When the New Year's Eve was the busiest time, Yin Le was thinking about running away from home.
Dad doesn't care, mother is watching the excitement, eldest brother is not human, eldest sister-in-law, eldest sister-in-law was taken badly by eldest brother, life is so difficult, can't make it through.
He dared to sit in the corner of the sofa without words, holding his New Year's gift, slumping his head.
"Xiao Le, come and help make dumplings!" Qiu Feiqian called out from the restaurant.
"Oh..." Yin Le replied listlessly, and glanced at the door.
Sure enough, run away from home. No one in this family cares about him anymore. He is the little cabbage in the field, and he suffers from the eldest brother every day.
"Little Le."
Yu Zhen suddenly came in like a thief, took out a small key from the pocket of the home clothes, and quickly stuffed it into his hand, and said in a low voice, "Don't be upset, here you are, don't tell your brother."
Yin Le was taken aback for a moment, picked up the key, and saw that it was the key to the parcel storage box in the community. A small flame was lit up in his ashes, and he turned to look at Yu Zhen: "Brother Yu, this is..."
"The latest figure you want, I asked someone, uh, I figured out a way to buy it." Yu Zhen explained vaguely, hearing footsteps approaching, and hurriedly straightened up pretending to be nothing, and said in a higher voice: "Let's go, help mom make dumplings, with shrimp stuffing you like."
Yin Le is not an acting temperament, and his heart is filled with joy. He threw away the test paper in his arms, turned around and gave Yu Zhen a bear hug, and said cheerfully, "Brother Yu! You are my brother." I love you! I—"
"Yin Le."
Yin Yan stood at the junction of the dining room and the living room, with fruit in one hand and a fruit knife in the other. The tip of the fruit knife was facing this side, shining coldly under the light.
"... Brother Yu, I will repay you."
Yin Le decisively retracted his hand, then turned and ran towards the door in a stride, without wearing any coat, rushed out of the house wearing only house clothes, and ran towards the parcel storage box of the community against the cold wind.
Yu Zhen: "..." Pig teammate.
"Yu Zhen." Yin Yan seemed to call calmly.
Yu Zhen turned his head stiffly, and raised the corners of his mouth to smile flatteringly: "Well, why did you come out... Actually, I can explain..."
Yin Yan's fruit knife in his right hand landed on the fruit in his left hand, took a quiet look at him, and turned away.
"..." It's over, and I'm angry again.
Ten minutes later, Yin Le rushed back with a flushed face, holding a hand-made box in his arms, so happy that he couldn't see the teeth.
"Ge Yu, Ge Yu, Ge Yu, how did you get this? This is so hard to buy. It is sold in limited quantities. I didn't get it when I queued up!"
Yu Zhen wanted to kill him now, sincerely.
"Xiaozhen, you actually bought this for him, so I can make him happy." Qiu Feiqian walked out with a smile on his face, reached out and rubbed Yin Le's cold face, rolled his eyes and pushed him. He went upstairs: "Go, wash your face with hot water, and drink a cup of hot water, don't catch a cold."
With the gift she wanted, Yin Le was satisfied and immediately became a good baby, happily holding the gift upstairs.
Two minutes later, Yin Le's surprise scream sounded again: "Ah! There is one more! Ah, I must be dreaming!"
Qiu Feiqian turned to look at Yin Yan who had not spoken, smiled and glared at him, and asked, "You bought him too?"
"Only once a year." Yin Yan replied, turning around and entering the restaurant.
Yu Zhen looked at his back, listened to Yin Le's yelling upstairs, and brushed four big characters in his heart—it's really over.
When Yin Yan said to send the test papers before, he wondered if it was inappropriate, so he thought about preparing this figure, and seeing that Yin Yan didn’t seem to like Yin Le’s wasting money to play these, so he prepared to send it secretly, no Let Yin Yan know.
It turned out that Yin Yan actually bought it.
This is the first time that the two have no such a tacit understanding, and the first time that the two have such a tacit understanding.
He followed with a slight guilty conscience, walked to Yin Yan's side and stared at his hand making dumplings, honestly: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you bought it too, let alone buy presents for Xiao Le with your back."
"Buying gifts is your intention, you are not wrong." Yin Yan replied calmly, making dumplings with steady hands, and every movement is very standard, elegant and beautiful.
Yu Zhen was a little bit fascinated... It was so beautiful, Yin Yan's hands seemed to be getting better and better.
It seems that after he entered the Tao and advanced to the next level, Yin Yan has also become better in some aspects. The inside is not clear. From the outside, the person is still the same person, but every detail has become more bearable.
Also, the fate of the two is connected, and half of the merits they have obtained will be divided into Yin Yan. He has grown taller and stronger, so should Yin Yan.
"What are you looking at?" Yin Yan asked suddenly.
"You look good."
Yu Zhen answered intuitively, and then he smashed the dumpling in Yin Yan's hand.
"Puff." After stepping forward, Qiu Feiqian, who silently listened to the conversation between the two, couldn't help but smile, teasing and joking, "Oh, our Xiaoyan is shy."
shy? Will Yin Yan be shy
Yu Zhen moved in his heart and looked up at Yin Yan.
However, Yin Yan put down the dumplings, raised a plate of dumplings wrapped on the table sideways, turned around and went to the kitchen, leaving only a back view of Yu Zhen.
Is it really shy to run so fast
Yu Zhen felt a little itchy suddenly, and as soon as he was about to follow, Yin Le rushed in with a piece of paper. He thiefly smiled and said, "Brother Yu, Brother Yu, I also have a figure in my room, the gift giver. It’s your name, hehe, someone gave me a gift in your name, look!"
The strip of paper stretched out to the front, saying that it was a strip of paper. It was actually a New Year's card. The characters on the card were machine-printed, not handwritten. There was a blessing on it, and the signature at the back was indeed his name.
Yu Zhen reached out and took the card. His five senses superior to ordinary people made him immediately smell the cool breath of Yin Yan on the greeting card, and his uncontrollable brain made up Yin Yan's face as he prepared gifts and greeting cards seriously. , The heart beats quickly, and the corners of his mouth can't help but cock up.
"Oh yo yo, Yu brother, you laugh so... uh uh uh."
Yin Le was about to smirk when he opened his mouth, but Qiu Feiqian quickly covered his eyes and hands, and dragged away strongly.
Yu Zhen touched the greeting card in her hand, moved and warmed, paused, and walked towards the kitchen.
Give gifts to Yin Le in his name, and deliberately use this kind of surprise method to make the Yin family like him more. Although in fact, the Yin family has shown to like him very much.
He stepped into the kitchen, walked behind Yin Yan, stretched the card over, and said, "Thank you."
Yin Yan put the dumplings in the refrigerator, closed the door of the refrigerator, turned around, stuffed a wooden box into his arms, and said: "New Year's gift, one year older, next year, I will work harder to practice." Head, turned around and left.
"..." Why doesn't it seem shy, but rather angry.
The smile on Yu Zhen's face disappeared. He looked at the carved wooden box in his hand and rubbed it twice. Suddenly he understood his anger in his heart.
… Is it because I prepared gifts for everyone else in the Yin family, but I didn't prepare them for him
After guessing, he began to secretly observe Yin Yan, and deliberately waited for everyone to finish the year. After the two returned to the room, they gave Wu Wuya a small gift in front of him.
"I don't know if you like cat toys or not. This is a ball of yarn wrapped around the yarn I bought myself. The yarn is soaked in a lotus pond. It is fragrant. It smells very comfortable. You smell it."
The yarn ball is very beautiful, it is wrapped with colored thread, and the surface is also hooked with patterns, and it smells really good.
Nihility liked it very much, and couldn't help but stretched his paw and pulled it a bit. After Yu Guang saw his host's seemingly calm but murderous face, he trembled, and responded with a meow, holding the ball back into the space.
"It's time to wash and sleep." Yin Yan got up and walked into the bathroom with a calm face.
Yu Zhen looked sideways at his back, observed his walking speed, and finally couldn't help laughing.
It was really angry because of the lack of gifts.
In his eyes, Yin Yan is powerful, omnipotent, and reliable. He can face even before Taishan collapse. As a result, this person is actually sulking for not receiving a gift, and he is acting so awkward. .
Like a child.
I always felt that the awe of the elders in my heart when facing Yin Yan, it snapped to pieces.
He evoked nothingness, from which he was about to come from the small handmade sachet that he secretly stored, squeezed it embarrassingly, hesitated, and temporarily put the sachet under the pillow.
After they finished washing, Yu Zhen pretended to lie down on the bed as if nothing had happened. After turning off the lights, she lay silently. After guessing that Yin Yan should have been asleep, she reached out her hand under the pillow and took out the small sachet, and stretched her arms towards Yin Yan quietly. Tuck it under the pillow.
Snapped.
The back of his hand suddenly warmed and he was caught.
Yu Zhen's eyes widened in fright, and his hands retracted reflexively.
"Don't move." Yin Yan's voice sounded in the dark, and then there was another snap, and the bedside lamp was turned on.
Yin Yan sat up, raised his stiff hand, gently squeezed away the fingers he was holding firmly, and used dark blue cloth inside to draw a small sac with the word "yan" embroidered with white silk thread on it. Came out.
"Give it to me?" Yin Yan asked with his eyes down, playing with this simple sachet.
Perhaps because of the light, Yu Zhen trance saw a trace of smile and a trace of shyness in Yin Yan's eyes.
Shy? No, no, this must be an illusion.
He flushed a little, retracted his hands and hid himself in the quilt, and responded vaguely.
In fact, he didn't plan to give the sachet at the beginning, but most of the things in his hand were given by Yin Yan, and the only more valuable ones were the Bodhi lotus seeds and lotus petals.
He thought about it, but still felt that these two things were just right to make sachets, thinking that Yin Yan, as an "antique", should have worn sachets in the past, and would not reject this, so he just searched for the strategy. Bit the bullet and made one.
"The inside is powder made from dried lotus petals. I picked a few cores of lotus seeds and grind them in. The taste is very light, with a bit astringent bitterness, not too feminine. I used the lotus seeds to make lotus cakes. , In the void, you, you can take it and eat it."
Seeing Yin Yan hadn't spoken all the time, he couldn't help but explain it, then rolled over the quilt like evasion, and said, "It's late, it's time to go to bed, good night."
He said that, but his eyes were still open and his ears were upright, listening carefully to Yin Yan's movements.
It was quiet for a long time, and then a low chuckle came: "You are lying in the turntable every day, are you doing this?"
This was the first time Yu Zhen heard Yin Yan's laughter, low, with a hint of relaxation and joy, sliding across the eardrum like silk, which was very nice.
He buried his head in the quilt, and felt that his ears were itchy, and even the part from the ear to the neck was a little hot, and he replied: "It didn't take long to do it... My handwork is relatively rough, don't dislike it."
It was a short silence again.
"Thank you, I like it very much."
Yin Yan's voice returned to calm, then his head warmed, a hand came up, and he gently rubbed it.
"good night."
Snapped.
The light went out, the mattress moved, and the person next to him should have fallen asleep.
Yu Zhen's tight body slowly relaxed. He wanted to turn his head to see what Yin Yan's expression is now, but he didn't dare, and there was no light in the room, and he couldn't see it. My heart seemed to grow grass, and I couldn't calm down inexplicably.
that's all? He suddenly felt depressed again.
He also embroidered the characters on the sachet. Although it was a bit ugly, he embroidered it by himself after all.
Could it be that the lights are too dim and Yin Yan didn't see it
Just thinking about it, his body slowly relaxed, his eyes closed little by little.
After Yu Zhen fell asleep, Yin Yan opened his eyes, took out the sachet under the pillow and squeezed it, the corner of his mouth was slightly hooked, and he stretched out his arms to hug the person with his back to him, gently propped up his body, bowed his head, and kissed him. It was printed on his forehead.
"The evildoer."
Even in the realm of comprehension where there are not so many rules, sachets can only be given to each other when lovers express their hearts.
The next day, the two woke up with entangled limbs, Yin Yan still looked calm, but Yu Zhen somehow felt that he was very happy, very happy.
Because of the sachet
He guessed narcissistically, his eyes rolled around Yin Yan, but he didn't find the sachet, and he felt a little regretful and depressed in his heart.
Sure enough, sachets are still not suitable for wearing.
"What a daze?" Yin Yan turned back from the closet, holding two scarves in his hand, handing him one, and said: "It was windy today and it was a bit cold. Remember to put on your scarf when you go out."
Yu Zhen returned to his senses, looking at the two scarves of the same style and different colors in his hand, he didn't notice anything wrong, nodded obediently, and stretched out his arms to take the scarves over.
The rule of the Yin family is that on the first day of the Lunar New Year, you must go to the ancestor to visit the tomb. After the ancestor sacrifice, you can only eat vegetarian food, which is slightly different from the rules of other families.
The family left early, Yin Hexiang drove himself, Qiu Feiqian took the co-pilot, waited for the car to turn out of the villa and turned to talk to Yu Zhen who was sitting in the back row.
"We are going to worship not only our ancestors, but also those of Grandpa Yin Yan’s comrades. We have to go to two cemeteries and go to the martyrs’ cemetery. Xiaozhen, I think you haven’t eaten much for breakfast. If you are hungry for a while Say, I asked Ma Hu to prepare some snacks and put them in the trunk, so you can cushion them when you are hungry."
Yu Zhen nodded to express his understanding, and was a little more curious about Yin Yan's grandfather who had been dead for many years.
The Yin family was originally sparsely populated, and it happened to be at war in the generation of Grandpa Yin Yan, which caused Grandpa Yin to marry very late. Yin Hexiang is an old son of Grandpa Yin. When Yin Hexiang grows up, Grandpa Yin is already very old.
Later, the old man insisted on staying alive until Yin Yan was born and named Yin Yan before he left with satisfaction.
"Dad, he is a bit superstitious. When Xiao Yan was born, he didn't know where he heard a Daoist's order. He insisted that Xiao Yan's five elements lacked fire and must have a name with fire, otherwise he could not grow up safely. "
Qiu Feiqian was talking about the past and couldn't help sighing: "If Dad is still there, it will be fine. He will definitely like you when he sees you."
"You can see it today." Yin Hexiang said, his expression and tone were rarely relaxed and gentle, and he reached out and patted Qiu Feiqian's legs to soothe him.
Qiu Feiqian returned to his senses, turned around with a smile, and replied, "Yes, I can see it today."
The cemetery arrived soon. Yin Hexiang and Qiu Feiqian bought flowers at the entrance of the cemetery. They didn't buy anything like joss sticks and paper money. They only brought the flowers into the cemetery.
"Grandpa Yin Yan said that burning paper pollutes the environment, so we don't let us burn them. He said the flowers look good, just send some flowers." Qiu Feiqian walked a step behind Yu Zhen and explained to him as he walked.
Yu Zhen nodded, thinking that Grandpa Yin should be an interesting old man just like his grandpa.
Grandpa Yin’s tomb is a joint burial tomb, buried with Grandma Yin, and surrounded by the tombs of other Yin family ancestors, all gathered together, but there is a sense of reunion.
Because there is no need to burn paper money, the procedure of sweeping the tomb has become much simpler. Send flowers, wipe the tombstone, talk to the tombstone, and worship one by one, and the tomb will be swept.
During the worship, Yu Zhen and Yin Yan had a solemn attitude. They were not considered to be the real Yin family, but also received the favor of the Yin family. It is reasonable to thank the ancestors of the Yin family.
Because there are so many places to go, everyone didn't delay too much. After the worship, they left immediately and drove to the next cemetery.
After a circle of comrades-in-arms worship, the time has shifted to the afternoon, and the family has no time to eat at all. They only use the snacks prepared in advance and the simple meals bought by the roadside to cushion them.
The Martyrs Cemetery was placed at the last stop. Many people came to sweep the tomb on the first day of the Lunar New Year. They were family members of martyrs, and there were many old people of all ages. There were also many old people with gray hair coming to worship comrades-in-arms.
Yu Zhen sighed, feeling a little heavy in his heart.
When leaving the Martyrs Cemetery, everyone was a little silent. Yu Zhen was a little distracted and almost ran into an old man. Yin Yan quickly pulled him away with his eyesight, nodded apologetically to the old man, and then took his hand and led him to move forward. Go.
Yu Zhen returned to his senses, wondering how she suddenly lost her mind. After being upset, she turned her head and nodded apologetically to the old man who had just been hit by him. After that, she didn't dare to be distracted and followed Yin Yan closely.
"Grandpa, why did you deliberately hit that young man just now? We eat Taoist food and do bad things like touching porcelain. Grandpa Grandpa will dream of using lightning to strike you at night."
The handsome young man supported the old man and grumbled deliberately.
"That's how you look at your grandpa and me? Be careful I rush you back for the New Year!" The gray-haired old man turned his head and glared at him, then looked at Yu Zhen and Yin Yan who were carrying them away, squinting his eyes. Said: "But I really want to touch porcelain. The kid doesn't know what he did. The merits of his body are as thick as a golden doll, but I always feel a little strange..."
"Golden light of merit?" The young man's eyes brightened, and he raised his neck to look at Yu Zhen, his eyes staring and staring, "Where? Where is the golden light, why didn't I see anything?"
The old man pulled him back angrily, and said, "You can see something with your eyes! It's all about the same age, what's the situation in your family, what's your situation. Okay, don't look at it, you can't see it." To you!"
As he said that, he couldn't help but looked over again, glanced over Yu Zhen, and moved to Yin Yan who was next to him.
Not only the golden doll, but the breath of this young man is also a bit strange. He clearly looks like an ordinary person, but how does it feel like the statue of the ancestor in Guanli, with clouds covering the mist.
After a busy day, everyone took a good break after returning home. After that, Qiu Feiqian began to prepare gifts for her mother’s home tomorrow. Yu Zhen took Yin Yan to the corner and asked: "You said that the old man I almost hit today was a bit wrong. What's wrong? There is evil spirit in him?"
Yin Yan shook his head: "No, that old man, like your grandfather, is also a Taoist family and has merit."
"He is a Taoist priest?" Yu Zhen was surprised.
"Not a formal Taoist priest, you can barely be considered a monk, you don't need to care too much, they can't help you." Yin Yan soothed, and a red thread suddenly appeared out of thin air in his hand, which was wrapped around his wrist.
"What is this?" Yu Zhen wondered.
Yin Yan answered calmly: "Dog rope."
"???"
Yu Zhen was silent, staring at him, silently condemning
"This is a tracing magic weapon. The person who refines it named it dog rope." Yin Yan explained, took out another red rope, wrapped it around his wrist, and showed it to him.
Okay, now everyone is a dog.
Yu Zhen retracted his gaze, stared at the red rope in his hand, persuaded himself to accept the name, and asked: "Who made this magic weapon and how did you give it such a name? Could it be you..."
"No." Yin Yan replied, suddenly raised his hand and touched his forehead, lightly poked, and replied: "Yes... my apprentice did it. He said he likes this name very much."
Yu Zhen was taken aback, suddenly feeling sore, and asked: "Apprentice? Do you still have an apprentice?"
Yin Yan did not answer, retracted his hand, patted his head lightly, and turned away.
Yu Zhen frowned as he watched him leave, glanced at the red rope on his wrist, pulled his sleeve to cover it, and said angrily: "What kind of broken apprentice, send this kind of thing to Master, implying that Master is a dog and is not filial!"
