Meet·Lijiang

Relying on the navigation all the way to guide the way, when it was dark, Zhuang Zijing finally arrived in Judian.Xiao Yang’s car dealership has taken the car away, and the high-wattage energy-saving lamp at the door has been turned off. In the dim light, Guibao and his mother burned the car with wooden strips removed from the motorcycle packing box at the door of the shop. There is a fire in the hot water, and the air is filled with the faint smell of burning wood.

When Zhuang Zijing leaned the car to the door of the garage, she and Guibao mother and son stared at the beautiful car for a long time, and finally recognized in the dim light that the girl who got out of the car was the beautiful sister Zhuang Zijing from Yang Hui's hometown. .

After saying hello to He Guibao's mother and son, Zhuang Zijing went straight up the stairs, and He's mother got up and called her back: "You are looking for Xiao Yang, right? Xiao Yang has gone out."

Zhuang Zijing stopped in her tracks, a little surprised: "Going out?" When she came, she walked in a hurry, it was useless to call Yang Hui, she didn't expect that she was not there.Things always seem to be unexpected today.

"I went out to repair someone's car. I guess I'll be back later." He said to his mother, "Why don't you cook here for a while, and if you haven't eaten, I'll get you something to eat?"

"Have you all eaten?" Zhuang Zijing asked.

"I've eaten. How about I serve you a bowl of noodles." Said to my mother.

"Thank you." Zhuang Zijing retreated from the stairs, walked to the brazier, and handed a small wooden stool to Zhuang Zijing with her mother, and then went to the kitchen.

He Guibao is shy and blushes when he sees a strange girl. Now Zhuang Zijing sat by the brazier, got up and went to the kitchen with his mother, he felt awkward sitting around the brazier with a big man and a beautiful girl , so he smiled honestly at Zhuang Zijing, then hurriedly fetched water to take a bath.

The town is still so quiet after dark, with a half crescent moon hanging in the sky, revealing a cool light, so that the mountains surrounding the town silently leave a shallow outline in the dark night, while the people in the town Everything seems to have a hazy beauty. A little light in the distance makes it hard to tell whether it is the lamp lit by the residents on the mountain or the stars in the sky.

Zhuang Zijing sat quietly by the brazier, staring blankly at the flames in front of her. The cold wind in the night caressed gently, and the flames in the brazier rose up and then returned to calm. Accompanied by the smell of burning wood, the light of the fire The warmth dispelled the coldness blowing on the long street of the small town, and the two wild dogs that occasionally walked by were slowly walking by smelling the smell of minced meat left by the meat stalls in the vegetable market...

Then, everything seemed to slow down like this.

Even though there is only half a day difference, staying in this small town quietly seems to be far away from those chaos...

This small town is like a space-time machine, easily adjusting the flow of time so slowly, unlike any big city that is in such a hurry.

The fire of wood burning seems to be more moving than the fire of liquefied gas stove, maybe just because of the original taste it has.Of course, it may also be because the pot of fire is in such a small town, on such a long street, at the door of Xiaoyang's car dealership, waiting for her to come back at night.

There is nothing enough to make me anxious, and there is nothing enough to make me worry, except to hope that she will return soon and safely.And in the process of quietly waiting for her return, Zhuang Zijing's heart finally slowed down, as the town after nightfall slowed down.

Until the sound of motorcycles broke the tranquility of the town, and the lights of the motorcycles swept across the Mercedes-Benz parked in front of the garage and the woman beside the firepit who had calmed down and was eating noodles, the people on the motorcycles had no time to park their cars He yelled loudly, "Why are you here?"

The motorcycle drove directly to the door of the shop, and then turned off. Yang Hui took off his helmet and hung it on the front of the car, and the man got out of the car too: "Why did you come here without calling me?!" Her eyes fell on Zhuang Zijing, reflecting the firelight There was joy and excitement on her face, but she glanced at the car parked at the door again. If I remembered correctly, Zhuang Zijing didn't have a car, let alone such a good car worth a million dollars.

Zhuang Zijing took a mouthful of noodles, glanced at the originally quiet long street, turned her head and smiled at Yang Hui: "You are so noisy."

Yang Hui was stunned, then took off his gloves and threw them aside, walked to Zhuang Zijing's side in two or three steps, pulled the small wooden stool and sat down: "I didn't expect you to come over, if I knew you were coming, I would let Xiaohe out .”

After finishing speaking, she stretched out her hands, rubbed her hands by the brazier to warm the fire, grinned and sucked in the cold wind, as if she was so cold while riding a bicycle, and seemed to be enjoying the warmth coming from the brazier at the moment.

After Zhuang Zijing finished eating the noodles, she and her mother took the bowls and chopsticks away to the kitchen, then Zhuang Zijing reached out to touch Yang Hui's cold hand: "Go out to repair the car at night?"

"Going out at night is usually broken on the way. If you don't fix it, people will be in trouble." Yang Hui shook Zhuang Zijing's hand, and smiled: "Miss me?"

Zhuang Zijing smiled: "Be careful when you go out at night."

"I know. In fact, Xiaohe went out most of the night, but today he happened to be too busy, so I went out." Yang Hui was afraid that Zhuang Zijing would be worried, so he explained: "But it's because I came back late today. Because I went to a fellow villager’s house to sit for a while and brag for a while.”

Zhuang Zijing let Yang Hui hold her hands and rub them gently, those slightly rough palms rubbed against her delicate skin, gradually giving birth to warmth, Zhuang Zijing felt that her hands were warmed, and her heart was also warmed: "I like to brag wherever I go. "

Yang Hui smiled all over his face: "You can make money by bragging."

"This is the first time I've heard of it." Zhuang Zijing smiled.When I came to the small town, I slowed down and lost my anxiety. Seeing her and being held by her, it seemed that the things that made me restless had become less important.So much so that at this moment Zhuang Zijing enjoyed the gathering by the brazier even more.

"You're on vacation today? Besides, which son gave you a nice car to drive here, won't you tell me that you're not the only one here?" Yang Hui knew that Zhuang Zijing was busy, otherwise he wouldn't have rushed away without calling himself Come here and drive the car.However, her tone of voice was joking and did not make people feel uncomfortable.

"I came here alone, and I have something on my mind to tell you." Zhuang Zijing didn't want to make a joke.

Yang Hui pulled the small wooden stool closer to Zhuang Zijing, and the two of them were already leaning against each other in the firelight: "Say it."

"I was not born to my mother." Zhuang Zijing said softly, looking at the brazier in front of her.

Yang Hui was stunned, and the hand that was gently rubbing the back of Zhuang Zijing's hand also stopped.The silence brought back the silence that had just been broken in the entire long street.Then Yang Hui laughed and broke the tranquility of the long street again: "That's not bad, you can justifiably not be tricked by her in the future. And you were originally this close relative, now maybe you have a chance to find another relative .In that case, you will have more relatives. This is also a good thing."

"I found my own one too." Zhuang Zijing said quietly.

Yang Hui's smile froze on her lips, and she just looked at Zhuang Zijing stupidly. After a long time, she swallowed: "This progress is too fast. I'm still wondering if you are going to the police tomorrow The department collects blood to find relatives, or else they will go on the program of searching for relatives, and they have already found them. I haven’t heard from you yesterday? Allow me a little time to digest.”

Seeing Yang Hui's silly appearance, Zhuang Zijing couldn't help laughing: "Yes, let's all digest it, it was too sudden."

Then there was another silence, the light of the fire gradually dimmed. Yang Hui picked up two pieces of wood from the side and threw them into the brazier. With a slight advantage, Zhuang Zijing felt a little cold, so she leaned closer to Yang Hui.

"It all happened today?" Yang Hui finally came to his senses, no matter what it meant, she and Zhuang Zijing had to face and adapt.

Zhuang Zijing nodded, but said nothing.

Yang thought about it, and laughed again: "You are really lucky. I don't have any relatives, but you have a lot." After finishing speaking, he fell silent again, and the atmosphere was a little weird. Yang Hui felt that he should say something What, but for a while I didn't know what to say, or I felt that nothing seemed good.

It turns out that the annoying mother is not her own mother. This should be good news. At least there is a reason not to be blackmailed by her in the future, and even if she wants to blackmail her in the future, Zijing will not be fighting alone. With a family, there are more people who will love her.It's just that when these people approach Zijing's life, her original path is naturally different. There are so many people who love her, what about me?At this moment, Yang Hui felt a little confused.

But now is not the time for me to think about these things. Finding a close relative is something to be happy about. Yang Hui adjusted his emotions. Zhuang Zijing suddenly came to Judian, of course not to listen to her haha, she came so suddenly must be because She is also confused.And myself, at this time, I should solve her doubts instead of thinking about the possible changes.

After thinking about his position, Yang Hui patted Zhuang Zijing's hand and stood up, and said carelessly, "I've been working all day, and my body is dirty. I'll take a bath first, and you can warm up for a while. Or go upstairs. Let's lie on the bed and have a good chat later."

The hearty tone made people feel that nothing seemed to have changed.Zhuang Zijing nodded: "Then I'll boil some more water."

After Yang Hui scooped away the hot water, Zhuang Zijing mixed a few ladles of water into the large aluminum pot on the brazier, and then fiddled with the wood with tongs like her mother did. There were too many, so Zhuang Zijing added two more short pieces of wood.

Yang Hui took a big bucket of water to take a bath, and before leaving, he joked with Zhuang Zijing rather ambiguously: "Why don't you take a bath with me?"

Zhuang Zijing poked her with the poker with a smile, and Yang Hui hurriedly picked up the bucket and left, but he smiled grinningly: "It's true that you didn't rub my back when you came from such a long distance."

The laughter gradually disappeared on the long street, and everything became quiet again, but Zhuang Zijing looked at the flames in front of her with a smile on her face.Although the dissipated laughter had disappeared, it still remained in Zhuang Zijing's heart, so she felt much more relaxed.
