Chapter 36: Chinese New Year

After Luo Zhen finished playing, he looked at the man next to him, met his gaze, and smiled lightly.

The eyes of the two of them looking at each other and smiling were warm and intoxicating.

"What do you think of what I'm talking about?" Luo Zhen asked.

"Excellent, of course." Feng Ya smiled, "But I don't know about this Western thing, I just think the sound of your playing is very beautiful." ”

"That's enough." Luo Zhen nodded lightly.

Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, the two sit side by side, the window is the gentle moonlight, everything outside is covered with a hazy light veil.

The sound of firecrackers could still be heard in the distance, but it seemed to be far away from them.

"Really." When Luo Zhen looked out the window in a daze, the man next to her suddenly called her.

The woman turned around and smiled at him.

"What's wrong?"

I saw that the man took out a thing from his arms like a trick and put it in front of Luo Zhen.

Luo Zhen looked at the thing in front of him with his eyes open, and then looked at Feng Ya's face, a little puzzled.

That thing is a jade lotus petal hairpin, which is not gorgeous, but it is better because of the unique pattern, and the jade color is not satisfactory.

"Yours."

Luo Zhen was surprised, took the hairpin, and put it in his hand and couldn't put it down.

Feng Ya stared at her intently.

"Many girls don't wear it anymore, but I think you'll like it, so I bought it when I stopped by the market that day, thinking I'd give it to you tonight."

"Do you like it?"

Luo Zhenxi said: "I like it." ”

Feng Ya smiled slightly, reached out and took the hosta from Luo Zhen's hand, and then inserted it into the woman's sideburns.

The hosta is very beautiful, beautiful and elegant.

Feng Ya stared at her intently, her expression focused.

Luo Zhen was a little embarrassed by him.

Feng Ya smiled slightly and said, "Aren't you going to show me a book?" Where is it? ”

Luo Zhen suddenly remembered his original intention for asking him to come.

She stood up and went to the yellow rosewood bookcase in the room, and saw the book.

The title of the book is "Three Hundred Yuan Songs", which is a new book that has just been published, and the author is an unknown old gentleman.

She took the book and showed it to Feng Ya.

The two of them sat at a table in the room, and there was a lampshade on the table, and the lampshade was covered with a plum blossom pattern of the shadow veil, the lamp shadow was faint and not dazzling.

They sat side by side in their chairs and spread out the book on the table.

The man chuckled softly, "So that's it." ”

Luo Zhen's eyes lit up and he smiled: "It's the best thing to ask you about this book, right?" ”

Feng Ya nodded, and said matter-of-factly: "Yes, you should ask me." ”

Luo Zhen couldn't help but laughed twice.

He flipped through a few pages, and then said to her, "Although it is my old job, there are many things in it that I don't know. I'm just going to know those cards, don't think so badly. ”

Luo Zhen nodded and took it from his hand: "Then why don't you tell me what you know?" ”

Feng Ya couldn't help but smile lightly when she saw her expression of bent desire for advice, and then nodded to her.

Feng Ya's voice was gentle and beautiful, patiently explaining the stories behind these words to Luo Zhen, Luo Zhen was attentive and silent on the side, listening with great interest.

After a while, Yayu suddenly walked in and said to Luo Zhen: "Miss, the commander asked you to go over and keep the New Year with him." ”

Luo Zhen was a little surprised, she didn't know that there was still a tradition of keeping the New Year.

Standing up from the table and straightening the corners of her clothes, she said to Yayu, "Let's go." ”

looked back at Feng Ya, but found that he was standing still and not moving.

Luo Zhen asked him curiously, "Why don't you leave." ”

Feng Ya smiled slightly: "I won't go." ”

Luo Zhen was puzzled: "Why?" ”

Feng Ya looked at her, her eyes were deep: "After all, I am not from your family, so I don't want to disturb you." "He's flattered to be able to eat with them.

Thinking of Luo Fuzhou's unkind expression, he laughed.

"Okay then." Luo Zhen nodded, turned back to Yayu and said, "Send Mr. Feng Ya to the guest room where he lives." ”

Ayu nodded.

Luo Zhen glanced back at him and said to him, "I'm leaving, Happy New Year." ”

Feng Ya also replied: "Happy New Year." ”

Luo Fuzhou stood in front of the window, heard the footsteps, turned his head to look at Luo Zhen, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Really."

"Father."

Luo Fuzhou looked behind her and saw that the kid didn't follow, and he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the kid was still acquainted.

Luo Zhen walked over and stood beside him.

Luo Fuzhou's room is on the second floor, and you can see the lively fire outside by the window, and in addition to firecrackers in the distance, there seem to be fireworks.

"This year is the first Chinese New Year's Eve that our father and daughter have ever spent."

Luo Zhen nodded.

Luo Fuzhou sighed lightly and said, "How did you spend this time in the past?" ”

Luo Zhen smiled lightly: "Didn't I tell you in the letter?" You told me to eat dumplings, so I bought dumplings in advance in Chinatown and cooked them on Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

Luo Fuzhou said with a smile: "Eating dumplings is a must, I just called the back kitchen to get ready, and we can eat them in a while." ”

Luo Zhen nodded.

"Zhen'er, you've been here in Peking for a while, how are you doing here? What do you think? Luo Fuzhou asked softly.

"I think it's good." Luo Zhen smiled.

"That's good. I'm afraid you're not used to it here. ”

Luo Zhen shook his head.

Luo Fuzhou suddenly spoke: "What do you think of Feng Ya?" ”

Luo Zhen suddenly heard her father ask, and she was a little uncertain, she glanced at him cautiously, and then said, "He's fine, what's wrong?" ”

Luo Fuzhou looked at her face and didn't say anything.

He is in a high position, and he looks at some people naturally carefully, he has not seen Feng Ya a few times, but every time he sees him, he always feels that this person's gaze is slightly evasive, and it seems that he is a person with great ideas in his heart, such a person......

He looked at Luo Zhen's eyes, and said in his heart: Let's observe and observe, after all, he is the person he really likes.

Luo Fuzhou sighed lightly and said to Luo Zhen: "You know that I am not so interested in life experience, but I always hope that you can find someone who can take care of you and protect you, so I didn't expect you to choose him." But I won't object to you either, because I promised your mother that I would let you choose someone you like, but what I was afraid of was that he was too weak to protect you. ”

Luo Zhen shook his head, "I don't need anyone else to protect me. ”

Luo Fuzhou sighed, "In such a troubled world, I can't say what will happen." ”

"That's it, if that happens, I'll send you to Europe."

Luo Zhen felt his father's worry and couldn't help but gently hold his hand.

"I only have you and your mother in my life, and I am not lonely, and when I go to see your mother, you must live well to make me and her feel at ease."

Luo Zhen's eyes were dyed with some hazy meaning.

Luo Fuzhou said: "You can't cry today, I shouldn't have said this." ”

Luo Zhen shook his head vigorously, sniffed, and smiled at him.

"If you're doing well, I'll be at ease."

The two father and daughter sat in front of the window like this, and it was not until the early hours of the morning that Luo Fuzhou told Luo Zhen to go back to sleep.

Before leaving, he gave her a gold bracelet and said, "When you were young, I couldn't accompany you well, and I could only go to Europe to see you every once in a while, and now in the blink of an eye, you have grown into a big girl." ”

Luo Zhen gently stroked the gold bracelet in his hand and smiled slightly.

"This gold bracelet is usually worn by the father when the child is born, I forgot about it, so I will make it up for you now."

Luo Fuzhou said: "There is no wish next to my father, you are the only one I miss, if you are not doing well, I dare not go to see your mother under Jiuquan, so Zhen'er, some happiness must be grasped." ”

Luo Zhen nodded vigorously.

"However, there are some people you have to see clearly, I don't want you to be hurt."

Luo Fuzhou said solemnly.

"I see, father, I will protect myself and I won't let you worry."

"Okay, you can go and rest, I should go and rest too, I'm too old now, I can't stay up too late. The bones of the body are not so tough anymore. ”

Seeing Luo Zhen's somewhat worried gaze, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, but your father can still hold on for a few more decades." ”

Luo Zhen smiled and hugged Luo Fuzhou.

A father's embrace is always warm.

"Father, we all have to be well, so that Mother can feel at ease."

Luo Fuzhou nodded and looked at Luo Zhen in his arms.

"Alright, you go back and rest." Luo Fu Zhoudao.

"Happy New Year, Father." Thinking of Feng Ya's words, she said to him.

Luo Fuzhou also smiled lightly: "Happy New Year." ”

The next day, Luo Zhen was awakened by the loud sound of firecrackers.

She woke up from her dream and felt that she had dreamed of many things.

She looked out the window in a daze, only to feel that the sound of the firecrackers was louder than last night's, and it could actually wake her up.

The new year has arrived.

She got up and washed up, then changed into the festive red dress that her father had prepared for her, sat down in front of the dressing mirror and dressed up a little, and then finally walked out of the room.

Her small courtyard was quiet, Yayu walked in, and when she woke up, she was very surprised: "Miss, why did you get up so early?" ”

Luo Zhen smiled and nodded: "I was awakened by the sound of firecrackers, Yayu, Happy New Year!" ”

Yayu also smiled and said, "Miss, Happy New Year." I just came from the kitchen, I see they have prepared the dumplings, would you like to eat some first? ”

Luo Zhen shook his head: "Father may not have gotten up yet, I'd better eat with him." Yayu, are you hungry or not, you go eat first. ”

Ayu shook her head, "I've already used some snacks, so I'm not hungry now." ”

"By the way, Miss, you wait, I'll go and prepare some sugar water for you."

Luo Zhen looked at her back inexplicably, not knowing what she was going to do.

Yayu brought the sugar water and smiled at Luo Zhen: "In the new year, you will be blessed!" Miss, drink this glass of sugar water. ”

Luo Zhen thought that it was custom, so he drank the water.
