27. It is shameful to be alone

February 4, 2008, the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month.

At the beginning of spring, it rained.

Like silk, it is light and thin, and you can't hear the sound of the murmur, nor can you feel the dripping of the rain, as if it were a kind of wet smoke, without shape and without sound, gently moistening the earth and people's hearts.

The corridor is a little dark, the cigarette butts are bright and extinguished, and the faint smell of tobacco sets off some quiet and deep meaning.

"The sky is blue and waiting for the smoke and rain and I am waiting for you, the smoke rises, thousands of miles across the river, and the book at the bottom of the bottle is humming and humming......"

The fine rain fell quietly like flying flotsam and snowflakes, falling on Li Qing's hair, face and clothes, like small rhinestones all over his body.

He hummed softly, and when he forgot the lyrics, he could only hum.

Take out the key and insert the key.

"Coming back?" A voice suddenly sounded from behind him, startling Li Qing.

"Sister?" Li Qing recognized the person from the unique timbre, "Why are you here?" ”

Zhou Xun glanced at his wet hair and said with a smile: "Where did you go?" Go first and wipe it, for the New Year, you will catch a cold again. ”

"It's raining, I'm thinking about going to see the rainbow."

Li Qing opened the door, welcomed Zhou Xun in, wiped his hair with a towel, and asked, "Why didn't you call me when you came over?" Have you waited a long time? ”

"It didn't take long." Zhou Xun casually looked at Li Qing's room, opened the refrigerator door and looked at it, and asked, "Did Hong see it?" ”

"Nope." Li Qing smiled, "I'm also stupid, I waited for a long time to think, there is no sun in the sky, where is the rainbow?" ”

Zhou Xun walked up to him, touched his soaked coat, and reached out to help him take it off: "How long have you waited?" ”

"It didn't take long."

"That's been a long time. Why did you think of going to see the rainbow? ”

"Hahaha......" Li Qing suddenly laughed heartily, "It's completely poetic faith!" ”

Zhou Xun imagined the picture of Li Qingyu waiting for the rainbow, was stunned for a while, reached out and rubbed his hair: "Call me next time!" ”

"Okay."

"Go take a shower, change your clothes, and come home with me."

"Huh?" Li Qing was stunned, the smile on his face became lighter and lighter, and he excused himself, "No, it's good to stay by yourself, and you are comfortable." Besides, I have cats. ”

"Neurotic! Comfortable ghost! Zhou Xun didn't have a good airway, "The refrigerators are empty, what are you eating?" Have you done the New Year's goods? Did you buy clothes? Didn't you buy the Spring Festival couplets? ”

"Huh? Spring Festival couplets! Li Qing was stunned when he heard this, grabbed his hair, and smiled embarrassedly, "I forgot." ”

"Listen to me, hurry up and pack up, I've already asked people to book a ticket. You will go back to your hometown with me this year, and I will take you to meet your parents. ”

"I really don't want to. Next time, next time. ”

"Why are you screwed more than me?"

Li Qing just laughed and didn't speak.

"Forget it, it's up to you." Zhou Xun was a little helpless, "You hurry up and clean up, and my sister will take you to do New Year's goods." ”

"Right now, I'll just change my clothes."

…………

The two of them walked together for a long time, and the car couldn't be jammed before returning home.

Looking at the full refrigerator, Zhou Xun slapped his face with a sense of accomplishment, turned to look at Li Qing, who was wrapping dumplings, and asked, "Do you still make dumplings?" ”

Li Qing smiled: "What should you ask me?" ”

Zhou Xun turned on the TV casually, didn't look at it, let the voice sound, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the kitchen: "I'll help you." ”

"You also make dumplings?"

"I won't."

"......" Li Qingpo was a little speechless, "No, you can rest, I'll be fine soon." ”

"You take yours, I take care of mine, you care about me?" Zhou Xun snorted and got started, "Hey, let me ask you, since you can cook, why do you still live like this?" ”

"Huh?" Li Qingshou paused and said with a smile, "Hey, lazy." When Xiao Tian'er was there, the two of them were a partner, she liked to eat my cooking, and every time I heard her praise my craftsmanship, I still had a sense of accomplishment. But when you're alone, how to eat is not to eat, just don't go hungry. ”

"Alas, you!" Zhou Xun sighed, "If you like it, chase it!" ”

"There's no hurry, it's still a long time."

"How did you develop this temperament? Slow and reasonable, aren't you really in a hurry? ”

"What's the hurry? I have a lifetime to go. ”

Zhou Xun stopped his hand and looked at Li Qing.

He lowered his eyes, held the dumpling skin in one hand, picked out some stuffing with the other hand, wrapped it gently, pinched the corners with his slender and white fingers, and a chubby ingots came out.

The action is not hurried or slow, but it is smooth, which is quite pleasing to the eye.

"Is that little girl so good?"

Li Qing looked up suspiciously: "What?" ”

"I said, why do you like her?"

"Huh?" Li Qing was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and finally shook his head, "If you like it, you like it!" ”

Zhou Xun was also stunned, thought about it and nodded: "It's the same." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and continued to make dumplings.

…………

"Ah, my teeth!" Li Qing covered his mouth, exhaled in pain, and spit out a coin, "What's the situation?" ”

"Hahaha...... Zhou Xun laughed heartily, "lucky coin!" You've been eaten, Kiyoko, you'll have good luck in the coming year! ”

"No, you can tell me if you wrap a coin!" Li Qing rubbed his cheeks, "What if I swallow it?" ”

"Huh? Do you swallow dumplings when you eat them? ”

“…… Not really. ”

"That's not it." Zhou Xun smiled, "Don't straddle your face, smile one, I will wrap a coin and you will eat it, how lucky!" ”

"......" Li Qing said speechlessly, "You don't eat the dumplings you make yourself, you definitely won't be able to eat them!" ”

"Anyway, the stuffing is the same, but it's a little ugly!"

"How can you be reasonable!"

The phone rang.

"Mom."

"Well, I'm eating."

"Dumplings! Chinese New Year! ”

"Huh? Girlfriend? Li Qing's eyes instantly fell on Zhou Xun, "You wait, I'll let her say a few words to you." ”

Li Qing covered the microphone, looked at Zhou Xun, and whispered: "My mother, I told her that I was celebrating the New Year with my girlfriend." Sister, you can help me say a few words, just say a New Year's greeting. ”

"Bring it." Zhou Xun reached out for his mobile phone.

Li Qing handed it over.

"Happy New Year, Auntie!"

"Yes, I'm with Kiyoko. Uh-huh......"

“……”

…………

"You really don't want to go home with me?"

Zhou Xun was wearing a beige windbreaker and a scarf, standing in front of Li Qing, making her more and more petite.

Li Qing looked at the sky, the rain stopped, and there was light snow in the sky again.

He handed over the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, carried another bag to her back, and said with a smile: "No, next time." Happy New Year, sister! ”

"Happy New Year!" Zhou Xun responded and complained, "What do you have in this bag?" So heavy? ”

"Oh, some dumplings, and a small gift I prepared for my uncle and aunt."

"Gifts? No mine? ”

"Yes, it's all in the bag, you go back and see for yourself."

"Okay!" Zhou Xun raised his hand and twisted his face, feeling soft and warm, and the other hand also stretched out, holding Li Qing's face with both hands to warm his hands, and then said, "It's okay, you go upstairs." ”

"I'll wait with you for a while. How long will it take for you to give Brother Ming a call and ask? ”

"It's alright, it should be almost there." Zhou Xun stomped his feet, "I knew we wouldn't come down so early." ”

As he spoke, a whistle sounded in his ears.

"Ah, here it is." Zhou Xun looked at Li Qing, "I'm leaving!" ”

"Goodbye! Bon voyage. ”

"Hmm." Zhou Xun got into the car and saw that Li Qing was still standing in place, shouting at him with his palms in the shape of a trumpet, "Go back!" ”

"Good!" Li Qing waved at her, and when he saw that the car had started, he turned around and prepared to go upstairs.

"Hey, Happy New Year!"

Zhou Xun's voice sounded behind him again.

Li Qing turned around with a smile: "The New Year is ...... soon"

The car has drifted away.

Li Qing stood there, stunned for a while, the snowflakes floated on his face, and in an instant melted into cold and cold water droplets, he touched his face, and softly finished the unfinished words: "Le ......"
