wish spirit

"Are you and Yu Wei in the same class?" Zou Lanjuan asked with a smile as she served Cheng Zhi a bowl of soup.

A woman is in her early forties, and there are already a few silver strands in her hair. When she smiles, you can clearly see wrinkles in the corners of her eyes. Cheng Zhi thought of Dou Hang's mother, who is also in her 40s, but she is well maintained and dressed elegantly. , is completely different from Tang Yuwei's mother.

But the same is the tone of speech and the look in the eyes of loving children.

Like Dou Hang, who would be scolded by her mother every day, but she still rubbed her ears and said "I'm leaving" while putting on her shoes.

"Mom, I told you that you are not in the same class, why are you asking again..." Tang Yuwei muttered while biting her chopsticks.

"Oh, let me ask what's wrong? Didn't I forget?" Zou Lanjuan glanced at her daughter, then turned to look at Cheng Zhi.

Cheng Zhi smiled, "The class next door."

Tang Yuwei's way of getting along with her family is completely different from the blunt appearance at school. It seems that the whole person has taken off his armor, soft and vivid.

"The class next door? Tang Yuwei can still meet the classmates in the class next door..." Zou Lanjuan vaguely remembered that during this period of time, her daughter was not as lifeless as before when she came home every day. He was smiling and seemed to be in a good mood.

Tang Yuwei's head was almost soaked in the bowl.

Her mother is very fast-talking, but she just doesn't remember things. She didn't say anything to her, and she forgot it in a blink of an eye. Judging from the appearance of her and Ms. Zou Lanjuan, it was their own, and their noses were not straight. Except for the skin, Tang Yuwei never felt that she had gained any benefits.

Look, if you disagree with me, you start to look down on your daughter.

Speaking of this point, Comrade Zou Lanjuan really instilled in Tang Yuwei a big pot of ideas that "other people's children are very good" since she was a child. She seriously doubts that her inferiority complex that follows her everywhere is deliberately "cultivated" since she was a child. , take root too deeply, and you can't get rid of it when you are old.

But there is also an advantage. When she has low self-esteem, she will learn to laugh at herself at a certain time, but she has grown up before she has learned to put on an optimistic and self-deprecating look in front of others.

"They're all in the same age group. I don't see you when you look up. Tang Yuwei is a nice person, and she's good at badminton." Cheng Zhi looked very casual. She sat there so nonchalantly, as if she had integrated into this scene all at once. In a place that was still unfamiliar to her before.

After Tang Yuwei heard Cheng Zhi's agreement, she secretly raised her tail to the sky.

It's not that she hasn't been praised. From childhood, both relatives and neighbors say that she is sensible, can cook at a young age, and often follows her father when he is still delivering goods in the county, but in fact she I didn't want to do this at all, but I easily succumbed to the tired eyes of my parents.

When others were still coquettishly asking her parents to buy this or that, she learned to restrain herself without a teacher, buried that little desire in her heart, and finally fell silent when her parents occasionally talked about the lack of money at home or where to use it. money.

She seems to be born with a lot of thinking, and then she puts on a sensible coat, wraps those coquettish quarrels lost in the gap of time, and absorbs the ability to speak together, becoming a kind person The communication is a bit bumpy.

But Cheng Zhi is different.

She is the only girl I am grateful for. During this period of girlhood, which was completely different from what I imagined, Cheng Zhi accompanied her through the transformation of her appearance, and then quietly exited.

It was Cheng Zhi who praised her from beginning to end.

"Oh, she has lost weight recently, did she play badminton... Sigh." Ms. Zou Lanjuan sighed.

Then Cheng Zhi saw her put a large piece of salt and pepper pork ribs into Tang Yuwei's bowl.

Cooperating with Tang Yuwei's bowl of rice that was about to overflow and the small bowl of soup on the side, Cheng Zhi finally understood why Tang Yuwei was so round.

Her mother... seems to be very good at raising daughters...

At this moment, Cheng Zhi suddenly understood Tang Yuwei's helpless look every time she mentioned her mother.

Such a move is really hard to refuse. The bonds of relatives are too strong, and Tang Yuwei is a soft person, and she is also very dependent on her parents. She always can't see that her mother is unhappy.

Tang Yuwei glanced at Cheng Zhi.

Cheng Zhi blinked and shook his head helplessly.

"Auntie, it's good to exercise more."

"Yes, yes... I'm afraid that her physique can't keep up. Alas, this girl was only five catties when she was born. She was thin and small. When she was a child, she suffered from frequent minor illnesses and bumps. Do you want to eat..."

Tang Yuwei had never heard from Comrade Zou Lanjuan that she was sick and troubled when she was a child. She had a mouthful of food stuck in her throat and almost stared her eyes out.

Do you feel that your overnutrition for so many years is a debt you owed when you were young?

Cheng Zhiqiang suppressed a laugh.

Zou Lanjuan seemed to have remembered something, and then ran to the kitchen.

"Ouch, feed me the wine..."

Cheng Zhi watched Tang Yuwei take a sip of soup before recovering. Tang Yuwei breathed a sigh of relief, staring at her hill-shaped rice and ribs on the rice, very sad.

What a sweet torture.

"If you can't eat, please give me some, anyway, I haven't filled the rice yet."

Cheng Zhi looked at Tang Yuwei staring at the silence after turning over, a few strands of long hair hanging on his shoulders, and his cheeks were bulging, and he wanted to laugh with a look of bitterness and hatred. Anyway, it was not the first time, so he said casually up.

Then I saw the chubby little girl quickly turn her head and give her a grateful glance, picked up Cheng Zhi's bowl and quickly turned half of it, and took a mouthful of rice by herself.

So when Zou Lanjuan came out with the warm wine, she saw Tang Yuwei picking up the rice, and just said, "You eat pretty fast, and drink some soup too."

Cheng Zhi suppressed a smile, his shoulders shaking.

Tang Yuwei tilted her head and sighed silently.

"Ah...it's killing me," Tang Yuwei felt like she was going to explode when she was about to go out, Cheng Zhi stood beside her, rubbed her stomach, and said distressedly: "Your mother is so enthusiastic, I have never been so supportive. "

She felt that she would not be able to jump high enough to play badminton today.

Cheng Zhi's oblique cylinder bag was carried by Tang Yuwei. Huang Daxian meowed several times but no one responded. He sharpened his paws angrily, poked outside, and then touched the drawstring of Tang Yuwei's sweater, touching and touching again and again. bite.

"Hey, what are you doing, don't bite my clothes." Although Huang Daxian is very cute, Tang Yuwei still feels that her clothes are more important, so she quickly rescued her drawstring from the cat's mouth, but Huang Daxian opened his mouth and wanted to bite.

Then he was pulled out with one hand.

Cheng Zhi and Huang Daxian looked at each other with Chenghuang eyes, and finally put it into his arms, took it out when the other was whimpering, and put it into the duffel bag.

Tang Yuwei: "..."

Huang Daxian has shrunk honestly into the bag.

In the weather community at the end of June, there are already many old people enjoying the shade under the sweet-scented osmanthus trees in the flower beds, shaking cattail fans, and singing Kunqu opera, babbling, seeing Tang Yuwei coming out, and saying hello.

Cheng Zhi looked at Tang Yuwei with a reluctant but still responding look and bent his lips.

The gate of the community is a bit old, and when I went out, I happened to see Xiang's mother who was busy in the store opposite, Tang Yuwei didn't come forward to say hello, Cheng Zhi followed Tang Yuwei quietly.

Suddenly asked: "Why did you write my name?"

"Ah?" Tang Yuwei didn't react.

"It's the draft book." Cheng Zhi remembered his name densely packed on the yellow background draft paper, and when he was about to ask, Tang Yuwei's mother knocked on the door.

Had to give up.

Now that there is no one around and the lights are bright, she looked at Tang Yuwei, and the questions that had been suppressed during the last long walk resurfaced, as if Tang Yuwei in front of her was shrouded in a blur of light and shadow. She really wanted to take a closer look, but Some dare not reach out.

"That...I practice calligraphy...practice calligraphy!" Tang Yuwei immediately made up a perfect reason for herself after she realized it, but she remembered that she was sitting in the room and thinking about it before she went out. They were all names, but it was the appointed time, and they left the house in a hurry.

She averted her eyes and felt the cat's head in the open duffel bag.

Huang Daxian meowed comfortably.

Tang Yuwei heard Cheng Zhi sigh.

She suppressed the thought in her heart that wanted to speak out, and walked forward as if nothing had happened.

"Are we still going to the old place?"

"Well, the final exam is next week. After the exam, we will play a few more rounds." Cheng Zhi changed the subject cooperatively. She stared at the patterns on the sidewalk, at the light cast by the street lamps, and at herself and Tang Yuwei being elongated. figure.

Then there are two more shadows.

She heard Tang Yuwei say to someone who came, "Hey, Xiang Man?"

Then there was a lower voice: "Ah...you play badminton."

Xiang Man held the hand of her younger brother Xiang Shu, and also carried a black plastic bag.

"Yup……"

"Yes, it's time for you to lose weight."

Xiang Man looked at Tang Yuwei and jokingly said that Xiang Shu saw the cat in Tang Yuwei's bag and stared curiously.

"You're so annoying." After so many months, Tang Yuwei deeply felt that Xiang Man's mouth was broken, but Xiang Man didn't make her feel uncomfortable even if she made such a joke. It was probably because she had known her for many years and knew her. It's love like this, he always speaks nicely to others, and he doesn't bother to care about it.

Xiang Man also saw Cheng Zhi, and Cheng Zhi smiled at Xiang Man.

Xiang Man and Cheng Zhi are about the same height, but they look completely different. Xiang Man's facial features are very clear and he looks grand, while Cheng Zhi looks much inferior at first glance, with plain features and plain clothes.

"Your classmate?"

Xiang Man asked a question.

"Ah."

"I'm leaving." Tang Yuwei dragged Cheng Zhi away without saying much.

Xiang Man, who was still standing there, took a look at the backs of the two of them, then dragged his younger brother to continue walking home.

She and Tang Yuwei haven't had much contact since they were in high school, but Zou Lanjuan occasionally mentioned a few words when she came to have breakfast, and she knew a little bit.

However, she and Tang Yuwei have been able to talk more in the past few months. The guy didn't talk much at first, and she only replied once he said one sentence.

She suddenly had the feeling that her daughter had grown up. Although her mother liked Tang Yuwei all the time and said she was sensible, she didn't react when she played with her peers and was laughed at by others. She just stood there blankly. , she can only quarrel with other people.

As a result, her personality became more and more extroverted, and Tang Yuwei became more and more introverted.

I thought this guy would be like this in the future, but I didn't expect that there would be a day of change.

They can be regarded as neighbors, and they grew up together, so they always pay attention to a little bit.

When he was about to get home, Xiang Shu broke away from his sister's hand and ran to Xiang's mother. Xiang Man walked slowly to the store, took out the sanitary balls from the black plastic bag, rolled up his sleeves and faced her. The mother who was washing the dishes said, "I'll come and I'll make way for you."
