Chapter 2 Xiao Tao in order not to lose at the starting line
"Little Peach, it's almost time to go to bed today, it's already ten o'clock! School will officially start tomorrow. ”
Before I was ready to turn off the lights, I habitually checked whether there were any safety gaps in the room, and although I confirmed that it was correct, the light in Xiao Tao's room came through the gap in the bedroom door.
"If you don't go to bed early, you'll not grow tall."
I reminded Peach.
Xiao Tao always cares about her height, and when she walks on the street or in the supermarket with me, everyone always casts a touching look at us, probably thinking of her as a primary school student who can't do without her brother all day. Although I usually don't mention Xiao Tao's height as much as possible, it still has a considerable effect on some extreme things.
"If you don't pay attention to the combination of work and rest during the growth period, you will be the size of a little Lori for the rest of your life."
If the first two soft words don't work, then this sentence is the most lethal and has a great effect, generally when I finish this sentence, Xiao Tao will stop what she is doing no matter how busy she is, no matter how far away I am from her, she will run to me with a small step of "180 miles" and I reason. I don't know where the lethality of this sentence is, and I don't really understand my sister's thoughts, is height so important? Isn't it good to be cute with a small contrast?
"Stupid brother, do you know the saying 'if you don't die, you won't die'?"
Momo's voice came from the bedroom.
And it worked.
"Not only do I know, but I also know its next sentence, 'No man will be a dead boy.'" How? Brother, I'm still very knowledgeable, right? ”
There have been a lot of such paragraphs in the news recently, and I blurted out the next sentence for a while.
Woe comes from the mouth.
After saying that, I subconsciously sensed the danger, and instinctively put on the defensive mode of boxing fights - desperately protecting my head.
"Then please die, remember not to die in front of me, after all, if the only person who can be bullied dies in front of me, I will still feel a little sad."
Xiao Tao walked to the side door of the dormitory with slippers and said to me face to face through the door.
Some sadness also means some attention, although I am very touched by the importance of me, but I always feel a subtle, strange feeling.
"If I don't turn off the lights, I'll turn off the main switch."
I made an ultimatum.
"It's annoying, whatever you want. If you turn off the main switch, won't you be able to read a book? ”
Xiao Tao has an indifferent attitude.
My sister, who has lived under the same roof as me for 14 years, even knows that I like to read novels under the small lamp in front of my bed before going to bed. However, I used to read novels, but recently I realized that other people's novels no longer satisfy my taste, so I decided to write a novel just for myself, so I am now writing novels.
But if I don't write today, I won't let my sister stay up late at night, and I don't plan to publish it anyway, so it doesn't matter if I write a day or two late.
"I'm not going to read a novel today, so I'm going to turn off the switch."
I tried to use a nonchalant tone as much as I could.
"No, my phone hasn't been charged yet!"
Xiao Tao was obviously a little anxious when she saw that her tricks didn't work.
"Then turn off the lights and go to bed!"
"Yes, my brother."
Reluctantly, Peach turned off the lights, and her bedroom suddenly went dark.
Well, I should be asleep now, and I should do some of my thing.
I picked up my phone and opened the editing document and wrote: My sister is well-behaved and charming, although she is usually not very honest but still has an honest time, and this morning also prepared a hearty breakfast for me, although the heat is not very in place, but my brother is already very happy to have this heart......
I looked at the time on my phone, it was a quarter past eleven, and it was almost time for me to go to bed. No, one more thing to be sure before that, Xiao Tao is likely to adjust the brightness of the small table lamp at the head of the bed to a minimum, and then rely on the refraction distance of the light not enough to extend to the gap in the bedroom door to secretly read a book.
It's a bit like the feeling of the ancients chiseling the wall to borrow light.
It seems like it's going to be foolproof, but I have my own way of coping.
Peach's room is right next door to mine, very close. Although it is possible, there is no need to deliberately drill a small hole in the wall to monitor what Xiao Tao is usually doing when she is alone in the room. This behavior looks like a voyeur, and I can fully say that I care about Xiao Tao's health, in fact, it is, I don't know if you believe it or not.
If you send an email to Peach, you may be ignored or ask me if I haven't slept on the grounds that I've been woken up by the email prompt, and the worst thing is that if Peach's really fall asleep and I'm really woken up, then my sin is a little too big, so here you should choose the method that I may encounter risks, but Peach's can be safe.
As mentioned before, our rooms are very close to each other, and not only that, but even the writing desk is only connected by the desk. In other words, our window sills are also very close. I'm about 1.76 meters tall, about 1.65 meters from my sister's windowsill, which means that I can see my sister's whole room as long as I stand on the desk and lean over the wall with one hand. This plan is very beneficial to me, if Xiao Tao wants to follow this trick, even if she uses her natural soft body on the desk, at most she can reach the front half of the other foot in front of my window, and the other hand can't even reach my window, and if you want to achieve a slightly worse effect, you must at least take a mirror and use the mirror reflection, but this is too dangerous, by the way, if I want to, I can break through the window.
Why should I be complacent about this? Speaking of which, my room has never been locked, and Xiao Tao has been coming and going freely in my room, so I can only use some height advantages to seek psychological comfort. Thinking of this, I quietly poked my head to take a look, and sure enough, Xiao Tao was still at the bedside to preview tomorrow's homework, and she also took great care to block the books that she couldn't use for the time being on the gap in the bedroom door, as if the light would leak out.
After understanding the situation, I carefully returned to my room and made the decision without hesitation, okay, turn off the switch.
When I walked out of the room and turned off the switch, I vaguely heard my sister coming out of the room, "Oops! The lovely exclamation.
"Good morning Peach, did you sleep well last night?"
I looked at Xiao Tao's thick dark circles and deliberately pretended not to know.
"Well, thank you, brother, I'm fine."
Xiao Tao didn't seem to know that I turned off the electric switch last night, and thought it was just a simple trip.
"By the way, brother, is the electricity all right?"
"Huh? How do you know that the electricity tripped last night, are you still ...... at that time"
"No, no, no, I didn't really, I was on ...... in the middle of the night"
"On what?"
"I only found out when I went to the toilet!"
"Oh yes, that's not easy."
In fact, yesterday, I turned off the electric switch for half an hour, and I turned on the electric switch after confirming that Xiao Tao had fallen asleep, and there was no movement in Xiao Tao's room.
"Cheer up Little Peach, what do you want to eat this morning?"
"Just eat a little bit, I want to eat steak."
"How can you eat steak early in the morning?"
"But I'm going to eat it! Do you want to do it for me? ”
"Done."
Now that I've said that, how could I refuse her?
I quickly took a slice of steak out of the fridge and thawed it in the microwave, then turned on the heat to preheat the oil so that I could fry two eggs while the steak was thawing. I don't have time to make pasta anymore, and eating steak in the morning is too high in calories, right? I feel like I don't have to eat lunch. There were still two minutes to thaw, and then I found that the spare water dispenser in the living room was empty, but fortunately, there was still some hot water in the spare kettle, and I took advantage of this time to take out the kettle and brew a glass of milk for Xiao Tao, and some oats were added to the milk. It took less than a minute to defrost, and as a good chef not only had to be a good cook, but also a good keeper of time, I took advantage of this minute to prepare my own breakfast - two slices of whole wheat bread and a cup of oats.
The thawing is complete, and the time is just right.
"Little Peach, don't lie on the table and doze off, go wash up and start eating soon!"
"Okay."
Xiao Tao replied a little reluctantly.
"By the way, is it okay to have a steak with black pepper flavor?"
I didn't ask her how cooked the steak should be, because I would only make it fully cooked for her, foreigners love to eat medium rare or medium rare, that is the taste preference of foreigners, Xiao Tao must not be used to eating this, not to mention that it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, and I will not make it for her based on this, and my sister's stomach is not very good.
"Whatever......"
"Got it!"
As soon as I received the reply, I closed the kitchen door and turned on the hood so as not to choke my sister on the smell when frying the steak.
"No, wait a minute!"
Xiao Tao seemed to remember something and suddenly shouted, but unfortunately the sound was completely muffled by the boiling oil and the exhaust fan, I couldn't hear it, but Xiao Tao can't eat spicy food, I remember this more clearly than herself.
After the meal, we went out of the house together as usual and parted ways, and I believe that this situation will disappear in a year. Because Xiao Tao is very competitive, once she sets a goal, she will do her best to achieve it and never give up easily.
"I'll see you later."
"Well, I'll see you in the evening."
It's really a little unaccustomed to going to school alone after a long absence.,Usually I walk with Xiao Tao and the two of them.,Suddenly without each other's company, I feel a lot of loneliness.,I don't know if Xiao Tao also feels this way.。 Due to the age difference, there will be a one-year separation period no matter what school period, such as my primary one and my sister's kindergarten class; I am in the first year of junior high school, and my sister is a sixth child; Until now, I am a freshman in high school and my sister is in her third year of junior high school.
My sister's growth has been seen along the way, and I have also found some characteristics, which are not obvious in kindergarten, until I was about to graduate from the sixth grade of primary school, and I found out that my sister seemed to be hiding something in those days.
My sister, who usually likes to quarrel with me for fun, suddenly became very well-behaved and obedient, and she did whatever I asked her to do without a word of complaint. At the time, I thought it was very strange that I thought there was something wrong with my sister, even if I asked my mother how my sister was doing, my mother just smiled and said, "Oh, Xiaoguang hasn't noticed it yet?" Some of them are too sluggish. "Something.
Later, when I was about to choose middle school, my sister came to me and grabbed the corner of my clothes and whispered if I could repeat a grade to accompany her, and when I noticed my sister's thoughts, it turned out that not only my sister would also feel unaccustomed to not being able to see each other often, and it could even be said that she was afraid. For the younger sister. Target. I also thought about it, and finally my father said, "Don't be kidding." "And after closing the coffin, I found that my sister was not as lively as she used to be, and began to shut myself in the room by myself, and I have not been in my sister's room since.
The laughter and laughter that were once petty are gradually replaced by deliberate indifference and vague words, but eventually silence.
Now my parents will send messages back from time to time, according to their messages, they have lived a chic life abroad, and even asked us if we have any plans to study abroad.
But of course I refused, how could I let go of the plot of being able to live in the same house with my sister and the two of them, which can only appear in novels? This is the best opportunity to make up for not being able to agree to Xiao Tao's hard work back then.
