"Yes. That's right. Xiong Yanfei was a little excited, "Your sensibility is different." What about the second one? ”

"I think I've heard the second one somewhere. I don't know if it's on the radio or on the TV. ”

"It is Beethoven's "To Alice", which is Beethoven's only popular and elegant song, with a simple and intimate theme, depicting a gentle and beautiful girl."

"Mo can't be Beethoven's first love, right?" I make a guess.

"It seems to be. But the piano teacher didn't tell me. Xiong Yanfei turned her face away.

Sitting at the dining table at Xiong Yanfei's house, I was more reserved. However, the whole meal was very enjoyable. Xiong Yanfei's father insisted that I accompany him for some drink.

"I won't drink it." I excuse myself.

"Drink a little. The young man will not drink anymore, and it is not a problem to drink a few taels. It's a fine wine. Xiong Yanfei's father said.

"Then pour me some." I had no choice but to let go of the hand holding the rim of the cup.

Xiong Yanfei's father poured me half a glass of wine.

"I'm scared I'm going to get drunk." I say.

"Get drunk once, it's fine. Get some sleep and you'll be fine. "Xiong Yanfei's father comforted me.

"Then I will respect my uncle and aunt and Xiong Yanfei and your family, thank you for your kind invitation." I stood up.

"Well, eat more vegetables, eat whatever you like." Xiong Yanfei's father took a big sip. I could clearly hear him drinking.

Xiong Yanfei's mother took a piece of meat and put it in my bowl. "It's lamb, eat more. Meals in the cafeteria will be worse. ”

"Thank you." I was impressed.

"Don't clip, eat whatever you want. Come, let's drink. "Xiong Yanfei's father drank very happily, and he drank half a glass of wine in three bites." Set sail, you are a young man with a great sense of justice. We, the police, appreciate this kind of character the most. ”

"I think my uncle is very straightforward and has a military temperament." I said intuitively.

"You guessed it. I was a soldier for five years. transferred to the local government and then entered the public security bureau. Xiong Yanfei's father said proudly.

"My uncle served as the deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau at such a young age, and his future is limitless. I respect you. I craned my neck and drank the wine in my glass in one gulp.

"You're a good talker. Uncle likes to hear this. Xiong Yanfei's father picked up the cup and drank the wine in the cup.

"I said Zheng Qihang, I usually see you silently and quietly, but it's very powerful to praise my father." Xiong Yanfei said.

"I didn't mean to praise my uncle, I was talking about my true feelings." I feel a little hot in the face.

"Dad, you know what? Zheng Qihang usually can't say a few words to me. ”

"That's steady. Come, young man, I salute you, and wish you success in your studies, and you have drained a little wine from your glass. Xiong Yanfei's father took the initiative to add alcohol and drink.

I drank the wine from the glass.

"One more. Still saying you can't drink it? "Xiong Yanfei's father inspired me.

"I really don't drink much. Today, though, the atmosphere is different. Add me half a cup. "I can't find North after half a glass of wine.

"Good. Young people just want this kind of refreshment. I thank you for saving my daughter. Tell you, those thugs bullied my daughter, I wanted to go to school and find them out and tidy them up, but my daughter didn't agree. She didn't even want anyone to know that her father was the deputy head of the Public Security Bureau. Xiong Yanfei's father took another sip.

I felt a pang in my heart.

"Of course. When I get along with my classmates, I want to have a simpler relationship. Xiong Yanfei said, "Dad, as soon as you show up, it's not fun." ”

"That's fine. Be low-key. Your grandfather was just too high-profile to be killed. Xiong Yanfei's father said.

"Did Grandpa die miserably?" Xiong Yanfei asked.

"yes. Your grandfather was beaten to death by those special people. ”

"You eat well, why do you talk about these things?" Xiong Yanfei's mother interrupted the conversation between father and daughter.

"Don't say, don't say. We drink. Xiong Yanfei's father retracted the topic.

"My grandfather also died a terrible death." I say.

"How did your grandfather die?" Xiong Yanfei's father asked. The family of three all looked at me.

"I heard my father tell me that my grandfather was killed when he was five years old and hanged himself."

"Hey." Xiong Yanfei's father sighed.

"My grandfather was from another party, and he tried very hard to change it, but he was still made into an alternative. In that special era, my father was also intensively studied for this historical reason, and I saw my father being rectified with my own eyes. "It was as if I was seeing blood dripping from my parents' hands again.

"How old are you to remember so clearly?" Xiong Yanfei's mother asked.

"Thirteen years old. I was born in a remote area, so I am relatively lagging behind in sports. I said.

Xiong Yanfei kept looking at me.

"It doesn't matter how old you are, once you see it, you'll never forget it." Xiong Yanfei's mother said.

"Mom, Dad, didn't you say that you were also criticized? Why am I not impressed at all? Xiong Yanfei spoke.

"Where have you ever seen us being criticized? Besides, our fellow people there are very good to us, only symbolic criticism, and we have not suffered much in this regard. Xiong Yanfei's father said.

After drinking the second half glass of wine, Xiong Yanfei's father still wanted to add wine to me, but I didn't agree again, so I gave up. They could already see that I had drunk too much.

After eating, Xiong Yanfei's father went out because of something in the unit. Her mother went upstairs to take a morning break. There were just two of us left on the huge first floor.

Xiong Yanfei added some hot water to the teacup I was drinking.

"Didn't drink too much, did you?" Xiong Yanfei looked at me with flashing eyes.

"Drank too much. Really drank too much. "I touched my hot face.

"Haven't you drunk before?"

"I've drunk a little, but I haven't drunk that much. Your dad is so gracious. I said.

"My dad was an alcoholic. If you're not drunk, I'd like to invite you to my study. I've heard that you love to read. ”

"Okay." I got up from my position. I shook my body.

Xiong Yanfei came over and hugged me. "Did you really drink too much?"

"It's fine." I took the initiative to distance myself from Xiong Yanfei.

"What books have you read?" Xiong Yanfei and I walked side by side.

"I've read Ba Jin's, Lu Xun's, Yu Dafu's, and some foreign masterpieces."

"Have you seen Barkin's Autumn in Spring?"

"Yes. I also watched "The Garden". I said.

"I watched it too. I watched it several times. The destruction of young men and women in feudal society was too cruel. Every time I watched it, I shed tears for the hostess. Xiong Yanfei said.

"It was only after reading these books that I felt that my spiritual world had been transformed. Before, I only read martial arts novels, and I wasn't afraid of your jokes. I said.

"Martial arts novels are meant to entertain people, and novels like this make people think. Have you watched Bordertown? ”

"What is it made of?"

"It's a novella by Shen Congwen, and it's very well written. If you haven't read it, I can lend you the book. ”

"I haven't seen it. Thank you. "I didn't expect Xiong Yanfei to read so widely. If it weren't for reading some books during the summer vacation, I really couldn't hold my head up in front of her.

We walked into the study together. I can't imagine that there would be so many books in private collections. Definitely no less than a small library.

I picked up a book of Yasunari Kawabata's novels and was immediately attracted to "The Dancing Girl of Izu". I unconsciously immersed myself in the plot of the novel.

"Do you like it?" I don't know when Xiong Yanfei came to my side.

"It's so well written." I turned my head. Because Xiong Yanfei was too close to me, the face I turned around was close to Xiong Yanfei's face.

"Ah, it smells of wine." Xiong Yanfei took a step back.

"I'm sorry."

"Whose novel are you reading?" Xiong Yanfei stepped forward again. She was almost leaning on my body.

My heart was racing. "I don't know who wrote it," I looked at the writing, "Yasunari Kawabata's "The Dancing Girl of Izu." ”

"What is written?"

"This? It tells the story of a teenager's hazy love for a geisha of the same age he meets occasionally. "I took out a sentence from the synopsis of the novel.

"I've also flipped through this book, and I'm reading a novella, which seems to be called "Snow Country". But I don't understand it. ”

I flipped the book back. An object slipped out of the book and fell to the ground.

It's a photo!

I leaned over to pick it up. Xiong Yanfei leaned down at the same time. Comedicly, we met.

"Oops." Xiong Yanfei screamed.

"Crashed?" I asked hurriedly. Judging by the pain in my forehead, I can assume that the impact just now had some force.

"You iron head, why are you so hard?" Xiong Yanfei said angrily.

"Excuse me? Why don't I rub it for you? I looked at Xiong Yanfei sincerely.

"The beauty of thought." Xiong Yanfei smiled, "Do you want to fight any bad ideas?" ”

"Ah, no. Absolutely nothing. I'm wrong, I'm wrong. "I was incoherent and my face was hot, as if I had been slapped in the face.

"I'm kidding you." Xiong Yanfei saw my embarrassment, "You take it too seriously." ”

I picked up the photo that had fallen on the ground. In the photo, Xiong Yanfei is wearing a white dress, smiling extremely charmingly, and putting her left hand in front of her mouth, wanting to hide it, which adds to the beauty.

"Give me the picture." Xiong Yanfei said.

I was still watching infatuatedly.

Xiong Yanfei snatched the photo. "How can anyone stare at other people's photos like this?"

"Ah, me, me." I feel like my face is getting hotter.

"Poof," Xiong Yanfei couldn't help but laugh, "You're really fun drinking." The old-fashioned look is gone. ”

"I really drank too much." I say.

"This photo was taken last summer. I've been looking for it for a long time and didn't expect to be sandwiched between this book. ”

"It's beautiful."

"How beautiful the light is? Am I not beautiful? Xiong Yanfei tilted her head and squinted at me.

"No, I mean, look." I stammered. It dawned on me about my plan. Isn't Shi Zhiqiang's request just a photo of Xiong Yanfei?
