The Cheng family has three children. The eldest sister, Cheng Jingjie, has received the strictest education since she was a child. The son, Cheng Jingbo, was freed. The youngest daughter, Cheng Jingmo, was the only child who grew up in love. , There are endless things to ask. When her parents are busy, she grabs her brother's clothes and asks him to explain the all-encompassing world to herself. She likes painting very much, but loves writing more. She started writing a diary when she was seven years old. By the age of seventeen, I had written for a full ten years.
For a while, Cheng Jingmo was very rebellious. She didn't want to stay under the wing of her parents anymore. She yearned for the outside world.
According to the degree of protection the Cheng family's parents gave to their daughter, she had very little chance of traveling alone, so she made her own proposal, left a note and left. At that time, she had just turned nineteen and was having a depressed time. During the summer vacation, because college life was far from what she had imagined, and the major she was studying was not what she liked, she struggled to choose between continuing to study or dropping out. The pressure was so great that she couldn't breathe. , leave without saying goodbye.
Fortunately, when the family knew where she was, they didn't blame too much. They restrained their emotions, thought from her perspective, and chose silent support.
But what I didn't expect was that Cheng Jingmo had been away for a year, and she was so daring that everyone didn't expect it. She had negotiated with her parents countless times on the way, and she always insisted on her own idea. She must complete the arranged journey. As for the university However, the young and energetic woman said that she was happy to be expelled from school, and Cheng Jingbo was the only one who did not object.
She once said something to Cheng Jingbo, which touched him deeply.
"Brother, you know my character. If it is not voluntary, nothing will end well. I can come back immediately for you, but what's the point? My life is still my own, you can continue to study for me , take an exam, and work again? Besides, you told me that there will be gains and losses in everything, and giving up the chance to go to college is not necessarily wrong, I can gain other things."
There is another reason why Cheng Jingmo is unwilling to come back. She is in love with a companion on the self-guided tour, an uncle eleven years older than her, and a resident singer. He is talented and can play the guitar. An original music disc, very willing to take care of others, she likes him very much, and has traveled far away with his company.
When he played music for her in the Gobi desert and recited Yesenin's lyric poems, she felt that the greatest happiness here was that moment.
It's a pity that the uncle likes freedom more than little girls. He is not yet old enough to settle down, and some values are different from hers. Whenever he hears her talking about eternity, he keeps silent.
The ending can be imagined, the short sweetness is followed by endless pain.
Cheng Jingmo still has a bit of backbone. After seeing his attitude, she made a decisive decision and went home alone. Fortunately, her family is waiting for her, and she will never lose them.
She sorted out the words she wrote during a year of walking, and serialized them on her blog one after another, with exquisite pictures. She was quickly recognized by the editors of a company and turned into a book. The title of the book, there is a sentence on the cover: "Life is like a river, there is no moment of stillness, and people will eventually leave the starting point and go to the distance."
For a while after the book was published, Cheng Jingmo was busy with publicity, and temporarily shelved her thoughts. Half a year later, she found that she was still stuck in a dead end. Just talk, she couldn't suppress her feelings, and started to contact him actively.
Four months later, she planned to go to him, and she only told Cheng Jingbo about this idea.
"I have something to tell him, if I don't say it face to face, I can't live a normal life anymore!" She said in a decisive tone, "Brother, I haven't fallen asleep for half a year, as long as I have this knot in my heart, I can't live normally anymore!" Nothing can be done, it is no different from waste, please respect me in the end and trust me once, I will be back soon, and I will keep in touch with you by phone every day."
Cheng Jingbo sternly objected and criticized her. She begged him for a month and even went on a hunger strike to protest.
But she couldn't be locked up. Gradually, she was locked up at home, and she didn't say a word. It seemed that her vitality was gradually passing away. capricious.
Sadly, Cheng Jingmo didn't come back. She and her boyfriend's car fell into the glacier, and they stopped breathing together at minus 30 degrees.
The above is the story that Cheng Jingbo told Bai Ziren while recalling.
After hearing this, Bai Ziren didn't speak for a long time, but lowered his eyes and grabbed his hand even tighter.
"The dead are gone, and my life goes on." He picked up the book and continued to read a paragraph for her.
Until very late, only one of them in the two rows of buildings had the lights on. He saw that she had closed her eyes, put down the book, got up to turn off the lights, and heard her say something when she came back in the dark. talk.
What she said was, "Don't beat yourself up, it's not your fault."
He sat on the edge of her bed, tucked her in the thin quilt, said nothing but good night, and returned to the floor.
After a while, he noticed someone beside him, and when he looked sideways, it turned out that she got out of bed and sat on the floor.
"It's cold on the ground, go up quickly."
"I'll just lie down for a while." She lay down directly, closed her eyes, and sighed softly, "It's so cool and comfortable to sleep on the floor."
He couldn't resist her, so he had to hold her in his arms.
She also stretched out her hand to press his back, and cuddled closer to him, allowing the warmth from each other to pass to each other.
After being silent for a while, she raised her eyes to look at him. In the dark night, the light in her pupils was like a cluster of flames. He could clearly see her sweet attachment, and the thoughts in her heart broke through the ground. , It seems that cold water can't be extinguished.
He rolled over and kissed her.
She closed her eyes, and soon found it difficult to get used to it, his kiss was much more aggressive than usual, basically taking her breath away.
When she was about to suffocate, he let go of her, his fingers lingering on her hair, and looked at her very tenderly.
"You are beautiful." His tone no longer seemed to be narrating a fact, but with fascination.
His hands fell from her hair to her shoulders, and then slowly moved to her waist. The hem of the pajamas was wrinkled, and a corner was lifted upwards, revealing a piece of jade whiteness accidentally, which flashed across his eyes , he stared at it for a moment, not wanting to bear it any longer, he lowered his head and kissed her.
She gasped.
His hands didn't stop, running down her waist until the thin white legs were covered with warm palms, and he didn't leave for a long time.
She looked at him cautiously, saying that it was a lie that she was not nervous. He has always been reserved and never had such intimacy with her. After watching him for a longer time, she found that he was a little strange at the moment. , the undercurrent rising from his eyes was so obvious, and she was not familiar with it, she didn't know what he was going to do next.
Just when she was thinking about what to do later, he lowered his body, clasped her ankle with one hand, and kissed her calf.
She was really stunned. It was her waist just now, but now her legs. He touched her without saying hello...
Fortunately, he didn't do anything else, he slowly helped her up, took the blanket at hand and wrapped her up, looked at her quietly for a while, and said with a smile: "It's windy outside, the floor is too cold to sleep on, obedient."
Bai Ziren returned to the bed, Cheng Jingbo closed the open window and drew the curtain.
Everything was back to normal as usual.
Waking up the next day, Bai Ziren found that he had been bitten by mosquitoes several times, probably because he forgot to close the window before going to bed last night. When he was scratching gently, Cheng Jingbo came to her with cooling oil and helped her with his own hands. Apply it on the mosquito block, when the eyes move to her calf, the expression is very natural, as if she has forgotten what she did not long ago.
Then he went to make breakfast and warmed her milk, and everything was normal.
The two finished their breakfast face to face. He took his books to school, and just as he stepped out the door, he remembered something and came back and kissed her on the forehead.
"If you want to go out to relax, remember to dress neatly and don't wear skirts that are too short."
"it is good."
After he closed the door, her forehead was so hot...
At noon, Bai Ziren was skipping rope in the yard. Mo Wei went downstairs with two rice bowls and was going to buy ice cream in the street. An aunt from the same building came over and bumped into this new wife. She couldn't help joking: "It really is Newlyweds, look how good your skin is."
Mo Wei nodded generously, chatted briefly and left. Auntie looked away, smiled enviously, and suddenly found a person in the corner of the yard, who was Teacher Cheng's fiancée, and walked over to chat for a few more words.
"It seems that Teacher Cheng's soup is very effective. You have gained a little weight, but you look better." The aunt appraised her while looking at her, "There is a bump on your leg? Is it a mosquito bite?"
Bai Ziren's thoughts immediately spread out, thinking of another matter, he nodded unconsciously, acquiescing to the fact.
In the afternoon, the school held an event. All the teachers were in the auditorium. Bai Ziren went to watch. It turned out that the children made a lot of things with their own hands and gave them to their favorite teachers. After looking around, the cards on Cheng Jingbo's table had piled up like a mountain Yes, there are also paper-folded camellias, drawing books and animal paper-cutting. It seems that he is the most popular teacher. Bai Ziren is honored and proud.
"Sister Bai, this is for you." Wang Yiqi walked over, holding a beautiful greeting card in her hand.
Bai Ziren took it and said thank you, opened it, and there was a line on it: "I hope that sister Bai will become more and more beautiful and healthy, and marry Teacher Cheng soon, and be as happy as Teacher Xia and his family."
"Who is Teacher Xia?" she asked.
Wang Yiqi pointed her finger, motioning her to look over there.
Bai Ziren saw a woman on the left side of the long table. She had a child in her arms and another on her back. The man standing next to her seemed to be her husband. It was the same, holding one in her arms, one on her back, and four on her back. The children were all wearing red sweat vests and had no hair. One was laughing, one was crying, one was in a daze, and the other was sleeping, but they were all white and fat, like four buns.
"Ms. Xia gave birth to quadruplets, they are so outstanding, it is our pride." Wang Yiqi explained to Bai Ziren.
"This is too difficult." Bai Ziren scratched his head.
"Everything is possible, don't give up lightly." Wang Yiqi said seriously, "This is what Teacher Cheng said."
"..."
Since Wang Yiqi gave Bai Ziren a gift, other students came over one after another to give them greeting cards and hand-painted paintings, and they were very close to each other.
The passing of this day meant that half of Cheng Jingbo's teaching time in Jishan County was over.
The time that followed was like quicksand between the fingers, passing quickly, and it was early August in the blink of an eye. Bai Ziren had to go back, because he received a call from Fu He in advance, and he told her to go back to school in another week to help approve the test papers and do courseware.
Cheng Jingbo took half a day's leave and personally sent Bai Ziren home. When they parted, Bai Ziren felt sore in his heart. Although he didn't say much, the great disappointment showed on his face. She knew that in a few days, he would He had to go directly to the Liuhe campus to report. In the future, he would live in the dormitory there. The transportation was inconvenient, and he might not have the chance to meet once a week.
"Don't worry, I will arrange everything and come to see you as soon as I have time."
After he finished speaking, he patted the top of her head.
Seeing that she was still silent, he said again: "Don't forget our agreement."
She quickly remembered what she said before, that she would marry him after his thirtieth birthday.
"I am looking forward to it, because I have never received such a gift that suits my heart."
"..."
She finally smiled and waved him goodbye.
Bai Ziren went upstairs, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw two children, Mu Zibei and Mu Zidong. They were scrambling around the game, but they were all taken aback when they saw her.
Mu Zidong's eyes widened, but he couldn't say a word. Mu Zibei's reaction was a little faster than his. After blinking, he asked her, "Guaziren, are you pregnant?"
"No, I'm just fat."
Bai Ziren didn't have the face to answer this question, so he hurried upstairs, locked the door after returning to the room, took out the weighing scale under the cabinet, jumped on it without hesitation, and looked down at the words after a while.
One hundred and seven.
She almost fainted, how could she have gained twelve catties
She couldn't accept this data, and insisted that the scale was broken. She looked for batteries in the drawer in a panic, but there were no new ones, so she had to go downstairs to get them quietly. While eating the ice cream, he said, "Are you looking for batteries for the scale? Don't bother, just ask me. The weights of the students in the class are all measured by my eyes. I'm an expert in this area."
Bai Ziren took a deep breath, and then asked, "How much do you think I weigh?"
Mu Zibei counted and answered, "One hundred and nine."
"..."
"If you don't believe me, you can go up and weigh it now, but don't forget that the electronic scale will usually be two catties less than the actual weight."
After Mu Zibei finished speaking, he floated away, he didn't want to irritate the fat sister anymore.
Bai Ziren felt a part of his heart collapse.
