He had never bothered to pick out gifts for people, so he followed the guide's instructions and walked to the counters. Knowing that the box in his arms was a book that he was going to return to the recipient, the guide suggested that he pack a pen to match it.

While recalling the situation at that time, Song Yezhi tore off a piece of blank paper from the sketch paper and wrote a row of words from top to bottom.

"Presented to Yi Qingwei on February 1, 1996."

Then add two aggrieved yet neat tiny characters in the corner.

"fail."

Maybe the shopping guide he met was the same one that his uncle's high school classmate met - he stuck the note neatly on the pen gift box, and then put the gift box into the padlocked box, thinking nonsensically.

The box was locked, and the emotions that had no place to go found a home.

Zhao Huanyu's vacation was really boring. He would always go to Song Yezhi's house with his schoolbag every other day, and occasionally bring Zhou Yeshan with him. They spent most of their time studying, and sometimes they would sit on the sofa together to watch movies, and the discs were often provided by Zhou Yeshan.

Zhou Yeshan and Song Yezhi have made great progress in mathematics. It is like holding a ball of tangled wool and being led by someone to find the end of the thread from the mess, and then they naturally follow the thread.

Yi Qingwei helped Song Yezhi get in through connections at No. 4 Middle School, but he didn't force her into the school. Song Yezhi had to take a separate exam at the beginning of the school year to test her level. As a result, Song Yezhi worked harder than Zhou Yeshan.

Zhao Huanyu was worried when he saw how hard he was working on math, so he said, "Xiao Ye, why don't you take a look at the English and comprehensive science exams? The exam papers for these subjects are also very difficult in our school."

Zhou Yeshan slammed the table beside him and said, "Didn't you skip the English test? I just happened to give him the test paper to test his hand."

Zhao Huan and Liangliang said, "That's great. You skipped chemistry class, too. Bring it here tomorrow."

Song Yezhi: “…”

After Song Yezhi finished both test papers.

Zhou Yeshan: “…”

Zhao Huanyu: "..."

Song Yezhi pointed at the exercise book in Zhao Huan's hand and said, "Can I continue doing math problems?"

Zhao Huanyu: "...Do it."

It was more than half a month later, on New Year's Eve, that Song Yezhi saw Yi Qingwei again.

"Grandpa, is this correct?"

Song Yezhi stood tall, pasting couplets on the doors of the houses. He turned to look at Song Yingjun, who was busy playing with the birds again. He was helpless and repeated, "Grandpa, is this pasting correct?"

"Ah, a little to the left."

The voice is young, crisp, and contains a hint of laughter.

There was a visitor at 11 o'clock in the morning, which scared Song Yezhi who was on the ladder. He was stunned and asked: "Uncle...you didn't drive here?"

Yi Qingwei stood in the sun, looking up at him: "Can't get in, stopped at the alley entrance. Move a little to the left, and get down quickly after you're done."
