In ancient times, there was a ferocious monster named Xi, who would come out to harm people every year at the end of the year. Later, people learned that Xi was most afraid of the color red and noise, so every household posted red Spring Festival couplets and set off firecrackers on New Year's Eve to drive away the monster.
The new year brings peace and tranquility. This custom has been passed down since then, and the night of New Year's Eve is called New Year's Eve.
It's New Year's Eve. I don't know if there is a monster called Xi. I only know that my ears are filled with the sound of roaring firecrackers, one after another, which is really lively. There are people laughing at the wine table, and the people at the wine table are watching the Spring Festival Gala happily.
It’s called the flavor of the year.
I stood in front of the door and watched my stepfather's son Xiaobin and a group of neighbor children set off fireworks. In the night sky, stars and flowers were blooming. I kept my hand in my pocket, not because I was afraid of the cold, but because I was covering my phone.
, I'm afraid of missing someone's call. But till now, not a single call has come all day long, and I feel empty.
While my mother was busy in the house, I left without saying a word. Although it was a small town, the street lights were fully equipped, so the road was bright, and every household was setting off firecrackers, so it was not too dark. No
After a while, I walked to the door of my hometown. My cell phone rang and vibrated. I quickly took it out and saw that it was my mother.
"Xiao Qian, where have you been?" My mother's voice sounded very anxious. She must have been unable to find me inside or outside.
"Mom, I'm going back to the house here. I'll stay here today. I'll come over tomorrow morning to pay you New Year's greetings."
"You kid..."
I listened to my mother's complaints in silence, and finally said softly: "Mom, don't worry, I'm already such an old person." In fact, I couldn't sleep all night last night, even though my mother's familiar scent was in my nose,
Still can't sleep. My mental state is obviously not good today. If I rest there with my ears soft, it will definitely be choked.
I closed the line, took the key, opened the door and entered the house. Although it was deserted and not as lively as over there, it was my own home, so I felt at ease. Anyway, I had nothing to do, so I took off my coat and put it aside, and started cleaning. Before that, I put my phone on the table.
so that if there is a call, you can hear it as soon as possible.
But until I mopped the floor clean and put new sheets and quilts on the bed in my bedroom, no call came in. However, text messages came from time to time, all of which were New Year's greetings. I sat on the edge of the bed and read through them one by one.
I noticed that Xie Ya was among them: Zhuzhu, have a good New Year. There was also one from Qin Chen: Yu Qian, I wish you happiness as soon as possible.
After Qin Chen left at that time, I sent him a message and told him my number. He didn't reply at that time. Unexpectedly, he sent greetings on New Year's Eve. I typed a few words, but I thought it wouldn't work, so I deleted and rewritten them.
In the end, it was replaced by the official message: Senior brother, Happy New Year. There was no reply from the other side. It was the Chinese New Year and everyone was busy.
The phone I had been waiting for never rang. I lay on the bed and repeatedly pressed the familiar eleven numbers. I rubbed the green call button with my fingertips. I accidentally touched it. The screen displayed Connecting and Heartbeat.
He suddenly accelerated. A voice spoke in his head: Admit it, you just miss him.
With a beep, the connection was connected. She waited with bated breath for his clear voice, but she heard a sarcastic female voice asking: "Yu Qian? Are you looking for Ziyang? He is in the bathroom, do you want me to wake you up?"
"
The phone slipped and rolled to the side, and his heart sank to the bottom, with a slight chill. Ding Lan was with him... their relationship was so close that the two families spent most of the New Year together? Especially
It was the hint in Ding Lan's words that made my mind instantly confused.
After a while, there was a ringtone. I was startled. I sat up and stared at the vibrating mobile phone on the edge of the bed. I hesitated and reached for it. My fingertips trembled slightly. His name was jumping on the screen, dazzling and unscrupulous.
.
As soon as the call was connected, Xu Ziyang's voice came through: "Qianqian, are you looking for me? I just drank too much and went to the bathroom. I put my phone on the table and didn't receive your call." His tone was slightly anxious, and there was a hint of quality in his voice.
A little hoarse, I frowned and couldn't help but asked with concern in my heart: "Why did you drink so much?"
If you love someone, you must choose to trust. This is the first condition of love. He and Ding Lan, I choose to trust him.
Because Ding Lan's words are not trustworthy in the first place. Today is New Year's Eve. Xu Ziyang must live there in the old house. He will not be so unreasonable as to hang out with a woman at this time and not go home. And since Ding Lan wants to enter the Xu family
The door must first establish a good impression, and we will definitely not choose to get entangled at this time.
"Did you miss me? Huh?" An ambiguous voice whispered in my ear, and I blushed slightly. I insisted on going back here to live alone tonight. I just wanted to say something personal to him, so I decided to
Without reservation, he whispered softly to his lips: "Think about you?"
A pleasant laugh came, and someone said with satisfaction: "I didn't call you on purpose, just to see how long you can endure. Well, it's not past twelve o'clock yet. Yu Qian, if you are a little later, look
I won’t call you and scold you.”
I glanced at the clock on the wall. It was two minutes before twelve o'clock in the morning. I thought, maybe he and I can't spend the New Year together, so counting down together on the phone can be regarded as celebrating New Year's Eve in a different sense. "Zi Yang
, let’s count down together.” The clear and comfortable smile came again, and the corners of my lips couldn’t help but rise.
I didn't hear his response, but I heard his voice shouting in unison: "Ten, nine, eight, seven..." I no longer scrupled and shouted loudly: "Three, two
, one! Xu Ziyang, I love you!" On time, firecrackers roared in my ears, deafening, drowning out my last three words. It was the same on his side. It seemed that he was roaring something, but I couldn't hear it clearly.
Waiting for a while, there was a gap in the middle of the sound, and someone was heard on the phone that was not hanging up, urging him to go in. One of the voices was particularly obvious: "Brother, don't hide here and bully me. Brothers are calling you to drink."
Here." Then the phone was hung up, and a "beep" busy tone came.
If I heard it right, that was Xu Zijie's voice. It's not surprising that they would get together on this occasion. It also shows that Ding Lan was lying before. The two brothers fought, with half the victory and the loss, and they were still able to win when they met again.
To be able to talk, laugh and be harmonious is only what they can do with their tolerance.
I am not a person who is good at expressing love. Tonight, my head got hot and my blood was boiling as I shouted the words "I love you" to him. Whether he heard it or not, it was my deep love for him.
It was a kind of catharsis. My heart was beating like thunder, and my whole mood was filled with indescribable excitement. His beautiful and handsome face appeared in my mind, and I couldn't help but look forward to the arrival of the third day of the new year. I couldn't wait to see him.
I often see people talk about missing me, and I have also criticized them. I feel that the love is so strong that I can't resist the missing in my heart after only being apart for a day or two. After breaking up with him, I deliberately suppressed myself.
I used other things to distract my mind, and now when my emotions are no longer suppressed, I find that they are even stronger than before.
I was really tired from not sleeping last night, so I fell asleep not long after I closed my eyes. I felt a vibration next to my pillow, so I reached over and touched my phone. Without even opening my eyes, I put it against my ear and mumbled, "Hello?"
"Just when I thought I had dialed the wrong number and was about to put the phone down, a joking laugh came, which made me sweat and wake up instantly.
"Qianqian, are you asleep? This is the first time I hear your voice like this. It does sound like a pig, but I like it." Xu Zijie's tone sounded like a joke, but it also had an inexplicable intimidation, which made me feel
Trembling.
"What's the matter with you?" I asked cautiously.
But I heard him say: "It's nothing, I just want to wish you a happy New Year."
New Year's greetings at this time? Two o'clock in the middle of the night? I feel like crying but I don't have any tears. He really knows how to pick the time and makes it clear that he wants to punish me.
Sure enough, I just heard him say again: "I saw my brother hiding next to me on the phone before, which made me feel itchy. I thought that no matter how late the time is, I have to call you. Ha, there is really a surprise."
What a man's bad taste! He rolled his eyes and said patiently: "It's too late. If you're fine, I'm going to sleep."
As a result, there was a "click", and the other person directly pressed the phone. I was so angry that I could only stare. Inexplicable calls, inexplicable people, and finally hung up the phone inexplicably! There was a "beep" and a text message came over. When I looked at the screen, it was still Xu Zijie.
, clicked on the message, and was stunned. There was only one sentence in it: Xuanzhu, I really miss you.
I felt sad for a moment, if Xu Zijie said this jokingly on the phone, I would just ignore it. I couldn’t figure out what he was thinking. How much of the words were true and how much of them were false, and even if they were true, what did he think of him?
I was really moved, but I would not respond. There is no first-come-first-serve relationship in matters of love, and nothing can be corrected when mistakes are discovered. No matter who it was at the beginning, my heart was really left with Xu Ziyang.
Therefore, even if Xu Zijie was the only person who promised me in the game, I would not be able to fall in love with him.
The annoyance invaded me, and I couldn't fall asleep again. It was destined to be another sleepless night. The next day, the first day of the Lunar New Year, when I got up, my head was dizzy and a little achy. It was due to lack of sleep. After washing up, I felt refreshed.
some.
As soon as I went out, I bumped into Huzi's mother next door and asked me to come and sit at her house. I declined with a smile. Huzi and his wife also came out. They hadn't seen each other for many years. We exchanged a few words, but after all we were separated, so it was nothing.
Kechao found an excuse to go to his stepfather's house.
I was thinking about something in my mind and didn't pay attention to my surroundings. Suddenly there was a loud noise behind me, which scared me so much that my feet trembled. When I turned around, I saw that it was a few kids who lit firecrackers and threw them away as a prank.
On the back of my buttocks, I was wearing suede boots, and the fur was burnt by the firecrackers. This shows that the firecrackers are quite powerful.
Those little kids were not afraid of me. They made faces at me and continued to light firecrackers and throw them at my feet. I frowned. If I didn’t admit my mistake, these kids should be the ones Xiaobin led last night.
The ones setting off fireworks in front of the door.
Suddenly I heard a child shout: "Take the oil bottle!"
I put on a straight face and pretended to roll up my sleeves and walked towards them. The children scattered like birds and beasts, running around and quickly disappeared. The corner of my mouth twitched slightly, and I was a little embarrassed. Such a big person still cares about children. Since my mother
After I remarried my stepfather, people often pointed fingers at me, and this was not the first time I heard the word "stupid".
This is one of the reasons why I don't want to go home.
