The first thing Jiang Yu did after receiving his salary was to go to the supermarket to buy the 258 hairy crabs.

At the beginning, he thought that he would buy them when he was rich. Although he is not rich now, it feels strange to buy these two hairy crabs with the first money he earned.Jiang Yu conveniently took two boxes of candies to pay the bill, and after paying the money, his salary was cut by more than half in an instant, and he didn't feel distressed.

Riding a bicycle and turning into the alley, Jiang Yu didn't go home, so he went directly to Zi Luo.

He put the bag behind his back and looked around to make sure that the elder was not at home before he was relieved.Sitting at the desk, Zi Luo had already seen him sneaking into the yard. The sound of his footsteps was getting closer, and he saw Jiang Yu poking his head in.

Zi Shi couldn't help smiling at him now: "What are you doing?"

"Look." Jiang Yu handed the bag in front of his eyes, "You go and eat, I won't."

Opening the bag and taking a look, Zi Luo saw the two hairy crabs in a daze for a while, then looked up at him: "That boy gave it?"

"No, I bought it myself, and I paid my salary today."

Zi Luo: "Ah."

Jiang Yu dragged him to the kitchen: "Although it's not much, this is the first money I've earned by myself."

"It's expensive, right?" Zi Luo said behind him. "Actually, you can buy something else, or go out to eat. You can keep the money for yourself."

Jiang Yu turned to look at him: "That's different."

He didn't intend to explain too much: "I'll save the money for next month, let's be presumptuous today."

Xie Xiao'an and Zi Chengmin came back a bit late, Jiang Yu and Zi Luo quietly finished eating the hairy crabs in the room, which made their hands smell fishy, ​​they went straight to the bathroom, squeezed the hand sanitizer and rubbed them back and forth.

Opening the box of candies, Jiang Yu stuffed one into Zi Luo's mouth.

Zi Luo bit the candy between his lips and teeth, took out his phone and tapped a few times, and Jiang Yu clearly heard the sound of the money arriving in his account.

He turned on his phone in a daze, and found that Zi Luo had transferred him a sum of money, which was not a small amount.

Jiang Yu was stunned and turned to look at him: "What is this?"

"I'm getting paid too." Zi Luo, with pear-flavored candy wrapped in his mouth, approached him and smiled, "I'll keep it for you."

"...No, why give it to me, you keep it for yourself." Jiang Yu glanced at the numbers again, "Did you give me all the money?"

Zi Luo thought for a while, and said truthfully, "I kept some."

Jiang Yu looked at him, speechless for a moment: "I remembered the cash machine that Aunt Xie mentioned..."

The sky outside the window was about to get dark, and the lights in the room were reflected in the pupils of the two of them. Zi Luo's eyes were bright, and he smiled happily watching him.

Jiang Yu and him looked at each other for a while, reached out to hug his neck, leaned forward to kiss, the tip of the tongue caught the candy, bent it and rolled it into the mouth, moved it away, raised his eyebrows at him successfully, and took out another candy and stuffed it in He said: "In the future, my money will also be saved together, and I will not spend it randomly."

The autumn leaves are deep yellow and fall with the wind. The road sanitation workers in the morning swept the fallen leaves on both sides of the road. A gust of wind blew by. A few leaves floated to the middle of the road, and a few stayed in front of a bicycle.

Jiang Yu got out of the car and picked up a few ginkgo leaves, which were golden and glistened in the sun.

When he arrived at school, he used the fallen leaves as bookmarks, and turned around to give Zi Luo a piece.

The pile of books in front of me was very high, the class was silent even though there was no teacher present, the mid-term exam was just around the corner, no one dared to relax.And Jiang Yu has always been thinking that the goal of being in the top five of the grade has not yet been achieved. Now that he is in the third year of high school, there is only one short year left.

In the college entrance examinations in the past few years, he heard many cases where he usually ranked among the best in the exams but performed abnormally as soon as the college entrance examination.Some parents feel that it is a pity that they will let their children study for another year, and some will choose universities based on the score line. Although it is not as good as Tsinghua University, it is ranked fourth in China, which is not bad in general.

Jiang Yu had been brooding about this kind of thing for a long time, and kept it in his heart.He thought to himself that the top three in his grade might not be able to be admitted to Qingheng and A University, so wouldn't the hope of a person who didn't make it into the top five in his grade be even more slim.

He poked his face with the tip of the pen, then turned to look at Zi Luo.

He is very confident in Ziluo. Before that, Ziluo performed normally no matter the quiz or major test, and there was no nervousness or other reactions.If things go on like this, University A must not run away.

But he is not sure.

His eyes were too direct, Zi Luo couldn't hold back and knocked his head: "What are you looking at?"

"Yeah," Jiang Yu seemed not to hear, and cheered himself up, "I have to work hard."

Zi Luo blinked.

"Come on, too." After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he turned his head back and began to work on the questions.

The weather in November dropped sharply, and Jiang Yu was very busy preparing for the midterm exam and Ji Wang's midterm exam.Zi Luo only took piano lessons once a week, and had more free time than him. Jiang Yu's desk was covered with textbooks and test papers, almost covering the entire desk.

The amount of homework in the third year of high school was overwhelming, so Zi Luo finished some of the homework and started to ask Ji Wang questions.

Jiang Yu finally raised his head from the test paper, took a deep breath, turned his head and saw Zi Luo lowering his head slightly and writing the questions on the paper. He grinned and called out, "Teacher Luo Luo."

Zi Luo looked up at him, stopped writing, and touched his face: "Don't be in such a hurry, there is enough time."

Jiang Yu shook his head: "I'm afraid it's too late."

In the past two years, his grades have not been bad, but he was urged by Zi Luo, and his grade ranking only went up but not down.But he couldn't get promoted anywhere, and he kept holding the attitude of "it doesn't matter", and didn't think about rushing forward.

Right now in the third year of senior high school, the teachers of various subjects emphasized the importance of the third year of senior high school and the college entrance examination every day. All the students in the class were still working hard on the questions after class. This kind of atmosphere would be contagious and made him dare not relax.

Maybe there will be a big change in the ranking of the midterm exam this time, and Jiang Yu is afraid of being squeezed out.After being squeezed out, my mentality became unbalanced, my test performance was unstable, and my grades were not as good as before, and I fell behind each time. This kind of situation has never happened.

Zi Luo looked at him for a while, then the pen slipped from his fingertips, and he raised his hand to caress Shang Jiang Yu's chin: "Recently I learned a dish of crucian carp soup, and I will cook it for you tomorrow."

"Okay——by the way, we will also buy a pot, rice cooker, and microwave oven when we go to college." Jiang Yu turned to look at him, with hope shining in his eyes, "The breakfast machine that made sandwiches last time also Bring it on."

Zi Luo locked him firmly in sight, looked at him and smiled.Jiang Yu stretched, tired from doing homework all afternoon, leaned forward, put his arms around his waist, and muttered softly: "When the time comes, pick a better-looking bed sheet and thicker curtains to cover the The kind that lives in the sun."

"En." Zi Luo touched his earlobe and responded, "Jiang Yu."

Jiang Yu buried his face in front of his chest and rubbed against his chest, relieving some of his fatigue: "Huh?"

"...I can't wait." Ziluo's Adam's apple rolled, and he said in a low voice, "I want to see you every morning when I open my eyes."

Jiang Yu grasped the fabric behind him tightly, and said in a muffled voice, "I want to too."

The two were silent for a while after speaking, probably aware of the sudden hypocrisy brought about by this topic.Jiang Yu looked up at him: "But it's not bad now, if I want to see you, I can see you over the wall."

After he finished speaking, he laughed again, his brows and eyes curved: "but it's the best to see you when you wake up."

Zi Luo stared at him, the emotions in his eyes changed a lot, but the one thing that didn't change was the lingering affection.He suddenly remembered that he met Jiang Yu's second uncle Jiang Defa one day a few years ago. At that time, Jiang Dezhi was drunk and made trouble at home, and scolded both Xu Meiyin and Jiang Yu. Xu Meiyin couldn't control it. I can only call Jiang Defa.

Jiang Defa hurried over in his busy schedule, and yelled at Jiang Dezhi, who was drunk and swearing. After seeing the people calm down, he walked out of the gate slowly, and Zi Luo and Jiang Yu stood in front of the gate.

Jiang Yu's figure stood under the shade of a tree, pursing his lips slightly without saying a word.

Jiang Defa proposed to take him away and live in his house, saying that he could cook a lot of dishes and cook a lot of nutritious soup, which was far better than here.

Zi Luo listened and glanced at Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu did not agree to leave.

At that time, this kind of idea began to sprout in his heart. He wanted to take Jiang Yu out of this place, so that he would not be bound by his family, and he would not hear the dirty and filthy abuse. Since the harmonious relationship and the love of his parents cannot be forced, why not It's more comfortable to leave.

But he has no right, nor the ability to take him away, he is empty-handed just like Jiang Yu.

In the past ten years, he can't count how many times he has seen Jiang Yu's silence, forbearance, avoidance, madness secretly, and even his slightly red eye sockets.He was sitting on the stone pier in front of the door, looking at a certain place in a daze, the sun that was clearly all over the street didn't shine on him at all.

Every time he saw it, he wanted to run with Jiang Yu, to a place where he could be himself freely.He had seen a cheerful young man before, Jiang Yu should have looked like this.

When he thought about it, he thought about it for many years, but he only knew that this idea had sprouted and took root, which made his heart ache.

He knew that Jiang Yu had been trying hard to remind himself of Jiang Lai's memory, and he would always comfort him, saying that it was okay, that he didn't need to think about it deliberately, and it didn't matter if he couldn't remember it.

It's best not to remember.

He never said it, but hoped that Jiang Yu would never think about it.

After the remedial class, Jiang Yu finally saw Ji Qing again. The man had just come back from outside, dressed in formal clothes, and chatted with him in the living room for a while.He learned from the teacher that Ji Wangyue's test scores had improved, and seeing that Jiang Yu had prepared enough materials and his handwriting reflected his hard work, he was really relieved.

Aunt Shen knew that Ji Qing was going home tonight, so she prepared a sumptuous dinner early.Ji Qing wanted Jiang Yu to stay and have dinner together, so Ji Wang was upstairs and stared at the handrail of the stairs, the reluctance in his eyes was obvious, he also wanted Jiang Yu to stay, thinking about it every time.

Jiang Yu declined in the end, walked out of the community, and saw Zi Luo waiting for him, holding a cup of soy milk, which was still warm.

The two wandered around the neighborhood for a while, bought some roadside stalls and ate slowly on the road, and took a walk when they were full. Facing the rising sun and the breeze, they walked back to Baihua Street on the shadows.

When I turned into the alley, there was no one there except a dog.

Jiang Yu squinted his eyes, and found that the dog squatting at the door of his house looked familiar. Before he could see clearly, Xiao Bai had already sensed the movement on the other side of the road, and ran towards them with his tongue out.

"Xiaobai? Run slowly, you're still pregnant." Jiang Yu squatted down to catch it, tilted his head and stared blankly, "Have you ever given birth?"

Xiaobai's stomach was deflated, and Zi Luo followed Jiang Yu to touch its head: "It's been a long time, it must have given birth."

Xiaobai circled them around, walked towards the intersection after turning around, walked a few steps and looked back at them, as if wanting to see if they had followed.

Zi Luo took Jiang Yu's arm and said, "Go and see."

The two of them walked slowly, and Xiaobai turned his head from time to time in front of them to make sure that the two were still in sight before turning his head and continuing to move forward.The den that Zi Luo built by himself is still next to the tree, and there are many dog ​​food sent by kind people beside the den, and a bowl of water is very full.

Before he got close to Jiang Yu, he heard a moaning and chirping sound. He tilted his head to look, and saw a litter of puppies with round bellies. He couldn't find his mother and was so anxious to sniff.

"...five." Jiang Yu counted, then patted Xiaobai's head, "It's really alive."

In the evening, Zi Luo packed up the remaining bones and sent them to Xiao Bai. Jiang Yu stood beside him and watched him finish all this, and reached out to hook his thumb: "Let's go."

At night, the wind was strong, and the cold air made people shiver. Jiang Yu was dressed thickly, with his hands tucked into his sleeves, and he brought Zi's fingers inside, covering them with warmth.

They didn't go home, they walked to the park tacitly, and many aunts were dancing in the square.

There are no stars in the night sky, the moon is half round, covered by fog, and it is hazy.There were too many passers-by, and Jiang Yu was afraid of meeting acquaintances, so he blocked the two people's holding hands with his body.

They walked to the bench and sat down, looking at the aunt who was dancing not far away, and no one spoke for a while.

Jiang Yu dishonestly picked Zi Luo's palm, and tilted his head: "...Luo Luo."

His voice was very soft, Zi Luo looked at him: "En."

"Ji Wang's father gave me a red envelope today." Jiang Yu said, "The rich are generous, and they gave me 1000 yuan."

Zi Luo laughed: "In this way, you earn more than me, so you can support me."

Jiang Yu looked up, looked at him and smiled: "Okay, you won't be hungry if you follow me. Don't forget that I still have a way out in the future, and I will be putty."

Zi Luo was so amused by him that he couldn't help but pinch his face while no one was paying attention, but he was stunned: "Go home, it's too cold."

"Well—" Jiang met him and got up, too lazy to move, "Pull me."

Like a pig, Zi Luo couldn't move after trying twice. He stood still in front of Jiang Yu for a few seconds, then suddenly bent down to support Jiang Yu's two arms——

"Fuck!" Jiang Yu was taken aback by him, "Where are you holding the baby?!"

Zi Luo said: "It's about the same, they are all equally childish."

After returning home, the two of them went back to their respective rooms and stayed up late to study the questions. The mobile phone was always put aside to display the video call, and they chatted a few words when they didn't know it.

Jiang Yu yawned, and when Zi Luo heard it, he looked at him on the screen: "Go to sleep, it's one o'clock."

"Yeah." Jiang Yu packed up the books, left the light of the night lamp to climb onto the bed, and stared at Zi Luo for a while with his mobile phone.

Zi Luo smiled at him: "Why are your eyes so wide?"

"...I want to see you." The warm yellow light shone on the side of Jiang Yu's face, making the end of his eyes softer. He paused, "I won't feel tired talking to you."

Zi Luo's eyes were very bright, like a bowl of wine, and people would get drunk just looking at it. He lay on his side and looked at Jiang Yu: "Jiang Yu."

Jiang Yu: "Ah."

Zi Luo frowned, "I want to kiss you."

The throbbing like electric current jumped up from the bottom of his heart, Jiang Yu gasped, sighing Zi Luo's unknowing ability to seduce people, he couldn't stand it every time.

He buried half of his face in the quilt, talking in a buzzing voice: "I'm holding the baby in my arms."

Zi Luo smiled softly and raised an eyebrow at him.

Jiang Yu squeezed the recording doll's leg with one hand: "I take it as you, see—"

He picked up the doll and pointed it at his forehead with a resounding "Bo", Zi Luo laughed again, and sighed almost dotingly: "Go to sleep."

"Yes." Jiang Yuying said, "Good night."

"See you tomorrow."
