Chapter 58

Although it was forced to be a Chinese language teacher in this chapel, Xu Qichen liked this place. Maybe this career brought him a sense of security to return to the comfort zone. I don't know why. He seems to have a natural constitution to attract children. The most important teacher for children here is Xu Qichen.

It's easy to teach them how to write and study everyday. The only thing he worries about is his life experience. He knows that this time bomb will explode sooner or later, but he can't see the countdown. That's what scares him most.

"Don't you get in touch with your young master recently?"

Squatting on the ground, Xu Qichen raised his head and looked at Lin Nianzhi.

"He's been very busy these days. I don't think he cares about me."

Lin Nianzhi also squatted down and patted a little girl who was leaning against Xu Qichen and was writing on the mud with a branch. "Yunniu, it's cold outside. You go to the room and write. Aunt Zhang brought you brown sugar pancakes."

The little girl patted her ass happily and ran back to the house.

Xu Qichen frowned and his eyes were keen. "Is something wrong with song yuanyan?"

Lin Nianzhi said, "I also heard that song yuanyan had a serious illness. He had a high fever for several days and lay in the hospital for several days."

The hand holding the branch on the ground and holding the poem in silence pauses. After a while, he says, "are you discharged now?"

"You are frightfully calm." Lin Nianzhi looked sideways and said, "isn't song yuanyan your lover?"

"So I know him better than any of you." Xu Qichen threw away the branch in his hand, patted the dust on his sweater, and turned away.

Leave Lin Nianzhi sitting in the same place.

Strange, isn't this man always gentle and polite?

It feels like he's angry.

Lin Nianzhi couldn't figure it out and was too lazy to think about it. After a foreign language class, he had to go back to the reception. Before he left, he asked Xu Qichen, "do you want to take a leave?"

Xu Qichen patronized the children to see the exercises, did not lift his head, "leave to do what?"

Lin Nianzhi glared at him, "see a doctor, don't you go?"

Xu Qichen bent over and carefully drew circles in his writing. "These are all other words. I'll change them later. Do you remember them?" After the explanation, he looked at Lin Nianzhi and said, "I won't go."

"It's strange. I'm half a headmaster, and I beg the teacher to ask for leave." Lin Nianzhi's young lady temper came out again, "love to go or not, anyway, it's not the person I like, what do I do with this heart."

Xu Qichen took a look at her and said in a very calm tone, "the person you like may also go to the reception. Hurry back and dress up."

When he said that, Lin Nianzhi's face turned red, and his speech began to be unskillful. "What, I don't have anyone I like."

Xu Qichen said that in modern society, your character is called haughty.

Lin Nianzhi, who was stimulated by him, left without turning back. Xu Qichen continued to finish the class. When he came out, he found that he was the only teacher left in the whole school.

Are you all busy today?

It was strange that the elder sister who was in charge of cooking and watching the children also changed her clothes and came out, smiling at him and saying, "is Mr. Sun not going to be reunited with his family today?"

"Reunion?" Xu Qichen looked puzzled. The elder sister said with a laugh, "Mr. Sun must be confused about reading. Today is Laba. I have cooked a lot of Laba porridge in the kitchen. The children have a bowl of Laba porridge for each person. Mr. Sun can eat some and then go home."

Xu Qichen said with a smile, "thank you very much. I'll eat it later. "

I'm used to living a modern life. When I came to the Republic of China, I had to live according to the lunar calendar. For a while, I was really not used to it. I didn't expect that today is Laba Festival. Unfortunately, Sun Lin, who has a complicated life experience, is homeless to some extent during the Spring Festival.

Long lost 0901 suddenly went online, "Hello, Mr. Xu."

Xu Qichen replied in his heart, "long time no see."

0901: "I have been testing recently, so I have no time to communicate with you emotionally."

Xu Qichen: "it's very good. I'm not really looking forward to this kind of exchange."

The tone of 0901 was still the same, "Mr. Xu, I've been wondering why most of the protagonists in your novels don't have a complete and warm family background? Some don't even mention the family. "

It was so cold outside that Xu Qichen went back to the church, closed the door and opened a Bible on the table.

"Mr. Xu, are you refusing to answer my question?"

Xu Qichen then said, "I'm curious about other people. I think this hobby is the patent of human beings."

0901 pause, "well, I'm sorry, Mr. Xu."

Xu Qichen looked down at the Bible. It didn't seem to have any effect, but the black box with memories in his heart had been knocked over long ago, and the dusty memories in it reappeared.He doesn't like festivals, especially all kinds of traditional festivals boasting the warm words of family reunion.

The thoughts of low tide emotion are wandering among the dense handwriting in this old bible. The colorful stained glass in front of us turns into an ordinary family window. Time turns back to the winter vacation of the first semester of senior high school.

He is also like now, a person sitting in the window reading a book, the living room TV broadcast no one to watch the Spring Festival Gala, noisy, as if someone is really celebrating the reunion festival.

As it was getting dark, he thought whether he should cook some quick-frozen dumplings. As soon as he came out of the bedroom, he remembered that my aunt would be late to get off work, so he decided to wait until she came back.

Back in the empty room, the mobile phone rang without warning. Looking at the beating name above, Xu Qichen's heart was paralyzed for a moment. For a moment, he could only stare at it and didn't get through.

When the ring suddenly stopped, he realized that he had missed the call. Holding his cell phone, he was worried about whether to dial it back, but he was afraid that the other party had just made a mistake while sliding the phone book.

What do you want to say?

Happy new year.

You too. Happy new year.

That's it. Let's not say this kind of uncomfortable polite words. Xu Qichen put his mobile phone back on the table, and his eyes returned to the page. The words were still those words, but he couldn't understand them.

He was startled by the ringing of the bell again.

Hesitated to pick up the phone again, is still the name just now.

Twice, it's not the wrong number.

Clench your teeth and get through.

"Hello..."

There was a lot of noise on the other end of the phone, and the sound of car horns, which was quite different from his lifelessness here.

"Xu Qichen? Are you at home? "

His voice is so loud that Xu Qichen's ears itch, "I'm here."

"Then what..." The other party coughed a few times, "I'm downstairs in your house."

"What?" So surprised that he blurted out, "you, how do you..."

"I didn't lie to you. Is there anyone in your family? Can you come down? "

His voice is very clear, through the background of fuzzy noise, melting in the current to the ear. Xu Qichen didn't know why. His heart was beating faster and faster, but it was very difficult to open his mouth.

"No? Do you have a guest? "

"No..." The Adam's Apple moved unnaturally. "There's no one in my family. Wait a minute. I'll put on a coat and go down."

He hung up the phone in a hurry, ran to the living room in cotton slippers, took a long white down jacket hanging on the hanger of the porch and put it on him. He looked in the mirror before opening the door.

It's like a cylindrical New Year cake.

It's really too cold. As Xu Qichen went downstairs, he buttoned the hat behind his down jacket on his head and zipped it to the top. I don't know why, but he was always hesitating.

It's not a prank, is it?

Why didn't you ask him just now? Why did you come here?

If it's really a prank, I can only blame myself for being too stupid.

This thought, more and more do not hold expectations, did not expect just out of the stairs, really see a tall and thin figure, wearing a red down jacket, standing in the middle of a pile of fireworks children, looks like a new year's atmosphere.

With his back to himself, Xu Qichen walked over and coughed gently.

"You're down." He turned around, holding a hot lunch box in his hand. "I've got dumplings for you."

Xu Qichen was puzzled and looked at him.

The other side's hand tugged at the wool cap on his head, "didn't you give me your lunch last time? I want to pay you back No, I can't say that Even if I want to give you food from our family, it's not right... " The more he said, the more unclear he became. "I'm really poor at expression. Anyway, you can take it. Although I know your family should have it, but Anyway, you'd better try it. "

Xu Qichen holding the lunch box, cold palm a little bit to absorb the heat, there is a kind of inexplicable joy. He looked at the people in front of him who couldn't leave, and finally said the first sentence: "has your family had new year's Eve dinner?"

"Yes." He always seems to feel that his wool cap is not right, so he just pulled it off and rubbed his hair. "It's more than five o'clock. There are so many people. All the big aunts and aunts are here. I don't know many relatives. Now I'm playing cards at home. I have no place to stay."

The ending of the last sentence has a sense of grievance. Xu Qichen lowered his head and didn't know what to say. He could only say thank you in a low voice.

"It's OK, there's no guarantee of taste You must finish it He held the wool hat tightly in his hand, "then I..."

"I went home." /"Will you go up and sit down?"

Two words sounded at the same time, the sound is fuzzy, like a new year cake like stick together, but the other party quickly grasped the point, the black pupil lit up, like a small match in the middle of the night."Really?" His expression converged a little, looking at the side of a happy child, not naturally rubbing his hand, "I'm so cold."

"Well." Xu Qichen turned around, holding the lunch box, and walked up the steps step by step. The step is like hanging syrup, every step becomes extremely difficult.

Want to go back, but can not pick up the courage.

In this way, I slowly finished the three floors I had to walk every day.

Feeling the key in his pocket, Xu Qichen opened the door and bent down to take his own slippers for him. "You can wear my slippers. My family has only two pairs of slippers. You can't wear my aunt's slippers."

"And you?"

Xu Qichen did not speak, took a pair of thick furry floor socks on his feet, "this is OK."

"Your house is as good as I thought."

Xu Qichen took off his coat and raised the temperature of the air conditioner a few degrees, "right?"

"Well, like your people, it's quiet and comfortable." Then he explained, "I mean it's comfortable to get along with."

Xu Qichen still did not speak, silently poured a cup of hot water for him.

Two people sitting on the sofa, looking at the Spring Festival Gala year after year, opened the small thermal lunch box.

Xu Qichen looked at the dumplings inside, each of which was in a strange shape. He could hardly find a beautiful one, which was rare enough.

"Who cooks in your family?"

"My mother?"

"Is cooking good?"

"Of course." The other side was very proud and showed two little tiger teeth.

Xu Qichen lowered his head and looked at the dumplings.

Then this should not be your mother's bag.

He had a bad appetite, but now he unexpectedly wanted to eat dumplings, so he took chopsticks and gave him a pair by the way.

The other party is furtive. Before each clip, he has to gently poke it, just like the watermelon seller. He always takes a pat to think it's a good melon. Xu Qichen thinks he's very strange, but he doesn't say much. He eats it silently.

Although it doesn't look good, it tastes good.

The other party ate very fast, one mouthful at a time, but did not chew it carefully. In the twinkling of an eye, there was only one left in the box. He pushed the box in front of Xu Qichen and motioned for him to eat this one.

Xu Qichen looked at him and said in a low voice, "I can't eat any more..."

He tried to swallow the dumplings in his mouth, frowning and frowning, "no, there's only one left How bad. "

Xu Qichen sighed, picked up the bulging white dumpling and bit it.

A bang.

It hurts.

He vomited the dumplings in the box and poked them with chopsticks.

This is A hard candy?

A face surprised to look at the side of the feeder, the other side of the smile than just see the sketch even happy.

"Congratulations! You are too lucky to eat the only sweet heart auspicious dumpling in our family His deep eyes turned into a new moon. "You will be very lucky in the coming year."

What

The strange smell of this lucky dumpling still lingers in his mouth. Xu Qichen stares at the hard candy that hasn't completely melted away.

What brand of sugar is this.

It's so sweet. It's sweet and sour.

Hearing the sound of a car outside, Xu Qichen stood up and pushed the door open with his Bible in his hand. As he expected, a man came down from the black car, wearing a dark green coat. When he saw Xu Qichen, he laughed from a distance.

How can I feel like talking about Cao Cao.

It's not the same person. Xu Qichen stepped back and wanted to close the door.

"Ah Song yuanyan ran over in a hurry and grabbed the door. His fingers almost got stuck. "How can you hide when you see me?"

Xu Qichen seemed angry and broke his fingers. Song Yuan was very flattering, forced to squeeze in, "what's the matter, because I didn't come to see you?"

Xu Qichen still did not speak. Seeing that he squeezed in, he went out with the book in his arms.

Song yuanyan followed him closely, and said, "how are you doing here? I can't see you're thinner. Did you eat Laba porridge? "

Xu Qichen quietly went to his residence, opened the door, just want to shut him outside, but was still the cunning guy to exploit the loophole, smoothly squeezed in.

"Don't be angry. Whose body is it when you are angry?"

On hearing this, Xu Qichen turned around and looked at him coldly, staring at Song yuanyan hairy. He finally said, "young master came out of the hospital and went home to change his clothes?"

Song yuanyan was stunned. He looked down at his shirt, tie and overcoat. He touched the tip of his nose and asked, "how do you know?"

Xu Qichen took a match from the table and set the charcoal basin on fire, "a smell of disinfectant."Song yuanyan then understood why Xu Qichen was angry. He cleared his hoarse voice and sat down on Xu Qichen's bed. "I told them clearly, no one is allowed to tell, I can't tell you..."

Xu Qichen stood up and grabbed song yuanyan's collar, "then you don't have to come out. Even if you die outside, you don't have to ask someone to tell me, so I don't have to go to worship. "

In a daze, song yuanyan grabs Xu Qichen's arm, takes him into his arms and hugs him tightly. "I didn't mean to hide it from you, I just don't want you to worry..."

After struggling for a while, Xu Qichen suddenly felt his body temperature was too high. He lifted his drooping forehead, lowered his head, and put his forehead on his chest.

It's hot.

Angry. Sorry. It hurts. Resentment. All the emotions were crumpled together and stuffed into the chest. They couldn't get up or down, which made people more angry.

"What are you going to do when you cook like this?" Xu Qichen wants to earn money from his arms, but he is tied more tightly. This time, song yuanyan's forehead comes up on his own initiative, and his high nose gently rubs against Xu Qichen's cool tip, like a pet who has lost love.

"I miss you so much. I think if I get sick, I can come back to you."

His voice became hoarse due to high fever, like a piece of rough sandpaper, which made Xu Qichen itch and hurt.

Song yuanyan raised Xu Qichen's hand and put it on his face, "don't be angry. I won't do it next time."

Xu Qichen mentioned tone, want to get angry and pressure down, "next time you make yourself sick, I will never see you again."

After holding it for a long time, what you say has no deterrent effect.

Obviously, I'm not in good health, and I deliberately get sick.

If you don't care for yourself, just die, and you don't have to do the task.

As soon as this idea came out of the small dark room in his heart, Xu Qichen turned back, especially looking at his face.

Maybe it's because I'm near the church and I feel a little more awed by this kind of inner monologue.

Come on, take that back, and you don't have to die.

You can't die. Let him be sick all the time, how also not good.

If he is ill all the time, doesn't he have to take care of him all the time?

Forget it, take it back

Don't make him sick.

I'm really a troublesome prayer.

"What are you thinking?" Song yuanyan seems to see Xu Qichen's distraction, pinched his chin tip, "so absorbed."

Xu Qichen clapped his hand, "nothing. Tell me honestly. How did you get sick? "

Song Yuan said with a smile, revealing two small tiger teeth, "that's I took a few more cold baths or something... "

Xu Qichen grabbed song yuanyan's neck with his hand and used a little bit of force, "is it still like this in the future?"

Song yuanyan immediately shook his head, "no, sir."

The sudden address surprised Xu Qichen. What? It's like role playing.

He let go of his hand. No, what I have been doing is role playing? Why do you feel embarrassed.

Just thinking about it, he was suddenly given a kiss, and the troublemaker was still smiling, "my husband is distracted again."

Xu Qichen pushed him away, went to the table and sat down. He opened the Bible he had not finished reading just now and asked softly, "have you taken the medicine?"

"I came after eating."

The desk is next to the bed. Song yuanyan sits beside the bed and moves to the side of Xu Qichen. He lies on the table and looks at Xu Qichen. "My mother is afraid that I will be ill again. Let me take you back this time."

"I'm not going back."

Song yuanyan grabbed Xu Qichen's wrist and said, "that's not good. You have to go back with me. I've spent so much effort. You "Cough, cough," he said, covering his mouth and coughing.

Xu Qichen reached over and patted him on the back, "you can stop for a while, little ancestor."

Song yuanyan slightly choked his cough, holding Xu Qichen's hand firmly You can't stay here anyway. You have to go back with me. " He sighed with a long sigh, "you will be my only husband in the future."

As soon as he was not careful, he pulled him into his arms. Song yuanyan bowed his head and kissed his lips. At the moment when the two softness met, there was an unspeakable comfort and palpitation that broke through the shackles.

His hand held the back of Xu Qichen's head, slightly stroking his hair roots, so that Xu Qichen could not leave. Long time no kiss, let two people's hearts are burning a fire, hot and hot.

He felt that the tip of his tongue was against his teeth, and his sense of survival made Xu Qichen free from his arms, as if he had infected him. His face was hot, his mouth was dry, his whole body was weak, and all kinds of unspeakable symptoms spread.

"Can't..." Xu Qichen's chest slightly undulating, "can't be here."Song yuanyan's face showed a smile, put his arms around his waist, "Sir, why not?"

Xu Qichen propped up the table, pretending to be serious, "you call me Mr. I always want to teach you etiquette, righteousness and shame."

Song Yuan said with a smile, "Oh? Sir, let's talk about it. What is etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame? "

Xu Qichen stood up straight, but his voice was not strong enough. "A gentleman should restrain himself and get rid of his selfish desire."

Song yuanyan nodded thoughtfully, but his action didn't stop at all. He stood up and put his arms around him, lowered his head, and licked his neck from under his ears. "Continue, sir."

Xu Qichen pushed song yuanyan, "Hello! I can't do it here without joking with you! "

Song yuanyan was a rogue, "why not? Who said not?"

Xu Qichen's hand on the table slipped, just in time to meet the old bible. He grabbed it and patted song yuanyan on the chest, "God."

Song yuanyan picked his eyebrows.

"Leviticus 20:13: if a man lies with a man, the two of them commit abominations, and they are to be put to death, and the blame is on them." Xu Qichen's chin turned outward and his head was raised. The top of the church's sharp point could be seen from the window.

Song yuanyan took the Bible and put it on the table, "good memory." After that, he took off his coat, threw it on the table and forced Xu Qichen to turn over on the bed. He put one hand on the side of his face, pulled open his tie with the other hand, and bowed his head to smile.

"Well Mr. Guowen, who is self-restraint and self reliant... "

There is a morbid husky voice in his always low voice. Through the thin air, you can almost feel his hot degree.

"Do you want to commit a crime with me?"
