Looking up at the stars in 1946

Qi Si lay on his back on the kang.He has relieved his desire once and changed to another pair of obscene pants.Now his mind is clear, and he is replaying the bits and pieces between him and Qi Yishui in these years.He remembered Qi Yishui's strange illness when he was 15 years old and Qi Yishui's fear of facing Qi Yishan when he visited Qi Yishui. At that time, he still laughed at Qi Yishui in his heart Pause... Now that I think about it, my chest feels a little dull.He remembered Qi Yishui's kindness to him when he was young, and regretted it for a while.He also remembered that Qi Yishui's body had never recovered from that time, and he had to lie down on the bed every now and then, and he became more introverted, and he couldn't easily see strangers.Looking at it now, nine out of ten it was thanks to Qi Yishan.

Master Qi got angry once because of Qi Yishui's bad temper, and reprimanded Qi Yishui's mother-in-law, but he still ignored Qi Yishui. Two, he is not in a hurry.

At that time, Qi Si had already shown his interest and ability in the family business. Under the leadership of the housekeeper Lao Li, he began to inspect the fields of the village and press for rent, and occasionally followed Master Qi to the county to discuss business. Leaving Qi Yishui behind, it was rare for him to think of such a person, who would sit in Qi Yishui's house like a superficial touch, and leave without saying a word.Looking back on Qi Yishui's voice and smile at that time, it was all a blur without exception.

The impact last night was too great, and Qisi felt a little sleepy early in the morning, and didn't feel like eating breakfast.The servants knew Qi Si's temper, so they didn't dare to ask any more questions, they cleaned up the pants on the ground and left.

Not long after, the news that Qi Si hadn't eaten in the morning soon reached his mother, Sun Meiniang.

Sun Meiniang was one of the two wives that Master Qi married when Tang Peilian was pregnant. Because Qi Si was born a few days later than Qi Yishui, she became the third mistress.This is a very capable woman, and she is also pretty, but unfortunately, her fate was not good. When she was walking on the road in the past two decades, she bumped into Master Qi. Married him and made him a concubine.Fortunately, she gave birth to a good son, and the eldest wife, Tang Peilian, is a caretaker, and there are no parents-in-law in the family, so she doesn't have to be angry.Master Qi is a wild man, so he rarely stays at home, and Sun Meiniang is too lazy to look after him.The only thing she cares about now is Qi Siyi.When Sun Meiniang heard that Qi Si was not feeling well, she rushed to Qi Si's house after a hasty breakfast.

Qi Si was still lying on the bed.When Sun Meiniang saw it, she felt a little anxious.Qi Si has good teeth and mouth since he was a child, he eats delicious food, and hardly gets sick. Now that he is suddenly lying on the bed in broad daylight, can a mother's heart not jump "chug"?

Sun Meiniang walked quickly towards Qisi on tiptoe, and said, "Ah Si, what's the matter with you? What's wrong with you? Tell your mother about it."

Seeing his mother coming, Qi Si didn't want to say anything more, so he just replied: "I'm fine, I'm just a little lazy and want to lie down."

Only then did Sun Meiniang feel relieved, and said: "Then you have to eat! If there is anything you want to eat, mother will let Chen Ma do it now."

"No need, I have no appetite." Qi Si shook his head.

Sun Meiniang immediately realized that Qi Si had something on her mind, she lowered her voice and asked, "Ah Si, do you...do you have anything to worry about? Tell your mother about it."

Qi Si looked at his mother with deep eyes, how could he speak about such a thing?The more people know, the more danger of exposure the secret will be.That bastard in Qi Yishan doesn't matter, but what about Qi Yishui?Qi Si couldn't imagine how Qi Yishui would survive after this scandal of incest was exposed?Qi Si could only choose to remain silent.

Sun Meiniang saw that Qi Si didn't want to say more, and it would be a waste of effort to force her, so she told Qi Si to remember to eat on time, and she must say something when she was not feeling well, and then she left.

Qi Si's heart was in a mess, he kept cutting, and his reasoning was still in chaos.I don't know how long he hesitated, and finally got off the Kang, put on his clothes and went out.

Qi Si decided to visit Qi Yishui first.The scene of last night was vivid in his memory, Qi Si was inexplicably flustered on the way to Qi Yishui's house.At first, Qi Si thought it was just his own illusion, until he entered the room and saw Qi Yishui, Qi Si didn't know what he was flustered about - Qi Yishui looks so attractive!

Qi Yishui's eyebrows and eyes resembled his aunt's seven times, so she was a little bit feminine, but this kind of femininity was not completely powdery, but a witty in her delicate beauty, which made people unable to turn around after seeing her. Eye-opening kind.Qi Yishui was a little chubby when he was a child, and this temperament was not obvious. Now that he has grown up, and lost several catties due to illness, his chin has become sharper, and his eyes have become larger.

Qi Yishui was sitting on the kang drinking a bowl of millet porridge, when he saw Qi Si's eyes light up, he was overjoyed: "Ah Si, you are here!"

Qi Si responded, and sat on the kang, seeing Qi Yishui eating only a bowl of millet porridge and two small dishes, frowned, and asked, "Why do you eat so little?" share concerns.

Qi Yishui was a little flattered, because Qi Si hadn't said these commonplace things to him for many years.But he replied honestly: "I don't have much appetite, I will eat something else when my appetite improves. Have you eaten yet?"

Just as Qi Si finished nodding, his stomach let out a growl.

The air was suddenly awkward.Qi said without changing his expression, "I ate a little bit in the morning."

Qi Yishui had a suppressed smile on his face, lips as soft as red silk turned up slightly, and his eyes were curved.Qi Si turned his face away.Qi Yishui was afraid that Qi Si would be angry, so he quickly changed the subject:

"I heard that Dad took you to do business. How are you doing? Is it going well?"

Qi Si replied: "That's it, it's nothing."

Qi Yishui nodded, enviously said: "Si is always capable, unlike me..."

Qi Si interrupted him: "What's the matter? When you recover, I'll take you with me."

Qi Yishui smiled, feeling a little lonely.Qi Si saw his hands holding the bowls and chopsticks, the fingers were slender, and there were blue blood vessels clearly winding on the wrists.His complexion took on a sickly whiteness in the sun.

"Are you feeling better?" Qi Si asked with a little shame on his face.

"Okay, it's much better." Qi Yishui said, subconsciously straightening his clothes, "I've been taking medicine." He pointed to the box on the cabinet, which meant that the pills were put there.

"How long have you been eating?" Qi Si asked.

"It's been a while. At first, it was decocted herbs to drink. Later, later, I found it troublesome, so I asked the doctor to make pills and send them over."

"Has Qi Yishan visited you?" Qi Si asked unexpectedly.

There were two blushes on Qi Yishui's face, I don't know why Qi Si suddenly asked about this, and said stammeringly: "Yes, yes, do you want to find him?"

Qi Si was silent for a while, and then said: "No, I'll just ask casually."

The two brothers chatted for a while, Qi Si asked Qi Yishui to take good care of himself before leaving.Qi Yishui was so happy that he jumped off the kang and opened the cabinet, saying that he must find some rare things for Qi Si.

For a moment, Qi Si seemed to see Qi Yishui from ten years ago again, like a little vole who likes to run around with Qi Si.At that time, although Qi Yishui had a quiet temperament, he was not ambiguous at all when it was time to hide. He was often responsible for rummaging through the cabinets to find delicious and fun things, while Qi Si was responsible for standing at the door to watch.As soon as the thing was found, the two held hands, quickly found a secret place to hide, and enjoyed it for a while.

The warmth that once existed was reinjected into Qi Si's chest through this memory, and the prejudice, doubts and narrow-mindedness in his heart were melted away.

Qi Si had been brewing for a long time before he said dryly: "Yi Shui, keep it for yourself, I'm leaving!" After saying that, he hurried out without waiting for Qi Yishui's answer.

For Qi Yishui, Qi Si couldn't bear to blame him, but for Qi Yishan, Qi Si was not so soft-hearted.Especially after re-recognizing the allure of Qi Yishui, Qi Si became jealous of Qi Yishan for the first time.Because of this, Qi Si thought for a long time alone, but he still couldn't just let Qi Yishan go.

From the place where Qi Yishan lived, he could get a glimpse of his status in Qi's family - Qi Yishui and Qi Si lived in the front yard with Master Qi, while he lived in the backyard, separated from Tang Peilian's small yard by a wall.

Over the past ten years, the number of times Qi Si has visited Qi Yishan's house can be counted on the fingers of one's fingers.The most recent time was three years ago, Master Qi asked Qi Si to go to the backyard and asked Qi Yishan to go to the front yard to worship the ancestors.Qi Si didn't say hello, just pushed the door open and entered the room.

Qi Yishan’s house has obviously lacked repairs in the past few years. The wallpaper pasted on the windows has turned dark yellow, and the door bolts are also rusted. An oil lamp with a speck of kerosene in it.There is a piano cabinet on the kang, and two thick quilts are stacked on it.

Qi Yishan was not in the room, Qi Si turned around and stepped out of the room, just as he was looking for someone to ask Xia Yishan where he was going, Qi Yishan suddenly appeared from the corner.Seeing Qi Si, he was obviously a little surprised, but soon calmed down, and just said lightly: "What's the matter?"

Qi looked at Qi Yishan expressionlessly from all sides, but he disappeared for a while, and Qiyi Mountain seemed to be a bit taller.Qi Si knew that Qi Yi Shan had paid homage to a boxing master in the village two years ago, and his body was well-trained, with a bit of a hunchback.Qi Yishan was three years older than him, and Qi Si thought that if he confronted head-on, he would definitely lose.But Qi Si is unwilling to back down, he has his principles.

Qi Si said: "Go into the house, I have something to tell you."

Qi Yishan said impatiently: "If you have anything to say, just say it here."

Qi Si walked in on his own, Qi Yi Shan had no choice but to follow.

Qi Si went straight to the point and said, "I saw you enter Yishui's house last night."

Qi Yishan's eyes widened for a moment, staring at Qi Si's face, a rare look of panic appeared on his face, but he soon calmed down.He squinted his eyes and looked at Qi Si, as if thinking about how much Qi Si knew.

"You...didn't sleep that night?"

"I'll follow you to Qi Yishui's house." Qi Si said with a deadpan face, in fact, a fire had already arose in his heart, but at this time, he was usually calmer.Jumping into a rage, that's what a fool would do.

Qi Yishan said, "What do you want?"

Qi Si asked back: "I should be asking you this question."

Qi Yishan said indifferently: "Me? Me, it's what you see."

Qi Si laughed back angrily: "Sure enough, the son of a bitch is capable." Originally, what he wanted to buy was "the son of a livestock", but suddenly realized that he was the same, so he had to change his mind.However, Qi Si regretted this harsh remark, he knew that Qi Yishan's mother was also a poor person.

If it was before, Qi Yishan would have jumped into a rage and wrestled with Qi Si immediately, but now, even though his face was twisted, he still resisted the urge to do something.

Qi Yishan said in a deep voice, "Get out now."

Qi Si was silent for a while, and said: "Qi Yishan, I take back the previous sentence. I want to tell you about Qi Yishui."

Qi Yishan interrupted him: "His business is his business, so leave it alone!"

Qi Si retorted: "You are shameless yourself, don't think that others are like you!"

Qi Yishan glanced at Qi Si, and suddenly said, "You haven't asked Qi Yishui, how do you know that he wants face?"

Qi Si's heart skipped a beat, thinking of a possibility that he had been deliberately ignoring, he felt a little ashamed.Could it be that these two people are actually Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer?

Qi Si walked away holding back his anger.
