Hearing this, the book read a moment of dull, thinking of his words, blankly asked: "so you remember wrong, today is not new year's Eve, is Valentine's day?"

As if afraid of her anger, Xie Ruhe's voice slightly lowered: "well."

Shunian was relieved: "isn't it necessary to keep watch for the new year?"

"Well."

"Then I'll go to bed."

“……”

Shunian lay back on the bed and noticed that he didn't speak. She explained in a low voice, "I'm too sleepy. I'll call you another day. You go to bed early, too. "

Did not expect to get such a response, Xie Ruhe silence for a few seconds.

“…… Good

I haven't fallen asleep so early since I've been studying for a long time. Maybe I lived in my father's room, surrounded by familiar and practical atmosphere, as if I could still hear my father's hearty laughter.

I had a good sleep.

When I woke up again, it was already dawn.

The curtain does not block the light. In winter, the warm sunshine comes in from the outside, and the light spot covers the ground.

I could hear my grandparents talking at a low volume outside, as if they were afraid of waking her up. I don't know from which bed comes the sound of dogs crowing, children's frolicking, the sound of bicycle bells.

It's the sound of the morning.

He got up to change his clothes and went to the toilet to wash.

Grandparents have been awake for some time. At this time, one is sitting on a wooden chair reading a newspaper, the other is wearing presbyopia glasses and doing handicrafts. One is talking without the other.

The book read obediently called a person, then selfishly went to the kitchen to install a bowl of porridge. She drank porridge in silence, because she had just woken up, her head was still a little dizzy, but she was in good spirits.

The spirit of the two old people is also very good, and occasionally they mix their mouths.

This kind of feeling is actually very good. It's much better than living alone in that lonely little house. You don't have to be afraid, and you won't feel scared and uneasy because of some small things.

During the period, Deng Qingyu called her and explained a few words. They said they would not come to have new year's Eve dinner with them. They would come later.

The new year's Eve dinner in Shiyan town is early.

After a nap, my grandparents went into the small kitchen and began to cook. Shunian accompanied them, talking with a smile and taking a few bites from time to time.

It's new year's Eve, and most of the stores on the street are closed. The ingredients were bought early in the morning and piled up all over the refrigerator. Because of the arrival of the book, the two old people prepared more.

Almost ready, there was a knock on the door.

At this time, the two old men were too busy to open their hands. Shunian took the initiative to go over: "I'll open the door."

Grandma Shu murmured at the back, "who will be this time?"

Shunian opened the door and there was a man standing outside.

She only met yesterday. She is the man who has been following Aunt Chen and coaxing her to go home, Aunt Chen's son.

The man's hand carrying a basket of fruit, toward her smile: "is the book read?"

Shunian nodded: "hello."

The man didn't come in, handed her the fruit basket and said, "I haven't come to thank you all the time. If it wasn't for you, now..."

Before he finished his words, the book grandfather suddenly interrupted him: "read."

Shunian turned back: "what's the matter?"

Book grandfather said: "you go to the convenience store outside, help grandfather buy a bottle of drink back."

The book read Oh, cleverly asked: "what kind of drink?"

"Buy a bottle of orange juice."

"Good." Shunian was very obedient. He picked up his coat on the sofa and nodded to the man. "I'll go out and talk to you."

The man obviously didn't know the situation. He looked at shunian's back and scratched his head: "Book grandfather, I haven't finished my words yet..."

"I know. I took your mind for Niannian. Later -- "grandfather Shu sighed," you'd better not mention it in front of her. She doesn't like to hear it. "

Grandparents' house is near Shiyan junior high school.

It takes about five minutes for shunian to walk to the convenience store next to the school. At this time, almost no one can be seen on the street. Occasionally, a wild cat can be seen running by.

Shunian walked into the convenience store with a warm breath.

The only shop on the street is still open.

Shunian opens the freezer, takes out a large bottle of orange juice and pays at the front desk. The shopkeeper was no longer the middle-aged woman who had a kind smile, but a tall and thin man.

It looks a little familiar. I can't remember who it is after reading the book.

The man took the machine to scan the bar code, eyebrows a lift, surprised: "read?"

Read subconsciously to see him: "you are?"

The man smiles, reaches out his hand and rubs her head: "don't you recognize me?"

It's a very familiar movement.

Reading subconsciously back a few steps, look with a bit of defense.The man's hand stops in the air, but does not mind too much: "the courage becomes so small?"

Because of his action, his breath became a little short, holding the hem of his clothes, staring at his face, and gradually coincided with a figure in his mind.

She swallowed and whispered, "sister?"

The man's posture was enchanting, and he made a move to pull his hair: "hum."

“……”

It's the son of a convenience store aunt.

That always likes to wear women's clothes, because this brother is always chased by his aunt for three blocks. At that time, shunian came to this store to buy things. He liked to tease her and asked her to call his sister.

At the beginning of reading, I didn't like it very much. I think this person is very strange.

I get used to it.

"When did you come back?" He no longer wore women's clothes as before, and his hair was cut short, which made him a bit more heroic. The man asked with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time"

shunian said: "I came back yesterday."

The man did not ask again, pointed to the bottle of orange juice: "this seven."

Shunian paid with his mobile phone: "then I'll go back. Happy new year."

"Happy new year."

The man stood in the same place, looking at her back, suddenly remembered the previous things. At that time, shunian was always accompanied by a tall, thin and gloomy boy.

One is tall and the other is short.

Standing together is particularly harmonious, like a little rabbit followed by a wolf tail.

When he went to amuse the students, the young man always stood in front of him with a cold face.

Extremely unhappy, emotional leakage is also very obvious.

These two people, born in Shiyan Town, live in this place and gradually grow up. In the end, it turned out to be the last place they wanted to come back.

The man sighed and suddenly stopped reading: "little sister."

“……”

"Do you still have contact with the Xie family boy?"

The book reads to embrace orange juice, Leng Leng ground stands in situ: "how?"

The man scratched his head. In fact, he didn't know whether to mention it or not: "his father seems to be very ill. I just think it's important to say that you don't care too much. "

By the time she got home, Aunt Chen's son had already left. She didn't ask him what he was doing. They had dinner together and then went to the living room to watch the Spring Festival Gala and talk.

Deng Qingyu came over at more than eight o'clock, but Wang Hao and Wang Linxi did not follow.

While they were chatting, shunian went to take a bath with his clothes in his arms.

When I came out, my grandparents were ready to go to bed. Deng Qingyu looks tired and smiles at her. She is ready to take a bath in the bathroom with her clothes.

Shunian was stunned: "Mom, don't you go back today?"

Deng Qingyu said: "come here to accompany you, and go back tomorrow."

Shunian didn't speak.

Noticing her look, Deng Qingyu half joked: "what's the matter? Aren't you happy when mom comes here? "

Shunian shook his head: "No."

When Deng Qingyu enters the bathroom, Shu Nian returns to the room with his mobile phone and sits on the bed. She remembered the phone call from Xie Ruhe last night.

She was sleepy at the time.

Sometimes she has to think for a while to understand what Xie Ruhe said.

I don't remember what they talked about. I remember that Xie Ruhe asked her if she wanted to keep the new year, and shunian agreed. But after a while, he suddenly responded that he had remembered the wrong time.

Then he went to bed.

At this point, Xie Ruhe should be looking for someone to accompany him.

Today, Deng Qingyu came to sleep with her, but shunian couldn't accompany him. She bit the knuckle of her index finger, thought about it, and sent him a wechat: "happy new year."

Xie Ruhe returned quickly: "happy new year, shunian."

Shunian said, "I'm ready to go to bed."

After a while, Xie Ruhe said, "well, good night."

Shunian also said good night, but there was no feeling of letting go. I don't know if he spent new year's Eve alone or went to his grandfather's house. Inexplicably worried that he would be alone in this festival.

Thinking of what the brother in the convenience store said today, shunian hesitated to tell him.

Xie Ruhe's father

In the end, the book should be finished.

Deng Qingyu just came back from the bathroom, with a hair dryer in her hand. She came to dry shunian's hair, and then went to one side to dry her hair.

Shunian looked at her and said in a low voice, "you come here. Won't Uncle Wang be unhappy?"

"No way." Deng Qingyu said, "how can a big man be so mean."

Look at her expression is not like lying, shunian put down his heart, hanging his head playing with the mobile phone.

For a long time, Deng Qingyu put the hair dryer on the table, came and lay down on the bed, and crowded with her in the same bed. She looked sleepy, and her voice was gentle, and she said what happened today.It wasn't long before it was like falling asleep.

In order to accommodate the study, Deng Qingyu didn't turn off the light. At this time, the room was bright.

But shunian couldn't sleep very much, staring at the white ceiling, a little absent-minded. It's not quiet outside. You can hear the laughter and the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky.

Shunian looks in the direction of the window.

Thinking of the year of her sixteenth birthday, the boy who had been waiting outside the window for a long time knocked on her window patiently. They were out in the cold together, protecting the same candle together, and talking about what they wanted to do in the future.

Unknowingly, we also ushered in a new year together.

Thinking of this, shunian took a look at his mobile phone.

It's almost twelve o'clock.

She pursed her lips, made up her mind, and crept out of bed.

Deng Qingyu was sleeping very deeply. She didn't notice her action, but turned over. But shunian was also startled by her movement. After standing still for half a minute, she slowly got up and left the room.

It's like going back to the time when he secretly went out to play with Xie Ruhe without telling Deng Qingyu.

Shunian put on his coat, shivered with cold, and went to the yard.

She took a deep breath, picked up her cell phone and called Xie Ruhe.

There were three rings and there was a pick-up.

The book reads the screen to breathe, for a moment also don't know what to say.

Then, Xie Ruhe opened his mouth, his tone was a little stupefied, with a bit of lethargy when he just woke up, as if he were still in a dream.

"Reading?"

Hearing his tone, he hesitated and said, "are you sleeping?"

"Well." Xie Ruhe said, "you said you were going to sleep."

“……”

"I went to bed, too."
