Chapter 32 Episode 1: Snow White

"Wait a minute!" Zhan Yanfei called to stop Li Xiaozhi who was bending over and pushing the table, but didn't look at him, frowning slightly to observe the messy class. The provincial squadrons will observe the performances. The seventh class of four years has been preparing for a long time, and finally passed the preliminary competition. Under the guidance of the judges, the process and program are revised again, and then the endless rehearsals continue.Twenty or so boys, including Li Xiaozhi, are moving the desks and chairs in the classroom under Zhan Yanfei's command. First, they are tightly arranged in a row against the base of the wall to make room for them, and then spread out to form a circle. The room is full of desks and chairs. The sound of the legs rubbing against the concrete floor gave people goosebumps.

"What's the matter?" Xu Di couldn't help but muttered, "Is there an end? Tossing the dead doesn't pay for the life?" Li Xiaozhi stopped safely, wiped his sweat, leaned against the table and looked at Zhan Yanfei, waiting for new instructions, without showing any impatient expression. "Let's move it out." Zhan Yanfei rolled up the series words in his hand into a tube, drew a circle in the air, and pointed to the door, "Move the desks to the corridor, leaving only the chairs, and arrange them in a half circle around the class. " Everyone froze for a moment, Xu Di opened his mouth to say something, but he heard a sharp rubbing sound - Li Xiaozhi lowered his head and began to push the table out of the door.

The boys looked at each other in blank dismay, then lowered their heads and pushed the table towards the door, and the room was filled with loud noises. Yu Zhouzhou, who was squatting in front of the podium and rewinding the background music of the poem recitation, raised his head and looked at Li Xiaozhi's thin back, not knowing what it was like. -------------------------------------------------- --------------------- Stand under the stage lights for the last general rehearsal.Zhan Yanfei, as the squadron leader, announced the start of the squadron meeting, all stood up, and the four groups collectively counted, and then the squadron leaders ran in front of Zhan Yanfei one by one in the trotting posture of unified training after the broadcasting exercises, stood still, saluted the team, and said loudly, " Report to the squadron leader, there are XX young pioneers in Squad X, and XX people are present today, all present, the report is over!"

Zhan Yanfei returned the salute, and then the team leader turned back and trotted back to his seat again. It was such a simple process that was rehearsed five times. Yu Zhouzhou looked at Li Xiaozhi, who was being scolded by Teacher Yu, and squeezed the manuscript tightly. "Can't memorize just these two sentences? How many times do you have to stutter? You have delayed everyone for five minutes. There are fifty-seven students in the class, and each of them has five minutes. Do you calculate how much time you wasted in total? " In this case, Teacher Yu has talked about it since the first grade of elementary school.Everyone sat in meditation, and a certain child moved a little, so the time was extended by ten minutes—and a sentence was added, "You are wasting everyone's time, one person for ten minutes, the whole class is XX people, you do the math...", and then Harvest all the children's hatred for the culprit.

Time is fair, five minutes for 10,000 people is still five minutes. Yu Zhouzhou lowered his head, on the one hand to hide the slight disdain at the corners of his mouth, on the other hand, he didn't want to see Li Xiaozhi's shiny and sweaty forehead under the scorching stage lights. When she and Zhan Yanfei stood in front of the stage and sang together, reciting gorgeous series of words, leading one program after another, she always vaguely wanted to turn around. Among the classmates who were sitting neatly in school uniforms behind them, there was a person with a particularly vague face.

-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- Sometimes in the self-study class in the afternoon, Yu Zhouzhou would lie on the table and look at the sky outside the window after finishing his homework and being bored.In the direction facing their classroom windows, the moon in the afternoon can always be seen. "Look, it's indeed 'one touch', right? It's like the mark left by a brush accidentally rubbing it on." She whispered to Li Xiaozhi—the teacher corrected "one touch of the moon" as a typo in the third grade. ", always let Yu Zhouzhou worry about it.

Li Xiaozhi looked in the direction she pointed, first smiled in surprise, then retreated, thought about it seriously, and said, "It's better not to write like this during the exam.... The teacher said it's wrong." Yu Zhouzhou froze for a moment, then smiled, "Don't worry, I won't." It is amazing that Li Xiaozhi has never scored 100 points since the second grade.He will always make some innocuous mistakes, sloppy, wrong format... However, it is not so alarming that the teacher alone will reprimand or remind him. He works hard for cleaning or snow removal in winter, but he is not ostentatious enough - at least he is not like some classmates who kneel on the ground and hold snow in their hands and put it in the garbage bag in order to show their enthusiasm and willingness to work, nor when taking out the garbage. Deliberately bypassing the supervisor's teacher or director.So every time he summed up, he always received the same praise, "Other students are also working hard, and everyone is working hard."

Yu Zhouzhou doesn't like to talk, and Li Xiaozhi doesn't like to talk either. But once he wanted to express——Yu Zhouzhou could speak, while Li Xiaozhi remained silent. In fact, Yu Zhouzhou didn't know when Li Xiaozhi wanted to argue, or express loudly like himself to attract attention. Perhaps not everyone dreams of being a shape-shifting Britney Spears. All she knew was that Li Xiaozhi liked to collect the Three Kingdoms hero cards in Little Raccoon’s Noodles, but she couldn’t collect Zhao Zilong—one day she and Shan Jiejie were wandering outside the school gate at noon, and heard “Zhang Shuotian” and “Xu Jingying” After the booing, he lost his appetite and hurried back to work, and saw Li Xiaozhi lying on the table playing with his collection.

"I saw a stall selling Zhao Zilong's card. I don't know how much it is. Do you want to buy it? I'm afraid it will be gone in a while. The stall opposite the grocery store is owned by an old lady." Li Xiaozhi raised his head when he heard the sound, and smiled shyly, "No need, I like to collect by myself." "It's very slow. Maybe you can't collect it even if you eat crispy noodles to death." Li Xiaozhi looked up and smiled. "But I like it." That was the first time, and the only time, that Yu Zhouzhou heard Li Xiaozhi speak in such an assertive and self-centered tone.

But he likes it. -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- In the second semester of the sixth grade, in April, the first batch of willow trees in the north turned green. The hearts of the teenagers also turned green for the first time. I don't know who was the first to yell and say, "Sailor Moon", I only watched the transformation part-then a group of boys gathered around and laughed mischievously. I don't know who started to pretend to be a little delinquent, started to wear fancy clothes under the school uniform, took off his coat whenever he had the opportunity, and wandered in the corridors.

I don't know who started spreading the rumor that Zhang San likes Li Si first.Of course, not all rumors.The Bapo Alliance and Hachiko Organization of the Seventh Class insisted domineeringly that everyone must have someone they like—so many people were asked, who do you like in our class? It's like a form of identification.Pushing three blocks four, telling the truth or setting off smoke bombs, in short, we still have to say it. There are also people who are troubled by scandals, such as Yu Zhouzhou. However, when Yu Zhouzhou secretly slashed at the table with a knife, not knowing who she was cursing, she didn't notice Li Xiaozhi's envious eyes. An unsure envy. Yu Zhouzhou lay helplessly on the table and listened to the old gossip and new gossip being discussed over and over again in the class. In the physical exercise class, the female students no longer played rubber bands, and everyone who started to develop no longer liked to run around the playground, jumping rubber bands Whether it's jumping a big rope or not, the burden on the chest will always be painful and embarrassing, so they sit in small groups by the flower beds or under the wisteria trellis, and continue to chat, bursting out from time to time. I don't know whether it is excitement or shyness. screams. The boys even started to get distracted.They still play football - but aim worse than before, as if the goal is growing in a crowd of girls, kicking it through, and the screaming and cursing of the girls is more satisfying than the joy of scoring.Sometimes they would collectively push a certain boy towards his rumored girlfriend in a vicious manner, and he would never tire of it. As the sun set, his eyes gently enveloped Yu Zhouzhou, only Li Xiaozhi and her sat in their seats in a daze.Yu Zhouzhou suddenly felt lazy and didn't want to move, she didn't know why Li Xiaozhi didn't go out either. "Today, Bai Xue came to school to look for me." Li Xiaozhi's voice was very soft, extremely shy, and even hesitant. In the empty classroom, this sentence made Yu Zhouzhou, who was distracted, think he was hallucinating. "Uh?" "It's nothing." He stopped talking, stood up and ran out in a hurry. Snow White?Yu Zhouzhou tilted his head and stared at his back. Still so skinny. -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- But later, Li Xiaozhi, who had always been unknown, suddenly became a popular figure. Yu Zhouzhou didn't know how the name Baixue appeared in the discussions among the eight wives.Li Xiaozhi is suddenly very popular with boys, and his every move attracts people's attention.In those booing games that used to be, now there is another option. This option is called Bai Xue. "Hey, Zhou Zhou, do you know who Bai Xue is?" Shan Jiejie asked on the way home from school. "heard about it." "Who is that?" "have no idea." "Really? Stop pretending and tell me!" "I really do not know." "Don't you even ask? You are at the same table——" Yu Zhouzhou felt that Li Xiaozhi was a little strange.He was evasive to himself, and everyone's sudden attention made him a little overwhelmed, and he seemed to enjoy it.He became more cheerful, and his relationship with the male classmates became closer. When everyone discussed Sailor Moon or Slam Dunk Football Boy, they would also bring him along. When he commented that he likes Ami Mizuno, some people would scream, who is more beautiful, Baixue or her? "Li Xiaozhi", "Bai Xue", "Li Xiaozhi", "Bai Xue"... Finally, once, he was surrounded by it. Of course, there are also those who can't see it, and will say something bitter next to it-the name is very nice, and it must not be too long. Yu Zhouzhou never thought that Li Xiaozhi, who was blushing, would hit the person who spoke rudely - they rolled together amidst everyone's screams, grabbing each other's collar and hair, like two cubs. Was pulled away hastily, was called to the office by the teacher to reprimand, and was regarded as a hero by female classmates. Men who fight for women are attractive to women no matter what age they are. Even if, no one knows who Bai Xue is. Whenever someone asked, he would always answer, "Bai Xue may come to our school tonight, and we will go home together." "Which one is it?" "She's carrying a black schoolbag, Mickey's black schoolbag." When Shan Jiejie asked Yu Zhouzhou who Baixue was, Yu Zhouzhou would always answer, "A girl from another school with a black schoolbag—er, Mickey's black schoolbag." -------------------------------------------------- ---------- The system from elementary school to junior high school was suddenly reformed.They will draw lots, and only half of them will be able to enter the High School Attached to Normal University which is the counterpart of the Primary School Attached to Normal University, which is the best junior high school in the city.The rest of them will go to another No. 8 Middle School which is worse. The so-called lottery is actually a signal to parents.They began to operate, give gifts, and strive to get half of the places. Li Xiaozhi went to No.8 Middle School. He was not depressed, and said with a smile on his face, "Perhaps Baixue will also be divided into the eighth middle school." Yu Zhouzhou tilted his head and smiled, isn't it, that's great. -------------------------------------------------- ----------- In the third year of junior high school, Yu Zhouzhou passed by a magazine stand and bought a copy of Anime Times.Just as she was about to pay, a group of students rushing to get on the bus passed by, knocking her aside and stepping on someone else's foot. While saying sorry and looking up, the boy looked familiar. "Zhou Zhou?" He smiled. It's Li Xiaozhi.But it seems not.Li Xiaozhi never laughed like this. After chatting about the recent situation and the ranking of the city's model test, after a few rounds, I suddenly had nothing to say. Originally, they had very little to say. Yu Zhouzhou looked up at Yang Xu, who was all over the sky, and suddenly asked in a daze, "Bai Xue... is everything okay?" Li Xiaozhi was confused, "Who?" She just came back to her senses, but she was a little embarrassed, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "...Bai Xue." Li Xiaozhi has grown up a bit, although he is not considered a handsome guy, but his brows are clear and attractive, he stared blankly at Yu Zhouzhou for a long time, and then suddenly burst out laughing. Li Xiaozhi's smile doesn't look like Li Xiaozhi at all.Yu Zhouzhou smiled unconsciously, everyone has grown up. "You still remember." He scratched his head. "how?" The young man stared at some unknown place in the distance, with some self-mockery, some rejoicing, and a trace of inexplicable regret in his eyes. Zhou Zhou, there has never been any white snow. That was the only time he stepped out of the shy world of conformity.Bai Xue is a girl with fair skin, long hair, gentle and kind, and a light smile.She accompanied him through the restless but lonely beginning of adolescence, and even consciously showed a little fox tail when she couldn't bear the loneliness, and she won unprecedented attention. When Bai Xue is in his heart, he will not be lonely on the way from school.Because there is a gentle girl with a black schoolbag in my mind who listens to his thoughts all the way, listens to him talk about the school's trivial matters and his own views, and smiles slightly when she hears what she understands. When Bai Xue was booed by everyone, he was no longer lonely in the class. Yu Zhouzhou wouldn't know how everyone's attention in sixth grade changed Li Xiaozhi's silent, shy and vague life trajectory. She would not know how much she was jealous of her and them. Fortunately, Bai Xue appeared. Although, she has been away for many years.Bai Xue walked out of his heart and never came back. But he remembered her. How is Bai Xue doing?Yu Zhouzhou actually still remembered. Li Xiaozhi looked at her and smiled brightly.The sun shines through the elm leaves, leaving spots of light on his face, which are extremely dazzling. "Snow White is doing well," he said.
