Chapter 92 Chapter 92
After rinsing his mouth, Ye Xun sat on the sofa in the living room, took out all the beauty devices in the space, spread them all over the table, and then called Qin Wei to come and choose.
"Qin Ge, take a look at these and pick out the ones you need."
Worried that Qin Wei, a straight man, didn't know the functions of these instruments, Ye Xun introduced them one by one.
"This one is for lifting, the one next to it is for whitening and removing spots, this one is for cleaning, and this one is very good for anti-wrinkle. My mother has been using it all the time, even after the apocalypse. Look at the effect, isn't it amazing?"
To be honest, Ye's mother does look much younger than her actual age. She doesn't look like someone in her sixties at all, not to mention all the traveling she has done.
Qin Wei liked Ye Xun’s fair skin, but still hoped to have a masculine dark skin. He picked out a few lifting and anti-wrinkle products and went back to his room to study them.
Over the next period of time, Ye Xun discovered that Qin Wei spent significantly more time looking in the mirror. He never expected that this guy had such a vain side.
Meet with Mr. and Mrs. Ye, and have a family dinner.
The family of four had not had a proper meal together for more than half a year. Ye's mother asked Qin Wei to invite Qin Ye as well, and even Chen Guoan was invited.
As for their biological father, forget it.
It really is true that evil will last for a thousand years. Qin's father, a man who has been working in an office for a long time, can still live to this day without the help of his brothers.
The woman I brought to dinner last time didn't get a spot on the ship and died early in the tsunami. I don't know where she is now.
When I met Qin Ye, he looked much more haggard than before, with new dark stubble on his chin, and an indescribable charm of a mature man.
Ye Xun himself is a gay and has always admired handsome men. He secretly took a few glances at Qin Wei when he wasn't paying attention.
I heard Qin Wei say before that his brother has never found a partner, probably because his father dislikes him.
Now that life is stable, it is time for Qin Wei to persuade his brother to find one. After all, it is not easy to live alone in the last days.
Ye's father and Qin Wei worked together and quickly prepared a table of dishes. They knew Ye Xun's taste and cooked his favorite dishes.
When everyone sat together at the table, Ye's mother saw the bandage accidentally exposed on Ye Xun's sleeve and asked in surprise: "Xun, what happened to your hand? When did you get injured?"
Ye's mother's loud voice successfully attracted everyone at the dinner table to her hands. Even Wang Yu, who was obsessed with petting the cat, stopped what he was doing.
The injury had been exposed. Ye Xun erased the strange man and briefly told his mother and father what had happened. "I got injured when Qin Wei and I were moving things on the boat. It's not a big deal. I'm almost healed."
The scabs had formed over the past few days, and the itchiness from the healing wounds always made him unable to resist scratching them. When Qin Wei discovered this, he scolded him again.
How can parents not feel distressed when their children get slightly injured? During the meal, Ye's father and mother tried hard to put vegetables into Ye Xun's bowl, and Wang Yu followed suit and picked up a big chicken drumstick.
Ye Xun looked at the rice bowls piled up like a mountain, feeling like crying but without tears. He was not a person with a big appetite to begin with, and he was afraid that he would vomit after eating so much.
He looked to Qin Wei for help, but he ignored his message for help and chatted with Ye's father about the interesting things they had on the boat. It was obvious that he was trying very hard to please his father-in-law.
The food on the table was prepared by Qin Wei according to everyone's appetite, so everyone ate it all. Even Ye Xun barely finished the hill of food, with the food almost coming up to his throat.
From the conversation between Ye's father and Qin Wei, I learned that during the time he was recuperating, the base detected several pregnant women one after another, but because of physical weakness, more than half of them had miscarriages.
"Fortunately, there are still a dozen or so with good physical fitness, and the fetuses are all stable. In another six or seven months, there will be newborns in the base." Chen Guoan took a sip of soju and exclaimed, "There are a few families with difficulties who can't raise the children after they are born. If Xiaoye and Qin Wei plan to raise children in the near future, you can go through the adoption procedures. You are in good conditions, so I feel more at ease if the child is left to you."
When Chen Guoan said this, he had no other intentions. He was simply worried about the retirement issues of the two.
Ye Xun doesn't plan to have children for the time being. They are still young, and it won't be too late to have one whenever they want one.
Qin Wei shared the same opinion as him. He himself did not like children and thought they were troublesome. In addition, he was worried that having a child would divert Ye Xun's attention, so he was absolutely against raising a child.
Seeing that the two really didn't want it, Chen Guoan gave up and said, "If you change your mind, you can always come to me."
Those families were trying their best to send their children to Ye Xun's home and had asked him many times to ask Ye Xun what he thought. Since the other party had no such plan, Chen Guoan refused.
There is one more thing.
"Yu Fei and Lin Zhiyuan's marriage is set. The two families will have a simple meal together the day after tomorrow. You all must come and show your support then."
Chen Guoan took out a few wedding invitations from his arms and handed them to everyone present.
The conditions are simple and we can't host a large-scale banquet, but the basic procedures are still required. We should get married now while the temperature is still acceptable. If it gets colder, it will be inconvenient.
On the day of Yu Fei's wedding, Ye Xun rummaged through the boxes and found two decent sets of clothes for himself and Qin Wei to wear.
This was his first time attending a friend's wedding, so he naturally took it seriously.
The Chen and Lin families' courtyards were close to theirs, and they only needed to walk two or three minutes to reach their destination.
The entrance of the building is decorated with lights and it is very lively and easy to recognize.
Everyone who passed by would be given a few wedding candies. Candies were a scarce commodity nowadays. It seemed that the groom's family was quite wealthy, so Yu Fei would not have to suffer if she married him.
The wedding banquet only invited the relatives and friends of the bride and groom, and there were only three tables in total. Many people lost contact in the apocalypse, either dead or no longer in touch with each other.
When the bride and groom came out to toast, Ye Xun took the time to take a look. He was a handsome man with a gentle temperament like jade. Standing next to the introverted and shy Yu Fei, they were a good match.
I heard from people who know them that they used to go to the same university. The man is a good person and has a good family background, so they can be considered a good match.
Ye Xun looked at the lively scene and thought that he and Qin Wei had never held a banquet before. They were both people who were afraid of trouble, but there was still a sense of ceremony.
He leaned close to Qin Wei's ear and told him his thoughts, "Do you think we should have a wedding? Forget about the banquet, and just give out some wedding candies as a token of appreciation. You are marrying into our Ye family, so you still have to have the status you deserve."
Qin Wei was naturally overjoyed after hearing this, but he still had to pretend, fearing that he would appear too happy and look cheap.
"You are the head of the family from now on, and I will listen to you."
Amid the laughter of the guests, the two quietly decided the most important event in their lives.
Ye Xun was thinking about the sugar in the space. Taking it all out would arouse suspicion. He happened to have a few bags of wheat, so he could make some malt sugar. If asked, he would have an explanation.
The method of making maltose is simple. Ye Xun was injured and it was inconvenient for him to do it himself, so he directed Qin Wei throughout the process.
It took about 11 days from soaking the seeds to making maltose. In order to make the maltose taste richer, Ye Xun added some nuts and dried fruits into it.
After the fresh malt sugar came out of the oven, Ye Xun tried a piece first. It tasted great, and he gave Qin Wei an affirmative thumbs up.
While Qin Wei was boiling maltose, he was cutting the paper that would wrap the sugar. In this weather, there was no need to worry about the paper sticking to the sugar, and it could be stored at room temperature.
The next morning, Ye's father and mother were handing out candies at the door.
