Tao You washed his face in the bathroom and returned to the classroom with a calm look on his face. She returned to her seat, took out a tissue and wiped her face, listening to Hong Xiqi complaining in her ear.
"Xiao Youyou, you have such a special physique that you didn't do well at the beginning of school." Hong Xiqi teased, "You should go against this school."
Hong Xiqi's words touched Tao You's heart. She was thinking about this problem just now in the bathroom. She reluctantly curled her lips and urged Hong Xiqi to go back to do the questions.
"Which question did you not know just now?" Song Yimian asked Tao You after finishing his own question, and went to flip through her notebook.
Tao You, with quick eyes and quick hands, pressed the book on the table and said angrily: "No, you should do your own thing, lest someone say that I am occupying your time as the hegemon of Song University. I am not fair to you. You If I fail in the monthly exam, I don’t know how many Jia Ming will come to me to ‘chat’.”
Song Yimian let go of his hand and looked at Tao You. Seeing that she had no intention of joking, he turned around and smiled helplessly and said, "Why do you care about what others say?"
After Song Yimian finished speaking, Tao You's anger, which had not completely subsided, started to rise again. She opened the homework with a heavy movement, pressed down the pen tip hard, and ignored him.
Outside the window, the sky slowly darkened, the wind howled, the branches swayed left and right, and they would be broken in the next second, and a heavy rain was coming.
Song Yimian suppressed the notebook that was blown by the wind, stood up, closed the window, returned to his seat, and couldn't help but persuade: "The monthly exam is the most important thing now, don't lose your temper, finish the questions quickly, you can still review easily during the holidays A little bit."
"Stop talking! Class now!" Tao You frowned and warned in a low voice, "Be a good example to your squad leader!"
Song Yimian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Brother, in the self-study class, you can't even discuss problems?"
Seeing Tao You's delay in answering, he also began to get angry. He was not used to Tao You and turned the pages of the book with a "squeaking" sound, attracting the surrounding classmates to watch.
The sky was completely dark, as if it had entered the middle of the night. In an instant, it rained heavily, and the raindrops pattered on the windows, leaving streaks of water that were covered in an instant.
The autumn air was crisp and it was already the third day of vacation in a blink of an eye. Tao You was sitting at the table, looking at the pile of homework on the table and feeling worried. I went back to my hometown two days ago. Although I brought all my homework with me, it was just a decoration at best and could not be touched.
'Is anyone out? It's so boring to be at home alone. Hong Xiqi sent a message to the group of five people.
Tao You put down his pen and replied: "It's impossible to go out to play. I didn't do anything in the past two days. I have to hurry up in the remaining days." '
'Your parents are not here either? Gu Yi was lying on the sofa at the moment, playing mobile games. His parents just came back from Jiangcheng two days ago and went out for a wedding early this morning. He found it boring, so he stayed at home alone.
'Going to the studio. "Hong Xiqi directly typed, "Then come out and study. It just so happens that I don't know the topic. The efficiency of one person is still low. I can just go and have fun after studying." '
'I can always. 'Gu Yi replied quickly.
Tao You was conflicted. He could go out, but he would inevitably waste time on the road. While she was hesitating, the noise of an electric drill came from downstairs, which was deafening and would not end for a while. The next second, she decisively agreed: 'Okay, where to go? '
She put down her phone and walked out of the room, went to the study, knocked on the door and went in, saying, "Dad, I will go out to study with my classmates later. It's too noisy downstairs."
"Have you told your mother?" Tao's father looked up from the computer and said calmly, "I have no problem, as long as your mother agrees."
The master bedroom door was open, and Tao's mother's laughter could be heard.
"Mom," Tao You walked in and called her in a low voice. Before she could finish her words, Tao's mother cut her off.
"Xiaoyou, I told your Aunt Tingwan that you will study with Xiao Song later. If you have any study problems, you can solve them as soon as possible. You will take the exam after the holiday. Study hard." Tao's mother said and hung up the phone. , looking for clothes in the closet, thinking to himself, "Where did my blue shirt go?"
Tao You thought for a while and agreed. Tao's mother agreed in disguise that she was going out. She didn't need to say more. She sat down by the bed and asked, "You want to go out?"
Tao's mother buried her upper body in the closet and said in a muffled voice: "I'm going to look at the house with your Aunt Tingwan. Xiao An and Xiao Song's schools are here. It's okay for Xiao Song to live in school. It's not convenient for Xiao An to get up early every day to go to school. Before There was a plan to move here, but I never looked for an opportunity. Now that we are back, it will be easier to move around. Your Aunt Tingwan has already made an agreement with Xiao Song, so you can just contact him directly. "
"Our community?" Tao You asked in surprise.
Mother Tao laughed at her naivety: "What a coincidence. Maybe there is one newly built in the nearby communities."
Tao You continued with another question: "Why did Aunt Tingwan suddenly ask Song Yimian to teach me?"
Speaking of this, Tao's mother stopped moving and her tone was full of appreciation: "It seems that Xiao Song took the initiative to tell Ting Wan. Look, Xiao Song is such a good child. He can learn well by himself without telling you. It's better than you." You must be attentive to your studies and learn more.”
Tao You pouted, feeling helpless.
"Your dad must have stuffed this shirt for me. How wrinkled it is!" Tao's mother finally took out the shirt and unfolded it. It was full of wrinkles. She shouted to Tao's dad in the study: "Tao Hong ! Come here!"
"What's wrong?" Tao's father walked into the room confused.
Tao's mother carried the clothes in front of Tao's father, frowned, and said seriously: "How many times have I told you not to stuff clothes randomly? Look, I only wore these clothes a few times and they are like this!"
"Don't be angry. You won't do it next time. I'll iron it for you." Tao's father took the clothes in a good temper and hung them on the iron.
Tao You was afraid of getting angry, so he sneaked back into the room quietly. New messages kept coming in from his cell phone on the bed. Gu Yi and Hong Xiqi frantically urged Song Yimian and Chen Lian to show up.
'Have you decided where to go? ' Tao You asked.
'No, neither Song Yimian nor Chen Lian came out! 'Hong Xiqi replied immediately.
Tao You exited the group chat, opened Song Yimian's chat box, and asked, "When are you going out?" '
'You set a time and place. Song Yimian replied instantly, "I can do it." '
Tao You thought about his words: "Have you seen the message in the group?" Otherwise, let's go together. There will be more people and a more lively atmosphere for learning, what do you think? '
Song Yimian didn't reply for a long time. Tao You thought he disagreed and wanted to make amends. Just after typing the first word, Song Yimian finally replied: 'Okay. '
'Then I'll tell them. Tao You went into the group and told them that Song Yimian was also going.
Gu Yi's reaction was the most intense: 'Brother Mian is such a double standard. I sent him so many messages and made countless phone calls, but he didn't even take them back! ' said, throwing out the screenshot of the chat.
Is this the same person who responded to her instantly? Tao You couldn't help but wonder if Gu Yi had found the wrong person.
'And Chen Lian. Hong Xiqi chatted privately with Tao You, "Xiao Youyou, why don't you go and ask?" '
Chen Lian was still having trouble with her, but she refused and replied to Hong Xiqi: "You better go." '
Seeing that she couldn't persuade Tao You, Hong Xiqi went to call Chen Lian herself.
After a while, Hong Xiqi suggested going to Jianlanxuan. After all, the learning atmosphere and environment there were unspeakable. Tao You was a little resistant and didn't want to go. Song Yimian also refused. The bookstore owner didn't seem to be a good person, so it would be better to see him less often. Gu Yi suddenly remembered that Jianlanxuan would be there every year before the National Day holiday. It has been closed for three days for repairs and will not open until tomorrow. Among the four people, Tao You and Song Yimian were the happiest. They both breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, under Hong Xiqi's strong recommendation, everyone decided to go to her house. .
Hong Xiqi's home is in the north of the city, Siji Bay. If Tao You takes the bus, he won't be able to get there in less than 20 minutes. Plus the time waiting for the bus, the time to find a house, and half a day has passed before he can study, but since he has agreed She had to ask Dad Tao to send her off.
Tao's mother had already gone out, "Dad, are you free now?" Tao You shouted in the living room.
Tao's father's voice came from the study: "What's wrong?"
Tao You put on a smile, walked into the study, and said tentatively: "Dad, can you send me to the Four Seasons Bay in the north of the city now, and I will study with my classmates."
Tao's father looked at the time, put down his work, and said to Tao You, "Let's go and come back early in the evening."
"Thank you, Dad." Tao You said happily and went back to the house to put on his schoolbag.
Tao You found the house number according to Hong Xiqi's address and knocked on the door. Dogs barked one after another in the house. Tao You was startled, and the hair all over her body stood up. She looked up at the house number, and compared it with the address on her phone. She was right. How could there be a dog? ! Wait, Hong Xiqi seemed to have mentioned before that her family has two dogs and two cats. How could she forget it?
She has been afraid of dogs since she was a child. There is no reason. If the time went back half an hour ago, she would never agree to come here. Tao You swallowed hard, moved his legs behind the door, and found a safe position.
The door was opened, and Tao You held the edge of the door with his hands, revealing half of his head. His voice trembled slightly, and he said, "Qiqi, your dog..." Before he could finish his words, two huge figures ran towards the door, mouthing something. Keep shouting.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Tao You closed the door, leaving a crack to peek in, shouting anxiously: "Hong Xiqi! Stop them quickly! Hurry up!"
Hong Xiqi was stunned for a moment by the gust of wind when the door was closed, and did not react in time.
Seeing that the two figures had arrived at the door, they leaned into the crack of the door and sniffed out without stopping. Tao You stamped his feet anxiously, his heart burning, and his voice rose a few degrees: "Hong Xiqi!"
Hong Xiqi knelt down and hugged the two dogs and dragged them back: "Crossants, cakes, go back to the den and wait!" But she couldn't move them with her own strength. She let go of her hands and said to Tao You He said, "Wait a minute!" After that, he ran into the house.
Tao You held the door tightly, but Hong Xiqi didn't come back for a long time. Croissant and Gao Gao lay directly at the door, staring at the crack in the door. They didn't call out anymore, but they had no intention of giving in.
Finally, when Tao You was almost unable to hold on any longer, Gu Yi and Song Yimian walked down from the second floor. She said hurriedly: "Song Yimian, help! You two, walk faster! Grinding. of!"
Song Yimian and Gu Yi quickened their pace, each picked up one and shut them to the balcony.
Tao You finally relaxed completely and entered the house with his legs soft.
"Are you afraid of dogs?" Hong Xiqi asked, "I seem to have forgotten to tell you that I have pets at home, but they are well-behaved and won't bite."
Tao You naturally knew that they were good, but that didn't stop her from being afraid of them. She wiped the sweat from her palms, bent down and touched the cat at her feet, and said, "I still prefer cats."
"It's called egg tart," Hong Xiqi introduced, pointing to the cat on the sofa that was looking at them calmly but making no move, "That one is cream."
Then, she pointed to the two dogs locked on the balcony and said, "The yellow ones are croissants, and the black and white ones are cakes."
It really suits Hong Xiqi’s personality, even the name of the pet is the name of the dessert, how much she likes to eat it. Tao You was a little ashamed.
