dumb love
Work related
Dueling, I hurriedly said: "Don't make trouble, this is on the highway."
After driving all night, before dawn the next day, I got off the expressway and arrived at City H, which was still a few hours away from the tourist attractions.
I'm used to staying up late and relying on cigarettes to support me and I don't feel too tired, but my body is dirty. I want to find a place to take a bath and sleep to clean myself up.
It's really inconvenient to go anywhere as winter is approaching the end of the year. Thinking about it this way, I think it's better to stay at home honestly. Jiang He tried hard to think about it for a long time, and said that he might as well go to Hongcun in City H.
I don't have much interest in these thoughts, anyway, I just go out for a walk, it doesn't matter where I go.
Follow the map and drive along the winding mountain road, winding and winding, are there a few mountain springs flowing on the rock walls on the high peaks and making sounds.
I didn't sleep all night, and Jiang He also kept talking with me, talking about his junior high school, the happy passing time, and asking about my private affairs, anyway, I will definitely not tell him, I am so annoying Yes, throw him a dog head pillow in the back seat, let him hug and play, and deeply appreciate how relaxing the tranquility of the morning light is.
It is said to be traveling, but it is just to sleep in another place, play computer, and smoke.
I bought a ticket to Hongcun, and lived in a small farmyard called the farmhouse. On the second floor, there was a big bed. It was clean, and the wooden windows had a charm.
I sat on the bed and read books, Jiang He packed up my things and ran to my room, eager to drag me into the scenic spot to have a look.
I'm really not interested, and I'm trying to find a reasonable excuse to decline.
Jiang He said again: "Why don't you go to Huangshan Mountain tomorrow to see the winter snow. There are few people in winter. This season is the most suitable to go to the top of the mountain to see the sea of clouds. If you are lucky, you may even see the Buddha's light."
I calculated the itinerary, I will visit Hongcun today, go to Huangshan Scenic Area after resting, stay at the top of the mountain for one night, and then return the next day, it will take one day to go out of province A, and another two days to return to city B.
Time is tight, but it is not bad to go to see a snow scene. I have heard that the strange rocks in Huangshan, the strange pines, the snow and the sea of clouds in winter are a fairyland on earth.
After thinking about it, I didn't refuse anymore, put down my notebook and said, "Go back and wait for me, and call you when I go out." Jiang He nodded and went out.
I tidied myself up and put on the fleece coat I just took off. I am especially afraid of the cold, but I don’t like to wear too many clothes, and I don’t have the habit of wrapping scarves. In winter, except in places with heating, Otherwise, you will have cold hands and feet.
A street more than 200 meters long, with various characteristics, nothing to worry about, crossing a bridge, is the classic of Hongcun, a well-preserved deep house compound, high walls, dilapidated doors, carved windows, dry branches, green Black stones, clear mountain springs, and rolling hills in the distance covered with snow.
The ancient ginkgo tree stands at the exit of the village and is well protected. Perhaps because of the New Year, every household hung up red lanterns. Looking at it from a distance, it is extraordinarily festive.
Jiang He was very interested, and said that this is the dried plum cake here, this is the smoked chicken leg, this is the duck leg, and that is the edamame curd, seeing that I have not been interested.
After walking a few more steps, he asked, "Do you want to brew some authentic wine here?"
I raised my eyebrows, nodded slowly, and he took me to change the road again, winding around in the alley. A few minutes later, an old shop appeared in front of me. There are a few big characters written crookedly on the card.
I went in and took a look, and there were a complete range of varieties, such as the best daughter red, dry red grapes, various flower flavors and fruit flavors, everything that one expects to find. A girl in her teens was watching the store, smiling brightly, let us try one by one.
If I tasted them one by one, I would be drinking and driving today. I can’t taste them. Jiang He is quite familiar with this store, so he asked him to recommend something suitable for my dad and grandpa to drink, and take some back to them.
After dividing it into several bamboo tubes, the little girl gave me an extra bamboo tube before leaving.
Jiang He helped me with a few yin and yang quirks and said: "The teacher is really charming, the little girl rebelled against her color."
I played with the lighter that Chenxi gave me. The ancient silver body embossed a flying eagle, and there were two slightly hidden concave spots on the top and bottom of the cover. It's heavy, but it feels good in the hand. I don't know how long I saved for living expenses to buy it.
"Are you jealous or something, the one I gave you?"
"It's okay if I'm jealous. The girl keeps staring at you endlessly. If I had known, I wouldn't have come to this house." Jiang He muttered a few words, even if I heard it, I wouldn't care too much.
Hongcun is not very big, so we stopped and went, and Jiang He took me to a tour guide who took me to find some well-preserved deep houses in the maze-like alleys to visit.
It took only an hour to go around in a circle, and after leaving Hongcun, I found a restaurant in Qiaotou and ordered some signature dishes here.
When I first came to Mingchuan, I heard that I was not used to the food here. Su Changhua’s cooking in a small stove is also the authentic B city food, and he can barely cope with it in the kitchen when he has nothing to do. Chenxi’s meals are common household meals. The food here is not that delicious.
I was really hungry, and the two of us finished eating a few dishes.
After reading it and understanding the cultural heritage, we went back to the house, rested all night, and got up before dawn the next day to go to Huangshan Scenic Area.
And in the past two days, I haven't contacted Chen Xi, and Chen Xi hasn't looked for me either, so maybe it's really awkward.
☆, return to city B
Jiang He was lucky, he changed several positions back and forth, and dozed off little by little. Compared with me, he was very happy.
Hongcun is only tens of kilometers away from Huangshan Mountain, and it takes more than an hour to drive there. Private cars are not allowed to enter and leave the scenic spot at will. I parked the car at the entrance of the scenic spot where vehicles are specially stored, and woke up Jiang He.
He was in a daze for a while before he woke up, still rubbing his eyes hysterically: "It's here?"
"Is it comfortable to sleep?" I got out of the car to put out the cigarette, and locked the car after he got down.
After buying tickets and a bus ticket to the top of the mountain, Jiang He dragged a big suitcase and followed me. There were really not many people, and the desolate dead branches and leaves at the foot of the mountain covered the entire road.
After sitting for a while on the bus dedicated to running scenic spots, I changed to the cable car and went straight up the mountain. The colder the more I went up, the colder my hands and feet were when I got off the cable car. Jiang He found a house that looked clean and comfortable. In a deserted hotel, I opened my mouth and asked for a room, I raised my eyebrows and he changed his words: "Two rooms."
If people like us who don’t prepare for anything rush to come up during the peak season, I’m afraid we will sleep on the top of the mountain.
I rushed this way, tired and paralyzed on the bed, unwilling to move, and once again felt that Jiang He was really full of energy, more energetic than Su Changhua, at least Su Changhua was still full of energy every now and then.
Su Changhua said that I lack the eyes to discover the beauty of nature, so what is the use of eyes, I agree with him, but I don't quite agree with him, after all, my eyes still need to see other things.
The more tired my body is, the clearer my mind becomes. I looked at the screen of my mobile phone, and I just sent a short message on my mobile phone, but I haven't responded for a long time, but some former classmates and friends often contact me to ask me when I will go back to City B so that we can get together.
Annoyed, I threw my phone back on the bed, rolled around on the bed a few times, and fell asleep again before I knew it.
I was awakened by Jiang He’s knock on the door. He must have counted the time to come. I looked out the window, but I didn’t know what time it was. I couldn’t see anything else clearly except for a few lights at the door. .
I went to open the door, walked into the bathroom to wash my face, and looked at myself in the mirror. I have nothing in common with my grandma, not even my dad, only a pair of emerald eyes, and hers The eyes are exactly the same, even my dad didn't inherit the eyes.
Actually, I don't like it at all. I wear dark brown colored contact lenses all the time, but I just took them off recently. I don't really care about bloodlines.
In the bottom of my heart, I still have the machismo that is common to Chinese men. I like to control everything in my own hands and not be restrained by anyone.
Looking at strange mountains and strange rocks at night has a special flavor, especially when the night is shrouded, the mountains look more hazy, the moonlight shines on the earth, and the rime and snow are vaguely looming.
Every time when I look at the beautiful scenery alone, I always think, if Su Changhua is here, I will definitely live up to the kindness of this good time.
Perhaps because of bad luck, even if I got up very early, I didn't see the Buddha's light on the top of the mountain, but a large sea of clouds spread under my feet, with waves floating, so magnificent, it was worth the trip, I didn't Feeling so regretful, Jiang He sighed and felt really bad luck.
I went down from the mountain to soak in the hot springs, so I didn't stay too long. I returned to City F by the same route, and there was not much time left. It would take one to two days from there to City B, so I didn't send Jiang He back to Mingchuan. , directly on the expressway back to city B from city F.
I didn't expect that my dad was still waiting for me to go to the old man's place in city B, and when he saw me go back, he taunted and said, "I thought you were so happy that you didn't plan to come back, and I was thinking about whether to use a missing person notice. "
I'm used to dealing with him, and I don't care what his reaction will be if he listens too much, I don't even need to think: "You still use the missing person notice to find me, just use a summoning spell, I am sure I am more in line with your wishes than a summoned beast." He hasn't had a good rest in the past few days, and he seems to have noticed something, he didn't bother to push me, and pouted: "Go wash and change clothes, and wait at the old man's place."
Su Changhua said that I am a dandy, and that what a bad tutor can teach you to be so shameless, I don't take it seriously, that's because he has never seen my dad's mouth.
My dad is better at pretending than me. At least people who don’t know him at first glance think that this person is elegant and graceful when interacting with others, and he has a certain amount of advances and retreats.
In fact, they all lost their eyes. My dad just looks at people. Speaking of this, there is actually another small thing.
When I was in chaos a few years ago, Su Changhua came to my house because he couldn't bear it. He had good intentions. If I didn't go too far, he would turn a blind eye and follow me to clean up the mess.
But that time I touched his bottom line, in my opinion now, it's not a big deal, it's just sleeping with multiple people at the same time, and later because of Su Changhua's disruption, it didn't go on.
I can’t remember the boy’s appearance so far. Maybe it’s just a playful kid who wants to try something new from the neighbor’s house. Or maybe he just couldn’t stand the temptation and was deceived. There’s no reason to put the prey back. , but, I still haven't made it to the end.
Su Changhua said: "Shen Mingyi, what are you doing now? Are you punishing someone? What's the point besides ruining yourself?" I think my silence just pushed his irrationality to another peak. Yes, in my opinion at the time , Su Changhua is like a psychopath.
At that time, I didn't think there was anything wrong with what I did, so I didn't reflect on it, and I never thought about it seriously, so I always knew that Su Changhua and I would always go our separate ways, because we were never in the same world. Humans, no matter how similar we are or how similar our interests are, this fact cannot be changed.
Of course I knew that Su Changhua went to find my dad, but the conversation was not very pleasant. He dragged me halfway to see how I had been obediently cooperating, and when his anger subsided, he gave up. I really didn't care.
My dad was also surprised when he saw this scene. He has never been able to maintain his demeanor in front of me: "Shen Mingyi, what do you look like now?" When my dad said this, Su Changhua was quite satisfied. The original purpose was to use my dad to suppress me and make me restrain myself a little.
As soon as the topic changed, he slowly took out a piece of handkerchief to wipe off the dry red wine on the corners of his lips, then turned his gaze to us again, and said with a half-smile: "Bringing people back so blatantly, really When no one cares about you at home?" I shrugged and said nothing, Su Changhua's expression would be very exciting.
My dad's room is on the second floor very close to the stairs, and mine is on the third floor. Usually, for the convenience of returning to the room, most of them are from the stairs near his room. Later, he was disturbed, so he also put a thick layer on the stairs. Thick woolen blanket.
The room was just as it was when I left, it hadn’t been touched at all, but it was clean and spotless. I rolled on the bed, and the neat quilt smelled like sunshine, even though I knew he wouldn’t hold the cup to dry it for me. , With the intention of this enjoinment, it is enough for me.
On the plane, I relied on my dad to catch my sleep. This man just let me know that no matter what I do, no matter where I am or where he is, I can be safe and sound. calm down.
☆, New Year's Eve
There are not many people in the old man's house. A few old servants who clean the gate are all celebrating the festival in the manor. Grandma makes dumplings in the kitchen herself. There is an old pug who can't look ugly except for shedding hair and being cute and coquettish. circle around me.
If it weren't for the short tail, I think it must have snapped off from too much twist.
The old man was also at home, wearing a dark red Tang suit and holding a decorative pear wood walking stick with a dragon head in his hand, he still looked so energetic.
Seeing my dad being indifferent, he smiled kindly when he saw me, waved to me, and took me to the study.
My dad was a happy old man who ignored him and made me suffer. After asking about the current situation, he talked about his plans for the future, and then urged my dad to urge me.
I stood neatly and listened to his reprimand for several hours. If my grandma hadn't come in to see me and asked me to go out to eat New Year's Eve dinner, I would have had several hours of family training.
My dad made the right decision to bring me away from the old man to grow up in China.
I have always disliked talking too much in front of the old man, let’s not say that I will be reprimanded, criticized and educated by him if I say something wrong.
For example, he would ask me what dishes I usually like to eat, and he can judge my taste through my taste, and the friends I make, including their family background.
The old man likes to take me to the banquet. When I was young, I was not sensible enough to try something new, but I also loved to go with him to eat, drink, play and play, and he didn't mind.
Later, he asked me to learn some ways of doing business and family management. Even the majors I chose were financial economics and marketing, which he gave me a half-step and a big step.
After all, I compromised, and I didn't even take my dad's ridicule to heart.
The dumplings that are indispensable in the New Year’s Eve dinner are my favorite pork and coriander. They can be fried, boiled or steamed, and there is also a special seasoning for soup dumplings made for me. I don’t like to talk at all when eating.
This is a tacit understanding in the whole family. Except for the voice of grandma greeting us in still not very proficient Chinese, there is almost no sound. The knife and fork rubbed against the plate, and there is no unpleasant sound.
I don't think my eating appearance should be too ugly. This time, the old man finally stopped regulating me with his critical eyes.
The Spring Festival here is really not as lively as it is in China. I ran to the top attic to breathe. Perhaps it is because the manor is far away from the lively area. Except for some gorgeous fireworks flashing in the distant sky from time to time, the night is too quiet.
I calculated the time difference between the time difference and the domestic time, seven hours, it is almost four o'clock in the morning, the New Year has already passed!
By coincidence, I dialed that number again, almost without dialing, because I knew that even then I would not hear any voice.
There was the sound of dialing in the microphone, ringing back and forth, and I wanted to hang up countless times in tens of seconds. The thought flashed by, I took out a cigarette, and was about to light it, when the phone vibrated slightly, which was the signal to answer.
The smoke froze between his fingers, as if his lingering breath could be heard across the ocean.
"Chenxi, Happy New Year." I finished speaking hastily, almost as if I was fleeing, and hung up the phone. After a long time, I couldn't calm down. After hanging up the phone, I felt that I was too reckless. After thinking about it, I felt that I could still be unscrupulous for a few more years at my age.
Chen Xi's news came back quite quickly. I hadn't finished my cigarette yet, and my phone was vibrating slightly in my trouser pocket.
It was a bit chilly in the attic, so I stubbed out the cigarette butt and stood there for a while before returning to the house. My dad was sitting on the sofa seat opposite my bed tasting wine, and raised his eyebrows when he saw me coming in with a mobile phone.
Smiling slowly, with amazing charm: "Shen Mingyi, you have changed." In some respects, my dad is still a very sensitive person.
"Really." I reached out and took off my thick gray woolen coat and hung it up, then sat on the bed opposite him, lit a cigarette, and the smoke was lingering.
"You are really unlikable as always. I really don't know how someone can like you so hard." His casual sarcasm made my complexion change immediately.
He didn't care, ignored my surprise, drank it all in one gulp, then put down the glass, and walked up to me step by step. I had a hunch that he should have drunk too much again, but the clear eyes made me dispel this. idea.
The jaw was pinched, and the sitting posture made me involuntarily present an illusion of being looked down.
"You and your mother look exactly the same." He could still remember what my mother looked like.
I shook off his hand and flinched unconsciously on the bed, provoking his mockery with a chuckle.
"Don't think that your little tricks and careful thinking can escape anyone's eyes. The old man is not so easy to fool. Don't you just want freedom, why don't you fight for it yourself." Inexplicably, I remembered Shen Nuo's words, and He said exactly the same words.
"What you and Shen Nuo said are exactly the same." I adjusted my mood very quickly, and counterattacked him unhurriedly.
I can clearly see all kinds of complex emotions flashing in his eyes for a moment, confusion, puzzlement, self-deprecating and deep hatred, all of which are fleeting, and those without any concealment have not escaped me s eyes.
I said, "You hate him so much?" Before Shen Nuo appeared, there should have been an irreparable rift between them, and Shen Nuo was just a catalyst.
"I met him by accident in Mingchuan." I thought about it, and organized my words as simple as possible before he interrupted impatiently. Even though I don't like him so much, he is always my blood relative .
"He asked me to say hello to you on his behalf." After I finished speaking, I looked at him, unfortunately, the heartbroken expression was well concealed by him, and he didn't reveal it at all.
"Just take care of yourself." He interrupted me impatiently to end this topic.
He hesitated for a while before leaving, and finally ordered again: "Be careful with your uncles."
If I can wait for more than ten years with peace of mind, the old man will definitely choose me as his successor. It is precisely because of this that he does not allow me to do whatever I want.
I think my dad is right, I can't escape his eyes no matter what I do, the real freedom I can want is to do my best to get rid of his shackles.
I have always wanted unrestrained freedom, but my identity does not allow me to have the slightest slack. I didn't feel it before, but now that I think about it, this is my advantage and my biggest disadvantage.
I thought about it for a while, but I still haven't made a decision. During the half-year internship in Mingchuan, I tried many different habits from before. It was a completely different environment from the one I lived in since I was a child. I couldn't even deny it. The same temptation kept me there.
☆, new weather
After my dad left, I didn't stay with the old man for long. When I went back, I only brought a few bottles of red wine collected by the old man, and I received a big red envelope from the old man. I didn't bring much else. I talked deeply for most of the night and listened to a lot of his good words.
After I came back from there, I was full of thoughts. When I was young, except that my dad didn't like me very much, I never felt that I was no different from others. I went to the same school and lived in the same school, but my dad didn't allow me to do it. Things that embarrass him, such as going to fight with Su Changhua in elementary school, if he comes back with injuries, he will be beaten if he loses or wins, the reason is, don't fight like a punk.
Later, we learned to fight without hurting our faces. For this reason, I specially studied taekwondo, judo and other messy fighting styles for a few years, and finally I no longer looked like an ordinary hooligan.
Later, when I found that my life had been under the arrangement and monitoring of others, I was no longer as unscrupulous as before. My home is the furthest away from University B. Before the college entrance examination, I worked hard to pass the B. big.
I negotiated a deal with my dad on the condition that I was an adult. I thought he really didn't intend to control me anymore. Later I found out that he really wanted to set me free all along.
I remember the most impressive words he once said to me. On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, he talked with me seriously all night in a completely different tone than usual.
"The moment you become an adult, I should look at you with the eyes of an adult, so, I hope that starting today, you will be responsible for everything you say and do, as a son, as a man, as an heir , if you want something, go for it yourself, if you don’t do your best, then don’t try, remember, I don’t care how others educate my children, what you want, just try your best to get it.”
If I didn't understand his words at that time, now I really understand, and at this moment, I suddenly realized the responsibility on my shoulders, what I want most is freedom, before, now, and later, I'm afraid I don't want to be overwhelmed by the old man all the time.
Thinking about it this way, I quickly weighed the pros and cons in my mind, and when I saw Su Changhua again, he looked around me up and down and was amazed.
"Mingyi, why do I feel that you are exuding the radiance of the Virgin Mary everywhere now?"
"I said, have you been secretly promising me, you don't do so many things, you have time to observe me?" I raised my eyebrows and looked at the notes I took down.
Su Changhua leaned closer to me and said, "I'm really worried about you now. Last time you took the exam for B University, you worked so hard, and it turned out to be your dad's bargaining chip. What do you think you're going to do this time? Tell me, It also prepares me mentally."
I closed the book and read a little bit of "Living Law". I like a passage in it very much. In a simple summary, it is: fate does not run on a pre-laid track. According to our wishes, it can be changed for the better, or can go bad.
"I want to go abroad." My mood should be extremely calm at this time, even with my former best friend, without any discussion, I suddenly decided on the way out.
"When?" Su Changhua wasn't too surprised, he took a cigarette out of my pocket and lit it.
"I'm already preparing the materials and preparations for applying for Harvard. If there are no accidents, I will stay in Mingchuan for another semester and there will be no problems. Also, I hope you can keep it secret for me." What I used to be very resistant to, now I say it , can be so calm and composed.
Su Changhua smiled and said nothing, and I will not say more, this is the most helpless fate.
No. 12 of the seventh middle school started in January, and we had nothing to do with it. The most frustrating part of the school was that no teacher was allowed to be absent during the meeting, no matter what happened or not.
We arrived at the place one day in advance, and the furniture was covered with white cloth and there was no dust that was too eye-catching.
Mingchuan was colder than before, dry and cold, and the howling north wind penetrated directly into the person's open clothes, and the shaved cheeks were painful.
Su Changhua was wrapped up like a furry ball and despised me, although I was afraid of the cold and more impatient to dress like a bear.
There are quite a lot of activities this semester, but I also have a lot of personal affairs. I originally wanted to drop a class, but later I felt that it was not good to drop any of them. At worst, I would just stay in the office from now on.
The most common thing about the beginning of school is that there are a lot of wedding banquets, auspicious days, nothing more than May 11, New Year's Day and around the Spring Festival. There are many people to make it lively. Most of the seventh middle schools are newly graduated teachers. There are also many people talking about marriage. There is a good news, one office, one floor, one grade, everyone follows the ceremony, and no one can get away. Maybe it is different in different places, and there are not many people who follow. There are still many people who are 100 or [-]. Few people complained. After all, the salary was only a few thousand dollars, and after one month, just the gifts would cost part of it.
I don't want to live on a little salary every month, and I will have a lot of nosy things like firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea in the future. I don't want to devote all my mind to livelihood in the future. Life is too long and too short, even if it is the most basic life. , I don't want to waste any more, instead of resisting until I have to, it's better to take it step by step now.
When I get busy, I always feel that time flies very fast. Winter is coming to an end before I know it. The willows in the Golden Delta are sprouting green buds. The branches and leaves of camphor are much more lush than last year, and the room is starting to feel stuffy. up.
In fact, I am not worried about the English grading test at all. I just read some books on professional knowledge as usual, occasionally analyze marketing, and secretly invest some money in the stock market.
At first glance, it lasted from morning to afternoon. As soon as I stood up from the seat, I felt dizzy for a while, and it took a long time for the dizziness to subside.
Su Changhua said that I worked too hard, but I always felt like I didn't have enough time. I used to be too indulgent and left too much behind.
As soon as my heart calmed down, I suddenly felt that the surrounding area became much quieter. When I calmed down and thought about it, I suddenly realized that Chen Xi hadn't disturbed me for a long time, and even Jiang He rarely appeared.
I felt a little strange, I asked about the situation in Su Changhua's class, but I ignored the fact that Shen Nuo was coming to teach as an assistant, Su Changfeng wanted him to lead his class.
Although Shen Nuo studied at MIT, he came back from abroad after all, and there was always some conflict with other substitute teachers. I had a talk with Su Changfeng a few days ago, so I resigned from Class [-], and Su Changfeng went to Finding the principal to make a formality and letting Shen Nuo take over, everyone is really happy, and somehow offended the little ancestor.
I've always felt that Chen Xi's temper tantrum is more overwhelming than not having a temper. Anyone can yell at me and make a fuss, but he can't and won't.
At first, he felt that the child's temper tantrum would get better in a few days, but this time it was more serious than the last time he went to Huangshan alone with Jiang He, maybe he should have noticed it.
Thinking of this, I feel a headache. I just don't want him to know about it, but I ignore it. He is the most careful person. How can I hide it from him? I'm sick, it seems necessary to have a good talk with him.
☆, Chenxi Chenxi
This semester, No. [-] Middle School also canceled weekends and changed it to a full week, with school ending on Saturday morning. This policy hurt the hearts of many students, but it didn’t have much impact on me, but the rules for late self-study were also changed.
From Sunday to Friday, three periods of five and 10 minutes of self-study are changed to two periods of eight and 10 minutes of self-study, and there is no class scheduling. One teacher for one night is the time that has given me the most headache so far. Fortunately, one was rejected. class.
Eight to 10 minutes per class, only university professors and professional tutors can speak perfectly from the beginning to the end without stopping.
I usually hand out one paper for one class, and then give another paper for the second class. I repeat this over and over again, and the class has progressed quite a bit.
Class [-] and Class [-] are not far apart. I often see Shen Nuo who goes to the office from the door. Chen Xi hides from me on purpose. The English word notebook left in a hurry.
Chen Xi should be under some pressure in studying. His rankings in several exams have fluctuated back and forth many times. Only he has been in the No.1 seat. His scores are still very good, and there is no trace of being too biased. Many people took the exam with the goal of pulling him down from the throne.
I should be very relieved to see him studying so hard. Even so, I still don't think he has much chance of being admitted to B University.
It is as easy for students from city B to enter university B as students from province A to enter university A. However, if you cross-province, the score is much higher. Not to mention, the number of places in each province is still limited. After all, University B is built in B. The universities in the city are most convenient for students in city B.
It's not that I don't have confidence in him, I just don't have much hope for the No. [-] Middle School that is still advancing. According to my understanding, there are only a few people who can be admitted to B University every year in Mingchuan No. [-] Middle School and No. [-] Middle School. No matter how fast the development is, it is only a new school that has just been established for four years.
Lao Wang has said more than once that the most critical class of No. [-] Middle School is the first year of senior high school. Not only him, but all the teachers have great hopes for the students of this class. They all hope that this class can pass the exam. Get a good ranking and then carry forward the Seventh Middle School.
After the first monthly exam, Chenxi lived up to expectations. Even her No.1 score kept improving, especially in English and mathematics. Sometimes she could beat the top score in science classes by more than ten points.
I'm very busy, and I don't pass by the third class, and I don't usually go to the cafeteria, water room, supermarket, etc. Su Changhua chatters about any news, such as who in the third class committed something, what happened to the old class How to deal with how to clean up.
I thought he was noisy and asked him to shut up, but he still yelled in disbelief: "Isn't it just that Chen Xi was not mentioned? Don't be so impatient and obvious. Speaking of Chen Xi, there is a piece of bad news."
I was calmer than him, and before I asked him, I said it myself: "Chenxi fought with Jiang Bin today, and he is being scolded in the office, have you seen?" My first reaction was Su Changhua I was joking, and then I suddenly guessed what the reason was.
I casually asked, "Is Class Three dissatisfied with me for pushing their class instead of Class Five?"
Su Changhua said: "It's inevitable that they will have some opinions. After all, you have been in charge of the third class for a longer time."
"Anyway, we have to leave. What's the difference between one more semester and one less semester? Wouldn't it be better to let them get used to Shen Nuo faster? Go and call your brother and ask him to bring Chen Xi with him." Su Changhua He didn't call right away, but looked at me with some seriousness. Every now and then, I knew what he wanted to say.
"Mingyi, tell me, did you change because of the dawn?" I paused, and quickly shook my head as an answer.
"We've been together for more than ten years, you can't fool me." Su Changhua affirmed triumphantly.
I was silent.
Su Changhua said: "No matter where you will be in the future, no matter who you will be with in the future, whether it is Chen Xi Jiang He or someone else I don't know, Ming Yi, I hope you will be happy, do you understand?"
I actually know everything, it's just that I don't come here on my own will, and Su Changhua is even less likely to be willful.
I said: "I know." I will not let anyone interfere in my life, I will not abandon my love, and I will not express anything when I know it should not be.
"Don't worry, I will definitely train him." After saying that, Su Changhua got up and went to call his brother. I was in a state of confusion for a moment.
The teaching building is not close to the teacher's apartment building, Su Changhua went next door to cook, and I smoked here and thought about all the things that happened since I came to Mingchuan.
It is undeniable that I made up my mind to fight for rights and freedom only after I came to Mingchuan. I don’t know how much reason Chenxi has. This is not what I should think about now, even if I know many things but I can’t lie to myself , and even then, I wouldn't.
The door was gently closed by Chen Xi who came in, and she stood obediently in front of me, her face was not as white as when we were fighting back then, and I was relieved, I think it was because my classmates pulled me away or , hit somewhere else.
After I motioned him to sit casually, Shen
After driving all night, before dawn the next day, I got off the expressway and arrived at City H, which was still a few hours away from the tourist attractions.
I'm used to staying up late and relying on cigarettes to support me and I don't feel too tired, but my body is dirty. I want to find a place to take a bath and sleep to clean myself up.
It's really inconvenient to go anywhere as winter is approaching the end of the year. Thinking about it this way, I think it's better to stay at home honestly. Jiang He tried hard to think about it for a long time, and said that he might as well go to Hongcun in City H.
I don't have much interest in these thoughts, anyway, I just go out for a walk, it doesn't matter where I go.
Follow the map and drive along the winding mountain road, winding and winding, are there a few mountain springs flowing on the rock walls on the high peaks and making sounds.
I didn't sleep all night, and Jiang He also kept talking with me, talking about his junior high school, the happy passing time, and asking about my private affairs, anyway, I will definitely not tell him, I am so annoying Yes, throw him a dog head pillow in the back seat, let him hug and play, and deeply appreciate how relaxing the tranquility of the morning light is.
It is said to be traveling, but it is just to sleep in another place, play computer, and smoke.
I bought a ticket to Hongcun, and lived in a small farmyard called the farmhouse. On the second floor, there was a big bed. It was clean, and the wooden windows had a charm.
I sat on the bed and read books, Jiang He packed up my things and ran to my room, eager to drag me into the scenic spot to have a look.
I'm really not interested, and I'm trying to find a reasonable excuse to decline.
Jiang He said again: "Why don't you go to Huangshan Mountain tomorrow to see the winter snow. There are few people in winter. This season is the most suitable to go to the top of the mountain to see the sea of clouds. If you are lucky, you may even see the Buddha's light."
I calculated the itinerary, I will visit Hongcun today, go to Huangshan Scenic Area after resting, stay at the top of the mountain for one night, and then return the next day, it will take one day to go out of province A, and another two days to return to city B.
Time is tight, but it is not bad to go to see a snow scene. I have heard that the strange rocks in Huangshan, the strange pines, the snow and the sea of clouds in winter are a fairyland on earth.
After thinking about it, I didn't refuse anymore, put down my notebook and said, "Go back and wait for me, and call you when I go out." Jiang He nodded and went out.
I tidied myself up and put on the fleece coat I just took off. I am especially afraid of the cold, but I don’t like to wear too many clothes, and I don’t have the habit of wrapping scarves. In winter, except in places with heating, Otherwise, you will have cold hands and feet.
A street more than 200 meters long, with various characteristics, nothing to worry about, crossing a bridge, is the classic of Hongcun, a well-preserved deep house compound, high walls, dilapidated doors, carved windows, dry branches, green Black stones, clear mountain springs, and rolling hills in the distance covered with snow.
The ancient ginkgo tree stands at the exit of the village and is well protected. Perhaps because of the New Year, every household hung up red lanterns. Looking at it from a distance, it is extraordinarily festive.
Jiang He was very interested, and said that this is the dried plum cake here, this is the smoked chicken leg, this is the duck leg, and that is the edamame curd, seeing that I have not been interested.
After walking a few more steps, he asked, "Do you want to brew some authentic wine here?"
I raised my eyebrows, nodded slowly, and he took me to change the road again, winding around in the alley. A few minutes later, an old shop appeared in front of me. There are a few big characters written crookedly on the card.
I went in and took a look, and there were a complete range of varieties, such as the best daughter red, dry red grapes, various flower flavors and fruit flavors, everything that one expects to find. A girl in her teens was watching the store, smiling brightly, let us try one by one.
If I tasted them one by one, I would be drinking and driving today. I can’t taste them. Jiang He is quite familiar with this store, so he asked him to recommend something suitable for my dad and grandpa to drink, and take some back to them.
After dividing it into several bamboo tubes, the little girl gave me an extra bamboo tube before leaving.
Jiang He helped me with a few yin and yang quirks and said: "The teacher is really charming, the little girl rebelled against her color."
I played with the lighter that Chenxi gave me. The ancient silver body embossed a flying eagle, and there were two slightly hidden concave spots on the top and bottom of the cover. It's heavy, but it feels good in the hand. I don't know how long I saved for living expenses to buy it.
"Are you jealous or something, the one I gave you?"
"It's okay if I'm jealous. The girl keeps staring at you endlessly. If I had known, I wouldn't have come to this house." Jiang He muttered a few words, even if I heard it, I wouldn't care too much.
Hongcun is not very big, so we stopped and went, and Jiang He took me to a tour guide who took me to find some well-preserved deep houses in the maze-like alleys to visit.
It took only an hour to go around in a circle, and after leaving Hongcun, I found a restaurant in Qiaotou and ordered some signature dishes here.
When I first came to Mingchuan, I heard that I was not used to the food here. Su Changhua’s cooking in a small stove is also the authentic B city food, and he can barely cope with it in the kitchen when he has nothing to do. Chenxi’s meals are common household meals. The food here is not that delicious.
I was really hungry, and the two of us finished eating a few dishes.
After reading it and understanding the cultural heritage, we went back to the house, rested all night, and got up before dawn the next day to go to Huangshan Scenic Area.
And in the past two days, I haven't contacted Chen Xi, and Chen Xi hasn't looked for me either, so maybe it's really awkward.
☆, return to city B
Jiang He was lucky, he changed several positions back and forth, and dozed off little by little. Compared with me, he was very happy.
Hongcun is only tens of kilometers away from Huangshan Mountain, and it takes more than an hour to drive there. Private cars are not allowed to enter and leave the scenic spot at will. I parked the car at the entrance of the scenic spot where vehicles are specially stored, and woke up Jiang He.
He was in a daze for a while before he woke up, still rubbing his eyes hysterically: "It's here?"
"Is it comfortable to sleep?" I got out of the car to put out the cigarette, and locked the car after he got down.
After buying tickets and a bus ticket to the top of the mountain, Jiang He dragged a big suitcase and followed me. There were really not many people, and the desolate dead branches and leaves at the foot of the mountain covered the entire road.
After sitting for a while on the bus dedicated to running scenic spots, I changed to the cable car and went straight up the mountain. The colder the more I went up, the colder my hands and feet were when I got off the cable car. Jiang He found a house that looked clean and comfortable. In a deserted hotel, I opened my mouth and asked for a room, I raised my eyebrows and he changed his words: "Two rooms."
If people like us who don’t prepare for anything rush to come up during the peak season, I’m afraid we will sleep on the top of the mountain.
I rushed this way, tired and paralyzed on the bed, unwilling to move, and once again felt that Jiang He was really full of energy, more energetic than Su Changhua, at least Su Changhua was still full of energy every now and then.
Su Changhua said that I lack the eyes to discover the beauty of nature, so what is the use of eyes, I agree with him, but I don't quite agree with him, after all, my eyes still need to see other things.
The more tired my body is, the clearer my mind becomes. I looked at the screen of my mobile phone, and I just sent a short message on my mobile phone, but I haven't responded for a long time, but some former classmates and friends often contact me to ask me when I will go back to City B so that we can get together.
Annoyed, I threw my phone back on the bed, rolled around on the bed a few times, and fell asleep again before I knew it.
I was awakened by Jiang He’s knock on the door. He must have counted the time to come. I looked out the window, but I didn’t know what time it was. I couldn’t see anything else clearly except for a few lights at the door. .
I went to open the door, walked into the bathroom to wash my face, and looked at myself in the mirror. I have nothing in common with my grandma, not even my dad, only a pair of emerald eyes, and hers The eyes are exactly the same, even my dad didn't inherit the eyes.
Actually, I don't like it at all. I wear dark brown colored contact lenses all the time, but I just took them off recently. I don't really care about bloodlines.
In the bottom of my heart, I still have the machismo that is common to Chinese men. I like to control everything in my own hands and not be restrained by anyone.
Looking at strange mountains and strange rocks at night has a special flavor, especially when the night is shrouded, the mountains look more hazy, the moonlight shines on the earth, and the rime and snow are vaguely looming.
Every time when I look at the beautiful scenery alone, I always think, if Su Changhua is here, I will definitely live up to the kindness of this good time.
Perhaps because of bad luck, even if I got up very early, I didn't see the Buddha's light on the top of the mountain, but a large sea of clouds spread under my feet, with waves floating, so magnificent, it was worth the trip, I didn't Feeling so regretful, Jiang He sighed and felt really bad luck.
I went down from the mountain to soak in the hot springs, so I didn't stay too long. I returned to City F by the same route, and there was not much time left. It would take one to two days from there to City B, so I didn't send Jiang He back to Mingchuan. , directly on the expressway back to city B from city F.
I didn't expect that my dad was still waiting for me to go to the old man's place in city B, and when he saw me go back, he taunted and said, "I thought you were so happy that you didn't plan to come back, and I was thinking about whether to use a missing person notice. "
I'm used to dealing with him, and I don't care what his reaction will be if he listens too much, I don't even need to think: "You still use the missing person notice to find me, just use a summoning spell, I am sure I am more in line with your wishes than a summoned beast." He hasn't had a good rest in the past few days, and he seems to have noticed something, he didn't bother to push me, and pouted: "Go wash and change clothes, and wait at the old man's place."
Su Changhua said that I am a dandy, and that what a bad tutor can teach you to be so shameless, I don't take it seriously, that's because he has never seen my dad's mouth.
My dad is better at pretending than me. At least people who don’t know him at first glance think that this person is elegant and graceful when interacting with others, and he has a certain amount of advances and retreats.
In fact, they all lost their eyes. My dad just looks at people. Speaking of this, there is actually another small thing.
When I was in chaos a few years ago, Su Changhua came to my house because he couldn't bear it. He had good intentions. If I didn't go too far, he would turn a blind eye and follow me to clean up the mess.
But that time I touched his bottom line, in my opinion now, it's not a big deal, it's just sleeping with multiple people at the same time, and later because of Su Changhua's disruption, it didn't go on.
I can’t remember the boy’s appearance so far. Maybe it’s just a playful kid who wants to try something new from the neighbor’s house. Or maybe he just couldn’t stand the temptation and was deceived. There’s no reason to put the prey back. , but, I still haven't made it to the end.
Su Changhua said: "Shen Mingyi, what are you doing now? Are you punishing someone? What's the point besides ruining yourself?" I think my silence just pushed his irrationality to another peak. Yes, in my opinion at the time , Su Changhua is like a psychopath.
At that time, I didn't think there was anything wrong with what I did, so I didn't reflect on it, and I never thought about it seriously, so I always knew that Su Changhua and I would always go our separate ways, because we were never in the same world. Humans, no matter how similar we are or how similar our interests are, this fact cannot be changed.
Of course I knew that Su Changhua went to find my dad, but the conversation was not very pleasant. He dragged me halfway to see how I had been obediently cooperating, and when his anger subsided, he gave up. I really didn't care.
My dad was also surprised when he saw this scene. He has never been able to maintain his demeanor in front of me: "Shen Mingyi, what do you look like now?" When my dad said this, Su Changhua was quite satisfied. The original purpose was to use my dad to suppress me and make me restrain myself a little.
As soon as the topic changed, he slowly took out a piece of handkerchief to wipe off the dry red wine on the corners of his lips, then turned his gaze to us again, and said with a half-smile: "Bringing people back so blatantly, really When no one cares about you at home?" I shrugged and said nothing, Su Changhua's expression would be very exciting.
My dad's room is on the second floor very close to the stairs, and mine is on the third floor. Usually, for the convenience of returning to the room, most of them are from the stairs near his room. Later, he was disturbed, so he also put a thick layer on the stairs. Thick woolen blanket.
The room was just as it was when I left, it hadn’t been touched at all, but it was clean and spotless. I rolled on the bed, and the neat quilt smelled like sunshine, even though I knew he wouldn’t hold the cup to dry it for me. , With the intention of this enjoinment, it is enough for me.
On the plane, I relied on my dad to catch my sleep. This man just let me know that no matter what I do, no matter where I am or where he is, I can be safe and sound. calm down.
☆, New Year's Eve
There are not many people in the old man's house. A few old servants who clean the gate are all celebrating the festival in the manor. Grandma makes dumplings in the kitchen herself. There is an old pug who can't look ugly except for shedding hair and being cute and coquettish. circle around me.
If it weren't for the short tail, I think it must have snapped off from too much twist.
The old man was also at home, wearing a dark red Tang suit and holding a decorative pear wood walking stick with a dragon head in his hand, he still looked so energetic.
Seeing my dad being indifferent, he smiled kindly when he saw me, waved to me, and took me to the study.
My dad was a happy old man who ignored him and made me suffer. After asking about the current situation, he talked about his plans for the future, and then urged my dad to urge me.
I stood neatly and listened to his reprimand for several hours. If my grandma hadn't come in to see me and asked me to go out to eat New Year's Eve dinner, I would have had several hours of family training.
My dad made the right decision to bring me away from the old man to grow up in China.
I have always disliked talking too much in front of the old man, let’s not say that I will be reprimanded, criticized and educated by him if I say something wrong.
For example, he would ask me what dishes I usually like to eat, and he can judge my taste through my taste, and the friends I make, including their family background.
The old man likes to take me to the banquet. When I was young, I was not sensible enough to try something new, but I also loved to go with him to eat, drink, play and play, and he didn't mind.
Later, he asked me to learn some ways of doing business and family management. Even the majors I chose were financial economics and marketing, which he gave me a half-step and a big step.
After all, I compromised, and I didn't even take my dad's ridicule to heart.
The dumplings that are indispensable in the New Year’s Eve dinner are my favorite pork and coriander. They can be fried, boiled or steamed, and there is also a special seasoning for soup dumplings made for me. I don’t like to talk at all when eating.
This is a tacit understanding in the whole family. Except for the voice of grandma greeting us in still not very proficient Chinese, there is almost no sound. The knife and fork rubbed against the plate, and there is no unpleasant sound.
I don't think my eating appearance should be too ugly. This time, the old man finally stopped regulating me with his critical eyes.
The Spring Festival here is really not as lively as it is in China. I ran to the top attic to breathe. Perhaps it is because the manor is far away from the lively area. Except for some gorgeous fireworks flashing in the distant sky from time to time, the night is too quiet.
I calculated the time difference between the time difference and the domestic time, seven hours, it is almost four o'clock in the morning, the New Year has already passed!
By coincidence, I dialed that number again, almost without dialing, because I knew that even then I would not hear any voice.
There was the sound of dialing in the microphone, ringing back and forth, and I wanted to hang up countless times in tens of seconds. The thought flashed by, I took out a cigarette, and was about to light it, when the phone vibrated slightly, which was the signal to answer.
The smoke froze between his fingers, as if his lingering breath could be heard across the ocean.
"Chenxi, Happy New Year." I finished speaking hastily, almost as if I was fleeing, and hung up the phone. After a long time, I couldn't calm down. After hanging up the phone, I felt that I was too reckless. After thinking about it, I felt that I could still be unscrupulous for a few more years at my age.
Chen Xi's news came back quite quickly. I hadn't finished my cigarette yet, and my phone was vibrating slightly in my trouser pocket.
It was a bit chilly in the attic, so I stubbed out the cigarette butt and stood there for a while before returning to the house. My dad was sitting on the sofa seat opposite my bed tasting wine, and raised his eyebrows when he saw me coming in with a mobile phone.
Smiling slowly, with amazing charm: "Shen Mingyi, you have changed." In some respects, my dad is still a very sensitive person.
"Really." I reached out and took off my thick gray woolen coat and hung it up, then sat on the bed opposite him, lit a cigarette, and the smoke was lingering.
"You are really unlikable as always. I really don't know how someone can like you so hard." His casual sarcasm made my complexion change immediately.
He didn't care, ignored my surprise, drank it all in one gulp, then put down the glass, and walked up to me step by step. I had a hunch that he should have drunk too much again, but the clear eyes made me dispel this. idea.
The jaw was pinched, and the sitting posture made me involuntarily present an illusion of being looked down.
"You and your mother look exactly the same." He could still remember what my mother looked like.
I shook off his hand and flinched unconsciously on the bed, provoking his mockery with a chuckle.
"Don't think that your little tricks and careful thinking can escape anyone's eyes. The old man is not so easy to fool. Don't you just want freedom, why don't you fight for it yourself." Inexplicably, I remembered Shen Nuo's words, and He said exactly the same words.
"What you and Shen Nuo said are exactly the same." I adjusted my mood very quickly, and counterattacked him unhurriedly.
I can clearly see all kinds of complex emotions flashing in his eyes for a moment, confusion, puzzlement, self-deprecating and deep hatred, all of which are fleeting, and those without any concealment have not escaped me s eyes.
I said, "You hate him so much?" Before Shen Nuo appeared, there should have been an irreparable rift between them, and Shen Nuo was just a catalyst.
"I met him by accident in Mingchuan." I thought about it, and organized my words as simple as possible before he interrupted impatiently. Even though I don't like him so much, he is always my blood relative .
"He asked me to say hello to you on his behalf." After I finished speaking, I looked at him, unfortunately, the heartbroken expression was well concealed by him, and he didn't reveal it at all.
"Just take care of yourself." He interrupted me impatiently to end this topic.
He hesitated for a while before leaving, and finally ordered again: "Be careful with your uncles."
If I can wait for more than ten years with peace of mind, the old man will definitely choose me as his successor. It is precisely because of this that he does not allow me to do whatever I want.
I think my dad is right, I can't escape his eyes no matter what I do, the real freedom I can want is to do my best to get rid of his shackles.
I have always wanted unrestrained freedom, but my identity does not allow me to have the slightest slack. I didn't feel it before, but now that I think about it, this is my advantage and my biggest disadvantage.
I thought about it for a while, but I still haven't made a decision. During the half-year internship in Mingchuan, I tried many different habits from before. It was a completely different environment from the one I lived in since I was a child. I couldn't even deny it. The same temptation kept me there.
☆, new weather
After my dad left, I didn't stay with the old man for long. When I went back, I only brought a few bottles of red wine collected by the old man, and I received a big red envelope from the old man. I didn't bring much else. I talked deeply for most of the night and listened to a lot of his good words.
After I came back from there, I was full of thoughts. When I was young, except that my dad didn't like me very much, I never felt that I was no different from others. I went to the same school and lived in the same school, but my dad didn't allow me to do it. Things that embarrass him, such as going to fight with Su Changhua in elementary school, if he comes back with injuries, he will be beaten if he loses or wins, the reason is, don't fight like a punk.
Later, we learned to fight without hurting our faces. For this reason, I specially studied taekwondo, judo and other messy fighting styles for a few years, and finally I no longer looked like an ordinary hooligan.
Later, when I found that my life had been under the arrangement and monitoring of others, I was no longer as unscrupulous as before. My home is the furthest away from University B. Before the college entrance examination, I worked hard to pass the B. big.
I negotiated a deal with my dad on the condition that I was an adult. I thought he really didn't intend to control me anymore. Later I found out that he really wanted to set me free all along.
I remember the most impressive words he once said to me. On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, he talked with me seriously all night in a completely different tone than usual.
"The moment you become an adult, I should look at you with the eyes of an adult, so, I hope that starting today, you will be responsible for everything you say and do, as a son, as a man, as an heir , if you want something, go for it yourself, if you don’t do your best, then don’t try, remember, I don’t care how others educate my children, what you want, just try your best to get it.”
If I didn't understand his words at that time, now I really understand, and at this moment, I suddenly realized the responsibility on my shoulders, what I want most is freedom, before, now, and later, I'm afraid I don't want to be overwhelmed by the old man all the time.
Thinking about it this way, I quickly weighed the pros and cons in my mind, and when I saw Su Changhua again, he looked around me up and down and was amazed.
"Mingyi, why do I feel that you are exuding the radiance of the Virgin Mary everywhere now?"
"I said, have you been secretly promising me, you don't do so many things, you have time to observe me?" I raised my eyebrows and looked at the notes I took down.
Su Changhua leaned closer to me and said, "I'm really worried about you now. Last time you took the exam for B University, you worked so hard, and it turned out to be your dad's bargaining chip. What do you think you're going to do this time? Tell me, It also prepares me mentally."
I closed the book and read a little bit of "Living Law". I like a passage in it very much. In a simple summary, it is: fate does not run on a pre-laid track. According to our wishes, it can be changed for the better, or can go bad.
"I want to go abroad." My mood should be extremely calm at this time, even with my former best friend, without any discussion, I suddenly decided on the way out.
"When?" Su Changhua wasn't too surprised, he took a cigarette out of my pocket and lit it.
"I'm already preparing the materials and preparations for applying for Harvard. If there are no accidents, I will stay in Mingchuan for another semester and there will be no problems. Also, I hope you can keep it secret for me." What I used to be very resistant to, now I say it , can be so calm and composed.
Su Changhua smiled and said nothing, and I will not say more, this is the most helpless fate.
No. 12 of the seventh middle school started in January, and we had nothing to do with it. The most frustrating part of the school was that no teacher was allowed to be absent during the meeting, no matter what happened or not.
We arrived at the place one day in advance, and the furniture was covered with white cloth and there was no dust that was too eye-catching.
Mingchuan was colder than before, dry and cold, and the howling north wind penetrated directly into the person's open clothes, and the shaved cheeks were painful.
Su Changhua was wrapped up like a furry ball and despised me, although I was afraid of the cold and more impatient to dress like a bear.
There are quite a lot of activities this semester, but I also have a lot of personal affairs. I originally wanted to drop a class, but later I felt that it was not good to drop any of them. At worst, I would just stay in the office from now on.
The most common thing about the beginning of school is that there are a lot of wedding banquets, auspicious days, nothing more than May 11, New Year's Day and around the Spring Festival. There are many people to make it lively. Most of the seventh middle schools are newly graduated teachers. There are also many people talking about marriage. There is a good news, one office, one floor, one grade, everyone follows the ceremony, and no one can get away. Maybe it is different in different places, and there are not many people who follow. There are still many people who are 100 or [-]. Few people complained. After all, the salary was only a few thousand dollars, and after one month, just the gifts would cost part of it.
I don't want to live on a little salary every month, and I will have a lot of nosy things like firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea in the future. I don't want to devote all my mind to livelihood in the future. Life is too long and too short, even if it is the most basic life. , I don't want to waste any more, instead of resisting until I have to, it's better to take it step by step now.
When I get busy, I always feel that time flies very fast. Winter is coming to an end before I know it. The willows in the Golden Delta are sprouting green buds. The branches and leaves of camphor are much more lush than last year, and the room is starting to feel stuffy. up.
In fact, I am not worried about the English grading test at all. I just read some books on professional knowledge as usual, occasionally analyze marketing, and secretly invest some money in the stock market.
At first glance, it lasted from morning to afternoon. As soon as I stood up from the seat, I felt dizzy for a while, and it took a long time for the dizziness to subside.
Su Changhua said that I worked too hard, but I always felt like I didn't have enough time. I used to be too indulgent and left too much behind.
As soon as my heart calmed down, I suddenly felt that the surrounding area became much quieter. When I calmed down and thought about it, I suddenly realized that Chen Xi hadn't disturbed me for a long time, and even Jiang He rarely appeared.
I felt a little strange, I asked about the situation in Su Changhua's class, but I ignored the fact that Shen Nuo was coming to teach as an assistant, Su Changfeng wanted him to lead his class.
Although Shen Nuo studied at MIT, he came back from abroad after all, and there was always some conflict with other substitute teachers. I had a talk with Su Changfeng a few days ago, so I resigned from Class [-], and Su Changfeng went to Finding the principal to make a formality and letting Shen Nuo take over, everyone is really happy, and somehow offended the little ancestor.
I've always felt that Chen Xi's temper tantrum is more overwhelming than not having a temper. Anyone can yell at me and make a fuss, but he can't and won't.
At first, he felt that the child's temper tantrum would get better in a few days, but this time it was more serious than the last time he went to Huangshan alone with Jiang He, maybe he should have noticed it.
Thinking of this, I feel a headache. I just don't want him to know about it, but I ignore it. He is the most careful person. How can I hide it from him? I'm sick, it seems necessary to have a good talk with him.
☆, Chenxi Chenxi
This semester, No. [-] Middle School also canceled weekends and changed it to a full week, with school ending on Saturday morning. This policy hurt the hearts of many students, but it didn’t have much impact on me, but the rules for late self-study were also changed.
From Sunday to Friday, three periods of five and 10 minutes of self-study are changed to two periods of eight and 10 minutes of self-study, and there is no class scheduling. One teacher for one night is the time that has given me the most headache so far. Fortunately, one was rejected. class.
Eight to 10 minutes per class, only university professors and professional tutors can speak perfectly from the beginning to the end without stopping.
I usually hand out one paper for one class, and then give another paper for the second class. I repeat this over and over again, and the class has progressed quite a bit.
Class [-] and Class [-] are not far apart. I often see Shen Nuo who goes to the office from the door. Chen Xi hides from me on purpose. The English word notebook left in a hurry.
Chen Xi should be under some pressure in studying. His rankings in several exams have fluctuated back and forth many times. Only he has been in the No.1 seat. His scores are still very good, and there is no trace of being too biased. Many people took the exam with the goal of pulling him down from the throne.
I should be very relieved to see him studying so hard. Even so, I still don't think he has much chance of being admitted to B University.
It is as easy for students from city B to enter university B as students from province A to enter university A. However, if you cross-province, the score is much higher. Not to mention, the number of places in each province is still limited. After all, University B is built in B. The universities in the city are most convenient for students in city B.
It's not that I don't have confidence in him, I just don't have much hope for the No. [-] Middle School that is still advancing. According to my understanding, there are only a few people who can be admitted to B University every year in Mingchuan No. [-] Middle School and No. [-] Middle School. No matter how fast the development is, it is only a new school that has just been established for four years.
Lao Wang has said more than once that the most critical class of No. [-] Middle School is the first year of senior high school. Not only him, but all the teachers have great hopes for the students of this class. They all hope that this class can pass the exam. Get a good ranking and then carry forward the Seventh Middle School.
After the first monthly exam, Chenxi lived up to expectations. Even her No.1 score kept improving, especially in English and mathematics. Sometimes she could beat the top score in science classes by more than ten points.
I'm very busy, and I don't pass by the third class, and I don't usually go to the cafeteria, water room, supermarket, etc. Su Changhua chatters about any news, such as who in the third class committed something, what happened to the old class How to deal with how to clean up.
I thought he was noisy and asked him to shut up, but he still yelled in disbelief: "Isn't it just that Chen Xi was not mentioned? Don't be so impatient and obvious. Speaking of Chen Xi, there is a piece of bad news."
I was calmer than him, and before I asked him, I said it myself: "Chenxi fought with Jiang Bin today, and he is being scolded in the office, have you seen?" My first reaction was Su Changhua I was joking, and then I suddenly guessed what the reason was.
I casually asked, "Is Class Three dissatisfied with me for pushing their class instead of Class Five?"
Su Changhua said: "It's inevitable that they will have some opinions. After all, you have been in charge of the third class for a longer time."
"Anyway, we have to leave. What's the difference between one more semester and one less semester? Wouldn't it be better to let them get used to Shen Nuo faster? Go and call your brother and ask him to bring Chen Xi with him." Su Changhua He didn't call right away, but looked at me with some seriousness. Every now and then, I knew what he wanted to say.
"Mingyi, tell me, did you change because of the dawn?" I paused, and quickly shook my head as an answer.
"We've been together for more than ten years, you can't fool me." Su Changhua affirmed triumphantly.
I was silent.
Su Changhua said: "No matter where you will be in the future, no matter who you will be with in the future, whether it is Chen Xi Jiang He or someone else I don't know, Ming Yi, I hope you will be happy, do you understand?"
I actually know everything, it's just that I don't come here on my own will, and Su Changhua is even less likely to be willful.
I said: "I know." I will not let anyone interfere in my life, I will not abandon my love, and I will not express anything when I know it should not be.
"Don't worry, I will definitely train him." After saying that, Su Changhua got up and went to call his brother. I was in a state of confusion for a moment.
The teaching building is not close to the teacher's apartment building, Su Changhua went next door to cook, and I smoked here and thought about all the things that happened since I came to Mingchuan.
It is undeniable that I made up my mind to fight for rights and freedom only after I came to Mingchuan. I don’t know how much reason Chenxi has. This is not what I should think about now, even if I know many things but I can’t lie to myself , and even then, I wouldn't.
The door was gently closed by Chen Xi who came in, and she stood obediently in front of me, her face was not as white as when we were fighting back then, and I was relieved, I think it was because my classmates pulled me away or , hit somewhere else.
After I motioned him to sit casually, Shen
