Chapter 61: The Distant Stars
"These mustard seedlings that have just been pulled out of the vegetable garden at home are the most delicious when used for stir-frying."
"This fish is fresh, in the mountain pond, home-raised ......"
β¦β¦
It's Saturday again. Early in the morning, before eight o'clock, Cao'er had already left school and went to the vegetable market on the county street. This market has been around for many years. It supplies rice, flour, grain, oil and vegetables to a large part of the city's residents. There are mainly some shops in the market, they collect their main products from the townships and towns, put them on the shop surface, let people choose, outside the market from the root of the market wall to the side of the street, most of them are the rural villagers of the townships, the vegetables grown at home, the chickens, ducks, geese and fish, and the mountain goods found in the mountains come to this market to shout. Even these mobile personal dishes are slightly different. Some of them use this as the main thing to increase their family income, such as fish farming in mountain ponds, specializing in this business, and they are in the old place every day, and slowly form their own climate. Some are the old people who pick up the seasonal vegetables that they can't eat at home, go to the vegetable garden at five or six o'clock in the morning to pick them up, walk with the bamboo dung basket with the morning sunshine and pick them out and put them in the air at the entrance of the market, this is not fixed, mainly the elderly or daughter-in-law are idle, they can also do it, the vegetables in the vegetable garden are growing well, they can take care of their own food and drink, and they can also exchange it for a little money to increase their income.
Usually from six o'clock in the morning to nine o'clock, it is the most lively time in this vegetable market, not to mention this Saturday morning, it is the bargaining between the vegetable buyers and the vegetable sellers, when you come and go, a street, a long section of this hundred meters, don't think the car can pass. The small county is small, there are no buses, vans, long-distance buses also know the situation of this road, almost do not pass through the market, the rest are cyclists, and most of them have to get off the bus, hold the front of the car, and press the bell to find the way through the gap between people.
Cao'er shook her head and looked at the lively crowd to see if there were any small shops selling biscuits, sweets and stationery nearby. She was planning to go to Li Yunfeng's house as soon as possible, and then rush back to her own house from his house, so that at most, she would go home at lunchtime, and her father and mother would not blame her for her homework at most.
But she thought about buying bags of biscuits for Li Yunfeng and her grandmother to eat, then buying bags of candy for Yunqin, and buying a pencil case for Yunhe, so that they could all be happy because of her arrival. After picking out the soft and thick magnolia round cakes that the old people could eat, and bought a bag of colorful candies and a dark blue double-layer iron stationery box, she held the bicycle and walked carefully around the crowd, thinking that she would get over here quickly, so that she could get to Li Yunfeng's house early, and maybe she could help him do some work and talk more.
"Starββ, you wait for me!"
A crisp girl's voice sounded from the side of Cao'er, and in front of the front of Cao'er's car, who was Zheng Xingxing? He was still tall and thin, but he seemed to be taller than before, and he stood quietly in the crowd, and even when he heard someone call him, he walked forward without looking back, but his pace slowed down noticeably.
"You're walking so fast, I'll buy a baked biscuit, and you're here!"
A girl grabbed the crowd from her, quickly squeezed over, caught up with Zheng Xingxing in front, and handed him a cup of soy milk in her hand.
He didn't say anything, he took the soy milk in the girl's hand and drank it through the tube, and it seemed that the two were very familiar. Cao'er looked at the girl behind her back, who was also their peer, with a long ponytail tied with a plain light flower short silk scarf, the end of her hair was almost up to the waist, and the back alone was extremely gentle, and the voice just now, although it seemed to be a complaint, there was no hint of complaint in the tone, but it seemed to be a crisp and gentle coquette.
Originally, it was a surprise to see Zheng Xingxing, but because of the appearance of this girl, Cao'er did not have the slightest desire to disturb them. Although she is now in junior high school, she is more girly than elementary school, but her hair is still a short boy's hairstyle, although her skin has turned white as early as a semester after transferring to the third grade, but her nose bridge is high, especially the root of her nose is higher than the average person, unlike the Daiyu sister in her mind, slender and long. Her face is round, although she looks like a melon seed face, but she is a round melon seed face, where is it as classical as this girl's long round goose egg face? What's more, the fluttering strands of hair that flew up when the girl ran past her made people's eyes flutter, and she didn't know when and how long she could grow it.
As soon as she was figuring it out, the girl put her hand down, reached into the jacket pocket on the side of Zheng Xingxing's waist, skillfully took out a bag of small tissues, took out a white square handkerchief like a soft tissue and wiped her mouth, and then put the remaining bag of tissues back into his pocket. 's skillful movements, I'm afraid they are already together every day, so they can be so tacit.
Cao'er watched their intimacy behind her back, not only because she didn't want to disturb others, but also because she was afraid that she would be discovered by them. So I thought about how I could quickly escape from this place without being discovered by them, so that my eyes could be taken away from their figures, so as not to give birth to constant torture in my heart.
After all, they used to be considered concubines. "Cut! Cut! Cut! As soon as she thought of the four words of Lang's love and concubine, Cao'er's heart couldn't help but despise herself, and she was ashamed of her concubine's affection! What's more, Zheng Xingxing has never confessed to her, and she doesn't know what people think in their hearts, it's not good, it's just that she shaves her head and picks her head. It's really self-inflicted, shameless, shameless! Cao'er scolded herself fiercely in her heart, so that she could sober her mind and not have too many bad emotions. At this point, the first thing is to protect your self-esteem, you can't lose face, as for Zheng Xingxing and this girl, no matter what their relationship is, I wish them happiness.
The grass was holding on to a big bulky bicycle and bobbing through the crowd. Fortunately, the two of her enemies in front of her walked a short distance and walked side by side into the gate of the No. 5 Middle School, which was quite tall and magnificent in the local area.
Cao'er then remembered that the vegetable market was diagonally opposite the entrance of the fifth middle school, no wonder he and his her were met here on the narrow road. Of course, if Cao'er met Zheng Xingxing alone this time, then she would definitely throw away her shyness and run over to greet him bravely, maybe they could chat with each other for a while! However, in this morning, life was crisply knocked out of Cao'er's head full of romantic fantasies with the voice of a strange but very important girl: "Life has no ifs! Everything should be done before it is too late! "I don't know if Cao'er understands it. Because a later incident proved this truth, only pity our grass, has always been an afterthought for life, and when you know, it is already time to happen. We'll talk about that later.
Let's talk about the current grass, regretting bitterly how to choose this point in time to walk on this road, so that she encountered such a period of other people's beauty, but it was her own desperate scene.
The feeling she couldn't express in her heart was neither that she wanted to cry happily, nor did she feel the ease of finally letting go, but just the sadness that was muffled and blocked her throat, and the corners of her eyes were a little wet, maybe it was tears, or it could be that the shouting in the vegetable market reminded her of the darkening night that fell into her eyes when she was a child when she danced and sang in her grandmother's vegetable garden, and remembered the stars that were gradually shining in the night at that time, hanging above her head, as if she could reach for it, but in fact it was extremely far away.
She and her big stupid bicycle dragged the morning sun, the boiling market, and the Zheng Xingxing and his little girlfriend - let's call it that - because Cao'er thought so in her heart, and their figure of the fifth middle school campus gradually disappeared behind her.
"I was hit by youth on the waist ......" the song wafted from a small shop on the side of the street.
Cao'er and Zheng Xingxing, the youthful sorrow that was once hidden in their hearts, was like a green branch of the central primary school they attended in this morning, broken on their youthful way to run forward.
She and him, if there is no beginning, it doesn't matter if it ends.
Looking back after a year, what was blown away in the dust of time was not only the clouds in the morning and sunset, but also their youthful thoughts that were gradually drifting away, like broken strings, I am afraid it will be difficult to continue.
Cao'er couldn't help but speed up the intensity of the car, and flew to Li Yunfeng's house.
