Initially, I vehemently rejected this suggestion. When we cook instant noodles, we usually buy them in bags. After eating, we have to wash the bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen sink. That's the only place with a faucet in this two-bedroom house. For convenience, we put the bowls and chopsticks directly into the sink. After washing one, he took out another. Occasionally, we would wash apples, pears, grapes, and so on.
Seeing that I was strongly against it, Li Liang chuckled. Actually, I had already filled the sink with water last night.
His words made me feel as if I had swallowed a fly. I could only follow in his footsteps. From then on, getting up in the middle of the night and not going to the bathroom outside the door downstairs, but solving it in the kitchen sink, became a secret between Li Liang and me.
Later, when Ji Guangyuan and Dong Xingshun both lived here, Li Liang and I marked the bowls and chopsticks that we usually used to cook instant noodles. After eating, he washed his own portion. Often, when Ji Guangyuan and Dong Xingshun put the bowls and chopsticks in the sink and poured the dishwashing liquid to wash them, Li Liang and I would cover our mouths and secretly laugh behind them.
Every time we wash apples and grapes, Li Liang and I fight to wash them. If they accidentally fall into the sink, the two of us pick them up and put them aside, then take them to Ji Guangyuan to eat.
At the end of September, we moved out of that house, but we never told Ji Guangyuan and Dong Xingshun about it. And now, I haven't contacted the three of them for more than two years. There was no phone, cell phone, QQ, Messenger, or email.
I think, perhaps, after a few years, the four of us will gather together again, smoke curling in the air, bragging and wrangling, reminiscing about these things from back then.
I wonder if Ji Guangyuan and Dong Xingshun can still remember the time when the three of us knelt in the living room, lit an incense stick each, buried the alcohol stove with fine sand, and inserted the incense stick into the sand.
I can still clearly remember every scene from the moment the incense was lit to the moment the three of us knelt down and kowtowed.
Because that was the first time I became sworn brothers with someone since I was young.
The three of us all felt that becoming sworn brothers was a very solemn and sacred matter that required great caution.
Therefore, we decided to find an old fortune-teller to calculate for us and pick an auspicious day.
Ji Guangyuan said that there were a few fortune-tellers under the bridge next to the bus station. We can go there and find someone to calculate it.
So, on an idle afternoon, the three of us went over together.
Beside the bus station, there were many old fortune-tellers. They moved a stool and placed a piece of cloth in front of them with the words "hemp clothes" written on it. When he saw someone approaching, he hurriedly greeted them warmly.
We talked to each other while looking around for candidates that we thought were reliable.
Under the bridge, we saw a thin old man with a white beard and sparse hair. Compared to the other fortune-tellers, he looked slightly kinder.
He walked over and briefly explained the purpose of his visit. The old man sized the three of us up and said,"It's 10 yuan to choose a date, 5 yuan to read your palm, 5 yuan to read your fortune, and 5 yuan to calculate your birth characters. How about this? I'll choose a date for you, and then I'll read your palm, read your fortune, and calculate your birth characters. I'll only charge you 10 yuan for these three things. How about that?" Including the ten yuan for choosing the date, it was a total of forty yuan.
