The lively years have passed, and their family is going back to Songjiang Town to bid farewell to their grandparents and uncle's family. The little niece stuffed a piece of candy in Fang Qingqing's pocket, expressing her love for her aunt with the utmost sincerity.

On the way, Fang Qingqing told her parents that she was going to Ping'an Town to see Zhong Li.She has already gone to college, and her parents have nothing to worry about, so they tell her to be careful and call if something happens.

Zhong Li is also from a small village, she is ten years older than Fang Qingqing, and the two of them are not at an age where they can play together, but no matter before Fang Qingqing moved away at the age of eight, or later when she returned to her hometown during winter and summer vacations, they got along best in the village It is Zhong Li.

Especially every year when Fang Qingqing returns to the small village during the summer vacation and Zhong Li also returns from vacation, the two of them release the ducks together and drive the ducks to the pond. After taking a nap until the sun went down, the two called the ducks home.On days like this, Fang Qingqing was able to last the entire summer vacation, and that was the happiest time for her in this small village.

After a few years, Zhong Li will be 29 years old. After graduating from college, she worked as a nurse in the Pingan Town Hospital. She has never been married. There is a big conflict with the family, and it is difficult to return home during the Chinese New Year.

Fang Qingqing called Zhong Li at the bus station in the town, Zhong Li told her not to wander around and came to pick her up immediately.Sure enough, in about 10 minutes, she saw that sister riding a small electric scooter, waving at her in a chic manner riding a Harley.

Fang Qingqing also smiled and waved to her, and when she turned in front of her, she squeezed into the seat, hugged her sister's waist and said, "Let's go!"

Zhong Li said with a smile while driving: "Where are you going, it's such a cold day, go back to my place to cook hot pot."

Fang Qingqing has no objection, she just wants to see Zhong Li and talk to her, she can go anywhere, it's better at home.

The two returned to Zhong Li's small courtyard in the cold wind, with red brick courtyard walls and red brick houses.After entering the yard, parked the electric car in the small warehouse at the door, Zhong Li led Fang Qingqing into the house.Fang Qingqing also came here for the first time. The house is not wide on the left and right, but the depth is very long. The entrance is a small kitchen, and the left door leads to the living room, and behind the living room is the bedroom.

The room is not too big or too small, more than enough for one person.The furnishings in the house are simple and tidy.Zhong Li poured Fang Qingqing a cup of hot water, and said, "It's warm and warm. I'll go and wash the vegetables. I've bought all the mutton. I can eat it in a while."

Fang Qingqing came out of her hometown after ten o'clock, and it was almost twelve o'clock now, but she was not hungry at all, so she said, "Don't be busy, I'm not hungry yet, let's sit down and talk for a while."

Zhong Li pinched her face, Fang Qingqing shivered from the cold hands, Zhong Li smiled and said: "You are not hungry, I am still hungry, you sent a text message yesterday saying that you would come over, I made a special shift , I didn’t get off the night shift until eight o’clock this morning, and I haven’t had a meal yet.”

"Hey, let's wash the vegetables together, so hurry up." Fang Qingqing also said with a smile, she knew that Zhong Li would not be polite to her. There is no need to hide, no burden.

The two moved quickly, and they washed the dishes in a short while, plugged in the electric pot on the dining table in the living room, boiled the bottom of the pot, and arranged various dishes and ingredients. Zhong Li took a bottle of beer from the window sill and poured it on Fang Qingqing said: "I'm in college, can I have a drink?"

Fang Qingqing set up two cups and said with a smile: "I haven't drank it, so pour me less."

Zhong Li poured her half a glass, poured a full one for herself, then raised the glass and said, "Hey, you gave it to me for the first time, let's celebrate." Then she couldn't help laughing.

Although Fang Qingqing is still innocent, she also knows that what she said has other meanings, ignores her jokes, raises her glass and clinks with her, and then says: "Be careful, I drink too much, I'll stay at your house!"

"If you wish, you can hold on as long as you want, not short of your half-mouthful of food." Then he raised his glass and took a big sip.

Fang Qingqing tried to take a sip, but it was very difficult to drink, and she couldn't tell what it tasted like.She wrinkled her nose, put down her wine glass, and hurriedly fished a chopstick dish from the pot.

Zhong Li looked at her with a smile through the heat from the pot, took another sip of wine on her own, and then started to eat meat and vegetables.

The two chatted while eating, Zhong Li asked about her school situation, she asked Zhong Li about her work situation, there had never been a generation gap between the two of them.Sometimes Fang Qingqing wonders why Zhong Li never dislikes her as a brat who doesn't understand anything.

And Zhong Li told her about the troubles at work and at home, and she didn't hide it at all, without the self-righteousness of an adult.

"By the way, you are also liberated. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and no one cares. Have you ever fallen in love? Tell me and I will help you refer." Zhong Li teased her across the table.

"No, this is only the first semester." Fang Qingqing said blushing, not sure if it was because of the wine, shyness, or the heat.

"If you like it, be brave, boy!" Zhong Li continued drinking.

Fang Qingqing couldn't help thinking of Shen Xiaoya, should she be brave in such a situation?

Zhong Li looked at Fang Qingqing's face, laughed, took a spoonful of vegetables for her, and said, "It seems that I have a goal."

"Have you ever liked someone?" Fang Qingqing didn't answer her, but asked instead, she had never talked about relationship issues with Zhong Li before.

"Of course, I'm not a rock." Zhong Li said disapprovingly.

"Then did you say it?" Fang Qingqing continued to ask, she didn't seem to realize why Zhong Li had to confess their relationship.

"I said it." Zhong Li looked at her with a smile, then lowered her head to fish a chopstick of vegetables from the pot.Through the dense heat, Fang Qingqing felt that Zhong Li seemed to be a little different.

"Then what?" Fang Qingqing asked softly after a while.She knew that she might be touching Zhong Li's sadness, but she really wanted to know what happened afterwards.

"No then, if people don't like it, that's it." Zhong Li still said with a smile, and then seeing Fang Qingqing on the other side who was hesitant to speak, she reached out and knocked Fang Qingqing on the head, saying: " What are you thinking, I am not married now, not because I am sad, but because there is no one in this small town that I am interested in."

Zhong Li's words were a bit exaggerated, but Fang Qingqing really felt that she was not suitable for this small town. She was very beautiful, strong in work ability, and very aggressive, but because her father had been in poor health, she did not dare to go too far. Although there are many conflicts at home, she still sticks to the place closest to home.

The two chatted while eating, and didn't finish eating until after two o'clock.After clearing the table, Zhong Li made a pot of tea, then put a blanket on Fang Qingqing, and said, "Open the window to let the air in, it smells like mutton."

Fang Qingqing leaned on the sofa, she felt a little dizzy, although she only drank half of the glass of wine.

"Are you still leaving today?" Zhong Li asked after opening the window, turning around and sitting beside her.

"Don't go, take me in for a night, I might be drunk." Fang Qingqing looked at her lazily and said.

"No, it's only half a glass. You can't drink too much." Zhong Li stood up and patted her head. She didn't have a fever, but her face was red. It seemed that she had drunk too much.

"Go to the bedroom and sleep for a while." Zhong Li couldn't help laughing as she looked at her pitiful appearance.

"No, just sit here for a while to cool off." Fang Qingqing called home and told them to go back the next day.Putting down the phone, he patted the seat beside him, asked Zhong Li to sit back, and then leaned on her body, quietly watching the snowflakes falling again outside the window.

After sitting for a while, when Zhong Li thought Fang Qingqing was asleep, she heard Fang Qingqing's whispering voice: "Zhong Li, I seem to like a girl."

Zhong Li didn't speak or move. She waited for Fang Qingqing's next words, but after a while, she could only hear the gentle breathing in her ear.She turned her head gently, and saw that Fang Qingqing had fallen asleep, and her brows were slightly frowned on her face that was gradually fading from childishness.

Zhong Li tugged at the blanket on her body, stretched out her arms around her shoulders and hugged her tightly, then turned her head and quietly looked at the snowflakes outside the window, feeling the cold wind blowing in.
