"This is our second daughter's birthday party. Come, one, two, three, I wish you..."
Cheng Dongyi enlivened the atmosphere in the room. As soon as he started to sing happy birthday to Deshan, he was interrupted by Deshan, who could no longer control his emotions.
"Stop it! I told you not to live with your sister, I told you!"
Deshan collapsed and cried, and the grievances he had felt during this period broke out at this moment.
"Why don't you listen to me? I told you not to celebrate birthdays with your sister in the future. I told you!"
"Let's spend this year together, and start living alone next year." Ichika quickly comforted Deshan.
"I said the same thing last year, and the year before that. Why are you doing this to me? Am I easy to bully? Am I someone who can be treated casually and it doesn't matter?
Why don't you fry poached eggs for me, I like poached eggs very much, and give me pickled beans all day long, and I don't like pickled beans either.
Also, why did you only buy World Cup ice cream for Yuhui? The same goes for fried whole chicken. I only give chicken drumsticks to my sister and Yuhui. I only give chicken wings, and I will also eat drumsticks! "
Deshan's words stunned Cheng Dongyi and Li Yihua. All along, the couple seemed to have ignored the feelings of their sensible second daughter.
"Deshan..."
Cheng Dongyi wanted to explain to Deshan, but at this time, Deshan's emotions were naturally in a state of explosion and collapse, and he interrupted his words by crying again.
"Why? Why am I the only one who is Deshan? My sister is Paula and he is Yu Hui. Why is it that I am the only one who is Deshan! Why do you call me Deshan!"
Deshan cried and left the house. The couple sat there blankly, with guilt on their faces. Paula was thoughtful, and Yuhui shrank back, afraid that the second sister would vent her anger on him.
"Uncle and aunt, I'm going to take a look. Please don't worry. Deshan's suppressed emotions just broke out. She loves you very much and wants your love." Gu Yu said to Cheng Dongyi and Li Yihua, and then prepared to get up.
"Gu Yu, I'm sorry for making you laugh. It's our fault as parents. Go ahead and comfort Deshan."
Cheng Dongyi cheered up, with a forced fake smile on his face. Li Yihua nodded gently to Gu Yu. At this moment, she was completely surrounded by guilt.
When Gu Yu chased him out, he saw Deshan sitting on the bench outside the canteen, breaking down and crying sadly. Nothing around her would affect her at this time.
Gu Yu sighed. Although he, an only child, could not sympathize with the feelings of the middle child among three children, he could feel Deshan's grievance.
Just like all the middle children in this world, the elder sister has to be humble because she is the elder sister, and the younger brother has to be humble because he is the younger brother. But I thought my parents knew about the noble spirit of sacrifice. It turns out that it is not, it is possible. Family members are the ones who don’t know the most.
"Ice cream? I didn't know what flavor you wanted to eat, so I brought them all. Haha, don't eat too much, your stomach won't be able to bear it."
Gu Yu sat next to Deshan. He went home and picked up a bag full of ice cream of various flavors.
Deshan looked blankly at Gu Yu, who was smiling in front of him. His cries, which had become quieter, became louder again as Deshan threw herself into Gu Yu's arms. Gu Yu hugged her gently, Stroking her hair.
After a while, Deshan calmed down after venting his emotions. Now he was eating ice cream with one in each hand.
"Gu Yu, this chocolate flavor is delicious, and this vanilla flavor is delicious too. Hmm~ Eat them both together, they taste even better."
"Haha, if you like it, just tell me. If I have a bunch of ice cream snacks at my house, please do me a favor and eat more." Gu Yu smiled and rubbed Deshan's head.
"Hehe, okay, I won't be polite, Brother Gu Yu." Deshan now felt the love from his brother that he didn't have before, and felt very happy.
"Deshan, you have to know that although uncles and aunts usually ignore your feelings, it cannot be denied that they also love you very much. Maybe you are always the one who gets the least compared to your sisters and brothers, but uncles and aunts must try their best to treat you the best. The best is reserved for the children, and they are the ones who receive the least in the family.”
Deshan thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
"Did I go a little too far just now?"
"It's not too much. If you feel wronged, don't tell your family, who should you tell it to? However, the Deshan I know shouldn't have an emotional outburst just because he is ignored by his parents, right?"
After hearing Gu Yu's words, Deshan lost his mood to continue eating ice cream and lowered his head.
"I, I am no longer the lady holding the card, Madagascar has withdrawn."
"So that's it, when will the Olympics open?"
"September seventeenth."
"What's today's number?"
"September 1st."
"Then there is still a chance, Deshan. Since a country that has agreed to participate in the competition will withdraw, it is also possible that a certain lady holding the card will withdraw due to health or other reasons, right?"
Deshan thought about what Gu Yu said. Although the chance was slim, it could not be said that there would be no chance.
"Yes, you work so hard every day. I believe your performance can be seen by the staff of the organizing committee. Therefore, it is not the time to be sad. Wait a moment. If things really turn around, why would you have to pay for being so sad now? Already?"
"Yes, I'll wait, what if? Then what should I do now?"
Deshan trusted Gu Yu very much and looked at him expectantly, seeking guidance. Gu Yu smiled and pointed at the ice cream in Deshan's hand.
"What I have to do now is eat ice cream happily."
"Hehe, Brother Gu Yu, can I get another one?"
"Okay, but this is the last one. Girls may feel uncomfortable if they eat too much."
"The last two, okay? I also want to have a strawberry flavor, Brother Gu Yu~"
Three days later, on Deshan's birthday, Gu Yu called her home after studying in the evening.
Cake, candles, birthday song, celebrated her birthday alone, and gave her prepared birthday gifts.
A set of Amore cosmetics, including foundation, eye shadow, eyebrow pencil, lipstick, etc. The gift given to Paula before was Amore lotion.
Deshan was very happy. Oppa shouted more diligently, and also shared with Gu Yu the good news that she was successful as a substitute and became the placard-raising girl again. She is a lucky child, but she has also put in a lot of hard work, and this is also the reward for her hard work. .
Today is also Shanyu's birthday. Shanying accidentally found half a pack of cigarettes in his son's room, and during this period, he became suspicious of the wound on his son's chin.
Sun Woo's mother roared at her son, and Sun Woo also explained that the injury to his chin was caused by an accidental razor injury.
At this moment, Shanyu's mother's anger turned into guilt, sadness, and self-blame. Because of her husband's death, her son had to figure it out on his own when he was about to learn to shave. After her husband's death, how much did she and her children silently endure?
Shanying burst into tears, and Sunwoo also hugged her mother and comforted her softly. In the evening, Sunwoo and Pearl paid homage to their deceased father and poured him a glass of rice wine that Sunwoo bought from the winery today.
The dead have passed away, and the living should embrace the future with strength.
The next day, Shanying talked about this matter with Miran and Ichika, who was thoughtful.
Shanying still didn't know who the cigarettes belonged to, so everyone made guesses without noticing that Pearl next to her was wearing Miran's clothes again, and there was a box of cigarettes in her clothes.
On Saturday afternoon, Gu Yu was doing literary creation at home, when Cheng Dongyi and Li Yihua came to the house.
"Haha, Gu Yu, let's go to the bathhouse to take a bath with uncle today."
"Yes, Gu Yu, you can just talk to your uncle about whether you have had any troubles at this age recently. Your uncle is someone who has been there and he understands." Li Yihua also echoed from the side.
"Uh, but, I usually wash at home, and I'm not used to going to the bathhouse." Gu Yu pointed to his bathroom.
"You can wash it at home, Gu Yu. Auntie has prepared bathing equipment for you. Look, there are towels, hair drying caps, razors..."
"Auntie, I don't need a razor, wait a minute." Gu Yu probably knew the purpose of his uncle and aunt's visit and walked into the bathroom.
"Uncle, aunt, I use a Braun electric shaver. It's very convenient and easy to use."
Looking at the electric shaver in Gu Yu's hand, Cheng Dongyi and Li Yihua suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Haha, this is good, wife. It suddenly occurred to me that our minister seems to have an appointment with me."
"Really? Then hurry up and keep your appointment. By the way, I'm still making kelp soup. Gu Yu, uncle and aunt are leaving first. You go ahead and get busy."
The couple was a little embarrassed and each found a reason to leave Gu Yu's house. Gu Yu looked at the two people leaving. On the way, Cheng Dongyi was still complaining that his wife didn't understand the situation. He felt very warm in his heart and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
