The accommodation was not very smooth, and once it was proposed, it was opposed by all kinds of people. Various people refer to Sheng Mingyang, Jiang Ou, and the nanny, Auntie Sun.
Sheng Mingyang made three video calls in succession. Sheng Wang picked up one and hung up the other two, so his father's mind was still buzzing.
It's already 1:00 in the morning, and "Health Encyclopedia" has become unhealthy at all, tirelessly bouncing new news.
Sheng Wang plugged in his earphones and quickly clicked the dozen or so voices. After all, he was his own father and son, and he knew what the other party would say just by listening to the beginning—
"There must be something that makes my son unhappy, otherwise how can I get a good accommodation?"
"Wangzai, talk to Dad?"
"Don't be bored, you can say something directly. People your age always think that parents are old-fashioned and rigid. In fact, it's not all like that."
"Is it your father's problem or your Aunt Jiang?"
…
Sheng Mingyang is a very educated person, Sheng Wang has never seen him get angry with anyone when he grows up so much. But at the same time he is a very strong person, but this kind of strength is wrapped in gentle words, and it is difficult for ordinary people to perceive.
People who deal with Sheng Mingyang often follow his planned route unknowingly. He can always persuade you, but you have a hard time changing his mind.
Just like now, he stubbornly believes that his son chose the accommodation because he is unhappy, and he has demonstrated this point of view from various aspects. Even though Sheng Wang has said "I'm not angry" many times.
It was useless at all, as if he didn't admit it according to his words, this nagging would never end.
The last voice was 60 seconds long, and Sheng Wang only listened to it for five seconds before pinching it off.
He took off his earphones and threw them on the table, feeling anxious for a while. He hung his head up on the chair for a while, but finally couldn't hold back.
He pressed the voice button and said, "I didn't say it because I was angry, I wasn't angry. Could you listen to what I said once?"
Sheng Mingyang quickly replied: "Listen. You have to tell Dad what you want to know. Dad is afraid that you will be unhappy."
Sheng Wang's irritability couldn't be suppressed any more, but he was actually a bit like Sheng Mingyang in his bones.
Even at this moment, his tone was heavier and faster.
"I'm petty and bad-tempered, and I've been really angry many times. When did I not tell you before? When did I get results? I said I don't need any new family members, it's good to be by myself, you are busy with you What happened to you, tell me in advance when you will come back, I can wait. Did you listen? You found Aunt Jiang. "
"Later I said I figured it out. My mother is gone. In the next few decades, I will fall in love and get married as an adult. You can't be alone forever. You can find new ones, and I will accept them. Don't let her replace my mother, anything is fine. The result? You let her live in the place where I lived when I was a child, in the room where my mother stayed, in the kitchen my mother used, and cook the dishes she likes to cook."
"You did it on purpose."
"You deliberately find someone who looks like my mother, you know I can't take her. As long as she is good-natured and good-natured, I can't get angry at her. You are good, you are good, I will accept her sooner or later. "
"Okay, I accept it now."
Sheng Wang was still leaning back on the back of his chair, his phone against his lips, and his dark eyes looked at the lamp above his head.
In order to stay awake while reading, he specially asked his aunt to replace the lamp with cold light. I don't usually think that, but now I stare at it for a long time and realize how dazzling the white light is.
The stab made people's eyes swell, and inexplicably turned red.
He said: "When I drank, she made me honey water. When I was sick, she looked for medicine everywhere for me. She learned to cook for me what I hadn't eaten for a long time. No one can replace my mother, but I can accept it. There are two more people in the family."
"I told you that I don't bother Aunt Jiang. I can treat her as my family. I have a very good relationship with Jiang Tian. I don't get angry with anyone, and no one bothers me. I just want to stay. ."
"Can you, listen carefully to what I have to say."
He released his fingers, sent the last voice, and threw the phone back to his head. It crossed an arc, fell silently on the bed, sank deep into the quilt, and couldn't hear how it vibrated after that.
Sheng Wang stared at the lamp for a while, then closed his eyes and mumbled "Grass".
Between him and Sheng Mingyang, there has always been only one other person talking at length.
Seems a little hypocritical.
Said these words to Sheng Mingyang, he was actually a little uncomfortable, but it was undeniable that there was a trace of joy in the discomfort. It was like being stuffy in some cramped bag for a long time, and finally tore a seam open.
Jiang Ou's objection was different from Sheng Mingyang's. She brought too much guilt to Jiang Tian, and even her objections were silent and cowardly.
Jiang Tian woke up in the middle of the night and felt a little thirsty, so he poured some water to drink. He went downstairs with a glass and found the living room light. Jiang Ou sat alone on the sofa, the floor lamp wrapped a dim yellow circle around her. The TV was on, an old movie was playing, and the actors were joking in the scene, but the living room was silent.
Jiang Tian stopped at the entrance of the stairs.
He watched from a distance for a while, then walked over with an empty glass.
Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Ou turned his head blankly, stunned for a few seconds before saying, "Why did you get up?"
"Well." Jiang Tian responded, glanced at the TV and asked her, "Why are you sitting here?"
"Can't sleep, watch TV for a while." Jiang Ou said warmly.
"Watching TV without turning on the sound?" Jiang Tian asked again.
"It's a bit noisy." Jiang Ou said.
She was sitting on the couch, with a large blank space beside her. Jiang Tian bent down and put down the glass, but sat on the single sofa.
This was actually his subconscious move, and he didn't mean to make people uncomfortable on purpose. But that's what makes it even more uncomfortable.
Jiang Ou turned his head away and blinked a few times quickly. When the sour feeling was suppressed, she turned around and said to Jiang Tian, "Xiao Tian, is it hard to live here?"
Jiang Tian was silent for a moment and said, "The dormitory is convenient."
See, even asking him so bluntly, even though the answer was obvious, he chose something less hurtful, albeit in a hard tone.
Jiang Ou looked at the silent image on the TV, his nose was a little red. After a long time, she said in a hoarse voice, "I've been thinking about how many things I did wrong in the past for the past two years."
"If it's not so strong, take a step back, or I'll just let you in a little bit more, be less busy for a few days, stay at home a bit longer, don't send you to your grandma, and spend a bit more time with you, will it be the other way around? It looks like it."
"I dreamed that day, when you were a child. Two or three years old? I was just in kindergarten. I was very afraid that you would stare at me, and I would not be able to leave. So every time I want to go out, I have to wait. while you sleep."
At that time, Jiang Ou had a shirt with ribbons on the cuffs, which were usually knotted. There were a few times that the knot came apart inexplicably, and she was quite puzzled.
It was later discovered that it was Jiang Tiannong.
At that time, Jiang Tian was very young, and she would sit next to her during naps with her hands on his side. Jiang Tian closed his eyes and grabbed the ribbon and wrapped it around his fingers.
When he first discovered it, Jiang Ou thought it was a child's quirk of sleeping, and he had to hold something in his hand.
One day later, she waited for Jiang Tian to fall asleep and was about to go out. When she got up, the ribbon tightened. Seeing that she was about to pull it away from her grasped hand, the sleeping child suddenly opened her eyes.
It wasn't until that day that Jiang Ou knew that it was not a quirk, it was just that the child wanted to catch her, wanted her to stay longer, and wanted to know when she left, not that she would never find anyone as soon as she opened her eyes.
Jiang Tian wanted to say "I don't remember", but it would probably make people sad to say it, so he just pursed his lips and listened quietly.
"Your uncle Sheng told me about Xiaowang when he was a child. I sometimes listen to it and think that he is actually a little like you when you were a child. Maybe children are all the same. He was raised like that, and you were raised by me. It became like this."
"Sometimes I see him chatting with people and laughing, playing jokes with his dad, and thinking, if I took care of you in a different way, would you be happier and laugh more? Play a bit of a joke."
Jiang Tian didn't look at her.
He is always not very good at dealing with people who are about to cry, especially Jiang Ou who is about to cry. His eyes fell on the TV screen, and he said quietly for a moment, "There's no need to think about that."
Jiang Ou suddenly stopped talking.
"You said before that you want to resume work when you have time." Jiang Tian said, "That's good."
Jiang Ou didn't speak for a while. She was very strong in nature, but she was stunned by various things. She changed from a person who runs around every day to a person who guards the kitchen and TV every day.
"I can work anytime." She finally said, "I don't want to see my son carry suitcases alone and live elsewhere."
She said: "I've watched it so many times that I'm sick."
There was another silence in the living room, the lights and shadows on the TV flickered, and the characters came and went.
"This time is different." Jiang Tian finally took his eyes off the silent film.
Jiang Ou didn't react, she froze for a moment and asked: "What's the difference?"
Jiang Tian glanced somewhere upstairs and said, "Not alone."
Someone was with me this time.
Sheng Wang slept with his head down until it was bright, and then followed the sound of the alarm clock and found his phone in the corner of the quilt. He hesitated for a while, but finally opened WeChat.
Sheng Mingyang, who was accustomed to long-windedness, didn't speak all night, and only sent a "OK" when he got up this morning.
He said, "Listen to you this time."
They submitted their application for accommodation late, and the school reported that the first year of senior high school was in military training, and two cars of instructors were brought in. Currently, they are temporarily living in the boys' dormitory, filling up the vacant seats. After this wave of military training is over, the dormitory will be vacated, and students who apply late will be able to live in.
So the two lived in the white horse alley for a while longer.
Sheng Mingyang was busy with some things, and finally came back to rest for a few days. The father and son tacitly revealed the late-night voice, and each took half of the steps, and they got along harmoniously.
Jiang Ou and Jiang Tian also had some subtle changes, maintaining another balance.
Since the two children made up their minds to stay at home, Jiang Ou didn't have to stay at home every day. She proposed again that she could help, this time Sheng Mingyang took a step back, and the two negotiated and arranged the time. Residential students in the attached middle school have monthly vacations, and they only need to ensure that they are at home for a few days.
In this way, there will be less guilt, but it will appear that you spend a lot more time with each other.
This pieced together family seems to have found the most suitable model, and even in an occasional moment, there is a taste of happiness.
During this time, Sheng Wang was in a good mood, of course, not only because of the improvement in family relations, but also because of Jiang Tian.
Since he said that he would live on campus together that day, his relationship with Jiang Tian has gotten a step closer.
Of course, classmate Jiang was used to the cold, so he wouldn't put the words "I'm very happy" on his face. When his mouth should be poisonous, he was still very poisonous, and he didn't restrain his duplicity. But he will show some connivance in some details, not showing the mountains and dew, like a kind of secret intimacy.
Sheng Wang didn't know whether Jiang Tian treated the old man Ding the same way and the cat called "the head of the regiment" at the time. There seemed to be some differences.
Anyway, he enjoyed it anyway.
Once the young man is in a good mood, the corners of his brows and lips will shine.
Gao Tianyang hangs out with him every day, it's hard not to pay attention. He once joked with Sheng Wang after a run, "As far as your recent state is concerned, in ancient times, it would be at the level of the four major happy events. After a long drought, there is a rainy season, when you meet an old friend in a foreign land, when the wedding room is full of candles, and when the golden list is inscribed. How are you, brother?"
Sheng Wang was at a loss when asked.
He was sweating on his forehead, and was about to grab Jiang Tian's ice water. Hearing this, he asked in confusion, "What state? Which state? You drank early in the morning? Why are you talking nonsense."
Gao Tianyang, the 250-year-old, was very cooperative, and he performed a drunken madness with his hair thrown on the spot.
Sheng Wang didn't understand the meaning of those words that day, let alone him, Gao Tianyang himself just said it casually.
The heat in the late summer was very long, and the hot flashes were sultry. It was not until the fall of autumn rain in late September that the weather suddenly turned cold.
The first high school military training came to the end, and he occupied the playground all morning to perform reporting performances, and the slogans were shouted loudly. The run between classes in the second and third year of high school was cancelled for one day, and many students sipped their drinks and watched the fun outside the barbed wire.
Sheng Wang went to Xile to buy water. On the way back, he was caught by Gao Tianyang and Song Sirui, and was dragged into the crowd of onlookers.
He was not interested in performances, so he glanced at him and shouted, and then started WeChat with Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian: The dormitory is lined up
Stickers: true or false? how do you know
Jiang Tian: Lao He gave me the key
Sticker: Which room
Jiang Tian: 601, Building 2
Stickers: what does it look like
Jiang Tian sent a picture of an envelope containing a key, and the envelope said "2 Building 601".
sticker:…
Sticker: I don't know how long these words are
Sticker: I asked what the dorm was like
Jiang Tian: I don't know
Jiang Tian: You can take a look at the next section of physics
sticker:…
Sticker: I don't want to die
Sticker: I have the keys, when can I move in
Jiang Tian: Self-study tonight
Sheng Wang sent three rock and roll emojis in a row.
He raised his eyes during the chat, and happened to meet Song Sirui's curious eyes, not only curious, but also with a hint of gossip.
Sheng Wang raised his eyebrows at him, swept towards the playground again, and typed quickly with his thumb.
Sticker: I was kidnapped by Gao Tianyang and Lao Song and forced me to watch the military training report performance
Jiang Tian: What kind of performance
Jiang Tian: Negroes kicking straight
He made a rare joke, Sheng Wang grabbed the phone and laughed for a long time, just as he was about to reply, he was suddenly elbowed.
"Why?" Sheng Wang raised his head and saw Gao Tianyang covered his head and said, "It's too late."
In the next second, a hand stretched out from a tricky angle and took Sheng Wang's phone away with lightning speed. Sheng Wang subconsciously resisted, but failed, he just pressed the side button to lock the screen.
I rely on.
Xu big mouth!
The director of the Political and Religious Office, who came out of nowhere, was holding Sheng Wang's mobile phone.
"You're very bold!" Xu Dazui sneered, "It's so ostentatious on the road, I'm afraid I can't see it, right?"
It is useless to make excuses when people get stolen goods.
Sheng Wang touched the tip of his nose and smirked, ready to bow his head to admit his mistake.
Unexpectedly, Xu Dazui took a few steps outside the crowd and waved at him and said, "Come here."
Sheng Wang followed obediently and walked to an empty corner opposite the boulevard before Xu Dazui stopped.
He put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, stared at Sheng Wang with a scrutiny, and saw that Sheng Wang was a little hairy.
"What happened to the teacher?"
"Did you fall in love early?" Xu Dazui looked serious.
Sheng Wang: "Ah???"
Xu Dazui looked at him suspiciously, as if he wanted to see some flaws in his face. After a long while, he corrected his expression again and said in a relaxed tone: "You are at an age where everything is new and you want to try everything. Originally, it is easier to attract attention, and some girls are also more courageous and are in a rebellious period, so they may show some good feelings, and there is no shortage of excellent ones."
Sheng Wang was full of question marks.
Xu Dazui was still saying: "... The teachers are also at this age, which is understandable. But—"
"It's not teacher, you wait." Sheng Wang stopped him, a little dumbfounded, "Did someone sue you blind, why do you think I'm in a relationship?"
Xu Dazui squinted his eyes and asked, "Who did you just send a message to?"
Sheng Wang subconsciously choked: "No one."
Xu Dazui's expression became more subtle.
Sheng Wang said: "Jiang Tian."
"Impossible, I caught too many puppy loves." Xu Dazui vowed, "Don't play tricks with the teacher."
Sheng Wang was stunned for a moment.
So Xu Dazui saw him chatting and mistakenly thought he was in a puppy love
The moment he reacted, Sheng Wang felt a little ridiculous. But after a few seconds, he remembered it again, and his heart skipped a beat. It's like stepping on the steps accidentally, or being scratched lightly in the palm of your hand.
"You unlocked your phone and I'll take a look." Xu Dazui held the phone in front of him.
Sheng Wang's fingers that were hanging by his side curled up.
"Hurry up," Xu Dazui urged.
Sheng Wang raised his hand and pressed it, and the screen immediately lit up. The WeChat chat box had not been cut, and the other party's name was clearly displayed on the top.
"Okay, it's really Jiang Tian." Xu Dazui breathed a sigh of relief, "That's my fault, but what I just said can still be used as a reminder that students should always focus on learning. You are excellent, I hope You can go through the last two years of high school smoothly and well without being distracted by other things."
His starting point was good, he said a lot of truths in earnest, and then left with his mobile phone.
Ke Shengwang didn't move.
The wind swept down from the branches of the forest, with the coolness of early autumn.
Gao Tianyang trotted over from the playground and patted Sheng Wang's shoulder: "What are you doing, Brother Sheng, Big Mouth is gone?"
"Huh?" As soon as Sheng Wang returned to his senses, he seemed to be taken aback. But soon he relaxed again and said, "Well, let's go."
