There is a large chain supermarket within a fifteen-minute walk of Qingque Jiayuan. After eating a rice bowl with toppings, Zhan Xi went to the supermarket to do some shopping.
She placed orders online for big items like rice cookers. This time, she mainly bought toiletries, toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels, slippers, etc. that she would use that night. She also had to buy a kettle and a thermos because she couldn't drink cold water in such a cold day.
Pushing the shopping cart to the home furnishings section, Zhan Xi saw a shelf full of stuffed toys and immediately felt itchy.
When she was a child, she loved stuffed toys and even had a puppy. But when she was seven or eight years old, she had a constant cough that wouldn’t go away. The doctor said it might be an allergy to dust mites and told her not to play with stuffed toys or keep pets.
After hearing this, Chi Guilan threw away all her dolls and sent away the puppy. Since then, she has never bought any dolls.
Zhan Xi no longer had allergies, and she suspected that the doctor had misdiagnosed her. She immediately decided to pick out a cute doll for herself to sleep with.
Which one should she choose? After seeing a pink rabbit, a white pig, a green turtle... her eyes fell on a dark blue whale.
A whale stuffed animal!
There are different sizes! The big one is more than one meter long, and the small one is only thirty or forty centimeters, with a big head, a dark blue back, a light blue belly, and a pair of smiling eyes. Zhan Xi picked up the little whale and squeezed it, and then looked at it, and thought of the cute boy on WeChat.
That's you! She put the plump little whale into the shopping cart.
In the afternoon, Zhan Xi packed his luggage at home, put all his clothes into the closet, and started to make the bed.
Qin Fei had dried the new quilt and mattress in the sun, and washed the four-piece suits, one blue and one pink. Zhan Xi chose the blue one and opened it. When he saw the pattern, a crow flew overhead.
There is a huge Princess Elsa printed on the bed sheets and quilt!
Maybe Zhan Jie still treated her as a child. Zhan Xi was speechless and had no choice but to change.
As she was packing, her cell phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was a message from Xiaoyu.
What a Big Fish: Teacher Egg, can you move
Egg Pudding: You can ask: Have you moved yet? Or, did your move go smoothly? I answer: I have moved here and am packing my luggage.
What a big fish: [ok]
Egg Pudding: Xiaoyu, I’m showing you my quilt, don’t laugh, it’s making me dizzy!
Zhan Xi stood at the end of the bed and took a picture of the spread quilt and sent it to Xiaoyu. On the quilt, Elsa had blonde hair and a blue dress, looking enchantingly beautiful. She was surrounded by snowflakes, and there was an ice castle in the distance.
What a big fish: I know this! She is a princess!
Egg pudding: Princess Elsa from Frozen, my brother bought it for me, but I’m not a kid anymore! [Smiles after tears]
What a big fish: It looks good! My sister once said that girls are always little princesses!
Egg Pudding: [Cover face][Cover face] I’m not!!!
What a big fish: You are the egg princess [grin]
Egg Pudding: Where did you learn to be so smooth-talking? It would be nice if you could talk like this when you are looking for a partner!
A Big Fish: I'm not looking for a partner anymore [I'm about to cry]
Egg Pudding: Go play somewhere else. I have to continue cleaning the house. I’ll talk to you in the evening.
What a big fish: Okay!
Xiaoyu obediently left. After Zhan Xi packed up everything, he ordered a takeout for dinner, took a shower, washed his clothes, and got into bed early.
She was not afraid of sleeping alone in a strange room. She had longed for such a life where she was in control of herself. She didn't need to wear outer pants to go to the toilet in the middle of the night. She could just run out in her underwear. Hahahaha, so happy!
There was no TV in 802, but the broadband was available. Zhan Xi took out his tablet and played a movie. He held the soft little whale and opened his mobile phone to watch a movie.
Work groups, family groups, university class groups, university club groups... every group is full of lively chats.
Wang He didn't contact her all day. If he didn't speak, Zhan Xi would not contact him on her own initiative.
Not to mention Lin Yan, this magical person can only send the magical "Good morning" and "Good night".
Zhan Xi went to read Luo Xinran’s official account.
Luo Xinran writes a tweet almost every day, and sometimes contributes to self-media accounts with huge traffic. He has also accumulated a lot of fans himself, and some of his tweets even contain advertisements.
Zhan Xi really envied Luo Xinran. Before entering university, she had no idea there was such a free-spirited girl in the world. Her family was always afraid that she would be led astray by Luo Xinran, but only Zhan Xi herself knew that she had been greatly influenced by Luo Xinran for four years.
On this day, Luo Xinran published a manuscript about a popular music talent show, which was very funny. Zhan Xi laughed for a long time and then forwarded it to her circle of friends. When she saw the little whale in her arms, she suddenly remembered that her circle of friends was not open to Xiaoyu. She thought about it for a while and decided to wait until she met Xiaoyu one day before opening it to him.
The little boy seemed to be very self-conscious and didn't dare to see her. However, Zhanxi's circle of friends contained many photos of her daily life. She knew that she was pretty good-looking and was afraid that Xiaoyu would become even more timid when seeing her appearance.
Thinking of this, Zhan Xi directly forwarded Luo Xinran’s tweet to Xiaoyu and added a message.
Egg Pudding: Hahahahahahahaha
The little fish came back soon.
What a big fish: What is this
Egg Pudding: This article was written by my college roommate, xswl! Hahahaha
What a big fish: What is xswl
Egg pudding: I’m dying of laughter!
Big Fish: Mr. Egg, I am not well educated, please stop laughing at me, I really don’t understand what you mean. [Aggrieved]
Egg pudding:…
Egg Pudding: I'm not laughing at you, xswl = I'm laughing to death. [Awkward]
Luo Jingyu lay on the bed, curling the corners of his mouth towards the phone, alas... he seemed to have made a fool of himself again.
What a big fish: So this is what it means!
Egg Pudding: [Cover face][Cover face] Sorry, these are all Internet slang. You are so young, I thought you understood them all.
What a big fish: I’m not small!
Egg Pudding: I know, I know, you are not small, you are a big fish!
What a big fish:…
Big Fish: I don’t go online very often [pouting]
What a Big Fish: I'm going to check the article first. It will take me a long time. Please wait for me.
Zhan Xi wanted to say, if you are not interested, just don’t read it, it’s not a big deal. But then he thought, Xiaoyu’s poor chat skills might be related to his low reading volume, so it’s good to read more articles, so let him be.
She watched the movie for a while, and Xiaoyu replied after more than ten minutes.
Big Fish: I've watched it. Is it a show? I seldom watch TV. I haven't seen this show.
Egg Pudding: Well, it’s a variety show. I’ve seen it. My classmate wrote it in a very funny way. You must recognize those stars in it, right
Those are some familiar faces that will appear in the Spring Festival Gala and the New Year's Eve concerts of major TV stations! Unexpectedly, Xiaoyu said -
What a big fish: I don’t know.
Happy:-_-||
She thought to herself: My mom knows them all! What generation are you from, Xiaoyu
Egg Pudding: Have you watched the video? I watched the one about the split several times and laughed every time I listened to it! Hahahahaha
What a Big Fish: I saw it, it was very funny, hahahahaha
When typing this sentence, Luo Jingyu's palms were sweating, his cheeks were hot, and he was nervous and embarrassed. He was reluctant to lie to Teacher Jidan, so what should he do? He couldn't tell the truth, so he just wanted to end the topic quickly.
He really seldom watches TV, and even if he does, he won't watch music programs.
Music, singing, opera, crosstalk… these programs were meaningless to him. He had never heard any sound, and he could not imagine or understand the word "beautiful melody". As a result, he did not know many stars whose main job was singing.
Fortunately, "Egg Pudding" did not continue the conversation on this article.
Egg Pudding: Actually, I don’t watch TV that often, but many programs are related to my university major. I majored in internet communication, and I need to learn, so I will occasionally watch some variety shows and dramas.
Big Fish: You said you studied Chinese in college? [Surprised]
Egg Pudding: Ah, yes! I have two bachelor's degrees, both in literature.
What a big fish: two bachelor's degrees
Egg Pudding: That is to say, I studied two majors, Chinese Language and Literature and Internet Communication, and obtained two degree certificates, a double degree. Have you heard of that
What a big fish: Eat a whale.jpg
Egg Pudding: You stole my picture!!
Big Fish: You are really an amazing person!!!
Egg pudding: [shy][shy][shy]
Egg Pudding: No, I’m just average, not as good as you! You’re really awesome!
What a Big Fish: I’m not that great, Teacher Egg, but you are the best and most studious person among all the people I know!
Egg Pudding: Oh, don't say that! I'm so embarrassed!
Luo Jingyu was telling the truth. There were no masters in his social circle, and the highest degree was an undergraduate. Luo Xiaomei and Gao Yuan were both undergraduates, as was Chang Ting, whom he had met once. He had no idea what Fang Xu's degree was, and he didn't have much contact with other friends and teachers who made flower embossing businesses, so they wouldn't talk about their degrees.
As for his high school classmates, few of them were admitted to universities because there were very few universities in China that accepted hearing-impaired students and the choice of majors was also limited. Most of them, like him, found their own way out after graduating from the blind and deaf school, and they worked in various industries.
Double degree - Luo Jingyu had never heard of it, but she thought it was so impressive! He thought that Teacher Jidan must be a very smart person to be so good at studying, but she didn't despise his low level of education and was willing to chat with him every day!
Luo Jingyu once again felt very lucky to know such an outstanding sister.
He turned over and lay on the bed, staring into space in a daze.
Many scenes from my childhood to adulthood flashed through my mind.
His life was destined to be different from others since birth. When he was a teenager, he secretly wondered if his life would be different if he could hear.
Later, he felt that he had come to terms with it. Perhaps this was his fate and he had no choice.
But now that she has met "Egg Pudding", Luo Jingyu couldn't help but wonder again, if he could hear, even if he was wearing a hearing aid, would he be able to meet Teacher Egg openly
He knew she was a few years older than him, and had an average figure and appearance, but he really... wanted to meet her.
For the first time in his life, he was thinking about a girl he had never met.
This strange and unfamiliar feeling made him extremely depressed.
After they chatted for a while, "Egg Pudding" went to bed. Luo Jingyu found that she went to bed early every day, before 11 o'clock. But he was a night owl, and he would stay up until midnight every day.
In the two days after the delivery of "Good Luck", Luo Jingyu was not idle and had already started making ornaments. The Christmas model had a large number of pre-orders, and Luo Jingyu had told Fang Xu before that he must limit the number! He only had one pair of hands, and he had very high requirements for exquisiteness. He couldn't make too many pre-orders.
Fang Xu said that young people should challenge their limits.
When Luo Jingyu saw the pre-order quantity list for each type of jewelry sent by Fang Xu, he almost vomited blood. He felt that he would have to work like a machine in the next ten days to complete all the orders before December 20.
Climbing out of bed, Luo Jingyu cooked a bowl of noodles for a midnight snack, then resigned herself to sitting down at the workbench and continuing to work late into the night.
