Dai Hui was alone in the bedroom, leaning against the bed in a daze.

Her head was full of Dai Wan's crying in the hospital, her hands wrapped in white gauze, the red liquid that vaguely seeped out of the gauze, the drip hanging on her other hand, and the antipyretic patch on her forehead.

Dai Hui thought of Yuan Wan's thoughts, as well as the face outlined by the vicissitudes of life, the eyes of the old age, and a nightmare in his mind.

Looking at the blue sky outside the window, I saw the window that was wide open and the hot wind was blowing in, did it go down from there......

Will the world be quiet?

There was a sharp knock outside the door, Dai Wei wiped the corners of his eyes, and then slowly stood up, opened the door, turned into the living room, and then walked to the entrance, standing behind the door for a long time.

"Why are you here?" As soon as the door opened, Dai Hui saw the sweat sliding down his cheeks.

Qian Sheng held the door with one hand, beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks, and when he saw Dai Wei at home, he calmed his breath, leaned against the door frame, raised his hand to wipe the sweat, "Come and see you." ”

"I'm fine," Dai Wei said slightly, her hand still on the doorknob, and she broke out in a cold sweat with anxiety.

"That'll be fine, I'll go back to class," Qian Wei turned and left.

"Hmm." Dai Hui only responded gently.

Halfway through, Qian Sheng turned around and leaned against the wall of the corridor, "Go to my house on the weekend, the flowers at home are about to bloom." ”

"Hmm," Dai nodded slightly.

"I'm leaving." Qian Sheng said this, but still stood there for two minutes.

"Hmm," Dai Hui still stared at him. His eyes were dark, and he couldn't see a trace of other emotions.

"Gone." Qian Sheng moved his steps, this time he was really going to school.

"Well," Dai Hui also gently closed the door, and couldn't see his figure, so he quickly lowered his head again and walked back to the bedroom silently.

Dai Zhao came out of the kitchen and unbuttoned his apron, "You should go to school, or you'll be late." ”

Dai Hui was agitated, and looked up at Dai Zhao suddenly, "I see." ”

There were still ten minutes before the afternoon class, and Dai Hui slowly took his schoolbag and slowly left home.

"Hey......" There was a long sigh in the room, Dai Zhao walked into the balcony, took out a cigarette and lit it, and slowly exhaled the smoke ring.

The smoke swirled around him, dissipating little by little, leaving only a smoke-eater with a soul.

As soon as Dai Hui went out, as soon as he arrived on the first floor, he saw Qianli who had not left yet, "Why are you ......?"

"Leaves," Qian Wei paused, his nose was a little itchy, and he bothered, "You can bear with it for a while, and you will be fine in middle school." ”

Dai Hui nodded and did not speak.

Middle school, these two words, have always been what Dai Hui is looking forward to.

Dai Hui went to Qiansheng's house on the weekend, and the moon flowers in the backyard bloomed, a large red and bright patch, as well as some flowers that could not be named.

"What are you looking at?" Qian Sheng leaned over and whispered beside her.

Dai Hui was looking at a pale white plant dotted with some pink flowers, and her little hand went to remove the dead leaves on the top of the branches, "Well, take out the leaves inside." ”

Qian Sheng smiled and did not speak.

"What are you laughing at?" Dai was puzzled.

Seeing that he was still laughing, Dai Hui threw the dead leaves in his hand on Qiansheng's body, "You are still laughing." ”

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore," stopped laughing, Qian Sheng took the leaves off his body, saw Dai Xian on the side digging with a small shovel, and walked over to him, "What are you doing?" ”

"I just want to play with the soil," Dai Xian raised his head to look at Qianyi, "There are earthworms in the soil, you can take them to fish." ”

"Fishing?" Qian Sheng was dizzy for a while, he held his forehead and cried and laughed, "Are you used to playing with other children in the village?" ”

"Hmm," Dai Xian lowered his head again to dig for earthworms, and the earthworms they dug up were all placed in the small iron bucket next to them.

Dai Xian was there digging for earthworms, ignoring Qiansheng's smile.

Far away, Jiang Lao had already heard his laughter, which was very hearty.

Jiang Lao carried some vegetables and snacks in his hand, pushed his bicycle and walked over and rang the doorbell at the door.

Jiang Lonely couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the villa where Qiansheng lived now, would he be lonely or scared if he lived alone in such a big house?

Qian Cheng came to open the door and saw that there was a crucian carp still jumping in a plastic bag in his big bag, scraped off the scales, and had been disemboweled.

"What are you doing with these?" Qian Sheng helped him hold the bicycle.

"Come here to borrow the kitchen to cook, tomorrow weekend, I won't go home," Jiang Liao smiled shyly, and scratched the hair on his forehead with some embarrassment.

Qian Sheng looked at the vegetables in his hand, thought for a while, and then nodded, "Okay." ”

"Leaves, come and help me," Qian Wei looked back at Dai Leaves, who was still dealing with the dead leaves among the flowers and plants.

"Okay, wait for me," Dai Hui found out that Jiang Lonely was coming, she saw him standing in front of the door, most of the Coke in his hand was drunk, and a Coke bottle shook in her eyes.

"You're here too?" Dai Wei asked very idiotically, she patted the dust in her hands, and stood there a little overwhelmed.

"Let's go, let's go inside," Jiang Lone looked at her, just smiling slightly.

It's all time when they all have their own secrets, Jiang Lonely thought like this, and was about to walk into the house.

Dai Xian had already packed up the small shovel and the small iron bucket, covered the side of the bucket with a thin layer of soil, and walked to the sink on the side to wash his hands.

Dai Xian saw Jiang Lonely looking at him, and was slightly stunned, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's okay," Jiang Lonely smiled lightly, and a sour feeling appeared on his face.

Dai Xian changed his slippers before entering the house, and when he saw that Jiang Liao was still standing outside, he asked again, "Cousin, what are you doing standing outside?" ”

He didn't answer and didn't answer, and the moment Jiang Lonely stepped into the house, his heart was inexplicably pinched.

In the kitchen, Dai Hui sat on a high stool, in front of him was a small basin with the water spinach he had just chosen, pushed the small basin aside, picked up the spatula and the potato, and the potato skin slowly came out of the other end of the spatula and landed firmly in the trash can.

Qiansheng was washing vegetables in the vegetable washing pool, and noticed a message coming from the mobile phone that had been muted, and every time it was a slight shock, mute was completely useless.

Qian Cheng picked up a towel to wipe his hands, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, took out his mobile phone, glanced at it, and then called back again, saying something very quiet.

Jiang Liao saw it, it was a smartphone that had been on the market recently, silvery-white, and it was shining with a layer of light under the faint halo.

Qian Sheng hung up the phone and walked to the kitchen, saw Jiang Lonely standing there, and pointed to the sofa, "You rest first." ”

"I'll help you," Jiang Lonely rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward to pick up the corn that had not yet peeled off the husk, but was stopped by Qiansheng.

Qian Sheng smiled brightly and put on the posture of the master, "You came to my house and brought the ingredients, I'll cook." ”

Jiang Lonely couldn't find the words after thinking about this for a long time, so he had to smile reluctantly, "Okay." ”

He went to the couch, found a place to sit down, and saw Dai Xian eating ice cream.

Dai Xian took a small spoon and scooped it into his mouth little by little, and when he saw Jiang Lone, he pursed his lips and smiled, "Cousin, do you eat?" ”

Dai Xian's words fell, and I saw that a bottle of ice Coke was already on the coffee table.

Jiang Lao looked up and saw that it was Dai Hui.

Dai Hui stood next to the coffee table, still with a cool feeling in her hands.

"Leaves," Qian Yuan called to her in the kitchen, "come and help me peel corn." ”

Dai Wei smiled at Jiang Liao and pointed in the direction of the kitchen, "Then I'll help." ”

Jiang Lao bowed slightly, picked up the ice cola and opened the pull-up ring, his fingertips were a little cold, and he smiled at Dai Hui, "Go ahead." ”

Jiang Lonely leaned on the sofa, he didn't drink much of the Coke in his hand, he glanced at the Coke in his hand, gently put it on the coffee table, and walked to the kitchen door.

"Leaves, do you eat sweet and sour pork ribs, or corn pork rib soup?"

"Corn rib soup."

"Do you eat braised pork or boiled pork?"

"Blanched meat."

"Do you want to put sesame oil in shallots and tofu?"

"Don't."

One question and one answer, Jiang Lonely listened really outside the door.

Every sentence pierced his heart like a needle, and he stood at the door for a while, and he didn't pay attention when someone told him.

"What?" In a trance, Jiang Lonely looked up and saw Dai Hui looking at him at the kitchen door, "What's wrong?" ”

Dai Hui pursed her lips and smiled, and pointed to the kitchen, "Do you want to come in and help get the dishes and chopsticks?" ”

"Well, okay," Jiang was stunned for two seconds before entering the kitchen to help with the dishes and chopsticks.

On the dinner table, boiled pork, corn rib soup, steamed crucian carp, shallots mixed with tofu, cold cucumber, corn roast, a plate of vegetarian fried vegetables.

Jiang Liao saw this, and couldn't get off the chopsticks for a long time, it turned out that the taste of the leaves had changed in just half a year.

Qian Sheng took out a tissue to wipe his hands, and saw that Jiang Lonely didn't move his chopsticks, "What's wrong?" ”

Jiang Lao came back to his senses and shook his head, "It's okay." ”

"I've learned to cook in the past six months, and those time-consuming won't, or Hui Hui told me that it would be the easiest to do this."

Before Qiansheng could finish speaking, Jiang Liao bit his tongue.

The pain on the tip of his tongue made him wake up instantly, and he looked at Qian Yuan.

Qian Sheng was sandwiching a piece of pork ribs full of meat into the Dai Xian bowl, and another piece into the Dai Xian bowl, seeing Jiang Lao looking at him like this, he couldn't help but smile, "Let's eat quickly, and go to the park to play later." ”

"Hmm," Jiang Lone's hand couldn't hold the chopsticks anymore, but he was stiffly clamped, and he was trembling even when he picked up the vegetables.

Dai Hui had a thorn in her heart, and that thorn could never be removed, she watched Jiang Lonely's reaction, and she no longer paid attention to his emotions as she did when she was a child.

Those should be forgotten, Dai Hui's chopsticks poked lightly on the boiled meat, and he sighed a little in his heart.

"What do you want?" Qiansheng served her a bowl of soup, put it in front of her, and carefully picked out the green onions, even the wolfberries that she didn't like to eat the most.

"Huh?" Dai Hui looked up at him, a little puzzled.

"Hurry up and eat, I'll have to play later." Qian Sheng smiled.

Even Jiang Lonely smiled, he glanced at Dai Hui, and his eyes were a little blurry, he didn't fulfill his brother's responsibilities, and he blindly complained and didn't trust.

Dai Xian immersed himself in hard work, and praised Brother Qianyi's cooking skills in his heart.

In the park, Dai Wei sat down on a bench with a child by his side, which of course was Dai Xian.

The milk in Dai Xian's hand was still from Qiansheng's house, he drank it in small sips, and glanced back at Dai Hui from time to time.

Dai Hui was furious by him, so he raised his hand to rub his little head, and did not speak.

Dai Xian's ears were itchy from her rubbing, so he tilted his head and grinned, "Sister, aren't you going to play basketball?" ”

Dai Wei shook his head, "Don't go." ”

"I won't hit you," the voice came from Bai Ahu.

Bai Ahu rushed from behind her to the bench opposite and sat down, still holding a basketball in his hand, and the beads of sweat on his face were dripping like rain, and his chest was slightly undulating.

Dai Wei glanced at him, "I don't want to pay attention to you." ”

"Then who do you care?" Bai Ahu asked rhetorically.

He also smiled pleasantly.

Looking at his smile, Dai Wei looked away.

Bai Ahu didn't want her to be unhappy, so he turned the basketball in his hand, stood up and glanced at Dai Hui, and left.

When Dai Hui turned around, Bai Ahu had already walked a long way, and only his back was getting more and more blurred.

Dai Xian finished drinking the milk in his hand, and as soon as he stood up and was about to throw it into the trash, he saw a beautiful woman walking towards him.

Vaguely feeling very familiar, Dai Xian looked for the shadow of this person in his mind, and went through the people he knew in his mind, a person flickered in front of his eyes, as if he had seen it once, but a long time passed, and some did not remember, only remembered a very vague shadow.

Xiao Xi walked to Dai Hui's side, and it happened that Qian Yi also came over, smelling of sweat.

Qian Sheng first greeted Xiao Xi, "Auntie." ”

Xiao Xi smiled, looked at Dai Hui, who was still in a state of ignorance, and smiled slightly, "Huihui, how are you?" ”

"I'm fine," Dai Hui also smiled slightly, and greeted Xiao Xi politely.

"Well, would you like to go shopping with me?" Xiao Xi said it unhurriedly, and it also gave Dai Hui time to think.

"Hmm," Dai Hui looked at Qianyi's face and left with the woman he had met a few times.

Qian Sheng just sat down on the bench, took out a pack of tissues from Dai Hui's bag, and took a cigarette to wipe his sweat.

Jiang Liao also came over, and when he saw Qiansheng's actions, he was a little angry in his heart, and asked in a low voice, "Who is that person?" ”

The implication is, why did you let her get so close to a stranger?

Qian Sheng looked at him, there was no anger in his eyebrows, but he laughed, "That's my art teacher." ”

"What does this have to do with Leaves?" Jiang was puzzled, sat down to rest, and looked at Dai Xian who was in a daze, "Why don't you ......?"

"I've seen her, but I don't know when," Dai Xian still had some impressions, but he didn't remember very clearly.

All he remembered was the unique scent of gardenia on her.

"This ......" Jiang Lonely was stunned on the spot, looked at Dai Xian, he didn't know the cause and effect, and went to see Qiansheng again, he had a look that was already clear, and he understood at that time.

"Haven't you always wanted to know who the owner of that luxury car is?" Qian Sheng said calmly, but instead of a smug smile on his face, he was afraid.

"I ......" Jiang Lonely was dumbfounded, looking at Qiansheng for a long time without making a sound, just looking at Qiansheng. I hope he can give an answer, but I waited for a long time, and I didn't wait for Qianyi's second sentence.

Qian Sheng crossed his feet in the bench, his hands on his knees, listless, he knew in his heart that this day was coming soon, and he also knew that Hui Hui would accept it, and he believed that she would not accept it.

If he accepts it, how should Qiansheng face Dai Hui next.

He didn't dare to get an answer to this question so quickly.

The answer is too painful.

Jiang Lao saw that he didn't speak, and he didn't ask questions.

I waited there, but I waited for more than two hours, and I didn't wait for Dai Hui to come back.

In desperation, Jiang Lao sent Dai Xian home first, and when he came out again, he saw that Qiansheng was still sitting there, and he didn't move, but he still kept the action when he left.

"So, that's why you ......" Jiang Lao walked up to him and tried to ask him why he deleted the photo.

Before he finished speaking, Qian Sheng nodded.

The reason for Qian Yi's nod was that he didn't want to hide the secret.

It's been so hard to hide for so long.

Qian Sheng was suddenly very comfortable, and his mood was not as lifeless as before, leaning on the back of the chair, looking at Jiang Lonely, with a smile on his face, and even there were stars in his eyes.

He said, "Xiao Lonely, you won't blame me, will you?" ”

"No," Jiang was lonely, and admired his patience.

"That's okay," Qian Sheng closed his eyes, and there was a lot of warmth in his heart, but there was an inexplicable feeling that kept surrounding him, lingering.
