Not yet from your exodus

Relax

I don't think I'm old

It's like playing in the morning

Fascinated

Before I knew it, it was evening

Time is in the past

From the colorful

to rusty

maybe

Coffee at midnight

Memories can be grinded

maybe

Movies over the years

It is possible to wake up the years

But

You at the beginning

But only in dreams

Separated

A distance of 10,000 light years

——Zhang Mian, "The Distance of 10,000 Light Years"

Life goes on.

Gaojiacun Middle School has one more happy child.

Zhang Mian returned to Gaojiacun Middle School to continue his classes.

Monday's class was the most boring class of the week, Hu Dong always slept in a variety of different positions when other teachers were in class, leaning on a chair, lying on the table, or simply sleeping with his hands crossed and his head down, and he magically woke up quickly during recess, and when other students were unwilling to brag to him or brag about his own exhaustion, he looked up at the white breath he exhaled.

Liu Yifeng was either in a daze or writing and painting when he was in class, and when he got out of class, he was either fiddling his fingers or peeling melon seeds, it seems that Liu Yifeng also had something on his mind.

Gao Xiaoya would respond with a smile when Zhang Mian turned around to talk to her, and she listened to the lecture and took notes in class, she was still simply like her unchanged eyebrow bangs.

Zhang Mian hadn't fully recovered from the excitement, he sandwiched the picture of the swallow in his Chinese textbook, and would turn it out every ten minutes to look at it secretly.

He could feel the smell of happiness all over his body. The taste was the same as the one on the swallow in his arms a few years later.

When school was out in the afternoon, Principal Hu's family went to relatives.

Teacher Xue gave Zhang Mian money to eat in the school cafeteria, but Zhang Mian refused. Zhang Lu's pocket money for a week at that time was ten yuan.

Because when Zhang Mian returned to Gaojia Village one week, he forgot to ask his mother for money, and when he was leaving, he saw his father who had just returned home from the county seat to work. Without hesitation, my father pulled out a ten-dollar note, which was very torn and had scotch tape on it.

Zhang Mian took the money and rode back to Gaojia Village on his bicycle. A month later, Zhang Mian's eldest sister scolded Zhang Mian severely, and it turned out that the ten yuan was the food money for the day when his father went out.

When Zhang Mian opened his mouth to ask his father for money, Zhang Mian's father did not hesitate to hand the crumpled money with duct tape to his son, and he himself starved for a day.

The stubborn Zhang Mian listened to his sister's reprimand, and did not speak up for the first time, at that age he could fully imagine his father not eating three times a day, and then dragging his tired body home.

In that year, his father was forced to return to Zhangjia Village from Fengcheng for various reasons, and did not return to his hometown, he came back wearing an earthy yellow suit, with a haggard face, Zhang Mian's photo album has this only photo with his parents, Zhang Mian sat in the middle of his parents, with long hair, and his mother was still the kind of expressionless face tortured by life.

What makes Zhang Mian feel relieved now is not that he has a stable job in the city, but that his parents are still alive, and when he is full of thoughts, he can return to Zhangjia Village to see them, and on the land where he was born and raised, his parents are bent on their bodies, seeing his arrival, and still smiling happily.

The canteen in Gaojia Village is said to be a distant relative of Mr. Wang's family, Zhang Mian has eaten in the canteen several times before, and the previous attitude towards Zhang Mian is very good, after all, the school is very small, Zhang Mian eats and lives in the principal's house, and the proprietress is also polite when she sees Zhang Mian, and she pretends not to want money, but she doesn't even do a fake action of pushing and shoving, and puts the money in the wooden money box that can't see what color it is.

But after only peeping into the girl's dormitory from Hu Dong and being caught by Teacher Wang, the proprietress suddenly felt that she was a character at school, as if she was dragging the principal's pigtails, and began to be arrogant.

This is also the most direct impact of Hu Dong's voyeurism incident on Zhang Mian, and it is also what Zhang Mian did not expect, when Zhang Mian told Hu Dong about this one night, Hu Dong was relieved after being stunned.

Zhang Mian looked at his expression and knew that there should be something in this that he didn't know, Zhang Mian asked Hu Dong but the canteen proprietress felt that she had caught your sore spot. Hu Dong faintly told Zhang Mian that he had seen her sore spots.

Zhang Mian inquired and found out that his daughter in the cafeteria also lived in school.

It is estimated that Hu Dong went to the cafeteria to eat, and the boss gave rat poison at worst, and spit into the rice at the lightest.

The school cafeteria provides noodles, steamed buns and dumplings in the evenings, the buns are made in a large pot for five yuan, and the noodles and dumplings are all one dollar per bowl.

That night, there were more than 20 people eating in the cafeteria, Zhang Mian paid one yuan for a bowl of noodles, the conditions of the canteen were very simple, the squeaky square table, the long wooden stool, and the chopsticks were always black, but no one cared why it was black at that time.

These people who eat, there are a few of Zhang Mian's class, but Zhang Mian didn't remember their names, and the rest of the noodles are cooked, and the most impressive thing is a fat man in the neighboring class, he can eat two bowls of noodles and drink two bowls of noodle soup, and the buns can eat three yuan, it is estimated that he can't afford to eat, every time Zhang Mian touches him, he is sucking noodles.

When Hu Dong talked about him, he looked contemptuous, saying that he was reincarnated as a starving ghost, his family's economic conditions were not good, and he was so able to eat.

We can't change our birth, but we can completely control how much we eat.

When Zhang Mian hadn't eaten half of the noodles on the first night, the fat man had already eaten the second bowl.

"Boss, come and see, what is this?" At this moment, the fat man let out a loud cry and gave full play to the advantages of his figure.

"Who is doing what is going on, don't eat and fuck off." The proprietress walked out of the cafeteria with an unhappy face.

"Look at what this is, it's disgusting." The fat man used chopsticks to pick out a ripe green vegetable insect and showed it to Zhang Mian and the others.

"Cabbage worm, what's wrong." The proprietress was dumbfounded.

"There are bugs, this bowl can't be counted as money." Under the absolute momentum of the proprietress, the fat man Nuo Nuo's words completely lost his previous confidence.

"What's wrong with the worm, a clean piece of meat, how old are you, I just think about the wicked person, but, what class are you, I'll find your homeroom teacher tomorrow." The proprietress was about to point her hand at the fat man's nose.

"Then you can change the bowl for me." The fat man is estimated to be also heartbroken, and so many classmates are watching.

"If you like to eat, you can eat it, and if you don't eat it, get out." The proprietress waved her hand and turned away without the slightest hesitation.

The fat man stood there silent for twenty seconds, then sat down and put the green cabbage worm on the chopsticks in his mouth, and continued to suck the noodles.

This is an out-and-out true plot, Zhang Mian left his hometown to study in Lanzhou and Shenyang, and ate countless noodles, but never ate noodles with green vegetables again.

Because of the cafeteria proprietor's sentence, what's wrong with the worm, a clean piece of meat. It has been engraved in Zhang Mian's mind. There is also the picture of the fat man watching the green cabbage insect eat it angrily.

It's really memorable.

From that day on, Zhang Mian was only convinced of the fat man in Gaojiacun Middle School.

What is it to take the white blade empty-handed, and eating vegetable insects empty-mouthed is the real skill.
