Chapter 7: Dark Fairy Tales
Zhen Yu was just about to push the door, when Han Jiaoyang's voice came from not far from his side, "Why did you come so early?" Can't wait to see my brother? ”
…… Stinky boy! You're thinking too much......
Even if I made up my mind to become a bamboo horse, I wouldn't be so impatient! Han Mingyue is only 13 years old this year......
Zhen Yu just turned his head and glanced in the direction of Han Jiaoyang, then pushed the door in without hesitation and closed the door casually.
Han Jiaoyang, who was locked out of the door, raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand to push the door but couldn't open it, so he had to shout through the door: "Hey~ Zhen Yu, why don't you answer me?" ”
Zhen Yu stood inside the door, holding the doorknob with his right hand, silently.
Han Jiaoyang twisted the doorknob a few times and shouted a few more times, but the people inside the door didn't react, so he muttered and turned around and left.
Han Mingyue had been sitting at the desk, staring at her since Zhen Yu entered the room, until the voice outside the door faded away, and she didn't make any response, obviously stunned.
Zhen Yu let go of the doorknob and turned around, and what he saw was a young man with empty eyes.
She walked over with light steps, walked around behind him, pulled out the first volume of "The Complete Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen" that she had read on the bookshelf yesterday, and sat down on a chair not far away to read it.
When Han Mingyue came back to her senses, she found that the room was so quiet that she could hear a needle dropping, and the girl had lost her figure at the door.
As soon as I turned my head, I found that she was sitting not far away and immersed in reading, and the whole person seemed to be a sculpture that could breathe.
Han Mingyue hurriedly gathered her thoughts, and lowered her head to continue reading her book.
Every time Zhen Yu finished reading a short story, he would glance at the small alarm clock and estimate the speed at which he could read a book.
It was almost 11 o'clock when she folded the book on her lap and stretched.
Han Mingyue looked up at the alarm clock, "You can read another one~"
“?” Zhen Yu blinked and looked at him puzzled.
"You read an article for about half an hour, what time do you want to get home? I'll set an alarm clock for you in the afternoon~"
"Good!" Zhen Yu agreed, but still stood up and put the book back on the shelf, and didn't continue to read.
Seeing this, Han Mingyue also clasped the book in her hand on the desk and said, "Girls like to read fairy tale books. ”
"Really? Do you like cruel and dark fairy tales? Zhen Yu raised his eyes to look at him, his dark eyes were as cold as ink, as if he could see people's souls.
"Cruel? Dark? Han Mingyue repeated these two words in a daze, is this used to describe fairy tales?
Zhen Yu suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, and his expression was a little evil for no reason.
Blinking and looking again, she regained her expressionless appearance and spit out a few words, "Just kidding, I'll go first." ”
It wasn't until the sound of the bedroom door closing that Han Mingyue woke up.
He thought for a moment and pulled out the fairy tale book that Zhen Yu had just read from the shelf.
After Zhen Yu went home, he continued to write his summer vacation homework in his brother's whispered complaints, and did not put down his pen until he heard the sound of Zhen's mother shouting for dinner.
"Xiaoyu~ After taking a nap, you go to your Uncle Han's house~ Let's invite them to dinner in the evening!" Mother Zhen said while eating.
"Okay." Zhen Yu happily agreed.
As soon as Zhen Yan called "Mom", he was interrupted by Zhen's mother, "You are not allowed to go anywhere today!" ”
Zhen Yan bowed his head and pulled rice, and Zhen's mother spoke again, "When you wake up from a nap, follow me to buy vegetables and cooked food!" And wine! I can't take it alone~"
glanced at Zhen Yu again, "You go to report the letter and come back, help your mother wash the vegetables and cut cooked food~ Fight!" ”
Zhen Yu still happily agreed: "Got it." ”
Seeing that the two children were very obedient, Zhen's mother finished the meal satisfied, didn't let the two help clean up, and sent the little brothers back to the bedroom.
Zhen Yan and Zhen Yu actually study and live in the same room, but Zhen Yan's single bed is placed against the south window, Zhen Yu's single kang is against the north wall, and there is a curtain in front of the kang and in front of the bed.
At this moment, Zhen Yu was lying behind the curtain and studying her system, and the ability point/knowledge point had become 0/70, and she found that the increase in this point was not only related to time, but also to the content of the book.
She can increase by 4 to 5 points per hour when she does summer homework, but she can increase by 10 points when she reads fairy tale books.
While thinking about it, my brother's voice suddenly came, "Xiaoyu~Xiaoyu~"
"Say!"
"......" sister suddenly became so paralyzed and silent, and Zhen Yan was a little maladapted.
"Help me plead for mercy, just get it for a day today~~~ I really want to have a water fight~"
"Still want to go down the river?"
For some reason, Zhen Yan heard a fierceness from the four words of his sister, and quickly denied it, "No, no, no!" Play with water guns! ”
"Okay."
After Zhen Yu woke up, he went to Uncle Han's house to inform him, and Han's father agreed.
The relationship between the two families is so close, even if there is no matter that he saved Zhen Yan, they will often invite each other to have a meal with the whole family, and they will not hypocritically pretend to be polite.
"Aunt Han~ You are so beautiful!" As soon as Zhen Yu looked up, he saw Han's mother walking out of the bedroom, and when she got up to say hello, she blurted out the truth.
Han's mother is the accountant of the transfer station, she sits in the office all the year round, and the years have not left any traces on her face, even if she gives birth to two sons, she still maintains a good figure.
At this time, she was praised by Zhen Yu with a serious face, and she couldn't help laughing, "Hehe~ Xiaoyu~ You left early yesterday, and the eldest lady hasn't gotten off work yet." You haven't come to our house for a long time~ remember to come often in the future~"
Zhen Yu pursed her lips and nodded, she didn't remember at all why she hadn't come to the Han family for a long time, but there was no need to dwell on the past now.
Han's mother patted the top of Zhen Yu's head, "Auntie is going to work~ You go to play with the two of them~"
"En~~" Zhen Yu nodded.
Han's mother walked towards the door, and Han's father's voice sounded from the side, "You go directly to Hailong's house after work at night~Today he has a treat~"
"Okay~ I see."
Zhen Yu went directly to knock on Han Mingyue's door, and after two sounds, the door opened inward.
Zhen Yu stood at the door and didn't go in, and said to Han Mingyue, who let go of the way: "My family has a treat, I don't read in the afternoon, and I'll see you in the evening." ”
Han Mingyue was only stunned for a moment, and then beckoned to her, "You come in first." ”
Zhen Yu just wanted to turn around and leave, but when he heard the words, he paused and walked into the room.
"Sit!" Han Mingyue pulled a chair and put it in front of Zhen Yu, and sat down at the desk by herself.
"......" No! Why do you still have a posture of a long talk?
I still have things, things, things, things......
"After you left, I read two fairy tales, "The Little Mermaid" and "The Ugly Duckling." Han Mingyue said to herself.
Zhen Yu nodded, silent.
"You say cruelty, I can see it. But where does the darkness come from? ”
"Just ask this?" Zhen Yu had a headache, she didn't notice it for a while and revealed some bad thoughts, didn't she tell him that it was a joke? Why is he still more serious?
"Yes!"
