Chapter 137 Meeting Yu Jingfei Again
Fubao took three photos of Xiao Dingkun, then ran to the state-owned store at the east gate to buy a roll of Kael film. Then, she excitedly returned to the dormitory. When the people in the dormitory saw the camera in her hands, they all jumped for joy.
Li Juaner said excitedly, "I'll never say your brother Dingkun is too old because he's seven years older than you again. I think it's just right, just right! This age difference is great!"
If it were really a classmate, who would have the ability to get a camera?
The others agreed: "Li Juan'er is right. I've always said that seven years older is the most suitable age I've ever seen!"
Amidst his roommates' admiration, Fubao was helpless. "Hey, don't overthink it. Brother Dingkun never said that, and I haven't made up my mind yet. You guys scared me. I quickly paid for lunch today."
She knew that Brother Dingkun didn't need the money, but now she also realized that Brother Dingkun was really good to her. She hadn't figured out her own feelings yet, so she should give Brother Dingkun some return appropriately. She even thought about giving Brother Dingkun a gift to thank him for the doll he gave her.
Seeing her like this, everyone seemed to be speaking from the heart, and they all became concerned: "Fubao, what are you thinking?"
Wang Fenghua even acted like a big sister: "Tell me, I'll help you analyze it."
Fubao thought for a moment and said, "Brother Dingkun treats me very well, and I like him very much, but if we talk about dating, I——"
Everyone asked together: "What's wrong with you?"
Fubao frowned worriedly: "I don't know either. I can't explain it. When I think of this possibility, I get panicky..."
Panic? What does this mean?
Fu Bao sighed: "I can't explain it clearly. If I could explain it clearly, I would figure it out myself."
She couldn't tell how she viewed the brother Dingkun who loved and cared for her when she was a child, the brother Dingkun who had accompanied her through correspondence for many years, and the brother Dingkun who cared for her in front of her.
A brother like Shengtian, a relative, or a friend?
She must have thought so before, but now, she feels confused.
Now she had this little thought in her mind, and when he smiled at her, she would think of that little thought, and her heart would be confused, her chest would pound, and she would feel guilty.
Besides, she didn't know what he meant!
She doesn't know!
He has always been very good to himself, very good. Maybe it's just his habit, or maybe it's just his remembrance of the time he spent in the countryside!
Several roommates looked at her worried expression, but they looked at her with sadness and envy.
It is not encouraged to have a date in college nowadays, but it is not prohibited either. We are all young, and it is a waste of youth if we don’t have a date. Which young girl doesn’t want to receive a letter!
But no, they didn't receive even half a letter.
All the firepower seemed to be directed at Fubao.
Fubao also has a brother named Dingkun from outside the school who treats her so well that people are jealous of him.
Finally, Wang Fenghua sighed and said, "This is really a young person's worry. Don't think about it for now. Let's talk about taking pictures first.
When the topic of taking pictures came up, everyone immediately became interested again. Fubao also temporarily put aside the little worries of youth and took out the film he had bought: "There are a hundred color films, so I can take a hundred pictures."
Everyone was very excited and anticipating, and they agreed to share the cost of buying film and developing photos, and then settle the bill together later.
Let's talk about this. Everyone, look at me, I look at you. We don't have classes this afternoon, so what are we going to do? Of course, we don't want to go to the library, so we put on some fashionable and beautiful clothes, dress up beautifully, and go take pictures!
Except for Ding Weihong, the five people in the dormitory all wore the bell-bottom pants and waist-cinching shirts they had bought earlier. They all looked graceful and youthful. Even Wang Fenghua looked younger than before.
Everyone solemnly carried their cameras and came to the scenic area of the school...next to the campus lake.
It was still a little hot at this time, and there were not many people by the lake. Occasionally, a young man and a woman would walk by. Although they were walking a long distance apart, you could tell at a glance that they were a couple.
Fubao first asked several roommates to stand on a rock by the lake one by one, and then she started to pose for pictures of them. She used up all the photography skills she had just learned. She took pictures one after another. After taking a picture of each person alone, she took pictures of them in groups of three or two, and then took pictures in various poses.
A few roommates were happily taking photos when Fubao suddenly said, "We have to be frugal. This one shot costs as much as a plate of stir-fried cabbage in the cafeteria!"
…
The girls' originally excited and expectant faces suddenly froze. They thought stir-fried cabbage seemed to be delicious.
Wang Fenghua was the first to say, "Let's be frugal. We can't take photos all at once."
Li Juan'er: "Yes, yes, yes. Let's order five portions of stir-fried cabbage for everyone today!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and the hearty laughter echoed by the lake, startling the cicadas in the willow trees by the lake and attracting people around to look over here.
Just as this group of people were happily taking pictures, Yu Jingfei, who was not far away, looked over and recognized Fubao.
Yu Jingfei asked: "Isn't that your classmate Fubao?"
Yu Xiaoyue had noticed Fubao a long time ago, and she felt uncomfortable as soon as she saw Fubao.
Can you feel comfortable? Because of Fubao, she has been having trouble finding both substance and appearance lately.
She has always been excellent, and her family members are used to her excellence. So whenever something happens, they always ask, "Is Xiaoyue the class monitor?", "What ranking did Xiaoyue get in the exam?", "Was Xiaoyue rated as excellent?", and so on.
Her second grandfather also liked to show off her in front of a group of old comrades and colleagues, and she always lived up to everyone's expectations, always excelling and being one step ahead in every aspect.
This time, she failed to be rated as a model soldier in the military training of the Imperial University of Peking. She felt very ashamed and felt that she could not hold her head up in front of others. She was even embarrassed to tell her second grandfather that she did not get the title of model soldier this time.
Although her family did not blame her too much, she felt that her grandfather was disappointed, especially when her grandfather's old comrade-in-arms mentioned this matter, her grandfather seemed very disappointed.
She was very upset and didn't understand why she couldn't compare to Fubao and why she couldn't march as well as her?
In fact, she didn't ask Tan Xiangqian to do that thing, but she just expressed her dissatisfaction with Fubao. Tan Xiangqian has always been a person who likes to please her. When she heard that she was dissatisfied with Fubao and even mentioned that idea, she naturally stopped him.
She didn't want anyone to do this.
As a result, she did it and even exposed herself. This is very infuriating.
Fortunately, Tan Xiangqian had always been afraid of her and flattered her in every way. She said a few harsh words to make Tan Xiangqian shut up.
She knew that Fubao had become very popular in this class. Many people noticed Fubao and talked about the girl holding the national flag. Many boys were secretly attracted to her and wanted to send her love letters and make progress together with her and become friends.
Fubao actually became a celebrity in the school...Yu Xiaoyue felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.
When I first entered school, I was the person everyone talked about.
Yu Xiaoyue was very upset about this matter. In addition, Tan Xiangqian was punished and came to her several times, crying, saying that she had to help find a job after graduation. Yu Xiaoyue was naturally annoyed. It just so happened that she forgot to bring an umbrella that day and got caught in the rain, so she fell ill.
It was originally just a minor cold, nothing serious, but who knew that she would have a fever and talk nonsense, and almost developed myocarditis. She was hospitalized for seven or eight days because of this. This incident really upset her. After all, she rarely got sick since she was a child. Unexpectedly, she got sick for no reason and suffered so much. She had to get injections, infusions, and splitting headaches. Not only did she miss a lot of schoolwork, but she was also afraid that many of her interpersonal relationships at school would be affected.
It was during the seven or eight days that she disappeared that Fubao became even more popular. In her opinion, after she returned, no one would remember the existence of Yu Xiaoyue.
He had just been discharged from the hospital and was feeling a little better, so Jingfei accompanied him to school.
But Yu Xiaoyue didn't expect that she would see Fubao as soon as she entered the school.
This ghost is really lingering, she is everywhere!
What made Yu Xiaoyue most unhappy was her brother's attitude towards Fubao. He seemed very affectionate and stared at Fubao as soon as he saw him.
Yu Xiaoyue deliberately took a look and said with a smile: "Brother, it's Fubao, but I see people in their dormitory are taking pictures, let's not disturb them."
However, Yu Jingfei was very interested: "Let's go and take a look."
Yu Xiaoyue felt a pause in her heart and very uncomfortable, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only go with Yu Jingfei.
The people in the dormitory were happily taking photos in various poses. Yu Jing flew over and greeted them with a smile: "Fubao."
Fubao looked over and saw Yu Xiaoyue and Yu Jingfei, so he smiled politely: "Xiaoyue, Comrade Yu, long time no see!"
Comrade Yu?
Yu Jingfei thought about it. Although she was very polite before, at least she called him Brother Yu. Why did she become Comrade Yu now?
Yu Jingfei was puzzled.
But Fubao did have some ideas in his mind.
Before, she was very grateful to Yu Jingfei for helping her buy the sleeper ticket, so she regarded Yu Jingfei as a friend in her heart. But now she knows that Yu Jingfei is Yu Xiaoyue's brother, and Yu Xiaoyue actually has such thoughts about her, which makes Fubao feel that it is better for her to stay away from this family.
Although Yu Jingfei had not done anything wrong to him, Fubao vaguely felt that a small part of Yu Xiaoyue's dissatisfaction with him might come from Yu Jingfei.
Being familiar with Yu Jingfei would make Yu Xiaoyue even more dissatisfied with him.
After realizing this, she naturally changed the way she addressed Yu Jingfei to Comrade Yu. After all, he was someone else's brother, not her own.
Yu Jingfei put away his frustration and said with a smile, "Are you taking pictures?"
As he said this, he saw the camera and said, "This camera is pretty good!"
Fubao smiled and said, "I borrowed it from a friend."
Yu Xiaoyue's eyes fell on the camera. Of course she recognized it at a glance. It was the one that belonged to Xiao Dingkun. It should have been lent to her by Xiao Dingkun.
Thinking of the way the man completely ignored her, she simply couldn't imagine what kind of mood he was in to casually lend such an expensive camera to Gu Danyang.
Is he so good to her?
Yu Xiaoyue looked at the camera with a smile and said casually, "Borrowed it? Be careful with it. This camera is quite expensive, about 500 yuan. Don't lose it."
five hundred?
Fubao and his roommates were stunned. Five hundred yuan? That's so expensive!
If something happens to the camera, they won’t be able to afford the compensation even if they sell it!
Yu Jingfei looked at the girls and said with a smile, "It's nothing. This camera is very sturdy and won't break easily. Just use it with confidence."
Fu Bao and his roommate exchanged a glance, and finally Shen Meini said loudly, "Let's not use it yet. We've already finished the five servings of stir-fried cabbage."
Five servings of stir-fried cabbage? Yu Jingfei was completely bewildered, and neither was Yu Xiaoyue.
Fubao smiled and explained the origin of the five portions of stir-fried cabbage. Yu Jingfei couldn't help laughing: "You guys are so funny!"
This smile made the atmosphere more relaxed. Everyone knew that Yu Jingfei was Yu Xiaoyue's brother, who had returned from the army to visit his family, so they asked about things in the army. Yu Jingfei talked and laughed, and talked about various stories in the army. Everyone listened with great interest.
As they were talking, it was already time for dinner, so Yu Jingfei suggested, "You are all my sister's classmates. Since there are no outsiders here, let's go to the cafeteria to eat together."
Fubao's roommates all agreed. Fubao glanced at Yu Xiaoyue indifferently, only to see that the unhappiness in Yu Xiaoyue's eyes was so obvious that she couldn't hide it at all.
Seeing her so unhappy, Fu Bao was happy. He simply smiled and said, "Brother Yu, how about I treat you to dinner in the cafeteria today? Just as a thank you for helping me with the sleeper ticket quota that day."
Yu Jingfei: "Okay, that's what you said. I don't have a meal ticket from your school, so I'm relying on you for this meal!"
While the conversation was going on, Yu Xiaoyue's face was sullen, she gritted her teeth and cursed inwardly, thinking, "This is my brother, not your brother. Who do you think you are?"
——
The whole meal process can be said to be very pleasant. Everyone had a great time chatting with Yu Jingfei. After Yu Jingfei shared his experience in the army, he also talked about his childhood. He seemed to be particularly interested in things in the mountain village, and specifically asked how Fubao picked pig grass in the mountains when he was a child.
After Fubao told him about how he and his brother Shengtian had roamed the mountains looking for grass to feed the pigs, Yu Jingfei asked, "Dagunzi Mountain, right? I remember your brother mentioned that your home was at the foot of Dagunzi Mountain?"
Fubao nodded: "Yes, Dagunzi Mountain is very big, and there are villages all around it."
Yu Jingfei suddenly turned around and asked his sister, "I remember my dad was stationed at Dagunzi Mountain. Do you remember?"
Yu Xiaoyue's expression suddenly changed, and she forced a smile: "How would I know that? I haven't heard my uncle mention it."
Fu Bao became interested: "Really? Then where exactly is Uncle Yu? I seem to have heard that there was an army stationed in our mountain before. Maybe that's where Uncle Yu is!"
Yu Jingfei looked at Fubao and smiled, "I really don't know about that, but Fubao, you can come to my house someday and talk to my dad. He really misses the days when he was stationed in the mountains when he was young. I'm sure you two will get along well."
Going to visit home... Thinking of Yu Xiaoyue, Fubao thought it was better to forget it, so he smiled and didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Yu Jingfei stopped talking about this and turned to other things. Overall, everyone had a very pleasant chat. Finally, Yu Jingfei left his military contact address and said that they could be pen pals.
When they returned to the dormitory, all of their roommates were very happy, especially Feng Meini: "Yu Jingfei is quite good-looking, and he's a soldier. I like the way he looks in his uniform!"
Li Juan'er wasn't interested in what looked good or not. Recalling Yu Xiaoyue's face, which was clearly unhappy but still trying hard to smile, she couldn't help but feel smug: "Look at her like that, as if we were going to steal her brother away!"
Her words reminded others, and Mo Jiasi also said, "Yes, she seems to be eager to hide her brother."
Feng Meini: "It's really inexplicable. Humph, she's unhappy, right? I insist on communicating with Yu Jingfei and becoming his pen pal!"
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw Feng Meini shaking her head with a smug look on her face.
Fubao held his chin, recalling Yu Xiaoyue's obviously pale face. It seemed that her illness was really serious?
This can be considered as retribution.
People with bad intentions will never have a good ending.
