remain silent

The two sat on the hillside for a while, and Han Zhong called Han Chenxin and told him to go to the second uncle's house for lunch.

Han Chenxin and Sun Zheyang walked down the mountain together, and when they got near Erbo's house, they saw several young people gathered together.

Those young people, Han Chenxin, all knew each other. They were all members of the Han family. Some lived in the mountains, while others had already left their hometown and came back after Chinese New Year.

One of them was tall and thin. He was the kid who hit Han Chenxin with a stone that year. He belonged to the fourth uncle's family. His name was Han Jun. He is now in his 20s and is going to get married next year.

Several young people gathered together, Han Jun saw Sun Zheyang from a distance, and greeted him: "Brother Cheng!"

Sun Zheyang smiled and raised his hand, walking towards them.

Han Chenxin stopped unconsciously. He was not familiar with the young people in his hometown, and many of them still couldn't match their names. These people heard that Sun Zheyang was back and came to see him. No one wanted to see Han Chenxin.

Although we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, Sun Zheyang is still very familiar. He walked over and beat Han Jun on the shoulder, and then called out everyone's names one by one. He can roughly match those who really can't remember the names. Number.

Han Chenxin saw them chatting and laughing, so he walked away silently. He had just walked a few steps when he heard someone calling his name. He turned around and saw a woman.

The woman looked young in appearance and appearance, but Han Chenxin knew that she was not young anymore. She was a cousin of the second uncle's family. Her name was Han Xiaoqin. She went abroad to study a few years ago, and then came back to work in the university's laboratory.

She is older than Sun Zheyang, but she has never been married.

The old Han family is traditional and can't accept a woman not getting married at such an age, but she is not in a hurry and lives very comfortably.

Han Xiaoqin is very beautiful, tall and white, with a long white down jacket paired with knee-length boots and short skirts, which looks extraordinarily fashionable in this small mountain village.

She greeted Han Chenxin with a smile, then walked over, and walked towards the second uncle's house with Han Chenxin.

Han Chenxin asked her: "You haven't seen my brother for a long time, right? Why don't you talk to him a little more?"

"Your brother?" Han Xiaoqin looked at him with a surprised smile, "I thought you didn't recognize that was your brother."

"Why?" Han Chen didn't understand.

Han Xiaoqin said: "I heard from your father that he doesn't get along well with your family."

Han Chenxin gave a soft "hmm", "He just refuses to recognize us."

Han Xiaoqin heard the words and said, "Actually, it's normal if he doesn't recognize it."

Han Chenxin didn't say anything.

Han Xiaoqin walked with him for a while, then said: "Chencheng has changed so much, I don't know him anymore."

"Is there?" Han Chenxin said.

Han Xiaoqin nodded, "The temperament has changed. When I was young, I was very cheerful and mischievous. After running all over the mountains and plains, now I have become more serious."

When Han Chenxin heard her talking about Sun Zheyang when he was a child, he suddenly felt a little curious, because it was a Sun Zheyang he had never met before. The first time he had an impression of Sun Zheyang, he was already attracted by Sun Zheyang. It's time for Yang E to stop his bicycle fiercely.

The two arrived at the second uncle's house without saying a few words. It was a big family for lunch, and this time there was plenty of time, and the wine bottle was placed on the table early in the morning.

Han Chenxin was not good at this kind of entertainment, and he couldn't say anything nice about it. When someone came to toast him, he couldn't say anything to refuse, and he couldn't be cold-faced and hurt his face, but he couldn't take it anymore.

Sun Zheyang saw a few young people drinking Han Chenxin's wine as though they had made a deal. Han Chenxin's face turned red from drinking, and finally he couldn't sit still. He stood up, walked behind Han Chenxin, and whipped him. With the wine glass in his hand, he said, "I'll help him drink."

Since returning to his hometown, everyone has treated Sun Zheyang very politely. After all, the relationship is a little delicate. Although everyone has different opinions on Han Zhong’s divorce, generally speaking, the traditional Chinese concept is to persuade The family is harmonious, and no one is willing to provoke conflicts.

It was unreasonable for Sun Zheyang to come forward to help Han Chenxin block the wine, and those young people who mixed the toast didn't know whether they should continue or not.

Sun Zheyang smiled indifferently, and said, "What's the matter? I wouldn't drink it if I were you? Do you look down on me?"

Hearing what he said, several young people laughed and started drinking again.

But in the back, Han Chen was still very drunk, and Sun Zheyang helped him back to the room and asked him to sit by the bed.

Han Chenxin didn't say a word, just sat by the bed in a daze.

Sun Zheyang took the cup out to his aunt and poured a cup of hot water back. Seeing that Han Chenxin was still sitting upright, he said, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Han Chen's heart remained silent.

Sun Zheyang walked to the bedside with the cup and asked him, "Do you want some water?"

Han Chenxin didn't answer him.

Sun Zheyang reached out and passed the quilt to Han Chenxin's lips.

Han Chenxin took a look, then suddenly leaned forward and hugged Sun Zheyang's waist.

The cup in Sun Zheyang's hand was not steady and fell to the ground, spilling all the hot water.

But Han Chenxin still hugged Sun Zheyang's waist tightly and didn't let go. He pressed his face against Sun Zheyang's lower abdomen, rubbed it lightly, and then raised his head to look at Sun Zheyang.

Sun Zheyang lowered his head and looked at Han Chenxin. He saw that Han Chenxin's cheeks were flushed because of drunkenness, and his eyes were shining with water.

Han Chenxin opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to speak, but his throat was so dry that he said "You..." but couldn't make a sound.

At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Han Xiaoqin shouted: "Han Chenxin," stepped in from the outside, and was stunned when she saw Han Chenxin sitting on the edge of the bed hugging Sun Zheyang.

Han Chenxin hadn't recovered yet.

Sun Zheyang grabbed Han Chenxin by the collar and pulled him away, then pushed him onto the bed with one hand, and said, "Don't get drunk."

Han Chenxin struggled for a while and wanted to sit up, but Sun Zheyang pressed his hand on his chest and failed, so he gave up and raised his arms to cover his face in discomfort.

Han Xiaoqin walked over and asked, "Is he all right?"

Sun Zheyang reached out to help him take off his shoes, and said, "Drinking is stupid."

Seeing that Han Chenxin had closed her eyes, Han Xiaoqin said regretfully, "I'm really drunk. I originally asked him to go hiking together in the afternoon."

Sun Zheyang didn't say a word.

Han Xiaoqin saw the water cup that fell on the ground and the spreading water stains, and then glanced at Sun Zheyang, who was covering Han Chenxin with a quilt, squatted down, picked up the cup and put it on the table, and said to Sun Zheyang: "You two How is Nian? I haven't seen you for a long time."

"That's it," Sun Zheyang said, turned around and walked out of the house. He went to borrow a mop from his aunt to wipe the water in the house clean.

When he came back, Han Xiaoqin hadn't left yet, sitting on the edge of the table as if waiting for him.

When Sun Zheyang came in to mop the floor, Han Xiaoqin asked, "How is Aunt Fifth?"

Sun Zheyang paused and said, "Your fifth aunt has been replaced."

Han Xiaoqin said: "I'm used to being called. Han Chenxin's mother is always called Aunt Xu."

Sun Zheyang then replied: "My mother is dead."

In fact, Han Zhong told the second child's family about this, but Han Xiaoqin was not there at the time, so I only found out now, she stood up and said, "I'm sorry."

Sun Zheyang shook his head.

Han Xiaoqin saw that he didn't intend to say more, so she said: "Then I won't bother you, you guys go to rest, and I'll call you for dinner tonight."

When Han Xiaoqin left, Sun Zheyang didn't stay in the room all the time, he went out to grandma's room and sat for a while.

Grandma Han is still not awake, maybe she is, but she doesn't even have the strength to open her eyes.

Han Chenxin slept all afternoon, and he was only awake when Han Xiaoqin came to ask him to have dinner.

Han Chenxin sat by the bed and put on his shoes. He wanted to talk, but he felt very thirsty. After putting on his shoes, he looked around for water.

Han Xiaoqin asked him, "What are you looking for?"

Han Chenxin stood up, "I'll go to the kitchen and pour some water."

Before he left the room, Han Xiaoqin said, "You and your brother have a pretty good relationship."

"Huh?" Han Chenxin didn't understand why she said that. He couldn't remember how he came back to his room at noon.

Han Xiaoqin smiled, "When I came to see you at noon, I saw you hugging your brother and acting like a spoiled child. You are such a big man."

Han Chenxin froze for a moment. He stood there for a while, unable to remember how he hugged Sun Zheyang and acted like a baby, but he couldn't open his mouth to ask. Finally, he opened the door and went out without saying anything.

Dinner was eaten at the eldest aunt's house. Han Zhong and the others drank a lot at noon, so they didn't dare to drink any more at night.

Han Chenxin always felt uncomfortable in his throat and had a headache. He knew it was because of drunkenness, but the temperature on the mountain was low, so he was also a little worried about catching a cold.

Sun Zheyang came late and sat in the vacant seat next to Han Chenxin.

Han Chenxin didn't turn his head to look at him, he just felt the chill Sun Zheyang brought in from outside.

Han Chenxin reached for the cup, but Sun Zheyang was also reaching for the cup.

When the fingers of the two touched the table, Han Chenxin immediately withdrew his hand, while Sun Zheyang paused for a moment, then held the cup with his fingers, and gently pushed it in front of Han Chenxin.

Han Chenxin looked at the water glass in a daze, then turned to look at Sun Zheyang, only to realize that Sun Zheyang had been looking at him.

For no reason, Han Chenxin felt a little hot, pulled the skirt of his clothes, then reached for the cup and took a sip of water.
