Backtracking boat

Shen Mo was a little speechless all night after being struck by the shocking thunder brought by Ren Hong.Thinking about something on his mind, he took a shower and was about to go to bed when he heard the phone ringing. It was Xiao Yi. Shen Mo answered the phone and asked, "The dinner is over?" Xiao Yi's voice in the microphone was a little lazy, and he simply uttered two words : "Go downstairs." Hang up the phone.

Shen Mo hurriedly put on the pants on the pajama pants jacket, put on a coat and ran downstairs.Xiao Yi was not at the gate of the building, Shen Mo came out in a hurry, forgot to bring his phone, so he could only look for him in the community, and finally found someone in the garden of the community when the two of them met for the first time.Xiao Yi sat on the bench that Shen Mo had sat on before, with his long legs stretched forward, his arms resting on the back of the chair, and his posture had an indescribably romantic and freehand style.

After finding someone, Shen Mo heaved a sigh of relief, slowly sat down beside Xiao Yi, turned his head and asked him, "Why are you sitting here? Isn't it cold?" Even though he was wearing a cashmere scarf, Xiao Yi's face was still red with cold, he A pair of watery eyes looked at Shen Mo without blinking, and pointed to the sky with water: "Look at the moon."

--- "Look at the moon?"

--- "Yes, look at the moon."

The moonlight is good, there is no wind and no clouds, but I really don't know which house is elegant and interesting.Shen Mo smiled, and leaned closer to Xiao Yi's face, Xiao Yi was shrouded in the silver light of the moon, his whole body was half-lit and half-dark, and his whole body became colder and colder.Shen Mo drew closer, then pulled away suddenly, but his nose was still filled with the smell of wood and strong alcohol.Xiao Yi was dissatisfied with Shen Mo's movement, so he moved closer and pulled Shen Mo's coat sleeve with his right hand: "Look at the moon!" Shen Mo could be considered to have seen the drunken style of handsome Xiao Xiao, and couldn't help laughing: "Is Han Xing forcing you today? How much did you drink? You’re actually drunk.” Xiao Yi chuckled lightly, his voice mellowed by the night: “I’m not drunk, but a little dizzy. And I just picked up a meal at noon, two meals! Very hard work!” Shen Mo had the urge to raise his hand to touch Xiao Yi's head, but as soon as he raised his hand, Xiao Yi held it tightly and said, "Shen Mo, I'll sing for you!"

After finishing speaking, he leaned his head on Shen Mo's shoulder and began to sing: "The stars in the sky shed tears, the roses on the ground withered..." Xiao Yi's voice was magnetic, and he sang very nicely. He sang this old song softly and tuned There was tenderness in his words, and sentimentality in his words. In this season when his breath turned to ice, Shen Mo listened quietly, his eyes were clouded with mist, and he thought that he was probably drunk too.

The lyrics are very short, and Xiao Yi didn't seem to be enjoying himself after singing. He raised his head, wrapped Shen Mo's hand in his palm, and said, "Say something in Japanese, I want to hear it."

Shen Mo was a little speechless, what kind of bad taste is this after drinking, but Xiao Yi's grip was too tight, and he couldn't pull his hand back at all, so he could only pat the back of Xiao Yi's hand with the other hand, and said slowly to Xiao Yi: "Tonight's moon is beautiful and beautiful."

It may be because non-native speakers will become rusty if they don't practice for a long time. Shen Mo feels that his pronunciation is stiff.Xiao Yi saw that he didn't speak, and the darkness hid his expression, which made Shen Mo flustered for no reason, and he asked seriously to a half-drunk man, "Do you understand?" Xiao Yi gently let go of Shen Mo's hand: "I don't understand." Shen Mo patted his heart and joked, "I was scared to death. I thought the only advantage that could defeat you was gone."

Xiao Yi also laughed, and said after a while: "Although I don't understand, it sounds very good. It's very good." After Shen Mo said, "Thank you for the compliment." Looking at it, the atmosphere gradually became weird. Shen Mo felt his heart was about to jump out of his throat, but his body seemed to be frozen and he didn't understand.Xiao Yi's figure kept magnifying and magnifying in Shen Mo's pupils, and Shen Mo felt that the strings in his mind were extremely tight and tight.Unknowingly, Xiao Yi's face was only a dozen centimeters away from Shen Mo, and the two breathed and heard each other.Just when Shen Mo was about to suffocate himself to death, he heard a sentence: "Don't look at the moon, go home." Xiao Yi got up quickly and left, Shen Mo let out a deep breath secretly, and followed.

When Shen Mo returned home, he was afraid that Ren Hong had already fallen asleep, so he didn't dare to turn on the light. He walked to the coffee table in the dark to drink water, and suddenly heard Ren Hong calling him: "Shen Mo."

Shen Mo took the water glass and walked to the sofa and sat down: "Still asleep?" Ren Hong turned over on the sofa and said dejectedly, "Can't sleep. Why did you go?"

Shen Mo lowered his head and turned the cup in his hand: "Xiao Yi has some work to do." Ren Hong didn't care, put his hand on his forehead, and talked to Shen Mo, and seemed to mutter: "These days As long as I am free, I will think about the past. When I think about the past twenty years, my head is getting bigger. When my aunt brought Xiaobin in, I thought, I have a stepmother, I can’t be angry, I have to be right The stepmother's son is better. Who says seven-year-olds don't have a heart, they have a lot of heart. How can there be no hypocrisy in that good. But later, Xiaobin really kissed me, just like raising a little boy. Like a dog, I also really like him. In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed, the little kid has grown up, my own brother has grown up, and now he is taller than me, and he is also handsome, but handsome, do you remember? , At that time, he was not as high as the table, and he stumbled when he walked, like a little girl..."

Ren Hong finally said to Shen Mo: "Mozi, why do you think life is so chaotic, can't everything follow the track?"

After Ren Hong fell asleep, Shen Mo stood on the balcony in a daze, the buildings in the distance were shrouded in darkness, the neon lights were all extinguished, only the strangely round moon in the sky.Shen Mo looked at his figure projected by the moonlight on the floor-to-ceiling windows, and suddenly thought of an apt description - "Stand alone, like a shadow".

After the new year, it will be the Spring Festival in a blink of an eye. Ren Hong finally packed his things and went home reluctantly amidst the urging of phone calls one after another at home.Before leaving, Ren Hong asked Shen Mo again: "Is it true that you won't go back to Suzhou during the Spring Festival?"

Shen Mo was washing apples for Ren Hong, without raising his head, he said, "I won't return."

-- "Why don't you go to my house, you know my dad well."

-- "No, no, get out after eating the apples."

Seeing that Ren Hong was going to drag Shen Mo to stage an eighteen-mile farewell, Shen Mo rolled up his sleeves and kicked Ren Hong out the door with his suitcase.After Ren Hong left, the small room was quiet and lonely.Shen Mo sat on the sofa, remembering that his mother called him a few days ago to ask him when he would go back, and said that his aunt's family would also go to Suzhou to celebrate the New Year together this year.At that time, Shen Mo's heart sank, and he opened his mouth: "Mom, I haven't had time to tell you that I won't go back during the Chinese New Year, and I will make an appointment with someone to travel." Shen's mother could not conceal her surprise when she heard the words: "With whom? Huh?" Shen Mo knew that his mother had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Don't think about it, and Ren Hong." He heard an instant disappointed "Oh" on the phone: "Last time, your aunt said that she hadn't seen her for a long time. And you, you really won't come back."

"I won't go back, it's all settled. Now I'm relieved to hear that my aunt and the others are going too. Say hello to my aunt and her family for me."

Seeing Shen Mo's resolute attitude, Shen's mother could only give up resentfully, and couldn't help but chase after her: "Momo, it seems that your aunt's grandson can talk, and he called me grandma, grandma yesterday..." Shen Mo hung up the phone, his heart was so congested that he ate the glutinous rice balls hard to relieve it.

The previous taste of the New Year is reflected in the fiery red couplets and crackling firecrackers, but now the taste of the New Year is reflected in the city that is empty day by day.The subway, which used to be crowded to doubt life, can now easily find a seat.On New Year’s Eve 29, Shen Mo went to the office for a walk in the morning, and his colleagues from other places returned home early, leaving only a few locals chatting in the office, before noon they all disappeared, like Shen Mo This kind of single dog staying in the local area is unique, so the strange single dog has become the last gatekeeper.At noon, I simply went to the cafeteria to have some food, and after answering a call from Xiao Yi, guessing that there was no emergency, Shen Mo also copied his hands and went home for the holiday.

Passing by the supermarket to buy a batch of idle food, and when I arrived at the community, I first received Tianshui. Xiao Yi’s sister was about to give birth to a second child. His parents accompanied their daughter and did not return to China, but Xiao Yi was temporarily ordered to go back to Shanghai for his parents during the Chinese New Year. Visit friends and relatives.The ticket was booked too late, and the high-speed train was no longer available. After passing Tianshui's leash to Shen Mo, Xiao Yi hurried to catch the plane.Xiao Yilin looked at the large and small food bags in Shen Mo's hands when he was renting out, and said, "I wanted to celebrate the new year with you, so you cook some delicious food and send me photos." Shen Mo smiled He closed the car door for Xiao Yi, acted as a see-off again, and saw off another friend.

When Shen Mo entered the house, he locked the door, planning to live a decadent life of eating and dying for seven days.

On the 12th night, Shen Mo finally couldn't bear to let down the festive season, so he exchanged new rations for the glutinous rice balls and Tianshui.I made four dishes and one soup, but unfortunately I didn't eat much, so I stuffed them all back into the refrigerator.This year it is still banned, all thanks to the noise of the Spring Festival Gala on TV, Shen Mo watched it one after another, and managed to survive until 12 midnight, which can be regarded as fulfilling the mission of the New Year.During this period, Xiao Yi called and insisted that Shen Mo send him the photos of the dishes. He was naive and stubborn, and the two of them talked on the phone without nutrition. The radio waves did not bring the distance too close, and Shen Mo still felt lonely. .Lin Yiqi called at [-] o'clock to pay New Year's greetings, and when he learned that Shen Mo was staying in the local area, he excitedly planned to organize a small outing for the New Year.Shen Mo said that we can talk about it when the time comes, but he didn't take it to heart.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Mo didn't need to go out to pay New Year's greetings. There were no guests at home and he didn't need to be greeted and sent. He got up in the morning after washing and took care of the cat uncle. After taking Tianshui out for a walk, he went home and took off his clothes Get under the covers and read the e-book.It was warm under the quilt, and soon fell asleep.I don't know what time it was, when I heard the doorbell ringing suddenly, I put on my clothes and opened the door to see, Ren Hong stood at the door: "Chrome is here."

Shen Mo pulled him in: "Why are you rolling back?"

While taking off his coat, Ren Hong said, "Don't mention it. I've been home for the past few days, and Xiaobin's eyes never left me. When I saw him, he pretended nothing happened. I can't take it anymore. I talked to my dad this morning. I ran away after Auntie paid New Year's greetings. I said you were lonely in Beijing and begged me to accompany you."

Shen Mo snorted coldly, and said, "I beg you? I beg you? Okay, you take care of all the housework. I wish your little Bin lay beside your bed every night and stared at you to sleep." Ren Hong smiled wryly: "What do you think? ,about there……"

So the mixed-eating family increased to two people plus a cat and a dog.In the evening, Shen Mo and Ren Hongzheng kicked me and I kicked you to shirk who was going to reheat the leftovers. Lin Yiqi called and heard that Ren Hong was there, and shouted just right, saying: "Xiao Yi will come back tomorrow, we will come back the day after tomorrow." Go skiing in Changbai Mountain. I have already booked the accommodation, and if I can live alone, please report your ID number to me, and I will go buy a ticket!"

I didn't expect Lin Yiqi to be so sure of what he said. Anyway, he was idle anyway. Shen Mo and Ren Hong looked at each other and left.The economy class ticket for the first two days of departure is not much different from the usual first class ticket. Fortunately, there are still remaining tickets, and the impromptu travel plan of the four people who took advantage of it was so inexplicably implemented.
