Chapter 61: The Experience of Losing Something
When I was a student, I always felt that time passed quickly, and most of it was boring, unless you were like me, just like me, a simple and happy boy.
But happy teenagers are not always happy, for example, after losing something, their hearts still hurt.
Growing up, I lost a lot of things, footballs, keys, books (this may have been intentional), but the most impressive thing was the loss of money.
Eight years ago, on the morning of Chinese New Year's Eve, my grandmother gave me a hundred pieces of the ocean, which I put in my pocket, just in time for my friends to invite me to pick oranges, and I walked away.
To say that it is to pick, in fact, it is to engage in destruction.
The owner of the orange is a lonely old man, and he is always full of kindness to us naughty children.
His oranges depend on fate, and one year they are quite sweet, but other times they are average, but we are generous and don't care. (-Passerby B: Stinky and shameless!) - Passerby me: I'll just say it)
Along the way, we chased and played to pass the long 20-plus minutes.
When we arrived, the old man had already brought out the pots full of oranges, as if he knew that we were coming.
After turning around, I pointed to an orange to show off to the other friends, saying that I had picked the biggest one, and when someone found a bigger orange, I was unconvinced to "argue with him".
When the old man heard the voice, he came out to "persuade the fight", saying that he would take it off and take a look.
When I thought about it, it makes sense!
When the two oranges are placed together, I find that mine is indeed a little smaller, but men, they all have to have a face, who would admit that they are smaller?
"Mine is definitely the sweetest!"
"Cut, mine is sweet."
To prove myself right, I peeled the oranges and ate them in large gulps.
To be honest, the taste is average, but the face is sweet.
"Don't pretend, it's not sweet at all!"
"Who pretended to be sweet!"
"Let me taste it!"
"Why!"
"That's not sweet!"
"It's sweet!"
Alas, now that I think about it, it's naΓ―ve enough.
Well, let's get down to business!
In order to "pass" it less bluntly, I used the common remedies that I found after going off topic when I was writing an essay to lubricate - then again (knowledge points), bickering is bickering, I have not forgotten the teaching of my elders, that is, you must give money to take people's things.
I fumbled in my pocket with my orange juice-stained hands, and guess what? Didn't touch anything! Only then did I find out that the money was lost!
"Looking for what?"
I had already turned my pockets out, but I still didn't give up, and while "wiping my hands", I said, "I lost my money." β
"Don't worry, I'll look for it with you."
Just as we were about to return by the same route, the old man quickly returned to the house and took out a few pieces of candy for us to eat.
On the way back, I sucked in the smell of pleasure and seemed to forget that I had come to look for money......
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the old man said: "I didn't see it all the way, either I lost it somewhere else, or I was picked up by others." β
Only then did I come back to my senses, and it seemed that there was still a little pain in my heart.
At that time, 100 yuan was really not a small amount of money, you think, fritters are a dime, jelly beans are a penny, a hundred yuan, how much can you buy?
I lost the money, and I didn't dare to tell my family, but fortunately, my mother didn't know that she had this money, otherwise when she wanted to help me "save it", she would think that I was lying to her, and it would not be good to be beaten again.
You must have lost something, which one was the most impressive? I can't see it anyway, so you can remember it yourself.
Let's talk back to the present.
Yesterday I watched a movie in which there was a priest, and I kept staring at the cross he was wearing around his neck, because Jiang Xue once gave me one, and I liked it very much.
It happened to be very cold lately, and I could wear that lapel knit, which also has a collar that I love, and it is just right to turn three times, and it is perfect for wearing a necklace.
However, students were not allowed to wear jewelry, so I secretly put the cross necklace in my pocket and prepared to wear it around my neck when no one was looking.
However, I overlooked a problem, which is that necklaces are very "metallic......
If I hang it outside the collar of my sweater, it's looking for death, so I can only tuck it around my neck. Since I decided to wear it, even if it was so cold that I felt like self-harm, I had to endure it.
When I arrived at school, I wanted to show the necklace to Lan Yuxuan, but found that she was eating hawthorn.
"Yo, it's different if you've been with me for a long time, hey, you've learned to eat in the classroom."
"I hate it, don't you like to eat it?"
"Okay, you eat slowly, it's like you haven't eaten."
"I just haven't eaten......"
ββ¦β¦β
I snatched the hawthorn from her hand.
"What are you doing, give it back to me."
"I said, are you stupid? Eating hawthorn on an empty stomach, you have a little common sense, okay? β
"What's wrong with eating hawthorn on an empty stomach?"
ββ¦β¦β
I didn't bother to explain to her, so I took out a pack of instant noodles from the hole in the table and handed it to her.
"Eat this."
"Oh...... Thank you. β
"You're welcome, come, show you something good!"
So, I took off the necklace and showed it to her.
"Wow, that's beautiful."
"Well, it seems that you also have a vision."
"Where to buy it, I want it too."
"I don't know where to sell it, it's someone else."
"Huh? Who treated you like this and gave you a necklace? β
"Jiang Xue sent it."
"Jiang Xue? Oh, your sister, why did your sister give you a necklace? β
"If you scold me again, I'll turn my face, bear with you!"
"You're sick."
"Actually, I asked her for it, and when I saw her wearing it, I was cheeky and asked her to give it to me, I wanted to buy it, but she didn't want to give it money."
"You're pretty thick-skinned now, too. And I can see why I think it looks good. β
"Why?"
"This is obviously a women's model, and the men's one is bigger than this."
ββ¦β¦β
I don't believe it, I think it's men's! At the very least, it's unisex!
I tried to find something to refute her, but I found that I was running out of words, so I searched my stomach and said, "Give me a bite." β
At the end of the second period, everyone went to do recess exercises together, and during this time, I took off my necklace again and showed off to the audience around me who had never seen the market!
But the chain was cold again, and I remembered how I felt when I first wore it in the morning, and I couldn't help but shiver.
So I didn't wear it around my neck, but put it in my pocket.
That's it, until school at noon, Haitao wants to see it again, and he also wants to buy a similar one, it seems that it's not just a little girl who loves stinky beauty.
But I dug it around and turned it out, and guess what? Lose it!
I'm heartbroken! And those fox friends and dog friends, who didn't have any sympathy at all, all laughed at me.
I wanted to cry without tears, I couldn't calm down for a long time, I thought about every place where I might fall, and then silently walked home to eat.
At this lunch, I ate very little, but then I figured it out and started eating again, so scared that my mother thought I was going to do something bad.
Alas, that necklace, I really liked it very much, but if I lost it, I lost it, proving that it didn't belong to me, or that I didn't deserve such a nice thing.
My experience also reminds you that it is better not to put important things in your pocket, it is really easy to lose them, and even if you turn them out, you will not be able to find them......
