Chapter 182: She Laughs Like a Child

Xia Chongming remembered that when she was five years old, Su Jin suddenly bought a lot of fireworks during the Spring Festival that year. Those fireworks have been piled up in a corner of the living room since the beginning of the wax moon, which made the young her curious for a long time, and she ran over to count them every day.

Every year, although she looks at the lively fireworks outside the window during the Spring Festival, she has never bought fireworks at home, mainly because she is too young, Su Jin is not at ease to take her to set off fireworks, for fear of hurting the young Xia Chongming.

But that year, Su Jin bought a lot of fireworks and piled them up at home, which also made Xia Chongming very excited, and all he thought was that she could play fireworks with her friends downstairs during the Spring Festival. It's just that while being happy and curious, Xia Chongming still feels a little scared, how to use fire to ignite these colorful things in front of him?

When it was Chinese New Year's Eve, Su Jin dressed Xia Chongming in a red cotton cheongsam with two cute little balls tied on his head. She hugged Xia Chongming out, and when the neighbors saw Xia Chongming's cute appearance, they all cast envious eyes on Su Jin.

Su Jin looked at her daughter's round face, touched Xia Chongming's little nose, and said to her, "What do you see your mother took you?" As he spoke, he raised his other hand and held a bag in his hand, which was full of fireworks that Xia Chongming saw in the living room.

When Xia Chongming saw it, he was very happy in his heart, and he clapped his hands and wanted to break free of Su Jin's embrace, and said noisily: "It's fireworks!" It's fireworks! Mom, will we have flowers in our house this year? ”

"That's right! Mom gives you a lighter in a while, why don't you try it too? Su Jin smiled gently, put Xia Chongming on the ground, and touched her little brain.

Xia Chongming, who was cheering just now, suddenly quieted down, her eyes were full of expectation, but she was a little afraid, she hid behind Su Jin, hugged Su Jin's thighs and twisted and said, "No...... I don't want ...... That fire looked so terrible, I was afraid it would burn me...... Forget it. ”

Although Xia Chongming is curious, although she also hopes to be able to play fireworks on this Chinese New Year's Eve with joy like adults and big children, she is still a five-year-old child, and she is still instinctively afraid of such a thing as fire. At that time, in Xia Chongming's eyes, fireworks were still very dangerous.

After all, the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is.

Su Jin smiled, led her to a clearing, and said to Xia Chongming, "Silly girl, what's there to be afraid of." When you set it on fire, can't you just run away? It's okay! ”

Su Jin's eyes were as gentle as water, she squatted down, took out a lighter from her pocket, and took out a very small cone-shaped firework from the bag. This kind of fireworks is very small, as long as you put it on the ground, light it and run away, the fire is very small, and it is no problem for children to play with it.

She put these two things in front of Xia Chongming, but Xia Chongming pushed back and said, "No, no!" Mom, why don't you come, I'll just watch. With that, she stepped back.

Su Jin didn't plan to give up, she was still persistent, and asked Xia Chongming to try to set off this firework. It seems that in her eyes, this is not a simple question of setting off fireworks, it is her daughter, willing to challenge herself.

"I'm not coming, don't worry, this flower is not big, there will be no danger. Later, you can just see it lit and run back, okay? ”

Su Jin took Xia Chongming's hand and stuffed the lighter and small fireworks into it.

She patted Xia Chongming's back, and pointed to the open space in front of her and said, "Don't you see other children playing like this?" They're not afraid, and you shouldn't be either! “

Xia Chongming swallowed her saliva and walked towards the open space, she put the fireworks in her hand on the ground, lit the lighter with a worried heart, and lit the fireworks with the flames......

Thinking of this, Xia Chongming smiled, he was really fat at that time. Later, after she lit the fireworks, she was stunned for a moment like Li Xuehuang Fangcai, and she didn't think that Su Jin was going to run away. By the time she came back to her senses, her thumb had been burned by the flames, and it felt like a piece of hard dead skin, which would fall off automatically after the festival.

She wasn't afraid of fireworks because of the burns. On the contrary, because of that bold attempt, she liked the feeling of fireworks even more, listening to the sound of gunpowder burning, looking at the colorful light in front of her, the whole person's mood would be different.

Li Xuehuang coughed lightly, hiding his embarrassment. He saw Xia Chongming beat the firelight and dodged back, but he didn't expect to be grabbed by Xia Chongming's hand, Xia Chongming held his hand, and used the fire light on the fireworks in her hand to ignite the flower in his hand.

She smiled while holding Li Xuehuang's hand, helping Li Xuehuang wave the flower in his hand, her face was very happy, and she said to Li Xuehuang: "Look, this thing has to play like this, just draw circles and write in the air." Isn't it beautiful and beautiful? ”

At this moment, Xia Chongming has completely become a child, a child who frolicks to his heart's content, laughing happily.

"Yes...... It's beautiful. Li Xuehuang's cold face also smiled, and he let Xia Chongming hold his hand, looking at the happy girl beside him affectionately. She's still so playful, and once she plays, she doesn't have any worries at all.

She has made him envious, this is her charm, she is so simple and kind.

He hadn't played with fireworks, or many of his peers had been exposed to anything. His experience was different from that of ordinary people, and it was a little difficult for him to talk about it to this day. He didn't have a childhood, he just had to be busy running around for so many years, and he was persistent in searching.

That's why when Xia Chongming handed him the fireworks, he hesitated a little.

Dai Chuchen also joined in with fireworks, and the three of them soon mingled in this square. They set off the fireworks in the bags and chased them around the square.

There were fewer and fewer fireworks in the bag, and the three of them gradually got tired of playing until they had used up all the fireworks. Xia Chongming sat on the side of the street, looked at the rest of the people who were still playing in the square, and gasped and said, "It's so happy!" I haven't played like this in a long time. ”

"Yes, fireworks are estimated to only be seen in this kind of place in the future, it's really full of memories......" Dai Chuchen also did it, wiping the sweat on his forehead and said with a smile.

Li Xuehuang didn't look as tired as these two people, his stiff expression looked a lot more natural, and it made people feel no longer cold and cold. He also sat next to Xia Chongming and looked at Xia Chongming's side face carefully.

"You remember when we were young, I still had you, and Luo Luo, when I lit a fire, I especially liked to throw that little flying saucer into it! One time the flying saucer came straight out of the fire! Scared Lin Luo ha! Xia Chongming laughed heartily as he spoke.

"It seems that there is such a thing, if you don't say it, I'll forget it." Dai Chuchen thought about it and laughed with Xia Chongming.

Speaking of this, Xia Chongming suddenly remembered Lin Luo, who went to the appointment. She turned on her phone and looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening, and they had been playing in this snack street for so long. Lin Luo said before that he was going to explain, so he would come back to accompany her, but after so long, he didn't see Lin Luo send her a message.

Xia Chongming was a little worried about Lin Luo, she thought that it was so late, and Lin Luo should be back soon, so she made a phone call. There was a busy tone on the phone, and Lin Luo didn't answer her phone.

This made Xia Chongming a little puzzled, looked down at his phone and muttered, "Luo Luo, this guy, why don't you answer the phone...... Playing crazy? Forgot about us? ”

"You don't care if she answers the phone or not, I guess she's having fun now." Dai Chuchen pursed his lips and said with a slight mockery.

"That's not good, I'm not very relieved that she hasn't contacted me for so long. I'll wait for me to send her a text message. After speaking, Xia Chongming called Lin Luo and sent it over.

She asked Lin Luo where he was now, if he would like to come to the square and set off fireworks with them for a while, and if he would like to go back with them.

After sitting for a while, Xia Chongming finally waited for Lin Luo's reply. Lin Luo said that she couldn't leave here, so she would go there today, let Xia Chongming and them go back first, and she would go back with the rest of her classmates later.

Xia Chongming was a little disappointed when she read Lin Luo's reply, in fact, she still wanted to hang out with Lin Luo again, especially to play with fireworks, but since Lin Luo said so, she had to reply: Okay, I know.

She patted Dai Chuchen on the shoulder, put out Lin Luo's reply, and said to Dai Chuchen: "You see you're really right, she asked us to go back first." Tell me who she went to play with, and she got so carried away. It can't be a relationship, right?! Xia Chongming suddenly raised his tone and made a bold guess.

Dai Chuchen snorted and shook his head: "How is it possible, with her virtue, I don't think I can find anyone who loves her in this life." You can just ask her when she comes back. With that, he patted his ass and stood up.

"Yes, I'll ask her when she gets back." Xia Chongming saw Dai Chuchen get up to leave, and also stood up, she stretched her waist and continued: "Why don't you do it today, it's so late, I'm also sleepy, let's go back and rest early, we have to climb the mountain tomorrow." ”

She moved the muscles and bones of her body, and felt a lot more relaxed.

Dai Chuchen nodded, and several people returned the same way and returned to the hotel. Dai Chuchen and Li Xuehuang returned to their room together, while Xia Chongming also went back alone.

She pushed open the door, took off all the dirty clothes on the bed, found some toiletries and went into the bathroom. When she came out again, Lin Luo had already returned to the room, and was sitting on the bed looking at her phone.
