Chapter 21 - menarche
In May, the afternoon heat in Yangyang City, Yunyang City, was steaming. Su Qin rode his bicycle through the wholesale market and went there to buy some flower seeds, white canvas and sewing tools.
She bought her schoolbag from junior high school, sewed it up, and carried it all the way to high school. It was quite naive.
The schoolbags on the market now are not only expensive, but also of poor quality. The popular diagonal schoolbags on the market are complicated in style and not very good-looking. Su Qin intends to make a simple and good-looking one, which is not childish and can hold a lot of things.
After Su Qin returned home, she used scissors to cut the required canvas into pieces, and then took the cloth and knocked on the door of Grandma Liu’s house next door, intending to borrow the sewing machine from Grandma Liu’s house.
Grandma Liu came to open the door, and when she saw it was her, she hurriedly welcomed her into the house.
Grandma Liu’s house has three rooms and one living room. When she entered, Grandma’s family was sitting on the sun loungers watching TV.
The granddaughter was lying on the coffee table, doing her homework and watching “Wulin Gaiden”, smiling “creeping”.
Grandma Liu tapped her granddaughter’s head with the fan in her hand: “Stinky girl, watching this kind of unremarkable TV while doing homework, what’s so good about it?”
Su Qin raised his eyes to look at the TV, and felt that the generation gap between him and the elderly was their youth.
She explained her intention to the grandmother, and Grandma Liu took her into the bedroom. Su Qin sat in front of the sewing machine with the canvas and started to fiddle.
The old grandmother was worried that she would not be able to use it, so she stood beside her with a palm fan. Seeing that the girl was skilled in the operation, she said, “Girl, not bad, the craftsmanship is so good, I will be able to find a good husband in the future.”
Su Qin smiled without saying a word and continued sewing.
Soon, a simple canvas satchel took shape. But because the canvas is too plain and has no pattern, I always feel that something is wrong.
Su Qin pasted the Mickey cloth he bought on it, making it lively as a whole, and straddled it diagonally on his shoulders. It was really like that.
When he got home, Su Qin cleaned up the inside and outside of the room, and asked Grandma Liu for a few cans, cut them into flower pots, filled them with soil, bought flower seeds, and arranged them in a row on the balcony.
It was six o’clock after work, Su Qin was too tired to cook, lay on the bed, and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
Su Qin dreamed of his past life.
She made a princess dress for the bag, and the four-year-old girl held up the hem of the skirt, circled in front of her, and asked her, “Mom, is the bag beautiful?”
“Beautiful, the bag is the most beautiful!”
The bag hooked her fingers at her, causing her to bend over.
She bent down, and the bag held her face with a pair of fleshy little hands, kissed her right cheek, and said in a sweet little milky voice, “No, the bag is not the most beautiful, Susu is. most beautiful!”
Susu was what Li Chuan called her, this little guy actually called her Susu too. People are big.
The bag’s words made her feel very happy, and she couldn’t help bending the corners of her lips.
But soon, the small pink gauze skirt of the bag started to catch fire, standing in the same place crying “wow”.
“Mom, the bag hurts, the bag hurts, can you blow the bag?”
The little girl reached out to her, and as soon as Su Qin held her daughter’s little hand, the girl became a pile of bones.
“Bag!”
Su Qin woke up from the dream, sweating profusely, his face was soaked with tears, and his chest was stuffy and painful.
It was late at night, and the room was eerily silent, as stuffed as a stove.
Su Qin took the fan from the head of the bed, pulled his slippers and sat on the balcony for a while, looking up at the sky, in a daze.
She misses her daughter, misses it, misses it.
Thinking of the bag holding her ear, she said in a soft and waxy voice, “Susu, Dad is not fierce, I want to become fierce and protect you in the future, okay?”
She rubbed her forehead on her daughter’s forehead: “You are a girl, how can you be fierce?”
“Susu, shall I tell you a secret?”
“Ok?”
The little girl grabbed her ear, leaned close to her ear, and said softly, “The bag will be your bag in the next life.”
Thinking of this, Su Qin laughed out loud, but the next moment he burst into tears.
Is she…isn’t she being too selfish? Because she was worried that the hidden conflict in her marriage with Li Chuan would break out, and that she would not be able to reach the end with Li Chuan, she selfishly refused to let the bag be born. Was she too selfish?
Su Qin shook his head and smiled bitterly, leaning the back of his head against the wall, looking up at the bright moon in the night sky.
Baobao, I’m sorry for your mother, my mother is selfish, and my mother is a coward. I dare not bring you into this world again.
Her voice was quickly swallowed by the night.
on Monday.
Su Qin rode to NTU. She followed the address in Li Chuan’s text message and found the laboratory in the Guangming Building of NTU.
When she got to the lab, she knocked on the door, and the three boys inside who were immersed in coding immediately looked up at her.
An inch-headed boy wearing glasses looked up at her and asked, “Who are you looking for?”
Su Qin said softly, “Excuse me, I’ll find Teacher Li.”
The boy helped his glasses frame and wondered, “Mr. Li? We don’t have a teacher named Li here. Are you looking for Li Chuan?”
“Well, I’m his student.”
“student?”
The three boys looked at the little girl at the door in unison. After looking at each other, the boy with glasses got up first, came out to greet her, and invited her in.
“You are Li Chuan’s student and also our student. Please come in.”
Su Qin walked in with the man with glasses.
Another boy with bangs brought her a stool, asked her to sit, and instructed the fat man behind him by the way: “Panda, hurry up, pour tea for the eldest’s students!”
The fat man named “Panda” immediately brought a can of iced black tea and put it in front of her with a “bang”: “Old college student, please drink tea! You’re welcome! Let me introduce myself, my name is Liu Weixiong, and everyone calls me Panda.”
The man with glasses was wearing a white shirt and spoke in a gentle manner: “Hello, my name is Zhang Yazhu, you can call me Lao Zhu.”
Liu Hainan flirted with the bangs that covered his eyes in front of his forehead, “Hello little sister, just call me Brother Chunchun.”
“…” Su Qin nodded at them: “Hello, my name is Su Qin, the same name as a historical celebrity.”
The man with glasses gently explained to her: “Don’t be afraid, we are not bad people. We share a dormitory with Li Chuan, both doctoral students at NTU. He goes out to discuss a project and may come later. You sit for a while, I Go and call him.”
Su Qin nodded at him.
If it wasn’t for the laboratory on the campus of NTU, Su Qin might not be able to sit still. After all, the three men here don’t look like good people.
Su Qin didn’t know these three people in his previous life. Shouldn’t they be Li Chuan’s friends?
Lao Zhu took out his mobile phone, walked out of the laboratory, stood in the corridor and called Li Chuan.
Two minutes later, he returned to the laboratory and said to Su Qin, “Sister Su Qin, the boss will go back to school in half an hour. He asked you to do the test paper for a while. If you have any questions you don’t understand, you can ask the three of us.”
“Okay.” Su Qin nodded at him, took off the shoulder bag and put it on the table, took out the pencil case and book, and started to write math and physics simulation papers.
Lao Zhu and Chunchun opened the notebook and continued to write code.
Panda went out for a trip, and when he came back, he was holding four sorbets in his hand, and one hand was handed out.
The panda gave Su Qin the cutest “doll head”, “Come on, sister Su Qin, this is the cutest one for you.”
Su Qin took the ice cream and saw three men with different styles of painting looking at her while biting the ice cream.
As he got older, Su Qin hadn’t seen a man eat ice cream for many years, and thought the picture was a little more beautiful.
Panda crossed Erlang’s legs, sipped sorbet, and gossips with Su Qin: “Sister Su Qin, how old are you? How can our boss help you with your homework? He is usually so busy, and the projects he does are a lot of money, so it’s not too bad Will I be so poor that I can make up for you?”
Chunchun glared at him, and said vaguely with food wrapped in his mouth: “Panda, how did you talk? Is the boss poor?”
“Cough cough.” Su Qin took a bite of the doll’s head ice cream, and his heart was cold.
She explained: “Mr. Li tutored me with my homework, which was a public welfare act.”
“The boss has a good heart,” Panda sat on the chair and poked Chunchun’s knee with his toes. “Chunchun, did you see that you didn’t agree with the boss and thought the boss was pretending to be B. What do you think? How kind-hearted they are.”
“Go, go, don’t open the pot and lift it up. Didn’t you look down on the boss at the beginning? Do you think he is small?”
When Chunchun spoke, the sorbet in his mouth was not swallowed, and saliva was sprayed on the faces of Su Qin and Panda.
The two were arguing when Li Chuan came back.
The man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, standing at the door with a computer bag over one shoulder.
He put the computer bag on Lao Zhu’s workbench, and while taking out his notebook, he said, “The project has been won, and everyone will have a lot of hard work in the future, so be mentally prepared.”
Lao Zhu stood up excitedly and looked at Li Chuan: “Really?”
“Yeah.” Li Chuan patted Lao Zhu’s shoulder and motioned him to sit down: “We’ll have dinner together tonight, to celebrate, and I’ll treat you. Everyone is busy first, and I’ll make up for the little girl.”
Holding the notebook, Li Chuan turned around and walked towards Su Qin, grabbed a bench and sat down next to her.
Su Qin ate the last bite of ice cream and continued to bury his head in writing the test paper.
Su Qin didn’t know much about the world of top students, nor could he fit in.
Li Chuan opened his laptop and habitually logged into Koukou.
Su Qin glanced secretly and saw the Doukou pet that was sitting on his desktop.
The chubby little dot circled around the computer desktop, winked at the master, and greeted him.
At first Li Chuan thought this little guy was annoying and naive, but later he thought it was cute. The naughty appearance of the little things on his desktop reminded him of his daughter’s bag.
Li Chuan noticed the girl’s eyes and asked her, “Do you have QQ?”
“Hmm.” She nodded.
Li Chuan pushed the laptop over to her, “Hang up your number, I’ll add you.”
At this time, everyone is still very keen on hanging buttons and keeping pets.
Su Qin nodded and logged into his trumpet account on his computer.
Panda is also chasing to add Su Qin, and Lao Zhu and Chunchun also add her one after another.
Su Qin found that apart from Li Chuan who was a little normal, the other three’s nicknames and paintings were indescribable.
Chunchun: The Shadow of the Sunset
Panda: The scar is healed, but the pain cannot be forgotten
Old Bamboo: Acacia turns into ashes
Su Qin somehow felt that…the style of these three nicknames was quite in line with them.
In the laboratory, Su Qin made a set of mock exam papers in one afternoon.
Four men divided the labor to help her change the test paper.
So, the style of painting in the laboratory became like this.
Panda: “Can this problem be solved in this way?”
Lao Zhu: “Sister Su Qin, although your answer to this question is correct, if you use this method in the exam, it will waste your time. Come, come here, I will teach you a simple method. ideas.”
Chunchun: “Hey, such a simple exam question is actually in the cloud? Hoohoho, I already said that it can’t be done in the cloud, it’s not as good as our No. 1 middle school in Siyang City.”
Su Qin: “…………”
Among the four, Lao Zhu is the oldest, 26 years old. Panda and Chunchun are 24 years old, and Li Chuan is 22 years old.
After staying in the laboratory for an afternoon, Su Qin followed four men out of the Guangming Building. It was already dark.
Li Chuan took them to a roadside stall outside the school to eat grilled fish to celebrate winning the project, and took Su Qin to eat something good by the way.
The little girl lost a lot of weight.
Su Qin went to the carport to push the bicycle out, followed the four men to the school gate, and said, “That… Mr. Li, if you celebrate, I won’t go. I’ll go home early to review.”
When Panda heard that the little sister was going to leave, he quickly said: “Sister, don’t go, you have to share our joy. Learning this kind of thing has to be loose and relaxed, don’t force yourself too nervous, you collapse yourself too tightly, would backfire.”
Li Chuan also said, “Well, together, I’ll take you home later, you’re alone, I’m not worried.”
Chunchun lifted the bangs on her forehead and said, “Don’t save money for Teacher Li, he has money. Together, we will let the panda drive you home later.”
The kindness was difficult to accept, so Su Qin had to go with a few “big brothers” to celebrate.
Roadside food stalls are very prosperous on summer nights, and the stalls are overcrowded.
Many college students drink here, and Su Qin, a “child”, seems a little out of place.
Li Chuan ordered two grilled fish, four bottles of beer, and one bottle of VV soy milk.
The store first served two plates of boiled peanuts and served them as a side dish for drinks.
Two plates of grilled fish were served, and the fish was covered with tempeh. Su Qin took a piece of fish and ate it with tempeh. The crispy fragrance overflowed from the tip of his tongue. The side dishes below were boiled in the soup, and every mouthful was soaked with the fragrance of tempeh.
The four men discussed the project, and Su Qin buried himself in eating, trying to reduce his sense of existence as much as possible.
Afraid that the little girl would be left out, Li Chuan led the topic to the high school and college entrance examinations.
As soon as the topic of the high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination opened, the other three men began to show their superiority and told Su Qin their history of academic dominance.
Su Qin was hit hard, and suddenly filled his stomach with iced soy milk.
At the end of this meal, Su Qin had a cramp in his lower abdomen, and a warm current flowed through his stomach, and then… a lyric floated in his mind:
“Blood-stained paintings…”
The grilled fish is over.
Li Chuan paid the money to come back, the others had already left the table, only the little girl was still sitting in the same place, motionless.
“Aren’t you full?” Li Chuan came over and asked her.
Su Qin coughed lightly. He really didn’t know how to say it. After all, Mr. Li is still a virgin now… It’s a little hard to tell about such a big aunt.
Su Qin’s physique is thin, and her nutrition has not kept up. Other girls came to the aunt when she was 12 or 3 years old, but she only came when she was 16 years old.
Today is her menarche, and she feels a lot of volume. It is summer, and she is wearing light-colored pants again. She estimates that as soon as she stands up, she will be seen by the panda standing behind her, which is very embarrassing.
Su Qin sat for a while, and when Panda and Chunchun left behind her, she twisted up and tried to stand behind Li Chuan.
Li Chuan noticed that the little girl was trying to hide back, and she deliberately pulled her clothes down, and covered her lower abdomen with her other hand.
Su Qin Su Qin coughed, hooked his hand at him, and whispered to him, “Mr. Li, come over here.”
The author has something to say: the first time I came to my aunt, it was the physical education teacher (male) who helped me borrow clothes. At that time, in the summer, white pants. QAQ
Have you ever raised a QQ pet? Is it still alive? I just went up and took a look, my pet is still alive… poof.
