Chapter 50: The New Year
Chapter 50: The New Year
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve. On this day, a lot of people came to my family, all of them were uncles and aunts from my own family, as well as those cousins, cousins, cousins.
My father and mother set up three tables in my family's hall, that is, the living room, and beckoned everyone to sit down, and a few of us younger people began to serve tea and pour water, and send some melons, fruits, snacks, etc., and everyone happily prepared to have a New Year's dinner.
Bai Feng didn't come out because she was helping my mother in the kitchen, and Zhou Hui and Li Huanhuan didn't take the initiative to help because they weren't familiar with my family's relatives. Dongfang Yu and I, as well as the younger cousins and cousins, took on chores such as serving food and rice.
A New Year's dinner, after eating for almost three hours, everyone can be regarded as a happy guest.
After dinner, my father played cards with Uncle Dongfang and the other two uncles, and some people played chess, landlords, etc., and everyone played together.
Li Huanhuan, Zhou Hui, and Dongfang Yu and I were looking for an opportunity to sneak out and find a place where no one came to practice shooting.
After a few days of practice, we have basically mastered the essentials of shooting, but we are not yet accurate. Anyway, Li Huanhuan and I brought back enough bullets, so we were ready to pile up "sharpshooters" with bullets. A lot of people have said that practice makes perfect, and some people say that bullets feed sharpshooters, so that's what we're going to do.
Dongfang Yu was originally very afraid of shooting, but with the encouragement of Zi Li Huanhuan, she actually learned to shoot, but after all, she started a little lower than us, and so far, she can only barely shoot, as for accuracy, it is not at all.
Zhou Hui is the one who makes rapid progress, she seems to be born with a sharpshooter, no matter what Li Huanhuan teaches, she can learn it as soon as she learns, and she is naturally very accurate. Even Li Huanhuan praised her as a genius and a good material for being a sniper.
It's a pity that Zhou Hui has passed the age of enlistment, otherwise he could really try to be a sniper.
I learned to shoot because I was forced to shoot, probably because of the pressure, and within 30 meters, I can now shoot without missing a shot. Although it is not necessarily the bullseye that hits every time, it is still guaranteed that every bullet hits the target.
Li Huanhuan was very dissatisfied with me, because I was short-sighted, and I had to wear glasses for everything, and I couldn't find the direction at all when I took off my glasses. Li Huanhuan also said that if I hit 30 meters, I was barely qualified, but I lost my head when I exceeded 30 meters, which was a big taboo, and I was asked to stand at a distance of 50 meters with a pistol to practice shooting, and every bullet must be on target.
The target we use for practice is homemade, that is, we draw a target on the trunk of a big tree, and then measure the distance with a tape measure, and this is it.
I practiced at a distance of fifty meters, and at first I would always deviate very far, and Li Huan was anxious to beat me with the wooden stick in her hand. I was also in a hurry, I didn't expect that there would be such a big gap between 30 meters and 50 meters.
Li Huanhuan stared at me, gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't take it seriously, I'm really going to beat you!" ”
I was very aggrieved, my eyes widened and I looked at the target, holding the gun with both hands, feeling that my eyes were going to bleed, but I still couldn't guarantee that the gun hit the target.
Li Huanhuan yelled at me anxiously: "With your heart, you know how to use your eyes, so how can you do it?" ”
I was also anxious: "You just know, you can show me, I don't believe you can do it." ”
Li Huanhuan smiled, stepped forward and pushed me away, took out the pistol she was carrying, and fired three shots in a row without looking at the target.
I watched with wide eyes as all three bullets hit the target, and two more hit the bull's-eye. I no longer doubted Li Huanhuan's shooting skills, so I quickly stood in place and began to understand with my heart.
Li Huanhuan originally wanted to take the opportunity to get angry, but seeing that I was so serious, he just looked at me for a while, and turned around to teach Dongfang Yu and Zhou Hui.
It wasn't until it was almost evening that we went home. Then my father said to me, "Why have you been playing for so long?" I didn't come back to help, and dinner hasn't been cooked yet! ”
A few of us hurried to help, I was going to help prepare the table or something, but Bai Feng called me to the kitchen.
My mother and Aunt Guo were busy, Bai Feng pointed to the various dishes that were almost piled up on the kitchen board, and said to me, "Take them out, there will be them in a while." ”
I hurried to serve the food, and by the way, I also called out to my cousins and cousins to help. Bai Feng was embarrassed to ask them for help, but I could.
We played until 12 p.m. on this day, and only after the firecrackers were set off to welcome the New Year, everyone dispersed.
At dinner in the evening, Li Huanhuan took out the red wine we brought back, and drank a little high with Zhou Hui, Bai Feng, and Dongfang Yu.
So when they fell asleep, their mother and Aunt Guo Si were done, and they had time to sit down and rest.
I poured a cup of tea for each of them, thanking them. Then I also took a bath and went to bed, because tomorrow there will be relatives who will come to pay New Year's greetings, so I have to get up early to prepare.
The Chinese New Year is only fun when it is lively, so I didn't feel bothered or anything, but I was very happy, and when I went to bed, I sang my favorite songs while walking.
I don't know if my voice is too ugly, when I passed by Li Huanhuan's room, she suddenly opened the door of the room, glared at me and said, "What is the noise?" If you have the energy to sing, pour me a glass of water! ”
I knew she was drunk, not serious, but she must be thirsty, so I nodded, turned and went downstairs, and poured her a glass of water.
Li Huanhuan sat on the bed, watched me bring water, pointed to the bed where she was sitting, and said, "Sit down and talk for a while." ”
I was a little weird, but sat down anyway.
Li Huanhuan was a little drunk at night, and when he spoke, he was not the same as usual: "Why are you avoiding me?" ”
Listening to her very direct words, I smiled: "What do you mean that I am avoiding you?" How can I hide from you? ”
Li Huanhuan moved his body, leaned against me and said, "Then you obviously know that I like you, why do you want to be entangled with Zhou Hui and them?" Aren't you afraid that I'll get angry and ignore you again? ”
I was stunned and whispered, "What are you talking about?" Beware of misunderstandings when others hear them......"
Li Huanhuan suddenly hugged me, buried his head in my arms, and said loudly: "I'm not afraid that others will know!" Tell you, I've identified you in my life, and you don't want to be ...... If you don't want me, I'll join the Wanlong Club again, and I'll deal with you alone! ”
I wanted to push Li Huanhuan away, but I was hugged by her very hard, and I didn't push it away after pushing it several times. I had to say carefully: "We are friends, others will misunderstand when they see it, don't be like this, okay?" ”
Li Huanhuan raised his head and looked at me, and tears slowly appeared in his eyes: "You don't like me?" Then why are you still nice to me? You...... You ......"
I was taken aback and couldn't help but exclaim, "When will I be okay with you?" You ......" Speaking of this, I suddenly couldn't continue, because I saw that Li Huanhuan's tears had already flowed down her cheeks.
Li Huanhuan said a little sadly: "No matter what, I like you." I don't care, if you don't like me, I'll really go to the Wanlong Club, and you won't regret it when the time comes! ”
I felt that this matter was very serious, and after thinking about it, I said, "You know, I am still a student, and the school does not allow students to get married, so I ......"
Li Huanhuan suddenly interrupted me: "I can wait!" It's true...... When you graduate, it's not too late for us to get married! ”
I smiled wryly, knowing that she had misunderstood me: "That's not what I meant...... You, I treat you as my friend, so ......"
Li Huanhuan smiled: "Friend? Now I'm a friend, and I love being your friend. When you graduate, I'll marry you. As for your other friends, I won't care about it now, but after we get married, I won't let you do it again. You remembered for me that my words count. ”
I still wanted to say something, but Li Huanhuan suddenly remembered something and said, "That one is named Chen Jing, who are you?" ”
I was stunned, thinking that Dongfang Yu must have told her, so I had to say: "It's the one I like, but she doesn't like me." ”
Li Huanhuan pursed her lips and said, "You are really, I like you so much, you are still picky, that Chen Jing doesn't like you at all, and you still pester others...... That's what you're called...... It's called a slut. ”
I was overwhelmed by her scolding, and I did feel that there was nothing wrong with what she said, so I could only smile bitterly and say: "Men like to be cheap, isn't this sentence often said by you women?" I'm also a man's ......."
Li Huanhuan said very disdainfully: "What's so good about that Chen Jing? You tell me I'm going to do better than her. ”
I feel like I'm going crazy, what are these questions, and how do I answer them? And different people are different in every way, how can they be compared with each other? Could it be that if someone else is a duck egg face, your original melon seed face can be changed and become a duck egg face?
So I just closed my mouth and didn't speak, just looked at Li Huanhuan. Li Huanhuan was a little drunk, and her cheeks were flushed, looking particularly beautiful and charming. I couldn't help but look at it and I couldn't help but be stunned, forgetting to speak, and forgetting to move.
Li Huanhuan seemed to notice that I was staring at her, and she actually looked at me motionlessly, and slowly showed a smile. This smile was even more charming, and I couldn't help but say, "It's beautiful!" ”
Li Huanhuan listened to my words, smiled more charmingly, and slowly raised her head, allowing me to see more clearly.
I smelled a very nice fragrance in my nose, and I also saw the pupil in Li Huanhuan's beautiful eyes. I was so intoxicated by all of this that I could barely extricate myself.
Li Huanhuan stared at me for a while, and suddenly said, "Is it good-looking?" ”
I was startled, and then quickly lowered my head, blushing and not daring to look at her again.
Li Huanhuan smiled and stood up happily: "I thought you were not moved by me at all, it turns out that you are also a ...... Hehe...... If you like to see me, I'll give you a chance. But now you should go to bed, otherwise, your Sister Hui may have to clean you up. ”
Li Huanhuan's words were very ambiguous, but I couldn't refute them, so I quickly escaped from Li Huanhuan's room and flew into my room.
Li Huanhuan is very beautiful, and she is also a very mature woman, and for a student like me, a woman like her is the most attractive. In the past, I only cared about running for my life, but I didn't pay too much attention to this, but now when I get in close contact with her, I find that she is really charming, and it also makes me feel a sense of loss of self in an instant.
I don't know if it's the legendary feeling of being in love, but it's really amazing, and it's something I'm addicted to.
I shook my head vigorously to regain my consciousness, then collapsed on the bed, pulled over the covers and prepared for bed......
This night was destined to be a sleepless night, and I didn't go to bed until late at night, but I was troubled by Li Huanhuan, and I just stared at it and waited for dawn.
So when I woke up early the next morning, I felt groggy and completely lost my usual energy, and I didn't want to move when I sat by the fire.
My mother thought I had a cold, so she hurriedly brought me cold medicine and asked me to drink it earlier to prevent it from becoming serious. I knew I just hadn't rested well, so I took advantage of my mother's lack of attention and put the cold medicine back.
Bai Feng was the second to get up, and she gave me a very strange look, and the corners of her mouth showed a hint of smugness.
I know she still has a lot of hatred for me, but she didn't do anything to me because she was so close to my mother. Now I will definitely be happy to see my weak look.
I didn't want to say anything to her, so I continued to sit in my chair and doze off as if I didn't see her.
Dongfang Yu was the second person to get up after I got up, she yawned and walked past me, just glanced at me, and then said: "Brother, help with things, just get up and doze off, not ashamed!" ”
I had to get up and help prepare breakfast.
Dongfang Yu stared at me very strangely, nodded thoughtfully, and then sneered, and said deliberately: "Staying up late at night and sleeping during the day, that's a night owl." ”
I didn't feel any strength in my body, and I didn't want to speak, so I ran away in a hurry. Dongfang Yu was behind me and there was another sentence of "weak-hearted guy", saying that I almost fell directly into the snow outside.
The cold air outside made me sober up a lot all of a sudden, and thinking of what Dongfang Yu just said, I was really a little weak-hearted.
After taking some firewood into the house, Dongfang Yu was still waiting for me, and when he saw me, he sneered: "What did you do that is unseemly, you can't walk steadily?" ”
I wanted to shout out loud, but I still held back, and just said to Dongfang Yu: "Don't talk nonsense, I had insomnia last night and didn't sleep well." ”
Dongfang Yu deliberately pretended to be very strange: "What's going on?" Insomnia at such a young age? Did Chen Jing call you and say that she didn't pay attention to you anymore, so you lost sleep? ”
Only then did I understand what Dongfang Yu meant, and I couldn't help laughing: "What Chen Jing called?" When did she call me? Don't guess, hurry up and help make breakfast. ”
Dongfang Yu sneered and said, "I'm not going." I'm not hungry, if you're hungry, do it yourself. ”
I knew that she was really angry, and hurriedly tried to find a way to persuade her: "Don't be like this, today is the first day of the new year, how can you be angry?" Be happy, otherwise you won't be happy this year. ”
Villagers value the omen, the first day of the new year, to be harmonious, happy, and then in this year the family is harmonious and happy.
When Dongfang Yu heard what I said, she stopped being angry, turned around and went to help her mother make breakfast. But when she was leaving, she glared at me fiercely, as if I owed her hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Sending Dongfang Yu away, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to go over to help, when I saw Li Huanhuan coming over with sleepy eyes, and after seeing me, he said: "It's all you, so I didn't sleep all night." ”
As soon as she said this, I hurriedly stepped forward to cover her mouth, and hurriedly said, "Is it okay to be quiet?" Do you want everyone to misunderstand? ”
Li Huanhuan really didn't wake up, and pushed my hand away in a daze and said, "What, what is the misunderstanding?" Didn't we just talk together last night, and we didn't go to bed, what's the big deal? ”
I quickly covered her mouth again, for fear that she would continue to talk nonsense.
Li Huanhuan pushed my hand away and said loudly, "What are you doing?" You want to kill me, you? ”
Her shout immediately attracted the attention of many people. Dongfang Yu was the first to run over and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Is something wrong? ”
I was about to explain, but Li Huanhuan already understood what was going on, so he said, "I'm joking with Jincang, it's okay." ”
Dongfang Yu didn't believe it, but when he saw that I was nodding my head, he didn't say anything more.
Li Huanhuan also thought of something, hurriedly pulled Dongfang Yu and left, and said: "Yu'er, let's go help make breakfast, and I'll make a good dish for you to taste in a while......"
Dongfang Yu was pulled away by Li Huanhuan, and I was temporarily liberated.
