Two Continents

Chapter 43 You might as well relax

At 08:30, the family finally reunited and sat down to eat the New Year's dinner. Fu Haoyu excitedly brought out two large plates of freshly fished dumplings from the kitchen, and one was placed on the side of the table: "Who eats the red dates in the dumplings?" He is the luckiest person!"

Bai Nana moved her chopsticks first: "I want to eat my brother's bag!" The little girl stabbed at one of them. Ji Kaifeng took a look, and luckily it wasn't the ones he made for his brother.Ji Xiaoxiao secretly poked a few holes in the dumplings made for him, buried dates in them, and waited a while to put them in his brother's bowl.

Bai Che leaned over to pour wine and drinks into everyone's cups: "Nana, grab one for uncles, aunts and mother first."

The little girl obediently put the first dumpling into Mama Bai's bowl, and gave Tang Ai's parents a big one in the past: "Happy New Year, Mom! Longevity! Happy New Year, uncles and aunts! I wish you all the best Always smile!"

The elders were amused by the clever little girl, and Ji Kaifeng also made dumplings for the elders, and then he brought some private goods and put the most beautiful one he made in his brother's bowl.Bai Che took a small bite, and the round jujube tip was exposed. Ji Kaifeng glanced at his brother picking up the jujube, as if it was sweet to his heart.

Not long after, it seemed that everyone had one, only Ji Kaifeng hadn't eaten yet, but he didn't want to pick up the dumplings he had marked.Bai Che picked up a dumpling and put it in his dipping dish: "Xiaofeng usually studies hard, so eat more." This reminded Ji Kaifeng of his brother feeding him like a pet pig when he was young.

He swallowed the dumpling in one gulp, only to squeak his teeth, and rolled out the red culprit with his tongue before choking himself.

"Hey, we Xiaofeng ate the biggest one." Master Fu happily picked up the wine glass and clinked it with him with a "ding".

After the lively New Year's Eve dinner, Tang Ai said New Year's blessings to his parents and went home for a good night's sleep.Bai Che and his younger sister were in Mama Bai's room talking to her mother. After all, they were leaving tomorrow.Fu Haoyu was alone in Haitian City, and there was no one to warm the bed, so he stayed at Bai Che's house all night to gain popularity.Ji Kaifeng's bedroom is almost becoming a guest room, and Fu Haoyu and Tang Ai take turns living there.But Ji Kaifeng didn't care. There were neither love letters nor pornographic paintings in his room, and he was open and frank.

Just when Ji Kaifeng thought he was frank, Master Fu's loud voice came from his room: "Wow, Xiaofeng, why do you keep your name so precious?"

Ji Kaifeng hurried to see what Master Fu found out about him.

Master Fu pinched a piece of yellowed square paper in his hand, and quickly explained: "I didn't look through your things. I picked up the box that fell off your bookshelf when the curtain was drawn just now."

This is his brother holding his hand and teaching him to write his own name stroke by stroke.Ji Kaifeng bypassed Master Fu's first question, and only said: "It's okay." Then he folded the paper with his back to Master Fu and put it back in the box. He put the box back and picked up another cloth bag next to it.

Inside the cloth bag was a consecrated jade Buddha statue that he got when he accompanied Mama Bai to the temple to offer incense. A mage left a wish for peace on the Buddha statue.

It has always been a custom for Bai Mama to offer incense during New Years and festivals, and she often does some volunteer work in normal times.After his brother went to study, Ji Kaifeng took the initiative to take up the responsibility of accompanying and taking care of Bai's mother. As long as he was free, he would go with him.

The growth environment of the smuggling boats and the slums in Tongzilou created Ji Kaifeng's indifferent personality of "the world is not benevolent, and he would ask him to do anything". In the previous life, Bai Che devoted all his efforts to caring for him to correct the boy's hostility towards the world. .Although Ji Kaifeng's attitude was right, it was impossible for him to kneel in front of the Buddha statue and kowtow devoutly.

Mother Bai is a person who is content with whatever happens. The little guy has already taken better care of her than many other relatives in the family, which makes her very satisfied.

Mama Bai, who was dressed in elegance, lighted incense quietly, and Ji Kaifeng was unconsciously infected by her calm and gentle temperament.The years have left lines on the corners of her eyes. Although she has experienced ups and downs in life, the mother in front of her does not look old and tired.Just standing in front of the incense burner so gracefully and gracefully, elegant and dignified.

The footsteps of people passing by in the temple were light and solemn, just looking at her like this, Ji Kaifeng suddenly calmed down, reached out for a stick of incense and lit a smoke on the candle.Mother Bai noticed his movements and just smiled softly beside him.

He still didn't kowtow on the cushion, but stood openly in front of the Buddha statue, holding incense in his hands, folded his hands and closed his eyes, and made a pious wish.He said this wish for a long time, maybe just said it many times, then bowed slightly, silently and firmly inserted the incense into the incense pool.

A master walked out of the hall slowly, stopped when he passed by Ji Kaifeng, bowed slightly to him with palms together, and said: "Sincerity leads to spirit, everything depends on wish."

Ji Kaifeng stood silently, the mage seemed to look from the top of his head all the way to his tightly pursed lips, and said again: "Little benefactor, why not relax about one thing or one person, look at the gurgling water, If you try to seal it in a jar, it will inevitably become stagnant water in the end, and if you let it flow, it will eventually turn into rainwater and pour down."

He had a thought in his heart and moved.Then the master took out an emerald Buddha: "I see that the little benefactor is destined to be with me. You can take this consecrated emerald Buddha, it will keep you safe."

Ji Kaifeng stretched out his hand to take it, but Master didn't let it go, and said: "The little benefactor needs some sincerity for this Jade Buddha to work. The merit box is over there. Please feel free, little benefactor."

"..." So the master said so much because he wanted to sell this jade Buddha to him?

With Mama Bai on the side, Ji Kaifeng took out a hundred and put it in.

Master clasped his palms together in satisfaction, chanted the phrase "sometimes in life, there must be something eventually", and floated away.

What the master said went into his heart, and he was worried about and worried about his brother.

Ji Kaifeng thought that it might take a long time before he could sneak this into his brother's belongings, but he didn't expect his brother to come back.

Recalling this, he thought his brother was wearing it, but Bai Che didn't hang anything around his neck, so he took it out to stuff it into his brother's wallet and left a note.Ji Kaifeng went out of the room and closed the door for Fu Haoyu, took out the Buddha statue, and was stunned for a moment.

A small crack appeared on the jade Buddha statue.

Since he returned home, the cloth bag has been placed in the bookshelf by him, and it has never been dropped. How could it be cracked... Ji Kaifeng felt flustered for no reason.It is inevitable for him to believe in some rumors of disordered ghosts and gods, thinking that this is a very bad omen.

Fu Haoyu was grinning and humming a tune. When he opened the door, he was about to come out to take a shower, but he didn't stop and bumped into Ji Kaifeng's back.The Jade Buddha almost fell out, Ji Kaifeng's heart twitched in fright and he held the rope tightly, and the Jade Buddha dangled on the rope.

"Hey, didn't it hurt you, Xiaofeng! Why are you standing at the door?!"

Ji Kaifeng shook his head, and left without a clue.Fu Haoyu tilted his head to look at the little thing and didn't think much about it at the moment. Grandpa Fu had a very happy New Year tonight, and went to take a bath singing songs.

Sitting on his brother's bed, Ji Kaifeng lay on one side facing the wall and took out his mobile phone to look through various materials. He became more and more flustered, and didn't notice that his brother and Bai Nana had left Mother Bai's room.Bai Nana jumped onto the bed, and Ji Kaifeng almost suffocated.

Bai Nana looked curiously at him and hurriedly hid the phone: "Second brother, are you peeking at the pornographic book!"

"..." Where did Bai Nana learn all this!What is going on with this little girl growing up!

Ji Kaifeng said angrily, "You must be watching secretly."

Bai Che laughed helplessly listening to the conversation between the two guys. The younger sister has a lively personality, so it may not be a bad thing, but he was a little worried that Bai Nana, who played with Ye Xiaoxuan every day, would lead Ye Yunfei, who was originally a quiet sister, astray. ...

"Second brother!...Huh! I'm leaving tomorrow and I want to talk to my second brother more, huh, I hate it! I won't talk to you anymore!" The little girl's voice was twisted and twisted, and she jumped off the bed after speaking I went back to my room.

Bai Che sat on the bed and pinched the corner of the quilt for him: "Go to sleep, it's getting late."

Ji Kaifeng suddenly straightened up and hugged his brother's arm: "Brother, you can change the ticket. I think... I want you to stay a few more days..."

His brother pushed him down: "I have to go back to class, I'm going to pack my things for the plane tomorrow morning." Ji Kaifeng quit, and got up to follow his brother to clean up. Bai Che didn't want to mess with Bai's mother just after she fell asleep. There was a ping-pong sound, and he couldn't hold back the boy, so he had to lie down and be An Xin in Ji Kaifeng's arms.

In the middle of the night, Ji Kaifeng finally couldn't hold on and fell asleep. His brother quietly got up to pack his things.When Ji Kaifeng got up, his brother and Bai Nana had already left.

Ji Kaifeng sat on the bed holding Yu Lengshen in a vacant heart.For the next day, Ji Kaifeng was absent-minded, checking the news all the time, for fear of seeing any news about the plane crash.In the end, it was the news of his brother's safety report on the ground that stabilized Ji Kaifeng's little heart.

Life is back on track again, and the heavy review and preparation for exams fills up Ji Kaifeng's time and thoughts, and temporarily puts this matter in his heart.

Over the years, the uninterrupted quizzes and major exams made the third year of high school pass very quickly. Ji Kaifeng put aside all his thoughts, and even Zhu Mengmeng avoided his preparation for the exam, and did not give Ji Kaifeng any work for the time being.

His brother would still reply to his messages within an hour, and gradually, Ji Kaifeng was no longer nervous about the rift.
