The heart has always been the heart of the spectator

Dongfang Xing has great expectations for the New Year—or to celebrate the New Year with Qin Jianshan. When he went out a few days ago, he could almost buy whatever he saw, and Qin Jianshan couldn't stop him.

"It's better to have a lively New Year's Eve", this is what Dongfang Xing used to block Qin Jianshan every time.

In fact, Dongfang Xing was older than Qin Jianshan, but Qin Jianshan always felt that he was childish, but seeing Dongfang Xing happy every day, he himself became happy too.

On New Year's Eve, it was rare for Dongfang Xing not to get up early to do exercises, but to lie down facing Qin Jianshan and wait for him to wake up—in fact, the two of them had never lay face to face, after all, they were both men, and it would be embarrassing to wake up in the morning.So when Qin Jianshan opened his eyes and saw the face close at hand, he was startled, and subconsciously stepped back a little, but Dongfang Xing seemed very happy, as if even his eyes shimmered.

"Brother Qin, let me teach you how to make dumplings."

"Okay." Unexpectedly, Dongfang Xing waited for him to wake up just to say this, Qin Jianshan obediently agreed, and then got up quickly, his face still had some fever.

"What's wrong with you?" Dongfang Xing who asked this sentence had a frank ignorance and curiosity on his face, leaving Qin Jianshan helpless.It's early in the morning, won't he feel embarrassed?

"I'll go make a fire first, it's too cold outside, you can lie down a little longer." Qin Jianshan put on his clothes with his back turned to Dongfangxing, and hurried out of the room after saying this.

Dongfang Xing watched Qin Jianshan go out and closed the door. The sound of footsteps gradually faded away. He mustered up his courage and stretched his hand to the other side that was still warm, then slowly moved over and took a deep breath. Tone...

"By the way..." Qin Jianshan suddenly pushed open the door, and saw Dongfang Xing bounced up like a rabbit, his eyes widened and his face was full of tension, "Did it scare you?"

"Ah? No, no. Why are you back?"

Qin Jianshan scratched his head in embarrassment, "What are we going to prepare? I will prepare it in advance."

"I'll get up with you right away, you go to the kitchen first."

Dongfang Xing said he wanted to teach Qin Jianshan how to make dumplings, but he didn’t know how to make dumplings himself. He only saw his parents make dumplings when he was a child during the Chinese New Year. After that, he only saw dumplings cooked on a plate for many years, and he never made them himself. did these things.But fortunately, he made it clear that Qin Jianshan is also very perceptive in this regard, and the two of them actually made a dumpling before noon.

But the dumplings were not cooked as expected, about [-]% of the dumplings were broken, and the pot almost turned into a lump soup.

Thinking that this was their lunch, both of them were a little dumbfounded, especially the Dongfang Xing who boasted "Although I don't do it often, but I'm actually very good at it", it was even more embarrassing at the moment.

"That... Actually..."

"It's okay, I didn't do well, try harder next time."

Knowing that Qin Jianshan was afraid of embarrassing himself, Dongfang Xing stopped mentioning it, and resigned himself to finishing the pimple soup.

Having nothing to do after lunch, the two moved chairs to the backyard to bask in the sun.In the middle, Dongfang Xing couldn't stay idle, so he ran out by himself.Qin Jianshan closed his eyes and rested his mind, thinking about what had happened in the past six months, thinking about the obstacles in his practice, and soon fell into a huge trouble, feeling a little restless.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Jianshan heard a rooster crowing, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Dongfang Xing holding a... hen.

"You... bought it? Didn't you buy dried chicken a few days ago?" Qin Jianshan said as he got up and walked towards the east, intending to take the chicken in his hand and take it to the kitchen.

"I didn't buy it, I stole it."

Qin Jianshan's footsteps stopped, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be twitching when he looked closely. "It's Chinese New Year, you're like this... hey, tell me which family you got it from, and I'll go and put some silver there."

Dongfang Xing refused to answer, glanced at Qin Jianshan, and went to the kitchen without him.Qin Jianshan always felt that something was wrong, so he chased the past and continued to ask.Dongfang Xing was finally annoyed by his questions, and said with a cold face, "I didn't know Brother Qin that you were so easy to deceive", and then he left the chicken and left.

Qin Jianshan stood in the kitchen, glanced at the back of Dongfang Xing's leaving, and then at the hen thrown on the ground, at a loss.After hesitating for a while between "chasing Dongfang Brothers" and "handling the chicken in the kitchen", Qin Jianshan finally brought a back basket from the corner to cover the chicken, and then walked quickly to the room.

After hesitating at the door for a long time, Qin Jianshan was a little afraid to go in.In the end, Dongfang Xing couldn't stand it any longer and let him in.

"Brother Dongfang, you... are you angry?"

"Why should I be angry? Anyway, you believe everything I say, and it's not the first day I know." Dongfang Xing's expression was indifferent, even a little cold, Qin Jianshan once again didn't know whether what he said was true or not.

"You know, I'm a stupid person. If you're really angry, just tell me and I'll change it."

Dongfang Xing almost laughed out loud, the little bit of temper just now was gone, "I'm really not angry, let's prepare the New Year's Eve dinner early, let's not get drunk at night."

The New Year's Eve dinner for the two of them started before Youshi, and the table of dishes that Qin Jianshan fixed was not very good in appearance and taste, but fortunately, the two of them didn't pick much, as long as the wine was good, the others didn't matter.

Dongfangxing specially bought more than a dozen jars of wine and put them in the cellar before the Chinese New Year, and moved them all out and put them in the kitchen today.Qin Jianshan first warmed the three altars and took them into the room. Dongfang Xing laughed at him for underestimating his drinking capacity. Qin Jianshan just smiled indifferently. His master said that drinking too much was a mistake, and he always remembered it in his heart, so it was close to 30 years has never been drunk in his life.

After drinking the three altars of wine, both of them looked unchanged and their minds were clear. Qin Jianshan wanted to stop in moderation, but Dongfang Xing was not happy and forced him to warm up the wine again.Naturally, Qin Jianshan couldn't hold him back, so he had no choice but to comfort himself by saying that there was nothing wrong with him here, and it didn't matter if he got drunk once.

After drinking five or six jars of wine, Dongfang Xing finally became a little drunk, his eyes became a little hazy, and he talked more.

"Brother Qin, how old are you this year?"

"Seven out of twenty out of twenty."

"Then I'm three years older than you, so you should call me Brother Dongfang." After talking about Dongfang Xing, he found it interesting and laughed to himself. "Then have you had any troubles in the past 27 years?"

Hearing the word trouble, Qin Jianshan was in a daze for a moment. It can be said that his troubles have only occurred in the past year. In the past [-] years, he has been the master's favorite disciple and the senior brother of the sect. His classmates admire him, how does he know what troubles are?But what happened before coming here can be said to be the most thrilling and bizarre thing he has encountered in these years.

"Of course there are troubles. In fact, I never knew why I came here."

Dongfang Xing was a little surprised, "Didn't Brother Qin say that your master asked you to practice?"

Qin Jianshan obviously didn't expect Dongfang Xing to take to heart what the two said when they first met, and he didn't know how to answer this question.

"Forget it, Brother Qin must have his own difficulties and he doesn't want to tell me. Then let's not mention it, come on, let's have a drink."

Is he someone you can trust?Can you tell him about your own experience?These secrets have been in Qin Jianshan's heart for almost a year, and he has never said a word to others. He is depressed and painful, but he is not sure whether he can say it.Maybe it has been said that Dongfangxing will only be regarded as a fairy tale.Besides, how much of what he said to himself was true?

"So Dongfang Brother, what troubles do you have?"

"I, yes." Dongfang Xing poured himself three cups, met Qin Jianshan's focused gaze, and smiled sadly, "I had everything I wanted when I was 20 years old, but I didn't realize it until I got it. These things are bullshit. The people around me are either afraid of me or have plans for me. There are very few people who treat me sincerely. Others always think that I have everything all these years and my wishes have been fulfilled, but No one knows that I have nothing."

Qin Jianshan was a little confused by the yes and no of Dongfang Xing, and his reaction slowed down. "What do you want? Fame? Power?" He came here largely because of these two things, so he thought that Dongfang Xing couldn't get these things.

Dongfangxing shook his head, "What do I want fame and power for?"

"Then what do you want?"

Dongfang Xing was deeply immersed in Qin Jianshan's focused and concerned eyes, completely unaware that his expression full of anticipation and deep meaning now fell into Qin Jianshan's eyes.But when he looked at Qin Jianshan, what he saw was his usual magnanimity and openness, and then he lowered his head and laughed at himself, maybe it would be best not to say anything.When he spoke again, Dongfang Xing's voice became sharp again, "I don't know."

What was said later, the two of them actually didn't remember very clearly, and they drank all of the dozens of jars of wine without knowing it.

"Brother Dongfang, it's getting late, let's rest." Qin Jianshan stood up and walked to Dongfang Xing, but after a few steps, he was a little wobbly.

Dongfang Xing said at noon that he would watch the New Year with Qin Jianshan, but now he is so drunk that he can hardly keep his eyes open.Hearing that Qin Jianshan said to rest, he was about to stand up, but he sat down again in a daze, and fell on Qin Jianshan's body.

"You also said that you can drink a lot, you...cough, can't you stand up?"

Qin Jianshan helped Dongfang Xing up and was about to help him onto the bed when he suddenly heard him say something.

"what?"

"I said, if... if..."

He fell asleep before he finished speaking the oriental jargon. He was half a head shorter than Qin Jianshan, and leaned on Qin Jianshan's shoulder with his head tilted.

Qin Jianshan helped Dongfang Xing take off his coat, put him to sleep, covered him with the quilt, and added some more firewood before he fell asleep.

He didn't know what Dongfang Xing wanted to say, but he thought, it would be good if the days to come were like this.
