Time makes you fall

◎Milk tea◎

Zhu Yao was taken aback.

He stared at the mountain bike wheels rolling over the floor tiles again and again: "Of course I will laugh, I don't have any problems."

Qu Qingcheng smiled and didn't speak.

The two walked past the gazebo, the weeping willow, the ice cream stall, and the old man in a white vest enjoying the shade by the roadside.

Zhu Yao said, "Here we are."

Qu Qingcheng: "Ah, there really is. The winding path leads to secluded places, and there is a hidden cave."

Zhu Yao smiled again: "You are really a Chinese teacher."

"Could it be false?" Qu Qingcheng glanced at her: "Why do you say that?"

"Speech, polite."

Qu Qingcheng smiled: "Yes, my speech is too written, and I have been trying to change it, but I can't change it."

"It's fine if you don't change it."

"Well, that's fine."

Qu Qingcheng walked into the laundry with the bag, Zhu Yao pushed the mountain station and waited at the door.

After a while, Qu Qingcheng came out: "This laundry is fine."

Then he asked Zhu Yao: "Which way do you go home? Do you need to go back to the school gate?"

"No need." Zhu Yao pointed to the left: "Just go this way."

"Okay, then hurry up and go, your parents should be waiting for you for dinner."

Zhu Yao asked: "Do you know how to walk back to the school gate?"

"Then what don't you know?" Qu Qingcheng turned around with a smile and left: "Goodbye, Zhu Yao."

Zhu Yao looked at her back for three seconds.

"Hey."

"It's the other way around."

Qu Qingcheng: ...

She turned back to Zhu Yao: "Why don't you tell me how to get there again, walk through it again, and I should be able to understand."

Zhu Yao pushed the mountain bike: "I'll take you back to the school gate."

"No, it's so late, your parents should really wait."

"No one is waiting for me."

"Ok?"

"My mother... we are all busy."

"That can't delay your dinner time, you are growing up."

"... What kind of body do you have at the age of 17?" Zhu Yao urged her: "Let's go, it will take you back to the school gate in 5 minutes, and you will waste time even more."

Qu Qingcheng seemed to be fully aware of his ability to recognize the way: "...Okay."

The two walked back together side by side, separated by a bicycle.

Zhu Yao glanced at Qu Qingcheng's heel, which was about five centimeters.

Just like that, she was probably taller than Qu Qingcheng by the thickness of two palms.

She remembered that Qu Qingcheng said to her just now: "You little child."

I also remembered that my mother said to her before: "Lifeless, not like a child!"

The setting sun hangs in the sky, like a duck egg yolk about to ooze oil.

"How do you bring your clothes to school for washing?" Zhu Yao asked.

"Starting tomorrow, I will spend a lot of time studying late at night. It's too late to go back, so I can't go to the laundromat over there."

"Oh."

No more words.

Silently, I walked past the old man wearing a white vest enjoying the shade by the roadside, the ice cream stall, the weeping willow, and the gazebo.

Turn another corner and you will see the school gate.

Qu Qingcheng suddenly asked: "Then what do you eat at home?"

"Ok?"

"Dinner." Qu Qingcheng said, "Didn't you say that your parents are busy?"

"Oh, there's the nanny, don't know what she did today."

Qu Qingcheng asked: "Auntie's cooking is delicious?"

"Not tasty at all."

Maybe it was because this complaint showed a little childishness, Qu Qingcheng smiled.

"Auntie didn't wait for you to go home, did she?"

"No, I'll leave after cooking. I'll go back and heat it myself."

"Then if you have time, I'll treat you to milk tea."

Qu Qingcheng's slender fingers pointed at C's milk tea shop at the gate of the school: "How about that one? I just saw that it looks very popular."

She smiled and said, "As a thank you for helping me guide the way."

Zhu Yao thought about it, originally wanted to say "no", but for some reason finally said "yes".

She parked her mountain bike on the side of the road and followed Qu Qingcheng.

Qu Qingcheng was looking at the signboard: "What do you want to drink? What is this restaurant most famous for?"

Zhu Yao: "Taro ball milk tea."

"Is it delicious?"

"do not know."

"Haven't you ever drank?"

"No."

Qu Qingcheng looked a little surprised: "Are you so self-disciplined?"

"Not at all."

It's just that the reason "it's strange to buy milk tea alone" seemed difficult to say, so I simply kept silent.

Qu Qingcheng didn't ask further, just said: "The taro balls are too much for your stomach, right? We're going to have dinner soon, how about some sweet-scented osmanthus milk tea?"

Zhu Yao: "I want to try taro ball milk tea."

Qu Qingcheng smiled again: "You little kid."

When Zhu Yao was thinking about whether to take a step back and say, "Forget it, I want osmanthus milk tea", Qu Qingcheng stepped forward and said to the clerk, "Two cups of taro ball milk tea."

After paying the money, it was returned to Zhu Yao.

Zhu Yao asked: "You drink too? Are you afraid you won't be able to eat dinner?"

Qu Qingcheng: "It's not easy for me to get along with the students."

As he said that, he laughed: "Forget it, I'm not lying, I'm the one who is greedy." Touching my stomach: "I wanted to lose weight."

Zhu Yao took a glance: "You still need to lose weight? So thin."

Qu Qingcheng shook his head exaggeratedly: "You don't understand the troubles of adults, if you don't pay attention, you will gain weight."

The clerk called them out, and Qu Qingcheng went to get them.

The clerk reminded: "It's better to drink now."

Qu Qingcheng came back and handed the milk tea to Zhu Yao, imitating the clerk and saying, "It's better to drink it now."

Zhu Yao smiled, and reached for the straw in Qu Qingcheng's hand, Qu Qingcheng flinched.

"You didn't choose?"

"Choose what?"

"Straw color."

Only then did Zhu Yao notice that there were straws in Qu Qingcheng's hand, one pink and one purple.

Zhu Yao looked at it and took the pink one.

Piercing the plastic film of the milk tea, there was a "bang", Qu Qingcheng stood beside her, and also used the straw to create a small explosion.

Zhu Yao took a sip, and a big taro ball got stuck in the straw. She sucked it hard, but it didn't work. She sucked it harder again, and it cleared with a "plop".

The sweet milk tea gurgled up, with a slightly greasy aftertaste, but it was delicious.

Qu Qingcheng sipped his own cup and asked Zhu Yao, "Is it good?"

Zhu Yao nodded.

Qu Qingcheng sighed contentedly: "I also feel that it's just a feeling that one sip will make you gain ten catties."

Zhu Yao: "Either don't drink it, or don't think about it after drinking it."

Qu Qingcheng glanced at her with a smile: "You can teach people."

She patted Zhu Yao on the shoulder: "Okay, don't drink, half a glass is enough, I still have to save my stomach and go home for dinner."

Zhu Yao said "hmm".

"I should go too." Qu Qingcheng said, "I'm driving back to school, so be careful when you ride."

"Ah."

"At this time, you should say: Goodbye, Teacher Qu."

Zhu Yao looked at Qu Qingcheng.

Qu Qingcheng smiled: "You haven't called me Teacher Qu yet."

I just took office, and it is still very rare to be called a "teacher".

"Goodbye, Teacher Qu."

"Goodbye, Zhu Yao."

Qu Qingcheng's blue skirt disappeared together with her back.

******

back home.

Zhu Yao put the plastic bag containing the remaining half cup of milk tea and the plastic bag containing the notebook on the table in the entrance.

Bending down to change shoes, all relying on groping, the room was pitch black.

She walked in and turned on the light with a snap.

The two-story high roof is hung with complicated crystal lamps, but it looks more and more empty, the kind of emptiness that will echo when you cry.

Zhu Yao walked into the restaurant, and there were three dishes on the dark green natural marble table.

One fish, one meat, one vegetable.

It had already become icy cold, and there was no trace of heat on the dishes.

This is what Zhu Yao faces every day.

After the nanny cleaned up, she left after making dinner at four in the afternoon. When it was time for dinner, Zhu Yao came to eat alone.

Mom can't come back.

Zhu Yao stared at the three dishes for a while before picking up the fish and putting it into the microwave in the kitchen.

Zizi——Zizi—a fragrance began to overflow, but it was still cold in Zhu Yao's nose.

She put her foot out and kicked the bottom of the microwave cabinet.

There was a dull "boom", echoing in the empty room, as if there was an echo.

Zhu Yao walked out suddenly, walked to the entrance, brought in the plastic bags containing the notebook and milk tea, and sat down at the dining table.

I didn't want to eat, so I sat at the dining table and drank the remaining half cup of milk tea.

In the sweltering weather, the milk tea spoils quickly, and the pantothenic acid is already subtle in the mouth, but the Q-bomb taro balls are still delicious.

Zhu Yao stared at the dark green lines on the marble table in a daze.

Suddenly the door creaked.

Zhu Yao looked up, a little surprised: "Mom?"

Zhu Yinglan walked in with her platinum bag, went to the refrigerator in the restaurant, took out the ice water jug, poured a glass and drank it down.

"Why did you come back suddenly?"

"This is my home! I still want to say hello to you when I come back?"

With an annoyed tone, Zhu Yao stopped talking.

In the room, only the pendulum of the quartz clock was heard, swinging and making the sound of "tick, tick".

Zhu Yao spoke again: "How was your day?"

"What else can I do?" Zhu Yinglan sneered: "I'm so tired, I made time to have dinner with the contractor, and I was let go."

Zhu Yinglan started building materials business only when she found out that her ex-husband was looking for a mistress. Maybe with her ex-husband's contacts, maybe with her hard work, she gradually made her way to the world and achieved great success.

Now it is hard to tell whether she is richer or her ex-husband is richer, but his temper is getting more and more irritable.

Zhu Yao stopped talking again.

Zhu Yinglan glanced at her, together with the milk tea on the table: "Why don't you have dinner?"

"I don't like fish, can I tell the nanny..."

"No!" Zhu Yinglan shouted: "Nutrition needs to be comprehensive, do you know that? I'm exhausted outside every day, and I find a nanny to cook for you. It's good for you. You don't eat serious meals. What kind of milk tea do you drink? What a good thing that is. ?..."

She scolded viciously: "Master, if I find out that it was Qi Shengjun and Xiao Mi who tripped me up and robbed my client..."

For so many years, I still called my father's wife who later married "Xiaomi", and I never got over the hurdle in my heart.

"You are like your father, you don't understand people at all, you are not a good thing!"

Zhu Yao didn't want to be a target for Zhu Yinglan to vent her anger, so she stood up with milk tea, then picked up the plastic bag with the book on the table and the schoolbag on the chair.

Zhu Yinglan was even angrier: "Put it down! Don't drink!"

Zhu Yao held the milk tea and looked at Zhu Yinglan without saying a word.

"Don't look at me with that look!" Zhu Yinglan walked towards Zhu Yao step by step, trembling with anger, "You're not stingy, just like your father."

"Mom, this milk tea..."

With a "snap", the slap fell.

Zhu Yao was stunned.
