Why is the Bright Moon Shining?

When it was dark, Xu Can followed his childhood memories and walked from the small park to the river, and then to the back garden. Half of my mind was spent noticing the changes in the scenery, and half listening to the gossip of those walking neighbors.

Even if the sense of belonging at home is very low, listening to the dialect of the hometown will still have a special sense of comfort.

After a round trip, I went back.

As soon as I entered the house, I found relatives coming. Two old ladies and an aunt were sitting in the living room chatting and chatting, while the little girl beside her was yawning boredly. Grandpa has fallen asleep.

"Hello, third grandma," Xu Can greeted with a smile as he entered the door, "Hello, Auntie Li."

Their family lives in a residential building opposite. Although they are distant relatives, they often move around.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a long time," the old lady and aunt who were called by her immediately stood up, smiled and said enthusiastically, holding their very hands, "Looking like this, really looking like this, the older I get, the more I look like! "

Xu Can smiled shyly.

She looked at the chubby little sister who was sitting beside her, who was so bored that her legs were shaking, and complimented other children along the way: "Xinyi is taller and more and more cute."

"I'm not cute," Zhang Xinyi laughed immediately when she heard the words. At the age of ten, she still had a round face, yellow-black, yellow-black skin, but she was very lively when she laughed.

She ran over and grabbed her hand with no recognition at all and said, "Sister, you are so beautiful!"

"These two kids are really..."

They came to visit after they had eaten.

Aunt Li obviously wanted to ask Xu Can. She took out the workbook and pencil case from her bag and stuffed them into Zhang Xinyi: "Your sister is back, can you ask her to take you to do your homework?"

"I don't want to do my homework..."

"You're so rare! Let my sister teach you your homework, your homework, eh, it's so bad that you don't even know you're going to blush."

Xu Can took the workbook and promised to teach her seriously. Take the little girl back to the room and teach her to do her homework.

Several exercise books were opened, and I wanted to turn to the place where I should write today, but turned to the end.

The homework that has not been touched for a few days in the winter vacation is brand new.

Xu Can: "…"

She also asked stupidly: "Did you not write the words directly on the book? Did you bring the book?"

Zhang Xinyi covered her belly with joy and smiled, and said, "Sister, you read that right, I did not write a word."

Xu Can: "…"

Xu Can suddenly remembered that this little sister is the devil of the world who can get 20% in the first grade English test. They went up to the tree to dig out the birds, and it is said that they also plucked and ate all the fruits from the century-old loquat tree, which symbolizes the school.

"Write your favorite first," Xu Can put the three exercise books in front of her and said with a stern face, "You choose."

"I also…"

"Like both? Or neither?"

"Neither."

Xu Can: "…"

The errands really can't be answered casually. She opened the math workbook and said helplessly: "Think about how to explain to the teacher when the school starts. You will be punished for standing on the blackboard."

She put the pen in her hand and said, "Write it, I'll watch it."

A thin workbook, in fact, there is not a lot of homework.

When Xu Can was in elementary school, she was stuffed with tutorial books by the teachers of various subjects, and she was left to open a small stove after school. She had to make a book in a few days.

"It's okay," Zhang Xinyi held her pen and told her seriously, "When the school starts, I will go to school in the morning to copy my classmates, just fill in the head and tail, and I will tear up the pages with many words in the middle. "

Xu Can: "…"

"Sister, are you stupid? Have you never done such a thing? The teacher actually doesn't read homework during winter and summer vacations. Have you always written it seriously?"

Xu Can: "Shut up and do your homework."

Zhang Xinyi: "Oh..."

The little girl speaks very funny, and her mind is not on learning.

Xu Can taught her for a while, but she was led astray for a while, then he reacted and taught her for a while.

"Sister and sister, tell you, my deskmate kept poking the boy in front of me with a pen and hitting him on the head. The boy didn't get angry at all, and the more he hit him, the more he laughed. Then I hit him after class, guess what? "

"Go and tell the teacher?"

Zhang Xinyi waved her chubby hands and raised her eyebrows, "He hit me! I hit him twice! I cried as soon as the table came back, and then when I saw him at the same table, I hit him with a ruler hehe... "

Xu Can: "…"

—

After teaching her homework for half a day, Xu Can found that the gap between people is really huge. She tutored Ren Xinyi from Professor Ren's family. The little girl was distracted when she was studying, but she was smart and could bring her back soon enough to keep up.

My little sister Zhang Xinyi is not only unintentional to study, but also good at taking Xu Can out of the way.

Running the train with mouth full, talking funny.

Xu Can occasionally didn't stare at her, glanced at the news on the phone, and when he turned his eyes, he saw her playing with her fingers, pouting her lips and holding the pen to her mouth, making cross-eyed eyes.

"…"

Xu Can finally gave up.

She took a pencil and helped her fill out the first few pages of her math homework with a few swipes. She sighed and said, "Go back and look carefully, erase the answer, and write it again yourself, do you hear me?"

"Okay." Nod his head like a chicken pecking at rice.

She remembered, took something out of the pocket of the red padded jacket, squeezed it into Xu Can and said, "This grandma gave it to me."

"She told me to wait for you."

"I told you not to tell anyone else."

Xu Can was stunned for a moment, looking at the cardboard red envelope with a Happy New Year written in golden letters dipped in gold powder that he subconsciously took in his hand.

When I opened my eyes, I saw two hundred-yuan bills inside, very new.

She stared at the money for a long time, her heart was complicated.

After a few seconds, she put the red envelope back into her hand, and said softly, "Here you are. Your grandma gave a red envelope to your sister, and that sister should also prepare a red envelope for you."

"Shouldn't it be your grandma giving it to me, and my grandma giving it to you again?" The little girl was innocent, but what she said was the most truthful, "they give it back and forth like this. I have to give it to my parents... this Isn't it your sister who gave it to you directly?"

Xu Can blinked, imitating her tone and saying, "Isn't it yours that sister gave you directly? Take the candy and don't tell your parents."

"But grandma asked me to give it to you..."

Zhang Xinyi stuffed it to her again, with a brisk tone, "I have candy at home, sister, just take it, eh."

Xu Can: "Hey!"

The two of them met with big eyes and small eyes, getting closer and closer, and finally both laughed "pochi".

Xu Can reached out and touched her head, "Okay, my sister will take you to buy toys in two days."

"Good!"

"What do you like to play?"

"Gun! I'm going to take it to school and beat people."

Xu Can: "Okay, I'll buy you a hula hoop to play with."

Zhang Xinyi: "…"

…

Xu Can's family is uneven, and his grandfather is not in good health.

Grandma was too lazy to toss and said that it was New Year's Eve, that is, she cooked two more dishes on New Year's Eve, and didn't mention anything else at all. Xu Can was also afraid that she would talk about her father, so he was relieved that there was nothing to do.

Forget that children get lucky money during the festivals.

But she is no longer a child. The third grandmother came to visit and gave her a red envelope after the year. Most of them thought she was pitiful.

At half past ten, my aunt knocked on the door and brought Zhang Xinyi home. The bustling child left, and the room suddenly became quiet.

Xu Can stood up, and the moon could not be seen in the pitch black outside the window.

Looking through the blue screen window, there is a lush osmanthus tree in front of me, swaying like plastic in the cold wind.

She was thinking about whether to continue tutoring Ren Xinyi when she went back to New Years.

Although she is very happy to make up lessons for that little girl, she may not be able to give her the fixed time each week next semester.

It's time to start preparing for the exam.

Her first grade in her major should be very stable in Baoyan, but before the official quota is set, she still needs to be fully prepared.

The phone screen lights up.

Xu Can picked it up and opened it, still thinking about choosing a mentor in the future.

Tong Mingyue: [Have you set a date to go back? ]

Xu Can "wow", the corners of his lips raised immediately, extremely happy.

I can't remember the first two minutes, my mind is still full of nostalgia, loneliness, daze, future, and so on.

Professor Tong, are you finally getting some time off?

She thought for a while and replied: [Probably...a week before the start of school. ]

Tong Mingyue paused for a few seconds: [Have the tickets been bought? ]

Xu Can replied in seconds: [Not yet. ]

When Xu Can saw her asking about the vote, he had a vague feeling in his heart, but he was not sure. Eyebrows twitched with a smile.

Wait, wait, hold the phone but haven't replied yet.

Tong Mingyue replied after a while:

[Would you like to go back two days early? ]

[I'll take you home. ]

"…"

Xu Can looked at those words, and his heart seemed to be hit hard. take you home...

Did she do it on purpose?

A smile spread across Xu Can's face, with deep dimples.

Biting his lower lip, his fingers quickly typed:

[What are you going to pass by me? ]

Tong Mingyue has a few business trips that she can or may not go to. Among them, the project evaluation will be here, and the date is quite suitable. She came to ask Xu Can, and then decided whether to come down or not.

Of course, there is no need to talk about it.

will only return yes.

Xu Can typed it down: [Of course it's good. ]

Tong Mingyue replied: [Okay. ]

Even if it is finalized.

"…"

Xu Can sat beside the bed, lay down, and smiled at the message box of their conversation.

Reluctant to end the topic here. I asked her why she came here because of the project, when she came, and what day she would leave.

Tong Mingyue: [I will come tomorrow. ]

Xu Can was a little surprised. The thing she wanted to do was quite simple. After listening to it, she understood that it was a short-term business trip that could definitely be over in one day. It's coming tomorrow, it's too early anyway.

Think of the time she said to go back.

Afraid that she was trying to accommodate her, Xu Can hurriedly straightened up and asked seriously.

Xu Can: [Besides the project, are there other things to be busy with? ]

Tong Mingyue: [Well, we agreed. ]

Xu Can was stunned.

Did they say anything?

She couldn't remember anything.

After typing a few words, I haven't had time to send it out.

Tong Mingyue sent two messages:

[Said last year. ]

[I will remember your birthday in the future. ]
