Don't break it, I'm bent

The sun and the moon alternate, leaving only the afterimage of the phoenix flower, swaying with the breeze.

As night fell, the hot music ended, the lights on the central stage of the playground suddenly turned on, and the voice of the host announcing the official start of the music festival came from the microphone.Off the stage, applause and shouts overlapped, warm and joyful.

Jiang Yun stood at the end of the crowd, and beside her was his classmate Huang Qi.

Huang Qi was crying with Jiang Yun, the girlfriend who promised him to be together the day before yesterday turned around and went out to drink with Xi Cao from the art department next door, and then fell asleep.Moreover, our classmate Huang Qi also delivered an impassioned speech about being green.

After some reflections, Jiang Yun didn't feel much.On the contrary, the big brother next to Huang Qi gave him a sympathetic look, and the big brother even wanted to comfort him, but unfortunately our Huang Qi didn't give the enthusiastic big brother a chance.Huang Qi just glared at him, then turned his head and continued to tell Jiang Yun about the follow-up of his being green.

How should I put it, Jiang Yun is not surprised that Huang Qi was greened.You know, Huang Qi's ex-girlfriends probably can gather several percussion bands together, and the girl of Green Huangqi's classmate is probably the most sensible among Huang Qi's many girlfriends.

"Brother Jiang, let me tell you, that man deserves it." As he said, Huang Qi showed a wretched smile, "The next day, when that man was taking a bath in the dormitory, that man slipped and fell. , and then folded to the things below, I heard that there are sequelae left, so I may not lift it.”

Jiang Yun: "..."

"You're talking about Wu Jian, right?" The big brother next to him started to gossip, "It's from our dormitory."

Now, Huang Qi fell silent, "..."

This is really a coincidence.

"Ha, even I can't get used to Wu Jian." The big brother next to him continued to complain about the unlucky guy who didn't lift up because he took a bath, "He usually pretends to be all kinds of things, and he sleeps with a few girls every day if he doesn't show off in the dormitory. Just to show off how he knocked on other people's corners. And he is crooked, disgusting to death, gay, and doesn't wear clothes in the dormitory every day, who can show his few taels of flesh."

Jiang Yun is not a gossip guy, and he doesn't like chatting with people he doesn't know, so he chooses to keep silent.

But this big brother obviously aroused Huang Qi's curiosity, so Huang Qi changed his disgust just now and asked familiarly: "Then how is he now?"

"Hey, what can I do, the whole person is so shriveled, it's just below, and I don't need that thing." When the big brother spoke, the corners of his mouth almost reached behind his ears, "But even if he doesn't shrive , Those girls will not come to hook him up again, I heard that the grass of our department has been changed long ago."

Hook up?

Huang Qi frowned, "..."

These words are somewhat sour and disrespectful.

He didn't really like the way the man spoke.

"It seems to be called Xie Ran, an exchange student?" The elder brother said to himself, "Actually, I think it's just like that, just a bad face."

Jiang Yun's face darkened, and he said, "Let's go."

"Yeah." Huang Qi is notoriously tactful, but at this moment, he doesn't want to continue chatting with this big man who is as black as coal in front of him.This really complies with that sentence, it's not speculative.

Changing the place, Huang Qi asked, "Brother Jiang, is the Xie Ran that the nigger is talking about the Xie Ran in your dormitory?"

Jiang Yun was slightly taken aback, and responded with a "hmm".

Out of some kind of self-confidence, Huang Qi said surprisingly, "Do you like him?"

Jiang Yun didn't seem surprised by Huang Qi's question. Sooner or later, people would find out about it. He was already mentally prepared, but after being asked, he still felt turbulent in his heart. .

"Yeah." Jiang Yun acted calmly, but his heart was complicated.

Jiang Yun wanted to ask him how he found out, but after thinking about it, Huang Qi has rich experience in love, and he can find out the shortcomings.What about Xie Ran?Will he find out?If found out, what will Xie Ran do?Will you hate him?

Huang Qi obviously didn't know what Jiang Yun was thinking, he smiled and said, "Brother Jiang, do you want to know how I figured it out?"

Jiang Yun: "How can you tell?"

"Because when you look at him, there is always light in your eyes. That kind of look is revealed by people who like a lot." When Huang Qi said this, the gradually blurred figure.

Jiang Yun put his hands in his pockets and asked sideways, "Don't you feel sick?"

"Why is it disgusting?" Although Huang Qi is not gay, he feels that every relationship is worthy of respect. "Isn't it normal to like someone? What's more, I also think Xie Ran is quite handsome."

Jiang Yun was silent, "..."

Huang Qi continued: "Brother Jiang, don't listen to what that idiot said just now. Let me tell you, that idiot is definitely gay. If he can't eat grapes, he says grapes are sour."

"How did you know?"

Huang Qi said bluntly: "Intuitively, looking at him like that, he is attacking girls and gossiping about Wu Jian's private affairs. What is it if he is not in love? A normal person, who talks like that idiot."

Jiang Yun: "Yes."

"Brother Jiang, I don't know if I should say something or not." Huang Qi didn't wait for Jiang Yun to speak, and said, "Actually, I think Xie Ran likes you too."

Jiang Yun's left eyelid twitched, and said coldly: "Impossible, he... likes girls, I've seen them before."

Jiang Yun is unwilling to face such a fact, but the fact is the fact, the fact is that Xie Ran sent a love letter to the girl he likes in front of him.

"However, I still think he is gay and likes you very much." Huang Qi never doubted his intuition, "Is there any misunderstanding between you?"

Jiang Yun pursed his lips and said, "No." After finishing speaking, he stopped talking.

He didn't want to continue this topic, he was afraid that if he continued the conversation, he would really think that Xie Ran had feelings for him.But only he knew that it was impossible.

Classmate Huang Qi is not trying to persuade him, the matter of feelings still needs to be seen clearly by the person concerned.

On the stage, the hostess announced the name of the next program in a sweet voice, wow the band is ready.Wow Band is a band spontaneously formed by school students. Although the level is not as good as professional bands, the overall performance is not bad, which can greatly stimulate the atmosphere on the field.

The leader of the band can also be considered a talent, who can adapt songs or whatever.

Take the current program as an example, it is the most popular divine song at the moment - "I Just Met You", the song is directly changed into a rap version, and electronic music is added, which sounds quite exciting.

"Because I don't want to be separated."

"Yeah, because I just met you, I left ten years of expectations."

......

Huang Qi likes to be lively. He sings along with the stage and goes crazy together.I have to say that our classmate Huang Qi is still very talented in singing, even better than the lead singer on stage.

"Brother Jiang, you're here too." Huang Qi didn't forget to bring Jiang Yun along while reveling.

Jiang Yun waved his hand and said, "You play."

"Meet you!" Huang Qi continued to sing rap, somewhat crazy.

At that time, Xie Ran had just arrived at the playground, and the hustle and bustle of the atmosphere did not attract him.It can be said that apart from Jiang Yun, none of these are enough to attract him.

Standing in the stands, he immediately saw Jiang Yun standing behind the crowd, and Huang Qi who was shaking his head like a madman.

A smell of vinegar began to waft from the stands.Perhaps feeling the coolness, Huang Qi turned his head and saw nothing, so he continued to sing happily.

Until, the sour Xie appeared in front of them, and when Huang Qi wanted to chat with Jiang Yun, he was almost startled by his eyes.

"Ayun," Xie pouted, and stood on Jiang Yun's right side, separating him from Huang Qi, "You don't wait for me."

Huang Qi: "..."

Ah this...

Jiang Yun threw the pot back to Xie Ran, "Aren't you sleepy?"

"Didn't I wake up?" Xie said sourly, "Ayun, you came here so early just to shake your head here with Huangmao? It's like taking medicine."

Huang Qi: "..."

Ma De, you are not happy like this, why are you still attacking personally?

Jiang Yun tugged Xie's clothes and signaled him not to attack Huang Qi any more.

Xie, who received Jiang Yun's signal, stopped talking about Huang Qi, but began to tease Jiang Yun secretly to swear an oath of sovereignty, "Ah Yun, do you want to drink orange soda?"

Jiang Yun: "..."

Speaking of orange soda, Jiang Yun's ears turned red, and he vowed never to drink orange soda again.

But the reality is, there is always something against him.

As soon as the evening wind blows, Xie Ran's seemingly indistinct citrus scent slowly wraps around Jiang Yun, like a hug, making people yearn and obsessed.

Jiang Yun enjoyed this feeling very much, even if Xie Ran just stood side by side with him, he was already very satisfied, if he wanted to hug, it would be too greedy.

Huang Qi, who was separated, poked his head towards Jiang Yun out of curiosity, and when he saw the soft expression on Jiang Yun's cheek, he said, "Unexpectedly, Brother Jiang also likes the performance on stage. .”

Yes, Huang Qi did it on purpose.

Of course he knew that Jiang Yun's expression was entirely because of Xie Ran, so he said that.The purpose is to help Jiang Yun test Xie Ran, although he is 90.00% sure that Xie Ran also likes Jiang Yun, but after hearing Jiang Yun's words, he feels that it is safer to test.

Why do you want to help Jiang Yun?

The reason is very simple, because Jiang Yun helped him repair his cell phone and kept important things for him, so it's fair for him to help Jiang Yun.

Who made him Jiang Yun's best friend?

As expected by Huang Qi, Xie Ran leaned into Jiang Yun's ear and said something, and then left for a while.

When I saw Xie Ran again, the host had already announced the title of the program, "A river of smoke and water shines on the clear sky, and people on both sides of the strait connect with painted eaves. Next, please enjoy the guitar solo "Southward."

The host was the Chang Cheng that Jiang Yun and the others had met downstairs in the dormitory during the day. Although the girl was shy, she should be considered the most professional among the four hosts.

After Chang Cheng's voice fell, the lights changed, and Xie Ran, who was wearing a light green casual jacket, was already standing by the stage. He was holding a guitar he found from nowhere.

Before the performance started, there was an uproar in the audience, screaming one after another.

Jiang Yun heard the voice of the girl closest to him, "I'll give you three seconds, I want all his contact information, this man's wife is about to be settled."

Another girl beamed and said, "Come on, I'll give you 100 million, and give this man to me."

The two spoke so eloquently that those who didn't know it almost believed it.

Jiang Yun just smiled slightly, thinking: If they work hard, maybe they can do it.

"Hey, Brother Jiang, grab your man quickly." Huang Qi said beside him, he couldn't help but wonder what method Xie Ran used to jump in the line to perform on stage.Out of curiosity, Huang Qi noticed the shy host Chang Cheng on stage.The girl in a white dress gave him some other thoughts.

Or, try?

Jiang Yun was startled when this voice appeared in his mind.He didn't dare, he was afraid that if they failed, they might not even have to be friends...

Jiang Yun's face was indescribably ugly, "No."

Huang Qi also found out, so he didn't dare to mention it again.

On the stage, Xie Ran sat on a high chair, facing Jiang Yun's direction.Even though the audience is crowded with people, he can still recognize his Ayun in the crowd at a glance, it's just that these people are too noisy.How good would it be if there were only him and Ayun?

When the accompaniment sounded, Xie Ran lightly plucked the strings of the guitar, his thin lips opened slightly, and the singing voice passed through the microphone and was amplified.

"He who is pure white with flying snow on the top of Saibei Mountain"

"Will you miss the flowers in the south of the Yangtze River?"

"Migratory birds whirl back and forth under the eaves with the sound of wind and sand zither"

......

The song is light, as if it can bring people to a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and taste the unique taste of misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

When he was young, his family was still rich, and Jiang Yun traveled to many places.Among them, he likes Jiangnan the most, and the small town in Jiangnan always gives him an indescribable sense of comfort.Perhaps, at that time, he had never received love from his family, so the sense of security he felt when facing the customs of the small town in Jiangnan made him have a soft spot for Jiangnan.

"Going South" is one of the few songs that Jiang Yun occasionally plays on a loop.

After growing up, he left Beijiang City and returned to his hometown Changzhou, and he never went to Jiangnan Town again.

Another reason why Jiang Yun has a special liking for the small town in the south of the Yangtze River is that there are fond memories of him and Xie Ran in that place, even better memories than Beijiang City.He listened to "Going South", thinking about the small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and recalling the memories he had with Xie Ran there.That way, he won't feel less sad.

Xie Ran actually didn't know so much, he just wanted to take Jiang Yun to a small town in the south of the Yangtze River again, and tell him that he liked him.Then carry him on his back, and walk the road that he walked before, this time, it's him carrying him on his back.

"A smile becomes the most beautiful love story"

After the singing fell, the fluorescent sticks in the audience were still shaking.Many people were intoxicated by it, regardless of who was singing on stage.

When the host came to the stage, the audience applauded louder and louder, and many active girls went backstage to intercept the handsome guy who had just stepped off the stage.

Xie Ran is indifferent, he doesn't want to talk to these people in front of him, he just wants to find his Ayun.

However, when he returned to his original position after dealing with those peach blossoms, Huang Qi was the only one left, and Jiang Yun disappeared at some point.

Xie Ran asked Huang Qi with an unfriendly expression, "Where did Jiang Yun go?"

Huang Qi, who was busy asking for Chang Cheng's contact information, realized that Jiang Yun had disappeared. He looked around and said, "Hey, he was still here just now. Why did he disappear when I turned around? Maybe he went to Did you go to the bathroom?"

After finishing speaking, Huang Qi then contacted his good brother to ask for Chang Cheng's contact information.

Xie Ran walked back, away from the lively crowd, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Jiang Yun's number.

Ten seconds later, the phone prompts that the line is busy, Xie Ran puts away the phone, stands on the stand, looks around, looking for Jiang Yun's figure.

Fortunately, the moment he turned his head from the highest position in the stands, he saw Jiang Yun standing in the flower field.

Jiang Yun was on the phone while smoking a cigarette. There was a slight coolness between his brows and eyes, which always gave people a feeling of repelling others thousands of miles away.For some reason, he turned his head suddenly and saw Xie Ran standing on a high place.

Xie Ran waved at him, and then got off the stands.

Jiang Yun subconsciously dimmed the cigarette butt and threw it in the trash can beside him, just like a child who made a mistake and was caught.

When Xie Ran finished playing, he happened to receive a call from Zhang Deer.Then he found such a quiet place, chatted with Zhang De'er, and lit a cigarette while feeling irritable.He didn't expect Xie Ran to find him.

"Brother, thank you." Zhang De'er looked at his grandfather outside the intensive care unit with a heavy heart, but he felt lucky that he knew such a good brother.

Jiang Yun gave a "hmm" and said, "You're welcome."

People's sorrows and joys are never figured out, but the same experience will make people feel the same.

When chatting by chance, Jiang Yun learned about Zhang De'er's life experience.

Zhang De'er was actually an orphan. On a snowy night, Grandpa Zhang picked him up under the bridge, brought him home, and became a family.

Grandpa Zhang is a veteran who retired from the battlefield in southern Yunnan. When he was young, Grandpa Zhang beat bandits and lost his leg. When he returned to his hometown, the girl he liked also married.The family conditions were not good, so he never remarried.

Now the country provides good benefits to veterans, but Grandpa Zhang cannot enjoy them.

I heard from Zhang De'er that Grandpa Zhang didn't know a lot of Chinese characters. He was tricked into resigning from the party after retiring from the army, and now he can't enjoy many benefits.

After retiring from the army, Grandpa Zhang made a living by picking up garbage, and it was precisely because of picking up garbage that he picked up Zhang Deer, the grandson.Whenever he talked about this matter, Grandpa Zhang always had a proud smile on his face. For him, the relationship between him and Zhang Deer was established by picking up trash.It was picking up trash and giving them fate.

Grandpa Zhang divided the income from picking up garbage and the income of the disabled into two parts, one part was kept to support Zhang Deer, and the other part he helped a few children who couldn't afford to study.According to Grandpa Zhang, if he doesn't study, he will suffer a lot in the future, and he will suffer a lot from being illiterate.So no matter how difficult it was, he still wanted to send Zhang De'er to school.

Zhang Deer also lived up to expectations, he has been No.1 in the class since he was a child.He said that every time Grandpa Zhang went to a meeting for him and the teacher praised him, Grandpa Zhang always smiled happily.When he said this, Jiang Yun thought, Zhang Deer also had a smile on his lips.

Although the days are poor, he is already very satisfied.These are Zhang Del's original words.

Because the nine-year education in Yiwu only ends at junior high school graduation, and high school students need to pay tuition fees, which are only a few hundred tuition and book fees, but they cannot afford it.Grandpa Zhang always told him that he was still young and he didn't have to worry about money.But Zhang De'er didn't want to study anymore. He watched his grandfather ride a tricycle every day at three or four o'clock in the morning to pick up garbage, and he didn't come home until ten o'clock in the evening.Once, he quietly followed Grandpa Zhang out in the morning, and followed him from a distance.He looked at Grandpa Zhang's bony back. Grandpa Zhang kept on boarding the tricycle, but the car was going very slowly. He wanted to push it, but he was afraid that his grandpa would scold him.

Later, the mud house they lived in leaked, and the black felt was torn, but there was no money to replace it, so they had to take a bucket of glue to repair it when it rained.The black felt is getting bigger and bigger, but the rainy season doesn't go away anyway. The place where Grandpa Zhang sleeps is facing several holes, so he can't sleep.

Zhang De'er woke up in the middle of the night, looking at Grandpa Zhang who was curled up in a thin quilt because he couldn't resist the cold, he realized that it was time for him to grow up.

Zhang De'er dropped out of school behind Grandpa Zhang's back. Because of her excellent studies, the class teacher did not approve, and persuaded Zhang De'er to continue studying.Zhang De'er had no choice but to skip class every day, go over the wall to distribute leaflets and serve dishes, earning money vigorously.

After missing many classes, the class teacher finally agreed to Zhang Deer's withdrawal from school.Zhang De'er said that he still remembered that the head teacher scolded him at that time, and then said that he would regret it in the future, but until now, he has not regretted it.

He didn't make a lot of money, but he didn't let his grandpa pick up the trash anymore either.

He told Grandpa Zhang about dropping out of school, and Grandpa Zhang was going to take him back to school that day, begging the school leaders to give him another chance.At that moment, Zhang De'er knelt down. He didn't want to make Grandpa Zhang so hard. He vowed that he would return to school when the days were better.

Grandpa Zhang sat on the chair for the elderly, covering his face and crying.

It was the first time Zhang Deer saw an old man cry. No matter how difficult it was in the past, Grandpa Zhang was like a giant, holding up a world for him, and he will also support their home for grandpa in the future.

The author says:

There is another part about Zhang De'er, which is going to be put on the sidelines.
