after scraping a customer's car

After leaving the city, Shenci set the speed of the car at 60 yards, turned on the light music, and drove in a very relaxed mood.

An hour later, Shen Ci adjusted the speed to a slower speed, and the car slowly drove towards a small road. After a while, a small forest appeared, and then a bungalow appeared.

The car stopped at the door of the bungalow. He got out of the car and carried the gift. The door was open, and Shen Ci walked in directly.

In the small courtyard, a man wearing a big padded jacket was pasting Spring Festival couplets with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, while a man also wearing a padded jacket beside him was helping.

"Second Uncle." Shen Ci said.

The two turned their heads at the same time, and the man who was helping said happily, "Xiaoci, you're here."

"Well, come and eat." Shen Ci put down the gift, "I miss Uncle Qiang's cooking."

The man with a cigarette in his mouth was happy, "I'll make it for you after I finish posting the Spring Festival couplets." After he pasted the blessing, he turned to look at Shen Ci, "Come whenever you come, you don't need to take things every time."

"I didn't take anything, just some food and drink." Shen Ci said.

Shen Lin looked at it and said, "Li Wenqiang, Xiao Ci bought you good wine and cigarettes for you, all of which are expensive." He looked at Shen Ci, feeling a little helpless, "I'm telling him to quit smoking and drinking , you have brought so much, it’s over, I don’t think you can quit in a while.”

Shen Ci was quite embarrassed, and joked, "Then I'll take them all away later."

"It's okay," Li Wenqiang said with a smile, "I can still live to 99 if I smoke and drink, so don't worry." After speaking, he leaned into Shen Lin's ear and said in a calm voice, "I can't wilt there either."

Shen Lin clicked his tongue, frowned, raised his foot and kicked, then raised his chin, "Hurry up and post your couplet, Xiaoci and I are going back to the room."

Shen Ci followed Shen Lin into the house, and Li Wenqiang put away the things Shen Ci brought, put a cigarette in his mouth, hummed a song, and continued to post Spring Festival couplets.

There was a stove in the room, Shen Lin told Shen Ci to sit down, he turned on the stove, and boiled water to make tea.

"How are you doing?" Shen Lin asked.

"Just like that, it's neither good nor bad." Shen Ci asked, "What about you, Uncle?"

"I, you saw it too, it's very good." Shen Lin said and handed him a cup of tea.

Shen Ci took it with both hands, held it in the palm of his hand, and smiled lightly. He knew that Li Wenqiang spoiled his second uncle to heaven, so it was just a polite question to ask.

The two sat by the stove and talked while drinking tea.

"By the way, there is also the candied haws made by that idiot Li Wenqiang," Shen Lin said, and went to get the candied haws for Shen Ci.

Shen Ci smiled.

Shen Lin realized that he was swearing, and frowned, "It's really close to the vermilion, the red is close to the ink, and the black is black. I have been with Li Wenqiang for a long time, and I have been assimilated by him."

As soon as the words fell, Li Wenqiang's voice came from outside, "Honey, do you want to eat pork head meat?"

Shen Lin was speechless, "What pig's head meat? Don't disturb me talking to Xiao Ci." Then he asked Shen Ci, "Do you want to eat pig's head meat?"

Shen Ci nodded, "Okay, I still want to eat pig's trotters made by Uncle Qiang."

"I'll let him do it." Shen Lin got up and told Li Wenqiang to go.

Shen Ci looked around, the house was very warm and looked like home, his eyes turned to the candied haws in his hand, he took a bite, it was so sweet.

Suddenly remembering that Song Yan was here, Shen Ci took out his mobile phone and clicked on WeChat to check. The message record was from yesterday. He casually flipped through the message record and put it back in his pocket.

In the kitchen, Li Wenqiang listened to Shen Lin's report of the name of the dish, and said: "Daughter-in-law, let's see, your husband, I will definitely make you and Xiaoci CD."

Shen Lin said angrily: "I'm telling you, Xiaoci is here, don't be so fucking serious when you talk."

Li Wenqiang nodded and bowed, "I obey my daughter-in-law!"

Shen Lin curled his lips into a smile, Li Wenqiang's heart melted, and he hurriedly started working on lunch.

Shen Lin went back to the room, and Shen Ci sat there eating candied haws and watching the dumpling stuffing.

"Second uncle, what kind of stuffing is this?" Shen Ci smelled it, "It smells so good."

"It's stuffed with radish and meat." Shen Lin said, "You insisted on it." He walked over, "How about I make noodles and let's make something to eat?"

"Okay," Shen Ci said, "I'm hungry for dumplings."

The two did what they said, washed their hands, rolled out the dough and started wrapping.

Li Wenqiang stewed the elbow and walked in from the kitchen, "Leave that, let me make it."

"Who will do the cooking when you make dumplings?" Shen Lin said while rolling out the dumplings.

Li Wenqiang said: "I'm stewing the elbows. I've washed and cut all the other dishes. When the elbows are cooked, I'll fry them in the wok. It's only ten o'clock. Don't worry." He sat down and let Shen Lin Sitting next to Shen Ciqian.

In fact, Shen Ci doesn't know how to make dumplings, so he can help knead the dough.

"Xiaoci, I don't need you here, just sit and talk with me." Shen Lin said.

"Yes, Xiao Ci, just sit there and talk with your second uncle." Li Wenqiang said and looked at Shen Lin, "You sit there with Xiao Ci, and I can do it by myself."

Shen Lin scoffed, "Two people are always faster than one."

Li Wenqiang's brows were filled with joy, knowing that his family's Shen Lin loves him, and he suddenly felt very upset.

Shen Ci looked at the two of them flirting, and couldn't help laughing. After laughing, he became silent again, and seemed to be envious again.

"I'm also learning to make two wraps, don't think my wraps are ugly." He was really bored sitting there, and said with a dough in his hand.

"Okay, if you want to make a bag, you can make a bag." Shen Lin said, "I didn't know anything from the beginning, but now I can make a meal by myself."

Li Wenqiang immediately said: "I won't let your second uncle cook, as long as I have me, but he won't listen." He talked to Shen Ci about the first time Shen Lin was cooking when oil was splashed on his hands, and his heart ached. Son, Shen Lin felt tired of hearing this.

Li Wenqiang has a carefree temper, like a fool, and can chat with the cold Shen Ci for hours.

After the dumplings were made and a few dishes were cooked neatly, their lunch began.

"Sit down, I'll set off firecrackers." Li Wenqiang lit a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and went outside with [-] firecrackers.

The sound of crackling firecrackers sounded, and the lunch began.

"Xiao Ci, how is your grandfather doing?" As the meal drew to a close, Shen Lin hesitated and opened his mouth.

"Second Uncle, don't worry, Grandpa is fine." Shen Ci said.

Shen Lin nodded and said, "That's good."

This topic is over, and the meal is over. Shen Ci sat for a while and left. Before leaving, Li Wenqiang moved a lot of things to his car, including bacon, sausage, cured fish, native eggs, salted duck eggs, potatoes, and cabbage. , green onions, ginger, and killed two big roosters.

Shen Ci bid farewell to the two of them, and then drove away.

Li Wenqiang and Shen Lin entered the house, and as soon as they entered the house, Shen Lin was pressed against the door frame by Li Wenqiang and kissed.

Shen Lin opened his mouth to respond, the two kissed passionately for an unknown amount of time, he felt a little out of breath, and pushed Li Wenqiang.

Li Wenqiang understood, let go of him, licked his lips a little unsatisfactorily, and said, "I really want to hold you every day and never let go."

Shen Lin smiled.

Li Wenqiang's eyes were shining brightly, he just loved to see Shen Lin smile.

Shen Lin said: "Let's make dumplings, and then prepare the New Year's Eve dinner."

Li Wenqiang's eyes were gentle, "Okay." He opened his mouth, with some words stuck in his throat, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Shen Lin left the Shen family's gold and silver mountains and came to live with him, a poor farmer. Li Wenqiang felt that he must have accumulated virtue in his previous life, in exchange for such a fool to elope with him in this life.

While Song Yan was chopping the stuffing, Song Lu washed the dishes that should be prepared for the evening. She started kneading the noodles, and the siblings made dumplings together.

After making the dumplings, Song Yan checked the time. Before four o'clock, he clicked on WeChat. There was still no movement on Shen Ci's side. After thinking for a while, he sent two messages to Shen Ci.

The first is to wish him a happy new year, and the second is to wish him a happy birthday.

At this moment, Shen Ci was being reprimanded by his grandfather at the Shen family villa. The reason was that he brought back something given by his second uncle to the Shen family villa, and said that it was given by his second uncle.

"You really want to imitate that unfilial son?" Mr. Shen's face was livid with anger, and he stared at Shen Ci.

"Throw away all his things!" Mr. Shen kicked away the things in front of him, like a manic old man, his face flushed with anger.

The native eggs and salted duck eggs were broken a lot, and the potatoes, scallions and ginger were scattered all over the floor.

Shen Ci lowered his eyelashes and looked at the mess of the place, he didn't seem unhappy, but he couldn't figure it out at all. He raised his eyes and looked at his grandfather suspiciously. It wasn't until the old man finished his anger that he took a long time to think about it. Asked the question, "Grandpa, just because my second uncle is with a man, you don't even care about the relationship between father and son?"

All of a sudden, old man Shen's whole face twisted up, he was in a daze, and after about a few seconds, he returned to his angry look.

"Grandpa..." Shen Ci stared at the angry old man in front of him, "I'm sorry, I like men too."

Mr. Shen's expression suddenly changed again, first he was angry, then he was bewildered, and finally he became calm like a pool of still water.

After a long silence, old man Shen said with trembling lips, "Grandpa and the man you like."

There was another long and sour silence. Shen Ci moved his lips and said softly, "The two cannot be confused at all. Grandpa, you know, I can't live without you..."

Without you, I would really lose my home.

Master Shen seemed to tremble a bit, and after a while, he said reproachfully: "None of you will let me, an old man, feel happy..."

On this New Year's Eve, the Shen family's reunion dinner was lifeless, and they all dispersed after eating.

Shen Ci went back to his residence, looking at the empty and lifeless room, the only remaining memories about his parents suddenly flashed in his mind.

Just thinking about it for a while, Shen Ci felt a throbbing pain all over his body.

There were fireworks in the sky in the distance between the buildings outside the window and the sound of firecrackers. Shen Ci curled up in the dark room.

The sudden ringing of an incoming call brought light into the dark room, Shen Ci ignored it, but the phone kept ringing.

After ringing for a while, I heard that the room was dark again, but the next moment the phone vibrated a few times, it was WeChat, and then an incoming call rang.

Shen Ci finally reacted, he reached for the phone, it was Song Yan calling.

After pressing the connect button, Song Yan's voice came from over there, "You finally answered the phone..." He spoke like a fool, and said in a loud voice: "Song Yan is here to wish Shen Ci Happy New Year, peace and joy, everything goes smoothly, and I wish Shen Ci a happy birthday!"

Shen Ci was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Song Yan said again in a foolish manner, "Well... have you eaten cake today?"

Shen Ci was slightly taken aback, and said, "No."

"...Oh," Song Yan blinked, looked at the sky outside, and then sighed stupidly, "The fireworks outside are so beautiful."

Shen Ci turned his head to look out the window, and gave a faint "hmm".

Then both of them fell silent. For some reason, the atmosphere seemed a little inexplicably ambiguous.

Song Yan's heart was beating violently, he was scratching his head, Shen Ci didn't speak, and he was even more nervous and at a loss.

"Anything else?"

Hearing this, Shen Ci wanted to hang up the phone, Song Yan immediately said: "That..." He started, then hesitated, "I... I'm not sleepy... I don't know what's going on... Just... Just Thinking about... thinking about..."

meet you.

"I'm very unhappy tonight. I had trouble with my grandpa. I lost my parents a long time ago. The person I have loved for almost ten years is getting married. In fact, I am very lonely and have many sad things. I want to find Personally confide, but after thinking about it, I don’t want to get in trouble with anyone after the Chinese New Year..." Shen Ci choked up uncontrollably.

Song Yanteng sat up from the bed, dressed in a hurry, left the bedroom and went straight out of the house, turned back in a few seconds, took the small cake he bought, and the dumplings he made, and limped like crazy He turned and ran out of the house.
