After a while, Jiang Chen rode a small electric donkey to the gate of the town middle school.
At this time, many private cars, motorcycles, e-mules, etc. were parked at the entrance of the town middle school.
Many parents stood at the school gate, and some stretched their necks to look into the school gate.
Some parents stood there with their heads down playing with their mobile phones.
There were also two or three parents gathered together and chatting.
...
Jiang Chen came here to pick up Jiang Yan, the child of Jiang Chen's second uncle's family.
Jiang Yan is now in the third grade of junior high school and will take the high school entrance examination next year. He is busy with studies every day.
School doesn't end until 10:30 in the evening, and Jiang Chen and his father usually come to pick Jiang Yan up from school.
Jiang Chen happened to be at home today, so he asked his father to rest at home while he came to pick up Jiang Yan.
Speaking of Jiang Yan's life experience, Jiang Chen felt quite uncomfortable.
Jiang Chen's second aunt died in a car accident that year, leaving Jiang Yan as his child.
Jiang Yan then followed Jiang Chen and his second uncle to depend on each other. Later, Jiang Chen's second uncle drank and gambled all day long and didn't care about Jiang Yan's life or death. Jiang Yan was in a particularly difficult situation.
Jiang's mother really felt sorry for Jiang Yan, the child.
I think Jiang Yan's child has a hard life. He lost his mother at a young age, and his father is not like that. With Jiang Yan by his father's side, this child will be ruined sooner or later.
Jiang's mother thought to herself, raising Jiang Chen's child was enough to support him, and she could still raise another child. Life would be very difficult, and she didn't want Jiang Yan, the child, to suffer.
Jiang's mother discussed with Jiang's father to take Jiang Yan's child to live with him.
Jiang's father was very moved by Jiang's mother's move. Of course he agreed ten thousand times. There was nothing he could do about his unfulfilled brother.
Jiang's mother and Jiang's father had discussed it and specifically asked for Jiang Chen's opinion. When they told Jiang Chen about this matter, they were afraid that Jiang Chen would disagree, so they said it very tactfully.
How could Jiang Chen disagree? He raised his hands in agreement. His parents were by his side. He had both fatherly and motherly love.
Jiang Yan is different. He has experienced so much at a young age.
Jiang Chen does indeed feel sorry for his younger brother.
Jiang Yan came to Jiang Chen's house in the fifth grade of elementary school. Jiang Yan is now in the third grade of junior high school.
Soon, the school door was opened by security guards.
Students walked out of the campus one after another.
Jiang Chen searched for Jiang Yan among many students...
...
Not long after, Jiang Chen drove Jiang Yan back home.
Jiang's mother heated up the food she had reserved for Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan took a simple bite, chatted with Jiang Chen for a few words, and then went back to his room to study.
Jiang Yan is a child who is not good at words and is usually dull. He has always been like this in his family for so many years.
Jiang Chen felt that the reason for Jiang Yan's current state must be related to his childhood experience.
There is a saying,
An unfortunate childhood takes a lifetime to heal,
A happy childhood can heal a lifetime.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yan is the former;
Jiang Chen had never experienced Jiang Yan's experiences when he was a child. He couldn't possibly empathize with Jiang Yan.
But Jiang Chen can understand him, he really can understand him,
Jiang Chen sincerely hopes that this younger brother will be happy in his future life.
...
Jiang Chen returned to his room after taking a shower,
He lay on the bed with his arms folded,
His eyes were staring blankly at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jiang Chen stood up suddenly, opened the door and came to Jiang Yan's door.
Jiang Chen saw the light inside through the gap in the door.
Jiang Chen knew that Jiang Yan was still studying and Jiang Yan had been working hard.
Jiang Chen stood there quietly for a moment, then he walked back to his room.
Jiang Chen lay back on the bed, picked up his phone and looked at the time on it. It was almost twelve o'clock.
I don’t know if Xiao Nizi is asleep?
——
at this time,
Su Qingning in the rental house, she closed the bedroom door tightly.
Her whole body was curled up on the small bed, the quilt wrapped her body, only her little head was exposed.
Su Qingning picked up her phone and looked at the time.
She had been lying in bed for an hour,
She still couldn't sleep at all.
Su Qingning looked at the position beside her. In the past, Jiang Chen would lie there.
It's empty now,
One night when I was separated from Jiang Chen,
She missed him so much.
Su Qingning picked up her phone and clicked on the WeChat dialog box with Jiang Chen.
She is in the dialog box,
He tapped a few words with his fingers,
Just about to click send,
She hesitated again,
Su Qingning deleted all the words she just typed in the dialog box.
She thought about it again,
She re-entered the words she just entered into the dialog box.
Then, she was confused again,
Delete it again,
So repeatedly,
In the end, Su Qingning still didn't send the message.
Jiang Chen must be asleep at this time,
She woke him up, bad.
But, she just couldn't sleep.
Without Jiang Chen lying beside her, she felt very uneasy.
She really wanted to talk to Jiang Chen.
However, she couldn't disturb Jiang Chen.
She can't be so ignorant,
Jiang Chen was not with her for just one night.
She couldn't let Jiang Chen worry.
________
Jiang Chen was lying on the bed,
Holding mobile phone in hand,
His eyes looked at the top row of words in the dialog box,
The other party is typing...
and then disappeared again,
The other party is typing appears again at the top of the dialog box.
then disappear again,
This was repeated several times,
Jiang Chen didn't see any messages sent in his dialog box.
Why is this little girl so hesitant?
Jiang Chen waited for another minute and saw that there was still no movement in the dialog box.
Jiang Chen couldn't hold it any longer, so he directly sent a video invitation to Su Qingning.
Su Qingning, who was huddled in the quilt, saw the video invitation sent by Jiang Chen.
Her eyes lit up instantly, and a smile immediately appeared on her lips,
She deliberately waited a short moment before connecting to the video.
After Su Qingning connected to the video, she rubbed her eyes deliberately.
Pretending to be awakened by the sound of the video, he squinted his eyes and looked at Jiang Chen in the video.
