Ming Road

Chapter 12

Gu Wushuang was stunned for a long time, then frantically dialed back, and the music on the other end of the phone was picked up as soon as it rang.

However, the two of them were relatively speechless, and remained silent for a while.

Finally, Tang Zhi's voice came from the opposite side, a little hoarse and unusual, "...are you here?"

Gu Wushuang rubbed his head and rolled on the bed, "I'm here early, at my uncle's house."

"Oh." Tang Zhi replied dryly, adding, "That's good." Then he hung up the phone.

Gu Wushuang was puzzled, and foolishly thought that he had a lot to say to Tang Zhi before going to bed last night, but the phone was hung up before the words could be spoken.

This made him really depressed.

But he didn't feel depressed for a while, Shen Yue knocked on the door and came in, walked over and knocked on his forehead, "I haven't woken up yet, it's almost Chinese New Year, and there are still many things to do today."

Before leaving the house, Gu Wushuang suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Tang Zhi made so many phone calls, is it because he got off the plane but didn't report his safety.

This is just wild thinking, maybe it's some kind of self-indulgence.Gu Wushuang temporarily put this matter aside, and accompanied Shen Yue to visit all the elders of the Gu family.There are many Gu family members, and there are many elders. Although Gu Ningyuan is in power now, as a junior, he should have sent someone to visit. In the past, it was the housekeeper Chen Bo.However, ever since Gu Ningyuan officially confirmed Shen Yue's identity at the family banquet, all these matters have been handed over to Shen Yue. He has done a good job and is impeccable in everything he does. No one can gossip.If Gu Wushuang was here, Shen Yue would always take him with him, letting him meet the old man at home was also a plan for the future.

Gu Wushuang followed Shen Yue outside for two days, walked Dong Lin all over the place, his tired legs were weak.On the day of New Year's Eve, Gu Sui and Du Qiu took him to the big house of his grandfather's house. They had many children and grandchildren, and they were a lively family. There were boys and girls around 20 years old everywhere. Even if the Gu family wasn't rich, At least they are wealthy.These children chirped and showed off their lives or property, but Gu Wushuang didn't know anyone inside.

Du Qiu saw him playing with his mobile phone alone in the living room and asked, "Why don't you go play with the kids at home? Isn't it boring to be alone?"

Gu Wushuang shook his head and whispered, "I don't want to go, I have to wait for uncle."

Du Qiu is a career-oriented woman. She never cared about Gu Wushuang since she was a child, so she didn't know that he was once bullied by these children because of his innocence.For those children who have grown up, it may be a slightly excessive childhood game in retrospect, but it is different for Gu Wushuang.It would be too boring to play with them now without any grievances.

After dinner, it was time to give out the New Year's money. Gu Wushuang's family had a lot of relatives, and they were not very happy when they received the red envelopes.

Gu Sui patted Gu Wushuang's head, frowning frowning at the corners of his eyes when he smiled, "You are one year older again. Stop being so stupid and learn how to behave with your uncle." He only had Such a child, but because he is busy with his career, he has no time to discipline him, so he almost entrusted it to Shen Yue and Gu Ningyuan. Hello. If you like it but still can't catch it, you will regret it later, so don't complain to your uncle."

Gu Wushuang blinked, and Bai Shengsheng's face was flushed with a thin layer of red, as if he was a bit shy, "I know..."

Gu Sui knew his character, and he was still a fool when he grew up, so he stuffed the red envelope into his hand, "Okay, don't be shy, go and play by yourself."

Gu Wushuang patted his face, and the blush finally disappeared.He blushed not because he was shy, but when Gu Sui said he liked the girl just now, a person flashed in front of his eyes.

It was Tang Zhi's face.

But the thought was only fleeting, and it was forgotten in an instant.

Gu Sui didn't say much about him, Gu Wushuang was already so old, and further education would be of no use, so he turned around and had a subtle love affair with his wife Du Qiu.

The Spring Festival Gala was played on the high-hanging TV in the living room, and the host's festive voice blended with the laughter of the whole house.They have to stay here to finish the New Year's Eve, kowtow, and then go home after twelve o'clock in the morning.Gu Wushuang didn't want to have fun with them, so he took a plate of freshly fried sugar and oil fruits, went to the second floor to find a small cubicle with a good view, and asked for a rubber band.

After a while, probably Shen Yue and Gu Ningyuan had finished their New Year's Eve dinner, and before proceeding to the next activity that is not suitable for children, they finally took some time to care for the lonely little fool Gu Wushuang.

Gu Wushuang took a photo of himself, in which he ate alone with a mouth full of glistening oil, a small half plate of sugar oil and fruit, a stack of unopened red envelopes and a pile of unopened red envelopes, the bright hundred yuan Mao Zedong It was tied up with a small rubber band and set aside.

Shen Yue:?

Gu Wushuang: I have nothing to do when I'm free, counting money...

Shen Yue: Then your parents?

Gu Wushuang: [tears] [tears] [tears] They went to play and are enjoying the sunset love.

Shen Yue: Poor little girl, I will take you over after the New Year's Eve dinner next year.

Gu Wushuang glanced at the time, and replied knowingly: It's okay, happy new year, uncle!You go and play, I still have more than half of the red envelopes unopened.

Shen Yue: Then you open the red envelopes first.I'll pack another big red envelope for you tomorrow to make it more interesting for you to count.

Then he quickly said goodbye, logged off, and disappeared without a trace.

Just as Gu Wushuang was about to sigh, he felt that the New Year's sigh was not good, so he held it back abruptly.

My uncle probably went to enjoy Chaoyanglian.What are you doing? ? ?

Or count the money to play.

Gu Wushuang became sleepy after counting, and yawned lazily. He was stuck in this half-asleep and half-awake state, and he didn't know how long it had passed, as if his legs fell down suddenly, and he shivered. Totally lost sleepiness.

When I woke up, my legs were numb and I couldn't move.

Gu Wushuang wanted to sigh even more, but he held back.He was afraid that if he followed the old man's words, the bad luck of New Year's Eve would carry over to the whole next year.Everyone is so happy tonight, and next year must be sweet, he doesn't want to moan and sigh for a whole year.

At 11:30, the downstairs was obviously busy, and it was time to prepare dumplings.The new year always starts with eating dumplings.

After Gu Wushuang counted all the red envelopes, Mao Zedong, the local tyrant, tied up a stack, which was a bit too conspicuous, and planned to find a piece of paper to wrap it into a brick and carry it home.Before he could find the paper, the phone rang first.

Gu Wushuang took out the phone from his pocket, saw the number displayed on it, and remembered what he had just said with Gu Sui, shook his head vigorously, took a deep breath before pressing the answer button.

"Hello, Brother Tang."

"Wushuang, what are you doing?" Tang Zhi's deep voice came from the other end. It was just a very common sentence, but it scratched Gu Wushuang's heart like a small brush. uncomfortable.

Gu Wushuang was restless, his face was red and his heart was beating, so he jumped to the edge of the window, pulled out the latch, and while the cold wind was blowing, he talked to Tang Zhi on the phone.

He thought about it for a while, and finally couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Brother Tang, is the New Year's Eve dinner delicious?"

Tang Zhi smiled lightly, he is a rare person to smile, not to mention the voice that can be heard on the phone, "It's delicious." But he didn't mention to thank Gu Wushuang.

Gu Wushuang let go of his heart slowly, and said joyfully, "It's good if you like it."

Before returning, when the two of them were chatting, Gu Wushuang asked a lot of miscellaneous questions, only to realize that there was no one in Tang Zhi's house, and he didn't go home for the New Year. He spent New Year's Eve watching things on the construction site, and it was said that the salary was very high.Gu Wushuang was a little sad when he heard that, so he kept this matter in his heart, and secretly ordered takeaway New Year's Eve dinner for him.He judges others by himself, and feels that if there is no one to accompany him, then at least having good food to accompany him would be much better.

Probably because of New Year's Eve, Tang Zhi was not as silent as usual.Gu Wushuang is also a little sad today. Those words that he didn’t say because he didn’t want to disturb his family, the bad memories of his childhood, and the disgusting feeling of seeing those who bullied him, all spit it out to Tang Zhi, and he seemed to be much happier .

Tang Zhi suggested to him seriously, "Then you don't come here again."

Gu Wushuang was a little distressed, "Isn't that very capricious?"

"For a child like you, it's okay to be willful. Your parents and uncle will definitely hope that you can have a happy New Year's Eve." Tang Zhi paused, and seemed to be dumb without saying a word, "They all I love you so much, and I can't bear to let you be sad."

Gu Wushuang was startled, and hummed.

The two of them didn't speak anymore, but they held the microphone between their lips and noses as if they had agreed, and listened to each other's breathing through the radio.

Suddenly, a bell rang downstairs, and it struck a full twelve times. This is the bell of the New Year, and the new year has come.

Tang Zhi suddenly said, "Happy New Year, Fat Shuang'er."

Fireworks were lit outside, and the smell of gunpowder wafted into the air. The loud noise almost drowned out the blessing on the phone, but it was strange that Gu Wushuang could hear it clearly.

He said: Fat twins.

In an instant, it was red from the tips of the ears to the base of the neck, as if a big mouthful of melted sugar water had been stuffed into his mouth, it was so sweet that he couldn't breathe.Gu Wushuang tried hard to calm himself down, but in the end he stammered and said, "Tang, brother Tang, yes, happy new year!"

He is no longer afraid of sighing in the new year, but he is a little worried about whether too sweet will spoil his teeth.
