heart last month

Chapter 56

The two brothers got up early in the morning of the 31st to do the general cleaning, and made the house bright and spacious. Song Xiaoyue also specially bought red paper and brushes, and wrote the couplets and blessings by herself.

Although there are only him and Xiaofeng, the taste of the year is not missing.

In the afternoon, Song Xiaoyue cooked chicken soup with mushrooms and minced meat, and made dumplings while watching TV with Xiaofeng. Just after making a basket, Ji Xiaoting, who hadn't moved all day, called.

Song Xiaoyue, who was celebrating Chinese New Year, was in a good mood, and she was not impatient when she answered the phone. Ji Xiaoting asked him what to eat and what he was doing during the Chinese New Year, and he answered everything, and he chatted with him about homework. Finally, Ji Xiaoting suddenly said: "Xiaoyue, I really want to you."

Song Xiaoyue was taken aback for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

Ji Xiaoting said again in a low voice: "Xiaoyue, after dinner, I will accompany you to celebrate the new year, okay?" His voice was low, and Song Xiaoyue suddenly remembered the feeling of him talking next to her ear, not knowing that her ears were red in a circle.

"For Chinese New Year, don't you accompany your family?"

Ji Xiaoting chuckled, "There are a lot of people in the family, and there are many activities. It's the same with me or without me."

As the second son of the Ji family, Ji Xiaoting's words were too false, but in previous years, he usually invited his friends to have fun after the New Year's Eve dinner, and he would not be at home.

Song Xiaoyue said: "But there is no place for you to sleep at home."

This is true, so Ji Xiaoting boldly said: "How about going to me?"

Song Xiaoyue didn't speak, but Ji Xiaoting knew he didn't want to, so he laughed and said, "I'm just kidding, I'll just watch TV on the sofa and go home after the Spring Festival Gala is over."

His posture was so low, Song Xiaoyue couldn't say no to it.

As a result, before the Spring Festival Gala started, Ji Xiaoting came with a lot of food. At that time, the two brothers had just finished eating the dumplings. When Ji Xiaoting saw the vinegar that had not been confiscated on the table, he asked anxiously, "What are the fillings for the dumplings you made?"

Song Xiaoyue didn't even look at it, and said, "Pork, cabbage, tofu and eggs, do you want to try it?"

Ji Xiaoting was waiting for this sentence, and he pretended to be surprised and said: "There are also stuffing like tofu and eggs, so I must try it."

Song Xiaoyue had no choice but to cook dumplings for him, and the dumplings came out after a while. The dumplings at Song Xiaoyue's house were all served with soup, and the seasonings were all in the soup. When eating, dip ginger and garlic in vinegar. Ji Xiaoting's first time Seeing this way of eating, I took a sip of the soup, almost burning my tongue.

Song Xiaofeng laughed out loud at the side, Song Xiaoyue probably cared about his face, and didn't feel like laughing, but that expression seemed too suffocating.

If it made him laugh, I would be willing to burn it ten more times, Ji Xiaoting thought to himself, and deliberately said silly things to tease him, and it really made him laugh.

Ji Xiaoting whispered: "If it makes you happy, I can do whatever you want." He wasn't talking to himself, he hoped that Song Xiaoyue could hear it, but he was afraid that he would hear it.

Song Xiaoyue stood so close, so she heard it naturally. He wanted to say why you bother to say this, and wanted to say thank you, but in the end he only said a good word.

Just this one word made Ji Xiaoting's hanging heart finally drop to the ground.

After eating the dumplings, the Spring Festival Gala began. Song Xiaoyue took advantage of the opening time to wash the dishes. When she came back, she saw Ji Xiaoting peeling the dried fruits one by one. She didn't eat the dried fruits after peeling them, but put them in small plates by category. Xiaofeng took it and ate it.

Seeing this scene, the heat in Song Xiaoyue's heart almost flooded into his eyes, and he gently wiped off the liquid that flowed out uncontrollably.

Even today, he has to admit that he has no way to reject Ji Xiaoting, even if it is not the kind of feelings that Ji Xiaoting wants, he can't resist the warmth Ji Xiaoting gave him.

The three of them huddled together on the small sofa and watched the party. Xiaofeng didn't understand many meanings, but he also watched with gusto.On the other hand, Ji Xiaoting felt very bored, and kept pulling Song Xiaoyue to complain. Song Xiaoyue didn't know that this person had so many dissatisfaction.However, with him being noisy, it was also very lively and interesting.

Until the magic show, Song Xiaofeng had already watched it completely, and kept exclaiming, but unexpectedly, Ji Xiaoting also stopped.

Song Xiaoyue was curious: "Why don't you say this is fake?"

Ji Xiaoting smiled, "Who doesn't know it's fake, do I need to say it?"

Song Xiaoyue was really surprised. Every year, no matter how good the magic performance is at the Spring Festival Gala, they will be ridiculed by the crowd. Some people just enjoy debunking the magic tricks to show that they are superior to others.But I didn't expect that Ji Xiaoting, who doesn't pay attention to anyone, respects this performance.

Seeing that Song Xiaofeng liked it, Ji Xiaoting pointed to the TV and asked him, "Does Xiaofeng like watching this?"

Xiaofeng nodded violently without taking his eyes off, Ji Xiaoting also nodded, and said to Song Xiaoyue with a smile: "There is a special magic show in Yuanxiao, let's take Xiaofeng to see it." He said "Let's take Xiaofeng" instead of "I will take You", maybe even he didn't notice the change in his words, but Song Xiaoyue was poked and nodded unconsciously.

Seeing him nodding without thinking, Ji Xiaoting was so happy that he wanted to jump up from the sofa, secretly stretched out his arms, and put them on the sofa railing. The metaphor of intimacy and possession.

At this moment, Ji Xiaoting's phone rang suddenly, and it turned out to be that group of cronies.It's those shows every year, but he has Song Xiaoyue this year, who wants to play with those single dogs.Afraid of disturbing Song Xiaofeng watching TV, Ji Xiaoting went to the kitchen to answer the phone, and turned off the phone when he came out.

Gao Yu, who was hung up by Ji Ershao without saying a few words, was angry at him, and cursed: "Old Ji is really screwed this time, why is he so worthless."

Liu Jingmin had seen Ji Xiaoting looking like he was dying, and now that he was able to be with his sweetheart on New Year's Eve, no matter what he said, he was happy for him.What he cared about was what happened to the cold war between Qin Mu and Ji Xiaoting that had been going on for almost two months.

"Old Qin, are you still arguing with Lao Ji? We've been brothers for more than [-] years, and we're just boys. Why do you have to argue with Lao Ji?"

Qin Mu smiled, "How do you know that I'm arguing with him?"

Everyone was speechless, you didn't fight with him openly, but you dangled in front of his sweetheart, the sense of existence was strong.

Qin Mu took a sip of his wine, smiled lightly and said, "I have someone I like, but it's not the one Ji Xiaoting has in his heart?"

What? ? ? ?

Everyone was stunned. Qin Mu clearly said that he had someone he liked, and that was no joke. In their view, Qin Mu's confession of feelings must be truer than Ji Xiaoting's sincerity towards Song Xiaoyue. .

Everyone asked who it was, but Qin Mu just said it was a little angel, but didn't say a word about the others.A group of people were unable to pry his mouth open after soaking for a long time, so they had to persuade him, "In this case, you should make it clear to Lao Ji, we are brothers, why make such a fuss."

Qin Mu just laughed and didn't say another word.

**

Not long after the big bell rang, Ji Xiaoting fell asleep. Song Xiaoyue thought about it for a while, but didn't wake him up.

Ji Xiaoting spent the night nestled on the narrow sofa, waking up with a sore back and a sore back, but the moment he touched the quilt on his body, he smiled like an idiot.

The winter vacation passed in the blink of an eye, and Ji Xiaoting really didn't stop Song Xiaoyue from working, nor did he cling to him when he was working, but instead asked him to help Song Xiaofeng a few times.But Xiaofeng doesn't need him to take it with him, as Xiaofeng can make money by himself now.

Qin Mu visited them once, and gave Xiaofeng a red envelope, saying it was lucky money.

Not long after the start of school, the prize money for the competition was approved, and the bursary that I applied for last time was also going through the final process. It was the very spring, and Song Xiaoyue could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He paid back Wei Zhou's money with the money from his part-time job during the winter vacation and the bonus, and returned the rest of the bonus to Qin Mu. Qin Mu accepted all without delay, but he bought everything for Xiaofeng in a blink of an eye.

Song Xiaoyue discussed Xiaofeng's education with Qin Mu again, Qin Mu smiled slightly and said, "Well, I happen to be going to tell you this too."

"Have you ever thought about sending Xiaofeng to a special school?"

Song Xiaoyue was taken aback.

Of course he thought about it. Public schools don’t need tuition fees, they only need to pay living expenses. The most important thing is that there are special teachers in the school to teach him, and there are rehabilitation teachers to take care of him. He can even have classmates. , there is almost no bad place.When Song Xiaoyue first came to the Imperial City, it was like sending Xiaofeng to him, but this kind of school has very strict qualifications for admission, and there is no solution to the problem if it is not for the local household registration.

Song Xiaoyue was in a dilemma, "I thought about it, but we are not qualified to enter the school."

Qin Mu smiled and said, "It's fine if you are willing, and you don't have to worry about the eligibility to enter the school."

Song Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, it was as difficult as heaven for them, but for Qin Mu, it might just be a matter of saying a word.

The matter of sending Xiaofeng to a special school was settled like this. Song Xiaoyue insisted on inviting Qin Mu to dinner, and Qin Mu did not refuse.

Song Xiaoyue said that she couldn't just have a casual meal, and wanted to invite Qin Mu to a better place, and if she wanted to walk around, she had to invite people to eat, so she couldn't go to a casual place.

Qin Mu said that he didn't need to worry about it, and finally asked Song Xiaofeng what he wanted to eat, and finally decided on the place where Xiaofeng chose.

The three were discussing happily, and Song Xiaoyue received a call from Ji Xiaoting saying that he couldn't come to have dinner with him because of something, but no one found that Ji Xiaoting was only a hundred meters away.

Part of the reason why Ji Xiaoting temporarily decided not to show up was that he didn't want to conflict with Qin Mu, and the other part was that he didn't want to embarrass Song Xiaoyue, but seeing the three of them being so affectionate, the acid in his heart couldn't help but leak out.

Even though all the brothers came to tell him that Qin Mu had someone he liked, and that person wasn't Song Xiaoyue, Ji Xiaoting didn't believe it.

If Qin Mu really didn't like Song Xiaoyue, why didn't he come and explain to him in person, why he was allowed to misunderstand him all the time, besides, the deep affection in Qin Mu's eyes was so obvious, he wasn't blind and couldn't see it.

If Qin Mu didn't come to him, he would take the initiative to find Qin Mu. There must be a solution to this matter. He won't give up on Song Xiaoyue, and it doesn't mean he will give up on his brother.
