Bao Ye

Under the delicate situation of turbulent undercurrents, the Chinese New Year is here.

Red lanterns were hung everywhere in the courtyard of Wen's house. The boy stood in front of the door and set off firecrackers. Chi Yunfei covered Yang Yang's ears and stood on the stone steps to watch. Yang Yang giggled happily and jumped up and down dancing.Commander Wen invited Chi Yunfei's parents over, and the family reunited and had a lively meal at Wen's residence.

The Chi family had also heard about what happened before, and Mrs. Chi grabbed the youngest son by the ear and pulled him aside when she found a gap, and scolded: "Your father suffered from insomnia all night long ago! I'm afraid you will be returned by the Wen family It’s gone! Our family can’t afford to lose this man! Go and see your father! Huh? His hair is almost gone! Please do me a favor, have pity on me and your father?”

Chi Yunfei didn't dare to utter a word even though his ears were being pulled. He aimed his big eyes upwards, and said pitifully, "I was wrong, mother, I really knew I was wrong."

"How many times have you said this sentence? You just know you made a mistake! Come back next time!" Mrs. Chi hated iron and steel, and said, "Your father is right, I spoiled you, if you If you don’t restrain yourself, sooner or later you will have a big disaster!”

This side was preaching, and the other end Yang Yang came over holding a spoon, with oil stains on his mouth, seeing his Brother Chi being scolded by his ears, he hurriedly ran over and hugged Chi Yunfei's calf, and looked up at Mrs. Chi : "Don't hit! Don't hit!"

Mrs. Chi let go of her hand, smiled and wanted to touch Yang Yang's little face: "Oh, we Yang Yang know how to hurt people..."

Wen Nianyang hurriedly dodged, poked his hairy head out from behind Chi Yunfei's legs, looked at her and said, "You are bad!"

Mrs. Chi couldn't laugh or cry, when the relatives of the Wen family not far away called her over, she gave her youngest son a look and said, "I'll deal with you later!"

After finishing speaking, she turned around and left, smoothed her temple hair, and showed off the gold-encrusted peony hairpin that Papa Chi had bought for her.

Chi Yunfei rubbed his ears: "..."

Seeing that the bad guy left, Yang Yang carefully pulled Chi Yunfei's trouser legs, and beckoned him to squat down.

"Let me see!" Yang Yang shouted childishly.

Chi Yunfei then squatted down and turned his head to show him, his eyes passed over the top of Yangyang's head, and fell on Wen Xinyang who was drinking with his elders not far away.

Wen Xinyang was wearing a gray suit and tie today. The suit was specially tailored, and it was very slim. On the back of his hand, a belt with faint lines was exposed, and traces of a gun could be vaguely seen on the back of his waist - even if it was a Chinese New Year reunion with his family, General Wen did not let down his vigilance at all.

As if aware that someone was looking at him, Wen Xinyang turned his head while drinking, the two met their eyes, and Chi Yunfei smiled and blew him a kiss.Yang Yang was blowing into Chi Yunfei's ear, comforting him softly: "TuTu is flying away, TongTu is flying away."

"Thank you Yangyang! It really doesn't hurt anymore!" Chi Yunfei hugged the child with a smile, his lips were heavily printed on Yangyang's forehead, and he felt that the child was very caring.

"Why did she hit you?" Yang Yang touched Chi Yunfei's ear and asked.

"She is Brother Chi's mother." Chi Yunfei said, "Brother Chi has made her unhappy, so of course she has to discipline Brother Chi. Just like your father would discipline you occasionally."

"Father won't hit me." Yang Yang turned his head and saw Wen Xinyang approaching, smiled and stretched out his hand to hug, "Father!"

"Good boy." Wen Xinyang put down his wine glass, picked up the child, and frowned at Chi Yunfei, "Why are your ears red?"

"It's nothing." Chi Yunfei looked at Wen Xinyang, as if he couldn't get tired of looking at him, and kept looking him up and down, "Today's body looks really good."

Wen Xinyang lowered his head and looked at Chi Yunfei, smelling of alcohol, his cheekbones and forehead were slightly red: "You look good too."

Chi Yunfei was wearing a long purple gown today, with dark lines sewn with silver thread, and a white fox fur scarf on his collar. The white fur made his face very lively and beautiful, and his cat-like eyes greeted him. When exposed to the sun, it brings out a faint amber color, as if there is light flowing inside.His clothes were designed by Mrs. Wen herself. The cuffs and hem are very unique. Sitting there still, he looks like a precious jade doll, with black hair and white skin, red lips and black eyes. Eye.

Chi Yunfei was very happy to be praised, and he held the general's hand to toast. Many tables were set up in the yard - not only relatives of the Wen family, the Chi family, but even the concubines of the Wen family who rarely showed up came out, Sit alone at a side table.

At night, before everyone had their fill of fun, Commander Wen had disappeared, the lights in the study were on, and several uncles of the Wen family followed Commander Wen to the study, probably because they had something to discuss.

Chi Yunfei asked, "Aren't you going?"

"What does it look like when you're gone?" Wen Xinyang said, "I still have to take care of my father-in-law, otherwise it's not proper."

Wen Xinyang staggered a little after toasting with Chi's family.

He drank too much today, no matter how good he was, he felt a little dizzy at this time, so he went to the side to smoke to sober up.

While talking with his relatives, Chi Yunfei peeked at the people under the tree in the corner. He seldom saw Wen Xinyang drunk, and the other party was also very sober on the day of his marriage. He tried to trick the other party into bed but failed.

Now that Wen Xinyang is drunk, his demeanor is finally not so rigid, revealing a rare casualness.His smoking gesture is very handsome, leaning his back on the tree stump, raising his head slightly, staring at a certain point in a daze, his deep eyebrows and eyes appear very unpredictable under the junction of light and dark, full of mature charm.

Chi Yunfei himself was a little dizzy from drinking, while Yang Yang went to bed early with other relatives' children, holding a lot of red envelopes in his hand, even Chi Yunfei and Wen Xinyang also received a lot of red envelopes from their elders .

During the banquet, the voice of conversation gradually became low. The female relatives of each family gathered together, and the men smoked and talked in another place, and no one was sitting on the seats.Throughout the year, everyone was a little bit emotional, and knew that the current situation in Yuecheng was delicate, and they were thinking about how to go forward.

"No matter what, my Chi family keeps its promise." Master Chi also fainted from drinking, patted Chi Yunfei on the shoulder and said, "The Chi family and the Wen family are like grasshoppers on the same boat. Both will prosper and both will lose. Do anything There are risks in everything... hiccup... when the risks come, you have to bear them and solve them like a man!"

"Yunfei." Master Chi said earnestly, "You have to learn to grow up and learn to take care of things. One day, I, your mother, and your eldest brother will not be able to protect you. Do you understand?"

Chi Yunfei turned the wine glass in his hand and nodded.

"You little bastard." Master Chi shook his head, "You know what! If you understood, why would I worry so much? In this journey of life, not everything goes smoothly, Feng Shui turns, you are very good today, in case If you are sought after by others, tomorrow you will have to pay the price, fall to pieces and be cast aside by thousands of people. Whenever, remember, learn a craft, be able to support yourself, safety and health are more important than anything else.”

"Troubled times..." Master Chi held his forehead with one hand, as if he was talking to himself, and seemed to be teaching Chi Yunfei, "Life in troubled times has no definite number. It is too difficult to survive. To survive and live very well Well, it's even more difficult. It's not easy for the Wen family to come to this point, and for the Chi family to come to this step. That's how many detours and how much the predecessors took, and how much they paid, to get to where they are today? Do you think? Have you ever been? Cherish the present moment, don’t take it seriously, be smart, learn to bow your head and compromise... Honest words are harmful to the ear and good for deeds..."

Mrs. Chi came over, supported her husband with a sigh, looked at Chi Yunfei and said, "Your father has been under a lot of stress these days, and he's not in a good mood. He drank more. You, don't make him worry anymore."

Chi Yunfei couldn't tell what was going on in his heart for a while, so he reached out to help his father and sent them out of Wenfu.

"Go back." Mrs. Chi said, "Don't worry about family affairs. With us, you just take care of yourself. You have to remember what your father told you, huh?"

"Yes."

"Next year will be difficult." Mrs. Chi was worried, but there was nothing she could do.Everyone is trapped in the torrent of history, and they don’t know where the way forward is.

"Okay. Take care of yourself."

At this moment, Chi Yunfei felt uncomfortable in every possible way.

It seemed that just for a moment, everyone became worried and anxious, and he was driven behind by everyone, telling him to grow up quickly and be sensible.He is no longer the young master who can hide behind his mother's back and make faces, get angry with his father and housekeeper, skip class and get beaten by the old gentleman, and beat people with Baihuang sack together with Xiaotang.

He had to teach Yang Yang well, he had to help Wen Xinyang take care of his family, he had to learn to read people's faces, learn to judge the situation, and learn to compromise.

He had never felt so clearly that an unknown crisis was approaching like this moment, and no one could guarantee him anything. Fate gradually revealed its original cruel appearance.He must learn to protect himself and protect his children.

The streets are deserted and deserted, only occasional laughter from other yards can be heard.

The red lantern illuminated the road down the steps, Mr. Chi fell asleep in the back seat of the car, his face not concealing his gauntness, Mrs. Chi babbled a lot of words to ask Chi Yunfei to take care of him, with reluctance in his eyes.

In the end, she endured and endured, and finally said: "Your father won't let me tell you, your brother... Yunmao is having a hard time in the city closure, the situation in the three provinces is unstable, someone has a twisted mind, and wants to join President Lavin Get off the horse. The Chi family and the Wen family are of one heart, and with the Wen family around, your brother's future is bright, but now someone has found fault with him..."

"What happened to my brother?" Chi Yunfei frowned, "When did it happen?"

"Before you got married." Mrs. Chi sighed, "otherwise, your marriage is such a big deal, why didn't your brother come back? It's also a mess over there now, and everyone has their own thoughts. You think the road is paved and you can leave Is it? Who knows what will come out halfway and blow up the road for you?"

Chi Yunfei didn't speak for a long time, his mood fluctuated, and his eyes showed cruelty: "Who dares to bully my brother? Mother, tell me."

"I'm telling you this, just to let you know that nothing is taken for granted." Mrs. Chi patted his hand, "The second room in Xinyang... The Lin family is also closed, and it's not a fuel-efficient lamp. Today's people There are too many, I can't say more, you find a chance to remind Xinyang, you know?"

"Got it. But my brother..."

"Your father will find an opportunity to transfer him back after the next year. Let's talk about it at that time." Mrs. Chi said, "Your father wants you to grow up quickly, but he is unwilling to tell you these things to make you worry. I think about it Go, we are a family, there is nothing to hide, it is better to let you know."

"Understood, mother." Chi Yunfei took her hand, "You must tell me if there is anything, I want to help too."

"So good." Mrs. Chi coaxed him habitually, laughed, hugged her little son and patted his head, "Mother, if it's not necessary, why would I let you grow up. If you don't grow up, you should How nice."

Chi Yunfei's eyes were sore, and he hugged his mother back hard.

After the banquet was over, Wen Xinyang came to him. His spirit of alcohol had not faded, and there was a little bloodthirsty red mark in his eyes. When he saw Chi Yunfei, he frowned and said, "Where did you go? It's easy to find."

"Send it to my parents..."

Wen Xinyang came back to his senses: "Why didn't you call me? Have they left?"

"Let's go." Chi Yunfei pulled him, not very interested, "It's okay, my mother also wants to talk to me alone, it's just right that you're not here."

Wen Xinyang glanced at him: "On weekdays, you can go back to your mother's house to have a look, I won't hold you back."

"Yeah." Chi Yunfei was absent-minded, and went to see Yang Yang with Wen Xinyang again. Seeing that Yang Yang was sleeping soundly, Chi Yunfei lightly pressed a copper coin under his pillow, and went back to the bedroom in peace.

After fetching water to take a bath, Wen Xinyang soaked in the bathtub for a while, but the alcohol became stronger.

He closed his eyes and did not speak, while Chi Yunfei sat behind and wiped his back, chatting without saying a word, telling interesting stories about Yang Yang, and saying that he heard gossip at the banquet today.

"That cousin of yours is quite powerful." Chi Yunfei said, "She's still not married at 28, and she spends all day wielding knives and guns, isn't her parents in a hurry?"

"She likes women." Wen Xinyang smelt of alcohol, and his words were a little vague, "Just like you and me."

"..." Chi Yunfei patted the general's generous shoulder, "Fart, you can be a woman too."

"Oh." Wen Xinyang nodded, looking very docile.

Chi Yunfei seemed to have discovered the New World, and walked around to look at him: "General? Brother Shen?"

Wen Xinyang opened his eyes, his hair was wet on his forehead, water droplets slid down his face along the rigid outline, his eyes were confused, like a large wet dog, his black eyes looked at Chi Yun in a trance No.

"Drunk? Who am I?"

"...Chi Yunfei." Wen Xinyang closed his eyes again, "Not drunk."

Chi Yunfei didn't believe it: "What did I just say?"

Wen Xinyang didn't say anything.

Chi Yunfei simply took off his clothes and entered the water, wiped his face with water, and wiped his hair back, revealing his full and smooth forehead.His big eyes were a little drunk, but he was more excited. He leaned against the general's chest and said, "Brother Shen, can I wash it with you?"

Wen Xinyang ignored him.

"Who am I? Tell me."

Wen Xinyang was a little annoyed, opened his eyes, stretched out his hand to wrap the person in his arms, and rested his chin on Chi Yunfei's head: "Stop making trouble, I'm sleepy."

"Then you sleep for a while." Chi Yunfei licked his lower lips, touched Wen Xinyang's face with one hand, leaned over and kissed the corner of his lips that smelled of alcohol, "I'll wash it for you then."

Wen Xinyang hummed, then stopped talking.

Chi Yunfei stared at him for a long time, leaned over and put his hands on the general's shoulders, Wen Xinyang subconsciously hugged him, and the two kissed like lovers, with their skins touching each other, in the hot water Bring out the comfort that makes people want to sigh.

Wen Xinyang didn't respond, and Chi Yunfei didn't care either.He kissed the person in front of him one-sidedly, the tip of his tongue traced the hot lips, and squeezed the gap little by little. Wen Xinyang finally opened his mouth, hesitated for a while, as if to distinguish who the person in front of him was, then raised his hand and pressed it. Touching the back of his neck, the two kissed deeply.

For a moment, there was only the sound of kisses in the room.
