Chapter 4: Goodbye Xiao Xuan
The old man looked up at me carefully, and then said slowly: "You're not Xiao Xuan's classmate, why don't she know where she lives, you used to come often." ”
I was speechless again, apparently this old man knew me, at least nineteen years ago.
It's right in the middle of the third floor, and the stairs go up to the first room on the left. The old lady looked at me kindly and pityingly, as if she were pitying me for being as forgetful as an old man at a young age.
I hurriedly thanked him, hurried upstairs, ran to the door of the room, knocked on it, and waited for my memories of the past to open it.
The door opened, and a slender and beautiful girl in a pale green skirt stood in front of the door, "Is it Zhao Xiaoxuan?" I looked at her and asked in amazement. The girl was also very surprised, and of course I thought it was surprised why I was asking.
"It's you, what's wrong with you, you don't seem to know me?"
Xiao Xuan suddenly smiled, smiling extremely brightly and happily. "You, you won't come to see me after the exam, I thought you wouldn't come again, the old classmates have forgotten."
"Oh", I said with a smile, "I just got the notice." ”
"Really, which university?"
"Hangzhou University, Department of Chinese."
"Oh, that's nice."
There was a little joy and a little sadness in Xiao Xuan's eyes. "You're so much better than me, my dad told me to take the test again next year."
So it sees, it seems that Zhao Xiaoxuan did not get into the undergraduate score line, so she will finally be able to power up. I thought about it and said to her, "Oh, it's okay, just take it easy." ”
I went on to say, "It's okay Xiao Xuan, college is actually not interesting. I heard that the Chinese Department of Hangzhou University reads like a family, basically playing for four years, so let's celebrate my four-year vacation. ”
Xiao Xuan leaned on the door of the room and smiled happily and said, "Okay, okay, you want to have a treat." ”
I said, "Of course, I'll treat you to Pizza Hut, Hawaiian style pizza, haha." ”
My smile froze suddenly, and apparently Xiao Xuan's confused look reminded me that there were no Pizza Hut in 1990, and to be honest, I had forgotten what kind of restaurants were in the area of Daxue Road more than a decade ago.
I took a breath, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Let's go out for a walk first, I haven't walked with you in a long time." Well, I'll invite you to a bottle of Coke first, and then we'll discuss where to eat lunch, can you? ”
Xiao Xuan was still very confused and looked at me strangely, and my heart was empty, and I began to doubt the popularity of Coca-Cola in 1990.
Fortunately, Xiao Xuan's confusion was quickly dispelled by the happy mood, and she shouted loudly to the house, "Dad, I'll go out with Xiao Xu, and I won't come back for lunch." With that, she dragged me downstairs.
She took my hand very naturally, and I could feel that her palm was very soft and smooth, in recent years, except for my wife's hand, it seems that I have never touched other women's hands.
When we came to the gate of Daxue Road Primary School, Xiao Xuan naturally pulled me into the small iron gate of the school and came to the playground. The playground is not large, and it is surrounded by a circle of willow trees and countless blooming pink roses on the low wall. I thought about it for a while, and then I thought, maybe, we also came to this elementary school on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve?
Xiao Xuan walked over to a cement bench under the willow tree and motioned for me to sit down as well.
"When are you going to report for duty?"
"Probably the first of September."
"Then I'll go to see you then, I heard that Hangda is very good."
"Uh-huh."
In fact, I didn't pay attention to when Xiao Xuan came to Hangzhou University to see me, what I saw was Xiao Xuan's white and tender legs right in front of my eyes, why did I have no impression of this beautiful leg. Looking at Xiao Xuan's thin face, I didn't expect that his legs were still quite plump, with extremely beautiful curves, and the snow white and pink were cute.
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly remembered something, and my mind turned to the question of money. I felt in my pants pocket and found that I didn't have a wallet, to be precise, at the age of eighteen, I didn't have a wallet at all.
I'm starting to figure out how to solve the problem of eating in a minute.
Xiao Xuan was still there and said softly: "Xiao Xu, you have always had good grades, it seems that you can do well in the exam if you don't work hard, I can't do it, I've worked hard, but when I encounter a major exam, I lie in my heart, my mind is blank, I think about taking the exam again next year, I'm a little bored, so annoying." ”
"Xiao Xu, what are you in a daze, what are you looking at?"
Xiao Xuan may have noticed that my eyes were always downward, and my face was expressionless, and I didn't know what I was thinking in a daze, so I asked Zhengse.
I woke up from my contemplation, looked at Xiao Xuan's face, and said, "It's nothing, I just got a little distracted." ”
Then I added, "Xiao Xuan, you are so beautiful today." ”
Xiao Xuan immediately blushed, lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time. I also quietly stopped talking, only listening to the summer song singing on the willow tree, the wind blowing the willow branches, swaying slowly, the light and shadow kept flickering under the tree, such a scene was beautiful, so beautiful that I forgot many things more than ten years later.
After a while, Xiao Xuan said very softly: "Xiao Xu, I like you." ”
