a protracted war

On June 6, the moderate rain turned sunny.

In the morning I woke up to the intermittent whining music from outside.

It's so strange, the rain outside is already so loud, why is Xiaojie's shrill sound of playing the saxophone more clear?I could not understand.

My dad has already prepared breakfast. A bowl of attractive-looking noodles is topped with an attractive fried egg. The egg is fried into a heart shape.

My mother told me that my father found the love frying pan for fried eggs when he went to the supermarket two days ago. The pan was on sale at the time, and there were many young people around it. It's a lot of money but it's worth it to bring simple happiness to those you like.

Of course, my dad also agrees with the consumption philosophy of the eloquent salesman.

I took a picture of the heart-shaped egg and sent it to Yi Yi.

Yi Yi sent me three question marks, and then asked me if I fried the eggs.

I told him my dad did it.

Yi also praised: "Uncle really has a zest for life."

I said, "I thought so too."

Yi Yi asked me again: "What time are you coming?"

I thought for a while and told him, "Is it okay after lunch?"

Yi Yi said, "Can't you come over later?"

I asked: "Why?"

Yi Yi: "...I can't wait to see you... We haven't seen each other for four days."

I couldn't help laughing: "You are very familiar with being coquettish now."

Yi Yi said, "Why don't you come over later?"

I said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

After breakfast, I told my parents that I was going to Yi Yi.

My dad said: "It's raining so much, how are you going?"

I said, "It's okay, I'll drive there, his house is not far away, no trouble."

My mother said to my father: "Don't worry about him, young people have nothing to fear when they fall in love."

My dad said, "Then why don't you let him come to our house."

I smiled and said, "Yi also came to our house, don't say he is uncomfortable, you two are also uncomfortable?"

My mother said: "It's okay, let's go, the road is not easy to walk when it's raining, so be careful."

I said: "Well, I see, you and Dad are the same, don't go out when it rains, watch TV at home, play chess, embroider and embroider cross-stitch."

My mother waved her hand: "All right, all right, your dad and I know."

After more than 40 minutes, I arrived in front of Yi Yi's house. I rang the doorbell, and it was Yi Jun who opened the door.

I was a little surprised, I thought it was just me and Yi Yi today.

After entering the door, Yi Yi came out of the master bedroom. He came up and stroked my hair, and said, "It's okay, it's not wet."

I pointed to the door and said, "I brought an umbrella, how can I get wet."

Yi Yi asked me again: "Is it cold? Still wearing short sleeves."

I smiled: "It's not cold, although it's raining, the temperature hasn't dropped much."

Yi Jun rubbed his arms: "You two are so tired, I have goosebumps all over the floor."

After speaking, he looked at his brother again: "I also wear short sleeves, brother, why don't you ask me if I'm cold."

Yi Yi glanced at him casually: "You have thick skin, you don't even need a quilt when you sleep with the air conditioner turned on at 26 degrees."

Yi Jun chuckled, "I got up this morning and covered myself with a quilt, brother, you came over to cover me in the middle of the night, right?"

Yi Yi ignored him, turned around and went to the kitchen and brought out a cup of hot milk for me, saying, "Come here in the rain, let's warm up first."

Yi Jun made a "tsk tsk tsk" sound beside him.

Yi also asked him: "When are you going back? The rain is much lighter."

Yi Jun shouted: "Brother! Where's our brotherhood?! Brother Yang came here and asked for warm milk, but I was going to be driven away by you to face the storm outside."

Yi Yi said: "Mom called me last night to ask me when you went back. She is at home alone, and you should accompany her, and..." Yi Yi just looked at Yi Jun with a smile, but didn't say anything. Go on.

Yi Jun raised his hands: "Okay, okay, I shouldn't be a light bulb, but it's still raining outside, shall I wait until after lunch?"

Yi Jun clasped his hands together, looking pitiful.

I couldn't stand it anymore, and said to Yi Yi: "Let Yi Jun have dinner before leaving, it's not too late to be alone for a while."

Yi Yi glanced at me and then lowered his head wearily, "We only have a few hours of alone time a week."

Yi Jun immediately said: "Thank you Brother Yang! Thank you Brother! I will definitely stay in the room honestly, and I will try my best to minimize the sense of presence, and I will definitely not disturb you!"

Later, Yi Jun went back to his room, and Yi Yi and I sat side by side on the sofa.

Even if I didn't turn my head, I could still feel that Yi Yi was looking at me all the time, his eyes seemed to be warm, and my face was scorched.

I coughed lightly and suggested, "How about we watch a movie?"

Yi Yi said, "Is there anything you want to see?"

I shook my head and said frankly, "I rarely watch movies."

Yi Yi said, "Then let's just look at one."

Yi Yi searched the Internet for movies with relatively high ratings, and finally we watched "The Shawshank Redemption". Yi Yi seemed to have seen this movie, but he didn't say it out of consideration for my feelings.

I have heard of this movie many times, but I have never watched it once. I am a boring person. Apart from the step-by-step work, the rest of my leisure time is to browse Moments and Weibo.

Before watching the movie, Yi Yi went to cut a plate of fruit, and the beautiful arrangement seemed familiar.

Yi Yi told me: "This kind of plate arrangement was taught to me by Yi Jun's mother."

I nodded and said, "It's so beautiful."

By the time the movie was finished, the rain outside had almost stopped.

Yi Yi read it again and seemed to be touched a lot, and said earnestly: "No one is your salvation, only you can redeem yourself."

I nodded.

Yi Yi stroked my hair, stood up and said, "It's getting late, I'm going to cook, can I eat pasta?"

I nodded and said with a smile, "It's all right, you can come here however convenient you are."

Me: "Shall I come together? Sitting alone is boring."

Yi Yi didn't refuse: "Okay, you help wash the onion, ginger and garlic."

I said yes.

The kitchen of Yi Yi’s home is not very big. While I was washing vegetables, Yi Yi was cooking pasta on the side. I could touch Yi Yi’s shoulders with a slight movement. This kind of not-so-spacious kitchen makes people feel very warm.

After washing all the messy materials needed one by one, I bumped Yi Yi's shoulder and asked him, "Do you want to cut it?"

Yi Yi glanced at me suspiciously: "You will?"

I was very unconvinced and said: "Is there anything wrong with cutting vegetables? If the knife is up and down, it will be over."

Yi Yi said, "That's me. If you don't cut onions and green peppers well, it's easy to burn your eyes."

Hearing what Yi Yi said, I also think it's better to forget it, it's better not to be a hero for a while, if it's really hot later, it's really not worth the candle.

Yi Yi's action of chopping vegetables is very crisp and neat, and it looks like he cooks often.

I asked him, "Do you often cook at home?"

Yi Yi kept moving his hands, and said, "Fortunately, when it's too late, the shops outside are closed, so I can only do it myself, and I have to make ends meet."

I asked again: "Who did you learn to cook from?"

Yi Yi: "I followed the recipes on the Internet. At the beginning, I was not sure about the amount of salt, monosodium glutamate, etc. I even bought an electronic scale. Now that I make more, it's much better."

I looked at Yi Yi: "You are really a serious person."

Yi Yi put all the cut things in small dishes, and looked at me with a smile: "Can't you be serious?"

I laughed too: "Of course."

When Yi Yi was frying the pasta ingredients in the wok, he said to me: "Go out and wait, the oily smoke is heavy, don't smell like smoke."

I stood next to Yi Yi, and without thinking too much, I said, "Okay, I'll sit in the living room."

I don't really think the oily smoke is too much, but I feel that since I can't help in the kitchen, I don't want to get in the way.

The range hood was ringing in the kitchen, and I couldn't hear anything outside. When I got out of the kitchen and went to the living room, I heard the sound of the guitar.

Occasionally, Yi Jun would sing a few lines along with the melody.

I haven't heard the song he played, but I was a little surprised that it sounded like a folk song. Hasn't Yi Jun always followed the rock path?

Later, the guitar sound in his room stopped, and I heard him talking on the phone again, the voice was not low, but I didn't want to listen to it on purpose, so I picked up the phone and played a few games.

When Yi Yi brought out the pasta for each person, I noticed that my portion of pasta was arranged in the shape of a heart.

Yi Jun has sharp eyes, and before I had time to say anything, he bluffed and said, "Aren't you two so nasty!"

Yi Jun: "Look at me, I'm single and easy to bully!"

Yi Yi said proudly: "Then you should find one of me quickly, and if you find one, I won't bully you."

Yi Jun lowered his head, and poked the onion in the noodles with a fork as if venting his anger, "Hmph, I'm so handsome, it's not a matter of time to find it."

Yi Yi sat next to me, I smiled at him, then leaned into his ear and said, "Thank you, I have received your kindness in return."

Yi Yi also said in my ear: "You're welcome." The simple three words seemed to grow claws, scratching my ears very itchy.

After dinner, the rain stopped completely.

Yi Jun was sent back to his mother by Yi Yi.

The sunny weather after the rain was very comfortable, and I lay on the sofa and yawned.

Yi also asked me if I wanted to take a nap.

I wanted to shake my head at first, but then I couldn't resist the sleepiness, so I nodded my head inadvertently.

Totally sleepy.

Yi Yi said, "I don't have a guest room here, so go to my room and sleep for a while."

I said, "Together?" Or else I would feel guilty and fall asleep to the rare alone time.

Yi Yi said, "Okay, you can go in and sleep."

I hesitated and asked, "Isn't your bed a double bed?"

Yi also didn't understand, so he said, "For both of you, what's wrong?"

I said, "That's perfectly fine for the two of us to be together."

Yi Yi turned his face away: "Farewell, I'll just lie down on the sofa."

Me: "It's not that I haven't slept together, you forgot when you were at the resort?"

Yi Yi said with a blushing face, "The resort is not my territory, so I can only show love and stop showing courtesy. Now that I'm at my house, it's hard for me to guarantee that I won't get caught off guard."

I finally understood, and I let out a long "oh~".

But it may be because the temperature is so pleasant today, we both fell asleep together, and when we woke up, we happened to have a meal, and then we went out for dinner, and went for a walk in the park in the community for a while, watching a couple Young lovers are led away by a Samoyed; old men are playing diabolo and spinning tops; old ladies are practicing Tai Chi and sword dancing; uncles and aunts are running wild.

At the end of the month, Yi Yi and I stood under an unknown tree with luxuriant foliage in a hidden location. He kissed my lips and forehead, and then we said goodbye and went back to our respective homes.
