Tang Aijun was stunned on the shore, and after a while he grinned and said, "You have also learned to flamboyate?" Stay away from me and escort me! Miss Ben is a fast swim! ”

Xiao Daqian remembered a term in the martial arts novel he read some time ago, and grinned: "The iron palm floats on the water!" ”

Tang Aijun ignored him, but stepped on the bluestone slab on the shore, posed, straightened his body, separated his legs back and forth, one foot was close to the water's edge, and then his arms were raised high and placed straight behind his head, his hands were closed back and forth, and then he faced the water surface, his body leaned forward, and after jumping forward slightly, he plunged into the water with a "bang", and then he didn't see her make any moves, and he had already swam out of more than ten meters.

I have to say that just this is enough to make Xiao Daqian stunned, he usually likes to swim very much, but whether it is the posture used or the purpose of swimming, it is just a kind of relaxation, and Tang Aijun This is simply the action of a professional athlete, beautiful and generous and stretching freely, he chased the girl very hard, and shouted in his mouth: "Wow, Aijun, you are so good!" His swimming action is to paddle with both hands, and then two feet as oars like a paddle to slap the water, puff and puff splash, there seems to be a wave on the water surface, this kind of action is very laborious, he has been driving for more than ten minutes still did not catch up with Tang Aijun, during which Tang Aijun has changed two or three postures, and now she is backstroke, her head is floating on the water, using her arms to pluck the lake, and they have always maintained a distance of more than ten meters.

There are not many people who swim at night in the North Lake, there are often sounds of slapping the water and talking on the lake, there are also men and women, but the lake area is very large, and everyone is used to bypassing it when they hear someone somewhere, the two say that they are swimming together, but in fact, Tang Aijun is wandering in the lake with Xiao Daqian.

Xiao Daqian realized that he was wrong, he always felt that Tang Aijun asked him to swim to consider safety, after all, there are many unpredictable factors for girls to swim in the North Lake at night, and the other is that she is generally watery, I am afraid that she needs help in an emergency, but now it is not like that at all, Tang Aijun's swimming skills far surpass his own, and even the two are not of the same magnitude, if Tang Aijun does not intentionally control his rhythm, maybe Xiao Daqian will be thrown off by her.

After swimming for a while, they had already swam to the center of the lake, Tang Aijun stopped, she was still floating on the water in a backstroke posture, looking at the stars in the sky, Xiao Daqian did not continue to use the dog planing posture, but paddled a few times with his arm to Tang Aijun's side: "Aijun, you swim so well." ”

Tang Aijun grinned: "Practice makes perfect, I am a technical streamer." Your swimming is a wild road, you hit and bumper, hee-hee, it's so fun! ”

Xiao Daqian also smiled: "I've been swimming like this since I was a child, and the village is in this posture, but I'm so powerful at piercing, I can pierce more than ten meters at once!" ”

Tang Aijun smiled again: "You call it diving swimming." I really don't know that posture! Xiao Daqian, look at the stars in the sky, it's so beautiful! ”

Xiao Daqian also learned to look at the sky like Tang Aijun, but he couldn't stabilize his body, the seemingly calm lake was also flowing, he didn't know how to tread water, just paddling his arms to maintain balance, it was now more than eight o'clock, the stars were not particularly bright, and it was a bit of a scene of flowers becoming charming, Xiao Daqian didn't know the names of those stars, just nodded.

"That's a Scorpio!" Tang Aijun gave Xiao Daqian advice, "If you get lost at night in this season, we will find Scorpio, which is due south!" This is probably the most magnificent constellation on the zodiac. And all the constellations, that is, Scorpio is the most worthy of its name, its long string of stars on the lower left forms a curly scorpion tail, the scorpion head composed of several stars on the right, and the two poisonous needles on the side of the head, vividly showing the scorpion with only teeth and claws. Are you right? ”

Xiao Daqian looked south for a long time, but he couldn't see anything, so he was a little depressed: "I know the Big Dipper, this is the South Dipper, right?" ”

Tang Aijun nodded: "Yes, this is the Southern Dipper Six Stars!" And Cygnus, Xiao Daqian, do you like this view? ”

Xiao Daqian nodded, he seemed to be opening up another kind of world, if he came to the county No. 1 Middle School, Xiao Daqian has been fighting for his ideals, then he is more like an ascetic, except for studying and occasionally reading martial arts novels, he has no joy in life, which also seems to be the only direction for rural children, just like Jin Yunfei often reminds him: ideals are the most important, and you can give up everything for the ideal, including that hazy love affair.

But this swimming and watching the stars in the middle of the lake evoked a very romantic feeling in the boy's heart, he could swim freely, he could lie on the waves to know Scorpio and Cygnus, and he could be the flower messenger of the lesbian table, it turned out that life was colorful, not as simple as black and white. It turns out that learning is a part of life, and it may be the most important part, but it is not the whole of yourself, the pressure is heavy, maybe it is right to learn to let pressure become a motivation, not to make it everything.

Xiao Da looked at the sky in a daze, his body was a little sluggish, and finally his head sank into the water, almost becoming a catastrophe, Tang Aijun laughed under the starlight: "Stupid? ”

Xiao Daqian struggled out of the water, he wiped his face with his hand, and smiled: "I think the stars in the sky!" , it turns out that there is so much knowledge. ”

Tang Aijun shook his arm again and swam to the east of the lake: "Yes, Xiao Daqian, do you know why you have never been able to pass the Chinese test?" That is, I have accumulated a lot of similar knowledge, and I can improve it by reading more books. Alas, but there are not many opportunities, we will soon be in the third year of high school, and I'm afraid I will have to study like you. ”

Xiao Daqian smiled, he understood the meaning of Tang Aijun's words, she received a systematic education since she was a child, kindergarten and primary school until the current Boping No. 1 Middle School are the accumulation of step-by-step, and many rural children are lost at the starting line, learning is a means of livelihood for rural babies, it is never the icing on the cake to send charcoal in the snow, he and Tang Aijun may be able to compete in academic performance, but some of the original gaps may take many years to catch up, and even the next generation has to catch up, He has reached the stage where he has begun to think about life.

"What's the matter, do you think what I said irritates you a bit? Xiao Daqian, I have never looked down on you in the slightest, and I can always feel positive energy from you, your hardship, perseverance and kindness all make me admire, but you also have a lot of characters that I don't like, you seem to be too concerned about some small things. ”

Tang Aijun rarely talks to a peer like this openly and honestly, and speaking from the heart, she now feels that she and Xiao Daqian have a lot of common language, and she also wants to hear how Xiao Daqian sees herself.

Xiao Daqian mechanically paddled the water with his hands, he didn't know how to explain, or how to justify, from birth to the present, Xiao Daqian has experienced great joy and sorrow, the death of his mother and the remarriage of his father once made him doubt life, and later the blind date with Yang Hongxia made the young man have the desire to be unwilling to be subordinate, and now Tang Aijun's evaluation or persuasion of him began to make him seem to perceive a new world: How do I look at my past, is my ideal really to be a doctor? Can I take control of my future?

After swimming for a while, the two of them landed, and Tang Aijun found the lifebuoy she brought: "I'm so happy today, Xiao Daqian, let's swim together again this summer, I like to talk to you like this!" But you didn't say anything today! ”

Xiao Daqian smiled, he felt that this swimming had benefited him a lot, and it seemed that what he was thinking about was becoming more and more real: "Okay! I'm going to learn how to swim, I used to play in the water. ”

Tang Aijun laughed: "Maybe that kind of blind play is the happiest." Go back to your dorm! ”

Xiao Daqian promised to wave goodbye to Tang Aijun, he was not in a hurry to go back, but decided to think about his future life.

Tang Aijun looked back after walking a long distance, the boy was still standing by the lake and didn't know what he was doing, and she suddenly felt a strong sense of loneliness.
