【057】

The next day was the plane at 10:30, Jiang Bai didn't wait for the alarm clock to ring at six o'clock, and got up with a pair of panda eyes.

After washing his eyes with his eyes closed, he went to call Gu Xu, only to find that Gu Xu was already downstairs waiting to leave.

Jiang Bai: "..."

The door of Jiang Jiachen's room was closed tightly. I don't know if he went out last night and didn't come back or didn't get up.

Lu Jitian counted the days for the holidays, stayed in bed for the first time, rushed downstairs with his luggage early in the morning, passed through the living room like the wind, and came back a few seconds later, staring at the suitcase at Gu Xu's feet with eyes wide open. He stared out: "Brother, are you going on a long trip?"

At first, Lu Jitian also invited Gu Xu back to his home for the festival, but Gu Xu refused every time.

Now he actually wants to travel far away?

Lu Jitian rubbed his eyes back and forth several times.

Gu Xu was replying to Su Ge's message, without looking up: "Yes."

Su Ge said on WeChat that he will fly back to China at night, and whether he wants to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

Gu Xu refused with three words. While Su Ge was typing in WeChat, Lu Jitian rushed into the living room with a few strides and looked at the two 28-inch suitcases magically: "Brother, where are you going? There are so many luggages."

Footsteps sounded at the top of the stairs, Gu Xu's eyelids moved, and he said lightly, "Chuanxi."

Lu Jitian felt that the word Chuanxi was very familiar, and when Jiang Bai's figure appeared on the first floor, he remembered it.

Western Sichuan is Jiang Bai's hometown!

No matter how slow Lu Jitian was, he now realized that Gu Xu was going home with Jiang Bai for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

He felt a little uncomfortable. On the one hand, he invited Gu Xu so many times, but Gu Xu didn't go to his house. On the other hand, he thought of Jiang Bai's hometown to play, but Jiang Bai only invited Gu Xu.

Everyone is in the same group, isn't this discriminatory treatment!Lu Jitian muttered unhappily: "Brother, you guys are so disrespectful, don't bring me when we play together."

Gu Xu's double standard didn't happen once or twice, he didn't fluctuate, but Jiang Bai asked: "Aren't you going home for a reunion dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Lu Jitian curled his lips: "Eat it every year, it doesn't matter if you eat one less meal."

Just as he was talking, a call came in, and it was his mother who asked him what time he would arrive, and the king crab was ready to cook at any time.

"..." Lu Jitian swallowed, feeling that this meal is still worth eating, he and Jiang Baigu Xu waved their hands, carrying the suitcases and ran out, saying while running, "I'll cook when I'm almost here!"

boom!

The door closed with his voice.

Jiang Bai withdrew his gaze, the band-aid on the bridge of his nose was removed, and now there is a small hole in the bridge of the nose, the corners of his eyes are also a little red, and there are two conspicuous black spots hanging under his eyes, the whole person looks a little wilted.

Gu Xu asked him: "Did you sleep well?"

Jiang Bai nodded: "A little insomnia." Without continuing, he carried a bag, glanced at Gu Xu's two large suitcases, and pulled one of them, "Let's go, the taxi is at the door."

After walking a few steps, the suitcase was taken back by Gu Xu, and with a light on his shoulders, Gu Xu hung Jiang Bai's backpack on the suitcase and pulled it out.

Jiang Bai thought to himself that he just didn't sleep well, and it wasn't that he lacked strength, but he didn't mind that Gu Xu was so active in working as a coolie.

The taxi was waiting outside, and it was an elderly male driver, neither of them were wearing masks.

Jiang Bai suffered from insomnia at night, but he became sleepy shortly after getting in the car, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Sure enough, the driver didn't know them, and when the car drove onto Airport Avenue, he asked, "You guys go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Gu Xu responded lightly, and the driver immediately opened up the conversation: "It's good to go home, a warm meal with the family is better than anything else."

The driver then said a few more words, but Gu Xu didn't return, and the car became quiet again.

Gu Xu turned his head and his eyes fell on the sleeping young man. He probably came out wearing short sleeves before he woke up in the morning. He took off his coat and gently put it on him.

Jiang Bai was woken up by Gu Xu. He opened his eyelids tiredly, looked outside, and found that he was at the airport.

Just as he was about to get out of the car, Gu Xu nodded his lips. He subconsciously raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth. After wiping for a long time, there was nothing. Then he realized that Gu Xu was reminding him to wear a mask.

Jiang Bai fumbled in his bag for a long time, took out his mask and put it on casually, not caring about his messy hair, opened the door and got in the car.

During the whole process, Gu Xu picked up the ticket, Gu Xu checked the luggage, Jiang Bai half-opened his eyes, like a tail, followed behind Gu Xu without a soul, until after the security check, Jiang Bai was still not awake.

They bought tickets late, there was no business class, and during the National Day, the economy class, which is usually not full, was also full. They were seated in the back, and there were endless noises from children along the way.

After finally getting to the seat, a fat middle-aged man was sitting near the aisle. When he saw Gu Xu and Jiang Bai coming, he quickly got up to make way for him. He was still tall, about the same size as Gu Xu. security door.

Jiang Bai felt that the moment the man got up, the plane trembled.

Gu Xu asked Jiang Bai to sit by the window, and he sat in the middle.Then the middle-aged man also sat back down. Although he worked hard to compress his size, he was too fat, and his arms inevitably affected Gu Xu.

"I'm sorry." The middle-aged man apologized.

Gu Xu shook his head and didn't care.But Jiang Bai was a little concerned, he said to Gu Xu, "Let's change positions."

There is only a little space in the middle, and it would be uncomfortable for another girl to sit. He is shorter than Gu Xu and has a smaller frame. It should be more reasonable for him to sit in the middle.

Gu Xu directly covered Jiang Bai's head with the coming blanket, and then his faint voice came from the side: "Sleep."

Jiang Bai opened his mouth slightly, and finally gave up trying to persuade Gu Xu. Now his face was covered with a thin blanket, and his vision was dim. Like last night, he stared at the ceiling and couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

There was a mess in my head, for a while it was the flashing neon lights outside the car window, and for a while it was the tenderness in the man's eyes.

But this time, Jiang Bai didn't suffer from insomnia anymore, his eyelids gradually fell, and before the plane started taxiing, he fell into darkness.

When I woke up again, the plane was also taxiing, but it had already taxied to another airport.

On the radio was the sweet voice of the stewardess, announcing that the surface temperature in western Sichuan was 21 and it was raining.

It's not cold, but it's still a bit cold in short sleeves, especially when it's raining.

The backpack was not checked in. After the plane stopped and the man in the middle outside left, Jiang Bai took out the backpack from the luggage rack, unzipped it and rummaged through it for a long time, dazed.

Fluffy short sleeves.

Jiang Bai: "..."

He was really out of shape yesterday, he packed his luggage and felt lonely.

Forget it.

Jiang Bai put on his backpack again, and casually scratched his messy sleeping hair. Just as he was about to go out, Gu Xu threw a thin coat into his arms: "Wear mine."

Jiang Bai wants to ask me to wear yours, so are you not cold?Then he looked up and saw that Gu Xu was wearing a long-sleeved shirt, he swallowed his words again, and put on his coat silently.

I don't know if I don't wear it, but when I put on Jiang Bai, I realized that Gu Xu's clothes were a whole size too big.

Obviously, on weekdays, they don't look much different.

Jiang Bai was thinking wildly, and got off the plane after Gu Xu. It was still raining heavily outside, and the corridor bridge was pounding.

As soon as Jiang Bai's cell phone was turned on, a call came in, it was his father's call.

"Son, have you got off the plane?" Jiang Chaowen's voice was intermittent with the sound of rain, "Your second aunt and third aunt suddenly want to go back to our hometown with us, and I won't come to pick you up and your friends if we can't fit in the car. Don't bother going home, just call a car at the airport..."

"What's the name of the car?" Jiang Yunfen snatched the phone before she finished speaking, and Jiang Yunfen pretended to be calm, "Do you remember the Uncle Liu who lives across from your grandfather? His daughter also arrived at the airport at this time, you should still remember Sister Liu, right? You played together when you were young, your Uncle Liu's car is at the airport now, you should give them a ride."

Knowing mother Mo Ruozi, Jiang Bai knew that today's incident was caused by Jiang Yunfen as soon as he heard it. He was blushing and breathless: "No need, Mom, my friend and I have already boarded the car."

As soon as he got out of the covered bridge, Gu Xuwenyan took a look at Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai continued: "The phone is almost out of battery, so hang up first." He quickly hung up the phone.

Then he turned around and said to Gu Xu: "My mother is looking for trouble, and she won't stop unless she makes up a reason."

In front of Jiang Yunfen, even though Jiang Bai has lived for more than 400 years, he still has an unconscious childishness. The layer of maturity and indifference wrapped around him seems to have crumbled a little bit when he set foot on the land of western Sichuan.

Gu Xu didn't speak, and when he really called the car back to Jiang Bai's hometown, he asked, "What are you looking for?"

Jiang Bai spat out two words: "Blind date."

Gu Xu was silent.

After a long time, he said, "You are only 20."

"Probably because I have a cousin..." Jiang Bai felt that the word "brother" was extremely hot now, so he changed his words, "The marriage of a relative at 20 gave her unrealistic fantasies."

The light in Gu Xu's eyes was dim: "Don't talk about your mother, when do you plan to get married?"

Jiang Bai curled his lips and smiled: "I'll think about this issue after I'm over 20 years old."

It continued to rain outside the window, looking out, the whole world was hazy, Gu Xu looked away and stopped talking.

Two hours later, the car stopped in front of an old house. It was raining in the evening, and it was dark all around. The street lights were shrouded in rain, and it seemed to be covered with a layer of white mist. I could only vaguely see several cars parked in front of the house. car, Jiang Bai and Gu Xu said: "You wait in the car first, I'll get an umbrella..."

"Uncle Eight!" A childish voice interrupted him, and a little red umbrella ran closer and closer in the rain.

When I got closer, I saw that it was a little girl of seven or eight years old, wearing a sweater, jeans, rain boots, and two braids. She was carved in pink and jade, so cute.

Jiang Yutong was holding a ridiculously big black umbrella in her hand, and she was here to deliver an umbrella to Jiang Bai, and when she saw another person getting out of the car, she blinked her big eyes and looked at Gu Xu for a while, then shouted crisply: "Hello, brother! "

Jiang Bai wanted to correct her, so he had to call Uncle Gu Xu, but after thinking about it, it would be better if Gu Xu was a generation lower than him.

He has always been bitter about calling him brother Gu Xu when he was drunk.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xu corrected Jiang Yutong: "I am uncle."

Jiang Yutong was clever, and kept passing her little red umbrella to Gu Xu's hand: "Yeah, uncle, I'll give you an umbrella! My eighth uncle's umbrella is so dark that it doesn't look good!"

Jiang Bai: "..."

Gu Xu looked at the little girl whose eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Jiang Bai, and picked her up with one hand, but did not take her little red umbrella.Instead, he opened the black umbrella to cover Jiang Bai's head: "Go get the luggage."

From a distance, it looks like a family of three returning from a trip.

On the way back to the old house, Jiang Yutong had to pass through a courtyard. On the way, Jiang Yutong kept talking about her fun at school, and said that her teacher was more beautiful than the aunt who came today.

Jiang Bai's footsteps paused slightly, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

No way.

Did the mother call someone home?
