Ever since he made an appointment with Su Meiren to play at her house, Mo Xiaobei seemed to be floating in the sky. He was in a very good mood. He didn't say anything when he saw things pleasing to the eye. He usually doesn't like to show expressions in front of others. There is always a smile on his face.

She has changed so obviously, and An Peiyao who lives in the same room with her is not a fool, of course she can see it.

But she looked at it coldly and didn't ask any questions. She didn't put down the pen in her hand until the end of the final exam, when she saw that she cooked noodles for her with the second-hand rice cooker she bought, and she was packing up and going home. Out loud, "Why did you go back so early this summer vacation?"

"Ah, ah!" Mo Xiaobei, who was concentrating on collecting things, was taken aback by her. When he came back to his senses, he stroked his heart and said helplessly, "Peiyao, say hello to me before you speak next time, scare me to death." I... I don't have the perseverance to work here as a summer job like you, and I have nothing to do here, so I might as well go home."

"Really." An Peiyao obviously didn't believe it. She glanced at her and didn't ask again. She just put down the pen in her hand and walked up to her, hugged her gently and said, "Thank you."

"Sud...why are you being so polite all of a sudden." Mo Xiaobei was really frightened by her. It was the first time she said that to her since they found this rental house in the first year of high school and lived together for more than a year.

"It's nothing, I just want to find someone to hug."

An Peiyao may be due to long-term malnutrition and lack of food, so her height reaches her neck. When holding her, she can just bury her head on her shoulder.

Such an intimate hug made Mo Xiaobei a little uncomfortable. When she hugged her, she froze and didn't dare to move, so she could only laugh dryly, "You...what's wrong with you?"

"Can't I hug you if it's nothing?" The person in the arms raised his head angrily, and said coldly, "If it was Su Ziqing who hugged you, would you also ask this question?"

How come, she never expected such a thing!

When Mo Xiaobei was asked this question, she blushed up to her ears, quickly waved her hands, and shook her head violently, "What are you talking about, Su...we are ordinary classmates, how could she...how could..."

Even if she was beaten to death, she couldn't say the word "hug". When she blushed to the extreme, An Peiyao let her go.

Turning around, he said, "Hurry up, isn't the 12:30 bus? I won't be able to catch up later."

"Oh, then I'm leaving, you stay here alone, remember to eat on time, I bought some rice and noodles for you, you remember to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and cook."

Only then did Mo Xiaobei heave a sigh of relief, and after exhorting her a few words habitually, he put the things he had packed into his schoolbag and ran outside in a hurry.

Seeing that she went down the stairs of the rental house and disappeared, An Peiyao fell down on the bed, staring at the opposite bed, unable to recover.

Since she was born, no one has ever treated her so well except her father who has worked so hard to raise her.Ever since she lived with Mo Xiaobei, she watched her eat and sleep, not to mention her eating habits, and even her life was very fulfilling.

But, why did they meet Su Ziqing?

Classes [-] and [-] are next door, on the first floor at the same corner, and every morning when everyone is out studying or doing cleaning, she will see Mo Xiaobei and Su Ziqing beside her.The thought of going up to say hello was also dispelled by their piercing smiles.

The low self-esteem and ignorance and heartbeat of adolescence cannot be explained by the superposition of one or two things.Especially for a girl with strong self-esteem, someone's unintentional words may dim her entire youth.

Every time she saw Su Ziqing, she felt as sad as if she had been pierced by dozens, hundreds, and thousands of thorns.

Her family background is not as good as her, her dress is not as good as her, and she is not even as tall as her in appearance.

When she was not divided into classes in the first year of high school, every time she stood with her, she felt hit by a hammer in her heart.

Although she was sad, she would never bow her head, and walked past her with her head held high every time.

She is not as good as her now, but she doesn't believe that she will still not be as good as her in the future!

Lying on the bed, grabbing the sheet, An Peiyao bit her lower lip, gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Su Ziqing..."

***

Mo Xiaobei didn't know what the person who lived with her for two years was thinking. She hurried to the station with her schoolbag on her back. In the hot weather, after getting on the bus with a bunch of people, the smell in the car was unpleasant. I don’t feel motion sickness, and my eyes are full of wanting to go home quickly and tidy up properly, so that the guests who are coming will not feel shabby.

Thinking this way, as soon as the bus arrived at the station, before her mother came to pick her up, she ran home in the scorching sun.

She didn't care about the seven or eight miles from the bus station in the small town to her home, and walked forward with her schoolbag against the sun.

When I got home, it was past four o'clock in the afternoon. Her mother was sitting at the door peeling green onions. When she saw her come back sweating profusely, she was surprised and distressed. She quickly took the schoolbag on her back and said, "You are back Why don't you tell mom? Mom is going to pick you up. Are you hungry? Mom is going to cook now."

"I'm not hungry." He ran to the washbasin and washed his face casually, without caring about changing his wet clothes, Mo Xiaobei picked up the mop and ran towards the pond in front of his house.After washing the mop with water from the pond, I hurried back to mop the floor.

"Hey, you kid, are you crazy?" Seeing her abnormal behavior, her mother quickly dropped the water scoop in her hand and ran over to stop her, "It's afternoon, why are you mopping the floor? It's tomorrow morning to clean it .”

"Mom, go get busy and leave me alone." Pushing away her mother, Mo Xiaobei stubbornly ran to the second floor of the building that their house had spent so much money to build, and carefully dragged the front, back, left, and right.

Then I hurriedly fetched water to wipe the windows several times, and then ran down to sweep the yard of the house, and then cleaned up some debris.

He was busy back and forth until at night when her father came back from the kiln where he was working, he was surprised to see how clean the house was, "Oh my God, there are thieves in our house? I put the waste in the yard." What about iron?"

"I put them in the room in front of the kitchen and packed them in a snakeskin bag." Mo Xiaobei explained to her father while eating, slurring, "Didn't I call you that day to tell you what I want tomorrow?" Why don't you come to play with some classmates, make it better in advance, otherwise it will be too shameful."

How much this classmate is valued by his daughter, that's why she has to clean up like this as soon as she comes home.

Mo Xiaobei's father and mother looked at each other, feeling that it was not easy.

Their daughter has been in school for more than ten years, and she has never heard of any friends who are so good.

When Mo Xiaobei finished his dinner and went to take a bath, Mo Xiaobei's mother took her father to discuss together, "Is our girl dating at school?"

"I didn't know, when I asked her, she was like a gourd, she didn't say a word." Her father knocked the pipe in his hand, frowned and said, "Aren't you her mother, I don't know anything about my daughter."

"Every time I call her, she always knows that she is doing well. How could I have the opportunity to ask. I didn't expect her to fall in love—by the way, I will ask tonight." Mo Xiaobei's mother defended , At the same time, I made up my mind that I must catch my daughter to ask for clarification tonight.

But before she could find a reason to ask, Mo Xiaobei went upstairs to sleep on the grounds that he was tired.

Mo Xiaobei's mother couldn't say anything, so she could only hold back all the questions she wanted to ask, and said yes with a smile.

In fact, she was agitated in her heart, fearing that her daughter would not learn well after falling in love, that it would be a trivial matter if she failed to pass the college entrance examination, and that it would be bad if she ran away with some bad boy.

After all, there are many such things in the ten miles and eight towns.

Worried and worried, Mo Xiaobei's mother didn't sleep well all night.

The next day, after dawn, she was even more anxious, but after waiting and waiting, she only waited for the three beautiful little girls brought back by her daughter, and the stone in Mo Xiaobei's mother's heart fell to the ground.

He greeted a few girls who were led home by his daughter with a smile on his face, "Hurry up, come in and sit down. I heard from Xiao Bei that you all came from the county town. It must be too hot for such a long journey. Come in and drink some water." .”

"Thank you auntie."

Several people answered the words obediently together, and slowly followed Mo Xiaobei, who was leading the way shyly, and walked in.

Having grown so big, when Su Ziqing came back to be a guest at someone else's house for the first time, she was extremely cautious, her heart pounded, and there were some fine beads of sweat on the nape of her white neck under her long hair.

However, her good upbringing finally overcame her nervousness. After walking into the house, relying on the last sliver of reason left in her mind, she handed a cigarette and a bag of tea to Mo Xiaobei's mother and said, "Auntie, let's Come here to bother me, this is what my dad asked me to bring."

"Hey, hey, if you come to play, just come and play. Why do you bring gifts?" Although Mo Xiaobei's mother is an illiterate peasant woman, she can clearly recognize the cigarettes and alcohol because she gives gifts to her uncle who is an official every year. .

Seeing clearly that the girl in front of her was holding more than 1000 cigarettes, she quickly waved her hands in fright, "Hurry up and take this thing back to your father. Xiaobei's father is used to smoking bad cigarettes. The cigarettes are so expensive, so it can't be done."

Su Ziqing laughed hurriedly, "My dad doesn't smoke. Someone gave it to him. Every year he collects so much and doesn't know where to put it. In the end, it's all wet and thrown away. It's a waste to keep it at home, and we may If you want to stay here for a while, it will cost you a lot of money, Auntie, please accept it, otherwise we will feel uneasy living here."

"That's it, then your father is really rare. Which one of the boys doesn't smoke." Mo Xiaobei's mother was full of emotion, and there was no reason to refuse. She took the things and untied them after putting them away. The apron around the waist goes outside.

While calling Mo Xiaobei, "Xiaobei, you go to accompany your classmates, and grandma goes to the market to buy vegetables."

Su Ziqing hurriedly called out, "Auntie, don't bother—"

Before she finished speaking, Mo Xiaobei's mother pushed the small tricycle and walked out.

Su Ziqing felt a little sorry, Mo Xiaobei hurried up, gave her a shy look, lowered her head and said, "My mother is like that, don't be restrained, come in and drink tea."
