wooden words

Sometimes it snows in Jiangcheng in winter, but it's not that big. If it falls during the day, it usually doesn't accumulate. If it falls profusely at night, it can cover the earth with snow.What Gu Muyu loves the most is the days surrounded by snow like this. The whole person can be sunk deep in the soft felt circle, roasting in the warm fireplace, drinking a cup of mellow milk tea, and eating a few mouthfuls of sweet and glutinous snacks.Today is the last day of this semester, and Xiao Yanluo and she got No.1 in their respective grades again as expected. She has just entered high school, and with her always excellent grades, she is the best girl in Jiangcheng. In high school, Xiao Yanluo has skipped two grades in the past two years, and she is already in the third grade of junior high school at the age of 12. Those who used to sneer at Xiao Yanluo have long since dared not despise her, for no reason Two, just excellent grades are enough to be envied by others, not to mention there are Gu Sinian and Liao Zhiyuan who really love her behind her.

"Hey", who is it?Li Yanluo looked strangely at the small ball of paper that had just bounced onto her head on the table, and when she unfolded it, her small mouth, which was subconsciously pouting because of serious thinking about the topic, immediately turned into a first-quarter moon at [-] degrees to the right She obediently followed the words "Look to the right" written in the familiar handwriting on it, and when she turned her head, she saw Gu Muyu smiling at her outside the window, mouthing "Why haven't you finished school yet?" She glanced at the podium The mandarin teacher, who was still eloquent, spread his hands helplessly at Gu Muyu, and replied, "Mr. is still in high spirits." Gu Muyu shrugged, pointed behind him, and sat down on the small flower table quietly. wait for her.

Although it was only a classroom away, Li Yanluo could feel that her elder sister was looking at her without even turning her eyes.What is my sister thinking at this moment?Am I sitting right?Will it look ugly when I hold a pen?Would it be funny for me to be brooding?Although she got a high score in the final exam of the Mandarin class, she still didn't answer some questions well. She was already troubled by the questions, and she was even more upset at the moment, feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles.After finally waiting for the teacher to close the handout and say that school is over, Li Yanluo rushed out of the classroom with a stride, blowing past her mandarin class teacher who was about to step off the podium like a whirlwind, which shocked people as if they were hallucinating , but the students in the class were not surprised. Seeing Li Yanluo like this, they knew that Gu Muyu was looking for her again. They really didn't understand how the two of them had such a good relationship since they were not real sisters.

"How did you run so fast?" Li Yanluo threw herself into Gu Muyu's arms like a little butterfly. Gu Muyu took advantage of the situation to catch her, and grabbed her messy little hair in the wind with his hands, "The snow is so slippery. Are you not afraid of wrestling?"

"No, there are workers sweeping snow in the school every day, and I ran here along the tracks they swept." Li Yanluo panted, raised his head and said sweetly.

The winter clothes are indeed a bit bulky, and she is not cold-resistant at all, so she wears extra clothes. Fortunately, she has always been thin, and she doesn't look bloated at all even if she wears a lot.

"It's a holiday, right?" Gu Muyu pinched Li Yanluo's face habitually. She had just stepped into the snow, and her face still had the temperature from the room. It was as warm as a piece of roasted sweet potato.

"Well, why did Sister come here today? Isn't she still on vacation?" Li Yanluo heard her say that she would stay in school for a few days after the final exam when she was sleeping a few nights ago, because there will be a few days at the end of the year. Officials from the Education Department came to inspect the best girls' high school in Jiangcheng.

"I don't know why, but the school let us go again, saying that we should stay at home." Gu Muyu heard some news, but she was not sure, "I heard that there seems to be another big move recently, and all The officials have all gone to the meeting, and although the people from the Education Department can’t reach them, they are also required to attend the meeting.”

Li Yanluo became curious: "It's almost Chinese New Year, what else can I do?"

"I'm worried, it's still related to the gang." Gu Muyu was studying in school, so he would inevitably come across such things from newspapers and books, not to mention that the Northern Expedition in the past two years has been so vigorous, and the gang's influence in Jiangcheng It also once grew stronger. Although the Nationalist government blatantly massacred the Communists last summer and forced the revolution to a dead end, those students who had already been exposed to Marxism still secretly supported the Communist Party.Gu Muyu is not as radical as some students. She has occasionally read a few anthologies of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the Communist Party of China. Although the things in them are very good and attractive, she thinks that the current situation in China is far from what they want to achieve. It was far from being realized, and she even felt that those people were a little exaggerated, because after all, she was born in a high-level family of the Kuomintang, and she didn't feel how bad life is now, at least she still has her father and Xiao Yanluo, a family People's lives are peaceful and beautiful, not to mention how enjoyable they are.

"Oh, that's okay, we can have more time to play together." Li Yanluo didn't particularly care about these things, they were screaming and killing all day long, and they lived their lives as usual. It sounds good, but what does it really do?

"Yeah, let's go home." A while ago, they were busy preparing for the exam, and the two of them haven't had a good conversation together for a long time. Now that they are finally on vacation, Gu Muyu has already planned a series of things they like to do in their minds .

The snow was not particularly deep, and the two habitually walked to the door of the school arm in arm, and there were many people who went out, but only their footprints were so intimate, they were always close to each other, without a trace of separation .

At the entrance of the school, Fu Sheng was already waiting for his two young ladies by the car. When he saw them coming out from a distance, he immediately greeted them, "Miss Mu Yu, Miss Yan Luo, let's go back, the car is ready."

It was still afternoon after school, and the sun in winter was still hanging in the sky, lazily looking down on everything on the earth.Li Yanluo looked at the snow-covered streets under the sun, and thought of the poem "Snow is clear and the wind is full, and the clouds are shining and the sky is shining." After wandering around for a while, I just lived up to the auspicious omen of the vast expanse of whiteness.

Unexpectedly, Gu Muyu had the same thoughts as her. Before she could ask her elder sister what she meant, she heard Gu Muyu say to Fusheng: "It's too boring to go back by car with such a beautiful scenery. I want to stay here with Xiao Yanluo Go for a walk in the snow, it’s still early, you go back first, tell dad that we can walk back by ourselves.” After speaking, Gu Muyu ignored Fu Sheng’s repeated dissuasion, took Li Yanluo’s hand and left.

"Sister, I wanted to walk back with you just now, but we actually thought of a place to go." Li Yanluo held her hand tightly, with joy that could not be concealed in his tone.

"That's right, we two have a good understanding. Looking at your yearning expression, I knew you would be willing to walk in this snow." Gu Muyu stopped, although the snow was not falling, but it was snowing Not to turn the cold into snow, she carefully tightened the woolen jacket on Xiao Yanluo's body. The wet brown fox fur was very warm. Li Yanluo also wore a small velvet hat, which was a little thin and thin. The face is embedded in it, with a pair of round eyes, like a clever little fox.She stared at Li Yanluo's frozen red nose for a few seconds, and then took off the white scarf with red checks around her neck to be worn by others.

"Ah, Sister," Li Yanluo stretched out his hand to block it, "Don't give it to me, I'm not cold."

"You're welcome with me," Gu Muyu wrapped the scarf around the man's neck twice. The scarf was very wide. In this way, Li Yanluo really only had one pair of eyes left outside. Gu Muyu was very satisfied, and took the man's left hand Put it in your pocket, "You are born with a cold body, now we are walking in the snow, it is always right to be more careful, I can't bear to let my little Yanluo get sick because of a romantic relationship."

Li Yanluo was wrapped up all over her body, and she tightly held the left hand in Gu Muyu's pocket. The temperature in her palm was very high, and a wave of heat rushed to Li Yanluo's heart, "Then sister, if you feel cold Just tell me, and I'll untie the scarf for you."

"It's okay, you are wrapped so tightly now, if you are afraid that I will be cold, just stick to me tightly, I will not be cold if I lean on you." Gu Muyu stretched out his arms to hug her from the waist, and told her again, "Put your right hand in your pocket too. We are not in a hurry to go home. We will go to the department store first and buy you a pair of gloves."

"Well, good." Li Yanluo obeyed obediently, revealing a pair of eyes bent into crescent moons.

Li Yanluo's school is not far away at all. Beibin Park is two streets away. Usually there are many tourists and it is very lively. There is a newly opened department store on the way to Beibin Park.

"Miss, what do you want to see? Do you want me to recommend it for you?" There were few customers in the snowy day, and the salesperson guarding the store saw two young girls with extraordinary clothes and outstanding temperament coming in, and quickly started talking.Gu Muyu and Li Yanluo also visit department stores a lot on weekdays. If they really want to shop carefully, an afternoon is not enough for the two of them to kill them. Now they entered the store with the idea of ​​buying a pair of gloves, so they didn't go. Keep an eye out for other stuff, go straight to the area where the salesman takes two people selling gloves.

Gu Muyu fell in love with a lavender five-finger glove with wool at a glance. A rose was wrapped around the wrist with champagne-colored silk thread. The fluff inside was soft and soft. When you put your hands in it, you were immediately wrapped in warmth. .

"Do you like this one?" Gu Muyu tried it on himself first, and said to Li Yanluo, who was dazzled, "Come on, put it on and feel it, does it look warm?" She took Li Yanluo's hand and gave it to him The moment she put it on and put her hands in, she found that the color of the gloves made Li Yanluo's white and slender hands more delicate and cute, and they really matched. She was very satisfied with her eyesight.

"It's very comfortable inside, sister." Li Yanluo raised her hand and looked left and right, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it. Her sister is very good at picking things, and she was a little worried. She should choose for sister. What kind of one is better?

"The two ladies have really good eyesight. These gloves were just flown in from Australia yesterday. They are pure wool and handmade, and they are no worse than Western goods." The salesperson saw that the two liked it very much, and was also happy that a deal was about to be concluded. .

"Okay, that's all, where is the payment?" Gu Muyu didn't hesitate, and was about to ask Li Yanluo to go with him, when she found that she was still looking at the gloves hanging intently, "Which one do you like? Let's go together." buy it?"

"I want to buy a pair for my sister." But why did she feel that these gloves were not good enough for her sister?

"Okay, I don't have to buy it." Gu Muyu rubbed her little fleece hat happily, "If you are really afraid that I will be cold, then hold my hand tightly, okay? With you here, I won't be cold gone."

"En!" Li Yanluo replied heavily, immediately took Gu Muyu's hand, and followed her to pay the bill.Just keep holding on like this, I won't let you get cold, the corners of Li Yanluo's mouth can't stop rising, his hands and heart are warm.

"There are three oceans in total." The salesperson smiled at the two of them.

"It's quite cheap." Gu Muyu lowered her head and flipped through her handbag. After four or five seconds of searching, she realized, "Too bad, all my money is in my schoolbag, and I left it on the car." The air suddenly changed. Be quiet.

"Ah, but I only have one ocean on me." Li Yanluo never puts too much money on her body. Gu Sinian gave her too much money, so much that she was embarrassed to use it. She even asked Gu Muyu to take it. She saves money in a small iron box, and she can keep it on her body for several days before using it up.

Now the two of them didn't know what to do, their eyes stared at each other in a daze.

"It's better for the two ladies to choose other styles. We also have lower prices in our store, and the quality is also good." The salesperson reminded kindly.

"No," Gu Muyu said firmly, "We want this one."

"Then I'm sorry, please bring enough money to buy next time." The salesman still said with a good temper.

"Sister, why don't we come to buy it next time, and it won't be a while." Li Yanluo wanted to take off the gloves as he spoke.

Gu Muyu pressed her hand: "Don't take it off." Then he said to the salesperson, "Can I sign the bill here? We're going home and asked the servants to bring the money."

"This..." The salesperson was obviously a little embarrassed, she didn't have such power.

"I don't know where the two ladies live?" The store manager happened to come over and asked.

"Our family is Gu's mansion, and my father is Gu Sinian." Gu Muyu was not sure whether the people here knew her father, so he could only be a living doctor.

"So it's Ms. Gu, we're blind, we're blind." Coincidentally, this manager has a relative who also works in the government, and Gu Sinian is his relative's immediate boss, so he has heard of Gu Sinian's name , although he knew that Gu Sinian was not a high-ranking official, but he was still a senior member of the Kuomintang. How dare he offend him? "Miss Gu wants to sign the bill, of course there is no problem." He handed the color to the salesperson beside him, who immediately took out the receipt. The manager filled out the information and handed it to Gu Muyu respectfully, "Miss Gu, please take care of it." , when the time comes, just ask your servants to come to our store with the money and this list."

"Okay, thank you." Gu Muyu took the things, put them in his handbag, and said to them, "The things in your store are good, I will come again next time."

The manager's eyes almost narrowed into cracks when he heard the words. He had long heard that the members of the Gu family spent a lot of money. When I saw it today, it was indeed so. This left a good impression. In the future, I will definitely be able to make money. Before getting off work, I came to inspect the business situation of the store, otherwise I almost missed this big Buddha.

"Okay, okay, it's our honor that the two ladies like it. I look forward to your next visit." The manager hurriedly nodded and bowed and sent the two of them out the door.

The two walked out of the department store, still holding hands and walking side by side.Maybe it's because people are lazy in winter, or maybe it's because people don't want to go out after the snow has just fallen. In my heart, it seems that only the two of them cuddling each other are left in this world, so quiet that except for the sound of orderly footsteps, there are only the sound of breathing and heartbeat with the same frequency.
