Chapter 168: Planting Trees Together

The latter time is really a repetition of the previous day.

The countdown time of the college entrance examination is decreasing every day with the naked eye, and the three-digit number that once seemed to be far away has now become a two-digit number, and the two-digit number has gradually changed from the original nine to six.

Those who didn't study much in front and suddenly woke up after suddenly waking up are learning every day, and they can no longer see their giggling, they have a small goal in their hearts, and they just want to achieve it in the last time.

Their progress is very fast, because their foundation is very poor, and there are many, many loopholes after filling a hole, so their college entrance examination is tantamount to gambling. If he happens to get the point he has reviewed, then he will succeed, so there will be the so-called "extraordinary performance", and the family will be happy; If he gets one of the many things he hasn't reviewed, then he will return to the level he should have, and there is nothing to regret.

Those who have been working hard have basically reached the bottleneck period of rising at this time, and it will be difficult to develop upward, because the classmates above are likely to work harder than him.

They are slow to progress, but they are very thorough. In the final college entrance examination, some psychological or physical problems may affect the final test results, which is the so-called abnormal performance, and most of them will choose to repeat the study for another year, because they are unwilling.

A Sunday at the end of April, just the time of the school holiday, the school was originally going to be delayed until May together with Labor Day, but because of the second model, it has not been a holiday for more than a month, and it is unreasonable to say that there will be no holiday this time.

This holiday should be the penultimate holiday before the college entrance examination.

Cheng Xiang still went to her relative's house on vacation, and Lin Shanghan sent a message to Cheng Xiang the next day, asking Cheng Xiang to wait for him at the gate of the park not far from where Cheng Xiang lived.

Cheng Xiang followed the instructions in Lin Shanghan's message and went to a small forest behind a high ground in the park. The place is relatively high, forming a small mound with a sign on it that reads "Dream Dust Slope".

I don't know why a small dirt slope has such an elegant name.

There are many unarranged numbers planted on this soil slope, and some of them seem to have just been planted.

Cheng Xiang raised his head when he walked to the edge of the woods, the noon sun was just in the opposite direction of him, Cheng Xiang was so shaken that he couldn't open his eyes, only to see Lin Shanghan standing against the light on the mound, he didn't know what he was holding in his hand, it was weird.

"What are you doing mysteriously," Cheng Xiang complained, "I still have a bunch of exercises to finish!" ”

Lin Shanghan seemed to laugh out loud, looking very proud.

"It's Arbor Day." Lin Shanghan said.

"Arbor Day, you big head, Arbor Day is March 12, and now it's the end of April."

"Can't we celebrate Arbor Day on the Gregorian calendar?"

"Your lunar calendar is out for more than a month!" Cheng Xiang squinted his eyes and scolded, this neurosis.

Suddenly something felt wrong. There seemed to be some thought shining in his mind, but Cheng Xiang didn't catch it.

Cheng Xiang walked towards Lin Shanghan, took a few steps, and was stunned again.

In Lin Shanghan's left hand, he grabbed a small sapling.

"You're not a local here, you're not familiar with this place, this is a place where two people come to plant trees together, I don't know how they came to be, anyway, it's not special, even the saplings have to go to the flower and bird market in front of you to buy them." Planting a tree represents two people being together forever like this tree. Hey, just such a broken thing costs 120 yuan, fortunately I have a lot of money, otherwise I wouldn't have to be embarrassed all over the ground. You don't know that it took me a lot of effort to get this sapling from the sapling seller...... Are you crying? ”

"You are sick," Cheng Xiang wiped his eyes, not daring to look at Lin Shanghan, "It's almost summer, what kind of trees to plant!" ”

"Ah, I just wanted to help you relieve the pressure." Lin Shanghan was a little worried that he was too straightforward to do this, and Cheng Xiang was difficult to accept.

Cheng Xiang didn't particularly want to cry, really, who knows why tears kept pouring out, as if they didn't want money.

Lin Shanghan had never seen the process so closely, and Xiang cried.

"Can you wait a while and then cry? The owner of the sapling seller said that he had to plant it before he could water it. ”

Cheng Xiang walked over, let his eyes be as red as rabbits, picked up a shovel with Lin Shanghan, found a spare place, and began to dig a pit.

After the tree was lowered and filled with soil, the two men erected three wooden sticks in the shape of an equilateral triangle next to the tree, and Lin Shanghan tied them to the tree with a rope he took from the sapling seller.

Cheng Xiang squatted beside the tree pit and watched Lin Shanghan pour the water in the bucket little by little.

"What kind of tree is this?" Cheng Xiang asked Lin Shanghan.

"I don't know." Lin Shanghan said with a grin.

Cheng Xiang sighed sullenly.

Water seeped into the land, and the moist skin glowed with black oil. Lin Shanghan threw down the bucket, clapped his hands, and said, "Let's go." ”

"That's it?"

"What else do you want to do? Why don't I dig another pit and bury you in it? Lin Shanghan turned his head with a smile and asked.

"This is the tree you planted, you have to make a mark!" Cheng Xiang was anxious, "Otherwise, how will I find it in the future!" ”

After Cheng Xiang finished speaking, he realized that what he said was a bit like that, and Lin Shanghan and Cheng Xiang both smiled a little awkwardly.

"Come on," Lin Shanghan looked indifferent, "It's not certain whether you can live or not, if you die, how sad you will be, it's better to leave it alone, come back in a few years and take a look, just pick the one that grows the most vigorously, and treat it as if it was planted by the two of us, how good!" ”

"Do you have children in the future, do you also run on the street, eighteen years later, pick one of the most handsome from the top students in the college entrance examination that year, point and say that this is your son, let the family provide for you for the elderly?!"

"Good idea!" Lin Shanghan laughed.

Lin Shanghan didn't care about going down the mountain. Cheng Xiang thought about it, picked a sharp stone on the ground, and carved it one by one on the trunk of a tree that was only three fingers wide at most.

The skin of the sapling was still very fragile, and Cheng Xiang left a deep mark with just a slight scratch.

If this tree dies in the future, it is 100% Cheng Xiang's responsibility.

But Cheng Xiang still bit his lip and carved four words on it vigorously.

"You can't go!" Lin Shanghan shouted at the bottom of the slope with a loud voice and shouted Cheng Xiang.

"Coming soon!"

Cheng Xiang put down the stones, ran two steps, and turned back.

The tree looked pitifully immature against the surrounding trees.

But it will survive, it will grow up, and it will wait until one of the next couple comes to the shade of its tree, and sees these five words that it has carved, and then understands that there were once two people like that who were related to this tree.

Lin Shanghan, Cheng Xiang.
