Double Bracelets

The days can always pass quickly in the busy.It was winter in a blink of an eye.The cold light rain fell on the Bund, which made Jiang Xijie feel like this was how she lived for the past six months.It's humid and cold, the streets are full of mud, and the sky is so dark that people don't want to look at it, it's all like this.

Thinking about it, Wang Jiyue didn't send her a single letter, only a simple message, saying that everything is fine, don't worry.Even if the sky is full of colorful clouds every day, or even the sky is full of gods and Buddhas descending into the world, she doesn't want to see it.It's rare not to work overtime today, and I don't know where to go if I don't work overtime.Colleagues came over to congratulate her, but she just nodded perfunctorily with a helpless smile.In just a few months, she was promoted from an intern to a full-time employee, and even the capital letters on the top of her head felt a crisis—her English is so good, better than everyone else, and she is smart and decent, all she owes is experience.The two small classes above liked her as much as she liked, and when the big class from Hong Kong came over that day, I was even more surprised that there were such staff in Shanghai.No one would believe the bonus of not having a family background, but it is a bonus item, not a compulsory question.

But no one believed it.It is enough to be qualified to make everyone jealous.

She didn't intend to think about what the colleagues around her were thinking, of course she didn't care.She has been working overtime for a month, and today she finally doesn't have to go to the cotton mill in Yangshupu.Although I really wanted to go, it was torture to go.When she goes there, she can pass by the commune that she used to go to every weekend. Even at the corner of the street, she can see the overlapping shadows of the past four years, and see Wang Jiyue and herself walking on the road in different costumes throughout the year.If you want to see it, you will get hurt if you look at it, but you still want to see it.

Now it's all right, if you don't go, you have nothing to do, what should you do at night?

In the past six months, she has been busy with work, and she basically doesn't go home for dinner. When she goes back, she just eats a few bites of supper.Recently, Jiang Xize forced her to fill up because she was really thin.Her second brother was really annoyed, it wasn't enough to fill one duck, there was another one!Not one by one!

do not wanna go Home.Don't want to go home for dinner.It wasn't that there was something wrong with the family, or that there was something wrong with the house and relatives, she just didn't want to go back, she just wanted to wander around.Going home, facing the four walls of the room, her thoughts floated to the wall and hit back again, she couldn't stand it.The psychedelic world of feasting and feasting, the world of constant stimulation, can make her relax, forget, and temporarily put her caring as not caring.

Sitting blankly in the office, she didn't see her boss's boss passing by. The gentle white man smiled kindly and asked her, why don't you leave?It's rare to have a rest today, you've worked hard recently.Jiang Xijie had a stiff smile on her face, and she was slandering in her heart, you go, if you don't go, just say one more word to me, and the one who greets me in the future will be Daoziyan.Who knows that the other party really won't leave, and added, in fact, you don't have financial pressure, so go have a drink when you're tired, and it's not far from the general meeting.

After thinking for a moment, I called home and said that I would go back later tonight.In fact, a quick promotion is also a good thing, and the family should be very happy for her.She herself didn't feel happy, and she still walked towards the headquarters building with a gloomy face.Walking in the door, there were many foreigners drinking and chatting, and I couldn't help being surprised to see her dressed as a staff member.Neither embarrassed nor emotional, she walked to an open area of ​​the long bar and sat down.

Suddenly remembered the time when Kitterlin brought her here, it was the first time.I remember drinking wine.Thinking about it, it’s not far away, it’s like yesterday, and it’s also a very, very distant yesterday.It's like going east at dusk, with the sun setting on the horizon behind you.

After drinking a whole bottle of wine, go.Went home and slept really well.Again next week.So much so that on Friday of the second week, when Jiang Xijie came home drunk, at ten o'clock in the evening, only his second brother was waiting for her.

"You came back so late again. Even later than me." Jiang Xijie opened her drunken eyes, distracted, but she was already superficial and knew that someone was calling her, it was a man, from the tone, it should be the second brother.But I can't think of more.To be honest, she thought she only drank one bottle tonight, or a bottle and a half, and the second bottle should be less than half, because she knew that she had been drunk for a week, and the bartender knew her already, and was happy to save the wine for her—save it It will be drunk the next day.In fact, she drank two and a half bottles.She was so drunk that she forgot that the second bottle of brandy she drank today was brandy, she forgot that she hadn’t eaten anything in the afternoon because she was busy all day, she drank on an empty stomach, and forgot that she always drank alcohol and it ruined her sleep, and she needed to drink more to sleep Smells like the first one.The only thing she remembered was that when she was at work, she had a bad idea, and then she stuck to it to the end.

She felt that she was broken in love.She felt that she was about to become Wang Baochuan, about to become Heloise, about to become Ophelia, about to become the unlucky and infatuated girl who was cruelly and helplessly abandoned by her sweetheart in all the tragic novels.As soon as Wang Jiyue left and there was no news, what did he do wrong?

Why didn't you give me any news when you went?After Wang Jiyue left, Jiang Xijie asked all kinds of people to bring her a message, and she almost missed Wang Chanyue who was far away in Beiping—it might be useless—besides, Wang Haopeng, Wang Haoxiu, and Xu who stayed at home Mom, the ones who came round and round to find relatives and acquaintances were also the families of the daughters who went to Hong Kong; every night after emptying the messy thoughts in her head like arrow clusters in the night wind of Shanghai, she returned home, returned to the room, Turn on a lonely lamp and write a letter to Wang Jiyue.

At first she wondered if Wang Jiyue was still in shock and resistance, and was angry with her, so she began to write letters to apologize and explain; but she couldn't wait for the expected reply from Wang Jiyue, and she began to worry about Wang Jiyue before she left. The various manifestations of Wang Jiyue are just appearances. Wang Jiyue was really tired of her confession, so she began to write letters to redeem her, expressing her worries inappropriately; finally she began to get angry at Wang Jiyue's deception when she left, and wanted to question her but said no. Exiting, I wanted to wait for Wang Jiyue's reply before making any plans, but Wang Jiyue became determined after eating the weight, and didn't say a word.Now she started to hate Wang Jiyue. Of course, hating Wang Jiyue might as well hate herself.

I should have known not to say anything.Not saying anything seems to be unable to change the fact that Wang Jiyue is going to Hong Kong, and staying and waiting without saying anything seems to be just another kind of torture.But it shouldn't be as painful as it is now.Thinking of this, a wry smile crept up her cheeks, and she giggled while standing at the stairs.Zhao's mother was so scared that she thought she was going crazy.

Jiang Xize didn't wait for her on purpose, he was actually working overtime.But he couldn't stay at the garrison headquarters. In order to behave normally, he had no choice but to go home and guard.As a result, the younger sister who drank every day came back after drinking like this. He felt that he could not sit idly by.You can't drink like this, and what's the point of drinking?He can see that this is a typical appearance of being trapped by love, but who are you for?

Since I was a child, I have never seen you dying for any boy. My brother, I have always suspected that there is no boy in the world who can hold you down.Thinking about it this way, I was suddenly surprised by how much I had identified my sister for so many years.

"Yes, you also have a day of drunken madness. I don't know that drinking is bad for your brain!" With such a harsh mouth, Jiang Xize walked over to support Jiang Xijie, and asked Mama Zhao to make her some hangover soup.Seeing that she was the closest second brother, Jiang Xijie suddenly burst into tears, hugged her brother tightly and would not let go, hanging on her body with her whole body.The cry was so loud that it alarmed Fu Yuanying who had been reading upstairs. "What's the matter?" Fu Yuanying went downstairs and supported her husband hanging on her body. She was as limp as a dead pig, and howled like a sister-in-law who killed a pig. The two husband and wife drove her to the dining room together, so as not to disturb other people who were already asleep. .

"I don't know..." Jiang Xize said helplessly to his wife while coaxing, "After all these days of getting drunk every night, the co-author finally got drunk enough, should I worry?" He touched Jiang Xijie's forehead, "No burn. Just drunk. Sigh." Fu Yuanying pulled the chair over and sat beside Jiang Xijie, pulling the sister-in-law who was crying so hard that she didn't know what she was talking about, into her arms, "like this, can you carry her on your back?" Jiang Xize thought for a while , Just when she was about to say "Yes, but what if she vomits", Jiang Xijie retched.

have to.

Zhao's mother thinks that Miss is really worried tonight, and I still have to find a bucket for you to vomit.

The next morning, Saturday, cleared up.Jiang Xijie was dizzy and fell asleep until nine o'clock in the morning, but woke up instead, feeling nauseous.I ran to the toilet quickly and vomited again, and finally vomited completely.She felt a little pain in the back of her head. She didn't know that her head would hurt after drinking too much alcohol.Little did she know that she was so drunk last night that she didn't have any strength in her body, and was making trouble, her second brother kept knocking her unconscious and carried her upstairs.In the process of going upstairs, he bumped his head in several places, causing Jiang Xize to be scolded by his wife a lot.

After vomiting, feeling uncomfortable, ready to go downstairs.Staggering to the stairs, he met Fu Yuanying. "Are you awake?" Jiang Xijie hadn't answered yet. Jiang Xize was the first to hear the noise when she was downstairs all night and woke up early, "Stinky girl, are you awake?"

Fu Yuanying led her downstairs.Jiang Xize was sitting in the living room reading the newspaper, with a cup of coffee in his hand. He couldn't take his eyes off, and kept talking: "When you wake up, go eat quickly. The Jidi porridge {63} specially ordered is the best for hangover {64}. You I don’t know how dirty and smelly you made the kitchen last night. If Yuanying’s quick response and Zhao’s mother’s quick hands and feet were not there, you would definitely spit us all over. What are you drinking? If you can’t drink those foreign wines, don’t drink them. You Have you started drinking like this before you are old enough to socialize? Do you want to die and pay it back, me,"

Fu Yuanying winked at him and told him to shut up.Noisy like a duck early in the morning.

Jiang Xijie didn't have the energy to speak, so she sat down to drink porridge with a sick face.Zhao's mother is very knowledgeable, she told Jiang Xize last night that the young lady will wake up in a bad mood tomorrow morning, and it's just right to drink the first porridge.Jiang Xize got up early in the morning and went directly to buy it for the whole family.When I came back, I found Zhao Ma was frying deep-fried dough sticks in a good mood. When the porridge came, she smashed the fresh fried dough sticks into pieces and put them in the porridge.

What Jiang Xijie faced at the moment was such a typical Cantonese breakfast.It's steaming, but it doesn't burn your mouth, the portion is just right, and pepper is added.Jiang Xijie dreamed of countless separations at night, and her whole body was in despair. At this moment, she suddenly returned to the warmth of the world, and couldn't help saying thank you to Mama Zhao.Zhao Ma smiled at her and patted her on the shoulder lovingly.

She dreamed that she was out with her second elder brother and second sister-in-law, boating on the West Lake, and suddenly saw a painting boat.Just as he was about to ask who was on board, the boat floated towards them.Taking a closer look, it was Wang Jiyue who was having a drink with a man whose face could not be seen.She smiled beautifully, no longer the slightly pale and dignified one before, but charming.When she looked away as if on fire, her elder brother and sister-in-law were gone.

It was dawn when I woke up, and I was lying in bed alone, feeling so cold.

Fu Yuanying originally stayed with her in the restaurant, but he couldn't stay with her for long. She also had to go out to accompany her sister-in-law and nephew to the hospital.Jiang Xize let her go first, walked into the restaurant by himself, dismissed Zhao Ma, and left the two brothers and sisters behind.

He watched his sister slowly finish the bowl of porridge spoon by spoon with soft eyes.Handed her a glass of warm water and spoke calmly,

"Who did you owe the romantic debt?" "...No." "No? There are four big characters trapped by love on your face." "It's okay... I'm fine..." You can't even say it How about it.Taboo emotions should be left to the secret room of my heart. "Could it be that you like Miss Wang? Now that she's gone, are you looking for death?"

Jiang Xijie was startled, and stared straight into her brother's eyes.But the elder brother's eyes are so gentle and calm.

The author has something to say:

{63}The traditional famous food of the Han nationality in Guangdong area, a kind of Cantonese porridge, is actually pig offal porridge.

{64} To be honest, this is an extremely real life experience, and it is quite effective.

Too busy to fly.Strive for more weekends.
