Chapter 050 Turn

The other end of the phone was silent for a long time without speaking. Dong Xiaokui stood on the side of the street where the cold wind was raging, and he didn't even take care of his scarf, letting the cold wind blow over in bursts, taking away the heat little by little.

After a moment of silence like this, Dong Xiaokui finally pretended to be calm and chuckled, and broke the silence with a light "What's wrong".

Xu Er didn't answer her words, but said something that was incompatible, he asked, "Are you still outside?" ”

Dong Xiaokui was stunned for a moment, but replied in a relaxed tone: "Yes." I just went to eat hot pot and was walking to my accommodation. ”

"It's always good to eat hot pot when it's cold. I haven't eaten in years. "Xu Er is a little gossipy.

"You are a busy person, you don't have time when you work, you have more time to socialize. Naturally, there is no time. Dong Xiaokui also tried her best to adjust her tone to relaxed.

"It's not just busy, either. If you really want to eat, it's just a meal. It's just that I always feel that eating hot pot is not as good as eating Western food. Eating hot pot always has to have a bunch of right people together, so that it can be incisive enough. Over the years, good friends have been busy with their own things, and there is always less time for a hot pot meal. I envy you. Xu Er said slowly, his tone was very calm.

"Oh, that's right. My life is much simpler after all. Dong Xiaokui still has a light tone. But in his heart, he whispered bitterly: Xu Zhonglin, you don't know that I went to the hot pot restaurant to eat alone tonight, how invisible.

"So, a lot of times, envy you, envy a lot of people who live a simple life." Xu Er whispered.

"If it's a lemon, you love your sourness, and if it's sugar water, you like your sweetness. I don't understand people, but I'm talking too much. Dong Xiaokui said in a relaxed tone.

"You're right. But envy of others is the original inferiority of human beings. I'm just a layman, and I do this kind of stupid thing once in a while. Xu Er also chuckled, with a somewhat self-deprecating tone.

"That's right. It's one thing to be able to comprehend, it's another thing to be able to do it. Dong Xiaokui whispered.

"It's cold over there, isn't it? This year's weather is very abnormal, and it has snowed heavily in the capital. Xu Er changed the subject.

"Well, the cold wave is coming earlier than usual." Dong Xiaokui replied and walked slowly to the residence, the dumpling shop at the entrance of the community was still steaming. The owner and hostess were busy behind the stove facing the street.

"Then go back quickly, I'll call you later." Xu Er said.

Dong Xiaokui originally wanted to say, "It's okay, it's almost here", but she didn't say it after all, because she thought that maybe Xu Er had something to say, but it was a little difficult to say, so she had talked so much useless before, since he still needed time, so how could she go against his will? So, she said, "Okay, I'll text you when I get home." ”

"Good. Go back quickly, warm your hands, your hands are so cold even in summer, take care of them, it's too cold this year, don't get frostbite. Xu Er urged.

"Hmm." Dong Xiaokui replied, hung up the phone immediately, and tears welled up all of a sudden. Because she remembered that she was in Ningyuan during the summer vacation, she was reading a book on the sofa in the living room on the third floor, and somehow fell asleep, and when she woke up, she found Xu Er reading a book on the side, and Hu Yi sleeping on her stomach at her feet. Xu Er was holding the book in one hand, but holding her hand in the other. She was going to pull her hand out. He put down the book, held her hands in his hands, and said, "You say, on a hot day, the air conditioning here is not on, but your hands are so cold." Winter, how did you stand it? ”

"Then there is no sudden cold and heat, okay." Dong Xiaokui pulled out her hand vigorously, got up in a panic and went to the bathroom.

"It must be yin deficiency, I have to prescribe a prescription to recuperate, and when it is time to take tonic in autumn and winter, at that time, I have to supervise your diet well." Xu Erlang said.

Dong Xiaokui closed the door of the bathroom, her heart was pounding, and she secretly thought: Can this scene be cold in winter?

Now, he still remembers that day, right? Just remember what, the day after tomorrow he and Ouyang Wei are officially engaged. Dong Xiaokui stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears, wrapped her coat tightly and strode forward.

When I returned to my accommodation, I turned on the lights, and it was too wet and cold inside. She froze for a moment and sent him a text message informing him that she had returned to her accommodation. I sat on the couch and waited for two minutes, but I saw that he didn't text back. Dong Xiaokui tied an apron and got up to boil hot water to soak her feet.

After soaking his feet, Xu Er still had no news. Dong Xiaokui finished taking a shower again and went to bed. She didn't like electric blankets, so it was cold on the bed, and she wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and curled up. In fact, there was no sleep, just waiting quietly for his call.

The phone was placed next to the pillow, but I never remembered it. I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT TOOK, BUT SHE WAS A LITTLE SUDDEN, AND HER MOBILE PHONE SUDDENLY REMEMBERED THAT IT WAS THE SONG "EVERSLEEPING" THAT SHE WAS SINGING. She immediately reached out from under the quilt and touched it to answer.

This time it was Xu Er who spoke first, and he said, "I'm sorry, I had something to deal with just now, so I made you wait." ”

Where is Xu Zhonglin who will apologize to others, hearing him say "I'm sorry", Dong Xiaokui was stunned, and instinctively said: "It's okay." I expect that if you have something, Xu Shao has always been true to his word, and he will never break his word. ”

"Dong Xiaokui, do you really look at me like this?" Xu Er asked suddenly, his tone was very solemn.

Dong Xiaokui paused, in the end she realized the seriousness of his question, and the answer became more and more light-hearted, she moved her body, held the phone sideways, and said with a chuckle: "Xu Shao's name in the capital, everyone knows it." ”

"I'll just ask you." Xu Er was a little aggressive.

"That's how little I've seen so far." Dong Xiaokui still pretended to be light and light.

Xu Er didn't speak immediately, just sighed, and then said, "I hope you really trust it like this." ”

"You're suspicious. He also said that he was a friend. Dong Xiaokui muttered, with a somewhat reproachful tone.

"Xiao Kui-" Xu Er shouted.

"Hmm." Dong Xiaokui replied, intuition Xu Er's breathing was a little chaotic, she held her breath and waited quietly for him to cut today's call to the topic.

There was a lot of silence between the two, but neither of them hung up the phone. After a long time, he said slowly: "Xiaokui, I'm getting engaged." ”

"Congratulations." Dong Xiaokui blurted out and said happily and sincerely wished. Yes, she had practiced these two words for a long time since she knew he was going to get engaged.

"Aoi-chan." Xu Er shouted.

"Huh? What's wrong? Shouldn't I say congratulations? It's a gratifying thing that you've finally been kidnapped by someone. Dong Xiaokui almost teased with haha, and then didn't give Xu Er a chance to speak, and continued to ask: "When will you get engaged?" When to get married? ”

She asked the question, gritting her teeth tightly, trying to hold her breath and not let herself leak any emotion.

Xu Er was silent for a long time before replying, "The day after tomorrow." ”

"You're really, so urgent, where can I find the right gift. That's your fault. Next time, you're going to have to let me know sooner when you get married, you know? Dong Xiaokui said loudly, and her voice was clear and indifferent in the autumn water.

"It's just a preliminary engagement, no ceremony yet. Guests are also limited to both family members. So, no one was notified. Xu Er explained.

Dong Xiaokui was a little puzzled, this powerful family is really strange, engaged to be engaged, and there are preliminary engagements. However, she didn't bother to ask about other people's affairs. Just asked: "And there is an official engagement?" ”

"Well, this preliminary engagement is the engagement ceremony for both parties." Xu Er replied.

"The date of the engagement ceremony has not yet been set?" Dong Xiaokui asked, and suddenly felt that he shouldn't have asked this sentence, and his tone was actually a little expectant.

"The day after tomorrow." Xu Er's words are concise and to the point.

"Okay, you're done, tell me, I'm ready for a gift." Dong Xiaokui smiled and said "congratulations" again.

"Okay." Xu Er replied, and then added: "It's late at night, you rest early, there is a cold wave hitting Jincheng in the past few days, you should pay more attention." ”

"Hmm." Dong Xiaokui replied.

As soon as she hung up the phone, she curled up completely, covered her face with her hands, and cried very suppressedly, tears rolling out from between her fingers. She thought that she was sad enough to hear the news of Xu Er's engagement from Li Yongfeng, and she thought that she had adjusted to calm as water during this period of time, and she would not be too sad because of this. However, when he heard him say that he was going to get engaged, he was still so sad that his heart was like a knife.

Dong Xiaokui let herself cry as much as she wanted, as if she wanted to cry out of her long-term depression and grievances, as well as her struggles. After crying for a long time, she was a little tired, but the quilt was still warm because of her own body temperature. She slowly lay on her side. said to himself: Dong Xiaokui, now, you can really live a dull life.

The next day, she woke up and found that she was dizzy, washed her face, thinking that she hadn't paid attention yesterday and had a cold. She took two cold pills and forced herself to go to work, but finally couldn't hold it anymore after lunch. Qin Min saw that she looked weird and scary, and personally drove her to the hospital to hang the bottle.

Qin Min paid the money and received the medicine. She was lying on the hospital bed, saying "thank you" angrily, Qin Min waved her hand and said, "In the past six months, you have actually helped me a lot." Besides, they are all working hard outside, and it is appropriate to take care of each other. ”

Dong Xiaokui pulled out a smile, but Qin Min said: "I see that you are very sick, or I will give you a few days off, anyway, there will be nothing to do in the past few days." It is a combined party of Christmas and New Year's Day, and Mr. Lin will come to attend. When the time comes, the commendation award will be yours. You have to think about that day. ”

Dong Xiaokui took the hot water he handed over and said thank you to him.

"If you don't have that ability, it's useless for anyone to recommend you. So, it's still my own credit. Qin Min said, and then the phone rang, and he walked out of the ward to answer the phone.

Dong Xiaokui felt that his words were a little strange, but because he was answering the phone, he didn't want to ask. When he came back, he preemptively said: "There are some things to deal with in the company, he has to rush back and come to see her in the afternoon." ”

"Manager Qin, you are busy. I'll just call my classmates in a moment. Dong Xiaokui immediately said.

"That's good. I'll give you two days off, take care of your body, and our planning department will be skinny. Qin Min said as he walked out, and when he walked to the door, he didn't forget to turn around and say, "No deduction of wages and bonuses." ”

When Dong Xiaokui heard this, he smiled, and said angrily, "Thank you Manager Qin." ”

Qin Min was in a hurry, and he had already walked out. Dong Xiaokui was lying on the hospital bed, her nose was blocked, and it was not good to turn on the heating in the ward. The only good thing, though, is that she finally doesn't have to smell the disinfectant anymore.

After falling asleep, Dong Xiaokui was woken up by the nurse who came to change the hanging bottle. She stared at the nurse sleepily. The nurse said, "Your phone has rang a few times. ”

Dong Xiaokui took out the phone from his pocket and saw that it was the radio leader calling. She hurriedly went back, and as soon as the leader heard her voice, he immediately asked, "Sick?" ”

"Well, I have a cold, I was just on the infusion, and I didn't hear the phone ring." Dong Xiaokui replied, coughing twice.

"Then there's a show ——, to run, and you're like this—" The leader was a little embarrassed. This person is not the highest authority in the station, but Dong Xiaokui's direct leader is pragmatic and has old qualifications, and he also has weight in speaking in the traffic station. He has always admired Xia Keke and Dong Xiaokui. Xia Keke left, he also expressed great regret, so he thought of a lot of ways to let Dong Xiaokui stay.

"I'm fine, I've already hung up the bottle." Dong Xiaokui immediately said. She also knows that at the beginning of the year, she must choose between Yunfan Industrial Chain and Jincheng Traffic Station. And she prefers the traffic station, after all, planning can really make people crazy. Therefore, she did not slack off at all for the appreciation and help given to her by this old man.

"This is going to a foreign country, can you really do it?"

"No problem. Where are you going this time? Dong Xiaokui asked, looking at the infusion bottle that had just been replaced.

"I didn't go out of the province this time, but the location is a bit off. You know that last time there was a series of activities for poor left-behind children in Taili, in Aba Prefecture, there has been a freeze recently, and it seems that there is a lot of loss. The leader couldn't help but sigh.

"I grew up in the mountains, and I am familiar with life in the mountains, I am not in the way, I can go." Dong Xiaokui replied, thinking that it would be good to go to see those simple mountain children tomorrow, and it would be uncomfortable to be idle.

"Then you pack up tonight and wear more, it's cold in the mountains. Also, we may have to stay a few more days, so you need to bring enough clothes and necessary supplies. The leader admonished again.

Dong Xiaokui said yes again and again, and then hung up the phone. After hanging the bottle in the hospital, I returned home, ordered a few light dishes for dinner, and went to bed early.

When she got up the next morning, Dong Xiaokui found that the cold was all gone. So I packed my clothes, medicines, and the radio car and went to the remote mountainous areas of Aba Prefecture. Because of the severe frost, so the choice is a safer road, this road is naturally much farther than from the Chengguan Expressway, from Dujiangyan to go in, plus the rain and frost slippery, so the convoy arrived in the town, it was already afternoon.... The group walked halfway up the mountain road, and when they came to the foothold, the village chief's house in the mountain village, settled everything, and it was already night.

She pulled out her phone and looked at it, but there was no signal. She changed places a few more times, but there was still no signal. The village chief waved his hand and said, "There are only landlines here, they were all installed a few years ago, and the mobile phone signal is there, so you have to turn around the hill in front of you." ”

The village chief said, pointing to the foggy hill in front of him, and said, "The road is slippery on a rainy day, if you have anything urgent, just use the landline." ”

Dong Xiaokui smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just want to call home." ”

"That's a landline, don't worry, I won't eavesdrop on the little girl's whispering." The village chief laughed and led Dong Xiaokui to his living room.

Dong Xiaokui originally just wanted to see if there was a signal, and the village chief was so enthusiastic. She had to call her mother and say something homely, and her mother was much calmer than before, and they all told each other about keeping out of the cold.

Sleeping in the quiet mountains at night, the little sister who traveled with me looked like a lady, but the snoring came and went. Dong Xiaokui originally had something on her mind, but she couldn't sleep now, so she simply got up and sat at the window to look outside.

The mountains are faint, in the night. The village chief was probably afraid that people would fall when they got up, so he kept the lights on. Under the eaves of the wooden house, the yellow light illuminates the cold of the night, and snow falls in the middle of the night. ......
