65 /

On January [-], traffic in Kyoto returned to normal.

I have been bored at home for two days, and there is no special change after I come out, but the weather is a little colder, and the two layers of cotton clothes can't resist the cold outside.But although the weather is cold, everyone still goes to work as usual, leaves work as usual, and takes vacation as usual. Time flies and it is New Year's Eve.To welcome the joy of the festival, red lanterns are hung on the streets and alleys, and there are a pair of Chinese knots with socialist core values ​​separated from each other. In addition to preparing for the Spring Festival, there is also the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Winter in Kyoto is always like this. After the snow falls, the temperature stays low, hovering below zero, and the snow on the roadside cannot be melted.So even though it has been more than half a month since the last snowfall, when you walk on the street and look around, there are still patches of white rushing to catch your eye.

On New Year's Eve, the family should be reunited.Wen Yue finished the matter at hand, and distributed a "Spring Festival bonus" to every employee in the company, and agreed to meet Cheng Mosheng with Cheng Mosheng to celebrate the New Year. Unexpectedly, Cheng Mosheng was entangled in an operation and dragged on until It was over at eight o'clock in the evening.It was already past 08:30 when we returned to Cheng's house, and the temperature inside and outside the house was like ice and fire. Cheng's mother took the coat he took off and hung it on the hanger next to the entrance, complaining about how to arrange surgery on New Year's Eve.

"Unexpected situation." Cheng Mosheng explained that this is often the case in surgery, and there is no way around it.

He sat down next to Wen Li. Originally on the phone, he asked others to eat first, so he didn't have to wait for him, but Yao Wenlan said that it would be okay if he didn't have someone on New Year's Eve. Anyway, he had to stay up late today, so it wouldn't hurt to wait any longer.

By the time the New Year's Eve dinner started, the gala had already been going on for nearly an hour. The sound of fireworks and firecrackers outside was endless, and singing was bursting on the TV. Yao Wenlan held the bowl in her hand, and was a little dazed for a while. It seemed that she hadn't had such a lively New Year's Eve for a long time.

In the past, it was just her and Wen Li, and there were few people, so I went to find a hot pot restaurant on the side of the street and sat down, counting it as a good meal to reward myself for my hard work this year.After all, there are only two people, no matter how lively it is, it won't go anywhere.

When Wen Li became an adult, she thought, when Wen Li could fall in love, she didn't know if his personality would be pleasing.Although she had such thoughts, she didn't have much hope in fact. Her own children knew that they might not know how to write the word love in a few years. What she didn't expect was that the first Spring Festival after graduating from university , I learned that he would not go home.

Wen Li on the phone had a shy and guilty voice. Yao Wenlan was amazed that he had enlightened so early, but he just smiled. Then it's time, bring him back for me to see.

Wen Li agreed, but only one person came back in the end.

There is very little snow in Yanghuai City. It does not fall every year like in Kyoto, and it seems to be endless.But that year there was a lot of snow, the snowflakes fell on the docile black hair of the 20-year-old young man, and the exposed skin was red from the cold. He buried his face in the scarf to absorb some warmth, A pair of eyes bent into a crescent: "Mom, I'm back."

Yao Wenlan was wearing a heavy padded coat, watching Wen Li go to catch the cold snowflakes with both hands, she asked, are you alone?

He said yes.

She asked, which one?

Wen Li was silent, smiled and pushed her into the room, he was busy with work and couldn't come.

With her back to Wen Li, she couldn't see his expression, but she could hear the sadness flashed by his smile.

For decades before Yao Wenlan's life, she had been trapped in a small county town in Yanghuai. She had never seen the big world, and she was only slightly educated, but her only life experience made her very sensitive in some aspects. She thought, this is Not going well.

She asked a few more symbolic questions, and cooked a bowl of hot wontons for Wen Li. Later, Wen Li stayed at home and told her that they broke up the next year.

She knows even if he doesn't tell.

She smiled lightly: "If you divide it, let's divide it, it's no big deal."

As a mother, the most worrying thing is the marriage of her children.After that, Wen Li didn't even have a close friend, let alone a relationship.First, Yao Wenlan was afraid that he would be like herself, stuck in a relationship when she was young, and would not be able to get out of it. Second, after the cancer was diagnosed, she was even more worried about what Wen Li would do if she left.

So she included the desire to see Wen Yue get married as her last wish, even if she forced him, at worst she would last longer, and Wen Yue would always meet the one he likes and also likes him.

It's not that she hasn't thought about what to do if Wen Li fools her.

But thankfully, it turned out well.

At exactly thirty o'clock on the New Year's Eve, the neighbor's house lit the most beautiful firework, which bloomed gorgeously in the night sky. When Wen Yue went to find Shih Tzu playing in the yard, he looked up and saw a beautiful view.He called Cheng Mosheng to come and have a look, while teasing the dog in his arms, Cheng Mosheng went up to pluck a handful of Shih Tzu's fur as usual, and asked Wen Li, "Do you want to let it go? I also have it in my car."

"Huh? When did you buy it?"

"I came here yesterday or the day before yesterday. I kept it in the car. I was too busy and forgot."

"Let it go, let me go, give me the key, and I'll get it."

Wen Yue took the key, went to the garage and brought out two buckets of big fireworks. When Cheng's mother saw it, she smiled: "Why did you buy such big fireworks?" They were all big fireworks when the company was newly opened.

The smaller ones are beautiful.

Cheng Mosheng said that the most imposing one he asked the store for was this one.

Cheng's father asked him to keep it and put it away when Wen Yue took over the head office. There are still several kinds in stock at home, but I don't know if they can be ordered after a long time of storage.

"Go and have a look." Cheng's mother urged him, "It's been a long time since I set off fireworks, and I kind of miss the past."

"You are so old, why are you setting off fireworks?" Cheng's father muttered.

Mother Cheng pretended not to hear: "What did you say?"

Cheng's father said: "If you like it, I will pick the most beautiful one tomorrow."

It's a pity that all the fireworks that Cheng's father found have become squibs. They have been stored at home for too long, and there is no sound when they are lit.Cheng's father sighed, saying that we can only talk about it tomorrow. Cheng Mosheng pointed to the two barrels of fireworks that hadn't been put in yet, "Why don't you put them all away, they should look good too."

Cheng's mother said, "It's not that I can't do it, it's just that I'm a bit overqualified."

"It's something the family plays, so there's no such thing as a big talent or a small thing." Cheng's father said, setting up the two fireworks in the empty courtyard. The lighter lit the fuse. The others stood in the corridor, and he went to the firework. Run away.After several sounds in a row, gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night, and then formed the pattern of Chinese characters "I love you all my life", followed by a love heart.Xi Shi barked twice towards the distant sky, as if she was surprised that the round fireworks suddenly turned into Chinese characters.

The onlookers in the corridor did not expect that this seemingly ordinary and unremarkable fireworks tube had such an ingenious design inside.

After a brief moment of amazement, Cheng's mother couldn't help laughing: "Come on, maybe I ordered it eagerly. She also said that it was the most imposing one I asked for from the store. I won't bring your little one next New Year's Eve." Two mouthfuls, it's so boring."

Wen Li asked Cheng Mosheng: "You really ordered it?"

Fireworks bought casually on the street should not achieve such an effect.

The three parents stayed away from them, and Yao Wenlan entered the room with a smile. Wen Yue also heard Cheng's mother complaining to Cheng's father: "We have been married for so many years, and I have never seen you let me off such fireworks. It is better than my son Woolen cloth!"

Cheng's father immediately expressed his opinion: "What's so good about these fireworks? I'll go and order a hundred and eighty ones for you tomorrow, and let them play every night."

Wen Li waited for a long time, but did not get Cheng Mosheng's answer. He poked Cheng Mosheng's arm, but saw him pinching his chin in thought. These were indeed fireworks he bought casually, and the only possibility was that the boss took the wrong one.

Or is it intentional?But he only bought it for less than a thousand, so this kind of fireworks needs to be thought about, what are the plans.

He couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, he recovered from his contemplation, and said seriously to Wen Li: "This is not good, I will make you a better one in two days."

Wen Yue: "?"

Cheng Mosheng didn't explain too much, he wouldn't use such nasty words as "I love you all my life", he would at least add Wen Li's name to order.

He took Wen Li upstairs, and the gala on the TV was not over yet. The well-dressed dancers opened the oil-paper umbrellas in their hands, and the rotating patterns just formed a seemingly flowing landscape painting.

Xi Shi went upstairs with the two of them, but before entering the house, Cheng Mosheng quickly shut the door, almost pinching her tail.Shih Tzu didn't understand why she was being treated like this, so she hugged her tail and let out a pitiful call, and she heard her good father say "Xi Tzu is locked out", and then her bad father said, "Don't worry about it. "

Shih Tzu: Angry!

It tried to jump up and grab the doorknob, but firstly it was too short and not tall enough; secondly, its bad father, the chicken thief, had the foresight to lock the door, even if it reached the handle, it was useless.

And Wen Li inside the house heard the crisp sound of locking, and suddenly became vigilant: "Why did you lock the door?"

"It's almost eleven o'clock." Cheng Mosheng said, "It's time to do some exercise that should be done at night."

The curtains were drawn tightly, and there was heating in the room. Both of them were wearing only an inner layer and a thin sweater. Wen Li was hanging on Cheng Mosheng's body, with his legs around his waist and his arms around his waist. Neck, watching him go to the bathroom.

The bathroom door was opened and closed, and the water from the shower flowed into the bathtub, which quickly filled with warm water.

Up and down, Wen Yue has forgotten how much time has passed, but only remembers that at a certain moment, when the zero o'clock bell rang, Cheng Mosheng leaned against his ear and whispered softly: "Wen Yue, I love you."

Wen Li's consciousness was a little fuzzy, but he still approached instinctively, put his arms around Cheng Mosheng's neck, and told him in a crying voice: "I love you too." His cheeks were pale and red, I don't know why There is a hint of affection in it, or the heat in the bathroom is too heavy.The man holding him smiled narrowly, kissed his shoulder and left a series of tiny teeth marks on it: "It's past zero, happy new year."

Wen Li let him toss and lie softly on Cheng Mosheng's body. People who don't like exercising always suffer in this kind of thing. But the next day, I put aside the thoughts of the night before, and it's fine to lie down and enjoy.He fumbled to press a kiss on the corner of Cheng Mosheng's mouth, and also said, "Happy New Year."

This is their first New Years Eve together.

They will have many more New Years like this in the future.
