It’s Colder Today - Chapter 47

Just now Wei Zongying and Jiang Xuyang went to check out, and when they came back, they saw Shi Yun standing at the door of the box without going in.

Wei Congying became childish and walked over quietly. She was obviously frightened by herself, and he succeeded. When walking past, the people in the box didn’t speak any more, and they didn’t know what she was eavesdropping on.

In the private room, Liang Mengyi was sitting on the seat with a cigarette in her mouth, her arms folded in front of her chest, and her brows were furrowed. That sophisticated smoking position can infuriate her mother.

Jiang Xuyang didn’t see Chu Yue, but looked around, saw Shi Yun picked up Chu Yue’s bag and guessed why.

Wei Cong shouldn’t understand, he didn’t sit down, but stood behind the chair with his hands on the back of the chair to block the way. Seeing Shi Yun taking a bag, she asked her why she was going.

Shi Yun didn’t tell him about things that were too private.

When he asked again, Jiang Xuyang distracted him and threw the cigarette towards Shao Yuan on the table to Wei Zongying.

He didn’t refuse, and caught the thrown cigarette with both hands, biting the filter tip and asking them for a lighter.

When Shi Yun stepped out of the box door, the sound of a lighter being pressed was heard.

Chu Yue was still waiting for rescue in the toilet, Shi Yun stuffed the bag through the crack of the door below and gave it to Chu Yue, then went outside the toilet to wait for her.

The walls of the toilet always make people feel unclean. Shi Yun stood in front of the paper towel one yuan vending machine, looked at the white floor tiles, and thought of the conversation he heard just outside the box.

Wei Congying, did he really give Lin Fang his watch?

Before she could figure it out, her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of flushing water in the toilet.

After a while, Chu Yue came out and kicked his legs twice against the air, probably because he was numb from squatting.

Seeing Shi Yun’s thoughtful look, she just wanted to scare her, but saw that Shi Yun had stopped thinking and was looking at her.

Chu Yue went to the sink to wash his hands, squeezed on the hand sanitizer, and looked at the person printed in the mirror: “What are you thinking?”

Shi Yun shook his head, smiled at her, and dismissed the matter: “It’s okay. Are you ready? Let’s go then.”

After Chu Yue took out two pieces of paper and wiped his hands clean, he took Shi Yun’s arm: “How are you doing?”

Still the same, not so good. But maybe it’s because after so much it can’t be worse.

Seeing that Shi Yun hesitated to speak, as a person who knew most of her and He Yun’s experience, Chu Yue comforted her: “It’s okay, maybe after this trip, the relationship will heat up. Traveling can easily enhance the relationship.”

Shi Yun disagreed, and poured cold water on her: “The last time I traveled with him to Xunchuan, we broke up when we came back.”

One sentence blocked the rest of what Chu Yue wanted to say.

Avoiding and forgetting pain is often more difficult than immersing in pain.

Shi Yun knew that Chu Yue had no malicious intentions, but some pain had become a long-lasting wound on her body.

When they returned to the box, they hadn’t finished a cigarette yet, and the voice inside was quite loud, but it was so noisy that they couldn’t hear clearly.

The smell of smoke mixed in the box was not pleasant at all.

Shi Yun returned to his seat and didn’t move his chopsticks again. Looking at his hand holding the cigarette, Shi Yun’s eyes fell on his watch.

She didn’t know much about luxury watches like watches. Looking at the logo on the dial, Shi Yun memorized those English letters, and when she was about to check it with her mobile phone, the person next to her spoke.

Wei Congying had run out of the cigarette in his hand, and found that Shi Yun next to him had been staring at him.

He felt a little guilty: “You haven’t started to take care of it yet.”

That’s why he smoked one.

Shi Yun withdrew his gaze, took a sip of tea from the teacup in hand. Take your eyes away from his wrist: “I don’t care, the bare commander is boring.”

Wei Congying extinguished the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray, and the red dot of the cigarette **** hit the water, making a sizzling sound. It was like saying something in a fit of anger, he put his hand on the back of her neck: “You look down on me.”

Shi Yun didn’t answer, the people at the table who had finished smoking picked up their cigarette cases and mobile phones and got up.

“It’s all done, shall we go then?”

After lunch, Wei Zongying changed to drive, and Shi Yun put away all the snacks on the co-pilot. After disposing of the **** generated in the morning, I got into the car and put on my seat belt.

When it was finished, Wei Zong should start the car, and Shi Yun realized that Lin Fang was not there: “Where is Lin Fang?”

Wei Congying followed the car in front: “Tell him to ride in Jiang Xuyang’s car, five people can sit easily.”

After driving for a long time in the afternoon, they went to the service area to rest for a while, and Shi Yun sat in the co-pilot drowsy.

The few of them went to smoke to relax, and Shi Yun also walked on the ground for a while, and the sleepiness gradually subsided.

Jiang Xuyang stopped smoking, so Chu Yue went to buy him coffee. Shi Yun went with her, and bought some sliced ​​fruit platters by the way.

When she and Chu Yue came back, they had finished smoking.

Shi Yun was holding a fruit platter, so it was difficult to open the door. Wei Congying leaned over, supported the co-pilot’s seat with his hand, and helped her open the car door from the inside.

Putting two cups of coffee in the cup slot, Shi Yun removed the lid of the fruit platter and handed him the fork: “Why didn’t you ask Lin Fang to come over and exchange it with you?”

Wei Congying ate a mouthful of watermelon: “We’ll arrive in Antang in an hour and a half, forget it.”

Shi Yun couldn’t help either: “Drink more coffee.”

Wei Congying smiled, didn’t touch the fruit anymore, took two sips of coffee, and drove the car out of the parking space: “Okay.”

They arrived at Antang around four o’clock.

After checking in at the hotel where we settled down, the rooms are all on the same floor, and it will be half an hour before the waiter brings the luggage over.

They formed a group, and at the end they would notify the group of something they had to do, such as when to leave and where to eat at noon.

There are so many people, one thing is not good, that is, there is no way to unify opinions, and there is no way to take care of everyone’s ideas.

The few drivers were too tired to move at night, so they said they would call the hotel’s meal delivery service for dinner.

Shi Yun opened the suitcase and rummaged through it to find mosquito repellent products. Some people on the Internet said that the old streets in the nearby ancient town had a beautiful night view and a lot of snacks.

She is going to go for a walk.

Wei Congying finished smoking on the balcony, and when he came out, he saw her wearing a mosquito repellent bracelet, picked up the mineral water on the table, and unscrewed the bottle cap to relieve the numb mouth after smoking: “Aren’t you tired?”

“On the Internet, there are many people selling handicrafts in the old street. I want to go and have a look.” After Shi Yun finished speaking, he closed his eyes and held his breath, and sprayed his whole body with mosquito repellent.

Before going out, she checked the contents of the bag again, and the mobile phone and wallet were all in it.

Turning around, Wei Cong was waiting for her at the door with his arms akimbo, but he didn’t say anything to urge her. He just stood there and waited for her to finish packing, but he also checked the bag that she took out.

In the end, he smiled and watched her go out while flipping through her bag.

Waited patiently.

Seeing that she was about to go out, she suddenly stood at the door: “Do you want mosquito repellent potion and mosquito repellent bracelet?”

Wei Congying reached out and took the bag in her hand, and he carried it decently. It was still the authentic way of carrying a homeless bag: “Coincidentally, I have type A blood and I don’t attract mosquito bites.”

For a top-level delicacy in the eyes of mosquitoes, Shi Yun, who is very attracted to mosquito bites and is especially prone to scars, is jealous of Versailles like him.

The ancient town is quite close to the hotel, and it will be a bit far to walk, but it is estimated that there are no parking spaces near the ancient town, so the two finally decided to walk. Although they formed a group, Shi Yun asked Chu Yue alone if he wanted to go shopping together.

She said she was tired and didn’t want to move.

Shi Yun didn’t say much.

After coming out of the hotel, Shi Yun entered the location of the ancient town on the mobile phone, and then turned on the mobile phone navigation. Wei Congying watched her follow the cursor around in a circle, then shook it left and right, and finally confirmed the location.

As a result, Wei Cong should speak before her: “Go to the right.”

He said exactly what the navigator said.

Shi Yun was suspicious: “How do you know?”

Wei Congying raised his eyebrows, his expression was a little weak: “Do you admire people who have maps in their minds?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yun saw the road sign behind his head.

Tourist spots like Guzhen Old Street must have been marked by street signs early in the morning, but he just saw the street signs earlier than Shi Yun.

After failing to be handsome, Wei Congying raised his hand and put his arm on her shoulder: “Let’s go, I won’t lose it.”

It’s still summer vacation, the peak tourist season.

Indeed, there is no need for navigation, just follow the crowd and you will be there.

This kind of old street in an ancient town is actually not much different from the old street in the capital. There are also local cultural and creative souvenir shops and local specialty snacks, and there is nothing to do in the rest.

Shi Yun ate the snacks along the way, Wei Congying watched as she took out wet wipes, tissues, spray and hair ties from the bag she was carrying…

He looked in his eye bag, and there were cosmetics.

No wonder such a small bag is so heavy to carry, I stuffed Shi Yun’s remaining wet wipes back into the bag, and teased her: “Why didn’t you carry the suitcase?”

“Then you give it back to me, and I will carry it myself.”

Shi Yun made a gesture to take it away, but he didn’t give it to him. He zipped up the bag and adjusted the shoulder straps. The old street is not long, and it took more than half an hour to finish shopping.

It didn’t know when the sky darkened, and they found a serious place to have dinner in the outer circle of the old street.

As soon as you enter the store, you can smell the spicy smell floating in the air. Both menus are greasy.

After ordering, Wei Cong should take her bag off her body, unzip the zipper and take out the cigarette case and lighter from her bag: “Whatever? I’ll go out for a cigarette.”

Shi Yun wiped the table with a wet towel and ignored him. After wiping the table, Shi Yun looked around and didn’t see the trash can. When he looked up, he could be seen through the glass door. He took a cigarette out of the cigarette case, and the cigarette **** knocked on the cigarette case. Blocking the wind with one hand, a small flame burst out.

After smoking a cigarette for more than five minutes, he was not alone when he came back. There is also a young couple, the man is the same as Wei Congying before, with a bag on his back.

There are no more vacancies in the store, and they want to share a table together.

Near tourist attractions, restaurants are scarce, and table sharing is normal.

Shi Yun didn’t refuse, and Wei Zongying didn’t care either.

Before serving the food, they had a brief chat. The woman said that she was from Kacheng, had been here for five days, and would fly to the next city the day after tomorrow.

They told Shi Yun and Wei Zongying about the nearby famous scenic spots, such as the particularly famous nearby mountains, and the must-see sunrise. They enthusiastically showed photos taken with their mobile phones.

The photography skills are a bit poor, but the scenery is very beautiful.

Shi Yun leaned over to look at the photos on the phone, Wei Congying wasn’t interested at all, and he was sitting on the back of the chair a little slack.

At this time, a white-haired old man selling handicrafts came over with a bamboo basket on her arm. Inside the basket were some cheap red bracelets. Several red bracelets were held by a hand with chapped and swollen knuckles.

A small brown walnut pendant hung on the red string.

Behind the old man was a child, who had a cloth rope tied to his wrist, and the other end of the rope was tied to the old man’s wrist. She told them in non-standard Mandarin mixed with local dialect that her child’s tuition was still a little short. I don’t know if they are willing to buy red rope.

“…We have given these to the temple. They are useful for keeping safe, and they are different from the ones bought outside…”

Looking at the old man with hunched back and slightly trembling hands, and the child behind her who is a bit worn out and shy and introverted towards strangers, my heart is always soft.

They are all ready to buy.

But when she took out her mobile phone and asked for WeChat payment, the old man said that she did not have WeChat and Alipay and could only accept cash.

Fortunately, Shi Yun had the habit of carrying a little cash with her, so she asked Wei Zongying to hand her the bag. There were a lot of things in the bag, so she took them out one by one and put them on the table. From the bottom of the bag, she found a card-style card bag, took out a hundred-yuan bill from the back of a bank card, and straightened the folded bill. Handed it to the old man.

The old man handed them the red string, opened the hem of his jacket, and took out a plastic bag from the cloth bag at his waist, which was full of change.

Shi Yun waved his hand: “Don’t give me change.”

After some evasion and being treated as a Bodhisattva, the old man left.

The old man gave them four red strings, and the young couple from Kacheng wanted to transfer money to Shi Yun, but Shi Yun didn’t want it either.

She asked Wei Congying to extend his hand, he smiled, and stretched out his arm casually, with an expensive watch on one hand and a cheap red bracelet on the other. After tying it for him, Shi Yun fiddled with the small walnut of the pendant: “Okay.”

Wei Congying took another red string from her hand and tied it for her as well.

He doesn’t believe in guaranteeing safety, but it’s fine for her to be happy.

After a while, the boss brought up the dish with a toothpick in his mouth. After putting down the plate, he looked at Shi Yun with a smile, and his meaning was unclear.

The local food is so spicy that Shi Yun’s lipstick doesn’t need to be refilled. The iced Sprite relieved the spicy taste in her mouth, and she burped lightly because of Sprite, and her stomach felt a little burning, but it didn’t hurt at all.

Wei Congying got up to pay the bill, and the young couple next to him also finished eating. After the woman finished her makeup, she stuffed the cosmetics in her hand into her bag. She said that there was a river lamp not far away, and asked Shi Yun and Wei Congying if they wanted to go together.

River lamp?

It’s about the kind of waiting to make a wish.

Just as Shi Yun wanted to agree, Wei Zongying put his arms around her waist and said, “No, we’ve finished our shopping and are ready to go back.”

After she finished speaking, she didn’t say goodbye to those two people, she put her arms around Shi Yun, turned around and headed back the same way she came.

“Are you tired from shopping?” Shi Yun looked up at him, usually in good physical strength, but today she wasn’t tired, so he wanted to go back.

It may also be that men are born with weaker genes for shopping than women.

Wei Congying twitched the corner of his mouth in disdain: “That girl wants to hook me up.”

Shi Yun suspected that he was an outsider, and the young couple didn’t talk to Wei Cong much, and Shi Yun didn’t feel anything wrong when he sat next to the girl, besides, she still had a boyfriend.

“Are you narcissistic?” Shi Yun didn’t believe it, “Could it be that she is a scumbag? Can there be a psychological connection between you scumbag men and scumbags?”

When talking about the scumbag, Shi Yun felt that the hand on his waist that was originally empty suddenly squeezed hard, mercilessly.

Wei Congying gave her a sideways glance, then reached into his trousers pocket with the other hand, and took out a small note: “This.”

Shi Yun took it and saw that it was a phone number. She didn’t notice it the whole time, and she didn’t know when that person gave Wei Zong a response.

Wei Congying took the small note from Shi Yun’s hand again, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the trash can. He led Shi Yun into another road: “Come on, let’s set off the river lantern.”

The owner of the shop that tied the lanterns had a bad heart. In order to prevent people from disturbing the lantern market, all the bosses have unified the price in the past four weeks.

It doesn’t matter where you buy it.

Shi Yun waited for quite a while without being given a pen by someone. Finally, he reluctantly took out the eyeliner from his bag, handed it to Wei Zongying, and asked him to be more concise: “A person who learns Chinese is condensed into the essence.”

Holding the pen, he asked Shi Yun to tear off the cap, looked at the red wishing paper, thought for a while, and finally picked up the pen.

Shi Yun didn’t look at what he wrote, and after he finished writing the volume and stuffed it in the red light, he returned the pen to Shi Yun.

He also didn’t look at Shi Yun, he took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the candles in the two people’s lanterns.

The people who had finished setting off the river lanterns by the river still didn’t leave. Shi Yun was afraid of squeezing people down when it was crowded, so he waited for a while before finding an empty place, and placed the lantern in his hand on the river.

Touching the warm river water with her fingers, she watched her lantern, which was exactly the same as others, swaying on the river, she raised her hand and waved the river water to send the lantern away.

As soon as she got up and walked, she felt that someone stepped on her heel. The inertia of her steps made her lift her leg, and then her foot tightened and then loosened.

The soles of the shoes stayed where they were, and Shi Yun stepped on the road with the residual summer heat on his toes.

It is very easy to become a fairy. It only takes one second to become a barefoot fairy.

The shoes have been scrapped and cannot be worn, and the culprit is unknown who is by the river. She jumped over with one foot, picked up the sole of the shoe in an attempt to save it again.

Wei Congying finished setting up the lanterns, saw her golden rooster standing there alone, walked up to her and stretched out her feet before she stepped on them, took the pair of sandals from Shi Yun’s hand and looked them back and forth.

“Well, I just wished you that everything will go well in the future, but it turned out to be unlucky immediately. The degree of fraud of this lantern is the kind that must be reported at March 15 next year.”

Shi Yun stepped on his sneakers, and was still sad about his misfortune, but was startled when he heard his wish written on the lantern paper.

He adjusted the position of Shi Yun’s bag: “Let’s go, carry you back.”

The first sight is the scene of lanterns and festoons on the old streets of the ancient town. Standing under the bright red lanterns, he shines brighter than anything else. There were huge crowds of people around, and those who passed by them subconsciously turned sideways to avoid them.

Shi Yun lay on his shoulders. Although it was summer, he didn’t have any unpleasant smells on him. He smoked, but there wasn’t much smoke on his body, and the smell of sweat wasn’t too heavy.

She rested her chin on his shoulder, and could see his profile: “Wei Congying.”

He hummed: “What’s wrong?”

“Why did you write me on the lantern?” Shi Yun asked him.

Wei Congying hugged her up and supported her with his hands to prevent her from falling off his back: “Because I don’t have any wishes.”

He doesn’t need to get rich, and he doesn’t need to live a long life.

Love and love are also things that can be easily obtained for him, as if there is really nothing he wants.

Wei Congying continued: “So, I will bless you.”

However, being touched turned into sadness, just like bread baked in an oven, and finally burnt and turned into carbon, it tasted bitter.

At that moment, Shi Yun didn’t know whether he was sad that he didn’t want to live a long life, or that the person like him wanted to live a long life but couldn’t live a hundred years.

Her chin moved away from Wei Zongying’s shoulder, and only the back of his head could be seen.

The night wind blew the sleeves of his short sleeves.

In the next second, Wei Cong should feel his shoulders sinking, and she leaned back on her shoulders again. Wei Cong should not be able to see her expression, but he could still feel her sudden unhappiness.

“Shi Yun.” He called her name.

He was answered with a muffled ‘hmm’. He thought that all her unhappiness was what he saw, and he couldn’t save others, so he didn’t choose to continue studying, and he blamed himself for hurting his mother.

“Don’t abuse yourself, don’t criticize yourself. If you really just give up and don’t continue to study, you can’t overcome the psychological shadow of being unable to save others. This is the most sad thing for auntie.”

The night wind carried his words and blew towards Shi Yun with the coolness of the night.

He said that she just couldn’t face death in the face: “If one day I die, don’t feel sorry for me.”

It may be because he happened to be out of the country during the rebellious period, and the Western Carpe Die party had a greater influence on him. Although he can’t ride a horse forward like a knight, he can “give a cold glance at life and death” in the first half of the sentence.

He thought that Shi Yun also gave these things a cold glance, she had trapped herself for too long.

The chirping of insects came from the green belt along the street, and the hustle and bustle of the old streets of the ancient town had been left behind by them.

The way back to the hotel was a bit long, Wei Congying kept her on his back, feeling the weight and temperature of his back.

Perhaps in this era of praying to gods and worshiping Buddha to protect safety and wealth, his appearance is too out of place, like an isolated island covered in fog, with ships sailing on the sea docking, but those ships will eventually leave the island filled with fog .

Wei Congying’s words didn’t get any response from the people behind him. He was like a little teacher, after explaining the truth that one plus one equals two, he asked, “Do you understand?”

do not know.

She doesn’t know a lot.

For example, I don’t know whether Wei Cong should give the touch when he wished for the lantern was his own, or it was given by that face.

Wei Congying said that sometimes she is too soft-hearted, and it is not a good thing to get emotional with someone easily.

Shi Yun was sullen: “Really?”

He asked back, “Don’t believe me?”

Wei Cong should let her across the road.

Shi Yun followed his instructions and looked across the road. Under the alternation of street lights, there were two familiar figures, one old and one young, and they were the old grandmother who bought bracelets for them at the restaurant.

It’s already some distance away from the old street, Shi Yun didn’t expect them to sell bracelets so far away.

In the next second, a black car drove over and stopped beside the old and the young. The shy and introverted child shouted excitedly: “Mom and Dad.”

Be deceived.

Shi Yun frowned and looked at the inexplicable joy of the family on the other side of the street. When the car drove, it seemed that he needed to raise tuition fees. It suddenly occurred to me that after I bought the bracelet, the restaurant owner’s smile when serving the food turned out to be a habitual offender.

She was lost: “how so.”

Wei Cong smiled: “Sad? Feeling cheated?”

Shi Yun pouted: “It’s a little sad, after all, love is being used.”

Wei Congying turned his head and glanced at her, jokingly said, “Then I’ll make an agreement with you in advance, and I’ll charge you interest for my hotel room later. I’m not a kind person.”

The author has something to say:

Give a cold glance at life and death – Yeats

Boo boo! !

Anyway, it is Xiao Wei who can make Shi Yun overcome those fears. This is probably the reason why 10 likes him, because he is enough to do whatever he wants, and he has that disdain for life and death…temperament (??)

The scumbag also failed because of the project, but bankruptcy is not enough. Because I feel that it is a bit too procrastinated to expand the scumbag line in detail, and the current plot is already procrastinated. (Because the previous chapters mentioned that Jiang Xuyang reminded Wei Zongying that the project between their family and Fu Wang’s family is also a relatively important point in Yangon, so I won’t write in detail here.)
