The self-enrollment registration started. Liang Xuan and several students who were candidates were called to the head teacher's office to analyze the situation for them one by one. The strengths of these students are different, so they need to open up the gradient when choosing a school.Liang Xuan had the best grades, and the school suggested that he should go to Beijing. Liang Xuan took the application form and said that he would go back and discuss with his family.

Liang Xuan came out of the office and looked down as he passed the corridor. Li Yichu came back from the playground with a few boys, probably just after gym class.Li Yichu was wearing a turtleneck sweater and a down jacket draped over his shoulders. He was passing a basketball to his classmates while walking. His black hair was shining like ink in the winter sun because of sweat.Liang Xuan looked at the form in his hand and knew in his heart that where he went was decided by Li Yichu.

Because of the cold weather, the school cafeteria began to serve small hot pots for two people. An eight-inch pot sits on the alcohol stove. The soup base is uniform black-bone chicken soup. You can choose the ingredients and hot dishes freely. The price and taste are satisfactory, so Every meal time, the rows of tables in the cafeteria emit white smoke, and there is a lot of people, like a food stall on the side of the road in summer.

Liang Xuan was looking for a place with the alcohol stove, and Li Yichu went to the window to choose dishes, put the selected dishes into a big basket, and then weigh them together to calculate the price.Li Yichu returned to his seat with the vegetable basket, and put the vegetables into the hot pot together with Liang Xuan.There was a white mist between the two of them, and they couldn't see each other's faces clearly.

Liang Xuan: "Yichu, which city do you want to go to in the future?"

Li Yichu thought about it: "I like the south."

Liang Xuan: "What about going to college? Going to the South too?"

Li Yichu's chopsticks, which were scooping up vegetables in the pot, stopped when he heard the words, and looked at Liang Xuan puzzledly: "Don't you want to go to Beijing to go to university? Shouldn't you go to Beijing to take the self-enrollment exam after the Chinese New Year?"

Liang Xuan smiled: "Okay, let's go to Beijing."

Li Yichu guessed that Liang Xuan was worried about his grades, so he assured him: "Don't worry, I will definitely get a good grade in the exam. Even if I can't get into your school, I will definitely go to Beijing, and I will go to the one that is closer to Q University! "

Liang Xuan lowered the heat of the alcohol stove slightly, blew on the white smoke from the hot pot, and said to Li Yichu, "It's a deal. However, your grades...it's difficult to get into Beijing's ordinary second class."

Li Yichu was sucking on vermicelli in his mouth, and raised three fingers: "I will improve in this final exam, I will give you four!"

The two of them came out of the cafeteria after dinner. When night fell, a gust of cold wind blew their necks straight. Liang Xuan put Li Yichu's shoulders on his shoulders and walked towards the teaching building of the third year of senior high school. On the road, there are teaching buildings on the left and right sides, and there is a draft whistling in front of it, which is colder than coming out of the cafeteria just now.Liang Xuan went around in front of Li Yichu, and walked backward facing him, blocking most of the wind behind him.

Li Yichu stepped on Liang Xuan's shadow under the street lamp, Liang Xuan turned left and right when he saw this, Li Yichu smiled and said: "You walk backwards and still sway!"

Liang Xuan put his hands in his pockets and unfolded his clothes, showing off, "I have good balance."

Li Yichu glanced at him, then stared at the shadow on the ground, and after walking a few steps, he jumped forward while Liang Xuan was not paying attention, but unexpectedly Liang Xuan also jumped back immediately, and the shadow jumped out of Li Yichu's footsteps.Li Yichu swayed on the spot, ran towards Liang Xuan with claws and teeth, and was wrapped by Liang Xuan's clothes, Li Yichu raised his head from his clothes: "I like you so much, Liang Xuan."

Liang Xuan was a bit unaware of his sudden confession, and he stammered after a while: "I, I like you too."

The dim streetlights cast a soft halo on this long road. The shadows of the two people were stretched very long under the streetlights. Occasionally, some students passing by would choose to walk over from the other side when they saw the people hugging each other from a distance. No one noticed that it was two boys hugging.

Liang Xuan: "Don't put too much pressure on the final exam. It doesn't matter if you do well in the exam. In the future, no matter how far you are from Q, I will go to you."

Li Yichu said with a smile: "That's what you said, I hate taking the bus the most, so come find me in the future."

In order to reassure Liang Xuan a little, Li Yichu scored [-] to [-] points higher than usual in the final exam, entered the top ten in the class, and there was no problem with the second grade.In his heart, he didn't want the two adults in the family to pay more attention to his grades. He knew that no matter whether it was too good or too bad, it would cause disturbances in this originally peaceful family. The place.He couldn't tell whether it was because he was too grateful to the family, or because he always felt that he was an outsider. He was always afraid that anyone in the family would be unhappy.When Liu Fan and Liang Changping quarreled occasionally when they were young, Liang Xuan was calm, but Li Yichu was very worried and always urged Liang Xuan to make peace on both sides, so that they could reconcile as soon as possible.Perhaps this kind of worry that follows him like a shadow can only be relieved when he leaves this home, and now is not the time.As for Liang Xuan, Li Yichu thought that a good score in the college entrance examination should be able to offset the crimes he had kept from him for many years, right?Li Yichu's current concealment is ultimately because of Liu Fan, so why should he let Liang Xuan know now, and then make Liang Xuan feel dissatisfied with his mother?

As long as there is a good result in the end, the so-called grievances and forbearance in the past are not worth mentioning.At that time, they will have a high sky and a wide world, and they don't have to face their parents every day like now, and they don't have to hide it anymore.

Liang Xuan was very satisfied with Li Yichu's results this time. He didn't expect that Li Yichu would make progress if he said progress, and he didn't break his word at all.The day I got the notice was the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, and I went to school to get the notice and then it was winter vacation.Li Yichu got up in the morning and looked out the window, it was cold and damp, it was probably going to snow.The two of them washed up and went to the bus stop to wait for the bus. The uncle selling sweet potatoes was hawking beside the bus stop: "Hot red sweet potatoes—"

The bus was late, people were shivering in the cold wind, Liang Xuan went to the side and bought a sweet potato and handed it to Li Yichu: "Eat this to keep warm."

The sweet potato was too hot, Li Yichu peeled the skin and turned it back and forth with his left and right hands, and Liang Xuan pushed him onto the bus as soon as he took a bite.

After receiving the notice, the two went to the shopping plaza in the county center to buy melon seeds, fruits and other snacks for the New Year.When I was young, Liu Fan did the shopping. Li Yi and Liang Xuan took over the job after graduating from junior high school. They are two boys, and it is easier for them to lift heavy things than Liu Fan.

There was a lot of crowding in the supermarket, everyone came to buy things for the New Year. Liang Xuan and Li Yichu pushed the carts and walked in front of the rows of shelves, picking things one by one.

A voice came from the radio in the supermarket——Children Zhang Ke, your parent Zhang Pengwei is looking for you, please come to the workbench quickly and don't talk to strangers.

The broadcast played on a loop until the little one was brought to the parents.

Li Yichu heard the thanks on the radio, looked at Liang Xuan and said with a smile: "If you get lost later, I will look for you the same way."

Liang Xuan put something in the cart: "Then what if you lose it?"

Li Yichu looked left and right, pointed to the salesman who was on a high stand to sell special products, and said, "Then I'll just stand there and sing a song, waiting for you to find me."

Liang Xuan couldn't help laughing: "It's so embarrassing, I won't look for it."

Li Yichu took a large bag of sour plum candy from the shelf. Only Liu Fan loved this candy, and the other three men wanted to cry when they tasted it.So every New Year's Eve, when the family played cards and kept vigil, apart from losing money, they would take this sour plum candy as punishment, and whoever lost would eat it.

The two of them came out of the supermarket with a few big bags of things, and the sky really started to snow. The main road was outside the supermarket, and the Chinese New Year was approaching.They put the hoods of their down jackets on their heads and walked back along the road.

The snow was getting bigger and bigger. When they walked to the gate of the community, a thin layer of snow had already accumulated on the ground.The two walked into the corridor, jumped up and down to shake off the snow from their bodies, and went upstairs in three steps at a time.

Liu Fan is frying fish nuggets and meatballs at home. The freshly fried fish nuggets are fragrant and crispy, and the meat is so tender that there is no need to spit out the fishbone.Liu Fan put a plate on the coffee table in the living room: "You two eat something while it's hot, and you can only cook it when it's cold."

Liang Xuan took the plate and went straight into Li Yichu's bedroom.

Li Yichu took off his coat as soon as he got home, and wore a loose turtleneck sweater with a thick and high collar. When he lowered his head, most of his face was buried in it.He is squatting on the ground and putting together several plastic panels with tape. It often rains in winter, and the cardboard shell under the rabbit nest has to be replaced every other day, so he collects the discarded plastic panels at home and wants to give them Rabbits make a damp-proof pad.

Seeing that his hands were occupied, Liang Xuan picked out a piece of fish belly and handed it to his mouth.Li Yichu stuck his chin out from his collar, bit the fish and said while eating, "It's delicious!"

Liang Xuan: "We have to change the rabbit's nest tonight, otherwise it will snow all night and the roof will be buried tomorrow."

Li Yichu: "Then go find cotton wool."

Rabbits have a strong smell after defecating. Parents like to be clean and don’t want to have a smell at home, not to mention that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and it’s time for cleaning.So a few days ago, Liang Xuan applied to his parents to take the rabbit home to raise, but was ruthlessly rejected.The pet shop was closed for Chinese New Year, and the two of them had no better solution than moving the rabbit's nest to the garage on the first floor.

Fortunately, Liang Xuan had the foresight when he used wooden planks to make a nest for rabbits, and he made a very large one. Now after cleaning up, he can lay down several layers of old cotton clothes.Li Yichu built a thick waterproof cloth on the outside of the rabbit's nest to block the strong wind that sometimes seeps in from the garage entrance. After the nest was set up, Li Yichu put the two hot water bags filled with hot water on the cotton pad, and then hugged the rabbit. Entering the nest, patted its head and said: "I have wronged you these few days, but it's important to save your life, don't ask for trouble and run out."

To be on the safe side, the two surrounded the rabbit nest with wooden boards around a square meter area, so that even if the rabbit ran out to let the wind out, it would not be able to run too far.

It really started to snow that night. Li Yichu lay on the bed and heard the north wind whistling outside the window. He turned on the desk lamp and wiped away the mist on the glass with his hand to look out. The street lamp illuminated the snowflakes the size of ginkgo leaves falling from the sky, and the ground of the community was completely covered. , Can't tell where is the green belt and where is the cement road.Li Yichu sat leaning against the head of the bed for a while, and finally couldn't help but put on his coat and went downstairs.

There were only two lights in the garage, although Li Yichu had done nothing wrong, but coming to such a deserted place in the middle of the night, he was unavoidably apprehensive.He had to look back after walking a few steps, always feeling that someone was following him.When he got to the rabbit's nest, Li Yichu pushed the wooden boards away, walked in and lifted the thick curtain of the rabbit's nest to look inside. The rabbit that was lying in the nest immediately came to rub his hand.Li Yichu reached in to test the two warm water bags that he had put in at night, but they were no longer hot.Li Yichu took out the warm water bag, lowered his head and said to the little rabbit, "Is it cold? I'll go and change two bags of hot water for you, wait for me for a while."

Li Yichu put the wooden boards in place, quickly went upstairs and returned home, went to the kitchen to replace the cold water in the two hot water bags with hot water, and then went out lightly.

Without the hot water bottle, the cage is not much warmer than the outside. The rabbit doesn't like to nest in one place, so it ran out of the nest.Li Yichu walked to the wooden board and saw the rabbit was pawing the wooden board to escape from prison, and said with a smile, "Don't bother." Li Yichu squatted down and hugged the rabbit into his arms, feeling the temperature of its body, it was okay, not too cold.

Li Yichu couldn't bend down holding the rabbit, and was struggling to put the hot water bottle into the rabbit's nest, when he stretched out a hand to take his hot water bottle, and put it into the rabbit's nest.

Li Yichu turned his head and asked, "Why did you come down?"

Liang Xuan took the rabbit out of his arms and put it into the rabbit nest, and replied: "I heard movement in your room, so I came out to have a look."

Li Yichu clapped his hands and stood up: "Go up."

Liang Xuan made good protection around the rabbit nest, followed Li Yichu upstairs, and looked down to see Li Yichu's pale heels that were frozen.After entering the door, Li Yichu walked to the door of his bedroom, and Liang Xuan followed him into the bedroom.Li Yichu asked suspiciously: "What are you doing? Aren't you going to sleep?"

Liang Xuan pushed Li Yichu to the edge of the bed and sat down, held his calves and put his feet in his arms, heaved a sigh of relief on his hands and began to pinch his feet vigorously, criticizing him with a sullen face as he moved: "It's not easy to go out. If you know how to wear shoes, what's the use of your slippers with most of your feet exposed?"

Li Yichu's foot was pinched back and forth by him. He was so cold that he didn't feel it. Now it started to itch, and he was about to move his foot back soon. He smiled and said, "It's too itchy."

"Don't make trouble, you will be heard by adults later." Liang Xuan grabbed his ankle, his hands still kept moving, Li Yichu pinched the bed sheet with his fingers and smiled.

After about 10 to [-] minutes, Li Yichu's toes turned ruddy, Liang Xuan put his feet under the bed, and ordered: "Sleep, I will change the hot water bottle for the rabbit every night, so don't get up."

Li Yichu stepped forward and grabbed Liang Xuan's hand when he turned around.Liang Xuan turned to look at him, Li Yichu raised his head, like a little beggar, drooping the corners of his mouth and blinking his eyes at him.

Liang Xuan's heart softened, so he turned around and lowered his head to touch Li Yichu's lips: "Go to bed early, be good."
