subtle trapping

Warm sun in winter, clear blue sky.

Gu Lixia and Lu Jinchu came to the mandarin duck pool hidden in the corner following the memory of last time, they looked at each other and smiled, the hot air was entangled around them, the soup pool was very comfortable.

"Gu Dabao, I'm sorry." Lu Jinchu said.

During the days when Bai Yu came to the house, both of them felt unhappy. Lu Jinchu's natural way, Bai Yu came for him.

"If I don't want to leave tomorrow, he will not leave if I stay here." Lu Jinchu said.

Gu Lixia disagreed, "No, we agreed to celebrate the New Year together this year, and if you leave, I won't worry about him following you back and pestering you."

"But……"

"No, but the soldiers will block the water and cover it with soil. Let's take our time and there will always be a solution." Gu Lixia said.

The two of them soaked comfortably in the hot spring. Gu Lixia touched Lu Jinchu's waist and said, "When did you get your tattoo?"

Lu Jinchu smiled, "Does it look good?" When Lu Jinchu moved his waist, the fish tattoo on his waist moved accordingly, sexy and provocative, Gu Lixia touched the tattoo and said, "Well, it's very pretty."

"I got this tattoo during the years when I went abroad. At that time, I felt that my life was very gloomy. Once my roommate took me to see an art exhibition. There was a painting of a mermaid. I fell in love with it immediately. The mermaid looks very lonely, but she is extremely free, I am very envious."

"So, you got a mermaid tattoo." Gu Lixia said.

"Well, the little brother with the tattoo said that this fish is very suitable for me, it is very perfect, and he even took a photo and said that it will be used as a signboard." Lu Jinchu smiled.

Gu Lixia touched Lu Jinchu's tattoo, and kissed the beautiful mermaid. The kiss made Lu Jinchu tickle, trembling with a smile, "Hey, itchy, so itchy..."

When the two came back from the hot spring village, as soon as Gu Lixia entered the door, Sanbao rushed forward. Gu Lixia smiled and touched Sanbao's neck to tickle him. Grandma saw the two came back, looked at them, wanted to say something but didn't Say it.

Gu Lixia had a hunch that something was wrong, grandma's attitude was very strange, Gu Lixia went to the kitchen to help grandma, but grandma didn't drive him out this time, Gu Lixia asked: "Grandma, what are you having for dinner tonight?"

Grandma said: "Make dumplings at night, with big meat fillings."

"Is there any celery stuffing? Jinchu likes to eat celery." Gu Lixia said casually.

Grandma stopped chopping the meat with her hands, and said, "There are only big meat fillings."

"Oh, the meaty ones are also delicious. I like the dumplings made by grandma." Gu Lixia said with a smile.

After a while, grandma asked, "Xiawa, where did you say Jinchu's house was, and what did his parents do?"

"Hey, grandma, why are you asking this?"

"It's okay, just ask casually."

"Oh, his parents' family relationship is too complicated. His parents didn't care about him when he was very young." Gu Lixia wanted to make his grandma feel more fond of Lu Jinchu, "He almost starved to death at home , No one cares about him, he can't even find a relative."

Gu Lixia secretly observed grandma, her face seemed to be distressed.

"Later his mother was also missing, and his father was said to be with someone else, and he was always alone."

Grandma was silent and didn't say anything. After a while, she said: "It seems that there is still celery at home. Let's wrap some celery stuffing tonight."

"Okay! Let's pack together later, and I know grandma is the best." Gu Lixia said.

Not only Gu Lixia, but even Lu Jinchu sensed that something was wrong with grandma. Grandpa continued to talk about the past with everyone as usual, but grandma no longer warmed Lu Jinchu as before. Dishes or chatter.

After eating, grandma suddenly said: "Lixia, did Jinchu sleep with you these few days? Why doesn't it look like someone slept in his room."

Both Gu Lixia and Lu Jinchu were taken aback. For a moment, Lu Jinchu was so scared that he was dying. He was even more scared than Gu Lixia, because he had been with his grandparents for so long and had already developed feelings for them. It was his relatives who saw it at the first glance. The longer he got along, the more he couldn't bear it. He was afraid, he was very afraid.

He never dared to imagine what he would do if they found out about their affairs. He even thought about it, or he could secretly be an underground lover with Gu Lixia for the rest of his life. He didn't want his grandparents to be sad, so simple and simple He didn't want to hurt the hearts of the villagers, but he couldn't bear to part with Gu Lixia.

Gu Lixia's heart tightened, but on the surface he said very calmly: "Oh, yes, I happened to discuss something with him at night, and we slept together when we chatted late."

Grandma said: "Don't pester Jinchu to chat all the time, and disturb people's rest. If there is something that you can't chat during the day, you should have a good rest at night."

As soon as grandma said this, Gu Lixia felt that something was wrong, and asked tentatively, "Grandma, did someone tell you something?"

Grandma asked back, "What?" Gu Lixia choked, not knowing what to say.

Lu Jinchu hurriedly said: "Hey, grandma is right, we won't talk tonight, we all go to bed early."

The two went upstairs, Lu Jinchu was about to go to the next door, but was stopped by Gu Lixia, Lu Jinchu said softly, "Good boy, go to sleep."

"No, you sleep with me."

Lu Jinchu gently hooked Gu Lixia's chin, "Be obedient."

In the end, Gu Lixia hugged his pillow and went to Lu Jinchu's room next door. Lu Jinchu was helpless and distressed. Gu Lixia said, "I'm not afraid, and you shouldn't be afraid either."

"Gu Dabao, grandma will be sad if you are treated like this." Lu Jinchu said, Gu Lixia was silent for a while, and then held Lu Jinchu tightly, as if he was afraid that someone would disappear if he was not careful.

After much deliberation, Lu Jinchu had something to do with Bai Yu, so he called Bai Yu, and Bai Yu was very happy to receive the call, "Jinchu, you finally called me."

Lu Jinchu didn't exchange pleasantries, and asked directly: "What did you tell grandma today?"

"What do you say, I didn't say anything."

"Bai Yu, are you still planning to play with me?" Lu Jinchu said coldly, "Is this interesting? If you want to, I think it's better for me to disappear before your eyes. What do you think?" ?”

When Gu Lixia heard Lu Jinchu say this, he hugged Lu Jinchu's waist tightly, and Bai Yu on the other end of the phone paused for a few seconds, and then said: "I just took the unfinished picture to grandma. It’s just a painting, let’s explain the content of the painting by the way.”

"Painting? What painting?" Lu Jinchu asked.

"You know, when we were together, I drew a portrait of Jack and Ennis," Bai Yu chuckled, "They were kissing each other, just like us together, do you remember? In the studio we ..."

Lu Jinchu hung up the phone, bowed her head in silence, like a wounded deer lost in the forest, at a loss what to do.

Gu Lixia put his arms around his waist, "I'm here, Jinchu, I'm..."

Lu Jinchu hugged Gu Lixia and cried.

Tears fell silently, and Gu Lixia's heart ached.

One of Bai Yu's paintings, two or three words, intentional or unintentional, made grandma suspicious. At home, Lu Jinchu could even feel that grandma was observing him and Gu Lixia intentionally or unintentionally.

Gu Lixia and Lu Jinchu were teasing the three treasures together, grandma called Gu Lixia to pick vegetables, Gu Lixia and Lu Jinchu planned to go out for a walk together, grandma said it was cold outside and stayed at home, but the two had to stay upstairs in the front yard Then, grandma came over from time to time to shout or come up to take a look.

Gu Lixia was very speechless and bored. Finally, when grandma asked Gu Lixia to go over again, and when Gu Lixia went over, grandma asked him to sit and chat with him. What's wrong?"

"What's wrong?"

"Jinchu was the one who asked him to come over for the New Year. If you are like this, it's very embarrassing for you to leave him alone and not let him follow you." Gu Lixia said.

At night, Lu Jinchu said to Gu Lixia: "Gu Dabao, I plan to leave tomorrow."

Gu Lixia looked at him nervously, "Why? I already told my grandma, she won't do that again, you..."

Lu Jinchu smiled and said: "No, it's none of grandma's business, I want to go back myself, grandma doesn't feel well when I stay here, and it doesn't feel good for you to be caught between me and grandma, you should coax well during the New Year Grandma, grandma should already be suspicious of us. I'll leave early to avoid accidents. It's almost Chinese New Year, so we can't have an accident at this juncture. People who celebrate Chinese New Year should be happy..."

No matter what Gu Lixia said, it was useless. Lu Jinchu had made up his mind, so Gu Lixia had no choice but to send him off. When grandma learned that Lu Jinchu was leaving, she was so flustered that she didn't know what expression to put on. Good jerky and some mountain products were all packed for Lu Jinchu.

Lu Jinchu smiled and said, "Hey, thank you grandma."

Grandma, a woman who has stayed in the village all her life, is about to see her again, but she doesn't know what to say at this moment, she just keeps saying: "There are still a lot at home, you should bring more."

Grandpa was very puzzled, "Don't you want to celebrate the New Year together? Why are you going back when you're going to be [-] soon?"

Gu Lixia didn't know what to say, grandma also turned around and said nothing, Lu Jinchu said with a smile: "Come again if you have a chance, I have something to settle over there, so I won't celebrate the New Year with my grandparents this year. "

Grandpa was quite regretful, "I still want to hear you play an erhu."

Lu Jinchu smiled: "I will definitely give you one if I have the chance."

When Gu Lixia went to see Lu Jinchu off, he felt very uncomfortable and felt that he was useless. One side was Lu Jinchu, and the other was grandparents. Can't give up, can't compromise on either side.

"Hey, don't be so sad, it's not like I won't see you anymore," Lu Jinchu stroked Gu Lixia's cheek, "Spend time with your grandparents during the Chinese New Year, the family and Meimei are more important than anything else, we wait you come back."

Gu Lixia unbuckled his seat belt, hugged Lu Jinchu, "I will call you every day, you have a bad stomach, don't drink too much alcohol, if you think Sambo is troublesome, wait for me to come back and we will pick it up."

"Ok, I know."

Gu Lixia watched Lu Jinchu's car leave, and felt a sense of sadness, as if something had changed after leaving this time.
