63. Chapter 63

This rare blizzard lasted for a long time, and she didn't go out much during April, and when there was really nothing to eat at home, she went to a nearby store to buy somen noodles and eggs. Because the roads have been covered by heavy snowfall, it is difficult to transport vegetables, and the price of vegetables has risen sharply these days. When I went back in April, I bought some greens by the way, and these greens are not cheap.

On the way back, there were workers on the side of the road sprinkling salt or shoveling snow, and when April turned around, there were large and small footprints on the snow-white ground, like graffiti drawn on clean silk.

She silently withdrew her gaze, stepping on the rustling of snow, she walked back step by step.

In the cramped room, her boiled green vegetable and egg noodles seemed to be the only source of heat, and they were steaming hot. April rubbed her stiff fingers, held the noodles, and ate them in a big gulp. After eating, she drank all the noodle soup, and her body slowly warmed up.

On a snowy day for half a month, she hadn't dried the quilt for a long time, and at this time, she got into the damp two-layer quilt, and her body still couldn't stop shivering. She was too cold, and her reaction was a little sluggish, and she silently muttered in her heart: Winter, winter, hurry up, and wait until next spring, she can ......

And so, day after day, the blizzard finally passed, and the sun slowly peeked through the clouds.

When the sun came out, April took out all the quilts and sheets on the bed for the first time to dry, and also dried a few of his winter coats. Looking at the remnants of snow on the trees outside, April breathed a sigh of relief.

The land was covered in snow, and the silence around her gave her the illusion that she was alone in the whole world. And now, listening to the lively voices outside, she finally has a feeling of being alive.

In this way, the time came to the middle of January slowly, and there was still more than a month before the Chinese New Year.

Li Yu meant to let her go to his house for the New Year, but April always felt that the New Year was a day for family reunion, and it was a little inappropriate for her to go. Li Yu was not reluctant, and only said that he would come to her as soon as the New Year was over.

Maybe it's a difference in mood, April plans to have a good New Year, and can't be as hasty as last year. Some days before the Chinese New Year, she also went out of her way to buy couplets and firecrackers.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, she bought a lot of dishes, roughly estimated to have a dozen dishes, and she worked from early morning to nearly noon to finish this large table of dishes. It was time for the landlord to knock on the door, and April had just put the last big dish in the bowl.

When the door was opened, the landlord smelled the scent, poked his head in, and then asked her with a smile if there was a guest coming, April smiled and did not speak. The landlord handed her the candy in his hand and explained that it was his father's 70th birthday, and April thanked her and said a few words of blessing, and after the two exchanged condolences, the landlord left.

Closing the door, April opened the box, took out a piece of candy, peeled off the candy wrapper, and put the sugar in his mouth.

Well, it's sweet.

After chewing the hard candy and swallowing it, a large bowl of rice was served in April, and a hearty meal was served on this hearty dish. After finishing the meal and putting away the dishes and chopsticks, she took out the newly bought couplets and glue, carefully set the orientation, and put the couplets neatly.

Seeing the pasted couplet, I finally had the atmosphere of the New Year.

After returning to the house, she shrunk in the warm quilt, slept well, recuperated her spirits, and watched the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala for a while. I slept until seven o'clock, and when I woke up, it was already dark, and April went back to the kitchen to heat up the noon dishes, and then held the bowl and stayed in front of the TV on time.

After eating, she shrunk back into the quilt, there was still some residual warmth in the quilt, she wrapped herself in a Santa Claus, sat upright, and stared at the TV for a moment. In this way, time passed minute by minute, and soon, it was the time for the host to report the number at zero o'clock.

April took out his mobile phone, found Li Yu's column, and lightly clicked the dial button when the host shouted 7.

At this time, the host has already reported to 6.

In her ears was the dialing sound of the mobile phone, she followed the rhythm of the host, reported the number in her heart, and when she reported to 1, the phone was connected at that moment.

"Li Yu, Happy New Year."

On the phone, there are firecrackers, children's laughter, and all kinds of laughter and laughter constitute a lively scene of the New Year. April listened attentively, her heart was beating a little slowly, and she seemed to hear Li Yu's breathing, one after another.

At the moment when a loud fireworks bloomed, Li Yu's voice also followed, clear and peaceful, "April, Happy New Year." ”

April leaned on the window, looking into the distance, and the bright fireworks in the sky in the distance lit up her eyes.

And almost at the same time, there was a person who also broadcast a number.

"Sorry, the phone you dialed is on a call, please call again later."

On the phone, the mechanical and cold female voice repeated over and over again, Gu Qingyan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, her eyes staring at the night deeply, and she was silent. When there was no more sound on the phone, he put the phone down and clutched it in his hand.

It's so late, who will Lin April call? But who she calls is about him.

Why did he, at this zero o'clock, think of her?

Gu Qingyan turned around and pressed his back against the cold glass, the hazy light shrouded his eyes, and there was a kind of indifference revealed from his bones. He was silent for a long time, and finally, he took out his phone again and dialed a number.

The camera returned to Z City, and after April hung up the phone, but in a few seconds, a phone call came, she looked at it, and answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Happy New Year, April."

The corners of April's mouth pursed a smile, "Xiao Li, Happy New Year." ”

"It's been another year, and in the blink of an eye, we're all going to be thirty." Xiao Li sighed a little.

"yes, time flies." She was sixteen years old, as if it was just yesterday.

"Those of us, I don't know if it's okay, we are all running for three and are not married." Xiao Li was a little self-deprecating.

April sensitively sensed something, and hesitated to speak, "What's wrong?" ”

"Just now, I was single again." Xiao Li pretended to be relaxed and said.

April was startled and silent, she said to Xiao Li on the phone, "What's wrong with you and Feng Jin?" ”

In her impression, Feng Ying is a generous and decent woman, very cultivated, and very compatible with Xiao Li.

"She just called me and said she was going to break up with me." Xiao Li's voice was a little lonely.

For Feng Ming, it can only be said that he met the right person at the right time, two marriageable men and women, and the conditions match in all aspects, and he has long been ready to enter marriage. And just now, Feng Ying called him and told him that she had met someone who liked her very much, and she wanted to give it a try with him.

He always thought that Feng Ying was a mature and rational woman, and never thought that one day, she would tell him that she wanted to try a love-based relationship. It's a bit ridiculous, she's not young anymore, she doesn't have that much time to have a relationship that may not blossom. He had proposed the idea at that time, but Feng Ying smiled lightly. She told him that when she was young, she patronized her career and missed a lot of scenery along the way in her life, and this time, she didn't want to miss it.

Finally, Xiao Li asked April on the phone: "You say, is love really indispensable in marriage?" ”

April didn't know how to answer, love, for her was too ethereal, she couldn't touch it. She could only say what she thought in her heart and share it with him, "I don't know if it's so important, two people, being able to support each other to go on, this is a factor I have to consider." ”

Xiao Li was silent for a while and asked, "Is this why you chose Li Yu?" Don't care if he loves you or not? He knew that the question was a bit sharp, but he asked it anyway.

April looked up at the TV, and the Spring Festival Gala was coming to an end.

She came back to her senses and said in a very light tone: "Li Yu is very good to me, that's enough." ”

After hanging up the phone, April couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and then, she put on an overcoat, found the newly bought firecracker, and walked out of the house with her head buried and her shoulders hunched. Although it was early in the morning, because it was the New Year, most of the people in the community were lit up. April stomped her feet, slashed the matchstick stiffly, and when the firecracker in her hand rushed into the sky, she subconsciously covered her ears and hid under the eaves.

She craned her neck, listened to the booming explosion, and smiled.

Finally, she went back to the house, turned off the TV, washed up briefly, and filled a bag of hot water with hot water by the way. As she lay down on the bed, she carried the hot water bag in her arms, and the hot temperature passed through her clothes to her skin, and she finally felt less cold.

Li Yu knocked on April's door in the early morning of the third day.

At that time, April was sleeping when she heard a knock on the door, and she thought it was the landlord in a daze, so she wrapped the quilt around her and went out to open the door. When she saw that it was Li Yu, her eyes widened in astonishment, and she looked at him in a daze.

Seeing her stupid, Li Yu smiled lightly.

"Won't you invite me in for a seat?"

April turned her body halfway to the side, got out of the way, and Li Yu walked in beside her. Although she was wrapped in a quilt, she could still feel the cold air coming from Li Yu's body.

"Why are you here?" She opened her mouth to say something, and finally asked.

Li Yu turned around, lowered his eyes and looked at her deeply, then leaned down and hugged her through the quilt. He didn't know what was wrong, after receiving that blessing call from April, his mood fluctuated a little, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. He had an impulse that he hadn't had in a long time, and with this impulse, he got on the train to Z City the next night.

"April, I missed you, so I came to see you." There was tiredness in his voice, but also a hint of imperceptible attachment.

April stood silently for a moment, gently breaking free from his embrace, and covering him with the quilt she had warmed up. She was wearing thick cotton clothes and pants, but she didn't feel cold.

"You sit down first, and I'll pour you a glass of water." She said a word to Li Yu, turned around and went to the corner to make him a cup of hot ginger soup.

Li Yu silently looked at April's back from the side, and there was unprecedented tranquility in his heart.
