Old Man Hu was a soldier when he was young, and there was a righteous majesty between his eyebrows, he sat in the position of the master of the dinner table, looked at Gu Bai, and said, "Do you have any plans to return to China this time?"

"Oh, grandpa, can you let Gu Bai eat well," Before Gu Bai could speak, Hu Jiajia began to be coquettish, and turned to grandma, saying, "Grandma, you don't talk about grandpa, you always talk about this at the dinner table, and everyone has no appetite." ”

Old Mrs. Hu smiled and helped Gu Bai add a bowl of fish soup, while blaming the old man: "You, it's uncomfortable if you don't teach people for a day, right?"

Gu Bai took the bowl of fish soup and said, "Thank you, grandma." Then he said to Mr. Hu: "I don't have any plans for the time being, but I plan to go to Beijing later, and before I came back, my father specially asked me to come to visit my grandparents, saying that I hadn't seen him for many years and missed him very much." ”

Old man Hu said: "Since your grandfather left, our two families have indeed not seen each other for many years, are your parents okay in the United States?"

"Very good, now the company has been handed over to the eldest brother to take care of, the sister-in-law assists the eldest brother, and my parents travel all day long. Gu Bai said with a smile.

"This couple played when they were young, and this child has grown up, and it is not comfortable. Mrs. Hu said.

Hu Jiajia said on the side: "I envy the state of my uncle and aunt, and I hope that when I reach middle age, I will also have a wife who will never abandon me, accompany me to travel in the mountains and rivers, and see the mountains and rivers of the motherland." He gestured as he spoke. made Grandpa Hu laugh: "You teach a child to dance all day long, and you run around the rest of the time, and you haven't run enough?"

"The world is so big, it's not enough in one lifetime. ”

"Ghost girl, you know how to be poor. Grandma Hu laughed and scolded.

At the end of the meal, Grandma Hu tried her best to ask Gu Bai to stay, but Gu Bai politely refused: "I still don't bother Grandma, I have already let people clean up the previous house, just go over and move in." ”

"What's the trouble, why are you so weird kid?" Grandma Hu had a tough attitude: "Don't make grandma angry." ”

Gu Bai smiled helplessly and gave Hu Jiajia a look. Hu Jiajia actually wanted Gu Bai to stay, but when he saw Gu Bai like this, he had no choice but to persuade: "Grandma, Gu Bai still has his own things to do, it's really inconvenient to live here, besides, everyone else has come back, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to run away? I'll let him come to see you another day." ”

Grandpa Hu also helped on the side: "The two families are so close, how convenient it is to come and go, young people have their own affairs, let's not follow blindly mixing." ”

"I'm just fooling around. Grandma Hu glared back at Grandpa Hu, turned to Gu Bai and said, "Okay, then go and sit down with grandma when you have time, grandma will make you something to eat." ”

"Definitely, Grandma. Gu Bai responded while saying goodbye.

He Weiwei was lying on the bed in her room and looking at the book, turning the book into a loud noise, but she couldn't read it, her mother's voice next door kept ringing, teaching her father, the content was the same, it was nothing more than not caring about her daughter's major affairs all day long, not caring about the family, but the problem was that if her father said something, he would be scolded for doing too much for you all day long.

He Weiwei was upset, got up and shouted to her parents' bedroom, "I'm going out to take out the garbage." After going downstairs and strolling around the square near the community, the square was crowded with people, and there were square dancers everywhere, He Weiwei found a place, sat down, and thought: "I must move out, even if my mother opposes it this time, I have to move out." ”

At this time, a man sat on the chair next to him, He Weiwei glanced at him, the smell of smoke wafted over, He Weiwei rolled her eyes, the man was very sensitive, pinched the cigarette, and asked, "Is it unaccustomed to smelling, sorry." ”

He Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "It's okay, the main thing is that the family doesn't smoke, I don't mind, you can continue." ”

"Really?" the man laughed, "My grandfather, my father, and my eldest brother all smoke, and I can count this as a family inheritance." But he put away the cigarette in his hand.

He Weiwei suddenly felt very relaxed, she couldn't even see this man's face clearly, she felt very good in the blur, the lights in the distance were brilliant and lively, it was quiet but not lonely here, like a unique space in the downtown area, He Weiwei even had an urge to lay shop here.

Gu Bai said goodbye to the Hu family and drove the car aimlessly, the small city was no longer what it was when he left, it was renovated everywhere, and the familiar things of the old times seemed to slowly fade from his memory with the new building, he parked the car near the square, sat on this chair, and prepared to smoke a cigarette.

On the other side of the chair in the darkness sat a silent woman, perhaps the darkness covering her face, who unconsciously chatted with strangers.

He Weiwei smiled lightly: "This is not a good inheritance, history tells us to 'take the essence and remove the dross'." After finishing speaking, I felt that it was inappropriate, after all, Pingshui was not very familiar with each other.

Gu Bai laughed and said, "I'm afraid this 'dross' won't be able to go, and it's going to be fatal." ”

He Weiwei smiled, but did not speak.

Gu Bai said to himself: "I probably learned to smoke when I was in middle school, there were many boys who smoked at that time, and you are not a man if you don't smoke, I liked a girl at the time, and I was eager to prove myself, so I learned to smoke for the sake of a man, and guess what?"

"What's wrong?"

"The girl told me that she hated people who smoked and felt that they were pretentious and flowing, and I was not convinced and frustrated, but I have to admit that she was right, I was indeed pretentious when I smoked. ”

Whose middle school is not the same, He Weiwei was pulled up by Gu Bai with memories of when she went to school, at that time, there was not so much helplessness in reality, the only thing she was worried about was getting up early every morning to run and exercise, which made her very hated by snooze.

Although he didn't study in the same school, He Weiwei and Gu Bai communicated surprisingly smoothly, he hadn't talked nonsense with anyone for a long time, and he didn't even have a in his brain. But neither of them mentioned each other's names, nor did they plan to see each other's faces, maybe after seeing their real faces, some words could not be said so fluently.

On this cool night with the smell of barbecue, they hid behind the night and shared a corner of their world.

He Weiwei left the chair first, she gradually walked away without looking back, Gu Bai watched her figure from dark to bright to dark, until she couldn't see it for a long time, before she stood up, the people in the square began to pack up their things and prepare to go home, he passed through these scattered people, sat in his car, and suddenly had the desire to sleep, and wanted to take a bath, so he closed his eyes, fortunately, the town was very small, but in ten minutes, he completed his wish.
