[First time] Burn it, brother-in-law!

In the middle of the night, there was heavy rain and thunder and lightning.

Ah Ci slept soundly, and the normal level of thunder could not disturb him at all.But this time, he woke up—not by the thunder, but by his elder brother who suddenly pushed the door open.

"What's wrong?" Ah Ci rubbed his eyes and turned on the desk lamp.He found that Ah Chu was standing one meter away from the bed, staring at him for a moment, and even forgot to turn off the flashlight in his hand, looking a little nervous.This made him feel strongly uneasy, stepped on his slippers, walked up to Ah Chu and asked, "Are you sleepwalking?"

Outside the window, another muffled thunder sounded.Ah Chu suddenly reached out and hugged him tightly, his body was still trembling.

"Afraid of thunder?" Old fashioned!So corny!It's been two years since I've been back to China, and it's not the first time there's been a thunderstorm, so I'm only pretending to be afraid of thunder now, isn't it a bit late?Seeing his dejected look yesterday, I thought I had listened to the truth, but I didn't expect to change it at all, so I posted it here when I found a loophole!I really don't understand, why is it so natural for a grown man who has become a father to pretend to be a little white rabbit?Doesn't he feel ashamed himself?Ah Ci twitched the corner of his mouth, and said disdainfully, "Why do you still have such a hidden skill?"

Ah Chu still hugged him tightly, and said in a panic: "I had a nightmare just now... I dreamed that you were injured, an artery was injured. I tried many methods, but I couldn't stop the bleeding..."

"It's okay, it's all over... Look, I'm fine." Ah Ci immediately changed his attitude and patted his elder brother on the shoulder to comfort him.Although I don't know the tragic situation of being sent to the rescue after the car accident, for Ah Chu who witnessed the scene with his own eyes, it is definitely not a good memory, and it can even be said to be cruel torture.Thinking of this, Ah Ci found that he couldn't maintain objective reason at all.It's not what my eldest brother wants to develop things a little bit to where they are today.Doesn't he want to maintain the relationship between brothers and sisters?Does he not want to live a normal life? If it weren't for that car accident and that operation, he wouldn't have become so concerned about gain and loss.Perhaps, now he can still embrace that He Yashu who "loved for a century" tenderly, instead of having nightmares alone on the double bed.

Soft-heartedness often indicates compromise and concession.In order to calm down the little white rabbit who was still in shock, Ah Ci finally decided to let him sleep in the guest room tonight...but only tonight.

Ah Chu lay on the bed, relaxed, and soon fell asleep.

Seeing that his elder brother was so peaceful, Ah Ci felt ashamed of his previous thoughts.Although running downstairs was enough time for an adult to control his emotions, Ah Chu's reaction was a bit too much.But not everything has to be logical, maybe that nightmare was really scary... In short, you shouldn't have occupational diseases at home and doubt your eldest brother's motives.

When he got home from get off work the next day, he realized how naive he was—with the help of Liu Ah Si, Ah Chu had already moved the supplies in the bedroom to the guest room, even the glass that was closed in the cabinet for "feng shui formation" No shoes left, obviously intending to stay for a long time.

Ah Ci tried his best to keep calm, and asked calmly, "What's the matter? Are you going to move in?"

Ah Chu smiled and said: "Well, I didn't expect that the bed in the guest room is so comfortable, no wonder you don't want to go back to the bedroom to sleep!"

Ah Ci shrugged: "Oh, it's okay. If you like, I can let you out, and it's okay to sleep upstairs."

Ah Chu said with great regret: "The bedroom has been emptied, even the bed has been dismantled."

"Is it necessary to do so desperately?"

Ah Chu was still cheerful: "No way, that room needs to be renovated."

Decorate your head!Thanks to him for coming up with such a bad excuse!Ah Ci raised his eyebrows: "Really? By doing this, are you planning to let me live in Dad's room, or move out?"

"I don't think it's a conflict to share a guest room."

"But I don't think so!" Ah Ci unconsciously raised his voice, seeing Liu Ahsi and Uncle Niu who were pretending to be busy with their own business in the living room but listening to their dispute, he didn't continue, "Can we talk alone? ?”

Ah Chu grabbed the car key and shook it: "How about going out for a drive?"

Ah Ci nodded and followed him into the yard.

When Ah Chu opened the door of the driver's seat, Ah Ci rushed forward: "Let me drive."

Ah Chu looked at him for a while, and asked, "Is there still a shadow on the co-pilot position?"

"It's not just that." Ah Ci shook his head, "I don't like things that are out of control."

"Me too." Ah Chu shook his head with a smile, and handed him the key, "But I'm not entangled in small issues."

Ah Ci concentrated on driving the car without saying a word.Ah Chu didn't say a word, he leisurely enjoyed the scenery on the side of the road—contrary to his younger brother, he seemed to be in a good mood.

The car was parked at the end of a small road in the suburbs.Ah Ci got out of the car, leaned against the car door and smoked.

Ah Chu walked around, looked at the large rapeseed field and joked: "My brother is talented, and he was able to find such an artistic place!"

The emotions that Ah Ci had finally brewed up by smoking a cigarette were destroyed in an instant, and he said helplessly, "Brother, can we not do this?"

"What kind?" Ah Chu asked puzzled.

"You always make me feel at a loss." Ah Ci squeezed the center of his brows, and said, "I know, I caused the family to become like this. I'm sorry for you and Ai Zhong Aihua. I also want to do my best Something to make it up to you, so please don't force me to leave."

"In your opinion, I live in the same bedroom with you to force you to leave?" Ah Chu said innocently, "I just slept in half a bed, and I didn't say what I was going to do."

"But you've done enough before!" Ah Ci thought about it, trying not to speak harsh words, "Habits are terrible. Maybe one day, we will get used to it, but in the eyes of others, it will be weird and absurd... …I'm afraid we're going to get so deep we won't be able to turn back."

"Ah Ci, it's too late, I can't go back... Frankly speaking, I tried to love others, but failed, and I don't want to delay others, so Ai Zhong Aihua will never have a stepmother." Ah Chu Looking up at the sky, he adjusted his emotions, "Of course, you also have the right to choose. If you want, you can marry a wife and have children at any time, and I will bless you. But at least for now, can you try to accept me?"

"I... It's not that I don't accept you, but the matter itself..." Ah Ci was afraid of seeing his brother's red-eyed little white rabbit, because it often indicates that he is about to compromise, and it's the same this time, "Okay Well, anyway, I don't want to look for it again. But if one day you figure it out, completely forget He Yashu, and have a new goal, we will break up when we should, and then we will be good brothers..."

Ah Chu interrupted him angrily: "I have said so much, why don't you understand! It has nothing to do with Yashu, I have always loved you!"

Ah Ci was stunned for a full ten seconds, then his expression became awkward, and he said helplessly, "I've already agreed, so don't say such things... What you said earlier is reasonable, but now it's false."

The veins on Ah Chu's forehead twitched: "Why did you say you were a lie?"

"It's meaningless for you to deny the relationship with Yashu now. If you continue to talk about it, Aizhong Aihua will become like a rock popping out."

"Didn't you always think that sex and love are separate? Why do you have to discuss it together when you come to me?"

"You also said that there is something wrong with my platonic view of love. It can be seen that your understanding is different from mine."

"Let me be quiet, my mind is a little messed up now..." Ah Chu squatted down while clutching his hair, thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "If I say that Ai Zhong Aihua is a test-tube baby, can you explain it?" ?”

"It's far-fetched." Ah Ci analyzed objectively, "It would make sense if I just said that directly, but it's a bit late now, and it's like looking for a rut."

"Okay." Ah Chu had already messed up his hair, and after thinking for a while, he straightened his hair and stood up, "I'm out of luck, let's do this first... let's go, go home."

When driving back, Ah Ci thought about it and began to regret it, not understanding why he agreed so easily.During this period of time, Ah Chu was too pampered. He knew that this kind of relationship with friends with sex was abnormal, but he couldn't bear to flatter him.I just nodded my head when my head got hot, and now I realize that even if I follow him on the core issue, at least we should talk about the conditions, and the three chapters of the agreement are fair and reasonable.

"We can't go home yet." Ah Ci parked the car on the side of the road, turned his head and said, "You still owe me an explanation about the pill box."

"Actually, I'm not sick. It's just that I had a lot of things at that time, and I didn't have a good rest, so I had arrhythmia. It was good to just lie down, but I didn't expect to scare you and Ah Si so much that I wanted to call the emergency department. I can only eat in front of you." Tablets, let you rest assured. But you can’t take medicines indiscriminately, so I can only ask Ah Si to go to the bedroom to get Yashu’s calcium and magnesium tablets. It was as if I was seriously ill, and I didn’t believe any explanation, so I escalated the incident directly. I don’t dare to bring up the matter of the medicine box again. It’s really hard to get rid of the crime of pretending to be sick if I can’t get it right. But even if you risk being misunderstood by you I can't replace it with a real first aid medicine, which will make you more worried."

This mouth is so good at talking!In fact, even if he changed the medicine, it still couldn't change the fact that he took the medicine from the bedside cabinet. It was obvious that it couldn't be a first aid medicine, and it would be worn out sooner or later. Now he still wants to say that he is so considerate.The way he panted while holding his chest that day was many times more serious than the arrhythmia!It's just pretending to be sick!Ah Ci snorted softly and asked, "Are you sure it was an arrhythmia that day? Didn't you exaggerate it to prevent me from finding a theory with Yashu?"

"How is it possible! My physical condition was really not very good at that time, and I slowly recovered after adjusting my schedule." Ah Chu's face was innocent.

Adjust your schedule?Did not see it!Ah Ci thought back, these days he is busy with socializing, he often comes back in the middle of the night, occasionally there is no dinner, and he has to find something to "do" by himself!If this kind of work and rest can be regarded as regular, I am afraid that no one can be called irregular!But pretending to be sick is a bad idea. Thinking about it, Ah Chu didn't expect that he suddenly wanted to settle accounts with Yashu, and he left such a big opening on a temporary basis.In any case, it's a good thing that you don't have a serious illness. Ah Ci breathed a sigh of relief and didn't bother to argue with him: "Whether you admit to pretending to be sick or not, it's not an example. Don't pretend to be pitiful and sympathetic in the future, otherwise I really won't talk to you." He thought for a while, and added, "But don't worry about it when you feel uncomfortable, you must say it."

"Got it!" Ah Chu smiled with relief.

What Ah Ci didn't expect was that his brother had a rigorous and serious attitude towards excuses and practical execution ability, and the upstairs bedroom was about to start renovation.When he questioned the impact of the decoration next door on the two little nephews, Ah Chu gave him a reassuring smile: "My room has very good sound insulation."

The decoration project of the bedroom is actually to use glass as a partition and add a small bathroom.Ah Chu's reason is only four words - it is convenient to wash.Although this can indeed avoid the embarrassment of running into the bathroom in the middle of the night and being bumped into by Mrs. Liu, Ah Ci thinks that the room has become nondescript, and has some criticisms about it: "Are you decorating it like a hotel?"

"No. But from your tone, you are quite familiar with the hotel?" Ah Chu asked meaningfully.

Ah Ci naturally understood the meaning of his words: "I'm not familiar with it, I just went to arrest people a few times."

After the renovation, it took almost a whole year to ventilate and choose new furniture, before the two moved from the guest room to the master bedroom.

A lot of things happened this year: Ah Chu's company started to take shape, signed a few half-red stars, and made a lot of money after a lot of hype; There are group incidents, petitions, riots, strikes to ask for wages, etc. In serious cases, there are physical conflicts and minor abrasions.Compared with the work of criminal investigation, it is not easy, just less contact with dead bodies; Liu Yunpu was transferred to the security brigade, and the office was only one floor away from Ah Ci, and he often wandered over to "check work".But this kid is married, and it is said that the bride was introduced by Ah Chu, no wonder Fatty Liu is willing to be an insider for him.Of course, private money transactions are also indispensable.Ah Ci has not been pestered by Liu Yunpu to borrow money for a long time, so it can be seen that undercover is a very lucrative career; Ai Zhong and Aihua are gradually able to call daddy, but it is still difficult to learn to call him uncle, so no matter whether they meet Ah Chu or Ah Ci , call dad together.

This year is not long, nor is it short.Ah Ci's deepest understanding is that the appearance of his brother's little white rabbit is an illusion, but it is closer to the "rogue rabbit" in his bones.

It is worth mentioning that Ah Chu gave Ah Ci a Grand Cherokee for his birthday.Ah Ci is not good at making surprises, and I really don’t know what Ah Chu lacks materially. After thinking about it, I finally found out the lighter in my pocket and handed it in—I remember the lighter that Ah Chu picked out for his birthday the year before last. There will be mistakes.Ah Chu took the lighter dumbfounded, and said nothing in order not to spoil the atmosphere.The next day I asked: "Can I ask, how did you celebrate Ronghua's birthday when you dated her?"

"I invited her to eat her favorite hot and sour noodles."

Ah Chu waited for him to continue talking, but he didn't see that his younger brother wanted to talk again, so he asked, "That's it?"

"Yeah." Ah Ci nodded of course.

Ah Chuyi didn't know what words to use to describe it, so he managed to say: "Not bad, very pleasantly surprised..."
