On the gray cement roadside, the flowers and plants are withered, the trees are withered, and only the little sparrows bring a touch of jumping liveliness in the slaughtering winter day like a scattered little black bean.

Halfway through the ride with the sixth child, Shi Jiaojiao stopped the car, ripped off the scarf and handed it to the sixth child, "You wear it!" The sixth man held the hot scarf and said, "I'm hiding behind you and it's not cold." Shi Jiaojiao looked at the purple lips of the sixth child after losing her lipstick, touched her cold nose, and said, "I'm riding too hot, you see, a neck is sweaty." Lao Liuzhen came over to take a look, and Shi Jiaojiao picked up the scarf and helped her wrap it up. She looked at the sixth child, patted her curly hair, and said, "It's so beautiful." ”

The bicycle drove slowly on the empty concrete road, and the sixth child wrapped his arms around Shi Jiaojiao's waist and tried his best to get close to her, "This way we are all warm, and you don't feel heavy to ride." Shi Jiaojiao smiled, "Yes, the center of gravity is close." The sixth took a deep breath, looked at the blue and white sky, and hummed a song out of tune in his mouth.

"Jiaojiao, look!" The sixth child shouted excitedly, bluffing Shi Jiaojiao almost couldn't control the bicycle, and the sixth child was still shouting: "Look, there is a magpie in that tree that wants to make a nest!" Shi Jiaojiao looked up, and sure enough, in the poplar branches, there was a magpie holding a branch, which was probably noisy by the sixth child, and he flew away with the branch after two strokes on the selected branch.

Shi Jiaojiao stretched out her hand and stuffed back the bag belt hanging out of the car basket, and asked the sixth child: "Feifei, what kind of person is the 'little apple' you have been talking about in the letter?" The corners of Lao Liu's mouth raised and said, "She is a person who is almost as good as you." She was the first in the class to talk to me, and we ended up in a dorm. I was scared to leave home for the first time, and when I was homesick, she didn't laugh at me and stayed with me. ”

"Well, that's nice." Shi Jiaojiao responded flatly, the sixth still has endless words, although she told Shi Jiaojiao in the letter, the sixth said: "The eight girls in our dormitory are all very good, go to class together, go to the cafeteria, go shopping and buy clothes together......" "Then they picked out your clothes for you?" "Well, they all say it's good-looking. There is another one, which I will wear for you during the New Year. ”

In fact, Shi Jiaojiao didn't want to know this, she wanted to know if there were bad children among these people, if there were legendary sisters, and if anyone had a boyfriend casually...... But she couldn't ask, she understood that as soon as she spoke, she and the sixth child would be finished. So she could only nod and smile to the sixth child.

Shi Jiaojiao didn't answer the sixth child's words, and the sixth child didn't know if she was willing to listen to it, so the two of them were inexplicably silent. Riding near Shi Jiaojiao's house, riding for about ten minutes, almost to the fork in the road of the sixth grandfather's house, the sixth suddenly leaned his face on Shi Jiaojiao's back, and asked sullenly: "Jiaojiao, are you angry?" ”

A thin gust of wind drilled into Shi Jiaojiao's stamina, which made her shrink her neck. Hearing the familiar tone of the sixth child, Shi Jiaojiao suddenly felt extremely sad, she found that the sixth child was still the sixth child in the past, but she was not worthy of being her good friend.

"No, I said when I was a kid that you were my best friend, but we each have friends. I'm more relieved that someone can take care of you! When Shi Jiaojiao said this, tears were about to flow. The weight from the sixth child's head pressing against his back increased a little, and Shi Jiaojiao straightened up so that she could lean comfortably.

When she got home, it was still early, Shi Jiaojiao drank a glass of boiling water and planned to write her winter vacation homework, but before she could decide which subject to write first, her mother called her name at the door. Shi Jiaojiao went out and saw her mother walking towards the kitchen with a plastic bag of coarse salt in her hand. Shi Jiaojiao wondered: "Mom, why did you come back so early?" Is there an annual holiday so early this year? Mother Shi returned from the kitchen: "What is it! The day before yesterday, the goods were shipped overnight, and there was nothing to do today, so I came back early and pickled the herring sent by your Uncle Niu's house. There is still a batch of goods to leave before the year, but it is a small batch, and it will be a holiday on the 24th of the lunar month. ”

Shi Jiaojiao nodded, and suddenly thought that Chen Li should also get off work, so she shouted: "Ah, wouldn't you be able to eat fish head soup and crispy fried fish tail that night?" I'll call Lili and Fei Fei, okay, Mom? Shi's mother changed her clothes and was already killing fish, so she said hard: "Fei Fei is back?" Yes! However, when I got off work, I met Fei Fei's eldest cousin, saying that their family invited her brother to dinner in the evening, and I guess she would not come. When Shi Jiaojiao heard this, she nodded silently, pushed out the bicycle, and said, "Then I'll go and call Lili." ”

When she first arrived at the door of Chen Li's house, Chen Li just pushed the car out of the courtyard gate, Shi Jiaojiao didn't have time to say hello, Chen Li was stopped by the grandmother in the yard, the old man chased Chen Li to the front of the car with a bag of vegetables in his hand, and said in a chatter: "This Shanghai green, the frost has been so sweet, you bring some over!" Chen Li said impatiently: "Wow, who doesn't have a green vegetable yet, I will chop some lo-mei from the village center." "Lo-mei is lo-mei, vegetables are dish, you won't be tired!" “……”

The two of them were pushing me, but they were interrupted by Shi Jiaojiao's "grandma", and the grandparents and grandchildren both turned their heads to look at Shi Jiaojiao. The old man laughed and said, "It's just in time, I say what is good for you two!" Can't say. She won't take it, so she puts it in your car crate. Shi Jiaojiao looked at Qingcai for a while, "What is this for?" Lili is going out? Chen Li came over with a cart, patted the vegetables and smiled at her grandmother, and said, "I'm going to your house!" What are you doing here? "I'm here to call you to my house for dinner." "Haha, let's go!"

The yellow light of the incandescent lamp warmly illuminated the dining table, a plate of stewed vegetables with lard residue, a large plate of tofu fish head, and a plate of red and bright braised pig's mouth...... Chen Li stretched out her hand to catch the steaming crispy fried fish tail brought by Shi's mother, and said continuously: "Auntie, there are too many!" Don't get it, let's have dinner together! Mother Shi smiled and said, "You eat first, it's nothing, I'll make a dip in the juice." After her mother sat down, Shi Jiaojiao raised the boiling water and shouted, "Cheers!" The three of them smiled and raised their glasses to dinner.

Chen Li pinched a large piece of fish head and said to Shi's mother: "Wow, auntie, are you particularly annoyed on the assembly line, who is playing the clothes of the board?" Mother Shi took a sip of soup and said: "Everyone annoys her, she doesn't talk a lot and does things beautifully, I don't know how many defective products have flowed down!" "I've been going to the mechanic lately, have you found out what I made?" "I found it, your goods are beautiful, there are few threads, and the car is positive"......

Shi Jiaojiao listened to the two of them crackling about the things in the factory, and she became more and more unable to interject, so she immediately pretended to cough dryly, and the old god said: "You two are okay, and it's not in front of the little factory director." If you are so dedicated, you will be given a certificate? Chen Li laughed when she heard this, Shi's mother poked her daughter's head and said with a smile: "It's amazing, it's very stingy!" Forget about her and get angry. ”

"Yes, yes, you two are colleagues now, and I'm irrelevant." Shi Jiaojiao followed her mother's words and smiled. Chen Li scooped a spoonful of soup and asked, "Did Fei Fei go outside to study?" "Yes, I went to a neighboring county to study for a five-year junior college." "I thought I was going to vocational school!" "No, junior college." "Oh, is she coming back for the New Year this year?" "I'm back this morning."

Chen Li put down the spoon, asked "really", and then said: "Why didn't you call, I will have to work overtime until the Chinese New Year!" Shi Jiaojiao looked at her mother and said, "She has wine to eat at home today!" The New Year is always there. Chen Li nodded and whispered, "I still want to see you sooner, it's been too long!" ”

Shi Jiaojiao looked at Chen Li's face, and her mind floated to the appearance of the sixth child during the day, and then thought of what Xia Lei said, "Look at what Lili said!" A shadow couldn't help but float in her heart, she thought about it, and said with a dry smile: "Fei Fei is fashionable now, and she looks good." When Chen Li heard this, she smiled and said, "Really? I'd like to see it even more! But our Fei Fei is good-looking, and she is very pure! Shi Jiaojiao scratched her head, smiled awkwardly, and then picked up a piece of fish tail and put it in her mouth, without answering Chen Li's words.

Chen Li didn't pay attention, looked up at Shi Jiaojiao, and said, "Hey, you want to get the final summary, right?" Shi Jiaojiao nodded and said with a smile: "Do you remember? Chen Li rolled her eyes and replied: "Anyway, I have even been a student in kindergarten for more than ten years!" Shi Jiaojiao stuck out her tongue and echoed: "Yes, yes, yes!" Go and get the transcript the day after tomorrow. ”
