Trivial Skin of Rebirth

Xiang Qingyun was taken aback by his sudden question, and really hesitated: "I..."

In fact, Ye Jiawen just didn't want Xiang Qingyun to go back to his hometown for the New Year.It's not that he is in a hurry to get rid of his relationship with those relatives in his hometown. It's better to go back later.He just tried his best to scare Liu Sha away a while ago, and now Xiang Qingtian dare not answer their calls, if Xiang Qingyun goes back this time, if he tries to say something again, it will make those people's minds more active again, Isn't it a waste of work?Those schistosomiasis will come back sooner or later, it's a little bit longer if you can delay, first give yourself a chance to recuperate.

Xiang Qingtian didn't plan to go back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year this year.The annual leave is too short, only two days in total. There is no bullet train or high-speed rail these days. It takes [-] or [-] hours to go back to my hometown by train. In the countryside, flying by plane is too much of a luxury, so the time to go home for the New Year is too tight.What's more, I just met my parents not long ago, so this time I will send some money back to take care of them, and I will go back to spend the New Year with them in a year or two.But Ye Jiawen's family is different. City H is very close to City S. It takes three to four hours to get there by bus, and they can go back and forth on weekends.

Xiang Qingyun said: "I'll go home with you for the New Year? How do you tell your dad?"

Ye Jiawen said: "Let's just say you are my roommate living together. Your hometown is too far away, so I will go back with me this year to celebrate the new year." Then he put his arms around Xiang Qingyun's arm and acted coquettishly, "I haven't seen me for a long time. Dad. You know, since my dad got married, I have a feeling that I am an outsider. Come with me back and give me more home. "

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiang Qingyun agreed.

Anyway, Ye Jiawen didn't have a full-time job right now, so on New Year's Eve on the 27th, he went back on the 24th and made an appointment with Xiang Qingyun to come over during the day on the 27th and have a New Year's Eve dinner together at night.

On the day he went back, he arrived at the bus station, and Gu Shangxue drove a Volkswagen to pick him up.Gu Shangxue was five years older than him. He was already 27 at the time. He was young and promising. He had just returned from a doctoral degree abroad and had a bright future.He took Ye Jiawen's luggage, put it in the trunk of the car, and smiled politely at Ye Jiawen: "Didn't you eat lunch? If you want to eat, I'll take you there."

Gu Shangxue's appearance is refined, with gold-rimmed eyes, he speaks and acts politely.Ye Jiawen was always a little apprehensive towards him.Ye Jiawen still remembers that when he was 15 years old and was in the first year of high school, one day, his father took him out for dinner at night. There was a square table for four people. There were him and his father on the side, and a middle-aged woman and a 20-year-old woman on the opposite side. Young men around.His father said to him: "This is your Aunt Han, and this is your elder brother Gu Shangxue. We will live together in the future."

After eating a meal without taste, Ye's father asked Gu Shangxue to take Ye Jiawen out for a walk, and the two brothers contacted each other.The two teenagers walked all the way to the edge of the South Lake without a word, and sat by the lake for half an hour, Gu Shangxue took the initiative to hold his hand, and said calmly, "Brother, from now on I will be you Brother." Ye Jiawen replied in a dull voice.

Ye Jiawen didn't even remember what happened after that night, his father took him to move to a new house within a few days, and he began to live with Aunt Han and Gu Shangxue.Two years later, when he took the college entrance examination, he filled in a foreign major, and Gu Shangxue was admitted to a foreign university as a graduate student. The two teenagers left home one after another, and began to venture into their own future.

Gu Shangxue took Ye Jiawen to eat Nanhu vinegar fish, and then took him home.In the evening, Ye Shiqing and Aunt Han cooked in person. The four of them ate and prepared seven or eight dishes. Three or four of the dishes contained sausages made by Ye Shiqing himself, such as sausages fried with leeks, white sausages with chopped chicken, and marinated fresh.

Aunt Han served Ye Jiawen a bowl of pickled Duoxian soup, which was supposed to contain bacon instead of sausages. Ye Jiawen's biological mother improved the recipe and added sausages, and Ye Shiqing also put sausages in it.Aunt Han purposely got him a few more pieces of sausage, and said in a rambling manner: "Your father made it for you specially, and it started to be fed a month ago, and after more than half a month in the sun, the whole room smelled of sausage. I It’s said that there is no sausage in the marinade, but your father wants to put it, saying that you like to eat it, come, you can try your father’s handicraft.”

Ye Jiawen stared at the sausage in the bowl in a daze.

If you include the time in his previous life, he hasn't eaten sausage for more than ten years. He hates the taste of sausage very much. Xiang Qingyun also knows this. Since he was still in college, the two of them ate together. Sausages, green peppers and other dishes he doesn't like, before he can open his mouth to Qingyun, he will take the initiative to put those dishes into his bowl.Later, Xiang Qingyun took over the spoon, and this kind of food never appeared in their family again.Because it's been too long, Ye Jiawen has almost forgotten why he hates eating sausages, as if he was born with it.

Actually not, Ye Jiawen actually liked eating sausages when he was a child.As long as he can remember, his mother has made a big bunch of stuffed sausages every winter, which can be stored for a year. Do so he likes to eat.His birth mother's hands are very skillful, the sausages are fresh and delicious, especially for rice, and a piece of it can be used for a bowl of white rice. Both Ye Jiawen and Ye Shiqing like to eat it.Later, when Ye Jiawen was ten years old, his mother died in a car accident, and the remaining two father and son had no taste for anything, so Ye Shiqing began to learn how to make stuffed sausages.But he didn't learn well before his wife was alive, the sausages he poured out were bitter and astringent, but he failed every year and still made them every year. In the end, Ye Jiawen got scared when he saw the sausage, and felt sad in his mouth when he saw the sausage conditioned reflex , abruptly changed from liking to eating to hating to eat.

Ye Jiawen picked up a piece of sausage and took a bite.The casings were old and not as bitter as I remembered, but still a bit bitter.Not tasty, not tasty at all.

Aunt Han smiled and asked him: "Is it delicious? It's the first time I've seen your dad make stuffed sausages. I didn't expect him to do this." Ye Shiqing pretended to eat vegetables, but secretly glanced at him.

Ye Jiawen put down the bowl and chopsticks, rubbed his nose, "I've had a cold for the past two days, and I can't taste much after eating." After taking two more mouthfuls of soup, he ran to the bathroom to blow his nose, and cried silently for half a minute while holding the sink, wiping his face. After finishing his face, he returned to the table and continued to eat.

After dinner, he accompanied Ye Shiqing out for a walk.

Just like when he was a child, Ye Shiqing walked ahead alone with his hands behind his back, and he followed silently with his head down.The current Ye Shiqing is younger than he remembered. The last time he saw his father in his last life, his father was already over 60 years old, his hair was all white, his face had twelve or thirteen folds when he smiled, and his back was bent.The current father's hair is still black, and his steps are still light, but he still feels that his father is old.

In his previous life, he was too unfilial, didn't have a family and a career, and finally tortured himself to death.When he was about to die, he didn't dare to call his father, and he didn't dare to go back to see him, so he died silently.Fortunately, my father has a new home, so he will die when he dies, so that my father will not be old and have nothing to support.

The two fathers and sons walked along several long streets one after the other, and the lights in the city just came on, drawing long shadows and overlapping them.When reaching an intersection, Ye Shiqing stopped suddenly, looked across the road and smiled.

Ye Jiawen stopped without knowing why, and Ye Shiqing pointed to an elementary school opposite and said, "Every time I pass by here, I seem to see you standing there with your schoolbag on your back, and when you see me, you will run over, and then I will pick you up." You go home. I'll wait for a while, if you don't come over, I'll know I'm confused again, you've grown up." After standing for a while, smiled, and continued walking.

Ye Jiawen didn't say anything, but followed silently, covered by the darkness, tears fell to the ground one by one, silently.

Only after living a new life will I know what I missed.Know what things should be managed with heart, and know who should be kept at a respectful distance.Fortunately, fortunately, there is a chance to do it again.

Ye Jiawen looked at the back of his father in front of him, and said softly, "Dad, I will honor you."
