C112 (1/2)
The cold air was born at the end of the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Thick ice formed on the asphalt;
Walking along the banks of the river,
Their feelings were as deep as the heart of the sea.
January 5th was the first Sunday after New Year's Day. It was freezing cold and freezing cold. The temperature reached -30 degrees Celsius. There was a red sun in the sky, emitting a little heat in a listless manner; there were a few faint white clouds in the sky, moving towards the southeast; and in the busy city, there was an endless stream of people and carriages …
At 9 in the morning, Zi Peng and Li Xia met up on time at New Station's usual place. It was the 28th of last month, and he went to see her. Because there were so many people in her family, her big sister and her nephew were here. Therefore, he had no opportunity to be alone with her; no opportunity to speak to her alone; no opportunity to shake her hand and hug her. Therefore, he could only write her a piece of paper and ask to meet her at City on the Sunday after New Year's Day.
After Zipeng and Lixia left for Evergreen on December 3, they saw her again on December 4. That day was Liang Shouquan's forty-fifth birthday, so he went to give Liang a birthday. At the Liang house, she helped with the cooking in the kitchen.
After lunch, Lixia invited Zi Peng to her house, which he happily agreed to. So he came to her house to play chess with her husband. She poured water for him, offered him cigarettes, and brought him melon seed. She treated him very well. Therefore, he thought: I should take advantage of today's birthday opportunity for Liang Shouquan to spend the night here and return home the next morning. After making up his mind, he ate the melon seed and drank tea as he played chess.
After dinner, Zi Peng, Lixia, Gui Hong and Liang Shouquan played poker in her house. Zi Peng and Lixia sat across from each other, and from time to time, she would stare at him with her large eyes that were as gentle as water. Every time he looked, his heart would be filled with waves of deep emotions. Every time he looked, the blood in his heart would flow faster. Every time he looked, his face would be filled with joy.
They called from 7 p. m. to 12 p. m. Then, he began to play mahjong again. Her nephew Meng Qingjun took her place while she was playing mahjong. Lixia sat on the kang next to Zi Peng. They kept playing until 5 AM in the morning, while Lixia stayed by Zi Peng's side until 5 AM. He hadn't slept at all that night, but he hadn't slept with her at all …
On the 22nd of December, Zi Peng went to visit Lixia, but she was not at home today. This disappointed him because he had not seen her for 18 days. These 18 days, although not too long, were like half a century for him.
Thus, on December 28th, Zi Peng went to visit Lixia again. Although he had seen her this time, there were many relatives in her family that prevented him from getting close to her. As a result, he wrote a note and gave it to her, thus giving her today's appointment …
Today, Zi Peng and Lixia had come at the right time; today, they had met each other with great excitement; today, their faces were filled with smiles. Thus, they crossed a road and arrived at the embankment of the river.
The embankment of the river was now covered with snow. In the middle of the embankment was a road that was as smooth and transparent as a mirror that had been run over by a car. If one was not careful when walking, one would fall head and shoulders on top of it; on the river, many children and youths were skating; on the opposite side of the Mount Yuhuang, pine, cypress, and broad-leaved trees were mixed together, and a thick layer of trees hung from the branches. Under the rays of the sun, it shines...
After reaching the riverbank, Zi Peng held Lixia's frozen hands and said affectionately:
”Sister, you really think too much of your brother these past few days.” After Liang Shouquan's birthday, he played poker with his mahjong at your house for an entire day and night. I was so happy that day, and I was still awake at dawn. You have always been by my side, making me feel very warm, very comfortable, very happy. ”
Lixia took Zi Peng's arm and excitedly said:
”Brother, that day, I was happier than anyone else. I didn't expect you to stay at my house all night. ”
Zi Peng looked at the limpid, talkative eyes of Lixia and was extremely excited. He recalled saying:
”After that day, I came to see you twice, once when you weren't at home, and once when you had a lot of guests at your house. I missed you so much that I couldn't ease your mood. That's why I invited you to meet me in City today. ”
Due to the cold weather, Lixia's face was dyed with two pieces of very nice red.
She looked at him with twinkling eyes and said earnestly:
”Brother, I also especially missed you because two sisters and two nephews came to my house, so I can't go out and look for you. ”Therefore, I miss you very much in my heart; therefore, I am very concerned about you in my heart; therefore, I would very much like to walk with you for a while and speak my mind.”
Zi Peng was infected by Lixia's agitated emotions. At this moment, he thought of the scene when he went with her to Evergreen. He said softly:
”Sis, I recalled the scene on December 3rd at home and I felt particularly meaningful. I felt especially good and unforgettable.”
”Brother, it's me too. Although we walked so far that day, I don't feel tired at all. ”When I returned home, I was overjoyed just thinking about it.” As she spoke, she stroked Zi Peng's hair with her hand and then looked at him with her big, tender eyes. It made his heart feel warm and happy. After looking at each other for a while, he looked in and continued:
”Little Sister, that day will leave behind beautiful memories in my life, and they will forever be engraved in my heart.”
Lixia looked at Zi Peng's blissful expression and asked,
”Brother, were you satisfied that day?”
When Zi Peng heard Lixia ask him this question, he felt a sweet feeling in his heart. He recalled the scene and said,
”My good sister, that day, I was very satisfied. I've been with you all day, from eight in the morning to seven in the evening, 11 hours apart. Tell me, can I not be satisfied? Also, at your sister's house, you cooked so many dishes and drank so much wine for us. Tell me, can I not be satisfied? On the way back with you, I held your hand, you took my arm, they hugged and kissed each other. ”Tell me, can I not be satisfied?”
Hearing Zi Peng's words, Lixia felt her heart heat up. She looked at him with affectionate eyes and murmured
”Brother, that night, I lay on the kang, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. I wish you were my husband! ”
Zi Peng's heart couldn't help but beat even faster when he saw the excitement in Lixia's heart. He couldn't help but kiss her on the cheek, emotionally saying:
”Sister, although I am not your husband, my love for you, my love for you, and my longing for you have already surpassed your husband. Think of me as your husband from now on. ”
Lixia's eyes looked at Zi Peng without blinking, and she said a little bashfully:
”Brother, I think so too. ”You see, everything I've done to you, I've treated you as my husband.”
Zi Peng looked at Lixia's beautiful face and said,
”Little sister, actually, I have long since treated you as my wife. Since April 28, 88; since our first sexual relationship; you've been my wife. Although we are not legitimate, we are real; we are genuine; we are irrefutable facts. ”
Listening to Zi Peng's words, she felt extremely blissful. She put her head on his shoulder and said sincerely:
”Since Big Bro thinks so, then I shall be your de facto wife. Even so, I feel honored; even so, I feel proud; even so, I feel exhilarated; even so, I feel infinitely happy. ”
Zi Peng felt that it was too cold today. Lixia trembled a little due to the cold. He said in concern,
”Sis, it's so cold today! You don't wear much, and I'm really worried about you. Come on, let's go to a movie first. It's quite warm in the cinema. Protecting the body is our main asset. ”
When Lucia heard Zipeng say that he wanted to go to the movies with her, she was also very willing. She agreed:
