030 Strangers who move into the house
Yi Jing also got up and sent Zhuang Rui to the door, closed the door, Yi Jing slowly took out the necklace, close to her heart, she leaned against the door, until the necklace in her heart was covered with heat before walking to the bed.
Open the drawer next to the bed, there are a lot of delicate small boxes inside, all of which are birthday gifts from Zhuang Rui, plus the necklace has exactly ten boxes, Zhuang Rui gives them all delicate small objects, and it will not be too crowded to put the necklace in.
Yi Jing reached out and touched the small boxes one by one, counting them, they had known each other for ten years.
The scene of the first time I saw Zhuang Rui seemed to be just yesterday, he carried a schoolbag, followed behind Wang Wanruo, and moved into her house like this. Wang Wanruo and Yi Zhonghe did not hold a wedding, and they were considered married after receiving the certificate. For two strangers who suddenly lived in her own house, Yi Jing will still be a little repulsed and uneasy, she has no mother since she was a child, and her mind is extremely sensitive, but because she is very sensible, so those who think that her father will not want her own careful thoughts when she gets married are hidden in her heart very carefully, in front of Wang Wanruo, she tries her best to behave well-behaved and sensible.
Like Yi Jing, Zhuang Rui was also extremely sensitive during that time, but his idea was that if Wang Wan married someone else, he would completely forget his father, he clearly remembered how loving his parents were when his father was alive, remembered that when his father died, his mother was too sad and couldn't afford to be sick, and he remembered that he was tiptoeing in front of the stove to cook a bowl of porridge for his mother at that time. In the most difficult days, I and my mother have come over, why does my mother still marry other men.
Originally, Zhuang Rui's longing for his father had gradually faded, but during that time, he missed his father even more than when his father died.
On the first night she moved in, Yi Jing only glanced at Wang Wanruo and Zhuang Rui, then ran back to the room and never came out. Until dinner, Yi Zhonghe knocked on Yi Jing's door, and that day Yi Jing was wearing a flower skirt and a ball head, which was beautiful and cute.
Zhuang Rui sat quietly at the dining table, and when Yi Jing walked over, he raised his eyes to look at this beautiful little girl.
Yi Zhonghe said, "Jingjing, this is Aunt Wang, call someone quickly." ”
Yi Jing looked at Wang Wanruo, and slowly, she lowered her head and said softly, "Aunt Wang is good." ”
Wang Wanruo walked over and wanted to take Yi Jing's little hand, but saw her inadvertently shrink her hand. Wang Wanruo said, "Jingjing, come over and eat." ”
Yi Zhonghe said again: "This is Brother Zhuang Rui." ”
Yi Jing still said in a very soft voice: "Brother Zhuang Rui is good." ”
Zhuang Rui nodded lightly and did not speak.
Yi Zhonghe pulled Yi Jing down beside him, Yi Jing lowered her head and didn't eat a few bites of food, and the dishes that Yi Zhonghe put into her bowl barely moved.
Zhuang Rui also lowered his head, finished eating, put the chopsticks aside in a regular manner, and waited for Wang Wanruo and Yi Zhonghe to stand up after eating and help clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
Yi Jing sat on the stool and peeked at Wang Wanruo and Zhuang Rui, Zhuang Rui was wearing a white shirt that day, very tall, slightly thin, and his eyebrows and eyes had begun to look like they are now. Yi Jing glanced at Zhuang Rui and immediately looked away.
Wang Wanruo put Zhuang Rui's luggage into Yi Jing's next room, at that time Zhuang Rui was in his first year of high school, and there were a lot of books in his suitcase, and there was a photo album hidden in the stack of books, which was when his father had just died, Zhuang Rui was afraid that Wang Wanruo would be uncomfortable and secretly hid it.
Wang Wanruo took out the clothes in Zhuang Rui's suitcase and put them in the closet, and Zhuang Rui sandwiched the photo album in the book and placed it neatly on the desk. After tidying up the room, Wang Wanruo looked at Zhuang Rui, "Have a good rest." ”
No matter what reason Wang Wanruo wants to marry another, Zhuang Rui has never cried and made trouble, Wang Wanruo looked at him so sensible, very distressed, she would rather him be like other adolescent boys, mess with her, turn his face with her, but he never said a word.
After Wang Wanruo left the room, Zhuang Rui sat at the desk, took out the photo album from the pile of books, and didn't open it, just looked at the cover and read it all night.
The next day, Yi Zhonghe drove Zhuang Rui and Yi Jing to school. Yi Jing walked to the side of the car and opened the door, letting Zhuang Rui in first, Zhuang Rui whispered to Yi Jing, "Thank you." ”
The word 'thank you' was the first sentence Zhuang Rui said to Yi Jing. Yi Jing was only in elementary school at that time, she was small, she looked up at Zhuang Rui, Zhuang Rui sat inside, and left a place for Yi Jing.
Yi Jing also sat in, Yi Zhonghe took the milk, poked his head in and handed a box to each of them, Zhuang Rui still politely said "Thank you" when he took the milk. ”
Along the way, all three of them were unusually quiet. Arrived at Zhuang Rui's school first, Yi Zhonghe parked the car at the door, and after Zhuang Rui got out of the car, Yi Zhonghe opened the car window and poked his head out and said to Zhuang Rui, "Don't be distracted, go to class well." ”
Zhuang Rui nodded, turned around and left.
After restarting the car, Yi Zhonghe asked Yi Jing, "Do you like this new big brother?"
Yi Jing lowered her head and did not speak.
Yi Zhonghe said, "Don't you like it? ”
Yi Jing still didn't speak, Yi Zhonghe glanced at her through the mirror, "In the future, Aunt Wang and Brother Zhuang Rui will be a family with us, Jingjing wants to get along with her brother, do you know?" ”
Yi Jing nodded, still refusing to speak.
Yi Zhonghe sighed, his daughter, since her mother died, was no longer as lively and cheerful as other little girls, and became silent and quiet. The more he thought about it, the more distressed he became.
On the weekend, Zhuang Rui came back from school, and Yi Jing couldn't see him a few times, plus the two of them didn't like to talk much, so there was very little communication.
Until Yi Jing was in the first year of junior high school, she transferred to Zhuang Rui's middle school. Yi Jing is rarely excited, sitting in the car, it is obviously a road that passes every day, but it is different because of different identities.
Yi Zhonghe glanced at Yi Jing from time to time, "I'm going to junior high school, are you happy?"
Now Yi Jing already has a girl's careful thoughts, and she is more beautiful, but she lacks the cuteness of a child, and Yi Jing seems to be a little colder than her peers. Even when answering Yi Zhonghe, she seemed a little indifferent: "Hmm." ”
The teaching buildings of the junior high school and the high school are separated, but the stadium is not separated, and there is exactly one of Zhuang Rui's class and Yi Jing's class in the two physical education classes every week.
Every time she goes to that physical education class, Yi Jing always likes to sit on the lawn by the basketball court and watch Zhuang Rui play basketball. Every time Zhuang Rui was tired, he would walk up to Yi Jing and sit down, and Yi Jing handed Zhuang Rui a bottle of mineral water.
Sitting on the lawn, the two men were silent most of the time. But no one is embarrassed by that silence.
After less than five minutes of rest, Zhuang Rui would get up and go to play basketball again.
Yi Jing still watched Zhuang Rui running on the basketball court until the end of class.
For Yi Jing, the time spent sitting on the lawn with Zhuang Rui constituted her entire memory of the first year of junior high school, and when she was a little older, Zhuang Rui went abroad. In Yi Jing's memory, Zhuang Rui appeared for a short time, so that Yi Jing was not impressed by Zhuang Rui, but when he reappeared in her world, she could recall the details of everything between them, including her anxiety and caution when they first met, how she was happy to feel as if she really had a brother when she received his gift for the first time, the deer in her heart when he walked over from the basketball court for the first time, and the anxiety of being found by him secretly watching him.
The first time Zhuang Rui walked from the basketball court to the lawn and sat down next to Yi Jing, Yi Jing's face immediately had a thin layer of red, fortunately, the shade of the trees covered part of her, it was summer again, everyone's face was hot, and it was normal for her to be so white that it was so hot that it was red.
Under the dim light, Yi Jing's beautiful side face looked very soft. Her slender fingers twined the edge of the drawer and closed it gently. She got up, turned off the bedside light, and sighed silently as the room went dark.
The next morning, Wang Wanruo woke up early, and she prepared breakfast in the kitchen with Aunt Li. The first thing Zhuang Rui did after getting up was to knock on Si Kouxing's door, and Si Kouxing also got up early, but she didn't know when it was appropriate to go out, so she sent a message to Zhuang Rui and asked him to come over and call herself after washing.
Zhuang Rui smiled: "You don't have to be so restrained. ”
Si Kouxing couldn't laugh, she had a bitter face, "Sister Qiao called me last night, and I have to return to work tomorrow." ”
Zhuang Rui's eyes dimmed, "When are you leaving?"
Si Kouxing said, "Let's finish eating early." ”
"In such a hurry?"
"Hmm."
Zhuang Rui raised his hand and touched Si Kouxing's head, and Si Kouxing obediently handed his head to him to touch.
Yi Jing's room was opposite Si Kou Xing, Yi Jing, who opened the door, happened to see this scene, Zhuang Rui heard the movement behind him and immediately withdrew his hand, he turned around, "Jingjing, get up." ”
Si Kou Xing also smiled at Yi Jing.
Yi Jing nodded, and immediately lowered her head again, "I'll go down first." Then he walked away with his head down.
Zhuang Rui glanced back at Si Kouxing, Si Kouxing didn't say anything more, and pulled Zhuang Rui down.
After bringing breakfast to the table, Yi Jing remembered that she didn't call Huang Xiaoxiao, and she got up, "I'll call Xiaoxiao." Originally, she was going to call Huang Xiaoxiao before she came out of the room, but she actually bumped into Zhuang Rui and Si Kouxing, and forgot that it was still such a thing.
Huang Xiaoxiao came down from the upstairs sleepy-eyed, if it was at home or school, it would be early for her to get up. She sat down and kept fighting with perseverance.
Yi Jing poured milk for Huang Xiaoxiao, "Haven't woken up yet?" ”
Huang Xiaoxiao took a bite of toast and drank a sip of milk, and swallowed, "Well, by the way, are you going to school today?" ”
Yi Jing sat down next to Huang Xiaoxiao, "Go, what about you, do you want to go." ”
Huang Xiaoxiao said, "Our school is not as strict as yours, I have to go home for a day." ”
Yi Jing nodded.
Wang Wanruo looked at Si Kouxing with a smile, and Zhuang Rui saw in her eyes the more pleasing it became. Yi Jing also glanced at Si Kouxing, and immediately lowered her head casually.
Si Kou Xing was seen a little unnaturally, and she quietly ate the food on her plate.
Wang Wanruo said, "Xing'er, did you sleep well last night?" ”
After Si Kouxing swallowed the food, she turned her head and spoke to Wang Wanruo: "I slept well." ”
Wang Wanruo nodded, stopped talking, and the whole room became quiet again.
Si Kouxing had to go back to pack her luggage, so after eating early, she and Zhuang Rui left. Yi Jing and Huang Xiaoxiao also left after Zhuang Rui and them left for a while, and only Yi Zhonghe and Wang Wanruo were left in the whole family. After everyone was gone, Wang Wanruo felt empty in her heart.
After packing up her things, Si Kouxing went to the first floor like a suitcase, and before leaving, she looked at the bouquet of roses in the vase that was still bright red, the bright red flowers and Zhuang Rui's figure came into Si Kouxing's eyes, not to mention that people are more delicate than flowers, but Zhuang Rui's fair and handsome face, Si Kouxing couldn't ignore it anyway.
Si Kou Xing's gaze also shifted from the bouquet of roses to Zhuang Rui, and finally froze.
She turned around and ran towards Zhuang Rui, who was caught off guard, but still caught her. Si Kouxing hugged Zhuang Rui tightly: "If only I could stay by your side all the time." ”
Zhuang Rui gently stroked Si Kouxing's back, he knew that it was impossible for Si Kouxing not to work, so he didn't say anything wishful thinking like asking her not to work. He was silent.
When Si Kouxing's mobile phone rang, the two of them let go, and Sister Qiao said on the other side of the phone, "The car has arrived, get down." ”
Zhuang Rui sent Si Kou Xing downstairs, and saw Sister Qiao beckoning to them from a distance, "This way." ”
After getting into the car, Si Kouxing glanced at Zhuang Rui again, "I'm leaving." ”
Zhuang Rui said, "Well, go ahead." ”
