Chapter 22 New Year's Eve
Chapter 22 New Year's Eve
On the morning of New Year's Eve, Li Yang is destined not to sleep in late.Just the people who come to pay New Year's greetings early in the morning is enough for him. He has lived for 18 years and still doesn't understand why he wants to pay New Year's greetings in the morning.
On the contrary, Li's parents and Li's mother's generation prefer this kind of excitement, making a fuss for a long time.Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. In the past few years, Li Yang's family and Nan Nan's family have been spending New Year's Eve together. Naturally, they have to prepare a lot for the New Year's Eve dinner. The two families have been busy since the afternoon.
Li Yang and Nan Nan occasionally help out, but most of the time they are still playing with their mobile phones in the living room.Even if it is Chinese New Year, the elders still have to chatter a few words: "It's New Year's Eve today, and I still hold a mobile phone and don't let go. What's so beautiful, my eyes are broken."
"I keep my head down all day, and my cervical spine is sick."
"No, the youngest son downstairs is only a few years old, and he already wears glasses, and he just plays with his mobile phone."
After the elders grasped this consensus, they chatted and even put aside the preparations for the New Year's Eve dinner.Nan Nan and Li Yang looked at each other and entered the room at the same time.It turned into Nan Nan lying down and playing with her mobile phone, and Li Yang sitting and watching the computer.The temptation of the Internet to young people cannot be changed by a few words from the elders.
"Hey, did student Xi send you New Year's greetings?"
"No."
"I didn't either, and he didn't mass post either."
"It's just you mass-posting."
"That's not it. How many people send mass messages these days, it's so easy."
"Oh."
"Hmph, the indifference of contemporary young people." Nan Nan sat up from the bed, "Tell me, it's not true that Xi's parents won't come back today, right?"
"I don't know."
"If it's really a New Year's Eve alone, it's too pitiful."
The two spent the whole afternoon in such a daze, and were called out by the adults to have a New Year's Eve dinner.Sitting around a table and watching the Spring Festival Gala gave me a taste of the past.
"Come on, Xiaonan's father, let's have a drink."
"Taste the wine I brought, made from spring water."
"It's so sweet, Yangyang, you're an adult too, have a drink with your Uncle Nan."
"I've never drank liquor."
"Then you have to taste it. Come, uncle will pour you a cup."
Li Yang has a strong ability to accept, and he didn't feel spicy when drinking baijiu for the first time. Li's father saw that his son was doing well, so he refilled another glass.After the New Year's Eve dinner, Li Yang drank a lot of liquor, but Li Yang didn't feel anything.
After eating, I put away the Spring Festival Gala and wait for the countdown to the New Year's Eve. This time has been deafening in the past few years.Nan Nan looked at the Spring Festival Gala and sighed: "I used to think that the sound of firecrackers was too loud, but now there are no more. Instead, I think about it."
"No, we used to run wild with firecrackers at this time."
"Yes, yes, it's just the second kicker, hey, it's gone now."
Li Yang listened to the adults talking about the past, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated twice, and he swiped open the phone.
Brother Xi: [Happy New Year! ]
It seems that I have to turn off the vibration quickly, the group message is coming soon.Li Yang wanted to remind Nan Nan to turn on the mute, but found that the phone on the table was not on.
Not group hair?Li Yang took out his phone again, and sure enough there was another unread message from Xi Chao.
Brother Xi: [In the new year, I wish my little duo good health and never be late. ]
Sure enough, it wasn't a group post, and Li Yang also responded with a happy new year for the first time.After waiting for a while, Xi Chao replied again. It seems that he was chatting with his family members.
"Nan Nan, turn on the mute." Li Yang put away the phone and reminded Nan Nan
"Well, I will close it after I finish swiping Moments." Nan Nan browsed through various New Year's Eve dinners, "Look, Li Yang! Xi Chao really celebrates the New Year alone." Nan Nan held up the phone to Li Yang, and the TV was on in the photo. In the Spring Festival Gala at the same time, there are takeaways and a bottle of beer on the coffee table, and the words are happy new year.
He recognized that coffee table, last time he was sitting on it watching Xi Chao who was drinking too much.Li Yang frowned. Seeing that the countdown was only a few minutes away, the adults in the room became more emotional as the host of the Spring Festival Gala raised his voice. The scene in front of him was lively, but Xi Chao was alone in his mind. A picture of drinking in the living room.
Li Yang pondered for a few seconds, and finally couldn't hold back the call from Xi Chao, and walked towards the window of the restaurant.Sure enough, the call was answered in seconds.
"Li Yang?"
"Yeah." After the phone call went through, Li Yang didn't know what to say again.
"Did you... press the wrong button?" Xi Chao knew that Li Yang usually wouldn't call.
"Ah... yes..."
On the other end of the phone, there was the same voice as my own, the countdown voice of the party host.The difference is that there is the sound of my family counting down on my side, but there is only the sound of the TV on the other side. "Five...four...."
"Hahaha, let's hang up."
"three two......"
"and many more!"
"Ok?"
"one!"
"Xi Chao, Happy New Year!"
Li Yang's side became lively, it was the family members who were greeting each other, but Xi Chao could still clearly hear Li Yang's words, celebrating such an important festival alone, saying that he didn't care was a lie, and he was pretending to be free and easy. choked up.
"Hmm...Happy New Year, Li Yang."
Li Yang heard the difference in Xi Chao's voice, and wanted to say a few more words, when he saw Li's father in the living room beckoning him to come and pay New Year's greetings.
"Well, I..." was interrupted before finishing speaking
"I'm not alone this year, and it's great to have you with me on New Year's Eve."
Li Yang clenched his phone tightly and suddenly didn't want to hang up.
"Okay, you go to work, don't stay up too late."
"Xi Chao."
"what?"
"I didn't press the wrong key."
"I called you specifically to wish you a happy new year."
No one set off firecrackers outside the window, but fireworks exploded in the chests of the two.
The author has something to say:
I'm a little busy these days, and I'm trying to find time to code words. This chapter has few words, but it's very important.
