Chapter 20: It's a Strange Journey
Xiang Yang sat paralyzed on the balcony, looking at the sky, his sorrow could not be released, the man did not flick if he had tears, the man was a steel body, and he could not be weak. But after such a long search, he could no longer raise his confidence.
Some roads have been walked over and over again, disappointing over and over again. She was still so stubborn and left here like she was leaving home.
Tang Yuan's text messages are like weather forecasts, which are staged every day.
A knock on the door sounded, and Xiang Yang lazily walked to open the door: "Why are you here?" ”
Chen Chen looked like a cannibal: "Bastard, where are the fools?" I can't find anyone, my mobile phone can't get through, do you know how hard Tang Yuan is looking for you? ”
"She looked for you?" Xiang Yang asked expressionlessly.
"It's not easy for me to cry in front of me all day, it's not easy for me to fucking be your brother." Chen Chen was so angry that he wanted to beat him up.
Xiang Yang bowed his head and walked to the balcony, "Morning, these days, I'm not having a good time. He lit a cigarette and took a puff, "I'm not having a good time." ”
Another sentence "I'm not doing well", Chen Chen almost felt that it was an illusion, "What's wrong?" Is Tang Yuan so terrible? ”
"My dad wants me to go abroad," Xiang Yang lowered his head, "but I can't let go of one thing." ”
"Yumoto?"
"It's not." Xiang Yang simply replied with two words.
"What else could concern you so much?" Chen Chen found for the first time that the other party was suppressed like this, with a long beard on his face, how could he look like a college student, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a man in his thirties, where was the once suave and thunderous son?
Xiang Yang took out a bank card and hesitated, "Life seems to go in an incredible circle, but life often doesn't end in the shape of a circle." For the first time, I felt scared, scared of the present, scared of the future. ”
In a short period of time, he had already lit the third cigarette, took a puff of the cigarette, and coughed a few times, "In the morning, there are 10,000 in this card, I think, please give it to Tang Yuan, while the child is still young, ...... it early"
"Don't you ......" Chen Chen suppressed what he wanted to say.
"I can't have happiness with her, because I don't know if I can still be happy, so I don't want her to lose happiness because of me." When he said this, Xiang Yang seemed to have been given a secret decree by the god of death, and happiness had no chance of him.
Chen Chen was blinded when he heard this, "What the hell is going on?" What can't be solved by making you like this overnight? ”
"Morning, don't ask, can you help me with this?"
"Okay, I'll help you with Tang Yuan's affairs to the end, but you must make sure that you are safe and sound."
"Thank you!"
Chen left in the morning, and swept the house to Yang Yan, a flower and a grass, a person and a thing, and the layout was simple and vivid. It was only a place to stay, and because of her appearance, it was added to the color; Because of her departure, it has become cold and cold, and it is about to become a place for him to rest his soul.
"Xiao Xiang, the rental contract is about to expire, and I have decided to sell the house, so I hereby inform you that you have made arrangements in advance."
"How much?"
"If you know something, I don't raise the price, the price is 150,000, and all the handling fees will be paid by the buyer."
A few days ago, the landlord's notice ordered Xiang Yang to have to make arrangements, and he took out his mobile phone: "Dad, I need 180,000, can you lend it to me?" This was the first time he had asked his father to borrow money, although he had been talking wildly and would not reach out to his father.
After about a few tens of seconds, the other end of the phone said: "I will give you 200,000, but, the premise is that you go abroad, this is the only condition, think clearly, call me." ”
The sound of "beep" sounded, and Xiang Yang knew that leaving was the best choice, and once heard her shouting loudly in a dream: If you want to jump out of the farm, you must let your parents live a good life.
The best compensation is to help her realize her ideals, this is his mission, and it is destined from the beginning of that night. After living for so many years, he finally had a dream, a real dream.
He called his father: "Deal, I still need to stay in China for a month, and after a month, I have no words." ”
Time can't be wasted by him, if he doesn't find her, how can he go to New York with peace of mind. Only with hard work can he convince a restless heart.
"Yes, the money will be transferred to your card for you in the afternoon."
Xu Feng was so angry that he didn't come to the happy community for a month, and started the road of searching alone. The scene of the life of the three people is always like a wandering spirit, echoing in his mind, it is a very happy and wonderful time, but the beauty is being fiercely powdered by Xiang Yang, how to resent, I can't help it.
Alcohol is a harmful substance, and when he was a child, his father, who was an alcoholic, always beat and scolded him when he was drunk, and he also scolded his mother, who was willing to endure a hellish life in order to support the family, so he hated this kind of thing, and he hated his father as well.
His father was in a car accident due to drunk driving, except for a trace of sadness, he did not leave a single tear, and it turned out that after the death of his father, he lived well with his mother and grandmother. My grandmother's serious illness gradually improved, and my mother's small business became bigger and bigger.
After many negotiations with the landlord, Xiang Yang bought the cottage. Then, he began a new round of searching, telling himself: give himself another chance to atone for his sins, and if he can't find it, he will resign himself to fate. Go abroad for further study and return early.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Xiang Yang had to keep his promise.
He stood in the garden, knowing that autumn was really coming. Since my mother passed away, I have never taken a good look at this home, maybe I didn't regard this place as my home, so when I looked at it, I didn't have much emotion.
The stepmother bangs and the nanny put the luggage in the car, and the father drove him to the airport, but he did not refuse, which can be regarded as the farewell of the two fathers and sons.
Sitting in the speeding car, looking at the scenery outside the window to Yang, remembering that unforgettable weekend, he took out a group photo from the book, looked at Xiaoyu's innocent smile, and smiled inadvertently.
This scene was being seen by Xiang Kaihuai: "Yang'er, this trip can only rely on yourself." Over the years, there has been very little communication between our father and son, and forcing you to go abroad just wanted to help your mother fulfill her wish and wronged you. ”
Xiang Yang looked up, and saw a few gray hairs on his father's head, remembering the gratitude she had told him, his heart couldn't help but tremble: "Dad, I know, you are at home, take care." ”
The son has changed! The cold arrogance and cold words were gone, Xiang Kaihuai felt warm all over his body, and he also felt a burst of guilt, he was also a proud man, he didn't want to talk to his son in a low voice, and he didn't want to explain the same thing over and over again.
"Everything is arranged abroad."
Xiang Yang simply said one word: "Okay." ”
Then the two men stopped talking and remained silent.
……
Xiao Yu sat in front of the window, feeling flustered, but fortunately, after her repeated requests, they finally agreed to discharge herself. Time is like a sharp knife, cutting the flesh and blood on her body all the time, and those scenes of farm work sweating like rain under the sky often float and sink in her mind:
The sound of cutting rice sounded in his ears, and he put down a handful of rice ears in his voice, due to the rise in temperature, the dew was evaporated, and the left hand that grabbed the rice ears felt better, but his whole body was hot.
Xiao Tian looked up and whispered: "Don't bend over and chirp and cut, be careful to become a rickety old woman." ”
"I'm young, and the old woman is thousands of miles away from me." Seeing Xiao Tian working hard, Xiao Yu was not lazy, and a tight clattering sound sounded, "If they only want to complete the task, how can they laugh." ”
"The little sister must have been a female marshal or a military strategist full of wealth in ancient times." Xiaotian replied while cutting the rice.
Xiao Yu stood up, pulled his pants, and became interested: "If I was born in ancient times as a military strategist or marshal, do you think I am a decent person or a villain?" ”
"What do you think?"
"It should be a villain, and it may also cause a lot of harm to the people, so now it is baked by this sun like a furnace."
"Haha...... And it's not like we're all villains. Xiao Tian smiled.
A burst of heat hit, Xiao Yu looked up and measured the sun in the sky, and frowned: "The descendants have shot nine suns, why is it still so hot?" You said that without him, we wouldn't be burned to ashes by the sun now. ”
"Maybe he has limited ability, and he shot nine weak suns." Xiao Tianle joked, "Without him, it is estimated that you would have become an African girl long ago." ”
"Xiaotian, let's see, I will definitely become a snow-white big fat man in the future, and I will definitely compare you to you." Seeing that his brother shook off the sweat drops on his face, Xiao Yu followed suit, almost throwing himself in the field, making Xiao Tianqian lean back.
Jia Yun came in with a bag of medicine: "The discharge procedures have been completed, now I feel comfortable, right?" ”
"That's natural comfort, what's so fun about this hospitalization, I'm bored in this house every day, and I can't hold back the problem if there's no problem." There was a pleasant voice in the whisper's words.
Jia Yun said while packing up his belongings: "Who likes to be hospitalized, it's not that I'm afraid that you won't be able to do well, in case there are any sequelae left, this makes people worry a lot." ”
Zhang Yan walked in and said with a smile: "You are like a pair of debaters, you have been debating for several days." Xiaoyu, you can't wash your hair yet, you can only wipe your head with warm water, and no matter how uncomfortable you are, you have to endure it, so as not to leave sequelae; The medicine prescribed by the hospital should be taken on time, and if there is any discomfort, you should contact the doctor immediately. ”
"Sister Zhang Yan, thank you for taking care of me for so long."
Zhang Yan smiled and grabbed Xiaoyu's hand: "It is my duty to take care of you, during the recovery period, remember to use your brain less, especially when you are tired of reading, let your brain relax and relax." ”
"This is some nutritional products, it is a little bit of Auntie's heart, I hope you don't refuse." Jia Yun is very fond of Zhang Yan, she is careful and never brings color to patients, such a nurse is not easy to find.
Zhang Yan thought for a while, looked at the expectant looks on the faces of the two, and smiled slightly: "Thank you, I will definitely finish eating." ”
"It's all done, let's go home!" Xia Xiongwei held a stack of sheets.
Xiaoyu walked out of the ward with a cane, thinking of the tenacious Aunt Mo, an iron-clad woman. What's so terrible, no matter how much suffering and pain there is, it is far inferior to the old people of the previous generation.
Xia Xiongwei drove towards the Sunshine Jincheng Community, looking out the window silently, and the vehicle was driving slowly in a stop and walk.
"Xiaoyu, the winter vacation is coming soon, and this school will not go for the time being." Jia Yun took Xiao Yu's hand, "Are you still planning to go back to Mojia Village for the New Year?" ”
At this time, Xiaoyu turned his head and turned his back to the car window: "I told my family before, I would go home for the New Year during the holiday, but there was a car accident, in order to save my parents from worrying, I will celebrate the New Year in the city, uncles and aunts will not dislike Xiaoyu, right?" ”
"Silly boy, it's too late for uncles and aunts to be happy."
At this time, Xiang Yang's car passed by slowly, and in a car that had just driven by opposite, a girl wrapped in white gauze was sitting.
Xiang Yang's heart slipped instantly, and he told his father to stop, and when he stood on the ground, the car had already driven away.
Maybe it's just a coincidence, how could something happen to Xiaoyu, she is so smart and can take care of people, she won't allow herself to have an accident.
When I arrived at the airport, I saw Chen Chen and Xu Feng waiting at the door. Xiang Yang said to his father: "Dad, I'll say a few words to my classmates, you wait for me in the waiting room." ”
"Okay." Xiang Kaihuai looked at his watch, "Long story short, less than an hour." ”
"I have a concept." After speaking, Xiang Yang got out of the car and walked in front of the two, "Thank you, brother, for coming to see you off, Xiang Yang is very grateful." ”
Xu Feng's fist hit Xiang Yang on the shoulder: "You still treat us as brothers, you don't say a word in advance when you go abroad, just leave, is there a brother like you?" ”
At this time, Xiang Yang, in Xu Feng's eyes, was like a person who came out of prison, he had long lost his previous radiance, and his charming pride was gone.
He regretted that he shouldn't have treated him like this, after he lost his most beloved little girl, and he lost his brother.
"I wish you a successful return from your studies." Chen Chen said lightly, "It's better." Tang Yuan's matter has been done, you go out well, and come back well. ”
"That's for sure." Xiang Yang bumped Chen Chen with his shoulder, "Thank you for handling a very headache for me." ”
"What else do you have to explain?" Xu Feng asked.
Xiang Yang handed the small backpack in his hand to Xu Feng: "You look at the contents first, and then hand it over to the person who remarks." ”
Xu Feng didn't ask, and took it directly.
"I've got to go in, goodbye."
"It must be good."
"Everybody's going to be good." Xiang Yang straightened his coat, walked towards the airport with big strides, and stretched out his right hand behind him to wave goodbye.
The moment he walked to the airport, staring at his back, Xu Feng sighed: "How many people's fates have changed in a single thought." ”
The plane took off, and Xiang Yang squinted and sat down.
A snow-white expanse, a gentle white feather fell on the back of his hand, he raised his head, it was snowing! The snowflakes in winter are so wonderful!
"Brother Yang, hurry up, run, hurry, hurry." Xiao Yu shouted as she ran on her sleigh.
He carried a shovel and ran into the whiter snow: "Wait for me, what kind of snowman shall we build?" ”
"Pile up a male angel, such as a handsome angel like Brother Yang, I think it will definitely make a stunning debut." Xiao Yu smiled playfully, and after saying that, he took the sleigh and piled it up.
"No, there are no male angels, only male heroes."
"It didn't before, but now it starts to happen."
"Not now, not in the future."
"Okay then, let's pile up a big fat man who is snow-white."
The sound of laughter pierced the sky and through the thick clouds......
