Xu Tongdao took advantage of the time to boil the bath water, and answered a lot of questions about his mother, younger brother, and younger sister.

　　 He jumped into the river to save people tonight. Although he has changed his clothes, the river water is muddy and he feels uncomfortable. So he went to the kitchen to boil water and prepare to take a bath as soon as he got home.

　　 Xu Tonglin was frightened by a snake and fell into the river. When he said it from the entrance of Xu Tongdao, Ge Xiaozhu, Xu Tonglu, and Ge Yuzhu were all taken aback.

　　 Especially when he heard that no one dared to go into the water to save people at the time, but Xu Tongdao jumped into the river to rescue Xu Tonglin, Ge Xiaozhu's face turned pale.

　　 Even though Xu Tongdao was right in front of her at this time, she still couldn't help but worry, and kept asking what happened later...

　　 Xu Tongdao didn't intend to scare them, so naturally he said the result lightly.

　　 "Mom, has your fever gone?"

　　 Xu Tongdao remembered this and asked quickly.

　　 Ge Xiaozhu smiled relieved, "I'm much better, don't worry!"

　　 Xu Tongdao felt uneasy, got up and touched his mother's forehead, and then touched his forehead. His brows wrinkled slightly, and his mother's fever had not subsided.

　　 "Did you take the medicine tonight?"

　　 "Well, eat it! It will be fine tomorrow, you don't have to worry about me! By the way, mom should go to the 圩圩 tomorrow? Mom dare not let you go."

"No! Mom! Go to sleep! Yuzhu! Give you a task. Tonight you will accompany your mother to sleep together. At night, remember to touch her forehead. If you find that her temperature is too high, you remember to notify me as soon as possible. With your brother! Do you remember?"

　　 In the following sentence, Xu Tongdao ordered his sister Ge Yuzhu.

　　 Ge Yuzhu is very clever and nodded quickly.

　　 Ge Xiaozhu frowned, "No need! I took the medicine, and the fever should be able to go down tonight. Let's just say that! I will go to Shangxu tomorrow, and you will be at home with your brother and sister."

Xu Tongdao shook his head, "Mom! Don't fight with me, don't say that you may not be able to retreat from the fever tonight. Even if you can retreat, you will definitely have no strength tomorrow, so I will leave the matter of going to the fair. Right! I’m not the same as Xiaolinzi. I’m not as timid as him, and I’m not as good at paddling like him. Well, that’s it! Yuzhu, please help mom to rest, I’ll take a shower and sleep later. Up."

　　 "Hey, okay, big brother!" Ge Yuzhu hurriedly supported her mother's arm and whispered her mother to go back to the room to rest.

　　 Ge Xiaozhu still wanted to argue, Xu Tongdao just shook his head.

　　...

　　 When mother and sister left, only two brothers Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglu were left in the kitchen.

　　 Xu Tongdao sits at the mouth of the stove with his head bowed and burns the fire. Xu Tonglu sits on the water tank cover, with his feet hanging in the air and frowning, looking at Xu Tongdao in silence.

　　Xu Tongdao raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said lightly: "You are not going to bed, what are you doing here? Go to bed!"

　　 Xu Tonglu was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said: "Mom said you plan to go to work to earn money..."

　　 paused, and added: "What if you are admitted to high school? You don't plan to study anymore?"

　　 Xu Tongdao lowered his head, took a stick of firewood and put it into the stove, and hummed lightly.

Xu Tonglu frowned even more, suddenly jumped from the water tank, raised his voice, and said, "No! I don't agree! If you didn't pass the high school entrance examination, it's fine, but if you pass the entrance examination, then I will go to work. To make money, I will provide for you!"

　　 Hearing what he said, Xu Tongdao was not excited.

The expression calmly raised his eyes to Xu Tonglu, his tone was still very flat, "I didn't discuss with you, and if you disagree, neither can change my decision, and...I am your brother! It is your turn to make money! Unless I'm incompetent, and the money I earn won't support you, I won't have any opinion on what you decide at that time!"

　　 "No! What elder brother are you playing with me? You are one year older than me! I don't need you to earn money to support my studies, and I don't want to read it anymore!"

　　 Xu Tonglu categorically objected, looking excited.

Xu Tongdao squinted his eyes and stared at him for a while, slowly got up, walked over, and walked to the road of Xu Tong, with sharp eyes, staring at Xu Tonglu's eyes at close range, and whispered: "I said, I didn't discuss it with you. ! Xu Tonglu! I warn you, if your next grade falls sharply, I will interrupt your leg! I am the boss! It is my responsibility to make money, and your responsibility... is to study hard! If you fail to pass the exam next year High school, I broke your leg like me!"

　　 Xu Tongdao with such sharp eyes, Xu Tonglu had obviously never seen him.

Therefore, under Xu Tongdao’s fierce eyes at this time, Xu Tonglu couldn’t help taking a half step back, but the jealousy in his bones made him feel ashamed, so his face quickly became flushed and he stalked his neck and shouted. "You come here! Why do you care about me? You are not my dad! Besides...you may not be able to beat me..."

　　 He was very angry, and his voice was not small.

　　 But he didn't understand the temper of Xu Tongdao who was born again. Before he could say anything, he saw Xu Tongdao suddenly stretch out his right hand, his five fingers pinched Xu Tonglu's neck fiercely, his eyes staring fiercely.

　　 Xu Tonglu hurriedly broke Xu Tongdao's hand with both hands, but he hadn't broken it here yet, and Xu Tongdao's left hand was also used, his hands were tightly pinched Xu Tonglu's neck, no matter how hard Xu Tonglu struggled, he couldn't break it.

　　 yelled intermittently and hardly: "You, you let go! Tongdao Xu! I let you let go! Don't force me!"

　　 The more he shouted, the tighter Xu Tongdao pinched.

"What happened?"

　　 "Big Brother? What happened?"

　　 There were footsteps in the hall, as well as the suspicious questioning of the mother and sister.

　　 In the kitchen, Xu Tongdao pushed his brother Xu Tonglu away, pushing Xu Tonglu's legs against the water tank behind him and almost fell.

　　 "Don't think I'm joking with you! Xu Tonglu! You will remember it, and I will have the final say in this family! I will let you study well, and you will study well for me! If you are not obedient, I will smoke you!"

　　 After screaming at Xu Tonglu in a low voice, Xu Tongdao turned his head and shouted to the hall, "Mom! It's okay! Go to sleep! It's okay!"

　　 Mother Ge Xiaozhu and younger sister Ge Yuzhu were still worried, they went to the back door of the hall and looked into the kitchen.

　　 Xu Tongdao, who had just cleaned up his brother, gave them a smile.

　　 Xu Tonglu, who had just been cleaned up, had a stern face and tilted his head without saying a word because of his good face.

　　Mother and sister saw that their brothers were doing well. Although they were still suspicious, they did not come to the kitchen.

　　 "Then you guys go to bed early too! Our family is already difficult enough, you two brothers don't have any more conflicts and save mom snacks, okay?"

　　 Mother Ge Xiaozhu couldn't help but tell them.

　　 "Don't worry! Mom!"

　　 Xu Tongdao responded with a smile.

　　 Xu Tonglu glanced at him coldly, curled his lips, still silent.

　　 Mother and sister went back to sleep.

　　 Xu Tonglu looked at Xu Tongdao angrily and fearfully, gritted his teeth, and turned and strode away.

　　 So, Xu Tongdao was the only one left in the kitchen.

　　 He actually didn't want to do something to his brother like he did just now, really didn't want to.

　　 But he knew very well how rebellious his brother was, especially after his father disappeared.

　　Xu Tongdao is not confident that he can control this unconscious brother just by speaking out of his own mouth, and he will go to the county to find a job to earn money in a few days at most, and he will definitely not have time to look at Xu Tonglu every day.

　　 So, seeing Xu Tonglu's rebellious look just now, he couldn't help but do it.

　　 At that time, he thought: Since it doesn't make sense, let's do it! It's better for this kid to be afraid of me in the future, than he is afraid of no one, and continues to be lawless.
