The next day, the people of Xiangzhu City woke up to the sound of the rain beating on the glass like drums, and a heavy rain finally ended the sunny day that had lasted for twenty whole days, and the rain was cool, as if the sky had borrowed from winter, and generously invited the scorching heat to drink a large bottle of cold soda.
Liang Feng thought that today's game didn't have to continue, after all, it was Yi Xuejia who was "paired" with him, she had no enthusiasm for "pretending to be in love", and the two of them didn't need to rely on such a forcibly drawn lineup to enhance their friendship, they usually played together, but they didn't expect to receive a text message from her urging him to go downstairs before eight o'clock in the morning.
In fact, she had already texted last night and said, "See you tomorrow!! - Three exclamation marks - Liang Feng had never seen Yi Xuejia so eager to meet him, he felt strange in his heart, but he didn't think much about it, she was an active person, maybe she thought of something fun to go to, so she couldn't wait.
At about half past eight, Liang Feng washed his face and brushed his teeth, boiled two eggs for his father, and made a bowl of noodles with two rape sticks floating on it, and then he quickly ate a bowl of somen noodles without oil and water and shouted to the bedroom, "Dad! Up! β
Just as Liang Feng was about to go out, Liang Shugong, who had a pair of dark circles and big bags under his eyes, came out yawning, and after glancing at the table, he immediately shouted at his son: "Wait a minuteβwhat have you eaten?" Do you eat eggs? You're a golfer, eat more. As he spoke, he walked quickly to the green-skinned and rusty refrigerator, opened the door, took out a carton of milk, and turned to walk towards Liang Feng.
"Eaten." Liang Feng replied, "I won't play today." β
"Who are you going to play with?" Liang Shugong stuffed the milk into Liang Feng's hand and smiled innocently, "Is it Jiajia again?" β
Liang Feng put the milk into his pocket and didn't answer.
"I like Jiajia, she is very cheerful, can she become our daughter-in-law in the future?" Liang Shugong turned around with a smile and went to open the refrigerator again, "Wait a while, I'll get another milk, and you give it to Jiajia." β
"No, Dad, I'll just give it to her, I've just drunk it." Liang Feng stopped him, "Don't make such jokes, especially don't say it in front of Yi Xuejia and her family." β
"How?" Liang Shugong was stunned for a moment, and then a little dissatisfied, "It's just a joke, why can't you tell it?" β
When their father and son stood at the door and spoke, a very soft sound came from behind them, it turned out to be a cardboard box piled up behind the sofa and fell down, this two-bedroom hall was full of miscellaneous items collected by Liang Shugong, stacks of cardboard boxes, paper shells, newspapers and magazines, and empty bottles and cans that tripped people over from time to time, as well as waste solid wood, iron household items, he hoarded enough to sell for money, while selling to the waste collectors, while bringing back more waste products, and many old things, Such as the clock of eight years, has been stopped, he is reluctant to throw away, the kitchen, toilet used to brush teeth enamel cups and hot water kettles and hanging towels are the product of more than nine years, the cup was originally printed with "Yazhi Electronic Parts Factory Model Employee", now worn out to the left of the word "work", Liang Shugong felt that this word was like his personal signature, has been careful not to rub it.
Liang Feng didn't like this room where he had been "parasitic" since he was a child, and it was described as parasitic because people were standing in it, it really looked like a monster in its damp belly, maybe there were too many accumulations in the room, compared to Yi Xuejia's house with sunlight all over the floor, this room seemed impermeable, black and pressed all year round, and the humidity was also very heavy, making people feel like a ball of plastic stuffed in their chests.
"Who would want to be our daughter-in-law." Liang Feng said sullenly, "If you come, you will endure hardship, and no one is so stupid." β
"What do you mean!" Liang Shugong was in a hurry, he was as tall as Liang Feng, but his back was bent a little because he was not often outdoors, so his skin was not dark, but the whole person had tight and slender muscles, like an old tree with evaporated water, he raised his hand and slapped Liang Feng's shoulder - "Bang!" The voice was like a withered vine whipped against the flesh, "Who said that?" Who looks down on people so much? You tell me. β
"Nobody said." Liang Feng stood still, like a shield willing to be beaten.
"Feng Feng, we are the only ......two of us in our family" Liang Shugong also felt that he was a little out of shape in front of his son, after losing his wife, he always wanted to be a role model in his son's heart, so he continued to learn and explore how to be a good father, he adjusted his mentality and slowed down the speed of speech, "When it comes to material conditions, we really can't do it, it's not as good as others, but we are poor, one day, we can improve our conditions through our own hands, don't worry, be a good person, be a kind person, Don't have so many desires in your heart, take it one step at a time, okay? β
"I know, Dad." Liang Feng nodded, there was no expression on his face, these words, he had heard them since he was a child, there was nothing new, Liang Shugong repeated them regularly like a repeater.
Liang Shugong patted Liang Feng's shoulder again and rubbed it again, as if he regretted the slap he had just given him so hard, and then turned around.
Liang Feng looked at the white hair on the back of his father's head and his taroso T-shirt that had been washed off, and his heart was mixed, and he gently closed the door and walked down the stairs.
Arriving at the parking shed in the community according to the agreed place and time, Liang Feng saw that Yi Xuejia had been standing there waiting for him for a long time, the tip of the umbrella she was holding in her hand had long since stopped dripping, and he walked in while collecting the umbrella, "Hey! Say hello.
Yi Xuejia, who was standing in the shadows, also walked towards him quickly, and after the shadow faded, Liang Feng found that her expression was puffed up.
Without waiting for Liang Feng to ask, "What's wrong?" Yi Xuejia had already rushed up and smashed the folding umbrella in his right hand and his left hand with a fist, "Are you sick?" What are you mad about? She yelled at him.
"Huh? Alas? Alas? Liang Feng raised his hands to cover her fists left and right, and asked innocently, "What's wrong?" Alas? Don't, you don't, you don't fight first-"
"Is there a case like you? How could I have thought you were such a person! Yi Xuejia's anger was very real, and there was no element of playfulness, "I thought you were a good guy!" β
Although Yi Xuejia is beating him with all his strength, but Liang Feng, who usually trains a body of steel and iron bones for the game, will not be bothered by the girl's fist, this punch is not as painful as a basketball smashed on his body, but he can't bear it for no reason, so he quickly stretched out his hand, grabbed her slender wrist, and yelled: "Yi Xuejia!" β
Yi Xuejia was stunned, because she usually saw that Liang Feng was always silent, and she never imagined that this one-meter-eighty-five boy roared loudly like a lion on the grassland, and the whole air shook, and even she had the illusion that the heavy rain paused for him for a second.
"Before you hit me, you told me what I did wrong?" He didn't glare at her either, but looked aggrieved and confused.
Yi Xuejia struggled twice, and found that her wrist was like being stuck between a huge steel machine, and she was facing a completely completely suppressed physical force as a human being, and she couldn't move, her eyes widened in surprise, because before the age of twelve, she often fought with boys, and she was half a head taller than most of the opposite sex, and she could always beat those thin boys with snot to scream.
"Boys are terrible." - Zhou Linuo said this sentence - Now Yi Xuejia is clearly aware of the meaning, this "terrible" feeling does not come from the intentional persecution of men, but from the real difference in strength, once men intentionally persecute women, a girl who has not undergone any coping training is almost powerless to resist.
That's why Zhou Linuo was so angry at Liang Feng's behavior of easily beating her up horizontally, first, he was angry that he didn't ask her wishes, and second, the sense of loss of control she experienced in the arms of this giant tower made her panic - he could carry her to wherever he wanted to go - this sense of loss of control that could not be controlled by self-consciousness was the source of fear that made the proud Zhou Linuo lose self-confidence.
It is also the first time that Yi Xuejia finally realized the gender difference in the process of growing up, she has short hair and wears long pants, which is much taller than the average boy, and is often mistaken for a boy when she walks on the street. She had never thought about it before.
Yi Xuejia was even more angry, this anger was no longer pure, she was angry for Zhou Linuo and angry for herself, there was an element of annoyance and anger in it, she thought that she could no longer defeat boys of the same age in physical fitness, and she could no longer protect Zhou Linuo 100%, so she suddenly lost her mind and yelled: "I'll you!" Liang Feng! You let go! β
Liang Feng was stunned by her, and immediately let go of his hand, seeing that Yi Xuejia's forearm was left with clear red marks, he immediately panicked, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... IβI didn't know I was trying so hard, I just wanted you to calm down, youβDo you hurt? β
Yi Xuejia glared at him viciously and asked loudly: "What do you say?!" β
"I'm wrong, then you hit me." Liang Feng stretched out his palm.
Yi Xuejia, who was in a rage, wanted to rush into the rain, but thought that he hadn't yet sought justice for Zhou Linuo, so he walked back again, "You really don't know what wrong you made?" β
Liang Feng shook his head honestly.
"What did you do yesterday?" Yi Xuejia kept shaking his arms, trying to shake the hot feeling off his skin.
Liang Feng recalled for a moment and said, "I didn't do anything. β
This person may really not know what he shouldn't have done, if he doesn't make it clear to him, I'm afraid that he will provoke Zhou Linuo again in the future, even if it is not her, he will provoke another girl, and even be treated as a hooligan to call the police - thinking of this, Yi Xuejia decided not to detour - "Did you hug Zhou Linuo yesterday?" She said bluntly.
"Hugged." Liang Feng nodded, didn't seem to realize what was wrong, and confessed generously, "That's because there was a puddle of mud, and I didn't want her shoes to get muddy, so I hugged her for a few seconds." β
"Do you think you're a big pig's trotter? Pigs have brains better than you! Yi Xuejia pointed at him angrily and said, "Ancient people knew that men and women could not kiss each other. β
"Huh? You're going to hit me for this! Liang Feng exclaimed, "Didn't we grow up together?" When I was a child, I hugged you and fought every day, do you remember? At one point, I was wearing open crotch pants, and then you ......."
"It's not like a kid anymore!" Yi Xuejia interrupted him loudly, "We've grown up!" β
Liang Feng was like a puppy reprimanded by his master, his eyes were round, and he bit his tongue and stopped talking.
The downpour continues, this canopy is too old, it was built by Yi Xuejia when they were five or six years old, they have undergone tinkering, the surface of the shed is already brittle like a biscuit, and every raindrop seems to be able to break it through, in fact, there are already four or five water columns formed in this carport through the hole, like silver ice edges falling down one by one.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Liang Feng reacted after a while, and apologized with a sad look.
"Do you know what you're doing wrong?" Yi Xuejia let out a long sigh, in fact, she and he have been very close since childhood, although Liang Feng is the eldest of the six children, but she always feels a little like his sister, "the younger brother does not teach, the sister's fault", she has been used to scuffling together since childhood, she did not teach him, before touching the body of others, especially the opposite sex, you must ask the other party's wishes.
"I ......," he said, "I shouldn't hold Zhou Linuo, because I'm a man and she's a woman." β
"Wrong, if you reach out to shake someone's hand, and the other person doesn't stretch out his hand, you can only withdraw your hand." Yi Xuejia frowned, "You can't forcibly grab the other person's hand just because you want to shake hands with someone, this has nothing to do with men and women, this is the basic respect for others." β
Liang Feng nodded constantly, and spread his palms again: "You hit me." β
"If you don't fight, my hands hurt when I hit you." Yi Xuejia glanced at him, "Open the umbrella." β
Liang Feng raised the umbrella, Yi Xuejia walked forward like the queen mother, and Liang Feng followed behind like a respectful eunuch.
Back in the rain, Liang Feng asked, "Am I going to apologize to Zhou Linuo?" β
Yi Xuejia said: "No, don't annoy her in the future, you say that you are a person, don't be so anxious if you like her, just go and pick it up, you are a stinky hooligan, she will definitely not like you if you do this." β
"I don't like Zhou Linuo, I just like her, she doesn't like her, she's very beautiful, but I just treat her as a friend." Liang Feng was anxious, and quickly defended himself, "In the future, I will never like Zhou Linuo." β
"Cut." Yi Xuejia didn't believe it, "You'd better remember what you said today." β
