Fork in the road

Although Yu Xian was not as fond of running and playing as Bai Xiaoyuan when he was a child, he would occasionally be taken out by his parents, and occasionally he would meet Bai Xiaoyuan who was playing with the fitness equipment in the community.

At that time, Bai Xiaoyuan's parents had already divorced, and Bai Xinhong thought those people who talked behind his back were annoying, so he quit his previous job in a state-owned enterprise and found another job that paid well but was also very busy.

Bai Xinhong felt that Bai Xiaoyuan was not too young, so he didn't need to run with him every day, but just came back to visit him occasionally.Bai Xiaoyuan's father, Yuan Min, doesn't seem to be planning to remarry. Although he doesn't have much contact with Bai Xinhong, he spends a lot of time taking care of Bai Xiaoyuan.

Although Bai Xiaoyuan's parents are divorced, there is no dispute in taking care of him, whoever is free will take care of him.Bai Xiaoyuan is very used to the life where father comes today and mother comes tomorrow and no one may come the day after tomorrow.

As a child, Bai Xiaoyuan has a very big heart, and he is heartless to the point of being weird. He walks to the kindergarten by himself, cooks for himself by stepping on a stool, and laughs while playing on the swing in the community. I don't feel like I'm missing anything.

There are always some kind-hearted people who ask Bai Xiaoyuan in a subtle tone, whether it is condolences or ridicule, "Xiao Yuan, don't you find it boring to play by yourself? Do you miss your father and mother? ?"

Bai Xiaoyuan blinked, and pushed back with one sentence: "Why do you want to?"

"Aren't they with you?"

"Why do they accompany me every day?" Bai Xiaoyuan's tone was not forced, nor did his expression pretend to be forced, he just asked inexplicably, as if it was only natural for his parents not to accompany him.

There are also some parents who feel that it is too difficult for Bai Xiaoyuan to be a child, and they will encourage their children to find Bai Xiaoyuan to play more.Among them, Yu Xian's parents are the most active.Yu Xian's parents and Bai Xiaoyuan's parents work in the same unit. Although Yu Xian is about a year older than Bai Xiaoyuan, Yu Xian's parents are several years younger than Bai Xiaoyuan's parents. Having been taken care of by Bai Xiaoyuan's parents, he wondered if he could give something back in this regard.

Yu Xian was not a playful child, but he had to listen to his parents, so when he approached Bai Xiaoyuan, he was more or less reluctant.Although both of them are four or five-year-old children, Bai Xiaoyuan's ability to read people's faces is much better than Yu Xian's - it may be because of a special family situation that he is very good at this.

He saw that Yu Xian was not very happy, so when they played together, he was always a little scruples about Yu Xian's emotions, but as time went on, the two gradually became familiar with each other, and Yu Xian's resistance gradually disappeared, and their relationship became more and more serious. Much better.

But this very harmonious relationship lasted until the two left preschool and went to elementary school.

In terms of smartness, these two people are not bad, and in terms of hard work, these two people are not bad either.

Bai Xiaoyuan doesn't know what hard work is at all, and runs wildly with a few classmates every day after school, while Yu Xian is not a person who likes to run around. After returning home every day, he only completes the tasks assigned by the teacher, and then doesn't care about it. When it comes to studying, just read the books you like-of course they are miscellaneous books, not tutorial books.

One of these two people is quiet and the other is happy. After going to school, they have their own circles of friends, and their relationship has naturally become estranged.In addition, Yu Xian thinks that Bai Xiaoyuan is not doing his job properly, and he has wasted his good head. Is he an idiot? He is so stupid; It's not that they're possessed, they're just sick, so these two people basically couldn't chat with each other in a pleasant manner, because they both felt that the other had a problem with IQ.

However, after entering junior high school, Bai Xiaoyuan realized that he was the only one with IQ problems. However, in elementary school, Bai Xiaoyuan still felt that he was the only one in heaven and earth, so how could he realize what was wrong with him.

At first Yu Xian tried to persuade Bai Xiaoyuan, but later he simply took Bai Xiaoyuan to his home to do homework after school, and refused to let him leave until he finished. Bai Xiaoyuan was so angry that it was hard to refuse, after all Yu Xian was One of the few playmates in his childhood, played with him during those seemingly lonely days, even if he felt that the other party was out of his mind, he couldn't directly reject him with harsh words, so he could only reluctantly follow along Yu Xian finished his homework before going out to the field.

Yu Xian only forced Bai Xiaoyuan to do his homework, and he couldn't force him to do the review and preview.Fortunately, with Yu Xian's supervision, at least Bai Xiaoyuan didn't degenerate to the point where he didn't learn anything.

Bai Xiaoyuan later realized how correct Yu Xian's behavior was, but at that time, he only felt that he was troublesome, and his attitude towards Yu Xian became worse and worse.He felt that the behavior of a good student like Yu Xian was particularly disgusting to him, and he also felt that with a little effort, he could accomplish many things that people who worked harder than him did, so as long as he worked a little harder, he would be able to He catches up with Yu Xian and surpasses Yu Xian every minute, but he just doesn't want to do that.

I don't know where Bai Xiaoyuan's self-confidence comes from, but he just feels that with a little effort, he will be different immediately, so he looks down on Yu Xian who can do whatever the teacher tells him every day.But anyway, it's been a few years of friendship, and I said a few words of disgust, but I still feel that this is my friend no matter what.

Little did he know that Yu Xian felt in his heart that no matter how unreliable Bai Xiaoyuan was, after being friends with him for several years, he still felt that he had the responsibility to help him.That's right, Yu Xian is such a good boy with a sense of responsibility.

This made the awkward friendship between the two of them temporarily come to an end at the end of elementary school, because Yu Xian moved.Both of them felt a sense of relief and relief, and neither asked for the other's contact information in the future.

Probably they all have a kind of meaning that you just fend for yourself and I don't care about you.

It was only after Bai Xiaoyuan entered junior high school that he realized that his little cleverness was not very useful. Before, his grades could be maintained at around the middle level, but now they have plummeted.Bai Xinhong basically never scolded Bai Xiaoyuan, and at that time he just told Bai Xiaoyuan calmly that if this continues, his life may not be so bad, but by then he will definitely resent that he did not give of myself.

These words sound empty, but Bai Xinhong knows that Bai Xiaoyuan is a precocious child, he can really listen to these words, and he can also think carefully because of these words, so that his head will not be full of rebellious thoughts.

Bai Xiaoyuan thought about it for a few days, although the thinking process was a bit tangled, but after making a decision, Bai Xiaoyuan immediately changed a lot of his living and study habits.For example, when you get up early in the morning, you don’t watch TV, instead you memorize words and ancient poems. You can bring books back at noon, and you can read them after dinner. If you come back at night and finish your homework, you can’t be done. do well.

When doing these things, Bai Xiaoyuan felt that Yu Xiancai was really smart and knew what to do and what not to do as a student.It's not too difficult, and it doesn't take up much time. In fact, Bai Xiaoyuan still has a lot of free time to relax, but Bai Xiaoyuan didn't think these things were so important before.It's too late to regret, and he can't go back to the past and hug Yu Xian Xueba's thigh tightly. He doesn't even have Yu Xian's contact information. Now Bai Xiaoyuan can only silently express his 12 points of gratitude to Yu Xian in his heart , and mocked his previous stupidity.

Bai Xiaoyuan didn't feel that these simple habits had any effect at the beginning, but it began to be reflected in his grades when he was in the second year of junior high school.Bai Xiaoyuan's ranking is like sitting on a rocket, and he is ranked in front of his age. Although he can't say that he is in the top few, it is still no problem to be in the dozens.

In short, in the end, Bai Xiaoyuan worked hard to be strong and finally got his wish and was admitted to the best high school in the city. He reckoned that Yu Xian's grades would definitely be fine, but he didn't know if there were so many people in No. [-] Middle School, would Bai Xiaoyuan be able to find him? he.

But Bai Xiaoyuan really didn't expect that the reunion between himself and Yu Xian would be such a scene.He didn't expect that he lived in the same community as Yu Xian again, and he also miraculously bought his second-hand flowerpot.

Although we haven't contacted each other for three years, we can still chat when we meet. The tacit understanding between old friends is really good.Bai Xiaoyuan feels that he can find the feeling of playing with Yu Xian back then, and now he can indulge in studying with Yu Xian and can't extricate himself. Let Yu Xian take a good look at his own changes, really want to think about it I laughed out loud.

No. [-] Middle School is not far from where he lives now. Bai Xiaoyuan reckons that Yu Xian will definitely not live in the school. In the future, he will go to and from school together and have companions. Bai Xiaoyuan thinks it is a wise decision to study hard in junior high school, otherwise How could there be a chance to be high school classmates with Yu Xian?Before Bai Xiaoyuan asked Yu Xian which high school he went to, it was actually just to confirm. Although he hadn't seen him in junior high school for three years, but Yu Xian's grades are so good, there is no possibility that he will not be admitted to the No. [-] middle school.

Speaking of which, this school is also very thoughtful. They actually gave them a homework during the summer vacation of the junior high school. Is it worthy of being the No. [-] Middle School in the city... Bai Xiaoyuan flipped through his homework and looked at the empty ones. After counting the number of super-level questions that I am not very good at, I decisively decided to ask Yu Xian for help.

Originally, Bai Xiaoyuan planned to find his junior high school classmates, but now there is a high school student who lives within a 5-minute walk from his home, so why bother to look far away?Besides, the friendship that has been broken for three years needs to be repaired urgently. Bai Xiaoyuan doesn't know if Yu Xian still considers him a good friend, but Bai Xiaoyuan is willing to take the initiative, after all, he was the one who was stupid back then.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiaoyuan directly sent a message to Yu Xian, "Xianyu Xianyu, have you finished your summer homework?"

Yu Xian's reply came quickly, "Most of them are done."

"Great, when are you free these two days? I have a lot of questions I can't do and I want to ask you."

"I'm free anytime, just let me know."

"Then I'll go there right away! Report the address!"

Bai Xiaoyuan looked at the address of Yu Xian's home, packed his homework and was ready to go out. When he passed by the kitchen, he thought about it, took out a watermelon from the refrigerator, put it in a plastic bag and carried it away.
