Chapter 3 Its leaves are strange and strange

My name is Ye Zhenzhen, my mother is a fanatic of the Book of Songs, I was born half a year later she found a good name for me in the Book of Songs, as long as there are relatives to come to my house as a guest, my mother always wants to show off the origin of my name, "Ye Zhenzhen's name, is taken from the "Book of Songs, Tao Yao" in the "Tao Yao" in the "Tao Zhi Yao, its Ye Zhen Zhen" This sentence symbolizes full of vitality and vitality! ”

Most of my relatives had never studied the Book of Songs, and they couldn't understand its meaning, so they could only awkwardly echo the phrase "get good."

When I was in kindergarten, my teachers often complimented me on my beautiful name, and I was proud of my meaningful name. But when I went to elementary school, I started to learn to write, because of the complicated strokes of names, writing names became my biggest trouble. In the final exam of the first grade Chinese, when it was time to collect the paper, I found that my name was not written, and when I struggled to write to the middle part of the character, the teacher ruthlessly confiscated my exam paper. On that final exam, I became the first student in my class to get a score of 0 for not writing the name of the paper, and I cried at home all winter during the winter break, asking my mother to change my name.

Of course my mother will not agree, she lied to me and said that her name was registered with the Public Security Bureau, and calling Ye Zhenzhen means that she is her daughter, if I change my name, I can no longer be her daughter, naΓ―ve and simple, I resolutely chose my great mother, and since then I have learned to write names seriously.

In the year of the high school entrance examination, I was admitted to Yangfan Middle School, a key high school in the city, with excellent results. My mom and dad were so happy that they almost went to the school gate to set off firecrackers. Naturally, I am also very happy, firstly, because in order to create a good learning environment for me, my parents decided to follow the example of Meng's mother and moved to the community near Yangfan Middle School, which is only a more than ten minute walk, of course I am very happy, which means that I can get up later every day.

The second is because my two childhood sweethearts' best friends, Gu Zijin and Gu Zipei, were also admitted to Yangfan Middle School.

My fate with them starts with my mother, my mother and their mother are classmates and avid fans of the Book of Songs, Gu Zijin and Gu Zipei's names are taken from "Qingqing Zijin, you your heart; Qingqingzi Pei, I think about it". My sisters and brothers of the Gu family and I were in the same class from elementary school to junior high school, and this time we were also in the same class.

Because of this rare fate, Gu Zijin and Gu Zipei dragged me to celebrate wildly on the rooftop of their house for one night, so much so that I overslept on the first day of school today! At this time, I stuffed buns in my mouth and rushed towards the school at a speed of 100 meters.

As soon as my left foot stepped into the school gate, the preparatory bell rang, and I just swallowed the last bite of the bun, and when I passed the guard room, the security guard was sitting at the door holding a late registration book, and I immediately stopped and nodded respectfully to him. Seeing that I was a freshman, he waved his hand and motioned for me to hurry up and go in. I instantly felt that the image of this school was even taller, so I took a determined step towards my class, the first (3rd) class.

When I ran to the door of the classroom, I quietly looked inside, but fortunately the head teacher did not come, and the students in the classroom were chatting one after another. I breathed a sigh of relief and walked generously to the door of the classroom, looking for my two best friends in the crowd.

"Zhenzhen, here and here."

I looked in the direction of the sound, Gu Zipei, who was sitting in the last row of the classroom, was excitedly waving his long arms at me, Gu Zijin sat next to him, and pointed to the empty place in the front row of her, indicating that it was my place.

I walked quickly towards them, muttering in my heart why Gu Zijin didn't sit with me. When I approached the seat, I noticed that there was a boy sitting next to me, lying on the table with his back to me, as if he was sleeping.

I threw Gu Zijin and Gu Zipei a look of "who is he", and the Gu family brothers spread their hands, saying that they didn't know. When I was hesitating to sit down, the head teacher Zhang Long walked in and shouted "Please be quiet", the originally noisy classroom suddenly quieted down, and I stood at the back of the classroom with my schoolbag very abrupt at the moment.

Zhang Long snorted at me and motioned for me to sit down. I looked around and saw that there were no more empty seats, so I had to sit down. I don't know if it's because Zhang Long's voice is too loud, or if the movement of me sitting down is too loud, the man sleeping on his stomach moved vividly, but he didn't get up.

"Students, we met yesterday when we reported, so I won't introduce myself today. Now give you a few minutes to get to know each other and your new classmates. Each of you has a copy of the "Yangfan Middle School Student Handbook" on your desk, so take a look at it carefully. ”

After Zhang Long finished speaking, the classmates began to whisper and introduce.

I turned around and whispered to Gu Zijin, "Why don't you sit with me?" And with such a position in the back row, I'm short-sighted! ”

"I overslept with Gu Zipei, and when I came, there were only these three positions left, I'm not afraid that you won't be able to see it, I'll leave the front row to you," as he spoke, Gu Zijin put his mouth to my ear, lowered his volume and continued, "I helped you observe, you are a handsome guy at the same table." Let's get acquainted, hehe. ”

I gave her a blank look and turned around. By this time, my table mate had woken up and sat up straight, looking at me with sleepy eyes. Gu Zijin is really a handsome guy identifier, although he is not very handsome, but he is quite attractive, with fair skin, thick eyebrows, long and dense eyelashes, the sun is pouring down from the window, just hitting his side face, under the harmony of light and shadow, it looks very beautiful. I was fascinated by it.

Gu Zijin rubbed me behind my back, I woke up from the beautiful scene, coughed twice in embarrassment, adjusted the expression on my face, stretched out my friendly hands and smiled: "Hello, my name is Ye Zhenzhen, the Ye Zhenzhen of the "Book of Songs" 'Escape, its Ye Zhenzhen'. It's a pleasure to be at the same table with you. ”

Gu Zijin also stretched out his hand to report to his home, "My name is Gu Zijin, he is my brother Gu Zipei, and our name is also taken from the "Book of Songs" 'Qingqing Zijin, you have my heart; Qingqingzi Pei, I think about it'. ”

"Lu Li, the strange Lu Li."

After the boy's brief introduction, he ignored my and Gu Zijin's hands hanging in the air, turned his head and began to look through the "Yangfan Middle School Student Handbook" on the table.

I withdrew my hand, coughed twice in embarrassment, and Gu Zipei, who was sitting in the back seat, asked incomprehensibly, "Zhen Zhen, do you have a cold?" How old cough. ”

I turned around and glared at him, and Gu Zipei immediately shut up.

Gu Zijin said four words in lip language, "really individual".

Seeing that Lu Li didn't want to chat with you very much, and I didn't want to put a hot face on my cold ass, I was half-propped up and bored looking through the student handbook.

After about ten minutes, Zhang Long patted the podium and motioned for us to be quiet.

"Students, we have a tradition in Yangfan Middle School, freshmen have to go to the army for a week of military training before the start of school, and everyone will line up at the school gate at two o'clock this afternoon."

As soon as the words fell, there was a wail in the class.

Zhang Long ignored everyone's complaints and continued: "There are a lot of things to do during the military training, and we need to elect two temporary squad leaders to be responsible for some work in the early stage of school. Do you have a suitable candidate? ”

Because we are not familiar with each other at the beginning of school, everyone look at me, I look at you, and no one spoke for a long time.

Seeing this, Zhang Long picked up a piece of paper on the table and looked at it, and said: "Since everyone has no idea, then so be it, the position of class leader will first be held by the top two students in our class, and we will democratically elect after the military training is over." ”

The first entrance is the most important, and the class president is actually a thankless position, so the students are all in favor.

"Then please ask Lu Li, who is the first in our class, and Ye Zhenzhen, who is the second in our class, to stand up and let everyone know."

I was a little overwhelmed by the sudden name call by the teacher. And Lu Li stood up calmly after hearing his own name. After he stood up, I realized that he was very tall, I only reached his shoulder, I raised my head slightly to look at him, and sure enough, the handsome guy was 360 degrees without dead ends.

When I was young, I was very envious of those good-looking classmates, because there were always many people around them vying to be friends with them. I felt that the phrase "all men are created equal" was a false proposition, and I told my mother about this idea, and my mother touched my head and said gently: "Zhenzhen, God is fair, although you are not beautiful, but you study well!" That's the good thing about you. ”

I think my mom always coaxed people into a routine, and for a long time afterward, whenever I sighed in the mirror about my looks, I would comfort myself with this reason. But now that my table mates are separated, good-looking and good at studying, I deeply understand that the phrase "my life is up to the sky, not me" is the truth.

The classmates started whispering again, and I heard a few girls talking.

Girl A: "This boy is not only handsome, but also has such good grades." Which school did he go to before? ”

Girl B: "I know, I know, he was in the next class next to me in junior high school, and his academic performance is very good, so he can go straight to the first middle school, I don't know why he came to sail?" ”

Girl C: "Who is the girl next to her, do they know each other?" ”

Girl D: "Maybe it's a crush on him." ”

After saying that, several people laughed quietly.

Lu Li seemed to hear it too, and frowned. I was speechless at their conversation, remembering that when I used to go to my grandmother's house, my grandmother always liked to carry a small bench to the entrance of the village in the evening to chat with the aunts, and the topic of conversation was always whose sow gave birth to beautiful cubs, whose little earth dog ran to get along with the poodle in the town. I can imagine that they will be like this forty years from now.

"The two squad leaders will stay for a moment after the class meeting." Zhang Long waved his hand, motioned for us to sit down, and continued to talk about some precautions for military training.

After sitting down, Lu Li continued to read the "Student Handbook", I was a little curious about what a school rules and discipline was good about, so I stretched my neck and secretly glanced at it, it turned out that Lu Li had a book in the student handbook, because of myopia, I vaguely saw black and white characters painted on it, and the back was bare. I immediately thought of the comics that Gu Zipei rented from a bookstore during the summer vacation, and the cartoon characters drawn on them were scantily dressed and had a light manners, and Gu Zipei told me that it was an adult comic. My face turned red, and I quickly withdrew my eyes, and sat down again as if I didn't see anything, listening to Zhang Long talk about military training, but thinking about how Lu Li could read this kind of book in class.

At the end of the class meeting, Zhang Long asked us to go home first and prepare well, and arrive at school on time in the afternoon, and then walked out of the classroom after explaining the work of the class leader to Lu Li and me.

There are only four people left in the classroom, and because the Gu family is waiting for me, the two of them are playing backgammon in the book at the moment.

Lu Li and I returned to our seats to pack our schoolbags, in order to enhance the friendship with Lu Li, I said to Lu Li without words: "Squad Leader Lu, give me more advice in the future!" ”

Lu Li replied expressionlessly: "I am also the first time to be a squad leader, so I have nothing to advise." ”

β€œ......”

Lu Li's tone was innocent and sincere, so I didn't know how to reply, so I had to continue to find other topics, "I heard that your junior high school is a high school, it's so amazing, I was looking forward to being admitted to a high school in elementary school, and the result was two points worse." ”

Lu Li threw the "Student Handbook" into his schoolbag and replied indifferently: "The school district house that my family bought next to No. 1 Middle School is a direct promotion to primary school. ”

Originally, I had prepared a lot of compliments in my heart, but I didn't expect Lu Li's answer to make the corners of my mouth twitch, and I laughed dryly, "Yes, yes!" Your parents were so prescient! ”

Lu Li didn't reply again, picked up his schoolbag and threw down the sentence "Close the doors and windows at the end" and walked out of the classroom.

Gu Zijin didn't know when the game ended, stood up and hooked my neck, looked at the direction of Lu Li's departure, and said with a smile: "Zhen Zhen, your table mate is simply a big iceberg that is difficult to climb!" ”

I snorted and said, "Who am I, I am the little sun full of energy, and I promise to melt his 10,000-year-old iceberg!" ”
