overpass

Unexpectedly, adolescence is a period of high incidence of mental illness, and then I checked it online.

Damn, it's completely wrong!Shi Lei's eyes were blurred, and his lunch break was over.Shi Lei suddenly realized that perhaps Li Xiang was much healthier than he thought.

In the evening, those who work leave work and those who get out of school leave school.The soul that has been bound for a day finally gets personal freedom. People are eager to recover their energy. Some people need carnival, and some people need tranquility.

After dinner, Shi Lei and Li Xiang went downstairs for a walk together. Li Xiang especially loved the fish in the pool in the community, and often stopped suddenly while walking to watch the fish.Shi Lei didn't care about him, and continued to walk on his own, and when he had walked enough, he would come back and bring Li Xiang, and they went home together.

Shi Lei sat on the sofa reading a book, and Li Xiang also read a book together.But Li Xiang doesn't like words at all, he often holds books and wanders away.

Shi Lei looked at him sideways: "What are you thinking?"

"I won't tell you."

"Then what have you been painting these days?"

"Keep it secret." Li Xiang didn't say anything, and Shi Lei didn't ask.Shi Lei just wanted to have a few words with Li Xiang, and after finishing talking, continue reading.

"Don't you really want to know?" Li Xiang narrowed his eyes, observing Shi Lei's face.

Shi Lei moved the book away from his eyes: "Then do you want to say it or not?"

"Forget it, I still don't want to tell you!"

puberty!

Ever since Shi Lei defined Li Xiang as a neurotic adolescent in his heart, he suddenly felt that all of Li Xiang's weird behaviors could be explained.

"elder brother."

"Huh?" Shi Lei snorted as an answer.

"elder brother?"

"Speak quickly if you have something to say."

"elder brother!"

Shi Lei put the book down: "If you keep talking, I'll cut you off."

"Oh, brother, I think, I'll go to work!"

"Part-time job? Why?" Shi Lei tempted, intending to listen to Li Xiang first.

"Make money!"

"and then?"

"In this way, I can buy paintbrushes and cook for you." Li Xiang's wish is so simple.

"Actually, work is not just for making money. Take your favorite painting as your job, and then make money. It doesn't necessarily mean tarnishing your ideals. It's like" Shi Lei thought about a suitable metaphor "surgeon, he I may like it very much to have a perfect and successful operation, but in the process, he not only achieved his own interest, but also helped others, and made money. In other words, you can achieve What do you think about earning some money while you are interested?" He asked Li Xiang with his eyes.

Li Xiang shook his head and nodded again.

In Li Xiang's innocent feelings, he has never thought about so many problems in real life, and no one has told him these things, so now he feels full of doubts.

"Besides, working part-time is not a long-term solution." Shi Lei said what he thought about Li Xiang. "Why don't you go to school?"

Li Xiang frowned all of a sudden.

"Listen to me first, you know, I'm just a suggestion. In fact, when you go to school, I think learning knowledge is secondary. In this process, you will become mature and it is most necessary. You can find that you really like career, learn to face life, broaden your horizons, meet like-minded friends, etc., etc., there are some things that you need to discover by yourself.” “It’s a very relaxed and simple place, you plan to try Try? I'll support you."

What Shi Lei said earlier was not very clear to Li Xiang, but it sounded reasonable, and it just made Li Xiang admire it.However, the last sentence is touching.

With bright eyes and a joyful expression, Li Xiang faced Shi Lei: "Brother, I tell myself every day that I am so lucky because I met you."

Shi Lei thought he was used to Li Xiang's attention, however.Shi Lei turned his head silently, picked up the book, cut off Li Xiang's gaze, and wondered in his heart: Is it possible that people with a lot of art can speak so affectionately and literaryly?

☆, board the telescope (2)

That night, Li asked that fanciful heart.Immediately, I feel that life is bright and the road ahead is broad, and I wish I could go to school right away.But it's only July, and school has just been out for vacation.After the two discussed, Li Xiang insisted on going to work, to be like Shi Lei, to be a warrior who faces life directly.Shi Lei couldn't laugh or cry, are there so many terrible things in life?Just a little tired.

Then you can go directly to the third year of high school and apply for the exam as an art specialty student.For this reason, Li Xiang also found out his ID card from a certain corner of his backpack. Shi Lei looked at it and joked, "Yo, you sold yourself."

Li Xiang corrected slightly angrily: "It's honesty, not prostitution."

Shi Lei didn't know where he touched Li Xiang's romantic idealism again.So he decided not to speak, so as not to get angry and have to coax the child again.

The two have submitted many resumes online in the past few days.According to Shi Lei's instructions, it's best to find someone who is close to art, don't expect to make a lot of money, the main thing is to be able to see the direction of future work.And Li Xiangting belonged to Shi Lei.However, resumes are like sinking into the sea.

Over the weekend, an outdoor association that Shi Lei joined announced an event.As soon as a few people ventilated, everyone wanted to go out and play.

After returning home, Shi Lei asked Li Xiang for his opinion.

"You want to go? I thought you had enough camping?"

"I like nature." Li Xiang was holding Shi Lei's computer, still looking at the recruitment information, "Brother, why don't I go to work part-time, I really want to work now."

"Well, decide for yourself." Shi Lei stood in front of the window smoking a cigarette, and suddenly turned his head, "Aren't you right? Why are you asking me everything now?"

"Hey!" He replied with a smirk instead.

The weather on the weekend was fine. I took a bus from the urban area, crossed the city, and arrived in the suburbs. I walked from the cement road to the dirt road, and drove for more than an hour.Finally arrived at the place, got out of the car, a group of men and women began to take pictures, and Li Xiang rushed out directly, feeling too motion sick.

Where they arrived, there was a yellow cliff and a gentle hillside sandwiching a clear river from a long distance, and the pebbles under the water were clearly visible.It was already afternoon when they arrived, the sun was bright and the sky was blue.The ubiquitous sunlight seems to illuminate every place on the ground.

Li Xiang flew ten meters away, as if he could leave the smell of the car and the dizziness behind.After he settled down, Li Xiang took off his shoes and socks, and walked slowly on the hot stones with his bare feet. What he saw was the vast sky, and the undulating mountains in the distance turned into a light shadow, while the wind in the wilderness He stroked his cheek just right.

On the way here, Shi Lei talked with friends from the association about life and work in the city along the way.Shi Lei, a rational non-communicator, wanted to leave a long time ago; but he didn't want to save face, so he persisted until now.Shi Lei got out of the car and looked around. Usually, he and Qin Haiyang would avoid the crowd and chat together.After all, the more people there are, the more empty and superficial the words will be.However, now Qin Haiyang was mixing with Xu Jiao, and instead, Shi Lei saw Li Xiang alone.For a simple multiple-choice question, Shi Lei walked towards Li Xiang.

At night, Shi Lei and Li Xiang huddled together in a two-person tent.Li Xiang played all afternoon and was already sleepy. The moment his head touched the pillow, he entered a state of blur.But he still kept his spirits up and said the last sentence: "Brother, alarm clock." Then it entered the shutdown state.

Shi Lei played with his mobile phone for a while, and recalled the feeling of walking on the stone in the afternoon, it was a little hot, and his feet hurt, just like a massage, and he planned to recommend it to Qin Haiyang next time.

"Brother." Li Xiang sat next to Shi Lei and called him softly.

Shi Lei turned on his phone: 03:30.It is too early!If he could, he wished he could continue to sleep.

"Brother, let's go watch the sunrise." Li Xiang was still calling him.

Shi Lei sat up after thinking about it, thinking about lying to the child, it seems not very good.

There was already a little light outside, and the two of them didn't turn on the lights. They put on their clothes carefully, opened the tent, and went out.

The cool morning mist is still crawling on the ground, and crystal dewdrops are quietly forming.Except for the sound of sand and stones under their feet and the sound of wooden branches, neither of them spoke.

Li Xiang walked ahead, looking back at Shi Lei from time to time.With a calm face and clear eyes, Shi Lei recalled the name "Cheng Che" on Li Xiang's ID card, and it really lived up to his name.

After walking for a while, a little sunlight has come, hitting the treetops, and the top of the head is bright.Shi Lei felt that every step he took was like getting closer to the sun.

Standing on the hill, the mountains, fog, trees, and sun, under the reflection of the morning light, outline a picture with clear layers and blurred colors.

"Brother, are you happy?"

Shi Lei thought about it seriously, "The scenery is so beautiful and the sunshine is good." Taking a deep breath, "Even the taste is good." Nodding his head, "Happy."

"Seeing you walking so happily on the stone yesterday, I knew you would like it." The smile on Li Xiang's lips was expanding. "So, are you moved?"

Shi Lei realized that Li Xiang's expression was abnormal, so he decided to keep silent.

"Brother, do you want to carry me down the mountain?"

Brother, my leg hurts.

Brother, my foot hurts.

Brother, I'm going to faint from hunger.

☆, board the telescope (3)

A few days later, when Shi Lei came home in the evening, Li Xiang excitedly told him that he had found a job, a goods manager in a supermarket, a temporary worker, and went to work the next day.

Before leaving, Shi Lei asked if he needed to take him there, Shi Lei was worried that he would not find his way, and also worried that he would not get along with others.Li Xiang made an "OK" gesture, expressing that everything was at ease, and trotted all the way to take the bus.

It was a young man in uniform who greeted Li Xiang to work. He was of medium height and thin, with a very gentle voice, but with a slight accent.

He patiently taught him the usual work content, when you can take a break, when you need to shift shifts, who to contact if you have a problem, and so on. Li Xiang wrote down one by one, "Thank you, Brother Liu."

Li Xiang used to think that work was a painful thing, but now it seems that it is not as imagined.Moreover, the people around him are still very enthusiastic. They not only teach him anytime and anywhere, but also take him to eat at noon, and the day passes quickly.

The only thing that gave Li Xiang a headache was the music played all day in the supermarket and the constant noise of people coming and going.A person with a keen sense like Li Xiang is naturally very sensitive to noise.

Occasionally, Shi Lei would take the initiative to ask Li Xiang about his work, and Li Xiang's answer would always be that everything was fine, so Shi Lei didn't ask any more questions.Li Xiang found that people seemed to be full of curiosity about new things, and then, when the curiosity dissipated, the enthusiasm that followed also dissipated.And this new thing naturally refers to himself who has just arrived.But it's better this way, it's rare to be free, after all, the joyful and lively atmosphere may not be suitable for everyone.

In the cafeteria, a group of people at the next table couldn't tell whether they were joking or arguing.

"Sister Ting, I'll give you this piece of pork. How about I lose weight?" Wang Lili is coquettish, she is really a beauty, she has a good figure, can dress and make up, and she is a salesperson in their supermarket.

"I'm still afraid of getting fat, so I don't eat."

"It's okay, you're fat anyway." After forcing a piece of meat onto Sister Ting's dinner plate, there was a series of triumphant laughter.

Li Xiang frowned, listening to the clear noises, now Li Xiang hadn't taken a nap, hadn't finished eating, and an inexplicable disgust was brewing in his heart.And all this finally made him feel very uncomfortable.

clang clang

After a few crisp metal clashes, Li Xiang first saw the spoons and dinner plates appearing on the table.Looking up, there is a big boy, tall, strong but not fat, wearing a pair of metal full-rim glasses, and his face seems to be smiling all the time.

"What are you thinking about? I don't eat actively, and I have problems with my thinking."

"Zhou Zhou."

Zhou Zhou gobbled it up first: "I'm starving to death, why is there no meat in the food in the cafeteria!"

Li Xiang casually gave him his clip.

"That's not what I meant." Zhou Zhou scratched his head in embarrassment.

Zhou Zhou was only one year older than Li Xiang, and had just finished the college entrance examination. However, after looking at his scores, he couldn't even pass an ordinary undergraduate course.When the house is on fire, I feel uncomfortable.He simply came out to work, and he found a job on his own initiative that earned a lot of money, but it was also tiring.I work with a group of adults in their 30s and [-]s every day, carrying goods.This job itself is tiring, plus the body is still growing, so it's no wonder that I'm not hungry.

Li Xiang returned home wearily, he missed Shi Lei's quiet living room very much, changed his slippers quietly, fell down on the sofa without saying a word.

Shi Lei looked funny: "Want to drink water?"

Shaking his head: "Eat first."

Shi Lei's culinary skills still haven't made much progress, he cooked a pot of rice for the first time, and also fried two dishes, one meat and one vegetable, as nourishment for adolescent children.After finishing the meal, I handed it to Li Xiang: "The school is done. In the eleventh middle school, it is a bit far away from home, but your situation is special, and it happens to be where my classmates are."

"Ah."

"School starts in September."

"Yes." Li Xiang nodded in agreement.

"Brother, do you like Brother Haiyang?"

"What do you say, I don't like being friends." Shi Lei sat opposite Li Xiang.

"Oh, so are you arguing?" Li Xiang stirred the rice in the bowl.

"No noise." Shi Lei felt that this topic was developing in a strange direction. "Why, did you quarrel with your colleagues?"

"No."

"Then do you have any new friends who plan to bring home to play?"

"Why do I feel like you are talking like a father?" Li Xiang stopped Shi Lei's speculation in a timely manner.

"I'm so old, Qin Haiyang still said that we are like brothers!" Shi Lei took a bite of the meat first, and happily informed that "it's ready to eat."

"Brother Haiyang has no brothers, so what he said is unbelievable."

"Why so much nonsense, I'll take you to my house to play when I have time." "By the way, have you ever thought about going back to your house?"

"No." Li Xiang answered simply and neatly.

After eating the last bite of food, Li Xiang touched his slightly swollen stomach and got up to wash the dishes.Shi Lei had already finished his meal and lay down on the sofa to rest.

When Li Xiang came over, he opened his eyes and asked, "Tired recently?"

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about it at all, I'm very good." After saying this nonsense, Li Xiang nodded for himself, as if doing so would make his words more credible.

"Have you grown taller recently?"

"Really?" Li Xiang also imitated Shi Lei and sat on the sofa, the two of them each occupied a corner, Shi Lei read and Li Xiang drew, "Why didn't you go out for a stroll today?"

"Seeing that you're not interested, I'm a little too lazy to move." Shi Lei didn't take his eyes off the book either.

With the rustling sound of the pencil, after a while, a painting was born from Li Xiang's pen, and it was thrown to Shi Lei in the air.

Shi Lei looked at me, "Me? Why do I feel a bit like you?"

"I drew, of course there will be my shadow, but well, what I drew is you."

Seeming to be in a good mood, Li Xiang jumped off the sofa after speaking, set up his drawing board beside him, and went to draw.

Li Xiang's current life can be said to be two points and one line, and he is getting better at work, but Li Xiang is starting to feel bored because he does the same thing every day.So he turned his interest elsewhere, and Li Xiang began to observe the colleagues around him.

Although their behavior often makes Li Xiang feel incomprehensible, it also opens the door to a new world.Of course, there are some things that I don't like, and they are really annoying.

Many times, the people around a person are just a projection of his character; just like Li Xiang's paintings, his paintings will inevitably resemble himself.The same is true for the people around Li Xiang. People who like to admire and look good will stay, and those who don't like will be shaved off one by one.

After a busy morning, he stretched comfortably. His overalls were a little hot. Li Xiang unbuttoned two buttons and was about to drink water.His mind was thinking that today is Saturday, is Shi Lei at home or out shopping?

Li Xiang watched as Du Wenwen was moving things there. A little girl was carrying two boxes as wide as her.

"I'll do it." Li Xiang went over to hold his hand.

"Hey, thank you, little brother, just put it over there." The thing had just been put down.

"Xiao Li, come and help me." A voice was not high, but very penetrating.

"Understood Brother Liu, here we come."

It turned out that the goods had arrived, but there were not enough porters, so we called everyone to help temporarily.

There were several complaints from the side, but Li Xiang turned a deaf ear and went to work directly.I also saw Zhou Zhou in the middle, with sweat dripping down his forehead, but he still greeted Li Xiang cheerfully.

A group of people were at a loss, and the work was finished quickly. Brother Liu stood aside and said thank you, and the colleagues next to him joked that it would be better to have a holiday, or a salary increase would be fine.After laughing for a while, Brother Liu couldn't hold it anymore, and compromised and said to find time to sing together.

But after all, the promise is not as tempting as the fulfillment. Everyone will let him go, and the final decision is today.Moreover, the originally gloomy working atmosphere instantly became lively.Li Xiang felt that it was a novelty, so he made a phone call with Shi Lei, and followed him.

In the KTV, through the door, Li Xiang could hear heart-piercing roars from different rooms. Yes, that sound was definitely not beautiful.

When he himself was on the scene, Li Xiang felt even more troubled listening to his colleagues' beastist singing methods.Moreover, under the influence of alcohol, people who usually don't seem to be in harmony with each other can actually put on a smile and make a toast and joke.When he was drunk for the third time, Li Xiang evaded and ran away.

☆、Climbing and looking into the distance (4)

Du Wenwen ran out to see him off: "Haha, you are such a kid. How about it, you and I didn't drink too much, do you need me to see you off?"

Li Xiang shook his hands and declined: "No, Sister Wenwen, I can do it."

"Really? Don't be shy. How about I call your brother."

Li Xiang thought to himself, girls really worry a lot, if Shi Lei wouldn't ask a second time. "No, I can do it myself."

Li Xiang went home, but Shi Lei didn't read on the sofa today, so he knocked on the bedroom door.

After a long time, Shi Lei came out, his clothes were messed up, his face was still flushed, and his breath was not stable.I poured myself a glass of cool water and said, "I'm back so early."

"I don't like that environment, the sound is so loud that my heart is about to jump out." Li Xiang also followed to the kitchen.

"Drink water?" Shi Lei shook the cup in his hand.

Li Xiang nodded, and Shi Lei poured Li Xiang another glass.

"Hey, bro, what's the smell on you?"

Shi Lei put down the cup calmly, with a calm face: "It's not smelly, I'll take a shower first."

"It doesn't mean you're in a hurry to take a bath?" Li Xiangyao turned the cup in his hand, watched the water in it swirl, and heard the water in it turning.

Shi Lei made a quick decision, came out with a towel on his head, saw that Li Xiang had already taken his place on the sofa, raised his foot and kicked: "Go to your side."

Li Xiang sat up, turned around, and fell down again.

Shi Lei patted his feet, "Come on, raise your feet high, it's almost reaching my head."

Li Xiang curled up his legs as he was ordered, and retracted his feet.

"you've been drinking?"

"Well, brother, why do you think they drink each other?"

"What do you think?" Shi Lei adjusted his posture, trying to make himself more comfortable.

"I think, there is nothing to say, so I can only drink."

"Hmm." Shi Lei found this idea quite interesting.

"It's like," Li Xiang muttered: "A lover who has no feelings will keep sexting. Parents who have no feelings for their children will keep spending money on their children."

"I used to have a friend. His mother liked playing mahjong very much, and sometimes she forgot to cook for him. So she always bought him expensive gifts, but his wish of a bicycle was never realized. Later , His family even hired a tutor for him, and his mother knew that the tutor was not good, so she kept spending money, as if it would make her feel better." After finishing speaking, Li Xiang sighed. "Why is this so?"

"You're right, or it's one aspect. Most of the time, money is just a way of expressing feelings, and it can't be used to measure. However, there are many reasons for drinking. Your brother Haiyang is an alcoholic. If he hears If you arrange him like this, you must be repaired."

"Hey." Li Xiang lay on his side on his hair, looked at Shi Lei and started to giggle.

Li Xiang suddenly stood up from the sofa, went to the kitchen, and came back: "Oh, did you see the carrot I put on the windowsill in the kitchen?"

"The half you mentioned, and the one standing on the white porcelain plate?" Shi Lei was full of doubts.

"exactly."

"I," Shi Lei didn't know why he was so excited, "put it in the refrigerator"

"Uh," Li Xiang exclaimed, "That's my potted plant!"

When Shi Lei heard this, he stood up and walked towards the refrigerator. He threw it away when he put it in, and was careful when he took it out.Shi Lei held the plate in both hands, with no shame on his face, and handed it to Li Xiang: "Give it back to you."

Looking at the "potted plant" that was breathing a little bit of cold air, Li Xiang looked at Shi Lei reproachfully: "This is life."

Shi Lei shrugged indifferently, "Why didn't you talk about it while eating?"

Li Xiang looked at Carrot with distressed expression: "Will he survive strong?"

"The fresh-keeping layer, the temperature is not very low, the plants should be able to bear it."

"It's really lifeless." Li Xiang smacked his lips. "I declare that there is no cure for you."

"Brat." Shi Lei turned back to the living room without arguing.

On Sunday, Li Xiang still went to work.The indulgent people at night returned to the appearance that outsiders are accustomed to during the day.Supermarkets on weekends are when there are many people, especially after the afternoon, the checkout exit is overcrowded.

Li Xiang and Du Wenwen worked together, and Li Xiang inadvertently saw a figure flash by, but he didn't seem to see it.

"Sister Wenwen, like this, you look at it first, I left something behind, I'll go find it, okay?"

"Well, go., no problem."

Li Xiang turned around a few rows of shelves, and sure enough, he saw that figure again, a tightly dressed girl with fat clothes wrapped from head to toe.Walking up and down, wandering aimlessly alone, and there is no trolley beside him.There seemed to be nothing wrong, but Li Xiang felt familiar with her gaze.

"Little sister, do you need help?"

The little girl gave her a vigilant look, "No need." Turning around, she walked in the other direction, and her steps became faster.Immediately, the outline of the thing wrapped in the clothes was revealed.

"But you need to remember to check out, what's in your clothes." Li Xiang followed her and reminded softly.

The girl gave him an annoyed look, then shook her clothes violently.Out of it came a bag of bread, the most common kind.Throwing it back angrily: "It's alright!"

Li Xiang picked it up, quickly found ten yuan from the pocket of his jeans, stacked them together, and chased after him again.The girl's terrified expression came to an abrupt end when she saw the bread and money.

"Give it to you, if you need it." At this time, Li Xiang was sincere, with eyes that seemed to be full of emotion, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth inadvertently.

The girl said softly, "Crazy." But she still took the things slowly.

Then, Li Xiang was dismissed, and Liu Ge still gently explained the reason for his dismissal. An employee who knew a thief may become a major hidden danger to the company's interests, and the duty of a manager is to completely eliminate this possibility.Li Xiang looked at Brother Liu's meticulous uniform and didn't make any excuses.

After Shi Lei went out and came back, he found Li Xiangzheng nestled on the sofa with a book on his stomach, the window was open, and the breeze was blowing.

"get off work?"

"Brother, I was fired."

"Yeah." Shi Lei was as indifferent as always, went to drink a sip of water, and then returned to Li Xiang's side. "Exactly, school is about to start anyway. What's the matter? Is it important?"

"It's nothing serious, it's okay not to say it. Brother, what do you think, huh?" Li Xiang was stuck.

"What's the matter, don't hesitate." Shi Lei put down the cup in his hand.

"Actually, I saw a thief today, but I let her go and bought her something."

Shi Lei still nodded, as if nothing would surprise him too much.

"Brother, do you discriminate against them? What kind of person do you think is? Brother, what is your mentality when you meet me for the first time?"

Shi Lei crossed his chest and looked back at him, a little funny and helpless: "You plan to let me answer that first?"

"Forget it, don't say anything." Li Xiang suddenly leaned his head on Shi Lei's arm. He knew that Shi Lei would give him a perfect answer, and it would sound reasonable, but he often listened to I don't understand, and I don't want to hear it now.

☆, Waking of Insects (1)

Shi Lei was a little dazed, his arms stiffened, and suddenly he didn't know what he should do.

Li Xiang still lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "I once met a sister before. She was in her early 20s, but she looked like 30. Her skin was withered and yellow, her hair was as dry as grass, and The smell of cigarettes is worse than yours every day."

Shi Lei ignored the slander, and still listened to Li Xiang's nonchalant words.

"Every night I put on the most gaudy clothes and stand in the corner of the street like a shining flag." Li Xiang still spoke in a narrating tone. "He also has a big brother, who is actually a hooligan who forces her to fuck every day, and the money he earns will be taken away by that man. And this kind of life began when she was a teenager. At that time, she had just When she started to go out to work, she always didn't know why she received that strange look from others. She couldn't figure it out. She also spent her energy every day to make money, but she would be first-class than others. She had never been educated, She has never known the meaning and beauty of sex. She can let customers who pay money touch every part of his body, but there is one place she can't, and that is her forehead." "Because, that is her mother, A place of constant kisses."

When he heard Li Xiang's intermittent words at the end, Shi Lei felt even more at a loss. He raised his other hand blankly and stroked Li Xiang's hair slowly. He didn't know what to say, and he didn't want to use simple words A few words to evaluate other people's lives, and I don't know whether I should speak or not.

Li Xiang looked up at him, Shi Lei thought he would cry or be sad, but Li Xiang didn't, Shi Lei didn't know what kind of emotion was in his clear eyes.Li Xiang let out a deep breath, Shi Lei carefully looked at his face, watching him slowly recover his previous expression.

The days of August are still full of summer.In addition to shopping together during the holidays, Li Xiang and Shi Lei also have another activity, which is to take a walk together.Not far from his home, there is a park built next to the mountain, which the locals call Houshan for short.Before entering the door, Li Xiang bought ice cream again, but Shi Lei didn't eat it, he thought it was something children would like to eat.

The scenery here is good, the air is very good, a road around the mountain gradually goes up along the mountain, and the top of the mountain overlooks half of the city.There are quite a few people on the road, most of them are chatting and climbing the mountain in pairs.There are also many children, running around and chasing each other non-stop.

Li Xiang looked at the tree for a while, and the grass for a while. He had eaten up all the ice cream in his hand, and now he was holding a handful of melon seeds, eating while walking.From time to time, I would run into the crowd of children and run around with them, completely ignoring the sight of others.When a child looked at Li Xiang inquiringly, Li Xiang would hand out melon seeds: "Baby, can you eat it?"

The child licked the melon seeds, salty, pee pee pee, and spat it out again, all over Li Xiang. The grandma next to the child hurried up to comfort him, but Li Xiang naturally didn't care.

"Brother, look at those two pine trees."

Shi Lei followed his fingers and extended his sight, all were pine trees: "Which two?"

"That's it," Li Xiang began to describe, "Look, when he is alone, he grows straight upward; but when he is two people, the two branches will merge and contain each other, and grow together. grow."

Shi Lei saw that they were two pine trees of the same species, and in the grove, each tree grew upwards to the maximum extent.One of them was inserted straight into the sky; while the other branched in the middle of its growth. The two branches were no longer straight and curved, but the curved shape was consistent with convex and concave.

Shi Lei, who is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, naturally knew that it was the effect of auxin in plants, but he was still infected by Li Xiang's smile.What is he laughing at, Li Xiang's ignorance, innocence, or romance?

Li Xiang was naturally very happy when he was living at home. He studied new dishes, drew pictures, read books, traveled far and wide, and fiddled with his potted plants every day.The kitchen landscape has begun to take shape, and the previous half of the carrot survived. On top of this, Li Xiang added a sweet potato, two bamboo shoots, and a handful of garlic sprouts. These little lives are growing with each passing day. Li Xiang likes to observe them.

Sometimes Li Xiang would go back and try to find the cat, but it had disappeared without a trace.Li Xiang thought to himself, probably just like those people he met before and the roads he traveled, meeting is fate, and parting is inevitable.

On the first day of school, Shi Lei asked him if he wanted to see him off by himself, Li Xiang nodded: "Brother, then you can send me there." Shi Lei simply asked for a day off, bought a new schoolbag, and a few pens.

Li Xiang is looking forward to it, hoping that this is a new beginning.

☆, Waking of Insects (2)

Li Xiang is looking forward to it, hoping that this is a new beginning.In the school, the active playground, flying red flags, and scattered teaching buildings made Li Xiang feel familiar and strange.Shi Lei walked side by side with Li Xiang, he couldn't see Li Xiang's condition, so he spoke directly.

"I went to school before? How do you feel now?"

"Yeah, it feels very interesting. Before, when I escaped from school, I never thought that I would continue to go to school. I thought I would not like it, but I think it is very good now." Li Xiang touched the small tree beside the road leaves. "Also, tomorrow will be fine."

Shi Lei listened to what he said, then turned his head to look at Li Xiang'an's expression, and realized that maybe Li Xiang should go out of his own way.
