(40) As long as there are you
Such a sudden fireworks attracted almost the entire building, and even my mother and a few others in the kitchen and hall stopped what they were doing and leaned on the balcony to watch and guess who did it. And I sat on the bed and reacted for half a minute before I connected what Cao Yunxiao said just now with the scene in front of me. After figuring it out, I jumped out of bed with a carp. got up, and then ran to the windowsill without even putting on shoes, and slammed the window open, despite the cold outside.
The biting cold wind mixed with fine snowflakes poured frantically into the house through the window, and I was shivering by the wind, but I still endured it, looking for Cao Yunxiao's figure through the dim lights and brilliant fireworks downstairs.
I admit that the fireworks are beautiful, it lights up the night sky of this Chinese New Year's Eve, and brings an unexpected joy to everyone who has seen it, but at this moment, I just want to see the person who burned this beauty
It's just that in that fireworks, I never found him.
I was anxious to think about how to find an excuse to go downstairs, thinking that it would be good to just look at him, but before I could come up with an excuse, I received a message from Cao Yunxiao.
"Silly Xiaobai, how about it, do you like the New Year's gift?"
"Where are you?"
"I'm sitting on a chair in your neighborhood watching the fireworks, oops, it's so beautiful."
"Don't your parents care about you?"
"I'm out to socialize, I just sneaked out."
"Oh, then do you want to come to my house to eat dumplings?"
"It's here in five minutes!"
I tossed the phone aside, took a few deep breaths, barely suppressed my heartbeat, and then walked to the kitchen as if nothing had happened, and told my mom that Cao Yunxiao was coming.
When my mother heard the news, she almost burned her hands with water when she ordered the dumplings, and then immediately asked me to hurry out and help Fu Chengwen clean up the table, and strive to cook the dumplings before Cao Yunxiao came.
When I left the sight of the parents and began to follow Fu Chengwen to set the dishes and chopsticks, Fu Chengwen asked me in a low voice:
"Did you get the fireworks just now?"
Until now, I had always thought that this was the result of the two of them working together, as it had done in the past. But looking at Fu Chengwen's reaction at this moment, he doesn't seem to know about it. I looked at him a few more times in disbelief, but he kept his head down and did his job, ignoring me. I couldn't draw any other conclusions, so I had to whisper a "yes".
After getting my affirmation, Fu Chengwen didn't say anything. When I saw him like this, I didn't say anything more. Soon the two of us had just set the table and started to help them serve the food, and just as we were serving the last plate of dumplings, Cao Yunxiao suddenly heard the sound of Cao Yunxiao knocking on the door.
I ran over and opened the door to Cao Yunxiao, and as soon as he saw me, he said Happy New Year to me with a hippie smile. I habitually gritted my teeth and wanted to punch him, but he deftly dodged it, past me and first said hello to Fu Chengwen, and then obediently and skillfully posed as an image of "someone else's child", and said some New Year's greetings to the four parents.
I couldn't help but roll my eyes at his performance, but my parents liked it very much, and they were busy asking him to sit down and warm up, and then eat dumplings with us.
Cao Yunxiao was also polite, took off his coat and sat between me and Fu Chengwen, and then the two mothers didn't ask anything for the first time, so they kept picking up vegetables for Cao Yunxiao, and kept asking him to eat more. Eat a little more, and it feels like you're going to eat him like a fat man in one bite. Cao Yunxiao didn't know how to refuse, he ate as much as they gave him, and he ate very happily.
However, he was eating happily, but I felt that the atmosphere at the table was a little weird, but I couldn't say what was wrong. In addition, I have a ghost in my heart, and my heart is too weak to do it, so I don't have the heart to investigate the source of these strange atmospheres.
After eating the meal in a mess, the adults drove the three of us into the room. As soon as he entered the room, Cao Yunxiao immediately took off the disguise of a "good baby" and asked me proudly:
"Well, the New Year's gift I prepared is great."
"You kid made such a big battle, and I'm not afraid that the security guards in our community will find out and be unkind to you."
"I'm so smart, how can I be discovered, I am underestimated."
Cao Yunxiao raised his eyebrows proudly, fell on the bed, and posed like an uncle. I really couldn't get used to his villainous ambition, so I copied a pillow and smashed it on him, and only after covering his face did I ask him:
"When are you going home?"
"Hey, you still drove me away for the New Year, it's too conscienceless, right? Yunxiao, Yunxiao, you can't be so cruel, right? You won't look at me as homeless and living on the streets during the Chinese New Year, then I'm too miserable as a child. ”
Cao Yunxiao said as he threw the pillow and got up, trying to hug Fu Chengwen's thigh. Fu Chengwen easily dodged his attack, then glanced at him and ruthlessly exposed his lies:
"The trick of not bringing a key is too old-fashioned, Uncle Jia will never let you into the house, so if you want to eat, just say it."
"You two really grew up together, and your stabbing skills are really better than the other."
Cao Yunxiao was so angry that he pulled the pillow and sat on the bed aggrievedly with his arms around it. I looked at him helplessly, and finally threw him a roll of the eyes, and then told him to work on the floor with Fu Chengwen at night.
As soon as he heard that he didn't have to leave at night, Cao Yunxiao immediately changed back to a smiling face, and then began to lay the quilt with Fu Chengwen.
I couldn't bear to spoil him, but before turning off the lights, I still asked him uneasily:
"It's okay if you don't come home so late, right?"
"No problem, I've already told Uncle Jia, don't worry. And my parents and the two of them are probably eating happily with those people now, so they don't have time to worry about me, don't worry. ”
"Anyway, don't bother me and Fu Chengwen after you go back."
I muttered, rolled over, closed my eyes and prepared for bed. Cao Yunxiao lay down in the quilt and breathed a long sigh of relief, and said in a satisfied tone:
"This is the happiest day I've ever had when I've grown up, and heck, this family feels really good. If only the relationship between the few of us could be so good all the time, so that I could come to dinner every year. ”
"You just want to be beautiful, if you want to come to eat, there is no door."
"Don't worry, I won't grab food with you, I still have Awen, Awen won't want me."
"She won't give me food, shall we drink the northwest wind together?"
"Whatever, as long as you are there, you can drink the northwest wind."
"You two sleeping on the floor drink the northwest wind, I still have to eat big fish and meat, hurry up and go to bed."
