Yang Yinxi didn't dare to look back at her mother's expression, she froze and waited on the spot, her eyes circled around the intricately entwined lines of the yellow wooden door panel, staring at herself, not knowing whether she was fainted or afraid of fainting, her mind was in a state of confusion I can't even speak.

Mother is not.

After a long time, a heavy sigh resounded - in the end, it wasn't the nagging mother who spoke up, or Yang Yinxi, who was eager to escape, breaking the silence, but the most taciturn father in the family who didn't seem to have any opinions. the silence.

"Xiaoxi, go back and rest." Dad said, "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, let's talk about it after the new year."

Yang Yinxi clenched her fists, slowly turned her stiff neck and turned around.

Dad had a sullen face, frowning, and looked very serious rarely, and mother lowered her head and turned sideways, so that she couldn't see the expression clearly.

Definitely not happy.

Yang Yinxi's courage was exhausted after she said those words, and she dared not face her parents who had lost their smiles, for fear that the face covered by her mother would be covered with tears.She responded in a low voice, hurriedly opened the door and left.

When going upstairs, she wanted to run faster, but unfortunately she couldn't use the strength in her legs, so she could only walk tremblingly towards the room while holding on to the railing.

During the short distance, Yang Yinxi panted lightly with unsteady breathing, and stared at the stairs with tears in her eyes, afraid that she would miss the next step.At the corner, she turned around slowly, feeling that the steps seemed to be spinning when they came together, and she became even more dizzy, she bit her lip and raised her head to calm herself down.

He met a pair of worried eyes.

"Come." Min Jun stretched out a hand to her without further questioning.

Yang Yinxi took a deep breath, and raised her hand to hold Min Jun.The stairs are connected to each floor, and everyone can hear any sound. She hopes to pretend that nothing happened, and then speak slowly when she returns to the room, but the moment her fingertips touched her, the emotion that had been suffocated for a long time suddenly disappeared. Outburst, all she could control was biting her lips tightly and swallowing a sob, and in the blink of an eye, tears were already streaming down her face.

Min Jun took two steps down, and walked into the room with her half-embraced, covering her face and weeping.

After closing the door, Yang Yinxi burst into tears, faltering, "I...I told them...they...seem like they can't accept...what should I do..."

"Don't be afraid, it will be fine." Min Jun held her in his arms, stroked her hair and coaxed her softly.

Yang Yinxi didn't have the mood to talk, so she concentrated on crying for a while.

After a while, she felt that she had vented enough, and her sleeves wet with tears were uncomfortable, so she took a tissue to wipe her tears and blew her nose, cleared her throat and opened her eyes wide to pretend to be calm, "Next what to do?"

"Hmm..." Min Jun wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Give them some time."

Yang Yinxi had no idea and could only nod.

Then they stopped talking and listened silently to the sound outside through the thin doors and windows-the fourth brother-in-law was drunk and sang at the top of his voice, the sisters-in-law and aunts cleaned up while laughing, chatting in dialect from time to time, The children were rushed to take a bath by their parents, and the whole building was shaken as they thumped and yelled, making people disturbed.Mom went downstairs to help, and the voice of talking with others was normal, as if she didn't take what happened just now to her heart...

Yang Yinxi does not breathe a sigh of relief.

Her mind was still full of the silent figure of her mother hunched over and covering her face.

More than half an hour later, the dining table and kitchen were cleaned up, and the children were driven to sleep one after another. The adults took turns to wash up in the two bathrooms, and went back to their rooms. The downstairs was quiet.

"Let's go." Min Jun had already prepared a change of clothes, "Take a shower and go to bed early."

Yang Yinxi took the clothes, bit her lips and said, "I'll go by myself, you wait in the room first."

There are two bathrooms. One is on the first floor. The water heater is not very good. It is usually used by elders who are used to boiling water for bathing. The cousins ​​and sisters-in-law who ordered it use it.

Yang Yinxi and Min Jun always get bored and forget the time, always letting others who are used to going to bed early, and finally being urged by their mother to take a bath.

There is only one bathroom. In order to dissipate heat and avoid gas poisoning, it is independently built on the other side of the stairs, and the kitchen is upstairs and downstairs.Yang Yinxi felt that walking through the stairs and crossing the door was two worlds. On the one hand, there were faint voices talking, and the lights were brightly lit, and on the other hand, it was so dark and quiet that only insects were chirping. A small stool to accompany outside.

Mom won't rush them today, probably already closed the door and ready to go to bed.

But Yang Yinxi was afraid that her mother would see them both inseparable after taking a bath.

"Okay." Min Jun, who was considerate and careful, naturally understood what she had considered, and handed her the clothes, "Turn on the light and walk slowly, be careful not to knock it."

Yang Yinxi nodded, and walked out with her clothes in her arms.

The sister-in-law was the last one to take a bath, and she left a small lamp for them. Yang Yinxi could vaguely see the ground, and it shouldn't be too much trouble to walk over. However, when she walked to the door of her parents' room, she saw the door leaking The light in the room couldn't help but stop, pricking up its ears to secretly listen to the sound inside, and walked away sadly after hearing nothing for half a minute.

Yang Yinxi took a shower as quickly as possible.

After getting dressed and not even putting on her coat, she went back to the room trembling. Min Jun covered her with a blanket as if she had been prepared, rolled it up and kneaded it twice, skillfully.

Being pushed towards the bed, Yang Yinxi inexplicably remembered the stewed pork rolls that Min Jun made, and she rolled them up in such a smooth way, and threw them on the plate.

Now it's time to change the skin into a quilt, turn the meat into her, and throw it on the bed instead...

"How about you make meat rolls?" Yang Yinxi complained softly, being poked into a smile by her own brain hole.

Min Jun snorted softly, pulled the quilt to cover her up, "Stew it first to keep warm, I'll eat it later."

"Haha." Yang Yinxi smiled, finally relaxing her depressed mood.

Min Jun twirled the quilt for her and went out to take a bath. Yang Yinxi was so suffocated that she broke free from the quilt and took her mobile phone to find a funny TV series, watching while waiting for Min Jun.Maybe it's because there are too many boring things, or maybe it's because she can't enjoy watching comedy alone, she didn't laugh much the whole time, at most she didn't feel bored because of the smooth movie plot.

Until the bullet screen suddenly said, "Tell a ghost story, watch the progress bar", she exited the full screen, and found that Min Jun had gone for 45 minutes, one episode.

Min Jun is usually not so late, is she?

Yang Yinxi recalled a series of gas poisoning, shock news in the bathroom, jumped out of bed, put on her clothes and ran outside.She went to the bathroom, heard the sound of dripping water and slight movements made by people, she relaxed a little, and carefully knocked on the door, "Min Jun?"

"Hey." Min Jun agreed.

Yang Yinxi sighed, "So long?"

"It's almost ready, it's windy, go back to your room and wait."

Looking at the time on her phone, Yang Yinxi felt that her mother was unlikely to leave the room, so she moved a small stool to sit down regardless of the ventilation and cold, "I'll wait for you."

Min Jun let out a "huh".

Yang Yinxi turned on the next episode of the TV series. She didn't see the opening song, but she saw Min Jun with a towel on her head coming out, her whole body was wet.She raised her mouth and put the prepared clothes on Min Jun, "Don't catch a cold." "Huh?" Min Jun looked down at the down jacket that reached down to her calves, "Why did you take this out?"

The weather these days is good, although the temperature difference is large, the daytime is warm just right, and the night is not too cold to be unbearable. The thick clothes that Yang Yinxi and Min Jun carry are almost useless, and they are pressed at the bottom of the box and never taken out. .

Yang Yinxi felt guilty, "Uh, it's cold."

"to be frank."

"I'm afraid you'll faint in the shower. This dress will cover you up so you won't get naked."

"..."

Facing Min Jun's speechless expression, Yang Yinxi smiled shamelessly, "Be smart." Min Jun said with dignity, "Be smart."

They went back to the room with light movements. Min Jun had short hair and washed it every day. Yang Yinxi took a hair dryer to help dry it as usual.She adjusted the temperature and was about to go around behind Min Jun, but was stopped by her waist, she lowered her head in surprise, "Huh?"

Min Jun raised her eyes, stood up with a smile and raised her head to peck lightly on her lips, "Let's blow it face to face."

Yang Yinxi was dumbfounded.

She was standing and Min Jun was sitting, not facing each other, but clearly... facing her chest.

"Okay." Min Jun looked up at her and said softly.

Yang Yinxi bit the bullet and agreed, "Oh."

Drying my hair this time was particularly frustrating.

Yang Yinxi has to be careful not to blow her hair too hard, but also beware of Min Jun's lingering hand below her.With her still hot body temperature and dripping water, Min Jun caressed her fingertips and squeezed them lightly. Finally, she circled her tightly and locked her tightly. She pressed against her heart and murmured, "Xiaoxi."

"Huh?" Yang Yinxi rubbed Min Jun's hot hair.

Min Jun didn't speak again.

Yang Yinxi thought about Min Jun because she felt bad about what she confessed to her parents today, and she didn't know how to speak, so she silently pointed out that she had combed Min Jun's hair.

Min Jun suddenly lowered her hands and let go of her embrace, staring fixedly at her.

Yang Yinxi felt something was wrong, put on the hair dryer, sat down and squeezed Min Jun's hand and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm leaving tomorrow." Min Jun said calmly.

Yang Yinxi was taken aback.

"My grandpa still thinks it's shameful for me to celebrate the New Year outside." Min Jun smiled helplessly, "Just now I took so long to take a bath because I received a call urging me to go home."

Yang Yinxi nodded in a daze, "Okay, then...how?"

"Tomorrow, stop the bus on the way to K City, and then fly back."

"Have you bought the plane ticket?"

"Buy it later, the air ticket from City K to City S is not tight."

Yang Yinxi remained expressionless, "I don't believe it."

"I'm really not nervous, I have a ticket," Min Jun showed the information on his phone, "Look..."

"I don't believe you were called back by grandpa." Yang Yinxi blurted out with a fever in his head.

Min Jun was not surprised, "You can ask my brother."

"I don't ask." Yang Yinxi got excited and ignored everything, and said sharply, "You usually take a bath for 15 minutes, and the remaining half hour is enough for you to go to my parents' room to talk, and then call you Brother made a confession."

Only then did Min Jun show a look of astonishment, "You..."

"Don't go." Yang Yinxi rushed over and hugged Min Jun tightly.

Min Jun patted her head, "Why are you sometimes smart and sometimes confused? No one will be happy if I stay here."

"Then..." Yang Yinxi bit her lip, "Buy two air tickets, and I'll go with you."
