Wildfire

Tao Xiaodong's eyesight was very stable during the year, and it remained at the same stage without further development.

When the light is dark, you can’t see things clearly. Although you are careful, you will inevitably bump into them. Later, Tang Suoyan wrapped the hard objects with edges and corners in the house with sponge edges.

After getting used to it, it doesn't actually have any impact on your life. It's just that you need to pay more attention to using your eyes and supplement the nutrients in your eyes every day. There is an authoritative expert at home, and I listen to others in everything I do. After a long time, I don’t think it’s a problem, and I don’t think about it too much.

Tao Huainan and Chi Cheng graduated from high school, and Tao Xiaodong has only one younger brother left. Tao Huainan is still by his side, studying psychology in a key local college. He didn't go to the Special Education College. Tao Xiaodong submitted many applications for him, and approved them one by one, and finally the school admitted him.

Tang Suoyan and Tao Xiaodong lived with him, and Tao Xiaodong even left work to stay with him for a long time. Tao Huainan grew up rapidly, and he could go out for a walk without being held by others. He picked up the blind cane that he hated most in the past.

Tao Huainan didn't like to talk for a few months, and most of the time he talked to him in silence. He would sit in a fixed position for half a day, quiet and lonely.

Then one day, he bent down, put his face on his brother's leg, and said, "Brother, I love you so much" while weeping silently.

Tao Xiaodong touched his hair and said to him: "Brother loves you too, we all love you."

On Tang Suoyan's birthday this year, Tao Xiaodong came back from the shop to pick up a set of his own tattoo equipment when he got off work.

That night, Tao Xiaodong turned on the light, straddled in front of the mirror, and left a pattern for himself under Tang Suoyan's sight.

He left a gentle eye in the flattest and most private part of the human body below his lower abdomen.

It's a small pattern.

"I originally drew this with you in mind." Tao Xiaodong said to Tang Suoyan, "At that time, you were not mine, and I dared not say that I coveted you."

Tang Suoyan watched him carve color on his body stroke by stroke.

"You have brought light to so many people, you are the eyes of many people." Tao Xiaodong took a deep breath and let it out slowly, and said with a smile, "I should have given it to you, but you are too sacred to me."

Tang Suoyan smiled, and Tao Xiaodong said again: "I will be more suitable for it than you in the future, and I may not be able to see it in the future."

Tang Suo said no.

"It doesn't matter whether it will or not, it doesn't matter." Tao Xiaodong met his eyes in the mirror and said, "I will always keep one eye for you, and I can still feel you on the day I can't see you."

Tang Suoyan came over, stood beside him, stroked his hair lightly, and said in a low voice, "I won't let you see."

"Okay." Tao Xiaodong smiled and nodded at him.

What Tang Suoyan brought to Tao Xiaodong was not only a beam of gentle light, but also many, many unspeakable things. He made Tao Xiaodong feel safe every day and happy all the time for the rest of his life.

This winter Tang Suoyan went on a business trip to a certain city in the north, and Tao Xiaodong also accompanied him.

Tang Suoyan went to work, and Tao Xiaodong took a taxi to a shop by himself.

As soon as the store door opened, a big bald boy came out with a lollipop in his mouth, without lifting his head: "Hello."

Tao Xiaodong smiled and greeted back: "Hi."

The reception girl at the door was very enthusiastic: "Good morning, have you made an appointment?"

"No appointment." Tao Xiaodong said, "Is Teacher Zhou in?"

The big bald boy was standing at the door to make a phone call, but when he heard his voice, he turned his head in surprise, blinked, and "fucked" with a smile.

"How do you talk? It's not big or small." Tao Xiaodong shamelessly called "son".

"Who is your son in my life!" The little bald head exploded at that time, and jumped on his back, "How old are you than me? You still want to be my father. If you want to be my father, you have to ask my elder brother first." Happy or not!"

"Your elder brother said long ago that he doesn't want you." Tao Xiaodong flicked his bald head and said with disgust, "It's too ugly without hair."

At the time of the tattoo exhibition, Tao Xiaodong was also bald. He might as well shave his head if he was half-length but not short. He had been bald during that time.

In the main exhibition area, two handsome bald heads gathered together, and many people joked that they were the father and son. Tao Xiaodong asked with a smile at the time, "Do I look that old?"

"You are almost forty, and it is not too much to have a son."

Tao Xiaodong nodded and said yes, the young one quit, and he was choking on his breath.

"You've wronged me for being my son?" Tao Xiaodong pushed him away and walked in, saying as he walked, "I'm not willing to have it. It's like a firecracker every day, causing death."

"Big brother!" Lu Xiaobei bald shouted behind him, "Tao Xiaodong is here!"

The owner of the tattoo shop came down from upstairs and was a little surprised to see Tao Xiaodong. He smiled and asked him, "When did you come here?"

"Yesterday, I went on a business trip with my family," Tao Xiaodong said.

"Then why don't you make a phone call?" Boss Zhou came over, and the two hugged each other with one hand and patted each other on the back.

It's been a long time since I haven't seen you, and there's nothing strange about it. Here's the relationship.

Tao Xiaodong sat down on the sofa and said, "It's not that I can't find it. I arrived too late last night, so I won't bother you."

"Where do you live?" Boss Zhou asked.

Tao Xiaodong mentioned a place, and Boss Zhou said, "It's very close to here."

"Ah, it's only a dozen yuan for a taxi, and I forgot about it, so come and report it for me." Tao Xiaodong reached into his pocket and took out a taxi ticket, and handed it to Lu Xiaobei next to him, "Fifteen, report it."

"I'm really convinced." Lu Xiaobei ignored him, took the receipt and smacked him, "You didn't bring the hotel receipt? Can I report it for you too?"

"The hotel doesn't need you, my family unit will report." Tao Xiaodong said with a smile, "Fifteen, send me WeChat."

Boss Zhou looked at them and smiled, Lu Xiaobei gave Tao Xiaodong a look and said he was shameless.

This time Tao Xiaodong didn't come in vain, he happened to chat with old friends about cooperation.

Zhou Zui has been hiding in his own territory all these years without showing his face, charging low prices and never increasing them. In Tao Xiaodong's view, this is belittling himself and not taking his plans seriously.

Tao Xiaodong, who is full of arrogance, can't understand this the most. Since he is the most powerful, he has to charge the highest price, and I am worth that much.

Halfway through the meal, Tang Suoyan finally finished his work.

Tao Xiaodong felt that he was about to arrive, so he stood up and said, "I'll go downstairs."

Tang Suoyan got out of the car and saw Tao Xiaodong waiting for him at the door, he came over and asked, "You told me the box number, what are you doing?"

Tao Xiaodong said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to find me."

"Are you so hard to find?" Tang Suoyan patted him on the back with a smile, "Have you been drinking?"

"Have a drink."

The two went upstairs together, and there was another person in the box besides them. It was too eye-catching at first glance, so Tao Xiaodong couldn't help but take a second look.

Lu Xiaobei introduced: "Xiao Ke, I am Brother Xiao." Then he turned his head and introduced to the other party: "Brother Xiao, this is Tao Xiaodong. The time I went to Shanghai was his exhibition. The one next to him..."

He didn't know the person next to him either.

Tao Xiaodong finished his conversation, and said with a smile: "Tang Suoyan, I... a family member."

Two tattoo artists, one family member is a university teacher and the other is a doctor. The education level is higher than the other, and they are dignified.

Lu Xiaobei said in his heart that my Dou'er hasn't grown up yet, who doesn't, what's the point of showing off.

The two Gaozhi family members didn't drink alcohol, and the people around them blocked them, and they asked in a low voice if they were hungry, and would they like to order something more?

Lu Xiaobei looked here and there, rolled his eyes, felt unhappy, took out his phone and leaned on the back of the chair with his hair bowed to send a message.

- What are you doing?

The other person replied immediately: Brother, I am reviewing, the exam is the day after tomorrow!

Lin Xiaodou: The last one! It's a holiday after the exam! I will be able to find you!

Lu Xiaobei: Yo, so happy?

Lin Xiaodou: Yes, I miss you! Brother, wait for me!

Lu Xiaobei lowered his hair and sent a few text messages. Satisfied, he put down his phone and listened to their conversation after seeing the news of the lively little boy laughing and joking.

They are all tattooed, who doesn't have a family member with a high IQ?

This year's New Year's Eve, Tao Xiaodong took Tao Huainan to spend with Tang Suoyan's parents as usual.

Tao Xiaodong has to be called "Mom and Dad" now, Tang Suo gave in.

In the middle, I took a taxi to the hospital to deliver dumplings. Tang Suoyan saw him and said to him: "I told you not to come, and knock on it if the lights are not turned on."

"I took a taxi, it's fine." Tao Xiaodong put down the thermos box for him, grinning, "It's Chinese New Year, I have to eat all the dumplings at home."

"Is it cold?" Tang Suoyan saw that he was wearing short sleeves under his down jacket, and asked, "Is it okay to take a taxi?"

"It's okay, I called the car." Tao Xiaodong stood with him for a few minutes, Tang Suoyan said that time was tight, Tao Xiaodong said a few words and was about to leave.

Tang Suoyan stopped him, turned around and went back to the duty room.

When he came out again, he stuffed a small red envelope in his pocket, the size of a square palm.

"What?" Tao Xiaodong asked.

Tang Suoyan said: "Others have the lucky money, and I, Xiaodong, have to have it too."

Tao Xiaodong smiled happily, looking like a young man.

"I guessed you would come," Tang Suoyan also smiled, and said in a low voice, "You haven't heard from me recently."

"This is wronging me." Tao Xiaodong blinked, reached into his pocket and touched the little red envelope, "I haven't listened to it any day except today."

"It's enough if you don't listen to it today. What day do you want to be?" Tang Suoyan got closer to him and whispered something in his ear, "Happy New Year, wait for me at home."

Tao Xiaodong nodded, rubbing the little red envelope in his hand: "Happy New Year Brother Yan, then I'm leaving?"

Tang Suo said: "Let's go, pick the street lamp and walk, don't take the dark road."

"I know, don't worry." Tao Xiaodong waved his hand and ran away with a smile.

Tao Xiaodong, the little red envelope Tang Suoyan gave him, kept it in his pocket and warmed it with his hands. It wasn't until I got into the car that I turned on the dome light and took it out to look at it.

Inside was a small folded card with a clean, unadorned ring in the center.

On the card were two lines written by Tang Suoyan, which Tao Xiaodong could recognize at a glance.

— In the new year, Xiaodong wants to be safe.

—Still by my side.

The author has something to say: That’s it. In fact, I’m writing today’s chapter as a side story. According to my habit, the first two chapters should be finished. I’m afraid that you will think it’s too fast to finish two chapters.

The process of writing an article for you to read is like walking a certain distance together, seeing the scenery together, and talking about a story together, it is very romantic and very lucky. This article is written very lightly. I like my two brothers very much from my heart. I hope that they in the story and us outside the story will be happy.

The next article is about bitter brother Xiaonan, in the column "Old Dog".

Thank you all the way, see you next time.
