Chapter 19: Oolong
Lin Qingjia woke up in the morning and didn't see Lin Shan. Habitually picked up the mobile phone to check the message, and after a while, I saw the New Year's greetings sent to Yifa. "Ah dog, Happy New Year".
In addition to him, there are also his girlfriends and Fang Ling. Lin Qingjia thought, it feels so good to be remembered, and there is a sense of satisfaction in my heart.
She swiped the screen of her phone and looked at the dozens of group messages thoughtfully.
Lin Qingjia thought, how many people take advantage of the New Year and the festival to send messages to their favorite people in the name of mass messaging.
It's like I've never done it before, both in the past and now. Even if she wanted to give Wang Zhiqiu hair, she didn't have that chance.
The last time he said it, he knew that Wang Zhiqiu liked him, but he never dared to say it.
Everyone is also careful to be friends, but they say everything, "report" each other's work and rest, what they see and hear, as if they are already a couple.
But when he gave up, he was so decisive that he didn't even have a real goodbye.
Leave only a few words explaining the abandonment, and then quietly delete all contact details.
If Wang Zhiqiu's decisiveness was not planned for a long time, Lin Qingjia really couldn't think of anything else.
"In fact, there is no Changting Ancient Road for the real farewell, and there is no persuasion to have a glass of wine, that is, in the same morning as usual, some people stayed yesterday."
I don't remember where I read such a text, Lin Qingjia felt that it was really tailored for himself. It's just that in the vast sea of people, there will be thousands of people who feel this way.
It is also like the opening words of Tolstoy's "Anna Karenina": "Happy families are all alike, and unhappy families have their own misfortunes." ”
The truth is the same, family affection is like this, and so is love; This is true in China, and foreign countries are no exception.
It's like vulgar lines, there are all ages. Fortunately, Wang Zhiqiu didn't say, "You are a good person."
The hateful Wang Zhiqiu, I thought of him again during the New Year. Lin Qingjia chose a few important replies, and only replied to Xiang Yixian.
Yes, seconds back, what does it feel like you to be a second back. is to guess that he is guarding his mobile phone, waiting for your news; I still think he happened to be playing, and when I saw it, I went back.
Lin Qingjia is confident that he is the former. Obviously, she and Xiang Yi have known each other for a short time, but she always feels that Xiang Yi is such a person who will return to her in seconds.
This is a bit like Sanmao said: "When I smile, my face is like a spring flower, it will definitely be able to move people, no matter who he is." ”
Sometimes she has an inexplicable feeling that she deserves to be like this. It's worth being missed, it's worth being recalled, it's worth having an excellent boy.
She didn't know that this was a sign that she was also becoming good and confident.
"I'm going back to my hometown" Lin Qingjia also just arrived yesterday, and Xiang Yi didn't know it yet.
"Me too", "And! I'll tell you! Xiang Yi replied quickly, as if something interesting had happened.
"Say it quickly, say something sad, say it and make me happy" Lin Qingjia is typical of watching the excitement and not thinking about it.
"......", "Are you still that smart, cute, gentle and generous senior sister??? Xiang Yi was helpless, he couldn't fight Lin Qingjia, so he had to do so.
As soon as Lin Qingjia saw his words, he felt mad. "I was wrong......". There is no way, smart children will "see the wind and steer".
"Hahahaha", "I'll tell you", "I drove into the river yesterday". Xiang Yi saw her react like this, and happily said her stupid things.
"Little Xiangzi", "You're not going to laugh at me to death" and attached is an emoji of the panda man bending over and laughing out of tears.
The voice of the eldest aunt came from outside the door, telling her to get up and eat, and Lin Qingjia and Xiang Yi ended chatting.
When he was about to tie his hair, Lin Qingjia found that the rubber band was not on his wrist. While looking for a rubber band, I found a red envelope under the pillow.
It was Lin Shan who put it. Lin Shan has been giving her red envelopes every year since she worked. Obviously, my sister is not much older than herself, but she looks like a sister.
Of course, it's not just about money, it's about this heart. What girl doesn't love beautiful clothes, nice bags and new lipstick.
Lin Shan and her peers won't talk about it, and they are not much older than her. If she doesn't give out red envelopes, no one will say that she is not thoughtful, so she can use the money to buy a new lipstick and a new dress.
The first meal on the first day of the Lunar New Year was eaten by the uncle's mother's house. Before eating, the elders in the family took turns to give Lin Qingjia red envelopes.
I used to be my favorite part when I was a child, but when I grew up, I felt embarrassed.
When I was a child, I took a red envelope during the New Year, and I always said the auspicious words that I could remember to my elders.
The elders are happy not to say anything, and they can also be praised for being smart and sweet-mouthed.
When I was a child, I liked to listen to the praise of my elders and felt that my ability was fully affirmed.
And if you get praise, you will have a special face in front of your peers.
Sometimes the friends are secretly competing with each other, and they all want to prove that they are the most popular one.
Of course, the object of Kobayashi Qingjia's competition for favor is only Kobayashi Yu. At that time, they all thought that the praise of their elders and teachers was the supreme honor.
And now, the more I read the book, the more I am ashamed to express it. So much so that every time I take a red envelope, I feel ashamed and lacking confidence.
She didn't know how her elders thought of her changes. So every time I receive a red envelope, I show a very embarrassed look.
so that they know that they are ashamed to express and to accept.
Even if she was pretending, she didn't want her elders to misunderstand her and think that she didn't respect them.
Lin Qingjia herself knows very well that she loves her parents and respects her relatives and elders.
She didn't think it would be disrespectful not to say auspicious words, but maybe they would. So she didn't want to chill them, so she had to show that she was just shy.
After everyone took their seats, Grandpa remembered that he had just picked the washed vegetables and forgot to bring them with them in their old house.
Because he was embarrassed to receive the red envelope just now, Lin Qingjia hurriedly said that he would go over to take it.
After listening to her, Lin Yu, who was about to get up, sat down again.
"The dish is on the brick counter next to the kitchen tank," Lin Yu said to him. Lin Qingjia glanced at him, wondering if he had clairvoyance or nonsense.
She didn't ask, but went. Anyway, the place of the old house is there, even if Lin Yu coaxes her, she will see it if she looks for it.
Lin Qingjia forgot that grandpa has always behaved in a disciplined manner, and things have always been not put in disorder. So Lin Yu also remembered that if he said that he was there, he must be there.
After she left, Lin Yu still laughed at Lin Qingjia in front of everyone for not believing him.
also provoked the elders to laugh at their enemies, and made trouble from childhood to adulthood. Lin Yu was depressed, he was obviously bullied by Lin Qingjia when he was a child.
Here, Lin Qingjia arrived in the kitchen and quickly got the food basket. When I was about to go back, I suddenly found that my grandmother's big had entered the house.
She was chased and bitten by a big rooster when she was a child, so she was always scared, and she didn't dare to move when she saw it.
She felt that this was not the way to go, so she found a slender stick near the stove to defend herself. The kitchen is on the right hand side of the entrance door of the old house, and the big rooster is at the doorway.
She quietly walked to the kitchen door and hurriedly ran out while the big rooster was not looking. Who knew that as soon as she moved, the big turned around.
It held its head high, its small eyes widened, the hair on its neck stood up obliquely, and it stared at Lin Qingjia fiercely.
Lin Qingjia hurriedly ran towards his uncle's house while waving his stick, and screamed and shouted Lin Yu's name.
Later, Lin Yu told her that he thought she was being told by someone else, so he could shout out that heart-rending voice.
Just as she was about to run to the door of the uncle's house, the stick broke. Even if the stick is broken, she is reluctant to throw away the only "weapon" of her mobile phone.
And the door was closed, she was holding things in both hands, and she couldn't open the door at once.
He panicked there, and there was some obvious crying in his voice. Since the stick was too short to threaten the big rooster, it lunged forward.
Lin Qingjia was so frightened that he jumped on the spot and smashed the vegetables in the basket at it. Just when she felt like she was going to be bitten hard, Lin Yu appeared.
With a broom in his hand, he quickly blocked in front of Lin Qingjia, waving the broom to scare off the big rooster.
Lin Qingjia had already cried, although she was not bitten in the end. Looking at the big rooster's sharp and curved beak, Lin Qingjia shuddered.
And he looked at the vegetable leaves scattered on the ground, and the empty basket. Lin Qingjia was aggrieved, and squatted down angrily to pick it up.
"Don't pick it up, it's all dirty like this," Lin Yu looked down at her and said to her.
Looking at the vegetable leaves stained with mud powder and finely chopped chicken manure, Lin Qingjia viciously poured out all the vegetables in the vegetable basket.
Then he suddenly snatched the broom from Lin Yu's hand and chased after the big rooster like crazy.
Lin Qingjia was very annoyed, and the good dishes were ruined like this. It's obviously just a small thing, and I can't do it well.
But the big rooster is very fierce, and he is really afraid. The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, and finally I couldn't help crying.
Lin Yu looked at Lin Qingjia silently, watching her run around the old house again and again.
After the big was scared away by her, he cried without an image.
After crying, he still took his phone and looked in the mirror. After confirming his image, he walked up to Lin Yu and returned to the table with him.
Lin Qingjia told everyone what happened just now, and coquettishly asked her grandmother to kill and eat the big.
Mother Lin interrupted her and didn't let her speak again. also because of Lin Qingjia's oolong, the family had a very pleasant meal.
Later, Mother Lin told her that the big was kept by the hen when she hatched the chicks in the future.
Grandma is also counting on more chicks in the future and will lay more eggs.
Lin Qingjia suddenly became curious again, why did the old hen need a big rooster to hatch the chicks.
Mother Lin glanced at her with disgust, "Can a hen hatch chicks without a rooster?"
Lin Qingjia retorted to her mother again, aren't these eggs still given to her, then she just doesn't want them.
I just hope to kill this fierce big rooster and relieve my hatred.
She still clearly remembers what her mother said at that time. "Grandma is old and has nothing to look forward to. You make her feel like you need her, and she's happy."
It turned out that my mother thought so long-term and thoughtful. Lin Qingjia also realized that he didn't see the shortcomings of the problem and didn't care enough about his grandmother.
She had always thought that she would honor her grandparents in the future. So now I use the excuse that I am still in school, and I am not in a hurry to fulfill my filial piety.
On this day, she suddenly felt that things were not going as you expected. Not all of them can wait for when she is free, when she is in the mood, and when she wants to go back......
Otherwise, there would not be such a poem as "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to raise but does not wait".
