life after death

Saturday and Sunday for the senior high school entrance examination, as a senior high school student, he will enjoy a rare full weekend.

In the middle of walking, Chen Yilin suddenly remembered something and took out a small book from his schoolbag, which recorded numerous expenses and collections. On the first page, it was written in red pen: Supermarket No. [-] half price!Also drew a circle heavily.

It seems that he remembers correctly, today is the 70.00th, a supermarket near his home is not doing well because of the fierce competition, so they come up with a half-price event, once a month, the half-price products are as high as [-]%.

Chen Yilin was thinking that the soap and toothpaste at home were about to run out, the toothbrush should be replaced after three months of use, that winter had to buy hand cream and skin care milk, grandma had severe chilblain and needed a chilblain ointment... those trivial things The things that make up life, don't look at them as inconspicuous, but they are above all things, after all, no matter what, life should be lived well.

The location of the traffic police brigade was off the beaten path, and there was a traffic jam during rush hour. It was already past six o'clock when he arrived at the supermarket. Chen Yilin thought something was wrong, so he went straight to the aquatic product area. All the good fish and shrimp were picked away, except for two yellow croakers with dull luster. With his mouth half open, he seemed to be accusing the world of injustice.Chen Yilin glanced at the price, hesitated for a while, touched them a few times, and had to give up.

Fortunately, he found extremely cheap hairtail in the frozen section. The aunt who sold hairtail saw that he was handsome, and told him very enthusiastically: "This hairtail is so good! All the hairtails in small restaurants come to us. !"

Chen Yilin replied with a smile, weighed a catty, and when he left, the aunt warmly greeted him to come back.

After buying octopus, I went to the daily necessities area. On the way, I passed a place where fruits were sold. It was really a treasure land, with the fragrance of melons and fruits, and the smell of mutton from the nearby butcher shop, like an oasis in the desert.

The fruit at home was almost finished, and there were only two bananas. Chen Yilin pushed the cart and went straight to the place where the fruits were weighed.Next to the weighing, there are discounted fruits, ones that are about to rot, and ones with wrinkled skins. However, Chen Yilin is used to picking, and he successfully picked out a few good-looking apples from this pile of moldy fruits. He leaned closer and smelled them. It smells good, without the smell of alcohol. I bought another box of dragon fruit and put it in the shopping cart. I was stopped by someone before I took a few steps forward.

"Alin!"

As soon as Chen Yilin turned his head, he saw Su Junping throw away the cart and pounce towards him like a big dog seeing its owner coming home. Chen Yilin was pushed back two steps by the momentum. He touched Su Junping's head, expecting to touch two Only furry ears.

Su Junping blinked his eyes and said happily: "You also come to the supermarket!"

Chen Yilin tore off the dog skin plaster from his body with difficulty, and helped him move the cart before returning: "Well, today's supermarket has a special price."

Su Junping looked through Chen Yilin's shopping cart, sighed a strong sense of life, then shook his hand and asked him what else he wanted to buy.

Chen Yilin was dizzy from being shaken by him, and pointed to the front, Su Jun said flatly, "What's there to buy?" Having said that, he still followed obediently.

Chen Yilin squatted in front of the cabinet to compare prices and brands. Seeing Su Junping yawned in boredom, he gave him a light push: "If you're bored, play by yourself, don't follow me."

"No, I'll follow."

As he spoke, he also squatted down in a similar manner, but he squatted down on tiptoe, and if he lost his balance, he would fall down. Chen Yilin quickly went to help him, and when he hooked his waist, he squeezed it. It was the boy's waist. , slender and powerful.

Chen Yilin's heart was jumping with joy, and he could hardly bear to kiss him. Fortunately, he was immediately taken aback by his bold idea, half ashamed and half excited, his face flushed. Su Junping squatted down and looked at him suspiciously.

Now he didn't have the heart to choose toothpaste anymore, he chose a set of ointment and toothbrush, stood up and stuffed it into the car, and went to look at Su Junping's cart before he had anything to say: "What did you buy?"

Potato chips, French fries, yogurt, Pocky, Laoganma sauce, purple potato buns, mustard, white rabbit toffee.

Very good, full of snack flavor.

However, Laoganma's purple potato buns and pickled mustard are not like snacks. Chen Yilin had the impression that Su Junping would never worry about these. It should be bought by the kind and virtuous Yang Hong. He asked casually: "You just came out to buy them Things? Where's Auntie?"

Su Junping fiddled with the buttons for a while.

His complexion turned pale suddenly, and Chen Yilin noticed that his entire back was stiff, so he quickly turned his chin over, forced him to look at each other, and gently patted his back while saying softly: "Xiao Jun, Xiao Jun! Look at me!"

Chen Yilin's clear eyes were like two balls of bright fire, which shocked Su Junping. He regained his sanity, pushed Chen Yilin away and said, "I'm going to the bathroom." After speaking, he ran away in a hurry.

He washed his face in the bathroom. Su Junping was a little nearsighted, he didn't wear glasses, so he put his face close to the mirror until the hair on his face was clearly reflected.

He looked at the man in the mirror who was frowning tightly, with reddened whites and black eyes, and suddenly punched the mirror. The mirror was not broken, only the joints were aching.After a long time, Su Junping twitched the corners of his mouth with a fake smile, and the person in the mirror also twitched his mouth.

He rationally told him that it was him, but he didn't believe it. He always felt that the person opposite the mirror was alive, mocking his powerlessness harshly.

Before Su Junping went to the supermarket, he went to the hospital.Grandma told him to bring food to his mother.

Grandma covered the white chopped chicken, the chicken was white and firm, the skin was tender yellow and thin, and dipped in a little soy sauce and sesame oil, it was so delicious that even chopsticks could be swallowed.Grandma said: "This is an appetizer, take it to your mother."

Su Junping happily served it to his mother. Yang Hong picked up a chopstick and immediately threw it away with a vomit.

Su Junping just took out the soup at the bottom of the lunch box, and looked at Yang Hong blankly. She seemed to have lost a lot of weight. When she lowered her head and vomited, she clearly saw a huge depression in her collarbone, as if there was only a layer of skin sticking to the bone .

Su Junping's heart skipped a beat. He secretly wiped the sweat on his pants, and said to his mother nonchalantly, "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"

Yang Hong frowned deeply: "I can't eat it, I'm too tired, you can eat it."

After speaking, he took Su Junping's crucian carp tofu soup, drank half of it first, then ate some cabbage hastily, and counted as he finished half a bowl of rice.With her chopsticks, Su Junping slowly and carefully ate up all the boiled chicken, and the bones of the chicken spit out were clean without any minced meat.

Only he himself knew that his hand holding the chopsticks was shaking all the time.

The more he cared about it, the more he controlled himself to tell it not to shake, the more it shook violently, Su Junping wanted to throw his chopsticks out after eating, but he held back in front of his mother, and said with a thin smile: " It would be a pity not to eat the little hen that grandma specially bought."

Yang Hong didn't speak, just leaned on the bed and watched TV.

What's so good about TV shows, but Yang Hong seems to like a variety show. Seeing that she sat up straight, Su Junping stuffed a cushion behind her waist, and watched it with her.

He first stood up and cleaned up the tableware briefly, then peeled an orange. Yang Hong waved his hand, and he stuffed it into his mouth. Hearing the exaggerated laughter in his ears, his eyes drifted unconsciously to his mother.

There is one thing he cares about very much, but he can't say it.

That is: fucking hats on all the time.

The suede hat that Su Junping bought.

The purpose of Su Junping buying the hat was of course to let Yang Hong cover up his hair loss. He knew that his mother was a beautiful woman, but when she really did this, Su Junping couldn't help but wonder how much her hair had lost. Could it be all? Empty?

For a moment he wanted to stand up and shout that it was impossible.

As long as Su Junping can remember, his mother has always had long hair, black and soft, with a little curl at the end. When he was held in his arms, the hair would fall off, sometimes falling on his face, sometimes falling on his arms There was a slight itching on her hair, which was very comfortable like a cat's tail scratching someone, and there was also a faint smell of shampoo. Although Yang Hong had changed many scents and brands, the smell had been diluted by her hair and turned into Su Junping. familiar smell.

Su Junping still remembered that the face hidden in the hair was smiling slightly.

That is a kind of proof, the proof of time, life and love. The falling hair made Su Junping feel the anger that had nowhere to vent, and the uncontrollable fear. These two emotions intertwined and formed a overwhelming wave that swallowed him. In his heart, the duck quacking on TV brought him back to his sanity.

Su Junping took a look, peeled another orange for his mother, said goodbye and left.When he closed the door, he saw his mother get up and go to the cabinet to get a tablet of medicine, if he guessed correctly, it was a painkiller.

Being sick is very painful.

Su Jun walked quietly in the hospital. Most of the patients on this floor were tumor patients, and they all spoke softly and kindly, as if they were afraid of disturbing their frivolous souls.

But Su Junping thought, will there be rewards for serving so carefully?Can a life be saved if people say it can be saved?Pushing everything but life to the other side can make the balance of fate tilt a little bit in your favor?

Hades told you to leave at the third watch, how could he keep you until the fifth watch.

He felt powerless spreading from his heart to his limbs. At this moment, someone suddenly hugged him from behind.

Chen Yilin wrapped his arms around him, and touched his eyes with one hand, as if looking for tears, Su Junping smiled and was about to move his hand away, when Chen Yilin pinched his cheek , pulled it out gently, revealing two big white teeth.

Su Junping: "..."

Chen Yilin let go of the other hand, and both of them made trouble together. After posing several squirrel shapes in front of the mirror, he shrank back before Su Junping could bear it no longer.

Su Junping: "If it's Wang Wenjie, he's been beaten to the point of crying by now, do you know that?"

Chen Yilin chuckled lightly and said, "I know." I know you are the best for me, he thought to himself, grabbed two handfuls of his hair, and dragged him out of the bathroom.

Chen Yilin didn't ask, every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, why bother to expose people's scars, but he has been holding Su Junping's hand for the subsequent purchases.

Su Junping was about to toss, but when Chen Yilin said that my hands were cold, Su Junping gently scratched his palm and stopped struggling.

It’s almost Chinese New Year and today is the special offer again, the supermarket is bustling with people, the line has been lined up to the back shelf, Su Junping is bored and leans on the cart to line up, feeling ashamed for his gaffe in his heart, wanting to say something, suddenly remembering that Chen Yilin invited me this afternoon Fake.

Su Junping: "Are you asking for leave today to negotiate compensation?"

Chen Yilin nodded.

"The results of it?"

"It's pretty good," Chen Yilin said with a smile, "According to the estimate, it's seven to three points. From today onwards, I'm a creditor."

Su Junping: "Debt collection is troublesome, isn't it?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, there is always a way." They arrived shortly after finishing speaking, and Chen Yilin hurriedly paid for it.

When I came out, I found that the sky was too dark. There were weird neon lights hanging on the camphor trees. Some were red, some were yellow, and some were white. Watery nose, white as clear water.

Su Junping was carrying two large bags of plastic bags, and looked at Chen Yilin's woven shopping bags with admiration, thinking that he was indeed a handsome guy at home.

He habitually glanced at the posters when he passed by the cinema, and happened to see one he was interested in, and excitedly grabbed Chen Yilin's hand and said, "Alin, Alin, let's go to the movies, shall we?! This is really good." !"

Chen Yilin didn't speak.

Su Junping's naturally rudimentary mind suddenly realized that Chen Yilin's grandma spent a lot of money on medical treatment, and he didn't have the spare money to buy a 40 yuan note.

He looked at Chen Yilin, he was much better than others in terms of appearance, conduct and grades, he was already good enough, even if God favored him a little bit, he could make his life go smoothly, but not—Su Junping looked at Chen Yilin, Suddenly asked:

"A Lin, do you hate this world?"

"The movie theater is recruiting people during the winter vacation."

The two sentences collided.

As soon as Su Junping finished speaking, he regretted that he had a second-year secondary attack. Hearing that recruiters rushed to find job advertisements all over the world, Chen Yilin pointed to the inconspicuous handwritten poster on the glass door and asked him, "Are you going?"

Su Junping was thankful that he didn't hear clearly, so he quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, you can go, I'll wait for you outside." After finishing speaking, he wanted to help Chen Yilin get the shopping bag.

Chen Yilin said thank you, handed him the shopping bag, turned around and left.

When he got to the door, he remembered something, folded back, and gently rubbed against Su Junping's ear, which made Su Junping's legs go limp. Chen Yilin took the shopping bag and said, "You go inside too, there is an air conditioner inside to warm you up."

Su Junping silently followed behind him.

When Chen Yilin approached him just now, he said to him in a very soft voice:

"I hated it for years."
