Independence Day Study Plan
Chapter 2 is coming later.
Xuan Fangling turned to look at him and nodded: "After school? Mom will cook you noodles?"
Xie Cheng looked at her carefully and felt that she had lost a lot of weight within a few days, so he shook his head: "I made it myself, have you eaten it?"
"Eat." Xuan Fangling smiled and patted him on the back lightly.
Xie Cheng responded and stood still.
Uncle Xie looked at him, then turned to Xuan Fangling: "Then I'll go to the shop first, and I'll talk when I have something to do."
Xuan Fangling agreed.
After Uncle Xie left, Xie Cheng called: "Mom."
"It's okay." Xuan Fangling smiled reassuringly, "Fortunately, your Aunt Lan is with me, and your brother has another idea, otherwise Mom really has no choice."
Xie Cheng didn't know what to say, so he just looked at her silently.
Xuan Fangling stopped looking at him, turned around and walked out of the main room, and said to herself, "Mom will cook noodles for you, eat well and go to school, and no matter how high or far you fly, don't forget the noodles at home." What is the taste."
Xie Cheng stood there, rubbing the bridge of his nose.
When Zhou Yu arrived at the billiard room, Aunt Lan had already cooked the noodles, just like usual.
"Oh my beauty, you are finally back!" Zhou Daoyu rushed over with open arms, and when he got close, he picked up the noodles on the table.
"Brat!" Aunt Lan slapped him on the back of the head.
Zhou Jiangyu said while eating: "Tell you, there will be a monthly exam this week. Don't blame me if you don't do well in the exam. First, do a self-examination. You did it."
Aunt Lan raised her hand and wanted to hit him, so he hurriedly dodged to the side.
"It's time to eat your noodles!" Aunt Lan shouted loudly, "I'll be hungry when I spill it all!"
Zhou Daoyu sat behind the counter with a bowl in his hand, and looked at her.
Aunt Lan asked: "How are you doing these days? Did you write your homework well? Did you eat well? Did you pile up the changed school uniform and dirty socks for me? Did you go to the game hall?"
"I won't answer any questions that don't trust me!" Zhou said loudly, and when he turned around and saw that Aunt Lan was going to get angry, he hurriedly said, "Do you not trust me or Xie Cheng?"
"That's right." Aunt Lan said, and then asked in a low voice, "How is Xiao Cheng these days?"
Zhou said with a frown: "What else can I do? On the surface, I am stubborn and don't say anything, but in my heart I am worried to death."
Aunt Lan sighed: "What are you talking about? Your Aunt Ling's family is really suffering. Everyone is suffering."
"That's why God arranged for us to be their neighbors." Zhou Jiangyu said, "It's great to be able to help out, isn't it?"
Aunt Lan was amused by him, and after a while she suddenly raised her hand heavily, but it touched his head lightly, and whispered: "Yu'er, your mother said you didn't answer the phone call two days ago? "
"I didn't hear that, so I went out without my phone." Zhou said casually, and then pushed the bowl on the table, wiped his mouth with a tissue, "It's over."
He opened the cabinet casually, took out his exclusive roller skates, walked to the side to put them on, and then swished them to the middle of the pool table: "Your billiard club waiter is less than already at work, less time is more expensive, don't say more, say more." I can't hear you at all!"
Aunt Lan looked at him dumbfounded, and finally shook her head.
The autumn in Luohua Town is very long, unlike Xirong, it seems to be a bridge between summer and winter.
The feeling of autumn is getting deeper, after sleeping together that night, Xie Cheng and Zhou Daoyu have no time to spend alone.
Although we are together for more than ten hours every day, there are people coming and going around me, shoulder to shoulder like brothers, only walking on the path where no one is after school, or in the name of asking wrong questions at night Stay in Xie Cheng's room for a while.
It is already a joy to touch each other once in a while.
Xie Chengzhen made a new study schedule, which subject to do first and which subject to do next, whether to preview or review first, sort out wrong questions first or write new questions first, all are clearly arranged, and even according to the daily class situation Feel free to adjust.
The most terrible thing is that he knows Zhou Yu's study situation like the palm of his hand, and every time the papers are handed out after the monthly exam, the precautions on the sheet are crossed out and added.
Sometimes Zhou Shuoyu went to play games, and Xie Cheng didn't ask much when he came back, but would just remind him: "If your grades drop, it must be my fault."
Zhou said that there was no way to complain, and the two had a few violent fights.
Just arguing and secretly thinking about it, most of the semester passed by in a flash, and the final exam was ostentatious at the end of the year.
Then came the 23th day of the twelfth lunar month, when the first grader received his report card, Zhou Yu changed from the 13rd in the class when he entered school to the [-]th.
The two went from the school to the billiards room, from the billiards room to the studio, and from the studio back to Xuanjia Lane. Zhou Yu was excited all the way, and finally asked Xie Cheng at the door of the house: "Is there any reward?"
Xie Cheng asked, "What do you want?"
Zhou said with a triumphant smile: "You."
☆, games
Xie Cheng blurted out: "Why?"
After these words, the two of them stopped suddenly and looked at each other quietly for a while, Zhou Shuoyu's ears turned red visibly.
He turned his head and wanted to leave, but suddenly found that the doors of both courtyards were closed.
Escaping must be impossible, so Zhou Daoyu had no choice but to stay where he was, trying to maintain his composure, and pretended to be old-fashioned: "Xie Cheng, we are underage, although I really want to talk about this problem, but There's still a little bit of that."
Xie Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and after realizing it belatedly, his face turned red.
After two seconds, he turned his back to Zhou Daoyu, flicked through his schoolbag for keys, and asked a little pretentiously, "Let's change the water for the fish together?"
Zhou Shuoyu rubbed his earlobe, and hesitated behind his back.
After entering the yard, I moved out the fish tank and the large aluminum basin for changing the water. The embarrassment was finally dissipated by the sun.
The two looked at each other across the fish tank, and couldn't help laughing for a while.
After laughing for a long time, Zhou Shuyu said, "Okay, okay, then I'll change it, and you play games with me tonight."
Xie Cheng was silent for a moment, keenly aware of his meaning, and asked: "Is your dad coming to pick you up tomorrow?"
Zhou Shuoyu glanced at him, then lowered his head to look at the fish, and finally said, "I'll be back after the Chinese New Year."
"Xi Rong is so good, it's fine if you don't come back." Xie Cheng said.
Zhou Shuoyu frowned: "Hey, Xie! Can you fucking tell me again?"
Xie Cheng couldn't help laughing again, and finally said: "Stay with grandpa well."
Zhou Shuoyu curled his lips and said "hmm".
The sun was shining at noon, but the water was still piercing, but Xie Cheng seemed not afraid of the cold. After speaking, he plunged his hand straight into the water where the fish had been fished.
The sun refracted, sparkling in the hand.
"You can fold a rainbow with a mirror," he said to himself.
Zhou said: "Are you stupid? Are you not cold?"
"It's okay." Xie Cheng said.
Zhou Daoyu looked at him for a moment, then put his hand into the water.
The water in the basin had been exposed to the sun for a long time, and the upper layer was slightly warm, but it was still unbearably icy below.
Zhou Daoyu looked up at Xie Cheng, only seeing his drooping eyelashes.
After a pause, he stretched out his hand to hold him, Xie Cheng raised his eyes, and there was a stalemate for a moment, his two knuckle hands intertwined under the water.
"Wait for me." Zhou said softly.
Xie Cheng smiled: "Don't be afraid, there is still a long way to go before growing up."
After dinner, Zhou Daoyu came to the house, saying that he wanted to celebrate his good grades in the exam, he said hello to Xuan Fangling, and was about to hand over the thank you.
When Xuan Mai heard that he wanted to follow, Zhou Yu said, "Maizi, I'm going to play games with your second brother."
"I want to fight too!" Xuan Mai said.
Zhou talked about Yu Yizheng's words: "Children, you must protect your eyes! You see, your second brother and I are both in high school and still not short-sighted."
Xuan Mai crossed his hips: "Hmph! You just don't want to take me with you!"
Xie Cheng turned his head to look at Zhou Shuyu, before he could speak, Xuan Fangling smiled: "Come here, Maizi, help me roll some wool, knit a sweater for you, and let the two elder brothers play by themselves."
Xuan Mai didn't really have to go at first, but upon hearing this, he made a face at the two of them, turned around and ran into the main room.
"Brother Zhou will bring you delicious food when he comes back from Xirong!" Zhou Jiangyu said loudly.
Xuan Mai poked his head out from the door, blinking: "Can I have chocolate?"
Zhou Shuoyu squinted his eyes with a smile: "Okay! Anything you want for wheat is fine!"
Xuan Mai entered the room with a smile, Xie Cheng said: "Mom, then did I sleep with Zhou Taoyu tonight?"
Xuan Fangling responded casually, and entered the room with the wool that had just been dried after being unpacked and washed.
Zhou said that Yu Chongxiecheng blinked, pinched the back of his neck, and the two walked towards the diagonally opposite door together.
After going in and saying hello to Aunt Lan, Zhou Daoyu threw two thick cushions in front of the TV and took out the game disc: "What are you playing?"
"Legend of Shadows." Xie Cheng sat down cross-legged.
Zhou Shuoyu frowned: "Why is it this again? Can you change it?"
Aunt Lan nestled in the corner of the sofa, with a blanket on her lap, holding a novel in her hand, without raising her head, she said, "Xiaocheng can play whatever she likes, and you want to talk too much?"
Xie Cheng laughed haha.
Zhou Daoyu pulled out the disc and got up, holding the controller while muttering: "All right, all right, let the ninja save your princess. This princess is so stupid, she will be captured every time, and every time she is captured, the ninja will die The effect is the same once, if you finish it with difficulty, she will still have to be captured, and if you are captured, the ninja will still have to die, there is no way to finish the fight."
Xie Cheng and Aunt Lan were amused, so they didn't answer him.
There are two game controllers plugged into the VCD, but there is no way to play "Legend of Shadows" together, so one can only be connected to the other when one dies.
Zhou Shuyu didn't understand why Xie Cheng liked this game, so he asked again: "Can't you choose two people to play together? Do you understand fighting side by side? What about your spirit of cooperation, classmate Xie Cheng?"
Xie Cheng smiled while operating, and finally said seriously: "If I die, you go up, and if you die, I go up. Isn't it also two people playing together? The relay is also fighting side by side. Isn't 4×100 meters a cooperation? They are also one by one here."
"I can't say it to you," Zhou Shuoyu curled his lips in disdain, "Anyway, you always have crooked reasons."
Aunt Lan smiled: "Oh, Zhou Yu'er, don't you talk a lot? There are times when you have nothing to say? If you want to read more, you won't be blocked by Xiaocheng."
Zhou Shuoyu hummed: "What does this have to do with reading? Can't you make me happy tonight? Tell me about reading!"
Aunt Lan glanced at him: "You are a student, so you should remember to study at all times. What do you want to do if you don't study?"
Zhou said angrily: "Zhao Xinlan! I'm leaving tomorrow!"
Aunt Lan read the novel: "It's not like I won't come back."
"I want to run away from home! Run away from home!" Zhou said loudly.
Aunt Lan laughed so hard that the book in her hand was shaking: "Go, I'll see where you go."
Xie Cheng interrupted the quarrel between the aunt and nephew at the right time: "Then you choose one, and I will fight with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, "gameover" just happened to appear on the screen.
Zhou Yu heard the words and immediately returned to the main interface, pressed one side from top to bottom, and said, "Come, come one by one."
"Come on." Xie Cheng said.
Aunt Lan stretched her waist, lifted the blanket and sat up: "You two don't play too late, your father will be here at noon tomorrow."
Zhou Daoyu looked at the screen and responded repeatedly.
Aunt Lan picked up the blanket, approached and covered the two knees.
"Thank you, Aunt Lan." Xie Cheng said with a smile.
Aunt Lan patted his head: "I washed and went to sleep."
A kind of game round again, playing until late at night, playing back and forth or returning to the original "Legend of Shadows".
At the beginning of the game, the evil ninja kidnapped the princess. The screen was blue and green with a faint light. Xie Cheng, who had been looking at the front seriously, suddenly turned his head.
He leaned close to Zhou Shuoyu's ear and said softly, "Princess, wait for me to save you."
The heat of Xie Cheng's words hit Zhou Shuoyu's ears. Zhou Shuoyu just felt that his whole body was electrified, and he didn't know how to react. Xie Cheng had already started playing games.
He turned his head to look at his side face, lost his voice for a moment, rubbed his ears after a while, pretended to be angry and retorted in a low voice: "You are the princess!"
The ninja "Shadow" was galloping forward for his beloved princess, Xie Cheng stared at the screen with the corner of his mouth twitching.
Seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock, Zhou Daoyu took over the opening game again, and Xie Cheng stretched his waist: "I'm sleepy."
Zhou said casually, "You take a shower first, and the pajamas are on the bed."
Xie Cheng nodded, watched him for a while before getting up to get his pajamas to wash.
When Zhou Yu entered the room, Xie Cheng had already shrunk into the quilt. He rummaged through his clothes and asked, "Is the quilt cool?"
Xie Cheng pursed his lips into a line, and told him the answer with gestures before saying, "It's very cold."
"That's great," Zhou Daoyu smiled happily, "Help me warm up."
Xie Cheng: "Get out!"
Zhou Daoyu laughed to himself for a long time, went to the end of the bed and sat down, reached in and touched it, but before Xie Cheng could move, he grabbed his ankle.
"Take your bath!" Xie Cheng thought he was coming to tickle his itch, so he kicked him immediately.
"Did you use all your strength to deal with me?" Zhou Daoyu let go of his hands, followed by half of his body pressing on him, firmly pressing his legs.
Without waiting for Xie Cheng to resist again, he reached in with both hands, covered his feet in his hands at once, and rubbed them vigorously.
Xie Cheng was taken aback and forgot to move.
Zhou Daoyu pinched his feet up and down, and asked very naturally: "Are my palms warm?"
It took a while for Xie Cheng to nod his head: "It's hot."
Zhou said with a smile, he quickly scratched the sole of his foot, bounced it away before he kicked over, and went out of the room to take a shower.
Xie Cheng withdrew his foot, stared blankly at the door, and blinked for a long time.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhou Yu returned to the room after taking a shower, but the lights were already turned off.
"Xie Cheng, I'm really going to beat you! Take revenge on me, right?" He closed the door with his hand back, and reached out to fumble on the wall next to the door to turn on the light.
However, before his hand touched the switch, his whole body was suddenly pushed vigorously.
This pounce was caught off guard, Zhou Daoyu had no time to react, and was suddenly pressed against the wall. At the same time, a hand was placed on the back of his head, so he didn't hit the wall.
Xie Cheng leaned over and raised his head, and in a daze, he felt the warmth on his lips.
Zhou Shuoyu took a tight breath and hugged him back. Xie Cheng put his hand on his shoulder, wrapped it around his neck for a while, and kissed him silently and passionately.
The two entangled and retreated to the bed, because they didn't want to leave each other's arms, they struggled for a long time before being wrapped in the quilt.
"Zhou Daoyu," Xie Cheng lay down in front of Zhou Daoyu, and whispered, "You will miss me every day when you go to Xirong, right?"
These words seemed to be discussing, and the tone was calm, but in fact, they carried undeniable strength, which sounded no different from nostalgia to Zhou Yu's ears.
"Okay," Zhou Shuoyu said in a hoarse voice, "always thinking about it, and you want to too."
Xie Cheng nodded: "Yes." After a pause, he said: "But you also have to read your homework carefully."
Zhou Daoyu: "..." After a while, he let out an annoyed "No".
From receiving the report card, the winter vacation is really here.
Zhou Taoyu returned to Xirong, there was nothing in the first two days, but on the third day, Xie Cheng really felt that there was a lot of emptiness around him.
On the fourth day of the holiday, Xie Cheng didn't want to do homework and was really bored, so he went to Taoshi to pick up Xuan Mai in the afternoon.
The brother and sister walked down the street and met an acquaintance on the road. They used to have a very good relationship with Geng Chuan in a vocational high school. Geng Chuan always called him Yangzi.
The three of them collided head-on, and Xie Cheng called out, "Brother Yang."
Yangzi was stunned for a moment, and smiled: "Oh, this is Xiaocheng? I wouldn't have recognized you if you hadn't called me, why did you grow taller than me all of a sudden."
Xie Cheng also smiled: "Because I haven't seen you for a long time."
Yangzi looked at the siblings: "Go home?"
"Yes." Xie Cheng responded, "Brother Yang, are we going back?"
Yang Zi nodded, Xie Cheng was about to step up when he suddenly asked, "Has your brother come home?"
Xuanmai interface: "Not yet."
Yangzi hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Have you visited Dachuan's grandma?"
"No." Xie Cheng was a little surprised, "What's wrong with grandma? Is she sick?"
"No, it's tough," Yangzi asked after being silent for two seconds, "Did Geng Chuan tell your brother?"
"What?" Xie Cheng asked.
Yangzi gave a "fuck" and said, "Okawa is so fucking..."
After a pause, he caught a glimpse of Xuan Mai's innocent face from the corner of his eye, swallowing the unfinished swear words, and said, "Tell your brother, go see grandma if you have nothing to do."
Xie Cheng was puzzled: "What's the matter, Brother Yang?"
☆, SMS
Yangzi was silent for a while, then said, "Do you know nothing, or only a little?"
Xie Cheng's heart tightened: "More than one thing?"
Xuan Mai grabbed Xie Cheng's arm and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with brother Geng Chuan?"
Yangzi looked distressed, and said for a while, as if he was going to die: "If Dachuan asks me in the future, don't tell me what I said, anyway, you just listen to it in your heart."
Xie Cheng looked down at Xuan Mai, then nodded in a daze.
"When he was leaving as a soldier, his parents divorced," Yangzi said. "He was very sad when he left, so we didn't let us see him off."
Xie Cheng was surprised: "What?"
Geng's father, Geng's mother, and Xie Cheng are not very familiar with each other, but they have met Xuanhe and Geng Chuan's house several times before. They are both gentle and gentle people, and they can't imagine any conflicts at all.
Yangzi sighed: "That boy Dachuan is like this, he never talks about it. I only found out after listening to others. It's not a big deal, but let's fuck it. After divorce Just left, not long before he left as a soldier, I reckon he should be quite concerned about this."
Xie Cheng suddenly remembered the day when he sent the recruits away. At that time, only Geng's father was there to see them off. Geng Chuan clearly said that he was afraid that Geng's mother would be sad.
He was speechless for a while, and finally whispered: "I haven't heard at all..."
Yangzi waved his hand knowingly: "Isn't their house going to build a landscape avenue? They have been talking about demolition. The new house was built earlier, and I just moved in two days ago. Everything is fine, but the house is a little far away. Uncle has passed, but grandma is unwilling to leave, she lives alone in the old house, I just went to see it yesterday.”
Xie Cheng was startled.
Yangzi went on to say, "Dachuan was originally brought up by his grandma, and now grandma lives alone. If he knew about it outside, he might be worried."
After finishing talking, Yangzi saw that Xie Cheng was a little absent-minded, and patted him on the shoulder: "Since Dachuan has been the best with your brother, let your brother go to see grandma when he has time, Dachuan must be at ease."
Xie Cheng frowned seriously: "Thank you Brother Yang, I'm going to see grandma now!"
"What are you panicking about?" Yangzi couldn't help laughing, "Grandma isn't leaving yet."
Xie Cheng forced a smile.
The two sides said goodbye, Xie Cheng didn't speak when they walked home, Xuan Mai touched his arm and said: "Second brother, don't think about it, I will go to see grandma with you tomorrow, and we will go again when brother comes back."
Xie Cheng smiled and said "OK".
He was thinking about the money Geng Chuan gave him, and he didn't know if it had something to do with his parents' divorce, but he also knew that if he asked Geng Chuan directly, he would definitely not be able to find out.
Then he remembered that Xuanhe didn't know about this, and his family had inherited a lot of love, whether it was Aunt Lan's or Geng Chuan's, it was almost impossible to repay one end.
In the end, he inevitably thought of Xie Jun, and Xie Cheng was overwhelmed by anger again.
Finally, they went back to Xuanjia Lane, and they heard voices inside the door, the siblings looked at each other, Xuan Mai's eyes lit up, and he ran in.
"Brother!" She roared, rushed over and jumped high, only to be caught by Xuan He.
Xie Cheng followed behind and shouted in surprise: "Brother! Why did you come back today?"
Xuan He smiled: "It's a temporary appointment. I thought I had something to do, but I finished it ahead of time."
Xuan Fangling was also very happy: "I'll cook."
"Let me do it." Xuan He said immediately.
Xuan Fangling turned and went into the kitchen: "I do what I do, you are tired from the car."
Xuan He smiled, turned his head to look at Xie Cheng carefully, and gestured on his head in surprise: "Eh? Taller than me?"
"Yes!" Xie Chengyang raised his chin.
Xuan Mai slid off Xuan He's body, tiptoed and said, "Look at me, look at me! I've grown taller too!"
"Grow taller, taller than the sky!" Xuan He rubbed her face.
Xuan Mai spoke quickly, pulled Xuan He and said, "Brother, let's go see grandma tomorrow!"
Xuan He: "Miss grandma? I'll go in two days."
"No, no, it's not our grandma," Xuan Mai said, "It's brother Geng Chuan's grandma."
Xuan He was startled, and looked at Xie Cheng.
Xie Cheng hurriedly said: "It's okay, brother, grandma is tough, it's brother Geng Chuan and his family now...no one takes care of grandma."
The two brothers looked at Xuan Mai together. Xuan Mai knew that they were going to talk, so he went into the kitchen to help, while Xie Cheng told Xuan He what happened outside.
After speaking, there was a relative silence for a long time, and at the end Xuan He asked: "He wrote so many letters to you, didn't he mention these?"
Xie Cheng turned his head and glanced at the kitchen, and said in a low voice: "The letter is not written to me either, most of the time it is a note at best."
Xuan He didn't speak, turned and entered the house.
Xie Cheng sighed inwardly, and followed in.
Xuan He walked to the table, took out something from his schoolbag, and handed it to Xie Cheng.
"Huh?" Xie Cheng took it hesitantly, "Why did you buy me a mobile phone?"
"The card is inserted for you," Xuan He put a hand on the back of his neck, "In case you can't find me, my aunt is in the shop all day, and it's inconvenient if you don't have a phone."
Xie Cheng nodded: "Brother, tomorrow..."
"Let's go see grandma tomorrow." Xuan He said.
It’s too cold to go out for a walk or play basketball in winter. Zhou Yu felt uncomfortable if he didn’t move. On the first day he came here, he muttered that he wanted to play table tennis, but he didn’t want to go to the basement. Who would have thought that Zhou Guyan had someone clean up the corner of the living room the next day? Open, set up a ping-pong table.
Zhou's family had dinner earlier, and the people from Xie Cheng's family had just arrived at the table, and the grandpa and grandson had been playing table tennis for a while.
The lights under the porch in the garden were turned on, the dark blue in the sky was getting darker, and the stars were twinkling.
He slapped Zhou Gu'an, waved his hand, put down the racket, walked to the sofa and leaned against him: "Grandpa, rest for a while."
Now that the grandfather and grandson have a perfect understanding, Zhou Daoyu began to recover his nature. He heard this sentence, and while playing with the racket in front of him, he joked: "Grandpa can't."
Zhou Guyan heard the words and said: "When I was young, my physique was not inferior to yours. When you reach your grandfather's age, you may not be as good as your grandfather."
"Hey, then I'll work harder, and I'll let you have a look at it when the time comes!" Zhou Yu said.
Zhou Guyan: "When you were the same age as me, grandpa was all loess."
Zhou Shuoyu thought for a while: "Then I don't care, I think of what you are watching."
Zhou Guyan was slightly taken aback, then smiled.
The ball in his hand didn't drop. After a while, Zhou said proudly: "I found out that I can play ball, grandpa! All kinds of balls, basketball, football, table tennis, badminton, hehe, and billiards."
When he said this, Zhou Guyan asked: "I heard that your aunt opened a billiard room?"
"That's right," Zhou said, "That's why I have been able to play since I was a child."
Zhou Guyan: "Is the billiards room messy?"
"It's okay," Zhou said honestly, "Luohua itself is actually quite chaotic. Occasionally, people will fight in the billiard room, but nothing serious will happen."
Zhou Guyan was silent for a moment, and asked, "Yu Yu, grandpa asks you a question."
"Yeah." Zhou Daoyu received the ball and turned to look at him.
Zhou Guyan asked: "In the future, do you want to live with your father or your mother?"
Zhou said with a smile: "They finally decided to divorce? Why did you ask this, Grandpa? Why didn't they ask themselves?"
Zhou Guyan: "I just asked casually."
Zhou Shuoyu threw away the racket, sat next to him, stretched his long legs forward casually, and said, "I don't want anyone, I want to live with my aunt in Luohua."
"Then you can take my aunt over and live with grandpa in the future." Zhou Guyan said again.
Zhou Shuoyu shook his head: "Grandpa, you asked me last time, my aunt won't come."
Zhou Guyan asked again: "Do you think Grandpa's house is okay? If you like it, you think this house is okay, so I will leave it to you in the future, okay?"
"It's good here," Zhou said, "but it's not because the house is good, it's because you are good here. Do you mean after you die?"
He asked this question too directly, but Zhou Guyan didn't care at all, instead he smiled: "Yes."
Zhou Shuoyu shrugged: "Then I still won't come, you are not here anymore, what should I do here?"
Zhou Guyan laughed again, this time it was very hearty.
After sitting in silence for a few minutes, Zhou Daoyu was still thinking about juggling the ball, when the cell phone on the table rang suddenly.
He got up and grabbed his mobile phone, nestled into the single sofa next to him, opened it and saw a message: "Hello, dear user, I regret to inform you that your number is in arrears. In order not to affect your normal Please recharge as soon as possible.”
Zhou Daoyu sneered: "Little liar, you have tricked me..."
He stopped abruptly in the middle of speaking, and then unconsciously raised his eyebrows. The three words "little liar" that passed by his mouth just now suddenly changed their taste, and it was almost itchy to chew.
With a strong intuition, Zhou Yu returned the message: "Thank you, little liar?"
After half a minute, the text message from the other end came again: "Dear user, I regret to inform you that the power you deposited for Xie Cheng four days ago is about to run out. In order not to affect your normal use, please Connect it to the socket as soon as possible. Confirm charging, please reply."
Zhou Daoyu laughed for a long time, then turned around and said, "Resume."
Two text messages came in succession:
"Neuropathy!"
"Confirm the charging, please enter the password."
Zhou Shuoyu curled his lips, his heart was bubbling with joy, but he still slandered who was crazy, and quickly pressed the key with two thumbs: "What's the password?"
There was no reply for a long time, so he typed again: "Is it 'Zhou Shuoyu likes Xie Cheng'? Or "Xie Cheng likes Zhou Shuoyu"? Do you want to type it ten times? A hundred times?"
Xie Cheng: "The password is the correct answer to the ten physical papers."
Zhou said: "..."
Although he was choked for a while, Zhou Yu's good mood was like the "higher and higher" fireworks during the Chinese New Year, one layer brighter after another.
Holding his mobile phone, he couldn't help laughing, leaned back on the sofa, glanced out of the corner of his eye when his head rested on it, and found that Zhou Guyan had been looking at him, so he restrained himself a little.
"Less than the girl you like?" Zhou Guyan asked.
Zhou Shuyu replied a little embarrassedly: "Grandpa, he is the one I like."
Zhou Guyan asked, "What kind of child is he?"
Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "If you see him, you will definitely like him very much!"
Zhou Guan said softly: "Then I will bring her to see me in the future."
Zhou Yu nodded heavily, and added after a long while: "I won't affect my studies."
Zhou Guyan smiled: "Grandpa knows."
The two texted back and forth, and the night passed quickly.
Before going to bed, Xie Cheng took a shower and lay on the bed, flipped out Zhou Yu's text messages one by one, and read them back and forth.
Just as she was nestling in the quilt and raised her mouth, someone suddenly knocked on the door lightly.
Xie Cheng immediately stuffed the phone under the pillow and said, "Brother? The door is not locked."
Xuan He pushed open the door and came in.
Xie Cheng sat up: "brother, what's the matter?"
Xuanhe walked to the bedside: "I can't sleep, I have something to ask you."
Xie Cheng returned to his usual expressionless face, he got up and gave way inward, leaving half of the bed to Xuan He.
The two brothers leaned side by side on the head of the bed, Xie Cheng quietly waited for Xuan He to speak, but Xuan He kept silent.
While he was silent, the phone under the pillow vibrated twice.
Xie Cheng froze and didn't move.
Xuan He asked: "Don't you want to see who sent the message?"
Xie Cheng's heart was beating fast, but his face remained calm: "Let's talk to Zhou, I just told him that this is my number."
Xuan He nodded and stopped talking.
After a long time, Xie Cheng calmed down from the shock just now, and a shivering feeling surged to the tip of his heart.
In the end, he started first and asked, "Brother, do you hate Brother Geng Chuan?"
"I don't hate it." Xuan He said, paused, and repeated softly, "You asked, I don't hate it."
Xie Cheng pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice after two seconds: "Then do you hate homosexuals?"
☆, phone
After being silent for a while, Xuan He said, "Have we discussed this issue before?"
"Really," Xie Cheng looked down at the stripes on the quilt, "I don't remember."
Xuan He nodded.
Xie Cheng grasped the side of the quilt tightly with the hand placed by his side, and asked calmly, "Do you hate it?"
"Other people have other people's lifestyles," Xuan He said, "It's not up to me to say whether I hate homosexuality or heterosexuality."
The clenched hands were released silently, and Xie Cheng let out a "huh".
Xuan He's words were indeed correct, but it was not the answer he wanted, but he couldn't muster up the courage to ask him again.
After a while, he went back to the very beginning: "Brother, you said just now that you wanted to ask me something. What do you want to ask?"
Xuan He: "I don't want to ask now."
Xie Cheng couldn't help but smiled: "Brother, you are acting weird now."
"Really?" Xuan He also laughed, lifted the quilt and lay down, "Go to sleep."
The lights have been turned off for a long time, and there is a strong wind outside again.
The whining sound sounded like a monster when I was a child, but now it sounds like a heavy barrier, which further accentuates the silence in the house that belongs to the cold winter months.
In this comfortable silence, Xie Cheng suddenly whispered: "Brother, Brother Geng Chuan really likes you very much."
Xuan He may have fallen asleep, or Xie Cheng's voice was drowned out by the wind, but no one responded.
Xie Cheng turned over and lay on his side with his back to Xuan He. He reached under the pillow with his right hand to hold the phone. After thinking for a while, he still didn't take it out and click on it.
The next day, the three brothers and sisters went to Geng Chuan's house together.
When we went there, the sun was just right, Xuan He pushed open the half-closed courtyard door familiarly, Xie Cheng stood behind him, and saw the old man basking in the sun.
"Grandma." Xuan He shouted.
Grandma turned her head, looked at Xuan He carefully, and stood up: "Is it Xiaohe?"
"Grandma." Xuan He yelled again, and hurriedly walked forward with a smile, wanting her to sit down.
Grandma laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes: "Oh, it's Xiaohe! How long has it been since you've been to grandma's house? Haven't you been here since Xiaochuan left? Are you in college now?"
"Ah, yes." Xuan He responded, "Before I was busy in my third year of high school, and then Geng Chuan left again, so I haven't come to see you."
Xie Cheng and Xuan Mai also smiled and greeted each other. Grandma responded with a smile, and said, "Okay, Xiaohe has gone to college, and my siblings are all grown up."
Xuan He was fine all the time, and only turned his head when his grandma was pulling Xuan Mai to talk. He glanced at a blooming wintersweet in the yard, and finally showed a bit of unspeakable sadness on his face.
fleeting.
Standing by the side, Xie Cheng could see clearly, and couldn't bear it immediately.
The winter is long, and the winter without Zhou Yu is even more long.
After sending text messages for several days in a row, one morning the phone suddenly quieted down, and Xie Cheng found out that he was in arrears.
But this day is the birthday of the Stove King Bodhisattva, the family is busy fighting the dust, Xuan Fangling is still guarding the shop, and the three brothers and sisters have to clean up the house inside and out, not letting go of any corners, Xie Cheng also I didn't have time to go to the street to pay the phone bill.
Even after sending many messages, no one responded. Zhou Guan was sleeping at noon, and Zhou Daoyu sat on the porch and made a phone call, only to find out that Xie Cheng had shut down.
Basking in the sun alone in the garden, Zhou Shuoyu opened his inbox and read through the full messages in it from beginning to end.
In fact, the phone was almost out of text messages, but he didn't want to delete any of them.
Bored, Zhou Shuoyu thought about it, and finally said hello to Aunt Sun, and went out by himself.
Although Zhou Gu'an's residential area is in the suburbs, life is very convenient, and he still has everything within a short distance. Xirong has developed rapidly in the past two years, and if he is willing to go a little further, it will not be much different from the city center.
Zhou Yu detoured out of the community and found a nearby business office. He went in and said to recharge the phone bill. As soon as the salesperson entered the number, he immediately said, "I'm sorry, this is a foreign number, so I can't recharge it."
Zhou Shuo was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that
Xie Cheng looked at her carefully and felt that she had lost a lot of weight within a few days, so he shook his head: "I made it myself, have you eaten it?"
"Eat." Xuan Fangling smiled and patted him on the back lightly.
Xie Cheng responded and stood still.
Uncle Xie looked at him, then turned to Xuan Fangling: "Then I'll go to the shop first, and I'll talk when I have something to do."
Xuan Fangling agreed.
After Uncle Xie left, Xie Cheng called: "Mom."
"It's okay." Xuan Fangling smiled reassuringly, "Fortunately, your Aunt Lan is with me, and your brother has another idea, otherwise Mom really has no choice."
Xie Cheng didn't know what to say, so he just looked at her silently.
Xuan Fangling stopped looking at him, turned around and walked out of the main room, and said to herself, "Mom will cook noodles for you, eat well and go to school, and no matter how high or far you fly, don't forget the noodles at home." What is the taste."
Xie Cheng stood there, rubbing the bridge of his nose.
When Zhou Yu arrived at the billiard room, Aunt Lan had already cooked the noodles, just like usual.
"Oh my beauty, you are finally back!" Zhou Daoyu rushed over with open arms, and when he got close, he picked up the noodles on the table.
"Brat!" Aunt Lan slapped him on the back of the head.
Zhou Jiangyu said while eating: "Tell you, there will be a monthly exam this week. Don't blame me if you don't do well in the exam. First, do a self-examination. You did it."
Aunt Lan raised her hand and wanted to hit him, so he hurriedly dodged to the side.
"It's time to eat your noodles!" Aunt Lan shouted loudly, "I'll be hungry when I spill it all!"
Zhou Daoyu sat behind the counter with a bowl in his hand, and looked at her.
Aunt Lan asked: "How are you doing these days? Did you write your homework well? Did you eat well? Did you pile up the changed school uniform and dirty socks for me? Did you go to the game hall?"
"I won't answer any questions that don't trust me!" Zhou said loudly, and when he turned around and saw that Aunt Lan was going to get angry, he hurriedly said, "Do you not trust me or Xie Cheng?"
"That's right." Aunt Lan said, and then asked in a low voice, "How is Xiao Cheng these days?"
Zhou said with a frown: "What else can I do? On the surface, I am stubborn and don't say anything, but in my heart I am worried to death."
Aunt Lan sighed: "What are you talking about? Your Aunt Ling's family is really suffering. Everyone is suffering."
"That's why God arranged for us to be their neighbors." Zhou Jiangyu said, "It's great to be able to help out, isn't it?"
Aunt Lan was amused by him, and after a while she suddenly raised her hand heavily, but it touched his head lightly, and whispered: "Yu'er, your mother said you didn't answer the phone call two days ago? "
"I didn't hear that, so I went out without my phone." Zhou said casually, and then pushed the bowl on the table, wiped his mouth with a tissue, "It's over."
He opened the cabinet casually, took out his exclusive roller skates, walked to the side to put them on, and then swished them to the middle of the pool table: "Your billiard club waiter is less than already at work, less time is more expensive, don't say more, say more." I can't hear you at all!"
Aunt Lan looked at him dumbfounded, and finally shook her head.
The autumn in Luohua Town is very long, unlike Xirong, it seems to be a bridge between summer and winter.
The feeling of autumn is getting deeper, after sleeping together that night, Xie Cheng and Zhou Daoyu have no time to spend alone.
Although we are together for more than ten hours every day, there are people coming and going around me, shoulder to shoulder like brothers, only walking on the path where no one is after school, or in the name of asking wrong questions at night Stay in Xie Cheng's room for a while.
It is already a joy to touch each other once in a while.
Xie Chengzhen made a new study schedule, which subject to do first and which subject to do next, whether to preview or review first, sort out wrong questions first or write new questions first, all are clearly arranged, and even according to the daily class situation Feel free to adjust.
The most terrible thing is that he knows Zhou Yu's study situation like the palm of his hand, and every time the papers are handed out after the monthly exam, the precautions on the sheet are crossed out and added.
Sometimes Zhou Shuoyu went to play games, and Xie Cheng didn't ask much when he came back, but would just remind him: "If your grades drop, it must be my fault."
Zhou said that there was no way to complain, and the two had a few violent fights.
Just arguing and secretly thinking about it, most of the semester passed by in a flash, and the final exam was ostentatious at the end of the year.
Then came the 23th day of the twelfth lunar month, when the first grader received his report card, Zhou Yu changed from the 13rd in the class when he entered school to the [-]th.
The two went from the school to the billiards room, from the billiards room to the studio, and from the studio back to Xuanjia Lane. Zhou Yu was excited all the way, and finally asked Xie Cheng at the door of the house: "Is there any reward?"
Xie Cheng asked, "What do you want?"
Zhou said with a triumphant smile: "You."
☆, games
Xie Cheng blurted out: "Why?"
After these words, the two of them stopped suddenly and looked at each other quietly for a while, Zhou Shuoyu's ears turned red visibly.
He turned his head and wanted to leave, but suddenly found that the doors of both courtyards were closed.
Escaping must be impossible, so Zhou Daoyu had no choice but to stay where he was, trying to maintain his composure, and pretended to be old-fashioned: "Xie Cheng, we are underage, although I really want to talk about this problem, but There's still a little bit of that."
Xie Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and after realizing it belatedly, his face turned red.
After two seconds, he turned his back to Zhou Daoyu, flicked through his schoolbag for keys, and asked a little pretentiously, "Let's change the water for the fish together?"
Zhou Shuoyu rubbed his earlobe, and hesitated behind his back.
After entering the yard, I moved out the fish tank and the large aluminum basin for changing the water. The embarrassment was finally dissipated by the sun.
The two looked at each other across the fish tank, and couldn't help laughing for a while.
After laughing for a long time, Zhou Shuyu said, "Okay, okay, then I'll change it, and you play games with me tonight."
Xie Cheng was silent for a moment, keenly aware of his meaning, and asked: "Is your dad coming to pick you up tomorrow?"
Zhou Shuoyu glanced at him, then lowered his head to look at the fish, and finally said, "I'll be back after the Chinese New Year."
"Xi Rong is so good, it's fine if you don't come back." Xie Cheng said.
Zhou Shuoyu frowned: "Hey, Xie! Can you fucking tell me again?"
Xie Cheng couldn't help laughing again, and finally said: "Stay with grandpa well."
Zhou Shuoyu curled his lips and said "hmm".
The sun was shining at noon, but the water was still piercing, but Xie Cheng seemed not afraid of the cold. After speaking, he plunged his hand straight into the water where the fish had been fished.
The sun refracted, sparkling in the hand.
"You can fold a rainbow with a mirror," he said to himself.
Zhou said: "Are you stupid? Are you not cold?"
"It's okay." Xie Cheng said.
Zhou Daoyu looked at him for a moment, then put his hand into the water.
The water in the basin had been exposed to the sun for a long time, and the upper layer was slightly warm, but it was still unbearably icy below.
Zhou Daoyu looked up at Xie Cheng, only seeing his drooping eyelashes.
After a pause, he stretched out his hand to hold him, Xie Cheng raised his eyes, and there was a stalemate for a moment, his two knuckle hands intertwined under the water.
"Wait for me." Zhou said softly.
Xie Cheng smiled: "Don't be afraid, there is still a long way to go before growing up."
After dinner, Zhou Daoyu came to the house, saying that he wanted to celebrate his good grades in the exam, he said hello to Xuan Fangling, and was about to hand over the thank you.
When Xuan Mai heard that he wanted to follow, Zhou Yu said, "Maizi, I'm going to play games with your second brother."
"I want to fight too!" Xuan Mai said.
Zhou talked about Yu Yizheng's words: "Children, you must protect your eyes! You see, your second brother and I are both in high school and still not short-sighted."
Xuan Mai crossed his hips: "Hmph! You just don't want to take me with you!"
Xie Cheng turned his head to look at Zhou Shuyu, before he could speak, Xuan Fangling smiled: "Come here, Maizi, help me roll some wool, knit a sweater for you, and let the two elder brothers play by themselves."
Xuan Mai didn't really have to go at first, but upon hearing this, he made a face at the two of them, turned around and ran into the main room.
"Brother Zhou will bring you delicious food when he comes back from Xirong!" Zhou Jiangyu said loudly.
Xuan Mai poked his head out from the door, blinking: "Can I have chocolate?"
Zhou Shuoyu squinted his eyes with a smile: "Okay! Anything you want for wheat is fine!"
Xuan Mai entered the room with a smile, Xie Cheng said: "Mom, then did I sleep with Zhou Taoyu tonight?"
Xuan Fangling responded casually, and entered the room with the wool that had just been dried after being unpacked and washed.
Zhou said that Yu Chongxiecheng blinked, pinched the back of his neck, and the two walked towards the diagonally opposite door together.
After going in and saying hello to Aunt Lan, Zhou Daoyu threw two thick cushions in front of the TV and took out the game disc: "What are you playing?"
"Legend of Shadows." Xie Cheng sat down cross-legged.
Zhou Shuoyu frowned: "Why is it this again? Can you change it?"
Aunt Lan nestled in the corner of the sofa, with a blanket on her lap, holding a novel in her hand, without raising her head, she said, "Xiaocheng can play whatever she likes, and you want to talk too much?"
Xie Cheng laughed haha.
Zhou Daoyu pulled out the disc and got up, holding the controller while muttering: "All right, all right, let the ninja save your princess. This princess is so stupid, she will be captured every time, and every time she is captured, the ninja will die The effect is the same once, if you finish it with difficulty, she will still have to be captured, and if you are captured, the ninja will still have to die, there is no way to finish the fight."
Xie Cheng and Aunt Lan were amused, so they didn't answer him.
There are two game controllers plugged into the VCD, but there is no way to play "Legend of Shadows" together, so one can only be connected to the other when one dies.
Zhou Shuyu didn't understand why Xie Cheng liked this game, so he asked again: "Can't you choose two people to play together? Do you understand fighting side by side? What about your spirit of cooperation, classmate Xie Cheng?"
Xie Cheng smiled while operating, and finally said seriously: "If I die, you go up, and if you die, I go up. Isn't it also two people playing together? The relay is also fighting side by side. Isn't 4×100 meters a cooperation? They are also one by one here."
"I can't say it to you," Zhou Shuoyu curled his lips in disdain, "Anyway, you always have crooked reasons."
Aunt Lan smiled: "Oh, Zhou Yu'er, don't you talk a lot? There are times when you have nothing to say? If you want to read more, you won't be blocked by Xiaocheng."
Zhou Shuoyu hummed: "What does this have to do with reading? Can't you make me happy tonight? Tell me about reading!"
Aunt Lan glanced at him: "You are a student, so you should remember to study at all times. What do you want to do if you don't study?"
Zhou said angrily: "Zhao Xinlan! I'm leaving tomorrow!"
Aunt Lan read the novel: "It's not like I won't come back."
"I want to run away from home! Run away from home!" Zhou said loudly.
Aunt Lan laughed so hard that the book in her hand was shaking: "Go, I'll see where you go."
Xie Cheng interrupted the quarrel between the aunt and nephew at the right time: "Then you choose one, and I will fight with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, "gameover" just happened to appear on the screen.
Zhou Yu heard the words and immediately returned to the main interface, pressed one side from top to bottom, and said, "Come, come one by one."
"Come on." Xie Cheng said.
Aunt Lan stretched her waist, lifted the blanket and sat up: "You two don't play too late, your father will be here at noon tomorrow."
Zhou Daoyu looked at the screen and responded repeatedly.
Aunt Lan picked up the blanket, approached and covered the two knees.
"Thank you, Aunt Lan." Xie Cheng said with a smile.
Aunt Lan patted his head: "I washed and went to sleep."
A kind of game round again, playing until late at night, playing back and forth or returning to the original "Legend of Shadows".
At the beginning of the game, the evil ninja kidnapped the princess. The screen was blue and green with a faint light. Xie Cheng, who had been looking at the front seriously, suddenly turned his head.
He leaned close to Zhou Shuoyu's ear and said softly, "Princess, wait for me to save you."
The heat of Xie Cheng's words hit Zhou Shuoyu's ears. Zhou Shuoyu just felt that his whole body was electrified, and he didn't know how to react. Xie Cheng had already started playing games.
He turned his head to look at his side face, lost his voice for a moment, rubbed his ears after a while, pretended to be angry and retorted in a low voice: "You are the princess!"
The ninja "Shadow" was galloping forward for his beloved princess, Xie Cheng stared at the screen with the corner of his mouth twitching.
Seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock, Zhou Daoyu took over the opening game again, and Xie Cheng stretched his waist: "I'm sleepy."
Zhou said casually, "You take a shower first, and the pajamas are on the bed."
Xie Cheng nodded, watched him for a while before getting up to get his pajamas to wash.
When Zhou Yu entered the room, Xie Cheng had already shrunk into the quilt. He rummaged through his clothes and asked, "Is the quilt cool?"
Xie Cheng pursed his lips into a line, and told him the answer with gestures before saying, "It's very cold."
"That's great," Zhou Daoyu smiled happily, "Help me warm up."
Xie Cheng: "Get out!"
Zhou Daoyu laughed to himself for a long time, went to the end of the bed and sat down, reached in and touched it, but before Xie Cheng could move, he grabbed his ankle.
"Take your bath!" Xie Cheng thought he was coming to tickle his itch, so he kicked him immediately.
"Did you use all your strength to deal with me?" Zhou Daoyu let go of his hands, followed by half of his body pressing on him, firmly pressing his legs.
Without waiting for Xie Cheng to resist again, he reached in with both hands, covered his feet in his hands at once, and rubbed them vigorously.
Xie Cheng was taken aback and forgot to move.
Zhou Daoyu pinched his feet up and down, and asked very naturally: "Are my palms warm?"
It took a while for Xie Cheng to nod his head: "It's hot."
Zhou said with a smile, he quickly scratched the sole of his foot, bounced it away before he kicked over, and went out of the room to take a shower.
Xie Cheng withdrew his foot, stared blankly at the door, and blinked for a long time.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhou Yu returned to the room after taking a shower, but the lights were already turned off.
"Xie Cheng, I'm really going to beat you! Take revenge on me, right?" He closed the door with his hand back, and reached out to fumble on the wall next to the door to turn on the light.
However, before his hand touched the switch, his whole body was suddenly pushed vigorously.
This pounce was caught off guard, Zhou Daoyu had no time to react, and was suddenly pressed against the wall. At the same time, a hand was placed on the back of his head, so he didn't hit the wall.
Xie Cheng leaned over and raised his head, and in a daze, he felt the warmth on his lips.
Zhou Shuoyu took a tight breath and hugged him back. Xie Cheng put his hand on his shoulder, wrapped it around his neck for a while, and kissed him silently and passionately.
The two entangled and retreated to the bed, because they didn't want to leave each other's arms, they struggled for a long time before being wrapped in the quilt.
"Zhou Daoyu," Xie Cheng lay down in front of Zhou Daoyu, and whispered, "You will miss me every day when you go to Xirong, right?"
These words seemed to be discussing, and the tone was calm, but in fact, they carried undeniable strength, which sounded no different from nostalgia to Zhou Yu's ears.
"Okay," Zhou Shuoyu said in a hoarse voice, "always thinking about it, and you want to too."
Xie Cheng nodded: "Yes." After a pause, he said: "But you also have to read your homework carefully."
Zhou Daoyu: "..." After a while, he let out an annoyed "No".
From receiving the report card, the winter vacation is really here.
Zhou Taoyu returned to Xirong, there was nothing in the first two days, but on the third day, Xie Cheng really felt that there was a lot of emptiness around him.
On the fourth day of the holiday, Xie Cheng didn't want to do homework and was really bored, so he went to Taoshi to pick up Xuan Mai in the afternoon.
The brother and sister walked down the street and met an acquaintance on the road. They used to have a very good relationship with Geng Chuan in a vocational high school. Geng Chuan always called him Yangzi.
The three of them collided head-on, and Xie Cheng called out, "Brother Yang."
Yangzi was stunned for a moment, and smiled: "Oh, this is Xiaocheng? I wouldn't have recognized you if you hadn't called me, why did you grow taller than me all of a sudden."
Xie Cheng also smiled: "Because I haven't seen you for a long time."
Yangzi looked at the siblings: "Go home?"
"Yes." Xie Cheng responded, "Brother Yang, are we going back?"
Yang Zi nodded, Xie Cheng was about to step up when he suddenly asked, "Has your brother come home?"
Xuanmai interface: "Not yet."
Yangzi hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Have you visited Dachuan's grandma?"
"No." Xie Cheng was a little surprised, "What's wrong with grandma? Is she sick?"
"No, it's tough," Yangzi asked after being silent for two seconds, "Did Geng Chuan tell your brother?"
"What?" Xie Cheng asked.
Yangzi gave a "fuck" and said, "Okawa is so fucking..."
After a pause, he caught a glimpse of Xuan Mai's innocent face from the corner of his eye, swallowing the unfinished swear words, and said, "Tell your brother, go see grandma if you have nothing to do."
Xie Cheng was puzzled: "What's the matter, Brother Yang?"
☆, SMS
Yangzi was silent for a while, then said, "Do you know nothing, or only a little?"
Xie Cheng's heart tightened: "More than one thing?"
Xuan Mai grabbed Xie Cheng's arm and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with brother Geng Chuan?"
Yangzi looked distressed, and said for a while, as if he was going to die: "If Dachuan asks me in the future, don't tell me what I said, anyway, you just listen to it in your heart."
Xie Cheng looked down at Xuan Mai, then nodded in a daze.
"When he was leaving as a soldier, his parents divorced," Yangzi said. "He was very sad when he left, so we didn't let us see him off."
Xie Cheng was surprised: "What?"
Geng's father, Geng's mother, and Xie Cheng are not very familiar with each other, but they have met Xuanhe and Geng Chuan's house several times before. They are both gentle and gentle people, and they can't imagine any conflicts at all.
Yangzi sighed: "That boy Dachuan is like this, he never talks about it. I only found out after listening to others. It's not a big deal, but let's fuck it. After divorce Just left, not long before he left as a soldier, I reckon he should be quite concerned about this."
Xie Cheng suddenly remembered the day when he sent the recruits away. At that time, only Geng's father was there to see them off. Geng Chuan clearly said that he was afraid that Geng's mother would be sad.
He was speechless for a while, and finally whispered: "I haven't heard at all..."
Yangzi waved his hand knowingly: "Isn't their house going to build a landscape avenue? They have been talking about demolition. The new house was built earlier, and I just moved in two days ago. Everything is fine, but the house is a little far away. Uncle has passed, but grandma is unwilling to leave, she lives alone in the old house, I just went to see it yesterday.”
Xie Cheng was startled.
Yangzi went on to say, "Dachuan was originally brought up by his grandma, and now grandma lives alone. If he knew about it outside, he might be worried."
After finishing talking, Yangzi saw that Xie Cheng was a little absent-minded, and patted him on the shoulder: "Since Dachuan has been the best with your brother, let your brother go to see grandma when he has time, Dachuan must be at ease."
Xie Cheng frowned seriously: "Thank you Brother Yang, I'm going to see grandma now!"
"What are you panicking about?" Yangzi couldn't help laughing, "Grandma isn't leaving yet."
Xie Cheng forced a smile.
The two sides said goodbye, Xie Cheng didn't speak when they walked home, Xuan Mai touched his arm and said: "Second brother, don't think about it, I will go to see grandma with you tomorrow, and we will go again when brother comes back."
Xie Cheng smiled and said "OK".
He was thinking about the money Geng Chuan gave him, and he didn't know if it had something to do with his parents' divorce, but he also knew that if he asked Geng Chuan directly, he would definitely not be able to find out.
Then he remembered that Xuanhe didn't know about this, and his family had inherited a lot of love, whether it was Aunt Lan's or Geng Chuan's, it was almost impossible to repay one end.
In the end, he inevitably thought of Xie Jun, and Xie Cheng was overwhelmed by anger again.
Finally, they went back to Xuanjia Lane, and they heard voices inside the door, the siblings looked at each other, Xuan Mai's eyes lit up, and he ran in.
"Brother!" She roared, rushed over and jumped high, only to be caught by Xuan He.
Xie Cheng followed behind and shouted in surprise: "Brother! Why did you come back today?"
Xuan He smiled: "It's a temporary appointment. I thought I had something to do, but I finished it ahead of time."
Xuan Fangling was also very happy: "I'll cook."
"Let me do it." Xuan He said immediately.
Xuan Fangling turned and went into the kitchen: "I do what I do, you are tired from the car."
Xuan He smiled, turned his head to look at Xie Cheng carefully, and gestured on his head in surprise: "Eh? Taller than me?"
"Yes!" Xie Chengyang raised his chin.
Xuan Mai slid off Xuan He's body, tiptoed and said, "Look at me, look at me! I've grown taller too!"
"Grow taller, taller than the sky!" Xuan He rubbed her face.
Xuan Mai spoke quickly, pulled Xuan He and said, "Brother, let's go see grandma tomorrow!"
Xuan He: "Miss grandma? I'll go in two days."
"No, no, it's not our grandma," Xuan Mai said, "It's brother Geng Chuan's grandma."
Xuan He was startled, and looked at Xie Cheng.
Xie Cheng hurriedly said: "It's okay, brother, grandma is tough, it's brother Geng Chuan and his family now...no one takes care of grandma."
The two brothers looked at Xuan Mai together. Xuan Mai knew that they were going to talk, so he went into the kitchen to help, while Xie Cheng told Xuan He what happened outside.
After speaking, there was a relative silence for a long time, and at the end Xuan He asked: "He wrote so many letters to you, didn't he mention these?"
Xie Cheng turned his head and glanced at the kitchen, and said in a low voice: "The letter is not written to me either, most of the time it is a note at best."
Xuan He didn't speak, turned and entered the house.
Xie Cheng sighed inwardly, and followed in.
Xuan He walked to the table, took out something from his schoolbag, and handed it to Xie Cheng.
"Huh?" Xie Cheng took it hesitantly, "Why did you buy me a mobile phone?"
"The card is inserted for you," Xuan He put a hand on the back of his neck, "In case you can't find me, my aunt is in the shop all day, and it's inconvenient if you don't have a phone."
Xie Cheng nodded: "Brother, tomorrow..."
"Let's go see grandma tomorrow." Xuan He said.
It’s too cold to go out for a walk or play basketball in winter. Zhou Yu felt uncomfortable if he didn’t move. On the first day he came here, he muttered that he wanted to play table tennis, but he didn’t want to go to the basement. Who would have thought that Zhou Guyan had someone clean up the corner of the living room the next day? Open, set up a ping-pong table.
Zhou's family had dinner earlier, and the people from Xie Cheng's family had just arrived at the table, and the grandpa and grandson had been playing table tennis for a while.
The lights under the porch in the garden were turned on, the dark blue in the sky was getting darker, and the stars were twinkling.
He slapped Zhou Gu'an, waved his hand, put down the racket, walked to the sofa and leaned against him: "Grandpa, rest for a while."
Now that the grandfather and grandson have a perfect understanding, Zhou Daoyu began to recover his nature. He heard this sentence, and while playing with the racket in front of him, he joked: "Grandpa can't."
Zhou Guyan heard the words and said: "When I was young, my physique was not inferior to yours. When you reach your grandfather's age, you may not be as good as your grandfather."
"Hey, then I'll work harder, and I'll let you have a look at it when the time comes!" Zhou Yu said.
Zhou Guyan: "When you were the same age as me, grandpa was all loess."
Zhou Shuoyu thought for a while: "Then I don't care, I think of what you are watching."
Zhou Guyan was slightly taken aback, then smiled.
The ball in his hand didn't drop. After a while, Zhou said proudly: "I found out that I can play ball, grandpa! All kinds of balls, basketball, football, table tennis, badminton, hehe, and billiards."
When he said this, Zhou Guyan asked: "I heard that your aunt opened a billiard room?"
"That's right," Zhou said, "That's why I have been able to play since I was a child."
Zhou Guyan: "Is the billiards room messy?"
"It's okay," Zhou said honestly, "Luohua itself is actually quite chaotic. Occasionally, people will fight in the billiard room, but nothing serious will happen."
Zhou Guyan was silent for a moment, and asked, "Yu Yu, grandpa asks you a question."
"Yeah." Zhou Daoyu received the ball and turned to look at him.
Zhou Guyan asked: "In the future, do you want to live with your father or your mother?"
Zhou said with a smile: "They finally decided to divorce? Why did you ask this, Grandpa? Why didn't they ask themselves?"
Zhou Guyan: "I just asked casually."
Zhou Shuoyu threw away the racket, sat next to him, stretched his long legs forward casually, and said, "I don't want anyone, I want to live with my aunt in Luohua."
"Then you can take my aunt over and live with grandpa in the future." Zhou Guyan said again.
Zhou Shuoyu shook his head: "Grandpa, you asked me last time, my aunt won't come."
Zhou Guyan asked again: "Do you think Grandpa's house is okay? If you like it, you think this house is okay, so I will leave it to you in the future, okay?"
"It's good here," Zhou said, "but it's not because the house is good, it's because you are good here. Do you mean after you die?"
He asked this question too directly, but Zhou Guyan didn't care at all, instead he smiled: "Yes."
Zhou Shuoyu shrugged: "Then I still won't come, you are not here anymore, what should I do here?"
Zhou Guyan laughed again, this time it was very hearty.
After sitting in silence for a few minutes, Zhou Daoyu was still thinking about juggling the ball, when the cell phone on the table rang suddenly.
He got up and grabbed his mobile phone, nestled into the single sofa next to him, opened it and saw a message: "Hello, dear user, I regret to inform you that your number is in arrears. In order not to affect your normal Please recharge as soon as possible.”
Zhou Daoyu sneered: "Little liar, you have tricked me..."
He stopped abruptly in the middle of speaking, and then unconsciously raised his eyebrows. The three words "little liar" that passed by his mouth just now suddenly changed their taste, and it was almost itchy to chew.
With a strong intuition, Zhou Yu returned the message: "Thank you, little liar?"
After half a minute, the text message from the other end came again: "Dear user, I regret to inform you that the power you deposited for Xie Cheng four days ago is about to run out. In order not to affect your normal use, please Connect it to the socket as soon as possible. Confirm charging, please reply."
Zhou Daoyu laughed for a long time, then turned around and said, "Resume."
Two text messages came in succession:
"Neuropathy!"
"Confirm the charging, please enter the password."
Zhou Shuoyu curled his lips, his heart was bubbling with joy, but he still slandered who was crazy, and quickly pressed the key with two thumbs: "What's the password?"
There was no reply for a long time, so he typed again: "Is it 'Zhou Shuoyu likes Xie Cheng'? Or "Xie Cheng likes Zhou Shuoyu"? Do you want to type it ten times? A hundred times?"
Xie Cheng: "The password is the correct answer to the ten physical papers."
Zhou said: "..."
Although he was choked for a while, Zhou Yu's good mood was like the "higher and higher" fireworks during the Chinese New Year, one layer brighter after another.
Holding his mobile phone, he couldn't help laughing, leaned back on the sofa, glanced out of the corner of his eye when his head rested on it, and found that Zhou Guyan had been looking at him, so he restrained himself a little.
"Less than the girl you like?" Zhou Guyan asked.
Zhou Shuyu replied a little embarrassedly: "Grandpa, he is the one I like."
Zhou Guyan asked, "What kind of child is he?"
Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "If you see him, you will definitely like him very much!"
Zhou Guan said softly: "Then I will bring her to see me in the future."
Zhou Yu nodded heavily, and added after a long while: "I won't affect my studies."
Zhou Guyan smiled: "Grandpa knows."
The two texted back and forth, and the night passed quickly.
Before going to bed, Xie Cheng took a shower and lay on the bed, flipped out Zhou Yu's text messages one by one, and read them back and forth.
Just as she was nestling in the quilt and raised her mouth, someone suddenly knocked on the door lightly.
Xie Cheng immediately stuffed the phone under the pillow and said, "Brother? The door is not locked."
Xuan He pushed open the door and came in.
Xie Cheng sat up: "brother, what's the matter?"
Xuanhe walked to the bedside: "I can't sleep, I have something to ask you."
Xie Cheng returned to his usual expressionless face, he got up and gave way inward, leaving half of the bed to Xuan He.
The two brothers leaned side by side on the head of the bed, Xie Cheng quietly waited for Xuan He to speak, but Xuan He kept silent.
While he was silent, the phone under the pillow vibrated twice.
Xie Cheng froze and didn't move.
Xuan He asked: "Don't you want to see who sent the message?"
Xie Cheng's heart was beating fast, but his face remained calm: "Let's talk to Zhou, I just told him that this is my number."
Xuan He nodded and stopped talking.
After a long time, Xie Cheng calmed down from the shock just now, and a shivering feeling surged to the tip of his heart.
In the end, he started first and asked, "Brother, do you hate Brother Geng Chuan?"
"I don't hate it." Xuan He said, paused, and repeated softly, "You asked, I don't hate it."
Xie Cheng pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice after two seconds: "Then do you hate homosexuals?"
☆, phone
After being silent for a while, Xuan He said, "Have we discussed this issue before?"
"Really," Xie Cheng looked down at the stripes on the quilt, "I don't remember."
Xuan He nodded.
Xie Cheng grasped the side of the quilt tightly with the hand placed by his side, and asked calmly, "Do you hate it?"
"Other people have other people's lifestyles," Xuan He said, "It's not up to me to say whether I hate homosexuality or heterosexuality."
The clenched hands were released silently, and Xie Cheng let out a "huh".
Xuan He's words were indeed correct, but it was not the answer he wanted, but he couldn't muster up the courage to ask him again.
After a while, he went back to the very beginning: "Brother, you said just now that you wanted to ask me something. What do you want to ask?"
Xuan He: "I don't want to ask now."
Xie Cheng couldn't help but smiled: "Brother, you are acting weird now."
"Really?" Xuan He also laughed, lifted the quilt and lay down, "Go to sleep."
The lights have been turned off for a long time, and there is a strong wind outside again.
The whining sound sounded like a monster when I was a child, but now it sounds like a heavy barrier, which further accentuates the silence in the house that belongs to the cold winter months.
In this comfortable silence, Xie Cheng suddenly whispered: "Brother, Brother Geng Chuan really likes you very much."
Xuan He may have fallen asleep, or Xie Cheng's voice was drowned out by the wind, but no one responded.
Xie Cheng turned over and lay on his side with his back to Xuan He. He reached under the pillow with his right hand to hold the phone. After thinking for a while, he still didn't take it out and click on it.
The next day, the three brothers and sisters went to Geng Chuan's house together.
When we went there, the sun was just right, Xuan He pushed open the half-closed courtyard door familiarly, Xie Cheng stood behind him, and saw the old man basking in the sun.
"Grandma." Xuan He shouted.
Grandma turned her head, looked at Xuan He carefully, and stood up: "Is it Xiaohe?"
"Grandma." Xuan He yelled again, and hurriedly walked forward with a smile, wanting her to sit down.
Grandma laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes: "Oh, it's Xiaohe! How long has it been since you've been to grandma's house? Haven't you been here since Xiaochuan left? Are you in college now?"
"Ah, yes." Xuan He responded, "Before I was busy in my third year of high school, and then Geng Chuan left again, so I haven't come to see you."
Xie Cheng and Xuan Mai also smiled and greeted each other. Grandma responded with a smile, and said, "Okay, Xiaohe has gone to college, and my siblings are all grown up."
Xuan He was fine all the time, and only turned his head when his grandma was pulling Xuan Mai to talk. He glanced at a blooming wintersweet in the yard, and finally showed a bit of unspeakable sadness on his face.
fleeting.
Standing by the side, Xie Cheng could see clearly, and couldn't bear it immediately.
The winter is long, and the winter without Zhou Yu is even more long.
After sending text messages for several days in a row, one morning the phone suddenly quieted down, and Xie Cheng found out that he was in arrears.
But this day is the birthday of the Stove King Bodhisattva, the family is busy fighting the dust, Xuan Fangling is still guarding the shop, and the three brothers and sisters have to clean up the house inside and out, not letting go of any corners, Xie Cheng also I didn't have time to go to the street to pay the phone bill.
Even after sending many messages, no one responded. Zhou Guan was sleeping at noon, and Zhou Daoyu sat on the porch and made a phone call, only to find out that Xie Cheng had shut down.
Basking in the sun alone in the garden, Zhou Shuoyu opened his inbox and read through the full messages in it from beginning to end.
In fact, the phone was almost out of text messages, but he didn't want to delete any of them.
Bored, Zhou Shuoyu thought about it, and finally said hello to Aunt Sun, and went out by himself.
Although Zhou Gu'an's residential area is in the suburbs, life is very convenient, and he still has everything within a short distance. Xirong has developed rapidly in the past two years, and if he is willing to go a little further, it will not be much different from the city center.
Zhou Yu detoured out of the community and found a nearby business office. He went in and said to recharge the phone bill. As soon as the salesperson entered the number, he immediately said, "I'm sorry, this is a foreign number, so I can't recharge it."
Zhou Shuo was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that
