Still, Wait For Me

Chapter 67: dowry

Views:

Most of the routes taken by the green leather trains are remote, with hills and fields in front of us, and sometimes weeds hit the windows of the trains. The interior of the trains is crowded, noisy, and even smells bad. The conductors push the trains to and fro with difficulty.

Someone in the car is peddling a dishwashing artifact. If you don't need this, he actually has other artifacts.

Huang Yaming, Fu Cheng, Song Ni and Fang Yunyao were playing cards on the train.

Because Jianhai Province is mountainous and hilly, the train is always passing through various caves of different lengths. Every time his eyes dim, Huang Yaming starts to throw or steal cards from the table secretly, so he always wins.

Fang Yunyao was in a hurry to lose, the phone rang several times and didn't bother to pick it up, she just picked it up to look at it, then cut it off, and finally turned off the phone.

Xu Tingsheng and Apple were on the side, chatting while playing flying chess.

The little boy sitting next to him was watching while biting a banana. Apple teased the kid for a while, and then chatted with his parents. Fell asleep with folded arms.

They have been on this train for four days and four nights, coming out of a remote city to work.

Apple hugged the smelly and dirty little boy in his lap, without a trace of reluctance, coaxed and teased him hard, and took out various snacks for him to eat.

Xu Tingsheng watched from the side with a smile.

"Help," Apple said.

"Um?"

"Looks like he's going to pee."

"... If you don't help, you can't even urinate. How can you be a mother in the future?"

Then Apple carried the child through the crowd to the toilet, and came back ten minutes later with a smug look on his face, as if he had accomplished a great event.

Among the four players playing cards, Fang Yunyao started to win and kept winning.

Once after she finished playing the cards, Huang Yaming went to turn over the cards in Fu Cheng's hand, and said in grief and indignation: "This card can't be played, it's too dark, someone is holding Wang Bo and refuses to let it go. After a junior passed, the three took the second out."

Fu Cheng explained: "I don't know that she can play out the next five cards at once."

Huang Yaming said: "Go away, the last game just started, I was holding a lot of cards, you will blow me up as soon as I play a cue, and you will blow me up again later when I play a hook, it makes me almost doubt life." gone."

Several people laughed together, and the little boy in Apple's arms also giggled.

Huang Yaming said to Xu Tingsheng: "Substitute, you come, otherwise this card can't be played, this is not called playing cards, it's just a confession..."

When Xu Tingsheng sat in Fu Cheng's seat, there were only two white rabbit milk candies left in front of him, and Fang Yunyao and Huang Yaming had a whole pile in front of them. Xu Tingsheng said, "Don't worry, let me help you win it back."

Then when the train passed through the cave, there was an extra card-stealing hand on the table.

Xu Tingsheng and Huang Yaming collided fiercely for a while, and finally reached a tacit understanding. Soon, the two girls lost all the toffee on the table.

This car traveled for more than 7 hours, and at the end they were tired from playing, and they leaned on each other to fall asleep. Xu Tingsheng took the little boy from Apple's hand and said, "I'll coax you, you can also sleep for a while."

Apple smiled slyly, and said to the little boy: "Be good, baby, play with daddy for a while, and sleep with mommy."

Xu Tingsheng countered and said: "Let the baby eat before going to bed, baby, come, eat grandma."

Apple kicked under the table, then ignored Xu Tingsheng and went to sleep.

The bad thing is, the little boy started to keep saying to Xu Tingsheng: "Grandma, grandma...". His hands scratched and scratched Xu Tingsheng's chest.

Also, he was going to pee again, Xu Tingsheng looked at the sleeping child's parents and Apple, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and complete the first time in his life to pee.

As the train approached Jiannan, Xu Tingsheng woke up everyone one by one, and the little boy's parents also woke up, chatted a few words, and gratefully stuffed him with a package of dried sweet potatoes, a specialty of his hometown.

Xu Tingsheng invited everyone to dinner that night. When he invited his roommates yesterday, he didn't call Huang Yaming and the others.

After eating, Xu Tingsheng took them around Jiannan City again.

Familiar places, familiar people, but Xu Tingsheng couldn't tell Huang Yaming or Fu Cheng. At that time, I rented the small building in front of me. Every time you two bastards come to take the civil service exam, I have to arrange everything. You have to come here for a few days when you pass by, have you all forgotten

Huang Yaming also dug out the old underwear of the former female tenant from the cracks in the toilet wall.

I don't know if she lives in it now.

I really want to see what she looks like. After all, Huang Yaming had a lot of fantasies because of the large size of her underwear. What if she is a big dinosaur...

Early the next morning, the six returned to Libei by car.

Fang Yunyao returned to her hometown in Hunan on the afternoon of the day she returned to Libei. During the entire 10.1 holiday, this girl who has been living alone for many years will spend at home with her parents.

So Fu Cheng had no choice but to follow Xu Tingsheng and Song Ni to help in the supermarket.

Huang Yaming made an appointment with Tan Qingling more than a dozen times, and only made an appointment once. The two had a brief chat, and Tan Qingling went back. Huang Yaming felt that she was under a lot of pressure, so he was naturally considerate.

It's just that Xu Tingsheng has already smelled something different.

Tan Qingling doesn't love Huang Yaming, and when he is not around, he takes good care of him, and when his aura fades in the final stage of his senior year, everything changes.

During this time they attended several class reunions together.

Xu Tingsheng accidentally saw Ye Yingjing once at a party, and once saw Wu Yuewei in the supermarket.

Apple has been staying with the elderly at his grandmother's house, and Xu Tingsheng visited once as promised.

The old man's eyes are almost completely invisible, and he lives alone in a small, low, dark house. When it's meal time, Apple's aunts will take turns to put a bowl of rice in front of the old man.

Xu Tingsheng and Apple helped the old man walk around and bask in the sun, one on the left and one on the right.

The old man's name was Apple Xiaoni, and she took Xu Tingsheng's hand and said, "Good boy, be good to Xiaoni, be good to Xiaoni...Hello Xiaoni, you have to be nice to Xiaoni."

Apple said privately to Xu Tingsheng: "Grandma has forgotten my age, maybe she thinks I'm married, don't mind... Also, don't let grandma touch your chin, or grandma will say, mouth He has no hair on his face, he can't do things well, and the little man is not reliable... Grandpa has a beard and passed away a few years ago."

In this way, when grandma came to touch Xu Tingsheng's face, Xu Tingsheng had no choice but to open his chin, hold the old man's hand and say, "Don't worry, grandma, I will treat Xiaoni well."

Xu Tingsheng helped to cook a meal for Apple and grandma. The man who lived alone for 7 years in his previous life is still quite good at cooking. Not only did Apple get excited when he ate it, but even grandma ate more. I ate half a bowl of rice.

Apple sent Xu Tingsheng away from the small mountain village, and said at the intersection:

"Grandma's life is not good, and my mother's life is also very hard. I want to let my mother no longer have to work like that after I graduate, so I can take my grandma out... I don't know if she can survive until then.

So, I have always hoped that I would be useful... In fact, being useful means having money, right? …

So I used to always think that I must go to a good university, but I can't study... Then I found that I can't do anything except being beautiful, so I thought, because of being beautiful, I must marry a rich man, and then live a happy life. A better life... At that time, I was very annoying, right? "

Xu Tingsheng shook his head very seriously, his understanding is actually like this, it's the same as what Apple said.

He can't proudly deny the significance of money in this society, such as the difficult life he had with his mother and sister in his previous life, for example, the reason why he chose to leave Xiang Ning in the end was to hope that she would live a better life instead of being dragged down by himself. suffer.

Very vulgar and very true logic, money, if you have money, Xu Tingsheng's fate in his previous life may change, and that love will not be cast into tragedy by Xu Tingsheng himself.

Perhaps, there will be no such rebirth.

"You promised grandma, but you are not allowed to cheat." Apple said.

"Um?"

"Be good to Xiaoni."

"Okay, when Xiaoni gets married one day, someone you love and who also loves you, I will prepare a big dowry for you, so big that you can't imagine."

The hidden meaning of this sentence is actually hurtful, but these days, Xu Tingsheng knows that he has unknowingly indulged his relationship with Apple to a critical point, and if he goes any further, he will not be able to turn around.

You will mistake yourself and others.

Therefore, he had to cut the mess quickly.

Xu Tingsheng thought that Apple would be sad, and he was ready to face her sadness and even tears cruelly.

But Apple said: "A dowry wants to send me away, it's beautiful...

You make good money, and then it's all mine...

Alas, for the sake of a better life in the future, let me let you be arrogant now... When one day you fall in love with me, my old lady will pay you back a hundred times, and torture you to death... Hmph. "
