blazing fire

This is the middle of a large field, at the end of a slightly wider dirt road.

There is a small hill ahead, and when you turn over, you will see endless reinforced concrete pillars, and beautiful trains will pass by from time to time.Yuan Yu would sometimes turn over to the side of the hillside to see the train going away, but most of the time, he would sit on the side of the hillside and find a random field ridge.

During non-farming hours, no one comes to this place, and there are almost no houses in sight, and the surroundings are silent.Sometimes when the wind blows, the half-length crops will be pushed to sway, like waves, one wave after another, there will be a familiar plant smell in the air, and people will calm down in this environment.

He felt that he needed this quietness to clearly remind himself that his desires were all vain.

The gap between Cheng Zhuo and Cheng Zhuo is obvious. Being able to become friends with the other party is already a great fortune. As for other things, he can't do it, and he shouldn't do it.

Take a thousand steps back.

Could it be that his father can understand that his son likes a man?

Yuan Yu suddenly laughed when he thought of this, he could even picture his father angrily beating him with a stick while talking about passing on the family line, it was quite amusing to think about it.

Among all his desires, the only one that he can possibly strive for is to finish the third year of high school, and maybe to be able to go to another university.

Cheng Zhuo's father was the first college student in the village back then, and later heard that he had made a lot of money. Every time he came back with a different beautiful car, it would cause heated discussions in the village for several days.Yuan Yu grew up in the village, and heard gossip about Uncle Cheng from all the adults. Although his father couldn't understand school, when he mentioned Uncle Cheng, he wasn't always accusing.

Money can lead to a good life, even his father understands this simple truth.

So compared to sister's nervousness and worry, Yuan Yu is more optimistic about his sister's running away. After the initial period of time, if sister's life outside is stable and she can get some money back occasionally, father probably won't What did you say.

Of course, it’s okay not to take it.Cheng Zhuo was right, he couldn't take it for granted that sister's things should be given to his family or to him.

Footsteps came from behind, counting the time, it is estimated that Sister Ah came over with something.

He was about to call out for someone, but when he listened carefully, he was wrong—the footsteps were actually from two people.

He was stunned, got up from the field ridge, and ran towards the wider dirt road: "Sister...Cheng Zhuo?"

Yuan Yu hadn't settled down yet, when he suddenly saw Cheng Zhuo, he panicked subconsciously, and froze in place like a frightened rabbit.

Yuan Yun stood aside silently.Cheng Zhuo still had the familiar lazy look of Yuan Yu, walked up to him and stood still.

Four eyes facing each other.

Yuan Yu felt guilty and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?"

"I haven't seen you for a long time, and I still miss you. I asked your sister where she is, and came to see you." Cheng Zhuo said this softly, but his tone was cold, and the ironic smile on the corner of his mouth caught Yuan Yu's heart. one jump.

Yuan Yun looked around, but couldn't figure out what was going on with them.She didn't want to participate in the affairs between the young boys, so she walked to the field ridge with the book in her arms: "You two talk, I'll read the book first."

Yuan Yu's eyeballs followed his sister's figure, feeling very desperate.

He didn't want to face Cheng Zhuo like this alone.

In this way... Cheng Zhuo is stressful.

Cheng Zhuo approached him, and the shadow caused by the height difference cast on Yuan Yu's face.

He leaned slightly, and his deep voice fell into Yuan Yu's ear: "Are you hiding from me?"

"No, no." Yuan Yu answered almost subconsciously, he didn't want Cheng Zhuo to find out his guilt.

"Then I asked you to come, why don't you come?"

"Because..." Yuan Yu's bewildered eyes fell on the field at his feet, and he made an excuse casually, "I have more work than Elder Sister, she finished first, so I let her go to get the book, I finished Work directly here, this way... saves time."

What Yuan Yun said was wrong.

Cheng Zhuo straightened up and looked at him condescendingly.Yuan Yu nervously picked at the seam of his trousers.

After a while, Cheng Zhuo snorted lightly: "Oh, then I want to see if you can come tomorrow."

He put his hands in his pockets, turned around and left, as if he really came to say hello.

Yuan Yu: "..."

Yuan Yun who heard the movement came over: "What's wrong with you two?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Yuan Yu withdrew her gaze from chasing Cheng Zhuo, and pushed her sister, "Go and sit, I'll give you a lecture."

Today's weather is just right, the sun will not be too strong, and the wind will not be too strong. The voice from the repeater is full of words, and it surrounds the ears of the two of them clearly.Yuan Yu took the book and pointed to the words Yuan Yun didn't know and taught her to read them one by one. After reading twenty, she would review the previous ones.

This is a rare time for the siblings to study quietly, and they cherish it very much.It would be nice if I could live like this every day.

however--

Early the next morning, Yuan Yu was preparing to go to school when he saw the man and his family walking in with a gift box and smiling.

In the past, when they came, Yuan Yu had already started class, but today they came earlier, but Yuan Yu's heart sank suddenly.

He has been good at observing words and expressions since he was a child, and he can see the eagerness in the eyes of the man's parents.

When she first decided to interfere with Aunt Huang's marriage, Yuan Yu hesitated, because in the village, it would be a shameful thing to damage her reputation if someone came to propose a marriage and failed in the end. Well, it will be more difficult to talk about kissing in the future.

But at that time, Cheng Zhuo searched a lot of stories about his same wives with his newly acquired mobile phone, and everyone ended up miserable.

That was the first time he knew the term "same wife", and he was so shocked by those stories that he couldn't speak.

He couldn't imagine that sister would become like that.

So, this must not happen.

Thinking of this, he paused, instead of going outside the gate, he walked back into the kitchen to find his mother.

"Where's sister?" He asked in a low voice.

"Going to the field," said his mother, "why haven't you left yet?"

"The family is here."

"..." His mother sighed, and whispered, "Your father didn't go to the field this morning, and he was waiting in the house. It's okay, your sister doesn't want to marry, and Mom won't let this happen. Even..."

She didn't say what she said later, but she thought it wouldn't be a good thing.

Just because of this, his mother has already been beaten by his father, and the wounds on her body still have traces to this day.

"I want to stay and see." Yuan Yu said suddenly.

"What?"

"I'm not going to school now, I want to stay and have a look."

"...you baby." His mother shook her head, but she didn't drive him away, she whispered, "Go and call your sister back, I'll go to the front and say hello, I guess your father should come down later."

"Ah."

The front of the back kitchen is connected to the lobby, and the back is connected to the back door. When you go out, you will find the open space where the well and the washing table are located, and then there is the field in front.Yuan Yu put down her schoolbag and ran out through the back door.Yuan Yu could run to the location of his house with his eyes closed, and he felt that he had never run so fast before.

There is no sun today, and the sky is a bit gloomy with thick clouds covering it.

He ran to the field ridge and shouted out of breath into the field: "Sister——"

"Big brother?" Yuan Yu was a little surprised, put down his work and hurried up from the field, "You didn't go to school?"

"The family is here." Yuan Yu said, "Do you want to go back and listen?"

Since they heard that the family was coming today, they felt very bad, just like the weather.

If you don't come back for a while and come to the door again, can you still return empty-handed?

The siblings hurried home.

Within a few minutes of Yuan Yu's coming and going, the conversation in the front lobby actually skipped the pleasantries and went directly to the main topic.

The man's parents brought a more detailed gift list. In addition to the 30 dowry gift, there is no shortage of three gold jewelry, home appliances and furniture. The other party even said bluntly this time, because there is a younger brother in the original family, They didn't need Yuan Yun to marry them back with these betrothal gifts.

As for why he is so eager—"Ever since Dabao met Xiaoyun, he couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep every day. Look, she's lost weight. As parents, of course we hope that our children will go well and marry well." home with the daughter-in-law I like."

"My in-laws are so polite..." Yuan Yu's father was not in good health and coughed intermittently when he spoke, but he was obviously satisfied with his tone.

Yuan Yu's mother said on the side: "Sister-in-law, I also like Dabao very much, but I love him as much as a mother. Marriage always depends on the younger generation's own wishes. Xiaoyun doesn't want to marry so far away. -"

"Marriage is a 'best relationship between two families'!" Yuan Yu's father suddenly interrupted his wife, "Both parents and mothers agree, how can the relationship not come out? Isn't it just a little bit far away, and it's not Can’t come back! Don’t talk, I’m going to settle this matter today!”

When he heard Father's words, Yuan Yun's face turned pale.She was stunned, and Yuan Yu who was beside her ran out from the back kitchen, "Brother..."

"father!"

Yuan Yu yelled and interrupted the conversation in the lobby. He glanced at the indifferent man and his earnest parents, then turned his eyes to his own father, "I don't agree!"

"Aren't you going to school?" His father frowned and chased him away, "You have to disagree with this matter? Go back and go to the back for me."

"I won't go," Yuan Yu looked directly at him, his hands clenched into fists nervously by his side, "I don't agree!"

The man's mother looked uneasy, but "giggled" and laughed: "Xiao Yu is hurting my sister."

"It's okay, in-laws, this matter is settled like this, you go back first, wait until you turn around..."

"Father!" Yuan Yu glanced at the thin man whose eyes fell outside the door, as if everything in the room had nothing to do with him, turned his heart, pointed at him and shouted at his father: "Do you know that he likes men?" ? You just want a son-in-law like this!"

As soon as these words came out, the face of the man's family changed.Yuan Yu's father was furious, got off the stool and pulled the broom beside him to beat him: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. Many people in the town know about this." Yuan Yu's voice was trembling, he was nervous and angry, pointing at the family and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask them!"

Yuan Yu's father whipped over with a broom.

Yuan Yu pursed her lower lip, feeling the pain.

"Father!" Yuan Yun rushed up to try to pull her father away, "You never hit Xiaoyu before!"

"It's hard not to beat this baby!" His father was obviously mad, "Is this something you can talk about?? Even if you don't want your sister to marry, you can't throw dung on her head? "

Yuan Yu just said, "I'm not talking nonsense."

Compared with outsiders, Yuan Yu's mother still believed in her son.She only thought that her daughter didn't want to marry too far away, she didn't expect this to happen, she looked at the family with a face full of shock: "Sister-in-law, this..."

The man's mother stood up with a smirk on her face: "Xiaoyu loves my sister, but you can't talk nonsense."

"That's right," the man had just recovered, stood up and said, "Brother Xiaoyu, we will be a family in the future, so you can't talk nonsense."

"You know where you go every night." Yuan Yu just said that.

He didn't get in oil or salt, and remained motionless like a pillar stuck in the ground.The man's father suddenly became angry, slapped the table, and said, "Second Yuan, we have come to propose marriage with sincerity, and you must give us an explanation for this matter", mentioned the gift he brought, turned around and left.

Yuan Yu's father's head exploded, and the broom slapped Yuan Yu hard: "Who am I doing this for!"

With a "snap", the bamboo broom pole was split from the middle by a finger-width strip, and it was scrapped.His father's anger has not subsided: "Xiaoyun, bring the stick from my house!"

"Father!" Yuan Yun bent her knees and knelt down to her father, crying, "Stop beating! Why don't you believe Xiao Yu's words!"

"What do you believe? This kind of nonsense?" His father looked serious, "You want to learn from this brat, don't you?"

"I'll get it." Yuan Yu said in a low voice, and pulled his sister, "Sister, get up, I should have suffered this beating long ago."

He was always afraid of being beaten, so he didn't dare to speak.

When my sister was out of school, when my father forced my sister who was uncomfortable during her menstrual period to go to the ground, and when my sister was proposed by a gay man.

Every time he needed to speak, because he was afraid of being beaten, he swallowed his words back.

But that didn't make him much happier.

On the contrary, now, although the body hurts, the heart is very happy.

In his eyes, few of his father's words were correct, and he should have refuted like this a long time ago.

Yuan Yu walked into the house and picked up the unpretentious stick from the corner.When his father beat his mother and his sister when he was young, he was the one who was driven to take the stick. Now, it was finally his turn to take the stick and wait for the stick to beat himself.

It should have been like this a long time ago, why is he the only one who is different?

Yuan Yu knew the answer because he was his son.

But he never thought that his son was so powerful.

"You kneel down for me!"

Yuan Yu lowered his eyes and knelt obediently.

"I made you talk nonsense!"

The stick was drawn on him.

"Your sister is married, so I can marry you a daughter-in-law! Don't you understand this truth? Who am I doing this for, huh?"

It hurts, it's that kind of dull pain.

Yuan Yun's broken cry was interspersed with the sound of beating: "Father, stop beating..."

Then came Yuan Ma's anxious voice: "You man! How could you be so cruel! This is your son!"

Yuan Yu was dizzy from the pain, but he still remembered what he wanted to say: "I know, but even if I don't marry a wife, I can't take my sister's life money!"

"Why is marrying someone? Is it possible that you think your sister will never marry in this life? Is this plausible?"

"Do you still want to marry a wife? Then do you want to have a baby? You don't want to have a baby because you want to see the root of our old family be cut off from you? You unfilial son!"

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

If you are not filial, you will not be filial.

Yuan Yu thought calmly, from the time he thought about Cheng Zhuo and solved his reaction, it was impossible for him to marry another woman.
