accidental preference

The neighbors all came, the middle-aged uncles and aunts who had been watched by their grandmas took turns to accompany Yun Chen, Uncle Qian couldn't breathe from crying, Uncle Yu held Yun Chen's hand and wailed loudly , and finally was persuaded to go back by the young people at home.

In the middle of the night, he was finally the only one left in the memorial hall.

Yun Chen's eyes were red, but his face was extremely pale. He looked at grandma sadly, "Grandma, didn't you agree that September will send me to report to Jiangchuan University in person? He also said that the place where I study will be carefully checked. Go through it carefully, not to miss every corner.”

He lay beside the cold ice coffin, his voice trembling violently, "Grandma, don't go, stay with me again, okay..."

In the empty mourning hall, only Yunchen's suppressed crying could be heard, tears rolling down his cheeks, hitting the ground and forming a shallow puddle of water.

He didn't want to cry, he was afraid that when his grandma came back to see him so sad, he would go away uneasy when he was at the wake, he raised his hand and slapped himself hard, bit his lips tightly, and tried his best to make the choked voice Hold back.

Under the pale light, the lonely boy knelt in front of the ice coffin, his figure was as pale as a phantom.

In the cold cemetery, Yunchen carried grandma's urn up the stairs, and the neighbors behind him quietly wiped away their tears.

When Qi Qinghong arrived, he was completely taken aback by the scene in front of him.

A few middle-aged men and women stood aside in dark clothes, with sad faces, only Yun Chen was covered in white filial piety.

All alone.

Qi Qinghong raised his hand and pulled the white cloth hanging from the tomb, tore off a long strip, wrapped it around twice, and tied it tightly to his arm.

The neighbors looked at the stranger who came in a hurry and his strange behavior in amazement.

Yun Chen knelt in front of the two tombstones, with tears in his eyes, he vaguely felt that someone had come to his side, and then knelt down.

Yun Chen wiped his eyes vigorously, and finally saw clearly that the one kneeling beside him was his elder brother, the elder brother who was tied with the master's white filial cloth on his left arm.

More tears poured out, Qi Qinghong held Yun Chen's face in both hands, and wiped away his tears bit by bit with his fingertips, but more tears rolled down, wet his fingertips and palms .

Qi Qinghong said: "I will accompany you to see grandma off."

Several aunts couldn't help crying. They could see how well-behaved and bitter this child is. Now, he is alone and kneeling in front of the two tombstones. All relatives in the world are gone. So gone, there is no one left.

Qi Qinghong supported Yunchen's trembling body steadily, and kowtowed with him, their foreheads lightly touched the bluestone slab in front of the tombstone, the cold was suffocating.

Yunchen put the grandmother's urn into the tomb with his own hands, and then he and Qi Qinghong each grabbed a handful of soil and sprinkled it on it, while the cemetery staff waiting at the side started to work, and as the tomb closed bit by bit, Yun Chen Little by little, Chen's cheeks turned pale to bloodless, and suddenly his eyes were pitch black.

When he opened his eyes again, within a few seconds, his clothes were already drenched in cold sweat. Qi Qinghong held him half in his arms, and Yun Chen looked at the tombstone in front of him. His father and mother, grandpa and grandma were all neat and tidy. The family is finally reunited now.

Yunchen's heart felt tense, he straightened his back, supported Qi Qinghong's strong arms, and bowed deeply to the neighbors, "This time I am really very, very grateful to my uncles and aunts. Since childhood, my grandma and I She has received a lot of care from my uncles and aunts, and now my uncles and aunts are accompanying me to send my grandma off for the last time, so she must be very happy in her heart."

Yun Chen tried hard to suppress the choking in his voice, "Grandma didn't leave me, she just reunited with my grandfather, father, and mother, I...I'm happy for them."

Yun Chen rubbed his eyes vigorously, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, "Don't worry, uncles and aunts, I will take good care of myself, take filming seriously, study hard, and won't let you worry, and won't let grandma worry too much .”

The uncles patted Yun Chen on the shoulder, and the aunts helped him dry his tears. After saying goodbye to him one by one, they left the cemetery one after another. In the end, only Yun Chen and Qi Qinghong were left.

Qi Qinghong sat on the bluestone slab in the cemetery and hugged Yunchen into his arms.

Yunchen tightly hugged Qi Qinghong's waist and back, and put his face on Qi Qinghong's chest. It didn't take long for Qi Qinghong's clothes to get wet, but the person in his arms was always quiet and obedient without making a sound.

From a very young age, Yun Chen learned to hide his thoughts, and never talked about hurts or pains, it seems that he has long been used to swallowing the bitter fruit alone.It was the same this time, he was just tight, greedy, reluctant, and short-lived, allowing himself to cling to the corner of his lover's clothes, but he still didn't confide in half a word.

But Qi Qinghong understood.

At such a young age, Yunchen suffered constant blows one after another, yet he was able to stabilize his mind and manage grandma's funeral in an orderly and decent manner, from notifying neighbors and close friends of grandma to making reservations for the memorial hall, buying snacks for guests, and returning gifts. , all kinds of funeral supplies... to confirm the details and time of the burial with the cemetery...Qi Qinghong dare not, and is reluctant to guess what kind of past his little friend has experienced in order to forge his mind into what it is today.

Qi Qinghong closed his eyes, his always calm heart was filled with intense pain, and he was about to shed tears.

"Baby, stop crying, okay, grandma will be reluctant when she sees it." Qi Qinghong gently stroked Yunchen's thin back, and he was also reluctant.

Yunchen finally lifted his face from Qi Qinghong's arms.

Qi Qinghong stretched out his hand, and gently stroked Yunchen's swollen cheek, "If you want to slap me in the future, just slap me, okay?"

Yun Chen's tears rolled down again in an instant, his face was so pale that even his lips lost color.

Qi Qinghong's expression was as calm as usual, but only he knew that at this moment, he seemed to have lost all of Qi Qinghong's calmness, meticulousness, calmness, and unemotional qualities.

He didn't know what to do to save his little friend from being so sad.

Yun Chen wiped away the tears with the back of his hand, lowered his eyes, and whispered, "Mr. Qi, let's go down the mountain too."

Qi Qinghong pointed to the white cloth wrapped around his left arm, "I'm already wearing mourning, and your grandparents, parents, and mothers all know me, do you still want to drive me away?"

Yunchen stared blankly at the white cloth on Qi Qinghong's arm.

"Baby, don't break up with me, okay?" Qi Qinghong gently kissed Yunchen's red and swollen eyes.

Yunchen kept staring at the white cloth on Qi Qinghong's arm, and tears rolled down again, "I..." He choked up.

Qi Qinghong gently patted his back one after another, hugged him like a child, patted him, and coaxed him, "Baby, can you tell me what are you thinking?"

Yunchen looked at Qi Qinghong with tears in his eyes, "We, we are not suitable... Besides, grandma...wouldn't agree. I can't just stop listening to her and make her sad..."

Seeing that he was finally willing to speak, Qi Qinghong couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and he asked patiently: "Where are we not suitable? Would you like to tell me?"

Yun Chen lowered his eyes and did not speak.

Qi Qinghong didn't wait for an answer, and asked him again, "How do you know that grandma won't agree? Did you tell grandma about us?"

Yun Chen shook his head, tears fell on Qi Qinghong's lapel.

Qi Qinghong said: "I met with your grandmother twice alone. The first time, she really disagreed. The second time, she entrusted you to me."

Yunchen looked at Qi Qinghong fiercely.

Qi Qinghong's eyebrows and eyes are particularly outstanding. When he is willing to treat someone well with his heart, his eyes are tender, gentle and affectionate.

Qi Qinghong also looked at Yunchen.

At first, I just thought that this child was born beautiful, with a delicate and bright face, which was bright and attractive everywhere. Later, I felt that he had a good personality, docile and cute, and he did not complain when he was wronged by the world. He was innocent and childish. , with a clean and naive young mind, couldn't help but want to love him more, want to shelter him from the wind and rain, and want to build a greenhouse for him.

But in this world, how can there be any greenhouse that can shelter from wind and rain?

When the little bird is not in the cage, there will always be more wind and rain than sunny days. Even because of Qi Qinghong's existence, what the little chick encounters head-on is never gentle wind and light rain, but bloody wind.

But who would have the heart to keep a bird with colorful wings in a cage for the rest of his life?

Qi Qinghong kissed the end of his eyes again, "The first time I met grandma alone was after she met me in your ward. Grandma asked me what was the relationship between you and me. I originally wanted to hide it from her, but The old man is so wise and transparent, her expression told me that she guessed everything, so I told her, you are my boyfriend."

Yun Chen took a sharp breath and looked at Qi Qinghong in panic.
