After writing for a long time, He Jiaye helped the villagers finish writing.

Many people thought they looked good and asked for one pair after another. He Jiaye also had a good temper and almost always responded to their requests.

Ye Jiaqi stood under the warm sun, squinting and looking at the words on the red paper.

So beautiful.

Very festive.

It has a special New Year atmosphere.

After the crowd had almost dispersed, Ye Jiaqi took out the window grilles he had cut and said, "Here, it's not very pretty, but you can still see it if you stick it on the window."

He Jiaye was very surprised: "For me alone?"

"Well, my hands-on skills are poor, so it took me a long time to cut a few pictures."

"Just wait for me and I'll write you a few couplets as a courtesy."

He Jiaye took out the remaining red paper, lowered his head, and helped Ye Jiaqi write the couplet seriously——

"Spring is full of flowers in the world, and the courtyard is always peaceful all year round."

He Jiaye's words are meaningful and grand, eloquent and full of flavor.

Ye Jiaqi held her chin and watched him write quietly. The sun shone on her fair face, and her eyes were shining with crystal luster.

Occasionally, He Jiaye turned around and met her eyes.

At that moment, he was lost for a moment.

"Have you practiced calligraphy since you were a child?" Ye Jiaqi asked curiously, "You can write so well."

"Yes, my father has forced me to practice calligraphy since I was a child. It has been for many years."

"I envy you too. You're nothing like me. You can't do anything."

"Then you should have a happy childhood? A carefree kind."

"Childhood?" Ye Jiaqi recalled, "Happiness is quite happy, but sometimes it is mixed with broken glass."

For example, when I was eight years old, I was kicked out of the house by my stepmother. I could not control the weather or the earth. I would pick wild fruits from trees to eat when I was hungry. I would hide in other people's bicycle garages when it rained. From time to time, I would be bullied by a group of children.

At that time, she was walking aimlessly on the road, not knowing where she went. She fainted on the roadside several times.

Later, I was so hungry that I bit a lollipop as soon as I woke up.

"You have such a good personality, you should be the kind of person who is not afraid of anything. Or is there someone who is very kind to you and hasn't made you suffer anything?" He Jiaye said.

"I've never suffered anything." Ye Jiaqi didn't say much.

She is reluctant to mention the past.

He Jiaye was very sensible. He knew that Ye Jiaqi would not say anything more to him, so he stopped asking and gave her all the blow-dried couplets.

"On New Year's Eve, shall we have New Year's Eve dinner together?" He Jiaye asked.

"sure."

"I can cook a few simple dishes. Do you want to drink?"

Ye Jiaqi shook his head: "I won't drink anymore. I won't be sober after drinking. Besides, I don't drink well and will get drunk."

"Drink before?"

“I used to need to drink while working.”

"Well, girls, it's better not to drink. It's not good for your health." He Jiaye said, "I brought some special braised vegetables from the capital. You can try them."

Ye Jiaqi nodded.

Hearing the word "Beijing" from He Jiaye's mouth, she still felt familiar yet strange, as if it was a city that had nothing to do with her, but when she heard the name of this city, her heart still skipped a beat.

No matter how much she refused to admit it, it was the place where she had lived for more than ten years, and her best years of youth were spent in that city.

And she planned to keep all this in her heart forever and didn't want to tell anyone.
