"Grandpa, you are so experienced and have seen so many people, what do you say is wrong with Zhong Xuecheng?" At nine o'clock on Saturday night, three generations sat on the couch and chatted.

"I was scared of being beaten and broke out. If you are beaten every day, sooner or later it will break out, but people will break out in different ways, some people will break out internally, some people will break out externally, and some people will break out inside and outside. When I beat others, I also beat myself, and I saw this meeting when I was in my thirties. ”

"Then what do you think will happen if you are taught to be stupid? Is it an internal outbreak or an external outbreak like my second brother? "Gui Ying is idle.

"Drink too much hot and sour belly soup tonight!" The old horse gave her a blank look, grinning and frowning.

"So...... Grandpa, do you mean him...... Mentally fine! "Boy guessed.

"I asked you Grandpa Zhong, and he said that the baby doesn't eat or talk, and there is no other major problem! If you have convulsions, foaming at the mouth, gibberish, incontinence, or madness, then it's a mental problem! After speaking, Lao Ma turned his head to face Gui Ying, intending to verify.

Gui Ying shook her head, her eyes half-closed and whispered, "Anyway, I'm not optimistic." ”

"I was very well-behaved before I finished school, very shy, and never hit anyone, but that day I was very loud, and I was terrified! I haven't even hit her! After speaking, Tsai glanced at his sister's door, and Yang Yang had just fallen asleep at this time.

"Didn't you see it on TV? The whole family was killed, inspirational revenge, the palace fight was bullied, and suddenly the heart turned black and began to resist, and the insulted and scolded people wanted to change their ...... I see, the study is purely stimulated, and it can't turn around for a while! After speaking, the old horse took a sip of tea.

"I would like to suggest...... She went to the hospital to test the baby's mental state, but she didn't dare to say it! Gui Ying was worried.

"Don't take people for fools, you can't think of people who are mothers? Maybe people have thought of it a long time ago, but they just don't want to. The old horse sighed.

"If it's really a mental illness, I've been dragging it out and not wanting to ...... Will it be delayed? Tsai asked with a frown.

Adults look left and right, pick their noses, blow tea from blowing tea, silent.

"I didn't say a word for a whole week, seven days! Leave me alone, I'll suffocate to death! I started talking to myself when I didn't speak 24 hours a day! How can a man go seven days without speaking? After a long time, the rare and strange teenager voiced his position.

There was silence again.

"Big, are you brewing tea in the jar from his grandmother?" Gui Ying diverted the topic.

"Well, it's small, it tastes good, and it's not bad."

After saying that Lao Ma drank tea, Gui Ying picked his nails, leaving a young man to stare dryly.

It was a busy day, at nine o'clock in the evening, Zhong Xuemei got off the bus and returned to the dormitory from the west gate of the school, tired and yawned frequently along the way. A tutor was no longer enough for her, and she had to find another part-time job. During the National Day in October, she joined a work-study organization in the school, in which there will be some part-time opportunities from time to time - writing articles, sending small advertisements, working as a waiter, working as a tutor, working as a model, and working as an hourly worker...... Xuemei has been paying attention. Since learning that her brother is sick, she has been reading the news of the part-time group almost a dozen times a day. On Thursday, she was finally given a job — handing out flyers for a gym. In the first half of today, I went to the city center to distribute leaflets, and in the second half of the day, I went back to Yubei District to make up lessons for students, and when I returned to school in the evening, the girl was really tired.

Mom will pay her living expenses on time on the first day of every month, and the amount is not low, and her living expenses are considered to be above the average level in the girls' dormitory. As soon as grandpa called, he asked her if she was short of money, and she always loved to send her red envelopes when she was empty - eighty-eight, one hundred and eighty-eight, two hundred and eighty-eight, and during the National Day, grandpa also sent her a big red envelope of five hundred and eighty-eight. Every time a simple girl receives a red envelope from her grandfather, she is so uncomfortable that she can't cry and can't speak. In fact, Zhong Xuemei has never been short of money, and secretly she has always had a small savings, which she has saved since junior high school - New Year's money, birthday red envelopes, and college gifts...... In December, the deposit was just 30,000 yuan.

In that case, why is the girl working so hard?

It's just because Zhong Xuemei is too sensible and sees too clearly. When Xuemei was in her third year of high school, she had already found that the shop's business was not working, and she could see it from the sparse accounts, the lack of customers, her mother's expression, and her grandfather's silence. She didn't know how much money the family owed, but she could see from her mother's rapid aging, her unusually busy two-time job, and her grandfather's unprecedented work at the age of nearly 70. If everything is going well at home, then the current income is barely sustainable, and if something happens to the family, where can I get the money? Grandpa is old, and he often says that he has weak legs, so if he falls down one day, where will the medicine money come from? The younger brother is often beaten, Xuemei has already found out that the seven or eight-year-old brother is not the same as the three or four-year-old brother, what if the younger brother has a moth one day? My mother supports a large family by herself, if my mother falls ill one day, who will pay off the debts and support the family? There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck, Zhong Xuemei seems to understand this truth when she was born.

The mountains have trees and branches, and the heart is pleasing to the king.

The excessive burden of thought makes Zhong Xuemei unable to enjoy the beauty of this age, and in the face of Chen Luo, the senior brother who likes her and she likes, she is always retreating and does not dare to take a step forward. She is accustomed to putting all kinds of seemingly reasonable rules and regulations in the middle of this relationship, and she uncontrollably adds a lot of obstacles to the originally simple campus relationship. Maybe it's the scarred and leaky family that drags her down, maybe it's the too sensible self that drags down her flower season, maybe it's the inferiority, shyness, introvertedness, and depth that hinders her from being her true self in front of her handsome, burly, fiery and high-profile brother.

Reading Jun is like a bright candle, tormenting and tearing.

The brothers and sisters in the academy are all curious about what Senior Brother Chen Luo's girlfriend looks like - a shy flower in the closed moon? Miss Daughter? Excellent, excellent? Students naturally assume that they have nothing to do with themselves. Zhong Xuemei didn't want her classmates to find out or spread the word that her brother's girlfriend was doing part-time jobs all day long—all kinds of part-time jobs. But can she let go of her part-time job? Why is it that between her senior brother and part-time job, she resolutely chooses the latter without thinking, and every time she chooses, she will fall into endless regret and self-blame - the cycle repeats, unable to extricate herself. Does Zhong Xuemei not like her senior brother Chen Luo? How can it be!

The girl is confused, she doesn't know what is wrong with herself, she is uncomfortable everywhere, and she is not confident everywhere. The tired Zhong Xuemei had insomnia because of the incident of missing her senior brother yesterday, and she felt that she had become the stupid donkey of Buridan between love and bread, looking left and right, right and left, and finally standing dryly in the middle, hesitating all the time.

If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight?

Early on Sunday morning, Lao Ma got up and spit out a few mouthfuls of phlegm to clear his throat, and then came to the balcony to tear up the old yellow calendar. Today is December 22, 2019, the twenty-seventh day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, the day of the year of the pig. Do not move, open, move, start, travel, bury, open, or travel. When throwing away yesterday's old yellow calendar, Lao Ma Heran found that there were still two big characters on today's paper that he hadn't read - winter solstice.

"Winter solstice, today!"

The old horse muttered to himself, glanced at the shorts and sandals on his body, and laughed. Immediately filled the cigarette powder and smoked hookah, and in the process, he did not forget to call the second child to urge him to send cigarettes. If an old smoker of more than 50 years breaks his tobacco leaves, it is no different from breaking half his life. Knowing that the tobacco leaves were on the way, the old horse let go of his heart. He was twitching his fingers and muttering.

"The winter solstice is Laba, Laba is a small year, and after the small year is over, it will be Chinese New Year's Eve. Ten days, fifteen days, thirty days, oops, the New Year will be celebrated in thirty-two days, why is there no New Year's flavor at all? ”

At seven o'clock, the old man went out to buy breakfast, and at nine o'clock the little ones woke up, and the family had a rare breakfast. The rippling hair stands on end, and yesterday's garlic seedling braids have become rain-beaten dog's tail grass today; Gui Ying is not much better, her hair is disheveled, her clothes are disheveled, and the corners of her eyes are fluttering; The boy has ropes hanging everywhere, and he is not too cold in short-sleeved shorts.

"It's the winter solstice, why don't you make some dumplings?" Lao Ma deliberately buried Gui Ying.

Gui Ying hadn't made dumplings for more than ten years, and the three generations laughed softly.

"I did the math, there are still thirty-two days left for the New Year." After the old horse finished speaking, he stuffed a hard-boiled egg into his mouth.

"Oh my God! That said, the time for the final exam is closer! It's so stressful! Tsai interjected.

"How about the New Year this year?" Lao Ma asked Gui Ying.

"Poof-buy some melon seed candy, buy clothes for everyone, paste a couplet window flower on Chinese New Year's Eve, send red envelopes on time on the first day of the new year, call to greet the New Year, and when you have time to eat with Hyosung and their family to go out to play together, what else?" That's all! Ma Guiying, who had insomnia last night, was a little unmotivated.

The old horse was stunned, blinked a few times, and asked, "Don't you go to your mother-in-law's house?" ”

"The main owner has moved out, what are you doing at your mother-in-law's house?" Gui Ying was still angry when she thought of Zhiyuan.

The old horse looked at the boy, his eyes were a little distracted, and the egg in his mouth was no longer chewed.

Tsai explained: "Originally, I went a lot when I was a child, and after my grandmother married Grandpa Zhang, it was inconvenient, so I didn't go." I haven't been to Yongzhou for the New Year for many years, but my dad often goes to the Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day, Dragon Boat Festival, and Qingming Festival, and I go almost every year during the summer vacation. ”

"Oh yes. I still think that if you go to Hunan for the New Year, I will travel with your Grandpa Zhong and that Grandpa Ma, and the three of us will travel in Shenzhen, play cards, and sing operas. The old horse laughed after speaking.

"Think beautifully! A total of seven days off, up to ten days, what can you do? Sleep for the first three days, sleep for the last three days, and sleep for the middle four days! I've been tired for a year, and I rely on annual leave to replenish my energy! Gui Ying yawned after speaking.

Lao Ma glanced at him, took a breath of cold air between his teeth, and asked: "Who does the cleaning, washing bedding, steaming buns, frying oil pots, making roast meat, making steamed buns, and making dumplings?" ”

"Hehehe...... The ghost does! I haven't done it since I came to Shenzhen! I'm tired all year round and still do those! Gui Ying shook her head again and again.

"If you don't get those, is that called the New Year? Oh, you've never fried the frying pan for the babies! The old horse's expression was a little divine.

"After getting married, I got it for a year or two, I didn't want to eat it all day, I didn't want to eat it, and the next day it was another day to clean up, and the greasy smell at home couldn't be dispersed for several days, and it was tired and dirty and couldn't make a name. If you want to eat hemp candy, you can fry it yourself. Gui Ying squinted and laughed after speaking. Knowing that the old man wouldn't, he deliberately got angry with him.

"Lazy! You're lazy! What is the technical content of fried hemp candy, it will not be in one year or two years, it will be naturally cooked in three years and five years, you are too lazy to get it, what is the! ”

"Oh yes, yes, I'm just too lazy to get it!" After Gui Ying finished speaking, she glared at the old man slyly.

The old horse can't do anything about her, and he can't force her to do it with a sickle. In Tunli, in the entire Weibei and even the entire Shaanxi and the entire north, there is a set of rules and regulations for the New Year, and people have done it one by one before it is called the New Year.

"It's boring!" The old horse shook his head again and again, his face full of contempt.

"My dear old village chief, Shenzhen is the largest immigrant city in China, the most complete immigrant city, the time when the road is the least in all seasons of the year is the time of the Chinese New Year, and the streets are deserted like a ghost town every year. Rich people take advantage of annual leave to go to Europe to play, no money to go out to the mangrove forest to climb a Phoenix Mountain, hometown people all go back to their hometown for the New Year, like us - there are four-year-old children with seventy-year-old fathers - what do you want to do if you don't count red envelopes at home? Village chief, do you have any misunderstanding about Shenzhen? Have you fantasized about Shenzhen as Majiatun again? Let me tell you, I can't even cope with the strange homework of the Bright Kindergarten - what to find tree bark to do handicrafts, paint on pebbles, record videos of memorizing poems, and pick up flower petals outdoors to make wax flowers...... When the season is out of season, the teacher asks you to find a seagull and take pictures with the seagull! Once I was doing carpentry, I directly bought a saw, and tinkered with it all day, but it didn't come to fruition! If you can't finish it, you still let me fry the twist! Oh, let's make it lively! ”

Gui Ying puffed after speaking, wiped her mouth and went back to her room to sleep. was splashed with cold water, and the old horse looked at Yangyang and couldn't turn his mind for a while. Tsai Tsai lay on the table and cooed, and his eyes slid to observe the different expressions of adults.

"Isn't it?" After a while, the old horse who came back to his senses asked the boy.

"Hmm." Tsai nodded, and then held his forehead and giggled.

The traditional New Year is so festive, it is an important part of traditional culture, why are people in the city so boring? The poor two babies have never seen the excitement of the New Year in the countryside - playing social fire, visiting temple fairs, and watching big dramas...... I can't figure it out, I still can't figure it out, the old horse is not happy after dinner, and he sits on the balcony to be happy. The times are changing, the value is changing, who wants to listen to him nag about those old things and old anecdotes? Who wants to follow his old rules? Who wants to hear the experience of a septuagenarian again? Places have changed, and so have the cultural practices carried on them. Resting on the square circle, no matter how poor a person is, he can usher in some basic respect and discourse by relying on his age, but it is very different in the city. A young man with a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan can instantly make a person who has been a village chief for 20 years shameless. The evaluation of people in this land is full of worldliness and utilitarianism, not all people think that giving a seat to a white-haired old man is a proper thing, and not all people agree that the New Year is the most grand, festive, and valuable thing of the year.

This year is a year of white water, and Lao Ma can't accept this at the moment. After all, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the whole village went out to visit the New Year, ate a big banquet in the first month of the New Year, went to relatives, purchased a large table to entertain all the younger generations, and the people in Tunli played cards and ate melon seeds to rest for more than a month.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Gui Ying was looking at the iPad in bed when suddenly her mobile phone rang. She opened it and took a look, there were a lot of messages, and she clicked on the dialog box sent to her by Wang Fuyi, and then she learned that Zhang Wencheng, deputy director of the 3rd Department of the State Council #1 Security 4 Quan, (This character is purely fictional, and the plot is also purely fictional, but because it involves sensitivity and fear of being blocked, it will be changed to Minister Zhang in the future. ) was shuang gui (because the word is sensitive, and then replaced with [cool ghost]), there was an uproar on the Internet, and WeChat large and small customer groups, company groups, and industry groups brushed and turned the page of messages.

Ma Guiying slipped out of bed, borrowed her son's Apple computer, and used the computer to surf the Internet at the large dining table. The cookie-cutter news on the webpage is paved with a thick layer, Gui Ying opened the official media and read it carefully - "According to the opinions of the *** committee, ******Zhang Wencheng was ****** and dismissed from 444 posts at two o'clock yesterday afternoon, and the **** work he was responsible for was replaced by *****, and he will be investigated by the organization from now on." "The article of just three or four hundred words has more than 3 million hits, and it was posted yesterday - Saturday - at 11 o'clock in the evening.

Ma Guiying clicked on an article published by the mainstream media, which explained in detail the specific reasons why Minister Zhang was [cool ghost]. "Serious violations of discipline and law, involving 11 suspicions, 5 bribes, 5 bribes, 5130418818617.35 yuan", Gui Ying actually smiled after reading the decimal point, only to see that it was written on the back: "After investigation, Zhang Wencheng has no principles, no organization, no concept, does not report personal matters in accordance with regulations, confrontation!" Group! weaving, refusing to carry out the decision to be planted; Special! Right! The ideology is extremely serious, public @ @权@私@用, abuse @ power @ recklessly, wantonly squandering the country @ family assets @ wealth to satisfy the extravagant life of the family; The family style is corrupt, using the influence of 2 positions @ affairs to seek positions for his 2 wives and 2 wives, and conniving at his wife to use his power to engage in @ special 2 special affairs and seek personal gain; Power 2 power @ distorted view, taking advantage of the convenience of the position or the convenience of the formation of authority and status to seek benefits for others in terms of job promotion, post adjustment, business operation, etc., and illegally accepting huge amounts of property from others. ”

Another news release this morning reads: "In the early morning of December 22, 2019, the 3rd Department of 1 Security 4 was held as a meeting to report that Zhang Wencheng received $ bribes and was suspected of illegally accepting the supervision and investigation of the State Supervision Commission. The 1 Security 4 All 3 Departments unanimously believed that Zhang Wencheng's suspected violation of the law was completely the result of his obstinate behavior and self-inflicted blame, and unanimously expressed their firm support and resolute support for the supervision and investigation of Zhang Wencheng's suspected violation of the law. ”

It's a long news, Ma Guiying pulled to the bottom is Zhang Wencheng's personal resume, and then attached a few pictures below, she clicked on it and enlarged it, and took a closer look, the person was flat and shiny in a suit, with a white pen pinned to his left breast pocket, and the clothes on the pen were pinned to the emblem. I watched a few more articles, one of which was accompanied by a video, and the woman clicked on it, and the video content was a picture of Minister Zhang's latest attendance at an event, which was the opening speech of an internal meeting. Division! The chief in a suit attended, reading the script into the microphone. Minister Zhang's face Gui Ying was not impressed, but the minister's left hand was full of confusion when Gui Ying looked at it. The left hand was white and pure, and the index finger was rolled up and held on the inside of the thumb, that is, with the base of the thumb, as if the left index finger had been cut off in half.

Such charming movements, Gui Ying has a kind of déjà vu! After a while, she slapped the table and remembered that Gui Ying had seen the minister's hand at the exhibition. It was also this strange action, and the woman was curious at the time and tried it a few times in her own hands. So Gui Ying has no impression of the minister's speech, appearance, posture, and temperament, but she remembers this action of breaking her finger very deeply! Ma Guiying watched a lot of other videos, as if Minister's finger would always be like that. Why? Ma Guiying frowned and clenched her fists for a while, regardless of the time and meal.

"What do you eat for lunch?" The old horse came over and asked.

"Huh?" Gui Ying was startled, looked at the time on the computer, and realized that it was past twelve o'clock at noon.

"Order takeout or go down and eat? Today's winter solstice, why don't you take the dolls to eat dumplings! The old horse looked half pleading.

"Eat! Eat dumplings! But...... It's getting late, let's wait a little longer. Every year on the winter solstice, there is a long queue at the dumpling restaurant downstairs, and now it is better to wait at home to queue up. ”

"Come on. The baby is hungry! The old horse said as he took the rippling snacks from the cupboard and sat down at the table to feed the child.

"Oops! Did you tell you that you were going to have a big leader open the meeting? Ma Guiying was tense all the time, and suddenly she was a little tired.

"Say, isn't the minister?" The old horse raised his eyelids for verification.

"Hmmm! And guess what? He was [cool ghost]! Last night's incident! ”

"Why?"

"Tsk! Accept 1 bribe ¥%, public ¥ power ¥ abuse ¥, family style # corrupt ......" Gui Ying smiled when she said about family style.

"What does it have to do with our ordinary people?" The old horse gave him a blank look and continued to feed the snacks.

"You said that you are a good person, during the exhibition, you were held by the stars of the bosses, and we were always bowed and looked up by our old money, saying that if you are ghosted, you will be ghosted." Ma Guiying gasped.

"Is there less such thing in ancient and modern times? "Lu Zhailang", "Butterfly Dream", "Pearl Story", "Qingzhong Spectrum", "Fifteen Runs", "Big Red Robe" ...... There are many classic Qing official dramas and big corrupt officials, and they can't finish singing Qin dramas. ”

After a moment of silence, Gui Ying raised his left hand towards the old man, then bent his left index finger down, and asked, "What kind of action is this?" ”

"What?" The old horse was puzzled.

"That ghost minister, this action is everywhere!"

"I'm afraid he doesn't have a problem with his hands!"

"Nope! I've watched several videos, and it's normal for him to hold things and hold things, but his left hand becomes like this when he is just photographed and standing dryly! ”

"Nervous...... old horse guessed with squinted eyes.

"He's still nervous as a big leader?"

"If you can't sit still, you must be nervous! Aren't you nervous about being calculated every day? After the old horse finished speaking, he stuffed the candy in his hand into his mouth and was beaten by Yangyang.

"You're nervous and didn't see you in this position, huh?" Gui Ying stretched out her left hand again to imitate.

"Why not? There were dead people in the village, and when I was young and carrying the coffin cover, my shoulders hurt so badly that the coffin couldn't fall halfway, so I could only hold on, and my hands were tense like this! The old horse stretched out his hands and made two movements similar to Minister Zhang—the little thumb, ring finger, and middle finger were bent synchronously to form a letter C, the index finger was curled up to the root, and the thumb was holding the index finger.

"Oh, I see! I'm still nervous to get to that position! Gui Ying felt that she had parsed eighty percent of this confused gesture.

"What are you doing studying that? On this big weekend, the sun is so good, everyone is hungry......" the old horse was impatient.

"You don't understand, it has something to do with our company, and it is closely related to our entire industry. That person is in charge of the entire security field, and our business is all about manufacturing security equipment – security detection, surveillance cameras, video storage, drone detection, back-end systems, ...... Our products in this industry are mainly sold to various local public security bureaus, security inspection units, and transportation departments. ”

"He cares about him, you do yours, what's the matter?"

"He committed the crime of accepting bribes, who do you say will give him a bribe from a 1 security 6 full 7 department 8 is a big leader? It is not a large company in our industry, and the government procurement is a big order of tens of millions, hundreds of millions, and billions, which company does not stare at it? ”

"Then he was arrested, did any of your bosses in this business be arrested?"

"Uh...... I'm looking, didn't you interrupt me! ”

"Don't look at it, it's faster, look at how hungry the baby is! Tsai Tsai has eaten snacks twice in the room! In the afternoon, he has to study and write homework! ”

"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! ”

Gui Ying closed the computer, picked up Yangyang and lifted it high, and then strode to call Zaizai. The family went downstairs to eat dumplings for the winter solstice.

In the afternoon, Lao Ma went to find Zhong Neng to eat dumplings, and when he mentioned how to celebrate the New Year this year, Lao Ma sighed.

Bao Xiaotang only took one exam today, and after returning home at noon, she secretly glanced at her studies, and then slept fullly, sleeping until more than five o'clock in the afternoon. Knowing that today is the winter solstice, she went out at six o'clock to buy the ingredients for making dumplings, preparing to do a big job in the evening - making dumplings while listening to the class, it is best to fill the freezer in the refrigerator for her sister, so that she can eat dumplings at any time when she wants to eat dumplings or is too busy.

In the evening, Xuecheng's grandfather came to the house and went straight to the room to whisper to Xuecheng. The two of them lay on the bed arm to arm, and the old man babbled about his old-fashioned jokes, but Xuecheng did not react but did not resist. On Sunday, business was good, and it was already half past eleven when Hyosung came back from the Malatang restaurant in the evening, and he was so tired that he couldn't move when he lay down, and when he remembered that he would go to school tomorrow, the woman was so sad that she couldn't sleep again. A thousand illusions, just afraid to come true.

At nine o'clock on Sunday night, Chen Luo, who had been tormented by love all day, couldn't help but lie in bed and send a message to Zhong Xuemei.

"Are you done working part-time?"

There was no response for a long time.

Chen Luo sent another message: "Mei, are you back to school?" If you don't reply, I'll pick you up, it's too late and it's not safe. ”

"Returned."

"In the dormitory?"

"Hmm."

The two of them kept holding their mobile phones, and the dialog box suddenly fell silent.

"Yesterday I had a bad attitude." Chen Luo broke the silence.

"It's okay, I understand."

"Want to talk? How about a walk together? ”

Zhong Xuemei looked at her watch at 9:20, she didn't know where to go, she was overjoyed in her heart, and she sent a word in a panic: "Hmm." ”

"West Meadow or East Playground?"

"Playground."

"Okay, I'm ready to go out, see you at the playground."

The young man jumped off the bed in the dormitory with a thud, startling the three roommates who were surfing the Internet. Everyone saw more clearly, and hurriedly asked him, "Are you going to see my sister again?" Did you see Sister Xuemei? Hahaha......"

"Of course, what else is there to do besides seeing the girl? Just sour guys! ”

Chen Luo picked out a coat in the closet, then put on a pair of new shoes with bright lines, put on the watch that his mother had bought him, sprayed two extra perfumes into the air, and spun in the perfume with his arms outstretched.

"Woo-shout...... Oops......" The roommates applauded.

"Don't come back tonight! The hotel opposite is always open for you! Two hours sixty-eight, four hours eighty-eight, eight hours one hundred and twenty-eight, twelve hours one hundred and sixty-eight, twenty-four hours—" The buddy on the other side of the bed shouted at his desk, and at the end of the shout, the three of them joined forces to say a number—"One hundred and eighty-eight!" ”

After speaking, everyone slapped the table and burst into laughter, laughing so much that the other dormitory students in the corridor came out to see the excitement.

"The three of you - single dogs, long-distance relationships, sibling lovers, it's so pitiful! Today's winter solstice, buddy, I'm going on a date! that you may envy and envy and hate! ”

After Chen Luo finished speaking, he threw up the corner of his khaki cloak and walked away, leaving the three of them to exhale sourly. After arriving at the playground, Chen Luo went straight to the corner where the two frequented, and found that Xuemei was already waiting for him there from a distance of twenty meters - a black hooded sweatshirt, a dark yellow short skirt, white canvas shoes, and a red knitted hat, which looked particularly cute and charming from a distance. The boy was excited, but he didn't expect Xuemei to move faster than himself.

"Are you tired today?" Chen Luo approached and asked Xuemei.

"It's tiring." Xuemei bowed her head shyly and stared at her toes.

"I'm tired, so you're still coming out?" Chen Luo was surprised and distressed.

Xuemei glanced left and right, not knowing how to answer.

"Is the matter of Dazu stone carvings in the past?" Chen Luo asked.

"I forgot." The girl lowered her eyebrows and smiled.

The two of them were separated by a meter apart, each with their own pockets, and their feet couldn't get close or far, which was embarrassing.

"Let's go! Exercise workouts. Chen Luo said as he walked slowly around the playground track, and Xuemei followed.

The two chatted for a while about Zhong Xuemei's new part-time job, new movements in the courtyard, and small troubles in the dormitory. Chen Luo has always had big doubts in his heart, and instead of figuring it out by himself, it is better to find out today. The two were walking, Chen Luo suddenly stopped and turned around, facing Zhong Xuemei. Xuemei was nervous and stepped back without lifting her feet. She took a step back, Chen Luo took a step forward, she moved half a meter to the east, and Chen Luo also moved half a meter to the east. Zhong Xuemei was a little nervous, she could probably guess what was going next, but the girl turned around and ran back to the dormitory in a premeditated way.

"I want to ask you a question."

As soon as Chen Luo spoke, Xuemei breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, it turned out that she was asking a question.

"Just ask."

After answering, Xuemei quietly moved her feet back half a foot away, and the two of them were separated by twenty centimeters, and the girl felt suffocated.

"I've been in love with you since I picked you up at the station as soon as school started, and it's been almost four months now. In the past four months, the two of us often go to and from class together, eat together, and go out to play together, and the people in the college think that the two of us are a couple, I don't bother to explain, what about you? You never seem to resist. ”

Chen Luo paused, sighed, and continued: "I admit that you are very assertive, very action-oriented, and self-disciplined, I rarely see a girl like you in the academy. I fell in love with you at first sight, in the past four months, my mind can be seen, the sun and the moon can be seen, and I have never been obscure, I like you just like you, I just want to be with you. I don't know if you remember, but I've confessed four times in the past four months, but heh, every time you can fool around. I thought to myself, maybe it's too short for you to be unsure of your mind, or maybe you don't know me and don't feel comfortable with me. ”

With a sigh and a moment of thought, the boy spoke again: "Through this Dazu stone carving, I found that I don't know you very well, and I often can't guess your thoughts. I thought you had feelings for me, but you never seemed to arrange for me on weekends and holidays; I feel that you don't resist my pursuit and liking of you, but sometimes you always ignore me when making decisions, which is incomprehensible and a little uncomfortable. For the first two months, I felt that you needed me, that you liked me, that you were even a little dependent on me, that I was a little bit attached to me, but for more than a month, this feeling came and went. I've been thinking about it all day today, I'm doing the math, positive numbers are all kinds of proof that you like me, negative numbers are all kinds of little things you forgot about me, and numbers are a certain sentence, a certain action, a certain message. After doing the math, I found that I couldn't go any further. What I thought you were a little different from the real you, and I don't want to ...... anymore When I am amway, I want to ...... I ask you plainly-do you like me Chen Luo? ”

As soon as this question came out, the frightened little beauty's heart beat wildly, as if she couldn't hold the monster was about to lose control. How to answer? Like or dislike? Still need to think about it? But the senior brother is too perfect, she is ashamed to expose her family background, embarrassment, deprivation, anxiety, and busyness to the senior brother, and she hopes that she will always be a looming perfection in the senior brother's heart, not the simple and rough after the veil is lifted. Senior brother's watch is either seven or eight thousand or one or two thousand, and he only earns one or two hundred by working hard for a day's part-time work; The senior brother has a wealthy family, his parents have a bright career, and his grandparents and maternal grandparents are also from backgrounds, but what about himself? My father is like that, my mother is like this, my grandfather is weak, and my younger brother doesn't eat or talk for days......

Thinking of this, Zhong Xuemei was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, her right foot kept rubbing the ground, kept rubbing, kept rubbing. She looked at the school building on the left and looked at the residential building on the right, tears welled up on the ground, and then she squatted on the ground and hugged her head without saying a word, and soon began to sobble softly.

Chen Luo was confused, and replied whether he liked it or not, and there were so many processes. What is the reaction? He looked down, inexplicably, and his classmates who passed by thought he was bullying girls.

"Why are you crying?" Chen Luo squatted down and asked, and then he trembled and reached out and patted Xuemei's shoulder.

Xuemei was anxious and aggrieved, and her sobbing voice became even more urgent, and the grievances of months of suppressed fatigue finally broke out. A nineteen-year-old girl is burdened with a heavy responsibility that should not be carried, and she should not let anyone else's sonorous woman and heroine's temperament hurt her initial love and girl's spring heart this time.

Xuemei's strange reaction made Chen Luo cry and laugh, and the boy persuaded in his heart: "If you don't like it, you don't like it, is it so difficult to answer?" Don't worry, Senior Brother won't pester you anymore in the future. ”

Chen Luo sighed and told himself in his heart that this was the last time he and Xuemei would meet alone. How can I bear it? How do you say parting? The boy was particularly unhappy. He didn't expect Xuemei to react to him so violently.

When Xuemei heard that the two were going to separate, she was so anxious that she buried her head deep in her knees, crying even more uncomfortable.

Chen Luo's kneeling leg changed from his left leg to his right leg, so he was twenty centimeters away from Xuemei. I didn't expect the person I liked to be so disgusted with him, the boy remained restrained and rational, he bit his lip and still patted Xuemei on the shoulder.

"Don't cry! In the future, Senior Brother will introduce you to a better object. ”

As soon as Xuemei heard the farewell words, she cried so much that she couldn't breathe, whimpering and babbling, and all her reluctance turned into tears, as if she was saying goodbye to this emotion that had not yet come. A woman's heart is too deep and too tightly covered, and sometimes she can't even figure it out. What to do? Is there any other way than to cry this nineteen-year-old girl? The first love with her high school classmate Qiu Kaihui in the style of clear soup and white water, buddy friendship, and platonic style could not give her any advice and guidance at all, so that when her heart was pounding with real guns, she had no other way to face it except to be silent, trembling and crying. What to do! The girl who hugged her head and cried inadvertently grabbed her senior brother's sleeve with her right hand, and she clung to it tightly, clutching it tightly.

Chen Luo's patting hand couldn't be withdrawn, and then he realized that he was grabbed by his junior sister. The boy frowned, pursed his lips and snickered. What does this mean? But he, in turn, wondered, what did she mean? The arm and hand that clapped the shoulder froze in the air like sculptures.

The strange classmates who passed by had already seen the famous hall, and gently reminded him in a hug beside him: "Dude!" Hug it! Hug it! ”

Chen Luo has always respected Xuemei, he was a little afraid to see her crying to death, Chen Luo loves Xuemei more than himself, how could he take advantage of it at this time? How can he be a gentleman? But she was clutching at her sleeve. A wronged person who doesn't know how to save this feeling, crying until he loses his dignity and himself; A sane man who hesitated, hesitated to the point of hesitation. God is pitiful, Xi Shenyue is about to have a heart attack, and Cupid, the god of love, can't wait to launch a rocket.

"Hug her!" Another strange girl came on the runway to remind her.

In a row. There were a few enthusiastic people five or seven meters away, and they couldn't stand the girl's crying, let alone the boy's dullness.

Chen Luo no longer hesitated, he sat on the ground and stretched out his other hand, but he still didn't dare to hug it. Seeing the lively people hugging each other and urging him, Chen Luo made up his mind and hugged Zhong Xuemei in his arms with both hands. Xuemei was no longer reserved, buried her head in her tall and warm embrace, and cried wantonly in front of her sweetheart's chest. Seeing this, the people around him let go of a good heart and scattered happily.

The girl is extremely shy, and the boy is overwhelmed; The girl was too reserved, and the boy was slightly frustrated, and almost missed out on a good marriage. People say that they are shy and cute, but they don't know that shyness is also a knife - a machete that kills good fate.

Finally hugged the beauty, this time the coke broke Chen Luo, he hugged Xuemei tightly, and did not forget to squint at the audience who applauded him silently and smiled proudly. Half an hour later, there were a lot fewer people on the playground, and Xuemei didn't cry much, just took a breath every few seconds. Warm hug, romantic hug, heart-warming hug - the two hugged each other for so long, Xuemei didn't resist, and always buried her head in her arm, so far, Chen Luo finally knew the beauty's mind.

He found Xuemei's hand and held her small hand in his palm - for a long time, but did not resist. Then Chen Luo stretched out his hand and turned it slightly, and the two of them interlocked their fingers. The world was spinning, Chen Luo was so excited that he almost couldn't sit still, his heart was beating wildly, and he suddenly trembled.

Such a beautiful scenery has missed a lifetime of regret. Chen Luo didn't dare to hesitate and kissed Zhong Xuemei's forehead. Everyone in the academy knew that they were a couple, but in fact, the two had not even held hands in the past four months. Zhong Xuemei seemed to be cold for four months, but in fact, she was trapped by love every day, this time as usual, she no longer resisted, and let her senior brother kiss her.

The dormitory closed at half past eleven, Chen Luo stepped on Xuemei and ran all the way to the door of the dormitory, and Xuemei returned to the dormitory in the persistent sharp eyes of the dormitory manager. It was close to twelve o'clock that Chen Luo climbed over the wall and entered the boys' dormitory, and after returning to the dormitory, the roommates were playing games in a group. Chen Luo didn't say much, he lay alone in bed at night and laughed, laughing over and over again, laughing until three o'clock in the morning when he was tired.

After this night, Chen Luo can be regarded as having a taste of Zhong Xuemei's unknown side - extremely introverted, extremely shy, extremely passive, and extremely weak, because of this side, Chen Luo loves Xuemei even more lawlessly. Every night, he would kiss and hug Zhong Xuemei at the door of the dormitory, and Xuemei's shyness inspired him to be savage. On weekdays, she takes great care of Zhong Xuemei, and buys snacks, clothes, daily necessities, cosmetics, etc. for Xuemei every week, which makes Xuemei's roommates envious. This good thing can be regarded as a hammer. Predicting what the future will be, please see the hundredth breakdown.
