Chapter 44
Chapter 44
Guan Yu stayed in Yunnan for seven or eight days.He followed Cen Zheng and the others up and down the mountain, stop and go. At the beginning, he was not used to it. He didn't bring any toiletries. In some places, the inns even had toilets outside, and he had to walk far away to go to other places to eat. They could only stand next to each other in disgrace.As the days went by, he actually got used to this kind of sloppy life.
Later, I returned to Kunming from Yuanyang, and then went all the way to Lijiang, took a small tour of Lugu Lake, and arrived at Lashihai. I finally replenished my supplies along the way, and my accommodation began to change from an inn to a hotel. Guan Yu changed his clothes and found another place. After I cut my hair, I gradually got a little travel look.
The day the hair was cut was the Lantern Festival, Wu Jiajia had a beauty sleep in the hotel, Guan Yu found a random shop on the street and went in, and asked for a round cut as soon as he sat down.Cen Zheng smiled and reminded him: "Isn't it important not to shave your head during the New Year's Eve?"
Guan Yu said: "My uncle doesn't believe this. Didn't he just divorced my aunt last year? Years ago, he found a young model, a 26-year-old model who was younger than my cousin. When you are old, you have a thick skin. The little model is always called his father by the predecessors, which makes our family feel uncomfortable. He is so virtuous, why are he afraid of having his head shaved in the first month?"
Guan Yu usually doesn't talk about the affairs of relatives' families. Although Cen Zheng has heard of them to some extent, he is not interested in the gossip of these parents, so he said with a smile: "When you are old, falling in love is as desperate as an old house on fire. But Although your uncle is flirtatious, he is better than you. You see, you have been out for a few days, and you don’t bother to talk to your companions on the road, and you don’t go to the bar at night, so you know how to use your mobile phone to take pictures and send MMS during the day... Didn't I call you back?"
Chen Lou really hasn't replied since the first day he received his MMS, but Guan Yu's mobile phone comes with a receipt service, and he will receive a notification when the other party reads the message.
Guan Yu groaned and squinted his eyes, "There are replies, all of them are there."
Cen Zheng: "..."
Guan Yu glanced at Cen Zheng in the mirror, saw his disbelief, and was afraid that what he said would expose him, so he changed the subject and said, "Are you and Jiajia going abroad?"
"Well, my materials have already been handed over to apply." Cen Zheng said: "But Jiajia is still hesitating. She has never left her parents since she was a child. She is always afraid of being homesick and not used to being outside. Although Uncle Wu The attitude is very clear, but I am definitely not willing to part with it in my heart.”
Guan Yu knew that they went abroad in the last life in the last life.Cen Zheng had planned to go abroad since high school, and he had made sufficient preparations, and the school had contacted them in advance.Guan Yu thought it was natural for him and Wu Jiajia to go out, but he never thought that he would experience the hesitation and entanglement before.
"What if she doesn't want to go out again in the end?" Guan Yu couldn't help asking, "Are you still going out?"
Cen Zheng was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Why didn't you go?"
Guan Yu: "..."
"Although the two of us have only confirmed our relationship not long ago, we have been together for two years and know each other very well, so we won't worry about the so-called long-distance relationship." Cen Zheng smiled, paused for a moment, then collected his expression and said: "Not to mention feelings It is as important as a career, if you have to compare it... Think about it, how many girls are willing to live poorly, take the bus to and from get off work, take care of their children and earn money? How many successful men are lonely The old man? Although these words sound ugly, they are the truth. After all, the protagonists in fairy tales are princes and princesses. Since when have you ever heard of the shepherd boy and the village head Erya?"
"What fairy tale am I listening to?" Guan Yu subconsciously retorted: "Who said that the shepherd boy and Erya can't be together happily?"
"We can be together," Cen Zheng just said casually, and couldn't help laughing seeing him being so serious, but he still said seriously: "But being together doesn't mean the end, after getting married and having children, raising a family, life is everywhere. Every needle and line of firewood, rice, oil and salt are expenses, and it is better to have money than to have no money. Not to mention, there are old and young, and if there is a headache or a minor illness, those who have no money go to a small hospital, and those who have money You can go to a big hospital, and when it comes to life-and-death situations, when you have an operation and a lot of medicine, maybe 30 to [-] yuan can cost a life."
Guan Yu made sense, but couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart, sighed and said, "I'm fine, why tell you this."
It's not that he hasn't experienced the hard times, and he has also had a gap in his heart. Everything Cen Zheng said is reasonable, and he really can't refute it.It's just that when he is free these days, he always thinks about the past at every turn, and then loses his mind inexplicably.
When we first met him, Chen Lou who stuttered and introduced himself, Chen Lou who sneaked back every day to do experiments in order to make him a cake, the one who held his graduation certificate in his arms distressedly, and handed out his own graduation certificate Chen Lou...and later...Chen Lou who went to the bar to get drunk...The past was like a gorgeous and hasty dream. Guan Yu couldn't help but look back at a certain scene, but he realized that That's the past tense and I feel panicked and overwhelmed.
He couldn't help but think, he and Chen Lou had quarreled so many times, and they were fine before, so why couldn't they get through this time.Is it possible that the other party will turn back as long as you hold on a little longer?
Chen Lou looked at the photo of the round cut in his hand, and was stunned for a while, before he sighed and put the phone away.
In the past few days, Lu Hening also occasionally sends MMS messages, which are also attached photos, but the contents are mostly scenic relics, or special snacks in Shanghai street corners and alleys.
At first, Chen Lou was not used to replying to this kind of MMS. After all, he was used to using a smart phone in his last life. The transfer of photos is as convenient as text, and the resolution of the images is also high.But Lu Hening would occasionally call to ask if he received it, and then he gradually changed his habit, replying with an emoji or ok every time.It's just that he still doesn't know how to reply to Guan Yu's message, and he can't help but click on it every time out of curiosity, but that's all.
During the Lantern Festival, more students returned to school.Chen Lou's mobile phone became more and more lively.
The people in his dormitory have basically arrived in the past two days. The clinical ones are about to start their internship for more than a year, and the few of them who are about to graduate also start to go to the hospital to run job fairs.After everyone came back, they would ask about the situation of several others, and finally summed up the total, and decided that since everyone is still free, it is better to simply have a small gathering.
Chen Lou was bored at home for a long time, so he happily changed his clothes and went out. The few of them ate and drank enough at night, and they didn't leave until nine o'clock.
When returning home, there was a rare breeze, Chen Lou was in a good mood, and went upstairs with the key.The voice-activated light in the corridor was broken two days ago by a neighbor’s child who was walking away from relatives. I took a photo of the keyhole with my mobile phone, only to realize that there was a person lying on the side!
A woman was sitting on the ground with disheveled hair, her face was smudged, she looked like she had just cried.
Chen Lou's heart was almost blown by this person, and he stared dumbfounded for a long time before he barely recognized it: "Xiaohui?"
The old neighbor who moved away not long ago is back, but obviously not in the right shape.Chen Lou saw that she looked very depressed, so he opened the door and let her in, hesitated for a while, and was about to call Dacheng.
Xiaohui turned her head to see it, but suddenly said sadly: "Don't look for him! You look for him and I'll show you to death!"
With a sharp voice and distorted expression, Chen Lou saw that she was in a scary state, so he paused and could only sigh, "Then you go wash your face first."
Ten minutes later, Xiaohui sat on the sofa. On the coffee table in front of her was a comb that Chen Lou had found, but she didn't use it either, and let her hair be disheveled.He said all kinds of curse words fiercely in his mouth.
After listening to it for a long time, Chen Lou finally understood the whole story. It must be that a new waitress came to the place where Dacheng worked, and she had a great appearance and figure.Xiaohui didn't know it at first, but when she went to find Dacheng one time, she was a little unhappy when she saw that he was working for that woman.After the settlement at the end of the year, the new waitress made a lot of mistakes and broke a few things, so there was basically nothing left of the wages deducted.The waitress wept aggrievedly, so several other colleagues shared a little for her, and most of them shared the most.
Xiaohui felt aggrieved, and said angrily: "He just fell in love with that vixen! How much money does he have a month? Why should he give it to other women? I save food and drink at home, why doesn't he consider giving it to me and the baby?" Buy more nutritional supplements!" As he spoke, he began to cry again: "I think he's lost his mind, maybe he did something with that woman!"
Chen Lou is very helpless about such housework, and can't judge whether it is right or wrong.
He thought to himself, from the point of view of Dacheng or most men, it is almost natural to be distracted when encountering a beautiful woman, and if there is something dirty about such care, it is probably wronging others.But if you change him to a rough guy colleague or a menopausal aunt, he will definitely not be able to do such "care".In the final analysis, there must be some thoughts in my heart, but my thoughts are my thoughts, and the person concerned may not have thought about putting them into action.
As far as Xiaohui is concerned, although her actions are based on her own intuition, and women's intuition is probably correct, her current performance is still unavoidable.At this time, smart women are always two-two-handed, and Dacheng is usually good to her, and he is always arguing about life and death, which unintentionally accelerates the intensification of the conflict between the two.What's more, Dacheng just did a favor, and didn't do anything excessive, so it's even more unreasonable for her to be fussy now.
Chen Lou sighed, and couldn't help thinking about it again, how many people can calmly and self-sufficiently dial a thousand catties when something really happens?At this moment, others can see clearly, but the self in the previous life was hysterical and persistent.At that time, his quarreling and distorted face was not much better than Xiaohui's. It was also because his EQ was too low and his actions were stupid. He hurt eight hundred enemies and one thousand himself.
Unless Xiaohui can be ruthless and really break the relationship, or she can empathize with her and find another good son-in-law early, the end of this matter will inevitably be that one party admits his mistake and the two reconcile.
Then in the endless days that followed, I repeated this painful entanglement over and over again.
Chen Lou felt a little pessimistic.
Xiaohui cried again for a while, and didn't fall asleep on the sofa until midnight.Chen Lou hesitated for a moment, took out a newly bought quilt from Guan Yu's room, and covered her. Seeing that she was clutching her belly, she sighed again, took the key and went to the corridor to smoke.
Dacheng must inform, after all, it is someone else's housework, and he is a man, so he should be more or less taboo.Fortunately, he saved the other party's number when he changed the number last time. Chen Lou made a call first, but seeing no one answered, he sent another message.
After the message was sent, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response for more than ten minutes.Chen Lou waited for a long time, couldn't help reaching out to touch the cigarette again, saw a few cigarette butts under his feet, paused and put it back, only sighed softly.
The screen of the phone suddenly lit up, and two text messages flew in on the screen. He heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly clicked on it, but found that it was not from Dacheng.
The first one is from Guan Yu, his tone is still pretending to be relaxed, the essence is to ask: "Are you asleep? I'm in Lashihai now, I bought a lot of maca, I'll give you half of it for me when I go back..."
The second one is Lu Hening, with a simple sentence, "I'll go back the day after tomorrow, come pick me up?"
Chen Lou pressed the phone, hesitated to exit, and clicked in again. For a while, Guan Yu's smirking photo with a round cut head was in his mind, and for a while, Xiao Huiku was sitting at the door of his house...
Input, edit, add, delete, and delete, and finally sent only two words - "Okay."
