Xiao Yanzhi became tense, his expression became serious, his lips were tightly pursed, and his brows were wrinkled.

"What does this mean?" Xiao Yanzhi stared at Yue Shanlin, he was not prepared to meet his parents at all, let alone the background and situation of Yue Shanlin's family, he was very clear.

Now, when Yue Shanlin asked him to meet his parents, Xiao Yanzhi's first reaction was to reject and resist.

"Isn't it normal to pay New Year's greetings to the elders?" Yue Shanlin said to Xiao Yanzhi, "My grandpa sincerely invites you to sit at home, how about it? Give the old man some face?"

"Uh..." Xiao Yanzhi was held back by Yue Shanlin's words, and he couldn't say no to refuse, and he was a little annoyed. He was not ready to meet Yue Shanlin's parents at all, and he didn't like this kind of shock at all. !

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Yue Shanlin rubbed Xiao Yanzhi's hair with a smile, looked at Xiao Yanzhi seriously, and said, "I came out a year ago."

"What?" Xiao Yanzhi felt that he had received too much information tonight, and he subconsciously said, "Your grandfather didn't threaten you with a gun, and wanted to kill you with one shot?"

Yue Shanlin burst out laughing when he heard this, and he tapped Xiao Yanzhi's head lightly: "You have read too many novels. Our country controls guns. After the old man retired from the army, he never touched it again." How could you point a gun at me? What's more, the old man is not a violent person, he is an enlightened old man. "

Xiao Yanzhi looked at Yue Shanlin's relaxed expression when he talked about his grandfather, and knew that his grandfather did not make things difficult for him.

Ever since he heard the news of meeting his parents, he has been too nervous. He instinctively put Yue Shanlin's family on the opposite side of him, and even suspected that this was a grand banquet. But now that he has calmed down, he also feels that his nervousness is a bit ridiculous. Well, if a family like theirs really wanted to do something to him, how could they meet him? They would just quietly let themselves disappear in Beijing, just like how Shen Haohao was when he was forced to leave Beijing.

"I haven't officially introduced my parents to you, my grandpa...you should know."

Yue Shanlin stroked Xiao Yanzhi's shoulder, and comforted him while talking, "My father, Yue Deye, is an ordinary university professor who has done scientific research all his life. He is more concerned about his work than his family. He has always talked less , is also very easy-going, and is a teacher loved by students.

My mother, Cui Yiyun, is an ordinary civil servant. She had a hard life when she was young, so she has a stubborn personality. She is a very strong person, but she is also a kind person. "

"Tell me directly, who is the person in your family who objects to seeing me?"

Xiao Yanzhi knew that Yue Shanlin would not introduce his family at this moment for no reason, and from what he said just now, the person who objected was probably his mother.

"Smart ghost." Yue Shanlin already knew that Xiao Yanzhi was a person who could hear the strings and understand the elegant meaning, so he could understand some things without needing to say them thoroughly.

"Don't be afraid of me." Yue Shanlin patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, "My family is not a scourge, nor is it written in the novels. It's just a very ordinary family. You know what you are worried about now. is superfluous."

"Brother, you are coming out of the closet, not cheating." Xiao Yan's head is big, and Yue Shanlin's casual tone can't make him really relax. The ordinary family in Yue Shanlin's eyes is high in the eyes of others How can he really believe what Yue Shanlin said in his family? His parents are ordinary civil servants and university professors. He shook his head, "No family can calmly accept that their son is gay, and even bring a gay man Parents. What's more, your family is not an ordinary family..."

"Don't think about it too much. This time, my grandfather gave the order to kill you. He must take you home during the Chinese New Year. I wanted to treat you to dinner. I was afraid that you would be restrained for the first time. I have already helped you Pushed. If you don't show up tonight, I'm afraid I'll be whipped by him."

Yue Shanlin said in a pitiful voice, "I don't have a pistol, but I still have a horsewhip at home, which was given to the Mongolian Prime Minister when he visited China. I have seen my grandfather beat my uncle with a whip, and the effect is immediate.

You, can you bear to see me being drawn?Besides, when the time comes when the smoke is broken, you still have to take care of me hard, don't you? "

Xiao Yanzhi knew that he was going to see Yue Shanlin's family no matter what tonight, he took a deep breath, tried his best to restore his heartbeat to a normal state, and made the last struggle: "Can you discuss with your grandpa , Come back tomorrow, this incident was too sudden, I didn’t even buy them any presents. Is it too bad that I don’t bring anything with me for the first time?”

"You are the best gift." Yue Shanlin held Xiao Yanzhi's head and said seriously, "In other words, I am almost forty, and I am in charge of a large group. Everything I can do to me Deciding to be responsible, you are my responsibility, I want to spend a lifetime with you, seriously, so don't belittle yourself, and don't be uneasy, I am by your side, no matter what you encounter, I will face it with you. "

Xiao Yanzhi looked at Yue Shanlin in a daze when he heard the words. Yue Shanlin's words made his uneasy heartbeat calm down.

Yes, he is Yue Shanlin's partner, they will spend the rest of their lives hand in hand, he and Yue Shanlin should face these together.

Presumably years ago, Yue Shanlin came out to the family alone, and had already endured a wave of family storms, and now it was time for him and Yue Shanlin to bear it together.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yanzhi felt sorry for Yue Shanlin, and couldn't help complaining: "Why did you come out like this years ago? What if your grandfather was furious and whipped you?"

"Do you feel sorry for me?" Yue Shanlin felt as if he had eaten honey in his heart, and the smile on his face became more gentle.

"I'm worried that you will make the old man angry!"

Xiao Yanzhi refused to admit his death, he jumped out of the car, straightened his clothes and hair, then covered his mouth and let out a breath, the faint smell of alcohol came out from his palm, he took out the Xiangkou Pill from his coat pocket and ate it hastily One, fortunately, I just had a few sips at night, otherwise I'm afraid it will be cold when I meet my parents after drinking.

"Let's go, don't worry, I'm here." Yue Shanlin stood aside and waited quietly for Xiao Yanzhi to prepare. Seeing that he was finally ready, he stepped forward to grab Xiao Yanzhi's hand and squeezed his hand tightly. Clenched tightly in his hands, he strode home.

In fact, Yue Jin’s wave of retired veteran cadres retired relatively early. Yue Jin had been a soldier all his life, and he was only 60 years old when he retired from the army. Later, he was ordered to take part in other jobs when he was in danger. things.

He lived in the old cadre's house in advance. The brothers were all fought on the battlefield, and when they got old, they cherished the friendship that they carried guns together when they were young, so he didn't live there anymore. , but moved in early.

Yue Jin is not a very particular person. He has lived in the old cadre's office for more than ten years, and the furniture, tables and chairs in the house were all arranged collectively when he moved in.

When Xiao Yanzhi walked into the living room, his first reaction was simplicity. Every piece of furniture in this home could be seen to be old, and the style of the sofa was also a popular style at the beginning of this century. The owner is also a fastidious person. There are oil paintings hanging in the corridor, exquisite Russian color plates on the cabinets, and exquisite silver tea sets and English tea sets in a few compartments in a glass wall cabinet in the living room.

"What's the matter?" Yue Shanlin held Xiao Yanzhi's hand all the way, and seeing Xiao Yanzhi staring at a ceramic kitten on the shoe cabinet in the entrance, couldn't help asking.

"No, I just didn't expect your grandpa's house to be so warmly furnished." Xiao Yanzhi whispered, there was no one in the living room at the moment, so he was slightly relieved.

Yue Shanlin took out a pair of slippers for him, Xiao Yanzhi changed his shoes, and followed Yue Shanlin into the living room. In the living room, a large landscape oil painting was hung on the wall behind the sofa. The colors are bright, and it can be seen that the painter has a delicate mind and is full of feminine tenderness. Xiao Yanzhi can't help but be attracted by this painting because he doesn't know oil painting.

"Do you like this painting?" Yue Shanlin followed Xiao Yanzhi's eyes and looked at him with admiration.

"I like it. It gives people a very happy feeling." Xiao Yanzhi nodded. The painter must be a cheerful, gentle and enthusiastic person. Just looking at this painting makes people feel peaceful, with a feeling of being bathed in the sun. gentle.

"What a vision, this is my grandma's work." Yue Shanlin replied, with unconscious pride in his tone, "All the oil paintings hanging in this house, as well as those exquisite ornaments and porcelains, are all collected by my grandma , she is a person who loves life."

"That's great, she must love you very much." Xiao Yanzhi looked at Yue Shanlin enviously. His grandma passed away early, and he had almost no impression of grandma. He could only see it when he was looking at the photos when he was young. Seeing an old lady in Hui'an clothes, hugging herself tenderly.

"Loves me very much, and is a very kind and considerate person. In fact, she is the first person in this family who knows my sexual orientation."

Yue Shanlin recalled, "I was still young at that time, she found out my little secret, and told me mischievously that she would definitely help me keep the secret. Later, every time I went home to visit her, she would secretly ask me if there was any I didn't find a boyfriend, which made me feel embarrassed."

"And then?" Xiao Yanzhi asked without knowing it, and he found that Yue Shanlin was a person who valued his family very much.

"She did it, and she didn't tell my family my secret until she died."

Yue Shanlin looked at Xiao Yanzhi with great regret, "The year we met, she passed away. It's a pity that I couldn't introduce you to her."

"Sorry." Xiao Yanzhi said hastily.

Yue Shanlin shook his head: "She was not in good health in those years, we were all prepared in our hearts, and she walked away peacefully."

"She is a happy person. She has such a filial grandson like you." Xiao Yanzhi comforted her.

"Hmph, of course she is happy, it's because of my husband!"

An old voice sounded from behind, Xiao Yanzhi turned around and looked, Yue Jin, supported by the nanny, came out of the bedroom with a serious face.
