Chapter 74
Chapter 74
On New Year's Day, after making a New Year call, He Jingyang and Guan Wei made an appointment to see him off at the beginning of school, and called Li Jie by the way, agreeing to meet Huang Jin and Zhu Baoping.
Guan Wei left on the thirteenth day of the first month, and made an appointment with He Jingyang to meet him in Yunzhou on the twelfth day of the first month.But when Huang Jin started school late, Teacher Chen temporarily decided to go to Xi'an with his family to watch the Lantern Festival. Zhu Baoping also left early, so the agreed party had to be postponed.
He Jingyang was thinking about seeing Guan Wei, so he went back to Qingcheng early, but suddenly there was no party, and he couldn't go to Yunzhou one day in advance, because he was very worried that he would be alone with Guan Wei, and he couldn't help but want to unwrap the present Package.
The point is that he hasn't learned how to dismantle it yet. If Guan Wei sees the joke, he won't be able to lift his head up for the rest of his life. It's really sad.
Before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the streets of Qingcheng were depressed, and the little red of the lanterns and couplets seemed more and more lonely.He Jingyang called Li Jie to make an appointment for lunch, and went straight to the training class.
After going up the stairs without entering the door, I heard someone inside yelling "Ouch, Ouch". It was Zhang Fei's voice.
"Take it easy! Did I come back with so much effort to let you kill me?" Zhang Fei yelled and chattered dissatisfiedly.
He Jingyang opened the cotton curtain and was startled: It was a very cold day, although the room was heated but it was not very warm, Zhang Fei was lying on the chair with half of his back exposed, and Li Jie was bending over to give him medicine.
"Are you... robbed?" He Jingyang gasped as he looked at the criss-crossed bloodstains on Zhang Fei's back.
"Being beaten, not robbed." Zhang Fei replied lazily.
"Who... your family?" He Jingyang raised his eyebrows in shock, and moved closer to take a closer look.
"Hey, men and women can't kiss each other, don't get so close!" Zhang Fei pushed his head away.
"Then Li Jie is still playing!" He Jingyang was dissatisfied.
"He's my brother-in-law, can it be the same?" Zhang Fei's voice just finished, probably Li Jie's hand squeezed him, and he yelled in pain, "Li Yu, take care of your brother, I'm going to die It's in his hands...".
Zhang Yishu's visit to relatives can be described as hard to describe.
Because he announced the news that he was going back in advance, he was taken home directly from the station by his parents.The original plan to use grandparents as a shield to buffer it was aborted, and he was dragged by his mother to go on a blind date.
During the Spring Festival holiday, the school-age men and women who went out returned home one after another. After Zhang Yishu accompanied his mother to the blind date for a few days, he finally couldn't take it anymore and had a formal showdown with his family again.
Zhang Yishu's family style is not as vigorous as Li Yu's family, and his parents are reluctant to fight. The most important sentence is "If you have the ability to die outside, don't come back."
Zhang Yishu has no skills, he hopes that he can come back after leaving.
"You still want to leave? Where can you not be a teacher if you want to be a teacher!" My father was very dissatisfied.
"I still do some business over there, and it's just started to improve." Zhang Fei thought about the ideals he had talked about with Li Yu, and thought about the words pressed under the glass plate, and he really couldn't bear it.
"If you don't want the ready-made business at home, just hold a golden rice bowl and beg for it!" My father was furious and ignored him.
Seeing that the return date was approaching, the courtyard door was wide open, but he couldn't get out.Because the door of the parents' room was closed, no one came out.
"Can I come back during the summer vacation?" Zhang Yishu asked his parents over and over again through the door.At the end of the question, I was desperate, thinking that it was impossible, I could only go back and burn Li Yu's remains, bring back the ashes, or make a comeback in my hometown.
"Then can I go one more time and come back with him, and I won't leave when I get back. Give me a few days." Zhang Yishu took a step back.
"You can leave whenever you want, and come back when you want. When did you ask our opinion?" Father finally opened the door and asked sharply: "You bring him back, is he willing? Will his parents be willing? Can we let him in?" ?”
"He's dead, and only one younger brother is still in school. His parents haven't forgiven him yet, so no one will take care of me when I leave the grave. I'll find someone to burn the grave and bring back the ashes." Zhang Yishu raised his face and looked at him. Looking at his father on the steps, he said softly, "If you don't let me in, I'll take him to find a place nearby."
Father was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
When the mother heard the words, she rushed out and asked, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"
Zhang Yishu didn't want to mention Li Yu's matter at first, and always felt that he was using Li Yu to play the bitter card.But the matter has come to this point, it is impossible not to say it, so I say it from beginning to end.
After all, the mother is a woman with a soft heart, and when she heard that something happened to Li Yu, she cried out of breath, hugged her son and said, "Poor, what a crime."
But the father sighed straight after hearing it, and the sound was louder.
The ancestors of the Zhang family have been teachers and models for several generations, and it was not until his father's generation that he started business. However, the few bamboo whips used in the family's private school have been hung on the wall and passed down.
When Zhang Yishu was naughty when he was a child, he was often threatened by his father with a pointer, but his body and mind were alive, and he often ran away before the whip fell on him, and he had never been beaten.
"So the child is gone because of you?" The father took a whip at some point and stood beside Zhang Yishu.
"Yes." As soon as Zhang Yishu finished speaking, he slapped his father hard in the hollow of his leg and fell to his knees.Surprised, he turned his head, just in time to see the bamboo whip coming towards the wind, and it hit his back with a "slap".
He didn't dodge this time, but he didn't want to dodge at first, but when his father raised his hand again, he said, "Wait a minute."
Li Yu was beaten in summer, and his clothes were thin, so he must have suffered even more.
Zhang Yishu knelt on the cold bluestone floor, took off his shirts one by one, bared his back, and said "Okay" to his father.
Li Yu was hit twelve times, and Li Jie told him, "I counted the first and the second, thinking that he should say it when he was hit the third time, and he should say it after the fifth time. Twelve."
"Twelve strokes, what do you mean?" Zhang Yishu asked with a trembling voice.
"No. 12 broke the stick, so my dad poked him in the back with the stubble." Li Jie thought, the shocking hatred for Zhang Yishu in his heart was probably the seed that had been planted since then.
"He's been hit twelve times, and I can't let him underestimate it." Zhang Yishu straightened his back and signaled his father to do it.
Zhang Yishu counted with a loud voice, and his father's men didn't show mercy, but he couldn't bear the whips falling on his back gradually.
"Dad, their stick is broken." Zhang Yishu was so painful that tears rolled down his face at the seventh hit, but he still hadn't lost his ability to talk poorly.
As soon as the words were finished, my father whipped up with more force, and with a "click", the whip broke.
"Stop beating, don't beating! This is because the ancestors love the child! If you beat me again, you will be punished by God!" The mother who had been standing by the side and wiped her tears rushed up to pick up the clothes and put them on her son, "Go back to the house, go back Mama will give you medicine!"
That's hard to say, maybe Li Yu loves me.Zhang Yishu had welts on his back, knelt for a long time and couldn't stand still, a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, "Dad, there are still several on the wall."
"Hmph." His father strode back to the house holding the bamboo whip that was broken in two. Although he still looked angry, the hum from his nasal cavity was more pleasant than any other sound to Zhang Yishu.
"Then you came back to take Li Yu away?" He Jingyang asked Zhang Fei after listening to the story, sighing for a long time.
"My career is booming soon." Zhang Fei glanced at Li Jie, "Li Yu told me that his brother assigned me a good job a few years ago, and he wouldn't let me go if he couldn't finish it."
Li Jie's eyes turned red, and he turned his head away from the two of them.
"What about the family?"
"I brought two bottles of pickled vegetables, southern taste, take a bottle and taste it when you leave." Zhang Fei ignored it and chatted, "My mother said that I will send fresh ones in two months. "
"Oh~~~Understood." While being happy for Zhang Fei, He Jingyang thought about it and said, "Don't let Guan Wei see you like this!"
"Why? Could it be that you are still jealous if he loves me?" Zhang Fei got dressed with Li Jie's help, and lay down on the sofa to relax.
"Afraid to scare him." He Jingyang touched his chest, "This method is too scary. If we all have to take this step, I have to practice martial arts again."
"Have you ever learned martial arts?" Li Jie was surprised.
"No, I have fought before, so I have to seek professional advice, mainly to learn how to fight. Does that mean I have to practice the iron shirt with the golden bell cover?"
"Then you can't practice, you can't be like that?" Zhang Fei started to become poor as soon as the pain stopped.
"Wh-what?" He Jingyang was confused, and Li Jie snorted when he heard the words, turned and walked out with the bloody gauze he had replaced.
"Hey, why are you ashamed to be an innocent?" Zhang Fei didn't stop shouting at Li Jie, and turned to look at He Jingyang with a smile: "Just you and your little Guan Wei, who didn't do anything?"
"I... oh~~~ Hey!" After He Jingyang popped out a few onomatopoeias, he felt quite embarrassed, and struggled to add a sentence: "I didn't say that I have to practice!"
"Well, you didn't say it, I was just thinking about it." Zhang Fei adjusted his lying position, changed the face of a life mentor, and said earnestly: "You are wrong about one thing. Our family's law is not because I found it. The first object was a man, but because someone had an accident because of me. Regardless of men or women, this beating is inevitable."
"Oh!" He Jingyang nodded half-understanding.
"Oh shit. Parents want their children to be well. If you two want to get along for a long time, you should think about this truth for each other. It is right not to let your own parents worry about it, but more importantly, don't let the other's parents worry about it. Worry. Let people know that the child can live comfortably and decently with you..."
"En, um, um." He Jingyang responded repeatedly, nodding his head so that he could peck at the chicken.
Chick sat quietly for a while after pecking the rice, and suddenly felt that he was wronged. He obviously did nothing, so why can't he practice the iron cloth shirt covered with gold bells?No, in order to prove this crime, I have to do something.
Not long after the start of school, Guan Wei received the first letter from He Jingyang, and he was very happy.After receiving the letter from a classmate, I almost trotted to find a public teacher with no one there, sat down, opened it carefully, and wished I could take it apart and read it stroke by stroke:
"Guan Xiaowei:
I've made phone calls, visited home, and got along very well.Zhang Fei came back, and after being beaten, he was still very nervous (crossed out).Old Xu added a son, who just had a full moon last week. I bought a gift for you and sent it over.Li Jie bought a mobile phone, I asked your father to find someone to help buy it, it's cheap.I found a part-time job as an Internet cafe administrator, taking care of software and hardware, and sometimes teaching newcomers how to play games (don’t worry, I won’t be addicted).A few of my seniors have graduated and started a computer company together. I will accumulate experience first, and then I will be qualified to learn more profitable skills from them.It may be very busy when I come back from summer vacation, but I spend most of my time in Yunzhou. "
There is only the signature and date, no hello, yours, or salute. He Jingyang's letter is written very casually, comparable to a life briefing.Although the content is very rich, but the details are lacking, Guan Wei is not particularly satisfied, and plans to write back to teach him: Is my dad so happy to see you that he is willing to help you with errands?What gift did you buy for the old Xu's son?What's Li Jie's phone number? ...
When he finished reading the letter and folded it and put it in the envelope, he unexpectedly found that there were words on the back of the letter paper, the handwriting was very scribbled, as if he was going to post the letter soon, and he thought of adding a few words temporarily:
"I don't need your science and education film. Zhang Fei bought a VCD. He said the video tape is too outdated and he will find a better one for me. Ha! Ha! Ha!"
One hundred thousand exclamation marks floated across the entire screen in Guan Wei's mind, fifty thousand were for Zhang Fei, and fifty thousand were for He Jingyang.
A week later, He Jingyang received the first letter from Guan Wei in his life, with black lines all over his face.He didn't understand that he had written such a long letter with all his heart, all about the things Guan Wei cared about, and the readability was quite high. Why did Guan Wei only return one page of manuscript paper, although it was full, but There is only one exclamation point in each small square.
It was nothing more than an exclamation mark, and there was a sentence on the back of the letter paper, "Forward to Teacher Zhang Fei", so he took advantage of the weekend to return to Qingcheng to present to Teacher Zhang Fei in person.
After reading it, Teacher Zhang Fei asked him about the content of the letter he sent before. After a moment of pondering, he came to two conclusions: 1. Guan Wei expressed his admiration for his active learning behavior using VCD, but it is inconvenient to write it out, so give 2. I was moved by Mr. Zhang's selfless sponsorship, so I asked to forward it.
He Jingyang heard this, and felt that Guan Wei had a bad habit of not saying things well, and it was a waste of paper and ink. Wouldn't it be better to write an exclamation point, add a superscript to the power of n, or follow it with an "infinite loop" ?
After hearing He Jingyang's idea, Zhang Fei praised them greatly, and once again praised them, "It's good to be young, and they don't dislike each other when they are stupid."
The remnants of the last spring snow were about to fade away. Guan Wei received the second letter from He Jingyang. There was only one sentence:
"Guan Xiaowei: I'm starting to study, come back from summer vacation and open birthday presents together."
Concise and concise, cold and dignified.
Guan Wei pondered for a long time and suddenly understood the charm behind this aloof and dignified, even if there was no one around, he was still blushing with embarrassment.
It's just that the next time I go back to Yunzhou, whether it should be on the day I planned for the spring and Jingming's sunshine, or the summer vacation that He Jingyang said will be a few months later, I really have some trouble thinking about it. (full text)
