Chapter 41 Visiting the Temple Fair
When Shen Cheng returned home, Liu Tianci had already gone out, and the whole room seemed lonely and desolate, he had a very strange idea, did Liu Tianci hate him too much, and hated him so much that he didn't want to spend the Spring Festival with him?
Thinking about it like this, he was very sad in his heart, he was old and old, and he would end up like this, and he suddenly remembered what the old man often said: Self-inflicted, don't live!
Maybe it's about himself, who wasn't so violent at the beginning, and who can treat a pair of stepsons lovingly, maybe he won't end up in such a sad end, and regretting it at this time is useless.
Just when he was blaming himself, the door opened, and Liu Tianci came back with a large pile of New Year's goods in his hand.
Seeing Liu Tianci, Shen Cheng was surprised and delighted, and immediately stepped forward to pick up Liu Tianci.
Liu Tianci glanced at Shen Cheng expressionlessly, did not accept his help, and bypassed him back to the kitchen.
When he came out again, he glanced at Shen Cheng's expectant eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't leave you, although you don't treat us well, but at least you gave us a home, you have no children and no daughters, I will also give you a pension, but don't think that we have feelings for you, my sister and I are out of responsibility!"
"My mother repeatedly told us to treat you well before she died, but I can't treat you well, today is the New Year, let's spend it together! I'll go cook in a moment! Liu Tianci said that, he went back to the room again and closed the door.
Shen Cheng stood in place in a daze, looking at the closed door, still reminiscing about Liu Tianci's words in his mind, the taste in his heart was uncomfortable, but this was also the best ending for him, who called himself inferior to a beast at the beginning, and left a very dark impression on them?
Thousands of lights are lit, firecrackers are heard one after another, and every household is full of joy, only Shen Cheng's home has no couplet, and the atmosphere is cold.
The dishes on the table are hot, the dumplings are steaming, only the people are cold, Liu Tianci still doesn't say a word, just eats his own.
There was warm wine in the corner of the table, which was also prepared by Liu Tianci, he always remembered Liu Shimeng's words, although there was no emotion, but he also had more than ten years of nurturing grace.
Shen Cheng didn't drink, he also ate food silently, at this time, he and the past were like two people, once domineering and rude, at this time he was like a wronged child, occasionally looking at Liu Tianci secretly with his eyes.
Zeng Lihua looked at the sleeping Liu Shimeng, as if he saw an epiphany blooming quietly at night, so quiet and so beautiful.
He couldn't bear to disturb Liu Shimeng's sweet dream, but he couldn't bear to let her sleep like this.
"Shimeng, go back to your room and sleep when you are sleepy!" Zeng Lihua gently patted Liu Shimeng's shoulder.
Liu Shimeng moved slightly, barely opened her sleepy eyes, rubbed them, and said softly: "Is the performance over?" ”
"Hmmm! The performance is over, the New Year is over, let's sleep in the room! "I have left the painting.
Liu Shimeng nodded, stood up and walked back to the bedroom, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly turned around and glanced at Zeng Lihua.
"Zeng Lihua, thank you!" Liu Shimeng closed the door and closed the door with a confused face.
She sat back on the bed, turned on her phone, and countless messages flashed out of it.
"Sister, I wish you a happy new year! I'm fine, this is a red envelope for you, not much, just a good sign! ”
"Sister, you think this dish of mine is great, right?"
"Sister, I found that Shen Cheng seems to be different, I bought a lot of things today!"
Liu Shimeng looked at the various photos sent by Liu Tianci and couldn't help laughing.
"Happy New Year, Mr. Liu! I wish you happiness and happiness in the new year, this is a red envelope to accept, if you refuse, I will be very disappointed! ”
"I hope that Mr. Liu can regain his beautiful smile, the first time he looks very cute and beautiful, and the spirit of the amusement in the sky will also be gratified!"
"Mengmeng, Happy New Year! Godmom and goddad miss you very much and hope you are healthy and happy! ”
"Happy New Year, Mr. Liu! I love you! ”
"Mr. Liu, I wish you a happy new year!"
Liu Shimeng looked at the blessings in the message, as well as those red envelopes, her heart was full of emotion, she thought she was a lonely and lonely person, but looking at these blessings, she suddenly found that there were so many people who thought about her and loved her.
Liu Shimeng replied one by one and then flipped out a photo, the boy in the photo was still handsome and sunny, and his face was always happy and confident.
Liu Shimeng gently touched Yule's face through the screen, but it was always the screen that was touched, and on such a festive reunion festival, the two people she loved the most had left her, and she could no longer hear their voices or touch their bodies.
"Rejoice, Happy New Year! You okay? Did you miss me? ”
"Amusement, I miss you so much, miss you! Sometimes, it's so painful that I want to forget you, but if I forget you, how can I live? ”
Liu Shimeng lay on the bed and covered the quilt above her head, tears already blurred.
It only takes a moment to fall in love with someone, and it takes a lifetime to forget someone, which is too costly.
Zeng Lihua turned off the TV, returned to its nest with luck, and returned to the room to lie on the bed tossing and turning, a happy day, because of Liu Shimeng's company.
Since breaking up with his schoolmate, he has refused to make contact with women other than Xiao Xin, especially suitors.
He has always thought that he has rejected love and hated love, especially women's love, until he met Liu Shimeng.
He makes a living from interpretation, and he can naturally distinguish one or two when he sees people for the first time, and the moment he sees Liu Shimeng for the first time, the flower that has withered in his heart for a long time blooms again.
He asked himself again and again, did he really like her? Are you really in love with her?
Starting today, the new year has begun, is it still to live as in the past? Does it still keep the lake deep in your heart undisturbed?
Maybe not, the lake of the heart has already rippled, should we move forward bravely?
Thinking like this, sleepiness welled up in my heart, and I fell asleep unconsciously, and just like that, I passed quietly and peacefully.
When I woke up again, it was already three poles in the sun, and Zeng Lihua hated the sunlight outside, so I pulled the curtain to block it, the sunlight was gone, but the sleepiness disappeared.
Zeng Lihua secretly vowed a long time ago that as long as there was a holiday, he would sleep in the middle of the day, and the sea would be dry, but the reality was different from his imagination, and he still reluctantly got up.
When the door was opened, Liu Shimeng sat quietly on the sofa reading a book, and when she saw him, she smiled slightly and said, "Hi! Happy New Year's Day! New Year's greetings to you! ”
"Oooh! Happy New Year, do I need to prepare a red envelope! Zeng Lihua had unkempt hair on top of the painting, and instinctively arched his hands to greet the New Year.
"You also give me New Year's greetings, we are negative, so we don't need red envelopes!" Liu Shimeng said with a smile.
"It's too stingy, isn't it?" Zeng left the painting and spread out his hands.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and wash up and eat! It's all the hot meals from last night! Liu Shimeng urged.
"Okay, right away!" He had left the painting and went into the bathroom.
By the way, Shimeng, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, do you want to go out for a walk, there is a temple fair today, I heard that the last incense today will keep you safe for a year? Zeng Lihua held out his head with a toothbrush.
"Yes! It's hilarious! Liu Shimeng said.
"Have you been?" Zeng Lihua asked.
"Hmm........." Liu Shimeng couldn't help but think of amusement in her mind, and she was disappointed.
Ten miles long street, incense, people are boiling, people are wearing bright and festive clothes to walk on the temple fair street.
Liu Shimeng and Zeng Lihua strolled down the street, looking at the various toys sold at the stalls and liked them very much.
They have one thing in common, that is, they both like antique little things, and they fiddle with a delicate and antique pendant in front of the stall.
Zeng Lihua saw that Liu Shimeng liked it and bought it without hesitation.
"Just look at it, you don't need to spend money to buy it!" Liu Shimeng said distressedly.
"It's good to take it home and see it, I will buy everything I like, especially these small things, I don't have any resistance!" Zeng Lihua fiddled with the small toys in his hand.
"Huh!" Liu Shimeng smiled helplessly, thinking that rich people love to spend money indiscriminately
"It's so good, I like to visit the temple fair the most, every year is busy, finally passed Chinese New Year's Eve, but also rushed back, every day on the road, now I can walk with you at the temple fair, I feel like I am dreaming, such idle time is too precious!"
Zeng Lihua looked at the pedestrians who were also slowing down, and was moved.
"Yes! Life is like this, it keeps running like a pointer, the pointer is not tired, and people will be tired! Liu Shimeng said.
"Shimeng, we have arrived, there is a pine tree in front of us, it has a long history, you see there are a lot of red belts hanging on it, let's also go and write a wishing sign, okay, write the dream we want to realize the most, how about it?"
"Good! Let's go! Liu Shimeng was the first to step forward, walked around the pine tree, and finally stopped in one place, because she found the sign that she had made a wish with Yule.
After the sun and the wind and rain, the wishing sign at this time was already dilapidated, and the handwriting had long been blurred, but she could still distinguish what was written: "May a person's heart be white and not separated."
She still remembers every picture at that time clearly, and even has the gentle eyes of Yule, as if it was like yesterday.
"Shimeng, what's wrong?" Zeng Lihua saw Liu Shimeng standing under the tree in a daze, feeling a little strange.
"Ahh It's nothing! Liu Shimeng came back to his senses and smiled reluctantly, and walked back to Zeng Li's side.
Zeng Lihua carefully handed Liu Shimeng a sign, and he also took out one.
He looked at the sign carefully, thinking about the wish that needed to be written down.
In the end, he wrote on the signature, "I wish to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated!" ”
Liu Shimeng had nothing to ask for, and she didn't know what to write for a while.
She secretly spied on Zeng Li's painting, but unfortunately Zeng Li's painting was tightly covered and couldn't see it clearly.
In the end, Liu Shimeng wrote, "May Liu Tianci succeed in his studies and career!"
