On New Year's Eve, Fu Mingyu and Ruan Sixian went to Huguang Mansion for Chinese New Year.
There was still snow on the green plants by the roadside, the branches were crumbling, and the rustling of snow could be heard wherever they walked.
There are several red lanterns hanging in the living room, and some red window grilles are pasted in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. Although there are not many, the atmosphere of the Spring Festival is rising under the warm yellow light.
When Fu Mingyu and Ruan Sixian arrived, the New Year's Eve dinner was already set on the table.
He Lanxiang has never been in the habit of extravagance and waste on food, and the aunt who cooked tonight also went home. Others are not very good at cooking, and they can't help much except to fight, so she manages it alone and only does six things. After seven dishes, I gave up.
However, although there are not many dishes, it is better than exquisite.
During the banquet, He Lanxiang glanced at Fu Chengyu and said, "What are your plans for next year?"
Fu Chengyu said a lot of work plans, He Lanxiang raised his hand to interrupt him, "Who asked you this? It's the Weiwei who used to come to you when I was a child, do you remember, it's Ran Yuwei, who got married last month. You Look at you again, whoever grew up with you is not married, even your younger brother is married."
"Remember." Fu Chengyu directly skipped the point, "She also smashed your vase."
When it comes to this matter, Fu Chengyu's goal is achieved.
He Lanxiang really didn't want to talk about this girl anymore, she turned her head and asked Ruan Sixian again, "Didn't you get your driver's license? Do you want to buy a car after the new year?"
Ruan Sixian held the chopsticks, choked, and didn't know how to answer, while Fu Mingyu next to him had eight crabs in front of him. He seemed to be concentrating on cutting crabs, but he laughed unabashedly.
"Why are you laughing?"
He Lanxiang asked.
"Nothing, let's talk about buying a car later."
After Fu Mingyu finished speaking, he turned his head and raised his eyebrows at Ruan Sixian, the smile in his eyes had not subsided, and he was a little bit slapped wantonly, "Really?"
"Oh, yes." Ruan Sixian lowered her head to grab the rice, "Don't worry, I'll talk about it later."
Ruan Sixian's driver's license was indeed passed, but the process was really tortuous.
In fact, before she went to sign up, some older captains reminded her: no need, no need, really no need.
Fu Mingyu also said that there is no need to take the test, just call the driver wherever you want to go.
It's just that Ruan Sixian often rides in Fu Mingyu's car. Seeing that he can overtake and change lanes with ease in the traffic flow, he is a little envious and wants to pretend to be forceful, so he signed up for a driving school at the beginning of this year.
But she never imagined that it took her almost a year to get a car driver's license.
Not enough time to practice the car is one aspect, and the main reason is that the operation of the car is too difficult for her.
For example, when overtaking, I am not used to looking at the traffic on the left, nor the traffic on the right, so I want to accelerate in a straight line and pull up the steering wheel, making the coach feel distressed.
When encountering a red light, the first reaction is not to hit the brakes, but to find a place to go around.
After the plane landed and entered the apron, she had to rely on a guide car, so when she learned to reverse the car into the garage, she was not used to twisting her neck to look at the line markings, and always wanted to find a guide car with a big "follow me" written on it. The car is towed in.
And when she is alone in the car and the coach is not around, she always feels unsafe when she sees no one in the right seat.
On the day Ruan Sixian got her driver's license after a lot of hard work, the driving school instructor who had brought many pilots had already lost her temper, and jokingly ho-ho with a cigarette: "Remember, when you go to the gas station to refuel, remember to give money."
Ruan Sixian: "…"
Then when we refuel the plane, we sign and leave, and there is no such thing as the driver paying for it himself.
The day Ruan Sixian came home with her driver's license notebook, Fu Mingyu was sitting on the sofa with a cigarette in between. When he saw her entering the door, he smiled and said, "After the test? What car do you want to buy? I'll take you to choose tomorrow."
But Ruan Sixian planted her head on the sofa and said dully, "I thought about it on the way back. For the safety of the people, I'd better not touch the car."
Not only did Fu Mingyu not comfort her, but he laughed so hard on the sofa that the ashes shook.
The matter of learning to drive just came to an end, Ruan Sixian gave up the idea of driving by herself, and enjoyed the service of a professional driver with peace of mind-
"You don't need to be in a hurry to buy a car, but you can usually practice your hands." He Lanxiang held the spoon, "I have a car there..."
-"what!"
Suddenly hearing Ruan Sixian's scream, He Lanxiang was so frightened that he threw the spoon, "What's wrong?! What's wrong?!"
Before she could ask one, two or three, Ruan Sixian had already lost her chopsticks and hung on Fu Mingyu like an octopus, and Doudou ran out of nowhere, and walked around excitedly under Fu Mingyu's stool with her tail wagging. go around.
"Go away, go away! You go away!"
The more Ruan Sixian reacted, the more excited Doudou became, and he jumped on the stool with his paws raised.
"Ahhhh!!!"
"How did you get out?!"
It was originally his own dog, but when He Lanxiang saw Ruan Sixian's battle, he seemed to think that there was some kind of beast in front of him, "How did this dog learn to open the door on its own?!"
Although Fu Mingyu was overjoyed and his brows trembled with laughter, he still hugged Ruan Sixian and stood up and walked aside.
He raised his chin towards Fu Chengyu, "Brother, solve it."
Fu Chengyu put down his chopsticks, got up, grabbed Doudou's front paws, and dragged him upstairs.
But when he turned around, Ruan Sixian clearly saw that he was also smiling.
And Fu Boting, who has always been unsmiling at the table, also hooked the corners of his mouth.
Ruan Sixian: "…"
After the initiator was dragged up the stairs, Ruan Sixian calmed her breathing for a long time before realizing that she was still hanging on Fu Mingyu.
She jumped down, sat upright on the stool, straightened her hair, and pretended not to see their smiles.
But Fu Mingyu's laugh has gone too far.
She turned her head, gritted her teeth and said, "Is it funny?"
Fu Mingyu pulled the corner of his mouth, "It's okay."
Ruan Sixian: "…"
Then you and your dog will grow old together, we can't live anymore-
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the two stayed the night at the Huguang Mansion.
When the bell rang at 12 o'clock, the year was over, and the family of five went back to their rooms to sleep.
Ruan Sixian came out of the shower, glanced at Fu Mingyu who was lying on the bed reading a book, went around the bed and sat down with her back to him and applied body lotion.
The two remained silent, only the sound of pages turning in the room.
After taking care of herself, Ruan Sixian got into the bed and looked at Fu Mingyu with the top half of her face exposed. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly felt a chill on her neck.
She reached out and touched the pillow and took out a red envelope.
Ruan Sixian immediately sat up and opened the red envelope to count the money, her eyes widened, as if seeing the money.
"Is there any more this year?"
Fu Mingyu gave a light "um".
"Speaking it out will make people laugh." Ruan Sixian said with a smile as she counted the money, "I'm twenty-eight and still have New Year's money."
Fu Mingyu put his hand around her shoulder and whispered, "Every year, every year is safe."
Ruan Sixian repeated in a low voice, "Peace every year."
Year after year, may every year be safe-
Winter is coming to spring, and the magnolia has not yet fully bloomed, and summer will come quietly.
It is rainy this year, and the meteorological station has predicted the landing period of the typhoon early. Although Jiangcheng is not close to the sea, it is where the typhoon passes.
When Ruan Sixian entered the medical examination center at noon, the sky was still clear. When she came out at six o'clock, she looked out and almost thought she had entered a different world through the wrong door.
At the entrance of the medical examination center, the wind was blowing, the rain was pouring, the green trees on the roadside were crumbling, the construction fence was swaying, and the large potted plants as tall as one person had already fallen to the ground.
Umbrellas can only play a symbolic role in this weather. Ruan Sixian only saw that the umbrella of a pedestrian on the side of the road turned into a lotus pod, and she knew that she didn't need to do anything more.
Seeing that the people standing with Ruan Sixian at the door were anxiously making phone calls, but she stood quietly by the side, as far as she could see, a car slowly drove in.
Despite the strong winds, torrential rain, and thunder and lightning, the sky seemed to collapse.
But when Fu Mingyu got out of the car with an umbrella, the dark cloud that was about to hit the ground seemed to rise in an instant, creating a clear space.
Ruan Sixian stood under the eaves, watching Fu Mingyu walking towards her step by step, feeling inexplicably stable.
This year is their third year of marriage.
Heartbeat is no longer the most important answer in life, but mindfulness is.
"Did you come from the airport?"
"Yeah." Fu Mingyu put one arm around her shoulder, and the two walked out together under an umbrella, "Typhoon Tianji is working on tethering the plane, so I took a look."
The rain was so heavy that Ruan Sixian felt like she was wading in the water every step of the way. Fortunately, the strappy flat shoes she wore were like playing in the water.
But when she lowered her head, she saw that Fu Mingyu's pants were almost soaked through.
"Actually, you don't need to get out of the car, and it's not too far. I walked by myself—"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt that the raindrops on her body had changed direction, and there was a sound of something collapsing in her ears.
It's just that before she regained her senses, she was grabbed and turned in a different direction. The soles of her shoes stirred in the water with a splash of half-meter-high water. At the same time, a sense of impact was transmitted to her through Fu Mingyu's sex.
What followed was a muffled sound and exclamations all around.
In the deafening sound of rain, Ruan Sixian heard her dull and harsh heartbeat and her breathing that she had no time to adjust.
A worker had already rushed over and pulled up the construction fence that had smashed on Fu Mingyu's back. Only then did Ruan Sixian understand what was happening in front of her.
"Are you OK?!"
"Where did it hit?!"
"Didn't you hit your head?!"
In the noisy voice, Ruan Sixian's shoulders that were hugged by Fu Mingyu were shaking, and she couldn't recover for a long time.
"you-"
"I'm fine." Fu Mingyu let go of her and moved his shoulders, "I didn't hit the head."
Ruan Sixian's lips trembled slightly, and she raised her hand to touch his shoulder, but she didn't dare to touch it.
"Really okay?"
Fu Mingyu frowned and took a long breath, "It's okay."
"No, go to the hospital." Ruan Sixian looked back at a loss, her eyes gradually focused in the foggy rain, "This is the hospital, go and have a look."
"This is a medical examination center, not a hospital." In Fu Mingyu's voice there was a hint of depression that no one but Ruan Sixian could notice, "Don't panic."
"Why don't I panic! Fu Mingyu, are you out of your mind, are you stupid!"-
When I got to the hospital, the doctor said it was fine, just a skin injury.
"Don't you need to take a film?" Ruan Sixian stared at the doctor, "Would you like to take a film?"
The doctor wanted to say "no" directly, but when he saw Ruan Sixian's eyes, he hesitated for a while.
"Let's shoot." Fu Mingyu took off the coat he had put on again, "Let her feel at ease."
Twenty minutes later, the doctor received the message from the CT room, raised his glasses, and beckoned Ruan Sixian to look over.
"See? It's really okay."
"Oh."
When I walked out of the hospital gate, the rain had already subsided a lot, and it washed away the dull smell unique to the hospital.
Ruan Sixian clenched Fu Mingyu's ten fingers, and said nothing out of anger, "Fortunately, you are lucky today, the baffle is not made of plastic steel, otherwise you will be served in the next life."
"That's fine."
Ruan Sixian closed her eyes and inhaled, and when she opened her eyes again, she stared at him fiercely.
"I'm not kidding you."
"Well." Fu Mingyu moved his shoulders casually, "I see, let's go home."
Although she got a positive answer from the doctor, Ruan Sixian was still in shock.
Every time I think of that moment, in addition to fear, there is more sorrow.
Sitting in the car, she lowered her head to cover her face and took a deep breath to calm herself down.
"You're really going to scare me to death."
"I-"
Fu Mingyu wanted to talk to comfort her, but he heard her say, "You are thirty-two years old this year. At this age, you are most likely to have three longs and two shorts. Don't be like this in the future, okay?"
Fu Mingyu: "..."
"Anyway, you're a bachelor's degree graduate, majoring in physics. Don't be so superstitious, okay?"
Ruan Sixian buried her head and rubbed her eyes, then grabbed his hand tightly.
"Do you hear me, this is not allowed in the future."
Fu Mingyu did not give her a positive answer.
"No one could have predicted such an accident."
If there is another time, I will do it again.
Ruan Sixian heard his voiceover, her knuckles turned white, but she couldn't say anything else. All the words were suppressed by the sourness in her chest.
It may be her superstition, but when she went through a long life and looked back on the past, this year was indeed the most frightening year in her life.
In October, Fu Mingyu took the executives of the marketing department to N country to sign a business contract.
On the afternoon of the third day after he left, the golden wind in early autumn was refreshing, and the sky was high and cloudless.
On a quiet afternoon, Ruan Sixian sat on the sofa reading a magazine, a variety show was playing on TV, and the fluff on the carpet was blown by the breeze, scratching her toes.
When turning the page, she casually glanced at the TV, and the news scroll bar showed "At 2:03 this afternoon, an earthquake of magnitude 7.2 occurred in N country..."
Two seconds later, the magazine in Ruan Sixian's hand fell, and her mind went blank for a moment-
When Ruan Sixian arrived at the World Airline Building, He Lanxiang, Fu Boting and Fu Chengyu also arrived.
Seeing Ruan Sixian, Fu Chengyu spoke immediately.
"Don't worry, the embassy has confirmed that no Chinese were killed."
Ruan Sixian had seen this news on the way here, but no Chinese were killed does not mean that no Chinese were injured.
She didn't speak, just sat quietly on the side, staring straight at the ground, her face pale.
People came and went all around, the footsteps were hurrying, and the phone was ringing one after another, as if it was still a disaster area.
At 6:30 p.m., more than four hours after the earthquake, news came from country N that the ground was temporarily confirmed to be safe, and a World Airline flight originally scheduled to take off from country N started check-in.
However, there was only one seat left on the flight that day that was not sold, so all the elderly, weak, sick and disabled passengers on subsequent flights were allowed to board the plane ahead of schedule.
In the past four hours, the mobile phone communication in N country did not resume, and Ruan Sixian didn't even hear Fu Mingyu's voice.
He Lanxiang brought a cup of hot water and sat beside Ruan Sixian.
"Drink some water." She patted Ruan Sixian on the back, "You see your clothes are soaked with sweat."
Ruan Sixian raised her head and drank a whole glass of water, but her throat was still dry.
"mom… "
"It's alright, they said there were no casualties." He Lanxiang held the cloth on his knees with a calm expression, "Don't worry."-
At nine o'clock in the evening, a passenger plane temporarily deployed by Jiangcheng was on standby and was about to fly to the capital of N countries to pick up the stranded passengers.
Ruan Sixian changed her uniform in Fu Mingyu's office.
In the empty office, He Lanxiang paced back and forth, and finally stopped at the door of the rest room and knocked on the door.
"Don't go for someone else, I'm not worried..."
Ruan Sixian opened the door, and the uniform was already put on.
"Mom, I want to make sure he's safe with my own eyes."
"We've confirmed, he's not on the injured list, he's definitely safe now."
Ruan Sixian still shook her head, without any loose look in her eyes, "I want to see him with my own eyes."
"You..." He Lanxiang tightened his grip for a moment, then released it, "Go, go, go find him, but you must pay attention to your own safety."
He Lanxiang's worries are not without reason. Generally speaking, the passenger planes that carry out this route are configured with two captains. However, due to the special situation this time, the crew will be equipped with five captains to fly at the same time, and each captain has a plateau flight. Experience.
In the aviation industry, there is an unwritten rule of "no night flight on plateau".
Plateau routes refer to routes above 1,500 meters above sea level, while those above 2,438 meters above sea level are called high-altitude routes. This route requires pilots to be several orders of magnitude higher than ordinary routes.
Jiangcheng flew to the capital of N countries, not only to traverse the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau with an average altitude of 4,000 meters, but also to cross Mount Everest, the world's highest peak with an altitude of 8,844 meters.
The flight difficulty of this route is the top among the high altitude routes.
Due to the extreme danger, this route has never been recorded as a night flight.
At 9:30 in the night, the crew arrived, and the captains led by the captain in charge boarded the plane in turn.
He Lanxiang followed him to the gangway, not forgetting to take Ruan Sixian's hand and instructed: "You must pay attention to safety, and you can't be distracted for a minute or a second in the high altitude night flight."
"Well." Ruan Sixian nodded, "Mom, don't worry, I will go home safely with him."
Ruan Sixian entered the cabin door and looked up at the thick night.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the night sky is boundless.
Even if it's a 4,000-meter plateau, 9,000-meter Mount Everest, and a night flight to the plateau, I will come to you-
Three and a half hours later, the plane landed at the N capital airport.
The airport apron far from the city was silent, but the dull wind seemed to carry the mourning from the ruins.
Ruan Sixian was the only captain who stepped out of the cockpit.
The flight attendant was busy in the cabin. She stood at the door of the cabin and looked at the terminal building.
A local mechanic under the wing circled twice with his hands behind his back. He seemed to be in a good mood, and said a long list of words to Ruan Sixian.
Ruan Sixian couldn't understand a word, and looked ahead without blinking, "My husband is in this country, I'm here to pick him up."
I don't know if the mechanic understood what she was saying, or whether he was dancing and talking while gesturing.
After an unknown amount of time, people at the airport walked wave after wave, and Ruan Sixian finally saw a familiar figure at the exit of the terminal.
Fu Mingyu didn't know who the crew came today.
Right now he just wanted to go home quickly.
There are still people waiting for him at home, and now they may be in a hurry and can't sleep.
He hurriedly walked to the apron, and Bo Yang and others who followed behind were also anxious and heavy.
When he reached the gangway, Fu Mingyu suddenly stopped.
He looked up and saw the man standing at the door of the cabin.
At first, he thought he was wrong. In the shadowy night, her face didn't look real, and there was a layer of water vapor in her eyes.
until she spoke.
The wind was silent all around, and the sky was full of dust. The joy of escaping death and the desperation of despair were intertwined in the air of this country, and they densely enveloped everyone, making people unable to breathe.
But her voice made the net disintegrate in an instant.
For the first time, Fu Mingyu heard a bit of grievance from her choked voice.
"Husband, I'll take you home."
The author has something to say:
I am so early today, praise me, fast!
After complimenting, I will go to eat my Amway. Although I know that it has been sold yesterday, but there are not too many good articles, I will quickly chase after I finish~

The two watched each other's bleeding wounds heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. Ai Yu frowned and found that things were not simple-
