Chapter 20: New Year's Greetings

The next day, Wang Panpan woke up very late to find that the double bed was half empty and Cao Mingjun had already left. She turned on her phone and saw a message from Cao Mingjun: Dear Pan Pan, forgive me for not waking you up and leaving first. I really don't know how to face you right now, see you next year!

The New Year is approaching, and the snow in Qingcheng is falling a little deeply. The ground is white, and it will be a little dazzling after looking at it for a long time. In the square, children wore snow boots, rolled snowballs, built snowmen, and had snowball fights on the snow that was almost past their boots.

Li Meng passed by the children, watching them run and jump happily and play, and she also smiled. In the snow-covered grass in front of them, two little teddies were also rolling in the snow and chasing after them.

Li Meng raised her gloved hand and caught a few snowflakes, but the snowflakes did not melt immediately, just enough for Li Meng to see their shape.

I don't know if it's snowing in Ma Yifeng, but I heard the weather forecast that the Jiangnan area has also encountered a cold snap. Even if it snows, it won't be such a heavy snow! But it must be cold too! The kind of cold that gives birth to chilblains. Will he still be wearing the gloves Yang Yiyi gave him? Have they all met? Li Meng didn't dare to think about it.

At the class reunion yesterday, she didn't admit that she had a boyfriend, and she didn't know why, maybe because she didn't feel safe!

"Hey, Pan Pan, what's wrong?" Li Meng picked up the phone.

"Meng Meng, let's go pick a couplet! I also want to buy some New Year's goods. ”

The two of them meet at a market that sells couplets and fireworks. Li Meng took Wang Panpan's arm, his eyes searching for the content of the couplet he liked.

"A year of good luck with the spring, the four seasons of wealth rolling in", "people are happy with the family and everything is prosperous, peace and happiness are good year after year", "the family is prosperous, the career is prosperous, the fortune is prosperous, and the fortune is prosperous". Pan Pan picked a "auspicious festival to come, the New Year is prosperous and prosperous", and Li Meng asked for a "new year and a few more joys, and the new year will go to the next level". They bought Fu Zi and Door God again, Li Meng chose some fireworks, and Wang Panpan purchased a lot of New Year's goods, planning to send some to the aunts in the welfare home.

"Pan Pan, you are so sweet, the aunts will be very happy." "That's a must! I don't have any relatives. "Pan Pan, come to my house for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!" "No need, I told Aunt Li to go back for the New Year." "Alright then, you're always welcome to come to my house!"

Wang Panpan nodded, thinking: Aren't you just having a father and a mother and a complete family? What's the big deal! We'll see what happens in the future! I'll have my own little family, and maybe you won't have one if I have it!

Li Meng went to Wang Panpan's house to help her paste the couplet, and the gate was very red with a New Year's atmosphere.

Back in the house, Li Meng saw a pair of shiny men's black socks next to the sofa, and she was embarrassed to ask Wang Panpan, maybe this was something dropped by Panpan's landlord before!

Wang Panpan also found out, didn't Cao Mingjun take it off yesterday? It's miserable, Li Meng shouldn't have seen it! Wang Panpan took advantage of Li Meng's lack of attention and kicked his socks under the sofa.

Before dusk, Li Meng said goodbye to Wang Panpan and went home alone. It's weird, these men's socks don't look like they've been there for a long time! Isn't Pan Pan still in love? How could a man ever come? No matter, I should have thought too much, Pan Pan may not have cleaned the sofa, and the sofa socks were exposed by themselves when he moved slightly.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Meng got up early in the morning to post couplets, and then began to wait for Ma Yifeng to take the initiative to contact her. At night, the sound of firecrackers continued outside, and Li Meng's family gathered around the table to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and her mother finally brought two plates of fragrant and hot dumplings. What time is this, why hasn't Ma Yifeng moved yet? Li Meng absentmindedly ate a few dumplings.

Li Meng didn't tell her parents about falling in love, she was afraid that her father would be disappointed and scolded her loudly. As soon as you go to college, it will be difficult for parents to accept. Li Meng was afraid to see their surprised expressions, and wanted to speak many times but didn't say it. However, there is no need to inform the family seriously in a simple love like this, lest they worry that their daughter will suffer.

"Mengmeng, eat more." "Mom, you should eat more, too." said that Li Meng sandwiched a chicken leg for her and another for her father. "Cheers! Happy New Year! The goblets collided with each other with a crisp sound, and the red wine inside almost overflowed.

The New Year's Eve stayed up to nearly twelve o'clock, and Li Meng was so sleepy that she couldn't hold on. No, I can't fall asleep.

The bell rang on the hour, and as soon as Li Meng got the red envelope with his parents for the New Year, a hurried mobile phone rang. Li Meng picked up the phone in a panic and walked into the bedroom, "Hey! ”

"Mengmeng, happy Spring Festival!" Ma Yifeng's voice came from the earpiece, and Li Meng was overjoyed. "Happy New Year, Kaede. Why did you contact me so late? "I want to give you my best wishes at the first time of the new year!" Our whole family has gathered together for the New Year, and it is very lively here. I miss you! Boom! ......" Listening carefully, Ma Yifeng's voice was a little slurred, as if he was a little drunk.

He talked to himself for a long time, and even the dialect came out as he spoke, and Li Meng seemed to understand it, crying and laughing. "Yifeng, it's not too early, let's go and rest!" Li Meng seemed to smell his wine, and he was upset when he thought about it.

"Okay, you go and rest! I'll eat some more, I'm not going to sleep tonight. They're going to play cards. ”

Li Meng hung up the phone and sat on the bed stunned for a long time. Her mother walked into the room and asked, "Mengmeng! Who's calling? "Oh, one of my classmates called me to greet the New Year." "Haha, it must be a boy who has been calling for such a long time!" Oh no, don't let your mother guess, Li Meng's face turned red when she brushed it. She hurriedly waved her hand to cover herself, "Oh, what a boy and a girl, it's Wang Panpan!" ”

Li Meng's mother was skeptical, but she didn't ask more. "Mengmeng, Pan Pan is a poor child, there are no parents by her side, you have to care more about her during the Chinese New Year!" "I see, Mom. She went to the welfare home for the New Year, which is fine. ”

Li Meng lay on the bed and thought: Why do boys like to smoke and drink? I can't accept these two things the most, and Ma Yifeng still has them for me. He must have been crazy with his siblings when he remembered me so late, but he was really happy to be able to call on time at 12 o'clock.

Thinking about it, Li Meng felt sleepy, and she slowly fell asleep. There was a beautiful castle in the dream, and when the door was opened, Ma Yifeng and a girl were sitting on the sofa in the hall with Erlang's legs crossed. Li Meng tried hard to see who this girl was, but the girl's face became more and more blurred.
