Chapter 13 The years are quiet
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't remember how she got back to the dormitory, but she only remembered that the soles of her feet were fluttering all the way. It's like being dizzy before drinking two bottles of beer, and it's like stepping on a soft cloud.
Returning to the dormitory in a leisurely manner, Su Xiaoxiao fell on the bed with a big grin and giggled vigorously.
Yan Yimo still clearly remembers her preferences.
On her 10th birthday, she made a wish that she could go on an outing with Yan Yimo when she grew up. My brother drove a black Wrangler, she drove a red Wrangler, and in the back seat sat their dogs, the fluffy kind, and then ate BBQ in the suburbs.
If it weren't for seeing Yan Yimo's car today, I'm afraid Su Xiaoxiao himself would have forgotten this wish.
At the moment when Yan Yimo stretched out her arms like her, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly brightened. In fact, they both clearly know how important each other is to them. He's still him, she's still her. And they are still the same people they once were.
Time may change, but we will never change.
Yan Yimo said that he had a three-day vacation this time, and asked Su Xiaoxiao if he had any plans arranged in advance for the weekend.
Su Xiaoxiao thought about it for a while, and it seemed that there was no other arrangement except for the Korean barbecue with Saskayo. "No, what's wrong?" Finally met Yan Yimo again, Su Xiaoxiao decided to recolor relatives and friends, and asked sweetly on the phone.
"Then I'll pick you up downstairs in your dormitory at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning and take you to Algonquin for two days. Sending you back on weekend nights. ”
"Really!"
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and her voice couldn't hide her joy, "You don't have to work!" Brother, where is Algonquin? Is it the place where you see the maple leaves? Ahhhh So what should I bring? Should I bring snacks other than clothes? Should I bring a water bottle? Ahh
Yan Yimo patiently listened to Su Xiaoxiao's long list of "self-talk", and laughed in a low voice, "You just take your little head with melon seeds." ”
"Hehehehe," Su Xiaoxiao smiled, biting her lower lip for a while, and her heart was so sweet that she was about to flow honey. "Hmm... Brother, did you see me today? When? I don't know. Su Xiaoxiao on the other end of the phone seemed to suddenly think of an extremely important question, "I'm afraid you'll forget me, cough, I'm worrying." ”
"Hmm."
From the first time he saw Su Xiaoxiao a long time ago, his eyes were full of her.
She cried, laughed, angry, and shy. The sudden departure six years ago made Yan Yimo regret that he couldn't leave his contact information, and since fate made them reunite, this time she would definitely not let her slip away again.
The next day, Su Xiaoxiao and Saska finished breakfast together, and then took their backpacks to the door of the dormitory and waited for Yan Yimo.
Afraid that he didn't eat breakfast, Su Xiaoxiao also specially brought him a cup of warm milk and a freshly baked croissant, which was warm and steaming in his hand. When I left the dormitory door, I happened to bump into Hathaway.
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao and the black Wrangler again, Hathaway's face sank significantly, but she quickly adjusted her expression and said with a smile, "Morning, are you going out?" ”
"Well, I'm going out for two days on the weekend."
Su Xiaoxiao answered truthfully and didn't think much about it.
"Ouch, it's the first time I've seen you don't act in unison with those girls, and it looks like you've found someone else to play."
Catherway smiled and pushed Su Xiaoxiao's arm, with a little jealousy in her words.
This made Su Xiaoxiao very uncomfortable to listen to.
But considering that I still have to be a roommate for a few months, I don't want to say anything, so I don't show my unhappiness.
Whatever she thought, Su Xiaoxiao muttered in her heart.
Yan Yimo doesn't go to work today, so he dresses more casually. The white T-shirt was covered with a navy blue thick knit sweater cardigan, and a mechanical watch with a square surface leaked out of the cuffs. Seeing Su Xiaoxiao, he hurriedly took off his sunglasses, rolled down the window and waved at her.
Su Xiaoxiao ran over with a smile.
Taking the schoolbag in Su Xiaoxiao's hand, Yan Yimo helped her open the co-pilot's door, and guarded the roof of the car with her hands, for fear that she would hit her head.
Su Xiaoxiao bounced into the co-pilot with a hippie smile, waited for Yan Yimo to get into the car, and handed him the milk and croissant that he had just prepared.
"Brother, here you go, breakfast!"
Yan Yimo had eaten it, but he still happily took it, took a big bite of Ke Song and prepared to drive.
cough cough, Yan Yimo, who chewed two mouthfuls of the song, coughed a few times suddenly, and Su Xiaoxiao quickly opened the mouth of the milk cup and sent it to Yan Yimo's mouth. Leaning over to take a look, Su Xiaoxiao patted his head anxiously.
"Ah, I seem to have taken it wrong, this is not butter, I took it as a small pepper!"
Yan Yimo can't eat spicy food, she knows it.
Su Xiaoxiao especially likes to eat the sauerkraut fish cooked by her mother, and she always screams in front of Yan Yimo, and once when Yan Yimo went to Su Xiaoxiao's house for dinner, her mother happened to make sauerkraut fish. Unexpectedly, he was spicy after only one bite of sauerkraut, and drank three glasses of milk in a row.
From then on, when eating, Su Xiaoxiao, who felt that the food would be spicy, volunteered to taste it first, and only when he felt that it was not spicy did he let Yan Yimo put down his chopsticks.
"It's okay," Yan Yimo drank the milk gurgling, "I'm not a child anymore, this croissant is so fragrant, believe it or not, I can finish it?" ”
"I don't want it!"
Su Xiaoxiao snatched Ke Song and ate it first, "Nom nom, it's delicious!" ”
It was about a three-hour drive from L City to Algonquin, and Su Xiaoxiao sang all the way, feeling so good that he was about to fly into the sky. The scenery along the road is extremely beautiful, from L City to Algonquin, the maple leaves along the way from green to yellow to orange to light red and finally to fiery red, with layers of slowly changing colors.
The lodge is deep in Algonquin National Park.
The whole cottage is made of logs. Nature is the most authentic beauty, without excessive embellishment, like the home of the Smurfs. There is also a naturally formed stream in the front yard of the cottage, the water is clear blue, and behind the stream is a large maple forest. There is a small stove in the backyard, two wooden chairs, and a wooden table, which is used for the barbecue of guests.
"Wow! It's so beautiful here! ”
Su Xiaoxiao covered her mouth excitedly and stared wide-eyed.
The chalet is a two-storey structure.
Upstairs there are two oversized rooms, each with a huge bathtub with a view in the bathroom, facing the maple forest outside the window, allowing guests to relax while taking a bath while enjoying the foliage. In the middle of the first floor is a large fireplace, facing a maroon leather sofa; On the left side of the first floor is a semi-open kitchen, Su Xiaoxiao opened the refrigerator, and the owner of the cottage carefully prepared barbecue ingredients for them to eat tonight, and there was a large bag of Rocky Mountain cotton candy and bamboo skewers on the counter. In addition, there is a laundry room, a billiard room or something, everything Su Xiaoxiao can think of here.
The first trip after coming to Canada, it was still with the person I liked, Su Xiaoxiao was beautiful when she thought about it.
The so-called combination of men and women, work is not tiring. It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon after driving all the way to Algonquin, and the two of them took a break and prepared to prepare the materials for BBQ before it was dark.
Yan Yimo is responsible for building the barbecue grill, and Su Xiaoxiao is responsible for skewering the skewers.
Thinking of the appearance of Jackson Y., who gave a speech on the stage yesterday, and then looking at Yan Yimo, who was now smeared by the charcoal fire, Su Xiaoxiao laughed out loud. Yan Yimo looked up at Su Xiaoxiao, Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly covered her mouth, but there was a smile in the corner of her eyes that could not be hidden.
The girl in front of her was wearing an off-white sweater dress, her chestnut hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, and a pair of crescent eyes were crooked with a smile.
I just hope that the hour hand can stay at this moment and not move.
The years are quiet.
Su Xiaoxiao, who had been busy for a long time and had consumed too much physical strength, was still not satisfied after eating a lot of skewers, and stretched out his unfinished little hand to the marshmallow placed on the table, "Brother, give me a marshmallow please!" ”
Su Xiaoxiao has been so stinky since he was a child, and people are crazy.
As soon as I'm happy, I soar in English, and I'm still the same when I go to college.
“ Ok, only marshmallow? No s'mores? ”
Yan Yimo was also crazy by her and indulged her little willfulness.
“Ummm, let me think think. Can I get both?“
Su Xiaoxiao said greedily, licking her lips with the tip of her little tongue, "I am not full!!"
Yan Yimo was hooked by her small movements, and it took a few seconds to react, take a bamboo skewer and hand it to Su Xiaoxiao, roasting them on the fire one by one.
The roasted marshmallow has a crunchy coating on the outside, but the inside is still soft, and if you accidentally stick to your mouth, you can pull out a long white thread if you pull it slightly. After that, you will eat it with milk chocolate and marshmallow on a butter biscuit, and the chocolate cube will melt slowly when it meets the hot marshmallow, and bite down with the butter biscuit.
"Ah~Delicious in the world~"
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but praise and smiled happily.
Yan Yimo took a shower and read that it was still early, so he took a book and sat on the sofa on the first floor to read.
Originally, Su Xiaoxiao was still playing with the bubbles in the bathtub, but when she heard the sound of Yan Yimo closing the door, she quickly washed off the foam on her body, changed into pajamas and prepared to go downstairs.
With Yan Yimo's time, Su Xiaoxiao didn't want to waste a minute or a second.
Yan Yimo was going back to New York after the weekend, he was so busy with work, Su Xiaoxiao didn't know when the next time they would see each other. But don't think about it so much, cherish the moment. Su Xiaoxiao couldn't wait for her hair to dry and followed her to the first floor.
"Brother, it's really super beautiful here, I like it so much, I can live here all the time and watch the maple leaves."
Su Xiaoxiao is still excited, dancing and dancing.
"Okay, you can come whenever you want." Yan Yimo said dotingly, "When I first came to Canada, I was very uncomfortable, and I didn't have any friends. My parents took me to Algonquin for a vacation, and I fell in love with it and thought it would be perfect to show you. ”
"Really~ You still think of me!" Su Xiaoxiao was satisfied, "Sure enough, the two of us have the same aesthetics, and I like it here." I especially like it! After that, the two chatted for a while, and it was ten o'clock at once.
The next day, Yan Yimo took Su Xiaoxiao to the town of Algonquin for another day.
Su Xiaoxiao picked up a lot of cute little souvenirs to take back to Saska, and sent a postcard to Baby Anne.
After that, the two had lunch at a famous century-old steakhouse. The dessert after the meal is lava chocolate cake. As you dig into it, the chocolate flow slowly flows out of the middle, coating the cake with a thick layer of chocolate sauce.
In the evening, they watched the sunset on a small hillside.
At dusk, Su Xiaoxiao and Yan Yimo sat side by side on the slope of a small hill and watched the sun gradually hide behind the maple forest, then disappear, and finally replaced by the moon hanging in the sky. Quietly admiring the view, silent.
Thinking that Yan Yimo would return to New York tomorrow, Su Xiaoxiao was a little reluctant, and her mood was a little low. But she didn't want to open her mouth to save Yi Mo, and she didn't want to affect his work.
Time not only gives us the rings of growth, but also teaches us how to love others better.
After watching the sunset, it was not too early, Yan Yimo took Su Xiaoxiao back to the hut to get the sorted luggage, and prepared to leave for L City. He also had to take a 3 a.m. flight back to New York before he went to work on Monday.
"My favorite snack, you pick a flavor first!"
Before Su Xiaoxiao started the car, Su Xiaoxiao took out a small bag of gummies from his pocket, and the packaging was Sailor Moon.
The five gummies were neatly arranged on the palm of his hand, and Su Xiaoxiao took them to Yan Yimo to choose the flavor first. Willing to share his favorite things with him, Su Xiaoxiao is really precious and easy to say.
She has a set of magical theories: eat sugar when you are sad, and eat sugar when you are happy, sugar cures all diseases and solves all worries.
"Well, peach, grape, lemon, which flavor do you want?"
Yan Yimo usually doesn't like to eat sweets, so he picked a lemon-flavored one and put it in his mouth.
It's really a little girl who doesn't grow up.
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's hesitant taste to eat and her hair crooked, Yan Yimo felt that she was still so simple and cute, except that she had grown taller, nothing else had changed.
"Brother, you see, my mouth can also be transformed into the shape of peach gummies."
Su Xiaoxiao happily chewed the gummy and pursed her pink lips.
Yan Yimo looked at her and smiled lightly, lost his mind, and couldn't help but turn sideways and kiss her.
Before Su Xiaoxiao could react, the faint smell of tobacco mixed with the aroma of fruit gummies entered her heart. Yan Yimo's cold lips gently covered her slightly open mouth, and the sweet and sour taste spread between their lips and teeth.
Su Xiaoxiao's eyelashes trembled slightly, her heart pounded and accelerated, but her brain was blank.
Time is shallow, and autumn is beautiful.
