Chapter 49: Winter Vacation

The snowflakes of the Colorful Christmas Tree bloom with the first snow in City A, and likewise disappear with the end of the first snow, leaving only a bare paper tree.

After the final exams, the winter vacation is coming, and Ruan Yu has a lot of free time, although there is much more homework in junior high school than in the winter vacation in elementary school.

She took the paper tree and the small plate from the windowsill of Meng Jiayue's room, threw them into the trash can, and then placed the cactus balls she had picked up on the roadside on the windowsill.

She bought the pale yellow porcelain flower pot with the cactus ball in the supermarket for seven yuan a piece, and the sand in the flower pot was dug in the green belt of the community garden, and it was almost found when she was digging.

"Since you like it so much, why don't you put it in your room?" Meng Jiayue looked at her from the side and asked.

"My mom won't let me." Ruan Yu sighed and said, "She said that this thing will take up space at home, and she also said that it will not bloom, and it is useless to raise it." ”

Meng Jiayue stretched out his hand, and Ruan Yu went over and sat down on his lap.

"Cactus balls are easy to feed, aren't they?"

"It's very easy to raise." Meng Jiayue nodded, touching Ruan Yu's hair and rubbing it against her neck.

"Itchy."

Ruan Yu shrunk her neck, with an instinctive smile on her face that was itchy because of it, she ducked back and refused: "Your hair is so itchy, don't lean over." ”

"Is there one?" Meng Jia made a gesture and leaned his face closer.

"Yes, yes." Ruan Yu hurriedly said.

Meng Jiayue suddenly laughed, pinched the flesh on her cheek, and said dotingly: "Don't lean over." ”

Ruan Yu looked at him, smiled suddenly, raised his hand around Meng Jiayue's neck, and found a comfortable position in his arms and half-closed his eyes.

The room was silent, except for the clatter of the alarm clock on the table.

"Snow." I don't know how long it took, Ruan Yu suddenly pointed out the window and shouted in surprise.

Meng Jiayue was awakened, turned his head to look in the direction pointed by Ruan Yu, and there were snowflakes floating outside the window, fluttering in the air.

"I want to go down and play in the snow." Ruan Yu hugged Meng Jiayue's arm and shook it flatteringly.

"Nope." Meng Jiayue directly refused.

Ruan Yu immediately drooped her head and pouted unhappily.

Meng Jiayue hugged the person tightly and coaxed: "Good, play with snow frozen hands, and it's still raining outside, it is estimated that you will get drenched in snow when you go out, and if you get frostbite again, you will have to get a needle." ”

"When will you be able to play?" Ruan Yu turned around and kicked his feet and asked.

"I'll stay with you sometime."

Ruan Yu jumped down from his lap, crossed his waist and said, "I remember what you said, don't cheat." ”

"Okay, good, don't cheat, good."

"That's pretty much it." Ruan Yu was slightly satisfied, turned around and threw himself on the bed again, kicked off his shoes a few times and got into the quilt.

"I'm going to sleep." After speaking, Ruan Yu covered her head and hid under the quilt.

Meng Jia smiled: "What do you sleep in the morning?" ”

"It's just to sleep." Ruan Yu's voice came from under the quilt.

"Okay, sleep." Meng Jiayue smiled helplessly, got up and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and reached into the quilt to pull Ruan Yu's feet out.

"What are you doing?" Ruan Yu showed half of his face, his eyes glared at Meng Jiayue, and asked angrily.

Meng Jiayue didn't answer, rubbing the red anklet worn by Ruan Yu's ankle, his expression uncertain.

"Cold." Ruan Yu kicked him and said dissatisfiedly.

Meng Jiayue looked at her with a smile, Ruan Yu kicked off her shoes and went directly to the quilt, and she didn't take off her socks, and the beige kitten pattern socks were put on her feet, making her feet small and cute.

But even if you don't have socks, it's cute, Meng Jiayue thought silently in her heart. After taking off his socks, he secretly poked Ruan Yu's white and tender toes, resisted the urge to rub them, and stuffed Ruan Yu's feet back into the quilt before she got angry.

"Don't take off the anklet."

"I can't take it off, it's all dead." Ruan Yu turned over and lay on the bed holding the quilt.

"Sleep!"

"Can't sleep." Ruan Yu smiled embarrassedly, moved into the bed, patted the position next to him and said, "You also come up to sleep." ”

Meng Jiayue stretched out his hand and rubbed her head vigorously, the expression on his face was helpless and doting, and then he lifted the corner of the quilt and lay in.

Ruan Yu immediately hugged Meng Jiayue familiarly, and while shrinking into his arms, he rubbed on him with a satisfied face.

A few days before the Chinese New Year, Zheng Yuan came again, wearing a low double ponytail, wearing a bear hairpin, wearing a plush rabbit cloak, and a plaid short skirt, and went straight to Ruan Yu as soon as she entered the door.

The first thing he said was: "Did the good-looking handsome guy come last time?" ”

Ruan Yu shook his head and replied perfunctorily: "No." ”

"Why don't you come?"

Ruan Yu couldn't answer, but fortunately, Zheng Yuan's sentence was just asking herself, she held her chin and sighed, and said with a melancholy face: "Can't I see him today?" I didn't expect to come all the way over, and I didn't even see the shadow of a handsome guy, why is my life so bitter? ”

"Look at what you said, Meng Jiayue is in his own home, what else can you do if you can't see it? What's the matter? Ruan Yue laughed when she heard this, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and clicked.

"I'm here to see handsome guys." Zheng Yuan rushed over and grabbed Ruan Yue, and said flatteringly: "Sister, do you know where the handsome guy is?" Why don't you take me out for a walk! ”

Ruan Yue stretched out a finger against her forehead and pushed the person away, pretending to be disgusted and said, "Go, go, stay away." ”

While the two of them were talking, Ruan Yu got up and left the living room to go back to the room, she was watching "Dream of Red Mansions" these days, but she didn't understand the original version yet, so she could only watch the teen version.

It's just that it hasn't been clean for long before Ruan Yue comes in with Zheng Yuan.

"You sit here." Ruan Yue moved the bench over.

Ruan Yu poked her head out of the bed and looked down, and saw Zheng Yuan sitting down at the desk, Ruan Yue was so excited that she took the mirror and put it in front of her, then took her hair apart, scattered it on her back, and took a comb to comb her hair.

Looking at this situation, you know that she wants to tie her hair, Ruan Yue has long hair, so when she was still in junior high school before, Ruan Yu often saw her fiddling with her hair in the mirror, and she was doing it for most of the day, and the drawers of the desk were basically Ruan Yue's headband hairpins.

is also because Ruan Yue often dresses herself, so she is especially good at tying her hair, but Ruan Yu's hair is short and can't be tied, but Zheng Yuan's hair is long, longer than Ruan Yue's hair.

"What do you want to pierce?" Ruan Yue asked.

"He also tied a double ponytail with my clothes."

Ruan Yu stretched out her head curiously, and forgot to read the book in her hand.

It didn't take long for Ruan Yue to get her hair right, and she still tied it with a double ponytail, but she separated the two strands of hair on the basis of the double ponytail, braided two braids, twisted them into a ring and tied them with a leather band, and fixed the hair with a small black hairpin, and then the excess part was fused into a single strand with the ponytail, tied with a rabbit head rope, and hung down on her chest.

"How?" Ruan Yue raised her chin, very satisfied with her hair.

"Beautiful!"

Zheng Yuan stood up in surprise and turned around in front of the mirror, pulling her braids and loving it.

Ruan Yue raised her head and said to Ruan Yu, "Is it good-looking?" If you have long hair, I'll tie it for you. ”

Ruan Yu didn't speak, holding the book and lowering her head to continue reading, she thought that she would never be able to grow long hair in her life.

At noon, I ate in the restaurant outside, and there were eight people sitting at the big round table in the private room, and the wine brought by Ruan's father from home was poured with my cousin-in-law before the food came up.

Ruan Yu sat under the air conditioner, but the heat couldn't blow her, and there was a window next to her, and the cold wind came in through the gap from time to time, and her hands were shaking from the cold.

Originally, I wanted to eat some hot dishes to warm up, but at the beginning, all the dishes were cold, and Ruan Yu only sandwiched a few slices of beef to pad her stomach.

When he was about to finish eating, the waiter brought a dish of shredded sweet potatoes, this dish Ruan Yu liked very much, but before he could clip a few chopsticks, Ruan's mother divided all the things into Zheng Yuan and Ruan Kangming's bowls, because they also liked to eat.

didn't catch anything, Ruan Yu silently took back the chopsticks, scooped a bowl of soup and drank it slowly.

It was almost two o'clock when she got home, Ruan Yu climbed into bed and continued to read "Dream of Red Mansions", she had already read most of it, because she was going to practice the piano at four o'clock, Ruan Yu took the book, and continued to read it at Meng Jiayue's place after practicing.

The door of the room was closed, Meng Jiayue was writing, Ruan Yu moved a chair to sit next to him, and stayed within Meng Jiayue's line of sight.

The room was quiet, only the sound of a pen scratching on the paper, the clatter of the second hand moving, and the milk on the table was still steaming, waiting for Ruan Yu to drink.

After a long time, Ruan Yu suddenly shouted with a crying voice: "Meng Jiayue." ”

"What's wrong?" Meng Jiayue immediately put down the pen and looked over.

Ruan Yu shed tears and said intermittently: "I...... I don't know, it's just ...... Daiyu is dead...... And then...... Then Baoyu married...... Married someone else......"

Meng Jia hurriedly hugged Ruan Yu into his arms, and said while wiping her tears: "Why are you crying like this? Well, it's just in the book, don't cry, baby. ”

"Meng Jiayue, Meng Jiayue ......"

Ruan Yu called his name, shrunk into Meng Jiayue's arms and cried breathlessly, and couldn't stop crying.

"Good, baby, Xiaoyu, there is me! Don't cry, it's just a novel. Meng Jiayue held her in his arms and coaxed her, patted her back and comforted her softly.

Although Ruan Yu used to be made to cry when reading a book, it was the first time she cried like this, and it took more than ten minutes to gradually stop her tears.

"But...... But why? Ruan Yu was still a little sobbed, and asked Meng Jiayue persistently: "Obviously, Baoyu likes Daiyu, why does he want to marry someone else?" Can't you not marry? ”

"Baby, this is idealistic." Meng Jiayue touched Ruan Yu's hair and replied when he heard the words.

"What idealization?"

Meng Jiayue rubbed Ruan Yu's head, pulled out a piece of paper to wipe her tears, and coaxed: "You will know later, but not now." Good, let me tell you a little secret, you know? There is no ending to this book, and the ending you see is continued by someone else, so no one knows the real ending, maybe they are together? Don't be sad. ”

"Really?" Ruan Yu looked at Meng Jiayue with red eyes and asked in disbelief.

"It's true."

Meng Jiayue kissed Ruan Yu on the eye, took the milk on the table, and said, "If you don't drink it again, it will be cold, drink it quickly." ”

Ruan Yu instantly forgot the sadness just now, and stared at the milky liquid in the glass, as if looking at the mortal enemy of his life.
