Chapter 140: Youth
(Girls' Literature) In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, thousands of homes were brightly lit, and the joyful laughter on the TV leaked through the cracks in the doors of the surrounding residents, making passers-by who were hurrying on the street feel particularly lively and lonely.
Xia Yao suddenly turned to Lin Ruoshui, "Master, why do so many people choose to settle in Yunliu City?" ”
"This is a small city in the south of the Yangtze River that is livable, with a good climate, good air, and few people. Lin Ruoshui said comfortably.
"That's why? There are several small cities like Yunliu, why is it Yunliu? ”
"You're drilling again, girl? You can't suspect that your classmate's grandfather has something to do with what happened to your mother, right? He raised an eyebrow, "You're too suspicious, too." ”
"That's not it," she shook her head awkwardly, "I just think it's strange, how can such an inconspicuous small city attract the attention of you big people in the capital, in my impression, Yunliu is really ordinary, but it turned out that even an old man who picks up waste is from a Lian family, and the old doctor who opened the clinic is a famous doctor registered in the capital, you say that this world is not mysterious?" ”
"yes, the most mysterious thing is that there is such a freak as you here." Lin Ruoshui touched his chin and sighed.
"Master, are you praising me? Why do I feel weird every time you compliment me? Xia Yao grinned.
"You're cheap and good," Lin Ruoshui glanced at her.
"Master, don't talk about these useless things, let's go back and set off the fireworks, it's almost twelve o'clock!" Lin Xiaofang was the most impatient to listen to them talk about this, and kept looking at his mobile phone to urge.
The three of them hurried all the way, and finally arrived home before midnight, and carried the boxes of firecrackers and fireworks from the attic.
"I know about this firework!" Lin Xiaofang looked excited, "It's very good-looking!" I'll put it! ”
"Bang Bang Bang"
Fireworks flew in the sky, Xia Yao stood beside Lin Ruoshui, feeling extremely peaceful and warm in his heart at this moment, this is the happiest Chinese New Year's Eve in so many years.
The New Year's bell is about to ring, and the whole country is filled with firecrackers and fireworks, but there is one place that seems to be so quiet that it seems out of place in the whole world.
A delicate teenager in his teens looked at the computer screen and slowly smiled slightly, "It turns out that it's really her, it's a little interesting." ”
The computer screen glowed a faint blue light, reflecting his face, which made people feel particularly eerie.
"Little Wu, it's almost zero, let's go downstairs and incense." A friendly voice sounded outside the door.
"Okay, I'll be right here." The young man's face immediately changed to a gentle and submissive expression.
"Don't always stay in your room for the New Year." Seeing him open the door, the young man who had been waiting outside the door patted him on the shoulder with a gentle smile, "Everyone is playing downstairs, you are always so unsociable, grandpa will be unhappy reads();." ”
"I see, big brother." The boy nodded, looking introverted and wooden, with no intention of changing.
The young man sighed helplessly, and then carefully admonished, "Second Aunt is back, she has always disliked you, you should be careful later." ”
"Hmm." The boy nodded, and responded in a voice like a mosquito.
"Why is it so slow? If you still want to be urged and invited, do you really think you are a character? ”
As soon as the young man and the boy came downstairs, a provocative voice came.
The hall was very lively, and a large family sat together in twos and threes chatting about the things they were interested in, and was not affected in any way by such a discordant provocation.
There were no mood fluctuations on the boy's face, and he raised his eyes to look in the direction of his father, the man with a perpetual cowardly look was sitting in the shadow of the corner, looking like a cloud of air, without any sense of existence, and the people around him automatically ignored his presence, and walked past him and chatted very happily.
"Grandpa, everyone's here." The young man walked up to the old man sitting at the top and said very respectfully.
The old man bowed slightly, and stood up with the support of a young woman who was dressed very dignified beside him, and the young man hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him and walked towards the ancestral hall.
The originally noisy living room was instantly quiet, the atmosphere became solemn and solemn, the men followed the old man in turn in silence, and the expressionless young man lowered his eyelashes, and walked at the end obediently, but there was a trace of ridicule in his eyes.
The exquisite and luxurious ancestral hall was filled with the scent of fine sandalwood, but he felt sick for a while, as if he smelled the most stale and disgusting corpse stench.
The tablet of the ancestors of the An family overlooked their descendants from above, they stood so high, I don't know how many people's bones they stepped on, and I don't know how much unsightly darkness was covered with such a gorgeous appearance, he raised his eyelids and looked directly at the tablets that revealed an unbeatable atmosphere, and there was an undercurrent surging in his eyes.
"Alright, you guys go play by yourself, I'll go back to the house and rest." After the incense was applied, the old man waved his hand casually and returned to the room with the support of the young woman.
The atmosphere in the hall was even more relaxed.
"Little Five, stop." Seeing that the young man was going back to the room again, the woman who couldn't provoke him just now called him with disdain, "Why are you so rude, and you don't say hello when you see your elders!" What does a person hiding in his room do sneakily doing during the Chinese New Year? ”
The young man stood obediently in front of her and called in a low voice, "Second aunt." ”
"Fourth brother, how do you teach the child, look at his unsuccessful appearance, where does he look like a child of our An family?" An Zhifang, who was called the second aunt, said sharply.
"Second sister, you see that the fourth brother himself is like this, how good can the child he gave birth to be?" An Zhijing looked at An Zhili who was sitting there with a mocking look and a clay statue Bodhisattva.
"The fourth brother and the fifth brother are also quite pitiful, they will become like this because the fourth sister-in-law left early, and there has been no woman to take care of them for so many years, I think it is better to find another fourth sister-in-law for the fourth brother, after all, there must be a woman in the family to be decent, second sister, don't you say?" The woman who spoke had a gloating expression on her face and snuggled up to her husband, An Zhijing.
"Who wants to marry him like him?" An Zhifang glanced at An Zhili with disdain, this fourth brother was just an illegitimate child, and he even entered the door of An's house in a grand manner, since the day she knew that he existed, she hated him from the bottom of her heart.
"I have a good sister, and she is beautiful and kind, I want to introduce her to the fourth brother, maybe it will be a good marriage." An Zhijing's wife Tian Bao'er said with a smile, even if An Zhili is not welcomed in the An family, but he is also a genuine child of a family, the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, if it can be climbed, let alone enjoy endless glory and wealth for a lifetime, it is simply a person who has attained the Tao and ascended to heaven.
