first love again

Chapter 36

Because of Jiang Yifan's words, Xu Miao was in a very good mood all day, and couldn't help laughing out loud when helping grandma clean up. Fortunately, grandma didn't notice, otherwise she probably thought he was stupid.

After helping grandma clean up thoroughly, after pasting the Spring Festival couplets, Xu Miao went to tidy up her home again, bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and have a good new year.

On the morning of New Year's Eve, Xu Miao went to find his father's posthumous photo, and placed it gently on the stage. Looking at the person in the photo, it took him a long time to let out a sigh that seemed to be nothing.

Xu Miao usually didn't put his father's photo in the living room. He didn't want to and didn't want to. It was just Chinese New Year, and Chinese New Year meant reunion. How could it be called Chinese New Year without family members.

Let him come out to get some air.

Grandma cooked noodles and called Xu Miao downstairs to eat.

Xu Miao responded loudly, then put down the rag, reached out and touched his father's face in the photo, he slightly curved his lips, and whispered, "Dad, happy new year."

Xu Miao's father has never been a competent parent. He doesn't care at all about Xu Miao's test scores, health, and whether he is full. He doesn't care about these things. He only has himself in his heart. Xu Miao left a large amount of bad debts.

Xu Miao used to hate him, but with the passage of time, this hatred gradually faded away.

In his heart, his father was his only reliance when he was a child, even if his father did not return home, as long as he was still alive.Because his mother left without saying goodbye, Xu Miao was too afraid that his father would leave when he was a child. He didn't want to become an orphan, and he didn't like this kind of loneliness very much.

Moreover, now that my father has been dead for so many years, what's the point of fighting with the dead?

This annoying emotion would appear almost every New Year's Eve. Xu Miao closed the door, looked up at the photo on the stage, and twitched the corners of his mouth to calm down before going downstairs.

Grandma made a big pot of noodles and some poached eggs, put them in Xu Miao's bowl, and told him to eat more.

I usually don’t eat at noon on New Year’s Eve, so I have to eat more in the morning. I start cooking the New Year’s Eve dinner at about three or four o’clock in the evening, and I can eat it at seven or eight o’clock in the evening. After the New Year’s Eve dinner, I will watch the Spring Festival Gala.

In the past few years, Xu Miao was in charge of the New Year's Eve dinner, and Granny helped. Although there were only two people, because it was Chinese New Year, they still cooked more than ten dishes.

After breakfast, Xu Miao stayed at Grandma's house all the time, with a blanket on her lap, chatting with Grandma while waiting for the time to cook New Year's Eve dinner.

There is still snow outside, but the snow is almost destroyed, and it looks dirty instead.

It took too long to pass the time, and the drowsiness gradually hit. Xu Miao talked to grandma, went upstairs to go back to sleep, and came down to cook when it was time.

However, as soon as he lay down on the bed, Jiang Yifan suddenly sent a message, breaking Xu Miao's sleepiness all at once.

"doing what?"

Xu Miao regained her energy and replied, "I just wanted to sleep for a while, but I'm not sleepy now, what about you?"

Jiang Yifan: "Stay in the room."

After sending the message, he asked again, "Are you wearing new clothes?"

Xu Miao: "...I'm old enough to still wear new clothes."

Jiang Yifan: "No matter how old you are, you have to wear new clothes during the New Year."

Xu Miao suppressed a smile and replied, "I don't wear them. My family has never had such a tradition."

Jiang Yifan: "Now we have."

When Xu Miao saw the news, she was taken aback for a while, and replied stupidly, "Huh?"

After a long time, Jiang Yifan replied to the message, although it was only a short sentence, it made Xu Miao's nose sour.

"I buy for you."

Xu Miao directly made a video call, and when he saw Jiang Yifan, he raised a smiley face, "Happy New Year, baby."

Seeing him, Jiang Yifan softened his brows and eyes, "Happy New Year."

Xu Miao leaned against the head of the bed and kept looking at the person on the other end of the video. He didn't even realize that his eyes were full of affection and love.

"Are you wearing new clothes? I want to see." Xu Miao looked at him without blinking.

Jiang Yifan: "No clothes."

Xu Miao was dumbfounded, and said speechlessly: "Didn't you say that you have to wear new clothes for the New Year? Why didn't you wear them?"

"I'll wear it tomorrow." Jiang Yifan sat on the chair, because he didn't wear glasses and was invisible, he was very close to the camera, "I happen to come to see you tomorrow."

Xu Miao understood, nodded obediently, "Oh."

He looked at Jiang Yifan, he was too close, and with sufficient light, he could see the sharp eyelashes of the other party clearly, he looked almost obsessively, and couldn't help sighing softly: "Baby, you are so beautiful. "

Hearing his murmur, Jiang Yifan couldn't help but curled his lips, his voice softened a lot, "You look good too."

Xu Miao's voice was still very soft, as if he was talking to himself, or as if he was trapped in his own world, and he didn't intend to express the most sincere emotion, "I'm so lucky..."

Jiang Yifan: "Huh?"

"Now I feel like I'm dreaming every day." Xu Miao looked at him obsessively, with deep love written in his eyes, "I'm having a very happy dream."

I love him so much, I'm lucky to be with him.

These fortunes seem to exist only in dreams.

If the dream wakes up, please don't wake him up.

Let him be immersed in a dream forever, and die in a dream.

After chatting with Jiang Yifan for a long time, seeing that the time was approaching, Xu Miao had no choice but to hang up the video and go downstairs to cook the New Year's Eve dinner.

After several hours, Xu Miao finally finished a table of meals. He was so tired that he couldn't lift his back straight.

He just wore a sweater, took a few dishes upstairs, gently put them on the counter, and said to his father with a smile: "I made it again, eat it."

It was getting late, and there was the faint sound of fireworks blooming.

Xu Miao and grandma sat down to eat New Year's Eve dinner together, and the sound of fireworks outside the window added to the excitement.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xu Miao gave grandma a big red envelope, which contained 8000 yuan.

He watched the Spring Festival Gala with his grandma. Grandma's ears are not so good, so the TV was turned on very loudly. Xu Miao watched the Spring Festival Gala, and her phone rang several times.

Friends sent him New Year's greetings. In the festive voice, Xu Miao lowered her head, with a smile on her lips, and replied to the messages one by one.

When seeing Ye Na's blessing, Xu Miao was happy, and replied, "Since when did Brother Ye become so enthusiastic? Didn't he just say Happy New Year in previous years?"

Ye Na replied quickly, saying: "The past is the past, and the present is the present."

Without thinking about it, Xu Miao also wished her a happy new year.

After replying in a circle, Xu Miao did not receive Jiang Yifan's blessing. He curled his lips, why didn't he send a message? All the money has given him blessings.

He thought about it, and was afraid that the other party said in the afternoon chat that he would not wish any more blessings now, so he decided to take the initiative to send a message, "Happy New Year, baby^_^"

Jiang Yifan did not return.

Xu Miao understood that he should still be having the New Year's Eve dinner.

He didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to watch TV while holding his mobile phone.

While watching the sketch, the phone vibrated suddenly, and it was Jiang Yifan who opened the phone.

Xu Miao subconsciously looked at her grandmother, who was wearing reading glasses and was sitting next to her watching TV intently.

He didn't say hello to his grandma, he quietly came to the balcony with his mobile phone in his hands, and then answered the call.

It was extremely cold on the balcony. Xu Miao heard the sound of fireworks coming from a distance, and his teeth were trembling from the cold air, "Why did you call?"

Jiang Yifan's voice came clearly, deep in the cold night, "I want to hear your voice."

"Didn't you watch the video in the afternoon?" Xu Miao smiled with his eyes bent, and scolded, "Insatiable greed."

After he finished speaking, he asked Jiang Yifan, "What are you doing?"

Jiang Yifan whispered: "Chat with you on the balcony."

Xu Miao's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "It's a coincidence, I'm also on the balcony. It's cold outside, you should wear more clothes."

Jiang Yifan said "hmm" and said, "I heard the sound of fireworks, are you setting off fireworks?"

Xu Miao nodded, "That's right, it's probably released by the previous families."

The fireworks were so close that although they looked beautiful, they were also loud, completely covering Jiang Yifan's voice.

Xu Miao clicked helplessly, walked out of the balcony with her mobile phone in her arms, walked out of the room, and stood at the stairs to chat.

He still didn't bother to put on his coat, and his voice was shaking from the cold in a sweater.

Jiang Yifan noticed the trembling in his voice, and frowned unconsciously, "Xiao Xu, you seem to be cold?"

Xu Miao said "ah", took a breath, and smiled mischievously: "It's a bit cold, I didn't bother to put on my coat just now."

Jiang Yifan's voice suddenly sank, with a bit of coercion, "Go and put it on."

"Okay." Xu Miao muttered, "Don't hang up."

Xu Miao went back to the room and put on her coat, talked to her grandma, then went upstairs to her room and concentrated on talking with Jiang Yifan on the phone.

The sound of fireworks came from outside the window from time to time, blending with Jiang Yifan's voice.

Holding the hot phone, Xu Miao felt that this year's New Year's Eve was the most lively and satisfying.

The two chatted for a long time, and Xu Miao's cell phone was almost dead, so he quickly recharged it and continued to make calls while charging.

Although he heard that it was dangerous to make a phone call while charging, he couldn't control it. He didn't want to hang up the phone or sleep, so he wanted to continue chatting with Jiang Yifan.

Feeling the temperature of the phone getting hotter and hotter, Xu Miao was a little scared, fearing that it would explode, and finally said goodbye to Jiang Yifan: "I can't chat anymore, it feels like the phone is going to explode, are you sleepy?"

Jiang Yifan: "Not yet, go to bed first, see you tomorrow."

Xu Miao quickly asked: "When will we meet tomorrow? Give me a specific time."

Jiang Yifan asked without answering, "When do you want?"

Xu Miao thought for a while, and said cheekily: "Morning, seven or eight o'clock? Everyone gets up early during Chinese New Year..."

Jiang Yifan sneered, and said, "Okay."

At the end of this long chat, Xu Miao looked at the time, and it was almost morning.

He hurried to wash up, tidy up and go to bed.

Xu Miao covered her with the quilt and closed her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were still curled up, and she didn't care at all even if her smile froze.

He turned off the light, and the fireworks were blooming outside the window, and the colorful lights illuminated the dark room and also shone into his dream.

Before going to sleep, he thought in a daze.

It's great, I can see Jiang Yifan when I wake up.
