piecing together the soul

Chapter 83 Fifty Savings Bank or Stock Speculation?
I can't stand Brother Xiu's widened eyes and expectant expression. When he looks at me like this, all I can do is look away and dodge.

This subconscious action also implied myself. My attitude towards him now is to dodge, and I still can't make up my mind to agree or refuse.

I suddenly remembered Brother Xiu said that running away will not solve the problem.But for this matter, I really am not escaping.Because when faced with some choices, we must be cautious.It's like if you have a sum of money, do you deposit it in the bank or speculate in stocks?Depositing in a bank may be safer but earn less. Stock trading is risky but may earn a lot of money.

Lao Wang and Brother Xiu also had the same problem.If I choose to be with Lao Wang, we may have a stable life, leisurely but maybe a little boring; if I choose Brother Xiu, then my life will become an unrepeatable life, and I can experience what ordinary people can’t experience things.

When faced with such a choice, shouldn't I be more careful?After all, it is related to whose name is printed on the red book with me, who is in the same household registration book, and it is related to what kind of life I will live in the future.

Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered that before the matter of the child soul, Brother Xiu still looked very guilty towards Si'er, as if he wanted to follow him immediately. Why did Master Xu just say such a sentence, and he was looking forward to it so much? ?Doesn't he feel guilty after such a short time?
Master Xu must have seen my eyes flickering and my expression completely evasive from the side, and asked: "You asked questions just now, why can't you make up your mind now? I don't even hesitate, why are you hesitating?"

"I hesitated because I have a choice, and you don't hesitate because you have no choice now!" I said, "Now if the country passes a law saying that same-sex marriages are allowed, you don't care about my life or death!"

Master Xu laughed with a "puchi" and said, "Although I was in a hurry, what I said was true."

"Are you still running on me?" I smiled wryly.

Master Xu just has an ability, that is, he is obviously scolding you, but it makes you feel comfortable listening, maybe it has something to do with the tone of voice?

"Come on," Master Xu said, "I can't force you to make a decision, anyway, I've already said the solution, so you can think about it slowly. You hurry up, I'm going to sleep."

He still drives me away?I said: "Master Xu, you have to be clear, now you are at my house, not yours!"

"Then don't go, let's sleep here together?"

I didn't bother to talk to him, so I cursed: "Get lost!" Then I went back to sleep.

Early the next morning, my mother called me up: "Xiao Luan, Xiao Luan!"

I lay down so late last night and tossed and turned for a long time before I fell asleep. I am still sleepy now, and the moment I woke up I felt a huge headache.But my mother didn't mean to stop, she came into my room and asked: "What were you doing in the kitchen last night? Why does the range hood seem to be burned? And there is still water on the pot? There is still water by the window." What a big piece of dust? What are you doing?"

Shit!I cursed in my heart, I forgot to clean the kitchen last night.But I can't play dumb right now, because if I say I don't know, those things are all Master Xu's.

I said first in a daze, "What? What about the kitchen?"

My mother immediately asked what she had just said again, and I became more sober, and made up the nonsense, and said: "Last night, I just wanted to turn on the fire by mistake. If the gas is turned off, it will be fine. Didn’t you forget to turn it off? It caught fire right away. Look at my hand, it was still hot when I turned off the gas!”

As I said that, I stretched out my right hand that was scalded and blistered.My mother felt very distressed when she saw it, and said, "You are not careful. You haven't even applied the medicine? I'll get you the medicine!"

After fooling my mother, I was also sober.Thinking of the child soul who said yesterday that I love to lie, it seems to be true.It's common for me to pretend to be stupid and tell nonsense, but I usually don't mean it maliciously, just to save some unnecessary trouble.

My mother came over with scald ointment and said, "Try to touch as little as possible with your hand. It happens that Xu Xiaohan is at home with you and can still take care of you. You said that your right thumb, index finger, and tiger's mouth are injured. That's where you get your stuff."

"Of course." I said, "Can anyone turn off the gas with their ring finger and little finger?"

"You shouldn't be asked to study liberal arts! You didn't learn anything else, you just learned to talk back." My mother rubbed me medicine while scolding me.

I can only listen with a smile on my face.In fact, as I get older, my attitude towards parents' scolding has also changed a lot.It used to be annoying, but now I feel happy.

After applying the medicine, my mother asked me to get up and have breakfast, and I said I was still sleepy and wanted to sleep for a while.Although she usually misses me a lot, my mother still loves me very much, and she doesn't call me anymore when she sees that I am too sleepy.

It was almost time to go to work, and my parents left.As soon as they left, Master Xu called me.

"You can't run out of money, can you?" I said, "You can't walk over these few steps?"

"Do you want to get out of the warm blanket now?"

Indeed... all I can say is, "Okay. What's up?"

"You, go up and down again."

"**what happened again?"

"That guy jumped the wall in a hurry." Master Xu said, "It seems that I really have to stay at your house for a while."
