On New Year's Eve, Xing Qi got up early from the warm blanket, wrapped herself in a red ball, walked out of the room, and met Grandpa Pei who was doing Tai Chi in the yard.

Grandpa Pei is getting older and feels less and less.Thanks to regular exercise, his body is very strong, with a somewhat fairy-like posture.

Xing Qi ran out staggeringly, squatted on the threshold and watched Grandpa Pei's every move, with a very focused expression.When Grandpa Pei finished playing a set, he walked over like a little penguin, imitating Grandpa Pei's gestures.

"No, no, you only have form, but no spirit." Grandpa Pei looked at him happily, and corrected Xing Qi one by one, "You can't move stiffly, you must have strength of character."

"Bone of character?" Xing Qi tilted his head, not knowing such an abstract concept.He jumped and asked, "Is it that crazy?"

Grandpa Pei made the little lunatic even more amused, smiled and took him to the room, took out the prepared red envelope and handed it to Xing Qi, "Here, this is the lucky money."

It was the first time that Xing Qi received lucky money from outside his family, and it felt very novel. According to what Xing Si gave him before, he said crisply, "Grandpa, Happy New Year."

"Happy, happy, and you too." Grandpa Pei knew that the child was older than Pei Mu, but couldn't help but treat him like a child, and secretly said to Xing Qi in a low voice, "Put away the red envelopes, and grandpa will bring them to you later." You go to the back mountain to find a small shop, buy some guns and come back."

"Dad, I brought cannons from the city, it must be enough for him to play with." Pei Ruhai came out when he heard the movement, and answered helplessly after hearing the words.When Pei Mu was young, his father always liked to say this to Pei Mu.But the son has a dull personality and is not interested in those things, and the father is always disappointed.

No idea who wants to play, the old kid.

Pei Ruhai tidied up her clothes and came over. Looking at the happy Xing Qi, she deeply felt that the 'daughter-in-law' was really cute and lively, and she was very likable, "Xiao Qi, why do you get up so early and don't sleep much? I thought you would definitely lie Where's the bed?"

"I don't sleep late," Xing Qi turned to look at him and replied, "Amumu went to make medicine, and said that it would be ready for me to drink later."

"You're still taking medicine, how pitiful." Pei Ruhai knew about Xing Qi's lack of energy, and looked over with pity.He took out the red envelope he had prepared earlier and handed it over, "Here, the lucky money."

Xing Qi took it and said obediently, "Thank you, Dad."

Pei Ruhai let the sweetness of his father's call enter his heart, waved his hand and said, "Okay, go find Pei Mu to drink medicine. Later, Dad will take you to the snowy slope on the top of the mountain to catch the weasel hiding in the snow. "

Xing Qi nodded, and happily went to the back kitchen to find Pei Mu who was making medicine.

Grandpa Pei looked at Xing Qi's wobbly back, and asked Pei Ruhai, "That child, who is Amu?"

"Uh..." Pei Ruhai was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

"Just tell the truth, I haven't experienced anything at my age." Grandpa Pei said calmly, as if he had already guessed the result.

When Grandma Pei heard them talking about this topic, she also leaned over, as if she saw something.

Pei Ruhai gritted his teeth, and said tactfully, "The relationship should be what you think. In short, Amu will live with him from now on."

"I just said, why do ordinary students come home after the New Year's Eve." Grandma Pei lowered her head and cut the window grilles, she was not picky about Xing Qi, and she was not surprised, "It's better to have someone as a companion, it's better than you, I've been alone most of my life."

Pei Ruhai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he didn't expect that he would become a tactful way for his parents to accept their son's sexual orientation.

"If that's the case, we have to treat other people's children better." Grandpa Pei pondered for a while, then said leisurely, "Oh, what a wonderful child."

Pei Mu helped Xing Qi boil the medicine to watch him drink it, and fed him two more candies before leading him to the front hall, and first said to Pei Ruhai, "Your health is poor, and Xiao Qi's health is also not good. If you two go to the snow slope If one falls, who will help whom?"

Pei Ruhai let him scold him, not knowing how to refute, and resentfully withdrew the idea of ​​taking Xing Qi uphill.

Pei Mu looked around and said, "Grandma, after you cut the window grilles, I'll post them for you."

"Okay, there are a few couplets next to it. You paste them on the front door and the door, and I'll get you the paste." Grandma Pei said, and handed him the batter that had been boiled.

The Pei family celebrates the New Year very traditionally, and they don’t even use tape to paste Spring Festival couplets.Xing Qi looked at the white paste, carefully stretched out his hand to dip a little, put it in his mouth and licked it, "It doesn't taste..."

"Those are for posting Spring Festival couplets, of course they are tasteless." Pei Mu took Grandma Pei's window grille Spring Festival couplets, took Xing Qi's hand, walked outside, and handed him a stack of red ones, "I'm in charge of posting them, post them well for you hand to me."

Pei Mu stepped on the bench, tore off the old and faded window grilles from several high windows, and spread out the new window grilles in Xing Qi's hands, sticking them with paste.He has done this kind of thing since he was a child, and he posted it perfectly.

Xing Qi lifted her neck to look below, and couldn't help but admire, "Wow, it's so beautiful!"

Grandma Pei is very handy, in addition to the ordinary flowers and plants, there are also window grilles of various small animals, which are very beautiful when pasted on the windows.Xing Qi watched helplessly as he finished pasting the window grilles and started pasting the couplets again, the envy in his eyes became more and more intense.

Walking to the house where the two of them lived, Pei Mu handed the remaining pair of Spring Festival couplets to Xing Qi, "You can do this one."

"Is it okay?" After getting permission, Xing Qi took the curtain excitedly, climbed onto the small stool with a snort, dipped the batter on the four corners of the Spring Festival couplets, and licked off the excess.

Seeing his unhygienic behavior, Pei Mu stopped him and said, "Don't stuff the used paste into your mouth, it's not clean."

"Oh, yes." Xing Qi responded, holding up the horizontal batch, standing on tiptoe, sticking it solemnly, and following Pei Mu's instructions, he pasted the upper and lower couplets.

Pei Mu took him to wash his hands, seeing that there was nothing to help at home, and they were useless for the New Year's Eve dinner, so he took Xing Qi up the hillside, found a flat place and took out all kinds of firecrackers that Pei Ruhai bought .

Pei Ruhai probably contracted out all the items in the store. Apart from the usual firecrackers, there are also fairy sticks and small firecrackers, which are all things for children.Pei Mu looked at the instructions, and roughly picked out a few that Xing Qi might like.

"What's this?" Xing Qi opened the box that Pei Mu handed over, and inside were translucent balls of paper, pinched into the shape of buns, and a few small stones could be seen inside.

"This should be called throwing cannons." Pei Mu had never played with this kind of thing even when he was very young, so he didn't know how to properly explain it to Xing Qi.He lives in the mountains, and has never seen other children playing, so he can only take it for granted and explain it to him with his own understanding, "It should make a sound when you fall to the ground."

"Is that so?" Xing Qi picked up a small ball of paper and threw it into the soft snowdrift.Nothing happened but smashed a shallow nest in the snow.

Xing Qi ran over, squatted in front of the snow nest and observed carefully for half a minute, and began to mutter, "According to Schrödinger's famous law, he may or may not have exploded, because I don't know what it would be like to explode." of."

"You are too weak, and you are in the snow again, so it must not have exploded." Pei Mu pulled him over, took two from Xing Qi's hand, threw them on the big rock next to him, and immediately heard a clear explosion. .

Seeing Xing Qi's adoring eyes, Pei Mu felt a little sad in his heart. He actually started playing with such childish things after he became an adult.

After Xing Qi knew how to play, he quickly disposed of a box of throwing cannons, and then aimed at other fun things.Considering various factors such as safety, Pei Mu chose the fairy wand, which is the easiest to play and looks good.

Xing Qi held a thin wire of a fairy stick in one hand, and Pei Mu took out a lighter to help him light it.It's not dark yet, so there's not much light to see.Xing Qi still showed a very happy expression when he heard that the explosion was a small sizzling sound.

"Xiao Qi." Pei Mu called him, telling Xing Qi to turn around and freeze his current appearance in the camera.

It was cold, and the two of them didn't play for too long.When they returned to the house, several elders were preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.Pei Mu rubbed Xing Qi's cold little hands, and asked him if he wanted to sit on the bed.

Xing Qi shook his head, obviously more excited than usual, "No, I want to post on Weibo."

Pei Mu asked him to warm his hands first, then handed him the phone, and let Xing Qi look at the photo he took just now.

Recently, more and more photos have been taken, and TOEFL Pei Mu's photography level has improved by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.The background of the photo is white snow, and Xing Qi is wearing a bright red dress standing in the snow, which is a very eye-catching scenery in itself.He held two fairy wands in his hands, and the faint light was faintly visible in the sunlight.The boy's eyes are clearer than stream water, his skin is whiter than snow, he purses his lips and smiles, making you willing to hold the whole world in front of him in an instant.

Pei Mu didn't retouch the picture, but the composition and the protagonist of the photo itself are beautiful enough.Xing Qi put the photo on Weibo, and added Happy New Year in a regular manner.

Fans who were preparing the New Year's Eve dinner at home, or waiting for the meal, swiped to this Weibo, and the screams almost pierced through the screen and deafened Xing Qi's eardrums.

-Ahhh, the red one, I have never thought that boys playing with fairy sticks can be so cute, I really want to give him a hug and hold him high

-Xiaoxi, you wear too much clothes. There is a kind of coldness that calls your boyfriend to think you are cold. It is true, but it is so cute if you wear thick clothes, wobbling like a little penguin

- Seeing me during the Chinese New Year is in a great mood, I am happy New Year!Where are you this year?Are you having a good time?Have you received any lucky money?

After reading this comment, Xing Qi hesitated, and clicked to reply: I am very happy at my boyfriend's house. His family gave me lucky money, and I am very grateful to them.

Not thank you for receiving lucky money.

Instead, thank them for accepting him and letting him understand the feeling of home.

From childhood to adulthood, it was the first time that Xing Qi knew that Chinese New Year should be a happy and warm one. Even doing trivial things can make people very happy all day long.

Grandma Pei poked her head out of the kitchen and smiled when she heard the noise, "Is Xiaoqi back? Come and help me taste the fried meatballs."

Xing Qi put away her phone and happily replied, "Okay, I'm here!"
