gentle fairy tale

Make-up classes during the summer vacation is an inhuman torture for students who are about to enter a higher school.Finally, July passed, but the days in August were hotter than before.In the afternoon, even the grasshoppers on the trees were tired and stopped clamoring.

Fortunately, the last day of make-up classes for the summer vacation has finally arrived.

Inside the window, there are thick exercise books on the desks in the classroom.The students were listless, staring at the blackboard with dull eyes, as if they had nothing to love.

The last class is a discussion class with the head teacher, Lao Xiong.He is a very caring Chinese teacher. He often tries his best to mobilize the enthusiasm of students, make excerpts for them, and take them to watch movies. Let's go to the movies."

The students got excited and said lazily: "Teacher, what are we watching? Isn't it watching cartoons again?"

Teacher Xiong asked cheerfully, "Don't want to watch cartoons? What do you want to watch?"

"love story!"

The old bear had a serious face: "Nonsense!"

He ignored the students, lowered his head and opened the computer browser, and was just about to search for the URL of the video, but accidentally clicked on a pop-up message—the top was a rainbow that covered half the screen, and the title font was still beating: "Same-sex The Marriage Act is officially passed!"

It seems that some students paid attention to this matter: "Wow! I voted online before! It really passed?"

Someone echoed: "Do you vote for or against?"

The first one to speak was a girl who is usually very lively. She cast her eyes on the old bear and found that the old bear was not angry. She just nodded slightly, and then she boldly continued: "Of course I voted for it. We are born free as human beings."

Old Xiong's eyes lit up. It is true that he is a Chinese teacher, but he is actually a student of Western philosophy. He has always paid attention to words such as 'freedom', 'equality' and 'love', and he also appreciates the expressions of young children today. attitude, nodded affirmatively: "Lu Xiaoshu, stand up and express your point of view."

The girl stood up, her chin raised high, and her tone was brisk: "What kind of person do you like, in essence, it is a matter of dopamine secretion in the brain. Love is instinct, but who can guarantee that the person you love is the opposite sex?"

Cao Mingxuan, the school committee member, frowned: "But only when a man and a woman are together can they get married and have children!"

More voices came out: "Who said women must have children!"

"But...without children, how can this society survive... Besides, heterosexual marriage has been a social consensus for so long, and homosexual love...isn't that much?"

"...I think so too. Although I love the gays in the Two-dimensional anime, but the real world... I don't like it."

Yu Mian originally lowered her head to draw a sparrow on the telephone pole outside the window, but the tip of her pen gradually stopped. She still lowered her head, but she was still listening to the fierce arguments of her classmates.Because of the negative argument just now, the class became noisy for a while, with some people supporting it and others opposing it.

She put down her pen, her delicate brows furrowed a little, and she listened to their continuation.

"Who cares if you like it or not? It's their own choice!"

"But I feel so disgusting... No, hey, I can't say that, but this incident will make many people feel uncomfortable, right?"

Old Xiong showed a gratified smile. He never followed the rules when teaching, and felt that it was a very interesting attempt to stimulate students to pay attention to social issues and think about human rights.

He took notes quickly, without interrupting.

Until the bell rang for the end of class, and the quarrel in the class was still not over, the old bear made a quiet gesture: "Okay, students, today's class is over. I know you can't convince each other, but it doesn't matter. I I believe time will give you the answer, well, class is over. Everyone pay attention to safety during the holidays, don’t go swimming in the river, keep studying, work and rest regularly, and eat healthy. See you at the beginning of school.”

His word 'holiday' awakened the quiet cells of the boys and girls, and instantly put the heated discussion behind him: "My mother! It's finally a holiday!"

The classroom was full of voices complaining about homework, making appointments to sing and eat, but Yu Mian was in a trance. She didn't know much about the bill, so she didn't participate in the speech from the beginning to the end.She just subconsciously felt that what Cao Mingxuan and the others said was wrong, but that was not the case.

She suddenly wanted to... know a little more.

"Cub? Let's go!"

Xu Xiaoyan stood at the door of the classroom and called her, Yu Mian came back to her senses, stood up and packed her schoolbag: "I'll be right away, 2 minutes!"

Coming out of school, Xu Xiaoyan dragged Yu Mian into the bookstore, excitedly bought a bunch of comics and novels, and met her mother as soon as she left the bookstore.It was too late and then too soon, she stuffed the book into Yu Mian's arms, and then waved to Zhao Ruo: "Mom!"

Zhao Ruo walked over on high heels: "Buying books again? Reading novels every day, how much myopia has increased, what did the doctor say, don't you remember?"

The parents of the Xu family are very open-minded, and they never ask their children about learning, but they have always been strict in terms of physical health, especially Xu Xiaoyan has hereditary myopia, and her eyesight has not been very good since she was a child, so Zhao Ruo pays special attention to protecting her. vision.

Xu Xiaoyan didn't blink her eyes when she talked nonsense: "Mom! This is a long book!"

Yu Mian paused for a moment, and realized instantly: "Yes, Aunt Zhao, this is my book, it's a bit heavy, just now Xiaoyan gave me a hug."

Zhao Ruo gave her a half-believing glance, until the driver came to pick her up, and the girl got into the car with a thick stack of books, she reluctantly believed it, and patted her daughter's face: "Okay, let's go."

Yu Mian sat in the car, staring at the hurriedly receding scenery outside the window in a daze, still thinking about the class discussion just now—the same-sex marriage bill, does it mean that women and women can also marry?

She didn't know why she thought of this question, but the more she thought about it, the more fascinated she became... Why not, everyone has the right to like others, why should they care whether this person is a man or a woman?

"beep--"

The moment the driver pressed the horn, she came back to herself in a daze: "Uncle Wei, are you home yet?"

Wei Ming turned around and smiled: "It will take a while, there is a traffic jam, are you in a hurry?"

Yu Mian shook her head: "I'm not in a hurry, it doesn't matter if you drive slowly."

She just wanted to... Go home and use the computer to look up information about that bill.

There was a traffic jam on the road for a while, and it was a little later than usual when I got home.Yu Mian hugged the book that Xu Xiaoyan gave her, and remembered the crazy wink from her friend at that time.Hey, these books are probably going to be kept with her for a while.

Sometimes, Yu Mian is also shocked by Xu Xiaoyan's unusually rich hobbies and leisure life... Anime, fandom, comics, metal badges, novels, Xiaoyan seems to like a lot of things, and she doesn't have a lot of grandeur about the future and life in her heart The goal, but she is the happiest person Yu Mian has ever met, and she knows how to enjoy life the most.

When he got home, Pei Songxi didn't seem to be back yet.Yu Mian sat down on the sofa and arranged the books she brought back one by one. There were more than a dozen comic magazines, five romance novels, and two pure love novels mixed in—she was stunned, pure love is What?

She wanted to look through it, but there was already the sound of a key turning outside the door.

Yu Mian felt flustered for no reason, quickly put away the book, hugged her in her arms and ran upstairs, but was still seen by Pei Songxi: "Mianmian, why don't you go upstairs instead of eating?"

"Well... I'll go up and put down the book."

Pei Songxi put down her handbag, stood in the air conditioner and blew a cool breeze: "Why are there so many books, are they all homework?"

Yu Mian has never lied to her before, except for the little excuse of 'menstrual period' last time, she was a little flustered when she asked her now, and faltered: "No... I, I went up first!"

Pei Songxi called her: "Slow down, be careful not to fall."

Yu Mian gave a vague hum, ran back to her room, closed the door, touched her forehead, only to find that her cheeks were hot and she was sweating again.

weird...

In fact, she can tell Aunt Pei openly that these are Xiaoyan's books, and she didn't buy them.But...But when she saw the scene of the protagonists hugging and kissing each other on the cover, she subconsciously felt embarrassed.

Hey, it's all because of the movie that Xiaoyan took them to watch... Now she can't face these things... In fact, kissing is not a big deal, when she was young, she always had to kiss Aunt Pei Woolen cloth!

She found out the storage box and put Xiaoyan's books in neatly. She moved carefully, not even creasing the corners of the books, and then pushed them under the bed, breathing a sigh of relief.

Yu Mian packed up the books before going down to eat.

She looked a little absent-minded today, and didn't even take a few bites of her favorite braised short ribs and steamed eggs. Pei Songxi sandwiched a piece of ribs for her: "Mian Mian?"

"Ok?"

"Have you lost your appetite?"

Yu Mian hummed, then lowered her head: "Maybe... Maybe it's because the weather is a little hot."

Pei Songxi was a little worried: "It's been too hot outside recently, so I don't need to go to school tomorrow, just rest at home and be careful of heatstroke.

Yu Mian nodded: "I know. Old Xiong said today that we should study at home and work regularly. By the way... Aunt Pei, do you know..."

Yu Mian thought of Lao Xiong, and remembered today's class discussion. She didn't know why she kept thinking about it, and she couldn't help but ask Pei Songxi, "That... the same-sex marriage bill?"

Pei Songxi was slightly startled: "Well, I know, what's wrong?"

Because she met Ji Xiunian a few days ago, she knew from her that the bill had been passed, and also heard about some of the contents of the bill, but it didn't have much to do with her, and she didn't pay attention.

"Then you know," Yu Mian looked at her with sparkling eyes, "Now that the girls are together, can they get married?"

Pei Songxi smiled: "I know."

Maybe she will be able to attend Ji Xiunian and Zhou Lang's wedding soon, Xiunian also said that she would invite Mianmian to go there together, but the matter is not settled yet, she has no plans to tell Yumian yet.

Yu Mian groaned, and when she heard that she knew, she smiled subconsciously: "So you know. What do you think of this bill?"

Pei Songxi didn't understand why she would ask such a question. Just as she was about to answer, she suddenly remembered... Before Mianmian said that she liked pretty sisters, she thought she was joking, but she didn't take it seriously.Now it seems that this child really likes the same sex?

That's why she was so angry and wronged after Teacher Xiong mistakenly thought that she and Tao Rang had a puppy love... But I don't know who she likes, is it a female classmate in the class?

Now, is Mianmian testing her opinion and attitude?

Did you care so much about her answer because you were afraid she would object?

"Say it! Aunt Pei! What do you think of this?"

Yu Mian looked at her steadfastly, asking her for an answer, her eyes full of searching meaning.

Pei Songxi considered her words carefully, paying attention to her emotions: "This matter...Of course I support it. It is a person's freedom to like the same sex or the opposite sex. As for... Marrying a girl is actually very good."

"Really, so you think so!"

Yu Mian smiled subconsciously, she didn't know how she could be so happy.

The ends of her eyes curved beautifully because of her smile, and her pupils were filled with tiny lights: "I'm the same as you! I think so too!"

Pei Songxi observed her expression silently, and suddenly thought... so it is like this, no wonder Mianmian has always disliked boys, because she likes girls.

She has nothing against her being with girls her age.

I just don't know, who does she like?
