did not meet tonight

It was past lunch time, and there were no restaurants in the small village. Gao Zhishang went in to buy some snacks and mineral water as he passed a small shop on the road.Sitting under the big tree at the entrance were a few women eating melon seeds and chatting. They kept looking at them and whispering with their heads bowed.Yu Yuanyuan felt uncomfortable being watched by them, and when Gao Zhishang came out, he hurriedly dragged him away.

Most of the young people in Baliping go out to work, and those left behind are all 50-[-] years old working in their hometowns to take care of their children. Since the new road was built, the transportation has become much more convenient, and they can earn a lot of money by farming every year. Life is better than before. Much better.Now is not the busy farming season, and the villagers are generally very leisurely, sitting in the same place every day, with long and short stories, and good and bad things can spread throughout the village in a blink of an eye.When they came back, they saw a few people looking around at the intersection, and when they heard the sound of the car, they immediately walked away pretending to be nonchalant. .”

"It's hard for an upright official to break up housework. We can't control other people's mouths, but with me and Captain Xiao around, they dare not do anything." Gao Zhishang said with assurance.

"Then how long do you plan to stay?" Yu Yuanyuan asked expectantly.

"It's hard to say, let's see if we can find someone tomorrow." Gao Zhishang replied.

"I don't know which day Ah Jian chose to move his parents' grave," Yu Yuanyuan murmured as he got out of the car.Xiao Yu frowned slightly when he heard her words.

The door was ajar, and Ye Jian was tidying up the house. When he left, he covered all the furniture with plastic sheets. Except for some dust on the floor, it was still clean, and the water and electricity were connected.The windows hadn't been opened for many years, and the room was filled with a musty smell. He moved all the quilts to the balcony to dry. The sun was still strong, and the golden light came in, which finally made the room a little more lively.

Hearing that they were going to live here temporarily, Ye Jian said straightforwardly: "Okay, one room is one hundred, for the sake of knowing everyone so well, I'll give you a [-]% discount!"

He made an "eight" gesture, which directly confused Gao Zhishang. Xiao Yu had long been used to it, and knocked him on the forehead. Ye Jian shrank back, covered his forehead and said, "Don't think It’s great that you’re a policeman, let me tell you, if you really piss me off, believe it or not, I’ll pour cold water on your quilt at night!”

"Ajian, those seem to be your quilts." Yu Yuanyuan pointed to the balcony and said.

"Then don't give him food!" Ye Jian said confidently.

"They bought a lot of instant noodles and biscuits in the small shop just now." Yu Yuanyuan once again pointed to the plastic bag in Gao Zhishang's hand.

"It's okay if I lock the toilet!" Ye Jian thought of a worse move, and Yu Yuanyuan gave him a thumbs up. Compared with Gao Zhishang's bewildered face, Xiao Yu didn't have any expression.Of course, it is impossible to lock the toilet. You have to eat what you should eat. There is nothing in the kitchen. Yu Yuanyuan boiled a large pot of water and made bowls of noodles for everyone.

Xiao Yu noticed several scratches on the back of Ye Jian's hand, and asked, "What's wrong with your hand?"

Ye Jian glanced at it: "It's nothing, just when I opened the window, I was accidentally scratched by the fence."

This house has been built for more than twenty years, the windows are still old-fashioned push-pull, and the fence has been rusted and rotted under the wind and sun. Xiao Yu saw that the iron filings were still stained on his wound, and said, "Go and get the iodophor and Get the cotton balls."

"How do you know I brought it?" Ye Jian asked in surprise.

He just looks carefree, but he actually thinks about more things than anyone else, and Xiao Yu knows that with his frugal character, he will definitely make the best use of everything.He cleaned up the wound on the back of Ye Jian's hand with a cotton ball, and applied iodophor on it. Yu Yuanyuan and Gao Zhishang looked at each other, and saw the surprised look in each other's eyes.

Yu Yuanyuan lowered his voice and said secretly: "It's the first time I've seen Ah Jian so obedient."

Gao Zhishang echoed in disbelief: "I've never seen Team Xiao treat someone so patiently."

Yu Yuanyuan asked curiously, "How did the two of them know each other?"

Gao Zhishang thought for a while and said, "It seems to be because of the jumping case last time. I don't know when I have become so familiar with it."

Yu Yuanyuan also looked puzzled: "I haven't heard A Jian say that."

They got together and muttered endlessly, especially the glances they glanced at from time to time, which made Ye Jian feel more and more flustered the more he looked at it, and couldn't help but said, "Hey, what are you talking about secretly?"

"I was telling Officer Gao that there are wild boars in the back mountain, and they often come down, so I think the door should be closed tightly at night." Yu Yuanyuan said with a sloppy look.

"Yes, wild boar!" Gao Zhishang said with a haha.

There are three rooms on the second floor. There is a red-painted bench in the living room, and you can sleep with a quilt on it. If you pay 100 yuan for a room, you must be joking. Ye Jian insisted on sleeping in the living room, arguing with Gao Zhishang. Unable to argue, he just lay down on the chair and couldn't get up. Gao Zhishang had no choice but to compromise.It was dark in the mountains early, Yu Yuanyuan nestled into the room to call Chen Zhe, there was no water heater in the room, Ye Jian took a shower with cold water, his hair dripped down, and when the night wind blew, he froze.

The light was on in the living room, and Xiao Yu was sitting on the bench, holding a half-burned cigarette between his fingertips, the ashes almost fell to the ground, and he flicked it lightly into the ashtray on the table.Ye Jian wiped her face with a towel and asked, "It's so late, why are you still awake?"

Xiao Yu looked up at him, put out the cigarette before standing up, wrapped his wet hair with a towel: "It's cool in the mountains, be careful of catching a cold."

Ye Jian rubbed it randomly, and said, "It's always been like this when I was a child, and I'm used to it."

Looking out from the balcony, you can see the round moon in the sky. The mountains and trees have become a blurred shadow in the night. The wind is very clean, bringing a coolness that has never been seen in the city. On the guardrail, he took a deep breath and said, "I haven't been back for more than three years."

When he walked into this house, Xiao Yu had already noticed the plastic sheets that had been put into the corners, and some of the furniture had been tightly covered. It is conceivable how much Ye Jian attaches importance to this place, so it is so layered layers of protection.He stood on the balcony, looking into the distance, Xiao Yu saw his back surrounded by moonlight, and suddenly felt that he had been standing for a long, long time, or that he had been used to standing here since a long, long time ago.

No one can see the past, but now, Xiao Yu can see the past that belongs to him.

Because it is too simple, but also because he is too lonely.

Xiao Yu sighed softly, walked up to him and said, "This is your home, you can come back anytime."

Ye Jian laughed, as if mocking himself: "This may be the last time."

He knows the uncle's family too well, this time he can stop it in time, and next time, maybe when he comes back, all he can see is ruins.Xiao Yu turned his head to look at him, the moonlight outlined his clear facial features, but his eyes, which were always bright, dimmed their brilliance at this moment.Xiao Yu stretched out his hand, stroked his cheek through his hair, and said with a slight smile, "This won't be the last time."

His fingers are long and slender, with strong joints, and the gentle touch is gentle like never before.Ye Jian stared at him blankly, before murmuring: "Xiao Yu, you"

The sound of the door opening interrupted his unfinished sentence. Gao Zhishang walked out of the room yawning, glanced at the two people on the balcony, and asked casually, "Captain Xiao, you guys are still awake!"

Xiao Yu withdrew his hand and said, "It's late, go back to your room and sleep."

"It's agreed that I'll sleep in the living room." Ye Jian pointed to the bench and said.

"You have two choices, one we stand here until dawn, two you go to the room, I'm in the living room." Xiao Yu spoke in a leisurely manner, but there was no room for negotiation at all.

Ye Jian could only raise his hand to surrender: "If I had known this, I wouldn't have argued with Officer Xiao Gao just now, it would be a waste of effort."

The cries of beasts, insects and birds kept coming from outside the house, which turned into the best lullaby in the deep night. A house, four people, at this time, they don't know what kind of bizarre things will happen next.
