If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 939 See You Again

Su Xiaoqiang remembered the name of that orphanage, and it was hard not to.The House of Sunflowers.It’s not special, it’s even somewhat common. Orphanages with similar names can be seen in every corner of China, such as Sunflower Home, Lihuakou Home, and so on.

The names of those orphanages are always full of hope, and they are oriented toward allegorical things to wash away the haze represented by the orphanage itself. According to Chinese folk beliefs and behaviors, they are called "Chongxi", and use good things to wash away bad things. luck, in order to achieve the effect of curing "disease".

But no matter how happy or beautiful the meaning is, in the eyes of passers-by, those whitewashed or red or white buildings are full of lifelessness.The almost gray air that filters out the sunlight, and the cold air covered by a gray filter make people turn their heads and don't want to take a second look, or sigh with sincerity.

Su Xiaoqiang once passed by the orphanage in Binhai City, and by chance in the car, through the half-opened window, he could see the front yard from the rusty iron railings.Although the lawn in the courtyard was green, at that time she always felt that it looked like a desolate white ruin, and the naive and lovely children bloomed in the ruins like bright red flowers, but the more colorful they bloomed, the more desolate they looked.

Pluck them, those bright red flowers!Pick the most colorful flower and use it to decorate the walls of your home!Most of the people who go to the orphanage to apply for adoption think so.

She also asked the big boy beside her, you must have been a rare bright flower in that place before, right?But why is there no family willing to adopt you until the end?

The boy replied that there were some, and there were quite a few, but he refused them all.The law stipulates that the adoption of a minor over the age of ten requires the consent of the adoptee, but even if he is not yet ten years old at that time, when facing men and women who are inclined to adopt, the orphanage will act out of humanity Doctrine asked his opinion, and every time he answered in the negative.

Su Xiaoqiang didn't ask why, but he probably knew the reason.The boy also talked a lot about the past, at least in that short period of time, he was disgusted with the act of adoption.

When he was young, he often participated in the adoption activities of the orphanage. When a group of children sat neatly in the room and performed their talents, he always felt that those eyes were often so critical and uncomfortable, reminiscent of diners who picked lean meat in a butcher shop.

Love, yes, they usually sing about that as adoption for love.But you must know that it was the first time they met, and they didn't even know each other's names—and they were always attracted by bright colors. After they fell in love with each other, they would take the initiative to inject so-called love into this flower, right?

Love needs to be cultivated, so we choose the best to cultivate high-quality love, and the remaining dead branches and leaves will continue to stand out in the ruins until they are cut off and left outside the garden to fend for themselves when they are old.

Probably the reason, the cruel underlying logic is the reason why places like orphanages are filled with a sense of death. Those are the helpless death energy emanating from the rotten remnants of society buried under the soil, and those rotten The roots are also excellent nutrients, so more colorful flowers can be cultivated.

If it is Lin Nian, it is also the twin girls in front of Su Xiaoqiang.

"It's been a long time, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here." Lin Nian said.

At first, he stood on the sidelines of the beach volleyball court for a few seconds, and his eyes fell on Shao Nanyin and Shao Nanqin's faces for a long time. He was identifying them. After all, so many years have passed, and the children from the orphanage have also come out with Tingting and generosity. up.

But some things are destined not to change with time, it is an inexplicable thing, like the unique taste of memory, when thinking of the old man in the old house, he thinks of the burnt old photos under the heavy glass; When I think of girls at school, I think of the lightly fragrant yellow Gelan in the book.

Lin Nian's memory has always been very good, not to mention that just a day ago, someone put the photo album on his lap to miss those old days together with him, so it was only the first time seeing this pair of sisters. At a glance, those familiar memories came up like a spring.

That's why he said, what a coincidence.

"Yeah, what a coincidence. Nanyin and I haven't seen each other since we left the orphanage, right?" Shao Nanqin, the sister of the twins, began to recognize the big boy who came after hesitating for a while.

People are visual animals, and the changes of different people at different ages are very different. This can be seen from Shao Nanqin's efforts to build a bridge of memory in his mind.But her younger sister, Shao Nanyin, never seemed to have doubted the identity of the person in front of her since she called him Po Linnian.

That was a story nearly ten years ago!Shao Nanqin couldn't help but sigh with emotion, but her younger sister had always been very clever in certain things, and after the other party admitted her identity, she also proved that she was indeed the case this time.

"What a... What a coincidence, you guys are studying here? I didn't expect you to study abroad." Shao Nanqin couldn't help expressing emotion again. Looking at the boy in front of him, the reunion that he hadn't seen for several years, the time has passed and the situation has changed. It makes people feel emotional and don't know where to start.

"Actually, we met once two years ago, but not in the orphanage." Lin Nian said.

"Ah? Is there such a thing? Where is it? My memory is a bit poor." Shao Nanqin asked a little embarrassed.

But Lin Nian suddenly fell silent, probably because some words were left unspoken.

"Is it a night show?"

Lin Nian didn't take the initiative to speak after he came, but Shao Nanyin, who had been looking around looking for something, took the initiative to speak out, with a smile on his face, "The newly opened 'space' night club in the north of the city, I played a lot of games there after I dropped out of school. After working for a long time, Xiao Linnian probably passed by by chance and spotted me but didn't say hello, right?"

Lin Nian nodded. That's roughly the case. If you want to talk about more details, it is that the description of "passing by occasionally" is not quite accurate.

I remember that at that time he specially passed by the gate of the bustling and dreamy night market, and even went in to take a look, just because people in the small circle in the class mentioned Shao Nanyin's name in chatting, at first it was out of a little Curiosity, and then more of a slight concern for a girl from a place where she had socialized.

"Wait, you called him 'Xiao Linnian'?" Su Xiaoqiang's focus was slightly different, and he seemed to be a little concerned about Shao Nanyin's name for Lin Nian.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I don't seem to be young anymore. When I was young, I was used to being called in the orphanage. Both I and Nanqin are much older than her." Shao Nanyin stuck out her tongue and looked at Su Xiaoqiang apologetically, after all It's not a good thing to call a nickname similar to a nickname in front of other people's girlfriends.

"It's only about three or four years old." Lin Nian said.

"Sometimes the gap between three and four years old is a natural moat. Have you never heard of the three-year generation gap?" Shao Nanyin sighed, "A person's life is almost a lifetime between the ages of 18 and 22. Nanqin and I both It’s almost 23, and she’s an old lady who is dying. We’re already in line with life, and you’re still enjoying your youth on campus, isn’t that the gap?”

Lin Nian couldn't deny Shao Nanyin's sad spring and autumn.

"You guys knew each other well before?" Su Xiaoqiang looked at Shao Nanyin to the left and Lin Nian to the right.

"It's quite familiar. After all, he grew up in one place, and it was the most critical years. I remember when I was young, I snatched his snacks for dinner." Shao Nanyin said jokingly.

"Is there such a thing?" Su Xiaoqiang was stunned. She didn't really want to see the scene of Lin Nian being robbed of snacks. Such a cruel boy must have beaten ten in the orphanage, right?How could a girl snatch his things.

"I don't remember." Lin Nian turned his head away.

If it was someone else, Su Xiaoqiang might still believe a proper lie, but Lin Nian didn't believe it, because she knew that the boy had an exceptionally good memory.

"But the next day, he was taught a lesson by his sister, and even reported the matter to the dean. That was the first time you were locked up in the courtyard, have you forgotten?" Shao Nanqin couldn't help picking herself up Shao Nanyin raised her eyebrows and remained silent for her younger sister's old friend.

"Again, where's your sister? Why didn't you see her?" Shao Nanqin looked towards the parasol, only to see a slender boy and a Nordic girl with a good figure under the umbrella?
"This. His sister went on a trip, so she's not here." Su Xiaoqiang suddenly took over Shao Nanqin's topic.

"It's so strange. I always thought that the two siblings would never take a step apart. I really didn't expect her to stay in China, and the possibility of you studying abroad, but you are stuck together from eating to sleeping." Shao Nanyin said coldly Said that Nan Qin who was on the side wanted to gag her sister.

"That's all in the past." Lin Nian said lightly.

"Let's chat in another place. Exposure to the sun is not good for the skin." Su Xiaoqiang saw that the topic continued to evolve, so he took the volleyball from Xia Mi's hand and threw it to the passers-by on the beach who watched the beach volleyball. It's not good for them to keep chatting all the time.

The most important thing is that she observed Lin Nian's attitude towards these two people, and she didn't seem to be too repulsive. She also felt a little surprised when they reunited after a long absence. When old people meet again, they always talk about the past, and she doesn't mind being the one for the three of them to reminisce spectators.

"There's a lakeside bar over there, in the style of an open-air wooden house. Nanqin and I saw it when we came over just now, and we thought about going to have a seat, why don't we go now?" Shao Nanyin suggested.

"Okay, I'm just tired from playing, and I can't play the second round." Su Xiaoqiang agreed, and looked at Xia Mi, "Xia Mi, what about you? Continue to play volleyball here or go to have a drink?"

"I happen to be thirsty too." Xia Mi made an ok gesture, "But I have to dig Xiawang first, I'm afraid he will run around and bury him underground."

"I've already dug it out." Lin Nian glanced at her, then looked towards the parasol and gestured. After a while, Xiawang ran over and looked at the two identical photos of Shao Nanyin and Shao Nanqin. The strange face was a little dazed.

Shao Nanyin couldn't help leaning closer to tease him with that blank look, "Little handsome guy, are you dumbfounded? Can you tell which of us is the elder sister and who is the younger sister?"

Xiawang didn't answer her, but this made Shao Nanyin a little at a loss for what to say. Shao Nanqin on the side was secretly amused when she saw this. Since she was a child, she hadn't seen anyone who could refuse Nanyin's accusation, whether it was a man or a woman. Women would be overwhelmed by Nanyin's charm, but this beautiful blue-eyed boy in front of him seemed to be an exception.

"This is my brother, he's a bit shy of strangers." Xia Mi pulled Xia Wang in front of her and said embarrassingly.

"I think you are more like a sister." Shao Nanqin couldn't help but say.

"It's not just someone who said that." Xia Mi said.

"It's not a good thing to be afraid of strangers. You should get in touch with more people and talk more. It will benefit him a lot in the future." Lin Nian glanced at Xia Mi and said.

"She's my sister." Surprisingly, after Lin Nian finished saying this, Xia Wang spoke, and those blue eyes fixedly looked at Shao Nanyin.

"Wrong, I'm the younger sister, and she's the older sister." Shao Nanyin put her hand on Nanqin's shoulder and shook her finger at Xiawang.

Xiawang didn't speak anymore, but just looked at Shao Nanyin, those blue eyes were clear to the bottom, Shao Nanyin who was being stared at suddenly couldn't speak, and his expression was a bit strange.

"Since you were young, you were often considered the elder sister among sisters, right?" Lin Nian looked at Shao Nanyin and said.

"Yeah, compared to me, she's so much like my sister, I'm used to it." The sister Shao Nanqin who was held on her shoulders helplessly shrugged.

"I'm not an older sister. When I'm at home, I'm responsible for washing underwear." Shao Nanyin joked.

"But first there is the piano and then the sound, so Nanqin must be the elder sister. If you can't guess it from the temperament and appearance, then guess it from the name?" Xia Mi opened up a new point of view, and this sentence surprised Shao Nanyin. He took a long look at the girl.

"Young people's brains are easy to use." Shao Nanyin sighed, and pinched her sister's cheek again, "We old guys are about to be eliminated by the times, and someone interviewing a bank teller can be stumped by the interviewer's brain teasers Woolen cloth."

"Nanyin!" Nanqin seemed to lose face, after all, she was still a young girl in general, and it was frustrating to be called old in front of other girls.

"I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding, sister, you're always young!" Shao Nanyin cleverly apologized immediately, and her sincerity completely made her angry.

"Is that your college classmate? Do you want to ask her to have a drink together?" Shao Nanqin turned to the parasol and asked curiously while looking at Wei Lewa under the umbrella.

Lin Nian turned to look at Le Wa in Weiyuan, but the other party shook his head slightly and refused.

"She won't go." Lin Nian turned around and said.

"That's a pity." Shao Nanqin said.

"Then let's go directly, or wait for your two friends to come back?" Shao Nanyin stood on tiptoe and looked at the sound of running along the river beach in the distance amidst the booing. Many spectators are still taking pictures to commemorate the scenery, presumably they will be found on popular online videos in the near future.

"Go directly. If you want to run back and forth, it will take a lot of time. Send a text message to tell them about the location." Su Xiaoqiang bent down to pack the package next to the beach volleyball.

"At that time, I can tell you about the interesting things about your boyfriend in the orphanage when he was a child! Compared with me and Nanqin, he and his sister were celebrities in the orphanage when they were young! They have done a lot of surprising things!" Shao Nanyin said.
