as yesterday

Liu Ci can't tell what's wrong with him, it's just a very endless emotion.

But He Yu seemed to be quite curious, and kept saying on the way back: "The girl just now looks quite good-looking, but the most beautiful girl in this alley is Miss Sijun, ah, of course the prettiest one is Brother Wensheng .”

The brother Wen Sheng that He Yu was talking about was Liu Wensheng, the son of the old Liu's noodle restaurant in Dongxiangkou.

Liu Wensheng is already an adult, but he has been in poor health since he was born. He is always sick. It seems that he has some heart problems.

The Liu family also has a son, Liu Yuansheng, who is about the same age as He Yu and the others, but he didn't get along with him since he was a child. He Yu fought with him since he was a child. Fortunately, it is not a high school, but the high school opposite is not very good.

Liu Ci discovered that He Yute likes to look at faces, and good-looking things always attract her attention immediately, such as beautiful actors on TV, such as who has beautiful hands or faces.

"The girl looks like we are about the same age, and I don't know..."

She spoke eloquently, and Liu Ci didn't want to hear it at all. He Yu didn't get a response after doing stand-up comics for so long, so he lowered his head and leaned over to call out a small wine bottle. Liu Ci ignored her, and happened to be downstairs at their house, Liu Ci They went up, leaving He Yu standing downstairs pulling the bicycle with a dazed expression on his face.

"Angry again? Why?"

When He Yu went back to cook, he still didn't understand what happened to Liu Ci. At night, when her mother came back, she chatted with He Yu amidst the roar of the range hood, "Did you see the new move in next door?"

He Yu leaned against the door frame, biting an apple and lazily hummed. She was wearing denim shorts, but her legs were long and straight, but there were many scars on them.

"Their store should be next door to Liu's house. It's a clothes store."

He Yu snorted, "There really aren't many clothes shops on that street."

Liu Ci's shop is for electrical repairs. Uncle Liu's shop is located in the center of Yanxinglong Lane, including the old Liu's noodle shop. There are many restaurants on that street, and there are also a few small shops selling clothes. Compared with those who sell shoes, it is considered less.

"Are you selling men's or women's clothing?"

He Yu's mother was cooking, and He Yu felt that her mother's cooking could give off the excavator's aura, and the chili fried meat made her cough, so she finally went into the house to serve food.

"How do I know that men's and women's clothing stores aren't open yet?" Hong Lanwen came in with food, she also coughed, and said to He Yu again and again, "I'm choking to death, do you have anything to drink?"

Hong Lanwen works as a salesperson in a supermarket. She has just turned 40 this year and has already started to gain weight like a balloon. She has a very kind-hearted face. He Yu thinks it's because of the mole between her mother's eyebrows, which looks like a bodhisattva.

"You don't drink milk beer, there is iced black tea in the refrigerator."

He Yu pointed, but she started to eat first. She has a special liking for chili fried pork, and so does her mother. Only when her father is not at home can she be so refreshing, because her father doesn't eat spicy food.

"Where is the iced black tea?" The refrigerator is very small, and I still bought it from Liu Ci's father, "I haven't seen it?"

"It's in that mineral water bottle." He Yu bit the meat, squinting his eyes, "What do you think is iced black tea? It's just iced black tea, I made it."

Hong Lanwen sighed, "Where did the black tea dregs come from?"

He Yu raised his chin, "It was given to me by the old man who played the erhu upstairs."

Upstairs lived an old man who lived alone. His only hobby was playing the erhu. He started playing the erhu at five o'clock in the morning. Surprisingly, there were still people willing to learn from him. He Yu felt that the erhu was too sad and not suitable for such a happy person like her. , Liu Ci heard this, saying that she should learn allegro, cross talk is quite fun.

He Yu didn't bother to talk to her.

Her family rented two rooms, and the kitchen is considered semi-public, because the shared rent is a young couple who work on the construction site and rarely come back, so they are basically untouchable.Both her mother and He Yu loved this kind of life. When the small square table was opened, they ate with the setting sun. After work, there was the sound of bicycles rattling back and forth. Occasionally, someone would pass by on a motorcycle.

The person who bought the small glutinous rice cake was a foreigner, and the loudspeaker amplified his amusing accent, causing many children to poke their heads out to watch.

He Yu suddenly remembered that he hadn't finished eating the glutinous rice cakes he bought yesterday, so he took them out of the refrigerator. When Hong Lanwen saw her, he said, "Do you know how to save some for Mom?"

He Yu took a bite of the rice, "I was supposed to give Liu Ci, but Liu Ci said it was too sweet to eat."

"According to your mother or by the way?"

Hong Lanwen's eyebrows were tattooed when she was young. She loves beauty, but she is also frugal, so she didn't mend it anymore. She draws it every day by herself. Unfortunately, the craftsmanship is not very good, and the drawing is too thick, but He Yu doesn't bother to say, I also think her mother is so cute.

"Why did it happen by the way? Am I doing this to you?"

He Yu opened his mouth, and few people in Yanxinglong Lane could speak up to her. Hong Lanwen sighed, "Why are you so good with Liu Ci? That girl didn't even smile when she saw me. "

"She was born with a sad face, you don't know it?"

He Yu picked a piece of moldy tofu from the jar and mixed it with the rice. The rice turned red, and he felt he heard Liu Ci's voice.

Her ears are not very good, but only one ear is weak, and she looks very normal.

"Is Liu Ci here?"

Hong Lanwen looked at the little girl who came over.

Liu Ci called auntie, and put a plate of watermelon in her hand on the table.

"Have you bought watermelon?"

"Dad bought it when he came back. He said it was [-] cents a catty today, which is cheap."

"That's really cheap."

Liu Ci wore a pair of heavy black-rimmed glasses, and her hair was cut very short. He Yu said that she looked like a female student from the Republic of China, and wearing a long gown, the pedantic atmosphere could spread in all directions.

He Yu turned his head, Liu Ci had already put down the watermelon, she was wearing a short sleeve that was washed white, and the English letters on it were all faded, He Yu blinked at her, Liu Ci pulled the corner of his mouth at her, and made a mouth type--

"Hanging face?"

He Yu hurriedly changed the subject, "Have you eaten yet? Do you want to try my mother's fried pork with chili?"

Liu Ci shook his head, "I've eaten and the dishes haven't been washed yet, so I'll go back first."

She walked quickly, her hole shoes squatting on the ground, as if she was wearing a pair of talking sandals.

He Yu sighed, "Liu Ci is so bitter."

She was knocked on the forehead by her mother, "It's none of your business."

He Yu reached out and took a piece of watermelon, "It's a good thing you and Dad didn't have a second life, I might jump off a building with three younger siblings like Liu Ci."

Most of He Yu's generation are only children, and some have brothers and sisters, but they are usually one. Liu Ci's family of six is ​​really rare.

Who made the last child twins?

He Yu actually didn't want to go to Liu Ci's house, it was too noisy, and there was a childish smell, I couldn't tell what it was, anyway, she didn't like it, so she asked Liu Ci to come to her place to be quieter.

"That's because I don't want to give birth!"

Hong Lanwen patted the table with a look of pride, He Yu hurriedly grabbed the chopsticks, so as not to lose them and wash another pair later.

"Yes, yes, thank you, Mom, for saving me trouble."

He Yu thinks this is pretty good. Anyway, she has never worried about whether she will be alone. After all, she grew up in Yanxinglong Lane, and Liu Ci grew up with her. They are a primary school, a junior high school, and a high school soon. Well, it's best to pass the college entrance examination together, and we will always be together in the future.

"Hey, really, I don't want to have a baby at all, why do I have to have a son, right?"

The relationship between Hong Lanwen and He Yu is not like an ordinary mother and daughter. Hong Lanwen has no culture, but he is ahead of his mind in raising He Yu. The raising of He Yu is completely different from that of the Liu family.She knew that He Yu liked to draw, so she had to pay He Yu to learn, buy painting materials, and take summer classes with just a few dollars of salary.He Yu's personality is also like her, straightforward and honest, the mother and daughter are like friends together.

"Yeah, I could be a son too."

Watermelon is very sweet, and He Yu doesn't know if Liu Ci has eaten it. With Liu's conditions, buying two watermelons is the limit. The group of young people waiting to be fed, Liu Ci is the biggest. He is only 15 years old. , Maybe I don’t eat it myself and save it for my younger siblings.

He Yu suddenly felt bored, picked up two of the remaining three yuan to her mother, and put the rest aside.

"Son," Hong Lanwen became a little sad, looking at his stupid daughter, he felt that a man would not be able to marry a wife.

"You are like a son, and my mother will still have a headache for your marriage in the future."

He Yu sighed, "If I were a man, I would marry Liu Ci. I know the roots and the bottom, and the family is right."

It's really well matched, literally.

Hong Lanwen didn't take He Yu's joke to heart, and at this moment he just agreed, "Let's forget about Liu Ci, the situation in her family."

At this age, He Yu still doesn't understand the twists and turns in marriage, "Whatever the situation, our family is not much better."

He was glared at by Hong Lanwen.

He Yu rubbed his nose, "Forget it, I'm not a man anyway, so I can't marry Liu Ci. When she gets married, I will definitely pack a big red envelope."

At this age, He Yu's concept of marriage is only limited to the impression that he attended the wedding banquet with his parents a few times. He only thought it was silly to greet guests at the door in a wedding dress, and it was even more strange to change it to Liu Ci.

Who can marry Liu Ci, that man must have a good mental quality.

"Think about yourself, you are not allowed to fall in love in high school, your grades are not good enough, even though you are studying art..."

"Stop it, that's enough, that's it."

He Yu hurriedly paused, "It doesn't matter if you really study well and fall in love. Don't worry, I will never cause you trouble. I will definitely study hard, draw well, and get admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts."

Hong Lanwen snorted, and took a piece of the fattest meat for her daughter, "Come on, mom will work hard to save money for your tuition."

He Yu washed the dishes and went upstairs, and opened Liu Ci's curtains with a bamboo pole as usual. Liu Ci was not in the room. He Yu lay on the table, staring at Liu Yu, "Where's your sister?"

Liu Yu had just graduated from elementary school at this time, the child had a bulging face, and his hair was longer than Liu Ci, and he said honestly: "I went to take a bath for my younger brothers and sisters."

He Yu snorted, "Why don't you help your sister?"

The youngest twins of the Liu family are only four years old this year, and it was the most annoying time. He Yu saw Liu Ci feeding the two little ones, it was like a typhoon passing through.

"My sister said she could."

"Has your sister ever eaten watermelon?"

He Yu asked.

Liu Yu thought for a while, then shook her head, "My sister said she doesn't like it."

He Yu thought she was right to keep a plate, she reached out and passed the plate over, and said: "You are not allowed to steal it, I left it for your sister."

After she finished speaking, she jumped in by herself, knowing that the adults of the Liu family would come back very late at night, and Liu Ci probably took the two of them to Uncle Liu's shop after bathing the children.

Liu Yu has long been used to He Yu's frequent visits. In her heart, He Yu is a cool big sister, even though she is as old as her own sister.But He Yu looks more playful, and occasionally brings a group of little ones to play marbles, either jumping grid or turning rope, she knows too many tricks, and children like her.

Liu Ci was exhausted after taking a bath for his younger siblings, so he changed the children's clothes in the parents' room, wanting Liu Yu to take a look and change himself, but when he opened the door, he found He Yu sitting on her bed, Liu Yu was happily talking to her.

Liu Ci: "Why are you here?"

He Yu grinned with big white teeth, "I'll take you to your father's place later."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to bring up the watermelon, "I left it for you, do you know how kind I am to you?"

Liu Ci pulled out a smiling face, "How about some face?"
