A corner of ten years

On the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, that is, the second day after Li Cheng promised to celebrate the New Year with Tao Xiaodong, in the morning, Li Cheng was still sleeping, and Tao Xiaodong bounced in like a small ball, grabbed his arm and shook him, "Li Cheng, get up quickly, We're cleaning up today!"

Li Cheng, who was still in his dream, was not happy to be shaken awake, half-closed his eyes and saw Tao Xiaodong wearing a newspaper hat on his head with an excited expression, "What kind of outfit are you wearing?"

"Great cleaning! You said yesterday that you should celebrate the New Year in my way. Today is the day of sweeping the dust. Get up, hurry up!" As he spoke, he was about to pull the quilt.

Li Cheng took advantage of the situation to hug him over, turned over and pressed him down, pretending to be sleepy, "I'm so sleepy~ I don't think about it~"

Tao Xiaodong beat him again and again, kicking his feet around, Li Cheng stretched out his legs to clamp him, and continued to sleep, but Tao Xiaodong swayed back and forth like a maggot, and even hit his face with his chin, Li Cheng was arrested. He lost all sleepiness after tossing around, and pushed him away, "Okay, why don't I get up?"

The little ball bounced and ran to the bathroom, "I'll put the hot water on for you."

After a simple breakfast, Tao Xiaodong moved the paper hat on his head to Li Cheng's head, carried the mop on his shoulders, and asked someone, "You are tall, so you can sweep the cobwebs on the corner of the wall. I'll mop the floor."

Li Cheng chuckled, he looked up at the smooth and clean roof, where did the cobwebs come from?

In fact, the house is quite clean, there is an aunt who comes to clean it every day, and it can be tidied up in three or five strokes. Don't worry about hygiene. Tao Xiaodong's closet should really be tidied up.

Li Cheng stood in front of his closet and handed him the clothes one by one, "I don't want this one, it pills so badly, I don't want this one either, it turned white after washing, and this one, here And there's a hole..."

"This is a beggar's outfit, left on purpose!" Tao Xiaodong looked like you have never seen the world before.

Although he now lives in Licheng and eats from Licheng, he still doesn't want to classify himself as a foster lover and try to reduce expenses. If it weren't for the heavy schoolwork this semester, he would hope that Going to work does not cost Li Cheng's money. Now he is asking his classmates to find him a part-time job. If there is one that suits him, he will be qualified immediately.

Tao Xiaodong learned martial arts when he was a child. Although he hasn't practiced it in the past few years, his foundation is still there. It is not difficult to pick it up again. He can teach children and he should be able to handle it.

And Li Cheng is determined to change Tao Xiaodong's wardrobe. He finds excuses to throw out everything that can be worn but can't be worn. The last time he changed his look, Tao Xiaodong forgot all about it. Today it is necessary to make a good renovation. In the end, Tao Xiaodong hugged a pile of clothes and covered his face. There were only two or three clothes floating around in the wardrobe for spring, summer and winter. He pouted and said, "Throw them away, what a pity." .”

Li Cheng went to find him a bag, "We don't throw it away, we donate it."

While loading the clothes, he said, "We'll go shopping for new clothes later, isn't it the way you celebrate the New Year? Selling new clothes is an important item."

The weather was quite cold, so when Li Cheng went out, he wrapped Tao Xiaodong in his own scarf and made him look plump.

They drove to Qianmen Street. It was almost Chinese New Year, and it was very lively here. Children should like lively places.

Li Cheng pushed Tao Xiaodong, who was full of displeasure, into the store. It’s the end of the year, and all the discounts and promotions are very strong. Li Cheng still likes this brand. H&M is simple and generous, which is his style, and it’s the price of cabbage. He’s afraid to buy it. The expensive child was awkward again and refused to wear it. Tao Xiaodong stood there in a daze, and Li Cheng took the clothes and compared them. The clothes here are quite suitable for Tao Xiaodong, so he took a few from the shelf and pushed him to try them on. In the clothes room, Tao Xiaodong put it on for Li Cheng to see. Whether it was a knitted sweater or a shirt, it looked good. It was hard to see that Tao Xiaodong was still a clothes shelf. Tao Xiaodong came out with a pile of clothes, and Li Cheng took them all and handed them to the shopping guide.

"Either?" Tao Xiaodong looked at Li Cheng's posture.

"I donated all your clothes, and I bought them to accompany you." Tao Xiaodong, who had a very long reflex arc, seemed to be in the car when he recalled it.

Forget it, I bought everything I bought, and I will pay him back when I make money next semester.

The new year came according to Tao Xiaodong's pattern.

Tao Xiaodong took Li Cheng to buy new year's goods. The supermarket was filled with festive lights and filled with New Year's atmosphere. Andy Lau's "Gong Xi Fa Cai" and Chinese Doll's "Happy New Year" bombarded people's eardrums in turn. The wife led the lively grandson to pick up big live fish, the young lovers pushed the small trolley with supplements to honor their parents, the mother led the daughter, and the father led the son. The surroundings were full of joy.

Infected by the warm atmosphere, Tao Xiaodong rushed forward excitedly, Li Cheng pushed the shopping cart behind him, Tao Xiaodong took a shopping list to choose items, which he and Li Cheng studied at home for two hours. In the product catalog, Tao Xiaodong said that he could not fight unprepared battles, and Li Cheng was also very nervous by him.

In fact, Li Cheng hadn’t experienced this kind of New Year’s atmosphere long ago. His parents focused on dealing with the guests who came to visit during the New Year. Seeing that the house was very lively, in fact, they were the only ones who were busy. He and his younger brother had their own ways of pastime. Apart from the routine of sitting at home, the Chinese New Year is just a long holiday in disguise.Every year, he and Zhang Shijie and his friends take their little lovers to go abroad to avoid the cold. He is as hypocritical as Zhang Shijie, and he thinks Beijing is cold.

Now following Tao Xiaodong's single-minded preparation for the New Year, I am really touched by a long absence. The traditional New Year is still the most atmospheric. The thought of returning to the roots of fallen leaves in China for thousands of years has penetrated into his bones. Even if the world outside him is all good, it can't match it A bowl of dumplings at the New Year's Eve dinner.

Standing in front of a pile of colorful candies, Tao Xiaodong asked Li Cheng, "Xu Fuji or the golden monkey?"

Without even thinking about it, he blurted out: "Big White Rabbit."

Tao Xiaodong looked at him with a smile, Li Cheng looked uncomfortable and turned his face away.

Tao Xiaodong pulled Li Cheng to make a big purchase, sugar, melon seeds, beverages, fruits, fish, meat, couplets, lanterns, Chinese knots, window grilles... the cart was full.

After returning home, Li Cheng took the Spring Festival couplets and gestured to the door, Tao Xiaodong snatched them, "What are you doing?"

"Paste Spring Festival couplets."

"It can't be posted until the morning of the [-]th, do you understand? Fake foreign devils." Tao Xiaodong looked contemptuous.

Li Cheng was humiliated by Tao Xiaodong, so he went up and scratched his itch, "I made you arrogant, now you are becoming more and more lawless, let's see if you dare to talk to me like this next time."

Tao Xiaodong hugged his stomach and begged for mercy, "Don't dare, never dare again."

The two laughed and rolled into a ball.

On the morning of New Year's Eve, Li Cheng finally got his wish and stood on a stool to stick Spring Festival couplets. Tao Xiaodong took the lower couplets and horizontal batches and instructed blindly below, "The upper couplets should be posted on the right. Didn't ancient people write from right to left?"

"What do you know, horizontal scripts are written from left to right, so the couplet should be pasted on the left." After speaking, Li Cheng slapped "Chun Ri Xiang He Happiness Year" on the left.

Tao Xiaodong tugged at his trousers, "What nonsense, take it off quickly."

Li Cheng kicked him slightly, "What's the matter? If you don't believe me, go to Baidu."

Tao Xiaodong opened the door and entered the room, almost pushed Li Cheng who was standing on the stool down.

The result was true, Tao Xiaodong came back with his lips pouted unhappily.

"Am I right?" Li Cheng laughed at him.

He took it as soon as he saw it, and laughed at me, raised his foot and kicked off the stool, Li Cheng was startled by the sudden shaking, wobbled unsteadily, and subconsciously reached out to help Tao Xiaodong.

"Where are you touching!" Isn't that right, where are you touching?What Li Cheng supported was Tao Xiaodong's chest...

Originally, there was something wrong with boys, but isn’t that the relationship between the two of them? Tao Xiaodong is usually very sensitive, and he resolutely stopped any intentional and unruly actions, but now he blew his hair and stuffed the things in Li Cheng’s arms. entered the house.

Li Cheng yelled into the room: "Don't be angry! I didn't touch anything just now!" What can I touch if I wear such thick clothes? This kid has been in the house for three months, and the number of skin-to-skin kisses can be counted on the fingers. What are you still ashamed of?

Li Cheng went home at noon, and made dumplings with Tao Xiaodong in the afternoon.

Li Cheng was kneading dough for the first time, and put the ipad on the kitchen shelf, which showed the steps and techniques of making dumplings. Tao Xiaodong couldn’t make the stuffing. Back when Li Cheng said he was selling quick-frozen dumplings in the supermarket, Tao Xiaodong didn’t. This process is what I said about the New Year's map. When can't I eat dumplings, the key is to make this New Year's Eve dinner by yourself to have a New Year's flavor.

After working all afternoon, the dumplings that had gone through 81 hardships were finally ready to be put into the pot. Tao Xiaodong was very excited because it was the result of hard work. After a while, he lifted the lid of the pot to have a look. Li Cheng grabbed his restless hand and said: " Don't keep turning the pot, or it won't be cooked."

In the evening, hot dumplings are placed on the coffee table in the living room. Tonight they are going to watch the Spring Festival Gala. It has been ten years since Li Cheng watched the Spring Festival Gala last time. Waiting for Wanglaoji countdown on the coffee table.

Tao Xiaodong wanted to wash the fruit, so he was willing to put the table on the table like an offering. Li Cheng called him over and said that it was about to start. Tao Xiaodong rushed over with two plates of apples and oranges, and then Taking one from the basket, he said to Li Cheng, "Oranges or apples?"

Li Cheng looked at him maliciously and said, "I want to eat peaches."

I don't know that from that day on, Li Cheng began to follow Xiaobai to call him Tao Zi, taking a word from his name, with a fondness for it, which is quite smooth.

Tao Xiaodong threw an orange on him and bit off the apple, "Would you like to eat it or not."

The party was not very interesting, but I was very happy to complain.

"The Little Tigers can't even jump up."

"it's a pity."

"Did you say Dong Qing is Liu Qian's babysitter?"

"Take off?"

Tao Xiaodong went to the bathroom, and "Love Each Other" was sung outside, Tao Xiaodong asked through the door, "Who sang it?"

"Wang Leehom."

After Tao Xiaodong washed his hands, he came out and watched in front of the TV, "Why does Wang Leehom look so much like Sun Nan tonight?"

"Legend" is ethereal and melodious.

"Faye Wong attended the Spring Festival Gala 12 years ago." The two of them, who were constantly laughing, seldom stopped. "At that time, you should still be wearing crotch pants."

"Have you ever seen a 7-year-old still wearing crotch pants? But you were still a kid at that time, I'm curious, were you chasing boys or girls in school at that time."

"I want you to manage."

"Could it be a girl, let's talk about it quickly." Tao Xiaodong got excited, and leaned in front of Li Cheng, looking like a troublemaker.

"Eat your food." Li Cheng grabbed the cashew nuts and stuffed them into his mouth.

12点的钟声倒计时，10——9——8——7——6——5——4——3——2——1！

While Tao Xiaodong pressed the button on the small tablet, he and Li Cheng said to each other at the same time: "Happy New Year!"

Then there was the sound of beeping and cracking firecrackers on the ipad.

Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, the sound of firecrackers is a good sign.
