Before and after the rain, the spring is cold.

It is said that "a layer of autumn rain and a layer of coolness, a layer of spring rain and a layer of warmth", but after several lingering spring rains, the weather is not necessarily warmer.

Holding the crumpled bills, Chu Ge walked through the moss-covered alley.

The day was wet, and the drizzle was about to fall. There was no one in the alley, and it was silent.

However, after walking through this alley full of dangerous walls, the front side became lively.

At the end of the alley is an old square. Every morning and evening at [-] o'clock, there is the most dazzling ethnic style and fitness square dance, and the sound effects are so loud that they go straight to the sky.Although it has been repeatedly protested and complained by residents in the surrounding communities, it still stubbornly takes root there and does its own thing.

Chu Ge stood at the entrance of the vegetable market, holding the crumpled banknotes in his hands.

Chu's mother said that there was no vinegar at home, and sent him to go downstairs to buy some delicious dishes to entertain the visiting guests.

Chu Ge sighed lowly and walked into the vegetable market.

He had been away from this place for a really long time, and only had a vague memory, which vaguely told him which side he should go to.

But there is no need to remember, as long as you walk in, you will know.

Most of the shops in the outermost circle sell all kinds of rice noodle seasonings.

Chu Ge randomly chose a family to stand still, and looked at the bottles and cans on the table.

The boss sat at the back, saw someone coming, looked at his age, and greeted him: "Student, what are you buying?"

Chu Ge said, "Vinegar."

It has been a long time since there was no vinegar at home, if not for a distinguished guest, he would not have been sent to buy it.

"...Well, the ones on the left are all."

The boss was quite enthusiastic and read the names of several vinegars to him, especially recommended one of the balsamic vinegars, saying that it would be delicious to make cold dishes after buying it.

Chu Ge asked the price.

The boss said, 15 yuan.He also said that this kind of vinegar is really fragrant, and the whole family loves to eat this kind of balsamic vinegar that they use at home.

Chu Ge's eyes gradually moved away.

The boss said: "Just buy this balsamic vinegar, it's really delicious."

Chu Ge pointed to the other side: "I want that."

Looking over, the boss was a little surprised: "This old vinegar is very sour, not very tasty."

Chu Ge pursed his lower lip and said, "I know, that's all."

The boss was so strange that he picked up the vinegar bottle from the table.

Chu Ge handed out the crumpled banknotes he pinched.

He only has ten dollars.

If you buy Baoning vinegar, you can still have a little surplus, but if you buy other kinds, it is not enough at all.

The alleys are winding and the roads are deep.

The spring breeze swept over the muddy yellow soil wall, and blew over the dangerous wall on the other side, blowing the Yingying creeper, and the rustling of leaves.

Looking down from a slightly higher place, beyond the gap between the dangerous walls, you can vaguely see the abandoned railway tracks and platforms below.

There used to be a train station here, but with the relocation of the platform, it has been deserted for a long time.

It is obviously located in the center of the city, and it takes less than 10 minutes to walk out, and you will be in a bustling square.However, in this deep and sleepy alley, it is indescribably remote and desolate.

Walking to the end of the alley, the field of vision suddenly became brighter, and several old-fashioned buildings could be seen standing upright.

Chu Ge walked to the front of the building.

Not long had passed, and if nothing unexpected happened, his class teacher should still be upstairs.

——How could there be an accident?

It was originally a home visit.

One of the reasons why the old class is called the old class is that her status as the head teacher of class 24 in the first year of senior high school is very reasonable and smooth.

But there is a more important reason, that is, her surname also happens to be Ban.

Some mischievous students called her Lady Jieyu in private, counting on her every day to paint silk fans and do things, coaxing and coaxing her to show her literary talents.

——In order not to always suppress them with stacks of physical papers.

But of course, it never worked out.

Empress Jieyu persisted in her hobbies, but also did not relax in her career.The tofu cubes are issued, and the special-grade teacher is commenting. He is proud of the spring breeze, and he is a role model for my generation.

No, right now, it's time to do my job.

Chu Ge stood at the stairs with a streamlined bottle of Baoning vinegar.

It is an old-fashioned building, and the voice-activated lights have long been broken, and they turn on and off, which is completely anti-human.

It doesn’t come when you want it, and you rush to come when you don’t want it. The flickering lights are as shabby as a ghost movie, not to mention the occasional whistling electric sound.

Walking in the corridor, I just feel gloomy.

But this is not the reason for Chu Ge to hesitate.

He was standing at the stairs, with his head down, as if he was waiting for something.

I don't know how long it took before the rustling electric sound finally sounded: "...Why don't you accept that memory?"

"Because it's fake." Chu Ge said.

He stared at the drifting rain, once again, repeating gently in his heart, because it was fake.

——No matter how good that memory is, it doesn't belong to him.

"But if you always believe in that memory, it is real to you."

"...but I just want the real reality, not a false fabrication."

The cold wind blew through the corridor, wrapped in rain, and slapped people's faces.

Little by little.

The system said: "... When did you know?"

Chu Ge smiled wryly, but did not answer.

He's been away for too long, it's time to go back.

Walked through the narrow passage and went up to the third floor, the door was half-closed but not closed.

The door lock mechanism that has not been lubricated for a long time, when it is pulled suddenly, it makes a loud "squeaky" sound, which immediately alarms the people sitting inside.

Just as Chu Ge was about to open the door, he heard a complaint: "This child, I asked you to buy some vinegar. It took so long!"

Someone smiled again, and said kindly: "Mother Chu Ge, it's okay."

Chu Ge nodded, called "Teacher Class", and wanted to enter the kitchen with a bottle of old vinegar.

Chu's mother snatched it away, and said quickly: "...Mom is going to cook, so hurry up and entertain your teacher."

At the end, he turned his head and said to the teacher in charge: "Teacher in class, let's have a light meal here."

One person repeatedly waved his hands and said no, while the other extended his invitation warmly. The two refused for a while, and finally ended up with the class teacher staying.

In the small living room, there was a wooden table, and Chu Ge was sitting on the other side, just opposite to the head teacher.

This was more than two years ago, and the old class was still leading the experimental class of the first year of high school. It looked the same as it was two years later.

——Even the full sense of responsibility has never dissipated.

In the last freshman year of high school, Chu Ge was bombarded by phone calls from his old class throughout the summer vacation, trying hard to think about work, and forcefully persuaded him to change his wish of liberal arts back to science.

And now...

In this cramped and cramped burrow, Chu Ge knew that his previous thoughts might never come true.

Mother Chu almost ransacked the kitchen, prepared a table of home-cooked dishes with meat and vegetable cold salad.

Fortunately, I bought half a chicken before, and used the bone rack to stew the soup. The meat can be fried, roasted, fried, or roasted.

I worked hard to make such a table of dishes, just to entertain the head teacher who came to visit home, and thank her for taking care of the children at school.

At that time, they were full of gratitude and smiling, but when Chu Ge went downstairs, sent the class teacher away, and returned, he saw Chu's mother closing her eyes and leaning on the wooden sofa.

Her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and there was indescribable fatigue in it.

Chu Ge was startled immediately, an indescribable panic seized his heart, and hurried forward, just wanting to take a breath.

Also he was too nervous.

Mother Chu opened her eyes, she was obviously still tired, but her expression was cold.

Chu Ge whispered, "Mom, go and rest first."

He started to clean up the leftovers on the table, guessing that he had to pick them all up and take them back to the refrigerator.

At that time, Mother Chu said calmly: "Put down the bowl first, let's talk about another matter first."

Chu Ge's heart skipped a beat.

The gaze cast over him was as sharp as a torch. Mother Chu hadn't looked at people that way for a long time, and she still put tremendous pressure on him.

"...If it wasn't for your class teacher, I don't know, you don't want to go to school?"

Chu Ge Nene.

When he spoke to the class teacher, he thought about what the parents should do once he was told.

But now, meeting Chu's mother's gaze, she felt so guilty that she couldn't say a word.

Mother Chu said coldly, "What do you want to do after dropping out of school?"

Chu Ge whispered, "Part-time job."

Her expression seemed to freeze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

"... What kind of work do you do?"

Chu Ge didn't remember what he was thinking about, and in a hurry, the words popped out of his head: "No matter how bad it is, you can wash the dishes."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he looked into Chu's mother's eyes and regretted it from the bottom of his heart.

Sure enough, Chu's mother was so angry that her breath became short of breath, and her voice was full of anger: "You think you are only 15 years old. Where can you wash dishes? There is no place for child labor."

Chu Ge said: "...I will be sixteen soon."

Chu's mother became anxious all of a sudden: "You think you are a sweet potato, if you want to go to someone else, you have to ask for it?!"

She looked at Chu Ge fixedly, with indescribable anger and disappointment in her eyes, her chest heaved sharply, and suddenly, she coughed violently.

Chu Ge was so bluffed that he panicked. He quickly poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Chu's mother. He kept patting her on the back and said repeatedly: "Mom, calm down, don't be angry, I won't Dare."

Chu's mother was coughing so badly that she was almost out of breath, she finally stopped and looked at him, her eyes suddenly felt a little sad.

"...It's my mother's fault that she can't let you study with peace of mind."
