On Chinese New Year's Eve, Wen Min and the principal went back to the room early to sleep, Xiao Luo and Lu Hanchuan cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and sat together in the kitchen in a daze at the unfinished snow outside, the wood in the stove was burning vigorously, on one side was warm and dry air, on the other side was the cool night breeze, Xiao Luo's forehead hair was blown messy, and his nose was frozen red.

Lu Hanchuan pulled her to the room to bake the fire, and there was the sound of firecrackers everywhere from time to time, and the fragrance of mare's milk wine remained in the air, and the crackling sound of burning wood could be heard when it was quiet.

Xiao Luo rubbed his frozen red face and talked to Lu Hanchuan with a smile, "Do you remember that one year I was at your house for the New Year, and I refused to leave after eating Chinese New Year's Eve, so I had to occupy your bed to sleep, and I was so angry that I stood at the door of the room with the quilt for more than half an hour, and your face was purple when your mother pulled you back to the room." ”

Lu Hanchuan chuckled, "How can you not remember, I still remember that you are well-behaved and cute at school and in front of your elders, but you are very domineering to me, if something goes wrong, you must find a way to rectify me." ”

Xiao Luo was a little embarrassed by what he said, and his bright eyes blinked a few times before he lowered his head to take his words, "Don't make fun of me, I was not sensible at that time, I thought you were a good bully, but I really didn't know that you were actually letting me." ”

"It's good to know now." Lu Hanchuan looked at Xiao Luo's black and white eyes, and restrained the smile on his face, "Wen Mei talked to me this morning. ”

Xiao Luo glanced up at him, his face was a little surprised, Lu Hanchuan understood seven or eight points in his heart when he saw this, "I think she should have told you those words, it sounded ridiculous at the time, but then I thought about it, what she said was indeed very reasonable." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Luo couldn't help but clench his palms, and swallowed as he looked at the kind expression on his face.

"This place is far behind in all aspects, and if you really stay here for the rest of your life, your talent and ability will be completely wasted." Lu Hanchuan's tone was very solemn, "I know that you are a very high-spirited person, how can you be willing to hide in the barren mountains and mountains for the rest of your life?" What to do in the future, you have to have a plan in mind. ”

Xiao Luo stared at his lips hesitantly, making sure that Wen Mei didn't mention the matter of matching the two of them before she put down her mind to think about the question raised by Lu Hanchuan, in fact, she had also thought about this matter thousands of times, but she knew that she would subconsciously avoid anything related to Yi Zeran.

It's as if this land is her peach blossom source, and Yi Zeran, as an outsider, can never disturb the peace and tranquility inside.

But the fact is also as Lu Hanchuan said, in this village where the Internet is not very popular, she can't think of a way to continue her dream, so it's a pity to give up.

Xiao Luo's thoughts turned, he looked up at Lu Hanchuan several times, and finally lowered his head without saying a word.

Lu Hanchuan looked at her depressed appearance and sighed heavily, "Forget it, let's not mention this matter now, there is something more important at the moment, listening to Wen Mei's meaning, if there is really a problem in this inspection, the child in her belly will be entrusted to you nine times out of ten, have you figured out how to deal with it?" ”

"I'll take good care of the child for her." Xiao Luo replied crisply, "I think I think my ability will definitely be able to support him." ”

"You can feed him, but you can't give him full love." Lu Hanchuan stretched out his index finger and shook it on the flame, and the light of the fire made his face more serious, "I went to the street to buy something the day before yesterday, and I specially went to check Yi Zeran's news......"

Hearing the words "Yi Zeran", Xiao Luo's body shook for a moment, and he almost fell into the pile of firewood behind him, Lu Hanchuan saw her small movements in his eyes, his thick eyelashes blinked, and he said softly: "He has made a big move recently, and it seems that he wants to move all the enterprises of country M to China." ”

Xiao Luo clenched his fists, his teeth against his lips and bit them white.

"I'm telling you this just to tell you that Lu Hanchuan originally grew up in country M, and returning to country M to inherit the family business is the easiest thing for him, but he has to find the heart to move the company over, have you ever thought about why?"

Xiao Luo looked at his eyes steadily, and opened his mouth with difficulty: "I have always been unable to guess his thoughts, so it's up to him to do what he wants." ”

"Xiao Luo, you are really confused, Yi Zeran went to great lengths to move the company to China just so that he could live quietly in China in the future, what attracted him to stay?" Lu Hanchuan looked at her with hatred, "You always say that he doesn't care about you, but have you thought carefully about what everything he does is for?" ”

Xiao Luo's face faded bloody in an instant, she bit her lip and stood up, her eyebrows and eyes could not hide the panicked look, "I'm a little sleepy, let's go back to the room to rest first." ”

Before leaving, she kicked on the stove and almost knocked it over, but she paused and staggered out of the kitchen.

Lu Hanchuan straightened the stove, looked at her running back, and sighed helplessly.

At the moment when the old and the new alternate, there are always long firecrackers, Xiao Luo lies in the quilt and tosses and turns, thinking about what Lu Hanchuan said to her, is it really jealousy that blinds her eyes, so that she can no longer see Yi Zeran's kindness to her?

She couldn't think of an answer, and stared at the snow through the crack in the door until dawn.

The first day of the new year is when the villagers are the most active, every household has prepared candy and snacks to welcome customers, and the school has the most people, especially those who have children studying in school, carrying large bags of gifts to come to pay New Year's greetings.

The headmaster, who was the most respected elder in the old wealthy family, moved a chair and wore new clothes to sit in the house at the entrance of the school and chat with the guests.

Yuexi also followed her father, and after a few days of not seeing her, her face was a lot rounder, and the two red clouds on her cheeks were as delicate as flowers, and the surrounding skin was white and tender.

Lu Hanchuan was originally in the yard to clean up the New Year's goods sent by the villagers, and after Yuexi came, Xiao Luo called him to the front to talk together, in the end, he was born with a lively character, Yuexi twisted for a while and then chatted with Lu Hanchuan generously.

Xiao Luo said goodbye to the principal, wrapped himself like a bear, and walked along the path towards the snow-capped mountain in the distance.

She wanted to walk up the steps again, and it would be better to see the old monk who had given them the signature, and then kneel in front of the Buddha and reverently lay a stick of incense.

There are not many guests who come to burn incense during the festival, and naturally there are no couples running over to climb the stairs, the mountains and forests are so quiet that there are no birds, the snow has just melted a few days ago, and the stairs are still drenched, and she holds the dead branches growing next to her to climb up little by little.

However, she was tired and panting after more than 100 steps, standing in the resting place and looking up, it happened to be the place where Yi Zeran helped the little couple take pictures last time, and Yi Zeran's unsmiling face would be temporarily pulled over as a photographer.

Thinking of the situation where he pressed the shutter on the little couple with an expressionless face, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and when she looked up, the sunlight just happened to fall in front of her through Lin Fei, causing her eyes to be full of white spots.

She wiped her sweat and continued to climb up, climbing too slowly, the peak was the little monk who was guarding the temple just to go to lunch, she even gasped and chased after her, and learned that the old monk had been seriously ill two months ago, and now he is bedridden.

Her heart was empty, she looked up at the Buddha statue of compassion in the temple, and softly recited "Amitabha".

The idea of going to Houshan to burn incense was dispelled because the old monk was seriously ill, and Xiao Luo refused the invitation of the little monk to leave the Buddhist temple alone and return along the same road.

The speed of descending the steps was very fast, Xiao Luo was almost running forward, and when the wind whirred in her ears, she seemed to have returned to that winter day that she would never forget......

The wind dried the tears on her cheeks and scratched her skin painfully, Xiao Luo raised her hand to cover her cheek and ran down the steps, she decided, she would contact Yi Zeran after this year, no matter what the result was, some words had to be said to her face no matter what.

When she was about to reach the bottom of the mountain, she was slipped by a piece of snow that had not completely melted, her knee hit the edge of the steps, and she burst into tears, and the mobile phone in her pocket rang at an inopportune time, and she gritted her teeth and took out the phone to answer.

"Xiao Luo, where are you?" Lu Hanchuan's voice was very anxious, and his heavy wheezing could be heard as he spoke.

Xiao Luo thought he was worried about his safety, took a deep breath and stood up from the ground, and before he could speak, he heard a noise from there, followed by Lu Hanchuan's almost roaring voice, "Wen Mei fainted, the situation is very bad, we have to send her to the hospital, come back quickly!" ”

There was a murmur on the phone, Xiao Luo looked at the phone that he didn't have time to hang up, and suddenly rushed forward like crazy.

She, like Wen Mei, has lost so much that she really can't accept any kind of separation.

When she rushed to the school, Wen Mei had already been driven away by the bazaar, and there were still scattered villagers at the school gate, and Mei Duo's father saw her lost soul and walked over to comfort her, "We found it in time, the snow on the road has melted, and we should be able to get to the hospital soon, don't worry." ”

Xiao Luo's legs couldn't stop trembling, like the yellow leaves after the autumn for a long time before he gritted his teeth and found support, "Is there still a car in the village, I'll go to the hospital now." ”

Frightened by her appearance, Mei Duo nervously held her palm and looked at her with wide eyes.

Yuexi's father also interjected on the side, "Yuexi went with me just now, there are so many people who take care of it and there will be no problem, you stay and pack up your things first, they are in a hurry, and they haven't had time to bring anything." ”

"Yes, sister." Mei Duo shook her arm, "I saw it when Teacher Wen left, I didn't even wear a padded jacket, I just got out of school a few days ago, and the teacher must have frozen." ”

"I'll go get her clothes." Xiao Luo dropped a sentence and rushed into the school like a headless fly.
