Running Man's Entertainment Life

Chapter 162 Reunion

Chen Mu doesn't know what other orphanages are like, but in their orphanages, the giving of surnames is very particular.

If there is no mark on the child when it is abandoned, then the time corresponding to the day of discovery will be regarded as the child's birthday, and then the dean will put the surname on the hundred family surnames in front of the child's eyes, and give the surname according to the child's performance.

The surname is Chen, there are only two people with this surname in their orphanage, one is Chen Mu, and the other is a girl five years younger than him, named Chen Xi.

Perhaps because of the same surname, Chen Mu and Chen Xi are very kind. When Chen Xi was very young, the two were almost inseparable. Chen Xi cried as soon as he left Chen Mu. As a last resort, Chen Mu always took it with him. Take her to collect firewood, helper!

In this way, Chen Mu and Chen Xi got along like a biological brother and sister.

Until, after that inevitable accident happened, the brother and sister never saw each other again.

Many years ago, Chen Mu wanted to search for it. He secretly went back to the orphanage and watched from afar. However, he found that the old place was renovated and the old people were replaced by new people. Only the Buddha statue with the broken arm was still standing there. The mountain-moving stone eyes drooped down!

Sadly, Chen Mu turned and passed by like a passerby. Chen Mu, who once thought he would never see Chen Xi again, did not expect to meet again at this time.

"Chen Mu?"

After Chen Mu's words fell, Chen Xi instantly lost the ability to think alone. Looking at Chen Mu who was crying incontinently, she stood stiffly in place and murmured.

Comparing the appearance of the handsome face in front of me with the familiar appearance in my mind, slowly, I can vaguely see the familiar outline emerging, but those lines have become mature!

"elder brother?"

She softly cried in disbelief, then shook her head, still can't believe, is it really a reality to meet today without preparation after years of searching?

Chen Xi pinched his face hard, then grinned in pain, looked up at Chen Mu, and didn't know how to react for a while.

"Silly girl!"

The tears of the long-lost reunion flowed down the handsome face. Chen Mu looked at Chen Xi's silly actions and laughed out loud, forgetting that he was still weak, stood up with the strength he didn't know where he came from, and stretched out his slender palms to rub Rubbing Chen Xi's dry long hair, looking into her dazed eyes, smiled softly, and said with sour eyes: "Sister, don't you remember brother?"

"Really?" Chen Xi looked up at Chen Mu, her thoughts were in a mess at this moment, she was looking forward to the reunion after a long absence, she didn't know why this happened, maybe she still didn't believe it!

"You don't even recognize your brother?"

Chen Mu shifted his gaze and landed on the scar on Chen Xi's left face that affected the beauty, and said guiltily: "Sister, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you work at that time, I'm sorry!"

"Brother!" Hearing this, Chen Xi finally believed that this was his elder brother, and couldn't control his emotions any longer, so he threw himself into Chen Mu's arms, crying out with tears of joy.

"Hey!" Chen Mu shed tears, agreed with a smile, hugged Chen Xi who was close to him with his backhand, smiled warmly, and said, "Silly girl!"

Over the years, time has not obliterated the family relationship between the two, nor has it obliterated those happy or painful memories.

The scar on Chen Xi's face is the most memorable thing in Chen Mu and Chen Xi's mind.

Back then, 12-year-old Chen Mu undertook the heating of the entire orphanage during the winter that had changed that year. He got up early every day and lit a fire to keep warm. At noon, he took cold dry food to fill his stomach, and then continued his rummaging. At night, he tied piles of branches together with ropes, and put one end of the rope on his shoulders. On the ground, the body leaned forward, gritted his teeth, and moved forward vigorously. Behind him, long piles of branches left chaotic traces on the snow, smoothing the footprints of Chen Mu's hard work.

Chen Mu, who was tired with sore arms and legs, had the idea of ​​giving up, but once he gave up, not only would he suffer from the cold, but the other children would also suffer from the cold, so he was trying to persevere, under the worried eyes of other children , He pretended to be fine, got up early and worked late, doing heavy work that was unbearable for a 12-year-old child.

In the early years, the winter in the Northeast was extremely cold, the wind was biting, and the winter was extremely cold. On this snow-white land, the temperature was kept below minus [-] degrees every day.

Every time Chen Mu goes out, he has to wear a thick hat, two thick clothes, thick trousers, and thick cotton shoes. Only his aura eyes are rolling, but even so, Chen Mu's hands and feet are still frozen every day, and once or twice he sneaked up on the back mountain and cried secretly
The dean does not allow other children to help Chen Mu, and the other three children who are over ten years old also have other labor to do, which may not be much lighter than Chen Mu, and there is nothing they can do to help Chen Mu.

But soon, after Chen Mu got up one morning, a little kid who was tightly covered stood at his door, opened his small mouth and breathed into the palm of his hand, and when he saw Chen Mu coming out, his clean little face With a bright smile, that is Chen Xi.

Chen Mu once thought about not letting Chen Xi follow him, and drove her back to the house several times, but as he walked, he found Chen Xi hanging far behind him with his calves, and when he saw Chen Mu turning his head, he showed a bright smile again.

In desperation, Chen Mu could only let her follow, but he didn't allow her to help him, because Chen Xi was only seven years old at the time, and she was still a girl, she didn't have much labor ability at all, and was easily injured.

Chen Xi is also very obedient. When Chen Mu was working, she sat on the branch that Chen Mu had piled up, and watched Chen Mu work quietly with her chin on her chin with her small hands in thick gloves. Maybe she was just afraid that her brother would be too boring. Come and stay with me.

But for a long time without moving, Chen Xi is still colder than Chen Mu, her arms, legs and chin are always trembling from the cold, Chen Mu has no choice but to pretend that she is hot, and put clothes that are bigger than Chen Xi's body on her body, let my sister live warmer.

Even so, his body became colder, but Chen Mu's cold heart warmed up, and he had the strength to work every day!
This kind of companionship lasted for a long time, and only the two of them, brother and sister, were together every day.

But the excessive exhaustion and cold finally made Chen Mu's ungrown body unable to bear it!
There was a red mark on his left and right shoulders, a layer of broken skin was rubbed against it, and the surrounding area was slightly red and swollen. A light touch would bring burning pain, and because of the long-term cold , coupled with the lack of nutrition in the body, Chen Mu also had a fever and a cold!
The injuries inside and outside the body did not arouse the dean's pity. Chen Mu was stubborn and didn't say anything at that time, but continued to work.

It's just that Chen Mu's body doesn't support him to be so tired. After working for a while, Chen Mu feels dizzy and weak.

Chen Xi couldn't stand watching anymore, and after helping Chen Mu to sit on the pile of branches, he ignored Chen Mu's obstruction and followed Chen Mu's example, rummaging through the branches buried under the snow.

The seven-year-old girl who couldn't keep up with her nutrition was too weak in strength, coupled with her lack of experience, when she first came into contact with it, something happened that made Chen Mu's heart tremble.

The snow on the mountain is very thick, almost all over ten centimeters deep. Everything under the snow is unknown. He stumbled, and the left side of his face got stuck on the sharp tip of the branch in his arms, leaving a series of scratches that were not deep.

Seeing this, Chen Mu, who had just sat down, changed his expression, stood up abruptly, and ran to Chen Xi's side.

Seeing the bleeding, Chen Mu had no choice but to support his tired body, took out a few dollars secretly hidden, and ran to a town far, far away to buy Chen Xi a small bottle of disinfectant and a band-aid. At the market, Chen Mu picked up all the remaining money and bargained with the owner of the stall, but because the price was not enough, he had to buy a red plaid bow with a broken pin in order to make Chen Xi happier.

It's a pity that Chen Mu went back late, and Chen Xi's left face was not treated in time in winter, coupled with frostbite, even though Chen Mu tried his best to remedy it, it still left a scar.

The originally delicate and lovely little girl fell from heaven to hell and turned into an ugly duckling.

In contrast, Chen Xi looked at it indifferently, and instead smiled and comforted Chen Mu, and at the same time put the bowknot Chen Mu gave him on his head.

After that, Chen Mu was fostered by that rural couple. The brother and sister separated for 11 years after Chen Xi's injury had not fully recovered.

Chen Mu controlled his emotions, patted Chen Xi on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, we two brothers and sisters reunited after a long absence, so stop crying!"

"Ok!"

Chen Xi wiped his eyes, and let go of Chen Mu's arm.

"Don't go to your job of distributing leaflets. Brother will find you a good job. Choose what you want to do!"

Chen Mu rubbed Chen Xi's head and said.

"Yeah, I can do it!" Chen Xi nodded excitedly. After all these years of running away, her wish came true, she has nothing else to ask for!

Relatives are the support and hope for her to live.

"Brother, are you short of money? I have saved 10 yuan here. Do you want it?"

Chen Xi took out a bank card from the inner pocket of his clothes, handed it to Chen Mu, and asked with pure eyes.

"No, keep the flowers for yourself!"

Chen Mu was moved, and put the bank card in Chen Xi's hand back. From Chen Xi's current appearance, it can be seen that the 10 yuan was saved by her little by little for several years. All of them are given to Chen Mu, which is enough to show how important Chen Mu is in her heart.

"Little sister, your brother is now a wealthy family, go and eat delicious food with your elder brother."

Chen Mu stretched out his hand to hold Chen Xi's hand, trying to pick up the heavy luggage bag.

But the weakness that Chen Mu had forgotten finally exerted strength at this moment, and a sudden sense of dizziness hit Chen Mu, causing Chen Mu to almost fall down.

"I go."

Chen Mu staggered, covered his head, and leaned towards Chen Xi.

"elder brother!"

Chen Xi hurriedly hugged Chen Mu, looked at his pale face, and asked worriedly: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

The tingling feeling came from Chen Mu's center, and countless streams of heat flowed through the meridians of his body, as if there were countless ants crawling in Chen Mu's body, causing his handsome face to contort in pain.

Fortunately, this is only a momentary feeling.

Chen Mu heaved a sigh of relief, turned his head, pursed his white lips and smiled at Chen Xi in relief, and said weakly: "It's okay, I just haven't rested for a few days!"

"Brother, let's go to the hospital to have a look, I'm rich, don't stand up!"

Chen Xi held Chen Mu's hand, with worried eyes, she thought Chen Mu was reluctant to pay for medical treatment!
"It's really okay!"

Chen Mu shook his head, and smiled at Chen Xi. For some reason, Chen Mu's eyes suddenly heated up, and everything in his field of vision became clearer!
"Ah, brother, your eyes!"

Chen Xi, who was watched by Chen Mu, screamed suddenly, looked into Chen Mu's eyes, and said in shock.

"What's wrong?" Chen Mu asked suspiciously.

"Brother, why did your eyes suddenly turn red?" Chen Xi carefully looked at Chen Mu's eyes that suddenly turned scarlet.asked.

turn red?

Chen Mu was slightly taken aback, isn't this what he was like last night?

"System, what's going on?"

Chen Mu asked in his mind.

"The host does not need to worry, this is the normal state of the semi-activated state of the system protection system."

The weak voice of system magnetism sounded, explaining to Chen Mu.

"Ah, then can I change back? Return to normal?" Chen Mu asked, if he can't recover, then seeing people like this will not scare them to death.

"No, the system level is not high enough to control the activation of the protection system."

the system explained.

"Okay!" Chen Mu sighed, it seems that he will use this eye to meet people for a long time!

After exiting his mind, Chen Mu said to the worried Chen Xi: "It's okay, I just didn't rest well, and I will recover slowly!"

"Really?"

Chen Xi still looked worried. After all, there are no people with red eyes on the earth, and they are still scarlet so scary.

"Ok!"

Chen Mu rubbed Chen Xi's head and said with a smile.

"By the way, little girl, just wait!"

Chen Mu looked at the scar on Chen Xi's face, and suddenly remembered that there was something on his body, and he didn't know if it would work or not.

"System, help me take out the healing fruit!" Chen Mu said in his mind.

Chen Mu almost forgot about this thing that had been left behind. He remembered that the healing fruit had been introduced to treat skin injuries, but he didn't know if it would work for Chen Xi's injuries.

A faint light suddenly bloomed on the palm of Chen Mu's back, and a blue fruit appeared out of nowhere in his palm.

The shape of the healing fruit is similar to that of a green apple, but its surface has a cyan-like luster, and it has a light and pleasant aroma.

"No, eat it!" Chen Mu said as he put the healing fruit in Chen Xi's hand.

"What is this?" Chen Xi looked at Guozi over and over again, and asked curiously.

Never seen it before!

"My brother and friend found it abroad. It can heal skin injuries. It might be useful for your facial injuries!" Chen Mu said while looking at Chen Xi.

The scar on Chen Xi's face has almost always been a thorn in Chen Mu's heart.

Now if you ignore the scars, you can still see that Chen Xi's face is very good-looking, even if it is not a beautiful figure, it can be regarded as a clean and delicate beauty with good features.

"Then let me try!" Chen Xi smiled indifferently. Maybe she cared about it before, but she forgot the impact of this scar a long time ago. Instead, she sometimes smiled when she saw this scar. Contains the story of her and her brother.

Wanting to open his mouth and lightly took a bite, Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "It's so sweet!"

"Brother, you can eat it too, it's really sweet!" Chen Xi handed the healing fruit with a tooth mark to Chen Mu and said.

"No, you eat!"

Chen Mu carefully looked at the scar on Chen Xi's face, it seemed to be a little shallower, Chen Mu hurriedly urged: "Eat them all!"

"Oh!"

Chen Xi nodded, ate all the fruit, and asked with some doubts, "Why is there no core?"

Chen Mu didn't answer her, looking at the scar on Chen Xi's face, his face was full of excitement, and said, "It's gone!"

"No more?" Chen Xi subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch the left side of his cheek, and immediately froze, his uneven cheeks became extremely smooth at this moment.

"Is this my hand?" Chen Xi noticed that his callus-covered hands had become white and tender at this time, and the traces of hard work disappeared like a dream, so he couldn't help but asked in a daze.

"Yeah!" Chen Mu smiled and nodded.I secretly praised the system in my heart, the products produced by the system are indeed good products.

"Let's sit down for a while, chat, and then pick up your eldest niece!"

After standing like this for a while, Chen Mu's frail body became even weaker. As a last resort, he sat on the chair again and greeted Chen Xi.

Chen Xi rubbed his face, then looked at Bai Nen's hands, and finally looked at Chen Mu, without asking any more questions, but obediently agreed, and sat beside Chen Mu, supporting Chen Mu's weak body.

"Tell my brother, what have you been doing all these years?"

Chen Mu patted Chen Xi's hand, smiled slightly, and asked.

When he ran back to the orphanage from the couple's house in the countryside, he didn't seem to see Chen Xi. Maybe he left too hastily and didn't see him, but when he went back secretly, he could guarantee that Chen Xi would not be there. .

"Brother, not long after you and Brother Qiang left, people from the government came and gave our orphanage a lot of toys, a lot of food, and a lot of money." Chen Xi rested his head on Chen Mu's On her shoulder, she slowly talked about the happy or sad little things about her these years, and shared everything with Chen Mu.

After Chen Xi's words, Chen Mu also understood!
After they left, the orphanage met the state's support standards. The state spent money on renovations and received material subsidies every month.

But the dean seemed to be a different person after that, especially greedy.

Chen Xi couldn't help but miss Chen Mu. Before Chen Mu ran out of the couple's house, when he was nearly nine years old, he secretly ran out of the orphanage, looking for news about Chen Mu aimlessly.

It's just that she walked through cities one after another.Her only photo of Chen Mu has faded due to repeated use, and she didn't get any news about Chen Mu until they met here again.

Chen Mu sighed and stroked Chen Xi's long hair affectionately, feeling so moved that he didn't know what to say.

For such a young child all the way to the present, Chen Mu may have suffered so much that it is hard to imagine.

While talking, Chen Xi leaned on Chen Mu's shoulder, closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep. The exhaustion of many years finally broke out at this time, and she let go of everything on this shoulder that made her lean on and warm. troubles, fell asleep with an innocent smile on the corner of his mouth.

Chen Mu originally wanted to talk to his sister whom he hadn't seen for many years, but after turning his head, Chen Mu took back the words on his lips, and endured his exhausted body to stand motionless in front of Chen Xi's pillow.

He was Chen Xi's reliance many years ago, and he will always be in the future, and will always be in the future!

The breeze blew away the white clouds in the sky, revealing the blue sky, and the bright sunshine purified the fog and sprinkled the earth.

The wind came slowly, driving the branches to sway, and the withered and yellow leaves fell down, dancing with the wind.

The light wind drove the withered and yellow leaves fluttering and dancing past the two figures sitting quietly in the pavilion, blowing their hair with the wind.

Although the face of the handsome and handsome man was pale, his stiff neck told everyone that he could stand up to the sky.

The woman is delicate and lovely, leaning on the man's shoulder with her eyes closed, with the nostalgia of a small bird!
The wind drives the fallen leaves to flutter around them, and it seems that they are also celebrating their reunion after a long absence, and their reunion after 11 years!
