Chapter 11 (1/2)
Facing the sunset, Yang Mu rode a bicycle, slowly, humming a tune into the community, drove to the place of his own small building.
In the yard, Lei Shangwu has come back. At this time, Lei Shangwu is working in the yard with Lei Ming and Lei Hong. Lei Shangwu mows the lawn and shrubs in the yard, while Lei Ming and Lei Hong follow behind with brooms. Although their movements are slow, they are trying hard to clean them up.
Yang Mu pushed his bicycle to the gate of the yard. Leihong, who was lively and active, immediately found out and called out to several people in the yard: ”brother is back.”
Lei Shangwu also heard it and straightened up and looked at the gate of the hospital.
Yang Mu put away his bike, carried it into the yard and said hello to Lei Hong.
”Thunder, are you sweeping the floor?” Yang Mu touched Lei Hongyuan's rolling head and put his bike into the garage.
”Xiao Mu is back.” Lei Shangwu also said hello to Yang Mu and continued to trim the shrubs in front of him with his scissors.
Yang Mu Ying said, put things away, and then took a pair of big scissors in the garage, also to help trim in the yard.
Lei Shangwu saw it and said with a smile, ”Xiao Mu, don't you have a rest to drink water?”
Yang Mu shook his head, smiling and pruning the Bush in front of him. ”No, I don't feel tired when I go out to play.”
After hearing this, Lei Shangwu laughed and opened his mouth. He wanted to say something more. But looking at Yang Mu who was helping with his work, he didn't know what to say. He was embarrassed for a moment, so he had to pick up the scissors again and cut them.
”Brother, you can't cut it like this. You have to cut it short, or it will grow up again like dad said.”
In the courtyard, there was only the click of scissors, and the thunder of cleaning came out. Standing beside Yang Mu with a broom, one pointed to the Bush that Yang Mu was pruning.
”Well, if you cut it so short, you can wave, or leave it a little longer”
Yang Mu turned his head and looked at the thunder with a serious expression on his face and agreed with a smile. He asked about the thunder, while holding the scissors to draw on the Bush,.
Lei Hong, who is a little younger, also came to join in the fun. The two little guys scrambled to direct Yang Mu to prune the shrubs. Then, for the topic of ”brother wants to listen to brother” and ”brother wants to let his brother go”, a man clubbed a broom and stood arguing face to face.
Yang Mu on one side made him laugh.
All of a sudden, the courtyard was full of frolic sounds, so lively.
At this time, Lei Shangwu seemed to find the topic and asked.
”Xiao Mu, the college entrance examination is coming soon. Have you ever thought about which school to go to?”
Yang Mu straightened up from Lei Ming and Lei Hong, who was playing. He looked up at Lei Shangwu, thought for a moment and said, ”I haven't thought about it. I want to hear the opinions of Uncle Lei and your mother. Anyway I'll see it later. ”
Lei Shangwu heard Yang Mu say so, but he stopped his work. He had some doubts on his face. He thought about it for a while and said to Yang Mu.
”If I say You will be encouraged to study finance and make a lot of money in the future. ” Lei Shangwu finished and laughed again. ”But it's just my opinion. Your mother won't let me decide on such a matter.”
With a broom, Yang Mu nodded and said.
”Well, let's see what my mother thinks. She said I'll read wherever I go.”
Lei Shangwu also nodded, but the expression on his face was with a trace of loneliness.
Putting down the scissors in his hand, Lei Shangwu held the railing with one hand and the small branches with the other. He looked at the sun which was about to set in the distance, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Seeing that Uncle Lei didn't speak, Yang Mu put the garbage at the gate of the hospital and bent down to clean up the tools on the ground.
”You said, if you were to go to the military academy, would your mother agree?”
Lei Shangwu, who was silent for a while, suddenly jumped out of his mouth such a sentence.
Yang Mu, who is bending down to clean up his tools, is stunned for a moment.
