Obligations of the elderly

It was a white sock, made of a material that felt creamy in the palace, it fit the foot shape perfectly, and the stitches were so fine that it looked like it was hand-stitched.

but--

This is a sock that is at least 25 yards in size. It is still a sock. The point is that it looks worn. Although it is clean, but, but——

Gong Si waited expressionlessly for the person opposite to explain to him.

"This is for Mr. Gong Siji. It is a personal item of our master. The ceremony of deed between the master and young master Gong Siji will be held in ten days. In order to increase the success rate of the ceremony, experts suggest that it is best to adopt a step-by-step process. There is a way to let the person who is the instrument adapt to the energy of the user, but now the master is still in a coma, and the young master Siji is too young, so a more gentle method is needed." The waiter replied politely.

However, no amount of politeness can change the fact that this is a perverted method!

"A more gentle way is to let Aji wear a stinky sock every day?!" Gong Si looked incredible: God knows, when they sent the socks, they said "Please wear this thing every day, Mr. Siji", and he still I thought it was some kind of jade pendant sachet on the plate, and picked it up to have a look—a stinky sock? !

"Master's socks don't stink at all." The waiter retorted gently at first, and then continued: "And it's not that Mr. Siji wears socks to smell every day, as long as he wears them. An unwashed item worn by the master has its own energy information, as long as Mr. Siji wears it, he will naturally feel the energy information of the master, and slowly start to adapt..."

"It's said to be unwashed, and it's not smelly socks..." Gong Si still looked shocked.

however--

"This is for the good of Mr. Siji. Gradually getting used to the user's energy information is the softest way to establish a connection with the device." The man said.

As long as it is heard that it is for Aji's good, Gongsi has no way to continue to object.

He could only grab the sock, watched the other party salute himself and then leave.

That night, the sock slept under his pillow.

Yes, under his pillow.

Gong Si finally accepted the other party's proposal.He found a dress with a pocket for Aji, and put the socks neatly in the pocket of the dress during the day, but not at night: Aji was used to sleeping without clothes, so he wore a pair of diapers , you can't put socks in diapers, can you?

No way, Gong Si put the socks under his pillow for no other reason → Aji never sleeps on pillows, and sleeps next to his elder brother as slippery as a little fat fish every night. Was thrown, and then sweetly slumped on my brother's pillow, dripping saliva on it!

In this case, Gong Si can only put the socks here.When I thought about whether the socks belonged to the old man, or they were worn...

Gong Si is feeling down!

Obviously the other party's socks don't smell bad at all, and he doesn't have the so-called cleanliness either!

Anyway, ever since this sock was put under the pillow, Gong Si has never had a good night's sleep, either unable to fall asleep, or falling asleep and having nightmares. On the contrary, Aji is heartless and sleeps soundly every day, occasionally not sleeping. Carefully found a sock from under the pillow, he still wanted to grab it and bite it——

Gong Si thought of course he wouldn't let him bite!

When those people came to ask about Aji's condition, Gongsi told the truth, and the other party said that this was a good sign, which proved that Aji had received the energy information from their master well, and the next step could be taken.

Next step?Before the question mark on Gong Si's head completely popped out, the other party had already brought a second plate, which contained something - a nightgown.

Palace: =-=

Although it is exquisite, although the material is very good, and there are even hand-embroidered flowers on it, but this robe looks like something that grandpas would wear. Thinking again that the person who made the contract with his younger brother is an old man, the palace is troubled again.

He didn't know what was wrong with him. He obviously thought that this would be an ideal object at first, but when such an object was really presented in front of him, Gong Si felt that perhaps it would be better to be younger, the same age as Aji, two people We can grow together and so on...

In this way, the other party's belongings were delivered one by one, and when the room was filled with the other party's personal belongings, Gong Si felt that he could already piece together what kind of person the other party was.

Probably just an old man who is fastidious, meticulous, and furry... right?

Looking at the various "personal items" in the room that he thinks are very impractical and more like traditional works of art, Gong Si thought.

The days passed day by day like this, and I don't know how much Aji has adapted to that person's energy information. In short, the date of the so-called "contract" is getting closer.

Tomorrow is the day when Aji makes a contract with that person.

Not knowing what will happen tomorrow, Gong Si is very nervous, but he tries not to show this emotion, because it will make his other two younger brothers even more nervous.

Walking out of the hot spring pool, Gong Si went to the cold pool next to him to soak for a while before walking out of the bathroom.

Back in his and Aji's room, he originally wanted to sleep there, but unexpectedly, his cell phone, which hadn't been ringing for a long time, suddenly rang.

Because I haven't used my mobile phone for a long time, Gong Si was stunned for a long time and didn't know where the song came from. In the end, Aji found out the ringing mobile phone from nowhere, and pushed the mobile phone over to him while crawling. Only then did Gong Si grab the phone.

He thought it would be the call from his parents, or the teacher at the school, but when he saw the name "Xi Liu" flashing on the phone screen, he was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly picked up the phone.

"Hey~ Deputy squad leader, are you okay?" A clear male voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding quite energetic, but Gong Si could hear that his voice was hoarse than usual.

It is the sound of the stream.

Gong Si did not speak for a long time.

"Why don't you talk? I thought you would have a lot of questions to ask me." He heard Xiliu laughing over there.

Gong Si can imagine what the stream looks like at this moment, he should be leaning there, holding a book or a glass of drink in his hand, and talking to himself with a smile.

In Gongsi's imagination, Xiliu was wearing student uniforms, after all, they saw each other most often wearing uniforms.

"There's nothing I want to ask." Gong Si finally spoke, sitting by the window, he looked at the scattered lights downstairs, and then said to the person on the other end of the phone: "Knowing that you are alive, I am relieved."

"..." Xi Liu on the other end of the phone didn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, he heard Xiliu speak again: "I also thought I would die this time..."

There was still a smile in his tone.

What kind of person is this... who can talk about his own death so easily?

Gong Si frowned: "It's better to live than to die. As long as you live, good things will always happen. Take it easy."

"How are you doing now? Can you get out of bed? Can you walk? Have you been discharged from the hospital? Hey—you don't know how to operate?" Good guy!Once the palace, which had been very dull just now, started to ask questions, it would be a series of questions!

Xi Liu's laughter came from the other end of the phone: "So many questions, which one do you want me to answer?"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that the body is weak, the fetus is weak, the kind that doesn't need surgery, I've got out of bed now, and I can walk..."

"That's good." Gong Si said to him.

The two remained silent for a long time, and finally, the two spoke almost simultaneously:

"I say you--"

"How is Coldwater now—"

Pause.

"You speak first."

"You first--"

The two spoke again at the same time.

The two laughed, and in the end it was Gong Si who answered Xi Liu's question first:

"It's really cold in Lengshui Town now."

"Snowflake is as big as a fist, not a girl's small fist, but a man's fist like ours."

"It snows almost every day, and the buses are out of service."

"By the way, I only found out this year that the bus driver also drives a snow plow. He is the one who drives the snow plow in the town every year!"

"He is very nice, and when he meets people who can't go back or are inconvenient to go to the town, he will use the snowplow to drive them there."

"The fish in Lengshui Town is at its best time. This is the coldest time, and the fish oil is also the fattest. The fish has a high proportion of fat, and it will ooze oil when you bite into it!"

"The fruit is also very delicious when frozen, not worse than the colorful whirlwind..."

To sum up a scene in one sentence, Gong Si talked about the life situations in the town.

What he said was very realistic, as if he was still living in that cold but beautiful small town at this moment.

"The stream in the town didn't freeze at all, and neither did the ponds and water tanks at home. Although I live in the town, I still find it quite strange."

He didn't lie, what he said was his memory, Lengshui Town in his memory.

So fresh.

Because he had lived there so actively, the town was so vivid in his memory.

It was at this time that Gong Si realized that he really wanted to go back and continue to live in that small town.

However, that is impossible.

If Aji succeeds in signing a contract with that guy tomorrow, he will definitely try his best to stay in this place before Aji becomes an adult. First, he will ask the other party to agree to continue to live with him as Aji's guardian. If not, he will stay and live here. Find a way to live where Aggie lives;

If tomorrow's signing is not successful...

Gongsi didn't continue to think about it.

All he knew was that, either way, he'd never get back to that town.

He was a little lost——

"...that's great." Until the sigh of the stream came from the other end of the phone.

"I really want to go back to Lengshui Town immediately."

"I didn't think about it that way before, but after hearing what you said, I really... really want to go back, immediately, immediately."

"Then go back." Gong Si still pretended that he was still living there, closed his eyes, and imagined in his heart that this was a call from Xiliu that he received at home in Lengshui Town.

"Well, wait for me, I'll be right back."

"When we meet again, can I have the stewed fish you made?" Xiliu asked.

"..." Without directly answering his question, Gong Si smiled: "Come back soon."

Saying again, he hung up the phone.

Sitting by the window, closing his eyes, he buried his head deeply in his knees.

***

On the other side of the window, Gongsi was feeling homesick in front of the window.And in front of another huge window facing his window, in a distant direction, another man was sitting on a huge bed.

It was a big white soft bed with the same soft cushions at the back, and the man was sitting on the bed leaning on the cushions at the moment.

His face was pale, without a trace of blood. He was sitting there, wearing a fine-textured jacket. It was a traditional dress. It is hand embroidered.

He was sitting there with a mobile phone in his hand, and he seemed to have just finished talking.

Although his face was pale, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

He looks out the window—

It’s snowing outside the window, although it’s also snowing, but the snow here is completely different from the snow in that place~

The snow here is too soft.

he thinks.

Then, putting down his cell phone, he rang the bell on the bedside. After the crisp ringing, several old men came from the door with their heads lowered one by one.

If you look carefully, you will find that the old man in the head is the old man surnamed Xie who went to the palace to "invite someone", and the other five people are no strangers, they are other old people who had a meeting with the old man surnamed Xie in the meeting room before.

They were originally kneeling outside the door together, and they knelt for a long time, until the bell rang, and they stood up again and returned to this room.

"Let's make a contract tomorrow." When the master said this, everyone, headed by the old man surnamed Xie, raised their heads in surprise.

"Why this expression?" The man on the bed smiled and said, "Before, I might have said that you all knelt down and insisted on me. I let you go out, and you continued to kneel outside. Now that I agree, what do you do?" So surprised instead?"

Tilting his head slightly, the man looked at them.

"I...we are just too happy, master, have you really decided to make a contract?" Lifting his wrinkled face, the old man surnamed Xie asked again as if he couldn't believe it.

"Yeah." The man nodded.

Then there was a cry from below.

"You guys..." There was a soft sigh in his mouth, and the man smiled slightly again.

It was the old man surnamed Xie who was the calmest. He pursed the drooping corners of his mouth, and he couldn't help looking at the man: "Excuse me...you...why did you suddenly change your mind?"

He still couldn't believe it. After all, the master hadn't changed his mind on anything he had decided. It was precisely because of this that he couldn't believe it.

"It's just that I suddenly want to continue living." Said softly, the man leaned his body back to the backrest, his eyes looked at the window on the right, and he stopped talking.

Bowing again, the old man surnamed Xie retreated softly with the others.

***

After solving the last and most difficult problem, the contract signing ceremony was held as scheduled.

The author has something to say: Man: It's you!It's you!You let me rekindle the hope of life~

Gongsi: MMP!
