Shi Yan couldn't remember how much he spent to convince old man Guan not to force Xu Ze to stay, he only remembered that he was holding Xu Ze's hand tightly all the time.When he took Xu Ze out, he felt a little depressed and his mouth was dry.

He looked at the vegetables, rock sugar, oatmeal, and apples he was holding in one hand, and Xu Ze, who was holding him with the other hand, stopped suddenly, and Xu Ze also stopped, tilting his head and looking at him suspiciously.

"Xiao Ze," he squatted in front of Xu Ze, licked his lips, and tried his best to organize his words, "I know I can't give you anything now. But I'm working hard, so you have to believe in our future Life is bound to get better. So, you..."

"Brother," Xu Ze interrupted him, shaking his head and laughing, "I have always believed in my brother. My brother has worked hard to take care of me. When I grow up a bit, I can also build a house to earn money for my brother."

A big stone in his heart suddenly disappeared, Shi Yan nodded Xu Ze's forehead, and said with a smile: "Little idiot, how much can you earn by building a house? My brother is waiting for you to finish your studies, come out of school, and earn a lot of money."

"School?" Xu Ze was a little uncertain.

"Yeah, school." Shi Yan stood up and pulled Xu Ze to continue walking, "In the future, Xiao Ze will be a college student, then a master's degree, a doctor's degree..."

Shi Yan felt that the light above his head was shining brightly, making his heart burn hot.That's right, he is not afraid of how hard it is, nor is he afraid of what he needs to pay to achieve such a goal, he just... doesn't want anyone to interfere in his and Xu Ze's life.

But even though Shi Yan thought so, Old Man Guan still helped.Shi Yan has no father or mother, and he doesn't know where it came from. Naturally, it is a black household.Take Xu Ze who suddenly appeared, they are a pair of black households.

Checking the household registration and ID card is not very strict these days, but if Shi Yan wants to live with Xu Ze by himself, he must register for a household registration.

Before Shi Yan could react, the old man Guan had already notified the people working in the police station, and the household registration was immediately issued.Shi Yan and Xu Ze were all "adopted" under the old man's name.

There was no way to delay the delay, so I had to silently accept such an arrangement.It would be easier for me to work in the city if I had a registered permanent residence.

The weather is getting warmer day by day, and it will be a little hot to wear a padded jacket.

Shi Yan was taken by the younger brother to take over a few more jobs, and the money in his pocket finally accumulated to more than 120 yuan.After subtracting the money that went to the old man's house to buy vegetables a few times and left there secretly, he still looks like he is in his early hundred years.

It was getting darker and later, and at [-]:[-] in the afternoon, the sky slowly darkened, and the last afterglow disappeared below the horizon.

Shi Yan sat on the bed, Xu Ze was next to him, and in front of the two of them was a blackboard that Shi Yan made with asphalt glue.Shi Yan wrote the formula on the blackboard, and Xu Ze wrote down the answer.Every time he saw Shi Yan showing an appreciative smile, Xu Ze would grin his mouth and show his white teeth.

Putting down the blackboard and chalk, Shi Yanyan hugged Xu Ze.Xu Ze also put his arms around Shi Yan's neck, and put his head in Shi Yan's neck.Shi Yan smiled. These days, this kid has not lived up to his expectations at all, and he has become more and more intimate with him.

Shi Yan brushed Xu Ze's hair away and kissed him on the top of the ear.Xu Ze crawled back and forth in his arms as if he was ticklish, sat up suddenly after a while, and kissed Shi Yan heavily on the cheek.

"Brother..." Xu Ze called out in a low voice.

"Huh?" Shi Yan looked at him subconsciously.Since his rebirth, Xu Ze no longer called him "Brother Yan" like in his previous life, but only called him "Brother".I don't care about the time delay, I think this name is more friendly.Maybe it was because in his previous life he was still thinking about how to drive Xu Ze away all day long, so Xu Ze was still quite afraid of him.

"Brother." Xu Ze looked up at him, his eyes shining brightly.

When Shi Yan climbed onto the bed, Xu Ze threw himself into his arms, like a quirky, cute little fox.

"Yeah." Shi Yan rubbed his hair with a smile, and watched him turn over and lie down, pillow on his lap, looking up at him, smiling.

"The hair is a bit long." Shi Yan put his hand into Xu Ze's long hair, fiddled with it twice, and said softly.

"Well, brother cut it for me." Xu Ze took Shi Yan's hand and placed it on his forehead.

"Okay, but it needs to be cut during the day." Shi Yan said.When Xu Ze was young, his appearance was white and delicate. When his eyes were wide open, he always made people laugh.

"Why? Can't you cut it now?" Xu Ze was a little reluctant.

Shi Yan squeezed Xu Ze's cheeks, and said with a smile, "The light is dim, I'm afraid that if I don't hold the scissors properly, I will cut Ozawa's ears."

Knowing that he was joking, Xu Ze rolled over, jumped up and sat on Shi Yan's lap, pinched Shi Yan's cheek, and pressed Shi Yan's nose into a pig's nostril, laughing while playing.After a while, seeing that Shi Yan was not angry, but just looked at him with a smile, Xu Ze felt embarrassed again, blushing, buried in Shi Yan's neck and refused to get up.

Shi Yan looked amused at his appearance, but was afraid that Xu Ze would become angry from embarrassment, so he suppressed the curvature of the corner of his mouth, hugged him tightly, and called in a low voice, "Xiao Ze."

"Huh?" Xu Ze responded after a while.

"Does Ozawa want to go to school?" Shi Yan asked.

Xu Ze was shocked suddenly, and Shi Yan clearly felt the body trembling in his arms. He couldn't help but put his arms in his arms again, and asked again, "Does Xiao Ze want to go to school? Huh?"

Xu Ze bit his lips, and in a soft voice, put his arms around Shi Yan's neck, his breath burning hotly on Shi Yan's collarbone, "I don't want to. As long as my brother is with Xiao Ze, Xiao Ze will be very happy. "

Shi Yan chuckled, looking up at the ceiling with a hole in it, his heart was extremely warm and comfortable, "Well, I am very happy with Ozawa too. But, I still really want Ozawa to go to school. I want to see Ozawa Ze walked into the school with his classmates with his schoolbag on his back. He wanted to see Ozawa sitting in the classroom with everyone and listening to the teacher’s lecture. He wanted to see Ozawa come back with his report card and asked me for a reward. Book……"

Xu Ze's eyes were shining brightly, and he stared at Shi Yan for a long time.

"Ozawa is my most important person, my only relative. Then, is Ozawa willing to help my brother realize his wish?" Shi Yan asked with a smile.

Xu Ze buried himself in Shi Yan's arms again, his two thin arms clasping Shi Yan's waist firmly.After a long time, Shi Yan heard a weak "hmm" like a cat meowing in his arms, and then smiled.

There is still some time before school starts in September, and the rainy season has not yet arrived.Shi Yan wanted to take advantage of this time to hurry up and do some more work, earn more money for Xu Ze's tuition, and also wanted to find a sturdy house around the school.The weather is hot, and both he and Xu Ze need to buy some clothes.He was better, and he had some old clothes in his pocket.But when Xu Ze appeared, he was only wearing cotton clothes, and he was wearing them when he changed clothes.

Originally, the old man had already called the younger brother to come and pack up Shi Yan and Xu Ze's things, but Shi Yan refused to let him go.In the end, the old man had nothing to do, touched Shi Yan's head and sighed, took a deep look at him, and went home.After that, the old man Guan never asked to do anything for them.

Shi Yan, no matter when he was a child or when he grew up, he has a bullish temper that doesn't look back when he hits the south wall.This rebirth somewhat brought back the male chauvinism of the previous life who would rather starve to death than rely on others and the strong possessive desire for Xu Ze, and became more and more stubborn, determined to rely only on himself to guard this small home.

The matter of finding a house near the school had to fall on Sun Chen in the end. After all, Sun Chen's father was the principal of the elementary school, and he must be very clear about the resources around the school.It would be the best if he could find his father, Sun Liguo, through Sun Chen for help.

Thinking about renting a house and paying rent, Shi Yan still decided to procrastinate a little bit, at least for a few more days.Rent is not expensive these days, especially if you have Sun Chen's relationship, it should be cheaper. Time delay estimated that it would be about 20 yuan a month.He doesn't need a big house, just a small kitchen and a small bedroom.

Shi Yan wanted to take advantage of these few days to work another job.It's a pity that the busy season of farming is approaching, and there has been no major construction work recently.After wandering around the village for a long time, I didn't even see my second brother, so I just left the village and walked around.

After walking for a while, I saw a few uncles who were building the wall together at Liu San'er's house walking towards this side, and Shi Yan's thoughts changed.These families have a large population and the remaining labor force.Pointing to work outside to earn some expenses besides selling food for the family.Even during busy farming season, they have to work outside.Follow them and you will find work.

"Uncle Han, Uncle Li, Uncle Sun." Shi Yan approached and called with a smile.

"Yo, Xiaoyan, what a coincidence," several uncles greeted him with a smile. The small diligence of Shiyan before left a deep impression on them. After greeting Shiyan, Uncle Han turned to the side again. Xu Ze smiled and said, "Xiao Ze is here too, are you going out to play with brother?"

Xu Ze had seen them before, and he was not afraid. He also smiled obediently, raised his head and said, "Hello, uncles, my brother is out to earn money, and I will accompany him."

"Yo, Ozawa is so good." Uncle Han patted Xu Ze's head and smiled lovingly.Uncle Li and Uncle Sun looked at each other and smiled.

"Xiao Yan, are you short of money again? Did you spend all the money you earned on delicious food?" Uncle Han turned to Time Yan and teased.

Shi Yan secretly despised it in his heart, but he still said seriously, "No, I've saved it up. In autumn, I want Xiao Ze to go to elementary school."

His serious tone caught the uncles for a moment. They looked at each other, seeing the surprise on each other's faces. Uncle Han couldn't help asking, "Do you want Xiao Ze to go to elementary school?"

"En." Shi Yan replied without hesitation.

"Do you know how much it costs to go to school?" Uncle Han said, there are many children in their family, and there is no guarantee that every child can go to school.If the second child has to go up, the eldest has to come down.The third child has to go to school, and the second child has to drop out of school.After earning for decades, it would be good to train a child to go to school, and the rest of the children would be able to read and write.But this 13-year-old boy in front of him actually wants to send another child to school, isn't this a fantasy?But the look of course on Shi Yan's face made people have to believe that what he said was true.

"I know, the tuition and miscellaneous fees for five years of elementary school are about 370." Shi Yan said.He calculated it according to the charging level of the village primary school, and added the school uniform fee. In fact, it was far worse than the town primary school and the city primary school.That's all he said, because he didn't plan to let Xu Ze finish his studies in the village primary school, because the village primary school does not teach English, and there is only a five-year system, but the primary schools in the city are all six-year, starting from the third grade. Just teach English.

Xu Ze will definitely go to junior high school in the city, he can't let Xu Ze lose at the starting line.And he also believed that in two years' time, he would have enough money to take Xu Ze to study in the city.

Really know!Uncle Han was taken aback.But I also feel that this child is being a little silly. Besides tuition and miscellaneous fees, he always needs food and drink, as well as money for notebooks and pens. How can it be just 370 yuan?But seeing Shi Yan's appearance, he couldn't bear to hit him, so he had no choice but to keep the words in his stomach.

Uncle Li on the side said, "Then why don't you go to school by yourself, but send Ozawa there?"

Shi Yan turned his head to look at Xu Ze, and said with a smile, "I'm older than him, how can there be a 13-year-old boy? And Xiao Ze is very smart, and he will definitely do well in school."

Hearing his childish words, the three uncles all laughed.

Uncle Li saw that Shi Yan was darker than when he saw it last time, and his body was much stronger.Maybe it's because he did too much physical work, his stature grew like a wicker, and it reached under his nose in a few days.If no one talked about his age, he really looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.

The more I watched it, the more I liked it. Suddenly, Uncle Li had an idea and blurted out, "Do you want Xiaoyan to work with us?"

Shi Yan's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "What job?"

Uncle Han frowned, patted Uncle Li, and said, "What are you talking about? He's still young."

Shi Yan looked at Uncle Han and said, "I'm not young anymore, I have to take good care of Ozawa." Then he turned to look at Uncle Li and said, "Uncle Li, what do you want me to do? As long as I can earn money, I'm not afraid of hard work, nor tired."

Xu Ze held Shi Yan's hand tightly, and Shi Yan turned around and smiled at him.

Seeing him and Xu Ze's appearance, Uncle Han couldn't utter the words of rejection.Seeing that Uncle Li looked at him with some jokes, he felt a little embarrassed.After hesitating for a while, he said, "He's still young, didn't the foreman say they won't accept children?"

"It's okay," Uncle Li thought, but he was not afraid. "The foreman has a little friendship with me. That guy has a sharp mouth and a bean curd heart. I will chat with him in private. It should be nothing. Then we will insist that the delay is already 16 He's 13 years old, so don't tell anyone about his [-]-year-old, isn't that all right? Look at Shi Yan, he's about the same size as your Huahua, isn't he?"

Uncle Han thought so too, but he was still a little apprehensive.After all, Shi Yan is a child after all, if something goes wrong with this tiredness, how can they be responsible?

Shi Yan immediately stepped up, "Uncle, I won't work for a long time. It's only about ten days. After these ten days, I'll find something else to do."

Seeing his anxious look, Uncle Han chuckled, "Do you know what you are doing? You are so active? Our job is tiring even for grown-ups."

Shi Yan was startled, then asked in a daze, "What kind of work?"

"Throwing bricks, what can you do?" Several uncles laughed.

"Adobe throwing?" Shi Yan recalled the impression of throwing adobe bricks. It seemed that it was an extremely labor-intensive job, but Shi Yan replied straightforwardly, "Okay, I'll do it!"

His little adult appearance made the uncles all smile after being stunned for a moment.
