comb up not to marry

Nancheng has a lot of rain in spring, and although there are only a few strands of cow hair falling on the ground, the ground has been densely wet for a long time.A small number of potholes formed a small water barrier. Passers-by cars roared by, and pedestrians on the side of the road turned their umbrellas to resist the sewage, but in the end their hair was wet.

Miao Ning is not in the habit of reading the weather forecast, because she feels that the forecast is not accurate, so there is no need to waste time browsing.

But if she informed Ye Huaijin of her whereabouts in advance, Huaijin's character would definitely tell her to bring an umbrella.

But she has always been lazy, and she would rather walk in the rain than occupy her exquisite handbag with an umbrella.

On this point, Gu Miaoning and Ye Huaijin are completely different.

Miao Ning got off the plane and dragged her suitcase and walked in the light rain, thinking that the rain falling on her hair would dye her hair white, or make her head grow small mushrooms.

Miao Ning is always imaginative. If you ask Ye Huaijin this question, Ye Huaijin will definitely say: "The temperature of rainwater is lower than that of the human body, and it contains a lot of bacteria. When it falls on the human body, it will easily lead to the invasion of human body by dampness and diseases."

"Oh, what if it rains hot?" Gu Miaoning asked Ye Huaijin.

"Hmm..." Ye Huaijin thought for a while, "Think about it, if steel is exposed to rain once, it will slowly rust and oxidize, but it's hard to see with the naked eye."

"But we are neither iron nor steel." When she said this, Miao Ning was frowning and struggling to solve a function multiple-choice question.

Ye Huaijin glanced at the test paper, took the pen from Miaoning and chose A directly, "The chairman said that people are iron, and food is steel."

"Eh? How about taking a bath?" Miao Ning raised her eyebrows in disbelief.

"Well…"

Ye Huaijin couldn't say no to Gu Miaoning, and he wasn't angry every time he was defeated.Ye Huaijin is keen on adjusting and buffering the relationship in the family.

Miaoning came to Nancheng because of a business trip sent by the newspaper. If she said that she came to see Ye Huaijin on purpose, it would be too hypocritical. After all, she and Ye Huaijin have not seen each other for ten years, and they both turned 30 this year.

Miao Ning couldn't help laughing when she thought of the joke she had agreed to be each other's bridesmaids.

The newspaper office booked a nice hotel, Miao Ning quickly finished packing her clothes, lay comfortably on her side on the big bed, and looked out the French windows with her head propped on her hands.

There was a small air gap left by the window, and the rainy season suddenly returned to sunshine in the afternoon. The glass window refracted and divided the two battlefields, and half of the sky was covered with thick clouds, which was suffocating.In the other half of the sky, looking at the setting sun under the Nanshan Mountain in the distance, it is inseparable from the bustling world. Little bits of residual light have worked hard to dye large swathes of clouds red.

The weather in Nancheng has always been cloudy and cloudy.

Miaoning got under the covers, she didn't want to go out to eat, the fatigue of the journey made her forget about hunger, she just wanted to have a good sleep.

If she met a table of delicious food in her dream, it would be considered a full stomach, Miao Ning thought so.Sure enough, Miaoning had a dream at night. In the dream, Ye Huaijin made her favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, chopped pepper fish head, braised lion head, shredded fish-flavored pork, plus two side dishes and a bowl of shrimp and winter melon soup.

Miao Ning said: "Today, the two of us can't finish eating."

Ye Huaijin placed two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and she said, "There are also mom and dad."

In the dream, Miaoning cried, she didn't know if she was dead or if her parents were alive.

Miao Ning held the job bowl like a god, looking at the three people talking and laughing in front of her, at a loss.

Seeing this, mother put ribs into her bowl and said, "Ningning, why don't you eat it? Eat more to grow taller. Look, Huaijin is almost half a head taller than you."

Mother's voice and appearance are the same as ten years ago.

Has time stood still, or gone backwards?

When the dream woke up, the pillow was wet.

Miaoning got up and carefully looked at her emaciated self in the mirror, there were a few fine lines around her eyes, and her skin was a little loose.

These traces that once appeared in the age group of "mother" have all migrated to her body, but she is still alone.

Miao Ning learned how to make up when she was 16 years old. At that time, she got up very early and kept tinkering with her face. She had to wait until Ye Huaijin kept urging her before she gave up. She reluctantly followed Ye Huaijin to school.

Miao Ning splashed water on her face, chasing her thoughts back, she took out the cleansing cream, lathered it, rinsed it, and dried her face with a towel.Looking at her pale face in the mirror, Miao Ning patted her face vigorously. This is her experience. A blush will make her look more energetic or natural.

Put on light makeup, and tie her waist-length hair into a ponytail, a capable and slim Gu Miaoning stands in front of her eyes.But she used a little too much base makeup today, because she had more spots on her face, maybe age spots, she laughed at herself.

When calling Ye Huaijin, Miao Ning took chances. After all, she saved the number from ten years ago. When the call really got through, Miao Ning opened and closed her lips and didn't know where to start. She only heard that Ye Huaijin had traveled through many years. voice: "Hello?"

Miao Ning was speechless.

Seems to be sensitive.

"It's...Miaoning?" Ye Huaijin asked calmly.

The relaxed tone seemed to be asking, do you want to go home for dinner tonight?

"Well it's me."

"Miao Ning, have you received the invitation? Your phone number is empty, and the address is still left seven or eight years ago."

"Received, the previous landlord handed it over to me." Miao Ning took out a bronzing red wedding invitation from her bag.

Ms. Gu Miaoning is sincerely invited to attend the wedding of the bride Ye Huaijin and the groom Yu Guangru.

"It happens to be May Day, are you coming back?" Ye Huaijin continued to ask.

There are still three days until May Day.

Miaoning tapped the invitation with her fingertips and said, "I've already returned to Nancheng."

Miao Ning added, "It's just because of work. Recently, the newspaper planned a section event, which happened to be in charge of me, mainly to film the changes in the trajectory of my hometown over the years."

Ye Huaijin listened quietly to Miaoning's words, "Oh, so, Miaoning, do you need help? Cousin Guangru is from the Urban Planning Bureau, and he knows a lot about it. With his help, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

Be polite, Ye Huaijin will not mention anything about attending the wedding.

Miao Ning opened the curtains, the rainy season in Nancheng was foggy and chilly, "I don't have time to come to your wedding."

"It's ok."

There was no emotion in Ye Huaijin's tone.

"Then, goodbye." Miaoning said.

Ye Huaijin took it easy, "Miao Ning, can I find your WeChat at this phone number?"

"can."

"Then I'll add you first, and then recommend Yu Fengyi's business card to you. You can contact him directly."

Miao Ning didn't react for a while, "What? Who?"

"Guangru's cousin, it's your job." Ye Huaijin reminded.

"Oh, whatever you want." Miao Ning was upset and perfunctorily hung up the phone.

Having not seen each other for ten years, Miao Ning imagined the first wording of the reunion countless times.For example, long time no see, don't come here without any problems.Or, in tears.

In fact, they didn't even exchange a word of pleasantries.

Ye Huaijin was very efficient, Miao Ning immediately had a friend request on her phone.

Miao Ning touched Ye Huaijin's circle of friends, "friends only show circle of friends for three days"

Add friends successfully.

Soon Ye Huaijin recommended another WeChat business card.

No more news.

Ye Huaijin's profile picture is a handwritten name, elegant lower case.

If nothing else, Ye Huaijin should be engaged in literature.

In junior high school, Miaoning and Ye Huaijin registered a QQ account together.Miao Ning groans in the space every day, carrying non-mainstream materials in the small station to decorate the space.

Ye Huaijin didn't open the pass space, nor commented on it.

Miao Ning remembers one time, she was lying beside Ye Huaijin late at night, she was so idle that she pasted, copied and sent a message on the Internet, "Cowards are afraid of happiness, they will get hurt when they touch cotton, and sometimes they will be hurt by happiness." '

Messages, comments and private chats are all about love.

Miao Ning replied happily.

The next day Ye Huaijin woke up and saw Miao Ning talking.

Ye Huaijin said, "This is Dazai Osamu's "No Longer Human""

Miao Ning asked, "How do you know?"

"Seen."

Miaoning was slightly surprised.

From that time on, Ye Huaijin had the shadow of wanting to engage in literary work.

This is a very strange place, there is a person who lives with you day and night, but she always maintains a sense of mystery and surprise that is intriguing.

Miao Ning finished packing and went downstairs, and took an umbrella provided by the hotel for free.

Miaoning ignored Ye Huaijin's recommended WeChat.

The South-to-North Water Diversion Project, Nancheng happened to be on the line, and the rapid development made the whole city look brand new.Miaoning stopped and walked, overlapped with the past memories, and could vaguely find some shadows of the old road.However, the building that I once thought was very tall in my memory turned out to be only five or six floors.

When I was young, I saw the sky was the sky.

Miao Ning held an umbrella and hung a camera around her neck, taking pictures casually.

The deep-rooted muscle memory of footsteps unconsciously guides Miaoning back home.

At a glance, the house has been demolished and has become a pile of ruins.Why did Ye Huaijin not tell her about the demolition of the old house? Could it be that Ye Huaijin embezzled the demolition funds?

Miaoning looked at the devastated old site and shook her head. She was sure that Ye Huaijin would not do this.It's just that the demolition of the old house, Ye Huaijin should at least speak up for himself.

A notification sounded on the phone, and someone took the initiative to add Miao Ning as a WeChat friend.

Note, Yu Fengyi.

Look, Ye Huaijin is really efficient.

Miao Ning was tired from walking, so she sat in the roadside milk tea shop to have a rest.

Yu Fengyi sent a WeChat message: [Hi, I'm Yu Fengyi. 】

Miaoning replied directly: [Hello.Gu Miaoning, I am in Nancheng Primary School. 】

Two 10 minutes later.

Yu Fengyi: [I'm here, what clothes are you wearing? 】

Miao Ning glanced at the white long sleeves: [Black. 】

Yu Fengyi: [Not here. 】

Miao Ning: [sorry, I think we have missed it.I have already walked to Nancheng Middle School. 】

Miao Ning took a big mouthful of pearls, he should understand that she is not interested.

Yu Fengyi was typing, and after a few seconds: [Xiangzhang Road is closed, now it takes 10 minutes to walk from elementary school to middle school. 】

so?

Yu Fengyi's second WeChat: [Ye Huaijin sent your photo, I think I saw you, you are wearing white clothes. 】

No one thought about anything more thoughtfully than Ye Huaijin.

Miaoning is used to this kind of "goodness".

Miao Ning raised her head, a man in casual attire with a black checkered umbrella approached from outside the rain curtain, he couldn't see his face clearly.

Miao Ning asked the milk tea shop for a cup of strawberry pearl milk tea, the whole sugar kind.

The man approached and put away the umbrella at the door.He is tall and well-proportioned, with short and shattered hair, three-dimensional facial features, and especially outstanding eyes.

Miaoning narrowed her eyes slightly, he is very handsome.

Yu Fengyi sat opposite to Miaoning, "Miss Gu, hello."

Miao Ning pushed the milk tea to Yu Fengyi, "Hello, Mr. Yu. I made a little joke just now, don't take it to heart. I ordered it for you, and apologize."

"Thank you."

"The weather in Nancheng is really strange..." Miao Ning sighed.

"There will be showers in the next few days." Yu Fengyi replied.

"Oh." Miao Ning nodded, "By the way, Mr. Yu, Ye Huaijin said you are Yu Guangru's cousin, so Yu Guangru looks very similar to you?"

Yu Fengyi raised his eyebrows, "Huh? You are Ye Huaijin's younger sister, have you never met Yu Guangru?"

Miaoning smiled and asked again, "Mr. Yu, why don't you drink milk tea?"

Yu Fengyi pushed back the milk tea, "Thank you, no sweets."

"Oh."

Miao Ning took the milk tea, inserted the straw, took a deep breath, the whole sugar was so sweet that it was bitter, "Let's go then, let's go around."

The day she received the invitation was the first time Miao Ning saw the name Yu Guangru.
