The meal was eaten very slowly, everyone laughed and laughed, and when it was finally finished, it was dark outside.

By the time the maids followed Su Su to remove all the dishes, Pei Yuanxiu was still washing his hands, and I had already walked to the door, looking at the darkness of the night outside, as if a heavy dark blue curtain had fallen from the sky.

It's getting late.

As soon as he came here, he said that he would set off fireworks for Li'er, so that he would not go back until at least after the hour.

I couldn't help frowning.

When the time comes, it will be too late.

It's natural to say that it's wrong to let people go so late, but he stayed, just two huts, and so many people, how to live?

However, New Year's Eve is a vigil......

But what about the surrounding villagers, will they misunderstand me and him again......

I was still thinking about it, and a familiar aura had come over me, and he stood behind me and smiled, "What are you thinking?" ”

"Ah......?" I looked back at him, and although the night was deep, his eyes were extraordinarily bright, and when I looked at me like this, they were full of joy.

That kind of pleasure made my anxiety just now slightly relaxed.

In the end, it's the New Year......

So, he smiled faintly and said, "I'm thinking, how beautiful those fireworks you brought to Li'er." ”

When he heard this, his eyes lit up, and he smiled and waved his hand.

The attendants immediately brought over the boxes containing the fireworks.

Li'er was so happy that she was about to go crazy, and she stumbled up to pick it up to play, and the attendants hurriedly came up to take her, naturally they were afraid that she would burn themselves, and lit the first fireworks, and immediately a fire tree rose in the small courtyard, and the brilliant fireworks suddenly bloomed, crackling, and illuminating the whole courtyard.

Then they put several more, and the children around them rushed over in surprise when they saw the fire trees and silver flowers here, thousands of purples and thousands of reds, but they didn't dare to enter the door, and they lay on the courtyard gate and watched with blank eyes.

Li'er hurriedly beckoned: "You guys come to play too!" Little pillar, Doudou, you all come! ”

Those children were still a little cautious, maybe Pei Yuanxiu's storage zài made them a little afraid, but in the end, they couldn't resist the temptation of fireworks, they all ran in with laughter, and they were also generous, and distributed the fireworks to everyone, and the children went everywhere, and for a time the ceiling bloomed, and the bead curtains fell, and the entire small fishing village was set on fire.

In the end, Lian Susu couldn't hold back and started playing.

I leaned against the door and stood at the fire tree and silver flowers in front of me, reflecting the night sky, as if the whole cold world had rejuvenated in an instant, full of happiness and laughter, but my vision was blurred under such a brilliant fireworks.

In fact, in the past year, I have been very happy, not only the physical wounds, but even the heart wounds, have also healed in such a peaceful life, the happiness of the long stream.

It's just that if you have been hurt, you have been hurt.

What's more, it was my first wound as an incompetent mother, even if the injury was healed and scabbed, there was still a scar there, and I usually didn't touch it, I didn't look at it closely, and I almost forgot about it, but under such fireworks, it was clearly illuminated.

It seems that the pain of the past is also faintly troubled.

"Are you sad?"

Pei Yuanxiu's voice sounded in my ears at once, and immediately woke me up from my memories, and I just reacted, he had been standing by my side, looking at my eyes illuminated by fireworks, and maybe there was a streamer flickering, I hurriedly lowered my head and rubbed the corners of my eyes in disguise: "No." ”

"Lying."

Two words, simple but sure.

I looked up and met his gaze. He looked at me calmly and said, "I can see it." ”

I was a little uncomfortable to be looked at by such a gaze, as if I was reflected by such bright fireworks, his eyes seemed hot, there was a burning pain to be seen through, I turned my head away, and said lightly: "That's also over." ”

In a word, I also completely separated myself from those past me.

It's all gone, no matter how painful it is, no matter how difficult it is, it won't bleed, and it won't even keep me awake at night, it's just that faint pain that reminds me of the truth of those things.

It also made me understand one thing more.

The living have a responsibility to be happier than the dead.

Pei Yuanxiu still looked at me, and I had completely regained my calm, and began to really appreciate the splendor of those fireworks, and the excited and innocent smiling faces of the children, in such a winter night, it seemed warmer and more comfortable than guarding the fire. Li'er dragged out a big firework from the box, and ran over to grab Pei Yuanxiu's hand: "Daddy, you are also going to set off fireworks!" ”

Pei Yuanxiu looked at her with a smile, and then looked at me: "You are coming too?" ”

I shook my head: "I'll just look at it." ”

"Okay, I'll show you the most beautiful one."

I couldn't help but smile, didn't say anything, I saw him being led by Li'er, at this time basically the fireworks he brought were about to run out, and when those fireworks went out, the surroundings slowly darkened, and the largest one was left in the middle of the yard, and the children around were also gathered, and everyone looked at it with great anticipation. Pei Yuanxiu walked over, took a incense stick from the attendant's hand, and carefully lit the fuse.

The fuse hit, making a zzi sound, and soon the fever subsided.

Pei Yuanxiu took a step back, and heard a "bang", a ball of fireworks rushed into the sky, jumped into the night sky at once, and then exploded, blooming with a bang, as if holding out a hundred silk lamps out of thin air, gold, silver, red, blue, green, purple, for a time millions of flowers bloomed colorfully, as if there was a pair of invisible hands to hold out those flowers, and overflowing sprinkled down, one after another, like countless stars flashing, and finally slid down like meteors, still jumping on the ground, like a pearl scattered, dripping and jumping.

The entire Jixiang Village was lit up!

What beautiful fireworks!

I was stunned, and Pei Yuanxiu was standing on the other side of the fireworks, he still had a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were shining brightly, looking at me intently.

In the fireworks, it was as if he and I were just staring at each other.

I don't know if it's because of the fireworks, his gaze seems to have a scorching temperature, and I feel a little uneasy, and I subconsciously turn my head away, trying to avoid his gaze.

And at this moment, in the brilliant light of the fireworks, I suddenly saw a cold light, which flashed with a whoosh.

It was as if the flash of light when I first entered the door made me chill.

The smile on Pei Yuanxiu's face froze suddenly.

I barely could react when I saw the reflection of the fireworks, and on his chest, a crossbow bolt was shining with cold light!
