The thorny bird that does not want to fall to the ground

I couldn't tell how fast time passed. When I woke up, it was empty. Nian Xiaofu opened his eyes and squinted them. He couldn't help sighing, looking at the mobile phone aside, thinking, she, do the math, Haven't contacted for a week.

Getting up from the cold bed, cold water is the easiest to evoke confused emotions.Looking at the water in the pot, it was tumbling, and when I opened the package of noodles, I realized that this was the last package.

After I was full, I had too much free time. Wearing a thick coat, I saw the scarf still hanging on the side, paused my hand, and closed the wardrobe again, thinking it would be better to put it there.

Stepping on the stairs, step by step, feels like walking on the air.There is snow everywhere in the community, walking step by step.It was probably because it was too cold outside, and there were almost no people there. After being outside for a long time, the tip of my nose was so cold that I couldn't feel it.

I went to the supermarket to buy noodles. When I saw the hot pot base, I thought that it had been a long time since I had hot pot with her.I picked a pack of extra spicy ones, thinking, anyway, I haven’t thought about what to eat on Chinese New Year’s Day.She simply went to a few nearby supermarkets and vegetable markets because she had nothing to do. These places were all brought by her. Unexpectedly, she would come by herself while walking.

Carrying two big bags of things, stepping on the snow carefully, entered the community.A group of children dressed in garden balls passed by like a ball. Nian Xiaofu watched with the corner of his mouth bent and let the group of children go in first. There were voices of adults behind him. When they reached the door, Nian Xiaofu It turned out that it was a relative of the grandma's house next door. He opened the door, and the old grandma's voice sounded behind his ears. They all came over, be careful, don't knock.

Close the door, change shoes, carry things into the kitchen, tidy up, boil water, and make tea.Because I got used to it, I bought the one she used to buy without any hassle. Holding the cup, I sat on the sofa and took out the cell phone in my pocket. There was no text message or call, it was hers.

On New Year's Eve, looking at the hot hot pot, which was bright red and covered with a layer of red oil, she couldn't help but think that if she ate it, she would definitely have a stomachache.

I started eating at 6:30, but it didn't end until after 10 o'clock.Mouth is hot and numb, I drank several glasses of water, but it didn't help, my stomach is too distended, standing, sitting, and lying down are uncomfortable, Nian Xiaofu is a little worried, it won't be like being stretched like this .

After 11 o'clock, the phone rang, and it was Li Ling's.

"Happy New Year!"

"Yo, it's rare to be so direct, unlike you, Xiaofu."

"Well, I'm very full."

"Haha, I understand, Mu Li just fed you too much, don't wait for me to come to you next time, and directly evolve from a dwarf to a fat man."

"After the Chinese New Year, I'll come to you two to hang out together."

"No, I'm going to look for a job, Mu Li, she's busy."

"Why did you say that Mu Li is busy with her again? What? Did she treat you badly?"

"No, no, she's fine," she couldn't be better, her eyes were warm again.

A sigh came from the other side, saying, "Xiaofu, don't, you've wronged yourself."

"I'm not wronged at all, really" wronged, these two words are like pulling threads, pulling, concealing emotions, when hearing these two words, tears, hot and rolling down.

The suppressed choking sound was still noticed by Li Ling, who probably frightened Li Ling, and kept comforting him for a while, Nian Xiaofu tried to calm his tone and said, "Li Ling, I'm fine, I'm fine, really. "

"Okay, okay, I know, I believe, don't cry."

"Then you, don't ask Mu Li, okay?"

"Okay, I won't ask. I'll wait for you to feel better before telling me, okay?"

"kindness."

Li Ling changed the topic and talked about many things, until he was about to hang up the phone, he was still comforting himself, his nose was blocked, he was sitting on the sofa with a tissue, and when he hung up, he said, "Thank you, Li Ling. "

It was quiet over there, and after two or three seconds, a sentence came from there, "What's the matter, when you are stable in Jiangcheng, I will definitely go to eat and live for nothing."

"Well, I may work here at home."

I didn't expect Li Ling to listen so quietly, and finally said, "That's fine, you can also accompany me to eat, chat, and be a little follower, it's not bad."

"it is good."

"Happy New Year, Xiaofu,"

"kindness."

"Why does it sound like you've become stupid again, so good, well, go to bed early, you know?"

"kindness."

"Oh, you said me, why did I become your nanny again."

"Okay, let me tell you idiot again, my IQ will also drop."

"Yes, Li Ling."

"Well? What?"

"Am I very useless, really stupid, stupid."

"No, Xiao Fu, it's great if you can do this. If you become like others, I won't be your babysitter, and I don't get paid."

"really?"

"Of course, don't think too much, especially don't think badly. This time, I'll let you hang up first."

"Okay. Bye bye."

"bye."

After I hung up the phone, my stomach didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.Packing things, cleaning, and finally washing, nestled in the bed, the mobile phone in his hand vibrated a few times, but it wasn't hers.It was Xiao Ran's message.

Happy New Year, I hope that in your new year, you can find a suitable job. By the way, I have also been transferred to the hospital near my home. If you need help, you can find me. You don't have to be so polite.

Quickly pointing fingers, looking back at him, happy new year, thank you for your help, but there should be no help for the time being.

It was 12 o'clock, and there was no message from her. Nian Xiaofu was scared. Calling her would be considered disturbing her. She was lying on her side with her legs curled up, flipping through the previous messages with her fingers, so forget it.Without her own interruption, she will be happy and not so tired, and, maybe, she doesn't want to contact herself anymore.

With the sound of firecrackers, Li Ling came suddenly during the Lantern Festival.Nian Xiaofu was not prepared at all, he stood there in a daze, and finally was dragged by Li Ling to go shopping, where he ate a lot of food, but Li Ling didn't mention a word about Mu Li.

In the evening, Li Ling still wanted to live here, but Nian Xiaofu refused.After all, this day is the Lantern Festival and we want to spend it with my family, Nian Xiaofu doesn't want Li Ling to be like this.In the end, Li Ling had no other choice and didn't stay. He just stuffed a big bag of things into his hands and said, "These are gifts from me, you can't refuse them."

Until seeing her go far away in the car, Nian Xiaofu was carrying a big bag of things. When she got home, when she tidied up her things, most of them were food, or daily necessities. Nian Xiaofu knew that Li Ling was worried Myself, money is not enough.

After tidying up his emotions, Nian Xiaofu held a pen and paper and silently calculated, water and electricity bills, gas bills, and daily living expenses, at most delayed for more than a month, grandma's passbook was about to be used up.

Submitting resumes everywhere, shuttling back and forth on various buses, a week later, Nian Xiaofu found his first official job.Although he has no money for the time being, his restless mind has finally calmed down a little.

When he woke up in the morning, Nian Xiaofu couldn't believe that he was able to find a job before he was starved to death.Fingers wipe the condensed mist of the window, clear sight, gray sky, the leaves below seem to have begun to grow new shoots.It's just that when I looked at the people passing by below, I saw someone who seemed to be her but didn't look like her at all, not only because of her short hair, but also because she was only wearing a thin coat in this weather, it was impossible for her to be in such a weather , only wear such a little.

His footsteps were faster than his thoughts, as if he was participating in a race in high school, desperately looking around, there were still people coming, but there was no her, or someone like her.My lungs felt like vomiting because of the sudden inhalation of cold air, and my footsteps were as heavy as lead. When I returned to the door, I found that the door was still open.

After drinking a glass of frothed milk, holding the phone and closing the door again with the key, I thought, maybe it was an illusion.However, Nian Xiaofu, who was sitting on the bus, still couldn't stop thinking about her, wanted to talk to her, listen to her voice, imagine kissing her like before, just once, it's okay.But he didn't have the courage to call her, thinking, before she left, she was angry and didn't look like she said anything. She made Nian Xiaofu afraid, afraid that she would hate herself, so, I can't, I can't bother her anymore, at least, I can't be like that. A burden-like existence, that would drag her down.

Therefore, Nian Xiaofu is safe.

At the beginning of work, unfamiliar people and affairs always make Xiaofu a little timid. After getting used to it, it will always be better, especially when there are a group of lively students around him, who will always add to the serious work of teachers. Lots of fun.

A few months, compared to a year or two years, is really pitiful. With a salary, life is relatively much better, but when her birthday is approaching, Nian Xiaofu still thinks, go shopping, In this way, if you see a suitable one, you may send it anonymously, guessing that she should not know.

Li Ling came here often when he was free, and even encouraged him all the time, saying that he would buy a TV at home, it would be lively and a good way to pass the time.After a few months, Nian Xiaofu was persuaded and agreed.But it turns out that the TV is not used to watch TV, but to play games, and Li Ling often has a reason to rely on it.

Xiao Ran, who was treated as a coolie by the side, didn't complain at all.It was an accident to meet Xiao Ran. I never thought that his nephew was in that school. After that, he often went to school. Li Ling saw Xiao Ran when he went to the school to find someone, so Xiao Ran was taken as a coolie and summoned. come here.

The three of them got along so well that Nian Xiaofu wondered whether time had stopped in place or hadn't passed all the time.When washing the dishes, it's okay for Li Ling to stand aside and not help. She takes pictures with her mobile phone, especially likes to take pictures of people other than her.Xiao Ran seemed to be used to it, but Nian Xiaofu didn't get used to it very much, and insisted on not giving him any positive feedback. Li Ling was making fun of himself and didn't care.

Summer is in full bloom, and her birthday is getting closer and closer. After choosing several places, I finally choose to give her a watch. After thinking about it, I add a note typed on the computer, simple, happy birthday.I don't think she would hate it. It's simple and meticulous. She has been buying things. She has repeatedly discussed with the courier. When she came out, she still thought about it, hoping to be on time.
