If The Moon Won’t Hold You - Chapter 17
After exiting the door of Xin’s house, a biting cold wind blew in, Cen Ning trembled, and her thoughts calmed down.
The two walked one after the other on the way home, and Cen Ning slightly raised her head to see the tall and upright back in front of her. She remembered the scene just now, remembered him holding her eyes and taking her out of the room. Appearance, began to be embarrassed again at a loss.
But while embarrassing, she would wonder curiously, did he… have seen it. As soon as this idea came out, Cen Ning pressed it down hard, but the impact was too great, the less she thought about it, the more likely she was to fall into it.
Oh, why don’t you think that there are some of these, he is not Tang Zheng’s group of unscrupulous people, he would not watch it, he was not in the room just now, was he!
Yes, that’s it!
“What do you think.” Suddenly, a soft voice came from words and deeds.
Cen Ning hurriedly shook her head: “No! I didn’t think about anything!”
What is meant to cover up?
This is.
He took a breath of words and deeds, and dragged Tang Zheng’s gang out in his heart, Ling Chi again: “I didn’t think of anything that could be so distracted, where did you see the road?”
Cen Ning looked around, only to realize that she had reached the corner, and she rushed forward stupidly, “Ah… I’m sorry.”
Cen Ning hurriedly turned around and walked home. She walked quickly, and the little figure disappeared in an instant, as if she was avoiding something.
Words and deeds: “…”
On the night of New Year’s Eve, Zhang Ziyi invited Cen Ning out to set off fireworks. They said they were fireworks, but they were actually small cold fireworks such as star sticks and fairy sticks.
It was snowing this night, and the clearing was wrapped in silver, as if the whole world was white, and the snowflakes drifted down slowly, to the tops of the trees, to the clothes, to the hair…it should have been. The cold night, but because of a destined lively festival, it is not so scary.
The night is dotted, the open space is full of laughter, and the stars are waving fairy sticks.
“Ningning, come here! My fire is out! Help me light this one!” The **** the steps shouted.
Cen Ning’s eyebrows were slightly bent, and he ran over with the fairy stick that was still flashing, letting Zhang Ziyi borrow the fire.
“Hey, Zhang Ziyi!”
The two girls who were lighting up heard the reputation, only to see a boy in the courtyard who was one year younger than them threw a snowball over, Zhang Ziyi couldn’t dodge, and his forehead was smashed.
“Hahahahahaha—” The boys over there let out a burst of laughter, words and deeds were also there, he saw Zhang Zi squatting down and squeezing a snowball, and he quickly picked up a ready to attack.
“Damn, smashing grandma, you are all dead, right?” Zhang Ziyi was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so he threw two of them hard.
“Just die, you are here, what can you do!”
“Come here for you!”
“No, no…”
After coming and going, somehow they “played” a snowball. Xue Xiaoxiao, who was playing fireworks beside him, was accidentally injured by Zhang Ziyi, and he angrily fell into the ranks of people.
Cen Ning was a little dazed, but she had been assigned to “Zhang Ziyi” for a long time, so everyone attacked Zhang Ziyi at the same time.
Zhang Ziyi: “Ningning! Quick! Make snowballs! See if I don’t kill them!”
Cen Ning: “No, Zi Yi…”
“Ah! Your words and deeds! You wait for me! Cen Ning! Ball!”
Cen Ning: “Huh? Huh!”
…
When the words and deeds and Tang Zheng were passing by, they were attracted by a group of “little boys” on the clearing. Xin Zechuan put his arms around his chest and said amusedly: “Aren’t these little ghosts cold?”
Tang Zheng: “Eh, it’s fun! I haven’t hit a snowball in a long time, and I…”
Words and deeds: “You can smash someone into a bleeding hole.”
Tang Zheng: “…”
Xin Zechuan laughed loudly: “That’s right, use you to train that power? At night, the threshold of your house can be broken by the parents of these little ghosts, and Yanjia takes the lead.” Words and deeds.
Tang Zheng chuckled, “It’s not necessary to take the lead. I hurt that little girl and told me that brother can do it on the spot.”
Looking at him not indifferently, Tang Zheng coughed lightly, turned his eyes away, and looked “interestedly” at several teenagers and girls running around.
“Ah, Miss Zhang is really Miss Zhang, that’s right.”
“Zhang Ziyi, are you a pig! Where do you smash it? Smash it in the face! Ouch, what look in your eyes…”
“Catch more snow, so how about the smaller one to feed the chicken?”
“Don’t you have enough rice? You can’t throw it! Throw it low to throw it far!”
While Tang Zheng watched and pretended to be an awesome guide, Zhang Ziyi was annoyed, so he grabbed one and threw it on Tang Zheng’s face, “You’re annoying you!”
“Ouch-“
Tang Zheng scolded and shook the snow, his words and deeds fell on Cen Ning not far away, with a rare smile in his eyes.
At the place where she saw her, she would collect snow on the ground for a while, and then throw a snowball on the opposite side. She wears gloves, so it is a bit cumbersome to deal with Qixue, but her expression is very serious, and occasionally there is a smile on her face.
It was a pure, childish smile.
Think about it carefully, this seems to be the first time he has seen her get off like this, she has always been too well-behaved and well-behaved.
“Cen Ning!” Not far away, Yao Yao moved a large piece of snow and walked towards her.
Cen Ning was taken aback and ran away quickly.
But Yao said by words and deeds was a 14-five-year-old boy, with tall legs and long legs, and he caught up with him in a few steps.
Seeing that Cen Ning was about to be caught, the person in front of him suddenly threw himself on the ground with an exclamation.
“Eh?”
The snow is thin and thick, and the piece that Cen Ning just ran on is very thin, and there is a layer of ice on the surface, which is very slippery.
Cen Ning wears a lot, but it hurts to fall on this hard ground.
“Aren’t you stupid?” Yao laughed with words and deeds, “you can’t run away!”
Cen Ning got up with difficulty, but as soon as he got up and turned his head, a pile of snow fell from his head. Originally it was nothing. These **** just played like this, but now because of the angle problem, most of this snow slipped into her neckline!
Cen Ning shivered from the cold.
Yao Yao saw this and laughed again, squatted down and continued to collect snowballs. After collecting a round one, he wanted to raise his hand and throw it onto Cen Ning who was sitting on the ground.
But suddenly, a hand clasped his wrist from the side and pushed hard.
In an instant, Na Xue smashed his face severely.
“Hmm—” Yaolian’s words and deeds were hurt by his own snow, and the swear words were about to break out.
But when he turned his head stiffly, he looked at him seriously, his eyes colder than ice and snow.
The words and deeds Yao immediately persuaded: “Brother…”
“I don’t know how to measure.” After the words and deeds, one hand grabbed Cen Ning’s shoulder and lifted her up.
Words and deeds Yao hurriedly said: “I, we are playing, she just smashed me like this! She…”
“Does it hurt?”
“…”
Yan De Yao shut his mouth, because he found that his words and deeds simply ignored him. He just lowered his eyes slightly to look at Cen Ning. Although his eyes were as cold as ever, his voice was softer.
“No, it’s okay.” Cen Ning calmly grabbed his clothes outside. The pain was not very painful, but it was cold!
He twisted his eyebrows: “Go back quickly and take off your clothes.”
Cen Ning was taken aback: “Huh?”
“Want to freeze to death?”
Only then did Cen Ning know that he saw that Xue thrown into her neckline, she shook her head hurriedly, “I, I’ll go back and change it right away.”
After finishing speaking, stepping carefully on the snow, walking out step by step.
The words and deeds withdrawn from her back, and she glanced sideways at her words and deeds.
Words and deeds: “…I went to play.”
After taking a step, he was pulled back by the collar by words and deeds, “Eh…Brother?!”
Words and deeds: “Don’t bully people outside.”
“I didn’t bully anyone! I…” Yan and deeds Yao’s neck was stuck in his clothes, and after coughing twice, he couldn’t let go of his words and deeds, so he had to beg for mercy, “Well, good! I won’t move her anymore.”
The words and deeds sneered.
“Okay, let’s go quickly.” Xin Zechuan walked over to pull away Yan De Yao, Yan De Yao gave him a grateful look, and immediately ran away.
“I said, this kid is really at odds with Cen Ning, and he doesn’t bully her less at home, right?”
“Not so much.” After he finished his words and deeds, he groaned, and said again, “I don’t know.”
Xin Zechuan smiled: “Of course you don’t know, you haven’t stayed at home all these years.”
Silence of words and deeds.
Xin Zechuan added: “But compared to the younger brother Xing Yao, you are much more friendly to Cen.”
“Yes.”
“Of course, you are partial to Cen Ning who can’t tell?” Xin Zechuan put a hand on his shoulder: “But the little girl’s house is really different from these stinky boys, so you have to be pampered.”
What Xin Zechuan said was justified and well-founded, but he carefully recalled what he said and did. He was partial?
“By the way, the **** thing about Tang Zheng last time… ahem, it’s okay, right?”
With his words and deeds back his thoughts, he glanced at Tang Zheng who was fighting Zhang Ziyi fiercely: “What else can I say.”
Xin Zechuan touched his chin, also feeling that this matter was embarrassing and tricky.
Indeed, in the case of saying nothing is right, it is better to say nothing.
**
New Year’s Eve passed and the new year was ushered in.
For the first time, Cen Ning didn’t want the new year to come, because it meant leaving with words and deeds.
But no matter how much she doesn’t think about it, time will pass.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Yanjia has another group of guests. At that time, Cenning was on the balcony of the small building, and when she looked down, she saw her words and deeds going out to welcome people in person.
Those people are probably in their 50s or 60s, but like Yan Guofeng, they are tall and upright and look very energetic.
She thought, probably these people were all soldiers.
Everything was fine at first, but more than half an hour later, I suddenly saw the few people coming out, and one of them was talking anxiously, but then the other people got into the car again.
Cen Ning was a little puzzled, logically, she should stay for dinner, why did she leave like this?
Going downstairs with this doubt, Cen Ning walked through the corridor to the downstairs of the villa, but as soon as she walked in, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.
Words and deeds actually kneeled in the living room.
what happened?
Cen Ning looked at the people around him in a panic, only to see Yan Su and Xu Wanying were silent on the side, their expressions were not pretty. Aunt Chen hid beside the kitchen, not daring to get out of the air.
Guofeng was obviously very angry, and his serious face was angry and shocked, as if his words and deeds did something unforgivable.
Cen Ning stepped on the gate rail, not knowing whether to enter or exit.
At this moment, Yan Guofeng took a long stick that he didn’t know where to take off, and immediately hit the back of his words and deeds.
There was a dull sound, accompanied by Cen Ning’s horrified voice: “Words and deeds!”
The sudden voice made Zhizhi look sideways, his eyes deepened, and then he turned his head in silence.
The words and deeds that Cen Ning has seen have been kept on high places and held in the palm of their hands.
Every elder in the family is proud of him. When Yan Guofeng mentioned that he had such a grandson, his face was full of spring breeze. Cen Ning really didn’t know, what could make Yan Guofeng beat his adult grandson like this.
“Grandpa, what are you doing!” Cen Ning’s brain buzzed, and she rushed forward regardless of what she said. She got stuck in front of her words and deeds, opening her hands, subconsciously protecting her actions.
He paused for words and deeds, and raised his eyes to look at the little girl who suddenly rushed in front of him.
Yan Guofeng gritted his teeth: “Ningning, let go, I will teach this stinky boy a lesson!”
Cen Ning: “Grandpa, don’t hit anyone no matter what…”
“It’s pretty light! I just want to ask him if he puts me in his eyes!”
Cen Ning didn’t know what was going on, so he turned his head anxiously to see what he said and did. Her words and deeds collided with her sight, and her expression was awe-inspiring to pull her away.
“Stand up.”
Cen Ning: “But…”
“obedient.”
“…”
Seeing this, Xu Wanying also said: “Dad, you are so angry too. If you have something to say, you are good at it. It’s not good to play so much—”
“Don’t talk! Yeah, he has grown up, so he decides everything by himself, and he doesn’t even say anything about joining the special forces!” Yan Guofeng said solemnly, “If it weren’t for you, Uncle Jiang mentioned today, you Are you planning to keep hiding from me!”
Words and deeds: “No.”
“Then you are deliberately procrastinating! Wait until there is nothing to save, and then tell me if it is!”
“Yes.”
“Heh! You are frank, in words and deeds, I did not let you enter the military academy for the military academy!”
“What is it for? It’s not for defending the family and the country, or for being born to death, for what.” The eyes of words and deeds were slightly narrowed, and the corners of the lips were very cruel. Location?”
“you!”
“Provide the country with your body, nothing can’t be done.” His words and deeds pursed his lips, and said quietly, “You told me that when I was young. Since you have instilled this kind of thinking in me since I was young, don’t stop me now. “
…
After his words and deeds, Yan Guofeng was called into the study alone by Yan Guofeng.
The living room was quiet, Yan Su sat on the sofa, and Xu Wanying comforted her comfortably.
“The line has grown up, he has his own ideas, we don’t stop him.”
“You didn’t give birth to your son. Of course you don’t care about his life or death!”
“Yan Su, what do you mean by this!” Xu Wanying was taken aback, her face pale, “Could it be that you think I just want him to die?”
“I…”
“I asked myself to have a clear conscience about Xingzhi since I married into Yanjia. You, you think of me that way!”
“Wanying—”
Xu Wanying’s eyes were red, and she ran upstairs angrily. Yan Su looked a little embarrassed, presumably what he said just now was unscrupulous. After sitting on the sofa for a meeting, he went upstairs to ask Xu Wanying to apologize.
“Aunt Chen.” Cen Ning looked at the empty living room and called out softly.
Aunt Chen sighed, and answered: “Ningning, you go back first, I’ll watch.”
Cen Ning didn’t move: “Aunt Chen, why are everyone so angry, my brother went to… the special forces, what about that? What is going to die?”
“Hey, I don’t know much, but I know that special forces are no better than ordinary troops. They are fascinating and dangerous, and the tasks they perform are also very dangerous. The old man did it himself when he was young, so he knows that some things can’t be controlled.” He shook his head and said, “In fact, the special forces are of course honorable. They can only go to the best soldiers. They just do it…however, it is also the eldest grandson. How much anticipation he was given, how could his family want him to work so hard? , And joking about fate.”
Cen Ning was a little flustered: “But since he is already like this, does it mean that he can’t get anything back.”
“He has always had his own opinion. With his temperament, he won’t look back.”
Cen Ning didn’t speak. She thought of his sweating sweat on the training ground, and remembered his rigorous attitude when flipping through those military books… His eyes were determined and determined.
Yes, he is the kind of person who turns around easily.
If it is, he is not doing it.
The soundproofing effect of the study is so good that Cen Ning can hear nothing when she is outside the living room. She was anxious to know something in her heart, and she was also worried that Yan Guofeng would be ruthless. So after thinking about it, pretending to go back to the small building, in fact, after going out, he sneaked to the wall outside the study. Fortunately, the windows of the study were not closed tightly.
In the study, stand and sit.
“Do you have to choose this path?”
“I’m sure.”
“You can learn a lot in military academy! Your path in the future is clear. I don’t agree with you being so adventurous!”
“This is not adventure, it’s experience.” His words and deeds looked down, but the sharpness was unconcealed, “That’s what I want.”
“Do whatever you want! You don’t see who you are! I don’t want you to take risks, you are not allowed to go.”
“Grandpa!” said in a deep voice, “I have received your cultivation training since I was a child, not just to be a spoiler, when you can not decide and control my life, I know exactly what I want to do.”
“I control, how do I control you!”
“Are you not giving me enough orders? What do you do in the future, which school to go to, which university to enter, what army to enter, and even who I will marry in the future? Are there not enough things you have arranged for me.”
The cold wind is bleak, and standing outdoors without a jacket can make people feel cold to the bones this season.
Cen Ning outside the window hugged her arm, and was startled when she heard “Who to marry?”
Yan Guofeng: “What are you talking about? I’m not doing anything for your own good. Who do you marry… What is wrong with Ningning’s child? The soldiers should keep their promises. This is my promise to the Cen family. !”
“You also know that it is your promise, so why should I recite your promise?” The words and deeds were extremely cold, and the words spoken were very rude, “I don’t need to think about the things I don’t like. I.”
…
There is no stable road in the world, and people will always encounter unexpected accidents when they walk.
For Yanjia, the choice between words and deeds is an accident. In terms of words and deeds, Cen Ning who was eavesdropping outside the window was an accident. For Cen Ning, it was the biggest accident in her life that she walked into Yanjia at the age of thirteen and met her words and deeds.
That year, it was very windy and snowy.
In later years, when Cen Ning recalled it, she remembered not only the “unwilling” sound, but also the temperature that day, the flying snow that day, and the sudden unfamiliar pain after her heart was torn open that day. …
The author has something to say: Sao talks cool for a while, chasing his wife in the crematorium.
“A few years later, a small theater”
Words and deeds: What I’m talking about is not willing to refer to the military road planned by Grandpa, not you…
Cen Ning: I don’t listen, I don’t listen!
