Chapter 359: Thanks to Uncle All These Years
If he is in a hurry, Bai Xiqi will cry out loud, in that era when innocence cannot tolerate a little adulteration, crying is the best, a weapon to fight back. Zhu Yiheng didn't expect her to cry so easily, and he didn't know how to coax her, so he had to watch her, lie on the table, cry, sob! The little body couldn't stop shaking, like a dog's tail grass that was about to be wiped out.
He remembered that his little sister had also had this face, crying! Sobbing!
Bai Xiqi only felt that someone was gently patting her shoulder, and the uncomfortable feeling in her heart was reduced by more than half, and she raised her head indifferently, the tears on her little face that were still fading were like dewdrops left after a big storm.
Zhu Yiheng handed her a handkerchief and said, don't cry.
She silently took the handkerchief and really didn't cry anymore.
Since then, Zhu Yiheng has never bullied her again, and she no longer feels that he is as annoying as a pig. Of course, she will also call him a pig, he just laughs, smiles brightly, and occasionally has a fight with her, and the 38th line, with the gradual passage of time, has long lost its original traces.
Yes, they're all growing up.
She asked him why the children in Moonlight City were all surnamed Bai and you weren't.
Zhu Yiheng's clear eyes flashed with endless thoughts, and he said, because I don't belong here, one day, I will walk out of the Moonlight City.
In 2000, the flowers bloomed just right.
The fruits of family planning in the Moonlight City are highlighted, there are obviously fewer children in the town, and the mayor of the town is so big that all the women are eager to step on the big belly, like the leaders from the province to show the great achievements of family planning under the guidance of the party.
Bai Xiqi said, Mayor Town, our family planning in Moonlight City is about to go bankrupt, look at your belly, how many months?
The mayor's face was red and white.
At that time, the young man was standing sideways at the intersection of the only road leading to the outside world in the Moonlight City, and his shadow seemed so long and tangled as the sun set.
"Goodbye." Zhu Yiheng habitually took out MP3 from his pocket, put on headphones, and quietly listened to the old wolf sing "You at the Same Table".
Bai Xiqi attended one of the best middle schools in the city, where there were 16 girls and 16 boys in the class, and her table was a little girl with oblique bangs that reached her ears and temples, thin and small, quiet as lavender in the afternoon.
The time of the teenager is so beautiful that it is easy to forget, compared to the little girl in front of her, she will always think of the cold and arrogant young man intentionally or unintentionally, yes, now he has also walked out of the Moonlight City? She didn't understand, was Moonlight really that disgusting? But after all, there is her home, there are her memories, how precious memories are.
Who said that real-life stories are not as pretentious as they are? In the second semester of the second year of high school, a new transfer student came to the class, and the teacher said that his name was Zhu Yiheng and he was from Moonlight City.
Zhu Yiheng and Bai Xiqi were so surprised that they directly covered their mouths with their hands.
It's been four years, four years! He still hasn't changed, his hands are in his jeans pockets, his eyes are indifferent like unfathomable stars in the dark night, indifferently looking at this ever-changing human world.
She heard Lin Xiaowan at the same table whisper softly, he is so good-looking.
Everything happened too suddenly, but she was more happy, after all, in such a place far away from home, to be able to have a hometown person, an old person, to talk to herself, is not as lonely as before. However, Zhu Yiheng doesn't seem to like to talk to her very much, and several times, she deliberately wanted to talk to him and provoke a memory of her youth, for example, she served as a representative of the Chinese class in the class, and when she handed in her homework, she would walk in front of him, that, Zhu Yiheng, you still write the same words as when you were in elementary school. At this time, his thick eyebrows seemed to be caressed by a slight wind, but in an instant he returned to his original calm, he only said "oh", and then said that it was all over, what is the use of mentioning it now?
On a warm spring afternoon when Bai Xiqi received his first love letter, Zhu Yi took Lin Xiaowan's hand and walked together on the tree-lined avenue covered with flowers on campus.
She thought it was incredible, but in an instant, everything changed so drastically, and she didn't have time to think about it, and she didn't have time to accept it.
She always felt that he must have experienced something in the time since she left, otherwise, why every time she inadvertently met his dark and gloomy eyes, he always showed endless sadness, clear eyebrows and eyes, full of the outline of the old time.
That day was really just an accident, but it was also that accident that made this seemingly frozen ending collapse in an instant.
At noon, Bai Xiqi came down from the cafeteria and went to the classroom, at this time the door of the classroom was open, she didn't think much about pushing it in directly, and then, she saw him.
Zhu Yiheng squatted on the ground like an injured little beast, his hands were tightly covering his stomach, beads of sweat were rolling on his forehead, he said, it hurts me to death, my stomach is ...... My stomach hurts.
She immediately "buzzed" in her head, and after living for 17 years, she realized that she had so much strength that she was able to carry him all the way to a hospital near the school, which was 1.80 meters tall.
The doctor said that it was acute appendicitis and that he would be hospitalized for observation, during this period, Zhu Yiheng seemed to be less repulsive to her, and occasionally talked to her about the things at the same table back then, like an old friend, cordial and natural.
However, Lin Xiaowan found her, her face was condensed with aggressive and terrifying, she said Bai Xiqi, don't cry in this cat and fake mercy, aren't you miserable enough to hurt him?
She opened her mouth, and I hurt him?
Approaching the eve of Bai Xiqi's graduation, Baishui City went to find the mayor of Moonlight City, and he didn't talk much, but after a few red envelopes, a few packs of good cigarettes, and a few glasses of good wine, the drunken mayor made a package ticket and said, "It's up to me for your daughter to go to XX Middle School."
That year, going to XX Middle School was the dream of all the children in Moonlight City, and Zhu Yiheng, who had excellent grades, wanted to leave this place, so he studied hard, and finally reached the admission score of the school, but he did not receive the admission letter from the school.
Later, his mother told him that you didn't pass the exam, and it was Bai Xiqi who got in.
At that time, Zhu Yiheng didn't believe that Bai Xiqi, who was always below him in every exam, would be admitted to XX Middle School, he didn't give up, he knew that he knew about the "collusion" between Baishui City and the mayor, and that his grades were dropped.
Lin Xiaowan spit out the last word, and watched Bai Xiqi's complexion change regularly, from pink to red, from red to white, and then white to miserable white. Although it is a little cruel, at least, a certain woman hooks the corners of her lips, which can make her die.
During the winter vacation, she received a letter from Bai Yishi.
Light blue graceful letterhead, quietly written in a few lines.
Bai Xiqi suddenly smiled, thinking of the good-looking boy who used to run with her on the streets of Moonlight City, and I don't know what he has become now, after so long, even if they stand together, they may not recognize each other.
But then, the content of the letter made her laugh at all.
"Bai Xiqi:
Hello, forgive my presumptuousness, I heard that you are in XX middle school and you are very busy with your studies, right? Your grandmother, the poor and kind old man, died of a heart attack yesterday, and I hope you will hurry back to the Moonlight City. ”
Bai Yishi's pen"
……
The way back to Moonlight City was quite smooth, and she couldn't figure out how her grandmother, who had always been healthy, had a heart attack? In the years since she left, what else has happened in Moonlight City?
Moonlight City is far away from XX Middle School, except for the summer vacation, Bai Xiqi mostly stays in the school the rest of the time. It's rare to go home once.
Moonlight City hadn't changed much, but it still felt rusty for her. It was raining lightly, and there was an oppressive atmosphere in the air, and when it rained, Shuer raised her eyebrows, and she saw Bai Yishi.
It was a young man holding an umbrella, with picturesque eyes, as if he had a natural integration with the undescriptive Jiangnan town, she was stunned at first, and then called out his name - "Bai Yishi".
Relaxed and natural, as if, they are all innocent children back then, and they will fight for a bun.
"What about my mom and brother?" When I stepped into the house, I only saw the drunken Whitewater City.
Bai Yishi put away the umbrella and shook the water droplets on it, which seemed to be very difficult to open his mouth.
Bai Xiqi never thought that in just one year, so many things would happen at home. Baishuicheng, who has been away on business all the year round, finally returned home once, but found that his wife was with outsiders, and Baishuicheng, who was angry, beat his wife with a blue nose and swollen face, and Bai Wanyi ran away from home with her son that night, and left a letter saying that Hecai was not actually his son.
Back then, Baishuicheng only wanted a son, but he never thought that the son he got so easily was not his own.
Whitewater City walked towards her with a puzzled smile, and the air was filled with the smell of alcohol.
He said, Bai Xiqi, my good daughter.
Bai Xiqi, Dad will never snub you again in the future, what you want to eat, what you want to wear, Dad will satisfy you.
Dad doesn't want a son anymore.
After the grandmother heard that her daughter ran away with the man, she was so angry that she didn't catch her breath before she could catch her breath.
Bai Xiqi was busy with the funeral, but fortunately, with Bai Yishi's help, this big boy gave her rare warmth.
Unlike Zhu Yiheng, Bai Yishi was born to belong to the Moonlight City, no matter how sorry he was for this small town, but after all, this is where he grew up and played, and after graduating from junior high school, he opened a small shop in the town and stopped selling steamed buns.
He's going to stay here forever.
"When are you going back to school?" Bai Yishi suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked straight at her.
There is no panic dodging, there is just a kind of nature as light as autumn water, and the mutual care between old friends.
"In a few days," the corners of her mouth outlined a good-looking arc, "in a few months, the college entrance examination will be completed." ”
Zhu Yiheng also came to her, Bai Xiqi only felt that he owed him so much, he wanted to leave Moonlight City as soon as possible, but because of his father's "behavior", he almost passed by XX Middle School.
"You've lost weight." He still spoke in a faint tone, but the gentleness that flashed between his eyebrows made it impossible to catch it.
"Lin Xiaowan told you everything from beginning to end? That's why you didn't say goodbye that day in the hospital, right? ”
