Words:2022Update:22/06/27 03:36:10
There were more and more things in Xu Jin's room. This guy was like the evil dragon in the stories. He liked to collect a lot of things to decorate his nest and hide all the good stuff in his room.
He could see it every day when he opened his eyes. This was the beginning of a happy day.
Xu Shi 'an couldn't understand this kind of hobby. There were many things in Xu Jin's room that looked familiar, as if Xu Jin had used various methods to get them.
He hadn't been here for a few days, and he noticed that there was another wooden plate on the wall of Xu Jin's room. There were circles and some small symbols on it. If he wasn't wrong, this was originally hung in Jiang He's room.
Xu Jin sat cross-legged on the bed and aimed with one eye. Then, he threw the dart in his hand. Xu Shi 'an's heart skipped a beat.
"Why is this in your room?"
Xu Shi 'an couldn't help but feel strange. He tried to pull the dart out of the wooden plate.
Xu Jin didn't throw it with two fingers like he did balloons at the night market. Instead, he threw it with his wrist. This way, he would have more strength and accuracy — Jiang He said that if one didn't have enough wrist strength, it would be difficult to hit accurately. One had to use force. That was why he used a special wooden plate instead of a plastic one.
"I traded with Mom," Xu Jin said.
"Huh? What did you trade with? "
"Translating Dad's foreign language."
"Oh …"
Xu Shi 'an gave up. He really couldn't do it.
"Say, we should be in our rebellious phase now, right?"
“?”
Xu Jin looked at Shi 'an and thought for a moment. After a while, he said, "Is it because you haven't been beaten by Mom for a long time that your skin is itching?"
"… They're reasonable. I don't think so." Xu Shi 'an couldn't help but scratch his butt.
Xu Jin sometimes couldn't guess what his stupid brother was thinking. This guy often didn't play by the rules.
"How do you want to be rebellious? Dye your hair green? "she asked.
"No, how is that possible …"
Xu Shi 'an thought about the consequences of dying Xu Qing's hair green. Putting aside the fact that it would look ugly, there was still the electric hair clipper that Jiang He used to help Xu Qing cut his hair. He reckoned that Jiang He would immediately clean Xu Qing's hair in less than three minutes.
After that, he would be bald.
"We've never been to an internet cafe before."
"It's free to play at home. Oh right, your grades aren't that good. What game do you want to play? I'll play it for you." Xu Jin considered herself to be a good sister.
Xu Shi 'an was silent for a moment. He didn't know if he should say thank you or what. How could he say something like a substitute player?
It was simply infuriating.
"I don't want to play, it's just …" He tried hard to think. What was he thinking before he came in?
"She's just itching for a beating." Xu Jin was very understanding. "Go and pluck her flowers, then you'll be able to enjoy it."
"…"
Xu Shi 'an threw the dart with all his might, but it was off target and flew into the wall next to him. Fortunately, there was a foam protective wall behind the wall to prevent the dart from ricocheting off target. The skewed dart landed on the wall.
"I think Dad actually knows everything. Nothing you do will surprise him. He's even prepared." Xu Jin looked at Shi An and said, "Haven't you noticed that he hasn't …"
"Nothing?"
"Nothing …" Xu Jin frowned. He didn't know how to tell his brother.
Anyway, ever since the two of them became teenagers, Xu Qing rarely instilled ideas into them directly. He didn't even want to talk much. He only occasionally cared about their grades.
The way he held the thermos flask and smiled, as if everything was under his control.
"Brother, if you want to be rebellious, you have to pay attention to the element of surprise. Do something that they won't expect. Only then will he be surprised to find that he can no longer control you."
Xu Jin's words made Shi An stop fiddling with the dart. He climbed onto her bed and sat down. "Surprise?"
"Our dad is astute and astute. Look at how he acts every day."
"How?"
"You think of a way to get first place. He definitely won't expect it. He might even suspect that you copied it. But if you get first place, who else can you copy from? This will make him doubt his life."
"I'll doubt my life too." Xu Shi 'an realized that he was really stupid to believe that Xu Jin was reliable.
He climbed down from Xu Jin's bed. He didn't want to talk to Xu Jin anymore. If only Xiaoxiao was here …
"Do you want me to get first place and then go to them to ask for credit?" Xu Shi 'an walked to the door and turned around suspiciously.
"Am I that kind of person?" Xu Jin asked.
She had indeed been eyeing Xu Qing's armor for a long time and wanted to move it to her room.
"You can write the names of the people you don't like on it and use it every day."
Xu Shi 'an pointed at the wooden tray and turned to leave.
"Childish."
Xu Jin took out another dart from the box next to him. He turned it a few times in his hand but didn't throw it.
What did his mom do in the past?
Once this curiosity was ignited, it was very annoying. What kind of person would not practice martial arts but lie on a yoga mat like a toad and even know how to throw darts …
His dad was also quite strange. He was good at swordsmanship and had a majestic looking armor. Yet, he wandered around with a thermos flask every day like Grandpa Xiaoxiao.
Oh, and Uncle Wang often used a wheelchair …
Xu Jin raised his head and thought for a while. He went out of the living room and saw Jiang He fiddling with the ginger sprouts in the box. It was a small bonsai in water cultivation and a bucket in soil cultivation. Xu Jin didn't know why his mom liked to fiddle with ginger so much. Maybe it was because of her surname?
"Mom, what did you do in the past?" She lay on the sofa and asked softly.
"I farmed." Jiang He didn't even raise his head.
"What happened after that?"
"I became half a scholar."
"Half a scholar?"
"Because of you guys, I couldn't go to school anymore." Jiang He raised his head and looked at his daughter with a regretful look. "What a pity … Fortunately, you are good at studying and you take after me." She sighed and continued to fiddle with her little ginger sprouts on the floor.
"Shameless." Xu Qing came back from the balcony and couldn't help but ridicule her when he heard what she said.
Jiang He looked up and glared at him.
"Okay, you are a scholar."
"I am."
"…"
Xu Jin looked at them from head to toe. "I think you guys are from an acrobatic troupe."
All signs indicated that only an acrobatic troupe could do so many strange things. But why did they abandon their old profession? Could it be that there was some secret?
"Don't talk nonsense. Your mom is a female bandit in ancient times."
"Xu Qing!"
"I'm going to check tomorrow's weather report."
Xu Jin didn't get any answers after being interrupted by Xu Qing and Jiang He. Farming, studying, and female bandit …
"Mom, what did my dad do in the past?" She couldn't help but ask.
"Unemployed." Jiang He didn't even raise his head.
"What about now?"
"A middle-aged unemployed man."
"…"
"Don't learn from him. He doesn't do anything serious every day and always makes me angry." Jiang He reminded her.
Xu Jin lay on the sofa and tilted her head, looking at the couple with her eyes.
The previous generation seemed interesting.
