round spring

There is no trace of spring rain, but there is trace of night rain.

——An Yuan's Diary

An Yuan closed her eyes, and lay quietly under the mosquito net, with her hands folded on her stomach, her fingers twisting the hem of her pajamas, and kept stirring.

Shen Xingchun took a long time to tidy up the scattered discs on the table, and checked them one by one. There were two or three discs left in the outer box that were different from the discs inside. He put all the discs that were different in his schoolbag. In the innermost mezzanine, he put the others in the drawer under the TV, so that he can take them out for viewing next time.

After clearing the discs on the table, he took a few glances at the Kang, and saw a fuzzy and fluffy head. He coughed a few times and asked, "Xiao Yuan'er, are you asleep?"

After a while, An Yuan replied, "No."

Shen Xingchun thought he was embarrassed, sat at the table and thought about his words, then walked slowly to the edge of the kang, put his arms on the edge of the kang, lay on his upper body, looked at Anyuan through the mosquito net, "Xiaoyuan, you don't have to Excuse me."

An Yuan closed her eyes, with a frown between her eyebrows, she said, "I'm not embarrassed, I just don't want to see it."

Shen Xingchun scratched his head, gritted his teeth and thought for a long time, and then said: "I picked out the wrong boxes, and the others were right, and put them in the drawer under the TV, so I won't watch them next time." wrong."

"Understood." An Yuan said sullenly.

"are you sleepy?"

"not sleepy."

Shen Xingchun leaned forward again, a few strands of hair on the top of An Yuan's head protruded through the small holes in the mosquito net. He pinched An Yuan's hair and twitched it back and forth between his thumb and index finger, saying : "Aren't you sleepy to chat with brother?"

An Yuan felt that Shen Xingchun was pinching his hair, and the top of his head was itchy, so he turned over.

Seeing him move, Shen Xingchun loosened his hair and stepped back a little.

An Yuan lay on the kang, patted the messy hair on the top of her head, raised her head slightly, "Brother, what do you want to talk to me about?"

The mosquito net covered An Yuan's face with a white blur, and the hair on his forehead hung down on his slender and thick eyelashes, blocking the light in his eyes.

Shen Xingchun looked at his blurred eyes, suddenly didn't know what to say, just stared at his hair and said: "I forgot to take you to cut your hair before I came back, brother will cut your front hair tomorrow?"

An Yuan lowered his head and said, "Okay, just talk to me about this?"

A mosquito flew and buzzed by Shen Xingchun's ear, but Shen Xingchun patted it several times but failed to catch it. Finally, the mosquito bit his bare back. Shen Xingchun turned his head vigorously, and finally slapped him on his back. The blood-sucking mosquitoes were slapped to death.

He scratched the bitten back after he finished filming, "The mosquito bit my brother to death."

An Yuan lifted a corner of the mosquito net, "Then why don't you come up to sleep?"

"Brother will play the tape for you." Shen Xingchun turned to get the tape recorder and tape.

"Don't make mistakes again this time, take a good look." An Yuan put down the mosquito net, lay down again, and teased him with her eyes closed.

Shen Xingchun laughed with a "puchi", "I'll listen to you if I make a mistake, just to let you know."

"I don't listen," An Yuan opened his eyes and gave him a far-off look, "If you want to listen to yourself, it's so ugly."

"Then what doesn't sound bad?"

Shen Xingchun put the tape he bought for An Yuan into the tape recorder, carried the tape recorder, went to the wall and pulled the light cord, then opened the mosquito net and climbed up, turned over and lay beside An Yuan.

Because An Yuan spread their mattress far away from the blanket, Shen Xingchun directly lay on An Yuan's pillow, their heads touching their heads.

He leaned back to An Yuan's side again, and said, "Go a little over there, I'll lie on your mattress."

The eyes that were still bright just now suddenly turned into darkness, and all the feelings were concentrated on the top of the head and ears. An Yuan hesitated for a moment, but moved to the side.

Shen Xingchun slept on the mattress, leaned against An Yuan again, their arms were pressed against each other, he put the tape recorder on his stomach, touched the switch button and pressed it.

The sound of the tape spinning leisurely, like the wind blowing through the gravel, a few seconds later, the prelude to the music sounded.

Shen Xingchun turned his head to An Yuan and said, "These are all your favorites, I specially selected them for you."

"En." An Yuan barely made a nasal sound.

"Is brother nice to you?"

"it is good."

"Does it sound good?"

"It sounds good."

Shen Xingchun raised his hand to touch the top of An Yuan's head, keeping his palm on top of his head, "Close your eyes, and you will fall asleep in a while."

An Yuan kept his eyes open just now, but now he has adapted to the blackness in front of him, and after listening to Shen Xingchun's words, he closed his eyes obediently.

Shen Xingchun withdrew his hand, put the tape recorder on his stomach next to the pillow, touched An Yuan's hand again, held his fingers, pinched the small joints of his fingertips, and lit them up and down following the rhythm of the music.

An Yuan's eyes opened the moment Shen Xingchun touched his hand, his heartbeat followed the rhythm of his fingers, and he secretly glanced at Shen Xingchun.

Shen Xingchun closed his eyes, his jaw was still moving following the rhythm of his hands.

An Yuan curled up her fingers, and suddenly withdrew her hand from Shen Xingchun's.

Shen Xingchun felt his hands were empty, and the rhythm on his fingers paused, "Huh? What's wrong?"

An Yuan moved his body to the side, "It's too hot, brother."

"Oh," Shen Xingchun also moved to the side, but still lay on the same pillow with An Yuan, touched the fan next to him, turned his head to fan An Yuan a few times, "Fan you, is the fan still warm? "

A bit of cool wind blown by the fan hit An Yuan's burning face, he turned over and turned his back to Shen Xingchun, "It's not hot anymore, bro, you don't need to fan me."

Shen Xingchun slapped him on the back a few more times, "I'm not sleepy, I'll slap you."

An Yuan was lying on his side, and Shen Xingchun simply lay on his side behind him, fanning An Yuan.

"Brother, why are you so nice to me?"

"You are my brother, why don't you ask nonsense."

"I'm not your brother." An Yuan's voice was not loud, his voice was still hoarse, but it was limp.

"Why not? Although not a relative, he is also my younger brother."

An Yuan turned around, "Brother, I don't want you to be my brother."

Shen Xingchun took a fan and patted him on the arm, "If you don't treat me as my brother, why should you treat me?"

"Brother..." An Yuan yelled "Brother", feeling a little helpless.

Shen Xingchun also cheerfully responded: "Hey."

An Yuan turned around again, after listening to one side of the tape, Shen Xingchun got up and changed the side again, suddenly a flash of lightning flashed outside the window, the room lit up for a moment, and a bluish-white light flashed on the faces of the two of them.

An Yuan looked up, "It's flashing, bro."

Shen Xingchun put the fan on An Yuan's stomach, "Fan yourself, I'll go down and close the window, it's going to rain, I forgot to listen to the weather forecast at night."

"I looked and it said it will rain tonight." An Yuan said.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a bang above his head, and then the raindrops crackled on the glass window, and the sound of the clattering rain covered his chaotic heartbeat.

"It's probably thunderstorms, coming and going. I was planning to take you into the mountains tomorrow, but I guess I won't be able to go there for a few days." Shen Xingchun closed the front and rear windows, and went out to look again. There was no drying of things or clothes in the yard. , He went back to the house and closed the door.

Seeing him entering the room, An Yuan replied casually, "Then let's stay at home."

Shen Xingchun lifted the mosquito net and got on the kang, this time he didn't go to An Yuan, he lay on the side that An Yuan had laid for him, the two were separated by a long distance.

He said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't go into the mountains. After it rains, we just go to pick mushrooms. If it doesn't rain tomorrow morning, we will go to the back mountain forest to pick some mushrooms. When we come back, let grandma fry mushrooms for us, dip them in some pepper, salt and pepper." Noodles, hiss, it’s delicious just thinking about it.”

In the end, both of them failed to get up early, An Yuan didn't wake up, he slept very late last night, Shen Xingchun woke up first, he didn't call An Yuan, and didn't move.

Because not long after An Yuan fell asleep, she crawled up to Shen Xingchun's side in a daze, resting her head on his arm, one hand was still tightly attached to his shoulder, the other was on his chest, and her leg was pressed against his chest. On his lap, his breathing was quiet and even. He didn't know what dream he had, and the base of his nose wrinkled.

After Shen Xingchun woke up, he didn't move for a long time. After a long time, his arms and legs were sore, so he moved his body, trying to withdraw the arm that was pillowed by An Yuan.

But as soon as he moved, An Yuan frowned displeasedly and groaned twice, then arched into his arms again.

Because of the night rain, the room was not so hot anymore, Shen Xingchun waited until An Yuan slept soundly again, and moved his arms again.

This time he withdrew his arm, removed Anyuan's leg that was pressing on his leg, turned over and moved around a few times.

After a while, An Yuan put his hands and legs up again, hugged Shen Xingchun tightly, and even arched into his arms.

An Yuan's hair rubbed against Shen Xingchun's neck, and Shen Xingchun itched so badly that he giggled a few times.

An Yuan moved her fingers when she heard the familiar laughter, and slowly opened her eyes. Her head was still empty after waking up, and she hadn't had time to put any thoughts and emotions into it.

When he saw clearly Shen Xingchun's angular but warm side face, he followed Shen Xingchun with a silly grin, and pressed his hands and legs up again.

This time, his legs were raised a little higher, and they were directly pressed on Shen Xingchun's stomach. Shen Xingchun laughed even harder when he pressed him down, "Xiao Yuaner, take the legs off."

An Yuan didn't take it, but still pressed it, Shen Xingchun patted his leg twice, An Yuan moved his leg down to avoid him, and when he felt the strange touch on his calf, he stopped breathing Yes, he was stunned for a long time.

Of course Shen Xingchun also felt it, he slapped An Yuan's leg away, and moved his butt to the side, "I told you to take it, but you didn't take it, it's like this in the morning, don't you?"

"I'm not like that." An Yuan said stubbornly.

Shen Xingchun didn't argue with him on this issue, he got up and put on his clothes, "I'm suffocating, I'm going to the toilet, do you want to go together?"

An Yuan turned her head, "I won't go, you go by yourself."

"Then I'll go by myself." Shen Xingchun first put away the four corners of the mosquito net, rolled them up and put them on the top of the mosquito net, "Get up later, after dinner, I'll take you to the forest."

"..." An Yuan corrected him: "It's going to the back mountain forest, not going into the back mountain forest."

"Oh, are you talking to me?" Shen Xingchun walked to the window and opened it.

"I just bit it..." An Yuan also got up, and the fresh air after the rain floated into the house through the window, carrying a faint earthy smell.

He took a deep breath, looked at Shen Xingchun still standing there, and urged him, "Aren't you going to the toilet? Hurry up, I have to change clothes."
