A bowl of sweet soup

So, who is this Ji Wei?

Ji Wei is Tang Xuen's good friend.

Tang Xuen never thought in his life that they could be misunderstood as a couple!

He blushed all of a sudden, and was about to refute. The breath he inhaled had just reached his throat, and before he spit it out, there was a "bang", the second child rushed in, and said in shock, "What? Brother Ji and Brother Ji are actually Is it a couple?! I have long felt that something is wrong between them!"

Depend on!

If it is said that Tang Xuen's sense of shame was just crackling and burning a few small flames that scratched people's hearts, then the second brother's words undoubtedly added a splash of oil.

Instantly, his face turned red.

He really wanted to beat the fool, and said angrily: "What are you talking about? You have the loudest voice!"

The second younger brother Tang Zheng quickly bowed his waist, covered his mouth, and said in a muffled and treacherous voice, "Yes, yes, yes, you can't speak so loudly, or the neighbors will hear you, my brother has a thin skin."

The third brother Tang Yuan still nodded in a daze: "Mmm, yes."

Tang Xuen was even more ashamed, he stood up abruptly, picked up the cattail fan on the table and hit his second brother on the head, and said in a hurry: "I told you not to talk nonsense!"

"Ji and I..." Speaking of this, he accidentally bit his tongue, without the majesty of his elder brother, "Ji, Ji Wei! We are good friends!"

"That's called friendship between gentlemen!"

"Innocent! Not a couple!"

Tang Yuan looked at his elder brother suspiciously: "Really?"

Tang Xuen: "Dang, Dang, of course!"

Tang Xuen defended and said: "Also, don't even think about it. It's okay for me to be friends with Ji Wei. Is he a couple? Am I worthy? Don't look at the difference between me and him."

Tang Yuan was unhappy: "Brother, you can't say that."

"I don't allow you to belittle yourself. In my heart, you are the best big brother in the world, and anyone deserves it."

"But, if you and Brother Ji are not a couple, why haven't you found a partner all these years? You don't even have a woman around you!"

Tang Zheng echoed: "Exactly. Not even a woman!"

How angry!

Tang Xuen was so annoyed by these two unlucky younger brothers, he said, "Why don't I find a girl? Just take a look and you'll know."

"Our parents passed away. I have a high school degree and a self-study college degree. The whole family is an old dilapidated house, and I have two younger brothers. Which good girl can be happy? Doesn't this marriage mean that I have two sons who want to marry me?" worry?"

"If I were a woman, I wouldn't want to find a man with my qualifications. He's just trying to help the poor. It must be the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva."

Speaking of this, Tang Xuen was a little depressed.

how to say?His life after graduating from high school seems to have passed in the blink of an eye. It's not that he didn't think about finding a partner, and there was indeed an element of inferiority in it.Even when others introduced him, he always refused.

If the conditions are good, I feel that it is a drag on others; if the conditions are not good, I feel that I am unable to pull the other party.

He can't do it as long as he is a woman.

It might be a fool to say it.

Secretly said, because he still believes in love.

In the eyes of his younger brothers, he is busy making a living, but in fact, when he was young, he would also cherish the longing for love, copying Xi Murong's poems in a notebook with a fountain pen in elegant handwriting:

It's a dwindling mind

It's the inexplicable sadness before raising the chopsticks

It's a never-ending feast in memory

If you can't drink, you have to fight hard

drunk ①

This is his little secret.

Even my brother doesn't know.

He thought that he wanted to marry someone for true love, and he must not be hasty.

In this way, it was unknowingly delayed until now.

Only now did he realize——

Oh, his little brother is planning to get married, but he is the big brother who doesn't even know where his partner is!

Tang Xuen turned around and scolded his second idiot brother: "Why are you here? Didn't you tell you to wash the dishes? I'm having a heart-to-heart talk with Xiao Yuan, and you came here to join in the fun?"

"The dishes are all finished!" Tang Zheng said confidently, "I am also Xiao Yuan's brother, and I think I am qualified to participate in this educational conference. Why did you hide it from me?"

Also.

The three brothers have always discussed family matters like this together.

As Tang Zheng spoke, he also brought in the bamboo stool that he had half woven today, talking and working at the same time.

He's pretty good at handicrafts.

Because of poor academic performance when he was a child, he was always worried that he would not go to school. He wanted to learn some crafts to make money with his elder brother. Later, he went to learn sports, but the crafts did not fall. Usually, he had to build a table and a chair at home. He can do it all.

"Brother, I don't think our house is that bad, right?" Tang Zheng said optimistically, "Isn't our street very valuable now? Last time I checked, it was [-] to [-] yuan."

He was slapped by Tang Xuen again.

"Is this ancestral production can be sold casually? If you can't sell it, it's not considered money in your hands. It's useless to say anything, and this piece can't be sold casually." Tang Xuen sighed and said, "And... I am not willing Sell. This is our home."

Both younger brothers nodded in agreement.

Tang Yuan said again: "However, I still feel that dating doesn't depend on conditions. Meng Tianyou is also very rich, so he doesn't care if I have money or not."

Tang Xuen stared fiercely as much as possible and said: "He is already as old as you, he is still a man, and he is not a local. If he doesn't even have money, I will let him go as far as he can! How dare you lie to me?" you?"

Tang Zheng echoed: "That's right. Roll as far as you can!"

Tang Yuan looked at the second brother and asked, "Which side are you on, the second brother?"

Tang Zheng said without hesitation: "I am the eldest brother. Whatever the elder brother says, he will do it."

"I just didn't expect that you were gay."

"Wow, I saw an article on the Internet before, saying that boys with older brothers are more likely to be gay, and the more older brothers, the greater the probability of being gay by birth. At that time, I thought it was nonsense, but I didn't expect the real case to be around me! "

Tang Yuan looked at Tang Zheng in confusion and said, "Second brother, can you put this aside to watch the fun? Are you still laughing? I think you and your roommate named Lu are not in love?"

"Huh??" Tang Xuen turned to look at his second brother.

I thought I was here to eat melons, but I didn't expect the melons to hit him on the head. Tang Zheng lost his temper, and he immediately retorted: "You fart! Don't spitting blood!"

"Xiao Lu and I are pure classmates!"

While he was saying these words, the work on his hands didn't stop.

Tang Xuen turned around, put his hands on his knees, and asked, "I've wanted to ask for a long time, why did you work so hard to weave bamboo stools here a few days ago? We don't have any shortage in our house."

"Oh. This?" Tang Zheng raised his head and said as a matter of course, "This is for Xiao Lu! Last time he saw it on the Internet and said he thought it was very beautiful, so I said I would do it and agreed to make one." send him."

Tang Xuen: "..."

Tang Yuan: "..."

Tang Yuan: "You haven't dated anyone, why are you so considerate?"

Tang Zheng said frankly: "Hehe, it was precisely because we had a pure classmate friendship before, without any tricks, that I was able to give him a gift openly. What's wrong? Couldn't it be like this before friends?"

"what?"

"what??"

Tang Yuan looked at his elder brother and then at his second brother, falling into great confusion.

Slowly frowning, pupils are also out of focus.

When Tang Xuen saw his eyes dim, he couldn't help becoming anxious, and hurriedly said to him: "Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan, I don't mean to blame you."

"Ugh."

"You're gay."

"It's because my brother doesn't care enough about you. You are more introverted, and you like to keep everything in your heart and don't say it, for fear that I will worry."

"Actually, you could have told me a long time ago, so you don't have to feel sad to yourself."

When Tang Xuen thought that her well-behaved little brother was secretly in pain, she felt really distressed.

Tang Zheng also said, "That's right, it's fine if you don't tell Big Brother. Why didn't you even tell me?"

Tang Yuan looked at the two of them, his eyes flickering, his lips twitched, and he said, "I wasn't gay before either..."

"I thought you both were closets at first, and I was worried for a long time."

Tang Xuen: "???"

He rubbed his forehead.

Tang Zheng pointed at him and said, "Hey, you go make a fuss yourself, don't blame me!"

"You look at Renji with your eyes, and you yourself are gay, and you look like everyone."

The voice did not fall.

Being slapped by the eldest brother again, Tang Xuen scolded in a tired voice, "Don't scold Xiao Yuan."

Tang Zheng curled his lips, disapproving, and continued to work on weaving his bamboo stool.

Tang Yuan can read, but he is an extremely shy child, known as a little nerd.He couldn't help but panic, sweat broke out from the tip of his forehead and nose, and he looked at his elder brother tremblingly: "Brother, what should we do?"

He realized that he might have misunderstood, and blushed: "Yes, I'm sorry."

"It's all right." Tang Xuen held his hand, "Isn't that gay?"

"What's the big deal?"

"Brother said, you are still my younger brother, if you like men, you will like them."

Tang Yuan was moved by his elder brother's warm gaze, and sniffed.

He remembered when he was a child, the day his father died, the three brothers were waiting outside the operating room.When he learned from the doctor that he could not be rescued, he panicked and frightened, and his brother held his hand.

The elder brother's hands were gentle and powerful, and he took the two of them, bowed to the doctor, and said, "Thank you. Thank you."

He didn't panic at all.

He knew that he had a big brother to rely on.

was thinking.

Tang Xuen came closer and said embarrassedly: "Brother, it's just... I want to discuss with you. If you must find a man, can't you find a local one? I think it's a bit too far away."

Tang Yuan: "..."

The brother talk came to an end.

Chase both back to the room.

Tang Xuen also washed up and went to sleep.

He was lying on the bed peacefully like a corpse.

At two o'clock in the morning, he opened his eyes, stared at the dark ceiling, and sighed.

Worry!

Can't sleep!

After thinking about it, Tang Xuen took out his phone and clicked on the chat dialog with Ji Wei.

The latest chat history is very recent, just a few hours ago, he told Ji Wei that the younger brother went home today and was shopping at the vegetable market.

Ji Wei asked him what kind of dishes he cooked, let's see.

He was so busy that he forgot to come back.

It's so late, Ji Wei is probably already asleep.

Tang Xu Enfa: [My younger brother brought a man back today. 】

[He came out to me. 】

After two seconds.

Ji Wei replied to him: [? 】
