years and years

City A is not far from City S, and it only takes four hours to take the high-speed train.Shuci took out his phone, put on his earphones and started playing music, packed his bag and put it in his arms, and sent a message to Mr. Mu.

He came home just before the Chinese New Year, and it was just in time for the Spring Festival travel season. The people around him were chattering about looking for a seat, and one of them's bags always touched his shoulders, so Shu Ci had no choice but to lean in a little bit.

You Yezhi didn't come to see him off, in fact, Shuci looked back at him several times before leaving the door, and said to let him see him off, but unfortunately You Yezhi didn't pay attention at all, looking at him from head to toe, he turned and went back to the house.

The scenery outside the car window quickly passed by, Shuci took out his mobile phone to take a picture, sent it to Moments, and edited two words after matching the picture: go home.

Click on the picture to return, click to return, this action continued several times, You Yezhi glanced at the word "go home" again, put the phone on the table, went to bring the easel, sharpened the pencil and prepared drawing.

It was bustling outside, You Yezhi put down his pen after a while, put on his coat and went to the supermarket.

Crowded everywhere, even the cars in the supermarket can't be pushed, and they are all people who come out to buy new year's goods.You Yezhi picked out some nutritional products for the elderly, milk and snacks, and carefully picked out some other things. After paying the bill, he took a taxi and went directly to Baishan Village.

Many foreign vehicles in the village were all parked on the side of the road.Every household has pasted up new couplets, and red lanterns are hung at the door, and the past is full of joy from a distance.

Two children ran out of the door, Shanshan was wearing thick clothes with pigtails, and was jolting out. When he saw You Ye, he raised a blushing smile, called him and ran towards him.

You Yezhi squatted down and put his arms around her: "My brother is holding something in his hand, I can't hug you anymore."

Shanshan nodded heavily, and ran away first: "I'll go tell grandma that you're here."

After the new year, the elders of the family came back. You Yezhi saw Sister Mi and his husband. After entering, Sister Mi hurried up to meet her. She was quite embarrassed and asked what she was doing with so many things. You Yezhi smiled slightly and looked at the two of them. He said hello and knocked on the door of his mother-in-law, and the other party replied to him to come in.

"Grandma, happy new year."

Grandma stood up, opened the curtains a little, and the room was not as dark as before.

"What's the matter, you don't like Chinese New Year the most." Granny leaned on her crutches and walked towards him. Her skin became slack as she got older, only her eyes were still shrewd.

You Yezhi stood there, bent his lips after hearing this, but his eyes were as calm as a calm lake.

Grandma turned to look at him: "You used to come after the new year, why did you come so early this year?"

"Mother-in-law." You Yezhi asked in a calm tone, directly expressing the doubts in his heart: "I just want to know who Sui Sui and Nian Nian are."

Granny's hand holding the crutches tightened for a few minutes, then let go, and raised her eyes to look at You Yezhi, her voice was very hoarse, and she asked, "What's the matter?"

A face flashed in my mind, nervous and worried.You Yezhi lowered his head: "After I moved there, I also heard the name Niannian from Shuci."

He looked up at Grandma: "Is his dream the same as mine? Why did you ask me to move there?"

Outside the house was the sound of Shanshan's frolicking, Grandma pondered for a long time, so long that Ye Zi's fingers began to turn cold.

"Even if I don't let you move there, you two will meet sooner or later."

indeed.

Because before he moved there, he had already met Shuci in the dessert shop.

Grandma turned to look at him and asked, "Do you still remember what I told you that year, past and present?"

Past life... past life and present life.

You Yezhi remembers.

His palms were cold, and many images of that dream flashed through his mind, Sui Sui chasing Nian Nian and calling him brother... Shuci called Nian Nian in his sleep.

Shocked and pierced through all limbs, You Yezhi looked at Grandma in disbelief, and finally asked, "You mean, Niannian is me... and Shuci is..."

Grandma nodded and said, "Your brother, Sui Sui."

You Yezhi staggered and took a step back.

He recalled every time he dreamed that he couldn't see people's faces clearly, but he only knew that the boy named Sui Sui was too delicate, and he had to pant for a long time after running two steps.And the self in the dream often ridicules Sui Sui, saying that he is a sick cat.

You Yezhi couldn't force himself to calm down, he once again thought of that night when Shuci shouted "Niannian"——

what did you dream aboutDid you dream that I was bullying you?

"But why, why..."

Why did he and Shuci dream about this?Are these things that really happened in the previous life?And the two people in this life are not related by blood, so why must the diction appear in his life?

Grandma reserved her words, and only told him: "You will meet each other in every life, and there is a reason for meeting."

for what reason?

You Yezhi didn't ask any further questions. When he returned home, it was already dark, and there were people coming and going on the street. When he reached the door, he vaguely saw a figure standing in front of the door. The lights in the corridor were on, and He Jianqi opened his eyes when he heard the sound.

"I'm back." He Jianqi laughed, wearing a cashmere coat, casual and decent: "No one answered your phone, so I came directly."

You Yezhi didn't know how long he had been waiting: "Is there something wrong?"

He Jianqi turned to let him open the door conveniently: "It's okay, I just came to see you, I brought some food, but it's a bit cold."

The door was opened, He Jianqi changed his shoes and went straight to the kitchen, took out the porridge and vegetables to warm up, turned his head to look around, and asked, "Where's the boy who lives with you?"

"Go home."

He Jianqi rolled his eyes and nodded, "Ye Zhi, think about moving out?"

You Yezhi closed his eyes and rested for a while, obviously not wanting to pay attention to this question.

The porridge is hot and steaming, and it was served together with side dishes. He Jianqi stepped on the cotton slippers and walked to the sofa: "I made it myself, try it."

You Yezhi opened his eyes slightly and said, "Thank you."

He didn't move, and He Jianqi didn't urge him, he thought for a while and asked, "Are you used to living here? Here."

"What's wrong here?"

He Jianqi smiled slightly and looked at him: "No, it's good. I think it's very inconvenient for you to live with that Shuci. If you want to move out, I can help you..."

"Thank you." You Yezhi sat up straight and interrupted him directly: "I'm fine here, and I won't move away."

"Can……"

"It's getting late, thank you for your meal, you should go back first."

The time was 35:[-] in the evening, which was actually still early, but You Yezhi couldn't let him stay here longer.

He Jianqi looked at the tip of his nose, which was white and weak, and asked, "Ye Zhi, can you stop pushing me away?"

You Yezhi stirred the steaming porridge with a spoon, his expression remained calm.

"You know my heart, you can tell me if you have something, and I will do my best to help you."

"no need."

"Leaf—"

"I said no." You Yezhi interrupted him again, and turned to look at him directly: "You can't help me."

There was already a sullen look on his face, but He Jianqi was not afraid of making him unhappy, and asked, "What's wrong with your body? Why didn't you go for a checkup?"

Yes, He Jianqi had already noticed something was wrong, and You Yezhi understood.

Tired, exhausted, too lazy to deal with it, this is what You Yezhi is thinking now.He closed his eyes, pursed his thin lips, as if all the blood in his body was rushing to his brain, he said in a trembling voice: "...Aren't you going? Okay, then you stay."

You Yezhi went to the house and locked the door, sat on the bed, quietly waiting for that moment to come.

He Jianqi sat there, looking at the door, very quiet.

It lasted until exactly nine o'clock in the evening, when there was a rustling sound coming from the room, He Jianqi walked to the door of his room and knocked "dong dong dong" a few times.

The air conditioner was turned on in the room, fine sweat came out from You Yezhi's forehead, and he curled up into a small ball. His hands were covering his chest, pinching hard, red and trembling, but this could not make him feel sick. Pain relief in half.

He Jianqi's voice sounded outside the door: "Ye Zhi, are you okay?"

You Yezhi ignored it, and after a while the pain subsided, and he dared to breathe hard.

Knowing that there was still someone standing outside the door, he changed his clothes and walked over step by step. The door was slowly opened, and he looked up at He Jianqi.

"Don't you want to know? I'll tell you."

He Jianqi and him looked at each other, and You Yezhi stood at the door: "I have had an inspection, and there is no problem. Don't ask any more questions, and don't waste any more time."

You Yezhi raised his eyes and looked at him, seeing his expression, his smile was bitter, and he said: "I said, you can't help me, and you don't need to help me."

With a bang, the door was closed and locked again.

The phone ding-dong, someone sent a message.

You Yezhi sat by the bed and looked back at the phone screen, it was a WeChat message from Shuci.

Standing outside the door was the person who had known him for several years, who had treated him very well, and who kept saying he could help him.But so what, don't waste your energy, you won't get anything.

And you?What will happen if you know?

"Book Ci!"

"Hey—" Shuci put back the phone, stood up and ran into the house.

Mr. Mu was stepping on the bench to post couplets: "Come and help me!"

The bibliography was unbelievable: "Oh, grandpa, come down quickly, you are asked to do this kind of work, and the neighbors will say that I am not filial if they see it?"

Old Mu snorted twice: "Who knows what you were doing just sitting there holding your phone."

Speaking of which, You Yezhi hasn't replied to his message yet.The scriptures pasted the couplet in twos and twos, then turned to Mr. Mu and said, "I don't even need to step on the bench if you see it."

Elder Mu kicked him so angrily: "You've grown into a big fool."

Shuci smiled and coaxed people to be happy: "That's because the food you cook is so delicious, otherwise I can grow so handsome and tall?"

This mouth likes to talk nonsense since childhood, but it is easy to make people happy. Mu Lao Yile squinted his eyes to see the phone interface of Shuci, and leaned over to ask: "Are you dating someone?"

With this question, Shuci didn't know why he was guilty, so he turned the screen of the phone to Mu Lao, and stared: "No."

"Then who are you waiting for?"

It is worthy of being a person who came out of the closet and severed ties with his family when he was young, and is at the forefront of fashion——

The bibliography was scrutinized, spread out his hands, and generously revealed the chat records: "No, really, take a look."

"Yo, little one?"

Shuci didn't know where his grandfather's affection for You Yezhi came from when he saw You Yezhi at the first sight, so he nodded and said, "That's right, it's Xiaozhi."

Elder Mu took a look, and asked in his soul, "Why didn't he reply to your message?"

Which pot is not open to mention which pot!

At this moment, the phone rang, and there was a message on the interface that You Yezhi had just replied. Shu Ci's eyes lit up, and he smiled, "Look! Come back."

Elder Mu looked at his grandson who was smiling like a two hundred and five.

Shuci asked at the beginning: What are you doing?He originally wanted to ask one more question if he had eaten, but he deleted it after typing it out, because he thought he could ask it twice.

You Yezhi replied: At home, drawing.

The light was on in the room, and there was a fragrance in the air. You Yezhi was sitting on a chair wearing glasses, his back was straight, and he was holding a pen in his slender fingers.It is also possible that he is facing the computer, wearing home clothes, working seriously and casually.

One picture after another came to Shuci's mind, so that he didn't pay attention to Mu Lao's suspicious gaze at all.

Ci: Are you on vacation and still working?Stop drawing and let yourself rest more.

Holding the pencil, You Yezhi looked at the draft on the paper, not very satisfied, so he tore it up and started the next one.

.:fine.

Shuci returned to the north room, Ge You lay on the sofa, took the orange with his left hand, peeled it with his mouth, and typed: What did you have for dinner?

In fact, he didn't eat at night, You Ye Zhihui: He just ate some.

Ci: Tomorrow can't be casual, no matter who you celebrate the New Year with.

.:knew

Speech: My grandpa said I wish you a happy new year.

You Yezhi held the mobile phone, and his mouth curved slightly: Say hello to grandpa for me.

"Grandpa! I wish you a happy new year!"

After he finished shouting, he typed: I won't do it for you, you come and pay him New Year's greetings yourself, that's the only way to be sincere.

The other party didn't reply, not even "the other party is typing", Shuci knew that You Yezhi didn't know how to reply him, just when he was about to type to change the topic, he saw "the other party is typing" on the interface.

Then in less than ten seconds, the other party replied: There is a chance.

The corners of Mu Lao's mouth were grinning to his ears when he saw Shu Ci, he looked very much like A Qiang who lived next to him, who was not very smart. He just talked about a girl who got married last month, and he smiled like this on the wedding day.

Sighing, shaking his head, the grandpa and grandson watched TV together, there was no party today, and they couldn't read the dictionaries, so they got up and gave Mu Lao a massage.

Elder Mu watched TV and asked, "Is the rented house comfortable to live in?"

"I'm used to it, it's good, it's still close to the station."

"How's the environment?"

Shuci thought for a while: "It's not bad, two bedrooms and one living room, it's quite big, and the landlord is also very nice. At first, I saw that my former roommate and I were students, so the rent wasn't that expensive."

Mr. Mu nodded, as if thinking of something, asked him: "You live with Xiaozhi, don't bother him so much to let him cook, and I know your temper, don't be impulsive in everything, understand?"

"Grandpa," Shu Ci patted his shoulders: "I get along well with him, although he was cool at first, but now we are friends, and I won't lose my temper with him."

Mr. Mu snorted coldly, as if he was trying to persuade his grandson and grandson-in-law to live a good life: "I think he has such a good temper, he doesn't talk much, and he is always worried that you will bully him."

"My God, are you my grandfather or his grandfather? You started talking to him without even seeing him?"

Elder Mu ignored him, patted his hand and signaled to go back to the house.
