Transport life

Lin Yi dropped the phone to the ground.

Early in the morning, Lin Yi's family went to the third uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings. The third uncle is the cousin of the grandfather. He helped his parents a lot when he was young. The family visits the old man every year.

In the eyes of relatives, Lin Yi is very promising.Relatives often take advantage of the opportunity to praise her to praise their parents.Lin Yi's parents are intoxicated by the advantages that this kind of child brings to themselves, and they take a son and a daughter to visit relatives every year.Lin Yi couldn't resist, otherwise there would be another big quarrel.Lin Yi, who will be in the early [-]s after the next year, doesn't want to let useless quarrels fill his mind, so he might as well follow along, ignore the adults, and sit and play with his mobile phone by himself.

She didn't expect to be arguing and finally came.

The reason is that the third uncle's nephews and grandchildren happened to meet on the same day to pay New Year's greetings.There is a 28-year-old grandnephew who is doing financial management-related work. Lin Yi's family had a face-to-face meeting with the other party as soon as they entered the house. They were all guests. After a few casual greetings, Lin Yi knew about his work.It happened that Lin Yi was about to take a finance-related certificate, and the two sat on the side and started chatting. They found that the elders were looking at them, and they said, "Oh, young people just can talk. Get together", "We don't understand what they said, advanced" and other words.

Both of them, who were nearly 30 years old, were used to the gazes of their elders, so they stopped talking, slowly moved away, waited for everyone to turn their attention away, and then re-selected a place to continue the previous topic.

However, Lin Yi's younger brother is an occasional jerk. He dragged a few younger children to set off firecrackers in the yard. The firecrackers were thrown into the place where the clothes were hanging, and a piece of clothing was instantly set on fire, scaring the children to shout yell.

Lin Yi and the others stood by the door a little closer to the yard and stepped out in two or three steps. The boy tore off the burning clothes from the bamboo pole, and Lin Yi moved the other clothes to the corner of the bamboo pole.The others came out of the room and scolded their children one after another when they saw this.During the first lunar month, a small fire was almost caused in someone else's house, and the elderly who are a little bit superstitious will be unhappy.

Fortunately, it didn't ignite, and the people from the third uncle's family also repeatedly said that it didn't matter.

Lin Yi's mother kept scolding her son. He was sixteen or seventeen years old and had a bad temper. At first, he accepted his mother's scolding. After five or six minutes of continuous scolding, his temper exploded, and he replied to his mother.Being publicly contradicted in front of everyone, my mother's complexion changed instantly, her voice raised, and she turned her finger on Dad. Seeing that a family conflict was about to happen, everyone turned a blind eye and went into the house to avoid them.

If Mom shut up at this time, it would be fine if Dad didn't listen. However, the man in his fifties probably felt that he couldn't keep his face, so he got angry and slapped Lin Duojin directly on the face.With a bang, Lin Yi, who had been watching the excitement by the side, was shocked for a moment.

The subsequent development is very characteristic of Lin Yi's family.Lin Duojin, who was tall enough, stared at his father, as if he could beat him up at any time. Everyone began to persuade and pull, and the mother who guided the development to this stage scolded the two men at home with tears in her eyes.

Third Uncle's family's complexion changed - it is a big taboo to shed tears in other people's house in the first month of the lunar year.

Seeing that Lin Yi always seemed to have nothing to do with her, and the boy chatting with her showed a meaningful expression, Lin Yi slightly shrugged his shoulders and said nothing, but this action fell into Lin Duojin's eyes, and he felt angry The young man who had no place to vent his anger walked up to her, and asked Lin Yi in a voice that was just audible to Lin Yi and the boy: "Does your girlfriend know that your parents are so violent?"

Lin Yi knew that his younger brother was crazy. When he was young, he would cut his own arm with a knife in order to blame Lin Yi for his wrongdoing.But she didn't expect that Lin Duojin's madness completely disregarded the place and the people, and he would bite people randomly anytime and anywhere.

The boy looked puzzled and didn't realize what Lin Duojin was talking about.

"Hey, you don't know, my sister likes girls because my dad beats people up." Lin Duojin continued in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

The boy looked embarrassed.Lin Yi's face changed, he raised his hand and pulled Lin Duojin away, and shouted under his voice: "Why are you crazy?"

Lin Duojin looked indifferent.Shouting to the mother who had already entered the room: "Mom, look at sister..."

Lin Yi dragged Lin Duojin out.

The two stood outside the courtyard gate.Lin Yi was very angry. She was not angry that her younger brother casually told others about her sexual orientation, but that Lin Duojin was such a jerk, that she was angry with her parents, and it was Lin Yi who took revenge.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi, who has always been strong, shed a tear. She looked straight at Lin Duojin: "Did I owe you a family of three in my previous life?"

Lin Duojin looked away.

Lin Yi took a step forward and grabbed the clothes on Lin Duojin's chest: "Hey, what do I ask you, do I owe you three?"

"Then who knows." Lin Duojin replied, "Who asked you to control us all the time? You just want to be good people."

Lin Yi was powerless: "Bastard, what do you think I should do?"

Lin Duojin leaned against the courtyard wall, took out his mobile phone and clicked: "I don't know either. Do you know, sister, I chatted with your girlfriend and said that if my parents knew about your relationship, they would beat you to death. What did she do? I didn't say anything. I threatened her with all kinds of words, but she didn't respond. Are you really in a relationship? She doesn't care about you. "

"What?" Lin Yi was stunned, "Have you chatted?"

Lin Duojin shook the phone.The familiar head portrait on the screen appeared in front of Lin Yi, and Lin Yi felt as if he had jumped from a high place.Lin Duojin's words didn't have much impact on Lin Yi. Compared to this, she was more concerned about whether Lin Duojin had said stupid things in front of Yan Lingling and whether he had hurt Yan Lingling.

She knew that Yan Lingling didn't want too many people to know about their relationship.She took out her mobile phone to contact Yan Lingling.Turning around, I saw my parents and several elders standing by the yard. My parents looked at the siblings in shock.

The third uncle's family started lunch very early. After a hasty lunch, Lin Yi's family left first.During the half-hour drive home, no one spoke a word until they got home, and Lin Yi's father threw the keychain on the coffee table, kicking off the prelude to the New Year's quarrel.

Lin Yi didn't care about his parents' abuse of him, anyway, he got used to it when he was a child.But when the father in his fifties was so angry that his face twitched wildly and said that he would go to Yan Lingling's parents to let them take care of their perverted daughter, Lin Yi broke out.She cried and scolded her parents. The father and daughter picked up the things at hand and threw them at each other just like they did more than ten years ago.The mother who had been watching the excitement stood up and stopped her husband. Lin Duojin, who was standing by the window, looked indifferent.

Lin Yi went back to the room and closed the door.Dad outside yelled at her to get out.

Lin Yi opened the door and shouted at him: "I bought the house! If you want to get out, you are the ones who get out!"

"My name is me..." Before Dad could finish his sentence, Lin Duojin dragged him into the living room.Lin Yi returned to the room, there was a sound of cursing and cursing from the living room, and after a while, she heard the sound of the door closing.

She was angry and annoyed, thinking of what her father wanted to say to Yan Lingling, and thinking of Lin Duojin's private contact with Yan Lingling, she dialed Yan Lingling's number.

--------

Yan Lingling, who hung up on Lin Yi's phone, suppressed her emotions. She didn't want to affect her family because of herself.She sat down at the table, and her little cousin asked her what was the matter, she smiled, and quickly said nothing, and asked her aunts if they wanted to go to the city to play the next day, the city park was holding a flower exhibition these days.

The topic was taken away, and the family discussed it.

That night, Lin Yi and Yan Lingling did not chat.Yan Lingling didn't want to take the initiative anymore.On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, my aunt's family left, and on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Yan Lingling spent the Lantern Festival with her grandfather, and returned to Zicheng the next day to start work.During this period, Yan Lingling and Lin Yi had no contact.

Yan Lingling thought about going to Zicheng two days in advance to find Lin Yi, but she really wanted to spend the Lantern Festival with her grandfather at home, and since Lin Yi had no sign of contacting her at all, she simply gave up on this idea.

Many people living in the yard have come here one after another. Everyone in the office started working a few days ago, and Yan Lingling was the one who returned to work relatively late.She went to the office to sign the rework registration list, and before she had time to chat with anyone, Ran Ming pushed open the office door: "Wu Huan, help me see who can go to work now, and go unload with me."

Wu Huan laughed: "There is one here, ask her?"

Yan Lingling greeted Ran Ming, walked out of the office after him, went back to the room to change clothes, and started the first work of the new year.

When Yan Lingling returned home years ago, Ran Ming's sprained ankle was still wrapped in bandages. Twenty days later, Ran Ming returned to his previous appearance.

"Go home and gain five catties for the Chinese New Year." Ran Ming said, "I hope that all five catties can be turned into muscles."

Yan Lingling laughed and asked about Ran Ming's son.Ran Ming said that the boy had been in kindergarten for a year, learned a lot of strange things, and sometimes spoke like a little adult.There was a happy expression on his face.Ran Ming asked how she and Lin Yi were doing?

Yan Lingling's expression froze for a moment, and was caught by Ran Ming: "What? Did you quarrel?"

"It's not a quarrel, is it a cold war?" Yan Lingling smiled helplessly, "I don't know why."

"Isn't that what falling in love is like? Think about it. Girls have delicate thoughts and careful thoughts. When two girls have more detailed thoughts, it is more normal to have conflicts." Ran Ming said, "I read it online before. , said that when two girls fall in love, they often quarrel for inexplicable reasons. When I first saw the reasons for those quarrels, I couldn't understand them at all."

Yan Lingling didn't expect that Ran Ming would enlighten her, so she changed the subject with a smile: "Why do you go to read these online?"

Ran Ming picked up the rope from the truck and turned around to tie up the goods: "I found it at random."

Yan Lingling finally decided to go to Lin Yi.One afternoon a few days later, after she finished the list for the day, she found that she was not far from where Lin Yi worked.She didn't follow Big Brother Yun and Big Sister Mi back to the courtyard, but stood by the roadside to send a message to Lin Yi.

After waiting for 5 minutes, Lin Yi never replied.Called and no one answered.Yan Lingling guessed that the other party might be in a meeting.

After the Spring Festival, the weather has not yet warmed up. Vehicles drive by on the side of the road, bringing a gust of cold wind. Yan Lingling looked around and found a bookstore not far away. She walked into the bookstore and was going to wait for Lin Yi to reply at the bookstore. .

This bookstore has a small door, but it has a lot of space inside, and there is a coffee area on the innermost side.On weekday afternoons, there were not many people in the bookstore.Yan Lingling liked to read books when he was young, and he still reads now, but the time and amount of reading are much less than before.She picked up a modern novel at random, walked to the coffee area, saw the words consumption and seating on the board, turned and walked to the window.

There was a row of high bar stools along the window, and Yan Lingling sat down at the far end.She opened the book, and after reading a few lines, she glanced sideways and found two acquaintances sitting on the high stool in the middle of the bar table.Her gaze happened to meet a person who was sitting next to another person. From Yan Lingling's perspective, it seemed that half of her body was leaning against the other person's arms.

Cold sweat broke out on her back, Yan Lingling got up and wanted to leave, but the man called her quickly: "Sister Lingzi?"

With her coquettish voice and uncertain tone, Yan Lingling got goosebumps from her shouting.

"Lingling?" A voice that had not been heard for nearly ten days sounded.

Knowing that he couldn't avoid it, Yan Lingling turned around, met Lin Yi's gaze with a cold face, and trembled while holding the book. "What a coincidence," she said.She was breathing heavily and her voice was a little trembling.
