Chapter 29

After this incident, Lin Zhanyu felt that with Wei Qingyun's current state, it was indeed impossible to continue too quickly.

He made up his mind to wait, and he did what he said, but he didn't expect that it would be a full year before he saw the turning point again.

It was the winter of the 28th year of the Republic of China, and Wei Xueyi, who was two and a half years old, was already able to run around the yard.

It was approaching New Year's Eve again, the two of them finished their work for the night, Lin Zhanyu had just moved the table back to the corner, when he turned his head and saw a young and pretty girl talking to Wei Qingyun.

He is too familiar with this kind of scene, it was like this at Qiao Li's wedding banquet back then.Lin Zhanyu was a little dazed, and many messy thoughts came to his mind at the same time, and finally turned into one sentence:

Back then when I was young, I had already missed him once, and there could be no second time.

Thinking of this, he became more determined.So he stepped forward in two steps in three steps, reached out and grabbed Wei Qingyun's sleeve: "Brother, I have something to tell you."

He has a cold face like a debt collector, which is too abrupt and rude.Seeing this, Wei Qingyun hurriedly spoke to the girl, and then pushed the young man to the backyard.

"What's wrong?" Wei Qingyun thought something happened to him.

"Who is that girl?" Lin Zhanyu didn't want to look at him, so he lowered his head slightly, but he still couldn't help but look over at him. Under the moonlight, Wei Qingyun's expression was a little anxious, and it seemed that he was really worried.

This eased the young man's mood a little: "When did you meet?"

"I just met tonight." Wei Qingyun looked at him in confusion: "What exactly do you want to ask?"

"So that's it." Lin Zhanyu realized that he was too sensitive, and suddenly couldn't hang on his face: "It's okay, I'll go first."

"Come back!" Wei Qingyun would not let him go so easily, and snapped, "If you don't speak clearly today, you will never go back."

"Brother Wei, stop arguing." A guy heard their argument, and came out of the house wearing a coat: "Brother Lin is still young, even if he made a mistake, you should be more tolerant of him."

Wei Qingjun knew that he had made a noise and made people rest, so he nodded and dragged Lin Zhanyu back to the house quickly.

"Let's talk." Wei Qingyun closed the door and stared at him coldly: "When I married Lu Jiang, you also lost your temper for a long time, but it got better in the past two years, and today you started again. After so many years In the past, you should have known that even if your senior brother is married, he is still your senior brother, and the kindness he treats you will not detract in the slightest. Why do you want to do this?"

Lin Zhanyu leaned helplessly against the cold wall, and raised his eyes to meet the man's gaze.He found that his senior brother's appearance was really upright, even if the pair of slightly raised phoenix eyes were filled with anger at the moment, he found it very pleasing to the eye.

Thinking about this, he laughed at himself, thinking: Lin Zhanyu, Lin Zhanyu, this is the time, why do you still have the heart to think about this?

"Speak." Wei Qingyun became more and more angry: "Don't pretend to be deaf and dumb here."

Pretending to be deaf and dumb?Lin Zhanyu thought: You think I don't want to talk about it?If I really tell you, I'm afraid you will be so angry that you would like to kill me.

"Let's go." Wei Qingyun felt extremely tired when he saw that he didn't eat oil and salt: "When you have figured it out, come to me again."

"No need." Lin Zhanyu grabbed his wrist: "Don't you want to know why? I'll tell you all."

He sneered a few times, pointed at the other party, and heard himself say word by word: "Wei Qingyun, listen to me. I have a crush on you, and I have a crush on you a long time ago."

These old thoughts were buried in his heart, and now they suddenly saw the light of day, like dusty old wine opened, and the smell could not stop overflowing.

Lin Zhanyu looked sad: "I fell in love with you before you knew Lu Jiang. I don't want you to marry a wife. I want you to be with me. You forced me to say this. Are you satisfied?"

Lin Zhanyu found that the moment his words came out, his brother Wei was at a loss for a moment, as if he didn't expect him to say these things at all.

It seems that the senior brother has never thought about that.Lin Zhanyu was a little lonely.

However, before he could recover, he slapped Wei Qingyun firmly.

"Nonsense!" Wei Qingyun was clearly exasperated: "Who taught you all this?"

"No one taught me." Lin Zhanyu also went all out: "I just like you, do you still need someone to teach you?"

Wei Qingyun stopped talking, but walked to the door, trying to take advantage of the winter air to calm himself down.I don't know how long it took, but when he turned around again, he looked very calm: "Let's go for a walk, I have something to talk to you about."

Hearing this, the young man closed his eyes in despair: "Okay."

Lin Zhanyu followed behind him obediently, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, Wei Qingyun finally stopped.

"Zhan Yu," even at this time, he still tried his best to make himself appear gentle, even though he said only cold words: "How can you have such thoughts?"

Lin Zhanyu still didn't want to look at him, but he still couldn't help it. He was attracted by his eyes: there was endless warmth and real concern in them. Since his father passed away, this was one of the few comforts in Lin Zhanyu's life. .

"Senior Brother," Lin Zhanyu said in an extremely difficult way: "As long as I can remember, I have been willing to treat me the most sincerely in this world. Apart from Dad, there are only you and Master. I want to be a family with you, and I want to treat you even better in the future. I will do my best to let you and Xueyi have a good life."

"Aren't we a family now?" Wei Qingyun asked back.

"It's not the same." Lin Zhanyu denied, "I want to be the closest to you, and I want to be your only one, not like me and Brother Zhang in Beiping, who drift away from each other as passers-by and only go to a letter every ten or eight years. An old friend of the letter."

He smiled suddenly: "Actually, I also know that this is all my wishful thinking. But I never regret meeting you."

"Then what is so good about Longyang, I don't know much about it, I only know that it is a trick that rich people like to play." Wei Qingyun looked at him, feeling a pain in his heart: "We little people can survive and stutter. Yes, it’s good enough to have clothes to wear. Now that you’re growing up, sooner or later you’ll find a girl to have children with, and when you’re old, you’ll have your children and grandchildren doing their filial piety in front of you. Don’t you want such a life?”

This is almost bittersweet.Lin Zhanyu didn't make a sound, he didn't know what to say.What made him even more uncomfortable was that he found out that his senior brother was right, the other party's kindness to him has never changed a bit over the years.This person thinks of him in everything, protects him and misses him like his own brother.

Or, even if there are many elders who are related by blood, they can't do what Wei Qingyun did, teaching him earnestly and planning for him.

So just now Lin Zhanyu's firmness in his heart has begun to waver.He felt that he was nothing at all, that he had failed Senior Brother Wei's wishes and the care and love he had shown him for so many years.

He didn't know what to say, he just shook his head.

Wei Qingyun no longer looked at him, but looked up at the bright moon and sparse stars in the sky.After a long time, he sighed and asked in a low voice, "What did you think when Lu Jiang and I got married?"

Lin Zhanyu's gaze never left Wei Qingyun's face until he heard this.He lowered his head: "Sister-in-law Lu Jiang is a good person."

He closed his eyes for a moment, and the beautiful appearance of that good sister-in-law back then came to mind: "I thought at the time, maybe I'm not a lucky person, but when I thought about it again, I knew that you must be wearing a red wedding dress at that time." Standing in the crowd, Fu smiled happily, and suddenly felt that he was also quite complete."

As he spoke, he suddenly smiled: "Brother, do you still remember the day I tricked you into going to the pharmacy? In fact, I went to the big Buddha in the temple by the city to make a wish. I told the Buddha that my parents had passed away and had no children." I have no daughter, I have nothing, I have nothing to cherish, I only want to lose ten years of life in exchange for the marriage line with you in the next life. How many years older than me in this life, I want to accompany you to grow old, I can only lose ten years , otherwise, in 20 or 30 years, I will also agree."

"Nonsense! How can you joke about your own life?" He made Wei Qingyun angry again: "You..."

In an instant, many words flooded into his mind, Wei Qingyun imagined that he would scold this ignorant boy sternly like countless times in the past, but he felt as if a piece of cotton was stuffed in his throat, and he was so stuffy that he couldn't say anything.

"Senior Brother, I'm sorry for you." This was sincere, because seeing him like this, Lin Zhanyu felt that he was simply asking for trouble.

The young man was so ashamed that he blushed instantly, knowing that he was really reckless that night, so he hurriedly bowed to Wei Qingyun.

Having said all the words, he felt that he had no regrets: "Don't worry, I'll pack up and leave tomorrow morning."

"Where do you want to go?" Lin Zhanyu just turned around and wanted to go back, but was grabbed by Wei Qingyun. He turned around in astonishment, only to hear the other party say: "The world is so chaotic, where can you go? Stop making trouble , come back with me."

"Brother..." Lin Zhanyu looked at him in bewilderment.

"Be obedient." Wei Qingyun lowered his face, showing the majesty of being a senior brother.

Although Lin Zhanyu returned to Wuji Restaurant, his mind had already drifted away.He lay in bed, unable to sleep again.He thought, after all the trouble tonight, can there be room for change between him and Wei Qingyun in the future?

After thinking about it, he simply didn't sleep, sat up and put on his clothes.He opened the cabinet, and after a few years, he started to pack his luggage secretly again.

Lin Zhanyu quickly made up his mind: he would leave the rare stable life in Wuji restaurant to his senior brother and nephew, maybe in the near future, senior brother Wei will marry another woman as his wife, and they will have a good life .

As for himself.Thinking of this, Lin Zhanyu's hands froze for a moment when he packed his things: he hasn't decided where to go, but he won't stay here anyway.

He was afraid of disturbing the other guys sleeping in the back yard, so he wanted to take a long way to go through the front door, but when he tiptoed to the front hall, he found a person sitting inside.

Wei Qingyun was waiting for him.

Lin Zhanyu was taken aback.Although it was late at night and it was pitch black inside and outside the house, his eyes had already adapted to the darkness, and he could see the near and far situations very clearly.

He clearly saw that Brother Wei was neatly dressed, he didn't seem to be disturbed by him, more like he was sitting here all the time, as if he had expected him to leave secretly.

And this is almost exactly the same as when he wanted to escape from Qiao's house a few years ago.

Lin Zhanyu thought desperately: As expected of the senior brother who has known me for eight years, no one knows me better than him.
