Chapter 120
- If you want me to ...... What about falling in love?
In the middle of the night, people were quiet, and Xiao Zongchen listened to the sound of his footsteps from heavy to light, gradually blurring.
He asked himself, recalled himself, analyzed himself, when he heard Chu Xi's first question, what was his initial reaction, and which initial emotions had the greatest weight.
In the end, there is no solution.
Back at the base, he stood in the courtyard, quietly looking at the house allocated to Chu Mingguo next to the base, and gradually wandered......
And Chu Xi also made a sobering soup for Old Man Sun and Chu Mingliang at this time.
"Are they still awake?" Chu Xi carefully carried the tray, walked to Chu Mingliang's room, and asked Chu Mingguo.
This is Chu Mingliang's room, there is a foldable bed in it, the spare bedding that Chu Xi bought before has been spread on it, and now Chu Mingliang is lying on it, and Chu Mingliang's relatively wide and comfortable bed is now lying Old Man Sun.
"Just let them rinse their mouths and wake them up." Chu Mingguo said, directly waking people up.
Chu Mingliang opened his eyes in a daze, and after recognizing that the person in front of him was Chu Mingguo, his mouth was deflated, and he held his head and cried, "My mother is gone!" I don't have a mother, Mingguo, Mingguo, you don't have a mother anymore......"
"My mother was killed by me, and I killed ......" Chu Mingliang couldn't cry, "She didn't even get to see you for the last time......"
"I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for the child, I'm guilty, I can't atone for my sins......"
His eyes were confused, he couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream, and when he saw Chu Mingguo, he subconsciously felt sad and wanted to cry.
"No...... No, you're dead too. Chu Mingliang shook his head in a daze, "Mingguo, you are also dead, and your mother is also dead......
Chu Mingguo looked at him like that, his heart was uncomfortable, and his nose was a little sour.
"Mingguo, did you come up and take me along?" Chu Mingliang was about to stand up as he spoke, but was held down by Chu Mingguo.
Feeling skinny under his clothes, Chu Mingguo's throat was blocked and panting vigorously, and he said that he didn't blame him or blamed him, why did he have to bear such a heavy burden of guilt?
"Mingguo?" Chu Mingliang couldn't break free, so he grabbed his arm, "You take me away, I'll make amends to our mother." ”
Chu Mingguo turned his head and was about to call Chu Xi to bring the decanting soup over, but there was already an extra cup before meeting.
"Drunk." Chu Mingguo said in a deep voice, with a straight face, "Drink and sleep." ”
When Chu Mingliang heard the word "drank", he picked up the sobering soup, and drank it without saying a word.
"It doesn't taste good." Chu Mingliang bared his teeth after drinking.
Chu Mingguo was not angry, "It's delicious, can you still drink two bowls?" ”
It's just cut cabbage bangzi, and the soup is boiled with minced ginger, how delicious can it be?
"Alright, lie down and sleep." Chu Mingguo wrapped him tightly in the quilt and went to see Old Man Sun again.
Old man Sun already had a slight snoring sound, obviously asleep, and he slept quite soundly.
Chu Mingguo hesitated, then listened to Chu Xi say, "Sobering up soup protects the stomach, let's wake up and drink before going to sleep." ”
So Chu Mingguo concocted it in the same way, and let Old Man Sun also drink the sobering soup, wrap it tightly, and then turn around with the bowl.
Chu Xi was about to take the bowl, but Chu Mingguo took the tray, "Just these two bowls, I'll come." You go wash up and rest early. ”
"I'll wake them up tomorrow, you don't have to worry about them being late for work." Chu Mingguo is also going to work tomorrow, and it is also a matter of passing to call them up.
Chu Xi nodded, "Hmm." ”
Pulled the light, closed the door, Chu Xi and Chu Mingguo went out on their front and back feet, and then one went to the kitchen and the other went to wash.
After Chu Mingguo finished washing the dishes, he took another look at Chu Mingliang and Old Man Sun, and saw that both of them were asleep honestly, so he gently closed the door.
Drinking today, Chu Mingguo let them drink, and even persuaded them to drink two glasses.
The main thing is to take this opportunity to let Chu Mingliang vent. When you get drunk and wake up, you should feel less guilty......
When Chu Xi came out after washing, he saw that Chu Mingguo was still standing at the door of the hall, as if he was waiting for her, so he walked over.
shouted, "Dad." ”
"Hmm." Chu Mingguo looked at her, his eyes were full of smiles, and he said softly, "Is the Lantern Festival here not as lively as at home?" ”
There are some things that are not allowed, so fireworks do not exist.
"Fortunately, there are many literate people in our deep town, and they can guess lantern riddles." Chu Xi sat down according to Chu Mingguo's meaning, faced him face to face, and said slowly, "No one set off fireworks before, but in recent years, because of the reform and opening up, there have been more people doing small business, in order to take a good omen, or make a wish, some fireworks will be set off on the day of the Lantern Festival." ”
Chu Xi saw that he wanted to hear it, so he said more, "Grandma will make her own rice balls, and after eating the rice balls, she will take me outside to ......."
Mrs. Chu's affairs, Chu Xi said a lot, and when he could finish speaking, he was quiet.
After hearing this, Chu Mingguo's heart was so soft that he was a mess, "I haven't eaten your grandmother's glutinous rice balls for a long time......"
That's all the memories of when I was a child, no matter how difficult life is, there are also sweet black sesame lard stuffed dumplings on the day of the Lantern Festival.
It's just that as I grow up, I have too many things to do, and I am moved forward by the passage of time, and I slowly put the ones I was a child behind me......
"Tangyuan," Chu Xi hesitated for a moment, and said reluctantly, "When I have time, I can try to make it." ”
The original body is able to make rice balls, and Mrs. Chu taught them hand in hand, and the rice balls made are round and well-proportioned.
But she only has the steps in the memory of the original body, but she has not actually operated it.
"I'll do it with you when I have time." Chu Mingguo looked at her lovingly and said with a smile, "Your grandmother should have taught you how to make glutinous rice balls, right?" I was curious and learned when I was a kid. ”
Chu Xi rummaged through his memories and found that Mrs. Chu did say that Chu Ming would make rice balls.
"Well, I'll buy raw materials when I'm free."
"There's no hurry." Chu Mingguo smiled and raised his hand, "I have to tell you something today." ”
Chu Xi waited quietly for him to say.
Chu Mingguo: "When you went out to buy groceries, the principal of the base high school came over and told me that he wanted your uncle to live in the school. ”
Chu Xi nodded, "Yes, I don't have a problem." ”
"Your uncle doesn't know about this yet, and I haven't had a chance to tell him, so I'll tell you first today, just to make you mentally prepared, and I also want to ask your opinion." Chu Mingguo said slowly, "Do you want to follow your uncle, or follow me?" Follow your uncle, if you have any learning problems, you can go to the school at any time to find teachers in various subjects for advice. With me, you'll have to live at the base and not be able to come and go as you please, but I'll definitely give you guidance when I have time. ”
Chu Xi stopped and wanted to say, is there no third possibility, let her find a place to live alone?
But, "Let's go to the base." ”
Her existence always reminds Chu Mingliang of his sins and deepens the guilt in his heart. Moreover, he was too careful with her.
