Wear the book and be reborn as a group favorite for 50 people

Tang Zhanbo, who had been waiting outside anxiously for a long time, heard Tang Xin's cry and immediately responded: "Hey, I got it, I'm in."

Zhan Bo opened the door and came in. The first thing he saw was Chen Xi, whose eyes were swollen from crying. He felt really distressed.

"Chen Xi, are you feeling better?" Zhan Bo asked carefully.

Seeing Zhanbo, Chen Xi felt like crying again, but she tried to hold it back. She was an adult and could no longer worry those who cared about her. Besides, she cried happily just now and was really tired now.

"Brother Zhan Bo, I'm fine. I'm much better after crying." Chen Xi's voice was still choked with sobs.

"Well, don't hold it in if you feel sad. Cry and let it out and it will make you feel better." Zhan Bo comforted.

Seeing them like this, Tang Xin stood up consciously, leaving some space for them to be alone.

"You two chat for a while first. I'll boil some hot water. Chen Xi, you can wash your face later. Your eyes are swollen from crying, so you need to apply them." As she spoke, Tang Xin picked up the thermos bottle that still had more than half a pot of water left in the room. go out.

Zhan Bo looked at Tang Xin approvingly, this sister was very discerning.

Tang Xin took the thermos to the kitchen. Since she said she couldn't just boil water, she quickly lit a fire and boiled water. Sister Zheng walked out quickly when she heard the sound.

"Sugar baby, what are you doing?"

"I'll boil some hot water for Chen Xi to put on her eyes." Tang Xin turned around.

"Is there no hot water in your house? Let me heat it. You go in and stay." Sister Zheng said and was about to come over to help.

"No, Sister Zheng, you still have to stretch out your hand to do something as simple as boiling water. I can do it myself. You can go and rest quickly." Tang Xin rejected Sister Zheng's kindness and advised her to go back to the house to rest.

Although Sister Zheng didn't help, she didn't go back to the house to rest. Instead, she started working in the kitchen to see what to prepare for lunch.

"Tangbao, Chen Xi is having dinner at home today at noon. What would you like to cook? There are not many dishes at home. I will go to the vegetable market in a while."

Tang Xin stood up, walked to Sister Zheng, and looked at the vegetable basket, "Chen Xi probably doesn't have much appetite now, so let's make something light. By the way, doesn't she always like to eat cabbage vermicelli stew? Let's make a cabbage vermicelli stew." "

It's winter now. Although there are green vegetables, there are too few. The main ones are radishes, cabbage, and potatoes.

"Okay, then I'll stir-fry two more vegetables, see what's in the market later, and mix some cold dishes? There won't be any meat for lunch today." Sister Zheng thought for a while and said.

"Okay, just look at the arrangements." Tang Xin nodded.

At this time, Tang's mother walked in. She also came to see what was being prepared for lunch today.

Sister Zheng told Ma Tang about her plans for lunch today, and Ma Tang nodded in agreement, "It should be lighter. After all, Chen Xi's elders just passed away. In the past, they had to be vegetarian for a while."

Lunch was decided, and Tang Ma and Sister Zheng went out to clean up. They decided to go to the market together and buy some food.

Tang Xin waited in the kitchen for a while, and when the water was boiling, she filled up the kettles in other rooms, and then went back with the kettle in her own room.

By the time Tang Xin entered the room again, Chen Xi's mood had completely stabilized. Except for his eyes, which were still a little red and swollen, he was in good condition.

"Brother, go get some cold water and let Chen Xi wash his face."

Tang Xin put the hot water bottle on the table and told Zhan Bo. Zhan Bo immediately stood up to respond and then went out with the washbasin.

"Are you feeling better?" Tang Xin walked to Chen Xi and sat down, holding her hand and asking.

"Well, much better, thank you Tang Xin." Chen Xi nodded and rested his head on Tang Xin's shoulder, "It's great to have you."

Tang Xin patted Chen Xi's hand, "It's okay, I'll always be there."

"Yeah." Chen Xi hummed with a thick nasal voice. Tang Xin's words made her want to cry again.

Zhan Bo came back with cold water, then poured some hot water from the thermos into it, tested the water temperature, and said to Chen Xi, "Chen Xi, the water is ready. Come and test the water temperature and wash your face."

"Okay." Chen Xi stood up after hearing this, went to the washbasin stand, tested the water temperature, and then washed his face.

Tang Xin brought Chen Xi a new towel, poured some hot water into the basin, and asked Chen Xi to apply the hot towel on his eyes to reduce swelling.

Chen Xi listened to Tang Xin's words and applied hot compress to his eyes. As expected, he felt much better. Then Tang Xin took out the facial cream and asked Chen Xi to apply it on his face.

"Put on some face cream. The weather is too dry now, otherwise your face will get chapped."

Chen Xi nodded and touched the cream that Tang Xin dug out with his hand. After washing his face and applying heat, he felt much more energetic.

"I'm much better. Don't worry. You've all experienced it once. Besides, I've grown up and can bear it."

Chen Xi looked at the two people in front of him who cared about him, regained his composure, and then comforted them in turn.

Seeing Chen Xi's look, Tang Xin knew that Chen Xi had really accepted it, and felt more relieved. Tang Xin knew that there were some things that others couldn't help with, and Chen Xi needed to figure them out on his own.

So they changed the topic and talked about other things. The three of them chatted in Tang Xin's room all morning. During this time, Tang's father also sent fruit back to the three of them, which made Chen Xi feel grateful again. The Tang family expressed their gratitude to I'm really good at it.

Chen Xi stayed at Tang Xin's house for a day and asked Zhan Bo to send him back in the afternoon. He had to go to school tomorrow and the day would continue.

After Chen Xi left, Tang Xin took out the letter recently sent by Jiang Wenbai. It had been more than a month since Jiang Wenbai left. During this period, they had written letters twice. The weather in the north was much colder than in Beijing. After returning, Jiang Wenbai put The vest was put on, and he said in the letter that it was very warm and that he would think of Tang Xin every day when he wore the vest.

Tang Xin then hurriedly knitted another one for him. It was just sent away a few days ago, along with some snacks from Beijing and antifreeze hand cream from Shengshi Fanghua, although the army also sent them , but after all, the quantity was limited, so Tang Xin decided to prepare more for Jiang Wenbai.

After thinking about it, Tang Xin took out a pen and paper again and started writing a letter to Jiang Wenbo. This had been the case for more than a year. Tang Xin would write down whatever she thought of, and then mail it to Jiang Wenbo next time when she replied. Half of my letters were in a thick stack, but I envied Jiang Wenbai's comrades.

Also sent with the letter was a pendant carefully prepared by Tang Xin, a necklace with a pocket watch on it. When opened, there was a small mirror on one side and a photo of Tang Xin on the other. Tang Xin asked Jiang Wenbai, if it is convenient Take this with you, she also has the same one, the difference is that the photo inside is of Jiang Wenbai.

After returning this time, Jiang Wenbo put a photo of him and Tang Xinxin in his notebook, and occasionally let his comrades see it. Everyone teased that this was his partner. This time Jiang Wenbo did not deny it, but admitted it generously.

My comrades all envy me for having a beautiful girlfriend, Jiang Wenbai said in the letter, and Tang Xin could feel Jiang Wenbai's joy when he heard this. It's a pity that we didn't see the usually mature and steady Jiang Wenbai in this arrogant scene.

Time moved forward leisurely, and in a blink of an eye it was New Year's Day, 1965. Another year had passed, and a new year had arrived.
