Chapter 19 Cats

Yu Xiasheng found that Yu Qiuliang had become much quieter since he actually ran into the ghost.In the past few weeks, Yu Qiuliang didn't go to the Internet cafe, and he didn't skip classes. Although Gu Jia said that he went to school to sleep, he was willing to stay in school anyway.As long as he is willing to go to school, then everything is easy to talk about, Yu Xiasheng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relaxed from the inside out.

Song Ciran didn't seem to notice the change at the same table.It's no wonder that as the date of the college entrance examination is approaching, these graduates are so busy that many details are unintentionally overlooked by them.Yu Qiuliang didn't go out, Song Ciran didn't find it strange, they still stayed together every day, one read extracurricular books, the other did math problems, but neither of them talked much.

Notes surpassed mobile phones and became the most important and commonly used communication tool between them.This is a bit like the ancient Hongyan passing on the book, but Song Ciran's broken handwriting, if Hongyan sees it, Bao Buqi will think that he has been insulted.Yu Qiuliang lay on the table, frowning to identify Song Ciran's characters. He felt that the teacher of the college entrance examination would never give Song Ciran a high score based on this crooked font.

They don't skip classes, but they don't have much fun in school.The days are so boring day by day.Their daily fun is concentrated on passing notes, and the number of times they can pass notes has also decreased.Song Ciran had to do the questions, and Yu Qiuliang had to read the book. They were so engrossed in doing their own things that they couldn't allow themselves to be distracted.

Yu Qiuliang has been thinking about what high school has brought him recently.In all fairness, he didn't really hate his classmates, but he just hated high school.He installed a countdown software on his mobile phone. As early as a few months ago, he entered the date of the college entrance examination into the software. All he had to do was to stare at the dwindling number and watch it gradually become zero. .

The term "living the day like a year" describes the current Yu Qiuliang.Yu Qiuliang took out his mobile phone and habitually looked at the numbers displayed in the software.As soon as this number becomes zero, he can take off his ugly school uniform, which is cold in winter and hot in summer, and the fabric is so poor that it is a headache, he should throw it away as soon as possible; etc. As soon as this number becomes zero, he will be able to usher in a three-month vacation without homework, and he will no longer have to worry about life after returning to school; From the beginning, he has nothing to do with this annoying school... High school is busy. Although high school students all regard the college entrance examination as their goal, Yu Qiuliang is unwilling to take the college entrance examination as a goal, so he is more concerned than other students. Busy: He has too many things he wants to accomplish, but the tight schedule of high school has stumbled his footsteps, leaving him with no free time. If he wants to achieve his goals, he has to work hard to squeeze out time.

"Time is like water in a sponge, as long as you are willing to squeeze, there will always be some time." - this sentence is often used by the class teacher to encourage students, and it is one of the few words that Yu Qiuliang heard.Yu Qiuliang didn't listen to most of what the teachers said, and he threw out a considerable proportion of the chicken soup for the soul.Yu Qiuliang has never believed in chicken soup for the soul, and even felt a little sick to his stomach, but this sentence is very applicable to him, and he feels that Mr. Lu Xun can be trusted.

People are willing to spend time on something only when it arouses people's interest.Some students don't study, not because they don't have time, nor because they are too stupid, in the final analysis, they don't study, just because they don't like to study.It's not that Yu Qiuliang doesn't like studying. The only subject he really hates is high school mathematics, even though he doesn't listen to other teachers' classes very much.Sometimes he also thinks that he is too arrogant, and he thinks maybe he should take a lecture, but the knowledge he is really interested in cannot be found in the high school classroom.

Therefore, every class is basically entangled like this.

The time passed not slowly but not fast. It walked freely, passed through the singing under the national flag, and walked to a leisurely weekend.The sun is very good this Saturday, but it's a pity that Yu Qiuliang has no time to appreciate it, because Yu Xiasheng still has to work overtime today, and he still has to go to school.Even turning into a ghost is still stressful. It seems that death is not the best way to escape.If a person still has to face the pressure of life after death, what difference does it make if he dies or not?Yu Qiuliang was even more confused when he thought of Lu Huaiming.

Is it happier to be a busy ghost than a busy man?

If Yu Xiasheng heard this sentence, the old ghost would be taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said that he thought too much.Yu Qiuliang twirled his pen in boredom, and spread out a book in front of him, but he couldn't read a single word of the book's contents.His mind wandered aimlessly here and there, inhabiting this person and that now and then.

Would it be a pity if it came to the day of leaving high school?When he was in junior high school a few years ago, Yu Qiuliang hated the school's rules and regulations. He didn't like hair that was too short, but the school leaders insisted on a uniform hairstyle.After entering high school, he destroyed all the photos left in junior high school, and he believed that all his classmates were like this.Those hard-to-see heads will be a history that they can't bear to look back on in this life.Until now, when Yu Qiuliang thinks of himself back then, he still feels disgusted: how could he have such an ugly appearance?

Yu Qiuliang thought, if I don't like high school, what is it about it that I don't like?

He really wanted to give a clear answer, but he was so confused that he couldn't speak.

If he really wanted to leave, the cat in school would probably be the one he was most reluctant to part with.

There is an orange cat in the school. It is not very fat, has a strong figure, and is agile.This is the only creature exuding vitality in the whole high school. Yu Qiuliang likes to take Song Ciran to look for cats in the grass when he is in physical education class.Sometimes the cat hides in its nest under the tree, sometimes it climbs the tree by grabbing the trunk, and sometimes it hides under the belly of the doe carved in stone, taking advantage of the shade.

The cat probably finds Yu Qiuliang and Song Ciran very annoying.The stupid human boy always likes to touch the hair on its head, and always likes to scratch its chin.When it was hiding in the grass, it was often found by Yu Qiuliang, and once Yu Qiuliang found it, it would sleep restlessly under the scorching eyes.Even when it climbs a tree or enjoys the shade, Yu Qiuliang comes to see it. Stupid human beings cannot climb trees, nor can they get into the narrow space under the stone carvings.

Yu Qiuliang still likes dogs more, but as long as they are cute little creatures, he actually likes them very much.He teased the cat for a long time, and later the cat also knew him. On summer nights, he and Song Ciran were the first to walk out of the teaching building, and the cat was lying at the door of the building. say hello.Yu Qiuliang was a little bit reluctant to leave the cat.

He has made up his mind that he will never go back to school after the college entrance examination, just like he never went back to junior high school after the high school entrance examination.School is just a stage in his life. After passing this stage, he is no longer the person he used to be. What's the use of returning to the place he used to be?He doesn't want to go back to school, but he can't bear the cat.

If he had graduated, he would no longer have to go in and out of the teaching building, and the cat would no longer have to wait for him on summer nights.

There was a meowing sound suddenly, and a small paw touched Yu Qiuliang's desk, reaching for the books spread out on his desk.At some point, the cat slipped in through the wide open back door, and found Yu Qiuliang's seat with ease.The heating has been turned on recently, and the cat doesn't often stay outside. It has taken a fancy to Yu Qiuliang's position, and often comes to their class to enjoy the heating.

Yu Qiuliang looked up at the Chinese teacher, but she didn't notice, she was still staring at the computer, probably preparing the review courseware for the next class.Taking advantage of the fact that the teacher was only focusing on the computer and ignoring himself, Yu Qiuliang touched the cat's back.The cat patted the back of his hand dissatisfied, and lay down lazily on his lap to sleep.Those round eyes were closed at this moment, and they couldn't see the usual pride, but only meekness and serenity.

It rubbed a few hairs on Yu Qiuliang's body, but Yu Qiuliang didn't mind, since Yu Xiasheng was doing the laundry anyway.He smoothed the cat down, and the cat purred contentedly on his lap.Song Ciran glanced at Yu Qiuliang jealously, and wanted to reach out to touch the cat, but Yu Qiuliang deliberately moved to the side, just not letting him touch it.

Yu Qiuliang felt that the cat was relaxed and happy. After graduation, he thought he would miss the cat, but he was not sure if the cat would miss him.This cat has a lot of friends and travels around every day. Who knows how many people it knows?Maybe Yu Qiuliang was just one of its three thousand beauties in the harem, but it was only because of the heating that she was favored by the Holy Majesty.

The cat's childhood is really very happy.It climbs trees when it wants to, and drills holes when it wants to.Whether it's in a daze or looking at the scenery, it's all its freedom. Whenever it doesn't want to watch it, it just shakes its head and falls down to sleep.

After being a ghost, he became sentimental.Yu Qiuliang suddenly felt disgusted with himself.Others are melancholy and sick, with a beautiful appearance. Yu Qiuliang has an ordinary face, which can barely be seen. It has nothing to do with the beautiful country.But if the four words "sorrowful and sickly" are not matched with "overwhelming country and beautiful city", it will be annoying.Yu Qiuliang began to change his pen again. He thought that Song Ciran was not a country that would overwhelm the country. If he really wanted to find a suitable person to match this word, then he could only choose Yu Xiasheng.

Yu Xiasheng, who is all over the country and the city.

pretty good.

Yu Qiuliang tried his best to hold back, so that he didn't let out a destructive laugh.

Yu Qiuliang thinks that after death is actually quite interesting, for example, he can see many things that living people can't see now.It turns out that ghosts don't only come out at night, there are still ghosts wandering around with umbrellas during the day.Yu Qiuliang stared at their big black umbrella, thinking that the surface of the umbrella would probably be scalded by the sun, but if they were hot, the ghosts under the umbrella would not be burned.The ghost girl walking on the street holding an umbrella noticed Yu Qiuliang, she was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he could see them, she became bolder and gave him a wink.

Yu Qiuliang coughed lightly and hid behind Yu Xiasheng.

"You are quite attractive to little girls." Yu Xiasheng smiled politely at the sweet female ghost, then turned his head and said to Qiuliang.

Yu Qiuliang knew what he was going to say next, and immediately followed up: "But don't fall in love early."

"That's a good point." Yu Xiasheng smiled, "You can't do what you want and do what you don't want to do. You can do one thing in front of your face and do the other thing behind your back."

"I want to raise a cat." Yu Qiuliang suddenly made a strange request without thinking.

Yu Xiasheng took out a lollipop from his pocket, peeled off the wrapper and stuffed it into Yu Qiuliang's mouth: "I still have cats and dogs, and one is enough for you. Calm down, little ancestor, you are only half-behaved." More than a month, you continue to be good for a few days, let me rest a little longer."

The expression on his face when he said this was exactly the same as that of Yu Qiuliang's own mother.After moving to the current home, Yu Qiuliang never raised any small animals. At first his mother said that one was enough for him, but then... Yu Qiuliang bit the lollipop into pieces, and the broken pieces were sticky Yes, on his teeth.

"I'm just saying. The cat sheds hair all the time. If you really bring the cat back, you'll have to wash your clothes until you're crazy." Yu Qiuliang jumped off the curb and just happened to stand among the fallen leaves.Yu Xiasheng glanced at him, and said with a nonchalant smile: "You know I'm crazy about washing clothes, but you still play with cats in school all day long?——Don't jump there, your pants are dusty, and you won't go to school tomorrow ?”

"You're so annoying." Yu Qiuliang said casually, "If it's dirty, it's dirty. If the clothes can't dry, I'll sleep at home."

"Don't worry." Yu Xiasheng commented, "If you can be quiet for a while, why would I bother you here?"

Yu Qiuliang kept silent and patted the ashes on his trouser legs.At first he was annoyed by Yu Xiasheng, because Yu Xiasheng forced him to write math problems all night when they first met, but after getting along for a period of time, he felt that the old ghost was quite good.He has lived alone for too long, and he really wants to have someone to accompany him.Song Ciran couldn't live in his house, because Song Ciran had his own home, and he couldn't live in Song Ciran's house, because he was not used to facing other people's parents.He couldn't even face his biological parents, so how could he live in harmony with Song Ciran's parents?Now that he is dead, he should keep a distance from the living. Now when talking about the same kind, he can only think of Gu Jia, Yu Xiasheng, and the uncle he wants to see but is too embarrassed to meet.

Yu Qiuliang really wanted to have someone to accompany him, this sentence is absolutely true, not adulterated at all.If he didn't want Yu Xiasheng to accompany him, he would have kicked Yu Xiasheng out of his house long ago and slept outside on the street.He turned his head to look at Yu Xiasheng, and smiled meaningfully: "Don't rely on your father to spoil you, just do whatever you want."

"You're acting weird today. What books did you read? I told you to read less of those things and learn something useless all day long. When you get home, you talk nonsense." Yu Xiasheng obviously didn't understand what Yu Qiuliang meant. It felt like Yu Qiuliang had read a few more idle books.

It doesn't matter if he misunderstood, Yu Qiuliang didn't intend to explain to him.

The old ghost is really busy. Ever since he lived in Yu Qiuliang's house, Yu Qiuliang hasn't seen him rest for a few days.If Yu Qiuliang were to work in Yu Xiasheng's position, he would quit after a few days, but Yu Xiasheng was different from him. Yu Xiasheng was able to bear it, and he insisted on it for so many years, but he did not resign from this position Up and down.

Yu Qiuliang was lying on the bed happily playing with his mobile phone, his legs were exposed to the air.Now that the heating is on in the north, he doesn’t even wear pajamas and slippers at home. Every night, he only wears a pair of shorts, and sleeps soundly under the covers.He slept soundly, but it was hard for Yu Xiasheng. Yu Xiasheng was not used to having such physical contact with people. Every time Yu Qiuliang slept comfortably, he would lift his legs and clamp him like a big pillow, and he would have to slam With a flick, I woke up from the dream.

But tonight, he doesn't need to worry about not being able to sleep well, because today he works the night shift and can't sleep at all.Yu Xiasheng pinched his watch, took a short rest for half an hour, then jumped up from the bed, picked up his phone and keys and rushed out.

"Are you working overtime again?" Yu Qiuliang called him from the room, elongated his voice, and added the accent on the word "again".Yu Xiasheng's temples were swollen and painful, and he felt a little helpless. While changing his shoes, he replied, "It's overtime. I won't be back at night. Go to bed early and don't run around."

It's so cold outside, ghosts can't stand it even if they go out, which crazy person runs out in the cold?Yu Qiuliang turned over, lay on his stomach and continued to play with his mobile phone. After a few seconds, he began to complain again: "Working overtime every day, working overtime every day, isn't playing games with me at home more fun than working overtime?"

"What kind of game are you playing? Don't you think I'm annoying?" Yu Xiasheng said, "I might not be able to come back tomorrow morning. If you want to skip class tomorrow, just skip class. I don't care about you this time."

Yu Qiuliang muffled "Oh" in the room.He doesn't want to go to school very much, but he doesn't go to school, and there is no other place to go.I don't know if his school uniform can be dried tomorrow. If it can't be dried, he will have to find a pair of dark pants to put on before he can sneak into the school.

That night, Yu Qiuliang went to bed early.He'd bet it was the earliest sleep he'd had in three years.This time he didn't dream, and slept peacefully all night until dawn.He got up earlier than the alarm clock, and the moment he opened his eyes, he found that the room was empty, and Yu Xiasheng really hadn't come back.

Yu Qiuliang skipped breakfast as usual, tidied himself up, and rode his bicycle to school.The school uniform is still dry, thanks to the great invention of heating, and thanks to human science and technology.

He went north to go to school, and when he flew out of the gate of the community, Yu Xiasheng just came back from the south.The moment Yu Qiuliang went to school, Yu Xiasheng couldn't believe his eyes.The old ghost raised his head to look at the sky, and was puzzled to find that the sun still came out from the east.
