Backtracking boat

After closing the bedroom door, Shen Mo pulled Ren Hong to sit down on the sofa in the square hall.Xu Shi was infected by Ren Jibin's relaxed mood just now. He was obviously facing a serious and sad matter at an old friend's house, but he stared at Ren Hong's rare dead fish face and the mysterious trace left on his hair when he cooked porridge for Ren Jibin. A vegetable, but Shen Mo couldn't help the desire to laugh.How bad this is, he thought introspectively, but he really couldn't bear to see Ren Hong's grieving ghost, so he put on a posture that seemed to be in pain and persuaded: "Cheer up, what's the matter?" What you know is that Xiaobin’s arm is broken, and those who don’t know think it’s your family...” Shen Mo originally wanted to say that if he didn’t know, he thought your Xiaobin had a broken head. Under Ren Hong's suddenly sharp eyesight, he quickly changed the subject: "...I thought your ancestral grave was dug up."

Feeling that the eye knife was sealed, Shen Mo took a breath in fear. Compared with Ren Ji Bin, digging his ancestral grave was safer.Shen Mo and Ren Hong's bamboo horses are always rude, but Ren Hong has never felt that this bamboo horse is extremely annoying like this moment. He turned his head to the side and said in a muffled voice: "You don't know if you heal your scars. pain."

These words made Shen Mo's mood down, and he shoved Ren Hong's knee embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, I just want you to relax..." He responded with a deep sigh.Under the thick low-pressure clouds, Shen Mo still restored the incident from Ren Hong's intermittent narration and self-reasoning.

In the past two years, Ren Hong and Ren Jibin's underground relationship has been uneventful. This is not to say that the two of them concealed it well. It can only be fortunate that the two brothers have had a good relationship since childhood, and step-brother love is in the minds of the older generation. It was too shocking, so even if the pink bubbles produced by the chemical reaction between them were about to run out, none of the family members thought in the wrong direction.Taking into account that his father is getting older, Ren Hong discussed with Ren Jibin the two-no policy for living well: not coming out, not having sex marriages, at least the blow to the unmarried couple is much less than that of homosexuality.Unexpectedly, the plan could not keep up with the changes, and a thunderbolt caught everyone off guard.

The crux of the matter was still on Ren Jibin's side.Don't look at Ren Jibin's introverted personality and his autistic appearance from time to time. In fact, he has a good reputation in school, strong professional ability, and is quite popular with students.Not to mention being awarded a professional title just after reaching the age limit, every time the selection of "Excellent Young Teachers" and "Most Popular Teachers among Students" is on the list.The so-called "a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it", not to mention that this tree is not so tall that the "wind" can set up a pergola to look at the tree and sigh.So, just a week after Ren Jibin's school gave him the recommendation of a hundred outstanding teachers in the city, several anonymous report letters with photos were sent to the desks of every leader of the school committee.How does the content of the letter stand on the moral high ground, pointing out that Ji Bin’s character is corrupt, he has no regard for shame and his brother is not worthy of being a teacher of the people? The one who smiled softly, the one who bought groceries holding hands in the supermarket, the one who kissed before leaving home...the evidence is conclusive and indisputable.When the school leader called him to the interview room to see the photos, Ren Jibin instantly tasted the star addiction of being framed by paparazzi.

In the workplace, the handling of private life has always adopted the principle of no complaints and no corrections.Now that Ren Jibin's love affair is spread on the table with great fanfare, not to mention the shady homosexuality, family affairs are no longer a private matter, but a difficult case in the moral classroom.The recommendation of the excellent teacher was put on hold as expected, and when the school leaders were still scratching their heads to deal with the opinions, the thick report letter was quietly placed in his mailbox, and was taken into the room by Ren Jibin's mother along with the morning paper.When Ren Hong picked up the depressed Ren Jibin and returned home, a tenth category hurricane ushered in as soon as he entered the door.

Amidst the broken vases and glass shards all over the floor, Father Ren's hands were shaking so badly, he held up the stack of photos and threw them at Ren Hong's face, he opened his mouth twice without saying a word .Ren Jibin's mother's eyes were swollen like overripe peaches from crying. She wanted to hit Ren Jibin but couldn't do it. She wanted to turn around and hit Ren Hong, but because she was someone else's child, she could only continue to sit on the sofa and cry.Ren Hong knew that there was no room for change in the matter, so he simply held Ren Jibin's hand tightly and confessed to the two old people in full.Faced with the unrealistic feeling of the photo, Father Ren was completely torn into a bloody reality by the hands of the two children. Fortunately, the old man has no common diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure other than bad knee joints, otherwise he would definitely suffer Get angry on the spot.

In a rage, Father Ren raised the civilized stick in his hand, took a few steps forward and smashed it down hard at Ren Hong. After swinging the stick, he regained his senses and knew that it was not good, but it was too late to stop.At this time, Ren Jibin who was next to him suddenly stretched out his arm to protect Ren Hong, and the stick hit Ren Jibin's right forearm.Hearing the sound of bones breaking in his ears, Ren Hong's brain exploded with a bang, and his eyes were so red that they could bleed, regardless of the old man who was stunned and the aunt who was exclaiming, his back was in pain and cold sweat Ren Jibin ran out of the house with a full face.

Ren Hong knew that he could not drive a car in this state, so he stopped a taxi and went to a nearby hospital. He hugged someone in the back seat and shed tears all the way. Instead, it was the injured Ren Jibin who calmly called the restaurant at home. The old employee who knows the basics asked him to accompany the old man, and then he had to endure the pain to comfort the emotionally out-of-control brother, which was very tiring.

After a plaster cast and anti-inflammatory drugs were applied in the hospital, Ren Hong resolutely took Ren Jibin to move to a new house that had just been renovated less than half a year ago, and resolutely ran away from home.

Shen Mo listened to what had happened, his heart was heavy, and he and Ren Hong were silent for a while, remembering Ren Jibin's entrustment, forced a smile, and said: "Then why are you flirting with Xiaobin, he is still hurt , you have the heart too?"

Hearing Shen Mo's words, Ren Hong's red eyes were immediately filled with water vapor. He waited for a few minutes before he could barely suppress the choking in his throat, and his voice trembled: "He still blames me for turning my face, who the hell is that?" Ask him to stop that for me! I usually feel bad for him who is too tired to sleep well. How can he stretch his thin arm like a stick? What's more, what's more, you know him What did he say to me when he came back from the hospital? He actually told me to leave him alone and go home to coax my parents. He also said that if I can’t convince my dad, respect my decision... Is this a fucking human word? , Hearing this, I wanted to strangle him to death! He wants me to dig out my heart and show him to be satisfied, right? How could I be restrained by such a heartless thing.”

The more Ren Hong talked, the more he felt distressed, the more he thought about it, the more wronged he became, and finally he said harsh words: "It's fine, I will obey him! I will go home tomorrow and admit my mistake, and the day after tomorrow I will go on a fucking blind date. After the blind date, I will get married and give birth to three One, four, I granted his wish..."

After saying this, Shen Mo was almost laughed at by Ren Hong, and afraid that Ren Jibin would hear it, he hurriedly covered Ren Hong's mouth: "Ancestor, what are you doing, isn't Xiaobin afraid that you will be difficult to do it! Just because you feel bad Doesn't he feel bad for you? Let's have a good talk, and then think about how to go home and persuade the old man and auntie is a serious matter. There is a use for being angry." Ren Hong shook off Shen Mo's hand, wiped his face, and said He went into the bathroom silently and didn't come out for a long time.Shen Mo was worried, so he quietly walked to the door of the bathroom to listen, and heard the suppressed crying from inside, which lasted for a long, long time.

Ren Hong still refused to talk to Ren Jibin, and the necessary communication depended on Shen Mo's message.In the evening, Shen Mo took care of Ren Jibin after taking the medicine and fell asleep, and looked at Ren Hong who had hid in the guest room early: "Are you safe letting Xiaobin sleep alone?" Ren Hong said angrily, "I care about him!" Said Wan couldn't help but murmured again: "His arm is afraid of being squeezed..."

It was very late at night, Shen Mo and Ren Hong were lying side by side on the bed, neither of them could fall asleep due to their heavy worries.In the middle of the night, Shen Mo felt that Ren Hong got up and went out quietly, and came back quietly after a while.Just as Ren Hong lay back on the pillow, he heard the person next to him snort: "Don't worry about it." Ren Hong coughed twice in embarrassment, pretending not to hear.

Shen Mo turned around, turned to Ren Hong and asked, "Have you ever thought about what you will do if uncle and aunt disagree?" Ren Hong was silent for a while, then said softly but firmly: "I will go home Plead with them and get forgiveness. If you agree, I thank them, but if you don’t agree, there is nothing you can do, it is considered unfilial to your son.”

"...Then you are not afraid of uncle's opposition?"

"Desperately oppose...then I will desperately resist. Unless Xiaobin has someone he likes more, no one has the right to separate us. If my dad thinks, he would rather see me die than let me go." What he thinks is the right way, it only shows that social concepts are more important than the life of a son."

In the dark night, every word Ren Hong said was like a heavy hammer, hitting Shen Mo's heart: "Shen Mo, I am different from you, I just look filial and obedient. I always thought that my parents gave me life. And the grace of upbringing, I give back to them for support, patient companionship, and a life of self-improvement. But feelings are really a personal matter, and it has nothing to do with others' opinions, or even with parents' expectations. As long as it does not violate public order and good customs, Who can criticize? Not even parents. This idea may not be correct, but I have always thought so. Xiaobin and I did not destroy other people’s families, and we did not publicize bad habits. It is just that we are loyal to each other, If you really love each other, how can you be so rebellious? Why should you be accused by thousands of people? So, I will never admit defeat, not at all."

The next day, Shen Mo stayed with Ren Hong and his brothers for a day, and was treated as a coolie, cooking three sick meals plus supper, helping to clean up the room for the whole day, washing tons of sheets, quilts, coats and pillowcases, and squeezing the last drop of the leftovers. After the value, he was ruthlessly kicked back to Suzhou the next day.

After sending Shen Mo away, the room with two bedrooms and one living room became deserted again.Ren Hong stood alone in front of the window with his hips on his hips, after thinking and thinking, he softened his heart and went into the bedroom.Ren Jibin was leaning halfway in front of the bed in a daze. He injured his arm, which didn't actually affect his activities on the ground, but because he had been frozen with Ren Hong before, he was anxious and sad, so he simply used his injuries to continue the cold war with Ren Hong.It was the first time in a few days that I saw Ren Hong enter the bedroom not to bring water and feed, so I couldn't help but sit up straight, staring at Ren Hong without blinking.

The author has something to say: the sub-cp small theater at the end of the chapter:

Tian Shui: "Papa, you can see how firm they are in their relationship."

Tangyuan: "Look at my shit-shoveling officer again."

Shot put: "Oh, people are more angry than meow, meow~"
