brother-in-law's melancholy

Chapter 78

When Tang Yu woke up, Qin Yi was already gone, but his mobile phone was still on the bedside, the curtains were drawn, and the light in the bedroom was very dark. Check Qin Yi's, and glanced at the time when the screen was on, it was already evening.

He got up from the bed and felt much better after taking the medicine and sleeping. He twisted his waist, which was a little tired from sleeping, and dragged him out with cotton.

Qin Yi was making dinner in the open kitchen. There was soup in the pot, which was very fragrant. Tang Yu felt his already hungry stomach, walked over and smelled it, it should be yam soup.

"Brother Qin, do you want me to help?" Tang Yu walked to Qin Yi's side and asked, looking at the vegetables in the basket.

Qin Yi washed his hands, dried them with a towel, turned his head and touched his forehead, and felt relieved when he felt that it was no longer hot, and said to him, "Qiaoqiu, sit in the living room, and I'll call you when I'm done."

Tang Yu just wanted to be with him, and didn't want to go to the living room, so he grabbed his clothes very stickily, and stretched his head to see what he was doing.

Qin Yi was washing the dishes, and the fluffy head that suddenly popped up beside him made him a little dumbfounded, and asked him: "Why don't you go? There are nuts on the coffee table, you can eat a little to fill your stomach first, just don't eat so much gone."

Tang Yu was reluctant to leave. He remembered that when he was sick when he was a child, his mother would ask for leave to take care of him at home and take him everywhere. When cooking, he would sit on the small stool in the kitchen and watch her busy in the kitchen. busy.

Such memories are so warm. Tang Yu hasn't studied for many years. Now that he has Qin Yi, he can't help but want to find a little warmth from him at that time.

Qin Yi just let him hold him, thinking that he must be mentally fragile because of his illness, and he needs to cling to others, just like when he was sick. Thinking of this, he felt a little soft in his heart, if it wasn't for his wet hands, he would have turned his head Hug him now.

Tang Yu held Qin Yi in his arms, and moved wherever Qin Yi went, as if he wanted to be conjoined twins with Qin Yi.

"Grumble-"

Tang Yu blushed when he heard the sound, but continued to hold Qin Yi with both hands as if nothing happened, pretending that nothing happened.

Of course, Qin Yi also heard the sound of his hunger, smiled and patted his hand around his abdomen, and said to him in a half-coaxing and half-ordering tone: "Qiaoqiu, go and eat something, don't starve." gone."

Only then did Tang Yu grudgingly let him go, and let him go to the living room.

Qin Yi himself didn't prepare any snacks at home, and he wasn't even here to celebrate the New Year. He was busy after work, so he didn't prepare any biscuits, snacks, and fruits at home. There were only a few dried fruits on the coffee table, which he usually used to nourish his brain.

Tang Yu likes to eat macadamia nuts, the round ones, although a bit difficult to peel, but the flesh inside is crisp, fragrant, and sweet.

This brand of dried fruit smelled like milk. After eating two or three, Tang Yu peeled off two more, put them in his palm, ran to Qin Yi, and handed them to his mouth.

Qin Yi was frying the vegetables, and caught a glimpse of Tang Yu's face offering treasures from the corner of his eyes, so he ate the nuts into his mouth cooperatively, and kissed Tang Yu's finger by the way.

Tang Yu was taken aback by him, quickly retracted his hands, put his back behind his back, and secretly blushed, he was too thin-skinned, even after living with Qin Yi for so long, he was still easily teased by Qin Yi's little tricks Get red.

Qin Yi said: "Okay, you go and sit down first, and we'll eat soon."

When the dishes were brought to the table, he saw the yam soup. Qin Yi scooped him a large bowl and asked him to eat more to nourish his body.

Tang Yu's nose was sour from the heat of the soup, and he remembered to ask Qin Yi if anyone came to take care of him after he fell ill last time.

Qin Yi scooped up the minced meat from the pot and put it into his bowl, and replied, "I've recovered from the hospital, and I can take care of myself, so I don't need to bother others."

Tang Yu refuted him while eating the soft boiled yam: "How can this work? Although you feel comfortable, you are still weak. You should take a good rest."

Qin Yi looked at him and said with a smile: "But you're not by my side, who should I ask to take care of me?"

Tang Yu buried his head in the mouth of the bowl and said in a low voice: "Isn't that a coincidence, you can let your family take care of you first, um - at worst, I won't leave you for such a long time in the future, I am looking for a summer job here in summer vacation , I won’t go back.”

Qin Yi thought this plan was very good, nodded agreeingly, and said, "You can go to my office as a trainee. My office is just me, and I need some errands."

Tang Yu was choked up, and replied: "Isn't that an office romance? What if we are found out?"

Qin Yi laughed out loud: "How long will it be, maybe by then we will both have come out of the closet?"

Hearing the word "coming out", Tang Yu was a little nervous. He held the soup bowl tightly, his ears turned red with anxiety, and then asked him in a low voice, "When are you going to tell your family?"

Seeing how nervous he was, Qin Yi didn't put any pressure on him, and said casually, "Let's wait until the time is right, don't worry, let's take our time."

Thinking of his sister's strong appearance, Tang Yu couldn't help but feel a little worried: "What will happen if my sister doesn't agree?"

Qin Yi comforted him with a smile: "Let's see if I can convince her to agree."

Because when talking about coming out of the closet during the meal, Tang Yu's whole body became heavy, and he was thinking about the arguments he had to make with Tang Yun, and rejected them one by one.

After tidying up the kitchen, Qin Yi saw that he was still sitting on the dining table struggling with himself, so he comforted him with a relaxed tone: "Okay, okay, this matter is not urgent, Qiuqiu, don't be too nervous, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, so relax. Even if the whole world is against it, isn’t there me behind you?”

Tang Yu looked at him and asked, "Will your parents agree?"

Qin Yi: "Didn't I talk to my mother on the phone last time? She likes you very much. As for my father, he probably has forgotten about my son. Don't worry about his objection."

Tang Yu: "Then, what about your uncle?"

Last year, Qin Yi often went to his uncle's house during festivals. It is estimated that his uncle's family is still very important to him. Tang Yu didn't want Qin Yi to betray his relatives because of the two of them.

Qin Yi remembered that the last time he went back, his uncle asked him to take "the friend who brought the tea" over for dinner, to meet up or something, so he said to Tang Yu: "I gave him the tea you bought last time, and I will give it to him. He was quite happy when he said it was given by you, and let me take you there to play when I have time."

Tang Yu suddenly became more nervous: "You, how did you introduce me?"

Qin Yi rubbed his face with a smile, and said: "Just say that I'm a friend. When the time comes, I'll take you there. You don't have to be so nervous. Just treat it as a guest. My uncle likes guests at home. It's lively."

Tang Yu: "Are you really going? About when?"

Qin Yi thought for a while, and replied: "I'm going to pass the Lantern Festival again, I guess I'll have to stay there until evening to eat glutinous rice balls, if I can't find a reasonable excuse to come back, I won't be able to spend it with you, so I plan to go with you My uncle told me to take you there with me when the time comes."

Hearing this, Tang Yu stared at him dumbfounded, and said ah: "It's so fast, I'm not ready!"

There are still two or three days before the Lantern Festival, and Tang Yu immediately felt a little regretful. He should come back after the Lantern Festival...

Qin Yi smiled and said, "You've come all the time, isn't it the same if you see them earlier or later?"

Tang Yu retorted with a blushing face: "I came because I was afraid that you would get sick again, and you would not be able to take care of yourself by yourself, and I didn't come here to meet your parents..."

Qin Yi patted his head and comforted him: "It's okay, just treat yourself as an ordinary friend of mine. My uncle is rather rigid and won't think about other things."

Tang Yu was still nervous and couldn't help scratching his head and ears. Qin Yi sat with him for a while, and then prepared to take a bath first.

"Do you still want to take a bath tonight?" Qin Yi turned around and asked Tang Yu when he entered the bedroom, and then made up his own mind: "Let's take a bath, I'll fill you with water later, you can soak in the bathtub, wash your body The sweat is released, so I can sleep well at night."

Tang Yu let out an oh, and followed into the bedroom.

Qin Yi took the pajamas, put Tang Yu's change of clothes on the bed, and then went into the bathroom. Tang Yu sat on the sofa at the end of the bed and waited for him to come out. Hearing the sound of water sprinkling in the bathroom, he couldn't help but fantasize about Qin Yi taking a bath. picture.

……

When he realized what he was thinking, Tang Yu blushed and spat at himself fiercely, just as Qin Yi came out after washing and asked him to take a bath.

"I've put the water in. It may be a little hot, but it will be comfortable to soak. Can you wash it yourself, or do you want me to help you?"

Tang Yu went into the bathroom with a change of clothes in his arms, Qin Yi followed in worriedly, took the clothes in his hand and put them away on the shelf.Seeing that he didn't intend to go out, Tang Yu's heartbeat became very fast. When he thought of taking a bath in front of him, he felt embarrassed and looked forward to Qin Yi's reaction.

Seeing that he was motionless, Qin Yi thought that he had never used the bathtub before, and didn't know what to do. He raised his hand to undress him, but as soon as he touched the collar, Tang Yu retreated reflexively. A very tangled look.

Thinking of whether it was Qin Yi in front of him, or the lover he had been with for several months, Tang Yu froze in embarrassment, at a loss for what to do.

Sooner or later, the two of them will be honest with each other. If he has been so stingy, will Qin Yi feel that he is not sincere enough?

Tang Yu was thinking wildly, and Qin Yi thought he was not used to being waited on and undressed for a bath, so he didn't make things difficult for him, bent down and poured the essential oil into the hot water in the bathtub, and immediately the bathroom was filled with the scent of flowers and plants.

Sitting on the edge of the bathtub, Qin Yi said to him without looking back: "I put some essential oils for you, which can promote metabolism and blood circulation, just soak for ten minutes and you'll be fine."

He put away the bottles and cans, got up and turned around, and saw Tang Yu standing naked behind him, shivering all the time, not knowing whether it was from the cold or psychological effects, and even under the warm light of the bathroom, he could still see his skin Goosebumps.

Tang Yu also mustered up a lot of courage to decide to meet Qin Yi honestly. Compared with Qin Yi's, his figure is really unrecognizable. He has neither a tall body nor strong muscles, just like a white chicken. And a little inferiority complex.

Qin Yi was taken aback for a moment, and his first reaction was to turn his eyes away. He has lived for 30 years, except for occasionally going to the bathhouse with his classmates in college. He has never seen anyone else's body for so many years, let alone this is the person he likes. Although he is older, his thoughts on love are still very simple.

Tang Yu didn't care to pay attention to Qin Yi's reaction. He just wanted to climb into the bathtub and soak in the hot water. He had never used the bathtub before. He had lived in G City for so many years, and he always took a shower. After standing in it, he didn't know which way to go. sit.

Seeing him standing helplessly in the bathtub, Qin Yi couldn't help laughing, Tang Yu's appearance looked pure and innocent, and there was really no way for people to think about dirty things, Qin Yi hinted that he would just be It is to take care of an older child and help him sit down in the bathtub.

After putting him in the water, Qin Yi asked him: "Can I wash it myself? Or do you want me to watch over it?"

Tang Yu looked up at him with eyes that were wet from the heat, and Qin Yi's heart softened. He put the bath toy that was on the window sill as a gift when he bought the shower gel into the bathtub, and let him pass the time of taking a bath.

Qin Yi saw that he had adapted to the way of taking a bath, so he went out to dry his hair.

Seeing that he left without hesitation, Tang Yu squeezed the inflatable toy as if discouraged.

Lovers are used to showing themselves to attract each other's attention. Although it is naive, it is almost an instinctive reaction for those who are in love for the first time.

After Qin Yi dried her hair, she received an overseas call from her mother. Ms. Jiang on the other end of the phone was still young and flamboyant, as if she had nothing to worry about.

"Hello, my dear son, do you miss your mother during the Chinese New Year? Did you have a happy Chinese New Year with Little Sweetheart Qiuqiu?"

Qin Yi responded to her with a smile: "Very happy, where have you been, Mom, and how do you feel that you are getting younger and younger?"

Qin's mother likes to hear such words the most, and said with a coquettish smile: "Mom and the company's models went to Hawaii for vacation. There are so many sexy beauties and handsome guys. They look seductive, and they seem to be decades younger than themselves!"

Qin Yi smiled and said: "Then I guess the next time I see you, I won't recognize you. Maybe we go shopping together, and people think you are my sister."

Qin's mother said exaggeratedly: "Of course I will be regarded as a brother and sister when I go shopping with you, but now that I have Qiuqiu, I must be like a mother and son standing together with Qiuqiu. Hey, speaking of this, you old man Dad didn't go back this year, did he?"

Qin Yi asked her: "What? Do you want to see him?"

Qin's mother paused there for a while, and said angrily: "Anyone who wants to see him, just ask if he is there. If he is not, I will go back after a while to meet my son's little boyfriend."

Qin Yi smiled and said: "Then you come back, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I just told Qiuqiu about coming out today, so you can give him some peace of mind when you come back."

Qin's mother hurriedly agreed, she was so happy that she didn't notice Qin Yi's meaning of "I haven't seen you for a long time" at all.

But Qin Yi has become used to it. His mother is such a person who pursues freedom and happiness. She used to be ignorant when she was young, and would complain that she didn't come back to see her. Unlike other mothers, who regard their son as the center of the world.After growing up, she became a little more sensible and knew about the affairs between her parents. Although Qin Yi still couldn't fully understand the adults' thoughts, she also learned to respect their choices.When he came out of society as an adult and had his own pursuits and ideas, he gradually realized the struggle and helplessness of his parents, and he became more tolerant and understanding towards them, and he no longer hated them.

After all, if it was him who was arranged by his family to marry and have children with someone he didn't like at a young age, he would also feel disgusted.He is sometimes thankful that his parents gave him a living example, letting him know how important freedom of marriage is, so he was able to use their case to tenaciously resist the family marriage, and it is today, just now At the right age to start a family and start a business, he met the person he loves the most, and after so many years of recharging his energy, his already full wings are enough to protect his loved one from wind and rain.

Even if he is not recognized by the uncle's family after coming out, Qin Yi has saved a lot of savings and made a lot of investments over the years. If Tang Ji doesn't want to settle in City H, he can go back to City G with him, anyway. There is no concern in City H, where there is Tang Yu, there is his home.

Qin Yi chatted with Qin's mother for a while, and made an appointment to come back, and then suddenly remembered that Tang Yu was still soaking in the bathtub, wondering if the water was still hot.

"Mom, call me when you come back. I'll take Qiuqiu to pick you up. I have to go into the bathroom to see how Qiuqiu is doing in the shower. Hang up first."

"Hey! You go, go, it's all so good that we can take a bath together. Mom is so relieved."

Qin Yi put the phone away with a smile, turned around and went into the bathroom.

Tang Yu soaked for a while, but Qin Yi didn't come back. He waited until the water in the bathtub was not hot enough, and then he slowly climbed out of the bathtub.

Just when Qin Yi came in, seeing that he was wet all over, he pulled the bath towel and wrapped him up, picked him up and walked outside.

While brushing his hair, Qin Yi talked about the phone call with his mother just now: "My mother will come back to see us next month, and then we will pick up the plane."

Tang Yu was still doubting his own charm. He raised his head in surprise when he heard what Qin Yi said, pointed at himself with his hand wrapped in the towel and asked, "Should I go too?"

Qin Yi smiled and said, "As my boyfriend, shouldn't you be courteous in front of my mother?"

Tang Yu suddenly became nervous, full of a sense of mission, and nodded vigorously.

After Qin Yi dried his hair, he went back to the bathroom to take out his clothes and put them on again. After Tang Yu straightened his arms, the ribs on his body were obvious. He asked Qin Yi a little dejectedly: "Brother Qin, are you Don't you like my figure?"

Qin Yi asked "Huh?" suspiciously, seeing that he was not very happy, it took him a while to realize what he was referring to.

He couldn't help laughing out loud, pinched Tang Yu's bulging cheeks, and said, "What are you thinking about when you are young, is this the time to think about those things?"

Tang Yu was slapped with a dirty hat, and got into bed angrily.
