The two of them sat across from each other, neither of them speaking. The atmosphere between them in the noisy canteen was eerily quiet. Seeing Su Qingyun eating leisurely, Xia Qiu finally couldn't help it anymore.
"What do you want to do?" She didn't believe that she was just sitting here eating.
"What?" Su Qingyun was confused.
Xia Qiu's delicate brows furrowed and her eyes widened, "I know we didn't deal with Lin Jianfeng before, but you don't have to hold grudges until now, right? I was also a victim of his deception. At worst, I'll just apologize to you."
"Lin Jianfeng?" Su Qingyun almost forgot the name, "You are eating, why are you mentioning him? It's bad luck."
She was disgusted by the name.
Seeing the look of disgust on her face, Xia Qiu opened her mouth and was speechless. Before, she thought that Su Qingyun would jump into the river for Lin Jianfeng, and she still couldn't let go of him no matter what. But now it seems that Su Qingyun has feelings for Lin Jianfeng. His attitude was as abandoned as a piece of shit.
However, this was all Lin Jianfeng's fault. Xia Qiu felt sick whenever she thought that she had liked such a man.
She also nodded and muttered: "It is indeed unlucky."
A smile flashed in Su Qingyun's eyes. Xia Qiu's character is like this. She loves to live and hates to die. A girl who dares to love and hate is very special and cute in this era.
With the common target of disgust, the atmosphere between the two inexplicably eased a little.
Su Qingyun put down her chopsticks after eating for a while. The portions in the canteen were really solid. In order not to waste food, she finished a large plate of rice.
"Why don't you eat this?" Xia Qiu glanced and saw a few pieces of meat on her plate.
"I don't eat fat meat." Su Qingyun was really unable to accept fat meat.
Xia Qiu looked at her as if she were a fool. Is there anyone who doesn't like meat these days? How did Su Qingyun grow up?
She only bought two vegetarian dishes. Although the Xia family's conditions were good, Xia Qiu had two older brothers, so naturally they would not pamper her too much. She could only eat meat and vegetables twice a week.
"Do you want to eat it?" Su Qingyun asked hesitantly, and then denied it, "Forget it, I've eaten it." It's not good after all.
"What's this?" Xia Qiu rolled her eyes. This was food, not leftovers from her meal.
She took her dinner plate without any courtesy, took away the pieces of meat on the plate, and put it into her mouth. The rich fat overflowed with the aroma of meat in her mouth, and Xia Qiu squinted her eyes with satisfaction.
Su Qingyun looked at her satisfied look and smiled. She finally understood why so many people like to watch mukbang. People who eat well will have a better appetite.
Friendship between girls may come so quickly and strangely. After Xia Qiu ate a few pieces of her meat, he said awkwardly: "Su Qingyun, actually... you are not a bad person. How about we shake hands and make peace?"
Su Qingyun blinked, "Is there any conflict between us?"
Xia Qiu was stunned for a moment. Strictly speaking, except for Lin Jianfeng, there was really no conflict between them. It was just some ignorant anger. After thinking about this, she also smiled.
"Would you like to go back together after school?" The journey might not be so difficult if you have someone to accompany you.
Xia Qiu nodded happily.
After school, the two girls went home together, chatting and laughing all the way. Soon they arrived home. Xia Qiu waved to her, "See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
When Su Aimin saw her daughter coming back, she quickly asked, "How was the first day of class?"
Su Qingyun was a little helpless, "Dad, this is the first day of school for me this semester, not the first day of school in my life."
"I'm not afraid that you won't adapt." Su Aimin was a little worried thinking that if Yunyun dropped out of school and went back to school again, there would always be people talking about her.
"By the way, what did I see just now that you came back with the girl from the Xia family?" Hasn't that girl always refused to deal with this? When did the relationship get better?
"Yes, we are in the same class." Su Qingyun pushed away the worried old father who was asking questions, "Dad, I still have homework."
"Okay, okay." Su Aimin shut up as soon as he heard this.
"Then hurry up and finish it. We'll have dinner later. We'll have dumplings at home tonight. They'll still be filled with your favorite pork and cabbage stuffing. Your milk made them specially."
Qin Ying came over and asked her: "So, are there any questions that you don't know? Mom, let me help you." She was also a serious high school graduate, so tutoring Su Qingyun was not a big problem. Since her daughter wanted to study hard, she naturally I have to help too.
"No, mother, I can do it myself." Su Qingyun raised her little face and smiled obediently.
"That's good."
"Last time, the principal of the middle school in that town said that Yun Yun was excellent and smart." Su Aimin added.
Qin Ying glanced at him sideways and said proudly: "The daughter I gave birth to will naturally follow me."
Is the co-authorship the result of her work alone? Su Aimin winked at Su Qingyun carefully, but did not dare to refute her words at all.
After dinner in the evening, Su Qingyun waved to her father, and the two father and daughter huddled aside and whispered.
Su Qingyun asked her father: "Dad, how much do you think it costs to buy a bicycle?"
Su Aimin thought for a while, "The prices of bicycles of different brands are different, but they are all around one hundred and fifty. But money is not the most important thing. The most difficult thing to get is industrial coupons. Without industrial coupons, it is useless to have money." "
Although Su Aimin only sells some mountain products and poultry, he has a thorough understanding of the prices of various commodities. He has been wondering if there is an opportunity to buy the next largest one.
He looked at his daughter and said, "Why are you asking?" You don't want a bicycle, do you? This can be a bit troublesome.
"It's nothing." Su Qingyun thought for a long time and still didn't want to trouble her father. Even if it was expensive, it was still difficult to get.
She thought about her savings, and found that they were no more than twenty yuan, which she had saved little by little over the years. More than one hundred yuan was an astronomical figure to her.
Is there any way to get a cheaper bicycle without industrial coupons? Su Qingyun began to think seriously about this issue.
The next day, Xia Qiu came to Su Qingyun to go to school with her. She asked casually, "Qiuqiu, can you ride a bicycle?"
"How can I ride a bicycle?" Xia Qiu thought she was asking a stupid question, "There are only two or three families in our village with bicycles, and one belongs to the brigade."
"Besides these and the town, I have only seen bicycles at my aunt's house. But that bicycle was an old car that my uncle bought from someone else. It made noises except for the bells. It was just a broken bicycle. It’s sixty or seventy yuan.”
Xia Qiu was still chattering, but Su Qingyun's eyes lit up. Yes, why didn't she think of second-hand cars? They were cheap and might not require industrial coupons, or there might be a more cost-effective solution. There are a lot of treasures in scrapyards these days. Many treasures in later generations were picked up from scrapyards.
Su Qingyun was thinking that she could go to the scrap collection place to see if there were any broken cars or junk cars. As long as there was a frame, it wouldn't cost much to find parts and repair them.
She kept thinking about this, so much so that she couldn't help but take out her notebook during class and start writing and drawing.
Ji Yue, who was reading the textbook with her, didn't pay attention at first, but when he saw the prototype drawn on Su Qingyun's notebook, he frowned. Is this... a bicycle?
What was in the notebook was not what he thought was a random doodle, but a complete structural diagram of a bicycle. The front end, body, every axle, and every part were all clearly drawn. When Ji Yue looked at Su Qingyun's serious look, it was almost astonishing. I wish I could draw all the patterns on bicycle tires.
Su Qingyun can also draw? Ji Yue was a little confused. In the past, in his mind, Su Qingyun was the same as other girls who showed kindness to him. If there was any difference, it might be that Su Qingyun was thicker-skinned and more difficult to deal with than other girls, which made him even more annoying. She dropped out of school. Afterwards, he breathed a sigh of relief.
But this time when school started, Su Qingyun came back as if he was a different person. His temperament had calmed down, he was no longer so annoying and noisy, and he was also...a little bit smarter.
These changes are a little too strange.
Ji Yue turned his pen and couldn't think of a reason, so he stopped thinking about it.
At noon, Xia Qiu kept urging Su Qingyun, "Hurry up, there is no room in the canteen."
"Immediately, immediately!" Su Qingyun put down the pen after finishing the last stroke and looked at the modified bicycle structure diagram with satisfaction. This was right.
"Let's go!" Xia Qiu pulled her towards the canteen.
By the time the two of them lined up to finish their meal, the seats in the cafeteria were already full. Su Qingyun looked at the only empty seat, pursed her lips, and raised her feet to walk over.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Xia Qiu held her hand, "You don't want to sit with Ji Yue, do you?"
"Do we have a choice?"
"I won't go, I'd rather eat standing up." Xia Qiu flatly refused. Ji Yue's cold eyes looked at her and she felt as if she was standing in the snow for nine consecutive days, freezing to death.
"It's okay, you see, he and I are still at the same table, so why don't we give him this little face?" Su Qingyun pulled Xia Qiu over.
After getting along for a day and a half, Su Qingyun also figured out that although Ji Yue looked a little cold, as long as you didn't disturb him, he would ignore you no matter what you did.
Su Qingyun pulled Xia Qiu to Ji Yue and said with a smile: "Classmate Ji Yue, can we sit here?"
Ji Yue glanced at Su Qingyun and said nothing.
Su Qingyun took it as his acquiescence and sat down on her own. Seeing her sitting down, Xia Qiu had no choice but to sit down.
"Eat quickly." Seeing Xia Qiu stunned, Su Qingyun urged her. She had already started eating as if nothing had happened. To be fair, the taste of the school cafeteria was not bad.
Seeing that Ji Yue really had no intention of paying attention to them, Xia Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and started eating. She wanted to leave quickly.
"Qiuqiu, are you in a hurry to go back after school? We can go shopping." Su Qingyun wanted to visit the scrap station.
"Okay, okay." Xia Qiu stuffed something into her mouth and agreed casually.
