Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

The night of New Year's Eve has different meanings for everyone. new

For the merchants and shop owners on Wenzhong Road, this may be the day with the highest turnover in the year. The New Year is not as important as making money. The New Year is ushering in the delivery and watching the piled goods continue to be sold.

For those doctors, policemen, and firefighters on duty, this may be the most mixed day. They guard a phone and a hospital bed for the whole year.

For community security guards, there is nothing special about this day. A mobile phone, a yellowed TV, and a bowl of fried cakes are the New Year.

There are as many types of years as there are people.

For people like Zhou Rui, they are already the lucky ones among countless people to be able to put aside their work and studies for the time being, return to their hometown, and go to the lantern festival with their families.

Zhou Rui was keenly aware that after Li Wenqian's inexplicable hug, she kept her head down most of the time.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Zhou Rui rolled his eyes.

you won't be

"Want to use the bathroom?"

Li Wenqian glared at Zhou Rui in shame, her beautiful eyes moist and clear: "It's nothing, I just feel that the scale of this year's lantern festival is a bit small."

Zhou Rui spread his hands: "Maybe Uncle Han's successor didn't take it seriously."

This possibility cannot be ruled out. After all, Zijin Group launched "Death Rattle: Who Will Come with Me" and took away many people.

When passing by a small stall, Li Wenqian's attention was attracted by the small jewelry with words engraved on it. new

The gold-red wooden blocks the size of peanuts are engraved with various Chinese characters. They can be made into bracelets or pendants.

Li Wenqian picked one up and looked at it. Not to mention how exquisite the workmanship was, but the red color looked pretty good under the light, making it feel particularly festive.

"Zhou Rui, shall we buy this?"

Soon Li Wenqian found the two wooden blocks Li and Zhou. After all, they were both common surnames. She thought it was over, but Li Wenqian said she wanted to find the full name.

Zhou Rui looked at five or six large boxes, filled with densely packed small squares. It felt like there were thousands of them, and he thought, are you sure?

"Let's make them into bracelets. One can only be hung around the neck. It's too silly."

Zhou Rui: I think picking squares is more silly.

But Zhou Rui was grumbling in his heart, but his actions were honest. He curled his lips and started rummaging directly.

Li Wenqian laughed, the two of them had been looking for it for a long time

It took so long that Yao Peili and the others were far away, so long that they almost forgot that this was a lantern festival.

Zhou Rui asked the boss: What are the words for 伱?

The boss said that he didn't know. If he found it, he would have it. If he didn't find it, he wouldn't have it.

In the end, I almost looked through it all, but still only found the words "文" and "Qian", and I couldn't find the word "Rui" for Zhou Rui.

So Li Wenqian threaded three small pieces of wood through a rope and made a bracelet, while Zhou Rui could only use the word "zhou" to make a pendant. new

A small wooden block costs 5 yuan, and the rope comes as a gift, totaling 20 yuan.

It feels stupid to hang a piece of wood with the character "zhou" around your neck. It's like wearing a work badge.

Zhou Rui took it off immediately after tonight.

Unexpectedly, after taking only two steps, Li Wenqian suddenly said: "If you don't like it, give it to me."

"What are you doing here?"

"I have three bracelets that feel asymmetrical and a little loose, but four bracelets are just right."

Zhou Rui took off the pendant nonchalantly and handed it to Li Wenqian, then said, "I'm going to buy two sausages."

Li Wenqian followed Zhou Rui, took off the small piece of wood from the pendant, and put it on her bracelet.

Her hands are very skillful and she got it done in just a few strokes.

The words on the bracelet changed to "Zhou Li Wenqian".

Li Wenqian's eyes turned into crescent moons when she smiled.

Zhou Rui's voice came from not far away: "Do you want it spicy?"

Li Wenqian put on the bracelet and chased after her: "Don't be spicy."

The two families stayed at the temple fair until 11 o'clock in the evening. Then, at the invitation of Zhou Rui and Yao Peili, Li Wenqian and Li Huihua came to No. 277 Tianhe Road to work on the last project of the day.

light fireworks.

There was no one in the whole building, and the yard downstairs was casually decorated. First, there were a bunch of firecrackers, covered with red paper, then some small things like flowers, and the last highlight was the fireworks bombs.

Zhou Rui and Zhou Weigang prepared one each. The two big boxes were almost different. After a final discussion, they decided to light them together to see which one was taller and which one looked better.

The three women stood at the entrance of the corridor and covered their ears. Zhou Rui and Zhou Weigang were holding their watches on both sides of the yard.

At 00:00, the two of them lit up the twister at the same time.

Beads of light were shot into the sky, and then exploded into brilliant fire.

A perfect ending to the New Year's Eve.

In the final result of the competition, Zhou Weigang's was higher and Zhou Rui's was more durable, so it was a tie.

——————————————

Although he had thought about driving back when he drove back, when the day came, Zhou Rui still felt that he was in trouble.

Since the project team had to start work early, Zhou Rui's winter vacation ended earlier than others, and he would start his return trip on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. However, Li Wenqian and the others still had more than ten days to play.

So Zhou Rui had to drive back alone.

The family parted ways downstairs. Yao Peili and Zhou Weigang drove to Shenzhen, then took a plane to Hainan to start their "wedding trip", while Zhou Rui set off back to Shanghai.

Nothing happened along the way. The navigation distance was 1. I rested for one night in Fuzhou and arrived in Shanghai the next night.

Over and over again, the mileage of the new car directly exceeded 3,000 kilometers, so Zhou Rui simply stopped at the 4S store to do the down payment.

Returning to Jiangwan Hanlin, he opened the window to let out the smell, and Zhou Rui took a good rest. Tomorrow, on the eighth day of the lunar month, is when the project team will start working.

All the instruments and personnel have been prepared. The goal this time is to reproduce the "four-image" structural coating and accumulate experience for subsequent large-scale preparation.

Mou Lao predicts that "reappearance" will take half a year to two years, and mature preparation is even more difficult to say.

When he got up in the morning, Zhou Rui put on his hand-knitted scarf again and walked out of Jiangwan Hanlin. For students, the eighth day of the Lunar New Year was still on holiday, so the Wuxingchang University District was a bit desolate.

Most of the businesses on University Road were empty, and the school cafeteria was not open. Zhou Rui walked until he was near Wanda before he found a place to have breakfast.

Under the second floor of the materials, Zhou Rui saw the tall and cold figure again.

Han Ziyin was also wearing a windbreaker with a bright red scarf hanging around her neck.

The outfit is exactly the same as Zhou Rui's.

Zhou Rui asked curiously: "Knitted another one?"

Han Ziyin took off the warm scarf from her neck and exchanged it with Zhou Rui's: "Sure enough, I still feel that the last one was not knitted well, so I tried it again during the winter vacation."

Zhou Rui felt the warmth of the new scarf.

I touched it with my fingertips and found that although it still had the rough feel of a hand-knitted scarf, the stitches were much finer and smoother.

Han Ziyin must have spent a lot of time

While stunned, Han Ziyin had already taken two steps and waved to Zhou Rui: "Let's go, my great scientist."

Zhou Rui smiled slightly: "Okay, my little assistant."
