quench thirst

Xu Yan and Suo Jing stayed in the room for a while, then left the room.When the two went out, Suo Yu was still standing outside the door.Xu Yan glanced at Suo Yu, and when he was looking at Suo Yu, Suo Jing didn't even look at Suo Yu, and went downstairs directly.

After seeing Suo Yu, the woman's diverse emotions seemed to return to indifference.Suo Jing went down from the second floor and asked Yang Yingqiao in the living room.

"Mom, is dinner ready? I'm hungry."

"Okay. Let's go eat." Yang Yingqiao said.

The mother and daughter simply talked to each other, as if nothing happened just now.Xu Yan looked towards the stairs, and then looked back at Suo Yu.

"Uncle..." Xu Yan called out.

Suo Yu looked at him, raised his hand to caress his face, after stroking him lightly, Suo Yu withdrew his hand and said, "Let's go eat."

Seeing Suo Yu like this, Xu Yan didn't ask any more questions or say anything. After he finished speaking, he smiled and nodded, "Okay."

After all, the two went downstairs together.

Xu Yan and Suo Yu went to the restaurant together.

Before they came, Lin Xun's family and Suo Yu's parents were already seated.There were two seats left on the dining table, next to each other, and it was his and Suo Yu's without even thinking about it.Xu Yan went over and sat next to Lin Xun, while Suo Yu sat on the other side of Xu Yan.

The food in the restaurant has already been served. Because of the large number of people, the dishes are very rich, and most of them are Xu Yan's favorite food.Xu Yan and Suo Yu's parents expressed their gratitude, Yang Yingqiao smiled at him and said, "Let's eat."

In this way, several people began to eat.

The Suo family usually has no rules when dining, and there are more or less voices at the table.And if Suo Jing came back, the dining table at home would be even more lively.But today, Suo Jing was just eating food there, and Suo Yu, who was diagonally across from her, didn't speak, but only picked up food for Xu Yan occasionally.

Yang Yingqiao and Suo Zhongru had dinner, and after eating for a while, Yang Yingqiao said, "Did you go to Qin's house today?"

When Suo Jing first arrived, Suo Jing mentioned that she would go to Aunt Qin's house to play mahjong and brought back bamboo slips.Yang Yingqiao naturally said this to her. After her mother asked, Suo Jing responded.

"Ah."

"She didn't say where she got the bamboo slips from?" Yang Yingqiao asked.

Suo Jing didn't really want to talk, but she had to say what her mother asked. After Yang Yingqiao finished asking, Suo Jing thought about what Aunt Qin had told her, and said, "It was collected in a small town in Ancheng."

"It's in good condition, but it needs to be repaired first." Yang Yingqiao said.

After Yang Yingqiao finished speaking, Suo Zhongru said, "It seems that the above records are some Chinese medicine documents."

Compared to Yang Yingqiao, Suo Zhongru's research in this area is not as good as hers, so I asked.After her husband asked, Yang Yingqiao responded lightly.

"You played mahjong all day today?"

When it came to playing mahjong, Suo Jing, who had never raised her head, raised her head. When it came to today's mahjong, she seemed to have a lot of things to say, but remembering that she was not in the mood now, she just said: "Played all afternoon, There are also sisters from the Xia family and the Lin family."

After saying this, Suo Jing seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and said to her mother, "I lost a day today."

This is a bit like coquettish.

Yang Yingqiao listened to Suo Jing's words, smiled lightly, and said, "Let's play for a while after dinner. It's impossible for us to be unlucky all the time."

"Okay..." Suo Jing nodded subconsciously.But after nodding, she thought of something again.She looked in Suo Yu's direction uncontrollably, frowned slightly, then glanced past Suo Yu, and looked at Xu Yan.

"Let's join Yanyan too." Suo Jing asked.

When looking at Xu Yan, Suo Jing's expression became much brighter, and she even smiled when she asked this question.Seeing Suo Jing's smile, Xu Yan didn't refuse, nodded and said, "Okay. But I haven't fought for a long time, and I might have a rough hand."

"You only need to fight if you're a freshman, just play more." Suo Jing said with a smile, "Today we play a little bigger, if you lose, it's mine, and if you win, it's yours."

Hearing Suo Jing finish speaking with a smile like this, Xu Yan also smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Because of the topic of playing mahjong at the dinner table, the atmosphere seemed to have eased a lot.After Xu Yan agreed to Suo Jing, he glanced at Suo Yu beside him.Suo Yu didn't look up when Suo Jing was speaking, he just sat there without speaking.And when he looked at him, Suo Yu also looked up at him.

The man's eyes were still looking at him calmly, Xu Yan looked away when he saw him like this.

After agreeing on the next mahjong game, Suo Jing seemed to open up the conversation, and began to ask Xu Yan which mahjong style he prefers.The two of you talked to each other, and the atmosphere at the dinner table rose.

Just as Suo Jing and Xu Yan were finalizing how to play mahjong tonight, Lin Xun, who had been silent next to Xu Yan, suddenly said something.

"Mom, I want to fight too."

After Lin Xun finished speaking, Suo Jing looked up at him.

Usually playing mahjong at home, Suo Jing sat on the mahjong table without moving.Besides her, the other grandparents and uncles took turns to rest. When they were resting, it was his father Lin Zhaoliang who took the place.

The adults played mahjong, but Lin Xun always just sat on the sidelines and watched.But today is different, today Xu Yan also participated, as a child, Xu Yan participated in it, and he felt that he could do it too.

"Slap the fart." Suo Jing said.

Lin Xun: "..."

After Suo Jing finished speaking, Lin Zhaoliang laughed next to him. Lin Xun glanced at his father resentfully, then looked at Suo Jing with displeasure and said, "Why can't I fight?"

After Lin Xun asked, Suo Jing picked up chopsticks and said while gnawing, "Why can't you fight? Look at this table, is there anyone of the same generation as you? The younger generation should not get involved in the affairs of the elders."

After Suo Jing finished speaking, the grandpa, grandma, father, mother, uncle, and... and Xu Yan at the dinner table all looked at him.

Lin Xun: "..."

He realized the meaning of what Suo Jing said just now almost instantly. His mother's words now obviously no longer regard Xu Yan as his brother, but as his younger siblings.

And his younger siblings are his aunt, aren't they his elders?

The moment Lin Xun came to his senses, Lin Xun's brain buzzed, which made him unable to recover for a while.He looked at Xu Yan beside him in disbelief, and Xu Yan seemed shocked by Suo Jing's words.When Lin Xun looked at him, his eyes moved first, and then, Lin Xun watched his ears turn red.

Lin Xun: "..."

Why are you ashamed!

After Suo Jing finished speaking, Suo Yu, who had been silent all this time, looked up at her.Sensing Suo Yu's gaze, Suo Jing didn't look at him, she put her expression aside and continued eating.

So the meal was finished amidst Lin Xun's shock and another strange atmosphere.

After dinner, several people went directly to the chess and card room.After Suo Jing said that at the dinner table, Lin Xun didn't even plan to enter the chess and card room. In the end, Xu Yan was the only child left in the chess and card room.

Xu Yan is not much better than Lin Xun now, and apart from being shocked, he also has an inexplicable feeling.What Suo Jing said just now meant that he recognized himself as Suo Yu's partner.Although it is said that he came to the door today as Suo Yu's lover, it is still a bit shameful to be said so directly.

The chess and card room was already hot, but Xu Yan's face didn't cool down in front of the mahjong table.

Suo Jing directly admitted his relationship with Suo Yu at the dinner table, but this does not mean that the awkwardness between her and Suo Yu is over.After arriving at the chess and card room, Suo Yu sat beside him and helped Xu Yan, while Suo Jing talked to everyone at the mahjong table, but ignored Suo Yu.

Suo Yu was silent at first, and after the last few rounds of mahjong, he hardly spoke except to guide Xu Yan.

Suo Jing lost a day in mahjong today. At the dinner table just now, Yang Yingqiao obviously wanted her to win.But with Xu Yan around, she didn't seem to care that much about winning or losing.On the mahjong table, Suo Jing had been feeding cards to Xu Yan, playing a few cards and Xu Yan was confused.

After the last lap, Xu Yan pushed the mahjong away again and said, "It's muddled."

"Your words are good!" Suo Jing looked at him with bright eyes and praised.

Sometimes Suo Jing really treats her like a child. Now Xu Yan coaxes Lin Xun to know that he will win or lose, but when Suo Jing coaxes him, he always makes him win.It was hard for Xu Yan to poke at the praise that he continued to praise after winning.

"Good luck." Xu Yan said with a smile.

"You're still the best. If Lin Xun was lucky, he wouldn't be able to win all the time." Suo Jing talked to Xu Yan while rubbing mahjong.

When Lin Xun was mentioned, Xu Yan stopped rubbing mahjong.He has been playing mahjong in the chess and card room for more than half an hour, and Lin Xun has never come over.

Thinking of this, Xu Yan said, "I'll go and see Lin Xun."

"He's outside." Suo Jing said, "It's okay, he's such an adult, he won't lose it."

"I'll go talk to him for a while, I'm pretty bored too." Xu Yan said.After that, he stood up directly from the mahjong table.

After standing up, Xu Yan, Yang Yingqiao and Suo Zhongru smiled, and then left the chess and card room directly.Suo Jing looked at Xu Yan's back, and before he could speak, Xu Yan closed the door of the chess and card room.

Suo Jing: "..."

As soon as Xu Yan left, Mahjong lost one of three.Behind Xu Yan's seat, Suo Yu was sitting.Originally Xu Yan left, Suo Yu just happened to fill his seat.

But Suo Jing glanced at Xu Yan's vacated space, and said something to her husband behind her.

"You hit."

After Suo Jing finished speaking, Lin Zhaoliang just smiled and said, "I've always been with you, let Ah Yu fight."

After Lin Zhaoliang finished speaking, Suo Jing turned her head and gave him a look, but Lin Zhaoliang smiled at her, raised her hand and squeezed her shoulder.Just when the couple was having a temper tantrum, Suo Yu had already replaced his seat.

Suo Yu sat in front of the mahjong table, raised his hand and began to play mahjong.In the chess and card room, silence fell after Xu Yan left.This kind of silence, after Suo Yu started playing mahjong, seemed to be a little more gloomy.

Now that Suo Yu had already started playing, Suo Jing glanced at him and didn't refuse again, but her face was obviously not that good-looking, so she raised her hand and started playing mahjong.

Suo Yu's voice came in amidst the irregular rubbing sounds of the family of four.

"I've liked Xu Yan for a long time."

As soon as Suo Yu opened his mouth, Suo Zhongru and Lin Zhaoliang beside him looked at him.In their impression, Suo Yu had always been a dull and quiet character, but they didn't expect him to be able to confide his feelings for that boy in front of so many people.

But Suo Jing didn't think so. She still remembered Lin Xun's saying that Suo Yu had liked Xu Yan since he was 15 years old.Thinking of this, Suo Jing said unhappily.

"You have the nerve to say it."

Originally, Suo Jing's words were only about Suo Yu, but now that the matter has reached this point, she has no intention of continuing to complain about Suo Yu.But after she finished speaking, Suo Yu stopped playing mahjong and looked up at her.

"Why am I embarrassed to say it?"

As soon as Suo Yu opened his mouth, Suo Jing, who had just withdrawn his gaze, was startled.Not only her, but other people in the chess and card room were also slightly taken aback.

Suo Yu is not a person who likes to argue with others, he never refute what others say, let alone his closest sister Suo Jing.

Suo Jing is ten years older than Suo Yu. To Suo Yu, she is actually more like a mother. He never contradicts her, let alone argues with her, but today he actually asked her back.

Suo Jing looked at Suo Yu with a hint of disbelief.

While Suo Jing was looking at him, Suo Yu raised his eyes and looked directly at her.He looked at his sister and said to her: "I have liked him for many years. I liked him when he was 15 years old. But I didn't overstep the rules. I just kept him in my heart. When I knew I liked him When he was with me, I went abroad. I didn’t stay in China. I don’t want someone to control my life in the future and make him trouble when he is with me. I’m also afraid that I won’t be able to control my feelings and interfere He. I knew it was shameless, so I hardly went back to China during those four years, and I didn’t even see him. I let him grow up to the age where he can distinguish right from wrong and have feelings, and then I was with him.”

"So, why am I ashamed to say that I have loved him for many years?" Suo Yu asked.
