lingering sound late

August of 2008 was the most impressive month for Xiang Wan. On August 8th, Xiang Wan had dinner at home and was about to go out to find Yu Shengwan.But Xiang Wan's parents seemed to have something to say, so they called Xiang Wan to stop: "Xiao Wan, wait a minute. Mom and Dad have something to tell you." Xiang Wan was about to go out at this time, so he dismissed it after hearing what his parents said. Thinking of going out, he returned to the dinner table.

"Do you have to say something now?" Xiang Wan asked suspiciously.

Dad and Mom looked at each other, as if they had made up their minds, their expressions became serious.Xiang Wan's mother said: "Do you still remember the thing we mentioned to you about going abroad? After thinking about it for a while, we still decided..."

"Dad, Mom, didn't we discuss it before? I told you to trust me. Even if I go to high school in China, my grades will not be bad. I promise!" Xiang Wan told them seriously.

At this time, my mother was not as gentle as usual, her expression was still serious, but there seemed to be tears in her eyes: "Xiang Wan, you are our son, of course we believe in you, if we can let you stay, we naturally hope that In this way, it's just that parents have unavoidable difficulties, this time I hope you can trust us, listen to us, and go abroad, okay?" Xiang Wan's mother said, her tone almost turned into pleading.

Xiang Wan didn't know what happened, but he seemed to obey his parents' attitude.But he actually didn't want to leave, just before going out, he was still thinking about discussing with Yu Sheng where to go in a few days.Even yesterday, I made an agreement with Yu Sheng that after entering high school, I will be best friends and be tablemates together.But at this moment, although he didn't understand why his parents had to let him go abroad, this was the first time Xiang Wan saw his parents like this, and it seemed that something terrible had really happened.

Not knowing what to do with himself, he locked himself in the room.

"Okay, don't be sad, he will understand later." Xiang Wan's father gently stroked Xiang Wan's mother's back, with tears in his eyes, and closed them.

Xiang Wan's heart was in turmoil.He thought that his parents were just testing him last time, and his attitude and answers back then should have reassured them, but their attitude and rhetoric now made Xiang Wan faintly worried.He didn't dare to think about what happened in his own home.Xiang Wan had mixed feelings in her heart, wondering what she should do, when suddenly there was a knock on her door.

"Come in." Xiang Wan said.

"Xiao Wan, your clothes are ready to dry, I brought them here for you." The person who knocked on the door was Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper of Xiang Wan's house.Although he was the housekeeper, he was the only one hired by Xiang Wan inside and outside the house.Besides Uncle Zhong, there are only three members of Xiang Wan's family.Xiang Wan didn't know what happened between Uncle Zhong and his father. He only knew that Uncle Zhong was in tatters when he first came to his house. He heard that his father took him in and asked him to take care of the house for his mother. Salary is given monthly.Uncle Zhong watched Xiang Wan grow up, and in his eyes, Xiang Wan was like his own child.

"Uncle Zhong, tell me why my parents insisted on letting me go abroad? Do you know anything?" Xiang Wan was puzzled and tried to ask Uncle Zhong what happened.Uncle Zhong seemed to know something, but he said to Xiang Wan in a calm tone, "How many years do you think Uncle Zhong has been at your house?"

"You came to my house when I was six years old. It should be almost ten years now." Xiang Wan replied.

"That's right, indeed. Ten years have passed without knowing it. I remember when I came to your house, you were just a little kid..." Uncle Zhong said thoughtfully.

Xiang Wan knew that Uncle Zhong was going to start his long memory again, so he interrupted him: "Uncle Zhong, I just want to know why my parents are so persistent this time? I have heard what you said many times."

"Don't worry, just listen to me talking to you slowly." Uncle Zhong laughed "hehe", "Do you know, in fact, if you go abroad, Uncle Zhong may not see you for a long time I miss you. Thinking of this, I really feel a little bit reluctant. You don’t need me to explain it to you since you were a child. You should know how much your parents love you. I can’t tell you the reason for this incident, but just as you As your parents told you just now, you have grown up, I hope you can listen to your parents this time, they also have difficulties."

After listening to Uncle Zhong's advice, Xiang Wan couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, but since Uncle Zhong said the same thing, he seemed to have no reason to refuse: "I see, Uncle Zhong, let me think about it myself."

"Okay, then Uncle Zhong will go out first." Uncle Zhong glanced at the distressed Xiang Wan, sighed deeply, and slowly walked out of Xiang Wan's room.Xiang Wan's parents outside the door also listened for a long time, and when they saw Uncle Zhong come out, they left with Uncle Zhong.Looking at the childhood photos of himself and Yu Sheng on the desk, Xiang Wan remembered that he and Yu Sheng had made an appointment to go out in the afternoon.I should tell him, right?Xiangwan thought.I wanted to tell him, to know what he would think.

So Xiang Wan sorted out her emotions and prepared to go out for the appointment.He and Yu Sheng made an appointment to meet at the record store next to the school at seven o'clock in the evening, and it was already eight o'clock.Including the time spent on the road, Xiang Wan was an hour and a half late. He and Yu Sheng had never been late before when they went out to play.From a distance, he saw Yu Sheng waiting in front of the record store for a long time.In August in Yushi, even at night, the temperature is not low at all, Yu Sheng has already been sweating profusely from the heat.

"You don't know how to go in and wait for me first." Xiang Wan was a little angry seeing him like this, he was so stupid.

"If I stand at the door, you can see me first, and I can see you first." Yu Sheng said.

Xiang Wan didn't know what to say, he was embarrassed to be late, and he had to tell Yu Sheng about himself next time.But after all, it has to be said, Xiang Wan thought.

"Hush, I have something to tell you." Xiang Wan said, and sat down on a bench next to him with a lingering sound.Although it is a holiday, there are still some students near the school.Not far away passed by two boys, about five or six years old, holding hands, innocent and innocent.Yu Sheng didn't know what Xiang Wan was going to say to him, and he was a little nervous sitting on the bench.On a summer night, the wind carried residual heat, and the two were silent on the bench.

In the end, Xiang Wan spoke first: "I might have to leave here." Hearing this, Yu Sheng's heart tightened, his body froze, and he slowly turned his head to look at Xiang Wan.Xiang Wan also turned to look at Yu Sheng.The cicadas on the side were screaming loudly, but Yu Sheng didn't know what to say.Xiang Wan saw Yu Sheng's erratic eyes, and he could feel Yu Sheng's inner thoughts at the moment: "I'm sorry... I don't know why my parents are so persistent all of a sudden, I... I don't know what happened. But I still want to tell you that I don't want to leave without saying goodbye." Yu Sheng bowed his head in silence.

After a while, Yu Sheng let out a breath, squeezed out a smile and said to Xiang Wan, "I thought I was going to tell me something, so it was this. If it's something that's already been decided, then that's okay." There is a way, don't worry. We can still keep in touch when we get there." For a moment, Xiang Wan felt that Yu Sheng's expression was a little out of control, and in Yu Sheng's eyes, he saw some light flickering faintly.With Yu Sheng like this, Xiang Wan felt even more uncomfortable.I thought it would be better to say it, but now it seems that it is not good at all.Xiang Wan felt that the two of them couldn't be immersed in sadness. We could see each other again in the future, he thought.Xiang Wan also made herself look happier, and joked to Yu Sheng: "Damn, I thought you would keep me for a while, but you are so willing to let me go. The relationship for so many years is really a dog." It was such a tease at night, and I laughed.

"Haha." After laughing, Yu Sheng returned to his serious look, "When are you leaving?"

"I don't know, I ran out to see you without asking, but seeing how anxious my parents are, it's probably only two days." Xiang Wan said.He saw that the stars in Yu Sheng's eyes were extinguished and dimmed.Is it true that adults will pretend to be sensible and bid farewell to each other at this time, or should it be so, it seems that everyone does not want to add a heavy gray to the already painful parting.Yu Sheng knew that since Xiang Wan had told him to leave, he must have his own reasons.At that moment, Yu Sheng realized how much he couldn't bear to part with this person in front of him. He had been inseparable for so many years, and maybe this time he really wanted to separate.Thinking of this, Yu Sheng involuntarily moved closer to Xiang Wan, but at that moment he regained his senses, he hugged Xiang Wan and said, "Tell me the time, and I'll see you off." Xiang Wan felt his shoulders a little wet, He hugged Yu Sheng and closed his eyes, just like the inherent farewell ceremony on TV.

"Okay, it's getting late, you'd better go back early and pack your things. Hurry up and ask about the flight time, don't procrastinate when the time comes." Yu Sheng said.

The news tonight might have been a bit sudden to Yu Sheng, and Xiang Wan himself didn't want to play any more, so he went home.

……

Three days later, Xiang Wan's family arrived at the airport.Xiang Wan didn't tell Yu Sheng when he left. He told Yu Sheng that his boarding time was early in the morning, and he was in a hurry, and he didn't contact him after that.

When going through the formalities in the lobby, Xiang Wan said that he was going to the toilet.The weather in Yushi is gloomy today, and Xiang Wan's mood is also gloomy.He washed his face in the bathroom, looked at himself in the mirror, thought of Yu Sheng's eyes and his forced smile, and thought of those happy days when they were together.He has the answer in his heart.

Outside the bathroom, Xiang Wan's parents finally waited until Xiang Wan came out.When they were about to drag Xiang Wan to board the plane, Xiang Wan stopped and calmly said to his parents, "Dad, Mom, I've been thinking about what happened at home these past two days. Why are you so anxious?" Why didn't you tell me anything. I know that everything you do is for my own good, and I know that you have your reasons for not telling me, but I know better that I don't want to leave, I want to stay. "

"Stupid boy, we're about to board the plane. What are you thinking? Let's go." Xiang Wan's mother said and was about to pull Xiang Wan away, with tears in her eyes.As for Xiang Wan's father, he stood aside and didn't move. He looked at Xiang Wan and said, "Son, we do hope that you will listen to us, but that doesn't mean we don't believe you."

"Honey, what are you talking to Xiaowan here, time is running out." Xiang Wan's mother was a little anxious.

Xiang Wan's father said to Xiang Wan's mother: "Honey, don't you understand? It's already this time, and Xiao Wan still tells us these things, which shows that he also has his concerns, just as we have ours. God, seeing Xiaowan unhappy, I gradually figured it out. This kid is sensible, he tried to give up his happiness to listen to us, but this Xiaowan is no longer the happy one we saw before It's too late. The child is old enough to have his own ideas, so let's trust him."

Xiang Wan's mother also calmed down after hearing these words. She looked at Xiang Wan's father, sighed, and said with a smile: "Then it seems that we can only proceed according to our previous plan." After speaking, they hugged Xiang Wan.
