After returning home, Sang Zhi immediately went back to the room, took a change of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Before she took off her clothes, she suddenly remembered the skirt she had just soiled, and ran out quickly.
Sang Zhi walked around the living room and the entrance.
Did not see the bag.
She glanced at Sang Yan's door again, and the door was not closed. But there was movement in the kitchen, and I could hear him fiddling with things in it, crackling.
Didn't this just come back from eating
Sang Zhi silently recited "it's really edible", and then walked back to the room. At a glance, you can see where the bag is on the edge of the desk.
She took the bag back to the bathroom, took a basin and threw all the dirty clothes into it.
This was the first time Sang Zhi had washed clothes by herself. She squeezed the laundry detergent, rubbed her hands where the marks were, and moved clumsily and slowly, washing it clean.
By the time Sang Zhi left the bathroom, it had been almost an hour.
Holding the basin, she trotted to the balcony to dry clothes. Sang Zhi was about to go back to her room when she heard Sang Yan's voice.
He seemed to be on the phone, with a slightly impatient tone: "It's cooked."
"What do I care about? I didn't see her uncomfortable." Sang Yan said, "What red dates and angelica? No, Mom, why didn't you tell me earlier, how could I know."
"Aren't you coming back tomorrow? You can do it by yourself. I'm exhausted. Bring your own daughter, okay? I'll take it for two days and it's all righteous and righteous. Okay, let's drink like this."
After a few seconds, Sang Yan seemed to have hung up the phone. Soon, he came out with a bowl. Seeing Sang Zhi, he didn't feel guilty, and said coldly, "Come and drink by yourself."
Sang Zhi approached slowly: "Why don't you like seeing me so much."
"If I don't want to see you." Sang Yan tutted and said word by word, "You've probably been beaten to death by me now."
"… "
After speaking, Sang Yan didn't bother to talk to her anymore and went back to the room.
Sang Zhi walked to the dining table, carefully picked up the bowl on the table, and returned to the room. She sat down at the desk and took a sip on the bowl.
Also a little hot.
She just put it aside. Looking back, she noticed Doraemon who was placed on the bed by her.
Sang Zhi walked over, picked up the doll and placed it in the corner of the bed, next to the other doll that Duan Jiaxu had given her. She lay on the bed, her legs dangling, and poked the doll's face with her fingertips.
Soon he turned over again and lay on his back, looking at the white ceiling.
out of God.
Seems a little embarrassing today.
Inexplicably, he seemed a little happy.
This sudden menarche, apart from the pain in the abdomen and the feeling of falling, Sang Zhi didn't feel too uncomfortable. But the next morning, she woke up with pain, as if someone was stabbing her abdomen with a needle.
Li Ping and Sang Rong had already returned and cooked a bowl of millet porridge for Sang Zhi.
"Is it still uncomfortable?" After she finished washing, Li Ping sat next to her and talked to her, "It's okay to come here, I heard from your aunt that Xiaobing jumped to 1.7 meters after her period."
Sang Zhi took a sip. Hearing this, she thought for a while: "Little cousin?"
"Yup."
Sang Zhi said suspiciously, "Isn't she more than 1.6 meters tall?"
Li Ping: "Yeah. In this way, you might grow to 1.6 meters in no time."
"One meter six..." Sang Zhi swallowed the porridge and shook his head, "I want to be taller, preferably one meter seven."
"Then we just eat well." Li Ping said softly, "We will grow taller slowly."
After breakfast, Sang Zhi lay in bed for a whole day, not wanting to do anything. But thinking about growing taller, this is the first symbol of growing up, and then it will no longer be like a child.
The pain doesn't seem to be that hard.
The next Wednesday is Fu Zhengchu's birthday.
Originally, Sang Zhi had already made up her mind not to go. After all, she was not familiar with the people in that circle. Li Ping also helped her sign up for a summer painting class. But the agreement was compromised because of Yin Zhenru's serial killer calls.
Yin Zhenru's home was nearby, so she came to find Sang Zhi early, planning to go with her. Because the KTV location was in another district, the two of them went to a nearby bus stop to wait for the bus.
In August, the weather is still very hot, the surface temperature is scorching hot, and there is an earthy smell. The two little girls were wearing short-sleeved shorts and standing under the station sign with umbrellas.
After waiting for a while, Sang Zhi became a little irritable: "Isn't it one o'clock in the afternoon? Why did you come out so early?"
"I forgot to buy a gift..." Yin Zhenru stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, "Anyway, we're going to Shang'an, and we happened to be shopping around there. When we bought a gift, we went to Fu Zhengchu and the others."
"It's only ten o'clock."
"It will take an hour to get there by car." Yin Zhenru looked at her watch, "We should get there at eleven o'clock. After shopping, we will go to lunch. Isn't the time just right?"
Sang Zhi hummed, "Can I go straight to lunch?"
"No! How can I go shopping alone!" Yin Zhenru said, "Also, didn't you say that you and Fu Zhengchu were in the same class for six years in elementary school? Why do I feel that your relationship is so bad."
"It's pretty bad."
"..." Yin Zhenru couldn't believe it, "Is it true or false? I thought Fu Zhengchu... that's all... you know."
Sang Zhi frowned: "What, I don't understand."
Yin Zhenru leaned closer to her ear and whispered, "I have a crush on you."
"… "
The car just arrived.
Without waiting for Sang Zhi to reply, Yin Zhenru immediately dragged her into the car.
The bus was empty, there were not many people, and there were many vacancies left. The two found a seat in the back row and sat down.
Sang Zhi was still thinking about Yin Zhenru's words, her expression was a little subtle: "Who told you?"
"You can tell by looking at it." Yin Zhenru said, "He always asks me to ask you out. Class 6 is on the third floor, our class is on the second floor, and he always hangs out of our class."
Sang Zhi asked again, "Then why don't you say that he has a crush on you?"
"… "
"Otherwise, why didn't he come to me directly, but came to me through you." Sang Zhi's expression was natural, "You two probably didn't know each other before."
"... What you said makes sense." Yin Zhenru pouted, "but if it wasn't about you, he wouldn't have come to me at all."
silence.
Sang Zhi stared at her, and suddenly pointed to the right side of her face.
Yin Zhenru was inexplicable: "Why, you have nothing on your face."
Sang Zhi pointed again.
Yin Zhenru immediately ducked back, with a face full of rejection: "You won't let me kiss you?!"
"What did you say?" Sang Zhi looked at her speechlessly, "I just wanted to tell you that I used to fight with Fu Zhengchu a lot."
"Huh? When?"
Sang Zhi recalled: "The second grade thing."
"Second grade? How old were you then?"
"I'm one year older than him." Sang Zhi said, "When I was young, some boys did beat girls, but not like him. He wouldn't do this to other girls, just like me."
"what?"
"Take me as a man."
"… "
"Once." As if trying to prove how outrageous what she said, Sang Zhi pointed to the right side of her face again, and said clearly, "He hit me with his fist and gave me a punch."
The word fist, she deliberately bit harder.
Yin Zhenru: "Damn it, is it serious?"
"Huh? I don't know if it's serious." Sang Zhi thought for a while, and then began to emphasize, "It's not that I can't beat him. The main reason is that I fell to the ground unprepared."
"… "
"Then I knocked out a tooth." After a pause, Sang Zhi continued, "I got angry and pushed him too."
"… and then."
"He also fell to the ground and suffered a broken bone."
"… "
As soon as these words came out, Yin Zhenruo dispelled his thoughts. When buying gifts later, she did not persuade Sang Zhi to choose a gift for Fu Zhengchu.
It seems that he treats the two of them as enemies and is extremely taboo.
Sang Zhi was happy and leisurely, followed behind her, looking at some gadgets to herself.
Yin Zhenru picked gifts very casually, and bought it when she saw a nice little night light. It was still early, and the two simply entered a dessert shop on the same floor.
This is a chain of dessert shops. The store is small, with a Chinese-style decoration, wooden tables and chairs, dark colors, and dim lights, which look very warm.
The air conditioner was turned on very low, isolating the heat outside.
There were no other customers in the store, just one clerk.
Hearing the sound of the door slamming, the clerk raised his eyes, his tone sounded a little sleepy, and said lazily, "Welcome."
The voice was very familiar.
Sang Zhi took a breath and subconsciously raised her head.
The man was wearing a brown apron, sitting in the cash register, his eyebrows lowered slightly, his pupils appearing lighter under the light. His gaze stopped at Sang Zhi's face.
Then, the corners of his eyes seemed to twitch.
Silence for two seconds.
Sang Zhi took the initiative to shout, "Brother."
Duan Jiaxu glanced at the girl next to Sang Zhi and nodded, "Come here to play?"
Sang Zhi: "Yeah."
Yin Zhenru's eyes twitched on the two of them, but she didn't speak.
Sang Zhi picked up the menu on the cashier counter and asked hesitantly, "Brother, are you working here?"
"Yeah." Duan Jia Xu's expression didn't care much, "Let's find a seat and sit down. Come over and order what you want to eat, and my brother will bring it to you later."
Sang Zhi snorted, and sat down with Yin Zhenru in the innermost position.
Flipping through the menu, Yin Zhenru quietly looked in Duan Jiaxu's direction and asked curiously, "Who is that? I remember that your brother doesn't look like this."
"My brother's friend."
"You look so handsome." Yin Zhenru covered her chest, "I remember your brother is also very handsome, Sang Zhi, you are so happy."
Sang Zhi: "Don't talk nonsense."
Yin Zhenru: "Huh?"
Sang Zhi: "Where is my brother handsome?"
"… "
Soon, the two chose desserts. Holding the menu, Sang Zhi walked up to Duan Jia Xu: "Brother, I want a coconut milk sago, and mango double skin milk."
Duan Jiaxu: "Yes."
Sang Zhi calculated the price, then took a piece of twenty and a piece of ten from his pocket, and figured out three more coins. She touched again, but she didn't.
Sang Zhi put all the money on the cashier. She turned her head and wanted to go back to her place to get her bag, and then take a dollar out of it to make up for it.
Just two steps away, Duan Jia Xu called out to her, "Child."
Sang Zhi turned around: "Huh?"
Duan Jiaxu tapped the money on the table with his knuckles, rested his elbows on the edge of the table, leaned down slightly, and asked with a low smile, "Does it count for bullying brother?"
Sang Zhi reacted, pursed her lips, returned to her seat in silence, took a coin from her bag, walked to the cashier again, and put the coin in front of him.
Duan Jiaxu glanced down, "There's still one piece left."
"… "
Sang Zhi felt that he was cheating her of money, and began to be honest with him: "One is 18 yuan, the other is 16 yuan, adding up to 34 yuan, there is still a 1 yuan difference."
"Didn't you say your brother is handsome?"
"… "
When did she say it, that was what Yin Zhenru said.
And what does this have to do with this.
"I've watched my brother secretly so many times, if it's for nothing—" His voice twitched, sounding condescending, "That brother will suffer a lot."
