Chapter 5: Early Spring (3)

Chinese New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year's Eve.

"Let's go, Shi An, set off fireworks!"

"In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu. Thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one. ”

Xie Changning went to school early and had a good memory, and the teacher taught them a few poems, so she memorized them word for word.

She recited the verses aloud as she lit the fireworks in her hand.

The fireworks exploded in the air with a "whoosh" sound, and the sky burst into brilliant fireworks. The fiery red flames rose and fell, Shi An looked at the sky without focus, the fireworks reflected in his gray eyes, and the world seemed to have a temperature.

Xie Changning squeezed Shi An's hand, "Do you want to watch fireworks?" ”

"I ...... Unseen. ”

"I know." Xie Changning smiled mysteriously, "There is another way. ”

Xie Changning dismantled the fireworks, poured out all the gunpowder inside, and built a small pile on the snow.

She struck a match and lit the gunpowder pile, and the various chemical elements inside immediately reacted, bursting out of various colors of fireworks in place.

Xie Changning took Shi An's hand and shook it in front of the fireworks. The heat penetrated through the flames, soaking into two pairs of hands that were frozen in the snow.

The warmth is in the thread, turned into honey, and melted into the heart.

The fireworks were shining in front of him, and Shi An seemed to really see the brilliant point of light, illuminating his dark world at once.

"Shi An, if you set off fireworks, you will be able to defeat the evil spirits, and all the bad luck on your body will be gone! From now on, your life will definitely go smoothly and your wishes will come true! ”

"Make a wish in front of the fireworks! As far as our agreement is concerned, we can't talk in the future! ”

He looked up at her, and beyond the thick barrier of darkness, he seemed to vaguely see her bright smile.

"Okay."

On Chinese New Year's Eve that year, on the eve of the New Year, Xie Changning and Shi An made each other's most pious wishes together in front of the brilliant fireworks, with the starry sky as evidence.

A week later.

"Shi An! Good time! ”

Xie Changning was carrying a birdcage with a small gray-brown inside.

"Oh, it's Changning."

Shi An's grandmother walked out and was not surprised when she saw Xie Changning.

"Grandma Yang, where's Shi An?"

"Shi An has already left, and he is back in the city with his parents and sisters."

Xie Changning was suddenly lost, and muttered, "Are you already gone......

"It's okay, you can play together again next year, Shi An's parents and sister like you very much, saying that you are a good boy!"

Grandma Yang handed her a red envelope, with a kind smile on her face: "Come to Changning, take it." Thanks to you for playing with Shi An these days, the kid has been ...... since that incident In the past two days, his smile has obviously been more than before, thank you Changning. ”

Xie Changning looked at the big red envelope in his hand, and said a little overwhelmed: "No need, no need Grandma Yang, I also like Shi An, oops, it should be!"

Pushing back and forth, it still couldn't resist Grandma Yang, so Xie Changning had to accept it.

When he went back on the way, Xie Changning thought about it and opened the cage door.

The little fluttered their wings and stood on a branch of a tree and tilted their heads to look at her.

"You go, you're free. From now on, you can go wherever you want, and you can fly with high mountains and wide waters. ”

That winter, everything seemed to be fine, and in the fireworks and white fog of the new year, the evil was gone, and everything was renewed.

That night, Xie Changning's wish was that his family would be healthy, happy and safe;

I hope that I will make progress in my studies and succeed in my studies;

In the end, I hope that Shi An's eyes will get better soon, and I hope that he will have a smooth and prosperous life in the future.

She asked Shi An what wish he had made, but Shi An mysteriously refused to tell her, saying that it would not work.

"When we see you again in the future, you have fulfilled your wish, and I will tell you."

"What......"
