Dolls

The sun was setting, the wind was blowing, and Xu An shivered in the cool breeze. The maid beside him quickly carried him into the room, closed the doors and windows, and touched his little hands and feet hidden in his sleeves. Only when she was sure that they were warm did she feel relieved.

Xu An was touched by the maids, and there was no ripple in his heart. When he was touched like this for the first time, he was not used to it, so he kept shrinking his hands and feet, and swayed left and right to hide. The maid in the house was so scared that she thought she was sick. She even went to his mother and asked for a doctor, but it was a hassle. In the end, she found that he was fine. After his mother let go of her worries, she beat her little butt to vent her anger. From that time on, Xu An let these maids touch him however they wanted.

Xu An had been lying on the small bed outside all day. He felt that his bones were about to be tanned and crisped. His whole body was very relaxed, and his feet were happily lifting up and down.

"Dong, dongdong, dongdong."

The sound of drums suddenly came from the doorway, interrupting Xu An's wandering. He turned his head to look at the source of the sound, but was blocked by the closed door. Just when he wanted to speak to attract the attention of the maid, the door was pushed open.

The person who came was wearing a bamboo green robe, with silver thread embroidered with flowing cloud patterns on the cuffs and collars. There was only a mutton-fat jade ring hanging around his waist. His black hair was tied up high with only a silver belt. When he walked, his long hair was tightly entangled with the silver ribbon behind him.

Xu An looked at the person who came, and before he made a sound, the maid in the room had been sent out by him.

Xu An stared at Brother Xu blankly, still a little dazed. He thought that what he said in the morning was just something his brother said casually, and he didn't take it seriously. After all, everyone in the family was very tired these days, so it was better to rest early. He didn't expect that his brother would really come to see him.

Brother Xu saw his younger brother lying on the couch, with a dazed look on his face, staring at him without saying a word, and walked closer with a bad intention, gently pinching the tip of his nose.

"Um, um, ah." Xu An was pinched back to his senses, shook his head to shake off his brother's hand, wrinkled his nose at him again, and shouted at him.

Seeing that the younger brother was making a fuss, Brother Xu handed the little thing hidden behind him to him and coaxed him: "Look at the little thing that I brought you. Do you like it? I have been choosing in front of the stall for a long time, and my legs are numb from standing."

Xu An opened his eyes and looked for a while, thinking that the elder brother was talking nonsense. It was just a small rattle, and he still needed to choose. Isn't it just taking it and leaving?

But because the elder brother went out to do things, he was still worried about the younger brother who couldn't speak and was still drinking milk at home. With this deep friendship, Xu An still gave the elder brother enough face, waving his chubby little hands, trying to take the small drum in his hand.

"Brother will play it for you, just like this." Brother Xu was very excited when he saw the younger brother waving his hands so vigorously, and immediately turned the splashing drum in front of the younger brother.

Seeing his younger brother waving his hands around, Big Brother Xu was very pleased. After all, when his younger brother was young, he ignored him. No matter what he said, he would just lie on the couch and chew his fingers, not giving him any face. He was not cute and obedient like his younger brother.
