Shallots

Chapter 3

Half a month has passed since the last time I invited parents. Lin Shixin's mother asked him all night why he fought with his classmates, but Lin Shixin couldn't tell. Wrong, he doesn't have a father, so he will definitely be bullied, and he cried for a long time before being persuaded by Lin Shixin.

There is a knife on the head of Ninja, and now Lin Shixin can only grit his teeth and endure Qiao Feng's provocations.For some unknown reason, when Qiao Feng passed by his seat, he would always touch his table nonchalantly, or suddenly sneer.Before this time, Lin Shixin was like a thin and helpless stray dog, small in size, with piercing eyes, bristling hair, and slightly curled fists.

Qi Feiran's jet lag for many years is difficult to reverse. During class, he always sleeps on his stomach. He was suddenly bumped by the back of the chair in front of him a few times. He squinted his eyes and could see Qiao Feng passing by.He got up and looked with great interest at the suddenly shrunken shoulders of the person in front of him, and Lin Shixin's relaxation after Qiao Feng passed by.Interesting, do these two have a relationship?Or school bullying?

Qi Feiran is not a talkative person. He joined the class for two weeks, except for a fight with the monkey at the front table, and after he was awarded the title of Pushing Frog, nothing major happened.He thought that he "lost" and that the winner, Lin Shixin, would push him as a frog every day, but when he came back, he didn't make a sound.Qi Feiran took a stack of answer sheets from the teacher in charge, and he scribbled while listening to music when he returned home. He made mistakes many times before, all because of his whim, he scribbled casually, and didn’t want to be honest. In the grid, but after being taught a lesson, he can already hold his breath like embroidering, and the grids are clean and orderly.

Qi Feiran doesn't want to have anything to do with Frog anymore.

Summer is over, and autumn wind is picking up. Lin Shixin, like in the past, went to Beishan with his cousin Lin Shidong and cousin Lin Shiyu to pick autumn white peaches. Autumn white peaches are a local specialty. The skin is white and red inside, and the flesh is red near the pit. , When you break it apart gently, the core will be separated from the pulp. The taste is sweet and sour, and it will not go bad after being stored for more than ten days.

Lin Shixin and the others go to the mountains every year to buy them for a few cents a catty, and then transport them to the city by car. They can sell them for two yuan a catty. Those that cannot be sold are dried in the sun, similar to dried sweet potatoes, and cost five yuan. The money was taken out in a bag, and the kid next door was hungry. Lin Shixin tied the bags with a beautiful paper bag bought online, and sold them at the entrance of the Central Primary School near his home.

This day, he was carrying a large schoolbag, filled with more than a dozen packages of dried white peaches, and carried another bag with seven or eight packages in his hand. He swayed to the school gate, and the yoga mat fell off with a shake, and a long piece He slowly arranged the dried peaches one by one.Lin Shixin was shy and didn't yell. When a child came to poke his head, he would just say "dried peaches".More than an hour later, there were only five packs left on the yoga mat. At this time, a relatively large child held a basketball in one hand and walked slowly to the front of his stall hesitantly, blocking the sunlight from which he was looking down and playing with his mobile phone.

Lin Shixin looked up, "Ah, frog."

Qi Feiran raised his eyebrows and looked at him coldly.

Lin Shixin coughed, "Coincidentally, are you here to play? Well, I'm practicing outside of class here."

Qi Feiran looked at the things on his stall curiously, as if trying to figure out what it was.

"Dried peaches, have you ever seen them? Have you ever eaten them?" Lin Shixin asked, "I have never seen this kind of common food for a young master like you."

"Tao... Gan'er?" Qi Feiran added an accent.Lin Shixin stood up, stuffed one bag into Qi Feiran's hands, and stuffed the others into the backpack together, and walked home, "Peaches are sun-dried and eaten as snacks, haven't you eaten them? Try it." Qi Feiran followed Lin Shixin's steps slowly, shaking dried peaches in his hand.Lin Shixin walked for a while, then looked back at him, "Why don't you eat?"

Qi Feiran said, "I played ball and didn't wash my hands."

Lin Shixin: "..."

You don't want me to feed you.Lin Shixin turned around and continued to walk forward, "Okay, my house is right in front, you can come to my house. It's very elegant on the big weekend, come to this remote elementary school to play ball."

Qi Feiran thought to himself, you also have a good taste, come here to practice in society.

Lin Shixin walked for a while and realized, "Ah, there are many people in the basketball courts of high school and junior high school. I see that you usually don't like to play with others when you play after class. You always shoot basketballs by yourself. Hahahahaha, you Didn't you come here specially to bully children and steal other people's venues? Hahahaha, you are really wicked!"

Qi Feiran thought to himself, if you come to sell dried peaches at the gate of the school to earn children's money, you are not wicked.

After a while, Lin Shixin's home arrived. It was a shop on the first floor of a building that looked old. The small shop sold vegetables, fruits, cigarettes, sugar and wine. It didn't look like there were many kinds, but the shelves were clean and the goods were neatly arranged.Qi Feiran threw the ball on the ground and looked around.Lin Shixin walked to the sink on the side outside the store, turned on the tap, washed his hands under the sound of running water, and raised his chin to Qi Feiran after washing, signaling him to come over.

Qi Feiran looked left and right, carefully placed the package of dried peaches on the stool, walked over to the faucet to wash his hands, and stretched his head over to rinse. Just as Lin Shixin opened his mouth to remind him, he saw Qi Feiran let out an ah, and moved his head away. out.

"Hahahahaha this is well water, very cold! Are you stupid?"

Qi Feiran turned around and stared indifferently at Lin Shixin, who was rocking back and forth with a smile, his hair was dripping in locks and locks.

Lin Shixin sighed, turned around and went into the room with a washbasin with a white koi carp. Some hot water was already filled in it, some well water was connected to it, and it was put on the ground, and then went into the room and took it out. Shampoo and towel, put the towel on his elbow like a shampoo boy, and looked at Qi Feiran.

Qi Feiran obediently put his head into the basin and began to wash his hair. Where the foam could not reach, Lin Shixin, a man with obsessive-compulsive disorder, saw that he couldn't wash the foam behind his ears no matter how he thumped, so he wiped it off with his hand.His fingers were slender and cold, licking the base of his ear like a little snake wagging its head, Qi Feiran's breath stagnated.

After washing and drying their hair, Lin Shixin and Qi Feiran sat on the small bench. Qi Feiran opened the package of dried peaches, took out a piece, and chewed it in his mouth hesitantly.Lin Shixin looked expectant: "How is it? Is it delicious? Is it sour? Is it sweet?"

Qi Feiran was stunned by Yuanyuan's eyes looking at him, "It's okay, sweet and sour." After tasting it for a while, he said, "Fresh peaches are still delicious."

Lin Shixin snorted, "What do you know, this kind of dried has a special flavor." He glanced at the Chinese cabbage and radish washed by Lin Yuee by the pool, and suddenly felt bad, "Some ingredients are suitable for drying Eat, there are some ingredients, suitable for the original flavor."

After speaking, he stood up, walked to the pool, picked up a cabbage clapper, and gestured to Qi Feiran, "For example, this Chinese cabbage, we Chinese like to eat it raw."

Qi Feiran was selected to be at the G spot. When he was young, he was sent to a foreign country for Western education. Now he speaks English better than Mandarin, but deep down, he is always proud of being a Chinese, full of national pride feel.He didn't eat lettuce salads abroad, but it was the first time he knew that cabbage could be eaten raw, so he couldn't help but look longingly at the cabbage in Lin Shixin's hand.

Lin Shixin hesitated for a moment, walked up to Qi Feiran, and handed it to him, "Try it? Chinese taste."

Qi Feiran took it and took a closer look. The clapper was snow-white and the leaves were light green. After washing it not long ago, there were still small drops of water near his nose, and the fragrance of vegetables.Qi Feiran crunched a piece and chewed it, the juice was sweet to quench his thirst, while chewing, he said, "This is much tastier than that dried peach."

Lin Shixin endured the internal injury with a smile, and tried to breathe calmly, not to make his voice sound suspicious, "It seems that you like the original flavor."

Qi Feiran chewed the piece in his hand, his eyes were still looking at the cabbage left in the basin by the sink, Lin Shixin walked over and brought over both the radish and cabbage, sat on the small stool opposite Qi Feiran, and handed him another piece "Hey, I'll give it all to you." Qi Feiran took it and crunched it.

Lin Shixin looked at it and wondered, is this cabbage so sweet?He looked at Qi Feiran suspiciously, he didn't lie to me on purpose, Lin Shixin broke off a small piece suspiciously, put it in his mouth and ate it, it was really delicious, it seems that the goods that his mother bought this time were fresher .

The two of them ate for a while and couldn't get enough of it. Lin Shixin also took some radishes from the store and brought them out. The emerald green radishes were very fresh, only the skin was a bit spicy. Lin Shixin stared at him blankly, hesitating whether to follow suit, when Lin Yuee came back on her bicycle.

"Xinxin, is this your classmate?"

Qi Feiran looked up at her, stood up and nodded, "Hello, Auntie."

"Ah, hello, hello, this big guy has thick eyebrows and big eyes, so handsome!"

Lin Shixin said, "Mom, you're back!" Looking at Qi Feiran, "This is my classmate Qi Feiran."

Lin Yuee looked at the cabbage clappers and radish slices in the hands of the two of them, and was stunned, "Hey, how hungry are you, this is raw?! I'll cook right away! Stewed pork ribs!"

Qi Feiran stood up, "Don't be busy, Auntie, it's getting dark, I'm leaving."

Lin Yuee grabbed Qi Feiran's arm, "Don't go, don't go, the ribs are still simmering in the pot, I'll order some cabbage... Well, I've eaten the cabbage, I'll order some winter melon, it'll be ready in a while!"

Qi Feiran didn't know what to do for a moment, Lin Shixin patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go after dinner, you're fine." He didn't have any friends either.

Lin Shixin had discovered early on that Qi Feiran was like a lone ranger, without any friends, and he deliberately avoided others every day, and didn't leave the classroom immediately after class, as if he didn't want to go with others.

Lin Yuee made a large pot of stewed winter melon and corn ribs. She is small and thin, and it was a bit difficult for her to bring the casserole to the table. Qi Feiran stood up, "Auntie, let me do it." Lin Yuee said, "Sit down, you sit down." It's all right." After a while, the hot and fragrant white rice was brought over. Lin Shixin lowered his head and picked up the meat in the pot with chopsticks. He liked to eat the part with small white crispy bones.

Qi Feiran took two bites, looked up and saw Lin Yuee staring at him with a smile on his face, Lin Yuee asked him: "Is the stew spoiled? I put it on the stove at 04:30." Qi Feiran said: "It's very soft. It tastes good." Lin Yuee hummed twice, "It's delicious, eat more, that, Lin Shixin has never brought friends home to play."

Lin Shixin, who was stuffing rice into his mouth, looked up and gave Lin Yuee a warning look.

Lin Yuee didn't seem to notice, "We are Xinxin, how are we doing in school?"

Qi Feiran understood, "He's doing really well, he's studying well."

Lin Yuee smiled, "Yes, he studies very well, what about other aspects?"

Qi Feiran thought for a while, "Other aspects, teachers and classmates like him quite a lot." Apart from female students, male students also like him quite a lot.

Lin Yuee breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. In the class, study is important, but you also have to be friendly to your classmates, and you can't always fight."

Lin Shixin snorted, and said, "Mom, don't ask, do you still want to eat?" Lin Yuee snatched the rice bowl from Qi Feiran's hand, and filled another bowl, Qi Feiran looked at him thoughtfully , it seems that his mother didn't know anything about him being molested at school.Also, it's not a girl, this kind of thing is always difficult to say.

After eating, Lin Shixin and Qi Feiran walked together under the street lamps. The long street lamps dragged people's shadows for a long, long time. Qi Feiran's pockets were bulging. There were unfinished dried peaches, and The big oranges and apples that Lin Yuee stuffed into his trouser pocket, if Qi Feiran hadn't screamed, Lin Yuee might not have finished, the stuff stuffed into his trousers would have been so much that he couldn't tie the belt of his sweatpants, revealing his boxer briefs.

"No need to send it off, how far have you traveled." Qi Feiran stopped and said to Lin Shixin.

Lin Shixin looked at him like he was insane, and raised the garbage bag in his hand, "You think too much, I'm taking out the garbage."

Throwing the garbage bag into the trash can with a whoosh, Lin Shixin walked back without looking back.

Qi Feiran looked at his stubborn back and smiled.
