In the blink of an eye, it's Christmas, there are no classes at school, everyone is busy with the evening party, some people are making masks for themselves, some people are preparing for the evening performance, and the campus is playing music like the Golden Hook Gang all day long, and the atmosphere is very joyful. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the evening, everyone went to a hotel designated by the school as promised, almost every year, each person took out fifty yuan, the school went to find a hotel, brought all the students and teachers together, that night, there was no teacher-student relationship, only infinite joy, everyone performed the program at will, whether it was good or bad, it would usher in warm applause, the food and wine were all enough, and it would not disperse until the early hours of the morning, and the dormitory would not lock the door that night, so that students could play crazy and exchange gifts, Because after that day, it should be a week-long final exam......
I found Huang Mengying in the crowd, she sat with a few girls in the same class and chatted, with a delicate gift box in front of her, a fiery red dress, showing her graceful figure, I looked at her from a distance, and took out the pre-prepared gift from my pocket, which I took the time to buy during the day, it was the necklace she fancied that day, fortunately I participated in Mr. Xu's matter, otherwise where would I get the money to buy such an expensive gift. At this time, I heard the host on the stage say: "Please Huang Mengying of the Dance Department!" There was a roar of applause between the tables, and I turned my head to see her slowly walking to the front, sitting down in front of the piano, and playing a song elegantly, cheerful and beautiful, and at the end of the song, she stood up and saluted everyone. According to the regulations, every student who goes to the performance can give their own gifts on the stage, in front of everyone, she stood in front, holding her gift tightly, nervous and shy, blushing and unable to speak for a long time, the host asked, which classmate are you going to give your gift to? I watched her red ears, I sat in the chair and didn't dare to move, my heart didn't seem to beat, I don't know if she was going to give it to me, I was afraid that she didn't give it to me but I was afraid that it was given to me, I was entangled and nervous, I was at a loss for a while, she stood there, it seemed that time had stood still, and the host asked in order to ease the atmosphere: "Is this person you want to give a gift to your professional?" Huang Mengying stumbled and said, "No! He is ......" There were several sighs from the audience, and then the host encouraged everyone to say: "Who do you think it was given to?" Let's guess together? Someone in the audience began to shout out various names, Huang Mengying shook her head to deny it, and none of the four or five names made her nod, and then Da Fei next to me shouted: "Dachuan, Department of Fine Arts!" This time she nodded! I was coaxed and pushed to the stage by Da Fei, my old face was also red, I was a thin-skinned person since I was a child, but now that the arrow is on the bow, I know that it is time to show manliness, it has been determined that it is for me, I am still shy and fart, snatched the gift box from her hand, and then told her that I also have a gift for her, I took out the necklace box, handed it to her, and then pulled her back to the seat. Another student performance program went up on the stage, everyone's eyes were quickly attracted to it, Huang Mengying held the necklace box, lowered her head, I urged her to open it to see, after she opened it, I saw her eyes red, crying and laughing and said to me: "How can you buy me such an expensive gift?" I scratched my head and said, "I'll bring it for you......" She had been wearing the necklace since that day and hadn't taken it off for a long time, and I held her gift and asked, "Can I open it and see it?" She nodded, and I opened the box, and it was a black and white scarf that was not only around my neck, but also around my heart......
This is how my first love began, a beautiful and simple love, and now in retrospect, there is an indescribable taste in the position of my chest, warm and sour......
That Christmas I got out of the life of a single dog, that night we walked back to school, that night it snowed, it was beautiful, the snow on the ground under the street lamp flashed and glowed, that night it was not cold at all, that night I held a girl's hand for the first time, I knew there was a feeling called electric shock, that night we held hands and walked all the way, that night we had endless words, I wish time could stop forever on that day......
The seven-day exam passed quickly, we were all busy with the exams of various subjects, these days only every night with Huang Mengying will have a meal in the cafeteria, she has eaten less these days, saying that she is afraid that eating too much will affect the performance, every time we only order one meal, she eats a small bite of food, and I will wrap up the rest!
On the last day of the exam, Liu Yu mysteriously asked me if I had time at night? His master wants to see us. As soon as I mentioned his master, I remembered the last time I made a small house for Mr. Xu, and thought that wouldn't it be nice if I could make some money during the holidays! I just said yes to him, and now that I think about it, it may have been a turning point in my fate......
After dinner in the evening, I followed Liu Yu to his master's house again, his master was still wearing the same white Chinese suit, and like last time, his master was sitting at the table, and the two of us were sitting side by side on the sofa.
The old man took an unhurried puff of his pipe and asked, "Is the exam over?" The tone was stern but caring. The two of us nodded, and Liu Yu spoke: "Yes, Master, we have all finished the exams, and tomorrow will be the day to officially leave the school." ”
His master nodded slightly and continued to speak: "You did a good job of Mr. Xu's matter last time. Two days ago, a Shenzhen victim contacted me, hoping that I could personally go to help him solve something, would you two like to go together? Okawa has unusual eyes, and I hope you can help me this time! It just so happens that you can also increase your experience, and you and Xiaoyu will help each other in the future. You don't have to worry about the cost or anything, you will be rewarded according to your merits after the deed! ”
The old man has already talked about this, how can I refuse? I'm so happy to hear that I'm making money, if I can make a thousand eight hundred dollars and travel again, why not? But I didn't want his master to think that I was a greedy person, so I stood up and said to him, "Sir, you are so polite, I have the honor to help you deal with things, I can't ask for it, I wish you could show me more knowledge!" Later, I slowly learned that I was still young and ignorant, what a good thing money is, why should I flaunt myself that money is like dung, so that people feel hypocritical, it is better to put money on the surface and talk about reality.
The old man nodded, "You tell the family in advance, don't let the family worry." ”
Leaving his master's house, I couldn't help but ask Liu Yu with questions in my heart: "Do you know what the matter is?" Why do you want to take the two of us? Liu Yu shook his head and said, "When you get to the place, you will naturally know!" But there is one thing that I am quite strange, my master can open the eyes of heaven and can see within the six realms, but there is a reason why he does this! ”
After that, I called my dad and told him that my classmates had helped me find a part-time job and might go back during the Chinese New Year, but I didn't tell him that far away and didn't say what he did. My dad was overjoyed when he heard this, saying that it was a good thing for boys to have more knowledge, and said that I had grown up and knew that I had worked hard. I didn't dare to say too much, after all, it was the first time I had such a big panic with my family, and I was still a little weak-hearted.
The next day, I sent Huang Mengying to the station, and when I left, I said goodbye like all little couples, what would I miss you......
