Chapter 59 New Year's Eve
Xia Qing and Xia Rou didn't expect that Shi Jian would suddenly say that it was a holiday. In their eyes, Shi Jian was just like Zhou Papi as he himself said, constantly squeezing the time of the two of them, oh, including his own time.Although the two sisters had no objection to this, they still found it inconceivable to hear Shi Jian talk about the holiday, so the two girls looked at Shi Jian with inexplicable eyes.

Xia Rou said, "holiday? Brother Jian, are you kidding me?"

Shi Jian said solemnly, "Do you think I'm joking?"

Xia Rou shook her head, but immediately said: "But in your words, it's not a year or a festival..."

"Who says it's not New Year's Eve?" Shi Jian interrupted Xia Rou and said with a smile, "Tomorrow is the New Year!"

"Really? That's great!" Xia Rou jumped up and shouted, "I'm one year older!"

Seeing his sister's happy face, Xia Qing also smiled, and asked, "Brother Jian, is it really Chinese New Year?"

Shi Jian nodded and said, "Although I don't know the exact time now, according to the calendar on my watch, tomorrow is the New Year."

Shi Jian didn't know the exact date after he traveled, but judging from the changes of the seasons, it should basically match the calendar on the watch, so he determined the date according to the calendar on the watch.Tomorrow is the first New Year's Day of the Gregorian calendar that Shi Jian traveled through, and it is also the 160th day of Shi Jian's time travel.

Xia Rou still didn't believe it, so she pulled up Shi Jian's sleeve and glanced at her watch. Sure enough, the electronic calendar showed 12. She immediately kissed Shi Jian on the face, then stretched out her hand and said, "Brother Jian, what did you say?" What about New Year's gifts and New Year's money?"

Shi Jian smiled and said: "Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, not to mention it's not the Spring Festival, how can you have the New Year's money, and you can still spend it?"

Xia Rou said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, I just want lucky money!"

Shi Jian knew that the Xia Qing sisters had never celebrated the Chinese New Year, and they just counted every twelve full moons as a year to calculate their age. The first Chinese New Year was new and exciting to them, especially Xia Rou, and reminded them of their wallets There were still a few Ruanmei coins in it, so I patted Xia Rou on the head and said, "I'll give it to you tomorrow, that's fine."

Xia Rou immediately nodded and agreed with a smile, and ran to play with Xiaomeng in her arms.

Shi Jian took Xia Qing's hand, held it tightly in his palm, and asked, "Qing'er, what gift do you want?"

Xia Qing smiled sweetly, and said tenderly: "It is enough for me to have you, and I don't want anything."

Shi Jian refused to let go, and said: "What can I do? I must give you a gift. This is the first time we celebrate the New Year together."

Xia Qing tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "Then I want the rose you mentioned, okay?"

Shi Jian's face collapsed, where to find roses in this cold winter months, especially now is the end of the world.

Xia Qing looked at Shi Jian's appearance, smiled "puchi", and said, "I'm kidding, I really don't want anything."

But Shi Jian patted his thigh and said, "Isn't it just a rose, brother will definitely give it to you tomorrow."

Xia Qing looked at Shi Jian suspiciously, trying to figure out where he could find the roses.

Shi Jian said mysteriously: "The secret must not be revealed, the lady will know by herself tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he went out without waiting for Xia Qing to ask.

It was not until evening that Shi Jian returned home. Facing Xia Qing's question, Shi Jian smiled and did not answer, Xia Qing was so angry that he wanted to pinch him twice.

The New Year's Eve in the Gregorian calendar was spent chatting among the three of them. Xia Qing and Xia Rou, who were celebrating the New Year for the first time, couldn't restrain their excitement.

Shi Jian told them all about the past New Year's events. Thinking that it was New Year's Eve, he mentioned the Spring Festival Gala that he performed every year and was scolded every year. It’s time to pass through, otherwise, we can see if the comedy master’s directing level will be scolded.”

Xia Rou asked, "Is it interesting?"

"Of course, I'll learn a lesson for you two." Shi Jian jumped out of bed to learn Zhao Benshan's "Selling Abductees" on a whim. Unfortunately, Xia Qing and Xia Rou didn't find anything funny, and just laughed a couple of times.

Shi Jian was not interested in acting anymore, and sighed and said: "This person's experience is different, and his smile is also different. I guess the big flicker has become a zombie, I don't know if he can be flickering again in the zombie circle. "

Shi Jian's mood was a little low again, Xia Qing hurriedly smiled and comforted him: "It's actually quite funny."

Shi Jian waved his hands, and said, "It's okay, it's not funny, I'm just 'missing relatives every festive season'."

Shi Jian walked out of the room confidently, Xia Qing and Xia Rou followed closely.Looking at the waning moon in the sky, Shi Jian sighed and said, "During the Chinese New Year, the sound of firecrackers on New Year's Eve was endless. Listen, now, apart from the sound of the wind, there is only the sound of nocturnal birds and animals. Everything is so quiet, so quiet. It’s hard to believe that someone has ever existed here.”

Xia Rou held Shi Jian's hand and said softly, "Brother Jian..."

Shi Jian held Xia Qing's hand instead, exerted a little force to stop what she was going to say, and just looked at the lonely moon quietly, falling into silence.

Xia Qing embraced Xia Rou in his arms, nestled next to Shi Jian, looked at the night sky together, and felt the loneliness in Shi Jian's heart.She knew that Shi Jian came from the prosperous old age, where material and spiritual life was extremely rich, there were neither zombies nor wolves, and the pressure of survival was minimal compared with the last days, it was simply the paradise in her dreams, the Garden of Eden that Shi Jian spoke .And Shi Jian somehow traveled to the present. Although he escaped the crisis of mutating into a zombie, he also fell into endless loneliness, the kind of loneliness that he couldn't escape even with her company.

Xia Qing held Shi Jian's hand even tighter. No matter what time it was, she hoped that she could cuddle up to Shi Jian tightly, spend this life with him, heal the scars in his heart, and prevent him from going forward alone. Row.

"Di, beep, beep..." The three of them were woken up by the alarm of the watch. Shi Jian glanced at his watch, turned to Xia Qing and Xia Rou with a slight smile, and said, "Qing'er, Xiaorou, Happy New Year!"

Only then did Xia Qing and Xia Rou realize that it was past midnight, and they said in unison, "Brother Jian (Brother), Happy New Year!"

The three looked at each other and smiled, Xia Rou stretched out her small hand, looked at Shi Jian with her small chin tilted, and said, "Gong Xi Fa Cai, here are the red envelopes." But she learned what Shi Jian just said and sold it now.

Xia Qing also smiled to make fun of it, and stretched out his hand and said, "Gong Xi Fa Cai, here are the red envelopes."

Shi Jian had been prepared for a long time, reached out his hand and took out his wallet, took out two red notes from it, handed one to the two women with a smile, and said: "The lucky money is given to you, don't ask for any more."

"That can't be done, I still want a gift." Xia Rou said relentlessly.

"Gift?" Shi Jian pretended to be confused and asked, "What gift?"

Xia Rou saw that Shi Jian was about to renege on his debt, so she shook her sister's hand and said, "Sister, look at him being rambunctious."

Shi Jian laughed loudly, walked to the back of the woodpile, took out a square object, held it in his hand, shook it at Xia Rou, and said, "Xiao Rou, what do you think it is?"

Xia Rou hurriedly ran over, took one in her hand, and carefully identified it under the faint moonlight.

It was a small box made of birch bark. The birch bark was peeled very thin by Shi Jian, and there were only two or three layers, and the seams were glued together.What is strange is that the box has no bottom, and four thin wires are tied to the four corners below, and a small box also made of birch bark is hung on the thin wires, but it is tightly sealed, leaving only a small opening.The small opening is wrapped with a wick like a diesel lamp with an iron sheet.

Xia Rou shook the small box below, smelled it again, and confirmed that it was full of diesel oil, so she tentatively asked, "Brother Jian, is this your new oil lamp?"

Shi Jian shook his head and said, "No, guess again."

Xia Rou cast her eyes on Xia Qing for help.Xia Qing took it over and looked at it, thought for a while before saying, "Kong Ming Lantern?"

Shi Jian nodded with a smile, and said, "There are two more, one for each of us, and write down our wishes with a pen, and we will release the Kongming lanterns later."

Xia Rou has long been very interested in what Shi Jian said about the Kongming Lantern, and when she heard Shi Jian said that he would put up the Kongming Lantern, she cheered and ran into the house to get a pen.Xia Qing looked at Shi Jian tenderly and said, "I'm going to make this this afternoon? Thank you for your hard work."

Shi Jian smiled and said, "No, I started making this a long time ago. This is what I made this afternoon." He took out another thing and put it in Xia Qing's hand.

Xia Qing looked down and saw that it was a flower made of birch bark, and immediately knew that it was a rose, and felt like knocking over a honeypot in her heart, it was extremely sweet, and said softly, "Thank you, Brother Jian. "

Shi Jian held her in his arms and said, "I have no way to find a rose, so I can only use it instead. I hope you don't dislike it. I will definitely give you a real rose in the future."

Xia Qing leaned on Shi Jian's broad chest, listening to the strong heartbeat, smiled and said: "I don't dislike it, this is already very good." After speaking, she tiptoed and kissed lightly.

Shi Jian was about to return a more intense kiss when Xia Rou's voice came from behind: "Here's the pen, what do you want to write?"

The two hurriedly separated, Xia Rou took a pen and wrote on the Kongming Lantern as usual, and said: "Go on, pretend I'm not here."

Shi Jian and Xia Qing smiled at each other, and each took a pen to write down their wishes on a Kongming lantern.

After the three of them finished writing, Shi Jian lit the wick, and in a short while, the Kongming lantern swayed upwards, gradually flew higher and higher, broke away from the obstruction of the forest, and hung high in the sky, which was even more important than the crooked crescent moon. Brighter.

The three of them looked up at the Kongming lanterns twinkling in the night sky, and their minds soared along with them, hoping that their dreams could also spread their wings like the Kongming lanterns, reach the highest point in the sky, and then be sent southeast by the northwest wind, gradually drifting away. .

Under the same starry sky, two people were toasting to the moon, saying in unison: "Happy New Year!"

Just as he was about to drink the wine in his glass, one of them pointed to three flashing lights in the sky, and asked in surprise, "What is that? Could it be that my old eyesight is blurred, or did three supernovas suddenly explode?"

The other person looked in the direction of his finger, dismissively said: "Kongming Lantern."

"Oh, it turned out to be a Kongming lantern. I thought I was too old to have hallucinations." As he spoke, he clinked glasses with the other party again, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Suddenly, the two stopped at the same time, looked at each other, spewed out the wine they hadn't swallowed, and said in unison: "Kongming Lantern!"
