drowning

When Xu Yanxin woke up, she had a dizzy headache, her eyes almost went dark, and her braids turned up.On his side, humming and humming, he got up and heard a cold snort above his head.After his eyes finally cleared up, he saw a glass of water, a pill in front of him, and Jiang Yu's big hand with well-defined bones and very short nails.Jiang Yu was wearing gray home clothes and standing by the bed.

Xu Yanxin hesitated for two seconds, considering whether to make a composition, but seeing Jiang Yu's frowning eyebrows, he swallowed, took the water and medicine he handed over, Jiang Yu waited for him to finish taking the medicine, and handed it over again. A hard fruit candy, orange-flavored, he retracted mournfully under the blanket with the candy in his mouth.Jiang Yu directly grabbed his wrist, lifted him out of the bed like a chicken, and said with a dark face, "Hurry up, I'll take you back to Xinlan Garden."

Xu Yanxin muttered, "I have a headache."

He had a half-true headache, half a drunk reaction, and half Jiangyu.But in any case, he has always been weak and sickly, and occasionally pretending to be sick with a white face is a piece of cake.He closed his eyes pretending to be weak, and pressed his temples with his hands.

But Jiangyu has always been ruthless.

"You drank eight bottles of beer, can you stop the pain?" Jiang Yu threw off the quilt, "Go to the doctor when you're sick, can you get better if you lie down?"

"It's only seven o'clock, sleep a little longer."

He pinched his fingers and gestured "for a while", which was about half the length of a finger.

"Can't you get up? I'll count to three two one."

Xu Yanxin sat up, just as Jiang Yu was about to hand him the clothes, when he stretched out his hand, pulled the quilt back on his body, curled up in the soft duvet, half-opened his eyes, and said, "My head really hurts too much. Okay, sleep for another two hours, and I will go back by myself in two hours."

"No."

"I won't touch your things," Xu Yanxin pouted, "and aren't you Ruixin's partner?"

Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows: "So?"

Xu Yanxin said in a low voice: "No one dares to say anything about the boss."

"I want to lead by example, get up quickly." Xu Yanxin opened a crack to inquire about the enemy's situation, Jiang Yu didn't smile, and his handsome face was dark, it didn't seem like he was joking, he assessed the danger value, decided to get out of bed, and regarded death as home Get off the bed, brush your teeth and wash your face, then lean your chin against the dining table softly, and look at Jiang Yu eagerly.Jiang Yu stiffly looked away from his exposed collarbone, supported the tip of his chin, and said coldly: "The table has a corner. Can you be careful."

Xu Yanxin took a look, and sure enough a corner was broken.Jiang Yu said: "The moving company doesn't matter. I'll pick another one in the afternoon." Xu Yanxin knocked on the table and listened to the sound. He heard that it was made of very strong gloomy wood, and the price was tens of thousands. Said: "That's too wasteful, you also put it, I will deal with it for you."

Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "I haven't seen you in four years, and you still learn carpentry?"

Xu Yanxin said proudly: "I know a lot, by the way, where is my breakfast?"

"I usually don't eat breakfast."

Xu Yanxin became serious and said: "Skipping breakfast is not good for your health, I want to eat breakfast."

"I'll buy it at the convenience store later."

Only then did Xu Yanxin obediently change his shoes, put on his coat, and hide his face in a scarf sluggishly. Jiang Yu stood in front of him when he took the elevator, and he was wearing a three-piece coat and suit. Unlike high school, Jiang Yu now wears a shirt The button is fastened to the top, as if afraid of being robbed.He couldn't help laughing when he thought of this, but Jiang Yu turned his head to look at him as if consciously, he quickly restrained his expression, and stood quietly.

He slandered in his heart that Jiang Yu also had an eye on the back door of his head, and he pursed his lips and silently called him "a cheapskate". When Jiang Yu stepped out of the elevator, he grabbed his hat and said, "Who is a cheapskate? If you don't make it clear, I will let you." Take the bus by yourself."

Xu Yanxin waved his arm, straightened his hat, touched the throat that had just been strangled by fate, and said: "Sit by yourself, sit by yourself, I'm not your colleague and I want you to give it to me. I know how to go back."

Jiang Yu glanced at him and said, "It's twenty kilometers from here to Xinlan Garden."

He blinked twice.

Jiang Yu added: "If you are not afraid of being crowded in the morning rush hour, you can take the subway back by yourself."

He blinked again, but this time he smiled flatteringly, "I'm the cheapskate. I didn't dirty your car yesterday, did I? For the sake of helping you fix the table?" Pat the car body, hey hey twice.

Fortunately, Jiang Yu was still alone, so he just glanced at him quickly, told him to get in the car, and bought a rice ball for him with his word. As expected, the skin was broken.Jiang Yu looked at him sideways, and he touched the corner of his mouth, but fortunately there was no bleeding.

"The mouth is broken."

Jiang Yu rolled his eyes and said, "You must have ground your teeth yesterday. I could hear it when I was sleeping next door, just like a mouse gnawing on a wire."

Xu Yanxin opened her eyes wide and found it hard to accept, she said to herself: "How is it possible, I used to sleep well. Then should I buy some cod liver oil?"

Jiang Yu said: "If you ask Ye Yuqing, you will know whether you grind your teeth or not."

"Why ask her?"

Jiang Yu glanced at him and said, "You two have been dating for four years."

Xu Yanxin hummed, as if asking him "so", Jiang Yu frowned, and said, "You guys haven't slept for four years, do you want to become immortals or become saints?" Xu Yanxin's ears turned red suddenly, Then he said falteringly: "I'm not used to sleeping with other people, I can't sleep."

"I'm Ye Yuqing and I'm breaking up with you too."

Xu Yanxin's ears were still red: "We call it Plato's love, besides... is that important? And how do you know that I broke up with Ye Yuqing?" Are you not in England?

"You will be 27 this year." Jiang Yu avoided answering and glanced at him.

"So, you have a lot of experience?" Xu Yanxin was really fooled, blushing and poking her neck.

"Compared to you."

Xu Yanxin felt dizzy, and said dizzily, "Zhang An?"

Jiang Yu just glanced at him lightly and ignored him.And his tuna onigiri also became tasteless.He didn't move after taking two bites, and when he got out of the car, he realized that he had softened the rice balls.

Xu Yanxin drank so much yesterday that she didn't dare to go home, fearing that she still smelled bad, so she slept in the hotel all night and took a few showers to dilute the smell of alcohol on her body.After that, he went to Jiangyu several times, but was told that Jianglu was on a business trip.On the contrary, Zhang An told him that the defense lawyers always appeared in their company again and again, which was really illegal.He quietly looked at this gentle but vigilant young man, and with a bright smile, he said yes.

Looking at the towering building, he vaguely remembered what happened before graduation.It's such a fine weather.After graduation, Jiang Yu never contacted him.

Years later, he was busy writing comics and spending time with his grandma.As a former chief physician, his grandma cares most about health and nutrition. There is no sugar in the house, and there is less oil and salt in the dishes.Xu Yanxin lived by herself for a few years, mostly hot pot and roast duck, and she has long been used to eating heavily. When she eats watery vegetables, she only feels "healthy", and nothing else tastes good at all.Grandma is gray-haired, but still majestic. When she speaks, her eyes are shining brightly: "Why does your mother still buy bird's nest?"

Xu Yanxin stopped holding the chopsticks, and said in a daze, "Well, it's not about nourishing yin and beautifying."

Grandma snorted and said: "This bird's nest is high in carbohydrates, which is equivalent to energy-supplementing sugars. Rice and fruits don't all have such ingredients. What are you talking about nourishing yin? Just tell her not to send bird's nest, why give it back? With this money, I might as well buy some vitamins."

"She is also kind and wants to honor you."

But grandma said: "She thinks she didn't make the decision when she was a child, and she can't trust me and your grandfather in everything."

Xu Yanxin silently put the dirty bowls and chopsticks into the sink, turned on the faucet, and the sound of washing overwhelmed the popular science program on the TV.Just like in his cartoons, the sika deer does not keep company with other animals, even though they can sing and only eat grass, which will make him wary of potential dangers in the forest, but the sika deer in his works are walking in a hurry, time and time again. Find the only lone wolf in that forest.

He is bewitched to yearn for wider horizons.

Turning on the faucet and drying his fingers, he hugged his grandma's arm warmly as he did when he was a child, and said, "After two days, I'll ask my mother to pick you up to play with us, okay? We have a new game there. paradise."

"How old am I and I still go to the amusement park."

"Then just accompany me. I'll buy you Minnie's headband. You must be beautiful. At noon, you can eat a turkey leg. It's so big." Xu Yanxin gestured exaggeratedly.The old man finally showed a little smile, but he still said: "You also eat like this in City B? Then why is my Xinxin still has thin arms and legs, like a little girl."

Xu Yanxin smiled and said, "Why does grandma still call me Xinxin?"

"What's that called? No matter how old you are, you are my Xinxin." Grandma put her arms around him and said as if coaxing a child, "My Xinxin is the most obedient and best-looking child in the world."

"It's not that I was born wrinkled and my face was like a rag."

"You listened to your mother's nonsense, which child is born smooth and clean? But Xinxin was the one with the biggest and brightest eyes since she was a child. The nurses all said so. And we Xinxin cried loudly."

"Really? Are there any pictures?"

"Your grandpa keeps it in the study like a treasure, and you have to look at it every day." Grandma's eyes turned gray and gradually dimmed. "He's gone, and I don't dare to look at those old photos."

Xu Yanxin's heart tightened when he heard it, but he still smiled and said, "Then you take some new ones for me, this time I'll watch the new ones."

Grandma showed a shy smile like a little girl, and said, "Why is my Xinxin still acting like a child?"

"I am indeed grandma's child."

He coaxed the old man to leave happily. Before leaving, he went to the cemetery.

Xu Ruqing was buried at the back. Back then Xu Zhao paid a lot of money to buy this small piece of land, which was very valuable. Now it seems that even if it is inlaid with marble, it is nothing more than a rectangular block of soil, hiding a scholar's life. And half of his youth.

During the Chinese New Year holiday, many students swept Xu Ruqing's tomb. In the photo, Xu Ruqing has a spirited face, but kind but burning eyes.He didn't buy flowers, he didn't bring any sacrifices, and he didn't have any expression on his face.

He said to the people in the photo: "You always say that mathematics is the lighthouse of this world, illuminating the way forward for this world. The conjectures written by Fermat have baffled countless mathematicians, including Euler and Ku Ermo, it wasn't proven until 1995, over 300 years ago. You told me to be the one who can light the way. But I didn't. Just do it because it's good, don't you never be able to Be the one groping in the dark?"

"And what you said to me before you left... I couldn't do it either."

"Grandpa, did I do something wrong?"
