Chapter 17 Gifts

The last semester of high school started, which happened to coincide with Western Valentine's Day.

At the same time, it is also Jiang Yu's birthday.

This was not a secret in No. [-] Middle School, so that as soon as Jiang Yu entered the classroom, he saw chocolates and small gifts on his desk, and several love letters stuffed in the belly of the desk.

He sighed, ready to tidy up briefly, Lai Xu saw this scene for the third year, and knew Jiang Yu's habits, so he turned around to help him tidy up, in order to get some benefits.

"I've seen this chocolate in the imported food section of the mall. It's two hundred and a box. Damn it, you really don't want to eat it?"

Jiang Yu said, "Don't eat."

"This chocolate biscuit, maybe they made it themselves, don't you really want it?"

"No."

"This love letter seems to be sprayed with some perfume, oh my god, why don't you take a look at it?"

"dont see."

Lai Xu "tsk tsk" twice, condemning Jiang Yu's arrogance, and his hands kept moving.He swept away the food on Jiang Yu's table like a gust of wind, and with Jiang Yu's consent, he placed some decorative gifts in the classroom. After a while, he helped clean up a clean table.

It's just that the love letter on the table is still a headache.If it was delivered directly to Jiang Yu, he said sorry and left, but these have already been stuffed to him, he can't open them one by one, and send them back one by one, if they just throw them in the school's trash can , it seems that it is not too appropriate.

He could only ask someone else to ask for a bag that was not picked out from the pile of gifts, put all the love letters into the bag, and planned to throw it to He Lin later, and let him solve it together.

Anyway, He Lin will always do this, it's just a matter of quantity.

So after school, when He Lin came in to look for him, he was greeted by an eye-catching flower paper bag. He Lin opened it and looked for it.

Since they got to know each other when they were young, He Lin clamored to celebrate Jiang Yu's birthday every Valentine's Day. His parents were happy to go to the world of two people, so they threw He Lin to Jiang Yu's disposal, and they didn't even have dinner. Do not stay.

So when he got home, Jiang Yu asked him, "Have you eaten on the first floor?"

He Lin gave a "hmm" and said, "Come up with me first, and I'll give you a gift."

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Okay."

He didn't change his shoes when he entered the door, he just waited at the porch, He Lin was barefoot, entered the room and came out quickly, with an extra bag in his hand.

Jiang Yu accepted it and looked at it. It was a shoe box, probably the same as before. It was a pair of shoes he had mentioned inadvertently when he was watching a dance video.He still remembered that the pair of shoes were not cheap. Later, He Lin told him that he and his parents begged for a long time before he was able to control the ownership of this year's New Year's money and bought this gift.

After all, it is a perfect adult gift, so it is okay to be more expensive.

"Thank you."

After thanking him, he raised his head again and kissed He Lin.

He Lin became shy for a moment, he pursed his lips and scratched his face, stretched out the other hand that had been behind his back, and handed the things in his hand to Jiang Yu.

"What is this?" Jiang Yu pretended to be ignorant and asked him in a daze.

"Valentines," he said.

Jiang Yu took it, and read it both front and back. It was an ordinary light blue envelope with no words written on it. The seal was also open, but it was quite thick.He was about to open it, but He Lin put his hand over the letter and stopped it.

"Let's go back and see."

Jiang Yu put it away according to his words, and joked in his mouth: "What? Are you embarrassed to let people read what you wrote?"

"Of course you are embarrassed to look in front of me." He Lin said the truth without changing his expression.

Jiang Yu said "OK" indifferently, opened the chain of the schoolbag, and carefully sandwiched the love letter between the two books.

After finishing the treatment, He Lin pulled him, tapped his lips with his index finger, and said, "The Valentine's Day gift said it also wants a thank you."

Just say what you want, and use the gift as an excuse.

Jiang Yu turned his face away, chuckled lightly, then leaned forward, and still gave him this thank you.

Although every time Jiang Yu said no cake was needed, Yu Ningyin ordered a ten-inch one, which was his favorite chestnut flavor.Dinner was specially reserved for Jiang Yu to come home from get out of class. Before the meal, he lit candles and made a wish. His birthday wish was always the purest and simplest one——hope that all the people he loves can be healthy, safe and happy.

His parents and Grandma Jiang each gave him birthday presents, and he thanked him and gave Yu Ningyin a hug.

The dishes are all common household meals. Jiang’s family doesn’t have any requirements to eat without talking, but usually Jiang Yu doesn’t like to talk about anything. Both Jiang Jingshuo and Yu Ningyin are talking about policy trends on the news, which is very boring. .

Now that there is an extra He Lin, the table becomes lively immediately.When Yu Ningyin asked him about his studies and about his daily life, he was not too impatient and answered every question.It's just that in the answer, he lied quietly.

That was his little secret with Jiang Yu.

Every year at this time, the news will repeat the trend of chocolate sales on Valentine's Day, patting the long queue of people in front of the chocolate shop.Yu Ningyin took advantage of the situation and asked him: "Does anyone in your school send chocolate love letters or something?"

He Lin replied: "Yes, not a lot."

"The school doesn't care about these?" Yu Ningyin asked again.Usually, if you ask Jiang Yu this kind of question, he will be perfunctory with one or two "um" in different tones, so she simply asked He Lin.

He Lin thought for a while, and replied, "Don't worry, I haven't seen the school manage it."

"That's it." Yu Ningyin nodded, looked at He Lin for a moment, and when she spoke again, she turned into a teasing smile, "Is there a little girl who handed you a love letter?"

Not only girls, but boys too.

Jiang Yu slandered when he heard the words.

He raised his head from the bowl, glanced to the side, and met He Lin's gaze.

Yu Ningyin looked at Jiang Yu, then at He Lin, her gaze swiveled back and forth between the two, she suddenly smiled, and said, "Your faces are so red, it looks like you have them all."

The two looked at each other again, taking in the redness on each other's faces. As for the reason, one was because of the love letter received from the young man, and the other was because of the love letter handed to the young man.

"Mom!" Jiang Yu couldn't help shouting out of embarrassment, why didn't he realize that his mother was such a gossip before.

Yu Ningyin waved her hands, and stopped teasing them: "Okay, okay, I won't talk about it if I don't want to, but I have to remind you, just don't affect the exam."

The two were noncommittal.

It was quite late after the meal, Yu Ningyin and Jiang Jingshuo stayed on the first floor to clean up, and let He Lin and Jiang Yu go upstairs to review first.Before the second floor left, He Lin stretched out his finger to Jiang Yu's schoolbag, tapped twice, and said softly, "Don't forget to go home and read."

Jiang Yu replied to him: "Go back and read."

In fact, even if they don't tear it apart, Jiang Yu still knows what is written in this love letter.

In the ten years before he received this love letter for the first time, he never knew that He Lin was also... a person who could be called delicate.Many small things that he only had vague impressions and completely forgotten, this person can remember so clearly their childhood and school days.

He doesn't have any photographic memory skills, and he can remember the content of this love letter purely because he took it out and read it almost every day after receiving it.After memorizing English words for so long, I still haven't been able to increase my vocabulary much. On the contrary, the Ebbinghaus method of memory has been effectively used in memorizing the content of love letters.

Even after he went to work, he didn't leave the love letters he received at home, but took them to a new city.Of course, one is that he is afraid of being discovered by his parents, and the other is that he is even more reluctant to discard it.

He turned on the light, took out the light blue envelope that was completely sandwiched in the book, and took out three stacks of letter paper.

Five sheets of paper were written with fairly neat characters, probably because there was no pause in writing, some of the ink accumulated at the tip of the pen was wiped out with a straight mark before it dried.

It was as if I had returned to myself when I opened this stack of paper for the first time.In the silence, the sound of the heartbeat was adjusted to the full bar, and even the fingertips were trembling when the letter was just unfolded.

He never knew that he would have such uncontrollable expectations for a gift.

I never knew that I would savor a love letter word by word——
