Trivial Skin of Rebirth

Ye Jiawen saw a travel product on the Internet for a trip to Honshu, Japan, which lasted for six days, including board and lodging, and air tickets, and only cost 6000 yuan per person.Since the earthquake in Japan and the leakage of the nuclear power plant, the prices of all Japanese tourism products have been greatly reduced, which can be half of the price compared with the previous two years, which is indeed very affordable.

Ye Jiawen was a little moved, and began to calculate the small coffers of him and Xiang Qingyun in his mind.

He and Xiang Qingyun have been together for 15 years. Although they are not very rich, they lived frugally for so many years, and they were lucky enough to buy a house before the house price skyrocketed in [-], although the mortgage has not been repaid yet. After that, I bought the car with a loan in the first two years. It was just a Volkswagen POLO, but it cost half the price of the car to buy a license plate.There is a house and a car, so life is considered prosperous.And their son Xiang Xiaolong has just passed the most hated rebellious middle school, and he is going to go to high school this year. His academic performance is good, and he is becoming more and more sensible.Although there is no woman in this family of three, Ye Jiawen is very satisfied now because of this many years of pressure from all walks of life.He doesn't have very high requirements for living conditions. Like now, it is already a happy life if all hardships are rewarded, and we know each other and stay together.

Xiang Xiaolong performed exceptionally well in the high school entrance examination, and was admitted by the best city key middle school in the district, so Ye Jiawen and Xiang Qingyun said they would reward him and let him make his own request.Because he has always liked watching Japanese anime, he proposed to go to Japan to play, so Ye Jiawen went online to find travel products.

After comparing the products of several companies, and investigating the word-of-mouth of several companies in relevant forums, Ye Jiawen finally finalized a product from Green Boat Company. 6156 yuan per person, individual items need to be paid by themselves, and there will definitely be some other expenses, including gifts to buy, etc. Add up three people, save a little, [-] should be enough.

Because they just bought a car the year before last, their small family didn't have much savings, about [-] to [-] yuan.If you take out [-] yuan for a trip, you will have [-] yuan left. In case of a minor illness or disaster, it is enough for emergency use.

So that afternoon, Ye Jiawen called the travel agency, asked a lot of related matters, asked them to send a lot of travel-related documents, and copied all the documents into the USB flash drive when he got off work, and prepared to go home later. Continue to study slowly.

Ye Jiawen was in a good mood throughout the day. When he thought that he and Xiang Qingyun now had a house, a car, a son, and spare money to travel abroad, his heart was bubbling with beauty, and he wanted to dance around in place.On the way home, he met an old beggar who had been squatting on the same road for three years. For the first time in three years, he put a ten-yuan note into the beggar's bowl, and showed a sweet smile to the beggar. Smile.

He bought half a roast chicken and some cold vegetables and went home. When he got home, there was no one in the house, so he put the vegetables in the refrigerator and started to tidy up the room.After he knelt on the ground and wiped every inch of the living room floor with a rag, Xiang Xiaolong came back sweaty with a basketball in his arms—the high school entrance examination had just ended, and he had survived the first major difficulty in his life. Play crazy.

Ye Jiawen got up from the ground, wiped the sweat from his brow, and smiled at him, "Are you hungry? There is roast chicken in the refrigerator. If you're hungry, go and heat it up."

Xiang Xiaolong took off his dirty clothes and shoes at the entrance, put on clean slippers, walked into the room, washed his hands, went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and shouted: "Ah! Couple's lung slices! Jellyfish head ! Dad, you bought so many vegetables!"

Ye Jiawen happily claimed the credit: "It's all what you like to eat!"

Xiang Xiaolong happily ran into the bathroom, took a shower in two or three minutes, and took the rag from Ye Jiawen: "Dad, I'll wipe the floor, you go to rest."

Ye Jiawen said, "Aren't you hungry after playing golf all day? Eat something first if you're hungry."

Xiang Xiaolong shook his head: "Let's eat together when Daddy comes back."

After a while, Xiang Qingyun came back.Ye Jiawen had already told him that he had bought some cooked food, so he only bought a catty of green vegetables and two tomatoes and came back. As soon as he entered the door, he changed his shoes and ran into the kitchen. , Ye Jiawen wiped the table and set the tableware outside, served three bowls of rice to Xiaolong, and then the meal was served.

The meal was very hearty, and three people made four dishes and one soup.I don't know why, but Ye Jiawen's emotions are very rich today. Ever since he decided to go on a trip, he feels extremely happy in everything he does. Now seeing a table of food and two men, one big and one small, gobbling it up beside him, he is so happy that he feels dizzy , white light flashed in front of the two eyes, and the body was light and fluffy.He thought to himself, it's really terrible, it turns out that people can be so happy that they will faint.

Ye Jiawen said to Xiang Xiaolong: "Xiaolong, my dad checked the itineraries of several travel agencies on the Internet today." After a pause, he deliberately sold out, and grinned: "This winter vacation, I will take you to Japan!"

Xiang Xiaolong was stunned, his eyes immediately brightened, "Wow! Really?"

Ye Jiawen smiled and said: "Really. You did so well in the high school entrance examination. This is a reward from your dad and I. In the past two days, you should go to the Academic Affairs Office of your new school and ask the school to open it for you. Proof, it is needed when going abroad for a visa.”

Xiang Xiaolong nodded again and again: "Okay!"

Ye Jiawen looked at Xiang Qingyun, but he didn't expect that Xiang Qingyun's face was not happy, but worried instead.Ye Jiawen poked him with his elbow: "What's the matter, you don't want to go?"

Shaking his head to Qingyun, he smiled at them: "Go, why don't you go, Xiaolong hasn't been abroad yet, right?"

Ye Jiawen looked at him suspiciously, and instinctively told him that something was wrong with Xiang Qingyun, but at this moment, the worry on Xiang Qingyun's face had disappeared, and he became as happy as they were, so he had no choice but to give up.

After dinner, Xiang Xiaolong went back to the room to surf the Internet, Xiang Qingyun washed the dishes, and went out to watch TV with Ye Jiawen.When the commercial was being released, Xiang Qingyun leaned against Ye Jiawen and asked him, "How much does the tour group cost per person?"

Ye Jiawen said: "It's more than 6000 per person. If we count other expenses, let's save a little. After all, it won't exceed [-]."

"Oh, more than 2, that's okay." Xiang Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Jiawen moved his butt, leaned into his arms, took his arms and went around behind her, letting him hug her.He happily told him about his plan: "It's July now, and I plan to sign up for a tour in August, so I have to hurry up. I will study it in detail in the next two days. I will pay next week. What about the visa?" It takes time to prepare. Hey, you traveled to Japan a few months ago, is your visa still valid?"

Xiang Qingyun nodded: "My visa has not expired yet."

Ye Jiawen smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask the travel agency if they can save the visa fee. But the travel agencies are very dark now, so I asked them today if we can have two beds for the three of us to sleep in one room, saving one As for the bed price, the person from the travel agency told me that even if I give up the bed, I can’t get the money back. It’s so dark!”

Xiang Qingyun nodded, not knowing what to say.

Ye Jiawen said: "Our school is also on holiday in August. Hey, it's good to work in school. It's free. When you're old, you still have winter and summer vacations. You haven't asked for leave for several years. Go and ask for annual leave. , take it easy!"

Xiang Qingyun turned his head and kissed his forehead: "Okay."

That night, Ye Jiawen was exceptionally enthusiastic and uncharacteristically took the initiative to do a full set.In fact, they haven't done a full set for a long time, because Ye Jiawen finds it annoying, and doing a full set will take a few days of energy, so their intimacy usually ends with touching each other, unless they come when they are particularly interested A set of oral sex.Because of this, the old couple was very passionate when doing it. At the last moment, Ye Jiawen's whole body convulsed comfortably, and he lost consciousness for more than ten seconds.

When he woke up, he saw Xiang Qingyun with a nervous expression on his face, he held him tightly and said, "You scared me to death, why did you faint all of a sudden?"

Ye Jiawen buried her face in his shoulder embarrassingly: "I'm old, too passionate, my body can't take it."

Xiang Qingyun hugged him and kissed him desperately, and carried him into the bathroom to wash him just like ten years ago, and changed the bed sheets on his own initiative before lying down and falling asleep with his arms around him.Xiang Qingyun usually fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow, but Ye Jiawen's sleep was not so good, so after Xiang Qingyun started snoring, his mind was still very clear.

He stretched out his fingers, and traced Xiang Qingyun's facial features with his fingertips by the faint light coming in from the window.Xiang Qingyun's facial features are very three-dimensional. When Ye Jiawen saw him for the first time, he thought he was of mixed race. Later, he realized that he was just an ordinary farmer's son. It was purely due to a genetic mutation that he could grow up like this.When he was young, Ye Jiawen thought that he wouldn't like old men, and he couldn't imagine what he would do if he became greasy and had a big belly when he got older.But now, both he and Xiang Qingyun are almost 40 years old, and they have almost entered the ranks of old men, but they still love each other so much.Although the skin is not so tight, although there are wrinkles around the eyes, but in his eyes, Xiang Qingyun is still the most handsome man in the world.He could imagine that in a few decades, when their hair was white and their teeth were gone, Xiang Qingyun would still be the most handsome old man.

Over the years, it is not that he and Xiang Qingyun have had conflicts and broke up several times when the quarrel was the worst, but now they are still happily lying on the same bed; when they are the poorest and most miserable, the two of them live together I have no place to live. I lived in the basement of someone else’s house for a month, and I had to work three or four jobs during the day, but now I have a house, a car, and money to travel. In the most difficult time, in addition to repaying the mortgage, I still owed a lot of money outside Debt, the creditors came to the door to splash paint and light firecrackers, and the monthly salary was transferred out of the account as soon as it was transferred to the account. I was reluctant to add an egg to the noodles that cost 3000 cents, but now I can save [-] to [-] yuan every month. money.Therefore, as long as people can live healthy and healthy, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome.

The next day was the weekend, early in the morning, Xiang Qingyun answered a phone call, saying that an old classmate came to S city, he would answer it.Ye Jiawen knew that this old classmate had been in contact with Xiang Qingyun for a while, and it seemed that he appeared out of nowhere last month, saying that he wanted to come to Shanghai to work and earn money, and asked Xiang Qingyun to help.Xiang Qingyun is a very kind person, and he would of course help the requests made by his old classmates. In the past few days, he has been helping people to pay attention to the recruitment news in the newspaper, and even asked Ye Jiawen if their school is recruiting.Ye Jiawen has been with him for more than ten years, and he has already figured out the temper of a good old man like him, so he just let him go and didn't take it to heart.

After Xiang Xiaolong had breakfast, he went out to play with his classmates. Ye Jiawen sat down in front of the computer and continued to study about travel.Among the three men in their family, two were surnamed Xiang Ma Daha, and he could only handle matters that needed to be planned and arranged.

The person in charge of the travel agency gave him a document about the things needed for the visa. He looked at it. In addition to the employment certificate issued by the unit, the visa also required a property certificate to prove that he had a deposit of at least 5 yuan.If it is a family, then one property certificate is enough, but he and Xiang Qingyun have a family, but they lack one certificate than ordinary couples, so they cannot issue the same property certificate.After deducting travel expenses from their money, only [-] yuan is left, and they can only issue a property certificate. Fortunately, Xiang Qingyun's Japanese visa has not expired, so [-] yuan is enough.

Before going out to the bank to apply for a certificate, Ye Jiawen called his uncle who lived in Tokyo, Japan, asked him how he was, and told him that he planned to go to Japan in August, and that he would visit him when he had the chance.Then he specifically asked about the situation of nuclear radiation in Japan, and the uncle told him with certainty that the current concentration of nuclear radiation did not cause much damage to the human body, not to mention that he only went for a few days and came back, so he was told not to worry.In fact, Ye Jiawen has checked a lot of information on the Internet before, and basically said that the level of nuclear radiation in Japan is not a serious problem. Thinking about it, it has been so long, and I have never heard of any strange diseases spreading in Japan. , Some people mutate, as long as they don't go to Fukushima, it will basically have no effect.What's more, the nuclear radiation also saved him a lot of money, so let's just take X-rays.

On the way to the bank, Ye Jiawen received a call from Xiang Qingyun.He asked Xiang Qingyun: "How is it, has anyone received it?"

Xiang Qingyun's tone sounded depressed: "Baby, I may have met a liar."

"Scared???" Ye Jiawen was startled: "What's going on?"

Xiang Qingyun said: "Didn't that person call me three weeks ago? He said he was my old classmate. In fact, I don't remember this person at all. I think maybe I forgot. Since he said yes, he can still call me." If you know my name, then it must be. The few calls he made to me during this period were all about how miserable their family was, his mother was sick, his father was hit by a car and died, and he kept complaining to me, saying I wanted to come to Shanghai to make money to treat his mother, so I wanted to help him. He told me that he was coming to Shanghai today and asked me to pick him up. I drove halfway, and he sent me a text message, saying something urgent , asked me to bring 8000 yuan to help him in an emergency, and suddenly I felt something was wrong..."

The corners of Ye Jiawen's mouth twitched fiercely, "Damn it, you fell for this low-level deception?! I can tell you by your name. Some unscrupulous intermediary company must have sold your information. I'm harassed by advertisements now. Nine out of ten phone calls can call me by my name!"

Xiang Qingyun's voice became softer: "How do I know he's a liar...Have you heard of Song Zhihuai? He said he was my college classmate."

Ye Jiawen rolled his eyes.He and Xiang Qingyun are college classmates. When he first heard that he was an old classmate, whether he had heard the name before, he thought it was his high school classmate. He didn't expect Xiang Qingyun to be so simple-minded!He said angrily: "I haven't heard of it, so you wouldn't ask him which school you graduated from, and ask him to name the five mentors?"

Xiang Qingyun said dully: "Oh, then I'll ask him."

"You're an idiot!" Ye Jiawen yelled into the phone, "You still have to ask now! You're obviously a liar, okay? Even if it's not a liar, it's your old classmate, are you really going to give him 8000 yuan? Yours Money is floating down from the sky!"

Xiang Qingyun stammered for a while, and said a little frustrated: "Oh, then I won't go, I'll be back now. What do you want for lunch, I'll buy vegetables and make it when I come back."

Ye Jiawen took a few deep breaths, calmed down his anger, and said, "No need, Xiaolong won't come back to eat at noon, and there are a lot of dishes left last night, so we can just make something to eat. By the way, you can buy a pig's trotter, and I will give it to you tonight." Xiaolong stewed pig's feet soup to drink, "

After hanging up the phone, Ye Jiawen sighed all the way.Xiang Qingyun is good at everything, but he is too honest, so he suffers everywhere in this not very honest society.Ye Jiawen thought this was his strength when he was studying, but after living with him, these became his fatal flaws.It's definitely not an exaggeration, it's really a fatal flaw, just because of his temper, Ye Jiawen has suffered countless hardships with him for more than ten years, several times he saw that his life was about to flourish, but was deceived and ruined his fortune several times.

Once the head is opened, the thoughts flow like a flood.Ye Jiawen thought a little angrily, in fact, it's good to be friends with Qingyun, but it's not suitable for living together.His temper is that he can't hurt others if he suffers, and he can't hurt others if he loses himself, so being his classmate, colleague, and partner is really the best thing.But as a lover, he is no longer "others" to him, so he has to suffer with him and watch him take out the money for others' good.

Sometimes people are so fickle. Ye Jiawen was still thinking about how happy he was yesterday, but after such an incident happened today, he began to feel unsatisfactory in life again.But the bank arrived soon, his thoughts were interrupted, and he didn't think about any more old things.

These days, you have to queue for everything, such as eating, going to the bathroom, and even buying a house.Of course, the bank was not to be outdone, and just did such a trivial matter. Ye Jiawen played Lianliankan with his mobile phone for almost an hour, and finally got in line.

He handed the passbook and ID card to the bank staff, explaining his purpose, and the other party brushed the magnetic stripe of his passbook in a well-trained manner, and said without any emotion: "Sir, the balance of your passbook is 560 four. Four dollars."

Ye Jiawen was still a little absent-minded, so he was stunned for a second, then jumped up from the chair suddenly: "What?! How much do you think is left?"

The bank clerk looked at his face, pointed to the electronic screen, and motioned him to look at it himself: "38564.4 yuan."

Ye Jiawen felt his heart stop beating for a moment, and then it started beating violently again, almost jumping out of his throat.He restrained his urge to pounce on him, and tremblingly said: "No, it's impossible! 4 yuan is missing! Find out what's going on!"

The bank clerk shrugged, tapped on the keyboard, and said, "On the tenth day of this month, that is, the day before yesterday, a transfer of 4 yuan was made to your account. Do you need to call up the transfer information?"

For an instant, Ye Jiawen seemed to be chilled by a bucket of ice water.
