The children of the Qiao family

Chapter 17

2
The teacher's face was as stiff as an iron plate, as if water could not seep in. Qiao Yicheng realized the seriousness of the matter.

Miss Qiao Simi's "first love" is a famous boy in the school.

He is famous because he is a boy who stayed two grades.

He is a handsome boy with two grades left.

Even the teacher said that he has a good skin, that is to say, this strict middle-aged female teacher also admits that the child has a good skin, not to mention that the little girl who was in the cardamom age was made to talk about it by Aunt Qiong Yao. The girl Qiao Simi?

The teacher also specially pulled Qiao Yicheng to the window, and pointed to a tall boy on the edge of the playground who was obviously punished to stand.

There are very few children who stand so beautifully even when they are punished. He is just like a tall and straight poplar.

In an instant, Qiao Yicheng had already found an excuse for his younger sister Simei to get rid of the crime in his heart, although this excuse could not be put on the table.

However, after Qiao Yicheng heard what the teacher said, he almost wanted to go over and break the branch of this young white poplar.

The teacher took out a thin old and worn-out book with two fingers from the drawer, and Qiao Yicheng's face turned yellow when he saw it.

The teacher said: They are not just dating after school. This, the boy showed it to Qiao Simei, and I saw it and took it away.Now I don't know exactly how much Qiao Simei has watched.This thing is a big poisonous weed!How many children have been killed!As far as I have seen, there is no one that does not go bad!This is too serious.

Qiao Yicheng only glanced at the book, "Girl's Heart".

Qiao Yicheng sighed in his heart: It's over, it's over, our Simei is over.

Qiao Yicheng was terrified. He remembered what he had heard about a young girl who was sentenced to death for hooliganism because she read that book and had sex with more than a dozen men.

Poor his confused sister!

After that day, Qiao Yicheng began to keep an eye on Simei. He and Erqiang Sanli took turns to pick Simei home in the afternoon. At noon, he insisted that Simei come to his school for dinner.A boy in his early twenties is always dragging a girl in her teens behind her. This girl is still a little naughty and somewhat weird. Qiao Yicheng can't care about it. He thought, anyway, this Zhang face has been lost, simply let him go.

The little girl Simei is like a spring, under pressure, she has unlimited creativity.Even if she watched so closely, she still had a way to date her little boyfriend. Once, during gym class, the two of them sneaked out and ran on the road for half an hour!They often exchanged love letters, and after Qiao Yicheng searched them out of Simei's schoolbag and read them, he patted the table and scolded "shit doesn't make sense".

When Qiao Yicheng was about to despair, Qiao Simei suddenly "broke up in love".

That beautiful repeater has moved on.

Qiao Simi was very heartbroken.

Qiao Yicheng has been following her and criticizing her, almost abusing her.

One night, Qiao Yicheng got up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, and saw Simei squatting in the yard burning something. The flame was small, shaking and trembling in the night, reflecting the face of 12-year-old lovelorn Qiao Simei, covered with tears and snot. One piece, like a piece of silk cloth, soaked in water and wrinkled.

Qiao Yicheng swallowed the voice he wanted to shout, forget it, he thought, no matter how bad it is, it's just a little thought, let her go.

What Qiao Yicheng didn't know was that Simei didn't even read a single page of "Girl's Heart".

There was no time.

That day, she just got this book from her boyfriend when she was a child, and when she couldn't help but want to flip through it in class, she was caught by the teacher.

But for some reason, the news that Qiao Simei had watched "Girl's Heart" leaked out and spread throughout the school.

Qiao Simi has become a dirty girl in everyone's eyes.

Her reputation was so bad that she found herself a virgin on the night of her wedding with a certain dismay.

The following year, Qiao Yicheng was a senior.

He continued his life of studying and working side by side.

He got a really good job.

Introduced by Teacher Wen.

The teacher said that his elder sister had a daughter. The little girl was sixteen years old and her grades were not very good, especially in liberal arts, Chinese and English. She was struggling, and she wanted to ask someone to help her make up.

Qiao Yicheng was very grateful. He understood that the teacher was trying to help him in different ways.

Wen's family is handsome, so there is no need for him to tutor other people's children.

Qiao Yicheng went there in trepidation.

Teacher Wen's sister works in a big newspaper office and has been promoted to editor-in-chief. Her family lives in a house assigned by the unit, and the conditions are quite good.

Qiao Yicheng's student is a girl with an ordinary face, thin and yellow hair, and a very thin figure.

Girls have a very elegant and unique name called Ju'an, Wen Ju'an.Qiao Yicheng had a strange feeling, as if this girl didn't suit her name well, but she didn't think deeply about why she took her mother's surname.

In addition to the mother and daughter, Teacher Wen's sister's family also has a man.

Country man.You can tell at a glance.

Maybe it was some kind of helper hired by the Wen family. There were only mother and daughter in the family, and there was no man. Sometimes they needed someone to do the rough work, Qiao Yicheng thought.Qiao Yicheng has seen him buy vegetables for his family and replace gas bags. In those days, there were not many people who used gas bags. Qiao Yicheng had seen him carry them up the stairs, with his hands on his waist, and it looked quite strong. I'm afraid that a man is not too young, he must be in his fifties.

Auntie Wen was very polite. If she got off work early at night, and Qiao Yicheng had to leave after class, she would always leave him for dinner, and the little girl Ju An would accompany her to eat in silence.The man was there sometimes, squatting in the kitchen to eat alone, occasionally making small noises.After a few days, I was never seen again.

Aunt Wen has high demands on Ju An, correcting her sitting posture while eating, and often reminding her in a low voice not to make a sound.

The little girl Ju'an doesn't look awkward, but actually has a kind of willfulness and stubbornness secretly.

Qiao Yicheng looked at her slightly pursed mouth, the intentional chugging noises she made while drinking the soup, covered her face with the bowl, and secretly smiled.

Children from good families and those from poor families are all the same at this age. They are like hedgehogs, timid but often covered with thorns, which reveal their timidity more and more.

At first, the little girl Ju An was not close to his little teacher, Qiao Yicheng. She looked at Qiao Yicheng with a blank face, asked her to write and then muttered, with her thin lips moving, taking advantage of Qiao Yicheng's If he didn't pay attention, he would fly over with a blank stare.Qiao Yicheng hid his eyes under his eyelids and took a refreshed look.

This child has a blood relationship with Teacher Wen whom he respects, so Qiao Yicheng has an inexplicable sense of closeness to her. They all say that his nephew is like an uncle. Unfortunately, this child has nothing in common with Teacher Wen, and it doesn't seem to resemble her mother at all. .

This pair of young teachers and students suddenly approached because of a little incident.

That day when Qiao Yicheng arrived at Wen's house, Aunt Wen hadn't left work yet, and the little girl Wen Ju'an was taking a bath. A wet voice told Teacher Qiao to wait through the door of the bathroom.

Qiao Yicheng stayed in the study. When he was free, he took out something from his schoolbag and began to eat it.

The little girl Ju An had finished taking a bath, and came over to see the normally serious teacher Qiao eating something, his cheeks were swollen and big, making his face a little deformed, unexpectedly childish.When he saw her, he subconsciously hid the things in his hand behind his back.

Ju An asked: What are you eating?
Qiao Yicheng was really embarrassed. He wished that what he was holding in his hand was an apple, a pear, or a sugar cane.

Qiao Yicheng blushed slightly.

Ju An said: Give me something to eat!

Surprised, Qiao Yicheng showed a raw sweet potato hesitantly in his hand, broke off half of it and handed it to Ju An, who took it and gnawed it sweetly, then smiled at Qiao Yicheng, his brows relaxed All of a sudden come alive.

Qiao Yicheng also smiled and asked: Do you like this?
Ju An took a mouthful of the food, and grunted, "I like it, but my mother won't let me eat it, it's indecent."

Qiao Yicheng rubbed his nose with the back of his hand and smiled.

Qiao Yicheng would bring some small things from time to time, and gave them to the little girl Ju An to eat during the make-up class. They were all things his sisters liked. He stuffed something into his mouth and chewed.

She began to look forward to Qiao Yicheng's coming to class every time, and whenever her mother said to keep Qiao Yicheng for dinner, Ju An was always very happy, but she didn't want to show that joy on her face, she pursed her mouth and lowered her head. laugh.

Like many girls in their teens, Wen Ju'an is contemptuous and curious about the young opposite sex. They can keenly detect whether a boy is harmless and gentle. The answer is obviously yes. Ju'an often bullies for no reason. Qiao Yicheng made up his mind all of a sudden that he would not bother with her, and got a little inexplicable happiness from it.

When making up lessons, Ju An would suddenly poke the back of Qiao Yicheng's hand with a pen, or paint a line of ink on his finger, or slap him on the head.

But she would sincerely wait for Qiao Yicheng to come, concentrate on doing the large number of test papers he prepared for her, and not complain at all.In fact, she is not a child who loves to learn.

She sometimes said to Qiao Yicheng: What's the use of learning this?I'm Chinese, so I don't want to learn English.There was a bit of arrogance and pleading in the voice.

Qiao Yicheng said: Everyone thinks English is important, and they are working hard to learn it.

Ju An asked: You too?

Yicheng said: Me too.

Ju An said briskly: Then you are an idiot.Ah, you are a fool.

Qiao Yicheng's heavy and boring days became lighter because of this little girl. Sometimes, he felt that she was like his sister, and sometimes, he didn't think she was.

On the day of Ju An's 16th birthday, Qiao Yicheng went to Aunt Wen's house for dinner at the invitation of Aunt Wen.But found that Ju An was hiding in the room crying.

Aunt Wen's face was a little gloomy, and a plate of good dishes and a big cake exploded on the table.

Aunt Wen knocked on Ju'an's door: Ju'an, come out, Teacher Qiao is here.

Ju An opened the door, sat down at the table with red eyes, but didn't move his chopsticks.

Aunt Wen asked: What are you doing?
Ju'an said: I'm going.

Aunt Wen said: No.

Ju An stubbornly said: I want to go!

Aunt Wen said: Eat quickly, we will go to the nursing home to see grandpa later.

Ju An said: Go call him first and then eat!
Aunt Wen said: I don't think it is necessary.

Ju An's face was tense: That's what you think, you always feel it for me, never let me feel it myself!

Aunt Wen picked up the bowl and ate in silence. Qiao Yicheng saw Ju An also picked up the bowl, and big tears fell into the bowl.Yicheng was extremely embarrassed, and couldn't help feeling sorry for Ju An, and didn't know what this girl was going to do.She had a stubborn and painful expression, as if she had something on her mind. Qiao Yicheng couldn't see children having something on his mind. He was willing to see his younger brothers and sisters being heartless. That's why he felt particularly sorry for Sanli.

After dinner, Qiao Yicheng gave Ju An a set of excellent essays as a gift. When it was handed to her, Qiao Yicheng felt that she had stuffed something into his hand.

After memorizing Aunt Wen, she unfolded it and saw that there was a row of extremely small words on it: Please find a way to take me out tomorrow.

Tomorrow is not a day for tutoring.

Before leaving, Qiao Yicheng said to Aunt Wen: By the way, Auntie, there will be a composition lecture at the Children’s Palace tomorrow, and a well-known teacher in the city will be invited to give you free tutoring. I want to take Ju An to listen.

Aunt Wen agreed.

The next day was the weekend, Qiao Yicheng brought Ju An out, and asked where Ju An was going, and if it was a place where his aunt was not allowed to go.

Ju An said: Brother Yicheng, you have to believe that I will not do bad things, and I promise you that I will not do bad things.

Qiao Yicheng said: Then you must come back here to meet me in two hours.I believe you are a good girl.

Ju An said: I am a good girl.

Ju An ran out two steps and then turned back, tugged on Qiao Yicheng's sleeve, and handed him a big golden orange.

Later, Qiao Yicheng recalled that the feeling for Ju'an may have started from the moment she took his hand and put the orange into his palm.He saw Ju An's hair and clothes raised up when she was running fast. She was carrying a kettle, which was bright blue and red, and knocked on her side when she ran.

For some reason, Qiao Yicheng felt that she was not on a date, but a farewell.She didn't tell him, but that's how he felt.

Qiao Yicheng felt that the two of them were like two lonely drops of water, rolling in their respective worlds, maybe they would meet, or maybe they wouldn't.

After that, Ju An often begged Qiao Yicheng to find an excuse to take her out.Gradually, Qiao Yicheng felt a little uneasy. He thought, in case Ju An made friends with someone bad or something happened, he would really be sorry for the Wen family.So, finally one day, he secretly followed behind Ju An.

Qiao Yicheng was no stranger to the place Ju An went to. It was a poor place similar to the narrow and small alley where Qiao’s family lived. About ten minutes by car.

Ju An walked through the alley, and Yicheng followed her silently.

Ju An entered a house with low eaves. The door of that house faced the alley.

Qiao Yicheng was so confused that he moved closer to the window and looked in.

Ju An threw herself into the arms of a man affectionately, and the man groped her neck.

That man is the helper of the Wen family.

Qiao Yicheng's mind exploded.
