Throughout August, Gu Yu went to his grandmother's house in Shangao Village three times again. Alone or with An Hong, Ah Wen and A Wu and other friends, they went into the depths of the Dacangshan Mountain Range, caught three wild turtles and more than 30 wild stone frogs, as well as many Xikeng fish, and sold them for more than 3,200 yuan......

Throughout August, he and his little brothers in the city, such as the Monkey Monkey, the Meat Ball and the Kingfisher, constantly ran between the demolition area at the East Gate and the 38 thrift market at the South Gate. Collect old electrical appliances and sell them after repairing them. Throughout August, I made more than 2,100 yuan by reselling old electrical appliances......

During this period, Gu Yu helped her grandparents and grandparents buy a full set of old refrigerators, color TVs and washing machines. My grandfather and grandmother's family have become one of the few farmers in Shang'ao Village who are fully equipped with household appliances, although these electrical appliances are all old goods that Gu Yu bought from the demolition households at the east gate and the 38 thrift market at the south gate.

He gave one of his six friends, including Qian Qi in the city and An Hong in the village, a restored Walkman that he had picked up from the thrift market.

During this period, Gu Yu also took the time to go to the dry rest house to help those old men and ladies repair electrical appliances, with low prices, first-class service, and a good reputation......

During this period, he insisted on going to the Nanshan Tea House on Daliang Street on Nanda Road to listen to the big guy's lectures, be a hard-working little bee, serve tea and pour water, and be busy. The bigwigs in the Nanshan Tea Club all like this young man......

During this period, as long as she had time, Gu Yu insisted on going to the 2201 girls' apartment in Sanjiang Mingting to tutor in English, and under the careful guidance of Tang Yiqiu and Lu Yingying, she made rapid progress......

In the meantime, as long as he has time, he also insists on swimming with the three girls, taught Tang Yiqiu breaststroke, and the friendship with the three girls has followed up one step, and the relationship with Tang Yiqiu is more intimate......

During August, Gu Yu invested more than 7,000 yuan in the stock market from selling soft-shelled turtles in the wild and using old electrical appliances to make new gains, and successively bought 1,100 shares of Huafeng Hi-Tech shares, plus the original 200 shares, there were a total of 1,300 shares in the account, with an average holding cost of 6.38 yuan.

At the close of trading on Friday, the last week before the start of school on September 1, Huafeng Hi-Tech's share price slowly rose to about 6.95 yuan, and Gu Yu held 1,300 shares through his grandmother Zheng Wenjuan's stock account, with a market value of 9,035 yuan and a book profit of 741 yuan......

After the hard and fulfilling summer vacation of the second year of junior high school, the school opened on time on September 1, and Gu Yu and his brothers were about to usher in the tense first semester life of the junior high school graduating class.

Before leaving for school early in the morning, grandma Zheng Wenjuan prepared a lunch box and vegetable box for Gu Yu early.

The school's cafeteria is still relatively simple, and Gu Yu and his students' lunches are all steamed in the school's cafeteria with aluminum lunch boxes and rice.

Gu Yu put raw rice in his lunch box, and Zheng Wenjuan also deliberately added a little glutinous rice, saying that it was particularly fragrant and glutinous after steaming.

The aluminum vegetable box contains a piece of green onion grilled braised pork ribs and two large prawns and cucumbers that have just been cooked in the morning.

A few days ago, a small typhoon struck, and when I woke up today, it was still raining lightly.

After carrying a schoolbag, putting on an umbrella, carrying a lunch box with a mesh bag, and saying goodbye to his grandparents, Gu Yu went out.

To get from Hutong Street to No.15 Middle School, you need to pass through many old streets and alleys.

The longest of these bluestone alleys is called Baiyi Alley.

Baiyi Lane, formerly known as Baiyi Temple. During the Tang Dynasty, there was a thousand-year-old temple built here.

From a distance, Gu Yu saw a girl in white walking across from the opposite side of Baiyi Alley.

The girl also held an umbrella and carried an aluminum meal box similar to Gu Yu.

The girl is about the same age as Gu Yu, about 1.63 meters tall, and she is wearing a white dress. After the breeze blew the skirt, it revealed her tender lotus-like calves, with beautiful lines, and the whole person looked slender and pretty.

On her slightly bulging chest was a white school emblem "Minghai No. 1 Middle School".

Liu Zimeng! Gu Yu's heart couldn't help but blurt out.

The girl in front of her, in her previous life, had been in junior high school for three years, and the two of them often passed by in this white-clothed alley.

For three years, the two often looked at each other silently, familiar but very unfamiliar, and that feeling was very subtle.

In the previous life, for three years in junior high school, the two of them never said a word to each other.

Although there were many times, Gu Yu wanted to stop this girl and get to know her. But after all, I didn't muster up the courage to take the brave step.

Later, many years later, Gu Yu saw her again from a famous satellite TV program. I learned that her name was Liu Zimeng, and at that time she had become a famous TV host......

At the moment, Liu Zimeng in the rain is slim, just like the lilac-like girl in Dai Wangshu's "Rain Alley",

The color of lilacs,

The fragrance of cloves,

It's just that there is no sorrow like the lilac in the poem.

This time, Gu Yu, who was holding an umbrella, didn't think about it, and walked over quickly to block Liu Zimeng's way.

"You...... What do you want to do? After Liu Zimeng was suddenly blocked in her way, she stopped and looked at Gu Yu with wide eyes in a little surprise. The white-clothed alley was already very narrow, and after Gu Yu deliberately crossed the middle, Liu Zimeng, who was holding an umbrella, was very sad, and if he insisted on going over, Gu Yu's body would be wet.

In the past two years, the two have passed by countless times in this bluestone alley, and they can be regarded as old acquaintances in their eyes. Liu Zimeng was not panicked, from the school badge on Gu Yu's chest, she also knew that he was a student of the fifteenth middle school.

Gu Yu looked at Liu Zimeng's eyes and smiled: "This classmate, it's a pleasure to see you again, I wish you a happy start to school first!" ”

After hearing Gu Yu's words, Liu Zimeng was stunned for a moment, and then responded politely and softly: "Oh, I also wish you a happy start to school......

"This classmate, we will meet here every day in the future. Can we get to know each other? Gu Yu continued to smile and asked.

Liu Zimeng blinked her eyes, thought for a while, and then said to Gu Yu: "My surname is Liu, and I am a ...... of the third (2) class of Minghai No. 1 Middle School" She also conservatively only said one surname.

"Hello, Liu Zimeng! My name is Gu Yu, Gu who takes care of me, and I am in the third (3) class of the fifteenth middle school. ”

"Hey, how did you know my name?" Liu Zimeng's eyes widened in surprise.

"The world is so small, it's normal to know your name......"

“……？” Liu Zimeng's mouth opened wide, and he was still very curious about how the boy in front of him knew his name.

Gu Yu turned sideways, got out of the way, and said with a smile: "Liu Zimeng, it's not too early, we'll see you tomorrow!" ”

"Oh, goodbye......"

Say goodbye to Liu Zimeng, after crossing Baiyi Lane, turn right into a small alley, and come to the Henghe Street community where Ruan Tanhui's house is located.

The "meat ball" family lives in the middle unit on the first floor of the first row.

When Gu Yu came to the door of his house, Ruan Tanhui was cheering hard for his mother Lu Xiuqin's women's 26-inch Phoenix bicycle.

Meat ball is a big dutiful son.

"Xiaoyu, I haven't seen you for a long time, after a summer vacation, you seem to have grown a lot taller!" After Lu Xiuqin saw Gu Yu, she greeted with a smile, and took out a large meat bun from the kitchen by the door and stuffed it into Gu Yu's hand, "Taste the taste of the handmade buns made by Auntie herself." ”

"Auntie, I've already eaten ......"

"Xiaoyu, you are growing at the age of your body, it doesn't matter if you eat more!"

"Thank you, Auntie."

Gu Yu and the meat ball were gnawing on the road one by one, and when they were about to arrive at the school, there was a noise of gongs and drums in the distance.

"What is this doing?" Gu Yu said curiously.

"Today is the first day of the opening of Xinjiangqiao, and my mother will not have to take a long detour to work from now on......," Rou Tuan said casually.

The first day of the opening of the Xinjiang Bridge! Mom of the meat ball!

Suddenly, Gu Yu was suddenly frightened, trembling all over, and then dropped the bun in his mouth and ran towards Ruan Tanhui's house like crazy.

"Boss, are you crazy?"

Leaving Ruan Tanhui alone behind him to shout.
