Chapter 8 Childhood?

 Now the people around looked at the Mai father and son in even more strange ways.

What a good kid, why do you get scolded just for saying hello to your neighbor?

What kind of feudal dynasty family is this? No wonder such good children can’t stay at home for a whole day!

Everyone's eyes were not concealed, and Brother Mai realized that he seemed to have done something wrong.

Father Mai was still calm. He laughed and laughed with the neighbors: "Hey, the eldest brother is so excited when he sees his younger brother. Why don't you shout to go home for dinner?"

After that, he quickly took Brother Mai home.

As soon as the two men entered the courtyard, they found that the second son, who had gone home earlier, did not go into the house. Instead, he stood motionless in the center of the courtyard.

"What are you doing?"

Brother Mai turned to the front of Mai Fan and took a look...

Drink! No wonder, He Wenjuan, the daughter of the old He family who lives in the same courtyard as them, is back.

He Wenjuan was a pretty girl with two big pigtails hanging on her chest. Her face was red and a little excited. She pulled Mai Fan and asked, "Mai Fan, when did you come back? Why didn't you come in advance?"

Write me a letter?"

hehe……

In fact, the original Mai Fan wrote you many letters.

Mai Fan recited silently, but his face showed nothing. He smiled at He Wenjuan like a good-tempered person: "I wrote it! We haven't seen each other for ten years, maybe you have forgotten...

At first you replied to my letters, but in recent years, except for one or two letters from home, I have never heard from you again."

"I thought you had moved, so you didn't give me a new address.

"After all, no matter how deep the relationship is, it will fade away. The relationship we had in school... is just children's play.

"You really don't remember? I stopped writing to you three years ago."

"It turns out that you don't even know how long it has been since you received my letter? I've probably been erased from your memory and life."

After saying that, Mai Fan smiled relievedly at He Wenjuan: "But this is good. You see, we have all grown up and have long passed the age of being carefree."

"We are just neighbors now, so it's okay, so it will be easier to get along with us."

No, why is this different from the imagined scene?

The corner of He Wenjuan's mouth twitched.

This morning, when she went home, she heard from her family that Mai Fan, the second son of the Mai family, had returned from the countryside.

He Wenjuan was quite troubled when she first heard the news.

After all, she and Mai Fan grew up together.

In elementary school, people sit at the same table in the same class as before. In junior high school, people in the same class as before still sit at the same table.

At that time, Mai Fan was thin and fair, and the family backgrounds of the two families were almost the same.

As soon as we went back and forth, we started to have a good impression of each other.

For a while, He Wenjuan even thought that... Mai Fan, who listened to her everything, was still a good partner.

But since Mai Fan, a loser, was tricked into the countryside by her family and she took advantage of the resumption of the college entrance examination, He Wenjuan felt that the gap between her and Mai Fan was getting bigger and bigger.

There is a huge gap between her, a top student who was admitted to a normal university after repeating her studies for three years, and a mud-legged girl who has been working in the countryside for ten years.

In the letters she received later, you can see what Mai Fan wrote.

The grain yield is high this year, and there are too many leeches in the fields.

Where is there any common language?

Fortunately, because of the long distance and the fact that He Wenjuan began to control the number of communications with Mai Fan, she finally stopped communicating with Mai Fan with peace of mind after being admitted to college.

Yesterday, when she heard that Mai Fan was coming back, her heart was not at all disturbed.

In her heart, this neighbor who has lost touch with her and the city cannot reach her level.

Maybe after Mai Fan comes back, he will still be obsessed with her and get entangled with her, causing her a lot of trouble...

But from the beginning to the end, He Wenjuan never thought that Mai Fan would have this attitude.

How should I put it? It's very cold.

The man opposite was clearly smiling, but his eyes were very distant.

Mai Fan looked at her with no emotion at all, as if he were a stranger, maybe even worse than a stranger.

It was clearly written in his eyes that I am not even remotely interested in you.

This is a woman's sixth sense.

Or the feeling of a...popular woman who is often confessed and pursued.

How do you describe this feeling?

Unhappy, awkward.

But then I thought about it, it would be better if I didn't have any thoughts about her. Qin Mo's attitude towards her has been a bit cold recently. It might be a good idea to use Mai Fan to stimulate her.

Thinking of this, He Wenjuan became a little more gentle towards the childhood sweetheart in front of her.

"Mai Fan, you misunderstood! I didn't move, I lived on campus."

"I haven't told you yet, right? I successfully entered the Normal University."

"The time when we lost contact happened to be when I was sprinting for the college entrance examination."

"You also know that my academic performance has not been as good as yours since I was a child. If I don't concentrate, I may fail for the fourth time."

"Look at our age, if we fail again, we will be laughed to death by our younger brothers and younger sisters."

"So, Mai Fan, you won't blame me, right?"

Nope.

Mai Fan shook his head, with a fake smile on his face that could no longer be fake: "Juanzi, you have been admitted to college!"

"Then you must still have your high school textbooks, right?"

"How come it's such a coincidence? I plan to take the exam when I come back this time."

"It looks like June right now. I want to find a school to accept me first and take the college entrance examination with this batch of graduates as a loan candidate."

"If I pass the exam, I can get my high school diploma and university admission letter at once."

"It can also reduce the burden on the family. It's like killing three birds with one stone."

This is what I said...

What a big face this is!!

Not only was He Wenjuan standing in front of Mai Fan, but also Brother Mai standing beside Mai Fan, Mai's father behind Mai Fan, and Mai's mother who came out of the kitchen after hearing the noise, as well as the neighbors watching the excitement in the entire courtyard.

Everyone...were all shocked by Mai Fan's words.

Is Lao Mai's second son okay?

Are you going to work in the countryside to be stupid?

Is this the university he said he could get into?

Didn’t you look at the girl from the He family? Such a well-behaved girl took the exam three times before she was admitted to the Normal University?

How dare he say it!!

How could Mai Fan not know the reactions of the people around him?

He didn't care what the people around him felt about him. He took a step closer to He Wenjuan and said, "Say, what a coincidence. Juanzi, you still have your high school textbooks."

"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. Today is the day. Lend me your textbooks. I will return them to you when I am admitted to college."

After saying that, he tugged on He Wenjuan's pigtails very familiarly: "Let's go? Why are you still standing there? I remember that you like to put books in front of the window and pretend to be a good student."

"Ah, I saw it. Those neatly arranged books on the windowsill, are they your high school textbooks?"

"Come on, let's go get it."
