Yu Liangmu

You Liangmu stood in front of the long-lost old house, too surprised to speak.

His eyes repeatedly scanned the beautiful small building in front of him, the yard full of flowers and plants, and the small green trees. For a while, he thought that he had gone wrong.

"This... is this really our house?" He asked his uncle in astonishment.

"if not?"

"But, maybe it wasn't like this before."

"Don't doubt, this is our old house," You Qichao pulled him, and pointed him to the stone next to the door, "Do you remember? When you were young, you stepped on moss when you were jumping around, and you knocked your head here. The forehead is full of blood, but it scared me and your grandparents to death."

The word "shock" is no longer enough to describe You Liangmu's current feelings, he even finds it very strange, as if he is having a dream that he has had many times.

This is the house he dreamed of, fresh, sunny, full of hope and heart.But now, the old house in front of him was completely repaired according to his vision, and all the dilapidated and lifeless old houses were wiped away.

This is a small three-story red brick and white tile western-style building. There are two straight street lamps at the door. When you walk in, you can see the yard. Looking up, you can see a small balcony on the third and second floors. Very warm sunshine.

There are two more wicker chairs and low stools in the yard, and a few very simple egg fruit, tree pineapple and sweet-scented osmanthus are planted. The lawn is green and tender, and there are five or six capsicum plants dotted with it. Neat white fences are built around them. .

Every part of this house is completely in line with You Liangmu's preferences.

He suddenly remembered who he had told this to.

Seeing his jealous look, You Qichao walked over and patted his head, "I told you all, Mr. Tang has a deep affection for you."

"It's him..." You Liangmu already understood in his heart, and he didn't need others to clarify.

The chest was so hot that it was about to burn.

"Yes, our old house was built by Mr. Tang with his money and efforts." You Qichao breathed out, "It was cold and rainy at that time, so he squatted in our yard with a shovel to build it. The fence is dirty, drenched from head to toe like a soaked chicken, and I can’t persuade it to go. In summer, it is under the sun, planting fruit trees and peppers here, and pulling weeds for a day... I I always thought he was out of his mind."

"How could this be him..." You Liangmu had mixed emotions, and it was difficult to connect the person his uncle mentioned with the Tang Yunqian he knew.

In his cognition, Tang Yunqian has always been the big man who maintains his dignity at all times, makes himself look easy, and easily controls everything. He is strong and secure.

Instead of letting go of all appearances like this, you are willing to let yourself be reduced to a messy and hard look, put down your body and do some rough work that only small people do, work on yourself, and make yourself sloppy and messy.

If his uncle hadn't said that, he would never have imagined that Tang Yunqian had such a side.

"Think about it, there is a big boss with a bare neck and a handsome body. In order to plant some fruit trees, he personally dug a mud pit with a shovel for two or three days. When I saw that he was almost suffering from heat stroke, I asked him to help him, but he also said no. He usually comes here when he is free, and he also goes to connect the water pipes in the small yard, shovel the lawn, and make himself look like a decoration worker. If it is not for you, what else can he do for it?"

Yes, why else.

Youliangmu's heart was blocked one after another, and the sour energy rushed straight to his head, and he asked in a low voice: "Our town... is developing very well now, and it is he—"

"Yes," You Qichao couldn't wait to interrupt his belated nephew, "otherwise, who else would there be? No one with a little brain would invest in our poor town. Do you really think there are philanthropists everywhere?"

You Liangmu felt that his eyes were a little hot, and he had just cried when he reunited with his uncle after a long absence, so he was very familiar with this feeling, and he couldn't control his eyes again.

After he reacted, he reached into his pocket and took out his phone.

I wanted to call that man.

Because there are so many things I want to ask and say.

It was the two ringings of the bell, beep-beep-he felt that the time passed very, very long.

"Hello?" The phone was connected, and there was the man's usual quiet and peaceful voice.

"Brother."

"Ah."

Youliangmu hesitated a little when he spoke, and forced himself to smile amiably, "...Uh, what are you doing?"

"Nothing."

Tang Yunqian put down the important documents in his hand, waved his hand silently, and dismissed Assistant Feng, who was standing by and was about to wait for the boss to finish the phone call, to continue reporting to work. Then, Wen Sheng said to the person on the phone, "I'm free, you explain."

"Brother, thank you."

"..."

"Thank you for taking care of my uncle."

You Liangmu paused for a while before slowly speaking, "I mean you found him a job. I heard from my uncle that you took good care of him and found him a job as a clerk. , and even found him a place to live, and solved a lot of troubles in life... I didn't know about these before."

"It's just a small thing."

"What about decorating my home?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and there was no response for a long time.

You Liangmu exhaled and inhaled slowly, and the heavier and heavier breath slowly flowed into Tang Yunqian's ears: "I went back to my hometown, and now I am here in the old house. I saw here... .Everything has become very beautiful and beautiful."

"It's a good thing."

"is it you?"

There was a long silence on the phone.

You Liangmu's eyes gradually blurred, and he didn't quite understand why his eyes were as sad as his mind, as if he was out of control, something that had been pressing and accumulating for a long time.

"Everything here, as far as I can see, has changed the way I had hoped.... Strange, isn't it? It's something I've never thought of, can anyone tell me why Brother Gan, I'm pretty stupid, can you explain clearly."

Tang Yunqian's breathing was also heavy, as if he was suppressing something, he tried his best to maintain a calm tone: "I discussed with your uncle about the renovation of the old house, and he agreed and gave me the key, so I will let people Renovating the house is all about when you just left."

"..."

"However, in the past few years, I sometimes go back and have a look," Tang Yunqian said with a smile, "It's quite piecemeal to fix those things, so don't blame me for making my own decisions."

"Ayou, I remember you said that you wanted to renovate the house in your hometown and build it into a small western-style building with two or three floors. You wanted red bricks and white tiles, and you wanted to replace all the old things inside. , so that the walls will no longer be moldy even in rainy days."

"..."

"You also said that you want to have a small balcony, build a fence in the yard, paint it white, and plant eggplants, pineapples, chili peppers, sweet-scented osmanthus... because they look good and you can eat them."

"..."

"You also want to build more libraries in the town so the kids can have a quiet place to read."

"..."

"Ayou, I will never forget what you said."

What the little man has said, the big man always remembers in his heart, including every word the little man said, the light in his eyes when he said these words, the hopeful and happy emotions, all the big man remembers well.

The reason why he remembers so clearly is because people always easily remember everything about the person they like. Since then, he has fallen in love with You Liangmu.

You Liangmu listened silently to what Tang Yunqian said, and felt that he was worthless, and his nasal cavity was twitching, like a badly repaired exhaust fan, ugly and unsightly.

It's been a long time since he's had such ups and downs for one thing. It's probably because he's been used to a stable and carefree life in the past four years. He tried his best to cover his mouth with his hands, but the intermittent residual voice still overflowed from his fingers.

"Tang Yunqian," the man struggled to speak, his voice was much lower, "You... why did you do this for me?"

In the past four years, he has built bridges and roads, built a library, built a beautiful school, and planted beautiful trees and flowers in his hometown.Renovating his old home into the look of his dreams, every detail is right.

What did he do so much for him?Is it just compensation?

You Liangmu wanted to ask too many questions, no matter how stupid he was, he vaguely had an answer in his heart, but he knew that he had to ask clearly to get an impartial confirmation.

"Tang Yunqian, if I hadn't asked you, you wouldn't have come to tell me yourself, right? Change to an unknown name?"

"..."

"You are like this, do you want to wait for me to find out? If I don't return to my hometown next month, I won't know until next month. If I don't come back until next year, I won't know until next year? If I never come back...you You have done so much for me, why didn't you tell me yourself?"

"..."

"Tang Yungan, I, You Liangmu, am a fool, but you... are really dumb too."

If it wasn't for a phone call, You Liangmu, no matter how gentle and weak he was, would have grabbed Tang Yunqian by the collar and punched him hard to beat him up.

Then kiss hard again.

How angry he is.

After a while, Tang Yunqian's voice came slowly from the phone, with an uncontrollable tremor in his tone, "Because I dare not take credit, I have no qualifications, let alone face, dare to say in front of you how good I am, Much for you."

"..."

"Ayou, even if I do more for you, I still feel ashamed when I face you."

"..."

"At that time, it was my fault, it was all my fault. In fact, I was the stupid person. I didn't even know how to make you accept me... so that I did a lot of things to hurt you. You are a person who is worth cherishing I don’t know how to cherish you, and I can’t treat you properly.”

"..."

Tang Yunqian swallowed heavily, "You said that you regretted not making me happy, but it wasn't true. The days with you were the happiest and most at ease times for me. It's not you who are bad, It's me, I'm bad, I'm a very bad person."

"..."

"You Liangmu, I'm sorry, I've been making you sad all those years."

The belated apology is as sad as the belated love. It makes their hearts ache when they recall those years and have to face the hurt they have received and the hurt they have given each other.

But speaking out, so these pains will be re-exposed to the light, slowly faded, healed, and replaced by a new way of love.

You Liangmu's chest was emptied, and he wiped away tears heavily with the back of his hand, "...that's why you asked me to consider Cheng Kai?"

"I don't want to. If possible, I would rather you can only touch me in this world. The only person you can see every day is me. I wish I could tie you up and be by my side forever. Ayu, I want to be the one you know The only one."

"..."

Tang Yun paused for a moment, then smiled self-deprecatingly, full of pain, "But it's unrealistic, I can no longer be such a selfish person, I want you to be happy, I want you to be free physically and mentally, and you can choose the rest of your life. And what I'm even more uncertain about is, now... Is it possible for me to be with you. I'm actually very scared."

If Youliangmu is willing, if he is happy, he can always be a hidden person, fulfilling all the joy and happiness of Youliangmu, even if he is not qualified to participate in it.

Whether You Liangmu is with Cheng Kai or falls in love with someone else, he no longer dares to intervene or obstruct.

Because he was actually very afraid that he would lose control during the process, and he would do something and say something, just like four years ago, to force You Liangmu away.

"Tang Yungan..."

"Ah."

"I--"

You Liangmu stopped.

This little, dull man, he's not very good at his head, and he's never been very good at arithmetic.To be honest, after all these years, he could no longer settle the debt between himself and Tang Yunqian.

Including those visible and invisible, between you and me, he couldn't estimate a specific number.

At first he owed him, and later he owed him. Over the years, they owed each other.

They seem to have benefited from each other, but they don't seem to have any. They seem to have hurt each other, but they seem to make up for it.

Tang Yunqian waited quietly for You Liangmu to finish speaking, and it was the first time he felt so anxious.

However, You Liangmu paused for a moment, but only asked softly on the other end of the phone, "Tomorrow, I plan to pay respects to grandma, do you want to come together?"

Those words just now, those guilt and entanglements seemed to be resolved by this soft, questioning words, which made Tang Yunqian's heart soft and turned into mud.

He seemed to be stagnant, "Ayu..."

"Uncle said, you come to pay homage to grandma for me every year, why don't you come together this year."

You Liangmu still clearly remembers how Tang Yunqian was by his side when his grandma passed away, helping him take care of his grandma's funeral.

People will never forget every timely gift, so even though he once resented Tang Yunqian because of those chaotic past events, these so-called hatreds and resentments did not last long.

Instead, it was Tang Yunqian who gave him company, and he kept thinking about it.

He still remembered that Tang Yunqian said at that time, in the future, I will often come back with you to pay homage to grandma.

I don't know if what the man said at that time still counts now.But capitalists talk like signing a contract, and it usually counts.What's more, to him, Tang Yunqian's words were like a promise.

Being a man always keeps promises.

After a long time, the wind blew past his ears, and You Liangmu heard a choked answer from a man on the phone: "Okay."

"Ayu, wait for me."
