It was really a very small house, with one bedroom, one kitchen and one bathroom, and a small balcony for drying clothes. When the two of them were in the most difficult time, two big boys lived here. Well, later Lin Chengyu successfully returned to school and went back to school to attend classes and live in the school dormitory, which was a bit better, but he would come back when he had time.
He couldn't explain clearly at that time, he just felt very comfortable getting along with Jiang Xiao. When his life changed and he felt depressed, watching Jiang Xiao work hard and be happy all day long, he would always be encouraged and feel that life became more interesting.
He didn't realize that it was a love that took root.
Later, Jiang Xiao met many friends and noble people who helped him. He gradually learned a lot and started a business. The two of them moved out of the group rented house and lived in a commercial house with two bedrooms and one living room, a flat of more than 200 square meters Apartment, after Jiang Xiao and him confessed to each other for a while, he bought the small villa, and the two of them have been living there ever since.
He thought that the two of them should live like this for the rest of their lives, but he didn't expect life to come to an abrupt end like this.
A house is a place of shelter and a place of memory. When Lin Chengyu opened the door of that house with a small cake and a key, he was in a trance for a moment.
"Xiaoxiao," he said softly, "I'm back."
No one paid any attention to him.
The lights in the room were off, and it was pitch black.
"...I brought you a little cake that you like."
"I'll bring you a small cake tomorrow too."
"It's all my fault, I made you suffer too much."
"Now I will work hard and give you all the best things in the world."
"... sorry, I know you hate me and don't want to see me."
"But I miss you so much."
He knew that the current Jiang Xiao didn't want to get closer, but he just couldn't help it. He wanted to treat Jiang Xiao well, no matter whether he could get a response or not.
Lin Chengyu didn't want to turn on the light, he groped and curled up on the small bed in the room, there was always a reason why he didn't dare to come back before, seeing things and thinking about others, the more he thought about it, the more painful he was, wishing he could go back to the past and strangle himself to death.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiao can come back again, but he doesn't know when he will be able to win back the warm yellow light and that person waiting for him to go home.
Jiang Xiao himself didn't remember many things, and he didn't expect to be dug out by Lin Chengyu after a lifetime.
He turned upside down on the big truck all the way, and carefully protected the small cake in his hand. Fortunately, he stored it well and the weather was cold. After returning to Houlin, the small cake was still the same after it was taken out.
Houses these days usually have a wood storage room on the first floor, about ten square meters up and down. Xia Wanwan helped him clean it up before, and it can be used to store goods. He moved some lighter ones to the upstairs room. go.
After cleaning up, he finally sat down with his mother to have something to eat.
"I brought it all the way back, it was hard work," Jiang Xiao smiled at her, her tone was a bit coquettish, "This is really delicious, if mom likes it, I will bring it back for you next time."
The mousse cake has a strong cheese and milk flavor. Although it is a bit small, it is enough for two people to cut.
"It's very delicious," Xia Wanwan rolled her eyes, "but it's too troublesome. Mom doesn't want to work so hard every year."
"It's okay, it's okay," Jiang Xiao said, "I don't think it's hard."
Apart from being full, food always has some special meaning, just like Jiang Xiao's wish, that everything will be sweet in the future. When the cake was stuffed into his mouth, he was satisfied even in his heart.
The day Jiang Xiao left Houlin to buy goods was the day when the school's final grades came out. He asked Lin Heyuan to help him get his grade report. Sure enough, not long after he came back, Lin Heyuan stood at the door of his house and knocked.
Just after Jiang Xiao finished moving the goods, she felt tired and sleepy after eating something to mend herself. It was hard to sleep on the big truck, shaking, but she could squint her eyes for a while.
He was taking a shower when Lin Heyuan knocked on the door, and Xia Wanwan opened the door.
"It's Xiao Lin, come in quickly," my son's friend Xia Wanwan still knows, "Have you eaten yet? Have some at Auntie's house?"
Lin Heyuan smiled at her politely, and said, "Thank you, auntie, I have eaten. Is Jiang Xiao back? I have his report card."
"I'm here!"
Jiang Xiao just came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. He was wearing pajamas, and while wiping his wet hair, he beckoned Lin Heyuan to sit down, and then dragged his plush slippers to get things in the room.
"Sit first, I have a present for you!"
Xia Wanwan bought Jiang Xiao's pajamas for him. He carefully selected a set of brown bear pajamas. He put them on very cutely. Lin Heyuan stared at the brown bear and took it out of the room while dragging its plush slippers. A bag, and stuffed it into his hand happily.
"For you."
Lin Heyuan looked down and was stunned for a moment. There were several physics books in the bag, and there was a small box under the book. He opened it and saw it was a little strange ornament. Jiang Xiao showed it to him.
"The balls on both sides will move together, like this." Jiang Xiao tried it, and the ball started to move, "It seems to be called Newton's pendulum ball. Isn't it magical?"
Lin Heyuan: "... amazing."
The principle is not complicated, Lin Heyuan looked at him and asked, "How do you know I like physics?"
"You lent me the notebook, I can tell," Jiang Xiao asked him, "Then do you like this gift?"
Lin Heyuan nodded.
"That's great," Jiang Xiao said, "I've been choosing those books for a long time."
There was still a faint smell of shower gel on his body, his hair was dried a little with a towel, but there were still a few strands hanging on his forehead, his face was a little red from the steam, and he wanted to pinch it, as if water could come out.
"By the way," Jiang Xiao remembered something, "Did the grades come out?"
Only then did Lin Heyuan remember his reason for coming.
"Yes," he took out the report card, but still stared at Jiang Xiao, "You are in the top 100."
Ninety-fifth in grade, among the top 100.
Although Jiang Xiao was confident in his heart, he was relieved like a boulder falling when the grades came out. He sincerely thanked Lin Heyuan: "Thank you, if it weren't for your help, it would be difficult for me to improve so fast this semester."
"... It's you who worked hard."
Looking back, Lin Heyuan couldn't explain why he fell in love with Jiang Xiao. At first, it was because of his sister's watch. He found that the "degenerate" top student Jiang Xiao was not what everyone thought. He was very nice. He also worked very hard, and later Jiang Xiao took the initiative to ask him to borrow notes and he agreed, and then naturally had some exchanges in studies.
Teaching Jiang Xiao to read is a very fulfilling thing. He is very proactive, and he can draw inferences from one point to another. He has an interesting personality and is also lively.
Up to now, he has not regretted being friends with Jiang Xiao at all. There is light in this person's eyes, and Lin Heyuan has also seen it.
"Thank you for the gift, I really like it." He was about to go back after delivering the report card, looking at Jiang Xiao, "You are tired too, go to rest early."
He said he liked it many times, and he probably really liked it.
"Got it," the gift was confirmed, Jiang Xiao happily waved at him, "I'll bring it to you again next time."
After he woke up from a nap, he was about to start planning how to sell his goods.
He had planned earlier that the thick forests would snow in winter, and there would be a special spring market at the end of the year. There would be locations in the county where there was a lot of traffic. Merchants would set up sheds and connect them together to sell everything. , At this time, many people who worked outside also came back, and they were generous with buying new year's goods, and the spring market business has always been very good.
Ye Yingying's father was grateful to Jiang Xiao for bringing his son to the right path before, and he found a good berth for Jiang Xiao because of this. The busiest time in the spring market is during this period, and Jiang Xiao has to be busy with the arrangements. In a hurry, the bunk had to be propped up the next day.
Fortunately, his bunk was very close to his home, so Ye Yingying got a tricycle from somewhere, and Didi helped him deliver the goods.
Jiang Xiao gave him the art utensils he bought, and Ye Yingying said, "Oh, I'm going to draw a dead person, but she took them happily."
He really likes to draw, otherwise, according to Ye Yingying's restless temperament, learning art is so tiring, he wouldn't have persisted until now.
But after helping Jiang Xiao to deliver the goods, he has to go back to the studio to learn painting, the winter vacation is not much off, and Xia Wanwan has to go to work. It was just a booth, Jiang Xiao thought he could handle it, but he didn't expect Lin Heyuan to come.
"I'll help you." Lin Heyuan explained.
"Aren't you doing homework at home?" Jiang Xiao was still a little surprised seeing him, "How do you know I'm here?"
Lin Heyuan sat down on the plastic stool beside him: "Ye Yingying told me that as for studying, it's not too late."
He didn't forget to bring something for Jiang Xiao, a jar of hot cocoa in a thermos, it would be more comfortable to drink it outside in cold weather.
Just as Jiang Xiao was about to continue talking to him, he heard someone calling his name from another direction.
"Xiaoxiao!"
At present, only Lin Chengyu can call himself that.
What is he here for? Haven't you had enough trouble in Liujiang not long ago
Jiang Xiao's originally good mood was somewhat disturbed, he frowned, and before he answered, he turned around and saw that this person had already walked to his booth.
Lin Heyuan also has an impression of him, too, Lin Chengyu's face, it's impossible not to have an impression.
Isn't he the strange person who pestered Jiang Xiao last time
"Small business is hard to do, I want to help you," Lin Chengyu walked into the booth, and after seeing Jiang Xiao, he felt warm even in the cold weather, "I don't want to disturb you, I really just came to help."
Jiang Xiao: "No, go away quickly."
Lin Heyuan didn't like him very much either, and felt that this person was a bit of a trickster, anyway, he didn't want him to stay by Jiang Xiao's side, so he replied after seeing this situation: "I will help Jiang Xiao, the booth here is small, and there can't be too many seats." people."
It was the first time for him to crowd out people so intentionally or unintentionally.
From the beginning, Jiang Xiao wanted to do it alone. He brought two stools, one to sit on, and the other to put something conveniently. Now that Lin Heyuan came, the two stools were cleared out, but now there are people sitting on them.
"It's okay," Lin Chengyu looked at him. He was holding a bag of things in his hand, and took out a folding chair from it, with a smile on his face, "I bring my own."
Lin Heyuan: "..."
He was getting more and more upset seeing this person.
Jiang Xiao now has Lin Heyuan sitting on his right, and Lin Chengyu on his left. He feels a little strange standing in the middle.
He just wanted to sell goods to make money, how did the situation become like this
But he doesn't have much time now, and the number of people in Spring City is gradually increasing.
The goods on Jiang Xiao's booth are very eye-catching and rare in Houlin. At the beginning, many people came up to inquire about the price. Jiang Xiao originally wanted to get Lin Chengyu away, but now the business is the main business and there are customers. He All of a sudden, I turned my attention to the past and introduced the goods to others.
Forget it, he has to be busy making money, so Lin Chengyu can do whatever he likes.
Jiang Xiao's smile is really deceptive, and he speaks eloquently, and he can coax guests of all ages very well.
Moreover, his goods are really good, and the price is right, cheaper than other stalls. After a while, the first transaction was opened. A mother bought a small toy car for her son.
Both Lin Chengyu and Lin Heyuan were not lively and eloquent people. Later, more and more people came to the booth, and Jiang Xiao gradually became overwhelmed. The two men stared at each other and competed secretly, until a customer looked at them and yelled: "What are you doing in a daze, looking for money!"
The two people were suddenly called back to their souls by the aunt's sharp voice.
