My green plums are very sour

It's just that after hearing my "dissatisfaction", Ning Ran didn't show any intention of begging for mercy or repentance, her eyes were clear with a hint of cunning, her eyebrows were raised high, and the smile on the corner of her mouth seemed to have a deep meaning.

I frowned unconsciously, looked straight into her eyes, and murmured in my heart.There seems to be something wrong?

What did she just say?

"They collect firewood, I just plant an elm tree at home, and I don't have to worry about 'money' for a lifetime."

This... what is "planting an elm tree directly at home"?Since when did I become her family?Don't worry about it for the rest of your life?What the hell?

I tilted my head and meditated, and suddenly caught sight of Ning Ran's bright and smiling eyes, a thought suddenly popped into my mind, and I was so ashamed that I jumped up and down, but since there were people beside me, I had to suppress my reaction not to be too obvious.

"You're cheating, do you know? Treacherous!" I bit my lips, always worried that once I relaxed the muscles on my face, I would tremble involuntarily.

Ning Ran still pretended to be innocent, and asked me with wide eyes: "What? What's wrong with me?"

"You!" I was blocked by her tone and couldn't say anything.Her posture of digging a hole and waiting for me to jump into it really annoys me, it's so scheming.She used to be like this, and she is still the same now, as if she is sure that I will take the bait.

I took a breath, and my heart, which was still clamoring just now, seemed to be suddenly tied up with a rope, and it was forcibly restored to its original frequency.Thinking of those years of being frozen, I feel wronged and resentful in an instant.

Forget it, I'm not in the mood to continue playing this kind of charade with her. In this case, let's just let it turn over. Anyway, I'm stupid, so it's normal for me not to understand.

My expression quickly faded, I pulled the corners of my mouth reluctantly, turned my face away, pulled my wrist from Ning Ran's hand, and walked quickly to the side of the elders, regardless of how Ning Ran's expression was at that moment. stunned.

A Rui broke off a branch as thick as a forearm, and was holding it up in her hands to greet everyone to admire, "Look at mine, how about it? It's so thick, our family will definitely make a fortune in the New Year!"

Uncle Zhou slapped her on the back of the head, dumbfounded, "Aren't you stupid? Where do you take this stuff home?"

Dad also went up and joked: "Hey, Lao Zhou, didn't your daughter fold this for you, you should find a place to settle it."

"That's right, Lao Zhou, you can figure it out." Uncle Ning and aunts also laughed.

I was facing them, my eyes didn't wander, but I heard Ning Ran following behind me, sticking to my back, his eyes fixed on the back of my head as if they were real.

The mountain road is so wide, why come and squeeze me.I cursed in my heart, and didn't turn my head to look at her, I took a small step to the side as if inadvertently, letting Ning Ran emerge from behind me.

Fortunately, the elders didn't notice the movement here, but A Rui, a ghost, spotted it, winked at me, and was ignored by me.

Seeing that I didn't intend to talk to her, Ning Ran sighed moderately from behind, and didn't move closer.

I looked down at the twigs I was holding in my hand. I was so upset that I wanted to throw it away. I endured it and clenched it tightly. The uneven branches hurt my palms.I seldom show my temper like this, and I feel a little inexplicable to myself.But I know in my heart that it is because I seldom show my temper with Ning Ran that I have been eaten to death for so many years.

I don’t know when snow particles suddenly floated in the sky. They were a little bigger than rice grains. At first they were just a few scattered particles, but after a while they became dense and fell on the coat. When I wiped it with the palm of my hand, it immediately turned into a puddle of water and stuck to it. palm.

When I came back yesterday, I told Ning Ran that it might snow, but I didn't expect it to be true.

"Let's go? After a while, it will snow heavily and it will be difficult to drive on the road." Dad put his hand on the brow bone and looked up at the sky, greeting everyone.

Everyone had no objection and quickened their pace towards the parking place.

I buried my head and rushed forward, halfway through, A Rui chased me from behind, and as soon as I stretched out my arms, half of me climbed onto me.

"Why do you feel unhappy? Did Ran Ran provoke you?" Sure enough, she came to inquire about the military situation.

"No, it's too late and I'm very sleepy." I gave a reason casually.

A Rui obviously didn't believe it, "Tch", squeezed my shoulder lightly, then let me go and stopped, probably waiting for Ning Ran to follow.

I'm not interested in eavesdropping on their conversation, and I still keep walking at my own pace, closely following the steps of the elders.

The dads took the keys and went to the parking lot to pick up the car, while the rest of them waited on the side of the road.

Ning Ran and A Rui were the last ones, they came from the other side of the road when the car had to drive out.

It happened that my father's car was parked in front of me. I opened the door and was about to get in. Ning Ran took a step too late, and stopped me when he turned his back, "Call me on the phone later."

I froze for half a second, turned my face to look at her, turned around and got into the car without saying anything.

After the car started, I saw Ning Ran still standing there from the corner of my eye, her brows were slightly furrowed, and her gaze was as deep as a deep pool.

On the way back, I pretended to close my eyes and rest my mind, pretending to be drowsy, but my mind was full of thoughts and I was not at peace at all.

What am I doing here?Are you really expecting her to say something?In the environment just now, less than five meters away from both parents?

It's crazy.I sneered in my heart, secretly spurning myself.People in their 20s, why are they still so childish?

After I got home, I quickly changed into my pajamas and went to take a shower. I was already very tired, but when I saw a lifeless face in the mirror, I felt even more tired.

Although it was very late, but because of the New Year, there were still firecrackers outside the house from time to time, which sounded far away and felt unreal.

A cold bed is never a good place for a sleepy person.I lay on my side, curled up in the quilt and hissed, and the phone on the bedside table began to vibrate.

Of course I know who it is.

Before I turned off the lights and went to bed, I had turned off the ringtone of the mobile phone, but the sound of vibration transmission on the bedside table was still very obvious.In order not to be heard by my parents in the next room, I had to hold the phone in my hand.

I didn't intend to answer it, but when the phone rang for the third time, I accidentally touched the screen and the call was picked up.

"Hello? Shu Yu?"

In the silent night, all sounds will be infinitely amplified.Even though the handset of the mobile phone was not attached to my ear, I still heard the voice from the other end.I slowed down a little and raised the phone to my ear.

Ning Ran's voice sounded a little anxious and uneasy.

"are you there?"

"……Um."

"You finally answered the phone." She breathed a sigh of relief, and then lowered herself again, "I thought you were already asleep, and I was afraid I would disturb you."

"No." My attitude was very perfunctory, and I only popped out single phrases, and I didn't even want to say a long sentence.

There was silence on the other side for a while, only the sound of light breathing in the receiver.

"I'm sorry." This apology came so suddenly that I froze for a moment, not knowing how to react.

"I... shouldn't have deliberately teased you tonight." Ning Ran explained carefully, her tone seemed rather embarrassed, "Actually, you are right, I am treacherous, and I originally said that on purpose. You guessed right."

"It's my fault that I always want to speak more clearly and I'm afraid of offending you, so I always play smart to try."

I listened quietly, without interrupting her, and my intuition told me that maybe I would get the answer I was expecting soon.

"It may be a little sloppy and hasty, but I think the timing is right now and I can't miss it."

"These words should have been told to you a few years ago, but they have been delayed until now."

"Shu Yu, I don't want to just continue to be good friends with you. I hope our relationship can develop further. This idea has been rooted in my heart for many years, but because of my self-righteousness and stubbornness, it has no chance to come true. Over the past few years, it’s all my fault, I want to make up for everything I missed, and stop torturing each other. Even if there is only one chance to try, at least don’t let it become a regret.”

I put my other hand over my mouth to keep my heavy breathing from being picked up, but the beating of my heart became more obvious, and the whole room was filled with thumping sounds.

"Why don't you speak? Are you... don't you want to?" Ning Ran waited for a while but didn't see my reaction, and asked nervously, "Or do you think the time is not yet ripe? Wait a little longer? It doesn't matter, I—— "

"Okay, I'll give you a chance." I calmed down and interrupted her immediately.

Ning Ran was stunned for a moment, as if she couldn't believe it, she turned over and took a deep breath, the movement was so loud that I could hear it clearly through the phone.

I then added, "But that doesn't mean I don't care that you've been gone for so long without hearing from me. I just thought maybe I could give it a try."

It is impossible to say that I am not angry at all, but the hole in my heart is being filled bit by bit, and I am slowly recovering.

"I understand." Ning Ran's voice was much lighter, and a suppressed smile could be heard in the change of tone, "At least we've had a good start now. I think the ending will be happy." Not yet After saying a few words, she became complacent again.

This is probably called a little sunshine.I laughed dumbfounded, as if I acquiesced to her words.

"Shu Yu..."

"Ok?"

"It's nothing, I'm just calling you." Ning Ran's emotions seemed to be aroused, and instead of her usual calm appearance, she turned into a furry child.

I rolled my eyes secretly in my heart, pulled up the quilt and covered my head together, my whole body shrunk into a shrimp, and called her under my voice, "Ning Ran."

"what happened?"

"Nothing, just calling you."

After speaking, both of them let out deliberately suppressed low laughter at the same time.

What an inexplicable fun.
