20. Nightmare
【…… Ay? Why is that bargain so familiar? It seems to be ...... Hu Yi?
I immediately stepped forward to greet him with a smile on my face. I thought he would be suspicious of me because of yesterday's incident, but he always accosted me happily.
In fact, Hu Yi's situation here is really not good, and almost everyone looks at him coldly. The vegetable seller did not want to sell him vegetables, and the meat seller did not look at him, so he came to the market early to buy them, and now he has a small bag of vegetables in his hand, which is not enough to eat for two days.
I finally saw a kind-faced old lady, and I wanted to come and try it, but who knew that this old lady was so fierce that she almost didn't pick up a cane, so frightened that he ran away with his own vegetables. When I turned around, I saw a stinky boy laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist.
He shrugged at me helplessly: "You can see it, I can't live anymore." If I die, scatter my ashes on the land I love! ”
"Pull it down," I said, "give me the money, and I'll buy it for you." ”
Hu Yi took out the money in a daze, and I took the money and turned around and got into the crowd. Hu Yi had nowhere to go, so he squatted in a place where he was out of the way with the bag of side dishes. Warm eyes stared at the various crowds of people who walked around him, and their faces flickered and darkened.
In the territory of Xianghai, I naturally know who has good and fresh pork, whose vegetables are cheap, and whose tofu skin is tender and fine. A street from beginning to end, bought a pretty much one.
I was naturally very proud, looking at Hu Yi, who was squatting there in a daze like a fool, I really felt that this person was stupid and stupid, so I patted him on the shoulder with a bad heart, and when he turned around, he was facing a piece of pork. This time I was frightened again, and sat on the ground with my eyes fixed and didn't come back to my senses for a long time.
I laughed and jumped as I carried the vicious piece of pork, and the celery in my hand danced better than the dragon slayer.
Hu Yi looked up at the sky, afraid that it was the first time that he felt deep regret for taking refuge here.
The broken car was poured out of Hu Yi's small dilapidated house, and the back seat was naturally occupied by me.
He was wearing a navy blue sweater and black pants very elegantly, which really didn't match his squeaky mount, not to mention that I was sitting in the back seat, nibbling on rock candy and laughing at him all the way, the two of them were really conspicuous. Just like we did last time. 】
Lin Yilan's eyes appeared in front of him the feeling of embarrassment and audience attention when the two of them came back from the market last time, and I really don't want to have a second time in this life. But the people on the side raised their faces so proudly that their tails were about to fly to the sky. She hurriedly poured cold water on her: "That's a shame." ”
Xiang Hai's face darkened instantly, and he bumped into Lin Yilan with a fierce expression like a bullfight. Lin Yilan stretched out her paw to tickle his itchy flesh, and Xiang Hai immediately wilted, shrunk into a little chick and trembled and begged for mercy.
There were more and more passers-by coming and going, and the two gradually couldn't bear the stares from all directions. Quickly finish the grapefruit tea in the cup and close the door.
Late at night, people are quiet.
Lin Yilan lowered the curtains to cover the street lamps and starlight outside the window, she felt the darkness and returned to the bed, and glanced at her mobile phone at 21:14.
In the darkness, she said to herself, "Another happy day!" Good night, Lin Yilan. ”
She closed her eyes and imagined that the whole world was closed. She will have a good dream, and in the dream there will be a big cake, vanilla-flavored.
The night is quiet, and the moths under the street lamps always come and go—
As soon as Lin Yilan opened her eyes, the whole person was in a state of kneeling, and she sincerely knelt down to worship a snow-capped mountain that could not see the peaks. She was halfway up the mountain, and it was so quiet that she couldn't even hear the wind.
She staggered, and the whole person floated in the air in a daze, watching in amazement as her body knelt, prostrate, and stand; Then prostrate, prostrate, and stand. Like a circle, it has no beginning and no end.
She followed the kneeling man around a few times, always feeling spied on. When he turned around, he met a pair of blood-red eyes.
The owner of the eyes was a huge black dog with drooling in his mouth and a low whimper in his throat.
Without a sense of being grounded, even running away seems impossible. She could only float in mid-air, swallowed by the big black dog's open scarlet mouth.
She screamed and fell, falling into a pool of water, surrounded by pitch black. She didn't know where she was, she could only flutter in the pool. The fear in the heart is colder than a waterhole. Excessive panic is extremely energy-consuming.
She fluttered for an unknown amount of time before she gradually exhausted, her lungs had difficulty breathing, and she began to fall to the bottom of the pool.
The world is quiet—
In the dark, Lin Yilan suddenly sat up sweating profusely and gasped for breath, she looked at the light outside the curtain and eagerly chased after her. Lift the curtains and feel the reassuring weight of the light on your face.
She grasped the curtain with a slightly trembling hand, her eyes fixed on the street lamp outside the window, and exhaled a long, trilled breath. Her breathing calmed down, and the panic and anxiety of falling to the bottom of the pool seemed to be excreted in this way, and she finally heard her own rapid breathing and some rustling sounds around her.
The next morning, Xiang Hai went downstairs in a sportswear, raised his arm and knocked on the door, the door had already opened from the inside. Lin Yilan was also wearing a sportswear, and when she saw the surprise on his face, she smiled faintly.
"Is there anything wrong with your legs? If you can't run, you'll be granted two days off. ”
"Are you afraid of losing?"
Xiang Haiyi raised his eyebrows: "Old place." ”
"Come on!"
There is a mist in the morning. Pink poplar flowers fall to the ground, and they crackle when you step on them. When the wind blows, the catkins are as white as snow, and although they shine like snow in the sun, they can cause headaches for people with respiratory diseases.
Few of the people exercising on the road are elderly, and some are wearing masks.
Lin Yilan held a sullen breath in her chest, and let her limbs wave to her heart's content, turning her brain blank, as if her soul was just squatting on this body, watching "her" run, watching "her" crash into a car in a daze because of inertia.
Xiang Hai grabbed her from behind, and watched Lin Yilan's expression gradually return to her senses from a daze. He stared at her, turned his head to look at the car he had just driven away, his expression became very puzzled, and he leaned into Lin Yilan's ear and whispered: "If you want to touch porcelain, don't choose now, there are witnesses behind, and I can't do perjury for you!" ”
Lin Yilan gradually regained control of his body, but his ears did not receive what he just said, and his eyes looked at him with dull eyes.
"Isn't there enough money to spend? Or do you have a crush on something? Tell me why you want to touch porcelain. ”
A wave of irritability surged into his heart, Lin Yilan shook off his hand, retreated to the side of the road, and retched while holding the poplar tree. Xiang Hai hurriedly went behind her and patted her on the back, Lin Yilan threw away her arm very irritably, hugged the poplar tree and gasped.
Xiang Hai didn't step forward again, and took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it over. Lin Yilan looked at it, reached out and took it to wipe his mouth.
The old people who exercised together didn't understand how the young couple had a good relationship, and their puzzled eyes gradually drifted away, talking about the surrounding life with acquaintances.
Lin Yilan thumped his chest twice and felt a little sober. Looking back, the person was only one step away from her, and the beautiful little lake was full of ripples of concern, and she instantly felt that her sin was unforgivable, and quickly smiled at him apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm ...... A little upset. ”
"It's okay," Xiang Hai smiled at her easily, his eyelashes stained with droplets of water condensed in a sparkling mist, and his slightly long hair stained with fine catkins somewhat obscured his innocent eyes.
He looked at the distant backs of the people who were originally traveling with him, and then frowned at Lin Yilan and complained: "Those people think I am bullying you, and their eyes are very fierce, but in fact, I am the ...... who was bullied."
"I'm so sorry. I sometimes ...... Not very able to control ...... myself"
"I don't blame you," Xiang Hai looked at her panicked, rolled up his sleeves, and raised his chin in the direction of the market: "Buy sugar gourds to eat?" ”
"Huh?"
"If you're in a bad mood, eat something sweet, let's go!"
Kitchen.
Lin Yilan chewed unconsciously with a sour hawthorn in her mouth. The soup boiled in front of her had overflowed, dripping on the fire and snorting. Only then did she suddenly come back to her senses and hurriedly went to get the lid. In a hurry, the lid of the pot fell to the ground, and the ping-pong sound was piercing.
Lin Yilan stared at the lid of the pot on the ground in a daze, and rushed in from the outside: "What's wrong?" What's wrong? Is it hot? ”
"Oh, no...... Didn't get burned to ......"
"Reach out and show me."
As he spoke, he had already taken her hand and examined it carefully. Lin Yilan looked at all ten fingers carefully by him, and his sleeves slipped a few points, revealing the hideous scars on his wrists. She retracted her hand like an electric shock and hid it behind her back, her face tense.
Xiang Hai first stared at her, and finally laughed secretly, and his face was full of embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I'm too charming, I'm really embarrassed to accidentally call you." ”
Lin Yilan scratched her waist, her long eyelashes blinked a few times, and finally bent her eyes.
"The cold spinach and green-skinned radish belong to you, and the Longjing shrimp and sweet and sour tenderloin belong to me."
Towards the sea, add rice to the bowl and chant. His hair grew a little longer, and in order not to block his eyes, Guan Lin Yilan asked for a rubber band and tied a few casually on the back of his head, revealing his white forehead and the back of his neck.
Lin Yilan stretched out the chopsticks for the sweet and sour tenderloin, and saw that the man had a slight sign of wanting to turn back, and the chopsticks quickly turned around and picked up a piece of spinach and chewed it in his mouth.
Xiang Hai secretly pursed his lips, and Hitomi turned a beautiful arc in his eye sockets, and then turned around and put down the rice of the two. He sat opposite, sandwiched a large piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it on the tip of his nose, waited until his lungs were filled with aroma, sighed in satisfaction, and put the ribs in his mouth and chewed on them.
Lin Yilan chewed spinach in her mouth, and rolled her eyes from time to time to look at the person opposite. But the man seemed to have no face and no skin, and his handsome eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, not to mention how cheerful he ate. She resigned herself to chewing a piece of green-skinned radish crunchy.
After Lin Yilan finished cleaning up the kitchen, she saw Xiang Hai coming down from upstairs with a painting box. She went to get the old curtain and glass, and picked up a few more fruits from the fridge to take with them. Lock.
The sunflowers at the door are more than a meter tall, and the dark green leaves are also stained with white catkins. As the bicycle passed, you could hear the rustle of the leaves as if they were saying goodbye or reluctantly. Lin Yilan looked back at the dark green light reflected on the leaves for a long time, until the corner of the wall at the turn blocked everything. She muttered softly to herself.
