what's weird

Gu Yizhi remembered that when he went home last time, he strayed into the ghost village because the bus broke down, and according to the direction the bus was driving, Longquanling was the only way to go. He didn't want to get close to Longquanling at this time, so he chose the high-speed rail .After getting out of the train station, I transferred to a bus, and after bumping on the bus for another hour, I arrived at the Shanshuihuating Community in the city center.Liu Neng, the security guard on duty, actually knew him and raised his hand to greet him warmly. Gu Yizhi didn't call home in advance this time, thinking of giving his parents a surprise.

He opened the door, and Gu's mother, who was busy in the kitchen, heard a loud noise and said, "I'm back! Wash your hands, you can eat right away!"

Gu Yizhi silently walked to the door of the kitchen, watched Gu's mother cooking in an apron, and said without looking back amidst the whirring sound of the range hood: "Today I made pork rib soup with mountain mushrooms, but it's still fresh, it will take a while Have a drink. I don’t know if Yizhi has eaten, and I haven’t seen him call back in the past two days, why don’t you call him now?”

Gu Yizhi didn't speak, just stared at his mother's movements in a daze, Gu's mother took the plate and said, "Don't just stay there, quickly help me get the soup out..." The unfinished words stopped the moment she turned her head, Gu's mother stood there in a daze, and it took her a long time to realize: "Yizhi? When did you come back?"

"Just arrived. Mom, I'll help you." Gu Yizhi walked over to help serve the dishes.

"Is the police station on holiday?" Mother Gu asked suspiciously.In the past, Gu Yizhi's ability to go home in time for the New Year's Eve dinner was already a big deal, but it's still a week before the New Year's Eve, and it's not so early to have a holiday!

"I don't have any cases at hand recently, so I'll come back early to accompany you." Gu Yizhi said with a smile, trying to make himself look more natural.

Gu's mother stared at his face, and asked worriedly: "You look so bad, did something happen to you?"

"Maybe I've been in the car for too long, and I'm a little tired." Gu Yizhi looked away, trying to hide it.

Although she guessed that he might have something to hide, Mother Gu didn't want to press him, so she patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then go back to your room and rest, and I'll call you after dinner."

"Mom, I'm fine. I have to go home after a long time. I have to do some work. If there are any dishes left, I'll fry them." Gu Yizhi rolled up his sleeves and said.

"Don't, don't, I'm afraid you'll burn the kitchen down!" Mother Gu pushed him out, "Stay outside!"

The door of the room was opened at this moment, and Gu's father, who was carrying a document bag, walked in, looked up at Gu Yizhi, and was taken aback for a while, before asking: "Is it on vacation?"

"Dad, I..." Gu Yizhi didn't know how to answer.Gu's mother took a look at him, walked over to pull Gu's father, and said, "It's good for him to come back, whether he's on vacation or not, let's go, help me bring out the soup first."

Father Gu walked into the kitchen full of doubts, and asked in a low voice, "What happened to Yizhi?"

"Maybe it has something to do with work. He refuses to talk about it, so let's not put pressure on him." Mother Gu sighed.

Father Gu nodded: "It's more important than anything else that he can come back safely. Let other things take their course and talk about it when he wants to."

During the meal, they had a tacit understanding not to ask Gu Yizhi about his work, but instead picked interesting things that happened in Hanchang University. Gu Yizhi listened to their words and made peace, chatting happily Can't help showing a smile on his face.Only home is the place where people can truly relax. Back in the room, Gu Yizhi looked around at the spotless room cleaned up by Gu's mother, and sighed softly.

The night scene of Hanchang is very beautiful. Standing in the sun, he watched Wanjia lights twinkling in the night like stars. The cold wind mixed with moisture was blowing on his face and flowing into his body through his breath. Even his chest seemed to be faintly shaking. ache.He didn't close the window, and went directly to the bed and lay down. The air conditioner was not turned on in the room, and the wind blew the curtains. He hugged the quilt and curled up into a ball, feeling colder and colder.

After lying quietly for a while, Gu Yizhi's hands almost lost their temperature due to the cold. He sat up from the bed and took out a black coat from the suitcase.This is the clothes that Feng Ze left with him. It has been hanging in the closet. It is also the only luggage he brought back from Yicheng. He carefully holds the coat in his arms and buries his head deep in it.

It's cold, it's really cold, why is it so cold...

Gu's mother came to wake him up early these two days, and she was startled when she entered the door: "You child, why don't you close the window when you sleep? It's so cold, what should you do if you catch a cold?" With the window closed, Gu Yizhi still didn't sleep almost all night, and even his clothes were still the same as yesterday's.Gu's mother pushed him in disgust: "Hurry up, take a shower and change your clothes, let's go out and buy new year's goods later."

"Mom, don't you have to go to work today?" Gu Yizhi asked.

"The school has been on winter vacation for a long time, and the students have all gone home. Your father has a project to report, and our mother and I are also free. Take advantage of these few days to prepare the New Year's goods." Gu mother tidied up the bed. While saying, "You said why you are getting more and more sloppy, you don't even know how to change your clothes when you sleep, hurry up, don't dawdle with this!"

Gu Yizhi responded, walked into the bathroom and took a shower, the person in the mirror still had two obvious dark circles under his eyes, he sighed, changed his clothes and walked out of the room.Gu's mother was waiting for him in the living room, and when she saw him wearing a down jacket, she scolded him again: "How many years have you been wearing this dress, and the cuffs are worn out like this, and you still don't want to change it? No wonder you haven't been able to hand over your daughter to me after working for so many years." Friend, you deserve to stay single like this!"

"It's quite warm." Gu Yizhi patted the dust on his clothes and said.

"Okay, okay, I'll go to the mall to pick you a new one later, you don't think it's embarrassing, I don't think it's embarrassing!" Mother Gu said angrily, pulled him and went out.

Parkson is one of the largest shopping malls in Hanchang. It has already been filled with festive atmosphere at the end of this year. Promotional slogans are hung in front of almost every store, and the flow of people shopping comes and goes. Although Gu Yizhi is not interested in going He wanted to join in the fun, but under strong pressure from Gu's mother, he was still dragged into a men's clothing store.Probably shopping is a woman's nature. Although the prices on the clothes labels are jaw-dropping, Gu's mother still has a lot of fun choosing them, and she can't wait for Gu Yizhi to try on every piece of clothing.

Gu Yizhi absentmindedly tried on one piece of clothing after another, he didn't even have an impression of what the last one he bought was like, but when he saw the black card in his wallet when he swiped the card, his expression darkened, and he was shocked by Gu's mother. Hand over another bank card before you realize it.After coming out of the store, Gu's mother was still thinking about which ones were suitable just now, Gu Yizhi inadvertently looked up and saw Yang Nana walking with a handsome boy on her arm.

With a happy smile on her face, she was obviously taken aback when she saw Gu Yizhi, and quickly looked away, pretending that she didn't see him, and walked past them as if nothing had happened.Gu's mother followed Gu Yizhi's line of sight, and said, "Nana is getting engaged soon, it seems like it's only these two days."

"They are a good match." Gu Yizhi said with a smile.

"Are you envious? It's great to see people in pairs!" Mother Gu winked and said, "The girl I told you about last time is your Uncle Wang's daughter. Do you remember that she is also at home now?" , I will contact you to meet in the evening. That girl is really nice, she is beautiful and very sensible, you must..."

"Mom, no need." Gu Yizhi interrupted her.

"Chinese New Year is the time for a blind date, how can we not use it! Let me tell you, I have met that girl twice. She is about 1.6 meters tall, with fair skin, big eyes, and two dimples when she smiles. , is very likable, and..." Gu's mother praised the girl endlessly, but Gu Yizhi interrupted her again.

"I have a favorite person."

Gu's mother was taken aback, and asked with bright eyes: "Did you meet in Yicheng? Why didn't you take it home for us to see?"

"You've already met him." Gu Yizhi said calmly.

"Have you met?" Gu's mother frowned and thought for a long time, "Is it your female colleague named An Hui? I remember that girl was very straightforward. When did you two start talking?"

"It's not her." Gu Yizhi said.

"Then I haven't seen anyone else before. Tell me, who is it?" Mother Gu asked urgently, unable to hold back her curiosity.

Gu Yizhi was silent for a long time before slowly opening his mouth and saying, "Feng Ze."

On the way back from the shopping mall, Gu's mother didn't say a word, and Gu Yizhi walked slowly behind her. He knew what his words meant, but he didn't regret it.He will tell his parents about this matter sooner or later, no matter what time it is, as long as he wants to say it, it is the most appropriate time.Gu's mother didn't cook at night, and when Gu's father came back, he dragged him into the room with a dark face, hesitated for a while and couldn't say anything.

"What's the matter?" Father Gu couldn't help becoming anxious.

"Yi Zhi said today that he has a sweetheart." Mother Gu finally opened her mouth.

"This is a good thing. Don't you just want to hug your grandson and ask him to invite someone out to meet you?" Gu's father noticed that his wife's expression was wrong, and asked again, "Why, that girl doesn't like him?"

"It's just as simple as this!" Gu's mother hesitated for a long time before she said directly, "He's a man!"

These few words knocked Gu's father into a coma. It took a while to recover, and asked cautiously, "A man? You said that the person Yi Zhi likes is a man?"

"It's Feng Ze! The Feng Ze who gave you a writing brush for your birthday last time!" Mother Gu threw herself at it and spoke out all the words.

"It's okay, it's okay." Father Gu was actually relieved.

"What's the matter! Is it okay if your son likes men?" Gu's mother was furious.

"At least Yizhi has a good eye. Didn't you praise Feng Ze from head to toe last time?" In comparison, Gu's father seemed calm and good.

"Then you can't compensate him with your son!" Gu's mother jumped up and said, "Old Gu, you won't be bought by someone with a pen hair, right?"

"Don't you think Feng Ze is very similar to that person?" Father Gu asked.

"I think he looks the most like malicious!" Mother Gu said angrily.

"Think about it carefully, Yicheng, the Feng family..." Father Gu explained patiently.

Gu's mother was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "You mean Master Feng?"
