a certain Zheng Kexin

She explained the affairs of Xiao Xu's family in a few words, and Zheng Kexin imitated her and summarized the affairs of her own family.

They chatted about trivial matters after dinner, and they could talk nonsense for a long time. When it came to such a big matter of family ruin, the two of them remained silent and silent.

Countless things like suffering can't dispel the depression in their hearts. People just chat and can't help but want to say a few more words, but it boils down to just a few words, crazy, disabled, dead, forgotten up.

KFC, which has always had a prosperous business, was rarely quiet due to the weather. The two of them sat by the window, like when Xiao Xu’s father went crazy when he was young, and Xiao Xu ran to Zheng Kexin’s house in fright—the two children sat by Zheng Kexin’s window. Reading comic books at the desk, Zheng Kexin told stories to Xiao Xu, but Xiao Xu couldn't listen to them, and told her after a while: "He's gone crazy again, and he's still scolding me."

After so many years, some people think that they have escaped from the quagmire, and some people think that they can escape from the quagmire. However, the raised foot only hangs in the air for a moment, and it must be put back after all.

When they meet now, apart from smiling wryly at each other, what should they say? Ask each other how they are.

No, life couldn't be any worse.

"Then what are you going to do in the future?" Zheng Kexin couldn't help shivering as she was seated by the window with some air leakage.

Xiao Xu handed her a piece of French fries: "Father pays the debt, so I am naturally responsible for the disaster he caused. Fortunately, my grandma left the house to me, and I sold it to pay off the debt, so it can be regarded as... how should I put it?" , the wool comes from the sheep?"

Xiao Xu laughed at himself: "It doesn't seem to be going well... Anyway, that's what it means. I don't know what price the house can sell for. If it's not enough, let's continue to think of a way."

The two of them chatted until noon, and when the sun rose above their heads, Xiao Xu answered two phone calls for house inspections, said hello to Zheng Kexin, and left in a hurry.

Through the window, Zheng Kexin could see from the back of Xiao Xu talking on the phone and hailing a taxi that he looked like an adult "going forward".

There were still half of the French fries and mashed potatoes on the table, Zheng Ke took a few mouthfuls absentmindedly, and sure enough people have different tastes, she still didn't accept it well, of course it might be that Xu Niannian fed her too much.Just as he was thinking about it, he put down the phone on the table and vibrated, which alarmed the high school students who were dating under the guise of a lecture at the next table.

Xu Niannian sent a message to ask her: "I'm walking to the supermarket after class, and I want to buy some strawberries to make candied haws. What do you want for lunch, I'll buy something to go back."

Every time Zheng Kexin meets Xiao Xu, she has a very real sense of powerlessness. This powerlessness does not come from Xiao Xu, but because human beings do not understand the joys and sorrows. Empathy is a very idealized state. To say a thousand words and ten thousand things, what you can get from others is often "I only think they are noisy" and something better than "I only think they are noisy", I am here.

And Xiao Xu is one of the rare people who can afford empathetic conversation. Some outsiders only feel sympathy for the encounter. They have faced it hand in hand.

It is precisely because of this that no matter whether the content of the conversation is good or bad, two people sitting in front of each other with the mess on their backs can make people breathless.

As soon as he opened his mouth, what he said was not Yang Jian's words.

So every time Xiao Xu left, Zheng Kexin would sit alone in KFC for a while, picking a place by the window to bask in the sun, as if this could dispel the moldy smell that couldn't be driven away.

But today it is no longer needed, and there is a brighter sun in the world.

She reported the names of a few dishes, and just put the phone in her pocket and stood up when the phone rang. Su Yingyu kicked Zheng Kexin back to the underworld with a word, and she said: "Your grandma is fine, mom is thinking, later Let your grandma go home for two days, and you can clean up at home in advance, okay?"

Zheng Kexin didn't know how she responded, but her attitude was good anyway, the two of them had a polite and friendly conversation, and then she hung up the phone before Su Yingyu could blame herself.In a blink of an eye, the bus started, and Zheng Kexin came to his senses, forgetting whether he had swiped his card or not.

She raised her head and glanced out of the window, but she didn't know who would be the master of the brain or her legs first - this is the route to the supermarket to find Xu Niannian.

Xu Niannian's remedial class is in the center of the city, and the nearby supermarket is only two stops away from KFC, and he arrives in a blink of an eye.Now that the end of the new year is approaching, the number of customers in the supermarket has doubled compared to usual. Xu Niannian is neither tall nor short, and his height is not noticeable. When he stops at the most crowded vegetable section, only the tip of his head is exposed.

But Zheng Kexin just took a look, and he knew who in the crowd was from their family.

Xu Niannian thought about Zheng Kexin's taste. Originally, he wanted to buy some palm treasures. He ate a lot of spicy and spicy food on weekdays. Today, he could make some hot and sour food. However, when he arrived at the fresh food section, he watched an aunt in front of him buy the last one. Xiao Bao, the original plan was suddenly disrupted, and he suddenly lost his mind.

Changes can never keep up with the plan. She walked all the way and stopped to see nothing. She was not interested in anything. The few things she liked to eat were also put down today. She wandered to the end of the stall, and she remembered that the candied haws that she said she wanted to make hadn’t been bought yet. , Hastily turned back to buy strawberries.

There are so many people in this area, Xu Niannian turned around suddenly, the man behind him didn't have time to brake and saw him bumping into her, Xu Niannian's nerves were tense for a moment, there were people everywhere and there was no place to hide, she was caught as soon as she slipped her foot He tripped and immediately fell to the side.

Then her hand was grabbed by someone, Zheng Kexin suddenly appeared from behind the man, gave her an opposing force, and protected her to hide aside.

In the chaos, it was unclear who stepped on whose foot, and a woman cursed "Ouch": "What are you doing so recklessly, watch it."

Zheng Kexin stepped back while apologizing, and almost stepped on another uncle.She doesn't like shopping very much, and she gets a headache when she sees human-shaped mountains and seas. Su Yingyu, who is in charge of the new year, has never called her - someone at home must watch Sheng Yunming.

When did Lincheng have so many people?

"Why are you here?" Xu Niannian asked her with both surprise and joy as the sweat from her brow was squeezed out.

Zheng Kexin chewed and swallowed the troubles of the half-day tour between the underworld and the yang in the morning. When she felt her palms were sweaty, she let go of Xu Niannian's hand, then took her other hand again, and said with a bright smile, "I'm afraid of you!" There are too many things to carry."

Mainly miss you, glad to see you.

Xu Niannian doesn't look old, and has a doll's head. He eats happily in winter and gained a little weight. His face is a bit round when his chin is covered by a scarf. The whole person looks different from usual, fluffy, Zheng Kexin subconsciously Poke her face.

"I didn't want to buy too much..." Xu Niannian looked up at her, "It's a good thing you're here, the supermarket is on sale today, and there are too many people, I'll run here after class, it's not even noon yet, A lot of things are sold out, palm treasures and small ribs are gone, I was just about to call to ask you what to eat..."

Sensing Zheng Kexin's distraction, she stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her: "Kexin?"

Zheng Kexin's eyes didn't fall on Xu Niannian, but the object of her thoughts was clear. She fell asleep in class and was suddenly startled by a teacher's question: "Huh?"

"Ah, what? I asked you what to eat—you don't have to say anything!"

"It's fine..." Zheng Kexin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, have you heard of 'Shanfen Dumpling'?"

The two lingered in the supermarket until one o'clock in the afternoon, and finally chose raw fried rice and duck blood vermicelli soup at the entrance of the supermarket for lunch.

Because Zheng Kexin's proposal was too troublesome, Xu Niannian leaned aside and checked Baidu, and found that now that she was going home to do this, the two of them would not be able to eat until the next morning.

This is the main reason, and the secondary reason is that Zheng Kexin is lazy today, and Lai Pi doesn't want to wash the dishes.

The two of them clicked on it by coincidence. The raw pan fried at the door was just out of the oven. It was hot and hot. flavors.

A hand trembled, and there was too much sesame oil in the duck blood vermicelli soup. Zheng Kexin choked and coughed, and tears came out.

Surrounded by noisy hawking, clerks yelling, and farther away, there is the sound of scanning codes at the cashier, and the rattling of cabinets full of change.Hairtail fish will be on sale every new year and festival, and a woman in the distance shouted: "31 bags, there are only ten bags left."

Zheng Kexin coughed and laughed with red eyes, Xu Niannian gave her the hand that passed the paper: "What are you laughing at?"

Zheng Kexin looked at her deeply: "When I was in junior high school, Ning Zhi had a lot of headaches writing essays. Xu Zhong failed in the traditional exam essays. In the self-study class, the teacher would put him in the activity room to memorize excellent essays. Ning Zhi was fined to write several essays silently. I was so angry." I want to die with Tao Yuanming."

Xu Niannian didn't understand what she wanted to say, so she said "Mmm", and heard Zheng Kexin continue.

"Later on her birthday, Qiao Yuan gave her a large volume of "Haizi Poetry Collection". The hardcover edition is as thick as two dictionaries."

Qiao Yuan prescribes the right medicine, with good intentions, and wants Ning Zhi to memorize more words that can be used to answer the questions, but Ning Zhi didn't read it at all, and the thick book like a brick was directly used to press the curtains——Lincheng's year-round stuff The north-south wind blows randomly, and the curtains always slap people's faces.

On the contrary, Zheng Kexin memorized a few words by mistake.

Some classes in junior high were loosely managed. Zheng Kexin lacked sleep for a long time, and when she couldn't hold on anymore, she would switch seats with Ningzhi.

One morning, I don’t remember what class it was, but I remember it was the last class. The two girls at the front desk were discussing what to eat for lunch. The sports class downstairs was playing with sandbags after [-] runs. It was fine at eleven o’clock. The temperature was just right, and the wind rushed into the room, blowing the pages of the book with a splash, and a beam of sunlight hit the two lines of typeface.

It said on the paper: "You come to the world, you want to see the sun"

Xu Niannian still didn't hear the important point, and asked: "What happened later?"

"Later." Zheng Kexin came to her senses, "Later that book was used by Ning Zhi to press the curtains, and it was smashed after graduation. Ning Zhi still only knew one sentence, which is the one everyone knows—from tomorrow , to be a happy person, only this sentence."

Xu Niannian smiled: "Qiao Yuan must be mad."

"Hmm...maybe." Zheng Kexin recalled for a moment, then nodded uncertainly, "So Qiao Yuan gave him an idiom dictionary instead for his second birthday."

The two of them ate and drank enough, bought a bag of strawberries and a bag of bananas and headed back home-they stopped eating if they couldn't get them in Zhangzhongbao, but the candied haws still had to be made.

There were two bags in total, and each person carried one. Zheng Kexin was good at picking up dough when she was a child, and the strawberries in the bag made her heart itch.

"I haven't washed it yet!"

Zheng Kexin didn't hide, just let her step on it happily, Xu Niannian got angry a few times and saw that it didn't work, so he didn't bother to bother, turned around and peeled a banana by himself.

Zheng Kexin put down the strawberry and asked cautiously: "Why don't you go home and eat it, the wind is strong on the road, drinking the cool wind makes your stomach feel uncomfortable."

Then Xu Niannian got a big eye knife.

When Ning Zhi was tortured by the composition and lost his temper, he always sulked at the poor "Haizi Poetry Collection", complaining about what a happy life it is to feed the horse and chop firewood, and then saying that the small house by the sea is difficult to deal with moisture, and that he must be rheumatoid when he is old .In short, the more wronged he was, the more picky he was, and then he found an excuse to fight Qiao Yuan.

Anyway, beating is pro-swearing or love, but An Ji always feels that Haizi is innocent.

Haizi is innocent, Zheng Kexin took Xu Niannian's hand and thought.

When you come to the world, you want to see how well Sun Yang walks on the street with your sweetheart, how well he writes, it is better to be ignorant.

Although he is a high school student who is about to take the college entrance examination in half a year, people are not machines after all. Zheng Kexin was very childish today, and he found a few nonsense words that sounded reasonable to convince Xu Niannian not to do homework in the afternoon, and spend a whole day with her. Watching boring English TV on the sofa.

Just this one time, Sheng Yunming will be back.

So the two quickly fell asleep with a stomach full of soup and pasta. Sure enough, English listening is a good hypnotic medicine.

During this period of time, Zheng Kexin was in a very delicate state of insomnia, and the exhaustion from closing her eyes for a long time completely overwhelmed her.She didn't feel the taste of rest. The most intuitive feeling was "dead". The feeling of weakness of "the battery is about to run out" that she hasn't experienced for a long time made her uncomfortable, so that Xu Niannian, who was sleeping beside her, didn't even get up. aware.

Xu Niannian didn't disturb her. After waking up, she got up and turned off the TV that was playing the ending song, and then covered her with a blanket, then quietly entered the kitchen and closed the door.

A bag of strawberries was eaten by Zheng Kexin all the way, Xu Niannian ordered some, and there were still fourteen more to string.

Set up a pot to boil rock sugar over low heat, Xu Niannian cut up the strawberries and bananas and threaded them with bamboo skewers, and put two small sesame seeds on top of the bananas, making it look like a snowman.It would take a while to eat the wrapped sugar, Xu Niannian thought about it for a while, seeing that Zheng Kexin hadn't woken up yet, she thought about going back to the house to get a vocabulary book to memorize.

She got up late today, and in a hurry, she mistook the physics booklet for an English booklet. Fortunately, she and Zheng Kexin are in the same class. The books they use are basically the same on weekdays. Xu Niannian searched on the table and found the school easily. The "English Vocabulary Handbook" handed out.

Xu Niannian has a problem with English. It is difficult to memorize everything from vocabulary to composition. The book in her hand will be broken by her. On the first page, abandon and ability are drawn with red pens and blue pens, and straight lines and curves. Zheng Kexin checked She gets a headache every time she sees the words.

Zheng Kexin's own books don't have those fancy markings. The forgetting rate of the words she memorized is less than 5.00%, which is only a little worse than the fairy who "recites one page and tears one page". draw something.After Xu Niannian was at the same table with her, she discovered this problem, but she didn't take it to heart.

She opened the book in her hand, and the pages were clean without any markings, but there would be a thick fork every other page or two.The area is not large, but it has been drawn many times by people, each one is very heavy, and the black handwriting oozing out can be seen on the back of the page.

Xu Niannian sighed, Zheng Ke had a lot of things on his mind and didn't tell anyone, probably all the boredom and powerlessness in these years can only be solved by crossing on paper.

Those crosses strung up most of the book, and then they all disappeared at some point, Xu Niannian froze for a moment and turned back, thinking that he had read it wrong...

Then she saw the "Nian" which filled half a book.

Every page is densely packed, but every word is written very lightly, as if afraid of hurting the paper.

The author has something to say: Zhangzhongbao, Shengjian and Duck Blood Vermicelli Soup--the Guangshan Noodle Dumpling in the World--I saw it when I was visiting station B in the middle of the night while writing the manuscript.

When Ning Zhi was tortured by the composition and lost his temper, he always sulked at the poor "Haizi Poetry Collection", complaining about what a happy life it is to feed the horse and chop firewood, and then saying that the small house by the sea is difficult to deal with moisture, and that he must be rheumatoid when he is old .In short, the more you are right, the more picky you are, and then find an excuse to fight with Qiao Yuan-I prefer noisy relationships.

The abandon and ability on the first page are painted with red pens and blue pens, and straight lines are drawn with curved lines-and highlighters, yay.
