Straight Guy's Edible Guide

"Thank you uncle!"

Tao Leping heard footsteps, and when he looked up, he saw the little Uncle Xie whom he had been thinking about day and night coming, followed by the handsome Uncle Xiao.

Xie Ansheng looked around and raised his chin at the boy, "Where's grandma?"

"It's drying in the room."

"Why don't you go in and get some air? It's so hot outside." Xie Ansheng squatted down, looked at him funny, and was not in a hurry to go in to find his mother.

Holding the ball, Tao Leping looked at Xie Ansheng innocently: "Grandma said that I would grow taller by sun exposure, and I want to grow taller."

Xiao Moqian stood behind him, looking at the big and the small with a smile. In the distance were undulating green hills, and a winding stream ran past in front of him. .

This is what Lin Lan saw when she came out of the house.

She was naturally happy when her son came, but before she could call her son, she saw the man next to him with a strong sense of presence looking sideways at Xie Ansheng with a doting and gentle gaze, which made her intuitively to something wrong.

A cold sense of crisis gripped her heart, Lin Lan felt that she and Xie Ansheng were just like now, standing between the light and the shadow, looking at her son under the sun, but the shadows around her surrounded her tightly like pervasive vines.

"mom?"

Xie Ansheng noticed his mother's gaze, and turned his head unnaturally to call her.Looking at the gloomy eyes on Lin Lan's face, he felt a sense of being seen through for no reason.

It was Xiao Moqian who rescued him at the critical moment: "Hello, Auntie."

Lin Lan's expression changed, and soon returned to calm. Xie Ansheng felt that his mother had deep thoughts, and he couldn't see what she was thinking at this moment no matter what.

"Well, you're here too, have you eaten yet?"

The other party's obviously unfamiliar tone made Xie Ansheng feel sad, but he still smiled and said, "We've eaten."

"It doesn't matter if you've eaten it. I bought a lot of watermelons. They're very sweet. I'll open one."

Just as Xie Ansheng was about to say no, when he saw Xiao Moqian in a blink of an eye, he swallowed the words in his mouth, then smiled and said, "That's fine."

Xiao Moqian was so nervous that his palms were sweating, he stood aside, he didn't know what to say.Hearing that Xie Mu said that she wanted to open a watermelon, she had to go to the kitchen first and help Xie Mu carry a large watermelon weighing [-] catties.

Xie's mother said beside him: "This is delicious after soaking it in a bucket with well water. Xie Ansheng, go fetch a bucket of well water from the backyard!"

Xie Ansheng ran to the backyard with the bucket in hand, and Tao Leping followed Xie Ansheng in, even throwing the ball aside.

"Thank you uncle, I will help you!"

In the backyard, Tao Leping pressed half of his body on the handrail of the pressurized well, not letting Xie Ansheng approach at all.

Xie Ansheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he could only watch him humming and humming to press out the water little by little. After watching for a while, he said casually, "Tao Leping, did you make the fishing rod at the door?"

"Yes, I have learned how to fish now. Last time I caught a bag of toads and fed them to grandma's ducks. Grandma praised me for being able to support my family."

Xie Ansheng rolled his eyes and said, "Your Uncle Xiao can also fish, so he must be better than you."

Tao Leping didn't believe it, and angrily accused Xie Ansheng: "Uncle Xie, how can you turn your elbows out!"

Xie Ansheng's eyes lit up, "You actually know how to use such an advanced word as 'turn your elbows out'!"

After a pause, he felt that he had strayed from the topic, so he immediately turned around and said, "You can ask Uncle Xiao to take you fishing later."

"I won't go." Tao Leping refused very flatly, his little face was flushed, and he was persistently fighting against the pressure of the well.

Xie An became angry, "Are you afraid that Uncle Xiao will defeat you?"

"The aggressive method is useless to me!" Tao Leping looked very unmoved, as calm as a little fox.

Xie Ansheng pressed his forehead, wondering why the child has grown so crooked after not seeing him for a few days.

"Uncle Xie, do you want to talk to grandma alone?" Tao Leping leaned on the shaking hand, tilted his head and looked at Xie Ansheng.

Xie Ansheng was taken aback, and said angrily, "That's right!"

"Tsk tsk, can you just say it directly, I understand the righteousness very well."

Come on, knowing that righteousness can be used, Xie Ansheng looked at Tao Leping, no matter how he looked at him, he felt that this was an old monster similar to Tianshan Child Elder.

Brother Xie angrily lifted Tao Leping, shook it violently a few times, and half a bucket of water gushed out, with a hint of cold on it.

Tao Leping stuck out his tongue behind his back and laughed secretly.

Xie Ansheng stayed in the backyard for a while, and only Lin Lan and Xiao Moqian stood in front of him awkwardly.

Xiao Moqian, who was chatting and laughing with his future mother-in-law last time, looked dull like a robot this time. For some reason, he always felt that Lin Lan's gaze fell on his face as if it were real, which made him feel a sense of being overwhelmed. The feeling of scrutiny.

Especially when this kind of scrutiny is accompanied by deep dissatisfaction.

"Hey, I'm really old. I should have discovered it last time." Lin Lan looked at it for a long time, and didn't intend to embarrass the child in front of her. She sighed and spoke.

"Auntie?" Xiao Moqian looked at Lin Lan in confusion, his fists clenched again, and there was more sweat inside.

Lin Lan smiled slightly and said, "The way you look at my family's An'an is the same as his father looked at me back then."

Xiao Moqian's whole body was shocked, his tongue was a little knotted: "Auntie..."

As if withdrawing her thoughts from her memories, Lin Lan turned to look at Xiao Moqian with a strange expression: "Speaking of which, my An'an's character is not good, not even an ordinary man, let alone a woman, why did you fall in love with him ?”

When asked this question, Xiao Moqian seemed to have calmed down, and the words came out of his mouth immediately: "I like him, everywhere, and whatever he looks like!"

"Puchi!" Lin Lan couldn't help laughing out loud, which made Xiao Moqian's face turn red and hot with embarrassment.

Enough of laughing, Lin Lan also became serious, looking straight at Xiao Moqian like a sharp sword: "Is there nothing to change between you? I mean, what are you going to do if I don't agree?"

Xiao Moqian's face darkened, and he was silent for a moment before he opened his mouth: "I know that in An'an's heart, you must be the most important. If there is a choice between the two of us, he will definitely choose you..."

Speaking of this, Lin Lan's expression changed, but Xiao Moqian felt a little helpless, and he let out a sigh of relief and continued: "Now that my parents are gone, there is only one grandpa who is in charge of the family, and I have long respected my family members." I just came out of the closet, so I spent a lot of time on Xie Ansheng alone. So, do you think I will allow him to have others by his side?"

Lin Lan's expression turned ugly: "So are you threatening me? Either Xiaoxie will follow you, or be alone?"

Xiao Moqian smiled bitterly and said: "I don't want to...but you also said that I look at him the same way...uncle looks at you. I heard from An An that your relationship is very deep...so, this kind of Feelings, can you give up?"

Mentioning Father Xie, Lin Lan's expression changed, and there was a long silence between the two of them.

Xiao Moqian's heart is filled with [-] buckets to fetch water, and God knows how uncertain he is when he just said those words.

At this time, Xie Ansheng came out with water, and Lin Lan scolded him when she saw him: "Did you go to Nantianmen to fetch water!? So slow!"

The dullness of the conversation with Xiao Moqian just now was completely gone.

Tao Leping followed Xie Ansheng out from behind in a hurry, watching Lin Lan cut the watermelon into pieces, grabbed two big pieces and entangled Xiao Moqian.

"Uncle Xiao, why don't you go fishing with me?"

Xiao Moqian glanced at Xie Ansheng in surprise.

"go Go?"

Tao Leping's acting skills made Xie Ansheng feel that Xiao Moqian's best actor position could be handed over.

Seeing Xie Ansheng's expressionless face, he lowered his head and smiled gently at Tao Leping, saying, "Okay."

Finally, only Lin Lan and Xie Ansheng were left in the room.

Xie Ansheng inexplicably felt his chest lift up.

Lin Lan quietly ate the watermelon without opening her mouth, leaving Xie Ansheng there to dry.

"Mom, I have something to tell you."

Lin Lan rolled her eyelids and squinted at Xie Ansheng.But my heart sank.

Either the son would not speak up, and once he spoke, it was almost a matter of decision, and there was no room for negotiation.

To put it bluntly, it is stubborn.

"I plan to spend the rest of my life with Xiao Moqian." Xie Ansheng summoned up his courage and said again.When I opened my mouth this time, it was as if the water valve in my throat had been opened, and the rest of the words flowed out much more smoothly: "I know it must be difficult for you to accept, but he is very good to me, and I want to be good to him, so just Like you and my dad."

"Don't mention your father!" Lin Lan suddenly became irritable, and threw the watermelon in her hand to the ground, "Forever? How long has it been since your life and you just tell me forever! At the beginning, I still wanted to spend the rest of my life with your father, but in the end What about him? He’s been there all his life, but what about me?”

Lin Lan seemed to be venting something, tears streaming down her face.

Xie Ansheng was very upset when he saw it, he stepped forward and hugged his mother, helplessly comforting him: "I was wrong, Mom, I was wrong, don't cry, don't cry..."

Lin Lan covered her face with her hands, the tears seeping from between her fingers still fell on Xie Ansheng's arm, his hands were so hot that he couldn't help shaking.

"mom……"

Xie Ansheng was crying this time.

Xie Mu pushed him away, ran into the room alone, locked the door, and then there was the sound of her weeping in the room.

Xie Ansheng stood in the hall, the fan above his head was still whirring, the hot and dry air seemed to isolate a special area for him, and it was freezing cold inside.

After a while, Lin Lan came out, her eyes were still red and swollen, and her voice was nasal.

"It's fine if you want to get along well with him. Mom just wants you to have a good life."

"Mom..." Xie Ansheng looked at him with a little panic in his eyes. Lin Lan had seen this kind of fragile eyes when Xie Ansheng was a child.

As time went by, his son slowly grew into an upright man, but she was never able to hold the son who was crying like a little beast in the quilt again in her arms.

Lin Lan's heart suddenly became soft.

"Take... Xiao Xiao and Xiao Moqian to see your father later. I haven't burnt money for him for a long time. The old man is so poor in the underground that he might not even be able to smoke a cigarette."

Xie Ansheng was puzzled, "Don't you often visit my dad? Why didn't you burn paper money for him?"

"I'm afraid he has money to raise women down there!" Lin Lan sneered.

Xie Ansheng: "..." He really sympathized with his father and adored his mother.
