The Younger Brother Next Door is a School Grass - Chapter 1
“Hook together for a day, don’t you know how to study?”
“Have you finished your homework? Huh? Not a little bit of self-consciousness!”
“I can’t see the shadow of a book on the desktop, but I’m so capable, Lu Xi! Do you know that you are going to take the entrance examination soon?”
“From now on, I’m not allowed to go anywhere this weekend, just stay in the house and learn from me—”
Xu Xuelin opened the door in annoyance, but she didn’t expect someone at the door, a little embarrassed, “Sisi…you don’t need to make up classes this week?” Unconsciously, she let out a soft voice.
The little girl in front of the door is called Zhou Sisi, who lives on the same floor and Wenxiu is quiet. Everyone in the same unit knew that she was shy and shy.
Therefore, Xu Xuelin was not surprised that she did not get a response. Rushing to the hospital, she didn’t notice that Zhou Sisi was wrong, and left the sentence “Auntie has cherries in her house, let’s eat”, and hurriedly left.
The wind of Zhongchun turned into the window of the corridor and blew the bangs of Zhou Sisi, who had stood still for a long time.
“Ah cut.” The person in the room yawned.
“Fuck, the door is not closed,” the clear young voice gradually increased as the distance narrowed, “so sloppy to say–huh?”
Zhou Sisi’s shoulders trembled lightly, raised his eyes, his scattered eyes focused little by little, focusing on the young man’s face.
The delicate and handsome young man was lazy, “You are standing here,” enduring the unfriendly words “why”, he casually asked, “What’s the matter with you?”
Before I finished speaking, I was stunned to find that the silent neighbor’s lady’s eyes were red, and there was a tendency to become redder.
This, what’s going on?
“You…” Lu Xi flicked her naturally curly short hair twice. “Are you scolded by your mother too?”
Zhou Sisi looked at him for an instant, with emotions surging in his lungs.
This face is greener than in memory.
She seems to have never looked at his face seriously, as if she never thought that he would serve her…
“You, what’s the matter with you? Don’t cry!” Lu Xi was very at a loss, and then panicked a little at a loss.
The neighbor’s young lady slapped her face with white porcelain, her nose was red, her eyes were red, and her apricot eyes were full of tears, which might roll down at any time.
It’s not like being wronged, and it’s not like being sad.
Lu Xi couldn’t bear her gaze, scratching her ears, keeping her eyes closed, “Is there something to do with me? Do you want to come in?”
After dozens of seconds, there was no response.
The phone in my trouser pocket vibrated several times. With hair strands, you can guess that it was a friend who called him to play games.
“If it’s okay, I will close the door and return to the house.” Lu Xi waited a moment before closing the door.
This neighbour sister is a little strange…
Lu Xi walked to the room with his slippers, took out his mobile phone, and when he saw a friend’s message, his brain automatically threw things outside the game into the corner.
…
The corridor was empty and pale, and the birds tweeted during the spring and day outside.
Zhou Sisi’s curled eyelashes were wet with tears and covered with star-dotted water beads.
It happened that an uncle on the fifth floor went out and quickly descended to the third floor, “Sisi?” Seeing her expression, “This… Did the Lu family bully you?”
Zhou Sisi shook his head slowly.
“What’s the situation? Tell me?” The uncle was chivalrous. Zhou Sisi, a good boy with red eyes, couldn’t help but care for a few words.
“No…” Zhou Sisi withdrew from the chaotic thoughts and lowered his red eyes, “Thank you, Uncle.”
Avoiding encountering other residents, she returned home.
Top-heavy, temples swell.
Zhou Sisi lay down on the bed heavily and fell asleep.
…
“…What time is this?”
“Sisi.”
Zhou Sisi opened his eyes by pressing his forehead, and the room was dim, and the light in the living room penetrated from the junction.
“Still asleep-it’s counted.” Chen Cui walked to the door of the room and “slapped” on the top light switch.
Zhou Sisi squinted uncomfortably, his head still a little heavy.
“The little girl’s house, sleep till this point.”
“Get up and wash your face and eat.”
Pursing lips, getting out of bed, putting on clothes, and spending too much time in front of the bathroom sink, Zhou Sisi had been sitting at the dinner table for more than twenty minutes.
Chen Cui was holding a mobile phone in his left hand and swiping while eating, “Why is it so slow?”
With his head down and his eyes closed, Zhou Sisi let out a low “um”. I don’t want to face Chen Cui, her biological mother.
Zhou Sisi was born again.
In the last life, Chen Cui died in a car accident on the way to play mahjong, leaving Zhou Sisi with a lot of debts, including public, private, and even usury.
The creditor chased after him, Zhou Sisi was lonely and helpless. In college, she didn’t know who to turn to for help, so she could only squeeze time and work day and night to make money.
Zhou Sisi’s physique was not good at first. After several months of high-intensity work, his body was overdrawn, and he died suddenly in the early summer of his senior year.
A wisp of wandering soul wandered for more than ten days, and I don’t know what chance she would return to her sophomore year in high school.
If Zhou Sisi said that he did not have a hint of resentment towards Chen Cui, it must be false.
Zhou Sisi’s father was a doctor, and he worked hard and gave up the chance to win awards and managed to get his wife Chen Cui into the hospital administrative post.
Unforeseen circumstances, Zhou’s father was killed in an air crash while going out to study. Perhaps out of sympathy, the hospital promoted the nature of Chen Cui’s work as a temporary worker.
Although the family’s savings and Chen Cui’s income are not much, they can support this incomplete family to maintain the original standard of living.
It is true that Chen Cui spends money without restraint, and also likes to play cards and mahjong. In Zhou Sisi’s impression, Chen Cui ran out whenever he had time, often losing money. It is about that when Zhou Sisi was quickly entering college in his third year of high school, Chen Cui learned to invest in others, and his debts multiplied.
Zhou Sisi didn’t dare not to be frugal. For more than three years in university, he never attended a dinner among his classmates.
After Chen Cui passed away in a car accident, creditors came one after another. Zhou Sisi will always remember the embarrassment and panic at that time…
“What are you going to make?” Chen Cui said, “Eat.”
Zhou Sisi’s eyelashes trembled, stuffed a potato into his mouth and chewed mechanically.
“Why do you keep your head down?” Chen Cui locked the phone, “Is not feeling well?” He reached out to touch her daughter’s forehead.
Zhou Sisi’s nose suddenly sore, and he hid subconsciously, still not looking at her, “No…”
“The temperature is normal.” Chen Cui retracted her hand and grabbed the phone to get up.
Zhou Sisi closed his eyes, “Can you stop gambling?”
“What kind of gambling, I am for entertainment,” Chen Cui said, “Hey, the time that I made with others is about to come.”
“After you finish eating, clear up the dishes and chopsticks.”
Zhou Sisi took a deep breath and slowly stuffed food into his stomach.
Why should she be reborn…
A name suddenly appeared in his mind again.
Together with that picture.
Perhaps, she can be a little better to this teenager in return.
***
Zhou Sisi didn’t know when Chen Cui came back, only heard the movement in the living room early in the morning.
After the sound of the door closed, Zhou Sisi walked out of the room.
She was about to make breakfast, but found that the rice cooker was holding white porridge and two steamed buns, and the heat was blowing in her face.
There is a sense of confusion wafting from the gap deep in my heart.
here we go again.
Zhou Sisi often hates that he is not a quick and easy temper.
Before going to bed last night, she clearly gritted her teeth and decided to stay away from Chen Cui immediately and sever relationship with Chen Cui—even though Zhou Sisi, a good student who has been following the rules since childhood, knows that it is difficult to live alone as a minor—now she is annoyed to find that this decision is shaking .
Zhou Sisi also left home as if fleeing.
When I walked to the top of the stairs, I realized that my hair was loose, wearing pajamas and cotton moppings, and came up slowly with my head hanging down.
Zhou Sisi leaned back against the door, feeling weak, not only the body that had not eaten for twelve hours, but also the empty heart.
Aunt Xu Xuelin on the opposite side began to train Lu Xi again.
Zhou Sisi didn’t mean to listen, it was because Aunt Xu’s voice was too loud.
“You must have played a game last night! Sit down for me!”
“Have you written your homework? Huh?”
“The teacher of the new speed reading class sent a text message saying that class will start in the morning. After breakfast, you can honestly give me class!”
Zhou Sisi thoughtfully.
“What? Your grandma specially enrolled you in the class, won’t you go?”
“Don’t take a look at your very small score, and if you don’t make up classes, you plan to beg for dinner in the future? Lu Xi, why are you going?”
“Go out to beg for dinner.” Lu Xi, who opened the door locally, was taken aback. Why is this young lady standing in the corridor again?
