Since there were no flower shops in the vicinity, and there were several bus trips to the cemetery, she planned to go home first, change her clothes, get some necessities, and then buy a bouquet of flowers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After changing the subway twice, and then changing buses twice after leaving the station, she finally got off in a relatively remote place. The bus stop was a long way to her mother's grave, and it took a long time to walk, and since that section of the road was not easy to walk, she walked a long way to get to that cemetery. Because the incident happened suddenly, there were no photos on hand, so the tomb used a photo of his mother's life, that person usually loves beauty, and he must also hope that his beautiful photos will be seen by others.

"Mom, I've come to see you!" Xia Youran stroked the photo above with her hand, which was heart-piercingly cold.

"Why don't you speak?" Xia leisurely sat down against the tombstone, completely ignoring whether there was dust on it.

"I'll bring you your favorite starry sky, you must love it." Xia Youran put down a large bunch of stars in his hand, leaned against the tombstone and continued.

"It's been so long, you haven't appeared in my dreams once, don't you want me anymore?" She was coquettish like a child, you know, she never talked like this before, and she was always disgusted with her mother's long-winded and special gossip every day.

"A while ago, I saw my uncle on the road, and he was doing well, as if he didn't need to live a life of hiding in Tibet. Xiaoyi also started to go to college, she looks so smart, she looks better than her aunt. Bai Ze should be about to return to China recently, Xiao that child is very sensible, the two of us live together, and he is almost taking care of me. Also, I've started working full-time as a manga artist, and a small number of people are reading my works...... The vitality of weeds is really strong, as long as there is a little gap, it can grow. Xia Youran pulled out the grass at his feet.

"Mom, wait a minute, I'll go get some water and help you clean up......" After saying something for a long time, she remembered what she was doing today, so she stood up, patted the dust off her buttocks, and walked towards the house where the grave keeper lived, because she came several times a year, and she was already familiar with certain things, she knew that she could borrow a bucket from the grave keeper, and he still had running water, that person was very kind, and generally just said hello.

"Uncle?" Seeing that the door was open, Xia leisurely shouted a few times towards the house.

"What's wrong?" The grave keeper came out of the back room.

"This little thing is brought to you." Xia Youran brought some fruits, and she would bring some every time she came, hoping that he could take care of her mother's tomb a little. Moreover, she knew that this old man had no relatives, and had always lived alone by this deserted cemetery, and there was nothing to eat, so she would always bring some food, sometimes fruit, sometimes pastries, sometimes some canned food.

"Girl, why do you bring something every time? You don't have to bring it next time! Blame the waste of money! It's not a big deal to just borrow something, and I don't have anything of value here, uncle. The uncle was babbling and complaining like a parent, but Xia Youran on the side felt that he must be very happy in his heart, because it was a luxury to be able to talk to anyone in this place.

"Just a little careful...... Xia replied with a smile.

The uncle took the fruit handed over by Xia Youran, put it on the table next to him, and then turned around and handed her some brooms, buckets and other things in the corner.

"Thank you......"

"Silly girl, it's good to use these things directly, thank you for what you say......"

"En......"

Xia Youran carried a bucket of water up, wiped the tombstone inside and out, and disposed of the nearby weeds, and inserted the big bunch of stars on the vase on the tomb. (This vase is poured directly, because it is easy to blow the vase over when the wind is strong, so it is poured directly at the time of design.) ）

Xia Youran looked at his phone after getting all this, it was already twelve o'clock.

"Mom, I'm going back, it's early to get out of school in the lower grades of primary school, and I'm going to rush back to pick up Bai Xiao. This morning, the kid yelled that he could take the bus to school by himself, and that little look was really cute, and I probably understood the fun when you took me alone. With that, Xia Youran put the garbage that was cleaned up nearby just now in a bag and carried it in one hand, then took those tools in the other hand, and reluctantly left from here.

At half past three in the afternoon, at the gate of Bai Xiao School.

She waited with the parents who were waiting for their children to come out of the school. Today's primary schools are also very orderly: when they go out, they all come out in line with class cards, and the children will walk out hand in hand with the classmates in the next team.

In fact, this is what Xia Youran wanted to see, she quickly found the sign of Bai Xiao's second class, and then quickly found Bai Xiao in the crowd, because he was relatively small, so his position was relatively high, and he could find it soon. Xia leisurely glanced at the girl with two ponytails he was leading. Then take out the camera and keep pressing the shutter.

"Hey...... What a precious photo! Good material......" Xia Youran looked sinister.

Of course, seeing such a strange guy in the crowd, everyone cast strange glances. Parents were a little suspicious that this human-looking guy might be a human trafficker, and when they felt like her, the more they looked at her, the more they thought she was a human trafficker, so they were careful to be vigilant and try not to stand next to her. Of course, Bai Xiao quickly noticed the commotion on the parents' side, as well as Xia Youran, who was still taking pictures despite everyone's eyes.

"Hey, you idiot, what are you doing here?" After Bai Xiao went out, he walked up to Xia Youran, pulled her shirt and asked in a low voice.

"Take a picture of you after school." Xia leisurely held the camera in her arms with a happy look.

"Didn't you just shoot it a few days ago......"

"Every day is different...... Xia leisurely took Bai Xiao's hand, and then walked in the direction of the subway station, "Why aren't you holding the short-haired girl yesterday today?" ”

"Oh, Xu Ruoting, she has a cold today and asked for leave."

"Oh, that child's name is Xu Ruoting, where is this cute little girl with two ponytails today?"

"Her name is Zhang Jiajia......"

"The names of children nowadays are so literary......" Xia said thoughtfully, thought for a while and continued to ask, "Then do you have a favorite classmate?" ”

"Favorite classmates? I like Song Xuan in our class the most......"

"Male or female?"

"Male classmate, it's my best friend......"

"Oh, it's a male classmate." Xia Youran looked lost.

"You shouldn't be gossiping about something, you bastard...... Bai Xiao stopped and looked up at Xia Youran.

"No, I'm just concerned about you." Xia Youran touched Bai Xiao's head, "Cherish that friend named Song Xuan, maybe he will become your lifelong wealth in the future, friends are much more precious than money or something." ”

What Xia Youran said was really not wrong at all. Although she has few friends now, those friends are real friends, and she will definitely help when she is in trouble.

"......" Of course, Bai Xiao is still too young now, and he doesn't understand what Xia Youran is referring to at all, and he looks like he doesn't understand.

"Today, Bai Ze called."

"What, big brother, he always calls when I'm not there, I haven't talked to him for a long time." Bai Xiao pouted and said.

"He said he's coming back soon."

"Really, really? Big brother, is he coming back? So is Ah Hao also together? Bai Xiao jumped around Xia Youran excitedly.

"I guess we'll be back together, the two of them are like conjoined babies." Xia Youran didn't think about it, and blurted out directly.

"That's great...... So how long can you stay this time back? ”

"He hasn't said this yet, at least he will stay for ten days and half a month."

"Then, when they come back, let's go out and play!"

"Well, where do you want to go......"

"Seaside...... I want to pick up shells and pile castles, and I'll already be able to swim fifty meters...... It should be no problem to swim nearby......" Bai Xiao seems to have such a plan at a very early age, whether it is Bai Ze or Xia Youran, they are always over-spoiled by this child. Despite this, the child is still restrained at every turn, and rarely wants anything willfully.

"Okay, you can go wherever you go." Xia Youran took Bai Xiao's hand again, there were a lot of cars recently, and she was still a little worried about him jumping around on the side of the road, after all, he was just a child, and his way of thinking was completely different from that of adults, so Xia Youran always came from his temperament.

"Xia Youran!" A short woman trotted up in stiletto heels.

"......" For the girl in front of him who was still a head shorter than himself even if she was wearing high heels, Xia Youran couldn't remember where she had seen this person.

"Hello Mr. Chen!" Bai Xiao looked at the woman in front of her and greeted politely.

"Oh, it's a teacher!" Xia Youran thought so secretly in her heart, but smiled politely at her, waiting for what she was going to say.

The short girl looked a little out of breath because she trotted for a while, "I just observed you for a long time, you are really Xia Youran!" “

"Yes, I'm Xia Youran, what's wrong?"

"Don't you know me?"

"......" Xia Youran used what little brain stock he had to constantly search for possible names, but no matter what, he couldn't think of the name related to this woman, just now Xiao called this person 'Teacher Chen', that is to say, this person's surname is Chen, could it be that they have met before, but why is there no impression at all?

"I, Chen Qingqing, sat at your front table for a whole year when I was a freshman in high school, did I forget?"

"Oh, Qingqing, why are you here?" Xia Youran only remembered at this time the girl who was known as 'Gen No. 2' who had sat at the table in front of her, and the reason why she forgot it was because her attention was all on the other person that year.

"I'm here to teach English ...... in the lower grades"

"What a coincidence, that means you are Bai Xiao's English teacher in their class?" Although the two used to be classmates, they are not so familiar now, and when they talk, they are still those blunt polite words.

"Yes, that's right."

"We Bai Xiao didn't cause you any trouble, this kid is very naughty." Xia Youran really didn't know how to alleviate the embarrassment in front of him, the teachers in the primary school seemed to be a little different from the kindergarten, the kindergarten was more casual, and the primary school was much more serious.

"It's nothing, this kid isn't very naughty at school, actually, I have something else to do with you." Chen Qingqing quickly explained her intentions, and she didn't even want to waste more time on polite words.

"If there's anything, just say it." Xia Youran probably vaguely felt that if it was something in the school, as a teacher, he would not run up to him out of breath after school to stop him, he could do it with just a phone call.

"At the end of next month, our high school class is going to hold a class reunion, and no one has your contact information, so I finally ran into you, so I thought I'd like to let you know. Class reunion, will you come? At the end of the sentence, she added.

"When?" Her sincere eyes make it difficult to refuse, Xia Youran has never known how to refuse others, and when she said this, she could only acquiesce, and then politely asked the time.

"Count the number of people who come, and then determine the time, which will be about the end of the next month. Were you available at that time? ”

"Probably......" Xia said with a smile.

"Bring your phone." Chen Qingqing stretched out his hand towards Xia Youran.

"What?"

"Cell phone!"

"Oh, okay......" Xia Youran reacted after a while, then took out his mobile phone from his bag and handed it to Chen Qingqing.

Chen Qingqing quickly entered a string of numbers on it, and then pressed the dial key, "This is my number, I will inform you of the time and address when the time comes." I have something else to do, so let's go first! After she handed the phone back to Xia Youran, she turned around and left.

Chen Qingqing was like a gust of wind, coming and going fast, leaving Xia Youran alone and stunned in place, if Bai Xiao hadn't pulled her clothes, I don't think she would have reacted.

"Xia Youran, do you know Teacher Chen?"

"I guess so, I probably already know who she is."

"Are you a friend?"

"Probably...... Isn't it......" she replied quietly, staring at the figure.
