Xia Bao

After the evening self-study, the students were dumbfounded as soon as they left the gate of the teaching building.

After a freezing rain, as the temperature dropped at night, the whole ground became a big smooth and shiny skating rink, with nowhere to hide and nowhere to go around, slipping and falling.

Qin Feng came over from home after dinner and brought an umbrella, a black umbrella with a pointed end and a long handle.At this moment, it happens to be used as a crutch in reverse.

Huang Tao tugged at Qin Feng's sleeve tremblingly, and the old lady followed suit like bound feet: "Brother Feng, slow down..."

There were many people in the front and back who fell into gourds, Qin Feng and Huang Tao walked carefully and sweated all over their bodies. At this moment, they couldn't help their youthful heart, gloating and laughing.

Extreme joy begets sorrow, Huang Tao got carried away with complacency, slipped under his feet and directly knelt down.

"Aiqing is flat." Qin Feng tried to pull him up, but he also fell down on the ice due to his unsteady center of gravity.This pain in the tailbone bar.

Qin Feng cursed a few words, plunged the tip of the umbrella into the thin ice, and stood up with support.

Huang Tao smiled while rubbing his knees, his squinted eyes looked like crescent moons, illuminated by the orange street lights of the school, the hot air from his mouth and nose turned into white mist, his lips were faintly red and his teeth were white——

"How do you look like a little girl tonight?" Qin Feng glanced at him, but couldn't tell what was strange.

Huang Tao's hair is half-length but not long, and it is a bit brown under the light, as if he is malnourished. He is also very white and thin. His eyes are fluttering behind the thick-bottomed lenses, often like a frightened rabbit.

"Get out." Huang Tao is no longer afraid of Qin Feng, sometimes he dares to speak out, for example at this moment: "You are just like a little girl."

Qin Feng leaned on a cane with one hand, hooked Huang Tao's neck with the other, and pressed his whole body weight like a landlord bully: "What the hell are you, you bean sprouts?! You won't be able to rent a house for three days?"

Huang Tao blushed all of a sudden, his eyes dodged in panic, and he desperately tried to break Qin Feng's arm from clamping him: "Don't make trouble, or you'll fall again..."

Before the end of the conversation, Lin Weimin, the second idiot who roared from behind, rushed forward with great joy, and the three of them rushed to the street together.

"I fuck your mother!" Qin Feng stood up furiously, wanting to kick someone but afraid of falling himself: "Lin Weimin, you are so heartless!"

Lin Weimin was lying on the ground laughing: "Dude, this self-study tonight is really not in vain, it's so much fun, come on, come on, Fengzi, buddy, let's pretend to fly together with you..."

After fighting and leaving the school gate, many parents stood outside to pick up their children. In the face of disastrous weather, all kinds of sharp weapons were available, among which Qin Feng had the most umbrellas.

Lin Weimin's father came to pick him up, Qin Feng politely called Uncle Lin to say hello, and walked home slowly with Huang Tao.

After walking for 10 minutes, Qin Feng suddenly realized that Huang Tao had been silent for a long time.

It's not that Huang Tao is usually talkative, it's just that this kid has a childish heart, and he can happily bluff for a long time when we go skating in the yellow mud together. Right now, this large natural ice rink should be more cheerful.

"Silly roe deer, your tongue was taken away by the cat? Why are you playing so deep?"

Huang Tao adjusted his glasses, lowered his head: "I don't, I'm not, didn't I concentrate on watching the road..." After a pause, Huang Tao changed the subject: "Brother Feng, your girlfriend is in University A?"

Qin Feng laughed: "Listen to Lin Weimin, that bastard."

Huang Tao let out a sigh and didn't ask again, but Qin Feng remembered, and asked casually without any hope: "You said if I want to return a gift, something new, what should I return?"

Huang Tao miraculously understood such a nonsensical question: "I did it myself."

"Did you do it yourself?" Qin Feng let out a sigh: "Shall I fold a paper frog? Or chop a wooden nail and send the box gun? Stop kidding."

"The gift shop at the entrance of the first shop sells red beans. You can string them up with fishing line, and you can wear them on your hands and around your neck." Huang Tao lowered his head, and his voice was a little muffled: "I heard what the girls in the class said, It seems to be very popular now."

Qin Feng didn't hear it clearly: "Ah? What are you talking about? Red beans? Just my mother's red bean porridge? The gift shop still sells this? Put it on a chain and send it? You're so stupid?... If you really want to give it away, you can give it to me. You have to buy a sack to look good, don't you?"

"This red bean is not that red bean." Huang Tao was in a hurry, raised his eyes and looked at him and explained seriously: "It's the red bean from the southern country."

"Red beans are born in the South." Qin Feng read aloud, and suddenly understood: "Acacia beans? Fuck, just the thing that Wang Lili, Jiang Yan and the others talk about all day? Goosebumps are getting up! My old man Give this thing away?! I’m going to lose face? Hey, it’s useless to ask you, nerd.”

"I'm not a nerd." Huang Tao defended himself in a low voice.

"All right, it's not a nerd, it's a little girl." Qin Feng replied perfunctorily, watching Ma Xiuli walking towards her with an umbrella, "Mom, why are you here? I brought an umbrella."

"What a horrible weather." Ma Xiuli wiped the sweat off her forehead with a sigh of relief, and nodded when she saw Huang Tao beside her son: "Xiao Tao, just looking at your mother, she didn't dare to walk fast, she was behind me , came from the small shop of the Second Committee, so don't go astray."

Huang Tao called aunt obediently, and let go of the hand that had been holding Qin Feng: "Then I'm going to meet my mother. Goodbye, auntie, goodbye brother Feng."

"Hey." Qin Feng yelled twice but didn't stop anyone. Seeing the little man scrambling and scrambling, he walked away in a panic, and disappeared into the darkness: "I don't even need to borrow his umbrella, why should I?" Didn't you realize that this kid has pretty fast legs? Are you alive?"

It was four or ten minutes before I got home.

Qin Feng washed his hands and face, brushed his teeth, made a set of papers as usual, and then opened the letter paper to write a letter.

He described today's extreme weather, which is rare once in a hundred years, to Qin Xia. His tone was exaggerated, and he made himself laugh when he read it back.

"... Lin Weimin, who has no tendons, hit me and sat on the ground, and the tailbone hurt..."

Staring at the sentence that damaged his tall and mighty image, Qin Feng finally did not delete it, carefully folded the letter paper in four, and put it in an envelope.

red beans.

Qin Feng snorted, and couldn't help laughing himself.I'm really going to be stupid. I sent the red beans over, I guess Qin Xia would be disgusted to death haha.Why don't you just play tricks on him and see if you can spit out the overnight meal?

In the end, Qin Feng didn't think of something suitable and different, so he spent three nights carving a small wooden pendant and stringing a key ring, which can be regarded as a small handicraft.

Growing up so big, Qin Feng has never spent this kind of thought to please others, and he has never even bothered to chase girls.

It's just that these thoughts came naturally, not at all forced, even if Qin Feng is not good at wood carving, clumsy and even scratched his hand, he still enjoys doing it.

A two-inch long and simple panda pendant is finished, and the workmanship is a bit rough, but I am full of heart.

Qin Feng carved out the shape with a knife, and finely ground all the thorns with sandpaper. He used a brush dipped in black ink to paint on the limbs, ears and eye sockets, and also covered the blood stains that seeped into the wood—fortunately, it was on the left side. On the arm, otherwise there is no way to cover it.

Ashamed of self-praise and paradoxically wanting to be taken seriously.In the letter, Qin Feng mentioned secretly and nonchalantly that he made a pendant for Qin Xia to hang on the key of the dormitory.

In fact, it can be considered targeted.Once, Qin Xia mentioned in a letter, complaining that she couldn't find the key to her dormitory all the time, so she just jumped on a small thing like that, and the goal was too small.

After the item was sent, Qin Feng began to anxiously hope for a reply.

As a result, there was no waiting for a reply. A week later, Qin Xia called directly.

............................................................

On Friday night, Ma Xiuli's unit had dinner.

Originally, since Qin Yuan passed away, Ma Xiuli was so depressed that she couldn't get excited about anything, and she didn't want to go to this kind of entertainment.Later, it was Qin Feng who persuaded him, and unknowingly used Qin Xia's words.

My dad missed us all the time until he left, mom, you have to live a happy life.How many people are not so lucky, and the noisy wives are separated.

Ma Xiuli couldn't hold back her son, so she pulled herself together and tried to get out of the shadow of losing her husband.Later, it took more than half a year before I regained the vitality of the serious injury, and my work and life gradually returned to normal.

Qin Feng was too lazy to cook when he got home, so he boiled Bao Huafeng and ate an egg, and soon sat down at the desk when his stomach was full.

That's when the phone rang.

"Xiaofeng, I received the things." Qin Xia's voice was full of undisguised joy: "Thank you auntie for me, it's really troublesome."

Qin Feng was also happy when he heard that he was happy: "Don't worry, I bought them all, and I didn't go to the mountain to pick them myself."

Qin Xia's laughter was very crisp, like the kind of big pearls and small pearls falling on a jade plate written in ancient Chinese: "I'm already very grateful, and you still go to the mountains to pick them. You are really poor."

Itching to laugh at him, Qin Feng said it slyly: "I'm not bragging, I've picked hazelnuts and pine nuts myself. Have you ever seen a big pine cone? It's the kind of pine cone that hasn't produced pine nuts yet? I have two fists It’s so big. Once, Lin Weimin and I looked at a very tall pine tree in Yonghong Mountain. The pine tower was so big. Lin Weimin tried his best to climb up to pick it. In the end, he fell from the tree and rolled his eyes. Shouting hahaha..."

Qin Xia laughed along, like two little fools.

It was very quiet over there, as if Qin Xia was the only one in the dormitory.

"Thank you, Xiaofeng." Qin Xia changed the subject suddenly: "I really like keychains, I can't see that you still have this skill."

Qin Feng was so embarrassed by the rare praise, his face was slightly red and his ears were hot: "Hehe, the little things are really not worth mentioning, and there is nothing to buy here in Donglin. Just as long as you don't dislike it."

"Why do you dislike it?" Qin Xia's voice seemed to be right next to her ears, with a warm temperature: "You made it yourself, I will hang it up all the time, ha, I won't miss the key in the future."

Looking down at the remaining pale pink scar on his finger, Qin Feng rubbed it with his thumb, pursed his lips silently, and laughed.

"Calling with your girlfriend? It's like glue." Qin Feng heard the loud voice that broke in suddenly and the sound of the door hitting the wall.

"It's my younger brother." Listening to Qin Xia's explanation, Qin Feng's tone was so bland that he couldn't hear any emotion, it was completely different from the one who laughed like a fool 2 minutes ago.

"Damn it." That roommate was obviously not the soft-spoken Wu Nong from last time, with a rough voice full of frivolity, which is a trait Qin Feng is very familiar with and also has in Lin Weimin: "Look at your smiling face, say no Who would believe adultery? Oh, no—"

"Gao Jingye, please be careful what you say." It was the first time Qin Feng heard Qin Xia being so rude to someone.

It's a pity that he scratched his head anxiously here, unable to crawl along the wires to come out and beat people.

Small-pussy.Qin Feng cursed secretly in his heart, you wait for me, when I take the exam to A University next year, I will beat you to the ground!

That Gao Jingye didn't continue to yell, and apparently left again after 2 minutes with the door knocking.

"Your dormitory still has this kind of vicious dog that doesn't bite anyone?" Qin Feng couldn't help it: "You have thin arms and legs, don't do anything, bear with it, and wait until I go to avenge you!"

Qin Xia chuckled: "It doesn't matter what he does, whoever is insane will bite. By the way, have you listened to the tape I sent? There are also review materials."

When mentioning this, Qin Feng was a little guilty, he hesitated: "Listen, listen, it's good..."

Qin Xia knew it well, and sighed insignificantly: "There are only five subjects in the college entrance examination, and you will suffer a lot if your scores are serious."

"I'll listen, I'll listen," Qin Feng couldn't hear him disappointed, and quickly agreed: "I promise to change from listening twice a week to listening every day, okay?"

"Okay," Qin Xia paused, as if thinking: "From now on, I will call you every Friday night at this time. Between 06:30 and [-] o'clock..."

Qin Feng was overjoyed, and nodded his head like garlic: "Okay, okay..."

"English Corner Time." Qin Xia added with a smile, and finally gave poor Qin Feng a stick.
