round spring

Xiao Yuan'er grew up with her elder brother, and what Brother Chun said made me feel safe for many years.

——An Yuan's Diary

"Is your cousin still human? If you don't want to take you back, why didn't you say it earlier? How could you be left alone at the train station? It's so chaotic outside during the Chinese New Year. If you lose it, what will you do? If traffickers abduct you , Selling to the mountains, selling to other people’s homes is considered good, some people may even discount your arms and legs, make you beg for food on the street, or sell you to black factories, lock you up, you’re stupid Afterwards, you will be forced to work illegally for the rest of your life, and you will never know how you will die in the end..."

Shen Xingchun's dark eyes were burning, and he suppressed his voice and scolded Li Xiuzhen for a long time.

The more An Yuan listened, the more frightened she became, she kept her head down, and tears kept falling on the quilt.

Shen Xingchun scolded again. After being tired of scolding, he took a deep breath and asked Anyuan fiercely: "What about you? How did you come back by yourself?"

An Yuan still lowered his head, "I didn't know what to do in the end, so I showed the note that my brother wrote me the address to the uncle at the ticket gate of the train station. The uncle was very nice and found me a car he knew. Yes, I got off at the entrance of the village for the car to solicit passengers from these villages."

Shen Xingchun pressed An Yuan's feet under his legs and covered them, the expression on his face remained unchanged, his brows were pressed against his eyes, the bottom of his eyes were deep and cold, he held An Yuan's hand to warm him up for a while, and said : "The little man knows how to ask people, and can find the way back, so he is not too stupid."

"I'm too scared." An Yuan whispered, with a heavy nasal sound in her voice.

Shen Xingchun rubbed his hands for a while, An Yuan felt that his body had completely warmed up, but his hands and feet began to feel hot and itchy, and the feet that were pressed under Shen Xingchun's calf rubbed against each other, finally rubbing against Shen Xingchun's leg Tickle meat.

Shen Xingchun rubbed his hands for him, felt an itchy calf, stretched his leg, straightened his back, and pressed An Yuan's foot under his calf again, "Don't move around, you'll rub my itchy flesh."

An Yuan said, "I feel a bit itchy on the soles of my feet and toes."

"You deserve it, who told you not to call the door after you came back." Shen Xingchun said angrily, and was so angry that he patted An Yuan's leg heavily through the quilt.

An Yuan lowered his eyelids, closed his mouth and stopped talking, Shen Xingchun rubbed him for a while, then lifted the quilt and crawled out of the bed.

An Yuan watched him leave, and asked with red eyes, "Brother, where are you going?"

Shen Xingchun put his hands on the edge of the kang, stepped on his shoe after getting off the kang, "I'll call someone to sell you, let's see what price you can get."

An Yuan's eyelashes moved a few times, he knew that Shen Xingchun was scaring him, but his chest was still empty, his eyes were already swollen from crying just now, and his eyelids were astringent and heavy, he called out slowly: "Brother..."

"Lie down under the blanket, I'll pour you a cup of hot water, and wash your face with a basin of water." Shen Xingchun walked out pulling on his shoes, "Have you eaten tonight?"

"I haven't eaten." An Yuan replied in a low voice.

"Which one should you eat, pickled cabbage buns or red bean paste buns?" After Shen Xingchun asked, remembering that An Yuan didn't like pickled cabbage buns, he asked himself, "I'll get you red bean paste buns, are they enough?"

"enough."

It was already midnight after An Yuan washed his face and ate the bean paste buns. Shen Xingchun let him soak his feet again, and finally found a tube of chilblain ointment for him, "Don't rub your bottle for a few days, use this Chilblain ointment, apply it every morning, noon and evening, and take care of it carefully. If you really get frostbite, you will freeze your hands and feet every winter in the future. At that time, your hands and feet will be swollen like pig's feet, and they will be cracked and cracked. It hurts and itches when I open my mouth."

An Yuan swallowed, took the chilblain ointment from Shen Xingchun's hand, and carefully applied the chilblain ointment on herself.

The wind outside the window was getting stronger and stronger. Shen Xingchun was still afraid when he remembered that An Yuan was huddled under the wall outside, and pointed to the window that was bang by the wind: "Listen to the wind outside. If I don't go out at night, the snow won't blow." Frozen you to death, this big wind can blow you away, you are smart, you are really stupid..."

After Shen Xingchun finished speaking, this is the end of tonight's anger. He knew that An Yuan's stupidity came from his fear of being abandoned, his confusion and fear of not knowing where to go tomorrow, the stupidity of twisting, and the outside world. Like the old north wind, I know where it comes from, but I don't know where it will stop...

An Yuan didn't make a sound, holding chilblain ointment in his hand, sitting cross-legged on the kang, the hair on his forehead was too long covering his eyes, and the hair on both sides of his temples was limp and pressed against his red ears. He fiddled with it with his hands. Twice, then sat obediently, motionless.

Shen Xingchun looked at his pitiful appearance and didn't say anything else. He took out two quilts that An Yuan had laid on the kang before from the cabinet. He took the quilt from Shen Xingchun's hand and spread it for himself.

Shen Xingchun turned on the lamp after seeing him lying down. An Yuan lay flat, feeling the warmth of the quilt, and opened his eyes thinking about tomorrow in the dark air.

Tonight he can sleep in the warm kang at Shen Xingchun's house, but tomorrow he doesn't know where to go.

Shen Xingchun couldn't fall asleep either, knowing that An Yuan wasn't asleep either, he called softly, "Little man?"

An Yuan turned over and lay on her side, with her arms resting on her neck, and she asked, "What's wrong, brother?"

Shen Xingchun is different from An Yuan, he has completely gone through the period of changing his voice, and with the characteristic deep and bright feeling of a teenager, he said, "From now on, Xiao Yuan'er will stay at my brother's house, Xiao Yuan'er will grow up with my brother... "

An Yuan's eyes became hot, and he pinched the corner of the quilt to cover his eyes, and the breath in his chest was raised into his throat again, choked and painful, and after a long time, he spoke only after his throat was no longer choked: "Grandpa and grandmother……"

Shen Xingchun said: "Grandpa and grandma are going to keep you. After you left today, grandma has been nagging for a long time to return it."

"Really?" An Yuan asked cautiously.

"real."

When Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen came back the next day and saw An Yuan, they were surprised for a long time. The old couple circled around An Yuan and asked them carefully. After hearing what happened yesterday, Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen were angry and scared.

Without further ado, Grandma Shen took An Yuan's hand and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Yuan, just stay at Grandma's house from now on."

Grandpa Shen didn't delay either, he had to let the child's father know about such a big matter of letting An Yuan stay, so he went back to his room and wrote a letter to An Guoqing.

An Yuan hugged her grandma and cried for a long time, and Grandma Shen was so distressed that she touched Xiao Yuan'er's arm and coaxed her for a long time.

Shen Xingchun stood aside with his arms folded. In the end, he couldn't bear to see the crying of the old and the young. He walked over and smiled and patted his grandma, and then patted the little one, "It's all right, don't cry, it's New Year's Eve, Why are you crying?"

Only then did Grandma Shen wipe away her tears, and after calculating that it would be the New Year in a few days, she suddenly thought of Shen Jianjun and Zhao Lihong, and said, "Yes, it will be the New Year soon, and it's time for your parents and younger brother to come back in spring." .”

Thinking of her son and daughter-in-law, Grandma Shen's expression froze, she sighed softly, and then looked up at Shen Xingchun and An Yuan, she knew that there would be a smoky mess behind them.

But the old lady has already made up her mind to pay attention, it is useless for anyone to stop this matter, Shen Xingchun and the others stayed at the beginning, now An Yuan and the others can also stay...
