Yuan Xia arrived at the school one day earlier than the start time, and cleaned up after arriving, removing and washing the quilt and bed sheets.

I thought that the weather would be good, and the washed quilt would be dried in the evening, but the weather changed in the middle of the afternoon, and the rain did not fall, and it became gloomy. up.

Yuan Xia thought about it, and simply ran to find Yu Xingyi, maybe he could spend the night at his place.

When Yuan Xia arrived at the bearing factory, he was just in time to get off work, so he didn't go in to find Yu Xingyi, intending to see if he could squat down to Yu Xingyi.If he doesn't work the day shift, then he should go back to cover the cotton tires.

This time Yuan Xia was lucky and successfully squatted down to Yu Xingyi, but he was not alone, there was a girl pushing a women's bicycle beside him talking to him.

The girl had curly hair that was just becoming popular nowadays, and she was wearing a camel-colored short woolen coat and half-high-heeled leather shoes, looking very fashionable.

Yuan Xia recognized that it was Xiang Ling, the daughter of the factory director Xiang Fugui, and she openly pursued Yu Xingyi for a long time. The degree of madness was a bit unbearable, and she was also the one who made Yu Xingyi decide to leave the bearing factory.

Yu Xingyi frowned slightly, raised his eyes and looked around, obviously impatient to deal with it, and didn't listen attentively at all.

Suddenly, with joy on his face, he said something to Xiang Ling, raised his hand as a gesture, and walked towards Yuan Xia pushing the cart.

Yuan Xia laughed, took a few steps forward, and waited for Yu Xing to approach before saying hello: "Off work? I'm still worried that you will be on night shift today."

With a warm smile on Yu Xingyi's face, he was completely different from just now: "I don't work the night shift today, go to my house."

"Okay." This was exactly what Zhongyuan Xia wanted.

As soon as Yu Xing got on the bike, he said to Yuan Xia: "Come on."

Yuan Xia stepped up and said, "Okay, let's go."

He turned his head to look at the crowd, and Xiang Ling was standing there staring at them.

Although women are usually on the weak side in the relationship between the sexes, Yuan Xia does not sympathize with Xiang Ling. It is not that she looks down on women chasing men, but that she is too arrogant. , caused him great distress.

After the car left the range of the bearing factory, Yuan Xia asked, "Who is the girl who was talking to you just now?"

"A colleague. When did you arrive?" Yu Xingyi obviously didn't want to talk about Xiang Ling.

"Arrived at noon."

Yu Xingyi said, "Should we go out to eat, or buy some food and cook it ourselves?"

"Are you doing it?" Yuan Xia asked excitedly.

"Yes, but it's not as delicious as yours."

"Haha, it's up to the customer, I will eat whatever you do, try your handicraft. Go shopping for vegetables, can you still buy vegetables now?" Yuan Xia asked.

"It seems to be possible. I passed the vegetable market after get off work and saw someone selling vegetables at the entrance."

"Then go and see. Do you usually eat out more, or do you cook more?"

"I usually eat in the cafeteria or outside, and occasionally cook at home. It's too troublesome to cook alone."

"I understand. I have to buy vegetables, I have to do it, and I have to wash the dishes. Just put the bowl away after eating outside."

Yu Xingyi laughed: "Yes. Isn't that what a bachelor is like."

The place where Yu Xingyi lives is a little far from the bearing factory, and it takes nearly half an hour to ride a bicycle, which is actually quite torturous in winter, and the cold wind is like a knife.

In fact, the factory provided dormitories for the employees. Yu Xingyi was a college student, so he was considered a cadre, so the factory arranged a double room for him.

However, he only stayed for a few nights before giving up the idea of ​​living there, because Xiang Ling ran to his dormitory almost every day, never treating himself as an outsider, nor considering the difference between men and women.

Yu Xingyi didn't want to end up living in the dormitory with a problem of male and female style. After all, he couldn't guarantee that his roommate would always be there. I can only marry her.

So he would rather be a little troublesome, and would rather live outside than live in a dormitory.

The place where Yu Xingyi lives is not his family's house. His family's house has now become the office of a certain unit. He is still working hard for his grandfather's redress, and strives to return to his own house as soon as possible. The place where he lives now It was rented after entering the bearing factory.

Yuan Xia has been to this place twice. During his study at the bearing factory, he was invited by Yu Xingyi.

I rented the third floor of a local family. There are two rooms in the front and back. The outer room is used as a kitchen and living room, and the inner room is a bedroom.

As soon as Yu Xing opened the door, he said to Yuan Xia: "Come in, you sit first, and I'll cook."

He lifted the kettle on the coal stove, looked at it, and saw that there was still a dark red fire, and then opened the vent a little to let the fire rise slowly.

Yuan Xia looked at it curiously, and said, "If the stove burns for a day, won't it go out if you don't change the coal in the middle?"

Yu Xingyi said: "At noon, the landlady will help me change the briquettes. It's too cold, and I can't use cold water to wash my face in the morning and evening, so I still have to light a stove and boil water for drinking."

"Yes, although living alone, you can't be too sloppy." Yuan Xia agreed very much. Yu Xingyi obviously lived alone for many years and has already mastered life skills.

Yuan Xia entered the house and looked at the house with simple furnishings. Outside there was a dining table, two chairs, and a desk. The coal stove was placed in the corridor to avoid oily smoke and gas.

In the inner room is a single bed with a width of 1.2 meters. The quilt on the bed is neatly folded, and there is a chair next to the bed with a few books on it.

Under the window stood a table with drawers, covered with books.Next to the desk and against the wall is a double-door cabinet, on which is an older leather suitcase.

Yu Xingyi's possessions are extremely simple, almost none of them are superfluous, which makes people feel distressed.

Seeing that Yu Xing was washing rice, Yuan Xia said, "Let me help you choose vegetables."

Yu Xingyi stopped him: "No, I will do it myself."

Yuan Xia looked at him amusedly: "Then let me watch you do things?"

Yu Xing thought for a while: "It seems that there is nothing else, are you reading?"

"I don't want to read it. School starts tomorrow, are you afraid that you don't have time to read?"

"Okay, then let's choose dishes together."

So the two chatted while cooking, and made dinner.The food was simple, only green vegetables were sold in the evening, Yu Xingyi fried four eggs, fried a green vegetable, mixed with shredded lettuce.

"It's all vegetarian, not as rich as yours." Yu Xing said with a smile.

Yuan Xia smiled: "Didn't you buy my family's abundance? The home-cooked food is quite good, who can feast on fish and meat every day."

After eating and tidying up, Yu Xingyi showed Yuan Xia his photo album, mainly photos of Yu Xingyi and his family, his father was handsome and elegant, his mother was beautiful and intellectual, and his sister was also very beautiful.

There are many photos of Yu Xingyi and his sister when they were young, probably his father had a camera and took more photos of his son and daughter.When I was growing up, I took very few photos, and there were some when I was in college.

He is really handsome since he was a child, he was naughty and cute when he was young, and he became more serious when he grew older, this is the result of experience.

The latest one was taken at Yuan Xia's house during the Chinese New Year, only one was taken by Yuan Xia alone, and the rest were group photos with other people.

Yuan Xia had received these photos two days ago, and it was the first time for everyone to take so many photos, and they couldn't put it down.

What Yu Xingyi was most satisfied with was the photo with Yuan Xia, both of them were very relaxed, with relaxed and natural smiles on their faces.

After seeing the photos, Yu Xing took a look at his watch: "Are you going back tonight?"

Yuan Xia squinted at Yu Xingyi with a smile: "You take me in?"

As soon as Yu Xing looked at Yuan Xia's smiling face, something moved in his heart. His throat was a little tight, and he opened his mouth and said, "Yes. There will be no buses right now, unless I take you back."

Yuan Xia said: "It's too hard for you to run back and forth, so I won't go back. Your bed is a bit narrow, will it squeeze you?"

"It's okay, neither of us is fat, a squeeze should work." Yu Xing licked his lips.

Yuan Xia suddenly snickered: "Actually, I washed the quilt today, but the weather changed in the afternoon, so I didn't do it, so I just wanted to come to your place for a night."

Yu Xing laughed as soon as he heard it: "No problem, it's what I wish for. Then I'll go and see if the water is ready, so I can soak my feet in hot water."

Yu Xingyi poured a large basin of hot water, and the two of them took off their shoes and socks and soaked their feet in the basin.The basin is not big, so the two of them put their feet on top of each other, Yuan Xia stepped on Yu Xing's instep, and scratched his foot vigorously with his toes: "I'll rub your feet for you hahaha."

Yu Xingyi made the soles of his feet itch, and the itch seemed to reach the bottom of his heart and palms again, he couldn't tell what it was like, he clenched his fist, pulled out one foot, and pressed it on Yuan Xia's instep: " I'll rub it for you too."

The two stepped on each other in the water, and finally the water was splashed out, so they gave up.

I don't know if it's because the water is too hot, or because of some other reasons, apart from the redness of their feet, even their faces are a little red.

Went to bed, each with one head, sat under the quilt and read a book for a while.Yu Xingyi understood Yuan Xia's hard work today, so he turned off the lights and urged him to sleep.

Yuan Xia was lying on the bed, next to Yu Xingyi's body, all he breathed was Yu Xingyi's breath, his soul and body couldn't help trembling.

Yu Xingyi felt it: "What's the matter, are you cold? You are shaking."

Yuan Xia gritted her teeth, controlled her trembling, and said, "A little bit, I'll cover it with a cotton coat."

"I'll go get the bed blanket again, just cover it." Yu Xingyi tried to get up.

Yuan Xia raised his arms and pressed his legs to keep him from moving: "No need, it was a little bit after I just fell asleep, and it will be warmer later."

Yu Xingyi was dubious: "Don't catch a cold here."

Yuan Xia couldn't laugh or cry: "No, I'm an adult anyway, not a child. Go to sleep."

Yu Xingyi said: "Okay, if you feel cold, you can stay next to me, I usually feel hot when I sleep until the middle of the night."

"OK."

This night was a sweet and tormenting night for Yuan Xia, he didn't know when he fell asleep.

When he woke up the next day, Yu Xingyi had already woken up. Outside the window of his bedroom was a balcony where clothes were dried. He was drying something outside, so he woke up so early to wash clothes?

Yuan Xia sat up and felt something strange about his body, his face turned red immediately, he had a wet dream on Yu Xingyi's bed!This is too embarrassing, he got up quickly, put on his outer pants, don't be seen as strange, fortunately, there is no criminal evidence on the mattress.

Yu Xingyi came in from the balcony outside, closed the door, and said, "Are you up? Are you sleeping well? Your face is a little red."

Yuan Xia quickly took a look at Yu Xing, looked away, and said, "Sleeping with you is indeed a bit hot."

Yu Xing smiled: "It's good that it's not cold. You can wash up, I'll go down and buy some breakfast."

Yuan Xia nodded, resisting the wet feeling on his body, he wished he could run back to school to change now.

After breakfast, Yuan Xia went out with Yu Xingyi, Yu Xingyi went to work by bike, he took a bus back to school, there was no direct bus from school to his home, so he had to take another bus, which was really inconvenient.

Back at school, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the dormitory, he quickly took off his pants and washed them, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Thinking of last night's experience, I couldn't help but giggle again.

Liu Yang pushed the door open and came in: "Liu'er, what are you laughing at? You look full of spring, are you talking to someone?"

Yuan Xia came back to his senses: "No, it's been a year since I went back, where did I find my partner?"

"Then you have a wretched smile on your face."

"You're so wretched! A dog can't spit out ivory." Yuan Xia spat at him.

The school has started, and the new year has begun, everything is full of hope, Yuan Xia feels that everything is beautiful, and it is worth going all out!

Life is still the same, apart from attending classes and being a tutor, it is just studying, oh, and receiving Yu Xingyi every now and then.

Yu Xingyi has grown up and studied more diligently this semester, whenever he is free, he will come here, borrow books, audit, participate in the activities of the science and technology club, and go to self-study with Yuan Xia, as if he is a bigger auditor.

Entering March, there is more rain, pattering, and it is the spring rain that is as expensive as oil, but it is too much, and it is a bit annoying when it rains too much.

On this day, Yuan Xia received a letter from his family, and something happened that made him very disturbed. A street thief came to his house to rent a bookstore and asked for a fee.

Their small shop was targeted by street thieves, and they used high-sounding reasons, saying that they were speculating, disrupting social order, and they would report if they didn't pay favors.

In fact, it is bullying that grandpa is a foreigner, and his younger brothers and sisters are not there during class, so he can't speak the local language.Xenophobic bullying exists no matter which species or environment it is in.

The first time grandpa said all the good things, but he didn't give money, and the other party took some bread.

He came again the next day and took away a few comic books. Grandpa tried to grab them, but was pushed and almost fell down.

Seeing this, Yuan Xia was so anxious that she immediately asked her roommate to ask for leave from her homeroom teacher, while she went straight to the train station. When she arrived at the station, she remembered that she didn't ask for leave from the parents of the students, but she couldn't take care of it either. There is nothing more important than family members. Important, he has to deal with this matter.

In the past two years, social security has deteriorated visibly. Many educated youths who have returned to the city and young people who have graduated from middle school are unemployed at home. There are not so many jobs for them in the factory, and they hang around all day long with nothing to do.

Some people who love leisure, hate work and misbehavior start to sneak around, and even start to extort. Yuan Xia's book rental store became the target of their extortion.

There are only old people and children in the family, and they are the most likely to be bullied. Yuan Xia will inevitably panic when he thinks of this. In fact, he has thought of it a long time ago and told his grandfather, don't fight hard with these people, and don't let yourself get hurt.

However, we can't blindly give in when dealing with these people, otherwise, the small profit from renting the bookstore will not be enough to fill the desires of these gangsters, and it is inevitable to go back and solve this problem in person.The letter was sent three days ago, I just hope nothing happened in these three days.

It was raining, Yuan Xia walked in a hurry, didn't even take an umbrella, came out of the train station, ran to the bus platform, and then ran back to the store from the bus platform.

The small shop that was originally tidy and warm is now in a mess, books are scattered all over the floor, grandpa is sitting on the ground, and the old man in his 70s is crying with tears in his eyes.

Yuan Xia felt as if his heart had been pricked by a needle, he knelt down on the ground with a plop, and asked in a crying voice: "Grandpa, grandpa, are you alright?"

Yuan Dehou lifted up his mother-in-law's tearful eyes and looked at his eldest grandson, thinking he was dazzled. He hurriedly wiped away his tears and tried to stand up: "I, I'm fine. Xia Xia, are you back?"

Yuan Xia's heart ached to death, he helped the old man up: "How did you fall down?"

Yuan Dehou said: "The little bastards came to ask me for protection money again. They came to ask for protection money yesterday, and they came again today. How can we have so much money for our small business? If I don't give it, they will take our books. , I went to grab it, and they pushed me to the ground."

Yuan Xia said, "Grandpa, let's go, I'll take you to the hospital."

Yuan Dehou hurriedly shook his head: "No, if you don't go to the hospital, how much will it cost? I'm fine."

"No, you were pushed and fell on the ground by them, and you have to ask them to pay for medical expenses. When you go to the hospital for an examination, you say that you are in pain all over and that you don't feel well anywhere. If you dare to bully us, I won't let them lose everything. Not Yuan!" Yuan Xia said through gritted teeth.

Yuan Dehou looked at his eldest grandson: "Really?"

Yuan Xia said firmly: "Grandpa, you believe in me, it will definitely be possible!"
