Chapter XXXVII
At nine o'clock in the morning, Yin Yin completed the discharge procedures and followed Xu Zhangxi back to Yin's house.
Her things are all there, in fact, most of them can be dispensed without, Xu Zhangxi will buy her new ones, but she still has some documents and souvenirs that she wants to take away.
At the door of Yin's house, Yin Yin stood behind Xu Zhangxi.
I haven't been back to this house for a long time, and I don't dare to go in easily.
's father died and was buried, and everything was handled by Xu Zhangxi.
The Yin family is scarce, and the only few relatives have settled abroad, and the incident happened suddenly, and when they returned to Sioux City, Yin Zhengfu had been buried in the Yin family cemetery.
Yin Yin stood at the door, feeling that this home was gloomy and a little terrifying. She didn't dare to go in alone, she didn't dare to face an empty home. Or, perhaps, it can no longer be called a real home, but just an empty shell of the memories of home.
Inside, there is no dad and no mom.
There is no laughter, no three meals a day, no dad and friends chatting inside, and no mom baking flower arrangements with her girlfriends in it.
Here, no longer her home.
"You must bring it, and as for other daily necessities, I will buy you new ones. ”
"Hmm. ”
"Go ahead. ”
"Will you come in with me?"
"Then I'll accompany you, let's go. ”
Xu Zhangxi is holding Yin Yin's key in his hand, and the Dior bear ornament on the keychain is an old thing from many years ago. Holding it in your hand, you lie.
Xu Zhangxi opened the door, Yin Yin lowered her head and closed her eyes, her feet were fixed and refused to take a step in.
When he turned around, he saw such a broken Yin Yin, the six gods had no master, and he was at a loss. On the way here just now, she was no longer quite right, but she covered it up well, and Xu Zhangxi underestimated the seriousness of the problem.
"Yin Yin, you go to the car and wait for me. ”
He gave her the car keys and patted her on the shoulder.
"But you don't know where my stuff is. ”
"Then tell me where the location is, what to take, and tell me on the phone?"
As he spoke, he took out a cell phone and handed it to her.
"I'll go in, aren't we going to see your mother and eldest brother later? It's rude to go too late, let's go up quickly." ”
"And got in?"
"Hmm. ”
"The servants at home are on vacation. ”
"Well, what about her?
"Yellow Flower...... She's not here either. ”
Yin Yin didn't care about the whereabouts of the yellow flower. Huanghua is only in her early thirties this year, and she is a concubine, she will not have nowhere to go, and she will not be widowed for her father at a young age, so she doesn't care to spend the rest of her life guarding an empty house here. There is no need, and there is no possibility.
However, Yin Yin felt that it was not worth it for his father.
Yin Zhengfu was very kind to Huanghua before his death, except for not being able to meet all her needs in husband and wife life, he never responded to all other needs, and Huanghua betrayed so blatantly, Yin Yin really couldn't have a good impression of her.
As a woman, Yin Yin understands Huang Hua's feelings, and can even understand some of her sufferings, but Yin Yin despises Huang Hua's practice of eating and lodging in the west, which is really bullying and shameless!
She looks down on her and definitely doesn't want to cross paths with her again.
After entering the door, Xu Zhangxi and Yin Yin did not change their shoes. The doors and windows in the house are closed, the air is not circulated, and it is a little stuffy.
Next to the entrance, on a table against the wall, there was a bouquet of flower arrangements, all withered, and the leaves and petals were all scattered on the ground.
Xu Zhangxi took Yin Yin to bypass Yin Zhengfu's portrait, and kept holding her shoulder, not letting her look casually. Yin Yin is sensitive by nature, and she actually knows what the reason why Xu Zhangxi took her around from the other side of the living room.
This kind of small detail often makes Yin Yin fall. After so many years of knowing each other, Xu Zhangxi took care of her silently, and this is how she gave her heart little by little.
After passing through the Buddha platform, Yin Yin wanted to put incense on Yin Zhengfu.
But in fact, she didn't dare, and she didn't want to really face this cruel reality, so she resisted. Along the way, she kept silently saying in her heart, "Dad, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”
Yin Yin followed Xu Zhangxi all the way, like an ostrich, and when he encountered ups and downs, he would rather bury his head in the sand.
But after all, this is a place where I have lived for more than ten years, and some traces are indelible. Yin Yin can't avoid it if he doesn't want to see it.
went up to the third floor and pushed open the bedroom door, Yin Yin had a strong sense of separation.
Xu Zhangxi is too, he used to come to Yin Yin's room to mess with her, and he was as familiar as his own room, and he knew everything where to put it. Even Yin Yin's secret gadgets, he knew them well.
In this room, there are many memories that the two of them share.
Xu Zhangxi and Yin Yin have shared many happy things here, and even shared things that are inconvenient to talk to others. In short, they have a heart-to-heart here.
Yin Yin went to the cloakroom and pulled a suitcase, opened it and placed it in the middle of the room, and then looked around, she never thought that she would leave the place where she had lived for a long time with such a gloomy mood.
Xu Zhangxi sat on her dressing stool and leaned against the back of the chair, her knees apart, her elbows propped up on her legs, and she looked at her like this.
The last time I was here was on the eve of parting two years ago.
At that time, the Xu family moved out of Sioux City for some reason, and Xu Zhangxi always thought that this place had nothing to do with him. Now that I have stepped into this room again, the intersection of the two blank years in the middle seems to be compressed and filled. Seven hundred days and nights really seem to have become a very short moment, and the discomfort of missing someone is replaced by the joy of being reunited and lost again.
Yin Yin opened almost all the doors and drawers, the large wardrobe, the storage cabinet with twelve drawers, and the glass door of the bookcase...... She stood at the end of the bed, staring blankly at these things, suddenly not knowing what to bring. Standing outside the door, chic can do nothing, really standing here, only to find that it is extremely difficult to part.
Yin Yin put all his documents into a crossbody bag, and the rest of the things were in place, and then sat at the end of the bed in a bit of frustration.
Xu Zhangxi didn't urge, but he couldn't stand it after sitting for a while, he got up from the white dresser and walked into the cloakroom to help her.
The style of Yin Yin's room decoration is European, you can see architectural painting and sculpture elements everywhere, the main color is ivory white, when Xu Zhangxi walked through the aisle, Yin Yin looked at his back and thought of ancient Greek sculptures with perfect shapes.
The ancient Greeks believed that man shared the same form and personality as the gods, and he was such a man with a perfect body. Thinking about how he treated her well, Yin Yin left a very special position for Xu Zhangxi in her heart, she gave up her body and mind.
Xu Zhangxi entered Yin Yin's cloakroom with his front foot, and Yin Yin followed in, but he didn't get in or tightened, and as soon as he entered, he saw a picture that made people's hearts explode.
Xu Zhangxi looked ascetic, but he picked up a peach-pink lace corset in his fingers, held it up to Yin Yin, and asked her with the smile on his face like a man looking at a woman: "Long time no see, the previous B minor is now C major?"
Yin Yin's face was so ashamed that her face was crimson, and she snatched it with a smile. The two stood side by side, silent in front of a drawer of girls' clothes. I wanted to laugh, but I couldn't help it.
In fact, when he hugged her last night, Xu Zhangxi found out that it was indeed the eighteenth change of the female university. The little girl who used to be jerky has grown into a beautiful little woman, pure and sexy, and lovable.
Yin Yin is very much like her mother who died early, with white skin and beautiful appearance, and a slender waist in her hand. She is beautiful, so beautiful that people dare not take her lightly, which is also thanks to her eyes and posture, not the style of bewitching and coquettish, but the combination of a good girl and a cold beauty.
Xu Zhangxi looked cold, in fact, his blood was strong, Yin Yin was still a child who didn't understand personnel, but he also blushed and his heart was beating, and it was so hot in the cloakroom that a layer of fine sweat appeared on the back of their necks.
Yin Yin took out a cloth bag from the second drawer and filled seven or eight sets, and then only took school uniforms, pajamas and two or three sets of casual clothes for daily wear.
"Okay, the rest of the clothes, third brother, can you find someone to help me move over?"
Xu Zhangxi: "I might as well buy you a new one directly, and put the old one here." ”
Yin Yin: ?
It's not bad, it's just too expensive.
"Then I'm going to owe you money again......"
Before Yin Yin finished speaking, he actually regretted that he had touched Xu Zhangxi's scales again, he didn't like that he had mentioned money to him too many times, and he didn't like her to divide him too clearly.
She timidly glanced at the face of someone next to her, and found that he was just smiling, not knowing what he was laughing at, and holding a camel-colored hat in his hand, as if he was not angry, but also as if he was sulking.
Yin Yin swallowed his saliva, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, first smoothed the fur of the big cat in front of him. She explained: "I mean it's a waste, a lot of the clothes in the cabinet are newly bought, and they haven't been worn once! The tags haven't been removed! If you don't wear them, they're outdated, isn't it a waste? Am I right?"
Xu Zhangxi snorted coldly, and it seemed that he had successfully turned the page.
Who knows, he covered the hat in his hand hard, Yin Yin's eyes darkened, and the next second he spoke in a teasing tone: "Forgive you for the last time, and there will be a next time...... Hmph!"
Xu Zhangxi lowered his head, his lips were close to Yin Yin's ear and kindly reminded: "Lie on my knee to receive the reward, understand?"
After speaking, Xu Zhangxi went out like no one else, leaving Yin Yin messy in the wind on the spot.
"Tyrant!" Yin Yin scolded angrily in his heart, his face was red and hot with shame, and he didn't know whether it was better to resist or expect, he had been talking like this lately, which made her unbearable.
When he left the cloakroom, Yin Yin exhaled the breath that was holding in his chest, his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand, he stumbled a few steps, and fell into the pile of clothes, wanting to cover his ears and never listen to him anymore.
When she came out of the cloakroom in a good mood, Xu Zhangxi was standing in front of her desk, as if she was studying something with interest.
And the drawer on the far left of the desk was opened, and all the secrets were hidden inside, Yin Yin felt a burst of horror, and almost rushed to Xu Zhangxi in one step, snatching something from his hand.
"Don't look at it!"
After Yin Yin snatched the letter, she looked at it weakly, which one he was looking at, and the first date of the letter was October 31 of a certain year, and she almost fainted.
The last day of October is Xu Zhangxi's birthday, and you can imagine what Yin Yin, an infatuated silly girl, said in the letter, the whole article is embarrassing from beginning to end, and it is known by others, the kind that has no face.
It was precisely because the content was too private, just a random expression of a certain mood, that she received it herself after writing it and did not send it. From the time she put pen to paper, she didn't plan to write it to Xu Zhangxi at all, nor did she think that there would be a day when she would see the light.
Right now...... She wanted to die.
Whining...... Yin Yin whimpered, unable to raise his head.
Simply, she ran to the bed, covered herself with the quilt, and acted as a turtle with a shrunken head.
Xu Zhangxi kept laughing, he was still enduring it at first, but he couldn't bear it anymore later. From laughing silently, to laughing softly, to laughing loudly, he laughed so hard that his shoulders shook and his chest resonated.
He hadn't laughed so happily in a long time, and he couldn't remember the last time he had laughed so happily. In the past two years, he has not really laughed, and even the number of forced laughter is only a handful.
Part of the reason is that he left Sioux City and left Yin Yin, and part of it is because he has been solving some tricky things and is mentally stressed every day. He's been sick and he's forgotten what it's like to be happy.
People who crawl out of the quagmire know that they have someone to worry about when they are in their darkest, and that feeling is very complicated. In fact, Xu Zhangxi's nose was sour, and he didn't want to be known by Yin Yin, so he didn't lose his temper when he controlled it.
Looking down, there were several such thick letters in the drawer, no seals, no stamps, no sender and address, not even a very clear name, let alone a name, and the whole text was only referred to by the third person "he" and the first person "I".
Although the things Yin Yin wrote were vague, they had all done and experienced them together before, and Xu Zhangxi knew at a glance what she was writing.
