Chapter 33: The Countdown Begins
At the end of June, the results of the high school entrance examination came out, Ruan Yue scored more than 500 points in the exam, and applied for the No. 4 Middle School in City A, but the school was too far away from home, and there were nearly two hours in the middle, so she needed to live in the school.
At first, Ruan's mother still disagreed, she wanted Ruan Yue to apply for a school close to home, but Ruan Yue insisted on going to the fourth middle school, and finally said that she still signed up.
Not long after Ruan Yu's summer vacation began, Ruan Yue was clamoring to go to Linshi with her classmates to play, of course Ruan's mother disagreed, thinking that she was still young, it was not safe to go out, and she was not at ease with her classmates.
In contrast, Ruan Yu's life is much calmer, and after graduating from the sixth grade, she has no summer homework, and she has to practice the piano every day, so she can correct it more than before and go to Meng Jiayue.
However, Meng Jiayue has been learning table tennis recently, and she has to go to the sports center to practice every day, Ruan Yu has to follow Meng Jiayue to the sports center in addition to practicing the piano, as for calligraphy, she writes at night, and it has no effect during the day.
It takes nearly an hour to go to the sports center by car, Ruan Yu is already sick, although Uncle Meng drives to pick him up, but Ruan Yu is the most dizzy car, running back and forth every day, the stomach can't bear it, and he has diarrhea and can't eat, and his tortured face is yellow.
And Meng Jiayue usually goes in the afternoon, the sun is so hot in summer that Ruan Yu loses her nap time, and the whole person is listless, and she can't lift her energy to watch Meng Jiayue play.
It didn't take long for Meng Jiayue to change places to play, in a table tennis club opened by Uncle Meng's friend, the club is close to home, and it only takes about ten minutes to walk, Ruan Yu finally doesn't have to suffer from motion sickness, and there is less time spent on the road, she can also take a nap at noon.
Another thing is that Ruan Yu's hair has grown, the bangs can already cover her eyes, a thick layer, it is hot in summer, she sweats straight on her forehead, but she always forgets to go to the barber shop to cut it.
Finally, Ruan's mother couldn't stand it anymore, so when she went out for a walk at night, she took Ruan Yu to the barbershop, and after her request, the barber cut a pot lid and came out.
Ruan Yu felt that it was not bad, and ran to Meng Jiayue to see his new hairstyle.
Meng Jiayue didn't see it first, but Aunt Chen, who opened the door, saw it first, and didn't speak for a long time. Ruan Yu's face was originally fleshy, although her previous hairstyle was ugly, but it was not so big as to show her face, but this time the pot lid was cut, but it directly doubled her face, and it was almost like a ball.
"Little Elm." Aunt Chen cautiously asked, "Where did you cut this hairstyle?" ”
Ruan Yu didn't notice anything, and said happily: "I cut it at the gate of the community." ”
There are a total of two barber shops at the entrance of the community, and Aunt Chen has been there, but she really didn't know that it could be cut like this, so she asked Ruan Yu again: "There are two at the entrance of the community!" Which one is it? ”
"That's it...... The one on the right. ”
Aunt Chen nodded, and decided not to go to that house next time to cut her hair, otherwise she would also cut her into a pot cover, it would be really ugly and impossible to see people.
Just as Meng Jiayue came out of the house, he was stunned for a moment when he saw Ruan Yu, and asked, "Who gave you the haircut?" ”
"Is it cut at the entrance of the community, is it beautiful?" Ruan Yu rushed over excitedly, deliberately letting Meng Jiayue see his new hairstyle clearly.
Meng Jiayue nodded, and said without changing his face: "It looks good, I will cut it like this next time." ”
As soon as the words came out, Uncle Meng turned the page of the newspaper vigorously, and looked at Ruan Yu with the eyes hidden behind the newspaper, and felt that it was better for him not to comment.
Aunt Chen also couldn't directly say that the hairstyle was ugly, so she could only glare at Meng Jiayue, and said in a corner: "Xiaoyu, let's change the hairstyle next time, you can't always cut the same hairstyle There are many hairstyles that look better than this." ”
It's a pity that Ruan Yu couldn't hear the meaning of Aunt Chen's words, she listened to whatever Meng Jia said, and Meng Jiayue understood, so he looked at Aunt Chen and pulled Ruan Yu to his room.
Meng Jiayue bought a new copy of "How Steel is Trained" a few days ago, Ruan Yu had only read a few chapters before, although she didn't understand it at her age, but she was about to finish reading it after reading it, so as soon as she arrived in the house, she took the book off the shelf.
Meng Jiayue also has an air conditioner in the house, but he doesn't turn it on often, he is bored, and he usually turns it on when Ruan Yu comes. Usually, as long as the door is open in his house, the cold air of the central air conditioner in the living room will blow in, although the temperature is not enough for the hot weather in summer, but it is enough for Meng Jiayue.
Now that the air conditioner is on, the heat in the house has slowed down a lot in a short time. Ruan Yu sat on the bed with a book in her hand, her white feet were still swaying back and forth, and the pink rabbit sandals on her feet were specially bought for her by Aunt Chen.
Ruan Yu sat and watched for a while, then took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed, spread the book on the pillow, and she read it on her stomach with her feet crossed.
Meng Jiayue opened a bag of plums and put it in her hand, and kicked the trash can to the side of the bed so that she could throw the core.
Normally, Meng Jiayue himself would never lie on the bed to eat, but Ruan Yu was an exception, he could tolerate it infinitely, and even break the rules by himself.
While Ruan Yu was reading, Meng Jiayue changed into pajamas, went to the inside of the bed to lie down, and patted Ruan Yu's buttocks by the way, asking her to move outside.
Looking at the book, Ruan Yu suddenly shouted, "Meng Jiayue." ”
"Hmm."
"Do you think my sister is in love?"
Meng Jiayue was a little surprised, he could actually hear the word love from Ruan Yu's mouth, so he didn't pay attention to Ruan Yue what Ruan Yu said for the first time, but asked her: "Do you know what it means to fall in love?" ”
"Yes!" Ruan Yu nodded, sat up and said to him with great interest: "Isn't the little wolf just liking Sakura, isn't that just falling in love." ”
Meng Jiayue searched for the cartoons Ruan Yu had watched in his memory, and locked on the target "Magic Card Girl Sakura".
Ruan Yu grabbed Meng Jiayue's arm and continued, "Do you know? Ruan Yue always runs out, I asked my mother to buy her a mobile phone before, and then she texts people every day, the mobile phone screen is still on at night, and she hides in the bed and laughs. ”
"Well, and then what?"
"One time I heard her talking on the phone at night, and it was a boy's voice." Ruan Yu tilted her head and thought for a while, her eyes swept away, and when she saw the bag of words next to the pillow, she remembered that she hadn't eaten yet.
She reached out and pinched one, fed it to Meng Jiayue first, and then ate it herself, but as soon as Hua Mei entered, Ruan Yu's face wrinkled, and she hurriedly lay on the side of the bed and spit out Hua Mei into the trash.
"It's so sour!" Ruan Yu stuck out her tongue and said to Meng Jiayue vaguely while taking a toffee from the sugar box.
Meng Jiayue still had the word plum in his mouth, and said strangely when he heard it: "I don't eat sour!" ”
"It's just sour." Ruan Yu said unreasonably.
"Okay, sour." Meng Jia coaxed her, got up and asked, "Do you eat seaweed?" ”
Ruan Yu nodded, and Meng Jiayue got out of bed and rummaged in the cabinet for a while, taking a bag of seaweed and two snow rice crackers.
Ruan Yu watched Meng Jiayue tear open the seaweed bag and continued the previous topic: "Although my sister is already in high school, this is early love!" If my mother found out, she would definitely scold her. ”
"It's none of your business, just watch." Meng Jiayue pinched a piece of seaweed and fed her.
Ruan Yu thought about it and felt that it was the same, but she was still a little uneasy in her heart, she was in the same room with Ruan Yue every day, and she still knew a lot about Ruan Yue. Selfishness, love to take advantage of small advantages, bad temper, if you talk about shortcomings, Ruan Yu can say a lot, but if there is really something that makes Ruan Yu particularly dislike her, it doesn't seem to be, because under normal circumstances, Ruan Yue treats her very well.
"Ruan Yue is very bold." After thinking about it for a long time, Ruan Yu and Meng Jiayue said so.
"I know." Meng Jiayue lay down on the bed, closed her eyes and said, "When you didn't come yet, once she was scolded by your father, and then packed up her things and ran away from home in the middle of the night, making everyone know about this floor." ”
Ruan Yu didn't know about this, she hurriedly asked: "What did my father scold her?" ”
"I don't know."
Ruan Yu didn't ask again, but said to herself: "My dad likes to scold people around the bush the most, it's very ugly, Ruan Yue has cried many times by him." ”
"Do you mean Sang scolding Huai?" Meng Jiayue didn't open his eyes, and said casually when he heard Ruan Yu's description.
"What do you mean by Sang scolding Huai?" Ruan Yu hadn't heard this idiom, so she pushed Meng Jiayue and asked.
"The idiom is also one of the thirty-six strategies, which means that on the surface it is scolding this person, but in fact it is scolding that person." Speaking of this, Meng Jiayue suddenly remembered again and asked Ruan Yu: "Haven't you watched "Fu Five Rats"? That's what it says. ”
Because of Ruan Yu, Meng Jiayue was either forced or took the initiative to watch a lot of cartoons together, pointing out that Sang scolded Huai He also knew it from the cartoon "Fu Five Rats", why didn't Ruan Yu remember?
"I've almost forgotten all the thirty-six schemes." Ruan Yu smiled embarrassedly: "I just remember to go to the top, the beauty plan, the secret of the world, the serial plan, oh, by the way, there is also a plan to save Zhao from Wei and the empty city." ”
Meng Jiayue sat up and rubbed it vigorously on her head, and couldn't help laughing: "Let's go back and take a closer look!" ”
"Okay." Ruan Yu lowered her head and replied weakly.
"Not happy?"
"Nope." Ruan Yu's head shook like a rattle, and said: "I just forgot all the thirty-six strategies, I feel that the animation has been watched in vain, and you still remember it." ”
"It's easy to remember." Meng Jiayue smiled, and said the method in Ruan Yu's curious gaze: "Today's calligraphy has been practiced, so it doesn't count, from tomorrow, you copy each of the thirty-six tricks thirty times to ensure that you can remember it." ”
"Nope." Ruan Yu refused without thinking about it, if she really copied it thirty times each, she estimated that her hands would be invalid.
"Why not." Meng Jiayue analyzed for her: "You see that you have to practice writing every day, what you write is not writing, and it is not for you to write in one day, you can write slowly, not only practice words, but also remember the thirty-six strategies." ”
"It seems so." Ruan Yu nodded, figured out the joints, and immediately said to Meng Jiayue: "Okay, I'll write thirty-six plans from tomorrow." ”
Meng Jiayue smiled with satisfaction, and added: "By the way, I also copied their notes, not much, thirty times." ”
