his grandson.Otherwise, come and beat up that aunt?

"I'm sorry." Shi Yan said in a muffled voice, "If you hadn't helped me get the medicine, you wouldn't be late going back."

"No, it's not." Sun Tong quickly shook his head in denial, with disgust and resentment that didn't fit his age, "That stinking old woman just doesn't like me and my brother, so she bullies us every time she comes, and my brother always protects me. That's why I was beaten by my father."

Shi Yan was puzzled, and then became a little angry, "Isn't your father out of his mind, his son doesn't know pain?"

Sun Tong seemed to have accumulated a lot of grievances, and he didn't refute Shi Yan. Instead, he shed tears in agreement, "Papa is usually fine. Whenever that old witch comes, he beats people. Hit my brother and me." , and beat my mother."

Shi Yan punched the ground with his fist, stirring up a lot of dust.

Xu Ze was taken aback, he quickly knelt down and grabbed Shi Yan's hand to look at it, it was a little red, but no blood was seen.

Shi Yan hates men who beat women the most.

"Brother?" Xu Ze called out cautiously.Shi Yan's face was a little distorted, and the strong hostility between his brows was like a tangible dagger, spreading in all directions, provoking cold sweat all over his body.

Shi Yan was stunned for a moment, seeing Xu Ze's hesitant expression, he quickly put away that hostility, put on a peaceful look, touched Xu Ze's small face, and comforted, "Xiao Ze, don't be afraid, brother is just a little angry. "

Xu Ze nodded in a daze, as if he hadn't recovered yet.

Sun Tong grinned reluctantly, biting his lip, and said in a low voice, "Then I'm leaving." He hung his head, his expression was gloomy, and his back seemed very thin.

Shi Yan pursed his lips, but he still didn't say anything after all.

Looking down at Xu Ze who was holding his wrist tightly and staring at him with big eyes, Shi Yan's eyes were deep.With this responsibility in his hands, he can no longer act impulsively like in his previous life.

Besides, Shi Yan didn't know how to help the two Sun brothers.

"Brother?" Xu Ze called out in a low voice, and leaned closer to Shi Yan.

"It's okay." Shi Yan rubbed his hair, and the expression on his face eased, "Come on, go in and read a book."

"Yeah." Xu Ze nodded obediently, and walked into the room holding Shi Yan's hand.

There are many books on the table in the room, which were brought by Sun Xiugang. They are all the simplest story books in this era, including idiom stories, fables and myths, and so on. It is estimated that her daughter has read them.

"Brother?" Xu Ze patted Shi Yan's arm.

"Fuck!" Shi Yan shook the book in his hand, came back to his senses, turned his face to the side and cursed in a low voice, then suddenly slammed the table and stood up.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Xu Ze hurriedly stood up.

"Xiao Ze, do you want to see Sun Tong's brother?" Shi Yan turned his head and asked.

Xu Ze hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's go!" Shi Yan pushed away the stool, walked to the door and picked up the rainbow umbrella, and when he turned around, Xu Ze was still standing there in a daze.

"Let's go." Shi Yan waved.

Xu Ze slowly opened the corner of his mouth, then overflowed from the corner of his eyes, trotted to Shi Yan's side, grabbed Shi Yan's hand, nodded heavily, "En!"

He ran to the front yard and asked for Sun Xiu's address, Sun Xiu gave a good order and stuffed a can of boiled water before allowing Shi Yan to take Ozawa out.It was nearly noon now, the sky was dazzlingly bright, and the ground was glistening white. I felt a little regretful about my impulsiveness before I walked the ten-meter delay.

Who knows why he always thought of Sun Han's face and Sun Tong's eyes when he was studying for Xu Ze? !

"Is it hot?" Shi Yan asked Xu Ze.

"It's not hot. Brother, why did Sun Tong's aunt beat him and his brother?" Xu Ze asked a little puzzled.

"I don't know." Shi Yan said.The premature loss of his relatives gave him no chance to understand the complex relationship between these relatives. Xu Ze was the only person he had close contact with in his previous life.

Fortunately, Sun Han's house is not far away. After walking for about ten minutes, Xu Ze arrived after drinking water twice.

In the middle of Sun Han’s house is a field half the size of a basketball court. On the west side of the field is a kitchen made of sun-shaped cement bricks. Several holes exposed horizontally by the cement bricks are used as ventilation holes.To the north is a large tile-roofed house, which is divided into two small rooms, which can be seen clearly at a glance from the door.To the east is a row of thick trees, and under the tree is a stone mill, which is usually used in the village to press the field or rice husk.The south side of the field is connected to the road, and the south side of the road is a piece of land. It looks like it has just been turned over, a few ditches have been dug, and a thin layer of soil has been sprinkled. At this time, it is good to plant some autumn cabbage or autumn radish. .

Shi Yan took Xu Ze to take a look into the room, but he didn't see anyone, and no one answered when he called for Sun Tong.After looking around, he saw a few people hunched over and buried their heads in the field. Shi Yan went to the edge of the field to have a look. It was Sun Tong and a man and a woman who were busy.

"Sun Tong." Xu Ze called out.

Hearing this sound, the three of them raised their heads to look at Shi Yan and Xu Ze.Sun Tong was the first to laugh, forgetting that his hands were covered in mud, and wiped his sweat directly on his face, and said happily, "Ozawa, Brother Shiyan."

The man was about 40 years old. He glanced at Sun Tong, then took a closer look at Shi Yan and Xu Ze, and said, "Who are you?"

Shi Yan smiled and said, "Uncle, hello. I am Shi Yan, and this is Ozawa. Ozawa will be in the first grade when school starts, and Tongtong and Tongtong will be classmates in the future, so we came to say hello in advance. "

The man glanced at Sun Tong again, and Sun Tong lowered his head subconsciously and shrunk his neck. Then he heard him say with a smile, "Your classmate came to see you, why don't you go talk to him?"

Sun Tong raised his head abruptly, and caught a glimpse of the familiar tenderness deep in the man's eyes. The fear in his heart disappeared all of a sudden. He nodded immediately, rushed all the way from the field ridge, and stood in front of Shi Yan and Xu Ze with a smile on his face.

The three of them walked all the way under the shade of the tree before Shi Yan asked, "Is that your parents?"

Sun Tong nodded.

"Your father doesn't look like he can beat people, but he looks like he has studied." Shi Yan glanced at the man bent over to work again in the field, and said strangely.

"Well, my father is a high school graduate. If he has money, he will go to college!" Sun Tong raised his head proudly, but then lowered his head again, and his voice weakened, "Because we owe my aunt A lot of money, so..."

Time delay frowned.Could it be that the last time Sun Han secretly expressed his desire to get a share of the pie, was it because of his family situation?
