You have loved me for thousands of years

Chapter 7 Eating at Little Celery's House

The little girl's childish voice can melt everyone's heart, which made Yi Lin, a big-hearted man, soft-hearted. He pinched little Qin Qin's face and smiled flatteringly, "Okay, you can live as you like." After that, he looked at Yi Zheng fiercely and said, "You kid, take good care of her, and if you dare to bully her again, I won't peel your skin."

Yi Zheng pursed his lips, didn't look at him and didn't speak.

Yi Lin hated his rebellious appearance the most, every time he beat him half to death, he didn't say a soft word, he was as stubborn as a donkey, no matter how you looked at it, it was disgusting.

Raising a son for others is a stain on his life.

Xiao Qinqin didn't like this uncle very much, he was so fierce, and he always beat people, "Uncle, brother Zheng is very kind to me, please don't attack him in the future."

Yi Lin laughed hurriedly, "Okay, okay, uncle won't be harsh on him, you go to bed early." Then he pinched her little face again.

Yi Zheng never looked directly at him, and was concentrating on wiping Xiao Qinqin's hair. After he staggered upstairs, he wiped her face with a towel, which was where his father pinched it just now.

He said, "Little Celery, don't let others pinch your face in the future, do you know?"

Xiao Qinqin looked at him with a high face and asked, "Can't Dad?"

"Only your father can do it, I can do it, and no one else can." The warm lamp hit him, and his expression was very serious.

"Oh, what about Brother Cheng?"

Yi Zheng frowned, "Who is Brother Cheng?" She doesn't have a real brother, so this brother Cheng should be a neighbor or a kindergartener just like him.

"Brother Cheng is Brother Cheng. I like little Qinqin so much." Woooooo, she hasn't seen Brother Cheng for several days during the kindergarten holiday, and she misses him a little bit. Brother Cheng is really too much, and he doesn't tell her when he goes on vacation. One sound.

"No way!"

"Uh...why?" Brother Cheng would also pinch her cheeks and buy her a lot of delicious food. If she didn't let him pinch her cheeks, would he not buy her delicious food?

"Then do you like me more or that brother Cheng?" Yi Zheng sensed the crisis, that brother Cheng seemed very important to Little Celery.

"Uh..." She nodded her little head with her little hand, and she really thought about it seriously, and finally shook her head, "I don't know." Brother Zheng is actually a little better looking than Brother Cheng, and he is also a little taller than Brother Cheng A little bit, but Brother Cheng is much gentler than him, he always smiles when he sees her, and speaks softly.

In fact, she still likes Brother Cheng a little more, but she senses a crisis and dare not speak out.

Brother Zheng was so kind to her when he was brushing her hair. If she told the truth, Brother Zheng would definitely get angry and ignore her.

She really wanted to play with him, although he didn't like to laugh and talk less, but he was special.

Yi Zheng let out a groan, with a listless expression, and continued to brush her hair until it was half-dry. He took out the hair dryer and blown it for a while with low wind. related.

After blowing her hair, she took out a small comb from her little yellow duck schoolbag, combed her hair and carried her upstairs.

She couldn't sleep with her parents, and she couldn't let her sleep alone, she had to sleep with him.

His single thin blanket was very small. Thinking that she would kick the quilt when she slept dishonestly, he found another thin quilt, she slept inside, he slept outside, turned off the headlight and turned on the small desk lamp, the room was instantly dark, and he Take out your broken phone and play.

Little Qinqin in the bed only showed a small head, looked up at him, and asked, "Brother Zheng, aren't you going to sleep?"

"I'm not going to bed, you go to bed first." He is used to going to bed late, and it's still early now.

"I can't sleep." After turning over in bed a few times, she sat up, crawled into his arms naturally, and stretched her head to see what he was playing.

Or that locomotive game.

He seems to like this game very much.

Little Qinqin didn't feel sleepy. She found his face with her little hand and poked it, "Brother Zheng, can you sing to me?" When she couldn't sleep, her mother would sing to her, and she fell asleep.

Yi Zheng opened his eyes, and saw those big bright eyes looking at him.

The small bed was next to the window, the window was half-opened, and the moonlight slanted in like a tulle, hitting the girl's delicate face. Although her facial features could not be seen clearly, those crescent-like pupils were extraordinarily bright.

At this time, she is very well-behaved and very lovable.

"I do not know."

"Uh...then let me sing it to you."

"Okay." He stretched out his hand and rubbed her little furry head, smiling softly.

She was very excited, and a voice as crisp as a copper bell rang.

"Pleasant Goat, Beautiful Goat, Lazy Goat, Boiling Goat, Slow Goat, Soft Sheep, Red Taro, Big Big Wolf, don't look at me as just a sheep..."

Yi Zhengmo, "..."

It's sheep again. She has been watching sheep all afternoon, and she still sings about sheep before going to bed.

Yi Zheng laughed dumbfounded.

She sang very attentively, and her voice, which already had a milky sound, was even better than the original singing.

Yi Zheng admired it.

It's rare for a five-year-old girl to remember the tongue-twisting lyrics, and she hasn't lost her tune yet. He quietly took out his phone and recorded it.

"Go to sleep."

The next day, the morning light poured down, the hut was dyed a faint golden color, and the temperature slowly rose.

Yi Zheng woke up, took out his clothes from the cardboard box on the ground, took off his pajamas and changed into them, just as he took off his pajamas, he heard a sweet call.

"Brother Zheng, good morning!" The girl also opened her eyes and smiled sweetly at him.

"Early, get up and eat."

Yi Lin works on the construction site, and gets up early, and buys breakfast outside, so there are only three people at the table, Yu Man, Yi Zheng, and Qin Qin.

Xiao Qinqin sat on a big chair with a small bowl in her arms and ate breakfast.

Because there was no table to eat on, it was a bit difficult for her to hold the bowl of porridge.

Xiao Qinqin took a few sips and asked, "Auntie, did you quarrel with uncle last night? I heard you cry."

Yu Man paused while he was drinking porridge, and subconsciously glanced at his son.

Yi Zheng was eating, Junrong was as indifferent as usual, as if he didn't hear.

She has long felt that her son's over-maturity was caused by her, and she did not give him a good growth environment.

After a long time, she calmed down and said with a smile, "It's okay, Auntie and Uncle have reconciled."

"Oh, that's good, my parents will fight too, but they'll be fine after they sleep."

Yu Man smiled awkwardly.

Yi Zheng ate very quickly. After finishing the porridge and deep-fried dough sticks, he went upstairs without saying hello. Yu Man called him back, "Xiao Zheng, mom, take care of little Qinqin when I go shopping for vegetables."

"Take her with you." He said coldly, and he went upstairs without stopping.

Yu Man sighed, sat down and continued eating.

Xiao Qinqin immediately lost her appetite, put down the small bowl, and pursed her mouth.

Why is Brother Zheng suddenly unhappy, and he doesn't want to take her with him anymore.

Could it be that she interrupted him playing games?
Yu Man found that she was unhappy, and said with a smile, "Xiao Qinqin, Brother Zheng must want to play games. Go shopping with Auntie, and we will play with Brother Zheng when we come back."

"Oh."

After breakfast, Yu Man took her out to buy groceries.

Yi Zheng ignored her all day long, didn't go downstairs for lunch, Xiao Qinqin knocked on the door of his room, and locked it from the inside, so she had to sit alone in the lobby and watch cartoons, Yu Man bought her a bunch of snacks that she likes to eat, and she had a happy day.

When Yi Lin came back at night, he saw Xiao Qinqin and immediately showed a flattering smile, and teased her for a while by pinching her little face.

Yi Zheng was sitting on the sofa playing games. Seeing Yi Lin coming back, he put away his phone and was about to go upstairs. Yu Man hurriedly said, "Xiao Zheng, mom is a bit busy. You can help little Qin Qin take a bath." I bought a lot of cheap fish, marinated for a day, prepared noodles, fried them in a pan, and refrigerated them for later consumption.

At this time, her hands were covered with face, and she couldn't find time to bathe little Qinqin.

Yi Zheng flatly refused, "I don't want it."

Yi Lin smiled and said, "I'll come, I have nothing to do anyway."

Yi Zheng paused, but went upstairs without saying anything.

After a while, Xiao Qinqin ran out of the bathroom, covered in water.

Yi Zheng was startled, and immediately jumped up from the bed, not knowing what happened.

Yi Lin's voice also came from behind, shouting, "Xiao Qinqin, don't run away, you haven't put on your clothes yet."

Hearing his voice, Xiao Qinqin ran faster, climbed onto the bed, wrapped herself in a quilt, and kept her head hidden.

Yi Zheng was a little strange, Yi Lin ran in with her pajamas, and was about to grab Little Qin Qin with his hand, and said with a smile, "What are you running about, my uncle is not a big bad wolf, come on, put on your clothes."

Yi Zheng snatched the clothes from his hand and said coldly, "Go out, I'll dress her."

Yi Lin scolded angrily, "You brat, don't you know how to avoid suspicion when you're half a brat?"

"I'm not you."

Yi Lin angrily threw the clothes on his head, punched him in the chest, and yelled, "You dare to scold me, you are getting impatient, I'll give you food and drink and you still scold me, you've been turned upside down! "

Although Yi Zheng is tall, he is an eight-year-old child, and his strength is not as strong as that of an adult. That fist hit him so hard that he covered his chest and lay on the ground. Yi Lin hit him on the head like a powerless The little beast pawed on the ground, clenched its fists, and did not fight back.

He can't fight back, otherwise it will be the mother who suffers tonight.

Yu Man downstairs heard the movement, hurried upstairs, and saw a distressing scene.

"Yi Lin, stop hitting, stop!"

"Wow... Mom... I want Mom... Mom... Dad... I want Dad..." Little Qin Qin cried miserably from under the blanket, and then showed her distressed little face.

Because she was stuffed in the bed for too long, her already damp hair was wet with sweat, sweat and tears mixed together and dripped down her small face, she cried loudly with her eyes closed and her mouth open, not to mention how pitiful she was.

Yi Lin glanced at Xiao Qinqin, turned his face away guiltily, then stopped beating and scolding Yi Zheng, spat at Yi Zheng, and went out.

Yu Man wanted to hug Xiao Qinqin, but her hands were full of noodles, so she could only comfort her, "Little Qinqin, don't cry, it's okay, uncle has left, it's okay, mom and dad will be back tomorrow."

Xiao Qinqin cried even harder.

Yi Zheng got up from the ground, took off his shirt, because it was already dirty by Yi Lin's kick, he walked to the bedside and comforted him softly, "Hey, don't cry, it's okay."

"Woooooo...I want my mother...Mom..."

"Your mother will be back tomorrow, and they will be back as soon as you sleep."

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." She looked at her with tears in her face, and scratched her body with her little hands.

Yi Zheng thought she meant that he was in pain from the beating, so he whispered, "I'm fine, sleep."

Under his comfort, Xiao Qinqin finally stopped crying, hiccupped her eyes and closed her eyes.

This family storm was commonplace for Yi Zheng and Yu Man, and they didn't worry about it at all. This time, Yi Zheng was kicked a few times, and his arms were bruised, and it was considered good if he didn't bleed.

Yu Man told him to take the medicine himself, and left in a hurry. She had to go to appease Yi Lin, otherwise the situation would only get worse.

Yi Zheng found a clean towel and wiped Xiao Qinqin, because she was dripping with sweat from crying, and she would catch a cold if she didn't dry herself off when she slept.

Quickly put her clothes on, he turned on the small desk lamp to get some ointment, and applied it to his bruised arm.

The young man sat on the floor of a messy room, lowered his head, and applied medicine to himself in front of the weak light of the small desk lamp. The scene was indescribably lonely and desolate.

The next day, Xiao Qinqin slept until the sun was up, and couldn't wake up no matter how much she screamed, Yi Zheng thought that she might have cried too much the night before and was tired from crying.

Recalling the way she cried the night before, he felt very distressed.

He thought of those photos again, the group photo of their family of three. She was born in a happy family and was the treasure of her parents. She must have been terrified.

He thought of what he said to her, that he can only like him in the future, what right does he have to let her like him, he has such a bad family, such a sick father and weak mother, if they are together, won't she also Advancing in dire straits.

Little Qinqin didn't get up until noon, her expression was listless, she didn't eat, she talked less, and her smile disappeared, and she refused to be hugged by anyone except Yi Zheng, she lay in Yi Zheng's arms, her eyes were always wet , like a sick doll, it hurts to see it.

Yu Man was afraid that she would be really frightened, so she quickly called Mother Tan, and didn't say anything about the domestic violence, but said that Xiao Qinqin missed them and told them to go home quickly. In the afternoon, they hurried back.

As soon as Xiao Qinqin saw her parents, she immediately refreshed, called her parents sweetly, and returned to her previous lively appearance.

This made Yu Man and Yi Zheng breathe a sigh of relief.

I'm really afraid that she was frightened. The crying appearance yesterday was really scary. If there is something wrong with her, they can't explain it at all.

Mother Tan brought a lot of gifts, including special products from S City, and bought clothes for Yu Man's family of three, thanking them for taking care of the little princess these three days.

Yu Man was determined not to, but Tan's mother was determined to give it, and in the end Yu Man had to accept it.

Xiao Qinqin waved her little hand on her father's shoulder obediently, "Auntie, goodbye brother Zheng, thank you for taking care of me."

Yu Man also smiled and waved to her, "Xiao Qinqin often comes to play."

Yi Zheng pursed his lips and looked at her without saying a word, while Xiao Qinqin looked at him smiling innocently.

Little Qinqin hasn't seen her parents for three days, she just clings to them and refuses to come down. Mother Qin digs out the presents, clothes, toys and snacks bought for the little princess from the suitcase. Little Qinqin is so happy that she finally gives up Let go of them and sit on the sofa and play by yourself.

No one lived in for three days, and the house seemed to be covered with dust. Father Tan and mother Tan cleaned the house inside and out together, sweating profusely from exhaustion, and it was already sunset when everything was done.

Qin's father took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and went to the supermarket to buy vegetables. He planned to cook dinner himself.

Qin's father is very good at cooking. His childhood wish was to be a cook, but the older generation said that being a cook has no future, so he had to attack IT. Although he is now an IT man, he still longs to be a cook in his heart.

Dreams, after all, were defeated by reality.

Just as the family was about to start, there was a knock on the door. Father Tan asked who it was, and hurried to open the door.

"Uncle, here is a spare key for your house." Yi Zheng handed him the key and was about to turn around and leave, but his mother forgot to give it to him and asked him to bring it over.

Father Tan has never seen such a ruthless little boy. He looks like he is only eight years old. Why is he older than a 30-year-old man? He thought, it must have something to do with his family environment.

Thinking of how he took care of his little princess these days, he decided to give him a little positive family education.

He stretched out his hand to hold him, and said with a smile, "Your name is Xiaozheng, right? Haven't eaten yet? Come on, I just cooked. Let's have some together."

"No need." With three simple words, he withdrew his hand and was about to leave.

"Come on, come on, don't be too polite. Uncle thank you for taking care of the little princess. She said that you are good to her." Father Qin thought that the child was violent and had a lot of opinions on him, but this afternoon The little princess was always talking about brother Zheng's kindness, which made him change his view of this guy.

Taking a closer look, the little boy is really handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, red lips and white teeth. If he is not tall, he is more delicate and beautiful than a girl at first glance, but his indifferent expression does not match his pretty face.

No wonder his wife said he was good-looking, and even his daughter praised him.

Appearance is really important.

Hey, he also wants to have a son.

It was the first time that Yi Zheng was warmly invited to dinner by someone. He was a little at a loss. In the village, children ran away when they saw him, and adults scolded him when they saw him. In the countryside, my mother's behavior is shameful, but my father has become a good person.

It was the first time he was cared about by someone other than his mother, and he felt very warm, just like Xiao Qinqin couldn't get out of his arms because he hugged his neck, as if his existence was not meaningless.

There were also people who saw him as a human being.

A beam of warm light shone in his dark and damp heart.

"Brother Zheng!" Xiao Qinqin, who was sitting in the children's chair, immediately shouted happily when she saw him, and opened her two little hands to hug him.

Mother Qin hit her little hand with chopsticks, "Little princess, it's time for you to eat, and brother Zheng also wants to eat."

Xiao Qinqin put down her little hand unhappily, and picked up a small spoon to pick rice into her mouth. She wanted to eat quickly, and she could play with brother Zheng after eating.

"Come on, sit down quickly, sit next to the little princess." Father Tan asked him to sit down, and went to the kitchen to get a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Yi Zheng sat there steadfastly, Jun's face was a little red.

It was the first time for him to eat at someone else's house, and his mother always said that he was not polite. He was a little worried that he would make Xiao Celery's parents unhappy by doing something impolite, so he kept himself still and silent.

Qin's mother laughed when she saw him looking like an old monk in meditation.

This little boy is really not ordinary and cold, he is just having a meal, his serious expression looks like he is about to go to the battlefield to fight.

"Xiaozheng, don't be cautious. Uncles and aunts are not big bad wolves. Take it easy and treat it as if you are at home." Father Tan also noticed that the little boy was a little nervous, so he sat down beside him and gave him a bowl. I got a big chicken leg.

Yi Zheng pursed his lips and didn't speak, Jun's face was still red.

Mother Tan found a light topic and asked, "Xiao Zheng, what grade are you in?" He should be in the third grade when he is eight years old.

Yi Zheng replied, "I'm in first grade."

Mother Qin was a little surprised. Father Qin asked with a slurred tooth while eating the food, "Are you going to school late? Why are you only in the first grade?"

"I go to school late." According to Dad, he never planned to let him go to school, saying that going to school was a waste of tuition.

Qin's mother and Qin's father glanced at each other, as if they understood something. His father treated him so badly, scolding and beating him every now and then, probably because he didn't want to pay him to go to school.

What a poor kid.

Yi Zheng lowered his head, didn't eat the chicken leg, and chewed slowly with a few pieces of celery.

He didn't like eating celery before, it was dry and hard, but now it doesn't seem to be that bad, it's delicious.

Qin's father looked at him and couldn't help asking, "Xiao Zheng, don't blame uncle for talking too much, your family..." Some people don't know how to speak, but he really loves this child. If his family continues to be so violent, this beautiful The child is ruined, and now his character is very withdrawn.

Qin's mother knew what he wanted to say and blinked hard at him.

You don't know anything and don't talk nonsense.
