Chapter 92 The Three People's New Year's Eve (1)
He once thought that he had worked so hard to get closer to her, closer, but in fact it was not the case, even at this moment, it was only one step away, and her door never wanted to be opened for him.She is in her closed world separated by a door, and he is outside the door, whether it is far or near, there is actually no difference.

I don't know if it was due to the consideration of the unidentified condition, or the special atmosphere of the festival, or Sun Jinling's acquiescence. In short, Ju Nian's request to take the child out of the hospital to go home for the New Year was unexpectedly approved by the hospital. If you feel unwell, see a doctor at any time, and return to the hospital immediately after the Spring Festival.

Early in the morning on New Year's Eve, it was Tang Ye who drove to pick up Ju Nian's aunt and nephew.Tang Ye's severe cold was basically cured, but his face was sunken, his eyes were sunken, and his complexion was dim. He was even more haggard than when he was sick.Ju Nian briefly asked about his recent situation, but he only said that the people from the procuratorate came to him several times later, and they continued to interrogate him endlessly, but except for the restriction of leaving the local area, other actions have not been affected.

New Year's Eve is a big day for Chinese people every year, but God seems to deliberately oppose the celebration in the world. The sky is as dark as a big pot, and the rain doesn't stop all night.In the morning, the rain began to beat down with fine snow particles, and the ice shards and the damp wind rushed towards the face, like a knife cutting. This is a kind of gangrene that many northerners living in the south can't bear. the chill.

After getting into Tang Ye's car, Feiming's spirits improved obviously. She leaned on her aunt, looked out the window with wide eyes, and a faint blush appeared on her bluish-white face.When the car passed the train station, Feiming looked at the crowds in the station square with great curiosity.My aunt said that so many people braved the rain and cold wind for a common reason - to go home.

"I can go home too." Feiming murmured.

Ju Nian touched her hot face and nodded again and again. That dilapidated courtyard that was forgotten by the whole world was always a place that could accommodate their bodies and even their souls. Like Feiming, she suddenly longed to return to that place.

Tang Ye helped them settle down. At the end, he said, "Ju Nian, today is New Year's Eve, why don't you and Feiming come and have a New Year's Eve dinner with us."

Ju Nian hesitated for a while.

Tang Ye went on to say: "There is no one else. I am also a master who is one step away from the lonely family. My aunt cooks at home. The elderly are afraid of being lonely, so she also asked me to call you."

Ju Nian's concerns are actually not unreasonable, Tang Ye is already one of the few people they can get close to, naturally there is nothing to be seen, but one is obviously seriously ill, and if it is a Chinese New Year, more traditional people will feel unlucky, She doesn't want to cause trouble for others; besides, although Tang Ye's aunt treated her well in the past, after the contact with Prosecutor Cai, Ju Nian believed that her background had long been exposed to the old man, and Tang Ye didn't mind. It didn't mean his aunt didn't mind either.

"What's the meaning of Chinese New Year? Isn't it just to make everyone feel less lonely? Believe me, my aunt also knows that Feiming's health is not very good, and she loves you very much."

"Then... where is Prosecutor Cai?" Ju Nian glanced back, Feiming clearly had expectations in her eyes, why didn't she want to give her child a warm holiday, but she couldn't imagine having dinner at the same table with Cai Yilin again, then It will only make her tasteless.Cai Yilin has no one under her knees, and her husband has passed away. Besides Tang Ye, who is her stepson, who else can she reunite with?

Tang Ye smiled and said: "Auntie doesn't have New Year's Eve dinner with us. She spends these days with the colleagues on duty in the procuratorate. She always said that as long as there is another colleague who can't go home for the New Year because of work, she will You have to fight with them to the end. Don't believe me, my aunt is such a thorough professional woman, there is nothing more important than her job."

Ju Nian thought of Cai Yilin's unruly bun, straight back and sharp eyes.She still wonders, can a woman really put work above all else?Or does she actually have nothing but work?In any case, knowing that Chief Prosecutor Cai will not appear on the New Year's Eve dinner table really moved Ju Nian's heart.

"Auntie, let's go, you don't have time to prepare anything delicious now." Feiming couldn't hold back any longer, and begged pitifully while holding Ju Nian by the sleeve.After all, he was still a child, and for a few seconds, Ju Nian even forgot that Feiming actually couldn't eat anything.

Tang Ye pretended to be displeased, "If you don't agree, you will be cheating on me."

Ju Nian took Feiming's hand and laughed, "Then I can really save a lot of trouble. Cooking has never been my strong point."

Since she had made up her mind to have a New Year's Eve dinner with Tang Ye, Ju Nian was not in a hurry to arrange dinner. After Feiming lay back on the crib, she chatted with Tang Ye for a while, and Tang Ye's cell phone rang.

It didn't take long for Tang Ye to answer the phone. After walking back from the eaves of Piaoyu, he said to Ju Nian: "My aunt is getting old, and she always realizes that she forgot to buy the most important thing when it comes in handy. No, I started cooking the meal, and then I realized that there are still some necessary materials that I haven’t bought. How about this, I’ll go back and see her, you guys rest for a while, and I’ll come pick you up at noon.”

Ju Nian naturally has no opinion.After seeing Tang Ye off, Feiming, who yelled that she didn't want to sleep, slowly fell asleep. She sat under the window facing the yard, looking at the dead branches and leaves in the yard that had been soaked by the rain.

"It's been another year." She said to the invisible Wu Yu.

The rustling of the rain on the eaves answered her.

Whenever she sat quietly, the speed of time passing was astonishing, so it was no surprise that 11 years of Ju Nian passed in the blink of an eye.The noon appointment with Tang Ye came quickly, Ju Nian woke up Feiming, put on her little red coat, and waited for Tang Ye's wheels.

Nearly one o'clock, they waited for a call from Tang Ye.

Tang Ye on the other end was very anxious and didn't know what to do. He said: "My aunt suffered from acute myocarditis when she was making dumplings with colleagues left behind in Chengxi Hospital. She is already on the way to the hospital. The situation is very bad. There is no one around my aunt. Who is it, Ju Nian, I..."

Before he finished speaking, Ju Nian already understood, and quickly agreed: "We're fine, you go and do your work, the patient is important, you don't have to worry about our side, we'll talk about everything when she gets better."

After changing his clothes, Feiming half leaned against the head of the bed and looked at a small mirror. Seeing this, he was a little confused and couldn't help asking, "Auntie, when will Uncle Tang pick us up to celebrate the New Year?"

Ju Nian walked over, bent down and gently pressed his forehead against the Little Red Riding Hood on Feiming's head, and said with a smile, "Isn't it good to celebrate the festival with my aunt? My aunt is going to buy vegetables and cook right away."

Ju Nian frantically brought the hot steamed fish out of the pot, causing her to shake her hands away from the heat. At this moment, she vaguely heard a movement from the gate.It was already around five o'clock in the afternoon. According to the local customs, the New Year's Eve dinner is generally eaten earlier. As usual, firecrackers are set off before the meal. It took a long time for Ju Nian to conclude the bursts of door calls Not hallucinations.

Feiming was still leaning on the bed watching her favorite Korean drama, dazed, still holding the remote control in his hand, when he saw Ju Nian approaching, he rubbed his eyes and asked, "Auntie, is dinner ready?"

Ju Nian walked towards the gate of the courtyard, and replied, "It will be ready soon, I'll go see if Uncle Tang is here."

She took an umbrella and walked through the foyer to the small courtyard. Sure enough, there was someone outside the courtyard gate welded by iron bars, but it was not Tang Ye as she expected. Han Shu of the rain.

After seeing her person, Han Shu who was outside the door was obviously relieved, "I've come out after a long time."

But Ju Nian stopped and didn't come any closer. Han Shu's appearance at this time can be said to be an accident, or not an accident.The reason for saying such contradictory words is because since the two of them reunited, he has always been haunted.But today's day is special, even if he had a thousand guts, he would not dare to abandon his parents and run to her to mess around during the annual reunion dinner, not to mention he just left in front of her a day ago.

Seeing that she was not moving, Han Shu couldn't bear it any longer, and complained angrily, "Have you taken the Dingshen pill? Open the door for me, your clothes are almost soaked."

He took it for granted, like a late husband, but Ju Nian easily broke the intimacy that satisfied him.She was holding an umbrella, and the rain made the distance between them seem further apart.

"What's the matter with you?" She asked very carefully.

Han Shu stamped his feet, "Do you have to talk to me through this broken iron door? Isn't this the way to welcome guests?" Even with a hand on top of his head, his hair was still basically soaked, with strands sticking to it. In front of the forehead, it looks very embarrassed.

Ju Nian said: "Today is not a day to entertain guests. It's Chinese New Year, what are you doing here, stop making trouble, go back."

Han Shu seemed to be in a hurry, he grabbed the iron door with one hand and shook it, "Can you let me in, it's not a joke to rain on your body." He wiped the rainwater from his face, knuckles Pale and bluish, thinking about it, it was really cold. As soon as he finished speaking, he shivered appropriately, and sneezed sideways.

Ju Nian hesitated for a while, her compassion seemed to soften her attitude of refusing to keep others thousands of miles away, she stepped forward a few steps, and separated him by a door.

Han Shu's rising expectations were quickly extinguished. When he saw Ju Nian stretching out his hand, he mistakenly thought that she was going to open the door, but she put away the umbrella in her hand and wanted to slip it through the gap in the iron door for him, " Take the umbrella, you put me in Dr. Sun's office, I... I went in first, you should hurry home and eat."
