Chapter 2 Our friendship is as high as a mountain and as deep as the sea

You met a few people in the north or south, dropped a few flasks, and said a few times that you would never see them again.

I was in a southern city, in a university that was neither good nor bad, and I had earned it through my hard work.

I met people from all over the world, met a few confidants, got drunk a few pots of wine, and laughed crazy for more than a few years. Living a life that I never dared to look forward to, if the time could be so good, the corners of my mouth would rise in my dreams.

Since the accident at the beginning of the north, I have developed the habit of calling my mother every day, and now I and Beilu have left her side, leaving her alone in the small restaurant on the corner of the street, hanging old signs, cooking home-cooked dishes, waiting for someone to stop, looking forward to going home alone, but I can no longer look forward to the laughter in the house.

She always said that everything was fine at home, she would not be bored, there were many people who came to the restaurant to eat every day, and they were too busy to be busy, and the front foot just touched the ground and the back foot came, and even sometimes jokingly said that she was going to hire a waiter, but she didn't expect to be old and still enjoy the sense of being a big boss.

She laughed, as if all the stories were still the beginning of that beautiful beginning, as if all the accidents and all the suffering were just a vivid dream last night, and she would be fine when she woke up.

When we wake up, it's time to wake up and go to school, as if the glutinous rice balls we have made together in those years always think that after eating the glutinous rice balls during the New Year, the next year will still be so round and full, but I don't know that the taste of the glutinous rice balls will not change but the world is impermanent.

In fact, I don't know that she desperately said that she was very busy and busy, just to tell me that she was not alone, that she had no leisure time to think nonsense, that she had no extra energy to leave tears in her eyes, and that she did not have empty thoughts to miss those years.

But the more she spoke such unnatural words, the more it saddened me, and the more easily I could imagine her daily life, which was nothing more than sitting in a daze, and occasionally people came to see her sitting at the door, leaning against the railing, and her eyes were red with the wind.

Maybe look at the calendar every morning, and then accumulate some love, and when that day comes, you have to dry your tears and practice a bright smile before you go in.

When I couldn't go on with my voice choked, Cangnan would gently take my mobile phone and continue to chat with my mother, making her happy, most of the time it was about my troubles, and I was much more relaxed when I listened to their words, Cangnan winked at me mischievously while talking, and then unceremoniously continued to expose my embarrassment.

No wonder Lu Ersi always said that Cangnan was like a person who helped me wipe my buttocks, and carefully held the tissue every day, for fear that I would make a mistake. At that time, I was beaten up violently when she said this, but I still couldn't stop Xichen and Cai Qiang from laughing in agreement. Now that I think about it, maybe what she said is not unreasonable, but this sentence is also a little too vulgar, it really doesn't look like Lu Ersi, who looks like a super scholar, said it at all.

People can't look good, this sentence is especially prominent among the four heavenly kings in our dormitory, especially Lu Ersi's body is vividly embodied.

Lu Ersi's first impression is definitely that of a top student, she wears glasses with 800 degrees of myopia, her hair is thick and black, neatly and meticulously combed into a ponytail and hangs behind her. Wearing a simple white shirt and jeans, black canvas shoes with a little mud, and a round face that is not big but slightly baby fat.

The skin is naturally very smooth, like freshly made white tofu, but the freckles under the eyes are jumping. She was the last girl to arrive at the dormitory to report, and she was a little overwhelmed when she was standing at the door, Xichen and I hurried over to help her with her luggage, Cai Qiang exclaimed, "Haha, don't worry about failing the course this time, I like to have a scholar as a backer." ”

However, the truth is unexpected, we won't say whether she is a scholar or not, but this is indeed a woman with a poisonous tongue, and her wise words are that words are not disgusting and people will die.

Her three sentences are inseparable from the Achilles' heel that you can't refute, and can spread nausea into your hearing, your nerves, and even your mind. One of the things she has to scold every time is, "Go eat!" Then he went back and added, "It's for your own good that you eat, do you understand all kinds of medicine?" Don't think you're eating less. ”

Lu Ersi looks very aggressive, in fact, she is a little sensitive, she was born in a poor peasant family, life has not been smooth since she was a child, her mother is very gentle so she is often bullied by the villagers, and that's it, she has been scolding others since she was a child in order to protect her family, and she scolds others, regardless of whether the other party is a man or a woman or an old or a young person. That's why she scolds people like this, and she is like a hedgehog with a warm heart, she is actually a warm-hearted person, and she speaks with no malice.

She is the only one in the dormitory who can scold Cai Qiang for more than half an hour, Cai Qiang always quibbles that he is not admitting defeat, but he is disgusted by Ersi's words and can't continue.

Cai Qiang is a violent strong woman, to be exact, we still haven't figured out her gender orientation in mate selection, she often says that she has a crush on the dormitory next door or a girl thousands of miles away, and wants to pull us to help her check the gates.

I read it several times a day, but after a few days I didn't hear her say this person, and even once she told me about the first day of school, she thought Xichen was also very attractive, which really scared me.

But she went on to say that Xichen was a woman who had been injured at first glance, and a girl who was desperate for a man, and the last thing she dared to provoke in her life was such a dead-eyed girl.

"What about me, what about me? Doesn't it seem to be very attentive? I sighed Cai Qiang's insight into people, and couldn't wait to ask herself, she glanced at me and said helplessly, "You, at first glance, are a stupid woman, which will lower my IQ, but I'm quite interested in your cute little boyfriend." She patted me on the head and smiled evilly and said, "You have a snack, that little henchman is much smarter than you." ”

So she will be interested in girls for a while, and she will be a nymphomaniac for boys, and she can't figure out what she really thinks, and she said that she doesn't know it herself, and she doesn't know if it's nonsense, or if she really doesn't understand.

But there is no doubt about her righteousness to her friends, she is a person who can't tolerate sand in her eyes, once she happened to see Yindi deliberately fall down on the street and let Cangnan help her, Cai Qiang rushed up and pulled Yindi up with an arrow, and gave her a righteous indignant oral education, calming everyone present, and staring at her blankly No one made a sound.

I didn't see that scene, but I remember that day when Cai Qiang came back, he shook my head angrily and said to me, "Yin Beimo, you are stupid, can you fight for some anger, can you grow your own eyes and don't let me help you clean up the mess?" ”

As soon as I heard this, I knew that Cai Qiang must have encountered something, and he must be angry.

Because the first time she heard Xichen call me by my name, she accidentally heard it as "North Nose", and laughed at me for taking such a precious name, which was really unspeakable, and then she secretly entangled for a while and called me "North Nose" in a whisper.

Then we laughed collectively, and she just didn't want to admit that she had misheard, and said don't you think it's kind and creative? Then I got used to shouting and shouting, and only called my full name when I was angry.

"What's the matter, who is so bold and dares to provoke my Cai Ye, see if I don't teach her a good lesson." I hurriedly brought water to her, rolled up her sleeves and looked like she was going to rush out, she immediately snorted and was amused by me, a mouthful of water sprayed Lu Ersi's face, watching Ersi panic and anxious to jump off the wall was even happier, she told us the whole thing intermittently, and then sighed at me.

I was particularly moved and hugged her, "Master Cai, you are so good to me, the little woman has nothing to reciprocate, so let me repay you with my body." ”

", don't make me regret helping you out." She dodged it quickly, and with a blank look, I changed into a sportswear and went to the taekwondo club.

Cangnan said that since then, he has had a special sense of awe for Cai Qiang, and Yindi has been hiding away since he saw Cai Qiang.

It is said that most of the things in this world are one thing and one thing, and only Cai Qiang can control the sound of the voice, which can make her tremble, and when she sees it, it is like a mouse seeing a cat.

Cai Qiang's personality is as masculine as her name, she dresses neutrally, often wears sportswear or black clothes, neat short hair, and a huge stud ear on her left ear that shines in the sun, just like her shining youth.

Cai Qiang is also very domineering when she speaks, she never talks nonsense, no one can stop what she wants to do, and she will never hold back what she wants to say, in my impression her life is so careless and full of suspense.

On the first night of school, we went out to eat Malatang together, we drank a little wine, talked about our dreams, I said I wanted to be a reporter, specializing in exposing those corrupt and dark scenes, Cai Qiang grabbed my shoulders and said, "Then you go with me to practice taekwondo tomorrow, otherwise I won't stay as your bodyguard, don't let me hear that one day I don't know how you died." ”

"Yes, yes, most of them were hacked to death by people in the cave with knives, and then there will be big gaps all over the body, and then the surrounding insects, snakes, earthworms and unknown maggots will all crawl into your body, drink the blood and eat the meat." Els's flat, ethereal voice was so terrifying that the three of us stopped our chopsticks and imagined that we wouldn't be able to eat that scene at all.

Cai Qiang spread his hands helplessly, "Lu Ersi, you are such a god, I have to want to strangle you before I regurgitate." ”

Seeing that the three of us couldn't eat anymore, Lu Ersi asked us with an innocent face, "Why don't you all eat, are you all full?" Seeing that we all shook our heads, he immediately said happily, "Haha, then these are all mine, I like people with shallow stomachs like you." ”

Xichen smiled deliberately and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, let's save our appetite and wait to eat better." ”

On that day, the four of us had just entered the first day of school, and the young women walked all over the night market around the school, eating a lot of messy snacks, and finally the four of us were very uncomfortable, lying on the grass motionless, I still remember the sky full of stars that day, I still remember that there were four particularly bright stars directly above us, I pointed to the sky and sighed, "You look at those four stars like the four of us, I really hope that I can always sing about wine like this in the future, it's good to know you." ”

The slight evening breeze blew, and I suddenly felt a little sleepy, and I saw the full moon in a trance, and remembered the night many years ago, the face of the young man, the laughter, and the full moon that we said.

And the consequence of our hearty meal that night was collective diarrhea during military training the next day.

However, it just so happened that the instructor didn't believe us and thought that we were deliberately pretending to be sick to escape, so the four of us were punished for standing in a military posture for a morning just after entering college, and we couldn't help but run to the toilet halfway, so even the meal time was occupied.

Yindi just passed in front of us and didn't forget to tease us, "Oh, why are there four statues here, it really scares me." ”

Cai Qiang took advantage of the crowd to quietly stretch out her feet, Yindi almost fell a big heel, she glared at us fiercely and hurriedly walked away, Cai Qiang at that time had not taught her a lesson, so she was still very arrogant at that time, deliberately walking around in front of us, deliberately eating apples during the lunch break.

But as soon as Cangnan came, she immediately looked at us with a sympathetic look and gently helped us wipe our sweat.

At noon, the instructor generously gave us ten minutes to eat, and fortunately, Cangnan had already ordered takeout for us and bought antidiarrheal medicine.

However, his major was not the same as mine, so he had to go back to his class, and when he left, his brows furrowed into a figure-eight brow, and he reminded me that if I couldn't get through, I should tell the instructor well, don't hold on.

"Don't worry, I'm very happy, even if it's punished, everyone will be fine together." I smiled at him and said that this time it was not to reassure him, not to comfort him, but really from my heart.

With friends around you who can go crazy and make trouble together, it becomes easy to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire.

"That's right, Cangnan, go quickly, I'm still here." Xi Chen smiled beside him and pushed him away, "We only have ten minutes to eat, can you eat well if you are grinding and chirping like this, do you want her to continue to be hungry in the afternoon?"

As soon as he heard this, Cangnan ran away in a smoke, and when he was halfway there, he didn't forget to turn around and shout at me, "You eat well, don't be hungry." ”

Although the first day of military training was uncomfortable and tossed for a day and was targeted by the instructor, but with friends by their side, hard work can also become fun, and they must think the same way.

A good friend is a fortress in the heart, a warm reliance, and a laughing companion.

May I carry the old wine in ten years, and may you still be friends in ten years.

After standing upright for a day, the four of us walked with a limp, Cangnan bought a potion to help me rub my sore ankles, and his cautious expression moved my heart, as if I was treating a treasure.

I leaned down and kissed him lightly on the forehead, if time could stand still, could it take root in my heart, let me always remember such a tender moment.

Cangnan was stunned for a moment, raised his head and smiled happily at me, like a child who had eaten honey, sitting next to me and approaching my face, the wind blew into my dream, you rode the wind at night, this gaze is familiar and strange, this kiss seems to disturb my soul for a lifetime.

You ride the wind, I have fallen all my life, not stopping for the mountains and rivers, just to kiss you and bow your head.

Probably people are selfish, and when they are happy, they forget everything around them, just like they forget those who are not lucky enough, and forget those who are full of entanglements. I'm the same, my heart is too small, and I forget to grieve for you when I put on happiness.

In the evening, Beilu called me and asked me if everything was okay, I smiled and said that it was all good, but I didn't have time to see him, and the military training took half a month, and it was estimated that this period of time would be very busy and hard.

Beilu's voice on the phone was a little pale, he said that he has been very busy recently, said that the business in the car dealership has been very good recently, said that he has probably negotiated several big deals recently, and said that his performance is the highest in the whole company.

Although he was always talking to me with good news, talking about topics that made me happy and comforted him, he never said how lonely it was to be alone in the middle of this big city, how hard it was to practice smiling and practicing speaking every day, and how hard it was to face difficult customers and all kinds of people.

He never said it, and he couldn't let go of his unacceptability, those heavy pasts, I know that he still has them in his heart, hidden in his mind, and integrated into his bone marrow.

Half a year ago, Beilu gave up the college entrance examination, gave up studying, and came to this city with no relatives and friends alone with a few hundred yuan to work hard.

But he has always been so strong and forbearing, as if he can bear anything, as if nothing can make him cry bitterly, only that time, I think it is only that time.

Every time he was on the other end of the phone, he smiled and told me to study hard, take care of myself, don't hold on when I have no money, tell him, wear more clothes when it's cold, and don't freeze myself.

He never said that it was cold, and he was reluctant to add a few clothes. If there is no one who is ashamed of living all these years, he is the first, if you say who fate is the most unfair, he must be among them, this distressing teenager, always makes me not know how to comfort, how to reduce some of the burden for him.

"It's just that there is still no news from Beichu." He said it softly, but I still heard it clearly.

"Brother, don't worry, she will definitely come back at the beginning of the North Season, she must be living a good life." I don't know what to say, it's a topic heavy enough to crush us, and I don't know what else to do but believe.
