Chapter 2211 Incomprehensible Meaning
"Mom..."
The boy was still hesitant whether to tell his brother's last words now or in a few days.
He pursed his lips in confusion.
……
"Isn't it something you can't tell your mother?"
The woman smiled.
"If you can't say it, don't say it."
……
"It's not that I can't say it."
The boy explained, "Yes..."
"Hard to say?"
The woman's eyebrows arched slightly.
His face still looked a little haggard.
"Is it... about Xiaohao?"
……
The boy was stunned.
The woman smiled, "Apart from Xiaohao's matter, what else could make you so hesitant?"
The boy pursed his lips.
"Say it."
The woman sat next to her son and patted the child's hand.
"Your mother is not that fragile."
……
The boy made up his mind.
"Mom, actually..."
……
The woman took the jade ball in her son's hand and looked at it carefully.
"You said...the last thing Xiaohao said to you was...the jade ball?"
……
"Yeah."
The boy nodded.
"My brother was in a very bad state at that time. The doctors even asked him to stop talking, but he had to speak."
"I listened for a long time."
"Only I realized that my brother was talking about jade balls."
"Later..."
"I forgot."
The boy lowered his eyes in annoyance, "I was helping my brother pack things just now, and I found this jade ball, and then I remembered it."
Obviously, my brother worked so hard to say those two words to him in the end...
But he...
……
"It's not too late to think about it now."
A woman comforts her child.
She and the father could see clearly how sad the child was these past few days.
Especially this child almost watched his brother leave with his own eyes.
The blow you received can be imagined.
She and the child's father... didn't even see the last side of the child.
……
"What's so special about this jade ball?"
The woman changed the subject.
Why...the last thing Xiaohao cared about was this jade ball?
The woman didn't understand.
……
The boy shook his head, "I don't know either."
Brother, what do you mean?
He hit his head hard several times.
……
The dull sound of knocking on the head awakened the woman's distracted thoughts.
She raised her eyes, "Don't hit your head."
"We will wait until your father comes back and then ask your father."
As a boy gets older, he should be able to talk to his father better.
……
"Yeah."
The boy nodded.
He put the velvet cushion back in the drawer.
Then put the jade ball in.
To avoid accidents like the one before accidentally happening again.
……
"Mom, I'll take care of it."
Seeing the woman starting to sort out his brother's clothes, the boy hurriedly reached out.
The woman avoided the boy's hand that wanted to take the clothes, "I told you I would be fine."
"Two people can clean up faster than one, right?"
"Besides, your own room is a mess. I don't trust you to sort out your brother's things alone."
"Okay, stop talking."
"Together we will clean up quickly."
……
The boy slowly withdrew his hand.
"...Okay."
……
"...My room is quite clean."
The boy defended himself a few words.
Although he is not as diligent as his brother in cleaning up the room
When he was young, his brother would help him clean his room.
But it's not "free".
Compensation varies depending on the season. For example, a popsicle in summer, or a roasted sweet potato in winter.
For this reason, he often complained that his brother was "taking advantage of others."
……
The corners of the woman's mouth turned up slightly.
"Well, Xiaomin has grown up too."
……
The boy was silent.
yes.
When he grew up, he never asked his brother to help him clean his room.
On the one hand, because his brother lives on campus in college, he spends less time at home. On the other hand, he is too embarrassed to ask his brother to help him clean up his room.
How old are you...
The elder brother rubbed his head as a joke and said that he had lost one "income" since then.
The tone was quite regretful.
……
In the evening, the boy's father comes back.
When he looked at Yuqiu, he also had a strange look on his face.
The whole family couldn't help but stare at the jade ball in trance.
……
"Maybe we are overthinking..."
After a period of silence, the child's father spoke.
"Xiao Hao just likes this jade ball."
"No special meaning."
"Yeah."
The woman pressed her eyebrows.
"What special meaning can a jade ball have?"
The boy subconsciously wanted to refute.
Mom and dad didn't see what my brother looked like at that time...
In such a seriously injured situation, he had to hold his breath and say the word "Jade Ball".
Such performance.
If he said it had no special meaning, he wouldn't believe it.
However, he opened his mouth.
In the end nothing was said.
He remained silent.
What could he say?
Don’t trust your parents’ judgment?
But he couldn't confirm his suspicions.
My brother is gone.
The meaning of what his brother finally told him has become an eternal mystery.
The boy clenched his hands.
There was a feeling in his heart that made him feel uncomfortable and almost sick.
What my brother tried so hard to tell him.
But he couldn't understand.
He almost wanted to beat himself up.
My brother has put away all his things.
Except for the jade ball.
The boy wants his brother's jade ball.
The boy's parents thought that the younger son wanted to keep something belonging to the older son as a souvenir.
They said nothing.
Boys default to their parents’ understanding of their behavior.
He did not tell them his doubts and unwillingness.
He brought the jade ball with him, only holding on to the ten thousandth hope.
Maybe someday.
He could unravel the meaning of his brother's last words.
"Brother, if you really want me to do something...just give it to me in your dream"
"Tell me clearly."
"Sorry, I'm so stupid..."
"Since then, have you been staying in this jade ball?"
Xiao Xiao was a little emotional.
That was a really long time.
"咩咩～"
The little monster nodded.
It can't come out on its own.
It stayed in the jade ball for a long time.
"Can you hear what's going on outside in the jade ball?"
Xiao Xiao touched the jade ball that was split in half.
That's good.
Otherwise, it might be a different situation at this time.
The monster he accidentally released must be resentful.
The next development was probably that he was looking for an answer to the monster's former human friend.
"咩咩～"
The little monster nodded again.
At that time, the man let it enter the jade ball and talked to it every day.
Its voice cannot be heard.
But it can let the other party know that it heard his voice by shaking the jade ball.
However, after that day, it never heard the man's voice again.
It wonders.
But it remembered what the man told it.
He didn't hear his voice asking it to speak, so it didn't want to make any movement.
It knows that men are there to protect it.
It always remembers the man's instructions.
And it has never been violated.
