the other side of the fireworks

"Xu An, do you have money?"

The sleepy Xu An sat up suddenly, and Xia Fengshu beside her was lying on her side with his back to her. Xu An wondered if she said what he just heard. "You ask me? Do you have money?"

"Yes." Xia Fengshu turned around, "Do you have any?"

"How much?" Xu An was worried, she was worried that Xia Fengshu would deliberately make a difficult test for her.

"Thirty thousand."

"When and for what?"

"There is an answer from the submission. They are willing to publish it for me, and they will give me the ISBN, but I have to pay the production cost myself."

"Really!" Xu An squatted on the bed like a monkey, "You are so calm, you just told me now, don't worry, I will take care of the money."

"What are you doing!"

"Don't worry about it, just wait and read the book, my Xia Fengshu is going to become a writer!"

"Thirty thousand is not a small amount."

"Blame me for not having the habit of saving money, otherwise..." Xu An was a little annoyed, but soon beamed with joy, "Trust me, I can do it."

There is only more than 4000 yuan on the card, and grandma's living expenses will arrive on time every month, and the day after tomorrow will arrive in the account, but 1000 yuan is a drop in the bucket for 3 yuan, Xu An doesn't expect it at all.Her source of income is her grandma, but she can't ask for [-] yuan in Xia Fengshu's name, and she can't open her mouth to ask for it.

Xu An's principle stuck her in a very small grid, looking around, she thought of Lan Weiqing.

Even if I borrowed it with the intention of repaying it, when I faced it, I still couldn't open my mouth as if I was facing an eight-level gale.Lan Weiqing said, "What are you trying to say awkwardly?"

"The most difficult thing for people to talk about is those few things."

"It should not be a show of love, it should not be a loan."

Xu An's stupid smile acquiesced to the latter, and Lan Weiqing was slightly startled, "Are you short of money? How can a girl with a good family background, good character, no bad habits and no greed for vanity be short of money?"

"You just want to know why I borrow money, don't you?"

"It's human nature to ask."

As soon as Xu An mentioned Xia Fengshu's name, Lan Weiqing patted her thigh and said, "I knew it was her."

"Why are you so excited!" Xu An was taken aback.

"I'm not excited, listen to you." Lan Weiqing suppressed her excitement and waited for Xu An's next words.

It took Xu An ten seconds to speak clearly, but Lan Weiqing was silent for two minutes, and then said in a low tone: "2 is not a small amount, you trust her that much?"

Xu An endured it and didn't get angry, "It's between me and you that I borrow money from you. Why do you question her?"

"Don't be angry, we are friends, let me analyze it for you..."

"No need." Xu An resolutely pushed Lan Weiqing's hand away.

"Well, I have a big mouth, so I can say whatever I want. Even if it's for Xia Fengshu's sake, 3 yuan, which publishing house, is not reliable."

"Just tell me, do you have any money?"

"Yes, but not that much, five thousand, would you like it?"

Underestimating difficulties will turn what has been said into bragging. When the cowhide is blown, the embarrassment without a thick skin cannot resist it.

Xia Fengshu didn't ask about it, she didn't seem to care much about it, she spent most of her time with Xu An eating, and she had already officially reported to the bank and started her six-month job training.She was assigned to a small business office closest to the head office building, with only eight people.It is not difficult to deal with the training content with Xia Fengshu's wisdom, but the difficulty is that she has no interest in these, and unlike the supermarket cashier, she must think deeply to complete the current job, and it is impossible to look at those numbers mechanically, and then she has There are several certificates to take, and it is too easy to leave the pile of things in front of Xu An. It is as simple as a high school student doing math problems for elementary school students. However, Xia Fengshu's mathematical concepts are still in elementary school. She is a primary school student. Primary school homework, not serious thinking is not enough.

And Xu An is climbing a mountain of [-] yuan, where can he find money?All she could think about was Dad.Just when she had this idea, her father called to ask her about her work. After Xu An answered a few words briefly, he said that she needed money, [-].

Ever since she followed her grandma, she never asked her father for money, and her father was a little surprised, "Why are you asking me for money? Are you having trouble with your grandma?"

"I borrowed it."

"You've made your grandma angry, you fucking girl, you don't know that your grandma is in poor health!"

"Dad, don't interrupt, I want to borrow 2 yuan from you."

"What are you doing with so much money? Does your grandma know?"

"I don't want her to know, so I borrowed it from you."

"If you don't say what, can I get you money?"

"I'm not doing bad things."

"Then you have to tell me, twenty thousand, not two hundred."

"Okay, pretend I didn't say it." Xu An was angry and wanted to hang up the phone. She was angry because she couldn't tell Xia Fengshu, why couldn't she say such a legitimate reason.

"Don't lose face with me, okay, Dad will support you, come back and get the money."

"Why do you want to go back, you can just remit it to my card."

"Isn't it a loan? You have to write an IOU."

Xu An was taken aback, angry and funny, "Dad, you want me to write you an IOU?"

"That's right, make everything clearer. Even if you don't pay me back in the future, I can still tell your grandma with an IOU. It's not that I didn't support you."

"Okay, I'll write an IOU and send it back to you."

"No, it must be written in person."

"Dad, why are you doing this?"

Dad paused for two seconds on the other end of the phone and said, "I have something to ask you to help me, you come back."

"what's up?"

"Father's business matter, Lao He and I have cooperated in business. It has been more than two years. If you help me see if there is any discrepancy in the accounts, I always feel something is wrong."

"Dad, you asked me to be an auditor."

"The company's current big accountant is her daughter, can I be more careful? Come back and help Dad check it out."

"Just call me about it."

"I am your father."

Xu An didn't tell Xia Fengshu that she was going home, and they ate beef and rice noodles at noon. Xia Fengshu was neatly dressed in a bank uniform. Work gave her a kind of burnout, and she couldn't face things without thinking. She didn't talk about it. They didn't seem to have much to talk about at work, and Xu An didn't plan to talk about going home. She didn't want to be known to get the money in this way.Perhaps, Xia Fengshu just said it casually, and didn't have much hope for the so-called publication.Xu An's determination to accomplish this seems to have become a confession of his feelings.Carrying a lot of their love needs some proof to fit their lives tightly.

"This dress is a bit loose, doesn't it fit?"

"It's better like this, it's more comfortable." Xia Fengshu puffed out his chest, but the clothes still didn't show any curves.

"I won't sleep with you tonight."

"Huh?" Xia Fengshu was slightly startled, his dark eyes reflected Xu An's face.

"Not used to it?"

"Have you talked to your aunt?"

"How do you know that my aunt and I are awkward."

"It's not difficult to guess. I lived here for four consecutive days, and I don't have a phone number at home." Xia Fengshu lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes instantly covered them.

Xu An's lips pursed slightly, a little coquettish and helpless, and after thinking about it, he said, "You don't even ask me."

"I want to ask, but... I'm afraid that it's me." Xia Fengshu fiddled with the chopsticks, rubbing his heart tenderly.

Xu An lightly touched Xia Fengshu's with his chopsticks, and the chopsticks met with a slight force, attracting each other like positive and negative poles, "It's not what you think."

After leaving the restaurant, the midday sun was struggling to cover the earth through the clouds. Xu An didn't want to say goodbye solemnly, but Xia Fengshu just waved to her, and then they went their separate ways. One thought about seeing each other at night, and the other Then naively think that we can see each other in a few days.

How ridiculous and childish those persistence and stubbornness are in the eyes of fate.There is a kind of unreachableness like Kuafu chasing after the sun.Even if that courage and confidence are said to be virtues, it is a terrible pain to be ruthlessly cut by reality in a short life.

Xu An called her aunt at the train station, and it was her uncle who answered the call. She said a few words, and the uncle said: "Xiao An, my aunt's house is always your home. Come back early, your aunt misses you."

Xu An smiled wryly, of course she knew that her aunt missed her.

The air-conditioned car was as cold as a big refrigerator. Xu An found her seat and sat down, feeling bored. She wanted to send a text message to Xia Fengshu, but she was not sure what to say. She had to tell her that she was going back to her hometown.

The transformation of life is a few points, the arrangement of the points is a straight line, your road is straight, and the arrangement of the points is curved, then the road is curved.Whenever faced with a lot of numbers and tables, the word forced to make a living always appeared in Xia Fengshu's mind.Her ideal is to be able to send 1000 yuan home every month to pay off her mother's debts and live.Calculating the salary, she can save a little.

It feels so good to finally have my feet on the ground.

It is not surprising to meet Tong Zhan Xia Fengshu again, there are always meetings under the same big roof, and the young assistant to the president visits a small business office with only eight people, which is to arouse the strong attention of the small leaders.

A woman will pay attention to her.Xia Fengshu's indifference is actually out of place. The world is like this. The mainstream does not necessarily mean the right, but it must be crowding.It is not easy to pretend to be strangers to people you know well, and you need a city government.

Xia Fengshu did it, and it wasn't easy for her to do it too.Fortunately, Tong Zhan only appeared occasionally, not face to face day and night, let the past go, this is Xia Fengshu's childish and beautiful hope.
