When they went out, it was still early, and the four of them stood at the head of the bridge, looking at each other, not knowing where to go next.

East Lane is a small scenic spot in Weicheng, but because it is a residential and living alley, there are only a handful of small vendors in it, and there is no entertainment.

A small river from west to east divides the east lane into north and south, the old eight-character bridge spans the river, there is a small pavilion next to it, and there are usually many uncles and aunts fanning fans, drinking tea, eating fruits, chatting and playing chess there. On such a hot day, Tao You and the others were not in the mood to join this organization.

"So where are we going next?" Tao You asked hesitantly. If they're going home, she's fine.

Tao You originally planned, it is estimated that it will not be too early to come out of Grandma Tang's house, probably they will also go home, her house is close, just enough to go to the bookstore to take the air conditioner for a while, and then go home when the meal is over.

"I don't want to go back so early." Hong Xiqi crossed his waist with one hand and covered his forehead with the other, looking up to the sky and saying, but he didn't have any ideas.

"I didn't even take a few pictures with this camera." Gu Yi fiddled with the camera in his hand.

"I'll see what you shot." Hong Xiqi leaned in to take a look, "Ah, why did you make me so ugly, delete it!" Help me retake a few shots here. ”

Gu Yi was not too troublesome, and helped her find a few suitable places to take pictures.

"Little Youyou, you come too." Hong Xiqi greeted Tao You, "This is the first time we have come out to play together, and we want to take pictures as a souvenir." ”

Tao You has always been a little resistant to the camera, when he was a child, he was pressed by his parents and had no choice, and he rarely took pictures after he went to junior high school. But looking at Hong Xiqi's joyful smile, she suddenly became less disgusted with the camera, stepped forward, and stood beside her.

"Tao You, don't stiffen your face, smile a little." Gu Yi spoke behind the camera.

Tao You rubbed his face to relax his muscles, revealing an official standard smile. After the shooting, the corners of the mouth immediately lowered.

"Song Yimian, Tao You, you two take a picture together, reunite after so many years, such a commemorative thing, you must keep one, this is still a place where you often came to play when you were young, what a coincidence!" Hong Xiqi stood next to Gu Yi and commanded the two of them.

Song Yimian put one hand on Tao You's head, standing casually.

"I'm not short! Aren't you tired like this! What a shape to concave in! Tao You stood aside and straightened his hair.

Song Yimian lost his support point and stumbled.

"I'm not tired, it's just right." Song Yi said reluctantly, and wanted to put his hand on it again.

Tao You hurriedly hid to the side, and unconvinced, he looked for an opportunity to fight back: "You are revenge!" Why is the heart eye so small, isn't it just that you took pictures on your head when you were a child, as for remembering so many years? Yes! ”

Song Yimian avoided the hands and feet coming to her and responded to her: "Do you remember! Just because of that time, I was told by my mother that I was not tall for more than half a month, and kept giving me some strange things to make me taller! She even wanted to take me for a paternity test because of my height! If I don't find it back from you, I'll lose a lot of money! ”

With the previous lesson, Hong Xiqi and Gu Yi tacitly took a few steps back to avoid a second accidental injury.

"Snap! Hurry, hurry, hurry. Hong Xiqi had a flash of inspiration, "If you don't shoot now, when will you wait, you will definitely be able to use it in the future." ”

Gu Yi obediently took a few photos in a row.

"Well, these are not bad." Hong Xiqi and Gu Yi stood under the tree, picking out the photos, "Go back to me." ”

I also deleted a few that I thought were not good-looking. Gu Yi raised his eyebrows and watched her movements, but he didn't tell her that he had uploaded these photos to his mobile phone just now.

"Convincing or not! Just ask you if you are convinced! Here, Tao You locked Song Yimian's neck with one hand and pressed it down, grabbed his hair with the other, stared, and wrote the words 'Little Overlord' on his face.

"Obey, let go." Song Yimian bent over, a little tired, and his scalp was also torn painfully.

"Tut-tut, it's so domineering." Hong Xiqi almost applauded Tao You, and took out his mobile phone to take pictures of this scene.

"Tut-tut, I'm really good at acting." Gu Yi also raised his camera to record this moment.

Tao You and Song Yimian finally stood up, but they were still secretly competing with each other.

"Snapshots!" Song Yimian shouted at Gu Yi, he tried to control his expression, and the back of his hand was pinched by Tao You, and it was estimated that he was bruised.

Gu Yi took a perfunctory photo, glanced at the photo casually, and put away the camera.

"Jingle bells." Tao You's phone rang.

It's Chen Lian.

"Hey, Tao You, I'm here at the entrance of East Lane." Chen Lian spoke very quietly.

"Oh, we're coming out to pick you up." Tao You beckoned to the three of them and walked outside, "You wait there for a while, and you'll be there soon." ”

Only then did the four of them remember that Chen Lian hadn't come yet, and they were all planning to go home.

"I forgot, Chen Lian is also coming." Hong Xiqi patted his head and said.

"I also forgot to tell her that we were already out, so we can't let her go home." Tao You also felt sorry.

"Chen Lian."

Tao You and the others walked to the mouth of the alley and greeted Chen Lian.

"I'm late, I'm sorry for something at home." Chen Lian smiled apologetically, her hand clutching the strap of her schoolbag.

"Eh," Tao You couldn't open his mouth a little, "Chen Lian, that, Grandma Tang's family came back suddenly just now, and we came out first, I'm sorry I didn't tell you in time." ”

Chen Lian's smile stiffened for a few seconds, blinked quickly, and said dryly, "No, it's okay." Are you going back? ”

"Do you want to go shopping?" Tao You and Hong Xiqi glanced at each other, "Let's go together." ”

"It's not like you haven't been here before, go and have a look, it just so happens that I haven't been here for a long time." Hong Xiqi accosted, "It's just that there is no entertainment here." ”

Chen Lian was dragged inside, not feeling good in her heart, and she didn't look carefully along the way.

The sun followed closely on the heads of several people, without a trace of wind, and the sun made the brains buzz, so they wanted to find a place to rest and drink saliva.

"Eh, little you, there's a bookstore here."

The five stopped at the entrance of the bookstore.

"Jian Lan Xuan, what a unique name. Just opened? I've never seen it before. Hong Xiqi became interested, "Go in and have a look." ”

"Okay." Tao You nodded and said his plan, "I brought some homework, I originally wanted to finish Grandma Tang's homework here for a while." ”

After hearing this, the remaining four people looked at Tao You synchronously.

"What's wrong?" Tao You was a little flustered, and couldn't help but explain, "My house is close, there is air conditioning here, it's quiet, and there are snacks, so I want to do my homework for a while before leaving." ”

"Such a coincidence," Hong Xiqi opened his schoolbag and showed it to Tao You, "I also brought my homework and planned to go to the library next to my house." ”

"I brought it too." Chen Lian also opened the zipper, and she was in a better mood at this time.

Gu Yi patted his schoolbag, as well as Song Yimian's schoolbag, "We also brought it." This bookstore is very good, we come often, and we are familiar with the guys at the bar here, so you can get a discount. ”

Tao Youxin said: No, the first time I saw Song Yimian when I came back, was here. Also, is it popular to come out and play with homework now?

She felt that she needed to work harder, and she didn't want to be left behind.

"Then we'll come back when we're done shopping." Tao You said, if you want to come out to play, you can't let Chen Lian write her homework as soon as she comes out.

"It's okay, there's nothing to shop about, right, let's go in and do your homework." Chen Lian didn't want to go shopping much, it was very boring, and she regretted running so far before she saw this bookstore.

"Then go in." Hong Xiqi was the first to open the door and enter.

"Oh my God, that's amazing." She looked around and sighed.

"It's big." Chen Lian also whispered in amazement, she had seen such a stylish bookstore for the first time in her life, and looked at everything in the store curiously.

The five hesitated between the second and first floors for a few seconds, and decisively chose their seats in front of the bar.

"Brother Chen, you go to work today." Gu Yi lay on the bar and greeted the waiter in the bar.

"The shift has changed." Brother Chen walked over and took a can of Coke to Gu Yi, "There are so many people here today." Your friend? ”

"Classmates." Gu Yi replied, "I'll give you a discount later." ”

Brother Chen nodded briskly, "Okay, drink and eat by yourself." ”

Gu Yi thanked him and returned to his seat.

"Can he call the shots?" Tao You was a little uneasy, "Just give it when he says it, does he advance money?" ”

"Old customers here have discounts, not to mention a veteran like Gu Yi." Song Yimian replied to Tao You.

Veteran, Tao You nodded, I didn't expect that a person with such a personality as Gu Yi would like to come to a quiet place like a bookstore so much, and I thought that his favorite thing was to go out with friends to have a good time, people can't be good-looking.

"When I came here before, I spent most of my time looking for a place to play games, and I was under the care of my mother at home, so I couldn't have fun." Gu Yi smiled hippie.

That's right, this is the Gu Yi that Tao You knows.

Hong Xiqi took the tray and packed a few pieces of cake over: "Xiao Youyou, you pick one." ”

"Didn't you just finish eating?" Gu Yi didn't understand, "You haven't eaten enough?" Didn't you eat a lot of your own pastries? ”

Hong Xiqi chirped a few times, "Dessert after dinner." ”

"Eh, didn't you just finish eating, you didn't eat enough? Didn't you eat a lot of your own fruits? Hong Xiqi saw Gu Yi stretching out his hand to the cake and choked back word for word.

"Ahem." Gu Yi cleared his throat in embarrassment and glanced at Hong Xiqi: "Snack after dinner." ”

"Cut." Hong Hee-ki expressed disdain for his actions.

Chen Lian looked at the four of them and found that she was a little unable to interject into the topic, "Did you all bring things to grandma?" ”

"Oh, nothing." Tao You thought of what he said earlier, "You don't need to bring it, Grandma Tang just said that we had a meal." ”

Chen Lian smiled reluctantly, and when she lowered her head and opened the homework book, her smile disappeared completely.

The five of them stopped chatting, and all bowed their heads and began to write their homework seriously.

Time passed, and when Tao You looked up again, a large reddish-orange fiery cloud hung in the sky, and the small river sandwiched in the middle of the alley sparkled and dyed the same reddish-orange.

A remnant sun spreads in the water, half of the river is sorrowful and half of the river is red.

Tao You's poem popped up in his mind, which was not stocked with many poems, and he sighed in his heart how good he was at applying what he had learned, and laughed unconsciously.

"What's the daze? Done with homework? Song Yimian heard her laughter and knocked her head with a pen.

"Hey, try again!" Tao You covered his head and glared at him and threatened.

Song Yimian ignored her threat and took her homework book, "Won't these questions?" Let me tell you about it? ”

Tao You snatched back the notebook and covered the empty title: "What's the matter with you!" I'll do it myself. ”

Song Yimian laughed, "As your tablemate and squad leader, I should help you, don't worry, don't laugh at you." ”

As he spoke, he tore the notebook again, put on a piece of scratch paper, and began to explain the calculus.

Tao You is not stupid, someone took the initiative to give her a lecture, so she took the opportunity to continue, and she happened to be stuck in these questions.

On the other side, Hong Xiqi bit the tip of the pen, looked at the math problem in front of him and frowned, unable to put down the pen for a long time.

"Master Gu will tell you about it?" Gu Yi leaned over and looked at the question and asked kindly.

Hong Xiqi looked at him with a picky eye and pushed the homework book in front of him.

Chen Lian, who was sitting in the middle, looked up at the four people on both sides of the discussion topic, clenched the pen, and inexplicable emotions surged into her heart, and she left a few deep scratches on the scratch paper. After relieving himself, he flipped through the scratch paper as if nothing had happened, and continued to write his homework.

"Xiao Yu." Boss Tong walked over with a smile, "Come and learn." ”

"Hello." Tao You tugged at the corners of her mouth, not knowing what to say, she only remembered this strange bookstore owner when she entered the bookstore, but she didn't expect such a coincidence, and she met again.

Boss Tong carefully looked at Song Yimian, who was talking with Tao You, accepted it with a smile, and asked Tao You, "These are all your classmates?" But his eyes didn't leave Song Yimian.

"yes, yes." Tao You nodded, not really wanting to pay attention to him.

Boss Tong nodded slightly, looked at Tao You and enlarged his smile, "Study well, they are all good students, then you continue." If you want to eat, just go and tell Xiao Chen, just put it on my account. ”

"Uh, thank you." Before Tao You's words of refusal could be spoken, Boss Tong had already left.

Song Yimian frowned, feeling that there was an indescribable weirdness in the way the boss looked at him just now, which made him feel uncomfortable, watching the boss's figure disappear into the stairwell, and turned around and asked Tao You: "Who is he?" When did you meet him? How did you meet? Are you that familiar? Giving you a free bill? ”

A series of questions were thrown to Tao You.

Looking at the curious faces of the rest of the people, Tao You sighed and explained the previous meeting clearly.

"He's the bookstore owner." Hong Xiqi recalled Boss Tong's appearance, "Well, it doesn't seem to be the same as I thought." But others are good, and they give us free orders. ”

"You know the owner here! I've never met each other in so many times, let alone met. Gu Yi said, "Why didn't you say it earlier, what more discount do you need?" Eh, can you help me tell me if Ai Jiu's new comic can be sold to me cheaper. ”

Song Yimian still frowned, and reminded Tao You: "You better be careful, don't be stupid and casually trust strangers, you want to tell me here later, I'll come with you." ”

Tao You gave Song Yimian an an affirmative look: "Of course, I'm not stupid, how can I meet so coincidentally every time." As he spoke, he took a spoon and dug up the cake in front of him, but found that he had already eaten it and had not eaten enough. She smashed her mouth and put down her spoon.

Song Yimian handed his cake to Tao You: "Eat, I'm not hungry." ”

Tao You was not polite, picked it up and dug up a big spoonful and put it in his mouth.
