Chapter 7 We're buddies
When Bai Xi and Yi Kaixing sat down at the dinner table, Bai Dad had already returned, and Bai Dad had already learned the news of Yi Kaixing's arrival from Bai Mom. After Yi Kaixing sat down, Bai Dad said, "Xiao Kai, when did you come back?"
"It didn't arrive until five o'clock. Thanks to Xixi for picking me up today, otherwise it would have been a hassle for me to come back this time. ”
"Xixi is playing at home anyway, and you don't know her temperament. If you have something, call her, and save her from sleeping at home every day. Bai Ma interjected. In Bai's mother's impression, Baixi just lay down on the bed as soon as she had time, she always thought that Baixi was taking time to sleep, but in fact, she didn't know that Baixi was reading novels in the bed.
"I don't sleep every day. Bai Xi pouted, expressing disbelief. He turned his head again and said, "If you can't do it alone, you have to call me, if I hadn't gone to help my classmates move the dormitory that day, I wouldn't have remembered this matter, and it would be difficult for you to move alone." ”
"I'll call you next time. Yi Kaixing smiled and said lightly, the whole person exuded a sense of tenderness, and nodded.
"Remember. Bai Xi remembered that Yi Kaixing was angry after the exam that day, so he said, "You have to call me next time you get angry again, you know? Yi Kaixing sat on Bai Xi's left hand side, and after Bai Xi finished speaking, the two brothers raised their left hand and patted Yi Kaixing's shoulder.
Hearing the previous sentence, Yi Kaixing felt a little lucky in his heart, and nodded with a smile. As a result, the next sentence of "buddy" made his smile freeze for a moment, but he still said: "Eun, I will definitely call you next time." ”
Bai's father and Bai's mother didn't see the interaction between the two, so they missed Yi Kaixing's expression at that moment. Baixi itself is a big-hearted person, and after finishing and filming, he ate it by himself, and he didn't care about it. It's just that after hearing Yi Kaixing's answer, he admonished: "En, remember it." ”
It is the tradition of the Bai family to watch TV together as a family after eating, because Papa Bai thinks that even if the whole family sits together and does not speak, they can exchange feelings with each other through TV dramas, and there will be a wordless warmth flowing between family members. The highest status of the Bai family is Bai Ma, of course, this is also the result of Bai Dad's favor, so the control of the TV belongs to Bai Ma. Bai Ma wants to watch a bloody romance drama, so the whole family has to watch it.
After watching an episode of the TV series with Bai's mother, Yi Kaixing looked at his watch, it was already past eight o'clock, and then he looked at the sky outside It was almost dark, Yi Kaixing felt that he had to go. Yi Kaixing stood up, and Bai Xi also saw Yi Kaixing stand up, so he also stood up. Yi Kaixing opened his mouth and said, "Uncle and aunt, I'll go back first, I'll come back next time." ”
After hearing this, Bai Ma subconsciously looked at the sky outside, and this time she realized that it was not early, so she said, "Ah, it's so late." Then come and play next time. ”
Dad Bai also continued: "Xiao Kai, don't be polite to your uncle and aunt, you often come to play as often as you did when you were a child." Anyway, you didn't do your homework this time. "Since I went to junior high school, Yi Kaixing hasn't come much often. One is because Yi Kaixing himself can already cook, and the other is that Yi Kaixing himself does not have much time to go home. And if Yi Kaixing has lunch here, then in the afternoon, he will either make up lessons for Baixi, or be pestered by Baixi to play. Bai's father felt that everything should be focused on his studies, and he was always afraid that Yi Kaixing's learning progress would be pulled down by Baixi, which would delay Yi Kaixing's own learning, so he didn't dare to shout Yi Kaixing more. But this time is different, this summer vacation two children have no homework, so it can be crazy.
"Yes, okay. Then I'll go first, uncle and aunt. Yi Kaixing turned around and went out, and Baixi also chased him out. But Bai Xi just leaned against the door and stretched out his head to watch Yi Kaixing leave. When Yi Kaixing walked around the corner, Yi Kaixing glanced back and saw that Bai Xi was still sticking his head out to look at him as always, so he smiled and waved his hand.
Bai Xi also waved his hand very happily and said, "Come and play tomorrow." It wasn't until he watched Yi Kaixing's figure disappear around the corner that Bai Xi closed the door.
I have to say that City C is really a hot city, and when Yi Kaixing walked out of the building, the summer evening breeze blew the heat. There are lights everywhere, and looking at the buildings, they are also brightly lit. The children were playing by the dam, and even the sweat on their heads could not stop their fiery playfulness.
Yi Kaixing hadn't been back for a semester, and when he left it was still early spring and March, it was a hot summer day when he came back again. If every student wants to get a good score in the exam, it seems that they are cut off from the world around them, and they have to immerse themselves in that sea of books. Parents always want their children to get a good grade, but that's understandable, because for most people, it's a shortcut. For moms and dads, they always hope that their children can go a little further and easier, and learning well is a shortcut for countless moms and dads, so they will forcibly help you choose that path. But for most children, that path is not easy, because we will give up many, many things for it. The same is true for Yi Kaixing, he is sensible very early, so he knows that his parents are for his good, so he was obviously not willing to go to the city No. 1 middle school in junior high school, but finally went. Go to that environment that is completely unfamiliar to him, and then slowly get acquainted with those who are completely strangers.
Looking at this familiar environment and lively night, Yi Kaixing couldn't help but smile, because this is where he grew up for many years, and his childhood was like those noisy children. Although it is said that he is young and old, in his childhood, under the "oppression" of Baixi, he also showed the innocence of some children.
Yi Kaixing looked up and saw that the light in Baixi's room had been turned on, and said with a smile: "I must be reading comics or novels again." He knew that for Baixi, being able to watch an episode of TV series with her aunt was her limit, maybe it was the so-called "generation gap".
Yi Kaixing took the key out of his pocket to open the door, and then turned on the light again. Everything in the house was still the same as when Baixi accompanied him back in the afternoon, except that it was darker and more deserted. At this time, Yi's parents have not come back yet, because the children in high school here usually don't get down until nine o'clock for self-study, and Yi's parents and Yi's parents will also come home around half past nine.
Yi Kaixing pulled out the key, put it on the shoe cabinet, and then took out his mobile phone and started listening to the song. Yi Kaixing has had this habit since he got a mobile phone in junior high school, as long as he is home alone, he will always play songs, just like this so that he doesn't have to be too lonely.
He listened to Michael Jackson's songs as he packed up his things, humming a few words from time to time.
After he sorted out his clothes, books, and quilts, Yi Kaixing's clothes were already wet with sweat. City C deserves to be the "furnace" city of the country. Yi Kaixing decided to take a shower and cool off. Because of living in the school, Yi Kaixing has developed the habit of taking a quick bath, so he will wash it after dividing five by two.
Before taking a shower, Yi Kaixing had already turned on the air conditioner in the room, and the temperature was the so-called healthy temperature - 26 degrees. Yi Kaixing wiped his head with a towel casually, went to the study and took a copy of "Les Miserables" back to the room to read it.
Yi Kaixing's hobbies are three, one is to read novels, of course, this is completely different from Baixi, the novels he reads are generally famous books; the second is to read comics, of course, this is also different from what Baixi likes to read, he generally watches hero comics and hot-blooded comics, although this is completely inconsistent with his own temperament, but it is precisely because of this inconsistency that he feels more and more powerful as the protagonist; 。
When he was reading with the bedside lamp on, he heard the sound of "knock" closing the door, it was Yi's father and mother who were back.
