Chapter 23： Confrontation between two men

After Jian Mei sent the message, he could be said to be refreshed, as if he had opened up the second line of Ren and Du. In fact, there may be some things that he could be aware of, but after Lu Xing called him, he seemed to suddenly think He used to avoid him, but now it’s different. Why does Jian Changjia stay at home for five or six days when the National Day holiday is ten days? And the village is so big that he can’t escape wherever he wants to go. Isn’t it just your own good opportunity?

that is…

I don't know what to do to make my brother not hate himself that much.

evening

When Jian Mei was eating downstairs, the wind was blowing outside the courtyard. Autumn had arrived, and the weather began to cool down slowly, especially the gust of wind that shook the wooden doors.

The old man glanced outside and said, "I'm afraid it will rain tonight."

Jian Mei knew she was going to work: "Then I'll go and put away the herbs in the backyard."

"Go." The old man said to the two young men who were sitting: "Chang Jia, go with the ambiguity and move the shelves back to the pharmacy. Do you know if the doors and windows are locked?"

Jian Changjia frowned: "I can go alone."

The old man waved his hand: "Let your brother give you a hand to help you with so many words, hurry up!"

Jian Changjia still wanted to refute. As soon as she turned around, she met Jian Mei and was eager to try her. She put down all the bowls for eating, and she was so excited that she wanted to work very much. If she refused, she swallowed her throat.

Jian Mei hurriedly recommended herself: "Brother, take me, I am more familiar with pharmacies!"

"Whatever you want" Jian Changjia stood up and walked out, out of anger: "Just stay away from me."

"Okay."

"I told you to stay away from me, why are you so close?"

"It's not very close." Jian Mo was a palm distance: "There is still so far."

"..."

Packing herbs is also a technical job. Fortunately, Jian Mei has been accustomed to these things since he was a child. She is very quick in her hands and feet, but the shelf for placing herbs is a bit laborious and cumbersome to put away. He wants to help carry it, but Jian Changjia pushes people. Open, lifted the shelf, and said to him disgustedly: "Don't get in the way, move your herbs."

Jian Mei looked worriedly next to him: "This is very heavy, I'll help you."

"You think everyone is like your little chicken." Jian Changjia glared at him. When the teenager came during the day, he was still wearing a shirt with a short neckline. I don't know why, but he changed to a long neckline. Lean covered most of the horrible scar, but his mouth was still as poisonous as during the day: "Just take care of yourself."

Simply ignorant and come back to move lighter herbs.

The wind at night was getting colder and colder. His physique was indeed poor. When another cool breeze blew, he couldn't help but lowered his head and whispered, "See!"

The sound is so small that you can't hear it if you are not careful.

Jian Mei had transported the herbs for one trip, and when he was about to carry the herbs for the second time, Jian Changjia at the back had already taken the rest of the herbs. The young man had just finished carrying the shelf and was covered in sweat, but he did not choose to rest. Instead, he started to do work that belonged to his younger brother.

Jian Mei rushed up and said, "I'll come."

Jian Changjia didn't let it go: "While staying there, you are struggling with your efficiency."

He was moving things forward, but after a few steps he didn't hear Jian Mei's answer. He hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help turning his head, but saw the child standing under the vine tree looking at him. Autumn The wind was a bit bitter, but he showed a sweet smile to himself: "Brother, thank you."

…

Jian Changjia choked, the wicked young man stood there in a daze. Fortunately, it was so dark that he couldn't see the red ears. He threw a word of "really annoying" and fled and left.

It looks like two people, but in fact Jian Changjia did all the work alone. Jian Mei had to go back to the house to check the doors and windows. The tabby cat, who was always hanging out outside, seemed to feel the breath of a storm that was about to come. He ran back outside and closed the door of the house. The old man went to bed early when he was old, and Jian Mei had to run back to his room.

The wind really blew in the evening, until half an hour later, there began to spread water marks on the windows, and the rain began to fall.

Jian Mei also went to bed early at night because he had to go to school early to go to bed and get up early. He was a little recognizable in the bed. He couldn't sleep well when he first fell asleep in an unfamiliar bed, half-dreaming and half-awake, suddenly—

"Boom!"

A muffled thunder blasted, the rain crackled on the glass, and the towering shadows of the trees in the backyard were stretched by the light of lightning on the floor of the house. At first glance, they looked like a monster with teeth and claws.

Jian Mo was a little frightened. He took out the phone from under the pillow with some care, and glanced at it at 8 o'clock in the evening. The quiet village has fallen into silence. Only the public rain outside seems to be clamoring silently, just in a dream. He also had some nightmares, plus the shadows he saw when he first woke up, he was scared of his courage.

Subconsciously clicked on WeChat, and he sent a message to Lu Xingzuo: "Are you asleep?"

It may be busy over there and did not reply in time.

Jian Mei boldly sent him: "I am a little scared now, really."

"Boom"

There was another sound of lightning outside.

Jian Mei shuddered in fright. The phone fell on the quilt and didn’t know where he slipped. There was Jian Changjia’s room across the wall. He hesitated for a moment. In the end, he quietly picked up the phone and got out of the bed on tiptoe. He opened the door and started knocking on the door of the room. He was not sure if his brother was asleep, but he knocked on the door with a little hope. Before his parents were very busy with work, Jian's father worked overtime and all night to perform surgery on the patient. Shen Meina couldn't come back from the crew.

The babysitter at home sometimes needs to go home when something has something to do. Occasionally when it rains, he will quietly rush to find his brother to sleep. Later, after that incident, Jian Changjia stopped talking about taking him to sleep. Will not pay attention to him.

After knocking on the door for a while, Jian Mei was a little discouraged. Just when he was about to give up, he clicked and the door of the room opened. Jian Changjia was still wearing pajamas, and she looked at the door with annoyance. Outsider: "What do you do if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?"

Jian Mei was half a head smaller than him, and first shrank slightly, and her little white face was worried: "I want to sleep with you."

?

Jian Changjia was a little unbelievable: "What did you say?"

Jian Mei pursed her lips, after all she said: "I...I said I want to sleep with you."

Jian Changjia immediately retorted: "No!"

"Why..."

"There is no why." Jian Changjia leaned against the door, expressionless: "I am different from my parents, I am not used to you, where do you like to sleep today, don't come to me."

What this passage is saying is simply, decisive and merciless.

Jian Changjia felt very imposing, but when she lowered her head, she met Jian Mei's eyes. They were eyes full of dependence on herself. At this moment, there were some injuries in them. For no reason, her face was a little pale. The child in front of him It seemed that the lips trembled and I wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Jian Mei only said softly at the end: "I see."

Jian Changjia's eyes moved down, suspiciously: "Where are your shoes?"

Jian Mei lowered her head and saw her bare feet, and answered honestly: "Forgot to wear it."

"Your pig's brain?" Jian Chang's family scolded him, very angry: "What kind of body you don't count, why don't you come out without shoes?"

Jian Mei was stunned by the yelling. He stayed there for a few seconds, then his eyes gradually turned red, and he resisted the trembling sound: "I'm sorry."

"Boom"

Another lightning flashed across

The reflection of the tree outside was swaying crazily through the glass window of the corridor, and Jian Mei shivered nervously, and subconsciously stepped forward two steps and pulled Jian Changjia's arm against it, like a small animal seeking to lean on.

Jian Changjia stiffened. He was a little far away. He didn't realize it. When he got close at the moment, he realized that Jian Mei's hands were so cold and his body was shaking slightly. He hesitated and said, "Are you still afraid of thunder?"

Jian Mei nodded obediently.

Jian Chang laughed and sneered, saying that he was "not promising"

This matter can’t be completely blamed on Jian Mei. The primary school Jian Changjia went to was a full-time school with dormitory when she was young. At that time, Jian Mei was at home. Because her parents were busy at work, it was the babysitter who took care of Jian Mei, which everyone did not expect. Yes, the babysitter was not as good as the introduction. On the contrary, when it thundered and rained, he went out privately because he had something to do. In order to prevent ignorance from being lost, he shut the child in the house and warned him that he would be a monster if he was not obedient. Grabbed away.

It happened that the thunderstorm was too heavy that day, and there was a power outage in the community.

After being locked up in the dark room for a whole night, no one could imagine how Jian Mei, who was less than five years old, lived.

Jian Mei stood in the corridor, and he tugged at Jian Changjia's clothes corner: "Brother..."

"what?"

"I'm a little cold."

"Nonsense, I would be cold if labor and capital are not wearing shoes."

Jian Mei wanted to say something. Suddenly, she was beaten up and hugged. Jian Changjia exercised all the year round. She carried him like a little chicken, and threw him on her bed in a rude manner, and then said, "Don't stand outside anymore. If I catch a cold tomorrow, I will be blamed on me. When the time comes, my parents will be nagging endlessly, and I will be so annoying!"

Jian Mei got into the quilt skillfully and then showed his head to look at him: "No, no, I'm not that weak."

Jian Changjia glared at him viciously, and then realized that if Jian Mei had covered his own quilt, he would have no quilt. This idiot, who came to sleep without taking the quilt and pillow, was so stupid!

Thinking about it, he still told Jian Mei to be honest and wait for him to go to the next room to get the bedding. Although there is a wall, Jian Mei’s small room is obviously smaller. The quilt in the house is wrapped into a ball, like a small animal. She was too scared, so she built a safe nest for herself. Jian Changjia smiled at the corner of her mouth and came over to get the quilt.

"Patter"

Something fell on the floor, it was a mobile phone.

Jian Changjia hesitated and picked it up. At exactly this moment, the screen of the phone turned on, and it was a WeChat message prompt:

【What's wrong】

【Where are you】

Because Jian Mei uttered a few words that he was particularly afraid of, simulating ambiguous words, so that Lu Xingwang who saw the news couldn't figure it out. Thinking of the last time he was lost in the small woods like this, then this time there shouldn't have been an accident. However, the child never responded to the news, which made people even more worried. After hesitating, Lu Xingzuo pressed the button to make a call.

The incoming WeChat call vibrates on the phone. Jian Changjia is holding the phone and wondering who the big brother is. It doesn't look like the name of a classmate, right? Is anyone really calling this name now? Is it possible that there is a scammer who deceives little boys specifically on the Internet? Sending messages in the middle of the night is unpredictable at first glance. The brothers under the world may have a calf-protecting mentality, and they always suspect a wave of unidentified people.

Finally, the call was connected

Jian Changjia's tone was a little suspicious: "Hey, who are you."

Lu Xingzuo's originally calm complexion instantly became cold, and the ink in the young boy's eyes was dark. If anyone sees his current appearance, he will definitely be a little panicked. It is like the horror only when the territories of extremely dangerous wild beasts are violated. At the scene, he spoke with a cold voice: "Who are you again?"
