Chapter 3 Section 03

This room is a south room. Although it is said to be the largest guest room in the Daxin Hotel, it is actually just a side yard next to an old Chinese five-bay room.Probably because the owner of the hotel wanted to save money on a few carpenter's sheets, so he didn't partition it.After I rented this No. 48 room, I was very happy in my heart, because in my opinion, a very troublesome matter of moving can be solved safely and simply. Around ten o'clock the next morning, I woke up from the night dream, looked at the sunlight coming in from the steps in the room, and listened to the intermittent sounds of the tea room in the hotel outside the room, etc. , but I felt an inexplicable joy in my heart.So after we came together, I negotiated with the hotel owner, asked him to reduce the rent, and paid him half a month's rent in advance, then went back to the thatched pavilion in the park outside the city to unpack the suitcases, books, etc. moved over.

This day is Saturday, and there was originally a day show in Anyuan Park in the afternoon, but I was a little shy because I dragged on with them all night last night. After lunch, I went to the office for a while, then walked back to the hotel, and sat in the room thinking. The sunny day in late autumn is really too tempting. The sky peeping down from the courtyard and the joyous noise of the children in the market all tempt my wandering thoughts, making me sit alone in the room and feel A lot of unbearable depression.Reluctantly want to take out a few books I love to read to suppress Anxin, but after reading a few pages, my mind will think of the crowds on Beimen Street in the sun, and the people crowded together in front of the stage. The scenes of many frivolous teenagers in the past have gone up.

After walking up and down the room like a prisoner for a long time, I finally felt that I couldn't bear it anymore, so I took the fedora hat from the table and walked out of the hotel slowly.Out of the side street of the hotel, at the T-junction, I was calculating whether to go south or go north, when a hand suddenly came from behind and patted my shoulder twice, I was startled, and turned around Look, it turned out to be that little boy Chen Jun from last night. He approached me, and after saying a few words to congratulate me on moving, he laughed and said: "I just went to the hotel to ask, and I know that your luggage has been moved here. You are so agile! From now on, you are so close to the water, I'm afraid it will be a little dangerous."

Hehehe laughed for a while, and I blushed because of his smile, but my two feet followed him to the north unknowingly. The two of them were talking, and walked along Beimen Street for a while towards Anyuan, and when I was about to reach the narrow alley leading into the theater, my consciousness suddenly returned, a kind of shyness My doubts once again clouded my mind, so I resolutely said to Chen Jun: "I can't go to the theater today, because there are still some books that haven't been moved, so I want to go out of the city and go to the park again." After saying this, I had already arrived at the entrance of the alley, and the sound of gongs and drums could already be heard. Chen Jun held me back for a while, and advised me to go after the show ended, but I finally parted ways with him and walked out of Beijing alone. door, and walked to the park in the middle of the lotus field.

Probably because it was Saturday afternoon, there were also a few students and gentlemen walking on the wild road in the park.I turned my back on the sun and went to sit down in a tea house in the northeast corner. Looking at the clear autumn sky and the wild scenery around me, my heart was jumping up and down, as if a big event was about to happen to me. . The tea seller, because I have known each other for a long time, came over to chat a few gossips.So I went downstairs to enjoy the sun on my own, and I rethought what that little white-faced Chen Jun said just now. Speaking of my move this time, it was an inevitable fact. As for moving to the Daxin Hotel, it was also a completely accidental result.I am not overwhelmed by Xie Yueying and their sex skills; listening to their plays every day is just a way to relieve boredom, and I did not initiate the interview last night, and after the show ended , I wanted to get up and go.Thinking of these kinds of negative facts, my heart is half relieved. I also used these kinds of facts to defend the joke that Chen Jun said just now.However, although the defense has been argued, there is a kind of uneasiness in my heart.A longing to sit in the theater for an hour or two still burns in my heart and makes me restless.

I came down from the teahouse and walked towards the slanting sun in the western sky for a long time. I saw the farmers near the park stacking hay on the grass. I finally wanted to go back to Anyuan, because Xie Yueying and the others were probably still on stage at this time. Remember What was published in today's newspaper was Li Lanxiang and Xie Yueying's last "Three Niangs Teaching Children". While thinking this way, he walked into the city step by step unconsciously.When I walked along Beimen Street to the entrance of the alley, I actually stood there.However, going into the theater at this time, firstly, it is easier to attract the attention of them and the audience, and secondly, I feel that I will be laughed at by that little white-faced Chen Jun, so although I stood blankly at the entrance of the alley, I was determined to go in Finally he dared not do it, but he was secretly complaining about Chen Jun, just like people who have secrets when others reveal them.

Standing at the entrance of the alley for a while, walking for a while, and then returning to the entrance of the alley for a while, the short autumn day in the middle is late in the sky.I was afraid that Chen Jun would catch me after the show ended, and I was afraid that Xie Yueying and the others would see them when they came out, so I hurried back to the hotel. Already yellow on fire. After dinner in the hotel, I wanted to run to the back yard several times to see if they were back, but I was finally suppressed by my shy mind.I sat and smoked a few cigarettes, went to the hotel door a few times pretending to be idling, but finally saw no movement from them, so I had no choice but to go back to the old lessons, and slowly started from the evening by myself. Walk to Anyuan on the street.

After all, it was Saturday night, although it was still early, the audience was already packed in front of the stage.I asked the teahouse to do a negotiation at the place where I usually sit, and I got in. The play on the stage was only performed to the third time.After sitting down, he looked around, but Chen Jun hadn't arrived yet.Half of me like it, I like that he can stop telling jokes to make fun of me, and half of me is also disappointed, I am afraid that he will not come here tonight, so that there will be one less person applauding in front of the stage, thanks to Yueying and the others for their great interest it is good.

The play has been performed one after another, but Chen Jun did not come after all. When the last play "Forcing the Palace" was about to be staged, I felt the same as when the flood broke out. At the same time, I felt a lot of shame, love, and annoyance , Regret and other ups and downs of feelings. However, Xie Yueying and Chen Liankui finally took the stage. I blushed and stared at the cheers of others, watching their singing and acting.Xie Yueying really looked at me a few times, and I felt hot all over my body at this moment, as if all the theatergoers in the yard had seen through what happened last night and were staring at me, their ears were buzzing.The noise of gongs and drums and their singing disappeared from my consciousness. I only listened to the words Xie Yueying asked me, "Mr. Something?" Then she faintly remembered many of her words, her movements, and her voice and smile when she was wearing ordinary clothes last night.There was a sound of hood, hood, and the show was over. I was just like someone who had a feverish dream, blushing anxiously, in a mess, and desperately squeezed through the crowd as soon as I stood up. out the door of the theater. "What are they singing tonight? Where am I supposed to go? What time is it?" Totally disappeared from my consciousness, and my brain, like a demented person's, had changed It became a white crystal without any wrinkles.

After running around in the dark streets and alleys, I don't know how many miles I ran. When my mind regained a little stability and my mind was clear, I walked back, opened the door of the hotel, and went back to the room to sleep. Chickens are indeed crowing in a few places. It's strange to say that Xie Yueying and I lived under the same roof and ate from the same pot, but after I saw them on the stage that night, I didn't see them for three full days.Of course, I want to see them more passionately than anything else, but partly because I am shy, and partly because I am afraid that after seeing them, I will be as excited as when I squeezed out of the theater that night, and I am also a little terrified, so I intentionally I'm avoiding many opportunities to see them.After that night, of course I didn't go to the theater, and that little white-faced Chen Jun was also very strange. In the past three days, none of them had ever been to the Daxin Hotel once.

At two o'clock in the afternoon on the fourth day after I moved into the hotel, I finished lunch and was about to go to the office when I suddenly met Xie Yueying at the door of the hotel.She also wanted to go outside alone, but she was a little hesitant. When she saw me, she asked me to say: "Mr. Wang! Where are you going? We haven't seen each other for a few days. I heard that you have also moved here. Is that true?" Because there were many idlers standing and staring at the entrance of the hotel and in the hall, my face became hot, and I answered her vaguely and said, "Yes! Yes!" She looked at me in such a state of embarrassment, as if As if he was very sorry for me, he let go of his foot and walked out the door, while he was still talking to me, as if to teach me to follow.I followed her out of the door and onto the street, until she turned a corner at an alley far away from the hotel, and she relaxed her pace, walked side by side with me, and said to me very earnestly: "Mr. Wang! I want to go shopping on the street, but grandma is ill and can't come out with me. Do you have time, can you go with me?" My disturbed mind was cleared up here, and of course I liked her kind words very much, so when I walked out of the alley, I hailed two rickshaws and went to the street with her. It was just busy in the afternoon, and the street was crowded with pedestrians walking in the sun, so the car was going very slowly. When I was in the car, I asked her what she wanted to buy, and she told me: "It's getting cold, and I want to make a new leather jacket. I brought the leather, but I haven't bought the face yet. My grandma is ill. Li Lanxiang also has a fever. It's the same illness as my grandma, so no one comes out with me. Lian Kui also had to stay with them at home." Speaking of our car, we had arrived at the busiest Sanpailou Street in City A.I got off the car at the entrance of a silk and satin foreign goods store. When I paid for the car, she turned her head and gave me a natural smile of gratitude.I've never gone shopping with a woman before, so when I entered the store and the guys crowded around, I blushed again. She was leaning against the counter, talking to the waiter, and I blushed and hid behind her, daring not to speak.It wasn't until the satin was taken out and she asked me about the color, pattern, etc., that I shyly leaned over it and stood side by side with her. After the satin was cut, I walked out of the store. When I asked her if she had anything else to buy, she turned her face sideways, gave me a sideways glance, and said to me with a smile: "Mr. Wang! The weather is so good, where do you want to go to play? I'm really bored seeing their illnesses in my room these days." From what she said, it seemed that Li Lanxiang and grandma had been ill for two or three days, and the illness seemed to be severe influenza.It was only when I came here that I remembered the fact that Li Lanxiang hadn't appeared in the newspaper for the past few days, and I also found out the reason why I hadn't seen them in person for three days after I arrived at the Daxin Hotel. Jue actually walked to the entrance of the main street leading out of the east gate.Go straight out of the east gate and go to the city one or two miles away. There is a famous temple Yingjiang Temple standing. It is the largest temple in City A. There is also a pagoda in the temple by the river, which can be climbed up and down. It is also a scenic spot in City A.So I asked her to go out of the city together and go to this temple.
