Schrödinger's straight man

Qin Shaoyou didn't speak. He understood how depressed people of Yao Ruolin's class would be in this situation in the future, so he couldn't stand and talk without back pain—if both of them were like himself, born in Ordinary petty bourgeois families, with stable careers and independent finances, are determined to be uncompromising emotionally.As a parent, you will always try your best to tolerate the mistakes made by your children. If you don’t soften your heart today, there will be tomorrow. They will be smothered; when they are old, their parents are also old, and they have no energy to toss about, and everything will be settled.

It's a pity that Yao Ruolin's identity and Yao Ruolin's family are destined to bear not only family affection, but also many immeasurable benefits.These extra things are like invisible shackles, restraining him and preventing him from doing whatever he wants.

It also doesn't have enough ability to break the shackles.

Yao Ruolin looked at him, with a bit of nostalgia in his eyes, as if Qin Shaoyou's imprint on his heart would fade if he missed watching for a second: "You don't have to worry too much, my parents are not unreasonable people, use a little trick Dealing with them might create a turning point."

He said: "My cousin graduated from a university in China. She was going to enter the company to learn experience so that she could succeed my uncle. But when she was on a graduation trip, she met a wandering street artist abroad, so what did she say? He also refused to go back to China, so he insisted on staying to study, majoring in art management, and working as a manager for that street artist, helping him to rise to the top."

While listening, Qin Shaoyou stirred the turbid noodle soup with chopsticks. It cooled down, and a layer of grease formed on the bowl. It would not be easy to wash it: "Poor study theory, rich study literature, nobles study art. Abroad People who can paint, I’m afraid they are not from bad backgrounds, right? Young artists, it sounds like they have a bright future.”

"It is said that his background is not bad, and he can even be called famous. However, his family is in decline, and he is also a person who loves to paint. He can't do anything except painting, and he doesn't know anything. He almost starved to death on the street. After my cousin picked it up, it was a long-lost warm winter. She was a rich girl who didn’t touch the sun, and she learned how to cook and how to take care of others when she was sick... earning money with her own hands. Barely enough money to live on."

Yao Ruolin's last sentence was embarrassing, obviously his uncle cut off the financial relationship with his only daughter.A girl who is used to spending money lavishly, once turned from extravagance to frugality, and then dragged behind her a boyfriend who could only get in and out, the hardships at that time can be imagined.

Qin Shaoyou said with a sneer: "Didn't she return to China this year? Your uncle finally compromised?"

Yao Ruolin nodded: "My cousin sounds miserable, right? She doesn't contact her parents, she only dares to contact my parents or my uncle. She doesn't reveal too many details, and she just says that life is very hard now. , worrying that her boyfriend’s paintings would not be sold. My dad asked me to buy a pair anonymously, so it could be regarded as giving her some hope, and I happened to visit her by the way.”

"As a result, when I went to the local area, my cousin spent all her private money to hold an art exhibition for her boyfriend. After a long time of operation, the down-and-out nobleman has become a well-known local painter. She complained to her family about the hardships, It was just to soften my uncle's heart. This is my uncle's Achilles' heel. When my uncle couldn't take it anymore, he put down his old face and went to find her, but unexpectedly found that her choice back then was completely right, and naturally she would no longer treat the poor man from a foreign country. The boy turned him away."

"Hit a snake and hit seven inches." Qin Shaoyou used an inappropriate metaphor, and then looked up at him, a little hesitant: "But I don't have any skills or talents, enough to make your parents get rid of prejudice. I... I Should I learn something new?"

Yao Ruolin smiled lightly, and put away the bowls and chopsticks: "Your starting point is much higher than that of a poor homeless man, and this is fine now. My parents have never had high demands on my other half. The blind dates I am looking for are all average in all aspects, but they are virtuous, gentle, understanding, and especially soft-tempered. My mother said that such a woman does not like to show off, so she is willing to be diligent and thrifty behind a man's back. Do you know what I mean? ?”

Qin Shaoyou seemed to understand part of it, took the bowls and chopsticks in his hand and put them into the sink, rolled up his sleeves and buried himself in cleaning.He is an engineer, thoughtful and durable, although his mouth is occasionally mean, his temper is not too bad.Years of confrontation with Party A at the wine table has cultivated the ability to observe people's words, talk about people, and talk nonsense when they see people. It is the easiest thing to please a certain person.

When I went to work the next day, the company was calm. Vice President Liao didn't dare to divulge any news about what happened last night.As New Year's Day is approaching, everyone's focus is on preparing clothes for travel, new cameras, shopping lists and other trivial matters, and work seems to be lazy.

Yutou helped Qin Shaoyou temporarily collect the local indigenous language of Saipan, and made a transliteration booklet full of love stories. Hearing that their company offers half-price benefits for family members, he withdrew the booklet and threatened and lured him: "I invite you for three days on New Year's Day." Sick leave, you take me with you. Writing codes in front of the computer all day, I'm almost suffocated!"

Qin Shaoyou glanced at him: "This family refers to my wife and children. How can I report to the personnel? Report you as my wife, and Yao Ruolin will be jealous. Could it be that you are my son?"

Yutou immediately yelled very boneless: "Dad—"

"Hey, good boy." Qin Shaoyou touched Yutou's big head symbolically. Anyway, his wife doesn't need half-price welfare, and it's a waste to occupy it. It just so happens that he still has something to ask Yutou for help, "help Dad find some more Things, Dad will pay the fee in the afternoon."

Throw to Yutou a list of the Four Treasures of the Study and rubbings of inscriptions, all of which are difficult to buy online, so you have to go to the market to find them: "I've asked, the future mother-in-law likes to practice calligraphy and copy ancient prose besides beauty shopping."

There are relatives in Yutou's family who sell antique calligraphy and paintings under the Tengwang Pavilion. He squinted his eyes knowingly, patted his chest and reassured: "Okay, wrap it on me."

When it was time to pack the luggage, Qin Shaoyou changed into an oversized suitcase, and packed two sets of underwear, beach pants, racer vest, flip flops, toiletries, and some emergency medicine.Yao Ruolin came out of the bathroom with his long bare legs. After taking a shower, he only put on a loose T-shirt. When he saw that he was stepping on the suitcase and barely zipped it up, he laughed at him: "Just go for three days and two nights. Why don't you vacate your house?"

Qin Shaoyou messed up the password and said, "Let's elope some other day. I will definitely vacate the house. Let's practice it now."

Yao Ruolin said angrily, "I'm not going to elope with you. What you pack here are other people's things." He is used to traveling lightly when traveling, and buys what is needed. He always only has a trolley bag and a dozen cards.

Qin Shaoyou sighed helplessly: "Who asked you to live in a single room alone, I can only hug Yutou to keep warm."

Silently praying that it would be best if the water pipe in Yao Ruolin's private room suddenly exploded. When the Chinese people have a small holiday, it is the peak tourist season around the world. Let's see where the hotel can make room for him.

Yao Ruolin sat on the bed with legs crossed, while wiping the water off his hair, he looked at him defensively: "Your expression makes my hair stand on end. You won't curse me behind your back for an accident in the private room, will you?"

Qin Shaoyou thumped suddenly, thinking we have such a good understanding?Yakou quibbled: "No, no... I just suddenly remembered that your parents haven't troubled me for so many days. It's too like the calm before the storm. It makes me feel..."

"Huh?" Yao Ruolin's big eyes were full of doubts, staring at him blankly, with sparkling eyes, reflecting Qin Shaoyou's face.

He licked his lips, his Adam's apple slid up and down, and rushed towards him like a very hungry wolf: "...I have the urge to swallow you into my stomach quickly, and no one can peel you off."

The author has something to say:

Hotel: It is impossible for our water pipes to burst!

(So ​​the water tanks in the entire hotel exploded.)

Qin Shaoyou: ...I didn't, no, I didn't do it
