Chapter 36: It's Okay, I'm Here
Zeng Meiyue hurriedly opened a shop when she came back from her mother's house and continued to do business in the afternoon.
Su Manjin put the New Year's money given by his grandfather into the "lockbox", and sat at the table and looked through the box of extracurricular reading materials for primary school students given by Uncle Sheng Rong a few years ago.
Su Manjin took it and left it in the house casually, and now he noticed that there was a beautiful bookmark on the book set.
It reads: "There are three ways to read, which is the heart, the eyes, and the mouth." If the heart is not here, the eyes are not careful, the heart and eyes are not single-minded, but they only read and read, and they must not remember, and they cannot be long. Among the three, the heart is the most anxious, and the heart is there, and the eyes and mouth don't care? ——Zhu Xi's "Discipline and Zhai Rules". ”
There are a total of 12 books in this set, all of which are phonetic editions, including: "Three Character Classics, Hundred Family Names, Thousand Family Poems", "The Complete Works of Grimm's Fairy Tales", "Three Sending Young Readers", "Idiom Stories 365", "Selected Chinese Contemporary Children's Poetry", "Five Thousand Years Up and Down" and other familiar classic readings.
Su Manjin muttered: "Uncle Sheng Rong is also attentive, and it is indeed suitable for reading in primary school." Just enough to show Xiao Jinyang. ”
There are several books in it that Su Manjin has never read in his previous life. It was rare to have time today, so she took "Five Thousand Years Up and Down" from the box, sat on the edge of the bed, and read it with relish.
After reading it for a while, I remembered the dynasty of the previous life, and I somehow felt that it was very suitable for this book, so I sat back at the table, picked up the pen, and wrote on the title page of the book.
"Three emperors and five emperors, Yao Shunyu passed down. Xia Shang and Western Zhou, Eastern Zhou are divided into two sections. The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period unified the Qin and Han dynasties. Three points of Shu Wei Wu, two Jin Dynasty before and after. The northern and southern dynasties stood side by side, the Sui and Tang dynasties were passed down for five generations, and after the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, the dynasty was over. ”
The little girl nested alone in the house, flipping through the books, entertaining herself, but also leisurely.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the house, the corners of Su Manjin's mouth raised slightly, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Xiao Jinyang running in like a small hot wheel.
Su Manjin smiled and touched his brother's little head: "Didn't my sister tell you, walk well, don't rush around, lest you bump into it!" ”
Xiao Jinyang smiled and said, "I know, Sister~~ A little brother came to the yard and said he was looking for you~"
"Who is it?" Su Manjin was puzzled.
"Sister, I asked", the little guy said in a straight voice: "He said his name is Su Xusheng." ”
Su Manjin: !!
The little guy didn't expect that as soon as his voice fell, he saw that Sister A, who was still teaching herself just now to walk well and not rush around, had already run out at the moment and disappeared.
Su Jinyang: ......
Su Xusheng was sitting quietly on the stone bench next to the round table in the courtyard. He leaned in the direction of the room, his hands on his knees, and behaved.
At this time, if someone looks closely, they will find that the boy's eyes are gray, and the fingers on his knees are constantly pinching his pants, as if he is trembling slightly.
After a while, a pink figure rushed out of Su Xusheng's sight.
The girl stood still in front of him, gasping slightly, her smile still bright and beautiful.
"Su Xiaosheng, you're here!" The girl's voice was crisp and graceful like a lark.
Su Xusheng couldn't help but show a stiff smile.
She has always been so agile and vibrant, but she is like a lonely soul walking in the dark, lonely and helpless.
But since the day I met her, there has always been a ray of sunshine in my heart.
She said: We are good friends, if you have any problems, you can come to me at any time. I can help you think of a way together, even if it is to listen to your grievances and talk about your heart, it is better than resisting by yourself.
Su Xusheng stared at the girl in front of her, she was like a delicate rose, blooming her own unique brilliance to the world.
"Su Xiaosheng, what's wrong with you?" Su Manjin saw that there was something wrong with the boy's mood, and asked softly gently.
Su Xusheng came back to his senses, lowered his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him, and his voice was hoarse: "Su Xiaoman, I'm not happy today." ”
The boy's expression revealed a trace of vulnerability, and Su Manjin heard a trace of grievance and helplessness in his voice.
She reached out and gently hugged him, patting him on the back slightly.
"It's okay, I'm here. Su Xiaosheng, don't be afraid, I'll accompany you. ”
Su Xusheng was frozen by the sudden hug, his chin rested on the girl's neck socket, the tip of his nose lingered with the faint aroma of milk on the girl's body, and the hot breath spit out when the girl spoke seemed to burn the roots of his ears.
The girl hugged him for a moment, then let go of him, and then naturally took his hand and walked home.
"Xiaoman......" Su Xusheng felt that it might not be very good for the Chinese New Year and the family to be reunited, and he suddenly came to her like this. He was just so sad in his heart that he couldn't control his desire to come and see her.
Su Manjin seemed to know his heart, and reassured: "It's okay, only my uncle is resting in the house, and the other elders have gone out to visit the house." I'll take you to a secret base. ”
Su Xusheng obediently walked into the hall by the girl's hand.
She asked him to sit down for a while, then went to the kitchen and took out a small basin, put a carton of milk in the basin, and took out a thermos and filled the basin with hot water.
She took out her basin and a new towel from the house, added hot water to the basin, wrung the hot towel, and handed it to Su Xusheng.
"Come on, it's a little cold outside, you can wipe your face, wash your hands in a while, and eat something first."
Su Xusheng whispered: "I'm not hungry......"
The girl was strong and said in a coquettish voice: "Obedient~"
Su Xusheng obediently took the towel and wiped his face. But when he saw that the white towel was dusty after wiping it, his face turned red.
Su Manjin saw his crampedness, reached out to pick up the towel, and said with a smile: "What's this, it's just that there is a lot of dust on the road, so it's more comfortable for you to wipe your face, just wash it, it's okay~"
Su Xusheng said that he wouldn't give her the towel anymore. He rewrung a handful of towels by himself, wiped his face again, washed the towel and carried the water to the well at the door and poured it out, washed his hands by the way, and then went into the house and returned it to Su Manjin.
Su Manjin casually put the basin and towel to the side.
She took out the carton of milk, tested the temperature of the bottle with her hands, plugged in the straw and handed it to Su Xusheng.
The girl smiled like a flower, "Drink some warm milk, this is my favorite milk, share it with you~"
Su Xusheng silently took the milk and took a sip obediently.
Su Manjin handed him a small plate of dim sum, saying that it was dim sum, but it was actually fried kueh, fried fish pieces, and fried chicken thighs prepared by grandma for the New Year.
Su Xusheng didn't want to eat it, but the girl pouted, her eyes were threatening, and she stared at him blankly.
With a light sigh, he ate slowly.
Su Xusheng didn't eat at lunch, as his stomach was gradually filled, and then he was looked at by the girl's caring eyes, he felt the temperature of his body gradually warming.
Su Manjin waited for Su Xusheng to finish eating, cleaned up briefly, and pulled him to his own stairs.
"Take you to my secret base to see~ Every time I'm unhappy, I'll go up there for a while."
