why do you like me

051 first

Babies have a milky smell, and the elderly also have a smell.This smell is more obvious in the elderly who live alone.

The old man knew it himself, so he built two beds in the yard, put up a mosquito net and shook a cattail fan, and looked at Cheng Jing with a smile.He said: "The children all grew up in air-conditioned rooms, so they never slept outside."

Cheng Jing nodded, a little worried: "The temperature will drop in the middle of the night, and you will catch a cold easily."

"No way." The old man shook his cattail fan, "Everyone has slept naked in the snow, and there is not enough dew at night to rinse their mouths."

Cheng Jing asked, "What did you do before?"

The two chatted in the yard.It was extremely quiet at night, and one could hear the clinking of dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen next door.When Jiang Chuan came over, he saw Cheng Jing sitting beside the wooden bed in the yard, swinging his legs to repel mosquitoes.

Jiang Chuan patted his bare leg: "Go into the mosquito net."

Cheng Jing: "I'm chatting with grandpa."

He didn't bring anything with him when he came. After dinner, Jiang Chuan helped him buy some daily necessities nearby. He also bought a pair of T-shirts and shorts for 50 yuan, the ones with ugly patterns.Cheng Jing didn't dislike it, and changed it silently.At this moment, Jiang Chuan handed over a bag and said, "Your clothes are all in it."

Cheng Jing was used to sleeping on soft beds, and he didn't know if this kind of hard board could sleep well, so Jiang Chuan spread the quilt on the mat and tried it with his palms on it.The old man was sitting on another bed, slowly shaking his fan.Jiang Chuan made the bed, and Cheng Jing came out after changing.Jiang Chuan watched him go to bed and tucked in the mosquito net outside.

Turning to the old man, he said, "I'm going to sleep here too, do you bother me?"

The old man was still smiling: "Go to sleep. I haven't had any guests here for many years. It is my good fortune to welcome two children to the door today."

Both Jiang Chuan and Cheng Jing laughed.Jiang Chuan glanced at Cheng Jing and thought to himself: I really can't tell who is lucky.

The old man made lanterns at home in the morning and went down to sell them.The elderly don't like to listen to the radio, and they don't even have a TV at home.Cheng Jing originally wanted to help, but the old man said: "If you do too much, you can't sell it, and if you pile it up at home, it will get in the way. Children can go out to play by themselves, and come back to rest when they are tired."

Cheng Jing didn't want to go anywhere, and sat under the tree in the yard to write.During the holidays, Jiang Chuan basically stayed in the logistics park every day, and came here whenever he was free.He hoped that Cheng Jing could stay at Nanxi Chi's place, it would be more convenient after all, but Cheng Jing didn't agree.He rubbed the ink slowly and wrote casually on the paper.Seeing that he was concentrating on writing but sloppy, the old man went into the room and took out a few books, and said, "Liu Gong and Yan Gong's words are all there, you can read them."

He asked Cheng Jing how many characters he had practiced, and at what age he started practicing. After chatting for a while, he stopped talking, walked over with a smile, and touched the back of the boy's head.The weather was hot and there was no wind, and Cheng Jing had a little sweat on the tip of his nose, which the old man wiped off for him.

Cheng Jing looked up at him.

"The kid is so good, why are you so unhappy." The old man always smiled, asked Cheng Jing's horoscope, and said: "Fate is good, but luck is not good, you shouldn't stay in a place that doesn't belong to you. "

"What?" Cheng Jing didn't understand.

The old man moved the chair next to him and analyzed Cheng Jing's horoscope with great interest.His tone is slow and leisurely: "The God of Cookery governs wisdom, you are good at thinking and analyzing; the horoscope is partial to wealth as the god of happiness, and the fortune is excellent, but Guishui hurts the official, and there will be a catastrophe in the last year of Yi; The two of them may turn danger into good luck because of the nobleman..."

Cheng Jing has never done fortune-telling, but he has seen some elders especially respect the words of the master, and they have to count them every year and festival.He couldn't understand what the old man said, but he was shocked by what followed.

The old man said: "Yin Shuhai is flooded with fire, the marriage is difficult, the blood relationship is shallow, and it is destined to be childless."

He lived here for a few days, and the old man didn't ask him about his background, or even his name, but now he said that he was destined to have no children, his family relationship was weak, and he lost his mother and father when he was an adult.Wealth and fate, but bad luck, but there are noble people.

"I've been away from home for too long, I've broken my veins, and I'll have to live here and there." The old man took his hand and patted it gently on the back, "I hope this noble person can save you from danger."

"I..." Cheng Jing didn't know what to say, but the old man had already dragged the chair slowly to tie the lantern under the eaves again.

The sun was shining brightly in the yard, and there was only a shadow under the trees and eaves.Sitting under the tree, Cheng Jing felt much more at ease for no reason.He has always been a person who can calm down, no matter what the result is, he is expected.People like him, or people of their origin, never cared about public opinion.What makes him uneasy is how Cheng Yumin's situation is now, whether Song Yang can escape unscathed, and even whether the woman he hates...can go home safely.

In the evening, Jiang Chuan dragged Nan Xichi over without saying hello, and brought a bunch of ingredients.Originally, Jiang Chuan made a serving for four people, but the old man waited for them to finish their busy work in the kitchen, and then slowly made old tofu with cabbage.Jiang Chuan leaned against the door frame, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Come and have dinner with us, Grandpa, seeing that you always eat so vegetarian, I'm afraid that Cheng Jing, our family, will follow suit and become thinner and thinner in the future."

The old man looked for soy sauce and smiled: "No, Cheng Jing is a good boy, you can go on your own."

Jiang Chuan handed over the soy sauce: "Really not coming? Do you want to drink, from Qiaokou Winery."

The old man said slowly, "Leave me a bowl of wine."

The wine of Qiaokou Winery is a local old winery, brewing local special rice wine.Rice wine has a low alcohol content, less than 20%, and is often used by adults to tease children.Jiang Chuan didn't want to get drunk either, so he bought two bottles.He left a bottle for the old man, and then ate in the yard with Cheng Jing and Nan Xichi.

Cheng Jing stayed in the old man's yard all day without going out, Jiang Chuan was a little worried, what to do if he was bored.He brought over Nan Xichi, who had nothing to do with him. If Cheng Jing didn't reject him, his next plan was to bring Cheng Jing home.

Cheng Jing did not react at all. After eating, he sipped the rice wine with a bowl in his hand and said, "The score will come out in two days. Which school are you going to apply for, Jiang Chuan?"

Jiang Chuan thought about this question, but at that time it was based on the fact that he could apply for exchange students.Now that Cheng Jing was restricted from appearing on the screen, he lost his mind and thought it would be better to stay at Xitangkou.At this moment, he said something hopeless: "I didn't think about it."

The rice wine had a sweet and greasy taste, and Cheng Jing was not used to it, so he sniffed his nose and said, "Before Jiang Xing had the operation, you should not be very willing to go too far away. In terms of your previous achievements, as long as you If you don’t perform abnormally, it is conservatively estimated that you can get 670 points. If you want to save money, part-time jobs are not counted. If you can accept projects in college, there are still so many majors you can choose. After all, you can go to J University , N big, Z big..."

"Hey!" Jiang Chuan frowned, "Don't think about these successes, can't you just eat, drink and have fun without thinking about things?"

After a while, he said again: "Then what is your estimated score, and which school do you want to take?"

Jiang Chuan remembered that Cheng Jing mentioned that in addition to the independent enrollment of colleges and universities, Cheng Jing could have been recommended to B University.But because Cheng Jing's plan was to go abroad, he directly gave up this quota, and did not go to self-enrollment.

Cheng Jing's trip to study abroad was supposed to go smoothly, so he didn't plan any way out.At this moment, he said: "There is no problem with the machine-reading card, and I can get a score of 732 in the test."

Nan Xichi took a sip of wine: "...I got more than 300 in the exam."

Jiang Chuan stared: "Honey, the total score is only 750."

Last year, the top scorer in science in this province had a total score of 705, but it is not comparable in terms of the difficulty of the test paper, so it can only be used as a reference.Jiang Chuan thought for a while and said, "It seems that this score is not difficult for you."

He looked at Cheng Jing: "I remember your dad graduated from the law department of University B, and you plan to go to University B?"

He tensed up for no reason.He has done so much just to be with Cheng Jing, but if Cheng Jing really went that far away...it seems right, but...it's too uncomfortable.

"You want me to go to University B?" Cheng Jing finished his rice wine and looked at Jiang Chuan with a bowl in his hand.He obviously showed no expression, but Jiang Chuan could see the narrowness on his face.

Jiang Chuan gritted his teeth: "Just play with me as you like."

Nan Xichi poured the rest of the rice wine into his own bowl: "Students play slowly, I'd better get drunk when I'm a scumbag."

On the day of the score check, Cheng Jing finally walked out of the yard.It was Saturday, Jin Min and Jiang Xing were both at home, and they couldn't react to seeing Cheng Jing suddenly.Jiang Xing rushed over directly: "Brother Cheng Jing!"

The computer was in Jiang Chuan's room, Jiang Chuan went upstairs with two exam admission tickets, Cheng Jing and Jin Min Jiang Xing were downstairs in the living room.Jiang Xing didn't care about Jiang Chuan's grades, but kept talking beside Cheng Jing.Jin Min was nervous and a little restless, Cheng Jing comforted her: "Jiang Chuan should be able to pass 670 in the exam, don't worry, Auntie."

Jiang Chuan went downstairs with a look of disbelief: "Cheng Jing, you really passed the 732 exam!"

Cheng Jing nodded, and said lightly, "What about you?"

"I'm 689." Jiang Chuan looked at Jin Min, "Mom, I'm more than 120 points higher than last year's first line!"

When Cheng Jing said that he was able to take the 670 test, Jiang Chuan didn't feel anything, he only knew that his performance was not bad.Now that the results came out, it felt unreal.Jin Min was also very surprised. He stood up, took the admission ticket and walked upstairs, saying, "You must have made a mistake."

Jiang Chuan followed with a smile.

After a while, Jin Min's voice came from upstairs: "Jiang Li, Chuanzi passed the exam! I got 689, which is more than 120 points higher than the first line!"

Jiang Chuan shouted: "Mom, that's a line from last year, this year's hasn't come out yet!"

Cheng Jing and Jiang Xing were laughing in the living room.Jiang Xing stretched out his arms to hug Cheng Jing, and whispered in the boy's ear, "Brother Cheng Jing, congratulations, you're going to be fine, you'll be fine."

Cheng Jing smiled and stroked her hair: "I'll congratulate your brother later."

Jiang Chuan's performance was even better than he expected. Cheng Jing didn't know how the others were doing, but with this score, he could enter the top three in the grade.

Cheng Jing also went with Jiang Chuan on the day he returned to school to collect college materials.People of their age didn't pay much attention to Cheng Yumin's matter, and Jiang Chuan also said that some classmates had always cared about him, so Cheng Jing planned to leave after meeting a few acquaintances.

Wang Yi had been notified a long time ago and was waiting at the school gate. When he saw Cheng Jing and Jiang Chuan from afar, instead of yelling and yelling as usual, he rushed over sneakily and said, "What's the matter with your grades?" , why is Jiang Chuan the first?"

"I am number one?" Jiang Chuan was puzzled, "How is it possible, my score is more than 40 lower than Cheng Jing's."

No matter how mediocre Xitangkou No. [-] Middle School was, Jiang Chuan didn't think he could be the first in the exam.However, Wang Yi said: "It's on the honor roll at the gate of the school. The first one is you, Jiang Chuan, the champion of the city, without the name of Cheng Jing."
