There was light at the end of the forest, and I could already see a young man sitting at a desk, concentrating on drawing candy men.

The desk was held on a foam shelf filled with candy figures of various shapes, yellow and shimmering in the sun wrapped in thin plastic paper.

In addition to the zodiac accidents, the most is Peppa Pig.

I asked, "Boss, how much does your sugar man cost?" ”

The boss has another Peppa Pig in his hand who has not yet finished, his hands are not shaking, and his head is not raised: "Ten dollars a piece, which one do you like." ”

In the distance, there are also candy gourds and all kinds of balloon puppy toys, and I don't know how to sneak into the campus.

It's like a food and culture festival square.

I retracted my gaze and asked, "Boss, can you help me draw a word?" ”

"What do you want to draw?" The boss's voice sounded impatient.

"It's to write a 'morning' with a pen."

"Chen? Which Chen? The boss finally drew Peppa Pig and carefully glued the stick.

"Morning light." As I spoke, I scratched it on the palm of my hand to show him.

"Wait a minute." In the last step, the boss used a knife to cut the plastic paper, put the already formed Peppa Pig candy man in it, flattened and glued it into the plastic foam, and then had time to take care of me.

"Which Chen? Morning light? ”

"Yes, yes, yes." I suicidal call.

The boss of the sugar man picked up the rag on the table and wiped the iron plate that had just been made as a sugar man, the oil was shiny, and the cloth was as clean as new.

The boss didn't say whether it would be done or not, and took the iron spoon to scoop the sugar and gestured on the board for a long time.

"You're a little hard to draw." Now no one comes to buy the candy man, and the boss is willing to give it a try for me.

"Can I draw?"

As if drawing a rough shape, the boss's spoon dipped in the syrup, and the amount of sugar was measured: "You can't blame me for the bad drawing." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." I'm full of promises.

In the distance, the boss and roommate A, who had just bought a large string of balloons, ran over.

"What are you doing?" The boss ran up to me and asked.

I pointed to the word "morning" drawn by the boss with my eyes, and the boss followed my gaze and looked sideways at the boss.

The boss is concentrating on sketching.

In fact, sugar painting is very fast, because the syrup can condense immediately as soon as it is dipped on the board, and the movements of the hands must not hesitate.

Coherent.

Withdrew the spoon and spun around the board, to contain the syrup.

The sugar man's cursive must be very good, I watched the wooden stick stick glued diagonally, the little shovel pressed it, and Senior Brother Xiao Chen's "Chen" had been finalized.

I opened the plastic opening, stuffed the sugar in, and handed it to me flat.

"How much does the boss cost?"

"Ten bucks."

Ten yuan, a yellow and clear morning.

I was afraid that it would melt in my hand, so I hurriedly looked for my senior brother.

But the boss asked me first: "One, have you seen us helping the class?" ”

I was shocked and scanned my eyes around: "Where is it?" ”

"I didn't see it, I asked if you found it!" The boss was anxious and angry.

"Nope." I said, "Why don't you ask the people in our class, aren't they going?" We'll just ask someone. ”

Talking like this, I always feel that something is weird, like something is missing.

"Where's the third child?" The Boss was the first to notice.

"The third child is lost." I was stunned and didn't find her after a few rounds, she was still there just now, why did she disappear in a blink of an eye.

There were too many people in the open space, and there was a class of people who had just come down to take pictures, and I didn't know if there were any senior brothers and sisters I was looking for, so I was at a loss.

"Give her a call." The boss said urgently.

I let out a long "oh" and was dialing roommate A's phone, which rang for a long time and no one answered.

"Isn't it too noisy for her to hear?" I hung up and tried to dial another one

……

Still no one answered.

At this moment, Senior Brother Xiao Chen posted on Moments, and it was a lively photo shoot.

It was accompanied by the text: "Friends who want to come can come." ”

I added three exclamation points at the bottom to express my shouting: "Senior brother, where are you!" ”

"Why are you here, you haven't found a helper yet?"

Beside him, a familiar voice came over.

It was friend P, who came up empty-handed, saw me, and smiled kindly.

Seeing my friend P, it's like seeing a relative, and I almost want to cry and complain about why you came.

"Did you see the assistant class? Where is he? ”

Friend P shrugged: "Do I want to take you over, but there are many people there there, and they may not have the hands to pick up your things." ”

"Yes! Definitely! ”

I thought that my friend P said that he didn't take the gift because there were too many gifts to take.

When I went to take a look, I realized that it was this method of not being able to receive gifts-

After taking a group photo, the assistant class is now a waste class.

I had no love to let my good brother wrap the tape around the tree, unable to move, with the outrageous aunt red lipstick on his lips, and he had no strength to laugh, allowing the circle of boys around him to play tricks.

I was nervous and suspected that Senior Brother Xiao Chen was also like this, so I hurriedly sent him a text message.

"Senior brother, senior brother, are you still alive? Alive, isn't it? ”

After a while, Senior Brother Xiao Chen replied to me: "It should be ......"

I breathed a sigh of relief: I can still type, and it should be fine.

He asked again: "Senior brother, have you finished taking a group photo?" We're going to you, we're under the school building sign. ”

"Look back." Senior brother replied.

Behind me, it was a banner that read: "Congratulations to Comrade Xiaochen on successfully being single for 22 years!" ”

White characters on a red background, big dazzling.

Behind the banner, the brothers cleared out a background, and put Senior Brother Xiao Chen alone behind the banner, Senior Brother Xiao Chen held a bear in his left hand and a flower in his right hand, dressed in a black bachelor's uniform, with a lovely smile.

The "photographer" in front saw that the banner was pulled up, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone to take pictures.

Senior Brother Xiaochen's popularity is super good, and the people who come almost include the high-level cadres of various clubs in the school.

Of course, there is also a good brother A Jiu of the senior brother.

Ah Jiu stood on tiptoe and carefully folded the new flowers that were about to form a wreath on his brother's Bachelor of Science hat.

It's all red roses!

I also took out my phone and secretly took a picture and saved it in the album.

Senior Brother Xiao Chen let them fiddle, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

I waved at him, and my brother saw it, and with a slight forehead, I ran over again.

There were so many people that I couldn't interject and couldn't say what it would feel like.

I probably thought it was very lively, and I never thought that my brother would have a day when he couldn't take me to play badminton.

"Senior brother has been single for 22 years!" I just joked with the banner.

"Yes, do you want to fulfill my wish to get off the list before graduation?" Senior Brother Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"Where can I get you one?"

When the senior brother heard this, he smiled, didn't answer me, and said, "I'll put the things in my parents' car first, and then I'll invite you to dinner." ”

I nodded, "Okay." ”

"Eh, wait, brother!" I almost forgot, and hurriedly handed him the candy in my hand: "For you." ”

"Oh." The senior brother took it: "Thank you, thank you." ”

The assistant class also had a graduation banquet, and I collided with Senior Brother Xiaochen's graduation banquet, and I was in a dilemma, so I chose to go to Senior Brother Xiaochen's graduation banquet.

There are many people, and it is lively, but I can't interject, I think, and I'm not in a hurry at this time, anyway, the senior brother didn't leave the school so soon, so it's better to talk about it later.

But I didn't expect to make another appointment, what I was waiting for was Senior Brother Xiao Chen's sentence-

"We'll see you soon."
