Mother's life has been rough,
who have suffered so much from poverty,
The 80th Anniversary Celebration Day,
From then on, he would lead a new life.
On the last day of 1992, the weather was clear, cloudless, cold, and biting.
12. 31 days. Zi Peng and Li Xia met up with each other in New Station at 9.30 a.m. according to the appointed time.
Except for the white world of silver in the sky, everything else was the same as usual: the cars on the streets flowed like a river, except that the gray smoke coming from the rear of the cars was much thicker and thicker than in the summer, which was mainly due to the cold weather; people were hurrying back and forth on the sidewalks. They wore thick, multicolored cotton clothing; the commercial and service agencies on both sides of the street were busy; and under the New Station Bridge was a natural ice-skating rink. A group of young boys and girls were happily skating: some of them were skilled in movement, some of them were in middle level, some were studying, some were in their teens playing with ice cubes and peas with great interest, and the number of tourists on the opposite side of Mount Yuhuang was much less than in the Spring, Summer and Autumn seasons.
The date between Zi Peng and Lisha was a very memorable one. Because he was about to take up his position in the working class, his last date with her in the countryside, his last date at the end of the year. He had a date with her twice a month this year, except this one. Thus, on the last day of the month, they made up for the absence of this month. Therefore, this date is especially important.
After meeting with Zi Peng and Lisha, their happiness was indescribable. Everyone had a smile on their faces; everyone's eyebrows were filled with joy. He crossed a road with her and turned onto the embankment of the river.
This 10 li of riverbank was the only path that he and she had to take to reach the City. Whether it was spring, summer, autumn or winter; whether it was winter, summer or summer; whether it was in the rain or in the wind. Anyone who came to the City would have a heart-to-heart talk on the embankment of the river, and a handshake and hug on the embankment of the river …
After climbing onto the riverbank, Lixia held onto Zi Peng's arm. He looked at her with deep affection and said,
”Sister, I came to your house on the 23rd. I wrote a note to ask you out. But your husband is home, and I can't give you the note. Finally I threw the note at the kang, at your side. But you didn't notice, you didn't feel anything at all. I was very worried that your husband would see it and it would be terrible if he did. At that moment, he turned to look for the board. Thanks to my quick reaction, he asked me to retrieve the piece of paper and hold it in my hand. That day, when I left, this note never got the chance to give it to you. So I went back to your house on the 28th. On that day, the cold wind was bone-chilling, and the weather was extremely cold. In order to meet you for a walk, I once again stepped onto the icy road that leads to your house. ”When we arrived at your house, it was fortunate that you were home that we had our date today.”
When she heard Zi Peng say that he wanted to throw a note at kang, she was very surprised. She hadn't thought of that at all. So she said,
”Brother, when you came to my house on the 23rd, I really didn't see you throwing a note at me at the kang. If I saw it, would I not have picked it up? ”No matter how stupid I am, I can't be that stupid.”
Zi Peng looked at the shocked expression on Lixia's face. He was sure that she hadn't found the slip of paper. So he explained to her:
”Sis, I think I will ask you to come out for a walk after I finish my test on the 24th. There are still seven days left until the end of the month. If there was a chance, I could stay in another inn, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to do what I wanted. ”
Hearing Zi Peng's words, she felt very regretful. She looked at his face and blamed herself
”Bro, it's all my fault, I was so careless. Why didn't I think of that? ”
Zi Peng could not bear to see Lixia still blaming herself for the note. So he took her cold hand and comforted her:
”Sister, everything is over. It's too late.” It would be nice if we could come out today and have a walk together. ”
Hearing Zi Peng's comforting words, her mood improved a lot. She changed the topic and said:
”Brother, the night of November 27th was simply wonderful. I went home and dreamed about that night. ”
Zi Peng also felt the same way when he heard this question from Lixia. Thus, he agreed with her and said:
”Sister, we've been in love for 6 years and we've stayed in an inn twice. It's not easy for you and me. We fell in love once, so it can be said that we didn't love each other for nothing. Finally, we had two whole nights of married life. ”
Liza was in a very good mood, especially on the night of November 27th when she stayed at the hotel. It was unforgettable for her. But she also had a vague worry. She put her head on his shoulder and whispered like a bird,
”Brother, you're too nice to me, I'm really afraid of losing you. I'm afraid you abandoned me after you became a worker. Although we do not know the reason for our love, but we love the truth; but we love life and death; but we love as if we were drunk. ”
When Zi Peng heard what Lixia said, he felt that her worries were not without reason. But he must not abandon her. He stroked her hair. and comforted her by saying,
”Sister, don't worry. I'm not that kind of person. I don't love you enough, and I don't kiss you enough, so why would I abandon you? What I'm worried about is that you might abandon me. ”
Hearing Zi Peng's words, Lixia's heart finally calmed down. She met his eager gaze and said sincerely:
”Brother, little sister is a woman with a conscience. The only possibility is for you to abandon me. If little sister really doesn't have an elder brother, I won't be able to live. It was you who set up a protective umbrella for me, allowing my life to be interesting, allowing my life to be colorful. ”
At this moment, a young couple walked over from the opposite direction. They were extremely envious of their intimate actions. After walking over, he even turned his head back, causing the two of them to feel a little embarrassed. After the young couple walked over, Zi Peng changed the topic and said,
”Sister, it's New Year's Day and I have to go to Tonggang to work. I am assigned to the Enterprise's Second cement factory. I don't know the exact work, but you can tell me when you get there. ”
Lixia looked at Zi Peng's handsome face with admiration and said truthfully,
”Brother, no matter where you go, you won't be able to put in a lot of effort. Leaders will always value you greatly.”
Zi Peng felt his heart warm up when he heard what Li Xia said. He put his arm around her shoulders and said confidently,
”Thank you, little sister, for your praise. No matter what job I do, I am confident that I can do it.”
Lixia was very envious of Zi Peng being a worker in Tonggang, she also believed that no matter what job he did, he would always be able to do it well. After hearing his distribution, she asked curiously,
”Brother, which unit are my three nieces assigned to?”
Hearing this question, Zi Peng looked at her curious expression and replied,
