22. It's like eating soft rice.
February 14th.
The day before the Lantern Festival, a traditional festival in China, Chinese people like to call it the New Year.
This day is also Valentine's Day, a romantic holiday in the West.
The third year of high school started a week earlier, in order to make students and teachers happy for the New Year.
On the 14th, it was half a day, and on the 15.16th, it was rested for two days in a row.
Chen Dongyang originally planned to take advantage of the holiday to directly build the 'novel website' in one go.
But on the afternoon of the 14th, after eating the Lantern Festival cooked by my grandmother at home.
Chen Dongyang received a call from Han Qingli asking him to go shopping.
can't shirk it, and it can't be done with the delicate relationship between the two now.
After making an appointment with the time and place, Chen Dongyang took a shower, said a word to his grandparents, and went out.
Because today is Valentine's Day, and it is the Lunar New Year, there are many people who come out to play.
A bright moon hangs in the sky, and the faint moonlight covers Yijiang City, a small city with a bit of ancient town style, quite a little willow tops on the moon, and people feel like they are about after dusk.
On the phone, I made an appointment with Han Qingli to meet at the gate of the city park.
When he arrived here, Chen Dongyang saw Han Qingli in slim jeans sitting on a bench not far away with a cup of milk tea, the lights of the night gathered on her through the gaps in the leaves of the small elm trees on the side of the road, the snow-white neck was tied with a thin colored gold pendant, the crystal lips were shining, and the long hair scattered over the shoulders was soft and shiny, no matter from any angle, she looked like a beautiful girl who came out on a date after carefully dressing up.
"What are you looking at? so focused?"
Chen Dongyang sat next to Han Qingli and found that she was looking at the street, where two little boys and girls were playing with fireworks sticks, and occasionally a few fireworks bloomed in the sky, which was probably the most beautiful moment under the night sky.
Chen Dongyang thought that more than ten years later, the city began to ban fireworks and firecrackers, and there was no New Year's flavor at all, so it was inevitable that he would be a little nostalgic: "I am eighteen years old, and I still want to set off fireworks." Then I'll go buy you a barrel. ”
Han Qingli, who was drinking milk tea, showed a look of reminiscence: "Do you remember when you were a child, we spent the New Year in our hometown Nan'an? Every New Year, you would always put that kind of loud firecrackers in front of me to scare me into tears, and then run to coax me.... You scoundrel, I secretly told myself several times that I wouldn't be playing with you tomorrow, but the next day, I was always with you again. You say, I owe you all my life. ”
As he spoke, Han Qingli took a breath, looked up at the fleeting fireworks in the distance, put the half-drunk milk tea in Chen Dongyang's hand and let him hold it, and made a lazy waist movement, and the perfect body curve was unobstructed.
Han Qingli and Chen Dongyang have known each other since they were children, knowing that they were very skinny when they were children, and they were not less affected by the golden sticks of their parents, and now they listen to Han Qingli turning over old accounts, who is happy, so he explained: "At that time, I was not sensible, so I always like to scare the timid you, guess I still dare to do this now." ”
Han Qingli bit his lip: "Forgive me for not daring~~"
As soon as she finished speaking, who knew that Chen Dongyang actually took out a firecracker from his body, and with a stroke of the lighter, Han Qingli was so frightened that he drilled directly into his arms.
"Bang~~"
There was a loud bang in the distance.
Many people visiting the park around were taken aback, but they felt that it was not a big deal, but the person who set off the firecrackers was a bit old and had such a heavy playfulness.
Before the sound of firecrackers sounded, Chen Dongyang had already covered Han Qingli's ears, which he bought on the way here, the smell of the New Year in the air made Chen Dongyang's childlike heart sleepless, and he hadn't let it go for many years, and now he simply came to it for a few shots to enjoy it.
"Hand it over to me~~"
Han Qingli grabbed Chen Dongyang's jacket pocket and had to collect it. "You hate to die. Why did you hide this on your body, and is there any? ”
Chen Dongyang turned out the four pockets of his clothes and pants, and there was nothing except a lighter: "I put some on the way here." It was the last one. Surprised, don't you feel like you've gone back to the past?"
Han Qingli sneered and confiscated the lighter: "Like a child." ”
Chen Dongyang said: "It's good to be like a child, carefree. ”
Han Qingli stretched out his hand and took the initiative to take Chen Dongyang's arm: "My aunt's family has gone to her mother-in-law for the New Year, and she was originally going to take me with her." I found an excuse to stay at home so I had time to go out shopping with you. Let's go, let's go, don't sit, let's go to the department store in front. ”
"Obey!" Chen Dongyang has time tonight, and he can accompany her until dawn.
The two walked down the street arm in arm like an ordinary couple.
The festive atmosphere was everywhere in the small city of Yijiang City, and when he saw that there were flower sellers on the roadside, Han Qingli turned his head and asked Chen Dongyang: "Do you know what festival it is today?"
"On the fourteenth day of the first month, it's a New Year. ”
"I'm not talking about the lunar calendar, I'm talking about the Gregorian calendar. ”
Chen Dongyang pretended to think for a while: "February 14, what's wrong?
Han Qingli gently slapped Chen Dongyang's chest, obviously angry, but when he said it, it turned into a coquettish tone: "I hate it to death, it's not deliberate." Then let me tell you, today is Valentine's Day. ”
Chen Dongyang said with a serious face: "Isn't Valentine's Day the seventh of July?"
Han Qingli took Chen Dongyang's hand and retracted it, paused for a moment at his waist, and then twisted it slightly. However, when she heard Chen Dongyang's unprepared scream, she relented and hung his arm tightly: "What are you going to give me as a Valentine's Day gift." All in all, this should be our first Valentine's Day. ”
Knowing that Han Qingli is a little white rich and beautiful, there is no shortage of anything in life, and the gifts given to him are not necessarily expensive, but they must be ingenious, Chen Dongyang thought for a while and said, "How about you try the snacks on the side of the road later." ”
Han Qingli likes this gift, and keeps nodding his head, looking like I'm going to eat it openly, which is very cute.
There are many people visiting the mall at night, and there are also many people selling snacks on the roadside.
Before Chen Dongyang went out, he only ate a bowl of Lantern Festival cooked by his grandmother, and he was a little hungry, it seemed that Han Qingli didn't eat at night, and the two of them 'barbecued meat' in one hand and 'stinky tofu' in the other, eating and shopping.
In fact, the two of them went out shopping, that is, for fun, and there were not many things to really buy.
Walking down half a street, there were not a few shops, and Chen Dongyang's stomach was bursting.
But in order to eat, I have to continue shopping.
Passing by a Metersbonwe clothing store, this brand of clothes is specifically aimed at the tastes of young people, and it has been popular in small cities for a while. Originally, the two of them didn't plan to go in, but Han Qingli saw from the outside window that there was a set of clothes inside that looked very good, especially suitable for Chen Dongyang to wear, so he pulled him in.
After trying it in the store, Han Qingli bought it directly.
Then I passed by the next clothing store.
But whenever Han Qingli thinks that the clothes that look good on Chen Dongyang's body, they will buy them with money.
Walked around and down.
Han Qingli didn't buy a single piece of clothing, but paid for Chen Dongyang to buy several sets of clothes and shoes.
Chen Dongyang felt like he was eating soft rice.
