Chapter 6 genius
The recording time of the video is limited, Hu Die put down the phone, Jing Yu didn’t explain his actions, but stood still and asked, “Do you have any taboos? Or don’t eat.”
Hu Die thought about it for a while, and felt a little embarrassed: “It seems that I can’t eat a lot of things, but I usually eat less, so you don’t have to accommodate me.”
Jing Yu nodded and asked again: “Then what can you eat? We mainly eat seafood at night, and there are also some vegetables and mushrooms. Do you have anything you want to eat?”
“Then… scallops and mushrooms.” She didn’t dare to eat too much, so she chose two things that could be eaten in ordinary stew.
“Can you eat spicy food?”
Hu Die shook her head.
Jing Yue went into every detail: “Onion, ginger, garlic, etc., do you still have coriander?”
It was also the first time Hu Die heard that coriander should be put in the barbecue, subconsciously frowned and said, “I don’t eat coriander, everything else is fine.”
“Okay, you can continue to play.”
After Jing Yue finished asking, Hu Die saw him return to the grill from the window of the living room, and turned to talk to Shao Yun.
She retracted her gaze, turned on her phone, and the previously recorded video played automatically, and finally froze at the moment when the boy raised his hand to cover his face.
Photographed from this angle, his long and slender hands with slightly curved joints are particularly distinct.
Before the video started playing in a loop, Hu Die clicked the green send button beside her, and she quickly clicked withdraw once the sending was successful.
The video recorded by WeChat can be automatically saved in the album as long as it is sent.
Fearing that Jiang Man would ask, Hu Die sent another sentence of “wrong order”, but Jiang Man didn’t ask any more questions, and sent a “hmm” emoji.
It took a long time to prepare this dinner, Jing Yu would go into the house to get something from time to time, and every time he came in, he would bring a bunch of grilled mushrooms or scallops to Hu Die and Mo Hai.
When the meal was officially started, Hu Die was already half full, and she helped bring the baked goods to the table, Jing Yu handed her a tissue: “Don’t move, sit down, and be careful not to get your clothes dirty. ”
Hearing how he always treated her like a child, Hu Die couldn’t help retorting: “I’m not a child anymore.”
Jing Yue listened, without stopping to move his hands, and asked, “How old are you?”
“Seventeen.”
“Oh, isn’t that underage?” Jing Yue looked up, “In our place, all underage are children.”
Hu Die argued hard: “But I am already eighteen years old.”
Jing Yu made a “huh” sound, as if he agreed, but quickly added: “Children only talk about their age.”
Hu Die: “…”
Shao Yun laughed at the side: “Come, come, the children sit first, and just wait for the adults to bring you food.”
Hu Die couldn’t help them, so he could only be assigned to sit at the table with Mo Hai Yibo’s “kids” and wait for dinner.
Jing Yu put the freshly grilled strings of scallops and mushrooms on the empty plate in front of Hu Die. Seeing Mo Hai gurgling down the soda, he asked, “Have you finished your yogurt?”
“Ah, it’s over.” Hu Die picked up a bunch of grilled scallops, took a bite and said, “I’ll just drink water later.”
“It’s okay, let’s have porridge later.”
“Porridge?” Hu Die smiled, and said, “Pairing porridge with barbecue is quite healthy for you.”
Jing Yue glanced at her without further explanation.
Jing Yu cooked a small pot of porridge with scallops and mushrooms, and when the four of them sat down at the table, Hu Die vaguely realized that this pot of porridge might have been made for her alone.
Mo Hai only focused on eating seafood, Shao Yun and Jing Yu drank beer that had been chilled in the well water, and she was the only one holding a small bowl and drinking porridge.
A lamp was lit in the small courtyard, and moths swarmed under the lamp.
After Hu Die finished drinking half a bowl of porridge, a thin layer of sweat broke out on her forehead. She reached out and took a tissue to wipe off the sweat. Jing Yu put down the beer can and said, “The porridge is in the pot, serve it by yourself.”
“Oh.” Hu Die actually couldn’t eat anymore, but she didn’t want to refute Jing Yue’s kindness, so she got up and went to fill another half bowl of porridge.
The porridge was just cooked, and it was steaming. When Hu Die came back from serving the porridge, her fingers were burning red from the bottom of the bowl, and she raised her hand to touch her earlobe to cool down.
As soon as he sat down, a cool breeze blew over his back.
She turned her head and looked, only to find that the standing fan that had been swinging to fan the wind was now fixed, and most of the directions were facing her.
Hu Die touched her ears and subconsciously looked at Jing Yue who was sitting aside.
The boy was sitting under the light. After taking off the headband, the wet hair on his forehead fell down, and his face was slightly red.
When drinking, the person leans back slightly, the jaw line is clear and sharp, the Adam’s apple rolls gently, and the alcohol is smooth.
He put down the beer can, there was a hint of water on his lips, but he didn’t realize it, picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, leaned back with a smile.
Under the dim light, wandering and wanton.
Hu Die looked inexplicably hot.
Not only did the earlobe fail to cool down at this moment, but it became hotter and hotter. The stronger the wind behind him, the faster the heartbeat.
Jing Yu looked over abruptly.
Hu Die froze for a moment, then let go of her hand, pretending to be natural and stirring the porridge in the bowl with a small porcelain spoon.
The hot air may be able to cover up a bit of blush and fever.
“Is it very hot?” Jing Yue asked, then fished out a can of cold beer from the bucket of cold water beside him, wiped off the water outside, and handed it over: “Hold it to cool for a while.”
“Thank you.” Hu Die took it, and a thorough coolness spread from her fingertips instantly.
“I knew I would have eaten inside with the air conditioner turned on.” Shao Yun took a big gulp of cold beer, “It’s only June, wait until July and August, it won’t be crazy hot here.”
What did Hu Die catch: “Aren’t you from Rongcheng?”
“Ah, I’m not. I’m from the Northeast, and I’m a college classmate with Jing Yu.” Shao Yun asked, “You should be from the local area, right?”‘
“Well, I am.”
“You are seventeen…” Shao Yun calculated: “Then your college entrance examination this year, your grades are coming out soon, right? How about it, do you want to fill in City B?”
Hu Die shook her head: “I didn’t take the college entrance examination, so I dropped out of school.”
“Really.” Shao Yun took a sip of wine and changed the subject in a very blunt way: “Your hair is pretty cool.”
Hu Die couldn’t help laughing, stretched out her hand to touch the end of her hair, didn’t say it was fake, and responded casually: “If you want to dye it, I can introduce you to Teacher Tony.”
Shao Yun followed Le: “Forget it, if I really go back with this gorgeous blue hair, my coach will probably put me in the swimming pool and beat me up.”
What did Hu Die realize: “Are you an athlete?”
“Ah, doesn’t it look like it?” Shao Yun rolled up his sleeves and deliberately tightened his arms to show his superior muscle lines: “National first-class boxer.”
Hu Die was serious: “Did you practice boxing in the swimming pool?”
“Oh, I’ll go.” Shao Yun smiled and rubbed his face: “I’m careless, I didn’t fool you.”
Jing Yu couldn’t help complaining, “With your IQ, it’s fine if you don’t get cheated by others.”
“Can you talk?” Shao Yun bit the string and said, “Seriously, how did you and Jing Yue know each other? Did he quarrel with someone on the street and you came forward to help him out?”
“No, speaking of it, he saved me.” Hu Die glanced at Jing Yue, seeing that he had no intention of stopping him, and continued: “I accidentally fell into the sea at the beach a while ago, and he saved me.”
“Fuck.” Shao Yun’s eyes widened suddenly.
Hu Die thought that he had misunderstood his fall into the sea, and subconsciously wanted to explain, but Shao Yun didn’t seem to mean it.
He looked at Jing Yue, with a strange expression on his face, and asked, “Are you in the water?”
“Ah?” Hu Die didn’t understand and looked at them suspiciously.
Jing Yue didn’t want to say more, he got up and picked up the empty plate on the table, and said calmly: “You guys continue to eat, and I’ll go bake something.”
The table suddenly fell silent, leaving only Mo Hai, who didn’t know anything, immersed himself in his meal.
Shao Yun put away the foolish look he was joking about before, drank the last bit of wine in the can in silence, picked up the lighter and cigarette case on the table, and said, “You guys eat, I’ll go outside to smoke a cigarette.”
“Okay.” Hu Die nodded and watched him walk out of the yard, then turned to look at Jing Yue who was standing silently in front of the grill, not knowing what to say for a moment.
She looked away, and Mo Hai, who was eating, looked up and smiled at her. Hu Die also smiled, and handed him a tissue to wipe his mouth.
There were voices passing by outside the yard, and the yard was so quiet that only the sound of Jing Yue roasting things remained.
Jing Yu brushed the eggplant with oil, sprinkled it with sauce and put it on the grill, and made a garlic enoki mushroom with tin foil. After finishing these things, he returned to the table and sat down.
“Have you had enough?” he asked.
“Almost.” Hu Die stroked her stiff hair and asked, “Shao Yun…is he alright?”
“It’s okay, don’t worry about him.” Jing Yu saw that the porridge in her bowl was no longer steaming, and said, “Let me help you fill another bowl.”
“No, it’s still warm.” Hu Die stirred again, took a bite and said, “This temperature is just right.”
“Yeah.” Jing Yue didn’t say much, drinking his wine quietly.
Mo Hai enjoyed his meal, got up and ran around the yard with an electric mosquito swatter, Jing Yue ate with Hu Die for a while, and then got up to look at the things on the grill.
Mo Hai rushed to him excitedly, and Jing Yue tore a small piece of grilled eggplant for him, and he grinned from the heat, with a very expressive expression on his face.
Jing Yue was amused and said, “Go outside and call your Brother Shao Yun to come in for dinner.”
Mo Hai got the order and ran out excitedly, and Jing Yue warned again: “Be careful.”
The ground in the yard was uneven, in disrepair for a long time, and there were many potholes. Mo Hai ran out and came in quickly.
Hu Die looked up, but Shao Yun didn’t come in with him.
She didn’t want to ask more questions, and sighed lightly.
After a while, Shao Yun opened the door and walked in. He probably finished smoking half a pack of cigarettes, and there was a strong smell of smoke in the wind when he sat down.
Hu Die pushed the tinfoil enoki mushroom that Jing Yu had just brought to the table towards him: “This one is freshly baked.”
Shao Yun responded: “Aren’t you going to eat?”
“Well, I’m full.”
Hu Die chatted with him.
Jing Yu raised his eyes and looked this way, didn’t speak, and continued to put things on the grill, and soon he heard Shao Yun shouting: “Mo Hai!”
He was startled, and when he looked up, his heart almost stopped beating.
Mo Hai threw himself to the ground, tripped over the floor fan beside him, and fell forward as well.
The end of the fan blade just hit Hu Die’s shoulder, and then fell to the concrete floor again, making a “bang”.
Jing Yue didn’t care about baking anymore, and walked over in three steps and two steps, Hu Die was probably stunned by the smash, and when he pulled him to stand up, he didn’t feel any pain.
“Can you move?” Jing Yue moved her arm, “Does it hurt?”
“Fortunately, it didn’t hurt very much.” Hu Die looked at Mo Hai who was being helped up by Shao Yun, and said, “It just hit a small piece, and the fan is not heavy, so I don’t feel anything.”
“Sure?”
Hu Die moved her arm: “It really doesn’t hurt.”
Hearing what she said, Jing Yu didn’t feel much relaxed, and called Mo Hai over with a sullen face: “Apologize to my sister.”
“I’m really fine.” Seeing Mo Hai’s obviously frightened expression, Hu Die reached out and tugged at Jing Yue’s sleeve in desperation: “I’m really fine, don’t scare him.”
During the short time together in the evening, Hu Die vaguely noticed that there might be some mental problems in Mo Hai. Such a child is most afraid of encountering such a situation, and it is easy to leave a psychological shadow.
“You can’t spoil him, you have to let him know what you did wrong.” Jing Yu looked at Mo Hai, and repeated: “Apologize to my sister, and my brother won’t be angry with you.”
With a pale face, Mo Hai whispered, “Sister, I’m sorry.”
Hu Die reached out and patted the dust on his clothes for him, and comforted him: “It’s okay, sister is okay, you should be careful in the future, don’t fall again.”
“Hmm…” Mo Hai leaned over and blew on Hu Die’s shoulder: “Hoo hoo, my sister doesn’t hurt.”
Hu Die smiled: “It doesn’t hurt.”
When this happened, Mo Hai didn’t dare to do it again, he obediently sat at the table clasping his hands, the meal was messed up, and Hu Die felt a little bit sorry.
She waited until Jing Yue and Shao Yun had almost eaten before saying that she was going back.
Jing Yu put down his chopsticks: “I’ll take you back.”
“No, it’s very close. I’ll just go back by myself. You guys finish eating early and rest early.” Hu Die stood up, with a faint pain in her shoulder.
Jing Yue insisted: “It’s too late, I’ll see you off.”
Mo Hai probably also knew that he had done something wrong just now, so he wanted to make up for it, so he whispered from the side, “I’m going too.”
Seeing this, Shao Yun, who was the only one on the table who didn’t speak, quickly stuffed a chopstick of Flammulina velutipes into his mouth, then stood up and said, “Okay, don’t argue, let’s go together, let’s eat together.”
It was rare for Jing Yue not to refute him: “Let’s go.”
Hu Die had no choice but to keep up.
Going out of the alley, Hu Die received a call from Jiang Man, slowed down and walked behind the people to answer the phone: “I’m back, on the way.”
The boy walked in front, and the shadow fell behind.
Hu Die stepped on it for a moment: “Then come here, I may see you across the road.”
The shadow under her feet stopped moving, Hu Die raised her head, the boy stopped in place, looking back, she subconsciously moved her feet away from his shadow.
“I’ll hang up on mom first, and we’ll talk about it when we meet.” She hung up the phone and hurriedly followed: “My mom’s phone number.”
Jing Yu made a “hmm” sound: “I heard it, did she come to pick you up?”
“Um.”
Jing Yue didn’t say anything else. While waiting for the red light at the intersection, he looked at the girl standing beside him, and suddenly raised his hand and lightly pressed her shoulder.
This action was a bit caught off guard, Hu Die had no time to hide it, she sucked in a breath of coolness from the pain, and frowned.
Jing Yu withdrew his hand silently: “There are ashes.”
“…” Hu Die didn’t know if what he said was true or not, but guessed that he might already know that his shoulder was injured just now.
She was about to say something when a familiar voice came from across the road: “Yueyue.”
Hu Die looked up, waved to Jiang Man, then looked at the three people beside her, and explained: “My mother is here to pick me up.”
Shao Yun said “Oh” and said, “Then we’ll send it here, or we’ll have to wait for another red light.”
The red light was already counting down, Hu Die said: “Okay, I’ll go first, thank you for your hospitality today.”
“You’re welcome.” Shao Yun hooked Mo Hai’s shoulder and brought him to him: “Come, say goodbye to my sister.”
Mo Hai: “Goodbye, sister.”
“Goodbye.” Hu Die walked down the steps. In the crowd, she looked back, and the three of them had already turned and walked back.
The green light only lasted 30 seconds. Hu Die walked over quickly, and Jiang Man also came to meet her. He smelled her body and asked, “What barbecue for dinner?”
“Well, but I only ate some scallops and mushrooms, and drank two bowls of scallop and mushroom porridge boiled by Jing Yu.” Hu Die held Jiang Man’s arm, and the pain between her shoulder and neck was involved in her movements, and she couldn’t help hissing softly said.
“What’s wrong?”
“I accidentally got hit by something while walking.” Hu Die didn’t dare to move: “It hurts a bit.”
“I must be playing with my mobile phone while walking again.” On the main road, Jiang Man couldn’t go directly to see where she fell, “Let’s go, go back to the hospital and have a look.”
“Um.”
The night wind blows, and the figures of the mother and daughter gradually drift away.
Across the street, Shao Yun pulled Mo Hai to stop in front of a fruit stand, followed by Jing Yue.
Shao Yun picked out a watermelon for the boss to weigh, put his arm on Mo Hai’s shoulder and said, “I think Hu Die’s mother looks familiar.”
He glanced at the previous intersection, where a group of people had already changed.
The boss praised the watermelon: “Twenty-six.”
Jing Yu took out his mobile phone to check out, and asked Mo Hai to hug the watermelon, not paying attention to Shao Yun’s familiar question: “I’m going back.”
Along the way, Shao Yun was thinking about where he had seen Hu Die’s mother, but he could only touch a shadow and couldn’t remember.
Until at the door of the house, he saw Jing Yue’s neighbor’s child flying over on roller skating, his head flashed like lightning, and he raised his hand and patted his head: “I know! Jiang Man! Jiang Man!”
Jiang Man, a former figure skating athlete of the national team, has won the national junior women’s first group championship many times. Later, she and her partner Hu Yuanheng (the two married in 1997) won the national pair skating championship for four consecutive years.
After that, she also won many honors in the international arena. After retiring, Jiang Man and her husband Hu Yuanheng have been working in the front line of the national team. In 1998, she served as the head coach of the Xiamen Figure Skating Team. The husband and wife have contributed a lot to Chinese figure skating .
“I just said why it looks so familiar.” Shao Yun took out his phone and searched Jiang Man’s name on Baidu, and the first column on the page was Jiang Man’s Baidu Encyclopedia.
He clicked on the photo, and although it was a few years younger than the face he had just seen, it was clearly the same person.
“I didn’t expect Hu Die to be Teacher Jiang Man’s daughter.” Shao Yun then looked down at other related news, and when he saw one of them, he stopped abruptly.
Listening to him talking all the way, Jing Yu’s ears were about to explode. He stepped into the door and saw that he was still in place, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Hu Die…” Shao Yun’s expression was surprised and unbearable for a moment.
Jing Yue probably guessed something, and he stopped in place, as if hesitating between entering the door and continuing to listen, but soon he asked Shao Yun aloud: “What did you see?”
“Look for yourself.” Shao Yun threw the phone to him and entered the room by himself.
Jing Yu got the phone but was not in a hurry to open it to verify his guess. After about two or three minutes, he took the phone and sat on the threshold.
The moonlight poured down, and the moonlight fell on the whole courtyard, but the place where he sat was dim.
Shao Yun’s mobile phone didn’t have a password, and Jing Yue returned to the page he had browsed before, which was a news report.
The title is very literary, and it is called – “Hu Die” can’t fly over the sea, and the genius girl falls.
The author has something to say:
Note: I just found out that Little Butterfly’s mother and the real teacher’s name collided, and now they are all changed to Jiang Man.
