Counterattack the scumbags

"

After the words fell, he lifted his thin eyelids and looked over with a half-smile.

Qi Yuan: "...I don't know, it's not me, I don't."

"The college entrance examination is coming soon, don't be distracted by the little pink peach blossom," Tao Anran smiled, "Brother Yuan."

He bit the end of his voice very lightly, and that "Brother Yuan" seemed to have a hook, and gently hooked Qi Yuan's heart. There was an immediate response.

Qi Yuan bowed slightly, supported the back of the front seat dejectedly, resting his head on his arms, feeling speechless about his honest body.

"What's the matter?" Tao Anran leaned over, subconsciously put his hand on his knee.

Qi Yuan: "..." I might explode.

"Don't... don't touch me, don't talk to me, let me try to forcefully enter the sage time."

Tao Anran reacted, immediately withdrew her hand, and looked at his boyfriend's aggrieved back with a suppressed smile.

After 10 minutes, the entire grade sat down in the chaos, and the outgoing student union chairman temporarily took over the presiding task. After rectifying the discipline, the principal was invited to give a speech.

The principal is a kind-hearted old man who took office last year. He is said to be an old man. He is actually not very old, but he is just a little anxious. Of course, it may also be the result of hard work in education.

The principal has a meek personality, he speaks slowly, making people drowsy. Halfway through the speech, the auditorium has reached the effect of complete silence—most of the boys have already begun to kowtow like headworms.

Qi Yuan sat up straight, moved his arm close to Tao Anran, and whispered in his ear, "Come to my house to review at night?"

Tao Anran gave him a funny look, "OK."

Qi Yuan sighed, pulled down his trousers calmly, and lay down comfortably on the back of the chair.

The process of the coming-of-age ceremony was carried out in an orderly manner. After the principal's speech, the chairman of the student union delivered a speech on behalf of the hundreds of people present, and then, it was their ingenious free speech stage of "Flying My Dream" this year.

The students were unexpectedly energetic during this session, and showed a great desire to participate. One by one, they came to the stage, all of them were full of red faces, and they expressed all kinds of dreams. Among them, there was one who planned to enter a Buddhist academy and take over a dilapidated temple.

He said: "I have already seen through my classmates. The world of mortals is vain, which is meaningless. When I have my own temple in the future, you are welcome to add some sesame oil money."

After stepping down, he distributed the amulets he consecrated by chanting sutras to the students around him for free.

Hu Qian was speechless, "This guy is a bit crazy."

Li Hao rubbed his chin and said, "But he is a man with dreams, do you have any?"

The fat man looked at him, "No."

Qi Yuan turned to Tao Anran, "Do you have a dream?"

Tao Anran thought for a while and said, "Not really."

In the past, Tao Anran's thoughts were limited to the path of learning, such as which high school to take, which university to go to, and which advanced major to study.Later, he was pulled into reality by fate, and found that the truth leading to the future needs RMB to pave, so he simply and rudely changed his direction.Later, Qi Yuan entered his life without warning. Although he didn't know how far they could go, but in the picture of the future that he occasionally conceived, this person gradually became clear, so clear that he no longer knew. What life would be like without him.

But these have nothing to do with "dreams", but only with "future".

The burst of applause around him interrupted Tao Anran's train of thought, and he realized that Qi Yuan got up and left at some point, and stood on the stage.

The author has something to say: Accidentally, it crossed zero, hey......

☆、Chapter 58

The applause faded away, Qi Yuan stood on the stage and bowed upright, and stood in front of Li Mai.

Tao Anran's shoulders and back were tense, and he looked over intently, even more nervous than himself when he was on stage, and his palms were slightly sweaty.

Qi Yuan cleared his throat, glanced at the school leaders and classmates, and then slowly landed in the middle and rear right side of the auditorium—the direction of Tao Anran.

"Just now the students talked a lot about their lofty yet weird dreams."

He paused, and there were a few uncontrollable laughs from the audience.

"When the threshold of 'adulthood' has passed, we will be a complete 'person'. We should have ideals, ambitions, and pursuits. No matter how impractical it is to say it now, no one will laugh at you. But I want to say Yes, it's not 'lofty' at all, it looks more simple."

Qi Yuan's speech was not fast, and there was a little laughter in his words, neither deep nor heavy, and he reached an achievement of opposites with Sun Bufan who was crying in front of him.

"One day in the future, I want to walk hand in hand with my lover in the streets and alleys openly, without caring about the strange eyes of the people who eat melons; I want to have a steady stream of income, neither too much nor too little, enough to support my grandma. Take care of our little days; I want to be healthy and healthy, and strive to stay in the world for a few more days than the person I love..."

His next sentence has no beginning or end, but it accurately pokes at the hearts of many youthful and confused people, "All roads that go against the wind are worth being firm and brave."

The voice fell to the ground, and he bowed again, "Thank you."

The applause sounded, Qi Yuan got off the stage amidst the whistles of the boys, and walked towards the back row calmly.

In the first row of the auditorium, the principal said to the dean: "That's why puppy love should be guided in a timely manner instead of being suppressed by force. This will easily make children think that they are not accepted by society. Love is such a beautiful thing. When it comes to children , holding hands in a 'fair and fair' way has become a luxury dream. This is our mistake in education, Mr. Zhao. After the end, you will lead a work meeting. Let's discuss whether it is necessary to cooperate with parents in the future. Come to 'beat the mandarin ducks with sticks'," he sighed slowly, "Actually, after the two students who died in love in the seventh class last year, we should learn from it."

The dean of teaching frowned on his shiny forehead that "the local area surrounds the central government". He smacked for a moment, swallowed his long speech, and said, "Okay."

He has a problem with the current principal, but this "airborne soldier" with an antique appearance has a heart to keep up with the times, just like Yang Liang's incident. deal with.If he hadn't disclosed Yang Liang's personal problems to a few acquainted parents in private, and the parents jointly came forward, people like Yang Liang might have made some disgusting news.

The dean sighed secretly, feeling that there was a big mountain on his head, not to mention education work, it was difficult to carry out any work.

dream?Can that thing be eaten as a meal?

Qi Yuan, who returned to his seat with "Dream" in his mouth, enthusiastically sat down next to Tao Anran, and his heart rate, which had been calm for a long time, started to soar as if he had just woken up from a dream.

For a while, no one spoke.

Tao Anran touched his with the back of his hand, their palms tacitly found a suitable position, and they clasped their fingers together.

What is the "future" like, Qi Yuan clearly outlined the fuzzy picture in his mind in a few words.

The feeling of fullness in his heart made him raise the corner of his mouth, put his fingertips on the back of Qi Yuan's hand and scratch it.

Needless to say, he understands everything, Qi Yuan thought.

The coming-of-age ceremony is arranged in the morning, with a meal at noon, followed by the teachers' daily chanting of "this should be memorized and that should be memorized" in the afternoon.

Before the wings of longing for freedom had time to spread, they were slapped back by reality.

Before the evening self-study, Hu Qian turned around and asked a few people, "Are you going to lie down later?"

Without raising his head, Li Hao bit his pen and frowned at the equation, "Don't lie down, I will never have a relationship with a goddess in my life."

Zhang Tianqiao followed suit and raised his paw, "I can, I can still lie down!"

His tablemate raised his pimple-filled face and echoed, "I can do it too."

"Where are you two?" The fat man knocked on Qi Yuan's desk twice.

Qi Yuan raised his chin, that means, ask your tablemate.

Hu Pangpang swallowed his saliva, mustered up the courage to lean forward, "Master?"

Tao Anran stopped writing, thought for a while, and said, "I missed the second period of self-study, or it's too late to go back."

Hu Qian: "..."

Happiness came so suddenly that I almost missed it.

As a result, the minority obeyed the majority, and Li Hao's review plan, which was thinner than a piece of paper, was cut in half in public.

The six of them went to a nearby barbecue stand, ordered three bottles of beer at the risk of being hit by mixed doubles at home, and started to drink skewers happily.

Li Hao poured wine for everyone, feeling quite emotional, "I think we should have a drink to respect the youth who is about to go away."

Zhang Tianqiao murmured, "Except for Lao Zhao, which one of you is eighteen? Youth, the old man is still sparing no effort to torture us, it's too early to roll the ball."

Li Hao didn't think it was disobedient, "I mean, I've finished attending the coming-of-age ceremony."

Hu Qian came over to join in the fun, "That's right, come on, let's raise our glasses!"

Six glasses with dry watermarks came together, "Respect to the fucked-up youth!"

Tao Anran drank half a glass of cold beer with a smile, and quietly listened to his friends bragging and beating each other.In fact, it cannot be said that youth has passed away, but that the years of innocence have gradually faded away. In the future, they will carry more and more things on their shoulders, and their fresh faces will gradually fade under the scrutiny of time. .

Growth is a cruel subject, and those who study it thoroughly often suffer injuries.

"Let's also make an agreement," Li Hao said, "At any rate, today are all people who have received honorary certificates."

Hu Qian: "Ai Qing has an early play."

The glass in Li Hao's hand fell on the table at once, "Before the college entrance examination, I will not skip class or self-study. I will go to the library to make an appointment for a private room every week. Our group will supervise and communicate with each other. Whoever does not come will make a note for the other." In the future, after the exam, you will be punished together, how about it?"

Zhang Tianqiao frowned and scratched his head, "Is it so big?"

Li Hao: "That must be, they are all people who want to go on the single-plank bridge."

"I agree." Zhao Xiang raised the glass in his hand, and the person who was usually the least active became the first to respond.

Qi Yuan glanced at Li Hao, "Taozi and I are fine."

Li Hao forced Zhang Tianqiao and Hu Qian with his eyes again, they persisted for half a minute, lost the battle, and reluctantly agreed.

"Now that we've come to this point, then..." Zhao Xiang turned to Tao Anran, "It was all a misunderstanding before, and I offended him so much, I'll punish myself with a drink as an apology. How about we clear up the grievances in the future?"

"Of course." Tao Anran picked up the glass to touch him, and drank the remaining half of the glass.

The autumn night wind swept over, completely blowing away the remaining heat.

When the dead leaves gradually fell off, the third grade of high school also entered a period of real stress.Tao Anran is running out of time here, wishing that every second could be used in ten parts, even dozing off in class feels like a waste of time.

There are more and more knowledge points that can become "key points", and there are mountains in front of you, and it seems endless to memorize.

In the past, the monthly exam has now become a half-monthly exam. Individual students with unstable mentality feel the pain of ups and downs in it, which aggravates their worries about the future.

At the turn of autumn and winter, in the mathematics class of the second class of the third year of high school, one fell down in class, and was sent to the hospital for investigation.

The parents of the students came to the school to make a fuss and vent their breath. The school turned around and arranged a psychological counseling class. They babbled to the children for 10 minutes a week, which was really a "psychological comfort".

Tao Anran was tortured by the outside world and herself, she was good at being tall and thin at the same time, standing next to Qi Yuan, she was about the same height on one side, but she was still a little thinner than him, and she seemed to be malnourished temperament.

Qi Yuan saw it, and felt very worried. After searching on Baidu, he couldn't find any good prescription, so he went to the pharmacy to buy a bunch of vitamin fish oil, searched seven or eight kinds of soup recipes, and bought the ingredients , planning to raise her boyfriend in Yuanyuan.

On this day, Tao Anran was nestling in Qi Yuan's room drinking big bone soup while competing with geometry problems, when he heard hysterical crying outside the door, he took a spoonful of soup in his hand, and exchanged a glance with Qi Yuan next to him , and at the same time got up and ran out——

The author has something to say: Happy 520 everyone!Finally caught the last bus before 12:[-]

☆、Chapter 59

"Go to the opposite door and have a look. I'll sleep by myself after drinking." Grandma Qi sat on the bed and stretched out her hand to push Qi Yuan, "There was such a big commotion just now, and the police are here. No way."

Qi Yuan sat without moving, turned around and wrapped Mrs. Tang and stuffed it into the corner of the quilt, "Don't worry about it, there is Uncle Cao at the door."

Grandma Qi drank half a cup of hot milk, and put the cup on the low table at hand, "Neighbors need to help each other, you say this trouble, their family has to spend the whole night, and there is a half-sized one at the opposite door." What about little Maotou, do you want someone to take care of you?"

"Oh, my dear grandma, why are you so worried?" Qi Yuan got up and turned off the light, and took the milk cup, "When you fall asleep, I'll mind my own business, is that okay?"

"It's still like a human saying, go ahead, I have to writhe for a while before I can sleep." The old lady patted the buckwheat pillow and sighed softly, "It's hard for an old man to fall asleep, and I still feel less."

Qi Yuan closed the door, went to the kitchen to rinse a cup, then took the key and went out lightly.

More than an hour ago, several ladies with rather majestic backs knocked on the door, saying that Jiang Min was a slut with no conscience, and grabbed her by the hair to demand that she pay back the money, and beat up Cao Lantian as well.Tao Anran and Qi Yuan went up to fight, each suffered a few blows, not to the point of bruises and swollen faces, but they were hit hard enough, their skin and flesh hurt.

The later development of the matter was more mysterious. The beating ladies sat at the door of Cao’s house and began to cry, which alarmed half of the people in the unit door to come out to watch the excitement, and then a young resident called the police. So all the people were packed away.

Before going out, Qi Yuan sent Tao Anran a WeChat message, "Where is it?"

Tao Anran replied: "Downstairs."

Qi Yuan put on his coat and went downstairs, conveniently carrying a box of hot milk and a few small biscuits in his pocket.

Tao Anran was on the stone platform outside the building door, with a cigarette in his mouth, looking up at the starry sky at 45 degrees, his whole body was covered in a cloud of smoke.

"Crazy?" Qi Yuan went over and snatched the cigarette away, "Do you think you are a chimney?"

Tao Anran looked up at him without saying a word, his eyes were like a homeless stray dog.Qi Yuan lowered his head, and found that his originally thin jaw was now more sharply angled.Turning his head left and right to make sure there was no one there, Qi Yuan reached out and hooked his chin, kissed the corner of his lips, and licked it lightly with the tip of his tongue when they parted, tasting a very faint smell of iron rust.

"It's okay, it's past twelve o'clock." Tao Anran's voice was low and hoarse, and she opened her arms, "Hug me, I have a headache."

Qi Yuan sighed, threw the cigarette butt under his feet and crushed it, went over to put him in his arms, and stroked his back with the palm of his hand.

Tao Anran buried her face in his chest and rubbed it hard a few times, her skin was burning hot and painful, "You said she is such an adult, how can she do such a stupid thing and live without thinking about it every day?"

His face was pressed so tightly that Qi Yuan felt that he heard his voice from his chest.

Qi Yuan twisted his prickly hair, "What should I do now, go to the police station?"

"No," Tao Anran said in a muffled voice, "Cao Xiaofei is at home alone...I have to go to school tomorrow."

"What's the matter?" Qi Yuan breathed out like a bellows, "Would you like to tell me?"

Tao Anran pulled her face up and nodded, "Go to the playground?"

"Let's go." Qi Yuan pulled him up from the stone platform, held his hand, and didn't let go.

At night, the empty playground has a haunted atmosphere. The usual lighting lights are all extinguished, only a light bulb that is not much brighter than a lighter is left hanging upside down at the door.

But this kind of darkness, where it is impossible to tell whether it is a human or a dog three meters away, can bring a certain secret sense of security.

Tao Anran and Qi Yuan sat in the middle of the dark stands, leaning hand in hand, in a somewhat desolate state, just like a pair of little boys selling matches.

"Jiang Min invested most of their savings, as well as the ones given by my mother. At first, they should have made some money. Later, those people who pulled her into the group ran away. Those who followed Jiang Min to invest money could only I came to look for her, and now I have nothing to lose... Just now Uncle Cao said that she might have to bear part of the responsibility."

Tao Anran's voice was dry, "Before you went downstairs, Uncle Cao called me and asked if I could help raise the money."

The sudden change is like a boulder pressing on the young man's thin shoulders, the way of origin is unclear, and the way out is hopeless.

Qi Yuan held his hand and squeezed it, "I'll go to the bank tomorrow morning, you and..."

"No," Tao Anran raised her head and interrupted him, "No need."

Perhaps aware of the bluntness of the tone, Tao Anran breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is different from what happened to Ma Gan'er's mother. At that time, one side was living and the other was dying. I couldn't choose to die together."

Qi Yuan turned his head and could only catch a vague outline of him in the night, "Now one side is prison and the other is freedom. How big is the difference?"

Tao Anran was silent for a moment, and said: "It may not be possible to reach that step, just wait and see."

However, what he said lacked confidence, his voice was light and light, and he didn't know who he was speaking to.

That night, they sat on the playground for more than two hours absorbing the meager heat from each other, and were blown into two stiff bodies by the north wind in early winter. Unexcused absence.

Cao Xiaofei became a docile quail in the great panic. Cao Lantian didn't come home from morning to night. When he got home, he either hugged Erguotou or went into the house without saying a word and sighed. Tao Anran managed to hold on. There is a law on the surface, but I don't know when the string will break.

Jiang Min's role in the case was beyond everyone's expectations. She was tricked into joining the group by an acquaintance, and became a legal person with black and white printing on the white paper. The escape of others further pushed her into the abyss.

She became a veritable scapegoat, but in terms of objective facts, who can say that she is really innocent.

There was a hole in the sky above Cao's head, just like what Cao Lantian said, he is a teacher who has lived for more than [-] years in abiding by the law, timid, cowardly and incompetent, he doesn't know how to help The wife doesn't know how to speak to the child.

This heavy pressure was shifted to Tao Anran's shoulders invisibly.

Except for Cao Xiaofei's homework and three meals a day, Tao Anran took on most of the rest except what he could solve with his personal ability and IQ. He turned into a handful of pitiful ribs at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even Qi Yuan's force-feeding method couldn't make him gain half a catty.

Before the final exam, a wave of flu swept through No. [-] Middle School, and Tao Anran was unfortunately caught.

"Old Qi, Taozi...are you all right?"

Before school was over, Hu Qian and Li Hao came over and looked at Qi Yuan eagerly.

Qi Yuan paused as he cleared the table, "It's nothing, it's just a common flu."

"He usually can't get out of the line of fire with minor injuries." Hu Qian lay on the table and lowered his voice, "Just tell the truth, nothing happened to his family? Last time our group took tutoring on weekends, I heard..."

Qi Yuan raised his eyebrows, "I said it's fine, have you become addicted to the mama's set?"

"No, Brother Yuan, don't worry," Li Hao looked around, "I told you that if it's about money, I can help Tao Zi, really."

Qi Yuan folded the handout papers, sorted them into folders, and put them in his schoolbag properly, "Thank you brother, I really can't bear it, let me talk, let's go first."

He swung his schoolbag over his shoulder and strode away.

Li Hao and Hu Qian looked at each other in blank dismay, and for a moment they lost all their chattering skills, each having their own problems.

After a long time, Li Hao moved his mouth and said, "Well, Lao Hu, I think Tao Zi doesn't talk much, but she is actually very kind to us... It’s not a matter of morality, why do you feel that you are not a human being doing things?”

Hu Qian sighed, "It's not that bad."

Li Hao's face was full of worry, "What should I do then?"

Hu Qian thought for a while and said, "Two things. Don't do so badly in the final exam of the first semester, even if you are worthy of Tao Zi's precious time wasted with us on the weekend, and second... I think we can go to the supermarket to buy some chicken and fish for Lao Qi Take it."

Li Hao: "Why?"

Hu Qian sighed, "You idiot who doesn't pay attention to observing life."

Li Hao: "..."

Qi Yuan was on the way back with his bicycle turned into a Hot Wheels, when he received a call from the dealership. The other party quoted him a price, which was two or three thousand lower than the price he offered. He probably summed it up and agreed, and the other party I didn't expect him to be so forthright, I was very happy, and told him that I could pay the money the next morning, a total of [-].

After hanging up the phone, he stepped in the supermarket at the end of the hour, went in and quickly bought two bundles of vegetables and half a chicken, then stepped on the Hot Wheels and hurried back to the middle school.

When Qi Yuan knocked on the door, Tao Anran was crouching on the bed half dead, making a comprehensive essay paper.

Cao Xiaofei opened the door with his slippers on, saw that it was Qi Yuan, stood at attention for a moment, and only had to salute him.

Qi Yuan rubbed the top of the little fat man's head, stuffed a small bag of marshmallows into his hand, like teasing a puppy, "Eat it by yourself."

Cao Xiaofei ran into the house with the cotton candy in his arms, jumped onto the bed, and started chewing happily while watching a monster movie.

Ever since Tao Anran caught a cold, Cao Xiaofei moved to his father's room and shared a bed with Cao Lantian.And Cao Lantian has been going out early and coming back late recently, and Cao Xiaofei may not be able to come back when he falls asleep, so Cao Xiaopang suddenly became "the monkey called the king".

"Coming?" Tao Anran asked with a strong nasal voice.

Qi Yuan closed the door behind his back, "Well, bring you the paper."

Tao Anran put the mask on her face, pointed to the small round stool diagonally, "Put the test paper here, and sit there."

Qi Yuan put down the test paper, stared at the small round stool and laughed, "As soon as I came here, I was assigned a frontier assignment."

"I'm afraid I'll infect you." Tao Anran looked at him, "I'm so burned that I have double images when I see things. When you stand under the lamp, you feel like there are two of you."

"En." Qi Yuan responded in a low voice, and came over to try to put his hand on his forehead, it was hot.

"Hands are cold enough," Tao Anran took a big breath, "comfortable."

Qi Yuan sat down next to the bed, "Then I'll stick it up for a while? Here's another one."

Tao Anran grabbed him, "Don't, you go to the corner."

Qi Yuan didn't really want to squat in the corner, so he didn't move, and sat beside the bed like a beautiful sculpture.

Tao Anran didn't have the energy to send him away, so she had to shrink back a few inches, and covered the mask tightly again.

"Don't act like a woman from a good family meets a disciple, as if I'm going to kill you while you're weak." Qi Yuan lowered his eyes and smiled, "Speaking of which, my birthday is over, I'm eighteen. ,you……"

Speaking of this, Tao Anran felt guilty all over his body.

It was not a coincidence that around Qi Yuan's birthday coincided with Jiang Min's investigation, Cao's family was flying like dogs and dogs, his mind was full of those trivial things, and when he remembered it, it was already Qi Yuan's birthday.

Tao Anran thought afterwards that if there was a competition for the worst boyfriend, he would probably be able to win some kind of honor in it.

An impromptu cake and an impromptu scarf constituted the main props for the birthday celebration. If Grandma Qi hadn't prepared a table full of delicious dishes, the two of them would probably have to fill their stomachs with cakes.

"Are you still guilty?" Qi Yuan looked at his face and snapped his fingers in front of his eyes, "You're back to yourself, baby."

Under his clear gaze, Tao Anran suddenly became fragile, so weak that she was about to shed tears.

"Next year, on your birthday, give it to me." Qi Yuan brushed the corner of his eyes with his cool thumb, "I'll spend it with you, this year's doesn't count."

His voice floated over, successfully breaking the dam in Tao Anran's eye socket.

Qi Yuan couldn't tell what kind of feeling came to his heart at that moment, he half knelt on the edge of the bed, dragged the hot Tao Anran over, and let him cry from silent to loud.

How oppressive and painful he is, Qi Yuan can't feel it personally, but another kind of pain makes it difficult for him to breathe. Take over all the sufferings and replace them with your own body.

It's a pity that God didn't give humans this skill.

The final exam came as scheduled, and Tao Anran walked into the exam room with a cold tail. During the last foreign language test, she was coughing like hell, and ended the whole exam with the illusion that she was going to spit out her lungs.

After the exam, the boys did not usher in the winter vacation like in previous years, but directly entered the supplementary mode.

The headmaster decided that the holiday time of their No. 28 Middle School this year should be the same as that of No. [-] Middle School - fighting until the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month.

very cruel.

When the final grades came out, Tao Anran finally recovered from the cold that lasted for more than half a month, which gave him the strength to tear up the report card.

Tao Anran is still number one in his grade, but compared to himself, his score has dropped.When the difficulty of the two exams was about the same, his total score dropped by more than 40.

This gap was enough for him to pass by his first choice and fail the ranking perfectly.

After the last class in the afternoon, Tao Anran packed her schoolbag, turned her head and tapped on Qi Yuan's desk, "Skipping class? Go somewhere with me."

Qi Yuan glanced at him, packed his schoolbag without saying a word, "Let's go."

Taking advantage of Hu Qian and Li Hao's time to go to the bathroom, the two slipped through the back door one after the other.

Turning out of the school from a dead corner of surveillance, Qi Yuan dusted off the dust on his trouser legs, and asked Tao Anran, "Can you tell me what big business you are going to do?"

Tao Anran: "Go get the money and give it to Uncle Cao."

The author has something to say: I originally wanted to add more codes...but I am stuck, let's continue tomorrow

☆、Chapter 60

Tao Anran took [-] yuan and kept [-] yuan for college.He wrapped four bundles of RMB in the file bag, and Qi Yuan and the two came out of the self-service bank, and it was already dark.

At the gate of the bank, Tao Anran said to Qi Yuan: "How about...you go back first, I want to go to another place."

Qi Yuan smiled, "Hurry me up?"

"No," Tao Anran blushed, "I want to go to the cemetery."

He had misfortune the emergency money his father gave him, so he had to report to the police, otherwise his father would fall asleep in the middle of the night and beat him up.

"To see your father?" Qi Yuan said, "Then I'm a little nervous, after all, he is my father-in-law."

Tao Anran kicked him with a smile, "Get out, who is your father-in-law?"

Qi Yuan went to embrace him on the shoulder, "Go, hurry up before the last bus."

They said they wanted to take the bus, but the two finally took a taxi.After all, the cemetery is on the outskirts of the city, so it’s hard to tell if we can take a taxi on the return journey, so we have to leave some spare time for the last bus.

In the car, Qi Yuan squeezed Tao Anran's finger for a while, and played with it in his hand, only thinking that the driver uncle is an artificial intelligence.Of course, the master driver has been racing cars for many years, and he has never seen any kind of people, men, women, women... He has seen them all for a long time.

The driver copied all kinds of trails, successfully avoided the evening rush hour, and sent the two children to the cemetery in less than four or ten minutes.

When getting off the bus, the master who was over half a century old told the two of them, "Go back early after the worship, go down the mountain and walk 300 meters to the east to the station. The last shift is at [-] o'clock sharp, so don't be late."

The two took the change and thanked the uncle. The master drove the car out, looked at the two tall and thin figures in the rearview mirror, and sighed slowly.

Poor child.

The person involved, Tao Anran, didn't feel sorry for himself. He raised his head to look at the hill that was getting darker in the dark sky, and suddenly turned his head to ask Qi Yuan, "Are you afraid of A Piao?"

Qi Yuan: "What?"

Tao Anran: "Ghost."

It's hard to say what kind of materialistic spirit is supporting them when they enter the cemetery at night.

Qi Yuan was silent for a moment, and came to a conclusion, "My father-in-law should protect us both."

Then got punched again.

At the foot of the mountain, even the hawkers who sold yellow paper money had closed their stalls and returned home, let alone the flower sellers. The two of them searched around, but only found a piece of dry yellow dogtail grass.

"That's it," Tao Anran sighed, "My dad is not that particular."

After finishing speaking, he grabbed a few grasses and parted ways with Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan twirled the withered yellow grass, feeling that the father-in-law would not protect the two of them anymore.

Rabbits, it would be nice not to slap them to death.

The two of them went up the mountain holding the dogtail grass, as if they were holding a mysterious ceremony. With the tombstones everywhere, there was a sense of humor that couldn't be laughed out of the weirdness.

Tao Jianjun's cemetery is on the top of the mountain, with the best view and feng shui. It is said that he set it for himself when he made a fortune in his early years.Perhaps it was destined in the dark, if he didn't choose this treasure cave early in the morning, then the bleak situation when he closed his eyes, the mother and son might not be able to spare money to buy this three-acre land, then Comrade Tao Jianjun Maybe it’s still sitting on the altar at home until now.

The photo on the stele is quite young, and his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Tao Anran.

The person in the photo is smiling, watching his son put the dog's tail grass in front of his monument, looking like he has gently forgiven his unfilial son.

"Dad, I'm here to see you." Tao Anran found a small broom hidden behind the pine tree next to him, and cleaned up the fallen pine needles, pine cones and dead leaves around him, "This is my boyfriend... yes, I didn't listen to you, but I still plan to go this way to the end. His name is Qi Yuan, you guys should get to know him."

Qi Yuan held the rag and bowed, "Hello, Uncle Tao."

"He is good-looking and smart, hard-working and affectionate. I earned it, Dad." Tao Anran brushed off the thin ashes on the stele and stood up again. "I have almost finished disposing of the 'inheritance' you left me. It may not be what you like, but it was all used in the real business, not squandered. Aren't you afraid that I will become a hopeless dandy, looking at it now... there will be no chance from now on. "

"I'm about to take the college entrance examination, so I won't be able to go up the mountain for a while. This time, I came here empty-handed. You can scold me as much as you want. Anyway, I can't hear you. I will make it up for you next time. Burn the house and burn the beauties, so that you will not be lonely down there. "

After speaking, he bowed three times towards the cold stone tablet, and then reached out to touch the photo on the tablet, "See you next time, Dad."

With a sour smell in his nose, Tao Anran wiped the corners of his eyes, took Qi Yuan's hand, "Let's go."

When leaving, Qi Yuan's peripheral vision fell on the tombstone, and secretly gave Tao Jianjun a solemn promise.That sentence was very simple, but he couldn't say it in front of Tao Anran for a while, even if he said it, he would not be strong enough because he was too young, like a deceptive rhetoric.

The long time will always prove that those deep feelings that do not need to be declared, are tightly sewn into the bones and blood.

Following the route indicated by the driver, Tao Anran and Qi Yuan caught the last bus back to the city.

The empty bus, except for the two of them, is the driver who is too sleepy to keep his eyes open.

The two went straight to the back row, squeezed shoulder to shoulder and sat on the plastic chair in the cramped space, with their four long legs curled up in the pitiful gap, and their knees against the back of the front seat, feeling aggrieved that there was nowhere to arrange it.

"Do you know why I want to give Uncle Cao money?"

"All ears."

"Everything has an end. If I live in Cao's house is the beginning, then the 4 yuan is the end. No matter what reason they took over the obligation to support me, it has been given to me for more than a year. A place to stay. This matter is pending... I am not at ease, and now... I can finally breathe safely."

Tao Anran kept looking out of the window, but it was so dark outside that he couldn't see anything clearly, only the reflection of the two of them on the glass was very clear.Thinking of the past two months of ignorance, as if being weighed down by a boulder and making it hard to breathe, Tao Anran wanted to hang a sign on his neck saying "This person is an idiot".

In fact, it is so easy for people to think about it. Within a year and a half, his stable life broke down one after another, just like the big [-] that he rode before.
