Back to My Dad’s High School Days

Chapter 88: The last drop!

Views:

"Why hasn't the snow stopped yet?"

Qin Shifu propped his chin up, pouted, took a pen, and looked out the window sadly.

Ever since Qin Chu promised him to go to the Nanshan Cemetery after the snow stopped, the heavy snow in Hangzhou has been falling non-stop. Occasionally broke once or twice in the middle, but the back is bigger. There is a lot of snow on the road, and if you step on it, half of your shoes will be buried.

Aunt Wang found two temporary babysitters to clean up the snow in the garden, Qin Shiwu wisely did not go down to play with the snow.

Lu Tong didn't like to let him play this, he knew it in his heart.

After another day, the snow finally stopped.

Although the weather outside was gloomy and not yet clear, it was finally enough to travel.

Qin Shiwu's bones were about to fall apart when he was sitting at home. Hearing that Xue stopped, he immediately found Lu Tong.

Lu Tong is knitting sweaters in the living room. One of his recent hobbies is checking how Qin Shifu's homework is done, and the other is knitting sweaters.

When Qin Shifu jumped to the living room with one step and three jumps, Lu Tong stretched out his hand to greet him.

"The snow has stopped today, can you take me to Nanshan Cemetery?"

Lu Tong pressed him on the sofa, Qin Shiwu felt that something was trapping his head.

Aunt Wang smiled and took a mirror, Qin Shishi looked at it and found that he was wearing a black woolen hat on his head.

"what?"

Qin Shifu's curly hair was pressed down by the hat.

He looked at Lu Tong: "Have you been weaving this these days?"

Lu Tong: "How is it?"

Qin Shiwu couldn't put it down: "It looks pretty cool!"

He took off his hat and put it on again seriously: "How did you think of making this for me?"

Lu Tong: "Don't you want what you want?"

He touched Qin Shifu's clothes, fearing that he would play thin in the cold weather, but the other party was a little self-aware, and the clothes felt thicker.

"When will Dad come back?" Qin Shiwu jumped off the sofa.

Lu Tong: "I'll be back when I'm done."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Chu arrived home.

Qin Shifu hurriedly ran from the living room to the entrance, and as soon as the door opened, Qin Shiwu jumped on top of him.

"Take me out!"

Qin Chu was hit by him and tore his son off his body: "Aren't you cold?"

Lu Tong stepped forward and took off Qin Chu's coat.

His windbreaker was all covered with snow, and now some of it was on Qin Shiwu's body.

Lu Tong was so worried, he patted off all the snow on one big and one small.

Qin Chu asked, "what do you want for your birthday?"

Qin Shifu was stunned for a moment.

"Am I going to have a birthday?"

He hasn't had his birthday in two years.

After traveling back, Qin Shiwu celebrated the birthday of that "Qin Shiwu", and almost forgot his own birthday.

Qin Chu pinched his face: "No unreasonable demands are allowed, anything else is fine."

Qin Shiwu grew up, Yilai stretched out his hand to eat and opened his mouth, but he really had no material needs: "I haven't thought about it for now, I'll tell you when I think about it."

Qin Chu changed into a set of clothes, and the driver Lao Yang drove the car out of the garage.

Lu Tong put on a coat for Qin Shiwu with a lot of thought, Qin Shiwu opened his hands, Lu Tong put it on for him, and he muttered: "If you want to see him, do you want to bring some flowers, I see others. It's all like that."

"You can bring whatever you want." Lu Tong buttoned the last button of his jacket: "Let's go."

On the way to Nanshan Cemetery, I passed a flower shop.

Lao Yang stopped the car, Qin Shiwu wandered around for a long time, picked a bunch of his favorite, and muttered in his heart: Anyway, it was for me, so I didn’t pay much attention.

After choosing flowers, they got into the car. After half an hour, the three arrived at the gate of Nanshan Cemetery.

Qin Shiwu was a little nervous. He looked up and saw that the tombstones were densely packed, going up layer by layer, like a staircase.

Qin Chu patted his shoulder: "Let's go."

The tombstone of the "Qin Fifteen" is on the fifth floor. After several months, Qin Fifteen saw that familiar face again, and his body froze.

Not long ago, this face was still vividly reflected in front of everyone, but it was only time for him to sleep. In a blink of an eye, sixteen years have passed.

Qin Shifu placed the flower in front of the tombstone, and said in his heart: I have died for you once.

As soon as he put down the flowers, a soft-spoken female voice came from behind: "Are you Lu Tong?"

Qin Shiwu thought to himself: No, you can meet fans when you come to Nanshan Cemetery

With such a heavy snow, fewer people would go to the grave.

It can be seen that Lu Tong has really many fans.

Qin Shiwu looked back, and the woman in white clothes in front of him looked a little familiar. You can't tell the age, but if you only look at one face, it looks like he is in his twenties, with a ponytail, very white skin, and a thin voice.

Lu Tong paused.

The woman smiled, and she smiled very delicately. She held flowers in her hand and seemed to be visiting her old friend.

"You may have forgotten me," the woman said.

Qin Chu frowned, as if recalling, he said somewhat uncertainly, "Lin Xiaomian?"

Lin Xiaomian put the flower in front of the tombstone: "It's me, I haven't seen you for many years, it's hard for you to remember."

Qin Shifu took a step back: =mouth=!

I rely on!

I rely on rely on!

Lin Xiaomian turned her head and saw Qin Shiwu.

Qin Shiwu's retreat was even worse, almost retreating into Lu Tong's arms.

Until now, he has a sense of time-travel.

Yes, the little girl who used to hide behind her has grown into an adult on her own. On the other hand, she is still a little kid.

Lu Tong ran into an old friend and introduced: "This is my son, Qin Shu."

Lin Xiaomian: "Hello."

Qin Shifu was extremely awkward: "...Hello."

He thought to himself: If my mother asked me to call her Auntie later, I would just jump off the Nanshan Cemetery and die.

Luckily, Lu Tong didn't let Qin Shiwu call Lin Xiaomian an aunt.

Lu Tong asked him, "You also came to see him?"

Lin Xiaomian: "I happened to be free today, and I came here after passing the Nanshan Cemetery. I think there is such a heavy snow in the world, his tombstone must be covered by snow, so I want to clean it up."

Lu Tong: "We just came here too."

Lin Xiaomian nodded. She looks similar to her more than ten years ago. The only change that the years have left on her is to make her look more mature.

Her words are still very few. Once the sentences are long, it is easy to stutter, so she simply doesn't say anything.

After reading "Qin Fifteen", Lin Xiaomian said, "I'll go see Teacher Zhao again."

Qin Shifu said in surprise, "Mr. Zhao?"

Lin Xiaomian glanced at him.

Qin Chu: "My class teacher in high school."

Of course Qin Shiwu knew that Mr. Zhao, Lao Zhao, was Zhao Yan. Rounding up, he could be considered as his high school head teacher!

Qin Shifu: "Old Zhao... I mean, is that Teacher Zhao here too?"

Qin Chu looked down at him and said softly, "She is buried here too."

Qin Shiwu was shocked and looked at Qin Chu in disbelief.

Qin Chu said, "She died when I was in college, and it was also because of cancer."

Qin Shiwu remembered that Lao Zhao often took medicine before, and often asked Qin Chu to help her go to the hospital to get some strange Chinese medicine back to eat. A few times I even bumped into her drinking Chinese medicine in the office, but Qin Shiwu never cared about it, thinking that Lao Zhao's health was not very good.

Qin Chu: "When I was teaching us, it was found that it was already in the middle stage. After graduation, she went to the hospital. It was better in the middle, and she planned to get married, but the tumor spread to the whole body.

Qin Shiwu swallowed his saliva: "How could this happen."

When Lao Zhao came to see him back then, she comforted herself and made herself feel better soon.

In the blink of an eye, a few years later, why did he also die.

Lu Tong said warmly: "The world is impermanent, Qin Shu, cherish the moment."

Qin Shifu said, "Are you going to see your head teacher?"

Qin Chu: "Let's go."

Seeing Qin Shiwu's appearance, it would be impossible not to look at it.

Lao Zhao was in the eighth row, going up from Qin Shiwu's "own" tombstone, and he had to go three more floors.

Qin Shiwu stood in front of Lao Zhao's tomb for a while, and Lin Xiaomian stood up to say goodbye to their family, leaving Qin Shiwu with a thin back.

Pretty much the same as ten years ago.

Qin Chu said, "We will wait for you in the car."

Qin Shifu looked back at him.

Lu Tong instructed: "Bring an umbrella, it may snow in a while."

Qin Shifu paused: "I'll be back soon."

Not long after Lin Xiaomian left, Qin Shiwu stopped him.

"and many more!"

The two have already walked out of Nanshan Cemetery.

Lin Xiaomian turned around and Qin Shifu said, "I want to ask... Well, do you often come to see him?"

"I come here once a year, not very often. We were at the same table when we were in high school." Lin Xiaomian replied mildly.

"Bullshit!" Qin Shiwu complained in his heart, "Can I not know, I forced the table together for this same table."

The original motivation was very simple, just to copy Lin Xiaomian's homework.

Qin Shiwu took two steps forward and found that Lin Xiaomian was not very tall either. Compared with her high school, she never grew taller.

His current body is a little taller than the previous "Qin Fifteen", but Lin Xiaomian will definitely not notice it, because for him it is a matter of a few months, and for Lin Xiaomian, it is a matter of more than ten years. .

Qin Shifu grabbed a handful of hair, not knowing what to ask Lin Xiaomian.

She was also one of her good friends back then. Qin Shiwu died so casually, and now they meet again in this awkward situation, making Qin Shiwu feel a little guilty and don't know what to say. distress.

He didn't speak, but Lin Xiaomian spoke first: "How long have you been in high school this year?"

Qin Shishi answered honestly, "First grader in high school."

Lin Xiaomian asked him again, "How old are you?"

Qin Shifu said, "I will be fifteen years old after my birthday this year."

After Lin Xiaomian heard what he said, his eyes fell into the snow.

Qin Shiwu felt a chill on his face, he reached out and touched it, it turned out that the sky started to snow again.

He couldn't help but wonder: What is she doing in such a daze

Qin Shifu thought again: Otherwise, ask her where she works, and I will go to her to play after my vacation.

As a result, I thought about it again: Forget it, maybe she is married, and I am not the same age as me at all.

Qin Shiwu's spiritual world was simply terrifying and blank. He couldn't come up with an answer to the world's difficult problem, "What should I do if my good friends suddenly start a family in a few months?", so he choked up and said nothing.

Lin Xiaomian put away his umbrella, Qin Shiwu said strangely, "Why are you putting away your umbrella? You will catch a cold with such a heavy snow."

The next moment, the woman hugged him.

Qin Shiwu hurriedly opened his hand and took a step back in horror, with a shocked expression: =mouth=!

"Wait!" Qin Shiwu felt that Lin Xiaomian was hugging too tightly, "Wait, wait!"

Call it "Auntie", he wouldn't even call him dead.

Let's call him "Lin Xiaomian", it seems that he is neither big nor small, more rude.

Just when Qin Shiwu was struggling, Lin Xiaomian suddenly cried silently for a while, and then let him go.

"Thank you." She lowered her head, the same as sixteen years ago.

She wanted to say this for a long time. On an afternoon when chickens and dogs were dancing, the sun was shining and the playground was lively. In the classroom of Class 12, she was threatened by a big bad boy and made her stand in the classroom. Copy homework for him on the desk.

Lin Xiaomian remembered the feeling of helplessness at the time. No one in the class was willing to help her because they were afraid of that boy.

This seems to be a very normal thing. Because she is small and easy to be bullied, she will always be a front-line person who is bullied.

That afternoon, a teenager suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her out of the mud pit.

Lin Xiaomian always wanted to thank him, but couldn't find the opportunity.

Her "savior" was very busy, either dealing with other suitors or circling around Lu Tong. Later, it was a sudden terminal illness and parting from life and death.

She said thank you and waited for 16 years.

"This is for you." Lin Xiaomian pulled out a photo and stuffed it into Qin Shiwu's hands.

She opened her umbrella, turned around hastily, and whispered, "I recognize you."

This is what Qin told her fifteen or sixteen years ago: When we meet again, you will definitely not recognize me.

Lin Xiaomian is now answering: "I recognized you the first time I saw you."

Qin Shiwu looked down at the photo in his hand, and could see that it had been well kept and sealed for 16 years. The edges and corners of the photo were curled and faded.

In the photo is a group photo of a playground with him, Lu Tong, and Qin Chu in a doll costume.

The other photo was blank with only one background, but Qin Shifu recognized it: this one was his selfie.

—The wallpaper of his previous mobile phone was taken on the football field. The people have disappeared, but the background is still there.

Qin Shifu's hand trembled, and when he looked up again, Lin Xiaomian had disappeared.

As soon as his heart moved, a terrible thought emerged in his heart: Lin Xiaomian knew him!

Sixteen years ago, he said nonsense to the other party that he was transmigrating, and she remembered it! And—she believed it! She must have recognized herself just now!

"Lin Xiaomian!" Qin Shiwu took two steps.

"Damn it." He scolded in a low voice, unable to say what he felt in his heart: "How can you run so fast?"

"Lin Xiaomian! Where's the person!" Qin Shifu went around and couldn't find it, and then lowered his head to look at the photo with only the background left.

As for people, how can people disappear

Is it a cutout, how could it be possible... What is Lin Xiaomian doing when he has nothing to do with deducting himself from the picture

He paused for a while, as if remembering something, turned around and ran towards Nanshan Cemetery.

Qin Shiwu's heartbeat became more and more violent. He stumbled and almost knelt in front of "Qin Shiwu"'s tombstone, finally paying attention to see clearly the time of "Qin Shiwu"'s death.

September…

Qin Shifu's pupils shrank suddenly.

September, how could it be September...

Wasn't that the day he crossed over

Moreover, Lu Tong said that Qin Shiwu swallowed his saliva, and Lu Tong clearly said that "Qin Shiwu" died on New Year's Eve, and the new year has not been finished yet.

Why didn't the time of death match? This Qin Shiwu died in September, so what about the "Qin Shiwu" he passed through, why did he die on New Year's Eve

Is all this his dream

Qin Shifu pinched his face and frowned in pain.

It's not a dream, he just met Lin Xiaomian, and he still has a photo from sixteen years ago...

Qin Shiwu hurriedly flipped through the photo to see. A strange scene happened in the photo. It was originally a group photo of three people, but now there are only two people left. "He" is slowly disappearing.

In just a few seconds, "he" seemed to evaporate, and the photo, like his selfie, vacated a person's place.

Qin Shiwu was stunned in place, and suddenly understood a truth: he couldn't say it.

Absolutely can't say...

Lin Xiaomian didn't say anything, but told himself in a very obscure way. Even so, the only photo that retained the existence of "Qin Fifteen" was corrected by the objective timeline after he met Lin Xiaomian.

Well, they... know that too

Qin Shiwu stood in front of the tombstone, with two piles of snow on his shoulders.

Do they remember my parents

Qin Shifu didn't dare to ask. What happened back then, he didn't dare to ask at all.

After being in a trance for a while, Qin Shiwu lifted his stiff legs and walked down.

Lu Tong waited for him for a long time, and when he saw him coming down, he immediately became anxious: "Why don't you use an umbrella?"

He quickly patted the snow off Qin Shiwu's shoulders and rubbed his face: "Is it cold?"

Qin Shiwu came back to his senses and hugged Lu Tong suddenly.

When Lu Tong was hugged by him like this, his body was a little unsteady, and he hugged him back gently: "What's the matter? Did you encounter something sad?"

Qin Shifu shook his head.

He seemed to know why Lu Tong had "ignored" him for more than ten years.

Qin Shiwu had never experienced the feeling of wanting to say something but not being able to say it so deeply. Because of his fear of unknown variables, he didn't dare to say anything. He was afraid that he would break the current balance and some supernatural event would occur.

He has even experienced time travel, what else can't he believe

Qin Chu opened the umbrella: "Don't stand outside and freeze."

He half wrapped his arms around Lu Tong and carried his wife and son into the car.

"Grandpa is coming to Hangzhou to celebrate your birthday this year, have you thought about how to spend it?" Qin Chu asked.

Lu Tong said, "Don't make it too popular, just have a family dinner."

Qin Chu: "I don't want to, but you know that my dad is a bit old-fashioned. He thinks that his grandson has just woken up, and he needs to be bigger and bigger, so that he can be happy."

Lu Tong sighed: "Then just do whatever you want, Dad. I don't have any objections, how about you?"

He asked Qin Shifu.

Qin Shiwu still did not recover from his thoughts just now. He now feels that his brain is not enough, and he needs to urgently read two quantum physics books to explain these mysterious and mysterious events.

The last photo in the world representing "Qin Fifteen" has disappeared, and now only Qin Shu remains.

Even if Qin Shifu tried to find any evidence, he would not find any evidence that he had really been there 16 years ago.

It's like a dream, maybe he still remembers it now, but after a few years, can he still remember it

Dreams are generally like this. When you fall asleep, you feel awake, and as time goes by, it will be completely forgotten.

Maybe one day, he will probably feel that all this is his dream.

Returning home that day, Lu Tong was tired and sleepy, so he slept as soon as he got home.

Qin Shiwu lay beside his bed, and after he fell asleep, he silently returned to his room.

Before entering the door, he was stopped by Qin Chu in the corridor, holding two cans of Wangzai milk: "let's talk?"

Qin Shiwu was listless.

Qin Chu smashed him with his fist: "What does it look like to be dejected, tell Dad, did you encounter any difficulties in life?"

Qin Shiwu held one of the cans of Wangzai's milk, which was still hot, and took a sip: "Speak up, will you help me solve it?"

Qin Chu: "Speaking out makes me happy."

Qin Shifu: "Damn!"

Qin Chu took him to the garden room on the second floor, which was surrounded by transparent glass with a thick layer of snow on it.

Open the glass door in front of you, and a cold wind blows in.

Qin Chu: "Don't tell your mother, or you will be scolded if you catch the two of us blowing here."

Qin Shifu gulped down Wangzai's milk, slammed the jar on the table, and performed drunk milk live.

"Dad, I saw Lin Xiaomian today, and she gave me two pictures."

Qin Shiwu fumbled around in his pocket for a while, and handed the photo to Qin Chu.

Qin Chu glanced at it and said, "It's unexpected, it's reasonable."

Qin Shiwu understood everything when he saw Qin Chu was not surprised. He couldn't help but wipe his eyes with his arm: "I'm sorry..."

Qin Chu rubbed his head: "what's there to be sorry for?"

Qin Shiwu cried loudly: "I always thought you hated me!"

At this time, Qin Chu still didn't forget his venomous tongue: "My words are a little bit. Who let you share Lutong's love as soon as you were born. But his words are indeed wronged."

Qin Shiwu lay on the table with tears in his eyes: "Does Lu Tong know too?"

Qin Chu laughed: "Little brat, do you think your acting skills are good? How can you hide from him by playing a big sword in front of Guan Gong?"

"I'm sorry..." Qin Shiwu cried with red eyes.

Qin Chu: "Why did you apologize again?"

Qin Shifu said in a muffled voice, "I made you sad."

Whether it was sixteen years ago or sixteen years later.

Lu Tong once experienced a despair, and sixteen years later, he let Lu Tong feel the fear of the year again.

Qin Shiwu didn't know how Lutong spent the month he was unconscious after he fell into the water. He was holding on to a humble hope that he was traveling in time and space, or he was desperate to think that he would be the same as sixteen years ago. , said to disappear, to disappear.

"I've been causing you trouble, sorry woo woo woo..."

Qin Chu went into battle with both hands and pinched his face: "Who said you were in trouble? Stop crying, with a face like mine, crying so ugly."

Qin Shifu retorted unwillingly: "I'm handsome even when I cry!"

Qin Chu: "It's okay to cry here at my father's place. You are not allowed to cry in front of Lu Tong. Do you know that. Otherwise, he will be sad for months, understand?"

Qin Shiwu was pinched in the face and forced to nod his head.

Qin Chu: "This is an agreement between the two of us, and we can't tell your mother, understand?"

Qin Shifu: "I understand! Stop pinching me, it hurts to death! Can I eat with my face!"

Qin Chu punched him: "I don't know who gave you this face, no big or small."

Although Qin Shiwu didn't feel that he was comforted, he suddenly became suddenly enlightened.

Qin Chu was like this, asking him to comfort him in a soft voice, it would be better to pinch Qin Shiwu for a while. However, there is a reassuring power in him, as if as long as you rely on him, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome.

Qin Shiwu's trip to the cemetery today really made him grow up a lot, and gave him a new understanding of life and living.

When the child had enough crying, Qin Chu suddenly said, "If you haven't figured out where you are going for your birthday, I have a place that I want to take you to."

Qin Shifu's sadness came and went quickly. When his father caught him, he immediately became interested: "Where are you going?"

Qin Chu: "Keep it secret for the time being, just like before."

Qin Shifu felt that he was pretending to be a ghost, so he patted his butt and walked into the room.

Qin Chu looked at his back and said to himself, "It's all grown up."

Qin Shiwu's real birthday is actually a little later than the previous "Qin Shiwu", and it will already be a year later.

This year, Qin Heng and the others came to Hangzhou from Beijing to celebrate the New Year. The family lived in a villa, which was more lively than usual.

Qu Muyao played with Qin Shiwu for a few days, and Lu Tong went to school in person to arrange Qin Shiwu's suspension of school, so that when the school started in February, he could go directly to save a school day. middle school.

For fifteen or sixteen-year-olds, taking classes is a very ordinary and ordinary thing.

However, Qin Shiwu, who has lived in a short fifteen years, has had ups and downs, and he has encountered all kinds of extraordinary things over and over again. Therefore, when he heard the news that he was going to class next semester, when he asked him to face the class, it was like a lifetime.

After the New Year, Qin Heng and the others returned to Beijing in an urgent matter.

Lu Tong and Qin Chu still stayed in Hangzhou to celebrate Qin Shiwu's birthday.

The opening time of No. 1 Middle School is after the Lantern Festival, a week after the Chinese New Year. Qin Shiwu's birthday was just two days before the Lantern Festival. The snow in Hangzhou was hard to fall, but it was still cold. The wind was like a bone scraping knife, raging on his face.

Qin Chu got up early on his birthday.

Lu Tong went to boil an egg and asked Qin Shifu to eat it no matter how much he hated it, so that the next year would be smooth.

At night, Qin Shiwu couldn't help but ask Qin Chu where he would take him.

Qin Chu sold off for a day, and when it was dark, he finally set off for the suburbs.

The car drove for forty-five minutes, and after passing the viaduct, it became more and more remote.

Qin Shiwu rubbed his arms: "It's so gloomy, Dad, you wouldn't plan to take me to a remote place to kill me!"

He tutted: "Although I know you are very careful, I didn't expect you to actually do such a crazy thing!"

Lu Tong pinched his face: "What nonsense?"

Qin Shiwu rubbed his hand twice, and immediately admitted his mistake: "I'm talking nonsense!"

The car stopped.

Qin Chu opened the door and said, "Come down, ancestor. I committed sins in my last life, and I will be your father in this life."

Qin Shiwu snorted and squinted to look around: "It's so dark, where is this place?"

He felt that the surroundings were somewhat familiar, but after 16 years, it was normal that Qin Shiwu didn't recognize it at once.

Qin Chu found a main switch and pulled it up with a "click" sound.

Suddenly, all the lights in front of Qin Shiwu turned on, almost dazzling.

A very elaborate amusement park appeared in front of him.

Qin Shiwu's eyes widened: "This is—" Sixteen years ago, Lutong's secret base!

No, not like, not that new.

Sixteen years ago, this amusement park was very old, how could it not be broken

Unless... Qin Chu renovated it.

"Let's go." Qin Chu pushed Qin Shifu: "Welcome to the wonderful world of Qin Shu."

Qin Shishi: =mouth=!

"What a fucking name!"

Qin Chu said indifferently: "I just thought, it's not bad, right?"

Qin Shifu: "Too naive!"

Qin Chu: "This amusement park has been built for you since you were born. Every year, an amusement park will be added to it. Son, in each amusement park, there is a birthday present for you. You Now it's a one-off gift for fifteen years."

He paused and rubbed on Qin Shiwu's head: "I and your mother have never forgotten your birthday."
