Chapter Ninety-Seven: Photographs
Ruan Yu didn't see Zhang Xuemin originally, and she only looked at her when she heard Meng Jiayue speak, but she didn't remember a few of her classmates in elementary school, and she had long forgotten what the people in the grade looked like at that time, and the only thing she remembered was only one name.
Seeing the owner of this name again, Ruan Yu couldn't help but turn her head to look at Meng Jiayue, because with her understanding of beauty, Zhang Xuemin was quite good-looking.
With an oval face, double eyelids, and long straight black, he wears a floral dress with a long thin knitted jacket and a pair of white canvas shoes on his feet. Ruan Yu likes the overall match very much, it feels very fresh, but it is the kind she can't match, and the most important thing is that Zhang Xuemin is so thin, not as fat as her.
Therefore, suddenly, she had a feeling of unhappiness, similar to envy, jealousy and hatred, so she began to make trouble in her heart, obviously she didn't remember what Zhang Xuemin looked like, Meng Jiayue could still recognize people.
Then Ruan Yu thought that they had a relationship when they were in elementary school, and the more they thought about it, the more unhappy they became, but what made Ruan Yu unhappy the most was that Zhang Xuemin obviously didn't recognize who she was.
Zhang Xuemin really didn't have much impression of Ruan Yu, in fact, even when they were in elementary school, they basically had no intersection, and the only direct contact was the change of seats.
And Ruan Yu's sense of existence in elementary school was not strong, and the gap with her current is even greater, so she only regarded Ruan Yu as the girlfriend of Meng Jiayue, who she didn't know, and she mainly talked to Meng Jiayue: "You also come here to play?" ”
"Well, are you on your own?" Meng Jiayue glanced around her, and didn't see a character that looked like her friend, so she was slightly curious and asked casually.
Zhang Xuemin shook her head and smiled: "No, I came with my classmate, she went to the toilet, let me wait for her here for a while." ”
"Oh, then I'll go first, bye-bye." Meng Jiayue had no interest in talking to her more, and ended the topic in one sentence.
"Bye-bye." Zhang Xuemin waved his hand.
After the two said goodbye to each other, Meng Jiayue was just about to leave, Zhang Xuemin's friend came back, compared to Zhang Xuemin, his appearance is much worse, but he is very tall, slightly taller than Ruan Yu.
As soon as she came, she glanced at Meng Jiayue several times, and it was too blatant at first, but after she found out, she changed to look secretly, and the more excited the expression on her face became, and she couldn't help but turn back when she walked over.
A few steps away, she could still hear her and Zhang Xuemin saying things like handsome, which made Ruan Yu look at Meng Jiayue strangely, thinking that there was a problem with her aesthetics and she didn't correctly recognize Meng Jiayue's handsomeness, or that person overestimated Meng Jiayue's handsomeness.
"What do you see me doing?" After being stared at by her several times in a row, Meng Jiayue finally couldn't help but ask.
"Aren't you particularly handsome?" Ruan Yu asked with a serious face.
Meng Jiayue laughed out loud when he heard this, and coughed a few times before he said in a half-ring, "Why do you ask that?" ”
"Zhang Xuemin and her classmates are so excited, and she is not the only one, there have been before." Ruan Yu tilted her head very puzzled, to be honest, so far, the only thing that made her heart move to think handsome was the four generations of Hokage Wave Feng Shui Gate in "Naruto".
"I think I'm pretty handsome." Meng Jiayue replied as he pressed Ruan Yu's head and rubbed it vigorously.
I saw Ruan Yu looking up at him stupidly and smiling, and then said, "Then I'm still quite lucky." ”
"Lucky?"
"That's right!" Ruan Yu blushed slightly and said, "My boyfriend is very handsome." ”
Meng Jiayue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then laughed and said to her: "My girlfriend is also very beautiful. ”
As soon as he said this, Ruan Yu's blushing level immediately rose again, and he was shy for a long time before carefully pulling Meng Jiayue's clothes to leave.
Meng Jiayue suddenly picked up Ruan Yu and turned around half a circle, you must know that there were people around, his action immediately caused the crowd to exclaim, and then before others could react, Meng Jiayue put Ruan Yu down and pulled her all the way away.
Almost when they ran to the exit of the east gate of the pedestrian street, they stopped, Ruan Yu was already too tired, bent over and held his knees and panted, but his smile never stopped, and his eyes were bright, faintly excited.
Before nightfall, Meng Jiayue pulled Ruan Yu to a wonton shop on the ancient street, and after eating the steaming wontons, the sky outside was already dark, and at the moment when they just stepped out of the store, the lanterns hanging under the eaves of the ancient buildings on both sides of the street were all lit up instantly.
"Wow!" Ruan Yu let out an exclamation and immediately ran to the middle of the road to look at the front and back of the street.
"Meng Jiayue, look, it's all lit up." Ruan Yu turned his head and grabbed Meng Jiayue, and excitedly pointed to the lantern and said to him. As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly heard the sound of music coming from her, and she immediately followed the sound to find it.
After walking for long, I saw a band sitting behind the railing on the second floor of an attic, the number of people was not large, Ruan Yu roughly counted, there were five people, generally at least forty years old, all wearing long robes, and playing traditional Chinese instruments.
Among them, Ruan Yu knew the musical instruments of the flute, erhu, and guzheng, and two others she didn't know, she dragged Meng Jiayue and asked, "What kind of instruments do they play?" ”
Meng Jiayue looked at it carefully and replied: "Guzheng, dulcimer, zhongruan, erhu, and xiao." ”
"Xiao?" Ruan Yu asked subconsciously.
"Playing the flute horizontally and blowing the flute vertically, blowing vertically." Meng Jiayue explained.
"Oh, I thought it was a flute." Ruan Yu scratched her head a little embarrassed.
Meng Jiayue looked at her and smiled dotingly, and stood down with her to listen for a while, until the song was played again upstairs after listening to it, and the two of them left.
After that, I bought two cups of drinks at the bubble tea shop, sat on the round table and rattan chairs placed near the water, and watched the black canopy boats slowly row over the river, the red lanterns on both sides of the river were like sparks, and the eaves and wooden windows under the reflection became hazy.
Ruan Yu propped her chin and looked at the stone bridge not far away, opened her mouth for a long time and took a sip of juice, turned to Meng Jiayue and said, "That, I have something I want to ask." ”
"What?" Meng Jiayue peeled off a petal of orange and fed it to her mouth.
"Why do you still recognize Zhang Xuemin? She didn't even recognize me. Ruan Yu was a little unclear when she spoke with an orange in her mouth, but Meng Jiayue understood.
He smiled and said, "Probably because I have a good memory, and I've seen elementary school graduation photos before." Speaking of which, do you know what you were like in elementary school? ”
Ruan Yu shook her head, she didn't ask for a primary school graduation photo at all, and she didn't want to remember those classmates at that time, as for what she looked like, naturally there were no photos to confirm.
"It's far worse than it is now." Meng Jiayue leaned on the back of the chair and looked at her for a while before saying, "To be honest, it's very rustic." ”
Ruan Yu bit her lip and was unhappy, and Meng Jiayue immediately continued: "It's just that at the beginning, it got much better later. Then there were changes after junior high school, but now compared to before, the biggest change is the same. When I looked at the photos, I thought that if I hadn't been with you all the time, I might not have recognized you. ”
"Is the change good or bad?" Ruan Yu asked him as she fiddled with the straw in the cup.
"Okay."
"Really?" Ruan Yu wanted to laugh the moment she heard the answer, but she couldn't help it, she looked at Meng Jiayue, and finally asked for another verification.
"Of course." Meng Jiayue said without hesitation.
Ruan Yu was completely relieved at this time, grinned and showed a big smile, happily picked up the juice, didn't need a straw, and drank it directly to the rim of the cup in one gulp.
Meng Jiayue took out a piece of paper to wipe her mouth, and asked, "Do you want to go to the bridge to have a look?" ”
Ruan Yu nodded immediately, and couldn't wait to stand up and wait for him to pass.
"Love bridges so much?" Meng Jiayue raised her hand to take care of her folded collar, and suddenly said, "I'll let you see a few photos when I go back." ”
"What photo?" Ruan Yu took out a piece of beef jerky from his pocket, peeled off the outer package and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Previous photos." Meng Jiayue replied, he lowered his head and took out his phone, turned on the camera, and then held it up to adjust the angle to the two of them.
