Chapter 8: The Tree Planting Storm

Early on Monday morning, Zhang Jiajia called Chen Lan downstairs, and Chen Lan replied, "I'll come." He hurriedly picked up his schoolbag and ran downstairs.

Around 7 o'clock is the rush hour for work and school, the road is full of office workers walking in a hurry or the student party such as the two of them walking slowly, the two of them hold their arms and chat, this feeling Chen Lan has not experienced for more than ten years, after going to high school, like a girl holding arms, holding shoulders and laughing and scolding are very close friends will do this, Chen Lan has been unconsciously alienated from the classmates around him since so many things happened in the third year of junior high school.

After going to college, he was busy with part-time jobs, and he didn't have time to contact his classmates in the dormitory, so he naturally became unfamiliar, and now he thinks about it since he separated from Zhang Jiajia, Chen Lan really doesn't have a friend to talk to.

"What's the fuss?" Zhang Jiajia shook Chen Lan's hand.

"Huh? What did you just say? Chen Lan said apologetically: "I thought of some things, but I didn't listen carefully." ”

Zhang Jiajia thought that Chen Lan remembered Xu Yize, but repeated it in a good temper, "I said, tomorrow is Arbor Day, I don't know if the school will organize tree planting activities." ”

Chen Lan recalled that it was true that when he was in junior high school, he would organize a nearby park to plant trees on March 12 every year, and of course the third year of junior high school was no exception, so Chen Lan said with certainty: "Yes." ”

"But I read the weather forecast says it's going to rain tomorrow!" Zhang Jiajia was a little unhappy, what kind of school is this, and when it rains, she organizes students to plant trees.

"When the time comes, we'll just bring an umbrella." Chen Lan will also remember that in his previous life, it rained heavily during the tree-planting activity on the third day of junior high school, and many people did not bring umbrellas, and finally Lin Cheng was left with a chicken. Because of Zhang Jiajia's reminder, she brought an umbrella to avoid a cold heart.

Zhang Jiajia's popularity is still good, her grades are good, she is also generous, and she will not be dumped if she borrows a homework, so as soon as she entered the classroom, some classmates cheered, "Zhang Jiajia, you are finally here, hurry up, borrow me to copy the homework." ”

Zhang Jiajia smiled and said unscrupulously: "I just came to school, what homework do you have?" I don't know. ”

The boy wailed, "No! The boy hurried to find Zhou Tingting, "Eh, Zhou Tingting's homework will lend me for a while, just for a while, and I will pay you back soon, I promise that I won't copy it all...... Thanks......" The boy got his homework, happily returned to his seat and began to write a book.

The people in the class arrived one after another, Chen Lan still listened to a few pieces of music first, while opening the Chinese textbook to read the ancient poems, he forgot most of the ancient poems he had memorized before, and he couldn't write the half that he could remember, so he could only remember it from the beginning.

Before he finished listening to a song, he saw a figure blocking the light, and Chen Lan looked up and saw that it was Lin Qi.

Chen Lan listened to the mp3, and only heard Lin Qi say intermittently: "...... It's too much,...... Xu Yize stalked and stalked,...... I don't like you anymore......"

Chen Lan was almost annoyed by the two of them now, took off the earplugs, and looked at her coldly, "Say it again." ”

Lin Qi was taken aback, and when he saw Xu Yize walking into the classroom, he immediately lowered his head, and said in an aggrieved voice: "Didn't you hear what I said so much just now?" ”

Chen Lan rolled her eyes, "Didn't you see me wearing earplugs?" ”

Lin Qi choked, she really didn't notice that Chen Lan was wearing earplugs, just at this time the class bell rang, Lin Qi walked down the steps, "I'll tell you later." After speaking, he smiled at Xu Yize and returned to his seat.

Xu Yize glanced at Chen Lan, who didn't seem to care, and was inexplicably unhappy, and finally didn't say anything, and Jiang Feitong, who witnessed this qiΔ“, had a complicated expression, hesitated for a while, and still didn't say anything to Xu Yize.

Chen Lan didn't take Lin Qi's words at ease, and after reading class in the morning, he pedaled and ran to the toilet.

Lin Qi was so angry that he directly blocked Chen Lan in the toilet, "Chen Lan, what do you mean, I just said that I have something to tell you." ”

Chen Lan's eyes were white, "But I don't have anything to tell you, I want to go to the toilet, please get out of the way." ”

Lin Qi naturally refused to let go, and said with a crackle: "Chen Lan, Xu Yize has broken up with you, can you not be so shameless to pester him, he has long told me that he doesn't like you, and it has always been you who stalked him before agreeing to be with you......"

If in his previous life, he would definitely not be able to stand hiding and crying when he heard these words, but now he is no longer the innocent and innocent 15-year-old her, Chen Lan will not be in a hurry to go to the toilet, he looked at Lin Qi with his arms in his arms, and watched her finish speaking.

"First, I dumped Xu Yize first, and second, you hooked up with Xu Yize before I broke up, do you know what this behavior is called? Third, I haven't spoken to Xu Yize since I broke up, I want to know where you got your so-called stalking? ”

After Chen Lan finished speaking, he quickly slipped away and found a place to solve physiological problems.

After washing his hands and returning to class, a good person asked Chen Lan, "You quarreled with Lin Qi in the toilet just now?" ”

Chen Lan was curious, "Who said that?" ”

"The girl who came back from going to the toilet just now said it vividly, as if you were arguing so much that you were about to fight, who lost and who won?" The man had a gossipy face.

Chen Lan picked up the textbook on the desktop and slapped it over, "Read more books, then gossip." ”

At the class meeting, Brother Zhong announced tomorrow's tree-planting activity, because Brother Zhong did not look at the weather forecast, he did not remind the surrounding students to bring umbrellas.

Chen Lan only told a few good classmates around him, as for whether they would spread it, then I don't know, after all, the weather is sunny from today to tomorrow morning, who could have guessed that the sky would suddenly change.

Then Brother Zhong grouped for tomorrow's activities, and the groups were generally distributed according to groups, a group of four, and it happened that Xu Yize, Jiang Feitong and Chen Lan were assigned to a group at a table.

Chen Lan is calm, he was divided like this in his previous life, so he was not surprised to be assigned to a group with Xu Yize, you must know that many activities are assigned by group, and there are many activities that will be grouped with Xu Yize in the future.

The saplings, shovels, and buckets for planting trees are all arranged by the school, and when the time comes, just go to the individual, just in case, Chen Lan also carried a schoolbag, and put a coat, a few bags of snacks, a bottle of water, an umbrella, and hemostatic patches and other things in the book bar.

The students of the whole age of the third year of junior high school lined up and set off, and the first and second years of junior high school went to the other two parks, and there was no way that one park was only enough for the students of the third year of junior high school.

Brother Zhong rode a bicycle, rode to the front of the team and stopped, holding a small horn and shouting: "The students in the back should keep up!" ”

After saying that, he rode a bicycle again, Chen Lan was already surprised, and followed the team with a small bucket, but some classmates had not been used to watching it for three years, and complained in private, "How can there be such a teacher, we will walk for more than ten minutes on the No. 11 car......"

Chen Lan just wants to say, child, you are too naΓ―ve.

Zhang Jiajia poked Chen Lan in the back, and said unhappily: "Why were you assigned to a group with him?" He naturally referred to Xu Yize.

Chen Lan was natural, "What's the matter, anyway, I just don't talk to him." ”

The saplings are waiting in the park, and there are usually two boys and two girls in a group, the boys are responsible for digging pits and planting trees, and the girls are responsible for carrying water and watering the trees.

In fact, Chen Lan doesn't understand the significance of the school's this, you must know that planting trees is not about digging a pit, then stuffing the saplings into the pit, filling the soil, how deep and how big a pit should be dug, and how much water to water after planting the tree are all regulated, so many trees are planted every year, and less than half of them can actually survive.

When he arrived at the park, Chen Lan put his schoolbag aside, rolled up his sleeves and went to move the saplings.

When he returned to the assigned location, Jiang Feitong was already in full swing, it hadn't rained recently, the ground was very dry, it was difficult to dig, Xu Yize had a habit of cleanliness, and he stood aside with a shovel in disgust, if the old Brother Zhong came, he would pretend, if it was in the past, Chen Lan would definitely be on his own for Xu Yize.

Chen Lan sometimes wonders if she spoiled him too much with Xu Yize for half a year, she was thirsty, she helped him buy water, when he was hungry, she helped him cook, she copied it for him before he finished his homework, and even planted trees because she incarnated as a female man to dig a pit for him.

But now Chen Lan is watching, Old Brother Zhong has seen it from afar, and shouted with a small loudspeaker: "Don't be lazy over there!" ”

Xu Yize was helpless, bent over with a shovel, and poked the dirt for a while.

Jiang Feitong finally couldn't look at it, "If you don't want to do it, go to the toilet and hide, don't get in the way of me here." ”

"The toilet is so dirty......"

The boys and girls on the other two sides were giggling and laughing, and two childish ones were still pinching the mud and throwing each other, and the mud that accidentally fell on the ground spread and flew to Xu Yize's shoes and trouser legs, Xu Yize scolded, "! How old are you still playing with mud, hillbilly! ”

"Say it again!" The boy is a sports student in the next class, the cow is tall and big, and he comes over with a shovel.

Xu Yize is also used to hooligans, so he is naturally not afraid of them, so he stretched out his feet to shake off the mud on his trouser legs, "Why do you want to fight?" ”

The boy wrestled his wrists and smiled disdainfully, "Okay! Tell me about the time and place. ”

Jiang Feitong has always been a good person, so he can only persuade Xu Yize, "It's just a trivial matter, there's no need to fight, can't everyone talk well?" ”

Zhou Tingting had never seen such a scene, and asked Chen Lan in a trembling voice, "Shall we report to the teacher......"

Chen Lan waved his hand, "Leave them alone, Jiang Feitong is about to dig a pit, let's go pick up water." "Anyway, you can't kill people, after all, Chen Lan has been dating Xu Yize for half a year, how can he not understand his temperament, he will persuade him before he makes an appointment with someone every three or five times, now! Leave him to death.

When the two came back with half a bucket of water, Xu Yize had probably already negotiated the time and place with them, looking lazy and lazy, Lin Qi didn't know when he came over, and was talking to Xu Yize in a soft voice, Jiang Feitong's face was particularly ugly, Chen Lan guessed that he must have had a stiff with Xu Yize.

Originally, it only took half an hour to plant the saplings, and it was dragged until 11 o'clock before the soil was covered, Chen Lan looked up at the sky, and suddenly a drop of water fell on her face.

It's raining! Chen Lan stretched out his hand to feel it, and then a few drops of rain fell on his hand, Chen Lan called Jiang Feitong, "Jiang Feitong, you have to hurry up, it's raining!" ”

At this time, many students threw away the things in their hands, and ran to the nearby pavilion in a panic to avoid the rain, the sky was still very bright, and everyone only thought that the rain would stop for a while, only Chen Lan knew how heavy the rain would be.

When Jiang Feitong heard Chen Lan's words, he reflexively called Xu Yize, "Come over and help!" ”

Xu Yize frowned, and before he could say anything, Lin Qi spoke, "Are so many of you still too busy?" ”

Zhou Tingting said weakly: "It's better for me to come." As he spoke, he went to help the little sapling and asked Jiang Feitong to cover it with soil.

Everyone didn't speak quietly during the whole process, and after a few minutes, the rain became heavier, Chen Lan stepped on a few feet in the past and stepped on the soil, "Tingting go get the bucket, don't leak the shovel, go to the nearby gazebo first, Tingting, where is your umbrella?" Chen Lan remembered that she reminded Zhou Tingting to bring an umbrella.

Zhou Tingting pointed to the gazebo, where the kettles and sunscreen hats brought by the classmates were kept, and Chen Lan explained to her, "You take Jiang Feitong for a ride, hurry back to school, and you won't be able to get out when it rains heavily." ”

Zhou Tingting nodded hurriedly, "Okay." ”

The exit of the park is low, and every time after a heavy rain, there will be a lot of water in the ground, which is half a meter deep, and there is a lot of bare soil near the entrance, which is washed by the rain, and it washes into the stagnant water and turns into earthy yellow muddy water, and the general love of cleanness is reluctant to go to this water.

After explaining Zhou Tingting, Chen Lan turned back to find his schoolbag, Xu Yize and Lin Qi both ran away, Chen Lan picked up the schoolbag, and suddenly his hand was beaten, the zipper of the schoolbag was opened, Chen Lan flipped through the schoolbag again, and the umbrella was taken away.

Chen Lan took a deep breath, resisted the idea of breaking the two bodies into pieces, picked up her schoolbag and ran towards the gate of the park, the rain was beating on her body, Chen Lan's eyes were about to condense into ice, it was really a tiger who didn't go crazy, she was all a sick cat.
