Because the village arrived at night, the Gu family's old house was brightly lit at night, and the electric light in front of the door was on all night.

On the way to welcome a few teenagers back to the house, the roar of the chartered car in the quiet mountain village directly woke up the nearby dogs.

The dogs thought that something happened, and they barked through the courtyard wall. Gu Xing felt embarrassed sitting in the car, and wanted to tell the driver to drive slower, but he saw that he was about to reach the gate, so he didn’t say anything. .

The Gu family's courtyard is a very simple old row house with black tiles and white walls that have been renovated. The traces of whitewashing can still be clearly seen through the dim lamps under the eaves.

The yard is not big, and there is no wall to surround it, but there is a concrete vacant lot in front of the gate, which can be used for parking.

There is a separate pool in the yard, and the chicken coop on the right side of the yard has a sealed well. The big stones pressed on it are covered with fine ice foam, shining like gold in the moonlight of the twelfth lunar month.

Gu Xun was like a little master, as soon as the car stopped, he immediately whispered: "Be quiet, everyone is asleep."

Uncle Gu rubbed his hands, his face was flushed red from being warmed in the air-conditioned car, he looked at his nephew and smiled, "It's okay, everyone is far away, we'll be fine if we don't talk loudly. By the way Do you have any luggage? I asked Dawa to come out and help."

Da Wa is Uncle Gu’s son, but he is not his own. Gu Xun didn’t know about it when he was a child, and he accidentally found out about it from Da Wa brother two years ago. He was shocked in his heart, but on the surface he didn’t Show every minute, for fear of making the eldest brother feel uncomfortable.

"Brother didn't sleep either? Uncle, I sent you a message that we are coming, not to ask you to help with the luggage, hey." The young man was helpless, he was just afraid that when he arrived, his uncle would fall asleep and no one would open the door for them , As a result, the uncle waited all day.

It's still his own fault that he didn't arrange it properly. He shouldn't go to any tea restaurant during the day, which wasted a lot of time. Otherwise, they would have arrived before dawn, and they wouldn't be busy now.

"What's the matter? It's rare for you to bring your friends here. Uncle is happy." Uncle Gu still smiled. He stood up and got out of the car. When he got off the car, he asked the last classmate who got out of the car while holding the car wall, and said, "What's wrong with this kid?" Huh? Are you sick?"

Gu Xun went up to give him a hand, but someone pinched his hand and dragged him back. In the blink of an eye, the person who pinched his hand took his place and put his arms around Ji Junshao, but he didn't know if it was okay to go. It was too fast, and Ji Junshao half-deadly begged, "I rely on Fang Laosan, do you fucking want me to die? Slow down."

Song Jiaming didn't know why, thinking that Ji Junshao was motion sick, he said, "I told you I have motion sickness medicine here, bro."

"Bullshit motion sickness medicine, I can just lie down. By the way, Xiao Xun, is there any hot water? Give me the whole basin, I want to wipe my body."

"Is Xiao Xun your servant?" Fang Yan couldn't help but frown.

"What, when did I order him? Usually, before you speak, Xiao Xun will help you. I am dying now. Please do me a favor. Someone give me a pot of hot water. I thank you." He is an ancestor of eight generations." Young master Ji let his snot hang on his lips, without any usual demeanor.

Gu Xun was also in a hurry and didn't have time to greet the others, so he followed the wounded man and asked his uncle if there was any water in the kitchen, so he trotted to the kitchen.

Many places in the house have indeed been renovated, especially the small door that can directly enter the kitchen from the yard. The threshold in front of the front door has long been soaked by rain and snow, and later mice and wild cats in the mountains came to eat it. A small hole was dug, but it was plugged up when I came back this year.

The off-white one is made of lime, and the threshold is not too low, so you have to lift your feet to get in.

Gu Xun jumped in, smeared and pulled the light cord by the door, "snap" all of a sudden, the appearance of the entire kitchen came into view.

Gas is connected to the house, but the stove used in the early years has not been left idle. Uncle seems not used to using gas, so he still cuts a lot of dry wood and piles it behind the stove, which is convenient for use.

There are two thermos bottles with green bodies next to the gas tank in the kitchen. The white handles are black and black. I don’t know what has stained them like this. When Gu Xun saw it, he subconsciously thought of just these thermos bottles. I don't want to touch it, this person is a bit of a clean freak.

Go get the basin again.

He searched under the pool for a while, and found several pots, all of which were dirty, and some of them still contained vegetables.

The boy suddenly remembered that his uncle lived in the mountains, he was used to saving money, and he didn’t pay much attention to it. He basically didn’t take a bath in winter, and there was no basin for bathing. foot.

So every time I go back to my hometown, my father will bring a new basin in his trunk, or he will go to the town half an hour away by car to buy it.

Originally, Gu Xun thought it was enough to go to the town to buy things the next day, and it would be fine for everyone to just spend the night. Well, in winter, no one has to take a bath if they are sweating, as long as they can wash their faces and brush their teeth.

now...

Gu Xion thought about it, and then thought of Ah Yan, thinking that this person is indeed very particular, and Ji Junshao also needs basins, so he just wash all the basins with soap.

He just did it, rolled up his sleeves, poured hot water into the tin basin, added cold water to neutralize it, and then started washing with soap.

But to be honest, Gu Xun has never done a similar job.

He poured too much hot water at once, and then added cold water. After adding too much cold water, he always felt that the inside of the basin was greasy, and his hands seemed to be covered with oil, so he hurriedly poured out the water, feeling Refill with clean water to clean the basin.

Going back and forth like this three or four times, the not-so-hot hot water was exhausted. Gu Xun squatted in the kitchen in a daze for a second, looking at the foamy hands and basin on the floor, and at the empty hot water bottle. He said to himself, "Then we have to boil the water first."

"I think you have to go to rest first." A person came from the door leading to the lobby. While taking off his coat, he walked up to the boy who was still squatting on the ground. He was so devastated as he was at the end of the day, "Hold on."

Fang Yan pulled Gu Xing up, stuffed his coat over it, then rolled up his sleeves, walked to the gas stove, turned on the fire, found that there was no gas, immediately went to the stove and squatted down, took out the lighter from his pocket I lit the hay on the side and put it into the burner, then stood up and looked at the surrounding environment, filled the big iron pot with water and put it on the stove, moved two small stools beside it, and said to the silly little drunk: "Sit down. .”

Holding Fa Xiao's clothes in his arms, the boy looked at the bubbles on his hands that had stained his clothes a little, and hesitated for a while.

"Come and have a seat, it's warm here." The taciturn rich young master was next to the old-fashioned fire, and the fire from the hole illuminated his handsome face that had been anxious for a whole day, making people feel safe and confident when he looked at it. The imposing manner like cold iron suddenly restrained.

Seeing Ah Tuan like this, Gu Xing couldn't help feeling that Ah Tuan seemed very lonely.

So he took two steps forward, and finally sat on the small stool, sitting side by side with his Ah Yan, warming up with the fire.

"They're all in bed, at Datong's shop. Ji Junshao is probably going to fall asleep too. I'll wake him up when the water is ready." Fang Yan tilted his head and said to Xiao Xun.

"Oh." Gu Xing blinked, always feeling that the light of the fire made people's eyes dry, and they had to squint.

"Little drunk..."

"kindness?"

The slightly tall boy sitting on the left looked at Xiao Xun, who was sitting obediently beside him, and wanted to ask a few words, but when he met Gu Xing's watery eyes, he immediately stopped and couldn't say anything, and just asked: " Are you angry with me today?"

Gu Xing's face was hot, but maybe it was because of the firelight.

The boy thought for a while, then said softly, "En..."

"Then I apologize."

"Huh?" What does apologizing mean?

Does it mean that you will never chase after yourself in the future?I won't like myself anymore, do you still want to be good friends?

"It's not what you think." Fang Yan squeezed the tongs on the side and adjusted the position of the dry grass and dead branches, making the fire a lot brighter in an instant, and sparks like flying flowers flew out like fireflies.

Seeing the blurred eyes of Huoxian, Gu Xing always thought it was very beautiful, he liked this scene.

Fang Yan looked at Gu Xun, his eyes lit by the fire were extremely resolute, he liked Gu Xun.

"My apology is not only for today, but also for the future."

"In the future?" The beautiful little drunk's heart moved, and he felt the embarrassing gaze, so he never looked at Ah Yan beside him, but only looked at the hole where the fire was burning.

"In the future, I'm afraid there will be many, many things that will make you unhappy, angry, and even make you cry, but I will try my best to keep a sense of proportion, take it step by step, take my time, and never force you."

"I'm no worse than anyone else, Xiao Xun, look at me more, don't look at others."

"OK?"

The young man almost hid his face in Fang Yan's overcoat, only showing a pair of smart and beautiful eyes, and after a long time, he hummed an aggrieved sentence: "How can you apologize in advance if you want to bully someone?"

"You don't want to bully people." The boy next to him turned his head to look at Xiao Xun coaxingly, as if talking to a child gently, "I just hope you don't be afraid, don't hide from me, just feel it, I don't For other requests, please let me beg you, Xiao Xun."
