Chapter 122 Extra Story - AIWEN
"Honey! Come here!"
The small county town is really small, each alley is a short one, and there are probably a few families scattered there, and you can see it when you open the door and close it-the alleys here can still hear echoes.
Li Ning's home is here. There is a corner at the entrance of the alley, and she can barely find a shaded corner in summer. There is her grandma's grocery stall.
Her family is suffering, but the father who hasn't been home for hundreds of years will send her back some living expenses on a monthly basis, which is quite a lot.
It's just that since I brought Gu Xiaowen home two years ago, it seems a little stretched to share the living expenses that are just enough for the two of them to live.
Fortunately, Li Ning has a brain and knows how to start a small business, so he can earn some small money back every month.
She had graduated from junior high school, so she immediately took over a jewelry store in front of the junior high school, and opened the shop herself.There is also a refrigerator at the entrance of the store, selling some cold drinks and popsicles, which can be regarded as part-time income for the store.
On this day, the weather was already hot, but the old fan was still creaking and could not bring in any cool breeze. She was annoyed when she saw a black varnished dog squatting in front of the store.
Li Ning, who always thinks his wife is bigger than the sky, the first reaction when he sees a new gadget is naturally to call his wife who is eating ice cream in the next door to come over and watch the dog.
The two were talking about what is so good about a native dog, and Li Ning was still wasting his saliva as he introduced the special breed of Chinese pastoral dog, but when he glanced at the spot where the native dog was squatting, he found another person standing beside it.
"Eh? Chi Yuwan?" Li Ning almost didn't think he was wrong.
But the person in front of him was undoubtedly Chi Yuwan, with his long ponytail leaning against his back, his face was like an eggplant beaten by frost, he was so excited that he couldn't see any joy.
This is different from Chi Yuwan who usually looks cheerful.
Gu Xiaowen secretly pinched Li Ning's waist, and walked up to Chi Yuwan first.
"Come to buy something?"
When Chi Yuwan saw Gu Xiaowen, she was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this was Li Ning's girlfriend. Then she thought about her own situation, and after a little comparison, she felt that the girl in front of her was so damn happy.
"I won't buy it." She was going out for a stroll, but suddenly she was thirsty and wanted to buy a bottle of water and a drink.
Seeing that her expression was not right, Li Ning leaned over to stop her, and opened his mouth, "Did that bastard Xu Mianji make you unhappy?"
The name that was making a fuss in his heart was uttered like this, and Chi Yuwan almost didn't shed tears at that moment.
"Just talk if you have something to say, even if we don't know each other very well, it's not so bad that we don't care about it."
So, Chi Yuwan was half coaxed and half tricked by Li Ning into the jewelry store.Gu Xiaowen is a very smart person, when she heard Xu Mianji's name, and then saw the girl in front of her who was troubled by love and bored by love, she probably understood the matter in her heart.
Li Ning and her seem to be acquaintances, but for Li Ning, this girl is the highest in her heart, and she is only a classmate.
There is no threat, but she still has emotional entanglements with people she knows, and the fire of gossip and sympathy in Gu Xiaowen's heart is burning.
The jewelry store is not big in the first place, and the three small shelves divided the narrow space so that only one person can pass by. Therefore, on the side next to the wall, Li Ning moved three stools and lined them up front and back. I gave it to my wife first.
"Sit down, it won't be comfortable to hold something in your heart, and we can help you figure out a solution if you tell us." The one who spoke was Gu Xiaowen, who didn't look much older than Chi Yuwan, but she spoke like an old lady look like.
Chi Yuwan hadn't reached the point where he could express his heart to anyone, he opened his mouth in a daze but didn't say a word, he held back for a while, then just grinned at Gu Xiaowen.
Gu Xiaowen turned around and asked Li Ning with her eyes. Li Ning answered with winks. Others couldn't understand, but the two of them could still communicate without barriers.
"It's okay if you don't say anything, we do gossip, but we don't want to force you to say anything." Gu Xiaowen put both palms on Chi Yuwan's shoulders, her eyes were sincere, "But I am a little more mature than you, and I know And more, if you are willing to trust me, I can really help you solve a lot of doubts."
Chi Yuwan naturally didn't believe what he said, just like the old god stick wearing sunglasses pretending to set up a stall on the street.
Li Ning was not that careful, saying that she was a girl, but she was raised by a boy since she was a child. In the final analysis, she was a little nervous. Seeing that the two of them had nothing to talk about, she stood up.
"Honey, why don't we close the store early today and treat her to a meal?" Li Ning waved his hand, getting rich, "The visitor is a customer, and he works with me, why don't we go to the restaurant today !"
Gu Xiaowen flew over with a sneaky glance, and the raised eyebrows were unanswered questions, "You are rich, aren't you?"
When Chi Yuwan saw the person who dared to fight with the grade group leader, he was scared for a second, and the change of expression did not show a comma, "But I remembered again! We bought a lot of vegetables at home today, and we still cook by ourselves Right! Grandma is old and can't walk very well, and the restaurant is indeed a long distance for her..."
Chi Yuwan pursed her lips and smiled. Her mother taught her not to stay at someone else's house for dinner. No matter how good the relationship is, it will be a nuisance.But she, who would always refuse, miraculously did not say the phrase "I will not go" at this moment, but followed Li Ning and the others back home obediently.
She couldn't explain why she suddenly became rude, probably because she really wanted to know how Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen got along.
What will the love between two girls look like in every moment of life.
Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen really did not let her down, they performed with all their heart...violent tenderness, indifference and tenderness, etc. There are ninety-nine and 81 kinds of love that are the most authentic.
"Hurry up and get a bowl to serve the food! My mother's food is almost burnt into rice crackers!!"
"Damn it! Li Ning, did your ears grow to fry pig ears? Give me water! The food is smoking!!"
"Li Ning!"
"Li Ning!!"
"Li! Ning!!"
"..." Chi Yuwan carefully helped Grandma Li out of the back room, pretending she didn't hear the roars.
"I'm used to yelling like this every day. It's not easy for the two of them. They have to go to school and worry about making money. When they come back at night and make a lot of noise, I don't mind them." Grandma Li saw that Chi Yuwan was cute, The old man's love for the child was also aroused, and he couldn't help holding her hand and chatting with her.
Chi Yuwan hesitated for a while, looked at the two people wandering around in the kitchen, and asked Grandma Li, "Grandma, you know they..."
Did you know they were actually lovers?It's...the kind of despised...homosexuality.
Grandma Li knew what she was asking, "Can I not know? Ningning has been like this since she was a child. I always treat her like a boy. Xiaowen is also a good girl. Both of them are good boys. As long as they don't commit murder or break the law, I don't care too much."
Chi Yuwan never knew that in the eyes of adults, homosexuality is not such a shameful existence.
I just don't know if other adults see and think the same way.
During the meal, Li Ning went to the street to pick up a few bottles of beer and came back. Gu Xiaowen stretched out her hand to touch it. After getting enough temperature, she found that what Li Ning bought was cold beer and gave her a rather appreciative look, "It's not bad."
"It's good that our Wenwen is happy, hehe."
Grandma Li looked at the two of them like a child, and shook her head helplessly.
It shouldn't be too late to go home at night. After dinner, Chi Yuwan wanted to say thank you and say goodbye. Unexpectedly, Gu Xiaowen said that he would send her off, so he sent her all the way to the intersection.
"My house is right up there. It's not far away. Don't give it away." Chi Yuwan smiled and pointed not far away. Her house is really on that street, and it's only a few alleys away from Li Ning's house. .
"I chased you out because I wanted to ask you something." Gu Xiaowen looked back to see if anyone was following her, and then quietly asked her in Chi Yuwan's ear, "You like Xu Mianji, right?"
Chi Yuwan's expression changed instantly.
She has never said to anyone, "The person I like is Xu Mianji, do you know?" It seems that in her heart, Xu Mianji and liking are two words that cannot be matched at all. It has become an unbearable and painful secret.
"You know? I thought I wasn't gay at first, but then something happened at home, I met Li Ning, and I suddenly thought, hey, I really like this person, to the point where it doesn't matter if she is a woman. "The smile on Gu Xiaowen's face seemed to be 100% warm, melting the last bit of indifference on Chi Yuwan's body at once.
"Gay..." She put these three words in her mouth, chewed them carefully for a while, and then spit them out again, "No, I'm not gay, I don't like girls."
"But you like Xu Mianji, Xu Mianji is a girl." Gu Xiaowen expressed the only clear thread in the mess in Chi Yuwan's heart.
Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen are undoubtedly the only sources of answers in Chi Yuwan's mind at the moment. She really has too many questions in her mind, but she has nowhere to ask them. Make her feel like she sees a ray of light.
In the summer vacation, I had nothing to do, so Chi Yuwan started to run to Li Ning and the others every day. After eating, I went to the store to buy more things to pay for the meal. Most of the time, I just stayed quietly Watching Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen bicker and show their affection.
She found that regardless of gender, no matter what kind of love, it seems to be the same in the end.
Two girls, like heterosexuals, will quarrel, fight coldly, hug, kiss, sweet, violent, and so on. It seems that they only have the appearance of love, and they can't see the discomfort caused by the same gender.
Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen didn't say anything clearly, but they had already taught Chi Yuwan a lot by their own personal teaching, and many principles were understood and accepted by her.
What really made Chi Yuwan feel at a loss was that it rained suddenly one night. Gu Xiaowen hadn't caught up with the rain when she went out to throw out the trash, but she was drenched in water on the way back.
Chi Yuwan only heard a scream, which sounded particularly terrifying in the rainy night.
Li Ning, who was sitting beside her, flew out like an arrow, and before Chi Yuwan had time to react, she realized that Grandma Li was about to get up and go out, so she quickly grabbed the old man, "Grandma, it's raining heavily, don't go out. "
"Xiaowen... Oh, Xiaowen..." Grandma Li's brows and eyes were full of worry, and she sighed several times as she watched the sky in the distance be lit up by a lightning bolt for a moment.
Chi Yuwan was still thinking, this is just an alley, it is impossible for Gu Xiaowen to have a car accident, the scream was probably due to some other reason.
Just as she was thinking, Li Ning had brought back the shivering Gu Xiaowen. Both of them were drenched. Gu Xiaowen seemed to have been frightened by something. She bit her lip and burrowed into Li Ning's arms, her body trembling. Not presentable.
Chi Yuwan didn't know why, so he could only stand aside and watch Li Ning close all the doors and windows, and then turn on the speaker with a rough sound quality, and the slightly noisy music came out, and the thunder outside could be heard in the room Already much smaller.
Li Ning was still coaxing in a low voice, and even Grandma Li was patting Gu Xiaowen on the back, and she slowly calmed down.
"I'm too embarrassed." Gu Xiaowen first looked up at Chi Yuwan, then at Li Ning, wiped her face and got up to go to the bathroom.
Li Ning was worried, and hurriedly opened the bathroom door and went in.
Chi Yuwan glanced at the thunderstorm outside, thinking that he might not be able to go home.
"Xiaowen, Ning Ning actually picked it up on the side of the road." Grandma Li saw the way Gu Xiaowen looked at Chi Yuwan just now, and knew that she did not reject Chi Yuwan, so she explained Chi Yuwan's confusion first.
"Picked... back?" Such a big man, how could he be picked up?
"She is from the town next door. Something happened to her parents, and her uncle and aunt stared at the apartment in her hand, trying to make trouble for her over and over again, and let her just fend for herself." Grandma Li said here, She frowned, as if she was sympathizing with Gu Xiaowen's past, "It was a small village, but Xiaowen's temper was very wild. She sold the apartment by herself. She wanted to leave with the money, but was chased by that uncle. When they arrived, the money was taken away, and the people were beaten half to death.”
The later story is bloody but legendary enough. Li Ning was completely bewildered by the beauty. Seeing the dirty Gu Xiaowen on the street, she couldn't walk. She wanted to help her back home and take care of her for a while. , I didn't expect to stay like this all the time.
Gu Xiaowen is also free and easy, and directly repays her with her body.
Chi Yuwan opened her mouth. Regarding Gu Xiaowen's past encounters, she neither experienced nor understood how she lived like this at such a young age.
But at the same time, she felt that it was great for Gu Xiaowen to meet Li Ning.
"Grandma Li, why did the jewelry store close so early today?" Chi Yuwan jumped a few steps and hid under the sun umbrella at Grandma Li's grocery stand.
Grandma Li was making cold cakes, she glanced at Chi Yuwan while she was busy, she still looked cheerful.
"They probably went back. Alas, children are ignorant after all. How can they know how to stay in the store for a few more hours in order to earn a few more dollars?" Grandma Li waved her hand and asked Chi Yuwan to find They said, "He must be at home, go and have a look."
Chi Yuwan now spends most of his time with Li Ning and the others, even if his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys hurt from being abused by their love every day, it will be all right.
The door of the house was not closed, and Chi Yuwan guessed that the two of them might have come back early to cook, but when he went to the kitchen to take a look, he found that there was still no one there.
She was about to go out to look for it, but suddenly heard movement in the inner bedroom.
"Damn, wait a minute..." It was Gu Xiaowen's voice.
"Honey, if you hold my hand again, I'll be fooled." This was Li Ning's voice.
Chi Yuwan frowned slightly, and quietly walked to the bedroom door, and found that the two of them didn't even close the bedroom door, leaving just a gap, so that Chi Yuwan could see everything inside clearly.
The two bodies were stacked together, and the entangled figure was projected onto the wall through the light, and Chi Yuwan clearly heard the sound of more and more rapid breathing.
"Slow down, slow down..." Gu Xiaowen grabbed one of Li Ning's arms, and suddenly frowned again, "No, it's faster, faster..."
"Baby, my arm is about to break, how can you hold it so tight?" Li Ning seemed to be biting Gu Xiaowen's ear, and what he said sounded ambiguous and confusing.
Chi Yuwan held his breath and immediately understood what the people inside were doing.
Suddenly Gu Xiaowen bowed her body up, and a suppressed voice came out of her lips. Li Ning laughed softly, and lowered her head to kiss Gu Xiaowen's lips.
"Do you want more? Huh?" When Li Ning spoke in this tone, he was like a smiling hooligan.
Before Gu Xiaowen could answer whether she wanted it or not, Chi Yuwan had already run away covering her face.
Two days later, Chi Yuwan forced himself to ignore those things, and went to the jewelry store again.
This time Gu Xiaowen went out to buy goods, and only Li Ning was in the store.
"Why haven't you been here for a few days?" Li Ning was still keeping accounts, and hooked a stool for Chi Yuwan with his foot, "Your mother wouldn't enroll you in cram school, would she?"
Thinking that Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen are already doing those intimate things like adults, and now they are still talking to themselves in such a tone as they are talking to children, Chi Yuwan feels a little uncomfortable.
"I'm wondering if I should continue to like Xu Mianji." She deliberately talked about a topic that she thought was more profound than the cram school.
"You can decide whether you like her or not? If you like her and she ignores you, then you should give up, but it's been so long, have you given up? No. So, instead of thinking about it , might as well think about how to catch her."
"She didn't ignore me!" Chi Yuwan still wanted to defend himself, "It's just a little more indifferent than I hoped, it doesn't mean anything..."
"Well, let's change the subject." Li Ning stopped writing and looked up at Chi Yuwan, "Now I can be sure that you like Xu Mianji, so can you accept that you are gay? Accept it Are you prepared for the consequences?"
"...Not yet, almost." Chi Yuwan didn't have much confidence, she was timid at first, but she had a big heart, and fell in love with Xu Mianji, who was unlikely to win at first glance.
"Come here, I'll teach you." Li Ning hooked his fingers at Chi Yuwan, "I won Xiaowen back then, not because of any kindness, but because of my real personal charm."
"Break, break..." So Gu Xiaowen was bent?
Li Ning then taught her how to pick up girls from face to method. Seeing Chi Yuwan's serious and serious face, she suddenly seemed to be teasing her.
"How much do you know about lesbians?" Li Ning rested his chin on his hands and looked at Chi Yuwan, "I'll just ask the simplest question, how to do it, do you know?"
"Do it..." Chi Yuwan almost yelled at you for being a big-headed ghost, and his face turned red in an instant.
Li Ning laughed, and realized that Chi Yuwan really didn't understand, so he got closer and whispered some erotic methods in her ear.
It's also a two-woman version.
After Chi Yuwan attended the class like this, his face was always red. When he left, he bumped into Gu Xiaowen who was just coming back, and almost fell to the ground with his legs limp.
"What's wrong with you?" If Gu Xiaowen didn't know Li Ning's temper, she would really think that Li Ning did something to Chi Yuwan.
"It's nothing." Chi Yuwan quickly shook his head, blushing and ran away again.
Gu Xiaowen entered the store carrying the goods, her eyes turned cold.
Li Ning sneezed inexplicably during the day, and when he looked up, he was almost hurt by a knife in the eye, and quickly dodged, "My wife, spare me!"
"What the hell did you do!"
"Eh?" Li Ning thought about it carefully, she really didn't do anything wrong.
Gu Xiaowen stepped on Li Ning's feet, which were only wearing slippers, "Chi Yuwan! She just left blushing! Did you tell someone something inappropriate for children?"
"This is basic introductory knowledge. She doesn't know anything. She just knows that she likes Xu Mianji so stupidly. How boring." Li Ning held back his grin, pulled Gu Xiaowen into his arms, bowed his head and kissed her her lips.
Gu Xiaowen couldn't stand Li Ning like this, so she relaxed and bit Li Ning lightly.
"Naughty." Li Ning chuckled, tilted his head slightly, and slowly embraced Gu Xiaowen's lips, as if he was eating a cherry, and deliberately made a sound.
"That's a rascal, you!" Gu Xiaowen threw away the things in her hand, rolled up her sleeves and started to counterattack.
Not long after, the scroll door was suddenly pulled down from inside.
In broad daylight, what makes people not even want to make money?
III.
"I'm here to change shifts." Gu Xiaowen was still wearing the doll dress in the tea shop. She walked from the school gate to the canteen and attracted a lot of strange eyes. It's just that she was too tired and had no strength to go. Take care of those.
Li Ning was paying someone else's bill, and when he glanced at Gu Xiaowen, his hair exploded in an instant, "How do you wear your clothes!"
There was only a black down jacket on top of the thin baby skirt. The temperature outside was low and the wind was strong, so she didn't even zip it up!
Abandoning the business in his hand, Li Ning turned directly from the counter, landed firmly in front of Gu Xiaowen, and quickly pulled the zipper for her from bottom to top, covering only her round eyes.
"Is it cold?" Li Ning grabbed Gu Xiaowen's hand, her hand is warm all year round, but Gu Xiaowen's hands and feet are cold when it is cold, like a frozen corpse.
"Go and eat quickly, I'll watch over here." Gu Xiaowen saw that there were still people waiting for the checkout in the store, so she pushed Li Ning's hand away, "If you don't go, the cafeteria will be closed."
Although the school is not a serious high school, it still has its own classes to teach. The control is not strict, but nonsense is not tolerated.Li Ning has been busy doing business every day since he opened this canteen. He would skip class whenever he could. Sometimes, in order to stay longer in the store and earn more money, it is common for him to only eat one meal a day.
Both of them are desperately trying to make money, but they just want to make life better at home. It would be best if grandma can take over the grocery stall and just stay at home to enjoy the rest of their lives.
Li Ning didn't say anything, and ran away after thinking about it. When he came back, he took two portions of rice in his hand. It was already a little cold, and there were not many dishes. It was probably left over from the cafeteria.
"Did you pay?" Gu Xiaowen glared at Li Ning without moving her chopsticks.
"Here! Two meals cost five yuan!" Li Ning took out two bottles of wine from the cabinet behind the table, which she warmed specially, and putting them in her arms could even warm her stomach.
"A meal in the cafeteria costs eight yuan even if it is one vegetarian and two meat dishes. Look here! Although there is no meat, it is all meat dishes anyway. You mentioned two, how could it be only five yuan!" Gu Xiaowen knew Li Ning is relying on this glib mouth to fool the aunt in the cafeteria again.
"Auntie said that she didn't want to take money at first, but I insisted on giving it. She said that she didn't have any food, so just give me something." Li Ning broke off the chopsticks and handed them to Gu Xiaowen, "I have them in my pocket. If it’s five yuan, just order it and give it to her.”
"Li Ning! No matter how poor we are, we can't take advantage of others like this!" Gu Xiaowen was about to cry in anger, but her eyes turned red for a moment, before being covered up by anger.
"Understood, it won't happen in the future." Li Ning lifted the cap of the wine bottle again, and the hippie smile on his face disappeared a lot. We look at the store so we can read some more books. It’s just that wages are also an expense, and I don’t think I can save as much as I can.”
Gu Xiaowen finally calmed down, raised her head and took a big gulp of wine, her eyes finally turned red quietly.
Too bitter, too tired.
People of the same age as them are still children, and they are raised by their parents. They are not in the scope of daily necessities to worry about. The biggest worries every day are studying and the people they like.
But life never seems to be kind to those who are already suffering. It will only make them suffer more and more, enjoy themselves in suffering, and regard poverty as a funny and humble joke.
"Wenwen, this kind of life won't last long, you trust me, okay?" Li Ning probably got used to being independent since she was a child, except that Grandma Li would spoil her and love her, and then met Gu Xiaowen, life That's all the sweetness in it, she got less, but she expected less.
"Can I cry?" asked the question, and tears fell into the bowl long ago.
"...Of course." Li Ning got up and walked around the small table, bent over and hugged the girl whose shoulders were shaking all the time, and a kiss landed on the top of her hair.
After being quiet for a few minutes, Gu Xiaowen suddenly pushed Li Ning away again, and turned away her face a little arrogantly. There were no traces of crying on her face, "There is nothing to cry about! My old lady is still a flower in the village." , It’s nothing to suffer a little, I believe we will live a good life one day! There will be a big house, no need to do housework, no need to cater to others, we will sit at home with grandma and count the money Play, go abroad for a trip if you are interested, if you can’t, it’s fine to stay in a big house every day!"
Li Ning burst out laughing, "Honey, you are so cute!"
"Can cuteness be sold for money?" Gu Xiaowen blinked.
"It depends on who you sell it to. If you sell it to me, I will buy it even if I lose all my money." Li Ning said with a smile, lowering his head and slowly covering those small lips.
after a long time.
When Li Ning finally saved enough money to buy a two-bedroom house, Grandma Li also took over the grocery stall and passed away.
After finishing Grandma Li's funeral in the small county, Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen stayed in the old house left by Grandma Li for two full days without eating or drinking, without saying a word or even moving.
Li Ning's parents didn't even come back for the funeral. If it weren't for the extra money in the account every month, Li Ning would even suspect that they were already dead.
"In this world, I really have nothing." Li Ning thought so, but this idea was instantly denied. She moved her stiff neck and looked at Gu Xiaowen next to her, "I still have Wenwen Well, this is my last bit of sweetness."
"In the future... where shall we go?" Gu Xiaowen has never been so desperate. Neither she nor Li Ning has been admitted to university. Apart from this house, they only have a few 10 yuan saved over the years.
"I won't buy a new house, and I won't sell this house. Let's stay here and go out to see the outside world, okay?" Li Ning rolled down from the sofa and climbed a few steps to get on his stomach. Gu Xiaowen's leg, "No matter what, I only have you now, and there is nothing to lose if I go out and fight. I want to see how hard I can go."
As if he wanted to have a rebellious escape from life, Li Ning packed up all the valuables at home, invited all the friends who could still be called out to have a meal, locked the door, and took Gu Xiaowen to other provinces.
Life was not very comfortable, the two rented the cheapest house to save money, the summer was humid and the winter was windy, and occasionally the big cockroaches unique to the south could be seen flying past their eyes with their wings fluttering.
It's just that since Gu Xiaowen cried that night, she has never shed a tear because of the hardships of life. She learned to do nail art and makeup, and after spending time in various beauty salons and nail salons, she finally became I opened a small nail salon with one of my client sisters, and I can barely earn a few thousand yuan a month.
Li Ning went back to his old business and rented a small shop on the side of the street to sell accessories, but took the opportunity to find business opportunities that could make money in this big city.She just doesn't have much in her mind, but she has figured out some ways to do business by herself. The jewelry store is very popular with her, and the products in it gradually increase in categories. Finally, she simply changed the jewelry store to I opened a household goods store that sells everything.
Because the decoration is good and the quality of the goods is decent, the store gradually became popular on the Internet, and finally some partners came to the door admiringly, but after contacting Li Ning, she rejected all cooperation requests.
Taking this opportunity, Li Ning finally got to know the general manager of a global chain furniture and daily necessities brand company, and met the big boss, which was the beginning of a new starting point in Li Ning's life.
much later.
"Li Ning! Damn! Is this Xu Mianji!"
Gu Xiaowen's nail shop opened bigger and bigger, and finally turned herself into the boss, no longer having to spend time in a small shop doing manicures for one customer after another, she simply started to find connections to join some larger production crews to work as a makeup artist, The salary is high, and you can also see stars.
She came back from working in the last crew, and finally got a vacation. She was nestling in her and Li Ning's new home to catch up on dramas, but suddenly saw a promotional advertisement for an online drama. Look more and more familiar.
Li Ning is still looking at this month's sales report on the computer. It took her a lot of effort to make her small brand a small branch of that global chain brand, and she is currently working hard to become a big brand. The goal is moving forward, but she has not yet fulfilled her original wish of "as long as she is included in the branch, she can rest", and she is getting more and more tired.
She went to work in that brand's company by herself, and she owned a small workshop with more than a dozen people helping her run the small brand, so she could be regarded as a small boss.
Hearing Gu Xiaowen shout, she thought for three seconds, then put down what she was doing and went to take a look.
"Fuck, it's really her!"
"I went to search, and this bastard has become a star! I'm going to put on makeup for her!" Gu Xiaowen quickly searched for Xu Mianji's information on the Internet, and after reading this item, her mouth almost fell apart in surprise. up.
"I haven't heard from her for a long time. I didn't expect... to live so well now." Gu Xiaowen still couldn't hold back her tone, showing a little envy because of a sense of gap in her heart.
"Stars are not as glamorous as you think. You should know better than me what the life of the crew is like, right?" Li Ning pulled Gu Xiaowen's phone aside and pushed her on the sofa domineeringly, "Maybe , Xu Mianji's savings are not as much as mine."
"I don't know who it is, insisting on buying a new house. I probably only have a few dollars left in my pocket now?" Gu Xiaowen grabbed Li Ning's dishonest hand, and her eyes still fell on the extraordinarily bright and dazzling crystal above her head. The light made her eyes sting.
"But I finally realized my wish, and God can't make me suffer any longer, so good days are coming one after another."
It is true that Li Ning only has a small amount of money in her own pocket, but she is very satisfied. After so many years, Gu Xiaowen is still by her side, and she also has the first home with Gu Xiaowen, which is enough.
"Yes, I don't know what happened to Chi Yuwan and Xu Mianji. After all, I seem to be happier, hehe."
"Then you are so happy, do you want me to have sex|blessing too?" Li Ning counted, he hadn't had sex for some time.
"No, no, no, no..." Gu Xiaowen lifted Li Ning away with a palm, took out something from her bag in embarrassment, turned her head and blinked at Li Ning, "Husband—he has a wish——"
Li Ning thought she was going to buy something, so he leaned back a little confidently, "Say."
"I bought a new set of tools for manicure. It cost thousands of dollars. This is the most expensive bottle of nail polish, cat's eye green. May I help you do a manicure?"
"..."
Gu Xiaowen went straight over and pressed Li Ning's struggling body with her body, grabbed her arm, and put that rough hand in her palm.
"I paint my thumb first, then my index finger..."
Gu Xiaowen looked at her fair and tender hand, then at Li Ning's manly hand, her voice was still steady, but her eye circles were already red, and tears fell on the sofa.
Li Ning looked at Gu Xiaowen's busy back, and suddenly felt comfortable and satisfied.
She leaned forward, hugged the body that she couldn't hold enough, and rubbed it tiredly, "Let's go back to see grandma on Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Okay."
Those pasts that are gradually blurred in memory, no matter bitter or sweet, are all past after all.
The small county town is really small, each alley is a short one, and there are probably a few families scattered there, and you can see it when you open the door and close it-the alleys here can still hear echoes.
Li Ning's home is here. There is a corner at the entrance of the alley, and she can barely find a shaded corner in summer. There is her grandma's grocery stall.
Her family is suffering, but the father who hasn't been home for hundreds of years will send her back some living expenses on a monthly basis, which is quite a lot.
It's just that since I brought Gu Xiaowen home two years ago, it seems a little stretched to share the living expenses that are just enough for the two of them to live.
Fortunately, Li Ning has a brain and knows how to start a small business, so he can earn some small money back every month.
She had graduated from junior high school, so she immediately took over a jewelry store in front of the junior high school, and opened the shop herself.There is also a refrigerator at the entrance of the store, selling some cold drinks and popsicles, which can be regarded as part-time income for the store.
On this day, the weather was already hot, but the old fan was still creaking and could not bring in any cool breeze. She was annoyed when she saw a black varnished dog squatting in front of the store.
Li Ning, who always thinks his wife is bigger than the sky, the first reaction when he sees a new gadget is naturally to call his wife who is eating ice cream in the next door to come over and watch the dog.
The two were talking about what is so good about a native dog, and Li Ning was still wasting his saliva as he introduced the special breed of Chinese pastoral dog, but when he glanced at the spot where the native dog was squatting, he found another person standing beside it.
"Eh? Chi Yuwan?" Li Ning almost didn't think he was wrong.
But the person in front of him was undoubtedly Chi Yuwan, with his long ponytail leaning against his back, his face was like an eggplant beaten by frost, he was so excited that he couldn't see any joy.
This is different from Chi Yuwan who usually looks cheerful.
Gu Xiaowen secretly pinched Li Ning's waist, and walked up to Chi Yuwan first.
"Come to buy something?"
When Chi Yuwan saw Gu Xiaowen, she was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this was Li Ning's girlfriend. Then she thought about her own situation, and after a little comparison, she felt that the girl in front of her was so damn happy.
"I won't buy it." She was going out for a stroll, but suddenly she was thirsty and wanted to buy a bottle of water and a drink.
Seeing that her expression was not right, Li Ning leaned over to stop her, and opened his mouth, "Did that bastard Xu Mianji make you unhappy?"
The name that was making a fuss in his heart was uttered like this, and Chi Yuwan almost didn't shed tears at that moment.
"Just talk if you have something to say, even if we don't know each other very well, it's not so bad that we don't care about it."
So, Chi Yuwan was half coaxed and half tricked by Li Ning into the jewelry store.Gu Xiaowen is a very smart person, when she heard Xu Mianji's name, and then saw the girl in front of her who was troubled by love and bored by love, she probably understood the matter in her heart.
Li Ning and her seem to be acquaintances, but for Li Ning, this girl is the highest in her heart, and she is only a classmate.
There is no threat, but she still has emotional entanglements with people she knows, and the fire of gossip and sympathy in Gu Xiaowen's heart is burning.
The jewelry store is not big in the first place, and the three small shelves divided the narrow space so that only one person can pass by. Therefore, on the side next to the wall, Li Ning moved three stools and lined them up front and back. I gave it to my wife first.
"Sit down, it won't be comfortable to hold something in your heart, and we can help you figure out a solution if you tell us." The one who spoke was Gu Xiaowen, who didn't look much older than Chi Yuwan, but she spoke like an old lady look like.
Chi Yuwan hadn't reached the point where he could express his heart to anyone, he opened his mouth in a daze but didn't say a word, he held back for a while, then just grinned at Gu Xiaowen.
Gu Xiaowen turned around and asked Li Ning with her eyes. Li Ning answered with winks. Others couldn't understand, but the two of them could still communicate without barriers.
"It's okay if you don't say anything, we do gossip, but we don't want to force you to say anything." Gu Xiaowen put both palms on Chi Yuwan's shoulders, her eyes were sincere, "But I am a little more mature than you, and I know And more, if you are willing to trust me, I can really help you solve a lot of doubts."
Chi Yuwan naturally didn't believe what he said, just like the old god stick wearing sunglasses pretending to set up a stall on the street.
Li Ning was not that careful, saying that she was a girl, but she was raised by a boy since she was a child. In the final analysis, she was a little nervous. Seeing that the two of them had nothing to talk about, she stood up.
"Honey, why don't we close the store early today and treat her to a meal?" Li Ning waved his hand, getting rich, "The visitor is a customer, and he works with me, why don't we go to the restaurant today !"
Gu Xiaowen flew over with a sneaky glance, and the raised eyebrows were unanswered questions, "You are rich, aren't you?"
When Chi Yuwan saw the person who dared to fight with the grade group leader, he was scared for a second, and the change of expression did not show a comma, "But I remembered again! We bought a lot of vegetables at home today, and we still cook by ourselves Right! Grandma is old and can't walk very well, and the restaurant is indeed a long distance for her..."
Chi Yuwan pursed her lips and smiled. Her mother taught her not to stay at someone else's house for dinner. No matter how good the relationship is, it will be a nuisance.But she, who would always refuse, miraculously did not say the phrase "I will not go" at this moment, but followed Li Ning and the others back home obediently.
She couldn't explain why she suddenly became rude, probably because she really wanted to know how Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen got along.
What will the love between two girls look like in every moment of life.
Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen really did not let her down, they performed with all their heart...violent tenderness, indifference and tenderness, etc. There are ninety-nine and 81 kinds of love that are the most authentic.
"Hurry up and get a bowl to serve the food! My mother's food is almost burnt into rice crackers!!"
"Damn it! Li Ning, did your ears grow to fry pig ears? Give me water! The food is smoking!!"
"Li Ning!"
"Li Ning!!"
"Li! Ning!!"
"..." Chi Yuwan carefully helped Grandma Li out of the back room, pretending she didn't hear the roars.
"I'm used to yelling like this every day. It's not easy for the two of them. They have to go to school and worry about making money. When they come back at night and make a lot of noise, I don't mind them." Grandma Li saw that Chi Yuwan was cute, The old man's love for the child was also aroused, and he couldn't help holding her hand and chatting with her.
Chi Yuwan hesitated for a while, looked at the two people wandering around in the kitchen, and asked Grandma Li, "Grandma, you know they..."
Did you know they were actually lovers?It's...the kind of despised...homosexuality.
Grandma Li knew what she was asking, "Can I not know? Ningning has been like this since she was a child. I always treat her like a boy. Xiaowen is also a good girl. Both of them are good boys. As long as they don't commit murder or break the law, I don't care too much."
Chi Yuwan never knew that in the eyes of adults, homosexuality is not such a shameful existence.
I just don't know if other adults see and think the same way.
During the meal, Li Ning went to the street to pick up a few bottles of beer and came back. Gu Xiaowen stretched out her hand to touch it. After getting enough temperature, she found that what Li Ning bought was cold beer and gave her a rather appreciative look, "It's not bad."
"It's good that our Wenwen is happy, hehe."
Grandma Li looked at the two of them like a child, and shook her head helplessly.
It shouldn't be too late to go home at night. After dinner, Chi Yuwan wanted to say thank you and say goodbye. Unexpectedly, Gu Xiaowen said that he would send her off, so he sent her all the way to the intersection.
"My house is right up there. It's not far away. Don't give it away." Chi Yuwan smiled and pointed not far away. Her house is really on that street, and it's only a few alleys away from Li Ning's house. .
"I chased you out because I wanted to ask you something." Gu Xiaowen looked back to see if anyone was following her, and then quietly asked her in Chi Yuwan's ear, "You like Xu Mianji, right?"
Chi Yuwan's expression changed instantly.
She has never said to anyone, "The person I like is Xu Mianji, do you know?" It seems that in her heart, Xu Mianji and liking are two words that cannot be matched at all. It has become an unbearable and painful secret.
"You know? I thought I wasn't gay at first, but then something happened at home, I met Li Ning, and I suddenly thought, hey, I really like this person, to the point where it doesn't matter if she is a woman. "The smile on Gu Xiaowen's face seemed to be 100% warm, melting the last bit of indifference on Chi Yuwan's body at once.
"Gay..." She put these three words in her mouth, chewed them carefully for a while, and then spit them out again, "No, I'm not gay, I don't like girls."
"But you like Xu Mianji, Xu Mianji is a girl." Gu Xiaowen expressed the only clear thread in the mess in Chi Yuwan's heart.
Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen are undoubtedly the only sources of answers in Chi Yuwan's mind at the moment. She really has too many questions in her mind, but she has nowhere to ask them. Make her feel like she sees a ray of light.
In the summer vacation, I had nothing to do, so Chi Yuwan started to run to Li Ning and the others every day. After eating, I went to the store to buy more things to pay for the meal. Most of the time, I just stayed quietly Watching Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen bicker and show their affection.
She found that regardless of gender, no matter what kind of love, it seems to be the same in the end.
Two girls, like heterosexuals, will quarrel, fight coldly, hug, kiss, sweet, violent, and so on. It seems that they only have the appearance of love, and they can't see the discomfort caused by the same gender.
Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen didn't say anything clearly, but they had already taught Chi Yuwan a lot by their own personal teaching, and many principles were understood and accepted by her.
What really made Chi Yuwan feel at a loss was that it rained suddenly one night. Gu Xiaowen hadn't caught up with the rain when she went out to throw out the trash, but she was drenched in water on the way back.
Chi Yuwan only heard a scream, which sounded particularly terrifying in the rainy night.
Li Ning, who was sitting beside her, flew out like an arrow, and before Chi Yuwan had time to react, she realized that Grandma Li was about to get up and go out, so she quickly grabbed the old man, "Grandma, it's raining heavily, don't go out. "
"Xiaowen... Oh, Xiaowen..." Grandma Li's brows and eyes were full of worry, and she sighed several times as she watched the sky in the distance be lit up by a lightning bolt for a moment.
Chi Yuwan was still thinking, this is just an alley, it is impossible for Gu Xiaowen to have a car accident, the scream was probably due to some other reason.
Just as she was thinking, Li Ning had brought back the shivering Gu Xiaowen. Both of them were drenched. Gu Xiaowen seemed to have been frightened by something. She bit her lip and burrowed into Li Ning's arms, her body trembling. Not presentable.
Chi Yuwan didn't know why, so he could only stand aside and watch Li Ning close all the doors and windows, and then turn on the speaker with a rough sound quality, and the slightly noisy music came out, and the thunder outside could be heard in the room Already much smaller.
Li Ning was still coaxing in a low voice, and even Grandma Li was patting Gu Xiaowen on the back, and she slowly calmed down.
"I'm too embarrassed." Gu Xiaowen first looked up at Chi Yuwan, then at Li Ning, wiped her face and got up to go to the bathroom.
Li Ning was worried, and hurriedly opened the bathroom door and went in.
Chi Yuwan glanced at the thunderstorm outside, thinking that he might not be able to go home.
"Xiaowen, Ning Ning actually picked it up on the side of the road." Grandma Li saw the way Gu Xiaowen looked at Chi Yuwan just now, and knew that she did not reject Chi Yuwan, so she explained Chi Yuwan's confusion first.
"Picked... back?" Such a big man, how could he be picked up?
"She is from the town next door. Something happened to her parents, and her uncle and aunt stared at the apartment in her hand, trying to make trouble for her over and over again, and let her just fend for herself." Grandma Li said here, She frowned, as if she was sympathizing with Gu Xiaowen's past, "It was a small village, but Xiaowen's temper was very wild. She sold the apartment by herself. She wanted to leave with the money, but was chased by that uncle. When they arrived, the money was taken away, and the people were beaten half to death.”
The later story is bloody but legendary enough. Li Ning was completely bewildered by the beauty. Seeing the dirty Gu Xiaowen on the street, she couldn't walk. She wanted to help her back home and take care of her for a while. , I didn't expect to stay like this all the time.
Gu Xiaowen is also free and easy, and directly repays her with her body.
Chi Yuwan opened her mouth. Regarding Gu Xiaowen's past encounters, she neither experienced nor understood how she lived like this at such a young age.
But at the same time, she felt that it was great for Gu Xiaowen to meet Li Ning.
"Grandma Li, why did the jewelry store close so early today?" Chi Yuwan jumped a few steps and hid under the sun umbrella at Grandma Li's grocery stand.
Grandma Li was making cold cakes, she glanced at Chi Yuwan while she was busy, she still looked cheerful.
"They probably went back. Alas, children are ignorant after all. How can they know how to stay in the store for a few more hours in order to earn a few more dollars?" Grandma Li waved her hand and asked Chi Yuwan to find They said, "He must be at home, go and have a look."
Chi Yuwan now spends most of his time with Li Ning and the others, even if his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys hurt from being abused by their love every day, it will be all right.
The door of the house was not closed, and Chi Yuwan guessed that the two of them might have come back early to cook, but when he went to the kitchen to take a look, he found that there was still no one there.
She was about to go out to look for it, but suddenly heard movement in the inner bedroom.
"Damn, wait a minute..." It was Gu Xiaowen's voice.
"Honey, if you hold my hand again, I'll be fooled." This was Li Ning's voice.
Chi Yuwan frowned slightly, and quietly walked to the bedroom door, and found that the two of them didn't even close the bedroom door, leaving just a gap, so that Chi Yuwan could see everything inside clearly.
The two bodies were stacked together, and the entangled figure was projected onto the wall through the light, and Chi Yuwan clearly heard the sound of more and more rapid breathing.
"Slow down, slow down..." Gu Xiaowen grabbed one of Li Ning's arms, and suddenly frowned again, "No, it's faster, faster..."
"Baby, my arm is about to break, how can you hold it so tight?" Li Ning seemed to be biting Gu Xiaowen's ear, and what he said sounded ambiguous and confusing.
Chi Yuwan held his breath and immediately understood what the people inside were doing.
Suddenly Gu Xiaowen bowed her body up, and a suppressed voice came out of her lips. Li Ning laughed softly, and lowered her head to kiss Gu Xiaowen's lips.
"Do you want more? Huh?" When Li Ning spoke in this tone, he was like a smiling hooligan.
Before Gu Xiaowen could answer whether she wanted it or not, Chi Yuwan had already run away covering her face.
Two days later, Chi Yuwan forced himself to ignore those things, and went to the jewelry store again.
This time Gu Xiaowen went out to buy goods, and only Li Ning was in the store.
"Why haven't you been here for a few days?" Li Ning was still keeping accounts, and hooked a stool for Chi Yuwan with his foot, "Your mother wouldn't enroll you in cram school, would she?"
Thinking that Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen are already doing those intimate things like adults, and now they are still talking to themselves in such a tone as they are talking to children, Chi Yuwan feels a little uncomfortable.
"I'm wondering if I should continue to like Xu Mianji." She deliberately talked about a topic that she thought was more profound than the cram school.
"You can decide whether you like her or not? If you like her and she ignores you, then you should give up, but it's been so long, have you given up? No. So, instead of thinking about it , might as well think about how to catch her."
"She didn't ignore me!" Chi Yuwan still wanted to defend himself, "It's just a little more indifferent than I hoped, it doesn't mean anything..."
"Well, let's change the subject." Li Ning stopped writing and looked up at Chi Yuwan, "Now I can be sure that you like Xu Mianji, so can you accept that you are gay? Accept it Are you prepared for the consequences?"
"...Not yet, almost." Chi Yuwan didn't have much confidence, she was timid at first, but she had a big heart, and fell in love with Xu Mianji, who was unlikely to win at first glance.
"Come here, I'll teach you." Li Ning hooked his fingers at Chi Yuwan, "I won Xiaowen back then, not because of any kindness, but because of my real personal charm."
"Break, break..." So Gu Xiaowen was bent?
Li Ning then taught her how to pick up girls from face to method. Seeing Chi Yuwan's serious and serious face, she suddenly seemed to be teasing her.
"How much do you know about lesbians?" Li Ning rested his chin on his hands and looked at Chi Yuwan, "I'll just ask the simplest question, how to do it, do you know?"
"Do it..." Chi Yuwan almost yelled at you for being a big-headed ghost, and his face turned red in an instant.
Li Ning laughed, and realized that Chi Yuwan really didn't understand, so he got closer and whispered some erotic methods in her ear.
It's also a two-woman version.
After Chi Yuwan attended the class like this, his face was always red. When he left, he bumped into Gu Xiaowen who was just coming back, and almost fell to the ground with his legs limp.
"What's wrong with you?" If Gu Xiaowen didn't know Li Ning's temper, she would really think that Li Ning did something to Chi Yuwan.
"It's nothing." Chi Yuwan quickly shook his head, blushing and ran away again.
Gu Xiaowen entered the store carrying the goods, her eyes turned cold.
Li Ning sneezed inexplicably during the day, and when he looked up, he was almost hurt by a knife in the eye, and quickly dodged, "My wife, spare me!"
"What the hell did you do!"
"Eh?" Li Ning thought about it carefully, she really didn't do anything wrong.
Gu Xiaowen stepped on Li Ning's feet, which were only wearing slippers, "Chi Yuwan! She just left blushing! Did you tell someone something inappropriate for children?"
"This is basic introductory knowledge. She doesn't know anything. She just knows that she likes Xu Mianji so stupidly. How boring." Li Ning held back his grin, pulled Gu Xiaowen into his arms, bowed his head and kissed her her lips.
Gu Xiaowen couldn't stand Li Ning like this, so she relaxed and bit Li Ning lightly.
"Naughty." Li Ning chuckled, tilted his head slightly, and slowly embraced Gu Xiaowen's lips, as if he was eating a cherry, and deliberately made a sound.
"That's a rascal, you!" Gu Xiaowen threw away the things in her hand, rolled up her sleeves and started to counterattack.
Not long after, the scroll door was suddenly pulled down from inside.
In broad daylight, what makes people not even want to make money?
III.
"I'm here to change shifts." Gu Xiaowen was still wearing the doll dress in the tea shop. She walked from the school gate to the canteen and attracted a lot of strange eyes. It's just that she was too tired and had no strength to go. Take care of those.
Li Ning was paying someone else's bill, and when he glanced at Gu Xiaowen, his hair exploded in an instant, "How do you wear your clothes!"
There was only a black down jacket on top of the thin baby skirt. The temperature outside was low and the wind was strong, so she didn't even zip it up!
Abandoning the business in his hand, Li Ning turned directly from the counter, landed firmly in front of Gu Xiaowen, and quickly pulled the zipper for her from bottom to top, covering only her round eyes.
"Is it cold?" Li Ning grabbed Gu Xiaowen's hand, her hand is warm all year round, but Gu Xiaowen's hands and feet are cold when it is cold, like a frozen corpse.
"Go and eat quickly, I'll watch over here." Gu Xiaowen saw that there were still people waiting for the checkout in the store, so she pushed Li Ning's hand away, "If you don't go, the cafeteria will be closed."
Although the school is not a serious high school, it still has its own classes to teach. The control is not strict, but nonsense is not tolerated.Li Ning has been busy doing business every day since he opened this canteen. He would skip class whenever he could. Sometimes, in order to stay longer in the store and earn more money, it is common for him to only eat one meal a day.
Both of them are desperately trying to make money, but they just want to make life better at home. It would be best if grandma can take over the grocery stall and just stay at home to enjoy the rest of their lives.
Li Ning didn't say anything, and ran away after thinking about it. When he came back, he took two portions of rice in his hand. It was already a little cold, and there were not many dishes. It was probably left over from the cafeteria.
"Did you pay?" Gu Xiaowen glared at Li Ning without moving her chopsticks.
"Here! Two meals cost five yuan!" Li Ning took out two bottles of wine from the cabinet behind the table, which she warmed specially, and putting them in her arms could even warm her stomach.
"A meal in the cafeteria costs eight yuan even if it is one vegetarian and two meat dishes. Look here! Although there is no meat, it is all meat dishes anyway. You mentioned two, how could it be only five yuan!" Gu Xiaowen knew Li Ning is relying on this glib mouth to fool the aunt in the cafeteria again.
"Auntie said that she didn't want to take money at first, but I insisted on giving it. She said that she didn't have any food, so just give me something." Li Ning broke off the chopsticks and handed them to Gu Xiaowen, "I have them in my pocket. If it’s five yuan, just order it and give it to her.”
"Li Ning! No matter how poor we are, we can't take advantage of others like this!" Gu Xiaowen was about to cry in anger, but her eyes turned red for a moment, before being covered up by anger.
"Understood, it won't happen in the future." Li Ning lifted the cap of the wine bottle again, and the hippie smile on his face disappeared a lot. We look at the store so we can read some more books. It’s just that wages are also an expense, and I don’t think I can save as much as I can.”
Gu Xiaowen finally calmed down, raised her head and took a big gulp of wine, her eyes finally turned red quietly.
Too bitter, too tired.
People of the same age as them are still children, and they are raised by their parents. They are not in the scope of daily necessities to worry about. The biggest worries every day are studying and the people they like.
But life never seems to be kind to those who are already suffering. It will only make them suffer more and more, enjoy themselves in suffering, and regard poverty as a funny and humble joke.
"Wenwen, this kind of life won't last long, you trust me, okay?" Li Ning probably got used to being independent since she was a child, except that Grandma Li would spoil her and love her, and then met Gu Xiaowen, life That's all the sweetness in it, she got less, but she expected less.
"Can I cry?" asked the question, and tears fell into the bowl long ago.
"...Of course." Li Ning got up and walked around the small table, bent over and hugged the girl whose shoulders were shaking all the time, and a kiss landed on the top of her hair.
After being quiet for a few minutes, Gu Xiaowen suddenly pushed Li Ning away again, and turned away her face a little arrogantly. There were no traces of crying on her face, "There is nothing to cry about! My old lady is still a flower in the village." , It’s nothing to suffer a little, I believe we will live a good life one day! There will be a big house, no need to do housework, no need to cater to others, we will sit at home with grandma and count the money Play, go abroad for a trip if you are interested, if you can’t, it’s fine to stay in a big house every day!"
Li Ning burst out laughing, "Honey, you are so cute!"
"Can cuteness be sold for money?" Gu Xiaowen blinked.
"It depends on who you sell it to. If you sell it to me, I will buy it even if I lose all my money." Li Ning said with a smile, lowering his head and slowly covering those small lips.
after a long time.
When Li Ning finally saved enough money to buy a two-bedroom house, Grandma Li also took over the grocery stall and passed away.
After finishing Grandma Li's funeral in the small county, Li Ning and Gu Xiaowen stayed in the old house left by Grandma Li for two full days without eating or drinking, without saying a word or even moving.
Li Ning's parents didn't even come back for the funeral. If it weren't for the extra money in the account every month, Li Ning would even suspect that they were already dead.
"In this world, I really have nothing." Li Ning thought so, but this idea was instantly denied. She moved her stiff neck and looked at Gu Xiaowen next to her, "I still have Wenwen Well, this is my last bit of sweetness."
"In the future... where shall we go?" Gu Xiaowen has never been so desperate. Neither she nor Li Ning has been admitted to university. Apart from this house, they only have a few 10 yuan saved over the years.
"I won't buy a new house, and I won't sell this house. Let's stay here and go out to see the outside world, okay?" Li Ning rolled down from the sofa and climbed a few steps to get on his stomach. Gu Xiaowen's leg, "No matter what, I only have you now, and there is nothing to lose if I go out and fight. I want to see how hard I can go."
As if he wanted to have a rebellious escape from life, Li Ning packed up all the valuables at home, invited all the friends who could still be called out to have a meal, locked the door, and took Gu Xiaowen to other provinces.
Life was not very comfortable, the two rented the cheapest house to save money, the summer was humid and the winter was windy, and occasionally the big cockroaches unique to the south could be seen flying past their eyes with their wings fluttering.
It's just that since Gu Xiaowen cried that night, she has never shed a tear because of the hardships of life. She learned to do nail art and makeup, and after spending time in various beauty salons and nail salons, she finally became I opened a small nail salon with one of my client sisters, and I can barely earn a few thousand yuan a month.
Li Ning went back to his old business and rented a small shop on the side of the street to sell accessories, but took the opportunity to find business opportunities that could make money in this big city.She just doesn't have much in her mind, but she has figured out some ways to do business by herself. The jewelry store is very popular with her, and the products in it gradually increase in categories. Finally, she simply changed the jewelry store to I opened a household goods store that sells everything.
Because the decoration is good and the quality of the goods is decent, the store gradually became popular on the Internet, and finally some partners came to the door admiringly, but after contacting Li Ning, she rejected all cooperation requests.
Taking this opportunity, Li Ning finally got to know the general manager of a global chain furniture and daily necessities brand company, and met the big boss, which was the beginning of a new starting point in Li Ning's life.
much later.
"Li Ning! Damn! Is this Xu Mianji!"
Gu Xiaowen's nail shop opened bigger and bigger, and finally turned herself into the boss, no longer having to spend time in a small shop doing manicures for one customer after another, she simply started to find connections to join some larger production crews to work as a makeup artist, The salary is high, and you can also see stars.
She came back from working in the last crew, and finally got a vacation. She was nestling in her and Li Ning's new home to catch up on dramas, but suddenly saw a promotional advertisement for an online drama. Look more and more familiar.
Li Ning is still looking at this month's sales report on the computer. It took her a lot of effort to make her small brand a small branch of that global chain brand, and she is currently working hard to become a big brand. The goal is moving forward, but she has not yet fulfilled her original wish of "as long as she is included in the branch, she can rest", and she is getting more and more tired.
She went to work in that brand's company by herself, and she owned a small workshop with more than a dozen people helping her run the small brand, so she could be regarded as a small boss.
Hearing Gu Xiaowen shout, she thought for three seconds, then put down what she was doing and went to take a look.
"Fuck, it's really her!"
"I went to search, and this bastard has become a star! I'm going to put on makeup for her!" Gu Xiaowen quickly searched for Xu Mianji's information on the Internet, and after reading this item, her mouth almost fell apart in surprise. up.
"I haven't heard from her for a long time. I didn't expect... to live so well now." Gu Xiaowen still couldn't hold back her tone, showing a little envy because of a sense of gap in her heart.
"Stars are not as glamorous as you think. You should know better than me what the life of the crew is like, right?" Li Ning pulled Gu Xiaowen's phone aside and pushed her on the sofa domineeringly, "Maybe , Xu Mianji's savings are not as much as mine."
"I don't know who it is, insisting on buying a new house. I probably only have a few dollars left in my pocket now?" Gu Xiaowen grabbed Li Ning's dishonest hand, and her eyes still fell on the extraordinarily bright and dazzling crystal above her head. The light made her eyes sting.
"But I finally realized my wish, and God can't make me suffer any longer, so good days are coming one after another."
It is true that Li Ning only has a small amount of money in her own pocket, but she is very satisfied. After so many years, Gu Xiaowen is still by her side, and she also has the first home with Gu Xiaowen, which is enough.
"Yes, I don't know what happened to Chi Yuwan and Xu Mianji. After all, I seem to be happier, hehe."
"Then you are so happy, do you want me to have sex|blessing too?" Li Ning counted, he hadn't had sex for some time.
"No, no, no, no..." Gu Xiaowen lifted Li Ning away with a palm, took out something from her bag in embarrassment, turned her head and blinked at Li Ning, "Husband—he has a wish——"
Li Ning thought she was going to buy something, so he leaned back a little confidently, "Say."
"I bought a new set of tools for manicure. It cost thousands of dollars. This is the most expensive bottle of nail polish, cat's eye green. May I help you do a manicure?"
"..."
Gu Xiaowen went straight over and pressed Li Ning's struggling body with her body, grabbed her arm, and put that rough hand in her palm.
"I paint my thumb first, then my index finger..."
Gu Xiaowen looked at her fair and tender hand, then at Li Ning's manly hand, her voice was still steady, but her eye circles were already red, and tears fell on the sofa.
Li Ning looked at Gu Xiaowen's busy back, and suddenly felt comfortable and satisfied.
She leaned forward, hugged the body that she couldn't hold enough, and rubbed it tiredly, "Let's go back to see grandma on Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Okay."
Those pasts that are gradually blurred in memory, no matter bitter or sweet, are all past after all.
