life and joy

After getting off the plane, he changed stations. It wasn't until the train traveled through the deserted northwest wilderness that He Huan realized that Yao Qi really wanted to travel and chose such an unusual place.

The train was built before the founding of the People's Republic of China. As the wheels slid over the rails, the steam curled up the chimney, and then disappeared in the endless night.He Huan woke up from the faint and regular clicking sound, lifted a corner of the curtain in front of the car window, and focused his gaze on a point of nothingness across the wilderness.

The two people in the next bed were sleeping in the dark, and He Huan lay on his side and listened to the slight snoring of the two in a patchwork pattern, and his heart was empty and peaceful.

But he never fell asleep again, so he was lucky enough to see the picture of the sun rising on the wasteland.At first the sky was dark blue, and then it became dazzling, a fiery red disc could barely be exposed, and within half an hour the entire fireball roared above the horizon.

He gently stretched out his hand as if he wanted to feel something, and then touched the glass window with his finger. He Huan was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and pressed his forehead against the window.

If time could stop here, the train heading to the hinterland of the wilderness would never arrive at the station. This tired half life could end here, letting go of the past and the future.

However, in the depths of the earth that He Huan didn't notice, there was a gap between the packaged reality and the reality. It was the reality that the devil hid and people couldn't face it.

Two days later, the train stopped in a small town, and a group of people drove on the road.

It is a desolate and prosperous road, with lush vegetation but no one in the thousands of miles. Occasionally, I saw a few yurts and herdsmen driving yaks struggling on the grassland, and lived life as the only belief in this life.

At the last stop on the prairie, the car was replaced by a tractor, and a group of people sat on the truck compartment and wobbled.Yao Qi looked at the ashen-faced He Huan, always feeling that he was going to blow away with the wind in a second, then pulled his sleeve and asked, are you uncomfortable?

He Huan stared at him with a smile and said, no.

Yao Qi felt that it wasn't that he wasn't feeling well, but that he was seriously ill, which was silly.Ask again, otherwise stop here, call a helicopter, and go to the nearest sanatorium to rest for a few days.

He Huan was speechless, turned away from looking at him silently, and then did not forget to complain to him in a low voice: Only a person like Mr. Yao who is not diligent and rich can talk like this.

Yao Qi felt that he had lost all face as a guardian, turned around and found Jiang He who was almost squeezed dry by luggage in the corner, and said, why didn't he notice this when he set the route, and he has been so careless in his work Don't wait for me to notify you, submit your resignation letter yourself.

Jiang He, who was blown into chaos by the wind from the grassland and desert, looked puzzled:? ? ?

Fifty years ago, there were no people in the hinterland of the wasteland. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, a scientific research team came to investigate and some people came to reclaim the wasteland. However, it was not long before it was discovered that it was useless except for adding a piece on the map.

Unable to stand the thousands of miles of permafrost, a large number of people who came to reclaim wasteland quickly withdrew. Up to now, there are less than a hundred original residents left in this ancient and desolate land. Live a life away from crowds.

Kacha Lake is located in the center of the wilderness. Every year, it receives snow from all directions and condenses into a lake, like a drop of blue tears in the center of the desert.

He Huan stood in the small wooden building, opened the window and looked, and saw such a clear and transparent puddle of water.

At dusk, He Huan couldn't hold back his curiosity and strolled alone on the rocks on the shore, facing the clear blue lake and blowing the wind for a while.Yao Qi strolled over behind him, making a slight sound as the soles of his shoes stepped on the gravel.

He Huan looked back at him, and sure enough, this person likes to show his presence at all times.

In a panic, the person in the distance came before him, and Yao Qi sat beside him with a big grin, without saying anything, only showing a captivating smile.

He Huan was speechless, it was a waste to not have a row of beauties cheering and screaming beside him.

Yao Qi didn't seem to notice his dislike, and sat on the sidelines, crushing a small clod of dirt with his fingers and blowing it gently in the wind.His gestures are always so careless, but it seems that his hands cover everything.He is always like this, giving people a solid and powerful silhouette while hanging around.

He watched Yao Qi straighten his limbs to imitate the person in front of him almost with a little bit of luck and anticipation, but within a few seconds, he retracted his hand politely.

Maybe it was because of boredom, or maybe it was something that suddenly occurred to him, He Huan asked: Why do you want to take me in?

"Because...beautiful..." Saying that, Yao Qi really blinked at him, this action even drove away the coldness between his brows, without the solemnity of a guardian.

He Huan curled his lips: Sister Wei Meng is still in the villa, so let's save this and go back and talk about it.

He still remembered that there was a clean girl with red lips and white teeth in the villa, who was the daughter of the Wei family who came to discuss the project.But it's not that the Wei family is empty and needs a young lady who has been raised in a deep boudoir all year round to come out and talk about work.

Yao Qi was still smiling, but he said something that he didn't even think of: On the day of your brother's wedding, you dressed up like a mascot, which made people look sideways.You were still very short at that time, I looked down at you, and without warning, I saw a face exactly like mine.

The second half of the sentence is, at that time I thought you were special, at least to me.But Yao Qi didn't say anything.

He shut his mouth as if he said something out of bounds. He Huan glanced at him and didn't continue to ask.

In an objective sense, in fact, the appearance of the two people is not similar.He Huan has a handsome and bright face. If it weren't for the dark tide in his heart, his bright eyes could melt three winters of snow.On the other hand, Yao Qi's face has clear lines, and he has the ability to automatically retreat from the enemy when he is serious.If it is not for the occasional mistake, it is a standard leader's face.Of course, he has only made two mistakes in front of only a few people since he was a child.

If it weren't for the similar face in his childhood memories of four points of pain and five points of lonely achievement, Yao Qi might never have noticed this ordinary boy, but when he looked down at him, he would never forget it.

When the sky was getting dark, Jiang He stood by the door and yelled at two people in the distance: Dinner is served!

The posture and the courage are like the true biography of the aunt in the vegetable market, and the one on Changbanpo 2000 years ago can't match it.

Yao Qi stood up, turned around and stretched out his hand to He Huan, but saw He Huan struggling to stand up alone, and then deliberately did not look at him as if nothing had happened.

In the twilight, He Huan hid behind the tall man, hiding from the cold night wind on the wasteland, and stepped on the footprints left by the man in front of him step by step, feeling as if he had found a place where he wanted to stay for a long time. I have found my way back from wandering in the past ten years.

Dinner is all dairy products, handmade noodles and a little sake.The proprietress of the small hotel is a gentle and honest person, with a round face of the iconic plateau red, holding the two-year-old child with her left hand while entertaining them with her right hand.

He Huan wanted to step forward to help but was driven away with a smile.

She is a person, has always been a person, a person with one hand and one hand.Although sometimes she was so tired that it seemed like all the bones in her body were cracked, but she was used to it, and she felt uncomfortable when someone helped her.

It was an ordinary summer night in the wasteland. The night wind outside the window was getting colder and the heat inside the window was hard to dissipate. There was a "cracking" sound of cow dung cracking in the stove, and the sound of pots and bowls colliding on the stove. The young woman was circling around the stove, and the child in her arms was breathing evenly.

The boy with glowing eyes sat quietly under the lamp, and the guest from afar leaned against the door, subconsciously took a cigarette and held it between his fingertips.Before he had time to light it, he looked back, and then put the cigarette back as if remembering something.

Thousands of miles away in Daicheng, in the brightly lit Yao family's old house, the old man sat alone in the lobby and flipped through the magazines at hand, suddenly felt that the family fortune left by his hard work was terrifying.He sat quietly for a moment and then called his old buddy on the intercom.

He asked, what's the Wei family's attitude towards his daughter running into a man's house out of nowhere?

Jiang Zhi paused for a moment, collected his emotions, and said, I heard that the old man is ill with anger, and the doctor is on call 24 hours a day.

Rao even the old people who came from the wind and waves couldn't help but sigh silently when they encountered their children, and after waiting for a while, they asked again, what about Xiaoqi?

"Second Young Master has been keeping me at home, but his attitude has been unclear. I heard..." Jiang Zhi was about to say something, but his self-consciousness as an assistant made him shut up again.

The person on the sofa looked up at him and asked: What did you hear?

"...I heard that the second young master has gone on a trip with the young master."

"For so many years, I never knew that he likes to hang around outside." The old man frowned. His intuition as a superior gave him a bad premonition, but it was only for a moment.The indifferent father-son relationship for so many years made it difficult for him to make judgments on his children's behavior.

The old man paused and ordered: Call him back.

This light command traveled thousands of miles, and when he arrived at He Huan's place, Yao Qi was holding his phone and frowning.

He Huan put down the little milk cat in his hand, and said thoughtfully, if there is something to do, we will go back. Anyway, with a big financial backer like you, it is not a matter of time to travel.

Yao Qi looked back at him, he couldn't laugh or cry: If you come back later, you will be holding your girlfriend, so where do you put me, a loner?Staring at that stupid Jiang He?

The originally calm person frowned because of his words for no reason and said solemnly: I don't know how to find a girlfriend.

In Yao Qi's eyes, this sentence that suddenly became serious was the psychological shadow caused by childhood trauma.Changed the subject calmly and said: Have you decided which high school you want to go to?Anywhere is fine!

He Huan hesitated, and asked if any place would work?So you're going to invite the headmaster to tea?

Yao Qi raised his eyebrows, and said noncommittally: This is the first time I have protected someone indiscriminately like an old hen, so you should be grateful to Dade.When I get married, you don't even have this kind of treatment.
