eighth story

Next is the Chinese New Year.

Nowadays, there is no need to follow those old routines, especially for people like them who have no sense of time when they are busy. The biggest meaning of Chinese New Year is to have a family reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve and enjoy the week-long Spring Festival holiday by the way.

Shen Heng now lives in the suburbs, it is not easy to drive here from the city, and it will be even more troublesome if he encounters a traffic jam.Shen Heng also knew that Xiao Yunhe was busy with work, so he didn't like it when he finally spared a day's rest and always ran to his place. But Xiao Yunhe's attitude on this matter was more stubborn than Shen Heng's. Shen Heng couldn't hold him back, so he let him go, and then turned his head and began to mutter that you come when you come, why do you always take so many things.Xiao Yunhe didn't bother to continue to be stubborn with him this time, so he just stuffed things into the refrigerator, but he couldn't always run to Shen Heng's place, Qin Zhi and Qin Yao came here more often, the former usually replaced the one at home. The chief of the Public Security Bureau, who is always busy with everything, came to ask about his health. The latter usually obeyed her sister-in-law's order to cook a big table of delicious food for Shen Heng, so as to ensure the quality of life of the old man. This made Qin Yao feel like a daughter.

Not long after Wu Qinyang came back from the United States by himself, he was sent to study in science and engineering by his father and mother. After finally taking a vacation, he was kicked out to work by Qin Yao in a fit of anger. Because of various reasons, he often thinks about life in a trance, and it is said that he has not seen Shen Heng for a long time.However, Wu Qinyang remembered to call every now and then to ask Shen Heng how he was doing, or to tell Shen Heng some fun things about the school.

Shen Heng hadn't seen Wu Qinyang for a long time, and he greeted Wu Qinyang with a warm hug as soon as they met.But the golden retriever Xiaoyi forgot about Wu Qinyang, and howled at Wu Qinyang for a long time, staring at the strange boy who was chatting and laughing with his old man, fully alert, ready ready to go.Turning around and seeing Xiao Yunhe, he immediately changed his expression again, hugging one of his thighs humbly, sticking out his tongue "ha~ha~ha~" as a gesture of goodwill, and biting his trouser leg, he kept pushing Xiao Yunhe Dragging to Shen Heng, I still didn't forget to turn my head to look at the big cat standing by, but fortunately a dog couldn't make a frown, so I could only think dissatisfiedly: "Wow, woof, why is he here again? "

The young couple over there, Xuan Jue, were extremely jealous when they met each other, but Xuan Jue watched Wu Qinyang and Shen Heng talking with great interest.Shen Heng has always been very satisfied with his two cheap grandsons, one is gentle and polite and the other is lively and cheerful. At this time, he patted Wu Qinyang on the shoulder and nodded and said, "Not bad, they are taller, and they are almost catching up with your brother."

Wu Qinyang smiled "hehe", turned his head to look at Xuan Jue, and said, "I'm not yet twenty." The implication is that one day he will be able to pass his brother.When Wu Qinyang was in elementary school, Xuan Jue was much taller than him, but now they are almost the same. Wu Qinyang still looks like a student, and looks even taller.Xuan Jue didn't care whether he was tall or short compared to Wu Qinyang. He talked to Shen Heng in the past, and Shen Heng cared about his fingers wrapped in band-aids again.

As soon as Shen Heng mentioned this matter, Xuan Jue's brows twitched again. The situation that night was definitely not normal. He could almost conclude that someone provoked him, but he didn't want his parents to worry, so he kept thinking about it. I dealt with this matter by myself, but it was just in time for the Chinese New Year, and I couldn't spare time for a while. Fortunately, the situation of that day did not happen again in these two days.Xuan Jue had a bitter face, and he couldn't show it too much, so he could only explain vaguely: "Did you not be careful that day..." It made Wu Qinyang settle down his unconstrained guess again, thinking that his brother Is it because I was so angry and self-mutilated to vent my anger.Xiao Yunhe remembered Xuan Jue's inconsistency in his remarks, but frowned indistinctly.

Xuan Jue wished that they would not pay attention to his nails, and said to himself, why do you care about these details when you have nothing to do.If someone else hears it, they will probably reply him that this is not nonsense. Just post a random question and ask, and the five fingers on one hand are all wrapped in band-aids. I couldn't find the armor anymore.

At this time, Xiaoyi also seemed to remember Wu Qinyang's arrival slowly, and smelled him in a circle, then ran to Shen Heng's feet and lay down silently, looking extremely docile.Wu Qinyang stretched out his hand to scratch its chin, and jokingly said: "Yo Xiaoyi, you don't know me since I haven't seen you for a long time. I called you so fierce just now, and my mother always brings you ribs to eat."

Xiao Yi didn't know if he understood, so he grinned and stuck out his tongue.

The four of them sat down and talked for a while. Xiao Yunhe didn't want to waste time. These two days were the peak period for the return journey, and it was a toss and turn, so he asked Xuan Jue and Wu Qinyang to bring the dog cage over.Xiao Yi obviously didn't like this thing very much, he grinned his teeth to please the perverts, and after finding out that it was useless, he had to bear the humiliation and get in, drooping his head and humming there to express his dissatisfaction.Xiao Yunhe actually didn't want to keep it so tight, but because it was the Chinese New Year, there were still some regulations on large dogs. As the chief of the public security bureau, he couldn't know whether he broke the law or not.

The big cat who was standing on two legs outside the cage felt an unprecedented sense of superiority at this moment. He had never been locked up like this before. The pride in the cat's nature returned. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion , he will probably squat down and meow a few times to Xiao Yi seriously, hehehehe.

Wu Qinyang looked at his brother's hesitant expression between smiling and convulsing, and felt that his brother seemed to have returned to the "outside elite and inside stupid cute" mode, but he didn't seem to have it when he looked carefully.囧囧 helped Shen Heng lock the door with great spirit, and after going downstairs, he and his brother carried Xiao Yi's dog cage into the car. I have to say that it is still a bit crowded for four people and one dog in a car, but You can't just lock Xiaoyi in the trunk and be bored.Xiao Wu finally found a chance to hang out with his brother openly, and called out with a smile: "Brother."

Xuanjue's mind instantly rang the alarm, but due to the limited space in the car, he could only squeeze together honestly with Wu Qinyang. He almost fell into the mud, but Wu Qinyang grabbed his wrist and told him earnestly and sincerely, "Brother, be careful."

After Wu Qinyang carefully reviewed his courtship declaration to his brother who had been repeatedly defeated, he finally understood a little bit. He felt that his own method was probably wrong. With Xuan Jue's personality, he should like to take steps step by step and take his own way. I think it makes sense to put the new round of plans into practice vigorously and vigorously.At this time, Xuan Jue realized that Wu Qinyang had changed his policy belatedly, and didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Seeing that Xuan Jue had stabilized, Wu Qinyang let go of his wrist, while Qin Yao had already prepared lunch at home and waited for them.

Xuan Jue collected himself, and together with Wu Qinyang lifted the cage containing Xiaoyi out of the car, and opened the cage door for it.Xiaoyi was a little timid when he arrived in a slightly unfamiliar environment, he didn't bark loudly, he followed behind Shen Heng very politely, when he entered the door and saw Qin Yao, his eyes lit up, and he drooled and asked Qin Yao to get close went.

Qin Yao touched the big dog's head, and gave it a small chop with chopsticks.

Lunch is also simple to eat, Qin Yao stewed the ribs, put a lot of effort into it, it is fragrant but not greasy, the rest of the dishes are mainly light, and after the meal, he discussed with Shen Heng about the way of keeping in good health Come.Wu Qinyang was stunned in his heart, since his little notebook was almost reimbursed due to an accident that day, his mother was a little less interested in labor with pens. She dug out the old rice paper and began to draw goldfish for self-cultivation, not to mention watching health programs. ——It's really hard to guess the mind of menopausal women.

Wu Qinyang sat in the living room and finished watching the noon news. He was not interested in the drama of pure love in the palace that followed. He simply went back to the house and started playing the game with his laptop in his arms. It was the "Escape" that he had put aside for a long time. .

Wu Qinyang’s role in the game is a level 85 assassin, dressed in black and gold, with a heroic appearance, and the short blade with the golden dragon is also a rare treasure in the game. Someone asked Wu Qinyang for [-] RMB Wu Qinyang was not short of money to buy this piece of equipment, so of course he refused to sell it.Because at the beginning, he beat up that NPC at regular intervals for a whole month before he got such a piece of equipment. If that NPC was a real person, he would have been vomited blood by Wu Qin.

Wu Qinyang logged into the game page, and found that he was still at the Yuanyang Temple where the last mission was. Unfortunately, he hadn't logged in to the game for a while, and the mission had expired long ago, wasting a mandarin duck plant that he had finally found.Wu Qinyang deleted the task and jumped back to the main altar. The golden dragon dagger gave off an upstart aura all over his body, and several familiar teammates came over to say hello when they saw him appear: "Yo, long time no see. .”

Wu Qinyang replied, "Long time no see, walked around the main forum idly, and went to listen to the teacher's teachings, and then quit when he found that there was no task he was interested in. When he came out, he happened to see a familiar person in the team Dude is fighting a fifth-level female snitch. The level 89 confrontation with the upper five levels was immediate, and before Wu Qinyang recovered, the female snitch was beaten and lay on the ground silently.

The channel in the team started to buzz in an instant, and someone laughed and said, "Third brother, why are you so unsympathetic, at least to save some face for others, let them chop you twice before talking about it."

The 89th-level assassin who was named curled his lips: "Where would I know, I rushed up suddenly, and I'm still confused. I must be a novice. Who of you is interested in taking an apprentice."

Someone else laughed and said, "Third brother, I think they just fell in love with you. Good luck, don't hurry up."

Wu Qinyang was curious for a while, so he casually clicked on the profile of the female snitch and took a look. He saw that the equipment and skills were all default, and there were no ongoing tasks. He looked like a novice.Wu Qinyang exited the profile page, saw that the female snitch was still lying on the ground, and kindly threw a healer, after a flash of white light, the female snitch finally came back to life slowly, and then the word "Thank you" popped up in the dialog box, concise He was polite, but it made Wu Qinyang smile knowingly.

Wu Qinyang replied "You're welcome", and was about to leave, when a request for apprenticeship suddenly popped up on the page, and the sender was the female snitch in front of him.Wu Qinyang was stunned for a moment, and the channel in the team started to blare again, someone yelled: "Third, what am I talking about, you see you are a step late, it seems that this girl is going to belong to the fifth. The fifth You can do it, I caught a girl as soon as I came up after such a long time, tsk tsk tsk~ I'm so envious!"

Wu Qinyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, thinking that this was all going on, so he replied, "Don't talk nonsense."

The female snitch didn't say a word, probably because she couldn't see their team's channel, and she didn't know what she was thinking.Wu Qinyang is not that addicted to the game. If he really forgot, he might not be able to remember the last game for ten and a half months. He didn't want to delay the novice's apprenticeship. After thinking about it, he refused the apprenticeship request, which caused another uproar in the team.

Wu Qinyang thought about explaining to the female snitch, so he wrote in the dialog box: "I'm sorry, I don't think you are bad, but I usually don't have so much time, and I don't play games frequently, so I won't accept you. Apprentice."

After sending it out, there was no speaking for a long time.Wu Qinyang was pondering over his own words, thinking that he would hurt the girl's heart by saying this, when he replied with a neutral "it doesn't matter".Wu Qinyang scratched his hair, thinking "That's right", then saw a flash of white light, and the female snitch disappeared.

Wu Qinyang didn't care to listen to the teasing of his teammates, remembering that he confessed to Xuan Jue more and more badly every time, thinking that he still couldn't speak, and suddenly remembered that Xuan Jue seemed to have downloaded this online game, and he was determined to overcome the difficulties with a subtle influence With a difficult determination, of course he had to seize this opportunity, so he went out to find his brother.

As a result, he didn't see his brother in the living room, Wu Qinyang was puzzled and asked, "Where's my brother?"

Qin Yao was peeling apples for Shen Heng, and replied casually, "It's in the house."

Wu Qinyang went to the house to look for his brother, and was used to knocking on the door to enter, and saw Xuan Jue staring at the laptop screen in a daze.Wu Qinyang appeared suddenly, and Xuan Jue closed the computer with a "snap", but Wu Qinyang asked curiously, "Brother, what are you looking at?"

Xuan Jue pretended to be calm, and replied: "It's nothing."

On the computer screen was the female snitch who was rejected by Wu Qinyang.
