Fang Chuxi's eyes lingered between the shelves, occasionally picking up something to take a look, and then putting it into the shopping cart behind him.

Lu Yunchuan followed him step by step, asking some silly common sense questions from time to time, and Fang Chuxi answered him while picking things, harmoniously like every ordinary couple in the supermarket.

After filling the shopping cart almost full, Fang Chuxi opened the list of sticky notes in her mobile phone and said, "It's almost there. I'm going to the hospital for the New Year this year, and these things are enough."

Lu Yunchuan glanced at the shopping cart, and always felt that it seemed a bit insufficient: "Should I buy some more and send it to grandma's house?"

"There are too many things, and they will be broken." Fang Chuxi scanned the list on the phone, and suddenly noticed something, "I almost forgot... Spring Festival couplets."

Walking to the area where Spring Festival couplets are sold, all kinds of Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters piled up into mountains, almost dizzying Lu Yunchuan's eyes.Fang Chuxi went to the side shelf with ease and took a few packs of blank Spring Festival couplets without any inscriptions, as well as a few blank square red papers, and put them into the basket together.

Lu Yunchuan picked up a bag and looked at it: "Are you going to write it yourself?"

He suddenly remembered that the word "Fu" pasted on the door of the house should have been pasted last year, without any fancy decorations, only a "Fu" written with a brush in the middle, in a thin golden body with outstanding appearance.

Fang Chuxi nodded: "Well, I personally write the blessing characters and Spring Festival couplets every year."

Lu Yunchuan couldn't help but sigh: "My wife is amazing."

Fang Chuxi: "...It's nothing. Also, don't call me that outside."

Lu Yunchuan immediately changed the address skillfully: "Xiaoxi is so amazing."

Fang Chuxi paused with her fingers, and calmly put the two extra packs of red paper into the shopping cart: "Okay, let's go to the cashier."

On the way to the cash register, Fang Chuxi didn't need to be distracted by looking at the shelves anymore, so within the short tens of meters, he could clearly hear Lu Yunchuan's footsteps following behind him, even the miscellaneous hustle and bustle of the mall couldn't cover it up.

He didn't know whether his decision to agree to celebrate the new year with Lu Yunchuan was correct, but after struggling for a long time, the only thing he couldn't go against was that he really wanted to spend the new year with Lu Yunchuan.

Before the divorce, the last time.

Maybe... also to make up for his five years of regret.

In the past two days, Fang Lin's ankle was almost intact, and he was able to go to the hospital to take care of his grandma, so Fang Chuxi told Lu Yunchuan that he no longer had to come to the hospital every day.On the other hand, grandma's body is also recovering well, and she is expected to be discharged from the hospital in the second half of the year. At that time, Fang Chuxi will join the group in person, and she will go there for three or four months.

The intersection between him and Lu Yunchuan will become less and less, until Lu Yunchuan recovers his memory, they will completely become two completely parallel straight lines.

"Xiaoxi!"

The call behind him brought Fang Chuxi back to his senses. He looked back and found that Lu Yunchuan was stopped a few meters away by two young girls who came to shop. The girls were holding WeChat QR codes in their hands. They were obviously here to strike up a conversation.

Feeling his gaze, Lu Yunchuan slightly raised the corners of his lips, and smiled politely at the two girls: "Sorry, I'm already married."

"Ah, I'm sorry..." One of the girls was a little disappointed, but her friend was not discouraged, and pointed to Fang Chuxi who was not far away, "That handsome guy, can I ask for your friend's WeChat?"

Lu Yunchuan: "..." His politeness couldn't hold back anymore.

Fang Chuxi was taken aback when he heard the words, and then showed a somewhat surprised smile, which added a bit of gentleness to his originally cold demeanor, and made the girl stare straight.

The smile on Lu Yunchuan's face suddenly became extremely hypocritical, he twitched the corners of his lips, and said word by word: "Then I'm even more sorry, this is not my friend, but my lover."

"……Ugh?"

The air was awkward for a few seconds, the cheeks of the two girls flushed, and they ran away in a hurry while saying "excuse me".

Fang Chuxi shook her head dumbfounded, and continued to line up in front.Lu Yunchuan, on the other hand, had a dark face, staring at his thin and thin back, and the vinegar tank in his heart was overflowing, and he could almost dip it into dumplings.

He remembered that when he was accosted just now, he took a special look at Fang Chuxi, but found that the other party's expression was as usual, as if he had witnessed a farce of passers-by.

But when he heard that the girl wanted to strike up a conversation with Fang Chuxi, and the other party hadn't shown any obvious resistance, he suddenly fell into an emotional quagmire.Uneasiness, panic, and distorted possessiveness surged together, like the darkness spreading from the crack in his heart, invading his mind inch by inch.

For a moment, he even wanted to trap Fang Chuxi in a certain place, and only he could see it.

He was taken aback by his own thoughts, and Fang Chuxi in front of him turned around and picked up a box of mint-flavored hard candies from the candy area in front of the cashier: "Do you want to eat?"

Lu Yunchuan blinked, and looked at him with some confusion.

Fang Chuxi explained: "This is the brand you used to like to eat, and there are often several boxes in the car."

Lu Yunchuan subconsciously took the mints, and slid his fingers across the surface of the metal box, feeling a little cool.

In a trance, those dark emotions buried in the bottom of my heart seemed to meet the warm sun suddenly, and were completely dispelled.

A smile appeared in Lu Yunchuan's eyes again. He held the box of mints tightly, and when the checkout line was moving forward, he lowered his head and said in a volume that only Fang Chuxi could hear:

"Thank you Xiaoxi."

Fang Chuxi clenched the corner of his sleeve lightly with his fingers, and he took a step forward to distance himself from the person behind him: "It's okay."

Grandma was taken care of by Fang Lin in the hospital. After shopping for the New Year's goods, Fang Chuxi went home directly.He put away the New Year's goods by category, and found the Four Treasures of the Study from the study, rolled up a piece of sleeve, and prepared to start writing this year's Spring Festival couplets.

He didn't close the door when he entered the study, so he caught a glimpse of Lu Yunchuan passing by the door of the study from time to time, going to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, and going to the living room to shovel excrement for glutinous rice balls.

When he passed the study for the third time in just 5 minutes, Fang Chuxi put down the unwritten pen, turned to the door and said, "If you want to read, just come in."

Hearing this, Lu Yunchuan threw away the cat strips he was squeezing for glutinous rice balls, ignored the kitten's loud scolding, and rushed into the study.

He moved a stool and sat at the table where he was writing Spring Festival couplets. Fang Chuxi pretended not to see him, and carefully picked up his pen and ink.The fingers holding the pen are thin and fair, with very beautiful bones. When the pen is lifted, the wrist bones protrude, revealing a subtle sense of strength.

The young man's eyelashes drooped, casting two small shadows on his pretty face. Lu Yunchuan was startled by the way he was concentrating on the calligraphy in his hands.

He couldn't hold anything else in his eyes, only that clear figure was full, and the heartbeat in his chest gradually accelerated, as if it was about to rush out of his chest.

As soon as Fang Chuxi was immersed in something, he would concentrate on it, so he was unaware of the gaze from the side. He dipped the ink again and wrote the second couplet.The last horizontal batch was a good sign, "Vientiane Renewal". When he finished writing the last stroke and was about to put the Spring Festival couplets on the table next to him to dry, he saw Lu Yunchuan's suspiciously red ears.

Fang Chuxi was puzzled: "What's wrong? The heater in the study is too hot?"

Lu Yunchuan coughed lightly, and looked away awkwardly: "Then what... Indeed, the heater is a bit hot. I'm going to the bathroom. Just keep writing."

Fang Chuxi didn't understand what going to the bathroom had to do with the heat being too hot, but the moment he lowered his head and started writing again, Lu Yunchuan immediately stood up and walked quickly to the outside of the study, as if fleeing in despair.

After nearly an hour, Fang Chuxi basically finished writing all the couplets and blessings before Lu Yunchuan came out of the bathroom.He changed his clothes, and his short hair was sticking to his temples wetly. Fang Chuxi couldn't help being surprised for a moment: "You still took a bath?"

Lu Yunchuan: "...By the way, I suddenly want to wash."

Fang Chuxi didn't intend to delve into it, so he changed the subject: "There is the last pair of Spring Festival couplets, I don't know what to write, do you have any ideas?"

Lu Yunchuan wiped his hair with a towel, and asked casually, "Where did you stick it?"

Fang Chuxi unfolded the blank Spring Festival couplets and pressed them with a paperweight: "Guest room."

His habit is to paste Spring Festival couplets on every door in the house during the first month, and then take them off after the first month, leaving only the pair outside the porch.In the past, when Lu Yunchuan was not around, he basically made his own decision. Now he felt that he should also ask Lu Yunchuan for his opinion.

Lu Yunchuan reacted for a few seconds before he suddenly understood what was going on, and hurriedly turned around: "Write it specifically for me?"

"...More or less." There was no way he could understand it that way.

Lu Yunchuan immediately threw away the towel, turned around and picked up the phone: "Wait for me to look for it! Let me see if there is any good meaning!"

His appearance was so excited that Fang Chuxi was a little at a loss. He turned around and sorted out the dried Spring Festival couplets, so as to cover up his embarrassment.

After waiting for an indeterminate amount of time, Lu Yunchuan raised his head and looked at Fang Chuxi expectantly with a pair of bright eyes: "Honey, can you... write poems?"

Fang Chuxi nodded: "Well, it's not impossible to lose a horizontal comment. What poems?"

But I saw the tall man standing not far away clenched his left hand into a fist, put it on his lips and cleared his throat, a thin layer of red appeared on the tips of his ears, and lowered his voice a little because of shame, making his voice weak. dumb:

"May I be like Liang Shangyan, and see each other often...②"

Fang Chuxi was silent for a long time, so long that Lu Yunchuan watched him uneasily, thinking about whether to change a line of poetry, as if the line "Open the door to welcome the spring and return to the earth" is not bad...

Before he could finish his ups and downs, Fang Chuxi turned around and picked up the pen: "Then let's just say this."

He wouldn't mind, after all, it was just a simple wish.

If all the wishes in the world can come true, then how can there be so many joys and sorrows, and the ups and downs of clouds and sunshines.

……

On New Year's Eve, Fang Lin went to the hospital first, while Fang Chuxi and Lu Yunchuan packed the New Year's Eve dinner at home.

Every dish of the New Year's Eve dinner was made by Fang Chuxi himself, and they were placed in a special insulated box. With the addition of dumplings, there were ten dishes, which meant perfection.

He specially made a large box of dumplings and gave them to the doctor on duty in the orthopedics department and the little girl at the nurse's station. He also gave the nurse a New Year red envelope as a thank you gift for taking care of grandma.When he returned to the ward, Lu Yunchuan had already arranged the New Year's Eve dinner, and Fang Lin helped his grandma to sit up from the hospital bed, smiling and watching the Spring Festival Gala that had just started on the hanging TV.

The mother-in-law next door has gone home for the New Year after the operation, and there are only four of them left in the ward.The hot air from the meal made the hospital with white walls and tiles a bit warmer, while the shadows of the trees outside the window were swaying, and the sound of firecrackers could be faintly heard from the distant streets.

Lu Yunchuan poured grandma a glass of sweet orange juice that grandma liked, and added wine to Fang Lin and Fang Chuxi in turn.Grandma took the lead in raising the small porcelain cup, and her voice was somewhat moderate: "In the new year, we all have to be safe and happy, okay?"

"Well, peace and joy." Fang Lin replied in a deep voice.

Fang Chuxi raised his glass: "In the new year, Vientiane will be renewed."

Lu Yunchuan was about to get ready to drive, so he poured orange juice for himself: "Then I wish everyone... peace and happiness, and everything goes well."

Fang Chuxi's family didn't have the rule of not talking when eating or sleeping. Grandma smiled and praised Fang Chuxi's craftsmanship, but Fang Lin remembered something, and lowered his head and drank another glass of wine.Fang Chuxi didn't drink any more, and replaced white wine with orange juice, and complained to grandma about the meaningless Spring Festival skits on TV, while Lu Yunchuan watched the happy atmosphere with a smile, and suddenly felt that his congratulatory speech just now was against his will.

What he wanted to say at that moment was obviously "every year has today, every year has today", but the moment he blurted out, it turned into peace and joy.

He himself knew very well that he couldn't predict whether he would be by Fang Chuxi's side and have a New Year's Eve dinner with him on this day next year.

Fang Chuxi felt his gaze, and turned his head to look over. Perhaps because he was in a good mood, a smile appeared in his slightly drunken eyes.

Lu Yunchuan was in a trance for a moment, and suddenly felt...that's enough.

An inch of time he can steal, an inch of joy.

After eleven o'clock, grandma's body couldn't hold on, and she was ready to rest.Although Fang Lin drank a few more glasses, he has always been a good drinker, and he basically wakes up after blowing on the wind. He will stay tonight to take care of grandma with the nurse.

On the way home, Lu Yunchuan drove, and Fang Chuxi sat in the co-pilot, staring at the street lights outside the window in a daze.He didn't drink much, but obviously his drinking capacity was not inherited. At this time, there was still some dazed look on his face, showing a bit of drunkenness.

When he got out of the car, his body shook a bit, Lu Yunchuan hurried to help him, but he waved his hand and refused.After returning home, Lu Yunchuan ran to the kitchen to give him honey water for concocting wine. Fang Chuxi stood on the balcony alone, looking at something.

And when Lu Yunchuan came to the balcony with honey water in his hands, Fang Chuxi took the cup of warm water, his fingertips that were blown cold by the wind gradually softened, he raised his head, and suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Look."

Lu Yunchuan followed his gaze and was dumbfounded for a moment.

Snowing.

It's not a severe blizzard, but little snowflakes dotted around, falling into the world like stars jumping from the sky.

In the distant sky, bright fireworks suddenly rose, cluster after cluster, illuminating the deep night with fluttering snowflakes, which is brilliant only once a year.

Under the brilliant light of the fireworks, Fang Chuxi turned his head and looked at Lu Yunchuan. The drunkenness caused him to react more realistically than before, and a warm smile appeared on that beautiful face that was usually alienated and cold, and he said softly to the people around him. :

"Lu Yunchuan, Happy New Year."

Lu Yunchuan lowered his eyes, suppressing the deep emotions surging in his eyes.He held Fang Chuxi's one-inch corner of his clothes, imitating the appearance of interlocking his fingers, and his Adam's apple moved:

"……Happy New Year."
