Volume 1 Chapter 9
Luo Yuyou got out of the car, took his silver-white suitcase from Aunt Lian's hand, and said, "Go back." Aunt Lian and the driver got in the car and left, and Yu You dragged her suitcase to the campus alone.
Yesterday it rained overnight, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and the black sheepskin LOEWE (Loewe, Spanish luxury brand) soft-soled ballet shoes made a pleasant rustle on the blades of grass, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
There was no gate to the school, and on the low, grassy slope covered with purple daisies was a large, heavy, ancient stone, half hidden among the flowers and the other half exposed.
The stone is carved with intricate Roman patterns, and a pair of winged angels are carved directly above, holding a thick book with their cute and round arms, and in the center of the stone are engraved two quaint flower-style words, "A Academy".
Next to the boulevard stands a small wooden sign that reads: Drive at low speed, there are children and puppies ahead!
From the moment she entered the campus, she was fascinated by the beautiful scenery of the campus.
A school's more than 2,000-acre campus sits on a vast plain surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a tributary of the Merrimack River winding its way through the northern part of the campus. On the other side of the river, the hill is not high, overgrown with green trees, and midsummer has passed, and the thick, turquoise foliage is gradually revealing dappled red or yellow, and in the shade of the green trees is the spire of an old church. There is a large, clear lake on campus, and the water of the lake is tranquil and deep, adding a touch of coolness to the restless late summer. Scattered on both sides of the lake are stone houses of similar style and style, which are as beautiful as fairy tale castles in the summer sun, and those are the school buildings. On the south side of the campus, there are dozens of small red brick buildings, which are the dormitory area of the school. The huge lawn surrounded by the dormitory area and the academic building is called the Central Lawn.
The entire campus is covered with green grass, with many towering trees growing on the grass, and neat paths paved with stone slabs, staggered or parallel, through the grass, connecting the famous buildings of the school. On the wide boulevard, cars carrying new students and parents pass by unhurriedly.
As he walked, he breathed in the fresh and fragrant scent of the flowers and plants on campus, passing by a series of old red brick buildings, each of which is different, and the only similarity is that the shady walls are covered with green vines, covering large red brick walls, revealing a strong elegant college atmosphere unique to New England.
This plant is called ivy. Luo Yu thought: Like School A, which is called the "Little Ivy League" league school, do the boarding private high schools have such vibrant Ivy League schools on campus?
Luo Yu stopped and carefully watched these vigorous vines, they were like tiny snakes, climbing up the walls of the red brick buildings, each vine was densely covered with a small piece of lovely five-star leaves, so lush and lush, so flourishing, heavy as if about to droop, but full of joy to extend upward. After the countless vines intertwined with each other, they continued to go up and up without stopping along their own tracks...... Weaving a dense green net, in the change of years, how many children who fly their youth here are caught in the net, and the unknown loneliness, sadness, happiness, and hesitation on the way to grow up......
Yu You saw from afar, at the end of the boulevard is the main building of the school, made of blue-gray stone, tall, magnificent, the main building and its annexes are connected by a vaulted stone corridor, at this time, there are already some busy figures walking through the corridor.
In order to avoid disturbing the new students and parents who came to register, Luo Yuyou deliberately chose a quiet path and walked towards the dormitory. When she reached a sparse place, she suddenly remembered the poem of Henry David Thoreau in "Verdun", and she recited it softly with a particularly comfortable mood:
"I went to the woods
because I wished to live deliberately.
I wanted to live deep
and suck out…… (Draw...... )”
At this point, a boy's voice added:
“…… Suck Out All The Marrow Life
To put rout all that was not life
and not, when I came to die,
discover that I had not lived.” (but found that he had never lived)"
Luo Yu looked back and saw a handsome boy with a long figure not far away, standing there and smiling at him friendly, his smile warm and slightly shy.
That boy was Jiang Ruichen, and he saw this lonely girl from a distance. She wore an elegantly fitting spotless Victorian-style white shirt, a silk turtleneck embellished with intricate lace, making the girl look as noble and refined as a white swan, and the Tiffany blue umbrella dress rose slightly from the waistline, which made the girl's slender waist not hold it, and the skirt was ankle-length, with the girl's light steps as if dancing lightly in the grass, inadvertently, the soft brushing of the grass blades and those open daisies in the skirt seemed to be printed with a circle of irregular elegant lace.
The moment Luo Yu looked back, Jiang Ruichen inexplicably felt a throbbing in her heart, her eyes showed extremely rich and colorful colors in the sun, which was a charm that the best painter could not describe, with a deep purple streamer hidden in the ink black, a clean blue between Gu Pan, and perhaps a shallow golden brown hidden in it.
Yu You said lightly to the boy, "You also like this poem?" Her voice sounded so soft and calm that it instantly cut a ripple in his heart. The boy suddenly opened his mouth and stammered: "Hmm...... It's ......"
Luo Yu smiled leisurely, and her smile was beautiful, like a lily that bloomed after the rain. The morning sunlight shimmered with the golden particles of fine dust, wrapping the beautiful and beautiful figure in front of her, and setting off her independent dusty temperament, Jiang Ruichen looked for the two transparent wings behind the girl in the illusion of consciousness, she should be an elf, she was so beautiful that it was unreal, as if with magical magic, it soaked in the morning that filled the entire campus.
Just when Jiang Ruichen was surprised, surprised, and at a loss, the girl politely bowed to him slightly, and then dragged the small silver box away.
Jiang Ruichen came back to his senses for a long time, and opened his mouth at the girl's good-looking back, he wanted to ask her name, but she had already gone away.
At this time, the mother parked the car, walked towards Jiang Ruichen, and saw her son standing there in a daze, so she said, "It's okay, Chenchen, it's not early, let's hurry up and put the luggage in the dormitory." There is also a placement test in the afternoon. ”
