26. Long-lost warmth

“Ha~”

Xia Mi stood under the eaves, stretched her waist, and the cloak accidentally slid off her body, leaving her slightly white and tender skin on her shoulders.

Before dawn, she was awakened by the sounds outside.

"Xia Mi, Xia Mi, come out and see me playing with guns. I have been uncomfortable practicing boxing these days, but I still feel comfortable playing with guns."

"Neuropathy!"

Xia Mi stood under the eaves and looked at the Hanpi who was talking nonsense and didn't let her sleep, rolling her eyes.

"Hey! I'm so furious." Xuan Hao gently pinched Xia Mi's face: "Who are the lunatics talking about?"

"Say you're crazy!" Xia Mi slapped his pig's trotters angrily.

"I don't know anything like you." Xuan Hao picked up the black spear leaning against the corner of the wall that was a little bit more than him, and fought on his shoulder and walked into the yard.

Although it has gradually become warmer, the weather is still very cold, and the clouds in the sky are gradually dyed with morning glow, and are lit hazy.

Xuan Haoheng stood quietly in the yard with a spear in his hand, his long hair tied into a ponytail, whirling along the cold wind.

Practicing martial arts is like studying. If you don’t practice for a long time, you will forget it. The minister has not touched the spear for only a few days, but when he touched it today, he felt that he had already had some hands.

Perhaps it is because the calluses formed on boxers recently affected the feel.

Speaking of practicing boxing, it is really painful. It is hard to describe it, so it is better not to say it.

"Swoosh!"

The spear dragged out a large number of gun shadows in an instant, and the sharp blades in the sky were even more powerful than before. Perhaps because of practicing boxing, his power became larger again.

"Huh! Huh! Huh!"

The spear over one person was dancing around Xuan Hao, and the wind blew, forming a graceful arc like a barrier.

The snow that had not yet melted on the ground was rolled up and flew up in chaos. The spear was swung cleanly, cutting off all the flying snow and tearing the breeze apart.

Xia Mi sat there, staring at Xuan Hao blankly. At this time, she was still wearing the clothes she had when she was sleeping. The cloak she draped on her body to keep warm was swept and her long hair was flying. What did this human want to do?

"Are you fascinated by this handsome guy? I think I'm very awesome?" Xuan Hao looked at Xia Mi in a daze, stopped Gunwu and said with a smile.

"It's either a gun or a fist, a ruffian, I'm so ugly." Xia Mi looked disgusted, she really disgusted.

...

Calm days are always beautiful and short, and time passes quickly, as if you don’t feel like you have had such a wonderful time.

In a blink of an eye, it is the end of the year again, and it will be the New Year in a while. Although in this turbulent era and the dull city on weekdays, life has to be better with hope.

"You are the New Year? I have never been there before. What is it like?" Xia Mi looked at the houses outside, and the red lanterns hung one after another.

"Oh?" Xuan Hao tilted his head, "New Year, New Year is the day for family reunion...Family..."

Xuan Hao was a little confused as he said that.

In his memory, the Spring Festival has always been beautiful. The streets and alleys are decorated with lights and people laugh and joy. Especially on New Year's Eve, colorful fireworks bloom in the night sky, with various shapes, lighting up the sky. It was so beautiful that their family could sit around the old houses in the small town, eat New Year's Eve dinner and enjoy the fireworks. It was so beautiful. Until he was eighteen years old, it was like this.

"I have not passed it for more than ten years..."

"Hmm?" Xia Mi was a little confused, meaning that you have never been through it before? This guy turned out to be an orphan? So pitiful.

"Do you don't have family?" Xia Mi asked.

"There was... but now, it's gone..." Xuan Hao looked at the sky with some conscience.

"And you?"

"Me? I'm lucky. I have an older brother. Although it's a pity that he is a fool, he always calls me sister." Xia Mi said, with a rare real smile on her face.

Xuan Hao was stunned when he looked at Xia Mi's smile.

"Well, I used to have a sister. She is very beautiful, very cute, much more obedient than you~"

"Hmph, are you showing off?" Xia Mi snorted: "How can there be someone in the world who is more cute than Xia Mi!"

"Yes, yes, no, no..." Xuan Hao said perfunctorily.

"You are perfunctory!" Xia Mi bulged her mouth.

"Hahahaha, no, really no..." Xuan Hao looked at Xia Mi. He knew that this girl was doing this on purpose, and suddenly he thought this girl was so cute.

But he was telling the truth. There is indeed no one in this world who is more beautiful than her. At least now, he has never seen it.

"Cough, cough!"

"Sorry, I'm disturbing you," Li Shuwen came out of nowhere.

At this time, he held lanterns with both hands: "Good disciple, please help me hang lanterns."

"Hmm?" Old man, don't you see the atmosphere? You can't hang it yourself? Xuan Hao was speechless. He had to let me hang a lantern and let me do it myself. What's the point of asking you?

"We are also a family, and we will have to live this year." Li Shuwen smiled and handed over the lantern in his hand and stuffed it into Xuan Hao and Xia Mi's hands.

"Get it done..." Xuan Hao took the lantern.

Xia Mi also stared at the lantern in her hand blankly. Is it the New Year? Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

...

At night.

"Is it delicious?" Xuan Hao looked at Xia Mi with his head down and asked with a treacherous smile.

"Well, um, delicious. I've never eaten this before." Xia Mi puffed her cheeks and chewed: "Well, I didn't see that, you can still cook~"

"That's necessary, how about it? Is it amazing?" Xuan Hao held the spatula in his hand.

"Awesome, awesome, awesome..." Xia Mi only had delicious dishes in her eyes, her mouth was always bulging, and her tone was all perfunctory. It's OK, the dishes are ready, and you have no use value anymore, so leave.

Xuan Hao was preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner in front of the earthen stove, but accidentally attracted a little greedy cat.

He knows how to cook, and after his parents left, he was taking care of his sister. After all, his sister's skills are hard to describe.

In this turbulent era, oil and salt are very precious things, and only the Spring Festival is enough to be willing to put more, and few people can rest assured to study how to make good food. So even if his skills decline, it is barely OK. Moreover, he cooks Sichuan cuisine from his hometown, and few people have eaten it in the north, so of course they will feel fresh.

"It's time to eat~" Xia Mi licked her lips and walked to the dining table with Xuan Hao, carrying a stack of dishes filled with vegetables.

"Hahaha, okay, okay, okay." Li Shuwen looked at the two little guys in front of him and smiled with relief.

The three of them sat together and were having the New Year's Eve dinner talking and laughing.

Outside the window, the originally dull city, with rare bright lights from thousands of homes, and lanterns hanging in front of the house.
