At this time, Mrs. He had already had a boy named Xiao Beibei.The word "Bei Bei" is transliterated from the English word "baby", and he is almost one year old.The nurse was holding the little Beibei standing at the door and watching the street. He was wearing a short and small navy suit, showing his fat and bare arms and calves.The red hair on his head was about half an inch long, and curled up on his head. Seeing his father coming, he squinted and smiled, and waved his hands in the air.He Jianchen stepped forward and kissed him on the forehead, then walked in with his arms in his arms.Walking into the house, Mrs. He came out to greet her. The first thing she said was, have you eaten?He took the hat easily.He Jianchen said: "We have eaten. We took the apricot orchard to visit Mu Guiyingli." Mrs. He said: "I ate in that small restaurant again, I am afraid there is not a clean towel handle. "So he smiled and said to Wu Bibo: "Do you still have to wipe your face?"

Wu Bibo nodded and said: "Very good, very good! But my sister-in-law will be troubled when I come here." Mrs. He turned away, and the old lady scooped up a basin of washing water, and Mrs. He also came with fragrant soap.Wu Bibo knew that Mrs. He wanted He Jianchen to wash his face, but he only dabbed a little light, so he just wiped it carelessly.He Jianchen kissed the little Beibei on the forehead, handed him to the nurse to hold him, but washed and mopped him for a while.The washbasin was brought over, Mrs. He took a green porcelain cup, poured a cup of tea, and placed it in front of He Jianchen.He Jianchen looked at her, Mrs. He looked back with a smile, stopped her feet a few times, and then said to Wu Bibo: "I really should hit him, I have a guest here, I forgot." Then put the cup on the table In front of Wu Bibo, he looked at the tea in the cup, it was green and shaded, with a slight fragrance of chrysanthemums.Yin smiled and said to He Jianchen: "When you entered the gate, as soon as Xiao Beibei stretched out her hand, my heart skipped a beat. Until I smelled this cup of fragrant tea, I had four or five thoughts, and the wind flew by. You and sister-in-law , although it is unusual to respect each other as a guest, but as far as ordinary people are concerned, there is some family happiness." Mrs. He was looking for another teacup, poured a cup of chrysanthemum tea, and placed it in front of He Jianchen, seeing Wu Bibo speak , eyes only pay attention to their own actions, it is already clear.

Yin smiled and said: "Jianchen comes back every day, I always serve him like this, I think he has worked hard, so I should comfort him, so..." He Jianchen said with a smile: "Come on, come on, he is feeling lonely, you She even deliberately put on face for me, Bibo, don't believe that she is so polite, it is rare to see her several times a year." Wu Bibo laughed and said: "Are you afraid that I will be jealous? If you want to get rid of troubles, you don't need me. Everyone has their own reasons. Don't be envious People." He Jianchen said: "You are contradicting yourself when you speak. Just now you said that you had four or five feelings, and they passed by like lightning, and now you say that each has its own reasons. Don't envy anyone." Mrs. He laughed and said: "Wu Sir, why don't you get married?" Wu Bibo said: "Sister-in-law's question is strange, how can I get married by myself?" Mrs. He pouted and said with a smile: "Young people nowadays, even if they talk about social openness, they really talk about it. It's not public at all. People say that Mr. Wu has a girlfriend, but Mr. Wu himself never mentioned it." He Jianchen said: "Your words are getting more and more unreasonable. When socializing is open, boyfriend and girlfriend, this is It's even more common. How can you get married if you have a girlfriend? Does it mean that you get married as many times as you know girlfriends?" Wu Bibo laughed and said, "This is He Jianchen's fair words." He Jianchen said: "Just gossip , Forgot all the business. Let me ask you, what happened to the work I entrusted you to the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" Wu Bibo said: "My poor relative, seeing that the money is open, has promised to treat us to dinner in the park. The matter is completely decided, and you can also give Xingyuan a meal."

Mrs. He said: "Jian Chen, when you went out, didn't you act as a matchmaker for Mr. Yang? How is it?" He Jianchen frowned and said, "Hey! I don't want to mention this matter anymore. This is a negative love triangle , It’s really sour to say.” Wu Bibo held the teacup, sipping it slowly.His eyes looked at a pot of bonsai on the table, even though he was smiling slightly and lost in thought.Mrs. He said: "Mr. Wu, what are you laughing at? Is there any way?" Wu Bibo said with a smile: "I think in this new type of marriage, some women are willing to have problems, but no men are willing to have problems."

He Jianchen said: "That's not necessarily true." Wu Bibo said: "Why not? I only hear that men propose to women, but I don't hear women propose to men. Moreover, when a man proposes, as long as the woman agrees, the matter will be done. Isn't it a proof. Not only that, a man can't bear to embarrass a woman. As long as a woman has the intention of loving a man, the man will always soften. So instead of proposing marriage with Xingyuan, it is better to propose to Mrs. Smith As long as Ms. Shi agrees to the marriage, Xingyuan will not refuse to agree. If he does not agree, he and Ms. Shi have a very good relationship. It would be too much for my friend. Can he bear it? Besides, Ms. Shi has no father or mother. Mother, Yuan is also a handsome person. First, Xingyuan can't say two words. The reason why he didn't want to do it was because of Ms. Li. But this matter is what Ms. Li wants them to succeed. It doesn't matter I'm sorry." After hearing this, Mrs. He thought it was reasonable.Yin said: "I also know this Ms. Zhi very well. Tomorrow, I will go to her school to see her, and find out how she is doing. If she is willing, then tell Mr. Yang, maybe it will work." Wu Bibo said: "I'm right, isn't it? It's like drawing a picture. You always have to draw the outline of the overall situation first, and then you can finish it with a wave of the pen." He Jianchen said with a smile: "Bibo likes to study art very much now. Just talking about painting, I have a fan and I want to find someone to paint, is there anyone on your way who can paint?" When he said this, taking advantage of Bibo's inattention, he gave his wife a wink.Mrs. He understood, but then said: "Western paintings on fans are not very attractive, but Chinese paintings are better. Is there such a person on Mr. Wu's way?" Wu Bibo saw his wife talking seriously, Not with a smile, but believe it.At that time, he promised to obey: "What kind of painting do you want to draw? Color brush or ink brush?" He Jianchen said: "I want Zhang Shanshui, ink brush and color brush don't matter." Wu Bibo said: "That's also very good. It's easy, why do you think I can't do it. But I don't know when you want it?" He Jianchen said: "The weather is very hot now, the fan is at the right time, naturally the sooner the better." Wu Bibo said: "Okay! Take it today, Let's have dinner together tomorrow, and I'll bring it to you." He Jianchen said without a smile on his face, "That's good, I want to paint Chinese quintessence paintings, and they must be seniors. That old gentleman needs to sign the payment."

Wu Bibo grinned, looked at He Jianchen and said, "Look at it. That's what makes people happy." Sure enough, He Jianchen went to the back room, handed Wu Bibo a fan carved with antique carved sandalwood bones, and said: "This thing is elegant, and the old man likes it at first glance." Wu Bibo didn't pay attention at all, talked for a while, and went away with the fan.Mrs. He smiled and said: "I understand what you mean, why doesn't he know anything?" He Jianchen smiled and said: "Let's not be conceited."I don't know if they fell into our trap! "Mrs. He said:" I believe what he said about Ms. Smith. Tomorrow, I will go to Mrs. Smith's school. What do you think? "He Jianchen nodded.

On the next day, He Jianchen didn't mention this, after dinner, Mrs. He was ready to go.She is a student fanatic, and now she is going to a girls' school, and she has to dress up as a student, and has changed into a blue robe with plum blossoms on a white background.A yellow tender silk scarf was tied around his neck, and he wore brown leather shoes and beige stockings.The hem of the robe was extremely small, when he walked up, his knees were only propped up so that the front of the clothes protruded and the back was wrapped, He Jianchen unconsciously said "ah". Mrs. He was holding a rhinestone hair clip, standing straight in front of the mirror, and clipping her double-hooked hair there.When she heard He Jianchen groan, she turned around and asked, "Why, don't you want me to go out?" He Jianchen smiled and said, "Don't twist your body like this. In this way, with the clothes wrapped around your body, you will find your original shape more .I'm not a painter, I'm a painter, I don't need to go out to find curvaceous beauty. I'll discuss it with you, free the hem of your clothes, don't be too small, I see you walking, you can't move your thighs It’s really uncomfortable. It’s okay to walk, but when I run, I really look like a robber in Li Qixi’s play on the stage. When I walk, the high-heeled shoes hop and hop, as if they are wearing shackles.” Mrs. He said “bah” With a voice, he said: "What kind of gossip, now everyone is wearing the same style and saying that it looks good, but you don't want to look at it. What kind of liberation, I never went to a school, and you don't want me to be a female student " Mrs. He was in a hurry when she spoke.It is necessary to rush out the Suzhou dialect.He Jianchen also loves women who speak Suzhou dialect the most, every time Mrs. He gets into a little awkward situation with him, he would be happy, so he just smiled and said nothing.After thinking about it, Mrs. He understood, so she stopped talking, turned around, and looked around for something.He Jianchen said: "Turning around like this, what are you looking for?"

Mrs. He said: "Where is my fountain pen?" He Jianchen said: "You should slap your tongue, don't you? Tell people not to think of you as a female student, and learn from a female student yourself, just for fear that you won't be like me. You don't believe me, go to a shop on the street When shopping, the custodian calls you Miss, not Madam." Mrs. He said, "Let's stop talking nonsense. Today I'm going to invite Ms. Shi to Wulong Pavilion in Beihai. I'm late, so please go pick me up." Me, can I do it?" He Jianchen said: "It's early now. There is still half a day left, not enough for you to play?" What he meant was that he couldn't pick it up.But before he finished speaking, Mrs. He had already gone far.

Mrs. He had been to this Mingde Industrial Girls School twice before, so when she entered the door, when a female student walked in, she kept barging into Shi Kelian's dormitory.The door of her dormitory was half-closed, and when she opened the door and stretched her head to look, she saw Shi Kelian wearing a waist-length short jacket, loose shorts, and a pair of half shoes, lying on a wicker chair with her left hand Holding a half-volume thread-bound book and a palm fan in his right hand, he fanned it repeatedly.As soon as the door slammed, she looked up, threw the book and stood up with a smile.Said: "Ah, it turned out to be Mrs. He, which is rare."

Mrs. He came in and said, "Why is it so quiet in your school, there is no sound at all." Shi Kelian said: "It is summer vacation now, and there are very few students staying in the hall, so it is so quiet. Usually this room is 5 I sleep alone, but now I sleep alone. Look, how happy it is." When he said that, he asked Mrs. He to sit on the bed and poured tea from the teapot on the table.It was because the teapot was dry that no drop of water came out.Skellyn opened the door and was about to call the old lady.Mrs. He said again and again: "No need, I don't drink tea now. Do you have time, let's go to Beihai together."

Shi Kelian said with a smile: "In addition to sleeping and eating, I spend all my time." Mrs. He said: "Very good, very good, please change your clothes, and we will leave together." Shi Kelian said: "Big The long road is coming, you should rest.' Mrs. Ah said: "Just take a car when you go out, it doesn't matter how long the road is.If you want to rest, go to Beihai to rest. "Skellyn said:" What's the matter, such a busy way?It's rare to come, but when I come, I don't want to sit for a while. "Mrs. He smiled and said: "It is because it is so rare that I am willing to play with you for a while. You are welcome, let's go. "Because she urged her so hard, Shi Kelian really didn't entertain her, and went all the way to Beihai with her. They entered the gate and walked through Qiongdao Chunyin. Mrs. He felt tired and said with a smile: "I'm afraid to go, let's go to Yilan Hall and take a boat." Shi Kelian said: "Go this far The more tired you are on the road, the less you will exercise. The less you exercise, the more you will be afraid of being tired. In the future, your body will not be strong at all, and you will get sick when the wind blows and rains." Mrs. He smiled. Said: "It's not today's day to exercise. Don't encourage me, encourage me, I want to take a boat too." Shi Kelian also smiled and said: "When you meet someone like you, even if you have golden and jade good advice to persuade you, it's okay In vain. Well, it's up to you. "The two walked to the pier of Yilantang. It happened that there was a small boat and it was about to leave. After buying the ticket, Shi Kelian stepped on the bow first, but Mrs. He was holding a cheongsam by the hem. She slowly moved a few steps on the pier until she was close to the boat, and then stretched out one foot as if to try it out. Stepping forward, Skellyn took her by one arm, and walked towards her. In the area around her arms, Mrs. He couldn't stand without noticing it. She was already tilted to this side, and that foot walked over involuntarily. Mrs. He didn't expect her to do this, and she was sweating from fright. Shi Kelian acted as if nothing happened, and led her into the cabin all the way.Yin smiled and said: "No matter what in the world, the more you worry about it, the more timid you are. If you work hard, nine out of ten times you will succeed. Do you believe me?" Mrs. He settled down and said with a smile: "I believe you Talk.' When I got off, I looked into the full cabin and saw many people, so I said, "Let's talk again. "Everyone sat in silence for a while, and the boat had already reached the center of the sea. At this time, the lotus leaves all over the sea were layer upon layer, like clouds growing, all green, without any glint of water. The lotus leaves among the lotus leaves The lotus blooms just right, high and low, all higher than the lotus leaves by a foot or several inches. When the wind blows, it looks like thousands of red birds flying. In the middle of the lotus leaves, a boat travels, only Wen Lai wide, and there are no lotus leaves. , the lotus leaves on both sides turned into a green bank, which seems to be a small ditch. The sun is drying the lotus leaves, and a kind of green fragrance is steamed, which can be smelled from time to time when sitting on the boat. On the railing, just as she was fascinated, Mrs. He shook her shoulder and said, "Look, there is an acquaintance over there. "Skolian saw a boat coming in front, and there was a person standing on the bow, nodding and smiling towards this side. It was Yang Xingyuan, holding a waving fan in his hand, waving in his hand, and kept beating With the canopy on the boat, her attitude seemed to be very leisurely. The two boats got closer and closer, very close, and passed by each other. Mrs. He smiled and said, "When did Mr. Yang come?How to go there? "Yang Xingyuan said:" I came early, now I'm going back. "Mrs. He said:" How come you go back so early? "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "I'm alone, too boring, let's go back. "Mrs. He said:" Now that we are here, Jian Chen will also come, so go back later, okay? "Yang Xingyuan said:" I'm over there now, and I come back again. It takes an hour to go back and forth, which is too time-consuming.Why are you two here? Skellyn nodded with a smile. When talking, the two sides gradually moved away from each other, so they had to look at each other from afar.After a while, the boat stopped under the shade of a row of big willow trees.So Shi Kelian and Mrs. He went ashore together.At this time, the number of people around Wulong Pavilion gradually increased, and people came and went under the shade of the trees, which was very lively.Shi Kelian said: "Let's not go forward, the pavilion is full of people, messy." Mrs. He said: "Hey! You talk about liberation every day, men and women are equal, and you are so afraid of people." Shi Kelian said: "No Afraid of people. Didn’t we come to take a rest in the shade? How do we squeeze into the crowd?” The two walked along the willow shade, talking on the bank, but hesitated as they walked.Suddenly someone behind said: "Miss, it's nice and cool here, just sit here." When Mrs. He looked back, she saw a guy wearing a half-cut blue cloth gown, with a long handkerchief on his shoulder, standing there. In front of him, he didn't pay attention to him, and he smiled again: "It's good here, there is no one, I'll bring you a table and chairs." Mrs. He said to Skellian: "Why don't we just sit here for a while." Without saying a word, the guy had already yelled at the tea cabinet on the side of Liuyin: "Two!" In an instant, a roll of white handkerchief flew in midair, and with a bang, the guy caught it in the air. .He unwrapped the towel rolls and gave Mrs. He Shi Kelian one for each of them.The two took the towel handles from others, and they were too embarrassed not to sit down, so they had to listen to the buddy's arrangement and sat down here. When Shi Kelian sat down, he stepped on a clump of green grass, and the back of the chair leaned against a tree. He suddenly remembered that when he and Li Dongqing were drinking tea here last year, a Yang Xingyuan joined him. It's an easy time to start a formal conversation, and I don't think it's been a year.That incident seemed like yesterday, Li Dongqing was already thousands of miles away.Scollen was lost in thought, and stood with the chair in his hands, but didn't know to sit down.When Mrs. He saw it, she laughed and said, "Miss Shi, what are you thinking about? At that time, I was sitting here drinking tea with Ms. Li, and in a blink of an eye, I didn't realize it was a year." Mrs. He said: "Were you two that day? Is there anyone else?" Mrs. He absolutely didn't know, That time there was Yang Xingyuan sitting there, but when she asked in vain, Shi Kelian blushed for a while being forced by her.Fortunately, there were three people sitting there that day, and it was the first time I had a conversation with Yang Xingyuan, so there was no need to hide it. My chair was not facing Mrs. He, but was facing the water. Lotus, said: "That Mr. Yang was also present that day. At this time last year, I didn't know this Mr. Yang very well. I think Ms. Li and him have a very good relationship. As a result, there is no need to guess. We were on the boat just now. I met that Mr. Yang, and now I am sitting at the same place where I talked last year, but Miss Li, I don’t know when we met. She treated me so well, just like my own sister. I am very grateful to her, so I met this If this is a memorable place, I will be greatly stimulated." When Mrs. He heard her words, she knew that she had misunderstood, so she quoted a lot of words to defend herself.I am planning in my stomach how to cover up this.Now she is focusing on Li Dongqing personally, so she just took over this question.Yin said: "I am also like this. Although she is only one year older than me, my knowledge and knowledge are ten thousand times worse than hers. She is honest and blunt, and advises me when things happen." Shi Kelian said: "Teach us That's all. The most rare thing is that she always speaks in an amiable manner when talking to people. Not to mention that her words are reasonable, even her sincere attitude can move people." Mrs. He said: "That's exactly the case. Since After she left Beijing, I thought there were two people who were most embarrassing. The first one was naturally Mr. Yang, and the second one was me. According to you, now you are one too." Shi Kelian held a cup of tea in his hand, The shadow of the willow tree above the head is being reflected in the cup. She looked at the shadow of the tree in the cup and was lost again.Mrs. He said something, but she didn't hear it. Mrs. He is a very smart person, and she is very familiar with the changes in the love scene. Just silently. The two of them sat for a while, watching those small pleasure boats walking in the water. At this time, there was a small boat picking young lotus leaves in the garden, which propped straight into the depth of the opposite lotus leaf.The whole body of the boat was invisible, and the two people on board seemed to be skating in the lotus leaves.Shi Kelian said with a smile on his fingers: "You see, these two people are very interesting." Mrs. He said: "It's not good. If two teenage girls are replaced, they will look like the beauties in the picture." Before he could say a word, he saw a snow-white wild duck flying up into the sky with a plop, less than a foot away from the front of the boat.This one just flew two or three feet high, and then another one flew up.Two wild ducks flew over the Jinaoyukou Bridge, comparing their wings.Mrs. He laughed and said: "This pair of wild ducks are hidden in the lotus, and they may take a nap there. Once these two people make trouble, they will interrupt people's dreams." Shi Kelian said with a smile: "Miss Li and her I just like to say this kind of nonsense, and what you said is a bit similar." Mrs. He said: "How can it be different? This is called like a teacher, there must be a younger brother." Shi Kelian said with a smile: " I said the same in front of Ms. Li. I said that she was sad about the moon and flowers, almost in a daze. She said that although she was in a daze, but expanded and expanded, it was a kind of philanthropic love. People with this kind of heart, It is a person full of emotion. You see, this kind of statement, she also makes sense, can we object to her? "Mrs. He said: "It's because she read too many books, so she gained insights.We read less, so we can't compare with her. "Skellyn said:" Even so, there is something about her, and her temperament is too withdrawn.In this kind of society, it is too lonely to survive. " Mrs. He said: "No. The strangest thing about her is that she is very unreasonable in some ways. In this era, everyone is always worried that they will not find a suitable person and cannot have a happy marriage. She has found a suitable person. A happy marriage has to be celibate, I think this fact is a bit wrong." Skellian said: "I sympathize with her again on this matter. A happy marriage is a blessing for people, but who can guarantee it?" You can be happy to the end. If you are celibate, anyway, I am alone, and there is no problem." Mrs. He said: "If you don't get married because of this kind of concern, wouldn't it be a waste of food because of choking? You have to know that marriage is just a man. One woman, if one of the two walks on the road to happiness, it is half successful. The opponent is more accommodating. There is 70% to 80% hope, so why not succeed?" Shi Kelian said with a smile: "According to what Mrs. He said , This is simply not a problem." Mrs. He smiled and said: "It is not a problem, who said it is a problem? Speaking of this, I have a very good analogy. Once upon a time, there was a pair of cousins, The relationship is very good. This cousin is a nerd and doesn't know what love is." Shi Kelian said with a smile: "Mrs. He has always liked to read Gu'er Ci at home. Probably this is a new material obtained from Gu'er Ci." Mrs. He said: "Don't worry about where I got it. , let me finish. This cousin was originally studying at home, and then he went to study at his aunt's house. Unintentionally, he met his cousin. Over time, this bookworm wanted to marry that cousin. His uncle knew I laughed and said that an honest person would have such a meaning. I didn't expect it. Because I saw a peach blossom cluster beside a clump of bamboo in the yard, I gave him a pair. The pair was "Zhubang Peach blossoms, gentlemen are also greedy for red apricot girls." Shi Kelian said with a smile: "This gentleman refers to bamboo, and red apricot girl refers to peach blossoms, which is a double entendre." Mrs. He said: "I said the same thing. But I also agree with Ms. Lee talked about it, she is very shallow, do you think it is strange?" Shi Kelian said: "Leave her alone, what do you say about that nerd?" Mrs. He said: "That nerd has read a lot of books. , but he didn’t have such a talent, so he couldn’t think of it. After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn’t think of it. At night, he thought, this pair was learned by his uncle through testing him. If he couldn’t get it right, he would never marry that Cousin. So I couldn’t sleep, so I just walked around outside the study and in the yard. There is a willow tree in the yard. The moon that has just returned shines on the top of the tree, and the moonlight can pass through the willow tree. Come here, that kind of clear light, reflecting the green color, is very beautiful. He had an idea, suddenly remembered, and immediately ran to the upper room to knock on the door of his uncle's room, saying: "I'm right, I'm right"!Uncle is sleeping soundly, let him wake up.He quickly opened the door and asked what was the matter. "Skellyn said with a smile: "You describe it too much. If there is a pair, it will not be too late to come out tomorrow, why did you rush to make a pair overnight? "Mrs. He said:" What's not clear?Men are always in such a hurry when it comes to proposing marriage.When the man's uncle asked, he said he was right, and his uncle couldn't help laughing.Just ask him how to deal with the Fa.The nerd pointed to the moon in the sky and said: "The moon looks at the willows, and Chang'e seems to love the man in green clothes." After hearing these seven words, his uncle knew that he was also right. He nodded with a smile and said: "Not really. It's hard work, finally you handed in the test paper. ' On the second day, the uncle wanted to find out what his daughter meant, so he told her about this pair.The daughter said: "It's good to show up, but it's not loud'." Shi Kelian said with a smile: "Blow it up, nerds have been busy for a while." Mrs. He said: "Not at all. The girl picked up the pen and changed the word for "peeping" into "Chuan", which seems to have changed the original character.As far as the meaning of the text is concerned, there is nothing to say, so he almost betrothed his daughter to this nerd.Judging from this story, I think that if you have a happy marriage, you must not miss it.Don't talk too far.Just like this willow tree, if it grows outside the stable, beside the stinking ditch, it will be meaningless.Now it grows beside a big water, and there is a Banqiao water pavilion to match it, just like a picture.If there is another round of moon at night, it will be really beautiful.If it is said that this willow tree does not love happiness, it must be moved outside the stable, or to the side of the smelly ditch, is that human?So I am extremely opposed to what you just said. "Skellyn said with a smile: "Mrs.But how can a person be compared with a willow tree. I think your words are somewhat illogical. Mrs. He smiled and said, "You are completely a scholar."Talk about logic.If you had to tell me this sentence a year earlier, it would be in vain, I don't understand at all.Later, I often heard Jian Chen talk about logic, and I knew what was going on.Logically speaking, it doesn't make sense for me to say that. Just like the two of us, we have to choose a good place to drink a bowl of tea by the water.It can be seen that no matter who, no matter where they are, they all want to find a safe and beautiful place.Why not be safe and beautiful when it comes to marriage? "Skellyn said:" Your words are also very reasonable, but everyone's environment is different, so we can't generalize it. "Mrs. He smiled and said:" I want to say something very presumptuous. Considering Miss Shi's environment, how should we deal with the marriage problem? " Unexpectedly, she said a few words, went straight to the point, and mentioned himself, blushing, pondering for a while, unable to say a word, just staring at the lotus in the water in a daze.Mrs. He said: "Although we haven't met many times, we have very similar temperaments. I'll tell you the truth today. I saw Miss Shi alone, and I sympathized with you very much. But I guess, Miss Shi must be sure about the future.I'd love to know a little, or help a little if I can. "Skellyn was forced by her, and he was forced to speak, because he sighed and said: "Cough!How can I be sure, one day at a time.But I don’t worry about it either. It’s useless to worry about it all the time. "Mrs. He smiled and said," what you said misunderstood me.I'm asking you what to do in the future? "Skellyn said:" I am also talking about the future. "Mrs. He said with a smile," the future I'm talking about is somewhat different from other people's futures. "Skolian smiled and said: "The future is the future, so what's the difference? Mrs. He smiled and said, "You are just pretending to be stupid. What else do you not understand?"Let me tell you the truth, I invite you to visit Beihai today, I am interested, and I want to be a lobbyist in front of you.I have something to say first, it doesn't matter if I agree or not, but don't be annoyed. "Hearing what she said, Shi Kelian blushed even more. He grabbed the handkerchief on his lapel and just wiped his face. Mrs. He said: "This is a lifelong event, are you still ashamed? "Skellyn's face darkened and said:" Mrs. He can say anything, I will never be annoyed, but my ambition has already been set, and what you say is useless. Mrs. He said: "Have you made up your mind?I would like to ask, what is the law? " Shi Kelian said: "I am willing to study." Mrs. He smiled and said: "After talking for a long time, the quarrel is still wrong. If you study, go to school, what does it have to do with marriage?" Shi Kelian said: " Why doesn't it matter?" After saying this, she still had nothing to say, she put one arm on the table, held her head with a handkerchief in her hand, and still stared at the lotus in the water in a trance.Seeing her like that, Mrs. He pursed her lips and smiled, because she said, "Miss Shi, I said it right away. I didn't initiate it. It was Mr. Li's uncle, Mr. Fang, who brought it up. After he arrived in Beijing, he I have been to my place twice and asked me to tell you about this matter. I think there are too many turnovers here, so it is not easy to mention it, but two days ago, Mr. Li wrote a letter directly to Jian Chen and The two of us need to handle it separately. I think there is probably no problem with that aspect, and I have to ask you what you mean in this aspect before we can say it.” Shi Kelian said: "Who is this side? Who is that side? I don't understand." Mrs. He said: "You are this side. We were in the middle of the water just now, and we met Mr. Yang on the opposite boat. That's the aspect. Did you understand that?" Shi Kelian thought that Mrs. He would not be able to tell the depths when she asked back, but unexpectedly she said it honestly without being polite.Yin said: "This is nonsense, how do you believe it?" Mrs. He said: "How is it nonsense?" Shi Kelian said: "Although I know this Mr. Yang, but the friendship is very shallow, so I decided I can't talk about this matter. Besides, the relationship between Mr. Yang and Mies Li is known to all friends, so how could this kind of talk be involved in me." Mrs. He said: "Because of this reason, it is nonsense The first level, this matter was not initiated by you yourself, but a group of warm-hearted friends who wanted to make it happen. The second level, I have already told you that Mr. Li avoided marriage problems by herself. Because I have no such hope, and I don't want to give this happy marriage to others, so she came forward as an introducer in person, and I hope you will take it. There are various advantages to her matter. First, that Mr. Yang is very kind. Well, it’s not disappointing. Second, Miss Shi has someone to cooperate with you, so she’s not as lonely as she is now. Third, Mr. Li himself is very happy.” Shi Kelian said: “Speaking of this In other words, Mies Li is very smart, but he is very confused about this matter. What does it mean to ask others to step up to what he wants to avoid? My surname is Shi, which is worthless, and should be filled for others. Mrs. He said: "Miss Shi, don't say that. If you want to say this, you will bury people's good intentions. Let's say it in peace, can people like Mr. Yang be equal to Miss Shi?" Shi Kelian said: "Although I am very ignorant, why do I say that Mr. Yang is not as good as me." Mrs. He said: "Is this person a bad temper?" Shi Kelian said with a smile: "How do you say such a thing? Besides Mr. Yang is young and mature, I admire it very much." Mrs. He said: "Otherwise, what's the matter with him, are you not satisfied with him?" Shi Kelian said: "The more you talk, the further you go. He and I are just ordinary friends, Well water does not violate river water, why am I dissatisfied with him?" Mrs. He said: "This is not true, and that is not true, then you have no reason to oppose the marriage." Shi Kelian said: "Why not?" Mrs. He said: "If there is, you can tell it and listen to it. If your reason is sufficient, I will not say any more.But there is one level, you don't want to involve Mr. Li anymore, because she has made it very clear that you can't talk about marriage issues. "Skellyn said:" This is my only reason. If I don't talk about this level, what else can I say? "Mrs. He said:" Good!I talked for a long time, and I got a result. What you mean is to embarrass Mr. Li.Now I will write to Mr. Li, asking her to spare ten days and half a month to come to Beijing in person and resolve all misunderstandings for you in person. What do you think of this method?I had already meant this, and asked her to speak for herself.But I'm afraid you have other opinions outside of this level.Now that I've explained it, that's all I can ask her to come.As for whether she can get a good result or not, it depends on her wrist. We friends who are in a hurry don't need to worry too much. "Schollian said:" I have traveled thousands of miles and asked people to come here, why bother? "Mrs. He said: "Then, can you agree without her coming? "Scollen couldn't help laughing, and said: "Your speaker is taken out of context, so I won't tell you. "Speaking, he twisted his body. Seeing that she was a little embarrassed, Mrs. He felt that it was very difficult to say something.Following her gaze, I saw that she was looking at a piece of white water among the lotus flowers in the west, and two little white wild ducks were floating on the water.Mrs. He said: "Look at these two little wild ducks, they come and go, always in pairs. Is one person worse than a bird?" Shi Kelian still looked into the water, but said nothing.Mrs. He said: "This kind of marriage problem is a happy relationship in my life. I can do whatever I want, and I don't need to be polite at all. Whoever wants to be polite will be at a disadvantage. I often hear Jian Chen say,人生得一知已,可以死而无憾。若是遇着一个知己,男未婚,女未嫁,若不结合起来,那真是个傻子。”史科莲还是不言语,斟了一杯茶,回转身去捧着,斜望对面的景山,慢慢的喝着。何太太笑道:“两方我都是朋友,我很希望这事办成功,从明天起,我要努一努力,我也不要你们什么报酬,只别在我面前说谎,那就得了。”史科莲喝完了茶,扭转身来,将茶杯放在桌上。恰好和何太太四目相射,她就不由得一笑,因道:“我看你一个人叽叽咕咕说到什么时候为止?这真有味,好象一个傻子一样”。何太太笑道:“哼!就算我是傻子得了。但是我心口如一,有话可不放在心里不说。”史科莲点了一点头笑道:“好罢,我就算心口不如一罢。”何太太道:“什么时候有工夫,我打算请史小姐到我家里去吃便饭,史小姐肯赏这一个面子吗?”史科莲道:“请我吃饭,我是到的。但是不必专请我,最好是我哪天到府上去,撞上早饭,就吃早饭,撞上晚饭,就吃晚饭。” 何太太笑道:“撞上我们吃窝窝头,也就让我们拿窝窝头请客吗?那究竟不好。依我的意思,是要约定一个日子,好预备点菜,我也不请外人,就找几个极熟的人……” 史科莲道:“谢谢!谢谢!我是最怕正式赴席的。”何太太道:“一点也没有吃到我的,怎么就来了许多谢字?”史科莲笑道:“这就叫礼多人不怪了。”何太太探她的口风,她竟是不肯去,也就不再向下说。便谈了一些别的事,谈到后来,一轮红日,落在水西边树丛头上,水光反射着琼岛上的塔顶,金光灿灿,史科莲指看景山头上,过去一群乌鸦,因对何太太道:“时候不早,我要回学校去了。”何太太道:“在这里是闲坐,回去也是闲坐,有什么早晚。”史科莲道:“这时候回去,已经赶不上吃晚饭。再要晚些,厨子走了,要吃什么也弄不上来了。”何太太道:“就在这里弄点东西吃吃罢。”史科莲道:“你不必客气,府上到这儿路远,也可早回去。”何太太抿嘴笑道:“不要紧的,我家里有人来接呢。论到这一层,这又觉得结了婚的女子,有一点好处了。你瞧,他走来了。” 史科莲跟着何太太指着的一只手,向对面望了去,只见那游船码头上,果然是何剑尘缓步而来,不一会工夫,走到面前,史科莲起来让坐。何剑尘道:“请坐请坐,好久不见了。今天会着是难得的,我要清史小姐在这里吃晚饭。史小姐没什么事吗?”史科莲道:“我刚才和何太太提到,正要回去呢,趁着天色还没有黑,我要先告辞了。”说着这话,史科莲站起身来,牵了牵衣襟,就有要走的样子。何剑尘笑道:“这倒是我来的不好了。来了,就催着史小姐要走。”史科莲道:“我本来要走的,不信请你问何太太。”何太太道:“你不是怕回头一个人回家去,嫌孤单吗?回头我两个人一块儿送你回去,你看好不好?”史科莲道:“那何必呢?这时候我先走,省得二位送,不更好吗?”她于是将头微微弯着,对何剑尘道:“再会。”何太太连忙走上前,牵着她的手,笑道:“怎样?真要走。”史科莲道:“改日再谈罢。”于是二人牵着手,沿着海岸,向前走去。
