Salad Days - Chapter 18
Qing Lingzi’s painting was placed on the office table intact. Although it was only a line draft, Jiang Shen could recognize the face of dog hair at a glance. The class teacher’s surname is Chen. She is a young female teacher. She usually has a good temper, but she is careful and careful in teaching and educating people.
“Do you know you can’t just turn your classmates’ desks in the future?” Mr. Chen said with a serious expression. “It’s very impolite and unqualified.”
The small squad leader’s head was hanging down, and he looked like he had just cried, and his eyes were red: “Got it…”
Teacher Chen: “Apologize to classmate Chen Qingling.”
The small squad leader struggled for a while, then turned around and whispered “Sorry” to Chen Qingling
Chen Qingling did not agree.
Teacher Chen was not reluctant. She smiled and handed the drawing paper back to Chen Qingling, saying: “The teacher helped you to watch it, and it was not bad at all.”
Chen Qingling finally smiled. She carefully clipped the drawing paper into the file bag and raised her eyes. “Thank you teacher.”
Teacher Chen touched her head: “Go to the interest class.”
Along the way, Jiang Shen actually wanted to ask about the painting, but Qing Lingzi seemed reluctant to say that the two walked away under the cultural palace. Jiang Shen arrived at the dance room for a while.
Teacher Lin asked him to warm up alone, and after a while Bai Jin found him again and again.
Jiang Shen was a little embarrassed: “No eggs today…”
Bai Jinyi handed him the lunch box: “It doesn’t matter, you eat.”
Jiang Shen thought for a while and asked, “Do you want to eat strawberries?” After that, she seemed afraid of Bai Jinyi’s rejection. “We planted it ourselves and don’t need money.”
Bai Jin raised an eyebrow: “Do you still grow strawberries?”
Jiang Shen nodded: “Yeah, I’ve almost cooked it recently, so I can pick it up.”
After thinking about it, Bai Jin nodded and said, “Okay.”
Jiang Shen was happy. He still had to warm up. He couldn’t chat with Bai Jin for too long. Bai Jin made a phone call before leaving: “We’ll talk later.”
Because of the late arrival, Teacher Lin dragged Jiang Shen alone to the meeting room. After the end, Jiang Shen’s shoes were too late to be stuffed in his bag and hung directly around his neck to catch the bus.
The driver master has known him for a long time and also knows that boys learn to dance. Every time Jiangshen gets on the bus, he will ask “What did you learn today?”
Jiang Shen: “Learned the white-haired girl.”
The driver master smiled: “Are you going to jump Xi’er?”
Jiang Shen touched his head embarrassedly: “I’m a man… don’t dance Xi’er.”
Driver master: “Why can’t you jump, how handsome you are!”
Jiang Shen made a big blush, and fled quickly after arriving at the station. He was embarrassed to say hello.
The book rental shop next to the station was still open, and the old man narrowed his eyes and saw him say hello: “Come back.”
“I’m back.” Jiang Shen said. He stuffed his shoes in his bag and asked, “Grandpa doesn’t close the shop yet?”
The winter vacation is about to come another month. This day is obviously cold. The small bookstore has been open for a long time in the summer, but the old man can’t eat too much, and has always closed his doors early.
The old man glanced at him, extinguished the smoke, and slowly began to clean up: “Just shut it off, you go back quickly.”
As the saying goes, when Jiang Shen left, the old man did not immediately close the shop. He stopped the movement of picking up, raised his hand, and tremblingly raised the lamp under the curtain.
The dim light shone on the only asphalt road in the village, illuminating the boy’s way home.
Hurrying to finish the meal, Jiang Shen moved a small stool to the side of the phone. He held a dance note in his hand to review, and later looked up at the phone again.
Tan Lingling passed by several times and couldn’t help saying: “No one knows when to call. What are you waiting for now?”
Jiang Shen mumbled: “Maybe I’ll call it later.”
Tan Lingling: “You will make an appointment next time so as not to look like the stars and the moon.”
Jiang Shen also wanted to refute, the phone rang suddenly, the boy quickly picked it up: “Hey.”
Tan Lingling on the side sighed with a smile and almost didn’t break the mark. His son gave him a small temper.
“…” Chen Maoxiu’s voice was a little dismissive, “How come you are so disgusting with this voice today?”
Jiang Shen said with guilty conscience: “…It’s you…”
Chen Maoxiu: “Who do you think it is?”
Jiang Shen had to ask: “What’s wrong?”
Chen Maoxiu: “Has Qinglingzi encountered something recently?”
“No.” It is much better to lie across the phone line, and Jiang Shen is not so burdened. “Qing Lingzi is a girl, there must be some secrets.”
Chen Maoxiu: “…Who are you listening to, you are so good?”
“…” Jiang Shen had to say, “There are many girls in my class, they told me.”
Chen Maoxiu’s thinking is simple, but he has no doubt: “Really?”
Jiang Shen firmly said: “Really!”
Gou Mao couldn’t think of anything else, but he was also happy, and said happily: “You don’t know, the little girl’s mouth has been sweet recently, and has always called my brother.” Gou Mao learned Qing Lingzi’s tone and said with a sharp voice. “‘Brother, I want to drink yogurt’,’Brother, I want to eat strawberries,”Brother, I want to see the chick’, oops, but be good.”
…Jiang Shen is not too willing to crack down on dog hair, but look at it like this… Qing Lingzi still eats her brother.
After hanging up the phone with Gou Mao for 2 seconds, the phone rang again. Jiang Shen thought Chen Maoxiu was looking for something again, and answered it without thinking: “What are you doing?!”
“…” Bai Jin said lightly, “Who did it again?”
Jiang Shen: “…”
Bai Jinyi: “Who were you calling before?”
Jiang Shen really wanted to die: “My friend… is the neighbor I told you before.”
“Chen Maoxiu?” Bai Jinyi’s memory is very good, especially Lai Song also mentioned this person with him.
Jiang Shen didn’t expect him to remember so clearly and said from the heart: “You are so smart.”
Bai Jinyi hummed.
Jiang Shen smiled. He held the phone and changed his ears: “What are you doing?”
Bai Jinyi: “Look at the chicken.”
Jiang Shen: “Have you grown up?”
Bai Jinyi: “Yes, I measure its weight and height every day.”
Jiang Shen: “…” He didn’t quite evaluate Bai Jinyi’s standards for raising chickens.
“Is it going to be vaccinated?” Bai Jinyi suddenly asked.
Jiang Shenyang for a while: “No, don’t you need it?”
Bai Jinyi: “Don’t you fight?”
Jiang Shen reluctantly said: “The chickens in the village are all free-range, let alone vaccinated. What kind of regular and fixed point do you have, and you have never measured the weight and height every day.”
Bai Jin’s tone was not very good, and he taught: “You are too careless.”
Jiang Shen was speechless.
“Is the strawberry picked?” Bai Jin cared about others.
“A few days later.” Jiang Shen suddenly thought of something and became active. “Will you come to our village to play in the winter vacation? You can let you pick strawberries.”
Bai Jin was silent for a while, and said, “Not this year.”
Jiang Shen unexpectedly said: “Why?”
Bai Jinyi: “I am going to the United States for the New Year this year and I am going to meet a professional boxing coach.”
Jiang Shen opened his mouth. He suddenly didn’t know what to say. Bai Jinyi’s words were not complicated, but both the so-called “American” and “professional boxing coaches” were far from Jiang Shen. s things.
They were like stars, shining brightly, he looked up at the envious effort, but in the end, he didn’t even have the courage to reach out.
“Little Swan.” Bai Jinyi suddenly called him.
Jiang Shen said “Ah”.
After waiting for a while, Bai Jin slowly said: “You don’t have to think too much.”
Jiang Shen squeezed the microphone tightly and did not speak.
Bai Jin suddenly said: “The way you dance is beautiful.”
Jiang Shen’s face was a little hot, and he was embarrassed and said, “Neither…”
“In my eyes.” Bai Jin interrupted him. “You are also like a star and a moon.”
Jiang Shen: “…”
Bai Jinyi said solemnly: “You have to wait for me to come back, you can’t eat my strawberry.”
Jiang Shen agreed, he grinned: “I don’t eat, I leave it to you.”
