MTL - Butterfly and Whale-Chapter 8 elder brother
Hu Die was excited all night by the rare opportunity to travel far away. Before seven o'clock the next day, she had packed up and sat by the window sill waiting for Jing Yue's news.
"Can you come back at night?" Jiang Man put the medicine and a thin coat into her small bag, filled a small bottle of purified water, and tried the weight in her hand.
"Yes, I'll probably be back in the afternoon." Hu Die wanted to send a message to Jing Yu, but she didn't want to appear so eager, as if urging him, so she kept refreshing WeChat to see if there was any new news.
"All the medicines are packaged for you. Remember to take it when you order, and don't forget everything when you are playing." Jiang Man put the bag on the small table in front of her: "Got it?"
"I know, don't worry, I set the alarm clock to remind me to take the medicine." Hu Die got up and took Jiang Man's arm: "I just go out for a day, I won't run around, what should I eat and what should I not eat , I know what to do and what not to do.”
Jiang Man sighed and didn't say anything, but she was still very worried. After all, since she was hospitalized, she was at most walking around the hospital, and she had never traveled so far. But when Jiang Man thought of how happy she was last night, he couldn't say anything to stop her.
She said: "Come here and eat breakfast first. People probably haven't woken up so early, but you are the only one who is stupid enough to wake up so early."
Hu Die immediately stood up straight and saluted Jiang Man: "Obey!"
After halfway through breakfast, Hu Die received a message from Jing Yue. As expected, they had just woken up and asked her if she wanted to come over for porridge.
Hu Die put down the steamed stuffed bun in her hand, took a picture of the leftovers on the table and sent it.
Butterfly: I'm already eating, tell me when you're done eating, I'll go find you.
Jing Yue: OK.
Afraid of delaying the schedule, Hu Die speeded up eating, and waited in the ward for more than half an hour after eating, before receiving the second message from Jing Yu.
Jing Yue: come on
Butterfly: Immediately!
Hu Die took the small bag, greeted Jiang Man, and ran downstairs excitedly. When she was almost at the hospital gate, she saw Jing Yue standing outside the gate.
He was wearing the suit he wore on the day he gave her coconuts, except for a pair of black and white canvas shoes on his feet, and a white baseball cap covering half of his face.
The morning light was clear, and the banyan trees passing through the city scattered light, and he stood in the gap of the light, with a tall and tall body, which seemed to be taller than the branches.
Hu Die stopped and breathed slowly. When he was two or three meters away from him, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked over: "Morning."
"Morning." Hu Die approached with a smile: "Why are you here?"
"I'm afraid you can't find your way."
She reiterated again: "I am not a child."
Jing Yue didn't care about her rebuttal, and said to himself: "Let's go, they'll wait for us over there."
Hu Die had no choice but to keep up: "You told your classmates to bring one," Hu Die didn't think about how to describe the relationship between her and Jing Yue.
friend? It doesn't seem to count...
Jing Yu seemed to see her worries, and hummed, "I said it."
"What did you say?" Hu Die wanted to hear how he introduced his relationship with him.
"I said I would bring a child." Jing Yue looked at her, "They thought it was a child the same age as Mo Hai."
"..." Hu Die stopped and raised her hand to show her height: "In all fairness, have you ever seen a kid who is almost 1.7 meters tall?"
"Are you faster than 1.7 meters?" Jing Yue asked questioningly.
Hu Die gritted her teeth: "Isn't it like?"
"Yeah." Jing Yue nodded in approval, "It's really not like that."
Hu Die tried to calm herself down: "How tall are you?"
"Eighteen | Nine." After Jing Yue finished speaking, he paused, as if showing off, and said lightly: "But this was a year ago—"
In the middle of his speech, he was interrupted by Hu Die who suddenly approached.
Originally, there was still a distance of one person between the two of them, but now they are so close that they can even feel each other's breath.
Jing Yue froze in place, and slowly clenched his hands in his pockets. The scorching summer wind made him feel hot too.
Hu Die didn't seem to notice anything wrong, and patted his arm after standing up: "Stand up straight."
Jing Yu stared at the pattern on the girl's hair rope for a few seconds, then slowly turned his head and stood up straight.
There is a very faint scent of orange blossom in the wind, which seems to be close at hand and far away in the sky, but it is just carried by the wind.
Hu Die also stood up, raised his head, and saw the boy's sharp and distinct Adam's apple. He turned his head sideways, and there was a small pale mole on the side of his neck.
She blushed a little belatedly, but also had the courage to rush a duck to the shelf. After comparing her height, she raised her head slightly and said, "It's just a head shorter than you. Is your head thirty centimeters long? "
Jing Yu laughed abruptly: "Is my face a shoehorn?"
He turned his gaze and looked at the girl standing in front of him.
She changed her hair color to a regular one today, tied in two loose braids, and a few strands of hair hung down on her forehead and the side of her face, making her face very small.
He was also dressed coolly, with a lemon yellow plaid suspender top, light blue denim wide-leg pants, and a pair of white flat sneakers on his feet.
Under the sunlight, Jing Yue could vaguely see the small and soft down on her face, and he and her looked at each other not far away.
Her eyes were bright, and she looked at him seriously and persistently.
Jing Yue was suddenly fortunate to be covered by the brim of his hat, and no one could see his straightforward eyes. The second his heart beat faster, he looked away, raised his hand, took off the hat and put it on her head: "Let's go."
"Hey!" Hu Die adjusted the size of the hat, put it on again, and then followed: "I was going to take the hat, but I was too anxious to take it when I left."
"Well, isn't it there now?"
"Then what are you wearing?"
"Take you there."
"..." Hu Die said: "You should be 1.9 meters. I just measured it a while ago, and it's 1.69.7 meters. Rounding it up, it's 1.7 meters."
Jing Yu clapped his hands: "It's really tall."
Hu Die let out a long breath and stopped arguing with him.
When the two arrived at the meeting point, several of Jing Yue's classmates also came over, and the three boys were teammates in his swimming team.
Jing Yu nodded one by one and said, "Hu Wenguang, Li Zhi, Fang Jiayi."
There were two other girls, and he said again: "Li Zhi's partner, Jiang Linlin." The remaining one introduced himself: "I am Fang Jiayi's girlfriend, Zhou Lianyi."
Hu Die nodded one by one in response, "Hi, I'm Hu Die, Gu Yuehu."
"Hello, hello." Hu Wenguang smiled and said: "Then we are from the same family."
"Maybe." Hu Die also smiled.
Fang Jia said: "Didn't you mean children?" He looked at Hu Die, and he didn't think it had anything to do with the word "children".
Jing Yu: "Seventeen years old, not yet an adult, isn't it a child?"
"Yeah, I can't say no to you." Fang Jia said, "It's almost time to go."
"Let's go."
A group of people walk to the beach.
Jing Yu handed the unscrewed bottle of pure water to Hu Die, and took the small bag from her hand: "What did you bring?"
"The medicine, the jacket, and a bottle of water." Hu Die took a sip of water, then screwed on the lid and stretched out her hand to Jing Yue, beckoning him to return the bag to her.
Jing Yue pretended not to understand: "What are you doing?"
"Give it to me."
"Why, can't I take it?"
Hu Die sighed: "It's hard for me to talk to you, so you can take it if you want."
"When will you take your medicine?"
"Just take it before two o'clock." Hu Die asked, "Can we go back in the afternoon? I didn't bring the evening medicine."
"Yes, I can return in the evening."
"Where are we going to play, just go to the sea?"
"Go to the island by boat first, and they will go to the temple to offer incense."
The reason why this area is called Tan Island is because there is a small island on the sea five or six hundred meters away from the shore, and there is a century-old temple on the island - Tanhai Temple.
A hundred years ago, this temple still existed on land. Later, due to the movement of the tectonic plate, the low-altitude areas around Tan Island were all covered by sea water. However, Tanhai Temple survived here because of its high altitude, but it was lost for a long time. It is an empty temple where no one worships.
Until the Ming and Qing Dynasties, local officials sent troops to repair Tanhai Temple and extradited a group of monks there. Later, after several developments, Tan Island became one of the most famous scenic spots in Rongcheng, and Tanhai Temple gradually became famous all over the world because of its strong incense.
Hu Die is no stranger to Tanhai Temple. In the past ten years, every new year, the family of three would come to the temple to offer incense and make wishes, and come back together to fulfill their wishes at the end of the year.
It's just that Jiang Man hasn't brought her here since she fell ill.
Hu Die laughed: "Then remember to remind them that if it's just offering incense, it's fine, but if you make a wish, you will have to come back to fulfill the wish at the end of the year."
"What wish?" Shao Yun heard a few words at the tip of his ear, and turned around to ask.
"Aren't you going to go to the mountain to offer incense and make a wish? If the wish you made to the Buddha comes true, you must remember to come back and fulfill the wish."
"There's another thing to say." Shao Yun clasped his ears: "Then I'll offer incense, what if I don't make a wish?"
"That's whatever you want."
"Come on, did you guys hear that?" Shao Yun yelled forward, "Everyone make a wish to win the Olympic championship together, and come back together to fulfill the wish when the time comes."
Jiang Linlin laughed: "You are the only one who dares to say such big words."
"Hey, don't tell me, you don't have the confidence."
"You think everyone is like you."
Hearing this, Hu Die touched Jing Yue's arm and asked, "Are Jiang Linlin and Zhou Lianyi also from your swimming team?"
Jing Yue shook his head: "No, they belong to the diving team."
"No wonder, it doesn't look like it." The height of divers is generally around 1.6 meters, and Hu Die is half a head taller than them.
Jing Yue patted the brim of her hat: "Why are you just staring at her height?"
"Then where else can I stare, I'm not a boy."
"Huh?" Jing Yu smiled: "Then tell me, what do boys generally watch?"
"What else can I see?" Hu Die said, "Face, legs...chest."
"Do you think boys are too superficial?"
"Then let me ask you, when you usually see a girl, where do you look first?"
"I usually don't look at girls. I'm not a pervert. What are you doing staring at girls?"
"..." Hu Die clenched her fists.
Jing Yue moved two steps to the side knowingly.
When they arrived at the place where the yacht was rented, Jing Yue had contacted the staff in advance, and the driver was already sitting in the cockpit waiting for them.
He also had to go to the office to sign the waiver agreement and pay the money, returned the bag to Hu Die, and told Shao Yun: "Look at her and Mo Hai."
Hu Die was used to him treating herself as a child, so she didn't bother to refute, and said, "Got it, Brother Jingyu."
Jing Yue almost tripped over the rope on the ground: "Speak well."
Hu Die made a rare comeback, and walked over with a smile to prepare to board the boat.
Originally, Jiang Linlin and Zhou Lianyi wanted to help the younger sister, but who would have thought that she would just step up with a long leg and climb up with ease.
The two of them were still exchanging hands awkwardly. After Hu Die stood firm, she stretched out her left and right hands to hold their hands, and said sweetly, "Thank you sisters."
After finishing speaking, she asked again: "Isn't it right to call me sister?"
Jiang Linlin laughed: "We are the same age as Jing Yu, so you are right to call him brother and our sister."
"That's good."
Butterfly has a sweet voice, except that she doesn't look like a younger sister, everyone habitually puts her and Mo Hai together at other times.
They chatted for a while, and set off immediately when Jing Yue came up.
The speed of the yacht is faster than that of the cruise ship. Hu Die has not recovered from the distance of several hundred meters. The yacht has already docked, and the driver comes out from the cockpit: "Go down and play, I am near here, let me know in advance if you want to leave." Call me, if there is anything you don’t know, you can call me.”
"Okay, thank you master." Jing Yu asked for a cigarette from Shao Yun and handed it to the driver: "I'm sorry to trouble you today, master."
"You're welcome, go and play. If you want to offer incense, remember not to buy incense at the foot of the mountain. The master in the temple will give you incense."
"understood."
It was summer vacation at this time, and there were many tourists on the island. After Jing Yue told Mo Hai not to wander around, she looked at Hu Die again, and she raised her hand: "I swear, I won't run around, and I will obediently follow my brothers and sisters."
Jing Yue walked over, helped her hold her little finger and thumb in the palm of her hand, and said solemnly: "Swear a false oath, and be careful not to be struck by lightning."
Jiang Linlin smiled and said, "Jing Yue, is there someone like you who is an older brother?"
They all thought that Hu Die was really Jing Yue's relative or sister, and when they saw his nonsense, they all felt wronged for Hu Die.
Jing Yue sighed: "You are really amazing."
"what?"
"Just being so good at kung fu has turned my friend into your helper."
"It must be because I'm cute." Hu Die raised her eyebrows lightly when she saw him, and asked with a straight face, "Aren't I cute? Brother Jingyu."
Jing Yue stopped talking and stared at her.
This time he didn't wear a hat, and his eyes were straightforward and serious. Hu Die hadn't been stared at like this before, and slowly his face became hot, and his eyes began to dodge.
He smiled suddenly, and scraped down the brim of her hat with his fingers to block her view, and then said lightly, "Cute."
The author has something to say:
Depend on.
The little butterfly is so cute! !
