After returning home that day, Xuezhu lay on the table and spoke for an afternoon.

When my mother told her that she would not practice piano, she would not do her homework, and she would not write. She looked like a lifeless puppet doll, always firmly maintaining a posture, looking blankly at the big banyan tree that had grown to her window outside the window.

Later, it suddenly started to rain outside, and the sun was still in the sky. It was a drizzling sun.

She didn't close the window either. The hot rain fell into the room along the leaves, wetting the floor. Song Yanping came in and saw that her face was like a fool and the window was not closed. She sighed and beat her twice, hurriedly closed the window, and threw the sentence "As lazy as your father", and then she simply let her do whatever she wanted.

Xuezhu stared at Yu, her eyes were filled with emotions, her face was hot, and her body seemed to be sick, her body was soft and weak, and she didn't want to do anything.

Later, Song Yanping couldn't help it anymore and stood at the door to warn her not to do her homework again and would not want to watch TV tonight.

Xuezhu then picked up the pen and spread out the draft paper. She seemed to be doing homework, but in fact she wrote Meng Yuning's name on the draft paper.

Why didn’t I find myself loving to write my brother’s name so much before?

No matter how many times you write, you won’t get tired of writing.

This confused state lasted until the next day.

At around 8 o'clock, Song Yanping asked her to get up for breakfast, but Xuezhu didn't move. After waiting for an hour, Song Yanping came and shouted again, but Xuezhu still didn't move.

"Children should go to bed early and get up early. Do you know if they don't grow taller in bed?"

This kind of words are similar to "will wet the bed when you are holding an umbrella indoors" and "playing with fire can make you wet the bed". They are used to deceive children, but Xuezhu believes it very much. Somehow today, even if Song Yanping said this, she still refused to get up.

Song Yanping had no choice but to bring breakfast in and let Xuezhu sit up and eat on the bed.

“I don’t want breakfast.”

"No! You must eat breakfast! Do you know if you don't eat breakfast is bad for your stomach? Do you think of stomach problems at such a young age?"

Xuezhu took a few bites, then lay down lazily.

Song Yanping was worried that she would get sick, so she found a thermometer and measured her temperature, but she didn't have a fever at all.

"Do you have to go to the piano class in the afternoon?"

Finally, Song Yanping couldn't scream and had to lie with her.

Xuezhu closed her eyes and thought to herself that her ears were finally quiet.

Unexpectedly, it was almost noon when Song Yanping came over to call her again.

Mom is really annoying.

Xue Zhuxin made a ruthless heart, covered her head, wrapped herself tightly in a ball, and shouted to her mother through the quilt: "You can't let me sleep for a while before it's time for class!"

The weather is warm now, so Song Yanping can't force her to get up with the trick of lifting the quilt.

Mom said angrily and smiled, "Lan Cycle, Brother Ning Ning is here to find you! I can't get it back! I'm sorry to let your brother see you are still sleeping in bed so late?"

Xue Zhu cut it and said, "Don't lie to me, Brother Ningning is also staying at school on Sunday."

"I really can't do anything to her." Song Yanping said helplessly.

This sentence didn't sound like she said. Xuezhu thought maybe she was complaining to her father. Then the next second, Wen Heqingyue heard from the quilt with a little smile: "Xiaozhu, I'm really back."

She suddenly opened her eyes wide in the darkness, curled up in embarrassment.

A hand gently nodded her head through the thin spring quilt: "Don't you get up yet?"

The place where it was pointed was like a small spark, hot and itchy.

At this moment, she wanted to lift the quilt and look him directly.

Another voice in my heart told her, "No, your heart will not be able to stand it."

But hiding in the quilt is not a solution. Xuezhu slowly lifted the quilt from her head, first showing her messy hair, and then her big eyes that were suddenly illuminated by the sunlight.

Meng Yuning's face was above her. Seeing that she finally showed half of her head, she blinked and smiled at her.

She murmured to brother.

“…Why are you back today?”

"Give you the classmate record," Meng Yuning said, "Zhong Zihan's class will not come back for the temporary exam today."

Song Yanping stood behind Meng Yuning and said, "Get up and brush your teeth and wash your face, and you're ready to have a meal."

"oh."

She sat up slowly and subconsciously reached out and grabbed her hair.

"Look at your hair that is as messy as a bird's nest. After washing your face, you will comb your hair." Song Yanping couldn't see it.

Xuezhu suddenly pursed her lips in embarrassment, threw away the quilt in anger, and complained to her mother: "I've known to say me all day long, mom, aren't you tired of saying it?"

"Do you think I want to waste my saliva? It's because you are disobedient," Song Yanping said, and finally urged, "Change your pajamas quickly, my brother is looking at you, what does it look like."

Mom finally went out.

Xuezhu looked down at the strawberry pajamas on her body, her chin suddenly became tight, and her nose and cheeks were red quietly.

Almost subconsciously grabbed the collar of my pajamas.

This slight movement happened to make Meng Yuning notice. Unfortunately, she saw the distinct collarbone under her open collar, her thin and slender body, but the slightly bulging area on her chest.

The boy's slightly drooped eyes were completely opened, and he quickly turned his head and urged softly: "Hurry up, I'll go outside and wait for you."

Then he got up and left the room, leaving her to change her clothes.

She didn't rush to change her clothes, got up from the bed and jumped to the full-length mirror behind the door to look at her current appearance.

Her long hair was covered in messy hair, her pale face yesterday because she slept too late, her loose and wrinkled pajamas, and the small vest and shoulder straps on one side of her shoulder were exposed.

She quickly fixed her collar, and didn't know if her shoulder straps were seen by her brother just now.

Bless him not to see it.

Through the body, the place where the chest could not be scratched was unbearable. Xue Zhu pounded her heart hard and warned her to be honest.

After changing his clothes, Xuezhu quietly looked at Meng Yuning and found that his face was as normal as he was helping his mother with chopsticks.

I probably didn't see her shoulder straps.

It was five minutes later that it was all done. My parents had already eaten two bites before they could wait for her.

Pei Lianyi teased her: "I finally can't get up after smelling the fragrance of the rice?"

Xuezhu ignored her father, grabbed a piece of meat and threw it into her mouth to chew it hard.

The TV was on, and Xuezhu didn't make a fuss about seeing what she liked for the first time, and had a quiet meal.

On the contrary, no one competed for TV with Pei Lianyi. He was a little absent-minded when watching the news for lunch. The news was broadcasting the grand occasion of Beijing. A few months before the opening ceremony of the Olympics, Beijing was already very lively. Whether it was a reporter, a random interview with local residents or foreign tourists, everyone had a smile on their faces.

Pei Lianyi looked at his wife, daughter, and finally looked at Ningning.

In this way, the four of them gathered together to eat, as if they were back when Xiaozhu had just started elementary school.

In a blink of an eye, Xiaozhu is about to graduate from elementary school.

At that time, the country had just won the Olympic bid, and everyone was looking forward to the arrival of 2008. They counted the days with their fingers and said they would take their whole family to Beijing to travel to watch the Olympics. In a blink of an eye, 2008 really came.

The man suddenly asked in a daze: "Do you want to go to Beijing to watch the Olympics?"

The three of them all turned to look at him.

"A big happy event in our country. Do Xiaozhu and Ningning want to join in the fun? You happen to be on summer vacation in August."

Song Yanping: "They are on summer vacation, and you have no vacation."

Pei Lianyi: "Just take a leave."

Song Yanping: "Just watch TV at home. There are only so many people in Beijing now. When August, will it be so crowded to death?"

Pei Lianyi: "Where are people traveling on a long holiday? If you don't want to take leave, stay at home to watch TV. I'll take Xiaozhu and Ningning to play."

Song Yanping immediately whispered: "I didn't say I won't go."

Pei Lianyi smiled: "Then just say you just go there? Why do you always argue with me?"

Xuezhu looked at the crowded capital on TV.

She also vaguely remembered that the year before elementary school, she sat in the living room with her sister Yueyue, brother Zihan, and their respective parents and parents in the living room to watch TV. When the foreign uncle on the screen pronounced "Beijing" in unstandard Mandarin, the whole family was shocked, and then an uncle shouted happily downstairs like a child.

"Our country has successfully bid for the Olympic Games!"

That night, my parents rarely urged her to go to bed at 8 o'clock. All the children and adults in the community bought firework sticks and played with them downstairs. The fireworks on the entire street were kept until midnight.

At that time, Xuezhu was too small to feel the joy of adults, but as she grew up, she gradually realized how glorious, proud and exciting it was.

"Go! I want to go!" Xue Zhu nodded vigorously.

She wants to go to Beijing to play.

Pei Lianyi nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, Xiaozhu has a vote," then he looked at Meng Yuning again, "Where is Ningning? Do you want to go to Beijing to play? Uncle invites you to play."

"Ningning had already been admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University at that time. It would be fine to go to Beijing in advance," Song Yanping suddenly became interested and asked the boy curiously, "Ningning, are you planning to take Tsinghua University or Peking University?"

It seems that for him, Tsinghua University and Peking University, it is not a question of whether he can pass the exam, but a question of which one to choose.

Meng Yuning really didn't think about this issue, so he shook his head: "I don't know."

"Ning Ning is a science subject, so it's better to go to Tsinghua University," Pei Lianyi analyzed carefully. "Tsinghua has a relatively strong science and engineering subject."
