Chapter 006 Conflict

Dong Xiaokui did not go to buy feminine products, but walked outside along the riverbank. The early autumn sun is scorching. The bluestone slabs in the back street are hot, and there are some asphalt stones, which smell of burning. There are few pedestrians on the streets, and there are occasional old shops with signs for ice cream, which are also from a few years ago. Time in Yunlai Town seems to have been frozen all along.

However, Dong Xiaokui knew that she was no longer the little girl, and she was just yearning for an ice cream in the hot summer season.

She sat under the big rocks of the eucalyptus trees by the river, watching the clear water flow slowly away, surrounded by the sound of cicadas. For a moment, I was a little sudden, looking at the village on the other side of the river, so peaceful and quiet. Each courtyard has its own peace and happiness. This kind of peace and happiness is what you want. But it has to be the right one.

Thinking of this, Dong Xiaokui thought of her mother's resoluteness again, and couldn't help lowering her eyes. Holding the mobile phone, he hesitated, but he still pressed the No. 1 button, and what popped up was naturally Xu Er's number, looking at the dial-up connection, Dong Xiaokui was slightly nervous.

After a while, it was connected, Xu Er said "hey", Dong Xiaokui quickly picked it up, and pretended to be relaxed and said, "I think at this time, you are also awake." Not bothering you. ”

"Well, I woke up early in the morning. Can I help you? Xu Er asked.

yes, what's the matter? She just wanted to hear his voice. So, Xu Er asked like this, but she didn't know how to answer, was stunned for a moment, and said, "It's okay, you're busy." ”

Xu Er was silent, silent over there for a while, and whispered, "Hidden and tucked, where are you now?" How can there be a cicada, so bright. ”

This question eased the tension a lot. Dong Xiaokui smiled and said, "Fishing by the river." ”

"You're elegant. Is my brother's champion banquet ready? Xu Er asked again.

"Hmm. Mom is very competent and has been ready for a long time. As for the other scenes, they have also been dealt with. Dong Xiaokui said, in fact, he is still a little worried about tonight. Tonight, many relatives and friends were present, and my mother was stubborn and stubborn, and she was not 100% persuaded just now.

"Well, that's good." He replied.

Dong Xiaokui felt a little unfamiliar with each other, and was silent for a while, so he said, "Then I'll hang up the phone first, you can get busy." ”

"Good. I still have some things to deal with right away. I'll be busy in a while. Xu Er said and hung up the phone first.

Dong Xiaokui sat by the river alone for a while, a little overwhelmed. I'm also a little hungry, and I always have to convince my mother when I think about it. So, I got up and walked home. Unexpectedly, I climbed up from the river, and just arrived at the entrance of the rope bridge in the back street, I saw Li Yongfeng standing under the tree, looking at the small temple at the head of the bridge.

She couldn't help but stop, stood there, and didn't speak. Li Yongfeng didn't look at her either. Because there was a luxuriant banyan tree in between, she thought, perhaps, he didn't see her. So he turned around and prepared to go home from another alley. As soon as he turned around, Li Yongfeng shouted in a deep voice: "Dong Xiaokui." ”

She stopped, turned the banyan tree, smiled at him, and said, "What a coincidence." ”

"Aren't you resting?" He asked, not hearing the joys and sorrows, still looking at the small temple that was said to be the life of the lonely soul and the wild ghost.

"It's too hot to sleep, so I go out for a walk." She replied calmly.

Li Yongfeng couldn't refute, just stood and didn't speak. Dong Xiaokui also stood next to him for a moment, and then said, "I'm a little hungry, so I'll go home first." ”

"Dong Xiaokui, do you remember that night, here? When you come back from going to the capital this time, it has changed. He said.

Dong Xiaokui lowered her eyes, smiled slightly, and said, "I treat you as a friend, but there are insurmountable boundaries between friends. ”

"If you go with him, it's going to be hard work, and it's probably going to be fruitless." Li Yongfeng said very directly.

"Saying it behind your back, it's not a small thing, aren't you afraid of chilling your brother?" Dong Xiaokui was a little unhappy in his heart, even if it was likely to be fruitless, it shouldn't come out of his mouth. Originally, she thought of him as a friend.

"Even if Xu Er is here, I have to say, Dong Xiaokui, I hope that your good heart can be seen by the sun and the moon." He turned suddenly, in the shadow of the cool sycamore, his expression was serious, and the lines of his face were tense.

Dong Xiaokui stood in the sun, the sun at the end of August shone on her face, there was a burning pain, she narrowed her eyes slightly, she couldn't help frowning, and she didn't speak. Li Yongfeng continued: "You can choose anyone, why is it him? With such a family background, he is also a son-in-law, not to mention that he once loved Chen Zixiu so much. He didn't tell you, did he? ”

What Li Yongfeng said is the truth, and maybe it's really for her good. But she didn't like everything he said about Xu Er. I always felt that he was suspected of being a villain.

So, he reminded: "Li Yongfeng, we are friends, you and Zhonglin are brothers, and you are young." Mo said that he told me everything about Chen Zixiu, and even if he didn't tell me, he had to tell me this kind of thing personally. When you say this, you have lost your style and identity. ”

Li Yongfeng smiled coldly and said, "Do you also think that I have lost my style and identity?" I've been wondering if I've said these words to you. I'm always reluctant to see you take the road too hard. I'm always afraid that you will suffer. To be honest, during this time, I have thought more than once about returning to the capital and taking you with me. Glory and wealth, although what can be given to you is not as glorious as him, it will also be infinitely beautiful. ”

As soon as Dong Xiaokui heard this, he was angry and drank: "What do you mean?" Do you think that when I am with him, I am interested in his money and power? ”

Li Yongfeng's face was gloomy, and he probably knew that he had said the wrong thing, and said in a somewhat hurried tone: "I'm just talking about my promise, and I don't mean anything else." ”

"Li Yongfeng, let me tell you. In my eyes, you are my friend, and you are just Li Yongfeng, and it has nothing to do with your identity as the fourth young man of the Li family. And he is in my heart, just Xu Zhonglin, even if he has any other identity, it has nothing to do with it. Even if he is down-and-out one day, with no power or money, he is still just Xu Zhonglin to me. Nothing has changed. Dong Xiaokui said coldly.

"You are too idealistic, if he is just Xu Zhonglin to you, why do you care so much about the gap between you?" Li Yongfeng was also unceremonious.

She was stunned, this man knew she cared about the gap between them. She glanced at him. Li Yongfeng seemed to see her question, and said: "You can't be with him, in your opinion, isn't the status difference too great?" If you say what else do you fear? ”

"I'm too lazy to argue with you." Dong Xiaokui didn't want to talk too much to Li Yongfeng, he always felt that if he said too much, he would say something that would make each other unable to get off the stage.

"The first time I saw Dong Xiaokui, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, in order for his younger brother to be able to endure hardships, Dong Xiaokui I saw later was smart and smart, faced with criticism, undiminished momentum, and could find the best resources to solve the problem together. If you don't care about the gap between you, why don't you have the slightest courage and courage at the beginning? Or did Xu Zhonglin not give you any courage at all? Li Yongfeng's tone was aggressive, as if he wanted to reveal all the bloody truth under the disguise.

She stood still, and it was true that some parts of what Li Yongfeng said hit her. Although Xu Er has done a lot, he has never been good at expressing his feelings, and he said that Jieyu's words before made her uneasy. He really didn't give her confidence, because she wasn't sure. Of course, she is also calculating the gap between them, although she can fight for him at the moment of life and death, but life is a small day after all, not every moment is a life and death crisis. As soon as these days are broken, the more you think and the more you calculate, the more people will be realistic. That kind of courage to move forward, over time, will be corroded, consumed, and exhausted by the days.

Yes, she was a little concerned about the gap between them. She blamed him for not giving her a sincere absolute, and not giving her the courage to face difficulties and obstacles. However, even so, tiny stones can't stop the general direction of the rolling wheels. What's more, she is so stubborn.

"What? Am I right? I've known him since I was a kid. I know him all too well. He wouldn't promise anyone without complete certainty. Now, he doesn't promise you, and even if he likes you, it means that he is not sure about your future. He is the most powerful and courageous family member in our circle. If he's not sure, what do you think you can do? Li Yongfeng's tone became more and more ruthless, and finally, the whole person came over, pulled her under the shade of the tree, and reprimanded: "Do you think this day is a fluorescent lamp?" ”

She pursed her lips and looked at him stubbornly. The two looked at each other angrily, and Dong Xiaokui finally said word by word: "I have never given up on what I have chosen, even if I have to work hard all my life." As you said, we are friends. So, don't mention the beginning. ”

"Don't mention it? When did you not mention it? You're a ruthless woman. You won't allow me to make mistakes? I am a man, I am not a god. Can't you forget these things and let me spend all my days to make up for them? Li Yongfeng's tone was very ruthless.

"Even if it's not him, it won't be you. You know. Dong Xiaokui lowered her head slightly and spit out this sentence slowly.

"I don't understand, and I don't want to. What do we have to do with others? Li Yongfeng said almost unreasonably.

"I won't go into the details of what you know. I just hope that along the way, we will at least remain friends. Dong Xiaokui said it very clearly.

Yes, even if it is not Xu Zhonglin, it must not be Li Yongfeng. Let's not say that Li Yongfeng is Xu Er's hair, the Li family and the Xu family are both face-saving people. Now, his own affairs have alarmed the Xu family. For Xu Zhonglin's face, no matter what, it is impossible for her and Li Yongfeng.

What's more, from beginning to end, she didn't have that kind of affection for Li Yongfeng. Initially, she was embattled, and he helped her, even if it turned out to be a conspiracy. But that year, he was her warmest bright color, what kind of feelings were in those years, she never knew, but she was sure that she had always looked up to and respected him.

Later, he told all kinds of clues, Shu Ning's death, and his lonely life experience. Even if she sympathizes with him and feels distressed, she only feels that she is a good friend who can make friends.

That feeling is not as good as that day, Xu Er intermittently told Chen Zixiu and his affairs by getting drunk. He confessed his past to her, saying that the past became a taboo for Xu Er. She said to herself in her heart: Dong Xiaokui, from now on, you have to love this man well.

She is just a friend to Li Yongfeng. If there is no Xu Er, there may be another encounter, and she and him may have another good relationship. However, the fact is that she knows Xu Er, feels very sorry for this man, thinks about him, and is familiar with every stripe of his palm.

Therefore, between her and Li Yongfeng, all the possibilities that did not happen were because they did not happen, so it will never be possible.

"Friends?" Li Yongfeng smiled coldly, and then continued: "Who the hell wants to be friends with you?" ”

Li Yongfeng's tone was ruthless, which had never been done before. Dong Xiaokui looked at him in shock. He lowered his voice and said, "You don't understand, you don't, you understand." Finally saw the person she was waiting for, she only said that she was a friend, what was it like. ”

As he spoke, he pulled Dong Xiaokui and squeezed her wrist fiercely. The whole expression was a little ruthless. Dong Xiaokui was slightly scared in his heart, at this moment, what a terrible madness Li Yongfeng's heart reflected. She couldn't provoke him, and she felt sorry and guilty for him like this, so she stood there quietly.

As he got closer, she could smell the faint smell of wine between his breaths. It turned out that the guy was drinking.

"You say, can you understand how uncomfortable it is?" He squeezed her wrist tightly, making her palms numb.

She didn't speak, just stood there. All I wanted was to end this unpleasant conversation as soon as possible. Li Yongfeng suddenly lowered his tone and said, "The Xu family has already betrothed for him, he didn't tell you, right?" Do you think he might resist that kind of engagement? Fool, with him for so long, his maintenance of the family's honor is greater than heaven and earth, and even greater than his life. Don't you know? Stupid pig. Li Yongfeng hated the tone of iron not becoming steel, and was very sad.

Dong Xiaokui pursed her lips. Yes, it's her weakness. Because he knew what kind of person Xu Er was, he faintly heard Xu Da talk about his possible engagement. However, all the while, she was reluctant to think about it. She just walked forward, not looking at the road. As long as Xu Er is still working hard, it is impossible for her to give up. Because, she firmly remembered that sentence: happiness is the result of the efforts of two people.

However, just because you don't look at this doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. It is a hidden thorn in Dong Xiaokui's heart. And Li Yongfeng pulled out this thorn wantonly without warning, making her feel pain.

"Don't toss, follow me, and live an ordinary life." He said.

Dong Xiaokui subconsciously shook his head. He still pinched her wrist, smiled in a low voice, and said, "For you, I have become such a despicable person to judge right and wrong." Dong Xiaokui, I really hope to make up for the past and make you laugh happily every day. Like when I first met you and said I wanted to help you. ”

Dong Xiaokui felt that it was inappropriate to say anything. It is better to end this conversation as soon as possible, after all, this is the entrance of the back street, although the noon sun is poisonous, and there are not many people walking, but the town is too small, if a pair of eyes see this scene, add fuel and vinegar, and the gossip will grow.

So, she finally raised her eyebrows, glanced at him indifferently, and said, "You drank too much." ”

The meaning of this sentence is: If you drink too much, I will not care about those words with you, and I will treat them as wine words. As soon as these words came out, Li Yongfeng's hand froze, and his strength loosened a little, and after a while, he let go of her and took a step back.

"At noon, don't drink. Injuries. In the evening, Xiaohuai's champion banquet, you, as his teacher, must be on time. At that time, there will be rice wine specially brewed by the Dong family. Dong Xiaokui tidied up her clothes and said lightly.

Li Yongfeng deserves to be a character, and he instantly turned his face crazy. With an indifferent look, he replied: "Okay." However, I'm a little dizzy now, so I'm going back to rest. ”

"Okay, see you in the evening." Dong Xiaokui stood in the shade of a tree, and his back disappeared around the corner of the back street. ......
