Chapter 278

Gently raising the umbrella, Xia Solstice looked up, at the intersection of the old street, there is a very old jujube tree, so old that it only blooms and does not bear fruit, I don't know when, who planted it, and how many years have passed, and how many wind and rain have been experienced with this old street.

Xia Zhi's home lives on the opposite side of this old street, which is a very prosperous residential and commercial coexistence area, which does not match the style of the old city market at all. Since the departure of the previous county magistrate, the current leadership team has focused on the development of the north of the city, and the old city in the south of the city has also been shelved.

The streets of the old city are very old, they are buildings from decades ago, blue bricks and black tiles, in this small county town that is neither south nor north, not inland nor by the sea, watching the people who come and go on the streets slowly grow old, watching the original people gradually gray hair, having sons, sons and sons, and the streets are still filled with adults and children running around.

Until twelve years ago.

Twelve years ago, when Xia Zhi's family moved out of the old street, it was the beginning of the urban transformation, the county seat was demolished and rebuilt, the blue brick road became an asphalt road, and the black roof became a few floors that could not be seen.

The old street gradually fell into disarray.

However, the summer solstice still often comes to this side of the old street.

Because in Lao Cai, there is a feeling he likes, an atmosphere he likes, and a jujube tree that he likes.

Gently caressing the rough skin on the trunk of the tree that has become wet due to dripping, the ground is already full of jujube flowers mixed with muddy water, and the green and tender colors are wafting in the mud and ticking, just like this life.

Recalling the days when I lived in the old street, the jujube tree would still bear dates, and at that time, the children of several families would take bamboo poles and beat dates under the tree, and of course the summer solstice was also in it, and I never thought about what the jujube tree would look like when it bloomed.

Until that day fourteen years ago.

Fourteen years ago, Xiaoman, it was still raining like this, and after the summer solstice separated from the friends who usually played together from the alley, he turned around and saw the falling flowers all over the ground, and the desolation all over the ground.

As he hurried home, a thunderclap flashed through the sky.

"Hey! What are you doing? ”

Xia Zhi's thoughts were interrupted, his heart was suddenly empty, and with a sigh, he turned his head and saw a face with rain on dates.

Moved the umbrella halfway forward. Xia Zhi smiled: "Just look, what are you doing?" Open-air showers? ”

The other party ignored his boring joke and pouted, "Who are you, why haven't I seen you in Lao Cai?" ”

Xia Zhi was stunned, this girl is a resident of Lao Cai? I've never seen her in the old street, but after thinking about it for a while, I'm relieved, since I went to college, I can only come to the old street during the holidays, and when I come, I don't go to the old man's house to stay for a while, and the time on the street is only a few minutes.

"I live in the neighborhood across the street to see a friend."

The girl glared at him, staggered him to the old tree and looked up at the canopy, making the summer solstice inexplicable, but he couldn't watch a girl get wet here and he walked away by himself, so he had to follow her.

The girl just watched, and the raindrops were blown by the wind and fell on her bare forehead, sliding down the strands of hair that had become wet, and she ignored them.

Xia Zhi just looked at her white face, her long black hair was combed back, and her thin bangs were attached to the corners of her forehead, just when Xia Zhi was fascinated, the girl turned her head sharply and said to him viciously: "It must be something you did!" This tree has never dropped so many flowers! ”

Xia Zhi smiled: "How do you know that it hasn't been?" ”

When the girl was asked by him, her face turned red, and she said forcefully: "I... I just know anyway! ”

Xia Zhi looked at her stubborn expression and was helpless, so she had to say: "Okay, don't talk about it here, the old tree is only falling off flowers because the wind and rain are particularly strong this year, and there will be more rain after watching the sky, where is your home?" I'll send you back. ”

The girl looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Really?" ”

"Hurry up, when the heavy rain comes, the old street is so flooded, I still have to go home!"

"Oh ... ..."

... ...

"Hello? Mom, it's flooding here in the old street, I have to wait a while to go back... Well...... At a friend's house... Well, don't worry... Well, bye..."

Putting down the phone, looking at the stagnant water and crazy rain outside the doorshed, Xia Zhi turned back to the innocent girl and said, "I still can't go back, eh?" Are you the only one in your family? ”

The girl opened the lock, pushed open the door and said, "Who said this is my family?" Saying that, he walked in the door: "Most of the old streets have been rented out, and I rented them here." ”

"Hmm... So you've only been here in the past two years, right? Xia Zhi followed her into the house, looked at the dim environment in the house, and said casually.

"How do you know?"

"Because I haven't been here often in the past two years, I know all the previous residents."

"Really?"

Xia Zhi smiled: "You are so young, why are you so suspicious, you don't believe what I say." ”

"Cut!" The girl was embarrassed, blushed, and said, "It's like... It's like how old you are..."

Seeing her like this, Xia Zhi knew that she was thin-skinned and couldn't joke, so he asked, "My name is Xia Zhi, what about you?" ”

The girl's face turned even redder and she stumbled and couldn't speak.

Xia Zhi wondered and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The girl gave him a blank look, blushed and lowered her head and whispered, "I... My name is...... Xiaoman..."

"Huh?"

Two

Taking off a pair of shoes and pouring out the stagnant water in the shoes, Xia Zhi leaned against the door and gasped, thinking of the way he ran away just now, he was a little ashamed, because the atmosphere was too ambiguous, he couldn't stand the heavy rain and waded through the stagnant water on the street to run home, this kind of thing can't be known to others for a lifetime.

"Summer Solstice, are you back?" Gu Yu's voice sounded in the door.

Xia Zhi opened the door with his dripping shoes, and walked in weakly: "Well, I'm back..."

Gu Yu came out of the kitchen and was startled when he saw him like this: "What's the matter, why is it like this?" As he spoke, he pulled a towel from the bathroom and handed it over.

Xia Zhi took the towel and wiped his wet hair a few times, and shook his head: "It's nothing, I don't want to stay over there, I just want to come back quickly." ”

"What are you doing in such a hurry, hurry up and take a shower, don't catch a cold."

"Hmm." Xia Zhi took off his coat and threw it on the ground, and walked to the bathroom, Gu Yu followed behind in a plain apron, and said as he walked: "Today's lunch is your favorite dish, and when you finish washing, it will probably be done." ”

Xia Zhi looked back and smiled: "Mom, you weren't like this before. ”

Gu Yu joked: "Mom is also old, what's the matter?" Think I'm nagging? ”

"Where, how can there be, Mom, you are still young, how can you be old?"

Gu Yu picked up the spoon he had just put down from the dining table: "How can people be immortal, you will say these nice things, just like your father." ”

Xia Zhi smiled without saying a word, closed the door, and remembered the squeak of stir-fry outside the door.

Soaking in the warm water, Xia Zhi closed her eyes, and couldn't help but think of Xiao Man, she was also soaked in the rain, is there a bathroom on the side she rents? If you don't, you'll have to get under the covers and spend some time.

Shaking his head, Xia Zhi waved Xiao Man's cheeks with rain from his mind, and remembered the old tree in the old street, the old tree has fallen very badly this year, I don't know how much will be left after such a heavy rain, but he wants to see the old tree full of green and yellow branches.

Thinking of the old tree falling flowers, I can't help but think of my father.

Xia Zhi's father is called Summer, he is tall and burly, when Xia Zhi was young, he opened a mechanical repair shop on the old street, and then...

He's dead.

Fourteen years ago, when the summer solstice walked back to the old house in the old street from the old tree with the wind and rain and falling flowers...

Taking a deep breath, Xia Zhi got up from the water, dried himself casually, put on his pajamas and walked out.

Gu Yu was sending the plates full of steaming stir-fry from the kitchen to the dining room one by one, Xia Zhi reached out and took the two plates in her hand, Gu Yu was surprised: "So fast? ”

"Well, just soak it."

Gu Yu looked at Xia Zhi's back and wondered, why did he look so in such a bad mood? Aren't you happy every time you come back from Lao Cai?

Xia Zhi put down the two plates, turned around and saw Gu Yu's curious eyes, and sneered: "The rain is very heavy, and the flowers of the old trees have fallen, so I'm just a little worried." ”

"Really?" Of course, Gu Yu didn't believe that Xia Zhi would be worried about such a thing, but he didn't want to say that he couldn't chase after him, so he turned around and continued to serve food.

Xia Zhi opened the cupboard and took out two pieces of chopsticks and placed them on both sides of the table, served the rice cooker from the other side, filled two bowls of rice, sat on the side by the window, waited for Gu Yu to come out and put the last plate on the table, took off his apron, washed his hands and sat down, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

The dinner table of the Xia family is very quiet, because no one is allowed to talk at the dinner table in the summer solstice when the summer solstice is small, even if the atmosphere at home is usually very cheerful, the summer will accompany the summer solstice to mess around, but the rules are still rules after all, so since the summer died, the summer solstice is silent no matter when and where to eat.

Sometimes Gu Yu will look up at his son, his face that does not smile or speak, there will be a silent solemnity, which is a very charming gesture, but I don't know why it has been two years since he went to college, and he has not found a girlfriend yet.

This is a headache for Gu Yu, she thinks that in the current society, young people should feel the joy of youth in a good time, otherwise when they enter the society like themselves and start worrying about their livelihood, they can only find a reliable person to marry, although they are still very happy, but finally they still don't know what it feels like to be in love.

However, he vaguely talked to Xia Zhi a few times, but he jokingly prevaricated, so he had to leave it alone.

After eating a meal in silence, Xia Zhi cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and went into the kitchen to wash the dishes, Gu Yu began to put Xia Zhi's rain-soaked clothes and shoes into the basin and soak them with laundry detergent, because the air here is not very good, I am afraid that the rain will contain pollutants in the sky, so you have to wash it well.

In the home of two people, it was so plain that half a day passed, the rain outside the window gradually stopped, and when the clouds dispersed, the sunset shone on the wall of the summer solstice bedroom, which was so beautiful that it was shaking like a dream.

Xia Zhi lay on the bed and looked at the light and shadow on the wall, not knowing what he was thinking.

Gu Yu walked by the door, just saw Xia Solstice like this, startled, when Xia Solstice was at home in the past, he either went out for a walk or read books and played games at home, when did he have this now?

If you think about it carefully, you have a little expectation in the bottom of your heart, could it be my summer solstice...

Finally Sichun?

Three

Xia Zhi didn't expect that the second time he saw Xiaoman was here.

Most of the people living in the new city near Lao Cai are people who have moved out of Lao Cai after their lives have improved, and the old houses in Lao Cai have been waiting for demolition for ten years without success, and they have also begun to rent them to rural people and outsiders who have gone to the city to work, and of course, there are also high school students like Xiaoman who live in Lao Cai because they want to be cheap.

The place where the old street and the new street meet is the place where the laid-off hawkers gather, every morning and evening, there will be a lot of vendors selling vegetables, fruits and cooked food gathered next to the abandoned construction site, the chengguan has never been in charge, the people of the old street and the new city will step on the morning glow and sunset to come here to buy vegetables, each need.

Sometimes the summer solstice will also help Gu Yu come here to buy things.

It just so happened that the previous fox friends and dog friends did not come to call friends and invite companions, and the trivial things on the Internet did not come out of the new, and when I was bored, Xia Solstice put on a dress and went out, and came here to go around.

Although the ground was full of fallen and rotten leaves and fruits, and even the stagnant water from the previous days was still accumulating in the low-lying areas of the damaged old road, floating with the color of gasoline and broken eggs, there was a lingering smell of rot in the air, but Xia Solstice didn't care.

It can also be said that everyone who remembers the life of the old street will not care about these things, in the old street, many times there will be even more serious smells than these smells floating, even if today's life is comfortable and dull, no one has ever forgotten the original time.

The place where Xia Solstice saw Xiaoman was this messy place.

At this time, Xiao Man was wearing dirty old clothes and a stained apron, following a middle-aged couple busy working among fruits and vegetables.

The middle-aged couple Xia Zhi knew each other, and they were also one of the old neighbors in Lao Cai, who had a son who worked outside, but they didn't hear that there were other people in their family.

Xia Zhi slowly paced to the vegetable stall, the man raised his eyes and saw that it was him, hung a look, lowered his head and glanced to the side again, his face full of impatience and disgust.

Xia Solstice is not strange, but when Xiao Man saw that Xia Solstice was coming, he still wanted to say hello or something, and saw that the woman also had the same expression, looking at Xia Solstice with disdain, and doubts arose in his heart.

Xia Zhi looked up and saw that Xiao Man, as always, couldn't hide the little face in his heart, looking at the strange atmosphere between himself and the middle-aged couple with doubts, he laughed, put down the cabbage in his hand and smiled lightly at her, turned around and left.

Xiao Man's eyes followed the summer solstice, and found that many people looked at him with the same strange eyes, and his heart became more and more curious, and at this time the man's voice remembered: "Xiao Man, what are you doing in a daze?" It's time to settle the score! ”

Xiaoman was taken aback, hurriedly took the plastic bag in the man's hand, began to settle accounts for the guests, and sent the guests away, she sorted out the money and put it in the money bag, pretending to be casual and asked: "Third uncle, who was that person just now, why do you look at him so much?" ”

The man made a tiger face: "Why do you ask so much?" ”

After saying that, he turned around and went to take care of the vegetable stall.

Xiao Man pouted and complained softly, but he had always known that his third uncle had a bad temper, so he didn't touch his moldy head, but the third aunt pulled her over and whispered to her: "Everyone in Lao Cai knows that the child is almost inseparable, either there is something wrong or his character is not good, and he has to walk around when he sees him in the future, do you know?" ”

"Huh? Something is wrong? Don't you see? ”

"When his father died, he didn't even cry, he stood alone at the door of the house and laughed, isn't there something wrong with this kind of person? His dad was so kind to him when he was alive, it's..."

The third aunt said and walked away, leaving Xiaoman very entangled thinking: Didn't you see that he was this kind of person?

"What do you think! It's over! ”

Xiao Man woke up: "Hey! Got it! ”

The summer solstice walks very slowly, very steadily, like the setting of the sunset, with grace and ethereal, it seems natural and leisurely, but slowly, imperceptibly, it comes to an end, there is an illusion of trance.

Xia Zhi looked at the door in front of him, suddenly didn't want to go in, thought about it for a while, the sunlight in the corridor quickly disappeared, Xia Zhi sighed, turned around, and just took two steps, but the door opened.

Gu Yu came out of it.

Xia Zhi turned around: "Mom, go out?" ”

"Why are you going? Don't go home? ”

"Hmm... I don't have much to do when I think about going back, it's like walking again. ”

"Oh......"Gu Yu came out, closed the door and walked to Xia Zhi's side: "Then accompany me to the supermarket, and by the way, see what you want to buy?" ”

Xia Zhi walked beside Gu Yu in addition to the corridor, chuckling: "What do I want to buy?" Nothing is missing. ”

"Then buy something you want to eat?"

Xia Zhi shook his head: "Our family is not so wealthy, let's save it, anyway, I don't want anything, but you, Mom, you are still so young, don't work all day, make money or something, why don't you find me a stepfather?" ”

Gu Yu sneered and laughed: "What are you talking nonsense? Others don't know, don't you know yet? ”

Xia Zhi just smiled and didn't answer, the two of them just walked forward, quietly, slowly, one tall, one thin, the street lamp shone down, the picture was very beautiful, I didn't know and thought it was a couple.

Xiao Man looked at the backs of Xia Zhi and Gu Yu strangely at the exit of an alley, just now he clearly heard Xia Zhi calling the female "Mom", but would his mother be so young?

Looking up again, the eyes of the people walking by next to me, the look in that look, and the pointing, the little girl was embarrassed and uninterested.

Strange guys.

Four

"Oh, you said he?" The third aunt sewed the thread in the pinhole against the lamp and began to sew an old dress: "Xia Zhi is the child of the old Xia family in the old street, you played with him when you were young, don't you remember?" ”

"Huh? Is it? I...... I don't remember. Xiao Satisfied, I didn't expect the two of them to know each other for a long time: "Then why is he disliked by so many people now?" ”

"So many people?" The third aunt said disdainfully: "Who doesn't know about Lao Cai? More than ten years? Fourteen years ago, when his father died, he didn't cry, standing in the heavy rain and smirking at the door of his house, which scared us all stupid at the time, you know, I thought he had hit an evil spirit, and he was still honest when he sent the funeral, and no one saw it after the funeral, and the people were gone. ”

"Gone?!"

"Well, no, I only came back in three or four days, and when I came back, I didn't have anything clean on my body, I could talk and laugh, and the older generation said that he was taken away by the fox fairy, and that his father was also killed by him."

Xiao Man smiled indifferently: "How can you say that, isn't this superstition?" ”

"Superstition?" The third aunt bit off the thread and looked at the slit at the lamp and whispered: "Who can tell if there is something that is true or fake?" Anyway, the older generation said so at the time, and we didn't believe it, but later, who didn't believe what happened? ”

"Those things?" Xiao Man was curious: "What are the things?" ”

The third aunt put down her clothes and came to Xiaoman and said mysteriously: "Summer, that is, the summer solstice when his father was gone for two years, at that time it happened to be the transformation of the city, the community across the old street had just begun to build, and the neighbors helped his family find him a stepfather, he was honest and willing to work, even if he didn't make too much money, but he had the strength to find work on the construction site and earn a lot, and his family was only his mother at that time, and it was really hard for an adult, so a few families in the old street said that this marriage was finally completed, but I didn't expect..."

"Unexpected?" Xiao Man looked at the face of the third aunt with a strange expression after a pause, and the atmosphere was not right, and the room was full of ghost stories.

The third aunt sighed and continued: "Unexpectedly, his family's life has just improved, and he has bought a house, and his mother is also sick, stomach cancer, advanced stage, and died in less than four months." ”

"Huh?" Xiaoman was stupid: "His mother... Isn't his mom good? ”

"Listen to me..."The third aunt moved her buttocks, with the gossip face of a woman on the street: "After his mother left, his family has always been supported by his stepfather, that person is also a character, he paid off all the loans to buy a house in five years, and found a way to dump goods, and made a lot of money, just four or five years ago, the former neighbors and new neighbors saw that Xia Zhi was almost twenty years old, and his personality became more and more gloomy, and they persuaded his stepfather to find a mother for Xia Zhi again, but I didn't expect it..."

"And you didn't expect that?"

"I didn't expect him to find a twenty-five woman!"

"Huh?!" Xiaoman was affected by the atmosphere created by the third aunt and became shocked.

"It's okay if it's just him, after all, he is also young and married to Xia Zhi's own mother, at that time it was only thirty-one and twelve, a few years short of a few years, but Xia Solstice was nineteen years old at that time, it is inevitable that someone will gossip, but the family affair is still so over, and after getting married, Xia Zhi's temperament is indeed much better, and he loves to laugh, he can talk, and he was admitted to a very good university, and this matter has passed, but...

"But?" Xiaoman was going to be completely ruined by the third aunt's habit of hanging her appetite.

"But in the summer when Xia Zhi was admitted to college, just a few days before Xia Zhi University started, his stepfather suddenly had a car accident."

Xiaoman was completely speechless when he heard this, it has come to this point, who else will not believe the statement of Take's parents? What's going on?

"And when these people left, Xia Solstice never cried, just laughed, laughed very happily, so everyone knew that Xia Solstice was probably wrong, and more and more people believed what the elders said, this child was taken by the fox fairy."

"But..." Xiao Man didn't believe this, only said that all these accidents were just accidents, and had nothing to do with the summer solstice, but he couldn't explain why he couldn't even cry when his family died, and he wouldn't just say what happened during the time when the summer solstice disappeared fourteen years ago.

"Now this is the situation in his house, two young men and women live together, gossiping more and more, but the two of them never care, we outsiders have taken care of so much and have an accident, and now we don't want to care." After the third aunt finished telling the story, packed up the needle and thread, washed her hands, came back and took her coat, instructed Xiao Man two sentences, and went home.

Xiaoman was left alone in a small rental house thinking about the summer solstice, the more he thought about it, the more curious he became, indeed his temperament that had nothing to do with him was completely different from others, but on that rainy day, he ran away from the desert and was very cute, which was completely inconsistent with his style.

Xiaoman was lying in bed and had insomnia.

Five

This year's rainy days seem to be endless, the old trees in Lao Cai have fallen flowers all over the ground, but there are still more than half left, which is the best comfort on the day of leaving home on the summer solstice.

Today's rain is very light and thin, so the fall seems to become very slow and floating, just like the mood of the summer solstice.

He knew that there were many promising young single men in Gu Yu's work unit who wanted to get closer to her, but Gu Yu always insisted that he would take care of the family alone and go to school by himself, although the money he worked on could be counted as a lot, and he didn't spend a lot of money, so only half of the school needs to be taken from home, but Gu Yu didn't think so.

She definitely believes that the future of Xia Solstice will not be bound in this small city, and the lot of property in the small city is not enough to see in the big city, when she came to this home, Xia Solstice was already the death of both parents, a state close to being adopted, and now this responsibility is on her shoulders, and she can't let Xia Zhi's biological mother blame herself.

Therefore, she must get ahead on the summer solstice and become famous, and for this reason, she must accumulate a strong foundation.

Xia Zhi leaned on the trunk of the old jujube tree and looked up at the canopy, after the heavy rain, the trunk of the continuous light rain was still slightly wet, and there was not a single insect in sight, so leaning on it was only slightly cool and rough, Xia Solstice just leaned on it, watching, and slowly the thoughts in the bottom of my heart disappeared little by little, I didn't think about anything, I didn't think about anything, quietly, alone.

The rustle of drizzle on the leaves and the rustling of water from the eaves of the buildings on the stone pavement, and the occasional sound of passing cars passing by in the new city, mixed with the faint voices of people coming from the old streets, was full of silence.

After a while, Xia Zhi's heart finally calmed down completely, he lowered his head, opened his umbrella and turned around to leave, but a voice came from behind him.

"Hey! Why did you leave when you saw me? ”

Xia Zhi turned around, still the little face with rain in jujube flowers, he took two steps closer, covered half of the umbrella on Xiao Man's head, and explained: "It's not that I saw you and left, but I was about to leave, but I didn't see you." ”

Xiao Man didn't care what he said, missed his body and walked into the shade of the canopy of the jujube tree: "Come and see the jujube tree again, do you like this tree?" ”

Xia Zhi nodded and asked rhetorically, "Aren't you here too?" Do you like it too? ”

"What? Not allowed? Xiao Man turned around and sent it over for nothing.

Xia Zhi smiled: "No, no, then you take your time, I'm leaving, and, remember to bring an umbrella next time, pay attention not to catch a cold in the rain." ”

"Cut! You have to take care of it! ”

Xia Zhi shook his head helplessly and left.

Xiao Man peeked at Xia Zhi's expression, but he didn't expect this thing to leave, hesitated, and saw that he was about to walk out of the old street, so he hurriedly chased after him, shouting while running: "Hey! You wait! ”

Xia Zhi heard her shouts and the sound of slippers stepping on the soaked stone road, stood still at the corner of the street and turned to see her running over, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"How do you say just go?"

"If you don't go, will you accompany you, my train will leave in a while."

"Trains?" Xiaoman was puzzled: "What train?" You're going far away? ”

"This time, I sneaked back while there were no classes at university, and I had classes tomorrow, so I had to go back, and... Still have questions? ”

"Oh......"When Xiaoman heard that he was leaving, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of loss, but he couldn't say what it felt, and he didn't have anything to say, so he couldn't directly ask you if you were a fox fairy, so he lowered his head and held back for a long time only one sentence: "I know, let's go, let's go, have a good trip." ”

Xia Zhi looked at her little face that was holding red, and wanted to laugh in her heart but couldn't help laughing, it's been so many years, of course Xia Zhi knows what she wants to ask, but it's still quite interesting to tease the little girl, so she didn't pierce it, just responded and walked away.

Xiao Man watched him walk away, and the top of his head suddenly felt a little cold, only to find that the rain began to get heavier, and just now he had been covering half of the umbrella on his head, and his heart was warm, and then looking at his distant back, he suddenly had a feeling of losing something, and his heart was empty.

"Hey!"

Xia Solstice turned around: "What? ”

Xiao Man waved his hand and shouted in the gradually dense rain curtain: "Where did you go to college?" ”

"Northeastern University, go back quickly, it's raining heavily." (I'm going to say I'm not advertising this...) )

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

Xia Zhi stood in the rain with an umbrella, and when Xiaoman ran into the depths of the old street, and could no longer see the pink coat in the rain curtain, he gently lifted the umbrella, looked up at the clouds in the sky, and sighed softly.

He gently lifted his feet, walked the last part of the old street, entered the new town, got into a taxi, and on the way to the station, the roadside scenery flew away, and the raindrops on the window slid backwards with the speed of the car, leaving a blurry trail of water.

Xia Zhi looked at the lights outside the car window because of the cloudy day, and suddenly felt a little nervous after a long absence, this is a feeling that has never been felt before, even if the father died, the mother died, and the stepfather died, there was no injury.

Even the little man from fourteen years ago, the days he left home...

"This year's Xiaoman......"He spoke softly, as if he was emotional, and it seemed like he was talking to himself.

"Xiaoman...

Six

Rubbing his head that was about to crack in pain, Xia Zhi got up from the bed, looked at the time of his phone, and finally determined the fact that class was about to start, so he reluctantly got dressed and walked to the water room with a towel and a toothbrush.

"Hey, up?" Ma Liu came out of the water room with a basin and saw the summer solstice with a painful face.

"Ahh

Remembering the scene of a few people going out to hi last night and then helping them back together to vomit in the toilet, Xia Zhi still had some palpitations, because he was unexpectedly very worried, so Xia Zhi did not organize the other three people to be debauched as before, but followed after pouring more than a dozen bottles of beer, he was dizzy.

The towel was covered on his head and wiped dry, Xia Zhi had already decided that he couldn't mess around with them next time.

It just so happened that Lin Yuanfeng came out of the toilet at this time, saw Xia Zhi and smiled: "What happened to Lao Xia yesterday?" Drink more than me! ”

Xia Zhi hung a towel around his neck and began to apply toothpaste, without even looking at him.

Lin Yuanfeng didn't give up, walked up to him and looked at him carefully, and said for a long time: "Hmm... From my years of experience, you must have fallen out of love! ”

Xia Zhi picked up the cup and rinsed his mouth, and a mouthful of foaming water sprayed onto the crotch of Lin Yuanfeng's flower pants, and he hurriedly took four or five steps back in a hurry, and scolded: ", you don't have to be so ruthless!" As he spoke, he tore off a few pieces of paper from the rolling paper in his hand and wiped them on his pants, but he was not annoyed after wiping, and walked in with a shy smile: "Forget it, buddy knows that the truth is not something that can be said casually, but you won't react so much..."

was about to continue, but saw that the next sip of water on the summer solstice was ready to go, so he hurriedly closed his mouth and fled in a panic.

Xia Zhi knew that he had always been such a slut with a broken mouth, so he didn't care, when he packed up his things and returned to the dormitory, Yang Dong was getting dressed, raised his hand to say hello, sat on the chair and opened QQ to start reading news and dynamics.

Suddenly, he wanted to know what Xiaoman's QQ was, and he didn't know what her nickname would be, and then he naturally thought of Xiaoman's real name, and he didn't know what Xiaoman's surname was, and he must ask her next time he went back.

At this time, I thought that the college entrance examination was about to begin, if Xiaoman was a senior in high school, then when I went back next time, would she be no longer in the old street? In this case...

Xia Zhi's book in his hand stopped halfway through his bag, and sat there in a trance.

"What's wrong?" Yang Dong put on his shoes and stood up, patted him on the shoulder and asked.

Xia Zhi shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm still dizzy, slowly." ”

Yang Dong pouted, who believes it, you looked unhappy last night, but who didn't have anything to say, so he had to say casually: "If you can't do it, don't go." ”

Xia Zhi smiled: "How can it be so serious?" As he spoke, he threw the book into his bag, stuffed two more pens indiscriminately, zipped them up and went out on his back.

Watching Xia Solstice close the door, Yang Dong shook the bed on the right hand side of the door, Ma Liu poked his head out from above and complained: "I said don't you always shake my bed, no, now my bed makes you ** like a young lady, as soon as I move, it will follow me, and it will be very enchanting..."

Yang Dong scolded with a smile: ", it's like you know Miss." Eh, did you say something was wrong with Lao Xia when he came back? ”

Ma Liu turned over and lay on his bewitching bed and said, "I'm not blind..."

"Then why do you say Lao Xia is like this?"

"Then who knows? You ask me, who do I ask? ”

"It must be a broken love!" Lin Yuanfeng came in from outside the door and used his mysterious, weird, ** voice and expression to successfully chill the two people in the room with goosebumps.

Ma Liu said weakly: "Yuanfeng, you don't know how to speak..."

Yang Dong also packed his schoolbag and ignored it.

Lin Yuanfeng was bored, and still persevered in approaching Yang Dong and asked tightly: "I'll tell you that it's eighty percent possible!" ”

Yang Dong rolled his eyes: "Has Lao Xia ever been in love?" How is it possible to fall out of love? ”

Ma Liubei smiled: "Have you asked?" How do you know that Lao Xia has never been in love? Let me tell you that the concealment of long-distance relationships in college is as high as 80%, and the probability of separation within three years of long-distance relationships is 50%, with such a high probability, who can be sure that Lao Xia does not have any childhood sweethearts or you at the same table? ”

Yang Dong thought about it, this is indeed the truth, although Lin Yuanfeng is not serious, the data he said at that time were probably obtained from formal channels, and the credibility is still quite high, plus Xia Zhi has never had such a big mood swing, and they can't think of anything that can make Lao Xia, who has always been a calm emperor, become like this, so they also began to be skeptical.

The power of curiosity is terrifying, and now the expressions on the faces of the three people in the dormitory who are looking at each other gradually change from doubtful thinking to weirdness and cunning, so there is a creepy laugh in the 510 dormitory...

Xia Zhi, who had just sat in the last row of the classroom, suddenly felt a chill in his back, looked behind him suspiciously, and found that the windows were closed well, only to say that his spleen and stomach were cold, thinking that he must eat a bowl of ramen at noon, and slowly lay on the table to make up for sleep.

Seven

Every time class ends, the corridor of the teaching building of the University of Tokyo will be crowded, and the upper and lower buildings will not be able to go up, and the situation will continue until the appropriate end, but everyone at the University of Tokyo will get used to this kind of crowding, and in the Nanhu Campus, the boys will also enjoy squeezing a few girls in the middle.

So, how to say?

That's it...

Xia Zhi didn't know what other universities were like, and he didn't care what other universities were like, he only knew that every time it was time for class to end, he would have a sense of powerlessness, so he always waited for all the people in the building to go out before going out.

Lin Yuanfeng was different, he couldn't wait for everyone to go out before he went out, he wanted to be the first to go out, and then stood under the patio and waited to see that the girl would go out.

Yang Dong still waited for Xia Solstice to stand up before going back with him, and there were not many people left in the classroom at this time.
