My green plums are very sour

Everyone’s life circle in a small city is similar, and you don’t see each other every day. Your elementary school classmates will probably still accompany you in the next six years of middle school life, continuing to be in the same school, or even in the same class.

When we went to take the placement test a week before the start of school, we didn't expect that everyone would be assigned to the same class, not only the three of us, but also Qiu Zicheng.A Rui said that he was haunted by ghosts, and there were more than a dozen classes in one grade, so he insisted on following us with the cheek.Qiu Zicheng smiled very meanly, and raised a bar with A Rui, saying that if he had known that he would be assigned with us, he would have handed in a blank paper in the exam.

In many cases, the significance of the placement test is to screen potential students and ordinary students, so as to concentrate teachers for key training.

At that time, my eyes were blackened after the exam, and I spent at least half an hour on the last big math problem, and I couldn't figure it out no matter how much I struggled.I didn't know until after school started that I needed to use linear equations in two variables to solve the problem, but I'm not the kind of Ning Ran who would just read a book when I have nothing to do.

I was very surprised that Ning Ran did not enter the experimental class.Because from what I know about her, if she plays normally, she will definitely be assigned to the best class.After all, he won the top five in the school in the junior high school entrance examination, and his strength lies in that.

But on the first day of school, when we checked the list in each classroom upstairs and downstairs, we found out that she was assigned to the ordinary class, and she was with me and A Rui, and Qiu Zicheng's name was also on the list.

"What happened? Did I make a mistake? Someone has the same name as Ning Ran? Why don't we continue to go to those classes later?" I stuck my index finger on the list posted on the wall and turned to look at Ning Ran.

She glanced at my finger, her expression was very calm, she pushed A Rui and me into the classroom with two hands respectively, "Don't look, it's me."

"But..." I still felt a little strange, I looked at A Rui, and found that she also looked blank.

"During the placement test, I deliberately did fewer questions." Ning Ran took our collars to find an empty seat and sat down, explaining softly, "I heard that the atmosphere in the experimental class is not very good, so I'm still in the ordinary class. Just wait. Anyway, where is it not learning?"

Although I feel a little pity for her, I am still happy in my heart. Being able to continue to study and live with my familiar friends can somewhat soothe my nervousness when I first arrived in a strange environment.

The feeling of stepping into the gate of junior high school is completely different from that of elementary school.You can feel this difference just from the spirit of the people around you.

Even if someone has already started to try to get in touch with things of a higher age before taking the junior high school entrance examination and entering junior high school, they always have the taste of some children stealing adult clothes, full of a sense of disobedience.

However, once they took off their red scarves and stepped on bicycles to the boulevard of junior high school, everyone unconsciously regarded themselves as adults, and began to wander between childishness and maturity.It seems that he has grown up, but the growth rate of his mind has not been able to keep up with the development and changes of his body.In today's words, it is to compare the second.

For people like me who are always one step behind, in a new environment, if you fight alone, you may fall behind and lose touch with your peers.

I looked around, and half of the seats in the classroom were already occupied. Many of them were sitting next to each other like us, chatting eagerly, and we knew each other at a glance.The few students who were alone were almost listening to the music silently with earplugs on. If someone came in at the door, they would look up and look there lazily.

If it weren't for the fact that A Rui and Ning Ran were by my side, I might be one of them too.

Just as I was thinking, a tall and thin figure blocked the door of the classroom. After looking around for a while, he walked towards us.

"Hi, I met an old acquaintance again." Qiu Zicheng consciously pulled away the empty chair next to him and sat down, threw his schoolbag on the desk, and smiled with his chin propped.

Among the boys of the same age, he is considered to have drawn a bar earlier, and he seems to be 1.7 meters long.The voice is also deeper than before, far from the eunuch's voice when I was a child.The contours of the face became more obvious, and began to have some edges and corners.

A Rui laughed and tried to push him aside, "What are you doing sitting here? There are empty seats everywhere, don't come next to us."

Although Qiu Zicheng is thin, but sitting there is as stable as Mount Tai, allowing A Rui to exert strength in his hands, but not to move, with a shy smile on his face, he said shamelessly, "I don't want to, but, everyone is new here, I I just know the three of you, so let's get closer and take care of you. Don't be so unfeeling to your old tablemate."

A Rui was just joking, but when he heard him say that, she withdrew her hand, shook her head and laughed, and didn't argue with him again.

The two of them have always been like this in the past few years. It looks like they are going to quarrel at any time, but they actually get along very well.At first I also thought it was quite strange, but when I thought about it, Ning Ran and I were also like this, although there would be some unpleasantness, but we would make up soon, so I thought that it might be like this between the same table, there is nothing wrong with it.

Our new homeroom teacher is a female teacher who teaches English. She looks about 30 or 40 years old, and she is well maintained. She seems to have a soft light on her body, and she is easy to get close to.Her name and phone number were written on the blackboard.

Since all the students in the class arrived at the beginning of the opening ceremony, the head teacher didn't say much, let us go to the playground to gather first, and then tell us when we come back.

The new school has some history, and traces of the years can be found everywhere.

There are two tall ginkgo trees planted under the teaching building. Although it is almost the end of summer when the school starts, the ginkgo leaves on the trees are still lush, and there are only dots of mottled spots on the ground.The trunk of the ginkgo tree is so thick that no one can hug it. My dad said that these two trees had grown there when he was studying, and they were quite old.

The school playground looked even more dilapidated, the football field was sparsely covered with withered grass, and most of the places were dry yellow sand.The surrounding runway is still paved with carbon slag, and it is easy to slip if you walk lightly.

Qiu Zicheng said that we should take care of each other, so he really followed us, relying on his height, he acted as a telescope to point us in the direction, and led us to the class assembly.

Naturally, I was very excited to participate in the opening ceremony of junior high school for the first time. Looking around, I felt that everything was fresh. Ning Ran grabbed my wrist and dragged me. There are so many people on the playground, and if I don’t pay attention, I will get separated.

A Rui was no better than me, and she chattered endlessly along the way, for fear that people would not know that she was a freshman in junior high school.

The opening ceremony is actually just a set of rhetoric. I once wondered if every principal had the same manuscript. When the school starts in September, it is a clear autumn, and when the school starts in March, everything is revived. There are no other words to use.

I don't quite remember what the principal said at the opening ceremony. Anyway, based on past experience, most of the content is just listening to it.

However, the journey back to the classroom after the meeting left a deep impression on me.More than 3000 people in the school need to go up the four stairs separately. The narrow stairs are crowded with people, and they can't see the steps under their feet. They go up completely by feeling.If you look back, you will find that there is a mass of blackness behind your head, as if it is about to surge up and drown you.

I just glanced at it for a moment, and my calves started shaking.Good guy, if you step on it accidentally, you will be stepped on by the people behind you in an instant, and you won't even be able to get up.

Ning Ran was walking in front of me, but I suddenly slowed her pace, grabbed my wrist and pulled it forward, and quickly turned her head to say hello: "Don't be dazed, follow me quickly. Don't look behind, stare at me. Just go ahead."

"Oh." She was still holding the wrist of my left hand, and the index finger and thumb of my right hand pinched a little of the back of her clothes, and followed like a puppet.

Her back looked very thin, and the T-shirt covering her body looked a little empty, but it was unexpectedly firm and reliable.

I feel that even if I keep my eyes closed, she can lead me up without any injuries.But I dare not do this. If she finds out, she will definitely criticize me for not having any safety awareness.

Teacher Rong, the head teacher, was as easy to talk as I thought. After returning to the classroom and sitting down, she didn’t make any long speeches. She just briefly introduced the situation in the class, and then told us that the school had arranged three days of preschool education. Participated, and found a few boys to go to the library to pick up teaching materials.

The morning passed quickly, and each of us received a large stack of brand-new textbooks, which were so heavy that we couldn't see our toes when we walked in our arms.

Fortunately, I go to school by bike, so I don’t have to squeeze the bus with a heavy schoolbag like when I was a child.

We didn’t do anything else during the summer vacation before the start of school. Every day, we learned to ride bicycles downstairs in the community, in order to facilitate commuting to and from school in the future.

My mother has an old Phoenix. Although it has been around for a long time, its performance is still very good, and the wheels turn whirringly when you step on the pedal.It's just right for us to learn how to drive. After learning, we will buy a new one.

But for some people, when God opens a door for you, he will definitely close a window.Smart as Ning Ran fell on this.No matter how you learn and practice, if you can't grasp the balance well, you will definitely fall if you slide two meters away.

Both A Rui and I can handle the handlebars with one hand, but she is still in its infancy.In the end, I decided not to study in a fit of anger.

Uncle Ning and the others were quite helpless, so they had to ask me to give her a ride.Why is it me?It is said that one afternoon when Uncle Ning and the others came home from get off work, they met A Rui showing off her newly bought bicycle in the community. trouser legs rolled into the wheels.To be on the safe side, I'd rather be on the safe side.

But it's not easy to be a coachman.I am the one who shields me from the wind and rain, and it is thankless.

"Sit back a little bit." Just after pushing the bike from the shed and riding for ten meters, Ning Ran called out from behind.

"What are you doing?" I looked back distractedly, and obediently moved my butt back.

Suddenly something pushed up from behind, against the middle of my spine.If I guessed correctly, it should be Ning Ran's head.The bones of the two skinny people pressed against each other made me a little uncomfortable, I subconsciously twisted twice, and immediately heard Ning Ran shout in a low voice.

"Don't move! Sit up straight and protect me from the sun, my eyes are almost sunburned."

Hey, co-author, she still knows the sun is shining, didn't you see that we cyclists have to half-squint to see the road clearly?Before I could say anything, she muttered again.

"I still hold so many books for you, you help me cover the sun, this is called reciprocity, understand?"

Okay, okay, I admit it.

Non-motorized lanes have never been spacious. If several cars are driving side by side, the handlebars can easily hang together and block the way of others.So A Rui and Qiu Zicheng rode in front, and I drove Ning Ran to follow.

I don't know what they said again, and they started fighting on the road again while riding, and the car turned crookedly.

I was afraid of bumping into them, so I rode slowly all the way ten meters away.

Ning Ran didn't make a sound after a long time, I thought she was already sleepy, and I planned to wake her up, but she moved herself and started calling me.

"Shu Yu."

"Huh?" I pricked up my ears.

"Your clothes smell like milk." She still leaned her head on my back.

I giggled, "I'm lactose intolerant and can't drink milk, it's not like you don't know."

She tapped me lightly on the forehead and smiled behind my back.

"You brat."
