In the early winter morning, the breeze was gentle, and the warm sunshine slanted in through the window, spreading on the bed.
Lin Zhixia lazily turned over, rubbed her hair, lazily got off the bed, yawned and walked out of the room.
Seeing her come out, Mother Lin took a look and said, "The heating is not very hot this year, so wear more clothes." After saying that, she went into the kitchen and took out the breakfast she bought early in the morning and put it on the dining table.
Lin Zhixia opened the dining chair and sat opposite Mother Lin, "I'm not cold," looking at the eggs, steamed buns, soy milk, and fried dough sticks on the table, she happily said to Mother Lin, "It's so rich today."
"Eat quickly, your dad bought it early in the morning after his shift," Mother Lin looked at her with a gentle smile in her eyes.
Father Lin knew that his daughter loved to eat breakfast at the entrance of the community, so he left early in the morning and bought it back early in the morning.
Lin Zhixia took a mouthful of steamed buns and asked vaguely, "Dad, why didn't you see it?"
Mother Lin handed over the cup of soy milk and said, "I'm going to bed in the bedroom. I didn't close my eyes all night."
"oh."
After having breakfast, Lin's mother said she wanted to go shopping in the supermarket. Lin Zhixia happened to be going to the stationery store to buy some materials for painting next week, so she went out with her mother.
Arriving at the supermarket downstairs in the community, Lin Zhixia pushed the shopping cart and said to Lin's mother attentively: "Mom, what do you want to buy? I'm treating you today."
"You, it's good that you can support yourself. If you give me a treat, I think it's better to forget it!" Mother Lin said with a helpless and doting look on her face and walked towards the vegetable area.
Watching her mother picking out her favorite vegetables, Lin Zhixia leaned intimately on Mother Lin's shoulders, wrapped her arms around Mother Lin's arms and shook them a few times, and said happily: "Mom, I know you are the best to me. ”
"It's good that you know. Don't let me worry about it in the future. I'll burn the incense," Mother Lin said, putting a handful of picked vegetables into the shopping cart.
By the time they finished paying and came out of the supermarket, it was already almost 11 o'clock at noon. Mother Lin was anxious to go home and cook, so she took the purchased vegetables home first and asked Lin Zhixia to go to the stationery store to buy the materials she needed.
Lin Zhixia walked slowly towards the stationery store near the community. When she went in and asked, she found that everything else she wanted was available, except for the A3 sketch paper. She had to walk two more stops to buy it at other stationery stores.
Unexpectedly, I met my high school classmate, Chen Lu, there.
The college entrance examination is a watershed. Many students have ushered in a different life and lived a different life. She also knew that Chen Lu didn't go to college at that time, didn't repeat her studies, and went straight to find a job.
After going to college, Lin Zhixia basically lost contact with her classmates in high school. Especially after working in the past few years, they lost contact even more. They didn't even recognize her for a while. It was Chen Lu who took the initiative to give her Say hello.
Just when Lin Zhixia arrived at the stationery store and was picking out the A3 paper she was using on the shelf, she was suddenly bumped into by a child, and then she heard an urgent voice, "Can you please slow down and apologize to Auntie quickly?"
"It doesn't matter," Lin Zhixia turned to the other party and said.
Both sides stared at each other's face for a long time.
"Are you Lin Zhixia?" Chen Lu was the first to speak.
Lin Zhixia asked in confusion, "Are you..."
"I, Chen Lu, you don't recognize me."
Chen Lu looked at Lin Zhixia, who couldn't remember for a moment, and then spoke again, "The girl sitting in the seat behind you was always copying your homework before."
Lin Zhixia looked at the woman holding a little boy in front of her, with a slightly bulging belly who was pregnant with her second child, and thought about it carefully, "It's you, you have changed so much, I didn't recognize it for a moment."
Chen Lu took two more steps toward Lin Zhixia, looked up and down for a while, and then said excitedly, "Why do you feel that you haven't changed at all? Unlike me, you are already old and yellow."
Lin Zhixia looked at the enthusiastic Chen Lu in front of her, and couldn't find anything to say back to her, so she had to show her standard gentle smile to Chen Lu.
"We haven't seen each other for many years. I heard that you have been admitted to college and where are you working now."
Listening to Chen Lu's questions one after another, Lin Zhixia knew that Chen Lu must want to chat with her for a while. After all, their relationship was not very bad in high school, so she answered honestly: "I work locally. , to be a kindergarten teacher.”
When she heard that Lin Zhixia was a kindergarten teacher, Chen Lu excitedly grabbed her arm and said, "Then which kindergarten are you in? Do you know if Jingchang No. 1 Kindergarten should sign up?"
"ah……"
Lin Zhixia looked at Chen Lu doubtfully.
Chen Lu pointed sideways at the little boy playing with toys on the shelf in front. "My son, he is almost three years old. I want to make plans early to see if I can enter the best kindergarten in the city." Chen Lu turned around and looked Xiang Lin Zhixia, caressing her belly with both hands, a happy smile on her face, "You will know when you become a mother. I just want to give him the best."
Lin Zhixia looked at the plump Chen Lu in front of her and said, "I didn't expect that you got married so early and are already a mother of a second child." She looked back at the little boy and said again: "They have a baby every year. Indicators, it would be better if you have a house in a school district."
Chen Lu saw some of Lin Zhixia's emotions and took the initiative to say: "As you know, I didn't do well in the exam, so I went straight to find a job. Later, I met my husband and got married."
Chen Lu then asked: "What about you, are you married?"
Lin Zhixia shook her head lightly.
"Then there must be a boyfriend!"
Lin Zhixia moved the corners of her mouth bitterly and said, "No."
Chen Lu's eyes widened in shock, and she still asked in disbelief: "I really don't have a boyfriend, nor am I married."
"Um."
"This is not like you, Lin Zhixia," Chen Lu excitedly took Lin Zhixia's hand, "You were considered the class star of our class at that time. There were so many people who liked you, but Ma Yong, do you still know? , how good you were back then!"
"There's really nothing between us, we just play nice, like buddies," Lin Zhixia took the initiative to explain. She knew that Ma Yong was also married to another girl in the class at the time, and she didn't want others to misunderstand.
Chen Lu took out her phone from her bag, found the QR code and handed it to Lin Zhixia. She shook it a few times and said, "Let's add a WeChat account and I'll ask my husband to introduce it to you."
"Okay," Chen Lu's enthusiasm made Lin Zhixia unable to refuse, so she had to take out her mobile phone and add WeChat.
Seeing Chen Lu walking out of the stationery store with a smile on her face and holding her son gently, Lin Zhixia was stunned for a while. She didn't know what her future child would be like, whether it would be a boy or a girl. She was actually looking forward to it.
Then she started to feel sad again. She didn't even have a boyfriend yet, and nothing was confirmed between her and Zhao Xu, so talking about having children in the future was just a bit of a dream.
Suddenly, Lin Zhixia's mood dropped to freezing point. She didn't know what kind of road was waiting for her in the future.
