Shi Mingwei's hands trembled slightly, and a feeling of sadness passed through his heart. Why should he bear the responsibility for his father's mistakes?
But what should he do? Who makes him his father's son? It is an eternal principle that the debts of the father must be paid by the son! What should he do...
Ling Xiaowei left, and Shi Mingwei didn't stop her this time. He knew that Xiaowei was determined, and there was no point in doing anything. The only thing he could do was wait, waiting for when she would calm down and when she could forgive.
Already.
When Shi Mingwei returned to the classroom, he changed seats with the others and became his deskmate with Ma Yue.
This made the new female classmate very angry, but there was nothing she could do about it. She couldn't hold him back if he wanted to leave, but it was a blessing to be in the same class as the school idol and feast his eyes on him.
Without Ling Xiaowei around, Shi Mingwei felt that his world suddenly became dim. Although he didn't like going to class before, he would still sit up straight and listen to the class in order to accompany Ling Xiaowei. But now, there is no one around him who can motivate him.
He was a man, so he simply stopped listening to this lesson and either slept or read his professional books.
What he is looking forward to most now is to get out of class. After the break, he can take the opportunity to go to the toilet. He passes by the class where Ling Xiaowei is currently in and passes by to see her. After class, he goes to the toilet. He passed by the toilet five or six times in the morning.
Second-rate.
But he didn't get to see Ling Xiaowei every time, but he was very satisfied if he could see her once.
Next, what he looked forward to most was when school was over at noon and it was time to eat, because the five of them ate outside the school, with five people at a small dining table. During lunch, he could see Xiaowei up close.
This makes me happier.
Unfortunately, Ling Xiaowei did not come for lunch today.
Ling Xiaowei and Miao Maimai went to the cafeteria together.
Now you don’t have to bring your own rice to the canteen. If you pay a little money every month, you can eat a big pot of rice.
It was truly a big pot of rice. Ling Xiaowei came with Miao Maimai. Miao Maimai received a box of rice. It was an aluminum lunch box and steamed rice. It was rotten, but luckily there were no insects.
Miao Maimai gave half of it to Ling Xiaowei.
Then he pulled Ling Xiaowei and ran to the cafeteria.
The so-called canteen is like a large warehouse. There are more than a dozen large round tables with no stools. A dozen students per table eat around the table.
There are two large wash basins on each table. This is much better than when Ling Xiaowei was in the first grade of junior high school, when there was only one basin.
One is vegetarian and the other is meatless.
"There is braised pork today, Xiaowei, hurry up." Miao Maimai grabbed the large spoon from another classmate without politeness, scooped up a large spoonful of meat, and poured it all into Ling Xiaowei's bowl.
Miao Maimai dug a spoonful of Chinese cabbage himself.
"Maimai, why don't you scoop out the meat?" Ling Xiaowei asked doubtfully.
From the glow in her eyes when she passed by and saw the meat, it was obvious that she really wanted to eat meat.
But Miaomaimai didn't scoop it up.
When the spoon came into the hands of others, each person took a spoonful, and no one scooped more. When the spoon passed around, there was no soup in the basin.
Then we divided the vegetarian dishes, one spoon per person, but people don’t like vegetarian dishes very much, so there is still a lot left in the basin.
When Ling Xiaowei saw this, she finally understood it, and felt moved in her heart. Miao Maimai had given her all her share.
Today it was Miao Maimai who asked her to come to the canteen with her, and Ling Xiaowei didn't refuse. She was originally afraid of seeing Shi Mingwei.
But unexpectedly, she ate Miaomaimai's portion. She felt very sorry and hurriedly put the meat in the bowl into Miaomaimai's bowl.
"Let's share the meal! I'll invite you out to eat next time," Ling Xiaowei said with a smile.
Miao Maimai and Ling Xiaowei smiled at each other and happily ate meat.
Miao Maimai was particularly happy that Ling Xiaowei came back as her classmate, because in her three years of junior high school career, Ling Xiaowei was the only one who did not look at her with disgust.
Her deskmates had all expressed their dislike for her to some extent before, for her dirty and torn clothes, for being unattractive, for being poor and polluting the air around them.
How could there be such a good person in this world? He was beautiful, good at studying, so outstanding, and had such a good personality. She liked and envied Ling Xiaowei. She also wanted to be Ling Xiaowei's good friend, like Qiaodan Dan.
, but when she thought of her own ugliness and poverty, Miao Maimai gave up the idea.
She doesn't deserve it!
Ling Xiaowei ate the big pot rice, which was delicious. The stewed braised pork and potatoes were so delicious. Even the fat meat she didn't like was so fragrant. It was fat and thin, oily but not greasy. The craftsmanship of the cafeteria master was really good.
Yes!
Even when cooked with green vegetables, it is very refreshing and delicious.
It’s delicious! She decided to pay the food fee next month and come to the cafeteria to eat.
When she returned from school in the evening, Ling Xiaowei explained her thoughts to others.
When Jordan heard that she wanted to eat in the canteen, he hurriedly said, "I'll go too."
"I heard that there are bugs in the rice in the cafeteria, Xiaowei, why are you... so hard to think about it!" Wang Haohao refused in his heart. In the past few years, his family's conditions have improved, and he has never eaten rice with bugs again.
If you let him eat this kind of food now, he will vomit.
It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!
"Then I'll go back and eat." Qiao Ruiyu said nonchalantly. He was close to home and could have gone back to eat at noon.
Later, I had a small meal with them because I was too lonely.
Now they are separated... Qiao Ruiyu's heart aches, but he won't show his discomfort and will always look indifferent.
"Boss, what did you say?" Wang Haohao asked Shi Mingwei.
Anyway, he followed Shi Mingwei, and he could eat wherever Shi Mingwei said!
Shi Mingwei was so worried that Ling Xiaowei was unwilling to eat at the small table together to avoid him.
"Whatever." Shi Mingwei said feebly, just let him starve to death. If he starved to death, would Xiaowei feel sorry for him?
He actually had more expectations in his heart.
"Let's go!" Ling Xiaowei ignored Shi Mingwei's casual remarks and called Qiao Qiaodan to go back together.
It's getting colder and colder at night. If we don't walk quickly, the road will be too cold to ride.
Ling Xiaowei almost wanted to drag out the electric tricycle at home and ride it, but after thinking about it, she decided not to do it.
People will laugh to death! She misses the electric donkeys in the future, the two-wheeled ones, which are fast and convenient.
After this year, it will be a brand new 1994. The pace of the times is constantly moving forward, and life will get better and better in the future.
Ling Xiaowei looked into the distance with an expectant smile on her face.
On the way back, we bid farewell to the noisy Jordan Dan, and welcomed Wang Haohao, who was full of jokes. Ling Xiaowei laughed from time to time, then fell silent after laughing, while Shi Mingwei was silent the whole time.
He felt that Ling Xiaowei was getting further and further away from him, and neither of them said a word during this whole journey.
