At first, Zhai Yi was reluctant to return to S City with his parents.

After all, he has been living in H City for 15 years.

In his heart, H City is the economic center of the country, while S City is just a small city, a corner of peace. What is more important is not these, but all his friends, good classmates, these important bonds in his first 15 years of life, with his father's move back to his hometown.

Zhai Yi's father, Zhai Annan, was an associate professor at a well-known university in H City, and became the president of the S City Calligraphy and Painting Association as soon as he came back. And her mother is a native of H City, and she followed her husband here and still works as her university teacher.

Zhai Yi won the National Mathematics Olympiad Award when he was 10 years old, but he personally prefers literature and art, probably because of genetics.

He has always learned piano, and this time his parents promised to find a piano teacher for him who could continue to teach him in S City, so that he would not be able to make trouble and obediently follow his parents back.

Such a teenager is undoubtedly arrogant.

is also a transfer in the second half of the year, and the rain is in fact very different from his situation.

Rushing rain is not of the same level as Zhai Yi, one grade lower than him, although he is two years younger than him. This is because there is no kindergarten in Qiandeng Town, she went to school relatively early, and her brain is not stupid, so she transferred to this school and did not repeat a grade.

Rushing Yu had just memorized the bus stop route to school a day earlier, while Zhai Yi sat in the back seat of his car and was driven to school by his father. Zhai's mother sat in the passenger seat, and after sending him to school first, it was Zhai's mother's turn to send him.

Zhai's mother is a middle school teacher, but not a school.

The same travel distance, different travel arrangements.

So on the morning of the start of school in this winter, the torrential rain got up an hour earlier than Zhai Yi. For her, who grew up in Jinxi Town, waking up early is not a difficult task.

At seven o'clock, both of them took their own transportation and rushed to the No. 9 Middle School in S City.

No. 9 Middle School is the best middle school in S City.

However, for Zhai Yi, it is just an ordinary middle school with complete multimedia equipment.

For Torrential Rain, which originally grew up in Qiandeng Town under the jurisdiction of S City, Jiuzhong is of course in an extraordinary position. Even if she has good grades, she can "enter" the ninth middle school halfway, and her father still has a lot of twists and turns.

Both of them reported to work on time.

"My name is Kim Rush. The 'hurry' of 'not rushing', the 'rain' of 'rain'. Jin Qiangyu from the second (6th) class of junior high school said.

As for the origin of the name, it was just her guess. She had no way of confirming this to the person who named her. Because her name wasn't chosen by her father.

"Hello everyone, my name is Zhai Yi. Zhai' is a surname, from Yu from Yu. 'Yi' is the word 'rabbit' plus a 'of'. ”

Gu Nianzhu raised her head and looked at the transfer student with interest, just like all the students in the class.

Then I heard the head teacher speak: "Li Zhiyuan, you sit next to Chen Zhigang in the back." ”

Li Zhiyuan is the squad leader and Gu Nianzhu's tablemate.

After a minute of handover, Zhai Yi had become her new tablemate.

In the minute after the head teacher announced just now, Gu Nianzhu heard the whispers and attention of all the students in the class. She's used to it.

When Zhai Yi sat down beside her, she smiled politely at him.

Zhai Yi also smiled and nodded.

After class, Gu Nianzhu went to the toilet.

There, she was overwhelmed by the rain for a moment.

The rain was felt wrong in the middle of the previous lesson. I vaguely guessed what it was, but it was difficult to confirm it for a while, and because there was no countermeasure, I just hoped it was my own delusion.

As a result, the first thing I said to my table mates in class was: Excuse me, where is the toilet?

Fortunately, my table mate is a girl.

When I got to the toilet, I saw that it was menarche unexpectedly.

What to do?

She panicked. Then I couldn't help but rejoice that it was winter. Wear it thick enough, and the down jacket is long enough.

When I looked up, I saw a girl holding something similar to a tampon in her hand.

The reason why it is similar is because the torrential rain has never been used, and the girl's hand is not the same as what she has seen.

"Classmate, ...... you" Rushing Yu said very embarrassedly: "Can you...... Borrow ...... first"

The girl was slightly stunned, then immediately understood, and she handed it to Torrential Rain.

"Thank you." Rushing rain said sincerely.

She found that the "piece" handed by the girl, if it didn't appear in the women's toilet, ordinary people couldn't guess the purpose at all. Because it's packaged like a work of art. Not to mention the faint aroma, there is also a fresh calendula pattern.

"Classmate, which class are you from?"

Gu Nianzhu turned her head and looked at her strangely.

"You don't want to pay me back, do you?" She said.

"No, it's a matter of effort." Gu Nianzhu smiled kindly at her and left.

Because of this little episode, Rainstorm's anxiety about transfer life disappeared. She felt that the people in the ninth middle school were not as arrogant and difficult to get along with as the legend.

Who would have thought that the friendship between Gu Nianzhu and Jin Qiangyu started with a piece of tampon.

And that's for later.

When Gu Nianzhu returned to the classroom, he found that his seat was actually occupied by Yan Ziru. There are also her "green leaf" little sisters around.

"Your surname is Zhai, what a special surname."

"By the way, why did you transfer to another school in the second half of the third semester of junior high school?"

"Where did you come from?"

"Ah, it turns out that you're not from S City, I said, you look like you're from a big city. It's just different from the other boys in our class. ”

Zhai Yi seemed to be used to this kind of scene, and he was very comfortable with them.

Gu Nianzhu walked over, and Yan Ziru's "green leaf" sisters all gave way, but Yan Ziru herself had no intention of getting up.

She was puzzled.

Isn't this an elementary school where the interest in a transfer student is so strong?

"Excuse me, let me take something." She said.

And Yan Ziru only moved his body slightly, giving up more space than before, and was still talking to Zhai Yi: "Where does your family live?" It's a long way from the school......"

Gu Nianzhu frowned.

"Trouble aside". She owes a debt and goes to get the "things" in the schoolbag on the belly of the table.

Today is the first day, especially much more, and the body is especially unwell. It only makes sense for her to solve it sooner.

Yan Ziru sat facing Zhai Yi, with her back to Gu Nianzhu, when she just took the things out of the table, at the same time Yan Ziru's elbow touched lightly, the force was not heavy, but the fatal tampon fell to the ground with a "snap".

Gu Nianzhu couldn't help blushing.

"Huh~"

"Hey, that's not ......"

Yan Ziru and her green leaf sisters, in a voice that was neither light nor serious, announced to everyone in the classroom that there was an accident here.

However, a hand quickly picked it up, clamped it with a math book, and handed it to Gu Nianzhu: "I missed it for a while, please don't mind." Zhai Yi said.

A gentle sentence made the surroundings retract the gossip's gaze.

Gu Nianzhu's good impression of Zhai Yi only came from this time.

She whispered a thank you.

Yan Ziru suddenly added: "Rosary, I should apologize to you." In fact, I was to blame for being careless just now, Zhai Yi, you ...... Thank you. ”

Zhai Yi's actions were instantly interpreted as her taking responsibility.

Gu Nianzhu didn't say a word, took the math book, and walked out of the classroom.

It's not that you don't understand, but you don't disdain.

Yan Ziru felt that her smile was particularly dazzling, as if it contained infinite ridicule.

is also a beautiful woman on the list of the ninth middle school, Gu Nianzhu is just relying on a father who is the director of the education bureau, and she is so arrogant.

Lu Jian, who was in the next class, was recognized as a school grass and rarely talked to girls, but she came to Gu Nianzhu to borrow books a few times.

Gu Nianzhu's grades are only in the middle and upper reaches, to put it bluntly, which is borrowing books, it is clear that he is here to rush people.

Transfer student Zhai Yi is more handsome than Lu Jian, but as soon as he came, he was arranged as Gu Nianzhu's tablemate.

The daughter of the director of the Education Bureau is treated differently, even the teacher is so partial.

Yan Ziru thinks that she is no worse than Gu Nianzhu, her family is in business, and her grades are better than Gu Nianzhu, not to mention that she is more popular among girls. So there will always be hostility towards Gu Nianzhu.

But Zhai Yi and Gu Nianzhu will soon become friends.

Because they are not only at the same table, but also students in the same place where they learn musical instruments.

A week later, they met again outside of school.

This time, it was Zhai Yi who greeted him first: "Hi." ”

"Hi". Gu Nianzhu nodded with a smile and guessed, "You learn piano?" ”

Zhai Yi nodded, glanced at the instrument bag behind her, and guessed, "Is it a guitar?" ”

"No, I'm studying folk music." Gu Nianzhu said, "It's a pipa." ”

Zhai Yi glanced at Gu Nianzhu's hand, ten fingers, and a good hand, shining with pink luster.

Although she usually wears a prosthetic nail when she plays the lute, she still listens to her mother and soaks her nails in a soup made of ginger and baiji every night. It can be said that Gu Nianzhu is a soft and fragrant girl, except for her extremely seductive pair of "sharp claws".

And Zhai Yi is the standard "pianist". The palms are large and white, the fingers are slender, and it is no problem to span 12 degrees - only 8 degrees, and you can't play Chopin. His nails are neatly cut to reveal their full fingertips.

In the same way, there was no trace of labor in the palms of his hands, and even the tips of his ten fingers could not see obvious calluses.

In this way, two pairs of hands can almost speak for the pampering of their owners.

Rushing rain patrolled the shelves of the supermarket downstairs for a long time, but could not find the same sanitary napkin given by Gu Nianzhu, so he had to take two packs and pay at the cashier.

When I returned home, I found that Jin Minghai had not returned.

Just after changing into slippers, the phone suddenly rang in the living room.

Rushing rain picked up, and the other party's voice and noisy voices came over: "I still have a business to discuss here, Rushing Rain, you can get some food yourself, don't be hungry." "The speaker is Jin Minghai.

"yes, got it." Rushing Rain asked him, "Dad, will you come back at night?" She heard the sound of staccato singing in addition to laughter and laughter.

"Well, if it's late, I won't go back." Jin Minghai said, "You go back and finish your homework and go to bed early." ”

"Oh, good." Torrential Rain hung up the phone.

She went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of chicken noodle soup and a poached egg.

There is still a lot of chicken soup left over from noon. There are also some quick-frozen dumplings in the fridge that can be used again tomorrow morning. As soon as Torrential Rain brought noodles to the table and sat down, it was dark in front of him, and the power went out.

Qiandeng Town is remote, and insufficient power supply is a common occurrence. So this has developed her habit of being prepared. There were many candles in the desk drawers in her room.

When she found it, she immediately ordered one on the desk in her bedroom. Then he turned back to the living room, fixed one on the dining table, and began to concentrate on eating noodles.

I had just taken a few bites when I heard a knock on the door.

She was a little puzzled, thinking that it was unlikely that Jin Minghai would suddenly return early.

One after another, the force is neither light nor heavy.

She got up to open the door with a candle, and when she opened it, she saw that it was a young man, wrapped in a red plaid scarf, a black tweed trench coat with the chill of the wind and snow outside, and his white face was more three-dimensional against the dark background, and the faint light of the candle swaying made a shadow on the side of his nose. She was stunned, "Chen Yuyao." ”

"What?" The boy didn't hear clearly, and asked.

No, not him.

As soon as the other party spoke, she immediately came to her senses and asked, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

"Oh, that's right", a trace of embarrassment flashed on Zhai Yi's face, "I forgot to bring the key, I knocked on the door for a long time just now and there was no response, it should be that my parents are temporarily home." And now ......"

And now the power is out again. Rushing Rain looked at him again and asked, "You live on the other side?" ”

"Well, yes." Zhai Yi said.

The young rain opened the door of his house to him, and said, "Either you can come in first, it's cold outside." ”

Zhai Yi entered the door and was about to change his slippers, when the rain re-fixed the candle, turned around and said with a smile: "Don't be so troublesome." I'm going to drag this land for a while anyway. ”

Hearing that she was doing housework by herself, Zhai Yi looked up and looked around again, and asked her, "What about your family?" ”

It was as if she was a schoolboy and he was much older than herself.

Hearing this, Rushing Rain smiled and said, "My dad is busy with something and hasn't come back yet." As soon as I sat down and took a pair of chopsticks and noodles, I remembered, "Have you eaten?" ”

"Eat...... Eaten. Zhai Yi said. In fact, he was lying, he had just come back from piano lessons, where did he have dinner. I knew about this and bought a sandwich at a convenience store.

Hearing him say this, Rushing Rain continued to eat his noodles again. If you don't eat it, it's going to be cold.

And Zhai Yi became a little cramped under this quiet, not to mention that he still sang "Empty City Plan" in the aroma of chicken noodle soup in his stomach.

"My name is Zhai Yi." 'Yi' is the 'Yi' of 'comfort'. What is your name? "Zhai Yi rarely has nothing to say like this.

"Torrential rain. Golden Rain. ”

"Your name is so special." Zhai Yi said, "Golden Torrent is the name of a flower. ”

Rushing Rain was stunned, and then asked with a smile, "How do you know?" ”

"Reading books, of course." Zhai Yi said, "Golden Rain, also known as 'Golden Rain', is a long-term flower tree in Taiwan. Lin Qingxuan's essay is called "Golden Rain". ”

"You know so much." Rushing rain thought that he must usually like to read, and glanced at him, his body was thin, and his legs were slender and long and characteristic of adolescent boys, she was a little difficult to judge, and couldn't help asking: "Are you in junior high school or high school?" ”

She was answered with a loud belly thump.

Zhai Yi's face was red, although he couldn't see clearly in the dim candlelight, he hurriedly answered Rushing Rain's question to hide his embarrassment: "I'm in Ninth Middle School." I am in the third year of junior high school. ”

Rushing Rain pursed her lips and smiled, "Me too, but a year below you." ”

"Oh." "Then we can go to school together." ”

"Why don't I cook a bowl of noodles for you?"

Zhai Yi couldn't refuse this offer, because his stomach had been protesting since just now, and he muttered, "Oh, thank you then." ”

Torrential rain went to the kitchen with a bowl.

Soon, a bowl of poached egg noodle soup with the same ingredients was brought out and placed on the table. Torrential Rain beckoned to him, "Come and eat." ”

Probably because of hunger, Zhai Yi felt that this bowl of noodles was extraordinarily fragrant.

The English texts to be taught tomorrow have not yet been reviewed, but the rain is not good enough to leave him alone in the living room, so he went back to his room and took out the candles and Chinese textbooks.

Zhai Yi whispered noodles at one end of the table, while she read quietly at the other end.

The two didn't bother each other, but the atmosphere was good.

Zhai Yi glanced up at the torrential rain, her small, white face looked very quiet under the flickering candlelight.

"Finished eating?" Rushing Rain closed the book and asked.

"Oh, yes." Zhai Yi nodded, and hurriedly lowered his head to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but was stopped by the torrential rain: "Let me come." With that, he stood up.

Zhai Yi had no choice but to stop his movements and handed her the dishes and chopsticks.

He didn't mind clumsily washing the dishes once, but he didn't want to go against his host's wishes.

Torrential rain quickly washed the two dishes and returned to the living room.

She sat across from him and asked him, "How is your English?" ”

He has received bilingual teaching since kindergarten in H City, and English is naturally not a problem, but he still says in a humble spirit: "It's okay." ”

"Mine isn't so good." Torrential rain said. She has only been exposed to English since the first year of junior high school, and now that she has transferred to No. 9 Middle School, which is full of top students, her weakness in English has become even more obvious.

"Vocabulary is the main thing. You may want to consider buying an intermediate Oxford dictionary. Zhai Yi said: "There is also more listening, which is powerful in correcting your oral pronunciation, and it is also helpful for the listening test." ”

Torrential Rain nodded and wrote them down one by one. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said to Zhai Yi with a smile: "You are in the third year of junior high school, aren't you going to face the high school entrance examination?" She paused, "Keep it up." ”

Zhai Yi's heart warmed, and he said softly: "Thank you." Then he asked Torrential Rain, "What is the best high school in S City?" Seeing that Rushing Yu was puzzled, he explained: "Actually, I just transferred here this semester. ”

Rushing rain was stunned, but he didn't expect it to be the same as himself. She especially understood the feeling of being a newcomer, so she did her best to say: "Of course it's a middle school." However, there are also many people who will report to the high school attached to S City of Xi'an Jiaotong University, because the second capital rate is very high. Those who have an advantage in foreign languages are most likely to want to enter a foreign Chinese school. ”

Zhai Yi asked her, "If it were you, which school would you attend?" ”

"Me", Torrential Rain paused, then smiled and said, "Of course I want to be hit." If the score is enough. ”
