Chapter 15

Zhuang Yan changed his wechat avatar.

The new head is a blue whale leaping out of the water. When you open it up, you can see that the blue whale is alive, and even the splashing water is amazing.

Zhuang Yan, who has a new head portrait, is very active in the group. Not only does he bubble up a lot, but also he no longer likes to mix and match when he is chatting with others.

The first two sentences are not suitable for others.

Not only in group chat, but also in private.

Everybody thinks he's been sick again recently.

Friend a: what's wrong with Zhuang Yan? A new head picture and a new brain?

Good friend B: he finally condescended and was willing to talk to me in private. As a result, he came to show a new portrait.

Friend C: I've seen people who show money, show children and show love. It's the first time I've seen a head portrait.

Friend D: but to tell you the truth, his new head is pretty good.

……

Qi Rui, as a young man, was the first to be harassed by him.

Zhuang Yan: yes?

Zhuang Yan: are you there?

Zhuang Yan: squeak before you die.

Qi Rui:?

Qi Rui: just finished the meeting. What's the matter?

Zhuang Yan: brother, how about my new head?

Qi Rui: good. Where did you steal the picture?

Zhuang Yan: get out of here. This is from someone else!

Qi Rui: what?

Zhuang Yan: I was painted by others! the one and only! You can't find it on the Internet!

Qi Rui: That's what you came to me for?

Zhuang Yan: people like you who don't have a picture of you don't understand my mood.

Qi Rui:???

Qi Rui: don't say it's a head portrait. I'll spread money and some people are willing to paint for me.

Vulgar: vulgar.

Zhuang Yan: there are some things you can't buy with money.

Qi Rui:

Qi Rui: I think, I haven't brought you black, which shows that I attach great importance to the friendship we grew up together.

Qi Rui must be jealous of him.

Zhuang Yan snorted, no longer harassing Qi Rui, turned to poke open another friend's private chat, and continued his career of showing his head portrait.

After a while, Zhuang Yan got upset again.

Xie Ning sent this blue whale to him. What would he give him in return?

Those two bottles of red wine?

Aunt Chen's grandson is almost out of hospital. Zhuang Yan has no excuse to go to Xie Ning's house to eat and drink.

Let Xie Ning cook all the time, he also felt bad about it.

He didn't wash his hands and make soup for Xie Ning. He wanted to invite him to come home for dinner at the weekend, and send out the two bottles of red wine by the way.

But Xie Ning refused.

Xie Ning is going back to the courtyard at the weekend to see Mr. Xie.

The courtyard is the place where Mr. Xie's generation provides for the elderly. Several families around him are retired celebrities. The environment is quiet. Sentries are arranged on both sides of the road, and security guards are on duty at each door.

Last night, it began to snow profusely. There was a thick layer of snow on the ground. Two footprints were left on the ground. However, many children were attracted to step on the snow.

Xie Ning asked Wu Shu to pick him up. As soon as he got to the door, another car came to a stop.

A couple got off the car. They were well maintained and looked like they were only in their early 40s.

Seeing Xie Ning, the woman's eyes lit up and said, "Ning Ning, you have just arrived."

Xie Ning looked at the bag she was carrying: "Mom." He nodded to the man next to him, "Dad."

Xie Jing is more stable than Xia Wan, but when he sees his son, he can't restrain his smile. He just says with a straight face: "I knew we should have come to pick you up. How can I trouble Xiao Wu to come here?"

Wu Shulian said in a hurry: "no trouble, no trouble. The old man urged me to pick up the young master. Otherwise, I would be scolded when I came back."

Xia Wan wanted to pull Xie Ning's hand, looked at Xie Ning's cold expression, and began to hesitate: "Ning Ning..."

Xie Ning answered.

Xia Wan immediately became happy: "you are thin again. I said that a person outside will not take good care of themselves, go home and I will stew some soup for you

"No, I live very well outside," said Xie Ning calmly

Xia Wan didn't know what to say. He stood aside and rubbed his hands involuntarily.

Xie Jing came out to play the round: "what does it look like to talk at the gate? Dad is in a hurry. It's snowing outside. Let's go first."

Xie Ning did not say a word, followed Xie Jing and Xia Wan into the door.

Today is a family dinner. There are no outsiders. Uncle Xie Zun and his family come early. When they arrive, uncle Zhong, the housekeeper, orders the kitchen to start serving.

Mr. Xie was in the main seat, so he pulled his grandson xie'an to the left in order not to discriminate between them.

It is also common sense for the old people to want their grandson to take over. Other people have no opinions and sit down one after another.The Xie family has a rule that they don't talk about business affairs at the dinner table, so they talk about trivial matters of life.

Naturally, the elders are most concerned about the marriage of their descendants. It seems that if they don't urge them to get married on New Year's day, it seems that they are sorry for the good time.

Fortunately, Xie Ning is young, and his cousin Xie an is holding it.

"Ann." Mr. Xie patted Xie an's hand and called him goose bumps. "Do you have a girlfriend?"

"I'm not in a hurry yet," Xie said

Xie frowned: "how can you not be in a hurry? You are too old to be young. If you are not in a hurry to get married, you should find a girlfriend and make a decision first. Your grandmother and I were married to me as soon as we graduated from college. Unfortunately, she left early, and she didn't see Ning Ning born. "

When he mentioned Xie Ning's grandmother, he was sad. Xie Zun and Xie Jing comforted him: "Dad..."

Xie Laozi waved his hand: "don't say these, I hope to see you and Ning Ning Ning get married and have a son."

Xie's family style is pure and open-minded. They don't regard the other half of their children as the object of marriage. Both sons are in free love. After the same-sex marriage is legal, Mr. Xie also accepted Xie Ning's unusual sexual orientation.

"Oh, yes, I'm confused. I'd rather like men. I'm afraid that the burden of having a son will be on your cousin's shoulder."

Xia Wan's expression was stiff for a moment, and he seemed reluctant to mention this topic.

Mr. Xie narrowed his eyes: "Ning Ning, I remember having a boyfriend. His name is Xu Xu or something? " He turned to look at Uncle Zhong.

Zhong Shuying said, "Xu Qing."

"Yes, Xu Qing." Xie Laozi nodded, "that boy of Xu family is right."

Xie Ning droops eyes: "we have already divided."

"Divided?" The room was full of people looking over.

Xie Ning nodded.

Xie was stunned for a moment and then said, "it's divided Just divide it up. The boy of the Xu family hears that he likes to make fun of outside, so he doesn't come along with you. "

Xia Wan then said: "divided well, divided well, you should have divided."

There was a smile on her face.

Xie an was afraid that Xie Laozi would urge him to get married again. He grabbed Xie Ning and asked curiously, "how do you divide it?"

Xie Ning did not want to say more, vague way: "not appropriate, on the points."

Xia Wan agreed and nodded: "well, I want to say that you should not be together in the beginning. Just in time, my mother will introduce some girls to you in two days, all of them are... "

Xie Laozi still just urged marriage, Xia Wan even arranged a blind date.

"Mom." "I like men," shenin interrupted

Xia Wan's face cooled down: "men and men can have any good results, nothing else, even a child can't have, you are just a moment confused."

Xie Ning has an easy-going temper. If someone else does something else, he will smile and won't argue with others.

Only in the matter of sexuality, he has always been hideously obstinate.

Xie Ning sneered and laughed: "this is born, can't change. No matter how much you say, I still like men. "

Xia Wan was anxious: "how can you, the child, refuse to listen to me?"

"Xia Wan!" Xie Jing yelled, and Xia Wan remembered that they couldn't make a scene in front of Mr. Xie at the family dinner.

Mr. Xie was calm and sighed.

"Aunt Xia, that's why you are not open-minded enough. Same sex marriage has been legal for many years. You can't look at these from the old perspective. Society is progressing and our thinking should also be improved."

Xia Wan moved his lips, in the end worried about the presence of Mr. Xie, and did not speak again.

Just as a new dish came up, Xie Zun got up and picked up a chopstick for Mr. Xie, and crossed the topic.

Mr. Xie is old and can't stand the trouble. After dinner, he asks uncle Zhong to go back to his room to have a rest.

Xie Ning was called to the balcony by Xie Jing.

"Your mother..." Xie Jing considered the sentence, "you don't blame her, this is her heart disease for many years."

Xie Ning lowered his head and could not see the expression on his face.

Xie Jing slowed down his voice: "we are just a son like you. When you were just born, your mother would not let go of you. Usually, even the nanny didn't use much, so she had to take care of you personally."

If you listen to these heart cutting words for the first time, Xie Ning may still be moved. However, after so many years, he repeatedly listens to Xie jingniandao, and his heart has no fluctuation.

"She and I have a common understanding that we don't want you to make great achievements, but we hope you can live a happy and stable life." Xie Jing went on.

Xie Ning side of the head looked at him, half smile: "is it?"

Xie Jing sighed: "I know you don't believe it, but she really loves you. Homosexuality is such a hard road that many heterosexual couples can't avoid getting divorced in the end. Same sex marriage has no children as lubricant. After years of discussion, how many people can get together well? Even if same-sex marriage is legalized, the society still has a different view on homosexuality. Take a look at Zhou How many of the people around are actually married to the same sex. ""I believe she loves me." "But I'd rather she didn't love me. "

Xie Jingmeng looked up: "you..."

"What does she want me to do?" she said sarcastically? Listen to her, don't like men, marry and have children with any woman, and live an unhappy life? "

Xie Jing frowned.

"I can't do it." "I can't be a normal person in her mind," she said

"Ning Ning..."

Xie Jing wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Xie Ning: "Dad, I'm tired of listening to you so many sentences every time you talk."

"I know you're in a dilemma between mom and me." He said, "but I can't give in."

"If she really can't accept it, let her..."

"As if I had not been born."

Xie Jing was shocked: "how can you say such a thing?"

Xie Ning looked at him faintly.

Xie Jing took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "take it back! Don't mention it again

Xie Ning turned his head to the white garden outside the balcony.

He was stubborn.

Xie Jing finally sighed and rubbed Xie Ning's hair.

From the moment the son came out firmly in front of us, he knew that they had gone farther and farther from the fork in the road.

Xie Jing left the balcony after a while. Xie Ning was staring at the trees rustling in the wind. The snow fell from the branches like catkins floating in the air.

He suddenly thought of a sentence: the injury from strangers is only skin injury, and the injury of close people is more penetrating and unforgettable.

He was not in a good mood until he was sent home by Wu Shu.

Along the way, he was silent and did not speak. Wu Shu saw that he looked stuffy and did not dare to disturb his meditation.

When getting off the bus, Xie Ning was suddenly stunned.

At the door of the villa, in front of the iron railings, there stands a rabbit made of snow. The rabbit is about one meter high. The hands made of branches are open, as if to welcome his return.

I've seen a snowman with snow, and I've seen a snow rabbit for the first time.

Next to the snow rabbit, Zhuang Yan wrapped in a scarf and put his hands in his pocket, smiling at him.

"Finally back, I can wait for this rabbit to melt." Zhuang Yan kicked the snow beside him impatiently.

The stars were shining in his eyes.

Zhuang Yan raised his eyebrows: "do you like it, Mr. rabbit?"

Xie Ning's heart beat twice.

The author has something to say: I found a little angel named Zhuang Yanzhuang. Suddenly, I found this nickname very cute!

Today is a village with a little sand sculpture!

Zhuang Zhuang: you see, this is the head portrait that Ning Ning Ning specially painted for me. You can't envy it!
