old age

Yi Chen's complaint was just a joke, so naturally he didn't take Ji Kaiyang's words seriously, and he didn't know what he meant until the point was over.

"Did you do it on purpose? You definitely did it on purpose." Yi Chen checked Ji Kaiyang's results again and said with certainty.

"I'm out of order." Ji Kaiyang peeled the longan, he couldn't remember how many times he said this sentence today.

The results came out in the morning, and Yi Chen ranked No. 20 and [-]th in the school, which was his best performance since junior high school.But what was even more unexpected was that Ji Kaiyang, who had never been in the top three in his grade, was actually only two ahead of Yi Chen.

"I don't believe it, you did it on purpose." Yi Chen took the longan that Ji Kaiyang had just peeled and stuffed it into his mouth, puffing his cheeks, "Are you out of your mind?"

"Are you bloated because you did too well in the exam?" Ji Kaiyang took another longan, which he didn't like very much, and it was originally peeled for Yi Chen.

"You don't have to, now you have to study parallel classes with me, and there is more than one parallel class, and there is no guarantee that you will be assigned together." Yi Chen became more angry as he spoke, and grabbed a book to fan himself.

"Are you hot?" Ji Kaiyang looked up at the air conditioner, it was 26 degrees, not too high.

"I'm going to be mad at you!"

"You can make your voice louder, they are in the living room." Ji Kaiyang said calmly, "What about parallel classes? The division is not fixed, it will be changed after each major exam, what's the matter? You don't have to worry about it, my mother and Uncle Yi will definitely find a way to ask someone to put us together. But if I enter the experimental class, it will definitely not work. "

"So you did it on purpose, you admitted it." Yi Chen felt as if he had caught something, and was about to jump up from the chair excitedly.

"Whatever you say is what you say." Ji Kaiyang said, "What's the point of entanglement?"

"Then what's the point of you insisting on studying parallel classes!"

"Because I want to..." Ji Kaiyang rarely thought of teasing him, but he couldn't learn half of what he said, so he had to give up, and he didn't know why Yi Chen could keep his face unchanged every time.

"It's all my fault." Yi Chen sat cross-legged angrily, "I shouldn't have said that last time."

"Do you think I won't be able to tell if you're serious or joking?" Ji Kaiyang lowered his expression, "I think this is very good."

Yi Chen rolled his eyes and didn't say anything. He continued to eat the longan one by one without stopping, "I realized that I don't understand you at all. Why are you so courageous? What if I perform supernormally and go to the experimental class?" ? You're working in vain."

"You are already extraordinary." Ji Kaiyang smiled slightly, "You can know yourself better."

"What are you talking about?" Yi Chen jumped over, "Personally attacking you?"

"What are you doing!" Ji Kaiyang pushed him, "I still have juice in my hand, it's all on me."

"You two, stop arguing." Just as they were arguing fiercely, Yi Bochuan knocked on the door, "Come out for dinner."

The dinner was very sumptuous, with garlic grilled shrimp, jellyfish head in sauce, sweet and sour pork with pineapple, tiger skin green pepper, and oxtail soup stewed with radish.

"Come on." Zhang Yun picked up a shrimp for each child, "The grades are out, anyway, they all went to No. [-] middle school, and the dust has settled for the time being. Take a break for the holidays, and you can't relax when you go to high school."

"Mom." Ji Kaiyang felt a little guilty.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Yun said slowly, "Eat it, you can eat it even if you're not performing well."

"Oh, look at you. Kai Yang has always been self-conscious. My child, why bother about these things." Yi Bochuan took Zhang Yun's bowl and filled him with a bowl of soup. Yang’s report card for the past few years was dragged out from the school’s academic affairs office. The wife of one of my colleagues is the grade director of this year’s No. [-] Middle School. I showed her the results and assigned Kai Yang to the experimental class at the beginning of school. It should work too."

"Uncle Yi." Ji Kaiyang threw the shrimp shells into the plate, "I'm in the parallel class, and I'm going to go to the experimental class after half a semester and just pass the exam."

"Don't, Dad." Yi Chen was secretly regretting that Ji Kaiyang couldn't go to the experimental class, and when he heard that there was a turning point, he hurriedly said, "Don't listen to him, you get him in."

"I don't need it." Ji Kaiyang glared at him.

"Why not..."

"Okay, okay." Zhang Yun said to Yi Bochuan, "You put Kaiyang in, what about Chenchen?"

"I don't need..." Yi Chen interrupted.

"Eat well." Zhang Yun tapped his bowl lightly with chopsticks, "Today's food is not good, can't you keep your mouth shut?"

She turned to look at Yi Bochuan and continued, "It's okay to let them take the exam by themselves, I've already enrolled them in the bridging class."

"No, Mom." The head of the jellyfish that Yi Chen was holding fell back into the plate, and the juice splashed on the tablecloth and Ji Kaiyang's T-shirt who got up to serve the meal. "You just, at most 2 minutes ago, you said Let's take a break for the holidays."

"You wait to wash the tablecloth and brother's clothes!" Yi Bochuan frowned, "It was you yesterday, all the soup was spilled, and you think mom doesn't have enough things every day? Do you look like a high school student?"

"Just put it in the washing machine. Why are you a naughty child? It's fine." Zhang Yun took the bowl Ji Kaiyang handed over, and handed him a piece of paper, "The transition class only has half a day of class every day, why isn't it a rest?"

"It's also good to go to the bridging class." Yi Bochuan agreed, "High school is no better than junior high school, and the competition in No. [-] Middle School is fierce. Xiao Li from the marketing department, her niece seems to have attended it last year, and said that the results are good. You report to them. When was it?"

"Li Nan?"

"Ah, yes." Yi Bochuan stopped chopsticks and smiled at Zhang Yun, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay. It starts the morning of the day after tomorrow. I signed up a little late. This is the last batch. Some people started to go when they heard it was a holiday."

"Start the day after tomorrow? Aren't you going to go back to your hometown for the funeral next Monday, and ask them for leave then?"

"What funeral? Who died?" Yi Chen looked at Ji Kaiyang curiously, but he didn't know.

"Your uncle passed away." Zhang Yun said.

Yi Chen was still confused, and Ji Kaiyang explained again, "It's my mother's uncle, and my grandmother's younger brother. I haven't seen him before."

It has been several years since Zhang Yun's mother passed away, and there are not many places for relatives to visit there, but weddings and funerals are important events, so I have to go there.

"I mean, the two children will not go. Their house is far away, and the road was blocked a few years ago. I don't know if it has been repaired now. There are too many mosquitoes in my hometown, and there is no place to live. In fact, you don't have to. Go, I'll be back in three to five days."

"It's fine if the child doesn't go." Yi Bochuan thought for a while, "I'll stay with you, I have already taken leave with the company. I haven't taken the annual leave in the past few years, so I will go here for a few days, when the time comes Come back and see if I can ask for another leave, and the family will go out to have fun..."

The rest of the time at the dinner table was spent discussing travel plans for the holiday, and at the end of the day, there was no discussion about why.Furthermore, it is hard to say whether Yi Bochuan will be able to grant another vacation, everything is unknown.

"Kaiyang, come here." After dinner, Yi Bochuan went out, Zhang Yun sent Yi Chen downstairs to throw out the trash, and called Ji Kaiyang into the kitchen.

"Is there anything you want to say?" Zhang Yun dumped the rest of the food into the trash can, "I don't believe my son will be so abnormal. Just now, your teacher Li called and said that she asked someone to check the paper. No. You didn’t write the first solution questions of physics and chemistry.”

Ji Kaiyang stopped the hand that tied her apron, "Mom, I'm sorry."

"Oh, it's not like she's acting out of order." Zhang Yun turned on the faucet, and Ji Kaiyang handed her the bowls one by one.

"Is it because of Chenchen?" Zhang Yun said.

"Yi Chen has just formed a habit. Once he goes to high school to change his environment and make new friends, he might go crazy again. I look at him and rest assured. It is during this time, Mom, you don't have to worry. After the half-term exam, you have to start again. For those who are divided into classes, I promise you that you will definitely be admitted."

"Then what if Chenchen doesn't pass the exam?"

"We'll talk about it when the time comes. In fact, we don't have to be in one class." Ji Kaiyang stroked the stray hair scattered on Zhang Yun's forehead, "It's just that school has just started, and I still don't want him to be alone."

"The two of you don't need to live on campus, and you go home every day. How can you be alone when you look up and see him?" Zhang Yun laughed softly, "Your Uncle Yi was still talking that day, you are an older brother, so worry about it." There are more parents than us. You, I have always been at ease. You look at Chenchen a little bit, this child is still too impetuous. But you don't have to be like this. It is not easy to go from the parallel class to the experimental class. You have been admitted to the experimental class, and it is not easy for us to find someone to put you into the parallel class? I didn’t even tell the adults, I was really shocked when I saw your grades today. I made my own decision, because I am afraid that we will disagree? "

Ji Kaiyang didn't say a word, it was a tacit agreement..

"You." Zhang Yun touched his forehead and sighed, "I'm thinking too much. Mom hopes that you will be more lively and heartless like Chenchen."

The mother and son were talking in the kitchen when the door was suddenly pushed open, and Yi Chen rushed in panting, "Mom!"

"what's wrong?"

Zhang Yun's hands were slippery, and the bowl almost fell, but Ji Kaiyang caught it quickly. "Didn't you throw out the trash? Why are you still carrying it?"

"I..." Yi Chen rolled his eyes around them, and when he got downstairs, he suddenly remembered that there were only Ji Kaiyang and Zhang Yun left at home, and he didn't bother to throw away the trash, so he ran away again came back.

Seeing that he didn't say anything for a long time, Zhang Yun pushed Ji Kaiyang, "I'm afraid I'll scold you, okay, you two go throw it together. By the way, take a walk outside, since the holiday Always at home, not exercising, going for a walk and coming back.”

"No way." Yi Chen grabbed her arm and acted like a baby, "Mom is the most gentle, so she won't scold people. How could I think so."

"Okay, okay. Don't stand in my way here, go out, bring a watermelon when you come back, and buy it at the store at the gate of the community..."

"Don't keep looking at me, can you?" The sun went down, and many people took advantage of this time to go out for activities.

"We have known each other for so many years, you still don't want to show it." Yi Chen was not ashamed when he was caught, but simply grabbed Ji Kaiyang's arm, "Don't move."

He approached Ji Kaiyang, the tip of his nose almost touched his face, looked at it carefully, let go of his hand in satisfaction, "I didn't cry."

"Boring, you think I'm you, and you can still cry after a few words." Ji Kai put his hands in his pockets and strode forward.

"Did you really scold you?" Yi Chen hurriedly caught up with him.

"Didn't you just say that mother is the gentlest and doesn't know how to curse?" Ji Kaiyang handed the ball that rolled under his feet to the toddler next to him, "I'll just use an analogy."

"How can there be such a metaphor, when did I cry, you just talk nonsense." Yi Chen looked unconvinced, "Have you been scolded?"

"No."

Yi Chen recalled the scene just now, and Zhang Yun really didn't look angry.

"But don't do this in the future." Ji Kaiyang next to him continued, "If you are really scolding me, what is the use of you coming back, maybe you will be scolded together."

"You don't want to be a donkey's liver and lungs." Yi Chen pulled him to walk on the gravel road next to him, "This is me, um... care will cause chaos."

"Oh, thank you then."

"No, I'm generous." Yi Chen winked at him.

They walked around the neighborhood three times, and only walked back slowly after buying watermelons.

"Ji Kaiyang." Yi Chen suddenly called him in a small voice, "Let me tell you the truth."

"Tell me." They bought a whole watermelon, and each of them picked up half of it.

"I'm actually quite happy." Yi Chen nodded as he said, as if affirming himself, "Although I don't think it's very good to say that, I'm really happy to continue to be in the same class with you. I just feel sorry for you."

"To say you are stupid, you are really not smart." Ji Kaiyang handed his bag in front of him, "Come on, carry it. Just take it as a reward."

"I'm serious!" Yi Chen yelled, "I made a lot of determination to say it, can you keep your seriousness?!"

"I know, please keep your voice down." Ji Kaiyang withdrew his hand and whispered a little embarrassedly, "Did I say that I was not happy?"
