Chapter 049: Warm Winter and Cold Winter

Say goodbye to Li Yongfeng, on the streets of Jincheng in the early winter of the warm winter sun. And the weather is not too warm, if it is not for the golden ginkgo biloba leaves to decorate Jincheng enchantingly, it is really a delusion that spring is coming.

Promise each other never to see each other. This is actually a kind of cruelty, even if the other person is just an ordinary friend. Therefore, Dong Xiaokui was unwilling.

It's just that she can't help it, because she doesn't love Li Yongfeng, or she can't love others. Therefore, he could not give Li Yongfeng any kind of illusion of hope, let alone disturb his pace. Staying away is the only solution.

She looked at the occasional falling yellow leaves outside the taxi, the radio station on the car was broadcasting a travel program, and the sweet voice of the female anchor said that the weather had been fine recently, the scenery around Jincheng was extremely beautiful, and the shocking beauty of ginkgo yellow leaves could be enjoyed in several parks in the city.

She looked out the window of the car as if she hadn't thought of anything. It seems that I have thought about it a lot, and my heart is a little empty. After a long time, Dong Xiaokui seemed to find a place to stop, remembering that Li Yongfeng had just said that Xu Er would be engaged to Ouyang Wei of the Ouyang family at the end of next month. Dong Xiaokui had heard of Ouyang Wei, but he had only heard of this name. Or the last time, when Xu Er took her to Chen Shao's villa to play cards, she heard Chen Shao ask Ouyang: "Your sister has come back recently?" ”

"You mean Vivi?" Ouyang asked.

"yes. Didn't she go to France? Chen Shao fiddled with the teacup, but glanced at Dong Xiaokui inexplicably. At that time, Dong Xiaokui didn't know, but now he knows that glance. Those people who dare to love have long known that the person in the Xu family is Ouyang Wei.

"Well, it's back. Okay, okay, don't mention her. That girl was spoiled too much, and she had a strong temperament, so she didn't like it. Ouyang was very impatient, and looked at Xu Er, who was silent on the side.

Dong Xiaokui thought of the scene at that time, and couldn't help pursing her lips and revealing a sarcastic smile. It turns out that everyone has known for a long time, and the only one who is kept in the dark is her. Probably those people looked at her as silent as water as they looked at the monkeys in the zoo.

Dong Xiaokui couldn't help lowering her head and saw the plain skin on the back of her hand, the string of silver bracelets with some vicissitudes.

You can only be like this. Dong Xiaokui said to herself. Finally, tears still fell on the back of his hand. It's just a drop or two, though, and then look up. She felt relaxed again, he was engaged, and her little thoughts were gone, and she could find a reliable person to live a plain life in the future.

The address given by Mo Yan is in a teahouse near her home, with a bit of Western-style decoration, which is not Dong Xiaokui's style. For Dong Xiaokui, who came out of a big family, even if it is the declining Dong family, the tea ceremony is also one of the contents that must be inherited. The Dong family not only has its own tea ceremony, but also several tea trees that have been passed down for many years, and naturally there are some new varieties. The technique and art of making tea was taught by Dong Xiaokui by his grandfather and father since he could remember.

The tea ceremony is the quintessence of ancient Chinese culture, and it is always uncomfortable to be in a teahouse decorated with Western-style murals. She found the table number, it was a well-looking young man, and Mo Yan was whispering to him.

Dong Xiaokui stood up and walked over. Everyone tacitly introduced each other, and politely said that everyone is working hard in the city, and it is always good to have multiple friends.

This sentence is actually a way out for both sides, a step for both sides, and a way to ease the atmosphere, so as not to make both sides uncomfortable.

Dong Xiaokui nodded to the man, and didn't know where to start, so they were silent with each other, and silently said that they naturally withdrew first because the supermarket had something to do.

The two were silent for a long time, and they only cared about tea. A pot of tea was drunk, and the man said a little nervously: "I ——, a blind date for the first time, and I don't have much experience."

When Dong Xiaokui heard this, she couldn't help but smile all of a sudden. This smile can be regarded as easing the atmosphere, but it opens up the conversation. When it came to the future, there were many inappropriatenesses, so when I left. Dong Xiaokui settled his share of the money and said: "I don't talk darkly, and I don't like ambiguity the most." I'm afraid I won't be able to meet Mr. Zhang's requirements for the right talent. I'm not someone who can be a full-time housewife at home. ”

"Miss Dong——, I'm just—" The man was a little embarrassed.

Dong Xiaokui waved his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang's conditions are superior, and he is really good." It's just that we don't fit. ”

"This is the first conversation." The man said that he felt that he had said too much and had lost his dignity, so he closed his mouth and slowly stood up, his face finally a little ugly.

"Mr. Zhang has a cheerful personality, and he is not a person who hides it. I was made very clear just now. In short, it is a pleasure to meet Mr. Zhang today. Dong Xiaokui stretched out his hand.

The man finally smiled and took her hand. So, this first blind date ended in a cordial and friendly atmosphere. Afterwards, Mo Yan asked why. said that this man is very traditional, has a classical cultivation, is also very talented in literature, very bookish, and has a very good work unit, his parents are retired teachers, and this man is an only child.

"No. He needed someone who could be a full-time housewife at home. Dong Xiaokui replied.

Mo Yan didn't speak for a while, and only said for a long time: "Isn't your ideal to be a husband and a child?" Being a full-time housewife at home does not affect your ability to write works that move people's hearts. Don't bother with the distractions outside, isn't that what you're thinking? ”

This sentence is in one sentence. This is indeed what Dong Xiaokui wants, to make a sum of money, buy a house in a small town, marry an ordinary man with responsibility, her husband is working hard outside, she is at home with her husband and children, and she writes her own works and studies Chinese mythology in her free time.

Dong Xiaokui was silently said and didn't say a word. The silent words did not show any mercy: "At the moment, you have not completely come out of that person's shadow. So, you are not suitable for blind dates. When you see other men, you subconsciously compare that person to him, right? ”

Dong Xiaokui lowered her head and drank water, acquiescing to her statement. After a long time, Mo Yan knocked her on the head and said, "Worry-free, why are you so brainless? Can't you see the situation between you? ”

"You can see it. It's going to take some time, don't worry. Dong Xiaokui put down the glass in her hand, the little residual temperature of the hot water quickly flowed away in the winter, and her fingers were cold and abnormal.

"Hey, some people meet because of fate, some people are resentful, some people are wronged, and some people are evil. Whether you can solve it or not, you can understand it by yourself. It's just that the detour of your youth has to be taken by yourself after all, and I can't help you. The only one to introduce you to some people I think is pretty good, maybe you can still see it, so I'll be there. What kind of gold and jade relationship, made in heaven and earth, are all fucking fools in literary works. When you reach the time to really face life, you can't wait to drag out those authors who preach long live love, and bread is like dung. Just make do with it. Mo Yan was already very excited when he said it.

Dong Xiaokui nodded, expecting that she was also a person with a story and had some profound past.

"Hehe, Sister Mo Yan is talking about the philosophy of life again." Lane Qin came in from outside, took off the tassel shawl, changed his slippers and walked over.

"Why are you here? Didn't you say there was a class tonight? Mo Yan asked.

"Well, there is a class tonight, so I'll come over for dinner and take a look at you guys by the way, I haven't seen you for a long time." As soon as he sat down on the sofa, he shouted, "Mahjong, come here." ”

Mahjong is a Su Mu raised by silent words, and he likes to sleep the most. Hearing the cry of the piano, he just looked at her and continued to sleep. Dong Xiaokui was laughing on the side, but he thought of the well-behaved Long Feihu Wing, and remembered the bits and pieces in Ning Yuan.

After thinking about it for a moment, he suddenly came to his senses and felt that he should not worry about anything related to him anymore. She shook her head, but Lianqin said, "Don't worry, if you want to end a relationship completely, you have to start a new relationship." Hmph, love as much as you want, girl, don't lose the beautiful scenery. ”

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." Dong Xiaokui pinched her face and got up to help Mo Yan wash the vegetables, in fact, she thought the same way. Someone you should find to love, you will forget that person.

From that day on, Jincheng has been sunny for the first time. Dong Xiaokui also started another life: in addition to working and sleeping, it is a blind date.

She went from an embarrassing and uncomfortable first-time blind date to an old fritter on a blind date. From the initial discomfort, to the later ease, coping with ease. Even raised the blind date to the height of entertainment.

However, every blind date is uneven. Sometimes, it is Dong Xiaokui who feels that others are not suitable, and sometimes, it is because people feel that Dong Xiaokui is not enough for his standards.

Of course, blind dates will meet all kinds of people. I remember one time, there was a so-called sales manager of a certain cosmetics. originally had a good impression and was very good at talking, but unexpectedly, the more he talked, the more energetic he became, and he sold cosmetics to Dong Xiaokui.

Dong Xiaokui was surprised, and immediately thought that this person did not distinguish between public and private, and was not suitable. So, excuse and go.

Another time, I met someone who brought my mother on a blind date. Single mothers are very hostile to her. Dong Xiaokui lamented in her heart, and finally had to smile and say when the mother asked a harsh question: "I don't think I meet your requirements." ”

At the same time, she thought viciously in her heart: It's strange that your son can marry a wife.

There are so many things like this that Dong Xiaokui didn't go on a blind date with the purpose of finding someone to spend time with, but to do a radio program called "Today I Went on a Blind Date".

Mo Yan and Lianqin also talked about Dong Xiaokui at the beginning, but later they didn't bother to talk about her, and they didn't even bother to arrange a blind date. Na Mo Yan said, "For your happiness, I am about to sin all people." Little Ancestor, you can just pick one. ”

Dong Xiaokui said: "I have tried to lower the standard as much as possible. ”

As soon as these words came out, Lianqin and Mo Yan "groaned" at the same time and walked away. Dong Xiaokui stood in place for a while, put on her shoes, and said, "I'm leaving." ”

Mo Yan rushed out of the kitchen and said, "Just casually talk about you, you are so stingy?" ”

"How could I be stingy. It's urgent today. I'm going back to the station. Dong Xiaokui wore a coat, in fact, she just wanted to be alone and quiet.

"I'll send you a meal. It's time to take a taxi now. Besides, it seems like it's going to rain again this day. Mo Yan looked out the window, the bare tree, a few withered yellow leaves hung there.

"No, it's the end of the month, and the radio is always busy, you know." Dong Xiaokui buttoned up her coat, took her bag and pushed the door open and walked out, but mahjong rubbed at her feet twice, screamed coquettishly twice, and then walked away.

She touched the door, but was stunned, and her intuition was that this was not mahjong, but tiger wings. In the end, I am sad in my heart, the day after tomorrow is the day of his engagement.

"Hey, you guy. After the radio station was busy, I came over to drink soup, I stewed some bone broth, this year's cold wave has a wave*, much colder than last year. You're alone, and you've been busy lately, so you must be too lazy to stew. Silent words had no choice but to settle for the next best thing.

"I'll take a look, I don't know what time it will be busy." Dong Xiaokui smiled at Mo Yan, and quickly turned around and walked outside the community.

She just wanted to be alone for a few days. No matter how quiet she is, it would be a lie to say that she is not sad. Although they have not made any commitments, they have not had any beginning, but there is a process. From the time of meeting, acquaintance to walking together, the line between life and death has also been experienced.

Even if she is a woman infiltrated by the Dong family, she is a woman who has to make decisions for herself since she was a child, an orphan and a widow who sees through the world and tastes a woman who is indifferent to family affection, but she is young after all, and when she meets Xu Er, she has also had many beautiful dreams.

Standing on the side of the street waiting for the car, the wind blows like a knife. Jincheng is really cold this year. Sure enough, it was time to get off work, and she stood for a long time before she got a car, found a mutton hot pot restaurant near her residence, and ordered a single pot. Snow-white mutton broth, steaming hot.

The business of this shop is very hot, basically full, surrounded by a group of friends or a family together, eating lively. As a result, her form became more and more apparent, originally, eating hot pot alone felt very strange.

Dong Xiaokui took the excitement of others as the background and ate here with swords, guns and halberds. Yes, she has always thought that hot pot is to eat enough rivers and lakes, enough swords and swords, in order to throw out the unhappiness in her heart. Also, in such a winter, such a loneliness, you must eat hot pot to feel warm, and you will have the courage to walk home alone through the cold.

She didn't know how much she had eaten, but in short, she felt that her whole body was very warm, and she was not as sad as she was just now, so she settled the bill and walked home. It's an old residential area, shaded by tall trees, the occasional bus rushes by, and the shops on both sides are old, and even the neon signs look like sleepy eyes that the sleepy people can't open. There was natural silence around her, so when the ringtone "EVERSLEEPING" that she had set up for that number rang, it made her heart spasm.

Dong Xiaokui was a little scrambling to find out the phone and saw his name displayed on the screen. She hesitated, in fact, she was a little afraid that Xu Er would tell her personally: "I'm getting engaged." ”

SHE STOOD UNDER THE GLOOMY TREE, LOOKING AT THE GLARING SCREEN, HIS NAME JUMPING, AND IN HER EARS THE DESOLATE AND ETHEREAL FEMALE VOICE SINGING "EVERSLEEPING", WHICH SHE KEPT WATCHING, AND DID NOT REACH OUT TO TAKE IT. Later, the phone finally stopped, and Dong Xiaokui breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly the phone rang again. It was Xu Er who called, but she didn't answer, so he continued to fight. Don't give up, so repeatedly. She finally picked it up, her voice trembling a little, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”......
