slow and quick

Zheng Man's 12th birthday is on Wednesday.

There was a birthday party at home, relatives, friends, and neighbors, and it was very lively. There were 28 tables for the banquet at noon alone.

However, Shou Xing himself did not ask for leave.

I was still in school on my birthday, and I only won the right to go home for lunch at noon.

He was also required to go back to school for lunch break before 45:[-].

Ji Lin also begged for the qualification to go to the banquet.

The two of them ran home immediately after class.

Zheng Man originally wanted to bring his schoolbag, but Ji Lin hurriedly pulled him away, saying that you should just put the schoolbag away, can you still throw it away after eating?

Zheng Man was dragged by him and stumbled towards the school gate.

He ran slowly, and Ji Lin was in a hurry, saying hurry up!Why are you so slow!

Zheng Man was unhappy, and shook his hand: "Just hurry up, hurry up and eat alone!"

Ji Yan froze, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, okay, let's go slowly."

Zheng Man glared at him, ignoring him.

When I got home, my parents were busy.

The guests have already sat down and the food is already being served.

Zheng Man was about to enter the door when he was stopped by the cousin who was serving the food and told him not to block the way.

He hurriedly made way for Ji Lin.

All the way to avoid back and forth, only to the back kitchen.

The one who cooks is a one-stop service hired outside, and Zheng Man doesn't know him.

He asked if he had seen his mother, the chef shook his head and said he didn't know.

Cannons were set off again outside, making loud noises and crackling noises.

Zheng Man began to feel a little unhappy.

Ji Lin pulled him and said that the aunt might be upstairs.

So the two went upstairs again.

Didn't see mom.

Waiting and waiting, at 12:30, my mother came in from the outside, and she was a little surprised when she saw Zheng Man: "Are you back?"

Zheng Man frowned, but still held back his dissatisfaction and asked her where she came from.

Mom went to wash her hands and told him with a smile that she had just returned from kindergarten.

"It's your birthday today. My uncle and aunt bought cakes. I thought you wouldn't be able to come back at noon, so I cut one and gave one to my son." Mom complained with a smile, "That kid loves these Something sweet and greasy."

Ji Lin's face turned cold at that moment.

Zheng Man saw it and gave him a tug, motioning him to stop talking.

After my mother washed her hands, she asked him again: "Have you eaten yet?"

Zheng Man shook his head: "Not yet."

Mom was in a hurry: "Why don't you eat so late? Are you going to go back to school later?"

"I have to go back at 45:[-]." Ji Lin answered for him.

The voice was a little stiff.

The mother clicked her tongue: "You child, alas."

He hurriedly went to the back kitchen to serve him food and vegetables, and urged them to eat quickly so that they wouldn't be late.

Zheng Man took a few bites, and when she heard her words, she pursed her lips with serious eyes: "It's already late."

Already forty.

Even if you don’t eat, you can’t walk to school in 5 minutes.

Mom looked at the time, it was true.

So he asked him anxiously: "Why don't I pretend and you can take it back to school to eat? The teacher will tell you if you are late..."

"It's okay," Ji Yan interrupted her, "I'll just talk to the teacher later,"

Zheng Man lowered his head, couldn't see his expression, and sat there motionless.

Ji Lin glanced at him, and said to Zheng Man's mother, "Go ahead and leave it alone."

It happened that someone was calling Zheng Man's mother, saying that chopsticks were missing.

She had no choice but to answer, telling Zheng Man and the others to eat quickly, and go back early after eating, and then hurried to the person who called her.

When I walked to the door, I remembered again, and called Zheng Man: "Manman!"

Zheng Man looked up at her, expressionless.

She suddenly felt a little guilty, straightened her hair, and said with a smile: "Happy birthday."

After she walked away, Ji Lin looked at Zheng Man.

Zheng Man pawed at the meal, and couldn't swallow it.

"If you can't eat, then don't eat," Ji Lin pulled his chopsticks away, "Let's go buy some snacks, do you want some potato chips?"

Zheng Man was silent for a while, put down his chopsticks, stood up, and the two went out.

When going out, my uncle saw it and called him, saying to go to school?

Ji Lin agreed for him, saying that he would go to school for lunch break.

Zheng Man walked out with his head sullen.

I could still vaguely hear my uncle muttering behind his back, saying why the kid didn't call out.

Ji Lin walked a few steps quickly, put his shoulders on his shoulders, and asked him in a low voice: "Are you all right?"

Zheng Man shook his head.

After a pause, he twitched the corner of his mouth ironically: "I'm used to it."

In fact, I can't blame my mother.

She is very busy.

She got up at three in the morning this morning to make soy milk and make dumplings.

In the middle of the morning, after sending Zheng Fengju to the kindergarten, he began to prepare the banquet again.

She actually told Zheng Man last night and asked him to try to ask for leave.

But she also felt that most likely she would not be able to invite them.

Since Zheng Man didn't come back in the morning, she thought that Zheng Man would not come back.

Both children have to be looked after.

Zheng Fengju is only four years old, so of course he needs more care than the 12-year-old Zheng Man.

Therefore, it is inevitable to ignore Zheng Man.

And it was so late that he hadn't eaten yet, in fact, there was some element of Zheng Man's anger.

He's been having a rough day today.

I didn't ask for leave, and the pen broke during class, and the ink got on the white padded jacket.

He took a new pen from Ji Lin, but accidentally punctured a page of his favorite book.

Hurriedly rushing back to eat, Ji Lin said he was slow on the way.

When we got home, it was his birthday, but he was the main character but no one paid any attention to him.

Everyone shouted at him to "make way" and "don't block the way".

As if he was a passerby in the way.

Honestly, it's not a big deal.

But a bunch of things that don't go well together can make people very annoying.

Once annoyed, he started to get angry.

As a result of being angry, I found that I was really completely ignored.

Annoyed and sad.

Ji Lin led him to the supermarket and asked him if he wanted cucumber-flavored potato chips or the original flavor. He felt noisy and yelled at him irritably: "Whatever! Don't make noise!"

After yelling, he realized that he was venting his anger again, gritted his teeth, and said dejectedly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

Ji Lin patted him on the shoulder very generously: "It's okay, it's okay, brother Lin, I'm scolded very much."

She smiled and asked him: "Why don't you swear a few more words, I will swear when I am angry, I have scolded my pillow many times, it will be fine if I swear."

Zheng Man's first reaction was to retort: ​​"I'm not angry."

Seeing Ji Lin's heartless smiling face, he suddenly let out a sigh of relief.

The thorns on his body seemed to soften.

He breathed out, sullenly: "I don't want to be angry, and you didn't do anything wrong, why scold you."

Ji Lin shrugged indifferently: "It doesn't matter if you didn't do anything wrong, my pillow didn't do anything wrong, so don't I scold it too?"

Zheng Man really wanted to laugh now.

He couldn't laugh or cry: "Why are you scolding the pillow? What did the pillow do wrong?"

Ji Lin groaned: "You only scold it if you like it."

There is simply too much to say.

Zheng Man "..." for a while, then sincerely said: "It's so miserable to be liked by you."

Ji Lin giggled and asked him, "Are you still angry?"

Zheng Man shook his head: "There's nothing to be angry about."

He picked up a jelly from the counter and said to Ji Lin, "I want this."

Ji Lin patted his pocket: "Okay! Buy it! Brother Lin is rich!"

Stupid.

Zheng Man couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing Zheng Man's smile, Ji Lin was relieved and laughed too.

By the time we got to school, it was past one o'clock.

Zheng Man was ready to be talked to by the teacher, but the teacher was not there.

His deskmate quietly handed him a note, saying don't worry, the boss didn't come over at all, so he didn't know you were late.

Zheng Man smiled, thanked him with his mouth, took out bubble gum from his pocket, and asked him if he wanted it.

He waved his hand, no, turned his head and continued to sleep.

Zheng Man tore apart the bubble gum, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it carefully, and lay down on the table, dazed.

He envied Ji Lin so much.

He is the only one in Ji Lin's family, and his parents love him very much, much more than his parents.

Ji Lin's 12th birthday is summer vacation, so the banquet is held not on the day of his birthday, but on the day after his birthday.

On Ji Lin's birthday, he played all day.

His father was in Tibet and couldn't make it back in time, but a birthday present was sent ahead of time, which was a harmonica.

When Ji Lin showed Zheng Man the harmonica, Zheng Man asked him curiously, "Can you still play the harmonica?"

He was ready to praise Ji Lin, but Ji Lin shook his head confidently: "No."

Then facing the speechless Zheng Man, he raised his eyebrows: "Why! Look at me like that? I haven't learned it before, isn't it normal to not know how to brag?"

This is true.

Zheng Man sat there with his face propped up and looked at him: "Why did that uncle give you a harmonica?"

Ji Lin thought for a while: "Hmm..."

Ji Lin was very disgusted: "I guess he just bought it casually, and didn't even think about whether I would."

Zheng Man: "..."

It is indeed something Uncle Ji can do.

He asked Ji Lin: "Then what are you going to do with it?"

As he spoke, he compared his chin to the harmonica.

"Just learn how to blow it," Ji Lin said indifferently, "I bought everything, it shouldn't be difficult to learn."

Then half a year later, Ji Lin still didn't learn the harmonica.

From time to time, Zheng Man picked up this matter and laughed at him.

Ji Lin received a lot of gifts that day.

Father's, mother's, grandparents', aunt's, grandparents'.

There is also a jar of thousand paper cranes that he made a fuss about in Zheng Man's place by being a strong man and acting like a baby.

On his birthday, he got up early in the morning, after five o'clock.

He dragged Zheng Man over the night before, and forced him to sleep with him all night.

Then he dragged Zheng Man up early in the morning.

For breakfast, Zheng Man served him longevity noodles.

Ji Lin's mother went to work in the morning.

After eating the noodles, he took Zheng Man to the nearby mountain on the mountain bike his grandfather bought for him.

He rode so fast that Zheng Man shouted for a long time to slow down.

Not only did this idiot not slow down, but he even sped up his speed. He laughed loudly, saying it's cool?

Cool shit!

Zheng Man was so frightened that his face turned pale, and when he got down, he beat him frantically, chasing him and beating him.

While being chased and beaten, he laughed loudly.

Mountain climbing in the morning.

After coming back, he took a shower, went to grandpa Ji Lin's house for lunch, and when he was done, he went to the city to watch a movie by car.

Accompanied by my aunt.

Popcorn, Coke, and a summer comedy movie.

After I came out, I went to KTV again, and I had a great time playing there.

Howling until their voices became hoarse, the two were exhausted, supported each other, and went back to the countryside in their uncle's car.

Ji Lin fell asleep in the car.

Snoring cheerfully.

Zheng Man looked at him a little funny.

Uncle Ji Lin glanced in the rearview mirror, and whispered to his aunt, "Look."

My aunt took a look and smiled, "Why are you still snoring?"

Ji Lin leaned on Zheng Man's shoulder and buried his head on his shoulder.

Zheng Man was a little embarrassed, moved her body carefully, and adjusted her posture to prevent Ji Lin from accidentally slipping down.

Then give Ji Lin his respect there; "It's not like this usually, it should be too tired."

It's really exhausting.

When I got home, I was still in a daze when I was woken up.

Zheng Man dragged him home, and when he got to the bedroom, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Ji Lin's mother was stunned, and whispered: "The cake hasn't been cut yet!"

Zheng Man has a headache.

He looked at Ji Lin, and then at his aunt: "...or cut it tomorrow, he probably won't be able to eat it anymore."

I just ate a whole fruit platter at KTV and drank a large bottle of watermelon juice.

He is sleeping comfortably now, and he is amazing if he doesn't run to the toilet and break his legs later.

The birthday star is asleep, so of course it can only be cut tomorrow.

Ji Lin's mother smiled and sighed, told Zheng Man to wash up and go to sleep, and went back to the house by herself.

Zheng Man didn't expect his birthday to be the same as Ji Lin's.

But it feels...too much worse.

The gap is so sad.

I'm so envious of Ji Lin.
