her mountain, her sea

18. New Year's Eve

Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

The quilt that has not been exposed to the sun is heavy, and it is a little hard to breathe under the pressure, and there is a faint smell of damp.Chi Tang couldn't sleep, the curtains were half drawn, and she specially left some gaps so that she could see the snow outside.

The phone rang suddenly, and Chi Tang broadcasted a WeChat voice message from her father with just a quick touch, and a loud sentence "If you don't come back, don't come back" echoed clearly in the room.

Chi Tang didn't expect it to be so loud, so he immediately lowered the volume, but he had finished speaking a short sentence, and You Yu heard it too.

You Yu kept his eyes closed just now and didn't move. Chi Tang thought she was asleep. After the audio was finished, he suddenly heard her asking, "Aren't you going back?"

Chi Tang was originally lying on his side, but he changed to lying on his back when he heard the words, and dropped his phone, "I won't go back."

It's not the first time her father said that. Every time he said it, Chi Tang felt that that man really thought so, that he really didn't want her as a daughter, but there was nothing he could do.

Someone is setting off fireworks outside. It’s almost the Chinese New Year, and everyone with a family is at home.

Wechat is quiet, her father only sent this wechat, and never cared about her.

The fireworks exploded for a long time, and many complicated emotions in Chi Tang's heart suddenly exploded like fireworks.

"My parents were divorced before, and they have been in the lawsuit for a long time." Chi Tang looked at the ceiling and said, "At that time, apart from fighting for property, they were fighting for my custody rights, but not for my custody. To want me is to fight not to want me."

"My mother was afraid that I would cling to her and delay her finding a new boyfriend and marrying a good man, so she gave me a lot of pocket money in private and told me to take the initiative to choose my father."

"But my dad doesn't want me either, and I'm not a son. It's a pity that he was diagnosed with illness, and he has no children except me, so he just admitted this bad luck and continued to raise me. But he hates me very much. He hated me even more before, thinking that I took his son's place." Chi Tang sneered.

"He always blames me when he's drunk, saying that if he can only have one child in his life, why isn't it a boy."

You Yu listened quietly, she had guessed that Chi Tang might not have a good relationship with his family, but she never thought it would be like this.

Chi Tang realized that he had talked too much, but he couldn't help the grievance and anger welling up in his heart, and finally uttered a sentence full of resentment:

"If you don't want me, why did you have me in the first place?"

The little sun was not turned off, and the warm yellow light made the room very bright. When You Yu tilted his head, he saw the light in Chi Tang's eyes, which was about to fall down.

She didn't know what to say, so she sat up and took out a piece of paper, and gently pressed the corner of Chi Tang's eyes.

Chi Tang didn't look at her, took the tissue, turned over and looked at the opposite wall, and stopped making any noise.

You Yu didn't hear anything from her after a while, so he guessed in his heart that Chi Tang was sad, and probably felt embarrassed again because of what he said to her just now.

Chi Tang is actually a very strong and stubborn person. When she was at the same table with her, if she felt embarrassed when something happened, she would just keep silent and ignore others like this. If it was too embarrassing, she would second Tian didn't even talk much, as if this could make her appear cruel.

When they were not familiar with each other, Chi Tang was the first to notice her embarrassment, and bought her a bra unexpectedly, and it was the same, trying to cover up the embarrassment with a utter coldness.

She actually didn't want to accept it at the time, she wasn't used to owing people things, but Chi Tang's expression at that time... If she returned it, Chi Tang would definitely become angry.

Moreover, this is the first time she has received a friendly message, although she is not used to it, she still wants to cherish it.

"Chi Tang."

Chi Tang felt someone touch her shoulder, and she closed her eyes without responding.

You Yu didn't care about it either, and just said to her: "When we grow up, everything will be fine." This is a sentence her former teacher told her, and she has always used this sentence to insist.

"When we are adults, we can earn money to support ourselves, find a job we like...everything will be fine, just keep going."

Chi Tang didn't speak, but she was a little uncomfortable, and couldn't help thinking: You Yu is no better than me, so she came to comfort me?

With this thought in mind, Chi Tang fell asleep in a daze.You Yu didn't fall asleep much. She counted the money she had saved, thought about whether her father had given up looking for her to leave Nanlin, and thought about the future. She thought a lot.

Chi Tang's feet were cold, as if he couldn't sleep warmly, and stretched out from the side unconsciously, You Yu felt that he had touched a piece of ice, and his thoughts were interrupted, and he quietly brought his warm feet closer, she thought, maybe tomorrow should give Chi Tang some water. A hot water bag will do.

When Chi Tang woke up the next day, he found that You Yu had woken up at some point. She put on her clothes and went out to see that the small living room that hadn't been cleaned yesterday had been cleaned.

Chi Tang: "..."

You Yu was in the kitchen, Chi Tang leaned against the door frame and asked her, "What time did you wake up, you've almost finished cleaning."

You Yu turned to look at her: "Don't lean on the door frame, the door frame is not wiped."

Chi Tang lowered his head, and sure enough, he saw a mark on his clothes.When she raised her hand to take a picture, You Yu had already come over with a hot towel to wipe off the dust.

Chi Tang: "...Don't clean up, let's go out for breakfast."

You Yu: "Do you want to buy vegetables and cook for yourself? Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and there should be few shops open."

Chi Tang searched the kitchen with her, and the gas stove grandma used to use was gone, only the induction cooker was found to work, and the pots and pans were piled up in the cabinet, covered with dust.When Chi Tang saw this, he couldn't afford to deal with it, and wanted to go outside to buy new ones temporarily, but before she said it, You Yu had already brought water over, as if to wash it all.

In the end, Chi Tang could only say: "Go get hot water to wash, don't you feel cold with cold water?"

The two ate breakfast, squatted in the room and scrubbed for a whole day. Chi Tang couldn't remember how long he hadn't cleaned like this. She basically didn't help much. Although she didn't want to admit it, she might still help You Yu It's a waste of time.

You Yu was serious about studying and cleaning, Chi Tang felt that it was almost done several times, and turned around to see her cleaning the corners.

"Don't wipe it there, don't worry about it."

"Okay, it will be fine soon."

"Why do you have to drag under the sofa under the bed?"

"Well, it'll be fine soon."

"Don't wipe it there, we won't live for a long time."

"Okay, I'm done wiping."

Chi Tang looked at the back of his tablemate who was busy, and felt speechless. Why did they make it like their home and spend so much effort to clean it up?

But Chi Tang had to admit that when the small house became clean, she somehow felt a little more at ease. It seemed that this place was no longer a temporary place to stay, but a house where she could really live.

At noon, I ate instant noodles hastily. In the evening, Chi Tang planned to find a small restaurant that was still open to treat You Yu to a good meal, but she overestimated this small county. Apart from a few supermarkets, there were no other shops at this time. Still open and no restaurants.

"Then let's buy dumplings and cook them at home." You Yu didn't care, and chose dumplings in the freezer.

In the end, I bought dumplings and glutinous rice balls. The two walked back with their things, stepping on the snow on the side of the street, creaking.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, each of them held a bowl of dumplings, grilled the little sun, and watched the TV program on Chi Tang's tablet.

Similar faces, similar program openings, colorful festive singing and dancing.

Chi Tang tore two marinated eggs, gave one to You Yu, and watched the show with an indescribable expression: "What kind of ugly clothes are these, bright red and green, dancing like a mosaic."

You Yu wanted to laugh when she saw her talking like this, and felt that her talking was much more interesting than lively shows.

Listening to the loud fireworks outside, You Yu and Chi Tang spent their first New Year's Eve together in their life.
