Chapter 22

Bai Maosheng, who planned to chat with Yinxiu for an hour, was forced to extend the time, and was so sleepy that his upper and lower eyelids were fighting, and Yinxiu persuaded him to sleep on her small bed for a while.Yin Xiu sat aside and opened the curtains to let the warm sunshine in.She didn't have the habit of reading in her spare time, and there was no entertainment in the small room, so she took out the old and new menus brought back from the restaurant and scribbled on them.

Write down the name and price of the new dish first, and after writing a full page and find that Bai Maosheng is still sleeping soundly, then write down the name and price of the old dish again.

Bai Maosheng's side face was a little baby fat, and his breath was sprinkled on Yinxiu's fragrant quilt. When she was confused, she pulled down the quilt to cover her nose because she was afraid of the cold, and it was Yinxiu who quietly pulled down the quilt to help her expose her nostrils.

Yin Xiu has reorganized the menu three times according to the cuisine, pricing and even the speed of the back kitchen. She also fell asleep when she was carrying the prices of the three types of wine on the new menu and the discounted price, and dozed off while supporting the small table.

Bai Maosheng woke up in the bed. She lay down and let the sun caress her face. The clothes hanging on the two-color twist-shaped clothesline on the window were swinging. A down jacket that Yinxiu had worn for many days was squeezed in the last inside.

Yu Ren hasn't come yet?Bai Maosheng quietly got up, put on his shoes and wanted to find Yu Ren, but Yinxiu was already awakened, she wiped her eyes, "I'll go see your classmate."

Yu Ren sat at the entrance of Yuan Huifang's China Unicom franchise store and accompanied San'er, seeing her busy charging phone bills, and refilling Yuan Huifang's big teacup.Yuan Huifang secretly looked at the weird girl in front of him while drinking water, "Are you from Baizhou City too?"

"Yes, auntie." Yu Ren originally wanted to help little Yuan Liu with work, but the five-year-old's ability to recognize faces by hearing sounds and the speed of starting his short legs far exceeded her imagination.Yuan Huifang even gestured to the TV with his nostrils, and Yuan Liu clearly lowered the volume.

"Is little Yuan Liu in kindergarten?" Yu Ren was concerned about San'er, and asked a lot of questions about learning to eat and drink. After getting a negative answer, she looked at San'er with some concern, "Then how does she know that there is a charge for operating the computer? "

"I don't know either. They taught me when I was assigned this. How could I understand? If there is no way, let Xiaoliu come, and she can recognize Arabic numerals, and she can learn it in three times." Yuan Huifang was a little proud when talking about this matter.Gradually, after chatting for a while, she knew that the girl was from the No. [-] Middle School, so she took a closer look.She didn't let Yuan Liu play with her sister until she had nothing to say, and she could play whatever she wanted.

So Yuan Liu moved Xiao Mazha to sit next to Yu Ren's legs, and her big eyes met her small eyes.Yu Ren took out the pen and paper from his schoolbag, "Shall I teach you how to write?"

Yuan Liu nodded, and Ren Yuren held her hand in the pen position, and the two of them taught and learned until 03:30 in the afternoon.

Yu Ren found that Yuan Liu was very smart, and now she could write her own name and recognized Yu Ren's name.In addition, I also learned a few poems, which Yu Ren kept firmly in his heart: one trip two or three miles, four or five houses in Yancun, six or seven pavilions, and ten flowers at every turn.Yuan Liu not only knew how to recite, but also learned how to write.

When Yu Ren was praising the child, Yinxiu went downstairs and looked at her and smiled, "She's awake." Yu Ren looked at Yinxiu again, feeling an unspeakable calmness in her.

Together with San'er, he even forgot the time. Fortunately, Bai Maosheng didn't get bored and made up for it.Yu Ren picked up his schoolbag and touched Xiao Yuanliu's cheek reluctantly, "Then sister is gone."

Yuan Liu's eyes suddenly widened, and her small hands grabbed Yu Ren's clothes and refused to let go.This gentle elder sister not only taught her to read and write, but also knew how to blow her beard and stare and throw slippers. Yuan Liu couldn't bear her to leave.Yu Ren took out his favorite cartoon ballpoint pen, "This is for you to practice writing, next time my sister will teach you a new one."

And next time?Yuan Liu took the pen hesitantly, "Thank you sister."

Yu Ren was worried about his life, and after being dragged by Bai Maosheng to bid farewell to Yin Xiu, he turned his head to look at Yuan Liu. Bai Maosheng didn't understand, "Five-year-olds are so fun?"

"It's fun." Yu Ren didn't tell Yuan Huifang and Yuan Liu his identity, but became a stranger all afternoon.But she explained to Bai Maosheng the origin of the child and herself, and when it was dark, she also went to Bai Maosheng's house.

"Such twists and turns? What kind of fate is this!" Bai Maosheng pulled Yu Renbeng, "How about it? Will there be a surprise when you go out with me?"

Yu Ren also blushed with excitement, "Yes! I want to thank you Uosheng." Remembering that she had neglected Rabbit Monster all afternoon, she bit her lower lip, "Are you not angry?"

"Why are you angry? Yinxiu's bed is so comfortable to sleep on. Hey, she also left me a crispy duck. I ate three pieces and put the rest in my bag." Bai Maosheng was happier because she and Yu Ren had a rare relationship After a free night, "Yu Ren, why don't you go home, stay at my house tonight, and go back to No. [-] Middle School tomorrow morning." Shake Yu Ren's hand again, "OK?"

Yu Ren said yes, and when Bai Maosheng went out to buy dinner, he spread out the book to write papers, and saw a few pages of Xiao Yuanliu's words while doing calculations on the draft paper, and she read and reread happily.It was six o'clock in the afternoon, and she had two sets of math papers and one set of English exercises to do.In addition, there are several test papers in other subjects.The homework assigned by the No. [-] Middle School teacher is like a competition, and each of them wants to grab the attention of the students, regardless of whether they can finish it or not.

There are really good people who can finish writing, and Yu Ren is one of them.She likes to go from difficult to easy, scan the test questions to pick out the difficult ones and concentrate on completing them, and the simple questions are eliminated in the middle of the class or other fragmented time.Even if the environment is changed and she is at Bai Maosheng's house, she can immediately enter the state.

When the smell of food came, Yu Ren was still bowing his head to solve the problem.

Bai Maosheng put the food on a plate and put it in a pot to keep warm, poured a glass of water for Yu Ren, and looked at Yu Ren with his chin propped on the opposite side of the dining table.

It is often said in operas that "quietness is like a flower shining in water, with delicate beauty hidden in the brows and corners of the eyes." Miao Yuan, a classmate who sang a rivalry with Bai Maosheng, has big double eyelids. Will make her play and then laugh.When Brother Bao couldn't continue singing, he sneered, and the tigress-like sister Lin would sweep away her pretentious weakness, pointing at Bai Maosheng and looking at the teacher, "Teacher, Bai Maosheng is laughing again, I want to change my partner!"

Bai Maosheng had no choice but to say "I'm sorry" to the teacher, apologize to Sister Lin, close his eyes and calm down, and forced Miao Yuan to be Yu Ren, and the play continued.

Sister Lin on the opposite side may not be suitable for the dream of Red Mansions at this time, on the contrary, it is more suitable for the eighteen lovers in "The Butterfly Lovers".Bai Maosheng tapped his fingers on the table lightly, humming a libretto in his heart and glanced at Yu Ren.She noticed that Yu Ren's face became thinner after high school, and when he lowered his head, the shallow groove on the eyelids would be exposed, turning the inner double into outer double.Her concentrated appearance has not changed, and even the eyelashes are shining with the intelligence that Bai Maosheng admires.

Bai Maosheng also felt that her eyesight was better at this time. She saw the fluff on Yu Ren's face, the curvature on the outside of the nose, and a tiny black mole above the corner of his mouth.Sometimes when she looked at it, she felt that Yu Ren became strange, and after a while, she felt that Yu Ren was back.

After solving the most difficult problem, Yu Ren pressed his swollen forehead and eyebrows, and Bai Maosheng said, "I'll help you."

The singing girl had a watery voice, and her fingertips felt warm. Bai Maosheng stood behind Yu Ren and pressed her forehead for her naturally, rubbing it while talking, "My mother does the same when my master is dizzy."

Yu Ren's scalp started to numb the moment Bai Maosheng leaned against her back, and that strange itching buzzed around her head, quickly channeling the heat from the sky to her heart.It was the scent of soap on Bai Maosheng's body that woke her up.She took the other's hand, "I... I will do it myself."

"Oh." Bai Maosheng withdrew his hand, looked at her pitifully and distressedly, "It's hard to study." Then he brought the hot food in the pot, "Eat first, and then write after eating."

"It's okay, all the difficult questions are done." Yu Ren sat down after washing his hands, and Bai Maosheng brought her food, "We eat two meals together a day." She took two mouthfuls of food, still looking at Yu Ren and smiling.

"What's wrong?" Yu Ren asked.

"It's nothing." Bai Maosheng lowered his head to pick up the rice, "Shall we play games at night?" In fact, two people playing on a computer is quite boring, and the other person is destined to just watch the battle from the sidelines.

"Watching a movie?" Yu Ren thought for a while.

"Okay." Bai Maosheng couldn't help laughing, and the rice particles leaked onto the table, "Yu Ren, I'm so happy. If only I could do this every week?" Bai Maosheng was thinking about when the digital camera will be repaired, so she and Yu Ren Go out to play and take pictures.He also thought of taking her to visit the drama school, and let her see another romantic look of herself after putting on makeup.Still wanting to do nothing, he and Yu Ren faced each other to grill rice and pull duck legs.

They also watched a comedy together, checked each other's eyes at 09:30 in the evening and went outside to buy snacks for supper.Leaning, clinging, head to head, face to face, one said that he went to Shanghai to study Fudan, and the other wore a fleece hat and said that I will go to Shanghai to continue singing, and when I earn money, I will take you to eat all over Shanghai.

But Bai Maosheng was still lethargic, he only fell asleep in the afternoon, and continued to yawn at eleven o'clock in the evening.After bathing and changing clothes with Yu Ren, Bai Maosheng scratched his nose and glanced at his mother's empty bedroom, "I'm going to sleep in that room, good night."

Yu Ren felt that familiar tightness came back again. It was the coldness of Bai Maosheng's hands and feet when he was pressed against the wall and kissed his face, and it was the dizzy and hot feeling when she leaned back and pressed his forehead.She was leaning against the door in her white quilted pajamas, and she couldn't speak eloquently in class meetings, nor did she have the confidence and courage to speak her mind.

She has known for a long time that she is a coward, from the day San'er was taken away when she couldn't move.Counseling in front of Bai Maosheng, Yu Ren, who is born to worry about his life, is still thinking about what is the blankness in his heart.The moment she was expecting, fearing, shy, vague, and somehow destined seemed to be in front of her eyes, but Yu Ren still couldn't move her feet.

"Hmm." That was all she could say.And Bai Maosheng waved brightly, "I put an extra quilt on the head of the bed for you, add it when it's cold."

"Oh." Parents' short stories can extinguish the fire that has just ignited in their hearts.Yu Ren closed his eyes and took a deep breath, still analyzing why he was so unfocused.It must be because her aunt came here in elementary school, three years before Bai Maosheng.From the perspective of maturity, it can completely explain Bai Maosheng's unmoved.

She was dumbfounded when she was singing.Talented scholars and beautiful ladies have been humming for so many years, and at the end of the day, they will only ask Yu Ren to add an extra quilt.Yu Ren's cowardice is also reflected in the fact that she is good at slandering others. This kind of labeling behavior can't erase her loss, but instead goes around like a red ink.

Go to sleep, the English teacher who is good at surprise attacks will definitely take a quiz tomorrow morning, and before that, Yu Ren has to get up two hours earlier to complete the rest of the homework.

Yu Ren turned around to close the door, and when there was still a gap left, there was an "ahhh" sound from behind, which scared her to open the door, only to see Bai Maosheng hopping there with her fingers, "Why didn't you say anything? Why?" Yu Ren asked again. Anxiously and angrily pulled Bai Maosheng's hand to see the injury.

The rabbit monster who was doing his job just put his hands behind his back, "It's nothing...it's nothing." She looked down at the floor, her teeth were still shaking up and down, and then she closed her eyes as if she had made up her mind, and a cold kiss fell on Yu Ren's left. face, "Sleeping."

After Bai Maosheng fled at the speed of light, he closed the door of his mother's bedroom.Yu Ren covered the coolness, the heat wave came from her heart, and her head was buzzing again. After she stabilized, she held the door and cursed at Bai Maosheng, whether she could hear it or not, "Bai Maosheng... You two idiots!"

Clumsy as Bai Maosheng also heard the exhausted temperament and traces of sweetness in the scolding, she licked her mouth, put her hands under her head, laughed twice and pulled the quilt to cover her face.
