For The Rest of Our Life

Lin Xian took a bite of the sandwich with a small bite and thought she was quite satisfied with her craft. After drinking most of the glass of milk, she licked the milk foam on her lips and satisfactorily admired Xiao Wanqing’s pleasing meal manners. Suddenly she remembered an important matter and asked Xiao Yunqing: "Aunt Xiao, you and Wen Auntie, did I want to go to Wanquan Villa with you on New Year's Day for New Year's Eve? Did Aunt Wen agree?"

Aunt Xiao just finished drinking the last point of milk. She got up and put the cup and saucer into the kitchen next door, while answering her: "Last night when I remembered it was too late, I was afraid she was asleep, so I did not disturb her first." She washed After washing her hands, she walked back to the dining table and sat down, laughing, "I don't know if she got up at this time of the weekend. I'll send a text message to her first, and she will return to me when she sees it."

She took the mobile phone on the table, opened the first one of the SMS contacts in a neat place, and edited the text message to Wen Tong: "Did you get up? I suddenly remembered that on December 31, I might not have a hot spring bath. ."

She put down her phone and thought that it would take a long time for Wen Tong to reply to her. Unexpectedly, as soon as the phone was put down and the screen was not dark, Wen Tong's reply message came in.

"Relatives visit? It's okay, then we can eat and watch fireworks in the past."

Lin Xian swallowed a bite of the sandwich and narrowed his eyes: "Aunt Wen returns quickly."

Aunt Xiao smiled disapprovingly and said, "Maybe I just woke up, put the phone on the bed." She danced her fingers on the screen of the phone and asked Wen Tong: "Envy New Year's Day is not going home for New Year's Eve. Want to see the fireworks, can I invite her to go together?"

This time, Xiao Yunqing thought that Wen Tong should reply to her soon, so instead of putting down her mobile phone, she took her mobile phone and opened today's news at random, waiting for Wen Tong's text message to come in.

However, she was wrong again.

Five minutes later, the phone, quietly, did not respond at all.

Lin Xian also finished eating, she wiped her mouth with a tissue, and Zuo Ruo casually asked her to say Xiao Wanqing: "Aunt Wen doesn't want me to be your light bulb?"

Xiao Wanqing stared at the mobile phone frowning in confusion, gently shook his head and relieved Lin Xian: "I just haven't seen it yet, maybe I got up and washed up after returning to my text message." She stood up and rubbed Rubbing Lin Xian's hair, she said: "How can children always think so easily, we are envious of everyone, Aunt Wen must be too late to welcome."

She naturally packed up Lin Xian's dishes and cups, walked to the kitchen, put them in the star bowl, and washed them with the utensils she had just used.

Lin Xiangang just wanted to keep up with Xiao Wanqing's pace, and saw that the phone that Xiao Wanqing placed on the table vibrated and the screen lit up. Lin Xian glanced closer, and the screen reminded that there was a new text message.

Lin Xian grabbed the phone and ran into the kitchen in two steps, knowing: "Aunt Xiao, your phone is on. Did Aunt Wen return text messages?"

Xiao Yunqing was turning on the faucet to feed the tableware, but couldn't draw her hand. She looked back at Lin Xian with a sound, and trusted: "It should be your Aunt Wen returned the text message, the screen password is 5566, open it and take a look."

Lin Xian froze for a moment. She looked at Xiao Wanqing with her back against her slim figure, and her lips gradually burst into a radiant smile, her eyes waved like water.

A person with such a heavy heart, already, do you believe her like this?

Her heart softened and soft, and Xiao Xiaoqing said softly, "Okay". Then she tapped the screen with her fingertips, entered the password at once, and unlocked the screen lock.

The first thing that caught Lin Xian's eyes was the screen, a cartoon desktop painted on white background, depicting a warm picture of a young couple with a little girl flapping butterflies. Lin Xian stared at the desktop, and there was a slight rise in his heart.

She clicked on the text message, and sure enough, it was Wen Tong's reply.

Wen Tong said: "Okay. I can ask a friend for another ticket, but there may not be a room for the night in the villa."

Lin Xianru read it to Xiao Wanqing. Xiao Yunqing's head did not respond softly, "You can help me back to her and say, it's okay, I and you will be back after watching the fireworks, and it shouldn't take long to drive."

Wen Tong returned to her after receiving the letter: "Then it's okay, I will let my friend leave an extra ticket."

After Lin Xian returned the text message, he looked at the number of 386 text messages in the upper right corner of the text message interface. His eyes were dull and dull for a moment. But in a flash, she calmed down. When she saw that Wen Tong no longer sent text messages, she shut the interface properly and locked the screen.

She put down her mobile phone and ran happily to Xiao Wanqing. With her hands around Xiao Wanqing's slender waist, she hugged Xiao Wanqing from behind and placed it on her shoulder. She thankfully said, "Thank you Aunt Xiao, you are so kind to me."

Warm breathing hit Xiao Yunqing's white neck. Xiao Yunqing shivered a little, feeling that the neck was a little itchy between the girl's breath.

Itchy, as if, along the meridian all the way into his heart...

She moved a little unnaturally in Lin Xian's arms, but she didn't struggle too much. In the end, she still obeyed the tenderness she wanted to be close to Lin Xian, and gently rubbed Lin Xian's forehead with her cheek, teasing her: "The ticket was set by your Aunt Wen, thank you, I should thank you Aunt Wen ."

Lin Xian bowed his head lovingly, as Xiao Wanqing could not see, almost touched the thin hair behind Xiao Yunqing's brain with his thin lips, closed his eyes, his voice was calm, sincerely said: "Thank you Aunt Wen."

Thank you Aunt Wen. Thank you for being with her for so many years.

However, love does not come first.

None of us can be generous.

So, sorry, Wen Tong.

In the dim bedroom without opening the curtains, Wen Tong bent his knees, his hair was messy, and he leaned half on the bed. With the undimmed fluorescence of her mobile phone, she looked sideways at the bedside of her bed for several days, and she made small lanterns, one by one, painted one by one, with her own hands. The lantern body is pink, and at the bottom of the lantern is a delicate tassel tassel. The tassel is in the center, but it is unusually empty. It is tied with a long strip of red paper. It is vaguely visible, with black ink writing on it. What's wrong.

After a long while, Wen Tong dropped his mobile phone and opened his eyes. The gentle smile on his lips at first because of Xiao Xiaoqing's text message had long since disappeared. Instead, it was a wry smile.

Maybe, it's still not the right time.

She closed her eyes and comforted herself.

On December 31, Xiao Wanqing was as inconvenient as Lin Xian expected. Since he does not soak in hot springs, he only participates in the evening activities, so Xiao Wanqing and Lin Xian did not set off until the evening.

Wen Tong did not go along with them and did not come over to meet. The three agreed on a meeting place in the villa.

At the entrance of the villa, Xiao Wanqing discovered that there were more people than expected. There was a long queue at the entrance ticket office. Xiao Wanqing couldn't help but feel a little stunned. Is a fireworks display so grand and lively?

She drove the car for several laps before finally finding an empty parking space in a parking lot slightly away from the entrance of the villa. The car was parked, and the two got out of the car. After being blown by the cold night wind, it was a little cold. Xiao Yunqing unconsciously rubbed his hands together and rubbed it.

The next second, her cold hands fell into the warm palms of Lin Xian.

Lin Xian buckled Xiao Wanqing's soft five fingers and took her hand into the warm pocket of her down jacket. She tilted her head and said playfully: "It's time again for the small heater to work."

Xiao Wanqing's eyebrows softened and he didn't struggle at all. He was used to it.

With another free hand, she carefully helped Lin Xianli to manage the scarf that had slipped off her neck, and said warmly: "Go, small heater."

The small heater smiled brightly at her, making her not only warm her hands, but also her heart.

At the VIP channel window, Xiao Wanqing reported Wen Tong's phone number according to Wen Tong, and the two walked unimpededly through the fast track to the villa.

Earlier, Xiao Wanqing had been to this place under the organization of a magazine. The so-called mountain villa is actually more like a small leisure resort, with hot springs, swimming pools, entertainment facilities, and beautiful scenery. Although the scenery is beautiful, it is not really special. In fact, she did not have much expectations for the New Year's Eve tonight. For many years, she didn’t like trouble, and had never treated these holidays differently, so every time Wen Tong wanted to ask her to spend a lot of money on the New Year, she politely refused.

However, this time, when I walked through the original passage of the villa, turned, and really stepped into the boulevard of the villa, Xiao Wanqing was still a moment of surprise.

The winter day and the night are long, at this moment, the night is already low, Xiao Xiaoqing's impression, this section of the road should be unremarkable, quiet, only the tall street lights emit a faint light.

Now, on this three-meter-wide boulevard, there are bright lights, bustling and noisy. On both sides of the road, under the tall king coconut trees are colorful, beautifully made and complex arch-shaped lanterns. The lanterns radiate brilliant brilliance in the dark night, one after another, and at a glance, it seems as if you can't see the end.

Under the arch, there is an endless stream of people, and many passing pedestrians are stopping to watch carefully. Xiao Wanqing and Lin Xian couldn't avoid the vulgar, they stopped a few steps and were breathtaking. However, on the road of 100 meters, the two walked for twenty minutes before they left.

The arch at the end of the flower lantern is still not the dim imagination, but more magnificent. Lin Xian glanced at the sight of the pavilions, pavilions, and numerous red lanterns, which hung in an orderly manner, exuding warm and dazzling light. For a moment, she felt that they seemed to have strayed into the world of lights.

Lin Xian's heart sank in shock. Today, is there just a fireworks show? If she didn’t come today, Wen Tong, what did she prepare for?

She walked steadily along with Xiao Yunqing's leisurely footsteps, asking Xiao Wanqing as if inadvertently: "Aunt Xiao, is there only a fireworks display here today? Why are there so many lanterns?"

While enjoying the rare scenery, Xiao Wanqing warmly responded to Lin Xian, saying: "I am also thinking about this issue. Today is not the Lantern Festival, how can such a lantern be decorated, the lights are like the sea." They finally came to Wen Tong and said yes to them Xiao Yunqing smiled and smiled lightly at the restaurant where Linshui lived: "We will know when we ask her later."

Lin Xian pursed her lips, tightened the hand she was holding with Xiao Wanqing, and nodded, "Okay."

Even with the relationship between rivals and lovers, Lin Xian had to compliment him sincerely. Wen Tong was really outstanding. As soon as they stepped on the second floor of the restaurant, they saw that in the semi-closed restaurant, every table was filled with people. Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing spent a lot of effort, but at a glance among the people, they saw Wen Tong, who stood out from the window and sat next to the window, looking sideways with his head looking far away.

The two approached Wen Tong, and Xiao Taoqing tapped the table gently, teasing Wen Tong: "What good scenery outside the window attracts you to be so serious?"

Wen Tong just turned around and sneered. Her eyes glanced at Xiao Wanqing and Lin Xian's smiling faces at random. The next second, her eyes moved down, and suddenly she fixed her hands in Xiao Xianqing and Lin Xian's hands, still in the pocket of Lin Xian.

Wen Tong shook his throat, and couldn't help but looked up at Lin Xian.

Lin Xian looked at her lightly and steadily, and greeted her generously, "Aunt Wen, good evening."

Wen Tong nodded and looked away.

Unconsciously, Xiao Yunqing naturally took Lin Xian and sat down opposite Wen Tong. Then, he released the hand held by Lin Xian and placed his hands on the table.

Wen Tong couldn't help but fell into Xiao Wan's slender, white and slender hands. A moment later, she narrowed her gaze, pulled a corner of her mouth to reveal a usual lazy smile, and casually joked: "Editor Xiao is really waiting."

Xiao Wanqing had a good temper: "It wouldn't be late, but she was attracted by the lanterns outside." She asked the question all the way: "Is there only a fireworks show? It seems very grand." Yu Guangzhong saw , Wen Tong put a band-aid on his index finger, Xiao Wanqing immediately cared: "What happened to your hand?"

Wen Tong gently rubbed his index finger and thought of the one that could not be sent out. Now, the lantern that has been stored in a dim box, and the words that have not been spoken for many years, the eyes are subtly dimmed. .

"It's okay, I accidentally scratched the staples with staples two days ago."

She turned on the power of the oven and hot pot, and answered Xiao Yunqing's doubts: "I came to know that there is a lantern festival today. It seems that it is an intangible cultural promotion activity in cooperation with the city's Ministry of Culture, taking advantage of the New Year. Let’s warm up first. If the effect is good, this year’s Lantern Festival will be held again on a large scale."

Xiao Wanqing heard that there was nothing to let go of before she responded: "No wonder." She turned her head to tease Lin Xiandao: "Envy is really eye-catching."

Lin Xian's eyes flickered and smiled to Wen Tong: "It's the blessing of Aunt Thorvin, thank you Aunt Wen."

Wen Tong tried the temperature of the oven, got up and flicked Lin Xian's forehead playfully, and said with a smile: "You're welcome. Let's go and see what to eat together. Let your aunt Xiao keep the table."

Lin Xian readily accepted.

After the ingredients were shipped back, Wen Tong and Xiao Wanqing tacitly turned the barbecue in the oven together, chatting a few times from time to time, Lin Xian listened silently, and occasionally only inserted a sentence or two, but his mouth was not idle. .

Xiao Wanqing, every wave of meat is cooked, the first thing to do is to naturally put it into Lin Xian's bowl, so that Lin Xian does not need to reach for the chopsticks into the oven.

Until the shrimp in the hot pot was taken out, Xiao Yunqing hung down the snow-white neck and carefully peeled a few shrimps with ten fingers into the bowl of Lin Xian. He said softly to Lin Xian: "Try to cook it too old." Tong finally couldn't help saying, half-truth and half-truth: "Don't you always think that peeling shrimp shells is troublesome, so have you always kept away from this kind of food that needs shelling?"

Xiao Wanqing hadn't spoken yet, Lin Xian looked sideways at Xiao Wanqing and smiled sweetly. She also took a shrimp out of the hot pot and said softly: "I'll help Aunt Xiao peel the shrimp afterwards. I'll be good at peeling shrimp." During the speech, she really peeled off quickly and well. Put a shrimp into Xiao Wanqing's bowl, and proudly said: "Look, its tail is still complete."

Xiao Wanqing's eyes looked down seriously, and there was a bright smile on his lips, teasing Lin Xian said: "It seems that the hands of the small heater are not only warm, but also coincidentally."

Lin Xian blinked a little shyly.

Wen Tongning looked at them, bit her lip, and murmured in half a joke: "Aunt Xiao, I also want to eat shrimp..."

Lin Xianfei smiled quickly and said Wen Tong: "Aunt Wen, I will help you peel it."

But in two or three seconds, a fresh shrimp fell into Wen Tong's bowl. "Aunt Wen, you eat."

Wen Tong's five fingers on the edge of the bowl gathered slightly, and laughed, lowering his eyes: "Thank you Lin Xiaoxian." She picked up the shrimp and put it in her tongue, chewing slowly.

Xu Shi was restless, so it was tasteless...

One meal, they have been eating from supper time to supper time. Near ten o'clock, the three talents stood out of the restaurant and started to enjoy the lanterns in the garden.

All the way down, Lin Xian knew that the lantern they saw at the door was only the tip of the iceberg. Before walking to the mountain stream lake, it is really like entering the sea of ​​lights and the world of light and shadow.

On both sides of the lake bank, there are tens of thousands of various kinds of colorful lanterns hanging in the night wind, which are more dazzling than the stars in the dark night...

Wen Tong, Xiao Wanqing, and Lin Xian walked side by side, lingering on to the vivid Chinese zodiac lanterns, exquisitely painted elegant palace lanterns, and the architectural lanterns that stood tall and represented the city's business cards.

While watching, Wen Tong was inadvertently stopped by the crowd, a little behind Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing, only to suddenly find out that Lin Xian didn't know when, and took Xiao Wanqing's hand again and put it in his bag , As they did when they came.

Intimate.

The evening wind blew past, and Wen Tong slowly put his hands into his pocket, suddenly felt that it was a little cold...

I don't know how long it has passed. While everyone was looking up at the 13-meter-high water light group in the middle of the lake, a pretty girl suddenly sounded in Lin Xian's ear: "Lin Xian! You are here!"

Wen Tong, Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing all turned around and looked at the sound source. They saw one tall and one short. Two white down jackets in the shape of lovers, under the light of the lights, beautiful young girls turned towards them. Hurriedly.

It is Shiman and Xia Zhijin.

Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing saw them, and their eyes were all bent. Lin Xian said hello: "Man, Sister Jin, what a coincidence. Are you looking at the lanterns or the fireworks?"

Shiman and Xia Zhijin smiled obediently at Xiao Wanqing and greeted in unison: "Aunt Xiao is good." Then, Shiman replied to Lin Xian: "No, it's just that my mom asked us to come out for dinner together. I found a lantern here. , So we parted ways with her after eating, and we went out to take a look."

Her eyes fell on Wen Tong, and she was about to politely ask what to call, when the New Year's countdown clock sounded. Among the crowd, the countdown began to coincide: "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, ..."

Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing smiled at each other, just about to count down with the crowd, the lake suddenly burst into a huge blast, the countdown stopped abruptly, everyone was shocked...

Shi Man was shocked by the sudden sound and subconsciously took a step back to hide in Xia Zhijin's arms. Although Xia Zhijin was also surprised, he still hugged Shi Manchu's delicate body quickly and quickly, his warm hands quickly covered Shi Manchu's small ears...

Xiao Yunqing was caught off guard and shook his body in shock. Lin Xian and Wen Tong walked towards Xiao Wanqing almost at the same time as the sound rang, both reached out and subconsciously wanted to hug Xiao Wanqing and cover her ears to appease her.

Everything is nothing but the flash of electric flint.

Wen Tong took a step toward Xiao Wanqing, and Lin Xian also took a step toward Xiao Wanqing. The next second, only Lin Xian, firmly covered Xiao Wanqing's ears.

A cluster of gorgeous fireworks leap from the water and bloom in the night sky...

Mei De, Wen Tong has a sour nose.

She saw that under the clusters of fireworks, Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing snuggled together. Lin Xian concealed Xiao Wanqing's ears behind her. Xiao Wanqing leaned on Lin Xian's arms and turned her head, her eyes were like water, her smile was like flowers, and her lips were talking to Lin Xian one by one.

After a moment, she turned around and said to herself, Qingrun melodiously: "Wen Tong, Happy New Year!"

In an instant, she looked at Xiao Wanqing's gentle and moving face, and felt aggrieved.

Obviously, she even stretched her hand faster than Lin Xian. Why, in the end, it was not her who could be touched...

Her long-lost hands fell, clenched, bit by bit. In the end, his eyes flashed, and a smile was forced back to Xiao Wanqing: "Happy New Year."

Because, at that moment, Xiao Wanqing, in the direction of Lin Xian, also took a step forward...

She raised her eyes through the hazy night and wet eyes, and looked at the tall young girl not far away. The girl, half embracing Xiao Wanqing, is a vague posture of possessing and declaring sovereignty, and also looked at her dullly.

As if there were dark waves surging...

After a while, Wen Tong turned around and quietly retreated from the noisy but cold wind.

She leaned on the tree trunk in the corner where there were few tourists, looked at the water surface with water ripples after circle, and lit a cigarette silently. The smoke burned little by little, but she was unconscious, not breathing.

Someone approached her with a low voice like a cello: "Can I borrow a fire?"

Wen Tong looked coldly, and saw a woman with a dark face holding a black hair, a delicate and restrained temperament, and her eyes stood quietly beside her.

Fireworks, blooming in the night sky behind her...
