Chapter 127 Shen Que Returns Home
Shen Que's tall figure appeared outside the train station. He took a deep breath because he was eager to go home after not returning for a long time.
The air in my hometown has a smell.
“Ahem—”
The smell of smoke is a bit strong!
Shen Que looked at the old man with wrinkles on his face and a pipe in his hand.
He nodded to the old man, who smiled and asked, "Young man, do you want a tricycle?"
Shen Que refused.
How could a grown man like him have the nerve to ride in a tricycle pulled by an old lady?
After the rejection, Shen Que walked towards the bus stop. The old man smoking a pipe behind him tapped his pipe and curled his lips.
"A cripple...what's the point of trying to be so brave?"
The back of the man is sometimes taller and sometimes shorter. It is not noticeable when he is standing, but it is very obvious when he is walking.
As he had expected, he was able to stand up, but he was limping.
Chen Que found the bus stop, got on the bus nervously, and stood upright holding the railing.
I wonder what Jiang Cheng would think if he saw this?
He knew in his mind that Jiang Cheng was a man with a firm goal, and he also knew that Jiang Cheng would not have contacted him if he did not have a good impression of him.
But knowing it in my head was one thing, and the uneasiness in my heart did not diminish at all.
With my mood in ups and downs, I arrived at the nearest bus stop to my home.
The feeling of being homesick is perfectly displayed in Shen Que.
He walked very fast for the few hundred meters.
But when I reached the entrance of the alley, I couldn't move forward.
It was the weekend, and the children playing at the door saw Chen Que, who was not familiar to them.
Some children recognized him as Shen Xing and Shen Yue's elder brother.
A child in the compound ran into the yard, yelling, "Shen Xing, your big brother is back!"
Shen Xing, who was helping to light the fire, dropped the firewood in his hand to the ground with a clatter and stood up suddenly.
"What did you say?"
The child who ran over to deliver the letter pointed to the front door and shouted, "Your brother is back! I saw him!"
Shen Xing didn't care whether it was true or not, and he didn't have time to ask whether it was true or not.
He rushed out directly.
When Shen Que outside heard the child shouting, he was already walking towards the compound.
A big one and a small one happened to meet at the gate.
Shen Xing looked up.
Shen Que lowered his head.
Shen Xing's tears quickly accumulated, but he was determined to hold them back.
Shen Que smiled and stretched out a hand to touch Shen Xing's head.
"Are you stupid? You don't even recognize my big brother!"
Shen Xing pursed his lips and said in a pretended disdain: "You still remember to come back!"
Shen Que didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Why do I have a feeling that he is a heartless man?
"You little brat, you're still plotting against your big brother!"
Chen Que rubbed a little harder, and Shen Xing felt a little more realistic about Chen Que's return. He wanted to laugh but was suppressed by him.
"I didn't!"
Shen Xing dodged Shen Que's hand, didn't turn around, walked a few steps and then looked back.
"What's wrong? You don't recognize your home?"
Shen Que understood that Shen Xing was resentful. He nodded without caring at all and deliberately teased Shen Xing, "My legs hurt. This threshold is too high."
"What's wrong with your legs?"
Shen Xing ran back anxiously, holding Chen Que's arms with both hands, staring at Chen Que's legs nervously.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a limp."
Shen Que said he didn't care and limped over the threshold.
The tears accumulated in Shen Xing's eyes could no longer be held back, and they fell to the ground with a plop, raising a circle of dust.
His elder brother, the heroic elder brother, is lame!
Shen Xing held Shen Que's hand and exerted force.
Shen Que deliberately leaned against Shen Xing's body and said, "Do you feel sorry for big brother?"
Shen Xing sniffed hard and looked up at Shen Que.
"Brother, you'll be at home from now on, right?"
Shen Que looked at Shen Xing and hummed.
"From now on, we'll be at home, together as a family."
The first feeling that came into Shen Xing's heart was happiness.
He subconsciously felt that he was wrong, but he couldn't help it.
Shen Xing supported Chen Que as they walked in and whispered, "That's good. It's better than when I received a call asking them to collect your body." Chen Que heard it.
Just because I heard it, I felt even more sorry for Shen Xing.
"From now on, I have my big brother. Now that I'm back, I won't leave you alone anymore."
Shen Xing pulled down Shen Que's palm and retorted: "I am not alone, I have my aunt, Yueyue, and Sister Jiang Cheng."
As soon as Jiang Cheng said these two words, Shen Que instantly became more serious.
The tension that had just been let go rose up again.
"You—Sister Jiang Cheng—"
"Shen Quo!"
Grandma Shen is here.
After hearing the news, Grandma Shen, who was working with Aunt Sun at home, hurried out and just saw Shen Xing supporting Shen Que in.
! .
"Aunt, I'm back."
Shen Que let go of Shen Xing and stood up straight.
Grandma Shen came over and looked at Shen Que's legs unnaturally.
Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence: It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back.
Shen Que's return brought out many people from the Siheyuan.
"Shen Que is back!"
"But that's great! This family needs a pillar."
"You won't leave when you come back, right?"
"What's wrong with this leg?"
Shen Que answered them one by one.
I can't walk anymore because my leg is lame.
That's it.
After giving a concise answer, Grandma Shen dispersed the crowd and pulled Shen Que into the house.
Shen Que subconsciously looked around but didn't see Jiang Cheng.
"Aunt, Jiang Cheng is not here?"
Grandma Shen, who was full of concern, suddenly became gossipy.
Shen Que asked Jiang Cheng?
Why?
Is there a connection between these two people?
Grandma Shen’s suspicious eyes fell on Shen Que.
"What are you planning, kid?"
Chen Que's expression was serious, and he said without showing any difference: "What ideas can I have? I mainly want to thank Comrade Jiang Cheng."
Grandma Shen carefully identified it for a while, but didn't see anything.
Is she overthinking?
"Jiang Cheng took Yueyue to learn painting."
“Oh…I see.”
Shen did not ask any more questions.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to say it, but Grandma Shen is different from Director Lian and others. She knows Jiang Cheng and has a good relationship with him.
He had to get Jiang Cheng's consent before he could express his ideas.
Shen Que was chatting with Grandma Shen, and Shen Xing was sitting aside listening.
"You're not leaving this time, right?"
"No, I'm discharged from the army."
"That's fine. You'll have to come back to this house sooner or later."
Grandma Shen looked at Shen Que’s legs again.
"Your legs?"
"It's just a little lame, but it's fine otherwise."
Grandma Shen was sad and didn’t plan to ask too much. Shen was sure that she was uncomfortable.
"Okay, clean up and I'll go cook."
Grandma Shen got up to cook, and Shen Xing and Shen Que went into the room where Jiang Cheng had lived before.
Shen Xing walked in front and started to become a chatterbox.
"This house was previously occupied by Sister Jiang Cheng. Now Sister Jiang Cheng lives next door."
Shen Que was secretly delighted.
Living next door is better than renting Director Lian’s house as it is closer.
"The quilts are all clean. My aunt washed them two days ago. They were used by Sister Jiang Cheng before. If you dislike them..."
"Won't."
Shen Que answered immediately, Shen Xing turned his head suspiciously, looked at Shen Que and said, "There is no need to dislike it."
"Brother...you're a little weird."
Spoiler alert, the hero's legs will be fine
