It's the seventh year of love
Work related
Those in Gaotang did not come to visit the First Ancient Temple, but to say goodbye.
My heart is a little sour.
"The mage said just now that people live in the world, come and go alone, live and die alone... It sounds really uncomfortable." Wu Xie was very sad.If he is allowed to live without Zhang Qiling at this moment, he feels that he cannot do it.Without this person by my side, I can't even find the most suitable breathing frequency.
There is no substitute for suffering and happiness.
If one person's suffering and happiness are all related to another person, if he suffers, he will also suffer; if he is happy, he will also be happy.He was immersed in his obsession with Zhang Qiling, he didn't think there was anything wrong or wrong, he just felt sad.
"Wu Xie." Zhang Qiling saw that he kept his head down and kept silent, and knew that he was thinking of some crooked ways again, so he called out to him, "Although we say we live alone and die alone, we can share both joy and sorrow. This is a husband and wife. .”
Wu Xie slowly raised his head, stared at him blankly, and for a while, grinned an ugly smile: "We are the same."
"En." Zhang Qiling took his hand on the table, and Wu Xie shook it back, still with a silly smile on his face.
【[-]】Touxiang from Lingyin Temple
01.
The story of two years ago is actually very simple, it is a problem that every couple in the world has to face.For most homosexuals, meeting their parents is almost a real tough battle.
Wu Xie graduated from Hangzhou, but was transferred to Beijing after working.In the first two years, he was not used to the wind and sand in Beijing, and the tone of Beijingers' speech, but because there was a Zhang Qiling in Beijing, he forcibly endured it.It's just that every Spring Festival, I always go home to see my parents and visit relatives.
Zhang Qiling never went with him.Wu Xie's parents are in Hangzhou, so they can be regarded as people with face.He is the eldest son and the only son. It is not good to bring a man home after the Chinese New Year.Wu Xie doesn't argue with him either. Every Spring Festival is a farewell to him, and he can only rely on phone calls and text messages to maintain the missing of each other.
In the third year, Wu Xie suddenly made a fuss, holding up two air tickets and handing them to Zhang Qiling.The man looked up at him with rejection written all over his face.
Wu Xie said, treat him as my friend and come back after the new year.
In the end Zhang Qiling asked him to take another five days of annual leave, and the two of them staggered their return dates in order not to make Wu Xie's parents suspicious.Wu Xie asked unhappily, if I don't take annual leave, the company will send me money, how do you compensate?
Zhang Qiling boldly swiped his pen, and I will supply it to you.
The two brought New Year's goods and gifts to Wu Xie's parents in Beijing, and Wu Xie became nervous when they got on the plane, always feeling that they would be spotted by their parents.
Zhang Qiling asked him, your parents, what kind of people are they?
Wu Xie thought for a long time and said, Dad is a university professor. He taught me a lot when I was a child. I like to play chess and write in the study alone. My mother works in a government agency and knows many people. I am quite busy, and I like to chat with my colleagues about trivial matters in life, about other people's children, and then criticize the old man.
In the end, Wu Xie smiled, little brother, in fact, our family is the most common feminist family in Chinese society.
When he arrived in Hangzhou, Wu Xie took him home by taxi from the airport.
Wu Xie's home is in a community in the old city.The large rusted iron gate, the walls are full of wall-climbing tigers, and the staff at the entrance of the community are chatting with each other in security uniforms.The house inside is a bit old, but it can be seen that it occupies a large area. Looking at it now, it can be regarded as a sky-high price.
The community is very green, with tall and dense street trees, and the cold winter wind, occasionally an old man who is tightly wrapped will pass by them slowly.Wu Xie was terribly cold, so she pushed Zhang Qiling inside.
Still going upstairs, I heard the door of a family "click" and then slowly pushed open.Wu Xie looked up, and carefully poked out a slightly old-fashioned joyful smiling face from inside, Xiao Xie is back!Old man, Xiao Xie is back!
Wu Yiqiong rushed out from the inside in a hurry, and the moment he saw Zhang Qiling, his eyes froze for a moment.
Zhang Qiling watched Wu Xie bend over to hug the woman with some embarrassment, not missing Father Wu's probing eyes.
Wu Xie let go of his mother, and introduced to his parents, this is my friend, the boss of another department, who usually takes special care of me, grew up abroad, and has no relatives, so I will bring him to our house for the New Year.
Zhang Qiling stiffened unnaturally, and said hello, uncle and aunt.
Seeing that he is a talented person with an extraordinary temperament, Mama Wu has no doubts about him and warmly welcomes them into the house.
Wu Xie took him to visit his bedroom, pointing to the rows of awards on the wall and smiling complacently, brother, you see, I am also very good.Then grabbed Zhang Qiling's cold hands and rubbed them together, don't be afraid.
Finding his casual clothes for him to change into, Wu Xie led him to his father's study, and showed him the words Wu Yiqiong usually wrote, saying, this is Yan Kai, and this is Zhongxing Song; Okay, this is a cold food post; this one is in thin gold style, and it says... It's written...
It is a summer poem post.Wu Yiqiong happily added for him, watching his son introduce his works to outsiders with a little pride.
Wu Xie said again, my brother is from Germany, and his Chinese is good but not idiomatic enough. Dad, why don't you tell him something?So leaving Zhang Qiling alone, he ran to the kitchen to help his mother.
In the evening, the two lived separately as a matter of course. Mother Wu cleaned up Zhang Qiling's guest room and came out. After taking a shower, Wu Xie tucked into the quilt and texted Zhang Qiling.
Brother, is your quilt cold?
not cold.
Remember to turn on the air conditioner, Hangzhou is no better than Beijing in winter, there is no heating.
Ok.
You treat this place as your own home, and you are welcome to use water and electricity.
Your parents are good people.
Of course, otherwise there would be such a good son like me.
Ok.
Brother, why don't we call.
No need to.
Then I will come to you in the middle of the night.
……
That's it.
...don't make a fuss.
Hey hey hey I'm kidding, I'm sure I won't get up in the middle of the night.
Ok.
……
……
Like every Spring Festival before, I imagined the expression and tone of that person when typing text through the phone, and then smiled silly while holding the phone.
02.
The next day was New Year's Eve, and for the first time Zhang Qiling really experienced a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with seniors present.The table was full of dishes, and Wu Yiqiong opened a bottle of red wine. He wanted to pour some for everyone, but Wu Xie stopped him, saying that he would go to Lingyin Temple tonight and drink it. You can't drive without drinking, and then happily praise your mother's craftsmanship.
But no matter how much she poured her into the ecstasy soup, she couldn't make her give up that bit of gossip in a woman's nature.First, he boasted about Zhang Qiling compared to Wu Xie, and then asked, is Xiao Zhang married?
Mom, your question is so stupid, if you get married, will you come to our house to celebrate the New Year?Wu Xie bit her chopsticks and interrupted.
Oh, yes, do you have a girlfriend?
Zhang Qiling was stunned for a moment, then replied, yes.
Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, and Mother Wu showed a surprised expression. That girl is really lucky, she must be excellent, right?
……Well enough.
Can you talk about it in detail?Mother Wu's expression was exactly the same as Wu Xie's, which made Zhang Qiling chuckle.
We... met on the sports field.He is very powerful. When we met for the first time, he didn't have a good impression on me.Very popular and very smart.Disadvantage... probably more jealous.
When Zhang Qiling said the first sentence, Wu Xie knew that he was being plotted against again, so he stepped on his instep under the table and twisted it bit by bit, his whole body was a little hot.
Being jealous means that she cares about you, girls are like this.Mother Wu said with a smile, but she didn't know that Wu Xie was bleeding silently in her heart. Girls are like this, but what about boys?
Mother Wu asked again, why didn't she bring the girl along?
She is on a business trip abroad.Zhang Qiling made up a lie casually and won Wu's mother's unreserved trust.The New Year's Eve and his girlfriend are separated in two places, no wonder they came to Wu Xie.
Wu Xie buried her head and only cared about eating, and let them chat enthusiastically, let's talk, let's talk, it's best that you don't know the truth.
Xiao Xie.After dealing with other people's children, it will naturally be their turn.Did you move?
ah?Wu Xie still had a vegetable in his mouth, and looked up in astonishment.
You can tell at a glance that you don't have a girlfriend yet.
Well, I can't find a girlfriend.Wu Xie swallowed the vegetables, answered fluently, and added in her heart, because I found a boyfriend.
how can that be possible?
blame him.Wu Xie pointed to Zhang Qiling.And the middle-level leaders of the company represented by him maliciously squeezed us low-level employees, so that we didn't have time to look at the big girls at all.
Lying without changing face or heartbeat.
……
After dinner, Wu Xie took the initiative to help his mother wash the dishes, and invited his mother to go to Lingyin Temple to burn incense with him.
Don't go, don't go, there are so many people, I don't bother to move.As expected, she was rejected by her mother.Wu Xie was secretly happy, it was just right not to go, I will take my little brother there.
There are a lot of people burning incense, and the trend is increasing year by year. Many people from other places set off by car in the afternoon.After washing the dishes, Wu Xie walked into the bedroom, and said to Zhang Qiling, brother, I will take you to see a custom in Hangzhou.
Wu Xie rummaged through the closet, handed Zhang Qiling a pair of long johns of her own, and said righteously: The north is different from the south, it will be so cold outside later that you can freeze to death, you put these on.
Zhang Qiling shook his head and refused.Wu Xie stuffed the long johns into his hands, put his hands on his hips, and ordered, put them on.
Shaking his head.
You really don't wear them?
nod.
Wu Xie picked up the hem of Zhang Qiling's coat and went to untie his belt. If he didn't wear it, he had to wear it. This is in Hangzhou, you must listen to me.
……
In the end, Zhang Qiling was forced to wear two pairs of trousers. The long johns were tightly attached to his legs. It was the first time in his life that he wore something like women's stockings, which made him frown.
Wu Xie took out the wool gloves and handed them to him, picked up another bag, and led him out.
Drive to the vicinity of Lingyin Temple, buy tickets, and follow other pilgrims to the burning incense point.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and all the scenery that could be seen were the backs of other people's heads.There are people on the front, back, left, and right. On the long steps, people walk up step by step holding hands in twos and threes.
Brother, are you cold?Wu Xie walked side by side with him, and he stuffed the gloves for Zhang Qiling back into the bag before going out, and wearing an extra pair of trousers still made him feel awkward, although the effect of keeping out the cold was really good.
Wu Xie looked at his red nose and jet-white lips, dragged him to the side, took out a cashmere scarf from the bag like a magic trick, and put it around his neck.
……
Zhang Qiling took a small step back, the scarf around his neck was still held by Wu Xie, and he was instantly strangled.
……
Wu Xie snorted and laughed twice, continued to wrap up the entire scarf, leaned over to help him straighten it up and down, and after making sure that his ears and lips would not be blown by the cold wind, he nodded in satisfaction.He took his hand and put it near his mouth, took two breaths, rubbed it, took another two breaths, rubbed it.
Wu Xie.
Don't move, little brother, you are like this, you dress like this everywhere, and you don't make a sound when you freeze to death.
People around saw their actions with different eyes, some were surprised, some were blessed, and more were contemptuous.
Suddenly I feel a little irritable.
Zhang Qiling forcefully pulled out the hand that Wu Xie held in his palm, and the other party looked over with a look of astonishment and grievance.Zhang Qiling grabbed his hand, put it in his pocket, and signaled him to go forward.
There is no need for irrelevant people to point out the matter between him and Wu Xie.
Wu Xie's hands were also very cold, not much better than his.Zhang Qiling somewhat understood Wu Xie's mood just now, and slowly tightened his ten fingers in the windbreaker pocket with a little heartache.
After a while, Wu Xie came over foolishly and said, brother, your pocket is so warm.
……
There are more people in the place where incense is burned, and everyone is crowded in the main hall to wait quietly, and there are more and more pilgrims waiting in line behind.
If I had to describe it in one word, it would be shoulder to shoulder.
Zhang Qiling stood behind Wu Xie, gently wrapping his arms around his waist.Wu Xie wanted to escape in embarrassment at first, but found that the surrounding space was already filled with crowds, with countless arms piercing in all directions, and Zhang Qiling's concealment of movements was simply not very good.
After waiting for a long time, a firework suddenly exploded in the sky.The crowd burst into cheers, and the team in front of the hall began to move.
Brother, happy new year.Wu Xie leaned in his arms, slowly moving forward with the crowd.
happy New Year.
When burning incense and praying for blessings for a while, remember not to make a wish to the Bodhisattva, otherwise you will come to fulfill the wish, just ask for peace.Wu Xie turned her face and whispered in his ear.
Ok.
If conditions permit, Zhang Qiling will definitely lower his head and kiss that mouth.
Finally it was their turn, Wu Xie knelt on the futon, folded his hands together and held incense, and bowed three times, first asking for the safety of his parents in the coming year, then asking for Zhang Qiling's safety, and finally asking for his own safety.
Be safe no matter what happens.
Wu Xie drove the car back to the parking garage of the community. There were so many people in Lingyin Temple, but when they got home, they found that except for the children who were setting off firecrackers, most of the old people had already fallen asleep.It's like a rushing river, branching all the way down, and finally seeping into the soil silently, disappearing.
There is no underground garage in the old-fashioned community. Fortunately, Wu Xie's mother had a bit of foresight when she bought the house, and bought it together with the garage next to it.Later, everyone became richer, and the newly bought car didn't have to rack their brains outside to fight for parking spaces with other people's homes.
Brother is gone.Wu Xie unbuckled his seat belt, turned off the engine, got out of the car and locked it, took out the bag from the back seat, and waited for him at the garage door.
Wu Xie.Zhang Qiling stood by the car and called him.
Ok?
Zhang Qiling didn't speak any more, watching the man scratching his head suspiciously while slowly walking towards him, reached out to hold him in his arms, and lowered his head to kiss that mouth.Been wanting to do this since just now.
Hmm... Wu Xie looked at him in surprise, and then responded with relief.They exchanged saliva, their tongues entangled, and their noses were full of each other's breath, in the garage of their own home.
The best hope in my heart.
The sound of fireworks outside continued one after another, the night sky was illuminated, and the city was filled with strong blessings.
The next few days were as peaceful as before, Wu Xie would occasionally go out with his parents to pay New Year's greetings, and when he came back, he complained to Zhang Qiling that there were too many bear children, and the money he had worked hard for a year was gone.
Until the fifth day.
The fifth day of the Lunar New Year was to welcome the God of Wealth, so Wu Xie had waited until the early hours of the night as a matter of course, and dragged Zhang Qiling downstairs to set off firecrackers, hoping that in the new year there would be a lot of money and that he would get back all the money he had spent.
Wu Xie, come back with me tomorrow.
Eh?How did you change your mind?
It's okay, let's change the sign.
Wu Xie stared blankly at the man standing behind the firecrackers, but her heart twisted bit by bit.
Cannot be changed.
I can't go back with you.
Brother, I still have things to do.
Then Wu Xie nodded with a smile and said, okay, I'll check it out tomorrow.
Wu Xie sat in front of the computer, connected to the Internet, clicked on the webpage, and chose to change the booking.
With a few simple steps, Wu Xie was so nervous that his heart jumped out.
Looking at the "surplus votes" display on the page, Wu Xie's mind went blank.
Zhang Qiling was in the living room helping Mama Wu to prepare the ingredients, watching Wu Xie lazily walking out of the bedroom while Mama Wu scolded him.You wake up so late, look at Xiao Zhang, is he ashamed, huh?
Mom... Wu Xie covered her mouth and yawned big. She didn't save me any face. Brother, I have something to tell you.
In the bedroom where the door was closed, Wu Xie pointed toe to toe with Zhang Qiling a little awkwardly, and said with regret and anger that there is no ticket and there is no way to change it.
He lowered his head after speaking, looking very sad.
Zhang Qiling sighed, pulled him into his arms, stroked his hair and said, it's all right, I'll wait for you at home.
Before leaving, Zhang Qiling found a few large bags of Hangzhou specialties stuffed by his mother in Zhang Qiling's box, and his mother kept telling Wu Xie to send him to the airport properly.Wu Xie nodded, carried the suitcase downstairs and stuffed it into the trunk, and sent it all the way to the boarding gate.
Zhang Qiling turned to look at him inside, mouthing goodbye.Wu Xie answered him with a smile and waved vigorously outside.
Seeing the man's back all the way forward, Wu Xie stopped smiling until he turned a corner and was no longer seen.
Zhang Qi Ling.
Bro.
This is the only time I lie.
It's also the slowest you've ever been.
03.
Wu Xie was smoking while driving, and when he got home, the car was already smoggy like a fairyland on earth.Wu Xie rolled down all the windows to ventilate the car, and lay still in the driver's seat, thinking about it for a long time, but still couldn't organize his words.
Dad, Mom, I'm gay.
Mom, in fact, that person just now was my boyfriend.
Parents, please forgive your son for being unfilial.
You want the first one to kill the other, and the second one is optional.
……
One is more unreliable than the other.
He returned home dejectedly, only to find that his mother had gone out to play mahjong with his old sisters leisurely, only Wu Yiqiong came out from the balcony with a kettle in his hand, took a look at him and said, he's back.
Well, back.That, Dad...
I'm going to water the flowers, you wait for me in the study first.He walked back slowly with the water bottle in his hand.
Wu Xie waited boredly in the study for a long time before Wu Yiqiong walked in with his hands behind his back. The first sentence was, "Your father's handwriting is okay, right?"
Wu Xie froze for a moment, nodded repeatedly, of course.
Hmm... Zhang Qiling is quite good.
Wu Xie was taken aback again, Dad... what do you want to say?
Wu Yiqiong walked to the desk with a very slow pace and sat down, saying, "My son has grown up, I can't control it anymore."
……
Seeing his father's god-like appearance, Wu Xie felt a chill down his spine.
Dad... Actually, I have something to tell you.
Speak.Wu Yiqiong said calmly, and met Wu Xie's eyes.
Just this one glance, both of them were cold from head to toe.Father and son who are blood relatives have an inexplicable connection, thinking about the same thing and the same person.
Wu Xie was stunned. He recalled the past few days with Zhang Qiling, and confirmed that there was no blatant intimacy. He didn't know how his father, who was immersed in academics, saw it, and he waited until this time for the showdown.Thinking of this, Wu Xie felt that his back must be covered with layers of cold sweat.
Wu Yiqiong's lips trembled slightly, looking at the grown-up son opposite him, he couldn't figure out why such an insult to the family tradition happened to his own son.That Zhang Qiling, no matter how you look at it, is a handsome gentleman, who would have thought that he is such a person, who would spoil his parents and children, and even boldly come to demonstrate at the door, he hates his kid for not knowing it.
You broke up with him, and I will arrange a blind date for you. I will not tell your mother about it.Wu Yiqiong said word by word.
Eh?Wu Xie was taken aback for a moment, what I want to talk about is not this matter, old man.
Wu Yiqiong was stunned for half a second, his face beaming with joy.It’s fine if it’s not this, what did you want to say?
In fact, it is almost the same.Wu Xie scratched her head pretending to be obedient, and said calmly, your son, I...is gay, er...naturally.
The second half of the sentence made his teeth ache, because it was a lie.Just kidding, when I was in college, I pooled money with my buddies to buy a telescope to look at the girls' dormitory. Don't be too skilled in such hooligan methods.
Naihe met Zhang Qiling, from straight to curved.
The poor old man of the Wu family was frightened by this sentence for a long time before he recovered, his lips trembled a few times before he could utter two words.
No!
Dad, it's not a question of whether or not you can do it.Wu Xiedao, I knew my sexual orientation when I was still studying. At that time, I was very scared and panicked. I never dared to tell you. I hid in the dormitory and never went out or went to class.Didn't you still ask me why my grades suddenly dropped during that time?That's because your son is stuck at the most important point in his life.Really, I've tried everything except suicide.However, what is born is what is born, and what is engraved in the genes cannot be changed.
After speaking, Wu Xie's own voice also became hoarse.He wrote this series of lines repeatedly more than ten times, and he memorized them fluently.Originally there was still a part of it, and I just wanted to insist on not letting go, but when I took it out, I saw my father's face turning pale little by little, and finally turned into a gray and defeated, he couldn't continue, as if he was caught by something. Something was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get up or down until he was about to burst into tears.
Wu Yiqiong looked at him with extremely complicated eyes as if he was seeing him for the first time.
……dad.There were tears in Wu Xie's eyes, he couldn't say anything, he was silent for a while, and slowly knelt down.
Wu Yiqiong stared at him for a long time, and with all the energy from his body, he fell down on the swivel chair with tears flowing down his face.
... Beast... he muttered.
Wu Xie never regarded herself as a woman, nor did she feel that Zhang Qiling should be the villain that his father called.As a man, he must take responsibility. That man has no hometown and no relatives, so it is logical for him to protect him.
To put it bluntly, he still feels sorry for Zhang Qiling.Thinking of that person's childhood without parents, without playmates, and perhaps being bullied and discriminated against because of his blood, he felt pain in his heart.I want him to smile more, end all his previous loneliness, and give the two of them a bright future.
This is his own idea, and has nothing to do with the stuffy oil bottle.
He thought very clearly.The circle of comrades is inherently limited, and the private life of those who have been in it all year round may be a bit chaotic, and it is difficult to find a satisfactory partner. Now it is lucky to find Zhang Qiling.
Wu Xie sneered, from a well-dressed beast who led his obedient son to ruin, to an honest man who rescued him from the fire and water.
As for my own reputation... If you don't want it, then you don't want it, anyway, it's just ruining your image in the eyes of your parents, it doesn't matter, that's where you don't have an image.
If one of them must be the villain, Wu Xie would rather be himself.
04.
It was almost time for dinner, and Wu Xie's mother came home.Wu Xie was busy tinkling in the kitchen, and her mother rushed in happily. Oh, my son has grown up, and he finally knows how to cook a meal for his parents.
Wu Xie refuted her dissatisfiedly, I always cook when you are not at home!
Well, yes, my son is the best.Mom stood on tiptoe, hugged him and kissed him, then turned and left the kitchen.Wu Xie was sad while choosing vegetables, your son is not good at all, just now my father said that I was a bad student.
During lunch, the father and son looked as usual, the father was kind and the son was filial, as if nothing had happened.After the meal, Wu Yiqiong helped Wu Xie tidy the dining table, and brought the dishes into the kitchen.
Thank you, Dad.Wu Xie said softly, and was scolded by Wu Yiqiong.
After taking a nap, Wu Xie watched DVDs with her mother.Mom sat on the sofa with a sweater needle and watched Wu Xie pick out a disc.Wu Xie pretended to be picky and picked out a piece of "Wedding Banquet", which Wu Xie brought from Beijing and secretly stuffed it into the DVD rack.
He didn't do this on a whim.From preparing gay movies to preparing Zhang Qiling's air ticket, he had already thought about it early in the morning.
What kind of film is this, who bought it, why don't I know?Watching the beginning of the film, Wu Xie's mother was puzzled.
My classmate gave it to me last year, and I kept it unwatched. You have seen all the other movies on the shelf.Wu Xie sat down beside her mother while talking, there is your favorite Gui Yalei in it, let's take a good look~
The male protagonist in "The Wedding Banquet" is very similar to Wu Xie. He lives with his boyfriend in the United States without telling his parents, and is constantly urged by his parents to get married.
Mom took it very seriously, and Wu Xie felt that it was largely because of her idol, Gui Yalei.He sat next to him, holding his mobile phone and texting Zhang Qiling back and forth. The content was all about what you were wearing, what you ate, how was the weather over there, which quilt smelled good, etc. kind.
Who are you texting?Wu Xie's mother leaned towards him abruptly, and asked, with an expression of "I'm looking forward to the other party being a girl" all over her face.
Colleagues, we're talking about work.Wu Xie pressed the phone to her chest, her heart beating loudly.Mother looked disappointed and disbelieving and turned back to continue watching the movie. Only then did Wu Xie dare to take out the phone slowly. On it was a text message that had just been edited:
I miss you so much right now.Recipient, Zhang Qiling.
Wu Xie thought for a while, and added a few more words at the end: I was almost discovered by my mother just now, and scared me to death.
After a while, the phone vibrated twice, Zhang Qiling called back, and told me if he found it, and come to accompany you.
……
Wu Xie closed the SMS interface and didn't go back.
During the period, Wu Yiqiong came out of the study once, and stood in the living room watching them for a while after going to the toilet. He realized that this was his son giving his wife a defensive injection. He turned his head and gave Wu Xie a meaningful look, and went back to the study up.
Wu Xie felt ashamed in his heart, and silently lowered his head, otherwise, in normal times, he would have stared back and added a grimace.
After watching the movie, Wu Xie asked her mother carefully, what do you think of the movie?
It's not bad, what do you think about mom cutting Gui Yalei's hairstyle? Is it suitable?Wu Xie's mother looked hopeful.
……
Mom, you got the point wrong, what do you think of this leading actor?
You've got the point wrong, stay away from me, and be careful not to poke you with a sweater needle.Mom couldn't wait for a satisfactory answer, so she hummed and started knitting the sweater again.
……
The male protagonist is really not that good, it's fine if he is gay, but he also goes to spoil other people's girls and even gets pregnant.How do you live after this?Is it plausible that a child has two fathers and one mother?
Mom bowed her head and typed for a while, and then such a large series of words came out.
Wu Xie listened carefully, and felt that her mother didn't seem to show any disgust at the fact that the hero is gay.So I continued my efforts and asked again, then... what if your son is also gay?
Mom stopped her hand and looked at him in surprise, are you gay? !
If, I said if!
Mother put down the needle and thread in her hand, held his face and looked at him for a long time, and said calmly, then you don't even enter my house.
……
Do you hear me?Mom pinched his face to pretend to be a villain just like when he was a child.
……I heard.
05.
The next day, when Wu Xie opened her eyes, she saw her mother sitting by the bed wiping tears.He was frightened out of his wits, and he sat up and helped her by the shoulders, not wanting his mother to scream like seeing a monster, don't touch me!
The outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and the chill spread from the head to the soles of the feet.Wu Xie got up silently, folded the quilt and got dressed, finished washing under the watchful eyes of her mother, and began to pack her luggage.
You... what are you going to do?
Wu Xie turned around, and Fangfo, the mother who was standing by the bed, had aged ten years overnight, with prominent gray hair at the temples.
You said, if I'm gay, I won't come into your house.You know it all, and now I'm ready to leave.Wu Xie said lightly, at that moment he thought of Zhang Qiling, that's how that person talks, no matter how urgent things get out of his mouth, they will immediately become a trivial matter.
Then he saw his mother burst into tears.Her eyes were red, and she didn't know how long she had been crying; her hair was messed up, and she didn't comb it well; she was still wearing the SpongeBob pajamas that Wu Xie bought for her.
This is his mother.
The mother in my impression always wears decent clothes, combs fashionable hairstyles, and occasionally puts on some makeup. She smiles and welcomes people, dripping water, and happily says how powerful and filial my son is.
Wu Yiqiong opened the door and came in, looking at the two with a livid face.
Wu Xie also looked at him, all the anger in his heart was expressed in his eyes.Dad is a bad dad. He didn't fulfill his promise and secretly told Mom about things in advance.
Do you want to change it?Wu Yiqiong asked him.
to not fix.
Then you go.
Wu Xie turned and left.
When the door was closed, I heard my mother yelling heartbreakingly in the bedroom: Wu Yiqiong!Even the door panel was shaken.
Bought a pack of the cheapest cigarettes and a lighter at the canteen outside, Wu Xie floated back to the yard, found a place with few people, picked a bench that looked a little cleaner, sat on it, and started smoking.
The smell of low-quality cigarettes made him uncomfortable, and he was about to choke his tears.
He didn't think about really leaving.Can't get away.
Living in that house for more than ten years, his parents watched him grow up, taught him to speak and read, and he was admitted to university to work, step by step smoothly, and he finally grew from the little bean bun at the beginning to the one in his parents' mouth. pride.In the end, I went to Beijing for three years, but I stumbled hard on the major events of my life.At least in their view, it was a stumble.
Thinking about it this way, Wu Xie also felt that he was a bit of a jerk, and it seemed that the old man's words about being a beast were not wrong.
The phone in his butt pocket hurt him a little, but Wu Xie didn't touch it.He removed the battery board inside and put it in the bedside table. Now the phone will no longer ring or vibrate.There is no other meaning in doing this, but I just don't want to see Zhang Qiling's text messages and answer his calls anymore.
That man was his weakness.
Nested in Beijing, hiding from parents, procrastinating not getting married year after year.This is not what he wants, he has to tell his parents frankly and clearly, he wants to be able to hold hands with Zhang Qiling and go home for the new year with Zhang Qiling.
But seeing the word Zhang Qiling, I couldn't help complaining to him and complaining to him.Then he heard the reason, and after a few words of persuasion, maybe he would give up and be defeated like a mountain.
The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant nest.
He couldn't let Zhang Qiling be that ant, so he had to remove the battery board.After this period of time has passed, it's good to put it on again... At least, wait until my parents let go.
A little girl skipped past, stopped in front of him, pinched her nose and said, it stinks.
Wu Xie quickly pinched the cigarette butt, covered her mouth and nose with her hands to prevent the smell of smoke from leaking out, smiled at her apologetically, and play with you, uncle is smoking and will choke you.
Are you unhappy?Eyes are red.The little girl let go of her hand, raised her head and asked him.
No, uncle was smoked. This smoke is not good for children. Go find other children to play with.
The little girl nodded and walked away bouncing around.
When the door was opened, Wu Yiqiong and Wu's mother were sitting on the sofa as grandpas.Wu Xie leaned against the wall by the door to change his shoes, Wu Yiqiong snorted coldly: You still know how to come back?
Wu Yiqiong!Another loud shout, this is a feminist family, Wu Xie deeply agrees.He looked at the place where the second elder was sitting, went to the bathroom and placed the low stool in front of the living room, and sat on it with his long legs, his posture was a little funny.
What are you doing sitting here?Mother Wu asked strangely.
Wu Xie looked at her, got up and removed the low stool, and sat cross-legged on the floor.
The two stared wide-eyed as if they were watching a psychopath.
Wu Xie had no choice but to adjust his posture and knelt down, his body straightened and his head bowed.
This is my lowest stance.he said.
……
You get up and talk first.Mother Wu spoke with a crying voice.
Wu Xie took a deep breath before saying, no need.I did this wrong, I shouldn’t hide it from you, it’s fine to kneel—at least my attitude is good, I hope you can forgive me.
Do you want to change it?Wu Yiqiong asked him a second time.
I was born gay, it's a destiny and there's no way to change it.Wu Xiedao, thinking silently, even if your son was raped, it was destined by God and cannot be changed.
Then you break up with him, quit your job, and come back to Hangzhou.
No.
why not!Wu Yiqiong was furious.
Dad, what I'm going to say is the exact opposite of what you are saying.I will not break up with him, I will marry him.Wu Xie raised her head and met her father's sharp gaze.
impossible.
Nothing is impossible.Wu Xie calmly continued, "Dad, I have grown up and am independent financially and independently. It is my freedom to have a boyfriend or a girlfriend."You taught me from a young age, don't associate with dubious people, Zhang Qiling is not a dubious person, he is a good person, he will respect you like me...
You haven't grown up at all!Wu Yiqiong roared, his voice trembling, you are with a man, you let
My heart is a little sour.
"The mage said just now that people live in the world, come and go alone, live and die alone... It sounds really uncomfortable." Wu Xie was very sad.If he is allowed to live without Zhang Qiling at this moment, he feels that he cannot do it.Without this person by my side, I can't even find the most suitable breathing frequency.
There is no substitute for suffering and happiness.
If one person's suffering and happiness are all related to another person, if he suffers, he will also suffer; if he is happy, he will also be happy.He was immersed in his obsession with Zhang Qiling, he didn't think there was anything wrong or wrong, he just felt sad.
"Wu Xie." Zhang Qiling saw that he kept his head down and kept silent, and knew that he was thinking of some crooked ways again, so he called out to him, "Although we say we live alone and die alone, we can share both joy and sorrow. This is a husband and wife. .”
Wu Xie slowly raised his head, stared at him blankly, and for a while, grinned an ugly smile: "We are the same."
"En." Zhang Qiling took his hand on the table, and Wu Xie shook it back, still with a silly smile on his face.
【[-]】Touxiang from Lingyin Temple
01.
The story of two years ago is actually very simple, it is a problem that every couple in the world has to face.For most homosexuals, meeting their parents is almost a real tough battle.
Wu Xie graduated from Hangzhou, but was transferred to Beijing after working.In the first two years, he was not used to the wind and sand in Beijing, and the tone of Beijingers' speech, but because there was a Zhang Qiling in Beijing, he forcibly endured it.It's just that every Spring Festival, I always go home to see my parents and visit relatives.
Zhang Qiling never went with him.Wu Xie's parents are in Hangzhou, so they can be regarded as people with face.He is the eldest son and the only son. It is not good to bring a man home after the Chinese New Year.Wu Xie doesn't argue with him either. Every Spring Festival is a farewell to him, and he can only rely on phone calls and text messages to maintain the missing of each other.
In the third year, Wu Xie suddenly made a fuss, holding up two air tickets and handing them to Zhang Qiling.The man looked up at him with rejection written all over his face.
Wu Xie said, treat him as my friend and come back after the new year.
In the end Zhang Qiling asked him to take another five days of annual leave, and the two of them staggered their return dates in order not to make Wu Xie's parents suspicious.Wu Xie asked unhappily, if I don't take annual leave, the company will send me money, how do you compensate?
Zhang Qiling boldly swiped his pen, and I will supply it to you.
The two brought New Year's goods and gifts to Wu Xie's parents in Beijing, and Wu Xie became nervous when they got on the plane, always feeling that they would be spotted by their parents.
Zhang Qiling asked him, your parents, what kind of people are they?
Wu Xie thought for a long time and said, Dad is a university professor. He taught me a lot when I was a child. I like to play chess and write in the study alone. My mother works in a government agency and knows many people. I am quite busy, and I like to chat with my colleagues about trivial matters in life, about other people's children, and then criticize the old man.
In the end, Wu Xie smiled, little brother, in fact, our family is the most common feminist family in Chinese society.
When he arrived in Hangzhou, Wu Xie took him home by taxi from the airport.
Wu Xie's home is in a community in the old city.The large rusted iron gate, the walls are full of wall-climbing tigers, and the staff at the entrance of the community are chatting with each other in security uniforms.The house inside is a bit old, but it can be seen that it occupies a large area. Looking at it now, it can be regarded as a sky-high price.
The community is very green, with tall and dense street trees, and the cold winter wind, occasionally an old man who is tightly wrapped will pass by them slowly.Wu Xie was terribly cold, so she pushed Zhang Qiling inside.
Still going upstairs, I heard the door of a family "click" and then slowly pushed open.Wu Xie looked up, and carefully poked out a slightly old-fashioned joyful smiling face from inside, Xiao Xie is back!Old man, Xiao Xie is back!
Wu Yiqiong rushed out from the inside in a hurry, and the moment he saw Zhang Qiling, his eyes froze for a moment.
Zhang Qiling watched Wu Xie bend over to hug the woman with some embarrassment, not missing Father Wu's probing eyes.
Wu Xie let go of his mother, and introduced to his parents, this is my friend, the boss of another department, who usually takes special care of me, grew up abroad, and has no relatives, so I will bring him to our house for the New Year.
Zhang Qiling stiffened unnaturally, and said hello, uncle and aunt.
Seeing that he is a talented person with an extraordinary temperament, Mama Wu has no doubts about him and warmly welcomes them into the house.
Wu Xie took him to visit his bedroom, pointing to the rows of awards on the wall and smiling complacently, brother, you see, I am also very good.Then grabbed Zhang Qiling's cold hands and rubbed them together, don't be afraid.
Finding his casual clothes for him to change into, Wu Xie led him to his father's study, and showed him the words Wu Yiqiong usually wrote, saying, this is Yan Kai, and this is Zhongxing Song; Okay, this is a cold food post; this one is in thin gold style, and it says... It's written...
It is a summer poem post.Wu Yiqiong happily added for him, watching his son introduce his works to outsiders with a little pride.
Wu Xie said again, my brother is from Germany, and his Chinese is good but not idiomatic enough. Dad, why don't you tell him something?So leaving Zhang Qiling alone, he ran to the kitchen to help his mother.
In the evening, the two lived separately as a matter of course. Mother Wu cleaned up Zhang Qiling's guest room and came out. After taking a shower, Wu Xie tucked into the quilt and texted Zhang Qiling.
Brother, is your quilt cold?
not cold.
Remember to turn on the air conditioner, Hangzhou is no better than Beijing in winter, there is no heating.
Ok.
You treat this place as your own home, and you are welcome to use water and electricity.
Your parents are good people.
Of course, otherwise there would be such a good son like me.
Ok.
Brother, why don't we call.
No need to.
Then I will come to you in the middle of the night.
……
That's it.
...don't make a fuss.
Hey hey hey I'm kidding, I'm sure I won't get up in the middle of the night.
Ok.
……
……
Like every Spring Festival before, I imagined the expression and tone of that person when typing text through the phone, and then smiled silly while holding the phone.
02.
The next day was New Year's Eve, and for the first time Zhang Qiling really experienced a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with seniors present.The table was full of dishes, and Wu Yiqiong opened a bottle of red wine. He wanted to pour some for everyone, but Wu Xie stopped him, saying that he would go to Lingyin Temple tonight and drink it. You can't drive without drinking, and then happily praise your mother's craftsmanship.
But no matter how much she poured her into the ecstasy soup, she couldn't make her give up that bit of gossip in a woman's nature.First, he boasted about Zhang Qiling compared to Wu Xie, and then asked, is Xiao Zhang married?
Mom, your question is so stupid, if you get married, will you come to our house to celebrate the New Year?Wu Xie bit her chopsticks and interrupted.
Oh, yes, do you have a girlfriend?
Zhang Qiling was stunned for a moment, then replied, yes.
Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, and Mother Wu showed a surprised expression. That girl is really lucky, she must be excellent, right?
……Well enough.
Can you talk about it in detail?Mother Wu's expression was exactly the same as Wu Xie's, which made Zhang Qiling chuckle.
We... met on the sports field.He is very powerful. When we met for the first time, he didn't have a good impression on me.Very popular and very smart.Disadvantage... probably more jealous.
When Zhang Qiling said the first sentence, Wu Xie knew that he was being plotted against again, so he stepped on his instep under the table and twisted it bit by bit, his whole body was a little hot.
Being jealous means that she cares about you, girls are like this.Mother Wu said with a smile, but she didn't know that Wu Xie was bleeding silently in her heart. Girls are like this, but what about boys?
Mother Wu asked again, why didn't she bring the girl along?
She is on a business trip abroad.Zhang Qiling made up a lie casually and won Wu's mother's unreserved trust.The New Year's Eve and his girlfriend are separated in two places, no wonder they came to Wu Xie.
Wu Xie buried her head and only cared about eating, and let them chat enthusiastically, let's talk, let's talk, it's best that you don't know the truth.
Xiao Xie.After dealing with other people's children, it will naturally be their turn.Did you move?
ah?Wu Xie still had a vegetable in his mouth, and looked up in astonishment.
You can tell at a glance that you don't have a girlfriend yet.
Well, I can't find a girlfriend.Wu Xie swallowed the vegetables, answered fluently, and added in her heart, because I found a boyfriend.
how can that be possible?
blame him.Wu Xie pointed to Zhang Qiling.And the middle-level leaders of the company represented by him maliciously squeezed us low-level employees, so that we didn't have time to look at the big girls at all.
Lying without changing face or heartbeat.
……
After dinner, Wu Xie took the initiative to help his mother wash the dishes, and invited his mother to go to Lingyin Temple to burn incense with him.
Don't go, don't go, there are so many people, I don't bother to move.As expected, she was rejected by her mother.Wu Xie was secretly happy, it was just right not to go, I will take my little brother there.
There are a lot of people burning incense, and the trend is increasing year by year. Many people from other places set off by car in the afternoon.After washing the dishes, Wu Xie walked into the bedroom, and said to Zhang Qiling, brother, I will take you to see a custom in Hangzhou.
Wu Xie rummaged through the closet, handed Zhang Qiling a pair of long johns of her own, and said righteously: The north is different from the south, it will be so cold outside later that you can freeze to death, you put these on.
Zhang Qiling shook his head and refused.Wu Xie stuffed the long johns into his hands, put his hands on his hips, and ordered, put them on.
Shaking his head.
You really don't wear them?
nod.
Wu Xie picked up the hem of Zhang Qiling's coat and went to untie his belt. If he didn't wear it, he had to wear it. This is in Hangzhou, you must listen to me.
……
In the end, Zhang Qiling was forced to wear two pairs of trousers. The long johns were tightly attached to his legs. It was the first time in his life that he wore something like women's stockings, which made him frown.
Wu Xie took out the wool gloves and handed them to him, picked up another bag, and led him out.
Drive to the vicinity of Lingyin Temple, buy tickets, and follow other pilgrims to the burning incense point.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and all the scenery that could be seen were the backs of other people's heads.There are people on the front, back, left, and right. On the long steps, people walk up step by step holding hands in twos and threes.
Brother, are you cold?Wu Xie walked side by side with him, and he stuffed the gloves for Zhang Qiling back into the bag before going out, and wearing an extra pair of trousers still made him feel awkward, although the effect of keeping out the cold was really good.
Wu Xie looked at his red nose and jet-white lips, dragged him to the side, took out a cashmere scarf from the bag like a magic trick, and put it around his neck.
……
Zhang Qiling took a small step back, the scarf around his neck was still held by Wu Xie, and he was instantly strangled.
……
Wu Xie snorted and laughed twice, continued to wrap up the entire scarf, leaned over to help him straighten it up and down, and after making sure that his ears and lips would not be blown by the cold wind, he nodded in satisfaction.He took his hand and put it near his mouth, took two breaths, rubbed it, took another two breaths, rubbed it.
Wu Xie.
Don't move, little brother, you are like this, you dress like this everywhere, and you don't make a sound when you freeze to death.
People around saw their actions with different eyes, some were surprised, some were blessed, and more were contemptuous.
Suddenly I feel a little irritable.
Zhang Qiling forcefully pulled out the hand that Wu Xie held in his palm, and the other party looked over with a look of astonishment and grievance.Zhang Qiling grabbed his hand, put it in his pocket, and signaled him to go forward.
There is no need for irrelevant people to point out the matter between him and Wu Xie.
Wu Xie's hands were also very cold, not much better than his.Zhang Qiling somewhat understood Wu Xie's mood just now, and slowly tightened his ten fingers in the windbreaker pocket with a little heartache.
After a while, Wu Xie came over foolishly and said, brother, your pocket is so warm.
……
There are more people in the place where incense is burned, and everyone is crowded in the main hall to wait quietly, and there are more and more pilgrims waiting in line behind.
If I had to describe it in one word, it would be shoulder to shoulder.
Zhang Qiling stood behind Wu Xie, gently wrapping his arms around his waist.Wu Xie wanted to escape in embarrassment at first, but found that the surrounding space was already filled with crowds, with countless arms piercing in all directions, and Zhang Qiling's concealment of movements was simply not very good.
After waiting for a long time, a firework suddenly exploded in the sky.The crowd burst into cheers, and the team in front of the hall began to move.
Brother, happy new year.Wu Xie leaned in his arms, slowly moving forward with the crowd.
happy New Year.
When burning incense and praying for blessings for a while, remember not to make a wish to the Bodhisattva, otherwise you will come to fulfill the wish, just ask for peace.Wu Xie turned her face and whispered in his ear.
Ok.
If conditions permit, Zhang Qiling will definitely lower his head and kiss that mouth.
Finally it was their turn, Wu Xie knelt on the futon, folded his hands together and held incense, and bowed three times, first asking for the safety of his parents in the coming year, then asking for Zhang Qiling's safety, and finally asking for his own safety.
Be safe no matter what happens.
Wu Xie drove the car back to the parking garage of the community. There were so many people in Lingyin Temple, but when they got home, they found that except for the children who were setting off firecrackers, most of the old people had already fallen asleep.It's like a rushing river, branching all the way down, and finally seeping into the soil silently, disappearing.
There is no underground garage in the old-fashioned community. Fortunately, Wu Xie's mother had a bit of foresight when she bought the house, and bought it together with the garage next to it.Later, everyone became richer, and the newly bought car didn't have to rack their brains outside to fight for parking spaces with other people's homes.
Brother is gone.Wu Xie unbuckled his seat belt, turned off the engine, got out of the car and locked it, took out the bag from the back seat, and waited for him at the garage door.
Wu Xie.Zhang Qiling stood by the car and called him.
Ok?
Zhang Qiling didn't speak any more, watching the man scratching his head suspiciously while slowly walking towards him, reached out to hold him in his arms, and lowered his head to kiss that mouth.Been wanting to do this since just now.
Hmm... Wu Xie looked at him in surprise, and then responded with relief.They exchanged saliva, their tongues entangled, and their noses were full of each other's breath, in the garage of their own home.
The best hope in my heart.
The sound of fireworks outside continued one after another, the night sky was illuminated, and the city was filled with strong blessings.
The next few days were as peaceful as before, Wu Xie would occasionally go out with his parents to pay New Year's greetings, and when he came back, he complained to Zhang Qiling that there were too many bear children, and the money he had worked hard for a year was gone.
Until the fifth day.
The fifth day of the Lunar New Year was to welcome the God of Wealth, so Wu Xie had waited until the early hours of the night as a matter of course, and dragged Zhang Qiling downstairs to set off firecrackers, hoping that in the new year there would be a lot of money and that he would get back all the money he had spent.
Wu Xie, come back with me tomorrow.
Eh?How did you change your mind?
It's okay, let's change the sign.
Wu Xie stared blankly at the man standing behind the firecrackers, but her heart twisted bit by bit.
Cannot be changed.
I can't go back with you.
Brother, I still have things to do.
Then Wu Xie nodded with a smile and said, okay, I'll check it out tomorrow.
Wu Xie sat in front of the computer, connected to the Internet, clicked on the webpage, and chose to change the booking.
With a few simple steps, Wu Xie was so nervous that his heart jumped out.
Looking at the "surplus votes" display on the page, Wu Xie's mind went blank.
Zhang Qiling was in the living room helping Mama Wu to prepare the ingredients, watching Wu Xie lazily walking out of the bedroom while Mama Wu scolded him.You wake up so late, look at Xiao Zhang, is he ashamed, huh?
Mom... Wu Xie covered her mouth and yawned big. She didn't save me any face. Brother, I have something to tell you.
In the bedroom where the door was closed, Wu Xie pointed toe to toe with Zhang Qiling a little awkwardly, and said with regret and anger that there is no ticket and there is no way to change it.
He lowered his head after speaking, looking very sad.
Zhang Qiling sighed, pulled him into his arms, stroked his hair and said, it's all right, I'll wait for you at home.
Before leaving, Zhang Qiling found a few large bags of Hangzhou specialties stuffed by his mother in Zhang Qiling's box, and his mother kept telling Wu Xie to send him to the airport properly.Wu Xie nodded, carried the suitcase downstairs and stuffed it into the trunk, and sent it all the way to the boarding gate.
Zhang Qiling turned to look at him inside, mouthing goodbye.Wu Xie answered him with a smile and waved vigorously outside.
Seeing the man's back all the way forward, Wu Xie stopped smiling until he turned a corner and was no longer seen.
Zhang Qi Ling.
Bro.
This is the only time I lie.
It's also the slowest you've ever been.
03.
Wu Xie was smoking while driving, and when he got home, the car was already smoggy like a fairyland on earth.Wu Xie rolled down all the windows to ventilate the car, and lay still in the driver's seat, thinking about it for a long time, but still couldn't organize his words.
Dad, Mom, I'm gay.
Mom, in fact, that person just now was my boyfriend.
Parents, please forgive your son for being unfilial.
You want the first one to kill the other, and the second one is optional.
……
One is more unreliable than the other.
He returned home dejectedly, only to find that his mother had gone out to play mahjong with his old sisters leisurely, only Wu Yiqiong came out from the balcony with a kettle in his hand, took a look at him and said, he's back.
Well, back.That, Dad...
I'm going to water the flowers, you wait for me in the study first.He walked back slowly with the water bottle in his hand.
Wu Xie waited boredly in the study for a long time before Wu Yiqiong walked in with his hands behind his back. The first sentence was, "Your father's handwriting is okay, right?"
Wu Xie froze for a moment, nodded repeatedly, of course.
Hmm... Zhang Qiling is quite good.
Wu Xie was taken aback again, Dad... what do you want to say?
Wu Yiqiong walked to the desk with a very slow pace and sat down, saying, "My son has grown up, I can't control it anymore."
……
Seeing his father's god-like appearance, Wu Xie felt a chill down his spine.
Dad... Actually, I have something to tell you.
Speak.Wu Yiqiong said calmly, and met Wu Xie's eyes.
Just this one glance, both of them were cold from head to toe.Father and son who are blood relatives have an inexplicable connection, thinking about the same thing and the same person.
Wu Xie was stunned. He recalled the past few days with Zhang Qiling, and confirmed that there was no blatant intimacy. He didn't know how his father, who was immersed in academics, saw it, and he waited until this time for the showdown.Thinking of this, Wu Xie felt that his back must be covered with layers of cold sweat.
Wu Yiqiong's lips trembled slightly, looking at the grown-up son opposite him, he couldn't figure out why such an insult to the family tradition happened to his own son.That Zhang Qiling, no matter how you look at it, is a handsome gentleman, who would have thought that he is such a person, who would spoil his parents and children, and even boldly come to demonstrate at the door, he hates his kid for not knowing it.
You broke up with him, and I will arrange a blind date for you. I will not tell your mother about it.Wu Yiqiong said word by word.
Eh?Wu Xie was taken aback for a moment, what I want to talk about is not this matter, old man.
Wu Yiqiong was stunned for half a second, his face beaming with joy.It’s fine if it’s not this, what did you want to say?
In fact, it is almost the same.Wu Xie scratched her head pretending to be obedient, and said calmly, your son, I...is gay, er...naturally.
The second half of the sentence made his teeth ache, because it was a lie.Just kidding, when I was in college, I pooled money with my buddies to buy a telescope to look at the girls' dormitory. Don't be too skilled in such hooligan methods.
Naihe met Zhang Qiling, from straight to curved.
The poor old man of the Wu family was frightened by this sentence for a long time before he recovered, his lips trembled a few times before he could utter two words.
No!
Dad, it's not a question of whether or not you can do it.Wu Xiedao, I knew my sexual orientation when I was still studying. At that time, I was very scared and panicked. I never dared to tell you. I hid in the dormitory and never went out or went to class.Didn't you still ask me why my grades suddenly dropped during that time?That's because your son is stuck at the most important point in his life.Really, I've tried everything except suicide.However, what is born is what is born, and what is engraved in the genes cannot be changed.
After speaking, Wu Xie's own voice also became hoarse.He wrote this series of lines repeatedly more than ten times, and he memorized them fluently.Originally there was still a part of it, and I just wanted to insist on not letting go, but when I took it out, I saw my father's face turning pale little by little, and finally turned into a gray and defeated, he couldn't continue, as if he was caught by something. Something was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get up or down until he was about to burst into tears.
Wu Yiqiong looked at him with extremely complicated eyes as if he was seeing him for the first time.
……dad.There were tears in Wu Xie's eyes, he couldn't say anything, he was silent for a while, and slowly knelt down.
Wu Yiqiong stared at him for a long time, and with all the energy from his body, he fell down on the swivel chair with tears flowing down his face.
... Beast... he muttered.
Wu Xie never regarded herself as a woman, nor did she feel that Zhang Qiling should be the villain that his father called.As a man, he must take responsibility. That man has no hometown and no relatives, so it is logical for him to protect him.
To put it bluntly, he still feels sorry for Zhang Qiling.Thinking of that person's childhood without parents, without playmates, and perhaps being bullied and discriminated against because of his blood, he felt pain in his heart.I want him to smile more, end all his previous loneliness, and give the two of them a bright future.
This is his own idea, and has nothing to do with the stuffy oil bottle.
He thought very clearly.The circle of comrades is inherently limited, and the private life of those who have been in it all year round may be a bit chaotic, and it is difficult to find a satisfactory partner. Now it is lucky to find Zhang Qiling.
Wu Xie sneered, from a well-dressed beast who led his obedient son to ruin, to an honest man who rescued him from the fire and water.
As for my own reputation... If you don't want it, then you don't want it, anyway, it's just ruining your image in the eyes of your parents, it doesn't matter, that's where you don't have an image.
If one of them must be the villain, Wu Xie would rather be himself.
04.
It was almost time for dinner, and Wu Xie's mother came home.Wu Xie was busy tinkling in the kitchen, and her mother rushed in happily. Oh, my son has grown up, and he finally knows how to cook a meal for his parents.
Wu Xie refuted her dissatisfiedly, I always cook when you are not at home!
Well, yes, my son is the best.Mom stood on tiptoe, hugged him and kissed him, then turned and left the kitchen.Wu Xie was sad while choosing vegetables, your son is not good at all, just now my father said that I was a bad student.
During lunch, the father and son looked as usual, the father was kind and the son was filial, as if nothing had happened.After the meal, Wu Yiqiong helped Wu Xie tidy the dining table, and brought the dishes into the kitchen.
Thank you, Dad.Wu Xie said softly, and was scolded by Wu Yiqiong.
After taking a nap, Wu Xie watched DVDs with her mother.Mom sat on the sofa with a sweater needle and watched Wu Xie pick out a disc.Wu Xie pretended to be picky and picked out a piece of "Wedding Banquet", which Wu Xie brought from Beijing and secretly stuffed it into the DVD rack.
He didn't do this on a whim.From preparing gay movies to preparing Zhang Qiling's air ticket, he had already thought about it early in the morning.
What kind of film is this, who bought it, why don't I know?Watching the beginning of the film, Wu Xie's mother was puzzled.
My classmate gave it to me last year, and I kept it unwatched. You have seen all the other movies on the shelf.Wu Xie sat down beside her mother while talking, there is your favorite Gui Yalei in it, let's take a good look~
The male protagonist in "The Wedding Banquet" is very similar to Wu Xie. He lives with his boyfriend in the United States without telling his parents, and is constantly urged by his parents to get married.
Mom took it very seriously, and Wu Xie felt that it was largely because of her idol, Gui Yalei.He sat next to him, holding his mobile phone and texting Zhang Qiling back and forth. The content was all about what you were wearing, what you ate, how was the weather over there, which quilt smelled good, etc. kind.
Who are you texting?Wu Xie's mother leaned towards him abruptly, and asked, with an expression of "I'm looking forward to the other party being a girl" all over her face.
Colleagues, we're talking about work.Wu Xie pressed the phone to her chest, her heart beating loudly.Mother looked disappointed and disbelieving and turned back to continue watching the movie. Only then did Wu Xie dare to take out the phone slowly. On it was a text message that had just been edited:
I miss you so much right now.Recipient, Zhang Qiling.
Wu Xie thought for a while, and added a few more words at the end: I was almost discovered by my mother just now, and scared me to death.
After a while, the phone vibrated twice, Zhang Qiling called back, and told me if he found it, and come to accompany you.
……
Wu Xie closed the SMS interface and didn't go back.
During the period, Wu Yiqiong came out of the study once, and stood in the living room watching them for a while after going to the toilet. He realized that this was his son giving his wife a defensive injection. He turned his head and gave Wu Xie a meaningful look, and went back to the study up.
Wu Xie felt ashamed in his heart, and silently lowered his head, otherwise, in normal times, he would have stared back and added a grimace.
After watching the movie, Wu Xie asked her mother carefully, what do you think of the movie?
It's not bad, what do you think about mom cutting Gui Yalei's hairstyle? Is it suitable?Wu Xie's mother looked hopeful.
……
Mom, you got the point wrong, what do you think of this leading actor?
You've got the point wrong, stay away from me, and be careful not to poke you with a sweater needle.Mom couldn't wait for a satisfactory answer, so she hummed and started knitting the sweater again.
……
The male protagonist is really not that good, it's fine if he is gay, but he also goes to spoil other people's girls and even gets pregnant.How do you live after this?Is it plausible that a child has two fathers and one mother?
Mom bowed her head and typed for a while, and then such a large series of words came out.
Wu Xie listened carefully, and felt that her mother didn't seem to show any disgust at the fact that the hero is gay.So I continued my efforts and asked again, then... what if your son is also gay?
Mom stopped her hand and looked at him in surprise, are you gay? !
If, I said if!
Mother put down the needle and thread in her hand, held his face and looked at him for a long time, and said calmly, then you don't even enter my house.
……
Do you hear me?Mom pinched his face to pretend to be a villain just like when he was a child.
……I heard.
05.
The next day, when Wu Xie opened her eyes, she saw her mother sitting by the bed wiping tears.He was frightened out of his wits, and he sat up and helped her by the shoulders, not wanting his mother to scream like seeing a monster, don't touch me!
The outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and the chill spread from the head to the soles of the feet.Wu Xie got up silently, folded the quilt and got dressed, finished washing under the watchful eyes of her mother, and began to pack her luggage.
You... what are you going to do?
Wu Xie turned around, and Fangfo, the mother who was standing by the bed, had aged ten years overnight, with prominent gray hair at the temples.
You said, if I'm gay, I won't come into your house.You know it all, and now I'm ready to leave.Wu Xie said lightly, at that moment he thought of Zhang Qiling, that's how that person talks, no matter how urgent things get out of his mouth, they will immediately become a trivial matter.
Then he saw his mother burst into tears.Her eyes were red, and she didn't know how long she had been crying; her hair was messed up, and she didn't comb it well; she was still wearing the SpongeBob pajamas that Wu Xie bought for her.
This is his mother.
The mother in my impression always wears decent clothes, combs fashionable hairstyles, and occasionally puts on some makeup. She smiles and welcomes people, dripping water, and happily says how powerful and filial my son is.
Wu Yiqiong opened the door and came in, looking at the two with a livid face.
Wu Xie also looked at him, all the anger in his heart was expressed in his eyes.Dad is a bad dad. He didn't fulfill his promise and secretly told Mom about things in advance.
Do you want to change it?Wu Yiqiong asked him.
to not fix.
Then you go.
Wu Xie turned and left.
When the door was closed, I heard my mother yelling heartbreakingly in the bedroom: Wu Yiqiong!Even the door panel was shaken.
Bought a pack of the cheapest cigarettes and a lighter at the canteen outside, Wu Xie floated back to the yard, found a place with few people, picked a bench that looked a little cleaner, sat on it, and started smoking.
The smell of low-quality cigarettes made him uncomfortable, and he was about to choke his tears.
He didn't think about really leaving.Can't get away.
Living in that house for more than ten years, his parents watched him grow up, taught him to speak and read, and he was admitted to university to work, step by step smoothly, and he finally grew from the little bean bun at the beginning to the one in his parents' mouth. pride.In the end, I went to Beijing for three years, but I stumbled hard on the major events of my life.At least in their view, it was a stumble.
Thinking about it this way, Wu Xie also felt that he was a bit of a jerk, and it seemed that the old man's words about being a beast were not wrong.
The phone in his butt pocket hurt him a little, but Wu Xie didn't touch it.He removed the battery board inside and put it in the bedside table. Now the phone will no longer ring or vibrate.There is no other meaning in doing this, but I just don't want to see Zhang Qiling's text messages and answer his calls anymore.
That man was his weakness.
Nested in Beijing, hiding from parents, procrastinating not getting married year after year.This is not what he wants, he has to tell his parents frankly and clearly, he wants to be able to hold hands with Zhang Qiling and go home for the new year with Zhang Qiling.
But seeing the word Zhang Qiling, I couldn't help complaining to him and complaining to him.Then he heard the reason, and after a few words of persuasion, maybe he would give up and be defeated like a mountain.
The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant nest.
He couldn't let Zhang Qiling be that ant, so he had to remove the battery board.After this period of time has passed, it's good to put it on again... At least, wait until my parents let go.
A little girl skipped past, stopped in front of him, pinched her nose and said, it stinks.
Wu Xie quickly pinched the cigarette butt, covered her mouth and nose with her hands to prevent the smell of smoke from leaking out, smiled at her apologetically, and play with you, uncle is smoking and will choke you.
Are you unhappy?Eyes are red.The little girl let go of her hand, raised her head and asked him.
No, uncle was smoked. This smoke is not good for children. Go find other children to play with.
The little girl nodded and walked away bouncing around.
When the door was opened, Wu Yiqiong and Wu's mother were sitting on the sofa as grandpas.Wu Xie leaned against the wall by the door to change his shoes, Wu Yiqiong snorted coldly: You still know how to come back?
Wu Yiqiong!Another loud shout, this is a feminist family, Wu Xie deeply agrees.He looked at the place where the second elder was sitting, went to the bathroom and placed the low stool in front of the living room, and sat on it with his long legs, his posture was a little funny.
What are you doing sitting here?Mother Wu asked strangely.
Wu Xie looked at her, got up and removed the low stool, and sat cross-legged on the floor.
The two stared wide-eyed as if they were watching a psychopath.
Wu Xie had no choice but to adjust his posture and knelt down, his body straightened and his head bowed.
This is my lowest stance.he said.
……
You get up and talk first.Mother Wu spoke with a crying voice.
Wu Xie took a deep breath before saying, no need.I did this wrong, I shouldn’t hide it from you, it’s fine to kneel—at least my attitude is good, I hope you can forgive me.
Do you want to change it?Wu Yiqiong asked him a second time.
I was born gay, it's a destiny and there's no way to change it.Wu Xiedao, thinking silently, even if your son was raped, it was destined by God and cannot be changed.
Then you break up with him, quit your job, and come back to Hangzhou.
No.
why not!Wu Yiqiong was furious.
Dad, what I'm going to say is the exact opposite of what you are saying.I will not break up with him, I will marry him.Wu Xie raised her head and met her father's sharp gaze.
impossible.
Nothing is impossible.Wu Xie calmly continued, "Dad, I have grown up and am independent financially and independently. It is my freedom to have a boyfriend or a girlfriend."You taught me from a young age, don't associate with dubious people, Zhang Qiling is not a dubious person, he is a good person, he will respect you like me...
You haven't grown up at all!Wu Yiqiong roared, his voice trembling, you are with a man, you let
