Time flies, and it's Christmas Eve in the blink of an eye. Since most of the teachers have to go out to listen to the class collectively, the school decided to have a day off on the 24th, which is three days together with the weekend.

Before the holiday, Nishino made an appointment with several people to spend Christmas Eve together. Because the school does not require self-study in the evening, it was just getting dark, and Xiye, Tulong, and Yan Ling came to the front of the rockery behind the school teaching building. Most of the students went home, but only a few students like Nishino stayed at school because they were too far from home.

Not long after the three of them sat down, He Yan and Xu Xiaoqiao came over, as well as their roommate Liu Yanli, and a short and fat girl also came over.

"There are quite a few people here tonight." Xu Xiaoqiao greeted Xiye and them from afar.

"Yes, there are people who have the world, and there are more people to make the world lively." Nishino laughed.

"What's going on tonight?" He Yan casually found a place to sit down.

"Let's play here for a while and have a bite to eat. Later, Huang Liangmeng will also come, and he said that he would invite us to the KTV at the school gate. Tulong replied.

Melon seeds, fruits, and cakes are prepared in advance, and since most of everyone's family conditions are not well-off, they don't buy much. Good students get together on holidays, mainly to chat, relax, and exchange learning experiences, as for what to eat and how much to eat, it doesn't matter.

By the time several people had set up the food on the stone table, Huang Liangmeng and another girl were late. He put the bag in his hand on a stone table, and while taking all kinds of snacks from the bag to the outside, he said to everyone: "Let me get to know you first, this is Amy from the first class of Wen, and she is also my classmate in junior high school, please take care of me in the future." ”

"Huang Liang Meng, you are really a big money, bring so many delicious food. I look, there are fish skin peanuts, dates, raisins...... Hey, and the drumsticks? I love chicken thighs, thank you. It must cost a lot, right? Tulong babbled, tore open a piece of wrapping paper containing chicken legs, scooped up the chicken legs and stuffed them into his mouth.

"Aren't you a self-proclaimed vegetarian?" Nishino looked at Tulong's greedy appearance while looking Amy up and down.

Sure enough, it is a beautiful embryo, about one meter six or five tall, dressed in black casual clothes, a typical melon seed face, a pair of big watery eyes under slender eyebrows, thin lips, and a little pointed chin.

At this time, Amy was looking at everyone with a smile, and the corners of her mouth showed two shallow dimples, which were very charming.

"That dimple can hold a small glass of wine, no wonder Huang Liangmeng likes her so much." Nishino pondered.

Seeing that Nishino was silent, looking at herself honestly, Amy was a little uncomfortable, and she took the initiative to say hello to Nishino: "You are Nishino, I heard Huang Liangmeng talk about you, thank you for relieving him last time." ”

"We didn't do anything, Huangliang Meng is in the same dormitory as us, and it is appropriate to help each other. Today, I was a little surprised, Huang Liangmeng actually brought you over. Please be seated—" Nishino made a gesture and very politely beckoned the girl to sit down.

"I still have something to do today, but Huang Liangmeng told me about the last time you helped out. I have come to thank you, and you deserve it. ”

"You're welcome, you're really too polite." Nishino is embarrassed, he just did a small thing, but he is always remembered.

"I-" Amy stopped talking.

"What are you talking about? Come and eat, there are so many good ones, if you don't eat, we can get there first! Seeing that Amy seemed to want to say something more, He Yan deliberately interrupted the conversation between them.

"Yo, yo, someone is upset. Nishino, don't talk to strange girls, you know? Or some people will be unhappy. Xu Xiaoqiao looked at He Yan as he spoke, and there was something in his words.

"yes, yes. Someone is upset, and the consequences are serious drops! Unexpectedly, Yan Ling, who has always been very wooden, took the opportunity to echo, shaking his head while deliberately prolonging the voice of the word "drop" in the back, ups and downs, and others were amused by him to laugh.

"He can talk to whoever he likes, what do you do to me, why are you all looking at me?" He Yan muttered quietly as he pinched a raisin with his thumb and forefinger and put it in his mouth.

"We didn't say it was you, aren't you doing it?" Xu Xiaoqiao and He Yan looked flustered and laughed even harder.

"Xu Xiaoqiao, you say it again...... Don't blame me for revealing your old secrets. Who said in the dormitory last night that there was a boy in our class, who was both humorous and courageous? also said that I ...... such a boy in my dreams" He Yan saw Xu Xiaoqiao making fun of himself vigorously, so he issued a warning that he was going to use a killer move.

"Stop, stop. I won't say it, okay? Seeing this, Xu Xiaoqiao hurriedly raised his hands and begged for mercy.

"I'll spare you this time for the time being, and I'll really let go of it if I talk nonsense in the future." He Yan grabbed a chicken leg and took a bite.

"Come on, come on, how about we sing "Yesterday once more" together?" Nishino didn't want to watch the two girls fight for themselves and hurt the harmony.

"Okay, who's going to start?" Xu Xiaoqiao finally has steps to go down.

"Tulong, you're coming—" He Yan nodded.

"No, no, no, it's better for Nishino to come." Tulong said.

"Okay. Clas*ates,please flow me.” Nishino wants to practice the English song, "When I was young, I'd listen to the radio......"

The other students all stood up, formed a semicircle, and sang in unison:

When I was young I'd listen to the radio. Waiting for my favorite songs....... It's yesterday once more. Shoobie do lang lang. Every shalala every wo wo .

Nishino and He Yan sang the hardest, and after singing, Amy couldn't help but praise: "I can't imagine that Nishino is handsome, and singing is even more handsome." ”

"That's natural, although Nishino is a little inferior to Huangliang Meng in altitude." He Yan was so unhappy.

"What are you nervous about, people are sincerely complimenting, and they won't rob Nishino. I'm afraid that the drunkard's intention is not to drink, but to care about the mountains and rivers! Xu Xiaoqiao lost no time in replying to He Yan.

"Who is the drunkard, who is the landscape? There are mountains and rivers here, but there are no drunkards—" Tulong resolved the embarrassing scene.

"You can do whatever you want, you don't have to be restrained, you can't be careful. Come, eat chicken legs—" Huang Liang Meng finally burst out.

Everyone giggled and laughed while eating snacks on the table. Time passed slowly in a cheerful atmosphere, and a round of bright moonlight slowly rose into the sky. The moonlight shines through the cracks in the surrounding bamboo forests, weaving all kinds of mottled shadows on the ground.

"The full moon is full tonight, and I don't know who the lovesickness will fall on." Looking at the round moon in the sky, before I knew it, Nishino's nostalgia was committed again. In a trance, I returned to the countryside that haunted me, and returned to the low cabin by the country stream.

I don't know how the family is now, and I don't know if my mother, who has always been in poor health, is still okay? I haven't been home for more than two months, and it's time to finish my farm work, right?

Nishino often heard his grandmother say that his father, who had gone to high school, had no chance to get a public office for some reason, so he had to accept his fate. My father, who is in his fifties, is diligent and thrifty, and whenever he has time, he tries his best to go out to earn money. After a day's hard work, with an income of thirty or forty yuan, my father barely managed to make ends meet for the family.

A few days ago, Nishino met his second uncle who went to the city to work as a small worker in the city, and he said that his father went to Guangdong to work after the National Day. In order to ensure that Nishino no has no worries about tutoring and going to college next year, his father, who has no skills, has to leave his hometown and go to work so far away, selling coolies and doing small jobs on construction sites. I haven't heard from him yet, and I don't know how he's doing there.

Now that the family is the only one in school, and all the hopes of the family are pinned on him, Nishino feels that he is under a lot of pressure. Whenever he thought of his father's thin body, his mother's obviously clumsy figure when she was just over fifty, and the expectant eyes of his grandmother in heaven, Nishino's heart would ache faintly.

"What are you thinking?" Nishino suddenly became silent, and He Yan, who was sitting next to him, felt that something was wrong.

"Homesick......" Nishino sighed.

"I also often miss home, my parents, and my younger siblings. The other day, I received a message from someone saying that my mother has been in poor health lately, she always has a cold, and I don't know how she is now. He Yan's expression was a little overshadowed. Nishino clearly saw a kind of crystal tears gently rolling in He Yan's eyes.

"Don't talk about these unhappy things, it's rare for everyone to relax today, just have a good time, and after tomorrow we will have classes again." Xu Xiaoqiao saw that the two of them were very depressed, and came over to comfort them.

"Shall we go outside and sing? It's been a long time since I've been singing. "Huangliang Meng's song addiction is here.

"Well, sing and go! Huang Liang Meng, I've never heard you sing. Nishino rubbed his chest, took a few deep breaths, stood up, and walked out of the school with the group.

Everyone walked out of the school gate, crossed the road, and walked more than 100 meters forward to an open-air song stall. There were two or three people in front of the TV who were ordering and singing, and there were more than a dozen people watching next to them, casually admiring the out-of-tune singing.

Nishino usually likes to sing, and although he doesn't sing very well, he can still hear some of the truth. Seeing that the people in front of him were obviously uneven in breath and their pronunciation was inaccurate, he shook his head lightly and found a stool to sit down.

When the boss saw the business, he warmly stepped forward to greet him: "Do you want to sing a few classmates?" Wait a minute, it will be your turn soon. He skilfully pulled out the playlist, poured everyone another cup of hot tea, and beckoned everyone to sit down.

Nishino was also polite, took the song and ordered two songs, and then the other students also finished their songs one by one.
