Chapter 666: Brother Konishi
A breakfast passed in the silence of Xiao Ande gobbling up and Qing Shuli and his wife.
Konishi sat at the dining table, looking at the morning he had made on the table with confused eyes, and he had no appetite.
Somehow, he didn't have anything in his stomach, but he wasn't hungry at all.
Liu Yucui saw that Xiaoxi was stunned and didn't eat, so she hurriedly stood up and put two buns on his plate, and said with a smile: "Xiaoxi, let's eat quickly." Wait a while to get cold. ”
Nodding lightly, Xiaoxi subconsciously picked up the chopsticks and grabbed the bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Konishi is so good. Liu Yucui squinted her eyes and smiled, she also ate a little casually and then stood up, and said, "You eat first, I will take advantage of the cold weather in the morning to hoe the grass in the field, and it will be hot when the sun rises in a while." ”
While speaking, Liu Yucui put down the chopsticks, pointed to the table, and said, "Dad, child, you can clean up the dishes and chopsticks after breakfast, and I'll leave first." ”
Standing up, Liu Yucui walked out of the door, picked up a hoe next to the door and put it on her shoulder, turned around and was about to walk out of the house.
"Mom, slow down. Xiao An glanced at his mother with concern, and after drinking the last mouthful of porridge, he looked at Xiao Xige, who was sitting next to him and only ate two buns, and hurriedly asked: "Brother Xiaoxi, you eat quickly, the porridge should be cold later." ”
To Xiao An's surprise, his little brother Xiaoxi did not lower his head and continue to eat, but stood up and walked to the door, also found a hoe by the door, put it on his shoulder, and walked out with his mother's pace.
"This" Qing Shuli was stunned again, and after a while, his wrinkled face suddenly showed a smile that was not just happy but also helpless, "Xiaoxi, this kid, although he can't remember things in a daze, but this kid knows how to be polite, and he must have been a good boy before." ”
Facing the rising sun in the early morning, Xiaoxi followed Liu Yucui's footsteps to the cornfield outside the village.
Along the way, the villagers of Xinliu Village looked at the young man behind Liu Yucui, and their eyes flashed with curiosity.
In a village, if you look up and don't look down, the villagers of Xinliu Village are very common.
The villagers all know that Qing Jiaqing Shuli and his wife have two children, the eldest girl has been admitted to the university and works in the big city, and the younger son has just reached adulthood and works in the high school in the town.
This young man, whom they had never spoken, was a new face.
Villagers living in the countryside are no different from people in the city, and they all have a sense of curiosity.
A few hundred meters from Qing's house to the field, the villagers Liu Yucui saw stopped and looked at the expressionless young man behind her, all asking a question, "Xiao An,, who is this young man?" ”
Liu Yucui had nothing to hide, so she had to tell everyone about the discovery of Xiaoxi on Xishan that night.
When everyone heard that the handsome young man behind Liu Yucui was actually a homeless and hard-working child, they couldn't help but sigh.
For a while, the gossip and gossip sounded in Liu Yucui's ears.
There are those who sigh that Xiaoxi is pitiful, and there are those who ridicule Liu Yucui for pretending to be a big garlic and have to take them in because the conditions at home are not good, and of course, there are also those who admire Liu Yucui.
In short, Liu Yucui just smiled slightly when she heard the different opinions, and ignored them.
That night, when she picked up Xiaoxi, she was just worried that the young man was sick and had a high fever and burned him out, even if Xiaoxi was finally sick and lived in their house, Liu Yucui didn't think about kicking Xiaoxi out of his dilapidated home.
Especially this morning, when she got up and saw that Xiaoxi had gotten up early to make the morning for their family, a string in Liu Yucui's heart seemed to be plucked, and a trace of warmth flashed in her heart.
At that moment, she decided that no matter how difficult their family's life was, as long as there was a bite to eat, she couldn't let Xiaoxi go hungry.
Because, they are family.
The sun gradually rose, and Xiaoxi followed Liu Yucui's footsteps into the cornfield.
"Xiaoxi, just watch from the side, I'll remove the weeds that have just grown in the field, and we'll go back at noon." Liu Yucui said, carrying a hoe and going to the ground.
Xiaoxi didn't move, under the sun, he squinted his eyes slightly, watching Liu Yucui bend over and work meticulously in the field, and after a while, he also went down to the ground.
Konishi's face has always been Mumu's non-speech, and it is his movements that speak in his place.
Imitating Liu Yucui, Xiaoxi bent down, his eyes staring at the yellow earth tightly, the hoe on his shoulder was held in his hand, and he was clearing the weeds in the soil little by little.
"Boom"
In the cornfield, Konishi is extremely skilled at weeding, and he is very fast.
Liu Yucui's eyes widened, and she looked at Xiaoxi with an incredible expression, she really didn't expect that Xiaoxi, who looked stupid and stupid on the surface, would be so neat when she was working.
Before she could react from surprise, Xiaoxi had already cleared from one end of the field to the other, the hoe in his hand, as if it had become an extremely handy tool, and after a while, the weeds in the entire field were cleaned up by Xiaoxi alone.
Putting away the hoe, Xiaoxi stood still, didn't say anything, just carried the hoe out of the ridge and walked towards Xinliu Village.
"This child" Liu Yucui sighed softly, with a touched look in her eyes, she suddenly realized that it was really fate that God sent Xiaoxi to their house.
No matter what Xiaoxi's identity was before, and no matter whether Xiaoxi will recover his memory in the future, but in the hearts of their family, Xiaoxi gradually became a member of their family and became a relative.
Ordinary days pass by in the quiet and peaceful atmosphere of the countryside.
Time flies like a white horse, and in the blink of an eye, it has been almost a month since Xiaoxi came to Qing's house.
In the past month, Xiaoxi's eyes have changed the most, and his eyes have gradually become more vibrant from the beginning of the wooden ne.
Although Xiaoxi is still as taciturn and doesn't like to talk as before, recently, Xiaoxi will also learn to speak when he is with the Qing family, but in front of outsiders, Xiaoxi is still silent, like a mute, and never says a word.
From morning to night, from sunrise to sunset, Xiaoxi, who lives in Qing's house, has the most important life to do some housework every day, helping Liu Yucui to clean up the farm work in the field.
In addition, Xiaoxi's favorite thing to do is to run to the grass on the mountain west of Xiao'an to find his village and look at the sky in a quiet daze.
Another point is that on the West Mountain, Xiaoxi can see the entire Xinliu Village, and can also see the only path outside Xinli Village.
On the path, whenever the sun sets, Konishi's face always flashes with a smile that doesn't seem to belong to him.
Because, in the evening, Xiao An is out of school, and Xiao An, who comes home from high school in the town, will go home from this path every afternoon.
And seeing Brother Xiaoxi on the hillside after school every day is also Xiao An's happiest thing now.
In the evening sunset, the gentle light sprinkled on Xiaoxi's body, this silver-haired young man, with his hands on the back of his head, his eyes looking directly at the sky reflected red by the sunset.
He was thinking.
Think about who he is, what his name is, where he came from, why he is here, what happened to him, what is going on.
All doubts are like a huge mystery clogged in his heart, every time he tries to solve the confusion in his heart, there will always be a wall in front of him, knowing that through that wall he can know his true identity, but whenever he tries to solve the puzzle, it is like a bomb exploding in his brain, tearing pain.
Xiaoxi, it was the Qing family who gave him a name.
He accepted the name because he felt it was dear to him, but when he wanted to think about it again, his head hurt again.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, the young man continued to look at the sky with confused eyes.
A black ring that reflects the metallic luster of sunlight.
Konishi's fingers gently caressed the ring, and a warm force passed through the ring and into the boy's body.
For a month, the young man always subconsciously touched the ring on his finger intentionally or unintentionally, and only when he felt the gentle breath on the ring could Konishi calm down and stop thinking about his own life experience.
However, there was a voice in Konishi's heart telling him that he did not belong to this place, this place, not his real home.
"Xiao An, I'm back" The setting sun illuminated the country road golden, and at the end of the path, a thin figure carrying a huge schoolbag appeared in Xiaoxi's sight.
Seeing Xiao An, the young man's eyes lit up, he shook his head, he threw away those cluttered thoughts in his mind, and he got up from the grass and hurriedly walked in the direction that Xiao An came from.
On the path, Xiao An looked at Brother Xiaoxi who was walking towards him, and a sweet smile appeared on his thin little face, but this time, there was a looming bruise on the corner of Xiao An's mouth.
"Brother Xiaoxi, you're here to pick me up again. Xiao An said, a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he quickened his pace and walked quickly towards his little brother Xi.
Xiao Xi also walked towards Xiao An with a smile, took the big schoolbag behind Xiao An and put it on his back, nodded, his eyes were bright, but he gently spit out two words on his mouth, "Go home." ”
After getting along for a period of time, Xiao An is also used to Brother Xiaoxi's attitude, he knows that Brother Xiaoxi doesn't like to talk, this month, Xiao An also tried to help Brother Xiaoxi let him talk more in the face of strangers, but Brother Xiaoxi is always silent except for talking more in front of them.
However, Xiao An knew that his little brother was really good to him.
