hot summer gl
In Chapter 1 class, you looked at the Rubik's cube in my hand several times.
I also learned it.Unfortunately, I haven't touched it for many years, and even chess itself has been forgotten by me.
Lan's father came back quickly with the chessboard, and I played chess with him, I played red and he played black.Unlike the way I move pieces quickly, Father Lan plays very slowly.If his hair was a little whiter, I could connect him with the old people in my memory.I kind of like this unsmiling middle-aged man.
In the first game, I lost.
Lan's father said, yes, come on, let's play another game.When he said this, Lan's father showed a slight sense of satisfaction on his face.
So Lan came out after washing the dishes and saw this scene, two people who also frowned slightly were staring at the chess pieces.After losing a game, I started to be cautious.
I caught a glimpse of Lan shrugging his shoulders, but said nothing.She just sits in front of me with the fruit she has cut into pieces, feeds me a few pieces from time to time, and more often comes up with bad ideas beside her.It can be seen that she still knows a little bit, Lan's father should have taught her.
The final result was 2:1, Father Lan won the undisputed victory.
Alright Dad, let Jin take a bath and rest.Lan said to Lan's father after destroying the fruit, and added a sentence at the end, don't always pull people to play chess, isn't there in the computer?
What do you know.Father Lan wrote lightly.
I had no choice but to smile to myself to resolve the embarrassment.In fact, the relationship between the two fathers and daughters is far from being so cold on the surface.For example, Lan put a cup of hot tea in front of his father.
While I was in the shower, I could hear conversations faintly, but not really.I just feel that the house is a bit small and the partition walls are not thick enough.
☆, story
When I got out of the shower, I found that Lan was alone in the living room, so I asked her where was her uncle?
out.Lan simply said that without further explanation.It's past nine o'clock in the evening, and it's cold and windy outside. I can't imagine why Lan's father went out.
Jin, come here.She gestured to me, looking up at me with a smile on her face.Play five chess pieces with me.
I was a little taken aback, Lan urged again.I had to say: what to play with?You can't draw the line directly, can you?
As if he had been prepared for my question, Lan turned over the confiscated chessboard, and it turned out that there were neat squares engraved on the back.Lan said: This is for Go, but it is no different from the Gomoku board.
I deeply suspect that the chess game just now aroused Lan's desire to play chess.If there is a Go board, there will naturally be chess pieces. It seems that I can't escape.However, if Lan's father came back and saw that we were overqualified, would he be offended?
Backgammon is relatively easy for me. After all, I often played with my classmates when I was studying.It's not difficult but can be played for a long time.I resumed the hand speed of Miao Luozi again, almost clinging to Lan Luozi.In this regard, Lan kept wondering if I had played some tricks, and the progress was extremely slowed down by her.
Finally, after Lan lost three games in a row, she pushed the white piece onto the chessboard, feeling quite cheating.stop playing.she hummed.At this time, she looked like a little girl, without feeling depressed at all.
I took the initiative to clean up the mess.Lan's father came back at this moment, half an hour had passed.Lan's father hurriedly greeted us and went back to his room to rest.Lan said he went to bed on time every night.In comparison, my messy schedule really makes me ashamed.Next time I must give up sleeping pills, I made up my mind and said silently, the medicine is three-point poison.
But even with such awareness, it may not be able to change much.We barely slept that night.Lan and I talked all night in the bedroom, more precisely, we told each other stories about the night.Stories that started because of me but I didn't get to be a part of.Stories that I know everything but keep deep in my heart.
Lan did see a psychiatrist, but she didn't ask for leave from the school. Music teacher is an easy job.Lan mostly went to the psychological counseling room recommended by that friend to receive psychological guidance on weekends.She does not rely on medication to regulate, so her condition has come and gone.She said that sometimes she really wanted to call me, but she couldn't press the green call button even though she had clicked on the address book on her phone.Repeatedly, again and again, her condition began to deteriorate.
Like me, I could not sleep all night, lost in the chaos of dreams, unable to sleep peacefully.Lan's mother and I had the wrong memories, and for a while she came to hate me.Although, I've never ruined someone's family or relationship.
Lan's father may have noticed her daughter's abnormality earlier than her, and I seem to understand the meaning of those words.They all bet on me, the bet is the change of the heart, and the loss is the distortion of the heart.
Lan's father began to pay attention to his daughter's condition, and took her to the quiet and peaceful depths of the mountains from time to time.Perhaps to purify one's heart, nature is the best doctor.
But the real turning point came from Lan's mother.
The no longer young woman who had lost her icy exterior.
Lan met her not long after the start of the winter vacation, during a trip.Lan's mother is a little fatter, compared to the skinny figure when she was a model when she was young, she looks like a happy middle-aged woman.Lan recognized her immediately, and also recognized the other woman beside her.Although she had only met her once when she was young.
Lan suddenly rejoiced that his father didn't come with him. The torment of being betrayed by his beloved had already crushed the man's heart, and he could no longer bear this kind of scene—the blow of his mother and his former lover walking together sweetly.Rand presumably did the same.She didn't dare to go forward and let the two recognize her.Weeping sadly in the dark.
For some unknown reason, Lan secretly followed them.For the first time, she discovered that her mother had such a beautiful smile.
Then I called you.Lan said.
At this point we are leaning on our respective soft pillows, breathing steadily.I turned my face to look at her. Under the soft light and shadow, her profile didn't look sad, and she didn't feel fragile or on the verge of collapse.But I think that part of this story must have been cut, so that I couldn't get a glimpse of what kind of complicated mood Lan had at that time, so that he could look at the figure of his mother in the distance again and again.
Um.I stretched out my hand to straighten her hair, not knowing what to say.
Lan smiled at me and said: When I was on the phone, I was always afraid that you would not answer, and my nervous palms were sweating.Jin, I know that although you seem to have no temper, you are more decisive than anyone else when you really set your heart on it.
I am silent.
But luckily you took it.She said again, stretching out her hands for a lazy waist, with a rare playful smile on her face.Otherwise I don't know what to do.
You know I've always been a person who doesn't know how to say no to people.
Yes, what should you do if someone pursues you in the future?If they are a little stronger, you will have nothing to do.Lan said prophetically, with a tone of fate.Although now she is just talking casually.
No... I want to say that no one pursues me, but it's not quite accurate to say that when I think about it.So I asked her: Do you want to hear a story?
She said yes.
So I started to talk about that story: When the girl was in her first year of high school, a very beautiful female teacher came to the class, she spoke very interestingly, and the class was also very distinctive.Not only girls, many people in the class like her, like her occasional coquettishness, like her sudden loud voice, like the stories she shares.A year later, the girl transferred to liberal arts and separated from the female teacher.But luckily, the female teacher taught the two classes next to them.Occasionally, she can still hear her voice during self-study classes, and she can also see her occasionally procrastinating after school.It's a pity that parting is doomed, but the girl didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Another year later, the girl entered the tense senior year of high school, and the female teacher left the school in the same year.Since then, she has never seen the female teacher again.When I looked back later, the girl knew what missing was.
Lan listened intently, and when she heard this, she gave me a thoughtful look.Jin, are you a teacher or a student?
I smiled cryptically, how do you know it wasn't made up by me?
You don't have to make up such a story.
Keep listening, the story is not over yet.I said calmly.
Later, the girl also chose to be a teacher, a language teacher.And when she went to Guizhou, she didn't expect to meet a female teacher, because she knew which city the female teacher lived in, and she went to another city.I can't say why I came here from all the way, people themselves are very complicated.
After one year of teaching was over, the girl returned to her alma mater.Although she is reluctant to part with the students and teachers here.
Lan wanted to say something, but I stopped him with my eyes.
After returning to school, the girl met another special girl, Zhang.She is wise and indifferent, and her hobbies have something in common with girls, just like some of her years ago.History is always surprisingly similar.she thinks.The girl started to contact her because of pure homework problems at first, and then because of some inadvertent incidents, this normal teacher-student relationship has slightly changed.
For example: a poem, several compositions, an explanation.A Rubik's Cube, a song, several emotions.
Lan finally got a chance to interrupt me, Jin, you seem to be reciting a poem, what do you mean?
Who made me a Chinese teacher.While blurting out the words, I was shocked to realize that wasn't this a previous conversation?
This sentence again.Sure enough, Lan was dissatisfied.
Well, I changed my words, let me put it simply.
Zhang is actually a very individual and lonely person. She longs for someone to understand her, but no one around her understands her desire.Zhang became increasingly disappointed, and finally gave up communicating with them what was deep in his heart.Until, after the girl who returned to school to teach appeared.The girl tentatively wrote a poem and handed it in as homework, and the girl did not disappoint her.Zhang continued to keep in touch with the girl until something broke the reassuring state.Maybe it's only when I look back that I know what those emotions are called.
I paused and closed my eyes, letting the dark lumps float in my eyes.
It can be said that the two stories are interlinked.I said.
Lan was silent for a while, she was probably recalling the story just now.My eyes were still closed, my ears were buzzing, and the illusion was truly terrifying.
I still don't understand.Lan said, successfully pulling me out of my drowsiness.
If you don't understand, you don't understand.I said, my body slid down at the same time, the quilt was unbearably cold in the middle of winter night.I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes tightly again.That's not important anymore.I said.
Why is it not important?Lan asked stubbornly, which is rare, you haven't told me who you are!
Both.I can't stand her shaking, said.Well well, the story is false!Lan froze for a moment, and I continued: "Okay, don't shake me."You see it's so late, go to sleep.
I heard her sigh in the dark, I think you're the girl.she says.
☆, very good
The next morning we were woken up by Lan's father, around seven o'clock.Lan answered vaguely, and ran to pull open the curtains. I was still sleeping at that time, and vaguely heard Lan's short exclamation.
Snowing.she told me.
I lost all sleepiness at once, jumped out of bed in my unlined clothes, and went to the window with my slippers on.It was really snow, the gray sky, little snowflakes were falling, and a thin layer of translucent ice had already accumulated by the window.
I couldn't see clearly through the window, so I opened the window, and the cold wind and snowflakes were blowing on my face and neck.It's cold, but also very happy.
This is the first time I saw snow!I said loudly, unable to hide my excitement.
I got it, I got it, Lan said amusedly and helplessly, can't you just dress up and watch it?
I lowered my head, and the chill brought by the snowflakes gradually penetrated into my skin, reaching deep into my bones.I silently closed the window.
Lan's father knocked again, saying he had cooked breakfast.When he walked out of the room, he whispered to me: Don't be crazy with her in the future, just go to bed very late, right?
I froze, a smile widening on my lips.Lan turned to look at me, I think she will feel baffled.
After breakfast, Father Lan started playing chess with me again. I pretended to be casual and asked him, who do you usually play chess with?
The nearly 50-year-old man stopped holding chess in the air for a moment, and then made a move as if nothing had happened.
There are not many people here who can play chess and have patience.He said.
I knew he was alluding to Lan, but the latter was obviously not under his influence, and he was calling someone on the phone, and it sounded like he was dating someone.Lan hung up the phone and said to me cheerfully: Jin, shall we go to the mountain for barbecue later?By the way, and your students too.
Just as I was about to say something, Lan's father moved the chess piece heavily.Nonsense!He shouted, it's so cold up the mountain, what should I do if I catch a cold?
Dad, let's wear more clothes.
That's not OK.Father Lan said while urging me to play chess.There is a lot of snow on the mountain, what if something unexpected happens?I don't care if you go crazy yourself, don't take Xiaojin with you.
I looked at Father Lan, his attitude towards me changed so much in just one night?
Lan made a helpless expression, the two father and daughter are somewhat similar in this regard.
Then dad, let's go at the foot of the mountain, right?And I have made appointments with those students, so I can't miss the appointment temporarily.
Lan's father finally let go, but made a condition, but I will send you there.He said.At this moment, I set up a good game, no matter how Father Lan's next move is, I will give it to the general.Lan's father was slightly stunned, then smiled and said: "That's right, come on, let's play another game."
When we arrived - at the foot of the agreed mountain, there were already more than a dozen people gathered there, dressed in down jackets of various colors and wearing hand-woven pointed hats, they looked like zongzi people.There are scattered black plastic bags at their feet, which are the food brought by each family.Besides the food, Lan and I were also in charge of the heavy and difficult to handle charcoal and grill.Because she has a car.
But I am not interested in paying attention to these. The snow-white scenery along the way attracts me. It seems that there is no other color in the world except silver and white.But it is not the case, the snow is not too big.A little bit of other color can still be seen on both sides of the road.But for a person like me who lives in a subtropical province, this snow is really precious.
Before getting out of the car, Lan's father told me again, call me when you come back later, and don't run around.
After a few perfunctory words, Lan couldn't help thinking of going up the mountain after getting off the car.I didn't comment, just asked her: Why does your father seem to be a different person?
Didn't I tell you yesterday?He is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.Besides, my dad has already played chess with you, just to say that he likes you very much.
At this time, some students took the initiative to help move things, and one of them shouted hello to the teacher.I have to say I was moved.I always thought that people would go out to cool off the tea, but I didn't expect them to still miss me.
I did a rough calculation, and there were twelve people, including me and Lan, a total of fourteen. 4 men and 8 women, including my former department representative.They are already in the second year of high school, and they are divided into arts and sciences. The people in the class have dispersed a lot, which has caused many people to no longer communicate with each other.After all, the wind of reform has not yet blown here.
Teacher, you are really back!How about in Guangxi?Are the students there particularly fond of fighting?someone asked.
Who did you listen to?When she said this, Lan was leading us to a flat land on the mountainside, and she really forgot Lan's father's advice.Fortunately, the stone ladder road laid by the predecessors is not so difficult, but the few boys who moved things suffered.
It was said on the Internet.The man said without thinking.
I have no idea.I say, but my students don't.
Maybe because they noticed the displeasure in my tone, their conversation became much quieter.Lan turned around and smiled: "Really, what's wrong with asking, I have to ask this."Jin loves her students the most, don't you know?
No, I added: I only love students who are not bad.
For some reason, everyone burst into laughter. If there were birds here, they would probably be able to startle a few of them.
Not long after, Lan led us to the destination, where there was a quaint pavilion with four corners bent at the same angle.According to Lan, this pavilion has been here for a long time, and people who usually go up the mountain will take a short rest here.
But, whatever, just enough to keep out the snow.Lan finally concluded.She greeted the group of students to start preparations in an orderly manner.We brought two grills and put them together to seat an average of seven people on each side.Experienced people are responsible for lighting the fire, while the rest sort and put away the ingredients they brought, and they have been skewered before they come.I glanced at it, and it was mostly meat, but there were even sweet potatoes.Are they going to simmer over coals?
In fact, that is also a good taste.
I sit in the middle a little to the left, Lan is on the left, and the representative of Ke is on the left.Six or seven months really can't change anything, except for Nake's frozen red nose, she is almost exactly the same as before.
I haven't asked you yet, do you choose essays or rationale?
The representative of the department raised his literary face, feeling a little nervous, so I chose the truth, teacher.
Good.I wanted to say something more, but my memory didn't work very well at this moment, and I actually forgot whether she was good at liberal arts or science.
After the charcoal was ignited, the temperature rose a bit, and the heat slowly grew.Even the breath of the people around them was tinged with warmth. In fact, this was their own party.Rand pushed several skewers of meat—with green peppers in the middle—into my hand.
But I gave it back.I don't like green peppers.I said.Lan had no choice but to change me to pure meat skewers.At this time, those big sweet potatoes were also placed in a place with less charcoal fire.
I put the meat skewers on the wire rack, and continued to talk to the representative of the department: how is the guitar learning?
The teacher's guitar is very useful!Representative Ke's eyes seemed to be on fire, and I could play most of the ballads.
That's very good.The language became impoverished again, so I stopped talking at all, and looked at another mountain in my sight. The snow stopped, and it was a solemn silver-white world.I was in a daze, Lan had no time to take care of me, and no one dared to bother me. It wasn't until the oil dripping from the skewers fell on the red-hot charcoal and produced smoke that I came back to my senses and turned over the skewers casually.
Most of what happened that day is forgotten, only the pungent chili powder and the taste test of the hot meat skewers in the mouth are remembered.The snow-white outside the eaves of the pavilion and the alternating feeling of cold and warm brought by the charcoal fire inside the pavilion.The group of students seemed to have endless topics to talk about, from gossip news to complaining about teachers, from new class anecdotes to reminiscing about the past.All in all, it was a pretty good party, and it went on for three hours until we couldn't eat anymore.Even some burnt sweet potatoes were looted.
Lan and I were the last ones to leave, because before leaving, she said that I would definitely regret it if I didn't go up the mountain once, so I agreed.After seeing off the group of students—it turned out that they came by car, and now they have to walk for a few minutes to wait for the car by the road—after we went up the mountain.
The snow hasn't been trampled yet, so we're moving slowly.Lan broke a thick branch from a dead tree and used it as a walking stick. Even so, I still fell down. Fortunately, I didn't feel much pain because I wore a lot of clothes in winter.
Lan smiled beside me, and she said while supporting me: I really want to take a picture of your pose just now.
I threatened her with a smile, how dare you!
We arrived at the top of the mountain in such a noisy way, it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon.From the top of the mountain, it seems that the end of the sky can be seen. The snow-covered peaks are connected with the gray sky, which makes people almost forget to breathe.
Pretty?Lan said next to me.
nice.
She was silent for a while, and said: Shout out, shout out all the unhappiness.
I thought about it, and there were many things that could be called unhappy in my heart, but I couldn't make a sound when it came to my mouth.I have always disliked screaming. Tracing back to the source, I still live too depressed.They don't even know how to release their emotions.
Lan saw that I opened my mouth but didn't speak, and sighed.
mom.she cried, as if with all the strength in her being.I don't hate you anymore.
There was a faint echo from the rolling mountains.Lan moistened the corners of her eyes at the end when the voice disappeared, but she didn't cry, and her standing posture was stubborn.At that moment, I knew that she had let go of the past.
People always have to look ahead.
Three days later, I bought a direct flight from Guizhou to Nanning and returned home the next day.
I think, throughout my life, I will never forget Lan's farewell to me at the airport.That's actually not sad, I just have an illusion, as if this parting, never see each other again.
Still that airport, it silently witnessed the separation of countless people, including me.
Although I know you may not be very good at speaking, I still want to say, take good care of yourself.Lan said, with a faint smile on his face.Don't next time I visit you, you become a national treasure.
I didn't answer because I didn't think it was possible.
Well, Lan said again, I hope you will meet someone who oversees your life like me sooner rather than later.
The same to you.I am sincere.In fact, why don't I want her to be happy?It's just that we're not each other's lovers.
When I walked to the ticket gate, I didn't look back, but I could still feel Lan's light gaze on me, and this time, the gaze disappeared before I disappeared.
☆, start of school
With the approach of the Lantern Festival, the day of school also kicked off.The evening self-study on the first day is always extremely noisy, but the teachers have no time to take care of them, after all, the school has a teacher meeting.
And I know this because at the end of the meeting, after walking out of the multimedia classroom, I felt for the first time that school could be so lively.Not referring to the crowd, but the sound.
All the way from Jianxun Building to my dormitory, there are almost all people, chatting unscrupulously.Walking in it, I only felt in a trance for a while, and my ears were noisy, but I didn't know what to say.I didn't know until the next day that the school blocked a passage in order to build a new teaching building.The students had to go around here.
In fact, I haven't experienced the lively feeling for a long time.The gathering with the students in Guizhou and the memory of Lan have exhausted my passion.Without Lan's supervision, I uncontrollably returned to my own world.Memories of the past took hold, and I was stuck at home again.
On the day I came back from Guizhou, I huddled myself in a warm quilt, curled up like a newborn.This is said to be a sign of insecurity.
I don't know if Lan understood the story.
In fact, in the final analysis, whether it is the girl, that is, me, or Zhang Ning, all of this is caused by loneliness.I don't know if other people have experienced the feeling of being isolated by those around you, like a circle, and you stand outside the circle.
Since Zhang Ning asked me my opinion on homosexuality, I knew clearly that she is the same as me, but not exactly the same.I didn't have her all-or-nothing courage.But at the same time, we long for someone to understand us. Even if we can't reveal the secrets hidden in our hearts, at least the other party will not hurt us.I think Zhang Ning probably pinned this desire on me.But none of us can predict how fate will arrange.
I have worked hard on this when I was studying. I strongly recommend some books or videos or songs to people around me, but every time it is just in vain.Nobody likes what I like, and I ask myself, that's not something shocking.Maybe I really responded to Zhang Ning's sentence: "No one doesn't like smart people, but most of the time people prefer vulgarity." When I chewed this sentence again, it almost made me cry.
I suffered too many setbacks among my friends living in Japan, and I didn't bother to look for illusory comfort on the Internet. In the end, with an irreversible trend, the self-closing trend was unstoppable.
In the end, I still walked into my own world.I still talk and laugh with my classmates like an ordinary person, and exchange solutions to problems with my teacher, which looks the same to outsiders.It's just that I know that something is silently growing and decaying in my heart.I think Zhang Ning is the same as me.
Just let me rot in my own world, if I can.
However, when it came to the opening ceremony the next morning, I watched with interest as the crowd filled the atrium and rushed to the playground.I have always felt that the design of the students' positions is unreasonable.The lower grade students stand in front of the stage, and the grade rankings are pushed back one by one.But there is a problem. The teaching building for the lower grades is on the opposite side of the stage.That is to say, every time there is a meeting or a meeting, the students have to leave from the north and the south, which is very crowded.
And now there are probably unintelligible freshmen standing on the playground, and a physical education teacher adjusts their positions.I didn't go to see it, but the teacher's high-pitched voice could still be heard in the office.My heart became inexplicably irritable.
The opening ceremony lasted for a full hour, and it was not the same after all.I am glad again that I am not the head teacher of a certain class.However, I didn't expect that the school would arrange me to be the head teacher of class 90 in the next semester.One of the reasons is that the original class teacher was transferred to teach science classes.The school sent several new science teachers to teach liberal arts classes.
Of course, these are things to follow.
I don't plan to attend the first class of school.It was just that when I stood on the podium and saw the books placed on the table by the students, I thought of such a sentence: I can see your little movements clearly on the podium!
I have always felt that this sentence is true if it is not added to the books that are stacked higher than the students.
At the same time, I also noticed that the class finally changed seats.The seat that originally belonged to Zhang Ning became a boy, and she herself was placed in the bottom position.A half-height book blocked half of her face, and judging from the pages escaping from the book, she was probably reading a novel.
It is undeniable that I secretly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and I no longer have to worry about being uncomfortable by her fiery gaze.The longer the distance, the weaker the effect.
How is your year?I asked the students more or less happily.
The promises I got are still various, and the most dumbfounding one is: I will gain three catties during the Chinese New Year.Some people boldly said: Teacher, we want lucky money!
I laughed at them, they are already so old, what more money do they need.
Well, we are still teenagers, minors.They retorted with a smile.Besides, the tuition fee is gone.
You didn't say it earlier.I deliberately said, where can I find so many dollars?
There was booing in the class, teacher, you are too stingy.They said in unison.
I smiled and said, there are sixty or seventy people in the class, and each person has six or seventy yuan, okay?However, lucky money is out of the question, do you want homework?
don't want!This time there is a tacit understanding again, because there are so few people who "keep their ears off the outside world and only read the books of sages."Zhang Ning is one of them.
I looked away, continued to smile and said: I haven't said what homework it is, why refuse so quickly?The people in the class flattened their mouths, but did not refute.How about this, Spring Festival couplets should be pasted during the Chinese New Year, right?Later, I will draw a few students to stand up and talk about a pair of Spring Festival couplets, which cannot be repeated.
teacher!We still have to say no!The class exploded in an instant, and some people even yelled: It's been so long, who still remembers?
I was unmoved, but noticed that Zhang Ning put the book away. Judging from the cover, it did not belong to a textbook.Zhang Ning was lying on the table, staring at something with a pair of unusually sentimental eyes.At that moment, she seemed to mature a lot.
I'll give you 10 minutes to think about it, I'm going to call someone later.I said.This is probably the fun of teachers.One sentence can change the state of a student.
Until school was over, I still had the pleasure of a successful prank.
I closed the door of the small office, and the moment I turned around, I saw Zhang Ning at the corner of the stairwell on the second floor.There was a steady stream of other students coming downstairs.This is just an accident, just like the moment when I passed the teacher at the corridor entrance countless times.
But the look in her eyes made me lose my motivation.We just looked at each other across the crowd, and time seemed to freeze.In fact, less than ten seconds had passed.
teacher.Zhang Ning smiled at me and said, I had no choice but to stand where I was and wait for her to go downstairs together.She just stood next to me and said nothing, her breath lingered around me like air.
I forced myself to stop paying attention to her, and turned my attention to the pattering rain outside, which was so light that it was almost invisible, if there were no reminders of water stains on the ground.The rain in spring is always delicate and gentle, but the uninterrupted rain is annoying and keeps the clothes freshly washed forever.
At the same time, it also verified the poet's sentence "It rains a lot during Qingming." Qingming, Qingming, I suddenly remembered something and turned my head to look at Zhang Ning.
But she smiled at me again, teacher, I want to borrow a few more books from you, can I?
I froze for half a second, and swallowed the words that came to my lips.Forget it, don't talk about her grandpa anymore.I said in my heart.
sure.I turned to say, do you want it now?
She whispered to express her doubts.
There are several books in my dormitory, all of which are novels.I explained.At this time, we have already passed through the gate of the central hall, and the tall mirror placed inside can still see our figure.The soft rain was blown onto the face by the wind, icy and cool, no need for an umbrella.
Zhang Ning nodded, and walked into the corridor of Jianxun Building with me.The large office on the first floor is lined up neatly with wooden desks, only a few teachers are in it, it looks empty and lonely.
When I returned to the dormitory, she followed me into the room, hooked her heels, and closed the door.I was vaguely aware of the dangerous aura contained in this action, but I didn't say much.
There are a few books in my room that I bought online before school started. It’s not that there are no bookstores here, but I can’t buy the books I want.And the school library is not working.
You see it.I pointed to the books with uneven thickness and said to Zhang Ning, who also opened them seriously and read them.I walked out of the room, poured myself a cup of hot water, and waited for her to finish her selection while holding the steaming cup.
After a few minutes, the temperature in the cup is still there.Zhang Ning came out with three books in his arms.
She stood in front of me, her eyes were slightly covered by a few bangs, turning back and forth.Thank you teacher, then I... let's go first.she says.
Um.I lowered my head to drink water and didn't speak again.I think our relationship will slowly advance in this borrowing and repaying.
I am leaving.Zhang Ning said again, by the way, the teacher is very beautiful today.
I smiled at her, but couldn't say anything more.He led her away from the door with complicated emotions, and closed the door outside.
I suddenly understood Han and the boy.In the world of love, everyone is a fool.As long as you don't pierce this kind of thing for a day, it will always exist.
☆, gift
Jin, have you received the express delivery yet?Han, who hadn't contacted me for a long time, asked me on the phone.
Not yet, going to get it.I said.In fact, between yesterday and now, I've had three calls from courier notifications and just couldn't be bothered to pick them up.Fortunately, they are all in the same store, so I don't have to go half a town.And I haven't shopped online recently, so the first two deliveries are easy to guess, but the last one is really hard to know.
oh.Han is silent, happy birthday.she said briskly.
Don't you know I never celebrate my birthday?I changed my tone, Han is reminding me, is it one year older?
I know, your life is just your business, whether I give gifts or not is my business.
Well, what you say is what you say.I smiled and said, what did you send?
When I said this, I turned into the street where the courier shop is located. This is where Internet cafes are concentrated. Every night, red signs are lit up, and the red light envelops the entire street. Although it is daytime, the people who patronize Not a few.
The store at the end of the road is a cooperation between three courier companies, and the courier stores in the small town do not provide door-to-door delivery, so they can only pick it up by themselves.Therefore, there are many people at noon and evening, most of them are students. Since the rise of online shopping, the express delivery industry has also risen.I deliberately picked a time to come at two o'clock in the afternoon. My experience tells me that there are few people at that time.After all, there are classes later, and I have to take a nap.What about birthdays?It's not the same as going to class.
This is a secret, you will know later.Han lazily blocked the words.
I walked into the store and hung up the phone at the same time.A man and a woman stood in front of the workbench, and one of them was particularly familiar from the back.
There is a saying that the more you don't want to see someone, the more she dangles in front of your eyes.
Zhang Ning signed and saw me when she turned around. She also looked quite surprised.
Teacher, are you here to pick up the courier too?
I put the phone back in my pocket and nodded.Then the clerk said: Help me find Lin Jin's courier, there are three in total, two Zhongtong and one Shentong.
The clerk didn't ask me any more questions, probably because he was impressed by my delivery.
Zhang Ning didn't leave, she seemed to be waiting for me intentionally.corner of eye
Lan's father came back quickly with the chessboard, and I played chess with him, I played red and he played black.Unlike the way I move pieces quickly, Father Lan plays very slowly.If his hair was a little whiter, I could connect him with the old people in my memory.I kind of like this unsmiling middle-aged man.
In the first game, I lost.
Lan's father said, yes, come on, let's play another game.When he said this, Lan's father showed a slight sense of satisfaction on his face.
So Lan came out after washing the dishes and saw this scene, two people who also frowned slightly were staring at the chess pieces.After losing a game, I started to be cautious.
I caught a glimpse of Lan shrugging his shoulders, but said nothing.She just sits in front of me with the fruit she has cut into pieces, feeds me a few pieces from time to time, and more often comes up with bad ideas beside her.It can be seen that she still knows a little bit, Lan's father should have taught her.
The final result was 2:1, Father Lan won the undisputed victory.
Alright Dad, let Jin take a bath and rest.Lan said to Lan's father after destroying the fruit, and added a sentence at the end, don't always pull people to play chess, isn't there in the computer?
What do you know.Father Lan wrote lightly.
I had no choice but to smile to myself to resolve the embarrassment.In fact, the relationship between the two fathers and daughters is far from being so cold on the surface.For example, Lan put a cup of hot tea in front of his father.
While I was in the shower, I could hear conversations faintly, but not really.I just feel that the house is a bit small and the partition walls are not thick enough.
☆, story
When I got out of the shower, I found that Lan was alone in the living room, so I asked her where was her uncle?
out.Lan simply said that without further explanation.It's past nine o'clock in the evening, and it's cold and windy outside. I can't imagine why Lan's father went out.
Jin, come here.She gestured to me, looking up at me with a smile on her face.Play five chess pieces with me.
I was a little taken aback, Lan urged again.I had to say: what to play with?You can't draw the line directly, can you?
As if he had been prepared for my question, Lan turned over the confiscated chessboard, and it turned out that there were neat squares engraved on the back.Lan said: This is for Go, but it is no different from the Gomoku board.
I deeply suspect that the chess game just now aroused Lan's desire to play chess.If there is a Go board, there will naturally be chess pieces. It seems that I can't escape.However, if Lan's father came back and saw that we were overqualified, would he be offended?
Backgammon is relatively easy for me. After all, I often played with my classmates when I was studying.It's not difficult but can be played for a long time.I resumed the hand speed of Miao Luozi again, almost clinging to Lan Luozi.In this regard, Lan kept wondering if I had played some tricks, and the progress was extremely slowed down by her.
Finally, after Lan lost three games in a row, she pushed the white piece onto the chessboard, feeling quite cheating.stop playing.she hummed.At this time, she looked like a little girl, without feeling depressed at all.
I took the initiative to clean up the mess.Lan's father came back at this moment, half an hour had passed.Lan's father hurriedly greeted us and went back to his room to rest.Lan said he went to bed on time every night.In comparison, my messy schedule really makes me ashamed.Next time I must give up sleeping pills, I made up my mind and said silently, the medicine is three-point poison.
But even with such awareness, it may not be able to change much.We barely slept that night.Lan and I talked all night in the bedroom, more precisely, we told each other stories about the night.Stories that started because of me but I didn't get to be a part of.Stories that I know everything but keep deep in my heart.
Lan did see a psychiatrist, but she didn't ask for leave from the school. Music teacher is an easy job.Lan mostly went to the psychological counseling room recommended by that friend to receive psychological guidance on weekends.She does not rely on medication to regulate, so her condition has come and gone.She said that sometimes she really wanted to call me, but she couldn't press the green call button even though she had clicked on the address book on her phone.Repeatedly, again and again, her condition began to deteriorate.
Like me, I could not sleep all night, lost in the chaos of dreams, unable to sleep peacefully.Lan's mother and I had the wrong memories, and for a while she came to hate me.Although, I've never ruined someone's family or relationship.
Lan's father may have noticed her daughter's abnormality earlier than her, and I seem to understand the meaning of those words.They all bet on me, the bet is the change of the heart, and the loss is the distortion of the heart.
Lan's father began to pay attention to his daughter's condition, and took her to the quiet and peaceful depths of the mountains from time to time.Perhaps to purify one's heart, nature is the best doctor.
But the real turning point came from Lan's mother.
The no longer young woman who had lost her icy exterior.
Lan met her not long after the start of the winter vacation, during a trip.Lan's mother is a little fatter, compared to the skinny figure when she was a model when she was young, she looks like a happy middle-aged woman.Lan recognized her immediately, and also recognized the other woman beside her.Although she had only met her once when she was young.
Lan suddenly rejoiced that his father didn't come with him. The torment of being betrayed by his beloved had already crushed the man's heart, and he could no longer bear this kind of scene—the blow of his mother and his former lover walking together sweetly.Rand presumably did the same.She didn't dare to go forward and let the two recognize her.Weeping sadly in the dark.
For some unknown reason, Lan secretly followed them.For the first time, she discovered that her mother had such a beautiful smile.
Then I called you.Lan said.
At this point we are leaning on our respective soft pillows, breathing steadily.I turned my face to look at her. Under the soft light and shadow, her profile didn't look sad, and she didn't feel fragile or on the verge of collapse.But I think that part of this story must have been cut, so that I couldn't get a glimpse of what kind of complicated mood Lan had at that time, so that he could look at the figure of his mother in the distance again and again.
Um.I stretched out my hand to straighten her hair, not knowing what to say.
Lan smiled at me and said: When I was on the phone, I was always afraid that you would not answer, and my nervous palms were sweating.Jin, I know that although you seem to have no temper, you are more decisive than anyone else when you really set your heart on it.
I am silent.
But luckily you took it.She said again, stretching out her hands for a lazy waist, with a rare playful smile on her face.Otherwise I don't know what to do.
You know I've always been a person who doesn't know how to say no to people.
Yes, what should you do if someone pursues you in the future?If they are a little stronger, you will have nothing to do.Lan said prophetically, with a tone of fate.Although now she is just talking casually.
No... I want to say that no one pursues me, but it's not quite accurate to say that when I think about it.So I asked her: Do you want to hear a story?
She said yes.
So I started to talk about that story: When the girl was in her first year of high school, a very beautiful female teacher came to the class, she spoke very interestingly, and the class was also very distinctive.Not only girls, many people in the class like her, like her occasional coquettishness, like her sudden loud voice, like the stories she shares.A year later, the girl transferred to liberal arts and separated from the female teacher.But luckily, the female teacher taught the two classes next to them.Occasionally, she can still hear her voice during self-study classes, and she can also see her occasionally procrastinating after school.It's a pity that parting is doomed, but the girl didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Another year later, the girl entered the tense senior year of high school, and the female teacher left the school in the same year.Since then, she has never seen the female teacher again.When I looked back later, the girl knew what missing was.
Lan listened intently, and when she heard this, she gave me a thoughtful look.Jin, are you a teacher or a student?
I smiled cryptically, how do you know it wasn't made up by me?
You don't have to make up such a story.
Keep listening, the story is not over yet.I said calmly.
Later, the girl also chose to be a teacher, a language teacher.And when she went to Guizhou, she didn't expect to meet a female teacher, because she knew which city the female teacher lived in, and she went to another city.I can't say why I came here from all the way, people themselves are very complicated.
After one year of teaching was over, the girl returned to her alma mater.Although she is reluctant to part with the students and teachers here.
Lan wanted to say something, but I stopped him with my eyes.
After returning to school, the girl met another special girl, Zhang.She is wise and indifferent, and her hobbies have something in common with girls, just like some of her years ago.History is always surprisingly similar.she thinks.The girl started to contact her because of pure homework problems at first, and then because of some inadvertent incidents, this normal teacher-student relationship has slightly changed.
For example: a poem, several compositions, an explanation.A Rubik's Cube, a song, several emotions.
Lan finally got a chance to interrupt me, Jin, you seem to be reciting a poem, what do you mean?
Who made me a Chinese teacher.While blurting out the words, I was shocked to realize that wasn't this a previous conversation?
This sentence again.Sure enough, Lan was dissatisfied.
Well, I changed my words, let me put it simply.
Zhang is actually a very individual and lonely person. She longs for someone to understand her, but no one around her understands her desire.Zhang became increasingly disappointed, and finally gave up communicating with them what was deep in his heart.Until, after the girl who returned to school to teach appeared.The girl tentatively wrote a poem and handed it in as homework, and the girl did not disappoint her.Zhang continued to keep in touch with the girl until something broke the reassuring state.Maybe it's only when I look back that I know what those emotions are called.
I paused and closed my eyes, letting the dark lumps float in my eyes.
It can be said that the two stories are interlinked.I said.
Lan was silent for a while, she was probably recalling the story just now.My eyes were still closed, my ears were buzzing, and the illusion was truly terrifying.
I still don't understand.Lan said, successfully pulling me out of my drowsiness.
If you don't understand, you don't understand.I said, my body slid down at the same time, the quilt was unbearably cold in the middle of winter night.I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes tightly again.That's not important anymore.I said.
Why is it not important?Lan asked stubbornly, which is rare, you haven't told me who you are!
Both.I can't stand her shaking, said.Well well, the story is false!Lan froze for a moment, and I continued: "Okay, don't shake me."You see it's so late, go to sleep.
I heard her sigh in the dark, I think you're the girl.she says.
☆, very good
The next morning we were woken up by Lan's father, around seven o'clock.Lan answered vaguely, and ran to pull open the curtains. I was still sleeping at that time, and vaguely heard Lan's short exclamation.
Snowing.she told me.
I lost all sleepiness at once, jumped out of bed in my unlined clothes, and went to the window with my slippers on.It was really snow, the gray sky, little snowflakes were falling, and a thin layer of translucent ice had already accumulated by the window.
I couldn't see clearly through the window, so I opened the window, and the cold wind and snowflakes were blowing on my face and neck.It's cold, but also very happy.
This is the first time I saw snow!I said loudly, unable to hide my excitement.
I got it, I got it, Lan said amusedly and helplessly, can't you just dress up and watch it?
I lowered my head, and the chill brought by the snowflakes gradually penetrated into my skin, reaching deep into my bones.I silently closed the window.
Lan's father knocked again, saying he had cooked breakfast.When he walked out of the room, he whispered to me: Don't be crazy with her in the future, just go to bed very late, right?
I froze, a smile widening on my lips.Lan turned to look at me, I think she will feel baffled.
After breakfast, Father Lan started playing chess with me again. I pretended to be casual and asked him, who do you usually play chess with?
The nearly 50-year-old man stopped holding chess in the air for a moment, and then made a move as if nothing had happened.
There are not many people here who can play chess and have patience.He said.
I knew he was alluding to Lan, but the latter was obviously not under his influence, and he was calling someone on the phone, and it sounded like he was dating someone.Lan hung up the phone and said to me cheerfully: Jin, shall we go to the mountain for barbecue later?By the way, and your students too.
Just as I was about to say something, Lan's father moved the chess piece heavily.Nonsense!He shouted, it's so cold up the mountain, what should I do if I catch a cold?
Dad, let's wear more clothes.
That's not OK.Father Lan said while urging me to play chess.There is a lot of snow on the mountain, what if something unexpected happens?I don't care if you go crazy yourself, don't take Xiaojin with you.
I looked at Father Lan, his attitude towards me changed so much in just one night?
Lan made a helpless expression, the two father and daughter are somewhat similar in this regard.
Then dad, let's go at the foot of the mountain, right?And I have made appointments with those students, so I can't miss the appointment temporarily.
Lan's father finally let go, but made a condition, but I will send you there.He said.At this moment, I set up a good game, no matter how Father Lan's next move is, I will give it to the general.Lan's father was slightly stunned, then smiled and said: "That's right, come on, let's play another game."
When we arrived - at the foot of the agreed mountain, there were already more than a dozen people gathered there, dressed in down jackets of various colors and wearing hand-woven pointed hats, they looked like zongzi people.There are scattered black plastic bags at their feet, which are the food brought by each family.Besides the food, Lan and I were also in charge of the heavy and difficult to handle charcoal and grill.Because she has a car.
But I am not interested in paying attention to these. The snow-white scenery along the way attracts me. It seems that there is no other color in the world except silver and white.But it is not the case, the snow is not too big.A little bit of other color can still be seen on both sides of the road.But for a person like me who lives in a subtropical province, this snow is really precious.
Before getting out of the car, Lan's father told me again, call me when you come back later, and don't run around.
After a few perfunctory words, Lan couldn't help thinking of going up the mountain after getting off the car.I didn't comment, just asked her: Why does your father seem to be a different person?
Didn't I tell you yesterday?He is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.Besides, my dad has already played chess with you, just to say that he likes you very much.
At this time, some students took the initiative to help move things, and one of them shouted hello to the teacher.I have to say I was moved.I always thought that people would go out to cool off the tea, but I didn't expect them to still miss me.
I did a rough calculation, and there were twelve people, including me and Lan, a total of fourteen. 4 men and 8 women, including my former department representative.They are already in the second year of high school, and they are divided into arts and sciences. The people in the class have dispersed a lot, which has caused many people to no longer communicate with each other.After all, the wind of reform has not yet blown here.
Teacher, you are really back!How about in Guangxi?Are the students there particularly fond of fighting?someone asked.
Who did you listen to?When she said this, Lan was leading us to a flat land on the mountainside, and she really forgot Lan's father's advice.Fortunately, the stone ladder road laid by the predecessors is not so difficult, but the few boys who moved things suffered.
It was said on the Internet.The man said without thinking.
I have no idea.I say, but my students don't.
Maybe because they noticed the displeasure in my tone, their conversation became much quieter.Lan turned around and smiled: "Really, what's wrong with asking, I have to ask this."Jin loves her students the most, don't you know?
No, I added: I only love students who are not bad.
For some reason, everyone burst into laughter. If there were birds here, they would probably be able to startle a few of them.
Not long after, Lan led us to the destination, where there was a quaint pavilion with four corners bent at the same angle.According to Lan, this pavilion has been here for a long time, and people who usually go up the mountain will take a short rest here.
But, whatever, just enough to keep out the snow.Lan finally concluded.She greeted the group of students to start preparations in an orderly manner.We brought two grills and put them together to seat an average of seven people on each side.Experienced people are responsible for lighting the fire, while the rest sort and put away the ingredients they brought, and they have been skewered before they come.I glanced at it, and it was mostly meat, but there were even sweet potatoes.Are they going to simmer over coals?
In fact, that is also a good taste.
I sit in the middle a little to the left, Lan is on the left, and the representative of Ke is on the left.Six or seven months really can't change anything, except for Nake's frozen red nose, she is almost exactly the same as before.
I haven't asked you yet, do you choose essays or rationale?
The representative of the department raised his literary face, feeling a little nervous, so I chose the truth, teacher.
Good.I wanted to say something more, but my memory didn't work very well at this moment, and I actually forgot whether she was good at liberal arts or science.
After the charcoal was ignited, the temperature rose a bit, and the heat slowly grew.Even the breath of the people around them was tinged with warmth. In fact, this was their own party.Rand pushed several skewers of meat—with green peppers in the middle—into my hand.
But I gave it back.I don't like green peppers.I said.Lan had no choice but to change me to pure meat skewers.At this time, those big sweet potatoes were also placed in a place with less charcoal fire.
I put the meat skewers on the wire rack, and continued to talk to the representative of the department: how is the guitar learning?
The teacher's guitar is very useful!Representative Ke's eyes seemed to be on fire, and I could play most of the ballads.
That's very good.The language became impoverished again, so I stopped talking at all, and looked at another mountain in my sight. The snow stopped, and it was a solemn silver-white world.I was in a daze, Lan had no time to take care of me, and no one dared to bother me. It wasn't until the oil dripping from the skewers fell on the red-hot charcoal and produced smoke that I came back to my senses and turned over the skewers casually.
Most of what happened that day is forgotten, only the pungent chili powder and the taste test of the hot meat skewers in the mouth are remembered.The snow-white outside the eaves of the pavilion and the alternating feeling of cold and warm brought by the charcoal fire inside the pavilion.The group of students seemed to have endless topics to talk about, from gossip news to complaining about teachers, from new class anecdotes to reminiscing about the past.All in all, it was a pretty good party, and it went on for three hours until we couldn't eat anymore.Even some burnt sweet potatoes were looted.
Lan and I were the last ones to leave, because before leaving, she said that I would definitely regret it if I didn't go up the mountain once, so I agreed.After seeing off the group of students—it turned out that they came by car, and now they have to walk for a few minutes to wait for the car by the road—after we went up the mountain.
The snow hasn't been trampled yet, so we're moving slowly.Lan broke a thick branch from a dead tree and used it as a walking stick. Even so, I still fell down. Fortunately, I didn't feel much pain because I wore a lot of clothes in winter.
Lan smiled beside me, and she said while supporting me: I really want to take a picture of your pose just now.
I threatened her with a smile, how dare you!
We arrived at the top of the mountain in such a noisy way, it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon.From the top of the mountain, it seems that the end of the sky can be seen. The snow-covered peaks are connected with the gray sky, which makes people almost forget to breathe.
Pretty?Lan said next to me.
nice.
She was silent for a while, and said: Shout out, shout out all the unhappiness.
I thought about it, and there were many things that could be called unhappy in my heart, but I couldn't make a sound when it came to my mouth.I have always disliked screaming. Tracing back to the source, I still live too depressed.They don't even know how to release their emotions.
Lan saw that I opened my mouth but didn't speak, and sighed.
mom.she cried, as if with all the strength in her being.I don't hate you anymore.
There was a faint echo from the rolling mountains.Lan moistened the corners of her eyes at the end when the voice disappeared, but she didn't cry, and her standing posture was stubborn.At that moment, I knew that she had let go of the past.
People always have to look ahead.
Three days later, I bought a direct flight from Guizhou to Nanning and returned home the next day.
I think, throughout my life, I will never forget Lan's farewell to me at the airport.That's actually not sad, I just have an illusion, as if this parting, never see each other again.
Still that airport, it silently witnessed the separation of countless people, including me.
Although I know you may not be very good at speaking, I still want to say, take good care of yourself.Lan said, with a faint smile on his face.Don't next time I visit you, you become a national treasure.
I didn't answer because I didn't think it was possible.
Well, Lan said again, I hope you will meet someone who oversees your life like me sooner rather than later.
The same to you.I am sincere.In fact, why don't I want her to be happy?It's just that we're not each other's lovers.
When I walked to the ticket gate, I didn't look back, but I could still feel Lan's light gaze on me, and this time, the gaze disappeared before I disappeared.
☆, start of school
With the approach of the Lantern Festival, the day of school also kicked off.The evening self-study on the first day is always extremely noisy, but the teachers have no time to take care of them, after all, the school has a teacher meeting.
And I know this because at the end of the meeting, after walking out of the multimedia classroom, I felt for the first time that school could be so lively.Not referring to the crowd, but the sound.
All the way from Jianxun Building to my dormitory, there are almost all people, chatting unscrupulously.Walking in it, I only felt in a trance for a while, and my ears were noisy, but I didn't know what to say.I didn't know until the next day that the school blocked a passage in order to build a new teaching building.The students had to go around here.
In fact, I haven't experienced the lively feeling for a long time.The gathering with the students in Guizhou and the memory of Lan have exhausted my passion.Without Lan's supervision, I uncontrollably returned to my own world.Memories of the past took hold, and I was stuck at home again.
On the day I came back from Guizhou, I huddled myself in a warm quilt, curled up like a newborn.This is said to be a sign of insecurity.
I don't know if Lan understood the story.
In fact, in the final analysis, whether it is the girl, that is, me, or Zhang Ning, all of this is caused by loneliness.I don't know if other people have experienced the feeling of being isolated by those around you, like a circle, and you stand outside the circle.
Since Zhang Ning asked me my opinion on homosexuality, I knew clearly that she is the same as me, but not exactly the same.I didn't have her all-or-nothing courage.But at the same time, we long for someone to understand us. Even if we can't reveal the secrets hidden in our hearts, at least the other party will not hurt us.I think Zhang Ning probably pinned this desire on me.But none of us can predict how fate will arrange.
I have worked hard on this when I was studying. I strongly recommend some books or videos or songs to people around me, but every time it is just in vain.Nobody likes what I like, and I ask myself, that's not something shocking.Maybe I really responded to Zhang Ning's sentence: "No one doesn't like smart people, but most of the time people prefer vulgarity." When I chewed this sentence again, it almost made me cry.
I suffered too many setbacks among my friends living in Japan, and I didn't bother to look for illusory comfort on the Internet. In the end, with an irreversible trend, the self-closing trend was unstoppable.
In the end, I still walked into my own world.I still talk and laugh with my classmates like an ordinary person, and exchange solutions to problems with my teacher, which looks the same to outsiders.It's just that I know that something is silently growing and decaying in my heart.I think Zhang Ning is the same as me.
Just let me rot in my own world, if I can.
However, when it came to the opening ceremony the next morning, I watched with interest as the crowd filled the atrium and rushed to the playground.I have always felt that the design of the students' positions is unreasonable.The lower grade students stand in front of the stage, and the grade rankings are pushed back one by one.But there is a problem. The teaching building for the lower grades is on the opposite side of the stage.That is to say, every time there is a meeting or a meeting, the students have to leave from the north and the south, which is very crowded.
And now there are probably unintelligible freshmen standing on the playground, and a physical education teacher adjusts their positions.I didn't go to see it, but the teacher's high-pitched voice could still be heard in the office.My heart became inexplicably irritable.
The opening ceremony lasted for a full hour, and it was not the same after all.I am glad again that I am not the head teacher of a certain class.However, I didn't expect that the school would arrange me to be the head teacher of class 90 in the next semester.One of the reasons is that the original class teacher was transferred to teach science classes.The school sent several new science teachers to teach liberal arts classes.
Of course, these are things to follow.
I don't plan to attend the first class of school.It was just that when I stood on the podium and saw the books placed on the table by the students, I thought of such a sentence: I can see your little movements clearly on the podium!
I have always felt that this sentence is true if it is not added to the books that are stacked higher than the students.
At the same time, I also noticed that the class finally changed seats.The seat that originally belonged to Zhang Ning became a boy, and she herself was placed in the bottom position.A half-height book blocked half of her face, and judging from the pages escaping from the book, she was probably reading a novel.
It is undeniable that I secretly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and I no longer have to worry about being uncomfortable by her fiery gaze.The longer the distance, the weaker the effect.
How is your year?I asked the students more or less happily.
The promises I got are still various, and the most dumbfounding one is: I will gain three catties during the Chinese New Year.Some people boldly said: Teacher, we want lucky money!
I laughed at them, they are already so old, what more money do they need.
Well, we are still teenagers, minors.They retorted with a smile.Besides, the tuition fee is gone.
You didn't say it earlier.I deliberately said, where can I find so many dollars?
There was booing in the class, teacher, you are too stingy.They said in unison.
I smiled and said, there are sixty or seventy people in the class, and each person has six or seventy yuan, okay?However, lucky money is out of the question, do you want homework?
don't want!This time there is a tacit understanding again, because there are so few people who "keep their ears off the outside world and only read the books of sages."Zhang Ning is one of them.
I looked away, continued to smile and said: I haven't said what homework it is, why refuse so quickly?The people in the class flattened their mouths, but did not refute.How about this, Spring Festival couplets should be pasted during the Chinese New Year, right?Later, I will draw a few students to stand up and talk about a pair of Spring Festival couplets, which cannot be repeated.
teacher!We still have to say no!The class exploded in an instant, and some people even yelled: It's been so long, who still remembers?
I was unmoved, but noticed that Zhang Ning put the book away. Judging from the cover, it did not belong to a textbook.Zhang Ning was lying on the table, staring at something with a pair of unusually sentimental eyes.At that moment, she seemed to mature a lot.
I'll give you 10 minutes to think about it, I'm going to call someone later.I said.This is probably the fun of teachers.One sentence can change the state of a student.
Until school was over, I still had the pleasure of a successful prank.
I closed the door of the small office, and the moment I turned around, I saw Zhang Ning at the corner of the stairwell on the second floor.There was a steady stream of other students coming downstairs.This is just an accident, just like the moment when I passed the teacher at the corridor entrance countless times.
But the look in her eyes made me lose my motivation.We just looked at each other across the crowd, and time seemed to freeze.In fact, less than ten seconds had passed.
teacher.Zhang Ning smiled at me and said, I had no choice but to stand where I was and wait for her to go downstairs together.She just stood next to me and said nothing, her breath lingered around me like air.
I forced myself to stop paying attention to her, and turned my attention to the pattering rain outside, which was so light that it was almost invisible, if there were no reminders of water stains on the ground.The rain in spring is always delicate and gentle, but the uninterrupted rain is annoying and keeps the clothes freshly washed forever.
At the same time, it also verified the poet's sentence "It rains a lot during Qingming." Qingming, Qingming, I suddenly remembered something and turned my head to look at Zhang Ning.
But she smiled at me again, teacher, I want to borrow a few more books from you, can I?
I froze for half a second, and swallowed the words that came to my lips.Forget it, don't talk about her grandpa anymore.I said in my heart.
sure.I turned to say, do you want it now?
She whispered to express her doubts.
There are several books in my dormitory, all of which are novels.I explained.At this time, we have already passed through the gate of the central hall, and the tall mirror placed inside can still see our figure.The soft rain was blown onto the face by the wind, icy and cool, no need for an umbrella.
Zhang Ning nodded, and walked into the corridor of Jianxun Building with me.The large office on the first floor is lined up neatly with wooden desks, only a few teachers are in it, it looks empty and lonely.
When I returned to the dormitory, she followed me into the room, hooked her heels, and closed the door.I was vaguely aware of the dangerous aura contained in this action, but I didn't say much.
There are a few books in my room that I bought online before school started. It’s not that there are no bookstores here, but I can’t buy the books I want.And the school library is not working.
You see it.I pointed to the books with uneven thickness and said to Zhang Ning, who also opened them seriously and read them.I walked out of the room, poured myself a cup of hot water, and waited for her to finish her selection while holding the steaming cup.
After a few minutes, the temperature in the cup is still there.Zhang Ning came out with three books in his arms.
She stood in front of me, her eyes were slightly covered by a few bangs, turning back and forth.Thank you teacher, then I... let's go first.she says.
Um.I lowered my head to drink water and didn't speak again.I think our relationship will slowly advance in this borrowing and repaying.
I am leaving.Zhang Ning said again, by the way, the teacher is very beautiful today.
I smiled at her, but couldn't say anything more.He led her away from the door with complicated emotions, and closed the door outside.
I suddenly understood Han and the boy.In the world of love, everyone is a fool.As long as you don't pierce this kind of thing for a day, it will always exist.
☆, gift
Jin, have you received the express delivery yet?Han, who hadn't contacted me for a long time, asked me on the phone.
Not yet, going to get it.I said.In fact, between yesterday and now, I've had three calls from courier notifications and just couldn't be bothered to pick them up.Fortunately, they are all in the same store, so I don't have to go half a town.And I haven't shopped online recently, so the first two deliveries are easy to guess, but the last one is really hard to know.
oh.Han is silent, happy birthday.she said briskly.
Don't you know I never celebrate my birthday?I changed my tone, Han is reminding me, is it one year older?
I know, your life is just your business, whether I give gifts or not is my business.
Well, what you say is what you say.I smiled and said, what did you send?
When I said this, I turned into the street where the courier shop is located. This is where Internet cafes are concentrated. Every night, red signs are lit up, and the red light envelops the entire street. Although it is daytime, the people who patronize Not a few.
The store at the end of the road is a cooperation between three courier companies, and the courier stores in the small town do not provide door-to-door delivery, so they can only pick it up by themselves.Therefore, there are many people at noon and evening, most of them are students. Since the rise of online shopping, the express delivery industry has also risen.I deliberately picked a time to come at two o'clock in the afternoon. My experience tells me that there are few people at that time.After all, there are classes later, and I have to take a nap.What about birthdays?It's not the same as going to class.
This is a secret, you will know later.Han lazily blocked the words.
I walked into the store and hung up the phone at the same time.A man and a woman stood in front of the workbench, and one of them was particularly familiar from the back.
There is a saying that the more you don't want to see someone, the more she dangles in front of your eyes.
Zhang Ning signed and saw me when she turned around. She also looked quite surprised.
Teacher, are you here to pick up the courier too?
I put the phone back in my pocket and nodded.Then the clerk said: Help me find Lin Jin's courier, there are three in total, two Zhongtong and one Shentong.
The clerk didn't ask me any more questions, probably because he was impressed by my delivery.
Zhang Ning didn't leave, she seemed to be waiting for me intentionally.corner of eye
