as yesterday

It is very hot at noon in summer, even if there are no big trees in Yanxinglong Lane, you can still hear cicadas singing.

Liu Ci made a set of English papers for the first year of high school in the morning. She filled in the blanks out of ten and only got six correct. on the table.

There is a very broken air conditioner at home, but it consumes a lot of electricity, and it is usually not turned on. The old-fashioned upright electric fan is like a tornado when it is turned on at the smallest level.

She and her younger sister Liu Yu lived in a room. Liu Yu's bed was smaller, and the little girl had already fallen asleep on the straw mat.

The water-blue curtain was pulled hastily by Liu Ci, and a ray of sunlight swept in in the middle, falling on the exam paper that she thought was a big mistake.

She was actually a little sleepy, but she was not reconciled, thinking that she would do another set later.

There were no people in the alley at noon, and occasionally someone passed by on a bicycle with a crisp sound of the car bell, and there were twist sellers yelling and passing through the alley.

The biggest thing is the wind.

The sound of the wind blew away most of her will, and she felt a little drowsy.

Just when she was about to fall asleep completely, the window frame was knocked twice.

Liu Ci opened his eyes, lifted the curtains a little, and knocked a bamboo pole on the window frame. Someone from the opposite building popped his head and let out a hilarious sound.

"Liu Ci, are you going out?"

Liu Ci glanced at Liu Yu who was sleeping on the bed behind him, and said in a low voice, "Where are you going on a hot day?"

But after she finished speaking, she repeated it again, afraid that He Yu wouldn't hear her.

He Yu's hair was randomly tied into a ponytail behind him, probably infected by Liu Ci's low voice, he also lowered his voice, and said furtively, "Go and see which class we are in? Who is in the same class as us."

They are 16 years old this year, have just graduated from the third year of junior high school, and passed the entrance examination together at Cheng Gao High School.Liu Ci's grades are usually a bit higher than He Yu's, but for some reason this time in the senior high school entrance examination, his score was on par with He Yu's. He couldn't get into the key classes of Chenggao. I don't know if I can be in the same class as He Yu.

He Yu didn't know where the gossip came from saying that the announcement was posted today, and he wanted to check it out.

In the morning, Liu Ci was teaching her younger siblings to do their homework, so she didn't go. I didn't expect that she wouldn't go, and neither would He Yu, so they just waited until the afternoon.

"But it's so hot right now."

Liu Ci got up, leaned on the window and said to He Yu.

He Yu's bamboo pole moved forward again, and tapped Liu Ci's shoulder lightly, "Come here, I bought something delicious."

Yanxinglong Lane sounds like an alley, but in fact it is several alleys together. He Yu's house is on No. 14, and Liu Ci's house is No. [-].Just opposite, the alley is very narrow, the house looks like a handshake, the second floor is lingering, He Yu is as light as a swallow, often jumps up, jumps in from the window of Liu Ci's room, and copies Liu Ci's homework.

Liu Ci glanced at the road below and shook his head.

He Yu pouted, "Don't you dare, it will save you trouble."

It's quite easy. Their homes are all on the second floor, and the first floor is someone else's home. It's inconvenient to go up and down every time. There are no public stairs, and you can't see them when you look up. Besides, there are two mahjong tables downstairs. , usually some dubious people come here.

At this time, the sound of the mahjong machine could be heard. Thinking of the smell of second-hand smoke, Liu Ci suddenly became a little annoyed. It might have been caused by those cloze questions. It gave her courage to step on the table for the first time and go to He Yu Jump over there.

In fact, it was just a little more than an arm's length away. He Yu was very happy to see Liu Ci's death-like attitude. The front strands of her hair were not tied up, and the whiskers of cockroaches were hanging down. She laughed like a monkey and was glared at by Liu Ci. With one glance, he hurriedly said, "It's definitely all right."

The window on He Yu's side is quite big. At this moment, the window door is wide open. Liu Ci closed his eyes, leaped, and really jumped over. He Yu hugged his waist and put him in the room. The movement of this person closing the window and pulling the curtains Well done, He Yu opened his eyes and hadn't recovered from the glare of the sun, and came to the cool room again.

He Yu's house turned on the air conditioner.

The room was a bit dark, He Yu's curtains were off-white, with a few flowers embroidered on them, the light couldn't come in, and they turned into hazy shadows.

"Here," He Yu's room is very small, with a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe, all gone.

Unlike Liu Ci's family, which has a large population and needs to rent three rooms, her house only has two rooms, one for her and one for her parents. The kitchen and toilets here are public anyway, and the population is very mobile, so thieves don't know if they come here.

The soda can was opened, and with a bang, Liu Ci smelled the smell of beer. She glanced at the milk beer He Yu handed over, "You're crazy! You're still drinking..."

He Yu snorted, "You don't want to drink?"

Liu Ci found several bottles on the ground, "Where did you come from?"

"When I delivered food to my mother at noon, I dropped by to draw a prize, and I won the draw. Anyway, my father should not come home this month, and my mother doesn't drink it. Of course, I drank it myself."

He Yu fell on the bed, rolled around twice, raised his leg and kicked Liu Ci, "Don't pretend, you obviously want to drink too."

Liu Ci ignored her and took a sip cautiously.

Beer belongs to grown-ups, and it's not like she hasn't bought beer for her parents before. She went to the canteen at Dongxiangkou and bought a bottle of Snow Beer for [-] yuan. She had to take back the bottle of beer she drank before.

The taste of beer was a bit crying, she drank milk beer for the first time, and the freshness surged up, she took every sip, and when He Yu sat up, she had already drank half a can.

"No way," He Yu scratched his head, "You can do it with a small wine bottle."

Liu Ci's nickname was given to him by He Yu, who has a cheap mouth, and has been hated by others since he was a child.

The nickname of the small wine bottle is better than some small glasses. Liu Ci primary school has been short-sighted, and it is caused by doing homework under dim light.She doesn't look like her parents, and she doesn't look like her younger siblings who are like monkeys all day long. She looks like a little girl from a scholarly family.

But her family's ancestors were farmers for three generations, and they became agricultural workers when they came to her father.

"You're the little wine bottle!"

Liu Ci replied, but He Yu said ah, and leaned over with a playful smile, "What are you talking about, I can't hear you——"

She was wearing a vest, probably because she was too hot, and she didn't even wear underwear. When Liu Ci came over, she felt limp. She was a little embarrassed, moved to the side, and stretched out her hand to grab He Yu's ear. "Stop pretending."

He Yu yelled a few times, and the scream was very watery, "I didn't pretend, I couldn't hear it."

"I'm Little Wine Bottle and you're Little Deaf."

Liu Ci said so.

He Yu touched his ears, "I was originally a deaf person, and you are also a small wine bottle."

He Yu's right ear can't hear, this is a secret, except for He Yu's parents, only Liu Ci knows.

"The little deaf man is carrying a wine bottle to beg for food~"

He Yu hummed a tune and also opened a bottle, puffing out of the bottle, she hurriedly drank it, and finally toasted Liu Ci with a sticky can, "We will go to school later to see."

Liu Ci hummed.

The sun's light passed through the curtains, leaving only a faint light, the room was dim, and there was still the smell of beer.

Liu Ci lay on He Yu's bed, looked at He Yu who was sitting at the desk, and asked, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

He Yu held a pencil in one hand, and wrapped around his hair with his left hand, without looking back, "I'm not sleepy, I can draw."

Liu Ci snorted, "Then call me when you leave."

"You are stupid, will I not call you?"

Then Liu Ci fell asleep until three o'clock, she opened her eyes in a daze, He Yu was still sitting at the table, the curtains were tucked away by her, just enough for her to draw.

He Yu was a head taller than Liu Ci. The two of them were born in Yanxinglong Lane and grew up here. They were inseparable since childhood, but they were very different in stature.

It is still the sound of cicadas, the sound of bicycles, and the sound of mahjong.

Liu Ci's glasses were placed on the head of the bed, her vision was blurry, and she felt that He Yu's back seemed to be in a dream, so she lay down for a while, He Yu put down her pen, stretched her waist, and came over to call her .

"Wake up, Liu Ci."

Liu Ci's face was imprinted with the imprint of a mat, she put on her glasses, got off the bed, her shoes were kicked by He Yu once, she was a little angry, "Kick me back."

He Yu let out a long, lazy sound.

"Don't pretend you can't hear me."

He Yu turned around and kicked the shoe over, "Why are you so fierce."

Liu Ci ignored her.

They went downstairs together, and He Yu put the house key into Liu Ci's trouser pocket. The reason was that there was a hole in her trouser pocket, and she had lost five yuan last time.

"You can buy two torches, one for you and one for me."

Liu Ci sat on the back seat of He Yu's bicycle, wearing a hat on his head, "You won't keep it for me."

He Yu didn't hear it, she hummed and sang little love songs, but her voice couldn't hang, as if she was dying.

The 10-minute journey to Chenggao is 10-[-] minutes by bicycle on the main road, but He Yu has been walking around since he was a child, and the road has long been figured out. From Yanxinglong Lane to Dongliushui Lane, he passed a stone arch bridge. , turn a corner and pass through the east entrance of Sanshihu Lane, and you will arrive.

It took 4 minutes, and Liu Ci counted for her by looking at his watch.

He Yu was wearing a blue T-shirt, and her underwear was too hard for her shoulder straps to fall off one side, and she asked Liu Ci to pull it up for her while wiping off her sweat.

Liu Ci wore a black hat, which covered half of his face. He Yu reached out to take it off to fan himself, but he took Liu Ci to walk inside the city height.

The quasi-senior senior has already started to go to school. At the end of August, the singing of cicadas in the school is even heavier.

The guard let them go, and Liu Ci followed He Yu, watching the other party find the place where the announcement was made with incomparable precision, and asked suspiciously, "How do you know?"

He Yu raised his chin, very proud, "I dreamed about it."

Liu Ci thought to himself: I will give you to the cow.

There are several columns of class information on the bulletin board, so Liu Ci and He Yu looked for it together.

In the end, He Yu found it first, "Class Seven!! We are in the same class again, Little Glasses!"

Liu Ci took a look, "If it wasn't because I did it on purpose..."

He Yu covered her mouth, "Okay, stop, that's it, thank you."

Without sincerity, Liu Ci didn't bother to argue with her.

Her grades are actually pretty good. In order not to enter the key class, she made a lot of blank papers. Her parents didn't even know that she was the eldest daughter in the family.

None of this matters.

She hates new things, and He Yu is her childhood friend who will never grow old.

"It feels like there are quite a lot of people in the class," He Yu said on the bike when he went back, "The seats shouldn't be arranged in this row, but in terms of size... Hey, we definitely can't sit together, we count two or two, I'm an odd number , what's the name of the one standing next to me...hey Lian, what the hell...forgot, anyway..."

"Lian Xiaoli."

Liu Ci added.

"Why do you have such a good memory!"

"Because I'm not you."

"You are too much."

……

When I returned to Yanxinglong Lane, there was a traffic jam instead, because there were several tricycles parked, and He Yu dragged the carts with difficulty to pull them in. She looked curiously at the new movers, a family of three, and her neighbor next door.

Liu Ci was not interested at all, so He Yu poked her and gave her a hello.

Liu Ci turned his head, and collided with the girl who happened to run out of it over there.

Liu Ci was thin and small, almost fell down, but was helped by He Yu.

The other party was a girl in a floral dress, her eyes were particularly bright, and she hurriedly apologized.

"I'm sorry, I was in a hurry just now."

Whether the skin is beautiful or not can be seen at a glance. The other party is beautiful, and his eyes are looking at Liu Ci.

"fine."

These two words were said by He Yu.

The other party looked at He Yu, seeming to be a little curious, and blinked for a while longer.

Liu Ci looked at He Yu, then at the girl, feeling a little unhappy for some reason.
