After Shen Yin arrived at Zhou Fansheng's house, the snow on her body had turned into water, she changed her clothes, went to the living room to pour two cups of hot water, and handed one cup to Zhou Fansheng.

He turned on the TV and sat on the sofa watching the news, while Shen Yin also sat opposite him, playing with his mobile phone. Suddenly, Shen Yin received a WeChat message on her mobile phone, which turned out to be sent to her by Xue Yufan, and the content of the message was: "Shen Yin, how are you doing?" Have you been available lately? I want to meet you. ”

She immediately replied with a message: "I'm fine, but I've been busy lately, I'm afraid I don't have any extra time, I'm very sorry!" ”

Another new message came in, "Okay, when do you have time, let's meet again!" ”

"Hmm." She replied.

Shen Yin felt a little hungry, so she went to make some millet porridge, and she took out a small piece of pumpkin left in the refrigerator.

Forty minutes later, the pumpkin porridge was already cooked, and she took out a little mustard she bought at noon today to make up enough for dinner.

She asked Zhou Fansheng to come over for dinner, and he sat down quietly and ate half a bowl of pumpkin porridge. Shen Yin also ate a small bowl, and after they cleaned up the dishes together, they sat on the sofa and chatted.

Zhou Fansheng took out a notebook from the room, opened a file, and handed it to her, "This is a novel I wrote recently, but I haven't finished it yet, how do you feel about it first?" ”

Shen Yin sat up, took out a pair of glasses from the room and put them on.

"Are you nearsighted?" He asked suddenly.

Shen Yin smiled, "Yes, I used to wear contact lenses all the time, but my eyes are a little swollen these days, so I wear glasses." ”

"You didn't wear glasses when you watched the movie?"

She touched her ears in embarrassment, "I forgot when I went out." ”

He remembered why she had been sleepy when he was watching the movie just now, and he couldn't help but feel funny in his heart.

Shen Yin sat cross-legged on the sofa, staring intently at the laptop screen, moving his hands on the keyboard.

Twenty minutes later, Shen Yin finished reading. She plucked her eyes, picked up the eye drop bottle on the coffee table, and dropped two drops.

She pointed to her notebook and told him, "I underlined everything I thought was problematic in red. ”

Zhou Fansheng took the notebook and quickly browsed it, and found that there were only two red underlines on it, he read it carefully, and still didn't understand what was wrong with these two places, "Shen Yin, what's wrong with these two places?" ”

Shen Yin smiled awkwardly, "I don't know, it's just that it feels weird to read." ”

She walked up to him, pointed to the first place above and said: "Here are all descriptions of the heroine's actions, but judging from the descriptions of these words, I feel that the heroine's performance is not quite in line with the overall clue of the article." Do you think so? She looked at him and saw that he was lost in thought.

Shen Yin left softly and turned off the TV.

Shen Yin, who stayed at Zhou Fansheng's house for two days, visited his study, which was about two stories tall and contained many famous books, as well as novels he wrote himself, and even his elementary school compositions. In the past two days she has been there, she has inspired him a lot, and she can often grasp the key point of Zhou Fansheng's novels, although the wording is a bit casual, but the meaning of the expression is very clear. She gave him a little advice when she left, hoping that he could go out and walk more, see more of the scenery outside, and even if he couldn't write a novel, don't put too much pressure on himself.

Zhou Fansheng asked Zhang Zhehai to send her home, he had already booked a flight to Sanya, and planned to travel there for a while. When leaving, Zhou Fansheng gave her a pearl necklace and gave her a bank card with her salary. Shen Yin returned the bank card to him and made him the last meal of preserved egg and lean porridge, and he felt very satisfied.

On the way back to the county seat, Shen Yin saw a photo of the airport sent by Zhou Fansheng, and there was a message below: "Goodbye, my friend!" She quickly edited a message: "Have a safe trip, friend!" ”

She put her phone back in her bag, felt for a card, and pulled it out to see that it was the one he had given her. She just remembered that when she went out, Zhou Fansheng hugged her, probably at that time he secretly stuffed it into her bag.

The snow in the city has long since melted, and the weather is warm, and it is estimated that it will clear tomorrow. Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, the road is congested with vehicles, and pedestrians carrying large bags and small bags can be seen everywhere.

Zhang Zhehai sent Shen Yin to the community where she lived before driving back. Shen Yin saw him at the gate of the community, and Wang Mengliang walked over with a smile and helped her carry her suitcase.

"Why did you come here?" Shen Yin held his arm with a happy expression.

"I'm telepathic." He smiled at her, in fact, he still missed her, so he couldn't help but come over to take a look, but he didn't expect to meet her just now, "Didn't you say that when you came back, you wanted me to pick you up?" ”

Shen Yin touched his ears embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I forgot." ”

He touched her head and said gently, "I'll forgive you this time, and I can't forget it next time." ”

Shen Yin nodded, looked into his eyes, and swore solemnly: "Don't worry, it will definitely not be next time." ”

"Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, I want you to go to live with me tonight, and we will go home together tomorrow." He said softly.

Shen Yin thought for a while, and felt that it was better to live with him directly in the traffic jam these days, so as not to let him run back and forth, "Okay, I'll go back and pack my things first." ”

He carried the suitcase upstairs and waited for her in her room.

Shen Yin was packing up his things and talking to him. She asked him about his grandmother, who told her that she had been discharged from the hospital two days ago and was now back in her hometown and was being cared for by her parents.

After half an hour, Shen Yin finally finished packing her luggage, and Wang Mengliang helped her carry the suitcase.

When they came to Wang Mengliang's house, he had already cleaned up a room and let Shen Yin live here.

He had already prepared some ingredients in advance, Shen Yin sat on the sofa to rest, her head was a little dizzy, and she leaned on the sofa to rest for a while.

Wang Mengliang began to prepare dinner, and he was washing vegetables in the kitchen. Shen Yin walked over to help, and she felt very happy watching him busy.

"Can you teach me how to cook?" Shen Yin stood next to him and asked.

"Well, you come and cut this green pepper, but be careful, this kitchen knife is very sharp." He handed her a green pepper.

Shen Yin cleaned the green pepper and cut it into small pieces.

When he saw the green pepper she had cut, he nodded, "Well, it's not bad." ”

After Shen Yin was praised by him, he was very happy in his heart, and accidentally scratched a small cut on his finger, and blood flowed out. She took advantage of the fact that he didn't notice it, and secretly rinsed the wound with water, and the blood still kept flowing out.

She went to the coffee table and grabbed a piece of paper and wiped the blood off the wound.

Wang Mengliang walked up to her and said gently, "Where is the wound?" Does it hurt? Let me see. ”

She hid her hands behind her back and pretended not to understand, "Wounds? What wound? ”

He grabbed her left hand, saw the tissue in her left hand at a glance, and put a band-aid on her wound.

"The wound is fine at this point, as long as it doesn't bleed, it's fine." She whispered.

"Don't move!" He carefully applied the band-aid, "Wounds are the hardest to heal in winter, not to mention that you work with your hands, so you shouldn't be injured." He pulled her onto the couch, "You just sit here, and I'll do the rest." He turned on the TV by the way.

He took a packet of potato chips and opened it and handed it to her, "Use this pastime first, remember not to eat too much." ”

She smiled at him and took the chips.

Two hours later, a hearty dinner was ready. Shen Yin sat at the dining table, smelling the fragrance and already salivating, "It is estimated that after eating this meal, I will weigh three catties, but for the sake of food, I don't care about these." "She's already eating.

"I put very little oil, it's a big deal that I'll take you to the morning exercise tomorrow morning." He looked at her eating and smiled slightly.

Shen Yin hadn't heard the word 'morning exercise' for a long time, she shouted a green pepper in her mouth, and said vaguely: "Do you go to 'morning exercise' every day?" ”

"Well, if it doesn't rain, I'll usually go." He replied with a serious face.

Shen Yin stopped talking, she couldn't remember when she got up early except for not going to work.

Wang Mengliang peeled a plate of shrimp for her and put it in front of her. Shen Yin put one in his bowl with chopsticks, and said with a smile: "You don't need to peel so much." ”

He looked at her gently, "You've lost weight lately, eat more." He took a piece of fish and put it in her bowl.

After they finished eating, Wang Mengliang didn't let her wash the dishes and let her sit on the sofa to eat, but she still insisted on helping him wipe the dishes.

Shen Yin fell asleep on the sofa with a blanket, potato chips were placed on the sofa at random, and a few pieces of potato chips fell to the ground. He gently sorted it all out, turned off the TV, and smiled slightly as he watched her fall asleep.

When she woke up, she saw Wang Mengliang sitting on the sofa next to her looking at her notebook, as if thinking about something.

"Are you awake? Why don't you go to bed and go to bed? He looked up at her tenderly.

"It doesn't seem to be sleepy anymore." She gently stretched out her arm and stood up, "I'm going to paint again." ”

Shen Yin walked into the room and saw that the quilt on the bed was packed, she took out the notebook and tablet from the suitcase, sat down at the table and prepared to start drawing.

A gentle knock came in, and she saw Wang Mengliang standing at the door, holding a glass of milk in his hand and holding a blanket, "Drink a glass of milk and rest early." ”

Shen Yin smiled and took the thing in his hand, "Well, you should rest early." ”

He hugged her and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

The next day, Shen Yin woke up in the morning and walked out of the room to see that he had prepared breakfast, "You wake up, let's have breakfast first!" "He was serving a bowl of rice porridge.

"When did you wake up? Why don't you wake me up? She walked over to the table and sat down.

He smiled at her, "I want you to sleep too late." ”

Shen Yin sat down to finish breakfast with him, she went to wash first, and Wang Mengliang finished washing the dishes.

After Shen Yin packed up, he was bringing some gifts downstairs, and she pulled out her suitcase.

Wang Mengliang walked up to her and took the suitcase in his hand, "Have you packed it?" ”

Shen Yin nodded and walked out after him.

"I'll take you home first." He said as he sat in the car.

"Well, I haven't prepared a gift for my grandmother yet, can you wait for me in the town again?"

"I'm ready." He smiled at her and looked at her tenderly.

She didn't tell him that last night she had a dream in which she saw her father's vicissitudes of life, standing in front of her and calling her name, but she couldn't make a sound and couldn't respond to him. When she woke up in the morning, she noticed that her pillow was a little damp, and she realized that she had cried last night.

She said hesitantly, "I want to go to see my father, can you come with me?" ”

Her eyes were slightly red, and he took her hand, "Well, I'll be with you." ”

Under Shen Yin's guidance, he drove to the detention center in the county seat, and after she bought some gifts at a nearby supermarket, Wang Mengliang had already parked her car in the parking lot.

They walked together to the door of the detention center, and an uncle about fifty years old sat at the door with a big belly.

Shen Yin walked to the uncle's side, and he smiled at Shen Yin, "Girl, you're here, you haven't been here for about a month, right?" ”

Shen Yin handed him a bottle of liquor in his hand and said with a smile, "Uncle, how are you doing?" ”

The uncle stared at Wang Mengliang for a moment, then took the thing and asked as if he didn't understand: "Girl, is this your boyfriend?" ”

Shen Yin lowered her head shyly, "Well, her name is Wang Mengliang, how is my father?" ”

"You register here first, there are a lot of people coming to visit today, you have to wait a while." The uncle took a registration form from the table and handed it to her.

At this time, another man in his thirties in a police uniform walked in, "Brother Zhang, is there another person?" ”

The uncle turned his head, pointed at them and said, "This is Lao Shen's daughter, you can help arrange it." ”

The prison guard glanced at them, said with a straight face and a low voice, "You come with me." ”

Shen Yin walked up to his uncle, "Thank you, uncle." ”

"Girl, your dad has been waiting for you for a long time." Uncle said with a smile.

She held his hand and came to a room, there was a small room in this room, Shen Yin put the mobile phone and bag in the basket on the table, Wang Mengliang also put the mobile phone in it, she took out some documents from the bag and handed them to the prison guard, she said to the prison guard: "This is my boyfriend, can he go in with me." ”

After reading the documents, the prison guard took the basket from the table, stood next to them and said, "You wait a minute." ”

Two men came in, a female guard and a male guard, and the female guard said to them, "Now you need to check what you have." ”

They had to cooperate, and after their inspection, the female prison guard said, "You can enter this room." The male prison guard opened the door for them.

The room was small, with only a small round table, four chairs, the lights in the room were on, and it was very quiet.

Ten minutes later, the door to the room opened, and a prison guard stood beside her father, who had his hands handcuffed off and was wearing a dark blue prison uniform.

Shen Yin saw that his father was getting older, and more wrinkles appeared on his face. Her eyes were reddened as she held her father's hands.

"Yin'er, you're here." His father's voice was a little vicissitudes, but looked at her with a smile.

"Dad, how are you doing?"

"Well, I'm fine here, how's home?" His father looked at her and glanced at Wang Mengliang, "Who is he?" ”

She looked at him and said to her father, "Dad, he's my boyfriend, and I'm going to marry him." ”

His father didn't speak, staring at Wang Mengliang.

"Dad, he's Wang Mengliang." Shen Yin was afraid that his father would object, and added.

Her father smiled, a relieved smile on his face, "It's been six years, Yin'er, you've grown up too." ”

Her father took Wang Mengliang's hand and asked, "Where is your home?" How many people are in the family? ”

Shen Yin said angrily: "Dad, why did you start checking your household registration?" ”

Wang Mengliang answered these two questions truthfully, and then said: "Uncle, I really love her very much, please agree to our marriage." ”

Her father smiled slightly: "You have all grown up, and you have a sense of proportion in your own affairs. Wang Mengliang, you have to treat my daughter well, I will hand her over to you now. His father put Shen Yin's hand into Wang Mengliang's hand.

"Thank you! Dad, don't worry, I will always love her and protect her for the rest of my life. Wang Mengliang said firmly.

Suddenly, her father's eyes flashed with tears, and he looked at her and said, "Yin'er, I've worked hard for you for so many years, it's Dad who is sorry for your sisters, and Dad is sorry for this family." His father cried bitterly, "Dad has no right to interfere in your life anymore, he just hopes that you can be happy and happy forever." ”

Shen Yin took the tissue handed over by Wang Mengliang and wiped away the tears in his father's eyes, "Dad, I don't blame you anymore, don't be sad, I was ignorant before, and I said something very excessive to you, I'm sorry!" She cried too.

"Yin'er, I am very happy to see you get married, and I will bless you." Her father smiled.

"Thank you! Dad, you must take care of yourself here, and we will come back to see you. Shen Yin took out a box of bear biscuits and put them in front of his father, "Dad, do you remember this?" When I was a child, every time I celebrated the New Year, you would buy this kind of biscuit for me and Xiaohuan, and we are looking forward to this day the most. Happy New Year, Dad! ”

His father rubbed his hand against the box and seemed to fall into the memory, "Well, Happy New Year!" ”

The prison guard looked at the time and reminded, "Half an hour has arrived." ”

Her father stood up and looked at them with a smile, "Yin'er, take good care of your grandma and Xiaohuan." ”

"Don't worry, Dad has to take care of his body." After Shen Yin finished speaking, he hugged his father.

His father patted her on the back and whispered, "Yin'er, I'm leaving, you guys go back quickly, I'm all right here." ”

Her father was taken out of the room by the prison guards, and Wang Mengliang held her hand and wiped tears from her eyes.

Shen Yin handed over the gift he bought to a prison guard and asked him to pass it on to his father.

When they returned to the car, she remained silent, and Wang Mengliang stayed by her side.

Wang Mengliang sent Shen Yin home, and her grandmother was already waiting for her at the door. Wang Mengliang took Shen Yin's suitcase down, carried some gifts, and walked beside them.

Her grandmother smiled, looked at Wang Mengliang, and said to Shen Yin, "Is this your classmate?" Really nice lad. ”

Shen Yin helped her grandmother into the house, took the things in his hand, busily poured two glasses of water, and brought them to the table in the living room, "Grandma, if I want to marry him, will you agree?" ”

Her grandmother looked at Wang Mengliang carefully, and said with a smile: "As long as you like it, of course grandma agrees." ”

"Grandma, then I'm really going to get married." Shen Yin sat beside her grandmother.

Her grandmother hurriedly pushed the water in front of him, and sat down beside him like an old urchin, "Young man, will you marry my granddaughter?" ”

"Grandma, of course I do." He said with a serious face.

Her grandmother took Wang Mengliang's hand, suddenly became a little angry, and lost her temper like a child, "My granddaughter is my sweetheart, what should I do if you marry her?" ”

Shen Yin noticed that her grandmother's expression was different from just now, and hurriedly went to her grandmother's room to see that she had brought the medicine. Grandma was already crying like a child, and Shen Yin comforted her grandmother while asking her to take the medicine. She gently patted her grandmother on the back, and after a while, she fell asleep.

"Shen Yin, what's wrong with grandma?" He asked with concern.

"Grandma has Alzheimer's disease, which is at an advanced stage. I didn't expect that it would be easy to get sick so quickly. Shen Yin's eyes were red, "I plan to send her to a nursing home after the New Year." ”

He walked over and picked up his grandmother, "Where's grandma's room?" ”

He carried his grandmother to the bed, and Shen Yin covered her with a quilt.

"Shall I stay today?" He said to her softly.

She hesitated for a moment, "No, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, you must go home." ”

He gently leaned into her ear and said, "Shen Yin, let me stay, the place with you is my Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

Shen Yin's face was slightly hot, and she said softly: "Let's cook the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, and after eating, you still have to go home." ”

"Okay." He nodded.
