Waiting for You in a City

The night was quiet and the street lights were dim.

The white car was parked beside the clean, unoccupied street, and it was rocking gently.

Full of car fragrance, soft petals.

氤氲 Xu Qin's nervous and hurried voice: "Will it be found ... what to do if it is seen?"

Song Yan's eyes are deep and dark, and she kisses her blushing cheeks, her shoulders like jade: "No one will be so late."

"But ... ah ..."

"……pain?"

"Ok."

"You are too nervous." He reached out and stroked. "Relax."

"... Woo ..."

She lifted her neck, pursed her breath, and squeezed in her seat before she dared to get up. She was twitched by him, seeming to be scared, but seemed comfortable.

She looked out of the window from time to time, frightened, ashamed, but irritated and taboo. People are becoming more sensitive, and the sense of crispness is magnified and thrown into the cloud again and again.

Her body was hot and her brain was not sober, and she was dizzy as the body wobbled. Finally tired and sleepy.

When sleeping, he only felt his ears breathing heavily, and the light and shadow outside the window were mottled.

She did not know how long she slept, feeling that he sorted out her clothes lightly.

The car started.

There should be street lights circulating, but his coat covered her eyes. She was unconscious and slept deeply.

When the car stopped, Song Yan wrapped her up and hugged her.

Xu Qin moved subconsciously and wanted to go by himself, but he whispered in her ear: "Sleep well. I will take you home."

She gave up her struggle and leaned softly into his arms. Only faintly felt the cold wind and clear winter night, his heartbeat was powerful and fresh.

Later, she was put on the bed and slept comfortably.

The sleep was extremely stable, and the sky was bright when I woke up. She was sleepy, stretched her legs and feet in the quilt, rolled and hugged Song Yan, and touched it, leaving the bed empty.

She opened her eyes and saw the sun shining through the rows of wooden windows, the breeze touching the gauze curtains, and the walls were light blue.

This……

She sat up and realized that she was on a large lilac round bed with a light gray carpet on the side of the bed and a white hanging basket.

This room ...

On the left wall is a whole beige wardrobe, on the right is a row of wooden windows, and the water-purple curtains are closed, only a thin layer of yarn is pulled, and the trees outside can be seen shaded.

The wind chimes swayed, ding ding dong dong.

Beside the window, the sun was shining on the beauty couch.

The light gray floor extends into the small hall, with wooden sofas embedded in the fabric and wooden coffee tables. The interior colors are mainly light blue, light purple and light gray, quiet and low-key, pleasing to the eye.

Xu Qin got out of bed, opened the wooden door and went to the living room,

Ivory wall, brown floor, crescent TV wall, built-in sofa, birch coffee table.

The north window is planted with trees.

The south side faces the courtyard, the door is open, and the sun is spread over the floor.

She was even more delighted that there was a central area behind the living room sofa.

A large rectangular wooden table surrounded six wooden chairs loosely and loosely, even with pillows. The table is specially designed to facilitate wiring.

There are several ground plugs under the table, so that the whole family can get together for office work. The entire wall behind is a bookcase from the roof to the floor, divided into countless square cells.

Even if there is a group of children in the future, the family's books can be included. There is a large soft sofa area beside the window, piled with pillows, Xu is letting people nest inside to study.

Xu Qin's breath was a little unstable.

Stepping over the threshold, the yard was planted with trees and grass, and there were trails of goose eggs. The courtyard has been renovated, and a square ring corridor connects several rooms, with milky white lights hanging from the corridor and wind chimes hanging.

On the east side are two small bedrooms separated, on the west side are the kitchen and dining room. The kitchen is light green, clean and elegant, the dining room is light apricot, the walls are light yellow, and a small bouquet of daisies is placed on the white dining table.

On the other side of the promenade leading to the gate, there is a big tree with thick branches, which seems to have grown for many years. She can't call her name.

She only recognized the side of the courtyard, near the bedroom, with loquat and a cherry tree.

The whole courtyard is wonderful.

She walked around the house and didn't find Song Yan, so she sat on the steps of the corridor and waited.

Obviously very happy, but somehow weeping inexplicably.

That year, she was still young, and she envied her uncle ’s quadrangle. The family lived happily and laughed every day.

She said: Song Yan, I really like your home.

He said: It is useless to say, dare to go to my account book.

She was quiet for a long time, and said: Then send me a courtyard house.

"I don't like everything in this world, and I don't want to go out to meet other people.

I want a courtyard house, and then you are locked inside. "

She sniffed her nose slightly and wiped tears from the corners of her eyes.

fool,

What she envyed was not her uncle's quadrangle, but her uncle's happy home.

The sound of the door opening and the sound of the box rolling on the ground came from the shadow wall.

Song Yan went to the promenade, dragged two boxes and paper bags, and went to the uncle's house to move things.

"How to sit there?"

Before his words fell, she crossed the courtyard and flew up to hug his waist:

"Song Yan ..."

All her emotions flowed into her heart in an instant, and her tears flowed out.

He was hit by her and took a step back, stood firm, touched her back, and teased her: "I don't like it, are you crying?"

She immediately shook her head and choked:

"Song Yan, I like to stay out all my life. I don't like everything outside. I can stay here all my life."

Song Yan was stunned, thinking that she would be very happy, but did not expect such a big reaction. She finished speaking eagerly, and said nothing more, and she burst into tears.

He touched her head with a big palm, what to comfort, she asked sadly: "Song Yan, how did you come here in the past ten years?"

He immediately squeezed his lips.

Ten years, how did you come here?

Overcome it.

She drunk that time and asked him if he had made any effort to get close to her.

What she did n’t know was,

In order to marry her and stay with her, he accumulated ten years and struggled for ten years.

Even if he was hit hard that time, he almost collapsed. But every day afterwards, he never settled into the status quo one day, and never thought about meeting with each other.

His plan was earlier.

Very early, although the house prices on Wufang Street were not high, it was also a huge sum for him. On his twentieth birthday, he did not know where he was, and he spent all the money left by his father clean and paid the down payment at once. It's quite smart to choose progressive repayments from low to high, thinking of wishful thinking, thinking of wage subsidies and rents enough to repay the mortgage. When the mortgage was slowly rising, he also got a promotion and a salary increase.

But he didn't want to fall in the middle of the sky.

He was severely tortured for half a month, and was later rescued. His charges changed from sitting down to doubt. He knew who rescued him. At that time, he was too arrogant, too hateful, too humiliating, and everyone fell into the soil and became unformed, and could not make a clear voice, and he had to curse the man who destroyed his native family.

He lost the opportunity to thoroughly cleanse, but he was not guilty enough to be innocent. The original team could not stay, and was thrown into the most promising team that people said, starting from scratch.

It was the darkest day in his life.

The dream is broken, the career is frustrated, the body is deserted, and the Siheyuan cannot be kept.

He was desperately trying to come up with achievements, wanted to make achievements, wanted to be promoted, stared at assessment bonuses, performance bonuses, merit bonuses ... stared at non-commissioned officers salary increase, promoted class leader salary increase, and rank leader salary increase.

But no matter how desperately there are vacancies, I cannot make ends meet. He grew so big. For the first time in his life, he asked his friends to borrow money. When the period expired, he could not lose his credit. He was forced to go to nowhere and seek private loans.

At that time, he didn't even know where Xu Qin was and whether he would return. But people are like losing their minds, they are gamblers, they are lunatics, they just want to do everything possible to keep the most important things.

In the dark days of the first few years, he can't remember clearly. He only remembers to wear military camouflage clothes and rubber-soled shoes when he returns home every month. The food and wear are all in the army. Debt paid.

But even if it was forced into life like that, every month, it seemed to have won a war, as if his home was a little bit real.

A little bit found the feeling of being in the world.

Even though Xu Qin's appearance may be blurred occasionally, she inexplicably feels that she will definitely come back.

Just like the fight on the skating rink, she and Meng Yanchen left, but she returned the next day.

Maybe she didn't find it herself, but as long as she realized that Song Yan was waiting for her.

She will go back to him.

However, after many days, she didn't come back.

Gradually, year by year, house prices began to grow wildly, and rents doubled over and over again. And he was promoted step by step, and the burden placed on his shoulders was lifted a little.

However, because he had borrowed high-interest private loans in the previous period, he only paid off his debts three years ago.

Fortunately, at that time, the rent had exceeded the amount of the loan several times, and finally I could spare the money, and I could also study the decoration, and let my uncle help design and build furniture.

He turned the book every day and researched that purple promotes sleep, blue makes people quiet, green suits the kitchen, and yellow promotes appetite.

The flowers and trees are also well understood. The scent should not be too strong to attract insects. It is best to put in all seasons during the flowering period.

Now, the house is clean and expires.

The furniture was helped by the uncle, and a small part of the money was spent on the decoration, and the remaining amount was only more than 300,000. Most of them bought the ring, and the rest mortgaged a car.

His current salary is more than enough for car loans.

She was unwilling to wait in line at the peak to wait for a rental, let alone squeeze the subway, and advance her happiness in advance.

As for why you must buy a white BMW.

Because that rainy night in August, he was the car he rescued.

And she forgot.

She thought he was going to save an ordinary citizen that day, thinking it was the first time he saw her car.

She forgot.

At the beginning, on the day of the fire on Wufang Street, when her car blocked the fire escape, he remembered her license plate.

The rainy night supported his belief that he had to push the car up after he had broken his teeth, but it was because he knew that the person in the car was her.

His woman, life memory is not very good.

However, it does not matter.

When you get old, tell her again, it will be a surprise.

When the white hair was pale, sitting in the yard and basking in the sun, she told her:

Wife, can you really remember that white BMW?

Give you a reminder, fire escape.

At that time she would laugh,

perhaps,

Will weep and cry like this?

...

Song Yan told Xu Qin that he had bought a house very early, concisely, saving the hard part of the first half, and ridiculed: "Buy early, and even earn a lot of rent."

Xu Qin was doing mental calculations. He took two boxes and walked inside: "What are you standing for, come and sort things."

She recovered and followed.

When he lifted the box across the threshold, he put the big paper bag next to the door and said, "I transported a part first, and slowly moved back the rest."

The two entered the room and packed together.

Xu Qin was a little ignorant at first, but the reaction was overwhelming. He always held something in his hands, but didn't know where to put it.

But she had a natural closeness to this family, and she quickly got up at random, touched the structure of the wardrobe, and quickly divided her coats, sweaters, underwear, pants, socks, and bags.

A lot of debris.

She ran to the central area to put books in a while, and then went to the living room to put a nail clipper, the charging cable was placed on the wooden table, and the plush toys were put into the hanging basket.

Song Yan didn't have so many things, she packed it up quickly and leaned on the wall to see her running around with excitement, like the hostess.

One room is sunny and in a good mood.

"Do you need help?"

"I'll do it myself." She enjoyed the fun of organizing herself.

Song Yan saw it and did not deprive it.

He went out and lay on the soft couch on the verandah with his hands behind his head and closed his eyes to bask in the sun.

He slept too late yesterday and consumed a lot of energy. Today, he gets up too early and people are a little sleepy.

The sun was warm at the moment, and the shadow of the loquat tree sprinkled on his face.

He heard the soft slippers slipping on the wooden floor, and she ran back and forth in and out. Listening to her shuttle through his hearing, he bent his lips lightly and slept slowly.

It didn't take long for her to finish her up, crawled over to him, and lay down with his arms around him.

He closed his eyes and asked, "Is it packed?"

"Uh." She leaned her face against his shoulder, his black sweater warmed by the sun.

The two snuggled quietly for a while, but she still remembered,

"Song Yan?"

"Ok?"

"Have you worked hard this decade?"

He slowly opened his eyes: "Fortunately."

She didn't believe it, but he didn't let him see her eyes and smiled abruptly: "Really?"

"Really." His tone didn't matter, "It's a bit harder to train, but it's the same for soldiers. When I joined the army, I swore hard work and hard work, and next to me. It's nothing to eat a little bit."

"Swear? We also have a vow to study medicine?" She was easily drawn away by him. "What is the pledge to be a soldier?" She shook his body. "I want to listen."

He was tickled by her stomach, could not help laughing, and frowned lightly: "I think about it." His lips twitched for a moment, "Well. How to say, serve the people ... not afraid of sacrifice, loyal to duty," At first it was unclear, and gradually it became more and more fluent, "Work hard and struggle hard; under no circumstances will you ever betray the motherland, nor the army."

Xu Qin was shocked.

Suddenly remembered that the next day after he was drunk, he went to her house to look for her, when he promised her that ...

He saw her eyes and knew she remembered.

He smiled lightly and said, "Yeah, never betray you."

She squeezed beside him, leaning him tighter, leaning her head against his neck, closing her eyes, not thinking about the predicament at that time, with warm liquid in her eyes moistening her eyelashes.

The sun shone on her eyes, and the world was red and warm.

She couldn't say anything, but even if he didn't, he would understand.

The two had not spoken for a long time, simply enjoying a quiet hug.

The breeze blows, occasionally squinting and looking. Above the ochre-colored eaves of the Siheyuan, a rectangular blue sky is high and pure.

Even if time stays at this moment forever, life is not lost.

After a while, she adjusted her posture, and accidentally saw a big bag under the couch, and she propped up her upper body: "There is still nothing confiscated."

"I'm coming." Song Yan got up,

"To be together." Xu Qin slipped over.

A skirt in the bag, Xu Qin picked it up, and a large wooden box was exposed under it.

Song Yan just found out when he was cleaning up at his uncle's house. It didn't matter at the time, but now it was shaken curiously.

There was something dangling inside.

"what is this?"

At the sight of Xu Qin, he would grab the box if he dropped the skirt;

Song Yan's hand was fast, and quickly took it away and hid behind him: "What?"

"Oh, it's a toy."

Song Yan glanced at her expression and came to a conclusion: "Lie." He pinched her waist with one hand and shook it behind him with the other, and the wood inside was banging.

Xu Qin pounced on him, scratching left and right, but his hands were longer: "Give me!"

She rubbed on him, he smiled: "Xu Qin, move again, I will react." A corner of the lips, "Want to come to the open air?"

open air? !

She glared and was tossed about by him last night, and now it still hurts, immediately hit him with anger and distance from him.

He turned to open the box, and she took another chance, but he quickly evaded.

The box was opened, and there were a bunch of wooden villains, all of them are the flames of Song Yan in his childhood, and they were lifelike. What's even better is that each facial expression has different movements, and all of them have appeared in real life.

Song Yan was startled, and there was a burst of ecstasy on his face, similar to the discovery of the secret treasure: "Is this all me?"

Xu Qin blushed, climbed to the soft couch and knelt: "Ah. Do you like it?"

"Nonsense." He sat cross-legged on the couch and poured out the puppets, looking at them one by one. "Lying trough, it's too similar." His expression was as fresh as the boy at the time. … This action ... Lao Tzu still had this hairstyle? !! ...... This dress was still thrown by his uncle's house! ... "

Each is a memory, with the fresh temperature of high school.

He put it down, watched it for a long time, and finally remembered to question,

"Fuck, why didn't you give it to me early?"

"It wasn't for you."

"Yeah, who don't give me away?"

"I keep it myself." Xu Qin said, taking a bunch of puppets to his legs.

Song Yan paused, remembering something, quiet for a second, and looked up at her: "When did it engrave?"

"Foreign." Xu Qin lowered his head without looking at him. "Because ... I don't know what you are like. I just remember what he was like in high school."

Song Yan stroked Xiaomu's face and asked, "Xu Qin?"

"Ok?"

"How have you been in this decade?"

After thinking for two seconds, she came to the conclusion: "Reading, working. Then, no more."

He didn't make a sound and looked down at the puppets in the box until he saw one of them wearing a basketball uniform with a hairstyle with Beckham's famous Moses head.

He stopped.

Moxigan stayed in his life for a year, but that was the third day.

He just changed school when he was in high school.

Only the evening study before the semester starts.

He looked up at her and said, "The day I bet you on the road, didn't you say that you don't know me?"

She pursed her lips for a moment and smiled, "I lied."

Song Yan's dark eyes stared at her for a long while, and she tweeted twice: "OK. Lie, just lie."

She grinned and fell into his arms.

For no reason, she confessed:

"Song Yan, I only loved you one. Only you."

When they said this, the winter sun enveloped them.

In the courtyard, there is a blue sky.

The sun shines on the cherry trees, and spring is brewing in the unseen places.

Several sparrows flew over and landed on the pomegranate tree, and one fell on the grass to peck mud.

There is a dry and fresh smell of winter in the air, and a warm and fresh fragrance of spring.

And many years ago, it was a hot summer.

That night, Xu Qin, who had just been isolated in the dormitory by his roommates, was helpless and went to the classroom cautiously with his schoolbag. Everyone is an old friend of the junior high school, they all know and get together to play.

Only her newcomer, no one ignored her.

In the evening self-study, the teacher asked people to go on stage one by one to introduce themselves and answer questions.

The classroom is lively like a festival.

She was sitting in the seat, holding her hand tightly, her expression was unremarkable, and her heart was not flat: what questions would you ask and how to answer it later, and remember to speak louder.

Suddenly, the bell rang after school.

She was extremely nervous: when she came to power, she would speak faster and not delay everyone's time.

Waiting for the teacher to call

The teacher said, "I have finished introducing myself, then I will finish the class ..."

She suddenly lost her mind, sitting in the same place, wanting to raise her hand and fearing to laugh, her heart fell all the way, and comforted herself, anyway, I did not want to introduce myself. But no matter how I lied, my eyes were sore.

However, a lazy voice came from the back row of the classroom: "Old Lu, that little guy hasn't introduced it yet!"

She turned back, blocked by the figure, and she only saw his upper face, black and clean eyes, and the arrogantly upright Moses dry head. Several clusters in front fell down and scattered on the forehead.

The young boy's thin arms were raised high, but his index finger was lazily hanging and pointed at her.

She walked out under the watch of her classmates and stood on the stage. The surface was indifferent and she didn't care. In fact, she was terribly nervous, scared and embarrassed.

She said, "My name is Meng Qin."

Teacher: "Everyone asks questions."

No one asked her.

The classroom was quiet and everyone looked at her, but everyone was expressionless and uninterested.

Her face burned spicy, neither was she left, nor was she left.

She stood in a classroom full of classmates, like standing on an empty field,

But the young man ’s voice came again: "Which Meng and Qin?"

The person who asked the question seemed to want to remember her name clearly.

She said: "Zi Meng Meng, water heart Qin."

"It's so good," the boy said.

She saw him laughing, hair shattered, and there were reflections of the classroom fluorescent lamps in his eyes, shining like a lake where the sun jumped.

She warmed her like a fire.

Perhaps, at that moment, he was different for her.

Otherwise, she will not tell the parents after he bets on his way.

Otherwise, she would n’t be so bad, he tried him again and again, verified him, provoked him, made him angry, but was calm and peaceful in his response again and again.

Perhaps, either want to seek asylum, or love.

Originally, she was just a very ordinary girl, perhaps a little worse, selfish, cowardly, arrogant, arrogant and arrogant, but with extravagant hope, waiting for someone to walk through thousands of mountains and rivers to love her.

Knocked on her gate and said: Can I come in?

She opened the door for him and said: You shall not be allowed to leave after that.

He said: OK.

Then they will be together forever.

What a simple truth.

But at that time she didn't understand, drove him away, and ran away without saying anything about her city for ten years.

But found out every day,

The city in her heart could never be opened again.

This level is ten years.

Just waiting for the man who had traveled a long distance, he followed again regardless of the wind and sand.

My city is waiting for you.

If you don't come, I will always be alone.

Fortunately, you have come through the mists and raging sands.

Let everything settle.
