slow and quick

Chapter 11

The result of snow getting into the shoes and not shaking out was that when she got to the classroom and secretly changed her shoes, she was noticed by the sharp-eyed Ji Lin.

As soon as the window was opened, the north wind gushed in.

When entering the classroom, Zheng Man took off the scarf. As soon as the wind blew in, Ji Lin turned his head to remind him to put on the scarf, wait for the smell of the classroom to dissipate, and then close the windows before taking it off.

Then when he turned around, he saw Zheng Man holding his feet.

Ji Lin's first reaction was to stagger his eyes.

After staggering, I wondered again.

Why am I keeping my face away?It's not about changing clothes, what's so taboo about changing shoes.

What's more, there is no need to shy away from changing clothes, he even changed Zheng Man's clothes.

Then he turned around and noticed that the color of Zheng Man's socks was wrong.

Zheng Man is wearing brown-red socks today.

Ji Lin gave it to him.

Because the hat and scarf I wear are red, I want to make up the same color, which is auspicious.

Then there will be brown-red solid-color socks, one brown-red and one dark brown.

Zheng Man lowered his head, not looking at Ji Lin at all.

I also thought about changing it quickly, so as not to be seen by Ji Lin.

Just about to stuff her feet into the cotton shoes, Ji Lin said, "What happened to your socks?"

Zheng Man was taken aback, and his whole body shook.

He looked up at Ji Lin, stepped into the cotton shoes in a panic, and pretended to be stupid: "What happened?"

Ji Lin frowned, walked over, and grabbed his feet: "Why did you wear it in, show me."

Zheng Man was in a hurry: "No! Don't look!"

After struggling a few times, after all, his strength was no match for Ji Yan, so someone pulled off his shoes.

Ji Lin pulled it out very fast, the socks didn't come off with his feet, but stayed inside the shoes.

He grabbed Zheng Man's trouser legs and felt a little wet.

As soon as the feet were pulled out, I saw that the toes were red from the cold, and the toes were still wrinkled from the snow.

Ji Lin reached out and touched it, and it was indeed wet.

He frowned: "Why are you wet?"

Zheng Man felt guilty.

Dare not make a sound.

Ji Lin put down his foot, a little annoyed.

In the end, without saying anything, he pulled out his sock and took a look at his other foot.

The foot wasn't wet, it was just cold.

He took the wet socks to the radiator and put them on to bake.

He didn't speak the whole time.

Zheng Man was flustered by the quiet atmosphere.Called him softly: "Brother Lin?"

Ji Lin lowered his eyes, spread out the socks, and arranged them carefully.

Zheng Man was obsequious, like a little daughter-in-law, pointed at her finger, and whispered: "I was wrong..."

Ji Lin raised his eyes and looked at him, still feeling a little annoyed: "I told you not to walk like that, it will get your shoes wet."

Zheng Man had nothing to say.

After all, he shot himself in the foot with a stone.

He said guiltily, "I'm sorry..."

Ji Lin pursed his lips, his expression was a little cold: "Don't talk to me for an hour today, I will fall out with you for an hour."

Zheng Man: "?"

Zheng Man was at a loss: "...Oh."

Then Ji Lin really held back for an hour, ignoring anyone.

look steadily forward.

It's like there's no one around.

After an hour's time limit, he finally turned his head to look at Zheng Man.

Then there was a crackling training.

If you are like this, what should you do if you catch a cold? Does your own body not care about it?

As he spoke, he almost cried with anger.

Zheng Man stretched out his hand in a panic: "I was wrong, I really don't do this anymore, Brother Rin, don't cry..."

Ji Lin waved his hand away: "I didn't cry!"

It's true that I didn't cry, but I looked like I was about to cry.

Zheng Man was at a loss, not knowing what to do with him.

Ji Lin was angry all morning, and he didn't forget to bring the socks to Zheng Man after they were dry.

As an older brother, he is quite conscientious.

When school was over in the afternoon, the two of them went home together, and Ji Yan was still a little quiet.

Originally, Ji Lin usually talked a lot, but Zheng Man only catered to him from time to time while he was speaking.

Now Ji Lin stopped talking, and suddenly became so quiet that people were not used to it.

He got a notice from his mother at noon, asking him to call Ji Lin over for dinner at night.

As a result, because Ji Yan has been in a low mood, he has never found a chance to speak.

Now that school is over, I had to mention it to Ji Lin, but Zheng Man still had some doubts and didn't dare to speak.

He took a step or two and glanced at Ji Lin.

He was already walking very slowly, but after doing this, he suddenly became even slower.

Ji Lin was worried that he would not look at the road and would fall, so he kept paying attention to the roadblock in front of him.

Sure enough, Zheng Man didn't see it when he was passing the steps, and Ji Lin's "Be careful!" didn't win, he stumbled forward and managed to avoid falling - Ji Lin wrapped his arms around him.

Ji Lin was anxious and angry: "You don't look at the road, what are you looking at me for!"

Zheng Man's face turned pale with fright, and he subconsciously said sorry.

He looked at the angry Ji Lin, bit his lip, struggled for a long time, and finally said, "Would you like to come to my house for dinner tonight?"

Afraid that Ji Yan would refuse, he quickly added another sentence: "Mom asked me to call you, and she said she told your father."

Ji Lin froze: "Did you tell my father?"

He was puzzled: "But Dad didn't tell me."

Zheng Man shook his head.

He is only responsible for conveying, and the others do not know.

Although confused, Ji Lin still went to Zheng Man's house.

I thought about asking my aunt when I got to Zheng Man's house, or calling my father.

With that in mind, he followed Zheng Man into the door.

As soon as I entered, I heard the sound of someone talking and laughing in the kitchen behind.

Hearing the familiar voice, Ji Lin went to the kitchen without putting away his schoolbag.

He poked his head to look inside, and sure enough, his mother was here.

Ji Lin didn't think too much about it.

Both families do often eat together.

He called his mother, and then called Zheng Man's mother, auntie hello.

Zheng Man's mother smiled and said okay, let him put away his schoolbag and play with Zheng Man for a while.

Ji Lin hummed, and went to Zheng Man's room with his schoolbag on his back.

Zheng Man put down her schoolbag and was about to go to the living room.

Ji Lin walked in and asked him where he was going while putting away his schoolbag.

Zheng Man turned his head, pointed outside, and said innocently, "Watch TV!"

Ji Lin looked back indifferently: "Then have you finished your homework?"

Zheng Man; "..."

Certainly not.

I usually do my homework after watching TV.

This is one of the reasons why Zheng Man has to do his homework late every night.

Or rather, this is the main reason.

Writing slowly is secondary.

In the past, when he was not good at studying, he would write a little bit symbolically. Later, because "there is no way, he really can't write", he went to watch TV to rest his brain confidently, and then came back to write.

Now after Ji Lin's training, his homework writing time has been shortened.

And for more difficult questions, ask Ji Lin directly after going to school, and don't write at home.

The time saved is all used to watch anime with Elder Sister Xiaolu.

Ji Lin put down his schoolbag, took out the book, and looked at him.

Zheng Man hesitated.

Ji Lin looked at him steadily.

Zheng Man: "..."

He walked back disheartened, and then took out his homework.

Zheng Man's mother cooked dinner and went to the living room to call them, only to find that the two children were not in the living room.

Walking to Zheng Man's room, he opened the door and saw that the two little Doudings were sitting on one side, engrossed in their homework.

Zheng Man's mother raised her eyebrows: "So serious? Rare."

Zheng Man raised his head and cast a look of pleading for help at her.

Zheng Man's mother: "Pfft."

She smiled and greeted the two of them to eat: "Write after eating."

Ji Lin closed the book, stood up, and called Zheng Man to go out together.

Seeing Ji Lin standing up, Zheng Man was relieved.

He was afraid that Ji Lin would say that he would eat after finishing writing.

Although it is possible not to listen to him.

But brother Rin seems to be still angry.

It's not good to make him angry later.

They went to the restaurant and saw that the dishes were quite rich.

Zheng Man walked around the table, surprised: "It's all what I like to eat!"

Usually, of course, there are things he likes.

But "all" and "yes" are not the same.

Ji Lin didn't think too much, took a closer look and was very satisfied: "It's also what I like to eat."

So the two looked at each other and smiled: "Hee hee."

The dishes are all like to eat, so naturally I am very happy to eat.

After eating, they supported each other and walked slowly to the sofa.

Spreading out on the sofa, Zheng Man secretly glanced at Ji Lin, then picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.

Ji Yan turned to his side: "Look at the jumping dragon!"

Zheng Man's eyes lit up: "Yeah!"

He turned on the TV, turned to the children's channel, and the cartoon just started.

The two moved their buttocks and sat still.

Zheng Man thought for a while, and explained to him: "I was planning to watch this."

Ji Lin nodded: "It looks good!"

Zheng Man: "Yes!"

The two looked at each other: "Hee hee."

Very happy.

The adults over there are still drinking and chatting.

Zheng Man's father couldn't see it, so he reached out to take down the wine bottle, and looked at Zheng Man's mother with a headache: "Stop drinking, you've already had three glasses."

Zheng Man's mother clicked her tongue, disgusted: "What's wrong with the three glasses, is there a lack of these three glasses of wine at home?"

Ji Lin's mother was also booing there, saying that since tomorrow is a holiday, let A Fang drink some, Lao Zheng, you are really too serious.

Seeing this, Zheng Man's mother hurriedly said, "Hey! Hey! Look! Xiao Li said that!"

Zheng Man's father had no choice but to look at Ji Lin's father: "You take care of your wife!"

Ji Lin's father decides whether he is happy or not, and is very proud: "My wife is the biggest! It's my wife who cares about me!"

Also, his wife is the biggest, but because of this, he can't control his wife, Zheng Man's father who is often vomited blood by his wife: "..."

He gave a thumbs up: "Submit."

Then he took the wine glass from Zheng Man's mother's hand again.

Before she got angry, she pointed to the two heads watching TV: "See?"

Zheng Man's mother blushed from drinking, and looked at the sofa, confused: "What's wrong?"

"Your son!" Zheng Man's father reminded her, "Today's protagonist is your son! You are drunk here, and you will pass out later. Can you still sing your son's birthday song?"

Zheng Man's mother really forgot.

She was startled, and obediently put down her wine glass: "Okay, I won't drink anymore, drink it next time."

Then sat awake for a while, then walked to the sofa, sat next to Zheng Man, and touched his head: "Does Manman want to watch TV first or cut the cake first?"

Zheng Man was so suffocated by her alcohol that she backed away.

After hiding, he came to his senses and asked in confusion, "Cake?"

At this time, Zheng Man's father came over with the cake, put it on the coffee table, and said with a smile, "Why are you still in a daze? I don't even remember my birthday?"

Zheng Man: "?"

I really don't remember that.

Ji Lin was also stunned, looked at his uncle, then at Zheng Man: "Your birthday?"

Zheng Man was at a loss, blinking his eyes: "It should be... right?"

Ji Lin is in trouble now.

He didn't know that today was Zheng Man's birthday.

No birthday presents prepared in advance.

And today there was a cold war with Manman.

Just now, knowing that Manman didn't want to write, she forced Manman to do homework.

Ji Lin: "..."

Ji Lin panicked.

Think about it this way.

It's too unreasonable.

When the cartoon entered the ending song, Zheng Man's father had already inserted the candle and lit it.

Ji Lin's father stood over the switch, turned off the light with a snap, and several people sang birthday songs around Zheng Man.

Zheng Man closed his eyes and made three wishes seriously.

Opened his eyes, looked at the seven candles, thought for a while, and looked at Ji Lin: "Shall we blow it together?"

Ji Lin, who was already feeling guilty and warmed up, felt even more like an asshole, nodded guilty.

With a cry, the two blew out the candle.

The moment the candle went out, Ji Lin's father turned on the light in time.

So she pulled out the candle, and Zheng Man's mother carefully cut the cake.

The first piece is the chocolate brand with happy birthday on it, and the mango piece is naturally for the birthday star.

Zheng Man still wore a paper hat on his head.

After taking the cake, I obediently said thank you to my mother.

Made several adults laugh.

The second piece, full of strawberries, belongs to Ji Lin, his favorite piece.

Ji Lin took the cake, nodded and thanked her.

He took the cake but didn't eat it.

Looking sideways at Zheng Man eating gracefully, he puffed his face in confusion.

Zheng Man ate and ate, and felt the sight around him, so he looked at Ji Lin, wondering: "?"

Ji Lin looked at him seriously: "Manman."

Zheng Man innocently said, "Huh?"

Ji Lin waved at him: "Come here."

So Zheng Man obediently brought his head closer.

The adults were still sharing the cake and talking, talking and laughing, and didn't care about them.

When Zheng Man moved his head closer, his eyes were still on his mother.

Mom's face was a little red.

like peaches.

Zheng Man thought silently in his heart.

Then suddenly felt a soft warmth on the face.

Zheng Man was startled and turned his head abruptly.

Ji Lin, who had originally kissed him on the face, stopped and smacked his mouth.

Two people: "!!!"

Back away in a hurry.

Zheng Man froze, covered her mouth, and couldn't believe it: "You, why are you kissing me!"

Ji Lin's head also exploded, he covered his head, and shouted at Zheng Man with a blushing face: "Why are you turning your head away!"

The adults on both sides were interrupted by their arguing voices, and turned their heads to look at them, dumbfounded.

Both children have red eyes, crying or not.

The expression looks...

As if being molested...?

Zheng Man turned to look at his mother with a mournful face: "Woo... brother Lin, he kissed me secretly..."

Ji Lin exploded: "I didn't!"

He hurriedly explained: "I wanted to kiss your face! You turned your head around yourself!"

Ji Lin's father was happy: "Why? Hey, Xiao Lin, I have to say you, what? Kissing the face is not kissing?"

Ji Lin blushed, unable to explain: "No..."

Zheng Man was already hiding in his mother's arms and crying.

Ji Lin was pressed by his mother to apologize to his brother.

The younger brother didn't look at him, and buried himself in his mother's chest, beating and shouting, "Go away! Go away! Brother Lin is a stinky hooligan!"

He didn't beat it hard, and to adults, it was like acting like a spoiled child.

Zheng Man's mother laughed until her shoulders shook.

Ji Lin's father was still laughing at his son: "I'm calling you, stinky rascal."

Ji Lin was at a loss, and looked at his father and Zheng Man aggrievedly, feeling extremely sad: "I'm not a stinking hooligan..."
