MTL - The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine-Chapter 60 new year.

Xie Shi'an did not go to the national team in the end.

The day after the group returned to Jiangcheng City was New Year's Eve.

It was rare that he didn't have to get up early for training. Xie Shi'an slept until noon. When he opened the curtains, his mother's car was parked downstairs.

The woman stood outside the car with a phone in her hand. Seeing her poking her head out, she smiled and waved to her.

"Shi'an, let's go home for the New Year."

Qiao Yuchu glanced down, patted her on the shoulder and said.

"Go, I haven't been home for many years."

When Xie Shi'an dragged his suitcase and walked out.

The plane from Haikou to Jiangcheng also landed.

Cheng Zhen saw his father in the crowd at a glance, and ran over bouncingly.

"Dad, I'm back!"

Father Cheng patted him on the shoulder vigorously and smiled.

"Okay, not bad, I've grown taller and stronger, let's go, go home, your mother got up early in the morning and made a big table of dishes, all of which you like to eat."

The two walked to the parking lot, Cheng Zhen opened the trunk, put the luggage in, and found something was wrong when he got into the car.

"Dad, did you change the car?"

Cheng's father smiled and turned the steering wheel with a healthy expression.

"Hey, although the Audi used to be good, it was still a bit too high-profile to drive to the company. It would have a bad influence on the employees below. Anyway, the public can drive it, it's just a means of transportation."

Cheng Zhen didn't think much about it.

"Dad, can you lend me your car? I want to play with Shi'an and the others at night."

Cheng's father readily agreed.

"Okay, but there's only one thing allowed, don't drink while driving, don't drive after drinking, do you hear me?"

Cheng Zhen nodded repeatedly.

"I know, I know, it's really long-winded."

It was rare for Cheng Zhen to go home, and the training had achieved results again. Cheng's father was relieved and said as soon as he was happy.

"By the way, son, do you have any money to go out to play?"

"Wow! Dad, you are so clever! How do you know that I have no money to spend?"

Cheng's father smiled and continued to drive.

"I'm your father. I don't know about your extravagance. The wallet is under there. Take as much as you want."

Before he set off, he made a special trip to the bank to withdraw some cash, and his wallet was stuffed to the brim.

Cheng Zhen picked it up and muttered.

"Dad, you used to give me the bank card directly."

"Do you want love, don't give it back to me, you swipe that bank card, don't let your mother know, this is all your father's private money!"

Cheng Zhen was afraid that he would go back on his word, so he quickly took out a stack of notes from his wallet and put them in his pocket.

"If you want to, it's better for you to treat me well."

＊＊＊

Since her mother remarried, Xie Shi'an rarely set foot here, and the only few times left a deep shadow on her.

She stood at the elevator door and hesitated for a moment.

Mom pulled her in.

"Why are you standing there, hurry up."

Her hand was still in her arms. She didn't know when Xie Shi'an became unaccustomed to her mother's contact.

She froze until she heard a ding dong, the elevator door opened, and her mother let her go and knocked on the door.

Xie Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly followed.

"Yuyou, open the door quickly, mom is back."

The little girl ran over with her slippers on, opened the door, threw herself into her mother's arms, and looked at her strangely and curiously.

Mother Xie hugged her and said with a smile.

"Yuyou, call me sister."

The little girl let go of her mother, and stood timidly, with a defensive look on her face, and she just looked at her without calling anyone.

Yoyo's father came over and pulled him away.

"Come on, Yoyo, let's watch TV with Dad."

Xie Shi'an stood here like a transparent person, and it was her mother who brought her luggage in.

"Go and sit on the sofa, the meal will be ready soon."

When mother was preparing to cook, Yoyo ran into the kitchen again, playfully flipping through the plastic bag she put on the cooking table.

"Mom, I want a snack."

"Yuyou, my mother bought a lot of vegetables today, including fish, shrimp, and Yoyo's favorite big chicken drumsticks. I won't eat snacks anymore, how about eating later?"

"I don't care, mom, I want to eat snacks." The girl acted coquettishly, the woman had no choice but to take two bottles of yogurt from the refrigerator for her.

"Go get my sister a bottle."

Yoyo ran out with the yogurt and sat next to her father.

"Dad, open it for me."

The man stuck the straws in both bottles of yogurt.

"Yuyou drink it by yourself, don't give it to others."

There was a cartoon on the TV, and Yoyo was running around on the sofa wearing shoes, while Yoyo's father got up and went to the kitchen, and closed the sliding door casually, with only a crack showing.

Xie Shi'an could hear it vaguely.

"Didn't you agree that it's only New Year's Eve? Why did you even bring the suitcase here? How can we have a place to live?"

"Shi'an will only be on vacation for two days. She and I will sleep in Yoyo's room, and you and Yoyo will sleep in the master bedroom. Let's make do."

"Yuyou is used to sleeping alone, it's not like you don't know."

Men complain.

"And for those who celebrate the New Year, it's fine to be empty-handed. Who do you see coming to pay New Year's greetings with a cold face?"

The sound of the spatula grew louder.

"All right, all these years, she hasn't been here a few times in total, so you can just say a few words less."

Xie Shi'an was absorbed in listening, and didn't notice that Yoyo had already run towards her, stepped on her leg, and was about to slide off the sofa.

Xie Shi'an quickly helped him up.

It happened that the man came out of the kitchen. Seeing this scene, he walked over quickly, hugged him down, and glared at her a few times.

"What are you doing! You are such an adult, don't you know how to let my sister go over and sit?"

Youyou pursed her mouth and was about to cry.

"dad…"

"It's okay, come on Yoyo, let's go play a game."

Yoyo's father sat around on the sofa and played games.

Xie Shi'an left a dirty footprint on the new trousers he just changed today, and the place where he stepped on it also hurts.

She stared at it for a long time, then got up and walked to the kitchen.

"Mom, let me help you."

Thank you mother for waving your hands again and again.

"It's okay, no need, it's rare for you to come here, go and sit down, the food will be ready soon."

The meals are served.

Fish, shrimp and crab meat are all available.

Xie Shi'an hasn't eaten her mother's dishes for many years. As soon as she picked up the chopsticks, her mother picked up a piece of braised pork for her.

"Come on, try my mother's handicrafts, your favorite food when you were young."

Xie Shi'an was taken aback, and did not move his chopsticks for a long time.

Thanks mom for looking at her expression.

"What's the matter, don't you like to eat?"

"No, we won't let you eat this."

Because it is necessary to be ready for stimulant/drug testing at any time, and because of artificial breeding, the pork on the market will more or less have some hormones or lean meat/preserved residues, and the canteen of the provincial team is also mostly chicken, duck, fish and beef. Xie Shi'an also developed the habit of not eating pork.

Xie mother suddenly realized.

"Oh, yes, you are an athlete now, come on, if you don't eat pork, you can eat something else, try braised prawns."

Yoyo's father put down his chopsticks carefully.

"Parents can eat whatever they put in. There are so many rules. This is not the Maritime team, it's your home."

"Oh, it's just a piece of meat, eat and eat, Yoyo, bring the drink to mom."

Mama Xie smoothed things over, poured a glass of juice for each of them, took a sip from her own glass, then set her sights on Xie Shi'an's glass sitting next to her, bowed her head and took a sip without waiting for anyone to stop her, feeling uncomfortable It tasted good and I vomited it out again.

"Yuyou! How could you spit in sister's cup!" Mama Xie was shocked and picked her up.

"The child didn't do it on purpose, why are you arguing!" Yoyo's father also dropped his chopsticks and said loudly.

Xie Shi'an sat here with no appetite.

She put down her chopsticks and stood up, walking towards the door.

Xie mother chased after two steps.

"Hey, Shi'an, where are you going so late?"

Xie Shi'an supported the door frame to put on his shoes.

"Back to the training base."

Yoyo's father also stood up and said.

"Let her go, let her go! Isn't it just a drink?! Such an adult, why is he so narrow-minded? Let me tell you, if you leave this door today, you will never come back again!"

Xie Shi'an stopped, straightened up, with a mocking smile on his lips, and slowly walked towards him.

She stood up, taller than the man.

A strong sense of oppression came oncoming, the man was full of vigilance, and he took a step back unconsciously.

"You... what are you going to do?"

"I want you to clarify one thing. This is your home, not mine. If it wasn't for my mother's sake, you thought I would come here. Also, what are you? Yin and Yang are strange, pointing fingers, do I have a half-money relationship with you?"

"What right do you have to say no to me? If you think I'm still at the mercy of others as I was when I was a child, then you're wrong. "

Xie Shi'an picked up the glass on the table and waved his hand fiercely.

Mother Xie was shocked and rushed over to stop her.

"Shi'an, don't!"

It was too late.

"Also, I'm so narrow-minded, I don't want to throw away the things that others have touched. If you are not narrow-minded, then drink it!"

Broken porcelain was all over the floor, and the drink was spilled all over the man.

Yoyo was so frightened that she burst into tears.

In the mess, Xie Shi'an dragged his suitcase, slammed the door and left, letting the man behind him jump into a rage.

The woman's mournful cry came out.

"I beg you all, stop making trouble, and give me a way to survive the New Year's Eve!"

Xie Shi'an pressed the elevator, and not long after he walked out of the unit door, a woman in a thin sweater and slippers chased her down.

"Shi'an, Shi'an, you are obedient! Go back and confess your mistake to your uncle, he will definitely accept you!"

Hearing this, Xie Shi'an turned around abruptly.

"I admit my mistake? Why should I admit my mistake to him? What's wrong with me!"

Mother Xie looked at her in disbelief, and suddenly felt that her daughter was a little strange.

"Shi'an, how well-behaved, sensible, and obedient you were when you were a child, how come you have become like this now, can your elders tell you that you can't do a word or two?! Today's New Year's Eve, can you consider your mother's feelings?"

"Mom also made a lot of efforts to persuade your uncle to let you go home for the New Year. Just these few days, bear with me, let's..."

Mother Xie stepped forward, gently held her hand, and begged with tears in her eyes.

"Let's have a good reunion year, shall we?"

Xie Shi'an looked at her coldly, unable to tell what was going on in his heart, numb for a while, and then dull pain again.

"I consider you, his feelings, and my nominal sister's feelings, so who will consider my feelings!"

"I was only six years old when my grandpa passed away. My dad took the money and ran away. You can't get any money, so you ran away too, right there—"

Xie Shi'an reached out and pointed to the door of the unit behind her.

"It's right there, in the winter, I waited for you all night! What about you, you are engaged to that man, have you even seen me?! In the end, the neighbors couldn't stand it and called the police, and the police sent me to the police. When we got to my dad's side, my dad threw me 20 yuan and let me go, and told me not to delay him playing mahjong."

"You know what I feel like myself? I feel like I'm being kicked around like a football."

"No one wants me, and everyone thinks I'm a burden. Then you gave birth to me, what are you doing, what are you doing!"

While speaking, the young man tried his best to suppress the choking from deep in his throat, but tears still flowed down his face.

Xie's mother also covered her mouth and cried, and came forward to hug her.

"I'm sorry, Shi'an, I'm sorry, mom had nothing to do at that time, your dad took away all the money in the family, and you still have debts, mom has to live, she didn't abandon you on purpose, mom thought, wait until the family situation is better, I'll pick you up again..."

Before the words fell, Xie Shi'an pushed the person away.

"Don't touch me! You brought me into this world. I'm not wrong, and I don't owe any of you. If you say I've changed, then I've become like this. Who caused it? Don't you know? ?"

"If I'm still the same as before, I'll believe whatever you say, and I don't know where I died!"

Xie Shi'an stepped back and walked away step by step.

"That's it, you are a family of three, and I, since my grandfather passed away, I have no home."

"Please don't bother me again in the future. I'm an adult and I can live my life well."

After she finished speaking, she resolutely turned around and left. The moment she turned around, all the suppressed grievances and tears poured down.

After Yoyo's father chased him out, Xie's mother didn't chase after him, but buried herself in his arms and sobbed.

"Let's go, I told you, she won't come back, Yoyo is still waiting for us at home."

In the dark, the two went upstairs together hand in hand.

Xie Shi'an dragged his suitcase, walked a few steps in the community, and suddenly began to run wildly.

The north wind was blowing, making her face ache, as if as long as she ran faster, the past sufferings would never catch up with her.

She ran wildly all the way, and ran out of the gate of the community.

A Volkswagen parked under a street lamp.

The window of the car rolled down, revealing the bright smile of the young man.

Jian Changnian: "Let's go back to the training base and let's celebrate the New Year together."

Xie Shi'an grabbed the suitcase and froze in place. He had suppressed his tears, but his nose started to sore again.

Qiao Yuchu saw her strange expression from a distance, opened the car door and got out of the car, walked over and patted her head.

"Let's go, go back to eat the New Year's Eve dinner, Coach Yan is still waiting for us."

The boy slightly bent his lips, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his cuff.

"it is good."

Cheng Zhen also got out of the car and helped her put her luggage into the trunk.

"Oh, that certain person is really embarrassing. As soon as I arrived in Jiangcheng City, I was about to be pulled as a coolie before my **** was hot."

Qiao Yuchu glared at him.

"I don't know who it is. If you don't go back to your home for the New Year, you insist on coming to our place to join in the fun. Why don't you use the ready-made coolies?"

Xie Shi'an sat in the car, her hands and feet were already numb from the cold, and the heating in the car was sufficient, so she felt a long-lost warmth.

"Why are you here?"

Jian Changnian sat aside a little to make room for her.

"Grandma was discharged from the hospital today, but there is no bus to go back to the village. I just wanted her to spend the night with me in our dormitory. Coach Yan just said that we would have hot pot together for the New Year's Eve dinner. Sister Yuchu and I brought Cheng Zhen together. When I went out to buy vegetables, Zhou Mu didn't go home and was with my grandmother at the training base, helping Coach Yan make dumplings."

Qiao Yuchu fastened her seat belt, then turned around and said.

"I'm about to go back after buying groceries. I happened to be passing by here, so I thought, should I ask you if you still eat? I was just about to call you when you came out."

Cheng Zhen turned around and smiled.

"I also bought a lot of fireworks. After dinner, we will go and set them off."

No one asked her what happened here, why she dragged her luggage and left home late at night, she didn't care about every word, but she didn't care about every word.

The blood that had already cooled down all over the boy's body warmed up bit by bit.

"Orange juice, hurry up, I'm going to starve to death."

"I know, I know, no matter how fast I am, I will be speeding!!"

＊＊＊

When the group returned to the training base, they were still in the dormitory assigned to him by the unit. Yan Xinyuan wore an apron and was frying the hot pot bottoms. Coach Liang helped him wash and choose vegetables.

Grandma and Zhou Mu were sitting in the living room rolling bread and dumplings.

Seeing someone enter the door, Zhou Mu stood up immediately.

"You are back!"

Coach Liang also rushed out after hearing the sound, and took the things in their hands.

"You guys are back, hurry up, I'm waiting for your dishes to be cooked."

Jian Changnian ran over and squeezed grandma's shoulder.

"Grandma, are you tired?"

Grandma smiled and squeezed the dumplings in her hand.

"It's not tiring, it's not tiring to make a few dumplings."

"Chang Nian, look, why is grandma's bag so beautiful, but mine is so ugly?"

Jian Changnian looked at the dumplings on the chopping board, and almost burst out laughing. The dumplings made by grandma had edges and corners, each one was like big ingots, Zhou Mu's, wontons were not like wontons, and buns were not like buns.

"Hahahahahaha, you better stop wasting ingredients!"

Zhou Mu rushed over to tickle her angrily.

Seeing this, grandma laughed from ear to ear.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble, your teammate is pasting the window grilles, you can also go over and help, come on, Mu Mu, pinch here first, then pinch here, with the index finger lightly like this, the dumpling will be formed. "

Jian Changnian ran over to help Qiao Yuchu put on the window grilles.

"A little higher, a little higher."

Qiao Yuchu stood at the bottom to direct, while Cheng Zhen stepped on the stool and stretched his neck.

"is it here?"

"Yes, yes, slow down, don't post it obliquely."

"Sister Yuchu, is there anything I can do to help?" Jian Changnian asked.

Qiao Yuchu looked back at her, holding onto Cheng Zhen's chair and not daring to let go.

"Go and see Shi'an, she is pasting couplets at the door."

Jian Changnian quickly ran out of the gate.

Xie Shi'an was holding the couplet in his hand, and was staggering on the chair. Jian Changnian stepped on the chair with one foot, and at the same time reached out to support her leg, looked up and smiled.

Xie Shi'an looked down, held up the couplet and asked.

"Is it right?"

"A little further to the left, ok, ok, there it is."

The two of them worked together to paste the couplets. Xie Shi'an picked up the blessing character from the plastic bag on the ground, and was about to paste it on the door.

Jian Changnian stopped her and turned the word "Fu" in her hand upside down.

"Hey, the word "Fu" should be pasted upside down, which means "luck arrives"!"

Xie Shi'an seldom spends New Year's Eve with anyone, let alone such things as posting blessing characters. She rolled her eyes, but still followed her and pasted the blessing characters upside down.

"superstitious."

Jian Changnian picked up the little lantern from the ground again.

"Shi'an, there are still lanterns here, let's hang them up too."

"it is good."

Xie Shi'an stood on a chair and hung red lanterns on the door from left to right. The mottled iron door of the unit and the peeling paint on the wall, even after being tossed about by them like this, they looked beaming and completely new.

Jian Changnian clapped his hands and looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.

"Not bad, I really have a talent for home decoration design."

"What are you talking about, I posted it up, okay?"

Xie Shi'an retorted.

Zhou Mu ran out and called.

"Chang Nian, Shi An, wash your hands and eat!"

The fire is booming, the red pot is boiling, the whole room is talking and laughing, everyone is happy.

When the clock struck zero, the fireworks outside the window also rose into the sky.

Zhou Mu set up the camera in front and ran back.

Yan Xinyuan raised his wine glass.

"Today is an exception, everyone is allowed to drink less, happy new year!"

The cups collided, the camera also pressed the shutter, and time was frozen at this moment.

"Happy New Year!"

new year.

hapiness.

＊＊＊

That night, after the New Year's Eve dinner, she sent her grandma back to the dormitory to rest. Jian Changnian was just about to lie down and go to sleep.

There was a noise from the window.

Someone is throwing pebbles at the glass.

She opened the window and saw Zhou Mu beckoning to her. Cheng Zhen, Qiao Yuchu and Xie Shi'an were all below.

"Let's go, let's set off the fireworks."

The boy made a mouth shape: "Wait for me."

Turning around, he hurriedly wrapped his coat and ran downstairs.

A group of people drove to the edge of the deserted river beach in the early morning night.

The fireworks on the other side are still rising.

Cheng Zhen also lit the fireworks.

"Bang bang—"

Colorful flowers bloom overhead.

The tide rolled up to the shore.

Jian Changnian yelled into the rushing river: "Hey, can you hear me? I want to enter the World Championships!!"

Zhou Mu followed suit.

"I want to be admitted to the ideal university!!"

Cheng Zhen also folded his hands into a trumpet shape.

"Then I want to win the National Swimming League Championship!!"

Xie Shi'an also stood beside them.

"I want a grand slam!!"

Qiao Yuchu laughed and shouted at the river.

"Then I will bless my friends' wishes to come true!!"

There was a long whistle from a ship on the distant river.

The silent sky, the deep night, the rushing river, the burning fireworks, all the good things in this world responded to them.

The boys laughed brightly.

Those who look at the sea, also become the sea. [1]
