Chapter 128: "When the Catalpa Tree Blooms Next Year (2)"
"Hey, do you see this tall building? In the past, this place was the place where the big tree used to be. ”
Yi Zhen pointed to the tall building in front of him and said to Lin Zi.
"It's a pity, I took a look at your community, there are so few green plants, I feel like they have become high-rise buildings."
Lin Zi sighed.
"Yes, you know, this tree used to be very tall, I liked to sit on the branches when I was a child, looking into the distance, because it was very high, so I could see it very clearly, but it's a pity now, alas."
Yi Zhen couldn't help but sigh.
"Ah, why don't we plant another tree."
Lin Zi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said to Yi Zhen.
"Re?"
Yi Zhen looked at Lin Zi with a puzzled expression and asked.
"Yes, you should be able to plant trees in your community."
"Yes, yes, but, where are you going to plant it?"
Yi Zhen looked around and said to Lin Zi.
"I've already seen this just now, you come with me."
Yi Zhen followed Lin Zi back with a suspicious face.
"Look, isn't there a clearing here?"
Lin Zi pointed to a vacant lot under the balcony of Yi Zhen's house and said.
"And what kind of tree are you going to plant?"
Yi Zhen looked at Lin Zi and asked.
"Hee-hee, secret."
Lin Zi said mysteriously to Yi Zhen.
"You're a mystery, but now there's a question, where are we going to buy tree seeds?"
Yi Zhen looked at Lin Zi with a smile and said.
"Aren't there any greenery shops around here?"
"There's been a lot of it around here, and I don't know the specifics, so let's take a look at it while we walk, and by the way, I'll take you to see the school I've been studying since I was a child."
"Okay."
"Then let's go."
As he spoke, Yi Zhen smiled and stretched out his hand to Lin Zi, Lin Zi put his hand on it, and the two walked out hand in hand.
"Look, this is the kindergarten I went to when I was a child, and it hasn't changed after so many years."
Yi Zhen looked at the kindergarten next to him when he was a child and sighed.
"Look at this slide, I used to fight with other kids on the slide."
Yi Zhen pointed to the slide opposite.
"When you were a kid, did you like to fight with people?"
Lin Zi said to Yi Zhen with a smile.
"Why do you ask?"
Yi Zhen was a little surprised to hear Lin Zi say this.
"When I was at your house just now, my aunt told me that you often fought with people when you were a child, so you don't have any friends in the school in the community."
"Why does my mom tell you everything?"
Yi Zhen couldn't help but smile and said.
"However," Lin Zi jumped in front of Yi Zhen, clasped his hands in front of his chest, stared at Yi Zhen and asked, "However, I still want to know why you liked to fight with others so much when you were a child, you shouldn't have violent tendencies." ”
Lin Zi pretended to be frightened and took a few steps back.
"What are you thinking, but don't worry, even if I have violent tendencies, I won't treat you, I pity you very much."
Yi Zhen approached Lin Zi and said with a malicious expression.
"Hey, then tell me, why did you like to fight with people so much when you were a child?"
"Why are you so simple, think about it, how can a child like to fight with others for no reason."
Yi Zhen looked at Lin Zi and smiled.
"No, my former friends like to fight with others and pretend to be the boss."
Lin Zi said to Yi Zhen with a serious face.
"Unexpectedly, you're still a little bully."
"Damn, I'm just following people's butts. Don't get off the hook, tell me why you fought with them when you were a child. ”
"When I was a child, my dad died very early, my mom worked hard to bring me up alone, my mom, usually very busy, every time it comes to school, other children will always have a father or mother, at least one parent will pick up, but I don't, I can only go to school alone, and then go home from school alone, over time, everyone will laugh at me for not having a father, so every time they laugh at me for not having a father, I am very angry, so I fight with them."
"I see, I'm sorry."
When Lin Zi heard Yi Zhen say this, he felt very guilty in his heart, and asked him to uncover the scars of the past.
"Fool, why are you apologizing, after so much time, I have long been relieved."
Yi Zhen shrugged and said with a smile at Lin Zi.
"Then why didn't you tell Auntie about these things, Auntie has always thought that you are a child who is not worry-free and can only be naughty."
Yi Zhen took a deep breath and said, "Tell my mother about these things, and my mother will only feel more sad and guilty." It's not easy for my mom to take me alone, so why should I make my mom even more distressed? ”
"You're so young, you're so sensible, compared to you, I feel that when I was young, I only knew how to play, and I didn't understand anything."
"Isn't it good for a child to be carefree? Every age has its own thoughts. However, if you can, I hope you can go on like this carefree forever and let me protect you. ”
Yi Zhen looked at Lin Zi with a doting face and said.
"When you were a child, did you have any friends?"
Lin Zi looked at Yi Zhen and asked.
"Friends? Come to think of it, it seems that there really is one, but only for a short time. ”
"In a short time?"
Lin Zi looked at Yi Zhen puzzled and asked.
"Actually, I haven't told you that when we first met, I felt that you were very much like a little girl I knew when I was a child, she was the same as you, she likes to talk non-stop, especially enthusiastic, especially active, she was my first friend when I was a child, oh, it was in this kindergarten that I met her for the first time."
"And what about later? Why do you say it's short? ”
"Because later, she was taken out of the country by her parents, and we never contacted each other again."
"How did you become friends?"
Lin Zi asked Yi Zhen very curiously.
Since they got together, Lin Zi began to slowly discover that she didn't know Yi Zhen before, and what she thought she knew was just the side that Yi Zhen wanted others to see. Therefore, now for Yi Zhen's past, Lin Zi wants to know very much.
"At that time, because I didn't have a father, I didn't like to talk, I didn't like to socialize with others, and my friends around me liked to laugh at me, so I fought with them, and over time, I had no friends. She was new to me, she would come up to me and ask me why I didn't talk, she would keep talking to me, even though I didn't want to pay attention to her at the time, but she didn't care at all, she would keep talking to me. ”
"Tut, I didn't expect you to be so cold when you were a child, and the little girls took the initiative to chat with you, and you still love to ignore it."
Lin Zi pretended to shake his head with emotion and said to Yi Zhen.
"I was really autistic when I was a kid and didn't like to talk to people at all, but that girl was really persistent and kept talking to me, just like when I first met you, and you kept talking to me all the time."
Yi Zhen thought of the scene of Lin Zi's mouth not stopping all the time when he met for the first time, and couldn't help laughing.
"Cut, you might as well just say I'm nagging."
Lin Zi pretended to be angry and didn't overdo it.
"No, I just think, it's good that you can take the initiative to talk to me, and I will know you."
Yi Zhen looked at Lin Zi and smiled.
"No, wait, you just said I resemble the little girl you remember?"
Lin Zi suddenly remembered something and said to Yi Zhen.
"That's right."
Yi Zhen didn't feel the pit that Lin Zi dug for himself at all, and nodded and said.
"So, the reason why you want to be friends with me is because I'm like her?"
Lin Zi pretended to be angry and looked at Yi Zhen and said.
"No, no, I didn't mean that, you're you, she's her, don't get me wrong."
Yi Zhen suddenly became a little nervous, and when he was nervous, his mouth couldn't keep up with his thoughts.
Seeing that Yi Zhen was sweating and stammering to explain, Lin Zi couldn't hold back and laughed directly.
"Okay, teasing you, go on, later, how can she melt your Xiaoice Mountain and become your only friend at that time?"
"Really?"
Yi Zhen said in disbelief.
"Really, of course it's true, don't interrupt yet, keep talking."
"Later, it was also because she stood up for me at that time."
"Coming out?"
Hearing Yi Zhen say this, Lin Zi became even more curious.
"I wanted to beat him because I was laughed at for not having a father, but the little girl stood up for me and taught the boy a lesson. I didn't expect that such a thin little girl would be fearless in the face of a boy half a head taller than her, and directly bit the boy's hand with her mouth, and directly bit the boy and cried. So later, I was actually very grateful to her, and slowly, I began to be willing to talk to her and treat her as a friend, but later, she went abroad. ”
"That's a pity, did you want to go to her later?"
Lin Zi looked at Yi Zhen and asked.
Yi Zhen shook his head and said with a smile: "I thought about it, but I didn't get in touch, not to mention, after so many years, I think she should have a new life and new friends." ”
"Do you feel sorry then?"
Yi Zhen suddenly laughed and said to Lin Zi: "Well, how do I feel a sour taste." ”
"What's the matter, I'm just just out of curiosity, I just want to ask you, don't think too much."
"Well, I think it's a pity."
Yi Zhen shook his head in disappointment and said.
"Hey, answer my question."
"You're asking if I feel sorry? I said no, would you believe it? ”
Yi Zhen looked at Lin Zi and said.
"I really don't regret it?"
Lin Zi came to Yi Zhen's front and stared at Yi Zhen's eyes tightly and said.
"I'm not sorry."
Yi Zhen said seriously to Lin Zi.
"Why?"
"Because," Yi Zhen paused, raised his hand holding Lin Zi, smiled at Lin Zi and said, "I have you now, I am not only my trusted friend, but also the person I love, I am very satisfied now, so I won't feel sorry at all." ”
"You know how to coax me."
Lin Zi held back the smile in his heart, deliberately didn't look at Yi Zhen, and didn't look over.
"I mean really."
"Ah, let's go ahead and have a look, we're not here to find the green plant shop, don't forget the business, let's go."
Lin Zi deliberately put aside the topic and pulled Yi Zhen forward.
Yi Zhen followed behind Lin Zi and smiled helplessly.
The two of them walked along the path, and the sunlight shone through the green shade and fell on the ground, dappled and dappled.
At the same time, the reflection of the two walking forward side by side is very long.
