It was the hottest season of the year when we left for Xishui Village. Wei Mingxu was repeatedly questioned by Chen Jianan before leaving. Chen Jianan felt that Wei Mingxu was a very picky and difficult person. It can be called obedient and obedient, but still not sure whether Wei Mingxu can accept the bumpy journey.

Chen Jianan confirmed one by one whether Wei Mingxu was air-sick, train-sick, bus-sick, or not. Wei Mingxu pinched his nose to make him sit still, and said, "I don't feel dizzy, only you jumping around like this dazzled my eyes. faint."

Chen Jianan sat down obediently, and confirmed again: "The trains over there are all green trains, are you okay?"

Chen Jianan was still a little worried until he got on the plane, he was afraid that Wei Mingxu would get impatient in the middle of the flight, and he would be called out every day, and the ground would not work.Wei Mingxu saw what was going on in his mind, pushed him to sit by the window, and said, "Don't worry, we will come back from Xishui Village exactly as we were."

The journey back to Xishui Village was faster than Chen Jianan imagined, perhaps because Wei Mingxu was by his side, Chen Jianan didn't feel lonely.He booked a soft sleeper ticket with Wei Mingxu, and there were only the two of them in the whole box. Chen Jianan lay on the small table and told Wei Mingxu what places passed by outside the window.

In fact, Chen Jianan has only walked this road for the fourth time. The first time was when he came out of Xishui Village. At that time, he was full of expectations and did not pay too much attention to the scenery along the way. , When he was leaving, he was hit again, and even more inadvertently paying attention to foreign objects.

Only this time, he was in a good mood, and even the scenery that had never been noticed by him became charming.

In fact, it's not that the scenery is charming, it's just that two people are in a closed space in an open environment, which inevitably creates a strong ambiguous atmosphere.If Chen Jianan doesn't find something for himself to do, he's afraid that he can't help sticking to Wei Mingxu.

It was strange, although Wei Mingxu had been getting along with him for a long time, and Wei Mingxu didn't reject any physical contact with him, but the two of them stopped at physical contact.Not to mention negative distance communication, I have never even kissed.

Chen Jianan can't think of a reason, after all, Wei Mingxu used to be a big beast who could get into heat even in the car and wanted to mess with him at any time, now with such a pure and pure style of asceticism, Chen Jianan can only guess whether he has already penetrated and enlightened to practice. Completed.

While talking, the eyes of the two people met. The sound of the rumbling train couldn't cover Chen Jianan's heartbeat. It was so exciting, Chen Jianan stared at Wei Mingxu and thought.

He is handsome, has a good figure, and knows a lot of things that I don't. The only shortcoming is that he has a bad temper, which seems to be gone now. It is simply perfect. How can I, Chen Jianan, have such an excellent partner? think.

After thinking about it, the faces of the two people approached. Chen Jianan's eyes blinked, and just when his eyelashes were about to touch Wei Mingxu's face, Wei Mingxu suddenly turned his head away.

Chen Jianan looked at Wei Mingxu blankly, Wei Mingxu looked a little annoyed, he changed the subject unnaturally, and said, "Is it coming soon, pack up."

As soon as the voice fell, the flight attendant knocked on the door outside and yelled: "Exchange tickets, exchange tickets, there are still 15 minutes for the train to enter the station, and passengers who get off should go to both sides of the carriage."

Until getting off the car, the atmosphere between the two of them was a bit awkward. Chen Jianan felt so ashamed that he failed to ask for a kiss and didn't want to talk anymore, while Wei Mingxu didn't know how to face Chen Jianan.

When I got out of the platform, I saw a man in a suit and leather shoes standing at the exit. The place where they got off was a small station, which was next to the nearest town to Xishui Village. Usually, no one in the town dressed like this, so it was very conspicuous. .

Chen Jianan finally found a chance to speak, he asked Wei Mingxu: "Is it yours?"

Wei Mingxu nodded and said, "The driver of the branch office in the city contacted the branch office while on the train and asked them to drive a car over, so that you don't have to squeeze a black car to pass."

Chen Jianan felt comforted again. Wei Mingxu's thoughtful thinking was much more reliable than his single-minded love mind.

After receiving the car keys, Wei Mingxu took some cash from his wallet and stuffed them into the driver's hand. He sent someone all the way and had to take the train back to the city. Wei Mingxu rewarded him very generously.

Driving the car, the speed was much faster. Sitting in the co-pilot, Chen Jianan excitedly said to Wei Mingxu: "A few years ago, we only opened the expressway here, but because of the toll, there were no cars to go. Everyone detoured from below. There is no toll road. I used to think that one day I must drive on this road and enjoy how cool the highway is.”

Wei Mingxu smiled and said, "Do you want me to drive?"

Chen Jianan showed his timidity again, and said, "It's better for you to come, I haven't driven on the expressway before, and I still have to show you the way."

After getting off the expressway and driving on the small road for nearly an hour, they finally saw the entrance of the village from a distance.Wei Mingxu parked the car on the side of the road and said, "Is it coming soon, come here."

Chen Jianan got in without knowing it, but got out of the car anyway. Wei Mingxu switched to the co-pilot and said, "In this way, everyone won't think too much, and will think that you are returning home."

Chen Jianan immediately understood what Wei Mingxu meant. Wei Mingxu was worried that he would be stabbed in the back when he followed the big boss back to the village in a car like this. However, Chen Jianan bit his lip and said, "Then I drive back, and others will Say I'm your driver?"

Wei Mingxu smiled and said, "Why are you so unconfident? You don't look like a driver at all. You're an internet celebrity with countless fans. Show off your aura, huh?"

In the 800 years of Xishui Village, no one was born once. A car drove in brightly. Some people opened the courtyard door and looked out. When they saw this car parked in front of Chen Cuixiang’s house, they sighed inwardly for an unknown reason. .

A few months ago, Chen Jianan sadly packed his things and left here, thinking that he would never come back again, but he did not expect that he would come back here again just a few months later.But when he came back again, Chen Jianan's state of mind and state were completely different. He faced the room with the attitude of a victor, as if facing an old lady.

Even if you ruined my first 18 years, but now, I have everything I want to have, and I will get better and better in the future, Chen Jianan thought.

Chen Jianan's house was a bit dilapidated than Wei Mingxu imagined, and because no one lived in it for a long time, it looked even darker and decayed.The size of the whole house is no larger than the living room of Chen Jianan's current house, but it is actually divided into three rooms.

Chen Jianan's room is on the left hand side as soon as he enters the door, facing the sun. In addition to the bed next to the wall, there are also chairs and tables for eating near the door. Presumably, he usually eats here.Directly facing the door is another room, which seems to be the place where the old lady lives, and also serves as a utility room, which is full of all kinds of dusty debris.Because the room was shaded, it looked cold and damp.There was a narrow space between the two rooms and the main entrance, and a stove was set up. Chen Jianan said that he would cook here in winter.We are outside in summer, otherwise the oily smoke would be too much.

In such a small space, Wei Mingxu found it difficult to turn around, so he raised the curtain and went out.Unexpectedly, the door curtain has become extremely fragile after being exposed to the sun for too long. When Wei Mingxu reached out to touch it, a large piece of cloth turned into debris and flew on his head.Unprepared for being choked, Wei Mingxu coughed loudly.

Chen Jianan hastily tore off the curtain and threw it aside, stroking Wei Mingxu's back and said, "Are you all right? How about...how about we go to the town to find a hotel tonight."

Wei Mingxu shook his head and said, "When I asked the driver from the branch to come over, I bought some cleaning tools and daily necessities and put them in the trunk. Let's tidy them up."

Chen Jianan actually didn't quite understand the purpose of Wei Mingxu's visit to Xishui Village. His household registration has been moved to the provincial capital, and even his previous student status is still in the town. There is really no need to return to Xishui Village, but Wei Mingxu insisted. Chen Jianan came with him.

Take it as an open and honest understanding between two people, be honest, let Wei Mingxu know about my previous life, be generous and not pretend to be a cover-up.Chen Jianan thought to himself.

Even if they only stayed for one night, the two of them still sweated profusely for two hours to clean up.Fortunately, although the old lady was poor during her lifetime, she was not sloppy. The house was just full of dust, and with a little tidying up, it could still be lived in.

Chen Jianan talked to Wei Mingxu while receiving it: "Before I went to middle school, I lived in adobe houses, which were leaky and soil-lost, and slept with mice in winter. Later, the dilapidated houses were remodeled in the village. Originally, I could build a A bigger new house, but the old lady has no money and no one, so after calculating the daily labor costs, she built such a small house.”

Chen Jianan skipped and swept the ashes from the old-fashioned large cabinet decades ago on the floor, and continued to talk to Wei Mingxu: "However, she likes to clean and tidy up. Although the house is small, it is much better than before."

Wei Mingxu reached out to take the small broom in his hand that was originally used to sweep the bed, and easily swept off the dust on it, and asked him, "What about you, do you think this place is good?"

"I used to think it was bad. Especially when I first went to the big city, I thought every day, if I was originally from there instead of coming from the mountains, how much less staring would I have to suffer." Wei Mingxu took over, Chen Jianan sat on the newly cleaned place and picked his fingernails and said, "Do you know what kind of mobile phone I took when I first went to City B? When I was in high school, I bought a smartphone at the second-hand mobile phone market at Jiekou. I found out later that it’s not a smartphone, it’s still a brick phone system, but it’s just made into a smartphone.”

Chen Jianan laughed while talking, as if laughing at his own innocence and stupidity. Wei Mingxu wanted to match Chen Jianan's smile, but he couldn't. Finally, he threw the rag aside and said, "Clean it up, go wash it. .”

Chen Jianan's thoughts were pulled back again, he slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, I forgot, there is no bath water yet."

Wei Mingxu has never seen such a simple bathroom like Chen Jianan's, even when he was in the army for ten years, and during field exercises with the army, it was not so simple: a few wooden stakes were nailed in a corner against the wall outside the house, and then thick plastic Cloth is around the outside, and the most advanced one is the shower. Chen Jianan proudly said that he bought it from the hardware store in the town, and he nailed it to the wall himself.The water pipe of the shower is connected to the roof, and on the roof is a very large tin bucket.

Chen Jianan said that when taking a bath, the water is pumped from here, and then there is real solar energy, which uses the sun to heat the water, and then you can take a bath.

When Chen Jianan said this, he was a little embarrassed, but he still felt ashamed and let Wei Mingxu suffer. Although he felt that the relationship between the two of them was not the same as before, Wei Mingxu never said what kind of relationship it was. .In this way, Wei Mingxu completely exposed his difficult living conditions from childhood to adulthood, Chen Jianan was not ready yet.

While waiting for the water to heat up, Wei Mingxu asked Chen Jianan to introduce to him the most glorious place in the family, the photo wall at home.The photo wall is hung in Chen Jianan's room. For the people in Xishui Village, taking pictures is a luxury. A few photos are enough to describe a person's life.

Wei Mingxu looked at the empty photo frame and asked Chen Jianan, "Why is this photo gone?"

Chen Jianan hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's in my wallet." As he spoke, he took out the wallet and handed it to Wei Mingxu. Wei Mingxu opened it, and there was a photo in the photo folder. The pictures that hang in my younger brother's nursery look exactly the same.

Wei Mingxu's hands were trembling a little, he held his other wrist with one hand to barely maintain his composure.Fortunately, Chen Jianan didn't look at him. He stared at the wall and said to himself: "I only found out when the old lady passed away. So I was bought. There is only this photo of me on this wall. So I took it, and I thought, maybe one day I can use this photo to find my biological parents."

Chen Jianan turned his head and looked at Wei Mingxu with a smile, and said: "You should know, I don't think you are shocked, did Brother Mao Mao tell you? But if you know it, you know, I don't say this to make you sympathize with me! "

Wei Mingxu felt that he was about to lose his standing, he said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, no sympathy."

Chen Jianan still looked at him with a smile, his eyes filled with tears, once he started to cry, the tears flowed out like a flood that opened the gate, Wei Mingxu hurriedly lowered his head to wipe his tears, but Chen Jianan cried more and more. fierce.

In the end, Chen Jianan stood on tiptoe and kissed Wei Mingxu's lips through the tears all over his face. He kissed indiscriminately while crying and said, "I'm so sad, why don't you kiss me?"

When Wei Mingxu touched the soft lips, he suddenly remembered the oath he made to Mrs. Wei.He knew in his heart that even if he didn't swear, at this moment, he should push Chen Jianan away and refuse this kiss.He couldn't take advantage of it like this, taking advantage of Chen Jianan's intimacy when he was sad and confused would make Wei Mingxu himself feel despicable.

But at this moment, he also really tasted why the bad roots in human nature can never be eradicated. He couldn't push Chen Jianan away, or he didn't want to push Chen Jianan away at all.Whether it was his wet tears, clumsy kisses, or the thin and soft body in his arms, Wei Mingxu couldn't bear to leave them behind.

----------

From Chen Jianan's point of view, if he hadn't been adopted and suffered so much pain after being adopted, maybe he wouldn't think that it was his grandma who ruined him, but when his life situation was so unsatisfactory, he couldn't change it. The status quo, thinking that grandma ruined his life, on the one hand, it is sincere, and there is also a hint of anger in it.After all, Chen Jianan was never a little white bunny bunny character. My brother thought he was different at first because he was aggressive. Later, when he was kidnapped by Bai Jinyi, he also rose up to resist.He is not the kind of character who will accept passively, and he will not easily write off those who have hurt him before.
