☆、chapter8 A person's first snow

In the first semester of the first year of high school, in the final exam, the student won the fifth place in the grade and the third place in the class.

God knows how hard it will take for a student from a village or town to compete with a student from a big city with superior resources.

Fortunately, her father taught her to develop good reading habits since she was a child, and she is well-read, and can almost do ten lines at a glance, so she will not be so difficult in terms of exams.

In retrospect, her father was really strict with her, and began to teach her to recite Tang and Song poems at the age of three, learning at least 2 poems a week.

What his father and Lin Zisheng have in common is probably that he attaches as much importance to her education as Lin Zisheng's cultivation of Zeguan.

Niansheng's good grades are very unexpected for Lin Zisheng and Song Yishu, perhaps in their eyes, she looks a little wooden, not like those good students in big cities who have excellent grades to shine.

It's like picking up a treasure on the side of the road, even if the treasure is only worth a few dollars, I am very happy, because the reason for the happiness is that surprise, and Song Yishu and Lin Zisheng's happiness is similar to this feeling.

They thought about what reward they wanted to give her, and finally discussed it and decided to travel to Yunnan for more than a week.

At dinner, Lin Zisheng told Nian Sheng about this surprise: "In order to reward the students for their excellent results in the final examination, I discussed with Yi Shu, and the whole family went to Yunnan for nine days!" ”

Zeguan applauded very cooperatively: "Yay! Great! You can go to Yunnan to play. ”

Nian Sheng chewed the food in her mouth and swallowed it carefully, and she said glutinously: "I'm sorry, I have promised to help a friend with homework during the winter vacation." ”

Lin Zisheng: "You can finish going and come back to tutor her, are you in such a hurry?" I won't be able to raise my grades for a while. ”

Nian Sheng put down the dishes and chopsticks and said lightly: "Yes, because it will be difficult to improve for a while and a half, so I don't want to lose a few more days." ”

Lin Zi was speechless.

Song Yishu said with an empathetic expression: "Nian Sheng agreed to his classmates first, and it may not be easy to refuse." Then let's not go to Yunnan, and reward it in another way. ”

It's true that tutoring Xiaoxue is true.

It's also true that I don't want to go with them.

Because she has gained too much now, she will return more in the future, and she doesn't want to be too involved with them.

At the dinner table, Zeguan did not express any more opinions, and privately pestered Lin Zisheng to say that he was going to travel, but Lin Zisheng couldn't resist her, and in the end, they went to Yunnan as planned, and the three of them went to Yunnan. When Lin Zisheng went out, he said that he would bring a lot of gifts back to her.

After they left, there was no one else in the house, and it was quiet suddenly, and Niansheng returned to the room as usual and locked the door, only in this way could she feel safe.

Song Zexi's grandmother knew that Niansheng was at home alone, so she asked her to eat two meals at noon and evening, and Niansheng herself was very good at cooking, but she thought that she couldn't touch the old man's mind, so she agreed.

Every time Niansheng went over to eat, he was polite.

She is always easy to be restrained in front of outsiders.

Once, the old gentleman suddenly asked her if she could play Go, and Niansheng nodded. So, soon after dinner, the old gentleman and Nian Sheng would give birth to a game of Go, and the old lady and Zexi would sit on both sides and watch the game.

Niansheng's skills are extremely high in the same age group, but he is not the opponent of the old gentleman after all.

Later, once, the old gentleman asked her to join forces with Zexi, Niansheng was biased towards the defensive type, and Zexi was an offensive chess player, one attack and one defense, and that game of chess was played for more than an hour.

Since that team-up victory, Niansheng and Zexi have gotten along much easier, and on the way home, occasionally Zexi will rub her hair and make jokes.

Zexi asked, "Do you know how Xiangqian and Qianqian met?" ”

Nian Sheng didn't react for a while, and shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”

Agui and Qianqian got back together, and Niansheng had a lot less time to meet him. Because she gave people the feeling of being too soft, she almost forgot that her real name was Yang Qianqian.

He said: "It was also smashed by basketball. That time, Xiangqian smashed Qianqian unconscious, sent her to the infirmary, took care of her all day, and then they were together not long after. ”

She said, "Haha, that's really thanks to basketball. ”

On the last night before Lin Zisheng and the others came back, Zexi sent her downstairs, where the pestle did not move, nor did he speak, Nian was puzzled, in the past, he would say goodnight very gentlemanly.

Nian Sheng said gently: "I'm going up." ”

The young man looked at the sky, sighed, and said lightly, "Good night." ”

Nian Sheng turned around and returned to the empty, dark and silent house. Standing at the window, I opened the corner of the curtain, and vaguely saw a figure downstairs, stretched by the moonlight.

Nian Sheng thought that if she didn't open her mouth at that time and stood there, maybe the young man would have said something to her.

However, during those days, she also had mixed emotions and did not have a peaceful state of mind to be a good listener.

During the day, Niansheng went to tutor Xiaoxue as usual, but Xiaoxue had fallen too much before, and it was not particularly easy to make up for it. Fortunately, Xiaoxue is a smart child, and some problems can be solved at one point.

In the evening, Lin Zisheng and the others came back from Yunnan, and at the dinner table they chatted about what they had seen and heard in the local area.

Zeguan looked excited: "Sister, do you know? It turned out that Erhai Lake is not a sea, it is so beautiful, we stayed in an inn by Erhai Lake, and we were fortunate to see Erhai Yue. ”

Nian Sheng said casually: "Really? ”

Zeguan: "I heard that the innkeeper said that there is a legend there that there is a fairy in the heavenly palace, and she envies the life in the world, so she went down to a fishing village on the shore of Erhai Lake and married a young fisherman. When she saw that the fishermen were having difficulty fishing, she sank her mirror to the bottom of the sea to get a clear picture of the fish, so that the fishermen could catch more fish. Later, the fairy was forcibly taken back to the sky by her father, and before leaving, she sank her treasure mirror to the bottom of the sea forever, and the treasure mirror became a golden moon, which is the Erhai moon. ”

Lin Zisheng: "Yes, Niansheng, you must go out with us next time, so that you can broaden your horizons and increase your knowledge, which you can't learn from books." ”

Nian Sheng took a bite of rice from the bowl and nodded: "Okay." ”

Dali, the initial impression of Niansheng is Jin Yong's "Tianlong Babu".

She also wanted to see the rivers and lakes there.

Swallowing the wind and kissing the rain / burying the sunset / never hesitated

Deceive the mountains and catch the sea / Trample the snow trail / and not despair

Lin Zisheng brought back several gifts for Nian Sheng, including mille-feuille cakes and candied fruits, as well as handmade Lijiang copper locks and bracelets.

"The style of this silver bracelet is still chosen by Yi Shu for you." When Lin Zisheng gave the gift to Nian Sheng, he deliberately said the bracelet.

Nian Sheng didn't care, and whispered a thank you.

The bracelet was placed in a drawer along with the gifts that Lin Zisheng usually bought for her.

Niansheng's favorite Lijiang copper lock, which is well-made and has lifelike animal patterns, she thought about taking it to Xiaoxue when she was tutoring.

Although Xiaoxue is smart, she is very lazy. Niansheng passed eight o'clock, and she was still lazy in bed and refused to get up.

Niansheng waited for her while reading her book, and most of them had to wait until after nine o'clock before she finished the breakfast Niansheng bought for her.

Nian Sheng reprimanded: "It is said that the plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning." You're wasting a day, and you're going to waste a whole year! ”

Xiaoxue wailed: "You let me die!" ”

Niansheng changed his face and said, "Hurry up and take out the textbooks, I'm going back to eat later." ”

Xiaoxue pursed her lips, looked at Nian Sheng with bright eyes, and obediently took out the textbook.

Suddenly, Xiaoxue seemed to think of something, and the thief smiled: "Otherwise, you will stay and eat in the future!" I'll just ask that aunt to make an extra one and send it over. This way we have more time to study. ”

Nian Sheng hesitated and replied lightly: "I want to sleep a little longer." ”

Xiaoxue's plan was recognized, and she coquettishly said to Niansheng: "I am now growing my body, and I must have enough sleep time." Well. ”

After speaking, he nodded to himself.

Nian Sheng smiled: "Then you don't stay up late, rest early at night." Experts say that going to bed early at night makes the body taller. ”

Xiaoxue had a question mark: "Which expert said that?" I haven't heard of it. The players who played basketball were all one meter, nine or two meters, did they fall asleep after eating. ”

I don't know which sentence hit the laughing point, and the two of them bent over and laughed until their stomachs hurt.

When I have time, I sit on the sofa and learn Cantonese in front of Cantonese dramas, and I can laugh for a long time when the two of you are lame.

- "If you don't have a dream, what is the difference between the same salted fish?" ”

- "I don't know what you say. ”

In a friendship, it is also a rare thing to have the same laughs.

When Niansheng left, he gave the copper lock to Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue was happy, and her mouth was grinning: "I promise, I will get up early in the future." ”

Xiaoxue, who said she was going to get up early, didn't get up early.

The first snow, but it came unexpectedly, saying that it came earlier than in previous years.

When he came out of the house that day, at the corner of the stairs, Nian Sheng looked up and found that there were crystal clear elves flying in the sky outside the window, dyeing the whole world white.

I couldn't wait to run out, and the low-rise buildings and green vegetation were covered with a thin layer of snow.

With snowflakes flying wildly on his head, Nian Sheng stretched out his hands and looked at the cold six-pointed star-shaped crystals that fell on his fingertips, remembering what the geography teacher said, every snowflake is unique.

Because of the unpredictable changes above the clouds, temperature, humidity and pressure, each snowflake travels through a myriad of microclimates as it falls, each experiencing a unique journey.

I thought of the scene of snow when I was a child, whether she or her father found out first, they couldn't help but shout to each other to come out, and the other person would immediately stop what they were doing, and then the two of them would lie on their stomachs in the living room window and watch the snow.

It was also one of the most intimate moments between her and her father.

The surprise of this moment, no one around to share, Niansheng was immersed in it, and he felt the happiness he had not seen for a long time in his heart, and there was an inexplicable emotion swollen in his heart.

No one knows that in the past six months, she has been in a state of compromise with nothingness, busy, numb, learning to speak and eat out of inertia, no direction, no sustenance.

Death is not attractive at all, but it often seeks the meaning of life.

At this moment, there are suddenly a lot of yearnings, yearning for love, yearning for freedom, yearning for vitality.

It's hard to say that it takes suffering to truly experience joy, but she knows better than anyone what is most precious.
