Chapter 12, meeting old classmates
"Zhang Xuan."
Just when he was puzzled, a very rustic voice came into his ears. He knew who it was without even looking. It must be his old classmate Yang Yongjian.
Looking at Yang Yongjian, who couldn't be more earthy, he sat down. Was he really tired of her two braids? Couldn't he change her hairstyle after more than ten years?
Speaking of this girl, in her last life she ran a foreign trade company in Shenzhen, lived in commercial housing, drove a Mercedes-Benz, and became a multi-millionaire.
When he was a teacher, others took good care of him and often gave him foreign trade orders to work part-time to support his family. Anyway, after one year, the money from part-time work is more than the regular salary, or even a lot more.
Even though he is rich, and even though the relationship between the two has been strong throughout his life, it really does not affect Zhang Xuan's stereotyped image of this lady: earthy, earthy to the point of scum, and earthy to the depths of his soul throughout his life.
Zhang Xuan helped order a big bowl of wontons, and then asked: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, why are you here, and why did you come down from the mountain?"
Yang Yongjian, who was wearing a gray sweater, rolled his eyes at him and retorted rudely: "I haven't seen you for half the winter vacation, why are you still so naughty?"
Zhang Xuan laughed, "I'm trying to separate people. I'm only kind and frank with you, my old classmate. Do you think I'm like this to others?"
Yang Yongjian turned his head and looked at him and said seriously: "It seems like that. You are a humble gentleman to others, and you are even very introverted and blushing when facing a good-looking girl like Mi Jian."
After being exposed, Zhang Xuan immediately became unhappy and retorted: "Okay, okay, it's over. Do you still remember the bad things that happened in the first year of high school? Besides, was I the only blushing boy in the class at that time? "
Just win, and stop clicking. Yang Yongjian changed the subject at the right time and said: "When I passed by your door in the morning, I wanted to call you, but when I saw your family arguing, I didn't dare to go in. What happened? Are you okay now?"
"It's okay." Zhang Xuan explained briefly and then asked, "You came to town, why didn't you go find Du Shuangling?"
Yang Yongjian said: "She is at her sister's place in Changsha and will not come back until tomorrow."
Speaking of this, she asked out of curiosity: "You often go to town. Do you know if the couple went to Changsha, or did you say you never went to find her?"
"Too busy, no time to look for it." Zhang Xuan said sincerely.
Not quite believing it, Yang Yongjian looked at him with a half-smile, but didn't mention it again.
The wontons arrived, and the two of them ate in silence with their heads down. Even if we don't talk to each other, we don't feel awkward. We are too familiar with each other. After all, we have been classmates and friends since elementary school. It doesn't seem to matter if we say more or less.
After finishing the wontons, Zhang Xuan rushed to pay the bill.
Yang Yongjian knew about his family's situation and insisted on giving him the money after leaving the store.
Zhang Xuan frowned and said, "We haven't seen each other for a few days. Are we separated?"
Yang Yongjian said: "There is no need for us to be vain. One dollar and a half is not a small change to me, and it is not a small change to you. Who is better than the other?"
As she said that, she smiled openly: "You know, I had no intention of eating wontons before. I saw you always peeking at the proprietress in the store, so I went in to catch you. But you can just open your mouth and give it to me. I ordered a big bowl, but the small bowl was enough. It was a waste of my money.”
Although the girl was unforgiving, she still put the money into his hand. At the end, she joked: "We are all tight with money, and you have reached the age where your heart is full of love, so you should save the money to invite the future one." , If a man doesn’t have money, it will be difficult to find a partner in the future.”
Now that the conversation has come to this point and he knows the other person's temperament, Zhang Xuan doesn't bother to push her, so he just lets her go.
Later, he asked in confusion: "I see you haven't bought anything yet. Are you just coming to town to relax?"
Yang Yongjian said: "No, I'm waiting for my dad to come back today from his side job."
After saying that, she added: "You should go back first. Your mother is not in good health. Don't be lazy. Go back early and do more things for her."
"..."
Zhang Xuan was speechless. His habit of being lazy since he was a child was really talked about. In fact, he couldn't be blamed. His mother was used to it when his father was still alive.
At that time, Ruan Xiuqin was not allowed to do either this or that. He was only allowed to read or simply play. He was called to relax, but no one else did.
Later, his father died unexpectedly. He wanted to do more things, but unfortunately he was in the third grade of junior high school. The school was far away and he was busy with studies, so he was basically away from home.
Worried that her old classmate would be alone in the cold wind, Zhang Xuan stayed with her for more than an hour after buying rat poison. She didn't sit down until her father, who had returned from coal digging, got off the car and watched the two father and daughter go shopping for new year goods. Get on Ouyang Yong's motorcycle and return to Shangcun.
At the intersection, while helping to unload the luggage, Ouyang Yong asked: "Is that tall and dark man just now your classmate's father?"
Zhang Xuan nodded: "Yes."
"What a big change. Why are you so thin?"
"It may be related to the coal mining job. I heard that I also have hyperthyroidism."
Ouyang Yong volunteered and said, "I'll pick them up."
Zhang Xuan asked curiously: "How much do you usually charge to go to Yongxing Village up there?"
Ouyang Yong said: "20."
Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows, "Is it so expensive?"
Ouyang Yong explained, "Is this expensive? Your classmate is in a high mountain. There is a 14-mile mountain road from our village. There are dangerous cliffs everywhere. No matter how much money you give me at night, I dare not go up there."
Zhang Xuan shook his head and said: "Let's forget it, they can't bear the 20 yuan."
Ouyang Yong whistled and said with a smile: "Her grades are so good. She ranks first every time. She will soon be a solid college student. I will invest in her to see if you accept her money."
Then he thought of something and said: "Your relationship is so good. If we become husband and wife in the future, we will still be a family. That will be a good story."
Zhang Xuan waved his hands in disgust, indicating that he should get out of here as far away as possible.
…
That night, Zhang Xuan, who stayed up late reviewing until two in the morning, fell asleep on his desk again and had a dream.
In the dream, there were three children, two girls, one boy, who kept pestering me, crying and shouting "Give me back my daddy" all night long. It was useless to beg for help later. The three children actually raised a hatchet and struck Mo Xin at his own head.
Zhang Xuan woke up with a fright, and stretched his eyebrows with his fingers in shock.
He clearly remembered that the three children in the dream were clearly the children of his eldest sister in his previous life. They were asking for the return of his kindness.
What three bastards, how dare you do this to your uncle! This is my kind intention, do you understand to help you find a better family?
It is said that good birds choose trees to roost in, and people choose good people to keep them company. You must be content and cherish...
Forget it, halfway through comforting himself, Zhang Xuan suddenly looked out the window with some wan interest, thinking that it had been more than half a year since he was reborn, but subconsciously he still couldn't forget his previous life...
