Bamboo Horse Cultivation Manual [Rebirth]

At first, I thought there would be more foreshadowing, but when several people walked upstairs, Ye Li turned around and closed the study door, he said: "Xiao Mu, he has been worried for a long time, I want to talk to you today Let's talk it out, let Xiao Mu completely feel at ease."

Qiu Mu's mother's eyes became hot, and she almost shed tears again: "You know?"

"I know." Ye Li said: "To tell you the truth, when I was in elementary school, I knew that Xiao Mu liked boys."

Qiu Mu's mother let out a helpless cry, her body shook, her palms rested on the bookshelf beside her to support her body, and she kept saying "it's all my fault".

"Xiao Mu, he is very afraid that you, uncle, and grandpa will find out." Ye Li said: "Every time I mention it, I feel uneasy. I can see it. From what he said at first, he planned to hide it forever , remained single all the time, and later..."

What happened later, everyone understood Ye Li's meaning.

Qiu Mu's father asked: "Do you know that the person Mu'er likes is you?"

Here Ye Li paused for a while, and then said: "...I didn't know until a long time ago. Before that, I just knew that he liked boys, and then comforted and encouraged him."

"what about now."

Ye Li said, "It's still the same now."

"Didn't think about refusing, didn't want to leave him?"

Ye Li said: "How could he refuse, he is Xiao Mu."

Qiu Mu's parents looked at Ye Li with complicated eyes.

"As long as you say that you don't like Mu'er and that you want to separate from him, Mu'er can't do anything about you."

In this way, Qiu Mu might still give up, and have a chance for the two of them to "retain".

"I can't say such words." Ye Li said: "I can't say anything that hurts Xiao Mu's heart."

Qiu Mu's mother looked at Ye Li with tears in her eyes.

Qiu Mu's father said: "You can obviously have more choices. You have education, looks, and skills. Do you still worry about whether women will like you?"

Ye Li said: "Compared to anyone else, Xiao Mu is the most important, because of him, I am what I am now. You may not understand how important he is to me. I don't want anything else, But you can’t lose Xiao Mu, it’s no different from killing me.”

Qiu Mu's mother covered her mouth and kept crying in a low voice, while Qiu Mu's father kept comforting her.

"Xiao Mu is very afraid that you will find out, and he is also very afraid that he will have to leave my side in the future, so he dare not say anything. Since he can't do it, then let me do it." Ye Li said: "It's me I hope you can respect Xiao Mu's opinion and consider Xiao Mu from his perspective. No matter what, I want to see Xiao Mu happy, and I don't want him to continue to torture himself. Just like him It’s the same as protecting me before, but now it’s my turn to protect him. So if you have something to say, you can tell me, if you have dissatisfaction, you can vent it on me, it’s okay. But don’t say too many excessive words in front of Xiao Mu , he must be in pain."

Seeing that there was not much anger in the expressions of the two adults, but more regret and sadness, Ye Li relaxed a little and continued: "I can guarantee that in the future, I will definitely treat Xiao Mu better than myself. I won't do it." Anything that makes him sad, don't say anything that makes him sad, and do everything possible to make him laugh without worry."

Because Ye Li's words were too sincere, and he did everything he said, so no one could refute him because of this, saying that he was not good.

The more Qiu Mu's mother listened to her tears, the more she couldn't stop her tears. When she looked at Ye Li, apart from a little bit of resistance, it was more of a request and please.

"Be sure to treat Mu'er well. Your godfather and I are usually too negligent to that child and can't do anything for him. You must treat him well and don't make him sad."

Qiu Mu's father also let out a long sigh.

"knocking"

Ye Li's ears moved slightly.

The conversation was just halfway through, and no one spoke at this time, saying to let outsiders in.

Ye Li said, "It's Xiao Mu."

Qiu Mu's parents looked at him.

"It was like this when Xiao Mu knocked on the door." Ye Li said something that softened Qiu Mu's mother's heart, and then said: "Can you say something about him in front of Xiao Mu? Then I will go to open the door."

Qiu Mu's mother touched the teardrops from the corners of her eyes with her hands, and said, "Go and open them."

Ye Li carefully discerned the expression on the other party's face, then turned around and opened the door.

Qiu Mu stood at the door with an uneasy expression, and immediately set her eyes on Ye Li, making sure that Ye Li was not hurt, and then carefully said to the other three people in the room: "What's wrong? Why are you running away all of a sudden?" Coming upstairs."

Qiu Mu's father asked Qiu Mu to come in. Qiu Mu heard the tone of the other party and felt the strange atmosphere in the room. The blood faded from his face and he became helpless.

He subconsciously stood next to Ye Li, which gave him a sense of security.

Qiu Mu's mother said, "Did you text Xiao Yu and say that you want to die?"

Qiu Mu was taken aback for a moment, and quickly said, "No?"

Knowing that Qiu Mu was quibbling, Qiu Mu's mother said again: "Then, have you been hiding something from your mother all these years, and you have been feeling uncomfortable in your heart."

Qiu Mu looked at her mother with a complicated expression, her lips twitched twice, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Yes..."

"Why don't you tell your parents?"

Qiu Mu glanced sideways at Ye Li, saw Ye Li nodded his head slightly, his heart was beating rapidly, and his voice was trembling: "I, I'm afraid you will blame me if you find out."

"If I blame you, will you change it?"

Qiu Mu's shoulders began to tremble unconsciously, and he said, "No, it's impossible, I'm like this, I can't change it..."

Ye Li stretched out his hand to hold Qiu Mu's palm. Qiu Mu jumped slightly in fright, and looked at his mother and father anxiously.

The two adults saw Qiu Mu frightened like this, and the expressions on their faces became even more sad.

The few people around did not speak, they silently looked at him and Ye Li.Qiu Mu's body trembled slightly, and after a while, he suddenly said in a shrunken tone: "I, I like him."

Everyone looked at Qiu Mu.

Qiu Mu's face was still extremely pale and did not improve.But the strength holding Ye Li in his hands is getting stronger and stronger, and he is becoming more and more determined: "No matter what you say to Dad, I will not change. Whether you beat me, scold me, or even threaten me, forcefully As long as I leave, I won't change my mind. I like Xiaoli, I only want him in my life, so no matter what, I can't give up on him, leave him, it's impossible."

Qiu Mu's mother choked up and said, "Didn't you ever think that Mom and Dad would be sad?"

"I've thought about it." The corners of Qiu Mu's eyes were red, and it was hard for him to hold back his tears. He forced himself to say all the words he had hidden for so many years in a loud voice: "I was afraid that you would be sad, so I endured it for so many years and didn't dare to say a word. I was afraid that it would affect the company, so I kept the matter in my heart in fear and did not dare to leak it. I don't know if you can accept it, so I don’t know how many times I cried at home by myself. But I don’t want to bear it any longer, I can’t let Xiao Li feel wronged along with me.”

Ye Li couldn't help holding back tightly with his hand, thinking of the pressure Qiu Mu had endured for so many years, he felt distressed for him.

Qiu Mu wiped the corners of his eyes with his palm, and continued: "I have grown up, I know what to do. I also have the determination and ability to face everything, so I want to tell you and Dad, I like Xiaoli, I want to To be with him. It's something I've decided and it won't change no matter what."

The more he spoke, the louder and firmer Qiu Mu's voice became. In the end, he looked straight at the two adults. There was no timidity or anxiety in his eyes, but only the determination to do what he said.

In fact, after taking this hesitant step, it didn't feel too scary.

Fear is like the darkness in the haunted house. It is more of one's own psychological effect. No matter how bad it is, how bad can it be?

After saying it, I feel happy, and I no longer need to be afraid of the unknown future. What I have is only the determination and perseverance of "I must do it, I must do it".Other than that, don't want to think about anything.After speaking, he calmed down.

With the support of her husband's arm, Qiu Mu's mother walked towards Qiu Mu. At first, she took small, weak steps, and then slowly turned into big strides. Finally, she let go of her husband's hand and trotted to Qiu Mu. .

Qiu Mu looked at her mother without changing her expression, neither retreating nor flinching.

Qiu Mu's mother embraced Qiu Mu with open arms, put her head on Qiu Mu's chest, and sobbed softly while holding him.

Qiu Mu was slightly taken aback, as if she didn't expect her mother to react like this.

Ye Li raised his arms and hugged Qiu Mu's head, gently pressed his forehead against his face, then touched his head with his palm, silently comforting him.

Qiu Mu looked into Ye Li's eyes, felt a little encouragement, then looked down at his mother, and said, "You don't blame me?"

The mother shook her head, choked up and said, "My good boy, why would my mother blame you?"

She raised her palm, pressed her fiery palms against Qiu Mu's cheeks, and said to Qiu Mu, "I'm sorry, it's my mother who didn't find out earlier and made you feel wronged."

"But......"

Qiu Mu's mother shook her head with a smile, and said to Qiu Mu: "It's okay, those things don't matter, as long as mother's Mu'er is happy, everything else is fine."

Qiu Mu had been holding back the tears that did not fall before, but because of such a soft comfort, they suddenly burst out of his eyes.

"I'm sorry..." Qiu Mu said, "I never thought of disappointing you and Dad, but I can't help it."

"Courage up, be confident, Mu'er." Qiu Mu's mother said, "Don't feel inferior for your 'difference', mother understands you, and many people can understand you, you are not bad, you have done nothing wrong What."

Qiu Mu's father said: "In the future, if you have something to say, your mother and father will always be your backers. If you encounter difficulties and can't solve them by yourself, there will be me, your mother, and grandpa."

"Just be happy and happy. It's okay to like the same sex. There are many people like you in the world." Qiu Mu's mother said to Qiu Mu: "Mom will never let anyone hurt you, don't worry. So in the future Don't feel uneasy because of this kind of thing, and don't say any more unlucky words, because you are so sad that you can't think about it."

Qiu Mu nodded with a sob, and said, "I see, thank you mom, thank you dad, thank you grandpa."

"Good boy."

......

After speaking, the atmosphere became very warm.Seeing that the matter was completely settled, Ye Li touched Qiu Mu's face, then went downstairs to continue making dinner.

Qiu Mu stayed and talked with her parents about the thoughts of these years. Everyone had a faint smile on their faces. Although the sad emotions still lingered in the brain and did not disappear completely, their mentality was relaxed and they would not be together again. Disputes happen for no reason.

After going downstairs, Gu Yu and Chen Siqi were sitting on the sofa whispering this, seeing Ye Li coming down, Gu Yu said hello.Chen Siqi's face was still a little unnatural, her eyes stayed on Ye Li's face for a long time, and finally she took the initiative to speak, saying "I'm sorry, I said a lot of bad things in the past", and "I'm sorry, I haven't noticed it all the time." .

Knowing that she meant that she would occasionally ask "Why don't you have any girlfriends yet" and "Do you want me to introduce some to you two", she shook her head with a smile and said "It's okay".

Gu Yu said, "Are you alright?"

Ye Li nodded: "It's okay, we've talked about it."

"I see that Auntie looks very sad." Gu Yu said, "She didn't say anything against it."

"Just like you think, they care more about Xiao Mu's situation than those things." Ye Li said: "The process is going smoothly, don't worry."

Gu Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Then he quickly showed a bright smile, and hugged Chen Siqi: "In this way, I don't have to worry about you anymore, and I can live a sweet life with my Siqi at ease."

Chen Siqi couldn't help laughing, she stretched out her finger and poked Gu Yu's lower abdomen: "Do you want me to hate you?"

Leaving the living room for the two lovers to talk sweetly, Ye Li turned and went to the kitchen to cook.

After half an hour, the food was cooked, and everyone gathered in the living room to eat.

From Chen Siqi's point of view, if Gu Yu hadn't said those words to her, she really wouldn't have been able to see what happened to these people half an hour ago.

I could only silently say, "As expected of people living in different worlds", and then accepted their normal and natural way of getting along, watching their harmonious interaction, quietly listening to a few people talking, and wanted to see if I could take the opportunity Learn something, after all, the opportunity is rare.

"What is Xiaoli's plan in the future? Does the company have any plans to expand abroad?"

"Yes." Ye Li said while drinking the soup, "But the focus is still on the domestic side."

"Where's Mu'er?"

Qiu Mu said: "I want to stay with Xiaoli first, and we will talk about the future, depending on the situation."

Qiu Mu's parents pondered for a while, thinking that Qiu Mu and Ye Li are still young, even if they join their company, they can only hold two positions at most, and then study on the sidelines.

Simply the two of them, how can they manage the company until Ye Li and Qiu Musan are 40 years old and then hand it over to them, so before that, it doesn't matter if the children are free to fight.

So he nodded and said nothing.

"It's hard to manage a company." Qiu Mu's mother couldn't help but said, "But no matter how hard it is, don't forget your family. I saw Xiaoli working like you in the past few years. It was really a bit too hard. The company is developing rapidly. Yes, but the body and family are the most important."

Ye Li smiled, and said, "Don't worry."

Qiu Mu said: "If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't have worked so hard."

Qiu Mu's mother looked at Qiu Mu, and Qiu Mu explained: "I'm afraid you will object, so I want to become stronger quickly to protect me."

When Qiu Mu's mother heard this, she couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing softly, then looked at Ye Li, very satisfied.

"It's good to have this kind of heart."

Seeing that Gu Yu and Chen Siqi were not talking much, Qiu Mu's mother asked, "How are Xiaoyu and Siqi? Are things going well at school?"

Chen Siqi never thought that she would be asked, she choked on the food in her mouth, patted her chest, and swallowed in embarrassment.

Gu Yu said, "Are you okay? Eat slowly and drink some water." He handed over a glass of juice.

Chen Siqi explained with a smile: "... Xiaoli's cooking is so delicious, hehe."

Then Gu Yu replied: "Everything is going well, Siqi has officially started working, and I will go to practice in the second half of the year."

Qiu Mu's mother said, "It's good if it goes well", and then Chen Siqi asked curiously, "Are Xiao Mu and Xiao Li working in the Hangzhou company for the second half of the year?"

"Yes."

"It's amazing, we are looking for a job when we are the same age as you, but you already have your own business." Chen Siqi said: "When I was in school, I thought you two were very powerful, I didn't expect to be so powerful. "

"Speaking of which, I haven't heard much about what happened when you were in school." Qiu Mu's mother said, "Talk to Mom."

When she said this, her eyes were on Ye Li.

Ye Li was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Okay. Speaking of the things with Xiao Mu and the others at school, there is something to talk about..."

[The following author has something to say, there are some little easter eggs in this book, as well as the author's thoughts.The content is very long, more than 2000 words.There are not many dry ingredients, just look happy. ]

The author has something to say:

--

Talk about some little hidden easter eggs.

1. About the names and birthdays of the three main characters.

Qiu Mu, Ye Li: When the leaves leave, it is autumn.

Autumn Mu and Grain Rain: Vigorous spring is the opposite of dry and boring autumn, so the vibrant Grain Rain naturally attracts Qiu Mu.

The birthdays of Gu, Ye and Qiu are Gu Yu, Li Qiu and Qiu Equinox respectively.

Guyu was born on Guyu's day.

Ye Li’s Liqiu represents the arrival of autumn, after that the plane trees must start to shed their leaves (the story of Ye Li’s birthday was mentioned once in the article, and the date was mentioned at that time, but because it is too obscure, no one should see this easter egg w) .

Qiu Mu is from the south, and the autumn equinox in the south is the starting point of autumn.

2. About some characters and pets.

In fact, most of the characters, such as Liang Tao, □□, Ma Bin, Liu Feifei and even the little black dog, the related plots after they appeared on the stage, actually hinted at the various branches of Ye Li's life.Every character has a little shadow of Ye Li.

1. Single-parent family, withdrawn, indifferent, selfish, unpopular, Liang Tao, who feels that the cadre on duty is a waste of time, has a lot in common with Ye Li in elementary school.If Ye Li hadn't met Qiu Mu, he might have become like him.

2. Liu Yuan, who took the initiative to contact others and was rejected and troubled because of being too close, is another model of life path.As mentioned in the article, Ye Li is conscious of this, so he is unwilling to rely on Qiu Mu too much, for fear that he will dislike him.

3. Ma Bin, who relies on violence to face life, is finally moved by the warmth of humanity.In the article, he finally fell in love with someone, but he couldn't really like someone.The reason for restraining him is his family, implying that if Ye Li likes someone, he will not dare to choose free love because of the bad family environment (囧.

4. Liu Feifei, who can only face trouble alone, has no way to resist being bullied by a stronger group.Hints and Ye Li, who is an orphan and lives in society, has no one to ask for help when encountering problems.

The author has considered these things when writing the story, but the readers who read it don’t need to care about these details at all, and they won’t feel strange just by simply reading the story.Say it now, and let it be one of my little bad tastes.The characters on the stage are all Ye Li No. [-] and Ye Li No. [-] ww, which is quite interesting to think about.

Ah, I almost forgot there was a little black dog.

The little black dog is actually the main epitome of Ye Li. It tells the story of a stray puppy who is adopted by its owner and finally becomes a loyal dog. (Didn't Ma Bin say at the beginning that Ye Li said "just a wild dog!" Such an exaggerated word.)

At first, I planned to write the puppy as a little white cat with different pupils, who was in a mess when I first saw it, but once it was taken care of and cleaned, it was very, very beautiful.He doesn't pay attention to anyone, and is very cold, but he is very clingy to his master.Qiu Mu often plays with the kitten at home, and Ye Li's eyes are very warm when he sees this picture.

But after writing the story, I suddenly felt "Hey, something is not right" as the author, so I deleted all the content and changed it to what it is now.

For example, when Ye Qiu was in junior high school and they said they wanted to build a company together, the way Ye Li held the little black dog on his lap and looked at Qiu Mu, he regarded himself as a "pet" that depended on a certain existence to survive , so when I said "to be together forever", I intended to be willing to be a supporting role by Qiu Mu's side, and I didn't dare to ask for anything extravagantly;

After the KTV came back, the little black dog licked Qiu Mu's heels, leading to the clue that "you only do this kind of action if you like it", which made Qiu Mu aware of Ye Li's abnormality;

There is also a puppy who is doted on by Qiu Mu and the old man until he becomes a chubby pup without paying attention. Compared with Ye Li, who is also doted on but very conscious, he will not let himself be sloppy and self-willed, and grow into the outstanding one he is now. appearance.

These are almost all the "missions" that the author and I have given to the little black dog.

Um......

I thought so when I wrote it, but when I really said it outright, I always felt that something was wrong. orz

A little too weird 23333.

Just take a look and forget about it.

3. Regarding the two clothes that Ye Li "hidden".

Maybe Qiu Mu doesn’t remember, those two clothes are the clothes that Qiu Mu bought for Ye Li for the first time, and the clothes that Qiu Mu was wearing at the moment when Ye Li fell in love with Qiu Mu (when she went to the nursing home for the first time The one you're wearing.

"Brokeback Mountain" is mentioned in the article. Readers who have watched Brokeback Mountain should remember that there are scenes in the movie where the clothes of two characters hang together.Although Ye Li didn't cry when he watched the movie, he actually has a deep memory of this scene.At the beginning (junior high school) he thought that there would be a tragedy between himself and Qiu Mu, so he kept using this dress to imply his relationship with Qiu Mu.

The delicate heart of a young man thought that keeping two pieces of clothes would be enough to remember Qiu Mu for the rest of his life.

Later, the clothes were interpreted in another way and became Ye Li's souvenir.

4. Photos about Luoxia Mountain.

It has appeared many times in the article, and the importance of this photo in Ye Li's eyes has already been mentioned in the episode where he is the protagonist's perspective.Here is the meaning of this photo in Qiu Mu's eyes.

This is the first time that only the two of them took a group photo, and it is also the moment when Qiu Mu took the initiative to approach Ye Li.As long as it appears, it shows that Qiu Mu intends to further the relationship between the two (after Luoxiashan came back, she confessed her identity, the bathroom door was confirmed and she would tell Ye Li about her feelings soon, after she moved into her new home, she silently decided to live forever. to wait together).

5. Regarding the update time.

one nine: one five

yi (ye) jiu (qiu): yi (li) wu (mu)

Super indifferent easter egg 23333.

6. About the title of this book.

It was really difficult to come up with a name. I came up with the names of the three characters intuitively. It took me ten seconds at most, but I couldn't decide on the title and introduction of the book.In the end, I woke up one morning, and when I opened my eyes, I suddenly thought of the word "lucky one". I felt that Ye Li and Qiu Mu were very lucky to meet each other, so it was such an easy decision.

Lucky is not referring to Qiu Mu, but the two of them.

[But it was changed to "Handbook for Raising Bamboo Horses" by the author... I can change it back when I feel better. 】

7. About the origin of this book, which is not considered an easter egg, but I just want to say a few words.

At first, it was to relax my nerves, so I didn't even think about finishing the text or sending it out.The subject matter, character setting, and story are all based on my own personal taste.Unexpectedly, the more I wrote later, the more I devoted myself to it, and the more I wrote, the more serious I became. In the end, I overturned it and re-wrote it twice.One is the first edition of more than 20 words written with eyes closed and random. Most of it was written (unfinished) in less than two months, and the reading was very insincere.The first time was to organize the outline and write carefully, delete 10,000+ words of the original text, and even change the Gongshou (...) to get the current version - just finished writing it unconsciously.

It's really amazing to think about it, it's really written like this without any plan at all.Not seriously, the cause is really not serious.Seriously, I was also serious when I wrote the story.

So without any warning, Qiu Mu and Ye Li just appeared in front of me completely.

it's fate.

7. Tomorrow there will be a final episode, the content of which is quite special.

Thank you readers for watching me for so long, and thank you for being able to read this, thank you very much.
