THE LIGHT OF HIS WORLD - Chapter 17 I miss you so muc
Wednesday’s final parent-teacher conference was cancelled because the vocational school next door rented the school grounds for exams. The electronic report card was sent instead, and teacher Zhou sent the ranking of the results to the group, and there contacted each parent one by one to communicate with them about their child’s learning this semester.
Lin Jia Xi’s grades were stable, and this time she got third in her grade, and her father said he would give her a big red envelope for the New Year.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. The trees along the road in the city are hung with red lanterns of all sizes. The main push rack of the clothing store, are hung with red cotton coats, the flavor of the year is getting thicker.
On New Year’s Eve, Lin Jia Xi’s family had a lively reunion dinner. She did receive a red packet from her family.
After eating, accompanied by nephews and nieces to go outside to set off fireworks, shooting stars all over the sky, children laugh, she also smiled. When she was ready to go back, she received a call from Du Ru.
“Xixi, is there any arrangement tonight!” The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers. I’ve already made plans with Song Yi and Jane Bai.”
There were no other arrangements, so Lin Jia Xi naturally agreed.
The river is bustling with people, who must be at home eating the New Year’s dinner and watching the Spring Festival.
From a distance, I saw several large boats on the river, the boat was brightly lit, colorful, set off a strong flavor of the New Year. She thought she was early, but she didn’t expect Song Yi and Jane Bai to arrive before her, having bought a bunch of fireworks and setting them off by the bridge.
“Ban Hua, here.” Song Yi waved at her from a distance.
She jogged over: “You’re here early, didn’t you say 10:00, it’s only 9:30.”
“It’s better to stay at home after eating, than to come out and set off fireworks.”
He said, handing her a few oddly shaped fireworks.
She did not have time to study how to play, it was taken away.
Looking up, Jane Bai looked at her.
“This kind of she play it.” Saying that, he re-picked a few from his pocket and handed them to her.
It was fairy wand.
Jane White lit the fuse for her.
Fairy wand in the night sky emitted a silver flower fire, she held in her hand around a few times, “so beautiful ah.”
She smiled, and her eyes showed a bit of silver light, like shooting stars.
When they put all the fireworks in their hands, Du Ruo has not yet come.
Song Yi called, Du Ru said she moved a box of fireworks from home, too heavy to walk slowly, let help to get. Song Yi naturally went over right away.
…….
The only two people left are Jia Xi and Jane Bai.
They quietly leaned on the bridge railing looking at the river lantern boat in the distance, the boat flowing with light.
“Release the river lantern?” Jane Bai voiced out.
“Yes.” Lin Jia Xi looked at him.
Jane Bai went to the vendor, bought two, and handed her one.
The two of them wrote down their wishes on the river lanterns and put them into the water. At first the river lantern was pushed by the water wobbly, a little unstable, with the water drift very slowly, the light and shadow bright.
A new year is coming.
Across the street, a naughty child threw a firecracker – a small ball-shaped firework that explodes with a loud sound and is often used to make people whole.
It is a good thing that the firecracker rolled down to Lin Jia Xi’s feet, Jia Xi was scared and cried when she was small, and has always had a shadow of this, panicked back a few, almost fell down.
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things.
“It’s okay.” The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services.
The child who threw the firecracker also knew he was in trouble and instantly slipped away.
Jane White’s hand is still holding Jia Xi’s shoulder, Jia Xi is almost in his arms. It just so happens that at this time, Du Ruo’s voice came from the bridge: “Xi.”
Jane Bai also naturally let go of Jia Xi.
“It’s okay.”
Song Yi held a large piece of fireworks and followed Du Ruo towards them.
“I came from the bridge over there and saw that there was a show on the lightship across the street. Let’s go see it together.”
…….
Along the way, there were gradually more pedestrians on the road. Unknowingly, 12 o’clock was about to arrive, and the red lanterns in the long streets and alleys were linked together into a long dragon.
The big clock on the ship already showed the start of the countdown, and I do not know who started the countdown.
They found an empty penthouse and set the fireworks alight.
“BANG! BANG!!!”
With the arrival of the New Year, countless fireworks rose into the air and then exploded at the very top, lighting up the entire night sky. The people around, together with their relatives and close friends, hugged each other and said “Happy New Year!” and blessings to welcome the new year.
Happy New Year, boys and girls.
The long winter night became heavy, and I don’t know when we will wait for spring.
It was not expected by anyone.
A raging flu virus swept the country.
One moment everyone was celebrating the New Year with joy, the next moment the real-time news rolled out the blood-soaked reality.
— An outbreak of the new coronavirus in Province H. Human-to-human transmission has been confirmed, and several health care workers have been infected.
Province H. The city is closed.
With it, martial law is imposed across the country – provinces issue a Level 1 response, no gatherings and no going out.
……
Lin’s parents Lin’s mother to the company are on vacation, and every day and her at home to watch the news and talk about the real thing. She looked out the window, the fading leaves, in droves, fell on the silent and unoccupied street.
However, this battle without smoke and mirrors intensifies, and the number of confirmed cases increases exponentially every day, which is frightening. Lin’s mother called the elderly members of her family every day with a phone call and a good deal of advice.
Du Ruo inquired about their recent situation in the group, talking about the desolate long street when they went out to buy masks, which has almost become an empty city.
The group was built a long time ago, in addition to the two of them, and Song Yi and Jane Bai. During this period, almost all Du Ru and Lin Jia Xi in the group chat, Song Yi occasionally interjected a few sentences, Jane Bai in addition to report a peace, rarely speak.
The actual notch of your family is not covered]
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services.
The last time I went out, I got 10 of them, which is not enough] said Du Ru.
I’ve got some extra ones at home, so I’ll send them to you by courier.
The actual? God, where did you get the masks?
The family bought them]
Lin Jia Xi saw the message, thought about it, point Jane Bai’s avatar private him.
The actual fact is that you’ll be able to get a lot more than just a few of the most popular and popular items.
She thought, he said last time, sometimes live alone.
Wait a moment, received a reply from Jane White.
The first thing you need to do is to get some things back, and they are already gone.
Lin Jia Xi frowned, so busy ah.
I have to work now]
[Well, they are soldiers]
I see, he, he must be very lonely.
In the silent living room, there was only the sound of rustling electricity. Jane Bai leaned back on the sofa and watched the news indifferently, wordlessly.
He remembered the day they came back, he should have been happy.
The door that he pushed, slipped in a ray of sunlight, his mother reached out to hug him, he stepped back and said to wash his hands. He saw the flicker of loss in her eyes and was suddenly chagrined that he seemed, well, just used to being detached.
They cooked a sumptuous meal together, and it had been two years since the last time the family sat together like this.
The sun seemed to be shining brightly, too. My father asked about his grades, and he answered them all, and my parents nodded their heads, very satisfied.
At the end of the day, the mother spoke with discretion, saying that the flight was tomorrow morning.
His face sank for a moment, and his mother hurriedly explained that he had to go to the epidemic area to support. He could not listen to it, put down his chopsticks and went back to his room.
Leaving a room full of despondency.
The morning they left, his mother came knocking on his room door. Opening his eyes, he hesitated, but was ready to get out of bed and open the door.
When he reached the door, he heard his mother say, “Xiao Bai, I’m leaving with your father, take care of yourself, keep this card, I’ll leave it at the door.”
The door was opened and locked again with a “drop” sound.
He stood in place for a long time and smiled, lonely and sour.
He has been taking care of himself for a long time, hasn’t he?
The night was already heavy, he fell into the soft sofa. He began to regret that he hadn’t said to them to be safe.
“Dingdong.”
The phone screen lit up. In a vague haze, he saw a new friend message on the home page.
[Xiao Bai, miss you so much]
In the darkness, he let his emotions spread.
……
The start of the school year has been postponed once again, and students have probably never spent such a long holiday. In order not to waste time, the school offered online classes to review old knowledge.
With the support of all parties and the prevention and control of the epidemic. People started with anxiety and anxiety, gradually calmed and settled, prayed and waited for the blooming flowers.
In March, spring came.
The number of new cases kept falling until that day when everyone squatted in front of the TV. A spokesman for the national prevention and control department said: “Today there are zero new cases nationwide, victory is all around us, we have waited.
Families hugged each other, smiled and laughed and shed tears.
…….
In mid-April, spring returns to the land and everything grows. After the new cases continued to be 0 for 15 days, various physical industries across the country resumed work offline.
Another half month passed and school started.
The warm spring sun was shining high that day, and the kapok on campus was in bloom.
This semester, in addition to the six students who chose liberal arts left, there were also two students who fell out of class 1 because of unsatisfactory final exams, and naturally 2 new students who squeezed up from other classes were added.
Luo Xiaomei was not a gifted student, so she stayed up late almost every night reading books and brushing up on problems in order to get into Class 1, wearing heavy glasses that could not cover the dark circles under her eyes. Some male students in the class laughed at her for being a panda and a nerd. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.
The day school started, she received a notice from her teacher that she had been admitted to Class 1. After the great elation in her heart, she was left with nervousness and anxiety, drifting and hanging in the air. Teacher Zhou took her and another boy into the class, and the students looked quite kind and greeted them warmly.
“Well, two new students, choose a seat for yourself and sit down.”
Luo Xiaomei didn’t dare to look around, she only saw one more position in front of Jane Bai, who she knew, the boy who was sitting 1st in his grade last semester. After thinking about it, she went towards that position.
“Eh eh, she’s not going to sit in that seat, is she?” Someone whispered to discuss.
“But that seat ….”
“Shhh.”
Jane Bai watched the girl stop by the desk in front of her and moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something.
Someone was quicker than him, “Sorry, that’s my spot.”
Everyone looked toward the source of the sound.
The young girl like seaweed long hair scattered in front of her chest, obviously the same school uniform, in her body but extraordinarily pure and charming, she walked step by step towards Luo Xiaomei, behind her like a light.
“Classmate sorry, this is my position, please choose a new one.”
After saying that, she put down her school bag, incidentally unzipped and touched out a bottle of milk, handed it to Jane Bai’s desk, and said, “Long time no see.”
She has long hair, he thought.
Taking the drink but not letting go, his fingertips over the top of hers, he asked, “You’re well.”
“Yes.” The young girl’s face was scarlet as she inclined her head and smiled, her long hair slipping from her shoulders.
When school started soon, Lin Jia Xi launched a high fever, but the family was terrified, went to the hospital for examination and blood draw, chest X-ray. Fortunately, it is just a common cold and fever, a few days to get well. Today to open a health certificate, so back to school delayed some time.
The new student froze at the side, Lin Jia Xi followed her line of sight and asked, “Do you also want to drink yogurt?” She fished out another bottle from her school bag.
“Here.”
Luo Xiaomei froze and took the yogurt bottle, before leaving she thought, are they in that kind of relationship.
……
The first middle school is worthy of the first middle school, within a few days after the start of the school year, the spring tour was arranged in fire.
The location of this spring trip was chosen in Taoyuan Mountain.
The peach and pear blossoms were in full bloom all over the mountain, reflecting together, like a lost earthly wonderland.
“Say, the school found this place is really good, look there are barbecue grills.”
“More than that, there is a pond in the back of the hill for fishing, and there is a pottery gallery over there.”
“…….”
In the morning, the teachers of each class took everyone to carry out some activities in a unified manner, and in the afternoon, they let the students do their own activities within the safety of the rich equipment and facilities that everyone has long wanted to experience.
Lin Jia Xi originally also wanted to go to the barbecue, but too many people, she simply gave up and went to other places to shop. The first time I heard from other students that there is a pottery museum, she turned a few corners and found it. The design of the pottery pavilion is antique, with some dried mugwort hanging on the lintel, and on the wall facing the pavilion is a frameless display case with all kinds of pottery works on it.
“Little girl, do you want to make pottery?”
“Well,” Lin Jia Xi spoke hesitantly, “but I’m not very good at it.”
The boss lady smiled and said, “It’s okay, it’s very simple, you can try.”
Seeing Lin Jia Xi nod, the boss lady brought some clay, trays and grinders, and simply showed her how to do it, and Lin Jia Xi started to do it herself. At first, she did not know what she wanted to make, so she just went with her heart. She found that the shape she made seemed like a big white, and then she simply made a big white.
After pinching the overall outline, she thought about it, and then hollowed out the inside, and then cut out a long, small opening in the head of the Great White. After doing these roughly finished, she looked at 360 degrees and thought she had done a pretty good job. The boss lady also praised her talent, and then helped her wrap it up in newspaper, saying she should leave it here to dry naturally and let her pick it up before she left in the afternoon.
