Fu Jiaju woke up the next day, it was already eleven o'clock, washed his face, didn't eat any tea, and walked out of the gate slowly. I saw Aunt Tian approaching in a rickshaw. Fu Jiaju saw her, but she didn't see Fu Jiaju.The car stopped at the entrance of the hotel.Aunt Tian gave the fare for the car, and started to walk in.Fu Jiaju hurriedly called out: "Aunt Tian, ​​who are you looking for in the hotel so early?" Aunt Tian turned her head and saw Fu Jiaju, her face immediately changed color, red for a while, then white for a while, and said tongue-tiedly: "Master, what are you looking for?" Good morning, where are you from?" Fu Jiaju smiled and said, "I didn't go back last night, I stayed in this hotel, just woke up." Aunt Tian said: "I said.

I'm sorry I couldn't get home so late last night. "Fu Jiaju smiled and said: "It's because I'm too lazy to go back, it's not that I can't go back, and I'm not sorry.Aunt Tian is here at this time, who are you looking for in the restaurant? "Aunt Tian said:" There is a man from Shanghai who wants to invite our girl to Shanghai, so I'll go back to him. "Fu Jiaju said:" This is a good thing, what's the point of judging him? "Aunt Tian said: "Cough!It's a long story, let's talk again. "Aunt Tian went into the restaurant in a hurry after saying this. Fu Jiaju hired a car on the street and went home dejectedly. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Qian Zuoyi left a note on the table Pick it up and take a look, it says: "Old Fu, you were so happy last night, you haven't come back yet.Money left words. "Fu Jiaju didn't know where the fire in his heart came from, so he tore it up, threw it on the ground, and then fell on the bed, shaking his legs and thinking about his thoughts. The servant came into the room and said: "Mr. Yang By the way, you are back, please sit in the back. "Fu Jiaju was out of ideas. It would be good to talk to Yang Xingyuan to relieve boredom, so he walked to the back. I saw Yang Xingyuan holding an English book, lying on the sofa and reading. Fu Jiaju said: "Mr. Yang is still working hard like this . "Yang Xingyuan threw the book away and said with a smile: "I am very ambitious to go to the United States for a visit, so I always review a few sentences of English that I don't understand from time to time for future use abroad.In fact, this is delusional.If I can lose a position with Xian Kunzhong, my hope will not be a problem.But things in the world are like this, the unexpected is hard to reach the sky, and the expected is regarded as normal. "Fu Jiakui was guilty, afraid that Yang Xingyuan would go around talking about him, so his face blushed, and he said with a smile: "These days, I'm really ridiculous, I didn't go to school, and I spent a lot of money.From today onwards, I'm going to turn over a new leaf. "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "Why did you suddenly wake up? Fu Jiaju sighed and said: "Cough!It is only today that I feel that juanyou's juxtaposition is really reasonable.Building love on money is completely unreliable. "Yang Xingyuan said: "I see that you must have been greatly stimulated by your appearance, so why not speak out and listen. "Fu Jiaju said:" I'm really embarrassed to say that.Because Mr. Yang persuaded me many times, I was always unaware. "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "Speaking of it this way, it's probably about Tuberose.Is there something she can't live with you? "Fu Jiaju didn't hide anything, so he told me about playing cards at Wan Xiangyu's house last night and meeting Wan Xiangyu in the restaurant. Yang Xingyuan laughed and said, "You have made Han Shou's show off Fragrant. "Fu Jiaju said: "Mr. Yang might not believe it when he said it, and I can't even admit this stealing word.I thought, I was the upper hand last night, but the scent of tuberose was the worst. "Yang Xingyuan didn't realize that his old hatred was touched, and he sighed and said: "It is said that a thousand dollars can buy laughter, but I can buy tears.Brother, if you can realize your consciousness and spend a few dollars, is that nothing?In the future, I will stop reading.Young as you are, the future is bright.Wouldn't it be a pity to waste this great time in a world of debauchery?It's not that you said it yourself, I also plan to persuade you.Now that you have turned somersaults in love, I don't need to say that. "Fu Jiaju said: "Mr. Yang often reads Buddhist books, how to get started.must know.Can people like us who have never studied Buddhism read Buddhist books? "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "Why is this? After being stimulated by this point, do you see through the world of mortals?

To be honest, this kind of Buddhist theory sees the world affairs too thoroughly, and young people will lose their vitality if they read it. "Fu Jiaju said:" Then, why does Mr. Yang read Buddhist books? "Yang Xingyuan said:" I am an old man.How can you and I compare?What's more, even in many places, I can't avoid the vulgarity. This Buddhist book can be regarded as a waste of time.I thought that you don't need to read Buddhist books, but if you try to find some interest in the homework you have studied, those complaints will naturally be discarded. "Fu Jiaju said:" Starting today, I have to sort out my homework.Besides, the annual exam will be coming soon, if you really want to fail, that would be a joke. "Yang Xingyuan smiled, but didn't say anything.

In the afternoon of this day, Yang Xingyuan received a package from Li Dongqing, which contained some clothes, and asked Yang Xingyuan to hand it over to Shi Kelian.Yang Xingyuan called Shi Kelian and asked, "Should I send the clothes over or pick them up?" Shi Kelian said, "Come and pick them up by yourself. Please wait at home tomorrow morning." Corinne did come.Yang Xingyuan said: "The annual exam is approaching, Ms. Shi, do you still have time to go out?" Shi Kelian said: "Hey! Don't mention it. I have been busy for four, five or six days about a classmate, but I still have no idea." Yang Xingyuan smiled. Said: "Probably also a struggling young man." Shi Kelian said: "In the past, maybe he was a struggling young man, but now he is going to be a wife."

Yang Xingyuan said: "This must be a very interesting thing, can you announce it?" Shi Kelian smiled and said: "I don't think I need to announce it, Mr. Yang may know, because this matter has already caused a lot of trouble in the city." Yang Xingyuan said "That's right, I seem to have heard someone say that there is a student in your school who jumped off the building well, is this the person?" Shi Kelian said, "It's her." So she negotiated with Jiang Shuying and Hong Muxiu, and said briefly over again.He also said: "Jiang Shuying jumped off the building because of Hong Moxiu's negotiation. After she jumped off the building, she still went to Hong's house to recover from her illness. Her lover Zhang Minsheng, because he met me twice, was in great trouble. He came to me every day and asked me to give it to him Invite Mies Jiang to meet once. I wanted to ignore him, but I saw that he was really aggrieved, so I went to see Mies Jiang twice. It's really strange that Mies Jiang lived in Hong's house, and it seemed like he was imprisoned. She lost her freedom, and I really feel sorry for her." When she said that, her face turned red and her eyebrows were raised, as if she was very angry.Yang Xingyuan laughed and said, "I've heard Ms. Li say that Ms. Shi is generous and likes to fight against injustices. According to this incident, it looks really good." Shi Kelian said, "It's not that I'm meddlesome. Ms. Jiang and I get along very well. , almost became a sister. I saw that she was under house arrest by that surnamed Hong, which was very strange. We didn’t sell the body to others, and this body is always my own. Why can’t people be trapped at home and can’t take a step out of the door? ?” Yang Xingyuan said: “Beijing is a place with laws. The man surnamed Hong locked Mies Jiang at home. Hong's appearance."

Shi Kelian said: "I thought about it too, but Ms. Jiang refused to admit that the surname Hong locked her up, so what should I do?" Yang Xingyuan said: "She won't deny it." Shi Kelian said: "That's why I'm angry! I went to Hong's house yesterday, and I told her: "The surname Zhang looks for you every day, you should Go see him. ’ She said: ‘My brother-in-law won’t let me go out, so I can’t do anything about it. 'I said: "Freedom of movement, can your brother-in-law interfere?" She said: "It's not that he interferes with me, he always advises to rest, and I can't touch his favor." 'Mr. Yang, do you think it's strange for this man to speak?In order to take care of people's sensibilities, they made such a disturbance that they couldn't move freely. "Yang Xingyuan listened to her words, thought about it carefully, and couldn't help laughing. She said: "It's not surprising that she said it, but it's strange that Miss Shi didn't understand it.Think about it, one wants her to come every day, but she doesn't come, and the other stays casually, and she doesn't go.Where is she under house arrest?It is clear that he is willing to be under house arrest.I think she's breaking up with Zhang, you don't care..."

When Yang Xingyuan spoke, he looked at Shi Kelian, and it seemed that there was still something to say below, he suddenly smiled lightly, and stopped it again.Shi Kelian said: "I think it is the same. But I am very worried about her. If she doesn't come back, her studies will be wasted, and I'm afraid I won't get any good results. I will go to see her today as a final reminder. Persuasion. She is really not enlightened, so forget it." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "No need. It's very cold, running around on the road, drinking the northwest wind for others, and they don't feel good. It's better to stay with me Have a light meal, and then take my car to Miss Smith to go back to school."

Shi Kelian said: "I'm not afraid of the cold, but I'm afraid of going. I met that man surnamed Hong. I saw his hospitality and fake smile, and I felt angry." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "Fortunately, Miss Shi arrived. I come here, I am very casual. Otherwise, Ms. Shi would hate my hypocrisy. Shi Kelian said with a smile: "I speak without consideration, Mr. Yang, don't be suspicious." "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "I don't need to be suspicious, Gang treated me very coldly. "At this point, the servant brought a tray with a pot of coffee and two plates of cream cake to the tea table.

The footman poured two cups of coffee and walked out.Yang Xingyuan accosted each other and put the sugar cubes in the sugar jar, one by one, into the coffee cup.Seeing that he kept putting down five pieces of candy, Shi Kelian wanted to put it down.Unknowingly smiled and said: "You drink coffee, why are you so afraid of hardship?" Yang Xingyuan said: "I am not afraid of hardship." Shi Kelian said: "I am not afraid of hardship, why should I put down so much sugar?" When I came over, I saw that there were two fingers holding a piece of candy in my hand.The more embarrassing it became for Skellyn to tell the truth.Then he laughed and said: "I heard what Mies Shi said about Mies Jiang, and I just lost my mind, I don't know what to say." Skellyn also saw what he meant, and was not polite, drinking coffee , while eating cake.Because of this, it was inconvenient for Yang Xingyuan to invite her to dinner again, and after talking for a while, Shi Kelian said goodbye and left, and made an appointment to talk again after the annual exam.Yang Xingyuan and she carried the things to the door, saw that she had hired a car, got in the car, and then turned around and went in.

When Shi Kelian arrived at Hong's house, she went all the way in, only to see Jiang Shuying around the stove, knotting clothes with red ribbons there. Seeing Shi Kelian coming in, she quickly handed over the clothes to the old lady next to her, and asked her to take them with her.She asked Shi Kelian with a smile, "Did you ask me in the school? I am in good health now, and I am determined to go back to school tomorrow." Seeing that there was no one in the room, Shi Kelian asked, "Is what you said true?" Is it right?" Jiang Shuying blushed, and said, "I thought about it for a few nights, and I think it's better to go back to school. Besides, when the annual leave comes, I have to take the exam." Shi Kelian saw that she had said so Of course, there was no need to persuade her, and after talking for a short time, Hong Moxiu came back.I didn't want to sit too much, so I went back to school.

Hong Muxiu asked Jiang Shuying with a smile: "Your classmate is very young and your clothes are very simple, but I think it is elegant and pleasant." Jiang Shuying said: "Don't look at her young, she is very capable of fighting, she is studying now. One person's behavior." Hong Muxiu said: "In this transitional era, young men and women are really dangerous. According to my opinion, nine out of ten people have marital problems." Jiang Shuying said: "Don't talk nonsense, she She went to school by herself because she was living in a relative’s house, and she didn’t want to look at them, so she left those people and did her own thing, not because she left the family for marriage. I think she can completely decide her own marriage , no one can interfere, and no one can destroy it." Hong Muxiu felt that there was a thorn in his words, and said with a smile: "That's natural, no one can interfere with anyone." Jiang Shuying took advantage of this opportunity to speak, and said to Hong Muxiu: " Brother-in-law! I've been bothering you here for so many days, I'm really sorry, I'm going back to school." Hearing what she said, Hong Moxiu didn't show any surprise on his face, and naturally agreed, "Second sister, how come you're polite? I'm afraid you're going back on your words and feel uncomfortable about something." Jiang Shuying said: "It's a joke. Brother-in-law treats me like this, why is there any discomfort? I came to my brother-in-law to recuperate from illness. Now the illness is cured Why am I still bothering you here? Besides, the yearly exam is about to take place, so of course I have to go back to school to take the exam. Otherwise, why don’t I repeat the grade?” Hong Moxiu said, “Of course. Second sister doesn’t have to go tonight. Tomorrow Let's go, it's not a day to study hard. Tonight, I invite my second sister to eat in a small restaurant. After dinner, we will go to a dance together. This is my farewell to you." Jiang Shuying said: "I'm not going out of Beijing, what are you seeing off?" " Hong Muxiu said, "It's because you helped me a lot after Sister Ling passed away. This is my reward." Jiang Shuying said, "I don't dare to do it anymore." Hong Muxiu said with a smile: "Actually It's all a joke. But because of the Overseas Student Union, there is a commemorative meeting tonight, and I have two tickets, so please invite you by the way." Jiang Shuying has always envied this kind of civilized gathering, and after hearing what Hong Muxiu said, she readily agreed to go. When it was six o'clock, Hong Moxiu put on a very beautiful suit first.So I asked Jiang Shuying if she wanted to wear long clothes, short clothes, or a suit?Your sister has it all in the box.Jiang Shuying said: "Don't bother, I just go with the clothes I carry." Hong Muxiu said with a smile: "Second sister is an honest person after all, you are talking in layman's terms. Ladies and ladies in this kind of meeting, the more gorgeous they are, the more gorgeous they are. The more dignified you are. If you go in casual clothes, people will laugh at you." Jiang Shuying said: "If you have to wear gorgeous clothes, I won't go." Hong Moxiu said: "Your sister has plenty in the box, you can pick any one to wear, why not go?" Give the key to Jiang Shuying and ask her to open the box.Hong Moxiu put his hands in his trouser pockets, stood aside, and watched with a smile.Jiang Shuying was fiddling with her clothes when she saw a bright golden light flashing into her eyes.When I lifted it up, it was a squirrel cheongsam in light yellow electroprinted satin.There are green flower bead braids rolling around her body, which shine more and more.Hong Moxiu saw it from the side and said: "This is the best one. This dress cost almost two hundred yuan. At that time, I was getting an unexpected fortune with more than one thousand yuan, so I made it for your sister." I wore a high-quality dress. It was made last winter, and she only wore it once, so it’s still like new. Try it on, it must fit you well.” Jiang Shuying also loved the dress when she saw it. , Sure enough, put it on.I simply found a pair of my sister's shoes in the closet drawer and changed them.Immediately, he washed away his coldness.Because of the cold weather, it was not good for Hong Muxiu to take a rickshaw, so he called a car and sat with Jiang Shuying. He put his wife's leather coat on Jiang Shuying himself, and then went out all the way.When I arrived at the Overseas Student Union, I saw the vermilion lacquer gate, with four pillars on the ground, and a big moon lamp, shining brightly.This place can really show that the Chinese can really follow the Western civilization. All the people who enter the door, there is not a single man who is not in a suit, and there is not a single woman who is not full of beauty and fragrance.And many go one-on-one.Jiang Shuying thought to herself: "Fortunately, I changed clothes, otherwise, I would be really embarrassed to get out of the car." Hong Muxiu helped her out of the car, and the two went in.Inside, it really is full of radiant temples and shadows, with shoes and shoes intertwined.In the large dining room to the east, there are many men and women sitting here, resting and eating. Hong Muxiu and Jiang Shuying chose the co-chairs, called the servants over, and ordered two big dishes.While eating, Jiang Shuying looked at the people who were eating, all men and women sitting side by side, talking and laughing happily.The people who attended the meeting came one after another, more and more.After drinking coffee, he followed Hong Moxiu to the dance hall.At this time, colorful silk lanterns were hung on the pine racks in the yard, reflecting each other's splendor with the national flags fluttering in the wind.In the dance hall, the lights were like daylight, and couples of men and women were smiling all over their faces, looking for friends to talk to among the crowd.The music team in the west immediately started playing music, and here men and women are in pairs, hugging and dancing.Hong Muxiu asked Jiang Shuying in a low voice, "Second Sister, can you also dance?" Jiang Shuying shook her head.Hong Muxiu said: "It's a pity you don't know this. If you know, we can join." While talking, I saw a woman in colorful clothes sitting on the side, and a man in a beautiful suit came, saluted her, and after a few words, the two joined arms and joined the dance team.Jiang Shuying said: "Can this dance be performed with strangers?" Hong Moxiu smiled and said softly: "Don't talk in layman's terms, it's funny." Jiang Shuying said: "Then, why don't you find someone to dance with?" Hong Moxiu said: "I can go, what should I do without you? Let's watch for a while, and it will be fine." Such dancing, It lasted more than two o'clock, and Jiang Shuying was too happy to watch, and waited until the meeting was over before going home by car. Hong Muxiu asked in the car: "Do you think it's interesting?" Jiang Shuying said: "It's interesting, but as students, we shouldn't come here often. Hong Muxiu said: "Then why? "Jiang Shuying said: "It's too prosperous. "Hong Muxiu said: "You are wrong.Life is only a few decades, if you don't find some fun and live an honest life, why bother?Especially the youthful age of life is the most beautiful period of life. If you don’t find some happiness at this time, when you get old, you will have that kind of exuberance. Not a pity? "Jiang Shuying said with a smile:" as you are like, young people should not do things, they should play. "Hong Muxiu said:" You have to do things when you do things, and you have to play when you play. Those who work hard, I thought they didn't see through the world, after all, they are fools. "Jiang Shuying has been impulsive since she came to this bustling venue. In addition, Hong Moxiu is desperately advocating the pleasure-seeking, as if she also feels that life is just a matter of life, so why not be happy? The men and women who attended the meeting, one-on-one, have it Spiritual happiness is also inexhaustible materially. As for young people, if they really want to find happiness in this way, they will be considered happy. She thought this way in her heart, she was sitting in the car next to Hong Muxiu, just lost in thought, her hand was touched by Hong Muxiu Hold it, don't feel it. When we got home, it was already late at night, and the old lady left after serving the tea.Jiang Shuying drank a cup of tea and was about to go back to her room to sleep, Hong Muxiu said: "Second sister, don't rush to sleep, I have something to ask you." Jiang Shuying said: "What's the matter?" Hong Muxiu said: " Do you really want to go back to school tomorrow?" Jiang Shuying said: "The annual exam is coming soon, I have to go." Hong Moxiu pondered for a while, then asked: "That can't be kept." Jiang Shuying said with a smile: "Although you keep a guest, you can't let the guest lose all business." Hong Muxiu said, "If the second sister leaves, Xiao Nan'er will make a fuss. Because he can't leave you." Jiang Shuying said: "If not , the closest relative is his mother. His mother left him, and she left him.What is the deep relationship between me and him, and there is no reason why I can't let it go? "Hong Muxiu said: "It is precisely because he has no mother that he wants you. "Speaking of which, Hong Moxiu looked outside the window, the night was dark, and there was no sound. So he took another step closer, and said to Jiang Shuying in a very low voice: "Second sister, can't you forgive me for what's on my mind? ?I think if we want to pursue happiness in this life, it is best to cooperate. "Jiang Shuying has been restless since watching the dance with him. When he expressed his sincerity and wanted to say something, her heart jumped up. She turned around and sat down with her back to Hong Muxiu. Hong Muxiu rushed forward , took Jiang Shuying's hand and said: "Shuying, my heart has long been yours.I hope you will remember your sister's words, poor Xiao Nan'er is helpless, and allow my request. "Jiang Shuying said: "Brother-in-law, let go, I have something to tell you. I'll tell you the truth, I've been engaged to someone for a long time. "Hong Muxiu said: "I also know a little bit.But I don't think anyone loves you so much as I do.Besides, I can't bear to ask you to marry that homeless young man and suffer hardships.Didn't you see those people at the dance tonight?How happy are they?If you and I can cooperate, we can also be happy together.If you are willing to endure hard work and not be happy, that is your freedom.But if I don't get you, my thoughts of the past few months will be wasted, and I will have no hope in this life.I will die before you. "Knelt down while talking. Jiang Shuying said: "What are you doing? Stand up and speak if you have something to say. "Hong Muxiu said: "If you don't agree to my marriage, I won't get up.Not only do I have no face to face with others, but I also have no face to see you.My happiness in this life depends on your words, Shuying!Do you have the heart not to promise me? Can't you pity me at all?Once you leave, I have only two paths, one is to become a monk, and the other is to commit suicide. "Speaking, the shorter the voice, the more miserable it was. Tears actually fell, so she raised her sleeves and wiped the tears on her face. Jiang Shuying said: "This is not a tragic thing, why are you crying? "When Hong Muxiu saw what she said, he burst into tears. Sobbing and sobbing, making a fuss.Jiang Shuying was sitting on a chair, and he was crying on the corner of the chair.Jiang Shuying wanted to explain a few words in detail, but he couldn't lift his head from crying and had no words to say, which really made Jiang Shuying helpless.I had to say: "You are not just crying all the time, you can talk when you have something to say." Hong Muxiu said: "Shuying, have you agreed to my request?" Jiang Shuying said: "I also have my own difficulties, you Let me tell you slowly, just sit up and sit down. If you look like this, if the old lady came in and saw it, she would be ashamed. "Hong Muxiu said: "Then I don't care.If you don't agree, I won't get up. "Jiang Shuying frowned and stamped her feet: "How can I speak when you look like this? " Seeing her appearance, Hong Moxiu was almost relieved, and then stood up.Jiang Shuying said: "I am very grateful for your kindness to me. But..." When Hong Muxiu heard her say the word but, he quickly stopped her and said, "I know everything about you." As long as you agree to my marriage, no one has the right to interfere with you. " Jiang Shuying said: "Although no one interferes with me, my own conscience can interfere with me." Hong Moxiu said: "If I show my sincerity to you, can't I still get some sympathy from you? Otherwise, why did you agree to me?" Your conscience will interfere with your marriage?" Jiang Shuying said: "I didn't say that. Don't you know that I know someone named Zhang?" Hong Moxiu said: "What does it matter if you know him? There are always a few friends. Even if the friends are close, they can’t interfere with their marriage affairs.” Jiang Shuying said: “Do you know my relationship with him?” Hong Moxiu said: “I know everything, you don’t need to say it If you can't agree to my request, you can just say 'no', as long as you say this and cut off my delusions, I will naturally have my plan." Jiang Shuying has lived in Hong's house for a long time, and has received all kinds of preferential treatment from Hong Muxiu, and her heart has softened by half. This is the one who cannot firmly refuse.In addition, Hong Muxiu is a secretary in the ministry, and he is very satisfied with the material supplies.Zhang Minsheng is just a poor student.In the meantime, of course Hong Muxiu is desirable, this is the second one that cannot be firmly rejected.When it comes to feelings, Hong Muxiu's current situation is like a life-and-death struggle, and this is the third person who cannot be firmly rejected. But because of this, I always want Hong Muxiu to forgive me and not ask for marriage.If you want to say "no" by yourself, you don't have the courage.But as far as agreeing, although Zhang Minsheng and I are not formally engaged, the two must become husband and wife, and both of them have tacitly agreed.Even in terms of friends, everyone often jokes and jokes, and it has become an open secret.At this time, I want to abandon the surname Zhang. Firstly, I can't bear it, secondly, I'm afraid of making troubles, and thirdly, I'm afraid of outsiders' comments.Therefore, I can't decide on the words "Yun" and "Wan".When Jiang Shuying hesitated as much as possible, Hong Muxiu held her hand, acting earnestly or anxiously, hoping that she would agree.The more Hong Muxiu was like this, the more she lost her mind.Hong Moxiu said, "How are you? If you keep silent, I will consider you acquiescing. "When he was speaking, he closed the door of the main room, put his back on the door, stood quietly, and listened to Jiang Shuying's orders. At this time, Jiang Shuying refused to obey, and there was only one way to do it. The next day, Jiang Shuying stopped talking about going to school. According to Hong Moxiu, the family lacked someone to preside over Mongolian government. Once Jiang Shuying got married, she didn't have to go to school, and if she didn't take the annual exam, it wouldn't be a problem.Since she didn't go to school that day, Scolian assumed that she would marry Hong, so he didn't want to say anything about her.But that afternoon, Zhang Minsheng came to the gatehouse of the school again and asked Shi Kelian to ask questions.Shi Kelian didn't let him go to the reception room, so he blocked Zhang Minsheng at the school gate, and said seriously: "Mr. Zhang, we are not friends. I just sent you a few messages because of Miss Jiang, not me. I like this kind of thing a lot. You should resolve your affairs by yourself. Mr. Zhang often comes to our school, which is very inappropriate. I want to say something straightforward, we should avoid suspicion!" Zhang Minsheng held the hat in his hand and bowed slightly.Said: "The reason why I dare to ask a few words is because Mies Shi is very brave. Besides here, I have no place to inquire about Mies Jiang, so I have to come to trouble. Since Mies Shi thinks it is inconvenient, I will never dare to come here in the future. Annoyance." After saying that, he pulled away and left.I was full of grief and resentment, and now I was said a few words by Shi Kelian, which made me feel even more uncomfortable.He was walking by himself, lowering his head to think about something, and when he looked up, there was a big wine vat beside the road, and he suddenly wanted to drink.So I walked into the hotel and sat down by the big tank. This kind of hotel is extremely rudimentary, with a pavement about ten feet wide, with two huge wine vats lined up on the east and west, half of which are buried in it.The surface of the tank is covered with a tank cover, which also looks like a tabletop.There are a few small dishes on it, such as fried twist, peanut beans, salted duck eggs and the like.In addition, there is a one-foot-square table placed horizontally in front of the small counter, and a few small dishes are also placed on it.I saw a man in his fifties, with a glass of wine placed on a small stool, with one hand hugging his knee, and the other holding the wine glass in a daze.Seeing that there are also a few sparse long beards on his mouth, he straightens his hands slowly from time to time.Zhang Minsheng was facing him, and he also peeked a few times.In this hotel, there is only the shopkeeper, there is no assistant, he is leaning against a few small pottery on the counter, reading tabloids there, muttering something. Seeing Zhang Minsheng come in and sit down, he quickly threw away the newspaper, and asked with a smile, "You're here, drinking?" Wearing a western-style coat, not a customer, probably the first time to the big wine tank, said with a smile: "We don't have any drinkers here. After a while, a roast pork seller will come. You can cut some roast meat to eat." Zhang Minsheng said: "Okay! You bring the wine first." The shopkeeper made a croissant jug of wine in the pottery altar, put it in front of him, and brought over a set of cups and chopsticks.At this moment, Zhang Minsheng looked at the man who was drinking again. He was wearing a sheepskin black cloth mandarin jacket with the sleeves rolled up.Wearing a green jade bracelet on his wrist, he is quite an old-fashioned figure.But look at his arms, the muscles are strong, and the fingers are yellow and black, round and thick, not like a gentleman.He had a pair of eyes, but lowered his eyelids to look at people, as if he refused to show his eyes.There are several white pockmarks on a horse's face, and the face is full of alcohol, the face is rosy, and it is full of energy.Zhang Minsheng took a look, although this person was not wearing long clothes, he was very imposing, probably not a lowly person, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what kind of person he was.As a result, he put his own thoughts aside and kept peeking at him.I drank half a jug of wine in a dull mood, and the seller of roast pork head came in with a small wooden basin on his back, put the basin on the ground, squatted down and raised his head and asked: "Sir, do you want meat? Zhang Minsheng laughed and said, "I'm not a gentleman. How many gentlemen come to drink in the big wine tank?" After saying this, even the beard who was drinking laughed.Then he said: "Your elder brother is right, but you look like you, and people call you sir everywhere." Zhang Minsheng patted his clothes and said, "Maybe it's because of this old cloak?" Bought a large piece of pork head.The butcher cut it up, Zhang Minsheng shared half of it, brought it to the bearded man, and said: "Old man, this is for you to drink." The man said: "We don't know each other, do you invite me?" Zhang Minsheng smiled and said: "I got to know you after I invited you." The man said, "You brother speaks happily. I'll make you a friend. Let's sit together and have a drink, okay?" Zhang Minsheng heard about it and moved the food Come over and drink on the opposite side.After talking with him, I found out that this man was called Yuan Weidao, and he was an escort in the former Qing Dynasty.There is nothing to do now, relying on his son to support him.He only said that his son was a technical teacher in a school.Zhang Minsheng said: "Is your son Mr. Yuan Jingwu? Old man, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Yuan Weidao said with a smile: "Just now you said that there is no one called Mr. in this big wine tank. Why did you call Mr. too? Seeing him talking, Zhang Minsheng was very happy, so he was a little happy. He had a quarrel with him all afternoon, drinking and eating meat, and asked Yuan Jingwu's location. He made an appointment for a meeting tomorrow. At this time, the faint yellow sunlight shone on the west wall of the house, and there was no yang energy in the air.The northwest wind, carrying dust flying high, blows towards people's faces, making people unable to lift their heads when walking.On the sleeves and back of the shirt, I only felt a burst of cold air.Zhang Minsheng wanted to go to Hong Muxiu's house with Jiu Xing to question Jiang Shuying face to face.At this time, the wine was blown by the wind, rippling in my chest, and I couldn't hold it anymore.So he called a rickshaw and got on it, and went straight home.Just walking to Wangfujing Street, there was a carriage, catching up to it, and happened to see inside the carriage, a man and a woman were sitting, smiling.That woman is none other than Jiang Shuying.Zhang Minsheng didn't know why, he just felt a rush of hot air coming from his chest, penetrating to the top of his heart, the world was spinning for a while, he almost fell off the rickshaw.The carriage moved faster, and after a while, it had already gone in front of the rickshaw.It happened that the glass window behind the carriage did not draw down the curtains, looking inside the carriage, Jiang Shuying and the man sat side by side, whispering and talking very intimately from time to time.Zhang Minsheng just sneered, humming uncontrollably from his nose.The carriage stopped at the back door of Dong'an Market, Jiang Shuying helped the man get off the carriage, and walked into Dong'an Market side by side.
