my bamboo horse rider

Typhoon day, heavy rain.

Also in the suburbs, a funeral home not far from the nursing home.

Zheng Xiaoqin sat blankly outside the rented mourning hall.

Tang Guohai has not appeared yet.

Some of the smart friends from Tang Guohai's company and social circle came one after another, simply expressing their condolences, not lukewarm.Zheng Xiaoqin knew very well that these people were thinking that if she and Tang Guohai's relationship got better again, if they didn't show face today, they would be too embarrassed to meet in the future, and if she and Tang Guohai broke up like this, there would be no loss.That's why these people are willing to show their faces.It's not because of Zheng Xiaoqin's face - if she has completely lost her identity as Mrs. Tang, these people will not even show their faces.

As for Zheng Xiaoqin's circle of relatives and friends, Zheng Xiaoqin's father and daughter are not easy to get along with. Most of Zheng Xiaoqin's mother's relatives are out of town. Zheng Xiaoqin's father and daughter have always been unwilling to talk to each other, and now they have no contact.On Zheng's side, there are a few relatives who are still in contact, but they are of little importance. Whether they come or not, in Zheng Xiaoqin's eyes, it is at most a fringe.For other plastic friendships, those people would be a thorn in the side if those people showed up in a happy family, and it would only make Zheng Xiaoqin feel more humiliated.Fortunately, by virtue of the custom of "don't tell the truth", I didn't advertise it widely, and even uncharacteristically, I didn't even post it on Moments.

Therefore, the mourning hall is not lively.

It is far from satisfying Zheng Xiaoqin's self-righteous self-esteem.

But this is not the only reason why Zheng Xiaoqin was in a daze. The other half of the reason is that since she received the notice last night and calmly called a car to wake her up to go with her, to now taking care of the guests and handing over to the funeral home staff, most of the things are Tang Jin did it.

She thought that Jinjin, a soft-hearted child, would cry so hard that he didn't know what to do when his grandfather left.

Seeing each other day by day, getting along day and night, she felt that Tang Jin seemed to have grown a lot quietly in a place she couldn't see, which surprised her.

She watches in silence, playing a heartbroken daughter.

At this moment, Tang Jin was seeing off a guest. That person was Tang Guohai's right-hand assistant. He must have been instructed by Tang Guohai. It's a grown up.

Looking at her son's tall back, she suddenly felt that life was like a dream.

Then her phone rang to remind her that Tang Guohai had sent a Moments of condolence for his father-in-law, and the accompanying photo was apparently just sent by his right-hand assistant.In an instant, many people praised him, and there were many comments praising Mr. Tang as a son-in-law who is really affectionate.

Zheng Xiaoqin lowered her head slightly, hiding her mocking smile, but soon also posted a heartbroken circle of friends.

Because since Tang Guohai gave this face, there must be a lot of guests who came to express their condolences. Her plastic friends came, and they can only be envious, so now, she can rest assured to spread the word.

She looked up and found a new guest.

The man was tall and tall, holding a black umbrella. Tang Jin was going to see the guest out, but he was standing under the eaves. under the umbrella.

The man shook Tang Jin's elbow, half led Tang Jin back to the eaves, put away the umbrella, and revealed a face similar to his mother's, so damn good.

Qin Beichen.

Zheng Xiaoqin clenched her teeth.

The moment Tang Jin saw Qin Beichen, Tang Jin suddenly couldn't remember how he was able to help take care of it from last night until now.

When he came to his senses, he impulsively got under Qin Beichen's umbrella.

Qin Beichen is wearing a black shirt, the fabric is very thin and close-fitting, which properly outlines Qin Beichen's beautiful shoulders and narrow waist. The long sleeves are neatly folded to the elbows, revealing smooth forearms.

Tang Jin forced himself to smile: "You are here."

Qin Beichen lowered his eyes slightly, and held Tang Jin's elbow. Tang Jin was wearing a white T-shirt. Tang Jin didn't have time to go home and change from last night until now. I chose a white one in the closet.

It is short-sleeved, so Tang Jin's elbows are very cold.The typhoon weather was not very hot, just now Tang Jin hurriedly walked under Qin Beichen's umbrella and got a few steps of rain.

Qin Beichen clenched his elbows tighter, and led Tang Jin back to the eaves, almost half-embracing Tang Jin, with his elbows lightly resting on Tang Jin's back, as if to give him a support point.

"Condolences."

Qin Beichen put away the umbrella and put it in the umbrella bucket, turned around, and said this first.

Tang Jin thought for a while and said, "Actually, I'm not particularly sad."

Of course it is not without sadness. Compared with the grandparents who left too early and have no impression, grandpa and grandma are the elders who took care of Tang Jin when he was young. This young grandson and grandfather are not completely without kindness and kindness.

Coupled with the fact that Tang Jin witnessed this man's loss of majesty in his later years, it was impossible for Tang Jin not to feel sad about the death of his grandfather.

But it's more of a confusion.Why did grandpa call out grandma's name at that time?Does he regret it?Regret not being nicer to grandma when she was alive?

Or does he just miss that there was once such a woman who took good care of him and worked hard?

Is this love?Is it family?

Love, family affection, marriage, is this what it looks like?

These confusions made Tang Jin even more sad.

So Tang Jin paused, and added in a low voice: "It's not that I'm not sad."

After listening, Qin Beichen leaned over and gave Tang Jin a hug.

The hug was as brief as any pair of good brothers in the world would cheer, and it broke at the touch of a button, above board.

Tang Jin got infinite warmth from it.

He cheered up and said, "I'll take you in."

Qin Beichen responded with a gentle hum.

So Tang Jin took Qin Beichen into the mourning hall to worship. Qin Beichen burned incense and saluted according to the procedure. Tang Jin responded to the guests as before, standing by the host's side. Finally, according to etiquette, he bowed slightly to Qin Beichen, which means returning the gift and thanking him. .

He didn't know why he felt a little embarrassed.

Qin Beichen didn't bother him much, Tang Jin sent him out of the mourning hall, and the two stood under the eaves again, Qin Beichen was holding an umbrella in his hand, Tang Jin first asked if there was a car, and then asked if he was busy today, Qin Beichen patiently Back, the driver is waiting in the parking lot, not too busy.

Tang Jin didn't know what else to ask, but he didn't want to end the topic.

Qin Beichen talked about family matters, and said that the Qin family received a big envelope from FedEx last night, which contained his elder brother's wedding card. It has been three months since the wedding date on it. The bride is a blonde foreign woman. The old man of the family, his uncle and aunt were all very angry, and the whole Qin family had a dignified atmosphere.

Tang Jin seemed to be very concerned about listening, and Qin Beichen also seemed to be very concerned about talking. In fact, none of them cared about this matter. Tang Jin just didn't want Qin Beichen to leave so soon, and Qin Beichen just followed Tang Jin's direction. The mind procrastinates for time.

But after all, this is the mourning hall of Mr. Zheng, guests came one after another, and Zheng Xiaoqin didn't know where to go, so Tang Jin had to say goodbye to Qin Beichen.

Tang Jin didn't want to watch Qin Beichen leave, so he turned and went back to the mourning hall.

Holding an umbrella, Qin Beichen walked down the long stairs.It is very high here, because it is a typhoon day, the air is quite fresh, the heavy rain is constant, the vision is fairly clear, and the nearby green mountains can be seen.

Qin Beichen was neither surprised nor surprised to see Zheng Xiaoqin waiting halfway with an umbrella.

Zheng Xiaoqin was dressed in a white high-end suit, her eyes were fixed on Qin Beichen, and she didn't look at her eyes, she was considered a rare beauty at this age.But with the look in her eyes, if she appeared in a movie, it would be a bit scary.

"Hello, Auntie," Qin Beichen stopped and said politely.

Zheng Xiaoqin said angrily: "You monster kid, do you want to make me divorce to be happy!"

Qin Beichen said coldly: "Auntie was joking, what does it matter to me whether you get divorced or not?"

"You!" Zheng Xiaoqin was just venting her anger on others, she couldn't say anything, she paused for a long time before finding an excuse, "You told me on purpose, Tang Guohai only helped that bitch because she felt sorry for her." It's you who sow discord for your son to keep his student status!"

Qin Beichen didn't seem to care about Zheng Xiaoqin's random accusations at all, and said like a narrator: "Ms. Huang has many courtiers, and there are many famous people in S City. It's just that men inevitably like the new and hate the old. Ms. Huang is far less beautiful now than she used to be. For a trivial matter, Tang Guohai had to be asked for help. However, Tang Guohai has indeed lived up to the entrustment of the beautiful woman, and he is really infatuated."

These words are heart-pounding, and even Qin Beichen knows about Tang Guohai's affair, how widely spread it is, and whether she has taken off her green hat for so many years, Zheng Xiaoqin thinks of this, and wants to scratch Qin Beichen to death immediately .

However, Qin Beichen didn't finish his sentence, and continued: "I'm young, so I don't understand the affairs of adults. Are you Mrs. Tang wearing a cuckold, or the ex-wife in the story of a family, what does it have to do with me?" ?”

The way he spoke was really like Cheng Cheng.

Zheng Xiaoqin was so angry that she went crazy immediately, she hastily seized a moral high ground, and said indiscriminately: "Jin Jin is your good friend, his parents may be getting divorced, and you don't care at all, what kind of friend are you!"

Qin Beichen calmly pointed out: "In the first sentence, you scolded me for sowing dissension, and in the second sentence you accused me of not doing anything?"

Knowing that he said something wrong, he was caught by Qin Beichen. He originally came to vent his anger on Qin Beichen, but in the end, Qin Beichen was so angry that Zheng Xiaoqin was choked up, and said with a sneer: "You can talk, to the elders This kind of attitude, you can't say it."

After a short pause, she continued: "You children, you think that divorce is such a good thing. None of you know the hardships of life, and you harm others casually when you live too well. You don't know how to be considerate of your elders. I suffer for Jinjin. How much suffering..."

The more she talked, the more excited she became, and the more she talked, the deeper she got into the drama, and she was almost moved to tears.

Talking like this, she seemed to sense the guilt of neglecting her son's growth vaguely in her heart, and it disappeared with her self-movement.

For Tang Jin's sake, Qin Beichen listened to a few sentences and found that Zheng Xiaoqin's words hadn't changed for many years. He was still in the habit of moral kidnapping, and he was still immersed in self-movement. Qin Beichen felt bored, looked at the time, and interrupted. : "Ms. Zheng."

Qin Beichen seemed to be sincere and said: "I understand your decision. If you leave Tang Guohai, even if Tang Guohai is not unfeeling enough to let you leave the house, your standard of living will definitely plummet, and it is unlikely that you will ever leave the house again. Find the next husband with Tang Guohai's conditions. If you continue like this, maybe Tang Guohai still cares about your hard work for many years, and you are lucky enough to survive to the end. You don't need to say something in front of me. If you really have so much depression If no one confides, you can go to the spiritual center to register, there are professional ones."

Zheng Xiaoqin was so full of thoughts that Qin Beichen ruthlessly put them on the bright side. Suddenly, her face was flushed with anger, and her whole body was shaking with anger. She really wanted to fight Qin Beichen with a knife.

Qin Beichen turned a blind eye, and continued: "You insist on chatting with me, but I do have something to say. Ms. Zheng, we men are very good at forgiving ourselves. The trick of 'pretending to be affectionate to hide discord' can be seen in Tang Guohai's eyes. He will only think that you are asking for peace, he will not realize that you take this as a punishment, and he will not realize that your outburst is the result of intolerable, he will only think that you have to throw a fit from time to time .In the end, apart from you, who reaped the consequences, Tang Jin was the only one hurt by the abnormal family atmosphere created by this trick. Even you should understand how important the college entrance examination is."

Zheng Xiaoqin became angry from embarrassment: "Don't act like I don't care about my son! For Jinjin..."

"I still have something to do." Qin Beichen was too lazy to listen, "Let me go."

Qin Beichen was about to pass Zheng Xiaoqin and go down when a man rushed up to him and protected him behind him.

It is Tang Jin.

Qin Beichen noticed that Tang Jin's umbrella fell on the step platform, and he ran down the steps in the rain. Because the sound of the rain was getting louder, they didn't hear it.

Tang Jin was looking for Zheng Xiaoqin everywhere, only to see two people standing on the stairs below. He knew how much Zheng Xiaoqin was prejudiced against Qin Beichen. At that time, my heart was tense, and I was anxious to go down, walking faster and faster, thinking that the umbrella was in the way, I even put down the umbrella before going down the stairs, and rushed down two or three steps at a time.

When he really rushed in front of the two, Tang Jin subconsciously blocked Qin Beichen behind him. In order to ease the atmosphere, he put on a smiling face and asked Zheng Xiaoqin, "It's raining heavily, what are you talking about standing in the middle of the road?"

The son turned his elbows outward, which was most obvious, and the one who was eccentric was Qin Beichen, who was about to piss her off. Zheng Xiaoqin became angry, and was about to raise his hand in anger. Qin Beichen glanced at her indifferently. On the day when he got out of bed, his roommate Cheng Cheng looked at his eyes inexplicably, and was startled for a moment. He missed the moment to get angry, and said two words "yes" in anger, and stomped up the stairs. The water he stepped on deliberately splashed twice. A boy kicked.

Tang Jin's eyes darkened, and he was exhausted from busy work all night. He could only cheer up deliberately before turning around to look at Qin Beichen: "I'm sorry..."

He didn't know what to say.

Qin Beichen rubbed his hair, and stuffed the warm umbrella handle into his hand: "Go up."

Tang Jin didn't want to take it, so he pushed the umbrella back to Qin Beichen, but Qin Beichen didn't take it, he just said, "Anyway, I'm going home to change clothes before going to the company."

Tang Jin still didn't want Qin Beichen to get in the rain, but Qin Beichen stretched out his hand and stroked the faded white scar on Tang Jin's forehead. Suddenly at a loss.

"Remember to find time to rest."

After Qin Beichen gave his instructions, he walked into the heavy rain.

Tang Jin looked at Qin Beichen's back in the rain and wondered if Qin Beichen had always been too kind to him, so good that now he couldn't find any foolproof evidence to prove what kind of love Qin Beichen had for him.

From worship to cremation, the grandfather's funeral process was very fast, and finally Tang Guohai still appeared.

Tang Jin had no idea about this.

Xu Lai was silent for several days, the reason seems not to be Qin Beichen's speculation about Ronaldo's transfer, Tang Jin only thought of last year's news later, Xu Lai's mother's death day was just a while ago, Xu Lai didn't mention it, Tang Jin was also embarrassed disturb.

On the eve of the World Cup final, Xu Lai sent a WeChat inquiry.
