Chapter 14 Reasons to Study
Standing in Xinghua Square, Yi Yang couldn't help but be filled with emotions.
This used to be the largest square in the county, and many major events were held here. Yi Yang still remembers that when he was in elementary school, he and his playmates would go here to play every day after dinner.
There are several complete basketball courts in the square. Although square dancing has become popular these days, Xinghua Square is big enough. The aunts who dance in the square and the teenagers who play basketball are in harmony with each other. Everyone admires each other's love of sports.
Later, in the county planning, Xinghua Square was designed into a gymnasium. The name did not change, it was still called "Xinghua", but it attracted strong dissatisfaction from the county residents.
Because the gymnasium renovated from Xinghua Square is called "Xinghua Palace", and I don't know which weird leader came up with the weird name. When people from outside the city travel to Qinghe County, they all unanimously think that this is a foot bath center.
After Xinghua Square became "Xinghua Palace", Yi Yang never went to play there again.
Just when he was lost for a moment, a chubby figure appeared in his field of vision.
Seeing the familiar Zhang Bushou, Yi Yang's nose felt sore for no reason, and he felt excited and shouted: "Here!"
In addition to being fat, Zhang Bushou also has a particularly interesting eyebrow shape, which is rainbow-shaped. This makes his face look even more silly.
Zhang Bushou walked aside and stared at Yi Yang for a few seconds with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?"
"Your... hair is so ugly."
Yi Yang sighed softly.
Zhang Bushou took out a few pieces of red dates from his body, handed them to Yi Yang, and said, "Where have you been during this time?"
Yi Yang took the red dates, stuffed them into his mouth and started chewing them. His expression was as usual: "Ah, I went to the countryside to stay for a while, at my second uncle's house."
"Oh, you said you were going to buy something, what should you buy?"
Yi Yang said: "Buy some books."
Suddenly, Zhang Bushou showed a knowing expression and said excitedly: "Naruto has a new story!"
Yi Yang smiled without saying anything and walked to Xinhua Bookstore.
"But brother, didn't you like reading comics before?"
Yi Yang said: "Yeah, I don't like it now either."
"If you don't like it, why don't you buy it?"
Yi Yang turned to look at him and said, "Who told you I was going to buy a comic book?"
Zhang Bushou was slightly startled and blinked: "Then what do you want to buy?"
Yi Yang said nothing and continued walking forward.
"Damn it, it's so mysterious? Story club? Mini story? Ancient and modern legends? Don't you follow these magazines?"
"Is it the star-stealing Jiuyuetian?"
Yi Yang shook his head: "No."
Zhang Bushou thought for a long time, then suddenly his eyes widened with a shocked expression, and then he said with a shameful and obscene expression: "You...you don't want to buy that book, do you?"
Yi Yang had a strange expression: "That book?"
"It's... the kind sold at newsstands, it seems to be called... Playboy?"
Yi Yang was speechless for a moment and couldn't help but punch Zhang Bushou.
"No. You will know as soon as you come with me."
…
The two came out of Xinhua Bookstore. Zhang Bushou looked at Yi Yang with a complicated expression.
After hesitating to speak several times, Zhang Bushou couldn't help but ask: "What do you want to do by buying these books?"
They are all study materials.
Yi Yang sighed: "I really want to study hard. I think I can't go on like this."
Zhang Bushou had a weird expression, "I don't believe it. Tell me, what exactly stimulated you?"
Yi Yang knew that Zhang Bu Shou didn't believe that he really planned to study hard no matter what. He thought about it and asked Zhang Bu Shou: "Brother, do you still like Zhang Xuefen?"
Zhang Bushou's eyes widened immediately, "How did you know?"
Yi Yang was slightly startled: "Oh. Haven't you told me about this yet? Ha, I remembered it wrong, I'm sorry."
"ah?"
"That's what I think. If you really like her, you should study hard so that you can have a chance to be together."
"ah?"
"Think about it, Zhang Xuefen's grades are pretty good. If she enters the county's No. 1 middle school in high school in the future, but you can only go to the No. 2 middle school, wouldn't you two be in a long-distance relationship?"
Suddenly, Zhang Bushou's face turned red, mainly because the word "long-distance love" deeply stimulated him.
"What you said makes sense."
Yi Yang said: "Really?"
"Then that's why you want to study hard? But Ye Pingting's grades aren't very good either. Can she get into No. 1 Middle School?"
Upon hearing the name Ye Pingting, Yi Yang's expression changed slightly, and after a brief silence he said, "I don't like her anymore."
Ye Pingting was Yi Yang's girlfriend who broke up fourteen years later. Yi Yang started chasing her from the first grade of junior high school, and everyone knew about it. They didn't officially get together until the third grade of junior high school.
This time, hearing this name again, Yi Yang said that it was impossible not to have any inner fluctuations, but he knew clearly that this girl no longer had any weight in his heart.
But, it's still a little sad.
The reason for sadness is that it is familiar.
For Yi Yang, Ye Pingting is now the stranger he is most familiar with. Yi Yang understands all her habits, advantages and disadvantages. It is difficult to adapt to someone, and it is even harder to let go after adapting.
But at this time, Ye Pingting was still an ignorant junior high school girl, and had not done anything that would be unforgivable to him in the future. But when Yi Yang was asked to choose again at this time, his decision was firm and clear.
The most important thing is that people can change. Fourteen years is enough time to turn one person into another person. Yi Yang himself is very confused whether the current Ye Pingting is the one who has been with him for more than ten years.
Girlfriend of the year.
Zhang Bushou blinked: "Ah? You don't like her anymore? Didn't you say you only like her in this life?"
Yi Yang's expression was slightly startled: "Have I said such stupid things?"
Zhang Bushou looked at Yi Yang with contempt: "You forgot so quickly?"
Yi Yang sighed: "It took too long. I forgot."
"Obviously you only said that before the summer vacation. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Then you don't like her anymore. Are you in love with a girl with good grades?"
"No, I don't have anyone I like."
"ah?"
Yi Yang thought for a while and said, "Where do you think the best girl is?"
Zhang Bushou was slightly startled, "The best girl? I never thought about it."
Yi Yang said: "I want to find a girlfriend like this in the future. She must first be very beautiful, and then she must have at least one or two specialties, such as dancing, painting, etc., and then she must have a good tutor and be thoughtful.
Interesting. The most important thing is that she must be independent enough and have a sound personality."
Zhang Bushou was stunned when he heard this.
How could a junior high school student have such specific requirements for the opposite sex he likes? For a moment, Zhang Bushou looked at Yi Yang with an increasingly weird expression, "What's wrong with you today? You feel weird. The kind of girl you mentioned, in real life
Are there any?"
Yi Yang said: "Yes, there must be. But people flock together and birds of a feather flock together. The better girls will go to better universities. I want to find such a good girl. Do I have to be so good myself?"
Do I have a chance? So I want to study and get into a good university in the future."
Zhang Bushou was silent for a while, "You think too much."
Yi Yang sighed, knowing that his words were still too advanced for a junior high school student.
"But, I think what you said makes sense. It turns out that you want to find a better girl. So do you really plan to study hard?" Zhang Bushou thought for a while and asked.
Yi Yang nodded: "Really."
Zhang Bushou's expression was complicated: "No matter what you think, brother, I support you!" After a pause, he asked again: "But how on earth did you know that I like Zhang Xuefen?"
Yi Yang chuckled: "We are best friends, I guess."
"real?"
