"Is it delicious?" Wei Qidong squinted at him.

"It's delicious!" Wei Xuan nodded, smiling brazenly, "I haven't eaten it for many years, it tastes really good."

"Go and buy them all!" Wei Qidong raised his chin with a worried expression on his face, and motioned to the candied haws hawker who was selling in the distance.

Wei Xuan curled his lips, thinking in his heart that he ate so much in one go just to let you strike up a conversation, but he didn't dare to say anything, and ran towards the vendor in a hurry.

Jiang Xiaoxi didn't expect Wei Xuan to come so quickly.

Wei Xuan, holding a whole shelf of candied haws outside the door, said with a smile on his face, "I ate all of yours, I'm sorry, so I bought you some more."

Reach out and don't hit the smiling man.

Jiang Xiaoxi took it silently, and was about to close the door, but Wei Xuan stretched out his hand to block it: "Xiaoxi, we've known each other for so long, and you haven't invited me to your house yet."

Then he walked in the door naturally.

Jiang Xiaochuan was pasting the Spring Festival couplets, stepped on the chair, and pasted the two sides of the door frame crookedly.Wei Xuan stepped forward to help a chair, and said, "Xiao Chuan, come down and replace me."

Jiang Xiaochuan jumped down at the sound, saw Wei Xuan stepping on the chair, and quickly pasted the Spring Festival couplets neatly.

"Brother Wei Xuan, why did you buy so many candied haws!" Jiang Xiaochuan turned around, startled by the rack of bright red fruits.During the time he was in the capital, he had a good relationship with Wei Xuan, and he was not as hostile as he was towards Wei Qidong.

Wei Xuan smiled, children are always easy to coax.

"Isn't this eating your brother's candied haws? My brother doesn't want to. He insists on letting me buy them all and send them to your brother, otherwise my brother won't let me go home for dinner." Embarrassed, Jiang Xiaoxi said, "Xiao Chuan, how about having lunch at your house today?"

Jiang Xiaochuan was not stupid, and laughed when he heard the words: "Your brother sent you to be a lobbyist, but my brother won't listen to it. If you just come to eat, that's fine. If you want to talk about other things, then my brother will appoint you to catch up with me." you go."

Wei Xuan clicked his tongue: "You child, it's not easy to coax."

Jiang Xiaochuan also clicked his tongue: "Big ones are harder to coax."

Regardless of their arguing, Jiang Xiaoxi put the candied haws rack under the porch and said to Xiao Chuan, "Keep two bunches, and send the rest to your classmates in the afternoon."

Jiang Xiaochuan clapped his hands: "Okay bro."

Wei Xuanwu wandered around the yard freely, looking here and there, and didn't say leave, he was very idle.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Xiaoxi brought out an iron pot, put it in the yard, and called Jiang Xiaochuan to take out the things that had been marinated in advance.

Wei Xuan leaned over curiously, and saw that marinated fish and shrimp, lotus root, and various doughs were neatly stacked in the basket next to the cauldron.

"What's this?" He sniffed it, but couldn't figure out why, so he simply took a bench and sat next to Jiang Xiaoxi to see what his brothers were going to do.

Jiang Xiaoxi didn't speak, just kept working.

Jiang Xiaochuan was so annoyed by his "28 whys", he had to explain to him carefully: "This is a custom on our island. On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, we make fried goods and prepare all the things to eat during the Chinese New Year. .”

"This is fish that has been marinated in advance, and this is pepper and lotus root with meat... Oh, this is my brother's small twist made with flour, eggs and honey, and it is also fried."

"...Yes, we no longer cook alone at noon, just eat this."

"...Okay, can you eat it after it's ready?"

"...you can put it in the refrigerator if you can't eat it, just for a good omen, and you can do it once a year, so it won't be wasted..."

"It's not that you can only eat this during the Chinese New Year, you can also eat other things, but every meal must have these..."

The first wave of small twists was fried, Jiang Xiaochuan took one and stuffed it into Wei Xuan's mouth, the young master finally shut up.

Take a bite, it is crispy and crispy, and the taste is so good.

"This is too delicious!" Wei Xuan grabbed another one and stuffed it into his mouth, his senses of taste and smell were greatly satisfied.

He was purely forced to come here by Wei Qidong this time.He had just met a fair-skinned and beautiful young model, and was about to fly to a foreign country for a holiday to enjoy a warm and fragrant holiday, but Wei Qidong called him to this place where no shit, and he had to be with him Chinese New Year here.

After he came, he found that Wei Qidong was not in good condition, so he had no choice but to swallow his complaints and give his brother Dong an assist at ease.

Before he came, he knew in his heart that it might not be so easy to make Jiang Xiaoxi turn back for what Wei Qidong did before.Don't look at Jiang Xiaoxi as weak and deceitful, but sometimes he has a tendon. Once he crosses the bottom line, it is difficult to pull back.

He felt that Wei Qidong had little chance of winning, until he saw an internal document signed by the group, he was shocked and finally realized that he was too young.

The scent lingered in the yard, Jiang Xiaochuan was in charge of the spoon, Jiang Xiaochuan and Wei Xuan chatted and ate non-stop, a sense of contentment and contentment aroused envy.

Wei Qidong stood at the corner of the platform on the second floor, looking at the happiness in the yard next door, a smile unconsciously came out of his lips.

Wei Xuan struggled.

He knew that Jiang Xiaoxi's cooking was delicious, but he didn't expect it to be so delicious.He guarded a big basket full of food, tasted this and that, and after a while his mind stopped wandering, and he had long since forgotten about Wei Qidong.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, Wei Xuan returned home with a large bowl of food.

Ask for credit before entering the door: "Brother Dong, I specifically asked Xiaoxi for it. It tastes very good. You should try it."

Wei Qidong raised his eyelids, did not show dissatisfaction, put a piece of fried fish in his mouth, and ate slowly.

In the evening, Wei Xuan came again.Jiang Xiaoxi was very annoyed, but he couldn't do anything to lower his face and drive people out.

He was holding a bunch of things in his hand, all kinds of snacks, decorative paintings, and the latest games.They were all brought from the capital, and they were not worth much. They were things that friends would give when they visited.

Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at the game and was a little moved, but he still looked at his brother's face. If his brother didn't speak, he couldn't answer.

"I took so much food from you at noon, here is a gift in return, don't be disgusted." Wei Xuan said politely, Jiang Xiaoxi would be hypocritical to refuse, so Xiao Chuan accepted it.

After sending people to the door, Jiang Xiaoxi stopped, looked at Wei Xuan seriously, and said, "I am very grateful for your kindness, but please don't come again."

Wei Xuan sighed, and said with an innocent face: "Xiaoxi, I'm really here for work, nothing else. No matter what happens to you and Brother Dong, we'll be friends anyway, don't drive me away like this."

Jiang Xiaoxi frowned and said nothing.

Wei Xuan felt a little more guilty, and without waiting for anyone to say anything, he said good night and left.

On New Year's Eve, the courtyard next door was brightly lit. Standing on the porch and looking up, Jiang Xiaoxi could see the shining lights and shadows on the opposite side, but it was very quiet.

They really didn't leave, and stayed on Duoyu Island for the New Year.

After eating dumplings, firecrackers sounded one after another outside. The festive and peaceful days always make people feel happy.

Jiang Xiaoxi took out a large plate of firecrackers, hung them up in the yard, and held a small flower in his hand. Before lighting the fuse, he said to himself: I hope the new year will be smooth and safe, Xiaochuan will study hard and grow up happily, and he will be peaceful Start a new life.

Throwing away the flowers, he covered his ears and ran to the corner quickly, bumping into Jiang Xiaochuan.

"Brother, you dare to start a fire with the courage of a sesame seed. If you tell me to order, you will not listen—"

The firecrackers crackled, suppressing Jiang Xiaochuan's complaints.The courtyard was brightly reflected by the splashing sparks, and Jiang Xiaoxi's bright smiling face was also reflected.

The old year has passed, wrapped in those pains, sunk in the deep ocean of time, and the new year will usher in new possibilities.

very nice.

"Xiaoxi, Xiaochuan, Happy New Year!" Wei Xuan shouted standing on the second floor.He held a large box of fireworks in his arms, and Wei Qidong stood behind him.

"Come, come, let's set off fireworks together. I bought a lot, wait for me!" After saying that, he ran downstairs and ran to Jiang's house.

The courtyard was too small, and he was afraid of causing a fire, so Wei Xuan dragged Jiang Xiaochuan to the open space outside the courtyard gate, and placed all kinds of fireworks all over the place.

Fireworks blasted into the sky one after another, blasting out gorgeous and bright mushroom umbrellas, and most of the island was brightly illuminated.After a while, many children on the island followed the movement, shouting and laughing lively around the surrounding area.

Everyone is eager for beautiful things. Standing in front of the door, Jiang Xiaoxi's eyes were also attracted. Such a beautiful firework has been seen on TV before, but seeing it live is another kind of reality and shock.

"Xiaoxi, Happy New Year."

Wei Qidong leaned over at some point, an arm's length away from Jiang Xiaoxi, with a deep and powerful voice.

The bright colors rising in the air are reflected on Jiang Xiaoxi's porcelain white face, people are more beautiful than fireworks.

Jiang Xiaoxi turned her head and looked at Wei Qidong, who was also tainted with the smell of fireworks, feeling a little dazed for a moment.His lips parted, and after a long time, he said softly, "Happy New Year."

Wei Qidong wore a thick red jacket, put his hands in his pockets, and lowered his head slightly, as if he was suppressing some emotions.When he looked up again, he had returned to normal.

"Thank you, Xiaoxi, for still being willing to talk to me."

I don't know if it's because the New Year's atmosphere is too good, but Jiang Xiaoxi always feels that Wei Qidong exudes a completely different atmosphere from before, which is a kind of gentle and cautious concession.

"I messed up again last time. It reminded you of many bad things. I'm sorry." Wei Qidong's voice was submerged in the roar of fireworks and laughter. It was very soft, but it was still clearly sent to Jiang Xiaoxi's ears, and it was very heavy. , making his eardrum hiss.

"I'm so jealous... I'm jealous that you smile at others, take others out to sea, and cook for others." He said, laughing at himself, and then said, "I can't do anything anymore... Then you get sick when you get sick. For a few days, I often thought that you just did some things that you should do to your friends, and I was so sad, so how painful it was for you when I was going to get engaged."

"Give me back all the things I did to you, it doesn't matter if there are more."

"Xiaoxi, don't forgive me so quickly, I don't deserve it."
