SAYE

Jiang Cheng felt that he was quite muddled. He had always been absent from class, fighting and causing trouble, but he had never knocked someone out in the snow and then went into the house for dinner.

"Hey," he followed Gu Fei into the shop, stared at Gu Fei and sat back on the chair, and couldn't speak directly in front of Gu Miao, so he could only vaguely remind him, "That...don't care. gone?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine," Gu Fei glanced at him, "I'll leave after a while, at most the bridge of my nose needs to be repaired... You're quite kind, why didn't you worry when you ran into those monkeys?"

"I put them..." Jiang Cheng pointed to the door and chose the words for a long time, "Did you fall asleep?"

Gu Fei looked at him without saying a word, but he could see the suppressed smile on his face.

"All right," Jiang Cheng sat down, "It's not my fault either."

Gu Fei lowered his head and continued to eat, and he didn't say anything else, although he was really not sure if the person outside the door could "get up" and "go away by himself".

Maybe it's because of the different environment. The environment in which he grew up made him no matter how uncomfortable he is, but there will always be a "degree". Gu Fei, look at this dilapidated old city, look at the people around him, this kind of thing may happen No one felt anything at all.

Thinking about this, he really has to thank Gu Fei for not letting him freeze to death when he "fallen" on the snow outside the door.

He was already a little used to keeping silent while eating with Gu Fei brothers and sisters. He had been like this for the last two meals. If Gu Miao didn't say anything, he had nothing to say, and Gu Fei didn't seem to want to say anything at all.

It saves time to eat like this, and you can eat almost in 10 minutes.

Putting down the chopsticks and wanting to say thank you, there was a burst of painful cursing from outside the door, and the sound should mean that the sleeping person woke up.

Jiang Cheng heaved a sigh of relief and listened.

This person had a lot of trouble swearing, probably because the bridge of his nose was broken, or some other bone was broken, and his lines sounded very similar to the way Li Baoguo's neighbors quarreled before.

Probably belongs to the neighborhood culture.

However, there was a particularly loud sentence in it that made him unable to help but glance at Gu Fei.

"I'll fuck your mother, what's the matter!" The man cursed a little inarticulately, but he could still hear it.

After Gu Fei met his eyes, he took another sip of soup before saying: "My mother's boyfriend..."

"What?" Jiang Cheng was shocked when he ate two catties of mutton before he finished speaking. Although the man was disgusting, he was only around thirty. up.

"One." Gu Fei finished speaking.

"Huh?" Jiang Cheng was stunned.

"Are you full?" Gu Fei asked, "There's still some meat, if you're not full, add more."

"I'm full, I'm full." Jiang Cheng nodded quickly.

"Er Miao clean up." Gu Fei put down his chopsticks.

Gu Miao stood up immediately, skillfully put several rice bowls together, grabbed the chopsticks, and walked out the back door with her hands in her hands.

When Jiang Cheng saw this posture, he was suddenly a little upset, and remembered what Li Baoguo said, "This kind of thing is done by women", and he stretched out his hand to help clean it up.

"You sit down," Gu Fei stopped him, "She can clean up."

"It's a woman who should do this, right?" Jiang Cheng squinted at him.

Gu Fei was stunned and smiled: "Did I say that?"

"It's all in silence, right?" When Jiang Cheng thought about the messy behavior of Li Baoguo's family at night, the anger that had been calmed down so easily wanted to rise again.

"I," Gu Fei pointed to himself, "cook."

Jiang Cheng looked at him.

"Gu Ermiao," Gu Fei pointed to Gu Miao who came back from the back door, "Wash the dishes."

Jiang Cheng still looked at him.

"Is there something wrong?" Gu Fei asked.

"Ah." Jiang Cheng looked at him, and all the rising anger instantly turned into embarrassment.

"Ah?" Gu Fei also looked at him.

"...Ah." Jiang Cheng really didn't know what to say.

Gu Fei ignored him, got up and walked away, sat behind the cash register and lit a cigarette.

He wanted to leave, but his upbringing made him unable to leave as soon as the chopsticks were placed after eating at other people's houses. He could only sit by the table and watch Gu Miao make two or three trips to clear the table.

Just as he was about to ask Gu Fei for a cigarette, Gu Fei stood up with a cigarette in his mouth, and followed Gu Miao out of the back door.

He was the only one left in the store staring at an empty table in a daze.

Hold.

He took out his mobile phone and sent Pan Zhi a message.

-grandson.

-grandfather!chat for a while?

-No time

Pan Zhi sent a voice message over: "You're so fucking idle, right? I was just cleaned up by my mother and didn't even give me food!"

When Jiang Cheng heard it, he was immediately amused, and replied his voice, laughing for 20 seconds.

After laughing, he stood up, intending to go to the back to see what the Gu Fei brothers and sisters were doing, and he should leave if there was nothing else to do.

The back door is a small courtyard, which should be shared by several facades, with toilets and a small kitchen.

As soon as Jiang Cheng went out, he was slapped in the face, so he hurried to the kitchen.

Gu Fei stood with his back to the door, and Gu Miao was standing in front of the sink washing the dishes with hot water.

The little girl is quite proficient in washing dishes, and her expression is very focused.

Jiang Cheng looked at it for a while, and felt that he didn't quite understand the significance of Gu Fei standing here. Gu Miao was no longer a child. Since she was asked to clean up and wash the dishes, then it was enough to do the washing. Why did she have to stand here and watch?

"That..." He cleared his throat.

Gu Miao didn't know if it was because she was too absorbed in washing, as if she didn't hear his voice, she was still washing the dishes seriously.

Gu Fei turned his head back: "Huh?"

"I'm going to go," Jiang Cheng said, "Do you have a coat you don't wear? Lend me one."

"No." Gu Fei said.

"Fuck?" Jiang Cheng looked at him, "What do you mean?"

"There are some that you wear often," Gu Fei said, "It's in the cupboard in the back room, you can take it yourself."

"...Oh, thank you." Jiang Cheng turned around to get his clothes.

"Brother Cheng." Gu Fei stopped him.

Jiang Cheng stopped, and Gu Fei followed Gu Miao to call him Brother Cheng, which made him feel a little strange, but it was inexplicable and quite refreshing, and he almost wanted to say something about this little brother.

"Let's go after she finishes washing, and say goodbye to her." Gu Fei said.

"Well," Jiang Cheng nodded, "You...give me a cigarette."

Gu Fei took the cigarette case and lighter from his pocket and handed them to him, then turned his head and continued to watch Gu Miao wash the dishes.

Jiang Cheng lit a cigarette, stepped back to the door to light it, and watched Gu Miao wash the dishes together.

Although he was not sure and it was not convenient to ask, he felt that Gu Miao might be different from ordinary children, so Gu Fei even had to watch her wash the dishes.

However, since she was so nervous, why did she let her fly all over the street on a skateboard alone, and she didn't seem to care much about being bullied.

amazing.

The people here are amazing.

Sometimes he feels very illusory, these streets, these scenes, these people he sees, these things all have a kind of unreal feeling, only when he is in contact with Pan Zhi, he will return to the real world .

Have you crossed over?

Another era?Another space?

the world?

I startled myself into a shudder.

Gu Fei happened to turn his head to look at him: "How nice it is for you to stay in the room."

Jiang Cheng ignored him.

Gu Miao finished washing the dishes and put away all the dishes before turning around and leaving the kitchen. When she passed by Jiang Cheng, she seemed not to see him. Jiang Cheng followed her into the shop, and she turned around and saw him when she was looking for someone. Jiang Cheng.

"You're pretty capable." Jiang Cheng gave her a thumbs up.

Gu Miao rubbed her nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

"That," Jiang Cheng bent down to talk to her, "I'm leaving."

Gu Miao glanced at Gu Fei, then nodded at him.

"Goodbye?" Jiang Cheng raised his hand to wave to her.

Gu Miao also waved to him.

Jiang Cheng smiled. He thought he could hear her say "goodbye", but he didn't expect it to be a pantomime.

Gu Fei went into the room and brought out a long down jacket for him.

"Thank you." Jiang Cheng took the clothes and looked at them.

"Hat, gloves, scarf and mask?" Gu Fei asked.

"...No need," Jiang Cheng said, the total distance was only a few hundred meters, "Chargers...do you have many?"

Gu Fei went into the room again and took a charger and gave it to him.

"Thank you." Jiang Cheng took it and put it in his pocket.

"...If someone punches you, don't you have to say thank you out of habit?" Gu Fei said.

"Why don't you try it?" Jiang Cheng put on his coat, lifted the curtain and went out.

Gu Fei stretched, took the phone to check the time, and patted Gu Miao on the head lightly: "Let's go, we're going home."

Gu Miao quickly ran to close the doors and windows, and stood outside the shop with her skateboard in her arms, waiting for him.

He collected the money at the cash register and turned off the light.

"Walking back today, Sister Xin drove our car away." Gu Fei locked the door of the store, "You will go in to do your homework when you get home, and you can only come out after you finish your homework."

Gu Miao nodded, put the skateboard on the ground, kicked off and rushed out, skating more than ten meters, tripped over something, and fell off the board.

Gu Fei smiled and whistled.

Gu Miao ignored him, got up, stepped on the skateboard and rushed out again.

When I got home, it was just after eight o'clock, the lights in the living room and the TV were on, and the door of my mother's room was closed, but there was a light under the door.

After Gu Miao entered the room to do her homework, Gu Fei went over and knocked on the door.

There is no response inside.

"I'll go in in a minute." Gu Fei said.

After going to the kitchen to boil some water and making himself a cup of tea, he went back to the door of his mother's room, knocked twice and then unlocked the door.

The door was not locked, and it couldn't be locked. Last time when my mother committed suicide, he broke the lock and never fixed it.

"Get out," my mother sat on the small sofa by the window, holding the phone in her hand, staring at him with burning eyes, "Get out! Who let you in!"

"Are you on the phone with that kid?" Gu Fei raised his voice, "Tell him, if you don't hang up, I'll go find him tomorrow, and even the store where he was taken to work will not be left as scum for him."

"You..." Mom gave him a blank look, and held the phone to her ear, "I'm telling you... hello? hello? hello! You bastard!"

My mother smashed her mobile phone on the sofa: "No, what's wrong with you! Your mother is in a relationship and you talk about it endlessly. Is it a bit too much! Our family has no inheritance! We are afraid that someone will Do you want to grab it with you two?"

"Choose one of your little men, a reliable one," Gu Fei took a sip of his tea, "You see, I don't care."

"Which is unreliable!" Mom frowned, "It's so annoying."

"Which one is reliable?" Gu Fei looked at her, "If you don't pay them for a try, see which one will take care of you?"

"Why ignore it!" Mom slapped the sofa, "Am I ugly? If I'm ugly, can you be called handsome from childhood to adulthood!"

"Yeah," Gu Fei took a small mirror on the bedside table and took a picture of himself, "Handsome."

"You..." Mom cut her off when she opened her mouth.

"Everyone told me that your mother was beautiful when she was young." Gu Fei put down the mirror, "Do you know what it means to be young? Now there are many girls who are prettier than you, younger than you and stupid than you, No matter how much money you have, someone in his 30s can talk to you in his 40s..."

"Get out, get out!" Mom jumped off the sofa and pushed him out the door, "I have nothing to say to you, get out!"

Gu Fei grabbed her wrist with his backhand: "Don't take any more money from the cash register, just that little, I don't know if you took it without counting it."

Mom didn't speak, and went back to the house and slammed the door behind her.

Gu Fei sat down on the sofa in the living room, drank two sips of tea, took the remote control and changed a few times to get off the stage. At this time, the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law are tearing up the drama, or the Virgin Mary who melts the scumbag with love regardless of previous suspicions drama.

After a few glances, he turned off the TV and went into his room.

After turning on the computer, between writing his homework and processing today's photos, he chose the photos without even the slightest hesitation.

As for homework, if you can't write it or not, you can't write it, just like failing an exam.

He uploaded the photos in the camera to the computer, deleted the useless ones first, and then picked out the ones worthy of post-processing from the remaining photos.

Er Miao's are pretty good, the little girl doesn't smile when taking pictures, her face looks serious like she's going to bomb the school, but she looks pretty cool.

The photos of the street scene are not good, they are too messy, and the background is also mixed. The photos of the sunset are not bad, and the photos of the man with the red coat passing by on the bridge are particularly good...Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng, these few photos of Jiang Cheng...

He frowned and compared, kept the first one, and then deleted the other ones.

Put on your headphones, listen to music and start taking pictures.

Processing photos is a troublesome thing, but he finds it very interesting to do it, much more interesting than class.

It's just that recently this music player has been tuned a little too vigorously by him, and the songs on the private radio station are booming one by one, making him feel like the electricity is turned on when he clicks the mouse, and he is in a hurry.

He cut the song into the playlist on his hard drive, and it stopped a lot.

After two random songs, a familiar guitar sounded, followed by a piano, and then a female voice.

As soon as I step into the air, I am about to fly... I am confused when I go up, and I hear you say that the world is empty when I go down...

Gu Fei moved the mouse and clicked on the next song.

It’s been several years. I didn’t feel it when I wrote it, but now it sounds a bit naive. The female voice is Ding Zhuxin, but she grasped it very well. The lazy and hoarse voice is full of doubts and struggles.

When he finished looking at Jiang Cheng's photo, he glanced at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock, time is like this, you don't have it when you need it, and don't leave when you don't need it.

He stretched and looked at Jiang Cheng's face, which occupied the entire screen. The lighting was just right, the tone was just right, the boy's disdainful expression was just right, and his eyes that didn't look directly at the camera were also very good.

Compared with the models that Ding Zhuxin paid for in that broken online shop when he was practicing before, he has a much stronger sense of camera lens.

He shrunk the photo down a bit, checked again that there was nothing wrong with it, saved it, and then opened Meitu Xiuxiu.

Remove color, darken color, add filter, dreamy, starlight...

In the end, words were added to the picture—sad singing, unbridled rotation, making the night even more silent.

Made a layout and sent it to Jiang Cheng.

LastOfTheWilds, Jiang Cheng's ID seems to indicate that he is a top student, but although this English is no different from reading pinyin to Gu Fei, he has heard this song and likes it very much, the metallic bagpipe.

Looking at Jiang Cheng's profile picture again, it's a back view plus a profile face, it's very blurry, but you can tell it's Jiang Cheng himself by looking at his nose... This photo is not bad.

Within 2 minutes, Jiang Cheng messaged him back.

-What's wrong with you……

He laughed.

-What's wrong?

-You are actually an emoticon pack author!Why don't you make me a middle-aged emoticon pack?Let's raise a glass to our friendship tonight or something

- you eitherI do it for you

- fuck off

Gu Fei leaned on the back of his chair and laughed for a long time before sending another message.

- what, don't you like it?

- what about human nature

Gu Fei smiled and sent the original photo.

There was no movement from Jiang Cheng over there, and it took a few minutes before he came back to say another word.

- one?Is there anything else?

- no, the other few pictures were not well taken, so i deleted them

-...You are very strict with yourself, why can't you send it and ask me to delete it?

- Didn't you just say you wanted to delete it in the afternoon?

Jiang Cheng didn't reply.

Gu Fei put down his phone, stood up and stretched his stiff arms and legs, and walked out of the room.

The light in Gu Miao's room was already turned off, so he gently opened the door and took a look inside. The little girl had finished her homework and washed, and was sleeping soundly wrapped in a quilt.

He doesn't let anyone disturb him when he's doing his own business. Not only Gu Miao will remember this, but even his unreliable mother knows...My mother didn't know when she went out, and she didn't make a sound at all. bother him.

Gu Fei frowned, took his coat hanging by the door, took out his wallet and looked, the big bills inside were gone.

"Fuck," he whispered.

Going back to the house, he took his mobile phone and dialed Liu Fan's number.

"Da Fei? Are you coming out? We are drinking," Liu Fan's cheerful voice came from the other side, "Li Yan, we are all here."

"I won't go, I need to sleep when I'm sleepy," Gu Fei said, "Come out with me tomorrow."

"Where are you going?" Liu Fan asked immediately.

"The shop selling discs that I mentioned last time." Gu Fei said.

"Is it the store where everyone from the boss to the staff pretends to be a music expert?" Liu Fan asked.

"The boss is really awesome," Gu Fei said, "I want to find that thin-legged grasshopper."

"I know, I don't need you," Liu Fan clicked his tongue, "It's not suitable for you to go, I'll bring someone there, what effect do you want?"

"Seeing the effect of my mother turning around and running away." Gu Fei said.

"Okay." Liu Fan replied.

After hanging up the phone, the phone rang, and Jiang Cheng sent a message.

-Thank you

Gu Fei glanced at his avatar, and found that it had been replaced with the photo that was just passed on.

- The avatar has changed?

- well , it ' s pretty cool

Gu Fei smiled, put down the phone, and was about to wash up, when he walked to the door, the phone rang again.

He went back and took a look.

- I may have to wear clothes tomorrow, I have time to buy them after school

- Will you pay me back without washing?

-...Do you have a cleanliness?

- No, why don't you choose one for the quilt cover and clothes to wash?

- I'll wash the clothes for you

Gu Fei yawned. I don't know if he ate too much meat at night today, and he was very sleepy.

After washing, he fell asleep on the bed and woke up in the middle of the night when he felt cold and covered him with the quilt.

When he woke up in the morning, there was no one at home, his mother hadn't returned all night, Gu Miao had already gone to school by himself, he checked the time, not to mention morning reading, the first class was already halfway through.

"Hey——" He stretched his waist in a long voice, and slowly packed up and went out.

As soon as I arrived downstairs, I received a call from Lao Xu: "Do you want to be expelled if you behave like this this semester!"

"I overslept." Gu Fei said.

"I don't care what excuses you have today," Old Xu said, "I want to talk to you at noon today! I want to be responsible to you!"

"...Are you responsible for what you did to me?" Gu Fei asked.

"You don't give me poverty!" Lao Xu said, "I didn't know about you before, it was my dereliction of duty! Now I know and I will be responsible!"

Gu Fei's footsteps paused: "What's the matter with me?"

"About your father," Old Xu said sincerely, "As your class teacher, I hope you can open up your heart to me..."

"You don't have to worry about my affairs," Gu Fei said, "I don't care who you are, do you believe that I can beat you openly?"
