No.70 days

The winter vacation has begun, and Shao Wu is bored at home every day, either doing homework or reading.My parents reconciled somehow, and they stopped talking about helping Wang Yujun find a job.That's right, Shao Wu recalled the scene of Wang Yujun and the man kissing forcefully in the noodle shop that day, Wang Yujun was so... unscrupulous, who would dare to introduce him to a job?

A few days ago, my parents were busy, my father had a lot of entertainment, and my mother took advantage of the winter vacation of the kindergarten to attend a management training class in Chongqing.Shao Wu is at home by himself, so it can be said that he is free. He usually does his homework in the morning, eats at a nearby restaurant at noon, and in the afternoon he reads the library in a mess and borrows a copy of "Nie Zi". According to the Internet, this novel is about It's a gay story.But Shao Wu only watched a third of it, and he really didn't want to continue watching.

——It's too miserable, those boys written in "Nie Zi" are too miserable.Shao Wu read their pain, couldn't help hurting others, and felt sad.These boys also reminded him of Wang Yujun.What has Wang Yujun experienced?Why not go to work and hang out in Internet cafes every day?Why can you kiss a man in public like no one else?On the third day of the winter vacation, Shao Wu went to Jinlai Internet Cafe to look for Wang Yujun again, but he was not found.The network administrator said that Wang Yujun hadn't been here for several days, maybe he was going home for the New Year.

Does Wang Yujun still have a home?Shao Wu didn't know.

What Shao Wu also didn't know was whether it was his adolescence now.It turns out that adolescence is not a physical stage, but a psychological stage?He started to focus on the math papers, put his mobile phone within reach for fear of missing a call, and cut the English songs in the mp3 into the song "Hypnosis".At the turn of the century, Faye Wong's singing was so loud, the taste of the first bite of cake, the taste of the second bite of cake, the strong wind blows, the popcorn is so beautiful.

It doesn't snow anymore in Yongchuan, it often rains.

Yang Shuyi didn't call him.

On the 29th of the Lunar New Year, my parents finally took a rest. As in previous years, the family of three brought big and small bags of New Year’s goods and drove to Chongqing for the New Year’s Eve.The third aunt of Shaowu is doing business in Chongqing and lives in a villa, so she goes there every year in the group because the place is spacious after all.

It didn't rain that day, and the sun even came out for a while in the morning, and the water on the road dried up. My mother sat in the passenger seat, smiling and said, "This year is a good sign." Shao Wu was holding a box of bacon in the back seat, "Yeah." One sound.

"What's wrong with Yao'er?" Mom turned to look at Shao Wu, "in a bad mood?"

"Huh? No."

"That's because you didn't sleep well last night? You can't cheer up."

"No..." Shao Wu curled up his mouth and smiled, "The air conditioner is too hot, I'm a little sleepy."

From the 24th of the twelfth lunar month to the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, for five whole days, Shao Wu did not receive a call from Yang Shuyi.He was both angry and regretful.Are you angry that Yang Shuyi really doesn't contact him at all?Regrettably, if I knew this earlier, I should have asked Yang Shuyi for his landline number.Yang Shuyi doesn't have a mobile phone, but he can be reached from a landline, right?After all, he said he would take care of his parents-in-law at home.

In fact, it was only five days, but Shao Wu felt that it had been a long time.

Many relatives have already come to Sangu's house first. There are people in the whole room. Those who play mahjong play mahjong, those who cook cook, and those who take care of their children are noisy and happy.The focus of this year's group year is Shao Wu's cousin, the second aunt's son, Zhang Ruizhe.Zhang Ruizhe was admitted to Beijing Institute of Technology in the college entrance examination last year. This winter vacation is his first winter vacation in four years.

Adults and children surrounded Zhang Ruizhe and asked, how is Beijing?How is your school?Zhang Ruizhe could speak well, but after staying with his roommate in Liaoning for a semester, he picked up a little Northeast dialect, so his speech was very interesting.

Shao Wu also leaned over to listen to his cousin talk about his college life.

"The heating is always comfortable. It's just my cotton-padded jacket. My roommate splashed water on it. Damn it, it dries up after a while! It's very convenient!"

"But it's really cold outside. One night I washed my long johns to dry on the balcony. When I touched them the next morning, they were hard! The water froze."

"Ah?" Shao Wu asked in a daze, "Can you still wear it?"

"Yes, put it on the heater and bake it, and it will be dry."

The cousin took out his mobile phone to show everyone the photos. The Nokia N95 slider phone was a new model last year.On the screen, the blue sky of Beijing was as clear as a clear blue, five Fuwas were painted on the walls of the zoo, and tall buildings were being erected everywhere.In the next picture, the lake is frozen, and many people are skating in down jackets.

"This is Weiming Lake, which belongs to Peking University, you must know it?" Cousin said to Shao Wu, "It's quite fun to be able to skate in winter."

This is Beijing in 2008. It is thriving. Even just a few photos can touch the mood of a teenager.

"After the college entrance examination next year, you should also apply to the school in Beijing. I heard from my mother that you have good grades, so there is no problem," my cousin said enthusiastically, "I will take you to play there, there are many interesting places."

Shao Wu was fascinated by the photos, and just about to nod and say "yes", the pockets of his trousers vibrated.

He snapped back to his senses, and hurried out of the room to the balcony on the second floor.

On the screen was a string of unfamiliar landline numbers.

"...Hello?" Shao Wu picked up the phone, his heart beating like a drum, his mouth dry.

"Shao Wu," Yang Shuyi's voice came into his ears like this, which almost made him feel unreal, "What are you doing?"

"I, I'm in the group year," it feels wrong to say it, who is not in the group year at this time? "At my third aunt's house." Shao Wu added.

"Well, mother-in-law asked me to ask you." Yang Shuyi smiled, as if a little embarrassed, "Do you have any arrangements for the second day of junior high school? Mother-in-law wants to invite you to come to my house for dinner."

On the second day of the previous year, Shaowu's family would go to the house of their grandparents.

but--

"Uh, noon or evening?"

"It's okay, it depends on your time."

"Me too..." Shao Wu felt his throat tighten, "I can do it too."

Yang Shuyi smiled again: "Then how about noon?"

"Okay, okay, thank you mother-in-law."

He's going to Yang Shuyi's house for dinner!

"You're welcome, see you then."

"See you then." Shao Wu squeezed the phone tightly.

Neither of them spoke, but neither of them hung up the phone.After a pause of two or three seconds, Yang Shuyi said softly, "I wish you a New Year greeting in advance, happy new year."

Shao Wu bit his lip and said, "Happy New Year."

"bye Bye."

"Bye-Bye."

Yang Shuyi hung up the phone.

Shao Wu stood on the terrace in a daze. In the distance, there were tall and low buildings, faint mountains, and thick winter cumulus clouds.

He doesn't want to go anywhere, Beijing, Weiming Lake, the zoo...he doesn't want to go anywhere.

He just wanted to see Yang Shuyi immediately, immediately.
