"Then I'll trouble you, I know you've helped my little brother a lot, so it's ridiculous to tell you this kind of housework." Ling Wenxiu sighed, "But I really don't know who can persuade him."

"It's okay, Sister Wenxiu. As the eldest sister, you have enough to worry about. It will be easier to say it."

Xi Yi's pure smile was like a white camellia blooming under the morning dew. Ling Wenxiu suddenly felt that although the person in front of her was usually aloof, but every sentence spoke to her heart, she couldn't help being moved: "Mr. Xi, you are really a good person."

nice guy?Of course he did, and the smile on Xi's face deepened.

After the sacrifice was over, Xi Yi helped carry the remaining things back to Ling's house. Seeing Ling Yugui sitting at the door in a daze, he went up and patted him on the shoulder: "It's rare to come, take me to your village."

Ling Yugui rubbed his forehead: "What's there to do here?"

"This is the place where you were born and raised. Of course I want to know more about it."

"You..." Ling Yugui raised his head, received Xi Yi's expectant gaze, and immediately choked his words of rejection in his throat.

The village is not big, Ling Yugui took Xi Yi for a walk on the dirt road, and unknowingly walked to the orchard that the family had contracted.

After his mother passed away, Ling's father couldn't take care of it alone, so he quickly transferred the place out.

It was winter, and the orchard was a bleak scene. Ling Yugui led Xiyi through the forest without a word, aimlessly, and he didn't know where he wanted to go.

"Are you OK?"

Xi Yi's voice suddenly sounded, and Ling Yugui stopped in his tracks. Only then did he realize that the two of them had reached the edge of the orchard, and they were standing by a hillside, with a weedy wasteland below.

"It's okay, just go to God."

"This orchard used to belong to your family, right?"

"how do you know?"

Xi Yi walked to Ling Yugui's side and looked at her feet: "Your sister said that your family has contracted an orchard before, I guess."

"Oh……"

"There's something wrong with you today."

"is it?"

"Is it related to your mother?"

The wind on the top of the mountain was a bit cool, Ling Yugui folded his arms: "Is this what my sister told you?"

"Say a little bit."

"Do you think I'm ignorant?"

Xi Yi was silent for a while, then spoke again but did not continue his words: "Are you really not going to see your mother because you don't want to see her?"

"……Why do you ask?"

"Children are indeed ignorant, but they don't have such a strong view of beauty and ugliness. Under the request of their parents, you still don't want to. There should be more than just 'feel scary'."

"This analysis is too rational, but you really hit the spot." Ling Yugui looked at the distant clouds.

Xi Yi patted him on the shoulder: "So are you willing to talk to me about what happened back then?"

"It's not a big deal, I just heard them chatting once," Ling Yugui tried to make his tone lighter.

"My mother said that if she could see me grow up, she would be at ease, so I don't want her to see... see me growing up so quickly..."

"That day, I really didn't expect that she couldn't make it through."

Ling Yugui trembled a little when he spoke the last few words.

The orchard is very quiet, so quiet that if no one is talking, you can hear the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves.

Under the blue sky, Ling Yugui heard the people beside him sigh.

Xi Yi came over and hugged him from behind: "You have grown up, she should be very happy today, because her wish has been fulfilled."

His voice has always been very beautiful, but now it is as gentle and sweet as cotton candy. Just the fluffy appearance looks very healing.

Not to mention saying this sentence in Ling Yugui's ear.

Ling Yugui's bitter mood, which was just drowned by the past, seemed to be sprinkled with icing sugar, and the taste was neutralized a little bit.

The dim lights of that day dissipated, and the smiling face of the mother emerged more clearly.

His brows gradually relaxed, and when he found that Xi Yi was still hugging him, he patted his hand lightly: "Okay, okay, if she sees you like this, she probably won't be happy."

"You think too much, I am such a cute man, any mother-in-law would like it."

"Ha ha."

Seeing Ling Yugui's brisk expression, the corners of Xi Yi's mouth curled up slightly. Soon, the day he was looking forward to will come soon.

In the following days, Xi Yi followed Ling Yugui to visit relatives, and time soon came to the fourth day of the lunar new year. When they came back from outside, they found an acquaintance at home.

"Ayao, why are you here?" Ling Yugui looked surprised, Xue Yao actually came to pay New Year's greetings.

Xue Yao's hometown is a city away, Ling Yugui didn't expect him to come for Chinese New Year.

After hugging his brother, he saw the gifts on the ground again: "Come on, come on, what are you doing with so many things?"

"It's embarrassing to come to the door empty-handed," Xue Yao smiled, but fixed his eyes on Xiyi, "Xiyi actually spent the New Year at your house, you are really kind to him."

"He's a widow, so we can't leave him in a rented house."

"alright."

Hearing Xue Yao's slightly disappointed tone, Ling Yugui put his arm around his shoulder and joked, "Why, are you still jealous?"

"Eat as soon as you eat, say, how can you compensate me?"

"Why don't you stay here tonight, and we won't go home until we're drunk."

"I think so."

As Xue Yao said, he glanced over there day and night.

After receiving his probing gaze, Xiyi stood at the door calmly, as if she just saw two ordinary friends exchanging greetings, and didn't care much about it.

In fact, both he and Xue Yao knew that this was not the case.

What Xiyi didn't expect was that Xue Yao would lose his patience so quickly.

Not long after the Spring Festival, some rumors spread quietly on major platforms.

The person who released the rumor was vague, for example, a rumor under the dynamic of "Lui Ying" in Buyugui.

"I'm really disappointed in him. I could bear it at first, but after hearing about those things, I feel very disgusted."

Immediately someone asked curiously: "What's the matter, did my sister go to see a real person last time?"

"Hey, don't mention it, I'm announcing that I'm off the fan."

"If there is anyone who is not a fan, it's not just a small Internet celebrity. This circle is inherently dirty and there are many things, just get used to it."
