Four years have passed in the blink of an eye, and before I have experienced too much fun in childhood, I have been ruthlessly taken away by time.

Our small city is a typical winter long and summer short, often has not yet experienced the cold cicada poignant, the evening breeze blowing the willows wonderful, winter will come as scheduled, as if waiting for a long time, the winter town, the sun is weak during the day, there is always a feeling of going to strike at any time, there is no summer enthusiasm like fire and spicy.

The city's streets and roadside pines and cypresses are covered with thick snow, low houses are connected, snow falls on the roofs, and when the sun is strong, a little snow will melt and flow down, and the eaves are knotted with strings of crystal icicles, overlooking the urban village from a high place, like patches of white dough, reflecting each other in the ice water, isolated from the world.

During the winter vacation, Xiao Qing's parents came back from other places, and she couldn't accompany me and Sun Kai out to play crazy, but unexpectedly she invited us to her house to play, we were both very surprised, usually Xiao Qing came to our house to play, Mom and Dad and Uncle Sun had already known this girl, and sometimes stayed at home to eat, but it was the first time to go to her house, I said to Sun Kai: "It's too sudden, her house must be very high-end and clean, let's go to Riba people is a bit sloppy." ”

Sun Kai thought for a while and said, "Then you can't go,"

I thought about it for a long time, what was there to be afraid of, I just went to play, and I wouldn't be eaten, and if I didn't go, it would be too unconfident, so I said, "Of course you have to go, you go back and wash your dark and shiny neck, and we'll go in the afternoon." Sun Kai glanced at me and said, "Your neck is shiny, I am bronze skin, representing health, who is as white as you is like a girl, at first glance it is sub-healthy." I smiled indifferently: "What do you know, since ancient times, literati and writers have been a well-mannered pathology like me," Sun Kai heard this, a big word flew over, he curled the corners of his mouth shallowly, and said sarcastically: "If all the gentlemen since ancient times were sick like you, wouldn't they all become sick men." I was stunned for a while, and suddenly found that Sun Kai was quite insightful in dealing with things, and I said, "How do you know, what kind of gentleman and villain." He smiled and said: "Watching the Three Kingdoms, TV performances, I like Xiao Qiao the most." ”

I said, "Who is Little Joe?" Sun Kai said excitedly: "It's as beautiful as Xiao Qing." I didn't understand his intentions, so I asked: "What's the matter with Xiao Qing, where is Xiao Qiao's bridge?" After hearing this, Sun Kai immediately opened his mouth and laughed, I sat opposite him, very close to him, so I clearly saw that his throat and eyes were shaking left and right when he laughed, I stood up and said: "Don't laugh at the pig's head, the mouth is so wide, I almost see the stomach." ”

Sun Kai covered his stomach and said: "This Qiao is not the other bridge, Xiao Qiao is a beauty in the Three Kingdoms period, married to Zhou Yu." At that time, I hadn't seen the Three Kingdoms, so I didn't know the fish on this bridge, so I simply asked: "Xiao Qing is really so good-looking in your eyes?" Sun Kai said with a happy face: "Of course, she is more beautiful than Xiao Qiao." I thought to myself, you haven't seen the real Xiao Qiao, so let's make a comparison, I asked again: "Do you like Xiao Qing," Sun Kai heard it, and said without thinking: "Of course I like it, I will marry her as a daughter-in-law in the future." "A black line crossed my head, this guy seems to be precocious, looking for a good wife candidate at such a young age, it is really commendable, I looked at him and said: "Xiao Qing didn't say that she wanted to marry you, what are you proud of." Sun Kai's eyes suddenly brightened, and his expression changed from leisurely and complacent just now to panic, as if something important had been lost, he stood up and said, "If you don't marry me, I will definitely marry her." ”

I was a little embarrassed, but I didn't know what to say, I thought for a moment and said: "What are you excited about, I won't rob you, besides, there are still 108,000 miles away from you marrying a wife and having children, even if Xiao Qing agrees to marry you, you can't marry someone now." ”

Sun Kai sat down indifferently when he heard this, I looked at him carefully, in recent years, Sun Kai has changed by leaps and bounds in terms of body and appearance, or mind and mind, and his height is more than a head taller than a few years ago, especially his mind has matured a lot, and he has his own opinions on looking at problems and thinking about things, his eyes that were ignorant and ignorant before, have now grown into beautiful Danfeng eyes, his skin is compact and delicate, and his legs are slender, probably because of a single-parent family, Sun Kai has always been very self-reliant and self-reliant, sitting opposite and observing him, At the age of fifteen, he has a unique temperament that no adult possesses.

Although we are only in junior high school, he has always studied very hard, and he also likes to read books outside the school, because of the family's financial constraints, he often goes to his classmates to borrow books, and then reads them at a glance and ten lines, and I deeply admire the speed of reading. Sometimes I would ask him if he wanted to study liberal arts or science in high school, and he said of course it was science, and he wanted to build missiles in the future to fight terrorists.

Maybe it's because he's always been by my side, I didn't even notice this, just as I didn't realize that I was quietly changing.

The landline phone rang, and almost all families without mobile phones installed landlines at that time, I stood up and picked up the phone, "Hey, is it Wang Tao?" Xiao Qing's familiar hoarse voice came from the earpiece, and as soon as Sun Kai heard that it was Xiao Qing, he turned sideways to listen, and I said, "It's me." "Why haven't you come yet, my mother has prepared a table of dishes." After listening to this, I turned to Sun Kai and said with a smile: "A big table of dishes, haha." Sun Kai took the phone with a smile: "Xiao Qing, we will go over immediately, your mother is too hospitable, we are both a little embarrassed to go." After speaking, he heard a rush on the phone, and then hung up after a few simple words.

Xiao Qing went to primary school and junior high school not with me and Sun Kai a school, although not together in school, but every holiday or long vacation, will come to play with the two of us, she is very outgoing, everything is polite and courteous, generous, the quality is quite high, although Sun Kai and I have never been to her house, nor have we seen his parents, but in Xiao Qing's attitude towards the world, you can see that she was undoubtedly born in a scholarly family, the cultural atmosphere is very strong, Xiao Qing's academic performance has always been among the best, especially the Chinese grades are particularly good, She likes Li Qingzhao and Xu Zhimo's poems, although I don't like them either, but after Sun Kai found out, he went to the library to read Li Qingzhao and Xu Zhimo's poems, and wrote down a lot of wonderful words and sentences in a small book, so that he could read them to Xiao Qing in the future.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Kai and I went out, each bought some door-to-door gifts in the grocery store, the streets in winter were extremely cold, there was no life in the dry air, the sky was gloomy and saw a glimmer of light, it seemed that there was going to be a heavy snow at night, and the warm sun on weekdays also gave me a holiday, I don't know where to hide, on the spacious streets, passers-by were walking in a dark hurry, as if to avoid the oppressive weather, walking non-stop. The winter days in the north are short, usually dark before 5 p.m.

I turned to Sun Kai and said, "Let's hurry up, if you walk to Xiao Qing's house, it will take about half a o'clock, and it will take an hour to go back and forth, if you can hurry up, you can get home before dark." After hearing this, Sun Kai said, "Do you want to take a taxi and walk back." I changed my hand to carry the gift, put the other hand in my pocket, and said, "Don't you, we don't have any money left, let's go on foot." Sun Kai put his hand to his mouth and spit out a burst of white mist, and after warming his hands, he nodded. So we walked side by side to the north block.
