first love is not too late

Chapter 73

The older I get, the more I feel that the New Year is boring. After cleaning the house and pasting the Spring Festival couplets, the atmosphere is a little bit better.

Ming and Qing got up early in the morning to work. Ji Langxing brought back a lot of fish yesterday, and used a small water pump to raise them on the balcony. Fish is a must for the New Year’s Eve dinner in Fengcheng, which means that there will be fish every year. There is a custom that fish cannot be eaten until the Lantern Festival before using chopsticks.But because it is too unhealthy, few people stay for that long.

The wild fish brought by Ji Langxing were not very active, and the balcony was close to Ji Mingyu's room, and Ji Mingyu, who had been noisy all night with those fish, didn't sleep well.

"Catch a few of those fish and send them to Xiaoyue's house downstairs, and Xiaoyun's house will also send two." Ji Langxing was helping Ming and Qing pick vegetables, and when he saw Ji Mingyu get up, he ordered.

"Oh." Ji Mingyu brushed his teeth, squatting on the balcony and staring at the six jubilant fish.

Ji Mingyu doesn't like fish very much, so he can't tell the difference between grass carp and carp, crucian carp. Anyway, these few are not small in size, and they swim happily in a row.

After watching for two seconds, Ji Mingyu remembered that Fu Shian liked to eat fish, so he took a mobile phone to take a picture and send it to Fu Shian to have a look. As soon as he walked over with his mobile phone, the fishes all swung their tails and splashed a splash of water, Ji Mingyu hurriedly Dodged, and said viciously after the filming: "I will eat you again."

Ji Langxing glanced at his silly son who was fussing about fish in silence.

After washing, Ji Mingyu took four fish in a bag and went downstairs. Just when Mo Yun came out of the house, Ji Mingyu gave him the fish. After Mo Yun took it, he knocked on Zhou Xiaoyue's door. Ji Mingyu went in with him carrying the fish. I know, it turns out that the two of them plan to celebrate the New Year together this year.

"The progress of the two of you is too fast." Ji Mingyu looked helplessly at the two aunts working happily in the kitchen.

Zhou Xiaoyue was leaning on the sofa like a princess, with a porcelain plate in hand, with a pile of walnuts piled on top, stuffing it into her mouth while watching TV, while Mo Yun peeled the walnuts for her to add to it.

"You think I want to, if my dad didn't stop me," Zhou Xiaoyue said helplessly, and raised her chin towards the kitchen, "The two of them can't wait to go to the engagement banquet and have a wedding banquet right away."

"..."

"alright."

Ji Mingyu was completely convinced.

However, the two families knew each other well. After graduation, Aunt Mo was worried that Mo Yun would not chase after girls, and Aunt Zhou was worried that Zhou Xiaoyue was too out of character. She didn’t expect these two to be sold in the domestic market. It’s no surprise that they were happy to solve the two problems at once. .

"So you two really plan to settle down?" Ji Mingyu also peeled an orange, "Are you going to get married?"

Mo Yun: "Yes."

Zhou Xiaoyue: "No."

The two spoke in unison but gave opposite answers.Zhou Xiaoyue glared at Mo Yun, grabbed an orange and threw it over: "Who said I want to marry you."

Mo Yun caught the orange, squinted his eyes and glanced at her, then peeled the orange and handed it to her: "I can marry you, anyway, it's a matter of two steps."

Ji Mingyu: "..."

Sassy, ​​too sassy.

"Farewell." Ji Mingyu, who couldn't bear the tiredness of the two, left the fish and went home by himself.

There was a message from Fu Shi'an on the phone, and Ji Ming rained it.

Little Sun: [Picture.jpg]

Little Sun: Look at the fish.

Yuanyuan: I don’t want to see fish.

Little Sun: Then what do you want to see?

Soon the phone vibrated, white bubbles popped out, and there was only one word 'you'.

Ji Mingyu chuckled lightly, is Men Hulu always so coquettish when it comes to love?

Just flirt, he likes it too.

Ji Mingyu turned on the video call and dialed it.

He also wanted to see Fu Shi'an.

After a while, the video was switched on, and the screen was completely white at first, and then the camera shook for a while before showing Fu Shi'an's good face.

He seemed to have trimmed his hair. The broken hair on the forehead was thinned, and it was separated from one side in an S shape and fell on the eyebrows, refreshing and capable.

"Can you see me?" Ji Mingyu walked to the window sill of the stairs, and pulled the phone a little farther away. The light here was good, and Ji Mingyu was shining brightly on the shrunken screen.

"Hmm." Fu Shi'an seemed to be indoors, and he also took the phone away, "Where are you?"

"Stairwell, I just went to Xiaoyue's house." Ji Mingyu said casually, noticing that Fu Shi'an was wearing a red sweater today, which made his face fairer and his lips were bright red, making him look younger by several years. "It's so red today."

Fu Shi'an gave an 'hmm' sound, as if he was embarrassed, and pulled the phone closer so that he could only see the enlarged handsome face, "My sister bought it, so she forced me to wear it."

Thinking of the 'New Year's gift' that Sister Jing gave them both on New Year's Day—two sets of red autumn clothes, Ji Mingyu couldn't help laughing, "Sister Jing likes red so much."

Fu Shi'an was also very helpless, "She said that she should wear red during the Chinese New Year, and it will be very prosperous..."

"In a daze." Ji Mingyu answered.

After speaking, both of them laughed. I don't know if it was because of the reflection of the clothes or what, Fu Shi'an's face on the screen was peachy, and his smile was still gentle, but with the youthfulness of adolescence.

Thinking about it, Fu Shi'an's clothes were mostly dark colors of black, white and gray. He seemed to have never worn bright colors, so suddenly wearing such bright colors made his face even more eye-catching when it became vivid.

"You look good in bright colors. In the future, buy less dark colors, like an old man. Buy more brightly colored clothes."

Fu Shi'an raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Like you?"

"uh-huh?"

"Do you know what my sister said when I came back wearing your dress?"

"what?"

"She said that I look like a model of Hailan House ten years ago." Fu Shi'an said, his eyes were full of jokes: "Guess whether she praised me or hurt me."

Ji Mingyu: "..."

"Who are you chatting with, and what are you talking about me?" A light-colored figure flashed behind Fu Shi'an, and then Fu Jing's face moved closer to the screen, "Ming Yu, what did he say bad things about me?"

"Sister Jing." Ji Mingyu twitched the corners of his mouth, "I didn't say anything, but said that the clothes you bought for him were pretty."

Fu Jing snapped her fingers, "You still have vision."

Ji Mingyu: "..."

So it should be a compliment to him.

"I bought two and asked him to bring you one later." Fu Jing raised her eyebrows with a smile, and then whispered, "You two put together a couple outfit."

When Ji Mingyu said 'I can't do it', he was blocked by the couple pretending to be three words, and he smiled and said thank you sister.

He changed his words, and Fu Jing exclaimed "Hey" several times, and asked Ji Mingyu to go to Baicheng to play when he had time, but Fu Shian drove him away with a red face.

The New Year’s Eve dinner was well prepared for Ming and Qing Dynasties, and Ji Mingyu also learned to cook a few dishes. The family gathered around the dining table, turned on the TV, and ate the reunion dinner while listening to the Spring Festival Gala. They fell in love, so the two families celebrated the New Year together.

Ming and Qing: "That's right, that's not very good, Xiaoyue and Mo Yun are so good."

Ji Langxing also nodded, and then glanced sideways at Ji Mingyu who was staring at the TV, "What about you? When are you going to come back with a date?"

A skit by a well-known comedian was playing on TV, and Ji Mingyu was fascinated by it, and said casually, "We're talking, we're talking."

"Which girl, when will you bring her back for a look?" Ji Langxing said along the way.

Ji Mingyu didn't hear clearly at all, and he didn't come back to his senses until his calf was kicked. His father was asking him, "Huh?"

"I said when will you bring the object home to see." Ji Langxing picked up a fish with chopsticks, his tone was the same as usual, Ji Mingyu was stunned by the word 'object', and immediately looked at Ming and Qing.

My dad also knows?

I haven't even started yet, so how come I know everything?

Is it so easy to accept?

Ming and Qing didn't seem to want to talk about it, so they took a chopstick of green vegetables and put them in Ji Langxing's bowl: "What's the rush, you don't know if you can bear it, so I will see you."

Ji Mingyu: "..."

So that means you can take it?

"What does it mean to be able to bear it? It's not that I'm begging for a wife."

Ji Langxing looked puzzled.

Ming and Qing: "Okay, let's eat your meal, we'll talk about this later."

The skit on TV was still going on, but Ji Mingyu was not interested anymore.

For a meal, the three of them had different thoughts.

After eating, Ji Mingyu helped to clean up the dishes, thinking about communicating with his mother, but his mother asked him to clean up the tableware with Ji Langxing, and went downstairs to Xiaoyue's house to play mahjong with the small bag, and didn't want to talk to him at all. It means to have a conversation.

Ji Langxing sat down for a while and went downstairs to play chess. Mo Yun and Zhou Xiaoyue were driven to Ji Mingyu's house by the mahjong-playing adults as in previous years.

The three of them were fighting landlords while listening to the Spring Festival Gala.

There are a lot of people in Fu Shi'an's family during the Chinese New Year. Besides his family of four and his uncle's family, his cousin got married long ago and gave birth to his second child.Fu Jing also went out to play wild. The adults drank and drank, those who played cards played cards, and those who played mahjong played mahjong. As a loafer who didn't drink cards, he had to help take care of the two children.

So the news of Ji Mingyu was also very slow.Ji Mingyu, who was waiting for the news, was a little absent-minded, and Mo Yun, a love-minded Mensao, frantically poured water on Zhou Xiaoyue. He played for more than an hour without winning a round.

"It's boring, I don't want to play anymore." Ji Mingyu threw away the cards in his hand.

Zhou Xiaoyue: "Tch, I can't afford to lose."

Ji Mingyu refused to accept it: "Sister, no matter whether I am a landlord or not, it was you two who beat me up. You still have the face to say that I can't afford to lose after I play with you."

Zhou Xiaoyue: ...

It's still early, and there is still more than an hour to watch the new year until the early morning. Zhou Xiaoyue played with her mobile phone for a while and proposed to go to People's Square to watch the fireworks. Only People's Square opened up a firework show, which can have a little New Year's atmosphere.

Ji Mingyu had no interest at first, but Fu Shi'an sent him a WeChat message just now, saying that he took his two nieces to play fairy sticks, and took some photos for him. The little girl in the photo is indeed Fu Shi'an's niece, who looks like a doll It seems that the bright light of the fairy stick illuminates their smiling faces, and they like it very much.

Fireworks, Ji Mingyu suddenly became interested.

So the three went to People's Square together.

The winter in Fengcheng is dry and cold, and the night wind is like a knife. Ji Mingyu regretted it when he went out. Mo Yun had already driven the car over, and he got into the car calmly since he came.

People's Square is an old square in Fengcheng. In recent years, the city center has moved south and it has become dilapidated. However, because of the fireworks display on New Year's Eve, many people gathered in the square. Mo Yun parked his car in an open space not far away. , the three of them walked towards the crowd.

There is a huge electronic display screen on the square, and the Spring Festival Gala program is playing on it, and the firework show will not start until midnight. At this moment, the crowd is playing with the fireworks sticks they bought themselves from the vendors.Zhou Xiaoyue's Maiden's Heart appeared once in a while, and bought a lot of them and shared a few with Ji Mingyu.

Then the young couple dropped his light bulb and went to play with fire.

Ji Mingyu began to regret going out again.

The light in front of my eyes is gorgeous, everyone has more or less smiling faces, the children are running, laughing, the fireworks are flickering and going out, most of Ji Mingyu's eyes are couples, and when he lowers his gaze, they are mostly children .

A little girl next to her held a lighted fairy wand in both hands and danced a short ballet, while her mother held up her mobile phone to take pictures.

The firelight drew a graceful arc with her movements, Ji Mingyu looked down at the fireworks stick in his hand for a while, and then went to the supermarket to buy a lighter.

After lighting it up, Ji Mingyu took a photo with his mobile phone and sent it to Fu Shi'an.

Said that he had a little girl dancing a firework dance in the square, said that Zhou Xiaoyue and Mo Yun value sex over friends, said that there will be a firework show in a while, it will be very lively, and said that this fairy stick is quite beautiful.

Fu Shi'an was probably busy, so he didn't reply in a second. The surroundings were warm and lively. Ji Mingyu looked at the green bubbles on the chat page, and suddenly understood the missing.

He babbled a lot, all he wanted to say was "I miss you so much."

But they were only separated for two days.

Ji Mingyu suddenly laughed lowly, the phone in his hand started to vibrate, and the CCTV Spring Festival Gala host group appeared one after another on the electronic screen behind him.

Then freeze on the countdown to the last minute.

Ji Mingyu pressed the answer button, and the hustle and bustle behind him seemed to fade away.

"Are you outside?" Fu Shi'an asked.

"Ah."

"What are you doing?" Fu Shi'an was very quiet, and he could hear the countdown of the crowd around Ji Mingyu counting in unison, and Ji Mingyu said bluntly, "I'm thinking of you."

Ji Mingyu looked up at the three-second countdown on the screen.

"3--"

"2--"

"1!"

"Happy New Year."

The uniform crowd was noisy, and as the zero o'clock struck on time, gorgeous fireworks rushed into the night, illuminating the night and the joy of the crowd's laughter.

Ji Mingyu heard Fu Shi'an say, "Happy New Year."

Hearing this, Ji Mingyu laughed and said, "I say the same thing every year,"

While talking, he walked to a place with few people, "Let's talk about something different this year."

Fu Shi'an: "Huh? What did you say?"

A brilliant firework exploded in the night sky,

"Yuanyuan," Ji Mingyu said, "Happy New Year."

The colorful fireworks turned into fine starlight, shining and slowly falling down to draw a tail of light.

A meteor shower fell in the night sky above his head.

Ji Mingyu heard a chuckle in Jian's ear, and Ji Mingyu guessed that he wanted to complain about the difference, so he told him what was different this year.

他 说:

"I love you."

Fireworks lit the signal, and the sound of explosions came one after another like drums. Blossoming colorful fireworks bloomed in the dark night. They flashed, extinguished, and then bloomed again. The splendor of this moment is worth remembering forever.

"What did you just say?" After two or three seconds, Fu Shi'an's voice came over. This question was not real through the cracks of the firecrackers, or maybe it was trembling slightly because of the transmission of radio waves.

Ji Mingyu laughed, and the fireworks leaped into his eyes, which were brighter than ever before, "I said,"

At the beginning of the new year full of people's voices, Ji Mingyu said loudly and firmly the six words that he did not know when he wrote in his heart:

"Fu Shi'an,"

"I love you."
