Solstice Secrets

New Year's Eve is not a big festival for northerners. Mother Ling originally wanted to invite Zhuang Zhou to have a meal at home, but as soon as she raised the idea, Father Ling resolutely vetoed it.He said that the juniors are just dating, so don't take it too seriously at home.Besides, the Zhuang family's parents haven't made a statement yet, so what's the matter with them hurriedly treating Zhuangzhou as a family?Mama Ling felt that the latter sentence was the key point.But it was undeniable that what Ling's father said was reasonable, so she stopped insisting.

Ling Lidong's impression of Zhuangzhou was limited to the contact in the hospital, he felt that Zhuangzhou's work was reasonable.But to admit that this is his brother's boyfriend... He felt a little bit reluctant.So he agrees with Papa Ling's opinion very much.Han Min is Ling Dongzhi's sister-in-law, it is inconvenient for her to express her opinion on my uncle's private affairs, so naturally she will respond to what the old couple say.But different from others, she has a very good impression of Zhuangzhou.At that time, Ling Dongzhi was sent for emergency treatment, and even Ling Lidong was confused when he entered the hospital gate. As a result, this man not only thought of inviting experts to participate in the treatment, but also worried about the rest of his family to accompany him, which showed that he was a calm and thoughtful person.Ling Dongzhi's carefree personality just needs such a person to match him.

She only dared to whisper this to Ling Ma, Ling Lidong listened impatiently.But when Ling Dongzhi came back, she still took the initiative to express her wishes, "Work hard, Dong Zhi, I hope that next time I can bring someone of yours back for the holiday."

Ling Dongzhi smiled and handed her a jewelry box, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Han Min took it with a smile, "I'm not welcome."

Ling Dongzhi brought a lot of gifts, big and small, Ling's father, Ling's mother and Ling Lidong were as clear as a mirror in their hearts, and no one would tell the truth.Only Baby Ling was so happy to receive a lot of presents that he wandered around Lingdong Solstice all day long.After waking up from sleep in the afternoon, he refused to play at home honestly, insisting on Ling Dongzhi to take him to see Big Dog.At that time, Ling Dongzhi just said it casually, but she didn't expect Ling Baobao to remember it so clearly. Sure enough, adults can't deceive children casually.Ling Dongzhi had no choice but to call Zhuang Zhou and make an appointment to meet at Mingzhu Square.

Ling Dongzhi had never taken Ling Baobao out before, fearing that something might go wrong, and he didn't dare to drive by himself, so he took a taxi and rushed to Mingzhu Square.When they got out of the car, Ling Dongzhi was about to take out his mobile phone to contact Zhuang Zhou, but Ling Baobao was already jumping up and shouting, "Uncle, there is a big dog over there, black and white, so beautiful!"

Looking in the direction of his little finger, he saw Zhuang Zhou walking slowly on the lawn with Brown Sugar in his hand.Ling Dongzhi's heart jumped slightly, and he felt that what he saw in front of him was like a vivid oil painting. The background was the yellow sand and blue sea in the distance, the clouds were light and the sky was high, and the close-up was this man in a military-style leather jacket.Dogs are handsome, and men with broad shoulders and long legs are even more handsome.

Ling Dongzhi couldn't help laughing.

Ling Baobao was still hopping beside him, "Uncle, Uncle, can you take me over to have a look, I'll take a look!"

Ling Dongzhi smiled and said, "That's the beautiful dog I mentioned, named Brown Tang. I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Ling Baobao blinked his big watery eyes and nodded vigorously, "Where's that uncle?"

Ling Dongzhi rubbed his chin, and smiled strangely, "You can call him...Little Aunt."

Baby Ling opened his mouth wide, "...Huh?"

Zhuang Zhou, who had already come to the front, twitched the corners of his mouth, stretched out his hand and gently pinched his neck, "You're still talking nonsense with the child." Then he knelt down and stretched out a hand to Ling Baobao, "Ling Baobao , Hello, I'm Zhuang Zhou, you can call me Uncle Zhuang."

It was the first time that Ling Baobao was introduced so seriously by an adult, and his little expression immediately became serious.He imitated Zhuang Zhou's way and shook this big hand, "Hello, Uncle Zhuang, my name is Ling Bao Bao, you can call me Bao Bao."

Zhuang Zhou smiled and praised him, "You're so cute."

Baby Ling kept looking at Brown Tang. Zhuang Zhou rubbed Brown Tang's head and said with a smile, "This is my son, named Brown Tang. He's a good boy."

Baby Ling leaned over salivating greedily, and stretched out a hand towards Brown Tang, "Hello Brown Tang, I'm Baby Ling. I'm... I'm my father's son, uh, not this person." The pleasing little eyes glanced at Ling Dongzhi.

Midwinter Solstice, "..."

Brown Tang hesitated for a moment, raised his paw and shook hands with Ling Baobao.

Ling Baobao's excited eyes lit up, "Oh, uncle, look quickly! It shook my hand!"

Brown Tang turned his head away as if he couldn't stand it, "...so stupid."

Ling Dongzhi reached out and touched it, "Brown Tang, in the eyes of children, you are like an angel."

Brown Sugar looked at him suspiciously.

"Really," Ling Dongzhi knelt down to look at it, and said with a smile, "If you don't believe me, look at Baby Ling's eyes. Among human beings, children are the most pure and innocent. Their feelings are the most pure and kind, um, just like you Same." Although you compare two.

Brown Sugar was immediately moved.The dog poked its head over and rubbed Ling Baobao's chest.Baby Ling hugged its neck and laughed excitedly.

Looking at this scene, Zhuang Zhou felt a strange feeling in his heart again.But it is undeniable that Ling Dongzhi's eyes look very, very moving, just like the children he described: innocent, kind, and spotless.Zhuang Zhou's heart softened, and he couldn't help reaching out his hand and gently touching his cheek, "Winter Solstice, I plan to go to Shanghai tomorrow and come back in two or three days."

Ling Dongzhi's heart skipped a beat, "Go to a showdown?"

Zhuang Zhou nodded, "My dad and Aunt Anne will come back about the day before New Year's Eve, and I plan to come back before they come back. So this week will be very busy."

For some reason, Ling Dongzhi suddenly felt a little uneasy, "You usually go to Shanghai during Chinese New Year?"

Zhuang Zhou shook his head, "I've been there a few times, but she didn't really want to see me. She stopped going later, and just called to say hello and New Year's greetings. But it's best to tell them face-to-face for such a big event as getting married. "

Ling Dongzhi's cheeks warmed slightly, "Who wants to marry you?"

Zhuang Zhou smiled and squeezed his hand, "When the new year is over, spring will bloom, let's get married."

Ling Dongzhi turned his face away, "Wait until you have explained everything to your family before you talk nonsense with me!"

Zhuang Zhou nodded with a smile, "Okay. Then I will come to the door to propose marriage in person."

Ling Dongzhi withdrew his hand. Although there were not many people in the square, it was a public place after all, so it was inappropriate to do such an intimate gesture.He thought of the brother Xia Mo described by Zhuang Zhou, and felt a faint feeling of unhappiness in his heart.Some people may be like this, born with evil spirits.

"Why don't we talk about it later," Ling Dongzhi tugged at his sleeve, "Don't be in such a hurry."

Zhuang Zhou said with a smile: "I still want to come to our parents to pay New Year's greetings in person during the Chinese New Year. Don't be in such a hurry. I don't have the qualifications to enter your gate."

Ling Dongzhi snorted, with an extremely proud expression on his face.

Zhuang Zhou smiled and rubbed his head, "Help me take care of Brown Tang these few days, that kid Zhuang Lin is unreliable and stays away all day. I don't have the patience to walk him every day."

Ling Dongzhi glanced at Brown Tang, who was playing with Baby Ling not far away, and nodded, "This is no problem."

Brown Tang, who was flying back, happened to hear these two words, and his expression froze, "Huh?"

Ling Dongzhi patted it on the head, "Your daddy is going to Shanghai to visit his mother, and he won't be back in two days. I will accompany you for two days. If you want to eat or play, you should mention it early."

Brown Tang's attention was attracted by his last sentence, and after pondering for a while, he realized that the key point of this sentence was the first half of the sentence, and suddenly became sad, and threw himself on Zhuang Zhou and barked.

Zhuang Zhou couldn't laugh or cry because of it, "Why does it seem to understand?"

"Of course I understand," Ling Dongzhi explained to him, "dogs' radars are super sensitive, even if they don't understand what you say, they can still guess what you want to express from your eyes, expressions and tone of voice."

Panting, Baby Ling ran over and plunged into Ling Dongzhi's arms, panting with excitement, "Uncle, let's take the brown sugar home."

Seeing Brown Tang's disdainful eyes, Ling Dongzhi said with a smile: "Brown Tang likes sports very much. Our house doesn't have a yard, so it can't run away. It will be very depressed. But I can often take it out for a walk and let you play with it. "

Brown Tang couldn't hold back, and glanced at Ling Dongzhi.His dad is busy with work, and he often can't even guarantee the off-duty time on weekdays. The only time to take him out to play is on holidays.That young master Zhuang Lin is more willing to go out with his little buddies when he has time, if Ling Dongzhi can bring him out often...

Well, living with him seems to be a good idea.At least my various needs in daily life can be guaranteed, and there will be no embarrassing incidents of being forced to play Frisbee.The most important point is to have someone to chat with.Brown Tang glanced at Ling Dongzhi again, when he reached out to rub its head, it felt a little awkward, then lowered its head and rubbed it obediently in his palm.

Before Zhuang Zhou left, he brought Zhuang Lin to his home and asked him to be Ling Dongzhi's companion.Zhuang Lin naturally agreed, his second brother's base is much closer to the city center than the old house, and it is naturally much more convenient to contact his classmates and friends to go out and play together.What's more, he still lives with Ling Dongzhi and has such a teacher to guide him personally. Compared with the kids from the same school who want to enter the Academy of Fine Arts, he is simply much luckier.

Although Zhuang Zhou didn't say it too clearly, Zhuang Lin could somewhat guess what Zhuang Zhou was thinking.With him here, in case his parents come back early, he can act as a buffer, lest the two parties meet unexpectedly and cause any irreconcilable conflicts.If it was his elder brother Xia Mo who came, for Ling Dongzhi, he would be a protective measure.Because at the end of summer, he was the one who bothered him first, the child born to his father and another woman, and the partner his younger brother found next.

Zhuang Lin didn't feel bad about his second brother's arrangement. They are brothers, and they should help each other.Furthermore, from Zhuang Lin's point of view, Zhuang's second child can entrust his lover to him, which shows his trust in his younger brother.

Ling Dongzhi didn't think about it that much, if he knew the twists and turns in the hearts of these two people, he would probably touch Zhuang Lin's head and sigh in pity, "Young man, you have been fooled again."

Zhuang Lin seized the opportunity to vaccinate Ling Dongzhi, "You must be fully prepared, you will definitely see my parents in a few days, my mother is not a problem, she has been reading that kind of strange novels, It’s like the idiot emperor married a male queen. He also told me that in the future, he will find a true love partner to live with, and gender doesn’t matter. So, she will definitely be on your side, the important thing is my dad!” He said and made a fist gesture.

Ling Dongzhi sat lazily on the carpet and combed Brown Sugar, and three wild cats slept in a big basket covered with a blanket beside the fireplace.Brown Tang was also lazy, it felt that what Zhuang Lin said was nonsense.Alas, human life is really troublesome. If you want to find someone to live with, you have to consider the opinions of your parents.Dogs and cats like them, where would there be such troubles.

"My dad just likes to pretend," Zhuang Lin revealed a little information to him, "He just likes to put on airs, even if he is not angry in his heart, he will pretend to be very angry, until you are sincere, sincere, and tearful Only when you repeatedly admit your mistakes, will he forgive you..." Zhuang Lin stroked his chin and asked him thoughtfully, "Why do you think this sounds so bad? This problem is not Inherited?"

Midwinter Solstice, "..."

"Anyway, both of them are easy to deal with," Zhuang Lin waved his hand, "I've already ventilated my mother, let her give my father some pillow blowing, and then don't make it too difficult for you. I'm still very happy to have you as me Second sister-in-law's."

Just as Ling Dongzhi was about to speak, he heard a rush of meowing from the corner of the room, and three wild cats came out of their dens, one by one blowing the fur on their backs, with fierce eyes.At the same time, Brown Tang, who was nestled in his arms, stood up suddenly, his eyes fixed on the door of the living room, his fangs on both sides were exposed, and he squeezed out of his throat when he encountered a threat. whining sound.

Ling Dongzhi looked at the door of the living room in surprise.

I heard a man's voice behind the porch saying coldly: "Of course you would be happy to let him be your second sister-in-law. A son without offspring is not qualified to be an heir. In this way, the family property of the dealer will belong to you two It's gone."

Zhuang Lin was stunned for a moment, and then flew into a rage: "You fucking shit!"
