Xue Xuxu held a water glass and casually draped in thick loungewear.

Seeing Xue Jiangshan who came back suddenly, she was really stunned for a moment, "Brother, why did you come back." ”

Xue Jiangshan was also in a trance for a while, and he didn't come back to his senses until Xue Xuxu called him. He put down his suitcase and walked forward two or three steps, and the tall man stood in front of Xue Xuxu, and reached out to pull the clothes that were about to slip off her shoulders for her.

"I'll go back when I'm done." After speaking, he looked down at Xue Xuxu meaningfully, "I'm afraid that if I don't come back, you will have to run away from home." ”

This is, of course, about stalking.

To say, this matter should be Xue Jiangshan's, but Xue Xuxu listened to this tone, how could he be so righteous and awe-inspiring! It seems that it makes sense that she is not happy.

"Have you eaten?"

"Huh?" Xue Xuxu blinked inexplicably, not understanding why Xue Jiangshan asked her if she had eaten as soon as she entered the door, saying that even if she hadn't eaten, it was normal, it was four o'clock in the morning.

Xue Jiangshan ignored her, turned around and walked towards the kitchen; Xue Xuxu naturally followed, then leaned against the edge of the door, watching Xue Jiangshan, who had taken off his coat, pull up the cuffs of his black shirt, revealing his strong arms, taking a pot of water to turn on the fire, and finding dried noodles, shallots, and eggs.

The egg is beaten in the white porcelain bowl, and another pot is boiled here, and the chopsticks are stirred in the bowl and touched the mouth of the bowl, and the ping pong is very smoky; Xue Jiangshan is also skilled, his wrists are flexible, and the buttons of his cuffs are rolled up at his elbows and flickering in front of Xue Xu's eyes by the light.

Xue Xuxu lowered his head and smiled, turned around and put down the water glass, and put his hands on his chest, "Brother......"

"Don't talk." Xue Jiangshan interrupted Xue Xuxu with a calm face.

raised his eyebrows and obediently stopped talking.

Until, Xue Jiangshan served a bowl of hot egg noodles and forced her to take chopsticks.

Xue Jiangshan also cooked a bowl for himself, and sat down opposite Xue Xuxu, maybe he was really hungry, or he didn't want to speak, so he really swallowed his head and ate like a wolf.

Xue Xuxu looked at it, bit his lip and lowered his head to eat.

In fact, even if Cheng Wenqing didn't tell Xue Jiangshan in the past three days, Aunt Li also took the initiative to report Xue Xuxu's situation; It's not as serious as the first night, and I eat only a little food, except for a few words when I tease Dabao, I don't see anything to say.

However, this book is also normal, Xue Xuxu really has nothing to say to others, Cheng Wenqing has a generation gap, and Aunt Li is nagging.

It is said that Jiang Hao came to see it quietly, and left without letting Xue Xu see him, saying that he was afraid that it would be more troublesome to see him.

Xue Jiangshan knew that Xue Xuxu would not seek death and life, so he rushed back after finishing his serious business, and when he saw his sister's pale and emaciated little face, he deliberately put a face on the other party to put some pressure on the other party.

No, Xue Xuxu obediently ate the noodles he cooked, although it was slow, but it was very clean.

Yes, Xue Jiangshan was very satisfied, and took out a piece of paper and handed it over.

Xue Xuxu took it, folded it again, dipped the soup at the corner of his mouth with the edges, and leaned back on the back of the chair after cleaning up, looking straight at the opposite side.

Xue Jiangshan rested his hands on the dining table, the hair on his head was repeatedly tossed by the humid heater, and he was no longer shapeless in front of his forehead, looking a little embarrassed.

It's distressing to watch.

Xue Xuxu bit his lip and tried to scream, "Brother." ”

Xue Jiangshan sighed, raised his head, there was a flickering light in his eyes, and he said tiredly as if he was dumb, "Lifelike, big brother...... I'm scared. ”

The hand holding the clothes tightened, "Brother, don't say it." I don't blame you. Xue Xuxu looked away as if evading, but he still couldn't hide the tears that came out of his eyes.

But there are some things that can be hidden for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Xue Jiangshan knew that Xue Xuxu really didn't understand.

Just these days, when she was alone, Xue Xuxu nested herself in the bedroom and took out all the things that Xue Jiangshan put away for her, and those were all before.

Each object is engraved with one or several stories and memories, which turn people's hearts over and over again, heart-rending pain, hearty pain, and of course, endless sweetness.

Xue Xuxu got up and poured himself a glass of water again, and handed a cup to Xue Jiangshan by the way, and saw the white light faintly visible outside the window, knowing that it was not far from dawn.

She glanced at Xue Jiangshan, "Brother, you can accompany me to see my parents the day after tomorrow." ”

Xue Jiangshan, "......"

Xue Jiangshan didn't speak, raised his head and looked at Xue Xu's thin back in a daze, slowly walked out of the kitchen and turned to the escalator, holding the transparent glass glass and stepping on the stairs step by step, and each step was extremely heavy.

Since it was decided to go back the day after tomorrow, it was naturally to give Xue Jiangshan time to rest, so even if it was difficult to sleep, Xue Jiangshan still lay in his bedroom all day, and stayed until the next day and accompanied Xue Xuxu to prepare a lot of things.

When doing these things, the brother and sister didn't let anyone interfere, but both of them tacitly understood that there was no communication.

Finally came to the day of departure and return to his hometown, Xue Xu got up early in the morning and chose a black tweed coat in the wardrobe, a white crewneck sweater over a black shirt, simple dark jeans, and simple sneakers; He combed a low ponytail again, tied it with a simple black leather band, and didn't wear any jewelry on his body.

When I was ready, I sat quietly in front of the dresser.

She looked down at her phone on the table, where there were two unread marks on the text message.

She knew that it was Wang Hao's.

When she was in the car that day, she said that she would call him when she got home, but she had not contacted him until today, and Wang Hao was worried that there would be a lot of calls and text messages. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xue Xuxu only replied with a text message, but obviously Wang Hao also noticed something, so the contact was not broken.

After staring at the mobile phone on the desktop for a long time, Xue Xuxu finally took it in his hand, easily found Wang Hao's number and dialed it.

It was quickly picked up, "Hey, lifelike? There was a clear hoarseness in his voice that he hadn't woken up in the morning.

"Hmm." Xue Xuxu replied softly.

Wang Hao sighed with relief, and then there was a small sound on the phone, thinking that Wang Hao got up and walked outside the bedroom so as not to disturb his wife Li Lin, because there was still the sound of the doorknob turning.

"Lifelike, what's wrong with you these days?" Wang Hao had to ask, it's too weird, isn't it.

Xue Xuxu smiled faintly, "I'm fine, it's just ......" She sighed heavily, and turned back to the purpose of her call, "Wang Hao, can you find information about a case from twelve years ago?" ”

"What case? It has to do with Liyang. Wang Hao was concerned.

"Maybe." Xue Xuxu is also guessing.

"What is the case?"

"In November 2004, about Jiangcheng Xue Dingfeng."

Xue Xuxu's voice fell, and there was silence over there. Or, if it is quiet, it is better to say that it is shocking!

Wang Hao was silent for a long time before pinching the phone and replying, and then Xue Xuxu naturally cut off the phone.

After sitting for a long time, it was not until there was a slight knock outside the door that Xue Xuxu got up to open the door, and then followed Xue Jiangshan out of the door.

Xue Xuxu's hometown is in a small village on the outskirts of Jiangcheng, and it takes two or three hours to go there, but Xue Jiangshan didn't call a driver but drove himself, so he drove himself and Xue Xuxu.

The car was driving on the highway, and there were some old songs in the car, all of which Xue Jiangshan liked to listen to at that age, and he felt a little less glamorous and a little more excited.

Xue Xuxu, whose head was resting on the glass, looked at the scenery flashing outside the window, listened to those familiar and unfamiliar songs, and did not feel any sleepiness along the way.

That's why three hours is a long time.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the road inside was narrow and uneven, so the brother and sister got out of the car and walked with flowers and things, passing through the rough mud and grass houses or low buildings, and met the inquiring eyes...... The two of them walked silently along the mountain road.

After climbing two small hills, I finally came to the mountainside, and a rather magnificent tomb came into view.

The tomb faces the mountain and the river, overlooking the whole village, and is said to be an excellent location for feng shui, which can bless future generations with blessings and peace. Therefore, this tomb is built enough to match its status, with a black solemn stone stele, a marble platform, a low wall surrounded by it, and a two-headed stone unicorn next to the stone stele.

The inscription on the stele is filled with gold powder, regularly maintained and repaired, and the words on the tombstone can be clearly seen when Shang Wei steps into the low wall, and the two names seem to be very vivid - Xue Dingfeng and Han Yunyun.

"Mom and Dad, I've come to see you with Life. I'm sorry, I didn't dare to come to see you two elders for so many years, it's our unfilial piety. I'm sorry! Xue Jiangshan knelt down with a puff.

Xue Xuxu looked at it, not a taste. In fact, Xue Xuxu and Xue Jiangshan have only been to this cemetery once, that is, on the day of burial, and now looking back, they feel like yesterday, and it is precisely because of this that the two of them can find the location of the grave without anyone's guidance.

Perhaps, the brother and sister have been going back and forth many times in their dreams for more than ten years, or it can be said that they have always stopped here and never left.

Xue Xuxu stepped forward, took out a clean towel and mineral water from the things he brought, moistened it, and squatted on the side of the tombstone to carefully wipe the dusty tablet.

However, every time I brushed a word with my fingers on the towel, it was as if I had been stabbed in my heart, and my head was torn in unbearable pain.

Xue Xuxu suddenly fell, sat in front of the monument, held his head with his hands, and shouted loudly.

"Lifelike!" Seeing this, Xue Jiangshan, who placed the incense candles, hurriedly rushed over and hugged her, "Lifelike, lifelike, what's wrong with you?" Don't stay, we don't stay, let's go back......"

Xue Xuxu, who was holding her head, shook her head, she raised her head and looked at Xue Jiangshan with teary eyes, and asked helplessly, "Brother, why can't I remember, why can't I remember at all!" I really want to remember, why did I forget it...... Brother, I'm sorry, I'm sorry I can't remember! ”
