Stringy Wind in the Ear - Chap 16
After school started, Song Yang’s study tasks became heavier. All classes in the third year of high school set up sprint tasks, and even day students had to study in school until 9:30 before they could go home.
Apart from morning runs on weekends, Li Xun hardly ever saw anyone else. As for the topic they talked about that afternoon, he had long forgotten about it because he was too busy.
There was a national sports meeting in July. The archery team was short of manpower and funds. He alone planned the training tasks for the team members, not only their physical fitness, but also their mental state. Since the competition was held in another place, and there were team members who were vomiting and having diarrhea due to acclimatization, he was like a spinning top every day, sleeping as soon as he touched the bed.
It was already mid-July when the competition finally came to an end.
He belatedly became concerned about Song Yang’s college entrance examination results.
The other party sent him a picture, and the admission letter had already arrived. The background of the letter was clearly printed with the T University logo.
At that moment, some memories that had been squeezed into a corner were reopened.
Miraculously, he could still remember that the afternoon sun was a bit hot, they were eating two delicious chicken fillet bento boxes, and on the other side of the river were camellias in full bloom.
But he didn’t know that this notice was inextricably linked to him.
Li Xun presented the most sincere blessing from an adult – a red envelope, and for the first time ever, typed in a cover title – Congratulations, little friend.
Song Yang accepted the red envelope and said, “I am no longer a child, I am an adult man now.”
Li Xun smiled and replied: [Okay, does this adult man plan to go out for a trip to relax? ]
Song Yang: [I am your dispensable netizen.jpg]
Song Yang: [You didn’t even check my Moments. I’ve already finished my swim and am back.]
Li Xun’s WeChat friends were too diverse and there was no quality content, so he turned off the Moments function. He clicked on Song Yang’s status and found out that he had gone to Chongqing with his family and had just returned on a flight yesterday afternoon.
Song Yang’s circle of friends is set to be visible to all, which is very rare in Li Xun’s friend group.
Since WeChat developed this feature, most people, except for micro-businesses and the elderly, will set a visible time limit for the past.
There aren’t many updates of Song Yang, but you can tell he has learned a little bit of photography. The composition and the brightness and darkness of the colors look natural and comfortable, and he can even cut some short videos.
In Li Xun’s eyes, this technique can be regarded as a talent.
There are also some out-of-place photos taken by Teacher Song. The shooting angles are all weird, but none of them are normal.
But the little guy is still quite photogenic, and the death-angle shot taken by his family couldn’t lower his appearance.
There is a photo taken at night. They were eating skewers by the brightly lit Hongya Cave. Under the night sky, his eyes were bright.
It would be even better if the security guard who stole the spotlight behind him could be photoshopped out. For the first time, Li Xun felt an inexplicable regret for someone else’s photo.
Before I finished refreshing my updates, another message came.
Song Yang: [My parents said they are going to hold a graduation banquet this weekend at Xiangxing Hotel. Are you free to come over for dinner? You can sit at the same table with me, hehe.]
Li Xun could feel a sense of enthusiasm between the lines, but things like graduation banquets only invite family relatives, and it would be embarrassing for him who had no status or position.
So I politely declined the child’s kindness.
But who would have thought that there was a shameless person in the family who came over to eat for free, and without his knowledge, he recognized Ms. Li Huiying as his godmother and Teacher Song as his godfather.
It’s so scary.
This story begins after the start of the senior year of high school. Li Xun returned to school and handed over the task of picking up and dropping off the children to Teacher Sun. However, Teacher Sun was often on duty, so he had to entrust it to his most trusted square dance partner.
Li Huiying fell in love with this little girl at first sight.
Not to mention her beauty, the key is that she has a sweet mouth. When people meet her for the first time, they praise her for her gentle smile.
gentle.
Li Huiying had never heard anyone praise her like this in her life. When her son Song Yang was a child, he always called her a witch.
With this comparison, she simply wanted to throw Song Yang to Li Xun, let him call him uncle, and then replace him with Li Chuzhi.
The “recognition ceremony” was held in May, on Li Huiying’s birthday. Song Yang was still in evening self-study and had not returned home. The old couple had not thought about celebrating her birthday, so they just ordered a bowl of noodles. Unexpectedly, Li Chuzhi came knocking on the door.
She had heard some news from Teacher Sun a few days ago, and took great pains to fold a bouquet of carnations that was not very pretty and sent it over. Inside the bouquet was a hand-painted greeting card with a piece of pinyin and Chinese characters written crookedly on it.
“Happy birthday to my beautiful aunt.”
Li Huiying was so touched by this unexpected gift that she immediately took her children to buy a cake for his birthday and asked Li Chuzhi if he had any wishes.
Li Chuzhi said honestly: “I want a mother, because other children in the class have mothers to pick them up.”
These words made Li Huiying cry, and she announced on the spot – I accept this child.
On the day of the graduation banquet, Li Chuzhi, as a special guest with a backstage background, was brought to the hotel by Li Huiying, served with delicious food and drinks, and sat next to Song Yang.
Whenever someone asks her who she is, Li Huiying always smiles and says, “My little daughter, isn’t she pretty?”
Li Guotao used tea instead of wine, and he and Song Jingshan clinked glasses. When Song Jingshan was drunk, he hooked his arm around Song Jingshan’s neck and said, “Jingshan, in terms of seniority, you should call me dad.”
Song Jingshan: “…”
In the afternoon, Li Xun rushed back from another place by high-speed rail. It was already past six o’clock when he got home, but there was no one at home. He called his father and learned that they were still having dinner in the hotel.
Perhaps because he was too happy, my dad was talking nonsense on the phone: “Xiao Xun – I have something to tell you, I have another son today!”
Li Xun was walking up the stairs and almost missed a step: “When did you leave your seed? Why are you acknowledging it now?”
Dad laughed on the other end: “Chuzhi has recognized Huiying as his godmother. From now on, you can call Huiying sister, and Song Yang is your little nephew! Hey – Xiaoyang, come here.”
Song Yang’s voice came from the other end: “What’s wrong?”
“Come on – talk to your uncle on the phone.”
Li Xun: “…”
