A few drops of rain fell on the car window, and then more and more, as if walking together, to give a ride to the people sitting on the train.It can't compare to the excitement when I just boarded the train. The whispers of seeing off people are still circling in my mind, and the people around me still have the strength to say goodbye to the people on the phone.The car has left home.

The rain is tired, they don't come, the sun is lying on Dong Mingcan's shoulders through the window, she is also tired, she obviously didn't do anything, even the luggage was carried up by her parents, how could she be so sleepy, no , is confused.She wanted to sleep, but the noisy child next to her could not let her sleep deeply at all. She hated children, even though she was a child herself.

Seeing that scene again in a daze, her father said to herself: "Dong Mingcan, this is for your own good! For your future!" Tears flooded her eyes, and her father's figure was like a monster in the deep sea, with a bloody mouth Spit out useless fish foam.Looking at my mother in a blink of an eye, my mother opened and closed her mouth, frowning, but she didn't say a word after all.yes!Tears are dry, words are exhausted, what else can make them change their minds!At that moment, Dong Mingcan knew that tears were useless, that they could not exchange for the farewell of her family, so she went to Beijing to study alone, and stayed at her uncle's house. She didn't like her aunt very much, because she remembered that once they went back to their hometown for the New Year, My uncle gave me a red envelope, and my aunt quietly came over to take it away, and took away two.It wasn't about the money, but her series of actions, quickly pulling out the red envelope from her hand, taking it out as if concealing it, and then handing it to her with a smile.She must have thought that she was still young at that time and didn't remember anything, but in fact, she remembered everything.Being far away from parents, blessed with such family affection, Dong Mingcan couldn't help shivering his frail body as soon as he thought about it in his mind.

The child on the hard sleeper opposite seemed to be six years old, and still cried so much.At this moment, Dong Mingcan was actually a little envious. The child was held in the arms of his mother to sleep, and the tears beside his eyes were gently wiped away by his mother.Probably, her eyes were too scorching, and the aunt on the opposite side noticed. She looked at the child opposite, about 11 years old, and everyone around her was with her. The high ponytail could not hide her low mood. She didn't speak, and she seemed unapproachable, but she looked so lonely when she looked over, it was really pitiful, "Are you alone? Where are your parents?" The aunt whispered, afraid of waking her son up.

"Well, alone, they put me on the train and went home." Dong Mingcan is not good at communicating with strangers in such a small space, coupled with this emotion, he answered politely, But the tone of voice seemed to pull himself to the bottom.

The aunt always showed a warm smile, but Dong Mingcan was very ashamed, but this feeling was strangely surrounded by a kind of warmth.In this carriage, she was the only one chatting with herself.Other adults don't care about a child who is only 11 years old.

"That's good, we can stay together all the way." Auntie clearly saw that she didn't want to talk too much, maybe she was too tired to make a sound, her porcelain white face had gray circles around her eyes, she must be tired.

"Go to sleep, I didn't rest well at noon, this child is too skinny, I'm bothering you, go to sleep." She said and pretended to slap the little hand of the child in her arms.

Many years later, Dong Mingcan recalled that she guessed that that aunt was probably the lucky starting point of her trip to Beijing.How much fun has been added to the life that was originally plain.And because of the girl who is coming, it makes so much sense.

Parting from the unknown aunt, Dong Mingcan stood in a trance at Beijing West Railway Station. After a gust of north wind, he was picked up by his uncle in a taxi. Fortunately, the little cousin was so lively that he asked her to ask questions. , did not make her feel the indifference of Beijing.

"Sister, when you come to our yard, you can just play with me, don't play with that Xia Ningxin, Brother Qiu is not bad, you can play with him." The seven-year-old boy said he was dissatisfied with his neighbors.

"Guo'er... Didn't I tell you not to say that about your sister Xia? Be polite." Dong Ziqiang, who is in his 30s, has been sighing helplessly for his only daughter.

"That's what it is. She's such a grown-up, and she earns food with me. Last time I went to their house, she rushed ahead of me and insisted on earning food with me!" Guoer said aggrieved , the eyes were like a faucet turned on, tears fell drop by drop.

"Why are you still crying? Dad didn't really mean you." Seeing his uncle driving, Dong Mingcan patted his sister's head and comforted him: "Guoer doesn't cry, my sister won't talk to Xia Ningxin when she goes, only you Play."

"Okay, what you said, yeah." Shui Tongtou finally stopped.

Taking advantage of the gap, Dong Mingcan observed the tall buildings speeding past outside the window, sticking together without a single gap, which made her a little depressed.

After about five or ten minutes, my uncle stopped in front of a courtyard. "Come on, sister, get out of the car."

This is the first time Dong Mingcan has seen such a courtyard. Stepping over high steps, three vermilion-painted windows and doors stand in the east, west, and north respectively.Dong Mingcan walked into the center of the courtyard, only to see that every door was pasted with red and black couplets. The pen and ink seemed to be written by the same person. The crooked, enlarged tadpole characters tried to write correctly, and they looked like children written.

Just as he was thinking, a little girl came out from the east door. With just one glance, Dong Mingcan snapped his pupils in surprise, let out the air in his throat, and pressed his heart tightly against his chest, with nowhere to place his gaze. Staring at her intently, unconsciously kept looking at her.

Wearing a snow-white cotton dress with powder, the chin is sharp but sensual, the nose is cute, the cheeks are pink, the clear and bright pupils are full of anger, and the broken hair on the forehead is raised up.With ball head tied, full of vigor.What a glorious girl.This is the feeling of 11-year-old Dong Mingcan seeing Xia Ningxin for the first time, no matter how many years have passed.Whenever she recalled this scene, her feeling of first seeing her never diminished.

"Sister, it's her, don't play with her, she will bully you." This was the first time he greeted her, Dong Mingcan held his sister's hand and smiled awkwardly at Xia Ningxin.

Xia Ningxin's stopped figure also moved slightly, but she didn't answer the words, she raised her head and walked to the opposite room.

"Hmph~ Why didn't you answer my words today? You must be afraid. Sister, you are so much taller than her. She must be afraid of you and dare not block my words." With black hair, his eyes looked at the girl just now, oh, no, it was Xia Ningxin who entered the room.

"Why haven't you entered the house yet? My car is parked. Let's go, come in, Cancan, let me tell you, your aunt cooked a lot of food for you. Are you hungry?" Dong Ziqiang's arms were tanned after driving for a long time. Dark-hued, he brought a bowl of vegetable and egg soup and called out the door.

The niece looked at Xia's house in a daze, and yelled at Dong Guo'er: "What are you doing standing outside with your sister!"

Chuyang was born delicately, and the wind was blowing lazily in the yard. Dong Mingcan scratched the broken hair on her temples, and smiled at Guoer. After the clouds cleared, the sun shone down on her heart. , flick hard to itch.

As soon as she entered the room, she saw five dishes and one soup on the table, and the dishes and chopsticks were placed in order. "Where's Auntie?" Although she has shadows in her heart, politeness is the foundation of life.On the train, Dong Mingcan laid a good psychological foundation for himself, applying a sentence from "Zeng Guang Xian Wen": "Keep your ears off what's going on outside the window, and read only the books of sages."

"Mom is guarding the stall and won't come back at noon."

"When the meeting is over, I'll drive to work and take it to her. Eat it quickly, it's going to be cold."

"Ah."

Dong Ziqiang is also an honest person. He came to Beijing to work when he was young. At that time, housing prices in Beijing were not too high.I'm afraid I still don't know why the 95 yuan in 100 is the same as the 100 yuan now, and how to convert it, and my brother and sister-in-law don't want it.Fortunately, my niece is here, and I can make up for it as much as I can.

In a room with three bedrooms and one living room, Dong Mingcan lives in the slightly larger second bedroom. With the curtains open, he can clearly see the yard outside the rice paper. There is an ornamental well, a rattan chair, and a cattail fan beside the well. There should be old people in the yard. people.A vine was planted in the west, and climbed high along the shelf.

"Guo'er, is there any old man in that family?" Guo'er glanced in the direction of Dong Mingcan's finger and said, "Well, it's Brother Qiu's family, but only Granny Qiu lived with him, and Grandpa Qiu lived with him before I was born. Not anymore, Brother Qiu's parents are out of town." After speaking, he continued to play with his jigsaw puzzle, full of energy.

Guessing a general idea, the two families of childhood sweethearts and bamboo horses were automatically imagined in his mind, suppressing the inner drama that was about to move, Dong Mingcan took out the prepared learning materials for the first grade of junior high school.She should be in the sixth grade in the second half of the year, but her parents are afraid that she won't be able to keep up, so they let her go to the fifth grade.But she has finished reading all the sixth grade books.When she is bored, she always chooses to read books.Some people say she is smart, she says she is lonely, and only lonely people read books.And, be alone and have fun.

There is nothing to do, just read a book in another place.Dong Mingcan comforted himself like this.Guo'er was still talking about her way of doing puzzles.Rubbing my stiffened back muscles, I looked up and saw that the sky outside was not as clear as before, and the clouds gathered together, it was a good weather to enjoy the cool air.Moved a small bench, leaned against the well and read a book.But his eyes flicked to a certain place from time to time, and the densely packed tadpole characters were pasted all over. Guo'er said that it was written by the girl named Xia Ningxin.

Closing his eyes, the eyelids were pierced with light, Dong Mingcan stretched out his hands to cover his face, but he couldn't cover the small characters that looked like mosquito shadows.

"You must be Cancan, this little face is so handsome, don't lean on the well, the cold will rush to your body."

He speaks Sichuan dialect, which has a Beijing flavor and sophistication.Meeting people from his hometown in a different place, Dong Mingcan propped up his chair and turned around, and saw a very strong mother-in-law coming out of the door holding a big dustpan.

"Grandma Qiu... hello." Being well-behaved is her sign.I have heard my uncle introduce the people who live in the yard behind my back.

"Hello, hello, your uncle told us that you are coming, don't worry, if you feel something is not used to it, you tell my mother-in-law, mother-in-law has nothing to do all day, there are too many people in the courtyard, and it is very lively. " Qiu Ruiying sat on the rattan chair, and when she was happy, she made the arc of the fan very large, and the wrinkles on her hands and the folds of the fan loosened one by one.

"It's just that my grandson is not very obedient, but I'm having fun with him." She took a long breath at the mouth of the well, and when she peeled off a grain of corn, she smiled at Dong Mingcan: "Now with you, I'm even more excited." It's lively."

There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, and there was a little warmth in her dry face. Dong Mingcan knew since she was a child that she was not a warm-hearted person, so she picked up the bread and peeled it together.

It was cold, Qiu Ruiying grabbed the handle of the fan and kept blowing air to them.The mist that had accumulated by the well all morning gradually dissipated.Through the fog, Dong Mingcan saw two figures of a man and a woman at the door.

The boy's red jersey and black trousers walked with wind, blowing at the corners of Dong Mingcan's eyes, and the corner of the girl's skirt brushed under the eyelids.She hurriedly buried her head and continued with what she was doing.She never noticed the glued eyes of the two on her body.

"You two came back early today."

"I miss grandma." Qiu Bohao was a completely crooked kid in front of grandma.

"What the hell, go and wash your dirty hands." Qiu Ruiying slapped her grandson in the direction of home with a fan blade.

As soon as Xia Ningxin entered the door, she saw the girl from this morning. She was tall and thin, she was wearing all black, not to mention how strange she was, but she kept staring at her!Asking her mother who she was, Xia Ningxin was furious, and she wrinkled her face, thinking that she is Uncle Dong's niece, so wouldn't she want to live here all the time!In the afternoon, I discussed with Qiu Bohao, thinking about how to show her off, and let her know how powerful I am.The 11-year-old girl was frightened by the eyes of an [-]-year-old girl, and vowed to move back to a game.
