Chapter 40 Simple Years

Zhong Yi returned to the attic with a chill in her body.Ah Li went downstairs to pick him up: "Is it cold?"

Zhong Yi nodded and said, "I feel a little dizzy."

Ah Li looked at him: "Let's take a bath."

Zhong Yi obediently went to the bathroom, and then went upstairs with a body full of heat.

Ah Li was sitting on the bed reading a book, the light shrouded him, emitting a soft light.

Zhong Yi leaped onto him, raised her head and rubbed against Ah Li's face.

Ah Li laughed, put down the book and put his arms around him: "Why are you acting coquettish all of a sudden?"

Zhong Yi didn't answer him, he looked at Ah Li's handsome face so close, and said, "A Li, you... have to leave again tomorrow."

Ah Li smiled lightly and said, "Can't bear to part with me?"

Zhong Yi hugged his neck, leaned on him, and said vaguely: "Well, I can't bear it."

Ali's mouth curled silently.

They maintained this posture, and Ah Li asked, "Did you enjoy going to the White House today?"

Zhong Yi said slowly: "Generally, Daddy is so strange today, he came back without waiting for me, and his face is not good-looking..."

Ah Li was silent for a while, then said, "I guess I'm tired, I'll be fine tomorrow."

Zhong Yi shook her head: "Not tomorrow. I don't think about tomorrow."

Ah Li stroked his back, lowered his eyes, and said softly, "Okay, there is no tomorrow."

That night, Zhong Yi was like an octopus, tightly wrapped around Ah Li, with his head buried in the socket of Ah Li's neck. Ah Li gently stroked his soft long hair with his hands, and closed his eyes.

The next day, the snow stopped.

Zhong Yi opened his eyes in a daze, and found that he was alone on the bed.The light in the room was dim, and I didn't know how long I slept.

"Ah Li? Ah Li!"

His voice went unanswered in the empty room.

Zhong Yi was a little flustered: Could it be that Ah Li has already left?

My heart was pounding, and I fell to the ground barefoot. As soon as I went downstairs, I met my mother.

The mother gave him a dissatisfied look: "Xiaoyi, put on your shoes."

Zhong Yi hurriedly asked: "Mother, where is Ah Li?"

Mother touched Zhong Yi's head and said, "I've already left. It was early in the morning, so I didn't wake you up. Ah Li has to hurry."

Zhong Yi lowered his head.

The mother sighed: "You child, it's fine, A Li will be back during the Chinese New Year."

Zhong Yi raised her head, her eyes were a little moist: "Wouldn't it be a whole year to wait?"

Mother nodded.

Zhong Yi listlessly let his mother put on clothes, shoes and socks for him.

He stared out the window in a daze, the layout of the room hadn't been touched, as if Ah Li hadn't come back.

Ah Li, the snow stopped, but you left.

He hugged the flower field that jumped around and acted like a baby, and stroked it once and for all.Hanada probably sensed something, and curled up in his arms obediently.

During lunch, Daddy's face was not very good-looking.

Zhong Yi asked, "Is Daddy sick?"

Yan Hui touched Zhong Han's forehead worriedly: "Let me take a look—it seems that I have a fever."

Zhong Han's usually clear and warm eyes became a little confused, and he stared blankly at Yan Hui.

Zhong Yi said: "Daddy looked so ugly last night, did he catch the cold from the cold wind?"

Yan Hui said: "Han, are you dizzy?"

Zhong Han's face was pale, and he nodded: "It's a little uncomfortable."

Yan Hui worried: "Go and rest, and call the doctor later."

After lunch, the doctor saw Zhong Han, took medicine, and let Zhong Han rest in bed for a few days.

Yan Hui was busy taking care of Zhong Han, Zhong Yi ran over to see his father's weak appearance, and felt distressed, and then his mother couldn't take care of him, so he walked away silently.

In the afternoon, it seemed that Lord Han came, but Dad seemed to have a big argument with him in the room, and finally Lord Han left with a sullen face.

Zhong Yi ran into Lord Han on the road. He was wearing a black sable fur cloak and saluted him with cold eyes. He glanced at him and strode away.

This feeling is not very pleasant, even very depressing.

Unconsciously, I went to Ah Li's room, lay on the bed, and missed him very much.

Instead of doing this, it's better not to let Ah Li come back.

He went back and forth like this to make himself happy and then unhappy.

Alas, sigh.Zhong Yi felt that it was time for her to practice her qin, and these days she was too busy playing, and all the homework assigned by Master Zhu was thrown aside.

With the sound of the piano, Zhong Yi may not even know whether his dependence on his brother is too much.

Who knows, at this young and ignorant age, there is always some confusion. When you don't understand, it may always be excusable.

In a blink of an eye, winter goes to spring and spring goes to summer solstice.

When the snow takes away the cold, the spring breeze blows the willow branches green, and the frogs croak and the lotus blooms, the familiar yet unfamiliar summer comes.

The lotus pond at home is bustling again, the pink of the hibiscus is wrapped around the green of the lotus leaves, and the grass is dense, especially the withered trees in winter are now full of vitality.

The family was enjoying the shade under the peach blossom tree, and Zhong Yi found out that she had grown a whole head taller than last year.

Yan Hui smiled and counted the notches on the peach blossom tree: "Xiaoyi has grown a lot taller."

Zhong Han said: "In a few years, I will be about the same height as Daddy."

Flower fields circled around their feet, and bells around their necks jingled.

Yan Hui bent down: "Hua Tian, ​​what's wrong with you?"

Huatian raised his head, showing pitiful eyes: "Meow——"

Zhong Yi said helplessly: "Mother, it's so hot."

Zhong Han shook his head: "Huatian, I'm going to read a book, you and I go to the bamboo house to cool off."

So Huatian immediately followed his father to the bamboo house.

Zhong Yi looked at Huatian's small appearance and smiled.

During dinner, Zhong Han smiled and said, "Xiaoyi, do you want to go to your hometown with Daddy?"

Zhong Yi asked suspiciously, "My hometown? Where?"

Zhong Han said: "Yundi, didn't you go there when you were young?" Zhong Han showed a look of reminiscence: "I remember that I was not very big at that time, and I left Yundi and came to Andu... In a blink of an eye, you are like this big."

Yan Hui hesitated to speak: "Han doesn't have many relatives in Yundi...Are you planning to go back and see Brother Zou?"

Zhong Han felt a little guilty: "I said it for a few years and came back to take a look, but I didn't expect to delay it again and again. Now he is the one who wrote to urge."

Zhong Yi said, "Uncle Zou Ru?"

Zhong Han smiled slightly: "Do you still remember?"

Zhong Yi scratched her head: "When I was young, I really imagined that I would always pester him and follow him every day."

Zhong Han said with a smile: "Why don't we go back together, we should go and see anyway." She looked at Zhong Yi: "Xiao Yi, do you want to go?"

Zhong Yi nodded: "Of course I did."

Zhong Han smiled: "Okay, then I will write a letter back to him now."

After tidying up their things, they set off on the third day.

Sitting in the carriage, Zhong Yi looked curiously at the scenery outside the window: under the rolling hills was a winding river, green mountains and green waters, a scene of tranquility.The clouds and mist in the sky faintly surround the top of the mountain, and the occasional chirping of birds and insects is hidden in the dense woods and grass.

Huatian seemed very excited, jumping up and down in the car, wanting to get out of the car and play.

After driving for about seven or eight days, I arrived at a small town.

Zhong Han's voice was a little excited: "It's here."

Yan Hui lifted the curtain of the car - the car has already entered the city of Yundi, the shops are next to each other, the streets are spacious, the houses are connected together, there is an endless stream of hawkers, and there are many vendors full of green lotus pods , it seems that the lotus is blooming well at this time.

The buildings here are quite unique, with green tiles and white walls, and simple eaves all in one color. There is no excessive decoration, but it has a taste of simplicity and elegance.

The carriage was driving on the bluestone bricks, and the crisp sound of horseshoes sounded a little loud in the alleyway.

This area is full of houses with courtyards. After a while, the carriage stopped.

Yan Hui asked: "Is it here?"

Zhong Han got off the car and said with a smile, "Yes, it's here."

After carrying and saluting, they said goodbye to the groom, and the family walked towards the courtyard in front.

A dark heavy wooden door, Zhong Han knocked on the buckle: "Zou Ru, we are here."

After a while, a voice came from inside: "Come on, come on, so fast..."

The door was opened from the inside, and standing in front of them was a man wearing a simple dark long coat, his hair was also simply tied with a cloth belt, his appearance was upright, but he exuded a chic temperament.

Zou Ru laughed: "Brother Zhong, why haven't you changed at all, you still look like a young man."

Yan Hui smiled: "Brother Zou, long time no see."

Zou Ru smiled and said, "Ah, the younger siblings are here too. Don't be disgusted with the mess in the elder brother's house."

Yan Hui smiled and said, "Didn't you tell me to do some housework? I don't know what Brother Zou is thinking yet?"

Zou Ru said naively: "...they are still brothers and sisters elves."

Zhong Yi looked at Zou Ru curiously, but Zou Ru hugged him tightly.

With tears in his eyes, he said, "My nephew, he's grown up all of a sudden, and he doesn't even know to come and see Uncle Zou."

Zhong Yi said innocently, "Uncle Zou can come and see me."

Zou Ru said: "By the way, where is Ah Li? Didn't you say that you have raised an older son?"

Zhong Han said helplessly, "Go in and talk."

Zou Ru let go of Zhong Yi, and walked inside with his arms around Zhong Han's shoulder familiarly: "By the way, didn't you say that he entered the Kanyuan Pavilion? He hasn't come back yet?"

They left, leaving their luggage behind.

Yan Hui and Zhong Yi looked at each other: They forgot that this Uncle Zou is the uncle.

The courtyard Zou Ru lives in is neither big nor small. His wife passed away five years ago, and he hasn't married since.The house has also become a bit messy.

At that time, my father said that because of her death, Uncle Zou had been decadent for a long time. The pain of his wife's death caused him to lose his original paintings. Afterwards, he went outside for a trip, and he finally let go of his knot.

Now it seems that he is doing an idle job in the government, and it is not difficult to support his family.

In the afternoon, Zhong Yi and Yan Hui started packing up the sundries and cleaning the house.

Around evening, the few clean houses were ready for people to live in.

When old friends get together, most of them are endless things to talk about.

Yan Hui saw that they had a happy conversation, shook her head and went to the kitchen.

Zhong Yi hugged the flower field and went out to play, wandering around the nearby streets.

Some places still have some impressions, the scenery of Yundi is good, the sky is clear and clear.

Hua Tian took the opportunity to jump out of Zhong Yi's arms, and ran and jumped with his calves.

"Huada, don't run away, we'll be back later."

"Meow--"
