"I, have I seen you somewhere?" A drop of water fell down Chu Zhe's chin to the man's pale hand, and that hand was startled for a moment before letting go of Chu Zhe's wrist.

"Hey, how could it be?" Chu Zhe stretched out his hand to caress his face. It turned out that before he knew it, tears had flowed out unconsciously. Chu Zhe kept wiping the tears on his face with the back of his hand, but the tears It seemed that the faucet could not be turned off, until his eyes were reddened by his hands, the tears continued, and gradually Chu Zhe let out a low sobbing sound, he didn't know why, the more he cried, the sadder he was when he saw this person , how can not stop.

"You, can you stop crying?" The man lowered his head and stretched out his hands to rub Chu Zhe's jet-black hair.

"If you cry again, I don't know what to do."

Chu Zhe raised his head and saw that the man forcibly outlined a faint smile on his white face, and his white pupils were staring at him tightly.

Chu Zhe didn't know what he was thinking, he seemed to know that he was the only figure in those colorless eyes, as if he had been there for a long, long time. "I……"

"Ding ling ding ding ling, ding ling ding ding", Chu Zhe woke up suddenly, sat up from the bed at once, with the sound of his own "dong dong dong" heartbeat echoing in his ears.He stretched out his hands to cover his blushing and slightly hot face, "So, is this a dream!" Chu Zhe thought for a while, but how could it be so real, he looked down at his hands as if he was reminiscing What happened in the dream just now, I couldn't help but just covered my face on the bed and froze.

"Dingling, dingling, dingling..." The person who rang the doorbell had a very irritable temper, and the sound of the doorbell has not stopped since the beginning.

Chu Zhe scratched his hair that was curled up because he had just woken up, and slowly climbed out of bed and walked towards the door that kept making noise.

As soon as Chu Zhe opened the door, he saw his father carrying a big bag of things, blowing his beard and staring at the door, his eyes seemed to be as sharp as wanting him to be executed on the spot.

"Tell me, how long have I been ringing the doorbell, and why did you open the door!"

Angrily, the old man pushed away Chu Zhe's body blocking the door, and walked straight towards the kitchen.

"Hey, Dad, do you know what time it is? I was still here just now..." At this point, Chu Zhe's face felt uncomfortable and a little hot when he thought of what happened in his dream just now.

"What did you just now, eh, why is your face so red? Are you sick? Just say you young people pay attention now, you don't know how to pay attention to your body at such a young age..." The old man glanced at Chu Zhe and started busy in the kitchen again. His mouth was not idle and he continued to criticize Chu Zhe.

Chu Zhe went to the kitchen and watched the old man take out eight-treasure rice, sauced duck, red sausage and other things from the big bag and stuff them into the refrigerator. Because Chu Zhe lives alone in this house, he only bought a small one for the refrigerator. , the kind that can be filled with a few side dishes.

Now the small refrigerator is taking on a big responsibility. The old man is planning to stuff all the dozen things he brought into it. Chu Zhe really can't see the aggrieved expression of his own refrigerator, so he took those things from the old man. While separating dry goods from perishable things, he looked at the old man and said, "Dad, what do you think you are doing? There are so many, I can't eat them all by myself."

Seeing his son snatching his job, the old man had a leisurely time, so he went to the living room and took the remote control to change the channel.

"It's almost New Year's Eve, you homeless thing, your uncle and uncle miss you so much, if I don't come to arrest you, kid, I'm afraid you don't know where to go."

The old man transferred to a news station, where the announcer was reporting a child drowning case on Xuancheng South Street yesterday, "Tell me about the current world, even children can't escape." Chu Zhe came out of the kitchen wiping his hands I saw my father watching the news and sighing for a while.

There seemed to be a few more white strands in his gray-black hair, and there seemed to be more wrinkles around his eyes than when we met last time, and his tone of voice seemed to be older than before.

"Isn't it still some time before Chinese New Year? Why are you in such a hurry." Chu Zhe turned around and went to the kitchen to make a cup of hot tea and put it on the table.

"Hmph, you have a conscience." The old man took a sip of hot tea and said after a pause, "You are already twenty now, shouldn't it be time to go home and help out?"

Chu Zhe looked down at the floor and said without raising his head, "You know, I don't like getting involved in your affairs."

'boom! '

The water glass was slammed heavily on the table, and a few drops of hot water splashed onto Chu Zhe's hand due to too much force, but Chu Zhe still lowered his head as if he didn't feel it.

Seeing him like this, the old man suddenly became angry, and immediately lost the idea of ​​talking further, "If you still think that I am your father, come back and help me while you are on vacation, even if it is for your mother Also, alas..."

Chu Zhe's hands on the table had unconsciously clenched into fists. The old man had already left, and he was the only one left in the room. Only the sound of the clock 'tick tick' echoed in this empty room.Chu Zhe sat like this for a while.

"Mother, huh?"

Chu Zhe curled up his arms, buried his head in it, and stayed there quietly for a while.

"Brother, how is it, Xiao Zhe, has he promised to come back?"

"Not yet," the old man waved his hand and sat down on a sofa. The person who asked this question was a middle-aged man who looked a little younger than the old man. Looking closely, the two looked alike. But there was a hideous flesh-colored scar in the corner of his eye.The man who heard this sighed, sat next to the old man, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and exhaled a puff of cloudy smoke, "Is he still minding about the old sister-in-law? Alas, this child is fine , is the Tai axis, "

He smoked one puff at a time, and after a while the cigarette between his two fingers was more than half, "You, it's better to smoke less," the old man stood up, put his hands behind his back, sighed and left, the middle-aged man looked Looking at his leaving back thoughtfully, he put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, "It's all my fault..."

Chu Zhe felt that these two days had happened one after another. Yesterday morning he was still immersed in the sadness of breaking up with Feng Lei, and that night he had another inexplicable dream, and finally felt that he could take a rest Today, the old man came to the door again, and now he feels that his brain is about to explode.

Today is New Year's Day, January 1st, a day of reunion, but Chu Zhe is standing in front of the gate of a villa, but he doesn't move a single bit.

He has never felt that he is a person who hesitates when things happen. Although he doesn't like those things at home, but seeing his father's graying hair and aging face, he still can't bear to let him go.

He stood at the door thinking about how to face his so-called family members after entering.

Chu Zhe was born in a big family, he had many uncles, aunts and brothers and sisters, but as time passed, he gradually found that those elders who treated him so well on the surface missed him secretly.

Everyone was fighting and calculating, until after what happened to his mother, he finally couldn't bear the oppression brought to him by this family anymore, so he moved out alone and away from this family.

"Hey, isn't this Xiao Zhe, why are you standing at the door, come in quickly, your father has been waiting for you for a long time," a charming woman in a cheongsam met her eyes, with a tear mole at the corner of her eye, Every frown and smile reveals a provocative temperament. This is Uncle Chu Zhe's wife who just married the year before last.

Coincidentally, the uncle's last wife died the year before last.

She came with a smile, but Chu Zhe was not happy at all when he saw her. The woman wanted to pat Chu Zhe's shoulder like an elder, but he just stretched out her hand, but he deliberately avoided it. The smile stagnated for a while, and then returned to the smiling face just now.

"Got it, ma'am," Chu Zhe avoided the woman's sight and ran into the gate as if fleeing. At this time, many people had gathered in the room, some with Chu Zhe's faces familiar and some with unfamiliar faces. At this time, they were all in twos and threes. gather together.

Chu Zhe saw that the old man was sitting on the side as if he was talking on the phone with someone, Chu Zhe went straight over, the old man seemed a little surprised when he saw Chu Zhe, he waved his hand to Chu Zhe and signaled to wait for a while, Chu Zhe stood quietly by the side .

"Why are you coming?" The old man hung up the phone and turned to look at Chu Zhe, with unconcealable joy in his eyes.Chu Zhe had a panoramic view of the old man's mood, sighed silently in his heart and said, "Today, isn't it the reunion night, dad?" Chu Zhe's arm, grinning like a child.

Chu Zhe looked at his father's smiling face, and the sorrow in his heart seemed to dissipate a little.Just as he was talking, a man walked towards him in the distance. There was a scar at the corner of his eye. It was the man who talked to the old man this morning.

"Isn't this Xiao Zhe, it's so big!"

Chu Zhe lowered his head slightly and called out to his second uncle, "Well, good boy, it's good to be back. You were the closest to me when you were young, and I don't see you very often now."

He patted Chu Zhe's shoulder with a smile in his eyes.Chu Zhe only responded vaguely.The others also came to greet Chu Zhe one by one when they heard the commotion here.

Winter nights come especially early, reunion night reunion night, but there is no moon in the sky today.The old man pulled Chu Zhe to sit on the main seat. Chu Zhe lowered his head and felt that other people's eyes were focused on him at this moment.

Sitting next to Chu Zhe, the old man cleared his throat, raised his head and glanced at the others, and said, "It will be a new year in a blink of an eye, and there must be a new look in the new year. I'm getting old too, and I'll take care of all the odds. Can't stop," the old man paused, picked up the teacup in front of him and sipped it, Chu Zhe could feel the eyes on him starting to become hot, some of them were kind, but more of them wanted to make him The hatred of skinning and tearing bones.

"This is my unfilial son, please take care of him in the future," the old man patted Chu Zhe's shoulder, motioning him to stand up and bow.This sentence of taking care of you seems to be calm and breezy, but it is as harsh as fingernails scratching on the blackboard in the ears of other people present.

Chu Zhe was born into an unusual family. His father and his brothers had been on the Tao for more than twenty years.At first, everyone got along fairly cordially, but at some point, people's hearts changed, and the family became turbulent, making it even more difficult to see through.

Everyone wants to have more rights. In their eyes, there is no distinction between family and affection. There are only people on my side and people on the opposite side.

Although the current underworld is no longer the same as it used to be, and it is not the business of killing people, but the people's hearts are even more terrifying now. The people who were calling you brothers and sisters one second may stab you in the back the next second. You will still smile and say with a knife: "No way, who told you to block my way." '

Chu Zhe finished the meal in a depressing and dull atmosphere. Everyone at the dinner table had fake smiles on their faces. Chu Zhe felt that if he stayed with them for a long time, maybe he would become the one he hated. .

So before it was over, Chu Zhe bid farewell to the old man in advance, saying that he still had something to do at school. Before leaving, the old man pulled him along and told him that it didn't matter if he took his time at home. The point was to pay more attention to his body. Zhe just smiled and agreed.

Chu Zhe was walking on the 11th road on the way home. The night of the reunion night was still a bit cold. The wind in the night carried a slight chill, but it blew away the dullness in his heart. He took a deep breath He spat out heavily again, looking at the dark night and thinking, 'Forget it, now I can only take one step at a time. '

In this way, Chu Zhe felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, and his steps became much lighter. Looking at the surrounding scenery, he slowly wandered to Xuancheng South Street without knowing it.
