At two o'clock in the afternoon, Bao Xiaoxing made an appointment with a moving company to move his sister. Previously, she had been looking for a long time to find a suitable rental place for her sister - a farmer's house in the farmer's market. In his early years, Bao Xiaotang lived here when he first came to Shenzhen, and he was very familiar with this place, and he never returned to live here after leaving. Bao Xiaoxing deliberately found this quiet and warm little house in the farmers' market, firstly, to take care of his sister conveniently, and secondly, to let his younger sister recuperate and regain herself in the place where she has the most sense of belonging.

After the moving company quickly moved Xiaotang's things from the Fuchun community to the farmer's house at the south end of the market, Bao Xiaoxing rolled up his sleeves and began to clean up the house for his sister alone. First of all, she cleaned up, from the corner of the wall to the crack in the floor, from the kitchen to the bathroom, she did not miss every dirt, and she worked non-stop with both hands until four o'clock in the afternoon. After the sanitation was done, she began to tidy up her sister's things, making mattresses and sheets, putting clothes in the wardrobe, putting kitchen utensils into the kitchen, and returning them to everyone for daily use...... It was 5:40 a.m. Today is Zhong Li's shop, the children are coming back, it is estimated that they are all hungry, Bao Xiaoxing went all the way back to the shop to cook for the whole family.

After sleeping until 12 o'clock, Zhongli woke up to find that his family was not there, and Hyosung was the only one looking at the shop. He didn't bother to ask, and sat alone in the small living room drinking tea. When the husband and wife have lunch, one is on the counter and the other is on the coffee table, and if it has nothing to do with the shop, you don't ask each other, I don't say much. After the meal, Hyosung only said that he was going to move Tang Tang and left, and it was already 6 o'clock in the afternoon when he came back. Zhong Li was alone in the shop, and he pondered the unambiguous sentence over and over again—it took him an hour or two to think about it.

In the past, Hyosung was so delicate, with more than a dozen catties of rice and had to shout for his help, but now she has to move her sister, but she doesn't ask if she needs her own help for such a heavy job. Zhong Li smoked in the shop in disappointment, one after the other, and it didn't take long for the hut to smoke and smoke away a few individual customers. Zhong Li is too lazy to take care of it, and if he likes to buy it, he can't buy it. He spent too much energy trying to please others in his life, and in the end he ended up in a situation where he was unemployed, isolated, and ridiculed.

Bao Xiaoxing, who returned to the shop, saw the guests coming in and out, and she felt pain and resentment in her heart. Business is already bad, and he doesn't cherish a little bit of oil and water; The family's accounts have long been unbearable, and he still drinks heavily and smokes a lot; Seeing that people are getting old and their homes are about to be separated, he doesn't care about his body, business, or children...... If he wants to break the jar, then break the jar. Bao Xiaoxing gritted his teeth while carrying the dishes, and went into the kitchen to cook without saying a word.

After the museum closed at five o'clock, the two groups of people met and then left the museum together, and after leaving the museum, the children spent a lot of time going to the toilet and buying snacks. Just after the heavy rain outside, the ground is wet and dripping with water, the wind is drizzling, the ground is full of flowers, and the street scene after the summer rain is refreshing and pleasant. It was already half past six when Gui Ying sent Zhong Neng and the three of them to the shop, and then his family also went home. At seven o'clock, I chose a dumpling shop downstairs, and the four of us had dinner in the dumpling shop.

The three adults had just finished eating, and Tsai called and said that he was back from class. Zhiyuan went to the community hospital to return the wheelchair, and Gui Ying waited for the boy while feeding Yangyang at the dumpling shop. Lao Ma sat on the iron chair downstairs in the community, smoking a cigarette, waiting for everyone to open the door and go home.

At almost eight o'clock in the evening, the lights were lit up in the community, and many elderly women poured into the smooth porcelain tiles on the ground in a blink of an eye. The music began to play, and the woman in the lead danced, followed by a dozen or so people behind her. I have heard that the elderly in the city love to dance square dances, and this is the first time I have seen Lao Ma.

More and more elderly women danced, and by half an hour the line had grown to thirty or forty people, including three elderly men. This group of people are all big-shouldered and round-waisted, gorgeously dressed, stiff in action, ugly in action, and the old man and the old lady are all dancing energetically and happily! The old horse can't understand it, it's obviously a weathered old eggplant and insists on pretending to be tender! A few of them were too old to writhe sharply, and the old horses looked nervous, for fear that they would accidentally fall or faint, but it happened that the older ones were no problem - they were really eighty years old, and they were playful when they were old.

Lao Ma wondered: These elderly women, shouldn't they wash the dishes and clean the children at home? Have they been farmers for most of their lives? Why are you so excited when you are in the twilight of your life? Instead of jumping around like this, it is better to eat, drink, smoke and drink and drink to nourish old friends. The old horse's eyebrows were tight, and he really couldn't understand them.

After the two children finished eating, the group went home. In the elevator, He Zhiyuan, Ma Guiying and Tsai Tsai all received a text message from Tsai's head teacher, it turned out that the final results came out, and the teacher informed parents and children to go to school at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning to get the report card. After taking the transcript every year, Zhiyuan and him studied the scores, rankings and wrong questions of each course, and wrote down the results of these discussions, and made up for them during the winter and summer vacations or the new semester of the next year.

At half past eight, Tsai Tsai, who was slumped on the sofa, chatted with Gui Ying about Hu Handian. It turned out that Hu Handian and Tsai Tsai went to that cram school to make up for classes together, and the two were each other's companions. Because the Han Dian was brought by Tsai Tsai, Tsai Tsai's make-up tuition fee was exempted from 200 yuan, and Tsai Tsai told Gui Ying that he would collect the 200 yuan himself. Han Dian's mother's colleague has a daughter of the same age and level as them, and she will also come to make up the class tomorrow, so Hu Handian will also be exempted from 200 yuan. Han Dian proposed to invite the girl to dinner with the 400 yuan, and Tsai made a special trip to ask Gui Ying for this matter...... I went around a big circle to invite the girl to dinner! Gui Ying listened to her son seriously talk about the details of youth, and she felt happy and funny.

After dinner with his family in the evening, Bao Xiaoxing planned to go to his sister's rental house again, preparing to decorate the house for Xiaotang. She had bought tablecloths, curtains, rag dolls, potted plants and other things, and after dinner, she went to decorate the house with her daughter Zhong Xuemei. Xuemei blew a lot of colorful balloons and floated in the house, folded some paper cranes, drew some pictures, and Hyosung brought the small woolen blanket and embroidered landscape cross-stitch she had knitted in her early years to give the hut a color and joy. It was almost nine o'clock when the mother and daughter went back to the store to close the stall, and then went back to their home in the Fuchun community.

After returning home, Zhong Xuemei couldn't help but tell her aunt how to decorate the hut, and Bao Xiaotang couldn't help but shout that she was going to move there that night. Hyosung disagreed, and couldn't bear Xiaotang and Xuemei to plead together, so the three women went to the new house overnight.

After the child was aborted from the hospital, this was the first time Bao Xiaotang came out. After getting out of the car, Hyosung walked in front with his suitcase to lead the way, and Xuemei helped Xiaotang to walk behind. There was still some pain in his body, but for the first time in a long time, the gentle night breeze was blowing, and Xiaotang's heart was inexplicably happy. When crossing the main road of the farmer's market, there were more than a dozen shops on both sides that had not closed, and Xiaotang was happy again.

If you don't come for a long time, it's like being away from home for a long time; Coming back today is like coming home. Bao Xiaotang feels like she is back ten years ago, when she used to go out at 10 o'clock in the evening for supper — barbecue, spicy skewers, dumplings, wontons...... At that time, every night at this time, the snack street at the south end of the farmer's market was brightly lit, and almost every forty or fifty food stalls were open until dawn, and there were not 1,000 people eating supper every night, but 800 people. At this moment, the three of them were walking on this snack street, and there was only a little starlight in the silence and darkness. Bao Xiaotang misses the former snack street and her first love she met on this street.

Because of the breakup, Xiaotang decisively left the farmer's market, determined never to see him again. Now that I'm injured and back here, what I miss along the way is to see him again. The two sat opposite each other at a barbecue stand, chatted about their work and life, looked at each other many years later, and introduced each other's partners or children......

The wet ground made her uncomfortable, the dark alleys made her worried, and the narrow stairs made her struggling...... In an instant, Xiaotang felt that she was alive, because she had forgotten Li Zhiquan and the child along the way, and many beautiful pictures and expectations were born out of thin air in her mind. She is happy to be here, she loves living here as always, and she has been floating away from the farmer's market.

Finally, when she arrived at her cabin, Bao Xiaoxing put down her luggage, stayed for a while and drove home. Xiaotang sat and rested, and Zhong Xuemei packed up the things she brought.

The door is a small shoe rack with their shoes, a small living room when you enter the house, but you see that the sofa, desk, and cabinet are all available, all of which are put for your daily use, the kitchen is simple and tidy, the bathroom is bright and fragrant, and there are a few clothes that my sister washed for herself on the balcony...... The familiar and unfamiliar room was filled with the delicate fragrance of lilies. Xiaotang sat on her sofa, admiring her sister's cross-stitch and niece's creative paintings on the living room wall, stroking her favorite turquoise blanket wrapped in the sofa, and stepping on her sister's newly bought turquoise platform slippers for her. There are more than a dozen colorful balloons piled up in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, a large string of jingling wind chimes hangs at the balcony door, and a pot of endless copper coin grass is placed on the shelf...... Bao Xiaotang smiled.

It turned out that her sister was her home.

Bao Xiaotang was tired, she slowly walked into the bedroom, but saw that the pink cartoon sheets were stacked on top of her summer sheets, and there was an oversized and simple panda on the bed, with her red, green, and green skirt and suspender hanging on the coat hook, and a pot of budding lilacs on the bedside table...... She lay on the bed, as happy as if she had returned home, and the sweetly smiling beauty burst into tears with excitement.

Lao Ma was happy today, recalling the piles and piles he saw at the fair, all of which made him smack his tongue and marvel. The old man's heart was itchy and his mouth was itchy, and he couldn't help but unscrew the lid of the wine bottle, and he drank it alone. Yang Yang slipped a scooter in the living room, from the end of the old horse dining room to the other end of Gui Ying's living room, coming and going. The slightly drunk old man was immersed in the smart and mischievous back of the little fairy, the colorful wheels and the children's voice in his mouth...... In a trance, I seem to feel that life has been sublimated to another realm.

Lao Ma remembered Wang Fuyi, so he stared at Ma Guiying from afar, but his heart gradually became cold.

The closest person to Lao Ma in this family is Gui Ying, but he has been here for so long, and Gui Ying is the one who chats with him the least. There are only a handful of conversations, and most of them are still hideous quarrels. The dazed old horse suddenly realized that he was beginning to need his daughter's attention and care. But Ma Guiying, who was giggling at the phone and chatting with friends all the time, never knew this, nor could she perceive her father's demands for communication.

The one closest to him is the farthest away from him.

The old horse sighed and drank another glass of wine. Then he walked to the living room, intending to have a hearty and happy long chat with her Yingying through the wine. The old horse supported his heavy body, crutches all the way, and sat carefully on the sofa, before he could speak, he saw Gui Ying grinning, fanning his nose with his hand, and then giving the old horse a back.

"Your colleague today, do you know him well?" The old horse opened his mouth.

"Which one?"

"That's the one who got divorced!"

"I used to know it, and then he left, and it was just like that."

Gui Ying stared at her phone when she spoke, and her eyelids didn't lift, and Lao Ma thought that she was still upset about what he was yelling at at the convention and exhibition center. He shouldn't yell in public, he shouldn't have given her face at all, and Lao Ma regretted it a little at the moment.

"This person has a good face, I think it's good!"

"So what...... Do you want to introduce him to someone? Gui Ying twisted his face, puzzled why the old man mentioned a person he had only met once.

"Oops...... Why are you so bad! Ah...... Tsk, according to my observation of him, this man will be very blessed in the future! Lao Ma saw his eyebrows from Wang Fuyi's eyes when he looked at Ma Guiying, but Guiying was dull and married, but it was a pity.

Gui Ying was not happy to listen to the words, she turned her head to stare at the old man, and saw that his eyes were slightly closed, his face was mysterious and strange, his ten fingers intersected, his two thumbs turned around, and there were words in his mouth: "It's a pity...... Oops, it's a pity...... It's not blessed......" Gui Ying didn't understand what he meant, so she just thought that the old man was drunk, and then pulled the child back to Yangyang's house.

After Yangyang returned to the room, she measured it with her eyes, and found that the palm-sized piece of land in the house could not carry the speed and elegance of her colorful high-end three-wheeled scooter at all, and she couldn't hold back to come out and slip away, so the child came out alone. After a few laps, she slipped up to the old horse and looked at her grandfather curiously—her facial features were sleeping, but her two thumbs were moving. Old Ma felt that someone was looking at him, and suddenly opened his eyes, and he was startled.

"What are you doing?" Yang Yang is holding the sofa in one hand and the front of the car in the other.

"I'm chanting." Old circus sayings.

"Are you angry because my mom doesn't talk to you?" Yangyang grabbed the loss of the old horse just now.

"Hmm."

"Then I'll tell my mom to go!" Yang Yang turned around and wanted to fly away.

"Oops...... Come here! "The old horse hooked his hand.

"What for?"

"What are you going to do?"

"Tell my mom ......"

"What are you talking about?"

"Say you don't get along with her...... You're not happy if she doesn't talk to you! ”

"Then if you don't talk to your dad, will your dad be upset?"

"Uh-hmm" Yang Yang fluttered her eyelashes, looked up at the ceiling, and she couldn't think of an answer for a while, and then looked at the old man and said, "No! ”

"Then if your mother doesn't talk to grandpa, will grandpa be upset?"

"Hmm...... I don't know! "Honest and sincere.

"Hmph, haha......" The old horse, who intended to play with the child, saw that he had not succeeded in deceiving him, and smiled to himself.

"Grandpa, you're okay, I'm leaving!" Yang Yang said goodbye solemnly with a childish breath.

"Good, good!"

"Uh......h Woo...... Woo......" The little boy imitated the sound of the locomotive, and slid all the way back with the car roaring.

The old horse woke up with a smile of three points. After seeing the little doll out of his sight, the extremely tired old man lay directly on the ground, and after three minutes he snored like thunder. The sheets were not covered, the pillows were not padded, and the whole person slept on the mat in the living room with his limbs spread out and bare. An ordinary day is coming to an end, at this moment Tsai is playing with his mobile phone in the room, Gui Ying is curled up on the rippling bed to brush the circle of friends, Yangyang puts down his favorite scooter and sits in the pile of toys and yawns, everyone stays in their most comfortable place.

He Zhiyuan's most comfortable place will always be his desk. Zhiyuan entered the room at eight o'clock today, he quietly closed the door to isolate the real world, turned on the lamp and computer, opened the diary and notebook, lifted the pen, sipped tea, recalled today's various stimuli, the mood is so complicated that it is difficult to speak, and thousands of clues can only be put into the pen.
