26. "Brother, you really understand the hardships of our troubles—"
The birds chirped in their ears, and the clouds in the sky gathered and scattered, scattered and gathered. After a few reincarnations, it will be late.
The two returned home and had a delicious meal. The wet and soft ground at the door is no longer so loose after a day of drying, Xiang Hai inspected Lin Yilan when he was bathing, and a lot of sunflowers were divided into excess branches, and he thought that he would have to prune them tomorrow.
Lin Yilan wiped her face casually after taking a shower, and was about to turn off the light, when there was a knock on the door. She opened the door, Xiang Hai stood at the door with her own bed, and smiled at her: "I've been having nightmares these days, I'm afraid of being alone, can you let me make a bunk here?" ”
Lin Yilan looked at him with hell: "You are a male." ”
"You can tie me up, but you can't help me! If I slept on my own, I would be scared to death, can you bear it? ”
Lin Yilan felt countless crows rattling on his head. She looked at him helplessly: "Don't make trouble, okay?" How old is the man? ”
"I'm not making a fuss," he said, looking at her with mist in his eyes, "can you really bear to watch me scared to death?" In my dreams, many people chased me for money, how could I be rich when I was so poor? And they chased me with knives...... Chase after me, I will fall into the river, and you will not come to save me! There was a big dragon in the river and it bit my leg......"
"Okay, okay......" Lin Yilan held his forehead, "How long are you going to sleep?" ”
Xiang Hai's eyes lit up while holding the quilt: "I think you have to take care of me indefinitely......"
"What? I think about it carefully. ”
Xiang Hai looked at Lin Yilan's meaningful smile, hugged his little quilt tightly, blinked his long eyelashes, and said pitifully: "I haven't lived yet, you have to drive me out...... If you don't want me to live, you can just say it...... Isn't it just a nightmare and scared to death......"
Lin Yilan looked at him so aggrieved that he couldn't do it, and felt that he seemed to be too heinous, so he turned sideways and let him in as if he surrendered. Xiang Hai hugged the quilt, leaned sideways and went into the house very neatly, looking around very strangely, as if this was not his home.
"Wow, can I go around?"
"Feel free to ......"
"Wow, you've got so neatly arranged; Wow, do you have incense in the house, it smells good; Wow, the writing on these two pieces of paper is so nice, eh? This seems to have been written by me! ”
Holding the cover to the sea, the tour is like a scenic spot to see, and comments while watching. Lin Yilan closed her eyes vigorously, got on the bed, and covered the quilt. Xiang Hai was boasting about his words, and when he looked back, he saw that Lin Yilan was gone, and a big bulge bulged under the quilt.
He grunted and pouted, put the cover against the wall, turned off the light, got into the cover, and lay down. Lin Yilan heard that he had finally stopped, slowly put his head out of the quilt, and exhaled softly. It's so noisy!
It was a dark night, the birds had gone to sleep, and only the frogs that had stayed up late were still chirping. Occasionally, a dog barked or two, and the curtains lifted by the breeze crept into the house, and the light of the street lamps crept in quietly through the curtains, and the house was very quiet.
Suddenly, a pair of dark eyes opened in the dark night, and the owner of the eyes lifted the quilt, stepped on the ground barefoot, silently opened the door, and rushed to the refrigerator. There was a rummaging sound in the living room. The man pulled out a few bags of bread and sat on the ground with her legs crossed, gobbling down the bread, the warm light of the refrigerator illuminating the scar on her forehead. She kept stuffing bread into her mouth, even choking herself to her stomach, and she kept stuffing it.
Xiang Hai opened his eyes and looked at Lin Yilan, who was sitting on the ground eating bread in the warm light of the refrigerator, he retreated to the room, took out the medicine bottle from his pocket, shook out two small white pills and threw them into the already cold water cup. He added some warm water to the cup, shook it a few times, put it back on the table, and poured it back into the quilt.
He stared at his watch under the covers for more than 40 minutes before she returned.
She touched the ground on her toes, for fear of alarming him. Three or two steps into the quilt, exhaled heavily, only then did I feel uncomfortable being choked, reached out to the head of the bed and touched the cup, half stood up, drank the water in the cup in one go, only wiped my mouth, and fell asleep.
——
Although the weather is cloudy today, it is still very uncomfortable for everything to be seen against the light of the sun.
After Lin Yilan and Xiang Hai finished breakfast, one of them wore a pair of straw hats, each holding a pair of scissors and shuttling back and forth in the sunflower field, pruning off unwanted small buds and branches. Plough the sunflowers, hoe the grass, and water the sunflowers to the chirping of the birds.
When the sun was at its hottest, the two of them sometimes climbed back into the house, and fished out a green-skinned watermelon from the refrigerator with green light in their eyes to the sea.
Xiang Hai was still unsatisfied, but he also stopped talking, and sat at the gate with Lin Yilan carrying a small stool to blow the wind. The mobile phone in his pocket rang suddenly, he glanced at the call, frowned slightly, turned the phone over, and didn't want to answer.
Lin Yilan glanced at his mobile phone, picked up the cup and drank boiled water. The person on the other end of the mobile phone did not give up, the mobile phone rang again, and Xiang Hai rolled his eyes to the sky, and then took the mobile phone and walked into the distance. Lin Yilan remembered the mobile phone she threw in the room that had long been out of battery, and took sip after sip of boiled water.
Not long after, he came back with his phone. Lin Yilan saw that his expression was a little solemn, her hand rubbed lightly on the wall of the cup, and asked hesitantly, "Yes...... Did something happen? ”
Xiang Hai was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Oh, it's nothing. An old friend who runs a movie theater said that he was about to go out of business and wanted me to bring him a few orders. What do you think? Interested in going to the movies? ”
Lin Yilan sat up straight in an instant like a named child, her eyes wide: "Watching a movie? Why look with me? If you want to bring him business, you can ...... You can ......" She looked left and right, not knowing what she wanted to say next, and her mind was not very controlled. But she knew she didn't want to say this, and some of the words popped out on her own......
What to do?
Xiang Hai looked at her with a panicked face, and pretended to be angry and puffed out his mouth and asked her, "Who do you want to watch with?" I just want to show you! Don't you want to watch with me? ”
"I didn't want to watch with anyone, I ......"
"Then let's hurry up and pack our things, stay outside for a few days and come back, so we can relax! Why are you looking at me like that? Didn't you say yes? ”
Lin Yilan looked at those innocent eyes, his gaze fell on the cup in his hand, and nodded slowly.
"That's right, get up...... I moved this in. You hurry back and pack your things, and we'll leave in a minute. ”
"Hmm!"
Lin Yilan walked quickly to the bedroom with the cup, turned around and came back halfway through, and went outside to collect the clothes before going back to his bedroom to pack his things. Since it was only for a few days, she just cleaned it up. Finally, I stuffed the dead mobile phone and charger into the handbag from the previous time, and sat in the living room waiting for the sea.
Xiang Hai was also cleaning up, and when he came down and saw the clothes that Lin Yilan had brought in, he picked and stuffed a few more pieces into his bag before he bared his teeth. The two said goodbye to the sunflowers waiting at home, locked the door, and went on the road to wait for the car.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the familiar six-seven-percent new van slowly drove by. The two of them looked happy and climbed into the open door of the minivan with ease. The driver, Lao Liu, smiled and entertained the two with a mouthful of white teeth: "Last time, I went back one by one, will the two go back together this time?" By the way, girl, did you say last time that your husband was married or did you marry? I don't have a good memory. ”
The two people who got into the van and just sat down were all stiff, one with a green face and the other with question marks. After a few seconds of silence, the green-faced one's body stiffened even more, and he didn't even dare to move his eyes; The one with a question mark on his face became relaxed and chatted with the driver: "Big brother, you feel so deeply, is it possible that you are in trouble?" ”
The driver started the accelerator, and the minivan swayed from side to side faster and faster. The van driver had a bitter face: "Brother, you really understand our hardships——"
Xiang Hai was amused by his sad kindness and began to chat with the driver. The driver's uncle seems to have endless bitter water, and he has never stopped nagging along the way.
Lin Yilan was lying in the back seat and swaying from side to side with the bumps of the body, his eyes drifting on the scene of the speeding away outside the window, but he wondered in his heart: Why didn't he ask me the whole story? He didn't ask, did he identify the driver's doubts? What does he think now?
Her mind was in a mess, and when the two of them were talking to the loudest, she secretly glanced at the person's expression, which was normal, and even a little happy, and she was a little relieved. The speculation in my heart has gone to the good side again.
The two said goodbye to the driver and got off at the intersection, and each person got off the bus for two yuan and took the bus to the city center.
Xiang Hai has been on the phone since he was on the bus. He got out of the car first, and Lin Yilan got out of the car after him. The surrounding noise drilled into her ears, she frowned slightly, and subconsciously leaned towards Xiang Hai's side. Xiang Hai felt her approach and leaned towards her, and the two of them touched skin to skin like this.
The intimacy of skin contact shocked Lin Yilan reflexively but pretended to retreat as if nothing happened, and the sun that had just been covered by the clouds seemed to quietly rise and heat her cheeks on both sides.
Xiang Hai still called there, and finally said a few words, and simply hung up the phone. Seeing that Lin Yilan was standing a little far away, she reached out and took the bag she was carrying, and tilted her head: "Are you hungry?" To eat or not to eat? ”
Lin Yilan secretly shrunk her stomach, felt a little hungry, and nodded. Xiang Hai smiled at her, tugged at her sleeve and walked forward: "If you know you're hungry, just say it, I won't hold it and not give you something to eat." This place has changed a little bit, let's take a general stroll first, and when we see which store is pleasing to the eye, we will go in and eat, if it is not delicious, we will take a small notebook and remember him, and we will never come ......again next time."
He was talking in front of him, and his words were helpless and funny. Lin Yilan stared at his hand that was tightly gripping his wrist, this hand was white, powerful, and slender, it was really a beautiful hand. His eyes fell to his arm that rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, to the back of the man's slightly sweaty neck, and to the long eyelashes that smiled as his head swayed from side to side.
She felt that the sun preferred to tan her cheeks, and it was not enough to be hot, and now she was estimated to be tanned again, and maybe even tanned. She is not like the person in front of her, who has been sunburned unscrupulously, and she is very white and annoying. Thinking of this, she stared at the back of the head that was swaying from side to side and smiled secretly.
