MTL - After Two Lifetimes I Was Reborn Back Inside A Book-Chapter 102 Wear back the one hundred and second day
"Xu Chang?"
Jiang Chen recognized the young man in front of him at a glance, and his tone was slightly surprised.
Xu Chang didn't expect to see Jiang Chen here, he paused, hesitated for a while before nodding: "Senior Jiang." He moved his eyes down and landed on the little boy's red and slightly swollen face, his expression changed, Crouching down to check the little boy's injuries, "What's going on here?"
Hearing Xu Chang's anxiety, Jiang Chen explained: "When your younger brother was playing outside, he was hit by a young boy with something. My mother took him to my house for some medicine."
"Who smashed it?" Xu Chang raised his head with coldness in his eyes.
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised. He remembered that the first time he saw Xu Chang, he was being surrounded and beaten by Sun Zhi and the others. He didn't see him so angry when he was punched and kicked. Most of them are indifferent and precocious, but they didn't expect that his younger brother was very impulsive.
"My mother only saw a side profile, saying it was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old." Jiang Chen reminded: "Your brother is still young, so try not to let him go out alone in the future to avoid accidents."
"I'm not afraid!" The little boy held Xu Chang by the hand, raised his head and said, "Brother, I remember what he looks like, let's go find him!"
Xu Chang nodded, and was about to walk out while leading the little boy.
Jiang Chen didn't expect the two brothers to leave as soon as they said they would. He paused for a moment before raising his legs to follow.
The little boy knew the way very well. He led them around and walked through several houses without any hesitation in walking in one direction.
"This is it?" Xu Chang looked at the iron gate in front of him.
"He came out from here." The little boy pointed at the door, sniffed and said, "He also brought a bowl of sticky bean buns. I ate them yesterday, and they were very delicious."
Jiang Chen vaguely heard the sound of swallowing saliva from the sound of the boy sniffing, and Xu Chang was no exception. He lowered his head: "Did you ask someone for food?"
"No." The little boy shook his head immediately. He was not very old, but he was very organized: "He wasted food and threw the sticky bean buns on the ground. I picked them up and returned them to him. He asked me if I wanted to eat them, so I said I would eat them." of."
"Then why are you hurt?"
"Because he told me to stand a little farther away, and if I catch it, it's mine!" The little boy pursed his mouth: "But the sticky bean buns are too hard, so I only caught one." He took out a softened bun from his pocket. A lot of frozen sticky bean buns.
Xu Chang's face darkened, and he knocked on the door in front of him.
"Come on, come on!" The peasant woman pushed open the door, and when she saw Jiang Chen and the three outside the door, she was stunned, rubbed her hands together and said with a smile, "Xiao Jiang, why are you here to see my aunt?"
Jiang Chen didn't expect that Aunt Zhang who had given him a lot of food lived here, but he remembered that Aunt Zhang said that there was only one daughter in her family who was already working, "Aunt Zhang, we want to ask, is your family There was a boy about my age."
"Boy?" Aunt Zhang shook her head: "I'm just a daughter. I can't come back this year without buying a ticket for Chinese New Year. What's wrong?"
Jiang Chen and Xu Chang looked at each other, "It's nothing."
"But that brother came out from here!" The little boy stretched his head and looked inside, his eyes lit up: "And that one! That brother is holding that sticky bean bag!"
Aunt Zhang turned her head and looked at the little boy's hand. She saw the sticky bean buns she had frozen outside, and smiled: "That's what my aunt wrapped for the Chinese New Year. Do you want to eat it? My aunt will bring you a bowl each." go back."
"I want it!" The little boy raised his hand.
Xu Chang pressed down his younger brother's hand, his complexion improved, and he asked, "Auntie, did you give sticky bean buns to others today, a boy about our age."
"Yes!" Aunt Zhang said with a smile: "Not long ago, that boy from the He family took a bowl back from me, and the bowl hasn't been sent back yet. Are you hungry for him?"
"The He family?" Jiang Chen asked, "Do you know his name?"
"I don't know." Aunt Zhang shook her head: "The boys in their family, I think they should be the second."
"Second child?" Xu Chang narrowed his eyes: "He Qianmin?"
"It seems to be called He Qian or something." Aunt Zhang said, "It seems that their children all have this name, what's the matter? Are you looking for something with him?"
"It's nothing." Jiang Chen said, "Aunt Zhang, I'm sorry to bother you, let's go first."
"Just leaving? Don't bring a bowl of sticky bean buns? Auntie has other food at home, do you want it?" Aunt Zhang said: "Is there still sweet potatoes on the pot? Do you want to eat?"
Xu Chang has turned around leading the little boy.
"I'll eat it next time, thank you."
Jiang Chen took two steps in three steps, standing shoulder to shoulder with Xu Chang: "Are you going to the He family?"
Xu Chang: "He Qianmin beat my younger brother, of course I'm going to seek an explanation."
"I know Qian Min, he can't beat your brother."
"Aunt Zhang said she was the second child." Xu Chang knew that Jiang Chen and He Qianmin had a good relationship, and when he heard him defending He Qianmin, his tone sank: "Isn't the second child of the He family who He Qianmin is? people?"
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows lightly, and suddenly remembered something. It stands to reason that He Qianyang is the grandson of He's parents. When it comes to sorting, everyone starts from He Qianjian.
"He Qianyang should be here too." Jiang Chen said indifferently, "Aunt Zhang probably judged by her age."
Xu Chang frowned, and was about to say something when he saw several people walking towards him.
"elder brother!"
As soon as He Qianmin's eyes lit up, he raised his legs and walked towards Jiang Chen quickly. He Qianyu who was one step ahead of him was He Qianyu who was like a small cannonball. She opened her arms and threw herself into Jiang Chen's arms, holding her tightly without letting go.
Jiang Chen patted He Qianyu's head, looked at He Qianmin and He Qianyang who were approaching: "Where did you go just now?"
"Digging sweet potatoes." He Qianyang raised the basket in his hand: "When did you come here?"
"Morning." Jiang Chen glanced at Xu Chang, lowered his head and asked the boy he was leading, "Is there anyone here who just bullied you?"
The little boy shook his head: "No."
Xu Chang frowned: "It's not them?"
"What are you talking about?" He Qianyang asked.
Jiang Chen explained the matter, and He Qianmin hugged his chest and said, "We went up the mountain early in the morning, and the only one staying at home is He Qianjian."
He Qianyang frowned: "No matter how ignorant He Qianjian is, he wouldn't bully children."
He Qianmin felt that there was nothing He Qianjian couldn't do behind him, especially now that he was in a very bad mood, he could find anyone to take his anger out on, and this kid might just hit the gun.
However, in the final analysis, who is more unlucky may not know. When He Qianjian bullied this kid, he definitely never thought that this kid could call his brother to come to him.
Thinking about it this way, He Qianmin couldn't help but look forward to He Qianjian's expression: "Since this kid knows people, he will know when he goes back with us."
Jiang Chen saw He Qianmin's schadenfreude, rubbed his head, and said, "Speak less later."
"What can I say." He Qianmin curled his lips, a little aggrieved: "I just watch what he does."
"You—" Jiang Chen's voice paused, and he turned his head to look at He Qianyang. He Qianyang withdrew his hand very naturally, and affirmed with a smile: "Chenchen did a good job. Helping the poor and injured children is worthy of praise."
Jiang Chen's forehead twitched, he dodged He Qianyang's hands that were still in mud or dust, and felt depressed for the first time that he wanted to curse but could only hold it in his mouth.
"Do you still despise my brother?" He Qianyang raised his muddy hands and looked up to the sky and sighed: "These hardworking hands are digging sweet potatoes grown by the working people in order to feed my hungry brothers and sisters, but they always I don't know how to be grateful, I don't know how to understand my brother's hard work, and I even dislike the brother who dug sweet potatoes for them and dirty his hands, it's so hard to be a brother—ah—ah—”
Hearing that He Qianyang procrastinated three times and wanted to continue "ah", Jiang Chen couldn't bear it anymore, turned his head and said, "Brother, I'll get it for you."
He Qianyang handed the sweet potato basket to Jiang Chen, and patted his handprint on his shoulder: "Good boy."
Jiang Chen lifted the basket and said to Xu Chang, "Let's go."
"Your name is Xu Chang?" He Qianyang paused, "The Xu family?"
Xu Chang paused, his face turned cold: "Yes."
He Qianyang nodded slightly, and changed the subject: "I heard that Grandpa Xu will also celebrate the New Year here this year. Are you and your brother here to accompany him?"
Xu Chang's expression softened slightly, and his tone was much gentler than before: "I...Father doesn't have time, so let's come and accompany him."
"Is that so." He Qianyang thought of something and asked, "I remember you are also in Chenghua now, are you a sophomore in high school?"
Xu Chang nodded: "The first year of high school is in Yanyi Middle School, and the second year of high school is transferred there."
Jiang Chen raised his eyes and heard the chat between He Qianyang and Xu Chang. Only then did he know that Xu Chang had transferred to Chenghua in his sophomore year of high school. No wonder he didn't seem to have seen him this semester.
"Then you and Chenchen met when you were freshmen in high school?" He Qianyang always had a three-point smile on his face, and when he spoke to people with a relaxed tone, it was easy for people to let go of their guard: "How did you know each other?"
"Senior Jiang and his friends helped me," Xu Chang said.
He Qianyang nodded, raised his finger and pointed to the door: "Here we are, let's go in."
Xu Chang pursed his lips, led the little boy, and followed Jiang Chen into He's house.
Yang Yun was making dumplings with Mrs. He, when he saw He Qianyang and the others coming in, he put down the things in his hands, and said pleasantly, "Chenchen is here."
Seeing the bamboo basket in Jiang Chen's hand, Yang Yun immediately wanted to take it over: "Why are you carrying such a heavy thing? Your hand was cut last time and it hasn't healed yet. Didn't the doctor say that you should try not to lift heavy things?" ?"
Jiang Chen avoided Yang Yun's hand, bent his eyes and said, "It's been more than a month, it's already been healed."
"Your mother is right. If you are injured for a hundred days, even if it is three months, you should pay attention." Mrs. He also came over and said to He Qianyang: "Hurry up and help my brother carry it."
He Qianyang did not expect that Jiang Chen was injured, so he immediately took the basket and said, "If you are injured, don't tell me earlier, show me if the wound is open."
Jiang Chen withdrew his hand: "Good morning." He turned his head to look at the surprised Xu Chang, sighed inwardly, and said, "Mom, grandma, this is Xu Chang, he has something to do with bringing his brother here. "
"What's the matter?" Mrs. He, at this age, thinks any child is cute when she sees it. When she saw the little boy Xu Chang was holding, she immediately asked with a smile: "Little friend, what's your name? How old is this year? Come on, grandma What are you doing at home?"
"My name is Xu Xi. I'm five and a half years old. I'm here to find someone."
The little boy's voice was clear and sweet, and the old lady He smiled even deeper. She took out a piece of candy from her pocket and handed it to him, "Who are you looking for?"
"Look for a brother." Xu Xi took the candy, pointed to her injured face, and said with a pout, "That brother hit me."
Yang Yun took a closer look at Xu Xi's bruised face, looked up at Jiang Chen and the others, and asked in confusion, "What's going on?"
He Qianyang first recounted what he had just heard, and then said: "They went to Aunt Zhang's house, and Aunt Zhang said they belonged to our family, so they came here."
"Impossible." Mrs. He shook her head: "You guys went up the mountain early in the morning, and Qian Jian stayed at home and didn't go out. Aunt Zhang must have made a mistake."
Yang Yun knew that He Qianjian was going out today, but she didn't quite believe that he would bully the child. She knelt down and asked Xu Xi, "Little friend, do you remember what color the brother who hurt you was wearing today?"
"blue."
Yang Yun's face changed slightly, and he was silent for a few seconds, then he got up and said to He Qianyu, "Go and call Brother Qianjian down, saying that I have something to do with him."
