I don't know if it's a boy

Tao Zhiyuan took a glass of water out of the room and went straight to Tao Sijian's room, and he knocked on the door tentatively.

"Sijian? Are you awake?"

The person inside shouted, "Brother, you can just come in! The door is unlocked!"

Tao Zhiyuan was not polite either, he just pushed the door open and came in, Tao Si saw that he must have been awake for a long time or hadn't slept at all, he was sitting cross-legged on the bed playing games energetically, fully concentrating on it.

He sat on the edge of the bed and watched the screen with him, and said lightly: "You are so fascinated, watch your eyes."

Tao Si said casually without looking up, "It's all right, I'll just play for a while."

"By the way...brother, are you in love?"

The hand holding the cup of the person next to him visibly paused, and then he said without changing his expression, "Why do you ask that?"

"I just saw that your room is always on at night, and there are voices." Tao Sijian's thoughts suddenly went astray, and he looked at him suspiciously. Talk to yourself?"

Tao Zhiyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and took a sip of water.

Also, my younger brother has always been so clear-eyed.

"It's the senior of my competition class, and they often review together at night."

"That's it..."

Tao Zhiyuan was probably talking too much, so he got up quickly, "Then you play first, I'll go see what grandma is up to."

"Okay, I'll go help after I finish this one."

Tao Zhiyuan took the cup again, Shi Shiran got up and left the room, turned around and went into the kitchen again.

"Grandma, what are you up to? Let me help you."

Grandma Tao turned to look at her well-behaved grandson, and said kindly: "I'm cleaning up the fish, you can't help, go play with my brother."

Tao Zhiyuan followed the same pattern and walked around in front of Grandpa Tao again, but was disgusted for a while, and finally returned to his room resentfully.

Shaking left and right, there is still nothing to do, and I frantically picked up my winter homework.

Tao Sijian couldn't find his own brother when he came out from the game, but when he found Tao Zhiyuan in the room, he had already finished writing a chemistry paper.

He leaned against the door frame with an expression of disbelief, and said with his tongue: "In ancient times, there was Sun Jing hanging on the beam to stab his ass, but now there is my brother who writes papers during the Spring Festival. My brother is really not comparable to ordinary people!"

Tao Zhiyuan ignored his teasing and said without raising his head: "I know you have a lot of homework on your desk. If you say anything more, I'll put it in front of you. Be realistic."

Tao Sijian shrugged his shoulders in pain, and left angrily, "I didn't hear, I didn't see, I didn't hear, I didn't see..." Then he left the room swearing.

……

When Sun Zhe finished the poker game and sent him a message, Tao Zhiyuan had just finished all the physics papers and was content to tidy up his messy desk.

[SZ: I won a lot today, and I will send you a red envelope later. 】

[SZ: [Smug]]

[A glass of water: No need, keep the flowers for yourself. 】

[SZ: That's different, the New Year's money is very meaningful! 】

[A glass of water: But speaking of it, I don’t know how to play mahjong at all, but our family plays it every New Year’s Eve. 】

[A glass of water: I may not be able to gather enough people this year...]

[SZ: It’s okay, play a video with me while you play, and I’ll help you. 】

[A glass of water: OK.It seemed that it was time for dinner, so I went out first. 】

[SZ: Go ahead, eat more. 】

The meaning of the New Year's Eve dinner is extraordinary. It is one aspect to get together happily, and the more important thing is the family members who have not seen each other all year round.Today's Tao family obviously lacked that lively atmosphere, but under Grandma Tao's efforts, the meal in the evening was still extremely rich.

Grandpa Tao was so drunk that he insisted on pouring two glasses of beer for the Tao brothers.

"Another year has passed, and our two great grandchildren, Zhiyuan and Sijian, are one year older and more sensible. Come on, let's have a drink together!"

Today was different from usual, Tao Zhiyuan and Tao Sijian did not refuse this glass of wine, they happily clinked glasses and downed it in one gulp.

"Happy New Year, grandparents, let's eat quickly."

Grandma happily picked up the chopsticks, "Eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."

"Let's start everyone!"

Tao Zhiyuan, who had a cat's stomach, took the lead and got off the table. He went back to his room and took out his mobile phone to call Yang Songjie.

"Hello? Is it Xiaoyuan?"

Tao Zhiyuan hasn't heard his mother's voice for a long time, and the previous contact was also through WeChat. The chances of the two of them making video calls are rare. Yang Songjie's voice came from the other end of the phone, still gentle and kind .

His tense and constantly adjusting mood all day finally had some warning signs of breaking the embankment, his nose was a little acidic, and his voice began to tremble, "Mom, happy new year."

"Happy New Year. I'm at my grandfather's house now. You should also wish them a New Year."

The caller became Grandpa, "Xiao Yuan?"

"Grandpa, happy new year."

Grandpa should be at the dinner table, and the surrounding voices are a bit noisy, "Happy Chinese New Year, come to Grandpa's house to play in a few days."

"Good grandpa, how about I go there the day after tomorrow?" His voice was soft, and his tone was a little raised.

The distance between the two villages is actually the distance between the front and back villages. It’s just because of the Chinese New Year that it’s hard to find a car.

"Okay, grandpa will cook pork ribs for you."

Tao Zhiyuan’s parents went out to work when Tao Zhiyuan was very young, and only returned to settle near his hometown in recent years, so most of his childhood memories come from his grandfather and grandfather, especially his good cooking skills. Tao Zhiyuan can't forget it for a long time.

"It's been a long time since I ate a meal made by my grandfather, so you should eat first."

"Okay, okay, then we will chat with grandpa and grandson later."

Tao Zhiyuan hung up the phone and took a deep breath, adjusted his mood and turned around to go out, but the phone in his hand rang again.

Wang Zhuo pulled a group of four inside, and the red envelopes were in full swing.

He also distributed two small red envelopes with a great atmosphere, and opened the two remaining red envelopes.

[It's Zhuo, not the table: Happy New Year at the same table! 】

[A glass of water: Happy New Year. 】

[Two days a day: Happy New Year! 】

[SZ: It's only past eight o'clock domestic time, did you pray a little earlier? 】

[SZ: But still happy new year. 】

[SZ: [Gong Xi Fa Cai, good luck]]

[SZ: [Gong Xi Fa Cai, good luck]]

[SZ: [Gong Xi Fa Cai, good luck]]

[It's Zhuo, not the table: Mr. Sun is grand! 】

[Two days a day: Mr. Sun is so grand! 】

In the chat box, Sun Zhe didn't reply quickly. Could it be that he was waiting for him?

Tao Zhiyuan followed a formation tentatively.

[A glass of water: Boss Sun is so generous! 】

Now Zisun Zhe came back quickly.

[SZ: Little things, little things. 】

After this smile, Tao Zhiyuan quit the chat box, and soon the news of Sun Zhe came again.

[SZ: [Gong Xi Fa Cai, good luck]]

[SZ: [Gong Xi Fa Cai, good luck]]

[SZ: Happy New Year from source to source. 】

Tao Zhiyuan didn't accept his red envelope, but just replied to his message below.

[A glass of water: Senior, Happy New Year to you too. 】

[SZ: Take the red envelope, or I'll go back and give it to you. 】

[A glass of water: ...then I'll take one...]

[SZ: Then I'm ready to eat. 】

【A glass of water: OK】

After the New Year's Eve dinner, there was no lively atmosphere in Tao's house, and everyone went back to their rooms to get ready to rest.

Tao Zhiyuan washed up and went back to his room, and made two more sets of papers. At about 11:30, Sun Zhe sent a video invitation.

"What are you doing?" Sun Zhe's voice was deep and deep, obviously drunk, but there was a kind of subwoofer magnetism, which was as intoxicating as the evening wind.

"I'm writing a paper." Tao Zhiyuan looked up at him and said obediently.

The person on the opposite side didn't answer immediately, but turned and walked towards the balcony, Tao Zhiyuan heard the whistling wind.

"You should wear more clothes."

"It's okay, sober up." Sun Zhe shook his head and smiled faintly, "We will go back on the fifth day."

His voice was always calm, with the same tone of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, which was more distant in the evening wind, but now Tao Zhiyuan could already distinguish his emotions.

He is happy, very happy.

"Come back so early?" Tao Zhiyuan asked in surprise.

Sun Zhe suddenly became unhappy, "Don't you want to see me?"

"There is something wrong with my father's company contract. My mother has been on duty since the sixth day of junior high school, and I will be left at home by then."

Tao Zhiyuan seemed to know what he was thinking but was not sure, so he asked tentatively: "Do you want to come to my house to play?"

The slyness in the eyes of the person on the phone flashed, and the mouth still asked seriously: "Is it okay? Will it be too disturbing?"

Tao Zhiyuan was a little hesitant, he was afraid of colliding with Tao Guoqing when he came back, after all, it was more difficult to cut open his pain and bloody in front of the person he liked and still be safe, at least he couldn't do it.

But looking at Sun Zhe's bright eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse, so he said, "Yes, come here, my family will welcome you very much."

After getting the answer he wanted, Sun Zhe didn't pretend to show his fox tail, "Is this to meet the parents? I will prepare well!"

Tao Zhiyuan stuttered a bit when he said, "No...prepare or something..."

The two chatted enthusiastically, planning to go to Tao's house, half an hour passed before they knew it.

"Senior, it's almost twelve o'clock."

"Yes, this is the first New Year we spend together." Sun Zhe's tone was inexplicably gratified, "We still have many, many years, right?"

Tao Zhiyuan replied cheerfully, "Yes! There are still many, many years..."

As soon as twelve o'clock arrives, the fireworks outside the window bloom from all around the city, and thousands of families reunite and depend on each other at this moment.Thinking of their New Year's Eve fireworks, Sun Zhe also wanted to be so bright, Sun Zhe's heart warmed up, and he said impulsively but solemnly.

"Yuanyuan, I like you, I like you very much."

"I know, always knew."

"I like you too."

Tao Zhiyuan was a little shy, but he still looked at Sun Zhe on the screen, the love in his eyes was self-evident.

The two hearts on the other side of the ocean put aside all the worldliness and distance, and leaned stubbornly and firmly together.
