Chapter 79: The Leaves Are Pale, and the White Dew is Frost: Winter Night
He pursed his mouth and glared at her, could she let him get rid of the turtle in his life like this?
"I don't want it! Change one! He shoved the seal back into her hand, no turtles! Absolutely not!
The small movements of the two were clearly seen by Xiao Chengxing in the rearview mirror, and he couldn't help but interject, "Why is it bad?" That's it! Wooden homemade gifts make the most sense and are better than the bloodstones your mom gave you! At a young age, I am still a little parasite, so I have to use such a high-end one? Qinghe's craftsmanship is good, carve one for Uncle Xiao! ”
"Yes, Uncle Shaw." Ye Qinghe dragged the seal in his palm, his pink lips curved slightly, as if to say, love or not, don't you want me to take it back.
Xiao Yiting held his breath for a while, and finally snatched the seal over, muttering, "It's better than nothing...... 眭"
Because Ye Qinghe was burned, the place where the two of them studied was transferred from Xiao Yiting's room to her room, but Ye Qinghe's injured foot covered with ointment rested there, and he couldn't concentrate at all, so he asked her if it hurt for a while, and then reprimanded her again, just giving her a complete set of popular science and fighting knowledge......
She pointed to his book helplessly, "These are all for review!" Don't even think about turning on the computer if you don't complete the review task tonight! ”
He honestly picked up the book, read it for a while, or turned back to look at her feet, this night's review, it was really more than half past nine, and in the end, Ye Qinghe really didn't let him play the game with a calm face, he should have been angry, if he had put it aside, he would have been angry, but this night, for the first time, he didn't have awkward emotions, and even felt that it was nothing if he didn't play for a night... Felt...
"Okay, if you don't play, you won't play, and be careful not to stumble when you sleep." He said as he packed up his things and went back to his room. In his heart, there is a sense of guilt, if it weren't for saving him, his sister's foot wouldn't have hurt, so don't quarrel with her at this time, isn't it just a night game?
The fight incident was finally reported to the school, and everyone was unclear about the handling process, and the final result was that Fu Zhenyan automatically dropped out of school. The rumors on campus are just like what Fu Zhenyan said at the police station, because he couldn't get used to Xiao Yiting's high profile, and gathered gangsters from other schools to beat him.
As for Wang Zhe, he hasn't come to class for more than a week, and he hasn't seen him since that fight, which is very worrying.
I also asked Mr. Chen, but Mr. Chen said that Wang Zhe was on sick leave.
After this week, the scalded blistered places on Ye Qinghe's feet have scabbed, and they are basically almost better, Xiao Yiting planned to go to see Wang Zhe with Ye Qinghe, and it happened that Su Zhishan also wanted to go to see it, so the three of them made an appointment to go together after school.
No one has ever been to Wang Zhe's house, but just took the address that Su Zhishan copied from the class roster.
Following the directions, they came to a small alley.
There are still traces of old Beijing, lively and dilapidated courtyard houses, and children running in the hutongs, which make people feel as if they have suddenly crossed from the modern city.
The address in Su Zhishan's hand only hinted at this place, and no matter how detailed it was, there was no more, so they had to ask one by one, and finally, they found Wang Zhe's home in a small courtyard at the end of the alley.
This yard is a little older than the others, the mottled red paint on the gate, and the rust on the iron knocker all show that this yard has not been renovated for a long time.
When I walked into the courtyard, I saw that this small yard was full of all kinds of sundries, and the place where flowers should have been planted was full of old objects. According to the neighbors, Wang Zhe's home is the one at the east end of the courtyard.
"Wang Zhe! Wang Zhe! Xiao Yiting stood outside the door and shouted.
If this is Wang Zhe's house, then his house is quite clean, although the doors and windows are old, they are spotless.
The door opened, and it was Wang Zhe standing inside the door, still with gauze wrapped around his shoulders, with a surprised expression on his face, "You guys...... How did it come? ”
"Wang Zhe, you haven't been to school for a few days, and we don't know what's wrong with you, we're very worried." Su Zhishan said.
"I have already explained it to Mr. Chen, and Mr. Chen has also visited my home." Wang Zhe stood at the door, holding the door with his hand all the time, as if he didn't mean to let them in.
Xiao Yiting smiled, "Dude, aren't you going to let us in and sit down and have a cup of tea?" ”
Wang Zhe may not really mean this, he was a little embarrassed by Xiao Yiting, and in the end, he finally let go of his arm and opened the door.
"The house is very small and messy, don't dislike it." Wang Zhe's black and thin face was faintly flushed.
"How so? What do you say? Who are we with whom?! Xiao Yiting sat on the half-used cloth sofa of Wang Zhe's house.
The background color of the sofa is already very old, and it belongs to the kind of dark turbidity that can't be washed off the original color, but the Wang family has spread a layer of cloth on it.
Wang Zhe was a little flustered, looking around for a stool to sit on, and when he took out two square stools from another room, he found that Ye Qinghe and Su Zhishan were already sitting on the sofa.
"You ...... You two should sit here! He put down the square stool and wiped it with his hand, though there was no ash on it.
Su Zhishan glared at him, "Oh, what are you busy with?" It's all classmates! It's good that we're sitting here! Isn't your shoulder still hurting? Why move the stool! ”
"It's not...... Hehe......" Wang Zhe looked at his dirty sofa, and then looked at Ye Qinghe and Su Zhishan, it happened that both of them were wearing white tops today, and they couldn't help but smile bare-faced and lowered their heads.
"Wang Zhe, what are you still doing in a daze? Don't pour us water? Xiao Yiting is a boy, and after all, he is a half-old child, he can't understand Wang Zhe's mood at the moment, he came to him all the way, and his throat smoked, and he wanted to drink water.
"Oh yes, I forgot!" Wang Zhe stood up with a red face.
Su Zhishan said, "Xiao Yiting, didn't you see Wang Zhe hurt?" If you want to drink water, you won't pour it yourself? It's still a buddy! ”
At this time, another voice sounded, "Ah Zhe, who is coming?" ”
"Oh...... It's my classmate. Wang Zhe answered the door, and then said to a few of them, "It's my mother." ”
A middle-aged woman walked in from outside the door, with short ear-length hair, dressed plainly and cleanly, and had a very kind smile.
The three of them hurriedly stood up and called Auntie.
"It's Ah Zhe's classmate, please take a seat, I'll pour water for you!" This kid is really, not sensible at all! Wang Zhe's mother said and poured water.
The water poured by Wang Zhe's mother was filled in three different cups, one glass and two white porcelain cups.
Wang Zhe remembered the tea set at Su Zhishan's house during dinner, and also remembered that Xiao Yiting said that he had a habit of cleanliness, and his face was hot, and he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go out and buy three bottles of water." ”
"Wang Zhe! What are you doing? I'm dying of thirst, and when you come back from buying water, it won't smoke? Su Zhishan was the first to pick up the teacup.
Xiao Yiting finally understood, and couldn't help but look at Wang Zhe with disdain, "You kid really doesn't look like a gentleman!" After scolding, he also took a glass of water to drink, and at the same time put the last cup in his hand.
Ye Qinghe has never been a stinky person, if it weren't for Uncle Xiao, maybe she wouldn't even have such a life like Wang Zhe's family now, but Su Zhishan's performance surprised her, she originally thought that a girl with a family background like Su Zhishan, coupled with her own superior conditions, would have some Miss Qianjin's illness, but she turned out to be so bold in her bones with a delicate appearance.
Wang Zhe's mind was seen through, his face turned even redder, and he sat down with them.
There was a violent cough in the back room, and Wang Zhe said lightly, "That's my dad, sick." ”
The situation of Wang Zhe's family made several people fall silent for a while.
"Wang Zhe, when will you go back to school? It's not good that you're not playing at all! Xiao Yiting said with a smile, trying to liven up the atmosphere.
The expression on Wang Zhe's face became complicated, ashamed, embarrassed, and frustrated...... Everything.
"I ...... I don't plan to go to school anymore, I've already told Teacher Chen. In the end, it was difficult to say this to a good friend, which was more difficult than saying it in front of Mr. Chen.
"Wang Zhe, don't!" Su Zhishan put down the cup and was excited, making her delicate little face appear red, and her eyes were extraordinarily bright, "Wang Zhe, if there is any difficulty, we will help you overcome it together!" But don't give up, okay? ”
Wang Zhe is a boy, and this made him feel quite uncomfortable, and his face was a little ugly.
Xiao Yiting stood up and kicked him, "Don't pretend to be a man with me at this time!" There's no shame in helping a friend! If you can't cross the hurdle in case of trouble, it's a shame to retreat! ”
Kicked by him like this, Wang Zhe lowered his eyebrows and said, "Anyway, my grades are so poor, I am destined to fail the exam, and it will be a waste of money to continue reading." ”
"Bastard!" Xiao Yiting kicked him again, "Poor? Am I not bad? I can learn it, but you can't learn it? Wang Zhe, let me tell you, I want to get out of the red/light/zone for you to show this exam! You can do it, and you can! ”
A few of them called the last piece of the exam ranking red/light/zone, because the red light hung high......
However, Xiao Yiting never imagined that one day he would persuade others to study hard, and he would also take himself as an example......
Is this still him Xiao Yiting? Didn't he never take exams and universities into account?
Wang Zhe pulled the corners of his lips in embarrassment and did not speak.
Su Zhishan was in a hurry, stood up and stood between the two, "Xiao Yiting, don't kick people at every turn!" He's hurt! ”
"The man speaks, you give me the side!" Xiao Yiting didn't want to listen to her at all, so he pulled her away.
"Wang Zhe! It's buddy, you're going to give me a good time! You don't know my character yet? I hate grinding and chirping like this! Today we stay for dinner! Tell me what to say at the dinner table! After speaking, he said to the two girls, "You go and help Auntie do something, Su Zhishan, will you?" ”
He saw the situation of Wang Zhe's family, and he didn't want to distance himself from Wang Zhe, so he stayed for dinner to tell Wang Zhe that no matter what the situation of his family was, he would treat him as a brother, and there was no difference, but he didn't want to make trouble for the aunt of the Wang family, so he sent the girl to do things, and his sister was a decathlon and was good at everything, Su Zhishan couldn't say for sure......
"Yes...... Me will too! Su Zhishan hesitated.
"Then let's go!" He waved his hand and chased them away. Su Zhishan's reaction knew at a glance that she was not a person who could do things, but the absence of the girl made it convenient for him to talk to Wang Zhe.
So, during the time when the two girls walked away, Xiao Yiting learned that Wang Zhe's family was indeed very difficult, his father was bedridden all the year round, and his mother supported the family by setting up a stall in a tourist attraction.
Xiao Yiting listened and was silent.
Then, she opened Ye Qinghe's schoolbag on the sofa, took out her wallet, took out all the cash from it and counted it, fortunately, this girl also brought more than 1,000 yuan.
He put all the money in Wang Zhe's hands.
Wang Zhe wanted to postpone it, but Xiao Yiting held his hand, "This is for me and my sister to come to see Uncle Wang, which is what we should be when we are juniors, you treat me as a buddy, just be polite to me!" Also, if you really want to find something to do, I'll go back and ask my dad if there's a job that suits you, and you have to remember that it's part-time, not full-time, and you have to go back to school! Don't you want to ease the burden on your family? How can it help? How much money do you have to go out a month like this? Dude, we men have to make ourselves stronger to be worthy of the responsibilities of family! ”
Many people seem to be like this, when they educate others, they are the first to be the way, but they do not use the principles of educating others to guide their own direction......
After Xiao Yiting said this, he was surprised, was this what he Xiao Yiting said?
Wang Zhe smiled bitterly, "Thank you, brother!" ”
Knowing that he was not moved, Xiao Yiting continued, "No matter what, we have to go this road to the end, whether we win or lose, we must finish it, and a man will never give up halfway!" You tell me? Let my sister make up for you in the future, I, look at me, I was tortured by her! ”
For the first time, he felt grateful for his "inhuman life" in this half of his life; For the first time, I thought it was a good thing to be a role model......
"Let me ...... Think about it......" Wang Zhe looked at Xiao Yiting and said heavily.
"Tomorrow! I want to see you in the classroom! Give me less! Xiao Yiting arbitrarily gave him a death order, "As long as your uncle and aunt don't let you read it, you have to read it!" If there is resistance at home, I'll go and talk to them! ”
"No, don't go, it's my own idea......"
The door was pushed open at this moment, and Su Zhishan's pretty figure stood outside the door, "Wang Zhe, go back to study, we are all looking forward to your return." ”
Wang Zhe's eyes fell on Su Zhishan's snow-white coat, and in the dim twilight, such a whiteness spread out in front of his eyes, misty and bright......
When she went back, Su Zhishan said that she was going to her uncle's house, so she didn't go with them and took a bus in the opposite direction.
Xiao Yiting walked beside Ye Qinghe with his head down, and said, "Sister, we have no money, can we walk back?" ”
gave all the money to Wang Zhe, I don't know how angry this Grande sister will be, but he also secretly swore in his heart that if his sister was angry because of this incident, he would ...... Ignore this sister again!
On winter nights, the cold air hits people, and the white light reflected by the cold street lamps on the ground is also icy.
Ye Qinghe's attitude is the same as this light, quiet and light.
"Sister, talk to you!" There was impatience in his tone, what kind of attitude was it? Give it a look! "I gave it all to Wang Zhe! Big deal I won't have lunch next month! ”
Ye Qinghe suddenly stopped, turned around and stood in front of him, looking up at his face.
"How?" He's still a little weak-hearted......
Ye Qinghe suddenly stood on tiptoe and blew lightly on his face.
"What for?" He smelled a faint scent, and he was a little dizzy.
"See? The breath I exhaled was almost freezing! Don't hurry up and go! She said, curling her lips.
He was stunned in the faint fragrance, and finally reacted, but his sister was not angry! I couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Good! Let's go! Come, brother carries you! ”
In the days when her feet were not well, he carried her to and from school on his back, and he only put it down yesterday......
"I'm fine......"
Before she could finish her sentence, he was already carrying her on her back and strode forward. In fact, he said that he had no money to take the car, which was pure nonsense, not that he didn't even leave the car money, but at this moment, he was so happy that his sister understood his actions, and for no reason, he wanted to run wildly on the lonely street on a winter night behind her back......
Ye Qinghe was on his back, in the direction he couldn't see, the corners of his lips pulled up the arc of a smile, quiet, and beautiful......
