across winter

On the day Xu Sihang called back, he sincerely comforted his parents. Secretary Xu made him kneel in the living room all night. I really keep this matter on my heart, I have to get this bad breath.Ms. Huo couldn't persuade Ms. Huo to cry, but she didn't persuade him, but it's okay. In the next few days, Sihang will use this reason to leave the door and not take the second door, and he won't take half a step. Don't jump around, no one will know you're back.

But today is different, today is New Year's Eve, and I have to go to the Huo family's old house to see grandma.

This year, the snow is more dense than in previous years. It’s not just a little bit. On the day of Chinese New Year’s Eve, every family’s eaves are decorated with red lanterns, but there is nothing in front of the eaves of other houses. The corresponding ground is covered with several layers of thin Snow.Children in the alleys come and go, either holding handfuls of snow or red candied haws in their hands. With the red padded jackets, it is a unique scene in the alleys.It's just that the blush is still on the childish faces, and some still have two slugs hanging on them, and they just refuse to put down their snacks to wipe them, which makes people angry and affectionate.

Boys are supposed to be naughty, throwing firecrackers or playing snowball fights, after all, girls are more obedient, and there are cute and lifelike snowmen piled up in the depths of the alley.

The old lady Huo was supported by Chengjuan, standing beside the stone lion in front of Huo's mansion, the snow was falling unhurriedly, the old lady had a cheerful expression on her face, her wrinkled face did not look like an ordinary old man's old man. Without the grace of a wealthy family, a bit of vigor and heroism seems to be embedded in the blood, and will not be carved with the years.

Mrs. Huo is the most patient and plays well with these juniors. Every year during the Spring Festival, there are groups of children who come to pay New Year's greetings. The cakes were distributed to the children one by one, and Mrs. Huo and Sister-in-law Cheng enjoyed a lot of thanks and New Year's greetings in Nunuuo's voice.

"Come in, you'll be nagged by Zhi Ning if you get cold carefully." Cheng Juan tidied up the dark green linen shawl with the old man. Mrs. Huo thought she had a heart, but she turned her head and started muttering about the steamed crispy fish Can the pot be cooked? After muttering about it, she entered the gate and headed towards the south of the east house. Cheng Juan saw that it was not the kitchen, and she was busy with the little ancestors. Cheng Juan looked at the busyness of the old ancestors. It's like dumbfounding.

The car whistled three times outside the door, and Cheng Juan knew without guessing that it was the third young master of the Zhou family who had arrived, so she quickly put down her work and went to pick up Zhi Ning. To come here empty-handed is a kindness from the younger generation.

But who's younger generation is so sensible, coaxing other people's ancestors as their own grandma?Of course there is respect, but in the end it is because of who and for whom, everyone has their own steelyard in their hearts, and they measure it by themselves.

Before he reached the hall, he saw Zhi Ning arriving with a few large boxes of New Year's goods, but he was still tall and straight, vaguely possessing the bearing of the old man of the Zhou family, and Mrs. Cheng felt a little relieved.Watching these children grow up and being so sensible, who would not like it?

"Auntie, these are all dry goods I brought back from the seaside on a business trip. Be careful, but I love you so much." Zhou Zhining didn't hold back, and gave all the things in his hand to Aunt Cheng.

After telling Aunt Cheng, Zhi Ning went straight to the south of the east room, following the old rules, Grandma Huo probably was messing around in the kitchen again.The bamboo and plum in the flower garden are growing very well this year, and it makes people very happy to look at them.

Hey, I was just thinking about the old lady, and when I took a closer look, it was Mrs. Huo. Before reaching the kitchen, Mrs. Huo turned back and stood under the eaves. The old lady Huo made a bow, walked over and stood beside the old lady, and finally called "Old Ancestor" seriously.Mrs. Huo squinted her eyes slightly, looked at the young man beside her, felt happy in her heart, and patted Zhining's shoulder lightly, secretly regretting that such a good person, the Huo Xu family didn't even have a girl. Which one will be cheaper in the future.

Not long after, horns sounded outside the door one after another, as if a naive child with a stubborn personality sneaked into an adult's car to play around. Cheng Juan received him at the door, and the old lady and Zhi Ning looked at each other and smiled, "It must be Siwei and Yaoyao and the others." Here we come." The old lady smiled.

"Yeah, they're going to bully me again. This year I'm the first one to come to my ancestors again." Zhi Ning smiled, helped the old lady to sit on the wooden chair under the porch, and Zhi Ning stood beside her and waited. with.

Xu Sihang had no choice but to put on his shoes and socks, changed his clothes, and got into the car behind his brother. Today, Xu Sihang was very silent and didn't say a word in the car. Going to see grandma so depressed? Do you believe that she is more energetic than you."

"I believe it, how can I not believe it?" Xu Sihang sighed, rolled up the car window and looked at the green plants in the garage that were retreating rapidly, worrying about how to face his grandma, who loved him the most when he beat his grandma, it was really hard for him to leave He broke the boat, thinking of his grandmother's sad appearance, his heart was like a knife gouging out.

The old house is not far away, but it will arrive in about ten minutes. A black Phaeton is parked next to it. Si Wei's eyes dimmed, but Si Hang figured out that Lin Shuyang liked this series of cars the most. He probably took Shu Yao with him. coming.

"Let's go, Captain Si." Grandma probably knew that the juniors were visiting on New Year's Eve, so she didn't even close the door. Si Hang and Captain Si entered the door side by side, and went to the west wing. It stands to reason that grandma should be there at this point. Waiting for them, but grandma should be very surprised to see him, right?Or angry.

Coincidentally, Si Hang and Si Wei had only walked about ten meters, and as soon as they entered the corridor, they saw grandma standing under the wisteria vine, and besides, Zhou Zhining who was becoming more and more handsome and energetic.

Xu Sihang stopped at the same spot, and Wei Si saw it when he looked up, and hesitated for a while, whether he should go forward or not.

Obviously, the old and young people opposite had seen them a long time ago. The old lady Huo who was sitting was supported by Zhou Zhining. Xu Sihang had a complex expression, but Zhou Zhining smiled at him from across the corridor, gentle, humble, like jade of.

Xu Sihang just thought of the stacks of white papers in his suitcase, and the 1826 A4 sheets of paper that were still left on the desk next to the Changbai fireplace, and the last sentence that ink seeped into the paper

"Zhi Ning, I really miss you."

Xu Sihang subconsciously touched the bell in his pocket, but forgot that he was too anxious to change his clothes today, and his heart was overwhelmed. He finally crossed the mountains and seas and met his sweetheart, but he was standing opposite him, but he didn't know what to say.

Zhou Zhining seemed to have been prepared for a long time. When he saw Xu Sihang, he was surprised, pleasantly surprised, but not unexpected.He heard his voice unusually calm, as usual, and smiling, he said

"Shang, long time no see."
