hypocritically

Chapter 96

Guo Xiao didn't know how he got back to school, he was the only one in the dormitory, he sat blankly at the desk for a while, his mind went blank.

He used to work hard to get into college, worked hard to work part-time, and tried every means to stay in province A. Those past and future goals that he had struggled for turned into sand in an instant. He couldn't figure out what he had been doing for these past few years.

In the next few days, Guo Xiao went to and from get out of class as usual, but he was obviously not in the mood. Saturday was the day he went to Mingda to report, but he actually forgot about it until an unfamiliar number without a note called him.

"Hello? Guo Xiao, do you understand the rules? Why don't you report according to the stipulated time?"

Guo Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and held up his phone to look a few more times. The fiery voice was Tang Ruishan, "Uncle Tang?"

"Don't get close to me! I'll give you an hour, if you can't reach Mingda, you won't use it in the future."

The phone was hung up mercilessly, Guo Xiaoyi didn't have time to ask any questions, he jumped off the bed, washed up, and took a taxi to Mingda.

The first time he came to Mingda, Guo Xiao was almost overtime because he couldn't find the department, so he appeared in front of Tang Ruishan with a red face.

Tang Ruishan checked the time, "Just this time, the internship will also follow the factory's commute time."

"Uncle Tang..." Even though he knew that Tang Ruishan worked in Mingda, Guo Xiao was still surprised. In a brand new environment, he was like a fly without a head. He would adapt faster if he had a familiar person with him.

Tang Ruishan interrupted impatiently, "Call Master, listen well, you follow me from now on, I don't care whether you record or take notes, I will only tell you the precautions in the workshop, please Be smart and ask Xiao Chen about other things."

Tang Ruishan didn't think that it was Guo Xiao's first day here, and he led him to talk about it in the workshop. The things that the apprentices had to do were extremely complicated and meticulous. He came in a hurry, and he didn't even have a pen and paper ready. It was all recorded.

"It's almost there." Tang Ruishan glanced at his watch, he said so dryly that it was time for dinner, and seeing Guo Xiao's stupid look, he probably didn't even eat when he came , "You haven't eaten yet, come with me."

Tang Ruishan led Guo Xiao to order two meals in the cafeteria, and the two found a corner to sit down.

Long time no see, Guo Xiao has changed quite a lot, he has become more silent than before, at that time Guo Xiao was a little silly, but he laughed when he talked and did everything, and he lost a lot of weight. Knowing Guo Xiao, Guo Xiao is definitely not the kind of person who can be late on the first day of work.

"Tell me, why are you late today?"

Guo Xiao confessed: "I forgot..."

"Hey, you can forget about this, how many units did you vote for?" After seeing Guo Xiao's resume, Tang Ruishan also got to know his colleagues, but there were two people who got involved because of his entering Mingda. I can't tell, this kid is quite unusual.

Jokes are just jokes, Guo Xiao has a lot of preoccupations, and it seems that something has happened to him.

"What happened?"

It's not easy to talk to others about the matter between himself and Xu Keqin, Guo Xiao shook his head.

Tang Ruishan remembered that Guo Xiao had a close friend, "Isn't it because of your friend again? What did you do to make him angry?"

He just said it casually, unexpectedly, Guo Xiao's expression changed, he really guessed it, but Guo Xiao obviously didn't want to say it, so he had to give up.

During the semester of Mingda's internship, Guo Xiao has no salary, only food allowance and bus fare, and the factory is far away from the school, so he has to come on Friday. Tang Ruishan lent him the dormitory, so he can have a place to sleep on weekends. place.

There are so many things to learn as an apprentice, and all they do are trivial and meticulous things. Guo Xiao is very tired every day, and sometimes he doesn’t even have time to change his work clothes. , Although such a day is tiring, he is very fortunate that he has no time to do other things. He doesn't know about Xu Keqin's news, and he doesn't think about him.

Not long ago, Guo Xiao learned that his aunt was pregnant. My aunt was very happy, and he was also happy for her. He has never had time to go back. It is the last summer vacation of the university, and he wants to go back.

Guo Xiao asked Tang Ruishan for leave. When he went back to school to pack his luggage, he found out the bank card that Xu Keqin had stuffed into him before he left. He never asked about how much money Xu Keqin had deposited in it. He didn't care before, but now he doesn't Not wanting to know, he put the card in his bag, dragged the suitcase and boarded the high-speed train back to his hometown.

After more than ten hours of high-speed rail, the moment he left the high-speed rail station, the scenery in front of him was a bit strange. This city, which carried the first half of his life, had changed too much in the past few years.

Looking at the bus on the new route, Guo Xiao was a little confused, and was finally called by a taxi on the side of the road.

"Where are you going?" the driver asked.

Not long after I went to province A, the dormitory building of the chemical factory was demolished. Guo Xiao told the driver the new address of his aunt's house.

Looking at the scenery outside the window, the rapidly reversing scene flashed before Guo Xiao's eyes. In fact, as early as Xu Keqin left the Tongzilou, their common memories were erased unconsciously. Neighbors, now even the whole building has been demolished.

He originally thought that returning here would make him feel at home, but it was more of a different thing than a person.

The taxi stopped at the entrance of the community, and my aunt called, "Have you arrived yet?"

"Just arrived, I will come right away." Guo Xiao paid the money and ran towards the community without stopping.

As the elevator went up, Guo Xiao became a little excited. After the elevator door opened, my aunt had already opened the door and was waiting for him.

Seeing his aunt's big belly, Guo Xiao felt a surge of sadness, "Auntie."

Cheng Manwan rubbed Guo Xiao's head with some difficulty, "Why do you feel that you have grown taller and thinner again, did you not eat properly over there?"

To prove it, Cheng Manwan squeezed Guo Xiao's arm, it was still firm.

The nephew was raising half a son, and Cheng Manwan was pregnant, so he became more and more sentimental, and when he got emotional, his eyes became moist.

She wiped her face, "Let's go in and say, don't stand at the door."

There was only my little aunt in the house, and I didn't see my little uncle, so Guo Xiao asked, "Where's my little uncle?"

"He still has to go to work, he has to come back soon, come back at noon and cook for me."

As soon as the words fell, the sound of keys came from outside the door. The sound insulation effect of the new community is still very average, and Qi Fei's voice can be heard through the door panel, "Honey, there is a little traffic jam on the road today."

When he opened the door and saw Guo Xiao, Qi Fei said sternly, "I'm back, I'll tell you, you're such an old man, how can you not know? What are you going to pick up?"

"Little uncle." After not seeing him for a few years, Guo Xiao felt that his little uncle was not as scary as before.

Before Qi Fei entered the kitchen, Cheng Manwan said, "Don't cook today, I ordered food from the restaurant."

"How can I do that! The food outside is unhygienic, and if it's broken, ask someone to justify it." Thinking of Guo Xiao's hard work coming back, and his own craftsmanship, Qi Fei said, "The food in the restaurant makes Guo Xiao Eat, I'll make it for you."

Guo Xiao was a little curious, how did a person who couldn't even wash dishes cook for his aunt.

I saw the little uncle put a chair for the little aunt at the door of the kitchen, and the little aunt sat on the chair and directed the little uncle to cook.

The atmosphere at home will never be bad. Everyone eats together and chats about Guo Xiao's school and internship.

Qi Fei had given up drinking, but today he made an exception and opened a bottle of beer. After drinking a few sips, he said to Guo Xiao, "Okay, Guo Xiao, let's not say that he passed the college entrance examination. Now he has found a job and is promising."

The little uncle seldom praises himself, the first time is because he was admitted to university, this is the second time.

Probably because he hadn't drank alcohol for too long, my uncle was a little drunk before finishing a bottle, and fell asleep not long after lying on the sofa.

Seeing that Guo Xiao wanted to help Qi Fei into the room to sleep, Cheng Manwan quickly stopped her and said, "Leave him alone."

She wanted to talk to Guo Xiao. She felt that Guo Xiao had changed a lot when he came back this time. The nephew who used to look silly and was always worried that he would be bullied had become mature, silent, and worried about him. too much.

"Don't blame your little uncle for what happened before."

Guo Xiao doesn't hold grudges, as long as his little uncle treats his little aunt well, he has nothing to blame. "My little aunt, I'll be happy when you're happy. I never blamed anyone."

"You don't look happy when you say that." Cheng Manwan knows her nephew well, and Guo Xiao doesn't care about Qi Fei's past, "I called you earlier, I can hear you I'm not in a good mood, are you talking about your girlfriend?"

It's time for young people to worry about their feelings.

Guo Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then the light in his eyes dimmed. He and Xu Keqin seemed to have talked, but they didn't seem to have talked. When they were together, it was logical, and when they separated, they didn't need a reason.

Cheng Manwan didn't force it, thinking that Guo Xiao had to retake the college entrance examination because of Xu Keqin in the first place, so she changed the topic calmly, "Ji Huixiu came to look for it once before, saying that she asked you to find Xu Keqin, remember to tell me She said it."

I don't know when it started, I seldom contacted Xu Keqin's mother, "How is Aunt Ji recently?"

"She is a woman, do you have any other skills, and then found a man, that man is quite reliable, has a serious job, thought that Ji Huixiu would be settled for the rest of her life, but the man had a car accident and his legs I broke one." The aunt frowned and sighed, "Fate plays tricks on people, Ji Huixiu is kind and righteous, even if she didn't get a certificate, she still follows that man and even found a job in a supermarket."

Guo Xiao was silent for a while and didn't speak. For Aunt Ji, he felt very guilty. He knew that he could only give way. For Xu Keqin, he didn't abide by the agreement with Aunt Ji. He lied.
