Chapter 106 Extra Story. New Year's Eve Dinner

Gu Chengqi and Yang Yiping were busy in the small kitchen. For a long time, no one spoke, only the lively sound of firecrackers outside the window and the crisp sound of pots and pans in front of them.

Gu Chengqi helped Jiong serve the rice, Yang Yiping put the crabs into the steamer, and cooked the vegetables again, the kitchen was immediately filled with the smell of the food.

"Your name is Gu Chengqi, isn't it?" Yang Yiping asked suddenly during the cooking process.

"Ah, yes." Gu Chengqi replied.

"You and Xiaoyu were classmates in high school, right?" Yang Yiping asked softly, "Now we are going to college together again, it's really fate."

"Ah" Gu Chengqi didn't know how to reply for a moment.

"Fate in this world must be cherished." Yang Yiping said suddenly, smiling at Gu Chengqi, "Xiaoyu is quite special, I have never understood what he was thinking, and I did things to him before. Had some pretty bad things. Now that I think about it, it’s pretty bad.”

"Well... There will always be differences between people, and you can't blame it all." Gu Chengqi said hesitantly.

Yang Yiping smiled, "Thank you, you are such a kind and good boy, with you around, his parents can feel at ease in the spirit of heaven."

Gu Chengqi was stunned for a moment, before he could understand the meaning of Yang Yiping's words, the topic was changed.

"Hey, these dishes are all cooked, please help me take them out."

"Ah good!"

Yang Yiping made several meat dishes, and together with the crabs bought by two people, they filled a large table.

"Hey, how do you do so many dishes, how can we eat so much." Qin Keng said helplessly, and got up to help get the dishes.

"It's not what you said, it's more lively during the Chinese New Year." Yang Yiping divided the bowls and chopsticks, "Lu Yun Lu Yu! Let's play after dinner, come over to eat first!"

"Wait a little longer..."

"No, come over to eat now, hurry up!"

Only then did the two children run over laughingly, talking one after another.

"Brother, let's go out and set off firecrackers later, shall we?"

"It's so lively outside! When can we go out to play?"

"Sit down and eat your meal first." Qin Lu pressed the two little guys on the chair, and then picked up the chopsticks.

After not returning for a long time, the scene at his aunt's house was already somewhat unfamiliar to Qin Zhi.A few people sat around the narrow dining table, chatting about something and nothing.

After eating, Qin Ji and Gu Chengqi took the two little guys out to set off firecrackers.When they first came back, they were still yelling excitedly, but when the Spring Festival Gala started, they had already fallen asleep on the sofa.

"Oh, these two little debt collectors." Yang Yiping said with a frown while clearing the dining table, "Just lying on the sofa and falling asleep, how many times have I told them, but I just can't remember!"

"Hey, forget it." Qin Keng stopped Yang Yiping, "Let them sleep, Gu Chengqi and I are planning to go back."

"Ah, you guys won't stay here any longer?" Yang Yiping's expression suddenly felt a little uneasy, "The Spring Festival Gala has just started, why don't you stay and watch TV or something?"

"No." Gu Chengqi smiled, "We'll just watch the replay then."

"Then, that's fine." Yang Yiping was a little disappointed, but still told her, "Be careful on the way back."

"Just ride for a few minutes." Qin Keng said with a smile.

"Then, when you're free, come over again!" Yang Yiping insisted, "Auntie will cook something delicious for you!"

"Okay." Qin Keng smiled, and put on his coat with Gu Chengqi.

On the streets on New Year's Eve, there is a smell of firecrackers. The streets are deserted, all the shops are closed, and the residential buildings are brightly lit, but the streets are empty.

"Although I haven't met your aunt before, it seems that she has changed a lot from before, right?"

"Well, yes." Qin Ji put his hands in his pockets, smiled and said, "It's really changed a lot. I used to be very anxious and nagging. This time, she looks more energetic than before. , and the tone has softened a lot."

"Could it be that when people reach their age, they have figured out a lot." Gu Chengqi laughed.

"Maybe, or maybe it's just because I haven't seen her for so long."

"Then why don't you stay a little longer?" Gu Chengqi asked.

"If I stay any longer, she will definitely keep us. Do you think it's possible for two more people to live in such a small place?" Qin Keng glanced at Gu Chengqi.

"That's right." Gu Chengqi clicked his tongue.

"That's pretty good." Qin Keng sighed and said, "At least she no longer blames others for all her faults like before, and she also found a job to make money."

"Yes." Gu Chengqi stretched out his hand, inserted it into Qin Keng's coat pocket, and grabbed his hand, "Everything will get better and better."

"Go home?" Qin Ping asked.

"You want to watch the Spring Festival Gala?" Gu Chengqi asked back.

"Well, not very interested."

"Then don't rush back, I'm still thinking about going around again."

"Where are you going?" Qin Keng looked sideways at Gu Chengqi.

Gu Chengqi was silent suddenly, and after a long time he said: "I want to visit my brother's tomb."

Qin Zhi was a little surprised, but he nodded quickly, "Okay."

So, on such a happy family night, Qin Zhi and Gu Chengqi rode bicycles for more than half an hour in the strong smell of gunpowder, and came to the cemetery in the suburbs.

In the same cemetery, Qin Zhi's parents and Gu Chengqi's elder brother were buried.

They bought some flowers and incense in the shop at the entrance, first went to burn incense for Qin Zhi's parents, and then turned around to look for Gu Chengzhe's tombstone.

"Do you know where it is?" Qin Zhi asked.

"Well, probably." Gu Chengqi said, "My mother sent me a text message."

"You've never been here?"

"No." Gu Chengqi paused, "I never dared."

Qin Zhi couldn't say any comforting words, he could only hold his hand, and walked with him among the tombstones, looking for that name.

"You said that when a person dies, do ghosts really exist?" Gu Chengqi suddenly said while walking.

"I don't know." Qin Keng sighed, "I'm afraid the living will never know about this."

"When my brother just died, I often dreamed about him." Gu Chengqi said in a low voice, "I dreamed that he cried to me, saying that he regretted it, and asked me why I couldn't hold him at that time."

"Don't say that." Qin Keng pressed Gu Chengqi's palm hard, "Your brother's death has nothing to do with you."

"But he could have survived and lived a better life." Gu Chengqi raised his head, and let out a breath of cold air towards the sky in some confusion, "My parents must be very sad, in their eyes there is only one son, and that is Gu Chengzhe. Now the two of them have no son, and I have no home."

"Don't say that." Qin Ji took Gu Chengqi's hand, "Look at me."

Gu Chengqi raised his head.

"You still have me." Qin Keng said slowly, "As long as the two of us are still together, we will always have a home, do you hear me?"

Gu Chengqi laughed, "Yes."

Gu Chengqi followed the number in his memory and walked forward. There were only dimly lit street lights in the cemetery, and at a glance, it was pitch black in the distance.

But the strange thing is that Gu Chengqi didn't feel scared because of this, walking beside Qin Keng, on the contrary, there was a kind of quiet peace.

Qin Zhi stopped suddenly, "There seems to be someone in front."

Gu Chengqi raised his head and looked in that direction, there was a middle-aged woman standing in front of Gu Chengzhe's tombstone.Even after such a long time, Gu Chengqi recognized her at the first sight.

"Mom..." Gu Chengqi whispered subconsciously.

The woman turned her head, the expression on her face was as surprised as Gu Chengqi's.

"Aqi?"

The woman turned out to be Jia Manyu.

"You..." Gu Chengqi didn't know what to say for a while, "What about you, at this time..."

"Are you back? When did you arrive?" Jia Manyu had a surprised expression on her face.

"I..." Gu Chengqi cleared his throat, "It's not long, I just arrived."

"You are here to visit Ah Zhe's grave." Jia Manyu smiled, "Me too. After thinking about it carefully, I don't even know what Ah Zhe usually likes to eat

Dao, he has been obedient since he was a child, and he has never been picky about food, and he seems to be happy to eat whatever he eats.Now it seems that I was so ignorant that I never considered what he really thought. "

Gu Chengqi was silent and didn't know what to say.

"I know Ah Zhe's death has nothing to do with you." Jia Manyu said, her eyes flushed, "I thought a lot after that, maybe your father and I really failed in educating our children..."

"I just came to take a look, and then I'll leave." Gu Chengqi interrupted Jia Manyu.

Jia Manyu froze for a moment, "Okay."

Gu Chengqi put the flowers he bought in front of Gu Chengzhe's tombstone, glanced at the name on the tombstone, turned and left without much hesitation.

"Aqi!" Gu Chengqi heard a voice behind him, "I divorced your father."

Gu Chengqi's footsteps paused, but he didn't look back.

There was some crying in Jia Manyu's voice, "If you are free, please call Mom, okay?"

Gu Chengqi gritted his teeth, but still didn't look back, and walked straight towards the exit.

Qin Zhi looked back at Gu Chengzhe's tombstone and Jia Manyu, and quickened his pace to keep up with Gu Chengqi.

"You don't intend to"

Gu Chengqi shook his head, "I don't know. I can't accept it now."

Qin Zhi said "hmm" and didn't say anything more.

"Even if they divorced, it wouldn't explain anything, and Gu Yuanguo probably brought it up." Gu Chengqi said, "I still have no choice but to treat her as my family."

"It's okay." Qin Keng comforted, "You can live your own life however you want. Haven't we already jumped over the most difficult cliff?"

Gu Chengqi smiled, "But after crossing that cliff, some people and some things were left on the other side forever."

"Baby"

"I'm fine." Gu Chengqi took a deep breath and smiled, "Living in this world is never easy. But I still believe that everything will get better and better, and it will."

"Yes, I will." Qin Qi stretched out his arms, hugged Gu Chengqi, and patted his back.
