Chapter 34 Chapter Thirty-Three

Shi Yan felt that Yao Xiaoping was really "down-to-earth", like the earth itself, with a strong attraction to the center of the earth, always pulling everyone around her to the ground.Although it is safer to fall on the ground, sometimes people just want to fly in the air, and they like that kind of insecurity, because people don’t just live with a sense of security, people also need appropriate adventures, appropriate mistyness, and life is rich and colorful . But Yao Xiaoping's "attraction to the center of the earth" was obviously strong enough, and Shi Yan was pulled to the ground with a single pull.Yao Xiaoping's comments on the boys' "the one in the front" and the "the one in the back" really chilled her.The reason for her disappointment is not that Yao Xiaoping sees boys too badly, but because she sees boys too accurately.She thought of the girls' boyfriends and husbands in the dormitory, it was really like this, and all she could think about was how to find a place to do "the next thing".

Needless to say, those husbands came to D city to see their wives for that purpose, so they took their wives to the school's shabby guest house as soon as they came, even if they had an exam tomorrow. .The few wives seemed to complain less, but there were also those who shouted long live after their husbands left: "ah, I finally left, I am so annoying, the exam is about to come, and he just came here at such a time -" What about those who are not yet married?Nine out of ten have complained about their boyfriends.There is a person named Qinglian who often complains to Yao Xiaoping: "If I don't agree to him, he will say that I don't love him at all; if I agree to him, he will always think about it. In the past, when we met, we would talk, hold hands and so on. , now that’s what I’ve come up with, and I want to leave when I’m done—”

Yao Xiaoping always pointed Qinglian: "You have to learn how to exchange what he wants for what you want. Isn't he thinking about that all the time? Then you let him do what you want him to do first, and he If you don't meet your requirements, you won't give him what he wants—" Judging from Qinglian’s story, Yao Xiaoping’s tongue-twisters were more effective than tongue-twisters at first, but the last time Qinglian came back crying because her boyfriend broke up with her and said that she always used “that thing.” "Come to bargain, Qinglian regretted so much, she said that she should not have listened to Yao Xiaoping's words if she knew this was the case.

Yao Xiaoping, as always, never criticized herself, and only comforted Qinglian, saying: "If you run away, you will run away. This kind of man should run away early. He obviously uses you as a tool to vent his desire. Why do you still miss him?" " Qinglian said: "But I, I gave him everything—" Yao Xiaoping came to the front, and covered it up: "I don't want my child to be a wolf. If you don't get to this point, how can you know that he is such a person? Don't worry that the next boyfriend will find a flaw. I will teach you a way." -" Shi Yan wondered why all the girls in the dormitory listened to Yao Xiaoping's words. In her opinion, Yao Xiaoping was talking nonsense, and it was irresponsible to say the wrong thing.But maybe people are like this, there are always times when they can’t make up their minds, and there are always times when they want others to help them make up their minds, because other people’s ideas are wrong, and it’s the responsibility of others, even if they can’t be held criminally or administratively. responsibility, but the psychological responsibility can be pushed to others.Since Yao Xiaoping is not afraid of death and is willing to help others make up their minds, there must be someone willing to let Yao be the dead ghost.

Shi Yan has no better ideas than Yao Xiaoping about this kind of thing, but if her boyfriend makes such a request and threatens her with breaking up, she will definitely not be afraid, because it means that he is not worthy of love, so why still To try to keep him?If he wants to break up, break up with him, and would rather break up than be coerced by him.The problem is that the girls can't do that, they want to keep the guy, so they give in. She believes that not all boys are as unbearable as Yao Xiaoping said, and there are always some boys who, like girls, enjoy "the previous pass". She feels that neither Huang Hai nor Zhuoyou are that kind of unbearable boys because They are not in a hurry to do "the next pass".Huang Hai could also say that it was because of the distance, but Zhuoyue was always by his side. If what he was thinking about was "the next one", then he should have come to him long ago.But he didn't, which shows that he is not someone who only thinks about "the next pass".

As for why he came to her now, she also found a reason for him: he was helping her before, and he was afraid that she would be under pressure and that she would please him just to be grateful, so he didn't come to her.But now that her stay in school has been settled, she doesn't have to please him, so he can come to her.And this time, he was only asking about the gift, and didn't say "the latter part", which means that he was still doing the "front part". She thought, maybe he has always loved her in his heart, that's why he was as natural and friendly as an old husband and wife at the beginning. Some time ago, it was just because of a special event like staying in school that made it difficult for him to come to her every day, but He was still working on the "before" in his mind.Besides, he is quite busy, he has to write manuscripts, hold meetings, and teach. He can help her and care about her in his busy schedule. It should be said that it is very romantic. You can’t ask him to play a ten-minute phone call. The phone had to make a big detour first, so of course we had to go straight in.

Early the next morning, someone asked Shi Yan to answer the phone. She knew it was Zhuoyou, and it was probably because she called before going to Laoshan. She was just about to tell him about Yao Xiaoping asking him to buy a pearl necklace, so she hurriedly said Run downstairs and answer the phone. It really is excellent, and it really is a matter of going to Laoshan.As soon as he heard it was her, he said, "I'm going to Laoshan soon, I want to ask you if you like conch, I heard that you can find conch by the sea—" She is complacent that she can calculate his actions, now he is no longer the one she can't figure out, but something in her pocket, and his every move is under her control.She liked the idea of ​​him picking conch by himself, and felt that it was much more romantic than a cheap pearl necklace, so she quickly said, "I like conch, so you can just pick one and bring it back to me, don't buy a pearl necklace—"

He didn't comment on this point. She guessed that if he didn't hold him by the nose this time, he would buy the pearl necklace on his own initiative, but since she had already said that she didn't want the necklace, she didn't have to accept it when he bought it.She was a little embarrassed and said, "Yao Xiaoping—she asked if you could buy her five strings of pearl necklaces, within five yuan, in various colors. She wants to buy them as gifts—" He immediately agreed: "No problem. Do you want to buy some as a gift?" She twitched and said, "Let's forget it—"

He was called away in a hurry again, as if to say that the car was waiting.She thought that he was still calling her before getting into the car, and she was very happy, feeling a little bit like a relationship. That day, she kept imagining his scene at the beach, as if she could see him walking barefoot on the beach, looking for conch shells while walking, and when she found one, she picked it up and looked at it, saying, "Well, she might not like this one." Like", throw it away, and then look for it.Finally he found a big conch, light yellow with some patterns on it, he said: "She must like this", so he washed it, wrapped it up, and put it carefully in the bag.

She thought, if what he brought back to her this time was a light yellow conch, it meant that he and her had a good heart, and their marriage was destined in the previous life.If he didn't bring back buff conch--what did that mean?She thought about it for a while, but she didn't come to a conclusion. She felt that her requirements were too strict, and it was almost like a superstition. It's better not to draw such a frame early, no matter what color it is, as long as it is a conch. She thinks this kind of caring between the two places is really sweet. She imagines everything about him here, and he looks for conch shells for her there. This is love, and this is a heart-to-heart bond.In fact, it’s good to start like this. Love is like knitting a sweater. There are various ways to start it. It doesn’t have to start with admiring eyes, and maybe he looked at her admiringly when we met in the corridor?Didn't she think his eyes were piercing?Maybe his eyes are different, and love is shining brightly from his eyes?

That day, she was immersed in a feeling of inebriation, unable to do anything, and simply went to the mall to buy some gadgets needed for moving.She saw a pair of sunglasses and thought they matched Zhuozhu's face shape very well. She imagined him wearing sunglasses and thought they were so handsome, so she blushed and bought them in a heartbeat, as a reward, because he would bring her a present back this time Yes, then isn't it only natural for her to give him something? When she returned to her bedroom, she was still happy.Yao Xiaoping saw the change in her immediately, and asked with a snickering smile, "How is it? Have you found the feeling of dating?" "What, I'm busy with moving—" Yao Xiaoping immediately fell from the sky to the ground: "Oh, I remembered, let's go to the housing management department tomorrow and divide the houses together—" She conveyed Zhuoyou's warning about the "Three Eastern Provinces". Yao Xiaoping said: "It seems that Zhuoyou is really good. You won't suffer if you follow him. Just remember not to offend him. If you don't offend him, maybe he will." I won’t use that set of insidious means on you. As the saying goes, a tiger’s poison does not eat its son, and perhaps a man’s poison does not eat his wife—” She was very happy to see that Yao Xiaoping was slowly changing her views on excellence.This incident also proved that Yao Xiaoping was right to be pessimistic about her and Huang Hai's prospects.During this period of time, only Yao Xiaoping and Huang Hai didn't like Excellence, which affected her emotions. If they really followed Huang Hai, how many people would throw cold water on her?How can she live well if she cares so much about the opinions of the masses? She almost wanted to tell her parents about Zhuo Liang, but she felt that it was not time yet, because Zhuo Liang hadn't said those three words yet.When she thought of those three words, she was a little worried, wondering if Zhuo Liang would say those three words to her?If he never said anything and just wanted to drag her into marriage like a time tunnel, would she follow him?Do you have to lead him by the nose in this kind of matter and induce him to say those three words?That didn't seem to make any sense. Her worry was endless at the beginning, no matter how she thought about it, she felt that Zhuoyou didn't love her, but was just helping her. This time, she also mentioned the pearl necklace by the way because she wanted to ask her about staying in school, and emphasized "very Cheap", that should be convincing her, because he just bought it for her, and she should pay for it herself, otherwise why would he emphasize that the pearl necklace is "very cheap"? It just so happened that Zhuoyou didn't call the next day.That day, apart from going to the housing management department with Yao Xiaoping to assign rooms, she stayed in the dormitory all the time, listening every minute to hear if someone called her to answer the phone.Yao Xiaoping came to talk to her, and she was very annoyed. Yao Xiaoping scolded her with a smile: "Why are you so useless, you fell into it all at once?" She pretended to be confused: "Where did it go?" "Don't pretend to be confused, of course you fell into the love network of Zhuoyou. This kid really has a way of chasing women. But this way will definitely not work on me—" Although Shi Yan looked down on those girls who asked Yao Xiaoping for advice on love, but now she seemed to have forgotten her self-confidence in being superior in love, and asked: "Why doesn't it work on you?" "Because I never bet on a man—" "What's the meaning?" Yao Xiaoping taught her a lesson: "What do you mean? Just don't put all your heart on a man. If you put your heart on a man, you love him too much. If you love him too much, you take him too seriously. A man is so smart. Very soon, he can sniff out whether you take him seriously. When he knows that you take him seriously, he can order you and dispatch you—” She thinks Zhuo Liang is not that kind of person, and sometimes it’s not up to you who you take seriously. You don’t want to take him seriously, but your heart wants to take him seriously, so what’s the matter? Method? Yao Xiaoping said: "I'll teach you a way to use your Yellow Sea as your backing. I'm not saying that you have to step on two boats. You don't have the ability to step on two boats. If you can't do it well, I can do it. If you can't do it, you can do it once." Step over. I mean, you can use Huang Hai as your backing in your mind, or let the two of them back each other. If you find that you can’t let go of excellence, think about Huang Hai’s good; if you can’t let go of Huang Hai, think about If you want to be great—” "How can this be?" "Why can't it be? Does it hurt anyone? It hurts no one, but it protects your own poor heart—" She asked curiously, "So that's what you did?" "Of course, if I don't do this, how do I know that this method works?" "You still need to do this?" Yao Xiaoping chuckled: "Do you think I have a heart of stone? I also came from your age, and I know that no one will protect your heart, only you are responsible for yourself—" Shi Yan thought for a while and said: "I don't think I can do this. If I'm on two boats in my heart like this, I'll feel—I'm very despicable, so I won't be able to feel—the sweetness of love—" Yao Xiaoping didn't force her, and changed her words: "Then I'll teach you another trick. Just think about it this way: suffering for love is also a kind of enjoyment." Shi Yan felt that this method was better. Seeing her acquiescing, Yao Xiaoping sighed and said, "There is really no way to change a person. Take your time and suffer for love. I'm going on a date." Another day later, Zhuoyou still didn't call, Shi Yan felt that her determination to suffer for love was about to collapse, she just wanted to cry, and tears would come pouring out for no reason.Just when she was about to implement Yao Xiaoping's plan of "using yellow to control Zhuo", Zhuoyue's phone call came, and there seemed to be a lot of noise in the background, and the two had to talk loudly. She asked; "Where are you calling, why are you so noisy?" He replied: "at the train station, can you meet me at the station?" She was confused: "Which station?" "Of course it's the train station in City D——" Immediately, a scene of someone carrying a large bag of pearl necklaces on his shoulders appeared in front of her eyes. Several large bags made him bend over. He was sweating profusely, and he was looking at her with pleading eyes.She thought, could it be that he misheard on the phone and thought that "five skewers" meant "fifty thousand"?She panicked, and asked, "I—how—come to pick you up?" He smiled: "How can I pick up what? I can call here—" She kept saying: "Okay, okay, I'll be right over—" She wanted to say, "You hold on," but she felt that time was not allowed, and it was useless to say it.She hung up the phone in a hurry, and before she could change her clothes, she just took the sunglasses she bought for him, and hurried to the school gate to get a taxi. When she arrived at the train station, she didn't see the big bag with the pearl necklace, but only saw the navy blue T-shirt tucked into the light beige trousers, and she was already wearing a pair of sunglasses, which were different from the ones she bought, but they were also brilliant.He stands out of the crowd just like in those photos of him in the album, and all the "chickens" passing by are looking at this "crane".Her heart beat faster and she couldn't believe it was her he was waiting for. He also saw her, smiled, and stood still.But when she came up to him, he stretched out an arm and took her in his arms.
