Chapter 12: A Worried Heart
The night breeze caresses the banks of the March River, and the secluded water ripples with the clear glow of the moonlight.
Qiu Zichuan sat quietly by the locust forest between the bank slopes, came home from school in the afternoon, and after a hurried dinner, he came here early. After the last class in the afternoon, when she walked out of the classroom, Shui Xiaolin stood at the door of her classroom and hurriedly said: Old place at night! I walked away without looking back!
So strict! I look very unhappy!
What's wrong with her?
Qiu Zichuan had a faint uneasy premonition in his heart! I've never seen Shui Xiaolin look like this!
It's been more than three weeks, and she suddenly seems to start hiding from herself, and during many recesses, she always stands at the door of their classroom, and seems to be watching herself from afar, but whenever she finds out, she is in a hurry to turn back!
In the past, she took the initiative to ask herself, and often complained that she didn't take the initiative.
She doesn't like me anymore?
No, it won't! On the last date, she also said that she would be admitted to the same university together, and when the time came, they would walk into the university hand in hand, and she also said that when she was old in the future, she would take her hand and go for a walk together in the evening!
Why is that?
Also, it's been three weeks, why hasn't she made an appointment with herself once!
Didn't you say yes! In order not to affect my studies, I will not go on a date once a week in the future, but once every two weeks, so as not to be discovered by my classmates or accidentally seen by adults!
But she shouldn't have missed the appointment! I waited here all night last Saturday!
If she doesn't like me anymore, she can sue me!
She can write me notes, and she can write me letters. She knows that I, Qiu Zichuan, am not the kind of boy who grinds and chirps! As long as she says it, I just like her again, and I feel uncomfortable! I'm not going to pester her!
So why would she not like me?
Is it because I'm not good-looking? Not handsome? It shouldn't be! Although I don't like to look in the mirror since I was a child, whether it is my uncle and aunt in the miscellaneous courtyard, or the former teachers, they all say that they are particularly sunny and handsome, and I remember that the art teacher in junior high school also said that although he has a single eyelid, he has a unique sense of line with the high straight nose bridge
Is it because I'm not like a man? Petty and stingy! Like the girls who my classmates often like to laugh at, the boys are fake women, but I'm not! That fight for her, I didn't have the slightest timidity and bravery! She also said that she likes my tall and thin look, like a man!
Is that because I don't study well? That's not it! In the first week of entering the school, I was the sixth in the whole grade in the unified test for all freshmen! She's only sixteen! And since the beginning of school, every time I write a sample essay for the grade, but she only has one time! I still describe the scenery of the Bund in Shanghai, but the students have never been there!
So why else?
Could it be that she is starting to look down on herself now? She is from Shanghai, and she has been living in a big city with her grandmother and grandfather, who are also university professors! She attended both elementary and junior high school in Shanghai. Did she just think that everything here was fresh at first, and even she made her feel fresh! And now you feel bored?
But she's not that kind of girl!
She said that all people should be equal, and she also said that people and small animals should also be equal! She said that she had announced that everyone's dignity should be the same, and no one has the right to look down on others!
Besides, the last time they were together, she said that she liked to see how she didn't care about anything! Also, she often dreams of her nonchalant demeanor in her dreams. She also said that this look fascinated her!
Also, there will be a winter vacation in two weeks, she said that she is going back to Shanghai this winter vacation, and it is the first time that she has been away from her grandparents for so long, and her grandparents will miss it very much!
She won't be going back to Shanghai to study, right?
She won't be back after the winter break! Is she here to say goodbye to herself tonight? Then she doesn't have to do this!
Could it be that they look down on our family? Her father is a city leader, and her mother is the secretary of the school!
Thinking of this, Qiu Zichuan's young heart suddenly began to be full of uneasiness and a little inferiority, his mother was just an ordinary salesperson in the store, and his father had died a long time ago, and he was just a warehouse keeper in a factory before he died. But my parents studied very well when they were young, but it was only because my grandfather and grandfather were capitalists that they couldn't go to college.
Could it be because our family used to be capitalists?
But if that's the case, no matter how much I like her, I can't be with her anymore, my mother said that you must have backbone to be a man!
But Shui Xiaolin won't be that kind of person!
……
Qiu Zichuan's heart began to think crankily because Shui Xiaolin hadn't dated him for three weeks! Especially this week, I was distracted in class several times, and I was called up by the teacher twice! But I can't stop thinking about what happened to her!
But he knew that he liked Shui Xiaolin too much!
I don't know what's going on with myself.,When I was in junior high school.,There were male and female classmates in the class who secretly handed notes.,But I always felt that it was not good.,What's the point of playing with female classmates!
But since I met Shui Xiaolin, I have been constantly attracted to her, I like to see her laugh and listen to her! Even her naughtiness, as well as her crying, I like it!
But what Qiu Zichuan didn't know was that on the third day when Shui Xiaolin gave him the pull-back shoes, as soon as class was in the afternoon, a woman appeared outside the window of his classroom, this woman quietly looked at the class in the classroom through the window, and finally stopped at Qiu Zichuan who was sitting in the last row, but only stopped for a moment.
Because the school leaders often check the situation of each class from time to time, the students who are used to it also know that the more they are at this time, the more they must listen carefully to the class.
This woman is none other than the school secretary and Shui Xiaolin's mother!
As soon as her daughter returned to Tanchi from Shanghai during the summer vacation, she ran out all day and night, and Shui Xiaolin's mother didn't think much about it at first, thinking that children are curious about everything when they arrive in a new place, and they always like to go around to see it. But not long after the start of school, she felt a strangeness from her daughter's expression, she felt a kind of excitement in her daughter, and a kind of mystery!
At the age of fifteen or sixteen, it is the flowering season when the girl is ignorant and lovely! Could it be?
Shui Xiaolin's mother is extremely observant and extremely sensitive, not to mention that she is also a veteran leader who has been engaged in ideological and political work for many years, and she keenly feels that her daughter is in love!
So, on this sensitive night, she returned home when Shui Xiaolin was studying at night. Soon, she found Shui Xiaolin's notebook in Shui Xiaolin's bedroom drawer. After her daughter returned from Shanghai, she gave her the key to the drawer, but kept one for herself. She believes that she has the right to discipline her daughter, and she should have this means.
Shui Xiaolin's mother was shocked!
Shui Xiaolin's notes not only recorded the whole process of her acquaintance and fall in love with Qiu Zichuan, but also recorded Shui Xiaolin's passionate obsession and affectionate infatuation with Qiu Zichuan in her heart and dreams!
What can't be tolerated by Shui Xiaolin's mother is that Shui Xiaolin's notes also write that Qiu Zichuan's family is a capitalist. She didn't know that her daughter had been in Shanghai all these years, and she had openly heard people say that capitalists and landlords were not good things, but in private she was still envious of who was a capitalist in the past, and who had overseas connections, and now they have all been connected, and how they have sent a lot of money and strange things.
And the daughter's notes also reveal a good impression and yearning for capitalists!
Calf love! Or the descendants of the capitalists! The black five categories on the political zhì! After the shock, Shui Xiaolin's mother was furious!
But experience tells her that she must be calm in everything, and this matter must be cut through the mess quickly, but also dealt with coldly. Otherwise, the extremes of things will not be said, if there is any more impact, it will be embarrassing for the daughter to herself! Not to mention the children's learning and learning environment, after all, he is still the secretary of a school! How will this work after that? How can you go to the teacher and the student to explain the truth again!
Back in the office, Shui Xiaolin's mother called Shui Xiaolin's father who was on the waterfront, and Shui Xiaolin's father was also very shocked! My daughter has only been back for a few days!
But he also told Shui Xiaolin's mother to calm down and not talk to her daughter until he returned home on Saturday.
As soon as she got to work the next day, Shui Xiaolin's mother called Qiu Zichuan's head teacher to her office in the name of learning about the outstanding students, and inquired about Qiu Zichuan's family situation in detail.
In the afternoon, there was the scene just now.
When Shui Xiaolin's mother saw Qiu Zichuan for the first time, she couldn't help but feel a trace of amazement in her heart! This kid is really clean and sunny! And the learning is very good!
But then, puppy love must not be allowed! What's more, he is still a descendant of capitalists, such a thought quickly made the happiness that just flashed on Shui Xiaolin's mother's face disappear!
When her eyes moved away from Qiu Zichuan's face, she felt a sigh of disdain in her heart: "The children of the "Black Five" family still want to fall in love with our daughter, that is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat, and you don't look at your background! The person our daughter is looking for in the future must be red and dedicated, what are you!
Even if we say that we don't talk about the theory of descent or our background, that is only an expedient measure for the sake of doing a good job in economic construction, and at most it will only give you some need to release your ability and arouse your enthusiasm, and the party's political power will never let you enter, and it is still impossible for you to do anything in politics.
What kind of parent family is this, and how to raise such children? It's really unbelievable! No wonder people often say that most children from single-parent families are poorly educated, and this is true!
Thinking of this, Shui Xiaolin's mother sneered in her heart and began to piggyback and mock Qiu Zichuan's family and mother.
……
Why hasn't she come yet?
Whether it's in the classroom or reading at home, as long as you think of Shui Xiaolin, Mimi's watery eyes, upturned little nose, and pointed little mouth come to mind!
She's so white, and her lips are so red! Especially when she teases herself, she always tilts her head to the side, and she talks softly, but when she laughs, it is as crisp as a copper bell!
And her slightly curly hair, which looks so good floating on her forehead!
Qiu Zichuan, who was sitting on the grass by the locust tree, saw the scene of his first acquaintance and love with Shui Xiaolin in front of him!
