Lovely Allergen
Chapter 38: School gift
Le Zhishi made a serious remark, and in the end Song Yu put a big hand on his face, making his face muddled.
"What are you doing?" He raised his hand to remove his brother's troublemaker, but he heard Song Yu say, "Your ability to observe words and colors needs to be improved."
"Huh?" Le Zhishi grasped Song Yu's wrist with both hands, a little surprised.
"They are very supportive of me." Song Yu didn't make an expression, tilted his head, "Same as you."
After speaking, he lightly patted Lezhishi's cheek twice, then turned to open the door of Lezhishi's bedroom, "Let's go."
Le Zhishi felt that he was being stupid again, but thinking that everyone supported Song Yu, he felt that it was nothing to be stupid, and everyone was happy. Volunteers naturally reported, and the whole family was very happy on the day the admission notice was sent. The eldest son was admitted to college, and he wanted to invite his relatives to eat a meal.
At the dinner table, the uncle expressed dissatisfaction with Song Yu's volunteers several times.
"It's not promising. I went to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Guangzhou for good exams. What's the point of staying here? It's still such an unpopular major. Now young people learn what IT is high-tech, and the money comes quickly. "
Le Zhishi was very angry about this kind of paternalistic persecution, but he had no stand to go back, so he had to give Song Yu a chopstick of beef.
"I'm not short of money." Song Yu said flatly, "You said that the profession is very good, I am not interested."
The eldest aunt smiled, as if trying to make a round of it, "Xiaoyu, your uncle also thinks about you, yes, interest is the most important, but the subject of surveying and mapping is too unpopular, many people have never heard of it, okay Get a job."
"Furthermore, a big w is good, but it's okay for your score to be big t, what a pity, even if you go to a slightly more general major. You are still too young, you will go out to find a job in the future, no matter what Professional, T freshman will have face when it comes out, and people will look down upon it."
Lin Rong couldn't hold back the fire, "In this case, why didn't my sister-in-law go to work in the T cafeteria? Why did she stay in the local school. If you don't steam the steamed buns to fight for your breath, the T cafeteria said there is more face."
The eldest aunt was so speechless that she was stunned by her. When Lezhi shook her smile, she was also very uncomfortable, even shaking her legs happily, until Song Yu held her palm under the table with her palm to stop.
The atmosphere is not so good. Song Jin said a few words, "Xiaoyu can indeed go to those schools, but we weighed it up. If we go to T University to study a major that he doesn't like, come out and find a job that he doesn't like. The rest of life is being pushed away, and we don’t want him to be like this. Since he has a life plan and wants to engage in research in surveying and mapping, he naturally has to choose the top school for this major. Of course," he Looking at Song Yu, "Uncle and Auntie's words are also the experience of people who came here, you have to listen to it."
Le Zhishi thought to himself that they hadn't even studied in college, and they weren't any people who came over. They just found an opportunity to give pointers on this matter.
The elder aunt sighed again, "Yes, like Xiaoyu, whether you choose the one you don't like, regret it later, or regret it after you choose the one you like, there is a way of retreat. It really doesn't work, you can still inherit your father Your dad’s company. Your dad does business so hard, and it’s not for you. Take a popular saying among young people, if you have your dad, you are already a winner in life. In fact, you don’t have to work so hard."
On the surface, her smiling face was full, but it was ironic on the inside and out. Song Yu was too lazy to agree, drank soup indifferently, completely ignoring every word said by the people on this table.
But Song Jin, who has always been mild-tempered, turned serious, "Sister-in-law."
The eldest aunt was somewhat apprehensive when he saw him closing his smiley face. Before she could say a few more words, she heard Song Jindao.
"I work hard not to make him win at the starting line, but to give my son the right to choose freely."
Song Yu's hand also stopped.
"What I can give him is the confidence to be yourself."
Le Zhishi suddenly felt very touched. He had eaten a lot of meals since he was a child. He didn’t understand when he was a child. He felt that everyone was the same as He Meimei. Since the last time he visited his grandpa, he knew that his aunt’s family was different from what he had imagined. Once together, everyone will not tear the surface of the harmony.
Especially Uncle Song, he has never seen him lose his temper. He is always the one with a smile on his face that eases the atmosphere.
But this time, he stood up very seriously, stood in front of Song Yu, and escorted his choice.
Le Zhishi felt happy for Song Yu, and a little envious.
After eating, the eldest mother naturally changed the subject. After all, his youngest son still didn't know whether he could be admitted to an undergraduate degree, and he was embarrassed by having too much entanglement in volunteering. Although a meal is embarrassing to eat, the wonder of the Chinese-style relatives' meal is that no matter how tortuous and dramatic the process, it can ultimately be the standard end of a family fun, whether it is true or false.
In the few remaining summer vacations, Le Zhishi and Song Yu also went to the library together. The two rode to Shaotu and bought a cup of milk tea and a cup of lemonade in the middle of the trip. They could stay in the library all day.
There was indeed no girl he had imagined in the library. Sitting across from Song Yu, the only one who watched him quietly read and study was Le Zhishi himself.
He has been regarded as a benchmark since he was a child, step by step towards his goal and become an increasingly better adult.
Peiya High School was about to start school, and Lezhishi finally stopped following Song Yu to run to the library, instead shutting himself in the room, staying for a week. Song Yu thought he wanted to play a little longer before school started, read comics or something, after all, he was about to be in high school and would participate in military training. But what he didn't expect was that in the past few days, he didn't play when he was stuffed with Lezhi in the bedroom.
The high school started a bit earlier than the university reported. The day before Lezhishi started, he sent a WeChat message to Song Yu, who was still in the province.
[Le Zhishi: I want to have a barbecue. Let's go to the barbecue at night. It just so happens that Aunt Rong and Uncle Song are not going home today. ]
Song Yu naturally agreed.
They met at the agreed small restaurant. The delicious barbecue restaurants are generally very old, hidden in the old humane community, and there are many small tables at the door for food stalls in the evening. Song Yu stopped the car, and as soon as he entered, he saw Le Zhishi sitting by the window, looking down at the menu.
Lezhishi did grow up, with slender hands and feet, and fair skin. The crowd can see him at a glance. In addition to appearance factors, there is also a sense of pure and clean youth that cannot be ignored.
Song Yu walked over and sat across from him. Lezhi Shi immediately raised his head, his light-colored pupils brightened up, "You are here, I have already ordered a part, do you want to add anything else?" After he finished speaking, he used the menu. Blocking his face, he gave Song Yu a very low hint, "I ordered a crab noodle at the table next door, it looks delicious."
"You can't eat." Song Yu replied mercilessly, and took the menu in his hand.
Le Zhishi was very frustrated, and poured himself a glass of ice-sour plum soup, "Okay." When he poured it again on Song Yu, he suddenly discovered that Song Yu made another tick on the surface of the crab's feet.
"Didn't you say you can't eat it?"
"You can eat crab claws." Song Yu's mouth hooked slightly. He raised his hand and called the waiter to ask: "Can the hot and dry noodles in the crab foot noodles be replaced with lamb noodles?"
"Yes, yes, fans are easier to break."
Lezhishi is already very satisfied, "It doesn't matter, fans are also okay."
Song Yu checked the food he ordered again, and there was no major problem, so he handed the ticked menu to the waiter, took a sip of the sour plum soup that he passed to him, frowned.
"Is it very sour?" Lezhishi laughed, "I just took a sip and it's sour." His hair is still soft and dark brown. He hasn't cut it for a long time on vacation, and it starts to curl again. It looks good. .
"You have to get your hair straightened before school starts." Song Yu reminded.
Le Zhishi nodded, waiting for the meal, he took out a gift box from his bag and handed it to Song Yu across the table.
"What is this?" Song Yu asked.
"You can open it after you go back. You can't watch it now." Before Song Yu received the box, Le Zhishi took it away. When he nodded and agreed, he let go of it, "I was going to buy it. But I don’t think what I bought is very good."
Le Zhishi retracted his arm and held the wall of the plastic cup in his hand. "I saw it on the Internet that day that boys should not give gifts by hand because it is of little value. Generally speaking, people who receive it will not like it very much." He clenched his fingers, the cup was deformed, and the sour plum soup was almost overflowing. "And the people in the comments seem to agree with this point of view."
"But it's a bit late. I checked Weibo last night. This is already done." Le Zhishi's frustrated expression was as restrained as possible, but it was still obvious, "So you go back and read it again, no, you Take this to school and dismantle it. Don't dismantle it at home. I don't want to see your dissatisfied expression after receiving it."
The expression on Song Yu's face changed, but this guy didn't give him a chance to speak at all.
Le Zhishi looked up at him, "If you really don't like it, you can tell it. If you tell me this earlier, I won't keep doing so many useless crafts."
After speaking, he raised his head and drank a sip of sour plum soup. This posture was like taking a drink to ease his sorrow.
In Song Yu’s eyes, Le Zhishi’s self-pity and self-supporting look was a bit cute and pitiful, so he asked, "When should I tell you, kindergarten?"
When Le Zhishi thought about it, it was true that the first time he gave him a gift was the kindergarten, and the teacher taught him the love.
"Yes." Lezhishi said seriously, "this is called stop loss in time."
"It's not that I haven't refused." Song Yu raised an eyebrow.
Too. Le Zhishi said again, "That means you are not decisive enough to refuse."
Song Yu chuckled lightly, "Have you ever seen me accept gifts from others?"
Le Zhishi shook his head, "No. But you took me because there is no way, after all, I am your brother."
Song Yu's fingers tapped the table top of the dining table lightly, "I can't help you if you think so."
"Come here," Lezhishi put his hand on his cheek, "I also saw this sentence on the Internet, and many people complained about it."
Song Yu didn't understand what he was talking about, and frowned.
"Girls hate what boyfriends say the most, and there is this sentence in it." He also deliberately imitated that extremely perfunctory look, "I can't help you if you think about it this way, anyway, I am like this." Lezhishi said. Working hard, I didn't realize that I was using the relationship between boy and girl friends as an analogy, and I didn't realize that Song Yu didn't say this in a perfunctory attitude, but helpless.
"Excuse me, your baked potato chips, meat tendons, green peppers, and crispy bones." The waiter brought up the skewers and interrupted the conversation between the two. Lezhishi said thank you, a little forgotten about the content of his chat.
When the waiter left, Song Yu said, "Less internet access."
Le Zhishi narrowed his mouth, did not refute, picked up a bunch of baked potato chips and ate it.
The crab noodles without noodles were served quickly. The original crab noodles are actually similar to braised crayfish, except that the ingredients are replaced with crab claws. The burnt crab claws are spicy and fragrant, and the sauce is rich. Put them in hot and dry. The noodles are simmered for a while, so that the noodles can fully absorb the soup, which is a kind of supper that the locals love.
It's a pity that you can't eat noodles at Lezhi. The staple food is changed to noodles. Although it is not as flavorful as noodles, the taste is more smooth and refreshing, and the taste is good.
Le Zhishi is a very open minded person, and he will not be disappointed at all if he can change the way he can't eat. The same is true for many things in life, and you will not think too much about what you are destined to not get.
Even the crab claws that could not be opened, he would just give up and choose the next one to eat.
Le Zhishi always felt that he was probably the kind of person who would not reluctantly.
After a feast, they returned home. Marshmallow wanted to go downstairs and walked the dog alone when Lezhi.
Song Yu went back to his room and sat at the desk to observe the gifts Lezhishi gave. In the past, Lezhishi's packaging was also handmade, and he would draw some cartoons to embellish it, but this time he did seem to be stimulated. Knowing where to find the finished packaging box, it is exquisite and looks very decent.
But Song Yu still liked the previous packaging, the gift boxes that he grew up with, and he never lost one of them.
Le Zhishi said that he would not let it be demolished, Song Yu did so, and put the box directly in the suitcase he was about to take to the university, closed it and buckled it, and pushed it to the corner of the room.
After staying in the corner for only four days, this small suitcase accompanied Song Yu to the W University report. The school is on the other side of Jiang, not too close to home. Song Yu insisted on going alone, but Song Jin and Lin Rong felt that this was a major event in their son's life, and they had to send him anyway.
The school is surrounded by mountains and lakes. The classical buildings and western styles are fused with layers of greenery, which is very beautiful. The volunteers who welcome the freshmen are also very enthusiastic and try their best to help the freshmen. They drove in. The school was bigger than expected. Lin Rong wanted to follow Song Yu into the dormitory, but Song Yu directly refused.
Song Jin said roundly, "Xiaoyu is so old, if you go up and toss, you will be laughed at by your roommate."
Lin Rong didn't take it seriously, "If Lele is the case, she would definitely be happy to let me go up."
"So you have another chance, don't regret it." Song Yu said.
After Song Yu's repeated refusal, the two parents only wandered around for a while and went home. After all, their work is also very busy, and the school is in the same city, so they can come anytime they want.
Sending off his parents, Song Yu dragged his suitcase to the designated reporting location, which was the square in front of the General Library of Arts and Sciences. The major he chose was very unpopular, the number of reports was much smaller than that of the compound, and the efficiency was high. The queue ended soon after.
After finishing the report, Song Yu took the accommodation sheet and map, and was about to go to the dormitory. It indicated that he could take the campus bus, so he dragged his suitcase and found a stop.
Standing alone for a while, Song Yu looked down at the watch on his wrist, and when he raised his head again, another person approached not far away and dragged the box. He looked pale and tired.
There are always many coincidences in life.
A few months ago, Song Yu could not send out a greeting because he had no contact information, and it was circling in his mind at the moment.
But until Xu Qichen was only less than three meters away from him, he did not speak first.
After realizing that there was another person, Xu Qichen, who was staring at the map in his hand, raised his head and looked at Song Yu. There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly returned to an indifferent look.
He has lost a lot of weight, and his thin body looks even thinner at the moment. He is wearing a white T-shirt that is not used, light-colored jeans, and glasses, and his eyes are not divine.
Song Yu finally took the initiative to speak, "It's a coincidence, I didn't expect us to become alumni."
Xu Qichen pursed his lips, not willing to speak, and finally nodded. Song Yu wasn't sure whether he would accept this sentence or just say hello.
The campus bus was late, and Xu Qichen seemed to want to leave. Song Yu saw that he had a lot of things and the suitcase was big, and he was a little moved. He is actually not a helpful person at all, but when he thinks of Xia Zhixu and Lezhi, no matter who is there, he will not leave Xu Qichen alone.
So he stepped forward and helped Xu Qichen carry a luggage bag.
"If you don't need to take a car, the dormitory should be nearby." Song Yu glanced at the accommodation table in his hand, "I'll take you there."
"No need." This was the first sentence Xu Qichen said. His whole state is not quite right, as if the wind can fall down.
Song Yu frowned and asked a question that he thought was ridiculous, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah." Xu Qichen didn't look at him, "It's good."
"It doesn't look like this." Song Yu pierced directly.
Xu Qichen finally raised his head and looked at Song Yu, "Do I have to lie?"
Song Yu paused, unable to answer for a while, after all, he was not considered Xu Qichen's friend, at best he was a friend's friend.
"I also heard about the previous incident. After knowing that you had an accident, Xia Zhixu was very worried."
What he said are all facts, but in fact they are all nonsense. Xu Qichen will not know this. So when he finished speaking, Xu Qichen was also expressionless, and the sun was very sunny. The two stood in an unobstructed place facing each other.
"Thank you for telling me." Xu Qichen looked at the shadow on the ground, and it was completely black.
Song Yu didn't want him to have such an attitude, he tried to save Xia Zhixu something, "Xu Qichen..."
"Do you think it is a pity?" Xu Qichen suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Song Yu.
Song Yu was startled.
"What's a pity?" Xu Qichen smiled, "What's wrong with this now?"
Rumors are the most capable of destroying a person. Song Yu knows all these, especially a sensitive person like Xu Qichen, but he always feels that the result of these two people should not be like this. But at this moment, seeing Xu Qichen's appearance, he had another suspicion in his heart.
"Don't you regret it at all for walking so simply?"
Xu Qichen laughed again, and the cicadas drowned his chuckle, "If I want to regret it, there are really many things I should regret. I should regret that I let my parents take me to travel after the high school entrance examination. The only thing I should regret is that I survived the accident. I regret that when I took that bus on the first day of high school, I happened to meet Xia Zhixu."
His voice trembled, and he stopped for a few seconds at the end, and recovered a little bit, "No, probably the last thing I should regret is meeting him. After all, he is the one who pulled me up again."
There are a few girls who are chatting and laughing, who are probably new students, and they are full of anticipation and hope.
On this day when everything can be repeated, who is not full of hope for the future?
Xu Qichen took his salute from him, raised his head and said to Song Yu, "But if I do it again, I would rather never meet it."
After finishing speaking, he politely smiled at Song Yu, as calm as the first time we met. He expressed his gratitude, "If you really want me to get better, just pretend not to know me in school. After all, we two There shouldn’t be many contacts in the college.
"I will keep thinking of him when I see you, I don't want to do that anymore."
When the car came, the happy girls got in the car, but Xu Qichen left by herself.
Song Yu fell into a certain unspeakable mood. He got into the car, the space in the car was so cramped that he was breathless. On the first day of school, he met a familiar face in the new school who could not be called an old friend, but the other person was no longer the same person.
The dormitory he assigned was a row of fairly new buildings, four-bed rooms, he was the first one to come. The dormitory was not as big as his bedroom, and Song Yu always felt empty when he opened the window. He didn't want to stop and rest, so he started to pack the bed, make mattresses and sheets, clean up, and finally, open his only suitcase.
The things he brought were so pitiful. The left half of the box contained his basic clothes and supplies, and the right side contained a very empty gift box and a photo album.
Song Yu took out the album and flipped through it. It was full of children like dolls.
According to Le Zhishi's account, Song Yu took out the school start gift he received many days in advance, sat in a chair, and unpacked in silence.
In fact, he had imagined many possibilities about what outrageous things he would receive this time, but what he finally got was far from his imagination.
Lezhishi gave him a globe.
The base and bracket are all handmade wood carvings, polished very delicately, and painted with imitation metal bronze paint, and the earth, the rivers, land and mountains above it, the four continents of the seven oceans, the latitude and longitude lines, each The small details and small marks are all hand-drawn by Lezhishi imitating a real globe.
It is hard for him to imagine how much time it took.
Song Yu stared at the heavy globe in his hand, and all he thought of was Xu Qichen's words.
People who have lost hope can choose not to see each other as a timely stop, but he has no way to cut this relationship. From the rainy night that broke in without permission, Song Yu has become an older brother, whether he wants it or not, whether he wants it or not. change. Time cannot be reversed, and everything they have experienced is a memory and a cage.
Sometimes Song Yu would rather they be strangers, starting with strangers.
But he couldn't let go of those memories of growing up together.
In essence, he is the one who is deeply in conflict, but can't give up.
In the quiet dormitory, Song Yu placed the globe in his hand on his desk, and the sound of many freshmen starting school came from the window, noisy and full of youthful vigor. He leaned on the back of the chair, extended his arms on the tabletop, tapped his fingertips on the sphere, and allowed the sphere to rotate gently, as if being blown by the wind.
The globe stayed quietly on his desk, spending many nights staying up and reading books with him.
When it rained for the first time, Song Yu was outside, always worried about whether the dormitory was closed. Later, he didn't want to worry, so he made a glass cover.
In March, the cherry blossoms bloom, and the petals will occasionally float in. They are blocked by the glass and cannot fall into any ocean current described by Lezhishi.
When it snowed, it was very cold in the dormitory, and the glass cover was covered with a thin layer of white mist from time to time, and the little earth inside became misty and fuzzy.
He occasionally poked his fingertips and gently pressed it against the glass cover, leaving a fingerprint, sometimes even a name. But the retention time is short, and it will soon be erased.
As if nothing happened.
The person hiding in the hood and his globe are all safe.
"Song Yu, this globe has been on the table for almost three years, it's the same as the new one." Roommate Chen Fangyuan ate the potato chips, bent over and looked at his globe carefully, more concerned than going to the Geological Museum. "It's so good, it's the first time I'm looking so close."
"Don't move, he won't be happy when he comes out after taking a shower." Another roommate, the elder Wang Chengzhi, packed up his things, zipped up his bag, and looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, "This weather, It feels like it's going to rain again, I have to go home quickly, my mother is still waiting for me to have lunch."
"Let's go," Chen Fangyuan stood up straight and stretched, "Lao Liu is with his girlfriend, you are going home, and all of them are gone. I will go to my brother's place to play in a while. All that is left is Our handsome Song is alone in our empty boudoir."
"So is he, he is obviously local, he never goes home, he stays in the laboratory every day."
The two were talking, Song Yu came out of the bathroom, wiped his hair, and when Wang Chengzhi was about to leave, he reminded him, "Remember to bring an umbrella."
"Don't worry." Wang Chengzhi put the bag on his back, "When I come back, I will bring you the braised beef my mother made."
"I'll go down with you and take an umbrella."
"You have lost a few more umbrellas this semester, really..."
The dormitory calmed down again. He dried his hair and the sky became more gloomy. It was morning, but it looked like it was evening. Sitting back at his desk, Song Yu turned on the lamp and started reading. The phone vibrated. He ignored it and thought it was a roommate.
But the shock was not over, it was time and time again, and the news spread out. There was only one person in this style.
So Song Yu put down the book and turned on the phone.
[Le Zhishi: Brother, I have a monthly vacation]
[Le Zhishi: Aunt Rong said that she cooked soup for you, but she couldn't come if she had something to do. She asked me if I have time. Guess what I said? ]
[Le Zhishi: "Is there such a good thing?"]
[Le Zhishi: The above is the ins and outs. I'm going to your school to find you, I'll be there in the afternoon]
[Le Zhishi: Wait for me, brother]
