Chapter 42: She celebrates the New Year alone
It's the Spring Festival of another year, on Chinese New Year's Eve, every household sticks up to the new union, and the sound of firecrackers is heard from time to time in the streets and alleys. People were dressed in new clothes, smiling and beaming.
This is the traditional festival of our country, but also the most festive festival, in one day everyone will go home and reunite with their relatives, eat the New Year's dinner together, keep the New Year together, and welcome the arrival of the New Year together.
He Xiyan walked on the streets along the river, which is the largest food street in Shenzhen, where you can eat all kinds of food, whether it is the eight major cuisines of our country or the cuisines of various countries, there are everything.
At 10 o'clock in the evening, it is very popular here, many families have reserved seats here, eating the reunion dinner, and the most popular is the hot pot restaurant, almost every one of them is full.
There will also be a fireworks display along the river today. There will be fireworks for an hour and a half. So there are a lot of people gathered on the riverside, but everyone is coming together as a family.
It's just that she's alone.
The Shenzhen market is different from the night city, this is the south, and the temperature here is as high as 10 degrees even in winter, so people like to come out to activities, unlike in the night city, it is estimated that it is snowing heavily at the moment, below zero.
He Xiyan took a camera to take pictures of the scenery here, and also took pictures of smiling faces.
She saw that many people came out of a family, a family of three, a family of five, and a family of seven. They love each other and seem very happy.
She was the only one.
A little girl suddenly stood in front of her, only three or four years old, wearing a small pink padded jacket and combing two small braids.
"Auntie, can you take a picture for us?" The little girl raised her little pink face, which was very cute red, and there were several adults standing not far from her, parents and grandparents with children, and the whole family was here.
He Xiyan seemed to be stimulated, her stomach was sour, because of envy.
"Okay!" She smiled at the little girl, and walked over to the family. They handed her a fruit phone and asked her to take a family photo for them.
And she likes design, her photography skills are also very good, and the child's mother is very satisfied after taking several photos in a row.
"Thank you!" The family politely thanked her, and she just nodded, and the corners of her mouth were also smiling, but the bitterness in her smile could not be dissolved.
Baby, are you a boy or a girl?
She stroked her lower abdomen, and there was only that one expectation in her heart.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the fireworks show started on time, and the roar of fireworks began to be heard on the other side of the river.
Fireworks soar into the sky. Slowly stretched out in the air, accompanied by the exclamations of people, countless red, yellow, and green flowers were formed, dazzling and beautiful. This is a fireworks show with the theme of a hundred flowers to welcome spring, and the night sky is full of various colors of fire trees and silver flowers, which are strange and colorful.
After the fireworks show, there were river lanterns floating down the river surface without waves, and each small river lantern contained a family's beautiful hopes and expectations, she also bought one and wrote two words of blessing on the lamp.
She sat on the stone steps by the river, watching the river lanterns flow slowly, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing, sometimes in a daze.
As the night deepened, the crowd around her slowly dispersed, and finally she was left alone under the street lamp.
"Yan Yan ......"
In another distant city, a man sat up suddenly, his face a terrible white, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead from time to time.
