Mint-Stained Shirt

New Year's Eve is approaching, Dongye City.

The dormitory assigned to the interns has been noisy since the morning.

The annual Spring Festival holiday is the busiest time for police officers. They are on duty 24 hours a day, and it is difficult to reunite with their families on New Year's Eve.

Considering that this is the Spring Festival of the last student days of the police trainees, the captain did not put them in the duty list, and gave them a holiday after the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Mingshu lived in a two-person dormitory, and his roommate was Lu Yanzhou, a special police officer.Dongye City is a big city, and the city bureau is responsible for training the trainee police. The trainee police who are thrown over don't care what type of police they are, they will be put on a rotation first, and they must be familiar with any position.

Mingshu is a criminal police officer, but he must also train with the special police.Fortunately, he participated in closed training during the summer vacation of his freshman year, and there is an all-round parent who came from a special training echelon at home, so the training of the special police could not trouble him.

Lu Yanzhou is considered to be the best among the trainee special police officers. Mingshu has played tricks with him a few times and knows that he is a good man, but he is a little noisy.

Because he could go home soon, Lu Yanzhou didn't sleep last night, he packed his luggage all night, no different from a primary school student looking forward to a spring outing.

It made Mingshu barely sleep.

Lu Yanzhou got on the train at 10:6 in the morning and sat at the table shaking his legs at [-]:[-] in the morning.

Mingshu got out of bed to put on the mask, and received a curious look from the straight man—ten thousand tons.

"Ming team, you still put on a mask!" Lu Yanzhou exclaimed in shock.

How can a trainee policeman be a captain, but a trainee policeman also has big dreams—for example, one day he will become the captain of his own team.

Mingshu and the group of people call each other the captain, which is considered a compliment and a good fortune.

"Would you like it?" Mingshu threw a piece of paper.

As if receiving a hot potato, Lu Yanzhou quickly threw it away, "I won't post it, I won't post it!"

Mingshu was amused.

This Lu Yanzhou, in terms of his harsh aesthetics, can be called handsome, but he is not very particular, and is very rough.

He usually doesn't think much about putting on a facial mask in front of Brother Chou, but today Xiao Yu'an is coming to Dongye, so he picks him up to celebrate the new year.It's been a long time since I saw him. He wanted to have a beauty sleep last night, but Brother Ruo ruined it, so he had to wake up early in the morning to apply a mask.

"Are you still so leisurely?" Lu Yanzhou said, "Aren't you leaving today?"

Mingshu pressed the mask and said, "Yes."

"Then you haven't packed yet? What time is your train?"

"Someone is coming to pick me up."

Lu Yanzhou immediately became interested, "Who is so and so? Girlfriend?"

Mingshu almost laughed off the mask, "You are full of girlfriends."

"Isn't it because I'm still single!" Lu Yanzhou said enviously, "I've never been in a relationship."

Ming Shu went to wash his face, chatted with Lu Yanzhou, and went to have breakfast together. Lu Yanzhou was afraid of traffic jams, so he dragged his suitcase and left before 8 o'clock. Before he left, he was very regretful, "I can't see You have a girlfriend."

The door of the dormitory was closed, Mingshu sat for a while, and then began to pack his luggage.

This floor is full of intern policemen, and Wei Weiwei's voice outside has never stopped.

But this sound of coming home was comfortable to listen to at this time. He listened to it for a while, and suddenly heard "Congratulations on getting rich" outside, and he hummed along with it.

However, he was looking forward to returning home for the New Year, but he was still quite nervous.

He wanted to go back to two homes, Xiao's and Ming's.Going back to Ming's house is to eat dumplings with the old man, clean the house, and stay at Xiao's house for several days.

In the past, he didn't like the Ming family, but in the past two years, he felt that it was easier to stay in the Ming family.

The old man knew everything, and he had no intention of hiding it when he left home after graduating from high school.He fell in love with Xiao Yu'an, he would not marry someone he didn't love for the benefit of the family like Ming Haofeng did.He owes the Ming family.

But the Ming family also owed him.

In the matter of being in debt, he and the Ming family reached a delicate balance, which made him feel free.

But not in the Xiao family.

All the care and love he received in his childhood and youth came from the Xiao family, but when he grew up, he abducted the proud child of the Xiao family.

He is like a greedy thief.

In the Spring Festival of his freshman year, Xiao Yuan admitted to Xiao Lanyue the relationship that did not exist at that time. In the Spring Festival of his sophomore year, Xiao Yuan was abroad, and he went home alone, but in his junior year, he came back with Xiao Yuan.

How Xiao's elders treated him in the past is still how they treat him now, even Xiao Zhengyun, who is the most old-fashioned, never said a word of "no" to him, and never gave him a cold face.

My sister-in-law gave them a few junior gifts, and he never missed a share.

But the more they were like this, the more guilty he felt.

The whole Xiao family asked about his relationship with Xiao Yu'an once, but after that, it seemed that they had reached a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned it.

If this matter is not brought to light, then he will always be the youngest son of the Xiao family.

He could hardly bear their tolerance and generosity.

In the afternoon, the trainee police officers basically left, the corridor was quiet, and Ming Shu had finished cleaning up. When he was scratching his hair in front of the mirror, his cell phone rang.

Xiao Yu'an: "I'm here."

The corners of Mingshu's lips curled up immediately, and all the uneasiness in his heart was swept away.

Seeing Xiao Yu'an was the happiest.

When he was carrying a suitcase and saw the people across the road, he felt like he was a child again—he ran out of elementary school with a big schoolbag on his back, and his "slim" brother stood at the school gate to pick him up after school.

He learned the word slim at that time, and now he uses it now. He thinks his elder brother is slim.

This description made Xiao Jincheng laugh half to death.

"Brother—" Regardless of the gazes around him, anyway, he is still an intern policeman who is not familiar with him. When Ming Shu dragged his luggage and ran close, he suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Xiao Yu'an.

Fortunately, Xiao Yu'an was on a special mission, so his muscle strength could stabilize this sticky thing, otherwise both of them would have to fall.

Xiao Yu'an lightly touched Ming Shu's lips, put him down, and said with a smile, "It's dark."

Mingshu immediately argued, "I trained hard! I can still come back for nothing."

Xiao Yu'an didn't care if he was white or black, but he liked to tease him when he had nothing to do, "Can you come back to be white if you're all black?"

Mingshu said: "My brother loves me so much, I will come back for nothing."

Xiao Yuan rubbed the back of his neck.

That night, they went home.

The courtyard of the Xiao family was still the same as in previous years, full of lanterns and colorful lights, everyone crowded in the kitchen to prepare for tomorrow's New Year's Eve dinner, and tonight we will have hot pot.

There were actually lanterns hanging in Ming's house, Mingshu wanted to go to see the old man first, but saw a few cars parked outside.Since there are guests, he will not go.

——When he arrived at Xiao's house, Mingshu felt that the atmosphere was slightly different.But he couldn't tell the difference for a moment.

After thinking about it, he guessed that he was nervous every time he went home, and this year he was so nervous that he felt that there was an error.

The hot pot is placed in the yard, there is no room for one table, two tables are required.

Mingshu was hungry, so he sat beside Xiao Yuan and only cared about eating.

The dishes are all brought back by my sister-in-law in the car, which is much better than eating outside.After half a year of internship, he was so tired that he hadn't opened his stomach to eat for a long time, so he didn't notice that Xiao Yuan had been blanching the meat for him that only needed to be cooked for a few seconds.

Once hot, put it in his bowl.

In the past three Spring Festivals, he and Xiao Yuan deliberately kept a distance at home, and there was almost no intimacy. He would rather go to get together with Xiao Jincheng than get too close to Xiao Yuan.

He was worried that the elders would feel uncomfortable watching them.

Xiao Yuan's behavior at this time seemed to be a signal, a hint.

Xiao Yu'an wanted to admit their relationship in front of all relatives.

Mingshu finally realized the problem after eating another piece of hot, crispy and chewy hairy belly.He froze for a moment, then turned his head to look at Xiao Yuan, his heart suddenly beat faster.

"Brother..." He called out softly.

Xiao Lanyue on the opposite side put down his chopsticks and looked at them calmly.

Xiao Yuan didn't respond to the call, but held Mingshu's hand.Mingshu wanted to pull it back subconsciously, but he couldn't.

Xiao Yu'an was pulled very hard, and he couldn't break free.

The hot pot gurgled, burning the night, the taste of the new year, and the bondage of home.

Xiao Yu'an stood up, still clinging to Mingshu's hand, "Grandpa, dad, mom, me and Mingshu, thank you for your acquiescence over the years. I know it is not easy for you to accept it."

Mingshu lowered his head, not daring to look at anyone on the table, his chest was hot and his cheeks were also hot.

"You hope that I can marry and have children like you. When I first found out, you couldn't accept it." Xiao Yu'an paused, "But you didn't hurt Mingshu because of it. You have been tolerant of us and tried to understand us. Sheng I'm grateful to be in a family like this."

"Mingshu will be 23 years old in the second half of the year, and will officially become a criminal police officer. We may not be able to come back next Spring Festival." Xiao Yuan looked down at Mingshu, with a gentle but firm tone, "He is my lover, he He is excellent and very good. I brought him back this year, and he has an extra identity. I hope his new identity can also be blessed by our mutual loved ones."

Mingshu's throat was tight, and when he raised his eyes again, his eye sockets were already red, uncontrollable tears fell from the end of his eyes, before he had time to wipe them, they were wiped away by Xiao Yu'an's fingers.

His heart was still beating like thunder, but it was surprisingly calm.He looked at Xiao Yu'an as if looking at light and faith.

His brother is everything to him.

He was the one who wooed, and he got what he wanted, all the favors he wanted.

At the other table, Xiao Yu'an's mother stood up and walked into the room.She seemed to leave the table because of anger, but a few minutes later, she came back with a black box in her hand.

She walked up to Mingshu, put the box in Mingshu's hand, then opened her arms and hugged Mingshu.

Mingshu stared blankly at the woman in front of him.

When he was a child, Mingshu always looked forward to her coming back, because every time she came back, she would bring many toys, and then took them a group of children to play around.

She said, "See what?"

Mingshu opened the box, and there were two keys inside.

Xiao Lanyue also came over and sighed softly, "I have wronged you all these years, we have figured it out a long time ago, we have found our own happiness, why should we hinder our children from finding their own happiness?"

Xiao Lanyue patted Xiao Yuan on the shoulder, "This house is in the city center, the location is good, the transportation is good, the children are married, and the parents have to solve the problem of the new house. Go and see it in two days, although you We are all busy, so it is impossible to live permanently, but we can’t be short of heart.”

Mingshu's fingertips trembled a little.

He didn't expect that Xiao Yu'an would suddenly ask his parents for blessings, and he didn't expect that the elders were not only willing to accept that he and Xiao Yu'an were together, but also prepared a new house for them like ordinary parents.

For a moment he lost the ability to speak.Just feel dizzy happiness.

He had been so unlucky, but now he is so lucky.

He had a brother, and from then on—everyone loved him.

"Keep the keys away, let's eat first." Xiao Zhengyun said, "The meat slices are too hot, and there are so many dishes behind, do you still want to eat?"

At the end of the hot pot, only Xiao Yu'an was left on the table.

They were all children back then, but now Xiao Jinlan has children, and the last student, Mingshu, is about to graduate from college, they are no longer the youngest juniors.

Xiao Yu'an drank with Xiao Muting, and Ming Shu also drank with Xiao Jincheng.Xiao Jinlan looked at them cheerfully, and did not persuade them to drink less.

It is not easy for the boys of their Xiao family to get together.

Mingshu drank too much, and when Xiao Yuan led him away, Xiao Jincheng waved at him and said with a smile: "Little sister, little sister!"

Ming Shu immediately blushed, "Brother, Xiao Jincheng is drunk, what nonsense is he talking about!"

Xiao Muting patted Xiao Jincheng's head, and Xiao Jincheng murmured to Xiao Muting: "He is the little sister-in-law! Xiao Muting, can you find me a little sister-in-law?"

The Spring Festival is short. From the third day of the Lunar New Year, the soldiers and policemen of the Xiao family left home one after another. On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it was Ming Shu and Xiao Yu'an's turn.

The two of them each took a set of keys to the new house, and Xiao Yuan sent Mingshu back to Dongye City. They only had two hours to rest before the helicopter from the team came to pick them up.

Outside Dongye City, Ming Shu wrapped his arms around Xiao Yu'an's waist, his eyes full of love, "Brother, am I the most powerful brother?"

Xiao Yuan smiled indulgently.

"I caught up with you, and the family finally recognized us. I'm about to become a real criminal policeman." Mingshu said, "I'm really good."

Xiao Yu'an said, "After all, it's Brother Ming."

Mingshu is full of ambition, but also a little melancholy.

He was finally going to flex his muscles in this strange city of Dong Ye and be on his own.He is a criminal policeman, and he has not received special training like Xiao Yuan. After graduation, he must sink to various cities.Dongye was the city that he, Xiao Yu'an, and the school discussed together and thought was the most suitable for him to wear a police uniform.

"Brother, wait for me for a few years." Ming Shu said, "I'll go find you when I become a mature and excellent criminal policeman."

Xiao Yuan scratched the tip of his nose, "Maybe I came to find you."

Mingshu said: "You looking for me?"

Xiao Yu'an smiled, "The future is so long, let's see."

Winter has not yet passed, and the streets are still full of the atmosphere of the Spring Festival. Mingshu waved his hands and said goodbye to Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan watched him blend into the steel bars and sky of the city.

Before long, he will be the guardian of the city.

"I'm here to look for you, to accompany you." When turning around, Xiao Yu'an whispered to himself, "You've been running for so long."
