1987, I didn't know I would meet you

"Mom, I'm back!"

Opening the door, I dragged my luggage and yelled into the room, but no one answered.

"Mother?" I walked in and looked inside curiously, only to see Meng Ting lying there obediently doing her homework.

"Brother!" Meng Ting glanced up, saw that it was me, jumped up excitedly and ran towards me.

"Hey, why are you alone?"

"Father is still busy in the store, and mother took the second brother to make amends." Tingting answered me obediently with her big watery eyes.

"Apologize?" I raised my eyebrows, puzzled.

"Second brother is naughty, not as good as Tingting, and smashed the head of other people's little brother."

"What? Is the injury serious?"

"Yeah! It's scary, the blood is flowing down the head!" Tingting broke away from my arms, pointed her finger to her forehead and then slid to her chin very vividly.

My heart skipped a beat, this is not good.How could this kind of thing happen even when I went back to my hometown, Zhiyuan has always been quite obedient, how could...

With a "click", as the door was locked, I turned around and went to the door.

"Tell me about you, even if people say that, you can't do anything!"

It's Zhiyuan and his mother.She was holding Zhiyuan's ears with a stern face, hating iron and steel, and scolding harshly.Zhiyuan didn't talk back, but kept his head down, looking pitiful.

"Mother, Zhiyuan."

"Zhiqing? You're back."

"This time I came back, Zhiyuan gave me a surprise." I glanced at the child with his head down. He was obviously a little excited when he heard my voice, but he didn't show it well. He looked up aggrievedly. He glanced at me and lowered his head again.

"Did you hear what Mengting said? This bastard, he ran out as soon as he couldn't stand it. It's nothing to play, and he even beat up other children!"

"What's up now?"

"Fortunately, the injury was not serious, the skin was scratched and a few drops of blood bleed, he went to the hospital and now he was brought back by his parents." The mother said quietly, and entered the room with a long sigh.

I hesitated for a moment, then turned my head and glanced at Mengting, that girl was still looking at me with wide eyes.I'm not serious...

"Okay, don't stand here anymore." I stepped forward and patted Zhiyuan on the shoulder in relief, and smiled faintly at him.Zhiyuan is not such a naughty child.

"Come on, tell me, why did you hit someone?"

Zhiyuan stood there quietly, and when he heard my question, he couldn't help raising his head to look at his mother who was sitting next to him.

"Because, because...he, he laughed at our family..."

"Tell...say we are from the countryside...a smell, a taste of the earth..." Zhiyuan said, his eye circles slowly turned red, and finally looked at me with aggrieved eyes, suddenly forgetting his arms, He was stubborn and refused to look up.

I was taken aback, and looked at my mother, obviously my mother was also taken aback, I didn't expect Zhiyuan to say such words.

The choking sound of the child in my arms also gradually subsided. Neither my mother nor I spoke, and the room was very quiet for a while.

I don't know how long it took, but my mother slowly stood up, with a disappointed expression, and left the house without saying a word.I looked at my mother's back and felt an unusually heavy heart. I touched Zhiyuan's little head comfortingly and said softly.

"Next time, don't hit anyone again."

The little head in his arms nodded, and after sniffing, he finally raised his head and looked at me with teary eyes.

On this day, I greeted my family early and went to school.There are still a day or two before leaving school, but I went there early.Because of what happened to Zhiyuan last time, the mother also sent the two children to school early this time, so she could not be distracted and busy with the business in the store.

For a while, I was the only one left at home, and it was really boring.

It was okay before, I could read books or something, but now, as soon as I pick up a book and look at it, I can't help but feel dazed.Since when, even this little time will not be spent.

Maybe it’s because I’m used to Yang Zhenyu’s blah blah blah by my side. Even if he doesn’t speak and stands beside him, he still has a sense of presence, which makes it impossible to ignore.

So I packed up my things and went to school as early as possible. If I was too busy, I could go for a walk or look for Xiao Bowen.

"Hey, Zhenyu, it's so early this year?" Bowen was wearing a big white apron, and saw that I was bending over to greet me at the rice cooker.

"It's not too early, just because I don't feel too tired on the first day of school. You know, there must be a lot of people on the first day of school." I took the lunch box with a smile on my face.

After a while, Xiao Bowen came running from the kitchen with a grin on his face.

"Not busy, I'll chat with you for a while, but I'm so bored, I'm alone."

"How's the job going?"

"Yes, the aunts and uncles in the back are very kind to me. Speaking of which, I have to thank you very much."

"Thank you for what, I didn't help you." I smiled, and started chatting with him casually.

"By the way, why didn't you come to work in a bar this winter vacation?"

"I'm back home."

"Oh... no wonder, the boss asked me about you."

...

"Hey, Zhiqing." While talking, Xiao Bowen suddenly lay down and looked at me with a mysterious expression.

"Ok?"

"Do you recognize that girl? Why do I feel that she keeps looking this way!"

I followed his gaze suspiciously.

That, that is!

The girl suddenly realized that someone had discovered her, and she blushed and lowered her head like a frightened rabbit. However, she raised her head in embarrassment after a while, and waved her hand in the direction she had been looking at.

I smiled at her politely and waved.

The girl hesitated for a moment, got up and walked towards me slowly.

"Hey? I know you!" Bowen's eyes were full of interest, he looked at me and then at the girl with a gossipy face, and finally patted me with an expression of "I understand you", and then ran back back kitchen.

"Zhiqing, you came so early!"

"Well, you came quite early."

"The one just now, your friend?"

"Yes."

"Oh..." Shen Manqing pursed her lips and her smile gradually faded.

The atmosphere became embarrassing for a while, but I didn't pay attention to it as I had been burying my head in eating. After a while, I raised my head and asked her as if I had just woken up from a dream.

"did you eat?"

"Ah... um! Eat it!"

I nodded, but didn't intend to continue the conversation.

"Zhiqing, winter vacation... what have you been doing?" Man Qing's joyful voice sounded from the opposite side, and for some reason, the voice trembled slightly.

"I didn't do anything, I went back to my hometown for a new year."

"Oh... the whole family?"

"No, I went back alone." I raised my head in response, and she continued to lower her head to eat, "I'm not alone, I went with Yang Zhenyu." Suddenly remembered something, and raised her head again with a smile that was not a smile. said a word.

"What? Yang Zhenyu?"
