Growth pain

one year later.

Zhang Lei is getting married.

This news was not sudden at all. He had discussed this matter with Lu Shining a few months ago, and made almost all the preparations for the wedding date, who needed to be invited, etc., so he said on WeChat: Comrades!I'm getting married!

What used to be a small group of three has now become six.

Zhang Lei's girlfriend sent a flowery emoji and said: [Cooperate with my big fool]

Xu Jia replied: [Congratulations! 】

Then Shao Qing: [Congratulations! 】

Yuan Sen didn't even look at the copy, Lu Shining complained from the side: "You are too perfunctory." He also copied one.

Everyone is already familiar with each other, and there is no such polite talk.The wedding was set at Zhang Lei's hometown, Lu Shining booked a plane ticket early, and discussed with Yuan Sen about the accompanying ceremony.Yuan Sen laughed at him: "It's not that you are getting married, what are you so excited about?"

Lu Shining stared: "This is my first time attending a friend's wedding, are you happy?"

Yuan Sen nodded, "I didn't say no, you're throwing a tantrum at me again."

Lu Shining was innocent: "I didn't, I'm telling the truth."

Yuan Sen stretched out his arms to hug him, and the two hugged each other, kissing each other after watching.

May is a good month, Zhang Lei's wedding is scheduled at this time, the weather is neither cold nor hot.

Yuan Sen and Lu Shining discussed to go there a few days earlier, and have fun by the way. The tourism industry in Zhang Lei's hometown is very developed, so Lu Shining and the company took four days of annual leave.The day before his departure, Yuan Sen received a call from Yang Qiongfang, saying that Yuan Zhen was dying.

Yuan Sen turned on the hands-free phone, and there was the sound of mahjong colliding over there. Yang Qiongfang played a second cake and said casually, "Do you want to take a look?"

Yuan Sen asked, "What am I going to do?"

"He is your father, who will the property go to after he dies?" Yang Qiongfang said, "What you don't want is what people want!"

Yuan Sen kept his face sullen the whole time.

Yang Qiongfang said: "Let's go and have a look, I guess I won't live long."

"No, I'm going to attend the wedding in two days."

"Wedding? Whose wedding?"

Yuan Sen deliberately said: "Xiaolu's friend is getting married."

The phone was silent for a few seconds, and finally said: "You have to go for me."

##

Although Yang Qiongfang and her new partner did not receive a certificate, they lived a very comfortable life.Yuan Sen went to meet that person during Chinese New Year, he was really an honest person, I heard that he used to teach, but now he is retired, he is hunchbacked, tall and thin, wears glasses, he entertains Yuan Sen the way he entertains guests, he takes melon seeds and It was displaying fruit, and a restrained smile appeared on his face from time to time.

It's a pity that Yuan Sen quarreled with Yang Qiongfang when he didn't stay at home until the first day of the new year.

It was because of talking about friends that Yang Qiongfang died of anxiety and shouted: "You will be 28 after the new year! What do you think, don't you get married for the rest of your life?!"

Yuan Sen replied: "Yes."

Yang Qiongfang stared at him desperately, "You deliberately don't let me live!"

Yuan Sen looked at her silently, without saying a word.

The good old man advised, "Don't be angry, don't be angry."

Yuan Sen got up and left, Yang Qiongfang shouted from behind: "Stop!"

Yuan Sen stopped.

Yang Qiongfang came up and punched him twice, with tears in her eyes, she was held back by the honest man, "Don't hit the child."

Yuan Sen looked at the man, waved his hand to indicate that there was nothing wrong, and was punched twice by his mother.

In the end, Yuan Sen left. He had no choice but to stay. He had to go on a blind date or be scolded. Yang Qiongfang looked at him with hatred, as if he was responsible for all the misfortunes.Yuan Sen estimated that if he stayed there, the three of them would not be able to survive this year.

It was night when he came out, and he called Lu Shining to say that he had gone home first, and Lu Shining said, "Are you going back now? There is nothing at home."

Yuan Sen said, "Hmm..."

Father Lu's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yuan Sen."

Yuan Sen said, "Uncle Lu, Happy New Year."

"Happy Chinese New Year, come here and help your aunt make dumplings, Ning Ning is clumsy and clumsy and can't do anything well."

There was Lu Shining's protest from the other end of the phone. He obviously made dumplings well, all of them were chubby, but he also hoped that Yuan Sen would come to show off that he knew how to make dumplings.

So Yuan Sen drove over and entered Lu's house against the cold wind at night, and his face was covered in heat as soon as he entered the door.

Lu Shining specially left a dumpling uncooked and showed it to Yuan Sen.

Lu's mother humiliated him in the kitchen, "How old you are and still acting like a baby is useless!"

Lu Shining's face and ears turned red when he was told, but he still stubbornly asked Yuan Sen for credit.

Yuan Sen wanted to hug him and kiss him, but since there was Uncle Lu beside him, he held back, and restrainedly raised his hand to rub Lu Shining's hair, "Not bad."

Lu Shining laughed.

The next day Lu Shining received a call from Yang Qiongfang. He first said Happy New Year, and then asked, "Do you know where Yuan Sen is? No one answered the call."

Yuan Sen was eating the dumplings cooked yesterday, and his phone was charging in the next room. Seeing Lu Shining looking over, he asked, "Who?"

Lu Shining pursed his lower lip, and the other end of the phone was also silent. After a while, Yang Qiongfang said, "He's with you, can you let him answer the phone?"

"Okay." Lu Shining handed over the phone, and Yuan Sen knew who it was.

After chatting for two or three sentences, Yang Qiongfang asked him to meet someone after the fifth day of the lunar new year. He didn't even think about it, it must be a blind date, he was too persistent, and his tone was aggressive.Yuan Sen hung up the phone with a cold face.

Lu Shining looked at him.

Yuan Sen's expression softened, there were only the two of them at the dinner table, he went to hold Lu Shining's hand, showing a grievance.

Lu Shining didn't say anything, just patted his head.

Yuan Sen resisted this matter. From college to now, Yang Qiongfang has never stopped thinking about blind dates for him. He was very tired of this matter when he had no partner, let alone being with Lu Shining now.

##

As long as you can't find Yuan Sen, call Lu Shining and you will be able to find him.At first, Yang Qiongfang contacted Lu Shining frequently, but then they gradually decreased. In the end, even if she couldn't contact Yuan Sen, she would not call Lu Shining.

Yang Qiongfang probably guessed something, but neither of them revealed it.

Now Yuan Zhen was heaving a sigh of relief, and she insisted that Yuan Sen go to see him.

Yuan Sen agreed.

Naturally, there was no way to complete the travel. Lu Shining didn't plan to follow him when he went to the hospital, but Yuan Sen asked him, "Will you go with me?"

He used the word "accompany", and Lu Shining got up without saying a word.

The two arrived at the hospital. Yuan Zhen's ward was on a high floor, a comfortable and spacious single room, and there were people guarding the door.

Yuan Sen pushed the door open and went in, Lu Shining followed behind, the familiar smell of disinfectant from the ward came over his face.

Yuan Zhen was lying on the bed. The originally tall man was so thin that there was only a layer of skin left, with white flakes still floating on the skin, his head was bald, his face and body were freckled by old people, and his body was full of unclean dirt. Sickness.

Yuan Sen stood at the end of the bed, "She asked me to come and see you."

Yuan Zhen saw Lu Shining standing behind Yuan Sen, took a deep look and turned his head.

He didn't speak, and neither did Yuan Sen.

After a while, Yuan Zhen's weak voice resounded in the empty ward: "You go, what should be given to you will not miss you."

Yuan Sen didn't defend himself, turned around and left.

Lu Shining was still standing where he was, and Yuan Sen grabbed his wrist before slowly walking away.

After leaving the ward, the breathless atmosphere still haunted him.

On the way, Yuansen looked out of the car window without saying a word, while Lu Shining was also very quiet, and fell asleep leaning on his shoulder after a while.

When the two arrived home, Yuan Sen kissed his forehead and said, "He knows why I went today."

Lu Shining looked up at him, Yuan Sen's expression was a little indifferent, "My mother won't let him die like this, she knows that I won't give him a good face in the past, she wants him to remember until he dies."

Lu Shining leaned over to kiss Yuan Sen's lips, Yuan Sen smiled slightly, "This is the last time."

He is used as a tool to hurt others, the hatred is his, the revenge is his, and the entanglement also has his share.He seemed to have been born to fill this never-ending resentment.No one in this family loves him, he was born wrongly.

Lu Shining hugged him lightly and didn't say anything, but Yuan Sen knew what he was thinking.

How rare to like the same person at the age of 16 and 26.

——"It's okay, I will love you."

This time, Yuan Sen responded with a kiss.

##

On the day of the wedding, Zhang Lei dressed handsomely as the groom's official, and when he saw Lu Shining and Yuan Sen, he said, "There's a reason why I didn't ask you two to be the best man!"

Yuan Sen said casually: "I know, I can't find someone more handsome than you."

Zhang Leikuang nodded, "Yes, yes!"

Lu Shining covered his mouth and wanted to laugh, turned around and saw Shao Qing and Xu Jia, and raised his hand to say hello.

Shao Qing immediately waved his arms: "Hello!"

After a long time of tossing and tossing, I finally received the bride. The girl was very beautiful in the wedding dress. During the toast, I saw Shao Qing and Xu Jia's eyes shining. Although it was not the first time they met, they still said, "I like beautiful women too."

Zhang Lei was extremely vigilant, causing several people to laugh.

The whole wedding went to the stage where the master of ceremonies asked the two to exchange rings and swear words.

Yuan Sen poked Lu Shining in the audience, and just as Lu Shining turned around, Yuan Sen leaned into his ear and whispered, "I love you."

Lu Shining: "..."

Yuan Sen looked at him with a smile, "Xiao Lu, shouldn't you tell me something?"

Shao Qing booed from the side, "Hey, why are you two still dating someone else's wedding? If you want to show love, you can organize one yourself."

After the wedding, many people were drunk. Yuan Sen helped Zhang Lei hold back a lot of alcohol. Zhang Lei hugged his thigh after drinking too much: "Brother Wuwu! You are my real brother!"

Shao Qing laughed so hard that her stomach hurt and she fell on Xu Jia.

Lu Shining was also laughing, and waved his hands to Yuan Sen to signal: "I can't save you, this may be the retribution you gave him so many times before."

After late at night, the two of them lay together, Yuan Sen drank a lot of wine, his head was heavy, and he was about to fall asleep.

Lu Shining suddenly said: "I love you too, I like you the most."

Then he was pulled into Yuan Sen's arms, rubbed his chin against his shoulder, and fell asleep together.

##

After the wedding, the two returned to Chuanyang, and the weather suddenly became hot.

Yang Qiongfang called Yuan Sen many times and asked him to go back, not to mention it was because of Yuan Zhen.

Yuan Sen finally had time to attend the appointment this time.

That day Lu Shining was still on vacation, and when he heard that Yuan Sen was going to see Yang Qiongfang, he put the pillow under his body and lay on the bed to watch him wash and get dressed.

"Want to go with me?" Yuan Sen asked him.

Lu Shining hurriedly shook his head.

He didn't think it was a good idea to tell Yang Qiongfang about the relationship between the two of them. After all, Yuan Sen was stuck with him all day long, and he was already not shy about his mother. What if he really got angry after confessing.

After Yuan Sen left, he slowly got up and went to wash and change his clothes.

Yuan Sen drove to a nearby large supermarket to buy some gifts, and entered the community with big bags and small bags. The honest man opened the door.

"Why did you bring something?" The honest man took the gift, "Go in quickly, your mother is waiting for you inside."

Yuan Sen nodded slightly.

Candide was a little afraid of him, he knew it, but he didn't care.This person lives with his mother, not with him, so it doesn't matter what he thinks.

Entering the living room, she saw Yang Qiongfang leaning on the sofa and hugging a white-haired dog, and seeing Yuan Sen, she hugged the dog in her arms and shook.

Yuan Sen said, "Do you have a dog?"

"Your uncle's niece brought it here." Yang Qiongfang put the dog on the ground and said, "Go and play by yourself."

In the past, she clearly disliked this stuff the most. She disliked the little local dog of Yuan's family, and she did not allow Yuan Sen to feed him ham sausage, saying it was a waste of food.

Perhaps the mentality of aging will also change.Before Yuan Sen could sit down, Yang Qiongfang asked, "How is your father?"

Yuan Sen said calmly, "Still panting."

Yang Qiongfang frowned, and raised her voice: "Did you talk to me like that?"

"Then what else to say?"

"Didn't he say anything to you?"

"What? We have nothing to say."

The atmosphere was a bit stiff, Yang Qiongfang exhaled, "I can't control you."

The little white dog suddenly came up to Yuan Sen and sniffed it. When he smelled a strange smell, he barked twice.

Yang Qiongfang immediately called the dog back, "Then when are you going to meet her girl? It's just your uncle's niece, I met her, it's very good."

Yang Qiongfang did her best to introduce her target's relatives to Yuan Sen.

Yuan Sen was expressionless: "I don't remember that I promised to meet."

Yang Qiongfang said: "I promise for you."

"No." After Yuan Sen finished speaking, his eyes fell on the little white dog squatting at Yang Qiongfang's feet, "You let it go."

Yang Qiongfang showed faint signs of anger, "Yuan Sen, what do you mean?"

"That's what it means, I think you treat it much better than me." Yuan Sen stood up, "I'm going to answer if there's nothing else."

"Where are you going back? You're not going back home, where else do you want to go back?!" Yang Qiongfang stared at him, pressing her hands on her knees and almost pinching her thighs.

Yuan Sen couldn't figure out how resentful that look was. Yang Qiongfang looked at him like this a long time ago, and it is still the same now. It never changed.

Her hatred is not unreasonable, and Yuan Sen can understand it, but she just doesn't want to waste it like this.

"I live with Lu Shining." Yuan Sen looked at her, "You know it."

Yang Qiongfang stood on the spot for a long time, then began to exhale and inhale, looking at him with the same look, hating him, "Yuan Sen, you have to be a beast like that dying one." ?!"

Yuan Sen thought for a while and said, "Shouldn't you be unhappy? The old Yuan family is dead."

Yang Qiongfang was so angry that she could only "you, you".

The honest man leaned against the door frame and looked at the mother and the son, not daring to go forward.

Yuan Sen glanced at him, walked out of the house, pressed his shoulders and saw him trembling.

"Take good care of my mother." Yuan Sen said.

Yang Qiongfang regained her strength, and shouted behind him: "Okay, I won't learn that disgusting thing from you, Yuan Sen, are you worthy of me?"

Yuan Sen turned around peacefully and said, "I'm sorry."

Yang Qiongfang was speechless instead, and after a while she said: "If you get sick, I'll send you to be treated!"

Yuan Sen looked at her, Yang Qiongfang was much older than before, but the worry on his brows was also much less.

Her pain and sorrow started from the moment Yuan Sen was born, but neither joy nor joy was given by him.

Yang Qiongfang called him hysterically, and said all the nasty things out of her mouth, and finally she said: "If it doesn't get better, don't come back!"

Perhaps this is the best result between them.

Yuan Sen once expected her love very much, and had many rebellious actions for this.

In the emerald summer, when creepers hung all over the wall, she left him and ran away, but when she came back she lied that she wanted to love him.Yuan Sen cooperated with her and pretended to believe it.

From that moment on, life was covered with slender and fragile vines, and every piece of it was torn off was accompanied by pain, and those exposed wounds could not be ignored just because it grew so fast, Lu Shining was the only one who would water him and bask in the sun.

Yuan Sen came out of the community and saw Lu Shining squatting on the side of the road teasing a dirty stray dog, his eyes lit up immediately.

Lu Shining said: "Come and help me look after it, I want to buy something to feed it."

It's rare to come across a stray dog ​​who isn't afraid of him.

Yuan Sen walked over and asked, "Why are you here? Are you worried about me?"

Lu Shining blinked and said an obvious lie: "Passing by."

Yuan Mori repeated with a long voice: "Oh—passing by."

He walked over to look at the dirty stray dog, and after looking it over, he said, "It's not bad, it's more welcome than the one upstairs."

Lu Shining couldn't understand what he was saying at all.

Yuansen said again: "You wait here, I'll go buy it, it doesn't know me, what should I do if it runs away?"

Lu Shining knelt down and stroked the puppy's fairly clean hair in a friendly manner.

"Want to raise?" Yuan Sen asked.

Lu Shining looked up at him with hesitation.

Yuan Sen raised his eyebrows: "What are you looking at me for? I'm not going to be jealous of a dog. If I want to keep it, I can pick it up and raise it."

That being said, if you really pick it up, you don't know what it looks like.

It must be flying like a dog jumping.

Lu Shining said: "Let me think about it, you go to buy water first, it is thirsty, and keeps sticking out its tongue."

Yuan Sen nodded: "Okay, okay, ancestor, I will listen to you."

The annoyance of being scolded by Yang Qiongfang completely dissipated at this moment. He planned to go back and talk to Lu Shining again, but he could already think of his worried expression and staring eyes.

Yuan Sen was in an unprecedentedly relaxed mood. He crossed the road with a smile on his face, and when he came back, it had turned into a red light.

He was waiting on the opposite side, and saw Lu Shining stand up and shouted at him: "I've decided! Let's raise it!"

Yuan Sen laughed and said loudly, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

At the turn of spring and summer, there is life everywhere. The warm wind blows the emerald green leaves into a whirl, slides across the blue sky like a lake, floats down, floats down, and lands at Lu Shining's feet.

The green light came on and he walked towards him.

The author has something to say: Happy Lantern Festival!I wanted to say it was the first book I finished after changing my pseudonym, but it turned out not to be hahaha.
