Chapter 14 1927 Tangerine - Tangerine

one By the end of the week, Professor S's house will have a party as usual.The school paid the money, and the surface was paid by Professor S. Some student leaders who were interested in refreshments were invited to the living room to talk about what happened in the school this week.Before the tea break, the students feel a little unhappy, so they can freely express their opinions or criticisms. Professor S accepts this opinion very politely, and immediately records it on the leather-bound handbook with a Parker pen, so as to prepare for the school meeting Go to the table to propose.Actually it's all a show.As soon as the chicken wontons were served, Professor S couldn't memorize them, and the students' opinions were overwhelmed by the heat of the dim sum.Even after eating snacks, you can still continue the discussion, but Yu Xingying should be Professor S's wife. After a cup of black tea, everyone felt that it was very natural for everyone to separate and go to the garden under the tree to talk by the pool. It's just like a meeting, so the results in Professor S's handbook are only half of the records every time.But this just proves that Saint Grace University is obviously full of student business. Even if there is a little unsatisfactory, the refreshment policy has taken effect, so don't be afraid.

At this kind of gathering, there is one person who talks about more money than the cost of each wonton and crispy dumpling. This is well understood by a few students.But it's about personal morality. In some places, the word "virtue" can only be said on the lips, just like the solemnity of a pastor, it is enough to put it on the face, so it is better not to say it.Moreover, it is also said that there is a certain type of people who have despised God just because someone has made a fuss about it, and those who do not follow the fuss say that they have despised God. As a result, there is no way to enter the kingdom of heaven, and it is dangerous. Don’t let the curse fall on your head. , I really don't want to talk about it.

The time is near the end of March, and the peach, plum and apricot flowers have many green seeds the size of soybeans behind the petals.The lilac blooms so densely that it seems that it has no meaning except to encourage young people's love, and adult young lovers secretly talk about love under its branches.The grass, short, grows under the lilac, it is a mattress, and it can only grow so neatly for a couple of lovers to sit on and do some mysterious things. In such a weather, a young man does not think that he has a mother or that he already has a lover by his side. He is only looking for a dozen opportunities to make a woman blush, and has no time to think about empty love.

There is still a regular meeting this week, and the male and female students still come to Professor S’s residence as before, get together, use a small silver spoon to scoop up the chicken wontons in the bowl, and eat ham cakes for the second time, three for each , Put it on a silver plate, women usually have a weak appetite, but now they eat evenly.After eating, black tea came out in an American porcelain cup with a picture of the Virgin Mary. The professor's wife sitting in the main seat spoke: "The weather is fine, and everyone can go to the garden to play all day!" "We still have a large basket of tangerines, which Mrs. Wu gave to my wife yesterday; probably my wife is going to have a treat today, so we'll keep everyone!"

Professor S smiled when he said that.This is the dignified smile of a Christian and a university professor in front of students. Students are clapping. It is worthwhile to have tangerines to eat. "The oranges are about to be eaten, or they will be spoiled in the hot weather," the professor's wife stood up and said, counting the number of guests at the table with her finger. As a result, the boys who had left the crowd to lie down on the sofa just now came over and returned to their original positions. "I want to count," the wife said, "I have a good idea. If I count which one of you has a girlfriend, you can get two or three more oranges. Because the weather is so hot, people go to talk to each other under the tree naturally. You can do it. If you don’t have girlfriends, you can accompany Mr. S to this living room to talk and have tea, so two oranges are enough for each of you.”

"That won't work. Everyone is the same. Mrs. S shouldn't love them very much. It's Mrs.'s fault that we don't have any friends here. Why didn't you tell us earlier? Even if we don't have any, we can ask Mrs. S to help us find them?" It is natural for men to salivate.As for the woman, who was originally alone, she blushed a long time ago. "What the teacher said was intended to protect a few imperialists!" This is a protest from a former student union chairman, and the words are beautiful. The other one, who was about to discuss some personal matters with Professor S, said: "When we accompany Mr. S, we also want to talk. Is it possible that only love talk can make people dry?"

"Then you have tea, milk, and cocoa, how convenient it is in the living room!" "But according to the conscience, if we don't have a lover, we should get a little more money on mandarin oranges, that's the way to go!" "..." This is a big question of gain and loss.And because it's okay to act coquettish in front of Professor S and his wife, so when the spear of reason is attacked on one side, the shield of reason on the other side is immediately erected.It is better for everyone to eat slowly. If the distribution method is not appropriate, everyone will not be able to disperse immediately.

"Okay, it's my fault. Those of you who accompanied me to talk with my teacher, I want my teacher to send you the same good snacks later, it's only fair." Professor S said. Fortunately, Professor S came to solve the problem, so I called the servant and took out the mandarin baskets and dispersed them. Twelve of the twenty-three got double, and the rest waited for something else. During this time, there was a person who endured the loss and did not speak, but when the tangerines were distributed in front of her, she only took two. "Why, is it difficult for the head of the communication section to be alone?" The teacher's wife smiled.

No.Seriously not.There were three of them who could be counted as enough to have a romantic conversation with her, but it was difficult to handle with three of them.She was clever enough to only take a single serving, which made it impossible for the three of them to argue.Everyone knew it at first, so they just laughed secretly. When the three saw this, they only took a single copy.Two of these three are studying politics, and one is Xiao Zhou, who was called a poet in school. Then, politics is obviously a failure, and the poet is also considered a lovelorn. Tomorrow, there will be another poem in the weekly magazine. Touching love prose poem too.

Da Fang Fang, who received the double share, picked up the tangerines in his handkerchief and walked away two by two. The rest were those who had failed in both aspects.But after a while, the number of people in the living room decreased by half again. This is because there are still two couples who already have friendship and don’t want everyone to know, so they sacrificed the mandarins and kept the secret. At this time, they still went to another place to talk privately to go. The weather is so good, it is a good time for poets to write poems with their hands behind their backs. Besides, he was frustrated, so Xiao Zhou went to the pool in the back garden by himself.

Misi F, the head of the communication section, left the living room alone when everyone was not paying attention.Generally, the minds of people who study politics are derived from a formula, so that when two people see their tangerines, they are attracted by poetry, and they dare not catch up to see their fate. Needless to say, Misi F found Xiao Zhou immediately. Xiao Zhou didn't know until Misi F came to him. "Why do you come here to play alone?" "then you?" one One sitting and the other standing smiled at each other, so the standing one leaned next to her and sat down. This time, the title of the next weekly poem changed. I'll say it again: it's almost the end of March, and the peach, plum, and apricot flowers have many green seeds the size of soybeans behind their petals.The lilac blooms so densely that it seems that it has no meaning except to encourage young people's love, and adult young lovers secretly talk about love under its branches.The grass, short, grows under the lilac, it is a mattress, and it can only grow so neatly for a couple of lovers to sit on and do some mysterious things. The side of the pool is considered to be a good place with a lot of trees and secluded at the top of Professor S's residence.Although these people are all walking towards this place, some small slopes are piled up here and there, but they block everyone's sight.The flowers are so lush like a forest like a curtain, and there are big tall willows covering the poolside so that the sky is not visible.I know that everyone is not far away, and people can hear you when you shout, but at this moment, everyone is biting their ears and saying something that makes the hearts of those who listen to it blush, and no one will come to hinder anyone. So everyone can do whatever they want. Looking back, Misi F turned around and went to the living room, saw a tangerine on a coffee table, her mouth was dry, so she put it aside and ate it bluntly.Everyone pays no attention.It's just that Misi F blushed when he met the eyes of a political student.Ganzi was put down on purpose by this political student, she understood, and just sneered.She guessed: "Next time someone will definitely suggest that some boring poems should not be frequently published in weekly magazines..."
