Chapter 664: A Look at the Heart (93)
The night in the countryside is very quiet, unlike the city at this point in time, where the lights are brilliant everywhere, and it is the time when the nightlife begins.
Yao Yi nestled in Gu Xiao's arms and listened to the sound of insects chirping outside, while talking to Gu Xiao, and fell asleep while talking.
Gu Xiao waited for her to fall asleep, received a message, and threw the phone on the cabinet next to her without replying, and then hugged her to sleep.
The next morning, the two got up early, first went for a walk to breathe in the fresh air, and then came back for breakfast, and after breakfast, they went to the back mountain to pick tea.
The freshly picked tea leaves are handed over to the people who manage this tea mountain to be fried at the end of their work, and then packed and brought back to drink, and they can also be given to the people who sent them.
After returning from Chashan, Yao Yi asked Gu Xiao, "Shall we go back early in the afternoon?" ”
Gu Xiao thought that there was still a place to go after this trip, so he said: "After eating, go to a place first, and when we are done, we will go back." ”
Yao Yi asked suspiciously, "Where are you going?" ”
Gu Xiao came here for the first time, he didn't know much about this place, what else did he want to go?
Gu Xiao looked mysterious, and said with a smile: "You'll know when you go." ”
Yao Yi didn't continue to guess, and went to help Zeng Yulan prepare lunch, Gu Xiao accompanied Zheng Jun to play a game of chess, and when he was playing chess, he asked Zheng Jun about the way to Yao Yi's middle school.
After lunch, all the things that were going to be brought back received in the trunk, Gu Xiao said goodbye to Zeng Yulan and Zheng Jun, and pulled Yao Yi into the car.
"Didn't you say you were going somewhere? Not walking? "When Yao Yi buckled his seat belt, he still felt strange.
"I have to drive over," Gu Xiao said without changing his face.
Yao Yi was full of suspicion, and when Gu Xiao drove a while, she looked in that direction and vaguely guessed something, "Go to my school?" ”
Gu Xiao didn't expect her to guess it, so she didn't hide it anymore, "Yes, didn't you say you took me to see it before?" ”
"I didn't say," Yao Yi denied, she said that she was obviously taking him over to see the village, not taking him to visit the school!
"You forgot," Gu Xiao glanced at her.
"I have a good memory," Yao Yi was not convinced, obviously he wanted to go by himself, and it had nothing to do with her, "How do you know how to go this way?" ”
"Uncle said," Gu Xiao said, "You have been away from school for so long, you don't want to go back to see?" ”
Yao Yi was quite uncomfortable by his eyes, and coughed lightly, "Actually, it's nothing to look at." ”
Gu Xiao sighed meaningfully, "Then you don't want me to see it?" ”
"Nope!" Yao Yi denied it, and then said loudly, "You can watch it if you want to, in fact, it's nothing special, it's definitely not as good as the school you studied." ”
Gu Xiao smiled and said nothing.
Yao Yi is a little embarrassed, Gu Xiao's thoughts, sometimes it's hard to guess, but sometimes she is blessed to the soul, and she still understands it very well.
Ten minutes to the school, the weekend school holiday, the door is locked, but the guard room is occupied.
Although Yao Yi has graduated for many years, she used a dialect to talk to the old man, and pointed to Gu Xiao who followed her and said a bunch of words, and finally the small door on the side opened to let them enter the school, but they couldn't stay too long.
The campus of the junior high school is not large, and the area is still the same, except that several teaching buildings and dormitory buildings have been renovated.
The entrance is facing a concrete avenue lined with plane trees, a library and playground on the right, a basketball court and a small football field, and on the left side are the first two school buildings, behind which are the dormitories where the students live, and in the back are the dormitories of the teachers.
Walking around doesn't take long at all.
Yao Yi still remembered the three classrooms she had spent in junior high school for three years, and took Gu Xiao to see it, the tables and chairs inside had been changed I don't know how many times, and they stayed there quietly in rows.
Yao Yi stood at the door and took a photo of the classroom sign, and then stood by the window and asked Gu Xiao to take a picture of her.
Out of the teaching building, Yao Yi took Gu Xiao to the playground, pointed to the library and said, "This building was donated by your company, it's really heroic!" ”
Before this building, their library was very dilapidated, it was the top floor of the teaching building, there were two rooms, and there were no computers at all.
So at that time, there were companies that donated buildings and computers, and in people like Yao Yi who had never seen the world and were poor, they were really local tyrants!
"You can donate now," Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I can't donate, I'm also poor now," Yao Yi said, "sometimes people are really angry with people, just like you, when you are born, you have everything, and we work day and night, we can't reach the level of you." ”
Gu Xiao disagreed, "The main thing is that the brain is not good, you see that most of those really powerful people are self-made." ”
Yao Yi, who was ridiculed for his bad brain, was so angry that he raised his foot and kicked him, Gu Xiao laughed twice, "Say two words to you, you are still annoyed and angry!" ”
"Hmph," Yao Yi stared at him with his hands on his hips, "I have a bad brain and a bad vision, so I can be with you, so you are not very good." ”
Gu Xiao, "......"
Yao Yi looked at him and felt like he was getting back, and laughed proudly.
Gu Xiao shook his head, too lazy to bother with her again.
There is a grandstand on one side of the playground, Yao Yi and Gu Xiao sat down on the top floor, Yao Yi leaned on the back of the chair and said to Gu Xiao: "In the past, the school did morning exercises, held conferences, and held sports meetings, all here. ”
How much sweat has been spilled, and how much laughter has been left behind.
Gu Xiao didn't speak, he was trying to recall what happened when he stood here ten years ago, it seemed to be a little impression, but it was very vague, after all, too much time had passed.
"What was it like on the day I came?" Gu Xiao really couldn't think of it, so he asked Yao Yi.
Yao Yi stared at him for a few seconds, cleared his throat, and pointed to the high platform in the middle, "Just below that, a platform has been built, and you stand on it and speak on behalf of the donor." ”
After speaking, she pointed to the right side of the playground, "Our class sits there, and Jiang Chi and I sit relatively back." ”
Originally, this kind of thing is extremely boring, and they like to sit at the back, and they can talk in a whisper, or doze off or something, to pass the time.
Unexpectedly, a young handsome guy came that day, clean and gentle, and when he stood on the stage, he fell asleep and ran away, which made people want to look at it twice, and even regretted not sitting in the first row.
Yao Yi hid these words in his heart and didn't tell Gu Xiao, if he said this, he would definitely have to laugh at her, and then Tian shamelessly showed a smug smile.
"What did I say?" Gu Xiao asked again, he looked at the position where Yao Yi pointed to her sitting.
Yao Yi's eyes rolled, "I don't remember!" It was all ten years ago, how could I possibly remember it clearly. ”
Gu Xiao tilted his head to look at her, "You really don't remember, or do you remember too clearly to be embarrassed to say." ”
was ruthlessly pierced by Gu Xiao, Yao Yi's expression was a little uncomfortable, "You are just like a leader's speech, what is there to remember." ”
Gu Xiao squinted his eyes and smiled, "So I didn't remember anything, just looked at my face?" ”
Yao Yi was embarrassed by his ridicule, "Am I the kind of superficial person?" ”
Gu Xiao gave her an affirmative answer, "Yes!" ”
Yao Yi smiled angrily, she doesn't just look at the external existence of the face, she still has culture and connotation.
She still remembers some of the words Gu Xiao said, although some of the words are often said by the teacher, such as knowledge changes fate, but it may still be a scorer, what the teacher said is in the left ear and out of the right ear, but he listens to what he says.
The situation of the Zheng family that year was not good, Zeng Yulan had a serious illness, and she spent all her family's savings, not to mention borrowing a lot of money from others, so Yao Yi, who was originally very average in her studies and was the adopted daughter of the Zheng family, planned to go out to work and make money after the third year of junior high school.
At that time, her thoughts were very firm, Zheng Yunyi persuaded her, but she couldn't listen to it, but after listening to Gu Xiao's words, she changed her mind again, she went to Zheng Yunyi, saying that she wanted to continue studying, Zheng Yunyi happily agreed, let her not have to worry about anything, everything has him.
Looking back now, Yao Yi is very glad that she made such a choice at that time, and even thinks that fortunately she didn't avoid going to the conference that day, otherwise she wouldn't have seen Gu Xiao, she wouldn't have changed her mind and continued to study, she wouldn't have returned to Yao's house, she wouldn't know him, she wouldn't know him, there would be no possibility of being together, and he would only be a dream.
All of this may be predestined in the dark.
Yao Yi remembers Gu Xiao, who was standing on the stage in a white shirt to speak, his clothes were neat and clean, his voice was clean and clear, and his tone was unhurried when he spoke, like gurgling water in the mountains, refreshing people's hearts, making people forget the irritability of being scorched by the scorching sun.
Yao Yi didn't tell Gu Xiao what he said, and Gu Xiao couldn't remember it, but he looked at the open space, as if he saw a teenage girl in a school uniform, looking at him intently.
……
After returning to Lancheng, Yao Yi couriered some of the things he brought back to Yu Xiaoxing, brought some to Yan Song, kept some for himself, and took the rest back to Yao's house to Zhou Shiwen.
The Yao family may not be able to see these things, but Yao Yi still got them back, seeing Zhou Shiwen smile and ask her to hand over the things to the maid.
"Back for the weekend?" Zhou Shiwen looked at Yao Yi and asked, "You sent them back alone?" ”
"No, Gu Xiao went with me," Yao Yi said with a chuckle, looking at Zhou Shiwen's face quietly, "He went back with me to see, he hadn't been to the countryside, take him to experience it." ”
Zhou Shiwen's expression was a little unnatural, and she laughed twice, "Can Ah Xiao adapt?" Where do you still live? It's inconvenient, right? ”
In Zhou Shiwen's view, the countryside is naturally not as convenient as the city, not to mention transportation, but the living facilities are not perfect.
"Mom, don't say it, Gu Xiao is quite adaptable, those chestnuts were picked up by me and him going up the mountain to pick them back, and peeling them one by one," Yao Yi said with a smile, "I think when we are old, we can go to the countryside to live and be very comfortable." ”
Zhou Shiwen, "......"
"Sister Yiyi, are you and Mr. Gu going to get married?" Yao Xuezhi entered the living room from the kitchen with a fruit bowl, and when she heard Yao Yi's words, she couldn't help but ask.
