Chapter 162: Coming-of-Age Party
As New Year's Day approaches, the street decorations become festive, and the supermarket has begun to play a few familiar music on a loop.
After Tao You came back from the Jingling Temple, the two peace blessings were placed in the innermost layer of her schoolbag by her, but she never found a suitable opportunity for Song Yimian.
The temperature plummeted unexpectedly that night, and the wind outside the window roared so fiercely that it sounded like someone was crying, and even the crescent moon in the night sky looked haggard and miserable.
Tao You listened to the sound of the wind, and his heart trembled. On the opposite side of the street, I don't know which side, something from a high place was blown down by the wind and smashed on the ground with a deafening loud noise.
Tao You was so frightened by this loud noise that his hands trembled, and he directly drew a long horizontal line on the scroll.
"Wow!"
"What fell?!"
"It's so exciting!"
"Sounds like one of those big aluminum cards has fallen! When I came to the typhoon before, there was a blow off across my house, and that's the sound!"
"Go see, go see! Can you see it from the window?"
Many of the boys in the class were excited, and the self-study with a good atmosphere began to stir, and the study committee members sat at the podium table, holding a notebook in their hands, threatening them to deduct points by name if they quarreled again, but there was no deterrent.
"The windows won't be blown out, will they?"
There were also some girls sitting by the window, leaning over, staring worriedly at the glass window that was constantly shaking and making noise by the fan.
γΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·γ
"I don't know about evening self-study! So noisy, what does it look like?! Your voices will be heard in the whole corridor!" In the last fifteen minutes of the evening self-study, the head teacher pushed open the front door and walked into the classroom, bringing in a cold wind.
The class was quiet in an instant, and those students who opened the windows and were lying there with their heads poked their heads eager to try also ran back to their seats with a smoke, leaving a whole row of large open glass windows, and the cold wind continued to pour in, and the class was full of rolls for a while.
The head teacher gave them a minute to clean up with rare patience, and slammed the podium table with a pinch, "Be quiet, and I'll talk about it at the last time."
"It's the end of the year, and the new year will be in a few days, and the semester will come to an endΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Hong Xiqi turned his back and gave Tao You a note under the nose of the head teacher: The head teacher must be going to say that the New Year's Day party the day after tomorrow! Ah~ I'm so excited!! Xiao Youyou, are you ready for the dress the day after tomorrow?
Tao Youguang looked at her back, and could feel that she was so excited now, so she almost went up to dance to celebrate.
The New Year's Day party has always been a big event in No. 1 Middle School, especially for the sophomore students, which is equivalent to an adult party given to them by the school.
Although most of the students have not yet reached the age of eighteen, because of the intense academic situation in the third year of high school, there is not much spare time for them to have another adult party, so the school leaders decided to advance the adult party to the second year of high school, and the New Year's Day party at the same time, which saves money and gives students a sense of ceremony, killing two birds with one stone.
And this year, because the autumn league was postponed to December 31, it meant that Tao You and they had to play outside during the New Year's Day holiday, and they didn't have time to come back to attend the party.
The school leaders held a meeting and advanced the party to December 30, intimately believing that these students should not miss the first party in their lives as adults because they had to play for the school outside.
What dresses to prepare? Tao You's eyes stared at the head teacher on the stage, while quietly reaching out and passing the note back to Hong Xiqi.
"This New Year's Day party starts at half past seven the night after tomorrow, there is no evening self-study, all students go home or go back to the dormitory to pack up after school in the evening, and gather in the classroom at 7:15Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
No way?! Of course, you need to prepare a dress for the party! Last time was a freshman in high school, and I only participated in the New Year's Day party. This is a coming-of-age party! Everyone will wear a formal dress, which is a long-standing tradition of No. 1 Middle School, and it is also a sense of ritual that the principal has always paid attention to. I prepared the dress a month ago, and I also inquired that Ding Dongyi went to customize a dress this time.
"Then, although the school said that they should wear a dress, everyone has also seen this weather," Hong Xiqi also happened to mention this when the head teacher also mentioned it here, she pointed to the north wind whistling outside the window, "The wind is so strong, and it rains from time to time, and the temperature drops down very seriously today." You all dress me tightly, don't just put on a single coat for me and come over, when the party is over, and then you get caught the cold, do you think it's worth it? And girls, I know that dresses look good with high heels, but your bones are not fully developed yet, and wearing high heels is not good for your health, so it's best to keep the heel of that shoe below five centimeters."
As soon as the words ended, there was a sigh from below, and many girls had prepared shoes that exceeded this height. There is no girl who doesn't love beauty, who doesn't like beautiful clothes with beautiful shoes, especially girls who are in puberty. They are in the stage of moving from ignorance to having a clear self-awareness, and they are most concerned about the gazes and comments of others looking at them, whether they are dressed appropriately or not, and whether they look good, and even directly related to their self-confidence.
I wear a uniformed uniform at school every day, and I have long been tired of seeing it, and I am imagining that I can take this opportunity to dress up wantonly and shine at the party, and I was beaten back to its original shape by the words of the head teacher.
This is the most worrying thing for every class teacher, but it happens every year, either some students stepped on something and did not stand firm and fell, or some students began to have a high fever after returning home that day because they wore too little at night, delaying a lot of later course progress.
"What is there to sigh, I am doing this for your good. Waiting for the big night to rumble in the dark, wearing shoes that high, fell on the road, and was happy to go to the hospital? And the boys," the head teacher pointed the finger at the snickering boys, "The party is a relaxation of the requirements, allowing you to dress as you like, but those mavericks have paid attention to me!" sy, with teeth and claws on his face, wearing toy clothes," the head teacher pinpointed the careful thoughts of several hot-blooded young people in the class, and she pointed to the students below, "and those who are ready to dye their hair red, green, and silver, those messy and colorful. Don't think I don't know who they are. You'd better put those little things away for me! Boy, prepare a normal suit or something, you can rent a set, there are so many suit shops on the streets of the city. Hair, just get some hairspray and you're done."
At the bottom, there was a discussion about Suosuo, and many students were in the class during the day loudly and wantonly proclaimed how amazing and attractive their outfits would be, and they would definitely become the first in the audience.
Tao You recalled whether there were more formal clothes in his closet, but except for a pile of sweatshirts, sweaters, down jackets and pants, there were only some scarves and gloves left, not even a thicker skirt.
Just when she was about to break the jar and break it, and was about to wear the most ordinary sweatshirt with sweatpants to the party, Hong Xiqi sent another note: I knew you weren't prepared, after school the day after tomorrow, go directly to my house, I just prepared a few more sets, you go to try.
When the school bell rang, the head teacher just finished the last word and walked out of the classroom with the record book.
As soon as Hong Xiqi turned around, Tao You replied, "Don't be so troublesome, as long as you wear it formally, and there is no rule that girls must wear skirts or anything, I can go to my mother's place to find a formal shirt and pants to make do, the party, the important thing is to eat and drink well."
Hong Xiqi completely disagrees with her point of view, "Go to the spring outing, go to the picnic, that's what makes us eat and drink well." In spring, summer and autumn, you have to wear school uniforms on the outside, and you don't let go of such a cold weather in winter, wear your own down jacket, and wear an autumn school uniform jacket inside, which is also a shame that the school can figure it out. The meaning of the party is to give me every opportunity to dress up beautifully to greet us, the best eighteen. Who's going to really go and eat at that time."
- Me.
At home, Tao's mother set too many rules, you can't eat this, you can't eat that, and you can't eat more outside. Isn't it a rule to wear school uniforms at school, and they don't have the ability to break it, and they go into the classroom every day to bow their heads and study, what's the use of dressing up no matter how good they look, and they can't increase their brain power, so that their grades can be directly promoted to the first place in the grade.
Tao You shrugged his shoulders, saying that he didn't agree with Hong Xiqi's opinion, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
Hong Xiqi followed Tao You out of the classroom, as soon as she opened her mouth, she was poured a mouthful of cold wind, her hair was blown high, and she felt that her stomach was frozen by the cold wind she swallowed.
"Why am I so worried about you," there was too much noise in his ears, Hong Xiqi involuntarily amplified his voice, "I can tell you, this party, when the time comes, we will invite companions, and if there will be any activities at that time, it is not certain."
"Companion?" Tao You didn't hear anyone else say this, and the head teacher didn't mention it just now.
Hong Xiqi hid behind the wall, her upper and lower teeth trembled, but she still insisted, "Yes, someone started looking for his companion half a month ago, otherwise why do you think Song Yimian suddenly had so many gifts and colorful envelopes in his drawer recently, it wouldn't be someone who was merciful and sympathetic and gave him food for free."
Tao You subconsciously swallowed his saliva, thinking of the snacks that had gone into his stomach for most of them, and he felt a little weak. She secretly ate a lot during the self-study class just now, and now her stomach is a little supportive.
Not to mention, many of them are still delicious.
"And who are you looking for?" Tao You rubbed his stomach and asked.
Hong Xiqi glanced at the math competition class on the side, noticed Tao You's inquiring eyes with a hint of ridicule, pulled her over shyly, hurriedly walked downstairs, and said vaguely, "Oh, I haven't looked for it yet, so I'll follow fate when the time comes."
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Tao You came home and mentioned this matter to Tao's mother, and Tao's mother rarely agreed to help her buy it tomorrow afternoon.
After this was done, Tao You returned to the room, the window opened a crack, and he lay on the table, staring at the two peace blessings side by side on the table.
- How can this be given to him? Or forget it?
Tao You was a little annoyed that he was impulsive at that time, and took two peace blessings, but now he doesn't even know how to give them to Song Yimian.
"I picked it up for you when I went to the temple." Why did you just help him get it so easily?
"This is when I was passing by a temple, and a master gave me this peace blessing at the door and gave me two." Then why don't you give it to your parents, and besides, who will send this kind of thing casually at the temple gate.
- It seems very deliberate to say it.
Tao You couldn't think of a suitable word, and howled in annoyance.
"Buckle." There was a knock on the door.
Tao Youfu quickly stuffed Ping An Fu into his pocket and turned around, "Dad, what's wrong?"
Father Tao looked at Tao You's hand stuffed in his pocket suspiciously, and said, "What are you doing? So panicked."
"Nope!" Tao You smiled on his face, but his heart was bottomless, "I, I was reading a book, and I was startled by you."
She was facing away from the door just now, and Ping An Fu was placed in front of her, and Daddy Tao should not be able to see it, but he looked like he was seeing everything now.
"Oh," Father Tao nodded hesitantly, "What, I'll let you know, Grandma Tang has woken up, and she will be observed for a few more days, and if there is no problem, she will be transferred to the general ward."
This is the best news Tao You has ever heard these days, and she smiled, "Then are we going to see Grandma Tang?"
"A little longer." Dad Tao nodded, "When will the competition start the day after tomorrow?"
"There is a half-day class in the morning, go home at noon to get the luggage, gather at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and take the bus to the hotel." Tao You replied truthfully.
Father Tao pondered for a few seconds and continued to ask, "So, Xiao Song, how is your room arranged?"
"I don't know." Tao You shook his head, Coach Tan only asked them to pay attention to the training, and the others had not yet told them, this behavior was inexplicably similar to the head teacher, "It must be two people in one room."
Daddy Tao still has a question, "That boy and girl live on the same floor?"
- Isn't this the room card number taken randomly?
"I should." Tao You replied hesitantly, "I don't know, I'll know when I get the room card." She didn't know what happened to Daddy Tao today, as if she was very worried.
Dad Tao stood up and finally said, "It's just a game here, and you have to stay in a hotel, and the organizer has a lot of tricks. Okay, you go to bed early, by the way, the New Year's Day party the day after tomorrow, dress warmly, don't catch a cold."
