"Yes, so I learnt very early that friendship was not pure and can be bought and sold. Unlike you and your family, you can't guess."
I don't know why, both Peipei, Yumin and Xiaoqian liked to mention Jialin in front of her. He was a star whom everyone wanted to discuss. The relationship between Pipi and Jialin had really made many girls jealous.
Jialin's house was two stops from the residential area where Pipi lived. From the beginning of junior high school, their parents had discussed how to let the two children go to school together. One should have a companion, then the second would be safer. In this way, it had been persisting for several years without any obstacles. Later, when she grew up, she was no longer a neighbor, and they didn't go to school together, but they didn't live far and they often had the opportunity to walk together when the weather was good.
"The road back is so long, what did you talk about?" Yu Min and Xiao Qian often asked.
Pipi replied: "Nothing, that is, I follow him, we talk about homework. We are neighbors, parents and colleagues, my mother is afraid that I am not safe on the road, so she asks him to take care of me."
"How old are you? He still has to take care of you?"
"No way, our neighborhood is not too good, but my mother is not particularly worried." She quoted the classics, "Did you see the newspaper the day before yesterday? Our factory was hit by a group, bricks were flying all over the sky, and all of them died. Even the pedestrians were accidentally injured. "
"My Goodness," Yu Min and Xiao Qian, who were born in good houses, shuddered at the same time. "It turned out to be like this!"
In fact, the road to school was so long, of course, there had to have been something to say.
Pipi would tell a story, and Jia Lin would be the most loyal listener.
In the two years before the college entrance examination, Jia Lin was always strung so tightly. Listening to Pipi's stories was the most relaxing moment of his day.
Jia Lin's mother's discipline was particularly strict. When the mathematics test was 80, it had to be beaten. "I knew you were careless! I told you to take it seriously! Don't come back to see me next time if you don't get one hundred!" Everything that could be distracting at home was forbidden. The four famous books, "The Complete Works of Shakespeare", "Home", "Spring" and "Autumn" were all locked in a glass cabinet. CDs and MP3s could not be bought. Although Jia Lin and Pipi walked together every day, she was not worried about her early love. Jia Lin's eyes did not see things in such a shallow way. Pipi was too ordinary, her looks too plain, had poor grades, her parents were neither cultural nor enterprising, she was just a promising girl in a family without a future.
