Chapter 9: Be Your Shadow
Separation for a long time will not make true love talk, but will be deposited and fermented, and in the end it will be brewed into a fine wine, full of aroma.
Xiao Ting wore a dress today, which she chose after a full day in the store, a goose-yellow slim down jacket, a pink light cotton wool around the hood, long hair naturally scattered, a white turtleneck sweater, set off her slender neck, white-gray denim leggings, and a pair of over-the-knee pink boots, which really rendered Xiao Ting like an angel falling from the sky, spotless. Seeing Bai Chuan looking at herself in a daze, she was happy, happiness is actually that simple.
But what is a little incongruous in this picture is Bai Chuan, Bai Xue made such a beautiful background, and such a beautiful girl, it seems that Bai Chuan is so out of place, wearing a military coat, no buttons, just tied with a cloth belt, a pair of shoes are not raised on the heel, directly dragged as slippers, hair messy like a straw nest, eyes are deep, as if not sleeping well, the overall feeling is not a sixteen-year-old young man, but a bit of the old man who picks up donkey feces and eggs every day in the village.
Xiao Ting looked at Bai Chuan, not knowing when there were tears in her eyes and then swirling. I can't tell if it's distress or excitement.
"Enter...... Inside, it's too cold outside! Bai Chuan didn't want to ask Xiao Ting why she came suddenly, the important thing was that she was right in front of her.
Xiao Ting patted a pair of red hands that were a little frozen, and then stretched out in front of Bai Chuan's eyes, and did not speak, staring at Bai Chuan with a pair of big eyes, just wanting to see what would happen to Bai Chuan.
"I ......" Bai Chuan was also taken aback, a little overwhelmed, looking at the pair of beautiful hands exposed in the cold air, in the end he still allowed himself to overcome his shyness, stretched out his hands, and held Xiao Ting's hands. Cheering the heat, he warmed Xiao Ting's hands, although both hands were cold, but the faces of the two people who were together were red.
"Don't frostbite your hands!" Bai Chuan was a little distressed, and finally directly put Xiao Ting's hands together and stuffed them into the wide sleeves of his military coat, one arm and one pair just stuffed the sleeves to the brim.
Xiao Ting felt that she had never been so well-behaved, but she felt that it was enough to look at Bai Chuan.
The two moved into the hut a little awkwardly. When he entered the house, Bai Chuan directly took off his military coat and wrapped Xiao Ting's hand tightly in it. Fold the quilt again and spread it on the edge of the bed, letting Xiao Ting sit on the quilt. turned around and picked up the black down jacket that he usually wears when he went out from the bed, and said to Xiao Ting in a whisper: "You wait here, I'll go and make the stove, and the house will be warm after a while." Shirakawa turned around and wanted to go out to see the stove, but when he opened the door, he turned around and added, "Don't take your hands out, it's warm inside your coat." ”
"Hmm......" Xiao Ting's tears finally flowed this time.
Not long after the outside was tinkering, Shirakawa entered the house with the stove and connected the smoke exhaust pipe again.
"Have you eaten in the morning?" While picking the fire of the stove the hottest, Bai Chuan asked Xiao Ting, who was still swinging her legs back and forth by the bed.
"There is no that! What, you're cooking for me? Xiao Ting had already secretly wiped away her tears, stared at Bai Chuan, and expressed her belief that Bai Chuan could cook.
"What's so difficult!" Bai Chuan looked at the ingredients for a long time, and finally decided to give Xiao Ting a bowl of instant noodles, of course, the most technical content is to add a poached egg to it.
"How did you learn to smoke?" Xiao Ting stood up and kicked several cigarette butts on the ground with her foot.
"It's boring, sometimes I smoke a cigarette at night in this wilderness, and I fall asleep in a daze." Shirakawa said a reason that he didn't even believe it.
"It's weird!" Xiao Ting walked behind Bai Chuan, who was brushing the pot and pouring water for cooking, and the hand of "sin" that had been absent for more than a year was once again twisted on Bai Chuan's ear.
"Alas...... Why haven't you forgotten this trick? Shirakawa held a wok in one hand and a shovel in the other, and tried to make a distorted expression on his face.
"In the future, you dare to smoke it!"
"Good...... Good...... If you don't smoke it, your ears are going to fall off! ”
Xiao Ting smiled and nodded, and finally let go of her hand.
The hut was much warmer, and the pot on the stove was steaming, so I took advantage of this time to wash my face, straighten my hair again, shave my beard, and give myself a good look.
Xiao Ting unintentionally flipped through the book on Bai Chuan's pillow, and suddenly, a book was thrown to the ground by Xiao Ting, "You ......" and then blushed and couldn't speak.
Shirakawa, who was wiping his face with a towel, turned his face to find a book full of beautiful mannequins on the ground.
This was embarrassing, Shirakawa blushed like the skin of a sweet potato, and hurriedly picked up the book and stuffed it under the mattress.
"Stinky rascal!" Xiao Ting opened her mouth first and said softly.
"Huh...... Heh" Bai Chuan can only laugh stupidly.
"Big brother, the water is boiling." Xiao Ting walked to the stove and staggered the lid of the pot. "And said you want to cook for me, I'll starve to death when you cook it, do you have noodles, and eggs?"
"Yes...... There was a ......, "You wait, Bai Chuan hurriedly took out a handful of noodles and two eggs and handed them to Xiao Ting."
Xiao Ting felt that the down jacket was a little awkward, so she turned around and took it off, folded it on the bed, rolled up the sleeves of the sweater, and began to concentrate on the noodles.
Shirakawa's face behind him turned red again.
Finally put the noodles and put the eggs in, Xiao Ting turned around and wanted to smack Bai Chuan a few times, but found that Bai Chuan was staring at him in a daze.
"Is there something wrong?" Xiao Ting asked Bai Chuan with a puzzled face, looking at herself. Finally Xiao Ting understood, picked up the spoon and was about to hit Bai Chuan. He still muttered "You stinky rascal!" Tell you to look at me! ”
The two of them chased one and the other hid in such a small hut.
There is no table for eating in the hut, according to the usual Bai Chuan, he just sits on the edge of the bed and hastily fills his stomach, today is a little different, Xiao Ting sat on the edge of the bed and ate slowly with a bowl, and from time to time looked at Bai Chuan, who was punished for squatting on the ground and gobbling up.
"Delicious, right?" Xiao Ting asked Bai Chuan, as if expecting a positive compliment.
"Delicious! Absolutely delicious! "How could Bai Chuan not know Xiao Ting's thoughts.
"Aside from my parents, you're the first one to eat my cooking!" Xiao Ting pointed at Bai Chuan with chopsticks.
"It's a great honor, especially for this high-tech poached egg!" Bai Chuan picked up an egg that could only be seen with chopsticks, and said to Xiao Ting with a smile.
After eating, it was almost noon, the cold outside was in stark contrast to the heat in the house, and on the plastic windows, the water formed by the collision of several hot and cold airs slipped silently.
There were no entertainment facilities in the house, there were a few books stacked on top of the bed, and Xiao Ting didn't dare to turn them over, for fear of turning out something that hurt her eyes.
Bai Chuan put on his clothes neatly, and found two new pairs of cotton gloves to put on Xiao Ting's hands, one pair of pairs. "Let's go, I'll take you to the ski! When you go out in the cold, you don't know how to wear gloves. ”
Xiao Ting looked at the two pairs of gloves that Bai Chuan brought to her for work, listening to Bai Chuan's complaints, although the gloves were a little ugly, she was indescribably happy in her heart. In fact, Xiao Ting brought gloves, but when she decided to sneak attack Bai Chuan with a snowball, she took them off and put them in her pocket. Shirakawa never saw it. While Bai Chuan was not paying attention, Xiao Ting stuffed her beautiful pink gloves under Bai Chuan's pillow.
In Xiao Ting's heart, I am afraid that the most beautiful gloves in the world now cannot compare to the two pairs that Bai Chuan wears for herself.
The sun was a little dazzling, and there was a world of snow as far as the eye could see, Bai Chuan took Xiao Ting's hand, and walked out of the orchard not far to a slightly sloping path, which was originally a path for people to go up the mountain to work during the autumn harvest, because it was winter, so no one came. The snow that had been falling for a few days in the past few days had not melted, so it became an unprocessed slope.
Shirakawa volunteered to do an experiment with himself first, and after going back and forth a few times, there were no stones and no rocks, and the snow was compacted, and a fairly perfect slide appeared. , he also piled up a few layers of thick snow at the end of the ramp as a buffer.
"Come, try, don't be afraid!" Bai Chuan climbed back to the starting point from the side of the snow slope and said to Xiao Ting.
"I'm not afraid of that!" Xiao Ting replied against her will. Slowly pulled up the down jacket a little more, and then sat at the beginning of the snow slope, with his feet back and forth, and finally his body automatically slid up, Xiao Ting didn't dare to open her eyes, but her mouth shouted loudly, if it was not here, but in the real snow mountain, it would definitely cause the kind of scream of blood collapse. In just a dozen seconds, Xiao Ting couldn't help herself, allowing Xiao Ting to experience unprecedented stimulation. When her body touched the thick snow, Xiao Ting dared to open her eyes.
It was the first time for Bai Chuan above to hear Xiao Ting screaming so loudly, holding his stomach and laughing. When Xiao Ting came to her senses, she picked up a snowball casually, and threw it at Bai Chuan, who was laughing at herself, and the snowball was thrown out, but before even half of the distance was reached, it fell to the ground regrettably. Xiao Ting slipped under her feet because of too much force, and sat back on the snowdrift. It had messy long hair and a lot of snow on it.
"Look at me!" Bai Chuan couldn't help but want to show off in front of Xiao Ting, and deliberately took a few steps back and stood to increase his speed, and when he wanted to sit down with his buttocks, he couldn't hold his feet anymore, so he fell directly on the snow track and slid down.
Looking at Bai Chuan, whose head was stuck in the snowdrift at the finish line, Xiao Ting mischievously put a large pile of snow on Bai Chuan's body with her arm, laughing, and muttering in her mouth, "Call you to laugh at me, see how fast your retribution comes." ”
Bai Chuan, who failed to pretend to be X, really couldn't find a rat hole to get into, but he didn't need it, his head was already in the hole. It's just that it's not a mouse hole, it's a snow hole out of your head, but the effect is still the same.
Xiao Ting seems to be addicted to playing, constantly asking for a trick of slipping, she let Bai Chuan in front of her, and then she followed closely behind, and when Bai Chuan reached the end, Xiao Ting also reached the end, but Xiao Ting's feet would always kick directly on Bai Chuan's ass in front, Bai Chuan shouted pain, but Xiao Ting laughed very loudly.
The two of them skated for an hour or two, back and forth, and the laughter never stopped.
In the winter in the north, the day is very short, and the sky begins to be dark at four o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Ting is going back, put away her smiling face, and is full of reluctance. Bai Chuan almost sent Xiao Ting to the entrance of her village, and the light left by the setting sun showed the shadows of the two people close together. Suddenly, Xiao Ting stood in front of Bai Chuan, and then pointed to the shadow behind Bai Chuan and said, "I have you in my shadow, and I have me in your shadow!" After saying that, he ran back to his hometown.
Before Bai Chuan could react, he looked at Xiao Ting, who was about to run away, made a trumpet shape with both hands in front of his mouth, and shouted loudly, "Will you come back tomorrow?" ”。
Xiao Ting in the distance didn't stop, just floated two crisp words: "You guess".
