First dawn

"Dad's leg, let's leave it at that." The boss of the Qiao family changed his argument that he argued for Qiao Zeyan to undergo surgery half a month ago, and finalized Qiao Zeyan's ending, "The doctor also said that the operating bed may not even come down. come."

"Yes, yes." The youngest son of the Qiao family echoed, "Don't listen to Qiao Xiaomei's ability, she will take care of the operation."

Xu Hong remained silent, watching the two people in front of him sing and make a decision for Qiao Zeyan. The two people who were separated many years ago and had to use a knife, reached a rare agreement at this moment, but their tone was cold, as if they were weighing a death. things, not living beings.

Qiao Zeyan is more than 80 years old, and the broken bone cannot be healed, which means that he can only stay in bed. Once the old man is bedridden, the outcome is self-evident.

Qiao Jue sighed secretly, he didn't grow up beside Qiao Zeyan, he didn't like Qiao Zeyan, and Qiao Zeyan didn't like him either, but that didn't mean he was willing to see a person who was related to him lying on a hospital bed, surrounded by a room full of people. In the rotten atmosphere, he grows old and loses vitality day by day.

However, the world is like this, and no one can fight against it.It's just that Qiao Zeyan favored the eldest son and the youngest son all his life, but the two parted ways after the separation and conflict, and left the old man to Qiao Heng, who had a difficult family life.These two people are no longer willing to just take care of them in shifts. I don't know how Qiao Zeyan should feel when he sees the truth here.

It's just that even he himself couldn't escape the giant net that bound his body.

Lianxing planned to go to the south of the Yangtze River. By the Lianhe River at the end of March, the willows around the bank were slightly green, and the light greenness was lingering on the branches. The clothes of pedestrians were getting thinner, and the air was filled with warmth.

In the early morning, beside the bus station in the north of the bridge, there was a row of small stalls selling breakfast. Qiao Jue put the documents in his hand on the simple outdoor dining table.

"Little handsome guy, what are you eating today?" The aunt at the stall often saw Qiao Jue, and her tone was familiar.

Qiao Jue flipped through the lecture notes to be used today, and replied, "It's better to use rice dumplings and soy milk, thank you, auntie."

With a soft sound, a familiar thermos cup appeared in the field of vision.

Qiao Jue raised his head upon hearing the sound, and the morning sun passed over Yi Xiao's shoulder and fell on the writing in his hand.

"Auntie, I want the same one as his." Yi Xiao sat down opposite Qiao Jue.

"It's about 8 o'clock, so you came so early?" Qiao Jue was a little surprised. Today is the day when the second group will go to the city to compete. Sui was half an hour earlier, but she didn't expect Yi Xiao to think exactly the same as herself.

"I want to eat with you." Yi Xiao took her own soy milk from her aunt, looked at the young man in the morning sun, and couldn't help saying, "Well, Xiao Qiao, you are so pretty."

Qiao Jue almost sprayed the soy milk in Yi Xiao's face, but the other party laughed heartily.

The city seems to have not yet woken up, and scattered passers-by are also in a hurry, only the two of them, sitting quietly in the mild spring wind, not far away is the Lian River flowing calmly, and the sun is covering the sky above their heads. sky.

The vegetation is revived, swallows are coming to welcome, everything, no matter old or new, is taking root and sprouting silently.

"Look at the red dragonfly flying in the blue sky, Yuyou is constantly chasing his dream in the wind, the sky is his eternal home, and the earth is his kingdom... Hi!" Mu Qingwei walked from the other end of the bridge humming all the way Come, saw Qiao Jue and Yi Xiao next to the breakfast booth, Mu Qingwei took three steps and two steps together, "Are you two kindergarten children, and you have to have breakfast together."

"Yeah, we have to go to the toilet together hand in hand." Yi Xiao took over the conversation.

Qiao Jue rolled his eyes in his heart: "Go up and show me."

Not long after, a motorcycle whizzed by, Guo Da turned over and jumped off the back seat of the motorcycle, and Jiang Wenyan also parked the bicycle beside the bus stop.

"Is Baoyou here?" Yi Xiao asked.

"Shout out from the group." Guo Da picked it up in his hand.

"I'm coming... I'm coming!" A panting person came out of the alley on the side of the road and ran towards the direction of the people, "Didn't it say 8 o'clock, why are you all so early... Hey, mom !"

Qiao Jue turned around in a daze, and found that Bao You called the aunt who sold breakfast.

Baoyou's mother's face was full of smiles: "So you are Baoyou's classmates, Baoyou often mentions you, so come back and eat as you please!"

Several people thanked Bao You's mother one after another, and boarded the bus that had just entered the station.

"Let's go!" Guo Da excitedly said, "Friends, team members, comrades, please remember, our slogan is!"

"No tooth decay!" Mu Qingwei and Jiang Wenyan said in unison, and then laughed out loud.

"Not this!" Guo Da said angrily.

Frolicking all the way, even the long drive became short.

In the lecture hall of No. 20 Middle School, it was full of people. Qiao Jue didn't know if it was his own illusion. When several people walked in, there seemed to be a moment of silence in the hall, and then it became even more noisy.More than [-] excellent works from the whole province are concentrated here, plus the students from the No. [-] Middle School who came to watch the game, indeed many people came.

"Damn it, buddy, don't worry about it." Guo Da looked at Bao You, whose legs were visibly shaking, showing a speechless expression, "It won't be you later, what are you nervous about?" .”

"There are still seats in the back row, let's go there." Qiao Jue looked around, pointing to the empty seat in the last row.

Yi Xiao nodded, and they walked to the last row of the multimedia classroom to sit down.

"Brother Sui and Brother Xiao, I always feel that a lot of people are watching you." Mu Qingwei said, "Since I came in just now, someone has been staring at you two and whispering."

"Hahaha that's it." Guo Da proudly said, "These two are the faces of our group, and they are responsible for their appearance. Believe it or not, after the competition is over today, photos of Qiao Jue and Yi Xiao will be posted on the No. [-] Middle School's post bar."

"I... also... feel..." Bao You was still nervous.

"Little brother, don't be nervous." Guo Da grabbed Bao You's shoulders, "Your brother Da, I have been with Brother Sui for so many years. I haven't seen any scenes. Let me tell you, when he was in junior high school, he applied for a sports meeting. High jump, after the sports meet..."

"Shut up." There was a commotion in the hall, Qiao Jue glanced at Guo Da, and Guo Da obediently shut up.Qiao Jue looked around. For some reason, he always felt that in this multimedia hall, apart from the curious and probing eyes of some people, there were also some unfriendly eyes. The hostility and rejection of these people seemed to be Yi Xiao who was facing him.

Finally, looking around, Qiao Jue found a familiar figure in the front row of the multimedia classroom——

Yi Xiao's half-brother, Chen Zining.

Sure enough, it just verified his guess, this is Yi Xiao's high school before transferring.

This cultural innovation project competition mainly adopts the form of optional questions. In the final, members of each group will demonstrate the content of the project, and then answer questions from teachers and students in the audience.

The sign holder was sent to Yi Xiao by the student who acted as a staff member. The girl obviously knew Yi Xiao and was obviously afraid of him. She lowered her head and did not dare to look directly into Yi Xiao's eyes. They sat in the back row and when the sign holder came over , and there was only the last one left, Yi Xiao snorted, without saying much, directly picked up the last digital sign in the sign holder, and put it in Qiao Jue's open palm.

"We are number 23, thank you." Qiao Jue laid the unfolded lottery flat, and politely reported the serial number to the staff.

The girl blushed, thanked her, took the serial number list, and walked quickly to the front row, always feeling a very unfriendly gaze on her back.

The 23rd is the last number. For the evaluation, it is not a favorable order of playing, but it is not harmful. Qiao Jue held the unfolded lottery paper, thoughtful, and before he finished thinking, Yi Xiao stepped on him .

Qiao Sui: "???"

Yi Xiao: "Xiao Qiao, you already guessed it."

"Guess what?" Qiao Jue moved his foot back, but Yi Xiao stepped on it again, "Guess that you were originally a student of Shi No. [-] Middle School?"

Yi Xiao nodded, and spoke righteously: "Then why were you laughing with that girl just now?"

"Can't you laugh?" Qiao Jue was confused.

The other four pricked up their ears.

"Impossible." Yi Xiao said persuasively, "Think about it, your good friend, I, Yi Xiao, left this school because of the bullying on campus, so they all bullied me, so you can't be too friendly to them. "

Mu Qingwei: "..." Damn.

Jiang Wenyan: "..." It's fake.

Bao You: "..." dare not speak.

Guo Da: "..." Shameless.

Qiao Jue dared to speak: "...No, brother, you said that you are 1.8 meters tall, have practiced taekwondo, and a man who won't stop fighting without blood. Your words are not convincing at all. You have no point in your heart." ?"

Qiao Jue's heart was turbulent.

It is obvious that you are bullying others, but you look at how many people are in this room, and the moment they see you, their faces are terrified.

But right now, Yi Xiao is really thinking about this matter very seriously. The most important thing is that it is indeed Yi Xiao who has been wronged in the matter of Chen Zining.

"Okay." Qiao Jue reluctantly compromised.

Guo Da executed it immediately, changed his previous friendly gaze, and glared at his buddy on the left.

Satisfied, Yi Xiao leaned on the back of the seat and looked at Chen Zining in the front row with the eyes of insects. If Chen Zining knew it, she shrank her neck.

The topics from each county have their own characteristics. The content of these selected people for the finals is very good, but the quality of the speakers is uneven. One student almost cried on the stage nervously. I have to say, Yi Xiao's brother Chen Zining was generous in his speech without any stage fright. When the applause came at the end, he even had time to goug out Yi Xiao who was in the back row with his eyes.

"Number 23!" The judges and teachers went through a series of bombardment of middle school students' cultural topics. The voices of the callers were obviously exhausted. With their minds on their minds and their own goals, they waited for the work of the last participating group.
