The Spring of Prince Syndrome

"Brother!" The girl outside the yard put away her umbrella, and when she smiled, she showed her neat and white teeth.

"Hey, sister." Tan Ruikang replied with a smile: "Why are you here?"

"Come and see you." The girl said.

Yuanyuan stared at the girl quietly, her skin was dark, but her facial features were very beautiful, it was a kind of youthful and simple atmosphere that rushed to her face, a shy blush appeared on her face, she didn't dare to look far away, she only talked to Tan Ruikang, He took off the floral cloth covering the basket and showed him that there were pure white eggs inside, and the eggs were so small, smaller than any eggs he had seen far away.

There are also homemade cut cakes and sugar.

"My mother asked me to bring it to my mother-in-law." The girl whispered, "I heard that your two brothers are back."

Yuanyuan whistled boredly, the girl blushed again, Yuanyuan said expressionlessly: "Hello."

The girl said: "You... hello."

Tan Ruikang said a few words, then went into the room to search for things, and said, "Wait a minute."

The girl hummed, and looked at Yuan Yuan curiously, while Yuan Yuan looked at her suspiciously, her brows were full of youthful vigor and distrustful hostility.

Tan Ruikang took out a bunch of small ornaments and knick-knacks, and gave her two packages of special products bought in Beijing, and asked her to go back and distribute them to her friends.

Yuanyuan looked like a hedgehog with teeth and claws, and said, "What is that? You still care about my puppy love, what are you doing?"

Tan Ruikang said: "Hey, don't guess, that's my junior high school classmate."

Yuanyuan said: "Obviously interested in you, when did you have adultery?"

Tan Ruikang laughed loudly, slapped the book, looked at the distance with interest, and said, "Didn't you see it?"

distant:"?"

Tan Ruikang smiled handsomely and gently, and said: "She likes you, she just fell in love with you the first time she saw you."

Yuanyuan: "How is it possible!"

Tan Ruikang said: "If you don't believe it, forget it." Then he lowered his head to read the book.

Yuanyuan said: "Don't try to be perfunctory, just say it!"

While talking, he punched Tan Ruikang in the ribs from time to time. Tan Ruikang was so tormented by him that he couldn't read the book, so he had to say seriously: "She didn't dare to look at you just now, she kept talking to me. It's not like this usually. When she came in and took a look at you, her face turned pale. famous."

"Psychopathy." Yuan Yuan said in a bad mood.

"Forget it if you don't believe it." Tan Ruikang said with a smile: "You are the most popular, and everyone likes you."

Hearing this, Yuanyuan felt a little terrified, Zhao Guogang had said before that he was likable, but the embroidered pillow was full of gunpowder.

That afternoon when the rain stopped, Tan Ruikang brought paper money and incense, and a bottle of Erguotou to his father's grave. To follow, the two walked towards the edge of the field together.

After a night of rain, the road was dripping with mud and water, the air was very fresh, the fields and the earth were all washed green, and the stream was rushing, Tan Ruikang said: "I'll carry you on my back, the road is not easy to walk. "

Yuan Yuan said: "No need."

He was jumping around on the edge of the field, Tan Ruikang said: "Be careful!"

Sure enough, Yuanyuan slipped down and fell into the mud. Tan Ruikang couldn't help laughing.

With a mournful face, Yuanyuan followed him to the grave on the hillside, saw Tan Ruikang kneeling in front of the grave, and murmured, "Dad, I'm back, and Xiaoyuan is here too."

I stood far away for a while, burned some paper money, and walked away to watch the scenery and listen to music when I was bored. After listening to DISCMAN for a while, the battery ran out, so I had to take off the earphones and walked over slowly.

Standing behind a pine tree, he heard Tan Ruikang saying in Hunan dialect as he poured wine into the cup on the grave: "...you are very good to me. Uncle treats me as a son, and Xiaoyuan treats me as my own brother. I will pay for my life." Studying and giving me food, this great kindness, I don't know how to repay it in the future..."

"Dad, Mom, please bless me to get into a good university. I want to stand out, go to Tsinghua University and Peking University, and live up to your expectations..."

Far away, I could barely understand it. After the rain, the sun came out again. The setting sun was like an egg yolk, dyeing the sky and the earth red.

After the incense burnt out, Tan Ruikang took Yuan Yuan down the mountain to go home.

It’s too hot in my hometown in the country, and I’ve gone shopping in a few days away. When I grow up, I’m not interested in my childhood playthings. I fish and catch shrimps, swim in the stream, dig out birds’ eggs and drill into the air-raid shelter, and lose my childhood memories. Temptation, Yuan Yuan and Tan Ruikang each held a straw in their mouths and walked slowly in the woods.

"Things that were fun before are no longer fun." Yuan Yuan said.

Tan Ruikang was also a little emotional, and said, "Yes, I have grown up."

They took a look at the surrounding scenery once, and went to Tan Ruikang's house to pack some things. There was nothing to stay in the country, so they got in the car home. Before leaving, Yuanyuan made an agreement with grandma that they would come to see her after the college entrance examination.

He wanted to go home and discuss with Zhao Guogang about taking his grandmother home to live with him. Tan Ruikang insisted that she was not used to big cities, there were too many cars, no friends, and she felt uncomfortable.

After returning home a few days later, Tan Ruikang was still reading, Yuan Yuan didn’t go out to play every day, he took all the books he had read on the bookshelf as reading notes, some short two or three lines, and some wrote a full page , introducing the plots of those books, each with a note inserted, recommending it to Tan Ruikang.

"It's fine to read Jin Yong's book once." Yuan Yuan said: "These books are more beautiful, Alai's Dust Settled, Alexandre Dumas' Three Musketeers, in fact, I think Jin Yong borrowed a lot of Alexandre Dumas' ideas..."

Tan Ruikang was taken aback and said, "Have you seen all these?"

Yuanyuan said: "Well, there are a few notes of mine in it, if you don't understand, you can refer to it and read slowly."

Tan Ruikang was a little flattered. A few days later, Yuanyuan and Lin Zibo went to buy a computer and got a 7000 yuan desktop computer. The old computer was moved to Tan Ruikang's room for him to use. It's all very fun, I even printed out the strategy online, if you can't play it, just ask me."

Tan Ruikang's treatment suddenly improved, and he couldn't take it anymore, so he hurriedly accepted all the orders.He didn't play games throughout the summer vacation, but read many books following the distant reading notes.

Yuanyuan has no books to read, and occasionally goes to the bookstore with Tan Ruikang.If the difference in consumption concepts and values ​​between the two is not counted, Tan Ruikang is indeed a very good playmate.

You don't need to make an appointment to find him out, just call him and follow him.

There is no need to discuss where to go, and Tan Ruikang is almost willing to go wherever he wants to go.

They gradually started to have topics about art and books.

When going to the bookstore, Yaoyuan took a book and flipped through a few pages, and threw it on the shopping cart if he was interested. Tan Ruikang could stand still in front of the bookshelf all afternoon while holding a book.

The whole summer vacation passed slowly, and Tan Ruikang read more than half of the books at Yaoyuan's house, but the game disk remained untouched. Yuanyuan knew that it was impossible for him to fully integrate into his own world with his brain, so he had to take all the disks back.

When the book city is crowded with students buying reference books again, the summer vacation of the third year of junior high school is finally over. When Yuan Yuan thinks that he will enter a difficult high school career in the next three years, he feels unspeakable loss accompanied by egg pain.

On the first day of school, there was the No. [-] typhoon signal warning. Yuan Yuan was wailing in bed thinking that he could skip class, but was pulled up by Tan Ruikang, who was very energetic.

"You don't have to go—" Yuanyuan said.

"Lin Zibo called." Tan Ruikang said, "We must go today."

Yuanyuan had to go out to school with Tan Ruikang depressedly. Tan Ruikang was holding an umbrella and was half wet, but he took good care of Yuanyuan. After greeting, Yuan Yuan and Tan Ruikang sat in the last row.

There was buzzing chatter in the classroom, most of the people were talking, when the class leader came to roll call, the class fell silent.

"Tan Ruikang." After the old man's class leader finished calling his name, the head teacher came over and called someone else to speak.

Tan Ruikang looked blank, with half-wet sleeves rolled up on his elbows, and laughed after a few words.Nodding repeatedly, Yuanyuan leaned against the window and looked at him, feeling sour in his heart, wondering what the guy was going to show off again.

"Xiaoyuan, the teacher asked me to be the class monitor, let's sit together." After a while, Tan Ruikang came over and asked with a smile, "How are you?"

distant:"……"

Monitor?What can the monitor eat?Yao Yuan immediately felt uncomfortable and said, "I don't want to sit in the last row, I can't see you."

That's true. Yuanyuan usually faces the computer all the time, and has a slight myopia of more than 100 degrees. Tan Ruikang realized it and said, "Then you sit with Lin Zibo?"

Yuan Yuan pushed him and said, "Whatever, do you understand democracy and justice? You just abused your power when you first became the monitor..."

Tan Ruikang smiled unconsciously, and went to transfer someone's position and record the roster, and the other person was the deputy squad leader, and went to collect the book.

Yuan Yuan was transferred to the middle row, and the top four ranks were changed every Monday. After a busy class, the representative of the six classes was settled, and he resigned from the position of class leader and did not want to be a representative of the English class.

After passing the senior high school entrance examination, the whole first year of high school was in a slack stage. Most of the students in the class hadn't had enough fun during the summer vacation, and they couldn't get into the state.Mathematics in the first year of high school is very difficult, and all subjects present a new stage of linking the past and the future. Yuanyuan basically has no interest in learning. He chats in a daze during class, flips through a book, or chats with his new deskmate.

The new tablemate is a thin, funny boy named Qin Yao, whose fun rating is not much lower than Qi Huiyu's. He originally studied in the second class in junior high school, and he and Yuan Yuan borrowed textbooks. They chatted enthusiastically.

So in less than a day, Yaoyuan was given a new nickname of Baoyu by literary girls, and Qin Yao was called Brother Qin.

Yuan Yuan was very angry about this, but Tan Ruikang had never seen the Dream of Red Mansions, so he didn't know what they were talking about.

Fortunately, when Zhang Zhen came to borrow the book, he called Milkman, so the distant old nickname was preserved.

Qin Yao is very funny, and his thinking is often not in the same dimension as ordinary people. He not only likes to draw beards and arms of Transformers for Guan Hanqing, Zhuge Liang and others in history books, but also likes to laugh at himself and play jokes with girls. , very popular.

Yuanyuan also likes him a lot, and the two of them often joked in class, making them laugh non-stop.But Qin Yao is different from Qi Huiyu after all, they only chat during school, and stop contacting after school.Unlike with Qi Huiyu, there are always endless things to talk about.

There is no need for late self-study in the first year of high school. Tan Ruikang always likes to talk about being far away after school.

"Don't chat with Qin Yao in class." Tan Ruikang said, "Why are there so many words? The teacher has an opinion."

"I know, I know." Yuanyuan replied impatiently, the promise was so promised, but the next day's class was still the same.

Time flies, and the whole class is familiar, but Yuanyuan always feels that there is still a big difference between high school and junior high school.

The students in this class are all the top students in the original No. [-] middle school, who were promoted from the top dozens of grades, but why is the atmosphere not as familiar as in the previous junior high school?There is no longer anyone in the class who waits far away to ask him to buy a meal. Everyone returns home from school at noon, and everyone reads books.

After school in the afternoon, they also rushed home separately. Although it was a class as a whole, it was loose after all, and there was no special cohesion.At the same time, there are many more people who are in love. Although they are not on the public face, they are seen when they go out in private.

Yuanyuan doesn't have a girlfriend, and neither does Tan Ruikang. The two brothers are still the same as before, the only difference is that every noon, Yuanyuan will bring Tan Ruikang a cup of milk tea when he returns from having lunch with Qin Yao outside.

After returning home every day, Yao Yuan would finish his homework hastily, go into the room to play computer games, and sometimes would copy Tan Ruikang's homework if he didn't want to do it.

One day the math teacher asked, "Why are there two Tan Ruikangs in our class? And whose homework is Tan Ruikang?"

Yuanyuan suddenly remembered this. Last night, he used a new notebook to copy his homework. He copied it smoothly. After copying the inside pages, he turned to the cover and copied Tan Ruikang's name on it.

So the whole class roared with laughter, Yuanyuan blushed, and went to the podium to get the notebook under the eyes of everyone.

Tan Ruikang said: "Xiaoyuan just took my new notebook by mistake, and wrote the one with a blank in the name."

This matter was finally revealed, but Tan Ruikang said when he returned home: "Didn't you get the answer right yesterday? How did you copy your homework? How can this work?"

"Oh, I'm so annoying!" Yuan Yao said frantically, "Don't talk about it now!"

Tan Ruikang said: "The homework can be done obviously, but the amount is not much. Aren't you studying in your room?"

Yuan Yuan said, "I had a bit of a headache yesterday, so I don't want to do it."

Tan Ruikang frowned and said, "You didn't tell Uncle? Where does it hurt?"

Yuanyuan was really convinced, and he sent Tan Ruikang back to his room. From then on, every time Yuanyuan asked Tan Ruikang to get his homework, Tan Ruikang would come over to see if he had finished writing, whether he was correct or just copy up.

Yuanyuan has a serious rebellious mentality. Although he has long admitted that Tan Ruikang's reading ability is much better than him, but since Tan Ruikang and him went to the third grade of junior high school together, Yuanyuan has been very resistant to sharing Tan Ruikang's honor positively, including doing questions. ,study.

As long as Tan Ruikang does the exercises, if there is something he doesn't understand, he will definitely use it to ask Yuanyuan, especially English.Yuan Yuan will analyze it patiently and enjoy the superiority of being a teacher.But when it was Yuan Yuan's turn to not know mathematics, he never asked Tan Ruikang.He would rather solve it hard for a long time, and only ask Tan Ruikang to borrow his test paper when he gets a little irritated. In name, he is correct in the answer, but in fact he is looking at his solution.For some reason, Yuanyuan couldn't calm down and formally ask Tan Ruikang for advice.

Tan Ruikang's behavior of supervising his homework also touched Yao Yuan's rebellious mentality. You have Zhang Liangji, and I have a wall ladder. Bo borrowed it and copied it, so as not to offend Tan Ruikang.

The first half of the first semester of the first year of high school passed smoothly, half of the papers in the midterm exam were far away, and after the results were expected-it was over.

Facing the 27-point math paper, Yuan Yuan was a little unbelievable.

Qin Yao scored 27 points in the test and became a pair of troubled brothers with him, but still optimistically added a "1" before the distant "[-]".

Qin Yao's original grades were not very good. In junior high school, he was a little smart, and he was squeezed into the bottom of the recommended places. After high school, he didn't study much, and he still had English in the distance. Qin Yao was almost at the bottom of the class.

Yuan Yuan couldn't laugh at all, this was simply the lowest score he ever had in the test!From elementary school all the way to junior high school, dropping 80 points is basically a fantasy. Yuan Yuan never expected that he would encounter such a score in his life, just like dreaming.

"Out of 100? You got 27?!" Tan Ruikang was also a little unbelievable.

Yuanyuan didn't know how to answer, and signaled Tan Ruikang not to mention this matter, after thinking about it, his mind went blank, and said, "Don't tell my dad."

Tan Ruikang stood at the station as if no one was there and shouted, "Tell me first, what's going on!"

This time, Yuan Yuan was completely guilty, and he was so scared that he didn't dare to refute Tan Ruikang.There is only one thought in my head, bad bad bad bad...

After the results of the mid-term exam were released, Yuanyuan's Chinese and English did not fall too badly. Mathematics was the worst, followed by physics. He didn't even memorize the formulas.

Relying on his English skills, he got the third place in the class based on his accumulation in junior high school, while Tan Ruikang relied on his own hard work to get the first place in the grade, successfully overcoming his only shortcoming.

"Your number sets and imaginary numbers

Nothing? Tan Ruikang said: "Impossible?"There are only a few knowledge points..."

Yuanyuan said: "Stop talking! I know!"

The two returned home, Yuan Yuan sat down and turned on the computer, wanting to escape reality and talk about it later.

Tan Ruikang reached out and pulled out the plug.

"It will burn the motherboard—!" Yuan Yuan shouted frantically.

Tan Ruikang was unmoved at all, looked at him coldly, Yuanyuan suddenly froze, this was the first time Tan Ruikang got angry at himself.

"Come out, I'll explain the paper to you." Tan Ruikang said: "Analyze and see what the problem is."

Yuan Yuan had no choice but to obediently take out the test paper, and followed Tan Ruikang to sit down at the dining table. Tan Ruikang's school uniform sleeves were rolled up, and he looked at Yuan Yuan's appalling score seriously, heaved a sigh, and understood.

Tan Ruikang: "You didn't study at all in the first half of the semester, so you regressed, no wonder."

Yuanyuan hummed, looking like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, Tan Ruikang brought him a box of milk for him to drink, then looked at his other papers, and said, "You should take a rest first, go take a bath. "

"I went in to study." Yuan Yuan lazily said.

"No." Tan Ruikang said, "Want to go in and play again?"

There is no way to go far away, and he also hates himself now, why did he become like this in only half a semester?Tan Ruikang analyzed the paper for a long time, listed the knowledge points, and gave him a lecture. Yuan Yuan was very moved and dared not disobey him again.

"What will the parents do..." Yuan Yuan said, "Either learn from Qin Yao, and invite the aunt from the canteen outside the school to sit in the last row?"

Tan Ruikang said: "Don't be kidding, I will take care of my uncle's questions, let's do the questions first."

Tan Ruikang's eyes were full of warmth, so Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like someone would support him even if the sky fell, and he could sleep at night.
