Chapter 62: Four words, two people

It was almost Christmas when I returned to the class.
Nothing happened in the Christmas class this year. At this time last year, we were still preparing for the New Year’s Day party with great interest. We were filled with outrage because Class Nine learned that we had a fancy dress party. I still remember that Xu Yanliang appeared at the party wearing a mask of Zhu Bajie, but β asked him calmly: "Xu Yanliang, why are you not abiding by the rules, what about your mask?"
Now I think about it like a lifetime.
When he saw me entering the door, Yu Huai suddenly stood up.
"No...don't be so grand." I took a step back.
"I just want to pee." Yu Huai said blushing.
"I haven't seen you in two weeks, your words are getting more and more rough." I nodded.
Yu Huai suddenly laughed, and so did I.
As if in this laughter, the discords of two weeks ago disappeared.
β once said that the outcome of a dispute is not an apology from one party, but a temper of both parties.
It seems that our dispute has ended.

When I was away, the results of Yu Huai's competition came out. He won the second prize, and several universities that were as "not bad" as last year once again threw an olive branch. Yu Huai hesitated slightly, then refused.
This was in my expectation.
He has recovered well. I can see that, unlike the strong optimism he made two weeks ago, he seems to have really accepted the result.
I didn't help, but it doesn't matter anymore.
The final exam is coming soon. The end of the semester is nothing for us, but for those students who apply for admissions from major universities and self-enrollment bonus points, the school recommended places are limited after all, and the school selection still has to fight for the total results of the previous major exams.
As soon as the language test was over, we heard several explosions in the test room.
Ling Xiangqian was arrested by the dean on suspicion of cheating.
However, Lin Yang and Yu Zhouzhou abandoned the exam midway, for unknown reasons.
When Yu Huai and I had dinner together at noon, he kept calling Lin Yang.
"how about it?"
"Always shut down. I don't know why."
Although Lin Yang won the first prize in the two subject competitions, if he abandons the exam this time, the total score of the selection will be several hundred points lower than that of others. No matter how good he usually does, he can't make up for it. Both Yu Huai and I were anxious, and we had a very unpleasant meal.
After the math test in the afternoon, even if today’s test is over, everyone packs up their schoolbags and goes out. There is one day tomorrow, and we will have a short winter vacation.
I walked out side by side with Yu Huai, and he called Lin Yang again, which was connected this time.
Ling Xiangqian was framed for cheating. As for who played the black hand, Lin Yang didn't say, but after all, he was disqualified from the exam because he got the money on the spot.
As for Lin Yang and Yu Zhouzhou, they abandoned the exam to find Ling Xiangqian who had left.
I completely stuttered: "Just because, because, for this precious date, did he, he, him, he abandoned the exam?"
"What date?" Yu Huai snapped my forehead. "How passionate and enough friends are you, why do you think so dirty!"
Fart, friendship is not so powerful! It's just for picking up girls! Have you never seen Lin Yang doing too many abnormal things in order to chase Yu Zhouzhou, follow up! Follow, follow every day!
I stuck up my mouth and didn't say anything, and suddenly saw Yu Huai feeling relieved.
"what happened to you?"
"It's nothing," Yu Huai looked out the window, thoughtfully, "You said, he can just let go of such a big thing. I'm still entangled in a fart, where am I worse than him, right? "
I blinked and slowly understood.
Is this hurdle of Yu Huai finally over?
I laughed: "Come on, you can't take it even if you look at him, right?"
"Go away," he laughed angrily at me, "What a wicked woman!"
We are preparing to say goodbye at the school gate. It was only five o'clock, and it was already dark. He smiled and waved his hand at me under the street lamp, turned and left.
"Hey, Yu Huai!" I called him.
He turned his head and looked at me puzzled.
"I'm sorry." I said.
Yu Huai's face twitched.
"Listen to me. In fact, before, I could see that you were working hard to adjust yourself, but I was still crying and crying every day. I hope you can come and talk to me... I think I'm pretty boring, you The words that yelled at me were correct. I also wanted to say'I'm sorry'."
He smiled and didn't care.
"Come on, you, this can only explain two things. First, my acting skills are poor; second, a big man can't take any trouble for this. It's really shameful, and even more angry at you. Shame. Don't mention it, go home."
The Yu Huai I know has officially returned, and he is still the same boy back then.
"How old are you, just say you are a big man." I laughed.
"Oh," Yu Huai patted his forehead, "Forget that you are a tiger, you are the predecessor, I am the old man, and you are the old lady."
"You are the old lady!" I threw the empty coffee can in my hand towards his forehead, and he caught it with a hahaha smile.

In April, spring in the north is coming late.
Even though I have long been accustomed to the change of the seasons, the vernal equinox and valley rain, everything has its own time, and it is not the first time I have seen it, but every year and every season, there is still a moment that surprises me.
For example, after a night of warm rain, I walked out the door ignorantly in the morning. The wind seemed to be particularly soft, and I ignored it; if it kept up, I became insensitive; finally it sent the branches of the weeping willow by the roadside to me, a touch of just budding, The intoxicating green, ignorantly broke into my field of vision, and gently brushed my cheek.
My gaze followed it away, and then I saw large swaths of fresh green, greeted and swayed along the direction of this street.
The world suddenly turned into color.
Those turmoil also rumbling away with the winter.
After the written test of recommended students and independent enrollment, the second round of interviews in major universities also came to an end before the Spring Festival.
My trip to Beijing became a waste trip. Maybe I don't have the potential to learn art, and I'm destined to miss TV and movies. Every school ranks very low and basically nothing. I feel very sorry for my parents, although they still said it was expected and it didn't matter, I felt more and more ashamed of myself.
Sometimes when I fall asleep in class, my eyes become a little confused when I get up. In those few seconds of trance, I would suddenly think of Cheng Qiaozhen and the brick house that leaked everywhere. This made me suddenly clear in the warm classroom, like the wind that day was blowing all the way from Beijing. Dispelled the mist in front of me.
Achievements rose in the stumbling block. After the self-study every night, Yu Huai would sneak with me to the top floor of the administrative area quietly, because it is convenient for talking and will not disturb other students who are going to self-study. Every day, I sorted out the wrong questions that day, and Yu Huai patiently explained them to me one by one. Under my persecution, he also had to start to recite classical Chinese texts and ancient poems. Perhaps there was no more competition to protect the body, and he also learned to constrain.
When I was suffering in the black winter, the days always passed very slowly, but once I worked hard and got better, time went fast, as if I was afraid that if I gave me a little more time, I would become too much. Excellent, as if accidentally scared God.
However, what is strange is that every time I think of those years later, I always feel that time is so slow and gentle.
I can clearly recall which questions he said every night, which words he scolded me, which ancient poems I tested on him, and what virtue he memorized.
If I have to say that I have wasted two years on Yu Huai by insisting on my scalp and theory, then he has wasted a lot of his precious review time on me.
We never asked each other for this.

The first mock test I took was very bad, but the second time I got a lot better, with a full score of 750, I barely got 600 points. Last year, the score of a book was 582 points. Looking at this score, I almost cried with excitement.
Yu Huai, Han Xu, Zhu Yao and Bei Lin are still the vanguards of our class. Zhu Yao is the most stable and will always be fourth. Bei Lin is slightly less stable, but most of them are first. In the remaining two positions, Han Xu and Yu Huai take turns.
I quietly ran to talk to Zhang Ping. On the surface, it was an analysis of my mock test results, but in fact there were other pictures.
"Ms. Zhang, I have been under a lot of pressure recently. I have worked hard." I flattered.
"It's okay," Zhang Ping sighed, "just save me a little heart."
I know that because of the autonomous enrollment quotas of several universities such as Zhejiang University and Tongji, Zhang Ping was forced by various parents with various money and power to use both soft and hard, and for a period of time, he was about to lose his nerves.
"Don't worry, although I can't count on it anymore, our class will definitely have several talented students from Peking University and Tsinghua University. We will definitely give you a face!"
"Peking University, Tsinghua University, who?"
"Yu Huai," I blurted out, "He must be fine, is this result fine? Isn't it..."
I saw Zhang Ping staring at me with a smirk.
"If I remember correctly, it seems that when we first entered the final exam, you came around a corner to ask me for the top school year, right?"
"Yes, yes, it's me, what's the matter?" I felt a little guilty.
"It's okay. At that time, I felt that we were still caring about the overall situation. I didn't expect that we still care about our classmates." Zhang Ping smiled, "It's good, it's good. Keep it. There are many schools around Peking University and Tsinghua University. Work hard, you get better than they all give me a face."
"Ah, really? Why?"
"Being a teacher is the same as being a doctor. They belong to the healthy type since childhood. Longevity is also due to me. It has nothing to do with me."
Zhang Ping picked up the thermos and poured hot water into the canned yellow peach.
"But there are still some classmates, like brain cancer patients, who have recovered in my hospital and have lived to be ninety-nine. Do you think they give me a face?"
......Who do you mean with brain cancer?
In Zhang Ping's mixed laughter with encouragement and promotion, I ran away.

On a Saturday at the end of April, I suddenly received a call from Yu Huai, asking me to come to school.
I followed the instructions on his phone to the grove behind the gymnasium. This place is relatively high, forming a small mound. The former seniors gave it a name, called Late Autumn Highland.
When I walked to the edge of the woods, I raised my head. The noon sun was just opposite to me. I was so swayed that I couldn’t open my eyes. I only saw Yu Huai standing against the light on the mound, not knowing what he was holding. ,strange.
"What the is doing mysteriously," I complained, "I'm carrying a creature, and the rhythm has been disrupted by you!"
He seemed to laugh out loud, very proud.
"Today is Arbor Day." He said.
"Arbor Day, your uncle, Arbor Day is March 12, and it is now the end of April."
"Can we celebrate the Arbor Day on the lunar calendar?"
"Your family's lunar calendar is more than a month away!" I squinted and said, this mental illness.
Suddenly I felt something was wrong. Something seemed to flash in my mind, but I didn't catch it.
I walked towards him, walked a few steps, and froze again.
In his left hand, he was holding a small sapling.
No.303
"I went out to buy a pen and saw that my residential property was doing greening. I didn't know why I suddenly remembered that you said you wanted to plant a tree. Their workers secretly sold me a sapling, such a broken thing. It’s 120 yuan. Fortunately, I’m rich in my wealth. Otherwise, I won’t be a hero. You don’t know. It took my milk to get this sapling over... Why are you crying?"
"You are sick," I wiped my eyes, not daring to look at him, "It's almost summer, what tree to plant!"
"You told me it was still autumn when you wanted to plant a tree."
"That was two years ago!"
"Little master has a good memory, can't you?!"
I don't have the feeling of wanting to cry. Really, who knows why the tears keep pouring out, like no money.
"Can you cry later? The real estate worker said that you have to plant it before you can water it."
I walked over, let my eyes red like a rabbit, picked up the shovel with him, found a little more empty place, and started digging.
After the tree was put down and filled with soil, we set up three equilateral triangle sticks beside the tree, and Yu Huai used ropes taken from the class to tie them to the tree.
I squatted by the tree hole and watched him pour the water in the bucket little by little.
"What kind of tree is this?" I asked him.
"I don't know." He said grinning.
I sighed dully.
Water seeped into the ground, and the moist skin was glowing with black oil. Yu Huai dropped the bucket, clapped his hands, and said, "Let's go."
"This is over?"
"What do you want to do? Or should I dig another hole and bury you in it?" He turned his head and asked.
"This is the tree you planted. You have to make a mark anyway!" I was anxious. "The tree that the young master planted is also behind the famous family!"
"Come on, you," Yu Huai said indifferently. "It doesn't matter whether you can live or not. If you are so sad when you die, you might as well just leave it alone. You will come back a few years later and choose whatever you want. The one that grows the most vigorously, consider it as the two of us planted, how great!"
"Will you have children in the future and run casually on the street? Eighteen years later, pick one of the most handsome candidates from the college entrance examination champions of the year and point out that this is your son and let someone provide you with care for you?!"
"Good idea!" Yu Huai laughed.
He didn't care about going down the mountain. I thought about it, and took out the knife that I usually used to sharpen the 2B pencil from my schoolbag, and engraved it stroke by stroke on the trunk that was at most three fingers wide.
If this tree dies in the future, it is 100% my responsibility.
But I still bit my lip and carved four words it.
"Are you going?" Yu Huai shouted at me under the high ground with a loud voice.
"Coming soon!"
I put away the knife, ran two steps, and then turned back.
The tree looked pitifully immature against the surrounding trees.
But it will definitely survive and grow up, and it will wait until some younger brother and younger sister come to enjoy the shade under its tree, like the words I saw Luo Zhi, I saw these four words carved by me .
Four words, two people.
Geng Geng Yu Huai.
