The black car was parked at the gate of the primary school, and the sound of the car with good performance was minimal. The shiny black body reflects the sunlight, exuding an air of indifference that no strangers should enter.
The windows of the car were all closed, and the black glass film blocked the view. After seeing the golden military logo on the car, the roadside peddler walked silently with a basket far enough away from the car before he started yelling.
The old and new cultures are in a period of conflict. The Chinese culture that has been passed down for thousands of years collides with the influx of Western culture. The women in cheongsams near the school are swaying, and the women in Western-style skirts are in twos and threes. bright.
Men in suits and leather shoes usually wear pocket watches and often have a smile on their faces to appear a gentleman, while men in long gowns mostly walk with their hands behind their backs, restrained and calm.
The bell rang for the end of get out of class, and the school gate began to be noisy and lively. The sounds of children playing, parents calling, and hawkers shouting overlapped into a scene of market life.
Zuo You had just become the new monitor of Class 1, Grade 1, and the first thing he did after taking office was to organize the whole class to leave the school gate together after school.
He held his head high, and the brand new suit on his body set off a delicate and lovely face with baby fat.
Watching his classmates being picked up by their parents or meeting to go home to leave, his small face is sullen with the seriousness he learned from Zuo Shengyan, but the fingers behind his back are constantly moving, betraying his joyful little heart.
Standing behind Class 1, Grade 1, Qingruo is wearing a light gray cheongsam and white handmade shoes. Her body is graceful like a perfect porcelain vase that has just been unearthed, with a gentle temperament like a lotus in water.
Zuo You said goodbye to the last classmate, his little face was illuminated red by the setting sun, and his eyes were shining and clear.
Turning back, put both hands on the shoulder straps of the schoolbag, bowed politely and obediently towards Qingruo, "Goodbye, Teacher Xu."
Qingruo raised her hand to gently stroke his hair, and brushed away the mischievous hair on his forehead, "Go back."
"Yeah." With his schoolbag on his back, the small body rushed towards the black car that he had already seen.
He opened the door of the back seat by himself, and the cold atmosphere in the car was completely different from the bustle and joy outside, Zuo You said in a well-behaved and sensible tone, "Father, Uncle Cheng."
Cheng Jin in the driver's seat turned around and greeted him. Zuo Shengyan, who had been closing his eyes in the back seat, finally opened his eyes, and turned to watch him climb into the somewhat high car seat. He was sitting in a standard posture with his back straight. He responded calmly, "Mmm."
Zuo You closed the car door, Cheng Jin started the car, the car passed by the school gate, Zuo You saw Qing Ruo still standing at the school gate, did not make a sound, just watched her hand shake through the black glass, the amplitude was very small and there was no movement sound.
From the corner of Zuo Shengyan's eyes, he moved out of the window from his small movements. The car had already picked up speed, and the woman who flashed by in his sight seemed to be a flash in the pan.
The noisy background around her seems to have turned into a landscape in her slim figure.
The car entered the residential area of the military headquarters and stopped at the intersection of Zuo's house.
Zuo You didn't ask, but just opened the car door by himself, carefully preparing to jump off the high car seat with his short legs.
"Father, I'm going back first." The little one stood by the car, with a grown-up look on its little face.
Zuo Shengyan nodded, and Zuo You closed the car door.
The man sat behind with his eyes closed, and the compartment was so quiet that there was almost no sound of breathing.
Zuo You watched the car go away, wiped his face and sighed, turned around and returned to Zuo's house with his schoolbag on his back.
The servant had already prepared his dinner, probably knowing that Zuo Shengyan was going to have dinner outside, so he only prepared one for him.
Zuo Shengyan doesn't like to waste, the portion of his dinner alone is just the amount that he can eat or should eat at his age.
His bedroom and study room are on the second floor, and Zuo Shengyan's living room is on the third floor, without permission, Zuo You is the same.
Go back to your study, do your homework, and preview tomorrow's homework.
There is no need for a servant to remind him to sleep, the clock on the wall has reached the time, Zuo You puts his homework on the table, goes into the bathroom and washes himself a little awkwardly, changes into pajamas after coming out, turns off the light and goes to bed.
It was very late when Zuo Shengyan got home, the servants left the porch lights, he turned off the lights after entering the house and went upstairs.
I drank some wine for dinner, but I drank very little, and now the smell has dissipated.
Zuo You's room was very quiet, the curtains were not drawn, and the street lamp outside had a little light around the window.
Zuo Shengyan went to the bedside and stood condescendingly on him, Zuo You's sleeping appearance was very good, he didn't have the usual problems of children kicking the quilt, etc., even the previous habit of sleeping with things in his arms was forced to change by his calling.
Zuo Shengyan watched him for a minute or two, then walked to the window and drew the curtains.
Exit his room to the small study next to him, turn on the light and sit down in Zuo You's somewhat small chair, and check the homework he put on the table, there is a piece of paper besides the homework on the table.
Light-colored letter paper with kapok patterns on the corners.
letter to parents
Dear parents, hello; I am the teacher in charge of Class One, Grade One: Xu Qingruo. It's an honor and a pleasure to...
The handwriting is very delicate, and the words are sincere and appropriate.
Zuo Shengyan saw the parent's signature position below, took out the pen he carried with him from his coat, signed his name, put the letter back in its original place, and closed the homework book that Zuo You had laid out on the table.
Zuo You had already woken up when the servant came to call him in the morning. After answering the call, he turned over and got up. After changing his clothes, he went to the bathroom to freshen up. The button was wrongly buttoned, and the curled hair was smoothed out.
Go to the study next door to tidy up the schoolbag, put a letter to the parents in the homework book and put it away carefully. Zuo Shengyan's signature font is about the same size as Qing Ruo's. A few, Zuo You raised his hand to touch the uneven letter paper before putting it in the homework, when will his handwriting be so beautiful.
Zuo Shengyan had already finished his breakfast and was dealing with official business. His deputy was waiting by the side, and there were many folders beside him. Zuo Shengyan was sitting on the main sofa, looking through the documents, with a pen in his hand.
"Father, Uncle Liu, good morning."
Zuo Shengyan's response was always only one word, but the deputy's attitude was much gentler, he stopped his work and turned back to look at Zuo You who was going down the stairs with a smile and said good morning to him.
"Why did Xiaoyou get up so early?"
Zuo You pursed his lips, and just climbed onto the chair at the dining table. In front of him was the breakfast that the servant had just brought up. Zuo You looked at Zuo Shengyan. dialogue.
"I was elected monitor by my classmates yesterday, so I need to arrive at school a quarter of an hour earlier."
Before Liu Cheng's words of praise came out, Zuo Shengyan, who was carrying the document, looked up, glanced at the clock on the wall, then turned to look at Zuo You, "Wake up ten minutes earlier tomorrow."
In fact, because of his position as monitor, he had woken up fifteen minutes earlier than expected, in order to arrive at school fifteen minutes earlier.
Zuo Shengyan's words, Zuo You can only carry out, nodded heavily, and answered the words seriously. "Okay, father."
Zuo Shengyan's gaze has turned back to the folder in his hand.
After Zuo You had finished his breakfast, Zuo Shengyan had already put down the file folders, Liu Cheng had sorted out the files, and the three of them went out together, Cheng Jin sat in the car and waited at the door.
Zuo You and Cheng Jin said hello, and Cheng Jin sent Zuo Shengyan a strict greeting after saying good morning.
It was still early before school, and there were not many people at the school gate, only some small vendors were busy.
Qing Ruo changed into a cheongsam, her hair was tied behind her head, and she was looking at something like a roster in her hand, with a serious and delicate profile.
There was nothing to say in the car, the black car stopped at the gate of the school, Zuo You opened the door, got off the station and said goodbye by the side of the car.
After closing the car door, he walked steadily and calmly, which is a mature temperament that does not match his age.
The car started, and Zuo You's window was not fully closed. Zuo Shengyan's good hearing allowed him to hear Zuo You's voice rising from behind, "Teacher Xu~~"
It's so rippling, full of naughty little boys of this age and the emotions of wanting to be noticed and pampered.
Cheng Jin and Liu Cheng also heard it, Liu Cheng took a look in the rearview mirror, Zuo You seemed to be galloping towards him, if he heard the sound, he put down the things in his hand and turned around, seeing him smiling gently and softly. Bright, bent slightly and opened her arms.
Zuo You rushed in directly.
"..." Liu Cheng turned his head, Zuo You is a miniature version of Zuo Shengyan, this is a fact almost recognized by the military, polite, restrained and calm.
However, even so, he still couldn't imagine Zuo Shengyan doing what he did just now when he was a child.
Liu Cheng glanced at Zuo Shengyan in the back seat. He was wearing a straight and hard military uniform. There was no wrinkle in the corners of his sitting movements. His back was straight and tense. His legs were slightly separated, and his hands were on his knees. Thick palms protrude from the cuffs, and the cuffs are buttoned. The cuffs of the military uniform look like new clothes that have just been shaped, showing strong and ready-to-go palms.
Zuo Shengyan often closed his eyes and rested in the car, his face was deep and well-shaped, his youthful innocence faded away, his bronze-colored skin was resolute and indifferent, and his eyes were deep. Once he opened his eyes, those dark eyes could look straight at into the depths of a person's heart.
This is a man who is dangerous but full of masculine domineering and cold air.
After half a semester, Zuo You has grown taller again, and the clothes and pants in the closet have changed a lot, but the styles are almost the same. Following Zuo Shengyan's simple style, Zuo You's main color in the closet is black and white. Now The people serving in the Garment Bureau have directed to make clothes for Zuo You and send them to Zuo's house on a regular basis.
Although Cheng Jin and Liu Cheng, who often accompanied Zuo Shengyan to pick up Zuo You to and from school, had never spoken to Qing Ruo, they were already very familiar with Xu Qingruo. On Zuo Shengyan's desk.
Zuo You really likes her, but when facing her, he can't wait to run over, bump into her arms and softly call Teacher Xu, and once even applied for a large sum of money from Zuo Shengyan as a For his teacher Xu's birthday, he needs a birthday gift: a cheongsam.
Zuo Shengyan was right, the cheongsam was bought by Liu Cheng and sent to Zuo's family.
After Mr. Zuo You’s birthday, without Zuo You’s knowledge, the Garment Bureau sent a set of clothes to his closet. The value was comparable to that of the cheongsam. , because someone paid for it.
The students at the school gate had almost left, Zuo You, the monitor of Class 1, Grade 1, was the last to say goodbye to Qing Ruo, pulling on the shoulder strap of his schoolbag, Zuo You tilted his head up and smiled sweetly, "Goodbye, teacher."
Qingruo was still the same, bending over to stroke his hair, smiling softly and softly, "Goodbye~ let's go back."
The black car was waiting not far from the school gate, Zuo You opened the door and got in the car, his movements were slight and silent, "Father, Uncle Cheng."
After closing the door and starting the car, Zuo You leaned back against the seat through her schoolbag, and turned her head to look at the school gate as the car passed by. She was still standing at the gate. It has been cold recently, so she changed into a winter cheongsam and added a shawl .
"Father, the school will hold a parents' meeting at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Uncle Cheng or Uncle Liu can come over."
Zuo Shengyan closed his eyes, opened his thin lips lightly after hearing his words, and said, "I'll be here on time."
There is no ups and downs, but it is a final word.
