Back to 1988

The time to go to Beijing for the competition was quickly determined, Mi Yang and Bai Luochuan set off together, and the participating students went home early on Thursday to pack their luggage.

After Mi Yang returned home, Cheng Qing helped him pack his luggage and said, "Yangyang, it's cold over there. I see the weather forecast says it's going to cool down. Bring a sweater and down jacket, shall we?"

Mi Yang nodded and said, "Okay."

He packed two pieces of clothes, turned his head and looked to the side, a little embarrassed to bring the little pillow.

It was something he had been using since he was a child. The pillow inside had been changed several times, and the pillowcase was still clean and soft. He used it carefully and it looked neat, but the fabric had been kneaded very soft.

Cheng Qing saw it, lowered his head and said to the little girl who followed him every step of the way: "Xiaoxue goes to the living room to help mom get the sewing box, and mom sews another button for brother."

The little girl ran to the living room on her short legs.

Cheng Qing pushed the little girl away, took apart the little pillow, took only the pillowcase and folded it up, put it in the innermost part of the suitcase for Mi Yang, smiled and said: "I thought you didn't use it for the past two years."

Mi Yangjie has had this little pillow for a year or two, and he took it to school intermittently. Although he can still fall asleep now, when he is not with him, he always sleeps restlessly, waking up twice a night.There were two people in school, Bai Luochuan, who said that it was okay to be distracted by talking, but now that they go out to compete, they can't sleep well at night for fear of delaying things.

Cheng Qing just joked with him, her son made her feel at ease everywhere, let alone bring a pillow, she agreed to bring three or five.After packing his luggage, Cheng Qing gave him some money and said, "Didn't Luo Chuan go too? If you have time after the competition, go for a stroll. Don't worry about studying and tire yourself out."

Mi Yang took the money and said, "Got it."

The little girl brought the sewing box, and Cheng Qing sewed two stitches on Mi Yang's clothes, and the little girl leaned over to talk to her brother: "Brother, are you going to Beijing?"

Mi Yang hugged her on his lap and said, "Yes."

The little girl bit her finger and asked him: "Dad brought some delicious snacks last time, is that from Beijing?" There was a pause in the middle, and she swallowed her saliva.

Mi Yang smiled and said, "Well, I'll bring it for you too, but I still want Beijing eight pieces of dim sum and preserved crabapple, right?"

The little girl was very happy, and when she nodded, she shook her braid and hugged Mi Yang's arm and said coquettishly, "I like my brother the most!"

Cheng Qing asked her: "Why, don't you like me the most today?"

The little girl quickly said softly: "I also like my mother the most, and I usually like my father."

Yone Zehai happened to come back from get off work, and when he heard such a sentence, his heart was about to break, so he walked in and grabbed the little girl without changing his shoes, got up and stabbed her with stubble. Alright talk!"

The little girl hid twice, but couldn't dodge, giggling non-stop.

The school attached great importance to this competition, especially Bai Luochuan and his group, which were all provincial seed players, and the school teachers specially led the team to participate in the competition.In comparison, Mi Yang's interest group is more like a soy sauce, but they don't fight for anything, and it's interesting to discuss models together.

After getting on the plane, Bai Luochuan changed seats and sat next to Mi Yang.He is now 1.7 meters tall, still growing, and still maintains a posture that is half a head taller than Mi Yang.

Mi Yang is very popular, and the students from the aircraft model interest group who came with him all handed him water and snacks, and a small bottle of chewing gum.

Mi Yang ate one, and lowered his head to ask Bai Luochuan: "Chewing gum, do you want to eat?"

Bai Luochuan shook his head, lowered the brim of his hat a little, and leaned his head on Mi Yang's shoulder to sleep.

Bai Luochuan's eyes were still a little dark from lack of sleep. When Mrs. Bai sent him here this morning, she still felt sorry for him, and told Mi Yang that "study is too hard". I got sleepy from playing games last night.Because I knew that I would have to take a car all day when I came out today, and I had time to catch up on sleep, so I played until midnight without any scruples.

Bai Luochuan is full of energy, and he is alive and kicking after a few hours of sleep. Mi Yang sometimes can't stand him. His biological clock is the same as that of middle-aged and elderly people, with a special pattern. Every night, he lays down early in the morning and falls asleep after reading a book for a while.Bai Luochuan is the exact opposite of him. He has been charging with solar energy since he was a child. He wakes up automatically at dawn, and has to use up all the battery power before he is willing to sleep honestly. Sometimes he does not sleep enough, and he is full of energy after making up for an hour or two during the day. up.

Mi Yang was so envious.

When the plane was about to land, Bai Luochuan woke up, he was drowsy, Mi Yang unscrewed the mineral water for him, and he took a sip from Mi Yang's hand.

Mi Yang asked him in a low voice: "Do you still drink? Do you want to eat?"

Bai Luochuan shook his head: "No more."

He sat there for a while, still a little dazed, and said to Mi Yang, "I had a dream."

Mi Yang asked him: "What did you dream about?"

Bai Luochuan said: "Going back to the border town, going on a spring outing with Tang Xiao, squad leader, Xiaopang and the others, it's also noisy..."

Mi Yang also misses the children in Class [-] of three years. They studied elementary school for a year in the border town, but a lot of things happened.At the beginning, the two sides still communicated with each other, but gradually after entering junior high school, there were very few contacts. Mi Yang also received a photo of his elementary school graduation, which they took specially, leaving two spots for him and Bai Luochuan, When the name was printed on the back, the two of them were added by hand.

Mi Yang treasured it and let it go.

Hearing Bai Luochuan mention it now, he felt a little nostalgic and said: "When you have time later, you can go back and have a look."

Bai Luochuan said, "Yes."

During the two-hour journey, Young Master Bai slept all the way. Now that he has had a full sleep, he has recovered his energy. He looks like a handsome young man in good spirits again.

After the plane landed, everyone went to the hotel separately.

Because the competition venues are not in the same place, Bai Luochuan and Mi Yang lived in different places. Mi Yang followed his classmates to a slightly remote hotel, and the accommodation conditions were okay. Anyway, it was only a day of competition, and soon It can be over.

The classmate who lives in the same room as him is also a cheerful person, he doesn't have the arrogance of the rich second generation, and he is very polite to Mi Yang.They usually meet in interest groups, except that the models don’t talk much, and it’s rare to have the opportunity to meet in private. He was quite curious about Mi Yang, and asked him, “You know Bai Luochuan very well, did you also know him before?” Participated in the Olympiad? I remember you also won the prize."

Mi Yang smiled and said: "It's all about elementary school. I haven't participated since junior high school."

The other party said: "It's a pity."

Mi Yang didn't think it was a pity. After he came to the school in Shanghai, he participated in many competitions. When he was in elementary school, he participated in an Olympiad with Bai Luochuan. After entering junior high school, he knew himself. went.

He didn't have such a great love for mathematics. Later, he saw that there was an aircraft model team in the school. He had a special liking for this kind of delicate work, so he went to participate in several competitions with only one goal, to win prizes for Buddhism. .The ranking doesn't matter, their school has a rule that students who receive provincial awards will be given bonuses, and a part of the tuition fee will be reduced or exempted based on the comprehensive scores of the year.

Mi Yang also went to participate in the competition in the second semester of the third year of this year, for no other reason, just for this bonus and deduction.

The tuition of this school is too expensive.

Although Yone Zehai and Cheng Qing's income is good, they still have a younger sister in their family. Recently, Cheng Qing wants to take over the current pharmacy store. There are many places that need money, so saving is not harmful at all.

Mi Yang has participated in many of these competitions in school, and has accumulated a little popularity over the past few years, but it is still far behind Bai Luochuan, a celebrity in the school.A large part of the reason why everyone remembered him was "Bai Luochuan's younger brother".

Young Master Bai has grown up a few years, and he still has no restraint outside, the territory is clearly divided, and the people in the territory can't wait to be enclosed within the range of his hands and feet, so that no one can touch him, protecting his weaknesses to death .

Thanks to him, Mi Yang didn't get bullied by anyone until he was about to graduate from junior high school, but he didn't make a few friends at school.

After the airplane model competition, Mi Yang and his team won a second prize. Because the competition level was relatively high, everyone was very happy to get the second prize. The teacher took them to have a meal to celebrate, and ordered the mandarin duck pot.

Many students can't eat too spicy, but Mi Yang likes it very much, especially the duck blood inside, which is very tender. It can be eaten when it is boiled in the red soup for a while, and it can be eaten when it rolls and floats. It is spicy and delicious, and it melts in the mouth. .

Mi Yang ate half of the plate by himself, very satisfied.

The classmate next to me was stunned and said, "I thought you only liked sweets, but I didn't expect you to be so good at spicy food?"

Mi Yang remembered that he had set up the sweet party for Young Master Bai, and said with a smile: "I'm not picky about food, they are all delicious."

After the meal, Mi Yang asked the teacher for leave and went to Bai Luochuan.

Bai Luochuan's match will be over in two more days, and it happens to be the match on Friday and Saturday, so it's just right for him to go back with Sunday, so as not to miss class on Monday.

When Mi Yang got up to leave, a piece of news flashed across the TV hanging in the hot pot restaurant. The report of a man in white clothes and full armor pushing an emergency patient only lasted for more than a minute, and did not attract everyone's attention.

Mi Yang bent down to pick up the scarf and hat, but he didn’t see the news. He wrapped his down jacket and stood at the entrance of the hotel to take a taxi. He looked outside through the window of the taxi. It was still very cold in Beijing in early spring, and the heat he exhaled was very hot. Soon a small mist formed on the window.

When Mi Yang arrived there, he called Bai Luochuan in the lobby. Young Master Bai quickly came down to claim it, took him to open a room, and asked him while carrying the suitcase, "Is it cold outside?"

With his hands still in his pockets, Mi Yang covered half of his face with the scarf and said, "It's okay."

Bai Luochuan glanced at him and smiled: "Why are you still so afraid of the cold? Go in and turn on the air conditioner to warm you up."

Bai Luochuan deliberately chose a room on the same floor as himself, so he had no intention of leaving. The classmates who were with him kept knocking on the door and calling him, so he reluctantly went out. He stood at the door and talked in a low voice, before he agreed with a frown. Said: "Understood, it will be over in a while."

He came back and took his coat and room card, and said to Mi Yang: "I'll come back later, the teacher told us to give a lecture. There will be experimental questions tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so we need to make some preparations."

Mi Yang said: "Okay."

Bai Luochuan walked both sides, then turned back and said to him, "Go to bed first when you're tired. I'll ask someone to bring another quilt. You can open the door later and let him spread it for you."

Mi Yang was sitting in the room wearing a thick sweater, holding a cup of hot water and already warming up a lot, he smiled and nodded: "Got it."
