Sometimes people really can't persuade. Gu Ping was originally a ridicule, but she was even more sad when she heard it.
He couldn't hear her crying, but seeing her shoulder twitching more and more, he was really helpless: "Yanyan?" He pulled her over and hugged her, "What's the matter?"
She squeezed between his arms and cried for a long time, finally red eyes, and slowly told him the matter.
To the effect, the grandmother has been intermittent in these years, and has paid off a lot of debts for his father, but the largest creditor is too large to do anything. Fortunately, that family was an old colleague of his father in the factory.
In the first two years, I was more tolerant, but the debt was owed for seven or eight years, and even the best friends had torn their faces, and the family came over many times. At first he went to the house his father had rented, but later he simply came to see his grandma. At that time, Lu Bei encountered a vicious couple who was collecting debts. Without asking the reason, he had a fight with that man.
Over the years, the court has also mediated, and the old neighbors have also discussed it, leaving her with too many unbearable memories.
She understands the principle of repaying the debts of fathers and sons. She wanted to wait until after graduation to save enough money to pay back, but she didn't expect grandma's illness to make things more complicated. Grandma didn't know how much money she had left for her medical treatment. In fact, this was Tong Yan's selfish intention. She wanted to secretly put the money in Gu Ping's life to save some living expenses for her old age.
Besides, she also has to consider the chance of recurrence of cancer in the elderly.
Gu Pingsheng went to the bathroom and rinsed a towel with warm water, unscrewed it, and wiped her face clean. During the whole process of her speaking, he watched her quietly, waited until she had finished all the words, lay on her back on the bed, and patted his arm.
Tong Yanxin understood, lay down and leaned in his arms.
"These things need to be resolved, it's just a matter of time," he closed his eyes and rested in a gentle tone, "Since the father's debt is paid, the old man's money is no longer needed. I will give your father 300,000 this weekend. "
Tong Yan put his hands on the bed and wanted to sit up.
But he stretched out his arm around his body and stuck it in front of him: "You don't have to fight with me, all I have is yours." His chin was pressed on top of her head, and he would rub her as he spoke. Hair, "Today, my assistant and I learned the word'except for gold and jade, but among them'. I am actually in such a situation. It seems to be good, but when you really live together, you will know the real shortcomings. Just now I opened the door and came in. , I really feel distressed when I see you crying."
He paused for a few seconds and repeated: "It really hurts."
A passage not only misinterpreted the meaning of the idiom, but also made it so sad.
She understood that he was talking not only emotionally, but also physical feelings. Wrapped around his waist, and through the thin cloth, she wrote sorry on his back with her fingers.
She thought about it quietly for two days. As Gu Pingsheng said, this matter already exists, and it's just a matter of time and time to be solved. Physical illness can be cured, but heart disease is difficult to cure. If grandma is thinking about it all day long, it will affect the body.
In the end, she accepted Gu Pingsheng's suggestion to pay the money back for her father.
"If you give the money to my dad directly, I'm afraid he will go to the stock market..." Tong Yan's eyes were a little evasive. If she was embarrassed, she never thought that one day she would say it, "It's better to pay them back in person and give the IOU. Take back."
"Well, I have a very important meeting on Saturday morning. I will go home to pick you up when it's over and go with you."
"Shall I go by myself?"
She never wanted him to face the cold words of others.
The answer is of course no.
Fortunately, the situation is much better than she thought. No matter how many disputes there have been, after all, someone personally brought 300,000 yuan to make up for the debt that has almost become a heart disease. That father's former colleague even told Tong Yan with great regret that your father used to be a very good person, but he changed as soon as he came into contact with stocks.
Tong Yan smiled silently, unwilling to say one more word.
In the lobby of the bank, there were many queuing signs, and four people sat in a row, keeping an embarrassing silence. The polite and mechanical electronic horns rang. Some people stood up from the waiting area, and others couldn't wait. They squeezed the number paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can, got up and left.
She counted the numbers, and silently prayed that it would be her turn soon, transfer the money sooner, and end the matter sooner.
He patted the back of her hand comfortingly.
Tong Yan smiled. When he wanted to ask him if he wanted to go out and get some breath, someone suddenly said from behind them: "Mr. Gu?" The voice hesitated, and even couldn't believe it. Tong Yan looked back, and Gu Pingsheng followed her movements to look over, and unexpectedly recognized the boy standing behind them: "Dong Xiaofeng?"
The boy named Dong Xiaofeng agreed and stared at the faces of the two people.
Dad's colleague suddenly stood up, smiled and said, "Do you know Xiaofeng?"
The boy hummed: "...It's my university teacher."
"University teacher?" The creditor couldn't believe it. After reacting for a while, he finally smiled and said to Gu Pingsheng and Tong Yan who stood up, "I'm sorry, this is my nephew... Teacher, don't mind. Just go. The next time I went to Tong Yan’s house... When I stopped by, I ran into a bastard and beat me into the hospital. This time I was afraid that I would also encounter a gangster, so I called my nephew to help. I want to know that it’s a college teacher. Don't let him come."
The wife of the colleague also stood up, winked at the man, and smiled.
The family tried their best to show good, probably because they were afraid that Gu Ping would embarrass the boy at school after his birthday.
She listened to the explanation of that dad's colleague desperately, but she did not dare to look at Pingsheng's face. He only heard a few words to respond, and there was nothing wrong with it. If he hadn't shook his hand quietly, she would have fled.
It was a cruel coincidence that put him in such an embarrassing situation.
Finally, after completing the formalities, she no longer felt relieved, on the contrary, she was even more depressed.
The bank was very close to his school. On the way back, Gu Pingsheng suddenly said that he was going to the school to get some materials. The two men turned along the sidewalk into the school gate and walked to the hospital office.
There are not many students on the campus on weekends, and there are still a few places of snow that has long condensed into ice camels in the corners of the flower beds on the roadside.
She put both hands in the pockets of the down jacket, and followed Gu Ping. She lowered her head and walked. When she heard the sound of basketball hitting the ground, she suddenly walked to the basketball court with him.
In the six home courts, people were shooting in twos and threes. The most striking thing is that on the right side, there are a few big boys wearing sports shorts and tops, playing three-on-three in the cold wind. There were a lot of people around the court, some who were jumping around, covering their faces to keep out the wind, and shouting for cheer, and others who moved a blackboard decently and remembered their scores.
"The game in your hospital?" She recognized some familiar faces.
"It's a school competition. The law school of this school is larger than yours. There are seven to eight classes in each session, so an internal basketball game will be organized first."
"Our school? That was your previous school," Tong Yan was inexplicably jealous, "Hey, some people forget their roots after they get to the top law school in China."
Gu Pingsheng looked at her for a while, and pondered slightly: "Are you jealous as my student?"
She said something of course.
Several students have found them and waved in excitement. Teacher Gu screamed, as if they were all surprised that he was watching the basketball game in the college. Gu Pingsheng walked over and asked them with a smile, "Who won?"
"Now it's the second class," the student in charge of scoring turned through the notebook, "but the juniors have not yet started the competition. It is estimated that the seniors will compete on behalf of the academy in the end."
"Does Teacher Gu play basketball?" The people resting on the sidelines poured a few mouthfuls of mineral water.
"Yes," Gu Pingsheng casually made a shooting gesture, "I often played basketball as a pastime in college." Very beautiful action. Even Tong Yan, a basketball layman, can see that his posture is not bluffing. .
The students around suddenly became lively, booing a few resting people to play with Teacher Gu.
"Ms. Gu, we played politely and didn't need a referee. How about the number of goals?"
The student knew that he could not hear, so naturally thought of an effective way.
Gu Ping had nothing to do in life. He emphasized that he could only practice with them for ten minutes, and then took off the down jacket and handed it to Tong Yan. When she took off her glasses, she quietly grabbed the corner of his clothes and asked silently. Him: Really
"Occasionally for ten minutes, there will be no problem," he put his glasses into her hand. "I heard Zihao say that domestic college girls especially like boys who can play basketball?"
After he said this, he only pressed the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't hide his good mood.
"It seems to be true," Tong Yan was touched by his smile and recalled sensibly, "I also watched many basketball games, all of which were specially recruited by school basketball. What a pity, if I fell in love at that time One, there will be no later you."
"Really?" He smiled calmly.
A basketball just happened to be thrown over, and he received the ball with one hand and went straight off the court.
Tong Yan stood among a bunch of female students and watched the game facing the sunshine, as if he was not a respectable doctor or a university teacher since I knew him. It is rare to see him so dynamic. It was still a three-on-three game. He wore a thin shirt and mixed with a few boys in sleeveless sportswear.
Perhaps because of the cold weather, there was no activity at first, and his feeling of holding the ball was a bit jerky. But it was only a minute or two later, it seemed to become the main force, constantly making mid-range and three-pointers.
Every turn, take off, and pass.
They are all so eye-catching.
Looking against the light, it seems that there is always sunlight around him, blurring the boundaries of his body, warm and soft.
"Little Madam," the girl leaning against her couldn't help but gossip, "Did you completely fall in love with Teacher Gu when you saw Teacher Gu playing basketball?" Tong Yan pretended to sigh and whispered: "Unfortunately , This is also the first time I have watched him play basketball..."
Gu Ping was definitely a restrained person. Seeing Tong Yan gave him a gesture to remind him that the time was up, he immediately stopped the basketball in his hand.
After the game, Tong Yan was still immersed in the images of his wonderful shooting. After handing him a wet tissue, he turned his head slightly and looked at him like an idol.
"What's the matter?" He took it.
"I have to say that you play basketball not only well, but also very suitable for watching."
He laughed, wiped his hands with a tissue, and joked: "Are you very glad that I didn't fall in love with anyone, but insisted on waiting for me?"
