Chapter 261: Awkward
After the New Year's Celebration, everyone couldn't hold it anymore, so they went back to their rooms to catch up on sleep.
Shang Xia pressed all the red envelopes he got under his pillow according to the habit at this time, and prepared to wait until the morning of the first day of the first lunar month to get up and read them.
Probably because today is Chinese New Year's Eve, after closing her eyes, she had a long, long dream, and everything that happened after the rebirth, and what happened before the rebirth, was intertwined in her dream.
She saw herself and Lin Ran holding hands walking at Huaqing University, but in a blink of an eye she was sitting in a wheelchair again, with a black and white photo frame in front of her, with a black cloth on top of the frame, as if someone had died.
Shang Xia couldn't see who the person in the photo was, but he knew that he was so sad that he couldn't even cry out loud.
Her chest seemed to be thrust into a large ball of cotton, she couldn't breathe, and her heart was pounding, as if the hot heart would jump out of her mouth at once.
Save me......
Help me......
"Xia Xia, Xia Xia, what's wrong with you? Don't scare your mother! ”
The whole world shook for a while, and Shang Xia struggled to open his eyes to find that Shang Xiaohe was looking at him with a worried expression.
"Mom......"
The voice that came out of the mouth was hoarse and terrifyingly low, and Shang Xiaohe hurriedly brought warm water to her to drink.
The warm hot water ran down my throat, and the stinging sensation finally lessened a lot.
"Mom, what's wrong with me?"
She struggled to sit up, but was stopped by Shang Xiaohe.
"Don't get up, lie down and rest for a while. It was probably last night's vigil that you couldn't even hold it, so I had nightmares and cried and screamed and scared me. ”
Shang Xiaohe held her daughter's hand tightly, feeling distressed.
"I'm fine, maybe I didn't sleep enough last night, don't worry......"
The dream was terrifyingly real, and although she couldn't remember the exact contents, she could still feel the lingering fear in her beating heart.
She also had nightmares like this when she was just reborn, and when she woke up, she couldn't tell the difference between reality and dreams.
But since the college entrance examination, she has rarely dreamed of the past, is it really because she heard the classic "Meet in 1998" yesterday?
"Xia Xia, no matter when, tell your mother when you're unwell?"
Shang Xiaohe took a hot towel to wipe the cold sweat off her forehead, and told her seriously.
Now the two of them are far away, they rarely see each other, and her daughter never says bad things on the phone, and she says everything every time, which makes her very worried.
Hearing Shang Xiaohe mention being sick, Shang Xia couldn't help but think of what Chen Yougui said before about pretending to be sick.
"Mom, you are in such a hurry to come over this time, did Lin Ran tell you that I was sick?"
Thinking of her mother saying that she was not going to come, and then suddenly coming so quickly, she had to think in this direction.
Shang Xiaohe's eyes dodged, and he stood up and wrung out the handkerchief and hung it up.
"Bah, don't say such unlucky things in the New Year!"
Seeing this, Shang Xia already knew the answer, and couldn't help but darken his eyes.
Sick......
How could Lin Ran say that she was sick?
Since their mother's divorce, the two of them have relied on each other for so many years, and even married Chen Yougui because they wanted to give her a complete family.
Shang Xia didn't even need to use his brain, he knew that after Shang Xiaohe got the news, he couldn't eat at home and couldn't sleep.
But she didn't know anything, and she was even excited that her mother said that she could come over for the New Year together!
Shang Xia knew that Lin Ran was so that she could concentrate on the winter vacation class, so he didn't blame him, but blamed himself vigorously.
"Xia Xia, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, you are not allowed to think nonsense, have you heard it, my mother will bring you dumplings in."
After eating dumplings according to custom, Shang Xia ate a total of three coins.
Shang Xiaohe happily wrapped the three coins in red paper and put them under her pillow.
"This year must be rich in wealth, everything goes well, you child, you are blessed to be young."
You can't use a broom on the first day of the first lunar month, and legend has it that this will sweep away the year's wealth.
Although this is only the way it is said by the older generation, it has been preserved as a custom in their homes.
On this day, everyone sat at home watching TV, eating melon seeds and peanuts, and saying some intimate words.
"Xia Xia, I have discussed it with a few of your aunts, and I will go home after the third day of the first lunar month."
After dinner in the evening, Shang Xiaohe suddenly spoke.
Shang Xiaxiu's eyebrows twisted slightly, and a burst of reluctance and sadness surged in her heart.
It's okay for me to get used to being here before, but this time the two of them stayed together for more than ten days, and she even had the illusion that she and her mother would always live together like this.
"There are still relatives at home who need to go for a walk, and I don't feel at ease when your Uncle Chen has been at home alone for so long. But in the future, my mother will definitely come to see you when she is free. ”
Shang Xiaohe hugged her daughter tightly, and her heart was also empty.
At the moment when the two of them snuggled up, she even remembered what Shang Xia had said before, let her stay in Beijing to develop.
But thinking that Chen Yougui accepted their mother and daughter under such circumstances, she had to be ruthless.
Shang Xia also nodded after a period of entanglement, "Well, I'll send you ...... then."
I am already an adult, and I should no longer let my mother worry.
Because she knew that her mother was leaving, she took Shang Xiaohe around her school for the next two days, and told her many interesting things that happened during her class time.
But there is no such thing as a feast in the world, and soon the third day of junior high school will arrive.
A group of people carried large bags and small bags to send their families on the train, and then turned back, the original happy smile on their faces was gone.
The extra bed in the room was moved back to its original place by Huang Biao, and for a while, in the room where there were originally three high and low beds, only Shang Xia was left with a big bed.
On the night of the third year of junior high school, she said early that she was sleepy and went into the room, hugged the quilt that her mother had covered before, the pillow she had slept on, smelled the unique fragrance of soap on her mother's body, and fell asleep peacefully.
On February 4th, the Shanglin Education Winter Vacation Training Class resumed classes, and every student came to school happily wearing brand new clothes.
This lively atmosphere diluted the sadness in Shang Xia's heart, and he soon rejoined the new round of battle.
In the last big test before the end of the winter vacation training class, everyone made big or small progress, especially Luo Yuwen and Meng Shuisheng.
Shang Xia took the summary table of the two branches, looked at the progress curve of the two people, and couldn't help but be amazed.
Huang Biao sat opposite her and told about Meng Shuisheng's side with his eyebrows fluttering.
"Yesterday, his grandmother and mother came to the school and brought a lot of things made at home to the teachers. And that little rabbit cub, who took this report card and told me that he would be my little brother soon. ”
The people in the office burst into laughter.
"Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise such a good seedling would have been wasted because of family conflicts."
"This child's progress is indeed very scary, which proves that he deliberately did not answer the questions properly. But now that everything is going in a good direction, according to the current trend, he will definitely be able to get into a good university. ”
The teachers were excitedly discussing, after all, their school could produce a student who had made such a great progress, and they were also proud and proud to be teachers.
In such a busy and fulfilling life, the winter vacation training class is finally over, and at the same time, it is time for Huaqing University to register.
Because the tuition fee at the university is paid on an academic year basis, they just take their student ID and go to the counselor's office to sign and get their stamp stamped.
As the class leader, Lin Ran got the class schedule for the new school year after reporting.
Shang Xia saw that there were indeed physical education courses that could be elective.
"Eh, there's actually a Sanda class! Sounds amazing, I'm going to take this! ”
Xiao Linlin pointed to the sanda on the class schedule and said excitedly, Shang Xia also smiled and said that she also planned to take this class.
This winter vacation, all kinds of physical reactions are telling her that her physical fitness has deteriorated, which is absolutely intolerable, so she is determined to exercise well.
"How can this kind of shouting, fighting, shouting and killing be without your brother Zong?"
Zong Yueqing pressed one arm on Xiao Linlin's shoulder and said coolly, and even Dong Wenyue joined in the fun.
Lin Anan naturally couldn't take such an intense class because of his physical reasons, so he decided to take another relatively simple and easy course with Lin Ran.
Lin Ran watched Lin An'an draw a tick behind the course he had chosen before, and his neck stiffened.
He chose that one because the students would be busy and wanted to have more time.
But after seeing Lin An'an choose this, he instantly remembered what his mother had said to him before.
You can't let Xia Xia misunderstand......
He silently changed his class to Sanda class when he finally reported it.
Three days later, Lin Anan looked at the final list of course selections, and couldn't help but purse his lips and turn pale.
"What's wrong?"
Shang Xia asked worriedly, looking up at the list posted on the door of the classroom.
Soon she noticed that Lin Ran had taken the same course as herself, and she immediately understood why Lin Anan reacted this way.
"An An, you ......"
"I'm fine, recently the doctor said that my physical condition is not very good, I am going to apply to the counselor to be exempted from physical education class, at first I was worried that Lin Ran was there alone, but now it's fine, haha......"
Lin Anan smiled a little reluctantly, and Shang Xia didn't know how to comfort her for a while.
Lin Anan didn't talk much for the next whole day, kept silently writing notes and eating, and didn't even say a word to her when she was walking.
"Xia Xia, are you arguing? What do I think is not quite right between you and An An? ”
While washing, Dong Wenyue lowered her voice and asked quietly.
These two people haven't spoken since they returned to the dormitory, and Lin Anan didn't even fill the hot water bottle today.
"No, it's just that she's not feeling well today, so she doesn't want to talk."
Shang Xia returned with a smile and glanced back at Lin An'an, who had already laid down to sleep, with some concern.
No, I have to talk to Lin Ran about this when I go back...... I want to talk about "Rebirth 1996" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
