Self-cultivation with a plate of tomato scrambled eggs

Chapter 20

Liangxi Sixth Middle School.

It was after three o'clock in the afternoon when the two arrived here. They had just got rid of a group of senior high school students. Naturally, there were more successors who went on to continue the life of studying hard. The huge campus was extremely quiet.The staff of the security office asked Li Tianqi what they were doing through the window. After learning that they were looking for the school teacher, they asked them to come back when the school opened after school.

Song Xiaowu originally started to feel a little nervous after meditating slowly on the bus, and it tended to intensify along the way. Hearing what the other party said, he wished he could squat down on the spot and slow down, but he was only concerned that Li Tianqi would only be faster than him Shy of being close to the hometown, he couldn't hold on until his legs were weak. He turned to Li Tianqi and said, "Find a place and wait."

There is a dessert shop on the pedestrian street diagonally opposite the school gate. It is decorated in a literary style, and the price is between 20 and [-] yuan. It has always been popular with students, but because it is still early, there are only vacancies available.

He found a seat by the window and sat down, and ordered two more drinks. Song Xiaowu looked at Li Tianqi who looked a bit dazed, pushed a glass of lime juice in front of him, and interrupted his daze: "Oh, tell me about our Sister."

This is where "Our Sister" comes in.After all, Li Tianqi couldn't help showing a little smile, and his expression became softer: "What sister, she is nearly three years older than you. When I left, she was only a little over 13 years old. She was just a child with clumsy hands. I had to keep short hair that just reached my ears, and I couldn’t wear hair clips and hair flowers. I woke up in the morning and shaved it with a comb before going out. I still like to wear skirts and paint nail polish. I used my pocket money when I was a child to buy these for her. Stuff, my mother will scold me even if she finds out about it, even if she buys those cheap little things, they are all harmful to health..."

He leaned on the back of the chair in the deck and sighed uncontrollably: it turned out that he had been away from home for ten years.In my memory, the little sister who looks like a little bean has grown into a slim girl. When interviewed on TV, she behaves gracefully and gracefully, like a lady of everyone; then, in my memory, my parents, who are in their prime, are also starting to age. With wrinkles, with gray hair on the head...

When he regained his freedom, he felt that he had been abandoned, could not find a home, and had only one person to live.I dare not continue to look for it, I am afraid that I will be rejected again in person, and I am even more afraid that I will not even have the chance to meet face to face.Looking back now, he was only touched by accident in very rare moments these years, recalling what his family was like in the past, but he never made up his mind that he must find his family, at least to see if they are doing well, even if it is It's better to have a look at it from a distance.

He is always afraid.Afraid of seeing family members being implicated by oneself, afraid of being shaken by reality, afraid of not distinguishing between right and wrong, right and wrong—fear of facing their own questions: How can we punish evil and promote good?

The handmade wind chime hanging beside the glass door rang softly. The tall man lowered his head slightly, walked in from the door, smiled at the waiter at the bar, and asked, "Is there any potted cake today?"

After learning that it needs to be made fresh, the young man nodded: "That's right, I have time to wait today. Let's have another cup of marshmallow coffee." Both things take a little time to make, the man thanked him, took the receipt, He sat in the booth behind Song Xiaowu and the two of them, and waited with peace of mind.

Before I knew it, it was close to five o'clock, and the gates of the No. [-] Middle School opened slowly. The first batch of students who came out were obviously the special students who were more relaxed in their studies, and then the junior high school children who were still in the mood for physical education.Li Tianqi and Song Xiaowu looked at each other, and then they both got up and wanted to go out, maybe they almost ran into a girl who had just entered the shop.

"Tianxin!" The man who was waiting for the cake and coffee got up and waved at the girl, but saw that his girlfriend just turned her head to look at him, and then looked back at the man who almost bumped into her just now: "You...brother?! "

The only downside of the dessert shop is that there are no private rooms.Now the four of them sat together, and Li Tianxin sat in the innermost place, wiped his eyes, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, the students who know me have just graduated, so I don't worry about being seen by them."

After adjusting his emotions, he stuffed the rest of the tissues back into his boyfriend's arms: "Don't be dumb, call me brother."

He shook hands with Li Tianqi vigorously: "Hello, big brother! My name is He Yang, a policeman, and I work in the sub-bureau of this district now. Tianxin and I have known each other since we were in junior high school, but we didn't fall in love..." He Yang secretly elbowed his girlfriend, and then stopped, and looked at Song Xiaowu again: "This is..."

Song Xiaowu took the initiative to shake hands with him: "Hello, hello, my name is Song Xiaowu."

Oh, it's fine if the surname is not Li, He Yang felt a little relieved.

Li Tianqi saw his expression in his eyes, secretly thinking that his face was a bit fierce, but he was straightforward, and his eyes were quite clean and honest.Looking at his younger sister's appearance, on the surface she looks like a queen who says nothing, but the corners of her eyes and brows are full of the mood of a little girl. Li Tianqi has some confidence in her heart, but she doesn't say anything.

Turning to his sister, he asked, "Have you started leading the graduation class?"

Li Tianxin smiled: "For the first time, it's just a class teacher. Only a middle-level title in our school can be a head teacher. A junior like me just came out and has to work for three years before taking the middle-level exam." There was no lack of coquettish complaints in his tone, Li Tianqi comforted him and said: "Take your time, it's too hard to be a head teacher, and it's not necessary..."

"Ah, ah, you two should go sit together," Li Tianxin made a gesture to exile her boyfriend to the opposite chair: "If it's like this, even the perfunctory tone is exactly the same."

In front of his girlfriend's scolding, Officer He has always been powerless to resist, and only smiles pamperingly and contentedly. Song Xiaowu, who is sitting across from him, feels a little bit embarrassed, and silently drinks his drink with his head down.

While talking, a large group of students had poured into the dessert shop one after another, and the originally quiet place suddenly became noisy. The booths and bar chairs were almost full of people, schoolbags, various textbooks, and test papers. There are drinks and desserts in different colors in large cups and small saucers.

The location of the booth occupied by Li Tianqi and the others was already sought-after, and they were all adults, so they were particularly eye-catching among the uniform school uniforms. The four of them had to get up, feeling as if they were returning the space to the younger generation.

On the street opposite the No. [-] Middle School stands a large shopping center with everything you need for basic necessities, food, housing, transportation, eating, drinking, and entertainment. It is very convenient, but the temptation is too great. To study here, you probably have to be a little quiet amidst the hustle and bustle.

Brother and sister Li Tianqi were standing on the side of the street talking, while He Yang and Song Xiaowu were busy hailing taxis, but there were so many taxis coming and going, but none of the empty taxis could meet them.Recently, taxi-hailing software has become very popular, but there have been many reports of being robbed of wealth by drivers and even endangering personal safety. Naturally, Li Tianqi would not allow his sister to ride in those cars, even if a boyfriend who is a policeman followed her. No way - as for the policeman himself: stand on the same front with my brother-in-law in everything, and only then can I win my brother-in-law to the same front as myself!

Li Tianqi looked at the backs of the two who had gotten to know each other not far away, and said to Li Tianxin with a little emotion: "I also dreamed that you had a boyfriend before, but in the dream you were still a child, It's a bit unacceptable...”

Hearing this, Li Tianxin lightly punched him on the arm: "I wasn't ugly when I was young, okay?"

Li Tianqi stroked her hair: "It's not ugly, it's just too young." Then I realized later that even brothers and sisters, it seemed too intimidating to do such an action when they were adults, not to mention that they had been separated for many years.

He put down his hand and handed what he was carrying in the other hand to his sister: "The bracelet is open and should be about the same size. You can wear it if you like it. If you don't like it, you can leave it alone. These are for my parents. Yes," I haven't said these two words for a long time, and now I feel a little articulate, "You can take it together."

Li Tianxin didn't reach out: "Brother, don't say you won't go home."

Li Tianqi was silent for a while, and then said: "Let them be mentally prepared." Then he glanced at the two people who had just stopped a car, "Besides, Xiao He is here, so it's not good to make trouble in front of him." It's not looking like it."

"You don't have to worry about him..." Li Tianxin retorted subconsciously, but refused to explain the reason, just said: "Go back, brother." The tone was still the same as when he was a child, as if he was just pestering him to buy something.

"Brother, I'll carry the things, you sit on them first." The brother-in-law-to-be ran over to be courteous, quickly lifted the things in Li Tianqi's hand and put them into the trunk, and then hurriedly opened the car door for him. Immediately, Li Tianqi didn't have time to refuse, he felt his hand being held by someone - it was Song Xiaowu, he encouraged him with his sister and the others, but he held his hand at the same time.

Li Tianqi tried to calm down, nodded slightly to Song Xiaowu, and Song Xiaowu sat in—he was always a little allergic to the smell in the taxi, and sitting by the window could give him some psychological comfort—Li Tianqi also sat down, and Li Tianqi Seeing this, Tianxin naturally planned to let the three men squeeze back, and he went to pull the door on the side of the co-pilot, but He Yang stopped him: "Tianxin, sit next to brother." Not paying attention, Yiyan and He Yang changed places, but Li Tianqi took another look at his prospective brother-in-law who was buckling up the seat belt in the passenger seat, and understood.
