On the side of the side of the street leading to the bus stop, there are a lot of people setting up stalls, because the New Year is about to be celebrated, and all the New Year's goods are placed.

Those who sell couplets, firecrackers, fruits, sugar, melon seeds, and freshly slaughtered beef and mutton.

There were several bull heads on the side of the road, bloody, and his eyes were wide open, and Yuan Huaxing was a little afraid to look at them directly.

She was carrying her backpack on her back, and Xiaoxue barked again in the bag, because there would be firecrackers outside from time to time, which made the cat even more frightened.

Yuan Huaxing passed by a stationery store and bought several small plastic tubes with stacked stars from it.

There were a lot of people at the bus stop, and Yuan Huaxing finally squeezed into No. 48 and got on the bus, she was afraid of squeezing the cat, so she squeezed to the rear.

The car hadn't moved yet, Yuan Huaxing just stood behind to hold steady, and inadvertently looked out the window, a familiar figure, that was Chen Xiao, standing at the bus stop sign, and followed the crowd to a bus behind.

The bus moved, Yuan Huaxing quickly lowered his body, and glanced at the bus from the rear window, which was also a No. 48.

"Chen Xiao, where are you going?" Yuan Huaxing was puzzled.

The two buses were driving at a constant speed, Yuan Huaxing just looked all the way, and she found that Chen Xiao didn't seem to have gotten off at the stops along the way.

also took No. 48, which couldn't help but make Yuan Huaxing speculate whether Chen Xiao would live in the same community as her.

Soon, the Quanmin community arrived at the station, Yuan Huaxing got off the bus and hid behind the billboard, she was waiting for the 48 road behind.

Soon, the car stopped, crowded, and Chen Xiao was not seen.

Yuan Huaxing was a little disappointed, it seemed that Chen Xiao was just stopping by, but after about three stops, it was the terminal of Route 48, and she guessed that the place where Chen Xiao went should not be far from here.

She walked while thinking, and at this time, Xiaoxue in the backpack had already accepted her fate, and was silent inside.

Unconsciously, Yuan Huaxing arrived at the door of her new house, and the moment she entered the corridor, she suddenly found that there were several green mailboxes next to the meter box.

The mailboxes were covered with a thick layer of dust that seemed to have not been touched for a long time, and each mailbox had a number on it, one of which said 102.

She knew that this mailbox was now her home, but the mailbox was locked, Yuan Huaxing was a little curious, she felt as if there was something inside, but she didn't know if the previous owner had given the key to the mailbox to her father.

Without further thought, she pulled out the key and opened the door.

The door opened, Yuan Huaxing pushed the door in to change his shoes, and saw his father holding a talisman in his hand, fiddling with something near a jar, Yuan You heard the door ring, and looked back to see that his daughter was walking to the bathroom.

"Where's your cat?"

"Where's it in the bag, Dad, I'll give it a bath first."

Xiaoxue is a white cat, and if she doesn't take a bath, she will soon become a gray cat.

What surprised Yuan Huaxing was that Xiaoxue was very well-behaved when she took a bath, but it was also possible that she was a little confused when she first arrived in an unfamiliar environment.

After Xiaoxue washed it, Yuan Huaxing put it in her bedroom, found a plastic basin, and tore a bunch of newspaper shreds in it, this is the cat's toilet, before in the old building, Yuan Huaxing was full of experience in doing this.

After a while, Xiaoxue lay on her bed very naturally, the sunlight came in from the outside and shone on its body, and its blue eyes met the sun, looking like jewels.

Xiaoxue would never have imagined that one day she would lie in such a comfortable place and become a house cat.

And Yuan Huaxing was busy with these, and he was a little idle, and when he saw the star tube, he took it out and folded the stars.

She bought plastic tubes of the same color, all of them were blue, and the stars that were stacked became sapphire blue, so they looked good, and she wanted to fold them and give them to Chen Xiao.

Time passed in a blink of an eye, and it was Chinese New Year's Eve.

In the living room of Yuan Huaxing's house, I don't know which station it is on the TV, and I read it like a broadcast.

"Zhang Lantern for the New Year, everything is ready for Chinese New Year's Eve, the dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve are fragrant and reunited, and the happy and sweet year of keeping the New Year."

Yuanyou had long said to Luo Baifan that he would come over to spend Chinese New Year's Eve together, and Luo Baifan agreed, because he was now single and had no relatives locally, and Yuanhuaxing didn't mind, because there were so many people.

In the morning, Yuanyou and his daughter posted couplets, and the couplets were written by him himself.

When they posted it at the door, Yuanyou regretted it.

I really can't see it, Yuan Huaxing is the same as having obsessive-compulsive disorder, crooked, low, short, even half a point.

I wasn't satisfied, if it wasn't for Yuanyou's practice, his old arm would have to make his daughter sore, and in the end he really couldn't stand it, and if he tortured it for a while, I'm afraid he would have the heart to tear the couplet.

He said to Yuan Huaxing: "Child, if you are not satisfied, you will really be unfilial, and you will be more tired than my father and me except for a demon."

Yuan Huaxing was laughed at by what his father said, Luo Baifan happened to come at this time, and Yuanyou said to Lao Luo: "You are here, take a look, are you right?"

Luo Baifan took a look, "It's very positive, stick!" ”

Yuanyou breathed a sigh of relief.

The three of them began to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, cold dishes, meat dishes, and vegetarian dishes in the afternoon, and then began to make dumplings.

Yuan Huaxing doesn't like dumplings very much, she never eats stuffing from snack skins, so she doesn't make dumplings.

Her role is that his father pulled out a drug, and she pressed it next to her.

And Luo Baifan seems to be more finished, the level is about the same as Yuanhuaxing, and he also volunteered to roll out the dumpling skin, the dumpling skin, the rolling out is not round, the thickness is not the same, and some can be used as cakes when rolled out.

Yuanyou really couldn't stand it, so he asked the two of them to go to battle in person, and they volunteered to try the stuffing, anyway, it looked very ugly, but at least it could be eaten.

When the dumplings were almost wrapped, Yuan Huaxing's face was full of flour, and her Uncle Luo didn't go anywhere, after several people looked at each other, they all laughed.

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was very satisfying, the time was just right, and after Jet Li's backgammon advertisement, the Spring Festival Gala at 8 o'clock arrived as scheduled.

I don't know if it's because of the big color TV, this year's Spring Festival Gala is particularly exciting, when Faye Wong and Na Ying appeared together, the song "Meet in 1998" made Yuan Huaxing feel that it was simply the best song in the world.

In a blink of an eye, it was almost twelve o'clock, the sound of firecrackers outside came and went, Yuanyou gave incense to Master Zu, Luo Baifan went outside to set off firecrackers, and the cat was trembling in the corner of the bed.

And Yuan Huaxing looked at the children outside holding the brilliant fireworks flying out of the night pearl fireworks, she silently closed her eyes, the brilliance was reflected on her face, and her hands were staggered to make a wish.

The residence arranged for Chen Xiao by the Sixth Bureau was the front building of Yuanhuaxing's house.

Where Chen Xiao was standing in the house, he could not only see the courtyard in front of him, but also all the windows of Yuanhuaxing's house.

At this time, the sound of cannon outside was deafening, the smell of sulfur in the air seeped in, colorful fireworks flickered in her eyes, and at the same time illuminated the glass opposite, and she saw that Yuan Huaxing folded his hands as if making a wish.

Chen Xiao didn't feel anything about these festivals, and this year, she was not lonely, maybe because she could see Yuanhuaxing at this moment.

After Yuan Huaxing made a wish, she looked at those fleeting fireworks, and she suddenly thought of something.

Turn around, walk to the writing desk, and write a line of words on a piece of yellow rune paper with a pen.

"The vicissitudes of life, the stars remain the same."

Then I folded the yellow talisman a few times, folded it into a six-pointed star, and put it in the box containing the stars.

As soon as Chinese New Year's Eve passed, the following days were actually very boring, because there were no relatives, so in the first month, Yuanhuaxing's home was clean.

happened to be the VCD machine that Luo Baifan brought him, Yuan Huaxing had long wanted to watch "Slam Dunk", so he went out to find a place to rent a disc and rented it back.

While watching cartoons and stacking stars, I didn't know it was more than three o'clock in the morning.

There were thin curtains in the hall of Yuan Huaxing's house, so Chen Xiao could see Yuan Huaxing's every move.

The light of the TV changed the depth and shone on Yuan Huaxing, and she didn't know what she was watching, and she always lowered her head, holding something in her hand.

In this way, day after day, Yuan Huaxing felt that it was too boring at home, and he missed his school life instead.

And if Chen Xiao didn't live here, she could see Yuan Huaxing every day, she felt that she had been forgotten by the bureau, because no one contacted her or asked about it, she was like an intelligent monitor with memory.

During this period, Xiaoxue did a few outrageous things at home, broke a cup, scratched the sofa, and slipped to Yuanyou's house in the middle of the night, sleeping on his face, Yuanyou was almost suffocated.

This Xiaoxue didn't see anything outside, it probably thought that even if it was sent back to the old building in the future, it would be the toilet urinal that drank water and licked its legs in front of Guiguzi.

This holiday is about to pass, the Lantern Festival is coming, and there are lanterns in the central square of the city, but it is a little far away.

The Quanmin community is relatively close to the steel plant, and there are also lanterns there, and I heard that the factory spends a high price to set off fireworks every year, which is particularly spectacular.

Yuan Huaxing finished eating dumplings with his father at home early, and began to walk to the place with lanterns at about 7 o'clock in the evening, and he needed to walk about three streets to get there.

It was cold outside, she was wearing a lot, she was walking very fast, and she still felt a little hot.

When I arrived at the street where the lanterns were, there were not only lamps on both sides of the road, but also those selling all kinds of snacks, and the most sold was sugar gourds, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the street was crowded with people.

She glanced at the sky, and many Kong Ming lanterns were rising, which were people's wishes, carrying the beauty to them, they were like bright stars.

Yuan Huaxing never let go of Kong Ming lantern, bought one on the side of the road, asked how to put it for a long time, and finally held it up before his hand froze. Everything seems to be very beautiful, make a wish, and it is about Chen Xiao again.

However, when she happily lit the candle in the middle of the Kong Ming lantern, this Kong Ming lantern turned out to be different from what she expected.

The lamp did fly, and it wasn't slow, but it didn't fly up, but it flew eerily flat above people's heads.

Yuan Huaxing was speechless, and she ran through the crowd, trying to retrieve the strange lamp.

Chen Xiao saw at this time that Yuan Huaxing was chasing a Kong Ming lantern in the crowd and ran far away, perhaps the inner lamp was moved by her sincerity, and finally rose to the sky at the end of the street and flew to a high place.

When Chen Xiao looked up to look at the Kong Ming lantern, with a bang, a brilliant firework fell into the night sky like stars and rain, instantly turning into a huge dream background.

Yuan Huaxing was made to cry and laugh by himself, why was the first time he put Kong Ming Lantern was this kind of experience, and I don't know if the wish he made would come true.

All kinds of fireworks continued, and the splendid appearance was so huge that it seemed to be within reach.

When the last fireworks withered, only smoke and dust remained in the sky, drifting away in the distance with the wind.

The way back is still Yuan Huaxing alone, as lonely as when he came.

Yuanhuaxing stopped and looked at the sky, the Chang Geng star hadn't gone down yet, shining brightly, making her look fascinated.

And Chen Xiao also raised his head not far away and looked at the starry sky.

The winter vacation has passed, so I will report to school on Saturday, February 14th, and then officially start classes the next day.

On the day of registration, it happened to be Valentine's Day in the West, and Yuan Huaxing put a box of stacked stars in his school bag, nine hundred and ninety-nine, filled with heart-shaped gift boxes, which looked a little shocking.

Her mind was all in it, and her fingers hurt for many days with so many stars.

I haven't seen Xu Junfang for more than a month, and Xu Junfang's hair has grown again.

"Lao Xu, your hair grows so fast, are you waiting for February 2nd to shave the faucet?"

"Really? Long? Then I'll go get a haircut today. ”

"You can't cut your hair during the New Year, it's not that you will..."

Xu Junfang laughed when he heard this, "Dead uncle? ”

Yuan Huaxing didn't ask her father, she just listened to others.

"yes, actually, I don't know if it's true or not."

"One, I don't have an uncle, so if it's true, I'm not afraid. Second, this proverb actually has a story. ”

"What's the story?"

"After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the Qing Dynasty was established, and the Han people were forcibly allowed to shave their hair and keep braids. Han people cherish the previous dynasty, so in the first month of the year said that they would not shave their heads, and some people think that "the head can be broken, but the hair cannot be shaved".

But in the end, such a struggle among the people still failed, so people used the method of "not shaving their heads in the first lunar month" to express their condolences for the past.

The specific meaning of this is also homophonic, and "thinking of the old" is then read as "dead uncle", which is the meaning. ”

Yuan Huaxing showed an expression of adoration, "Old Xu, you know a lot!" ”

Xu Junfang smiled lightly, "In terms of history, who knows as much as I do." ”

Before Yuan Huaxing could say anything, the classmate at the back table pouted, "It's like you've witnessed history, just blow it." ”

Xu Junfang ignored the murmur and still smiled.

Yuan Huaxing changed the subject, "Have you gone to see the lanterns during the Lantern Festival?" ”

"No, my wheelchair is inconvenient, so I looked at the fireworks in the distance in the yard, and the central square was really bloody, there were many kinds of fireworks, very dazzling."

"The fireworks I watched near my house were not bad, but the first time I put on a Kong Ming lantern, I almost failed.

Have you ever seen Kong Ming lanterns fly flat and fly fast? I chased most of the streets but didn't catch up, and finally they took to the air on their own, just like they were trying to me off. ”

Xu Junfang laughed, "You are already very powerful, Kong Ming Lantern can still fly alone, it's not bad if it doesn't burn." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the teacher walked in.
