It's the winter solstice again.

In S City, the most terrifying thing in the winter solstice is the sentence of the wine selling aunt: It's sold out, come back next year!

Winter sake is only sold once a year, for 10 days at a time. The new rice that blooms in October, together with the osmanthus picked after the autumn of Guangfu, makes the wine not only clear in color, but also fragrant and pleasant, which is most suitable for food in winter.

On the night of the winter solstice last year, the torrential rain was spent alone. Where Chen Yuyao was, she didn't ask.

This year, the two of them lived together, and Chen Yuyao naturally explained to her: "Winter wine, I'll do it." If you want to make the sauce, you can do it. Don't make winter solstice dumplings, don't restrain yourself. ”

The people of S City eat four pieces of meat all year round. Eat sauce meat in spring, lotus leaf steamed pork in summer, button meat in autumn, and sauce recipe when it comes to the winter solstice. Its main ingredient is pork belly, after some pickling, boiling, stewing, steaming, the fat meat is smooth and not greasy, the lean meat is fragrant and moisturizing, the meat skin melts in the mouth, swallowing it is full of fragrance.

Rushing Rain smiled and agreed. Immediately afterwards, Chen Yuyao said, "It may be later." But I will definitely come back today to have a 'festival wine' with you. ”

"Okay." Torrential Rain said, "I'll wait for you." ”

Regarding the night of the winter solstice, there is a local saying, "Some eat, eat overnight; If you don't eat it, freeze it overnight. ”

The day before the winter solstice, Chen Yuyao brought back a large bottle of Zero Winter Wine.

"Tomorrow is Thursday, and it's already late when you come back from your evening self-study. Otherwise, don't do it. He said.

Rushing Rain was silent for a while, and said, "The winter solstice night is too long. I can wait for you to come back. ”

Chen Yuyao's winter solstice banquet definitely does not belong to her. Maybe it was with his uncle, Mr. Chen, maybe it was with someone else.

Situ Que is not wrong in saying that Chen Yuyao's important time never belonged to her.

She is the end, but not the end.

"But you have to keep your stomach and eat the sauce I made."

"Okay."

After the evening self-study, Rushing Yu sat in the car arranged by Chen Yuyao to pick her up.

This time, the driver was changed, not Chen Yuyao's exclusive driver Xiao Gong, but Ah Wei.

The rain was a little unexpected, and Ah Wei took the initiative to greet her with a smile, "Miss Jin." ”

"Mr. Zhang. I'm sorry for you. Torrential rain said.

"Don't, just call me Ah Wei." He said, "Mr. Zhang sounds weird. ”

"Are you healed?" Rushing Rain asked.

"It's almost better." Ah Wei smiled, "Thank you, Miss Jin, for your concern." ”

"I'm delaying you from eating the winter solstice meal." Sorry for the rain.

"No one in our family wants to do this." Ah Wei said.

Rushing rain remembered that he had said that there was only one sister in the family who was still in the second year of junior high school.

She looked out the window and saw that it was already raining.

"Is there an umbrella in the car?" She asked.

"Yes." Ah Wei said, "Don't worry, Miss Jin, I will send you downstairs in the community." ”

"Hmm." Rushing Rain replied softly and said to himself, "Today is a clean year." ”

Ah Wei let out a loud abdominal roar in his stomach. He was a little surprised, and hurriedly continued the words of the torrential rain just now, "Clean winter solstice sloppy year, sloppy winter solstice clean year." It rained on the winter solstice this year, so it was a good weather during the Chinese New Year. ”

"Yes." Rushing Yu smiled and turned his head back to the window, "Stop at the fruit shop at the intersection in front." ”

"What are you going to buy? I'll go for you. Ah Wei said.

"No, you wait for me for a while, and I'll come when I go." After the car was parked, Torrential Rain took the black umbrella he handed over and got out of the car.

When the rain came out after picking fruits, I saw Chen Yuyao's silver-gray Porsche parked in front of the pickled vegetable shop across the road.

She followed her gaze and saw Chen Yuyao at the front of the window of the braised vegetable shop.

She gestured to Ah Wei and was about to walk towards the opposite side, but saw Chen Yuyao turn around with the packaged braised vegetables, hugged a woman in a milky white coat beside her, and walked towards the car with an umbrella.

Rushing Rain's smile froze on his lips, frozen in place.

Seeing this, Ah Wei rolled down the window of the car, ignoring the rain splashing in, and he asked loudly, "Miss Jin, what's wrong?" ”

Chen Yuyao had already sat in the car.

"It's fine." Torrential Rain waved at Ah Wei, pulled the car door and sat inside.

When he was about to arrive at the gate of the community, Rushing Rain said: "Just stop here, I'll walk by myself." It's not raining heavily. ”

Seeing her insistence, Ah Wei said, "Okay, Miss Jin take the umbrella, I don't need it." ”

"Here's for you." Torrential Rain handed him a bag of mangoes, "You haven't eaten yet, take this to cushion your stomach." ”

Ah Wei desperately excused himself, and Torrential Rain put the bag of mangoes in the back seat, and without even taking an umbrella, he got out of the car.

Rushing rain came home and started making sauce recipes. When she was done, she took out her phone from her apron and turned it off automatically when she found that it was out of power.

Rushing rain walked out of the living room, looked at the clock on the wall, and saw that it was already pointing to eleven o'clock.

It's time to come back, too.

She hurriedly took off her apron and went back to the back room to just plug in the mobile phone charger, when suddenly it was dark and the power went out.

Torrential rain opened the sliding door and found that the lights were still bright in the unit building opposite.

Is this building the only one without power?

Torrential rain opened the door to verify, only to see the light shining through the occupants of the opposite door.

It seems that she is the only one who has lost power. I haven't seen any arrears notice at the door in the past few days, could it be that the fuse has blown out?

Rushing rain closed the door, returned to the house, found a candle and lit it, and stood on the table.

The phone didn't have any power at all. There was only one candle left. Blindly waiting at home is not the way to go.

Rushing rain thought, it is better to go out and find a place to charge the phone first.

As soon as I got out of the corridor, I saw a person standing under the street lamp not far away.

Zhai Yi.

He stood there quietly with a black umbrella.

Torrential Rain paused and looked at him.

The other party did not expect that the rain would go downstairs at this time. Seeing that the lights were out upstairs, I thought she was asleep.

The two people were separated by a distance of not long or short, each holding an umbrella, looking at each other.

In the end, it was Torrential Rain who walked over first, "You wait for me." With that, she immediately turned back into the hallway, and when she returned to her room, she re-lit the candlelight, took out a box from under the bed, and carried it in her arms and went downstairs.

Rushing rain walked all the way to him and handed the box in his hand to Zhai Yi.

"What is this?" Zhai Yi asked her.

Torrential rain lowered his head.

Zhai Yi opened it and saw that there was an envelope lying inside.

He understood in an instant, the blood in his whole body was rushing up, but it was even colder in the center of this cold night.

"You...... What do you mean? Zhai Yi asked in a trembling voice.

"Thank you, Zhai Yi." "I didn't know that before...... Now, give it back to you. ”

Zhai Yi raised the envelope, and the box fell to the ground with a "snap", he didn't care, and asked, "My money, is it so dirty in your opinion?" ”

"Not really." Rushing Rain shook her head, "I can't owe you any more. ”

If you have more, you won't be able to pay it off.

"Then you can owe someone else?" Zhai Yi said, "Why can anyone but not me?" ”

The same question she had asked before. Torrential rain was stunned.

Because I don't want to hurt you. Because I don't feel worthy of you. Because two people are together, they will lose more.

In an instant, she understood Chen Yuyao.

Rushing Rain smiled bitterly, "If you can't repay it, you can only not report it." ”

"I've never wanted anything in return." Zhai Yi said, "The reason why I did that was only because of ......"

Because you're worth it. He said from the bottom of his heart.

"I can repay you with all I can." Torrential rain said, "Except for love." ”

Just this sentence completely annoyed Zhai Yi.

"I never intended to get it back." He said coldly, his eyes darkened, "You take the money back." ”

When the rain didn't catch, Zhai Yi clenched his hand holding the envelope, and suddenly asked, "Does what you said just now count?" ”

She nodded.

"Can you repay me with everything?"

Torrential Rain was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"Then you stay with me for one night." Zhai Yi said.

Rushing Yu's eyes widened, Zhai Yi couldn't see any emotion on his face, he only asked, "What?" You won't? ”

She shook her head slowly.

Zhai Yi put the 20,000 yuan back in the pocket of the rain down jacket. "Let's go."

“…… Is it okay to change the day? The torrential rain made a difficult sound, "Today is the night of the winter solstice." ”

"So what?" Zhai Yi raised his hand and looked at his watch, and said lightly: "It's almost twelve o'clock." Even if you're waiting for someone, do you think you can wait? ”

Torrential rain does not speak.

"Okay, I'll wait with you." Zhai Yi said, "If it's twelve o'clock, he hasn't come yet......" He couldn't think of how to continue for a while.

I must have been possessed by the devil just now to say such despicable words.

It was purely to anger her, but Rushing Rain was not angry at all, except for being stunned. As if he was going to say something like that.

"Listen to me." Torrential Rain took his words, "I'll wait for him, you can take it and go." She took the envelope out of her pocket again, she bit her lip and looked gloomy: "If he doesn't come...... Everything is up to you. ”

Next, every second is torment. For the torrential rain, it is also for Zhai Yi.

He regretted it. For the one who is waiting for the rain will appear or not, and he will miss her forever tonight.

It's better to let everything end in that little pavilion. At least the sunset that day, it was beautiful.

Although it is heartbreakingly beautiful.

Twelve o'clock arrived, and the torrential rain did not wait for Chen Yuyao.

She stood there for a long time.

And Zhai Yi stood with her, without the slightest intention of urging.

For this point, Torrential Rain is still grateful to him. She glanced at Zhai Yi's watch again, oh, it had been nearly a quarter of an hour.

"Let's go." She said.

Zhai Yi didn't react for a while, "Where are you going?" ”

Torrential Rain looked up at him and didn't speak.

Zhai Yi instantly understood, and when he thought of what he had just said, he couldn't help but blush.

He turned his back and said softly, "I'm sorry." ”

The rain was slightly unexpected.

"I've let you down." Zhai Yi said in a low voice, "I...... I ......" he repeated twice, and finally said what was in his heart: "Maybe I want you to owe me." That's how you'll always think of me. He smiled self-deprecatingly, "It's messed up now, I'm afraid that if you think of me again, your heart will be a little uncomfortable." Sorry ......"

This sentence of "I'm sorry" is not only to say to the torrential rain, but also to himself.

What is the biggest difference between an angel and a devil?

Angels learn to be evil, and it is difficult for them to pass the threshold in their hearts.

"Zhai Yi ......" Torrential Rain called him softly, "If ......"

It's a pity that there are no ifs.

In the end, the words in her heart still stopped at her lips and teeth.

"It's okay." Torrential Rain said, "I can forget about it." ”

It wasn't a big deal in all the bad things she'd been through.

"Thank you." Zhai Yi said in a low voice. He then turned away, never looking back.
