Chapter 16: New Life

A hi song is like a world away. Because of the biological clock, I wake up at 6:30 in the morning, and I wake up early. "It's a rare weekend, let me get some sleep. "My parents didn't wake me up, but my 28-year-old and 17-year-old body fused together and I couldn't sleep anymore. The mood is a little irritable, probably because it is a cloudy day today.

"Jiahe, why did you make your own breakfast today?"

At the age of twenty-eight, I often make my own breakfast. Before I was twenty-five years old, my parents helped me with it, but after I failed in my job and could not integrate into society, my parents stopped making breakfast for me and asked me to support myself. It's not difficult to make breakfast, it's hard to prepare. There were overnight dishes in the fridge, however I didn't like to eat them. I like fresh food, and there are very few foods in the house that I don't miss a day. In desperation, I had to start with these overnight foods. The breakfast I make myself mostly is poached eggs and then egg fried rice. Forgive me for making homemade egg fried rice that until now is a pinch of salt and salty enough.

"Egg fried rice, have your share. Come and have a taste. I turned my back to my parents and smiled maliciously.

As I thought, the two of them said, "I've got salt." ”

The day I went back to the past for the second time, I saw my cousin Yi Menghua. I don't know if Yi Menghua remembers that she and I met in a time loop. She should have forgotten like Chen Yaofei, and the memory left behind is the memory of the time when she didn't see me when I first went back to the past.

"I suddenly wanted to see her. ”

"Who?" My dad gossiped more about my girlfriend than my mom.

"What a sweetheart. I'm talking about Menghua. ”

"Then you go to her house to play, it's not far away. ”

Yi Menghua lived in a commercial house rented by her parents when I was in high school. Her house is much more magnificent than mine, with three floors.

"Don't go. "I really miss Yi Menghua and want to see her, but she has a terrible "bear", a "carnivore" that loves to rub people. "I have homework to write. I added to my dad.

"Thank you" to the six teachers for their dedication, and our class has a lot of homework on the weekend. I thought it would be okay to do these papers with my 28-year-old IQ, but my memory dragged me back, and as a result, it took me a whole morning to complete all the assignments, leaving not a single blank question.

Worried about how much money my mobile phone traffic was spent, I lay down in bed and looked up at the ceiling. White ceiling, a chandelier, some stains - "Ah, it's boring......"

When I got out of bed, I went to the desk and opened the diary I had written last night, and sure enough, there were still the three big words "help me" on it.

"God, are you going to put me in a time loop again? Can't you just give me a hint about who's asking me for help?"

Closing the journal, I went to the window and looked into the distance. Because of the obstruction of the buildings, the scenery I saw was almost constant. Fortunately, I can look up at the sky, but today's sky is overcast with clouds obscuring the sun, which makes people feel depressed.

"Hey, Xiao Hui, I'm Yi Jiahe. What are you doing now? What, playing outside with your classmates? Why don't you take me with you? Next time? Okay, then it's decided, you want to take me with you next time. ”

To end the call, I look at the phone contact list. Back in the past, the phone numbers of my registered classmates were only Xiao Hui and Chen Yaofei.

"Hey, Chen Yaofei? Well, I'm Yi Jiahe. What are you doing now?Sleeping?It's almost lunchtime?What, thank you for waking you up?"Kid, how did you survive this cruel world?" A lot of homework, just like me. But we're in different classes of arts and sciences, and I can't help you. What, it took me two hours to stay up late yesterday and do it? What are you kidding, this amount of homework can also be said to be 'a lot'?" "It's good that I'm also a science student." "Oh, you're going to get up and brush your teeth. I'm busy this afternoon. Of course, if you have to go outside with me...... Hah, thank you for waking you up, otherwise you're going to miss the party with the girls in your class?" and I hung up after dropping a sentence of "Oh, then I won't bother you, goodbye". Actually, I don't envy at all, not at all.

I made myself a super simple lunch, and I fell into bed to fend for myself. Perhaps because of the early rest day, I fell into dizziness for a while as I lay on the bed, and fell asleep after a while. It was four o'clock in the afternoon when I woke up. Yawned, put on a light coat, and went for a walk outside. Since I didn't have to walk far, I got home in half an hour and started preparing dinner. Needless to say, when my parents came home and saw what I was cooking, they both said in unison, "It's going to rain tomorrow." ”

"It's not going to rain tomorrow. "That's what the weather forecast on my phone says.

It's Tuesday of the new week. Ever since sacrificing my life in the time loop to help Chen Yaofei avoid making a fateful mistake, I have always had the illusion that I can stop time. It's an illusion, and that's because I can't stop time. In geography class yesterday, Chen Meifen won me three times, and I answered incorrectly twice. It's not that I said that I had to go through the same things again and again before that I was able to quickly answer the answers to the questions on the test papers that I had memorized by heart. But now, time is passing normally, and what I experience is something new. There are still missing memories from the past, but not to mention the previous memories, even the answers I knew by heart last time are now slowly beginning to be forgotten. Poor memory, helpless. My brain is like a rusty gear, often stuck and unable to turn. Sometimes, though, it spins violently and startles me. For example, I remember that Zhang Tao once deliberately kicked me. Therefore, when Chen Meifen was about to give up on me, I asked her for the opportunity to help in the field and chose Zhang Tao to answer. The result was unsatisfactory: Zhang Tao answered the question, and I was punished for standing for 20 minutes. Twenty minutes later, Chen Meifen asked Yu Zhifu to answer the question, and Yu Zhifu asked for on-site assistance as I did. I knew the answer and the principle, but Chen Meifen asked me to sit down and Yu Zhifu to stand. When Chen Meifen turned around, my feeling came up, and I stretched out my right hand and said softly to Chen Meifen, "Time, stop", but nothing happened. Chen Meifen suddenly turned around, but fortunately I withdrew my hand in time. At the end of class, He Guangzheng couldn't hide it, laughed out loud, and asked me what the hell I was doing in geography class. I replied that I tried to stop time, and then he laughed even more and leaned over and almost fell to the ground.

After breaking out of the time loop, I have been thinking about a question from morning to night: what attitude should I have towards life? In the past, I had a misanthropic complex, and I wanted to do something great all day long, and then give my life for it. I was a person who longed for freedom, and living in a home where my parents scolded me every day was like being imprisoned. On the other hand, I didn't want to leave my parents because the outside world was so expensive: it cost money to get clothes, food to eat, housing to take a bus, rent a bicycle and even go to the toilet. There was money everywhere, and it made me collapse. In the time loop, Chen Yaofei chose to end his life in order to help me get rid of the fate of reincarnation. Although Chen Yaofei did not change our fate, his actions made me know what it means to live and die together - such as the allusion of the three knots in Taoyuan, even if we did not worship the three incense of heaven and earth, he is already my beloved family in my heart. In terms of age, Chen Yaofei seems to be a little too young to be my younger brother, but it is completely unreasonable for him to be my godson, unless he really wants to be my godson. Chen Yaofei made me understand that there is still a person in this world who is willing to give his life for me, that is, there is still hope in my world. Even if I have forgotten my love, if someone loves me, I will definitely regain my love for someone.

"Chen Yaofei, do you love me?" I said, remembering the idiotic question that Chen Yaofei asked me last Saturday, and I was ashamed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Love. ”

"Huh, really?"

Chen Yaofei smiled innocently and said, "Of course it's true." My affection for you is like the majestic mountains and the sparkling blue sea......"

"Stop, stop, are you figurative?"

Chen Yaofei shouted "good ball" to the bottom, and then said to me: "It should be a metaphor." ”

I bent down and planned to crouch down as soon as the boys below turned to us. The boys who decided on the position of Yixiang did not divert their attention, and I said to Chen Yaofei: "What should be." I ask you, what do you treat me as you?"

"Classmates. Chen Yaofei looked down and couldn't take his eyes off it.

"That's it?"

"Or else?"

"It turns out that the love you are talking about is the love of classmates. "It's strange to have classmates in love.

"No," Chen Yaofei said as he turned to me and smiled, "I'm talking about brotherly love." ”

"In other words, you treat me as your brother?" Could it be that Zhou Hui said it?

"Of course. In my heart, you are a classmate like my brother. Good shot!"

The students of the first position noticed the shouting and looked at us, and I immediately hooked Chen Yaofei by the neck and pulled him down.

"Why are we squatting on the ground?"

"I don't know. By the way, you said you love me?"

"I forgot. Chen Yaofei grinned with his white teeth bared.

I lost to him.

I don't want to think about how to face life anymore. Twenty-eight-year-old me, seventeen-year-old me, it's all me. The depressed me, the hypocritical and pompous me, are all me. I am a disgusting person and a depressed person. There are many things that I still can't figure out, and there are many things that I still can't decide. But, that's who I am. What kind of person is Chen Yaofei? Chen Yaofei is innocent, but in fact he is a person who always hides his sorrow in his heart, like me before me. Coming out of the time loop, Chen Yaofei is still an innocent person. Whether or not he hid a new sadness in his heart, I don't know. What I can be sure of is that Chen Yaofei is now his true self. Whether stupid or disgusting, Chen Yaofei is Chen Yaofei, the Chen Yaofei I cherish. And I, too, intend to be myself. As long as there is one person in the world who supports me, I will live my true colors and be myself.

"Chen Yaofei, do you think I look like an uncle?" said goodbye on the platform, and I asked Chen Yaofei.

"Well," Chen Yaofei thought seriously, "super like." ”

"Beat you," I pretended to kick him, but he dodged it, "like like, and add a 'super'." Chen Yaofei waved at me and jumped to his class.

Lunch break ends. The first two classes on Tuesday afternoon are math. Tang Yiren walked into the classroom wearing a dark blue shirt and came to the podium to begin the explanation of the test papers. Tang Yiren's class was like a lullaby for me, and an ode to joy for other students.

At the end of the first class, I walked to the podium and said to Tang Yiren in an old-fashioned tone: "Old Tang, aren't you tired of lecturing alone?"

"What do you mean?"

"Meaning, I think you're going to have to change your teaching style. ”

"What do you suggest?"

"I ......" I wanted to say something bold like "I'm here to teach with you", but I didn't know anything about math and couldn't do anything about it. I had no choice but to answer Tang Yiren: "I can't think of it." ”

"Thank you," Tang Yiren said to me as if he had seen through my thoughts, "Maybe my lecture style is really boring, but it takes a little time to change." ”

I nodded, "Agreed." Change is not achieved overnight, quantitative change produces qualitative change. ”

Tang Yiren smiled knowingly, and said to me like a big child lying on the podium: "Yi Jia and classmates, are you interested in lecturing with me?" "Big brother, are you a roundworm in my stomach, how do you know that I want to teach with you?"

"No, I'm not qualified. What's more, the college entrance examination is just a few months away, and everyone needs professional mathematical knowledge to avoid making mistakes. Therefore, you are the most important person, Don. "People are self-aware, and I know what I can do and I am not qualified to do it.

Once upon a time, I called myself "Uncle", and my classmates gladly accepted my slip of the tongue: "Good morning, Uncle." "Uncle, go up and read it." "Uncle, let's go to lunch together." "Uncle, what do you choose for this question?" even Xie Changge said when he saw me: "Go away, uncle." ”

"Little Red Guy. "I wouldn't have cared about you unless I had made up my mind at the end of what you said to me at that time. "Yo Yo Yo, little red guy, curse you, it's bad luck to crackle. ”

August 26, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, Qixi Festival. On this day, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet at the bridge, romantic. However, there is nothing romantic about high schools, especially key high schools.

"Ugh......" I sighed.

"Uncle, what are you sighing for?" He Guangzheng turned to me and asked.

"Today's Qixi Festival, uncle, I'm sad. ”

"The Qixi Festival is none of your business, what are you sad about?"

I slammed the desk to startle the people around me, and then I replied loudly, "I can't be sad without a girlfriend!"

He Guangzheng was silent for a second, and then laughed out loud like the people around him.

"What are you laughing at, what are you laughing at?" I asked solemnly.

"You, you said girlfriend?aha, we're not adults yet, what kind of girlfriend are we looking for?" He Guangzheng smiled while holding his stomach.

I leaned forward and grabbed He Guangzheng by the collar. He Guangzheng was taken aback by my demeanor and immediately withdrew his smile.

"Child, you have to find a daughter-in-law as soon as possible, otherwise you will be urged to marry by your parents, and you will have to be crowned with the title of a single dog. Uncle, I am from here, and there is nothing wrong with listening to my uncle. He Guangzheng nodded again and again.

I let go of He Guangzheng and slumped in my seat, until Chen Meifen entered the door and glared at me, and I cheered up as if I had been beaten with chicken blood.

In Chinese class, Hong Hong mentioned the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl when explaining classical Chinese. It took more than ten minutes to tell the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl from beginning to end, and also talked about the customs of the Qixi Festival, and sang a song of Li Qingzhao's "Xingxiangzi". After listening to it again, except for the well-known legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, I almost forgot everything else. If it weren't for the characters "Xingqiao Magpie Driving" and "Morning Glory Weaver Girl" in "Xingxiangzi", I am afraid I would still be in a daze that I don't know what Hong Hong is chanting.

At noon, I plucked up the courage to invite Chen Shu to lunch.

"Okay," I happily watched Chen Shu look behind me, and listened sadly to her asking Zhou Hui, "Zhou Hui, Yi Jiahe invited me to lunch." Why don't you come along?"

"I have something to do, so I won't go. "Nice, Zhou Hui, good girl.

"Let's go together," Chen Shu didn't give up, and said to Zhou Hui, "Yi Jiahe said that he would have a treat." ”

"Okay, I'll go with you. ”

Looking at the two walking side by side in front of me, I was so melancholy: "Xingqiao magpie driving, melancholy and melancholy." Morning glory and weaver girl, melancholy and melancholy. Melancholy......"

"Hey, Yi Jiahe, if you don't hurry up, we're going to leave you behind. Zhou Hui waved at me.

The saddest thing in life is that there is someone you like in front of you, and she does not sit side by side with you or look at you. What's even more terrifying is that the wattage of the light bulb you brought is super high, radiating a thousand rays of light, brightening the short-sighted eyes of a blind single dog. Zhou Hui, Zhou Hui, if you let me, give me a chance to sit opposite Chen Shu, will you die? And Chen Shu, I told you, "Sit next to me," but you said to me, "I want to sit opposite you." Okay, now we are "sitting opposite each other" on another level: my dinner plate is diagonally opposite yours, and because Zhou Hui accidentally got the chicken bones out, there seems to be an abyss between us.

So, I spent lunch with the laughter of Chen Shu and Zhou Hui. The two of them seemed to have a good heart, and they didn't give me a chance to take advantage of this third party.

I didn't give up, and I spent the whole afternoon thinking about how to tell Chen Shu my heart so that she could accept me. Whenever victory is at hand, there are always bear children who come to make trouble. Among them, Lou Guohua discovered my intentions and said to me: "Uncle, the old cow wants to eat the grass by the nest?"

Tanabata heart confession plan was a complete failure.

Stretching my arms and looking up at the sky, my mind was empty. A head poked over and smirked at me, "Yi Jiahe, are you here to play football?"

"I don't want to. ”

"Why?"

"Frustrated. ”

"What's the loss?" Chen Yaofei lay down next to me and looked up at the sky with me.

Sighing deeply, I said to Chen Yaofei: "At the age of twenty-eight, I have never found anyone who truly loves me. There are a lot of girls in my life that I confess to......"

"Hello Huaxin. ”

"Don't interrupt. I got up and glared at Chen Yaofei, who looked up at the sky with a nonchalant grin. I lay down and continued: "Uncle, I have never met a woman who said to me 'I love you' in my life, and I have never met a man who said to me 'I love you' except for you and my father. You say, I'm not a lone star, how can I not have a girl who takes a fancy to my merits?"

"What are your advantages?" Chen Yaofei got up and put his head in front of me.

I pushed Chen Yaofei's head away and said, "Yushu is in the wind, handsome and chic, and looks dign......ified."

"If you have a girl chasing you with a face like this, then I probably have a group of wives and concubines with a face like mine. ”

I sat up and stared at Chen Yaofei with wide eyes. He looked at me, smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You kid," I laughed evilly, "you look innocent, but you're in a bad stomach." ”

"I don't have any bad water, it's Yi Jia and you want to be crooked. ”

"Little cub, what are you talking about?" playful hair, I sat on Chen Yaofei and tickled him.

"yes, I'm sorry, ahaha. I was wrong, I'm sorry...... Aha, ahahahaha......"

Stop, I lay down next to Chen Yaofei, who couldn't stop panting, and looked up at the sky. As the sun sets, fiery clouds line the sky, much like the one I ate when I was twenty-seven years old and accidentally stuck to the sauce.

"Now, Chen Yaofei. What if the two of us accidentally get into one, into a terrible time loop?"

"Hmm...... What one person can't do, two people can do. If two people can't do it, we'll find someone to help. There is a lot of strength in people, and a bundle of chopsticks is constantly broken. ”

"Yaofei, promise me one thing. I stared at Chen Yaofei.

"Well, what's the matter?" Chen Yaofei stared at me.

The two lying on the ground are not related by blood, but because of something beyond common sense, their fates are intertwined.

"If the two of us are faced with the choice of having to give up one of them, you ...... You must not abandon me. ”

Chen Yaofei nodded and said to me with a smile: "I will ...... then."

"You can't give up on yourself when the time comes. ”

Chen Yaofei put away his smile and was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"To live together, to die...... It must be raw. I looked to the sky and said, "Neither of us, neither of us can die." ”

"Hmm. ”

"It's an agreement between us. I said to Chen Yaofei.

"It's an agreement between us. Chen Yaofei said to me.

Everyone is lonely, and because of this, a sincere friendship is precious.

"Don't worry, don't be afraid, don't be sad, eternal life will always be with you. I muttered to myself.

Saving Chen Yaofei is just the beginning. Yes, I didn't know at that time that the choice of life and death that I had envisioned would come so quickly. Take a hundred plating and read the latest chapter of "Don't Forget the Blessing and Misfortune of the Past Book House" for free for the first time.
