Chapter 19: It's finally time for the holidays
"You forgot? I said that I would go back together during the winter vacation. When Hu Ben said this, Yanni remembered. It seems to have been promised.
"You didn't buy a ticket, did you?" Hu Ben didn't wait for Yanni to answer, so he continued to ask.
Every holiday, tickets are tight, and they usually have to be bought a week in advance. I've been reviewing for the exam for a while, and I almost forgot about it.
"No, not yet." Yanni replied honestly.
"Then I'll buy it for you?" Tiger Ben cautiously asked for advice.
"I have to ask Tian Tian and Danqing how to go." Yanni wasn't quite sure what the others thought.
"Yu Danqing and my cousin will go together, and I will help buy the ticket, you just ask Tian Tian." Tiger Ben said with certainty.
Yanni held the microphone with one hand and pushed Danqing with the other: "You go with Liu Kaitian?" ”
"Hmm" Danqing didn't raise his head: "Brother Chicken Paw helped buy tickets together." ”
"Okay, I'll ask Shimoda Tian and I'll call you later." Yanni put down the microphone and went to find Tian Tian next door.
Tian Tian naturally listens to Yanni in everything. So Yanni immediately dialed back to Hu Ben, and asked Hu Ben to buy tickets together. The student ID card was brought to Huben by Liu Kaitian.
In a blink of an eye, it was the season of separation, Martin took Yanni to visit Xidan and Wangfujing, and then ate roast duck: "Don't go back, people ask you if you have eaten Peking duck, you say no, how embarrassing." Martin joked.
Separation is not necessarily a bad thing. They have yet to experience a real separation since the relationship was confirmed, and both are looking forward to a decent brief separation to test the stability of the relationship.
The night before Yanni went home, they rarely went to the library again.
The two met for a walk around the campus.
"What are you going to do during winter break?" Martin asked as he walked, he was still curious about Yanni's life.
"I'm just eating, sleeping and eating at home." Yanni laughed, "It feels like a pig." ”
"What about you?" Yanni asked Martin.
"Play with classmates, rehearse, and go out to sell punch tapes. I don't know exactly what I've done, but I feel like I'm busy. Martin rubbed his hands.
"What about Chinese New Year's Eve? How do you usually live? Yanni asked casually as she climbed up the slope.
"A large family eats, and watches the Spring Festival Gala while eating." Martin sulked his head and followed behind Yanni.
"It seems that Chinese New Year's Eve is similar all over the country." The Spring Festival Gala has become the most important symbol of the Chinese New Year for the people of the country, overshadowing the momentum of fireworks and firecrackers.
"We have to eat a candy when we get up at the beginning of the new year, so that it can be sweet for a year." Yanni has already talked from Chinese New Year's Eve to the first day of the new year.
"Okay, then I'll eat a candy on the first day of next year." Martin took Yanni's hand and held it tightly.
"We're going to set fire to the ground on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." Yanni suddenly remembered this custom.
"Set fire? What do you mean? "Martin had never heard of it.
"It's to pile up the weeds in the rural fields and set them on fire, and my dad said that it was to burn the insects in the field." Yanni suddenly laughed: "When I was a child, my father took me to the field to set fires, but I piled them in the field and kept the big haystacks that I usually used for fires. ”
"You were naughty when you were a kid?" Martin smiled too.
"Tell me about your naughty things when you were a kid, except for cutting girls' hair." Yanni didn't forget to uncover Martin's scars.
"I don't really remember anything in particular." Martin scratched his head: "Does watering flowers with salt water count?" ”
"Talent, come, I'm happy." Yanni heard of salt water watering flowers for the first time.
"When I was a child, once my mother's soup was not delicious, my mother said that there was less salt, and then added a little salt to make it delicious, and also popularized to me that a person's life is inseparable from salt, and if you don't eat salt, you will have no strength." Martin thought for a moment, and then said, "Then I thought, if I give the flower a little salt, will it have the strength to bloom more and better flowers?" So I watered all the flowers in the yard. ”
"Haha, it's yours, and then what?" Yanni asked.
"And then all the flowers in a yard wilted." Martin himself laughed.
"Your mom didn't beat you?"
"At first, I didn't know, I thought it was a disease, but then I recruited myself."
"You've been honest since you were a child, huh?"
"I saw that those flowers were pitiful, I felt distressed, and then I cried, and then I recruited." Martin recalls the scene: "My mother saw that I was crying so pitifully, and she didn't want to hit me. ”
Yanni couldn't laugh anymore. A little boy came to mind looking at a yard of wilted flowers and crying pear blossoms.
"Wasn't it cute when I was a kid?"
"Well, super cute!"
"The hug!" Martin stretched out his bolted arms, and Yanni obediently complied.
"Let's go back with Liu Huben, I'll report to you in advance!" Yanni didn't forget what Martin said last time to report in advance.
"Well, there are people to take care of you on the road, so I'm also relieved." Martin said this from the bottom of his heart.
The train ticket is at 11 o'clock, and they have to leave the school at 9 o'clock, and they go directly to the train station to meet Hu Ben.
Martin and Gao Tiantian sent Yanni and Tian Tian to the train station together, bought platform tickets, and sent them to the carriage all the way. Yanni introduced Martin to Huben, and the two of them actually talked for a long time, Yanni was a little surprised.
The compartment was very ambiguous and well heated.
The train started slowly, and Yanni waved goodbye to Martin.
The mood of going back is completely different from the feeling when I came, and the stranger has become a friend. Half a year away from home, the feeling of homesickness is far more exciting than the freshness when you come.
Everyone packed up and went to their beds.
Liu Kaitian and Yu Danqing both slept in the middle bunk, whispering love words from time to time.
Tian Tian took the initiative to ask to sleep on the top bunk this time, saying that he slept in the bottom bunk last time. Yanni and Huben both slept in the lower bunks.
Yanni didn't go to bed, but made a cup of coffee and sat down at the small table at the window. Hu Ben also sat down with his old cadre water cup.
"Your boyfriend is good." A headless sentence, Yanni was a little stunned when she heard it.
"Actually, my brother told me to stop beating you up, saying that you have a boyfriend who loves you very much." Tiger Ben continued.
"You've got spies on my side!" In fact, Yanni guessed that Liu Kaitian would tell Hu Ben because Martin was too eye-catching at school.
"So, we can still be friends, right?" Hu Ben kept looking out the window and didn't look at Yanni.
"Of course." Yanni did not hesitate: "We have always been friends!" ”
It was a train with no delays and arrived at the train station on time. Cousin Yanni was already waiting at the exit of the station. Yanni also saw Hu Ben's father at the exit of the station, and naturally exchanged a few more words.
My cousin is also going home for the New Year, so I picked up Yanni and Tian Tian to go together. Liu Kaitian sent Danqing back to Yangzhou, and then came back by himself, and let the tiger and his son take the luggage back first.
"Happy winter vacation has officially begun!" Yanni dragged her luggage, cheered, and followed her cousin to the bus station.
