Chapter 62 Peacock Forest (62)

I haven't planned to tell Li Shanlan yet, and I don't even think it doesn't matter if I don't tell her. She didn't seem to notice my change, and our way of getting along remained the same. On the night when I started to pack my luggage, there were two more thuds on the floor, and I put down my things and went downstairs. "what are these? After entering her room, I pointed to a pile of things on the ground and asked. "Some handmade products." She replied, "Taipei is very popular now." "Oh. 』 I squatted down, picked out one or two items, and put them in my palms to examine them carefully.

"What do you think?" She sat down cross-legged, "I asked some people for their opinions, and some people said it looks good, But some people say it's ugly. " "My opinion is the sum of these two opinions. 』 "What's the meaning?" "pretty ugly. 』 "Hey." I stood up, smiled and said, "Plan to sell these in Taipei? 』 "Yeah." She nodded. "Then I wish you a prosperous business. 』 She looked up at me, seeming to find my tone of voice unbelievable. I didn't say much, and went upstairs after playing with the puppy for a while.

I squatted down and knelt on my left foot, just as I packed a large pile of books into boxes to seal them with tape, She suddenly appeared at the door of the room and said, "I forgot to tell you, I found a new job..." But she stopped mid-sentence. I also stopped moving and looked at her quietly. "What are u doing?" After a while, she finally asked. "I'm going to America. 』 As he spoke, he tore off the tape, making a cracking sound. We were shocked by the piercing sound at the same time, so like two people whose acupuncture points had been tapped, Although they stared at each other, they couldn't move.

I can almost hear the ticking of the clock on the wall and the beating of my own heart. After a long time, she first untied the acupoints, exhaled, and said: "Do you like America?" "dislike. 』 "Then why go to America?" "Because it will help my future. 』 The tape went all the way along the joint of the carton, and the carton finally closed its mouth. "When you arrive in the United States, remember to say hello to Clinton for me." "The President of the United States is no longer Bill Clinton, but Bush now. 』 "Why is it the same name as the Bush who fought in the Persian Gulf War?"

"He is the son of the previous Bush. Bush is the last name, not the first name. 』 "Is the United States a business run by their family? Why are both father and son presidents?" "I have no idea.But now Bush is also fighting the Persian Gulf War. 』 "Father and son are equally shameless." "right. 』 She went into the room, looked about idly, and said casually: "If such a shameless person becomes the president, why do you still go to the United States?" I couldn't answer, so I had to smile wryly. She walked half a circle in the room, finally stopped, and turned her back to me.

A half-person-high cardboard box stood between us like a barrier. "How long have we known each other?" She didn't look back. "More than two years. 』After thinking for a while, I replied. "What do you think of me?" "No matter what people think of you, I think you are very good. 』 "Impossible." She shook her head, "You must think I'm bad, or you wouldn't even go to The United States does not want to tell me about such a major event. " "not like this.I'm just..." I stammered, "It's just..." "Just what?" She still didn't look back.

"never mind. ’ I said, ‘It’s nothing. 』 "Are you going to tell me or not?" "I don't know if I should say it or how to say it. 』 "Don't mother-in-law, don't forget, you are the one who chooses the peacock." Hearing the term peacock, my heart felt like a needle was pricked. "Yes, I am the one who chooses the peacock. 』After staring at her back for a long time, I finally spoke: "So even though I like you, I still want to go to America. 』 I thought it should be in a secluded place in the forest, when the sun shines on my body from among the dense leaves,

I will suddenly open the screen, and she will be amazed at my gorgeous body; I didn't expect to say that I like her on such an occasion and in such an atmosphere. She slowly turned towards me, with no emotion on her face, and said lightly: "Before you go to America, I want to say something to encourage you." I nodded and pricked up my ears. "You are a useless man!" I was so startled that my heart almost jumped out of my mouth. "People will work hard, often because they are discriminated against, insulted or bullied." She smiled slightly, "The most famous example in history is the humiliation of Han Xin, as well as Wu Zixu and Zhang Yi."

"so what? 』 "So now I want to use Han Xin's encouragement method to motivate you to work hard." "Can I not use Han Xin?For example, Wang Baochuan would encourage Xue Pinggui by guarding the cold kiln. 』 "No. I must use Han Xin." She said, "Listen carefully." "You only know how to study, but you don't know anything, and you will end up with nothing." "You are hypocritical, selfish, completely disregarding other people's feelings, only thinking of yourself." "You are priceless. In other words, worthless."

"You don't know how to understand, don't know how to give, you only know what you need, so your girlfriend doesn't want you." "Don't think you long for love, in fact, you don't need love at all, you just want to have everything Satisfy vanity.Possession will make you happy, but love will not! " "You are lazy and lazy, you don't want to be aggressive, just like the four great inventions of China, you use The navigator uses it for fortune-telling, and you who can make rockets, but you only know how to set off fireworks. " "Do you think you can make a fortune by going to the United States? No, you will definitely be down on the street, sticking out the yellow

palms, begging for white mercy. " Although I don't know the real intention of her saying these words, maybe she used the topic to make use of it, maybe she pointed fingers at her, Maybe I really want to learn from Han Xin, but I don't care at all. I just lowered my head slightly, letting these words get into my ears like mosquitoes, but my heart is like a tank, will not be affected in the slightest. "You're just..." She was slightly agitated, her breathing was a little short, and after she calmed down her chest, she said loudly: "You're just a vain peacock!" There was finally a blow to the chest and I felt hurt and looked up at her. Her face was flushed, and she stood there for a while, then ran downstairs immediately after waking up. The moment she turned around, I seemed to see her sister coming. Shanlan and Leixia finally got together and formed Tears of Tears. Standing up slowly, his feet were sore and numb from half-kneeling for too long, and he sat down on the cardboard box after rubbing a little. I wanted to say something to myself, but it was difficult to even open my mouth. I felt like I was sealed like a cardboard box, and even my heart was sealed. Then I heard a thud on the floor. A few seconds later, there was another boom. I tried my best to calm down, and when my emotions stabilized, I stood up and planned to go downstairs to find her. Suddenly there was another thud. A total of three times before and after, my heart beat faster, my whole body was tense, and my legs softened and I sat down again. The song she said when she first came here came to mind: "Knock Three Times". Three taps means she likes him. I seem to go back to that time and hear her singing. Oh my darling knock three times on the ceiling if you want me…… The singing is running in my mind, and wherever it goes, it also brings back the memories of getting along with each other in the past two years. After the singing stopped, I began to face the multiple-choice questions of the United States and Li Shanlan. Unlike Xiaoyun, I only feel pain and anxiety when faced with this multiple-choice question. The reason for the pain is that I know very well in my heart that I will choose the United States after all. Damn, why am I the one who chooses the peacock? How good would it be if I chose sheep? I suddenly had an urge to tear off the tape on the carton as if to vent my anger. The carton made a sharp moan, and some of the skin around the carton's mouth was ripped off. I tried my best to kick the cardboard box blocking my way, but the cardboard box was too heavy, and the sole of my foot was injured instead. Ignoring the pain, I limped and ran downstairs. Only half way up the stairs, she saw that she had opened the iron gate of the yard. She looked back at me, the light was too dim, I couldn't see the look on her face clearly. Then she turned her head back, rushed out, and closed the iron gate. There was a violent metal banging sound from the iron door, and the lingering sound lingered for a long time. I only saw the blue back disappearing into the night.
