Chapter 28 twenty five

I took the child back to Jinzhou Street, Liyue was still off work.I sneaked into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and stole a bottle of Weiquan fresh milk that Little Johnny drank, and a big red mango. This is Liyue's forbidden fruit, because it is expensive, and Xiaoyu and I are usually not allowed to touch it. of.When I returned to the room, I saw that child climbed onto my bed and sat cross-legged there with his bare feet covered in mud. His clean-shaven head reflected light under the lamp.As soon as he saw the bottle of fresh milk in my hand, he jumped up and reached out to grab it.

May I have your name?I held the bottle of fresh milk high. brother.replied the child. Stupid thing, I smiled, where's your name?You always have a name, right? The child stared at me blankly, his mouth opened into an O shape.He has a pair of big, black eyes, staring at people fixedly, without blinking. Little brother for a while, the child repeated in a murmur, they all call me little brother Well, I said with a smile, I'll call you little brother too.You call me Ah Qing, understand?Ah Ching. Ah Ching.He dragged his voice to imitate me. I opened the cap of the bottle of fresh milk and handed it to him. He picked up the bottle and poured it, gurgling like nectar, and drank half of the bottle in one go.Milk dripped down the corner of his mouth and dripped onto his white denim sweatshirt.He drank up the fresh milk in a few sips, then smacked his lips, let out a sigh of relief, but kept holding the empty milk bottle tightly with both hands, refusing to let it go.I sat on the floor, peeled the mango in half, and took two bites. The mango was juicy, sweet, and apple-flavored. I was eating vigorously, but when I looked up, I found my little brother sitting on the bed, looking at me all the time. Half open, eyes moving with the mango in my hand.

delicious ghost!I couldn't help laughing.Just finished drinking milk, why is she still looking so gluttonous! The younger brother swallowed, and blinked his big eyes twice. If you want to eat, just come down, the mango juice drips on the bed and cannot be washed off.I waved to him. The younger brother hesitated for a moment, and finally dropped the empty bottle, got up, jumped on the floor, and crawled to my side. What about your home, brother, where do you live?As I peeled the remaining half of the mango for him, I asked him. Little brother Wanhua thought for a while, and replied.

What street, what number, do you know? Wanhua What street is Wanhua, brother? He shook his head impatiently. Is it Yanping North Road? He stared at me blankly, silent. You don't even know where your home is, what should you do? Brother Gulu Gulu suddenly laughed, he laughed very strangely, giggling, a series of quick and clear laughter, suddenly stopped, his eyes were wide open, he was stunned for a long time, he seemed to be okay Suddenly, he continued to giggle again, leaning forward and backward in laughter, shaking his clean-shaven head for a while. dare you laugh!I lightly reprimanded him, now you are miserable, you can't go home!

The little brother stopped laughing, but sighed casually: Ai I handed half a mango that had been peeled off to his hand, and he took a bite, dripping, and the tip of his nose and chin were stained with orange-yellow mango juice. Also suck with relish.I went to get his fruit core, but he pushed my hand away, humming in displeasure: sneeze I noticed that there was a thin layer of plaster on the back of his neck. He was sitting next to me, and I could smell the acid from his body. He hadn't bathed for several days. Sloppy, I'll take you to the shower.I couldn't help but pull him up, hold on to his hand, and lead him to the bathroom.I filled a bucket of cold water with a lead bucket and helped him take off his clothes.I handed him a gourd ladle and said:

Rinse yourself, I'll get you a towel. He held the gourd water ladle, looked left and right, and stood there naked. Go like this, idiot! I snatched the ladle from his hand, took a ladle of water, and poured it over his head.He hurriedly covered his head and shrunk his neck, giggling and dodging.I caught him and poured several spoonfuls of water on him before I brought the piece of Mary's medicated soap I used for bathing and wiped his back. Brother, who is in your family? He thought for a moment and said: Abba. What does your father do?I asked him. Carambola Guava Tomatoes He sang and counted the same.

What carambola and guava, let me ask you, what does your father do?I can't help laughing. And longan!He suddenly remembered, added proudly, and then said nonchalantly: Dad sells fruit. Who else is in your family, brother? Auntie Feng Where is your mother? The little brother was stunned for a while, then looked back at me, his eyes wide open. Grandma went up the mountain, Aunt Feng said, Grandma went up the mountain As he spoke, he grumbled again, his head nodding, his thin shoulder blades twitching. Little brother, I pressed his shoulder and said, you ran out like this, what's wrong with your family not being able to find you?

Humming chicken he babbled. What chicken? He sang the red rooster again, Aunt Feng taught me: the red rooster has a long tail I couldn't help laughing loudly, scooped up a large ladle of water, and poured it down from the top of his head.After I finished showering my little brother, I took a towel from the rack and handed it to him, asking him to dry himself.I was bending down to pick up the lead bucket and water ladle, but my younger brother dropped the towel and ran out naked. I hurried forward and grabbed him, picked up the towel, and wrapped his lower body around him before letting him go. Get out of the bathroom.I fetched a bucket of water myself and took a cold shower.Then I soaked the dirty clothes and trousers that my younger brother had replaced with my own in a wooden laundry tub, and sprinkled them with soap powder.Abasan is nice to me, and sometimes she also washes the clothes I change, but it must be soaked overnight, and she doesn't accept the dirty clothes I just changed.When I got back to the room, I saw my little brother was naked, with the towel dropped to the floor, curled up on my bed, asleep, his mouth was half open, and the corner of his mouth was drooling.
