2. Ten years ago (2)

A sun umbrella is essential to go out on a sunny day, and in the furnace of Wuhan, this is almost as natural as wearing shoes when you go out every morning. According to www.biquge.info survey, if it weren't for the fact that the umbrella seemed too girly, most boys would also want to go out with an umbrella. After all, this is a city that can make African students so hot that they want to return to China for the summer. If a boy wants to play an umbrella and feels embarrassed, then go find a girlfriend, in the summer of up to half a year, you can hug your sister without basking in the sun, how to kill two birds with one stone.

In Lu Yu's imagination, at this moment, Zhou Zhou Nuo was holding an umbrella, all his fingers were occupied, and his two legs were desperately speeding up the frequency to get rid of the time spent outside, and he was running towards them with food and water.

And the truth and imagination will always be a little different, last night told He Qianlin to bring an electric fan, but Zhou Zhou Nuo changed the manuscript materials in a small bag, and the parasol was put in the schoolbag and forgotten in the bedroom. So at this time, she could only try to find a shady place to move forward. Whenever the hot wind blows in the shade of the trees, the sweat evaporates, and the discomfort caused by the summer heat can be slightly relieved.

Zhou Zhou looked up at the sky and pleaded for a heavy rain to drench the unbearable heatwave.

She carried a bag in both hands, a total of six boxes of three meals in her right hand, a bottle of Coke and two oversized cups of lemon green tea in her left hand, and a bottle of Pepsi in her hand. Lu Yu of Aquarius is a big water tank, and one bottle is simply not enough to drink. Ice Coke just acts as a cooling artifact, and it is extremely comfortable after being cold and close, but unfortunately the contact surface is too small, so you can only apply it to your forehead and then to your cheeks. It's so hot that people even have the heart to rush into the cold storage, but it's a pity that the idlers in that place are not allowed to enter. As for how much cool air is left after going back, I can't care about it.

Like other medical schools, Tongji Medical College has its own affiliated hospitals, of which Tongji Hospital is integrated with the school, making transportation in the vicinity miserable. Especially at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, the flow of doctors and patients in and out can no longer be described as endless. No matter how high-end the so-called car is, it can't compare to the speed of the legs. This inch of land is bordered by one of the largest business districts in the city, surrounded by food streets and parks, the only disadvantage is that the campus is really small, and everyone feels uncomfortable after living in the East District for a year and moving here.

Now, more than half a year later, medical students have gained the convenience of the bustling environment in the surrounding area that they have not enjoyed before. Another advantage of a small campus is that you don't have to walk too far, which is a great location advantage in the hot summer.

Raising his hand to wipe his face, Zhou Zhou Nuo's afterglow found a car driving beside him. The black Audi A6 is dull and low-key, and the only conspicuous thing is the military license plate with red letters in front of it.

Every time he sees something related to the army, Zhou Zhou Nuo can't help but look at it for a while, such as the military jeep speeding by on the road, the armed police on duty with combat boots on duty at the train station, and the military cadets in straight uniforms on the bus. Grandpa is a veteran of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and Zhou Zhou Nuo has been led by him to cross the Yalu River with great courage since he was a child, and he has heard a lot of stories about various military themes. Dad also served as a soldier for a few years in the past, and even his uncle was a demobilized officer, although he didn't look red and specialized, but at least he was nurtured and had a deep-rooted complex for the army, so Zhou Zhou Nuo had a natural affection for soldiers since he was a child. And the most important thing is that the military uniform or something, I think it's beautiful when you look at it.

I don't know if it's because I looked at it twice, the car actually stopped in front of me. Immediately afterward, the windows were rolled down, and a chill erupted.

I really want to lean over and feel the coolness of the air conditioner, Zhou Zhou thought silently.

"Hello classmates, please ask, how to get to Xueziyuan 502?" The driver poked his head over, his right hand rested on the back seat of the passenger seat, short hair, a pair of sunglasses covering his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a polite smile.

At this moment, this asking for directions is tantamount to heaven for Zhou Zhounuo, she half-leaned down, her face facing the car window, feeling the coolness of the car overflowing inside and outside. She looked at the other party with a smile on her face, and raised her right hand to show how to turn with great seriousness, but the large carrying pocket of her right hand provided enough gravity to accurately express the specific direction of the front, back, left and right, and kept dangling around the center of the circle with the point tied to her finger.

The man didn't seem to understand, he frowned slightly, nodded with doubt, and didn't drive away immediately, but stopped on the side of the road, patiently waited for Zhou Nuo to moisten his lips with his tongue, and said it again from beginning to end.

Until many years later, Cheng Ziming can clearly remember what it was like to see Zhou Nuo for the first time. It was a June weekend afternoon, and at the dinner table, my aunt said that Lu Yu was still busy with the student union at school, and rushed over to attend his grandfather's birthday banquet in the evening. After lunch, he was idle and promised the elders to pick up Lu Yu. I didn't understand which nerve I was wrong that day, so he drove the uncle's guard car and traveled dozens of kilometers to pick up his cousin at school. Several of their brothers have been making trouble since childhood, and Lu Yu was bullied by Cheng Ziming a lot when he was a child. Maybe it's because I think that although this cousin is playful, he is well-behaved enough. Maybe it was because of his grandfather's birthday that day, he hoped that the family would reunite sooner, and hoped that Lu Xiaohuobao would go back early to make his grandfather happy. Maybe it was because he was about to leave school to go to the army, and when he was about to leave, he realized that there was very little time left for his family.

So he went out with a complicated mood, so crazy that he didn't even make a phone call to Lu Yu along the way, so he set off directly to find him. Time is very abundant, it is not a big deal to block it for a while, and the thought of scaring Xiaoyu can scare him later, Cheng Ziming's mood improves. If he found out that he was not at school, in the blink of an eye, he had already thought of three ways to torture the little rabbit.

Entering the school gate, Cheng Ziming found that it was more stupid to find Lu Yu's bedroom by himself than to run wild without saying hello today, he saw a little girl carrying food on the side of the road, and stepped on the brakes beside her.

It was a little girl with her short hair tucked behind her ears and a sweet smile that showed off her ears, wearing a plain white T-shirt, denim shorts and canvas sneakers, revealing her fair and slender legs. After the direct sunlight, her cheeks were a little red, there were sweat stains sliding down her cheeks from the corners of her forehead, she was carrying several plastic bags in her hands, her big eyes were shining, and she showed enough enthusiasm and patience in the face of a strange young man's asking for directions.

Seeing that the strange man nodded in understanding, Zhou Zhou Nuo walked around to the front of the car, glanced at the license plate number, and then walked back to the door and smiled, "Why don't I take you there, I'll go to 502 too." ”

Cheng Ziming was a little surprised, how could the current girl be so insecure, casually get into a stranger's car, what should she do if she encounters a robbery. After thinking about it, she was not a robber, and she had also seen the license plate, so she was not too heartless. In just two seconds, his mind had already circled.

Seeing that he didn't nod, Zhou Zhou Nuo thought he didn't agree.

"If you're in a hurry, I'll take you faster," Zhou Zhou Nuo smiled again, a few white teeth neatly aligned, she waved her hand, a little sorry, "I don't mean anything else." ”

is just a simple and harmless enthusiastic girl, Cheng Ziming didn't agree immediately, but subconsciously pressed the door lock button. He lifted his sunglasses, nodded at Zhou Nuo, and motioned for her to come in.

Sitting in the car, Zhou Nuo was instantly surrounded by air conditioning, hot and cool for a long time, really comfortable, and happy in life, but that's it. She put her bag at her feet and pulled out her phone to read the text messages.

"Turn left at the intersection in front," the mobile phone was attached to his ear, Lu Yu on the other end of the phone cut off the ringtone, Zhou Zhou Nuo hung up decisively and stuffed the mobile phone back into his pocket.

Although the medical school campus is small, there are many turns, and with a guide, the road is much easier. Along the way, except for Zhou Zhou Nuo to guide the way, the two tacitly did not make any sound. Before the car stopped, Cheng Ziming saw Lu Yu standing at the gate on the first floor looking left and right, not knowing who he was waiting for. This kid has really long hair. When was the last time you saw him? It seems to be a tomb sweep on the Qingming Festival. Although they are cousins, the frequency of the two meeting is actually not too high.

As soon as the car stopped, Zhou Zhou Nuo smiled and thanked him, telling the person who came that this was 502, but it was better to park the car to the side, otherwise there would be some blockage at the door.

originally planned to call Lu Yu first, but the girl next to him thanked politely first. Cheng Ziming smiled and thanked Zhou Zhounuo, and after she got out of the car, he turned his head and reversed the car, while paying attention to Lu Yu's movements.

Lu Yu stood on the steps, just looking at the pedestrians on the road, he didn't think that Zhou Zhou Nuo would get out of the car, and thought that this girl was teasing him and deliberately tricked him into waiting downstairs for a while. He pulled out his phone and found that only three minutes had passed.

Zhou Zhou Nuo's hands were full, and he shouted at the staircase, "Xiao Yuzi, this way!" ”

Seeing Zhou Yinuo, Lu Yu strode over and took the bag in her hand, he smiled flatteringly, "It's hard work, it's so hot." ”

"Now, your Coke." Zhou Zhou Nuo handed the bottle of Coke in his hand to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu took it and screamed strangely, "Dead glutinous rice, you play my ice cola again!" ”

Zhou Zhou Nuo smiled, with a sly smile and a smart gaze, "Can you drink well?" After walking for so long, I finally had something cooler, and I couldn't catch the super large cup that Lime Green wanted. ”

Seeing that the two were about to go upstairs, Cheng Ziming rang the horn, successfully attracting Lu Yu and Zhou Zhou Nuo to turn back at the same time.

found out that it was the Audi, Zhou Zhou Nuo was a little confused, as if he had already thanked him? Looking down and searching, the phone and money are still there, and nothing has been left behind.

"Oh ho!!" Lu Yu beside him was already extremely excited.

He staggered to the driver's seat, "Crutch! How are you coming! ”

Cheng Ziming looked up at his cousin, who was three years younger, "Come up and talk, it's quite hot outside." ”

Seeing Lu Yu get into the car, Zhou Zhou Nuo realized that the man in the car was looking for Lu Yu. He was wearing sunglasses, he didn't look very old, and he didn't know how to surprise Lu Yu like this. Zhou Nuo wanted to go upstairs to the activity room to wash his face, remembering that all the food and drink were in Lu Yu's hands, and he didn't know how long he would have to talk to the man in sunglasses, so he had no choice but to take out his mobile phone and call Lu Yu, saying that he would go up first.

"Oh, okay, I'll be right up." Hanging up the phone, Lu Yu was still immersed in the shock of Cheng Ziming's sudden appearance.

"Okay, what's the point. My aunt asked me to bring you an air conditioning fan, in the trunk, I'll take it for you? Cheng Ziming pushed his sunglasses above his head and looked at Lu Yu with a smile.

"I'll have to bring them the food first, or you can wait for me in the car for a while, and I'll go talk to them." The time to go home is early, and today's task may be a bit heavy for Zhou Zhou Nuo alone.

"Brother Ziming, can you wait for me?" Lu Yu asked embarrassedly.

"How long?"

looked at the display screen, it was already half past one, counting the time for eating, it was so far to go to grandpa's house, and I would definitely have to leave early for fear of traffic jams, Lu Yu summed it up and said, "It's almost two hours, the task is a bit heavy, if I leave now, Nuomi is estimated to have to work until night alone." ”

"Glutinous rice? Is that the girl who bought you food just now? Cheng Ziming asked.

Lu Yu nodded, it is estimated that Brother Ziming saw himself taking something from her just now, "She is my partner, let's draw a big board together." I had a short working day today, and she helped me a lot. ”

"Oh, then you go get busy, I'll find a place to park the car and sleep for a while, and call me when you're ready." Cheng Ziming yawned, the forty-minute road had been driven for more than an hour, and he was really a little sleepy.

Lu Yu closed the door and got out of the car, Cheng Ziming remembered something, rolled down the window, "By the way, thank you for me, that glutinous rice classmate, if you have the opportunity, I will invite her to dinner." ”

Back in the activity room, Lu Yu learned that Zhou Zhou Nuo met Cheng Ziming who asked for directions on the road just now and brought him over. After paraphrasing Cheng Ziming's words, Lu Yu sighed heavily, hey.

"Why are you sighing?" He Qianlin chewed the fish-flavored shredded meat and was very puzzled.

"It's nothing, it's just that someone as good as my brother doesn't have a girlfriend." When I saw Cheng Ziming just now, he seemed to be thinner than in April.

Thinking of the man in sunglasses just now, Zhou Zhou Nuo put chopsticks and hot and sour potato shreds into the bowl, "You don't need to eat or anything, but I sincerely wish your brother to find a girlfriend quickly." ”

Lu Yu's cheeks were bulging and he couldn't stop nodding.

The three of them quickly finished lunch and continued to work. In order to be in a hurry, Lu Yu didn't even tell jokes, just buried himself in painting.

Outside the window, the acquaintance is still screaming tirelessly. In the car parked by the wall downstairs, the seats were flat, and Cheng Ziming was already asleep. At the moment, he enjoyed the leisure time of the afternoon, and these brief moments of calm became extremely rare in the next ten years of his life. And the bits and pieces of the past ten years have brought completely different changes to his entire life in an unpredictable way.
