Chapter 210: Farewell
Although there are no busy streets and bustling high-rise buildings in the small northern city, the people living here can still live and work in peace and contentment, and live a comfortable life.
On a wide road, a white sedan sped by, bringing up showers of snow on the side of the road, and people standing on both sides of the crosswalk rubbed their hands and stomped their feet, or rubbed their frozen red cheeks, and the cold wind howled by, and people turned their backs to resist the cool breeze.
Some of the large and small shops on the roadside have closed their doors, and there are two red Spring Festival couplets pasted on the door, and some stores are still open at the end of the year to fight for more protection for their families.
Xiao Qing drove the car intently, she put on a light makeup, her beautiful hair was curled behind her head, her delicate cheeks were charming and seductive, and her unfathomable beautiful eyes were tactful and melodious, as if she was choking on a puddle of lake water, clear and bright, and the beauty was maddening.
She wears a light blue short cotton jacket on her upper body, half-open clothes, a white knitted sweater on the inside, a pair of black slim jeans on her lower body, and a pair of brown boots.
Jin Chen sat in the co-pilot, he peeked at Xiao Qing from time to time, as if a thousand words came to his mouth, and it was like a fish in his throat, his expression was sad, and his lips squirmed unconsciously.
"What do you want to say?"
Xiao Qing was the first to speak, breaking the silence in the car, her words were cold, and even the two delicate willow eyebrows were wrinkled into a perfect arc.
Jin Chen coughed lightly and muttered: "Wife, I have changed my ways, I know that I was wrong, you can forgive me this time, I am also drunk and gaffe, and I have done some things that I can't look at directly, but who will not make some mistakes in their lives." ”
"You will rot in your stomach these words, when you come to my house in a while, remember not to talk nonsense, the reason why I didn't tell my mother is because I am afraid that she is too old to bear the blow, but you also have to have some self-knowledge."
Xiao Qing said coldly, she glared at Jin Chen, and there was a look of disgust on her white cheeks.
Jin Chen leaned back on the seat, and after hearing these words, he straightened his glasses and said sadly: "Wife, I..."
"Don't call me wife, you are also a highly educated person, please pay attention to your words and deeds."
Xiao Qing retorted sharply, she seemed to be extremely disgusted with what Jin Chen had done.
Jin Chen's eyes were blank and sad, he took off his glasses, gently rubbed his somewhat dry eyes, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Qing, a husband and wife for a hundred days, my Jin Chen's drunken mess makes you grief-stricken and unforgivable, but it's good to say that we also had a happy time together, do you remember when we just met abroad?" ”
Xiao Qing pursed her lips, and her beautiful eyes seemed to flow with that warm past.
Jin Chen saw that she was speechless, so he said lightly: "At that time, I was still a poor student, I had just arrived abroad, I didn't understand the language, and the cultural exchange was extremely difficult, so that many people rejected me, ridiculed me, and slandered me. ”
Jin Chen's voice was full of emotion and sadness, he paused, and continued: "It was you who took the initiative to stand up and protect me and were willing to be my friend, do you know how happy I was at that time?" At that time, I was thinking, just look at you from afar, when you celebrated your birthday, I saved up a month's money, worked everywhere, worked as a tutor, delivered gas, just to buy you a necklace, I clearly remember, when you put on that cheap necklace, on your bright cheeks, the kind of joy and happiness you look forward to. ”
When Xiao Qing heard this, her suppressed emotions finally broke out, she parked the car on the side of the road, tears came out of her eyes, her thin body trembled slightly, she covered her cheeks and cried in a low voice.
Jin Chen wiped away the tears in his eyes, approached Xiao Qing, took her in his arms, and choked softly: "Wife, being able to marry you is a blessing that our Jin family has cultivated for eight lifetimes, how can I hurt you and do some unsightly deeds, I am really wrong, no one is perfect, I swear here today, if there is another time, I Jin Chen's five thunders will hit the top, I will not die well, and I will never be able to..."
"Don't talk about it."
Xiao Qing covered her mouth and slowly raised her head, there were tear stains on her beautiful cheeks, and her lovely expression was very pitiful.
A few drops of sad tears, as if melting all the bitterness in the world, Jin Chen hugged Xiao Qing tightly, and the last apology also became speechless, in this long winter, in a white car, there was a sad couple, clasping each other's hands again.
I had stitches on my arm, it looked like a centipede lying on it, but Wang Ling said happily that it was very individual, I was a little short of breath, and when I returned to the basement, it was already more than one o'clock in the second half of the night, and the scumbag brother was full of alcohol and was sleeping soundly, and even Qin Li's room was full of rhythmic snoring.
I climbed into bed lightly, making a rustling sound, and my clothes were completely soaked and very uncomfortable against my body.
I opened the wardrobe, took out a few changes of clothes, and inadvertently kicked the duffel bag at my feet, I looked down to check, it was the luggage of the scumbag, he was leaving, but my heart was inexplicably a little disappointed, in the year I came to this city, with the company and teachings of the scumbag, let me grow rapidly, whether it is a stall or a store, it is inseparable from his figure.
"You're back."
The hoarse voice of the scum brother sounded behind me, and I hurriedly turned my head to see him turned sideways, looking at me with a tired face.
"Hmm."
I replied in a low voice, threw my clothes on the bed, picked up another cigarette from the bedside table, and lit one.
"Is she alright?"
Brother Scumbag sat up and let out a long yawn, his words filled with vague doubts and worries.
I took a puff of cigarette, sat on the bed, and said lightly, "There is no danger, it is not a big deal." ”
Brother Scumbag sighed lightly, pulled on his slippers, and it was convenient to go out.
I changed my clothes, got into the quilt, picked up my mobile phone, clicked on the WeChat circle of friends, and saw Xue Xinyan post some photos of playing in the United States, with a smile on the corner of my mouth, and saw her standing under the Statue of Liberty, full of energy, smiling like a flower, strolling around the streets of Times Square, holding ice cream in hand.
From the observation deck on the 86th floor of the Empire State Building, overlooking the night view of the entire New York, the indescribable excitement and excitement are all frozen in this limited photo.
The girl with a blue heart, in the only memory I have, was so flawless, delicate and charming.
Brother Zam walked in with a yawn, looked at me and said, "I'll leave at six in the morning, you take care of yourself here." ”
I put my phone aside and reluctantly said, "Brother scumbag, I'm not selfish, but I still hope you can come back soon." ”
Brother Scumbag lit a cigarette, took a puff gently, and said thoughtfully: "There are a lot of things at home, after all, I haven't been back for a long time, if the construction of your store ends early, then you might as well go back for a reunion." ”
He flicked the cigarette ash and continued: "Qin Yan and I are gone, Qin Xiaolan's girl has also gone home for the New Year, you are left alone in this city, don't make yourself too miserable, the New Year is to have fun and congratulate your relatives and friends, although you can't leave here, try to find some time to accompany your family." ”
I nodded, a little sad, I have been able to get to this day, thanks to this group of lovely friends who have reached out, but now they are all returning home one by one, and they can't help but feel a little lonely and alone.
I only slept for three hours, then got up and dressed, and began to prepare breakfast, I went to the breakfast shop across the street, wanted to buy a few steamed buns, and found that the boss had closed down and gone home, so I had to go back to the yard, boil a pot of rice porridge, boil six eggs, and mix a plate of cucumber pickles.
Walking to the basement, I knocked on Qin Li's door, but there was no movement, I leaned on the door again to listen, and the sound of Qin Li's sleep came from inside.
I opened the door, walked over to his bedside, and whispered, "Hey, get up, or you won't be able to catch the car." ”
Qin Yan pursed his mouth twice and whispered: "Sleep for a while, it's still early." ”
I looked down at my watch and thought to myself, "Hell, I'll walk home if I don't get up."
"Don't snooze, get up quickly."
I nudged him, raising my voice.
"Oh, what are you doing?"
Qin Qi sat up with a hula, he looked at me sleepily, squinted his eyes and said, "Xue Yao also wants to go back with me, it's a big deal to drive away if it's late." ”
"What?"
I exclaimed, I didn't expect Xue Yao to go back with him for the New Year, it really subverted my imagination.
Qin Tong rubbed his swollen Lao Gao's eyelids, looked at me and said, "What's the surprise, what do you think, if I bring Xue Yao back, my parents will see that my daughter-in-law is so beautiful and sensible, gentle and virtuous, maybe they will buy me a house as soon as they are happy." ”
I sighed for a while after hearing this, this kid usually doesn't see anything outstanding, but I didn't expect that in this matter, he was so ingenious.
After breakfast, I picked up Zhang Xueyao and went straight to the train station, along the way Qin Yan was explaining Zhang Xueyao's homecoming, such as his father likes to drink Biluochun, his mother likes to drink boiled water, etc.
Zhang Xueyao listened drowsily, and plucked his eyes from time to time and said: "If your parents dare to show me a look, I will turn around and leave, I don't care what the New Year will be, I will go back with you this time, my parents are 10,000 opposed, can't you protect me more?" ”
Qin Yi hugged her and said: "You are my wife, of course I have to protect it, but now is a critical moment, success or failure is in this move, while the two of them are happy, of course, all kinds of flattery, say more good things." ”
"Then you are incapable of yourself, and you have to gnaw at everything."
She pinched Qin Yan and made a nonchalant expression.
There are many people in the train station like ants gathering, and the radio horns are constantly broadcasting the train itinerary, some are carrying sacks, some are carrying luggage bags, some are holding children, some are sleeping on rest chairs, some are queuing up to get tickets, some are bowing their heads and playing with their mobile phones, the voices are boiling, extremely noisy, and passengers from all over the country gather in this place, just to be able to go home as soon as possible and reunite with their relatives.
I waved goodbye to the scumbag, there was an indescribable sourness and melancholy in my heart, the tear-jerking parting, like a long sigh, before I could say take care, I was drowned by the long train and the wriggling crowd without a trace.
Brother scumbag is gone, Qin Yan is gone, even Zhang Xueyao is gone, I am sitting alone at the exit of the station, seeing those shouting crowds, I instantly feel a little lonely, I stood up, lit a cigarette, walked in the direction of my car, just walked a few steps, was entangled by an aunt about fifty years old.
"Young man, do you want to stay in the hotel? Very cheap, with wireless internet, able to shower. ”
I glanced at her and whispered, "No, thank you." ”
She asked reluctantly: "Where are you going, I can find a car to take you there." ”
I didn't say a word, and continued to walk forward, but my aunt still chattered, "Where the hell are you going?" Eat or not? I have all kinds of snacks there, and it's about to be the New Year, and I don't close there, and I can eat a lot of free goodies. ”
I frowned, put my hands in my pockets, and walked straight forward.
Auntie has a kind of perseverance not to give up in the Yellow River, she followed me step by step, after a moment of silence, she said with a strange face: "I still have all kinds of good-looking little sisters there, if you like it, I can..."
"Fuck off, fuck."
I turned around and roared, a fierce look in my dark eyes.
My aunt glared at me and scolded me softly: "What kind of beating, poor and sour, I don't have money to find my little sister, what are you angry at me." ”
After she finished speaking, she left in a huff.
I let out a long breath and looked at the endless flow of people, and I felt that I had never been more desolate than I was now.
I suddenly remembered that in "What is Home", Zane said a sentence: where the heart desires, the past is the same, life is like a reverse journey, a reed is sailing, hope is worth waiting, and disappointment is worth experiencing.
