Xintan is a tourist attraction that has only developed in recent years in Chunxi Town, and a beach has been carved out in the lower tributaries of the Xijiang River, and paved with indescribable pebbles. The water of the tributaries flows down the trend, forming a shallow river beach, the river water is clear, the water is cool, and in summer, many people come to play, including many couples in love.

Qin Yan didn't expect to see Gu Weisen here again, and she didn't expect that the man Zhang Muran wanted to introduce to her was him.

She looked at the familiar face, Gu Weisen was still the same as before, wearing a pair of thin-framed glasses, the hair on both sides was trimmed short, and the bangs that rushed forward were slightly short, adding a little momentum to his gentle temperament.

Qin Yan suddenly smiled and stretched out his hand towards him.

"Gu Weisen, long time no see. ”

Gu Weisen also smiled at her and shook her hand gently. Before he came, he was still a little unconvinced, but now he sees her right in front of him. The disordered heart calmed down in an instant, and there was an inexplicable excitement added to the calm.

At this moment, Yan Ye and Zhang Muran also got out of the car.

Zhang Muran walked up to Qin Yan, leaned into her ear, and whispered, "Sisters, how is this surprise?"

As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows at Qin Yan.

Although Qin Yan was a little surprised, it was not the kind of joy that Zhang Muran understood. She thought that Zhang Muran might have taken the jokes of her student days seriously.

Eight years ago, Qin Yan was seventeen years old, and Zhou Xiaoyi really did as she said, and she never planned to pay for her to go to school after Qin Yan finished junior high school.

At that time, Qin Yan's academic performance was very good, and she was also the first in the region in the high school entrance examination, and the teachers praised her as a good seedling.

But without money, no matter how good the grades are, it is useless.

Qin Yan had a big quarrel with Zhou Xiaoyi, and walked out of the house with his schoolbag on his back.

Zhou Xiaoyi rushed out of the house and yelled at her with a scolding scolding, "Dead girl, if you have the ability, don't come back if you leave, I will treat you as a daughter!"

"You short-lived ghost, you came to this world to torture me!"

Qin Yan carried his schoolbag and covered his ears with both hands, and Zhou Xiaoyi's scolding continued. She wiped away the tears that had fallen. began to run, getting farther and farther away, and Zhou Xiaoyi's voice gradually became smaller.

She ran all the way to the end of town.

She didn't know where to go, so she had to walk to the school gate.

The high school entrance examination has long ended, the school is in the summer vacation, and her class has long been occupied by the next class of students, and there is no place for her to exist for a long time.

I don't know who will see the motto she carved on her desk, will they erase it? Or write a dialogue behind it?

Qin Yan had no way of knowing. She crouched in the corner of the school gate, hugging her legs and curling up, just thinking about it. She didn't know what she was doing, she just felt that thinking about it would make her heart feel less tired.

The summer night came late, but it was still getting dark at half-past seven.

Qin Yan was squatting in the corner, her legs had already been bitten by mosquitoes, she scratched it, and photographed another mosquito.

She spread out her palm, and the corpse of the long-legged mosquito was lying on it, surrounded by blood, which showed that she had sucked a lot.

Qin Yan sighed, rubbed his somewhat numb legs, and stood up against the wall.

Then, she heard Gu Weisen's voice.

"Qin Yan, what are you doing here?" his voice was surprised.

Qin Yan held on to the wall for a while, even if he didn't see it, he knew that his gaze fell on him.

When her legs were no longer so numb, she raised her head and looked at the boy.

"Gu Weisen, can you do me a favor?" she tilted her head and looked at him with bitter face.

At that time, she and Gu Weisen were not particularly familiar. When she was in the second grade of junior high school, she met Zhang Muran, and later under Zhang Muran's introduction, she played with Gu Weisen a few times.

Qin Yan's school is located in Qingshui Town, Zhang Muran and Gu Weisen grew up in Chunxi Town, when Zhang Muran transferred to another school, Gu Weisen also came with him, but in another class.

The three of them often got together later, but it was usually Zhang Muran and Gu Weisen who talked, and Qin Yan listened quietly with him, only occasionally saying a few words.

She looked at Gu Weisen, and she didn't really want to say the words asking him for help. But she couldn't think of any other way.

Gu Weisen also looked at her, got off his bicycle after a while, put down the tripod, and walked over to her.

"You...... Is something wrong?" he stared at her, his voice low.

Qin Yan didn't want him to see his embarrassment, so he turned his head away from his gaze.

Gu Weisen probably also felt that this question was too direct, so he cleared his throat and replied to her previous words.

"You say, how can you help you?"

Qin Yan pinched the strap of her schoolbag, her palms were full of sweat, she lowered her head and said, "Can you take me to Mu Ran's house?" ”

Gu Weisen nodded, although he didn't know what happened to her, but if he asked Zhang Muran to ask, he might know.

Thinking like this, Gu Weisen walked back to his bike, kicked off the tripod, and looked at her with the faucet in his hand.

"Get in the car, I'll take you. ”

Hearing this, Qin Yan raised his head.

The summer wind rose slightly, blowing the hem of the young man's clothes, and Qin Yan felt bursts of warm wind on this hot summer day.

Afterward. He rode her down the long street, over winding country roads, high and steep slopes. Bringing gusts of cool wind when going downhill, Qin Yan sat in the back seat, clutching the cushion underneath tightly.

Shaking around, Qin Yan felt that he had never been so relaxed.

He drove her all the way to Chunxi Town, Zhang Muran was squatting at the door to nibble on watermelon, teasing the puppy who didn't know who, and when he saw them, the watermelon in his hand was almost not stable.

"Little Smoke...... Gu Weisen?" Zhang Muran got up, as if he was particularly surprised by their sudden appearance.

Qin Yan looked at her and smiled a little reluctantly, Zhang Muran was about to step forward to talk to her, when he was suddenly pulled aside by Gu Weisen.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Muran was pulled by him and almost fell, a little angry.

Gu Weisen patted her on the shoulder and pulled her away.

He approached Zhang Muran, lowered his head and spoke, his voice was low, and the more Zhang Muran listened, the tighter his brows wrinkled.

Subsequently, she asked Gu Weisen to go home.

"Leave it to me, you go home first, your mother was looking for you just now. ”

After speaking, she walked to Qin Yan's side, took her hand and pulled her into the door.

Zhang Chaoying was still tough at that time, always soliciting customers at the station, and there was no one to see at this time.

Zhang Muran took Qin Yan by the hand and took her into his bedroom.

The first time Qin Yan saw the girl's bedroom, it was very different from the room she had at home. Her own room, which consisted only of a bed and a simple wardrobe, was often damp, and the textbooks piled up in the corner were always moldy and smelled indescribably musty.

At this moment, she stood at the door of Zhang Muran's bedroom, just looked at it briefly, her eyes were full of pink, green, and green, and there were several plush animal toys on the bedside. Among them, there was a big bear that was one person tall, and Qin Yan had only seen it on TV.

Zhang Muran saw her standing at the door in a daze, patting her bed.

"Come and sit. ”

Qin Yan pinched the strap of her schoolbag, a little cramped, the bed looked so clean, she ran outside for a day, and sat on the ground again, covered with dust.

She was unwilling and could not bear to be defiled.

"What are you doing stunned?" Zhang Muran saw that she didn't move for a long time, walked over, and moved to pull her schoolbag, "This schoolbag is sinking on your back, you put it down." ”

Qin Yan was a little passive and she put down her schoolbag, but she still held the strap tightly in her hand.

"Put it here. Zhang Muran simply picked it up and put it on the desk next to him.

Qin Yan didn't have time to refuse, and the strap on her hand was ripped away by her.

Zhang Muran dragged another chair and stuffed it under Qin Yan's buttocks, then pressed her shoulders with both hands and forced her to sit down.

Qin Yan sat with his hands on his lap a little unnaturally.

Zhang Muran sat down on the edge of the bed, saw that she was sweating, and turned on the electric fan to blow at her. Then he pedaled out again. She glanced outside, not knowing what Zhang Muran was doing.

Soon, Zhang Muran ran back, holding two cones in his hands.

"Oh, take it. She handed one to Qin Yan, and then sat back on the edge of the bed.

She tore the wrapping paper and glanced at Qin Yan from time to time.

"Did your mom scold you again?" she lowered her head, her gaze resting on the cone.

Qin Yan held the cone in his hand and sighed sullenly.

"It's all commonplace. ”

"Then you can't let her scold!" Zhang Muran took a bite of the cone, and was a little hateful, "I'll scold it back!"

Qin Yan laughed helplessly, and said, "You don't know her, the more you talk to her about people like her, the more fierce she can scold." ”

"Then I'm more fierce than her, see who is more fierce than who?!" Zhang Muran wiped his mouth, and his eyes glared fiercely as if Zhou Xiaoyi was right in front of him.

Qin Yan looked at the cream on the corner of her mouth, pulled the tissue on the table and handed it to her.

"With this time to argue with her, I might as well do a few more math problems. Qin Yan shook his head, his face pale.

"It's a pity that I won't even have the opportunity to touch books in the future. She sighed, her voice weak.

Zhang Muran wiped the corners of her mouth, and suddenly raised her eyebrows and asked her, "What, she really won't let you go to school?"

Qin Yan had mentioned to her that Zhou Xiaoyi would not let her go to high school, but she didn't take it seriously, and when she heard Qin Yan say this, she naturally thought of the past.

Qin Yan didn't speak, just lowered her head and was silent, and after a while, she sniffed and raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eye.

"What are you crying about?"

Zhang Muran saw her burying her head and crying, and she felt very uncomfortable in her heart, she rubbed her nose and dragged the whole package of tissues over.

"I didn't cry. Qin Yan sniffled, stubbornly denied, and his voice was buzzing, "I'm just uncomfortable......"

"Alright. Zhang Muran pulled a tissue to help her wipe her tears and comforted, "Because it's not worth it for her to cry." ”

Qin Yan took the tissue in her hand and wiped it herself.

"I'm not crying because she's crying......," she tilted her head and blinked, "I'm just crying to myself." ”

Zhang Muran has known her for so long, and she has always helped her at school. The first time she saw Qin Yan crying like this, she was not only surprised, but also distressed.

"Isn't there still me?" Zhang Muran patted her on the shoulder and looked at her with a firm look in his eyes, "Anyway, it doesn't cost much to go to high school, I'll ask my grandma to pay for you." ”

Qin Yan blinked. looked at Zhang Muran a little stunned.

"It's not good to ...... like this" Not to mention that the two are not related, Zhang Chaoying's money is not blown by the wind, and she is so old, it is impossible for Qin Yan to let her pay for herself.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Muran wrapped his arms around and held his head high very surely, "Anyway, Zhang Chaoying has money, and she can't give birth to cubs when she is idle, so it's better to take it out and do good deeds." Zhang Muran always likes to call Zhang Chaoying's name behind her back, and she doesn't give her grandmother face at all.

"No, it won't. Qin Yan shook his head and refused.

"Then do you still want to go to school?" Zhang Muran glared at her and asked.

"Yes, but I can't ...... like that," she always felt was wrong.

"Alright. If you want to go to school, don't worry about anything else, leave it to me. Zhang Muran waved at her, so that she didn't need to say anything else.

In the evening, Zhang Chaoying returned.

The three of them ate around a table, and Zhang Chaoying suddenly laughed happily after knowing that she was the classmate who had the best time with Zhang Muran at school.

"Thanks to you, Mu Ran's grades have improved a lot in the past two years. She kept putting vegetables into Qin's cigarette bowl, praising her vigorously.

Qin Yan smiled and replied, "Actually, Mu Ran is very smart, but she doesn't focus on studying, as long as she studies hard, her grades will definitely improve quickly." ”

Zhang Muran listened with pointed ears on the side, and couldn't help but give Qin Yan a thumbs up at this moment.

"I don't know her brain, she's stupid as a pig, or you're good at teaching. Zhang Chaoying looked at Qin Yan with an envious expression of looking at other people's children, "Listen to her, you tutored her in school?"

Qin Yan nodded, "The head teacher said that she wants to help one by one, and I will answer her questions when she usually has them." ”

"Mu Ran can be at the same table with you, it is really a blessing that she has cultivated for eight lifetimes. Zhang Chaoying was a little excited, and gave Qin Yan another chicken leg while speaking.

Qin Yan looked at the dishes that had been piled up into a hill in the bowl, and said modestly, "This is all what I should do." ”

Zhang Muran has been a bystander. Seeing that the two of them were almost talking, they said in time, "Grandma, if Xiaoyan hadn't helped me usually, I wouldn't have been able to get into this high school entrance examination." ”

"It's good that you have this awareness!" Zhang Chaoying pointed at her with chopsticks, looking like she hated her and didn't fight.

"That Xiaoyan has helped us so much, do we have to thank her?" Zhang Muran bit her chopsticks and raised her eyebrows to signal to Zhang Chaoying, ignoring Qin Yan, who had been glaring at her.

"That's ......" Zhang Chaoying reacted, turned his head to look at Qin Yan and said, "Xiaoyan, tell me, what gift do you want?" ”

Qin Yan pinched her chopsticks, glanced at Zhang Muran, who was looking at her, and looked back at Zhang Chaoying.

"Grandma Zhang, don't ...... it"

"How can you not use it?" Zhang Muran snatched Qin Yan's words and took Zhang Chaoying's hand, "Grandma, Xiaoyan, she has always been afraid of giving people trouble, but does our Zhang family have to repay the favor?" Since she doesn't want it, then I'll ask for it for her." ”

Zhang Chaoying nodded: "You're right. ”

Zhang Muran was affirmed, so he simply let go, leaned into Zhang Chaoying's ear, and whispered a few words.

Zhang Chaoying listened. The more ugly his face became, Qin Yan sat next to him, feeling like a needle prick, and he couldn't sit still.

Later, after Zhang Muran finished speaking, Zhang Chaoying stared at Qin Yan for a long time.

"Xiaoyan, if grandma promises to let you go to high school, can you also promise grandma one thing?"

Zhang Chaoying looked at Qin Yan, restrained the face that was still smiling just now, and had a serious attitude.

Qin Yan also looked at her, and after a while, she said, "Grandma Zhang, this is all nonsense, you don't have to worry about it......"

"Why can't you care?" Zhang Chaoying didn't like this.

"You are Mu Ran's good friend, no matter what you say, you can call me grandma. She said, going to pull Qin Yan's hand, "Besides, how much money can it cost to go to high school? Although grandma is not a rich person, she still has this money, you are worried." ”

"It's just that my grandmother is a hidden rich woman. Zhang Muran also echoed on the side, and was glared at by Zhang Chaoying.

Qin Yan lowered his head silently, watching Zhang Chaoying holding his hand, and his mind turned a thousand times for a while.

Do you want to seize this opportunity? Qin Yan asked himself in his heart.

If you promise them, will it work to repay them in the future? Qin Yan looked at Zhang Chaoying, and then at Zhang Muran, who had been staring at her.

After a moment, she nodded heavily.

"Wow, yes!" Zhang Muran jumped up from the chair happily as soon as he saw her nodding.

Qin Yan looked at her and smiled, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Later, Zhang Chaoying made that request, hoping that Qin Yan could still help Zhang Muran in her studies in high school, and it was best for her to be admitted to university.

Qin Yan naturally agreed very happily, and later the two went to the same high school in Chunxi Town together, and were assigned to the same class, Qin Yan was more concerned about Zhang Muran's grades than about herself.

In high school, studying became more difficult, and Qin Yan supervised her every day, Zhang Muran complained bitterly, and only when Yan Ye came to her, could she complain to him for a while.

Coincidentally, Gu Weisen was also assigned to the same class as the two of them.

If Qin Yan is a hard-working and hard-working faction, then Gu Weisen is the kind of talent given by God, when the first year of high school started, the two entered the class with the first and second grades respectively.

Gu Weisen comes from a family of teachers. Her mother, Li Zhilan, was a history teacher in the high school of Chunxi Middle School, and her father Gu Boxun was also the head of the mathematics teaching and research group of the high school before, and later entered the Municipal Education Bureau and became a big leader in it.

Later, Gu Weisen still knew about Qin Yan, he thought about it and decided to consult Gu Boxun.

Gu Boxun listened to the end of a cigarette and said to him, "With a family and grades like her, she can apply for a scholarship and living allowance from the school." ”

One day after school, Gu Weisen told Qin Yan about it, and Qin Yan was immersed in solving a math problem. After listening to him, he stopped writing.

"But I already have Grandma Zhang's sponsorship, so it's not good to apply for this again. She frowned and looked at Gu Weisen, who was sitting across from her.

"That's right...... However, it is possible to apply for a living allowance. Gu Weisen thought about it and said to her again. Usually seeing that she lives a very frugal life, and this age is the time to grow her body, Gu Weisen can't help but worry about her physical health.

When Qin Yan heard him say this, his face turned slightly red, and he refused, "It's better not to do it, let those who really need it apply." ”

As she spoke, she began to clean up the textbooks on the table, ignoring Gu Weisen, who still wanted to persuade her. I walked to the back of the classroom, picked up a broom, and started cleaning.

Gu Weisen looked at her back, a little confused.

After many years, Gu Weisen remembered it again, and suddenly seemed to understand something.

He looked at the woman in front of him and realized that she was no longer the helpless girl who squatted at the school gate back then. She whispered to Zhang Muran, and between her eyebrows was a pleasure he had never seen.

Zhang Muran suddenly walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and approached him.

"Brother, the opportunities are ready for you, you have to take advantage of them. As she spoke, she raised an eyebrow at Gu Weisen.

The next moment. Yan Ye came over and pulled Zhang Muran away.

"You take care of yourself first. He teased Zhang Muran, Zhang Muran was dragged away by Yan Ye's waist, glared at him when he heard the words, and gave him a middle finger.

The two gradually drifted apart, Qin Yan walked to Gu Weisen's side and looked at the backs of the two.

"I didn't expect Yan Ye, who listened to Mu Ran when he read and did everything, but now it's the other way around. Qin Yan smiled and shook his head.

"This is called, there is reincarnation in the way of heaven. Gu Weisen nodded and took her words.

As he spoke, Gu Weisen turned his head to look at her, Qin Yan also smiled, and the eyes of the two met for a moment.

There was silence in the air for a few seconds, Qin Yan turned his head first, looked at the crowd playing next to him, Gu Weisen suddenly coughed a few times, and said, "Go there and have fun, the sun is still shining quite hot here." He pointed to a shady place with trees.

He raised his hand and blocked it at Qin Yan's back, and the oblique sunlight hit his arm.

Qin Yan nodded and walked towards the tree.

There are laughing people all around, there are young couples who come to play with their children, there are also several groups of students who look like people, and more are lovers with a man and a woman.

The flat sandals she wore when she came, she ran down to her ankles, and she was glad she was wearing a skirt.

Gu Weisen followed her, looked at the white shirt and beach shorts on his body, and suddenly felt a little regretful. Raising his eyes again, Qin Yan's back had already walked away, and he took a few steps to catch up.

Upward was the hot temperature, and under his feet was the icy cold water, Qin Yan suddenly felt a lot of relief from the heat.

There was a row of wooden chairs under the tree, where Qin Yan sat down, and Gu Weisen followed.

The two of them sat and watched the boys playing in the water.

Knowing that they can't stop barking in the trees, announcing the summer that belongs to them.

In the sound of cicadas, Gu Weisen looked at Qin Yan's side face, and after a while, he said, "You have been developing in Haishi since graduating from college?"

Qin Yan nodded and asked, "What about you?"

"yes, my mom had to let me stay with her. Gu Weisen shook his head, quite helpless.

"So you ...... now," she raised an eyebrow, a little unsure of what he did.

"Teacher. Gu Weisen smiled: "I didn't expect me to have this day, right?"

When he was studying, there were two teachers at home who surrounded Gu Weisen, which made Gu Weisen very annoyed, and he swore never to fill in the normal major when he filled in the college entrance examination. Unexpectedly, as soon as I graduated from college, I still embarked on this position.

"Really?" Qin Yan looked at him in disbelief.

To this day, she remembers Gu Weisen's ambitions when she filled out the volunteers.

At this time, when I heard him talk about his work, I couldn't help but laugh at the oath he had made back then.

"Uncle, can you stop us?" a voice suddenly sounded in front of Qin Yan.

"This is all the road, why am I blocking you?Also, call brother, not uncle!" Another fierce voice made Qin Yan's eyebrows jump.

"Wow......"

Qin Yan raised his eyes and saw a little boy a few meters away rubbing his eyes and crying and running away, and a man stood in that place, staring straight at her.

Gao Pan Qin Yanlou Sheng Kun
