Snow falls silently

The weather cleared up on the first day of the new year, but it was still very cold and the snow had not completely melted.An's mother was preparing breakfast, and An Zhenghui started to set up the Peony Pavilion again.I just received a call from her sister, so I chatted with her, and the two chatted happily.

"Hey, hasn't Xiaozhao come back this year?" Mother An suddenly asked.

"I'm back early." Only the other end sighed.

"What's the matter? I don't see him coming to my house to play."

"When he came back, he brought a girl with him. He said he would spend the New Year at our house, but he went back within a few days. In fact, the first time I saw that child, I thought she was not suitable to stay in a place like ours. That child He hasn't been active since he left."

Mother An understood, "Sister, I'll introduce a good one to him next time, don't worry."

"I don't know how to tell him, anyway, it can be seen that he likes that child." I don't know how long we talked, and suddenly she opened her voice and called An Yuewei.

He ran down the stairs after a while, looked at his mother with a sleepy look on his face and said, "What are you shouting for, please keep your voice down."

"I'm still arguing with you." His mother saw the dark circles under his eyes, "You didn't sleep last night, did you?"

"Well, how can I sleep when it's so noisy."

"Your aunt asked when you're going to play."

An Yuewei was stunned for a moment, "Oh, I won't be going this year."

His mother wondered, "Don't you go every year? Why not this year?"

"Lazy." An Yuewei was about to leave after finishing speaking, but his mother said, "You don't want to visit your cousin anymore, he will leave in two days."

An Yuewei stopped in her tracks, turned back and asked her, "So fast?"

"Yeah, your aunt said that he has been very lethargic recently, and she said that she would leave after the new year. If you want to go, you can..." Before his mother finished speaking, he saw him running to his room, so he endured it. Can't help smiling.

After a while, I saw him running down with a bag, walked up to his mother and said, "Give me some money."

His mother took the money and gave him the fare, and then handed him a big bag, which seemed to contain a lot of things, "This is for your aunt, some supplements."

"Oh." An Yuewei carried the big bag and walked outside, suddenly a little timid. He didn't think too much about it just now, but he didn't dare to go now, so he turned around and asked, "You don't want to go."

"There will be guests at home these few days. I'll wait until I go. You go first."

An Yuewei turned to look at his sister again, "Sister, don't go."

An Yuejing was watching TV, and glanced at him, "I'll go with Mom."

Just after noon, An Yuewei got out of the car, and in front of him was a familiar scenery. He would come to this place almost every year, and every place was very familiar. It was still the snow scene that appeared every year, the icicles on the branches, and the A road leading to Fang's house.

When he reached the gate, he stood outside for a while and looked inside. There was no one in the yard, and the door of the house was open. He stood outside for a while, hesitating, when he suddenly heard "~ "Meow~", he looked down and saw that it was Xiao Huang, and suddenly his heart opened up a lot. He smiled, knelt down and put the things in his hands in the snow, and then patted Xiao Huang's head.

"Meow~" The cat rubbed against his palm a few times, then walked to his feet.

"It seems to have grown a lot." An Yuewei stroked the fur on his back and hugged him, "Hey, it's really heavy." After that, he squatted outside and played with the cat for a while, even No one noticed standing behind him.

"It's cold outside, come in quickly."

An Yuewei was stunned when he heard this voice, he loosened Xiao Huang, lifted up the things in the snow, and then raised his head to look at the person in front of him, only to see his face was very calm, "Brother."

"I'll do it." Fang Yongzhao went to pick up the things in his hand.

"Not sinking."

"It's still me." An Yuewei loosened the bag in his hand, and followed him into the house.

His aunt greeted him warmly, took out some food, talked to him for a while, and then went to work.There were only the two of them left in the room, and it suddenly became quiet, neither of them spoke first.

It was Fang Yongzhao who asked some insignificant things first, such as his situation at school and his family. It was not until his mother asked the two of them to have dinner that the rigid atmosphere was broken.After dinner, Fang Yongxin was watching TV in the living room. No one spoke. An Yuewei stared at the TV screen, only feeling that the people inside made his eyes dazzled. He didn't have much rest last night, and only felt it now that he was down Tired, he fell asleep slowly on the sofa.

Fang Yongzhao took a thick blanket to cover him, then went out, stood in the yard for a while, then walked out of the yard, An Yuewei woke up, looked around, and asked Fang Yongxin, "Where's your brother?"

"Oh, out."

An Yuewei lifted the blanket and walked out. When he reached the gate, he saw him standing outside the wall smoking, so he also went to stand beside him.Fang Yongzhao said to him, "Go in, it's too cold outside."

An Yuewei looked at him and shook his head. After a long silence, he suddenly said, "Brother, when are you leaving?"

"The car in the early morning of the day after tomorrow will leave tomorrow night. There will be no cars in the middle of the night."

"Oh."

The sky was very dark, and there was snow everywhere, which seemed to reflect a faint light, making the two of them and the snow stand out in black and white, like a dark black and white painting.The cold stars in the distance are faint, lightly lighting the silent night.

"Then I will go with you tomorrow."

"What are you doing in the middle of the night, sleep well at home."

"I'll send it off, and I'll be back at dawn."

"Don't go, it's too cold." Fang Yongzhao suddenly felt bored for some reason.

"It won't be cold after a short walk."

Fang Yongzhao didn't speak anymore. After smoking, he started to walk along the courtyard wall and didn't go home. An Yuewei also followed, stepping on the snow in depth and shallow, repeating the rhythm of the person in front , suddenly the person in front stopped, but did not turn around, "What are you doing here?"

"Brother." I could only hear the people behind approaching, "Can we still be the same as before?"

"Yes." Fang Yongzhao suddenly turned to look at him, and saw his blank face, and then his face, which was not very clear in the dark night, gradually became warmer, "I'm sorry, I spoke a little harshly before, those words are I said it out of anger, and I was a little impulsive, so don't take it too seriously."

"No." An Yuewei smiled.

Then I heard Fang Yongzhao say, "Also, forget everything you said before, forget it completely, we are still good brothers."

Gradually warming up, his face froze, and he froze again. He indifferently looked at the distant scenery that was no longer clear, and there were only faint traces to follow.He didn't speak for a while, Fang Yongzhao sighed secretly, and then walked towards the house.

An Yuewei looked at the tall figure who was gradually walking away and disappearing into the night. He stood there for a long time, his hands and feet were a little cold, and then he started to walk back.

During the day, the two of them were very quiet and rarely talked, but the others didn't notice the abnormality. Fang Yongzhao had been helping his mother with things. After dinner, he started packing his things. After everything was packed, he was almost ready to go. The last bus to the train station is at nine o'clock, and it will be gone if it is later.After saying hello to his mother, he was ready to go to the station.

"Brother, you're leaving now." Fang Yongxin saw his brother picking up his bag and walking towards the door.

"Ah."

"I'll take you to the station." Fang Yongxin, who was watching TV, threw away the remote control and was about to follow.

"Don't come, it's cold, you can help mom with work if you have time, do you hear me?"

"Oh, okay then." Fang Yongxin watched his brother go out, and then went to the kitchen to find his mother.

There is sunshine during the day, and the snow has melted a little, and the heat that is inadvertently taken away makes people feel a little chilly.Occasionally a gust of wind blows over, making the chill even worse.

Fang Yongzhao was walking when he suddenly noticed footsteps behind him, so he stopped, turned around and saw An Yuewei walking towards him, he ignored him and continued walking, the two walked silently, not very close It was a long road, but it seemed very, very long. At the intersection of the station, Fang Yongzhao stopped, looked at him and said, "Go back, I'm leaving."

"Yeah." An Yuewei responded but didn't move. He just kept staring at him, saw his back as he turned and left, watched him get into the car, and then the car started.

Fang Yongzhao stared at the person outside the window, the person had a faint smile on his face, and his heart was numb.
