You Yu received a call from Teacher Ke after the day was over.
“You Yu, I’m embarrassed. The teacher didn’t expect this situation. My husband’s mother is not healthy. Our family is going to visit her hometown now. We may have to spend the New Year in our hometown this year. After two days of winter camp, you will come directly to my house and get the keys from Liu’s house downstairs. You live in my house by yourself. You can store your food in the refrigerator. It’s possible to cook and eat by yourself. OK?”
You Yu hesitated, “Teacher Ke, you are not at home. It is not convenient for me to live in your home.”
She had promised to live in Teacher Ke’s house for the second half of the winter vacation, but that was when Teacher Ke’s family was all present. If the master was not there, she would live in someone’s house. Even if Teacher Ke didn’t care, the husband and daughter of Teacher Ke were not happy that she, a strange student, lived alone in their home.
Worrying about her damaging things at home and worrying about what belongings she saw in the house, although I am embarrassed to say it, there must be such doubts. This was unavoidable.
She knew that Teacher Ke was very good and cared about herself, but because of this, she had to consider Teacher Ke.
It’s like when she was in the first year of high school because she was poor. She couldn’t afford a lot of things, and if the other people in the bedroom didn’t see something, she would suspect that she stole it the first time. They wouldn’t say it directly, but intentionally or unintentionally, they would rummage in her cabinet, and directly condemn her without saying a word, and beware of her as a thief… That was not a pleasant experience.
Teacher Ke heard the meaning of rejection in the student’s words, sighed, and said on the phone: “If there is any inconvenience, I’m afraid it will be unsafe for you to live there alone for the Chinese New Year. Okay, don’t think so much. You can’t find other places to live temporarily except for me. If it’s not safe to rent a house, just live with me. “
Teacher Ke hung up the phone, and You Yu sat on the seat and slightly drooped her shoulders, suddenly feeling the phone shake.
It was Chi Tang’s message. She sent another photo. It was a tree with small lanterns. It should be in the courtyard of the Lemon Hotel. There was also the blue tile roof of the Lemon Hotel in the photo’s corner.
“The lamp, I hung it.”
The message from Chi Tang was very simple, but the obscure little pride was hard to ignore. From these few words, we could tell that she was in a good mood.
Chi Tang had stayed at the Lemon Hotel for several days. At first, You Yu thought she was a little unhappy, but now she looks much better.
You Yu sent her a message: “Chi Tang, how long will you stay at Zhang Meng’s house?”
Chi Tang received this message and was preparing to decorate another tree in the Lemon Hotel with a small lantern. She bought this small lantern in town with Zhang Meng and Aunt Ning. Aunt Ning said to decorate the hotel for the New Year. Chi Tang casually suggested buying some small lanterns. Aunt Ning agreed, and there was still a large box. The little colored lantern for her was placed there, waiting for her to hang up with Zhang Meng.
She saw the message, put down the small lantern in her hand, and sat in the wooden corridor of the hotel. She directly replied, “I plan to live here until the Chinese New Year holiday and go back to school.”
Yes, before coming here, she only planned to live here for a few days to change her mood, but she feels much more comfortable than at home after living here for a few days, so she plans to live here for the New Year.
Yesterday, she asked Aunt Ning for her opinion. Aunt Ning also expressed her welcome to getting along these days. Aunt Ning became ruder and ruder to her. Normally, calling her was as natural as calling her daughter, Zhang Meng.
According to Aunt Ning, there will be no guests living in the hotel in a few days. There was no business in the hotel around New Year’s.
She and Zhang Meng’s daughter were the only ones to be with them each year during the New Year, and occasionally the younger brother in town would come to see them and bring order. Other than that, no one came. The mother and daughter were quite deserted. If this year she wants to be with them here, it could be more fun. Which was, of course, not bad.
Aunt Ning learned about Chi Tang’s family from her daughter and understood why she was reluctant to go home for the New Year. I couldn’t help thinking about the divorce between myself and my husband, and I took more care of Chi Tang. No child was loved by their parents, and no child could return home, which was always pitiful.
Chi Tang typed and asked, “What are you asking about this?” Before it was finished, a new message from You Yu arrived.
She said, “Can we go live there together?”
Chi Tang raised her eyebrows, sat up after a while, and dropped Zhang Meng, who was still hanging the lanterns in the yard. She ran to the hotel’s kitchen and found Aunt Ning, who was steaming buns. Another student in the bedroom, You Yu, asked me if she could also live here during the New Year.”
Aunt Ning did not hear very well, but it did not prevent her from
answering, “Come on!”
This plump aunt was so refreshing.
Zhang Meng also heard the voice running in, still holding two strings of colorful lights in her hand, “What, I just heard Chi Tang. Who did you say is coming?”
Chi Tang: “You Yu, she doesn’t know why she said she would come to live here during the New Year, so she asked if it would work.”
Zhang Meng yelled, “You Yu! Oh my god, okay! Why not? Let her come quickly! “
Aunt Ning heard clearly, “You Yu? This name is so familiar. You said that your classmate who always takes first place in the exam is powerful.”
Zhang Meng and Chi Tang stood upright. “Yes, in my dormitory, learning God, every time I rely on the first grade!”
Aunt Ning laughed. “Well, when she comes, let her urge the two of you to study hard. Don’t be crazy about this holiday and don’t do your homework. “
Zhang Meng, Chi Tang:”…”
Less than three minutes after You Yu’s question was sent, she received an answer. Chi Tang said, “Come on, when the specific time is up, Zhang Meng and I will pick you up.”
Later, I posted: “Bring less homework. Thank you. “
You Yu: “?”
After Zhang Meng was happy, she remembered a question: “Chi Tang, didn’t You Yu previously say that she was going to live with Teacher Ke during the New Year? Why did she change her mind again? “
Chi Tang: “There must have been an accident, but according to You Yu, it must not be her problem. Anyway, when she comes, don’t ask her about it. Say it if you don’t want to say it. “
Zhang Meng: “I understand.” However, this statement feels familiar. I vaguely remember that when Chi Tang came here, You Yu also told her on the phone that she should not ask why Chi Tang came here.
Zhang Meng suddenly felt, “You two are sisters. You have such a good relationship. “
On the afternoon of the end of the winter camp, You Yu got on the bus to the station in the town according to the address given by Zhang Meng and saw the tablemate whom she had not seen for almost half a month.
Her deskmate, with half-length and not-short hair, was looking down at the phone, wearing a down jacket with a thin sweater underneath, but two more scarves around her neck, an old-fashioned plaid scarf, wrapped around her neck. It was airtight, not quite like Chi Tang’s style.
“Chi Tang.”
She raised her head and saw her with a smile, and when she walked in front of her, Chi Tang opened her mouth and said, “You stand here and don’t move. I’ll get you two oranges.”
You Yu: “…”
Sitting in the car waiting for Zhang Meng to laugh, “Why do you take advantage of me when you meet?”
He greeted You Yu again: “Get in the car, it’s too cold outside. We have to stop by to buy some food, and then go back to the hotel.”
You Yu got in the car, and two oranges were stuffed in her hands. The oranges were as cold as Chi Tang’s.
Today, it was Aunt Ning who drove to pick up people. She sat in the driver’s seat and turned her head to say hello to You Yu, who was also very kind.
Before coming to pick up people, she had been around her daughter and Chi Tang about the family situation, knowing that she also had nowhere to come here for the Chinese New Year, so she talked and studied with her along the way. Don’t mention family issues.
I heard Mengmeng and the others say you went to the math winter camp before, correct?Do you make up your class? “
You Yu answered earnestly, “It doesn’t count; it’s students from several high schools in Nanlin who study mathematics together and conduct mathematical competition simulations, mainly.”
She briefly explained what she had learned. She didn’t actually understand it very much, but she understood that this little girl who seemed a little quiet must have very good grades, and her heart’s love was rising steadily. May I ask which parent does not like children with good grades?
Chi Tang, who had been loved and loved for a few days, was left out at this moment.
Zhang Meng was also curious to ask You Yu’s situation in the winter camp, “Do you still have exams? Then you must be number one again. “
You Yu: “No, everyone is very hardworking and serious. I can’t get first place every time. “
Chi Tang knew when she heard she meant, “You can’t get the first place every time. Most of the time you get the first place, and occasionally get the second place.”
Aunt Ning already felt that this girl was powerful and said, in an unusually gentle tone, “It’s too hard to study so hard. It must be an overuse of your brain. It depends on how thin you are. “
When the car stopped at the vegetable market, she took the three girls straight to the poultry breeding area, bought several chickens, smiled, and said, “Go back and cook the soup for you.”
I went to buy fish again: “The fish soup is also very nutritious; it replenishes the brain.”
I also bought a lot of goods. Chi Tang, carrying a bag of mushrooms and bamboo shoots, fell behind, and whispered, “I vaguely remember that I didn’t receive this treatment when I first came.”
Zhang Meng: “Don’t be afraid. I don’t have this treatment as a daughter. “
Aunt Ning’s ears were sharp, and she heard their chuckles suddenly, and she laughed out of her anger: “Most of them were bought back and stored for the New Year. It’s not just for this little classmate to eat alone. Well, there will be no food to buy here by that time, so I can see if you can live by eating mustard tubers! “
Carrying red dates and longans, You Yu saw Chi Tang’s flushed smiley face in a scarf, and let out a breath.
She felt slow at this moment after over ten days of high study as well as these few hours of driving and tired journeys.
Although this was a strange place for her, it must be a good place to make Chi Tang so relaxed and happy.
You Yu received a call from Teacher Ke after the day was over.
“You Yu, I’m embarrassed. The teacher didn’t expect this situation. My husband’s mother is not healthy. Our family is going to visit her hometown now.
