Chapter 9 Eight

A large leather sofa with a length of two and a half meters, on which I sit and play a Rubik's Cube. This sofa is so big that I look like a curled up kitten. This is a small sun room on the first floor, not far from me is a nine-foot Steinway piano. On a fine day, the velvet curtains are half drawn, and the sun shines on my head. Looking out from the windows are all exquisite red-roofed villas. This villa area is on Yanggao South Road, not far from Shanghai GM. The housing price is not too expensive. An ordinary one can only be bought for two to three million yuan. This place was bought by the boss, and Sister Shen lives here.

"Jiang Yang, stay and have lunch with me." Sister Shen poked her head out from the handrail of the stairs on the second floor. "Okay." I didn't hesitate, Sister Shen cooks well, I've eaten there a few times. "It's almost ready-made, I cook a little rice and it will be fine. Find what you want to eat by yourself, there are books on the shelf, and the TV remote is under the coffee table. "Sister Shen said so and stepped downstairs, entered the kitchen, turned around and closed the sliding door. "Is it cold?" She poked her head out again, "How about I turn on the floor heating?" I shook my head and continued to play with my Rubik's Cube.

The dishes are really simple, just stewed green peppers and wild rice stems, and a casserole full of milky bone soup. The aroma wafts on the tip of my nose, and I feel like I have been hungry for decades. Nowadays, the rations for the residents are all convenience food, and the army still has a share of fresh meat and vegetables, but it is also very limited. The rank of the boss is Major General, a senior general. Unlike us, he has additional subsidies for non-staple food. What I brought over today was the quota of the boss. Anyway, he basically eats with us in the canteen of CITIC Pacific, and there is no place for these meat dishes to be cooked.

A lot of pepper was added to the bone soup, and it was warm. I finished it in a few sips. Sister Shen took my bowl to help me hold the soup, and pointed to the napkin on the table, telling me to wipe it. mouth. My age was seriously underestimated in front of this woman, but I still took a napkin honestly and wiped my mouth seriously. "Sister Shen, how old are you?" I thought I should remind this woman that I am not a generation behind her. "Twenty-eight, who belongs to the horse, how about you?" "Twenty-four, the year of pig." I fiddled with a piece of fleshy bone with a spoon, and bit down hard with my teeth.

"Eat slowly, I don't drink soup very much, this pot belongs to you." "Such a big pot?" "I thought he came here with you..." Sister Shen's voice dropped, as if she was careless. I licked my lips and looked up at the woman opposite. She was looking out the window, brushing a strand of hair that was hanging down, her fingers were long and neat. The first thing everyone saw when they saw Sister Shen was her hands, as if they were born for the piano. Before the war began, Sister Shen taught music in a well-known high school, occasionally wearing a black velvet dress to perform at the Shanghai Concert Hall.

It is said that at that time, the backstage always received a large bouquet of roses, which were piled up on Sister Shen's table, which was spectacular. The girls who majored in the symphony orchestra bit their ears and said that this woman is really vicious, so Sister Shen just listened to it, and came to play a few tunes viciously, and usually used her slender fingers to press the keys in high school to teach those who are born with weak hearing The child distinguishes pitch. Later, there was a man who carried the rank of major general on his shoulders and always ran to the concert hall, although he looked like a duo-player at best.

Later, Sister Shen resigned, and she didn't even go to the concert hall anymore. "Sister Shen, why did you hang out with the boss?" I regretted after asking, the woman sitting opposite me suddenly turned her head to look at me, there was a kind of surprise in her pupils, like a quiet deer being startled by a sound outside the woods up. She looked at me, her eyes were not sharp, and then she smiled, lowered her head to take off the clip, and tied the fallen hair back in. This hairstyle makes her look like a mature woman in the 1970s and 1980s, and her neck is fair and swan-like.

"Actually, I made a mistake," the woman shook her head, "I didn't think about it like this at first." She didn't continue, got up and went to the fireplace to turn on the stereo. Cheerful voices danced in the empty living room, "Super Star". I glanced at the S hanging behind the door. H. e. A large poster, three women stand in front of a pretty magical forest. "Jiang Yang, is there anyone you like?" She sat back at the table. I froze for a moment and shook my head. "You are not young anymore." "It's tiring to chase."

"Someday I'll introduce you to one? What kind do you like?" Weirdly, I wanted to laugh at this moment. I want to say that I like Lin Lan like that. Sister Shen, tell the boss to tell Lin Lan that she come to like me. But I still shook my head: "Farewell, as long as I am like this, if you don't harm others, it will be a good deed." "You're so young, what do you know about good deeds?" Sister Shen smiled, "I really know a few girls who are pretty good in appearance, family, and all." "That's out of the question. Sister Shen, if you have any crooked introductions to me, I still have hope. If this kind of looks are good at home, it's really useless." I finished the soup and put it in the bowl. Fish for radishes.

"Poor, you also graduated from Peking University." "But didn't I join the army? It costs 680 yuan a month. Apart from supporting myself, it is difficult to raise a dog." "Actually, women don't say that you can do whatever you want if you have money." "Sister Shen, aren't you a famous Shanghai woman?" "I'm from Shanghai, what's the matter?" Sister Shen raised her eyebrows and looked angry, "Do you still want to drink soup?" "Drink!" I handed up the soup bowl. Sister Shen gave me a blank look, and helped me remove the bone scum in the bowl.

"Actually, girls are best coaxed." She lowered her head. "The boss also said that the job of being in the defense headquarters is actually the easiest. Only after doing it does he know that wild boars can be exhausted to death." "Spoof, in fact, you just need to impress her." "This is equivalent to saying that we only need to blow up its mothership to fix the Delta civilization." "That's different. If you want you to blow up the mothership, you have no chance, but to impress a woman, you actually have many, many opportunities, but you men generally don't know it." "Sister Shen, do you still admit that I am a man...does the boss know?" "He didn't know, he was lucky, he met." Sister Shen paused, "He still doesn't know." "Oh." "Should I recruit? I see your eyes are moving around. Are you thinking about something in my room or something on your mind?" Sister Shen raised her head, and a bit of viciousness suddenly jumped out of those deer-like pupils. I was taken aback, thinking she must not be a vegetarian before following the boss. "No! I don't know the secret code! I can't get it out even if I am killed!" I said firmly. "That's up to you, you young people, you know for yourself." The light in Sister Shen's eyes faded, "I'm afraid it will be too late when you understand..." "Sister Shen, you are four years older than me, and you speak like a generation older than me." "If you follow the old man, you will become an old lady." Sister Shen laughed silently, serving me soup with her slender hands. I started the Audi A4 that was hung with the military flag, and stretched out my hand to bid farewell to Sister Shen through the window. The woman stood at the entrance of the villa wearing cotton slippers, "Jiang Yang, it's already three o'clock, if you're not in a hurry, you can have dinner here too." "I'm going to Puxi, and I have something to do." I said. I still have things to do, I still have a box of quick-frozen pork chops and dried vegetables in the back compartment, and I want to take them to the woman in the old family's house. I don't know what the boss is thinking, if it were me, I think I would send two younger brothers to run, so that they don't know each other. But in fact, sister Shen doesn't know, neither does the boss's wife, only me and the boss know. I don't feel comfortable just saying the same thing to two women like I'm cheating on them. But what does it matter to me?I just run an errand for the boss. I'm really the emperor not in a hurry for the eunuch's life. Maybe one day when I am old, I will get up in the morning and put on my wife’s ironed shirt, eat the breakfast she cooked, and kiss her goodbye. At night, I will see a woman in a black velvet dress in a candlelit restaurant. I said sorry to the woman, I have a lot of things to do today, I have to leave early, in fact, I want to accompany my wife to watch Super Girl. The woman nodded and said it was all right, I will go home by myself in a while. No one will tell you, just like a dice jar that only needs to be shaken with the lid closed, you hear the sound of the dice colliding and spinning, but if you have to open the lid to take a look, the game is over. The victory and defeat have been divided, and there can be no more. I turned the steering wheel and turned out of the community, a little curious about how the boss moved Sister Shen. I believe what Sister Shen said. With the boss's EQ, if he deliberately impressed Sister Shen, then the rabbit in the waiting rabbit must have aimed and killed himself. And he really had the good fortune to impress a woman who played Chopin in a concert hall in a black velvet dress at night and patiently repeated do-re-mi to helpless children by day?This woman's past is as gorgeous as an angel. Then the angel fell. There was a moment when the boss touched Sister Shen, and on a certain day of a certain year...my thoughts wandered. "When you understand, it will be too late..." I slammed on the brakes, and the Audi A4 slid out for more than ten meters with two streams of green smoke and harsh braking sounds, and stopped in the middle of the traffic light intersection, crossing the two roads diagonally. The driveway is like a black tiger blocking the way. Fortunately, there is only my lonely car on the road at this time, and no traffic police will come to question me. I put my elbows on the steering wheel and feel like I need to take a few gulps of breath. Just now, something seemed to explode in my heart with a "bang", and tremors flowed down the bones of my limbs. I can't stand that woman anymore, she's really the reincarnation of a vixen. Those deer-like gentle glasses suddenly became overwhelmingly bright, and she always felt that something had been seen through by her. And what she said...is it true?I opened the car window, stared at the distant skyline for a while, took out my phone and wrote a text message: "Dinner tonight?" The text message flew out, I turned off the car, got out of the car door and leaned against the water tank cover , Looking around with his hands in his arms. Occasionally, a slow bus came by, and people carrying food rations lined up as if they had received strict military training. They looked curiously at the military vehicle in the middle of the road and the reserve lieutenant leaning against it. I ignored them and took out a roll of Holly's mints from my pocket. Just as the third mint was about to disappear in my mouth, my phone rang. "Okay, let's go to New Zhenjiang." So the little beast in my heart danced happily, climbed up the tree and went down the hole, revealing its little tail.
