[Waiting for the end of the world] Dongli chrysanthemum

Passing through the old forest on Eleventh, just Yan Changnian put a message in the Dongli space. I don’t know what happened. He couldn’t use the sword at the same time. He gave up the sword and jumped to the ground.

[The company has changed hands. These days, my parents and I left City S to go to City A to meet my grandfather who has never met. It may be inconvenient to enter Dongli Space, let me know.Your phone has no signal again. 】Eleven folded the letter paper in two, still put it in the Dongli space, and practiced slowly while walking.

"It's you?!" Su Jie looked at Eleven a few meters away in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Eleven was also very surprised. His spiritual consciousness is only within five meters, and he never expected to see acquaintances in this old forest.

Su Jie was carrying a bamboo basket and carrying a small medicine hoe, as if he was picking herbs.She put the medicine hoe at her feet: "We are also destined, and I didn't expect to meet in this kind of place. As far as I know, few people will come to this forest."

Nod at eleven: "I'm leaving."

"Hey, you!" Su Jie said strangely, "I don't have big heads and six arms, why do you want to stay away from me every time?"

Eleven just didn't know what to say to her, and looked at her: "Is there something wrong?"

As soon as Su Jie shook his head, he walked away.

Su Jie followed quickly: "Are you from a nearby village? Is there a doctor in your village? I mean, I'm a doctor, Chinese medicine practitioner. During this time, my friend and I will stay here for a while. Well, do you know where? Need a doctor... No, where do you live?"

Eleven said, "What a mess."

Su Jie smiled awkwardly, as if it was difficult to say anything.

Over the years, she has met many people, proud, shy, domineering, servile, eloquent, tall, short, beautiful, ugly, countless, and many of them have faded over time.At the beginning, when the man in front of her was still a child, he hesitated to open the door of the pharmacy and asked her in a low voice, "Is there any painkiller?", she remembered it.

From the first time to the last time, he went to the pharmacy three times in three years, each time to buy painkillers, always frowning slightly, not looking directly at people, but like a frightened little animal, with a little anxiety. Panicked, his eyes flickered, and as soon as he caught someone else's gaze, he immediately moved away.

Many years later, more than ten years later, she still occasionally thought that maybe that child had left the city; but on such a hot afternoon, he, who had grown into a mature man, pushed open the door of the pharmacy and asked her: "Is there any chance?" No banlangen?"

She couldn't describe how she felt at that moment.It seemed that she worked so hard to keep the pharmacy open just to wait for that moment, for the reunion at that moment.

Some things are always destined in the dark.

She didn't meet him deliberately, but often saw him inadvertently.

"You're a woman, aren't you afraid to run in such deep mountains and old forests?" For Su Jie, Shi Shi was not without doubts. From the time he entered junior high school at the age of 13 to now, his appearance has hardly changed in 18 years, except for a very few women. However, only goblins and practitioners can remain unchanged.

Su Jie, fairy?Or a cultivator?

In the past, he wouldn't have thought this way, but since he cultivated, it seems that any inconceivable things can be accepted.

"I'm afraid there's nothing I can do." Seeing that he no longer repulsed him so much, Su Jie hurriedly followed a few steps, "People have to eat."

Eleven didn't quite believe her words.

"You said you are Chinese medicine? There are not many people who study Chinese medicine now." He said, "What herbs did you dig? Few people come to this forest, so the harvest is good."

"It's okay, but most of them can't be used for alchemy..." Su Jie stopped suddenly.

"what?"

"It's nothing." Su Jie faltered and said after a while, "That friend of yours, the one who gave you the pills, where is he from?"

Eleven turned her head to look at her: "Looking for him? Changing the medicine? Unfortunately, I don't know where he went now."

Su Jie had always been very energetic. He was a little depressed when he heard the words, and his whole body exuded sadness, just like a dying patient saw the flame of hope, but the flame was blown out by a sudden wind.

She lowered her head, stopped in her tracks, and forced a smile at Eleven: "I'm sorry to bother you, goodbye."

Eleven watched her figure disappear into the bushes, and the sound of her footsteps gradually disappeared before returning home.

Planting rice seedlings in the village is all manual labor. I have been busy for several days in a row. After planting my own rice seedlings, I go to help my brother-in-law Liu, and then plant potatoes, cotton, sesame, spring corn, peanuts, soybeans, black beans, mung beans, etc. I am very busy. In the countryside, when I am not completely free, I seem to be able to find something to do every day, such as watching paddy fields, weeding, fertilizing, and killing insects...

The younger sister was so tired that she could hardly straighten her back during the few days of transplanting rice seedlings. Eleven asked her if she would go to work. The younger sister hadn't made a decision yet, and Eleven didn't urge her.Xiaomei is not a person who is afraid of hardship, but she can live a more relaxed life instead of being a peasant woman who works with the soil all day.

When Yan Bawang told his son that his grandfather wanted to see him, he was still worried that his son would not want to go. Yan Changnian didn't ask much, and packed his luggage with Xu Zhen. Anything, a few changes of clothes, toothbrushes and other toiletries are available in the hotel, but he likes to use his own. He brought the new toothbrush bought for him in the supermarket on the eleventh day before the Chinese New Year, a purple checked towel, shaving Aftershave lotion, and the usual mint-flavored shower gel, put them in the half-worn suitcase.

Yan Bawang asked the driver to go with him. The driver used to work part-time as a bodyguard and assistant. Except for going home, he would follow Yan Bawang the rest of the time.

At the airport in City A, two men came to pick him up, Yan Changnian's uncle and the short-lived "no tutor" man.

"Cousin, we meet again." The man was wearing a leather jacket and leather pants, with a pair of sunglasses hanging from the opening of the leather jacket with two buttons unbuttoned, and a smile that was obviously squeezed out on his face.

Perhaps seeing the youngest son rejuvenated, the last time the old man was hospitalized was a false alarm. The huge Yanzhai three-in-one courtyard was scattered with children who came back from all over the place. The old man wanted to recognize his youngest son again. Some people were happy and some were worried. , this move will definitely involve the interests of many people, and no one can treat it calmly.

Siheyuan with blue bricks and tiles, flying eaves and ridges, carved beams and painted buildings, red lacquer pillars, Yan Changnian stood smoking in the corridor, the old man and Yan Bawang were discussing in the study, Xu Zhen was exchanging parenting lessons with a group of women, big and small, although the children of the Yan family Marriage objects have high requirements, but it is not easy to raise a son like Yan Changnian. His appearance, character, character, and knowledge can all be said to be one in a million. Looking around, the whole In the Yan family, only the eldest son of the uncle's family can be compared.

Yan Changnian did not intentionally show his closeness. After the initial greeting, most of his peers kept a polite distance, and there were many people who looked at him with jealous eyes.

Yan Changnian is not usually so indifferent, but he can't be happy no matter what. He has never had a good impression of this kind of big family with a long history and many rules. Maybe Yan Bawang experienced too much in the early days of his business There are many obstructions and difficulties from various families. Those people always look at him condescendingly, use their power and money to suppress him, and scorn them as nouveau riche.

He didn't want to be as lazy as before.I don’t understand why his father would come back after 30 years of leaving the family. There are clues that it may be related to the end of the world. He believes that he has the ability to protect his parents, but he can’t tell anyone this secret, not even his parents. idea to do it.

There is not much time, let's see what the old man has arranged.

Overlord Yan stepped over the threshold and walked to Yan Changnian's side: "Your grandfather asked you to go to the study."

The layout of Mr. Yan's study was strikingly similar to that of King Yan's. An idea popped into Yan Changnian's mind. Could it be that his father has an Electra complex?Even if you are asked to marry, even if you are kicked out of the family tree, you still want to be recognized by your father and worship your father?Is this also one of the reasons why he brought his wife and children to recognize his ancestors?

Grandpa Yan's complexion was not very good-looking, Yan Changnian was the first one who dared to blatantly wander in front of him, and coughed, "I'm your grandpa." He didn't expect Yan Changnian to call him grandpa immediately, no matter the information It can be seen in person that Yan Changnian is not someone who is easily led away by others.

Yan Changnian did not look flattered, he nodded calmly, and waited for his next words.

Mr. Yan stopped talking, and took out a document from the desktop and gave it to him. Yan Changnian quickly browsed through it. The first page was all speculations about the evolution of the earth's environment by certain organizations, and the last page was a report about his own sexuality.

"You have read all the information. Our Yan family spent a lot of money to get it. Now that I recognize your father again, you are my grandson and have the blood of the Yan family. You have the right to know these things. Your father said you Is there any reason for preparing to transfer the company?"

"As you can see." Yan Changnian replied, "The sea level rise is visible, and the economy of City S will soon be impacted."

Mr. Yan waved his hand. His focus is not on this, but on Yan Changnian's sexual orientation. Homosexuality is a disease!Gotta rule!

Yan Changnian was expressionless: "Homosexuality is not a disease. I don't need to change."

"My Yan family doesn't allow such deviant behavior. Since your father can't control you, I'll discipline you for him!" Mr. Yan snorted coldly, assuming the posture of a patriarch, "I've already talked with your father, the company's You don't have to worry about it anymore, he will arrange..."

Yan Changnian said coldly, "Really? Then I'll ask him." He shouldn't have come to City A. These old antiques smell of decay all over their bodies. How did they survive until today?Self-righteous, always tough attitude, you think this is the old society?The parents are the sky, and no request can be violated?King Yan would never treat him like this!

Although the same blood is flowing, he is no different from a stranger. He makes outrageous and unreasonable demands when they meet. Yan Changnian is a young man with the unique blood of a young man. He smiled mockingly at this: "I don't know Why did my father come back after being kicked out of the house by you for 30 years, that is his choice, but I am me, my father cannot represent me, I have my own life, please don't interfere!"

The conversation broke down, and Mr. Yan was so angry that his temples were throbbing with blue veins, and he almost went to the hospital again. After a while, Xu Zhen took his son away temporarily. Mr. Yan was lying on the bed, and the family doctor hung up the bottle and ordered Don't let the patient get too angry, pack up the medical box and leave.

"Feng Yi, is this the good son you said? See how angry your father is? Just a few days after he came out of the hospital, he is getting old and can't stand it!" The one who spoke was Uncle Yan Changnian, King Yan Frowning, he glanced at his elder brother, who immediately stared back at him, "Am I wrong? The old one disobeyed orders and ran away from marriage, and the young one was gay! Like father, like son!"

Yan Bawang quarreled with his eldest brother, and everyone watched, the old man's personal servant stood at the stairs and whispered: "The old man is asleep, please be quiet."

Immediately, a needle could be heard in the hall. Bawang Yan returned to the house arranged for them. Yan Changnian sat in front of the living room window and surfed the Internet on his mobile phone. She can take it.

Bawang Yan signaled his son to come out, and asked him how he talked with the old man, Yan Changnian was blunt.

Yan Bawang said: "I don't mean that. You can control your own affairs, and I don't force you, but there are some things I want you to know. The current situation is turbulent. Although the central government is trying its best to maintain it, the country is too big and there are many people. It is not so easy to control. At present, the country has established doomsday shelters in several places, and not everyone can enter. It is said that only scientists who have made outstanding contributions, elites from all walks of life who have achieved certain achievements, have power and money Only talented people can live in the refuge, and there is no quota available through ordinary channels. If there is a quota, you must pay a certain amount of supplies as an occupancy fee..."

"Is there any information about the refuge?" Yan Changnian asked.

Bawang Yan shook his head. Few people in the whole country could see the extremely confidential things.

"What do you want to tell me?"

"It's about quotas. Your grandfather and the others got some quotas through channels..." Yan Changnian did not show interest and excitement as Yan Bawang imagined, and changed hands of the company, and the money and materials obtained were enough to pay for the quotas for three people. Need, "Your grandpa will give us three places..."

"Then what about Jingming?" Yan Changnian said.

"There is no quota. Quota and materials are indispensable. With your grandfather's ability, the quota you get is not enough for your family to allocate. Some people will inevitably be given up. I haven't contacted him for 30 years. He can think of us. I have given three places, and I have tried my best..." Yan Bawang felt uneasy when he saw Yan Changnian's expression.

"I don't mean to blame you, Dad." Yan Changnian said, "There is no need to worry about the safety and convenience of projects undertaken by the state, but after obtaining the qualifications to live in, what about life in the future? We are businessmen, and we were still in business at that time? Might have to work it out, money, force, how much supplies can one single-handedly carry? Can hungry insecure people be expected to obey the laws of peacetime outside the shelter? Can they be expected to be polite like a gentleman ?One person, several people, they dare to rush up to snatch supplies and divide them up! The hungry crowd will never give up any kind of meat that can be eaten! The precarious life is enough for them to trample all the laws and morals At your feet! That will be the best portrayal of living in the moment!"

It was a terrible sight.Yan Bawang can't imagine that kind of situation now, but it is necessary to plan ahead. When his father proposed the quota, he also tried to ask for one more. His father knew about his son and grandson, so he refused without hesitation, not only because The number of places is not easy to get, and it is because the grandson is gay.

The old man is old-fashioned, and he certainly cannot accept the fact that his grandson is gay, let alone give a place to his grandson's homosexuality.The family members are not enough to allocate, so where can we get an outsider?An outsider who is not welcome at all?

Difficult to advance or retreat, Bawang Yan sighed: "Dad has tried his best..."

"Thank you, Dad...I have to think about it." Yan Changnian rubbed his eyebrows, parents and lover, this is a difficult choice.
