It’s Colder Today

After saying that, Shi Yun heard laughter coming from the other side.

The hot pot restaurant had already put on new spring decorations. The waiter brought the dishes first, and Shi Yun noticed the Chinese red elements on their clothes. When I looked up, I found that Chinese knots and blessing characters had been decorated everywhere in the lobby.

"You are celebrating the New Year today..." Shi Yun originally wanted to say whether he wanted to go home to celebrate the New Year, but he always felt that the word "home" was not good, so he changed his mind temporarily, "How are you going to celebrate the New Year?"

"I'm going to go somewhere else." Wei Zongying moved all the meat dishes brought by the waiter to Shi Yun's convenient position.

Shi Yun was the first to think: "Travel?"

Wei Cong was silent for a few seconds: "Absolutely."

The waiter happened to come over with the bottom of the pot: "Attention, be careful, the bottom of the pot is coming."

The two of them were eating meat, but they were speechless for a while.

Until Shi Yun choked on the chili skin in the spicy pot and coughed for a long time, Wei Zongying handed her a water cup. The cup was not big to begin with, and there was only half a cup of water left in it. After Shi Yun drank it all, his throat still felt uncomfortable, but the water he poured out again was too hot.

Wei Cong should hand her his cup.

Shi Yun didn't pay attention and drank it all in one breath.

It got better after coughing twice more.

He refilled the glass with water, called to the passing waiter, and added a plate of fruit.

"What about you?" Wei Zong responded to the previous topic, "How are you going to spend the New Year?"

"Just try not to quarrel with my dad." Shi Yun shrugged, "If we quarrel on the first day, I will pack my things and go back to school on the first day."

When Wei Cong heard what she said, he felt that she and her father had such a familiar relationship. Wasn't it just that he and Wei Mingcheng were in the same boat?

It turns out that their family is not the only family to have troubled parent-child relationships. Suddenly, he felt more sympathetic to Shi Yun: "We are of the same mind, but my father treats me better. He gave me a big gift before the New Year."

An illegitimate daughter.

He has a younger sister.

As he said that, Shi Yun laughed at himself: "That's really incomparable."

The fruit plate was served until almost finished. It was all common fruits in winter.

The apples were not peeled, and even the oranges were not peeled.

Wei Zong stopped using his chopsticks earlier than Shi Yun. He wiped each finger carefully with a sterilized towel, and then peeled the oranges in the fruit plate: "If you and your uncle quarrel, the dormitory is too deserted, why don't you come and join me? "

"Aren't you going on a trip?" Shi Yun put the last piece of meat into the pot, muttered silently in his mind for more than ten seconds, and then picked it up.

"Take you with me." Wei Congying peeled the oranges and put them in a clean small dish, then placed the dish in front of her, "How much money do I need to take someone to travel?"

-

When we came out of the hot pot restaurant, the sky was still snowing.

Shi Yun reminded him to be careful when driving at night, and to send her a message when he got home. At the end of this ordinary reminder, she added something that was not usual: "Remember to eat dumplings tomorrow."

Shi Yun was still lying in bed on the 30th day of the New Year. Grandma started preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner early in the morning, and Shi Yun could not help much.

So she was ordered by her grandma to call her dad and ask him what time he would come for dinner today.

This task might as well be for Shi Yun to learn how to cook a Manchu-Han banquet now.

She procrastinated and refused to call. I was sitting on the sofa in the living room, eating sugar oranges. I didn’t even watch the TV when it was on. I kept my head down and scrolling through my phone.

Grandma asked Shi Yun several times if she had called. Seeing that she was careless, she was about to call herself when a familiar voice came from outside the door.

"Mom and Dad."

Shi Yun knew that her father was back.

Grandma answered in the living room.

The sugar orange in my mouth suddenly became not very sweet, even a bit icey. Shi Yun threw the peel into the trash can at his feet and stood up: "Grandma, I'm going upstairs."

As soon as grandma responded, she heard Shi Yun's words.

Seeing that the father and daughter still didn't want to see each other, the man with one foot already in the coffin could only sigh.

It would have been such a happy thing for a husband and wife to be harmonious and happy, but in the end, the son and granddaughter turned into their biggest enemies.

Shi Yun stayed in the bedroom and refused to go downstairs. Shi Xu, who rarely came back from going downstairs, also didn't want to see Shi Yun.

Both of them try their best to avoid spending time with each other. But on New Year's Eve, we can't help but sit at a table and eat.

Grandpa and grandma prepared red envelopes for Shi Yun. Shi Xu on the other side seemed to be a transparent person, sipping food and wine while watching the Spring Festival Gala on the TV.

At the dinner table, grandparents tried their best to find topics to talk about.

For example, Shi Yun's studies and Shi Yun's future plans.

Or maybe it's the recent development of my son's company...

When the conversation came to Shi Yun, Shi Xu didn't speak. When the conversation came to Shi Xu, Shi Yun didn't speak.

Shi Yun was immersed in eating the food and felt that the father next to him was drinking more and more. This was a danger signal.

Spring Festival Gala happens every year, but every year the boring skits play out the drama of family reunion.

However, not to mention that this year's sketch was boring, Shi Yun felt that it was a bit targeted at their family.

In the sketch that warned the audience to drive carefully, the character who was looking forward to the return of his family finally said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "For your family, drive carefully. For your parents and children, follow the traffic rules every time you travel..."
