No matter how low the temperature is in the era before us, how lucky we don’t need to be alone in the long night

----------------

After this round of sparring and fighting, it can be regarded as not knowing each other. Although Xiaodouzi and Xiaomanzi still vaguely carry in their hearts the common problem of straight men who don't value women very much in this era, they are still convinced by Bai Niu's martial arts. , and even felt a little sorry that she was not born into a man.

Lu Zhu sneered at this: "What's the matter with girls, in a few days, women will still be able to perform on stage!"

"Exactly!" By virtue of Lu Zhu's entry, she narrowly defeated the two opponents, Bai Niu gasped slightly, and then put the firewood in her hand away.

The consecutive victories against two boys who were one or two years older than her were not only due to her good martial arts practice, but also thanks to her strong hands and feet for doing heavy housework on weekdays.

Lu Zhu helped her to sit aside and rest with some appreciation and distress.

But the two girls, Xiaodouzi and Xiao Manzi looked at each other, exchanged a wink of "good men don't fight with women", and changed the subject on their own initiative.

After chatting about the excitement of the Chinese New Year in Peking for a while, and then strolling around the streets for a while, a group of four held a bag of fried chestnuts in one hand and Goubuli steamed buns sold by a small flavor vendor in the other, and they walked quite comfortably.

"This meat bun is really delicious!" And it doesn't cost money because it was invited by the junior sister, and the little scorpion ate it so much that his mouth was full of oil.

Xiaodouzi secretly took a look at this guy who was eating and drinking, holding the buns and was reluctant to eat. He wanted to save his share for Lu Zhu to eat, but Lu Zhu, who had already seen through everything, said something like "I won't eat this Is it?", "I'll teach you how to eat it", "It's not as troublesome as eating steamed stuffed buns, but it's easy to eat." After a combo of blows, he became the first one among the four to finish eating the buns one……

"Next time you have a chance to go to Tianjin, I will invite you to eat the most authentic and delicious Goubuli steamed stuffed bun!" Bai Niu said boldly: Even if the steamed stuffed buns made by vendors selling local snacks taste good, they are still not good. Authentic craftsmanship always lacks the original taste.

"Are you going back to Tianjin after the Chinese New Year?" Lu Zhu asked.

"That's right, but this year I've had a good time here in Peiping, and my father also intends to move to Peking." Bai Niu thought for a while, and then said: "But, these two years still have to run two places, and the family belongings are not enough. Part of it is over there."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come to Beiping, let's go to school together!" Thinking that in two years, he will be almost old enough to enter a girls' school, Lu Zhu said with a smile.

"Do you want to go to school..." Bai Niu lowered her eyes, thinking of her father's appearance, she forced a smile.

Let Lu Zhu be happy for a while, maybe... two years later, Chunhe Ban earns more money, maybe her father really allows her to go to school.

Seeing that the sky was about the same, Bai Niu took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, then simply patted the dust on her body, and said goodbye: "I have to go home and cook, let's go first."

Waved goodbye to Bai Niu, and within a short while, Xiao Mangzi also covered his stomach, with a painful expression on his face: "Oh, no, it may be because I ate too much and got sick, I have to go back first!"

"Go back quickly, remember to take medicine if you really can't do it." Lu Zhu reminded.

Normally, I don't eat much oil or meat in the class. Today, the little mangy eats and drinks non-stop. He eats in a hurry and miscellaneously. It is not surprising that he will have a stomachache.

"Understood!" Xiao Manzi waved without looking back, and got into the alley in a hurry.

"Where are we going next..." Lu Zhu was about to call Xiaodouzi to continue walking, but when he turned around, he seemed to have not heard his words at all, just standing there blankly, staring at the people on the other side of the street. A pharmacy in the distance.

Lu Zhu followed his gaze to look over there, and immediately found the soft and slim figure standing in the pharmacy grabbing the medicine.

It is Xiaodouzi's mother, Yanhong.

Watching her cover her mouth with a handkerchief and cough a few times, then took a few packs of medicine and went out, Xiaodouzi woke up suddenly, grabbed Lu Zhu and hid in those pulleys full of sacks parked on the side of the road. Behind the pallet truck.

"Why hide?" Lu Zhu looked at Xiaodouzi and asked in a low voice.

Seeing that Xiaodouzi didn't answer her questions as usual, Lu Zhu gently tugged at his sleeve again: "She seems to be sick, do you really not want to visit her?"

"She never came to see me." Xiaodouzi was so entangled that she had no choice but to answer simply.

"So? Are you still concerned about what happened back then?" Lu Zhu continued to ask.

Xiaodouzi glanced at Lu Zhu deeply from the side, and was silent for a while before replying: "No."

He said he didn't mind, but the tone of his words didn't look like he didn't mind at all.

"Let's go!" Lu Zhu suddenly exerted strength and forced him to come out from behind the cart.

Knowing that she wanted to follow Yanhong's whereabouts with her, and remembering her mother's identity and where she lived, Xiaodouzi was extremely resistant: "No! You are a girl, you can't go with her!"

"She is your mother!" Lu Zhu turned his head and stared at him.

"But she is..." Xiaodouzi quickly stopped talking in the middle of the sentence, secretly scanned the streets with people coming and going, and swallowed the rest of the words.

"Dogs don't think their mother is ugly. You are such a big person, but you actually hate your own mother. You are not a heinous person who commits all kinds of evil. We are all human beings. Who is more noble than the other?" Knowing that Xiaodouzi still has this knot in his heart , Lu Zhu just snorted softly, and didn't treat him with a bad attitude.

The soft evening sunset on the street shone on the young girl's body, and the demeanor in her eyes was vaguely the same as that of her master in the dark room back then.

Back then, in order for Master Guan to accept him, his mother knelt down and begged Master Guan not to dislike them...

But Master Guan's answer is: They are all low class, whoever dislikes whom.

After so many years, from the illegitimate child who has always been disliked in the flower building to the "little horn" who has emerged in the eyes of everyone, although he has not read much, he has already understood.

He naturally understood that his mother was not easy, but he still couldn't help secretly thinking about the past.

The faint scars on his hands reminded him all the time of the cruel actions of that woman who was his mother.

After learning that her son was unable to enter the drama class because of the birth defect of six fingers, she dragged him outside vigorously without warning, and covered his face with a scarf.

His hand, which is used to covering warmth with his hand, was suddenly exposed to the cold air, and he was overwhelmed by the cold at that time. He wanted to act like a baby and explain to his mother that he needed to cover his cold hands... In the end, it was not The warm fluffy hand covers, but the cold and sharp blade.

He didn't even react for a moment, the excessive coldness seemed to slow down the transmission of pain, until he subconsciously pulled down the scarf covering his face and saw the blood on his hands, then he screamed loudly.

No matter acting like a baby or crying, his future is like the sixth little finger that was forcibly cut off. The moment the knife fell, it was already doomed.

He was born and raised in the Yaozi that people despised, but after leaving the Yaozi, he didn't want to admit it all.

He didn't feel that he was wrong before, and that's how it is these years. If he gave it to someone else, it would have nothing to do with the previous clean break.

However, after hearing Lu Zhu's words, he suddenly realized that if he abandoned everything in the past as he thought in the past, what would he have to do with those people who forgot their origins and who loathed the past but relied on the past to survive? the difference? !

Thinking about this, Xiaodouzi felt relieved, and sincerely apologized to Lu Zhu: "You're right, it's because Shige was thinking about it for a while."

"Then hurry up and follow." Lu Zhu greeted.

Xiaodouzi responded, grabbed Lu Zhu's hand tightly, and ran with big strides.

Going into the alley, Xiaodouzi showed a nostalgic look, looked around, and then brought Lu Zhu to a dog hole, saying that when he wanted to sneak out to play occasionally, he would come from this dog hole. Caves come in and out without anyone noticing.

Thinking that this happened several years ago, Lu Zhu hurriedly bent down to look at the size of the dog hole: Fortunately, it is the kind of dog hole that large dogs come in and out of, and this size should not get stuck halfway.

The two got out of the dog hole with their front and back feet, and according to Xiaodouzi's guidance, they quickly came to the outside of a room.

"It's here." Xiaodouzi opened the door cautiously, instructed Lu Zhu to enter the room, and then closed the door softly and silently.

Going over the screen and walking into the room, I saw my sallow mother lying on the bed tremblingly drinking medicine from a medicine bowl. Xiaodouzi's nose was sore and she was about to shed tears.

"Mom!" Xiaodouzi rushed to the bed.

Yanhong was stunned for a moment, the medicine bowl was almost knocked over, Xiaodouzi quickly grasped the edge of the bowl, her voice was a little hoarse: "It's me, mother!"

"Little Douzi..." Finally recognized the person from the somewhat familiar eyebrows, Yanhong raised her hand excitedly, and caressed Xiaodouzi's face.

Lu Zhu, who was standing by the side, also took a closer look at her hands and face: the dark yellow complexion that couldn't be covered by heavy makeup and serious dark circles, dull and dull skin, thin and white palms... …Contacting her in this environment where she often needs to drink and stay up late, it is obvious that something is wrong with her liver.

People who get this kind of disease in this era usually don't last long.

At this time, Yanhong also roughly explained her illness to Xiaodouzi, and was able to see her son whom she thought she would never see again at the last moment, Yanhong looked at Lu Zhu very moved: "You are Miss Guan, right? I heard from Xiaodouzi that you have been taking good care of him these past few years, and you were the one who persuaded him to come and see me just now..."

Speaking of which, she actually sat up and wanted to bow to Lu Zhu, so surprised that Lu Zhu hurriedly grabbed her hand to stabilize her body: "It's nothing, Senior Brother is the one who always takes care of me!"

Yanhong smiled weakly: "The son is better than the mother, I gave birth to him, I understand his temperament, if no one took him with him, he would not be what he is today."

Speaking of this, Yanhong couldn't help but glanced at Xiaodouzi again: She had seen many people, and the children who were abandoned since childhood were more or less hostile; and Xiaodouzi's gentle and peaceful charm definitely It can only be raised in a very harmonious and happy atmosphere.

Besides, it's not like she couldn't see the youthful feelings in her son's heart.

She made the right bet when she made up her mind to gamble back then.

Both the master and the children in the Guan family class are excellent, and she feels relieved to have her son entrusted to them.

Chatted with Xiaodouzi for a while, during which Yanhong kept staring at Xiaodouzi, wishing not to blink, so that she could watch her son for a while: "By the way, you can go on stage and act now Alright, have you got a new name?"

"Yes, Master invited someone to give him a stage name called 'Cheng Dieyi'." Xiaodouzi replied.

"Dieyi..." Yanhong whispered Xiaodouzi's new name several times, as if she wanted to engrave this name in her heart.

In the end, she told Xiaodouzi to take good care of her junior sister. Before leaving, Yanhong took out a pair of beautifully embroidered hand covers, and said softly, "Mother has nothing to give you. I made it with my own hands when I was thinking of you, it’s cold in the winter night, you and Miss Guan are one by one, take... go home."

On the day when I send my son away with my own hands, my son's home will never be by my side again.

"Thank you, mother. If I'm free during Chinese New Year, I'll come to see you again..." Xiaodouzi also sighed with emotion.

After thanking his mother, Xiaodouzi put the small bag with his hands on his shoulders, then took Lu Zhu's hand, and came to the dog cave again.

Still the same as when he came in, Xiaodouzi crawled out first to explore the way, and after confirming that there was no problem outside, he whispered to Lu Zhu to crawl out after him.

"Wang!"

Lu Zhu had just climbed halfway when he suddenly heard a dog barking.

Looking back, she saw a big black dog under the light, staring at her, who was blocking the way, so scared that she almost rolled and crawled out.

The appearance of the big black dog was too unexpected and menacing, even if she was not very afraid of dogs, she was taken aback.

After forcefully dragging the bewildered little Douzi out for a long distance, Lu Zhu leaned against the wall and took a few quick breaths to calm down his intense breathing.

"That dog just looks big, but it's actually not fierce at all. I fed it when I was a child, and now it's probably too old to run..." Xiaodouzi also panted a few times and laughed.

"You didn't say it earlier! Look, I was so scared that my feet hurt from running!" Lu Zhu pretended to be angry and thumped Xiaodouzi, but in the end he got a more hearty laugh.

"Okay, okay, it's Senior Brother's mistake, how about this, Senior Brother will carry you back, okay?" Xiaodouzi stopped laughing, apologized repeatedly, and then turned around on the spot as lightly and nimbly as a butterfly, and turned to Lu Zhu showed off his shoulders, which he thought were quite strong, and shouted: "As it is said in the play—to pay off the merits!"

He is so thin, can he carry himself?

Even if he didn't say it directly, Lu Zhuna's suspicious gaze made Xiaodouzi understand her thoughts, and he immediately touched her hair with a helpless smile: "I jumped up all of a sudden before, so the others didn't follow her." Come on... I have eaten well and slept soundly recently, and I have gained a lot of weight."

"Come up!" Xiaodouzi turned around and turned her back to Lu Zhu.

Lu Zhu hesitated for a moment, but finally hugged his neck and climbed onto his back.

Feeling the weight on her back, Xiaodouzi turned her back and pressed her waist with her hands, then lifted her feet and started to walk, her steps were very steady.

"Is it cold?" Lu Zhu turned his head and whispered in his ear, then pulled the corner of his cloak to cover his seemingly thin shoulders.

"You really got a little fatter... that's great. I was too thin before. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to carry me on your back." I pressed his shoulder through the fabric, feeling the strength contained in the tendon and flesh. Lu Zhu couldn't help sighing: the child with stubborn eyes back then has now grown into a handsome and handsome young man.

I don't know if it's the heat of my breath or the furry edge of the cloak. I feel the scorching heat from my neck to my ears - I can guess without looking, my face and ears must be red up.

"Don't make trouble." He tilted his body viciously and made his back slightly tilted, which was immediately exchanged for the little girl's subconscious exclamation.

Xiaodouzi couldn't help secretly laughing at the successful implementation of this little prank.

"Cheng Dieyi! Tell you to bully me!" Seeing that he was about to reach the alley near his home, Lu Zhu decisively crossed the river and demolished the bridge. jumped down.

Hearing that Lu Zhu no longer called Senior Brother but directly called him by his stage name, knowing that she had really offended her, Xiaodouzi hurriedly spread out his hands to protect Lu Zhu who jumped down: "Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore. ……Well."

Seeing him looking at his face with the look of trying to hold back a smile, Lu Zhu, who couldn't find the mirror, made a trick and asked the audience.

A series of hahahaha barrages told her a tragic fact: Because she was scared by the dog just now and rolled and crawled, she rubbed a lot of wall dust on her face, white gray and black, and she was on the side of the street again. Against the backdrop of red paper lanterns, it is even more exciting than Xiaodouzi's Huadan makeup...

"Laugh, I don't have a handkerchief anyway, so I won't wipe it off." Lu Zhu silently looked at the dark blue night sky. A star belt formed by the sky full of stars seemed to soften the traces of time and space.

This beautiful scenery made her want to roll her eyes back, so she just said sullenly: "Anyway, I will not be the one who will be scolded when I go back."

"Yeah, my little face cat, the one who gets scolded is your senior brother and me." If you don't take good care of your little junior sister, on the one hand, the master and senior brothers won't let him go; on the other hand, he is too embarrassed to face himself. .

In the dim light of the paper lantern, Xiaodouzi slightly lowered her head and raised her hands, gently wiping off the ashes on her face little by little with her sleeves.

"Okay." Finally wiped off a little bit of white on the tip of the nose, Xiaodouzi gently stroked her temples, and brushed the few strands of hair behind her ears.

"Do you want senior brother to carry you back?" Xiaodouzi asked with a smile.

"You say I'm a cat with a painted face, so I don't want you to memorize it." Lu Zhu rolled his eyes, raised his head slightly to look at Xiaodouzi under the lamp, his face was half-clear and half-dark under the light red light, and upon closer inspection, there was A color of stunning sheer clarity.

I heard from the old man that most of the coldest day in winter is today's Laba.

However, in this cold winter night, the two of them stood facing each other under the lamp, the bone-piercing coldness seemed to be warmed by the light red light.

"I'll show you the stunt of a painted-faced cat!"

Hearing that Lu Zhu yelled cheerfully, he rushed to his side, seeing the two shadows merged together because of her action, Xiaodouzi caught her in a funny way, his eyes were soft and watery: "What stunt? "

His eyes cast on the ground, and the long shadow drawn by the light blended perfectly like a person, the corners of his mouth just grinned a little, and the fluffy mass that threw himself into his arms raised his head again——

"Flop—butterfly—ah!"
